The Wheat Prospect—Tbo report of the Department of Agriculture, has refer ence to the condition-of the crop on the 1st c f April. The acreage Is about the sumo as last year. The per cent.

This Is a journalistic triumph In whieh all of its contemporaries can partako—because it Is an honor to the profession hero and else where. Mr. Sid Lewis of the T. k M. lias no use for the negro In “these digglns,” as the following illustrates: Our neighbor, the Thomasvllle Enter prise, is troubled because "a Boston vis itor has induced six ThomasYille house servants to go with .her to. the North.” The only bad foature’about the affair, in our opinion, is that the number depart ing is so small. The Boston visitor that can induce six hundred thousand of them to go from Georgia tc tho North will bo entitled to the everlasting gratitude of our people. The Convention, considering the Intense feeling between Bacon and Boynton men, did splendidly. The good temper prevail ing was a marked feature. It was no doubt the largest nominating convention ever held in the State, and every county was represented, we believe. Democrats are pugnacious, and often they lose tho main stake thereby, but they are quick to make friends when they look upon tiie wreck tiieir own hands have made. “All’s well, that ends well.” l’ETER COOPER, THE PHILANTHRO PIST.

Great honor and respect was shown him by all classes of people. He was in the 93k1 year of his life, and he w ill live in the memories of thousands who have enjoyed and will continue to enjoy, tho benefits "of his noble philanthrophy. HON. HENRY D. McDANIEL. Our readers are already familiar with the career of our democratic candidate for governor,, as a brave and heroic warrior during the struggle of the confederate states for their independence, as a skillful and profound lawyer, and as an acute higii- tnitiSed and honest statesman. We would not enlarge upon these traits of his char acter at present, and merely allude to them, as fully making up the picture of a man worthy of the highest honor in the gift or the people. He never shrunk from danger in the long and bloody contest, al ready referred to, and at Gettysburg and other fields of danger ranked as t he bravest among the brave. As a legislator he oc cupied tho front rank, and much of the most important legislation conducive to tho well lacing of our State, was inspired by his profound judgment and political sa gacity. He was a distinguished, leader in our first constitutional convention after the war, and served with marked ability, first in the representative branch of our legislature and subsequently In the Senate. In both he was tho originator of measures of great importance to the welfare of the State and people. Thus he combines all the elements to secure conlidenco as one fitted to protect and guide the destinies of our beloved commonwealth—experience, ability and fidelitx to all the interests or the people. With all theso well known and acknowledged attributes, his nomina tion f«.r Governor will be triumphantly rat ified at the polls. DEATH OF MR. K. P. FARKLL. Mr. Priestly Farell died’, very suddenly, at his residence, near the Asylum, last Tuesday night. Ho had discharged liis duti.s during the day, seemingly, in his usual health. After supper he com plained of a pain in his side, and lying down on his bed he fell asleep. After a short nap he awoke with a feeling of suf focation, and said he must get out or the "house to get'air; and went out-in tho yard, followed by his wife, where he immediate ly expired. Thus, without previous warn ing, he was called to pass through the dark valley and shadow of Death. Having liv ed a lira of integrity—walking patiently and blamelessly in his lot—with an abi ding faith in the goodness of God, ho laid down Life's burdens, for rest, eternal. Mr. Farell was a faithful soldier during the war. He came from Whitfield county to the Asylum, where he obtained employ ment, several years ago. He served the Institution in many capacities—discharg ing every duty assigned him with intelli gent fidelity. He was 44 years of ago; a Oampbclllto Baptist in faith and practice; quiet and unobtrusive in liis manners; kind and affectionate fit liis disposition; and en joyed the respect and esteem, of all who know him. A sufferer from heart disease, this pale, quiet man carried In his breast a constant reminder of the uncertainty of life, which made him peculiarly gentle and kind and considerate of the feelings of others. Ho leaves a wife and four children, all girls, to mourn their Irreparable loss. He was buried in tho city cemetery, on Thursday last—Rev. J. M. Stoney officia ting. m TO THE PEOPLE OF GEORGIA. Rooms State Executive Committee of the Democratic Party, Atlanta, April, 13._To the Fcoplc of Georgia: By unani mous vote of the State