Tho following i* what tho editor of tin* (’I’.mlcHtoii New* any* in regard to tho next Governor of Georgia: Siitot) tho withdrawal of Governor Smith from the Held, tho number of conspicuous cuiididntoH for governor of Georgia ha* narrowed down to three* tu four, G<.n. Colquitt appears to have the best ohiineo of beouriiig the nomination. We hope that this will bo ho, for many reasons. Col quitt is no ordinary man. Before the war lie was a member of Congress from Georgia. From tho b»ginning lo tho end of tho war he was in tho Held, nnd served with distinction. For years ho has been ut t lor head of tbo agricultural society, and lie is closely identified with soul hern indus trial and agricultural interests. Pub lic offices, without stint, have been offered him and declined. Tho pop ularity ho oujoys is not that which is sought, but that which follows after. Brave as a Paladin, shunless as Bay ard. statesman, gentleman and pa triot, what son more worthy and tit ling can Georgia Hud in this trying aenson ? In what Georgia does, tho South has an interest, and went leasl,know ing her people and grateful to them watch thoir uteps with loving eyes. Colquitt belongs to tho south, and his name ami fume «»ro not Georgia's alone. For tli> reason and for the ptido we havo in him, we hope that the reports that oorno to us uro true, and that General Colquitt will as cer tainly be nominated as ho will stm ly l»o triumphantly t* looted if ho boo mica tbo standard bearer of tho democracy of the Shite.
