For PRESIDENT
Os tiie United States:
ULYSSES Ji. «RAMT.
For Governor
OF GEORGIA :
Hon. R. B. BULLOCK
OF RICHMOND.
PLATFORM.
Resoled, That tee jdedge our support to
the Constitution framed bp the ConstUu
tutional Convention of this Sittte note in
session. ■
Resolved, That we present to the friends of
Reconstruction in Georgia this Constitution
as our Platform, atul tee urgently request
them to ratify it.
Resolved, Thai tee pledge our support to
the llon. R. B. Bpi.lock, our candidate for

Resolved, Thai tee earnestly request the
friends of Reconstruction to ratify the
Xominatiun of the Hox\ R. B. Bullock in
their Primary Meetings, and sustain him by
their ro'es.
1(7/r DON'T THEY FIGHT!
We should be glad to know what has
become of all those valiant champions
who were going to do such bloody things
in case the President was impeached. Have
they nil retired to their tents to feast or
sleep while their friend is undergoing the
purgatory of trial for his misdeeds ? Before
impeachment they were as valorous as
Longstreet's “ Ilancy Sniffle”; since, their
courage, like Bob Acres’, seems to have
oozed out at their lingers’ ends. The war
which was going to be made, and which
was to renew' the flush times of the Con
federacy—to make Treasury notes as plen
tiful as dry leaves in autumn, to bring
back the golden days of the conscript
officer and the commissary, to double the
already immense crop of brigadier and
major generals, is being fought out with
wind, and the only explosions we are cog
nizant of are not those of villainous salt
petre, but the gas of some flatulent Demo
cratic editor.
The truth is, Johnson has few real
friends. Those who bragged so loudly in
the Bombastes strain, cared nothing for
him, except that by flattery they might
make something out of him. They are
the sort of folks who would “ flatter the
devil for his burning throne.” Now, when
they see that Johnson’s race is almost run
that they have nothing to gain by him and
nothing to fear from him, they are ready to
retract all their threats and repudiate all
their promises; they arc ready to deny
they ever knew any man of the name of
* Johnson. True, there is here and there a
newspaper whose editor is idiot enough to
keep Johnson's name at the head of his
columns, but we shall soon see that flag
ignominiously hauled down.
We do not doubt that there are plenty of
men who would have been glad to have
seen the country ravaged and ruined again
by civil war; but all men who had brains
enough to bait a mouse-trap, knew that a
war for die sake of Johnson was impossi
ble. What shrewd financiers thought
nbout the chances of war was shown by
the price of gold and United States securi
ties, which varied scarcely one per cent, in
the very height and flurry of the impeach-*
ment excitement. They knew there was a
little man, sitting composedly in his office
at Washington City, quietly viewing the
situation through the smoke of his cigar,
ready when the time came to flank the
belligerent braggarts, as he had flanked
Johnson, and many a better man than he.
So, while simple-minded men were some
what frightened by the bellowings of the
braggarts, capitalists took it all coolly, and
were not scared “worth a cent.”
If the men who were going to rescue
Johnson from the clutches of the ‘•Hump
Congress” by force of arms ever intend
to perform their promises, it is time they
were about it. A few days more and his
fate will be decided, and they will have
nothing to fight for; for they are not quite
fools enough to go to war to put Johnson
back after he is once ousted from office.
NOMINATIONS^
Editor National Republican:
Dkau Sin—We are “sorter fixin up” at
this end of the district, for our Legislative
Representatives, and I learn that in the
county of Oglethorpe, and the Thirtieth
Senatorial District, the following ticket
has liecn agreed upon, to-wit: For Sena
tor—lion. James H. McWhorter; for Re
presentatives—Dr. Wm. W. Davenport
and Dr. F. J. Robinson. These men are
for Relief to the backbone and all over.
They arc for the Union, for Reconstruction
and for the Constitution of the United
States, and for that Constitution recently
enacted by the Georgia Constitutional
Convention, and upon which the Union
Relief Republican party of Georgia so
firmly and nobly places its organization !
They are for Union, Peace and Harmony
amongst all memliers of “our church,”
and will with cheerfulness support Col. R.
B. Bullock, for Governor. We all want a
new regime. “New Men! Progress and
Harmony amongst Ourselves 1” No worn
out “political hacks ” to war upon the peo
ple. No broken down “fossil remains” of
the dead past 1 But live men! Men who
can appreciate “the situation,'’ and can
grasp the “new-born idcus of the present.”
Men who can and will do their duty,
“come what will and come what may”;
and if wo secure the right sort of men in
our nominations for all the offices, thcr#
