THEY ARE ON “A STILL HUNT” To Elect Their Candidate, Judge Haight to Congress. Organiz¬ ing Campaign Clubs,etc. The Republicans are hard at work in the interest of their candidate, Judge Haight, for congress. They have issued a circular to the negroes, calling on them to vote against the alliance candidate, Col. Livingston. They seem to he very bitterly opposed to the alliance be¬ cause of some resolutions passed by the alliance at Edgewood in favor of the money paid by the whites to educate white children and the money paid by the colored peo¬ ple to educate their own children. They are using this to catch the colored voters. They seem to have taken a lesson from some of the “Jeffersonian Dem¬ ocrats” and are particularly fight¬ ing the alliance. If Haight is elected it means high tariff on the necessaries of life, and the bayonet rule. Can any Dem¬ ocrat remain away from the polls when the country is threatened with such evils ? We know there are some demo¬ crats personally opposed to Col. Livingston but that is not a sufficient reason why they should not vote for him now; ho has been honestly nominated, and, as the nominee, ho should receive the vote of every Democrat in this district. The place to seti le our personal choice as dem drrats is in the primary election. The Republicans have canvassed this county from one end to the oth¬ er—they are at work, bnt are very quiet about it. We learn that they have also canvassed and are still canvassing every county in the dis¬ trict . The republicans held a meeting in Lithonia Friday night, last, and or¬ ganized a campaign club of some 40 members, and many more names will be added to the club. Besides all this, they (the Repub¬ licans) havo raised a campaign fund among themselves, nnd are also be¬ ing furnished with “boodle" from nothing Washington undone City. to elect Tliqv their w ill lyave man, Judge Haight, for congress. In the face of all these facts, and they are facts, any Democrat who refuses to vote for Col. Livingston* although he may believe differently, in a certain sense aids and encour¬ ages Republicanism. These are hard words, but they are, nevertheless, trne.—Can you, as a democrat, re¬ fuse, under the circumstances, to support Col. Livingston ? Col. Livingston is diivji) the hands of the Democratic part}-. If he is defeated it injures the party and not Livingston. Col. Living¬ ston went before the voters in a pri¬ mary and he won the victory—his candidacy is now in the hands of Democrats, and it is a duty they owe Col. Livingston, as well as the party, to elect him to Congress. Let every truo Democrat go to the polls and vote for Democracy— vote in favor of good government— for tariff reform and against the force bill. If the Republicans win, it means higher taxes, the force bill and a cor¬ rupt administration. We have done our duty ju warn¬ ing you of the state of affairs as they exist—now, as Democrats, do your duty by casting your vote for Col. Livingston next Tuesday. % McEiree’s Wine of Cr.rdui and THEDFORD’S BUCK-DRAUGHT are for sale by the following merchants in DeKaib County: H. W. Gibbs Sc Co., Lithonia. Callaway & Son, Lithoiin. . J.

This unexpected cal! upon the Squire to exercise the. functions and preroga¬ tives of bis lUficial capacity, found him very greatly won piused. The first thing that occurred to his mind, was that he had a Methodist di« cipiiue that contained a marriage cere¬ mony, and for which he began to make a vigorous search, tumbling the books pell-mell over and over in rapid suc¬ cession; then across the room kicking over chalre^pnd tables, to the bureau drawers loading e\4-r up the citofching, and squalling and anon, “Mary, where is that disAtiue?” Failing la find the much desired book he simtchaHup his 1 criminal docket— scanning fflarough hastily, discoveilng diUjgjlMtesoived notbingloielieve hint lu his wretched that a man of his liujrfj,■<*?$■■ Plec.il ab.il 11 \ *ta 1 uerosWi^BWSkle off his t a^oached of his the hair, room, spit pulled in his hands, an#-ordered the couple to march out. lie then proceeded with a few broken sentences and prouounced them man and wife.

U.llltASWEU.. FROM INDIAN- TERRITORY. About iv year ago I had a severe at¬ tack of Bronchitis, mid 1 used many of the popular lung remedies of tho day without relief. Some of tho physicians whom I called said I had consumption, and that my case was incurable, and that I must die. Late last fall I met Dr. Norman who cave me a fifty cent bottle of f)r. While’s Pulmonnria, nnd stnted that he hnd used itiuhis practice for several years, and had never known it to fall to do all that was claimed for it. Now, candor admonishes me to tes¬ tify in its favor. This one bottle that I received from l)r. Normau gave me more relief than all the other remedies and proscriptions I had heretofre used. After using three more of the dollar bottles I v'iv 8 pronounced cured. Titos. K. I’astki.l, Echo, Cherokee Nation, li.dau Ter. For sale by J. 0. Johnson. PHILADELPHIA NOTES. Correspondence New Era.
