Wo have tkiu (lbtli Judo) lor tlie first time met with the prooeetlings and reeo lutioDB of the Democracy of Greene ooanty, in this State, at thoir meeting, held on the 4th inst. Taken oil together, we have not seen tho notion of any Democratic meeting lately, anywhere, that pleases ns better than this in the oounty of Greene. The great political truths annonnoed in the Desolations, are set forth in lan- guago of such unusual pcrspicaity and force, that we feel ossnred we cannot do the public, at this time, a greater service than to give them a reproduction entire in our columns. They need lo elucida tion—they speak for themselves, and will firs for oil time to oome—and we send them to oar readers in lien of farther editorial to-day. A. H. S. DEMOCRATIC MEETING. At a meeting of the Democratio party of Greene oounty, this day, held in the ooart house, On motion of Colonel Miles W. Lewis, Lorenzo D. Carlton, Ew)., was called to the chair, and QolaiuLun Heard request ed to act as Secretary. By request of the Ciiairmsn, Col. Lew is explained tho object of the meeting. Col. Lewis then offered the following ns a declaration of tho sentiments of the Democratic parly °1 Greene county: Wc, a portion of the Democrats of Greene county, having assembled mainly for the purpose of appointing delegates to represent us in tliu Convention to lie held in Atlanta on the 2Uth inst, deem it proper to declare, for their guidance, the following ns onr sentiments: Wo hold that the lost hope for the res toration of Constitutional liberty in this Republic rests npon Bnintaining the principles and preserving tho organiza tion of the present Democratic party. We hold to tho right brqneathed us by our fathers, of local State govern ment, and are opiiosed to the centrali zation of [lower in the Federal Govern- m We hold that the military should be ■abject to the civil authority, and that the privileges of the writ of AuW cur put "should be jealously upheld ■» the safe- guard of personal freedom.’ 1 •That the individual citizen should enjoy tho largest liberty consistent with pnblio order.” • "That there should be no Federal dictation of the internal policy of the several States.” “That each should be left free to en force the rights and promote tho well beiug of its inhabitants by such meatus as the judgment of its own people may prescribe." We hold that each Stato is Constitu Initially entitled to the rights growing out of tho foregoing fundamental prin ciples, and that too, not “subject to any aolemu Constitutional obligation” (npon the pert of the Federal Government,’') to maintain the equal rights of the citi zens." On the contrary, we hold that tho Federal Government is iiuder a "solemn Constitutional obligation" not lo interfere in thae mutters.- and tchen it dues no, it is a HMnrjtrr Jtoircl', an enemy to tie liberties i/the country, undo treacherous tyrant. AU of these troths prosent living is _jos—have I wen trampled upon and ig nored by the Radical party ever since it has Imos iu power; and have luul no friendly voiro raised lor their vindica tion that did not oome from tho lately ITere unanimously ailoptal, irilhoul amend• enl. The Yoicc of old Greene to her Demo- cratic friends sll over the land, is, you gsvo the euemy e good fight when they were unileil; they are now diriiled, and it is no time to throw down your arms— rush in and conquer. R. J. Dawson moved the adoption of the declarations read by Col. Lewis. Jos. L. Brown, Esq., offered the fol lowing as an amendment: Kesolrol, That we pledge ourselves to support tho nominees of the Baltimore Convention. This ameuduunt was op|>otsd by Col. Lewis and Copt. Hmitli, and advocated by Col Browu and Dr. Herria. After considerable discussion, the vole on the original declarations read by Col. Lewis, was ceiled for, and Ute said declarations unauimotlwiy adopted, without Us motion of W. H. Branch, K*q., the following resolution was adopted: ItsmUml, That vs hi artily indorse the administration of his Kxcclkw/ Gov- art or James M. Hoiiib. Ou i iwSion of Dr. Tin anas 1’.

