Mr, Hoyle. Pulton county's Tax Col¬
lector ia in Sin Francisco, making- a
strong fight in self defence.
Terrilbe storm near Dalton two
weeks ago, which resulted in demolish¬
ing many buildings, aud much personal
injury,
THE WflEITE COUNTY BANANZA.
Tbe Messrs. Lucusdsn, Jesse and
Jobe, have found and are now operating
on the richest.mine perhaps ever discov¬
ered in North . ast Georgia. They have
with two hands, taken out near three
thousand pennyweights of gold nuggets
in less than three reeks, making over
one hundred dwts per day to the hand.
Two of the pieces weighing over 300
dwts a piece. The prospect for future
operations is equally as good. Tbe
mine is on the John L. Richardson
property. Who can beat this?
For tho Advertiser.]
Mr. Editor, Dear sir; in your issu e
of third inst., I notice an editorial head¬
ed “Ulysses S. Gr. nt," in which -you
express the opinion that Grant does not
desire to bo president a third term.
You in the same editorial characterize
all who express a coutiary opinion as
mere pigmies. (This to me seems very
strange in one who some time agp an¬
nounced that he was a democrat,) god
advise lhat Grant be let alone. Now,
Mr. Editor, what do you meau by the
words let .Grant alone ? Do you mean
Jo praise him? Who overturned by
bayonets tho State Governments of
Mississippi, Arkansas and Louisiana?
It would seem that you meaD that the
public acts of Grant should not be dis¬
cussed ia the public journals of tho
country, but that he should be held up as
a model of patriotism aud true wisdom.
(Those who say to the contrary are
mere pigmies) that is the Democratic
journals all are mere pigmies. Wow
Mr- Editor let us see what Mr. J. B.
Henderson ex U. S. senator, a leading
Republican from Missouri in regard to
the third term and the overturning of
the state Governments, Mr- Hender
eon, though a republican still adheres to
the old democratic ideas of government,
He believes in legal constitutional meth
od£, £i;<l baa faith in the virtue of dem
ocratic institutions, and in the capacity
of the people for local eelfsgovermneut,
without the aid of the army, and the
despotic supervision of a “at.rong man”
iu the executive chair, or a paternal
system of administration t,hat shall taka
protective cognizance of the people.
On this point Mr Henderson saR:
“Tae theory of our government 13 that each
rtate is admitted upon cqnaiuy with thaotherB
and tbs people of each; and the noonlo of
each must regulate their own local or interna!
akairs. lhe lows of Congress operate upon
tbo individual and not upon the state. Fed ■
era! courts are appointed to administer, and
fade al marshals to execute these laws. It is
lima enough to eall armies when these officials
•are resisted. It is for tho people of each
state to determine who shall bo ns governor,
and who shall administer Its looai laws. I
admire the settlement recently made iu the
state of Maine. 1 do not adteiro federal in
lerfareoce as-formally made in Lonieiaua,
Swippi, for Arkansas and other Southern
I one am not ashamed to confess that 1
am tired of these military methods. I long
tor the supreme rule of the civil power, and if
this to treason to party tho traitors will soon
triumph, and tbe party, oease to exist.
ADer reciting the a Ui-ibird term resolutions
-.fiho Republican e onventions of New
J-'euusylvauia, Henderson and other states in 1875. Mr.
continued ;
“In this connection it sboHld not be forgot
■ton that tbe resolutionsof Ohio andNcw York,
and also that of tbe Mouse of Representative!;,
wore parsed in tbe face of tho petulant lecture
read by General Grant to tho Pennsylvania
convention on the 23fb of May, iS7o, when
be substantially informed Geaeral White, tbe
president of the convention, that be regarded
It aa imp fr.iaant for mast; meetings to discuss
tb i question of a third term—tbat such a dis
cession was only proper when on a resolution
of amendment to the constitution. He, in
up aGboTosit'iun n creatx^l‘^x^pr^as ly* *oAim
gelf (alluding to the position of general of the
armyj, in order to become president; tbat this
cry of -Caosansm proposed to turn him out
of otfiee entirely; that bo needed the emoln
meats of office, and if retired at all it should
be with lank and pay. He then made this
ominous and to me most remarkable sugges¬
tion: “It may happen in the future history of
tbe country that to change an exeoutive be
cause bo has been eight years in office will
prove unfortunate if not disastrous."
