Blight Democratic Prospects.
Bedford Gazelle.
The prospects of democratic suc
cess at the coming election are
brightening every day T
thoughtful men of the re] uhlieau
party are tired of sectional strife
and sec no way to end it, save by
the election of the hero of Geltys
burg to 11 it; presidency. Prosper
ity for tne whole country cannot
eonie until sectional animosities
die out. The republican party
tenches the doctrine of hate. Ilate
your neighbors. Hate your broth
ers. The democratic party teach
es peace and good will to all sect
ions, states and people alike
Good men in the republican party
see and feel this and they will
vote for General Hancock.

He is law abiding, law loving

He has more friends, better and

The following words uttered by
Mr. Norwood in a recent speech,
are the embodiment of truth, and
should be pondered by every vo c
ter of Georgia, before he casts his
next ballot for Gove nor:—“Let
me say that governments were es
tablished to protect minorities.
Majorities need no protection.
They are the power to enforce the
execution of the laws. But in the
organization of government, in ar-
Tle is one of the foremost law
yers ot Georgia and a resident of
Savannah, lie is one who eonsid-
rs well and wisely any step he
undertakes. \\ lien determined
on a enu.-o lie is persistent and
fearless. He weighs carefully
every point in detail before a eon-
elusion is reached, and then lie
m unswerving in his course and
untiring in his efforts to sec
ure the object. Having reached
his fiftieth year on 20ili of last
April, he is now in the prime of
his intellectual manhood. He has
a sarcastic humor which is keenly
incisive, and in his hands it is a
powerful weapon. He is an able
strong man, no easy competitor,
lie will make a strong race and
has bright prospects of winning
At least his opponent will find no
quiet conquest but bo eonfrontei
at every point by one skilled in at
tack and defense.
Senator Norwood was horn in
Talbot county and received an
academic education in Cullodeii,
Monroe county, and graduated at
mory College in 1849, when
twenty years of age. Ho was ad
mitted to the practice of law in
1852, and that spring removed t
Savannah, where he lias pursue
his profession since. He was a
member of the legislature in 1861
—’2, was elected United States
senator on November 14th, 1871,
mid after a contest with Foster,
Blodgett,was admitted to his seat
Dee, I9H1, 1871. In Jan, 1877,he
was defeated for re-election to the
senate by Hon. B. II. Hill, the
filial vote standing Norwood SO,
Hill 114, and scattering 11.
In the senate lie made reputa
tion as one of the most able nut
inlhieneial members of the body,
celebrated for the scathing satire
and dry humor for which we have
spoken. He is a strong dehator.
Since his retirement from the sen
