ami if it shall turn oat that it can be done,
no man will rejoice more earnestly than my
self. Hut I will proceed to give my reasons
why 1 think wo bad better co-operate with
Cincinnati.
Mr. Greeley has said and done many things
which 1 need not tell yon I do not approve—
you do nut approve, but Mr. Greeley has al
ways hern in favor of one policy which re-
lierea me of the moat vital objection to hia
Mipisirt. He never baa at any lime approved
of those odious features of the reconstruc
tion |«dicy which disfranchised the virtue
and intelligence of the Boutii and enfrau-
cliiacd Uw ignorance and vice of the South.
| Applause. | He lias stood up lixe a man
from the la-ginning and protested
against every one of these odious
features of the reconstruction policy.
You know that the main reason why I never
issiId, I never can and never will, while God
gives me grace to remember that I am a
Southern man and a white man, approve
these measures, la because I liey effect my
honor, because they ask the Southern people
to give that policy validity by their own con
sent, asks them to consent to s policy which
degraded the whitemcn of the South by con
senting that the masters should lie in chains,
while tbeir slaves should be unfettered to
rob them. | Applause.] That is why I never
c< add and never can endorse that policy. Aa
1 said la-fore, in 1867 and in 18G8, when all of
yirn concurred with me, I do not and did not
propose to resist the United States, nor any
thing they :raiglil do. I said that all that
then ami tried to prove it, but I said that
when Congress passed outside of the Consti
tution to oppress the Southern people, when
the members of that Ik sly trampled upon
their own oaths to gratify their feelings of
vengeance against the Southerntpeople and
asked the Southern people to give vitality
to that action by tbeir consent. I add to
General Grant and I sahl to General
I’ope. and I thank God that I said it, that I
would take anything, death, confiscation,
exile, martyrdom, but consent to that infamy
never! [Applause.] Now, Mr. Greeley
comes to our relief upon that point. Though
acting with the Republican party, be, from
the in-ginning, protested against these fea
tures of that policy. Therefore, I don’t, nor
■In you, violate that principle of honor that
we should ever bold dear, by supporting Mr.
Greeley. That I pat foremost as the first
reason why i am willing to vote for him.
There is another reason why I like Mr. Gree
ley. He bos never been what is called a par
tisan. and an independent thinker, I think has
the greatest honesty. I pity any man when
I see a man get up before an audience and
talk al* ait building up a party. You most
use party to accomplish a good purpose.
Tint must set harmoniously with your party,
lait when it comes to thought, be independ
ent. lndr|M-ndcnce of thought and harmony
in'aetiiHi is the huahtessof all who associate
in |«irty movements. Now, to Uie history of
Mr. Greeley :
IVhy, 1 remember before the war bn defied
libs party In the very hour of its fanaticism, and
Milly declared that if the Southern people
dritired In secede, they had the right to do so.
But, said the gentleman, after the war be
gan lie prosecuted the war. That is true,
t an you objeetto that? Mr.Greeley honest
ly thought that the Southern States had a
r ghl to sereile. But when the North waged
war anyhow, ami the South waged war also,
why Mr. Greeley joined hia own side. Well,
I iqquwrd secession, and a great many other
gentlemen opposed secession, bat when our
States seceded we went with the States
through the wsr. [Applause.]
Now, if you quarrel with Mr. Greeley for
going with hia State, you must proscribe
me for the same reason. I would
go with it again under the
cirrumatancrsi [Applause.] I have nothing
to take hack nor to apologue for, upon that
subject. The only difference between at is,
that In- h»i>pened to be on that side and I on
tii'is. That hi alL But Mr. Greeley was
it the whole ps
peace.
was not willing to negotiate upon the subject
of peace, on .terms honorable to both parties.
Suae represent Mr. Greeley as a vnidiclive
■nan; but it is not true.
I call to my mind that at ono time, when
the Confederate Government sent Commis
sioners around to Canada, to open negotia
tions with Western Democrats Our Com
missioners were there, and, so fix u I
know, or believe, or remember, Horace
Greeley was the only man in the
North, Democrat or Republican, that had
the courage to go to Canada and have
friendly and honorable communication with
unr people. [Applause.] Even the Demo
crats—even the Democrats of the North re
fused to entertain propositions from ns, or to
treat wiih us. Horace Greeley was the only
man that defied his party and acted upon his
conscience as a patriot and went there ready
hi enter into terms of pence consistent with
the honor of both sections on the basis of
the Union. [Applause.]
: war terminated, and our flag was
foiled and our noble chief, than whom no
people ever had nobler, was a prisoner, in
chains, and the blood bounds of the North
were after hia blood, he exhibited the highest
mural courage. As I walked through the
streets of New York, myself a prisoner, the
first time I eTer taw that city, I saw stream
ing from all tbeir public buddings, humilia
ting pictures of Jefferson Davit, in
clothes and in chains I heard their maniac
cries for hia blood. The first sound that
saluted my cars, when I entered the
was the miserable tailor, taring
ought to feel honored because you occupy
a dungeon in which I had pre
pared to chain Jeff Davie.” I replied to him:
"I do feel honored, and if you had chained
him, a criminal would have gchained gs
patriot" [Applause.] Boon after Ur. Lin
coln’s unfortunate assassination, when pas
sions were inflamed, aa I never saw them
among any people, it was then that this
Horace Greeley defied hfa party alone
went to Rich mood and dared to become the
;prity of this man, and did do it [Great
a aumirc it ~wny,” says
“im desertes no more credit than Gen. Grant,'
who threatened, if Gen. Lee was molested,
be would reaign his commission.” Why, my
friends, don't you see the vast difference
between the two? Grant did that as a
soldier. That waa the condition on which
lx* surrendered— that be was not to be dis
turber!. Grant waa nnder a solemn pledge
to protect Gen. Lee. He would have been
false to hit honor aa a soldier If he had not
done it. Bat Mr. Greeley had given no
pledge to Jeff Davis. His act waa a volun
tary act. Hit act waa not done for the
purpose of redeeming a pledge but to illus
trate a principle. [Applause.]
I am not saying these things to pronounce
a eulogy on Mr. Greeley; but! like independ
ence and moral courage. In some matters I
like a man that is yielding, that defers to the
opinions of others, but when It comes to acts
of manhood, then it to that I like to sec a
man act aa becomes a man. That Horace
Greeley has done in hia whole history.
There is no political principle in this, I ad
mit; but I am just giving the reason why
the Southern man to not inconsistent to vote
for Horace Greeley.
I am willing to eo operate with this Cincin
nati movement for another reason, which to,
for the good that I believe it will accomplish,
as evidenced tor the good it has already ac
complished. Now, fellow citizens, I want
to call your attention to the fact that this
very move baa already accomplished
three important things. In the first plice. it
baa accomplished a large amnesty. .The Re
publican party bad refused to pass the bill
removing the disabilities from the Southern
people at all. It hail come up over and over
again. They had managed to vote it down.
Greeley bail always advocated it When
this Cincinnati Convention met and passed
resolutions demanding il, and Grant's party
•aw that the issue would lie joined upon tliat
subject, they promptly (mused the bill, and
thus disabilities were removed from all but a
few of our Southern people.
My dtotingniabed friend said last night
that be was an outlaw, and that it was an
outrage. And so it to. Horace Greeley saya
it is an outrage. Horace Greeley has always
sahl so. [Applaose.] The nomination has
stricken 1 be letters from iny limbs. Thceicc-
tion of Horace Greeley will strike the fetters
from yours, (pointing to General Toombs.)
^ imnher^gnod thing that this move has
accomplished to this. The most dan
gerous bill, in my opinion, ever attempted,
for the purpose of centralizing the American
Government, to known as what is called tin
“Force bill"—the “Bayonet Mil," by which
the Federal Government, tbrongh its own
officers, takes charge of the election precincts
of the country throughout the nation. I saw
the infamy of this measure. I made a visit
to New York expressly to beg the people, the
authorities of New York, when the experi
ment was first attempted upon that State, to
resist it, and it was the passage of that meas
ure. aa one of the outrages, that preceded
and gave rise to this new departure. When
tliat measure was pasted, it then only applied
to a few large towns. General Grant tried
the experiment of enforcing that meas
ure upon New York. My own opinion was,
and the opinion of the leading Demo
crats was, that if New York submitted to
that interference with State elections that
Urn Republican party would enlarge its
powers, and by 1872 would have a bill passed
which would authorize General Grant to take
control of all the precincts and declare the
election as he pleased. Bare enough, in 1870
and 1871 an amendatory bill was introduced
and passed enlarging the powers of the Presi
dent upon that subject, and daring the tost
session of Congress a bill was introduced to
give the President authority to take
msscssion of every -election precinct
n Uie United States. How was that move
defeated? It was not altogether defeated, a
