For Congress 9th District.
Hon. Joel Abbott Billups.
OF MORGAN.
We call attention to tlie communi-
caii .in of Dr. King in this paper, the
purpose of which we heartily endorse,
and trust it will find a ready response
from every physician throughout the
land who appreciates the value of the
ini|M'rtant discovery made {by Dr.
Long. We will have something to
say editorially on this subject, in our
i ext issues.
The Yellow Fever Sufferers.
say, that the Radical party is dead,
or deny that in its temporarily crip
pled condition, that party, with all
the wily strategy at its command is
seeking most earnestly and assidu
ously to regain it* foot bold npon the
government, and that one of its
strongest hopes consists in the success
of the Independent movement in the
Southern State* Furthermore we
cannot believe that Mr. Speer, even
with his groat ambition to obtain n
seat in the United ’States Congress,
will question for one moment, the
fact that alone through the Buccess
of the Democracy, can the country-
hope final and permanent relief from
the evils and outrages of Radicalism.
Then the question for the people Ao
propound to Mr. Speer is, “ will he
continue the warfare upon the Radi
cal party, until the last vestige there
of, is driven irom, even a semblance,
of control in tha afFaii s of govern
ment ?” Will Mr. Speer be as earn
est nndTassiduous in his warfare upon
organized Radicalism as he is and has
been in his warfare upon organized
Democracy ?
Never before perhaps, aince the
Yellow Fever first became a scourge
of our Southern land has there ever
been such heart-rending suffering,
such unprecedented fatality as is now
being experienced by a number of
our Southern cities, from that worst
anil most dreaded of pestilences. The
disease made its appearauce much
earlier this season, than usual, and
owing to a degree of summer heat
iaielv ever before felt in ibis climate,
ilic fatality has been increased to a
most alarming and fearful exteut.
Tim accounts which are daily being
received from Memphis, New Orleans,
Vicksburg, Grenada, and other
cities, arc most heartrending, and
leave us to infer, that the real suffer
ing and distress of the inhabitants of
these disease-stricken cities beggars
all description. The last accounts
Irom Memphis state, that the num
ber c-f deaths in that city, for the
twenty-four hours ending Saturday
noon, were one hundred and three,
anil new cases for same period one
hundred and twentry-three. Physi
cians arc being stricken down with the
disease; the Board of Health has
almost been disbanded ; nurses are
scarce and cannot be obtained; but
one city officer remains on duty, in
fact nearly every organized means
Jbr the protection and relief of the
sufferers has been destroyed by the
steady, unrelenting and death pro
ducing scourge. Whole families are
left to suffer and die without the least
assistance, either by way of nursing
medical attention. The city is
now considering the propriety of
burning the dead as a sanitary and
1 recautionary measure. A11 means
looking to the checking of the ^disease
arc being resorted to, such as general
disinfection, fumigation, concussion of
the atroo-phere by firing artillery,
etc. But even these measures, owing
to the want of active persons to keep
up the effect therefrom, promise but
little hope of relief. And the fact
that n killing frost, which is
considered as the only sure check
to the disease, is many weeks off at
best, it indeed looks as it this sorely
scourged city was destined to be de-
|H>pu'isted. It has recently been dis
covered by some of the Physicians,
that continued shower baths of
cold water for reducing the fever, is
the most certain and suooessful treat
ment of the disease* but for the want
of nurses and proper assistants, even
this can only lie resorted to in com
paratively few cases. In New Or'
leans and other cities, the distress
is equally alarming, and the want of
sufficient aid almost, if not quite, as
great. Most of our Southern cities,
as well ns many cities of the Koith,
are contributing liher.illy to these
sufferers, yet the means at their hands
are yet inadequate to meet the
amount of suffering. By all means,
let every individual give all within
bis or her power, and let our city
authorities at once proceed to foatt-
guaratn such means and methods as
will both facilitate mid encourage
these donations, for never before was
there greater uced for charitable con
tributions to a suffering people, or the
bestowal thereof more praiseworthy
The Scar-Worn Candidate.
Mr. Speer, is making great boost of
his war record. Well Emory was
quite a boy, even up to the close of
the war, and of course it could not
have been expected of him, to have
been very actively engaged in the
war. But as he rises to assail the
war record of others, at the same
time trumpeting to the front his
record as a brilliant, dashing young
Reb, will be please inform an anxious
constituency, what command he be
longed to? Who was his Captain,
his regimental and brigade command
ers ? and liow many, and what fights
he was engaged in? These little
facts, might help oat a great many,
who are now trying very hard to be
lieve him to be a scar-worn veteran
ol the Confederate war.
