McIntyre, of Thomas, for Congress at the Albany (2d Ilist.) Convention. Col. McIntyre has been “tried by the fire" so to speak, and not found wanting in the least particular. His course in Congress as a Representa tive from the old First District is wort hy of emulation and reflects the highest credit upon him; but we think that W. O. Fleming, of Deca tur, is the man for the approaching contest, yet if Col. McIntyre is nomi nated lie will not find a more ardent supporter throughout the District than Tub Bainbridge Democrat. trio of good fellows never presided over a newspaper establishment. The prospectus of the Ileraid can be fomd in our advertising columns. In Camilla we met several old citizens • of Decatur now residing there, among them D. K. Butler, Major John Pearce and Jas. L. McElveen. Politically Camilla and Mitchell county stand in the very front ranks of the Democracy. No room for scallawags, carpetbagger* and so on, there. The climate is too un healthy for them to thrive. Perhaps they remember the salutary incident of 1868, and considerately stay away. A Mr. Gid Maples i3 out as an in* dependent candidate for the Senate from that Senatorial District, which embraces Decatur and Miller as well as Mitchell county. Some as sert that he will poll a strong vote, while others are confident that “he won’t poll any.” But we shall see. Col. Bolivar Gee and Col. Bacon will be put before the nominating convention by Mitchell county, and if Decatur gives Mitchell the candi date, Mitchell will give Decatur the choice. The convention to nominate dele gates to the Bainbridge Convention meets in Camilla on the 24th inst next Saturday. been fa* better for their history had they* died when the Confederacy went down. It pains as that men will allow thfemseives to be con nected with such black-guanls as Brick Pomeroy & Co. The Grant party is doing aff in its power to foster this movement, for in its success depend, his chances for the Dictatorship of our country. The Had teals will “cheek by jowl” with the ‘ straightoots” and pat them on the back and commend their fealty to principle. Why, an old buzzard named Hampton, and one of the dirtiest radical wretches^that ever polluted the w%lks of civilization, armed the agent of a “straigbout” Democratic newspaper, who was drumming in this city, and whisper ed in his ear—“Go ahead—you are right—I glory in your spunk—be true to principle /” The agent went back home and the paper he repre sented came out for Greeley. In conclusion, we must remark that if there can be found any Dem ocracy in the “straigbtOut” article, we never expect to see it. Tllr, ATLANTIC ANl> GULF. RAIL ROAD. The hill which passed the Senate extending State aid to this road to the amount of $'30,000 per :ni!c was re^ considered, but it has filially passed both Houses allowing $15,000 per mile, and has gone to the. Governor for approval. Mr. Pierce and fifty-seven other members of the House violently op posed this bill and entered a protest against i‘, which stated “that ihe signers were prevented by the motion to lay on the table from giving ex pression to their objections to tile bill, and they respectfully submit that con sidering the net to be in some of its features unconstitutional, and conceiv ing it to be in violation of hitherto wise and well considered policy, this Legislature considering it to be a great stretch of principle of State aid to extend its operations fo another State, and regarding it as extremely unfortunate, that now when the crelit of the Slate is struggling through so many dangers, so many of her bonds should be thrown npon the market, wc therefore earnestly protest against this action, and request that out pro test he entered upon the Journal.” Tbe protest was spread upon the Journal. The sura total of all this opposition may be accounted for more from downright selfishness than any other motive, for the reason that the Atlan tic and Gulf Railroad extends through another portion of the State than theirs. Mr. Bruton, the Senator fiom this District, deserves the thanks of our entire section for bis indefatigable energy in aiding the passage of the bill/' CAMILLA. • Wc spent a part of last Saturday in this flourishing town. Twelve years had elapsed since we saw it before. It is a really live place now —the old *log cabins around the square have been supplanted by neat trained business houses, some of which are commodious. We no ticed many handsome private resi liences. showing the population to be people of taste as well as busi ness. w The town hotel is a large neat building fioA is no doubt a pleasant place tor travellers. A new county jail is being built, an institution,— judging from the old hulk bn the square.