JOHNSON FOK GOVERNOR.
Since the suggestion of the TI n.
H. V. Johnson for Governor in The
Expkess, his name in that connec
tion ia receiving considerable atten
tion. Expressions of approbation
are coining to us from various quin -
tera. and the subject is being discuss
etTovcr the State. The following is
from a Bartow man; an old lime
whig, and formerly a prominent
journalist:
To t/ui Editor of the Express :
The time has arrived when there should !>•
a geiier.il i xpression on the part of the peoph
in regard to the gubernatorial canvass. There
is but one voice in this part of Georgia, mi ft
a*, I know, and that is for Ex-Guv. Johnson—
a man who, by Ida untiring exertion for th*
good aud prosperity of his country, has ewt
been foremost in looking to llie welfare am
happiness of his State and people. We ther* -
lore, as citizens of North Georgia, do reeoni
iuetui t itu for the first office in the gif! of th
people. BakTOW.
ihe Atlanta Constitution , after
stating that Gov. Johnson was r
candidate on Saturday last,ill its isstb
of Sunday says:
From our Information we do not believe
tlmi G‘*v J.ihnson is now or will l>e candi
date for Governor The effort to drag him in
to the canvass will utterly tail, if we are no!
very greatly misinformed. Before we th: k
orhei wise, we shall have to near horn Mr.
Johnson directly.”
Mr. Johnson has not said he would
not be a candidate. The most he has
said, in our oppinion.is that he would
not l>e an aspirant for the nomination
and would,in no event, enter a scram
ble for the office. But Mr. Johnson is a
patriot, and feels it bis “duty to la
bor wherever he can do the most
good,” whenever the people demand
his services. There is being “no
effort to drag him into the-canvass.”
There is a purpose in this expression
” *— ——ordinary intelli
gence can understand, vt **- -
enough known that Mr. Johnson has
not desired to be Governor, being
very well satisfied with his present
position. But the movement being
made for his nomination is on tin
part of a number of unflueutial men
who are not office seekers, but a e
looking solely to the public good,
the preservation of the Democratic
party, and to save it from a disgrace
ful scramble. In an emergency of
thissort Mr. Johnson could not re
fuse to accept the nomination if the
their standard-bearer. It is a ques
tion of great moment to the State
and people, while it may be a sacri
fice to Mr Johnson, and, therefore,
Mr. Johnson will accept the nomina
tion if tendered will < ut ids Htkii ;
An Atlanta dispatch to the Sevan
rah News, under date of the 24th,
says:
Report says that Gov. H. V. Johnson his
written to a friend here, stating po-i.iv*l<
th.the will accept the nomination for Gover
nor should it be tendered him. This create
great, excitement in p.diticial circles, do
ntclishos th- plans of some of the candidates.
1 here will, indeed, be music in :he air very
soon.
We hope this is true, ami while it
is true it may be assured that Mr
Johnson will do nothing' more than
this to seeure the nomination.
A few words in reply to the fol
lowing from the Rome Courier:
The Cart crsville Express is zealous in its
advocacy of il->u. Iler-alnl V. Jolm.oa tb
Governor. We endoise every wont tin* editor
su> Biu commendation (that pure and in.-or
ruptible patriot, ilersctiel V. John-on; hnr
when he seek;, toelev ite him hr abusing- nov
Smith whoisequnlij |tee anti patriotic, we
mutt think til .t ne i- carrt iiijt hi- zeal too tar.
Much silly twaddle * the "thinl term” and
•’Georgia < ai-nri-m” is uuworthy the intelli
geoueot brother W iilinghani, who is usual!*
so fair-minded and liberal in his ..rgmnei.ts.
It is clap-trap, and we are surprised that nr
should n-e it The same silly argument cau tie
applied to Gov. Johnson, but no lair-minded
man would think of using it.
We tire glad brother Sawyer agrees
with us in his estimation,“of that pure
and incorruptible patriot, Hersehel
V. Johnson.” But we dissent, how
ever, from the charge of “abusing
Governor Smith.” This we have
not , done. Gov. Smith has cer
tainly tilled a portion of a first term,
and is completing a second term. If
he should he Governor again he
would certainly fill two full terms
consecutively, and a part of another.
We emnrd lxw Grant fur atll-h as-
piration, and then endorse the prin
ciples in the remotest degree for Gov.
Smith. We think it about time for
a change. At some future time we
may be for Smith again.
Well, as to “Georgia Ceesarism,”
we have little to say. Col. Sawyer
well understands that the Constitu
tion and laws of Georgia place into
the Governor’s hands hundreds of
appointments throughout the State.
Does Col. Sawyer for a moment be
lieve that (he appointees are ungrate
ful? And if not, will they not nat
urally labor to perpetuate their
friend in office? And is not their
influence a grip upon the people of
the State especially in these hard
times, that any aspiring Caesar may
covet, though he may not attempt
to use it by any personal appeal.
Col. Sawyer knows something of
the straightened condition of tne late
Atlanta Herald. He also knows
Col Peter W. Alexander, and that
he is most intimately and officially
coimei-ted with his Excellency. The
proprietors of the Herald sU=.te that
before the Herald went up and out
of sight,they had in their “possession
a written document, in the hand
writing of W. P. Alexander, private
secretary to Gov. Smith,” in which
that gentleman used the following
language:
••Is the Her ad surrounded by difficulties * fi
it aTn |iMu livt mmn l*n*t the with*
t? r r! s in t be f/erult/'*
' It to, '}"■ JUraWe tr ue rr-.-inu.-. ii &l
--iVwv-i will uiJMtiy it bn, vj-.'’
Aud doefi Uc/h Sawyer Ruuw thi
little about Atlanta journalism and
politic-; as not to know the meaning
of burying the ‘skeleton’ forever.”
Now we are surprised that the‘"in
telligence” of brother Sawyer “us
ually so fair-minded and liberal,”
does not permit him to see the drift
of circumstances; that he doesn’t put
this thing and that together and
understand what is going on better
than he does. Does he know exactly
how the Couturier was finally suspend
ed ? And does he know how the
thing was “did” ?
Now, we are making no war
upon Governor Smith, or “any other
man” who may think himself tin*
proper candidate for Governor. We
do know there is too bitter an oppo
sition to Gov. Smith for him to har
monize the Democracy, and prevent
au independent candidate, and pos-sl
-4y the election of a Republican Gov
ernor; and yet Gov. Smith, in our
opinion, is the strongest man of the
long standing candidates in the field.
We are for Gov. Johnson for the
sake of the Democratic harmony,
oecau-e everybody “endorses every
vvord”said of him as a “pure and in
corruptible patriot,” and that the
people would rally to him as one
;nan. That, Sawyer,is
• four desire to see 11. V. Johnson
is t he Democratic candidate for Guv
nor.
GEN. V. M. li. YOUNG AGAIN.
In our last issue we gave a state
ment of the connection of Gen. Young
.villi Boss Shepherd and others m
tie purchase of some real estate in
Aiishington City. That statement
Wiis a simple array of facts as they
etunily occurred as given us by Gen.
Yoiftig himself, and clearly vindi
cated him from the charge that lie
vvns an operator or partner in the
•eat estate pool at Washington. The
Rome Conner, of Tuesday last, made
.he following unjust and ili advised
tunment ou the matter:
Wo regret to see the name of our riistinguish
d ex-representative, Gen. P M. Ii Young, in
uch close aii'l damaging ussoe-ation wi*h the
iiur thieves of Washington. The explanation
,ii The Cahieksvili.e Express does not help
him out of the scrape. We fear that he is too
deep in the infamous pool ever to lie dragged
•at alive. That salary grab was a millstone
that sunk liim to the bottom.
If the Courier had been fair and
disposed to treat Gen. Young fairly
in this mailer, it would have done sis
its Commercial neighbor did—it would
have given the statement from The
Express. But this it did not do,
hot chose to criticise the General in
he above seven- tmtttow. r, ; 0 |> .x y| |
v probable that the Courier is any
better advised of Gen. Young’s con
nection with the pool than we are.
Indeed, no testimony has been given
to fix a stigma upon his character,
and we most heartily protest againsl
the unfai r uess of the above para
graph, and that, too, when it is in
tended, or the effect of it is, to dam
age the good name of a gentleman
who has labored so earnestly anti 30
laboriously to serve his people as
(run Ymini/ hu* (l.m
We have no disposition to unite
with Radicalism in attempts to
blacken the fame of Southern gentle
men in order to make Radical
shame the less conspicuous; and we
regret to see the Courier indulging in
such ad captundum paragraphs as tin
above, with no evidence, so far ns
lias been made known, to give it evert
the stamp of eredibieriess. It is easy
enough to sully a man’s reputation,
but it is difficult to erase the stain
when made by the friends of our own
Imu-ehoid. No journal in Georgia
is more ready to condemn corruption
in high and low places than The
Express, but it will never take the
evidence of Radical scoundrels as a
basis upon which to rest such con
demnation. The above paragraph
is certainly very indiscreet, to say
nothing of its great injuslicetoa gon
ileman who is recognized all over the
South, in the the language of the
Rome Commercial, as “a noble sol
dier and chivalrous gentleman, and
one who has. in ail stations, served
his people faithfully andjeffieientiy.”
“That salary grab” is an exploded
epithet so far as it refers to General
Young. The circumstances and con
ditions which induced Gen. Young
to vote for that measure are so well
known among all intelligent men
that we have no reply to make to it.
They* abundantly refute all dishonest
or selfish motives upon his part.
When such men as Gordon, Nor
wood, Stephens and other good men
sustain that vote, Gen. Young can
very well allow such comment to j
pass unnoticed. Asa naked ques
tion, Gen. Young refused to vote for
the so-called “salary* grab;” and it
was not until he was appealed to by
Gen. Gordon did he consent to vote
for the appropriation bill, in which
forty millions of Southern cotton
money was involved, and which was
a compromise forced upon Southern
members to sustain the bill with the
“salary* grab” included. Now Jet ;
the Courier howl at Gordon, Nor- |
wood and other Democrats.
A correspondent of the Atlanta
Constitution suggests a very good
ticket for delegates at large from
this State to the St. L >uis National
Democratic Convention. The names
are Hon. Charles J. Jenkins of Rich
mond, Gen. Henry R. Jackson of
Chatham, Hon. Clifford Anderson of
Bibb and Gen. Wm. T. Wofford of
Bartow. For the alternates, the
names are: Hon. Jos. B. Camming
of Richmond, Hon. Nelson Tift of
Dougherty, Hon. 4>tniel Irwin of
Cobb, and Col. John B. Estes of Hall
We publish this week on the first
page of The Express iher speech of
Hon. W. H. Felton, delivered in
Congress on the loth inst. His ani

