The Campaign, In view of the plain fact that wo as a people seeking to dethrone ignorance, injustice and misrule and to enthrone wisdom, justice and moderation ; and mitotif «tiu , txj rtrmtrnJ"' lire glorious old Empire Staatc to her for mer status in the Union of our fathers, and her people to their days of by gone prosperity, we appeal to every true eon of Georgia who holds dear the liberties of oer ancestors, to strike manfully in in the cause of restoration and work with a zeal UDparalltd in the politicrl past. The issues of the campaign arc of the greatest magnitude 1 The pres ent campaign is one, the terminus of which, will either restore the govern ment to its purity, give life and animation to the agricultural, commer cial and manufacturing pursuits and re call the last liberties of the people, or consign them all to a common grave of ruin and total bankrubruptcy ; spread ing pestilence and famine over the land of a once happy and prosperous people. Shall the latter be our doom in Novem ber next ? No, not if our effortß can avert it. We bid arise ye slumbering sons of Georgia aud view the perils of thepend kig crisis, open your eyes to the danger before you, and enlist your efforts to burl back the tide of fanaticism that is sweeping broadcast over the land, sow- ! rag thr seed of wholesale robbery, shame 1 and disgust. Ycur ever; interest is in volved > the peaceful security aud hap piness of the much beloved daughters es Georgia bids you act. Why slum ber on ? Will you remain silent and inactive now when tbe Constitution and Republican institutions of tbe country are periled and asking deliverance at the hands ot Conservatism from those es reckless fanatics. It is in our power to stampede radicalism and send it load ed with chime and disgraoe (as it first •merged) hobbling to its don of infa my Let ns reason with our colored friends, explain to them the issues involved and expose the fallacies of their carpet-bag deceivers, (who promised them forty acres and a mule and gave them a Bul lock that wouldn’t plow) aDd glorious will be tbe result in November next. are glad t» see so many of our colored friends', wbo were our ene mies in the late political battles, be coming ashamed of Joe J}rown, (ool.) .Blodgett, and the scalawags, and organ izing themselves into Democratic clubs, and rallying to hoist its national stand ard on the cupola of the White House. In the city of Macon where colored rad icals were doubtless most zealous and enthusiastic in the cause of radicalism, oarpet-bagemigration and scalawag rule are turning with the deeper dyoj of shame and disgust. While the Demo cratic revival is going on in Georgia, j let ns organize a colored Democratic j Club in Terrell and add converts to j Democracy. ' FUOM ATLANTA. For the D»w*on ‘‘Journal.” | Atlanta, Ga , July 31st, 1868. Messrs. Editors .—The long agony is over wo have met the enemy in Lis strong breastworks, stormed their ram parts, and spiked their largest guns, snd scattered the Radical forces to tbe four winds of Heaven. On the ever wem orable day of the 2tih of July, Joe Brown and Perjured Blodgett, the Sampsons of tho Radical party of Geor gia, were beaten for the Senate of the United States. As the head which fur ui-hed the brains of tho Scalawag aud Carpet-Bag party of Georgia, has been decapitated, Joo Brown stands above, amid the putrified carcasses of bis dis appointed associates in infamy, to mourn over tbe lact, with dreadful apprehen sions of the future’ When he fell in the Legislature of Georgia, light burst forth from the clcuds which hung so long above us, and hope, joyous hope, beamed upon every countcnauce with whom we came in contact. The Hon. Joshua Hill and Dr. 11. V. M. Miller were elected as Senators from the Empire State of the South— Os the polit cal status of these gen tlemen, I can say but little. Mr. Ilili has always been a Union man. Where he stands now, 1 am not able to say.— He made us a short speech, thanking the people for the honor conferred, but, I do not think bo said Democrat once, or alluded to the Democratic Platform. Indeed, I see in this morning’s issue of the “Era,” that Bard says “it is finally settled, that in Mr. Hill, we have an unflinching friend of Gen. Grant” If this bo true, then we have accomplished but little in the election of Mr. Hill, although, I should, even nnder these circumstances, prefer him to Joe Brown. The statements of Bard must always be taken with due allowance when be speaks through his paper, a* he says himself, that, “Bard in tbe “Eia” is one thing, out of it, he is another.” What art the political views of Dr. Miller, lam not ablo to say. In his speech on the day of bis election, he said he “had a policy,” wbat that policy was, bo was careful enough not to make public. Those who are familiar with tbe pist history of Dr, Miller, know him always to have been a policy man, but bis policies bare never benefited either himself »r the country. One thing is certain, that when he j- iced the Union League, and over his own signa ture, pledged certain things to his col tea those principles and proved recreant to their cause and justly forfeited their respect. Under these circumstances, it is but a fair conclusion to say, that the Democratic party need not expect much from aDy man who proclaims a lino of policy, but keeps it to himself forotbers to