hard struggle ensued. It was modified and
tho most of its odious features were stricken
out, and now, the President, instead of the
right to arrest and*impriaon voters, without
the privilege of habeas corpus, till the elec
tion to over, has no right, but simply to allow
men to go and look on and make report.
How was that accomplished? By acoalilion—
by a combination of the Democracy and
the Liberal Republicans. That victory was
won and that iniquity waa defeated, [ap-
plaute] and that I consider one of the greatest
victories won. Fellow citizens, I congratu
late yon. His chief machinery, the
^ at engine which was to lie put
the hands of General Grant during the
pending election. Ire which he would be en
abled to control it, has been defeated ire the
management, by the combination, by the co
alition if yon please, of the Greeley men and
Uie Democrats. Oh, in the face of such a
latent, such a glorious truth, how I could
ook with utter contempt upon tnc poor crea
ture that, hyena like, could go back into the
far records of this patriot and dig up some
little thing to object tc. I feel that this
move has accomplished much for yon and me.
Now I don’t believe the Democratic
party coaid have done that, because Grant
waa willing to resist to the last that party
alone, but General Grant and his party could
not resist tho Greeley and Cincinnati Con
vention united in this work.
The third tiling to which 1 alluded as ac
complished by this move to this. Yon re
member lhat.at.the last session of Congress
a bill waa passed authorizing the suspension
of habeas corpus, and the bill was to tc in
force till the adjournment of the present ses
sion. Prior to the adjournment, that party,
the Republican party, brought forward a
move for tho purpose of continuing that act
in force, and it was a most dangerous blow
at the liberties of the people.
Even tho bayonet bill would be shorn of
some of its power by the defeat of tbe sua-
icnsiun of habeas corptu; but when the Prcs-
dent bad the right to arrest a voter, right at
the polls, and imprison him until after the
election, you see wbat the consequences
would be. Well, my friends, when the It*
publicans brought forward the bill toprolong
this power, again the Democrats and Greeley
men united and defeated it, and thus
to this move it is owing that you »>dl to
day—to-night—need no longer dread masbal
law. Marshal Uw has been threatened upon
this State several times, tail has been actually
enforced in North Carolinaand in Sooth Caro
lina. Their citizens have been in chains in
time of peace with this writ suspended, and
marched off to Northern prisons for impris
onment. Thank God this can no longer be.
Grant has no more power to take away the
liberties of the people by tho suspension of
the writ of habeas corpus than yon and I
have, and that glorious result to attributable
to the combination of the Democrats and tint
Greeley Republicans. [Applause.] Now, these
are the three things—amnesty, the modifica
tion of the Iwyocct hill and tho restoration
of the writ of habeas corpus. Those three
things alone are worth the Cincinnati move
ment, and are enough to inspire tho great
and noble with gratitude for the aecomplisb-
mentof it. [Applause.] Therefore, as tins
much good lias already been done, I argue
from that that much other good may. he done,
and will be done.
There is another reason why I am willing
to support the Cincinnati movement if the
Baltimore Convention shall so order it, and
that to this: that Mr. Gtechy had no expec
tation of being elected without the Demo
cratic voters, and if Greeley should be elect
ed, that same elcclioo will carry into the
House of Representatives a majority of Dem
ocrats, and when you have got in that laxly
a majority of Democrat*, tlie President is
powerless to do harm. [Tuotnba—Thai's a
strong point]
My friend justly says it » a strong point
It to one; and that alone to worth the expert-
Again, the indications from Democratic ac
tion already had, show very clearly that the
great body of the parly is decidedly in favor
of Cooperating with the Cincinnati move
ment It matters but little now what you
and I might have preferred. We cannot, if
we would, arrest this current. Of thirteen
States, which have, up to this time, held
conventions and appointed delegates to
Baltimore, only one has instructed her
delegates to insist on what to called
a straight Democratic ticket. That one
exception fa Delaware, which has
three vote* in the Electoral College. Yon
cannot forget your friends who so greatly
outnumber yon. You but help tho enemy by
quarreling with your friends. There can be
neither safety, nor jpolicy, nor principle, ex
in going with Baltimore.
_ je distinguished gentleman who addressed
you last night, (General Toombs,) said he
was glad this test of party fidelity,
had come. He was now going to win
now tho Greeley chaff from the tine
Democratic wheat, and he was going
to <*»tk the true Democrats on the
back and kick the others out! Well, I will
not quarrel with this true and valiant gentle
man, but I will suggest a bargain for his own
case sal benefit. If he will postpone the
ch.lkiniK division of bis lsbora for sixty days,
I think' he will find in Georgia only three
backs to chalk, and theywill be so sick as to
be utterly indifferent [Repeated rounds of
laughter and applause.] If he will only for
bear to begin the kicking process for
over a much less period, he will
find the undertaking so huge be
will reconsider his rash resolve and abandon
the job. If he will not so abandon it, he will
illustrate the wisdom and courage of a cer
tain wise animal, who, seeing the engine and
train coming towards him nnder fall speed,
bravely planted himself oo the track, threw
his tail in the air. pawed the ground with hit
two feet, and loudly hellowed out, “If that
traitorous and cowardly Greeley engine run
against him he would butt it-off the track."
[Great laughter.]
The last I saw of that animal he
badly clalked. [Renewed laughter.] In the
same breath our friend said “he would, with
great pleasure, vote for the Devil or John
Brown’s ghost before he would vote for either
Greeley or Grant” How barmonioasly
men’s ideas with their feelings unconscious!;
flow! On hfa line of passion and hate _
think.the Devil for Resident and John
Rrown’s ghost for Vice President would
he the very best ticket he could
nominate! [Vociferous applaose.] On that
line our poor deluded South has been carried
lower and lower and still lower, until Inow
know of no lower place save the dominions of
our friend’s favorite candidate. [Sensation
and applaose.] If the gentleman’s candidate
should lie elected, I pray that be may not
find place in that administration.
Kick out, indeed! Kick out New York,
Pennsylvania. Indiana—all the States but
Delaware! Kick out Hendricks, and Pendle
ton, and Seymour, and Hoffman, and Adams,
and all the great life long leaden of the Dem
ocratic party, except three latter-born in
Georgia I
Judge Stephens, last night, begged you in
most excited, pathetic strains to repudiate
Mr. Greeley for the sake of down trodden
South Carolina, while South Carolina herself,
with the unanimous voice of her convention,
implores you in tones louder than the clank
of her chain, to elect Mr. Greeley as the
only hope for her relief [Enthusiastic ap
plause:] Mr. Yorhccs has been alluded
to as advising for a straight Democratic
ticket. But Mr. Vortices’ State (In-
(diana) has spoken, through her Conven
tion, in the most emphatic manner, for Cin
cinnati Endorsement, and Mr. Voorhces him
self will abide the decision at Baltimore, and
be to, and ever has been, an honest man, s
tree man, and a patriot. [Applause.] The
troth is, the decision for Baltimore has been
rendered by the Democratic people before
Baltimore meets, and whether you like it or
not, it is your duty to concur.
So then even if the Dem ocratic party as a
unit could elect a straight Democratic ticket
with the divisions now manifest, success on
that line would he impossible. And here I
wish I could impress upon the South one
troth our people ought to learn. It is this:
There are thousands of the best Democrats
in the North who believe and affirm that one
chief reason why the Democratic party is
kept in a minority in the nation and in
the Northern States is because of certain
ultrstoma at the South whi. h they hare been
and are required to bear in season and out of
season. They applaud yon for refusing to
give vitality to the reconstruction policy by
your consent. This was necessary to save
your honor. Bat without your consent, and
by force, reconstruction has become an ac
complished fact. Every department of the
government recognizes and enforces the
amendments. All the people submit to them.
Now, for us of the South to insist that the
Democratic party shall go before the people
on a platform and with candidates pledged
to treat the amendments a- nullities, is
•simply to insist that the Democratic party
shall subject itself to the charge of defying
the government, of disobeying the courts,
and of seeking to get power only to undo all
the results ol the war, even to the extent of
reestablishing slavery. If every law result
ing front force and successful usurpation to
but a nullity, then everything done since
secession to a nullity; and to require the
Democratic party to approve or refute this
logic to a burden they cannot hear before the
Northern people in their present temper,
and must constantly insure their defeat and
make the wrongs and usurpations of which
we complain perpetual. They, therefore,
do not ask us to approve, hut only
to bnry reconstruction with tho sur
render, and secession with the dead
past, and obey the laws as Uie courts
and authorities decide them, as the only
way to stop tho ever increasing evils of