Democratic con vention. recently held, tbo Hon. Henry D! McDaniel, or the county of Walton, was presented to ymu as a candidate In every way worthy of the highest office within, your gift. The deliberations of the convention, continuing through two days, were characterized by exceptional concord and good fellowship, and it is con fidently hoped that the choice made will be ratified by you at the polls with entire unanimity. In accordance with the proclamation of the Governor, the election will be held on Tuesday, the 24th day of this month. It does not now appear that there will be an opposing candidate, but it is, never theless, most important that a full vote should be polled. This is necessary to keep well together the party organization, for we cannot foretell how soon every Democratic vote may be needed. The object of this communication is to urge that the polls be opened at every precinct In the State, and that as large a vote as possible be polled. The State executive committee urges upon all local commit tees, county and city, to [give this mat ter their prompt and energetic attention, inasmuch as the time before the election is so short that the responsibility for efficient work must necessarily devolve upon such organizations. Henry Jackson Chairman. Mrs. L. F. Summons, Wadley, Ga., says: “Brown’s Iron Bitters cured me of weakness, nervous depression and low spirits." Old Times at the Old Capital. A FAMOUS ELECTORAL COLLEGE. UNWRITTEN HISTORY. Perhaps there never was In the history of Georgia an electoral college called to gether at Milledgeviile, to cast the vote of Georgia for the Presidency and Vice Pres idency of tho United States, more ablo than the one that assembled at Milledge ville, November 29th, 1852. The ticket elected was as follows: Wilson Lumpkin, H. V. Johnson, Thos. M. Forman, Richard H. Clark, Henry G. Lamar, Hugh A. Haralson, Joseph E. Brown, W. L. Mitchell. R. W. Flournoy, William Schley. Mr. Forman could not get hero and Hr. Fort was appointed in his place. The vote was cast solid for Franklin Pierce, for President, and Wil liam R. King, for Vice President. The writer was chosen Secretary of tho col lege. Upon the ticket were two ex-Governors viz: Wilson Lumpkin, then about eigh ty years of ago, and William Schley, a few years younger. Theso aged and distinguished gentlemen were tho guests of Dr. Tomlinson Fort. All of tho col lege were prominent men at that tirno. The youngost man on the college was Richard H. Clark, now of Atlanta, aged then only 23 years, tho next youngest, Jo seph E. Brown, aged 31. An amusing incident or two will be in place at this time—without the tinge of offense In the relation, be assured my kind reader. A Messenger had to be chosen to carry the vote of the college to Washing ton City. R. J. Cowart and Manson Stell were candidates. They had made a can vass of the college, and found that on tho first ballot, each would - receive four (4) votes. Georgia had (10) ten electoral votes at that time. Tills tie voto would make the result hang on tho vote of the two old Governors, “to hear from.” Neither would commit himself, and neither said he had any favorite. In the condition of things Cowart and Stell compromised and the friends of both voted for Stell, who re ceived 8 votes on the first ballot, and was elected. The reason of the reticence of the two old Ex-Governors was then first made known, when It appeared that John Lumpkin, (the ex-Gov’s Son.) had received (2) two votes; but it was too late for John, Stell had been elected. It was. apparent that Gov. Lumpkin thought, among so many candidates, (for there were just (70) seventy willing to have the position) there would be no election on the first ballot, and that the other electors, seeing that his son John was voted for, would elect him In de ference to himself and Gov. Schley. And so they would have done, (we know) if Gov. Lumpkin had been advanced enough in modern ways to have had his friend Schley say as much to the other delegates. But they scorned such means. A more pleasant Incident Hi this connec tion we relate. Gov. Schley was almost as much of a fossil as Gov. Lumpkin, but was of more quiet demeauor and amiable temper. When tho college cauiA to make out the accounts for mileage, each mem ber counted by the way of tho railroads. It came to Hugh Haralson's time to speak. Said that elegant gentleman—“let’s see— so many miles from LaGrangu to Atlanta —90 many froiy Atlanta to Macon—so ma ny from Macon to Milledgeviile.” As soon as he said that, old man Schley said— “when 1 first came to Milledgeviile, from Augusta, forty years ago, It was ninety miles, and I don’t suppose it’s any more now.” Tills coming Just after Haralson’s schedule »f travel, brought Gov. Lumpkin up to liis friend Schley's support. Theffwo kept together as much as possible, and as the ladles say,.