KING HANZ.
Mr. Henry W. Grady is now con
nected with the Augusta Constitu
tionalist as a regular correspondent
with headquarters in Atlanta. He,
however, has a roving commission,
under authority of which he wilt
write from different points. Grady
writes well. He can put on a sub
ject all the gossamer drapery or foam
that any other nan can. His pow
ers of description are great and hi
imagination is as gnat as his descrip
tive powers are. He is just the man
to do the fancy writing or furnish tin
light literature of a daily newspaper.
He is the effervescence of Georgia
journalism, the sparkling genius tha
shoots up between the sherry and
the champaign. He is to nevvspa
perdora what the foam that caps th<
mug is to lager bier, and it is jwior
bier that doesn’t foam.
Grady struck his peculiar talent a
“King Hanz,” Under that nom <]*■
plume he made more reputation in a
single year than he has made in four
years of journalism, in the duties o
which he has been an orbit, dashing
through space without purpose or
destiny. He is now in his true po
sition —in a sphere where his pecu
liar genius may frolic and sport at
willjshooiing iikea meteor from point
to point, attracting the attention am*
interest of his readers, h< filing them
spell bound with the imagery of in
most weird and fanciful mind.
THF ATLANTA CONSTITUTION.
Sunday’s Atlanta Constitution re
produces the following extract from
its issue of August 4, 1872:
“C<> ■ re-pondc"ti an- crowding u with cam
inu: ba:i.. f**r ami :<-:•ni the least*. We
have m> space to spa e !'■>• Die-e di-eu—ion*
g*i*iii.mi-ly. VVi- -bail gke all subjects that

