The press of the State, almoat with out exception, to gratify the passions of an excited army of unscrupulous poli tician*, hat befouled itself by vehicling bilingsgate aud slander to the people. Where facts cannot be found sufficient to traduce the character of any public man, those who are opposed to his election, or to that of another whose claims he may be advocating, do not hesitate to resort to vague insinuations, which are reiterated, added to and shaped to suit all sorts of circumstances, until made to answer the vile purposes for which they are originated.

Spence is exactly on the right line now, and no doubt will remain there. prejudice them against our system of elections am^cneral form of govern ment. The result is, our best men will have nothing to do with politics, and the country is completely at the mercy of professional politicians. There i- but one remedy for this great and growing evil, and it rests alone in the hands of the common peo ple. Capt. Smith’* Letter. We publish elsewhere a most timely and patriotic letter from our retiring Congressman, Hon. W. E. Smith, in re gard to the canTass in the Second Dis trict. Like everything else of apoliti cal nature, that we have ever seen, emi- nating from Capt. Smith, this letter has the ring of true metal, and breathe* genuine Democracy. We are glad that Capt. Smith has seen fit to write such a letter, for we believe that it will have a good eff ct upon the Democracy of the District just at this time, when, in our opinion, something is needful to awaken them to a proper appreciation of the situa tion and a tree sense of duty. Of all o en in the Second Congrcssion.1 Dis trict, Capt Smith ought to be best ac quainted with the relative strength of the two political parties, and most capa ble of pointing out the dangers that lie in the way of Democratic success in November. It was he who redeemed the District from the strong clutches or Radicalism in 1874, and afterwards drove the wily and treacherous Radi cal leadeSf'Whiteljr, fooni his boasted domain. In his hands the Democratic banner has been safely canicd to vic tory through three consecutive contests, and he ought, hy this time, to be able to estimate the strength of the Radical party of the District with something like ircurtcy. With bis thorough acquaintance with the District and the experience that he has had in politics, Capt. Smith is evi dently of the opinion that to place the result of the November election beyond doubt, the Democracy must not only be united, but must enter the contest with such seal as will procure votes from the ranks of the opposie party.— We commend his letter to the careful perusal and consideration pf every gressiosal (Invars. Hon. W. B. Smith. Albany, Ga., Sept. 23,1880. Editors News and Advertiser: I havo just read the opportune article in Wednesday's issuo of your paper*! t > the duty of Democrats and tho Dem ocratic party. I concur fully with you in your views. We can elect Capt. Turner with cue Dy a majority of at least 6,000 votes. But to do this every Democrat in the District must vote, and we must draw votes also from the Re publican party. The importance of electing Capt. Turner cannot be over estimated. We have in the llouae of Representatives a majority ranging from ■even to twelve. I might say a relia ble majority of six. The loss of four members in tbe next House would turn the Treasury of the United States over to the. Republican party. This, in my judgwont, would bo a great calamity. We hope and expect Hancock will bo elected. But be will not be ablo to do us any great good if we lose the House. We have seen whatm (rower in the gov ernment tlie Houso is. We have seen the House of Representatives in the 44th Congress reduce national expenses very greatly in defiance of a Republi can President and Senate. To lose the House, in my judgment, though wc elect the President, is to yield the fruits of our victory. It will bo the sem blance of a victory with us, and a sub stantia! one with the Republican party. We must expect our political enemies be alive to the importance of securing the next House, and we might as well anitc at once and use all lawful and honorable means to elect our candi dates. The R -publicans, though divided, can do much to heal their dissensions, and ordinary prudence would admonish us to swell our vote to tiro uttermost Let it be remembered that every Dem ocrat who stays away from the polls and fails or refuses to vote, is really helping Mr. Briuiberry. We must have every Democratic vote and every conservative vote in the Republican party in the District - The position of Capt Turner on the Gubernatorial election (I do not know what it is, nor do I care) should not prevent his getting the full vote of the party. He represent* us in National politics, and he is fully identified with u*, fairly and squarely on all these great issues. For one I would feel de -ply mortified if, for any cause, the Second District should fail in this con test to sustain our standard bearer. I especially appeal to my personal friends throughout the District—to whom uo one can be more grateful than myself, and for whose confidence and support no one can have a greater ap preciation and regard— to devote them selves with the same energy and suc cess for Capt. Turner as they have in three elections for me. Should we lose the next Honse, let it not be said that the Democratic party of the Second Congressional District contributed in any respect to the great disaster. W. E. Smith. W. E. & R. J.
