The DEBORAH Republican says the
soldiers reunion has Ieen postponed
from the frst Ct June to the last day
Of August and the first of Sept.
This we suppose is to give the
solaiersa chance to hear some repub-
lisan speeches at the tiae, adyocat-
ing the republican State ticket.
Coming at that time it may induce
Nat. Baker aud Henry O'Connor,
'for the good Of the cause" to ad-
vance a few thousand dollars worth
Of free whiekey, ''for soldiers votes"
and for the big steal they will have

Signs of Progress.


The prompt action Of the House OF
Representatives in the United States
Congress, in summarily summoning to
its bar for trial, its corrupt members
speaks bright hopes, that honesty is not
entirely tramplod in the dust of oblivion
We hope that Whittemore's party
viii promptly repudiate this its exposed.
" corrupt member. Never mind how
good q Republican ho may be, however
far he may 90 IN promises and in aaso-
ciating cheek by jowl, hob and mob, with
the colored people, let them not barbor
one whom the world knows to be totally
unworthy Of the association of honest
men. Let the promptings of an honest
heart, be heard and let the voters of his
congressional district repudiate him, and
hoot him from their midst.
Another sign of promise s the defeat
of Buffers Georgia Bill, which would 60
to show that crushed as is our sister
State "the Poland of America" as she
has been called, there is term to her
"durancc" and her humiliation. The de-
feat ofthis bill and the adoption of Bing-
hams amendment, will discontinue the
terms Of Office OF Bullock and the Legis-
lature of that State, and give the people
the liberty and right Of ballot in 1870.