conjecture. Consequently, wo ought not to claim the election of Hill and Miller as a Democratic tnumpl, but, as a mere choice of evils, and as the best that could be done. Democratic guns had become so dirty and rusty during this reign of terror, perhaps wc may use these gentlemen as wads to wipe out with, and be ready for a more glorious triumph in November,next. All honor to ibc Democrats and mod eratc Republicans, who have thus tri— utrphed over fraud and bribery. It will not be denied, that Bullock conde scended so low as to offer appointments to ccitain democrat?, if they would sop port Brown and Blodgett; but, these ! B’s were robb.d of their stiDgs, and they are mere drones, floating upon the suifaee of society. Gentlemen, to whom these bribes were made, spurned such overtures as contemptible, and only worthy such men as Bullock, Brown and Blodgett, who are krown throughout the country as demagogues, tricksters and scalawags, and to-day they are from the sea board to the mountains, the re cipients of an outraged and indignant people. I hesitate not to say, that Seymour and Blair will carry the State of Geor gia by over 20,000 votes, and the Em pire State of tbe South will be redeemed from Radical rule aDd dictation. In defeating the immaculate Joseph, the back bone of the Mmster has been broken, and like the serpant in tbe gar den of Eden, that party will have to lick dust and crawl upon its belly in all time to come, Ulysses can never Grant it relief. Bright faces are seen upon our streets I as we pass around. The Brownitcs look I awful and doubtless feel worse, as mooming over an untimely birth Others agaiD, who formerly belonged to their faith, are apostatising acd anxious ly enquiring for the “good old way,” and when told “this is the way, walk ye in it*” aro not slothful in forsaking the sinking ship. I could tell you of many who have already joined the Democratic Chureb, but, as they have not been re ceived into full fellowship, and only on probation, I forbear making public their names. Let them come—deal gently with these lambs of the flock. Don’t say anything about scalawags—many of them were honest men and were de ceived by Brown and lilodgott with re lief and homestead issues, but, as they have returned, like the prodigal son, let U3 bury the past and trust them in the future. ‘'Open coufession is good for | the aoul ’* Go into tho highways and hedges, and urge them to come in, that they may be clothed in their right uaintL and occupy scats among the vdiitcpeo rle. rOItCUPINE. Itrlicf for Thieve*. Scalawag* an<l Curi»el-Kasj{er*. “In view of the great poverty of our people r.tid of tbe present effect of set ting apart Homesteads, tbe Executive might, with the assistance of the Treas urcr and Comptroller, be authorized to exorcise a discretion as to the kind and character of bond to be giveu by persons elected to county officts to the end that, if for the above reasons, tho officer elect may not be able to secure the character of boud heretofore required, tbe choice of the people shall not be denied tho exercise of the duties of his office.”— Bulloclc's Message. Bullock has shown in the first abor- tive attempt at writing a State paper at least one excellence heretofore esteemed very highly by thieves and highway men —he insists upon taking care ot, and promoting the interest ol his scal awag clan, even though it should have to be done at the risk of having the tax es wrung from the impoverished people of tbe State, stolen and squandered by tbe incompetent and, in many instan ces, dishonest officials placed in power by tho negro aud scalawag vote. In many counties, Sheriffs, Ordina lies, Tax Receivers and Uollectoes have been elected who caDnot give bond for the faithful performance of tbeir respec tive du’ies in any secure or satisfactory amount. The Exprets agent is fully alive to this fact, and bene* his com mendation is not that official Bonds should be reduced 10. 20‘ 30, 50 or 80 per cent., but that the whulc matter shall be left with the discretion of tbe executive, assisted by tbe Treasurer and Comptroller. Not only does be pro pose that he shall bo permieted to fix the amount of tbe bond, but be asks to be invested with the right to decide up on the character of the bond and the ability of the boni’sman to rospond for any losses which may be sustained. This shameless attempt to take con trol of all the offices in the Slate is jus tified on tnc ground cf the poverty of our people and the effect of the large homestead exemption fixed by tbe ne gro constitution. Tho people of the State were urged to vote tor the ratifica tion of tbo constitution because it se cure and to the beads of families a large homestead exemption, and now tbe Legislature is solicited to give tho Ex press Agent the power to till coaunif i-ioosand iastall important public func tionaries in power without bounds, be cause by the effect of the homestead I revisions scalawags are not able to givo satisfactory security for the faith ful execution of their trusts. But i hi* is not all. If the partisans of the “Agent’’ in tho so called Legis raeiet careless observer that be will u: o this discretion in such a way as to per mit all the ignorant, incompetent and dishonest of his own party to exercise the functions of their offices without b nds—or at least with straw bonds, whi'e every