Sthmjjutoct Democratic Ticket
for Governor of Georgia :
Tho noble old Roman trfio now so ably fills
that position,
HON: - JAMES MILTON SMITH,
Of Muscogee.
WITHDRAWAL OF MR. DAVIS.
Greeley is not onr candidate; he is
not and never could have been our
choice, even if the choosing had been
from aitiong the Liberal Repsblleans;
but,- under all-tlte circumstance*, we
must acquiesce in the better judg
ment of onr friends of the Democratic
faith, and trast that the election of
Greeley and Brown will be the har
binger of -better days for onr dis
tracted countrj and our oppressed
people of the South. As things tow
stand, whatever may be the objec
tions to Mr. Greeley there is no al
ternative; the choice of the country
is aqd must be between him and his
Radical opponent. In the corrupt
and despotic rule of the latter we
have realized aH the evils of bad
government, while from the former,
whatever may* have been his past
political record, we have pledges
which justify a reasonable hope of
important reforms—among them the
restoration of local self-government.
SONG OF THE BOLTERS.
The following, from the New York
Sun, is very appropriate at the pres
ent time, and its conclusion an apt
illustration of what will become of
all the bolters from the right fold.
the pleasure he has received for
having performed that duty to the
full satisfaction of his countrymen
and his own Conscience, is of itself
no meager reward.
This article is simply designed as
an acknowledgement of the compli
ment bestowed upon Mr. Russell by
his friends, and not as urging his
nomination—though, at the same
time, we are authorized by him to
say that he would unhesitatingly
accept the nomination if tendered
him by the voice of the people.
By reference to a card elsewhere, therefore, insert it in our col-
for rpasons therein stated, Mr. R. j Ul p ngj trusting it will not escape the
XV. Davis announces that he is no
longer an aspirant to Legislative
honors.
We regret exceedingly that he
has seen fit to take this step, for in
so doing he has disappointed the
expectations of a host of his friends,
who would have left nothing undone
to secure his nomination and elec
tion.
Mr. Davis is one of the most pop
ular, talented and deserving- young
men ir. this section, and we hope the
day may come when he will give his
friends a chance to manifest their
confidence by electing him to a place
of public trust.
the Situation.
From reports, far and near, we
are agreeably compelled, to conclude
that Greeley and Brown will be
elected in November. Grant and
"Wilson are making desperate efforts,
though, notwithstanding they have
the government patronage and the
treasufy at their command, their
progress is slow,
The North Carolina election, which
takes place to-day, is looked to with
painful interest by both parties.—
Grant’s henchman, Boutwell, and his
colleague Wilson, have been stump
ing the State in the interest of their
master. Money has flowed from the
U. S. Treasury in torrents, yet it is
supremely doubtful as to whether
that State will go Radical. The
Grceleyitcs arc hopeful.
Senator Schurz delivered the
greatest speech of the campaign at
St. Louis last week, in which he
directly accused Grant of trying to
bribe him in the San Domingo busi
ness. Grant denies, but as Schurz
has the indisputable proof in pos
session, the denial will amount to
very little.
There seems to bo a general up
rising all over the country in favor
of the Liberal movement; and it is
not at all surprising since patriots
of every political party can act to
gether for the* country’s weal in a
crisis wliicti threatens the final sub
version of onr constitutional govern
ment.
GREELEY’S LETTER ACCEPT
ING THE BALTIMORE NOMI
NATION.
Wo publish in to-day’s Democrat
Mr. Greeley’s letter, formally ac
cepting the Democratic nomination.
It is characteristic of the man, able,
modest, dignified and will commaftd
the respect of all parties. The per
fect candor that pervades the spirit
of it is worthily matched by the vigor
of its phraseology. Complimentary
smoothness yields to expressive
thought^ and complacent consent is
supplanted by vigorous opinion. Of
his own-position he speaks frankly;
and his reference to the principles
lie has always maintained is made
practical by their application to the
present condition of the country.—
The conclusion of tho letter is states
manlike. Read it.
SAVANNAH MORNING NEWS.
