Wcunktat Mobnino, Mat 15, 1872. “Olm.tb.LaO AT>iwrrwtl We we deciJedljT^ Ithe opinion that the Demonrnej should hold their Nation- al Convention end pnt forward a Demo- oratio candidate for the Freoidencj; and we an as deeidedlT of the opinion that the parto will demand it This has been onr opinion all the while. We are utterly opposed to grounding the Democratio arm a. It is truly ana emphatically the party of reform and restoration of the Qeoeral and State Government* to hon est administration. For these reason* we have oontended earnestly for the m i organisation of the party for a ght on its anoient principles. The division in the Republican ranks make* it all the more important that we should pursue this policy. Democrats should be slow to choose between Greeley and Grant. They should not allow themselves to be overawed by any droumatanoe like the Cincinnati Convention, the ohief result of wbioh is in the breaking of the back-bone of the Republican party. Let us wait and see the effect of this Convention and not too hastily throw up our bands and shout “hurrah for Oreeley I” We do not know bis strength in hi* own party. He may C t be repudiated. We are not partiou- :ly invited to join the Liberal Repub lican*. Therefore, let Democrats be very cautious and oircumspect in declar ing them in favor of the Cincinnati nominee*. They may regret their haste. If, in the wi»dom of a National Demo cratic Convention, it become* necessary in choosing between evils, to give Gree ley the support of the party, then it will be time to so dcolare ourselves and sot accordingly. Don’t “go offhalf-cocked,’’ and oommit the party against itself. From the Southerner and Commercial (Borne, Ga.) MajS, 1870. A Square Old Fight. “It’s a long lane that never turns.” The Democratic party may lay this flattering unction to their souls at last. For twelve years they have been whipped because of the atroDg disseu- sions that agitated their own counoils, and the perfect unanimity with which the Republican party oomluoted its cam paigns In 1880 A. Lincoln slipped into the Presidential chair because the Democratic party split on Douglass and Breckenridge. In tho New York Convention that nominated Seymour and Blair was so divided that Grant reaped an easy viotory. Divisions, dissensions and personal partiaanry have been the rocks on whioh the party has been ofton wrecked. On the other hand, the Re- G blioan party has always been noted for striot party discipline. “ This lane has turned at last 1" q^^^r^s^oon^tly or is hopelessly split Greeley's mends have organised for an active oampaign. A glanoe at our telegrams will show that they are determined to make a stubborn fight Grant's friends of oourse are de termined to keep him on the traok. Con sequently the Radios! vote in the (joining campaign will be terribly divided. The policy, then, will be for the Dem ocrats, colid and hopeful, to press in their straight candidate, nominated on a straight platform. Let us look at this a moment 1st There are several Btatcs in whioh the Republicans bavs a majority, as shown in the late campaigns, of only from one to five thousand; for example, New Hampshire, Illinois, Indiana, Penn- nivania and Oonneotiout That is, if the Democrats stand square to a Demo cratic candidate, and for any reason three or tour thousand Radioala are won from the support of the Radical candi date in these States, they must fall into the Democratic line. The only question then is, can Mr. Greeley win three or four thousand Republicans from the sup port of Grant in these States. He oer- tainly can, and in some of them he will gain fllty thousand. It this is the case then, the Demo- orgts have a long row to weed. They can cortainly curry Georgia, New York, Kentucky, Alabama, Delaware, Mary land, North Oaroliua, New Jersey, Cali fornia, in a square fight. They would certainly gain half of the doubtful States, which leaves us only one class of States to oonsider, viz: Mississippi, South Carolina, and the negro majority States. In regard to these States, we feel no fear. The Liberal Republicans will so split that vote that tho white* can walk in with ease. From all quarters the prospect looks bright. Let Democrats stand square, and there is no fear of the future. Let Greeley and Grant fight it along, and by nominating a good Demoorat, our people may spring into power.

