ol'l fashioned Democrats who helped
found and build the Republican party
carried into it their Democratic belief'
and prejudices. Of late they liavt
i been growing more and more uneasy
: and di-nintentedcd. Tho men and
ideas that control the party to-day are
not to their liking. They are dinqut-^
eted and alarmed at the turn of af
fairs ; at the steady and rapid drift to
ward loose construction and centraliza
tion. Dies hav$ qot felt at home ini

Tho Chronicle anl Sentinel copies
the d»«-l*ratinn of u correspondent of
the Athens H'atc/iman, who says that
“ Greeley soems to be the universal
choice of the planters in Elbert, Hart
and Franklin counties, and they are
anxious for the Democratic Conven
tion at Baltimore to reiniin silent.”
The conclusions of this correspond
ent are thus used to spread the impres
sion that Greeley is acceptable to the
Democracy of the counties named, and
*o prevent a straight nomination.—
From the account of the proceedings
of the public meeting in Franklin it
ill he Mien that the delegates arc in-
rix'cUd to go for a straight Democrat
ic ticket. Elbert declares for " strict
adherence to principle." We learn
that the people of Franklin declare al
most as a unit, that between Greeley
and Grant they will uot vote at all.—
Hart expresses confidence in the Na
tional Democracy, but we know that
some of the delegates appointed are
strongly against Greeley. These evi
dences of public sentiment do not con
firm the judgment of the Watchman
correspondent.
Our advices from Banks show a
very strong anti-Greeley feeling there.
The letter of Dr. Phillips, from Hab
ersham—shows that there is protest
thero against Greeley. The evidences
thicken every day that the nomination
•if Greeley, or failure to nominate at
*d at Baltimore, will so chill the inter
est of thousands of Democrats in Geor
gia in political affairs, as to endanger
the loss of the State, and its relapse
under negro and carpet-bag rule.
Out of about fifty county meetings
reported, eighteen or twenty are
squarely against Greeley, and about
■>▼■■>< ssrywinuinWi XU OQVCl
al counties which have passed resolu
tions inclining to Greeley, there was
strong opposition—as in Muscogee. In
Troupe, the Reporter says there are at
least two to three hundred Democrats
^ho will not go to the polls if Greeley
is nominated. It will be so every
where.
Even if this feeling is not wise, and
granting that all Democrats ought to
abide the action at Baltimore—when
it is so evident that thousands cannot
be induced thus to abandon what they
deem the line of principle and of duty,
is it not supreme folly to hazard the
loss of the State by yielding to any
time serving expedient to beat Grant ?
While we must of course abide by
the action at Baltimore, we hold it to
be the duty of every’ Georgia Demo
crat to endeavor, by all proper means,
to prevent Baltimore from taking such
action as to endanger our State organ
ization. It would be more tolerable
to live under a Grant despotism four
years longer, tlian under a despotism
like Bullock’s for four weeks.
that the Convention that nominated
{ Abraham Lincoln, in 1860, adopted
| this resolution ns a fundamental item !
; in the Republican creed :
1 Rtmdml, that die maintenance, in
violate, of the rights of the States,
ami especially the right of each State
to order and control its own domestic
institutions according to its own judg- 1
ment exclusively, is essential to the bal
ance of powers on which the perfection
and endurance of our political fabric
depends, and we denounce the lawless
invasion of armed force of the soil of
any State or territory—»w> matter under
what pretext—as among the gravest of?
crimes.
From these citations in view of re
cent practices, it is evident that the
Republican party is to-day a very dif
ferent one from what it was a few years
iqjo.
Public Sentiment North.
A Washington dispatch to the Sa
vannah yews Kiys Senator Schurz has
been collecting important matter bear
ing upon the nomination of Greeley
and Brown, which will give anything
but comfort to their supporters. He
says also that Greeley stock has fallen
considerable thereabouts during the
past few days. Many Democrats who
were almost ready to shout for Gree
ley now admit that the chances for the
election of a straight-out Democratic
ticket were never better.
The country lias failed to respond j
to the forced enthusiasm manifested at •
Philadelphi a, while (i rant’s indiffer-,
ence to the fate of the Washington '
Treaty has arrayed almost the entire
moneyed interests of tho country"
against him. His letter of acceptance
is regarded as the weakest document
of the kind ever uttered. Even his
friends speak disparagingly of it.
Forney’s Press contains a threaten
ing editorial on the political sitnation
in Pennsylvania, clearly foresbadow-
ogo that Curtin
would return home to canvass the
State against Grant. The editorial
creates a doubt as to whether Forney
will stick to Grant.
The English Minister has again
changed front on the Alabama Claims
question, and officials now give
up all hope of the favorable termina
tion of pending negotiations.
The New Jersey and Delaware De
mocracy are squarely against Greeley.
J. Proctor Knott, one of the ablest
Democrats in the West, is against
Greeley. Audrew Johnson is mum.
The New England Democracy ap
pear to be generally in favor of Gree
ley.
Of 55 Republican papers in Min
nesota six are for Greeley. Of 23
Democratic papers one is opposed to
Greeley, and the rest will support him
if nominated.

