shrinks from the task OF making re-

The attention OF the vast concourse
was held throughout. The closing
part of bis appeal was tenderly touch
ing. and beautiful. He plead for the
interests of home, mother, vile, and
daughter. He plead with the voters.
He spoke 10 an eloquent and impress
sive manner to the colored people,
inspired them by the conduct of their
race 10 the contest in Atlanta, his
native place. He besought the young
men to be true to the interests of the
other sex, who are the great sufferers
from the awful curse of dram drink
ing. and liquor selling. At the con-.
clusion of his address Richard Welsh,
ESQ.,, offered resolution of thanks
for the address, which was uaani-
mously adopted by a rising vote.
The doxology was sung and the
benediction pronounced by the Rev

us of the following anecdote told by

"As Gen. Bragg army, $4,000
strong, was marching past country
house little dog ran out and barked
ut them. A woman followed him out
of the house and called out: Trip!
Trip! Come back, Trip! You shall

WE HAVE heard good deal of
talk about twenty-five Democrats in
Liberty school district signing the
disorganizing petition. On investi-
cation we find that twenty of them
will vote for Carter. Three of the
other five were not in the primaries
at all Our informant, who is good
man and whose name any one can
have by calling for it, says the matter
WAS grossly mlsrepresented to the
Democrats out there and that the
names were secured through false
statements. Some of the parties
with petitions appear to resemble the

"PARTY HARMONY"

The LtteHigeAcer, under the head
of Party Harmony last week in
an article Of a column and half
truckles most decidedly to the hand
full OF men who are doing their best
TO produce discord within the Demo
cratic party of this county. Yet that
paper. with all its want of fairness and
misrepresentation has to acknowl
edge that Mr. Carriers nomination was
fairly made and that he is q proper
man for the position. Now if Carter
is the right man, if his nomination
was fairly made and was within the
duty of the convention, as the InteLLi-
geRcer seems to admit, why not
go straight forward and support the
ticket without this hesitation and
downright kicking? The Intelligent
Ger undertakes to create the impress
sion that there is o considerable
number of these men engaged in
these efforts of disruption. The fact
is that they have held, or rather
undertook to hold, two meetings, at
neither of which have over a score
been present and not more than
| half a dozen of them. on account oi
their position IN the party, are en-
titled to the appellation, representa-
tive Democrats" The petitions "a:
easy a matter as it usually is to ge
sIgners to them) are falling still-horr
wherever they are presented for sig
natures. We know of one man VIII
has been carrying one around Mex
leo, the hot-bed of the kickers, TO
more than week with only his owl
name OH it. We warn the peopl
against permitting the Intelitgencer'
accounts of these meetings to hav
anv influence with them and as bein
anything more than q reflex OF tn
sentiment simply of the little handfr
CT kickers and disruptionists. Every
thing you see in our contemporary o
the subject read with many grains {
allowance.
