The C.aitltwtloni In the town of Stone HountalD, DcKalb okaly, occurred an event, within a few thys, (chronicled in yeste.day’s issue,) which datws the position occupied by Tns Cotr- Titsiiow among De nocrats all over the State. At the election by the Mayor and Council of the various city officers for 1878, Tns Atlanta Cosstitotiox was elected City Printer. True, this election will con far hut little more than tho honor, os the amount of printing will bo neoctsarily quite small. But the honor is highly appreciated, for It pro vos tho esteem in which Thb Con stitution, the unswerving champion of the .Democracy of Georgia, Is held by tree Demo crats throughout the S.ala. Georgia Laws for |*T*. TVe have received from Messrs. Hemphill * Oo., fcStsto Printers, an advanced copy of the Statutes of Georgia, passed by the Gen eral Assembly of 1872. This volume contains the official drafts el seta of pre-eminent Importance to every man la the Shite, be he lawyer, merchant or fann er. The most Important of these appear in tueeirly part of the volume, and are acts de claring the State endorsement on certain bonds null and void. In order to ft dear con ception cf the questions that will be started at the coming session of the .Legislature it will be necessary to preserve these docu- -ratals.

The Relative Rank at Slate.. Among the many Interesting revelations of the census report of 1770 is that of the pres ent relative rank of the Stales in population, as compared with their rank in 1800.

The contest recalls the day* of aid. The old war-horses of Georgia politics are oa the track. The presence of Stephrns and Jolin- aon and the spirits of ante-war days brings back the former years.

No man la the Slate has a grander brain. The power and culture of hb Intellect have been widely recognized. The finish of hb State papers as a Governor was only equalled by the ponderous strength of their thought And some of the best Informed members as sert that next to Gordon Gov.

Judge Underwood borders oa th* middle ground—between the old and near candi dates. He has been a laborious party man, and bas had lob of old politics in bb life, but he grapples new questions like a aew fir Governor. His entire administration has been able and impartial. Bui there has been a personal phase in thb matter, especially gratifying to CoL Trammell and creditable to many Senators. A recent misrepresentation was generally cir- cnbted to hb damage and vigorously used by the Radicals in the late gabtrns’.orial con test. The matter recoiled to hb ad vantage and rallied to him hb acquaintances as well as friends. Several leading names were suggested for the Presi dency, among them those, prominent Sena tors, CoL Lester, CoL Harris and Mr. Erwin Yet these gentlemen, under the generous im pulse of a friendly regard, declined to enter the race, and Joined in the cherns of a con dusive vindication of their friend and col league, by a unanimous vote for tho blghe> office in the Senatorial body.

Since thej war 1 which swept over our. common confltry, various and earnest efforts have been made to secure for us * portion of ihat immense foreign Immigration which has built up the East and West of-the Union. Bat os these effort* were of a desultory char- ocier, lacking the weight which combination gives to every undertaking, the results, though in themselves flattering, hive had no effect on our material welfare. Georgia, within the past few days, has, at Macon, in augurated * movement which it ia hoped will receive the fail and cordial sanction of her Legislature; ' and which would secure, as far as Georgia is concerned, a be ginning of Foreign Immigration and Trade to her shores upon * permanent and subetan- tial basis. But Georgia looks farther into the future than merely to seek to draw with in her borders a few thousand immigrants and a score of steamers to her porta per an num. She feels that her greatest future pros perity to inseparable from that of her Soutit Atlantic and Gulf sister States, contingent upon unbroken rail and water communica tions with the centres of trade of the far West, with Mobile, New Orleans and Gal- veiton. - In measure os these perilous of our coun try will prosper, she will prosper; since a'.lko by a happy geographical position, a mild climate and untuld resources she fur nishes through her haibors the surest, swift est and cheapest opportunity for the West and Southwest for direct intercourse with Europe. A great aud important movement is already in progress tending to this hippy consummation, in which the West aud South west are alike deeply interested—tbe project of tbe Atlantic aud Great Western CanaL Actual experience has shown that the es- tablLhment of Foreign Immigration to our shores to t>y no means an easy matter. Pre judices abroad have to be removed; we must make ourselves known, and the great induce ments and advantages which our Southern country offers.
