MahOne's Last ManeuYer.

Malone, with poison and hatred
ranking in his heart toward the no
ble people of Virginia, has issued an
address, which for vituperation and
straight out lying, is rarely excelled.
He would blacken, by his foul SLAM
derS, tie character Of men who are as
far above him, as far his superiors
as are the angels above the wicked
of earth. 1t is wonder that this
foul fusilade of lies did not blister
his throat. But sole Virginia never
tires She will keep the little vii
liam down in tho future. The long
lean finger of Ber Hill, was never
pointed at more despicaple Great
ure and demagogue, than Malone.
He stands pilloried in stocks of pub
lie opinion, As base renegade-as
one who deserted his race and peo-
pie for place and power.-Thomas-
vile times.

The Thomasville times in speaking
of Emory Speer says if he is quoted
correctly, he has made very grave
but groundless charges against the
people of Georgia. Emory no doubt
yet feels the bitter sting of defeat
But that he should slander the peo-
pie of his state, in order to popular
ize himself with the powers that be,
is step which his personal friends
did not think he would take. When
ever renegade democrat fals-he
falls far and hard. He tries to out
herod Herod. Mr. Speer's bitter at
tack on law abiding citizens cannot
harm them. The people of this
state, and especially of the 9th dis
trict, are free from the domination
of Emory Speer.

The South Georgia Clarion says
that grand jpries are the guardians
of the moral interest of county
Their responsibility is great, their
privilege grand. their oath a solemn
one. The grand jury room is no
place for cowardice or trifing. He
who shirks duty there will dodge
anywhere. Law, is liberty.

Those planters with whom we con-
versed yesterday, all spoke of their
preparations to put in for a big crop
OF oats this fall, and are only waiting
for a good rain, to set about the
work. Let them feel assured that
they CO hardly overdo conveniently
this thing of planting too much oats.
There is more money and solid secu-
rty in oats than any cereal grown in
the South,-EufaGla Bulletin.

w. A. WRIGHT, Comp. Gen1.

Now, Messrs. Editors, in view of the
facts in this case and with the knowledge
that recent issue of the Americas Re
corder denomnated the demand Of Mr..
Crouch of the taxes due as an interruption
OF the sale, we want to simply suggest
that if Mr.. johnson will do his duty and
execute his promise of payment in the
same good faith and in the same spirit of
honesty that Mr.. Crouch exhibited in de-
manding it the ends of the law will be met,
and as citizens each of them will have
faithfully performed his duties and carried
out his contract. If there is one thing
more praise worthy than another in an Of
fetal act it is the exhibition of will on the
part of an officer to do his duty and no
more-to demand what the law imposes
and nothing more. Mr.. Crouch has done
this and deserves the highest commenda-
tion for his act

Brother McIntosh, of the News
and Advertiser, gives a very caustic
dig every now and then at the
country editor" because of the use
of the plural prononn "we." And.
yet, it is quite amusing to pick up a
file OF his paper and observe how
frequently that same big "we" is
used. Brother, ipeople who live in
glass houses should not throw stones.
II you really believe, brother McIn-
tosh, that this custom of using said
the pronoun in question iscoafned to
country editors, we would respect
fully call your attention to the edito-
rial columns of the Macon Telegraph.
