The Difference.
Some Grant Republicans, make a
great to do, over General Grant's pre
venting the arrest of General Lee, just
after the war. They think he deserves
jnoro credit for this act than
Greeley does for going upon the bond
of Jeff. Davis. There is just this dis
ferencc between the two acts: Gree
ley’s was voluntary, and was done
purely through kindness of heart, in
opposition to the w ishes and counsel
of his friends, at a time when he
knew’ that it would result in great pe
euniary loss <o himself, also when he
"was fold that it would defeat his elec
tion to the Senate of the U. S., w hich it
did. Notwithstanding, this actarraycd
him against his ow T n people, he had
the moi*al courage to do it, because he
thought it was right, and would have
a good effect upon the country. We
candidly believe General Grant de
serves no credit for preventing the ar
rest of General Lee. What else could
he have done? General Lee had sur
rendered to General Grant, upon the
express stipulation that haSfnor his
pflicers, or men were to be disturbed,
no long as they in good faith kept
their paroles. The writer has one of
these paroles now in his possession,
and knows this to have been the con
tract. Under these circumstances for
General Grant to have tacitly con
sented to the arrest of General Lee,
it w'ould have been a violation of his
own contract, and would have con
signed his name to everlasting infamy.
State Road Lease.
The report of the committee to in
vestigate the fairness or unfairness of
the lease of the State Road has been
made. Four of the Committee think
the lease obtained unfairly, one not.—
The evidence on which the majority of
the committee base their opinion of
the unfairness of the lease, is : Ist.
That the security tendered by the
present lessees is not valid, as railroad
.companies are prohibited by their
charters, from becoming security. 2d.
That as there weyc two companies
originally, the one formed by Ilill, and
the other by Brown, and that as the
Hill company proposed giving $25050,
per month, therefore the law was vio
lated, and the State defrauded, by the
combination of tire two, agreeing up
on the Brown bid of $25,000. od
That according to the evidence of one
of the witnesses, $50,000 was raised
after the lease was made, to pay out
side parties, and that Kimball said,
that the Lessees oyved their scats to the
promise to pay SIBO,OOO, but only
$50,000 yvas urgent at that time. Not.
withstanding the testimony upon this
last point is conflicting, the majority
of the committee rush to the conclu
sion, the money yvas not only raised,
but that it yvas used to bribe officials.
The Minority report combats ably
all the conclusions of the Majority, and
shoyvs satisfactorily that there yvas
no unfairness in the lease, and that
it is the interest of the people that the
road remain whore it is, as it is noyv
paying $25,000 per month into the
state Treasury , as much as railroad
men generally agree that the Lessees
can give for it, and secure themselves-
fcsf’ Gradually the Democratic pa
j)ers, which have been opposing Gree
ley r are falling into lino. The Savau
jiah News r one ©f the ablest papers in
the State, and one having probably
the largest circulation, has taken all
along a very decided stand against
the Philosopher, but it now says it
must go with its friends, and hence it
will do all- it can to defeat Grant and
elect Greeley.
Wk Si:oy)m> the Motion.— ln view
•of the fact, that it is quite probable,
that the bill now pending before the
Legislature for bringing cm our Slate
election for Governor, Congressmen
&c., in October, will become a law,
the La Grange Reporter thinks that a
convention of this Congressional Dis
trict should be held at an early dav,
and suggests the 28th August as the
i time, and La Grange as the place. We
kheartily adopt the suggestion of the
■Reporter, as the time is no no .too earlv,
■►nd La Grange is as central point as
Wmld be selected.
Noith Car* linn Election.
Groat stress is laid upon the North
Carolina election, by both parties, as it
is'thc first State to vote since the Presi
dential candidates have been in the
field. Recognizing its important bear
ingupon their chief’s political fortunes,
the Ad mi strati on has left no stone un
turned to carry the result in its favor.
Wilson their candidate for the Vice
Presidency, and several members of
the Cabinet, and others of their best
orators made electioneering speeches
all over the State. Money to bribe,
and Kn-Ivlux warrants to intimi
date, were used freely. Yet in spite of
all tins, our latest reports from the
election which took place on the Ist,
indicate, the election of a Democratic
governor by a small majority, five out
of eight congressmen and a majority
in the Legislature.
o
Presumption.
