Call and see me. J. L. BYINGTON, fcb2o3m Late of Fort Valley, Ga. dawson, ga., TUI AAlial Radicals ®one for the Soittn* Prom a gpeeob mada by Genet il Hampton at a public msetiug io New York during the recent Convention we extract the following .• I will will only etate a few facta, for it ie a thing upon which I dare not speak. In the legislature of South Carolina, composed of a 156 members —of that Legislature from whose halls used to go as high intellect as ever came to the halls of Congress--of those one hundred and fifty-aix members there are nearly, if not quite, now, one hue d red negroes. [Hisses, and cries of ‘Shame.’] From these negroes, and all of that Legislature, the whole taxes that they are liable to pay amount to seven hundred dollars. [‘Oh, oh,’ and laughs.] Os that] about five hund red dollars have been paid by one of the Conservative members, and the two hundred dollars that are to be paid by negroes and carpet-baggers, half of it is under execution. [Appiouse and laugh ter.] Well, that Legitlature, compos ed in that way, has the right to a impoee a levy or tax on South Carolina to the amount of 810,250,000. [Applause.] Now, gentlemen, if that state of tbiogs goes on, what will be the result? Why, you know it means that in a few years from this time there will not be a white man, woman, or child in the State of South Carolina. [Criee of-Shame.’] — I only mention that as one of the South ern States. It is true that it is perhaps in a worse condition than most of the others, but they are all afflicted by that fearful calamity that is hanging over us, and we can have no relief unless the Democratic party will oome out aDd pledge itself that we shall have a fair election ; that the whito people of the South shall vole. I want you all to register an oath that when they do vote that their vote shall be counted, and if there is a majority of white votes that you will place Sey mour and Blair in the White House in spite of all the bayonets that shall be brought against them. We only want to see the election fair. If they do that and even with the incubus of black rule, we can carry the South, at least. Applause.] Gentlemen, (as I Said,) I do not like to tou-h upon those themes. [Cries of “Good, good.”] I only proposed to come here to make my acknowledge- ments to you. I come to tell you that these Dominations which you have made will meet with the hearty concu reuce of the Southern men. I wanted to tell you how grateful, how gratified we heve been at the reception that you have given us. I wanted to tell you that though we fought in good faith, we laid down our arms in good faith.— [Great applause. I wanted you to be lieves that we were men of honor, and that while we meant war when wc said war, when we said peace we meant peace, not that peace which the Radi cals would give us [‘no no,’] not that peace which crushes to earth ten of these States ; not that peace which pla ces the ignorant negro over us; but the peace in all our households, peace thro all our land ; that peace which the great Democratic party has sworn to-day at Tammany Hall we shall have. [A voice—“We will do it,”] [Another voice—“ You are our white brothers.”] I appeal, gentlemen, to that senti ment. I appeal in the name of race.— I appeal to you by our common tradi tions in the past. I appeal to your memory of that time when South Car - olina sent her soldiers to fight here and at Boston. I appeal to you by the memories of the revolution. J appeal to you by all the past, by every hope of the future, to stand together and give us deliverance, and to give success to these nominations of the men whom you have made your standard-bearers to-day. [Applause.] Now, gentlemen, in the name of the Southern States— in the name of South Carolina —in my own name—l thaDk you for the courte sies you have extended to ns since we have been here. I thank you for the reception, and assure you that I shall take back to my people nothing but the most grateful memories of your kindness. [Applause.] While the boat was lying at Cincinnati, just ready to start for Lou isville, there was a young man came on board, leading a blushing young dfm sei by the hand, and approaching the clerk, in a suppressed voice ; “I say,’* he exclaimed, “me and my wife have just got married, and I’m looking for accomodation.’’ “Looking for a birth ?’ hastily inquired the clerk—passing tickets out to another passenger. “A birth ? thunder aud lightning no !’ gasp ed the young man. “We ain’t but just got married ! we want a place to slay all night, you know and—a bed.’ Something Ab '*t Women. The Art of Ai Vtioo, TH* MADDENING UNCONh CWU9 WOMAN. There is a certain like kind of aiTec tion very common among pretty woneu ; and this is the affection of not knowing t.hut they are pretty, and not recogniz ing the effect of their beauty on men.— Tah e a woman with bewildering eyes, s ,y < of a maddening size and shape, and ft inged with long lashes that dis tract y7H to l°°k at; the creature knows t/»»t her eyes arc bewildering, as well as a be knows that fire burns and iua melts ; s he knows the effect of that trick she hx * wi'h them—the sudden uplifting of tC« heavy lid,and the swift, full gaze that she gives right into a man’s eyes. Bhe has practiced it often in the gla6B anu knows to a mathemat ic U niceity the oxact bight to which the*lid must be ra/sed and, tbs exact fixi- y of the gaze*. She knows the who le meaning of the look, and * the gtirii gos men’s blood that it creates j but it you speak to ber of the effect of her tri, tk, she puts on an air of tbo ex tremest innocence, and protests ber en tire igut 'ranee as to anything ter eyes may say. or mean ; and if you press her hard ibe will look at you in the same way i or her own benefit and s deny at the very moment of offense. Vari ous other tr. cka has she with bewilder ing eyes of here—each move perilous •than the other to men’s peace ; and all unsparingly ci aployed, no matter what, the result. IV r this is the womau who flirts to her exti'cme limits, then sud denly draws up and says she meant nothing. Step by ttep she has led you on, with looks a id smiles, and pretty doubt ul phrases susceptible of two meanings, the one for the ear by the mere word, the ot her for the heart by the occompaniment sos look aud - man ner which are intan gable ; step by step 6be has drawn you i ’eeper and tjgcper into the maze where she has gone before as your decoy ; when fcbe has you safe she raises her eyes for the last time, complains that y< u ha re mistaken her cruelly, and 6hat she las meant noth more than any ont else might mean ; and what can she do to repair her mis take ? Love you ? marry you ? No; she is engaged toy mr rival, who counts bis thousands to y our hundreds; and and what a pity yon had not seen this all along, and that »-ou should have so misunderstood her; besides, what is there about ber tbal you or any one should love ? Os al I the many rffecta tions of women, this iffectation of their own harmlrs.-ness w.i sn beautiful, and of tbeir innocence of • esign when they practice tbeir arts so the discomfiture of men, is the most cUogerous and the most disastrous But wbat can one say to them ? The very fact that they are dangous disarms a man’s anger nnd b>id as I ts perception until too late Men love though they suf fer in woman’s triumph, guilt and con donation ; so 10-.ig the trick succeeds it will be practiced. Another affectation of the same family is the extreme fiiend liness and familiarity which some wo ment adopt in their manners toward men. Young girls affect an almost ma ternal tone to boys of their own ago, or a year or so older; and they too, when their elders remonstrate, declare they mean nothing, and how bard it is they may not be natural- This form of affectation, one begun, continues throughout life, being two conveniet to be lightly discarded; and youthful ma trons not long out out of their teens as sume a tone and way that would about befit middle age counseling giddy youth, and that might by chance be dangerous even then if the “Indian summer” was specially bright and warm. THE DRAWLING WOMAN, ETC. Then there is the affectation pure and simple, which is the mere affectation of manner, such as is shown in the drawl iog voice, tbe mincing gait, the extreme gracefulness of attitude, that by con sciousness ceases to be grace, and the thousand little minauderiet and coquet ries of tbe sex known to us alt And there is the affectation which people of a higher social sphere show when they condescend to those of low estatet and talk and look as if they were no, quite certain of their company, and scarcely knew if they were Christian or heathen, savage or civilized. And there is the affectation of the matternnl pa ~ sion which woman wha are never by any chance seen with their children, but who speak of then - , as if