EX-SENATOR NORWOOD'S LETTER,
About 10,000,000 foot of lumber ore mrtilo in
the United StntcK each year.
Bon iNOKneoLL didn’t accept ttio missiou to
Germany, becanso it wasn't ottered to him.
Bukthukn of th*» press: the campaign in end
ed; let uh bury the tomahawk deep, deep, deep.
We've all had “lots of fun.” Hero's our
BAYAiin. Coke, Maxey, Lamar and Randolph
were the only Uemoe.ratic S-'»\a*orR who voted
to incroaso the army. The U ‘publicans were
dolid.
4,r frtR country may as well make up Its mind
now to a death Rtrueale with Grant and Grant-
ism three years hence,” iH the prediction of Mr.
Henry Watterson.
The Cincinnati Enquirer is already flcnrinc
upon the result in 18S0. and at the lotvpRt possi
ble calculation puts the Democratic majority in
the electoral college at 03.
At last, after long effort, tho Milledgevill* peo
ple have succeeded in getting a man of promi
nence to write in favor of tho old capital, over
his own signalnre. Ex-Senator Norwood 1ms
written a letter in favor of Milledgcvillo. In
coining out thus early in the campaign tho hon
orable ex-senator has violated his oustom.
While in the Senate, it was customary with him
to wait till the emergency was past, then to rush
to tho pluen where the fray was, and lay ljeavy
strokes on tho place where the enemy had been.
In other words, the gentleman has ever boon
like the Irishman who boasted of his gallant ex
ploits at Sebastopol. “What did you do?” asked
a listener. “I walked bowldly up to one of tho
inemy and cut off his feet" “Why didn’t you
cut off his head?" was the next question. "Be-
porra," replied Pat “that was off already."
So it is with ex-s«iiator Norwood; ho is ever
ready, after the enemy’s head is oft', to whack off
his feet. We fully expected the ex-senator (you
see we insist on tho e.c) to take a hand in this
capital tight, but we did not look for him till
about the ‘20th of December, lie has como out
prematurely, and evidently without preparation.
He says: “I have heard that my preference for
Milledgeville springs Iroin my def.-at last Jan
uary, for Unit d States Senator, which Atlanta
effect' d." This, he says, is not true, and then
,vs conclusively that it is true. Here is his
succceeding statement;
Mb. W; F. Combs has boncht the Athens
Georgian, and will take editorial control of it
next week. Success to him and also to Dr.
Carbon, tho retiring Editor.
Trin Nashvillo American says tho daily aver-
ngo of tho southward movement of meat is now
fifteen car loads of swine “and a good deal of
meat." This tells the story of our poverty. It
sums it all up in a few words.
The Cincinnati Enquirer puts it in this Rliape:
«‘The Shylocks raised tho checks given them,and
now claim the altered facoR as the true amounts
due.” They also say that the men who seek to
put a stop to this swindling, are thieves.
Rev. W. W. Landrum, the talented yonug
paRtor of the Greene Street Baptist Church of
Augusta, has joined the Richmond Hussars and
been elected captain. Mr. L. “jined the caval
ry," because his sedentary life made some recre
ative exercise necessary.
The Savannah News says that ono of tho edi
tors of the Atlanta Constitution furnishes edito
rials to country oapers that favor Atlanta. This
may be so; but tho country papers can thank
fully say that no one has ever charged them with
writing the editorials in the Savannah News.
The Legislature laRt January was guilty of the
awful crime of not re-electing Senator Norwood.
But most of those legislators have been re-nom
inated, and will bo e'ected next Wednesday.
ThiR looks like the people don’t take Mi. Nor
wood’s defeat as much to heart as he does.
The Macon Telegraph thus addresses its read
ers, in its editorial columns: “For heaven’s sake
use sozodont end sweeten your breath.” The
Telegraph did not find it necessary to use this
exhortation until it took to consorting with the
Radicals, in its frantic efforts for Milledgeville.
No wonder it smells had breath.
The hotel at which Marquis Lafayette was en
tertained during his visit to Macon in 1825, still
stands, and is situated on the corner of Mulber
ry 6treet and the old court-house square.