This able journal in its issue of the
29th ult., gratifies the thousands of
Democrats who are its readers, by
coming over to the support of Gree
ley and Brown.
In an elaborate leader defining its
position, the News takes precisely
the same view expressed by THE
Democrat of the i$th ult.
The article in the News concludes
as follows:..
“If, therefore, we cannot vie with
our more enthusiastic New Depart
ure frfonds in zealously supporting
the Baltimore nominees, yet we can
ami wili do all in our power to de
feat Grant, by holding up to public
consideration and view the measures
and policy of hiacortupt rule.. Mr.

TEN LITTLE BOLTERS.
“Ten little bolters getting into line,
One of them bolted, and then there were
nine. •
Nine little bolters, organized by hate,
Fought among themselves, and then there
were eight
Eight little bolters claimed to be eleven,
One couldn’t see it, and then there were
seven.
Seven little bolters playing silly tricks,
One got disgusted, and then there were six.
Six little bolters getting in a hive,
One got stung, and then there were five,
Five little bolters played a game of “draw."
One got busted, and then there were four.
Four little loiters getting up a tree,
One tumbled over, and then there were
three.
Three little bolters sitting in the dew,
One got the the colic, and then there were
two,
Two little bolters talking very freely,
One got mad and the other went for Greeley.
One little bolter sitting all alone,
Swallowed up his own self, and then there

HORACE GREELEY IN 1867.
We call the special and undivided
attention of every reader of The
Democrat to Horace Greeley’s letter
to the Union League Club in 1867,
which will be found on our first
page.
It is one of the boldest, manliest,
and most independent expressions of
opinion we ever read; and wc be
lieve that no man so fearless in the
cause of right and justice, will ever
make us regret having voted for
him. Read the letter and show it
to yonr friends.
GOV. SMITH’S DEFEAT CER
TAIN (?)
Ttiore is a daily newspaper pub
lished in the city of Macon called
the Enterprise, which for some cause
or other unknown to the people of
Georgia, swears that James M.
Smith shall never be Governor again.
This Enterprise, hardly known
throughout the city of its publication,
got terribly mad because the repre
sentatives of the Democratic party
did not nomhiate James, an Atlanta
banker, in place of Smith, at the
Convention of the 24th ult.
Notwithstanding the fact that
nearly every delegation in the State
went to Atlanta instructed to vote
for Smith—instructed by the people
—the Enterprise says the lawyers
nominated Smith, and calls the body
“the Dried Apple Convention.”
ITere is the way this irate news
paper closed an article on the sub
ject a few days ago. Hear, and let
Democracy quake and tremble:
“One thing is certain': Smith will have
opposition, for “every man in Georgia, from
the mountains to the seaboard, from Dade to
Camden,” is not going to vote for him. And
whoever tUht opposition is, we will givd him
our humble support In a week we will
know who to vote for. In the meantime we
take down the name of James, ready to hoist
it again, if the people not lawtlbs have an
opportunity of making known their choice.
So much for the Dried Apple. Convention
and its superlatively honest candidate.”
THE EDITOR OF THE DEMO
CRAT FOR THE LEGISLA
TURE.
It will be seen by reference to a
communication elsewhere, that the
friends of Mr. Ben. E. Russjp.
have suggested his nomination to
the Democracy of Decatur for Rep
resentative in the Legislature. He
is proud of this mark of the confi
dence reposed in him by his friends,
and should' the Democratic party
view his qualifications in the same
light and designate him a standard-
bearer in the great political struggle
now upon us, we can assure our
readers that he would enter the con
test with np little gratification.
We do not oonsider, however, lhe
claims of Mr. Russell superior to
any other true Democrat in the
party, although he has been fightmg
Radicalism for the past five years.
His course has been his duty, anti
^WHOMTHE GODS WISH TO
DESTROY THEY FIRST MAKE
MAD.”
In view of the North Carolina
election which takes place to-day,
the Grant party of Savannah no
doubt instigated by their friends
throughout Georgia, have been lor
the past few weeks hatching a hell-
conceived plan for the purpose of
making political capital in the elec
tion referred to.
