SPIRIT OF TIIE DEMOCRATIC PRESS. It is gratifying as well as encouraging to observe the spirit in' which-the unfavorable result of tho late Shite elections is generally received 'by tho Democratic papers of tho South. With very few exceptions,'fh£ defeat of the partyof the Constitution and civil law in those States where we had so confidently looked, if not for a triumph,' at least for an in crease ,of the Conservative strength, is contem plated with calmness and patient fortitude. Taking" . that defeat afi the judgment of the people of those States in favor of despotio over Constitutional government; and recog nizing our utter helplessness in opposition to the will of the majority, which is now regard ed^ paramount to the Constitution and jaws. —our press, speaking for the Sputheni peo ple, express their determination quietly to abide the result—leaving the issue of the fate of the Republic in the hands of those who claim by right of might to direct and con trol its destinies; meantime directing their thoughts and efforts to the promotion of peace, order, good government and"'indus trial prosperity of our Southern States. So far as the intelligence and virtue of our peo ple is left free to control and direct the affairs of our local governments; it will be patriotically exerted for the preservation of what remains to nsof the blessings of civil liberty, undera white man’s government, and for the maintenance of the supremacy of the white race. To this end, we of Georgia must abate nothing of oar devotion to the principles of the Consti tution, as expressed ; in the platform now contended for by the [Democratic par ty of the Union, and in the coming elec tion, cost the vote of the State for Seymour and Blais by such a majority as will convince the Democrats of the North that in the main tenance of the principles of the Constitution al Union, Georgia is with them in the day of their defeat as she was in the day of their su premacy. In this connection we give extracts from several leading Southern journals, as exhibit ing the temper of the press: [From the Atlanta Intelligencer.] Be the result, however, what it may, Geor gia must be saved from sinking into the Radi cal inadslrom that may swallow up other Northern, Western and Southern States. She, at least, will cost her vote for Seymour and Blair, list other States do what they may. In this there is at least some consolation. But ‘'while-there is life there is hope,” and we still “hope on, hope ever,” till the day of de liverance from Radical misrule and oppres sion shall come, as it surely will come, if the teachings of history embrace anything that is either truthful or reliable, y [From tlie Columbus Enquirer.] We must confess to much disappointment . at the results of the State elections in Penn sylvania, Ohio and Indiana. The Democracy have made an energetic and gallant fight, but have not been successful in either of these important States. But they will not despair—neither should we. They will go into the contest for the November election with the same high resolution to do their duty, and there are good reasons to hope with better results.

The results before us only serve to confirm these convictions. . In view of the mischiefs which have been engendered by violated faith, by war, and by the wide-spread dishonesty which pervades the public service, it is very doubtful if any other Government be practicable to thisde- momlized land but a vigorous and impartial despotism. If the choice of the despotism be left to us, for many reasons weshould pre fer that of one man to that of a .mob. The many-headed tyrant is ever heartless and cruel, the one may happen to be wise, patrio tic, generous and benignant, and he may take pride and pleasure in promoting tho happmess of all his subjects. With the de parture of free government, this, at least, is our best chance. ■ Both the parties at the North, have profess ed that their object was to promote the wel fare of the South. One or both may have been very much mistaken in. the means em ployed to secure that end. Whilst the war waged between them, all the blows from both sides fell upon our head; and, at any rate, we may hope for some relief from any settlement [From the Nashville Bonner.J The action just over, across the border, was a mere skirmish fire to that which is to fob low.

Journal.] The election returns were received in this city with a feeling, not wholly devoid of in terest, but with composure and fortitude. The capacity of our citizens has been too thoroughly tried to admit of entire discom fiture. They feel that the Democratic cause in which they are so thoroughly interested : has not received that support at the bands of: their Northern brethren the exigencies of the times merit; yet their determination to will and to do has been increased tenfold, and the Democrats having suffered defeat in tho States where they thought victory assured, they are determined more than ever that North Carolina shall redeem herself and send such cheering news to the North that they must and will elect Seymour and Blair. North Carolina must east her vote for the candidates of truth and honor, and if on the 3d day of November her Northern sisters, or even a portion of them, will but follow her example, all will be well yet, and we shall triumph.

