TO THE DEMOCRACY OF MCNCOCiEK
COUNTY.
•
Your Executive Committee feels
called upon by the necessities
of the hour to address a few
earnest words to you in behalf
of the welfare of the party and
the country. A national elec
tion ie very near at hand—on the 7th
of November, next, ("and wo bog you
to remember the dayj, a President
of the United States, and membors of
the National Congress are to be
elected. This imports much more
than selecting one or two men to fill
these places. The issue to bo deter
mined is, whether tho presont gov
ernment, inimicial to our best and
every intorest, shall be perpetuated
and fastened upon us indefinitely, or
whether we shall change it for a bet
ter state of affairs, with rulers known
and pledged to reform, not only to
matters of financial economy, but of
peace and domestic tranquility in
our own State and homes. We ap
prehend that our greatest danger is
from ourselves. . Ourovor-confldenco
engenders apathy, and apathy
threatens to compass our defeat. We
desire that no such complaint shall
be brought home to the doors of our
people when everything that is dear
and near to us is at stake.
Lot Louisiana’s fate and South Car
olina’s condition warn you not to lie
supinely-upon your backs until you
are bound hand and foot and the en
emy at your very door.
The enemy are organizing for your
defeat; meetings are being hold all
over your county unknown to you.
and emissaries are sent everywhere.
They are wide awake and intend to
contest every inch of ground at the
ballot box. Wo are apprehensive not
of defeat, except from your inactivity,
your want of interest in the coming
contest. Your past success is no safe
indemnity against future loss; di-
vision of race and party is too close
to excuse any Democrat from neglect
of duty at this juncture of our affairs.
One other thing we desire to say to
you. We earnestly appeal to you to
come up like true men to the sup
port of the regular nominees of your
party. Every sense of obligation,
good faith, policy, interest and duty
demand this at your hands. Your
neighbors, your representatives and
friends selected the standard-bearer
of your party. They were not the
representatives of cliques nor rings,
nor have they committed any fraud
upon you in selecting Hon. H. R. Har
ris for the national Congress.
Will you repudiate the action of
your people ? Will you brand these
honorable representatives of yours
as leaders of cliques and rings, and
unworthy to be trusted ? By eo do
ing the odium recoils upon your
selves, who gave them power and au
thority. Again, by giving your sup
port to an outside, self-chosen aspi
rant, you give aid and comfort to the
enemy. Would the election of an in
dependent candidate be a Demo
cratic triumph ? Will it not be a
Republican victory? The most
dangerous too Is he who comes in the
guise of friendship. Notorious Re
publican leaders advise their party
to support the Independent candidate
for Congress in this District, and
they are doing it with a will. Jeff
Long has been in our midst stirring
up the colored clement, and says,
Republicans elect Mr. Hilliard, the
Independent. His commands have
been sent throughout all your coun
ty and adjoining ones to his brethren
ta vote for the Independent. Locke,
the Republican Elector of this Dis
trict, and formerly the deleotabio
solicitor and supporter, of the notori
ous Judgo Kells of Eufaula celebrity,
has been doing his part to accomplish
the same end. It is upon these men
and their fellows that Mr. Hilliard
can auly hope for his strength and
support. Elected by their votes, he
will truly be Independent—lndepend
ent of the Democratic party—and
his obligation will be to them. Let
us not so gratify him and them, es
pecially when our regular nominee
is as good a man as the Independent.
He has had experience, knows,--
heretofore has, and hereafter will
serve you well and faithfully. He
has been tried and oan be trusted.
In conclusion, we again say, do
not stand idle and indifferent. Let
the young and the old, the merchant,
the mechanic, the farmer, the labor
er, the professional man, all give one
day to your country. Be on hand
the day of the election; remain at
the polls early and late. Tho very
presence of the men of character, in
telligence, property and honesty of
of the land will give might and exer
cise influence for good. Liberty and
prosperity can only be secured and
retained by eternal vigilance.
F. G. Wilkins,
Oh’n Dem. Ex. Com. of Muscogee.
—There were but two cases of small
pox officially reported as remaining in Sa
vannah on Wednesday.
ONt.Y GOOD GOVERNMENT NEEDED.
Though tho commerce of the coun
try has not yet recovered from tho
prostration caused by excessive spec
ulation and enormous debt, we have
abundant evidences of the recupera
tive resources of the peoplo and of
their ability with good management
to work out of all their financial
troubles. We need go no further
than to our own section for satisfac
tory proof of this. The South has
undoubtedly, by its agricultural pro
duction of this year, made a much
nearer approach than usual to rais
ing its own food supplies, and at the
samo time its production for sale—its
great cotton crop— has not been at all
diminished, while there has been an
increase in the sugar and rice crops,
also raised chiefly for sale. It is ob
vious that a persistence In this in
dustrial policy will very quickly work
out the restoration of the material
prosperity of tho South. There is
also gratifying evidence of improve
ment in many of the industries of
other sections, and in tho general
trade of the country.
