For the gratification of a friend and to
lut the public know the duty of Arbi
trators in such cases wo publish the fol
lowing form of tlio oath taken:
“You and each of you will well and
truly try the issue pending between the
Georgia & Alabama Rail Rond Company
and A. B. and give to said A. B. simh
damages as to you shall seem reasonable
and just upon the evidence produced to
you, and tlio examination you shall
make ; and in addition to the oath you

solemnly swear that you will in assessing
the damages take into consideration
and account the prospective value of

tention to tbo advertisement of Mr. M.
W. Cluskey, in another column, of his
now Text-Book, now otlbrcd for sale. Mr
Cluskey kindly placed upon out table a
copy of his work as soon as it was issued
from the press. Wo have had ample
time tocxamiiic it, and several occasions
to refer to it for information. Wa un
hesitatingly pronounce it one of the
most convenient and useful books of
reference that we have over mot with.
“It will lie recollected that Mr. Clus
key prepared a book for this last presi
dential campaign, which ho called the
Electoral Hand bou/:, and which was used
to great advantage in the canvass
throughout the country. Indeed, the
great popularity and utility of Ids first
work’ and the constant calls for it, oven
sinco tlio campaign lias been ended,
have suggested the plan and preparation
of this second one. His last work is
very complete, lie has rcarauged tho
whole matter of his first work, thrown
it into the encyclopedia form, added on
immense amount of matter, mndo a co
pious index to tlio work, by which any
thing wanted may lie found in a moment,
with clear and ample explanatory notes
of his own, by which every thing obsenro
s rondcred plain and intelligible.
“To tho politician, the editor, and all
who desire inlbvmation on tbo leading
party measures and topics of tlio times,
this hook will be found of tbo greatest
convenience nnd value. The author
lias performed his task with docided
judgement and ability, and wo trust
that ho will meet with a corresponding
remuneration for his labor."—Washing

The Georgia Minority*
W o find in tho Augusta Cbnstitutionalist
a card of explanation from tbo Georgia
Delegates who did not withdraw from
tlio late Convention in this city.
Mo give tlio material .portion as fol
lows t
After tbo adoption of tlio Platform by
the Charleston Convention (tho action
of tho Georgia Delegation in relation
thereto being us before mentioned, in
detail,) a majority of tlio Delegation
adopted a resolution to withdraw'from
the Convention. In tho absence of any
instruction* to that ctleot, the under
signed did not feel themselves at liberty
to boll the Convention, and thereby dis
rupt nnd disintegrate the Democratic
party, or to impair it* organization and
al | wwer before thu country; lull on
the contrary, felt bound to remain in
the Convention,and execute the trust
levolved upon them by the Convention
of Georgia, to the best of their ability,
for tho welfare and future prosperity
of that Democratic organization, which,
in our judgment, is so essentially neces
sary lor tho welfare and prosperity of our
country—more especially did we desire
to aid m the nomination of a Southern
man for tho next President of the
United States.
Accordingly, wo took our scats in tho
Convention, with tho firm resolve so to
ict, as in our judgment would best pro
mote) the honor, interests and harmony
of tho Democratic party, ns well ns tho
interests oT thoso who delegated us to
act for them, and in tlioir name, to sae-
• no principle, but to maintain rhdit
justice ana truth, as well us our poBti*
il integrity, and Hint of tho Democratic
party of Georgia—not believing it to bo
within tbo legitimate power of the ma
jority of the Delegation, bg their vote, to
dislranchiso tho Democratic party of
Georgia from being represented in the
Charleston Convention, by tho under-
igned Delegates, in the nhseuco of any
itch authority, or instructions, given to
them bv the Georgia Convention for
that purpose. The Convention, howov-
, by a vote of that body, determined
that, inasmuch ns tho Delegates from
gia were required to vote as a unit,
a mojoritg of the Delegates having,
by their vote, withdrawn Iroin the Con
vention, and having made that fact
known to that body, the majority could
not e.ed Dio ton votes of Georgia in tin*
Convention upon any question before
Wo have only to add, that if the
Democratic pnvty of Georgia is not rep
resented in the Charleston Convention,
it is not the fault ol* tho undersigned;
•re love done all that wo could do Jmn-
-ly, to perforin the duty, and e;:o*
the trust devolved upon us by the
March Convention. We therefore,
without further comment, report our
action in the. Charleston Convention to
a who conferred tlio trust upon us
to rcpic ciit them in that assembly.