a revolution which secession madly began and
which reconstruction, with greater madness,
seems determined shall never end. And I
tell you, my Southern friends, abuse whet
yon call the new departure as you may, you
will get no otherpiatfonn at Baltimore. The
Democracy, whether with or without Cincin
nati, will notgo into the canvass with South
ern ultraisms—such as you heard here last
night—as their recognized and representa
tive sentiments. Whether Greeley and
Brown, or straight out nominees he the can
didates, they will stand on wbat you call the
New Departure platform. They will pledge
yon to abide and to obey, in good faith, all
the amendments and all the laws as verities
until the people, in a legal way, shall choose
to change lliem. Our Northern friends com
plain, and justly complain of those nltra
Southern men who allow themselves to utter
contrary sentiments as the only jtrue Dem
ocracy. To get rid of these ultraisms and the
charges to which they subject the Democratic
party before the Northern people, is one of
the chief reasons which creates the ncccsity,
as they think, of adopting the Cincinnati
Platform and nominees.
Still another reason for co-operating with
Cincinnati results from the one jnst stated.
If the Democratic party were to enter the
race on the platform of 18G3, and nnder their
own nominees, and were to get an actual
majority of the votes, it is believed they
would still not secure the offices. As against
Democracy on the platform that the amend
ments are nullities, it to believed the ruling
tarty would and could hold the Government
ty force and would be sustained by the
Northern people; while as against the plat
form and candidates of the Liberal Republi
cans, so securing a majority of the votes,
they would not dare to make such an at
tempt.
And behold here another illustration of
the dangers of extreme views and intolerant
tempera. How long, Southern people, must
you suffer bitter experiences before yon learn
the neat lesson that indiscreet zealots, con
trolled by passion, may do more to destroy
the cause they advocate than all the power
of the most malignant enemy could do?
What have you not already lost and suffered
from this very evil? I do not desire to stir
any unpleasant feeling, bat we mast not re
fuse to learn wisdom from our errors. I
speak what history must record ns true when
I say that the re-opening of the slavery agi
tation, by the repeal of the Missouri Com
promise did more to destroy slavery than all
tlie abolition societies of the world. Yet
that repeal was made in the avowed interest
of the rights of slavery, and every Southern
man who did not approve it, and support the
party that sustained it, was denounced as un
sound on slavery, and not fit to be trusted
by the people I
History will adjudge that when we harried
unprepared and in passion into secession, we
made the movement which destroyed the
partisan power of the South in the govern
ment. Arid yet that movement was admira
bly made to secure Southern independence
and promote Southern power, and every man
who coaid not approve it was denounced as
a traitor to hfa section. History will declare,
when all the facts are known, tliat the inter
nal dissensions created by the quarrel kept
up with their own side by distingnislicd men
in the Confederacy, did more to bring on
Southern defeat aud humiliation than all the
armies of Grant and Sherman. Yet that
war was made by Confederates on the Con
federate Government avowedly in the name
of liberty, and every man who milled in
giving earnest and unmurmuring support to
our leaders in the field and in the Cabinet
were denounced as the enemies of liberty,
seeking to establish a military despotism.
In Utc name of slavery, slavery was de
stroyed. In the name of independence, South
ern independence was destroyed. In the name
of liberty and right. Southern dofeat and hu
miliation was wrought. And this same fell
spirit of extreme unreasoning, unyielding, in
tolerant, self-sufficient and seif-immaculate
egotism and zeal, for twelve months has been
binding into its exclusive deadly embrace the
Democratic party, and in the name of the
“only true Democracy” will destroy Dcmoc'
racy itself forever, if not now rebuked and re
pudiated by the people. [Applause.] It will
then have but one more work of destruction
to perform, and that will be sure—that now
being done. Dinning forever, in place and
out of place, into the ears of the people, their
own self-patented exclusive right to define
and protect State rights. Indiscreet zealots
socin determined never to cease their ill-timed
clamoring until, in the name of State rights,
they shall destroy the States themselves 1
[Applaose:]
These tireless outragers of everything they
advocate, are always known by the fluent
facility with which they denounce eretybody
as a traitor, or robber or fool who will not
be os indiscreet and destructive as them-
selves. What a catologuc we had last night
of thieves, and robbers and Radicals, made
up of all classes, and trades and professions
of mea who-were willing to support Mr*
Greeley.
I tell these gentlemen there arc thousands
in Georgia just as honest, as true and wise as
themselves and who intend to vote for Mr.
Greeley if Baltimore shall ao decide: Nay,
I tell them more, if to be willing to obey the
laws of the land; if tc be anxious to
co-operate with all who are willing to
restore local State government and
Constitutional limitation upon Federal
power, and above all, if to be willing
to adopt any honorable means of arresting
the wrongs nnder which we suffer, and to
seenre equal rights to the Southern States and
people in the Union, constitutes a man a
traitor, a fcol and a robber, then the greatest
traitor, the biggest fool and the worst robber
in America stands before yon to-night 1
[Very great applaose ]
Now, in the beginning of this canvass I
enter my remonstrance against this intoler
ant oratory, and if the gentlemen who indulge
in it have no respect for themselves, they
should at least reaped the character of our
people and the gravity of the issue, and aban
don the ugly if not criminal habit.
Another reason why I am willing to sap-
port Mr. Greeley, if the Baltimore Conven
tion shall eo decide, to because, we, of the
South, by such support, offer to the North
the highest possible evidence of our sincere
desire to end sectional discord and have a
cordial re-union. It has, heretofore, been
difficult fat the Northern people to believe
we were sincere in laying down our arms,
and that we agreed cheerfully to the emanci
pation of the negro. It has been impassible
for the Democratic party to inspire this
needed confidence, because that party was
charged with bringing about secession, and
with a desire to nullify all the results of the
war, and the extreme and thoughtless utter-
, slices of afew Southern men hare aided the
Radicals in their impeachment of Democratic
sincerity on these questions. I have already
explained to you the origin and meaning and
purpose of what is called the new departure.
That movement bad the warm approval of
all the most prominent Northern Democrats,
and was indorsed by all the Northern State
Conventions. It bad no purpose but to pre
pare the Democracy to make this Presiden
tial race nnder their own flag, borne by their
own standard-bearer, and a large number of
Liberal Republicans were willing to co-ope
rate with the Democracy on this line, if the
party could organize on it. There was no
concession of a single principle. There was
only the admission of the facts which, right
or wrong, had occurred. There waa no
trouble with the Democrats at the North.
But, unfortunately, an unexpected bitterness
against this movement was exhibited at the
Sooth, and it to painful to add, chiefly in
Georgia.
All these utterances were eagerly caught
up by the extreme Radicals of the North and
paraded as evidence that the Democratic
party was not sincere in the proposed move-
men Ito combine with the Liberals to beat the
Extremes and save the country. The charges
were false; the movement was sincere and
patrio ic as you now see, bat there are many
at the North aa unreasoning as many at the
Booth—mere creatures of the war-passions.
The result wss the* Democratic party was de
feated and thus rendered unable, by these
Southern ntterences, to organize the party on
this movement and make the race under
their own flag aided by the Republicans.
The extreme demagogues of the North
ill not be able to make the people
believe that Mr. Greeley will nullify all the
results of the war and restore slavery. The
people of the South exhibit a magnanimity
which must excite Uie admiration of
the world, and offer conclusive evidence
of their willingness to give up slavery, to
give the negro bis political and civil rights
under the law, and to have permanent peace
and concord on a basis of universal equality
between the States of the Union, and of
civil supremacy and local freedom by sup
porting the Cincinnati candidates. If the
Northern people do not respond to this mag
nanimous and patriotic feeling of the Sooth,
then let them blame only theusclvefi if dis
cord reign until empire come.
The last reason I specify to night for being
willing to support Mr. Greeley, if the Balti
more Convention shall so decide, is, that as
his election is more probable than that of a
Democratic ticket, so the prospect for our
deliverance from Federal interference in our
local affairs through that election on the Cin
cinnati platform is more hopeful and will be
more speedy. And, after ail, my Southern
countrymen, this to- the greatest reason
of alL We hare but little interest in what
becomes of the Federal Government, if we
cannot get and keep control of our own
State gvernmenta. For seven years we have

