Tlio District Convention.
The district convention for this the
67th Senatorial district.jiiet at Frank
lin on last Tuesday, the Bth instant,
for the purpose ot nominating can*
didates lor the constitutional conven
tion. :V
The convention was organised by
calling B. L. Harris Esq., of Troup
county, to the chair, and requesting
Col. S. J. Johnson ot the Fianklin
News, to act as .Secretary.
Upon the roll of the counties being
called, it was louud that all ol the
counties were fully represented, ex
cept Carroll, J. 8. Pentecost, one of
her delegates being absent.
It was agreed that the two-thirds
rule should pretai) in making noinina
fions, and also that each county
should be entitled to twice as many
votes, as it had Representatives in the
loWet branch ot the [General Assem
bly.
At the request of the delegates
from Carroll, the nominations front
that county were put off last, hoping
that her absent delegate might be
present btiore her nominations were
made.
It was decided by the convention
that Heard county was entitled to but
one delegate, and thereupon the name
ot T. M. Aubrey was put in nomina
tion and he uas unanimously elect
ed.
Troup comity put in nomination
the names of W. O. Tuggle, N. G.
Swanson and L. L. Hardy, and they
having received over a two thirds
Vole were declared elected.
The delegates from Carroll, when
the time came for making nominations
from that county, explained the some
what embarrassing position in which
they appeared in the convention. Car
foil had hid a county convention tor
the purpose of designating their
choice for delegates. This conven
tion had failed to agree upon but or.e
man, Col. S. VV. Harris, whose name
they took pleasure iu presenting as the
choice of the county, and a& a gentle
man worthy of nomination by the
district convention. They begged to
be excused f. om naming the other
man from their county, but would
place before the convention, the names
of the most prominent candidates in
their county convention, and let the
district convention decide between
them which should be the man.
They then placed in nomination the
name of Col. 8. VV. Harris and he
was unanimously elected. The names
then of Judge Z. Bonner, Capt. L.
Kendrick and Dr. R. L. Rowe, were
put in nomination. On the first bal
lot the vote was pretty equally divi
ded. On the second. Dr, R. L Rowe
received just u two-thirds vote and
hence was declared the nominee.
A resolution was passed requesting
the delegates to the district conven
tion, from the several counties, to no
tify the nominees of their respective
counties, of their nomination and re
quest an acceptance of the same.
The convention then passed also,
by a unanimous vote, the fol
lowing resolutions, after which it ad
journed:
Resolved, That in case of vacancy
on the the nominated ticket by death
or otherwise, the citixeus of the* coutiv
ty in which the person so vacating
shall reside, shall have authority to
fill the- vacancy in any maimer they
•think best.
Resolved, That tin.' candidates uoni-’
mated for the convention be request
ed to eauvass their respective conn.,
ties, as far as possible, in advocating
the convention au.l explaining tlieii
positions.
In conclusion, we would state, that
the utmost harmony prevailed in the
convention, throughout its Session.
Everything passed off agreeably and
pleasantly.

Troup county was represent, and in the
district convention by JT Waterman,
E A Reid, L L Hardy and B L Har
ris. The latter gentleman presided
over the convention, iu quite an ac
ceptable manner, and made a speech
just before ndjour ling, which
pul him decidedly on the retrench
ment and reform platform.

TUB ANTE'BF.LLUM VETERAN RUSHES IN
TO THE THICKEST OF THE VU»IIT.
Washington, Ga., April 26, 1877.
Dear Bir— Your leiter.it the 17th
ult. requesting my ‘views upon the
subject of calling a convention of the !
people’ to icview the present recog
nized constitution ot this state, has |
been duly received. Other pressing \
engagements have delayed this reply, j
I do not know a single reason against
the call and the public security and
safety demands it. The existing con
stitution is not the act or deed of the
people ot Georgia. It was forced up- I
on them by force and fraud, large |
numbers ot her most worthy, intelli
gent and virtuous citizens were deni
ed the privelege even of voting for
members of the convention who with
but tew exceptions, were hungry, hos
tile, alien enemies, domestic traitors
and ignorant and vicious emancipated
slaves. The last legislamre passed an
act to allow the people to meet in con
vention ami review the work ot these
military appointees, and to amend,
change, and alter it, or accept it it
they like it, and thus make it their
organic law. It is a public shame that
this permission was not given by the
first free legislature and its successor
which met after the flight of Bullock.
Every other one ot our sister provin
ces exeicised the right as soon as they
were able to do so, and have g;eatly
benefited themselves by so doing.
