FOR PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES : HORATIO 8EYMOUR, Of Now York. FOR VICE PRESIDENT: FRANCIS I*. H Ia jL. IR, Of Missouri. Notice! Notice!! One and AH!!! All who can do so, are requested to come mounted on Thureday night, to take pari in the torch-light procession. Jas. F. Alexander, Chairman Democratic Club Fulton County. The State Convention. It will be seen in another part of this paper that the Chairman of the State Executive Committee, announces Davis’ Hall as the place, and 10 o’clock this morning as the hour at which the delegates from the several counties will con vene. lie also requests that the Chairman of each Delegation will prepare and have ready a list of Delegates, to facilitate an organization of that body. Where le (.rant 1 Says a St Louis dispatch dated the 18th inst.: “ Generals Grant, Sherman, Sheridan, and Dent, left Leavenworth this morning for Denver, via the Kansas Pacific Railway.” In the Union. At 12 M. on yesterday, while sitting in our sanctum, we were painfully reminded by the dull sound of a “six-pounder” fired at intervals near to the new capitol, that Georgia had passed out of the keeping of the Military and into the keep ing, for the nonce, of the Radical Party. It was a painful reminder indeed, that salute in honor of the inauguration of Governor Bullock. What Georgia was, has been written. What she now is, as repieseuted by her rulers—rulers lorced upon her people by Federal bayonets—we shall not dwell uuon. But what she will he again, it needs no prophet, uor the son of a prophet, to loretell. The people will redeem her from the bondage of radical rule. They will wipe out the disgrace inflicted upon her by fraud and by force. When next, if indeed we shall have to wait that long for the day of rescue, a Governor shall be inaugurated,it will be one of the white mau’s choice, fairly elected and duly qual ified ; one representing the intelligence, the vir tue, the ui iuliood, and t!|e property of the State. Until then, let our people be patient, trust in God, and work for the deliverance that will surely come! We are now in the Union. In it, not as freemen asserting the rights of the State, but whipped into it, aa overpowered people, hang ing our heads in shame. Be it so ! Those who have brought the State to this pass, are alone re sponsible for it. Tlie Tlilrd Party ffleu 1'or Seymour and Blair. The members of the late “Third party” in thi9 locality express themselves as highly delighted at the nomination of Mr. Seymour and promise the ticket an earnest support. We certainly are gratified that these respectable gentlemen can give in their adhesion to the party. We wel come them most cordially to our ranks, and are prepared to kill the “fatted calf and make merry” over their return. We were satisfied that the larger number of them could not go with the Radical party in its crusade against the Constitution. During the canvass we will no doubt hear from many of them on the stump.— Judge Kinkead, Hon. J. F. Bell, Hon. Aaron Harding, Col. Jacob, and a host of others will rally the masses and their eloquent appeals will tell in a largely increased Democratic majority iu our grand old Commonwealth.—Danville Ad vocate. The gentlemen above alluded to, says the Lou isville Courier, “ are all men of character and talents. As they gave way to a blind jealousy and fought the Democratic organization of Ken tucky upon a personal platform and at a terrible disadvantage, their failure was no true measure of the influence they are capable of wielding when standing squarely upon the principles to which we know they are faithful. As much of the present prejudice in the North against Ken tucky Democracy is due to their hostility as Third party men, we would suggest that they are the very persons to remove it. The eminent orators of the late Third party who are now tor Seymour and Blair would be strong enough in themselves to meet and overmatch the Radical champions of any one State in the North. The Democracy of this State would proudly accredit them as our representatives on such a mission, and cheerfully recognize their services when they return. On the other side of the river, our friends will be sorely pressed, and will need all the help we can send them. We cannot send them better than Bramlette, Jacob, Harding, Bell, “ of the silver tongue,” Kinkead, and oth ers like them. There is no contest in Kentucky, and to have such a force idling in reserve at this time is a sad waste of noWe material. . The Columbus Prisoners. The following order from Headquarters was handed on yesterday by Geo. Sibley, the Presi dent of the Court to try the “ Columbus Prison ers,” to Gen. Dunn, the Judge Advocate: Headquarters Third Military District, t Department of Gkorgi \, Alabama, and Florida, n- attanta, Ga., July 81,1S»S. j Brevet Brig. Gen. C. C. Sibley, U. 