We publish in another column, from tho Memphis Avalanche, the report of the “Com mittee of Correspondence,” appointed by a public meeting of the citizen of Memphis on the 8tli inst., on the subject of memorializing Congress to amend the bill now before that body, so as to secure to the proposed South ern Pacific route the privilege and aid asked by its projectors. The project is one in which the people of every State east of the Mississippi is deeply interested, and shonld claim the attention especially of those identi fied with the Railroad interests of the South. We recommend the able report to the consid eration of our readers. Our participation in national politics is closed. The fiat has gone forth, that we are a conquered people, bereft of all rights, enti tled to no voice or opinions, and subject to the will of our conquerors. Upon the pursuit of our industiy in the banding more closely together of all of our true men, and in a de termined effort to protect ourselves, as far as. possible, from, future dangers by the ma chinery of our State governments, depends our only hope of safety. We are to-day the most utterly friendless people on the face, of the earth. Here in Georgia we must bestir ourselves with increased ardor. Though it may in”no wise affect the general result, let us save our State. Let it not be said that while submitting, as best we may, to the cruel and unjust verdict of a maddened rabble, we gave it further endorsement. We have intel ligence, pluck, endurance, and all of the manly virtues that ever distinguished any people. These will protect ns, if proporly used, in a measure, for the present. If nour ished, sustained and cultivated, they will bring us triumph and deliverance in the fu ture. [From the Macon Telegraph.] It is important for the South, no matter what the general result may be, that she should vindicate the supremacy of the White race by casting her electoral votes for Sey mour. Let us show the North the folly of at tempting to control these States by negro suffrage. [From the Atlanta Constitution.] - The Dembcihtic partywduldbe recreant to its history had- it not sufficient recuperative power to endure a dozen such reverses, aud yet, undismayed, summons its forces to battle •again. It has repeatedly been overtaken by disaster in the past, each time gathering wis dom from experience, but to renew the con- fiict-with increased vigor and energy. [From the Montgomery Mail.] Grant may be elected t but still it is our duty as a State to form our lines and see that Alabama goes Democratic. If national poli- itics are against us, we must save our. local questions and work with a view of making evefymah show his colors, and” take!h|s. po sition in rank preparatory to the great State 'contest for Governor, in 1870. Two years willroU round rapidly, and in November, 1870, we can, even under the bogus constitu tion, electa Governor and House, of Bepre- -sentatives, and half of the. Senate. .To. &oi this, the Democrats and Conservatives must keep a good alignment, bring out their full . vote ui November, and show the people that Alabama is against the Radicals by 40,000 Majority.