Better Go Slow Emory.
Mr. Speer is making a fierce and
vigorous attack upon the war record
of Col. Billups. Well now, Emory
should remember that a large major
ity, if not all, of the member* of the
Gainesville Convention, who nomiua
ted Col. Billups, were old soldiers,
(none of your six months holliday
fellows) and if they were willing to
trust him ns the standard-bearer of
the Democracy in the 9th District,
he should try and stand it, notwith
standing be was out with Wheelers
Cavalry for a few weeks. Now
Emory, if you don’t mind, you will
make some of these old soldiers mad
with you for thus abusing their choice
of a candidate. The fact of the busi
ness is, yon had better let up on this
war matter, for these old Robs are
mighty sensitive about these things,
and if you get them stirred up they
are going to tell all they know, raise
the old Confederate \vavhoop,*and
make a regular charge on the 5tii of
next November.
daily vary on the New York stock-
market The good old times and
good old ways will again return, end
bring healing to many a bruised and
almost crashed straggler in the tem
pest through which we have just pas
sed. It is sometimes asked why
1668,000,000 of paper money now in
circulation is not enough, when in the
prosperous times of I860 6207,000,000
were sufficient. The answer is found
in the existence or the bankrupt law,
that has entirely destroyed character,
industry, sagacity, experience, as the
basis of credit; had substituted for
them stock collaterals on thirty or
sixty days’ papers; and had brought
the whole exchanges of the country
•to a cash basis. In ordinary times it
is estimated that the metallic circu
lation performs but one half of one
per cent, the paper circulation two
and a half per cent, of all the exchan
ges, and the balance—ninety-seven
percent.—is done by means of bills
of exchange, promissory notes, ac
counts, book credits, and the clearing
houses. Banish or unduly lessen
these latter, and frightful panic en
sues. There appears to be no money,
although the quantity of paper niont
oy is enlarged. The gold and silver
and paper moqey canuot sustain the
burden thrown upon them, and then
oome hard times, pressure, insolven
cy; a frightful shrinkage of all prop
erties; rain, bankruptcies, and ap*
pareutly, no money; and all this
growing out of a bankrupt act that
has murdered credit. We can re
joice that all this will now change—
slowly, perhaps, but as surely as the
(iist faint streaks of light in the east
ern sky herald the approaching day
with all its sunshine and gladness. It
is wondious, the effect of a single
law upon the habits, the customs,
the feelings, the comfort, the very
life of a people. This law of bank
ruptcy, by killing all credit, has
robbed the poor, crippled enterprise,
made Integrity, character, and ex
[lerience of no avail; lias stopped oar
furnaces aud manufactories, been the
fruitful mother of tramps, and filled
the laud with the wailings of distress
and want, more extensive and endur
ing than a battle between great na-
lions. For those who have been
comi>elled to lake the advantage of
the law we have no other feeling but
sympathy; it was their only escape
from pecuniary ruin, brought about
not by their own improvidence or
went of honesty, but the direct or
indirect action of the bankrupt law
itself. We can now all together re
joice at, and see and enjoy the im
provement following the repeal of the
law. The motion ol the engiue is
reversed. We go forward, not liack-
ward.” H. C. C.

But How Now, Mr. Speer?
Mr. Sjdser with apparent delight
and with much emphasis not tiufre-
qtien'.ly of late allude* to how he
once stood by tho organized Democ
racy and bow vigorously he fonght
Radicalism. Well this is very true
of Emory, and it was at a time when
every Democrat in the country was
prom) of bin) and his course. But
bow now? Mr. Speer has been edit
ing the Sontln-m Watchman for
nearly one year and lias been making
public speeches throughout the 9tb
< Congressional District for nearly, if
l.ot quite, two years, and if he has
:u> \ where in his writings or speeches,
made the slightest attack npon, or
said r.uglit against Radicalism we
have tailed to seo or hear of it. Bnt
during all this servioe as journalist
and public speaker, he has been on-
ceasing and unrelenting in his attacks
upon, and abuse of the Democratic
party.
Mr. Speer we apprehend will not
deny the fact, that the greet wrong,
suffering and oppression which has
lieen brought upon our country,
came of the corruption and misrule of
Radical'*™- Nor will he pretend to
(From the Kichmon Dispatch.]
