The great Armagedden contest in this country between Constitutionalism and Centralism—for and against tho righto of the people and the rights of tho Btates- is fairly opened. On the one side of this issue, stand the Democracy; on the other stand the two wings of the Radical Dy nasty. It is time that every recoguized leader and organ of public sentiment had taken position on one side or tho other in this momentous conflict. Silence ou tbe part of sentinels upon the watch-tower, is no longer excusable or pardonable. The Democratic hosts of upwards of three million voters havo been trifled with long enough by cries cf “wait for thb wagon;” “wait Fon the lights of the New Hampshire and Connecticut elections;" “wait for the Cincinnati Convention;” “wait for Mr. Belmont’s CALL OF THE EXECUTIVE COMMITTEE.” It is very apparent now that all these cries of “Moil/” “ Wait!” “ Wait!" were only to quiet the Democracy until they could be betrayed by “trusted leaders and surrendered into tho hands of the enemy. The rank and file should “wait” no longer upon leaders. They should de mand, in county meetings and State Con ventions, that all who undertake to guide publio sentiment on the Democratic side, should take position—fall into line, get out of the way, or join one wing or tho other of the Radioal Dynasty. “ Those who are n jt for us are against us,” should now Jbe the watchword of the Democracy, if they would rescue our free institutions from the bauds of usurp ers in this hour of our country’s greatest peril. Euemies iu disguise should no longer be tolerated in their ranks. If any one heretofore imbued with Democratic principles desires Mr. Gree ley for President, let him openly avow his position. If any such think it bet ter to take Mr. Greeley uud not run a Democratic ticket, let him openly so de- cUro. There is nothing dishonorable in this. Honest, honorable mon will sometimes differ upon grave and great question''. We have perfect toleration for all such differences. Wliat we insist upon, is what the poople have a right to know, and that is, where their leaders and organs stand upon this exceedingly vital ques tion. Mr. Greeley is not only an ablo man, but a worthy representative of his Party; indeed, he is ouo of the master spirits, if not the very master spirit, that brought it into existence, and raised it (o Power. If auy one, therefore, attached to tho Democratic faith, for any reason what ever, is now disposed to tuko sides with this most distinguished chief of tho Radical Dynasty, it is certainly his right to do so; but it is a duty he owes him self, as well as his former assoc iates, that Iris position should be kuown. There are thousands, if not millions of Democrats, who do uot take that viow of the subject, and never intend to bow the knee to tho Baal of Radicalism un der the banucr cf Mr. Greeley or any body else. They do not intend to choose the chieftains now at tho head of tho Radi cal divisions. They iutend to run a man of their own choice, aud us their light will be a mauly one, they waut to know who is for them aud who against them in the conflict. To ono and all of our here tofore Democratic cotomporaries, there fore, we say “choose” forthwith, and let us know on which side, iu this contest, you will be found. A. H. 8. From the Terre Haute (Indiana) Journal. May 4Ur, 1872. The Cincinnati Nomination. The nomination of Horace Greeley for the Presidency by the Cincinnati Liberal Republican Convention, will take the country by surprise, as heretofore any mention of his name in connection with that high positiou has been received with a smile of deriaiou. He is a tole rably good man, in his way, full of crotchets sad vagaries, but we believe konest and conscientious ou most sub jects. Whst his strength may be, and to what extent he may draw off supporters from Grant, we are unable to predict at this time, but we doubt if any fret- wheimning enthusiasm is arousod among the people in his behalf. Certainly he cannot, nor can his friends, expect any consideration at the hands of tho De mocracy. For two generations he has been our bitter and unrelenting oppo nent and reviler, and it would be a low cf all self-respect for the Democracy to fajj^Horound a standard homo by Horace From the Philadelphia A*®, May 4th, 1872. The Nominations. The Pennsylvania Democracy have seen with great equanimity tho proceed ings at Columbus und at Cincinnati. The two Conventions have placed in nomina tion