The present government of Georgia
is a usurpation. It has no moral or
legal claims to the support or obedi
ence ot the people. It is wanting in
the consent ot the people, the founda
tion stone ot all rightful government.
Therefore it is a public shame, suppor
ted only by base and wicked men for
selfish purposes. But independent of
the workmen, the work is not good.
The present constitution denies the
right of the states, subordinates them
to the agent, the federal government,
asserts in effect that this is a consoli
dated government, and that we owe
primary allegiance to the the United
States/ We deny it. Let us assert the
truth and maintain it when we can, or
leave the truth to be defended by our
t hildren and children’s children when
ever opportunity offers. The people
wish to review the executive depart
ment of the government. Its tenure is
considered by many too long and
its patronage too great. Its power
over the judiciary department presents
formidable objections to it. The judi
ciaiy system itself is defective—total
ly inadequate to a speedy and impar
tial trial ot either criminal or civil oa
ses. The jury system is vicious and
subjects the country to constant dan
ger. The old grand jury system was
far preferable to the present. The
legislative department demanded re
view by the people. The senate is a
mockery and a nuisance. It has gen
erally defended all the abuses of the
corrupt rule of Bullock and his gang,
the instruments of all corrupt organi
zations to deplete the public treasury
and use the public credit for the pro
motion of local and personal objects,
and not for the general weal. It is
true there have been a considerable
number of able and honest patriT
otic men in that body, but too few to
defeat the greater portion—or estab
lish a sound policy for the state on
many great and vital questions. It
has defeated the call ot a convention
tor four years, and last winter sought
to defeat it by annexing various’condi
tions to the bill. The senate insisted
upon submitting the call to the people
hoping to rally ignorant treedmen.—
All the remnant ol the Bullock gang
both inside and outside of the demo
cratic party; all the friends of spuri
ous bonds, all ‘developers of resources’
generally to defeat the convention.—
They remembered that the call tor the
present constitution was not submit
ted to the people, but was the work
of ‘sabre sway.’ Besides the represen
tation in the senate is grossly unequal.
It is neither based upon population,
territory, protection ot all interests,
nor upon any sound basis of represen
tation. It is purely arbitrary, and was
intended by its authors to perpetuate
as long as possible the power of the
usurpers in spite of the people. The
tenure of officu is long, and ought to
be shortened. Let the people meet in
convention and try to adopt a better
system. But the greatest detect in the
constitution is that it does not protect
the property of the people against in
vasion ot the legislative power. It is
true that was the defect in our old
constitution as well as the present one.
The same causes have greatly increas
ed the danger from this source. Tn all
tree representative governments, the
failure to limit by organic law the
power of the legislative departments
have brought the federal and state
governments and municipal corpora
tions to the verge ot bankruptcy, and
impoverished and ruined the people.
This has been the most fruitful source
of ail our calamities. We must re-mark
and plainly define the dividing line
between individual rights and public
authority. The age in which we live
has developed new r dangers to free
representative governments. Even
the inventions and discoveries of ge
; nius ol the arts and sciences with their
new betirfits and blessings to mankind
! have also brought dangers to good
1 governments This is specially true
lof those inventions and discoveries
! which contribute so largely to the
! production and distribution of wealth
and the spreading of intelligence
aiming men and nations. The im
provements in the application of the
illimitable power of steam and the
utilisation of electricity nre especially
noteworthy elements in their effect up
on modern society and government.—
They have made great associations of
capital, innumerable tud gigantic cor
porations necessary tor their dvelop
meut. These corporations with large
capitals are powerful, and therefore
dangerous to society. They first ab
sorb individual capital*—all right
, enough-then they can borrow still
still right enough—and next the treas
uries of municipal corporations, public
lands and all other public property,
then the treasuries credit ot the na
tional and state governments. This
is all wrong, violates justice, transfers
I he sweat of the poor to the coffers ot
the rich, appropriating the public
funds to private use and profit,-opens
the floodgate of fraud and public de
moralization. What is the remedy
tor these great evils and dangers? We
must find it somewhere or abandon
representative government; we have
seen congiess corrupted, slate legisla
tures corrupted, city authorities cor
rupted, all of our guards of public
property and private credits corrup
ted, anew power is discovered and
political burglary is enrolled among
the useful arts ot government. The
remedy is plain and sufficient for all
these things. We can accept uo other
security but this. We must put it out
of the power of our rulers to injure
society if they wish to do it. Let us