and weakness, by strangers, vagabonds and
negroes, under the protection of the Fed

ranged, oar industry paralyzed, and society
demoralized, and our intellectual and virtu
ous men forbidden under the penalties of
abouConlcr, security and prosperity. For five
years thousands of our best people have
slept without case and waked without hope.
Our lands bare continued to decrease in
value, the fruits of our toil have been
taken by law making and law-ruling
robbers. Thousands have been arrested
without warrant, tried without law
and condemned without guilt, only to con
tinue in power the strangers and thieves who
ruled without authority and plundered with
out compunction. Even now while I speak
they are canying citizens of a neighboring

A gentleman having a distinguished name
said, hut yesterday, he was glad to hear I was
willing to accept the Cincinnati movement,
as it was good evidence the people would not
accept it, as they hod never followed me. It
is difficult to determine whether the truth or
the stupidity of this remark preponder
ates. It is true I have not led our
people to their present condition. But
when you see whither they have been
led, is it not strangely afupid for
any man to refer to such leadership as an
achievement for boasting ? No, my friends,
I have never led you. During the whole
time of my connection with politics you have
been rushing wildly down a declivity, and 1
have done nothing butlabor to avert yonr fall.
No man can have an humbler estimate of my
abilities than myself. When I have
so often seen so clearly evil after
evil coming upon you, and remem
ber how unable I have been to avert
it, I feel humble and insignificant. But your
fall to complete. Let it be at an end. We
most win again. And if God would com
mission me with an intellect worthy to be a
leader, I would ask no other or higher am
bition than to lead you from poverty back

