Mr. Gharle* H. Markham if* the agent
for the Ekquirkr-Suh for Musoogee and
Uufiiiell counties. Ho m authorized to
aolioit advertising and aubsoriptionn, and
to receipt for the same. We oouimond
him as a gentleman in every way worthy
of confidence.
Too Hack for Be.
Our columns are burdenod with com
munications presenting the claims of can
didates for office. We shall charge regu
lar advertising rates for suoh communica
tions, showing preference and allowing
esemption to none. They are written and
published in the interest of individuals,
and though they may be of aotue general
intergst, their number and bulk are too
great to impose on a newspaper publisher
(who has to pay his printers for every line
of them) without compensation for bis
spaoe and expense.
J. H. Slosh, the Congressman who
killed a young man in Tuscuoibis, Ala.,
a short time since, is an independent tan
didate for Congress, and it is said that he
counts on Kadioal support.
Thk threatened negro disturbance in
Clarke county, Ala., to which we alluded
the other day, w s quelled on Friday, by
the arrest of the ringleaders, and the
whites, who bad mustered to the number
of about two hundred, then disbanded.
Thb Altanta Board of Trade have under
consideration resolutions requiring that
the names of country merchants, who buy
stocks of goods on credit, and then take
the benefit of the Bankrupt or Homestead
act, or make sham sales, shall be publish
ed In the papers.
Thk New Orleans HuUetin of Bunday
reports anothor uprising of the people
against unbearable Kadioal usurpation,
corruption and misrule. It says that last
week two hundrod arinnd citizens of Web
alar parish, La., took possession of all tha
parish offices, without jany'bloodshed or vio*
lenco, ousting the fuithless occupants.
Tub New Orleans Times says of Sypber,
* one of the so-called Congressmen from
Louisiana, that he has served three terms
as a Itepresentative from that State, and
waa never eleoted for either term. Why
should it bo required that Sypher should
be electod, any moro than Smith or Kel
logg ? We can’t see that his name could
oreate any right of exemption in his case.
The editor of the Eufaula limes thinks
that he is entitled to our gratitudo, be
cause ho refrained from purchasing the
drovo of fine beeves that arrived in our
city from Florida, via Eufaula, last week.
Now, Hhrop, .wo ascertained from the
owtier of the drove that those beeves
were not for sale on credit, and the know
lodge of that fuot repressed any feeling
of gratitudo to you for your forbcarauce
N. B.—We have not had a slico from ono
of those beevos yet; the purchasers here
are not selling on a credit oithor.
Dm. A. T. W. Lyttlb (who has asaur
anoes from Washington that the people
of the Ninth District will be exempted
from the tax on liquor if theyaleota Bad
ioalto Congress) advertises himself as
"the Humoral Pathologist who cures all
diaeascs." He only wauts to aee a drop
of a patient's blood, and then he kuows
exactly what ails him all over. He has
examined a drop (only one drop) of the
whiskey distilled in the Ninth Guugraa*
aional District, and ascertained that the
only political right which the people ot
the District want la free distilleries ; and
that is the remedy which he prescribes.
We have made some extracts from the
Radical paper in North Georgia, to bIiow
how bitterly the Kadiouls oppose the
Civil Rights bill iu localities in wliioh
there are but few negro voters. They
play the game Just as low down in the
counties of North Alabama where negroes
are aoaroe and white Radioala more abun
dant. One Beoj. Avery, a Uadtoul candi
date for the Legislature iu Marion
county, Ala., is reported as saying a few
days since, iu a speech to the white Re
publican of that county, that "he won in
favor of colonizing the negro and getting
him from srnoug us, aud if that could
not be done, ho was in favor of driving
him from the oountry, as the Red man
waa, at tho point of tbe bayonet.'’
Besefletary Seliolareblpa
We are iuformed by T. J. Watt, Esq ,
that he has given tho free scholarship
in tbe Agricultural College of Georgia,
controlled by him, to James Bliippey.
We also learn that tho Trustees of tbe
Louisville (Ky.) Medical College have
conferred on tho Representatives of Mus
cogee county power to select a beneficiary
atndeut in that institute. They will ro*
commend some worthy young man who
m»y apply.
Tb Arable-rigging.
