ADDRESS OF THE STATE CENTRAL.
gXKOrTIVK tOtlMITTEE OE THE
democratic party of Georgia*

7, 18G8. J
Kooms Central Executive Committee
Of the National Democratic Party
Macon, March 27,
To the People of Georgia:
The Committee appointed in accordance with
he resolutions of the Convention, held in the
citv of Macon on the 5th and 6th of last De-
coniber, with authority to call State Conventions,
as often as may be necessary, and to indicate,
at the proper time, the policy which, in their
judgment, may be best adapted to subserve and
promote the public good, have deemed it inex-
pedient to call a State Convention, upon the
short notice which must necessarily be given to
consider and determine what action shall be
adopted in reference to theJConstitution framed
hy the late Convention at Atlanta, and to nom
inate a candidate to lie run by the Democratic
Puriv of Georgia in the election to be held on
the _ 'th of next month.
Feeling the importance of diffusing early in
formation among the people upon the subjects
which will come before them, the Committee,
in the exercise of the authority vested in them,
resolved to proceed to immediate action, and
to indicate the policy, which, in their judgment,
i.» best adapted to promote the public good.
Two questions are presented to the people in
the election which has been ordered for the 20th
of April:
First. Shall the paper submitted by the Con
vention, as the fundamental law of Georgia, be
ratified or rejected ?
Second \Y no shall administer the Govern-
uvu:. under the new Constitution, if adopted ?
Under the rules and regulations which will
govern the approaching election, and look
ing to the necessity ot saving the State from
the disgrace and degradation of a domination
which will carry ruin in iis train, the policy
best adapted to promote the public good will
bt to vote “against the Constitution.”
To enumerate the many objections, which
may be legit imate’.y urged against that in-
Bhument. would swell this address to an un
reasonable length. There is one so promin
ent and overwhelming that wo jwould be
derelect in duty it we were to pass it by un
noticed.
We call your special attention to the llth
Section of the 11 ih Article, which is in these
words: “Should this Constitution be ratified
by tho people, and Congress accept the same
with any qualifications or conditions, the
government herein provided for and the offi
cers elected shall nevertheless exist, and con
tinue it» the exercise of their several func-
th-rs. as the government ot this Slate, so far
as ihe same may be consistent with the ac
tion of the United States in the premises.”
This section presents Georgia in the atti
tude of seeking admission into the Union
npou any qualifications or coudilious wnich
the present iiudicul Congress, bitter and ma
lignant as it is, may prescribe. It the whue
ncople of Georgia can stoop so low as io go
belore a Radical Congress in that attitude,
iheu, indeed, they will have drained the cup
->t humiliation to the very dregs. Lost to
every sense of honor, and recreant to the
dearest interests of his State, will be
be who can vote for a Constitution wild
such a provision. What Georgian so base,
and so forgetful of the honor of his native
Siate, as to subject our good old Gomrnbn-
wealtu to such humiliation ? Let the instru
ment containing the infamous proposition be
-rejected with scorn and iodiguation. We
me strong lauguage, but not stronger than
the subject demands.
If it be not out of place, we especially
i wxru one class of our lellow-cillzens, who
are opposed to the Constitution upon prin
ciple, and yet feel constrained to vote for it
on account of the pecuniary relief which it.
will ufiord them, to beware of tbe cheat
about to bo imposed upon them. They ex
cuse their vote lor ratification solely upon
the ground of obtaining relief from an in
debtedness,, which,* on account of tho des
truction of their property by tho Govern
ment, they are unable to discharge. Tho»e
who indulge in hopes of relief from this
source are doomed to bo disappointed. But
ttieir disappointment is not the worst part of
the matter.
It is tuo deception practiced upon them
which is most reprehensible. This deception
is attempted by men who once stood high in
public favor. One who has enjoyed, to a
g*eater extent than any other individual,
the highest honor the people of Georgia can
bestow, is urgent in his appeals to the people
to adopt the Constitution on account of the
clause which relieves them from their debts.
But he knows, and must know, that if the
UonHiiiution be submitted to Congross with
au iuvitation to qualify or modity it, as they
May see proper, it will come buck shorn of
ha relief measure, anil the expectation*
which he so industriously labors to excite
"ill never be realized. Those who may
v ote fjr the Cons hu'ion, under the delusive
hope of obtaining relief from iheir iudebled-
^ss, will mah imo tbe net which is spread
io catch them; but when in, the bait which
luied them on will disappear, and they will
1 • cntiiugied iu metshtb irom which there
will be uo escape.^
There is but ouc course for honest men to
pursue, aud that is to nj«ot indignantly
the br.be which is offered for their votes, and
v ith it the men who would deceive aud be
tray them.
Gu“ other objection to the adoption of the
C jnsiiuitinii ftiid the government it iB in-
1 uiied to organize, we beg leave tp urge,
ti-ai is the heavy expense it will entail upon
tbe State.
it inuy be safely affirmed that if tbe new
government shall go into operation accord-
l!! § to the provisions of the proposed Con-
sntutiiin, ii will, upon a moderate, estimate,
C"5t the sitate not leas than'$3,000,000.
Why throw this heavy Jmrdeo upon the
people in their present impoverished condi
tion? Why do it, wtiv,/ there is no actual
M-Cessity t 0 r it? Why a he euormous expense
1( ir substituting a acw Constitution in the
place oi one al/:*,/ iu operation, and with