There are more “halls of our fathers;" but the
humble factors of tho Macon Telegraph never
move thither, for it has loug since ceased to be
a hotel.
Mr. CooLBAuan the wealthy Chicago banker
who recently committed suicide, was led to the
deed, it is said, by intemperance. The number
of deaths caused by intemperance is countless,
and yet we see around us men who regularly fill
themselves with ardent spirits, and young men
who are daily confirming themselves in a habit
which in a few years they will be utterly unable
to break.
Mr. Norwood, who wasn’t re-eleete<j Senator,
complains that the citizens of Atlanta beat him.
He forgets that when he icas elected, it was iu
Atlanta. How was it that Atlanta exercised
Such a baneful influence in the second instance
aud not in the first? Yonr statements, Mr.
Norwood, are thin -in fact, attenuated. The
philosophy of that election was simply this: You
had been tried six years and the people wanted
Ben Hill. Just accept that as a fair diagnosis of
the case; then take ft dose of teethiua, and see
it won’t end your fretful ness.
Gen. P. AI. B. Young speaks for Atlanta ns
the capital. Was he not interested in some way
in getting money from tho Freedman’s bank in
Washington? -Columbus Enquirer.
We don’t know whether or not Gen. Young
4, wM3 interested in getting money from the
Freedman’s Bank." If he was so interested aud
did get some, wo presume he got it honestly.
Does the Enquirer mean that he didn’t act hon
estly; aud if so, what has his advocacy of Atlanta
to do with it? Does the Enquirer mean that an
advocate of Atlauta is therefore dishonest or
corrupt? There have been enough insinuations
in this campaign; it is time the opponents ot
Atlanta should foibear making insinuations
which cannot be supported by facts.
The editors of the Macon Telegraph, try to
make their readers believe they know more
about the way Atlanta has acted than Gen.
Toombs. Mr. Toombs says he has volunteered
to represent the State and has thoroughly in
vestigated the frauds against the State by Rad
ical thieves. He says Atlanta has acted in good
faith, and that she will do what she pi cutises
to do, if the people vote the Capital for her.
Mr. Toombs has no more interest in the matter
than a good citizen. Alacon is jealous, aud has
more at 6take than merely locating the Capital
at Milledgeville. The ablest men of the State
tell yon Atlanta is the best place for the Capi
tal. -Barnesville Gazette•
VOTE NEXT WEDNESDAY.
I will state frankly tlmt if I considered the
advantages to the whole people of having tli
capital at Atlanta or at Milledgeville equal, 1
should personally prelor Milledgeville.
why? I have never forgotten a kindness, bro
ken a promise, nor deserted a friend. In the
late Senatorial race Milledgeville was my warm
political friend Atlanta was my most active
zealous, effective, political opponent. I say op
nonent, not foe or enemy, for her good people,
so far as l know, are my friends. Indeed, I w
assured by many of them that the opposition
Atlanta was not personal to me, but because I
was opposing “Atlanta's idol." As I knew
people of Georgia are not idol worshipers, I
thought, but said not, “Little children !
not unto yourselves idols." But the political
power of At'anta was almost solid against
and that alone defeated me. It was strong
enough to change a handsome majority iu
favor to a minoritj’, and thus, as I eoneeiv
defeat the will »■! the people of the State. No
just, fair-minded citizen of Atlanta would ask
expect me to turn my ba- k on my political
friend and kiss the baud that smote me.
There is little comment needed ou tlmt extract,
While Mr. Norwood has the undoubted right to
take whichever side he pleases iu tip's contro
versy, and to labor all he can on that sid«
are moi tifted to see suoh an exhibition of spleen
from a man whom Georgia has so highly hou
ored in the past. There is a childishness about
it which does no cicdit to the author aud
confirm the opinion, now almost universal, that
the Legislature did a wise thing in not re-elect
ing him. Ilis querulous complaints, which
abound in the letter, do not/harin Mr. Mill
the people of Atlanta; but they rebound \t
full force on him. Take a rest, Mr. Norwood
you are sick.
0, CONSISTENCY!
