Singing sweet Anthems in the sky.

HOU IS IT !
Mail's. Editor* —The political campaign is about
opening—the Democrats have their man in the field,
anti now we may expect the National Union, built of
a portion of the timbers of the old compromise plat
form of 1850, to have their man also in the field.—
Ottr man has been in the field for four months, gain
in'.l golden opinions wherever he has been; and we j
now expect that the other “oi'fja/iizrition” may place
their man before the people, unless they combine
with the Patriots, recently assembled at Columbus. ’
But after hearing a portion of Mr. Stephens’ letter,
and being worn out with the cndles.-. replies and re-j
joinders produced by that document—after reading
the proceedings of the Columbus ‘‘Patriot*,” Mr.
Toombs’Manifesto from Boston, and finally Mr. Jenk
ins'letter “to a friend.” 1 am constrained to ask,
“How is it?” that in all of these, not one word is said
about grogshops, their degrading influence upon
public and private morals, and the patriotism ot those
who arc struggling to put them down. Only one of
the whole has mentioned that party, (Mr. Jenkins)
and he speaks of it as an “/istor-tittimi” whose mo-!
tries and feelings he >o much respects as not to per
mit himself to place it in the political category. The
writer is one of Mr. .I."’ warmest admirers, and hith
erto one of his staunchest supporters, and really feels
that so far as his signature is concerned, a Prohibit
ory Law would be safe were he in the Executive
Chair of the State. But Mr. J. and Gov. Johnson
turned their backs upon the question in the last
campaign, and when two gentlemen of such com
manding talents, such exceeding great moral worth
in the private walks of life, with bo many admiring
friends in every sphere. \kk vin.vin, publicly, to de
nounce a Traffic which they, as lawyers of extensive
practice, know exerts a baleful influence on society,

bers of the Temperance Convention, the Democrat

when it meets; look around you in your ow n neigh

two political parties; who they stand most in dread
of: and then notice who compose the Prohibition
party; who they stand most in dread of, and when
you have done all this, draw your conclusions and
vote accordingly.
It is time for the people to think, and to act too,

such others of equal worth, as will present them

I IVOKI) FROM HOHTIIIKA DIVISION, \n. OH.
Mew*. Editor* < tur Division has hitherto been
so modest, that her merits have never been exhibit
ed to public view, through the columns of the Ban
ner. And she is, even now, fearful that the charge
of ostentation will he urged against her, if she pa
rades herself too conspicuously before the public.—
But be that as it may, she hopes that her success so
far, and the present happy condition of her prospects,
will afford encouragement, to some loss fortunate Sis
ter Division, to emulate her prosperity, and will,
moreover, cause rejoicing among those who can boast
ofwqual prosperity.
She numbers nearly seventy, steady, honorable,
substantial members ; the majority of whom are tried
soldiers, and all fully bent on the extermination, if
possible-, of the great evil of Drunkenness. This has
been her standing number for some years back
though initiations are frequent and expulsions very
rare; yet the migratory habits of the people of Geor
gia is the cause of her not steadily increasing to
greater numbers. < >nc other fact reflects credit upon
lfowchika Division. It i- now nearly seven years
since she was organized, and there has not yet been
the time when she failed to have a regular meeting.
So far as her pecuniary condition is concerned, that
is of the brightest character. The large and com
modious Temperance Hall is paid for, and the lower
story [laving rent more than the interest of the, orig
inal cost of the building. She also has a large re
served fund on hand, to meet such contingencies as
may hereafter happen, the increase of which is ap
plied from time to time in such benevolent objects
as art presented to the notice of the brotherhood.
This happv financial condition has enabled her to re
duce the quarterly di - -of members, to a mere nom
inal sum.

MR. OVKRII
• ietitl, Reader, we wish to say ,i few words to you i
about your best friend we moan Mr. Overby, the ‘
Prohibition candidate for Governor. “What,” some
one will say. ‘‘is Mr. Overby iny friend?“ Unison,
ot your best friends; he is now fighting your most
hated and ruinous enemy, “King Vlcohol”
\\ e wish yon to remoo her him at the polls, its (>c
tol'er. If you doubt bis being a friend to you, gnash
the drunkard, as he i- toileting .>n the brinks of an
awful Eternity; as death stands plainly before him,
and his ruined and damned soul is ready to leave his
bloated body and enter a world of untold iniacrv!
Go ask the mother of a drunkard, as she weeps over
him: go ask his father—go a-h his wife, whom he
has insulted, abused ami rendered an object of pity.
Go ask tho convict of the penitentiary for what crime
he was sent there, and who is his best friend. All—
all will answer, “It. 11. Overby.” Mr. Overby wotild
t.if elected Governor) bean honorlo Georgia. He is
a man of a bright and towering intellect—a man of a
spotless character, of great moral courage, lie lias
unfurled tho banner of prohibition from your moun
tains to your seaboard ; it bangs out plainly to view,
and its motto inscribed upon it, “in letters of living
light,’ A o opposition car, </*Ur him.from thecon tret.
Religion, Truth, Virtue and Morality fight by his
side’ Though his enemies swarm upon tho battle
field ns thickly as the locusts of Egypt, yet he will
light. ‘‘Victory is given not alone to numbers but
to the vigilant, the active, the brave.” The pa
triot, Christian and philanthropist w ill flock around
his standard ! \\ ho is it that will not join in this
holy warfare ‘: W oso ignorant as not to know that
our cause is a just and righteous one V Who so hard
hearted ns to -ay aught against it: Whoso blind ns
not to see the many strong tie- of friendship broken
asunder, the many bright hopes blasted forever, the
many loving hearts sunk down in sorrow and despair
by intemperance? Oh! even now, in this moonlit
summer night, l almost bear the cry of the orphan tor
bread ; the groan- ot its broken hearted mother; the
blasphemy of the bacchanalian, borne on the w ings
of the wind! Women of Georgia! this is no picture
of the imagination! All true as the word of God!
I appeal to you to enlist in this growing and glori
ous cause! Help us stive y>>ur fathers, yotirhu -
bands, and your sons! Your influence wo want
your influence we must - ami shall J xhv it -will
have! Surely Women of the Empire State of the
South will not join the enemies of the Temperance
Gause! No, never, never! Then come up boldly
to the support of our noble standard bearer 1
Men of Georgia, our candidate, as l before -aid, is
in the field, of w hom we are justly proud ‘ We
want you to rally to his support! Help us rnise
on high our banner amid the blackening clouds of
opposition t *‘Oh, help us save the sinking -hip.”
When eventide conics on, think of our standard
bearer, tis he is engaged in conflict with the enemy.
Think of him as you walk the green fields of Geor
gia, with the azure sky above, ns a patriot, Christian,
arid philanthropist. Plead his cause in your family,
and among your friends and neighbors! Declare it
in the streets and on the highways. Let us all unite
in one solid phalanx, and march bravely on; let us
all join hearts and hands and go to the polls and vote
for B. H. Overby for Governor! If you forget him
elsewhere, do not, for Religion’s sake, forget to vote
for him in October. FRED. IRVING.

Mr. Orrrby not Withdrawn. - We have been as
