§|)e |adt3on Jjcnsa. JACK soy. GA. ACC.. 9, 1882 i W. E. HARP’, - - Editor. Mr. J. F. Kiser, of the firm of M. C. A J. Fr Kiser, Atlanta Ga,, is (lend. The Henry County FTeeklv will he published nt McDonough nl'tcr this month. Archibald Brown has announced himself as a candidate for the legisla ture in Henry county. The Colquitt-Brown subsidization of the Democratic party, docs not meet with the opproval of a large number of Butts county people. Stephens will be swallowed like a cold potato in Butts coanty—indeed it will be choking. Aleck Stephens, if ho is elected, will recognize the thousands of fraud ulent hoods now Field against the and the hard worked, tax hnr (dent’d fitment and mechanics will have them to pay. Cnmpmceting begins at Shingle Roof, in Henry county, Wednesday, August ltth. A number of our people are contemplating attending and going up on the cars which passes not far from the camp ground. The Governor should not have tVe power to nppoint a single county ofll ces, in any event. The use of thia power by the present incnm'ent, in such a way as to keep himself in of fice, ought to ho conclusive on this point. We believe tho civil service in Georgia to he a'moat as corrupt as it is in Wat’' Mon —Telegraph & Messenger. What constitutes an organized democrat ? Wo bt-hanged if the late Slate convention ha* not bo be/uds died in, that we don't know which and we etaud on. Wo don't know whether we are foul, biped, quadru ped, llesdi blood, fish, Gentile, Jew, saint, devil, E'hiopian, Cancassian, or mongrel. What in the devil are we anyhow and a hat ia democracy ? We moen Simon pure for God know* we have had enough of Jeffi-r --soaian Democracy, ot the Stephen* band. Madison an: A great want in Gcoegia now ia a few scorn Democratic leaders possess <od of a little genuine manhood. There k ore two or three men in the Democrnt- Sp party, in t >e Stnto, whom the moat ®>f out so-called leaders are afraid to 'oppose- even when urged to sueli a course by self interest and considers ;r,i°i^r blio in our judgement, belotig to Senator Brown and Gov. Colquitt in a more abject sense than that in which the slaves of those men belong ed to them prior to the war. It is a humiliating truth.—Telegraph and Messenger. When Mr. Stephens begins his or*, alorical parade he ought to be lorced to show his hand aa to the candidacy of the Independent! for Congress. Neither the wretched platform, on which lie reoHuea, nor his letter of quotation! from Thomas Jeflaraon, given forth any voice on the subject. The fox should be oornered and ask od to show liia hand. Why should Demociats he forced to vote blindly when they set out to elect a govern or T Huvn't they a right to know the views of the mm for whom they are asked to vote I —Telegraph Mi e. aengor. Tho Conyers Examiner has con cluded to hoist the Gsrtrell flag. It says ; “We slut)! advocate the claims of Gen. Gsrtrell because we believe him to be the best man for tbo office, and not because of any political differ ences that exist, for we regatd Mr Stephens as a true Democrat, hut one who has never been fully organized indeed, he is the “bos* Independent of Georgia.” We regard the nomi >f,T,.t?iJ*p b " n> as a trick of C.X “liif trtKKjff'ring, for the promotion of llieir own personal scheme*, nnd, *o to apeak, have borrowed Mr. Ste phens for the occasion, and propose to uso him as a oai’s-paw." We see from a communication, in the Henry Comity Weekly, signed ly a number of the moat prominent and influential citiaena of that nouns ly, urging Col. E. J Reagan to al low the use of his name as a eandi* dale to represent Henry county in the next legislature, owing to his views favoring a prohibitory liquor law iu the State of Georgia We have known Col. Reagan from his boyhood. He is formerly ol Hook dale county where if we mistake not, he was raised, and his many friends there will be gratified, to learn of the compliment bestowed npoa him in the solicitation of the people of Hen ry county. lie was horn and reared of noble parents, the fiist and fore* must of hia former county. He is a young ruan of sterling worth, and has rose to prominence in his profes sion, that of law. We teel that it the I people of Henry see proper to en- ! dorse Col. J’ongan, on that grand and commendable pisiform “prohibition,” in him they wifi have a faithful and competent ri prc*entative. It gives us pleasure to hear our old friend , |jk< n of in this connection. Black Oak, Ala. July 22d 1882. ,Vk.

General health of the people here ii good ; crops is fine and if the seasons hold out favorable, corn will not de mand more than 85 cents per bushel at the heep, which will bo grately to tho advantage of the imigration that we are anticipating this fall from ail over tho distant countries. There am a great many who are prospecting now and buying up lands. 1 am very much pleased with our new country ; and people who are an ticipating a home on the Mountain, you should spare no time in securing a home hero, and I am satisfied you would not if you could sec this field as I have saw it.