The pretended indignation avowed by the
advocates of Milledgeville at whit they called
Atlanta’s alliance with the Radicals was th
shallowest of shams. It was charged that At
lanta employed Radicals, both white and black
to canvass iu her interest. This may or may
not have been true; we know nothing of it, bn
the fact has loug been known that both white
and black Radicals were traveling about aud
making active efforts in behalf of Milledgevill
Whether or not these are in tho employ of the
Milledgeville campaign managers, we cannot say
but we have as much right to assume that they
are, as our opponents have to assume that Bry
ant aud the otheiB were employed by Atlanta
In a hot political campaign means are very of
ten used which honorable men in their more
reasonable moments cou'd not approve; and it
is not improbable that both sides in this capital
matter have done things which they would not
like to have published to the world.
The a tempt of the Milledgeville party to
prove itself pure and the other party corrupt
a piece of most intolerable hypocrisy,
have before us now a copy of the Macon Tele
graph, with a c.ill for a “graud rally lor Mil-
ledgeville." The call says;
Every friend of Milledgeville, Retrenchment
and Economy, without regard to party, race or
nationality,is earnestly requested to be present.
Hon. Sum’l F. Gove aud others will address the
meeting.
THE TUN OF THE THING.
There I as been a great deal of fun floating
around in tho capital campaign, some voluntary
and some iuvoluntary. Ah tho two subliimst
specimens of tho latter kind, wo uieutiou tho
Macon Telegraph's railroad map and Joo Nis-
bet’s poem. Wo cannot publish tho map, for the
white-pine board on which it was carved is now
id by II. II. J.’s cook to beat biscuit on; but
wo catch the poem on tho wing and give it a
pluen iii our columns this week. While pornsing
ir readers should remember that it has boon
published and praised by most of tho papers
that favor Milledgeville, and 1ms evidently been
regarded by thorn as a grand triumph of poesy.
you'd not say a word in contradiction of
their plaudits. Wo only ask our readers to
peruse i> calmly and slowly. They should pon
d'd carefully tho third verse whore the Old Cap
ital alludes to the fact that Gov. Alilledgo was
its bride and the Ooonoo its i rldegroom, but
what position it occupied iu this triangular big
amous arrangement, tho poet fails to say.
Thou notice in tho next verso whore tho O C.’s
t was broken when tho soldier said pack up
and go —(we are not told whether or whither it
nt); and iu fourth verse, where LuFayette
waked tho high welkin—whatever that means.
The seventh verse assures us of tha physiological
fact that net only was Governor Gilmer child
less, but his wife was also, which is an excellent
idea to put in a llrst-clash poem. Further ou
ire told that some poisons trod on Governor
Johnson's sod, aud the poet avers, with a pious
•jaculatiou, that these malicious persons were
in bouio way lott behind somebody or something
doubtless as a punishment for trampling on
the Governor’s grass, Tho physiological disqui
sition continues, for the next verso assures us
that Joukius, Stephens aud,.Toombs had a curi
ous, and wo must say inexplicable, habit of
nursing upon tho arm of this anomalous aud
shameless creature who has just confessed to a
marriage with a mau and a muddy river.
But time and space would tail us to point out
the extraordinary features of this extraordinary
production. Here it is; let the reader enjoy it
for himself.
LAMENT OF THE OLD CAPITAL.
Georgia prom*
county, lmd Ins
’eek by a gin.
We urge all our readers to go to tho polls
next Wednesday, without fail, and vote. Vote
for Senator and Representatives; vote for the
ratification of the new constitution; vote for
the homestead of 18G8 or of 1877, as you think
I>est; and vote for Milledgovillo or Atlanta for
the capital, as you think best.
The Radicals appear to be indifferent ia this
election, but they are wide-awake in many plac
es,if not ail over tho Stale. They waut the new
constitution defeated, because it displaces their
miserable handiwork. They will do all they
oan to defeat it.
The Democrats should vote for it to a man. It
is a good constitution. While we do not approve
some parts of i',wo do noi hesitate to say that,
as a whole, Georgia never had a better. It cuts
down expenses in every possible way. It re
stricts the legislature to its proper work, thus
preventing tho foolish and extravagant expendi
ture of time and mouey which has characterized
all the legislatures under the present constitu
tion. It leaves out the declaration that South
ern soldiers in tho late war were traitors. It
provides that grand jurors shall be composed ot
the most experienced, intelligent and upright citi
zens; and this change in the law, is itself worth
all the cost of the convention.
