Pnrty nnd Principlm— The Truth Mpenk* for Itaeir— led Him AniMcr It. From Tiu^ilny’s Evening IIkh.vm*. To-morrow the candidate' of the pnrty which Hill Pledger has been pleased to call the rag-tag and bob- tail element, will be in our midst. All day long conjectures have been rife as to what sort of reception would be given him, but almost everybody agreed that in spite of the fact that the bitterest enmity has existed be tween him and the people of this sec tion on account of his inhumanity and reckless and unlawful plundering during the civil war, he should be ac corded a respectful hearing. Weaver’s manager? have refused a division of time with’ our most prom inent Democrats because, in their esti mation, the dignity of his position forbade the crossing of lances with one who was jtiol a candidate of a like de gree. They will gain nothing by this course. 11is character, which has al ready been extensively aired through t he medium of the press, would de tract whatever of force there might be in his harangue, were it*not already rendered weightless by the nature of the party and the folly of the prin ciples he represents. Some Ugly Fuel*. But what of this man who is coining among us—this political Demagogue who denies everything lie has ever done and asserts what he himself doesn’t believe? Those bits of history, his malicious slanders and tyrannical actions may be twice told tales, but they will bear repetition, if it he only as testimony to fasten the guilt where it belongs, and hold him up to the gaze of a peo ple upon whom lie had no mercy, and who will retaliate when the time comes for a public expression of their feel ings. Citations from his slanderous speeches have been numerously quoted, and they give a fair idea of the hate that was then rankling in the bosom of the speaker. A few extracts from speeches, which appear in the Con gressional Becord will not come amiss. One of his choice sentences, spoken at Oskaloosa, Iowa, in 1872, reads: No Hcpublicun can over* under any clrcum- stnncos, have any part or lot with the hungry, rebellion*, mundinting, woman •selling gang corporatcd under the name of Democracy. Another time in Iowa he said: I want to congratulate yon flrst, follow-citi zen*, on the 8upprcM*inu of u purely Democratic rebellion, gotten up by Democrats for the Dem ocratic purpose of dissevering this Union and perpetually establishing human slavery. These are not all. During his tyran nical reign in the .South he robbed and plundered many citizens, to whom he replied when they asked for vouchers for what he had taken, “I don’t give rebels in the South vouchers. I had rather furnish rope to hang every d—n one of them.” That occurred when Weaver Was nt.Pitlnaki, Teuu., in command of a troop of Federal sol diers wlio were there plundering the country nround. It was a mnsterly stroke of enter prise on the part of the Atlanta Jour nal when they sent to Pulaski and ob tained full and convincing proof of the tyranny of Weaver while in command at that point. The signa tures of the citizens are there, accom panied by sworn affidavits, and, above all, documents In Weaver’s own hand writing, which will admit of no denial. The counts in the indictment pre ferred by the people of Pulaski qgainst General (then Colonel) Weaver, are, briefly stated, as follows: That as commandant of the post nnd in consequence the supreme military authority for the time here, he was ar bitrary, tyrannical and unnecessarily severe in his treatment of the people. That he caused to be arrested and thrown Into the common prison stock ade, upright, reputable and law abid ing citizens whose only offense was their sympathy with the Confederate cause. That he robbed widows and other non-combatants of property not need ed for supplies for his army, and for which lie refused to give vouchers. That he extorted from various citi zens considerable sums of money, without any form of law, which money these citizens, to this day, flrmly be lieve was appropriated to Weaver’s own use and benefit. The proofs presented with the charges are sufficient for a full and speedy conviction. His appeal for new trin) which he is now making be fore the people of the country will never be sustained. He will carry the stamp of conviction upon his brow un til his death, and if it can be hindered by the people of the South lie will never hold office in this land. This is the man who has slandered, abused, reviled and cursed you; the man who has recklessly plundered helpless southern citizens whose only crime was that their sympathies were with the confederate cause. Patriots ail, patriots everywhere, will you give him your vote? As the cry resounds through the southern atmosphere, and strikes the uttermost walls around the States once UDited In a common cause, the eoho comes back full and clear: “Not if we know it.” Nearly all the Albanians who have been away from home this summer have retprned.

