An Oatloek hj tit* Raw fork Borate.
Hie New York 1 Jerald of tha 10th lust.
ronUiuH a long editorial headed “Tbo
doubtful Elements in tha Presidential
I.ouUhI and their Unknown Qualities.”
It in guarded in the prediction of yoaitiva
TonaltH, nml como* no Hearer to tha ex-
preantou of au opinion Aa to the net pro
duct of the “doubtful eletoepU," than to
anggeHt that hut for tha “straightont Dem-
ocralfe movement. they would defeat
< s rant. In other words, it aradita his re.
•Inctton—Mhoold ho bo ro.elected—to the
•‘atraighUont" folly, Wa copy Its re
mark* summing np:
“To aiim up these doubtful political el-
rment« and tlufir unknown qnantitio*, the
Jnlujr rnfurinerN, the temperance reform,
era and the free traders par axeellonee
may hejrliainisasd as of no oonasqneneo
form thoir diaaenaiouM they will ho non-
trail zed. There will ha a gain to tho ad-
imuiatmtion* -a ofoar gaintoaUthe North,
«-rn HiutOH—from tho blsoka, tho 15th
iiiueudoioni having become a law sfneo
; thord will he tho loss to General
Grant of tho Cincinnati bolting Itetinbli-
I'aiim, and n low, Uu doubt, of a oorunderu
ble body of German* in the Waal ; and
tjir*o ItMMoa wnujd, perhaps, be conclusive
up,must biiu but for that unknown Quanti
ty of tba old line or Bourbon anti-Grro-
ley clement of tba Democratic party. Ao-
rording to tho teat of the North Carolina
• lection, thin refraotory element doaa not
sonnibly shake the integrity of the Demo-
rratio party : but the Maine eleotlon will
Ira a aliurpcr teat, in being fought moro
ilirsetiy upon the Preaidential question,
and it will go far to indicate the general
•lrifi of pnbllo eentinient in tbs North on
sn issue between Grant and Grealey, be
fore which nil theac outside disturbing
forces will ho absorbed or swept away.”
The llnald moana by tba laat remark
flint should tho Maioo eloctlon "indicate
tha general drift," in a paeitivo and uu
auistakuhlo manner, the party in tho drift
will quickly absorb most of the “doubtful
nleinente,” end its auceesn in Novouitmr
tuny be confidently predicted.
Of the pmsfioct of the Loninville
(Kentucky) Convention movement,it sayn:
“ Wa entertain the opinion that thin Louis.
\illo 4 ’onv<nlian will alno’ prove a failure—
that it cornea too lato an a third party
movement, and that even should it put a
ticket into the field with ao respectable a
nemo as Charles O'Conor at lta bead, ita
success will be so utterly hopeless and Un
mission no naif-evident, that in the and
jla boat friend* will see the folly of throw
Jng away their votes on it, and will devido
between Grant and Greeley, ncoording to
their several inclinations."

We regard the signal “straight-out*
failure at AUanta, this week, as ao extin
guisher of the Louisville Convention pro.
jAet. It was, probably, the moat IndicrOM
pretense for a State Convention aver wit-
neased In our political contests. A very
few delegates from about a dozen conn,
tics, representing from five to tSeoty
*ynq»athu«r* at home, pressed into their
earvlae perhaps nearly As many more self,
appointed poliik'UiT.s visiting Atlanta, and
way tw two <n three members of the
Legfislitlira, and proceeded to oooatrnot a
“Htato Convention' out of the scant me-
terial thus collected! And this Ho-caJlcd
Htate Convention anointed delegates to
represent a pf>l ideal jtartj/ in Georgia at
Lonisville 1 The very effort to make a
show of strength proved Ilia moat conclu
sive evidence of utter weakness. The
people of Georgia now X rune—what they
Mined before—that the “straight" or
Bourbon agitator*, though land In their
datuor% have not immbam enough to
turn the scale id a single closely contest
ed county in the Btate. Their roll call at
Atlanta was too ahott to make them ap
preciable in tho great aggregations that
are to contend in the Preaidential fight.
If the “straight*' could make no hot-
r demonstration in Georgia where
they have lion. A. It. Stephen* to lead
them—whore alone in the Hnuth they
have been able to attract popular atten
tion at all—where they started the bolt
with several influential papers to hack
them, aud whore they have ntiil one Daily
of character aud ability to back them—
how osu they pretend to rupre*cnt at
Iiouiaville soy popnlur aeutiuieut or to
ataud therewith toy popular barking?
How can they peraint in tbrir madHcheme
to orgauiee a third Preaidential jierty?
Thoir inability to divert the people any-
whoro from tho political nane* of the
•ampfiign, or to draw thorn from tho lino
(dong which tho great political hauls
ha* to b* fought, i* now ntanifcMt. They
may as well “fall Into line'' at once, now
that tboy porcoivs thoir inability to form
• now one.