Time would fail to tell of all the respects
-wherein the new is an improvement on tho old.
Suffice it to say, we believe that every fax-pay
ing Georgian will be guilty of great wrong to
himself and hia fellow-citizeus, if ho fails to
▼oto for ratification next Wednesday.
It has not been long since tho said “Hon.
Sam’l F.Gove” was denounced and ridiculed by
the Telegraph and the Macon Democrats, as the
Congressman elected by tho negroes. Now
they exalt him to be a leader. He it the only
speaker mentioned. Where are the Hardemans
and Bacon, and Whittle, and Lofton, and the
Nisbets, and Holt,and the Harrises, and Hill
and Greshum and others of the old aud young
Democracy, that Macon must take up “Hou.
Samuel F. Gove,"for its leader? Will the “oth-
” to address tLe meeting be ol Mr. Gove’s
party ? If so, wo may expect Fitzpatrick and
Jeff Long,and Frank Disroou and TilmauLowe,
and others of that sort.
The self-exalted patriots of tho Milledgeville per
suasion are consorting with any Radicals, who
will allow alliance. There is no mistake about it.
A number of negro-radicals names have been
announced as laboring iu South Georgia for
Milledgeville. Get out of the glass house,boys,
before you begin to throw stones. Gather the
beams out of yonr own eyes, before you attempt
to cleanse tho optics of the rest uf us.
DEATH OF BISHOP MARVIN,
Rev. Enoch Mather Marvin, one of the Bish
ops of the Methodist Episcopal Church, South,
died nt his home in St.Louis last Monday morn-
This fact,as we learn from the Atlauta Cou-
sti ution was telegraphed to Judge James J ick-
son, nothing being said of the cause of his
death. The news will fall like a great shock
upon the large church of which the deceased
was a bishop. He had only recently returned
from a loug visit to China and Japan, Wbither he
hail i een sent by the church, in the interest of
missions, and so far as we know there was no
premonition of bis early death.
Bishop Marvin was a native of Missouri, and
was about filty-two years old. He was elected
to the office of Bis .op by the General Confer
ence at New Orleans in 18G6, while he was ou
the prairies of Texas preaching to the frontiers
men. Elevated to the general snperiutendency of
the church,bis remarkable talents as a preacher
soon became known throughout the whole con
nection, and thousands iu Georgia will mourn
for him as for a dear friend. His sermons were
imaginative and metaphysical to an unusual de
gree, and the hearers seldom forgot impressious
made by them.
Last year Dr. Myers fell a victim to yellow
fever iu Savannah; a few weeks since Dr. Dun
can fell at his post iu Virginia; now Bishop
Marvin is taken—three great men—great when
compared with auy men. Can the loss be re
paired ? God buries his workmen, but carries
on bis work.
Gen. Gordon is endorsed and recommended
for re-election by almost every Democratic cou
vention that has been held in the Stale. Such
unanimity on the part of the people is very uu
usual, and it/ shows, as nothing else could, bow
deep is tho love for Gordon and how great is
the confidence in him, which prevail in Georgia.
By the time the election takes place, in Novem
ber, 1878, the opposition to Georgia's gallant
son will bo reduced to a mere shadow.

SENATOR HILL’S MAIDEN SPEECH IN THE
SENATE.
We are alwaj’8 proud ot any triumph which
Ben Hill wius; aud so we publish the following
special telegram of 21st, to the Richmond Dis
patch: Senator Ben Hill made his maiden speech
iu the Senate to-day,in support of Senator Thur
man’s resolution to discharge the committee on
privileges and elections from further considera
tion of the Butler-Corbiu contested caso from
South Carolina. The first souud of his voice
aroused the Senate which had been listlessly en
during, as patiently as it might, ono of Mitch-
ll’s long-winded aud tedious harangues. Sen
ators quickly deserted the clouk-rooms, where
they hud been enjoying a quiet smoke, and the
vacant ehuirs filled up rapidly. Coukliug came
>ver and took Wallace's vacant chair,in the front
ow on the Democratic side, and within a dozen
feet of Hill. Thurman left his seat iu the back
row and took a vacant chair in the open space
directly between the Vice-President and Mr.
