Let 1t Come!

General Thomas J. Brady, OF Star
Route fame, is engaged in writing a
book exposing the election frauds of
Louisiana and Florida in 1876. lie
saws he knows rs much about the trade
as any other person, and thinks he can
write truthful history of the historic
steal. He was one Of the. "visiting
statesmen" and spent some three months
in Florida during the controversy. In
a somewhat extended interview printed
in IN evening paper, the General is
quoted as saying: II propose to place
several alleged statesmen and Others in
the public pillory in order that their
fellow-citizens may see them in their
true light. Some people posing before
the public as moral saints, with a
holier-than-thou cast Of countcnacc,
l shall impale upon the points of their
own corruption. l shall embellish my
book with fac-simile autograph letters
and memorials which will speak for
themselves" This book will be rich
reading, and we hope it will soon make
its appearance.

Serves Her Right.

The attitude OF Atlanta towards the
stricken city Of Charleston is exciting
widespread Indignation and comment.
The New York Star speaking of it says
that not only Charleston, but almost
every Southern community. rcscrts
bitterly the mean and selfish course Of
the Atlanta Constitution toward that
afflicted city. One would suppose that
Il calamity such as has befallen Char
lesion would call forth every gentle
and generous emotion in mems breasts,
but it appears that the Constitution
sees in it only the occasion for decry-
ing the business hopes Of Charleston,
and lauding the prospects and facilities
of Atlanta. The Constitution sent its
own Grady to write up the ruin Of
Charleston and explain the utter in
security of everything commercial in
that neighborhood; and then it recalled
its own Grady, so that the contrast of
Atlanta's superior advantages could
receive equally graphic treatment. We
observe, however, that adjacent cities
regard this as contemplate, and we are
glad to believe that the Constitution
will lose by it as much as it had fatu-
OuSly hoped to gain.

No Scratching.

We hear IL great many menSay that
they will not vote for negroIor. Office
if put on the Democratic ticket. With
out stopping to discuss Fhe pro-
prietv of the action of the convention
in deciding to put two negroes on the
ticket, we enphatically say that tits the
duty Of the Democrats Of the County
to vote for the entire ticket as noni-
mated by the primary, negro and all.
The very life Of the party itself depends
upon it's purity and Il strictcnforce-
neut of the rules and regulations, and
a rigid and uncompromising discipline.
One who obeys the party ipandates,
and supports the nominated ticket, re-
gardless of his personal obj&tions or
animosities for those who compose it,
deserves party confidence and can alone
be trusted to keep UP and preserve the
organization. When the action Of the
party convention is rehellcd against,
and the ticket scratched or openly
opposed, it will not be long before the
party itself will go to pieces. Our adj
vice to all Democrats is to vote the
ticket straight, whether the ticket as Il
whole suits their views or not. In this
way alone can the unity and aScen-
dancy of the Democratic party he
maintained ....

Southern Prosperity.

The New York Commercial Adver-
tiser reports immense activity, in dry
goods. groceries, building, boots and
shoes and ali trades and occupations.
Much of this briSkness is said to be
because OF increased Southern orders.
The business development Of thsSQuth
is declared to he one Of the notable
signs of the times. The Commercial
Advertiser emphasizes the fact that
while the market of the West not only
holds its own but is constantly grow
ing, what is practically a new market
of almost boundless possibilities has
arisen in the South. 1t asserts that
this prodigious increase in the purchas'
ing power Of the Southern States is in
no slight degree the cause Of the sub
stantial increase in the business OF
New York city. The New Orleans
Picayune considers these signs unmis'
taxable, not only Of a general improve.
ment in the markets of the country
but special and unerring index of the
excellent credit and prosperity OF The
South. This is not q time for any man

"rhe Meanest City"-in America.

'The MenneSt CITY III America.
Mr.. Chas. II. Behrc, Il Charlestonian,
but now L resident of Atlanta, Was in
Charleston the other day, and WAS natur-
ally indignant. at the attitude OF the At
lanta Constitution in Charleston's time
of trouble. MIR. Behre. in the course OF
conversation with representative
of the News and Courier said
81 have seen publications in various
newspapers in this State and Georgia
in reference to the course of the Allan
til Constitution as to Charleston'S mis-
fortune. and l desire to take it upon
myself to say that the Constitution does
not reflect the sentiments of the people
of Atlanta. I assure you from my own
knowledge that from the time the
news of Charleston's calamity first
reached our city our people were
stirred. The Hon. Charles \. Collier
was appointed to go to Charleston and
ascertain the extent Of the damages
and a mass meeting Of the citizens Was
called. which resulted in the raising Of
Il fund Of $500 for the relief of Char
lesion. I also know that number of
our principal business houses, us soon
as the extent of CharleSton's disaster
was known, instructed their statesmen
to come home SO as to offer no compctl-
tion to Charleston houses
As the News and Courier says Mr..
Behre, being Charlpstonian, doubtless
feels very strongly for Charlestonians,
but his feelings and his statements do
not explain the fact that the Constitu-
ton, the leading paper Of the Gate City,
has done what it could to check and
chill the flowing tide of help with
declarations that none WAS needed.
Nor do they disprove the fact that the
Constitution, which must he taken to
represent Atlanta until Atlanta repu-
dates It's utteraTces, has endeavored to
use the calamity Of Charleston and the
misfortunes of Augusta for Atlanta's
advantage, and has boastfully paraded
Atlanta's immunity from trouble and
the advantages it gives her over other
cities. Mr.. Behre, doubtless, expresses
his own views on the subject and, per-
hapS. voices the views of some of the
people of Atlanta, but the fact remains
that the Atlanta Constitution is the
only paper in this broad Union that
has made an effort to chill the generous
tide of contributions to the Charleston
sufferers, and that it is the only paper
which has cndeavorel to take advan-
tage Of Charleston'S calamity to push
Atlanta forward. While every other
newspaper in the country, North,
South, East and West, was engaged in
urging the people to increase their
business with Charleston and to give
all they could to relieve the distress,
the Atlanta Constitution alone at
tempted to chill the charity which was
overwhelming this city with its kind
ness and to call attention TO the
superior advantages of that city. At
lanta's growing reputation as 1.-The
meanest city in America" cannot be
changed by the assertion of Mr.. Behre
that he reputliates the Constitutions
position. The entire people of Atlanta
should be heard from.
