I shall hold my duty done, and feel my mission to the high presence well fulfilled, and if I can picture him to meet your scorn, and point to your avoidance the political huckster through whom the nation is in travail, and the republic suffers shame. The demagogue is no new figure in the galleries of history. He was in at the start and he will doubtless be in at the mighty force. Sometimes he climbs to Congress and sometimes higher still, but wherever runs his life away it is veined with a selfishness as stout and strong as the - corded cable that holds a vessel in Atlantic storm—an active, busy, hust ling, baneful figure in the politics of nations, wasting in scheming enough of energy to .work wonders of reform, and in rascality enough of daring to reach an honest fame—a sorrowful and shame ful figure with public spirit shrunken to a pimple and selfishness swollen to tumor in liis heart. The antethesis ol' patriotism, I hold him up to civic scorn a publicist without a principle, and citizen without an anchor in the truth. I call you to witness, ye thoughtful men who have gone out from this Uni versity, and touched elbow with all the consorts of decay ,• that this spirit of the demagogue is the steadiest foe to pro nalist who is no less anJ statesman. than the orator to power. But name one man like this, and the heart of each hearer will go out in tender protest toward some big- brnined and noble fellow of the mould and fiber of a statesman, borne down in politics be fore some smiling mediocrity who al us, with a greater share of that power which in all the ages of the world had won battles of forum and of fields. Surely these are great and surpass ing questions. Surely nothing less than statesmanship, nothing lower than patriotism, should be brought to their lied his relations, corralled the expect- discussion, and as they front us—deli ant gratitude of friends, tickled the I nite and vast—like peaks of Jara rising multitudes with tlie straw of some cur-1 through clouds of mist—surely it is rent craze, cried some popular sliibbo- | time, m? countrymen, to rise in the letli, or sailed in—-God save the mark!

It is as sadly true as it is truly sad that the majority of winners in tlie political contests of the day suc ceed rather by cunning thau by merit, and that the manipulation of conven tions, the traffic in votes and the combi nations of strength upon commercial bases, outrank as winning forces those old fashioned qualities of ability, integ rity and comprehensive courage by which men mounted in the davs of old to usefulness and fame. And if this be true at all, it is truer now than ever be fore in the annals of the government. I am no pessimist, etc. NVhat then is a man to do who is not- framed to nourish in these ways? NVhat is left for the statesman who lacks the palaver oft he politician? NVhat is the outlook for a gentleman teo proud to pander t® sentiments lower than his own, too honest to barter convictions for votes, and too high-minded to trade his country’s offices for gain? Shall any voice be found to say, "‘let him give place.

Hem i ■ linen of a virtuous citizen as —- on goverment. ne fashions broad poli cies, and devises safe method for the con duct of the state. He addresses himself to patriotic reason and enlists the higher springs of human actions to sustain his views. Dignity, sincerity and unselfish ness enfold him, and lifting the white flag of truth above his cause, the patriot hears it to honorable triumph or car ries it with equal temper to unsliamed defeat. Ever opposite to this man, stands the Demagogue. He does not look to the zeus from the service of the State. Let us contemplate these evils drifting from his way. I have shown you the methods by which the demagogue of the wards works his-way to triumph. Tlie cheap appeals to passions, the plea of preju dice, the stirring of the masses, the hoodwinking of the classes, ami the red rags before the faces of the great unwash ed. Sometimes—thank heaven! this rot of tlemagogtigy fails, and the people raise rebellion in their eominon sense. I have shown yon that the resources of the huckster are ample for this hour of trial. The demagogue who perished in chicanery is born again in hriliery, and corruption is regnant where prej udice held sway. Men who habitually follow error go* naturally along with falsehood, and from the guidance of ig- Li riimr rir>r t«h noble passions fall easily into the way ° r avarice, until general corruption .f the state.

His policy of campaign involves the lower inpulses which stir his own purpose and actuate his life. , He lias no Itigh argument to address the reason, no noble sentinent to reach the soul,and, for lack of these, he rakes the ashes of bitterness, and quickens the passion anil prejudice of a class. Envy and spite and discontent are stirred to the service of his hope, and • where sophistry has failed him, and prejudice is impotent and passion dull, he gathers his energy for the final rush, directs his weapon to ward the pocket of the mob, and mam mon winds it way where patriots might come to hold their suffrage at a price, and yearly sell the blood-bought heri tage of battle for a mess of pottage— worse than Esau’s gain. The germ of political corruption began in the strug gles of the wards. It flourished first among the heelers and workers ami hummers ami plugs who served as strikers for the higher demagogues.

