The present political status very clearly presents the atitudo of the two great par ties that arc making desperate ctlbrts for the complete mastery of the situation. The struggle that is now going on between the Democratic party and the Kenubliean party is the same contest that lias been fought over and over again between the va rious political parties through all the shift ing scenes of the times since the first for mation of our Government. Kven before the adoption of the Federal Constitution, thero were two parties : one known as the party of popular rights, the other as the party of centralisation. The first were in clined to oppose the adoption of the Con stitution because it was too centralizing, in their opinion, the latter because it was not centralizing enough. In the debates over these questions it clearly appears that •the Federal Constitution was adopted on the express idea that the Government was •to be one of popular rights, of constitu tional limitations, of reserved rights of the States, or. as it hRS been beautifully said : It should be otic as the ocean, distinct as the waves ; one os the general Government, distinct and separate as the sovereign States. These principles being thus engrafted on the constitutional law, became a part of our system, a cardinal feature of our <>ov ernincnt. War came, and deluged our land, but it did not alter the form of our Government, neither did it destroy a single principle. The contest has been waged long and desperate between the overthrow of great principles of our Government and the defense of those principles. These principles have been overthrown and trampled under feet by a fanatic pnrtizan ism, hut like the great principles of inagna cliarta. they arise from beneath the vandal feet of those who would trample them out forever. The continuation of this great struggle for the overthrow of principles, as we have said, and the defense of them, . culminates in the great issue formed be tween the parties over the appropriation bills in Congress. The main question is, whether wo are to have free elections, whether American freemen shall be allow ed to go quietly, voluntarily, without mo-! lcstatiou from any source whatever, to the ballot-box and deposit their votes for the candidate of their choice, or whether they shall be held under the dominating force and influence of bristling bayonets, and in a great many cases, he driven like sheep to the shambles, to vote to sustain in power the very authorities that thus robs them of .their most precious rights? Upon this plain, simple question of lib erty on the one side and tne most high handed oppression on the other, the two great parties have planted themselves. The party of pence- the party that believes in the doctrine of ffec elections—passes the bill in every form to prohibit the army from the polls, and as often as it is done, i the head of the Republican party, in the person of Mr. Hayes, vetoes the bill. The question at issue occurs to us as fraught with more dangerous consequences than any ever presented during the history of our Republic. The people nt the polls, it is true, will rise with indignation at the dagger thrust upon their liberties, but the United States army will he marshaled into line to stiHe and thwart the fruits of their patriotic efforts, l'ublic feeling must be aroused, the great voice of American free men must speak in thunder tones against the lowering dangers that threaten, or the bright star of our grand Republic will sink forever beneath the purple tide of despot ism, and free elections will be a thing ot the • past. A FOOLISH COCK. A few days ago. in the United States Senate, old Znchariah Chandler undertook to reply to the great speecli of Senator 'Hill. After pouring forth his torrents of splenetic hate upon the South, by which sectional animosities might be aroused, and •the “ second sober thoughts,” which are fast becoming the governing principles of the great masses of our people, could be checked, he strided the col loss us and quot ed the mystic writing oil the walls which Daniel interpreted for the ancient king as applicable in its significance to the pres ent position of the Democratic party. The old Michigander, in predicting that the Democratic party is on the verge of over throw, has given the country a fine illus tration of tile foolish cock, who, mistaking the rising of the sun for the setting there of, tlew up on his dung-hili to roost and gnvo a shrill crow at tho fading, glimmer ing landscape of the day. The old gentleman from the lakes has rented forth a sad requiem over the last lingering rays of the Democratic party, when in reality it was the glorious, mag niticent rays of the rising suu that lie took :to be the gold-crested splendors of its set iting. A lew years in the future will cer itainly enable liim to realize his fatal inis ■take. DRESS rONVF>TIO>. The annual Convention of Georgia edi tors convened at. Cartersvillc last week. An excellent address of welcome was de livered by Major Charles 11. Smith, u/ws Bill Arp, the great Georgia humorist, which was responded to by Capt. I'. M. Peeples, of the Lavricnccvillc Herald. Wo regret that circumstances were such that we could not be on hand, but arc pleased that Cartersvillc fully sustained her laurels in the way of hospitality, and the press gang had quite an enjoyable period of rest and recreation. After passing a few days and taking an excursion over the Cherokee K. R. and feasting on the bounteous hospi tality of the people ut Cartersvillc, the Convention adjourned to meet in its next annual session at Cuthbert. The annual assembling together of the members of the press is Doth pleasant and profitable. \\ hile there is usually no busi ness of importance to transact, yet the interchange ol'views and the acquaintances and associations formed promote the cause of journalism. W hat Christmas times, with the egg-nogg and persimmon beer was to the old darkies in ye olden times, such is the annual meeting ol the press-gang, when after long days and months of ar duous labor, they can throw aside care and toil aud pass a few days of hi!ariou„ enjoy ment.

There is considerable feeling being man ifested among the members of the Baptist Church, the Chureh, in every respect, seems to be wanner than it has been for years. It lias connected with it a nourishing and quite a promising Sunday School. This great manifestation of brotherly love has been attributed by some to a seemingly insignificant incident, which 1 will relate: About the 25th of January. Prof. John A. Rives, who is still in Elbcrton and who has located here a singing school, at this Church, by his suavity of manner, and earnestness in the prosecution of his work, got the members of the Church interested in music, the most of them contributed freely to the support of the school, and they became greatly interested in its suc cess. It did succeed, and it is the opinion of many thet the institution of the singing is what brought about this result. Tell me, (), miiso, for thou or none can tell, The mystic powers that iu blessed numbers dwell. Wc are soon to have another house of worship. The Presbyterian Church is to be completed before and dedicated on the 2d Sabbath in next month. The sermon from their pastor last Sabbath excited great interest in the cause, and the dedica tion will be looked forward to with pleas ure and delight, it has been some time since this Church was begun ; however, the members deserve great credit for having done so well as they have, there being so i few Presbyterians at this place. May hap piness and prosperity bo with them. Every breeze brings with it some soft strain of music. Flies are getting to be very bad. Oh. for a Mapping machine to Map them off with. Straw hats and blue coats !—Gosh, how the boys are pleased. Everything off Saturday for Toccoa— Sunday School excursion. Look out for veils, and parasols ! *• Where are those negroes going?” “ To hear the band, of course.” This question I is propounded and answered fifty times every Saturday. Ilush !

Wc have a man in town that, if his dig j nitv was turned into electricity, would make a splendid illuminator for the whole town. Audiar. A l)unftrrou Torpor. Torpor or inactivity of the kidneys is se riously dangerous to those organs, since it is the precedent of diseases which destroy their substance and endanger life. This sluggishness may be overcome by stimu lating them, not excessively, but moder ately, an effect produced by Hostetter’s Stomach Bitters, a general invigorant and alterative, possessing diuretic properties of no common order. The impetus which this admirable medicine gives to their eva cuutivc function counteracts any tendency to congestion which may exist in their tis sues. Both they ami their associate organ, the bladder, are invigorated as well as gently stimulated by the Bitters, which ex erts a kindred influence upon the stomach, liver and bowels, and by strengthening the system, enables it to withstand malarial epidemics, to which when exposed it might otherwise succumb.