The La Grange Reporter and some
of its correspondents are urging the
claims of Troup county for the Con
gressional candidate, upon the plea
of rotation, and that Muscogee and
Coweta have had alternately the can
didates since the war. From the way
these parties yvrite, one would infer
that this Congressional District is com
posed of only three counties, Musco
gee, Coyveta and Troup, and that
“ equity ” demands, that Troup should
have the nominee this time. They
ignore entirely the claims of the other
counties of the District, notwithstand
ing it yvill be a tight push for either
of the above named counties to give
a Democratic majority in the coming
election, and that if a Democrat is
elected from this Congressional Dis
trict, it must be by the Democratic
votes of the ignored counties. Our
Troup county friends are quite oblig
ing indeed, in proposing to relieve
three fourths of the District, from the
responsibility of furnishing a candi
date for so responsible an office, as
member ot Congress, or perhaps, they
are laboring under the hallucination
so common yvith the egotistical and
superficial, that they have a monopo
ly of all the brains in the District, and
therefore they alone knoyv hoyv to up
predate the “ loaves and fishes,” and
“ run the masheen.”
D € mocratie Meeting,
A Democratic meeting yvas held in
the Court House on last Tuesday, for
the purpose of organizing a Democrat
ic executive committee for the county,
Judge Shelnutt of Boyvdon presided
and M. R. Russell acted as secratary.
The chair being authorized to. appoint
the committee, appointed the follow -
ing gentleman : M. It. Russell, Tlios.
Chandler, Eli Benson, D. B. Julian,
G. W. Austin and G. S,*Sharp. At a
short consultation of the committee,
after their appointment, B.
Julian yvasapointed chairman, and it
yvas agreed that any three of the com
mittce would constitute a quorum.—
The committee also issued the follow
ing call for the election of delegates
to a county convention to be held on
the first Tuesday in September, for
the purpose therein mentioned :
It is requested by the Executive
Committee, that the Democratic party
of the Militia Districts meet on Satur
day the 17th inst., at their respective
precincts, and elect two delegates from
each District, to represent their Dis
trict in a convention to be held at
Carrollton on the first Tuesday in Sep
tember next. Said convention to be
held for the purpose of nominating
a candidate to represent the county
in the Legislature, and also to nomi
nate candidates for the various coun
ty offices, and to appoint delegates to
represent the county in the ord Con
gressional District convention.

To the Carroll Democracy.
f i w
Notwithstanding my political utter
ances, in regard to the candidate the
Democratic party, has Adopted for the
residency, have been confined princi
pally to those of my own, immediate
vicinity, yet I am not unmindful of
the fact that my sentiments, hereto
fore expressed, on this subject-, have
been carried to more remote parts of
the county, which induces me to
adopt, this method, of proclaiming my
present, and future position, and to
give, briefly, my reasons therefor.
I have said, I did not like to sup
port Mr. Greeley, and may have gone
so far as to say, I would’not; or if I did,
it would be a bitter pill etc. But in
my private musings, and during mo
ments of calm and dispassionate medi
tation, I have often asked myself the
question. “ What shall Ido ? I can
not vote for Grant, and thereby aid?
and assist in perpetuating, the power,
that I detest; the power that lias
persistently and continuously ignored
constitutional rights, both national,
State, and individual; the power that
has oppressed, impoverished, and im
prisoned my country men ; that has
punished innocence, and protected
the ignorant and guilty. No! I can
not think of giving by vote, anew
lease to this power, which when grant
ed, will be as a matter of course, ex
e-rted more extensively, and with more
damaging results to us as a people ;
for this will naturally follow, with the
view of obtaining a renewal of this
lease of power, if not, that of setting
up an absolute despotism. The cen
tralizing tendency of the present ad
ministration, fully justifies this conclu
sion.
This arguing unto myself, has given
me no little vexation. Yet it has
finally driven me to a sense of the fact;
that to refuse to support Greeley, and
go with my friends, will be virtually
aiding Grant, and perpetuating the
power that has sustained him, which
of humanity, and sense of
justice, will not permit me to do. And
therefore I have come to the satisfac
tory conclusion, that it is my duty,
and that of all others' entitled to the
elective franchise, who love and desire
liberty, peace and prosperity, to &up
l'K>rt cheerfully the Cincinnati and
Baltimore nominee. lie stands upon
a platform of principles, it is true, that
does not go so far, as to include all
the principles which Democrats love,
and clieri- ii; yet at the same time
every plank in th'at platform is alto
gether incompatible, with the purpo
ses, and obvious tendency of the pros
out party in power, at Washington.—
Therefore we should aid in establish
ing these principles. It is our duty to
do so, and \\;e should not let the indi
vidual opinions of the candidates, on
a question which is Lurried with the
strife and turmoils of the past, and
which has no concern whatever, with
the mighty present, and the untold
future, arouse our prejudices to a
blindness, and neglect of the duty
we owe ourselves and children. And
I have furthermore come to the con
clusion, that under all the circum
stances, it would have been very pre
sumptions in the Democratic party,
and altogether impolitic, for it to have
gone forward, even in advance of the
Cincinnati convention, and nominated
a Democratic candidate; for by so
doing we would have lost the frater
nizing effect and influence which a
unity, or fusion with those our near-
est friends has produced. On ques
tions of National policy, and local self
government, and other constitutional
rights, the Liberals and Democrats,
will no doubt hereafter fully agree,
and by this union we will be enabled
to remove from place, and power,
those who have passed, and enforced
the odious, and tyranical measures
which have been the instruments of
oppression, in the hands of our cue
ink's, by which the Democratic party
has been kept in the back ground
since the close of the war. Ly co
operating with the Liberals in this
election, our party will be enabled, to
make herself recognised, and respect
ed, and as heretofore, become a great
national party. Should this fusion of
the Democrats with the Liberals,
prove successful in the election of
Greeley, lie will naturally recognise
these two elements, as composing the
power that elevated him to the high
est office in the nation. And it will
follow as philosophically as effect docs
cause, that he will assimilate himself to
the essentials of these two elements of
power, and sustain, and patronize the
same, in the distribution of office, and
power. It is unnatural for one to ig
nore the .power that sustains him. Re ,
sides, by pursuing tills course, we.
