\T LA NT A I»I: M O CRACY.
The good people of Atlanta have
had and yet propose to have excited
times in resjiect to the election of
delegates to the Baltimore Conven
tion. Agreeable to notice, a large
assemblage met at the hall of the
House of Representatives to hear
from the Hon. 'Linton Stephens on
the pending controversy of the day.
As was to lie expected, the distin
guished gentleman delivered a strong j
and able speech, bast'd on the idea of
the maintainanee of State Rights, or j
in convertible terms, of Democratic
principles. The argument, of course,
is altogether acceptable to every
State Rights man in the country,
and no point can or ought to be made
upon Mr. Stephens as to the views
expressed in this portion of his
speech. No man of the party can be
found in the State who is in favor of
centralism, and any argument ad-,
dressed on this subject is simply, :
therefore, a waste of words. The oh-j
jeet of the sjieaker, however, was to !
show, on this point, that Greeley was j
as much of a centralist as Gen. Grant,
and that, therefore, upon principle,
if Gen. Grant was objectionable to
the Democratic party, Mr. Greeley
must be equally so; and as a con
sequence, should not in this contest
l>e adopted as the candidate of the
Democracy for the Presidency. A
comparison is drawn between Grant
and Greeley, in order to prove this
point, and the life of Greely is ran
sacked in order to show that he is
the bitter opponent of Democratic
principles, and that he had always
been so. We think that, however <
true or however forcible may have |
been the argument of the gentleman,
the points to which he would call
public attention have little or noth
ing to do witli the question now be
fore the party and the country. We
would, however, remark that in ref
ence to the principles avowed by Mr.
Greeley, and which are directly in
the tcetli of the Radical creed, and
upon which the Liberal party, with
Mr. Greeley at their head, goes into
this contest, they are to be found in
tfie platform of the Cincinnati Con
vention; and as we insist, are just
such as any good Democrat would
heartily endorse, with the exception
of the Constitutional amendments.
The latter are now parts of the Con
stitution, and must so stand and be
received, until set aside in the mode
prescribed by the Constitution itself.
Let any one take that platform, and,
judging for himself, point out if he
can, any one principle there set forth,
not fully in accordance with the very
spirit and essence of sound Democ
racy. It is upon these principles,
and these alone, and not upon any of
the dead issues of the past, dead as to
this contest most certainly, if not for
the future, that Mr. Greeley plants
himself, and with these he will win
the fight, or be defeated. If to prove
that Mr. Greeley has been the enemy
of the South and of Democracy in
the past be sufficient to ensure his
defeat, then is his case already made
out, for no one can be found who will
not in all this give a verdict against
him ; and indeed so bitter is all that
remembrance of the past and its
many, many wrongs, and the fierce
and persistent assaults of Greeley
himself, that personally, he has with
the Democracy, no one at the South,
who could honor him so far as to
even think of his name in connection
witli the Presidency. But new times
and new circumstances demand new
and different action, and for one we
are content in this contest with the
avowed declaration of principles
made by the Liberal party and upon
which Horace Greeley stands to-day,
in opposition to Ulysses Grant and
the Radical party. This is our foe
and our oppressor. Grant is their
leader and chief, and the avowed
representative of ail of their mis
chievous doctrines and their tyrran
ical acts. Horace Greeley, and the
Liberal party with him, protest
against this rule of tyrrany and call
for a return to sound Democratic
constitutional principles and action,
and are upon all these points in per
fect harmony of principle and action
with the Democratic party. So far
from agreeing witli Grant and the
Radicals, Horace Greeley and the
Liberals are as far from them as the
east is from the west. But, even if
all that is said by Mr. Stephens and
others could be established as true,
and for the present we would not de
ny it, if even now Greeley was one
of them in all that constitutes a Rad
ical, yet if by his means an opportu
nity was offered to divide and destroy
Radicalism itself with its odious rule,
sound policy would dictate the ac
ceptance of the proffered aid, and we
should at once close in with the offer.
It were wisdom to use the first-lieu
tenant of his Satanic majesty, if so,
we might whip out the devil, and
thus preserve ourselves from his dia
bolical schemes. We are weak, we
need aid; let us not throw away the
proffered alliance of arms and battle
against a common foe.
After the speech of Mr. Stephens,
the Hon. Robert Toombs discoursed,
or harrangued, or “ charged the con
gregation,” or whatever else you may
please to term it. The Constitution
says he made “ a characteristic
effort.” We beg to be excused. We
think Toombs did rib such thing.