Here was the plan: To force so
cial equality in the Savannah street
cars by instigating negroes to ride
on those vehicles provided exclu
sively for the whites, although the
Savannah Street Railroad Company
have provided cars for the colored
people equal in every respect to
those of the whites
For several days past, have ne
groes been practicing these indigni
ties by forcing themselves into the
white cars, until by their gross and
indecent conduct some of them were
very righteously ejected. This,
then, is followed up by acts of vio
lence and insurrection on the part
of the negroes who fire indiscrimi
nately into the cars from every hid
ing place on the streets. In these
scenes several persons are wounded
Not content with this, the devils
incarnate pass # along by private
houses and in their fury fire at
defenceless families sitting on
their stoops, in one instance wound
ing Mrs. Cohen, a gentleman and
three children; and in another a
Mrs. Baber received two wounds
in the-breast and her little boy aged
about eight years was struck in the
temple, it is feared mortally wound
ing him.
It is but just to the colored peo
pie to say, (so we learn from the
Savannah papers,) that the becter
portion of them took no part in
these high-handed outrages.
This thing was intended to serve
the North Carolina election and it
"doubtless will, as true statemeuts
cannot reach there until after the
damage is done. If there is a de
cent man in the Grant party, we
call upon him in the name of heaven
to stop and reflect; and if there is a
Democrat in the country who has
not yet chosen, we urge him, alter
this, to declare for his country and
Greeley.
[Communicated.]
Political,
Editor Democrat:
In casting about for good men to
represent Decnttu in the ensuing
Slate Legislature, we wonld respect
fully suggest James Bntler, anffE. G.
Bower, as good names, ai least to
place before tbe nominating Commit
tee.
While other gentlemen might be
named, who would doubiess serve
the county with fidelity and capacity,
we can think of none who unite more
fully than the gentlemen mentioned,
all lhe essentiall qualificati ms for good
Representatives. Possessing, as they
certainly do, unquestioned ability and
integrity, with a modesty aud sense of
propriety that will force tbe office to
seek their services, (if they serve at
all) tffey will not, if elected, jeopard
one interest of tbe people for person
al promotion, as is loo often the case
with professional politicians.
And enjoying the full confidence of
the people, and being connected with
no old issues, they would make a good
race.
The above is tbe suggestion of
Mant Citizens.
6th. Resolved, That we are for
Gree.ey and Brown, and are determin
ed to carry Delaware for that ticket,
7th. Resolved, That we recom
mend the bolding of a Grand Mass
County Ratification Meeting at an
early day, to continne day and eve
ning, to ratify the proceedings of tbe
Baltimore Convention.
8tb. Resolved, Tbnt a Greeley
Campaign Club be formed at once to
assist in carrying out tbe above teso-
'ntions.
Pithy Resolutions.
At tbe Greeley and Brown Ratifica
tion meeting at Wilmington, Dela
ware, which was a very large and en
thusiastic gathering, the following
resolntions were proposed and carried
unanimously. They arc models of
brevity and pitb:
1st. Resolved, That we recognize
the fact that there has been a politi
cal deluge.
2nd. Resolved, That we perceive
many of tbe ante-dilnvian landmarks
have been swept away thereby.
3rd. Resolved, That we intend to
take our piftces among the post-dilu-
vians.
4ih. Resolved, That we intend to
forget many things that are old and
learn some things that are new.
5tb. Resolved, That it is evident tbe
present movement is “The People’s”
and that in it they are above and
ahead of tbe politicians and the news
papers.

His Formal Acceptance of the
Democratic Nomination
New York, July 23..—Official noti
fication of Greeley’s nomination at Bat
timure.
Baltimore, July 10, 1872.—To
Hon. Horace Gieeley—Dear Sir: It is
onr pleasure, in Compliance with the
instructions of the Democratic Na
tional Convention assembled in this
city, to inform you that yon have
been unanimously nominated its can
didate for President of tbe United
States. 1 be Convention, consisting of
seven hundred and thirty two dele
gates, representing every State and
Territory in tbe Union, adopted, with
out amendments, the declaration of
principles affirmed by the Conven
tion of Liberal Republicans a< Cincin**
nati, and strengthened by tbe endorse
ment contained in vonr letter of ac
ceptance. The action of this great
body of delegates proves that they
are, with singular unanimity, deter
mined to enter, under your leadership,
upon the patriotic duty of restoring to
the administration of the Government
purity and integrity, and that inde
pendence to its departments which re*
gards the Constitution as alike the
source and lirri't of Federal power.