for tho Presidency men whose re commendations for that offico indicate the sense of tho country that constitu tional liberty is endangered through the license engendered by civil war, and con tinued by au administration alike ignor ant and reckless of the principles of free government. When the right to trial by jury and relief by habeas corpus first came before the highest legal tribunal of the land, Judge Davis joined the four Judges, umong them Judge Greir, of Pennsylya uia, who were willing to go fintbe>t in asserting tho great doctrine of free gov eminent. At Cincinnati, the Liberal Republi cans lmve placed iu nomination a dis tinguished journalist, w ho has been alien ated from the support of the “present’ administration by its persistent efforts to perpetuate a state of ebrouie discord at the South, iu the interest of the military aspirant to renomiuation. Tho signifi cance of tho nomination of Mr. Greeley is tliat even in tho ranks of Radicalism there is a strong desire for the restora tion of free civil government, and a true and cordial union of the States. When the minds of men are thus turning to Democratic principles, it imposts ou the Democracy the duty of consistent ad herence to them. The Democracy of Pennsylvania have never swerved from their devotion to the Constitution and the Union. It is no new born faith in them, and they have no occasion to learn it from new converts. Without depre ciating in any degree either of the two candidates who ure already before the country, wo think tho Democracy of Penn sylvania will desire to bring into the field a statesman who will secure the confidence and deserve tho support of all whoso aim is to restore free civil government, and purify the administration of it. It were a slander upon tho great party that con tain* iu its ranks so many puro and eminent men to suppose that it cannot furnish a lit representative of its own principles. Such a one can and will be found. As an example of our meaning, we will not hesitate to name our eminent Jurist, Chief Justice Thompson, ia whom a consistent and unexceptional record, high integrity, and proved abilities will render him acceptable not only to tho Democracy, but to many who have sought at Cincinnati and Columbus to nominate a candidate that shall offer just such guarantees of personal character and civil training us aro united in one, who, as much as any many now living, deserves the title of “Pennsylvania’s favorite son.” We do not at all doubt tho success of a campaign under his leadership. He would carry Pennsylvania by a great ma jority, The Democracy would support him with enthusiasm. Tho really siu- coro friends of reform would prefer him to General Grant or Mr. Greeley. Wo have not cherished any doubt that tho Democratic Convention would, in duo time, nloco a Democratic candidate in tho field. Let him be one to meet the requirements of tho times, ns plainly in dicated in tho current of political events, and these will result, as they aro now evi dently tending, to tho re-establishment of tho principles of tho Constitution, and in placing the administration of them in competent; bands. FROM MONTGOMERY TO EUFAULA — THE MONTOOMEY A EUFAULA RAILROAD— ALL ABOUT ECFAULA, ITS PEOPLE AND ITS BU8I- HISS—A VETERAN, AO., AO. Editors Atlanta SunYour correspond ent left Montgomery to visit Eufaula in tho interest of your excellent State Rights Journal. The Montgomery aud Eufaula Rail road passes through some of tho beat farmiug lands in the South. It is grati fying to observe the improved aspect of the farming interests in this sootion. On the train, I found Mnj. Dunham, the Superinteudaut of the Road, and beoarae his debtor for many courtesies. Ho is a native Georgian, and a worthy son of tho Empire State. Arriving at Eufaula, I took quarters at the Cliowulla House, under the manage ment of the accomplished Mr. N. C. Vaughn, and was soon iu association with some of tho noblest men of this or any other age. While appreciating the kindness of the citizens generally, I will be pardoned for referring specially to a few sacred to hal lowed memories, and who retain, in the midst of adversity, the commanding qualities of true gentlemen. Of th are Shorter, Cochran, Pugh and Johnson. It was very gratifying to mo to meet Dr. E. Sheppard, whom I mustered into the Confederate service in 1801, at the ago of 71. At first I was uot inclined to receive him, but his ardent patriotism overcame all objections, and