The speech, or talk, or whatever else
you may call it, was unworthy of
that distinguished and talented gen
tleman ; and betrayed such want of
co-herency, and of his usual good
sense, and great intellect; was so
disrespectful and unkind to many
distinguished gentlemen, and a great
host of honest, respectable people, all
over the State, and to very many of
his warm friends and his personal
admirers, and, indeed, was in much
of it, so utterly nonsensical, that in
our judgment it was anything else
than characteristic. Toombs is a
man of great mind; no one has more
volume of brain than he, and this
speech, if speech it can be called, has
none of the ear-marks of his master
mind. The Constitutionalist inti
mates that it was “ post-prandial”—
an after-dinner affair. Perhaps so;
for it don’t sound like Bob Toombs,
and something other than himself
must have produced it. We were sor
ry that he made the speech, and re
gretted that the Atlanta papers were
so inconsiderate of his good fame as
to put it in print.
Since then the Democratic party of
Fulton county has had a grand ral
ly, and after much sparing between
the different wings, the Greeley suc
ceeded in carrying the day, offering
resolutions which were accepted by
the leaders of the other faction, and
adopted by the meeting. After
adopting the resolutions, and electing
what is considered a Greeley ticket
to the State Convention, the meeting
adjourned. The Sun says, in sub
stance, that before this was done,
however, upon a call made, a major
ity of the entire meeting left the
room, disgusted with the proceedings,
and are now circulating and signing
a call for all true Democrats to meet
and try it again. It is a little curious
that if a majority of the meeting
were opposed to Greeley, that they
diil not stay and control the meeting,
and pass their own resolutions and
elect their own men. There must be
some mistake here, and the Sun,
usually “so brightly beaming,” is
just a little cloudy and somewhat
obfuscated on this point. We take it
that the Greeley boys outnumliered
the others, and therefore were enabled
to have it their own way.
We regret to see this state of
things, and the more so that it is the
natural and inevitable offspring of
the “ no never” teachings of Mr. Ste
phens (A. H.) It ought not so to be.
Let the majority of the party say
what it will do in its State Conven
tion, and then when Baltimore shall
determine the proper policy to be
pursued by the party, let the “no
never men” subside and clear the
track, or beware of the tread of the
elephant. “ United we conqner, di
vided we fall,” and so let every man
lay aside his preconceived opinions
and personal prejudices and throw all
his strength, just this once, in favor of
that cause which in its success or de
feat embraces our fortunes or our
woes.

AN EXCURSION THROUGH THE MOUN
TAIN’S O F GEORGIA-OBSERVATIONS
CONCERNING RAILROAD ROUTES,
THEIR PRACTICALITY, I'E AS ABILI
TY AND NECESSITY, WITH A PRE
SENTATION OF THE RESOURCES OF
THAT REGION—ITS AGRICULTURE—
SUGGESTIONS AS TO ITS FUTURE.
Glen Holly, Ga., May 28,1872.
On the 16th inst., one o’clock, P.
M., after the adjournment of the rail
road meeting, at Cartersville, called
by me, for the citizens of the town
to review and consider a proposition,
made to them by the Superintendant
of the Air Line Railroad, to build a
road from Gainesville to Cartersville.
we started with horse, buggy and ser
vant to go through the mountain re
gion north and east of us.
The object was to see the country
as it now is, consider its resources, its
adaptation to railroads, and to mark
the changes, made in thirty years
time, when we last passed through
it.
We stopped the first night with
Mr. Ramsaur, near Fair Mount.
Thence we proceeded to Talking
Rock, to Ellijay, to Morganton, to
Blairsville and to Hiwassee. Thence
a short distance into Clay county,
North Carolina. Returning to Hi
wassee, we crossed the Blue liidge at
a Eunicoy Turnpike, and passed on
to Cleveland, White county. Thence
passed to Leathers’ Ford, by Frog
Town and Canton, to Etowah, Geor
gia.
The country from Cartersville to
Fair Mount, 21 miles, —former Cass,
now Bartow and Gordon counties—is
a good agricultural region, with a
large proportion of good land, and
several of the best farms in this coun
try. It lies mainly in valley lands,
dividing the waters of Coosawattie
and Etowah rivers. There are no
large bodies of minerals on this line
of travel, and the forest products are
not interesting.
From Fair Mount to Talking Rock
we pass over a mountain ridge and
hilly country, with many high lull
sides, unoccupied, heavily set with
fine forest growth. The lands are
well adapted to clover, grass and
wheat, with many small bodies of
meadow lands, with but little in
dications of minerals in large supply.
