Tlu* Folor Llim in Politic*.
Professor Langston, an alite colored
man, iu a recent speech in Ohio,
urges the colored people everywhere
to adhere to the Republican party.
So far as Ohio is concerned wo have
no fault to Hud with his advice, for
the Republican party there iu the
present, campaign stands upon hon
est principles and opposes a very
dangerous ns well ns dishonest finan
cial policy, which deserves the help
of all good men to defeat it. Rut Mr.
Langston’s advice is general; it will
bo quoted everywhere in tlie South
ern State's, and it will help Hi perpet
uate there evils which the wisest and
best white men are trying to cure,
| and of which It Is unite clear that Mr.
I Langston lias no knowledge or oon
i ception. Ho has evidently no person
j ill knowledge of the cotton States,
where tlie negro vote is the most
I powerful. If he had lie would be fur
from giving sucli advice as wo find in
his speech; for he is, no doubt, an
earnest friend of his race, and an
honest citizen, desirous of good gov
ernment. Tlie colored people iu the
cotton States are, for tlie most part,
lamentably ignorant, which is not
their fault; they are easily misled by
hail men, who either cajole and Hat
ter them or impose upon them. Po
litical demagoguery of the lowest
kind has, probably, never gone furth
er anywhere than among the negroes
iu those States. The attachment of
tlie negroes to the Republican party-,
which is natural and very strong, is
made use of by designing whites for
the basest purposes and in the most
audacious and shameless way. To
“mass tho negro vote” is, unfortu
nately, not difficult; and in many
States and in hundreds of counties it.
is so massed by men who use tho pre
dominance it gives them to rob tho
community. It, is notorious that it a
white man will only call himself a
Republican and stoop low enough he
can easily control tlie colored vote,
no mater how bad his character, what
his political antecedents, or how
wicked his purposes. It is no uncom
mon occurrence to see a Republican
Convention, composed almost entire
ly of colored men, nominate to re
sponsible offices notorious thieves,
and even persons who are at the time
under indictment for public robbery
and breach of trust. It is no uncom
mon thing for colored speakers iu a
canvass to threaten tho lives of ne
groes wlio should dare to vote any
but a straight Republican ticket, In
Southern Louisiana to this day col
ored field laborers are summoned
from their work to attend political
meetings “by order of General But
ler.’ We have seen a printed notice,
circulated by a white Republican
eaudidate fora local office, ordering
all colored men to vote for him, and
signed “U. S. Grant, President;” and
another in which the prosecuting
officer of a county threatened every
negro who voted against him with
tlie penitentiary and lie received the
solid colored vote. There ure hun
dreds of cases where men notorious
ly corrupt attain and retain office, by
the help alone of tlie colored vote, in
snileof their known ill deeds, because
theyassuinot.he name of Republicans.
Nor is this all, for it is a common oc
currence, in strong negro counties in
the Mouth, for colored demagogues
to sell the votes they control to the
highest Republican bidder; and even
to go about, before election, asking
men to become candidates for im
portant offices, iri order Unit t liny
may make a better market of the vot
ers. In those parts where the color
ed leaders control so large a majority
that they put themselves forward for
office it is notorious that only the
most ignorant, debased and corrupt
succeed. For instance, a negro treas
urer of a Mississippi county did not
know how to read, and was killed a
few months ago while iu office by an
other negro for a disreputable in
trigue.- The negro Htnte Superin
tendent of Public Instruction in tlie
same State is a known thief, who was
covered with indictments but a few
months ago. Yet at this time ho is
struggling for tlie control of the Re
publican party in Jackson and Vicks
burg, and honest Republicans can
only with diffiiculty keep him down.
A negro State Senator iu Louisiana,
who wields a great influence in the
politics of the. northern part of that
State, is the open ally of men convict
ed of a shameless robbery of tho
school fund. Another negro, member
of the State Board of Education and
lately member of the Legislature in
tho same State, actually gave a writ
ten receipt for a bribe. Sucli is the
character, too often, of the negros as
well us the whites who come into
power by the help of tlie colored
voters and under the plea that the
Republican party must he supported
by the blacks, and that, of course,
they are the Republican party.
Honest Republicans, whiteor black,
have very little influence in the con
ventions where these are composed
mainly of colored men. They are
powerless against the appeals of a
demagogue who flatters the ignorant
negro and in the same breath casts
suspicion upon the motives of the
honest adviser. If Professor Langs
ton and Mr. Frederick Douglass will
take the trouble to visit. Mississippi,
Alabama or Louisiana they will see
that it is a real and serious calamity
that tfie colored people stick so ig
norantly to the so-called Republican
party there, and they would lie the
most earnest lo advise them different
ly. What Mr. Langston ought to tell
his people in the South is to vote only
for honest men, no matter what they
call themselves or to what party they
belong; to seek the advice of a white
man whom they know to he sincere
and true, and whom they already
trust in all the relations of life, exeept
in their politics. The negro voter,
not with design or out of malice, but
ignorantly, tias, in u considerable
part of the South, opposed his vote
to all the interests of public virtue
and honesty and to the rights of
property. He has been taught by
demagogues that if lie has the major
ity he may do and authorize what
ever lie is told the Republican party—
which means in many such localities
simply a ring of thieves proposes.
It is a serious matter to sec men
like Professor Langston and Mr.
Douglass giving their influence to
perpetuate such abuses and flinging
themselvs ignorantly upon the side
of bad men. The negro in the notion ,
States, by so constantly and readily !
giving his vote to such a class, of;
course injures not only the commun- i
ity, but himself.

