Wc know full woll there exists ;it pr oseut in the minds of the mass of the Democratic voters of Gordon coun ty a feeling of prejudice —almost of bitterness—against nominations, yet wc reel a deep interest in our county elec tions and believe that the exigencies of the times demand some means of organ ization to sHrurc success. Democrats need o-ot expect tat quibble among them -«r!ves arid keep the Radical party out •of power. It is well known that on •the 11th of this month at a meeting tield at the Court House delegates were appointed in each militia district to Yneet here on last Tuesday to determine upon the mode of selecting a Democrat ic candidate. Tuesday came, but a quorum of such delegates appointed were not present, consequently nothing was done, and there the matter rests at present, and a scrub race will naturally follow, unless something shall change the order of things. There are in Gor don county about 1,500 voters —1,200 Democratic, 300 Republican. We be* licTC this is about the proper estimate. From the present outlook the Democra cy will have about six candidates for the Legislature, the Radicals one. Now admit that the Democratic vote will he equally divided among these six Dem ocrats, and the Radical vote is all con centrated on their one candidate, isn’t the Radical elected? Where is our remedy? Who of the Democratic candidates will come down ? If the Rem tcracy are still disposeJ to act there is even time yet. Why not hold a primary election ? Wo notice this method of selecting candidates is pro ving successful and satisfactory in other counties of the State. We need ex pect to accomplish nothing now or hereafter without system and organiza tion, it isn’t in the history of parties, and if one time more than another, we need now work in concert. Democrats, ponder and act. Third Grand Industrial Exposition at Louisville. The Third Grand Industrial ExposL tion at Louisville, opens on the Ist day of September and closes on the 17th day of October. The invitation extended to the of this paper, gives the most flattering promise of the complete ness and beauty of this third grand re sult of Louisville energy and enterprise. The art gallery will be on the largest seal i, and embrace many of the great est works of art in this couutry. In the variety and general display of the features that make up an Industrial Ex position, we are promised an improve ment on the two previous seasons, and are satisfied that the visitor will find himself richly repaid by a careful spectiou of the thousands of evidence of man’s inventive power, ingenuity and in dustry. The natural history and oth er scientific departments will be of the widest interest to students and lovers of the curious in natuio, and in extent and variety, will be the largest* ever exhibL ted. llie railronds terminating in Louis ville and all connecting lines, and all steamboat lines will reduce their rates, and will extend unusual privileges to persons desirous of visiting Louisville du ring the Exposition. The natural beauty of Lousvillo in September, the excellency and cheap ness of her hotels, and the long dearth of Binusemcnt in this part of the coun try, will prompt many to tako a trip in which they can combine both pleasure and profit. The Phrenological Journal and Life Illustrated for September, abounds in freshness aud spice of the best sorts. — Father, mother, son and daughter can each find something to please and in struct them in its well fHled pages. — We may note a few subjects :js worthy the attention of readers generally, viz: James Lick, the Benevolent Millionaire of California ; Oberlin College ; Reso lution and Appetite; Finance—a Clear Presentation of the Currency Question; Thomas A. Scott, the noted Railroad King, with a Portrait; In the Toils of Fashion—Good Counsel to Society La dies ; Ruined by Good Luck—Good Counsel to the Boys; The Venus Fly Trap; Curious Facts About a Curious Body ; Jeremy Bentham—What he Was and What he Did ; Telescopes in America, the Canadian Naturalist ; Hints oa Private Reading ; Agricultu ral Hints, etc. Altogether an admirable number.