8. A., Presi dent Mil it ary Commission : General—In view of the action of the Legis lature to-day, aud the probable immediate ad mission of tbe State ot Georgia, and consequent cessation of military authority, the Commanding General directs that the Commission, ot which you are President, suspend all further proceed ings iu the trial ot the prisoners charged with the murder of Aehbnrn. Tbe prisoners, how ever, will be retained in custody until further orders. Very respectfully, your obedient servant, R. C. Drum, A. A. G. This, we presume, closes the military trial of tbe persons, falsely, as we religiously believe, charged with the murder of Ashburn. The New York Evening Post contains an arti cle entitled “ Out-of-door Religion in Chicago.” This is the first intimation we have seen that there is any religion in Chicago either out of doors or within. A clergyman observing a poor man by the road breaking stones, and kneeling to get at his work better, made the remark: “Ah, John! I wish 1 could break the stony hearts of my hearers as easily as yon are breaking those stones.” “Perhaps, master, you do not work on your knees,” was the reply. THE STATE DEMOCRATIC CONVEN TION. This body will assemble in this city, at Davis’ Hall, on Broad street, at the hour of 10 o’clock this morning. The ratification of the nomina tion of Seymour and Blaib ; the nomination of Electors for the State at large and ior the sev eral congressional districts; will constitute the business proper ot the Convention. That the attendance will be large we have received every assurance which primary meetings held in the several counties most surely indicate. The del egation from this county consists of the follow- ing individuals: • J H Steele, Miles Turpin, J F Cooper, W T Newman, E F Hoge, H Mnhlenbrink, R F Maddox, Dr John Westmoreland, Jared 1 Whitaker, Isaac Mitchell, Colonel Echols, B F Abbott, TL Wells, J J Meador, John Thomas, Varney A Gaskill, James Lynch, A S Pool, ▲ B Matthews, C W Styles, Sam R McCamey, John Gannon, L J Glenn, A Leyden, Hon W A Ezzard, M H Sisson, W H Brotherton, J M Clark, B F Wyley, W P Orme, J W Rucker, J R Wallace, J M Patton, Dr E P Roach, Amos Fox, Philip Dodd. On tbe same occasion the following gentle- men, on motion of Colonel Maddox, were ap pointed a Committee to make all the necessary preparations for the accommodation of the Con vention : C A King, O A V Rose, George Wallace, Geo H H Parrott.

The Chairman of the several County Delegations will please report, upon their arrival, at Democratic Head quarters on Broad street. James F. Alexander, Chairman Dem. Ex’ve Com. of Fnlton Connty. From the Knoxville Herald, 17 th. A Fierce Note. Knoxville, Tenn., July 15th, 1868. In the Whig of to-day I notice that a para graph of the article written by myself in regard to the murder of Col. Ashby is copied, as a text from which the editor (I suppose) of that paper eaters upon a wholesale personal abase of my self and combination of ties. I do not propose answering anything that can be said through the columns ot that paper, as it is well known in Knoxville lor Brownlow to slander a man is the best recommendation that can be given to the respectable portion of tbe community. Be sides, what is the use in my telling the people of Knoxville that John Brownlow lies, when even bis friends will admit that he never utters any thing else! Or that he is a slanderer, when his birth itself was a base slander upon human na ture ! Or that he is infamoos, when infamy is indelibly stamped upon every feature of his face as well as bis heart! Or that he is a scoundrel, when every act of his life attests it. Who, but a scoundrel and a coward ot the most atrocious kind, would creep up behind a fellow-student, whom he had not the cour age to face, and murder him ? Or who else would willfully murder a prisoner, or speak of a man, when dead, whom he dared not mention while alive, as he does Col. Ashby? But it is useless to undertake to mention the numerous acts by which he has declared to the world his infamy, his blackness of heart, and the utter want of brains. I shall therefore drop him, as he is only recognised as a stench in the nostrils of decent people any way, and like other skunks, looks to his filth to protect him from the hands of gentlemen. I will say here, that I shall not notice any other article that may appear in the Whig, as I have a more respectable employment than replying to snch an author. Anything fur ther that he may wish me to hear must be said verbally, or through a friend. ' Thos. R. Terry. We learn, privately, that this card produced quite a local excitement in Knoxville on tbe day of its appearance, but quiet reigned in Warsaw when Col. John Brownlow announced, in the afternoon that he was not on the war path.— Hash vide Union dt Dispatch. Democratic Blectlac In Henry Can a tv.

