A Question of No Principle.
‘•Certainly, the friends of both
Al’.iuiia and* Miltedircville cannot be
bl uued tor living enthusiastic in be
half,,: their respective pities. This
in right and proper, as the question
involt es no principle, but is simply
one of local interest in which U is
3 uite natural that lmth of these «iiea
lould feel deep concern. .As to the
question of economy in locating the
Capital, it can hardly enter into tl e
discussion; for in this particular,
neither side ha* the_ advantage.
Whether Atlanta or Milledgeville be
public buildings at
iegs there to the requirements of our
present increased necessities of gov*,
eminent, would be well nigh equal*
lized by the cost of making the needed
improvements in the Capitol Luild*
ings at Atlanta, is a fact which we
c.nnot well see how even our friends
themselves can question. Yes, we
still adhere to our former position
that there is no principle of govern*
meiit involved in the question as to
where our Capital shall be, and that
the question of ecouomyas we view
it. is so nearly equal on both sides
that ii cannot justly be brought iulo
the discussion. Then the question
lor the peopie to decide, is that of
comfort and convenience Titcre are
those who will be largely controlled
by' sentiment, and local attachments;
there are others who will cousider
the advantages of legislation better
subserved in Milledgeville, while
others will se.k to present counter
balancing advantages in favor of At*
lanta; and so the people will be di*
vided on this question, upon issues

elected as Representative of Clark county ; we the
undersigned citizens and voters, appreciating your
faithful efforts as our Representative in the past,
and believing that justice to you demands it,
request that you consent to allow your name to bo
presented for the Democratic nomination to rep- 1||arked forder* ot brilliaii

We quote the altove from the

That a gentleman, usually so correct,
as Dr. Carlton, the ediio- of that
journal, and oue too, who is well ill-
formed upon most subjects, should
make such a mistake somewhat. as-
tnuishe* us. The doctor certainly
did not write in the hglit of the tacts,
for we know him too well, to think
for a moment that he would misrep
resent so vital a matter, vital not only
to th- city of Milledgeville, hdt to the
whole j»eo pie of the Slate of Georgia
We must be allowed to reilera e
fi-_.aiii what has been so often saiu be
en the part of tbe friends of both
places, yet as a whole or majority
they cannot be expected to submit
their cooler judgments to, or partake
ot; the wild enthusiasm, the over
zealous partisanship which may ob

to reside cither iu Atlanta or Mil*

—The Shah of Persia lias sent to
tbe South Kensington Museum in
London a fine array of Modern Per*
sain carpets and embroidery. Some
of the carpets made in Kurdistan are
very beautiful, with flowers strewed
over a white ground, and with 'veil
colors.
Most of the embroidery is executed
in chain-stitch alter a pattern the
centre of which is a rosette snri ound-
by geometrically arranged flowers.
—In the annual statement of the
fiuaueiul condition of Italy for 1876,
it appears that sixly*nine millions of
lire were invested in lottery tickets in
the Government cash boxes. O-
course but a small proportion of this
money went back to • the successful
gamblers. Since 1868 the State has
received 881 million- from this source
and returned in prize 516 millions
and a half, pocketing profit in four*
teen years 365,000,000.
—The commissioners of the gener*

from tiie special agent at Denver,

this body for several years past, has
been marked by earnest work and
endeavor to s;*rve his constituency

regard Mr. Carlton as one of the
ablest of the old house, aud his peo

worth and ability in requesting him
to become a candidate.— Old Capi

The Southern policy of President
ilayes needs no belter juslficaiion
iu tliu estimation of all honest repub
licans, than the disclosures of Ex-
for.-, that ihe Cap t:d building in this | Treasurer Niles G. Parker aud his
city, as w* II as the Governor’^ Man* j accomplices as to the elaborate scheme
of l oobery and oppression which they
planned and executed fur years in
sion are such as would do m- uiscred-
it to any Slate in he union" The
building was improved and j-iit in
thorough lepair in 1866 There are
no less than twenty -nine n-oips iur
the state house officers, besides the
Supreme Court room, aud iliutoen*-
bly halls. These latter, seated the
general assembly must comiortably
when eveiy county had a senator, aud
the a*8 nibly consisted *»i 27U mem*
bers Now it consists ot less tnau
220. V
Atlanta admitted that *the Capitol
here was all that could l-e desired
when she proposed to the Convention
to build one as good us this, and now
sho aud her iiieuds argue that it is
entirely insufficient Was there not
then an insincerity iu her pr«nositiou?
Now then having stated this much,
which tve assure the Georgian is nue,
will it not admit there is a principle
involved—the principle of economy,
the saving of the money ot the imp *•
verished people of the State. This is
the principle—no more nor less. Will
the Georgian do us justice by publish
ing these facts.
As requested, we cheerfully give
space to the above, not however, he*
cause we consider that we have done
injustice to the Milled, evillu hide of
the question or that we view the facts
in the same light with our friends of
the Old Capital. Certainly it was
not our intention to disparage the
claims of Milledgeville or enhance
those of Atlanta to the right ot be
coming the future capital of Georgia
O ir oi.ject was simply to coun el
justice and moderation on the part of
those who had essayed lo become I lie
champions of either city nd who un
fortunately had given way to too
hitter a partisanship That o.u-
friends should have seen or imagined
t e slightest injustice in our remarks,
quite us much astonishes u*, us our
not being able to view the facts
t- rough the same partial lig.it with
»: e.nselves, seems to nstouish them
U-*w«-ver much tve might favor
Luiedgcville as the future Capital, or
L. never much we might prclcr At-
Jiu.ta as such, we could not gain our
v -iisem to shut our eyes, to what we
South Carolina. It exposes iu all its
hiueous proportions the mass ot f raud
and corruption the Graut policy ere-*
ateU aud encouraged, by which the
helpless people of Soutn Carolina
were ei ushed down for more than a
uecadc of years, and which would
ii vc continued indefinitely had Grant
amt his gang becu still }ierinittcd to
rule. Had there been no Grant,
Forcer and bis robberies would have
be. u au improbability. It.wns Grant
who let loose upon the downtrodden
aud 'helpless Southern people the
horde of freebooters who sowed dis
coid and lawlessness broadcast over
the land that Uiey might reap all
abundant harvest ot plunder and
spoliation. The moment tuut Presi
dent Hayes revoked the robbers’
license, and permitted the restoration
ot law ai.d honest government, the
enormity of the conspiracy was ex
posed, the conspirators became
ti ighiened, and Imping to escape the
punishment due to their crimes,
turned {State’s evidence, disclosing a
history of villainy unsurpassed in
wickedness and cruelty.
Parker, cmiueiitly inlAiiious though
he be, is not a whit .worse than many
of Grant’s privileged plunderers.
While poor Carolina was bound hand
and loot, while persecution followed
res.staiice and stifled protest, Parker
and Patterson, Chamberlain and
Cardozo, reveled in theft front petty
larceny to highway robbery. But
when tbe presidential license was
withdrawn, the combination died
like a rat in an exhausted receiver.
The confession ot Parker not only
shows the magnitude ut his and his
accomplices’ guilt, but it also shows
the magnitude ot the service rendered
to deceucy, morality aud good gov
ernment, by Mv. Ilayes r« lasing to
be their accessory as was his ignoble
predecessor. When his “Southern
lelicve to be plain facts, upon either ' policy” is assailed, he ueeds no more
