Dtt Felton and his supporters are. constantly holding up their Democracy as being unexceptional. Perhaps this is well enough. We once k ,ew a school hoy who was constantly making pic lures of animals on his slate, and they so poorly represented the originals, for fear someone would not not know fur what it was intended he would write uo dor <ach the name in big letters ‘ This is a horse,” &c. Col Dabney is making an active canvass against the Radicals and disor ganizes, and we hear the most gratify ing reports in his favor from all parts of the District. This week we have seen citizens from Cobb who say he will carry that county and per haps Polk, while iu Bartow and Floyd he will increase his vote over the last election. Gordon, Chattooga, Murray, Catoosa, Walker and Dade are safe for him. Dr. Felton has at last’found a stump speaker willing to aid him in his disor ganization scheme. This man is Gen. Tatum Wofford. They spoke together at Rome on the 11th, and we use the lan guage of the Rome Courier to describe the scene : “Felton praised Wofford and Wofford prasLd Feltor, and, to use the expression of a competent judge, a more vapory, gassy swash of mutual boct-licking was never before poured out before an intelligent audience.” It is a painful fact that wherever the Democracy met defeat in the election week, it was through the work ings of independent (so-called) Demo crats, and they are responsible for the election of the few negroes who will take their seats in January in our Gen* oral Assembly. Evert in our neighbor ing county of Bartow a negro cauie within :t small vote of being elected. — ■"'till sensible Democrats wi'l tack on to them and help hoist them into office when they should krow they are the deadliest enemies we have to deal.-with. A TIMELY ROOK. iiislerv of the Foiled States from the Abotiginal Times to the Present Day. By-John Clark Ridpath, A. M. Pro fessor of History and Belles Letters. Indiana Asbury University.

Mem phis and Atlanta. jt is now the pleasure, as it has always been the duty, of every citizen to inform himself thoroughly upon all that per tains to the history ami progress of our Free Republic; and never was the path (, 1 duty more clearly the path of pleas - j ure, than is the perusal of this work, i ihe brilliant style,the evidence of care ful research,the power ot illustration and c itidensation, the line touches of philoso phy, and keen analysis of character and motives, all constitute it the best popu- i lar history of America that has yet ap peared. Every material, from theTirsT" voyage of the Northmen o the shores of Massachusetts and Labrador, to tlfe opening of the Centeuuial at Philadel phia, it set down in its order, anijthe whole record bound together' with a chain of philosophy which renders it un que as the production of yiginal genius. A noctworthy feature of the work is the method in which the author has summed up the character, acts and mo° tives of the various prominent men, each summary giving us a better idea ofthc man than we could have obtained from a volume of the ordinary disserta tions. Where is there to be found in the English language a finer summary than this : “The new president, though not yet thirty years, was a veteran ir. every kind of valuable experience. Born an Englishman, trained as a soldier in the wars of Holland ; a traveler in France, Italy and Egypt; again a soldier in Hungary ; captured by the Turks and sold as a slave ; sent from Constantino ple to a prison in Crimea ; killing a task - maker who beat him, and then escaping through the woods of Russia to Western Europe ; going with an army of adven turcisagainst Morocco ; finally returning to England and joining the London Company—le was now called upon by the very enemies who had persecuted and ill-treated him to rescue them and their col ny from destruction. A strange and wonderful career! John Smith was ultogher the most noted man in the early history of America. The work is divided into historical periods, of which the first is devoted to the Indians before the discovery. Next to be treated is the Period of Voyage and Discovery. The third division the Colonial Pe riod, w hich is treated with signal abili ty. Then comes the Period of Revo lution and Confederation, ending with the adoption of the Constitu ion, which ushers us ir to the National Period. The fairness and impartiality of the work cannot be too highly commended. The autho.r evidently knows no North or South, no East or West in affection ; all are included in his catholic liberality and ardent patriotism. The closing re view should be studied ny every citizen. The spirit in which the author wrote, shines forth in the following extract : “The idea that the United States are one Nation r and not tliirty°eight nations-, is the grand cerdinrall doctrine ofu sound political faith. State pride ami section-, al attachment are natural passions ii the human breast, and so near akin to patriotism as to be distinguished from C only in the court of a higher reason,. But there is a nobler love of goyiptry a patriotism that rises above all places and sections, that knows no. County, no State, no North, no Suuih, but only uu tive land; that claims no mountain slope ; that clings to no river bank ; that worships no range of hill.s ; but lifts the aspiring eye to a continent re deemed from oarVarism hy common sac rifices, and made sacred by. the shed ding of .kindred blood. Such a patriot ism is the cable and shoeb-acchor of our ho; e.” We have never examined a volume with greater satisfaction, and we are confident that these who pn cure this valuable book, will unite with us in say ing that it is altogether the best ilisto ry cf the United States that has yet been published.
