The St. Paul Dispatch writes clabora
tcly and bitterly Of its party. 1t shows
that the war land slavery questions made
and sustained it and then proceeds:
To suppose that objectional men can re-
main In power by means of party dsci-
pine, with nothing to bind the party
together, is to presume upon accomplish
ing impossibilities. What shape the new
party organization will take, it is not now
so easy to determine, but the day is not
distant, both in Minnesota and elsewht r.,
when men will learn the power of public
opinion, untrammeled by the party letters
OF old. They will learn that frauds and
corruptions which were overlooked and
submitted to as necessary evils when it
was absolutely necessary to remain united
to accomplish high and noble purpose
VIII no longer DO tolerated. They will
LEARN by ultimate disaster that the people
are not mere slaves who, time without end,
will swallow nauseating pills which politi-
cal chlcanery may present to them. Blind

on their strength, naughty with pride,

svhich will sooner or later oyertake them.
The people will say to the political Sod,

GILLAsrY, the democratic candidate for
Governor of Iowa. We invite careful
reading of it. 1t is safe to say that the

is the leader. If our countrymen would
stop long enough to contrast the plainncss,
the fairness, the honesty of purpose which
marks this speech with the toadyism to UNI

the tariff swindle, the coarse ribaldry, the

GEORGIA.

Notwithstanding his own statement
last winter, that Georgia was a sOver-
eign State, fully reconstructed, and
therefore not to be interfered with in
| the administration of her internal af-
fairs, we learn from the Atlanta Intel
6geRcer that Gen. GRANT has given
his consent to the employment of
troops for the coercion of the people
of that State, and has already sent
one or more officers down to the scene
of the murder of ADKINS, who it is
now well understood was killed by a
negro Radical and political disciple of
his victim. If this be true, and we
have no reason to doubt it, it will re-
fleet more disgracefully upon GRANTS
administration, as a bald usurpation,
than anything yet laid to its charge.
There is no shadow of excuse for such
a movement. Georgia sets an exam
pie of peace and prosperity that is the
envy of her sisters of the South, and
that might with profit be emulated by
many of those of the North and
Northwest. Her industries are many,
and all equal to the best thsaSYorld
can elsewhere afford; and her people
are noted, not alone fOran unsurpassed
energy, but for their love of peace and
devotion to law. In the cases of every
one of the unfortunate murders of
leading Radicals that have drawn
upon her the maledietiOns and enmity
Ofthat fraternity elsewhere in the I'm
ion, Georgia has manifested a common
dable activity in pursuit of the muir
derers, and q stern intent TO punish to
the extent of the law. She needs no
soldiers TO teach her people how to
enforce law or to cOerce them to its
obedience. In every emergency they
have proven themselves equal to both
duties, prompted thereto by the teach
ings of generations of great men whose
names are among the most brilliantin
the national record. There is no nee
essity, then, for the presence of the
military in Georgia, and it cannot but
be regarded as a disgracefuI weaken
ing of the GRANT administration be-
fore Radical clamor and falsehood. 1t
is no stain upon Georgia or Georgians,
this last persecution; only another
cross tobear, and to be borne, we hope,

people conscious of their rectitude,
their honor, and of their historic re-

THE FRANCHlSEDECISION


AT an hour too late to effect any
thing byit for the people of the State,
the Judges of the Supreme Court pro-
mulgated an opinion in the case fthe
State VS.. STATEN, unfavorable to the
validity of the franchise law of May 5,
1866, and all subsequent acts of the
Legislator amendatory or ~auxiliatory
thereto. Eversince Thursday week the
Court had this case under advisement,
but neither the anxieties of the people
nor the important results likely to fol-
low to members of the Court them
selves, had any weight in the eonclu-
sion reached. The Judges were in no
hurry if the world was. They took
their time, and only gave the result
of a weeks cOgitatiOn when the tele-
graph wires were burdened with the
news of a contest they had it in their
power to have definitely determined
in favor of the white people of the
State days ago. OF course, Judges

THE ELECTION.

So far as We can learn from the re-
turns, the Democratic party of Shelby
county have not Jared so roughly at
the hands of the Radicals as was at
first believed possible. We have
elected PERKINS to the Law bench,
WALLACE to the Criminal bench,
FoUTEt to the Municipal bench, STAHL
Attorney General of the Criminal
Court, and RYAN Prosecuting Attor-
ney of the Municipal Court. This is
not quite all we expected, but it is a
great deal considering the odds we
fought, not alone in the ranks of the
Radical, but u own party. Had
every man who calls himself a Demo-
crat, or who claims to be in opposition
to Radicalism, but acted up to his pre-
tensions, we would have made a clean
sweep and elected every man upon
the ticket by an overwhelming ma
jority, in spite of the chicanery
of our opponents, with, as is
stated, a Registrar working into
their hands. As we have shown
elsewhere, it is not TO what the Radi-
Gals have been able to do-by false
registration papers, stuffed ballot
boxes, and other such tricks-that we
owe u want of entire success, but to
what tbn Democrats have NOT done
that was within their power to ac-
complish. As TO the charges al
legged against the Registrar, we hope
they will be subject of immediate in
vestigation, and that nOexpense Or eff
fort will be spared to bring to merited
punishment all in any way connected
with the frauds to which the Radicals
owe their partial success.