make anew constitution, by that con
stitution make the depository ot the
public treasure and public credit po
litical burglar-proof and put the key
in the pockets ot the people by de
claring that no debt shall ever be cre
ated by the legislature or binding up
on the state except tor the public de
fence, that the stats- shall never be
bound tor ‘the debt, default or mis
carriage ot another.’ This will save
the people and the state from ruin.—
Nothing else will and it must be done
now or we may be too late. Munici
pal corporations should be confined to
their own limits and not permitted to
indorse at all or borrow, except for
the good government ot their respec
tive corporations. The principal pur
pose and necessity tor a call of a con
vention is to consider these and such
others as the people may desire. All
acknowledge the e.'ils. What pres
ent reason can be found against the
proposed search for a remedy by the
people? The people have demanded
it again and again, almost unanimous
ly through their house of representa
tives and all the recognized exponents
of popular will. Thu people have
spoken, let the convention meet.—
What are the objections to it? The
covert enemies of the convention those
who hope to profit bv its abuses, in
cluding others >vho have nut well con
sidered the nVatier have suggested
many. The principal one is that the
convention might euiauger the home
stead law. One of my own great ob
jections to the present constitution is
that it does not secure a sound, Sub
stantial, real homestead to the women
and children cf the state. I want
such a measure. It is far better for
for society that the women and chil
dren ot the state should be secured an
ample and sufficient homestead where
they can be comfortable and happy,
and the children can support them
selves and be brought up Under virtu
ous influences, than to be thrown on
society, houseless and homeless and
pennyless, outcasts and wanderers
subject to all the temptations to crime
in its worst form, and finally to be
come tenants of jails and poor houses.
Let us demand such a homestead ot
the convention; it will injure nobody;
it will only withdraw from trade and
traffic crime or misfortune, a sacred
sanctuary, dedicated to humanity. —
The details may be safely trusted to a
convention of the people. We have
no such homestead. It may be wa»v
ed by the head ot the family. It is
but a life estate in the head ot the
family, and an estaie for years only in
minors and terminates at arriving at
age. It is a sham, but even such as
it is, the objectors well know that such
rights as have been acquired under it
are so secure that no convention could
trouble them if they wished to do it.
The objection is only intended to de
ceive the ignorant and unwary, But
it is also objected that the convention
may remove the capital from Atlanta.
Well, snppo-e they do, shall the sup*
posed personal interest of a few thous
and people weigh a feather against a
good constitutution wieh will protect
the rights, liberties and properties of
all. Away with such nonsense. This is
not true reason. The new constitus
tion would certainly dispose of all fu
ture bond questions, there would he
no further use for the lobby. Make
your constitution right and then there
will b& but. one remaining question as
to the capital and that would simply
be the comfort and convenience of
our public servants in discharging
public trusts. Atlanta would have no
competition ir. such a contest. It is
not worth a thought with freemen. —
Some of the not very ardent triends of
the convention have taken anew dis
ease, which a distinguished senator,
calls the ‘apprehensions.’ They tear
that the convention will put them
selves aud everybody else in jail for
debt; will establish Moses’ mode of
punishment, and do divers other old
and wicked things if ever people let
them come togther at Atlanta to con
sider their organic law. I believe it
is not the practice of organcic laws to
adopt penal codes, that has hitherto
considered the \ tculiar province
of the legislature, and we are content
Jlhat it shall remain there. But per
haps the wicked flee when no man
pursueth. I am, very respectfully,
your obedient servant,
R Toomih.

SILVER.
The Treasury r ffioials are somewhat
alarmed at the Legislature of Ohio
which recently passed a legal tender
act making silver receivable for eilher }
public or private debts to any amount
within the State. This may be a wise
Cf-nrse, but it is thought by Secretary
Sherman to be exceedingly ill advised,
as being calculated to retard full and
compute specie resumption. As the
Legislature ot Illinois is about to fol
low the example of Ohio, knowing
onus aurmioe it is a political dodge tc
unite the inflationists cf both parties
in carrying those States at the com
ing local election, Democratic. It is
rumored in this city among the wise
acres that the Kepresentatives from
the West at the coming session, will
demand a national law to this effect.
Sec. Sheriuan is opposed to this bi
metalie policy, and declares his inten
tion to give it his earnest opposition
in Congress, and prevent, it possible,
its adoption. The new administration
had hope that silver would be kept
from local politics and as efforts would
be made into the financial policy ot
the general government, so that it
could be observed whether or not the
path we are now following would lead
us to such a specie standard that
gold, silver, and notes would Dirculate
upon an equal tooting as :n times of
yore.