What the Weak Need.—Why do the
debilitated and feeble dread the summer? It
is because heat is an exhausting element, and
they are not in a condition to bear the new
dram upon their languid systems, which they
think must necessarily commence with the
warm weather. But cannot this evil be ob
viated? Most indubitably it can. What
these weaklings need—in fact, what ninc-
tenths of us need at this season—is an acces
sion of physical vigor, and this desideratum
can be secured, with absolute certainty, by a
course of tho mightiest, yet mildest, of all
vegetable tonics, liostetters Stomach Bitters.
Thousands of men of business, mechanics
and professional men, break down, partially
or wholly, under their summer labors, simply
because they have neglected to reinforce the
powers of nature in this way. To persons
who use the celebrated invigorant and cor
rective regularly in hot weather, the exhaus
tion which excessive heat is apt to produce
under other circumstances is unknown.
They arc not troubled with nausea, their ap
petites are good, their digestion excellent and
their habit of body all that can bo desired.
This for twenty years has been the uniform
testimony of all who have taken the Bitters
as a summer tonic aud alterative. Its efllca
cy is due to the core and scrupulous fidelity
to the teachings of experimental science,
with which its medicinal ingredients have
been culled from the vegetable kingdom, the
admirable proportions in which they arc com
bined and the unequalled purity of its stimu
lative basis. juncl7dcodlw&wlL
A Sure Cure for the Dysentery.
Editor» Constitution: Believing tliat there
arc many cases of this fearful disease, espe
cially among children, in this community
; ilease give place to this remedy. It is as
: oliows:
A spoonful or two of pure, raw wheat
flour, thinned with water so it can lie easily
drank. Three or four doses, taken at inter
vals of ten -or twelve hours, will cure any
case not absolutely chronic; and from what
I have witnessed, I feel sure it is one of the
best remedies in the world for chronic
diseases. To make the dose palatable for
children, it can be sweetened and flavored
with some drops not acid.
Some forty years ago the dysentery pre
vailed throughout the Northern States to an
alarming extent killing thousands; and in the
midst of it some one published this remedy,
which was every where adopted and worked
like a charm curing thousands, and I now,
an old man, have known hundreds of eases
cured by it since. It seems to have the ef
fect to cheek the disease and at the same time
restore the inner coating to the .bowels, which
the doctors tell us is lost by the disease.

