LABOR SPENT IN VAIN.-Those two great champions
of Bell and Everett in Georgia, the Chronicle Sent
mel and Savannah Republican, are shouting and rant
ing, and making themselves perfectly ridiculous in tbr
vain endeavors to rally their broken cohorts The idea
of electing Bell and Everett has been joke or hr
bug, from the beginning of the contest They neg
had the least possible chance of getting single eecG
vote in any of the free soil States, without the epd
the Democracy. Nor have they at any time had ia
Sonabte prospect of getting the vote of single Southern
State, without help from the Democracy. These are
facts which we'll informed men everywhere know, and
which candid men everywhere admit. Reasonable and
sensible men know, that John Bell to-day, stands %
more chance of being elected President Of the United
States at this time, than he does of being elected En-
peror of China. 1t is barely possible, but not in the least
probable that he may get the vote of one two South
ern States and if he should it will not make bis election
to the Presidency a supposabe contingency. Andyt
with all these facts before Them which they are CON-
PEELED to if they will only open heir EYES these two
Editors continually ranting, and raving aud
ing, and calling upon the men, women and chiIdraD
arm themselves, to rally and fight for the Union and
John Bell. Hear what he of the Savannah Republican
on the 10th inst. said :
ave say, then, to the Union men of Georgia dth
South Grid on your armor plunge into the midst Of
the battle, and never the fight until the cOSngd
the polls in November. Did such spirit animate Us
Georgia would be placed side by side with Maryland
Virginia and Kentucky at the close of the struggle
That must be very queer kind of Union thatlt
qures so much fighting to preserve it. The Editor
the Republican is very much like the Irish gentleman
writing to friend in this country be said he ua g
ing continually to keep peace and whilst be wiring
he held sword in one hand and pistol in the other
In one thing in all probability, the writer will graft
fed: Georgia will probably vote with Maryland, VIZ
ginia and Kentucky, but not for John Bell. Hear also
what the Editor of the Chronicle & Sentinel says I
Bell man with Douglas principles. Here it Isl
"But, under all circumstances, it is the imperative
duty of the Bell men of Georgia to work, and WORK
without ceasng, till the polls close. If we cannotcaHy
the Union, nor the State, we have counties aud cities
be worked for and for no cause should we relax our Ell
ergies. On the contrary, let US work harder than We
ever worked before. Old men, signalize the last act
your long lives by the best you ever did Young men,
it is all important to start right, and that to 60 ~
your whole country and Bell and Everett. Aud 'ns
women, and mothers and sisters and daughters are t|u
more interested in the Union than the men. NDtl
revolution comes it will be especially dark day ior al
of you. Then send your husbands and fathers anu .l
brothers and sweethears forth into the thicke8t |
| fight. ..
Now is it not distressing case when this LdIu
calls upon old the verge of the grave and yq5
men and old women and girls all to help elect JOl4
Bell, and if they can't do that, TO try aud elect S9
the city and county officers, that the Chronicle aa
Sentinel can get the advertising. That IS what "
