The nomination of thi* gentleman m
tho Democratic candidate for the U. S.
Senate, (to succeed Dr Miller) haa already
been reported. Constituted aa the Legia-
lata re in, thin nomination is equivalent to
an election, and are have no uoabt Mr.
Norwood will be elected lo-daj. Hia
nomination was rather a surprise to us, as
it probably was to most people in this por- veraity.
lion of tbo State. We teke it ss an indi
cation that a large majority of the Demo
crats of the Legislature incline to the se
lection of new men for high political offi
ces—especially ignoring the claims of old
politicians disqualified by the 14th Amend
ment.
We learn from a brief personal sketch
of Mr. Norwood, published by the Atlanta
Sun, that he is 41 years of age; that he
studied law under Hon. James M. Smith
at Onllodcn; and that he never held office
before the war, but waa a Representative
in tbe Georgia Legislature in lbtil-2. The
St n says of bim : “His father waa pos-
pessol of an ample fortune, but believed
it to be proper for everybody to learn
some trade. Accordingly, ha had the anb-
ject of this notice, who was his youngest
child, to learn the trade of a shoe and
boot maker, which ho did ; and he made
tlio boots with his own hands, which he
wore when he went to college.'’
Mr. Norwood is now a leading member
of the Bavaunah bar, and is a flueut a*:d
forcible *peuker.
The Atlanta correspondent of the An-
gunta Chronicle & Sentinel telegraphs that
after the nomination, Mr. Norwood ac-
-nowlodgini* the complim* nt at the Kiui-
•oll House, “pronounced speech making,
letter writing, and newspaper articles, as
the bane of the Houtb, and aaaerted his
intention to svoid speech uisking."

ferred othew : but we opine that the cau
cus lias made a good selection.

Dr. Angier showed Mr. Redfield a little
pamphlet of laws, abont eighty pages of
large type, and wanted to know what be
guested Bullock paid for ten thousand
eopiea. Mr. Redfield put the figure high
and said three thousand dollars. “No,”
said the Doctor, “be paid eleven thou
sand dollars, and I am told by aspariea-
oed printers that a man can make money
10 do the job for eighteen hundred or two
thonsanu dollars. That la a specimen of
the manner in which he throws around
tM people's money.”

The I« Medial* Gew of Balled'* flight.
Bullock's “reasons" for his flight from
Georgia have not anywhere been acoept-
ed os the true impelling causes. Even
those who hod no knowledge of his con-
dm i as Governor insisted that if ha was
innocent be would have braved impeach
ment and met hia fate like an innooent
man, but that flight waa a presumption of
gnilt. We are glad to aee that the truth
about the matter is likely to be well an
derstood all over the country, even be
fore the Legislature can formally elicit
tbe facts by investigation. The follow
ing ia an extraot of a letter to the Cincin
nati Commercial (Republican paper) by
Mr. Redfield, its correspondent, who vie-
Hed Atlanta on an investigating expedi
tion. It explains clearly the troubles in
which Bullock had involved himself, as
well as the State, by uu unlawful issue of
bonds—if not by their unlawful applica
tion. It also shows some light on his
mysterious movements previous to resign
ing, as well ss the peculiarity of writing
bis letter of resignation, and leaving ita
promulgation conditional, a wash before
it waa divulged:
“I will tell yon why Bollock ran away.
He bad issued to II. I. Kimball and others
all the bonds g.Jng to the Brunswick and
Albany road, over five million! of dollars,
while still the road lacked seventy-five
miles of being completed. The work ia
now stopped, and the State has of course
been swindled. Kimball ran short of
fnnds, sad got the Governor to over-issue
the amount of bonds due him, so that he
oould hypothecate them. He deposited
them iu New York and obtained an ad
vance of sixty cents on the dollar. When
the time esmo to redeem he coaid not do
it, and as the Legislature was abont to
meet, they wonld be aura to nnaarth the
whole thing, expose the fraud and im
peach - Bullock for violating tbe law.
