Not on account of its importance, nor for its effect upon the people outside of his Dis trict, bat on account of its g'aring and wholesale misrepresentations tin we propose to notice the letter of Mr. Felton. This remarkable paper will he taken by the people of the Hi venth District as do the inhabitants of Utah accept the declarations of John Smith, or any other "apostle’— as an oracle of undoubted sanctity It will he used by his partisans as the text from which many a political harangue will tie elimina ted. Indeed, the friends of the Grand Tycoon will cow lustily over the vain glorious ebullition. Nor will this be all. Disappointed office-seekers and ambitious demagogues all over the State will take it up, and in the next election it will play no inconsiderable part. Why ? Because, it just row chimes in very nicely with their notions, and also because they believe it is a wave wli ch will prove sufficient to waft them into < ffice. The sober, intelligent, solid, compact masses of true, unpurchusahle Democrats of Georgia should be proud of that letter. They will know now where to (ind its author, llereto'ore he has professed to be a Demo crat. Now, however, le bus thrown of! the mu k and plunts himself squarely on tire same platform with Akerman, j.c. bryatit, and other lesser would-be lights of the Republican party. 'TLere is where he is now lie no longer attempts to hunt with the hounds or run with the hare; and it is supposed that the price of this step is the Domination by the Republicans for Gov ernor. But whut tfleet will this letter have gen erally? Outside of Felton’s District it will have no visible influence—none what ever. Of course it will direct the col ored Radicals, and white ones too, more closely to him; but the Democrats will be solidified against him, for the brazen effront ery patent in every sentence, und I lie glaring impertinence which crops out in every para- gtapli warns them that the time is coming when this man will, like Gov. Brown on a former occasion, make an effort to array the colored voters against the whites, that amid the excitement he may ride into power. This is what it will do. It will reunite the Democracy fiimer than ever, that should such a crisis come due and ample prepara tion will have been made. We suppose that when Felton returns to Washington, Garfield, nnl other Radical leaders will welcome him with open arms ; and this "Democratic member from Georgia" will a tale unfold of the feeble und disturbed condition of the Democracy here. It will doubtless be “hale fellow well met"—a nest of unclean birds—u gatheiing of vultures, whose insatiate cravings aie never satisfied Garfield will rejoice; and by his direction, and at the crack of his whip, the faithful henchmen will rally around to p.ay homage to the distinguished renegade. For the man who honestly and conscien tiously cuts loose from party and votes in dependently, ns his own best judgment may delate, Thk Weekly cherishes respect; but for such as Felton, whose only motive is sordid gain at ull costs, we entertain the most unmitigated scorn. ’There are a num ber of citizens lure in Henry who, from the purest motives, have ret used on more than one occasion to act with the Democrats, ns n party, and yet no grosser insult could be offered them than the uecu salion of being in fellowship with ihe inch of which this polit ical nttllius fithus is an acknowledged leader. 'They ure honest. 'They are true to Georgia. 'They were in the ranks when tbe Stale was at war, and now they are lor Georgia, but belong to no political organiz itioo. We part with Felton without a tear. Let him go. He has never benefit it'd the party or tbe State, nud we note bis departure with out the slightest feeling of regret. And when his name comes before tbe people ot Georgia as the Radical candidate lor Gov ernor let it be received w ith hisses aud con tumely so hitter aud withering that eveu Ins egotism and vauity will sink beneath it. ’That is the only way of treating men of his ilk, aud the only means we feel assured that will eaure him to hide his head iu shame and disgrace. Denies it. — Captaiu Burke, of the G. C. U„ denies that his men sang anything about "hanging Jell Davis,” etc., during the trip Northward. This denial was unneces sary, as uo one ever imagined such an ex hibition of bad taste could come even from a "down easier." No one need btlieve the story. The Guards uru composed of better material than that. The Central —President Wadley, in his annual report to the stockholders of the Central Railroad and Bauking Company, makes a very gratifying showing. The receipts for the current year is put down at $2,824,546 G 2 ; expenses, $1 G16.3J1 11 leuviug net, well managed iu'ievery way.

Two terms are enough for Grunt ; one term would be too much for Tildcn. And in another place, in the same paper, he says : If we ore to have a dictator and bow our necks to shy lock rule, give us Grant in preference to u hard money Democrat, and let us go tbe whole hog or none. O, congruity, thou art a bijou. Lotteries —The following righteous deci sion will meet very general approval. There is no business which has such a charm as that o< dealing in lotteries, and this determi nation to pot it down will result in much good : The Pot master Genera! has decided that all lottery companies and their agents are doing a fraudulent business within the pur view of his statutory powers. He has there fore. ordered that no postal orders or regis tered letter-, known to he addressed to such dealers, shall be delivered, but shall be re turned to the senders sta r.ped "Fraudulent.’’ A Worthy Kxample.—’This item affords a pleasant idea of the way colored persons can get along. If they wonld imitate Geor gia’s example instead of running after and licking the heels of Radical speakers, of both colors, how much better they wou'd live. Let them try it and see for themselves : When thrifty freedmen are spok*>n of, we wonld not have George 11. Butt, near Bu-na Vista, forgotten. He is a good farmer, a consistent churchman, lives independently, has good credi', takps daily and weekly newspapers, and is u noble example for bis race —Buena Vista. Argus. Col.