. ,..ncal party permanent power
vm ‘* This is the true object, wbat-
r may' oe the pretext to the eoutrary.—
“ d that class of persons lor whose especial
cfcuefit ihja reconstruction measure is thrust
D Pon the State, and wao are to he invested
"’ith the right of suffrage in the new organi
zation, will bear but little, if any, of this
heavy burden. Almost its entire weight will
fall upon those who own the taxable prop-
fc, ty. Will they stand it ? Let them answer
at the polls ou the 20th of next month.
Second. Who shall administer the Govern
ment under the new Constitution, if
adopted ?
Looking to a contingency that may oconr t
tbe liiends of order and good government in
all the counties’ and Senatorial district* of
this State are invoked to bring out their
Wisest and best men, who are eligible to seat*
Ju the Legislature, and not to lemit their la-
bors until they shall have secured their elec
tion.
If thh Constitution now to be voted on
Khali be adopted and-become the fundamen
tal law of tfie‘ land, the first Legislature
which will assemble after its adoption will
have the most vital interest of the people
in their bands, and will control the destinies
of the State for years to come. How im
portant, then, that legislation, in the com
mencement of the new government, take a
right direction. How immensely important
that it be' controlled by virtue and intelli
gence—by “wisdom, justice and modera
tion,’’ and not by igaerance, corruption and
malignity.
If the friends of good government prevail
and secure a majority in both branches of
the Legislators, w« may feel assured, at
least, that our fellow-citizens will not be dis
turbed in the enjoyment of their political
rights. But if, on the other hand, the gov
ernment should fall into tbe hands of men
elected by an ignorant, Irresponsible con-
stituency; having no interests to be affeoted
injuriously by unwise legislation, but having
power, to inflict injury upon others by an
improper choice of legislators—without wis
dom or discretion: to direct them in the
choice of rulers, or virtrte to withstand the
approaches of corruption—we may become,
subject to all the wrongs and oppression
which a venal, corrupt and maligoaut Legis
lature cau inflict.
If any person shall affect to believe tb&t
su h danger is not to be apprehended, let
him look at the condition of the white race
in Tennessee, aud let the white people of
Georgia be warned by her example, aud
save themselves, while they can, from alike
fate.
It your judgmeuts lead you to ratify the
proposed Constitution, unite with us in the
election Ol honest and pure men to make
law? and administer tbe government uuder
it. The organization-which we represent
meets tbe people of Georgia of all parties
and views and feelings in a spirit of concilia
tion and harmony.
We present te the people no candidate for
Governor as our nominee and the represen
tative of all our view*. We find, since the
declension of Judge Reose, whose noble,
wise and Bell sacrificing, patriotic letter is
b fore you, a Georgian already In the field—
an honest, pure, upwright, Christian gentle
man, Judge David Irwin, ol the County of
Cobb. We believe he will administer tbe
Government of Georgia with an eye to the
interests ot all the people without regard to
party, or class, or race, should this Consti
tution be ratified, aud be be elected. We
believe he will an minister it honaatiy. Born
in Georgia, thoroughly trained iu tbe wauts
of her people, and intimately acquainted
with her Bench and Bar, we believe that he
will appoint an honest and pure judiciary to
expound whatever may be made the Consti
tution and the laws. Between such a man
and his opponent we cauuot hesitate a mo
ment, nor do we believe the overwhelming
majority of the intelligence and worth of the
S-.aie cau hesitate. With him a* Governor,
and with wise and good men iu the
Legislature—even should the Consti
tution be adopted—Georgia may survive.
Wilh the adventurers aud plunderers iu-
stulied iulo office, what is left of blood in
her veins will be drawn out by their avarice
aud lust lor spoils, and the State must lan
guish out a miserable existence, aud die at
last of complete depletion.
Fallow-citizens : The issue is before you.
Will you bo ruled by wisdom, virtqe and in
telligence, or by ignorance, stupidity, venal
ity aud corruption ? Choose your fate.
it collect the immense patronage that will
be placed in the hands ot your Governor by
the new Constitution, if it should be adopted:
Ihe control of the Western & Atlantip Rail
road, with its income of over $1,000,000. au-
nually; the nomination of the Judges of the
Supreme and the Superior Courts, the Attor
ney-General, Solicitorw-Gcneral, the Senato
rial District- Judges and Attorneys, the Slate
Senool Commissioner, and to appoint and
commission Notaries Public, not to exceed
one for each militia district, fur a term of
four years, who shall be ex officio Justices of
th« Peace. This is a pari ol the pairouage
to be wielded by your Governor—and pa
tronage is power. Will you place it iu the
hands of u native Georgian, iu whose iuteg-
lity you c m coufioe, or in the hands of a
stranger irom another State, with whom you
are unacquainted, and of whose antecedents
you are ignorant ?
if you select honest and intelligent men to
legislate for you, and put an iucorruptable
patriot in your Executive Chair, al'. will be
weii; but if your legislative halls shall be
filled by men elected to represent an igno-
raut, d. based, degraded constituency, and it
your Chief Magistrate shall depend upon the
same power to put him in office, wbaf other
tesull cau be expected by that venality aud
corruption will fill your offices and be scat
tered broadcast over the laud ? Your legis
lators being corrupt, corruption and malig
nity will euact your laws.
To avert such a calamity will require your
utmost exertions, aud at this time, and in
this crisis, it is absolutely necessary that
all who have not registered should do so at
once, when an opportunity is presented.
Georgia nuu> expects every m in to do his duty.

