What Tiioiijrtii l l>|ieriiioHl la the
Amrrlran Hind T
Without controversy tho question
of tho election of Presidont hy the
actual vote of tho thirty-eight States
on the 7th lust, was settled for Tll
den and Hendricks. This la the ver
dict of every Informed and thinking
mind in the land, from Maine to Cal
ifornia.
This conviction uow amounts to
actual knowledge, and those who are
found bold enough to deny it—and
there arc such—do so without risk
ing their reputation for common
sense by backing up the denial by an
assertfon of thin argument, but by
relyiug upon a partisan trick, by
which the result of the late election
is to be converted from a defeat into
a victory - . Power, like crimi
nal life, is yielded reluctantly.
Universally the popular mind re
cognizes the fact thatTilden is elect
ed. But that is composod history;
the public mind is at rest on that.
That thought, then, is in tho back
ground, and subordinate to the one
of far more importance, whom will
fraud count in and whom will it
oount out ? Nay, even that has
almost lost its importance, since to
the majority of minds that too is
settled. It has been patent for some
time who must be counted in to suit
Caesar. Those pliant mechanisms
of fraud, the canvassing and return
ing boards in the three bayonetted
Btatea, are “sharp and quick” to
count In Hayes and a Radioal major
ity of the incoming Congress. All
this the'public mind comprehends,
and has taken os the inevitable; but
a far greater thought looms up, of
the national record on and after the
4th of March, 1877. Under the sham
ot fraud and form Hayes will be
prima facie the successful candidate.
But what gives the whole nation un
rest is, “who will perform the func
tions of President ? or shall we have
a dictator ?”
Will the Democratic House jxsrmlt
the goldea opportunity to slip them
of quieting tho country by rejecting
the count of the fraudulent canvass
ed States and assuming the power to
choose the known preference of the
people, tle actually elected Presi
dent?
Will all quietly submit to the legal
forms, covered over with badges of
fraud, and quietly see Hayes inaug
urated ; and take satisfaction for the
next four years amid the national
dishonor and degeneracy, in call
ing Hayes "Kellogg Hayes” and
“Returning Board Hayes hard
names.
Will Congress fail to do anything,
and the Ith of March find the nation
without a President, iu Grant’s
hands, who will then be absolutely a
private citizen, with no more right to
hold the office thun any man who
might presume to do so ?
Will Sherman, as Liouri General,
assume tho control and hold 'until
Congress, or he sees lit to determine
who is President, or whether we
need another President?
Will tho Lower House meet and
organize with the actually chosen
Democratic members from the throt
tled States, or will the iron heel of
the soldier tramp the hallsof the na
tion’s oapitol and force the people’s
choice from their seats, and seat
those counted in by the Returning
Boards; where a fitter place for tho
soldier with his bayonet than in the
halls of Congress, since he has found
hia way into the legislative halls of
sovereign States? The creature is no
better than the creator.
Who shall tell the issue of these
things? Who will prove the great
paciflator? Who will be the arbiter?
Who dictator, if one must be? An
tiquity presents many a precedent of
the need and appointment of one
nay, even the assumption of the office
is not, without example. W T ho shall
desecrate the cnpttol in the first year
of the second century of national
life with tho tramp of armed men?
Name the man to-day and hewdll rei
ply: “Ist. Is thy servant a dog that
he shall do these things.” Yet, on
the 4th of March he will shout, For
ward Battalions,” with as steady a
nerve as if Brutus’ and Casea’s blade
waited him not at the foot of Pom
pey’s Statue. ”
These thoughts disturb the public
mind. Trade has closed its channels
and confidence has shrunk into tear.
So intimately associated are our
people of both parties, no sectional
or geographical limit separating the
parties, that to talk of war and blood
shed as the result of this Presidential
impleasantoes is an argument a
priori of a man’s insanity. Where
can the first blood be spilled? Where
can the claus gather? To support
them they must be quartered in their
own or neighbors’houses. Tqwn must
war against itself, and Stnto against
its own inhabitants. No North, no
South, now. A man’s foes must be
of his own household. The dagger
must be plunged by each man into
his own bosom. Strange fanaticism
to think of war! The wish is the
father of the thought, to him who
dreams of such a thing. He is a
madman, a rash and foolish dreamer.