he was reg ularly sworn in as a private soldier. He served gallantly in the battles hround Richmond, and was afterwards made a Confederate surgeon, which positiou he filled honorably and usofully. He seems to havo lost none ot his patriotism. From the Messrs. Bray, hardware merchants, I received highly appreciated kindnesses. Their’s is one of the most complete establishments I have over seen, and they are in the midst of a successful business. Eufaula is one of the most beauti ful cities iu Alabama, situated upon a high bluff on the Chattahoochee river. It extends iu a piano for over a mile, and then it rises ou hills that overlook the country for many miles, even far away into Georgia. Most of these lulls are covered with elegant residences ; but on ono of them tho Union Female College is situated—an institution that has been a blessing in the post, aud promises to continue such iu the future. Most, if not nil, the Christian denom inations havo houses of worship in the city. Those of the Presbyterians aud Baptists are of recent construction, aud are architectural gems. Altogether, tho city presents indica tions of thrift and refinement which aro gratifying to every true lover of Alabama and her people. Thus, Messrs. Editors, I have given you on imperfect sketch of one of the most pleasant trips I ever made. I found The Sun highly prized at Eufaula. Indeed, I cannot see how it could be otherwise, with so excellent a paper and bo appreciative a community. Yours, J. L. C. l'osTMaster at Rome.—From our dis patches in this (Thursday) morning’s is sue, it will be seen that Major Z. R. Har grove has been appointed Postmaster at Rome, vice Postmaster Sheibley. We know not whether Mr. Sheibley baa been removed or bos resigned, or been pro moted. Quite likely he has been re moved or given some other office, for ’tis said that officers “mnt resign.” This is especially true of a Grsntite carpet bagger. PROM Of R ROVING COURESPOID. I TELEGKAPH NEWS K.N'T AND AGENT. UNION TOINT, WOODVILLE, BAIRDSTOWN, AND ALL ALOKO THE LINE. Union Point, May 4th, 1872. Lear Sun: Having received au invitation from some of the leading spirits of the Union Point Sabbath School, to attend a celebration at Bairdstown, wo found our selves on Friday evening at the live little village of Union Point. We were the guest of Mr. J. B. Hart. The young people met at our Host’s House for a re- heraal of tho songs to be sung tho next day, and we saw tliat pains had been taken with the young ladies and gents iu their truiuiug by efficient teachers. Tho accompanimeut of Miss Emma, on her fine Organ, was charming, und gave an udditional zest to the entertainment of the evening. Tho young people of Union Point deserve no small meed of praise for their refined social enjoyments, their intelligence and superior attain ments t in delightful, soul-stirring vocal music—but more anon. Saturday, May the 4th, dawned upon us iu brightness, aud hearty and many happy faces were soon visible on the platform at tho depot, radiant with joy, ready to tuko the train for Bairdstown, tho place appointed for the festivities of tho occasion. The Uuion Point citizens know just how to get up an occasion of this kind. The moving spirits of tho place are hightoned, liberal aud lavish in their efforts to brighten the lives cf their children and dot them with snnuy spots which may be recalled with pleasure in after years. At 0 o’clock in the morning wu took tho special train with Sunday School children and their parents aboard. We sped along, and os the train hurried p ast fields and woods wo had timo to notice that cotton was up, and, here and there, some were chopping it out. Tiie season has been very propitious since tho warm weather set it; but we must haste along for the train only stopped long enough at Woodville to receive some more live freights, Woodville has two stores and a good school, taught by Mr. Wilson, 0/ Green county. Bairdstown is reached, and all is com motion, for the 100 children are landing; the officers uud teachers ar^ getting them in line; the banners aro advanced, and rapidly the little army is formed; and we hear that name old command, “Forward, march 1” ring out upon the air, and we aro in motion. We marched through tho village, greet ed by smiles of welcome from the ever hospitable people, and soon readied the grove near tho church, where we were ordered to halt. There we united with throe other schools, numbering about