COI'NTY CONVENTION AN'O IIUI'RU- MENTATION. A convention of the Democrats of Muscogee county is to lie held at the court house next Saturday at eleven o’clock. There, doubtless, will be a large number present, though our people arc not very enthusiastic on political questions just now. They are opposed to nominations for any olliee, and all with whom we have conversed, leaders and privates, are in favor of pulling bridles off and per mitting nil who choose to enter the field to do so, and let bud luck lake the hindmost. There arc many tilings that ought to be attended to. For instance, the Executive Committee should lie ar ranged more equally according to the ding strength, so Hint a district of fifty voters should not have equal power with one polling five* hundred. If nominations ever should lie made, thedistriet system is tliefairest of all, when they are properly ar ranged. A primary nomination is hut another election, without its legal requirements, when everyone votes without question. In regular elec tions ttie poll tax is n check on indis criminate ballots. According to the present district system the country lias twenty-five votes and the city only eighteen, while at elections the ity polls over one-luilf and nearly three-fourths of the ballots. Such representation Is utterly unjust and lisproportionate. The most equal plan we have heard suggested is, be fore nominations take place, for the xecutive committee to take the poll tux lists and base the representations >f districts on the ratio of one delegate to every lifty votes, and where a dis trict lias not that many that it lie en titled to one delegate. Our nomina ting conventions under the present rule number forty-three members. The proposed plan would give more, and they would be distributed according to polling strength. This is the plan adopted in the larger eitic and many States of the North. It places every district on an equality. I f it is strong or weak it lias its pro]>- er proportom in the conventions, and that much voice in the decisions. This year, however, ns a Democrat is certain to bo chosen, the people generally want a free race. The young men of the county desire to vote one time for those they prefer, ns hundreds who have reached ma jority since the revolution have had no opportunity to do so—simply bal- loling for the party—and all arc equal ly anxious to pull down the bars and let the horses go, each running on ills own hook. best citizens been defeated for Mayor. Botli times there were fifty men on Broad street who declined to vote- alleging “too busy” us an excuse; yet they complained. It is only a question of time when tlie taxes are to he paid, and we think the city is better able to wait for its two dollars until the voter offer his fioli than is the poor man, who labors daily, and but barely makes a living. The twenty days to him to be out of two dollars is a good deal, when al most every cent is required for ids support. It requires time for many of our best citizens to save that money and yet our Council, by its action, deprived them of the privilege of the ballot unless they pay taxes many days before an election. The action is unfair, unjust and oppressive. It is said tluil the Chinaman 1h in capable of civilization. Filets dis prove this ascortion. All Cluing liiul been working at San Gabriel, Califor nia, and received a cheek for $151. The figures wore raised by Cluing to $051, and the amount was paid on de mand at tile Mcrclmnls’ Bunk of Bos Angelos. No trace of the China man bus us yet been discovered. Senator Morton generally spoke in tlie Senate while silting in Ids chair, although liy tlie aid of an iron Blipport at tlie end of Ids desk lie sometimes stood for a few minutes. He suffered from what is spoken of ns a jMirulelie shock, which chiefly affected the lower part of the body, so that thereafter tie walked with diffi culty, even when aided by a couple of canes. Mr. Morton's death leaves the Senate, when his successor takes his seat, Republicans 38, Democrats 34, Independent (Davis), 1. The admis sion of the Louisiana Senators and one from South Carolina will make the Senate stand, Republicans ,'is, Democrats 87, Independent 1. Thera is also a probability Unit Patterson, of South Carolina, will la- lost to the i**' Republican party, on account ofstcul- * Itig. A Democrat wouldbenppoliited in his place. Mr. Hayes in forbidding the as sessment for political purposes of the employes of the Government is fully sustained by act of Congress passed in 1876. It provides that any employe of the United States who shall request or take from any oilier employe of the United States any money for any political purpose whatever shall be deemed guilty of a misdemeanor, and upon conviction shall be dismissed from his office and