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.

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. GEE Ell AL ITEMS. The Cincinnati Mercantile Library lias nearly 30,000 volumes. There are more than one thousand Odd Fellows in Harrisburg, i’a. The annual salary of the postmaster at Van Buren, in the northern part of Maine, is $2. Artcmus Ward would call that hefty. The law in Salt Lake requires young men to marry at the age of nineteen or pay a forfeit to Brigham of S2OO. Little girls believe in the man in the moon —big girls believe in the man in the honey moon. In Austria, the Minister of Public Instruc tion has ordered the adoption of gymnastic exercises in all the Government schools. The chess champion of the world, Paul Morphy, has emerged from his retirement. He played, in Paris, four games with Mr. Steinilz, losing one and drawing three. St. Albans, Vt., claims to bo the butter metropolis of the United States. It fur nished nearly three million pounds last year. In a church near Toledo, Ash Wednesday was celebrated by a wedding, a christening, a light, and a funeral. Thus all possible tastes were consulted. A young man who recently took unto himself a wife says he didn’t find it half so hurd to get married a.I he did to get the furniture. It is said Dickens recently sent his sister in-law in Chicago $5,000. flis friends give ae a reason for his not assisting her before that he did not know of her poverty. Gen. Hancock has asked to be relieved from the commend of the Filth Military District, because he can’t see things throogb General Grant’s Union spectacles. A Louisville butcher named Kriel mur de-ed his wife brutally last Saturday, at tempted to murder his sister-in-law and failed, and more sorrowful yet, failed in an attempt to commit suicide. The newest wrinkle out is the "Dickens collr-.” It is ornamented with two rose bnds and a likeness of the distinguished 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 and vicinity, are contribuiing money for the purpose of building a club house, one of the rules of which will be that no gentleman shall enter except by the unanimous consent of the members. Horses in Australia area drug in the mar ket, and cannot be got rid of at any price. Two hundred were bought at tweuty eight shillings apiece to feed pigs with, and acorn pany purchased 1,000 uoble steeds for the purpose of boiling down the carcasses. The richest congragation in New York, except that of Trinity Church, is one of Jews, who are building a synagogue on Fifth avenue; the next in point of wealth is that of St. Bartholmew, which numbers Wm. B. Astor nnd Commodore Vanderbilt among its pew owners. The probability is that the Senate will do but little or no executive business during the trial of the President. The Committee on foreign affairs, of which Mr. Sumner is chair man, will, it is understood, postpone all action on foreign appointments during this period. Richard Nichols, who successfully navi gated a six ton fishing boat from England to Australia, has just lost his life iu an attempt to navigate the streets of London. He was knocked down at a street crossing by a cart laden with live pigs, and almost instantly killed. The late George Babcock, of Brooklyn, Mass., bequeathed $31,000 for charitable purposes, among which were the sums of $5,000 to American Baptist Home Mission ary Society, of New York; SIO,OOO to American Baptist Missionary Union, and SIO,OOO to Waterville College, Maine. 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 morning, just before daybreak. The con secrated vessels and a portion ol tho sacri ficial garments were saved, but the paintings, sculpture and organ were lost with the building. The loss on the church is estima ted at $20,000 and on the furtiture at $12,000. 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. Tho reports of poverty in London are terrible. Numerous comraitteos arc at work rolieving distress in that city, besides the regular officer* of tho poor law board. One of theso subordinate committoes reported that in a wook it had spent $1,750 in giving 14,000 persons sixpence apiece. In tho Bethnal Green District it was statod there wero about 120,000 people suffering from poverty, e SPECIAL NOTICES. gpr- CONSIGNEES PER CENTRAL ILBOAD, March 18, lUB.—J L Mini, 3 8 Wilson, J O Bailie A Bro, B 8 A TANARUS, Plumb A L, E O'D, T J Appel, P Bamberger, Bean A A, E R Schneider, T R Rhodes, C B, C O, T 8 Nick erson, T Richards A See, B B A Cos, P Doris, W A R A Cos, W M Jacoby C B Day A Cos, J Green, J A Gray, Mullarky Bros, J Dlankensee, Cooley F A Cos, V Richards A Bro, R McKnighr, War ren Lane A Oe, J M Clark A Cos, I T Heard, B A Stovall. .