When Kimball failed, Bulloek made >ran-
tio efforts to get np the money himself, so
as to get back tbe bonds and show that
Kimball had not been over paid, bnt he
failed. Some of the 1 ernes* of the State
proposed to help him, bat all wonld not
consent to it when they found the amount
waa so large. This last, however, is mere
rumor. At all events, Bulloek failed to
raise the wind sufficient to set himself
aqoare on (he record, and went to New
York to see what he could do there. He
Ltd hi# resignation and “address to the
people" all prepared before be left here,
but to be kopt secret until he found out
what ho could do in New York. He
fried to make any arrangement# there,
and with certaiu impeachment atari ng
bim in the faoe if he came back, ha let fly
'ia address and resignation, and remains
aray. Tbe conspiracy against bim was
none other than a determination to im-
peaoh him if ho hod misappropriated the
public funds, if this oould not have
K*n proved against bim, and a clear case
jade out, be would not have been im
peached. The Democracy of this State
are nor. anxious to make a mertjr of Bnl-
jock, and the majority of the Legislature
ore not the men to oommit perjury to re
move an innooent man, especially so when
bo has only some twelve months to serve.
Not two weeks ago, Bullock told me that
id present Legislature was one of tbe
-uJt that had ever been elected in Geor-
4 ,*a; that they were oapable and honest,
although Democratic, and much better
representatives of the people than the
ast ene. The notion abont a oouspiracy
against him, and 'another at tempt at sepa
ration,' must have entered hia bead after
he found out to a certainty that ha eonld
not replace what he had wrongfully taken
from the Treasury. Tbe feat that ran
Bullock off waa a consciousness of guilt.”
But this ia not all. Dr. Angler, tbe
State Treasurer, informed Mr. Redfield
that Bullock “him used three million dol
lars of State bonds paper in some way,
nobody knows how.” He is represented
to have been perfectly reck lean in finan
cial matters, and haa need an immense
amount of money for political purposes.
Dr. Angier aays:
“Hia bills at Washington were very
heavy when he was lobbving there, as one
item amounted to near five thousand dol
ls* which ha explained that he used to
buy up Forney's Cbroniel#. In addition
to baying up papers abroad, he bad abont
all in this State in tow. To one little pa
per in Covington, with neither reeders
nor influence, he paid over three thou
sand dollars in two months. The country
papers used to bring in snob enormous
bills—frequently fire times larger than
the whole print shop waa worth- that I
stopped peying them, it was such a down
right, unmitigated swindle. WelL Bul

A ROM IS AVION FOB UOVKUNOK.
The hill List u&n parsed the Legiulsturo
of Georgia, providing for a special elec
tion for Governor, names the second
Tuesday in December as the day for the
election. The second Tuesday will be
the 12th of the month, and this iathe 14th
of November. Only four weeks will ta-
torveue between the passage of the act
and the day of election, even *u;>poHing
that acting Governor signs tho bill to-day.
But it is hardly probable that he will do
thin—it in more probable that this week
will pana off before the bill becomes a
law, and that wonld reduce the interval to
abont three weeks. It seems to ns, there
fore (with due deference to the recom
mendation of the State Democratic Ex
ecutive Committee), that time enough
v/ill not be allowed to hold a Convention
of delegates selected by the people to
nominate a candidate for Governor. Such
a convention could not be a full one, and
in the present lull of political excitement
among tbe people, it is not likely that the
county meetings for the election of dele
gates would be largely attended. We ho-
lieve that the Democratic members of the
Legislature would better and more fully
represent the party than any Convention
of delegates that could be assembled with
in so short a time. One serious objection
to Legislative caucus nominations of can
didates to be voted for by tho people,
hardly applies in this case. We allude to
the fact that goneraily parties are so divi
ded in the Legislature that a large nnm-
l»er of counties would not be represented
in a canons held by cither party. In this
csso there are very few comities not hav
ing Democratic representatives in the
Legislature—so few that it would be an
easier matter to obtain the attendance of
some representative men from each or
most of them, and with their co-operation
make a Legislative nomination, tbau to
got up a State Convention with ten days
or two weeks (for tho brief interval of
three or four weeks wonld have to bo di
vided into two periods, one before and
one after the nomination.)