TELEGRAPH NEW lijr Ute New lurk Associated Cross. WASHINGTON. U« |»oil of the Agricultural Uepartnirnt Acreage aud to ml 11 Ion of tha Cotton Crop —The ieoag-pap-anU-ahort-dajr Movement— t'oinmlsslaner Dougl Astonishes the Tobaeeo Men. etc. Washington, Juno 18c—The following: is ■ brief synopsis of the statement o 1 tho area and condition. of the present ootton crop, which.trill appear in the Jans report of ^ie Department of Agri culture. An ineiease in tho cotton area is re polled iu every State. A very small pro portion of the oOnnty returns show an ■uoreiee of acreage. Planting was gener ally retarded bv a protracted season of ' * Ids that were planted late Nuts for Greeley Men to Crack 7 Did Horaoe Greeley ever utter u Drill ocratie sentiment, of his own, in his life? Has he promised to adhere to Demo erstio priuoiples if elected President T If so, when and where ? Does bo propose the repeal of any ob noxious Radical law. Wherein does he differ from Grant in prineiple ? Will any Grecleyite crack these nnti for a ' .First Ward Democrat ? Consider Well# The followiog, which wo find in the Mobile llegisler of the 14th instant, no donbt Thun the able pen of Hon. John Forsyth, should be carefully pondered by those who are about to conclude that Greeley will be the next President: Don’t be Deceived.—Oar Greeley friends are greatly "enthused" and ex ultant when the telegraph announces that a Democratic Convention hers and another there, in different parte of the country, go solidly for tho Cincinnati platform aud for Greeley. But it would be muoh more to the point if, now and then, the wires were to bring ns the news that a Republican Conven tion bad done that same thing. Tbs gush ing and the hat tossing, unfortunately, is confined almost eiclc rively to Demo crats, and yet the Greeley gush in tlie South is based on the very idea that the Democrats are not strong enongh to elect s candidate of their own. Well, it we cannot elect a Democratic ticket by onraelves, how are we goingto elect a Republican ticket by ourselves J Worae than that, the Democratic party cannot even be united on Mr. Greeley, and there s no visible evidence that there are -uough bolters from the Republican par ly in favor of Greeley to make up the Democratio defection. Theso things must be thought of. A blind hurrah does not win on soy field of straggle unless there are Bolid forces behind it.— With Greeley bearing the flag, these forces are not in sight. A Northern View# The Alloiitowu.Fenusjlvanio, Democrat says: The Deoiocratic party will never abandon orsacrilice its priucMesor dis solve its organization. A Democratic oandidate, a man of pare and noble mo- litiA, must be chosen at oar national convention, and if the Liberal Republi cans wish to beat Grant and enjoy an honest administration, let them unite with us to attain that end." This we flod republished in the Hills boro, New Hampshire, Gazetl, with ap proval. We liud the sumo sentiments in many Northern Democratio papers. Greeley is not half as strong among Northern Democrat! as many in the South repre sent him to be. ftmvca County. A Democratic meeting was held at gjlvania on the 10th inst., at which the following was adopted: Resolved, That we are opposed to the civil rights bill, the so-called Ku-Kluz lows, disability and other infamous enactments, and high tariff pro clivities of tho Republican party, aud believing that the nominees of the Oiu- oinuati and Philadelphia Conventions, for tho Preaidency of the United States, aro equally obnoxious for thoir support to these measures, we cannot consent to support either of them; bnt, neverthe less, are willing to abide the decision of tho lialtimoro Convention, trusting to the wiadom and patriotism of the assem bled Democracy of the nation. drouth, and fiel occasioned Borne trouble in obtainini perfect stands; bat the tecent rains am renewed efforts in replanting have finally M’Ctuvd stands of average complement. Tho percentage of increase in area, last year’s crop being thp basis of com parison, is us foliowa:JS*ortli Carolina, 1G; South Carolina, 9; Georgia 12; Flor ida, 10; Alabama, 11; llississippi, 10 Louisiana, 11; Texas, 18; Arkansas, 1G: Tennessee 12. ,Tho average increase throughout the cotton States will approx imate 13 per cent. Texas has naturally made the largest relative increase, not only having enjoyed a favorable season for plauting, but, also, during the past year, having received accessions of iw migrants, who are cotton planters. The condition of the plant through out the cotton section ia very nearly t fall] average. Separating tho