The Radical Convention of Dallas
eonnty, Alabama—a county that has some
7,t*00 negro voters to 2,000 whites—passed
a resolution in favor of the Civil Rights
bill, and nominated for Congress Jerry
Haralson, a strong negro supportor of
that bill, but at the same time eleoted
delegates to the State Convention in favor
of ignoring the Civil Rights question
there! The design is apparent, and in
deed it has long boon anticipated. It la
to run on the Civil Rights Usue in the
strong negro counties, but to hold out to
lbs white Radicals of North Alabama the
deceptive assuranee that the party does
not insist on the Civil Rights bill. But it
can't win. This Radical Convention in
Dallas oounty is described aa the most
turbulent, disorderly and disgraceful con
Editor Enquirer.Sun : Having onoe
been an occasional contributor to the
sheets you now so ably edit, I have con
cluded to write you a short communica
tion relative to crops and politics ; know
ing that newspaper men are never averse
to these things, as they are closely allied,
one with the other, in sustaining the pros
perity and happiness of onr country. As
to the crops, I oan report corn, potatoes,
and other minor crops as good. Cotton
is small and baokward, owing to the very
unfavorable weather for this plant during
the months of May, June, and a part of
July. However, with propitious seasons
for the next four or five weeks; together
with exemption from tho caterpillar, I
prediot for this auction of eoontry nearly
an average crop for area planted, which
is considerably lesa than any previous
year. Coro is especially good, better than
for many years past. The area planted is,
also, folly one-third over that of 1878
Borne will make a sufficiency to
last them eighteen months. Few, if
any, will have to buy ; and those who
do, can purchase from their neighbors.
Ho you see, Mr. Editor, that tbe agricul
turists, as a olsas, are awakening from
their lethargic sleep—a sleep that has made
them dead to their beat interests—and
slowly, but peroeptibly, working from
under the sovereignty of that tyrannical
king, Cotton, and are endeavoring to
make th-.ir granaries and meat-houses (aa
iu tbe good old aute-bellum days)on their
farms. Farmers are more deter
mined than ever to plant less oottou and
more largely of the cereals. The all-
oottou and no-corn policy that we have so
long practiced, has proven a suicidal
oue—a polioy that time aud experience
have divested of its imaginary charms,
aud whioh will do more, like a beautiful
ayren, beckon on but to destroy. I need
not depict our position aa it might now
have been in tbe financial world had we,
ns farmers, pursued the proper course
siuce tbe war; for such a picture, por
trayed in its true colors and compared
with tbe roal one, could but inspire every
intelligent man with feelings of loathing
and contempt for a system of planting
that has in a few years impoverished our
once productive lands and beggared their
ownors.
Permit me here to say a word in re
gard to the young men of the South—
those who think they are too nioe to work
too proud to handle the hoe or drive
the plow. Thousands throughout the
South, who wore raised in opulenoe and
luxury, found themselves at the dose of
the war deprived at one fell stroke of all
the wealth their fathers had been a life
time in accumulating. Realizing their
situation, and being too proud to beg,
too honest to steal and too lazy to work,
they flocked to oitiea and towns; forti
fied themsolves behind counters, to sell
molasses and rat-traps—measure ribbous
and dust shelves, while others sought
petty agoucies upon salaries scarcely
worthy of tbe name. They left the farms
of their fathers iu the hands of lazy, ig-
uorant uegroos, to grow up a tangled,
matted wild wood, or what is worse, to be
half cultivated. They left tho homes of
their childhood with all their happy associ
ations, to become the den of reptiles
and tbe abode of bats, all because the
son shines in the Booth and they wanted
respectable positions—so called; positions
in which they could cultivate the graces
of sn empty pocket, white hands, and the
acquaiutauoe of the kid glove gentry.
What if they had remained on the farm—
gone to the fields and shown the negro
that labor was profitable as well as honor
able ? Would they not have contributed
largely iu building up our waste places,
and making our own Bunuy South teem
with peace and plenty ?
Feinting is both a soienoe aa well aa a
trade. It is a auieuee inasmuch an every*
ihiug produced on the farm comes into
beiog, grows aud matures aocording to
scientific principles. It is a trade as its
successful operation requires the hand of
experience. It is something more than a
soieuco or a trade—it is both. Henoe an
agricultural edueatiou is more than a ool-
legiato one; more than oan be learned
from books, labratories, lectures, aud
study. Though one is thoroughly famil
iar with theHo, he is not an educated
fai'uier. He may bo a theoretical farmer,
but the practice will be lacking. Though
he inay have learned the uae of the dif
ferent tools aud all tbe handiwork prac
ticed in. ugrioulture, yet be is not a prac
tical farmer. But if he has not the
acieuce of his profession, he will not be
au educated farmer. The truly educated
farmer is tbe one who oombiues an ednoa-
ted head with a practical hand. Both are
equally eHseutial to sacoess. The very
reasou so mauy young men shun the pro
fession of farmiug is the very reasou they
should select it; for they have the edu
cated head aud would soon have the prac
ticed hand ; aud by the combination they
would soou make our most successful
farmers, thoreby aiding in raising agri
culture to that high standard she moat ul
timately attain.