Another consideration: Tbs people of
Georgia are not at present divided or so
licitous about the nomination of any par
ticular man. Neither personal nor see-
tional predilections are nov- distracting
them an* tendering it necessary to asoer.
tain which aspirant con carry the majority
of hie party with him. The Democrats
of the Blata will coruially support any
good and honest men whom their repre-
sentstives in the Legislature may indicate
as the man for the oocasion. We are con-
vinced that the Democratic members of
the Legislature will not name a man of a
different character.
It seems to ns, in view of the above-
named considerations, that the Democrat
ic members of tbe Legislature should hold
a caucus, not lster than *be 26th inst.,
and nominate a candidate for Go senior—
previously inviting tbe Democrats of the
few counties having Radical representa
tives in the Legislature to send delega
tions of privets citizens representing their
preferences, and permitting them to east
the votes to which their respective coun
ties may be entitled.
Chaw.khton, Nov. 18,—'The Charleston
News print* a report of the action of a
caucus of the ciAored ruembers of the
Htate Legislature, held lost week. The
caucus resolved to make no appropriation
this oomiug sessiou for tbe payment of
the interest on the State debt, and de
clared themselves iu «avor of repudiation
of both the old and new debt of the State.
This ia the result of negro Radical rale
in Honth Carolina, brought about within
two years after they obtained political
control of tho State. The end will ooaoe
suddenly, but it was inevitable, and daisy
will only make the mr.tter worse. The
negroes have a clear majority in the
Legislature of South Carolina, and can do
what they please there. Bat even if they
had not, it ia not likely that the plundered
and over-taxed whites would resist the re
pudiation cf bags debts contracted cor
ruptly for tho purpose of enriching Radi
cal officials and favorites at the expense
of the people. And to this complexion it
must come in other Hontbern States now
or lately under Radical rale.
Notwithstanding tbe very recent tele
graphic aasnranoe that the President waa
not contemplating the overthrow of civil
authority in any part of Georgia, or of
the Honth, a Washington dispatch of
Monday night says that the Preaidant
“has under consideration tbe neoesrityof
placing oertain counties in Northwestern
Georgia under restrictions, like those im
posed upon oertain counties in Booth
Carolina.”
We do not know whieh report is the
oorrect one. Wo ouly know that the use
of tbe word “necessity," in tbe above
connection, ia wholly unwarranted and a
Ubel upon the State of Georgia.
We direct attention to tbe interesting
article on the subject of ifte«nfmmi«»fmg g
the South, whioh we copy on the first
psge of this paper.

Dear Sir : I have iuat had a conversa
tion with M. Edmond Farrencc, editor of
the official jonrnal of the French Gov
ernment, in whioh he assured me that if
proper at cits were taken a large tide of
French emigration eonld be turned to the
State of Geoigia—The olaaa of emigrants
are of the very kind that we most need—
cultivators of tbe soil—men who know
how to work and who are not afraid of
work, and who expeot to work.
Knowing tho importance to our State of
securing such emigration, and knowing
the interest yon take in the subject, I take
the liberty of suggesting that it would he
well for you to correspond with Monsieur
Farrence who will readily givo you any in
formation you may require.
Of oonrso you have been astonished, os
all the rest of the world has been, at the
immense amount of surplus capital iu
Franco which reoent events have brought
to light. I am informed by French citi
zens of high intelligence that proper invi
tation and inducement# might secure tho
uko of soino of this capital for business
enterprises of any kind in the State of
Georgia.
As 1 do not propose to negotiate in bus
iness transactions myself, and aa 1 desiro
no appointment eithor from tbo State or
from any of its citizens, yon will percoive
that tho hints that 1 have* dropped are en
tirely disinterested.
You are at liberty to niako such use of
this letter as you think best.

We are informed, (and HtippoHC it iH
true), that Cupt. Blodgett uud his friends
and confederates are making 11 doHpcrate
effort to break down iuveHtigution into his
State Road management, by industriously
making suggestions to the prejudice of
Maj. lliirgrovo aud Maj. MoCalla.
These two gentlemen arc entitled to the
edit of beginning the work of exposure.
They luive already procured tbo restora
tion of n considerable amount of money
uud property, und know more about bow*
to proceed to recover the immense sums
which cun yet be saved, and convict those
who are guilty, than any others.
