Ayer, the pat ent medicine man. died recently in a lunatic asylum, has attracted the atten tion of some of the ablest journalists in tbe country. The theory of these talented citizens is that toe doctor’s in-, talleet wsa overworked, and it is s very plausible one.

These are im portant matters, and-it Is to be hoped that Dr Felton will give them bis ear- lie.-t attention. Ir there was any more evidence oeedtd to convince us that tie Indians ate naughty and boisteionr, tbe fact that they persist in attacking the great and good O. O.

The election in tbe state to the west of us is the next one on the political calendar, occurring a* it does oa tbe fifth of next month. Kentucky usually elects a legislature and state officers in August, but this year the Is not com pelled, owing to the biennial feature c f her constitution, to sustain the strain of a popular verdict. In Alabama the democrats bold tbe field without despote. The republican of the state met at Montgomery last Friday, but they decided to burl a lot of words in the shape of a platform at the democrats, and let the fight go at that. A resolution to nominate a sta’e ticket was promptly tabled, and the representatives of Alabama's "vast re- republican msjority" thereupon dis pelled. Cunning fellows I They will now be able to conceal their weaknesi as a party, while they claim all avail- able patronage from the administration on the strength of having been buff dtxed. Tbe gullible northern voter will be urged to stand np again "for the old flrg,” because the republicans of Alabama are martyrs In their devotion to the onion, when the truth is, they are simply not numerous enough to make a ticket or more than tbe sem blance of an organisation desirable. The democrats ot the state on the other band are acting hopefully and unitedly. Their state ticket stands uu- aaaailed and unassailable. Kufos W. Cobb, the candidate for governor, has been a leadei ot the state senate so long that he is well known throughout the state, and the other candidates of the state ticket are men of capacity and integrity. The platform sets forth the usl claims of the party, as the one that has given and will continue to give tbe s'ate peace, boueet rule and prosperity; shows that the prevailing financial distress is due to the profits gate expenditures, fraudulent practices and class legislation of the republican party; commends the administration of Governor Houston; points to the improved financial condition cf tbe state as an evidence of the good faith of the party, and congratulates tbe tax payers upon the prospect of a reduc tion in the rate ot taxation without an Impairment of the good name of the etate. finch a ticket and such a plat form will sweep the state, with or without oppseitiou. fall back to his beloved Ohio. Neither esme to s*ay, and neither will stay even in a legal sense beyond his sen atorial term. The democrats of Arkansas held their state convention last week, and a] though it took two days, harmony and an admirable ticket were among the results. Governor Miller was renomi nated on the fifteenth ballot, and the rest of the ticket down to the nominee for chancery clerk un acceptable men. It is understood that Gov. Miller represents those who favor a scaling down of the immense bonded indebtedness of the state in stead of an inducrim’.nate repudiation of the whole of ii. There is no repub. licau party in the state, but it is po» sible that the repudiationists and radi cals may come to the surface in the fashionable guise of independency. £x Gov. Rector is sa-d to be willing to lead such a motly lot; but whether he does or not, there is no chance to de feat the democratic ticket. The platform adopted by the late convention is a goed one. It keeps step to popular music. It favors tbe substitution of United States treas ury notes for national bank bills and their being made full legal tender save where a contract specifies otherwise; deplores tbe contraction of tbe curren cy ; opposes further increase of the in terest-bearing debt; favors the “equali sation of tbe value of the greenback^il- ver and gold for all purposes, so that a national dollar shall be a dollar among all our people and in every de partment of our government”; de- It is to be hoped that the republicans will not revise their present programme. We could wish lor nothing better than to meet them on thla issue, just as we could wish for nothing better than to have them wave the bloody shirt and raise once more tbe outrage howL If the claims issue is made with any thing like the pertinacity which the tone of the organs would seem to indi cate, it would be the means of settling in a very effectual manner a question that would have been settled effectual ly long ago but for the wilfulnees of the republican majority in congress in voting appropriations for all sorts of fraudulent claims. Johnfiherman, in a speech made in Ohio some time ago, boasted that the party, of which he is the distinguished type and emblem, had paid loyal claims in the southern state* to the amount of thirty millions of dollars; and it is just possible that his boast fell short of the truth. Since 1865. it has been the policy of the re publican 'party to take up southern claims and pass them to payment in spite of tbe protests of the democrats; and in spite of all the convulsions that the organs are now undergoing, it is certain that if the party ever obtains possession of congress again, tbe claims now pending will share the same fate as those upon which John Sherman breed his basteiul utterances. In this matter of southern claims the democrats—the souUurn democrats, at least—will be glad to join hands with the ultra -patriotic republicans, who are now in an apparently hopeleea state of than their favorite receives the nomina tion.