comp- teut Democratic offi cial will be required to give exorbi'ant and extraordinary security. This is tbe object—the piimo moving cause of this silly and and dishonest rcommunda tion. Lot us see if therejis even plausibility 1b the pretext that the impoverished condition of the people render tbe bonds heretofore required by law too heavy aud oppresj-ite. Ih : most iui] octal.fe of these State officia s, as far as the mere question of dollars and cents is oonoern- ed, are the several tax receivers and collectors in the difft-ret counties. VVe admit that it would hardly be fair to require of these officials the same amour t ol bond as was required when tbe tax payers were more wealthy and the amount of t?xes assessed and collect ed much larger than is now brought in to be pub i: treasury. But tbe law as it now stauds ana as it has existed for several years, provides expressly for this fluctuation iu the amount of taxis to be raised and regulates the Tax Re ceivers and Collectors’ Bonds, in pro portion to the amount of taxes to be collected for eich year. Section of the Code, provides that the Tax Receivers and Collectors “shall give Bond and security in double “tbe amount of the Taxes duo the Stale “iu their County, taxing tbe Tax of the “previous years as a basis, subject to be “increased or diminished according to “the rate per cent or taxation end the “directions of the Comptroller General.” Now if the impoverishment of our peo ple has been as great as fifty per ceut of tbeir previous wealth, it will be seen that the tax is reduced in the same pro portion and that the Receiver an I Col lectors’ Bonds are by law reduced also one half. The truth is, as we have just hinted, Bulltck finds that nearly or quite all of the scalawags and negroes elected to fill i dices under the so called State Gov ernment are so deslitu'e of character position, virtue and honesty as to be utterly unable to give bonds for any amount for '.he honest performance of their official duties, and heDce he asks the Legislature to clothe him with the! extraordinary power of deciding wheth i er these men who do not have the con fidence and support of their cwn friends and acquaintances, shall hold these im portant offices without the least check or security lor their good behavior atid honest discharge of duty. The ‘agent’ knows that the uicn elected to the offices of Sheriff, County Treasurer, Tax Col lectors and Tax r ceiver in itichmond county cannot give bond in one-tenth of the amouut which is now required by law for the security of the tax-payer. For tho purpose of rewarding those poor wretches, who have sold themselves to Bullock and bis Radical crew, they were elected to offices which every hon est man in the county, black and white, knew they were incompetent to fill, and now the so-called Governor confesioi this much by asking the Legislature to permit him to have them installed into j office without bond or security. Wc caunot believe that the Legisla ture, Radical though it is said to bo, will lend themselves to such an blushing attempt to rob and plunder the impoverished and overburdened people of tbo State. If the unprinci pled aud characterless Radical crew, who have been in many counties elected by tho artful coctrivauocs of carpet-bag gars and scalawags, cannot give suffi cient bonds to secure the protcctioo of the public interests, let another election be held aud honest, competent men se lected to fill their places. Is this one of “Agent’s” recommen dations which the Macon Telegraph tbiuks “sensible and judicious ?” [Chronicle & Sentinel 29 t/i. ItcUiU'lioii of Official Homl*. Georgia, like the other Southern Slates, is met in tbe attempt to organ ize her State Government by a difficulty almost insuperab'e. Her statute law wisely demands of parlies, who aro to ass imy control and management of tbo lives aud property of citizens, that they shall give good and sufficient security for tbe faithful discharge of the duties of their offices, and for tho honest dis bursement and safe custody of Bucb public or private monies as may bo placed in their bands. Os tbe heterogenous orew that have been elected to tbe va rious State, county and municipal offi ces, it is safe to say that not one can give tbe bond required by law. In ad dition to tbe want of qualification for the diccharge of the duties of tbe posi tions to which they have been elected by force and fraud, these people are mostly paupers as to purse, and of no credit whatever. They cannot famish the security which is a pre-rrqusite of their installment into the fat pieces for which they have hungered and thirsted The very few men of means and credit of their political faith are the very last ones who will be likely tohaz.rd their possessions and reputation upon an is sue which promises nothing but loss, »Dd Democrats surely will not step for ward to the relitf of embarrasments not cf tbeir own making. The carpet bag Governor, whose administration is doomed to iguomiuious failure, fully appreciating the situation, advised iu his message that official bonds should bo reduced in amount. Mr. Betbune, of Talbot county, has embodied the gu bernatorial suggestion in a bill, and the Legislature is now called upon to put a lot of ignorant and irresponsible vagabonds into positions of honor, trust profit, and responsibility, upon bonds which may be considered