interest. If others wish to di-cuss iheut, they
e. ll do so, but they uni t pay fr it at our
regular rates. * * * We -hall strictly en
force this rule.”
This places the Constitution in a
much more favorable light in regard
to the publication of the State road
lease matter. We repeat, the great
mistake of journals in publishing
“paid for” matter is in not so desig
nating if. The above quotation re
lieves the Constitution , we think, of
the odium attached to the charge
made against it, and we are glad to
give it the benefit of circulation in
our columns.
Honesty and candor compel us to
say that the above quoted paragraph
entirely re'Tves the Constitution of
the change of imposition upon its
readers in the publication of ihe
State road lease matter. If a public
" ’ Aiouaiilcuously made,
doesn’t amount to an open imnm.)
business, then we do not know what
would.
We repeat, we are glad to give
the Constitution the benefit of this
statement.

The Griffin News thinks “Judge
A. M. Speer would be the peer in
point of talent and character of any
representative Georgia now has or is
likely* to have in Congress.” But,
then Col. Speer, as that paper would
say of Mr. 11. V. Johnson, is “an -id
politiean,” and has “been serenely
reposing in his politicia! coffin for
many years.” “It is hard on a man
who has retired to he thus rudely

The editor who expects to.be ir de
pendent and true to the cause of
right and justice can listen to the
views of any one man. He can not
mould his opinions upon any just
basis except that of his own con
clusions after searching for the truth.
The duty of the true editor is to en

and men and between all classes ol
men.
Col. James D. Waddell, who visit

he lias been any time this year. He