Macon, Ga., August 20.-Arrests
continue in liurko and other insur
rectionary counties, of tho negro
ring leaders. General Morris is re
ported to have escaped into >Soutli
Carolina. Affairs are less threaten
ing, and there will probably bo no
collision. No military force has been
sent to tlie scene of trouble, but citi
zens in largo numbers and well armed
have flocked from adjoining counties
to the assistance of their neighbors.
The uprising is confined to three or
four counties, and there is no appre
hension of trouble in other sections.
Excitement lias subsided.
Thr Troubled Counties.
Macon, August 20.—Latest reports
from Washington, Burke and Jeffer

About seventy of tho ring leaders
have boon arrested and are confined
in jail.
YVnsliltiffton County.
Savannah, August 20. Advices
from Tennille reports the capture of
Candy Harris, the principal leader
in the negro movement in Washing

night and lodged in jail. It is report
ed that Gov. Smith left Atlanta for
Washington county and will arrive
there to-night. He has so far declin
ed to order any military movement.
Dottier county.
Eastman, Ga., August 20. -The ru
mors are so conflicting that it is dif
ficult to get definite information.
We hoar there was a regiment of ne
groes drilling in Dublin yesterday
evening, the same that were on tho
east side of the river drilling last
week. They make no threats. White
parties from Laurens county were
hero yesterday, and again to-day, af
ter arms and ammunition to meet, an
expected attack to-morrow night.
They procured but few guns here, as
we were compelled to order a supply
from Macon last night, for our own
use. There is something up, but ev
rything seems quiet in this county,
though we are putting ourselves iu
proper condition to meet them if nec
essary. We hear the Sheriff of Lau
rens county has arrested some twenty
or thirty, and some have confessed
their plot, but this is doubtful, and,
perhaps, an exaggerated account.

PISTOL AND SHOT OCN.
Lumber City, Ga., August 20.—A

between Samuel Varnadore and A. J.

The cause of the trouble is said to bo

Jordan's Joyous Julep,
A Specific for Neuralgia.
TESTIMONIALS.
Fktkushurg, Va., Jan. 20th, 1875.
Johu L. Jordan, Esq.-Dear Sir: So well pleasod
am I with your Joyous Julep, that I hereby tes
tify to tho superior merit of your unequaled
preparation lor Neuralgia. I shall esteem my
self happy should even one of that worst of all
elasses of sufferers ho led through me to take tho
Julep. My wife has for ten (10) years boon a mar
tyr to the most malignant aud persistent neural
gic. torture, without being able to find any relief
except from your preparation. She was relieved
by the second dose as per directions, aud has not
had a return of it for two months. To some I
may seem strangely sanguine about your uiedi
eine, but I have a right to bo so. It is not rea
sonable to suppose this malignant malady would
have died of sheer exhaustion of capacity for
sustaining itself, and that too iu a minute, and
the very minute your medicine was taken. If so,
it is a most remarkuble, simple coincidence, aud
I prefer giving tho credit in your favor of tho
best testimony man can over have—experience.
Yury truly yours,
JAMES T. TOSH.
COLUMBUS, January 10, 1875.
Mr. Jordan:-l take great pleasure tu recoin,
mending your Joyous Julep for neuralgia,
has produced a most wonderful relief in one oi
the severest attacks of neuralgia my daughter
ever has had. She has been treated for it by
three skillful physicians, with very little benefit,
ami used all the usual remedies with little suc
cess. I can with much confidence hope for a per
manent cure. It is only two days since we began
the use of it, aud it is appaiently of permanent
benefit. Yaura, with respect.

