Robt. Toomb's the Georgia Sena-
tor, who promised to call tho roll of
his elaves at. the foot Of Bunker Hill
Monument, has written a letter to
one William NJ. Cory pestilential
copperhead demagogue, and the edi-
tor of the South and West, Demo
cratic pro-slavery and pro-rebel COM
Germ published in the interests Of the
lost cause at Cincinnati Ohio, in
which he endeavors to keep alive the
1 'ln'ueis s'r r. ,t'';nn and announces
his faith in tho final triumph of tho
cause they. went I'd war for. We
have not room for the letter in full
but give the following extracts show
ing his venomons unIepentant feel
ings, and these are the sort of men
who are 80 wrongfully DISTINGUISHED
by the reconstruction acts: !
sl!After the reception OF yours Of
the 9th inst, with the proceedings Of
tho Cincinnati Convention, ! accept
with the greatest pleasure the posi-
ton to which I have been assigned,
and will cheerfully give my utmost
eff9rts to promote, establish and vi
tallke those principles. I have stood
by them from my youth to this hour.
I have maintained thcm in peace and
in war, in power and out OF power,
in prosperity and adversely; and I
am as ready today, as was thirty
years ago, when Ientered public life,
as 4 nnllifer, ssto spend and to be
spent" in the sacred cause; and if my
sacrifices Of all sorts had been a
thousand times more than they have
been, ] should consider them well
spent "for ,ost cause" rather than
accept any other Interpretation Of
the American Constitution
q will take immediate measures
to organize the State Of Georgia on
that basis, and will urge the true men
of the ESQ called ten rebel States to
"falf into fne." You can fully count
on them-I have tried them.
e regret nothing in the past but
the dead and the failure, and l am
to-day ready to use the best means I
can command to establish the princi-
pies for which / fouhht." ~.

Let the approaching County Con.

holding elections, which shall be held
say on some Saturday, afternoon, tho

open an election and receive none but
the votes Of Republicans legally quail

the result and lforwa ard it to the Cen