“their devotion to each oth er was beautiful.” What made Gov. Schley’s computation or mileage more remarkablo was, as we all knew, that because of the wash fn the Central Road in the vicinity of Millen, the good old man had come to Milledgeviile, via Atlanta and Macon, and really traveled each way (311) three hundred and eleven miles, with the consequent expense. Gov. Schley was a very honest man, and It was this feature in his character, adhered to rigidly, that defeated him, many years before, for a re-election to the Executiye chair. Gov. Howell Cobb presided over the Ex ecutive Mansion, and the State, at the time we write of. • We democrats had been split up smartly by politics, but Gov. Cobb, in his big-hearted, wliple-souled way, asked us all of t he college—(even to ye secreta ry) to dine with him at tho Mansion. The writer had opposed him so bitterly for Governor against McDonald that he felt a shyness in coming in front of the great Georgian. But we mustered np the requi site courage and if there ever was a sour dinner in Goorgla, in a public way, that ripened into sweeter fruit3 this poor pen can’t remember it. The two venerablo ex- Governors sat down with us all about 4 p. m. Gov. Cobb presided, with Hugh A. Haralson on his right. About 9 p. m. Gov. Schley said toGov. Lumpkin- “Wilson, we can’t keep up with the boys, let’s go home;” an.l home they went. The pleas ant company lingered until midnight. The best stories were told, and never a delegate fell under the table. *Our principal regret was the absence of Richard H. Clarke who had been detained by high water and got in too lato to join in the union festivities at the Ex. Mansion. Had HE been there morning would have been far advanced ere all of us got homo. Hon. T. M. Forman got to the city on Wednesday evening after tho college had closed Us labors. The high water com pelled him to travel hundreds of miles out of his usual course to this city, and he came in through Hancock county on horse back. DEMOCRATIC CONVENTION. The Democratic State convention assem bled at the capitol in Atlanta, on Tuesday last, 10th inst., at 12 o’clock, M. Captain Harrj’ Jackson (<x>k the chair, as chair man of the State Democratic Executive Committee. Gen. Young nominated Col. Cbas. C. Jones of Richmond, for tempora ry chairman, and he was elected without opposition, and returned his thanks.— Messrs. Mark Hardin and H. H. Cabiness were made secretaries. On calling the roll 137 counties reported delegates present.— Hon. Charles T. Crisp, of Sumter county, was unanimously chosen permanent Pres- dent of the Convention. Messrs. Jackson, Colley and Lamar were appointed to con duct him to the chair. Judge Crisp ad dressed the convention as follows: “Gentlemen of the Convention ; I feel that I shoui.i give some expression to the kind ness you have shown in imposing upon me this unsolicited honor. I feel that it is due to you as well as to myself that, in the discharge of the duty your partiality has assigned to me, whatever my personal feelings may be as to one candidate or the other, I shall handle tiie scales exactly even. It shall be my purpose then, as far as in me lies, to so conduct myself that upon the adjournment of the convention no man ean shy that his candidate has suffered injury at the hands of tho chair. (Appiause.l It argues well for the future of this convention that there has been no contest over this position. As you know I can sincerely say it was not sought, it was unsolicited, surely in view of the interests involved, in tiie interest of the state wo all love, there should characterize the deliber ations of thts body a spirit of harmony. As lias been sai.l by the temporary chair man this is an extraordinary occasion. We are surrounded by the emblems of grief; we have met here because Georgia’s great statesman has been stricken down as ho would have liked to fall—in the discharge of duty. We have met to nominate a suc cessor. Permit mo to appeal to you now to proceed to that nomination in a spirit of kindness. Let us act as brothers. How ever much we may favor particular men. however earnest we may be in the cause of our friends, let us remember that we owe more to trie great state we love than to any friends. tAppl au sm) Let us all re member that tiie first great purpose of this convention should be to rmtke such a nomination as that tiie democratic party may In tho future, as It has been in tho past, be triumphant in the election by an overwhelming majority . I say then, thanking you again, and ex pressing great doubt of mv ability to dis charge tho trust you have imposed upon me, but at tho same time announcing an honest intention to do my duty—I say in conclusion .hat, while we are here, between us all let there be peace and harmony and good will.