Laying aside the differences of the
past, abandoning all purpose of mere
partisan advantage, asking for no
pledge, other than ihht of fidelity to
the principles to which they have
given their deliberate and resolute ad
herence, and which they believe will
command the approval of a large ma-
joriiy of the American people, they
tender you their nomination, confi
dent that peace and good government
will be inaugurated and maintained
under you' administration.
Respectfully yours obediently.

mr. greeley's repi.t.
New York, July 18, 1872.—Gen
tlemen: Upon rnntuic deliberation it
seems fit that I should give to your
letter of tbe 10th instant some further
and fuller response than the hasty,
unpremeditated words in which I ac
knowledged and aceepted your nomi
nation at our meeting on the I2ih.
That your convention saw fit to ac
cord its highest honor to one wln>
had been prominently, pointedly, op
posed to your party in the earnest and
angry controversies of the last forty
year*, and essentially noteworthy
that many of yi u originally preferred
that the ‘Libei al Repnhlscans should
present another candidate for Presi
dent, and would more readily have
united with us iu 'he support of Ad-
arta? or Trumbu'l, Davis or Brown.
It is well known that I owe mv adop
tion at Baltimore wholly to the fact
that I had already been nominated at
Cincinnati, and that a concentration
offeces upon any new ticket hail
been proved impracticable. Gratified
as I am at your concurrence in the
Cincinnati nominations, ceitain as I
am lEat you would not have thus con
curred, had you not deemed me
upright and capable, I find nothing in
the circumstances calculated to in*
flame vanity or nourish self conceit.
But that your convention saw fit in
adopting the Cincinnati ticket, to re
affirm the Cincinnati platform, is to
me a source of the profoundest satis
faction. That body was constrained
ftj take this important step by no
party necessity, real or supposed. It
might have accepted the candidates of
the Liberal Republicans npon ground*
entirely its own, or it might, have pre
sented them as the first Whig Nation
al Convention did Harrison and Tyler,
without adopting any platform what
ever.
That it chose to plant itself deliber
ately-, bv a vote nearly unanimous,
npon the fullest and clearest enuncia
tion of the principles which are at
once incontestably Republican and em
phatically Democratic, gives trust
worthy assutance that a new and more
auspicious era is dawning npon our
long distracted country. Some ot the
best years and best efforts of mv life
were devoted to a struggle against
chattel slavery, a struggle none the
less earnest or arduons because -re
spect for constitutional obligations
constrained me to act for the most
part on the defensive at a distance.
Throughout most of those years mv
vision was cheered, mv exerions were
rarely animated by even so much as a
hope that 1 should live to see my conn-
try peopled by freemen alone. Tbe
affirmance by yonr Convention of the
Cincinnati plat’orm is a most conclu
sive proof that not merely is slavery
abolished, but that its spirit is ex
tinct; that despite the pro.estrf of a re
spectable but isolated few, there re
mains among us no party and no form
idable interests which regrets the over
throw or desires the establishment of
human t<ifuJ»ge whether in le'ter or in
spirit. T am ther-fore^siified in mv
hope and '.rust, that the first century
of American independence wifi no;
close before the grand tl-inen'al truth
on which its rgh'fufness was based bv
Jefferson and the Continental Con
gress of '76 will no longer he regarded
as glittering generalities, bat will have
become the universally accepted and
honored foundation of our political
fabric. I demand the prompt applica
tion of those principle! to our exis
ting condition. Having done wbat- 1
could for the complete emancipation
of he blacks, I now insist on the full
enfranchisement of all my white coutt
try men. Let no one say the bar ha
just been removed from all but. a few
hundred elderly gentlemen, to whom
eligibility to office can he of little con--
sequence. My view con; emplaies not
the hundred proscribed, but the mil
lion who are denied the right ip be
ruled and represented by men of their
unfettered choice.