Atlantic from tho more Westerly States, t^e former staDd a little below an average. The latter are fully np to the standard of fair condition. The drouth which E revailed in April, and the first half of [ay, delayed tlie growth, and the cold nights, iu the more Northern belt, had i further retarding effect; but the abund ant ruins and general temperature, which followed, kavo invigorated and advanced the crop. The following figures represent the oondition of outtou in the several States, one hundred standing for an average: North Carolina 96, South Carolina 92, Georgia 9G, Florida 95, Alabama, 105, Mississippi 100, Louisiana 104, Texas 100, Arkansas 98, Tennessee 101. The larger number of men at the Concrete Works refused to resume labor to-day, unless the time ware reduced from 10 to 8 hours, and compensation in creased from a dollar and fifty cents to two dollars a day. The Superintendent of the company refused to acoede to their demands, explaining as the reason that its contracts were based on wages here tofore paid tho strikers. Three hundred or more sat on the curbstone muoh of the day, waiting to hear from laborers at other poiuts, thus indiouting a great strike. The House of Delegates kavo, unani mously, passed a bill o^stituting eight hours a aavs work and two dollars a days pay, for laborers ou work under the con trol of the District Government The tobacco manufacturers, who have been storing largo quantities of tobacco in bonded warehouse siuco the Gth of June, tho dav when the new revenue law was signed by the President, are as tonished at the decision of Commission er Douglas—that tobacco, put iu bond sinoo that date and withdrawn for con sumption, must pay the present tax of 32 cents per pound. The Commissioner says the wording of the law is to that effect and that ouly the tobacco in bond on that day is entitled to be withdrawn aftor July 1st, at the new rate of 20 cents per pound. Telegrams and letters, in largo num bers, were yesterday received, from mer chants in New York, Philadelphia, Bal timore atid Richmond, asking if there is not some mistake. Mr. Douglas replied that he had no discretion in the matter, and the parties aggrieved must appeal to Congress for relief. A number of tobacco dealers are under the impression that after July tho 13th they will be entitled to a refund of the difference in the old tax of 32 cents, and tho new tax of 20 cents, on all tobacco in their possession. Commissioner Doug las is proparing a letter to the effect that suchapplicationssre useless, and no such provision is made in tho new law. ^Washington, Juno 18.—The President has re-appointed James Nimo, Jr., Su pervising Inspector General of steam boat!!. The Cabinet considered merely rou tine business. On and after July 1st, 1872, every person who sells of offers for sale, manu factured tobacco, snuff, or cigars, exoopt manufacturers of those articles, who sell only their own products, at the place of production, will be required to pay a special tax, at the rate of five dollars per aunum, without regard to tho amount of his annual sales. The exemption of persons whoso an nual sales do not exceed a hundred dol lars, is repealed by tho new law. Tho Treasury Department, in answer to numerous inquiries, has decided that on and after the first day of July next, and until the first of October, tea and coffee produced east of the Cane of Good Hope, aud imported into the United States, from points west thereof, will not bo charged with the discriminating duty of ten per cent, now collected on impor tations of this character; but, by the 3d section of tho new tariff law, this duty will be rc-imposcd on and aftor October 1st, 1872, on the aaid articles. rilUE PEOPLE HAVE CHOSEN*— 1 Th« •iporl.-nc® A ot fori Ebb cmtIbcmI kb lnWilifcot public hfalfov Kfl BAlBMOta iBVOlVtBC vwIbm K*d Irrl- Ubtlitr *f Ik* BtoBUMh. obstructions is tha bowsla, k bkctoM eoBttttOB ©t tk* Mv*r sad mttoub liability Tarrant's BOsnrssosnt Bsltmsr Aperient Is tha aur©©( aofast »«J wiflaat rwaady.

Two fights oocurred near Weatherford, in which four whites were wounded and two Indians killed. Two Indians were oaptured and lodged in Weatherford jail. The commanding ofiioer of Fort Rich ardson is said to have gone to Austin to consult with General Augur regarding this invasion, and the latter is reported to have telegraphed for two more regi ments of Cavalry, to report immediately at the points threatened by the raiders. Judge Hubbell says there is no doubt in tho minds of well informed Texans, that a big Indian war is at hand. Many Settlers are leaving their homes.
