Very true. Senator Gordon’s

Commenting on General Grant's
Galveston speech, and alluding es
pecially to his sage remark that iu
European countries “with their dense
populations and their worn out soils,
it takes a great deal of govern¬
ment to enable the people to get
from the soil a bare subsistence—
here we have a rich virgin soil, with
room enough for us all to expand
and live with the use of very little
government. The Baltimore Sun
says: “This idea of looking upon
government aas sort of fertilizer like,
guaoo or phosphate ot lime, is a netv
one. but it verifies the claim of the
ex-Presiden’t friends that his foreign
tour has taught him some things.
When he went abroad General Grant
seemed to thiok that Louisiana, with
its virginFoil and scant population,
needed much more government than
Massachusetts, with its dense inhad
itancy and barren acres.”
. The Call, for an Anti-Third
Term Convention. —.The Republi¬
can Anti-Third Term Committee of
St. Loui3 has adopted a call for a
national mass convention, to meet
in St* Louis, May 6, to tho end
that national organization may be
perfected, through which a proper
expression of tfie will of the people
against the principle of tho third
Presidential term may be secured,
with a view of limiting, by consti
tutitmal amendment, the executive
tenure. The call recites the patri¬
otic precedent of Washington and
his successors, and the declaration
of Jefferson that “if some termina¬
tion to the services of the Chief
Magistrate be not fixed by the Con¬
stitution or supplied by practice,
his office, nominally for years, will
to fa,ct become for life.” It cordial¬
ly approves the declarations of the
Pennsylvania State republican Con¬
vention in 1875, and also of that of
New York, against a third term,
and deprecates the evident purpose
of a faction of the Republican par¬
ty to seeure the re-election of Gen.
Grant, thereby endangering the
success of the party, aud threaten¬
ing to subvert policies hitherto re¬
garded as the safeguards of our iu
eti tutions.
THE DEMOCRATIC EXECUTIVE
COMMITTEE
Met pursuant to call, in Atlanta,
on Tuesday last. After the usual
routine of-business the following
resolution was adopted,
Resolved, That the committee is,
sue a call for two conventions of
the Democrats of tho State to bo
held m Atlanta on the 9tli of June
and August 4th. The first, for the
purpose the of selecting delegates to
Cincinnati convention—tho sec
ohd for the purpose of appointing
elftptors and nominating candidates
for governor and for state-house
officers. *"
Considerable discussion was had
in regard to giving sufficient pub¬
licity to the call and securing a full
and free expression and choice iu
delegates on tho part cf the
masses.
Hon. H. P. Bell offered the fol¬
lowing resolutions :
Resolved, That the people of
Georgia, iu selecting their dele¬
gates to said conventions, are here
by -earnestly requested to adopt
such methods, satisfactory to them
selves, as will insure a full, free
and fair expression of the popular
choice in selecting delegates and
candidates. The committee recom¬
mend that meetings to appoint Rel¬
egates to the first convention meet
on the first Tuesday in J une next,
and the meetings to appoint dele., be
gates to the second convention
held on Wednesday, the 21st day
of July, and in each case that the
most extensive notice practicable
be given.
Whereas, The national democrat¬
ic convention at St. Louis in 1876
referred the question of adopting
the majority or two thirds rule by
the national democratic nominaiing
conventions to the democracy of
the several states.
Resolved, That the people held in
their primary assemblies, to
appoint delegates to the first con
vention herein called, be, and they
are hereby, requested question. to express
their views upon this
II. P. Bel) favored the plan
submitting the two-thirds role, to
the people.
Marshall Hatcher
destroying of any old landmarks,
and jricv*®*3 to lay the resolutions
on the table. On the motion there
were 7 yeas and’ 7 nays, and the
chairman voted nay, thus defeating
the motion to lay on the table.
J. J. Jones suggested that the
question be left to the first conven¬
tion, and that there be no effort to
settle it in primary meetings.
J. W. Warren said he did not
think the resolution practicable,
and hoped the question, would be
left as it now is.
W. T. Trammell said the commit¬
tee was suggesting too many things.
Marshall Hatcher said the com¬
mittee was trying to do too much.
He said it was dangerous to tam
per too much with the party.
Mr. Camp said this was the best
time to settle tho question of two
thirds or majority rule as the poli¬
cy of the party.
II. P. Bell said bo regretted the
discussion on this resolution. The
two thirds rule had caused much
difficulty iu the democratic nation¬
al conventions. It caused such
troubles in St. Louis in ’76 that the
convention asked that the party in
the various states should express
its views on the question so as to
govern the next national democrat¬
ic convention.
J. M. Pace thought it best to
preface the resolution with a state ¬
ment that the decision of tho peo¬
ple on the two-thirds rule was to
apply only to the national conven¬
tion and to the nomination of
presidential candidates.
The resolutions offered by Mr.
Bell were then adopted without
opposition.
Mr. John H. Martin, proxy for
Hon. Mark Blandford, of the fourth
district, offered the following reso¬
lutions :
Resolved, That this committee,
having in its deliberations and ac¬
tion, ignored all personal interest
and all previous estrangements and
divisions among democrats, earnest¬
ly calls upon the whole party
throughout the state to do likewise,
overlooking or casting their behind them
the bitterness of late contests
with one another and uniting once
more against the common antago¬
nist of their principles and their
policy. Resolved, That for the
promo¬
tion of this end all democrats in
principle are urged to participate primary
on an equal footing in the
meetings for the selection of dele¬
gates thereto.
Mr. Martin said he hoped the
resolutions would bo adopted as a
means of reconciling the divisions
of the democratic party in the
state. He had accepted a place as
a proxy to carry out this end as far
as he could.
The resolutions offered by Mr.
Martin were read seriatim and
adopted without opposition.
The convention having no fur¬
ther business adjourned to meet at
10 o'clock pu the 9th of Juno.
AH the democratic papers in the
state were requested to publish the
proceedings.