Proscription were nhsnrd if these
did not wish to elect they vety men
whom they are forbidden to choose.
I have a profound regard for the
people of that New England wherein
I was horn—in whose common schools
F was tanglit. I rank no other peo
ple above ih*ern in intelligence, capaci
ty and moral wo.th. But while they
do many things well and some admir
ably, there is one thing which 1 am
sine they can’t wisely or safely, and
ihat is the selection for States remote
from and unlike their own of the per
sons by whom these Scales shall be
represented in Congress. If they coahl
do this to good purpose, then republi
can institutions were unfit and aristoc
racy the only true political system.
Yet, what have we recently witnessed?
Zehuion 11. Vance, the unquestioned
choice of a large majority ol the pres
ent Legislature of North Carolina—a
majority hacked by a majority of the
people who voted at his election—re
fused the seat in the Fedeial Senate to
which he was fairly chosen, and the
Legislature thus constrained to choose
another in his stead or le: ve the Stale
unrepresented for years. The voles of
New England thus deprived North
Carolina of the Senator of her choice,
and compelled her to send another in
his stead—another who, in our late
contest, was like Vance, a n-bf-l, and a
fighting rebel, but who had not- server,
in Congress before the war, as Vance
had, though the latter remained faith
ful to the Union till after the close of
his term. I piotest wgarnst the dis
franchisement of a State, presninpti"e-
ly of 'a number of Siates, on grounds
so narrow and technical as this.
The fact that the same Senate which
refused Vance his seat proceeded to
remove the disutilities, aftei that sea'
had been filled by another, only serves
to place in the strongest light the in
dignity to North Carolina, and flie ar
bitrary, capricious tyranny which dic
tated ii. I thank voo,gentlemen.that my
name is to be conspicuously associated
wi.hyonrs in an effort, to render am
nesty complete and universal in spirit
as well as in le'ter. A defeat in such
a cause would leave no sling, while
triumph would rank it with those vic
tories which no blood reddens, and
which evoke no tears but those of grat
itude and jov.. Golub men, vonr plat
form wbiiMi, is also mine, assures me
that Democracy is not hencrfoitil to
s : and for one tiling and Republicanism
for another, hut tlmt those terms are
io mean in politics, as they have al
ways meant in die dictionary, substan
tially one and the same thing,namely,
equal rights, regardless of creed or
clime or color. I hail this as a genu
ine new departure from on worn fends
and meaningless contentions in the fin
rec.tion of progress and reform. Whe
ther 1 shall be found wot thy to bear
the standard of the great Liberal
movement which the American people
Imve inaugurated is to be determined
not by words but by deeds. With me,

BOOK NOTICES-
A compendium of the history of the
United States, by Hon. Alexander H. Ste
phens, of Georgia. E. J. Hide & -on, Pub
lishers. 17 Murry Street, New York.
The above is the title of book to be issued
this week, which is destined io create a sen
sation. Its author is a statesman, who,
having been identified with the historj of
onr country for nearly two generations,
brings to his task an experience such as is
possessed by few of tbe writers of the age,
and who treats his subject in a manner at
once fascinating and instructive. The book
should be in every school-room, and in
library in the United States. It is the His
tory of the country, its unmaimed body,
and its pervading spirit; Fade J/acum to
both student and statesman; a necessity to
avery one who wishes to know wbat has
been done, and why it h'ns been done, by
those who made, and those who have ad
ministered the government ot these States;
to every school-room, that the young may
learn the true principles of the government
which was instituted by their forefathers,
and grow up constituents worthy of good
representatives. So educate the young, and
there will be a reasonable prospect of real
reform iu the administration of their govern
ment.
The volume—12mo., 513 pages, with nu
merous illustrations—is beautifully printed,
and tastefully and strongly bound. Price,
$1 50. If not to be had at tbe local book
stores, tbe publishers will send it by mail,
post-paid, on receipt of the price.