And this has been effected with no
change whatever in the condition of
the national finances—with no im
provement in the value of the cur
rency, which is quoted at just about
the same figures as the quotations
two years ago—with no reduction of
the taxes of the people, and no re
trenchment in the expenses of the
Government-for the saving in appro
priations effected by the Democratic
House of Representatives has not
yet had time to work any improve
ment in the condition of the Federal
Treasury. It has boon effected not
withstanding the continued rule of a
party that perpetuates the bad feel
ings of tho war for party purposes,
and demoralizes labor by its schemes
to make disaffected politicians of a
class whoso needs at this time call
for the application of every energy
to tho bettering of their material and
Intellectual condition.
If the recuperative resources of the
country have been great enough to
effect even this improvement under
the mountain load of bad govern
ment which it has had to bear, how
much more can we count on improve
ment when a party pledged to Re
trenchment and Reform take the
reins of government! With a saving
of fifty millions of dollars a year in
the ordinary expenses of the Govern
ment—with a currency improved by
the substitution of real preparations
for resumptionjfor empty promises—
with the stamping out of the “whis
key rings,” “credit mobiliers” and
purchased subsidies that have dis
graced the present administration—
we would have the government in
harmony with the people in their
labors to overcome existing difficul
ties, instead of a clog to their exer
tions as tho present administration
is and has boen. Even if there were
no principle involved—no rights of
the people and the States involved
—the material considerations above
mentioned ought to arouse the peo
plo from one end of the country to
the other to a mighty and deter
mined effort for deliverance and pros
perity.
J. J. Pardee has made oath in New
York that on the 17th inst. he was
discharged from office under the
Treasury Department of the United
States, because tho Treasurer on the
13th inst. required him to vote tho
Republican ticket, and he refused.
The full official returns of the
Indiana election show that the Dem
ocratic majority on the State ticket
ranges from 5,100 to 7,377. The av
age is about 0,000. Though the ma
jority for Williams for Governor is
the smallest of any on the Demo
cratic State ticket, he received the
largest vote; but Harrison ran so far
ahead of his ticket as slightly to re
duce Williams’ majority below the
Democratic average. The vote for
the Independent ticket ranged from
12,071 to 10,011, being least for Gov
ernor.
Radical hypocrisy is shown up in
its true light by the evidence that
that party bribed the ‘‘Molly Ma
guire” murderers in Pennsylvania to
help it in the elections of last year.
It uses the army of the United States
to put down protended "ku-klux” in
the South, but bribes the Molly Ma
guires, who for so long a time caused
a reign of terror in the mining dis
tricts of Pennsylvania, to help it in
that State. Tho revelations made in
the Molly Maguire cases ought to
givo Pennsylvania to the Democrats.
It will if the Radicals are sincere in
their professions of opposition to vio
lence and fraud in carrying elections.
The New York World says: The
latest howl of theßepublicansisthat
many of the Southern States have
repudiated or inado default in paying
the interest on their debts. Inas
much as these debts, to the amount
of tens of millions of dollars, repre
sent not honest indebtedness but the
thefts of Itepublican carpet-baggers
—we will leave It, say, to Mr. Schurz,
if this is not the case—the assumption
of the Times is about as impudent a
thing as we know of. It could only
be equalled by the highwayman who,
having robbed a tenant bound to his
landlord to pay his quarter’s rent,
should attempt to rouse indignation
against his victim os a deliberate
swindler who sought to shirk pay
ment of his just debts!
—The News says that the city authori
ties of Savannah have received several
machines from a Western city, which the
sender claims will so thoroughly disinfect
a building that neither small pox or yel
low fever can exist in it after its use. The
machines havo been turned over to Dr. J.
McFarland, the Health Officer, who will
try their virtues on all buildings where
small pox patients have been treated.
—Jack Brown, a prominent negro politi
cian of Monroe county, and once a mem
ber of the Georgia Legislature, died of
heart disease a few days ago.
THE “MYHTRHIOE* LETTER*."