Hill. David Davis, of Illinois, whoso independ
ent vote is the one great thorn iu the bide of the
Repn’ lican party in tho Senate, also came over
to the Democratic side aud gave careful atten
tion to the argument. As the argument pro
gressed, Corkling, who for days has been con
tinually and repeatedly at Davis’s elbow, and
who seems to have been especially assigned to
the duty of keepiug Davis harnessed to the party
machine, grew visibly watchful of his ward, and
soon took up a position at his elbow and en
gaged him him in earnest conversation. While
this bj’-piay was going on,members oHhe house
kept dropping iu uulil the new Senator from
Georgia had a full aud distinguished audience.
Senator Hill’s maiden effuit was a most suc
cessful one. His manner was dignified, his
speech forcible, and his argument logical. He
presented very clearly the exact status of the
contested cases; how Spofford and Kellogg pre
sented their case first to the committee because
they were iuvited first by the committee; how he
and bis Democratic colleagues on the committee
had acquiesced because they supposed tho Sen
ate woul 1 not so far violate judicial precedence
as fo re-open a difficulty which had been settled
by the parties to the difficulty; how he (Hill)
had introduced a resolution affirming that the
committee would accept the decision of the peo
ple of Louisiana; how that resolution was lost
aud another substituted by Seuator Hoar,which
re-opened the whole Louisiana controversy; how
he and his Democratic colleagues opposed such
a re opening; and how, when Hoar’s resolution
was adopted by the Republicans on the commit
tee, he moved to take up the case of Eustis, in
which case there were no other credentials be
fore the committee than those of Air. Eustis.
Senator Hill’s speech drew out labored replies
from Wudleigh and Hour.
Mr. Norwood, who is not now a Senator,
complains that the citizens of Atluuta did some
tearful lobbying with the Legislators, against
biui aud in fnvor of Ben Hill. If the lobbying
of the citizens was at all comparable to that ol
Mr. Norwood, the wonder is that the poor Leg
islators survived.

apital to stay in Atlanta
because it is there already. There will bo no
expense attached to its remaining thoro. It will
oost something to move It to Milledgeville.
It ought to remain in Atlanta because that
city will build a n w oapitol and present it to
tho State. If moved, a new oapitol may
have to bo built in Milledgeville, nt expense to
the State. From all wo can learn the old capi
tal is not, Ruitcd for tho present purposes of
government. For tho benefit ot Troup County
voters wo will say that - Dr. W.P. Beasley, a man
whom Troup sunt to Legislature several times
beloie tho war, gives as his opinion tlmt the old
capital is not 4 suffioient lor tho government as
now constituted.
Tt ought to remain,boeauso it would be ridicu
lous to solid the capital to a town which cannot
support a hotel. Just think of that. Milledge
vill hasn’t a hotel. True they say ono will
bo built if the capital is returned, but that does
not detract from tho village-character of the
place.
It ought to remain in Atlanta because Atlanta
has expended a largo amount of money on the
condition of tho capital remaining there. Tho
State will act in bad faith, it this barga n is not
complied with. It is all stuff to talk about any
obligation on the part of the State to keep the
capital in Milledgeville torevor. It was there fif
ty years, and all obligation on the part ol the
State has certainly been fulfill" 1. It is likewise
folly to say that the St ite ought to return the
capita'to “build lip" Milledgeville. Iho capi
tal will not build Milledgeville, and if it would,
we cannot see tlmt it is the dut\ "I the State to
build up broken-down towns. She would av»*
her hands tub if she started that business.
Those who say that legislation cannot h" as
pure and cheap in Atlanta as elsewhere, either
expose their own ignorance or presume greatly
on tho ignorance ol others.
People of this section ought to vote for At
lanta because of its convenience to us. Cer
tainly, it ad other thing - were equal, this alone
ought t>» influence tho votes of this and tho ad
joining counties.
Fm dly, in the name of economy, justice,con
venience, progress and the welfare of the Slate,
LET UH ALL VOTE FOR ATLANTA.
