There are a few Democrat* In Atlanta who wore greatly mortified when Gen. Longitreet went over to Grant We be lieve Gen. L. la now in favor of Greeley. By a atrange coincidence, the few Dem ocrat* to whom we allude, now find themaelvee in the same box with bo whom they eo decidedly oondemned for hie defection. Without knowing it these few have gone through the same process that Longatreet did. I* R* Ulglblal We would like to know if Hon. B. H. Hill is a citizen of Fulton county ? Whenjcalled upon to make returns of his property in Fulton county, did not he, or some member of his fam.Iy,decline upon the ground that he is a citizen of Clark oounty, and not liable to taxation here 7 We ask for information. When a petition, asking tbo City Council to donate or loan $50,000 to Oglethorpe College, was presented to Hr. Hill for his signature, did he not deoline to sign it npon the ground that he was not a citizen of this county? Did he not say he approved of the meas ure, and that the Connoil ought to com ply. with the request; and that were he a citizen of this plaoe, he would sign it cheerfully ? We ask for information. T* th* Constitution. We stated that the men.declared by the meeting last Saturday, to be chosen as delegates to the State Convention, were avowed Greeley men. Our neigh bor says this is not oorrect—as to three of them. Only one of those gentlemen has oome to us, alleging that our classifica tion was not correot; and he then said to us he would vote for Greeley it nominated at Baltimore. We then asked him if we should oorrect the error, and announce that he was not an avowed Greeley man, stating that we would most cheerfully make that statement in Tux Sou, and set him right before the community if he desired it to be done. He deolined to accede to this proposition. His only reply was: “you can do os yon please about it,” and walk ed away in a somewhat pettish humor. It won’t do for the Constitution to de clare that wo have done them injuBtico as long as they remain silent of harmony in Fulton county, than exists at present. But wa prefer not to discuss any of the charges brought by our neighbor against the aoeniacyof our report We most anxiously wish to avoid any stirring up of strife, or any controversy, or further discussion of this subject. We could, were we disposed, successfully and over whelmingly set asido every single ar raignment of our neighbor, but will not. We enter a protest and a plea of 11 not guilty” on every point, and drop tho sub ject-only remarking that we, in common with a large majority of the Democracy of Fulton oounty. complain of unfairness in that meeting: and we Btate, that when a meeting is fairly conducted, wa shall not try to disturb the result, let it be what it may. A New Deal In UriJUn. The Democrats of Spalding county are dissatisfied with the resolutions adopted at their late meeting, and have callod for another to be held in Griffin, on Saturday next. Verily, the nause ating dose of Greeleyism is having its eflect. The people—the true Democra cy—cannot stomaoh Greeley. Hany, at the first presentation of the subjeot, have expressed a preference for Greeley as a choice between him and Grant; but the more they reflect upon it, and ihe more they learn, the more they will repudiate Greeley. It is so in Georgia, and every where else. ■a-i!* vasiUMIIo* OS th* Coll Ihr A mo ther BI**tl*U' Our neighbor, of yesterday, plants it self squarely against having another meeting of the Democratic Party, and in favor of maintaining and abiding by what wa* done at the meeting last Saturday, with all ita causes of dissatisfaction. We shall probably uotioe that article further. For the present, we only re mark that the Democracy of the oounty generally are dissatisfied. We do not propose to trammel the people with a wrong, through any technicality. We hope and believe the next meeting will be quietly and peacefully conducted, and that the democrats of the county will have a full and fair opportunity to give expremion to their wishes. We favor the satisfying the publio mind of the Party. Is our neighbor opposed to this ? Does the Conelilulion favor a dis regard of the popular will ? The widespread dissatisfaction we have heretofore alluded to exists. A solution and a termination of this discontent oan be reaohod in another meeting, whose proceedings shall be fairly conducted, with perfeot order and liberality. Is our neighbor opposed? This kind of a solution will pnt an end to all complaint with every true Democrat. We favor it, and would be glad to have jour neighbor join iu this measure. -SIMMS Is (Uc Peacemaker.