The following which we clip from
the Baltimore Dispatch, is from the
able pen of a Virginia gentleman well
known to us, and as he haa so fully
expressed our view*and in so much
abler manner than we conld have done,
we gladly reproduce it in our columns.
“It is surprising that the New York
journals, conducted usually with con
sidenble intelligence, should make
such reraarkable'mistakes on the effect
of leading political questions. This
was illustrated last year in regard to
the effect of the remonetization of sil
ver, which they said would seriously
disturbe all financial operations. They
predicted a rise in gold and a fall in
Government bonds: and yet their
predictions of evil were falsified by the
result. Now they speak of the bank-
rapt act as a measure in the interest
of credit, and suggest great disturb
ance from the withdrawal of credit,
consequent upon the repeal of the act.
Can the explanation of Ibis singular
want of judgment lie found in their
want of candor? If any proposition
is plain it is that the bankrupt act,
both vcluntarv and involuntary, was
a standing menace to credit during its
existence—to the 1st of September,
when, fortunately, it expiies. We
have for it no groans, no rejoicings.
Bury the dead. Let the living come
out and rejoice. We are now to find
the missing (actor, tb» loss of which
has so aatuuished and bewildered wri
ters during the last ten years. That
missing factor is confidence. The
good old time will slowly return.
Confidence in oureelver, • confidence
in each other, a sense of responsibility
and self-reliance growing out of the
consciousness that we can trust and
be trusted without the fear of volun
tary or involuntary bankruptcy, with
its frightful expose of empty schedules
or assets wasted in the bankrupt court.
Its ret urn my be slow. It will take
some time for the future to divest
itself completely of the livery of the
past. But come it will, and that
right speedily. Men will find that
they can lend to each other without
the fear of receiving a bankrupt notice
in discharge of the loan. An honest
man can meet his engagements by
others meeting their engagements to
him. Capital wiU come from its hi-
ding-places. The enterprise of the
nation will plume itself for higher aid

What The People Want to
Know.
With whom or with what party
does Mr. Speer projiose to act in the
event, bu should be elected to Con
gress ? There are or will be but two
parties in Congress, the Democrats
Radicals. If he proposes to act inde
pendently ol both these parlies and
play a “lone hand,’’ of course he will be
powerless to affect any good for his
constituency. If he iulends acting
and Votiug with the Democratic par
ty, then wnat can be bis purpose or
the consistency in fighting that party
at home and tlieu falling into ranks
should he be elected to Congress?
If he proposes to act and vote
with the Radical party, why just let
him come out and say so, that the
voters of the 9tb District may know
exactly where he stands. It is neither
fair nor just to the people to leave the
least doubt in their tninds as to this
all important matter, especially,
the safety to the country against
continued and ruinous Radicalism do
pends altogether njioii a thorough,
solid, unfaltering and unwavering
Democratic power in the next House
of Representative* Come out then,
both in justice to yourself and to
your people and take a fair, square
8tund in these matters, and not be
trying to ride into office aslradlo
both the Democratic and the Radical
party. Such an attempt can only
result in your own political downfall,
for we tell you, the people at this
critical hour in their political history,
are not going to risk a doubtful and
experimental departure in politics,
merely to gratify the ambition of a
Congressional a-qiiraut. Be true to
yourselves, to yonr people and tS
your country, and then you will
surely and ii'-cegsarily be true to that
parly wliieli has brought us safely
thus far, alone through u liii-h the
country can hope its political redenij
tion, and alone through which you
may hope some day to be successful.

from liver disease, Dispep.-ia and
Headache, have been cared by Me
roll’s Hepatine, is uo longer a doubt.
It cures Headache in twenty minutes,
and there is no question but what it is
the most wondertul discoveiy made in
medical science. Those afflicted with
Biliousness and Liver Complaint
should use Merrell’s Hepatine.

A Gentle Hist.—In our style ol
climate, with its sudden changes of
temperature—rain, wind and sunshine
often intermingled in a single day—it
is no wonder that our children, friends
and relatives are so frequently taken
from us by neglected colds, half the
deaths resulting directly from this
cause. A bottle of Boschee’s German
Syrup kept about your home for im
mediate use will prevent serious sick
ness, a large doctor’s bill, aud |>erbape
death, by the use of three or four doses.
For curing Consumption, Hemorrhages
Pneumonia, Severe Coughs, Croup or
any disease of the Throat or Lungs, its
success is simpfe wonderful, as your
druggist will tell you. German Srrup
is now sold in every town and village
