Snturdny MornlnR, July O. 1807.
Personal,
Wo wore pleased lo weloomo lo our sanctum
yesterday alteration, that gallant soldier, gentle
man and scholar, Gen. A. It. WRtoitT, editor of
the Chronicle d Sentinel, otm ol the staunchest
journals in all Georgia. The General aaserls
positively that he was not ouool tlm " delegates
lioin Richmond " lo our meeting on the Fourth,
lint only canto up to snult a little ol our pure
mountain air. The “ ever memorable ” found
him at Dalton, where lie " spoke a piece " to
the good people of that locality, llo lell last
evening for Augusta.

The base ball match on the 4th ol ,lnly,»be-

ami the Gato City Club, of Atlanta, resulted it:
the defeat ol the former. The game stood
73 to 24. Tito game lasted two hours and fifty
minutes.
A myth !
The case of the City of Atlanta its. Col. Far
row and W. S. Bassford, Esq., the latter gentle
men being arraigned lor violating a certain city
ordinance which requires parties holding public
meetings to give previous notice to the Marshal,
was called yesterday morning in the court ol
His Honor the Mayor. It nppears, however,
that they were not guilty of the ollense charged,
the ordinance being so framed ns to apply only
to tlie rollers of such meetings, Hie which both
gentlemen disclaimed having done. They were,
therefore, dismissed.
The question then arose as to ioho did call the
meeting on Tuesday night last for the purpose
ol appointing delegates from Fulton county to
the great State Republican Convention of the
Stale of Georgia (so called,) which assembled in
this city on Thursday last. And the question
was asked in vain! The gentlemen arraigned
did not do it, nor had they any knowledge of the
source from whence tho call came.
Mr. Markham being present in the court room,
was asked by the Marshal it he could throw any
light on the subject, but was not entirely certain
that he could—would “ refresh his memory."
All ot them saw the cull in the Doily Opinion—
that was enough—they went I There are three
mysteries which it seems are henceforth to puz
zle the world: Tho author ot the "Junius Let
ters,” Who struck William Pottersou, Esq. ?”
and “ Who called the Republican meeting of
Tuesday night last ?"
July 4, 1807.
The celebration of this day in Atlanta was
surrendered almost entirely—if not wholly so—
by our citizens to the negro population, who ap
peared upon our streets iu a high state of en
thusiasm in immense throngs from early morn to
a late hour in the evening. The black popula
tion of the adjacent towns, villages, and rural
districts, were in large numbers emptied into the
(ity, tho lormer by the various lines of railway,
and tlie Intter by such modes of conveyance as
I iy within their reach. Tlierclore, that class of
Atlanta’s inhabitants being largely augmented
by their brethren from a distance, tho city was
incompletely invested by negroes of every age,
size, sex, shade, complexion, shape and color as
were certain Egyptian provincial localities over
whelmed with locusts, of which we read in Holy
Writ. From such a cause, tlie larger part ot
this community proper, and more especially the
ladies, were induced to remain in-doors, feeling
that the “Fourth of July” ot their fathers,
around which so many golden memories linger,
and lor which they yet cherish a profound rev
erence, lias been wiested from them by a band
ot political Judases, and handed over to the
special keeping of their former slaves. It was
not in a spirit of anger that the community ot
Atlanta—thoso “to the manor horn”—ami
whose past associations give them the right to
tcel lor the honor of their city—looked from their
windows upon the scenes of 'Thursday. It was
not with hate that they saw tlie jubilant attitude
occupied by that humble class ol persons who
alone marched under the ample (olds of our
country’s broad stars and stripes, for they wish
them no harm, und would not deny them n sin
gle right to which they are entitled socially, po
litically, or legally ; for our people readily un
derstand that the negro is not tlie responsible
party, but that his exultation at the humiliating
and helpless position now so unhappily
occupied by thoso who have been made his
superior by tlie great Creator, results from the
t -itchiugs of native apostates and Northern ad
venturers. As much was to he expected of their
humble understaudings, and it is not wonderlul
that they have been easily duped by designing
men into the belief that the whole city and coun
try belongs to them, and that the day which once
it was tlie white man’s privilege to honor and re
spect is now, together with tlie national Hug,
their own exclusive property I Much an aspect
did the day to which we refer wear, and we re
pent that it was not iu a spirit ot anger, lint of
sad regret, that our citizens witnessed tlie won
derfully and revollingly metamorphosed condi
tion worn by our home ufliiirs on Thursday last.
At nil early hour in tlie morning there was u
huge assemblage at the City Hall, more than
three-lourtha of the persons present lining nc-
gioes. This assemblage was known as ^“Re
publican State Convention,” where a temporary
organization was effected by calling Col. A. W.
Stone, of Savannah, to the Chair, and apolnting
S.W. Beard, Esq., (colored) of Augusta, and P. M.
Shiehly, Esq., ol Home, to act as Secretaries.—
The chairman, alter expressing his thanks for
the honor done liim, took his seat. Business
was then commenced by the appointment ol a
committee ou credentials, and a committee ol two
from each Congressional District to report per
manent ollicers for tho convention. These two
uumittees were composed of about halt whites
and half blacks. Col. Farrow made a motion
that Gen. Duan, Judge Advocate ol the Ttlird
.Military District, be invited to a seat on tlie
aland, where he was received by great enlliu-
iasin. Tho delegates to tho Convention were
then requested to come lorward und sign their
names as the counties were called in alpbabeti-
ul order, wlten it was found that about sixty-
■iglit counties were represented, ne/irly all of
idiom were negroes.
The committee appointed to select permanent
"tiicers lor the organization made a report with
'he Hon. Mayor ot Augusta, Foster Blodgett,
E«q., ns President, und two Vice Presidents from
ueh Congressional District, about half tlie latter
ring negroes. The Secretaries are three iu
number, one ot which is tho negro Beard, ol
Augusta. The President, Air. Blodgett, in as
suming the duties of his distinguished position,
"mile a lew lulicitous remarks, aud declared the
Convention organized, and ready for the consitl
cration ot such matters as might come before it.
A low resolutions were passed, committees up-
poliiled, and minor matters discussed, when tho
Convention adjourned to 4 o’clock, P. M., in
outer that the light of its radiant counte
nance might be shed over tho Assemblage
at the East end oi tho City nail, where
the mass meeting was to take place, anil where
had arrived, iu a stale of organization, and in
martial array, each one headed by a banner, the
memliers ol tlie live negro loyal lcaguo clubs of
this city, onuof which, ns we saw from llio ban
ners, exists iu each municipal want. They had
marched through the streels, preceded by a hand
of music, under the direction of mounted mar
shals of the day, whose dusky persons were gaily
decked with rosettes and red sashes, and whose
steeds plunged, reared, snorted and champed
their hits miully at the inspiriting music sweetly
discoursed by the negro hand from Macon. The
banners in the procession, after it reached Hie
City Hall, were arrayed around the speaker's
stand, and were inscribed ns follows:
I'lllsT Waiid- Stevens' Union Republican Club.--Motto:
bet's make friends; vote for the Convention ; if you do
old “Thud.” can’t Confiscate.
Second Wano— TAotnas' Union Republican Club —
Motto: For President in 1808, George II. Thomus, of
Virginia. Through him wo expect a New Era.

