NewS is rill right, pf course, "but, according to Its reasoning, there are about 120 newspapers in . Georgia which are “fools’ 1 of the first water. The Columbia EftqhiAr states on .high authority that ex-Provisiomrt Governor James Johnson will hot run for Governor on a Radical or Republican ticket. If lie runs at ail for the position it.will be as an independent candidate. The Augusta Chronicle says Judge Johnson had better make up his mind not to run on any sort of a ticket for Governor of Georgia unless he is anxious to experience the sensation of an encounter with a threshing machine. Os a Republican, Liberal, Independent or Democratic tjeket he will be the worst whipped politician that ever tempted de feat at the ballot box. • t The people lof Polk county do not believe, in newspaper quarrels. The grand Jui*. at its recent session, made the foL lowing report to the Court after returning several indictments. “We also feel it our duty.lo census the course and conduct of our two newspapers toward each other, and urgently request the two editors to cease wrangling about themselves and branch off into agricultural articles, or withers that will tend to develop tho in- tercets and welfare of our country.” A Washington special to the Louisville Courier-Journal says Senator Gordon has prcpaicd a bill in accordance with the policy of liis speech in the Senate a few days ago on the condition of the revenue servics. The bill applies tire system of competitive examination for the appoint ments to the corps of internal revenue of ficer?! and for promotion therein, and says that the appointments shall be non-politi cal. : - 1 Bainbridge wants a museum and to start the thing we suggest that the citi- 7.eus cage ltussell and Johnston, and ex hibit them as South Georgia gorillas cap tured in the jungles of Flint liver.—Fort yalley Mirror. A good, a capital idea, certainly. We would also suggest that the managers of the museum secure Christoper, stick him on the end of a long pole and keep him to scrub up the cage with. We are not surprised that the Savan nah Jietes Shouldn’t like it because a “lit tle country paper” showed up some of its inconsistencies and irregularities, but we do feel a little put out that Harris should show us his teeth in a bad humored way. What’s tho use of a “Board of Honor” if it ain’t to be used ? Say, what’s the use? The March number of the Southern Historical Society papers is spoken of by the Richmond Dispatch as a most impor tant and valuable historical document, being a full vindication of the Coufedrate Government against the charge of cruelty to prisoners. Gen. Gordon is reported as saying he is hopeful of the passage of a bill by Con gress refunding the cotton tax. He thinks the money will be paid directly into the State treasuries and be distributed by local legislation. Harris, of the Savannah Kevs, has found another string upon which he plays against Ben Hill. This time it is about the North Georgia prisoners. Wipe off your chin, young man,and wait a few days, and you’ll hear more about that Gartrcll peti tion. Why is it that, we miss getting the Chronicle & Sentinel for two or three days, and then get several issues at once ? We feel lost almost when we are deprived of Wright’s paragraphs every morning. “Adriannas," the raey correspondent of the Savannah News at Jacksonville, Fla., 6ay8 the accent triumph in the latter city was a triumph of white men and Demo crats over scalawags und niggers. The Democrats.of Mississippi celebrat ed the access on to thr gubernatorial chair of a Democrat,by a tremendous torchlight procession, bonfires and canon firing in nearly every county Ln the State. Just as wc predieted, Harr is has deci ded to completely and everlastingly man gle “R. Melville J.” His latest is to ac cuse the said “R. Melville J” of firing •ome of our senior’s “big guns.” The house bill restoring to the pension list the soldiers of 1812 win add only 120 Confederates, all old and poor, whose an nual allowance will not exceed $9,130.

WTtl not peruiifTiis name f-*nr> fe5"presfiited to the approaching ! gubernatorial convention for re-nonuba- tion.” While we arc not surprised at the Governor’s action in withdrawing his najiuTfroin the approaching convention, we, in common with the people of our section of the State regret it most ex ceedingly. We had hoped that he would have succeeded himself in his present high position, in which he lias shed not only such great lustre about his .own name, but that of the Southern Empire State, for reasons often given in our columns and which need no repe tition now. Since his election to the Speakership of the Georgia House of Representatives, he has been our choice first, last and all the time for the Gov ernorship. His election to that posi tion two times subsequently by the peo ple shows conclusively in this respect that the Democrat cwght the drift of public opinion. No Governor’s ad ministration has been abler, nor has given fuller and more complete satis faction to the State than has his ; and while he has ever and anon been as sailed by fictitious correspondents and n ndescript politicians, his administra tion has never needed vindication before his constituency nor the common coun try. These are lacts which will live forever in the history of our Common wealth. It were perhaps, however, a fitting time for the Governor to announce his determination of retiring from his arduous labors. From a gang of official desparadoes and robbers he grasped the he 1 w of State, and safely moored her from a sea of chaos, bankruptcy, radi calism, despotism and bayonets, to a harbor of peace and prosperity. The tendency of his administration has been onward and upward, until now Georgia stands the greatest country in the Southern galaxy, while he is at the higlit of popularity as her Chief Magis trate ; and the coming generations will write, that he.had never a peer in the Gubernatorial line, where he stood pre eminently the first.