looking to a furtherance of business rela

pleasant and profitable—“so mote it be,"
at least. Aud young ladies and gentlemen
of (.\»Jimibu.s and Tullapoosa, 1 am happy
to bo privileged now to give you an in
troduction to each other. Doubtless your
conversation, too, will be of a busmen*
character, but somewhat of a different
nature, and who will be presumptive
enough here to-day to offer to predict
what naty he the isst'E? Young gentle
men of Columbus, if you should cull any
of our lovely XeUapoo*A flowers, yon will
find them as sweet and beautiful as ever

The Florida Conservative Conven

most certain.
The Montana Triumph.—The Demo
cratic majority in the Territory of Mon.
tana approximate* fiOO. Laat veer the
Radical* carried the Territory and elected
Ctagtetto Congress by 413 majority.—
This shows a Democratic and Liberal
gain of nearly 1,000 iu a total vote of 10,-
000, giving a gain of a Democratic dele
gata in tha ©lection of Maginnis, and oe-
euriug an unmistakable endorsement of
Greeley and Brown.
Riot in Gwinnett.—We learn that nt
a barbecue given at Moses Dillard’s, jn
Gwinnett county, on the lath inst., two
'or three men, tthder the influence of liquor
rained a row among themselves, which
widened until some fifteen or tweuty were
finally engaged. YVe understand that
three men were mortally wounded during
the progress- of the fight! Entities had
nothing to-do with it, but it grew out of
an old personal grudge between some of

you can—our word for it, they will make
you happy, for we have several friends
who married Georgia girls, and they
L el and believe they have the best wive*
in the world. Bnt be sure to bring them
over to Dadeville to live, for we wi*h to
become a city like Columbus, and all we
lack of it i* more houses and more people.
Now, I have iutroduoed you all, and my
work ia nearly finiabed: but, allow ma to
add, here upon thia beautiful plat of
ground, beneath the shade of tfcis lovely
grove, Alabama to one and all for the
day, and here may we Feat, indeed, in
peace and pleasure, and may it but be
the blent precursor of many a happy re
union in ftature—a union of sentiment, a
union of purpose, a union of aim, and a.
union of interest; and who knoVr* and
who iriU care if it abooid prove a union
of hearts, too ! Why, such union© should
always be enoouraged, for tbay bring
about large communities, a community of
interest, find they serve to bind tbe hu
man family into cluaer and more indiaso-
lublo tiea of friendship, love and interest.
And now, in conclusion, when oar union
for tbe day must come to a doe©, and yon,
my friend*, must return to your homes
on the Chattahoochee, may yon return
safely without an accident or unplcaa&Qt
thought to mar your trip, bearing with
you many a joyous recollection and happy
reminiscence of your visit to old -Taiia-
potme, *»d with such strong obordf.of ao-
cud feoliug aud iutereat brought about
on this occasion aa to induce yon to visit

again we weioowe you to our classic bor
ders, aud to one and all we .wish and will
bespeak a joyous aud happy thue.

mote tho gaueral comfort and happiness
of all on hoard. Although, there was
much cotvplnint uhont water, its aeatrity
could not well bo helped, when wo consid

the oppressively hot w eather.
The crop? along tho Western and H. A
M. II. B . with the exception of a field in
which we noticed rust, look vory well in

broken and exhausted condition of tho
lands.
For ourself, wo return special thanks to

which will bi 'found in another column.
They are agents for Bradley's Hnperphos-

stantly on-hand a good supply of bagging
and iron ties. Consignments are solicit
ed and tho usual facilities extended to
customers.
A SuufiT Mistake.—The Eufrohr
Tinas claims a very heavy advantage over
Columbus and Macon in New York
freights, whiob if not corrected is calcu
lated to mislead the iWHophiaticated puli-
lie. We have before "ns a pritod schedule
of general and special rate*, adopted
August 1st, which shows that freights
from New York to Eufaula and Columbus
are identically the same in all elastics.
Old Shrop must certainly ^ ave been
dreaming when he got off that paragraph,
or else is very dull in figures. In tho
same article he put* down freight on cot
ton from Eufaula to Kew York ttfll.78
per 100 11m. If this iu correct Ulu town is