That the members of this Club will not employ a Radical, neither while nor black, after the present contracts or agreements ex pire.” The above rule I hope every Club will adopt. J. A. C. From the Nashville Union & Dispatch. The Williamson Tragedy—Tbe Sequel to tbe Rape of Miss Ezell. On Friday we announced the shocking out rage of rape upon the person ot Miss Ezell, ot Williamson county, by a negro by the name of William Gaston, alias Wiuiam Guthrie, alias Blank, with tbe horrible circumstance attending tbe crime. On Sunday we stated that the black demon had been captured, and subsequently taken from the jail, at Franklin, and carried four miles from tbe town and shot. This act was approved by every person in tbe country and elsewhere, who read the account, who re spected virtue aud innocence. But a few mean whites instigated the negroes to avenge the death of one of their race, who had put himself out of the pale ot law by the most hideous crime known to civilization, and characteristic only of the savage. Accordingly, a company was raised to waylay the road for the purpose of wreaking vengeance on those supposed to be concerned in thft death of the criminal. On Saturday, the brother of the out raged girl was in Franklin, and leaving late in the afternoon, with five or six others living in the neighborhood, proceeding quietly to their homes, were ambushed on the road by a party of armed negroes and whites, numbering from fifty to seventy-five, and fired upon. Young Ezell was mortally wounded, aud died on Sunday evening. Two others of the party were also wounded—one slightly, in the foot or leg, and another, it is stated, severely, and it is feared, mortally. The hour was nearly dark, but light enough remained to discover among tbe am bushing party a sprinkle of incendiary whites, who are known as the ringleaders of the worst negroes, and avail themselves of every occasion to foment strife and create enmity and violence between the races, who would be otherwise har monious. These facts show that there is au element in this State who are determined, if possible, to first incite the negro to lawlessness and crime ot the most hideous character, and then to uphold aud sustain them in it; that the innocence and virtue of the white woman may be violently as sailed and outraged by tbe most evil disposed of negroes, and when justice overtakes the fiends, their blood is to be avenged by armed mobs ambushing tbe high roads and murdering the white men of the neighborhood. This is bring ing matters to a fearful crisis, and throws upon the public the question, whether they will per mit society to iapse into this barbarous condi tion, or save it by ail the means which nature has bestowed lor self protection. We confess that we cannot reason upon such a theme. The decree of Heaven written in the hearts of most men is, death to the destroyer of female purity. Where communities are involved, the law is still binding, and we say to the fathers, and sons, and brothers of Williamson, protect and defend your wives, and mothers, aud daughters at all hazards,^and to the last extremity ! The white people of Tennessee will sustain you. Heaven will smile on you. Do nothing precipitately ; stand on the defensive; but when a crime like that of last Thursday is committed, let not the sun set upon your wrath, but let it be satisfied at once. Be sure that none but the guilty suffer, and all will be well. FEELING IN THIS CITY AND RUMORS FROM FRANKLIN YESTERDAY. Comparatively few of our citizens knew of the murder of young Ezell till the morning train arrived, when the facts were rapidly communi cated from mouth to mouth. They created a profound sensation, aDd the universal sentiment was, that the mnrder of the brother was no less atrocious than the defilement of the sister. By noon or a little after, it was rumored that a dreadful riot was raging in the town of Frank lin between tbe whites and blacks. Notwith standing, these could be traced to no reliable source, the excitement increased, and the univer sal inquiry was, what news from Franklin ? A telegram from Franklin reported all quiet at 4 p. m., but no “extras” being issued, tbe inquiry was still on every lip. Tbe interest was not abated by the arrival, at intervals, ot sweating and dust-covered negroes, who related that a fearful war was going on at Franklin, and they were forlorn fugitives, barely iw-aping with their lives. One ot these in onr hearing said there were a hundred thousand Ku-Klux at Franklin, and he “ know’d more’n half on ’em.” His eyes shone like the full moon, and his teeth were like marble tomb stones, Another said he left Franklin an hoar and a half ago, and “ run’d all de way.” Still another said he was shot a hundred times, and lilted his dangling rags to prove how the balls had riddled him. A few straggling whites, the self-convicted rascals who were trying to escape the tortures of a rudimentary conscience, came, without pursuit, from the bloody scene—oue or two of them known to have been behind the rock fence when Ezell was killed. They were all inquiring for tbe Press and limes, and the over-anxious may find ail they had to say in that sheet. After the arrival of the 5.46 p m. train, pas sengers reported that great excitement prevailed in Franklin on Sunday after the