Two years will probably bring about completion of the missing links, and make tbe Tennessee and Carolina rail road systems one for the purpoeee of throngh traffic. Both of the Carolinaa are looking forward to -this result, Iu tbe cidiee of a year the Spartanburg extension will be completed to Asheville, where it must await the completion of theSwanannoa lunnel under the troublesome Blue Ridge. This tunnel ia on the North Carolina extension, which ia to be joined at Asheville by the South Caro lina branch. Beyond the great tunnel there are sixty miles of track to be built to reach Faint Rock on thh Ten nessee line. From Asheville to Faint Rzk the line runs downtBeeaay-goieg French Broad, and at hast forty per cent, of the grading ia completed. It thought that in two years’a time both of the Carolina branches can and will be completed to Faint Rock, giving both Charleston and Beaufort direct lines to the north- wee - . This, however, depends upon tbe completion of the Tennessee links, of which there is not lunch douhr. The gap from Wolf Creek to Paint Rxk ia short, and the officers of the East Ten- i, Virginia and Georgia company say that that they will be at Faint Rock aa soon as the Carolinians are. A gap ol about fifty miks remains to be built in order to tap the Cincinnati Southern road, the future great north and nonth trunk line below the Ohio river. If no other corporation would build this connection, Cincin nati would; for she could not afford to let aneb opportunities of direct com mnnica' ion tie unimproved. The completion of the Cincinnati Southern will, therefore, be quickly followed by the completion of connec tions with bo’h of the Oerotioas. II about the same time Georgia's North eastern road could be pushed-through Rabun Gap, are would all “stand th” when these important railway changts are made. There is nothing more cer tain than that the Northeastern will a otne day tap the coal beds and grana ries of east Tennessee; but it depends upon us to any whether we will enjoy tbe results of such a work or let them go over to the next generation. Toe final extinguisher upon tie class southern claims that have heretofore been so popular with the magnanimous republican majority in congress. Two- thirds of the southern claims now pending in congress are oi the class known aa “loyal” cla ms—that is to say, they are claims for damages done by the federal troops when thev occu pied tba sonth, the parties so damaged claiming to have been loyal to the union daring tbe war,and to all intents and pnrpoaes inimical to the success ol the confederates. In n word, in claim ing restitution ior property destroyed by the federate, they confess that, mor ally at least they were traitors to their section and their state. Thera are many just claims pending, and these will be paid, but the organs need have no (ears that tho southern democratic congressmen will not co-operate with them moe. cordially in putting an end to the avenge southern claim. Not only eo, tbe solid sonth will regard it aa a species of republican reform -a step in the direction of trne economy — a timely lesson to teach those who, liv ing in the aonth) yet desired to see their section dismantled and overran, and their neighbors impoverished and preyed upon. Let the organa cheer op. Southern claimants who depend on southern democratic votes to pass their claims to payment will have but scant opportu nity to congratulate themselves upon democratic successes. So far as the re publicans are concerned, the war they -r4 making on eouthern claims is in tbe direction ok reform—a gqaat improve ment over the attitude of the party vhen John Sherman was going about boasting that a radical progress had oaid out thirty millions ot dollars to ‘loyal” men in the sonth.

