Y r ou will succeed, go ahead, is selected Chairman had accepted his appointment, and before, therefore, the} 7 had a complete organization or even the number required by the reso lution of the Convention providing for the formation of an Executive Com mittee. The subject to which I allude is the selection of candidates in the approach ing election, with reference to their eligibility under existing so called laws, and the certainly of their being allowed; to take their scats if elected. The recomendalion which some mem bers of the Committee, in its unorgan ized and in complete state, have given to the people on this subject is already receiving different interpretations. For my own part 1 am at a total loss to im agine how any man elected to Congress from this State could have anv “cer- allowed to take his seat without avowing his uncondition al adhesion to the creed of ihc Radical part} 7 . If the recommendation means this it will be promptly repudiated by every true Democrat in the United States ; and I will not do the members o‘ the Committee who put forth the recommendation, the injustice to be lieve for a single moment lhat they in tended it to teach to this extent Nor | can 1 beiicve, as some suppose that j they intended *i.o advise the people to I put up only such candidates as can lake the iron-clad or test oath.

It is the more binding effect upon tho Radical i j,j ea that members, than so much blank paper.— forts, and they are not far wrong. They openly declare that they legislate bonds then repudiate them. There is a plan by which those bonds conld be repu diated, and we believe the next legislature will act upon the plan. At the proper time, it will all be plain enough, and the modus itjyerandi successful ; no matter into whose hands the bonds nre found.

