Democrats have been waiting with some
degree of anxiety to see or hear radical
reioicings over the election Of United States
Senators in Georgia. Georgia is ''recon-
structed.' Georgia is ''loyal.' Georgia
has adopted the l4th amendment to the
constitution.
Why is it that the legislature Of that
State has chosen men who are not 'engag-
ed in the interests of God and humanity
to represent the State in the United States
Senate? Why has the legislature Of Geor-
gia pctitioned Congress to remove political
d:sabilities-imposed by the 18th amend
ment-from all classe. of people in the
State.
As matters now stand, the prospects are
that the reconstruction infamy will add
much of tho negro to the democratic vote
in the south. The blacks are rapidly be-
coming disgusted with the carpet-bag
demagogues who have led them for two or
three years in tho excluded states. They
are going back to their old masters. The
force-of public opinion has compelled the
Georgia legislature to choose Democratic
Senators, although that legislature, when
elected, had majority Of carpet baggers.
Elect Seymour and Blair and Q Demo.
cratic House of Representatives, and every
carpet-bag United States Senator will

A SPECIMEN CAsE.-ln his speech at
Indianapolis on Tuesday, Senator Hem
bricks related the following incident illus
trating the policy of paying the bond
holders as urged by the radicals:
It is said that it is unjust to pay these
bonds otherwise than in coin. | am not
able to preceive that it is SO. The bonds
were bought from the government when
the treasury notes were much more depre-
ciated than now. Undoubtedly there
were hard cases under tl,c legal tender
net. recollect one case, that appeared so
to me. l may not be accurate in the
amounts, but nearly so. One citizen hav-
ing held $4,000 during the first year of
the war. and before the rise in gold. or
rather the fall in paper, loaned it to his
neighbor at 7 per cent that neighbor. was
able to pay the interest and hold the gold.
lie did so until after the passage of
the legal tender law, and until
gold went up to two fifty. He then sold
the gold for s25, 900 in legal tender notes.
With $40 .OOO in notes he paid the note
given for the gold, anu with the remaining
$4,000 bought fifteen of the 500 bonds at
81, 900 each, upon which he has since re-
ceived his interest in gold every six
lnOHtuS. Iitl DcSdH0 VI IAC SChllCAAobt
who was compelled to take paper worth
about $4,000, cannot tell perhaps ne
became quartcrmaster, or sought some
other eminent position, hoping to retrieve
his fortune but have been entirely uns
able to excite throbbing sympathy for
the gentleman who holds the $4,000 in
bonds. cannot say that financially, he
has done badly, and in the little question
between him and the tax payers cannot
90 with Gov. Morton and his followers,
and hold that We shall 90 beyond the Coz
tract and pay his bonds in gold. This
large class of bonds being payable in 20
years, in treasury notes, they are cow,
many of them, redeemable in the same.
Then we may at once commence the pay
ment Of our debt, by the issue Of treasury
notes, and thus stop the payment of gold
interest, and also increase our currency,
and thus stimulate commerce, enterprise,
and in connection with o wise policy
toward the southern states, and the devel-
opment of their resources, restore prosper
ity to the whole country.