Mr. Editor.—The people of the

swelled by the Blairs, Seymours, Lo

Vitality of Democratic Principles.
Another Massachusetts Apostate.
Hon. F. W. Bird, one of the most
prominent Republicans in Massachu
setts, made a speech at East Walpole
iu which he declared that he will here
after c i-operatc with the Democratic
party. The Radical party is too cor-
i upl tor him.
The Springfield Republican, one of
the ablest Republican pajiers in the
country, tints refers to the defection of
Mr. Bird :
Mr. Hint’s Walpole speech is cer
tain to excite general attention and
call out a wide variety of comment—
Here is a iuuii who enu truthfully say
•>f himself that he lias been a great
jrif o ’the Republican party in Mas-
svjVh-Hh. He now notifies’his neigh-
ls»rs, and the public at. large, that he
no longer belongs to that party ; that
he <j not expect to act with it here-
Such an announoement, com
ing from a man of Mr. Bird’s posi
tion and antecedents, would be a seri
ous matter at any time. Coming at
such a time as this, with our politics
in their, present condition, it is some
thing more thau an event—it is a sign.
It deserves all the attention it will re
ceive. No great amount of discern-1
ment is needed to determine the thing ]
signified. It is simply that the Re-
puolican party Is beginning to break
up; .that a political organization which
iws governed this country for twelve
yean, past, la now in imminent peril
ui iwMdta, if indeed it is not already
doomed. * * * * U rf -
fact, the process of disintregatiou has
already begun, and it is perhaps fur
ther advanced at this moment than
most, of os suspect. * * * Hie
The New York Evening Post, anti-
Greeley Liberal Republican, in the
course of a leading editorial on Sum -
ner’s late speech, says: “ We dissent
somewhat from Mr. Sumner, when he
Bays, in his late philippic, ‘ the De
mocracy is dissolving ; the Republi
can party is heing absorbed." There
is great vitality yet in the Democratic
party, notwithstanding all the theoreti
cal errors and practical mistakes of its
recent leaders, simply hecause the
questions which originally called it
into being are vital questions in our
government still; and the opinion
that upheld the party in victory and
defeat is wide-spread and strong op
inion still. No such permanent and
underlying opinion sustained the party
of the Federalists or the party of the
Whigs, or sustains the present Re
publican party; and while the form,
and even the name, of the Democratic
party may presently pass away, there
will be, there must be, a party that
will succeed to the heritage of the
fundamental Democratic ideas of
equality, decentralization, non-inter
ference, a hrad-money standard of
value, and taxation only for the sake
of the taxes to accrue from it, because
’these ideas are every one of them liv
ing forces in and for the Republic.
When Gen. Lee—the noblest man
God ever made—surrendered, the
Southern people bid an eternal adieu
to genuine republicanism and the Dem
ocratic tenets of Jefferson ; and upon
the 9th of July the Southern people in
convention with Northern scallawags
in Baltimore will consult, not as to the
fitness of Democratic principles, but
as to the manner of wresting the loaves
aud fishes from the ins, for the outs.
It is significant that the transcen
dental radicalism of the ins has brought
about division and schism, and to the
casual observer it appears that a moiety
of the jieople were drifting back to de
mocracy. But save for place and power
it is scarcely probable Mr. Greeley
and friends would Meek an alliance
with people he has grown old in de
faming. Their most outrageous slan
ders did very much to hasten the
troubles of the past.
Most respectfully I would suggest
that if the Southern people do not
intend to giveupnndforgetdemocracv,
that they send delegates instructed to
nominate a democrat. If the Atlanta
Convention thinks the people are irre
claimable for Jeffersonisro, and that
extent of territory, foreign vote, banks
and railroad rings, and conflicting in
terests require a government by one
man, one master, then coalesce, ce
ment with the one master, but not with
a party as foreign to our principles,
but favoring three or four hundred
Congressional masters. Let us call
tilings by right names. I am for the
nomination of a Democrat, upon the
principles of the constitution, and if I
fail I can, as when Lee surrendered,
feel that I am still A man. If a des
potism of numbers suits us best, let us
take Greeley, with his scallawags, for
our leaders. If we elect a constitu
tional monarchy, and hope by our aid
to make it such, let us join with Grant
