Hon. James L. Seward Of Georgia

Hon. James Ia. Seward OF Georgia
made an able and timely speech at
recently, from which we take
the following extracts:
II was in the Charleston Conven-
ton when the late revolution was in
| opposed secession then,
and was denounced for it. What Is
the result? To-day we are the poor
est people in the world. If Generals
Toombs and Cobb made so sad mis-
take then. I warn you not to follow
them now. You followed them through
four years Of bloody war, which has
left the country filled with widows
and orphans, deprived of means Of
support, and our people conquered
and oppressed race. But | forgive
them, and will not say that they were
not patriotic; but they made a mis-
take. While at Washington in 1861
they were continually sending tele-
graphic dispatches advising Georgia
to Secede. don't charge them with
crime, but l do say they made a sad
mistake then, and are unsafe leaders
now .
"The reconstruction acts of Con-
gress were not the first terms submit
ted to the people Of the South. We
rejected the first and more liberal
terms submitted to us. thus still show,
ing a spirit of opposition to the Gov.
eminent. The reason why these re
construction laws We're imposed upon
US was that the Northern people be,
lieved the Southern leaders were op
posed to reconstruction. All Of this
has been the result of the teachings
Of such men as Toombs, Cobb and
Ben Hill"
"But the Democracy think If Sey
mour is elected these reconstruction
measures will be set aside. Well
let US see. Suppose they elect Sey.
mour, together with a majority in the
House Of Representatives; they can't
change the Senate for four years tc
come. Then what will they do? viii
they inaugurate a revolution, witt
Seymour at the head, and take pos
session of the Government and turn
the Senate out? If so, why has moi
Andy Johnson, as COMMANDMENT
Chief of the army and navy, done
this heretofore? | tell you the PEG
Iple Of the North will stand by the
| Government, and no matter what they
tell you about fighting for your rights
in opposition to the Government, they
will not do it when the test comes
We were deceived by that cry il

GRANT NO SOLDIER. - One Of the
speakers at the last Democratic meet
ing in New York said IF be had time
he would show that Grant was not !
great soldier" We wonder why tile
meeting did not vote on the spot TO
giUe him the time. 1t is evidently
one Of the great objects OF the Dom
ocratic press in this poliJica. cam
paign to undermine Gen. Grant ; mi
litary reputation, and speaker who
only wanted little time to take this
work off from its hands ought to have
been allowed to show what he could
do, to say the least. In default Of
this, however, the party organs are
toiling away in their vain effort to
show that Grant took Richmond, cap
tured Lee and crushed the rebellion
only after a needless sacrifice Of life.
AS a matter Of opinion, that is well
enough, where the motive is good /;
but as a matter of fact, the country
knows this: Five communicable
Clellan, Pope, Burnside, Hooker and
Meade-undertook to do just what
Grant afterward achieved, but did not
succeed. Their losses were IA, lis ;
of which 1915 were killed, 80,666
wounded, and 44,160 missing. From
the time Grant took command in Nir-
ginia till the close Of the war, the
losses sustained by his forces were
in the aggregate 100, sol. Of which
1861 were killed, 66'452 wounded,
and 26,988 missing.
1t will be seen, therefore. that
Grants losses, while hewing his way
to final victory and the complete over
throw OF the rebellion, were not near
so heavy as those incurred by the tail
ures of his predecessors. Now 1t is
easy to say that he ought to have ac-
complished the same work at less
sacrifce-and there were always
Democratic editors who thought that
they could teach Grant the rudiments
of military skill-but what the mass
of considerable people have to look al
in matter of this kind, is the lesson
of experience. They see that Grant
succeeded where everybody else had
failed; that his success actually cost
the country less than the others fail
ure; and that his reputation and the
gratitude of the country are not tc
be affected, at this late day, by serb
blers whose military Judgment is as
worthless as their partisan motive;
are low and reckless,

LIFE COR DEATH1-N TEXAs.-A
Committee Of the Texas Convention
has made a report on the murders
committed in thac state since 1865,
which shows that life is very precari-
Gus and death very certain there
Texas had in 1860 a population of
100000. II has now perhaps 100000
considerably less than the popula-
tion of New Yar. aitr The rennrt
asserts that in this population 936
murders were committed between Jan
uary, 1865, aud June, 1868. This is
an average of BIB murders per an
mum, No account is made Of the as
sauIts with intent to kill, which are
of hourly occurrence. Of the 93S
murdered persons 400 whites and
373 freedmen were killed bY whites,
10 whites and As freedmen were kill
cd by blacks, and in As cases the muir
derer was unknown. Ia 1865, 1866,
and 1861, PSI indictments for murder
were found in the district court Of the
State; but there were only five con
yiction5; and, since the cessation Of
the war, for 93S murders only one
man has been cxecuted-and he was
a freedman. In-5ome cases the courts,
| it is reported, will not take notice Of
offences against Union men; in 9th
ers the jury though properly charged
by the court, refused to convict A
former rebel officer killed a boy of
fourteen years; the crime was proved
upon him, but the jury acquitted him
on the singular ground that he had
lost an arm in the Confederate service.

= The necessity of a due proportion OF iron in
the blood is well known to all medical men
when it becomes reduced from any cause what
ever, the whole system suffers, the weakest part
being first attacked. and feeling of lauguor,
lassitude and "all goneness pervades the sys-
TEN. StimuIants only afford temporary relief,
and have the same effect as giving a tired horse
the whip instead OF oats. The true remedy is to
supply the blood with the necessary quantity of
iron. This can be done by using the
PERUVIAN SYRUP,
protected solution of the protoxlde of iron,
which is so prepared that it assimilates at once
with the blood, giving strength, vigor and new
life to the whole system.
To take medicine to cure diseases occasioned
by deficiency of IRON IN THE BLOOD,
without restoring it to the system, is like trying
to repair a building when the foundation is gone.