Au effort iH being made to prejudice the
Democratic mend er* of the Legislature
against them, on the ground that Medulla
iH u RnpuMicnn in {Hilitics, and won an
employee of the rond w bile the plundering
was going 011; uml uguiuHt Hargrove, be-
eiuiHo he hiiH given Home objectionable
testimony before the Ku-klux Committee*.
Medulla was UiHpoHHesued of the luniks of
the rood by Blodgett to stop any further
discoveries and exposures by him; and the
great object is to keep him from ever httv-
lug any further control of those books, or
giving any assistance in the investigations.
A tremendous effort- has been made, but
nothing Iiuh yet been produced to impeach
his integrity; and the same is true of Maj.
Hargrove. They have both givou their
time, and expended their own money; and
now, Lapt. Blodgett hopes to induce the
legislature to ignore them, leave them
without the means of continuing the pros
ecution# commenced, ami thereby pre
venting inventifftitioii, till he can secure a

Can (he South dovelop a large cotton
manufacture? This question nos of ton
been discussed of late. It is now agita
ting tbe popular mind there to an extent
which ia full of promise, although D'o
masses of our people at the North Cu.i
scarcely understand it. Tbe obvious an
swer is that the industries of any country
are the outgrowth of tbe genius of the
people. Climatic influences may be fa
vorable. an abundant supply of the raw
material may offer itself, cheap labor may
bo abundant; bnt all inch condition* are
in vain, if, aa in Brazil, India or Egypt
tbo genius and institutions of the people
blight and paralyze the development of
manufacturing enterprise. We have of
ten applied these principles to the Boatb,
since the closo of the war brought the
gradual elevution of labor to its just place
among the productive forces of the coun
try, and we have never been able to reach
but one conclusion. Ileuoe, we have no
hesitation iu endorsing now, aa heretofore
the opinions of those who declare that the
Honth can if she will, prosper and grow
rich by this and other manufacturing in
dustries.
Ono of tho facts on which rests this
hopeful view of the question is that wher
ever cotton mills havo been established
iu tho Boulhern Btnte* they are paying
lmndsomo dividends. Thns the Peters
burg (Vo.) cotton mills have reoentlypub-
lihhed a Htate incut showing their financial
operations for 11 months of the yoar end
ing Inst AngnRt.. The net profit is shown
to bo equal to 25 per oont. ou tho capital
stock. Tho coinpniiy pay a reut of equal
to 2j per cent, on their capital Htock, and
tho managers with a pardonable solf-com-
plucency, make a comparison of its pros
perity with that of similar corporations,
and intimate that no other cottou manu
facturing company in tho United States
can rnnko a showing of profits equal to
that which they have realized. We might
cite other examples from tbe list present
ed in confirmation of their arguments by
the promoters of manufacturing industry
in the cotton-growing States. In Geor
gia, for idHtnuce, the cotton mills at An-
gusta and at Columbus Are enjoying sin
gular prosperity. But tho important point
of the controversy is whether this prom
ise of prosperity rests on a trustworthy
basis of permanent order and public qui
etude. If so the destiny of the South to
devolop its material wealth with u rapid
ity heretofore unkuown may be regarded
as certain. It is noteworthy thsi. some of
the profoundest thinkers and the best
men in the cottou States are agitating
these questions and that the disparage
ment and despondency and aversion in
which such discussions were formerly ap
proached Heeni to be giving way to a more
rational attitude of the publio mind. This
movement, iudioating, as it does, a grow
ing submission and cnlightenmont aa to
F olitioo oconomical truths, is rich in hope-
ul promise.
The Southern States, aa Mr. Bright ob
served in the Britah Parliament on a
memorable oocasion, have sneb resources
that “tho whole earth offers nothing more
fertile or more lovely.” Bnt these riche*
noed to be developed. They are not poa-
HosHcd until they are roalized. And their
development is no donht intended in the
inscrntablo designs of the Great Arbiter
of nations to call forth both from the
North and the South such co-operative
social and moral forces that not a few
difficulties will thus solve themselves,
whioh are now prononncod hopeless by
some who ought to know better.
