Yes, it is a great party! equal rights to the American citizens! a deep and feeling interest in the laborers, a fiee Mid saerc.l ballot! a universal national snffrage! but what an agonizing howl it sends up when Ex-Confederate sol diet is apjiointed to a Federal office! We know it hurts, and tries their pa triotic feelings for the safty of the country; and Southern Democracy ought to pass a resolution tendering them their sympathy in so gieat a di s tress to them.

What a world of meaning there is in this Hub word. It is tho very life of our exist nice, th? light which guides and cheers us on our weary march, through the rugged path of life It is worse than folly fol- us to fold oUr linudfl and sit down in dispair, mourn ing over wasted opportunities and re flecting on what might have been; better !>o looking out for a bright to morrow. What would life be with out I lope? and that the pleasures ill the fnfnre for us are greater than those of the past. It is Hope that causes us to cling to life with sncli tenacity; that enables us to persevere itl any great undertaking, and cheers us in all our hitter disappointments. How cheering is the faintest ray of Hope, to tlie lonely sailor far out upon the stormy sea. Ho can realize with the poet ns he sings; ‘'Star of Hope, gleams on the billow; Bless the soul that sighs for thee; Cheer tho sailors’ lonely pillow, Par, far at sea.” To an invalid who lias been on a bed of suffering for Weeks and months, how cheering is the knowledge, that tho day is past and hope of recovey is entertained. To the man or woman in middlo life who spent their youth ful days in hopes and plaits for tho f t tnre —blight hopes, which few—ah very few, ever realise, how sad is the awakening, to find their hopes blasted, plans laid waste, their whole lives a living lie, and the words: “It might havo been,” ring mournfnl in their ears. 'Tie then, Hope, life’s bright morning star remains to cheer, when all others havo disappeared. M. A, llovey. Lower Salem, Ohio, June 13th I’Bs PREFEpRED CREDITORS (Cartcrsvillo Cocraxt] What do we mean by the word creditor? A creditor is one who lends money or articles of value to another, and the party receiving these tliiugs bccotnos the debtor. The party who lends money, or goods, or labor, or lands, or furniture, or food, or raiment, or any other article of value to be paid for at some fntuie time, is said to give crtfcmr, whicji credit is smnetin.es de fined to be t ic acquisit on >f oi e party of the wealth of another in loan. Nt-w in the nan cof justice, honesty and common sense, what light has a debt or to discriminate between partieswho have loan d him their wealth? By a promise to pay ho has simply trans ferred tl.e wealth of his creditors to his own pocket. Why should he have the privilege to return the wealth that one Ijas loaned him in preference to the wealth loaned him by another? Why discriminate between men who have enriched thodebtoi tothcamount of valuables loaned him? The truth is that this whole system and practice of preferential assignments bv which the claim of one creditor may be pre ferred to that of another is unjust, and alas! too often fraudulent. Are the debts all honest and just? Then let each stand before the law upon an equality with all others. Justice and honesty demand that the corporation, whatever its character, and the indi vidual, whatever his vocation, twhen they suspend payment, or become ci' l solvent, or when they make an asign ment, be deprived of the legal right and privi’ego of naming certain parties as profened creditors, while others equally deserving, and perhaps more needy, must take their chances in the general scramble A law which encour ages such wrong and opens the door for such frauds as are usually perpe trated under its provisions should nol he found among the statutes of (Geor gia. W. 11. F. The Bullock Bonds • For a couple ol week past there has been a lively discussion in the Atlanta ('oiiMittiliou oil this subject, in which ex-Governor Bullock has taken a prominent pmt. That this move ment is ihe begining of a gigantii effort to force the people of Georgia t< p«\ up these tiHinlnfent obligation' incurred "bile ox Governor l’nl'rc was in i thee, we do not doubt, and i7)j! a tf’in te‘•o , v? on the part of the people to stand by their rights as tax payers, and to prevent any further swindling to tlieir finan cial injury, this movement will amount to a good deal more than