T. 0- Milneh has returned from the
Centennial.
Farmers are putting in a [good crop
of small grain, we learn.
We were pleased to meet Mr. llan
bury of the Daltou Enterprise, Wednes
day in Calhoun. lie was attending the
mass meeting.
If this issue does not reach its read*
ers as soon as it ought to, and contaius
less than its usual quota of reading, the
same is attributable to the fact that a
future editor at our house has divided
our time with office affairs for the last
lew days.
The tinted leaves of autumn are cov
ering the earth in the forest, there to
mould and decay while the frosty morn
ings and the chill breezes which make
one enjoy the comforts of a blazing
fire each goto remind us that the ad'
tent of winter is very near. llow thank
ful ought they to feel who bear not the
desolating pangs of want and have piled
around their hearthstones the necessi
ties&nd comforts of life. The summer
has been a hard one, and the winter
will come on finding many struggling
against adversities and gaining by the
strongest efforts but a poor share of these
comforts, and reader.there may be those
near your door whose sufferings will ap
peal to yourjsympathies for aid. Such
turn not awav empty but heed the com
mand of the Master, for He hassaid,

Cartersville, Ga., Oct. 22, 1876.
Editor Times:
Dr. Felton and his supporters seem
do think his election dependent upon
-the downfall of their opponents.
Where I have crossed their tracks in
(the upper counties of the district I find
■this tale put iu circulation : '‘John VV.
Wofford was nominated Elector for the
State at Large, by mistake. The mem
ibirs of the thought they
were nominating Uetfl. William Tatum
Wofford.” I will tell the facts and then
let those who feel an interest in the ques
tion say how it is.
The tru h is, this is all p-etense. —
wGen’l. William T. Wofford’s identity
was as well known to the people of the
State as that ofany man in it. He was
Alternate Elector on the Seymour ticket
an 1868,was Elector on the Greely tick
et in 1872. was nominated for the Unit
ed States Senate in 1868 by the Demo*
*crats uf the Buliuok Legislature and re.
fused to run against Gov. Brown who
Avas the Republican candidate; had
run a gait s •Young twice for Congress
n the 7th. District, and agaiust Smith
for Governor iu 1872. And to the fore
going can be added, that when the
Convention of the 7th District assembled
iu Cartersville on May last fur the pur
pose of sending delegates to the State
Convention,Mr. John 0. Ayecockol the
Bartow delegation announced the name
.of Gen’l. William T. Wofford as a com.
petitor with me fur the place; when
ithe v ites were counted l reci veu 27 and
'Ceneial William T. Woftoid 2. This
*Conven‘ioti was held in the county
where we both live, abd where a ques
tion of identity could, not well arise.
In the State Convention my name
was anounced as a candidate for elector
bv Mr. McKibben of the county of
Butts. Col. D. Waddell who
‘was Secretary of the Convention and
who’s duty tt was to enter on he record
the name (>f each candidate as it was
announced, not understanding which it
wis, asked from the Clerk’s desk which
one was meant. Capt. Thomas J. Ly
on, a member of the Bartow delegation,
arose and said, in a distinct voice, “ It
is John $. Wofford, and not Gen. Wm.
T. Wofford. The ballot proceeded, and
! i was elected.
It docs appear to me that this plain
.statement of facts ought to put at re3t
this silty story but I have no idea thut
at will. John W. Wofford.

TO THE FARMKKS OF GOII
DON COUNTY.
Hurrah! for Our Farmer Con-
Felton.
He does not belong to the legal La
dernity, therefoie they fight him. Did
you ever notice the crowd who abuse
and slander him ? If you did, you will
find every lawyer north of the Chattuhoo.
chec, with a few exception, (to their
honor be it said) is fighting him with
all manner of lies *nd vi!lficiation.
Why is this? Let me tell you. We
broke the back bone of that ring two
years ago, with our farmer, and they in
tend to crush him by all the cunning de
wic s known to them. Afier the war,a
set of cunning politicians got into power
when honest men's hands were tied.
They have made fortunes by it, and
they don’t want a man in office icho is
too honest to be bought,t oo honorable to
be tribed, too independent to truckle and
bend to party tricks. He is in their icay
He docs not agree to lead the hard
working sons of toil by •he nose, up to
the polls—and then kick them back to
the plow handles and say, ‘ you are only
fit to pay the taxes' * He stands by the
fanner, the producer. He kuows their
difficulties—he knows the oppression
of unjust legislation. Dr. Felton is a
.farmer. This cry of Radical is only a
■bug-a-too to scare you off the track.
