GEN. JOHN B. GORDON, Os Kiri ton. Hurrah for Gordon! 9 Tho ilotnoo ratio Gubernatorial conven tion m«t in Atlanta yesterday; and while wo have not lieurd from it. wo presume, ns more tlmn two-thirds of tho delegate* wore instructed for Gordon, that ho hits roooivod tho nomination. As a demo crat, truo and loyal to tho party, wo place his name i»t oar mast head to indi cate our hourly support of tho party and tho gallant loader it has selected. Wo claim no honor for this—it is simply oar duty as a democrat; who doe* less than this ia no democrat. W o have no sympathy for. or fellowship with, those aore heads and disorganized who, be cause their favorite was not the choice of the party, now turn around and sav they |' wifi not support tho nominee. If <>ur candidate, Major Baoon, (sotto vivo, he is a good man, yet) had received the nomination, wo should have expected and we should have hud a right to ex pect tlmt all truo democrats should come cheerfully to his support. The fact of going into a convention, necessarily car- 1 Fit's along with it the idci of supporting its nomiiwn*. urhoover thut nomiuco m*y lie, unless his selection is secured by < fraudulent lueuns. Major llarou and * his friends, weut into this convention sought its nomination. Gordou won. 1 Now, Bacon and every men wlio sought 1 the nomination for him, is bound iu s honor, if bt 4 has any honor, to support Gordon. Tliis Bacon will do. So shall 1 wo. Any other course would be deuia gogury —not democracy. Ah to I>r. Felton, who never was a 1 democrat, exoept as he was whipped into I it, and*who declared publicly while ad- ' -rivaling Bacou’s claims to the notuiua liou, that he would not support Gordon 1 if uomiuated, we suppose he "ill him- ; self run against him. or procure some ' CDS els. tl> do SO. Let him. lie hill ! ,« ho* badly be sill bv UnU- CORRESPONDENCE. Mcßride. t When the lamented Iferschel S'. Jobn- I ston was appointed to tlm of ", the Middle Circuit, he advit-fd the r-iti i zens of Tat null county wlmts.tops to take t to raise the burd'-ri of taxation, and ■ |j cure obedience to the laws, as the. peo ; pie never had done before. The peo|de II believed their worthy chief, * therefore ' I they went to work to accomplish the r \ disired end, arid they never ceased their 1 endeavors until they •■ ere crowned with 1' success. ' j I know there is n big difference between r this county and Tatnnll, both in regard ! to taxation and to its citizins in obey ' ing the laws of our old commonwealth. I Besides, f know there is a great differ enco between the old the new Tat nall, for I am one of her unworthy sons. Ever since I have been in this county, I ' have paid upwards of GO per cent more | taxes than I paid in old mother Tatnall. 1 Besides, the liquor laws are not evaded ' by smuggling, at any place in Tat nail, as « ' some of the best citizens inform mo. I 1 am satisfied if old Montgomery would take the Judge’s advice, it would reduce t our taxes 50 per cent, and would reduce crime with less litigation. First do away with the hoard of County Commissioners, and let the Ordinary be - the solo guardian for the county. Bec- K ond, fill ourcounty offices with our very - best men, and if they are already filled j with such men, then keep them there . as long as they are faithful. This was I tho Judge’s advice. Would to God old Montgomery would talio it. I am op posed, anyhow, to changing our public servants every term, if they arc faithful i to the public trust; for just about tho l time they learn what to do, ns a rule, they are removed. Judgo Johnston snid, keep thorn tliero a« long as they arc faithful. Now, if our present incum bents are such, let us keep them in nf r fice. If they are not, let us see that they nro removed, and good rueu put in their places. And let us bo sure to have, at tho next sossion of tho General Assembly, our board of County Commissioners for ever abolished. Then, instead of pay , ing 75cts. and upwards on the one linn. dred dollars worth of taxable property i wo will only pay 50 cts. Ration- A'-Ruaiiy. I*. S. I have been informed that some districts are not in favor ot primary oletions, but it, seem to mo that no one would want to serve the people, in any , capacity, without tho voice of tho best ■ citizens. This district. 1 am pretty eor tain, would say primary, every time. t r Red Bluii: I will write you a few dots from here, as I don't suppose that 8.-A'-C. -feels lil o writing this morning. Tho nows Ims just reached here, that John Gurley was killed tiii.-. uiornig about ‘J o'clock, by Sonny Storey. It is a sad nlluir, to be sure. The sawyer at Loud k Beugnot’s mil Mr. Smi'li, and Saiu Culvert, are nl-out to return to the land of the north. We nro sorry they cannot remain with us, j und hope they uniy have :i pleasant jour ; uoy. Loud A LSeiiguot’s mill iinabeon turn ing out a large amount of timber lately, and the liver has favored them very i much in shipping. Weil the couipunj deserve it; they nro both clever gentle . men, uud wo wish them great success. Watermelons, vegetables nudcbicken.- are brought to the mill uearly every day by tho farmers, and wo mo always glad to see a wagon coming loaded with soun thing good for tho iuuer man. Miss Lola Anutield was the guest of Miss Alice Ri ngnot lust week. Come again Miss Lola, and let your visit bo n little longer. (.’apt. Riddle paid the place u visit on Monday. The health at Red BlniT and around the mill is very good nt present. Several new buildings have been erect ed, and the place is looking quite mill liko. Wo need a school here, and any young lady competent to teach would do | well to come among us. Run s. Fortner Scraps. Oh, so hot! is heard upou all sides. Mr. and Mrs. John Smith, of Bartow, have been visiting her father. Dr. Sher rod. Several timber ineu have just returned from Darien. They report the prices of timber very low, and say tuey are all broke. Mrs. Dawson is quitejill, having bail hemorrhage of the luugs every day for the last week, lier tunuy friends deeply sympathise with her. The babe of Luther Mood is still very low. No hope of its recovery. Wo made a visit over to Montgomery 1 last week, aud saw seme fodder that had IHH'il pulled. 1 felt right euvious, tor 1 had seen none iu Emanuel. Crops look well over there. 1 am clad that B. A C., of Re 1 Bind, like onr “serai«." so well, and srory tliev are not loug enough. But if R. A t. oulv kuew tho many cares of the wnur, tin v would wouder St their beiug even aa - lil*J .lit, tel berutv 1-' OitlUll; kick, and work—why it is from morn ’lil night. I wonder who JJ.

McGubec bas the finest 1 corn that J have seen, according to the i soil of the land, Mr. Vj. S. Calhoun and Agnstus Kent ; are now selling the patent awingletrec; ydu must all buy one. Mr. George Benton says tho girls call him “.Baby.” A shooting match at Rear Creek next | Saturday. i I believe that Mr. B. F. Calhoun has 1 the best ilccr dog that I have seen or ! bunted with. There have been as many us five rat tlesnakes killed this your, within a mile | square, near Hamilton Hill church. I am sorry that the bad casualty hap pened to Rev. John Darlev, j There nro more mosquitos in thn river j swamp this year than iiavc been for sev eral years. Brother “Land Mark” rnni-t explain sanctification thoroughly, as he says ho can do it; if he don’t the prople will know that he is a green horn himself. A Pinky Woods Boy at Homs. Flat Creek. Ed.
