THE ELECTION.
Before our next issue the election for
Governor, Sta’e House officers, State
Senator and Repi esentatives will have
passed. We havo heard some voters
say that they had not yet made up
t,h?ir minds for whom they would
vote This is all wrong; every voter
shou d examine the list of candidates
with a close inspection, and come to
the po j s \viT. his mind made up and
his cho c • fixed. The indecision of
the voter rendi rs him a “floater,” and
lie boc< mes the only hope of the polit
ical tricks er and demagogue, who by
insidious arguments or any unscrupulous
means within his power, may cause the
undetermined vo*er to c st his ballot,
on the impuLe of the moment in a man
ner that will cause him vain regrets in
a few hours after. It is not only a duty
th ,i every citizen should vote, but a
duty .b t he should come prepa.ed to
vote in clligentlv. One word more on
this point. Every voter must examine
his •icke* wi h care, to see that there is
no irregularity in it, as there arc ru
mors already afloat th.it the “bosses”
will be on band, who will throw out
every vo e which shows t! e most trivial
irregularity on iis face—unless cast as
they d sire it.
Let every true. Democrat come out,
and come prepared to give Mr. Ste
phens a hearty and solid support. For,
while we have never doubted his trium
phant e.ectiou, it is necessary that, the
Democrats of Georgia should learn
such political adve iturers and office
seekers as Gartrell that they cannot
over-ride the will of the people by as
turning a new and d ngcrous form of
“bossisui.” Mr. Stephens was nomi
nated by a covention which exprtssed
the wi.l of the people of Georgia—and
Mr. Stephens was their choice. No in
dividual pruerences can or must be
allowed to divert, a s : ngle voter from
doing his duty, and no mie Deinociat
will ab ent lmnse’f from the polls when
lie appreciates the election next, Wed*
nesday at its true value, and recognize*
in it a struggle for the very life and
] rinciples »t the Democratic pariy in
Geoigin. Let us then not only defeat
them, but let us give them such a Wa
terloo that hope of success will never
more animate the breast of the most
sanguine Republican in the land.
OF.Y. i;AH THELL IN 18VO.
public will understand that I never
made any such charge. Yet, I cannot
see how Mr. Wallace, the editor of the
Critic can grout so indignant at the
charge when the charge was openly and
notoriously made in this same Critic,
on the 29th day of July, 1880, and
while Mr. Wallace disclaimed any per.
sonal responsibility for the charge
made, yet in an editorial of the same
issue he says that the author is a per
fectly reliable man, responsible, and a
gallant Confederate soldier in Genera^
Gartrell’s old regiment, the 7th Geor
gia. Now, I call upon an enlightened
public to say who has done General
Gartiell the greatest wrong, the man
who charges him with a want of alle
giance to the Democratic party, or the
man who endorses tho reliability of
the man who charges tho G enera l with
cowardice ? “Bring in another horse.”

THE CEETIFICTE.
[ Copy.)
This is to certify that I was a candi
date on ibe Democratic ticket for the
office of Tax Receiver during the elec
tion of 1870. During this election
Gen. L. J. Gartrell was pushing the
negroes up to the polls to vote against,
the Democratic ticket. Gen. Whit
Anderson, who was at that time Mar
shal of the city of Atlanta, said to Gen.
Gartrell in my presence, “General you
o ght to be ashamed of yourself. The
South has honored you in the past, and
here you are now working against your
race and color. I am expecting a riot,
and I think you will be the first shot.”
About this time a pistol was fired on
the other side of the Court House and
Gen. Gat troll Eft, or at least, I saw
no. king more of him.

MONSTER RAILROAD SHOWS.
Augusta Chronicle.
Editors Chronicle : In my card
of last Tuesday, I endeavored to show
that I did not intend to do Gen. Gar
trell any injustice in my Market Hall
s c eh. Sineo the publication of my
i iird I have received a certificate from
a nuizen ot Atlanta, which fully bears
me out in the charge which 1 made, that
• fen. Gartrell stood at the polls in At
lanta during the election of 1870, and
v irked against the Democratic ticket.
1 le ts© publish it.
In a paper known as the Critic, pub
lished I am told, in Atlanta, in last
week’s issue 1 was obliged with wan
ton lying in saying that Guperal Gur-
trell deserted the battlefield. The
The newest as weli as the mo6t colos
sal of all amusement enterprises will
positively exhibit in W aynosbo.o oil
Tuesday, Oct. 24th.
It is the best advertised show that
has evtr been announced here. Not
only are its bright and costly pictori
als d.splayed on every side, for miles
and nuies around, and i.istrated news
paper and programmes scattered like
snow flakes, but there is a solid maimer
of presenting its claims which com
mands attention and begets confidence.
It is conspicuous for not indulg ng in
stale, dishonest “aggregation,” ‘ alii
anct“combination,” and ‘ twelve
shows-in one” clap-trap, which has al
ways proved a delusion and a snare, and
involves such preposterous claims as to
utterly discredit itself with all except
fools. On the con.rury, it assumes
only to be one new and great show,
which is the best of reasons fur believ
ing it to be so. Neither does it ic
sort to manufactured names and pur
posely mixed and vague generalities
and figures, iu order to couvey the
swindling iuipresion that it has rare at-
trac ions, which in fact have no hon
est existence.
Its attractions aro multifarious as
well as novei, and it is a matter of sur
prise how many strictly new features
can be crowded in u single exhibition.
Zebras broken to perform incredible
feats, hurdle-leaping reindeer, giraffes,
harnessed to Roman racing chariots,
Hardman’s steam air-ship in operation,
a man sized riding cynooephalus, elks
harnessed tandem, ten funny clowns in
simultaneous rivalry, high and long
distance double somersault leupers,
peerless exploits in the gymnasium, ex
traordinarily trained
horses, comical selnol of monkey come
dians, monster li dug White Nile Hip
popotamus, extraordinary feats of hur-
culean strength, deeds oi masculine and
feminine intrepidity, and, iu fact, so
great aD array of noveltier, and sur
prises that it would transcend the limits
of a newspaper no ice to give them even
die briefest mention. 4 he s reefc pu-
rado is commensurate in •migniiudo and
grandeur with the exhibition, and intro
duces among other attractions, thirty
Arabian camels, decorated in ihorichest
and most costly trappings and mounted
by native Mohamodans.
To the Voters :f Burke County:
—I \wv*'\-)y formally announce myself
a candidate l«>r Representative in the
next Legislature of Georgia, at the
ensuing election to he held on the
4th day of October next, and respect
fully solicit the suffrage'? oi the peo
ple. If elected I shall represent
every interest of the county fairly and
impartially, to the best of my ability,
without regard to party. In accord
ance with a resolution adopted by
the colored voters » f this county on
the 26th day of August, ult., to-wit:
* * * * * * *
“That we are ready and willing to
support for the L gislature one Re
publican, whom we have indorsed,
and two liberal, broadminded, pro
gressive Democrats., who are willing
to legislate for all cla ses of the peo
ple of the county without regard ta>
parly, that we do this in a spirit of
compromise and kindJeeling toward
all our fellow-citizims of Burke
county, and with a further view of
harmony and the obliteration forever
of the color line.”
>8 * * * * * *
I /shall give my cheerful support
to Messrs. E. A. Perkirs and Pater
son D. Cox as candidates for Repre
sentative, believing that, they arc
liberal and broadminded Democrats,
and if elected would co.-operate with
the progressive men in Georgia t«»
bring about such legislation as w< u ! d
redound to the material gnfwth oi
the State and of lasting benefits to
the whole people. I most respect
fully commend their candidacy to the
favorable consideration of all the
voters of the county.
