Tho State R mocratio Executive 1
Committee urges you to perfect at once
vour county organizations. The elec
tion is near at hand. No time to be
lost The importance of the result
cannot be over-estimated. Represon- 1
tatives in the National Congress arc
to be chosen. They should he men of
prudence and patriotism; men who
will reflect 1~. an or the State and give
encouragement and support to that}
gallant band of Northern Democrats !
who. amid all the perils of the past, ,
have been tiu« to the country and the |
Constitution. Members of the State!
Legislature also, are to be elected. J
They should be men of integrity and
sound judgment; men whose inter-]
cats are identified with the interests of
the State; who fuel a pride in her
pastgluiy; who sympathise with her
present misfortunes, and whoso hopes
depend on her future prosperity.
lon can elect such men. Success
is w ithin your grasp You have but
to w ill it and tho victory is yours. All
classes of our citizens deplore the rule
of tin l present regime. Their pride
arid their pockets alike rebel against
its continuance. Tbe colored people
arc ready to bo delivered from their
new be .Jago—a bondage which
makes them slaves to the ambition
and tho avarice of the office-seekers
whom aspire to be their leaders. They
begin to realize that tho men of the
(South, with who they have lived so
so long, are their true friends ; and
tiiai those who now govern ih» State
are fast engulphing them and us in a
common destruction. They will not
1 o longer misled by the false accusa
tion that wo wish to put them back
into slavery or to take away their po
litical rights. Th"y wt ,ll know that
wo would not do either if we could,
and that we could not if we would.
Their best interests and ours alike de
jcml on a wise and just administra
tion of tlie Government. And thous
ands of thorn uro willing to co operate
with ns iu displacing fiom power those
whose incapacity and reckless extrav
agance have well nigh plunged the
[State into bankruptcy and ruin.
But if’ you will have success, you
must bo united among yourselves. You
must rally around the chosen stand
ard beaters of the party. Indepen
dent nndidates must have the mag
nanimity and patriotism to withdraw.
It tiiey will not, withdraw from their
support —though they be your warm
est politic b uiends—and leave them
to suffer the defeat they ib-serve.
This is no time tor division in our
ranks. There is too mucii at _.i .e,
and the peril is too great L us sur
render petty ion' ,ies and personal
■ambitions aud dislikes, and give a
cordial support to the selected candi
dates of the party. Suspend your
business while the election is progress
ing, and attend the poll. Do not vote
nt any precinct—vote only at the countg
site. Conform siri tig to the Luc in all
respects, lj none of the appointed man
agers appear bg 10 o'clock on the dag of
• leetocn, get three free-holdcrs to open
the polls, as provided Ig section 1314 of
tho Code. Above at’ tilings, preserve the
peace. And may God defend the right
and save the State !

COL,. TIC I S* 11.
According to announcement, Col. j
Tift visited our town on Saturday last I
for the purpose of addressing the eit- j
izens of Terrell on tho issues of tho
day. At an early hour a largo con
course ot citizens both white and color
ed,assembled, and when the hour for
speaking arrived a general rush was
made for the Court House.
<>u motion of Dr. Lasse tor, Judge
L. Bryan was called to the chair and
11. W. King requested to act as sec j
rotary. Before the speaker was in
troduced, alter the organization of
tho meeting, it was suggested that as
the crowd was so large, it would be
hotter to ad journ to tlie Court House
square, which was done. We will
not attempt to givo a full synopsis of
the speech, first, because of its length,
and secondly, because the truths
involved in tho discussion
were made so plain and
were so forcibly illustrated to tho
mass of our citizens, that we are con
fident they are remembered and are
i being cherished until tho election,
] when wo believe they will exemplify
their appreciation for the speaker and
! the cause ho advocates. Col. Tift did
[notdeny Whiteley’s charge, that he
j had never been instrumental in re
moving the disabilities of but three
] political sinners, but he did state why
lie had not been able to accomplish
more for us than ho had, viz: That
unlike Wlnteloy he did not belong to
any of the “rings.” One thing wo
learned on that day, to our gratifica
tion, to wit; That neither tho “Loyal
Lcgue” nor“ Young Men’s Republican
Club” were represented in Terrell
county. If all the counties composing
til a2d district could say as much,
Wliitely might distribute his infamous
documents, and in lulgo in his night
ly visits until he died with old a?"
without succeeding in radicalizing
this district.