* Our neighbor, the Constitution, reviews our report of the proceedings of the meeting of Saturday lash He excuse* bis liberty by proclaiming his persistent efforts to secure harmony. We regret that his efforts in exhorting unity end harmony have ao signally failed. He has been calling for “unity,” “unity,” for a tong time; but as yet has never laid down any common principle upon which to unite. True, he has impressed hi* read- era with the conviction that he favots the nomination of Horaoe Greeley at Balti more—though he ha* not yet distinctly avowed that as his position. He, howev er, would not, in the minds of most of hi* readers, be any more clearly under stood to dwuw the nomination of Gree ley by the Baltimore Convention, in pre ference to a Democrat, and to be laboring anymore zealously and efficiently to se cure that object,if he had made such a dis tinct avowal of hi* preference tong ago, than h* is now understood sud believed to b* by most of his readers. If this is not his teal desire and object, he is unfortunate, that is all. We do not chargsAhat he is In favor of Oteeley, or that hXs aiming to do what ha oan to reconcile Democrats to Ida support, nor that snob is our opinion. We only my that such is the firm conviction of largo numbers of his rmflun. I'erkape if he had ao doolared himself, b* would have bean more sueossaful in ■mooring unity. Perhaps if he had, from the first, taken high ground for a firm adhareoea to Democratic principles—a sound Democrat, upon a sound plat. more Convention, provided it does uot endorse the Cincinnati nominee*. That is to aw. they will abide by it In caae it doe* exactly what they with, and un der no other circumatancoa. We take the foregoing from the Au gusta Constitutionalist of the 16th instant, which that journal ssys is "very nnbusi- nesa-like, and comes more from passion than sober thought.” And we remark that the way the edi tor of that journal states the proposition ia very unfair and not at all creditable to him aa a fair journalist. We say that we will abide the nomina tion at Baltimore—not upon condition that "it does exactly what wo wish, and under no other circumstances;” but on condition it adberos to Democratic prin ciples, and not otherwise. That convention has no authority whatev er, to transfer the support of the party to its enemies. It has no au thority whatever to change or set aside the ever-living prinoipIeB of the Party; and if it attempts such a thing, the mem bers of the Party cannot be bound to fol low tbeir bad example. If the Conven tion does an unauthorized or an undem ocratic act, it cannot bind the Party to support that aot; and the idea that a Democrat ia uuder any obligation to sus tain the action of a convention of the Party in a base surrender of its princi ples, is simply ridioulons. We do not ask Baltimore to do "ex actly what we wish.” Ho truo Democrat ever planted himself upon such a posi tion ; but wo do ask that Convention to be true to the time-honorod principles of the Party; and we say emphatically that our party fealty depends upon this—not upon tlK-ir doing exactly what wo wish Will tho Constitutionalist and other Grooloy apologists slnto fairly ? Remember too issue is not Grant or Greeley, but it, is Grant or a Democrat. Th. WMJT U will Work. probabi IrlonUkl ..111™, with power to tralul-le upon ovrry right of th. South, Mid to eetet nwnght ovory prlu- clple of Juttlae. ITo you dcilre thin I We take the foregoing from the Aa gusta Constitutionalist of the 16th inat The way to secure Grant's election is for the Baltimore Convention to nomi nate Greeley. If there are only two can didates in the field, and these two are Grant slid Greeley, Grant will, in all probability, be elected by perhaps the largest majority that any President ever received. Either Grant or a sound Democrat will be the next President. This is our solemn conviction. Greeley stands uo obnnee whatever, under any circum stances. Those who aro trying to induce Demo crats to support Greeley are playing into the hands of Grant. Those who are say ing anything calculated to reoouciio Dem ocrats to support Greeley, under any circumstances, aro thereby strengthening Grant’s chances, Greeley can't beat Grant, Ho power on earth can bring enough support to Greeley to make him Presi dent; and everything that weakens the Democracy strengthens Omni. Herein is every Democratic supporter or apologist tor Greeley—unconsciously it may be— contributing to the suooess of Grant. The issue is not Grant or Greeley, but Grant or a Democrat Clark* coMMly. Tho Athons Watchman, of the 19tb, baa the following items; That the dwelling-houso of Ur. A. W. Griffith, near the High Shoals, was cou- snmed by fire on the night of the 6th inst. Everything in the house, wo are sorry to learn, was burned up. The location of the Northeastern IUil road has been completed between this town and the crossing of the Air-line. Hot only has the distanoe been materi ally shortened, but the estimated ooat greatly reduoed. On Monday morning, while a negro is handling a shot-gun in a blacksmith shop, on the outskirts of town, it was ac cidentally discharged and ita oontents lodged in the head of a small negro, of which wound he almost instantly died. A personal altercation one day last week between Col. R. S. Taylor of this place, and Hr. Washington Strickland, of lffiwliaon oounty, led to blows and finally resulted iu Hr. S. getting pretty severely cut with a pen-knile. The wounds are uot considered dangerous. crop* la Campbell.

