A 4 S NO I'SCEMEST. la renewing his connection with the Commercial, as political editor, it is scarcely necessary for the undersigned to define his principles. Being now, as always heretofore, a sincere Demo crat of the States rights school, he will labor to maintain tlie integrity of the Democratic party against the open assaults of avowed enemies, and the more dangerous arts of secret enemies who profess Democracy only to get the power to seduce and betray the party for mean, selfish ends In the present position of public affairs we regard the integrity of the Democratic party as a matter of very highest importance. Never, in the history of the country, has there been a time when consequences wo moment ous hung dependent upon the triumph or defeat of that party. Do you wisli to recover the rights of the States, the equality of the States? Sustaiu the organized Democratic party. Do you wish to suppress military rule and banish federal bayonets ? Sustain the Democratic party. Would you de feat the infamous bill devised by Sum ner to insult, humiliate and degrade the Southern white people into an en forced social amalgamation with your former slaves ? Stand by the Demo cratic party. Wvuld you prevent all the horrors of a war of races which must bo precipitated upon you by the ceaseless tampering of Radical incen diaries with the negro population? Stand by the Democratic party —save it from defeat by open enemies, from betrayal and disruption by ambitious ' demagogues. There is no other party to which we can look with the least degree, of hope for our deliverance from the most galling oppression. It is too late for those who refused to rid us in organizing our streugth, to ask us to disband. Our leaders are chosen. Our battle, is set. All true men will meet the enemy under the old flag. They will deliver their fire full in the face of their enemy. The ' battle over, they will address them selves again to the task of perfecting i their organization for a renewal of their struggle for right and liberty. S. FuUCHe'. THE CAUI EKMVIEEK SF.X IT X El,. A brief article of ours, containing no personal allusion whatever, was at tacked and shamelessly, falsified ano prostituted to the vilest purposes of the demagogue, in the columns of the Cartersville Sentinel. We said the bare publication of the article thus attacked in its columns, would exhibit the fact, that we had been falsified and slandered ; and we said that the refusal to publish that r -tide was a refusal to lei the truth appear in it* columns. This refusal to do an act so obvi ously just, is now attempted to be ex cused upon the ground that our arti cle was a venomous attack upon its friefids. There is no truth in this ex cuse for refusing to publish an article vilified in its columns. Iu the face of all this, that paper has the quiet effrontery to hope that wo have “a '.large enough charity” to publish Felton’s card in our paper that it may circulate among our read ers! He pretends to think this card a complete, vindication of Felton from the palpable contradiction of himself demonstrated in the Commercial. So far from being a complete vindication —we regard it as a wriggling subter fuge. Our course is, and shall con tinue to ha controlled by truth, jus tice anda sense of duty to the country. We will uever after refusing justice to any man, approach him with whining cant about large charity. This is some of our venom. In exposing Felton’s tricks and his duplicity we wish to ha considered as addressing ourselves to tiiose only who are open to conviction by evidence, who respect and yield to truth. We do not address ourselves to the Cartels ville Sentinel. wiuuis of warning. Is the past so easily forgotten and the.days of Mead and Bullock, those synonyms for villainy ami oppression in every form in Georgia? Carpet bag rulers, negro officials, and Feder al bayonets. These will be your por tion and the piteous ruiu and humili ation they entail, fellow-citizens of Georgia, if you permit personal con siderations or prejudices to engender divisions at this juncture. Are you willing to submit to such calamities? —Macon Telegraph. i'j.l/ros niSSEGTEI). We ask ever}' lover of the good old ways of truth to read the commuui catiou of “Observer,” elsewhere in the Commercial. “Don’t prevaricate, sir!” thundered a California judge to a witness from the ipiues. “Can’t help it, judge” an swered the miner. “Ever since I got a kick from a mule, that kuocked my teeth out, I prevaricate a good deal.” The Atlanta News is trying to low er Fatty Harris in the estimation of the people of Georgia.