ISi'iith,' Atlanta, fi’i,’ Li ear .San—jiie undersigned, Jour for mer neighbors,, hud still your friends, 'have with greatiaur prise. and indignation, read the unwarranted assaults upon you and your administration, and through your ad ministration upon the Democrats party of Georgia, by correspondents through the public press, the most notable of which ap peared in a recent issue of the New York Herald, and through such means ha e Mined a wide circulation in the States of the Union, calculated to prejudice, not only the high standing of our State, but the good uatne of the Democratic party of Georgia. We do not know from whom these attacks have proceeded, whether from the holders of discredited bonds, partisans or personal enemies. We believe, however, that they do both you and the party which placed you in power gross injustice and place yo^jn a position where the good name of the State, the welfare of the party which placed you in office,- as well as your own dignity, re quire that the truth or falsity of these as saults shall be brought for decision before the people-of Georgia. And to that end, we very respectfully urge upon you the great propriety of meeting these assaults by again permitting your name to be placed before the people of Georgia as a candidate for re nomination to the office of Governor by the Democratic party of Georgia. Should you consent to do so, we feel as sured that you will be sustained by a ma jority at least eptal to that given you at the last election. li e are,-very respectfully, Your friends and fellow citizens, R.

WASHINGTON- Of course our readers look every week for us to give them the “news from Washington-” If we had a daily edition of the Democrat we might keep up,to some extent, with the move ments of men and things at the Nation’s Capitol; but to even attempt to crowd the huge mass of events into-a weekly newspapef wi re a vain task. We thought we would at least keep up with the current of investigation, but we find that also impossible It is nothing else but i lvestigation—and t$ie more they investigate, the more hide ously rotten appears every department of our Government. ’Twcre enough to make every honest American blush to the very roots of his hair to read the details of infamy which are being made at every step, for they certainly have placed a tarnish upon the fair name of this great country which never can be erased. From the President down, it seems that it is fraud, corrup tion and infamy. There are now going on between thir ty and forty special investigations, and there is no guessing when the end will be or what results will be brought forth. The Committees, says the Savannah A'i’ics, are developing an amount of offi cial corruption and rascality in all the departments of the government that is truly astounding. Each day the details of new villianies, until it is impossible for the press to keep up with the disgraceful record, and it is to be apprehended that the public, though only half informed of the fraud and rascality in high places, from the White House down to the smallest of ficial trust, will become so thoroughly wearied, bewildered and confounded, so familiarized with the endless recital of new villainies, that the people will come to regard utter rottenness as the normal condition of the government, and cease to take note of or be -astonish ed at auythiug that may occur, short of TUE REPLY OF HIE GOVERNOR. Atlanta, Ga., April 7, 1870. Messrs, K, H. Chilton, YV. L. Salisbury, John H. Martin. W. J. Watt, Peter Freer, and E. C. Hood, Columbus, Ga: My Dear Sirs ; I have the honor to ac knowledge the receipt of your fitvor of the 13th ultimo, asking me to allow my name to be presented to the people for re-nomina tion for the office of governor ef Georgia- The gravity of the question, thus presented, will I trust, be accepted as a sufficient rea son for any delay in replying to your es teemed communication. It is known to you, gentlemen, as well as to other friends in different parts of the State, that I have not desired a re-election to the- office I now hold. So far as my own personal feelings are concerned, I have made no secret of my intention to retire at the expiration of my present term. If for a little while past, I have appeared to occu py a different position from that originally taken and frequently announced, it was in consequence of assaults made on my admin istration, and, indirectly through me. upon the legislature and the democratic party in the state. It is not necessary to discuss the motives which inspired these attacks, further than to say, that they were of such a character as, in my judgment, made it proper for me to suspend my first intention, and hold my self in a position to answer any .demand which the party might think fit to lay upon me. It is now manifest, however, that any injury resulting from the.se assaults has fallen alone upon those whose interests they wore designed to subserve, whether the sailants be, as you suppose, “the holders of discredited bonds, partisans, or personal enemies.” This consideration leaves nnr free to re turn to my original purpose and desire, and to decline, as I now do, with great respect, to have my name presented to the approach ing gubernatorial convention for renoinina- tiou. I cannot conclude this communication without returning thanks to you for the flat tering terms in which you are pleased to ex press your friendly regards for me. I de sire, also, to make my grateful acknowl edgments to the people of Georgia, for the unmerited honor they have conferred upon me, and for the generous support they have accorded my efforts to administer the great trust confided to my' hands. When we re call the chaotic state in which we found every department of the government in 1872, and contrast it. with our present peaceful and happy condition, I feel that we all have cause lor congratulation. Our public debt has been ascertained, and the interest on it is now regularly paid ; while our bonds are to-day rated far above par in the great cen tres of trade. Our educational system has been established on a solid foundation ; our varied resources are being rapidly and sys tematically developed; and our judiciary, for integrity and ability, is second to none in the entire Union. I can only wish that the prosperous ca reer upon which we have entered may suf fer no check ; an4 that both in our State and Federal relations, we may enjoy for many generations to come, the blessing of peace and liberty. I am, gentlemen, your friend and ob’t serv’t, James M. Smith.