THE SUN.
DAILY AND WEEKLY FOE 1875.
The approach of tho Presidential election gives
unusual importance to the events and develop
incuts of 1875. Wo shall endeavor to describe
them fully, faithfully aud fearlessly.
THE WEEKLY SUN has now attained a circula
tion of over eighty thousand copies. Its readers
are found in every State aud Territory, and its
quality is well Unowu to tho public. Wo shall
not only endeavor to keep it fully up to the old
standard, but to improve and add to its variety
and power.
THEW KEKLY SUN will continue to boa thor
ough newspaper. All tho news of the day will be
found in it, condensed when unimportant, at
full length when of moment, and always, we
trust, treated in a clear, Interesting and Instruct
ive manner.
It is our aim to make tho Weekly Sun tho best
family newspaper iu tho world. It will be full of
entertaining aud appropriate reading of every
sort, but will print nothing to offend the most
scrupulous aud delicate taste. It will always
contain the most interesting stories aud ro
mances of the day, carefully selected and legibly
printed.
Tho Agricultural Department is a prominent
feature iu the Weekly Sun, and its urticles Will
always bo found freßh aud useful to the farmer.
The number of men Independent in politieaml
especially. It belongs to no party, aud obeys no
dictation, contending for principle, and for tho
election of the best men. It exposes tho corrup
tion that disgraces the country aud threatens the
overthrow of republican institutions. It has no
fear of knaves, aud seeks no favors from their
supporters.
The inarkots of every kind aud the fashions
ure regularly reported.
The price of tho WEEKLY SUN is one dollar a
year for a sheet of eight pages, and fifty-six col
umns. As this barely pays tho expenses of paper
aud printing, we are not able to make any dis
count or allow any premium to friends who may
make special efforts to extend Its circulation.
Under tho new law, which requires payment of
postage in advance, one dollar a year, with twenty
(Hints the cost of prepaid postage added, is the
rate of subscription. It is not necessary to get
up a club in order to have tho Weekly Sun at this
rate. Any one who sends one dollar and twenty
cents will get the paper, postpaid fur one year.
We have no traveling agents.
THE WEEKLY SUN—Eight pages, 50 c

APPLETONS’
American Cyclopaedia.
New Revised Edition.
Entirely rewritten by tho ablest writers on every
subject. Printed from now typo, and illus
tratod with Several Thousand Engravings
and Maps.
Tho work originally published under tho title
of The New American Cyclopaedia was com
pleted in 18413. since which timo the wide circula
tion which it has attained iu all parts of the
United States, and the signal developments which
have taken place iu every branch of scieuce, lit
erature and art, have induced the editors aud
publishers to submit it to an exact aud thorough
revision, and to issue anew oditiou entitled The
American Cyclopaedia.
Within the last ten years tho progress of dis
covery in every department of knowledge lias
made a now work of reference an imperative
want.
The movement of political affairs has kept pace
with the discoveries of science, and their lruitfu
application to the industrial aud useful arts aud
the convenience and refinement of social life.
Great wars and consequent revolutions have oc
curred, involving nutionul changes of peculiar
moment. The civil war of our own country,
Which was at its height when the last volume ol
the old work appeared, Ims happily been ended,
ami anew course of commercial aud industrial
activity has been commenced.
Largo accessions to our geographical knowl
edge have been made by the indefatigable ex
plorers of Africa.
The great political revolutions of tho last de
cade, with the natural result of the lapse of time,
havo brought into public view a multitude of new
men, whose names arc in every one’s mouth, and
of whoso lives every one is curious to know the
particulars. Great battles have beeu teught aud
important sieges maintained, oi which the de
tails are as yet preserved only in the newspapers
or in the transient publications of the day, but
which ought now to take their placo iu perma
nent anil authentic history.
in preparing the present edition for the press, •
it has accordingly boon tin* aim of tho editors to
bring down tlie information to tho latest possi
ble dates, aud to furnish an accurate account of :
the most recent discoveries iu science, of every
fresh production iu literature, aud of the newest
inventions iu tho practical arts, as well as to give
a succinct and original record of tho progress of
political and historical events.
Tho work has been begun after long and care
ful preliminary labor, and with the most ample
resources for carrying it on to a successful term
ination.
None of tho original stereotype plates have
been used, but every page has been printed on
new type, forming in fact anew Cyelopindia, with
the same plan and compass as its predecessor,
but with a far greater pecuniary expenditure,
ami with such improvements iu its composition
as have beeu suggested by longer experience aud
enlarged knowledge.
The illustrations which aro introduced for the
first time in the present edition Lave been added
uot for the sake of pictorial effect, but to give
greater lucidity and force to the explanations iu
the text. They embrace all branches of science
and of natural history, and depict tho most
famous and remarkable features of scenery,
architecture anti art. as well as tho various pro
cesses of mechanics aud manufactures.
Although intended for instruction rather than
embelisimient. no pains have been spared to in
sure tiieir artistic excellence; tho cost of their
execution is enormous, and it is believed they
will find a welcome reception as an admirable
feature of tho Cyclopaedia, and worthy of its
high character.
This work is sold to Subscribers only, payable
on delivery of each volume. It will bo completed
in sixteen largo octavo volumes, each containing
about 800 pages, fully illustrated with several
thousand Wood Engravings, and with numerous
colored Lithographic Maps.