McDaniel, the nominee of the Democratic party of Georgia, is 46 years of age. Ho was born in Walton county, where lie now resides. He was a member of the State Convention In 1861, and or tho lower house of the leg islature in 1873, and State Senator for 3 terms, in all of which positions he served well and faithfully. In the oelebrstod im peachment trial, when Comptroller Gold smith was before the Senate, Mr. MeDan- iel asked to be excused from voting on the ground of relationship. In the famous Norweod-Colquitt contest he was a Nor wood man. lie has an impediment in his speecli which detracts from his orato ry, but lie Is as sound a man—with a Joe Brown judg-ment attachment—as can be found in Georgia. He is a well read man, posted on every question of State impor tance, of incorruptible integrity and puri ty of morals. He is in tho prime of man hood, comfortable in pecuniary citeum- stances and will make Georgia a good Governor.

The hallotings continued with but slight variation through Tuesday and all day Wednesday. We copy from the Post-Ap- pral as follows: This was Thursday morning at 9:30. The eighteenth ballot was about to be caiied when Mr. Walsh offered a resolu tion that a committee of three be appoint ed to wait upon Messrs. Boynton aud Bacon and request tiie withdrawal of their names from before the convention. Ex-Gov. Smith thought tho resolution too harsh. Mr. Revill, of Meriwether, made a stir ring speech m favor or the resolution Speechifying became general. Mr. Butler moved to amend by adding the names of Cook and McDaniel. Adopt ed. Mr. Guorry offered as a substituted the appointment of a Conference Committee to consist of six Boynton men, six Bacon men, four McDaniel men and two Cook men. The substitute was accepted and was adopted by a voto of 203 to 146. Mr. Jackson, of Fulton, moved that a recess till 12 :Sj bo taken, in order to give the friends of the candidates au opportu nity to select their members of tho Con ference Committee. At 12:30 ths Convention reassembled and the committee was announced as fol lows r Boyntonites—General P. M. li. Young, R. T. Dorsey, M. C. Pulton. C. C. Jones, A. P. Parham and F. I). Dismuke.

