National Republican AUOUSTA, «a. BUNDAY MORNING MarchS, 18f8 ” £ For PRESIDENT Os thk United States: ULYSSES S. GRANT. For Governor OF GEORGIA : How. R. B. BULLOCK OF K.ICHIvIO3NrX). THE COMING MAN. A special telegram received at this office, at 7* o'clock, last evening, brought the welcome intelligence that “Hon. R. B. Bullock was unanimously nominated for Governor, by acclamation, in full Conven tion—all the Districts fully represented— at five o'clock to-day.'’ The news soon became public, anil The Republican office, up to a late hour, pre sented an animated appearance—“troops of friends” of the Nominee being present. Wc have not seen the man so obtuse as to gainsay the assertion that the unanimous nomination of Colonel Bullock is equiva lent to his election. THE GOOD TjIME COMING. We are looking for it, and our faith is ■trong that we shall not look in vain. The objects of a State are peace, justice, pro tection of rights, security for all well-dis posed citizens, and enduring prosperity. We long to see Georgia restored to the Union—the United States of America. Nor are we in the least discomposed by the taunts and threats of the Obstruction ists, here and elsewhere, who are doing all they can to prevent the consummation of this cherished purpose. We are not ap palled, either, at the cry of “Negro States.” White men, if they would, could have held all the power in every Southern State. The obstructionists chose to. throw all the power into the hands of the loyal whites and the negroes. They hoped for disgrace ful failure. They knew full well that the framing of a Constitution is the hardest work that a self-governing people ever have to do, and that political inexperience made it doubly difficult. Disgraceful failure did not come. The loyal whites and the negroes, into whose hands the obstructionists had deliberately thrown the power which white men might have retained, have framed Constitutions to which no decent objection has ever been made. And now these “Conservative ” gentlemen pray to be saved from negro rule! The “negro States,” so-called, will soon be as white as any in the Union. Once admitted, they will be found perfectly satisfactory by the very men who now turn black in the face while talking of them* The “rebels” will be as anxious as any body else to vote, to hold office, and to share in all the blessings of order and peace. * What we Think, etc. A subscriber in Dade county wishes to know our opinion of Col. Bullock, and whether or not the Opinion would support him for Governor? Our opinion, based upon a rather brief personal acquaintance is,that Col. Bullock is a gentleman in every relation of life, and that, it nominated, he would combine the strength of the party; that he would be elected, and that he would fill that high office with credit to the State. If nomiua ted, we shall certainly support him. We regard him as fully competent to the posi tion wherein his friends seek to place him. Atlanta Opinion, March Ith. From our Special Correspondent.] FROM WASHINGTON. The Absorbing Topic Impeachment—The Presi dent and his Enemies—The Sale pf Gold — A Defalcation — Distinguished Arrival—Post Of fice Appropriation—The Public Debt. Washington, D- C., March 3, 18G8. The subject of impeachment continues to be the all-absorbing topic of conversation, and, in all probability, will continue to be so until the close of the trial. While thero wil] be no indecent, nevertheless no unnecessary delay in the progress of the trial is to be permitted, and no reason is now apparent why the trial may not be commenced by the loth instant at the farthest. The President’s courage of late seems to have failed, and he secs his warmest per gonal friends and enemies seeking his de struction. To such an extent does this hal lucination control his actions, that not a single member of the Cabinet has escaped his censure during the last week. Mr. Mc- Culloch has, for a long time, been under a cloud at the White House, but recently he was openly accused of playing into the bands of the “Impcachers.” It appears that the Secretary of the Treasury directed Mr. Van Dyck, in New York, to dispose of $1 000,000 in gold, to meet certain demands upon the Treasury Department. Mr. John son interpreted this as a hostile act; it was done, he said, to keep down the price of gold—just what the impcachers wanted. Van Dyck was sent for, and the President than learned that the order for the sale of the gold had been given six weeks before, and of course it* sale had no reference what ever to the impeachment question. Mr. McCulloch was also called to an account for honoring the drafts of Mr. Stanton, thereby recognizing him as Secretary of War, and the current rumor is, that some pretty hard words passed. All the other members of the Cabinet, except Mr. Randall, are accused of lukewarmness in regard to Mr. Johnson’s interests. This could not be otherwise, tor they foresee the 'ur°'L doom in the great uuity of the R«P“bhea» members of Congress upon ,he ,üb r l ! 