^oul^air 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 the party for some time past. ’ • , Tor.

Public Meeting in Jackson to be held in Atlanta June 26th. DEMOCRATS. June Pith, 1872. Sot 111 for fireeler by a <Jr*at Deal. 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. From a Habersham Democrat. Mr. Editor.—The people of the North decided in 1861 against Repub licanism. That majority was not only swelled by the Blairs, Seymours, Lo gans, Palmers, and the like, but like all renegades from the principles of their lives and *’ ’ ' *’ ical confreresi 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 —donate a Texas cattle-ranche, The following is the text of the force hill as amended and passed on the 10th.: i .i.it whenever in any county or parish in any Pongr—nhsl district there shall he ten citizens thereof of good standing, who prior to any regis tration of voters for Representative in , Congress, or prior to any election at which a Representative in Congress is , to be voted for, shall .make known in :jw!riting to'the Judge : dftbe-Circuit Court ofthe United States for the dis- j strict wherein such county or pari th ' is situated, their desire to have such registration, as supervisors of election, and the said court when opened by the mid Judge as required herein, shall therefrom and thereafter, and up to aud including the day following the day of the election, be always open for the transaction of business under this ! a-t and the (towers and jurisdiction ; l.oreby granted and conferred shall be exercised as well iu vacation as in term time, and a judge sitting at chambers shall have the same power and juris diction including the power of keep ing order and of punishing any con tempt of his authority as when sitting in tne court, and no person shall be appointed under this act as supervisor of election who is not at the time of his appointment a qualified voter -of the county, parish, election district, or voting precinct lor which he is ap- ! pointed.
