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 more modest, more wor thy, more truthful. Ho is more patriotic, oftener and longer. 11c is wiser, calmer, more cour ageous. He is law abiding, law loving law protecting. He has more friends, better and stronger. 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.