It- be comes us to look them as. calmly and dispas sionately as we can in the face. The measure of our. cup is almost full to the overflowing. We may not be permitted-to look for any -ray' of brightness to the North. But all is not lost. We must turn our eyes upon our Common wealth. If we are doomed to look in vain to the ballot at the North, let ns not forget that we may look to the ballot in our own State. Let ouf work be to regenerate this. To this let onr hopes and our energies be turned. —Here is our home, and here we expect our posterity to reside.. Let„us see to it that we use every endeavor to have a safe govern- xnent, and that we secure, some degree' of right and civil liberty for ourselves and *for The scalawag organ in Augusta has a col umn of exultation over the Radical successes in Pennsylvania and Ohio, at the top of which appears a picture of a negro playing the fiddle. We read that “Nebo fiddled when Borne was on fire,” and the guide of the pre sent day points ont to the traveler the ruin of the palace in which that crowning act of in. famy is said to have been performed by the immortal traitor to his race and country. It has been reserved for the scalawag editor of Georgia, in the likeness of a Nero, to fiddle in. exultation at the triumph of military des potism over constitutional liberty—of mon grel Jacobinism over the white Democracy. Northern men will hardly feel gratified on beholding in this picture the symbol of the Government which they, in their unreason ing hate, are aiding to force npon the white people of the South, and which in due time will cast its dark and blighting shadow over their own peace and prosperity. All this is passing strange, but not more strange than what lias been before. Popular fanaticism, like epidemics, mast run ite course. Egypt is making a very substantial show in the raising of cotton, and will eventually, it is thought, become a leading power in the culture of that important staple. She began to furnish England with raw cotton in large amount in 18C1—sending 41,000,000 pounds. In 1865 the quantity famished was 177,000,- 000. In 1864 England paid Egypt over $64,- 000,000 for cotton. The year before the war she paid her less than $7,000,000. Unless the South can be released from her present thraldom these figures will 1 multiply eveiy year. >*»«-< The Empress Charlotte has had a relapse, and is again entirely paralyzed by the fear of being poisoned She flies from everybody. For whole days she remains sitting in a comer of her room without motion; but when any one approaches her she has a paroxysm; she runs away eagerly to save herself, and calls with a load voice for help. Not only her mental, but her bodily condition is seriously changed, and gives rise to grave apprehensions. A Washington letter says the Democratic leaders in that city boast of having made in the recent elections, a glorious fight against money, fraud and Government patronage. The slight braising on Tuesday last only ren ders, the party more eager for the fray, and telegrams from all quarters to the National Executive Committee, announce the deter mination of going into the November fight with a vim, and confident of victory. ■ *■ 1 ® * ‘ i.ll Election s Yxeoinia.—The only State elec tion' to take place before the Presidential election will be held' in West Virginia on Wednesday next, the 22d inst, when State officers and three Congressmen will be chosen. Johnson N. Camden, of Wood county, is the Democratic nominee for Governor. The Democrats express themselves confident of the success of their ticket. that there is a very „ opinion on the subject among the the Democracy, and this fact and that the New York World has an suggestive of the same plan, is taken as a. sort of judgment pro confesso against the, present nominees of the Democratic party, and an acknowledgment of. the absolute ne cessity, therefore, of the nomination of new candidates. The Intelligencer will have an editorial in the morning giving a reflex of the views entertained by Democrats here, of •which the following is a eppy: “We lay before the readers of the Intelli- gencer this morning the following significant article of the NewYork World. We are con vinced that the Democratic party seek only the restoration of the constitution of 1789, In putting forward a ticket in the present temper of tho country we have always main tained they should have kept in view the fact that the Republicans were divided in senti ment npon the measures of reconstruction, as well as npon finances. It is. unquestiona bly true that the Republicans before the adoption of those measures constituted a ma jority of the Northern people. . . “ In putting up a ticket, then, sonnd poli cy' and patriotism commanded that the de mocrate should distinctly recognize os within the pale of their organization all who opposed the measures to which we have referred The New York Convention thought , otherwise, aud nominated Gov. Seymour andGen. Blair. These nominations we admits, were judicious enough, if the object alone was to maintain the integrity of the Democratic party, bnt we had again and again declared that the preser vation of the Union, under the authority of ite organic law, was the grand purpose we had in view in entering upon the canvass of 1868. ■■•■■■! ■ “ As a minority could avail little in such a work, policy and sound principles demanded nominations which would draw largely from conservative men of all parties. That de mand was not heeded, but it is still in foil force, and now is the time to obey it Letthose upon whom the convention of the party con ferred the great honor of ita