sentenced to not less than n year's imprisonment or fined $500, within tlie discretion of the court. Kellogg and Spotford met for the first time, a day or two ago, In the room of tlie Committee on Privileges and Elections, where they had been summoned ns contestants, and were introduced to each other. Kellogg opened the acquaintance liy telling Spotrord that, by a singular coinci dence, he had that morning received a letter from his wife, who expressed the hope that Mr. Spollbrd would get the seat. Of course Mr. Spollbrd re gretted the husband was not of tlie same mind ns the wise woman who had uttered the proper wish. The white folks did not entirely monopolize the President while he was at Richmond. Thirty-two col ored preachers waited upon him and assured him that they were satisfied with his administration. In reply the President said that his faith was firm, if anything firmer, than ever that bis policy of reconciliation and pacification would redound to the interests of all, both tlie white and colored people. He had taken his stand on that course, he said, without hesitation, and lie would hold it to the end. He believed it to be tlie best policy for all—for the Sortli as well as the North. Tlie old issues which had once divided lliu two great Beet ions of this country, lie said, were gone, and gone, he believed, forever. He at least does not seem to regard Ills policy as un experiment. THAT ORDINANCE. Council last night, by a vote of six to live, refused to reconsider the pas sage of the ordinance passed at the last meeting disfranchising every citizen who refused or declined to pay the commutation lax of two dollars before registering. The vole was on sustaining the Mayor’s ruling, that to repeal an ordinance another ordinance was required. The ruling is no doubt correct as to an ordinance, but parlia mentary usage and the practice of Council is to the contrary ns regards the question ut issue. An ordinance passed at one meeting is not an ordi nance until the minutes of (lie meet ing which passed it are confirmed. A ny member voting for the ordinance at its passage lias the privilege of ask ing a reconsideration, providing he gives notice of his intentions while the minutes are being rend by tlie Clerk. Alderman Scheussler did give such a notice, and the Mayor ruled Ids motion out of order. Coun cil sustained the Mayor, which was, in our opinion, at variance with the rules. Some years ago an ordinance could ho put to a final vote on its Ih’st reading, but a late rule of Council re quires all ordinances to lie over until the next regular meeting. Tills is a wise provision, as its prevents hasty legislation. But the rule allowing a reconsideration still remains, and anything done by Council at one meeting is capable of being reconsid ered at tlie next. The action id' Council is such that it will he impossible to repeal (lie or dinance before it is toolntoto register, ns the registration closes twenty day boljpro tlie election which takes pine on the 2d Saturday in December. \V would, therefore, advise every one who desires to vote to go the Clerk of Council and offer to register, and on the day of tlie election all they hav to do is to pay their taxes. This ordinance is an oppression upon n large portion of our people, it is a capital against labor fight, and w regret to see our town the first to start it. Just such legislation us this is the main cause of the rise of communism, agrarianism and other destructiv isms that have arrayed the poor against tlie rich. Wo have a thous and voters in our town. None hut those owning real estate can register without paying their taxes. How ninny small merchants, clerks, mechanic and laboring men are there who are so unfortunate as to lie too poor to own real estate'.’ At least 800 out of tlie thousand. Tims two hundred land owners legislate* for the 800 who earn their living liy tlie sweat of their brow, and who are tlie rent lux pay ers, for they rent the store houses and dwellings of the rich at a rate to pay interest and taxes. This is a country and we want to see the people rule. We hope that the day of elm legislation will never come. We are on tlie same platform on which Gen Robert Toombs stands: “Let the peo ple rule ; they may go wrong some times, but they will get right before they quit." Tlie monied class fear the so-called "nibble. 