A Real Live Presidential Can- . didate Yisits Albany, He Is Accompanied by Mrs. Weaver and Mrs. i.ease —A Lively Day. SPEAKING AT THE MAYO. From Woilmjwiny’h Evening Herald, There is areal live Presidential can didate in Albany to-day. Gen. J. B. Weaver cauie in l’roin Way-! cross this afternoon at J1 o’clock on the ! B. & W, With him were Mrs. Weaver, Mrs. Mary K. Lea>e, the noted Third j Party female orator, and Mr. Dee Crandall of the “National View,” a Third Party organ published at. Wash ington, D. O., who D managing the party. Gen. Weaver amt his party drove to the Hotel Mayo, where they took quarters. On I he Ktl'CttN. ■ All day Iona: tile streets have been crowded with Third Partyltes from various parts of the district who have gathered here to the number of about 200 or more to hear their would-he President speak. Political arguments and discussions have been going on on the streets cor ners all day long, and some of them have grown very warm and then Hot. Time and again assertions have been made in regard to the Third Party strength in various sections; and time and again they have' been denied nnd redenled. ' The Committees In Coiifeeence. The committee of the Democrats is Messrs. J. W. Walters,H. M. McIntosh nnd Y. G. Bust, and that of the Third Party consists of Messrs. F, O. Jackson and Mobley, of Decatur county, ami Isrenl Maples of Mitchell. The Democratic committee proposed n division of time with the Third Par- tyites, but, that, of course, will he re fused, ns General Weaver will meet no one but a man of His own rank. If no other arrangement can be made they will ask to be allowed to put some questions to General Weaver. This will probably be refused also. Their course will then probably be to have an nddress made by Jack Car ter after Weaver and Mrs. Lease have finished their orations. No arranger meats have yet been made up to the time of going to press as the commit tees were still in conference. The Democrats think that they have a right to make some reply when Gen. Weaver comes into their midsl, where rtjjt a single. Third Party, mail is to be found, and attempts to make converts to his doctrine. The Mpcnkinx* The committees could not agree, and as the Third Partyltes smelt a rodent, they decided to have the speaking at the Hotel Mayo instead of at Willing ham's Hall. The crowd was soon gathered about the piazza and about 4:10 Gen. Weaver took the stand, having been intro duced by Mr. Aleck Jones of Tlinmas- ville. t Gen. Weaver greeted the orowd of assembled Georgians and then began his political harangue. He began by saying he advocated the Ocala platform through and through. Said he had been accused of hating the South, and saying harsh and slan derous things against its people. He admitted having made these speeches. He had been n member of the Re publican party, but when it went for capital and monopoly as did also the Democratic party he joined tile Third Party and had been with it ever since. Some one here called out. “Which party you ain't been in?” Weaver then went on to explain that he had never been in but two. The Greenback party and others were the same as of Peoples’ Party.' Weaver was interrupted frequent ly by cries from the audience, and all his appeals for quiet were useless. They hooted and yelled whenever they saw fit. Only the Third Partyltes ap plauded, and then very weakly. He asked a policeman to keep a man quiet but it no had no effect. Weaver then went on to explain about Pulaski. Gen. Dodge had been In command of the forces there. He, Weaver, had nothing to .do I with it, and was not responsible for the deeds of the soldiers. He took no man’s property while there, and boarded with the Ballantines, who always spoke kindly of him. Hq asked Hr. Horton, of the Journal, if he bad not told him, Weaver," that’he had found out that that was so. Mr. Horton arose and said that what he had published was on the authority of citizens of Pulaski, and that he had witli him the sworn affidavits that their testimony was true. At this the crowd almost went wild, and General Weaver ap pealed to the manhood, qf Georgians to keep quiet. He then' asked Mr. Horton if he had not made this state ment, to which Mr.. Horton, replied that people had told him things to that, effect. Weaver then told Mr. Horton to take Ills seat and keep quiet, to which Mr. Horton replied that ho would say what he pleased. Weaver then went on to deny by the wholesale the charges made against him in regard to oppressing Confederate soldiers. Whoever said lie had taken anybody’s property or put anybody in prison told a false hood. lie then went on to discuss the issues from a Third Prrty stand point ns usual. The' tariff anil the force hill were not the issues, it was the money question —labor against capital. He then said if tile crowd wanted to hear the lady she would speak. Some called for Mrs. Lease and some one yelled : "Don't want to hear the lady!” Mrs. Lease took the stand, however, without any Introduction as slie said she didn’t want any. Site quieted the crowd somewhat by her flattery of Georglansnml IheGeor- gia people, say that they lmd always respected tier. Someone in the crowd hooded, and she quietly said to lnm : “You're not a Georgian.” She then went on in Somewhat of an impassioned oratorical style to depict the so-called desolation of tho people, and to discuss the Issues of tlie day a In Third Pnrty. The crowd accorded her a respectful hearing. On account of the lateness of the hour the IIkiui.d was obliged to go to press at this juncture. THE DIE AWAY. OUR THIRD I'ART V VISITORS DU.

Weaver has departed, and Ims left mir fair city as lie found It—with no more Third Party sentiment than It lmd before he enme. Mrs. Lease was allowed to finish her address, yesterday, In comparative peace and quiet, Her flattery won the orowd so far ns order wns concerned, nnd when some one in the audience interrupted her once or twice she turned quickly and said: "You're not a Georgian.” After this she was interrupted very little nnd went on in her impnssioned sentimental style to depict the imagi nary woes that were stalking through the nation, and the brilliant, sugar coated nnd easily swallowed pills that tile Third Party had prepared to re move and remedy them. They I .eft. When slip had finished her speech tlie real, live presidential candidate, witli Ills alde-de-onmpB, picked up his duds nnd quickly withdrew to his quarters in the hotel, not caring to hear any replies that the Democrats might make. Cries of “Walters,” “Walters!" then rent the air. Col. Walters came for ward and announced that Jaek Carter was there and would reply to the would-be president nnd ids aide, Before Carter took the stand, how ever, Mr. Thad Horton, of the Atlanta Journal, stepped forward and said he wished to make a statement. He said that he held the sworn affi davits of the best oitizens of Pulaski, Tenn., to the facts concerning Weav er’s record there as published in the Journal, whioh were certainly far more reliable than any statement Gen. .Weaver might make from the stump in ills own interests. If they could not be relied on any oitizen was liable to be indicted for perjury; as these citizens lmd been by Weaver. Weaver admitted having extorted $2,000 from the people, which was, in itself, suffi cient condemnation of the man and his methods while there. Mr. Horton was loudly applauded by the people. Quite a number of the Third Partyltes remained to get a whiff of the delicious aftermath of the occasion. Carter tipealtM, Jack Carter then took tho stand to reply to Gen. Weaver. He stated, as before, that nationally, he was a Re publican, and was against the Third Party in any nnd every form. He waded into Weaver and Mrs. Lease in great style, and his remarks were interspersed with humor and wit which kept the crowd in a laugh. Jack made a good speech, and thor oughly refuted whatever of argament there might have been in the speeches of his antagonists.