As will be seen by telegrams else-, j where, the Patriots have surrendered to the military authorities. There seems to be some doubt as to the | course Grant will take in the Louis iana affair. He refuses to recognize Penn, but whether he will fasten Kellogg in his satrapy by the force of bayonets is not distinctly revealed. This is a very serious complication and calls fur the exercise of inoder tion and sound discretion. We were told, yesterday, that Grant was very angry. This is do time for passion ; this is no time for its exhibi tion. In deciding to sustain Kellogg, the | President and his cabinet “do not un dertake to decide the question as to who in right and who is wrong.” Cer tainly not. Right or wrong, Kellogg |isto be sustained. The overthrow of j au usurper by revolutionary action of the people is a precedent not to be tol erated. Other States might follow the dangerous example. What tin n would be the condition of satraps ap pointed by the central sovereignty ? But what is to be thought of the pre cedent set in the intervention of the central government in the affairs of a State, and deciding-- right or wrong—to maintain au usurper in power against the will of the people by military force i Of these two precedents which shall we elect? Which is most dan gerous to the rights of the States and the librties of the people ? NO HUE TO CHANUE FBO.Vr. As we said in a former article, our battle is set. The enemy is in our front. If we were cowardly enough to desire it, we could not decline the conflict. We have no alternative hut to stand by our flag and our leader, and deliver our fire full iu the face of the foe, or inglorious fly the field, or to go over to the enemy under the treacherous lead of a deserter. Mr. Trammell, iu dispite of all the allegations made against him, entered the convention decidedly stronger than any other man. His friends were from ilia counties contiguous to his home. They may therefore he presumed to know him. Their attach ment to him may be inferred, not only from their selection of him as their chosen candidate, hut from the firm ness with which they adhered to him in the Convention. Is it probable that those friends would be williug to see him withdrawn, to silence the c amour of a treacherous and deceit ful dnoigauizer, who has been for months devising and arranging the plan of liia apostacy, who prejudged aud insulted the Convention and all its friends before it assembled ? No! Those friends have beeu iu s ted through their chosen candidate. They are told now by this pretended reformer, the immaculate Felton, that he would have yielded the field to any other but the candidate presented by them ! But they have put in nomi nation a man so obnoxious to his pure heart that he must oppose him and rebuke him, and all the wire-pulling rascals who put him in nomination ! True, this honest reformer took pains to go to a promiuent friend of Trammell only a very few days before his nomination, and assure him that ho was no more opposed to Trammell than to any other man. In fact, he KNEW hi u and liked him VERY MUCH. But as soon as he was nominated, he was the only man of such vile charac ter that he must oppose him for con science sake ! Is it to he supposed that any man’s friends would to see him dropped at the dictation o such a transparent hypocrite? No those friends, and thousands who have witnessed the shameful tricks, the de ceitful double dealing aud wriggling shifts of Felton, would scorn to yield a hair at the instance of the lowest trickster that has ever yet figured in the politics of this District. If, at any time, it might have been advisable for Col. Trammell to throw up the nomination with a view to pro moting the harmony of the Democrat ic party, all must see that it is now too late. Besides, all must see that no reliance can be placed upon Fel ton’s declarations. They are constra dietary and ever varying. He is con stantly rnakiDg new and extraordinary discoveries, which change his declara tions, his opinions and his purposes. Such a step would be hailed by Feitou aud his followers as a confes sion of weakness, a weakness that does not exist to anything like the ex tent that they pretend. Let us all, then, as true Democrats, address our selves resolutely to the work set before us. We can win the battle. We have cheering and reliable news from points where the greatest defection is said to exist. Our friends in every other District in t.Jse State are united, harmonious and active. Here, only, has the Democratic’party found a dis organizer t> disrupt the party and coalesce with Radicals for its de feat. Come what may, the disorgan izes will come to grief. The Atlanta News has been calling Fatty Harris pet names. Harris is pouting about it and wants the News to pay him ten thousand dollars to pacify him. How particular these fellows are getting, to be sure, and what a value they place upon them selves. If Abrams should pay him the tea thousand, would that make him any the less a thief ? We put this LOXHKTRCrr AND jil Ft.LOGO. “Is there no chosen curse, some secret thttnder