As I have digressed to Buch au exteot
I ahull have but little to say in regard to
politics; for I, myself, am no politician.
The subject is red-hot and promises to be
no cooler. There are many candidates in
tbe field—to many as makes it dange•
to feel safe. Much interest is manifested,
more by the whites, but leas by the blaoks,
than has been evinced since the latter be
came voters. Many whites, who have
heretofore taken no interest in political
issues, are uo longer passive, but are ac-
tivo and busy. If the Alabamians would
release themselves from their burdensome
taxes and maladministration, let them but
do their doty and the weights which they
have so long borne would be thrown off,
and they would become onoe more a pros
perous aud happy people. W. M. B.

In this (Fourth) District, Marion oonn-
ty on Sattrday elected delegatee In favor
of the nomination of Colonel Mark
Blandford for Congress. We are informed
that Hon. B. B. Hinton declined to run.
The delegates appointed are Wm. B. Butt,
E. N. Bull, B. B. ninton, J. F. Roshin
and Brooks Story. Coweta county, on Satur
day, selected delegates to the Congres
sional Convention without instructions,
and it is reported that Carroll oounty haa
dono the same.
The counties of the Seventh District
appear to be divided as follows : For
Trammell—Gordon, Whitfield, Catoosa,
Murray, and Dade in part. For Waddell—
Polk, Cobb and Haralson, and Dade in
part. Print op—Floyd. Young—Paulding.
Dabney—Walker. Bartow, Cherokee and
Catoosa are > et to hear from. It would
appear that neither candidate oan obtain
a majority on the first balloting.
It is thought that Colonel A. T. McIn
tyre is the most prominent candidate for
the nomination by the Democrats of tbe
Second District, against Whitely.
Colonel. Phil Cook appears to have the
lead in tha Third Diatriot, though very
few counties have yet appointed dele
gates.
M ef t. J.
Editors Enquirer-Sun ; I see in your
Sunday's edition a suggestion from a cor
respondent that yonr present Representa
tives should be returned. This gives an
opportunity of answering the question
often asked aa to whether I was a candi
date for reaomination. To this my reply
is, no. To the further question as to
whether I would serve or accept if the
nomination was given me, my answer is,
that if tbe people, with my record before
them, should without solicitation endorse
me, then my sense of obligation would
forbid a declination. But I ask nothing,
nor would I receive, knowingly, any gift
of the people simply upon the score of
personal preference or availability. I
think the day has ootne when the people
should take higher ground and put forth
their best men—men capable and firm—
who will vote for the right because it is
right, and vice versa. Neither do I be
lieve that religious opinions, or avocation,
should be the governing principle ; but
with your best men, without any claims
or demands upon the people, they will
rally to their support, and presenting an
unbrokon front, will bury forever beyond
tbe hope of resurrection the hydra head
of Radicalism in all its shapes.

Ul. A. M. Mobley for CfagreH, *a4
Wm. I. Hudson for lists Ron-
Hamilton, August 7, 1874.
Editor Enquirer-Sun /—Thinking that
you would allow a short communication
from Harris oounty, I have conoluded to
tell you something of onr political meet
ing held in this place on the 4th inat. We
have never had, in my recollaotion, a
larger and more enthusiastic meeting of
the people. With such a determination
to win as was manifested on that dsy, and
with anoh men as Harris county will put
forward, there can ba no such thing ss
fail.
How oan Hudson be defeated for State
Senator? He has been endorsed by his
oounty, and to defeat him, we think one
of the impossibilities.
And Col. James M. Mobley,though un
avoidably absent from the county on
tbe day before mentioned, and we know
it to have been unexpected and unsought
by him, has received the unanimous
endorsement of the county for Con
gress. While Col. Mobley will not urge
his claims, and while this demonstration
by his eonnty was noexpeoted and un
sought, we believe that he would accept
the nomination, and we know that a bet
ter selection could not be made.
Col. Mobley has all the qualifications to
make us an able, honest and efficient rep
resentative. We feel, knowing him as
we do, that he oould not be defeated if
nominated; and to have such men in
Congress would be an honor to the Dis
trict that aends them, and to the State.
Would that our State and United .States
Legislatures could be composed of suoh
men; then we would feel safe, and know
that this Government would oocupy a
position that it has never before at
tained.
