This was followod by considerable dis cussion, but the amendment was lost- yeas 91; nays 210. Mr. McMillan than moved the adop tion of the minority report, and. support ed the same in a speech—considering tbe majority report as a departure from an establial ed custom of tbe party. Mr. Styles replied, saying the two-thirds rule was an inoubue on the party. Mr. Mailer moved that where counties were unrepresented in tha Convention the members of the Legislature who were disposed to assume the responsibility, should be invited to a seat ou tbe floor.

Fielder was read, with drawing his name from the contest, Mr- Nicholls’ name was, also, with in a moment Capt. McMillan announc ed that the friends of Gen. Woflord, when they opposed the nomination of Col. Smith by aectamatiou, were not aware that Gen. Wofford's name had bent withdrawn, and withdrew their 'oppost- tion. * The motion to nominate Col. Smith by i luuutiou was renewed aud earned unanimously, without a single dissenting voice, amid the most prolonged aud en thusiastic applause Messrs. 8tyle3 uud McMillan were ap pointed a committee to notify Col. Smith of his nomination and request life accept ance of the same. P. W. Alexander then offered the fol lowing resolutions, whioh wets unani mousiy adopted : Whereas, power should ever be used wisely and justly for tbe benefit of thotf who confer it, and Whereas, there is a prospect for the first time in some years of placing the administration of the affairs of the State in tha hands of bar own sons, and Whereas, it is not deemed necessary at this time, to go into a particular enun ciation of our views and principkain re gard to general politioa, therefore Resolved, That we congratulate the ueople of Georgia upon tba.proepect of securing an honest and faithful admin istration of the State government, and we declar it to be the univswal de sire of those whom wo represent to se cure a good government, to live at peace, to pare aria* and wholasoms laws, and to have the same adnmiintcrod in a spirit ed banners in war will ho^r about him and-ns in the triumph that awaits us in P *WRh Kl&L who so geDeroofily | withdraw in my tutor, find-bis many Sb,~J fitrile hands to do all to secure of wisdom, justice ana moderation. Keaolved, That it is our fixed purpose to put down corruption in all depart ments of the State government, rid the Temple of Justice of the motiey chimgeres to practice economy in the expenditure of public money; to elevate ana preserve the publio faith and credit; to en- courago education; to develope the resources of the Commonwealth, and to bring back all branches of the Government, Executive, Legislative, and Judicial, to the ancient landmarks of the fathers. liuaolved, That as a Democratic Con* vention of the people of Georgia, 'we avail purselves of the occasion to renew our adhesion to the great Democratic party of the Union, and to assure all men that it is our desire and purpose, ani, ai far as in us lias, to pveierve public order, to bring to condign punishment all die* turbers of the peace, as well as all /un faithful public servants, aud to deal jturtJy and kindly with all classes of the people. A resolution of thauka to pol. Hart ridge, .the President, was unanimously adopted. Mr. Lamar stated, that since the tlierifcy of Hon. Clifford Andereon, chairman of the Democratic Executive Committee of the State had now ceased, he moved that the President of this Convention be authorized to appoint, at his leisi^re, two from each Congressional District and fbur from the State at large, as the new Executive Committee for the State, whfab was unanimously adopted. On motion of Mr. J. C. Dell, Col. Hart ridge was made Chairman of tbo Commit tee by unanimous vote. OoL Fielder was oallod ou, and deliv ered a short address, which was eloquent aid patriotic, congratulating the people of Georgia upon the prospect of a pure, unadulterated, old fashioned Democratic thy an lion of the Government by honest man—a gentleman and a patriot He scooted the idea that tlie United States Government would ever interfere with the lawful election of any civil offi cer when the loader of the plunderers had deserted his confederates and was a fugitive from justice. At tbe conclusion of his address, which was greeted with repeated and continued applause, tbe Oommittee appeared, escorting Ool. Smith, who was conducted to the stand, nnd was in troduced to the Convention by Col. Hur- tridge us the nominee of the Democratic party of Georgia for the office of Gov ernor, which was received with prolonged applau&e. He then addressed the Con vention substantially as follows: Mr. President and Gentlemen of the Convention: It can scarcely be expected of me to say more on this occasion than to express my heart-felt thanks for the distinguished honor you have conferred upon me to-day by the unanimous action of your body. If the peo ple of our noble Stole see pro per to ratify your action and shall elect me their ehief Executive, I beg leave to say that, while distrusting my ability, I have confidence in the om nipotence of honesty, and shall endeavor to discharge my duty with a firm reliance upon that virtue, and the honest support of an honest people. What do we need, and what are our wants, aud what is oar duty? There is plenty for every Geor gian to do, and work for patriotism is before us. Our finanees are in disorder. The people expect the Governor to so discharge his duty that they shall know what debts are honest aud what are dis honest It will require an honest Rian to perform this work faithfully, and I loudly applauded throughout his re- shah, if shown Governor, endeavor to do my duty. It is no egotism on my part As God sees mo to-day, I will maintain the honor, dignity, aud prestige of our noble State at the saoriiloe of everything save honor alone, I will give a large proportion of my attention to de feating the monstrous and unhallowed schemes of interlopers and peijured offi cials for defrauding an injured people of the fruits of their untiring industry and the State of her treasure. I waut to know how much we honestly owe. Confidence in the administration of the State Government must be restored at all hazards. Our late unfortunate sit uation has caused the people to lose con fidence in many able men who are capa ble of filling positions of high trust So often and so wide-spread has boeu the fraud, corruption and abuse of honors and distinctions heretofore considered as a guarantee of their righta and hbertiea, until now the name Governor of Georgia has become a syronym of dishonesty, corruption and perfidy. If cleoted, I shall feel the vast respon sibility of tho office. My first aud high. friend right, and lift up our down-trodden State and restore her that glorious prestige when men were selected for honesty, fidelity and patriotism to guard their treasures and liberties; end to Gen. Wof ford, again I say, if he does his duty in Georgia os he did in Virginia, suc- oe«to will orown our common efforts, and our noble State will be emancipated at last, from the vampyres that feed up on her vitals and the thieves that plunder her people’s homes. I am a native Georgian. I know that in these days it is not altogether honor able to he a native oi this Htate (laugh ter), bat 1 am guilty. She is my mother State, and I shall return to her bofom as tbe loot noting place of . Time, and when J. am gone it. shall never lie mid that I abused my Tlrothefb in free dom. No one shall ever blush for his generous support of me. By honesty, integrity and fidelity I hope u> make my grave among the tears of those whom the villainy and treachery of the thieves and- human vipers that throng our Courta aud infest our Louies, have made to suffer.” (Prolonged anti enthusiastic applause^) City Elections.—The following is the result of the election for Mayor and CouncilmeD, in this city yesterday; :,v ?