, And yet, Roman eagles were planted
against the eternal city. The heart
of Paris has poured its life blood
into the hungry mouths of its own
populace. England has scars to re
member the wars of the races. Dan
ger! danger! a fresh sent of blood is
in the air. This is the thought that
Ls the uppermost In men’s minds.

HOW TJIET DISCUSS THE SITUATION.
The Cincinnati Inquirer of Thurs
jday publishes a full report of tho
! meeting of tho Ohio State Demo
cratic Central Committee at Colum
bus on Wednesday.
Tho meeting was very full, attend
ed by the representative men of the
party, being nearly as large as a full
State Convention. John G. Thomp
son called the meeting to order, and
presided.
Tho committee to druft resolutions
was composed of the following dis
tinguished gentlemen: Gon. Thomas
Ewing, Gen. George W. Morgan,
Hon Geo. H. Pendleton, Gon. Durbin
Ward, Gen. A. J. Warner, Gen.
Aquila Wiley and Hon. D. A. Houck.
The following arc the resolutions
reported.
"Resolved, That patriotism demands of
every good citizen a spirit of ready acqui
escence in the result of the Presidential
election os fairly ascertained, and we dep
rwato all partisan feeling in the discussion
of fact and law on which that result de-
P 6, ‘ l ßesolved , Tlint it is due to the peoplo
and it Is indispensable to the preservation
of a free government, that tne President
shall not t>e chosen by fraud or force.
We appeal to tho officers charged with
canvussing the vote and making returns
to allay public apprehension and suspicion
by open and Impartial action, thus com
mending tho cordial acquiescence of the
American people; butadmonishodby post
action of the present Returning board in
Louisiana that such returns may be falsely
and fraudulently made, wo demand of the
Senate and House of .Representatives to
exert, if necessary, the constitutional
powers vested in them, jointly or sever
ally, to the end that whoever lias been
fairly chosen by tho people shall be declar
ed and Inaugurated Presidont of tho
United States.
"Resolved, That we regard the concen
tration of regular troops at Washington
by the President on the eve of the assem
bling of Congress as an act calculated to
throw discredit upon the disposition of
the people to obey the law and submit to
the results of the Presidential election as
legally ascertained, and to excite unneces
sary alarm as to the stability of the Re
public, thereby imperiling tho peace at
home and public credit abroad.
"Resolved, That, we recommend to the
Democratic Central Committee of the
State to correspond hnd confer witli other
State Democratic Committees of the
country with a view to a full understand
ing of the facts and perfect concert of
action in maintaining the rights of the
people In the late Presidential election, as
determined by proper legal authorities."
The reading of til resolutions
elicited "great applause, particularly
the second one, at which the crowd
cheered and cheered to the echo.
After reading them, Gen, Ewing
moved tho adoption of the resolu
tions, and it was done with tremen
dous cheers, there being no dissent
ing voices.
Hon. George H. Pendleton was the
first speaker, called up by a loud
acclamation. He heartily approved
the resolutions. He expressed hope
that the canvassing boards would act
fairly, and declared that if they did
not, every legal and constitutional
remedy should be exhausted to cor
rect the wrong. Gens. Ewing, Mor
gan, Ward, Warner and Wiley fol
lowed. Weloopy tho speech of God.
Ewing and a letter from Col. Lewis
D. Campbell, as the most spirited
and emphatic declarations that the
fraud contemplated must be resisted
by every available means. Both of
these gentlemen were late Repub
licans and distinguished Union offi
cers:
General Ewing spoke as follows:
Whoevor attributes the profound anxi
ety of the people of the United States to
mere party prejudices and preferences
wholly mistakes tho situation. It arises
from no fear that on the one hand Hayes,
or on tho other Tilden, may have been
fairly chosen President, On tho contrary,
nine-tenths of the American people would
rejoice to-day at the ascertained fair elec
tion of either Hayes or Tilden. Their
fears arise wholly lrom tho obvious and
pre-arranged purpose of certain wicked
leaders of the Republican party to count
Hayes in by fraud and inaugurate him,
or oontluue Grant by force. This trea
soonublo purpose is, in effect, openly
avowed by many leading papers and men
of the Administration party.