A '’loving kpeccli
On last Friday, one day ah end of
time,Mr. Whitley commenced deliver
ing at tho Court House in our town,
au historical sketch of the parties that
existed before the war, to quite a
large number of our citizens who
were in attendance at the Superior
Court. The historical part of the
speech was listened to with marked
attention, but when he was trying to
impress upon his hearers that the
Democratic party was the cause of
the late war and all other troubles un
der which we labor, and to point to
the Republican party as a palladium
for political evils, liis eloquence was
so great that lie moved all tho people
out of the house except about fourteen
who remained,partly, we suppose, to
share his embarrassment, and partly
through idle curiosity. W o nad hoped
that he had made his exit- having
come in advance of Oul Tift we were
led to believe that his engagements
were so numoous ami pressing that he
could’nt possibly travel aud discuss
the issuos of tho day with his oppo
nent. But, what was our supprise
when we heard of him on Saturday
night, and eveu as late as Sunday
morning, at a negro church near our
town trying to influence a negro can
didate for the Legislature not to make
the race. If this bo true, and we are
not disposed to doubt it, we are con
fident in the beliei expresse l by us last
week that these midnight workers
were using all mauuer of fraud and
chicanery—deluding the ignorant
negro, using him as a tool for tho pur
pose of working out their own politi
cal ends. Como, Mr. Whitley, you can
Ido enough mischief in tlie day time
without interfering at night with the
religious services of tho colored race.
Brunswick & Albany Rail Road.—
The Albany News announces tho
fact that all obstacles to the progress
of this enterprise have been removed,
and that the work will be pushed vig
orously to completion. The Superin
tendent, Col. E. Hulbert,will at once
iucrease his force, and. with another
contractor working east from Albany
to meet him, it is thought that 15
miles per month can be built, and
that in four months the gap of sixty
miles will be closed.
j We have received tho third num
i ber of the Good Templars Advocate, a
very neat temperance paper, and oili
cial organ of the order of Good Temp
lars, published at Americus by the
j Sumter RepuhLcau publishing com
ply.
The Macon & Augusta Road is
open, and is now receiving and ship
ping freight direct to Charleston from
Macon.
A colored poet of Memphis has redu
ced the Fifteenth Ainendent. and the
Enforcement bill to rhyme as follows:
“It is a sin to steal a pin,
A crime to cut a throat—
But a darned sight bigger to stop a
, nigger
From putting in his vote.”
It is always in our power to make a
friend by smiles ; what a folly, then,
to make an enemy by frowns.
The President’s Message
To both Houses of Congress. j
CONOR VTULATOBT.
To the Senate and House of Representatives:
Wasui.wto 5, December 5.—A year
of j»e.ujo and general prosperity to this
nation has passed since the last
assembling of Congress# Wo have,
through a kind Providence, been
blessed with abundant crops and have
been spared from complications and
war with foreign nations. In our
midst comparative harmony has boon
restored. It is to be regroted, however
that a free exeiciso of tlie elective
franchise has by violence and intimida
tion, been denied to citizuns—in ex
ceptional cases—in severel of the
; States lately in rebellion and the
■ verdict of the people has thereby been
i reversed. The .Statesof Virginia,Miss
issi ppi and Texas, have been restored
to representation in our national coun
cils. Georgia, the only State now
without representation,may confident
ly bo expected to take her place there
also at the begiunig of the new year,
and then let us hope will be completed
tho Work of rocunJtruction. With an
acquiescence ou the part of the whole
people iu the national obligation, to
pay the public debt created as tho
price of our Union—tho pensions to
our disabh and soldiers and sailors and to
their widows aud orphans, and in the
changes to the constitution which hare
been made necessary by a great rebel
oin, there is no reason why we slioud
not advance in material prosperity aud
happiness as no other nation every did
alter so protracted and devastating a
war.
HE UNITED STATES AND TRUSSO F BENCH
WAB.
Soon after the existing war broke
out in Europe, the protection of tho
United Statos Minister in Baris was
invoked iu favor ot North Germans
domiciled ou French territory. In
structions wero issued to grant the
protection. This has been followed
by an extension of American protec
tion to citizeus of Saxony, Hesse,Saxo
(Joburg, Columbia, Portugal, Uru
guay, the Dominion u, Equador, CiiilL
Paraguuy and Venezuela in Paris. —
The charge was au onerous one, re
quiring constant and severe labor, as
well a.s the exercise of patience, pru
dence and good judgment. It has
been formed to the entire satisfaction
of this government, and as lam offi
cially informed, equally so to the sat
isfaction of the govoinmout of North
Germany. As soon as I learned that
a Republic had been proclaimed at
Paris, and that the people of Franco
had acquiesced in the change,the min
ister of the United States was directed
by telegraph to recognize it, and to
tender my congratulations and those
of the people ol the United Statos, as
the-establisliment in France of a sys
tem ol Government disconnected with
the dynastic t. aditious of Europe ap
peared to be a proper subject tor the
felicitations ol Americans. Should
the present struggle result iu attach
ing tlie hearts ol tne French te our
simple forms oi republican government
it will be a subject of still further sat
isfaction to our people. While we
make no effort to impose our institu
tions upon the inhabitants of other
countries, and while we adhere to our
traditional neutrality in civil contests
elsewhere, wo cannot bo indiiferent to
tho spread of American political ideas
in a groat aud highly civilized country
tike France.