THE PEOPLE AND THE SUPREME
COURT.
One of the most serious issues
dependent on the result of the next
Presidential campaign, truly re¬
marks the Baltimore Gazette, is
the reconstruction of the Supreme
Court. In all probability, Judges'll three,
perhaps four, new that
court will ha we to be appointed by
the next President Should the
latter be a Republican, we may ex¬
pect the present partisan character
of the court to bo sustained by the
appointment of stalwart politicians.,
Should he be a Democrat, as we be
lieve and fervently trust he will,
the composition of the court will
bo rendered as nearly non-partisan
as is possible under the present
system of appointment. Thomas
Jefferson once asserted that when
ever the Supreme Court came to be
controlled by a bigoted partisan
majority it would be transformed
from the chosen guardian of popu¬
lar liberty to its greatest, most dan¬
gerous foe. The wondorful pres
cience of this declaration is con¬
spicuously illustrated in the recent
decisions of that tribunal, which,
as we have already shown, practic¬
ally destroy the autonomy of the
States. To remove this standing
menace to Republican institutions
is one of the duties devolving upon
the Democracy in the next cam¬
paign. The issue is so momentous
that all clamor within the party
should be immediately hushed.
Those leaders who persist in wrang¬
ling over the “claims" of individu¬
als, to the jeopardy of the popular
rights involved in this issue, are
not worthy the name of Democrats.
Comptroller General’s Report.
We are in receipt of Comptroller
General Wright’s report for the fiss
cal year ending Oot., 1st, 1879.—
The report can be seen on our Li¬
brary table, and is full and compre¬
hensive. From a. summary of the
same, by the Augusta Chronicle,
we make th9 following interesting
extracts:
' The table showing the polls of
white and of colored, professions,
ect., for 1878 and 1879, shows for
the latter year, 130,175 white polls,
an increase of 3,190 ; and 88,522
colored polls, an increase of 771.—
There are returned 5,348 polls in
default, white and colored, being
an increase of 948. There are l,s
292 lawyers, a decrease of 6 ; 1,638
doctors, an increase of 10. The
Treasurer's account with the State
of Georgia shows receipts, $2,243,,-
580.22, and balance in Treasury
after disbursements, $930,908.62.
The summary of expenses of
General Assembly’s session held in
November and December, 1878 i
shows an aggregate of $48,672.23.
Of the bonded indebtedness of
State we find that $150,000 fall
in February, 1880; $50,000 in
gust, 18S0 • $100,000 in Apiil,
—making an aggregate of
falling due this year, in principal;
$639,135 in interest will also
paief out—total, interest and
cipal, $976,135.
The aggregate value of railroad
property in the State is $9,366,126,
on which $93,559.54 is due in tax¬
es. The Central and Southwestern
are now being sued by the State
for tax on property, having made
no return ou same, they claiming
exemption by charter, and pay in¬
come tax. State Road lessees-pay
tax on net iucome, in addition to
the monthly ".rental. Georgia Rail¬
road and Banking Company pay on
property not covered by charter
exemption is $4,156,000 and pay
also on net income.
The wealth and strength of the
five largest counties are shown by
the following figures : Average val¬
ue of improved land in 1879—Bibb,
$7.82; Chatham, $8.85 ; Fulton,
$12.02; Muscogee, $6.07; Rich¬
mond, 27.03- The average value
of land for 1878, $2.85 per acre.—