0 impeachment. I know there has bee"» semi-official denial of any ••onph asantneM in the Cabinet; but then we know also, the same semi-official denials were made about Mr Stanton, once on a time, which denials, everybody now knows, were simply false hoods. But for the impending trial, it is the general belief here that ut least oue, if not two, Cabinet Ministers would tender their resignations. It would be base ingratitude, after having tempted the President into his present awkward position, for them to desert him in his greatest hour of peril. A systematic effort is being made to con vince the country that Mr. Johnson is as calm as ever, and does not fear the result of the ordeal he will have to go through. There is no truth iu these statements. In justice to him, I will say that he does begin to feel that he has been left alone in the hands of the party that he has so wilfully betrayed, and hence acts and talks as a man naturally would thus situated, and who realizes his own guilt. At other than public occasions, it is the subject he seeks to talk about. The report of a defalcation yesterday, created a temporary sensation until the real facts were known. The delinquent, J. C. Clark, has for twenty years occupied a con fidential position in Riggs A Co’s banking house. The deficit amounts to only $40,- 000—a mere bagatelle—anil Clark has left for pnrts unknown, his employers, it is understood, refusing to prosecute. Com pounding a felony seems to be no crime now a-days. Among the recent arrivals iu this city is Robert Tyler, of Alabama, son of the late ex-President Tyler, and Robert Ould, of Richmond, formerly District Attorney in this city. Both of these individuals served the “lost cause ” faithfully, and came here, per haps, to see how the land lays. They do not much like the new turn of affairs, seeing, as they do, beyond impeachment, the sword of justice dangling over their own heads. The feelinfr is so general here that the President will be removed, that great alarm exists among the Copperhead and ex-rebel officeholders in the Departments. Some of the most prominent of this class hold very important positions but it is believed their time is limited. It is a humiliating spec tacle to see the widow of a Union General and a Rebel sympathizer employed in the same department of the government—the first compelled to work full time, and the latter working or letting it alone, according to the whim of the hour. The appropriation bill for the Post Office Department passed the House to-day. The principal items are— foreign mail transportation $ 426,000 Ship, steamboat, an<t way letters S,OOO Compensation of postmasters 4,256,000 Clerks - 2,000,000 Letter carriers 750,000 Wrapping paper 70,000 Twine 15,000 Letter balances 3,500 Postage and stamped envelopes 450,000 balances to foreign countries 350,000 San Francisco, Japan, and China mail service.. 500,000 United States and Brazil 150,000 San Francisco and Sandwich Islands.. 75,000 Postal route maps < 20,000 Depredations on mails..A-* 100,000 Locks and keys 30,000 Miscellaneous items 551,500 Total estimate $20,269,000 The public debt on the Ist inst. amounted to $2,504,845,374, an increase since July Ist, 1867, of $7,807,359.

GREAT TRIUMPHS OF ANIMAL MAGNETISM IN ATLANTA, GA.! ‘ Truth is Mighty and Must Prevail.” Atlanta, Ga., February 12, IS6B. I have been a hopeless invalid for the weary space of ton or twelve years, laboring under a combination of dreadful diseases, which have loDg sinoe been pronounced INCURABLE. I had of late grown rapidly worse, until three days since I was brought to this city on a bed, being en tirely unable to sit up, for the purpose of consult ing the far-famed Prof. ROBERTS. After the first treatment, which was only a few minutes, I was freo of all pain and able to walk anywhere, and to-day I feel so well and strong I can scarce ly realize that I am the same being who was so feeble and suffering so much three days since. I can ndver express my heartfelt gratitude to tho man whose wonderful skill has thus {relieved me, of so much inexpressible suffering. May God bless the Doctor wherever ho goes, is my bumble prayer. (Signed) Mrs. J. 11. NASH, Lovejoy’s Station, Ga. Atlanta, Ga., February 5, 1868. To whom it may concern : This will certify that for eight months past I have boon afflicted with Neuralgia in the right side of tho face, and most of the time suffered most excruciating pain during which time I have sought relief in vain from the regular medical profession; and I fur ther certify that I was relieved the first time I was treated by Prof. ROBERTS, and apparently permanently cured after being treated tho third time. I most confidently recommend him to all similarly afflicted. J. B. LANIER. U. S. Hotel, Atlanta, Ga., Jan. 20, 1868. This certifies that I have suffered much with Neuralgia for two years past; and for two weeks previous to my being iroatod by Animal Mag netism, by Prof. ROBERTS, at tho U. S. Hotel, Atlanta, Ga., January 6th, 1868, I had been suf fering inexpressible agonios.