murder of Ezell was known. That negroes were arriving and sending runners into the country for reinforce ments. That the citizens ot Franklin felt the utmost indignation, and were determined to de fend themselves. That in the afternoon ot yes terday a body of armed negroes appeared on this side ot Harpeth river, near the railroad bridge, and that soon after a party of whites from the town came to the opposite side, both armed. That after remaining for some time, the 4 negroes proposed an exchange [ot hostages, twenty each—for what purpose was not re ported—but that no exchange was made. That .negroes were flocking from all quarters to the scene of strife. That the people of Franklin weqp receiving reinforcements from surrounding counties. That the telegraph wires had been cut. That United States soldiers were leaving Nashville by special trains. That everybody and everything was war. This all came by 7i o’clock, with an infinity of variations and addi tions to the story, which may be found at least in one of our contemporaries in full this morn ing. THE TRUTH. At half past 8 p. m., we received the follow ing special telegram: “Franklin, July 20.— Union and Dispatch: Ezell, the brother ot the girl who was ravished, was murdered on bis way home from this place on Saturday night. No fighting since then. All is quiet now.” This dissipates the bulk of the reports of the day. But we place credence in the report that affairs are still threatening, and believe that we may hear to-day that all has not been quiet on the Harpeth. We base this belief upon the fact that the vile instigators of this black mob do not intend there shall be peace in the State, and that this affair is put up to fortify the Legislature, soon to meet, in tightening the screws upon an oppressed people. Important from military Headquarters. He vbquahters Third Military District, Department op Georgia, Alabama, and Florida. Atlanta, Ga., July 22, 1868. General Orders, No. 103. Whereas, Official information has been re ceived at these Headquarters from the Governor elect of the State of Georgia, that the Legisla ture of said State, elected under the provisions ot General Orders No. 39 and 40, current series, from these Headquarters, has assembled and complied with the requisitions of the act of Con gress, which became a law June 25, 1868, enti tled an act to admit the States of North Caroli na, South Carolina, Louisiana, Georgia, Ala bama, and Florida, to representation in Congress; aud whereas said act states that on compliance with the conditions therein set forth by any State, the officers of said State, duly elected and quali fied under the Constitution thereof, shall be in augurated without delay; it is therefore or dered, I. That all civil officers, holding office in the State, whether by military appointment or by failure to have successors qualified, shall prompt ly yield their office and turn over to their duly elected and qualified successors, all public prop erty, archives, books, records, &c., belonging to the same. II. Whenever the military commander ot the sub-District ot Georgia, is officially notified of the inauguration of the State government elect, military authority under the acts of Congress, known as the Reconstruction Laws, will be at an end in said State ; and it is made the duty of the sub-District commander to transfer every thing appertaining to the government of said State to the proper civil officers, and to abstain in future, upon any pretext whatever, from any interference with or control over the civil author ities of the State, or the persons and property of the citizens thereof. III. On the inauguration of the civil govern ment, all prisoners held in custody or by bonds tor offenses against the civil law, will be turned over to the proper civil authority. In the mean time wrils of habeas corpus from United States Courts will be respectfully obeyed and the de cisions conformed to. Writs from State courts will have respectful returns made, stating pri soners are held by authority ot the United States, and can only be released by writs issued by the United States Courts.

Hard on Snyder.—As Ben Butler was walk ing up Seventh street the other morning, he passed a shop where a lot ot second-hand house hold furniture was being sold at auction. He is an acquisitive man, and, like Mrs. Toodles, has an eye for a goad uargain, so he stopped before the entrance. Just as he crossed the door-sill the crier held up a bundle and called out; “Now we come to these fine silver spoons. Splendid article. Good as new. Who bids ? Who bids ? ” The crier rattled on thus for a minute withont getting an answer, when, being entirely uncon 8Cious of so distinguished a presence, he ob served, fretlully, “ Well, you’re a mighty keerlul crowd. You must think these is some of the spoons Butler stole at New Orleans.” Just here the General was recognized, and, amid a shout ot merriment,'beat a hasty and somewhat skulking retreat. He ought to be very circum spect about auctions. To men in his situation, they sometimes raise as many apparitions as church-yards. There is as much terrifying, ghostly material in a brace of silver spoons as in a death’s head, and a great deal more cause for serious alarm to men like him.— Washington Correspondence LouisviUe Journal.