“The means by which tie ctwffce
ol the people was defeated by -fraud,
a man nof elected wasp installed
m the office of prctddtM of thr
United States, form a chapter of.pur
history which succeeding ^-Deration
will read with.shsir.e, even if our bi¬
stitutions should so Tar survive the
shock as to leave to posterity uo
graver sorrow than a hlujb fur the
crime. Sir, it was a dark day in
our history that witnessed live oath
of office administered to Rutherford
B. Haves. His inauguration, under
the circumstances, waa the Severest
test to which the patriotism and
forebearance of a free people could
be subjected. A large majority of
the people had oast their fbtes fbr
Mr. Tilden, yet they stood peaceful¬
ly by and saw a man whom they
knew to have been defeated (installed
by fraud iu the high office which
had never been filled before by any
one who did not owe his elevation
to tlie suffrages of his countrymen.
President Grant declared that no
man could afford to ooenpy the
Presidential chair by a title tainted
with the suspicion of fraud, but we
have had the mortification, as a
people, of beholding that proud po¬
sition occupied by one whose title is
not tainted simply with ^suspicion
of fraud, but is fraudulent from cen¬
tre to circumference, iu the honest
belief and conscientjous conviction
of a large majority of the American
people. This was not a mere tri¬
umph of the Republican over the
Democratic party; it was a' triumph
of wrong over right, of fraud' over
the expressed will of the people. It
was Dot only the inauguration of a
Republican President, but it was the
installation of fraud, with all the
pompous sanctions of law, in that
high place, which had never been
stained by fraud b fore. (Jur insti¬
tutions have felt the rude shock of
parties in their embittered struggles
for power. They have even felt
the clash oharms-'andIive4, but bow
long they can survive a de-truetiou
of the confidence of the people ia the
arbitrament of the ballot box remains
to ho seen."

The World for 1880.
Democrats everywhere should in¬
form themselves carefully alike ol
the action of their party throughout
the country and of the movements
ot their Republican opponents. A
failure to do this in 1876 cootribut
ed greatly to the loss by the Democ¬
racy of the fruits of the victory
fairly won at tin- polls.
Tho year 1880 promises to be
one of the most interesting and im¬
portant years of .this country. It
will witness a Presidentian election
which may result iu le-estabiishing
the Government of this country on
the principle*, of its constitutional
founders, or ia permanently chang¬
ing the relations of the States to
the Federal power- No intelligent
man indifference. can regard such an election
with The World, as
the only daily English paper pub¬
lished in the city of New York
which upholds the dostrines of con¬
stitutional the Democracy, Conservative will steadily
represent conten¬
tion in this great canvats. It will
do this in no spirit of servile parti¬
sanship, but temperately and firmly.
It will be as swift to rebuke what it
regards as infidelity to Democratic
principles or to flic honorable laws
of political conflict on (he part
iyslLo-. It will uphold, no

ure it can niafee of each - clay’s pass
ing history in the city, the State,
t h e country and the world. Its
correspondents in the chief of life
and action on both sides of the
ocean have been selected for their
character not less than there capaei*
ty. It will aim hereafter, as lierUo
fore, at accuracy first of all things
in all that it publishes. No man,
however humble, shall ever bo per¬
mitted truly to complain that he has
been unjustly dealt with in tho col¬
umns of TiieWortd. No interest,
however powerful, shall ever be
permitted truly to boast that it can
silence the fair criticisms of The
World. - u.
During the past year The Wo linn
has seen its daily circulation trebled
and its weekly circulation pushed
far beyond that of any other week¬
ly newspaper in the country. This
great increase has been won, as The
World believe", by tiuth fulness,
enterprise, ceaseless activity iu col¬
lecting itselt news and unfaltering loyalty
to and to its readers in deal¬
ing with the questions of the day.
It is.oiu- hope and it will be our cu
doavor that these may keep what
these have won, aDd that The
World’s record for 1880 may he
written in the approbation and the
sopport of many thousands more
of new readers in all parts of this
Indissoluble Union of Indestructi¬
ble States.
