CALHOUN TIMES. ELAM CHRISTIAN, ■ - ■ ~ EDITOR. CAJLHOIJN. GA; "jk TIIURSDAYisEPTEMB’R 29,1870. Democratic Nominees. FOR CONORESS 7TH DISTRICT, GEN. P. M. B. YOUNG, OF BARTOW. FOR STATE SENATOR, Hon. L. N. TRAMMELL, OF WHITFIELD. FOR REPRESENTATIVE, Hon. J. O. FAIN, OF CALHOUN. t&r The sad affliction of the editor’s family, in the death of a loved one, will account for the lack of original matter in this number of our paper. tGF* The Democratic State Executive Committee, met in Macon on the 27th, and elected Clifford Anderson, Chair man. The Democratic Convention at For syth, on the 21st, nominated Col. Wil burne J. Lawton, for Congress for the Fourth District. The Rome Commercial learns that the Van Wert Railroad Company have purchased the foundry and machine shop at Cartersville, with a view to locating its railroad shops at that place. The First District. —The Demo cratic Convention of the First District met at Blackshear on the 21st, and nom inated Mr. W. W. Payne, of Savannah, for the 41st, and Mr. A. T. Mclntyre, of Thomasville, for the 42d Congress. llon. J. C. Fain. —We place at our masthead to-day the name of Hon. J. C. Fain, as the chosen standard bearer of the Democracy of Gordon county. We deem it altogether unnecessary to urge upon our people the importance of uni ting in their efforts to elect him by a majority sufficient to give old Gordon the name of the banner Democratic county in the next election. Tennesse e. —General Jfchn C. Brown, of Giles county, was nominated unanimously for Governor of Tennessee by the Democrats of that State in con vention assembled at Nashville, on the 13th inst. He is a younger brother of ex-Gov. Neil S. Brown, of that State. It would be difficult to find two brothers who have greater cause to be proud of such a fact. Yellow Fever in Mobile. —From gentlemen who arrived from Mobile yes terday, says the Atlanta Era , we learn that this dreaded disease has made its appearance in that city. Fifteen cases and four deaths were reported on Tues day. So far the disease is confined to Spanish Alley and similar localities, but fears are entertained that it will become an epidemic. - The Akerman Bill. Asa part of the history of these dis jointed times, we give the substance of Akerman’s no-election bill in another column, as it passed the Senate last week. Since the bill has been thorougholy ven tilated, and all its glaring frauds made plain to the people, even some dyed-in the-wool Republicans fail to be able to stomach the measure, and one prominent man of that party has written a commu nication for an Atlanta paper condemn ing the bill in strong terms. So far as we can learn, but very few of the most sanguine Radicals have any hopes of carrying this measure through the House of Representatives. Our Atlanta Directory. We begin our “Directory” for the city of Atlanta in which we are only able to offer a few cards as yet, but are confident that when the merchants of that fast city can be convinced of the advantages to be gained by advertising in The Times, they will fill several columns of our paper. We present firs* to our readers the Auction House of Barrett & Mayson, which we can recommend as a reliable house. Both members of this firm are old and experienced business men.— Next we present Messrs Menko Bro. & Cos. This is a good and reliable firm; and one that will do you justice—they also sell goods low. We will now turn our attention to the Ladies for a few minutes, and introduce to their attention the Hair Dressing establishments of Miss S. A. Strock, and madame Wilda. These are both industrious hard work ing Ladies, and seem determined to work their way up the Ladder of for tune. Miss Strock'will also do all kinds of Millinery and Dress Making. After these comes our young friend Otis Jones, who is just starting in life, and we can only hope that he may be able to get along without the law, but if any of our patrons in this region are disposed to litigation, we advise them to send their cases to him. But we cannot close our notice of the Atlanta business Directory without mentioning the fact that F. M. Jack has more Gooddics than any or perhaps every one else in the city, and if you dont believe what we say, call and see him when you go to Atlanta. The State Road. The Augusta Chronicle proposes that the State Road be placed under the management of three Commissioners — one to be the President of the Georgia Railroad, one the President of the Cen tral Railroad, and the other to be ap pointed by the Governor, with the ad vice and consent of the Senate. The Board is to continue