make very considerable gains in Con
gross, which is an item of more im
portance to us, if possible, than the I
Presidency. The Liberals as well as
Democrats, are now opposed to the
legislation which has characterized that j
of Congress. Since the war, they j
agree pretty nearly upon the kind of j
national legislation now needed, and ;
a Liberal in Congress, will be to us, j
about the same an a Democrat. And ,
again this course will greatly aid us in
the election of state and county offi-,
eers, a matter of no mean importance.
Let us then go forward, with ©nr!
fri'-ud'. mpled and harmonious, to a
faithful discharge of our duty, in the
present emergency, in consideration of
the great results, to be achieved by
success, —the evils that are to he cor
reeled—evils.that threaten the over
throw of our form of government. —
The great and the good, of our State,
Benning, Gordon, Colquitt and others,
say that our only refuge from present
and future evils, lies m a valiant fight,
under the banner of the great alliance,
effected at Baltimore. Can we sus
picion their sincerity, or doubt their
patriotism? Can we discredit their
wisdom or sagacity? There is one
thing we all know, and that is, the
Soutli can expect nothing from per
petuating the present administration ;
but we have pledges of better things,
upon the inauguration of anew one.
This desirable event, the living may
confidently hope to see.
Respectfully,
G. W. Austin.

which he did, being to appoint dele
gates to represent said county in the
Convention to meet in Atlanta on the
25th inst., to nominate a Republican
candidate for Governor, and arrange
a suitable electoral ticket for Grant
and Wilson for President and Vice
President of the United States, and

tions, accompanied with a few appro
priate remarks, when on motion ot
Thomas E-uterkin, the same were
unanimously .adopted:
Whereas t he administration of Pres
ident Grant is marked with “Wisdom,
Justice and Moderation.” His finan
cial policy, strict and impartial enforc
ment of the laws, and his dealings
with all classes and sections of the
country, his wise and pacific ccurse,
pursued in his intercourse with other
nations, has brought peace at home
and abroad, and a general prosperity
throughout our great country, seldom
enjoyed by a people, therefore,
lie-solved, That while we regard Mr.
Greeley, his opponent, a true-Republi
can, we prefer to let well enough
alone,” and support Grant for the en
suing term; and as old political differ
ences are about to pass away, and all
agree upon principles, we cordially in
vite all true patriots regardless
of former political affiliations, to join
with us, vote for Grant and Wilson,
and continue this reign of peace and
prosperity, for another four years.
liesolved, That the proceedings of
this meeting be signed by the Chair
man and Secretary, and that same be

and Atlanta Whig with a request to

Mr. Greeleyk Letter, Accepting
Democratic K omination.
New York, July 18, 1872. Gen
tleman : Upon mature deliberation it
seems fit that I should give to your
letter of the 10th instant some furth
er and fuller response than the hasty,
mroremediated words in which I ac
knowledged and accepted your nom
ination at our meeting on live 12th.
That your Convetion saw fit to accord
its highest honor to one who had
been prominently, pointedly, opposed
to your party in the earnest and an
gry controversies of the last forty
years is an important fact and it is
also essentially noteworthy that
many of you originally preferred
that the Liberal Republicans should
present another candidate for Presi
dent, and would more readily have
united with us in the support of Ad
ams or Trumbull, Davis or Brown. It
is well known that I owe my adop
tion at Baltimore wholly to the fact
that I had already been nominated
at Cincinnati, and that a concentra
tion of forces upon any ticket had
been proved impracticable. Grati
fied as I am at your concurrence Jm.
the Cincinnati nominations, certain as
lam that you would not have thus
concurred, had you not deemed me
upright and capable, I find nothing
in the circumstances calculated to hi
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 satisfac
tion. That body was constrained to
take .this important step by no party
necessity, real or supposed. It might
have accepted the candidates of the
Liberal Republicans upon grounds en
tirely its own, or it might have pre
sented them as the first Whig Na
lional'Convention did Ilanison and
Trier, without adopting any plfttfonn
whatever.