Alas that men of nobler calibre, answering the question in a sadder strain, should wrap themselves in dignity aud retire.to the the professions, which leaves the demagogue to do his perfect work. The-e little English sparrows, push ing and unscrupulous little upstarts— wallowing in dirt, and bullying all the day, have pre-empted the streets and the groves and driven the natives to the woods. Even so good men and noble tongues have gone down to obscurity before the noisy demagogue, just as the song birds of the grove, noble plum- aged and full of melody,have tied to the forest solitudes before the swarming insolence and dirt of this dust-grimed Hcion of English Ornithocracy. It is enough to have traced the sinu ous course of this twisting figure of the wards.

There are great questions looming up against the horizon of the future. There are brave words that must be spoked without truculency and without fear in that grand new capitol at At lanta, and beneath the historic dome of that greater capitol at Washington. In the great crena of the nation must lie debated the issue that involves the integrity of raee and the safety of re publican institutions. Both of these are fronted with alarming «menace in the swarming immigrants and isms from across the seas. How . shall we amalgamate this mighty foreign element of discord and communism and revolu tion into the virtuous body of our gov ernment without an absorption of the damnable evils that cohere ? And when shall the importation of these insoluble elements have an end ? Already one brave and splendid citizen, linked here after to patriotic fame, has smiled into the face of frowning demagogue, and called a halt to the great horde of mon grel strangers knocking at onr gates, even while he rebuked the arrogant presumption that would have raised an alien ' banner above the eyrie of our star spangled flag. In the broad unfearing spirit of tlie states man Hewitt, welcoming every worthy immigrant and barring every murder ous ism, must this great problem be solved and answered. Between the blue of the arching skies and the teeming hills and fertile valleys of the present South there hovers the dark shadow of a sombre and surpassing problem. The wisdom of ;God higher than our own, has set it for the solution of our people, and to this mighty prob lem of the alien raees the young’men of the South must bend themselves with the cojdness of reason, the inspiration of necessity, the fearlessness of states manship, and compass it with the grand travail of patriotic sacrifice. One man at least who sits within the circle of this presence has rea lized the issue that strikes deeper than any theory of poli tics and rises higher than the grasp of partisanary. Into his big soul, lumi Jessie Gotier (colored),, who killed Green Sapp, was tried and convicted of murder at Waynesboro and on Saturday was sentenced by Judge Roney to hang and on Aug. 9. Mat Jackson goes to the penitentiary for life for the murder of Cye Cooper. Mr. Floyd Ross, Macon, Ga.,'says: I have used Bradycrotine for Sick Head ache several times, aud in each instance have been relieved in fifteen minutes after takin ?. The Reason Why Ayer’s Pills are so popular is, that while always reliable as a cathartic medicine, they never leave otfp ill effects. .This is because.they are purely vegetable, and entirely free from calo mel or any other dangerous drug. In all cases, therefore, whether the patient be old or young, they may be confi dently administered. In the Southern and Western States, * where derangements of the liver are so general, Ayer’s Pills have proved an in estimable blessing. D. NY. Baine, New Berne, N. C., writes: “ I suffered a long time with stomach and liver troubles. I tried various rem edies, but received no benefit until 1 commenced taking Ayer’s Pills. These pills benefited me at once, I took them regularly for a few months, and my health was completely restored.” Throughout New England, next to lung diseases, Stomach and Bowel Complaints are the most prevalent. Dyspepsia and Constipation are almost universal. Mr. Gallocher, a practical chemist, of Boxbuiy, Moss., who was long troubled with Dyspepsia, writes: “A friend induced me *o try Ayer’s Pills, andt after taking one box without much benefit, I was disposed to quit them; but be urged perseverance, and, before I had finished the second box, I began to experience relief. I continued taking them, at intervals, until I had used eleven boxes. Suffice it to say, that I am now a well man, and grateful to your chemistry, which outstrips mine.” B Y virtue of an order of the Judge of the Su- pe ior Court of larke couuty.we, tlie under signed, the receivers appointed in* the above, stated case,will sell before th« Courthouse door of 11-rkc couuty in Athens,^a., within the legal ho irs of sale on the 17th day of July,1889, to the highest and best bidder, forcasb, the following property, to-wit: All the property anl assets of all Kinds now held or owned i>y the defend ant, the Class c City Street Railway Company, and consisting principally of the track of said company, as now laid in said city, belngabout 2 miles long; and f ur passenger cars and tbe fr nohlses of he said company a« contained in an act of Geucral Assembly of Georgia, approv ed September 3 th, 1885.
