We oonuaeod it to the oonaiileratiou of all thou who consul our Legislature to setae* no one far United States Sena tes, who earns nnder the “ban” of the “disability” clause of the 14th Amend ment so-called, In order that the State may be nwwfcr represented. If the De mocracy of North Carolina are nnrepre- aented in the United States Senate, be cause they wen “so JMish" is to elect Oorcrnor Vance, who was nnder this ••ban,” how mnch worse off art they than tbs Democracy ot Alabama are, who elected an able man ot their choice, who was act under that “ban,” bat who was known to be oppoatd to Radicalism? This article, in oolline, covers the whale quaatiotL The dominant Faotion at Washington intend to perpetuate their pewer by naan potion. Tha Imperial Organ boldly an nosnoes that they will admit ao owe to the Senate, even if bo la not under the “ben” of the 14th Amendment, “unices his skirts are dear of' what it is pleased to style “Unklnriem. That it is here boldly aeeerted by this Organ of the Administration, that the Party in Power will establish even ether qualifications than thou set forth to the Constitution at they claim it to hate ieeit amended, whenever it sorts their per- pose! And yet the Organ, which has the aa* dseity thus to proclaim, and avow the purpose of tha Baling Dynasty, to on* tirely disregard the obligations of the Constitution, even at they Otemselvet have made it, has the still greater audacity to apeakof the perjury of those who take au oath to support the Oanetitution; bat who do not suppose that they thereby are bound, either in law, or conscience, to pay the least regard whatever to infa mous interpolations in the sacred instru ment, which rost alone upon “usurpa tion, fraud and perfidy-" Perjury involves both matters of fact and law; and the Imperial Organ here openly proclaims that the members of ita Party in the Senate intend to consummate the act in its greatest enormity in tramp ling on the Constitution of the ooantry, even u they claim that it now is; and in trampling on the liberties of the people, u wdl os the right* ot the States, when- avar it salts their purpose ot Centralism and Empire! The issue is thus distinct ly made, and it should be squarely met by the people at the poBt, and at any olection they are called upon to make! What will avail any oonoessJons to the exactions of Power, thus demanded? We repeat, what we have often laid be fore, that the only proper course for the people, anywhere, in all the States, it patiently to bear the ills that are span them, until, <4 the path, and in all other Constitutional troys, they shall, as they can, rightfully and pesos fully rectify all these wrongs, by driving the authors of them from Power. This can lie done, and will be done, in this way, unless a majority of the States are in favor of Empire. This vrado not belisve. It, however, never will be done, and never can be done, by yielding a voluntary concession to admitted usurpations. Power is ever encroaching. If aninah of right be voluntarily yielded, on de mand, an ell will soon be called tor in like manner. In reference to what is said in the ar ticle, quoted, by the Imperial Organ, upon the rabject of “Kuklaxlsm," and our teachings landing to such results, we, bare, barely my, that no one knows bet tor than the Editors of lb* Chrontdv, that no one in the United State* a* further from teeclung any such doctrines than w* are. They know full well, that our counsels, bom tha beginning, have been, and are, patiently to bear all the wrongs of maladministration, until they co» be properly righted, through the established instrumentalities of the Constitution— Law and order have beeoomr motto, end ear political watchwords thnmgh life; end especially ever rinc* the usurpations Of Reconstruction commenced.