they were never out of tbeir sight; the affeocta tion of wifery adoration with weman who are to be met about the world with every mao of tbeir acquaintance rather than with tbeir lawful husbands : tbe affectation of life in women who lead a thoroughly self enjoying life from eod to end ; and the affectation of political fervor in those who would never give up a ball or anew dress to save Europe jrom a uoiversal revolution. Go where we will, affectation of being something she is not, meets us in woman like u game hen that cannot lay, or a mist that we cannot sweep away In the holiest and most (rival things alike, we find it penetrating everywhere—even in church and at her prayers, the pretty penitent, rising from ber lengthy orison lifts ber eyes and looks about her fur tively to see who has noticed her self abasement, and to whom ber pictur esqa piety has commeuded itself. All sorts and patti ros girls and pleas ant women arc very mar and delight ful ; but the pearl of great price is the thoroughly natural and uuaffeoted wo man—that is, the woman who is truth ful to the core, and who would us little condescend to act a pretense as she would dare to tell a lie. FrauU Blair’* Platform Letter Washington, June 30. Col Jas O £ road head : DteAR Colonel —ln reply to your in quiries, I beg leave to soy that I leave to you to determine, on consultation with my friends from Missouri, whfcth er my name shall be presented to the Democratic Convention, and '<J suln it the follov ing, as what I wmsider the real and only issue in this o n'est. The recons'ruction policy of the RaJ icals will ce complete before the next election ; the Stales, so long excluded, will have been admitted, negro suffrage established, and the carpet baggers installed in their seats in both branches of Congress. There is no possibility of changing the political character of the SeDute even if the Democrats should elect their Presidents, and a majority of the popular branch of Congress We cannot, therefore, undo the Radi cal plan of reconstruction by Congres sional action The Senate will contin ue a bar to its repeal. Must we sub mit to it ? How can it be overthrown? It can only be overthrown by the au thority of the Executive, who is sworn to maintain the Cons itution, and who will fail to do his duty if he allows the Constitution to perish under a seriesof Congressi nal enactments, which -are in palpable violation of its luudumental .principles. If the President elected by the Dem ocracy enforces, or permits others to enforce, these Reconstruction acts, the Radicals, by the accession of twenty spurious Senators and fifty Represen tatives, will control both branches of Congress, and his administration will be as powerless as the present odo of Mr. Johnson. There is but ono way to re-tore the Government and the Constitution, and that is for the President elect to de dare these acts null and void, compel the army to undo its usurpation at the South, disperse the carp.t-bag Stute governments, allow the while people to organize their own governments, and elect Senators and Representa tives The House of Representatives will contain a majority if Democrats from the North, elected by the wbi e people of the South, and, with the co operation of the President, it will not be difficult to compel the Senate to submit once more to the obligations of (he Constitution. It will not be able to withstand the pub'icjudgement, if dis tinctly invoked and c’early expiessed, on this fundamental issue, and it is the sure wey to avoid all future strife to put this issue plainly to the country I repeat that this is the real and on ly question which we should allow to control ns. Shall we submit to the usurpations by which the Government has been overthrow o, or shall we exert ourselves for its full ar.d complete res toration ? It is idle to talk ol bonds, greenbacks, gold, the public faith and the public credit What can a Demo ciatio President do in regard So any of these, with a Congress in both branch es controlled by the carpet-baggers and their allies? He will be powerless to stop the supplies by which idle ne groes are organized into po itical clubs —by which an army is mainiulned to protect these vagabonds in their out rages uj on the ballot. Thtse, and tt ingslike these, eat up the revenues and resources of he Gov ernment, and destroy its credit, make the difference between the gold and greenbacks We must restore the Constitution before we restore the fi nances, and to do this we must have a Prtsident who will exteu'e tbe will of the people, by trampling into duet tho usurpations of Congees.