ap* peais now on the surface. [For the want of space, and considering its length, we hero omit “the report of the bond crmniittfee, which report, and the Icarfnl exposures contained therein, 'induced the people of Georgia to re pudiate a considerable amount of these so-called obligations”. | Now, the Covrant asks the free citizens of this county, are yon going to allow this gang of bandits(the same old batid)to organize to fleece yon again? Arc you going to let Lochranc, as attorney, and Bullock and Clews as stock broken*, and 11. I. Kimball as general wire puller, to tyrannize you again? Shall the “infernal foicc of gold” fasten tho chains anew on your limbs? ltise up and protect yourself, and when Kimball, Bullock Al Company prepare another Commercial Conven tion in Atlanta, to oiganizo ami tyr anize Over yotir property, send for Henry Clews and let tho whole crowd be photograhed as they stand-—some l thing like the picture gallcties that adorn the police headquarters in New York City, Bullock's gang, irrospect* ive of party, nfe now giving opinions that this matter should go to the courts, Wheti there is force enough applied to overcome the will of people and corrupt a legislature, so as to allow the courts ail opportunity to revoke this righteous decision, then the people should lay aside all reserve, indict the men who are striving to do now What they failed to do fourteen ago, and it necessary start the crowd to Canada, in the track of all specula tors who manipulate other people's money, and there will be no difficulty in their finding the way to that spot, as some have already been forced to flee from Georgia in times past. THE ROTHSCHILD6i The grunt banking house of Rothschild or iginated in Frankfort, Germany, about 150 years ago. Tho founder of the house dealt ill Old clothes, and had for a sign .board a red sheild, which in Gorman is koth sflilt). The son of this old clothes dealer continued the same business, became a pawn broker and loaned money. He eucreedod go well that ho died in 1818 leaving a fortune of $5,000,000. He bound his five sons by a selomn oath to follow the business togethor, holding the prop orty in partnership and extendind their op erations so that ull the world should know tne firm of Rothschild. The sons were true their oath. They occupied tho great financial centers of thb world and worked for tho com mon interest, Nathan in London prospered wonderfully. He witnessed the battle of Wa terloo, and by extraordinary efforts reached London in advance of tho official couriers, f/o reported a great viotory for Napoleon, and stocks went down to almost nothing. Ho refused t« buy but had scores of agents pur chasing. Tho next day Wellington’s mess enger arrived The truth was known and stocks went up. ay this singlo lio the great house of Rothschild made $5,000,000, After that the firm rolled in wealth. It made its power felt in tho palace of evory ruler in Eu rope, in tho far East and in this western world at the firesido of the Now England farmer, and in the log cabin of the pionocr. Tho Rothschilds of to-day have the spirit of their ancestor. Thcs*rijoild a dangerrus power They set their combinatioas to work to effect the price of the daily bread if overy laborer in the civilised world. With their encouragement kings '.and ompoyrs stand ready to rush into bloody wars. I is in their power to givo us flush timos or bring on a g, n ral panic.

June 12-News hat been received hero of the bloody riot, which occured on Sunday at n negor camp meeting at Mount Zion church, about nine miles from Yorkvillo. The c inntry darkies had promulgated the idea that they did not desire rlie pres ence of town negroes at their mettiug “putten’ ofi airs’-’ and in turn the town negroes had bos tod that they would go down to see the "coons” and teach the rural darkies a lesson in ctiquaete Be sides the knives and rezors and cheap pistols, which go to make up the ne groes’ defensive, outfit each party was well supplied with whisky. Scarcely had tlie first town continent arrived when hostilities began. The conflict was desperate and ’’bloody, and raged fo.t ovet an hour at the end of r which time the country “coons” were in pos session of the field, and the town dar kies in full retreat. The casulties, as near as ca.i be learnsd were that one negro was killed, two fatally wounded and at least twenty were more or less seriously injured. A general stainnede followed the first clash.