the equiva lents of what is known in law as straw bail. Without this is done, Bullock and his party, to use a forcible though intelligent expression, “its done for.” If just and proper security is demanded, such security as is called for by law, the political power and control of tho State cannot pass into radical bands. The is an cutburst of generous ent hiiMURm. after tlpyleLaJ _(_fJlLjUit,’. ing resolution : Resolved, I hat we, like men having the interest of our State at heart, do bury all party feeling and prejudio", and go forward to perfect the cu.ct ment of such laws as will establish peace, harmony, etc., among all the peo ple of this State Legislative reports say it was adopted without a dissenting voice. It the men who voted for it are honest men, and carry at heart the interests of Georgia, if they really desire to pass such laws as will promote her peace aud prosper ity, they caunot pass conecientiously a law that will turn over the prop erty of the State, and the interests of widows, minors and orphans to a shoal of sharks. The *aro plenty ot men in Georgia capable aDd honest, and quali fi.d to fill every office in the State, and who can give all the security and more too, than that now required by law Many of these men are now in official 1 positi ns where they have been retaiued f:r years by reason of their capacity, intelligence and integrity. They can hold over until their successors are elected and qualified. Let the Legisla ture of Georgia see te it, that they do so hold until thoir successors are quali fied, or 6xpunge at once lrom their jour nals tbeir virtuous resolve. If men cannot qualify—order au electioo, iu which “sharp and quiet” shall have no baud, and the people of Georgia will elect such as can and will do so. By the just, proper and feasible process pointed out by us—the utter and com plete destruction of Bullock and his par ty may be accomplished.— Col, Sun. A Carious Prophety by a Col ored l*ropliet. [From the Wilmington (N. C.) Star.] We have been furnished by the col ored cock of the shooner Mm. L. Springs with a large printed document addressed “To the Open World,” in which he sets forth that, being a proph et, he has received a visit from the an gel of the Lord, and has been admon ished that ic 1872 the world will be visited by three plagues—fire, waicr, and famine. He advises all peoblo to build them waterproof bouses on high ground, and place water-proof vaults in them to contain provn-i ms. Further ;he tells them, duriog 1872, 1873 and 1874, to hoard up grain to live on dur ing tho dearth Ae says that on the Ist of January, 1875, these evils will commence, and expire at the end of three years. The author is a colored man, his fatb. ler supposed to have been an English man, ond bis mother a New Z aland woman. He is certainly sincere m his belief—that is, if we term monomania sincerity, since he spends the whole amount of his wages, we aro told, in 1 having his prophecies printed, and in | traveling around, dealing forth Lis warnings. He has even written to the Emperor of France, to request that a convocation of the crowned beads of Ku- { rope may be called to consider the sub- ; jeet, and assures us of the inteution to j travel to Washington city, as soon as his | contract expires with tho Springs, to j lay the matter beforo l’rcsident John- j son.

I.—Dear Sirs : During a residence of some ten years as a missionary in Siam and Cbtn*> I found your Vegetable Pain Killer a inott valuable remedy Lor that foarfn! scourge tbs cholera. In administering tbe medicine, J found it most effectual to give a tcaapoonful of Pain Killer in a gill of hot water sweet ened with sugar; then after about fifteen minutes, begin to give a (ableapoonful of tb® name mixture every minute until relief was obtained. Apply hot applications to the ex tremities. Bathe the stomach with Pain Kil ler, clear, and rub tbe limbs briskly. Ol ibos* who had the cholera aud look the medicine faithfully In the way stated above, eieht nuU of ten recovered. Truly yours, R. Telford.. In an attack with Diarrhoea, D yrenterv, •» Cramp Cholic, don’t delay the use of the Pa:a Killer. Sold by all medicina dealers. Trie® 25 cents, 50 cents and $1 per bottle. Swatow, China, Sept. 28, 1*66. Messrs. Perry Davis A Soli: Dear Sirs—l ought to have acknowledged long ago the box of Pain Killer you had tbe goodness to send us last year. Its coming was most prov idential. I believe hundreds of lives were saved, under God, by it. The eholera ap peared here soon after we received it. We resorted at once to the “Pair: Killer," nsfng as directed lor cholera. A list was kept of all to whom the “7'ain Killer” was given, siW our native assistants assures us that eight oat of every ten to whom it was prescribed re covered. It has, toe, been very useful in val - other diseases. It has proved an in cab oulable blessing to multitudes of poor people throughout all this region. Our native preset* era are never willing to go out on tbeirys* cur-ions without » supply of the “Pain Kill* er.” It gives them lavor in the eyes of to* people, and access to families aud localities by whom otherwise they would be indiffer ently received. Believe me, dear sir, grate fully aud faithfully youra, etc. J. M. Jcunson, Missionary in Luma* spr3o’Bßlv KAYTOX’S MAGIC CURE —*s a suiuuiqf louicdy aud cures bowel complaints.