ELATION" INTO COLUMBIA COUNTY. Few of the peo( le of Georgia are aware that among the many new sects of relig ionists, which, within the last half cent ury, have sprung np in the Northern States, so fertile in fanaticism, one of re- oent origin has fixed npon Columbia county as the locality, in which its boats are to be gathered “in these latter days.” From a private letter received from a gentleman formerly resident in Atlauta, und well kuowu here, who is now sojourn ing near Barzelis, we learn that tho fol lowers of one Mr. Curry, who is desig nated by them as “Elijah,” are actually making a settlement about four miles be low Liberty Point, on the old Columbia road to Augusta, and about fourteen miles from that city. They designate their new home as the 'Happy Land of Canaan." They have purchased a small tract of land, including residence, quarters and out-buildings, known as the Starnes place, recently occu pied by a Northern man named Starnes, who came there since the war, carpet bag in hand. The old residence, quar ters, bams, gin-honso, etc., have been renovated and fitted up, and are now oc cupied by the faithful followers of the modern Elijah. Stove-pipes protrude through all the roofs, and everywhere around are indications of preparations for a dense population. The land is poor, with but little fencing, and uncul tivated. But we will lotouroorrespoudentspcak for himsolf: ‘Upon drawing up in front of the main building, my attention was first at tracted by a number of ladies engaged in a game of croquet They all, or nearly all, had the peeuliar look and dialect of regular “dowu-easters.” A number of mechanics were engaged on tbo frame work of a large church. Theso, too, had the peculiar stamp of Puritanism upon their features. Several were observed who seemed to be foreigners. To one of these—a Scotch-Irish carpenter—I addressed myself, and after n few re marks upon general topics, put to him several direot questions, to which his re plies were evasive and shrewd. Clonvinoed that he was not the man from whom to obtain much definite in formation, I turned elsewhore in my searoh. At this junoture, several “school marms” approached, but after one or two remarks they retired. The next individual I met, was a tall maD. I think he was a westeru man, and from bis manner and bearing, I supposo he had been a teacher. I asked, “is this Mr. Curry ?” (Mr. Curry is the “Flijah” of these people.) My inquiry seemed to please him, but ho informed me tbat Mr. Curry was absent.” How many of your people are here at present ?” I asked. From sixty to ono hundred. tVeare only preparing for those who are to maxim. Finding that 1 Lad touched a tender |>oiot, and was not likely to obtain any 'further information, I left. I will add that they observe Saturday as their Sabbath.” ‘The people in the neighborhood are divided in opinion as to whether the coming of these ‘Disciples of the New Revelation’ among them will prove bene fleial or otherwise. They have already spent a considerable amount of money, and if they abandon them, the buildings will bo useful for somo purpose or other. Such a result is confidently oipected, as the uureleDting logic of events must, sooner or later, demonstrate the absurdi ty of their lauaticu! delusion.” TELEGKAPH NEWS -*• WASHINGTON. Ahaat the Craps. The Griffin Midile Georgian, of the 14tb, has the following: , The drouth is creating some uneasin amongst the farmers, the ootton crop suffering most. Corn is doing very well, though it needs rain. Wheat, every thing considered, is doing well, while oats is suffering. Gardsns are in s parob ed condition. The Pike oounty correspondent of the Middle Georgian gives the following from hiaseotion: No rain tor a month; wheat doing bad ly; oats about exhausted; the poorcet stands of ootton you ever sew; oorn do ing pretty well, though email; gardens dried up. We are now working and re planting ootton; the soil being exceed ingly dry, it will fail to oome np, and if it does, will die for the want of moisture. Those of ns who ere baying guano, corn, baoon, Ac., on time, will do well to “woodbine.” Pon'A Taka Wall. A SL Mery's (Ga.) correspondent of the Savannah Morning Metre, writing on the fttb, says: The nomination of Greeley does not taka well in this section. There are very few white Republicans, and the mast of “"A, with the negroes, ere for D. 8. G„ the Demoersu, with, perhaps, an ■•renal exception, cau aee no differ- i between V. & 6. and H. G. How many aro to come ?’’ One hundred and forty-four tlieu- sand—perhaps many more. That num ber must como in order that God’s reve lation, (to Mr. Curry, aline 'Elijah,') may bo fulfilled." Haviug stated to him that I had called to got some definite iuformatiou oonoeruing the 'Disciples of tho '1 w Revelation,’ he gave mo the following ac count, wbioh I give, as nearly as I can re member, in hia own words. Wo aro,” said he, "God’s people. We are the faithful of the rcuiuuut of the ten loet tribes of Israel, and arc tho only true Jewa. If you aro not an Infidel or an AtheiBt I can prove it." Here he at tempted to eiuoidate many obscure pas sages in Biblical History, and to provo that “Elijah’s (Mr. Curry’s) revelation is the only true ono sinco Christ useouded into Heaven, end that “Elijah” is the only real and true vioe-Jerent of Christ ou earth. Ai such he is infallible in all things. The new revelation