in office five years, to test the workings of the system. Without haring had the time to give much thought to the plan, a cursory reflection upon it rather prepossesses us in its favor. We are disposed to think there is some gum in it. One thing is undoubtedly apparent, that some disposition must be made of the road. The management has con fessed to incompetency. With a heavy income, and in good order, as it daims, it yet has to call upon the State to help it. While other roads, less favored, have become independent and successful, this great and prosperous enterprise whines pitifully for aid to do its business. The remedy is not to give more money to an inefficient management to throw away to no purpose on the road, but to take it clear nut of pnliiios and put it in the hands of practical, intelligent, experienced and able professional rail road men. We had thought, some days ago, of suggesting the plan of leasing the State Road to the Georgia, Macon and Wes tern, Central, Atlanta and West Point, and Macon and Brunswick Railroad companies, said companies to keep it in good order, and give bond for paying all above the expenses into the treasury, and returning the road in good condition to the State, the said companies to select a superintendent, etc. This plan has its advocates, and presents many points of advantage. But we are rather dis posed to think the Chronicle’s project the best. The Legislature. In the Senate, Friday, several rail road bills were passed, and others read the first time. The Relief bill was ta bled. The substitute was discussed by sections, amended and passed. A mes sage from the Governor, returning the Savannah bill without his approval, was tabled. An attempt was made to hold an afternoon session, but, as there was no quorum present, the body was com pelled to adjourn. In the House, a motion to reconsider the Tax bill was lost. The Senate amendments to the School bill were con curred in, with the exception of the one striking out the 22d section. A resolu tion, inviting the President of the Uni ted States and his Cabinet to visit the Fair, was not taken up. A number of bills were read the third time and pass ed. BSaT* The Louisville Courier-Journal says it has received a communication from a politician who stood high in the favor of the South in years gone by, in which a somewhat novel view of the sit uation is given out. “My opinion is very decided,” he says, “that the South should hold itself aloof from both parties in the North. As long as the Northern Democrats have to carry the Southern Democrats they will be damaged by the cry of ‘rebel.’ In the old time the South ern Whigs were kept down by the cry of ‘abolition,’ because of their associa tion with the free-soil element at the North. The South should not commit the blunder of destroying her influence by becoming a direct party to any nom ination for President. She should keep out of nominating conventions, nominate electors only, and leave the election of a President open until she sees how the result is at the North, and then make the best bargain she can. The fight is to be fought on Northern ground.— Therefore let parties at the North fight it out, leaving us to make our own terms with the winner.” All Hopes of Peace Abandoned. —The latest by the cable states that all hopes of peace between Prussia and France have been abandoned. Favre has expressed his willingness to acceed to a plan, to satisfy Prussia, for electing a representative assembly, and thus ob tain the voice of the duly accredited government in making terms of peace ; but the King of Prussia’s counsellors positively refuse an armistice, and will make peace only on condition of retain ing possession of the districts now occu pied until the terms are ratified by the constituent assembly. Although the question of terms is not yet reached, M. Favre informs his associates in the Gov ernment that the cession of Alsace will certainly be the ultimatum of Prussia, and he has little hope of success in his mission. Mr. Alexander Delma, the sta tistician, formerly comptroller of one of the financial bureaus at Washington, de nies that the federal debt is being re duced as alledged by Secretary Bout well, and offers to pay $5,000 to any charitable institution the “Tribune” may name “if it can show that, in point of fact, no deficit occurred, and the public debt did not increase” during the past fiscal year. —« ♦»- Nashville, Sept. 25.—The munici pal election was carried by 2,000 major ity. Both branches Democratic. Tax Bill. The following tax bill was adopted by sections:!