The Death or Slavery, July 4Ui, ’07.
The stand was occupied by a motley assem
blage of white men aud negioes, tho whole har
monizing and fraternizing so affectionately and
beautifully that tho scene was positively affect
ing—especially to the olfactories! On the ban
quet le above the speaker’s stand wero placed tlie
hand,the patriotic gentlemen occupying Uic stand
being thus thrown in a more perilous position
than were tlie gallant “ six hundred," for there
were “ niggers to tho right ot them “ niggers
to the left of them ”—niggers in tront of them ”
—aud niggers over them! A blast of “ Hail Co
lumbia ” from tlie hand preceded the reading ol
tlie Declaration ol Independence by the delegate
from Homo, Mr. Shiebley, during which the
“Goddess of Justice" on tlie City Hall spire put
on an occasional wry face, and turned up her
nose, hut whether it was in consequence of tlie
farce being enacted below, or on account ot the
tainted atmosphere, is not known. Everything
considered, she stood it very well, and deserves
to lie congratulated on not dropping her scales!
Ceil. Win. McKee Dunn, Judge Advocate of
the Third Military District, who occupied a
prominent position on the speaker’s stand, arose
and introduced the orator of the day, the Hon.
A. W. Tenney, of New York, hut this was evi
dently a misnomer as applied to that gentleman,
for there were so many orators of tlie day that
it is doubtful if wo can spare space to name them
all. The gentleman from New York was fol
lowed by the Rev. J. II. Simms, (negro) from
Savannah, who has just returned from Boston.
That reverend wooly head was followed by
Simeon W. Beard, oi Augusta, (do.) who put the
linisliiug strokes on the grand State Republican
Mass Meeting!
The Convention re-assembled in Hie afternoon,
when Col. Farrow, chairman of tlie Committee
on Resolutions, made a report iu which was em
braced several " whereases ” and a series of res-
clutions which pledged their varlously-hucd
convention to do all sorts of pretty thiogs, and
t> maintain the "free aud legal rights ol all
men,” though we believe uo allusion was made lo
I tie lact that our Mayor and Aldermen are not
allowed to register! We shall expect our col
ored fr iends to straighten out that little irregu
larity !
Col. A. W. Stone, well-known in this commu
nity as a citizens in ante and in helium days,
made a move that the thanks of tlie convention
be tendered to the “ orator of the day," the Hon.
A. W. Tenney, which was done; while the Rev.
Mr. Turner, from Macon, offered a similar reso
lution, so ns lo make certain of tlie fact that the
convention really left under obligations to that
gentleman. There was some other business
transacted ol an unimportant character, when tlie
Republican State Convention adjourned sine tlie.
The closing scenes of the grand occasion, which
wc hut imperfectly portray, transpired at night.
A meeting took place at the City Hall ut8o’clock,
which was addressed by M. Hascltein, T. I.
Campbell and Colonel A. W. Stone, to whom,
says a city cotemporary, “ a portion ol the au
dience listened patiently." Questioning the pro
priety of attending such n demonstration after
night, we kept away, hut from a sale distance
witnessed the grand pyrotechnic display which
ushered out with brilliant celid a day long to be
remembered by our citizens, especially such us
wore caught without n supply of franyipanni!