With a majority in Florida for Tilden
of over 1,000 apparent on the returns, and
in Louisiana of from 7,000 t 09,000, with no
disturbance whatever at the polls: with no
published facts of intimidation or bribery,
such as would affect the result under the
la wb and usages governing elections, these
States are claimed for Hayes by tho Ad
ministration, its press and exponents, with
absolute confidence, founded solely on the
known sooundrefism of Returning Officers,
[applause.) ,
Twenty years ago the pro-slavery lead
ers sought to intrench themselves in pow
er by fastening slavery on Kansas against
the wifi of the people these
methods of force and fraud. The Le
eompton frauds, though affecting a feeble
Territory, split the Democratic party and
Overwhelmed the administration of Buch
anan. II publio opinion revolted and over
thiew all who were responsible for petty
swindle, how will it deal with the party
responsible for this giant Lecoraptonlsm?
Applause.] It will grind it to powder.
[Applause.] W e are not authorized here
to speak tor the people of Ohio of either
party, but we are of tho people and speak
for ourselves; and speaking for myself, I
say that whatever be the duties or powers
of the Returning Hoard in Louisiana or of
the Governor of Florida, let them be dis
charged without molestation under con
trol as may be exercised by the Courts. If
the iwturuing offloers shall dare to perpe
trate a fraud upon the nation, let the
House of Representatives, through Com
missioners sent to the spot, promptly and
thoroughly expose it [applause,] so that
public opinion, which is the aggregate
judgment of intelligent and fair men, shall
understand and condemn tho vil
lainy, and then If, In the deliberate
judgment of the House, it has tho power
under the Constitution to follow the proo
edents set by the Republican party tor
twelve years past, right tho wrong by re
jecting the Electoral votes falsely or fraud
ulently returned; let it then rise to the
heightof the occasion and aet.l Applause.]
Act not in the spirit of partisan greed or
passion, but with the dignity and courage
becoming the Immediate representatives
of the people. [Applause.)
The most monstrous declaration yet
made in this crisis. 16 that which has been
attributed without oontradiotion to Gene
ral Grant, that if Hayes is given States
enough by the returning officers he shall
be inaugurated, and that a Judicious use
of the army will prevent all disputes. He
is already massing troops in Washington
to execute, 1 suspect .this oovert threat.
He seems to Intend that the aot of the Re
turning Board, however fraudulent, shall
not be baulked or brought in question by
the action of the House of Representa
tives. Let him beware. [Applause.) He
is not dealing with a subjugated Southern
State, but with the American people. [Ap
plause. “Go on, go on.” “Give it to them,
was shouted by the crowd.) No, no, gen
tlemen, I do not want to go on. X have
but one word to say, and that is, that. I
have faith enough In tho free spirit of the
people and tn the destiny of our Republic
to believe that the House of Representa
tives will never be cowed by a President
until long, long after the memory of
Grant’s civil career shall have sunk in a
kindly oblivion. [Prolonged Applause.)
The following letter was received from
Colonel L. If. Campbell:
Hamilton, Nov. 22,1876.
Hon. John O. Thompson, Cohmbus, Ohio.:
Dear Bib: Your letter received. lam
confined by a severe cold. My advice to
your meeting is: Keep cool and make
baste alowly. The gravity and pert! of
tho situation demand rather tho calm
llt'mnctM tuuld%miy uf-tataMuuii and pa
will of tho American people be de
feated through chicanery ana fraud, then
will be a fit occasion for popular indigna
tion and such an uprising of freemen us
will scatter Grant's standing army like
chaff in the whirlwind, should tie concen
trate it at Washington or elsewhere to en
force tho wrong.
Cannot some frieud or our Commander-
In-Chief be found to whisper in Ids ear
that It would redound more to his military
fame and to the repose of the whole coun
try to cloeo ills administration byeending
Ids troops to subdue Kitting bull and
avenge the butchery of tho gallant Custer
and his brave comrades, than putting
them in barracks at the Capital, with offi
cers’ qaarters at the Arlington, the Ebbitt
and other gay and festive Metropolitan
hotels f Very truly yours, Ac.
Lewis D. Campbei.t..
KOI Til CAROLINA.