Thn Washington Chronicia, edited by the notorious Holden, and the Ad- miaiatratfon Organ at the Capital, ah’ worthy of tha AdminUtia- The Northern Democracy. W* have, heretofore, (sines the late elections) given the opinions of able and true Democrats in Maine, New Hamp shire and Pennsylvania, as to the real sentiments of the honeet masses of the Party in. these States, upon the false movement fff their leaders in the recent nenqmfgM iu those and other Northern We now give an utterance ad the same subject, from that sterling champion of Jeffersonian principles, "The Democrat," published at Ottumwa, Iowa These indications, to say nothing of thousands of others, clearly show that the masses of the Northern Democracy do not, aqy more .than the masses of the Souther^ Democracy, sanction or ap prove tho “fraudulent amendments,” and that they aro ready to stand "shoulder to shoeWsr” with the friends of Free Insti tutions ovorywnefo, fn a rescue ot theUb- erties of the country, in the contest of 16T2, upon the square issue of Oonefita- tionalism against Centralism and Despo tism. Tbo Editorial ref errod to, is in the issue of that paper of the 12th inst., and is as follows: |-*The New Departure.” It is earnestly to ba drsired that those Democrats who strongly urged the New Departure and forced it upon the party are now satisfied. We loet California; Maine went Repub lican by an inoreasod msjurity; Con necticut ditto; Ohio goes Republican by 20,000; Pennsylvania by 16,000; Iowa will roll up 40,000; everywhere we have loet since the “New Departure" was taken. This brings us to a personal matter of whioh we shall briefly speak. Tho editor of this paper, before the Democratic State Convention assembled, did all that he oould to seenro the right kind of a platform for the Iowa Democracy. He went ns a delegate to tho convention, and finding that a large majority of the dele gates were in favor of even the extreme views of Mr. Vallandig- ham and that they would, in all proba bility, bo forced upon the convention, S i the compromise resolutions were offered by General A. C. Dodge. Wo accepted the plat form—not because we liked it—but for the sake of peace and to secure harmony in tha ranks of the Democracy. Those delegatee opposed to the New Departure, could have inaugurated at Dee Moines a feed which would have adit the party iu twain. Wo preferred, however, to do our fighting inside tho organization, and to diroot our fire against the oommon enemy. Willing to allow the New Deporturiats to try their polioy for one brief summer —willing to support the ticket nomi nated—we, however, are not willing to allow ourselves to be dragged any longer at the ehsriot wheels of Radicalism. We have submitted long enough; we have oarriod out in good faith our agreement to lia still during the campaign, but the campaign is over. Now, Good Bye, New Departure) Now, for a return to first principles! Now, for a revival o< Jeffersonian De mocracy!

Let ua see if the latter has the pluok to benefit by his. Four Threats Will Fail. There is a determined effort being made to prevent investigation of the conduct of Governor Bollock, and save him from the consequences of sey misconduct in office ot which he msy be found guilty. We cannot understand what a few persons mean, by what they aay, it this is not the object It is freely predicted that, if Bul lock is impeached and removed from office—no matter what proof may be ad duced—in less than thirty days thereafter, the whole country will be put under military rule, and civil government sus pended. This unmanly prediction is very quietly, but with a very confi dent air, whispered around by some who profess to be Democrats; and by some who claim to have aided, by their individual influence, in saving us from military rule in days gone by, giv ing individual pledges for good behavior in the future. A few persons belonging to these and like classes, aro uttering warning notes of the consequences of so rash an act as removing from office a Governor who may be oonvicted of high crimes snd misdemeanors. The plea is, apparently, thy .general Chant will support and np- hojd convicted felons and pnbho pl«n- dcrers, and punish the people who im pose the'ponaltles ot law upon the per petrators of such crimes. Those who urge this plea are either lacking in nerve to do right, or are aim ing to cover np, apologise for, and pro tect, 1 wrong doing. The same unmanly plea was urged most vehemently, and threats even were made, before Holden, of North Carolina, was removed; but he wae found guilty of grave offences, and turned out The honest men of the Leg islature were not deterred from perform ing their duty by such predictions and threats. Wo trust the Legislature of Georgia will not have those ovil predictions, but will discharge their duty to the State and the people, and take the conse- qaences. When the Legislature meets, it will, of course, investigate the charges which will lie preferred against tho Governor. It will, we hav9 no doubt, mako a clear