— mueh needed. Camilla can, also, boast of a gopd newspa per—it is the Herald, a lively sheet published by K. S. Burtou, ami edi ted by J. W. Townsheud and Dan. P*. Henderson. A better or cleverer IS “STRAIGnTOUT” DEMOC RACY ANY DEMOCRACY AT ALL? The caption of this article is a question that naturally suggests itself to every patriot in the Demo cratic party. We answer the ques tion unhesitatingly in the negative, and shall proceed to give our reasons. These “Straight-outs” profess a su perhuman degree of reverence -for the principles of Jefferson—Jeffer son is their model; but we doubt if onc-tentli of them know anything about that eminent statesman’s prin ciples. We arc not very familiar with Jefferson’s history, but know enough to serve us on. this occasion. We know that he had much in his great character that resembles Horace Greeley. We know that he was in favor of State's rights and express ed his opinions thereon boldly and unequivocally; Horace Greeley has pursued the very same course. As President of the United States Thomas Jefferson would never ap point his own relations to office, saying that he “could find better men for every place than his own connections ” Just such a Presi dent will Horace Greeley be, judg ing from his life-time record. The great Jefferson though a large slave holder, he laboured for the prohibi tion of the slave trade, and of slavery in the territory beyond the Ohio River, and advocated emancipation in Virginia; thus we have in the “Straight-out” Democi^tic model a more thorough abolitionist than Horq.ce Greeley, yet Jefferson wrote the Declaration of Independence. The “Straight-outs” are unceas ingly prating about being “true to principle”—that death *o themselves, destruction to everybody else, and inevitable ruin to the country, is far preferable to the compromise of the Infinetissmal particle of their imagi nary Democratic principle. But really and truly, are these so-called straight-out Democrats ac tuated by principle ? We think tfot. We don’t see how they, can be, when they see just as plainly as the noses on their faces that their course favors the re-election of Grant. They well know that no Democrat forfeits principle by voting for Greeley, but on the other hand they should be aware of the fact that every Demo crat falls far short of true principle who does not vote for Greeley in this crisis. Can the principles of the great Democratic party be ques tioned, when they have proclaimed throughout the length and breadth of the laud, that the salvation of the whole country was their object in endorsing Greeley at Baltimore ? No, never. It was the unqualified action of a patriotic party, regard less of disappointed leaders. The action of" the Democatic party at Baltimore will live in history, and unborn generations will refer to it as one of the most Democratic' moves of the .party of that name, during its grand career irom the time of Jefferson to this.- The leaders in this “straightout” Democratic movement are all very small men who, iD order to purchase a little cheap notoriety, are coming to the tront in the newspapers, with their names coupled with a few such THE DEMOCRACY OF DECATUR IS EXPECTED TO DO ITS DU TY NEXT SATURDAY. Next Saturday, the 24th inst., is the day on which the Democrats of Decatur are to assemble at their re spective court grounds, for the pur pose of electing delegates to the nominating convention which meets in Bainbridge on the first Tuesday in September next. It is, then, highly important that every voter in the party shaH be *at bis post. Don't keep away from these meetings—but go there and select your delegates, men of your choice, who will help to nominate candidates of your liking. If you arc not present and there by allow men to represent you whom you dislike and in whom you have little confidence, the fault will be wholly yours. Remember this. LCt us enter this campaign with a determination worthy of the grand principles we profess—not being Democrats merely in name, tint in word and deed. It is absolutely cs sential for every man to be at bis post cn Saturday. leaders, that they will support a nominee if they were almost certain that It was a party trick. The Demo cratic Convention should nominate cancfttlstes true to the faith, name and principle, but if defeated in the race, we will be consoled by know ing that though the Radicals daim the victory, the offices will be filled by our friends in disguise. •• Simon Pure Democrat.

Mr. McIntyre is the present Rep resentative of the old First District, but the new order of things has. placed him in the 2d.

Mr. McIn tyre has -by his own personal efforts kept that bill from going in force in its present shape, which puts all the money in the pockets of commission merchants, leaving the farmer no better off’ than before.