The great masses of the American peo
ple have always refused to take a discour
aging view of the industrial future of the
South. Its inhabitants, though different
iu somo of their qualities from the more
composite population of the North, are
not incapable to recognize or obey their
own interesta, nor devoid of ambition to
enrich themselves by conferring indus
trial wealth and prosperity on our com
mon country. They are now rid of the
paralyzing incubus of slavery. They are
for the first time in their history inriting
emigration. They will gradually be rain-
forced by those industrial elements of
population and prodnotive power, whieh
are now their chief wants. This influx
will attraot capital, whioh ia the other
great want of the South. There is no
more intelligence required to spin ootton
than to plant, aeloet, dear and sell it.—
The spinning and weaving brings swifter
roturnp, and demands laaa capital in pro
portion to the prodnot than does the in
vestment in land and labor for trising the
ciop. It was formerly supposed that the
manufacture of ootton goods was incom
patible with the agricultural production
of the raw material. But thia opinion haa
been long ago refuted by the logte of
facts. Every ootton mill established in
the Booth and managed with vigor haa
wou suocess. W# repeat, thou, that the
Houtb may, if she will, develop a prosper
ous cotton mannfacturo. Bhu has great
facilities for tho pnrpoHo, mid success in
the use she malien them depends wholly
on her own a ill. Thia miicci**, however,
can be secured only by complianoe with
several oomlitioiiH which we shall hereaf
ter diaciibH iu greater detail. A brief
reference to one or two of the ohief most
now suffice.
First, tho development of manufactur
ing industry will eventnally cause and re%
quire a largo influx of workers from the
North, which must be enooarsged. Still
thore is no need to wait for immigration.
They have a vast amount of unemployed
labor ready for employment in the Honth.
Tbe field hands who cultivate the ootton
may not be fit for the delicate leak of
tying knots, manipulating warpa and
woofs, or watohiug looms and apiudlea.—
This work requires one set ol special apti
tudes, and a* jther set ia wanted for the
rougher and more robust labor of the
plantation. But tho unemployed ma—ea
of the Bouth include both cfaaaaa. Four-
tenths of the people on an average, we
these facta, every friend of Southern in
dustry ana national progress most bw
gratified to find that the reoent politioal
troubles in Booth Carolina have boon ex
aggerated, and that they have for month*
been under suppression from the law-
abiding people of that Bute. Mr. Aker-
man, the Attorney General, who naa jnat
returned from a three weeks' trip through
Bouth Carolina, reports that the outrages
complained of during the peat fifteen
months had mainly ooonrred some time
age, the culminating point having been
reeobed last March. Ha also states that
the outrages have been few for several
months past, and that the trouble was
aahetautially *1 aa end. Certainly this
evideooe from a member of the Cabinet
justifies the asm and that the proelaaution
of martial law in the nine counties said to
be disturbed shall be revoked without de
lay. If the foots are aa represented by
the Attorney General, then the proclama
tion was an invasion of the national lib
erties, and will prove to be one of the
greatest mistakss whieh haa avar bean
charged against the present Administra
tion, or any of ita predecessors.
On the other hand, let onr Southern
cltixens remember how much of their
growth in wealth depends on their re
pressing disorder* by tho superior foroe
of law-abiding patriotism. The condi
tions for establishing manufacture* in
the Sonth and promoting ita prosperity
are all dependant on intestine peso#, and
order and tranqniiitv. If, without just
grounds, the Administration haa issued a
proclamation declaring a state of war,
and suspending the writ of habeas oorpus
in a time of profound peace, when the
people were jnat gathering in their corn
and ootton, and when the snuahine of ma
terial prosperity waa jnat beginning to
dawn, there ia aa appropriate remedy
whioh moat not be impeded by any popu
lar disoon tent, or tumult, or violence.—
If all this waa done, as ia claimed, with
out a state of facta whieh justify it, the
matter will be referred to Congress for
redress; and meanwhile let the people
there prove their zeal for the public tran
quility in this eritieal emergency, and
they will thus both ref nto their maligners
and attraot thoao supplies of floating cap
ital and organised labor whioh are need
ful to lay a firmer foundation for their
own present and future program, both in
prodnotive power, industrial enterprise,
and realized material wealth.
