Remarkable Memory.
Mr. John It. Golding having been
appointed to take the United States
census daring the administration of
President Monroe, developed a re*
markable memory, when ns Master of
Ceremonies, during President Mon
roe’s visit to Athens Ga. in 1819,
he introduced, promptly by name,
every cilixwi in North Georgia to
the President and his attendants*

President Monroe in hifi presiden
lial tour through Georgia, in 1819,
visited Savannah, Augusta,
tun, Lexington and Athens.
Athens entertained a regularly
elected Chief Executive, Presideut
Monroe, in 1819. Atlanta entertained
an nneleotcd Chief Executive, Preii-
dent Hayes, iu 1877. Therefore, is
not Athens justly entitled to become
the future Capitalot Georgia?

friends as the successor of Judge
David Davis on tiie Supreme I'oiirt
bench of the United States.
yield to tiie request of Ex Governor
Johnson’s triends, would lie the best
4i Soutnern policy” President Hayes
could possibly adopt.
President Hayes, in his speech iu
Atlanta, and when alluding to the
war, said. “Tlteie were a larger pro
portion of. trained soldie s in yonr
army at first than in ours.’’ # Well
now the President may he correct on
some taels pertaining to the war and
to the . respective armies but whyirhe
made i lie above statement he must
•have been, well a little hazy.
A Complement to thb Jacksons,
Tatnalls and Tklfaiks.—It is quite
a compliment to these names so
illustrious in the history of Geor-
gia, and the whole country, that they
should have bsen the r cipients of
the following sentiment proposed by
Major General Gaines daring Presi
dent Manroe’s visit to Savannah
Georgia in 1819. “The memory of
Jaokson, Tatuall - -and - Telfair—the
ohoice, the pride, and ornament of
Georgia.” ' The Jackson alinded to
was Gov. Jackson, the grand father'of
Judge James Jackson, now of the
Sup.: erne bench of Georgia.
Glad, yes Vkby Glad —Well,
after all, and notwithstanding, we one
unwilling to admit that Mr. Hayes*
visit to Georgia was any more accep
table to our people, than that of
President Monroe, when be came as
the representative of the “era of
good feeling ” iu 1819, nevertheless,
his deception and his speech shows
that lie has been won over to democ
racy, the conservative principle of
republican or constitutional govern
ment, and this effectually takes the
wind out of- the-'Republican''saiis^
whicti that
with all partisan hate when Congress
iuvgih in October next.
For the third time since the forma-
lion of this Government has Georgia
received Wilhiu her borders its Chief
Executive officer—the President of
the United States Onr readers have
been kept informed or the t ravels »;
the Presidential party sinee it left the
Federal C&pital solUe weeks ago, aurl
most of them have, no doubt, watched
with considerable interest, the mani
festations ot Welcome that have been
already sho<Srer«fit upon Mr. Hayes
since hd crossed the Southern border.
Under all the circumstances, the tour
has been one of the moat remarkable
and eventful ones hi our country’s
history, and we hope and believe it
is fraught, with, good iu its result*
upon sH the peoples of the United
States.- • - When we saw that the Pret-
ideut. was coming.. to Chattanooga,
we supposed that, being thus near
the Empire State of the South, he
might be induced to extend his South
ern tour at least as iar as Atlanta,
her present Capital, and there meet
and niiugle with the people of that
Slate, ..which, though it - gave 80,000
majority against him as a candidate,
is yet ready to welcome, - honor and
support - him - as ^President while lie
abides by and upholds that hallowed
ark of political safety—the Consiitu
tu n framed by the Fathers, which he
lias sworn to support and defend.
Twice before has Georgia lieen
visited by tiie.' President of tiie
United States ;• first by Ge**r:r<‘
Washington, 1 he “Father ot his Coun
try,* and wxt by James Monroe.
And here we cannot avoid expressing
some surprise at the statement made
by some ot tiui > eminent orators, and
published Without correction by the
editors of leading journals, that M
Hayes is the second President who
has visited Georgia. There are gen
gentlemen still living among ns who
received and welcomed Mr. Monroe
when he visited the State. This was
in the year 1819, a period known
the history of the United States as
“ the era of good feeling,” and we
eaunnt hot regret that upon the re
cent reception of and banquet to Mr.
Hayes Iu Atlanta this memorable visit
pf the first ‘‘Pacificator ** was not once
referred to by any. of- fbe many dis
tinguished.speakers-of the Occasion
Among them were Senators and ex
Senators, Governors and ex Govern
ora, judges and ;> ex judges—many
most potent, grave and reveread
seigniors—and it seems to have oc
curred to iioi one of them that
might have been both pleasant End
valuable to have reminded their dis
tinguished guest "of the visit of his
illustrious predecessor, whose aduiin
istration inaugurated that “eraof
good feeling’which is so much need
ed now, and which we hope will
characterise the ^administration-