A young man by the name of Green, from Atlanta, stopped at the Bartow House in our city last week. lie ate a heaity supper, went to his room and wrote several letters, one of which he had addressed to his brother in Macon. The next morning he did not appear at the breakfast table, and seemed to be late getting np. The land'ady sent to h : s room 'to ascertain the trouble, when he was found speechless, and in a state of stupor. The brother to whom the letter was addressed vtas immediately dispatched for and an answer obtained to call in the best medical aid and give him good attention, and it Was done The brother and father arrived next day in time to see him breathe his last His father was a physician and said the attack was heart disease. Mr. Osborn Williams, of our city died on Friday last rr.thet suddenly, only living about 24 hours from the time he was taken. He was about 40 years of age and leaves a wife and chil dren. May God protect them. A lady by the name of Ear wood, at Bartow Furnace, 5 miles from the city, was killed by lightning on Saturday last. She was standing in her door and a tree in the yard was struck, and she was instantly killed. Some of her chil dren were shocked also, but not serious ty- Do you suppose “ Kitty " would be pleased to see “ Joab ” as an ‘‘ agent ?” If so, prepare your “ label" and turn him out and let him please somebody.— Joab is very fond of “ beauty ” and as ii has been so well “suited" by the “ weather " it must be very luxuriant by this time. So send me to the “ show " —no, “ exhibition ” and what else ? Good graoious what a name ! T can’t spell it. So I will call it an “ ex hibition ” and a “ stretch-him-Jini ” and go on, so look out Kittie I am “ meeting folks " but I can go in and see the elephant and monkey. We have had fine rains and turnip seed are now in good demand. Warren Dobbs of our city, vent out to meeting in the country a few days ago, and has since been dubbed a Meth dist preacher on account of his dealing with chicken. J. H. Satterfield, of Chattanooga, is opening a family grocery in our city, he was formerly of this place and returns to his “first love." Joab. It is stated that Texas will produce this year between five and six hundred thousand bales of cotton. Grand Jury Presentments. We, the Grand Jurors sworn in for the second week of Gordon county Su perior Court, August term, 1874, make the following presentments: We have examined by our committee the remainder of the tax books left by former Grand Jury, and find that in some five or six instances, we think the property has not been given in at its full valuation. We call the attention of the Tax Receiver to this fact, and hope he will take steps to correct the error. We recommend that the vouchers for the year 1873, in the Treasurer’s office, where settlements have been made, be marked settled and returned to the Clerk’s office and filed away. We also recommend that the County Commissioners have the public roads properly posted and sign boards put up as the law directs. We further recommend tfrst a privy be burlt in some suitable place for the benefit of attendants of court. We have examined the furniture, &c., lately procured for the Court llou3e and find that the officers entrusted with the care of purchasing the same have exercised due economy. We still think the Clerk’s office is not fully supplied with a sufficiency of furniture. We fully concur with former Grand Jury in recommending that the School Commissioners of the county, collect from the State the amount due to our county for the year 1871 and pay off the claims of teachers for that year as speed.ly possible. We return our thanks to bis Honor John W r . 11. Underwood, and fully ap preciate the able manner in which he has discharged his duty as presiding Judge of this term. We also thank the Solicitor General A. T. Ilackett for his courtesies extend ed to this body. We recommend that these present ments be published in the Calhoun Times. Y. J. Malone, Foreman.

W. 11. Underwood, J. S. C. R. C- A true extract from the minutes of said court. J. M. Reeve, C. S C. Sensible Words. The New York Sun says: the people at the North m iy imagine that they aie not sufferers by the atrocious robberies which have been perpetrated upon the people of the reconstructed Sta tes by the human vultures who have represented the Administration there, receiving the support and encouragement of President Grant; but if they think so they are greatly mistaken, for one part of the United States cannot be brought to ru in by niisgovcrnment and excessive tax ation without the rest of the' country suffering theieby in many ways. There are many manufacturing cities and towns in the Northern States whose fu ture prosperity largely depends upon a restoration of the Southern trade which formerly gave employment to numerous mechanics and factory operatives but which has been greatly decreased or en tirely lost owing to the impoverished condition of the Sourthern people. Mill ions of dollars in Southern State bonds are held by Northern capitalists, whieh yield no income because the funds of these States have been stolen to enrich corrupt politicians. And the failure of such States to meet the interest on their bonds held in Europe is proving ruin ous to American credit abroad. The present scarcity of money throughout the country is owing, not to a lack of currency sufficient to meet legitimate de mands, but to the fact that the man agement of public affairs in Washing ton and iu most of the Southern States has been corrupt and inefficient, the great aim of those intrusted with the highest powers having apparently been to accumulate wealth for themselves, their relations and their personal friends, regardless of the interest of the people at large. In order to afford il legal gains to a comparative few persons, the whole country is exorbitantly taxed, and its best interests are mercilessly sacrificed. A Meteor Bursts Over Cairo. Cairo, 111 , August 15, 18T4. —A very large and remarkable meteor explo ded near this city about one o’clock this morning, causing a sensation from which our citizens have not recovered The explosion was terrific, shaking the earth and the houses thereon, and im pressing those who heard it with the be-- lief that a boiler had burst somewhere. Windows were thrown open and night cappcd heads thrust out. and passers by in the street below subjected to a searching cross-examination as to the cause of the disturbance. There were fortunately, many witnesses