Here are the votes of certain Counties Of Geor-
gia at her State Elections and the Presidential
resnectiYelY of last year
u Counties. .6,774 $3.50 6,977 6,755 81 $500

These returns, to any one familiar with
elections exhibit the means whereby Georgia
was made, in spite of herself, to give 1858 ma
iority for Seymour, when at least 10000 major
ty of her legal voters ardently desired Gen.
Grants election That majority were deprived
of their voice precisely as Ashburn, Adkins,
&c, were bereft of their lives. The Seymour
ratification speeches of Howell Cobb, Toombs,
and Ben. Hill (Which we fully reported at that
time,) show exactly the spirit in which the Rebel
Chivalry went into the canvass, determined
that they would conquer or their adversaries
must die. There were Counties in which they
were not strong enough to drive the Re-
publicans from the polls or compel them
to vote for Seymour; hence Gen. Grant
had more votes in Baldwin, Bibb, Bryan,
Campbell, Clarke, Clay, Cobb, Dawson, Deca-
tur, Fannin, Fulton, Gilmer, Glynn, Lee, Lump
kin, Mcintosh, Pickens, Pierce, Quitman, Rich
mond, Spaulding, Terrill, Thomas TOwnes,
Epson, Webster, and Wilcox than Gov. Bullock
received at the preceding State Election. when
he was elected by 7047 majority. In as many
more Counties, the Republican vote was nearly
the same at the Presidential as at the State
Election proving that neither the numbers nor
the zeal of the party had fallen Off but III
Just about half the State, and mainly in Coun-
ties which were heavily Democratic any how,
the Republicans were compelled to vote for
Seymour or not allowed to vote at all.
We submit these facts of record as illustra-
tive of the spirit that impelled the political
murders to which we except. What does THE
Times think of themP What does it under

Isolated for Louisiana was also carried for
Seymour at the point of the Bowie-knife, as
we think Mississippi was made to reject her

of the voters of Alabama deferred from voting
to approve hers 1t is the spirit of a party
that which The Times calls "the South y

distrust of Conservative" loyalty and Con
"servatve" reconstruction for which Congress
has been widely blamed by those who conceal
the facts. Should they not be made knownf