The meeting adopted the old plan of
nominating candidates for the Legiala-
tore, that is by selecting three delegates
from each militia District to assemble in
Convention at Hamilton on the first
Tuesday in September. Julus.
In obedience to the instruction of the
Democratic Convention of last Saturday,
I do hereby call upon the Democrats of Muscogee
to HMfeoible in Convention at the Court Uuuse of
cogee, at 12 M., ON SATURDAY, TI1R 1JTH
of this month, to nominate four delegates for the
Congressional Convention, hereafter to he held,
nominating a candidate for this District, and
also to name candidates for the Legislature
present Muscogee county.

gentleman whose name is above requires
it. He haa not fonght for newspaper
fame, and »*noh is not his nature. A writer
signing himself "Former Times" says, in
an article published Sunday morning, that
this community is a unit for Harris. We
teiUsee next Saturday. I have uothiog
to say against Col. Harris. I don't know
him, bat he bears a good name. But I do
know Judge Pou, and aay that he has been
weighed in the balances and found not
wanting. He made one of the moat able,
practical and useful members of the Leg
islature tho oounty has ever had. As
Judge of the County Court he has dis
played unusual fitness stability. Ho is
as incorruptible aa anj48*nrjj,at lives,
aud as able as any man of his age in the

inee, and Judge Poo is the man.

llBlraanalltd Delegatee.
Editor Enquirer-Sun :—Hon. M. H. |
Blandford aud Hou. M. J. Crawford hava
both very properly declined to allow their
names need as candidates for Congress in
this Diatriot in a "scramble" for the offloe.
Thin suggests a polioy whioh we decid
edly favor, viz: That our Convention, in
selecting delegates on nezt Saturday, send
no man to the Gongreas.onal Convention
of this Diatriot who is committed to any
man iu advance of tbe meeting of that
body. The delegates going free and un
trammelled can aot for the best interests
of the party on the oocaaion, and select
the ablest and moat available man, irre
spective of "instructions” or peraoual pre
ferences to represent the interests of the
whole District, and Democratic priuciplea.
We oppose "instructed" delegates, be
cause wo have seen tho bad effects of this
in the past. Our ablest and beat men,
uuoommitted and free, should be selected
aa delegates to the Convention, and we
should know them as suoh before appoint
ment.
If, however, we mutt have a “scramble"
on next Saturday for delegates favoring a
particular individual, we, with many other
friends, have our personal choice, and
shall nominate delegates who will support
Hod. James M. Russell for the position of
Editor Enquirer-Sun:—l notice
your issue of Sunday lost tho card of
Thomas W. Grimes, Eaq., announcing
himself a candidate for the Legislature,
subject to the Nominating Convention of
next Saturday.
I moat aay I like this frank and manly
avowal of his desire to have the office.
Men do not go to the Legislature simply
from a sense of duty. They go because
it is an honorable position and they are
pleased to fill it.
I am opposed to onr enacting a farce
on next Saturday and foroing the office on
any man or men.
In the dark days that followed immedi
ately after our late revolution, when the old
men, mindful of former prosperous times,
were in dispair and thought that all was
lest, the "Young Men’s Democratic Club"
was organized, and under its auspices the
old spirit was gradually aroused, until
finally the State of Georgia waa wrested
from her despoilers.
But there had to be a beginning to the
struggle, and leaders were hard to find.
Instead of a nomination then, there was
no one who would be nominated, and u
committee was appointed to find some
one who would oouaent to bear the stand
ard of Musoogee in the then approaching
election.
Thomas W. Grimes and Thomas J. Watt
took up our standard, then trailing in the
dust, and bore it aloft in a gallant strug
gle, and were eleoted, but were counted
out by "sharp and quiok Hurlbut."
The party came out of this struggle
thoroughly organized, and tho only reward
Mr. Grimes has ever received for this ser
vice in a time of great need, was the deg
radation of being dragged from home to
prison by the Federal authorities, on a
charge of which he was innocent, and
whioh was evidently made to intimidate
him.
You who attend elections under the
present regime, know who does the work
that insures success, and will agree with
me, that it is done principally by tho
young men.
The men who voted before the war
oannot stand the sight at the polls much
longer than tha time requisite to deposit
their ballot, and leave disgusted. And
well they may ba. Butatillit is necessary to
be done, and it is done principally by the
men who have had few of the honors that
result from this labor.
Now, young men of the Democratic
Club and fellow-oitizens, let ns do an act
of simple justice—let us give Thomas W.
Grimes one plaoe on our ticket.
He has the ability to serve the county
well, and he has had experience in the
Legislature, from whioh he was ejected
by Bullock. *