hidden in the stores of Heaven, To smite the wretch who owes his greatness to bis country’s ruin f" After 1876 every voter in Missouri must be able to read and write. In Florida, the same law takes effect af ter 1880. THE WAY’ TO GET UP A "PEOPLES CANDIDATE”—SPONTANEOUS SUG GESTION. We have it upon good authority that A. I. Leet, President of a con vention of Grangers held here at Rome in April 1874, said that Felton would be a candidate for Congress this fall. That if the Grangers could get him nominated he would run as the nomi nee of a Convention. If not that he would be suggested from various points of the District and run as aD independent, a peoples’ candidate. Felton was Vice President of this Con vention. Arrangements were thus early begun, unknown to the people, to provide them a candidate. At the proper time his name was to be sprung upon the country by sponta neous suggestion and he was to come forth as the peoples’ candidate—the enemy of conventions —of wire-pull ing, of rings : a reformer to wipe out the corruptions of the times, and pu rify the politics of the country !! Long live humbug!! WILL TIIE GRANGERS ALLOW THEMSELVES USED Ml DISRUPT THE DEMOCRATIC' PARTY? The evidence that Felton has at tempted to seduce the Grange organi zation into politics, and draw them to his support is conclusive. This is his fault not that of the Grangers. That he should have attempted this, con trary to what he knew to be an avow ed principle of that organization, ought to forfeit him, not only their support, but their confidence and res pect as a true and faithful Granger. There i9 a double treachery in thi\ He would betray the principles of the Grangers, that he may use them to betray the Democratic party. We know that he got no encouragement in his effort to secure Grange support here. What his success may have beeu elsewhere we do not know. He may have succeeded in seducing some unsuspecting members of the order to support him iu his treacherous attack upon the integrity of the Democratic party. If so the sooner they abandon a leader faithless alike to the Gran gers and the Democratic party the better for them, for the order and for I he party. Nothing could be more ruin ous to the success of the Orange move, men! than to allow itself to be used as an instrument for the disruption of the only party in the country in harmony with its leading principled, and upon which all good men rely for the res toration of peace prosperity and good government. THE I I.TI.VIATE RdlHl OF REV OI.VTIOV In all ages of the world, tyrants have stood iu awe of the dagger. Where they have shaken off all regard to moral restraints, all respect for laws, human and divine, they are yet held in check by the dread of the aveng ing dagger in the hands of outraged humanity. Suppose a case where the law itself is but oue of the instrumentalities of tyrauts. They make the law, they administer it, and perpetuate robberies and murders by laws of their own eu actmeut, administered by themselves or their missions; what resource is left to suffering humanity iu such a state? Shall tyrants thus entrenched and hedged around by laws intended for their own purposes, not for the protec tion of human rights, he still further secured by that mawkish and stupid sentimentality which would reject the last and only remaining resource of the people— the right of revolution— the appeal to the sword ? The dread of the sword and the dagger are now the main restraints upon the advance of despotism iu this country. The Constitution is dead. Liberty is dying. Let those who have destioyed the one and ara strangling the other, remember that the sword of revolution remaius in the hands of people. THE RENEGADE. A special telegram to the Courier- Journal says: Iu the charge made upon the metropolitans under Long street yesterday, many of the old Vir ginia veterans were there. He heard that yell of victory that had once fill ed his heart with pride, aud he inglo riously fled the field. The crack shot of the city drew a bead on him a mo ment before the first fire, hut a citizen begged him not to fire. That man has not missed his mark for teu years. Thus Longstreet was saved. We rather doubt the statement that Longstreet “ingloriousiy fled the field.” He is a brave man aud no doubt re tired in good order, under the circum stances. — Angusta Comtitutionalist. He may have shown himself a brave man at one time. Then he was engaged iu defending the rights of an oppressed people, aud with a serene consciousness of the justice of his cause he performed his duty well. Conscience makes a coward of him note, qud we have no doubt the ac count is corect and that he inglorious ly fled the field. “Ay, I was a gentleman,” said Mel notte “before I turned conspirator.” By the way we wonder ifour cotem porary’s own conscience does not give an occasional alight twinge, as he em ploys his pen iu writing apologies for the tyrant at Washington aod the traitor at New Orleans. “Better the lire upon thee roll, Better the shot, the blade, the bowl, Than crucifixion of'thc soul , Maryland ! my Maryland !"

