Politics In Ge0rgia-ShalI n Muck be Run
Against The Radicals by IneliRiblese
The Georgia press does not seem to be united
upon the subject of adopting Judge stephens re-
commendation, to w.t. that neliCibles be sent to
Washington, and there bang away at the doors OF
Congress until they are admitted, or, what is more
likely are obliged to retire without obtaining seats.
The Rome (Ga.) Courier has some sensible remarks
on this subject a few OF which we quote. The ap-
pltcatiOn can be made elsewhere than In Georgia.
Referring TO Judge Stephens letter 1t says
We differ from his opinion that IL would be better
ior us 10 remain for ever unreprcsented than that
we should be misrepresented by men who can take
the oath or can get relieved from lt. The State
OF Kentucky is represented by men who have been
relieved from the operations OF that oath, and we
have no better friends than can be found In that
delegation. Hon. Peter M. Dox, OF Alabama, has
been admitted under the provisions Of the law ana
he makes true and tried representative-so true
Or the Filth Alabama district has renomnated
him. The young Georgian, Mr.. Connor, now OF the
rising State OF Texas, was admitted and is now
DONG great service to his native South by boarding
the radical lion In his den. And so, too can It be
with our State. There are men eligibe-men who
can even take the test Oath--who would make faith
lui true and able representatives. Let US send
them, and II the laundering can be done at all it
can be done al home without the risk OF je0pardiz
ing the best interests OF our people. We want men
in Congress- moi men knocking at the door and
lobbying around ike unbidden guests at feast.
We fear that 1t YVES unfortunate for the democratic
party mat Mr.. Stephens was selected as its exccu-
tive chairman, certainly 1t is unfortunate that he
should have written his letter.

Politics in Tcnncssec-The Tennessee Second
District-HOrnce Mnynard's Opponent.
The Democratic Convention in Knoxville ON the
10th instant nominated Colonel A. Blizzard as their
candidate for Congress from the Tennessee Second
district, now represented by Horace Maynard. The
Knoxville Chronicle (rep) states that Colonel Biz.
Zard in accepting the nomn alton had the bad taste
to declare that 1t time their district was repre-
scented In Congress by native Tennesseean. The
Chr0ncte adds:-"lt seems to US this Is carrying
the carpet-bag question pretty far. Mr.. Maynard
has lived In Knoxville for nearly forty years. and
tnlnk should by this time nave Outlived such con-
temptabe preJudices.r Colonel Blizzard was Union
man at the commencement OF the war. Since then
he has been u rather bizarre copperhead.