In exploring these hills, twenty years
ago, we were attracted by good indi
cations of Plumbago.
Ou Talking Rock there is valuable
water-power; and it is made availa
ble for a valuable cotton mill.
After crossing Talking Rock, we
find but little of interest, until we get
into the valley of Ellijay river and its
tributaries.
Along this valley, to the village of
Ellijay, and on the route to Morgan
ton, Blairsville and Hiwassee, in
Towns County, we have a country,
which, being seen when passed with
railroad speed, presents a scene of en
chantment. The passenger would be
charmed by the lengthened course of
bottom lands habitually opening be
fore him and closing behind him,
coursing to suit the clear and quiet
streams that water, and the impend
ing, jutting mountains that look down
upon, them.
The slow, laborious jog trot of a
horse and buggy tires the traveler,
however, so as to cause an occasional
unpleasantness. And it is sad but true
to tell, that thirty years since first
we traversed these valleys, have pro
duced a great change in the fertility
and productive powers of these beau
tiful lands. A careless and reckless
system of agriculture has caused it,
and, in many parts, has impoverished
the lands, until many persons are
now anxious to leave, because bread
is scarce and money hard to get.
Wheat, it is said, does not do well.
The growth of clover and grasses,
with lime and gypsum, and just farm
ing, are the remedies. They will
make this country better than it ever
was.
This is a great fruit region. Ap
ples are not so plenty. Peaches very
lull in bearing this year. From the
village of Hiwassee, up that river to
the mountain, at the Eunicoy Turn
pike Gap, the lands, good as they
were once, are nearly worn out, and
the country, in many places, desert
ed.
On the east side of the Blue Ridge,
by Cleveland, White county, through
Lumpkin, Habersham, Dawson and
Cherokee, *tlong the valley of the
Etowah, the scene changes. It is not
so picturesque and beautiful, but
more productive, and, generally, bet
ter cultivated. This section, howev
er, is greatly behind as an agricultural
country.
The people, as seen in passing, are
a grand race, in this country, espe
cially the females. Their physical
development is remarkably good.
Iron ore, copper and gold are found
in this valley, and iron is made by
bloomeries of high quality; but the
ore is not so abundant as we supposed.
Gold mines have been worked exten
sively in Gilmer and Fannin. In
Towns county, in many localities, Co
rundum is found in loose specimens
on the surface. But as yet, no vein,
or strata, or large deposit, is known.
Iron ore, with gold in successive
localities, exists from Narcoochee
Valley, Habersham, down to Carters
ville, and to the Alabama line. Anil
this constitutes the great mineral re
gion of Georgia.
A railroad would produce a won
derful result in this country. It
would pay the State well to build one
hundred miles of railroad through
these counties, connecting with the
Western & Atlantic Railroad.
Two lines of railroad are indicated
by the necessities and interests of this
region, and authorized by its topog
raphy: One from Towns county, by
Blairsville, Morganton and Elijay, to
Calhoun or Dalton; the other from
Rabun Gap, by Narcoochee, Cleve
land and the Etowah Valley, to Car
tersville.
Those who understand the system
of railroads, now organized, will ap
preciate what we now say, to-wit:
First, we are dependent on the
combinations, of interest and power,
of Southern cities and railroad mo
nopolies, or on similar interests,
North and West.
Savannah and Macon, Augusta,
Charleston anil Atlanta, with the
Central, the Georgia and the Western
& Atlantic Railroads, are the South
ern power, and our dependence here.
The planting interest is a power Q f it
self, but cannot be combined for any
purpose. If it could, it might build
railroads or move mountains.
We have no money power in this
section. The Pennsylvania Central,
the Pennsylvania Railroad Cos., and
Baltimore & Ohio Railroad, with
Philadelphia, New York and Balti
more, are the Northern powers,
competent to do any thing they pro
pose.
The cities of Cincinnati, St. Louis,
Louisville and Nashville are the
Western powers, if there be any.
These are subsidiary to the North
ern.
There is no prospect of any resort
to the Southern power. This will
appear by considering the following
proposition:
The contest is now waging between
the Southern and the Northern pow
ers, to decide who shall carry the
Southern products and the through
freights. The former means, cotton,
and the latter means, freights from
the Pacific. And what shall be their
destination l ..