E. Hitchcock to the Chair, and John F. Kirk aot as Secretary. On motion, the Chair appointed the following Committee to prepare business for the meeting, viz: I. J. Meadors, Gabriel Nash, G. 0. Daniel, R. H. Bui lock aud K. M. Strickland. Tne Com- mittee retired for a .abort time, (return ed, and introduced the following resolu tions: 1. Resolved, That the Democratic party of Madison county stands to-day upon its post record, aud for the pnrpoee of preserving Party existence and Consti tutional Government, wo desire the nom ination of a straight-out Democrat, upon Democratic platform, for the next President. 2. Resolved, That wo are opposed to coalition with a Republican candidate for the Presidency, believing aa we do, their success would be no remedy for the wrongs which have been heaped upon us by said party. 8. That we have full faith iu the in tegrity, ability, and patriotism of His Excellency, Governor James M.

Resolved, That the sense of this meetiDg is that we claim that we are en titled to the Senator of the 30th Senato rial District of Georgia. Should this not meet the approbation of the oounties of Elbert and Oglethorpe, we would like to hear from them upon the subjeot; and we take this method of notifying them of the fact-. Moved and carried, that a oopy of the proceedings of this meeting be forwarded to Tux Atlanta Son, and the Southern Banner and Watchman, in Athens, tor publication. On motion of Ool. G.

Editors of Atlanta Weekly Sun: Permit me, an humble SoutUeru man, to return yon my heartfelt thanks for your bold, able and truthful support of true Democratic Principles, and Repub lican Government. It is with nnalloyed pleasure that I read the able editorial articles and often times, the excellent communications, snob as tbOBe from “A Democrat," from Purmcdus Reynolds, and from James W. Davidson, in your paper of June 12. thank you for your opposition to the Democratic Party nominating and sup- porting Greeley, and going over to the Republican camp. It is, and has always been, a mystery to mo, bow any Southern white mnu could even entertain tLo idea of voting for II. Greeley under any circumstuncc« whatever. It the Baltimore Democratic Convention shall nominate Horace Gree ley, or any other so-called Liberal Re publican, it will bo tho dentil knell of the Democratic Party; and, I think, will cause more Democrats to vote for Grant than Greeley, as I should certainly do if compelled to vote for either. But God forbid that I should ovor bo compelled to vote for either of them. Let us be true to our principles, to our country, and to ourselves, and if we are defeated it will be much better for us than if we hod deserted them and gone over to the enemy and succeeded. If we arc to sell our birt (rights for a mess of pottage, let us, at least, have the pottage firebar we shall never get it; and I trust the Democrats will never prove so recreant to theirpast history, to tbeir principles, to|their honor, as even to se riously entertain the idea in tbs Balti more Convention of going over to the enemy, and deserting every principle which they have heretofore sustained and proclaimed os true, and just, and honorable. Again thanking you for your manly support of right principles and Republican government, 1 am your obe dient servant, Pktib E. Hines. The Cincinnati Gordie, of the 10«b in stant, says: "Early lust week the first samplo of the new crop of wheat was re ceived from Georgia, and sold at auction, aud brought the extreme price of $13 50 per bushel. A burrel of flour made from this wheat, was donatod to the Bethel by M. W. Stone, the purchaser of the wheat, snd was sold on 'Change Saturday, by James II. Laws, for the benefit of the society, at $75. Charles Hofer was the purchaser, aud he re-danatod it to the Bethel. It was again pat up at auc tion, Mr. W. O. Morris, auctiouoer, and brought 9150—-Cunningham St Sons, the well known pork packers, being the buy- era. They have generously donated it to the Widow’s Home. It is to bo sold at auction by Morris A Reid, on ’Cbango to-day, at half-post twelve o’clook. Strike on the Port Iloyal Holli-oud. The Chronicle aud Sentinel,ol Tuesday, has the particular* of a strike on the Port Royal Railroad. Toe circumstances are as follows: About 200 colored laborers have been employed by tbo oompany on the line oi the road between this city and the Sa vannah River, receiving ae wages $1 25 per day. The overseer or superintendent of the line wse A. H. Herndon, of this city, who received $60 per month. Last Saturday night Mr. Herndon demanded that hia wages be increased to $100, with wbieh demand the company refused to ootnply. Herndon then gave up hie .lace snd another man was appointed in lia stead. Yesterday morning he visited the line of the roed snd all the hands ceased to work—demanding $1 50 per dty. The men formed in line and marched iuto town, about 200 strong. Their first belt was on Brood etreot, near the lower market, where they stopped to get liquor. The crowd was eo large that Uie street woe blocked for iomo distance, and the Chief of Police ordered the strikers to movo on. The column marched to Bay (treat, at the foot of McIntosh, where they went into quarters on the bank of the Savannah.