confidence rise to the height of the great occasion, and then, emulating their exalted patriotism, let the National Executive Committee execute the trust reposed ia tbem by the people without fear, and with no other sentiment than devo tion to the country aud the Constitution.” The following is the article from the New York World, alluded to in the above letter: 'On democratic principles, pore and simple, . we should have succeeded. We have, beaten by reasons extraneons to the questions in issue. We could easily have overcome the popularity of General Grant if another point had not been raised to divert attention from the. issues. The position of General Blair and some of the Dppthem leaders has been industriously peryertefl and misrepresented, and an impression produced that the Demo cratic pin' ' ' ' ” ’ ’ the new slander to have tumed the balance in onr favor. The narrow escape of the Republicans from a great defeat is not duo to their principles, but to the military prestige of Grant and the aspersions cast upon Blair. In a simple con test of principle we should have sncceejed; and we may succeed yet, if we can remove or neutralize these adverse influences, which really have nothing to do with the merits of the public questions. Can this be done ? It is a grave question, fraught with the most momentous conse quences. We commend it to the attention, to the moat earnest reflection of the recog nized leaders of the party. We have still ! nearly three weeks for action; and where so ' slight a couuterpois would suffice to turn the scale, prompt oction-if it be judicious us well as prompt—will accomplish wonders. If, in a review of the whole situation, it shall be concluded that mistakes have been made, it is better that they should be corrected now than that the country should be dragged through four more weary years of strife, to be redeemed then by measures of the same kind that might, by a magnificent exercise of pluck, be as easily adopted now. Whatever a sagacious forecast may perceive to be the proper course of the Democratic parfy four years hence, if it should be beaten now, had better be pursjied at once. The time has come—the hour has struck—when we must turn our faces resolutely to the future. This is a young country, with a great career before it which no imagination can grasp; a majority of our voters are young men abound ing in hope, enterprise, ardor, activity; and the country being in the dawn of a new era, when all minds are filled with expectation and excitement, that party has the best chances of a great future which is most in sympathy with the youthful, irrepressible energies of the nation. A growing nation, like an improving individual, has always something to learn. A political party which does not advance with the nation, and enter into the fullness of ite expanding, exuberant life, is on the declivity which descends to decadence and decrepitude. The Democratic party is full of vigorous, youthful, aspiring elements; similar elements in the other party are yearning to join it, if we will but have the boldness to build a bridge on which they can cross. The Democratic party cannot die; ite vitality, ite invincible tenacity of life, the sanguine confidence with which it gathers energy from defeat, bespeak a great destiny still in reserve. If our leaders should be convinced by the result of the late elections that some mis takes were made by not. following their ori ginal judgment; if those who disagreed with them in opinion now see that they misjudged; if there is any impediment to success which can yet be removed by noble daring, or self- sacrificing virtue, or a bold stroke of policy, now is the hour for action! It would be an infinite pity if, when we are so very near suc- it by the lack of engers be ap a voters' resid cincta to which they may be assigned for duty, and that aU etrang- persons not known - to be entitled to • challenged upon’ offering to vote, and required to take the oaths; prescribed by the' Constitution and election laws. Jt is not' . intended'or expected that captions challenges I should be made—challenges should be* made only in cases of doubt, or when it is well known that the persons offering to vote are not entitled. - 1 It is earnestly requested that no freedman who is entitled to the right of suffrage be obstructed in the exercise of that right. A**nrAing to the election laws of - this State the managers must be justices of the peace, and freeholders. From tho necessity of the case the management of the election will bo in the bands of white men. But onft 'day is allowed for the election, and in many of the counties the number of woteis will be largely increased over previous elections, so much so as to give room for doubts' whether_ all will have an opportunity to vote, and this may pATiafl tho polls to be crowded to the exclusion of some of the voters. Under such circum stances there maybe danger of conflicts be tween the two races, and not may be the con sequences. To avoid collisions and riots, and in order that the election maybe conduct ed fairly, the managers are especially request ed to make arrangements, so that all who are entitled'to vote shall have an opportunity of I voting without being jostled from the polls. This will be necessary in-order to preserve tbe public peace. Let all have an opportnni- ty to vote without hindrance or obstruction,- who possess the requisite qualifications. In giving these instructions, the Central Execu tive Committee do not assume to dictate to the managers of the eleetion, bnt make these suggestions, that tbe public peace may be preserved and riots avpided.