The action of the Supreme Court of
South Carolina in fining and order
ing the imprisonment of tho contu
macious members of the canvassing
board, may precipitate the crisis in
that State. The Federal Judge
Bond, at Columbia, is a bitter Radi
cal partisan, and an appeal to him
muy be followed by an order for their
release which will be supported by
the militury. It would bo but little
worse than prior acts of Federal
military intervention in the domes
tic affairs of the Southern States. Ev
ery conservative and law-abiding
man will applaud the action of the
Supreme Court in maintaining its
authority, and the more heartily be
cause the Judges are all Republicans
and supporters of Hayes. Unless
law and justice are trampled down
by a military despotism, they will be
sustained.
Tennessee.— We learn from the
Nashville American that with only
Carter county to hear from, the offi
cial returns of the election in Tennes
see show that Tilden received*l32,Bo7
votes and Hayes 88,380; majority for
TildenJ 14,427. Carter easts between
1.200 and 1,300 votes, so that the total
Presidential vote In the State will
probably exceed 222,500—the heaviest
ever polled in Tennessee. Carter muy
give Hayes a majority of 300 or 500.
The suggestion is made t hat possi
bly Gov. Hayes will abruptly settle
the present political turmoil by de
claring that he is satisfled that the
people have not elected him, but Gov.
Tilden, and that he will make no con
test for an office secured by the ma
nipulation of returning boards. Wo
regret to say that this is regarded as
a bare possibility, though the taking
of this course would unquestionably
add more to the renown of Governor
Hayes than two Presidential terms.
Tho Montgomery Advertiser states
that on Friday night the caucus of
Demooratio members of the Legisla
ture of Alabama took about a dozen
ballo.tings for U. S. Senator, but
without arriving at a result, adjourn
ed until Monday afternoon. Tho two
houses will ballot for Senator on
Tuesday.

—lt is generally understood that the
friends of O. A. Bacon of Bibb, and 11. 11.
Carlton of Clark, are actively pressing
thcir.daims for the Speakership of the
House, and the probability is that there
will be a sharp contest between them.
—The jail of Early county was burnt
the’night of the 17th inst. There was
one negro prisoner in the jail, and it is
believed that ho fired it in the hope of
effecting his escape, but he perished in
in the flames, despite the efforls of the
jailor and others to rescue him.
—Perry Johnson, a negro boy of fifteen
years, was tried in Pulaski Superior
Court last week for burglary, convicted
and sentenced to the penitentiary for ten
years. He entered the residence of Mr.
John Cremer at night, and stole money
from his pocket-book.
—The Hawkinsville Dispatch reports
that on Saturday night, 17th, tho gin
house of Mr. James J. Kinchen, of Pulas
ki, was destroyed by fire. The building
contained nearly twenty bales of cotton,
which belonged to different parties.
About one-third of the cotton was saved
by pouring water upon the fire after the
roof of the house had fallen in.
— l The next meeting of the Georgia
State Grange will take place in Atlanta on
the second Monday in December.
—AVc learn from the Dispatch that the
boys of Hawkinsville tried to get up a
torch-light procession headed by a flag
with the letters “Tilden or War,” but the
men of tho town disrouraged it, and it
“wentout.”
—The Thotuasville Times reports the
passage through the city of a long line of
wagons en route tor Florida, bearing
about forty emigrants. They were prin
cipally from Miller and Early.
—One thousand good stalks of good
sugar cane will yield twenty gallons of
syrup. So says a practical Georgia far
mer.
—Two gentlemen, Williams and Odum,
have started a sheep farm iu Baker Coun
ty, Ga., with two hundred head of sheep.
—Pine specimens of black tea, grown
by Dr. 8. J. Janes, at his place five miles
firom Thomasville, Georgia, were exhibi
ted at the Thomasville fair. Good judges
say that it compares favorably with any
imported from China.
—lrwintou Southerner: From all
parts of county come orders daily for
barrels iu which to put syrup. Our mer
chants say they are satisfied that four
times as much syrup has been made this
year in Wilkinson county, as was made in
any previous year, and yet it sells for 75
ets., per gallon.
Novelties in Glass. —One of the most
beautiful novelties in glass are the bowls,
tazzas, etc., painted iu pure white glass,
white flowers, fish, fruit, etc., painted in
relief, and in natural colors upon themt
the beauty of which is cnchanced when
water is placed within. An attempt to
carry the idea out has for a long time been
tried in vain, the difficulty of fixing the
painting when complete being great; the
result was eminently satisfactory, es
pecially as shapes chosen are so elegant
and varied.
