OIK TRADE ISSUE.
We present to onr reader*, tills
morning,our promised Trade Issue,
with the hope that it may accom
plish the good lor which it is in
tended. It is not all that we would
like it to be, hut we have f.ied in
it to set forth the resources and
advantages of Jiir country and city
in such a light as to attract the at
tention of those abroad, and culti
vate a hi'fhpr appreciation of them
at Iioiuj. d.ii ma.iks are due those
of our business men who have aid
ed ns in our work by their patron
age, and hope Hint in the extended
circulation thus given their busi
ness they may reap a rich reward
for their liberality and enterprise.
HUN. A. II. STEPHENS
The Democrat candidate for
Governor of Ueorgia is a physical
und mental wonder—a wonder that
so great a n.ind can exist in so
trail a body. Seventy years of age,
to all np|»earnnce a physical wreck,
bis mind seems ns clear and vigor
ous ns if it were the habitant of a
healthful body in its prime. With
Ins long political record It would
be strange If thn wetc not what
would seem in tliu light of pretent
events inconsistencies. lint in all
his years of public life he has been
true to his Statu and the people
ho represented, ami his counsel
has always been that of a patriot.
While many doubted the propriety
of electing ns chief magistrate a
man of such feeble frnuio, none
who heard him In this city on
Wednesday oan doubt bis mental
ability to 111! the oillce with honor
to the State and to Inmself.
juimi ifumsY "resigns.
Judge Crisp resigned his posi
tion on Lite bench this week, pre
paratory to making an active can
vass in this congressional district.
He has made a good and faithful
Judge, and during Ids term of oillce
has made many warm friends who
will regret to loau him, but hope
ill losing him ns l.heir Judge they
will find in him a faithful and con
scientious congressman, and we
linve no doubt they will. We un
derstand that Mr. ,1. A. Ansley
has been appointed to till the va
cancy.
SPECIAL NOTICE.

this issue redound to the benellt of
our people, wo would bo glad to

Judge Folgcr, the Administra

RIDAT SDI’T.. **, >80. ! the Third congressional district !
as their candidate fjr Congress:
OKNTI.F.MKX:—Your communica
tion dated 23rd or August, notify- j
ing me of my nomination ns the
Democratic candidate irom the I
Third District tojtlic Forty Eighth !
Congress, and requesting my ac- j
ccptancc of the same, came duly to !
hand, nndjl would have immediately {
neknowedged it but that until now 1 I
have been too iiKwcil to attend to
any business. I rctur/I you my
thanks for the complimentry man
ner in which you have informed
me of my nomination, and accept
die same with gratitude. It is my'
purpose to address my fellow citi
zens of eaeli comity in the District
on the political issues involved in
the campaign, and do nil that I
may to advance the interest of that
great party to which you mid 1
belong. Permit me, gentlemen, to
suggest the importance of thorough
organization of our parly; without
it we cannot succeed, with it sue-
cess is cerlain. The Republican
party are willing, anxious to sup
port any one for oillce who will
oppose die organized Democracy,
hopeless of success under the name
of Republican. Under the direc
tion of the “syndicate” they will
support, in a body,any ambitious
discontented, and disappointed
iiiati who has herefore acted with
die Democratic party; they will
permit him to call hinisclt nil “In-
d< pendent;” they will even permit
him to call himself a democrat, hut
he will oppose the organized Demo
cratic nominee, they will support
him, knowing ruli well that what
ever liis piulessions inav he, that
when clcitcd liy the Republican
vote it will not lie long before lie
will act with tlie Republican party.
In our District the great m ijority
or the Republicans are colored
men. These colored Republicans
are thoroughly organized, they
vote ns they ate directed by the
•bosses.” They seem to love to
vote in opposition to the great
body of their i^jiite n iglibors'and
friends. They draw the color line,
oppress and ostracise those of their
color who vote the Democratic,
ticket. The result is that most
of the colored people arc Repub
licans, though 1 am glad to say all
are not o. To meet lids state of
things Democrats must act togeth
er- They must organizu in each
county,‘in each town, in each Dis
trict there must lie organization.
Those Denioerals who arc disatistl-
ed with some act or action of the
party, who cannot approve nil
that lias teen done, or who arc
disappointed at the result ot some
iiommina ion, should, in view of the
momentous consequence involved
in tho defeat of their party, lay
asido nil personal feeling," look
only to the public good, and march
shoulder to shoulder witli the great
body of their neighbors and their
friends. The success of tho Re
publican party, under whatever
name it may lie distinguished,
means more plunder, moro frauds,
more taxation, more misgovern-
incut. The success of the Demo
cratic party means reduced tax
ation,economy in the administration
of alliiirs, government of our peo
ple by our people, and the triumph
of tlie virtue and intelligence of the
Slate. How then can any patriot
or lover of his country hesitate as
to which cause lie will espouse, or
which banner lie will follow '! In
union there is strength and suc
cess I In discord there is weak
ness and defeat!
Very truly your friend.

lleury Wattcrson, the Louisville i
Courier-Jo'jrnnl editor, says a I
good dinner is perfect food per- I
fcctly dressed; not a great array of ;
dishes, the best dinner lie can recall
was in the woods of Georgia dur- |
ing the war. It consisted of a
single leg of mutton, some hot
wheat bread, a little pure butter
and a half rial ot Scotch whiskey
purloined from the General's camp.
When I, in the exercise of a right that
belongs equally to every citizen, announc
ed myself a candidate for Congresa from
this district, I intended, and stiU intend,
to conduct the eanpaign upon a platform
of principles which I published—and
which I defend in all my addresses to the
voters of the district—free from any bit
terness or personalisms towards my es
teemed opponent or any one else. A far
mer myself, and thoroughly identified
in all of my interests with the producing
and laboring classes—of which the dis
trict is almost entirely composed—I had
both seen nnd felt that this great int-rest
was not as prosperous as the hard work
and self-denial of our people ought to
warrant, and the investigiUion of the
causes of their depression led me to the
conclusion that it was not so mucli the
fault and mismanagement of llie produ
cing classes as other causes, for which
they were not to blame.
The great and leading causes are:
1st. The exorbitant tuxes which they

In a few weeks wilt occur the annual

onr farmer* and planters especially, look
aronnd them and select at least ons arti

to be emphatically wliat the Association
always intended it—an exhibit of the best
of everything the land produces, in corn,
cotloo, grain, bones, mules, cows, hogs,
elc. It is gotten up for thn benefit of
the planting interests of the country, and
and it is to them they must look for suc
cess. Crowds wilt be here front a dis
tance, and the better the display the
more will Ibey be impressed with the ad
vantages of our section; and in Ibis way
offer them superior inducements to coiue

lsnda and bringing them into market, and
in building up and fostering tho greet
agricultural interests around ns. The