*, know n astne Reconstruction Acts I wish to stand before tbe Convention upon this issue, but it is one that embraces eveiything else that is of value iu its large and comprehensive results. It is the one thing that includes all that is worth a contest, and without it, there is noth ing that gives dgnity, honor or value to the struggle. Your friend, Frank P. Bliir. No. S4. The Syiii|Milliclic Woman. If we were called upon to describe Mrs. Dobbs we should, without hesita tion, call her a sympu'hizing woman Nobody was troubled with any malady she hadn’t suffered. She knew all about it by experience, and could sym puthize with thorn from the bottom of her heart. Bob Turner was a wag nnd when one >lay he suw Mrs. Dobbs coming along the road towards his house, he knew that io the absence of his wife, be should be called upon to entertain her, and he resolved to play a li tie on the good woman’s abundant store of sympathy. Hastily procuring a large blanket, he wrapped himself up iu it, nnd tLrow himself on a sofa near by. “Why, good graci' Us! Mr. Turner, are you sick ?” asked Mrs. Dobbs ns she saw his position “Oh, dreadfully groaned the im aginary invalid. “\That’s the matter ?” inquired Mrs Dobbs. “Oh ! a great many things First ands reni 'st, I’ve got a congestion of the brain ’’ “That’s dreadful,” she sighed “I came pretty near dying of it fen years ago come next- spring. Wont next." “Dropsy,” groaned Bob. “Tbeie I cun sympathize with you I was troubled with it, but finally got over it/’ “Neura'gia,” continued Bob. “Noboby cud tell, Mr. Turner, what I’ve suffer u d from Neuralgia. Its an awful complaint.” “Then, aga n, I am very much dis. tressed by mflumution of the bowels,” said he. “If you’ve got that I pity you,” commented Mrs. Dohbs; -‘for three years S'eady I was afflicted with it; and I don’t think I've fully recovered yet ” “Rheumatism.’’ “Yes, that’s p-etty likely lo go along witn neural gia. It did with me.” • Toothache,” suggested B.ib. “There have been times, Mr. Tur ner when I thought I should have gone distructed with the toothache,” said she. “Then,” said Bob, having tempora ri'y run out of his stuck of medical terms, resorted to u scientific name, “I'm nfruid that I've got the tetbyusa urus.” “I shouldn't be at all surprised, but what I had it when I was young,’ continued the ever-ready Mrs. Dobbs Though it was with great difficulty that be could resi.-t Bob con tiuued. “I am suffer'ng a great deal from n sprained ankle.” “J hen you can s vmpathize with me, I sprained mine when i was com ng along.” ‘ G, ye?, but that isn’t the worst of it.” “What is it ?” asked Mrs. Dobbs, with curiosity. “I wouldn’t tell any one but you, Mrs. Dobbs but the fact is,” here he groaned, “I’m alraid, and the doctor agrees with me, that my reason is af fected ; that, in short, I’m a little cra- Bob took breath, and w ondered what the sympathizing weman would say to that. “Oh, Mr. Turner, is it possible ? l’ts horrible 1 I know it is. I fre quently have spells of being out of my head myself!” exclaimed the lady. Bob could s’and it ro longer;-he burst into a roar of laughter, which Mrs. Dobbs taking for a precursor cf a violent paroxysm of insanity, she was lead to take a hurried leave. Causes of Scdoen Death Very f'W of the sudden deaths which are said to ari6e from diseases of the heart do really arise from that cause. To ascertain the real origin of sudden deaths, the experiment bas been tried in Europe and reported to a scientifiic congress held bt Strasbourg. Sixty six cases of rudden death were made the subject of a thorough po,t morti m examination. In these cases only two were found who had died from disease of the heart. Nine out of sixty-six has died from nppoflexy, while there were forty-six cases of congestion of the lungs—that is, the lungs were so full ol blood they could not work, there not being room enough f»»r a suffi ient quantity of air to enter to support life The causes that produce congestion of the lungs are cold feet, tight cloth ing, cos ive bowels, sitting still UDlil chilled sf er being waimed wi h labor or a rapid walk, going too suddenly from a close heated room into tne cold air, especially after speakin p, and suddenly depressing news operating on the blood These