In our opinion the great majority of the people of the North regardless of party, are against us, and rather endorse the course that Congress has thought prop er to pursue ia its preecriptiou. We have no great overweening confidence in tbe great love of the Northern people for the sacredness of the Constitution. So think ing, we do not feel disposed to test them or bazzard oar interest by making an is sue, no matter how just it might be. He who goes among wolves will very apt to be bitten, unless he is so backed that lie feels perfectly secure in the experiment. We prefer to let such an issue sleep for a season longer. It is not dead by any means, and when we shall awaken it at the proper time, it will spring up full arm ed and equipped and planoplied in the ar mor of truth as prescribed by the Constitu tion. LEGISLATIVE COMMITTEE. *+ +' “■*' Our community entertained Friday last, a Committee appointed by the legislature to ascertain the relative value of the State property located in this city,and the Ogle thorpe. University buildings iu Midway. The 1 ody we learn caine to no definite coiiMusion, only that tbe main Capitol Edifice v'as a much more substantial one . tban at first imagined, and the Executive 31 ansiou a little palace within itself,hence the propriety of an exchange between the State aDd tile Trustees of the Oglethorpe buildings was douhtlul. The Committee in their wisdom sought a compromise, however, offering to frame a bill, to give the Governor’s Mansion to the Trustees, in ezch 'ogc for tbe Oglethorpe grounds aijd buildings, where a College of colored people couid be located at a mere nomi nal expense, whilst tlie grand old Capitol must bo mutilated, framed as it were to suit the purposes of a first class Agricul- of all kind from that sectiou. It will be, we understand, a great affair, aud the proper steps have been taken to make it such. The special pride of A'lanta just at this time, is the H. I. Kimball Hotel, that is hiring ert ;ted. It will be a grand build ing and no mistake. It fronts on Piior Street 210, Railroad street 1G3, and De catur street 1G3 feet, and contaius 317 rooms exclusive of stores aud offices. It is six stories high exclusive of the base ment. Will be open on the J7lh of Octo ber 1870, Crittenden & Go., Managers. The M essrs. McComb. of Milledgeville, will also be associated in the management of the House. Mr. Kimball will accept our thanks for the fine large photograph of his house, be so kindly presented us. We have it in e.jv office and our readers iu the city aud county are invited to call in and see a fine picture of a very fine house. The house when Unfilled, will present a verj attrac tive appearance, both externally and in ternally. The dining and ball rooms are beautifully frescoed, especially, the Ball room is really elegant and tasty. Savannah should see to it that she has a house every way its equal, and we hope yet to see the Pulaski House enlarged and its arcliitectual style greatly improv ed. r I he travel to Savannah is growing every yea*, especially, from the North, invalids coming South to winter. A fine largo Hotel with the latest improvements is the thing needed in our Seaport city. The general Depot Building when fin ished, will he quite an elcgaDt and com modious affair, aud something of an orna ment to the city. We also paid tho Legislature a visit looked in upon a body the like of which we hope we may never see again legisla ting for the State. If they could see rights of others ; as for 3Iiliedgeviile, site has taken the Capital and Oglethorpe Col lege from us, and the next thing we fear, she will want our grave yard as an orna ment to set off her own. *S!ic is welcome to the Penitentiary, and may have it at any time she calls fur it. But after all, we rather admire the Phoenix City. Central Railroad f; Banking Ca, We were in Atlanta when the House I refused to extend the Charter of the above { Company. We thought, at the time,there was more of prejudice and hate to the I Road than reason iu the refusal. We are j glad, however, to state, that the action of the House was reconsidered and the Charter extended. It was wise, proper and just, and an absolute necessity to the people. The argument that the Central Road is a monopoly, is in the abstract an unjust charge. All monied corpora tions or a monied man. is a monopoly. C'or porations as well as individuals, will use j there means to advance their interests, i and who has a right to reflect upon them, ! It is like giviug onea horse and yet compel ling him to walk. All that the people de mand, is fair and honorable competition, and no efforts made to throttle such move ments. SAVANNAH. Our Savannah exchanges every now and then gives to its readers the informa- ion that Savannah merchants can dupli cate any bill that country merchants may make in New Yoik. So far as tho Savan nah papers are concerned, they have ever been awake to tho inte-rest. of their city, and if the merchants would only by a sen whole subject ol eligibility of’candi dates as aiiecicd bv so-called disabil- j ities, lias been leit by the National j Democratic organization and by the Democratic Stale Convention, without any recommendation at all—leaving the members of the party everywhere perfectly free to shape their action ac cording to their own convictions of principle and policy in the dillerent localities. But since the subject has been brought belore the public in a quasi official form by members of the Committee with which 1 am offieia lly connected,! deem it tlue to myself to make known my own distinct and strong convictions as to the course re quired by sound policy and sanction ed by sound principles. As to members of the Legislature, I ' think the people should select only j those who are free Irom all the so call- i ed disabilities; and this simply as a matter of policy. The Legislature will be subject to the manipulation of the dominant party at Washington ; and that party will certainly exclude Irom it all persons who may be sub- jecL to any of the disabilities which they have prescribed for aud attempt ed to fix upon, that class of officers. For the Legislature we have abundanl sound material which is free from al! disabilities prescribed for that class ; and by electing a Legislature from this material, we shall cither get a sound administration of Stale affairs or else drive the enemies of constitu tional liberty into the perpetration ot some new outrage, and thus pile up and accelerate the retiibution which awaits them at l lie hands of an indig nant people. It must be borne in mind that the iron-clad, or test oath, has not yet been required for members of the Legislature. Members of Congress stand on a authority than Congressional enact- menLatMl Presidents! proclamations. There arc, and can be, no disqualifica tions or disabilities for members of Con gress but such ^ as are prescribed by the Constitution itself and by ihe Con stitution I mean that sacred instru ment in its purity as contra-distin guished from the so called l4thaud 15th amendments. This doctrine was solemnly and repeatedly adjudicated by Congress itself in its better days. It has never been violated but by Radical revolutionary violence. And never let it be forgotten that this viola tion now perpqtraied in the name, and under color of the 14th and 15th A- mendmenis, was equally perpetrated by the same revolutionary party be fore the passage of either one of those so-called amendments. I remark just here in passing that the 13th Amend ment abolishihg slavery stands upon an entirely different tooting, and, in my judgment, constitutes a valid part of the Constitution. This doctrine— that the only possible disqualifications or disabilities for members of Congress are those to be found in the Constitu tion itself—always observed in tbe better days of the government, and violated only by revolutionary Radi calism,will certainly be respected and enforced by every true Democratic Congress in tbe future. 1 think, therefore that we should select members ot Congress without the 6ligh*esi regard to so-called disa bilities, except that we should not fail to send at least some who are subject to them, and who have ability to show their invalidity and enormity. They must have a hearing on the question of their right to seats, and that ques tion, well argued on the theatre of Congress, would shake this country from centre lo circumference. Our strength lies in attack—in attacking the usurpation and enormities of the party who are seeking to overthrow 7 our whole system ot government by first crushing out the Stales which stand as the obstacle in the way of their schemq of centralization and consequent unobstructed public plun der. Our strength is in the tru,h, and their weakness is it. their guilt. Our policy is not to shrink from the con test, but to wage an unremitting war j on the field of truth and reason ; and we must briug forward such issues as will reveal the malignity of their de signs and the enormity of their guilt. It is a time when cowardice is folly and weakness, and courage is wisdom and strength. We are invincible on ihe issues if they are rightly made; and let us remember that nobody ever gained a victory by running away from the battle-field. These outline ideas may fife enlaig- ed if the Committee shall hereafter submit an address to the people of Georgia. Yours, very respectfully, LINTON STEPHENS.

The detectives are “tumb ling” to the man they think to use their peculiar vocabulary.

This is the way the people respond to Mr. Stephen’s injudicious and suici dal counsel. Let this be thundered into the ears of those who advise the ppople to cut their own throats that the day for such monstrous folly is over and that henceforth all men who are guilty of giving .uch counsel must stand out of the way or be swept into obscurity by the ground swell of popu lar condemnation.