A BIU.
is in course ot preparation, and will
be introduced in the House at the ex
tra session, reducing the army to 10,-
000 men, thereby effecting a saving
to the government of many millions
ot dollars. Now that the Indian wars
are at an end, and the troops ai e to
be used uo longer for police duty in
the Southern States, we contend there
is no need ot a standing army in lliis
country, and it should bo abolished
altogether, and make a big retrench
ment that will be ot some good to our
Uncle Sam’s pocket,
TEXAS PACIFIC.
It is confidently asserted that ‘the
President’ will in his message to
Congress, at the coming extra session,
recommend as a part of his [South
ern policy, ‘The Texas Pacific R. R.’—
Nothing that he could do would bo
more popular with the Southern 'mem
bers as well as the Southern people,
than such a recommendation. They
hive been so wrought upon by this
enterprise that they look to the com
pletion of this road as the dawn of
their prosperity. There is scarcely an
ambitious little towu from the Poto
mac to the gulf that does not expect
to profit by it in a more or less de
gree, and the politicians and business
men get almost as much excited on
this subject as over the wrongs inflicts
ed by carpet bag governments.
THE SOUTH CAROLINA CUXAKD.
The write! ot the letter detailed the
alleged murder ot the colored preach
er Scott, in South Carolina, which
threw the New England conference in
such spasms of indignation, was Alon
zo Webster, postmaster at Orange
burg, S. C. As it has since appeared
that Scott was only not murdered, but
no attempt was male to do so. Our
Post Master General is now inquiring
ot Webster how and why he connect
ed himself with such a transaction and
thereby reflecting upon the Depart
ment and its proper uses, and it is
believed the P. M. will have to stop
‘down and out.’
GOV. MC CORMICK.
A good story is told ot the assistant
Secretary. One ot his eyelids has a
tendency to irregular closing. In a
recent interview with two pretty girls
who were applicants for positions.—
He treated both very politelv, but
cane neither much encouragement.
When they came out one said to the
other ‘well it looks blue fo>* us dont it’
‘yes' was the reply ‘it may look blue
tor you, but I t hink I am all right tor
when he was discovering you he was
winking at me as much as to say,
‘you don t believe what I am telling
her.’
ASPIRING YC UNO DOCTORS.
Any number of young doctors all
over the countiv have written to the
Turkish and Russian Ministers here,
offering then services for position on
the army medical staff of die two gov
ernments. Neither of the embassa
dors has the power to accept such ot
fers, bill should the war continue long
the applicants may receive considera
tions and yet icalize their brightest
visions.
THE REPUBLICAN AX.
S. 11. Colbath. a brother of the late
Vice-President* Wilson, has been dis
missed from his position of doorkeep
er of the Senate, and given to a per
son who can command more present
influence. FrotnaCol(d) bath to a
cold shoulder. 'Twas even thus. So
in the Treasury reduction the luck
less weight whose political influence
was departed by death or other cause,
was ordered to take up his bed and
walk, as Mb Sherman hid no further
use for him. Ciyil service is a most
admirable retoi rn to those who are
backed bv prominent politicians. Rut
the reform dors not apply to the Clerk
wtio has nothing but individual merit
to recommend him,
LOUISIANA.
There is a strong probability now
that the true inwardness of the Louis
iana returning board proceedings will
in a short time be made public. Pack
ard feels much embittered against
Hayes, and those who know him best
say that since he has threatened cer
tain exposures, he will be as good as
his word. The principle interest at
tach#! to the confession of Packard,
Wells, Anderson & (Jo , will be their
recital ol ill- ir seciet transactions with
certain leading Republicans. Now
that the parties to the villainy have
fallen out there seems no room to
question that board did actually re
ceive a large sum of money from the
Republican managers, besides the
promise of lucrative Federal offices.

We place at the head of our col
umns the names of the delegates nom
mated by the convention at Franklin
on last Tuesday. The ticket is a
strong and acceptable one.
• Mr. Aubrey, the candidate from
Heard, we are assured, is an intelligeut
farmer, a gentleman who will vote
right, in case a convention is called,
upon the questions that will come up
for consideration in that convention.
VV. O. Tuggle, one of the delegates
from Troup, has given no little con
sideration to the st idy of our state
government and the best means of a.L
ministering it, upon an economical
schedule, and no man in the district
is probably belter qualified, for the
position of delegate to the convention
than he is. N. G. Swauson and LL.
Hardy, the other delegates from
Troup are practical intelligent farmers
men ot sense and worth, who have
conect views of the reforms needed in
our present organic law.
Os our own delegates it is not nec
essary for us to apeak. Our people
are well acquainted with both of the
gentlemen As to their position up
on the questions that will come up for
consideration in the constitutional
convention, in case one is called, we
leave them to speak for themselves.