We copy from the Atlanta Constitu
tion a notice of a large number of
letters, purporting to come from Na
ples, Italy, with which Atlanta has
been flooded. Similar letters have
also been received In Columbus. We
saw one yesterday, directed to one of
our best known business firms The
Constitution has no doubt the correct
theory as to their purpose. Notonly
have the Federal offl beholders been
assessed, and the Federal money
used, to carry the coming Presiden
tial election, but the people are also
directly swindled out of money for a
corruption fund by means of such
letters. The letter shown to us is
precisely such a one as our Atlanta
cotemporary describes. It has no
postage stamp, either foreign or do
mestic, but has the New York stamp
and one hard to make out, but
supposed to bo Naples. Within
the New York stamp are the words
“10c. due,’’ which is collected from
the recipient, and applied as only the
Government officials know. That
the thing is done with the conni
vance of postofflee officials some
where, is evidenced by the absence
of any postage stamp on the enve
lopes. That the money collected in
the way of postage on them will ever
go into the revenue of the Postoffice
Department and be accounted for as
such, only a simpleton can believe.
The great number of them sent over
the country, too, proves that the ob
ject is to raise money by the collec
tion of the ten cents postago charged,
and no individual outside of the De
partment could possibly get posses
sion of tho money. That the Govern
ment is swindling the people out of
money with which to buy votes is
too palpable to be doubted.
CONDENSED GEORGIA NEWS.
—The News estimates that the gross re
ceipts of the Griffin Fair last week were
$3,000, and the expenses $2,100. leaving
about S9OO to pay additional improve
ments.
—Tho Dalton Enterprise says that the
murderer Edgar Willis has been
captured near Augusta, “where he awaits
the offer of a reward to secure.his pres

—Albany News, 26th: Hon. B. H. Hill,
tho Ajax of Democracy, passed through
our town yesterday, en route to Montl
cello, Fla., where he is to meet about 5,000
people at an old-fashioned barbecue.
—At a meeting of tho directors of the
Schofield rolling mill company at Atlanta,
last week, it was reported by the officers
that over $50,000 has been made since the
suspension of the company last year,
more than $30,000 of which has been ap
propriated to pay tlie old debts assumed
by tho new company.
—Tho Sandersville Herald says that
Hon. Neil McLeod, Senator elect from tho
Sixteenth District, has been a candidate
during his life eighteen times, and has
never been defeated. He has often repre
sented his county in the Legislature of
Georgia, and held other positions of .hon
or and trust.
—The Romo Courier says of tho Fair
progressing in its city: The stock at tho
Fair is superior to anything we havo seen
in tills State; hogs, cows, sheep and goats
all very fine. But we would especially
speak of the horses; never In tho State
has thero boen such a display of fine
horses, except at a State Fair, and never
surpassed by that.

The White Whale In the New York
Aqunrlum.
New Volk Cor. Chicago Tribune.]
Near the centre of the room is an
immense round tank, with glass sides,
raised above the floor to the height
of a man’s head. This tank holds
many thousand gallons of water,
aud it holds at present a good-sized
white whale. This tank alone cost
SB,OOO, the glass of its sides, clear ns
crystal, being fully an inch in thick
ness. The whale has cost not less
than SIO,OOO, having been forwarded
by an expedition sent out especially
to capture specimens for the aqua
rium, and which is now cruising on
the coast of Labrador. But I fear
this monster is short-lived. He had
rough usage on his way here, and is
not likely to survive. He was in a
freight-car jolting over a railroad for
six days, during which time, of
course, he was out of his native ele
ment. He was covered up with salt
weed, and occasionally salt-water
was thrown upon hi3 breathing ap
paratus, which was the nearest ap
proach he had to a “swim iu the
briny” during that long, and to hith,
novel ride. When he reached the
aquarium he was hoisted by a der
rick and deposited in this tank.
This treatment has not agreed with
him, and I fear he will not be alive
when this is printed. When I saw
him to-day his movements were slow
and loggy, and when he came lan
guidly to the surface for air he
sighed heavily, evidently wishing
that he was dead. Once or twice he
came almost belly up, and had a
hard struggle to right himself again,
and then would rest on the surface
and pant and “blow” unnaturally.
Poor thing! I pitied him. Unfort
unately we have no whale-doctors
to “minister to a mind diseased
but, should he die, I can assure him
there will be many mourners at
his funeral—.at least ten thousand
dollars worth.
Horrible Murder* In Mississippi.
Special to the N. O. Bulletin.]
Woodville, Miss., Oct. 21.—A Dep
uty Sheriff, who returned here to-day
from Perrytown, twenty-two miles
northeast of this place, reports that a
Mr. Sturdivant, wife and three chil
dren were inurdeqed in their beds
and the house burned to conceal the
horrible deed. Before his arrival two
negroes who planned and executed
this crime were captured, one hung
and the other shot in attempting to
escape. Two confederates are still
at large, but can hardly escapearrest.
Many colored citizens assisted in their
capture, and were with great difficul
ty prevented from throwing the
prisoners into tho burning embers.