three hundred more, making upwards of four hundred children and teachers. It was not only pleasant to behold, but the heart bounds with delight when thinking that all this is done that the cause of the Lord may prosper. Bairdstown school was out in full force; so also was Stonewall. Peufield school was uot so well represented, on account of tho sickness of its Superintendent. The large church was crowded and all the school joined heartily iu singing the open ing piece—“All hail the power of Jesus’ name,” &o., after which prayer bv the Rev. J. It. Young, and a cordial welcome extended to all the visiting schools by Mr. Lee M. Lyle, iu u chaste and ele gant speech upon the spirit and objects of Suuday schools. Alter that “Water of Life,” by all tho schools, was sung iu a lively spirited manner, and with soul- stirring effect. The orator of the day, the Rev. B. M. Callaway, addressed the children and pa rents upon the Bible. It is impossible to giro even the principal heads. We will only suy his address was sublime, and showed much careful preparation. After Binging several pieces, the schools repaired to the grove, where everything that could tempt the appetite, wassprtud out upon a table long enough to aec modate all, <ind for an hour and a half wo did our best to cause the refreshments tofdisappcnr, but had to desist and leave the mothers and fathers to gather up the fragments. For two hours in the afternoon the schools of Bairdstown and tho Point en gaged iu a musical contest, and, believe us, deur Sun, it was a great treat. Tho victory swayed first from ono to tho other, und each seemed to excel. The singing was sweet, grand and professional. The style was very good. This is why wo said at tho start |tho Point school must have had good instructors, and tho same remark will apply equally as well tv Bairdstown and the Stonewall schools. Everything passed off'pleasantly; nothing occurred to mar tho enjoyment of any one. But all good things in this world must havo un end, end wo had timo only to note that this village has two stores, a good school, taught by Mr. Lee M. Lyle, about two hundred inhabitants, aud perhaps tho best carriage and wagon shops iu Georgia, owned by Messrs. Neal & Newtou. It is now in contemplation that the next reunion of the schools will be at ths ap propriate place of Uuion Poiut; and we hope at that time to bo still On tiie Go. Whitfield Count>. Tho Dalton Citizen is one of the papers that always lets the people know what is going on iu its bailiwick. From its issue of the 9th, the following items are taken: Tho fruit prospect iu this section was never finer than it is at present. The peach, apple, quince, cherry and pear trees are loaded with young fruit. The majority of our fanners are through with their corn planting, and tho corn wo learn, iR up several inches high—stand everywhere excellent. At the recent session of the Georgia Baptist Convention, held in Macon, tbe proposition from tho city of Daltou to givo $10,000 to the enterprise known as the Dalton Baptist Institute, was accept ed and the whole matter referred to the Board of Trustees of Mercer University, with power to complete the arrangements for tho establishment aud perpetuation of said Institution. A committee from the Board proposes to meet the citizens of Dalton and surrounding country ou the 1st of July next. Whitman has been driving some ten or fifteen miles into the country aud thus records his observations upon the wheat crop: We never saw this crop lookiug so promising at this season of the year.— Every field wo saw, and wo passed quite a number, looked green ami flourishing, much of which wu* heading out, with no sign whatever of rust. The yield, with out an accident, will be oue of the largest ever produced iu tho county, if tho wheat throughout its borders is as good ns that we saw. VIRGINIA. Lexikoton, Va., May 8.—A match game at base ball came off this evening, between the Shoe-Fly Club, of Washing ton and Leo University, and the Monte- valb, of the University of Virginia, re sulting in a victory for the latter, by a score of 24 to.21, on the 10th inning— the 9th being a tie. The game wa9 closely contested, and there was excellent playing on both sides. A largo crowd of spectators was present, and much excitement prevailed. Fuank. By the New York Associated Press.

We have examined the books of tho Receiver and Tax Collector. We flud the amount collected for 1871, $5,766 40 county tax..