Krv. Felton’s D. I). L«*tt«*r. As we hnve said the letter of Rev. W. H. Felton. I>. I)., as it appeared in the New York Times, does not place that gentleman fairly and -quarelv in the attitude of an avowed Radical. We hud been led to be lieve und Imped that he had at last boldly thrown ofl the mask of Democracy with which he has heretofore mvested himself, and that lie had revealed himself in his true col ors—iho-e of an out nnd-ont Radical parti san. But Rev Dr Felton has not yet en tirely lost his cunning. He does not Del altogether satisfied that he is sufficiently mas ter ol the situation to ri-k such a venture, so he recogr.iz’s the necessity of, as yet, feel ing his way cautiously along, lie therefore begins his letter wiih the assertion that he is “a Jeffersonian Democrat,”and then goes on, insidiously and artfully, to bring the Na tional Democracy into all possible disrepute, evidently hoping that bv adopting this course he ean accomplish more harm to the Demo cratic and more good for the Republican party than if he boldly avowed himself a foe to the one and a friend to the other. ’Tlie vaulting cunning of Rev. Mr. Felton, I). l>., Inis this time o’erleapt itself, however, mid his true designs stand so plainly revealed that they cannot deceive even the simplest mind. He stands before the people of his District as one whose only principle is to al ways be on the strongest side, so as to secure personal advantage, und we Imve every rea son to believe that many hone-t men, hitherto gulled by bis specious cry of “Independent Democrat,” and who Imve thoughtlessly given him tbeir support, will have their eyes open ed, und will heneeforlh refuse to udhere to him. The t’olumbus Enquirer Sun, for in stance, which at the lust electiou heartily advocated the cause of the reverend politi cian, now sees und acknowledges its mistake and now as heartily denounces him * * * e trust thnt all those honest Democrats of Georgia who have iu the past, like tho En quircr-Sun, been deluded iuio wandering uwuy from the true fold to run after Inde pendent false gods will see the error of tbeir way equally us plainly as does that journal. They may now realize exactly what Inde pendent ism is; that it merely means being independent of all principle, and living with au eye single to personal aggraudiz ment ami uotliing else, and that its coarse leads direct ly into the embraces of Radicalism. We trust also that like the Enquner, they will determine hereafter to recognize the Demo cratic principle that the majority rules, that organization is necessary to success, and that the decree of the majority, uttered in c<m veutiou, should be binding upon the party. They have seen Boss Kelly, one model In dependent Democrat, so called, deliberately hand the g cut State of New York over to the Radicals, aud they nny sec the great danger of the same thing being done in Georgia by Boss Felton, D. 1)., aud those of bis ilk, if their disorganizing counsels are folio wed, and they aie accorded popular suppo. t aud eoeourageuieut. —Savannah Eews. Congressman Felton's Letter. We supported, lo the be-t of our ability. Dr. Felton in tbe last race, when he sadly needed friends, because we believed him a belter Democrat than his opponent. He wou. We are against this letter, which is the ouly anti-Democratic utterance we have heard trout our State. The writer is wholly, unutterably mistaken. We may have d.ffer races between degrees of Democracy, but when it comes lo Republicanism or Democ racy, the latter will overwhelmingly triumph It has come to this pa-s that those not wiih us are again.-t us. The great Democratic heart if Georgia beats firm and true to friends und faith, a id be is false who pretends it is otherwise. Dr. Felton falsifies his State, and does not represent even u minor ity.

(Lorgia is Democratic to the corr, as Dr Felton will find to his cost in tbe next race If s leMer at this inopportune occasion has killed his political prospects a d givt n a blow to independent ism tha>*it will not recover from. We will hereafter eh'>ose men we can trns', who will know when to pneonrage friends and not dishearten them as Dr Felton has done. We will cling closer around our cause. We will nominate men who will be true to no clique or ring, but to the State; no Independents hut hon est Democrats, who can say yes and no and mean it. and elect them. We must have those strong natures which inspiie confi dence. 'The money question is nothing in our State. There Dr. Felton again misrep resents ns. 'I he silver business disturbs the people not an iota. They are content with monetary affairs. The issue of silver has never been a matter of primary importance to our people. In this Representative Fel ton misrepresents ns. In not one single iota except as an individual, ean he claim to act tor us His letter, coming as it does, is a libel npon the sentiment of communities. He speaks for none but himself, and this he will be shown by be ng allowed to remain at home after tbe next Congressional election. * * * We know of no document written at such a time as the present which will tend more to unite firmly the regular Democ racy than this Felton letter. Georgia can not afford to vote for those who so foully misrepresent her people as the author of such sentiments. We would rather have an open foe than the one who gives encourage ment to the enemy in the time of peril. The Felton letter invites Republicanism to make any und every advunee. Georgians must rally to the Democratic colors aud reject false advLers.— Columbus Enquirer. The Atlanta Boom for Grant —lt seems that a real Grant boom has hroken out in Atlanta We at first thought onr friends of the Constitution were sky-larking with ns—that the Grant boom was one of Harris’ or Grady’s jokes. It turns out. however, to be no joke. Gut a rather seri ous Atlanta sensation. We can’t deny that there is such a thing as a Grant boom in Atlanta. With shame and mortification we confess tbe humiliating tact But beg our Northern Democratic friends to bear in mind that although Atlanta is Ihe greatest, ♦he fastest, and the loudest town in Georgia, it is not Georgia. 'There is no such thing as a Georgia boom for Grant. — Sa vannah News. Gen Toombs telegraphed to Gen. Grant that he was ready to fight again. We think Mr. 'Toombs might have improved the opportunity he had to fight Yankees du ring the last war better than he did ; be sides he ought to remember the opportunity he lost in that line wher. he blustered around ex-Gov. Joe Brown, and Joseph made him draw in his horns.

