E&T The Democracy of Atlanta ate
organizing. A large meeting was held
there last Saturday night, composed
of gome of the best citizens of the
place, in which resolutions were pass
ed favoring no nomination at Cincin
nati, and requesting delegates to the
State Covention to vote to that effect.
—— ■ O -4 C » O' - -
&ST It is a fact worthy of notice,
that the Democracy of those States
who have felt most keenly, the despo
tism of Grant’s administration and
carpet bag government, such as South
Carolina and Florida, are almost unan
imous for no nomination at Baltimore,
preferring to see a partial success to a
complete failure.
♦ .....
The Republican party it is
stated will not use any corruption
fund in Georgia during the coming
campaign, this State being hopelessly
Democratic. The Administration it is
stated will give the cold shoulder to
all the Southern States excepting
Alabama, North and South Carolina,
and Louisiana in which they tv ill con
centrate their efforts.
KiT* Boully of the West Point
News is some on the Ego.' The editor
being absent last Aveek lie mounted
the editorial tripod, and as usual when
in command, run the “masheen” on
the high pressure principle, scattering
around profusely with characteristic
gusto, the editorial “ we” “our” and
“ us.” We fear the sorts used in the
composition of those personal pro
nouns, were exhausted in the News
office.
The Democratic State Execu
tive Committee met in Atlanta last
week, and passed a resolution, calling
a convention the 26th June for the
purpose of nominating delegates to
the Baltimore Convention which meets
on the 4th July, and also a resolution
urging Democrats to organize in their
respective districts and counties at
once, for the purpose of sending del
egates to the State Convention and
equipping for the campaign.
Just after the war the South was
considered so poor materially, as well
as weak and helpless politically, that
there was none to do us reverence.—
Our claims were ignored on all sides,
by our northern brethren, notwith
standing we had once been considered
a power in tho land, and they had
fawned and flattered us in days gone
by, for a trade and commerce which
had brought millions to their coffers.
But thanks to her indomitable ener
gy, the South is fast gaining back her
ante bellum commercial prestige, and
becoming again an object of solicitude
to the Northern ‘cities, who see that
there is again a chance for making
some of the “ filthy lucre,” which they
by no means despise, out of the
“ wicked rebels.”
As an evidence of our commercial
importance national statistics show
that the Sovjh contributes more in the
way of exports all other sections
combined.' ' ■
Politically the importance of the
South has also increased wonderfully
in the last four years, until now she
holds in her hands the balance ot
power, and her action in the coming
political campaign is looked to with
interest from every part of the United
States.
Savannah Griffin & North Ala
bama Railroad.
A writer in the Savannah News is
publishing a scries of articles in that
paper, upon the railroad connections
of Savannah with the great W est—
We publish in this isstie of the Times,
as a matter of interest to our readers,
number five of this series, and shall
attempt in this article to give a resume
of the preceding ones.
In number one, the writer points
out the necessity of more direct com*
municatlbn between Savannah and the
chief cities of the Mississippi, as Sa
vannah is the natural outlet' ot these
cities, and thinks that Memphis on ac
count of its bright prospects for be
coming a great distributing point,
and its favorable connection with the
great country still beyond, which is be
ing rapidly populated, is the point
for Savannah to strike in order to
make this connection.
In number two thinks the line
beginning at Griffin and running
North west, or the Savannah Griffin
(Su North Alabama Luilioad, as the
one most worthy of the confidence
aiuj aid of Savannah. Speaks of its
objective point being Decatur Alaba
ma, via. Gadsden, $s Stevenson would
be too far to the E.\st of ;tn air line to
St. Louis and directly away from
Memphis. Thinks Savannah needs a
main trunk connection between the
system of railways leading to Savan
nah and those leading from Memphis,
St. Louis and Chicago, and that this
nupu trunk should begin at Griffiu
and terminate af Decatur, as the
most direct, available and cheap.—
Thinks also that the Savannah, Grif
fin & North Alabama Railroad, would
be a successful competitor of the-
State Road for the business of Nash
ville, Louisville and Cincinnati, as it
is only fifteen miles longer, and wil‘
not be hindered by bad weather, inci
dent to high mountains like Chatta
nooga is frequently in the winter, mak
ing a blockade of freight at that
place.