The leaders ot the mob are endeavoring to repress violence, fearing the tff-ct North. Several*parish governments have been overthrown by the leagues. S. B. Packard, United States Marshal. The Attorney General has received numerous requests from United States Marshals aud others in the States of Alabama, Tennessee, Mississippi, Ar kansas, South Carolina, praying for United States troops to protect both colored aud white Republicans. No such request has beeu received from North Carolina, Virginia or tieor <i“, volunteers offering. Oilers were received yesterday and last night of over twenty-five thousand volunteersjfrom different sections of the North and West, with the assurance that ten times that number could be raised if their services were required. Official dispatches from New Or leans report the situation unchanged, but say that it is believed there that Governor McEnery is using his influ. ence in behalf of peace, aud that through his influence the Peun party will decide to SURRENDER TO GEN.

A member of the Cabinet said last night if Kellogg had defended his position it would have been better, aud if he had been killed in so doing, still better. If the insurgents under any pretence quarrel with United States foices af ter live days, the President will con strue it as open rebellion, aud after notifying the inhabitants, will order the naval forces to take charge of the levee, and the city will either be in undated or shelled.

The gen tlemen, iu reply, said they would sub mit to any such demand from the Fed eral Government, impressing it upon the General that no show of force was necessary. They insisted that neither Kellogg nor his government could hold one inch of Louisiana territory one instant, but acknowledged not only their utter inability but total lack of desire to resist the mandate of the national executive. On leaving, the committee stated that hereafter they would regard this as the Pro vince of Louisiana. GOV. .PENN SURRENDERS THE STATE’S PROPERTY AND DISBANDS HIB FORCES.

Washington, September 17 —A spe cial meeting of the cabinet was belli here this morning and after a consultation the following telegram to General Emory was sent by the President, through Adju tant General Townsend : War Department, j Adjutant General’s Office. Washington, Sept. 18, 1874. ) General W. H Emory, New Orleans, La: The state government existing at the time of the beginning of the present in surrectionaty movement must be recog nized as the lawful state government un til some other government can be legally supplied Upon the surrender of the in surgents, you will inform Gov. Kellogg of the fact, and give him theneccessary sup port to re-establish the authority of the state government. If at the end of the five days given in the proclamation of the 15th inst., there still exists armed resistance to the author ity of the State, you will summon a sur render if not quietly submitted to, it must be enforced at all hazards, this being an insurrection against the state government of Louisiana, to aid in the suppression of which the United States government has been called upon in the forms required by the constitutional laws of congress there under. It is not the province of the Uni ted Slates authorities to make terms with parties engaged in such insurrec tion. E. D. Townsend, Adjutant General. General Emory has appointed Col. Booke military governor of the city until the State and city governments can be recognized. The people don’t object to this, bat fear lest the President will re place Kelloirg. Wealthy, reliable citizens say if he is reqlaced nothing cart save him FROM ASSASbINATION. He won't resign, arid it will be a good thing for all parties if the President puts the State under military government. FEELING OF GREAT RELIEF. New Orleans, Sept. 16. —After an of ficial settlement of the troubles yesterday, there was a feeling of great relief. Many of Mr. McEuery‘s followers predict that General Emory’s orders signifies the in auguration of martial law. A consultation was held in the after noon at the Custom House between lead ing Republicans and Democrats. A pro gramme, was agreed to looking to a peace ful settlement of the troubles requiring the resignation of ail the claimants to the governorship, and leaving it to the State to select the Governor and Lieutenant Governor. The War Department sent a telegram to Gen. Emory, at New Orleans, instruct ing him to recognize and support the Kellogg government. KELLOGG CONGRATULATED. New Orleans, September 18.—The in surgent army has disbanded, but their diplomasts are negotiating on various terms of compromise by which they may get some recognition to the general recon struction, as well as amnesty for their recent operations. Most of the proposi tions Kellogg accepts. There are rumors of a negro uprising in the West Feliciana parish, and some excitement prevails. This is a strong Re publican parish where the Republican officials were deposed by the White League on Tuesday. Not much credit is says the negroes have been repulsed with no.white men J wounded. Gentlemen itt prominent legal positions say the surrender of the insurgents do s not prevent their prosecution tor treason against Louisiana by the authorities of that State. Washington, September 18.—The fol lowing telegram was receyed to-night from General Emory to Adjutant General Townsend, dated New Orleans,' Septem ber 18th : l have placed Col.