Ralph. ‘‘Truth is Mighty aud will Pre vail.” Owing to a press of busiuess I was unable to prepare a reply to Mr. Hill in time for last week’s paper, and return to the attack now only for the purpose of substantiating some of the charges specified in previous papers. 'This I deem necessary for the reason that the points at issue have been made a question of veracity between Hill and my self; and in order that every unprejudiced mind may not be wholly dependent upon my bare statement for the truth, aud a clear understanding of tbe matter, and that they may be disabused of any erroneous impres siou which Hill’s imaginative utterances have created, 1 offer herewith, in support of my charges, evidence Uial cannot be contro verted . As Mr. Hill fails to furnish tbe public with a copy of the false charges which he claims 1 caused to be preferred against him, I will assist him to the extent ot my ability, that 1 shall be doing the public a Church held at Mt. Cirme! in November last, I charged Rev. Hill with lying, and proved the charge to ihe satisfaction of all present. In conformity with the evidence, Hill was f iund guilty and reprimanded ly the pastor. Hill emphatically denies that the trial had any such result. But the evi dence of the parties whose names are at tached to the following certificate will doubtless have more weight thao Hills simple denial: “We, the undersigned, certify that we were present at Mt. Carmel M. P. Church, at the Quarterly Conference held in Novem ber, 1878. and that G. A. Hill was to our certain knowledge found guilty and repri manded bv the pastor, Rev. Hanford Moore. (Signed) "M C. White, • "B Massit. “A J. Oonkle.” In addition to the above, I stand ready and willing at any time to produce the evi dence upon which Hill was convicted. So much for Rev. Hill’s vaunted honor and truthfulness As Rev. Hill seems to think my charge of theft in taking the peas too contemptible to notice, it is not hkelv he will regard the act of entering my cornfield wi'houf permission and taking therefrom several tarns of corn, worthy of notice either Verily, the rever pnd gentleman views these little matters from an extremely elevated standpoint. Since this controversy opened, he has re turned both peas and corn, which is, 'o say the least, constructive evidence of his guilt. It i- not my purpose, nor shall I endeavor, to take up Hill’s articles and dispose of them one by one, in the order in which they appeared. 'The reward for such an under taking would not be equal to the task, light ns it might prove. 1 will simply state that I haven’t made a single assertion that I can not establish fully ; on the other hand, Hill has scarcely made a single statpmeut that I eannot disprove utterly But not wishing to weary the readers of 'The Weekly with a subject which I candidly admit should never have occupied its columns at all, I will proceed to close, and in doing so ask an in dulgent public to pardon tbe temerity which led me into a controversy with a person so utterly unworthy of notice as this mail Hill, and in return I promise never to so belittle mvself again. I have known few sorrier m*m in my life than Hill, and all that h' ean say against me will amount to nothing This opinion is shared by a majority of the good citizens of the community, and I am satis fied. A man who -steals the livery of God to serve the devil in,” would scruple at uo act of meanness, however wanton. I shall now end this controversy, so far as 1 am concerned, by printing the following certificates relative lo certain alleged acts of said IliH, whieh.it will be remembered, be stoutly denied in a recent article. That he spoke falsely in denying Ihe charges, is too appurent to admit of the slightest doubt: “1 do certify that I saw one of the Hills plowing "Bob Lee,” and at the same time another one on his back, riding, with a switch. his (Signed) “Berry I Massey.” mark “I do hereby certify that I lived on A. V. McVieker’s plane for four years, and wus treated by MeVieker as kindly and with as much respect us 1 could wish. And to my certain knowledge, what MeVieker has pub lished concerning G. A. Hill and the cluli axe is true, for I was living within 200 yards ot MeVicker’s honse and saw G. A. Hill and Phillip and Wesley going home from MeVicker’s on the morning ulluded to, G. A Hill catryiug with him his club-uxe. (Signed) “James T. Welch.” It is not likely that Hill will further deny the charges herein alluded to, in the face of such evidence, and that he stunds convicted of falsehood is manifest to every sane mind. In conclusion, l warn Hill never to come on my premises again. V\ believer he does, I would advise him to carry a ladder, for he will need it. I further warn hint to be ex tremely cautions in what be may have to say about me in fu ure. There are other remedies besides the pen that I can resort to, aod 1 shall Dot be slow to do it A V.