can be no doubt of success.
March *3, ltfllfi. 0u» Wiuuw.
From tha Atlanta Bra.
JUDGE COTTINGTS POSITION.
Thia gentleman, when answering to bie
name on Saturday, ae a delegate In the State
Nominating Convention, addreaeed the chair
aa follow*:
Mr President: I have felt aotuc doubt,
aa other delegates have, aa to my authority
to represent my constituents m a nomina
ting convention) but, upon considering'the
Suestion, I have arrived at a conclusion
ifTereut from those who have refused to uct
here from an apparent want ol authority.
It is true that my credentials only allow me
to act in the Convention called to frame a
Constitution) and I have none to act in a
nominating convention. But I take it upon
myself to ao so, because I believe that no
convention, appointed to meet at any time
before the ratification of the Constitution,
could, by any possibility, so well represent
the wishes of the people as this —that never
again would so full a representation of the
people bo lmd in a nominating convention
*s we have in this, and I nndertake to affirm
that no convention, called between this and
the election, would represent more than ono
third of the counties, and not that proportion
ol the people of Georgia. But in this body
are represented some 100,000 people. When
could it be expected that such a number
would again appear by thoir delegates 7 I
have been in several nominating conventions,
and in none have I known the people so fully
represented.
If the people do not choose to sanction
our action, they may repudiate the candi
dates we may hereafler nominate; but it
cannot be said, with truth, that the nomina
tion was unfair, and that the people were
not represented. Many gentlemen here will
recollect how nominations used to be made,
and the manner in which nominating con
ventions were heretofore constituted in
Georgia. Twenty or thirty men might get
together at a Court House and send delegates
to a nominating convention, and thus that
convention, representing perhaps not one
hundredth part of the people of the State,
dictated to them a candidate, and party ties
were strong enough to elect him. Will any
one say that this convention, representing
more than one halt of the people of Georgia,
is not a better exponent of their wishes than
conventions formed on the plan ot former
days 7'
For these reasons, then—that this Conven
tion represents the people more fully than
any that could hereafter be gathered, and,
besides, that it is impossible to get a better
expression of the will of the people in the
short time that must elapse before the
election —I feel no scruple in sitting and
voting in this Convention, and if my con
stituents choose to repudiate me and my
action, I shall submit cheeefully to their
decision.
ITEMS FROM HIE NEW Ell. 1.
Our platform is the Constitution, and
our next Governor will be Bullock.
Bcu. Hill is opposed to the Home
stead Bill. Bullock is for it, and so are the
people.
Bullock is a friend to the working
men, and the working men are for Bullock.
Joe. Brown is in for Bullock, and so
arc the “wool hat boys "
The last seen of Ben. Hill he was
going up a spout.
Bullock is an “Express man,” and
will prove too fast for dirt and road vehicles.
Bullock is a Railroad man, and Ben’s
crowd, like Pat, arc paying their way on
toot.
Ben Hill is down on Bullock, and
the people arc down on Ben. That’s the
way to tell it.
Will the “so-called” put out a candi
date ? If so, let it he Ben Hill, or some
other fellow equally as violent.
Ben Hill is down on the “Poor
Masses”—Bullock is for them. Ben Hill is
opposed to relief—Bullock is for it.
Ben Hill is down on the Constitu
tion. The people arc for it, therefore the
people are down on Ben.
The mechanics and working men
are all declaring for Bullock. Roast beef,
and good times ahead, boys, That’s the
talk.
Ben. Hill wants to roast and eat our
Bullock, but he can't quite do it. Ben has
been roasted too often himself to come such
games over others.
The so-called Democrats are trying to
shake Ben. off, but his friends say it “can’t
be did.” Their motto is “Ben. and Victory."
We say victory in the little end of a horn.
“so-called.” Well, it don’t matter, as it
takes men to vote. The voters happen to be
for Bullock.
Wo have an abiding confidence in
Ben. Hill’s want of judgment, good sense
and statesmanship. Ilis speech, as pub
lished in the Era this morning, is just the
talk for Bullock. Lay on the whip, Ben.,
for carery lick you hit Bullock will add ten
fold to his majority.
The so-called are looking around for
a caudidate with which to heat Bullock, but
up to this writing no arrangements had been
effected, Bullock is rushing ahead, and the
people, one and all, are cheering him as he
passes along, drawn by the great Recon
struction Locomotive’ Get off the track, ye
“so-called,” or there won’t be a grease spot
left of ye.