ALABAMA CLAIMS.
I regret to say that no conclusion
has been readied for the adjustment
ol the claims against Groat Britain,
growing out of the course adopted by
that Government during the rebellion.
The cabinet of Lundon so far as its
views have been expressed, does not
appear to be willing to concede that
Her Majesty s Government was guilty
of any negligence, or did or permitted
any act during the war by which the
United States has just cause ot com
plaint. Our firm and unalterable eon
viotiuus are directly the reverse. I,
therefore, recommend to Congress to
authorize the appointment of a com
mission to take proof of the amounts
and tho ownership of these several
Claims,on Dotice to the representatives
of Her Majesty at Washington, and
that authority be given lor the settle
ment ol these claims by the United
States—so that ttie Government shall
have tho ownership of the private
claims as welt as the responsible con
trol ot all the demands against Great
Britain. It cannot bo necessary to
add that whenever. Her Majesty's
government shall entertain a desire for
a full and fr eudiy adjustment of
these claims tho United .Status will
enter upon their consideration with
an euruest desire for a conclusion con
sistent with honor and dignity of both
nations.
A NEW DEPARTMENT OF STATE BUILDING.
The eon ition of the archives at the
Department ol Slate calls for the early
acUonol Congress. Tho buiidiug now
rented by the department is a trail
structure, at an iuconvenieut distance
from the Executive Mansion ami from
tlio other departments. It is ill-adap
ted to the purpose for which it is used
has not capacity to accomodate the .
archives ami is not lire proof. Its,
remote situation, its slender construc
tion and tho absence ol a supply of
water in the neignborhood leave little
hope of safety, lor either the buil ling
or its contents, in case of the accident
of a fire. Its des.tucuon w uld involve
the ioss of the rods containing the
oiigiual acts and resolptious of Con
gress—of the history and records of
the Revolution und of the Confedera
tion—of the whole series of diplomatic
and consular archives, since, the adop
tion of the Constitution, and of tho
many other vaiubie records and papers
left with that department, wlieu it
was the principal depository ol the
governmental archives. 1 recom
mend an appropriation for the
construction of a buiidiug for tho j
Department of State.
CIVIL LIST.
The estimates for the expenses of
the Government for the next fiscal
year are $18,*244,340 10 less than for.
the current one; but exceed tho appro
priation for tho perwent year, for the
same items, SB, 972, 127. 66. In this
estimate is included ?22, $338, 278,
37 for public works heretofore began
under Congressional provision, ami of
which only so much is askod as Con
gress may choose to give. The appro
priation for the same works for the
present fiscal year was 11,5984,518,
09.
SPECIE rAYMKNr.
Tlie average value of gold, as com
jiared with national currency lor tho
whole of the year 1869 was about 1.
.34, and for eleven months of 1870
the same relation has been about 1.15.
The approach to a specie basis is very
gratifying, but the fact cannot be
denied that the instability of the value
of our currency is prejudicial to our
prosperity and tends to keep up prices
to tho detriment of trade. The evils
of a doprecatedand fluctuating curreny
; are so great that now, when tho pre
mium. on gold has fallen so much it.
: would seem that tho time lias arrived
when, by wise and prudent legislation,
; Congress should look to a policy which
would place our currency at par with
gold at no distant day.
REDUCTION OF TAXES.
Tlie tax collected from the people
has been reduced more than eighty
miliums of dollars per annum. By
steadiness in our present course there j
] is no reason why, in a few short years, j
the national tax gatherer may not,
I disappear from tho door of tho citi- j
zen almost entirely. With tlie reve
nue stamp dispensed by postmasters
in every community, a tax upon li
quors of all sorts and tobacco in all
its forms, and by a wise adjustment of
the tariff which will put a duty only
upon tliose articles wliich we couid
dispense with, known as luxuries, and
on those wliich wo uso more of than
we produce, revenue enough may be
raised, aitor a few years of peace and
consequent reduction of indebtedness,
to tut till all our obligations. A fur
ther reduction of expenses, in addition
of interest account, may bo relied on
to make this practicable.
THE POST-OFFICE DEPABTUENT.
Tho accompanying report of tho
Postmaster iieueral shows a most
satisfactory working of that depart
ment. With the adoption of toe re
commendations contained therein,par
ticularly those relating to a reform in
tne franking privilege aud tho adop
tion ot tne correspondence cards, a
self-sustaining postal system ruay
speedily be looked for aud at a dis
tant day, and a further reduction of
the rate of postage bo attained.
I recommend authorization by Con
gress to tlie Post master General and
Attorney General to issue all commis
sions to officials appointed through
their respective departments. At pres
ent tnese commissions, where appoint
ments are Presidential, are issued by
the fttate Department The law in
all the departments of the Govern
ment, except those ot the ' Post-office
and of J uotice, authorize each to issuu
it* own commissions.