tional Democratic Party of Georgia.
Cheering New*.—From all parts of the
State, says the Griffin Star, the cheering intel
ligence comes, that the people are up in arms
for Irwin and Conservatism, aud are determined
to make a last, desperate effort to strangle the
Radical snake which is attempting to wind it
fatal coil*'about our homes, and crush out the
last vestige of liberty. A long pull—a sttong
pull, and pull all together, will insure victory.
Let no man sleep over this last chance for self-
defence, before manacle* of slavery be irrevoc
ably fastened upon our helpless limbs.
Serious Diemcultt at Jonesboro.—Two
boys about eighteen years of age, names
Bannister Morrow and John Denton, while
attending a Minstrel Exhibition at Jones
boro’ last night, got into an altercation about
the admission ticket. After the “Show’ ended,
they went down stairs when the quarrel was re
newed, when Morrow called Denton a liar.
Deuton then knocked Morrow down and jumped
upon him and began beating him. While un
derneath, Morrow stab Denton just above the
left hip, the cut penetrating about two inches.
Denton jumped up aud drew a revolver and
shot Morrow in the right leg—when Morrow
sprang to his feet and struck him with a stick.
Denton then fired again, the shot taking effect
in Morrow’s breast—when both fell. Both are
now lying in a critical condition.—Atlanta

The Prostbct of Impeachment —The
Washington correspondent of the Baltimore
Commercial Bays : ■
A general impression Bcems to prevail that
the conviction of the President is a foregone
conclusion. Such indeed, appears to be the
opinion of Ben. Wade; hence his indecent
swaggering and promises of official appoint
ments, but among the best informed in po
litical circles here it is confidently expected
that the whole thing will be a lamentable
failure, and that when it shall be ended even
Ben. Wade will be deposed from his position
as presiding officer of .the Senate, and Fes
senden elected to that position. The Senate
is getting sick of Ben. Wade and Butler and
Logan. They did not bargain for such a
dynasty in deposing Johnson.

claimed for this wed knowo Fertilizer.
Received the “Highest Premium” awarded to Fertilise!* by tha American Institute of
New York, held October, 1867.
For fall report, with analysis r -leby the Committee of fhe Institute, composed of Dr
C. E. Back,* Prot J. G. liable, and other prominent Chemists, see Parorhlets.
The distinguishing feature of this Super-Phosphate from other similar Fertilizers is that
all of its ingredients are of animal origin, and afro either soluble in water, or iff a condition
to quickly become soluble in the sol!, aad be taken up by the Crop.
Cuhtains no inert or mineral materials. | "■ ■'
The proper relative pr-/portion of the ingredient* in Mapes* Super-Phosphate, to meet
the requirements of the Cottbti crop on Georgia and South Carolina eoila, is fully proved
by the experience of Planers, who testify that whenever they applied the flame to land
noted for rusting Cotton, the disease was entirely corrected and a healthy, vigorous
growth produced, off the same land.
Peruvian Guauo and other Fertilizers have failed to secure a healthy growth.