Atlanta, Ca, Jane 15,
of the i »t»inn«n of the Democratic Executive Com
mjitff Uie Democrat* of Fulton county met in
convention at the City Hal at IS*, today.
On motion of A P. Well*, CoL T. W. J. HD
called to the chair. Hr. Hill in taking the chair made
the following eddresa:
Mr Fn&ow-Dzxocman: For this renewed mani
festation of jour confidence, permit me 1
you my meet gratefnl acknowledgments.
We are today upon the eve of the mpet important
political emits that ha* ever tnnephed in the history
of the Democratic perty. Occupying my present po
sition it is not my province to intrude upon yon my
individual views or to dictate the coune to be panned
by this intelligent meeting.
I will, however, ssj that the success of the Demo
cratic party in the fntnre as In the past depends upon
unity of action. Whatever miy be oar difference of
opinion upon policy, there ought to be no division
Fur myself I shall adhere to the policy and princi
ples of the perty soon to assemble at Baltimore.
Whoever that Convention nominates and firmly
places upon a Democratic platform shall have my
support When I hear the Democratic dram beat I
shall commence to mark time, when the command is
given to forward, march, I shall obey, and when the
order is given to charge I will not be in the rear.
I have with mortification heard it rumored that
there is a desire to disrupt the Democratic party,
trust that no one is here today actuated by such mo
tive. I can never entertain such thought. Whenever
you Wot from the page of history the events of the
first revolution that brought.us from under the yoke
of Britifh tyranny, whenever I cun forget tho farcwi ll
address of the Father of his country, when the name
of Jcffcnon and his teachings are forgotten, and tho
name of Old Hickory no longer has a lodgement in
my memory, then, and not until then, can I even con
sent to the dismemberment of the Democratic party.
For eighteen years I have seen that patriotic politi
cal old flag ran np when a contest was coming,
have fought under Its folds; sometimes I have been
defeated, and sometimes I have been victorious,
want to see it once more raised and spread to the
brewe, and assist in Winching Its staff; and may it be
tom and Uttered into ribbons in a glorious defeat
rather than voluntarily submit to its lowering for an
inglorious and ignominious success.
Again thanking yon for the honor conferred on me,
I announce that the object of the meeting today Is to
select six delegates to represent us in the approaching
State Convention, and the first business in order is
tho selection of a Secretary.
On motion of Mr.'.R. B. Cowart, Messrs. Burgers
Smith and John B. Baird, were requested to act as
Secretaries.
Hr. 8. R. Hoyle moved that the Ch-ilrman appoint
a committee of thirteen to prepare and report business
for the meeting.
The following gentlemen were appointed on that
committee: S R Hoyle, B J Roach, Jno Milledgc,
A B Culberson, R E Cowart, S P Wells, Geo IIillycr.
Goo W Collier, L J Glenn, Daniel Pittman, Dr W C
Moore, T T Smith, Dr Jas F Alexander.
Daring the absence of Ihe committee tho meeting
was addressed by Colonel R. J. Cowart, CapL Harry
Jackson and Judge D. F. Hammond.
The Committee, through the Chairman, Hr. Hoyle,
reiKjrlcd the following resolutions: * '
Resolved, That the Democracy of Fulton county
now and in future, as it has ever done in the past,
recognizes the importance of anity of action to in
sure success.
Be it further resolved. That in our opinion the del
egates to the State Convention should go untram
meled by instructions, and should act, with all the
lignts before them, as they deem beat for tho good of
the party and the country.
Be it further resolved. That we have full faith aud
confidence in the wisdom and integrity of the Na
tional Democratic Convention soon to be assembled
at Baltimore, and we hereby pledge ourselves to abide
by ita action.
Be it farther resolved. That this Convention now
proceed to the election, by ballot, of delegates to the
Democratic State Convention and that the six receiv
ing the highest number of votes be declared elected,
with power to appoint their own alternates.