Look arouud you and tell me if Dab*
neyites have any claim to simon pure
democracy? Farmers of Gordon —we
are going to run the Congress machine
a little. Let them cry Radical ,and then
■affiliate with Shears and Goodwin. —
Let them cry disorganizer and yet start!
confessed to the world as the greatest
fet of disorganizes known to Georgia.
Ihe corruption disorganized them and
they knowjt. We will stand by our
.farmer —Blue Jeans carried Indiana,
tu d our farmer shall lead us.

PROGRESS OF THE CAMPAIGN.
Old Gordon Wheels into Litife.-
The Speaking and Barbecue
Wednesday Young and
Foster on the Slump.
The People Aroused for the November
Struggle.
As last Wednesday’s sun bestrode
her wonted path the streets of Calhoun
were being filled with Gordon’s sturdy
sons, who had laid aside their busy
toils at home to join in the country’s
effort tor liberation from the despoiler’s
clutches and the oppressor’s iron heel.
The earth had necome baked for the
need of nature’s grand agency, and the
welconu rain came to moisten the soil
for plowing in small grain hut a while
before the day this demonstration was
to be held ; yet when misrule was to
be checked, and equal rights secured to
all throughout this broad land by the
success of the gland old Democracy,
the hearts of Democrats burned with
patriotism, and knew no sacrifice too
great for the occasion. The crowd
gathered at the Court House, and we
have not seen the day when her hon
ored walls smiled upon so vast a politi
cal gathering, and one which so well
represented the patriotism and intelli"
gence of our proud old county.
Gen. P. M. B. Yonng was the first
orator introduced. Many Gray-haired
sires gathered near the stand to hear
ttte truth as it flowed from the lips of
this noble son of Georgia, and many of
the crowd showed interest by gathering
close around the railing, while the
benches in the rear held a weighty
share of the eager throng, whose tem
pers woukl escape their bounds and with
accordant voices give the occasional
command of‘‘Down in front.”
Gen. Yonng, in substance said :
Friends and Fellow- Citizens :
I am before you upon a few hours no
tice and congratulate myself that I am
able to meet you and discuss the ques.
tions before us in the coming elections.
I aui glad to meet so many of my fellovr
ci izens of Gordon county. All ought to
be here to>day. They should hear all
sides before coming to final judgment.
I am not here, my friends, to subserve
any interest of my owl or any individ
aul upon the face o f the earth, but in
in the interest ol the party which se
cures y< ur lights and liberties. I come
also to tell of maladministration and
mis government, which if you do not feel
in because you have a few good men at
home who guard with honest wisdom
your local rights and interests. The first
convention which nominated Giant for
President promised you peace and press
perity, and they have sinec with insult
again and again flung those promises
unredeemed into your face. Grant him*
sell said, “Let us have peace.” Have
you had peace 'l Go to Louisiana and
ask your brothers there what kind of
peace they have had. This administra
trution sent the bayonet there to con
trol her elections and thr< ttle the peo
pie's will, and when a legislature had
been elected under the statutes made
by negroes and scalawags, and whin
found Deuioc a tic, Phil Sheridan woo
happened there notified the Secnttry of
War that there was no safety
for life and property in that
State, and upon this he was immediate
ly put in command. When it was
found necessary to throw out a certain
number of’votes to make a Republican
majority, his soldiers marched in and
violently took possesion of the persons
of five members and ejected them at
the point of the bayonet. That is the
peace Louisiana got, and lie who goes
to the polls and votes the Republican
ticket endorses this sovereign out ~gc
upon the people of Louisiana. The
speaker then referred to the condition
of South Carolina. Low many are
here, said he, whose kindred lie
buried upon the soils of that poor old
State ? It was once an honor as great
almost as that of being a member of Com
gress to belong to the Legislature of
tiiat State, but now a miserable set of
scalawags sit within its walls; and
troeps had at last been sent there to
keep the people under subjection, and
from casting a respectable ballot. That
is the peace of South Carolina. The
present party is not a party of peace
but a party of war. Napoleon once
said ihere was peace in France, but
it was when the iron hoof of his squad -
rons ramr upon every pavement and
every road. Here the speaker void his
hearers how Grant, counseled by bad
adviseis, had brought disgiace upon the
country, and detailed the mis-rable
facts in the Belknap case,; nd the wliis*
ky frauds, which had defrauded the
government of one hundred million
dollars, There is only one party you can
belong to, said he, in this struggle
You have either got to stand by the par
ty of reform, or by this party of rot
tenness and corraption. The cannon’s
muzzle now stands ready to open upon
your fellow-citizens in South Carolina
because they are to vote for '.Fade
Hampton for Governor. Are you ready
to help them ? How can you hlep
them ? You can only help them by stand
ing by the only organization which has
promised good to the country.