That it chose to plant itself deli her
alelv, by a vote nearly unanimous,
1 upon the fullest and clearest enuncia-
I tion of the principles which are at
: once incontestably Republican and em
phatically Democratic, gives trust
worthy assurance that anew and more
auspicious era is dawning upon our
long distracted country. Some of the
! best years and best efforts of my
life were devoted to a struggle against
chattel slaverv, a struggle none the
less earnest or arduous because re
spect for constitutional obligations con
strained me to act for the most part
;on the defensive at a distance.—
Throughout most of those years my*
vision was cheered, my exertions
were rarely animated by even so much
as n hope that I should live to see my
country peopled by freeman alone.
The affirmance by your Convention of
the Cincinnati platform is a most
conclusive proof that not merely is
slavery abolished, but that its spirit
is extinct ; that despite the protests
of a re-pec table but isolated few;
there remaines among us no party and
no formidable interest which regrets
the overthrow' or desires the establish
ment of human bondage whether in
letter or in spirit. lam therefore
justified in my hope and trust, that
the first century of American mde
pendence will not close before the
grand elemental truth on which its
right-fulness was based by Jefferson
and the Continental Congress of 7G
will no longer be regarded t\s gli r
ing generalities, but will have be
come the universally accepted and
honored foundation of our political fab
ric. I demand the prompt applies
tion of those principles to our existing
condition. Having done what I
could for the complete emancipation
of the blacks, I now insist on the full
enfranchisement of all mv white conn
trymen. Let no one say the ban lias
fust been removed from all but a few
lintel red, elderly gentleman, to whom
eligibility to office can be of little con
sequence. My views contemplate not
the hundred proscribed, but the mil
lion who arc denied the right to be
ruled and represented by men.of their
unfettered choice.
Proseiption were absurd if these did
not wish to elect the very men whom
they are forbidden to choose. I have'
a profound regard for that New En
gland wherein I was born—in whose
common schools I was taught. I rank
no other people above them in into!
Hgence, capacity and moral worth.
Put while they do many t hings well and
some admirably, there is one thing I
am sure they can’t do, and that is the
selection for States remote from and
unlike their own of the persons by
whom those States shall be represen
ted in Congress. If they could do
this to good purpose, then republican'
institutions were unfit and aristocracy
the only true political system. Yet,
what have ve recently witnessed ?
Zebulon Ik \ mice, the unquestioned
choice of a large majority of the pres
ent Legislature ot North Carolina—a
majority backed by a majority of the
people who voted at his election—re
fused the seat, in the Federal Senate
to which lie was fair!ycliosen, and the
Legislature thus constrained to chose
another in his stead or leave the
State unrepresented for years. The
vote of New England thus deprived
North Carolina of the Senator of her
choice, and compelled her to send an
other in his stead—another who, m
our late contest, was like Vance, a
rebel and a fighting rebel, but who
had not served in Congress before
the war, as Vance had, though the lat
ter remained faithful to the" Union till
after the close of Ids term. I protest
against the disfranchisement of a State
presumptively of a number of States,
on grounds so narrow and technical
as this. The fact that sen
ate widen refused k ance his seat pro
ceeded to remove the disabilities'after
that seat had been filled by another,
only serves to place in the strongest
-light the indignity to Forth C arolina,
and the arbitrary, captious, tyranny
which dictated it, I thank you, gen
tleman, that my name 13 to* be con
spicuously associated with yours in a
determined effort to render amnest y
complete and universal in spirit as
wt il as in letter. A defeat in such a
cause would leave no sting, while tri
ijmph would rank it with those victo
ries which no blood reddens, and
which evokes no tears but those of
gratitude and joy. Gentlemen, your
platform which, is also mine, assures
me that Democracy is not henceforth
to stand for one thing and Republi
canism for another, but that those
terms are to mean, in politics, as they
nave always meant in tlie dictionary,
substantially one and the same thing
namely, equal rights, regardless of
creed or dime or color, i had this
as a genuine new departure from out
worn feuds and meaningless conten
tions in the direction of progress and
reform. Whether I shall be found
worthy to bear the standard ol the
great Liberal movement which the
Amercan people have inaugurated is
to be determined not by words but
by deeds. With me, if I steadily ad
vance—over me, if I 'falter—this grand
army moves to arckieve for our conn
try her glorious beneficient destiny
i remain, gentlemen, yours,
Horace Greeley.