1 ’ Tlie “many are not as black us pointed. If tlie gentry will turn out and vote, they would have less cause to complain of those they deem inferior. But they stay indoors, and if had men are elected they growl and complain. Twha'since tlie war have two of our OEN. I.ONGMTHF.ET AND TtfK BAT TLE OF GF.TTVMIM'KG. Gen. Longstreet hns appeared in print. In the Philadelphia Times lie gives a description of tlie battle of Gettysburg and defends himself from tlie charges that his delay on tlie sec ond and third days caused the defeat of the Confederates. He claims that lie lias shouldered blame, and suffered in reputation because lie was unwilling during tlie life of Gen. Lee to publish anything which might lie distorted into an attack upon his commander. This we deem a lame excuse. By waiting for tlie death of Gen. Lee and all ills other corps leaders lie can as sert at will. They are in their graves and cannot correct errors which Gen. Longstreet may inflict upon them. If lie lmd anything to say lie ought to have published it during tlie lives of those who planned the campaign that they might too have an opportu nity of making a statement. Gen. Longstreet was blamed by the Soutti not because he accepted tlie re construction measures of the Republi can Congress, but that he joined tlie worst foes of ids section and tlie brave soldiers lie had so honorably led. Had IiIh course been followed, intelligence and property would have still been under the rule of capetbag- ism and ignorance. General Longstreet was an aide officer when lie had a superior to plan and give general directions. When lie had exclusive control lie wus a sail blunderer. Instayce his East Ten nessee expedition, and foolish charge on Knoxville, more murderous than Gettysburg. That campaign was a failure throughout. General Longstreet says lie speaks of the weak points of the Gettysburg campaign “with tlie greatestuffection for General Lee and the greatest rev erence for his memory. Tlie rela tions between us were affectionate confidential and even tender, from first to last. There was never a harsh word between us." He quotes that General Lee said after the battle, “It is all my fault.” General Lee thus took all tlie blame from ills lieuten ants. After his dentil they should have continued silent, and General Longstreet cannot regain tlie lost love of the South by his into review. Gen. Longstreet claims he thought it better to crush Rosecranz, move through Tennessee and Kentucky and threaten Ohio, and thus draw Grant from the seige of Vicksburg, and ad vised against tlie Pennsylvania inva- lon. He was, however, overruled, le recites the movement of tlie troops. Stewart, with tlie cavalry, was detached on a scouting expedi tion toward Maryland with discre tionary powers. He claims the cam paign was changed at Chanxbersburg by the arrival of a scout who had been sent into tlie nemy's lines: It was resolved at the loginning to adopt tlie plan of tacti- al defense—make tlie enemy fight us in positions we had chosen. General Longstreet presents evi dence to disprove that lie was ordered liy Gonenvl Lee to open .the attack on Gettysburg at sunrise on tlie 2d, and that it was long after sunrise be fore General Lee determined whethe the attack should he commenced by Longstreet or Ewell, and tlie order for attack was not issued until the morning was well advanced. Then nearly an hour was lost by the engi neers finding a covered way to pro 'll, which was very circuitous. Becoming Impatient ho hurried for ward, and found Me Laws in charge of the advance division, waiting under direct orders of General Lee until Colonel Johnson (Lee’s Chief Engi noor) could find a covered way. Longstreet went back, and ordered General Wood’s division up ns rapidly us possible without regard to conceal ment, and thus precipitated instead of retarding the battle. He state General Lee was either directly in his oinpnny or within a few moments march of him all that day. Gen. Longstreet also claims that lie toutly and earnestly protested against tlie battle of the 3d, and speaking of it afterwards, Gen. Lee asked him why "he did not stop all that busi that day?” He replied that lii advice was not taken and he would not disobey orders. He denies tlie statement of Col. Taylor that General Lee, in liis presence, gave Longstre orders to put Hood’s and McLaw’ divisions in tlie column of attack. In a letter written by Gen. Leo to Long street in 1864, lie says: "Hnil I taken your advice at Gettysburg instead of pursuing the course 1 did, how differ ent it nil might have been." We quote:— 1 proceed to say that the Gottysbur campaign was weak in these points— adhering, however, to my opinion that a combined movement against Rose- crans in Tennessee and a march toward Cincinnati would have given bettor r suits than could posatbtv have been s_ cured liy the invasion of Pennsylvania: First, the offensive strategical hut do tensive tactical plan of the campaign as thrown across tlie river we might have fallen on that force and crushed it, and then put ourselves in position, threat ening the enemy’s riirlit and rear, which would have dislodged him from his po sition at Fredericksburg and given us tlie opportunity for an effective