The tret will be a gallop soon,
In spite Of curb or rein.

The Radicals boast of having freed
four millions of negroes, but they are
dumb as an oyster, or General GRANT
upon the fact that they have enslaved
twenty-five millions of white men by so
doing. Debt and taxation are as hard
taskmasters as even those pictured by
Mrs. STOWE in her mythical romance,
"Uncle Tom" This question was well
presented by Mr.. CARY, member of Con.
gress from Ohio, in recent speech. He
said: al live at College Hill, near Gin
cinuati. Before the war, there was a
man living there worth $500, which he
had invested in an omnibus and horses.
When tho war broke out he hired man
to drive his ibus, and went into the
war. He came back, and is now run
ming his bus again. That fellow has to
pay two and q balfp per cent. of his earn
ings every month to pay the tax-gather-
er-to pay in two and q halt per cent,
of all his receipts. 1 found, by looking
at the assessors books that he paid
sl1S.49 government tax last year. :
Everything the poor man
wears and eats is taxed. Why, your
wife's uight-cap is taxed, and the cup
of ceffee you drank this morning, one
cent and half of its cost was govern
hA
the taxes. I have o house that rent,
and l have some tenants. They put it
pretty heavy upon me; but every ten
dollars they put upon me i sock upon
my tenants" These ara facts that pro-
ducers must face. If GRANT is elected,
taxes will be increased.

Ridiculous.

Our neighbOrs on Quincy street are
remarkably successful of late in making
themselves ridiculous. Their Daily of
yesterday contains three column
double-leaded editorial, the object of
which is to persuade their readers that,
II the Democratic party succeeds in the
ensuing elections, they (the Democratic
party will rebel. If they succeed, who
will they rebel againsti Themselves
If SEYMOUR and, BLAIR should be elect
ed, will the Dsssoo cratic party get up a
rebellion to keep them out of Office, or
turn them out after they are inf Yet
our peighbors gravely assure their read
ers, that, in that unhappy event, no
power Oh earth can save this land from
being involved in the calamities of a
civil war. 1t is, (they say,) the logical
and inevitable consequence ofa triumph
by the rebel party, now falsely calling
Itself Democratic" Now we assure our
Verdant cotemporary that if the Demo
cratic party succeed, as succeed they rill,
In the elections, they will not be dis
posed to rebel against themselves; and
should our neighbors and his set, sin

on their own hook, President SEYMOUR
can be relied upon for proper energy
and vigor in its suppression.

IFrOn the Macon Journal, August p.
The Negroes in Georgia Preparing
for n Conflict

But few of our people seem to be
aware Of the extent of the preparations
made, and the amount of drilling night
ly going on by the negro population,
for conflict with the white race. In
this city, as we'll as in every county,
they seem to have regular places of rem
dezvsus, where they meet and go
through with company and battalion
drill. The organizations would appear
TO comprise COlonels, Majors, Captains,
Lieutenants and priyates, all regularly
armed. They say they regularly act
under orders from higher authority,
many stating that the orders issue from
Atlanta, and from Governor Bullock.
They appear to have plenty of arms
and ammunition, and a universal opin-
ion prevails among them that they
may be called upon to commence the
slaughter of the white race any day or
any hour.
The feeling of insecurity arising from
these known facts getting abroad in our
State is really painful. The Radical
leaders are iucessantly urging the ne
gro population to form these organiza-
tions, and are instilhng into their rmiDds
the most diabolical notions. Some Of
the wisest and best informed men in
this community regard a conflict Of
races sooner or later rs inevitable, which
will result IN the determination of the
black race. The white men have made
no openly aud universal
ly deprecate the diabolical spirit which
stroliing Northern vagabOnds have
taught the negro. This is con-
strued by them into intimida-
ton, but if they suppose the
white people of the South are not
courageous and will not fght-will not
fight such a puny force as they may be
able to muster-they have only to read
the history of the late war TO quickly
change that notion. And these lead
ers-these real authors Of the woes now
Threatened TO be Precipitated upon our
conntry-will be the first to 90 down
under the storm which they have raised.
In their public speeches and pnblica-
tions appear the most inflAmmatory ap-
peals to the negro to arm, drill and pre-
pare for civil war. They utter no word
of Cancellation or Of peace, but every

THE editor of the Hntelligencer, in yes
terday issue, distinctly threatens "war,
more bitter and bloody and widespread
than that from which we have so re-
Gently emerged,"-(these are his exact
wordS)-if the people see fit to select
SEYMOUR for President. Mildly, but
firmly, we tell this scribbler and his
party that the people who make the
President will also make those who
talk of not submitting behave them
selves. These threats of rebellion are
very silly, and will scarcely alarm the
Oldest woman of their party.

If Radical rule continues, the people
may keep on paying five hundred mil
lions annually into the treasury, and, at
the end of twenty years, they will find
the public debt increased, though in
that time there will have been eXacted
from them ten thousand millions of
dollars. 1t comes to this: the rapacious
Radicals must be choked from the

THE Government has in the last year
paid clerks SS36,45 for dealing out
food furnished by the Government for
idle negroes. At the same time hun
dreds of white workingmen and their
families suffered for the common neces-

by Government agents. Bread, meat,
clothing were not provided for them.

TIE INAUGURATION OF THE GERMAN
TURNER HALL.-Yesterday the German
Turner's had grand festival. They
celebrated the Inauguration of their
new hall on Market street, above the
market house. The hall is splendidly
fitted up, has very nice and large
stage, and affords ample room for more
than 1000 spectators. The basement
contains the bar and dining rooms and
the room for gymnastic exercises.
The festival commenced with a nice
little procession in the afternoon. In
the evening there was beautiful con-
cert, which was preceded by very
able address, given by one of the mem.
bers of the Turner'S. The gymnastic
exercises, which were produced by the
turner's, were excellent, and the whole
affair gives much credit to the assooia,
tion' This afternoon and evening g
grand fair will be arranged by the la.
aiss, and tomorrow a grand ball will
be given in the hall.