Cook’s—Dupont Guerry an.l W. H. Wil lis. Convention adjourned to 3:30 p. m. At half past three Chairman Crisp call ed tho house to order. Two hours were spent in humorous speeches, while the Convention awaited the action of the committee. At six the committee reported amid j deafening applause tneir recommendation ] or the Hon. Henry D. McDaniel ol Walton. I The friends of Messrs, Boynton and Ba con withdrew tho names of these two can didates and tho report or the committee was unanimously adopted. Mr. Jones, of Richmond, paid a glow ing tribute to Governor Boynton. General P. II. B. Youug, of Bartow, said that the friends of Governor Boynton nev er voted for a purer and nobler man, but that they did not object to being defeated by such a patriot as Henry D. McDaniel. Messrs. Eason, of Jelfair, Guerry, of Sumter, and Jackson, of Fulton, were ap pointed a committee of three to watt upon the nominee and bring him before the Convention. Thanks were rendered tiie Chairman and Secretary of the Convention for their well performed duties. • Mr. McDaniel was then presented. Ho spoke with feeling and patriotism an.l was frequently applauded. Mr.Cabaniss, of Monroe, offered a resolu tion that the Convention commend Gov ernor Boynton’s administration. • With eb.eors, passed. Colonel Charles C. Jones was appointed a committee of one to wait’ upon ex-Gov- ernor Charles J. Jenkins and express the Convention’s cond. .lenco upon his extreme Illness and hope for liis speedy recovery. Convention adjourned sine die. A dispatch to the Augusta News, says: “The committee of eighteen selected by the Convention endeavored to bring in a dark iiorse, and Indeed came near winning with Hon. Geo. T. Barnes, of Augusta. Barnes was the first man voted for by the committee after the regular candidates received a vote, ne got the solid Boynton vote (6) and one or two others of the com- mittece, barely missing a majority and the nomination. Judges fteose, Lawton, Simmons and Crawford, were then ballotted for, but none of these gentlemen received over eight votes. McDaniel’s name was formally with drawn in committee, and the vote then stood nine and nine between Bacon and Boynton. The excitement was then great, as each of the two prominent candidates only lacked one vote to decide the issue. At this point McDaniel was again put up, and received, in addition to liis owh four votes, the six votes of Boynton and the two votes for Cook. This gave Mc Daniel twelve votes and the nomination.

Fierce old north wind has striven hard to stifle the approach of spring, but borne on the wings of thousands of birds and so laced by the perfumes of ten thousands of flowers, the warm months advance. The prospect of a good small grain crop is brightening, though there is fear of rust in the wheat. The stand of corn is an average, and the acreage is large. Peaches are all right—they have weath ered the storm. There Is an unprecedented use of guano around here. The District has three flourishing schools taught by Mr. M. Arnold, Miss Helen Rice and Miss Emma Stevens. Messrs. W. P. Stevens, J. W. Glenn and N. R. Blood worth, are building a saw mill near here.

His treatment will soon appear in ono of tiie medical journals.

A Terrible Accident.—Yesterday, City Marshal Joyner received a telegram call ing him to Bonham, Texas, upon a sad mission. Three years ago Miss Janie W. Joyner, his sister, a youug lady well known and highly esteemed in Atlanta, was married to Mr. Randolph Neal of Serious Results of a Runaway Horse. —While Superior court was in session hero last week Senator DulJignon, of Mll- ledgoviUe. sustained a very painful inju ry, the result of a runaway horse. On Friday, just before court convened, Col. D. and Mr. Henry Clay, ot Toombsboro, went out for a drive behind Rut Butler’s spirited horse. In descending the hill, near Mr. J. It.

