CONVENTIONS.
We are fearful that these must be re
garded as necessary evils in Republican
Governments. While agreeing with
Gov. Brown that they are subject to
misdirection and corruption, tnere me
many instances in which re-course must
be had to them for the rightful expres
sion of public opinion. If we wish to
alter a Constitution or inaugurate a
great commercial, or in lac 1 , any other
public movement, resort, for obvious
reasons, is had to a Con ven'ion. It
serves to concentrate and sys'ematise
concurrent public opinion and there is
no other way in which this object can
be attained.
Look for a moment at the difficulties
attending the absence of nominating
Conventions. The law requires a ma
jority of all the votes cast for the elec
tion of Governor If there arc more
than two candidates the election is al
most certainly defeated and devolved
upon the Legislature. We do not think
that this is desirable, though, if there
were no other difficulties to be encoun
tered in opposing Conventions we would
unhesitatingly prefer that .alternative.
But we must have an Electoral T ick
et. How can we get it but by Conven
tion ? How can we get members of
Congress and State Senators but by the
same process ? We may have a hall
dozen candidates for each office. It a
plurality elects, and we suppose it docs,
then candidates having a minority of
votes, represent or misrepresent their
constituents.
If the fundamental'law could be adap
ted to meet the exigency, we would be
glad to see an end of Conventions. As
it is, we do not Jhink they can be got
rid of, as it is the o«7y m >de of uniting
public opinion, and in union there is
strength, the end sought in all political
aspiration.
If we ever support a nomination it
will be one free from the taint of cot
ruption, and we can only sustain it
then from a sense of public duty. We
will .have to take the Electoral Ticket
of the approaching Convention ; but its
candidate for Governor must be worthy
of the State and t.f the occasion to re
ceive popular approval.
EXTRACT OF A I.FITTER FROM NEW

At a meeting of the Confederate
Guards, the following preamble and res
o'ut o is being introduced were adopted.
Whereas it has pleased the Almighty to
remove from our number, Benjamin
Franklin Ward, by w< tin Is received
whilst gallanty fighting in our sacred
cause. Also Henry Bagget and Ste

were as thorough soldiers, as any who
died by the bullet, therefore, by this
Company.
Resolved — That whilst wo bow with
submission, to the irrevocable mandates
of (he Great!) Commander above, we
feel that the vacancy left in our ranks
by B. Frank Ward, Stephen C. Moon
and Henry Baggett, can never be filled
as they filled ii, and we will ever checr
ish tin ir memory sacredly.
Resolved— That this whole company
do. willingly tender to t.ie relatives of
deceased, our heartfelt sympathies—
and to the citizens of Cobb County and
of the State of Georgia, we bear wit

lant qualities, as soldiers and as gentle
men possessed by the deceased B. Frank
Ward, Stephen C. Moon and Henry Bag

the Marietta Advocate and that a copy
be sent to the relatives of each of the

He is a man of experience, integrity,

contended that St Louis, once in the

RESOURCES OF 8 HE SOUTH.
'i he rise in Southern stock’s has been
brought about not only by purchasers
on foreign account by Dailies aware of'
the ch.mces of recognition, but by the
conversion of Southern ownership in
Northern property since the threats of
confiscation. The Southern owners of
Northern rail road, bank other stocks
, reason that if the North succeeds in
and its projects of subjugation, it xvill
confiscate Southern property. Hence
it is safer to have their property in
Southern investments. On tiie other
hand, if the South succeeds in its inde
pendence, the Confederate State bonds
be worth par and more. For these and
similar reassons the commission houses
have had large orders to buy Southern
State stocks, and, the payment in some
cases arc made by draft on the city
banks. lt"is one feature of the case, and
one intended by those who look to sep
arntionas a mean sos material benefit
lo the South, that all Southern capital
employed at the North will becalled
home and employe! there in ft manner
that will develop industrial elements.
Those self-deluded and deluding per
sons who affected contempt for South
ern poverty have left out of view the
great fact that xvealth attracts
wealth. New York having been
the great financial centre of the Union
has been the point to which S .uthern
capital has tended for investments.—
This being doin', the migration ot that
Southern capital from the North to its
new employments is pressing hard up
on the resources of the North, and
threats of confiscation have given a
new impulse to the movement. The
South, in the new order of things, will
require all.the capital it can command
to develop the home industries which
are to a supplant the Northern pro
ducts. 'lliis withdrawal of capital
from the North and applying it to pro
ductive occupation at the South, will
give employment to thousands who
have heretofore not been employed, and
will confer upon the Border States that
wealth and importance which have
heretofore been the heritage of North
ern States, but to which they have pre
ferred war with its horrors. The
Southern resources are immense, and
if concentrated at home will rapidly ac
cumulate.
In illustration of the relative resour
ces, we may state what is a truism,
that every country and section of a
country imports as a general thing
only the equivalent for its surplus pro
ductions exported. Thus, if a town
employs its whole industry in produc
ing wheat, and has 1,000,000 bushels
to sell at $1 per bushel, its imports will
be the equivalent $1,000,000 in money,
goods, and whatever it chooses to
take in'cxcha'ige. It may in one year
import more, but it will owe for the
excess over the sum of its exports, and
will be obliged to import as much less
in another year. The same is true of
the nation. After all iircrnal wants
are supplied, there is a quantity of ar
ticles to be exported. 'I he sum realiz
ed for these articles will be the nmouut
of imports in whatever shape
thev may come, and those imports will
I elong to the sect ions • that produced
the exports. When a duty is levied up
on the e - oods imported, it is in effect
paid by the produce exported, since
without those exports then' had been
no imports possible and by consequence
no revenues.
With these remarks, we take from
the returns ol the Treasury Depart
ment (he following figures, showing
the value of the exports and imports
for for<y years viz: from 1821 to 1861,
with the customs paid in the same
time:

Gross value of imports. .5,591,238,157

1 >r which protective duties are ievie I
is to give the manufactures <>t .he pro-
tected article a price, higher by the
amount, of duty than the imported artic
!<• can be had for. Thus, if 100 yards of
Cotton cloth can be imported for $lO, a
20 per cent, duty makes the cost sl2,
ill order that the home manufacturers
may get their price of course, at the ex
pense of (he consumer.
In order, therefore, to find how much
the South and West have paid in this
way to the North and East, wo have on
ly to get the quanities manufactured in
the forty years. ,
The Treasury returns give the approx
imate quanities of goods manufactured
in the country. We may select only cot
ton wool and iron as those which have
‘open most persistently protected. Since
1820 tiie duty has ranged from 24 to 50
per cent. We shall now make a table
of the quanity made and the extent to
which the value was raised by the duty
as follows;
Manufactured, Duty,
1821(0 1861. 25 cent.

Iron 1,101.886,536 275,4 11,634
Total. .$4,289,360,832 $1,072,340,208
We thus peiceivethatduring the time
in Avliich the South and West have paid
$900,000,000 on imported goods for the
support of the Government, they have
paid $1,072,340,208 in protection to the
North and East, on the domestic pur
chase of three articles only. Is it any
matter of surprise that with such a vast
drain of wealth, the national wealth
should be unequally divided? that the
North and East should be rich or that
the South and West, should be poor? It
is a matter of surprise, however, that
those who have reaped this profit should
become so purse proud as to sneer at
and domineer ovc» - the paying section
for their poverty and want of means to
resist Northern arms. There is no
wonder that even the Republican mem
bers of the West should threaten no lon
ger to pay this “tribute,'’ lint, to cast off
the incubus of the East. The avowed
public policy of the Confederate States
is entire free trade for the \\ est as well
as for themselves, and there is no dou t
but that a community of interest will
sooner or later coincide in a common
policy after the war party shall have de
stroyed their own interests and the na
tional character.
Run the Blockade.—The steamer
Miramon, whicii for some time has been
confined in the port of Mobile by the
Yankee blockaders managed to effect
her escape on 1 >st Monday night dur

at anchor in the Lake, at the termnius
of the I’ontchartrain Railroad. This is
the steamer whose appearance on Tues
day in the Mississippi so alarmed the
people of the lake shore watering pla

that she is much more likely to prove a

The Treasury Not; s of the Confed
erate States. —We learn that Treasury
Notes of the Confederate States, lo a
large amount, xvere received in this city
a few days ago, with a view of putting
them into immediate circulation. '1 he
Notes arc of the denomination of $5,
$lO, SSO, and SIOO. The mechanical
execution ol the Notes, however, was
found to be so indifferent, that our ex
perienced bank officers at once decided
that, to circulate them would be to oiler
a chance t > the clever forgers of A’an
kcedom, of which they would not be
slow to avail themselves. After some
consultation, it was determined that it
would be best that our city banks should
rccei\’e the Notes, aiid retain them in
their vaults until they can be exchanged
for Noles less liable to imitation, and
more worthy the dignity of the South
ern Government. In the meantime, to
prevent any embarrassment, the banks
will, we understand, issue their own
Notes to the amount required. We
liave not seen any of the objectionable
specimens cf the Treasury Notes, but
we hear that they are merely litho
graphed, and in design and finish pres
ent few obstaces in the way of any
skillful forger. We believe that the
views of our Charleston bank officers on
this subject are fully concurred in
by the bankers of Richmond.