The following minority report was offered:
Resolved, That the Democracy of Fulton county
adhere to tho principles enunciated In the platform
adopted by onriState Convention held In this city in
August, 1870, and favor a nomination of Democratic
candidates at Baltimore.
Resolved, That we will acquiesce In and support
any action that may bo taken by the Baltimore Con
vention in maintalnanco of tho fundamental princi
ples of the Democratic party.

' Daniel Pittman,

T. T. Smith,
James F. Alexander.
Colonel I. W. Avery moved to amend the majority
report by incorporating therein the Democratic plat
form of 1870, referred to in the minority report, and
making it the first resolution recommended in that re
port, which platform was read, and is as follows:
That the Democratic party of Georgia stand upon
the principles of the Democratic party of tho Union,
prejudging with special prominence as applicable to
the present extraordinary condition of the country,
the unchangeable doctrine that this is a Union of
States, and that the indestructibility of the States, of
their rights, and of their equality with each other Is
an indispensable part of onr political system.
That in the approaching election the Democratic
party invites everybody to co-operate with them in a
zealous determination to change the present usurping
and corrupt administration, by placing in power men
who are true to the principles of constitutional gov
ernment and to a faithful and economical administra
tion of public affairs. The amendment waa accepted
by the gentlemen of the Committee 'offering the ma
jority report.
Colonel L W. Avery moved, also, to amend the ma
jority report by substituting for the word “action”
in the third resolution as originally reported, the word
“nomination,” and that the.Ireport as amended be
adopted.
This amendment was accepted and the motion was
unanimously carried.
In accordance with the report of the committee the
Convention then proceeded to ballot for delegates to
the approaching State Convention.
On motion, Messrs. W. T. Newman, BL J. Roach
and C. W. Wells requested to act as tellers for
the election.
Upon coanting out the votes the following gentio-
ten were foun t to have received the highest num
ber of votes and were declared duly elected: B. H.
Hill, R. J. Cowart, B. C. Howell, R. C. Mitchell, John
Thomas. B S. Ray.
Mr. S. R. Hoyle offered a resolution that the pro
cecdiogs of the meeting be published in the Demo
cratic papers of this city, which was adopted.
On motion, the meet then adjourned.
T. W. J. Hill, Chairman.
Burgess Smith, lq orr „t*rW
John B. Baird, f Secretaries.
Motley Crowd.—In accordance with a
previous announcement the Republicans of Fulton
[bled at the Capitol Building at 8 o'clock last
evonlng.
The meeting was called to order by a disciple of the
Grant faction, and James L. Dunning requested to
act as Chairman.
Dunning responded in a few remarks, thanking hia
colored brethren for the honor thus conferred, and in
troduced Hon.;Ucniy P. Farrow as orator of the oc-
ision.
The crowd was meagre, except aa to the “colored
troops'* who pretty well filled the gallcrirs. ▲ few
rerpccteble white citizens assembled to listen to tho
discourse, rather through curiosity, many of whom
left before Farrow got through.
The occasion throughout only served to remind one
that the Republican party in this State la forever
dead. Hr, Farrow spoke an boor; made a general
tirade upon Greeley and all who favor conciliatory
; charged Hr. Hill with trying to decoy the
true Democracy from the path of virtue to the sup
port of a worse Radical Jhaneven Grant himself.
Farrow, in quite a distasteful manner, attempt
ed a vindication of the reconstruction measures, and
in support of the suspension of the habeas corpus in
Sooth Carolina quoted Reverdy Johnson. After
many fruitless attempts to elicit applause from the
motley crowd. Hr. Farrow Introduced for the amuse
ment of hia bearers a dog-story which produced the
desired effect.
He compared Toombs to a grizzley bearwho polled

to ride fifty jards. He said that Hr Hill waa rather
partial to making toon to heaven, and wound ap by
saying that be was In hopes that when he should take
his exit he would carry on his wings his friends

James Adkins was then Introduced for the purpose
of giving an account of hia trip to the Philadelphia
Convention, by way of a sort of love-feast for the
hungry souls; and proceeded to give a vivid account
of the proceedings of that august body. Remarking
that a main feature of in the deliberations of that
assembly was the discussion of a resolution offl-red
by a West Virginian to the effect that the Republican

