The Proposition of Atlanta.
[From the Atlanta Constitution.]
The enemies of Atlanta are con
tinually asserting that the propo
silion of Atlanta is not before the
people. We give the action of
the City Council on the subject,
and also the action of tho Con
vention authorizing tho city of
Atlanta to make the offer. There
is nothing in the way. If the
capitol is located at Atlanta, it
Will cost the State nothing, but
sho can sell the two eapit’ols she!
now has, and put the money in
the treasury. If it is carried to
Milledgeville, it will cost over
one hundred thousand dollars to
fix np the old building and pay
lor the removal—besides thal, the
State will lose tho building in this
city as it revorts if the capitol is l
removed. It is not only tho in
terest.of the tax payer to keep
the capitol in Atlanta, but it is
far moro convenient and desira
ble to every citizen of tho State,
oxcept those who are personally
interested in its removal.
Here 16 wbat Atlanta proposes
fo do:
City Clkhe’s Omen,
Atlanta, September Ift, 1877.

the same was unanimously con
curred in by the aldcnnnnio

proposition to the Convention
was not made in good faith; and,
Whereas, It was made in the
utmost g6od faith,
Resolved, That we do hereby
fepcat tho same, and now declare
that if Atlanta is selected as the
capitol of the Sthle by tho people
in December next, the city ot At
lanta will convey to the State of
Georgia any ten acres of land in
or near tho city now unoccupied,
or the square in the heart of said
city known as tho city hall lot,
containing live acres of land, and
bounded by a street on every
side, on which to locate and build
a capitol for the State.
Resolved further. That the city
of Atlanta will bnild for the State
of Georgia, on the location so-
Pected, a capitol building as good
as the old capitol building in
Milledgeville.
Resolved further that a copy < f
this action 6igned by the mayor
and certified to by the clerk of
council under the seal of his oN
flee, shall be deposited with the
Governor of this Btate and be
published for the information of
the people. N. L. ANaiBR,

Osman Pasha’s History.
... ■ JBs
The Turkish minister to the
United Stales furnishes the fol
lowing- “Osman Pasha began his‘
studies under the care of his:
brother, the late Ilussein Effendi,
professor of Arabic in Hte prepa
ratory school at Constantinople,
whither Osman Pasha came from
Tokat at his brother's suggestion,
and who shortly alter had him
admitted to tho same school.
When sufficiently prepared by
his relative young Usman entered
the iniitfaty school, which, alter
a brillMiit examination, he left
with the rank of lieutenant. In
telligent and laborious, he was
always foremost in his class while
in the military school- His com
mission as Hetenant says that he
came out first in the final exam,
inatior.s. Osman’s entrance to
tho army took place in 1852, and
coincided with the beginning of
the Crimean war. He had scarce
ly donned his uniform when,
with somo of his associates, he
was appointed on the staff and
sent to Shunila. On the battle
field, as welt as at the school-desk,
Osman Effendi was remarked by
his chiefs for his coolness and
military capacities, which began
,to prove so eminent that the rank
of captain., and soon after adju
tant Was conferred upon him.
The campaign over, Osman Pasha
returned to Constantinople and
entered with his rank of captain
into the imperial guard. Before
long he obtained tho rank of com
mandiuu of a lAttnlio of the im
perial guard, with wliiclf lie was
sent to Crete during the insurrec
tion of that island. From the
first to tho last moment he was
present in every movement of
the campaign against the insurg
ents.
"Peace being restorod in Crete
be came back to Constantinople,
this time with the epaulets of col
onel, won after two years of con
stant fighting. During his stay
at tho capitol, Osman Pasha was
connected with various military
duties, and intrusted with sever
al missions, which obtained for
him a promotion to tho grade of
Brigadior-Gencral, and, lastly, an
appointment on tho staff of the
fifth army corps as general of di
vision. In that position, as in the
previous ones, Osman Pasha’s ac
tivity did not relax, and his ser
vices became daily more impor-
taut and valuable. It was at the
time when lie was the rhief of
staif of the fourth army corps that
he was placed in command of the
division at Widdin. After his
gallant conduct before Zeilchar
and in reward for his eminent
services in the war against Ser
bia an irado from the Sultan
raised him to‘the rank of muohir
(Marshal.) Osman Pasha is stili
young. Weil educated and brave,
his victories at Plevna are the re
wards of a life of labor and devo
tion for liis country and bis sov
ereign. His Imperial Majesty,
who fully appreciates him, lias
given him the most flattering ev
idence of his high satisfaction.”
Grant and Sumner.
A Washington letter hes this:
“Some of the remarks attributed
to General Grant *in the conver
sation recently held bv him with
a New York Ilerald representa
tive at Kdingburgh have created
intense excitement here, where
the circumstances of which he
speaks are so well known. Geu
eral Grant is reported to have
said that he look no part in the
displacement of Mr. Sumner from
■the Chairmanship ot the Commit
tee on Foreign Relations. It is
strange that Gen. Grant should
make such a statement us this
when there are Senators now liv
mg whom both he and members
of his Cabinet personal
to take part in the movemeut de
grading Mr. Sumner. There were
pot less than half a dozen Sena
tors who, in private, expressly
excused'themselves lor voting
against Mr. Sumner by stating
that they did so because of their
feluclauce to offend President
Grant. At the same time they
admitted that it was a burning
shame for Mr. Sunnier to be so
treated.”
What Bradley CoDfesset.
It must be admitted that wl:at
he (Bradley) says about his meth
od of arriving at a conclusion on
tiie Florida question is a virtual
confession of his weakness as a
man and incapacity as a Judge.
He says he “wrote and rewrote
the considerations on both sides
as they occurred to me, some
times being inclined to one view
of the Case and sometimes Cos the
other,” but lie does not explain
how it came about that he voted
with tiro Democrats to bear evi
dence on the eligibility of Elector
Humphreys, whose eligibility
was never really doubled, and re
fused to bear it in the case of the
Louisiana electors, whose ineligi
bility was abundantly capable of
proof. Here was an inconsisten
cy which I lie vacillation to which
lie says he wan subject does not
at all explain, for it is impossible
that ho could have honestly be
lieved that the principle of law
was not the same in both cases,
since botli were indentical. Mr.
Bradley, sitting on the Supreme
Bench, would neVer date to com
mit such an absurdity.
The truth of the matter is that
whatever his secret relations to
the Republican conspirators may
have been, Mr. Bradley displayed
from Ihe first, not a desire to get
at the truth, but todiscoyer some
plausible pretext for shutting it
out; and it was the difficulty of
doing this which gave him so
much anxiety. It was because he
found tho arguments of the Dem
ocrats so terribly straight to the
mark that he wavered—that he
“wrote and rewrote the consider
ations.” This was not the vacil
lation of ignorance, but the adroit
ness of partisanship* and it was
this phase of Mr. Bradley’s ac
tion which aroused the indigna
lion of Judge Black, andtf
lie. denounced with
in:; scorn. It is t
ill.' country refuses tnlgj
sill never forgive.-^