REFintMS IN TUE CIVIL SERVICE.
Always iavoring practical reform, I
respectfully call your attention to one
abuse ot long standing which I would
like to see remedied by this Congress.
It is a reiortn in the civil services of
tho country. L would have it go be
yond tiie mere fixing ot the tenuro of
oifiue of cler sand employees who do
not require the advice and consent of
tho Senate to make thoir appoint
ments complete, and would have it gov
orn, not the tenure, but the mailer of
making all appointments. There is
no duty which so muon embarrasses
the Executive and heads of depart
ments us that of appointments; nor is
there any such arduous or than less
labor imposed upon .Senators or diep
roseiitatives as taut of finding places
tor constituents. Tho present system
does not secure the best inou and of
ten not oven fit men for public place.
The elevation and purification of the
civil service of tile Government will
be hailed with approval by tho people
of the United states.
INDIAN AFFAIR3.
Reform in the management of In
dian atfairs has received the special
attention of the Administration from
its inauguration to the present day.—
The experiment of making it a mis
sionary work was tried, with a lew
agencies given to the denomination
of Friends, and has been found to*
work most advantageously. All agen
cies and siiperinteridencies not so dis
posed of, wore given to odicers of the
army.
Tue acts of Congress reducing the
army renders army olficars ineligible
for civil positions, dndiau agencies,
being civil ollicos, I determined to give
all ttie agencies to such religious de
nominations as had horetolore estab
lished missionaries among the dudi
am, au<i, perhaps, to some other de
nominations who would undertake the
work on the same terms —that is, as a
missionary work. Tire societies selec
ted are allowed to namo thoir own
agents, subject to the approval of
the Executive, and are expected to
watch over them and aid them as mis
sionaries, to Christianize and civilize
ti.e Indian, and to train him in tue
arts of peace. T he Government watch
es over the official acts of those agents
and require oi them as strict an ac
countability as it they were appointed
in other manner.
I entertained the confident hope
that the policy now pursued will in a
few years bring all the Indians upon
reservations where they will live in
houses—have school houses and chur
ches, and will be pursuing peacetul
and sustaining avocations, and where
they may be visited by the law-abid
ing white man with the same impuni
ty that he now visits the civilized
white settlements. 1 call your special
attention to the report of the Com
missioner of Indian Atlairs for fun
information on this subject
TUBLIC LANDS.
During the la t fiscal year 3,095,-
413 acres ol public laud were dispos
ed of- Os this quan ity 3,098,910,0,,
acJus were takon under tho homesteau
law, and 2,159,515,81 acres sold fin
cash. Tho remainder was located,
with military warrants, college or In
dian scrip, or applied in satisfaction
of grants to railroads or other public
uses. The entries under the lionm
stead law during the last year covered
961,54.> acres more than those during
tho proceeding year. Surveys have
been vigorously prosecuted to the full
extent of the means applicable to the
purpose The quantity of land in
market will amyly supply the present
demand
The claim of tho settlor under tho
homestead or the pre-emption laws is
not however, limited to lands subject
to sale at private entry. Any unap
propriated surveyed public land may,
to a limited amount, be acquired un
der the former laws, if the party en
titled to enter under them will comply
with the requirements they prescribe
in regard to residence and cultivation.
EDUCATION AND AOBICULTUItE.
The subjects of Education and ag
ricuituro are of great interest to tho
success of our Republican institutions
happiness and gran cur as a nation.—
In the interst of one a Bereau has
boon established in tho Interior De
partment—tho Bureau of Education
and in the interest of the other an as
sociate department—that of Agricul
ture. Beleiving great general good
is to flow from the operations of both
these Bureaus, if properly ostered, I
cannot commend to your careful con
sideration too highly, tho reports of
the commissioners of Education and
ot Agriculture; nor urge too strongly
such liberal legislation as to secure
their efficiency.
CONCLUSION.
In conclusion, I would sum tip tbe
policy of the administration to be a
thorough enforcement of every law
a laithtul collection of every tax pro
vided for—economy in the disburse
ment of the same—a prompt pay
ment ot every debt of the nation—a
reduction of tuxes as rapidly as the
requirements of the country w ill ad
mit—reductions nt taxation and tariff
to bo so arranged as to afford the
greatest relief to- tho greatest number
—'honest and fair dealings with asil
other people, to tho end that war,
with all its blighting" consequences
may be avoided, but without surren
dering auv right or obligation duo to
us—a reform in tlie treatment of In
dians and in tho whole civil service of
the country, and, finally, iu securing...
pure, un trammeled ballot, where every
maiWentitled to cast a rote may do so,
just once, at. each election, without
fear of molestation, or proscription, »u
account of his political faith, natirity,
or color.