of the af fair, else the phenomenon would have re mained forever a mystery. At the hour mentioned, the meteor, as large as tlie moon and as brilliant as the sun, ap peared in the northern sky, moving to ward the horizon with lightning rapidi ty, followed by a stream of fire. When apparently near the earth it burst into fragments, which in turn hurst into smaller fragments, and tell like a myr iad cf stars. For the space of nearl} 7 half a minute the city was brilliantly il luminated. It was a glorious sight, the grandest ever witnessed in this section Cairo scientists are already searching for pieces ofthe meteor. — Chicago Inter- Ocean. Tiie following, from the Dos Moines (Iowa) Leader suggests a paralel that could be spun out of indefinitely. Twen ty years ago —when the country was on the eve of the Nebraska excitement and the Democratic party was so strong that General Sdrelds said “ our greatest danger is our strength ” —what a con trast between the country that day and to-day ! This-from the Leader : “"Who’s peen her since Ts peen gone !” The poor fellow to whom this pathet ic inquiry is attributed, says an old Democrat, could scarely have been more shocked than the Democrats are at tire changes wrought during their twenty years absence. Such a thing as direct taxation had never been heard of; now it is a virtuous day that reveals nothing of the sort. Our commerce was upon every sea, with a fair prospect of ex ceeding every nation of the world ; now it is limited to a small coasting trade Then we had a government of law, now of party neerssity We had men in ufhec ; we find block-heads, thieves and tricksters now. Verily, “ Who peen here we’ve been gone !" Horrible Indian Crime.— Oma ha, August 12, 1874.—A shocking murder accompanied by torture was perpetrated in a lonely spot in Colfax county, in this State, on- Sunday. A number of Indiana supposed to be Paw nees, camped near a homesteader’s cab in, and two squaws went out in search of food. They came to the house when the man was absent, and went through it, in spite of the wife’s remonstrances. Finally they attempted to take atvay the family provisions, to which the wife objected. The two squaws beat her over the head. Just then the husband came in, and seeing his wife wounded took his gun and shot one of the squaws. The other squaw ran to the Indian camp and reported what had been done. Twelve of the In ians then entered the h&use, captured the homesteader, skin ned him, cut his hands off and his heart out. This was done in the pres ence of his wife. A large party of pursuers has left West Point in search of the Indians, but it is almost certain that they will not find them.— World. The question for a belle and the foreman of a newspaper office ; How shall I make up my form ? The Failure of Popular Government, j The Cincinnati Gazette says that “no people in the world have so little re- 1 spect for their Government as the peo ple of the United States." Certainly no administration of that government \ ever deserved so little respect bet to ; the principles and tiie pure practices of a Democratic republican government, j from which wo have wandered far and long, the people will renew their devo- i tion in the coming fail elections. “ What prospects has a government for perpetuity which the people despise? How can the sentiment of patriotism exit>t without respect for the govern ment ? What is there to rally the peo ple against either external or internal danger, when they have no government which they think worth saving ? Is not general disgust with the govern ment the always ready opportunity for the coming man on horseback ?’’ “In the civil wai there was a great section in which our white enimies held those We called our black friends in subjection. The muddling of recon struction by State rights theories, An-, drew Johnson’s perfidy, the uprising of the Confederate leaders in the hope of regaining power, and the apparent ne cessity created by all this to give the emancipated blacks the means of self protection, bjfought the conferring of governing power on near a million of men of a race degraded in their native country, and degraded here by ages of slavery " “ Our politicians said they would know enough to vote for their own friends. Here was the party gain that is always uppermost in these s:jokes of State. They said also they were as ca pable of voting as a large class of the foreigners we had made voters. This was true enough, and it shows how one step of degradation furnishes the lever for another. No one thinks it worth while to stop at anything. In fact, no one thinks we have anything in ttic government worth preserving, save the chances of a party in it. At the last session the House passed a bill to erect New Mexico into a State, with a voice in the Senate to neutralize that of Ohio, Yet it has-uot 10,000 English-speaking inhabitants, and is a mixture of Mexi cans, Indians and negroes, with scarce ly any of the conditions of civilization. The House said the same with the wild Territory of Colorado. These are the doings of a people who have lost all re spect for their government. It is much worse in local government, for there the scalawag, the hummer, the adventurer, whose trade is to degrade, are preferred for public trusts to the best citizens. — Government in America is a thing of public contempt. The great republic, which has bragged over the whole world as being the best government the sun shines on, presents the strange specta cle of a government whose people have no respect for it." The fears of the Gazette are not justi fied because too many thousands of those who share its opinion will not be hindered by their past party relations, from voting to transfer the Government to the hands of better men and the gui dance of better principles, than those in which they now see their confidence have been misplaced.— World. Election Riot in Kentucky.— Louisville, Ky., August 5.—A Courier- Journal dispatch says that a fight oc cured at a small village in Clark county, Ky., on election.day, in which two white men were killed, two negroes mortally wounded, and fifteen negroes more or less wounded. The fight began at the polls. r i ft e Texas Legislature lias passed an act granting a pension of $l5O a year to the survivors of the revolution which separated Texas from Mexico, and $l5O more to such as are disabled by loss of sight or limb ; the pension to be paid only to such as have not sufficient prop erty for their support without the aid of the pension.
