IMPEACHMENT.-This ridiculous farce
headed by Spoon Butler who voted for
ty times in the Charleston Convention
for Davis to be the Democratic nomi-
nee, is dragging on to the disgust of all
decent people, Whether johnson be
impeached or not for adhering to the
Constitution which he swore to defend
and support, and outside of which the
bloody Jacobins profess to be acting,
n thing is certain beyond cavil, and
that is, that Liberty is gone, Republi.
canism a failure, and the poor, down
trodden, heavily. taxed masses of the
White race seem in q trance Of GRIMM
al patience, without any defined pros
pect in view. This very moment our
country, manipulated by u few desper.
ate Tyrants and Usurpers, in the sole
interest of Party, is the mock and jest
of the civilized world. How long, oh
Lord. before the People, ifnot yet will
ing to be slaves forever will say to the
Tyrants and Office Seekers: Thou hast
sportcd, eaten, murdered, outraged,

COUNTY JUDGE ELECTION.
The Magistrates Of u County
Maintain Law and Justice,
They Vote Unanimously Against
Impertincnt and Illegal
OMice-Seeking.

We copy from the records as follows:--
This day Silas Scarls appeared in open
Court and presented n commission from
the Governor of the State, and his oath OF
Office as County Judge for Franklin coun-
ty, and proposed to enter upon the dis
charge of the duties Of that Office as prcsl-
ding officer Of this Court: Whercupon,
John Frizzcll, p. Turney, AS. Marks, Jesse
Arlcgc, j. b. Fitzpatrick, Michael Tipps,
j. G. McCutchcOn, and w. j. Slater, APP
pcarcd in open Court and protested against
and asked permission of the Court to resist
the application Of said Searls, which the
Court permitted them to do.
Whcrcupon, upon consideration Of the
whole case, and because it was made sat
isfactorily to appear to the Court, that at
the pretended election for County Judge,
under which said Scarls claims to have
been elected, the polls were not opened in
ten of the sixteen voting places in said
county-that the polls were opened at
Dccherd, IN taid county, without autllori-
ty oflaW, aud that frauds and other irrcg-
ularitics and inforInalitics occurred in said
pretended election: and the same was, in
consequence thereof, absolutely void, and
therefore conferred no power whatcycru up
on the said Scarf. The Court orders and
adjudgcs that the application ofsaid Scarls
Ia, mad tIn rn,,n p,ttt..I and thl
Chairman and Clerk of this Court are or
dcrcd not to deliver possession of any
record, book, or paper, pertaining to THEN
respective offices, to the said Scarls. or to
any one for him, nor to permit the said
Scarls to take control or management in
any way, ofany OF said records, books or
papers; and the said Scarls is ordered not
TO interfere in any way, or undertake to
control in any way, any Of said records,
books, 81 papers.
The foregoing order was made by the
following vote, to-wit:
In the Observation-Disclosures Williams,
Finch, Pryor, Best, We ldington, Cobblc,
Bowling, MOscly, Mathcr. Travis, Davis.
Armstrong, Edwards, Chitwood, Long,
Nugent, Sargent. Skidmore, Prince, AXE,
Sells, Overly, Simpson, and McCrabtrcc.
1t Is proper for us to state the fact that
six or more Of the above named Magis-
tratcs are Radicals, and several Of them
members ofthc Loyal League The unan-
imous vote must be evidence Of the utter
illcgality, il not impcrtincncc, Of this i'm
ported hummer (Scarls,) in seeking to OBJ
tain possession of an office to which he
can never be elected by a majority of the
negroes, much less the whites, OF our
county.

"Decent" Radicals.

The Memphis avalanche says: 1--WE
sometimes hear men speak Of "decent''
Radicals This is a misapplication Of
terms. There can be no such thing as
q "decent" Radical, II is utterly i'm
possible for a Radical to be "decent."
He may be clearly in person, pleasant
in bis address, and "most promising in
speech )" but this is not "decency" in
the sense understood. The serpent is
"decent" in its outward appearance and
general habits. But its breath is pois-
onous, and its venom kills. TO be "de'
cent" a man must belieye that, in a gov
eminent like ours, it is ap outrage to
deprive his fellow men Of his own race
and color, of the rights and privileges
conferred upon the brutal negro. TO
be ."deceht' a man must believe that it
is always sale and wise and more just
to lodge power in the hands ofthe ed
ucated, honest masses who own the
wealth of the land, than with the ignor-
ant, uneducated, brutal negroes who
own nothing, and whose whole ambi-
ton is to subsist by private or public
plumber. TO be "decent" q man must
have some respect for the opinions OF
the better classes surrounding him F.;
and must have enough %sclf-respect and
pride of character to covet the society,
the approval and the votes of white
men, rather than of negroes. TO be
decent, a man must have some social
standing other han that among the ne
groes and the carpet bag-ofice seekers
now infesting the South with their lep-
rous presence. No, no! There is no
such thing in all the South, at least, as
decent Radicals.

Burns says, for the glorious privilege

exchange for honor, for nobleness, and
for Deity offended. TO gather gold by

A Soldiers Paradise.

The old racc-track on the outskirts
Of Atlanta, Georgia, comprising fifty
acres, is now occupied by the barracks
of the United States soldicry. 1t is
beautifully fenced in by the best OF
planks, put together by the best of
workmen. Inside are the barracks,
now being completed, and designed to
hold 1000 men. There are to be fifty
houses, or one $4,000 edifice to every
twenty followers of Mars. On one side
of the enclosure extends a row Of ten
long handsomely finished houses, to
each of which is assigned one compa
ny. These are nicely arranged %lnteTi-
ally, even the %Sergeants having private
apartments therein, when men and wo-
men are starving in this country, and
liberty is slain in the house of her
friends.
Leaving the company quarters you
find that the entire house is surrounded
by a piazza, s%urmounted by a canopy
of wood work, on which vines are to
clamor and roses arc to bloom. Cost
ly young trees are planted out all
around the grounds. The line officers
have each two-story mansion, and
the staff officers are also accommoda-
ted with fine houses. The hospital
folk, the commissary, the surgeon, the
auartermaster-all have buildings ap-
proximate in show and value; and the
guardhouse costs $1,000. The money
already spent on this soldiers paradise
amounts to half a million Of dollars 4;
probably as much more will be expen-
dcd. This looks as if the Radicals had
souatted here with the intention Of re
naming for life. If the military oc,u.
patton of the South were designed to
be merely temporary, why put up such
costly towns as this at Atlanta and
And we are paying for all

Capt. O'Neal should or would suffer there
by. Those of our readers whe are unac-

to his character: "