and impartial investigation, uninfluenced either by passion on the one hand, or fear on the other. If lie is found to be ia- nooeut of sny wrong doing, he will l>e vindicated, se he ought to be. If he is found guilty of crimo or misdemeanor, Ik will be turned out of his offioe, as he ought to be. Those who are trying to hush np investigation, or to save him from punishment if found guilty, by ap pealing to our fears and prophesying evil, ore wasting their breath. Such, at least, is our judgment in this case. We believe the Legislature is com posed of men who are mode of sterner stuff than to quail or shrink from publio duty, before such wickedly intended prophesyings. From tho Auftuztz, Os., ContUluUonslUf, M Oct Col, Peterson Thweatt. We publish with pleasure the commu nication ot “Baldwin,” leoommending tho Legislature to elect the gentleman whose name heads this article os Comp troller General. [OOltWUNKUXWD.] hiiiton ConttUutionaliat: Allow mo, through your columns, to suggest to the Legislature the propriety ot eleating to tho office of Comptroller General, Col. rcterson Thweatt, the former efficient Comptroller. When he first went into that office, in 1866, although, from its first es tablishment, its duties were manifold, it was considered on office of little orao importance; but upon being elected Comptroller, CoL Thweatt found a Urge amount of old tax and other claims be longing to the State that had been passed in whioh they were j presented, that they were generally oopled in tha Naw Vori and other Northern papers, and from no other »nuree did Georgia credit derive greater support and enhancement, than from these reports of Mr. Thweatt. If in' better and honest day* Mr. Tliweatt’s services were of so much bene fit to the State, is it not reasonable to sup pose that, at this time, after Radicalism has had full sway for several years, his services will hereafter be doubly vsluablo to the State. That Bu’lock has used the State money most extravagantly and villainously, no one doubts. It by close investigation any of his rascally expendi tures can be recovered, who so well cal cuUted to detect them and expose and recover them than Mr. Thweatt If there was ever a time when the peo ple of Georgia needed their most intelli gent tried, experienced and honest men fa such office* os this, now is the time they want them, and I propose Colonel Thweatt as the man for Comptroller Gen end. Baldwin. From tha Ceinmtas «0*.| Son, tttk October, l*TI. The Meatgraraery Advertiser and Mr. Stephens. A few day* ago, the Montgomery Ad- vertiier charged Mr. Stephens and his friends with a disposition to rejoice over the defeats ot Democracy in Ohio and Pennsylvania. Why such assertions are made without the least proof, and why the Montgomery Advertiter should invent such wholesale defamation to be echoed by others against Mr. Stephens and his Democratic friends, excites especial wonder and oontempt The fame of Mr. Stephens for virtne and ability (and never hsv* these qualities been more clearly and forcibly exhibited than since hie brilliant editorial career) are too firmly established in the affections and convic tions of Gaorgians and the whole South, to be battered down by the weak paper bullets of a few eonoeited brains. Ilia the attempt of the Lilipotians to pin GniUver to the earth. Like the giant of Libya every time he is touched by the mod of bis enemies, his strength is re doubled. He stakes them off with the power and grace the eagle towering in hi* pride of place, scatters the dew-drops from bis plumage. Beoauae unable themselves to explore the depth or reach the height of the political argument, they moke up their mental deficiencies by peaking at Mr. Stephens personally. They call him “Bourbon," “Bed Hot," “Berolntioniat,” and to cap the elimox of abuse, they assert he is “erazyl” We would that hu traducera oould exhibit the seme method in their madness and imitate him in courtesy, condor, clear ness and conduct. If, in these particu lars, he is so immeasurably their supe rior, when non eompot mentis, what would he be in ease his mind was sound and its faculties were in perfect harmony? We rather imagine tho difference is only tbs slight one which the lunatic said existed between his opinion and that of the world—“Tha world thinks I am crazy, and I think the world is crazy.” The world will hardly hesitate to say that it would be wiser and better if the slander ers of Mr. Stephens had half mind enough to be crazed in like manner with the eminent patriot, writer, speaker and statesman. We despair, however, of such a happy consummation, ns there is a class of persons who have not the sense leasibility ont of which madness of- times springs. We regret that our space will not per il os to give the whole of Mr. S.’s ar ticle to our readers. over by former o(Boers and given np os lust By hie industry and investigations most, if not all, of these claim* were set tled, and a large amount, seme 820,000 or 830,000, was soon brought into the State Treasury.