The grand movement of the North
ern power now is, to run their trains
down into the cotton region, by as
many lints as needed, carry the
merchandize for the South, and take
the cotton and wheat without
breaking bulk, and discharge them
in Baltimore, Philadelphia and
New York. To do this, that power
must have railroads through this coun
try, as we are between them anil cot
ton. Their interests, therefore, are
to build these roads, and it is our in
terest to have them built, for local
I benefit. Coming down South, with
j trains for cotton, these Northern
powers tap the Southern Pacific Rail-
I road, and thereby bring their through
freight from California by Southern
roads to their cities, and never break
bulk. And, to be sure of transporta
tion for it aft, the Northern power has
already three different lines. There
is no limit to the means of this pow
er.
On the other hand, the Southern
power has no interest in building
railroads through this region, looking
North, since every dollar they invest
in that aids their competitor.
And, as to means, they find use for
all they have and can get to start
lines of ships from Southern ports di
rect to Europe, taking their freights
from through cars, discharged on ves
sels, and carried direct to Europe,
and give the Northern cities the go
by. This is their fearful alternative.
Hence we have no prospect of
railroads here going east, by depend
ing on the Southern power. Our de
pendence is on that of the North,
because it is in the channel of their
interest.
Mark A. Cooper.
GREELEY OR GRANT.
We hear some Democrats say that
they will abide by the action of the
Baltimore Convention, provided it
does not endorse the Cincinnati nom
inees. That is to say, they will abide
by it in case it does exactly what they
wish, and under no other circumstan
ces. This is all very unbusinesslike,
and comes more from passion than
sober thought. Granting that Gree
ley is one of two evils, be is certainly
the choice of the two. A man com
pelled to either put his hand in the
fire and suffer it to be consumed, or to
cut off two fingers of that hand, would
undoubtedly select the latter course.
Men who talk of not voting for Hor
ace Greeley under any circumstances
may live to regret their action. We
hardly think that a man can be found
who having advocated the secession
of the South from the Union will say
at the present time that he does not
regret the stand he took on that ques
tion, without at all admitting, how
ever, that he was not right in the ab
stract. But results have demonstrat
ed that the effort to carry out the
principle brought incalculable misery
upon the Southern country. The op
ponents of Greeley, in the Democratic
ranks, are occupying an analogous po
sition with the secessionists of twelve
years ago, and in a stubborn effort to
carry out a pet principle may bring
about results equally as disastrous.
Opposition to Greeley means the re
election of Grant and the re-election
of Grant means the continuation of
the system of despotism and military
rule under which South Carolina,
Louisiana, and the Southern States in
general have been groauing since the
close of the war, while the election of
Greeley signifies the supremacy of the
civil authority and the restoration of
local self-government to the States
without interference from the Feder
al Government. Democrats, which
will you select? Grant’s re-election,
next November, will, in all probabil
ity, secure him a life-long lease of the
Presidential office, with power to
trample upon every right of the South
and to set at naught every principle
of justice. Do you desire this ? Then
oppose Greeley. The great mas3 of
the Southern people will have a bit
ter rembrance of you in the days to
come.— Augusta Constitutionalist.
GRANT’S MINIONS AT WORK INCAN
ADA--DR BRATTON, OF SOUTH CAR
OLINA, KNOCKED DOWN AND KID
NAFI’ED BY FEDERAL DETECTIVES.
The London, (Canada,) Advertiser,
of the 7th inst., has the following ac
count of the kidnapping in that place
of Dr. Bratton, of Yorkville, S. C., by
Federal detectives. Dr. B. was one
of the men marked down for arrest,
and, upon the oath of a vagabond ne
gro on the charge of being a Ku-Klux
leader when martial law was declar
ed in South Carolina, had sought ref
uge in Canada. The Advertiser says:
A prominent Southern gentleman,
lately from South Carolina, Dr. Rufus
Bratton, who had lately taken up his
residence in London, was knocked
down on Waterloo street, in the
northern part of this city, at about 4
o’clock in the afternoon of the 4th
inst., by a United States detective
who has been dogging him for some
days, assisted by some other persons
employed by thexletective. Dr. Bratr
ton offered an ineffectual resistance to
his assailants, and was finally over
powered and placed in a cab and driv
en rapidly away. He has since been
heard of in the United States, whith
er he was taken under the influence,
it is supposed, of chloroform. It is
believed that after his forcible capture
here he was carried off and placed on
board the evening express at some
neighboring station of the Great Wes
tern Railway. Dr. Bratton’s friends
here assert that he has been guilty of
no crime, and that he has been taken
away for political reasons only. How
ever this may be, and no matter of
what crimes he may have been guilty,
his removal in this manner, without
warrant or authority from our laws,
is an outrage which calls for the
promptest action.