author on the tips ; together with a profile
view of Mr. Dolby in the background.
The Empress Carlotta has addressed to
the Pope a touching letter, imploring his
prayers for the soul of her unforluoate hus
band. The letter 1s written in very good
Italian, and exhibits no traces of the late
lunacy of the Empress.
In Boston, a few days since, a man named
John Oraig, seventy eight years of age, fell
against and upset a stove on which there was
a kettle of hot water that was spilled over
him, and scalded him so severely that he
died on the following day.
A number of wealthy females in Boston

The probability is that the Senate will do
but little or no executive business during the

A gentleman in St Cloud, Minnesota, says
that recently the mercury sank to forty de
grees below zero nnd froze, and a spirit
thermometer indicated forty four degrees
below. But so dry was the air, and so
brightly shone the sun, that little incon
venience was felt.
At a private dinner in Uoston, a few days
since, the table presented a most unique and
beautiful appearance. There was a solid
mass of flowers from one end of the table to
the other, leaving just room enough for the
plates at the edges, the guests being served
from side tables.
A veterinary surgeon in London, who has
been puzzling the public for some time past
by advertising for sale an article which he
calls “Hoplemaroma,” has now come out
with a remedy called “Neurasthenippons
kelcsterizo.” Ilis customers are said to ex
press the hope that his bills are shorter than
his name.
hhere is one culprit whose guilt every one
believes on sight. The intelligent reader
has already guessed that we refer to the
unfortunate who has acquired a black eye—
an ornament which no human being of
mature years will ever believe to have been
obtained by his neighbor accidentally, and
which no recipient ever will admit to have
been caused otherwise.
A Southern clergyman who officiated at a
Cincinnati church recently, stopped in the
middle of a long and tedious discourse, and
raised his hand as if to pronounce the bene
diction. to which the congregation responded
by rising, kneeling, etc. But the motion
was made only to adjust his surplice, which
being done he continued his discourse, and
the eongregration, with a general giggle,
resumed its position for listening.
There is no truth in the report that the
“Fat Woman” and “Giantess,” in escaping
from the burning museum, was owing to the
former getting wedged in one of the door
ways, and thus making a captive of her
companion. A much more likely story is
that they kindly remained in order to help
the elephant pack his trunk, which contained
a wardrobe of even more than Oriental
magnificence.
The Church of St. Charles Borroineo,
Sidney place, Brooklyn, took fire from the
heater and burned to the ground Sunday

ted at $20,000 and on the furtiture at

A valuable horse was lost in Fall river.
Mass., last week, by a singular accident.
Above the manger, at which the horse stood,
is a square hole in the floor of the room
overhead, through which the hay is dropped.
In the night, the horse managed, by climb
ing, to get his head through the hole in
quest of hay, and then so twisted his neck
that he could not withdraw his head. He
was found in the morning with his fore feet
in the manger, dead from hanging.
Some years since a prominent business
man, who began to “sow his wild oats” when
a boy, and hasn’t got through yet, attended
a colored ball in a certain town. After each
“breakdown” he noticed that a well near the
house, which, by the way, was not a deep
one, was resorted to by the men to quench
their thirst. Unobserved, while the dance
going on, he slipped out of the house
and moved the curb a few feet beyond the
well, and then waited the result. Presently
out came one of the dancers, nnd plumb to
the bottom of the well he went. Blowing
and puffing he came to the top and ex
claimed : “Gosh 1 who moved dis well since
I’se out here last?”
In the British House of Commons, on
Febryary 20th, the Secretary of tho Treasury
stated that notice had been giving termina
ting the postal convention which had gone
into operation between Great Britain and the
United States on January Ist, 1868. He
said that it had been found to require revi
sion on certain points, and that it was neces
sary that notice should be given to terminate
the treaty, and a correspondence was now
going on between tho postofficc in London
nnd the posteffice ot Washington with a view
to tho establishment of an improved conven
tion. One year’s notice was required to
terminate this postal convention, so that it
will not expire till the close of the present
year.