Washington, D. C., J une 17.—The follow
ing to a brief synopsis of the statement of
the area and condition of the present cotton
crop, which will appear in the June report
of the department of agriculture:
An increase in the cotton area is reported
in every State. A very small proportion of
comity returns show a decrease of acreage.
Planting was generally retarded by a pro
tracted season of dronth, and fields that
were planted late occasioned some trouble in
obtaining perfect stands, but the recent rains
and renewed efforts in re-planting, have
finally secured stands of averge compliment.
The percentage of increase in the area of
last year's crop being the basis of comparison,
to as follows: North Carolina, 16; South
Carolina, 9; Georgia, 12; Florida, 10; Ala
bama, 11; Mississippi, 10; Louisiana, U;
Texas, 18; Arkansas, 16; Tennessee, 12. The
average increase throughout the cotton States
will approximate 13 per cent. Texas hss
naturally made the largest relative increase,
not only having enjoyed a favorable
season for planting, but also during
the past year having received accessions of
immigrants, who jure cotton planters. The
condition of the plant throughout the cotton
section to very nearly a fall average: Sep
arating the Atlantic from the moet'wesUTir
States the former stand to a little below an
average and the latter are folly np to the
standard and of fair condition. Tbcdrongbt
which prevailed in April and the first half of
May delayed the growth, and the cold nights
in the more northern belt had a farther re
tarding effect, bat the abundant rains and
general temperature which followed have in
vigorated and advanced the crop:
The following figures represent the condi
tion of cotton in tho several States, one
hundred standing for an average: North
Carolina,00; South Corelina. 92; Georgia, 96;
Florida,95; Alabama, lO^MississipA 100;
Louisiana, 101; [Texas, 100; Arkansas, 98;

and compensation increased from $150 to
$3 per day. The Superintendent of the com
pany refused to accede to their demands, ex
plaining as a reason that the company’s con-
trrcls were based on wages heretofore paid
the strikers.
Some three hundred or more of the strikers
sat on the curb stones most of the day, wait
ing to hear from laborers at other points,
thus indicating a general strike.
TJrn House of Delegates here unanimously
passed a bill constituting eight boors a day’s
work, and $3 a day’s pay, for laborers on
work under control of the District govern

The tobacco manufacturers who have been
storing large quantities of tobacco in bonded
warehouses since the 6lh of Juno, the time
when the revenue law was signed by the
President, are astonished at the decision of
Commissioner Douglas, that tobacco put in
bond since that date and withdrawn for con
sumption must pay the present tax of 33
cents per pound. The Commissioner says
the wording of the law is to that effect and
that only. The tobacco in bond on that day
to entitled to be withdrawn after July 1st at
the new rate of 30 per pound.
Telegrams and letters in huge numbers
were yesterday received from merchants in
New York, Philadelphia, Baltimore, and
Richmond, asking if there to not some mis
take. Mr. Douglas replied that he had no
discretion in the matter, and the parties ag
grieved must appeal to Congress for relief.
A number of tobacco dealers are under the
impression that after July 13 they will be en
titled to a refund in the difference in the old
tax of 33 cents and the new tax of 30 cents
on all tobaccos in their possession. Commis
sioner Douglas is preparing a letter to the
effect that such applications arc useless, and
no such provision to made in the new law.

by the city government and collation ended

Democrats will shun it.

Remarks.—This morning warm with some
slight appearanao of rain. The general trade
of tho city has been sluggish during the
morning with its general features similar to
those of Saturday. Tho reports from the
crops in this section arc favorable.
Cotton.—Accounts of the growing crop
of the United States is looked forward to
with great interest at home and abroad, as
last year’s yield was not heavy, and it is
known in England that the current year there
will bo no material increase in the supply
from other countries than tho United States.
Engtuh manufacturers complain greatly at
the high prices, bat France and somo other
countries are anticipating an increase of its
consumption. Thcro is no reason to presume
that there will be much of a reduction in
prices nntcM the yield of the Southern States
should exceed that of last year by more than
a million bales. We will sec bow it stands
by giving the acreage in cotton.
The total number of acres in all the South
in 1870 was 8.885JS45; in 1871 the acreage
was 7,811,696, and Juno 1,1873, tho acreage
was 8,807,647. The total acreage, it will be
seen, docs not materially d ffer from that of
187a The crop of *70 was favored by the
season, being an excellent one both for cotton
cultivation and picking; hence wo have no
right to presame that the growing crop will
exceed tho one of 1870-71. Just now the
crop promises well, but the spring was unfa
vorable, and in somo localities there was
trouble in procuring stands, and doubtless
the crop will mature late. These things will
do to think of. An accurate-estimate of the
yield of the crop cannot be arrived at Tbc
growing has its trials ahead. Excessive rains
and worms may almost utterly blast it. At
present the crop may be summarized as doing
well and promising well; still there arc
many contingencies between this and the
picking season, which may neutralize the
promiso of the present
In speaking of cotton, ono great regret to,
that perhaps one-third of the growing crop
will be called for to pay for the com pur
chased to raise it, ao that ono-third to spent
before fairly planted. Com,’bacon, mules*
hay, wheat, clover, and other things should
be raised far more extcnsivci/by our people
than they are. Then the proceeds of the
cotton crop would remain here at homo, to
build up schools for tho education of onr
youth, thus improving tho manners of our
people; refining their tastes; elevating their
intellects; and advancing their social charac
ter. If our people willed it, much of this
money could be kept at home, then roiling
mills, factories, forges, furnaces, and other
branches of industry would be increased and
encouraged. It could bo used to nourish our
State, to develop our strength, and to enrich
her borders. It could be invested in making
more fertile onr broad fields, in harnessing
onr waterfalls to machinery, and in bringing
to light and use our rich minerals, for these
things are the bulwarks of our strength and
independence. If this was done it would
bring happiness to our people, permanence to
our wealth, employment to many now idle,
and electrify our whole State with new life
and energetic action.
Corn.—The demand has been steady for
the past week, but not sufficient to keep the
stock reduced. Receipts were larger than for
tho previous week, and orders for yellow and
mixed can be readily filled. Stocks of white
afe small, and orders arc frequently delayed
for several days

confined to the better grades. Lower grades