was made to "Elijah” eight years ago, sinoo whioh time they have beon steadily making converts. According to their belief, “punishment for sins msy consist in burning up as a tree," but there is no endless punish meat, no hell. Of thoso that have died only tho faithful can be resurrected to in herit eternal life. The others dio like brutes and have no future existence or punishment. The faithful who yet live, will suffer neither physioal nor spiritual death. “Heaven is to be located ou this earth. There is to be no resurrection of those who die hereafter. All human governments ore now undergoing gradu al disintegration and will finally bo des troyed." “ When the great fight whioh is pro phesied, does oome, the chosen will destroy their enemies with spiritual weapons." Their government is n religious mon srehy. “Elijah” has absolute con trol over every thing pertaining to the faithful. Every thing is owned in oommon, bat he controls. They do not expeot to farm much, but will spend near ly all their time in building oburchee. As to food, they are at ease npon that score. If they need it, manna will be rained down from heaven.” Though earth is their home, they mean by ‘manna being mined down from heaven,’ that God will sustain them when in need. He fed the other Elijah.” 'In reply to the suggestion that ra vens are rather scarce in that part of their heaven now known as Georgia, and that the surrounding conn try would hard ly sustain the inhabitants of such a city ss they design building, I was informed that “having no faith,” I cannot com prehend God's watchful core for his chos en people.” "They profess not to take any interest in politics, and in regard to social rela tions, their professed maxim is that “no one shall meddle with another's busi- Bj the New York Associated Preea. - ENGLAND. The Alabama Claims—Nr. Gladstone Makes a Statement. London, May 13.—In the House ol Commons this evening, Gladstone made his promised explanation of the negotia tions regarding indirect claims and the E osition taken by the government The otise was full and the galleries crowded. Gladstone, on rising, was greeted with cheers. He said, in order to allow an opportunity for discussion on the state ment/! be was abont to make, he would bring a formal motion for adjournment of tbo House. After alluding, in terms of praise, to the forbearance shown by Parliament during the controversy, he said he would commence his narrative of its progress with the 18th of January, when it first became known to him thstthe claims for indirect damages had been presented at Geneva, in the American caie. Her Majesty’s government protested, on the 3d of February, that indirect claims were not within the scope of tho Treaty of Washington, nor within tho intention of either party to tho Treaty. Secretary Fish replied, in April, that ho thought tho Geneva Hoard ought to decide the entire question. The tone of Mr. Fish's- dispatches was most cour teous. Xu the meantime, a communication was received from Mr. Sohenck, tho Ameri can Minister, suggesting another course, which would be acceptable to Kuglaud and America. This was an interchange of notes, setting forth tho views, terms and condition wherein both would agree to proceed to the arbitration. We ac cepted this suggestion, continued Mr. Gladstone, and carried on the correspou denco, altogether by telegraph. Wednesday, the 8th instunt, President Grant submitted a proposition to the United States Senate. On Thursday wo understood that the proposition was not precisely as wo understood it should bo, because of the brovity of the cable dis patch, on whioh it was based. On Fri day a draft, covering the letter of_ our views,was forwarded to Minister Schenck, and, ^though lengthy, was immediately telegraphed by him to Washington. Ou Saturday Mr. Soheuck informed Gran ville that the {President had accepted, and the Senate entertained that draft. Gladstone thought this fact was almost equivalent to ratification. Le begged tho furthor forbearance of tho House, now that the question was approaching a satisfactory issue, honorable alike to both nations. If successful in this nego tiation Her Majesty’s Government had a right to exact praise for settling a mo Tho last proposal, on tho part of Great Britain, sustained the position taken by tho Government in the Queen’s speech, at the begining of the present session. Gludstouo in conclusion said he thought ho was not too sanguiuo in pre dicting that the negotiations would result in a settlement which would redound to tho credit of both parties. As Gladstone took his seat there was loud and repeatedchoering from all parts of tho Houso. Disraeli followed with thanks to tho Prcmior for his statement. He should not seek to embarrass the government. Whatever differences existed on other subjects, all parties were united in a de sire for a peaceful and honorable settle’ ment of this one. In the Houso of Lords, Karl Granville mace a statement similar to Mr. Glad stone's. Euro* Bussell nguin postponed liis mo tion for an address to the Crown to with draw from the arbitration. Ho hoped tho questiou was no longer oue between the honor of tho Crowu und tho re-elec tion of President Grant. Earl Derby and tho Duke of Rich moud expressed hope. The new propo sition of the British Govern meut whs unambiguous. They had heard enough of misuuderstaudings. (oigrtMloHRl.