the city, only those
get away remaining
Mayor of the city has issued the
following proclamation:
“In view of the tact that many
of our citizens have left our strick
en city, and that therefore the
burden of providing lor the large
number of poor and sick devolves
upon the remaining few, and also
for the reason that medical gen
tlemen present announce it us
their positive belief that the
dread lii I disease in our town will
not be stayed until alter frost, we
reluctantly ask our fellow citi
zens Who may read this call to
modorately aid us in our trouble.
We would ask that corporations,
associations and private individ
uals who desire to extend a help
ing hand may be pleased to noti
fy us of the amount of moneys or
supplies by them collected* and
give us authority to draw upon
them, as our necessities may re
quire.”
Alexander JI. Stephens, in
speaking of the President’s policy
and his reception in the South,
saidi "He has made grand strides
in doing away with the North
and South, and in putting aside
the barriers belweeu the two
sectious and in assuaging the bit
ter feelings engendered by the
war. llis course, so far, receives
my entire support and approba
tion. 1 think Mr. Hayes lias done
for the pacification of the country,
under the doctrine of the home
rule, more than Mr. Tilden could
have done bad he been inaugu
i rated.” Mr. Stephens suggested
that the President, as a further
step toward pacification, appoiut

Gallant Gordon.— Under this
head the Winusboro (S. C.) Her
aid says; “A strong light will
be made over Senator Gordon’s
seal from Georgia this fall. The
gallant Gordon has won a second
term by his patriotic and able re
cord. Especially gratifying would
his re-election be tor the many
South Carolinians who met him
last winter in Columbia during
those tryiug times.”
General Howard says ho is
right on tho heels of the indiaus.
Thero is nothing very eheering
about tins, however. We have

If on. -V. Z. Angicr, Mayor of
Atlanta:
Dear Sib: —Tour letter of en
quiry as to my views on the capi
tal question, teas duly received.
The only objection to Atlanta
that ought to weigii anything in
disinterestedness, to wit: The ex-1
pense of bnilding a new* capital,
having been obviated by tiie pa
triotic offer of Atlanta to giye the
city a lot of five acres or any oth
er ten acres in the city, and erefet
thereon a suitable house for the
Slate, I suppose, and trust no
further struggles will be made on
the subject. Of course, we all
honor our ancient and well be
loved Milledgeville. There is not
a foot square of her red hills over
which I have not wandered in my
youthful days, A little way off,
in Jones,¥B the home of ray
wile; and with one intervening
county, neft by, in old Columbia,
Iw as born, jly first recollections
of her are forever associated with
Jenkins and Andrew J. Milier,

Carolina secession, it was there I
listened to Richard Henry Wilde,
Judge Augustus S. Clayton. Hon.

God-like in oVatory of all men, I

memory of hie graceful and Apol

his eyes flashing eternal fire like
a summer storm-clond, are as
vivid as the hour I saw and heard.
“There were giants in those

But public duty, I sincerely be