These methods < no body the g< rm of an evil that will sooner or later, if the people do not taka the matter iu hand, develop into dissensions, and bickerings and divis ions in every district in th« etate. The democratic party cannot succeed where tbere is a lack cf fcarmODy and unity among its members; so that whatever is calculated to mar the har mony or destroy tbe unity essential to victory is an evil to be firmly and vig orously corrected. One of the most important articles of onr political creed is that the success of the democratic party —the triumph of the principli l hst party—ia far more essential, far more important, than the success of any man or any set of men, and when are believe that tbe success ol the party ia in tbe remotest degree endan gered by the ambition ci any of its numbers we shall not hesitate to sharp- *n our protest with such criticism aa circumstances may seem to snggsat. As matters now stand we feel called opon to enter a protest against the ac tion of tbe various district committees iu postponing tbe nominating conven tions tor the purpose, aa it woold ap pear, oi giving the virions aspirants an opportunity to stir up the feeling of partisanship which invariably exists wherever tbere are three or four popu lar men striving for the same prise. An active canvas* by rival candidates in advance ef the nomination is to be deplored, and, at this particular junc ture, is decidedly dangerous. It ia cal culated to develop and nurse into life a spirit of dissatisfaction among the people. Each candidate has hie par ticular friends and these friends form a faction which will not be satisfied with the nomination of the convention unless tbeii vorite ia selected to represent the party. This is human nature, and tbe remedy is, not to make an attempt to relorm bnman nature, but to take to usk those who have conspired to bring about this stale oi things. The amateur politicians most bo taught that conven tions are held for the convenience of ■he people and not for the convenience oi candidates who may desire to convert the district* into political hippodromes and go aronnd the circnit arousing spirit oi partisanship among their friends. Ii those whose duty it ia call the conventions cannot be taught bv mild criticism that it is the conven ience of the people and not the conven ience oi candidates that ia to be sub served, then some more effectual method most be resorted to. Aa an illustration ot the evil to which we have alluded, we neeJ go no further than the fifth district. The candidates for the nomination, whose names have thus Ur been mentioned, are good men, worthy oi the confi dence of the people and the oal ’ support of the party. They are ail lire IpipuUr, and a!j have Urge foUowtpga uu [ juthp district.

The Unit ia not with the aspirants. It U with those who have control of the party machinery by which conventions called. By postponing the assem bling of theee bodies to a very late date they have given an opportunity for an independent candidate to come in and take advantage oi the lukewarmness and dissatisfaction certain to be engen dered among the more enthusiastic friends of the defeated candidates. Tho remedy U a very simple one. The district committees have only to re member that conventions are called for the convenience of the people and not for the conveniei.ee oi candidates. The committees should remember, more over, that their power proceeds from the people and that it is to be exercised wholly in the interest of the people. As to the conventions, it is a good old democratic rale that candidates should be men of snch prominence end pop ularity that their nomination will add strength to the party—and it is a rule that cannot be too rigidly enforced. Tbe selection of a standard-bearer should be so carefully made that tbe party and not tbe man will be strengthened thereby. We want har. mony and unity in the democratic racks. Blunders such aa thoee wo have beea mildly criticising are nothing more nor lees than inviUtions to independ ent candidates to take advanUge of the bickerings and dissatisfaction of rival factions of rival candidates. We do not desire to see political hippodromes established ih Georgia—circuits around which good men are led by their ambition, and who, annwittingly and thoughtlessly, sow tbe seeds discontent and division. If we apeak plainly it is because the time for plain speaking has come. Tbe peo ple, and thoee rfh° represent the peo ple are growing tired. The question oi preserving democratic harmony and organisation in the aUte, in the dis tricts and in the counties is vital. We care nothing whatever for the personal success of any candidate. What wa desire-whar Ihe people desire—is ths triumph of the democratic party and principles. What every loverSfEfe ^“1““ country and his section desires is the - - preservation inuct of that organization which has saved the eonth—which has saved GeoigU—and which, we hope and believe, will save the country. There can be no success without it Ii the sdministration oi the government to be wrested from tbe knavery and corruptions ot those who now have control, it mu9t be done by the demo cratic organization, and it is in this view ol the case that we enter onr pro test against any and every movement! inside of the party or out of it, that seems to point, even indirectly, toward ultimate dissension and division.