"Ibis is tbe same argument that strugviine
pooplo have been called to meet from tfce be¬
ginning or government. It is the specious
lie upou which monarchies and aristocracies
are built. It is The chief stone upon which
rests all opposition to republican instjjntjons.
In oor ca:o it s«ggests tbat out of 50,600,000
pooplo there may be but one wbo oonld nro
test the publlo weal. I* denies the principle
of self-government,.and flies in tho faoe af'di
wine truth, tbat “in the multitude of ocunset- *
ors is safety "
•Ttgraciously admits that for ordinary eeoa-
si<ias and in peaceful times, the masse? may
j„ possibly know what is best for themselves;
lt in periods Of danger, when great and mo¬
mentous interests are at stake, when excite¬
ment has overwhelmed the average mind, it
needs th„ strong hand, the cool head and the
patriotic heart of some superior mortal to
protect the lights of the ignorant masses.’'
Subscriber.
For fear that some of our readers may
misapprehend the intent of the article
alluded to we publish the above, (which
misrepresents us,) aud answer the quea
tions propouuded. As for what bis
beloved republicau, Mr. Henderson says,
it has nothing to do with our opinion.
And a 3 for “Subscribers" intimation
I tbat we have departed from our detno
j eratic announcement, we are willing to
! compare records with him. The writer
of the above a 9 ks, “what do you mean
by the words, let Grant alone?" We meau
this, that Graut would be hurried po¬
litically if the newspapers of the United
States wouj.d quit printing bis name.
He asks, -‘who overturned the govern
| meats of Mississippi, Arkansas, and
1 Louisiana ? ' We answer, Ulysses S.
' Grant. Tbe writer “It
says,
seem you mean that the public acts
I of Grant should not. be discussed by
the public journals of the country, and
that be should be held up as a mode! of
patriotism aud true wisdom,”. Wo did
not say so, nor do we mean to say so.
We do not, nor we did net praise Grant
in the article alluded to. Our object
was to bgry G.ant in a political grave,
by asking that ho be let alone in the
public prints- If “Subscriber'’ wants
to make a light, let him go to work
and defend the public journals of the
whole country, for our attack was upon
the newspapers for their useless discus’,
ion of this one man. So much will be
sufficient to set us right before the pub¬
lic.
For the Advertiser.]
Mr. Editor: I notice in your issue of
the 3rd Inst., an article under the Edi¬
torial head in reference to Uiyses S.
Grant. I am truly sorry as well as sur¬
prised. that you would publish such an
article. I have no objection to Gen.
Grant retiring from the political arena,
but to say that the “newspaper editors
of this country may be compared to a
lot of pigmies that stand about the
knees of some (Grant) Giant examining
his shoe buckles and waiting with ab¬
ject patience for any utterance that hap
| peas to fall from the giant's lips,” can
i not pass without an objection. What do
; you mean when you say “when the
! great statue open 3 its mouth the little
pigmies run with the news to the four
quarters of the empire?" What do you
mean by “ statueV' What do you mean
• b y empire!’ Do you mean that Geo,
! Grant is an image that reflects through
this empire ? We have been taught
’ this government is a union of states and
notan empire. That is just why we
oppose Gen. Grant, because ho is for a
1 strong government. We think that one
' ob , . , had , , . “foreign . lands , , .
: J eCt !D ™«tlOg '
wao to be better prepared to make our
government stronger, if he were again
made President. If Uiyses S. would
not accept tho nomination why does he
; let his namo go before the nominating
; conventions of the country. He has
not raised a single objection as far as I
have seen. Why does be not say tha c
j does , U f »t * want to be , president, .. . 1 ,
j cannot think that either the pigtmo ed-
1
itors or citizens of this country desire
to bow tbe knee to the great giant.
i Let us have peace.

We are jnst . . as a firm m curaemccracy j
as we have ever been. Olir fight has
been with the the newspapers, and not
in tbe praise of Ulysses S, Grant, but
with a view to silence the Grant “boom.’
It is our privilege as well as our duty, to
rebuke that which wo believe to bo

be prominent iq all that we do or say;
and let not our party ambition de¬
throne our good judgment. And we
do believe that the Press ia doing
wrong in their continual booming about
Grant. Let him aione and let him re¬
tire to his home in peace
Now, we say, “let us have peace.”