Washington, June 18.—The situation of affairs at Geneva, which excites much comment, isos follows: Up to Saturday last Great Britain bad moved side by side with the United States in the business before the Tribunal of Arbitration, when there was an interruption of the proceed ings, by the representatives of the form er Government, who deferred their argu ment in the case, their object being to obtain an extension of time, in order to secure a modification of the additional article to the Treaty of Washington. The question of postponing action be fore the Tribunal, had previously been diplomatically discussed between the two Governments, bnt to this onr own had not given its assent, os it was the con cern of Great Britain, not onre, to ask the Arbitrators for on extension, should she be unprepared, or indisposed, to ar gue the case before tho Tribunal at the present time., Oar Government has not proposed, snd does not propose to object -to such s proceeding, snd will do nothing to give that of Her Hsjesty a pretext for with drawing from the arbitration. It is considered within the power of the Tribunal to grant a postponement for a reasonable time, or till the Senate shall again meet to act on such modifica tion of the amended additional srtiele to the Treaty of Washington as may be proposed by Great Britain, who ia dis satisfied with its phraseology, believing that it requires verbal amendments the better to oorry out the object intended, and to free it from ambiguity. ' Our government, however, has no power to make such a modification, and, ft may be said, has no disposition to do so, in the absence of the advice and con- sent of tho Senate, that body having been oonsulted with regard to the article, as originally presented to it by the Pres- ideut. As no extra session of the Sen ate will be called, events must await the regular session of that body in regular course. The entire subject has been discussed by those who have direction of it, and one of the views taken of it is, that even if the oase should now proceed, and the arbitration in the language of the Trea ty, fail to award a sum, in gross, then the other alternative—a Jjoaid of Assessors— is to be appointed to determine the lia bilities as to each vessel, the organiza tion to be at Washington, with power to bold its sittings there, or in New York, or in Boston. So, in cose of the failure of the Arbi trators, there must necessarily be some months delay in the appointment of the Assessors, and therefore it is said cur Government bos little or nothing to gain by resisting tho postponement, which Great Britain desires at Geneva; besides there are other points of the Treaty, the execution of which has been postponed by onr own Government, namely; as to navigation, transit aud tho fisheries, nnd, under all tho circumstances, it is con sidered that the delay in determining all the questions at issue, can work no evil to this Government, but merely post pone tho payment of money which may be awarded. While our Government docs not favor delay at Geneva, being fully prepared fur the performance of its part, it will leave Great Britain to tube its own course; so it there should be a failure of the Treaty, it shall not be rightfully at tributed to any act ou the part of the Government of the United States. It should be said, however, that no ferns are, at present, entertained in that diroetiou, and there is no information to wurraut a conclusion that the efforts to adjust the-differences will bo ineffectual.

New Y’ork, June 18.—The Iferald't special from Geneva, of the 18th, says Another very long day has been passed by the Agents aud Counsel of two con tracting Powers. From an early hoar this morning they have boon engaged iu long consultations. Last night the Americans had atranged some pleasant excursions, with an early start this morning, but at a late hour hour both aides received important dis patches, which caused a postponement of the trip. Shortly before 10 o’clock, Sir Roundel! Palmer visited Mr. Evarts aud repeated tho visit at a late hour this af ternoon. Mr. Evarts had a long conver sation with the British agent, and the American Counsel havo been fully ocou pied, not only in seeing each other, bnt in receiviug aud forwurdiug long dis patches. It is evident that uiilesa the Counsel, on both aides, came to some agreement, acting upon the instructions of this gov ernments, the Court will again meet on Wednesday. Shea A Tally, informers in tbo recent Sunday liquor cases, were tried in Quar ter Sessions upon the charge of conspira cy to extort money, and were committed. Buffalo, N.