MALARIA!
Read, Reflect and Act.
If oue grain of Vaccine Virus, taken from the
cow’s udder and kept dry for years, then mois
tened, and the keenest point of a Lancet dipped
in it aud drawn geutly on tho arm, so sa not to
draw the blood, will so impregnate and change
tho entiro ayatem as to prevent the party ao vac
cinated from takiug tho most loathsome of dis
eases (small pox) for an entire life; agaiu, if the
Celebrated Eucalyptus treo will change an unin
habitable malarial district into a healthy, salu
brious clime, by simply absorbing from the at
mospbero the poison malaria, why will not the
S roper remedy, properly applied, neutralize and
cßtroy tho poison, known its malaria, and thus
enable parties to inhabit malarial districts with
impunity?
We claim that there is such a remedy, and that
we have prepared it, aud applied it, and proved
it iu our Auti-molurial or Euchymial Bolt—and
that persons who will wear this Belt may inhabit
the worst malarial districts without the fear of
having any diseases arising from malaria; such as
Chills aud Fever, Billlous or Intermittent Fever.
Yellow Fever, Jaundice, Enlarged Liver and
Spleen, ladigestiou, Constipation and Hem
orrhoids, and tha it will cure all the above dis
eases, except the worst cases of Billioua and Yel
low Fever.
This is called an Anti-malarial or Euchymial
Belt, as it corrects the humors of thr oody and
produces a healthy action, invigorating the sys
tem, and thus enabling it to per orm its various
duties without fearing the effects of malaria iu
the least..
It lias been tried in thousands of cases without
a failure.
They can be obtained lrom the proprietors in
any quantity at the Powell Building, junction of
Broad and Peachtree streets, Atlanta, Ga.
Price for a single Belt $3, or $5 with a guaran
tee tliut it will cme or the money refunded.
N. B.—None genuine without the trade mark
is stamped upon them.

Messrs. Love k Willson: Gentlemen—ln April
last 1 was taken sick with regular Fever ami
Ague, having It every alternate day. After it had
run on mo for two weeks, I was induced to try
one of your Auti-malarial belts; so I discarded all
medicine, and simply wore one of your Belts, as
directed, and my Ague became lighter each suc
cessive time thereafter for some three or four
times, wheu it left mo entirely, withs good appe
tite aud clear skin; and in future, if I should ever
have a Chi 11 or Ague, I would want one of your Pads,
and no physic. Wishing everybody that may bo
so unfortunate as to Lave Chills and Fever may
be for lunuto enough to get one of your Belts,
I am, respectfully, etc.,

Drs. Love k Willson:
Ou tho first duy of December last I was taken
with Chills and Fever iu Thoinasville, Southwes
tern Ga., and was treated for the same by three
eminent physicians who were able to stop it only
for a few days at a time. It made such inroads
on my constitution that my physician pronoun
ced me to be in the first stages of consumption,
wh en I accidentally met up with Drs. Love k Will
sou’s Auti-malarial Belt, which has entirely cured
me. I have had but one chill since, and that was
the first day after putting It on. lam now iu as
good health as I ever was iu my lile, and think
this Belt a God-send to the afflicted.

Borne nine years ago I contracted malaria in
Savannah, Ga., from which I have suffered, at
times, ever siuce, until I mot up with Drs. Love k.
Willson's Anti-malarial Belt some three months
ago. I have worn it continually, and have had no
chill since, and find my general health, which
has been poor, much improved. I would recom
mend it to others suffering with malaria.

and other remedies, and that they failed till they