causes of sud den death being known, an avoidance of them may serve to lengthen the lives lost under verdict of heart com pia'D's. That disease is rupposed to be inevitable and incurable; hence many do not t, ke the psinsthey would to avoid sudden death, if they knew it lay in their power. “The sound cf your hammer,’ gays nranklio, “at five in the morning cr at night, heard by a creditor, makes him easier six months longer; but if he tees you at the billiard table, or hears your voice at a tavern when you should be at work, he will scud tor his money the next evening.” “If we Can Fleet Then.” There must not be no “ifs” about it. VVe mint elect Beyrn,#ur and Blair.— \V k WILL *o IT I Common sense, common hones'yaod patriotism nave nut all become extinct. If they have, we must nppeal in the most solemn manner to the interests nnd fenre of the people Let things remain and go on in tboir present tram four years lon ger, and peace, prosperity anti happi ness are gone for a lifetime. It is im possible to avoid the honors of anarchy and military despotism. The constitu tion, the only character ol public liber ty, is already trampled under foot— justice dethroned in our courts—the Execn ive reduced to imbocility, or compelled to be the helpless tool of ar rogant and usurping Congress— alike unscrupulous, corrupt, insolent and cruel. This downward progress must bo suddenly arrested, or a dreadful catas trophe will follow, which shall inrolvo every man and destroy all hrpe of re pose—all change for peace and securi ty. The people must be oronsed to the awful danger and pressed by such facts and arguments that even Radi cal partisans shall tremble while they rofuse the warning. The press and the hustings must be put in most ac tive operation. The facts must be dil igently collected anJ disseminated in every form. . .. We, in the South, should adapt our work to the peculiarities of our condi tion. The press cannot do so much directly, because half our voters can not read, and of the other moiety very few, we hope and trust, will be found luithless to the cause of their country. Buts ill we can encourage well direct ed efforts for its rescue, am] carefully oppose eveivthing which may preju dice the cause iu their sections. Let every Democratic editor have an espec iul eye to this, and let us work on with zeal, energy and entire confidence of victory. —Macon Telegraph. Conscience. — A young woman was taken in charge In the Etrrets of Chicago, the other day, who was labor ing under the illusion that the spirit of her dead husband was pursuing her, a L( j demanding skeleton arms out s retched, h r money Bhe had already thrown SHOO at the feet of the appari tion but it still pursued. The insanity of the woman is the last sot of a trage dy that occurred three years ago. At that time shu was the pride cf an old divorced man, woo at once doted upon and was terribly jealous of ber. On* evening he a-ked her Lr SSOO whioh he had given her in a morront of ter derr e?s. She tauntingly p plied that she bad given it to her lovor. He de manded the name of the man, threaten ing to blow his own brains out if not informed. She told him to blow away. The next no ment be lay dead at het feet, his brains scatteied over her night drrss. Her guilty conscience now cun jures up the old man continually haent ing her and demanding bis money, as on the fatal night. Wheat Broad. Wheat is, beyond all dispute the most perfect article of human food, it being tbe only vegetable production yet discovered that contains all the ele ments necessary for the nourishment of the muscle, boers, fatty tissues and brain in just the right proportions.— Beans. Peas, Indian Corn sod other er grains afford perfect nourishment for all tbe organs bnt the brain, in which term is included the spinal mar row and tbe nerves, which branch from tbe brain, and are identical in composi tion with it, tbe whole formirg one sys tem or set of organs. Now the pablu* lum of the braiß is phosphorus, whose life giving fire thrills aloDg the nerves, and whose light i'lumina’es the cham bers of the mind —for, oould we right ly understand the correspondencies be tween the material and spiiitua l . Wo might see tbe light in the intelleotual sense was someihiog more than a mere figure of speech. Tbe wear cf the brain by stuly or any mental effert throws (ff the phosphorus which is found with other was'e matter in urine or oth er sections.