blow. Third, General'.Stuart should not have been permitted to leave the general line of march, thus forcing uh to march blindfolded into tlie enemy's country; to tliis may lie attributed, in mv opin ion, tlie change of tlie policy of the cam paign. Fourth, tlio success obtained by the accidental rencontre on the 1st should have been vigorously prosecut ed and tlie enemy should have been given no time to fortify or concentrate. Fifth, on the night of tlie 1st the army should iinvo been car ried around to Meade’s _ right and roar and posted between him and his eapitof, and we could liavomanceuvered him into an attack. Sixth, when the attack was made on the enemy's left on the 2d by my corps, Ewell should have been' required to oo-operato by a vigorous movement against liis right and Hill should have moved ngainst his centre. Hail this been done liis army would have been dislodged be yond question. Seventh, on the morn ing of tlie 3d it was not yet toolntoto move to the right and manoeuvre tlio Federnls into attacking us. Eighth, Pickett’s division should not have boon ordored to assault Cemetery Bidgo on tlie 3d, ns wo had already tested tlio strength of that position sufficiently to admonish us that we could liotdisloilgo him. While tlie co-operation of Gener als Ewell and Hill, on the 2d, by vigor ous assault at tlie moment iny buttle was in progress, would in all probabili ty have dislodged tlie Federnls from their position, it does not seem that such success would have yielded the fruits anticipated at tlie inception of the campaign. The battle ns it was fought would, in any result, have so crippled us that the Foderals would have been able to mako good their re treat, and wo should soon have been obliged to rotiro to Virginia with noth ing but victory to cover our waning jausG. He claims there is no doubt that General Lee during tlie crisis of that ampnign lost the matchless equipoise that usually characterized him, and Hint whatever mistakes were made were not so much mattersof deliberate judgment us the impulses of a great mind disturbed by unparalleled con ditions. General Lee was thrown Aid, Our Congressmen Native Georgians.—Both of our Senators and every member of tlie lower house in Congress are natives of tlie State.

We consider the execution by hang ing of Owen Wright, colored,by tlie people who took tlie law in their own hands, just. He was an outlaw in every meaning of tlie word. He was like a wild beast venting lift passion wherever helplessness wus found and inclination prompted. According to liis confession he was a brute of the worst disoription. He violated tlie person of botli wliites and blacks whenever occasion offered, and victim wus unprotected. He was fully identified by tlie lady he had defiled, after having overpowered her with kicks and pistol shots. He made her strip before him, and gratified his hellish lust and left a poor weak lady, nearly crazed. One ball from liis pistol would have killed her had not the weak, struggling wo man struck it aside. He nearly killed child with kicks and throwing it about. According to liis own show ing, tliis was the fifth crime of this ihuracter he had committed. After leaving Mrs. Ellington, lie went on to swear innocent men to ruin, per imps to death, for blood money. In the Soutli, on tlie farms, ladies in tlie day time are often alone, tlie males having gone to the fields. Res idences are remote from each other Our colored population are as well behaved as any peasantry in tlie world, but sometimes a mon ster of litis kind comes along Then it is necessary to set an example to deter other fiends from violating innocence, and let them know a speedy death awaits the 'ommission of such acts. The pro tection of helpless wives and (laugh ters demand such summary punish ment. No jury would convict tlie person who had slain tlie one who lmd violated the person of liis wife near relative or friend. Communitie are aggregated individuals. Tlie limit deserved death. He showed no me ■y, why should any have been givi him? Jails are insecure. Escapes have been made front the strongest. Society demanded this scoundrel should not be umvhipt of justice and be allowed to suffer tlie law's slow delay, to be possibly sent to the pen itentiary, and be hired on a farm, and allowed again to gratify liis lust on feeble women. He was not executed by n ntob, but by determined, cool men, who at tempted no concealment, who execu ted the wretch after lie had been fully identified. They were tile friends of the victim. Black and white eon- mrred in tlio sentence. Put your- iclves in their place, ye who would •ensure. Rape is worse than murder. In i*very case, proved beyond a shadow if it doubt, as in this, the perpetrator, be be white or black, should know that instant death awaits him.
