SOUTHERN H. O .A. HLTO 1ST, EDITOR AND P B 0 T R I X T 0 B. Tuesday, September 10, 1878. 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.

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 nobler flight* Energy, industry, and 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.
