From tho Uhirago IlornM.
Even iu Georgia, whore the re
publicans arc scarcer than lien’s
teeth, the negro is ignored hy Ids
own party. The few federal oilleo-
holders, camp-followers, nnd jay
hawkers huvo no use for him
They do not even care for his
vote, for they make no pretense of
keeping up a local organization
They want the otllces which are
parceled out at Washington, and
to tbe end that no new livals limy
appear they keep tbo negro in the
hack-ground. There ia a quarrel
now between these men and the
blacks concerning the represents,
tion of the state at Chicago. The
whites want nn entire white dele-
gntinn, but tho colored politicians
insist on representation. Just how
the dispute will be settled remains
to be seen.
As busring on his controversy a
call Just issued by tiro white repub
licans ol tbo state lor a mass eon
vent-ion possesses a good deal of
interest. This remarkable paper ia
not addressed to the people, hut
to ‘‘the white men of Georgia,” and
in no placo does it so much as men
tion the colored race. It is signed
by Jonathan Noreross, General
Longstrcet, William Maikt am, J.
C. Freeman and other republicans
who teem to have cut loose entirely
front the blacks and set up a party
of their own on tho color-line.
Is it surprising that the south Is
solidly democratic under these clr.
curas'nnecs?' Tito great mass of
tho people from whom the republi
can party might draw its voles Is
without leadership, organization,
or spirit. The patronage which
tho party has to bestow is monopo
lized by a few white men who have
no ntllliulion with the colored race,
and who arc quite ns hostile to it
ns arc tbo democrats. 1’otsesrcd
of all the honors and emoluments
which the party has to bestow,
these wirepullers have the eflrontery
to call a convention of‘white men”
in a stale one-hall of whoso popifo
Intion is black. This iaa lepuhli-
can, and not a democratic call,and
is issued in n state where 91) per
cent of the people who might he
interested are blacks. It is about
lime for tho republican party, at ft
exists at the north, to spread itself
out over the entire conniry or re
tire from business.

Messrs. R’Q. Houstwa, B. R- John-
son, George McMillan and W. K.
Roberts, west en a deer hunt in
the Alapaba river swamp about
three miles from towu. After tak
ing their respective “stands” Mr.

miles to ‘’drive” np the swamp.
When he was nesr the B. A W. Ry
bridge which crosses the Alapaha
three miles east ef this place, os
bis return an immense rattlesnake
sprang from the brush, and buried
its fangs in the calf of his left leg.
He at once called for help, and
fortunately Mr. J. P. Loyd, seotiea
master, who was having some work
done near, heard and responded to
his call. By the lime Mr. Loyd,
reached him, Mr. Houston's leg be
low the knee was swollen to twice
ita usual size and he was suffering
vory great pain. Mr. L. bound a
ligature around the leg abort the
knee, and then boarded hie band
car to come to Alapnha for a phy
sician. Dr Fogle was soon fonnd
and hastened to the scene of suffer
ing. When they reached Mr.
Houston’s side, wonderful to relate
lie was fonnd sleeping sweetly and
the swelling almost gone irom his
leg. Around him were lying about
a ball bushel 6f dead mosquitoes,
who bad drawn the poison from
him. These gentlemen, in great
surprise, aroused Mr. Houston,
who, barring a little weakness from
tiro loss qf blood was ts well as he
ever was. This isa wonderful story
and some may be inclined, jnst as
we were, to doubt-it at first, but
we nrc personally acquainted with
all the parties mentioned except
Mr. Houston, and we do not be
lieve they would vouch for a eeor, ,