In number three, it is shown that
this project of a closer communication
ol the Mississppi with the South At
lantic is no novel idea, but was ap
proved in the past, for reasons which
have since been multiplied in force,
and largely added to, and that this
great route was urged by Richard R.
Cuylcr as far back as 1833, during
which year lie had a survey made
from Griffin to Decatur by Emerson
Foote.
In number four the writer shows how
this great work, which had been un
dertaken before the war, was suspen
ded, and how since the war local in
terests and local but able men, have
reorganized the enterprize, and have
quietly built and operated thirty five
miles of the road, with marked econo
my and success, and speaks of the im
portance of the route to Savannah and
shows its superiority over the Vicks
burg route as a transcontinental route
to San Francisco.
Number five of (he series we lay in
full before our readers, which they
can read for themselves in another
place.
The writer whom we presume is
some prominent railroad man, proposes
to continue the series of articles, and
if we think they would be of interest
to our readers' we will publish the
remaining pnes in full in our next is
sue.
The notorious Chap Norris was ar
rested a few days ago in Atlanta upon
a requisition from Warren county,
charged with being accessory to a
murder committed in that county some
time past, and carried to Warrenton
to await trial before the proper tribu
nal. AY hereupon the U. S. Marshal
for Georgia, alleging that Norris was
in danger of violence, makes a requi
sition upon the military commander
at Atlanta, and succeeded in getting
a detachment of troops sent to War
renton ostensibly for his protection.—
Thjs he does without ever enquiring
whether the civil authorities ot the
State were able or willing to protect
Norris, though his office was in stones
throw of that of the Geovenors. I his
high handed outrage upon the State
of Georgia was promptly enquired in
to by Governor Smith, and a short
corespondencc has taken place be
tween him and the military comman
der at Atlanta, resulting in the with
drawal of the troops from Warrenton.
Georgia has been so much under the
control of the civil and military of
ficcrs of the United States, the past
few years, that it seems almost impos
sible for them to recognize the fact
that the civil government of the State
has been restored and is now para
mount to every other authority within
jts limits..

State School Commissioner.
Prof. G. J. On* has issued a lengthy
circular cm the sources and condition
(A the echool fund. The commission
eisik perplexed to ascertain with cer
tainty all the sources of this fund.
Discarding all uncertainties, he states
from undisputed sources that on pa
per the State is due this fund, $242,-
Q27,G2, (for which unsalable bonds
have been and $134,806,-
75, which latter amount ought to be
in actual cash in the Treasury, totai
$377,725,00 In truth, however, the
Treasurer lias informed the Commis
sioner that the whole amount of funds
in his hands, will not reach one-tenth
of the supposed cash credit. In
brief there is virtually at present, no
school fund. As soon as possible the
Treasurer has promised to attempt
the sale of the bonds. Prof. On* is
also of the opinion, if the $377,725,06
were in cash in the Treasury it would
be exhausted m paying the just de
mands of teachers. The Commission
er thus concludes his circular :—JYeic
nan Herald.
The counties may rest assured, then,
that there is no hope of aid in school
operations the present year from the
State.
The taxes of 1872, which will prob
ably yield to the school fund $103,000
and which, it is hoped, will be render
ed secure by the aditional legislation
herein suggested, wifi not be collected
early enough for distribution in aid
of the schools of this year. I would
recommend the different County boards
to make the estimate required of them
in section 38 of the school law upon
the hypothesis that there will be no
aid afforded by the State, and to sub
mit it when made to the Grand Juries,
seeking at the same time, to secure its
approval; but would repeat what I
stated in the circular of the 7<di ci
February, there is no safety in at
tempting actual school work without
that approval
Allow me to say, in conclusion, that
I am not disheartened by the blunders
and mismanagement exposed on al
most every page of this paper. I
am well convinced that, in the altered
State of our Southern society, the pub
lic school system has become an abso
lute necessity. There is no hope out
side of it for multitudes, of the. chil
dren of the State—,white as well as
colored—-while it can be demonstrated
that, under it, education can be made
cheaper, more thorough., and far more
general.
Let us, then, as becomes thoughtful
men, summon to our aid all the pa
tienco, the energy, and the wisdom
which we may be able to copmiand,
and make an earnest, protracted effort
to retrieve the errors of the past, and
build u}» a system, adapted to the
wants of our people, which shall be
the pride and glory of the State.