Mr. llawles offered a resolution pro viding that no taxes should be c< 'llected until the State was represented in Con gress, and said that there was as much sen&e and justice in it as in the proviso to the 15th section. This resolution was not entertained. Affairs in South Carolina.— The Chronicle & Sentinel , of Friday, says: There was in the city, yesterday, a planter from Laurens county. S. C. —the scene of the present troubles between the whites and negroes. He stated that before he left home the conduct of the negroes had been such as to lead the white inhabitants to expect nothing less than a war of races. The whites had sought no difficulty and desired none, but they were determined to defend themselves when attacked. While in the city he purchased five bags of buck shot for himself and his neighbors. He said that when he returned home these hauKshot would be made into cartridges ready for use in shot-guns.— He had seen armed negroes marching past his house after night, and this, ad ded to their threatening indications, left him no reason to doubt that trouble was coming, and he and his neighbors wish ed to be prepared for the worst. The insurrection in Laurens, which occurred after he left home: show that he was right in his conjectures.' North Carolina Affairs. —Late advices from army officers and other disinterested residents of North Carolina indicate that there is pretty general acquiescence in the recent Democratic victories, and that the whole political power of the State will be peaceably transferred to Conservative hands.— There is much exultation among the Conservatives, and it is believed a serious attempt will be made to impeach Gov. Holden for paying his militia in defiance of the orders of the courts. As the Democrats, although with ample strength in the Lower House,' have only a bare party majority in the Senate, this would seem to be a ridiculous undertaking.— But gentlemen who have arrived from the State say that they expect to gain over in the Senate enough nominal Re publicans who are personally opposed to Holden to convict him. ♦ »- They tell of foundryman in New Or leans who is so pious that he will only make upright boilers. The Election Bill. Tho Election Bill, as it passed the Senate, and has been transmitted to the House provides: That the time for holding an election this yearshall be changed from the Tues day following the first Monday in No vember to the 20th day of December, and further that the election be protract ed for three days. The election shall be held at county seats and in incorporate towns and cities where precincts have been established; thus abolishing other precincts. The Governor is to appoint five men as Managers at each precinct. The Managers so appointed are requir ed to attend under a penalty of one hun dred dollars. They shall not permit any person to challenge any vote, or hinder, or delay, or interfere w ith any other person in the free and speedy casting of his ballot. They are to prevent disturbances near the polls, and allow only one person at a time to approach within fifteen feet of the polls, and may, if they see fit, require the persons desiring to vote to form themselves into a line, and when a line is thus formed said managers shall pre vent any persons not in the line from ap proaching the polling place nearer than fifty feet, but in no case shall more than one vote at any time be permitted to ap pioaeli tlic polls ucoici tiian fifteen feet. The said manrgers, or any two of them, shall have power, by patrol, to order the arrest and confinement during the day of any person distuabing the peace at or .near the polls, or disobeying any reason able order for the enforcement of these provisions for the preservation of order and the protection of voters; and the sheriff and his deputy shall also have pow er, without warrant to arrest, or order the arrest of any person for the causes aforesaid. Each night during the election the ballot-box is to be sealed and left in the hands of one manager, while another is to take the key. The bill, however, does not explain who is to take charge of the managers. These are a few of the many objec tionable points in the bill, and are suf ficient to defeat the "whole scheme, and we believe it will if it approximates any thing like a fair consideration in the House.— Sun. — An enterprising Yankee wants to take the contract from the Prussian government for reducing Paris. For this service he asks a hundred thous and Prussian soldiers, whom he will arm and subsist while in his employ. For forty-five francs per soldier he promises to pillage the city; for fifty to pillage and rapine; for forty six to pillage, rapine, and burn. He is to do every bit of it by machinery, for which he has patents. o Life Insurance. —Two hundred and fifty millions of dollars are invested in life insurance by our people at the present moment, and this vast sum*is being augmented at the rate of fifty or sixty millions of dollars a year. The six hundred thousand policies in force in the United States represent the future pecuniary support of half a million American families. How important, then is it that each State should have its own life insurance companies, that their management be kept in the hands of well known and reliable men, and that their government be regulated by wholesome legislation. Florida to be Redeemed. —A sub scriber writes us cheeringly from Mon ticello, under date 21st instant. He says: “I am certain Florida will redeem herself this fall, and elect h Lieutenant- Governor and Congressmen, of the pure metal, and also give us a Democratic majority in the Senate. It would be a lasting blessing to impeach Reed, try him before a Jury of honest men, and send him where he ought to be, in the Penitentiary for life, ironed by nights and worked hard from sun to sun.” Dispatches from Berlin state that the Constitution for the German Union is being prepared. Herr Dilbruck is preparing forma 1 i ties for proclaiming Frederick Emp< ror of Germany. New Advertisements. STATE OF GEORGIA, Gordon Covxty. — H. K. Hicks, Guardian of J. C.