Gen. Young next addressed his vast
audience upon the questions ol disor
ganization at home, and dwelt pleadingly
upon the great issues involved in the
casting of their ballots.. He expressed
his feelings at reaching home
bouyed up with hopes lor lilden alter a
sojourn in the North only to find his
fellow-citizens split iu twain, wnile
their enemies at the North were in one
solid column against them. Baid he,
what care I for men when considering the
good of my party ? Col. Dabney is the
nominee of the party. We are crossing
the stream and it is no time to swap
horses. Why was Col. Dabney not
fairly nominated t and what is the rea
son you can not support him ? [A voice :
We’ll all do it—all the Democrats will ]
Why do the Republicans support Dr.
Felton ? Ido not know wha promises
be ha 9 made. But they can t eect one
of their own party, and they do the
next best thing—support the independ
ent candidate who is i.i opposition to
the Democratic party. Democrats, I
admouish you to vote for true and tried
men of your party —Tilden, Hendricks,
and Dabney, and you will yet one day
realize that you live in a country not
bound by rivers and hills, but cemented
by the affections of the people.
Gen. Young took his seat amid the
applause of the crowd, and Col. Geo. N.
Lester was introduced, who made a
lengthy speech, filled with solid sense
and sparkling humor.
He said he never thought ol Geor.
gia but he did not thank God for cast
ing his lot among her people. He told
an anecdote in which a gcoa old brother
at a class meeting once had reached the
highest pitch of good feeling, and was
rather anxious that those who sought
the hand of mercy should show many
signs of grief, and wondered why among
those who gathered at the sanctuary
there were none who bore upon their
faces the evidence he wished to see. At
last frooi far tack in the congregation
a female figure glided to the front bench
es and dropped upon her kuees with
h aviness, while her exclamations and
the distortions of her face plainly ex
pressed her agony. Tb e good old broth
er advanced, laid his hand upon her
head and said “Brethren, my morey’s
on this woman.” Like this old man, his
money was on Georgia. Georgia was the
first State to throw off the shackles of
reconstruction. See again how proudly
she marched up on the fourth of Octo
her.
Col. Lester reviewed the Democratic
platform, dwelt upon the powers of Mr.
Tilden to carry out its principles, find
closed by aa allusion to Dr. Felton, and
his course, calling upon the Democrats
to stand by the organization in this
hour of peril. Col. Lester by his tire
less address completely sotr rnanded the
attention and brought forth the applause
of his hearers from beginning to end-
Col.Trammell being present was called
for loudly, and excused himself from an
address. He proposed three cheers for
Tilden, Hendricks and Dabney, which
was responded to with great earnest.
After the speeches were finished the
crowd made its way to the groun s lo
cated near the railroad in rear of the
Calhoun Hotel, where was a mest temp
ting display of barbecued meats wailing
to win their affections. As night drew
in her sable curtains, and the weary sun
sank to rest beneath the western skies,
the noble men of Gordon returned to
their homes, many of them convinced
that they had listeued to the truth and
that the hope of the country laid in a
solid front arrayed against the corrupt
power,and the same would brim: a peace
ful government, and reclaim the country
from che disgrace of her rulers. Wed
nesday will be remembered as a day for
Democracy.

Political.
The Century of Indep nilence em
braces a collection from official sources
of tha most important documents and
statictios connected with the political
history of America : also a chronogical
record of the principal events from its
discovery to the present time with bio
graphical and historical skeches, etc.
Printed in German and Englished.
Nearly 600 pages. Price 82.0 L
Never before has so much practical
information of this nature been pub’ish
ed in any one volume.
While there are many treatise pur
porting to give valuable statistics of
America in convenient form, it will be
found upon examination that they
contain a voluminous amount of mat*
ter which is of no utility to any citi
zen.
A comparison of the various produc
tions w'll convince any intelligent per*
son that the “Century of Independence”
embraces the important documents to be
ound in them all while it omits that
which is superfluous and adds instead a
vast collect! mof invaluable facts. No
other arrangement gives one-fourth the
information in the same spaee and the
arrangement is what makes it inval
uable as a reference book, it having
been complied under the immediate
supervision of officials at Washing
ton
Ihe lawyer, banker, merchant and
farmer will each conclude that it must
have been prepared especially wi‘h ref
ference to his convenience.
It is designated for this work to take
the place in politics that Webster’s Dic
tionary does in language, and Appleton’s
Gazetteer in general literature. The
binding, paper an! illustralions have
been made to compare with the general
character of the work.
Though a person can be a good citi
zen without a thorough education, no
good citizen can enjoy the right of fran
chise intelligently without possessing the
information contained in this book.
While persons refuse to purchase or a
dinary or expensive work*, all classes
will gladly avail themselves of the op
portunity for obtaining a work so indisv
pensable at so low a price.