A London dispatch, of th 0 ioth, statoa that It is understood that one of the men who participated In the murder of Lord Cavendish and Secretary Burke, will de cline making any defence as he reels there is no hope of escaping conviction. The man referred to, it is stated, Is Patrick Delany. John O’Connor Power, member from Mayo moved a resolution in tho House of Commons to appropriate *5,000,000 of pounds sterling, for promoting emigra tion or home colonization. Mr. Power’s motion was rejected, though, under the provisions of tho scheme, the Treasury would sustain no loss. Judge O’Brien intimated to Mr. Sullivan that he would be called upon to assist Dr. Webb Adams in the defence of Brady, whose trial wqs postponed for another day. Mr. Parnell Is confined to his houso by Illness, and will probably not bo able to actively participate in political matters for some time. The trial of Joe Brady, on the charge of murdering Lord Cavendish and Mr. Burke began on the morning of the 11th. The case for the crown was opened by Mr. Porter. Farrell and Carey gave the same testi mony they did some time ago, upon the the arrest of the prisoners, Porter said that the men who had instigated tho mur der, had fled to foreigh lands and that the crown, in this case, had been compelled to provide means for defending Brady from this terrible charge. None of the testimo ny, of Farrell or Carey, is reported but on the arrest they implicated Brady as a par ticipant in the murder. The Elective Council (Ireland) bill, em bodying Healy’s scheme for local govern ment In Ireland, was defeated by the House of Commons on the 11th. It was in troduced by Mr. Barry, member for Wex ford county, in the absence of Mr. Hoely, who is in prison. Trevelyan, Chief Secre tary for Ireland, opposed it. Mr. Parnell who was present only for a brief time , charged Trevelyan with turning his l>ack upon his former principles. He and many >f his colleagues, bail supported a similar bill, brought In by Dr. I-aac Butt, when the tortes were In power. Mr. Parnell said: He sincerely hoped that this ques tion, which had already provoked«uch ex tended controversy, would now be left to a reformed parliament and to a very differ ent ministry. THE TRIAL OF JOE BRADY. The testimony against Bra.ly is that on ly of informers Carey the informer ad mitted that he was one of the prime mov ers in the murder of Mr. Burke, but he wa3 under compulsion during the time di rectly preceding the event. Being closely interrogated by the Counsel on this point, he finally admitted that he was not under compulsion when he pointed out Mr. Burke to the assassins and urged the mur derers to remember that ihe man dad In a gray’ suit was Mr. Burke. The Counsel for the defence brought out in sharp con trast to points made by the crown that Carey drove with his children to the door of a church in Fltzharriseab; on the 6th or May, the day of the murder, that he was the first man to suggest that daggers be used and that he afterwards suggested that the daggers with which the crime was committed should be put on exhibition as national relics. He said lie had been in formed by Mr. Mallon, chief of tiie detec tives, that if ids evidence should be given freely to the State and should be confirm ed by that of the other witnesses, he and his brother would be pardoned for their share in the conspiracy. This statement caused some sensation. His attention be ing called to tiie trifling details which had been discovered lately, relating to tho movements of Fitzharris’ cabin the park on the day or the murder, and which hail not been given by the witness, Carey re marked quietly, but with evident signifi cance, that lie had so far only answered the questions put to him bv the counsel, and that he could, if unrestricted and if ho desired, tell a great deal more. The cross- examination of Carey was very severe and searching. The counsel for "the defense said in remarking on the witness’ testi mony, that Carey’s hands were bteeped in blood, Carey said: ‘ That is not true.” Subsequently Carey said he was only tell ing hair or what he knew and lie was’ more friendly to tiie counsel for tiie defense than the counsel himself was aware of; for ho iiad told the latter to bear in mind that ho was not telling everything that he knew agaiu6t his client. The counsel vehement ly protested that it was his wish to havo no friendly Intercourse with thd witness and no favor from him. Michael Kavan- nah who drove the car in which the mur derers rude, was then called to the stand. He repeated his-former evidence In sub stantially thesame language. He made a material amendment to it however, by say ing it was Bin ith,. not D.-lauey, whom ho drove to the scene or the murder with Carey. His statement made before was a mistake. Ilis testimony showed that It was Bra.ly who directed him where to drive and designated the placo for him to wait for the murderers on May 0th. Joseph Smith, another one of the accused men wno turned informer repeated the story of his doings in Phoenix Park, on tho 6th of May, as related by James Carey at tho plelirni- nary hearing. A man by'the name of Godden, tho Phmoix Park Hanger, and .a son of James Carey, testified on the part of the prosecution. The latter deposed concerning the search for tii» knives used by the murderers, the result of which ho said was reported to Brady. After tho physicians testified us to the nature of tho wounds, the case ior the pr.>s(iouUon was closed. The case for tiie defence was then opone.1 and the defence undertook to show an alibi for tho prisoner, Muilett.