We find the following special tele
gram, dated Washington, June 14,
in the Savannah News:
Forney’s Press, in this morning’s
issue, admits that if the Baltimore
Convention endorses the Cincinnati
nominees and platform, the situation
becomes gravely critical, and says
that Grant’s party has need of all its
strength in the contest.
HOW HORACE STANDS.
Greeley, as far as the delegates are
elected to Baltimore, foots up two
hundred and seventy-three, with on
ly thirty-one againt him. Some of
the shrewdest politicians in this city,
who have all along opposed Greeley,
admit that his chances now seem, be
yond the hope of opposition, to beat.
WHAT THE SIMPLETONS SAY.
The Grant papers are already boast
ing of carrying Georgia by a large
majority against Greeley, and there
by securing the ascendency of the
Republican party in that State, and
claim to have assurances that lead
ing Georgia Democrats will openly
espouse Grant in case Baltimore en
dorses Greeley.
An Atlanta correspondent of the
Macon Enterprise makes this com
ment on Judge Stephens’ speech :
“ A noticeable feature of the address
was that all its powers of eloquence,
logic, bitterness, and scourging were
aimed at the Greeleyists, while barely
a word was uttered against Grant, or
against those who support him. It
was remarked that this was a very
singular feature of the address.”
TIIE KU-KLUX LAW IN ALABAMA.
Grant’s Ku-Klux law is grinding
away its terrors in Alabama- We
set' that the following sentences have
been pronounced: Neil Hawkins,
ten years in the Albany, New York,
penitentiary; R. J. Young, ten years
and $5,000 fine; J. D. Young' ten
years and $5,000; Reuben Young,
seven years and $2,000
Let those who prefer the tender
mercies of Grant’s rule cling to it;
but for as we shall hail longingly re
lief from such oppressive tyranny,
even though it should come through
the Liberal Republicans. If a Demo
cratic cannot give us freedom, God
forbid that we should be mad enough
to reject it because it comes through
the instrumentality of a Davis, whom
our straight friends can support, or a
Greeley whom the other Democrats
can support. —Atlanta Constitution.
That’s So. —The nomination of
Senator Wilson as the tail of the Grant
ticket recalls an incident in his histo
ry, which occurred in Georgia. Du
ring the delivery of a rampant Radi
cal speech in Atlanta, in 1867—the
points of which were reported at
length for the Advertiser at the same
time—this same Senator Wilson spoke
of Gen. Toombs as “ the bold and ar
rogant Toombs, who sought other
Climes, as did other leading men of
the South after the surrender.” A
bystander freedman, said to have been
a former slave of Gen. Toombs, re
plied at this juncture: “If Massa
Bob was here he’d knock the scalp off'
ur you in five minutes.” This laugh
was with the negro. —Monroe Adver
tiser.
Complimentary to Ben Hill.—
At the conclusion of Hon. B. 11. Hill’s
address in Atlanta, the Hon. Robert
Toombs was called for and responded
as follows:
“You have heard one of the most
eloquent, one of the grandest addres
ses that you will ever hear in favor of
Greeley. Ileis en titled to the thanks
of this country. Go home and con
sider it. It was clear, eloqent and
impressive. lam against Greeley,
but at the same time you have got
the best of the case on his side, and 1
call for thrree cheers for Mr. Hill.”
Responded with a hurrah.
In the Baltimore Democratic Con
vention, last Thursday, the Greeley
men succeeded in electing their fa
vorites to the State Convention.
Jeff. Davis says he doesn’t much
care who is President, but he is going
to vote for the ass who spoke to Bail
him.
It is thought that the new wheat
crop of Northern and Central Texas
will reach 1,000,000 bushels-—three
times the amount ever before raised
in one season.
In the United States Court, at
Montgomery, Ala., on Saturday,
Judge Busteed confirmed the sale of
the Alabama and Chattanooga Rail
road, and issued an order to the as
signees in bankruptcy to deliver the
road to the State authorities.
A dispatch from" Paris, dated June
7th, says: “The Journal Officiale
announces that the total damage sus
tained by the city oi Paris at the
hands of the Commune will reach
five hundred million francs.”
Mr. Greeley’s opponents are trying
hard to make capital against him
with Democrats by quoting his record
in by-gone years. They will have,
their labor for their pains, because
Democrats are supporting him for
the principles he now represents and
not on account of what he said or did
when issues were before the country
that have been settled.
Voorhees was interviewed by a
number of Greeley delegates as to his
position, and promptly and heartily
responded that he never was a disor-
and if Mr. Greeley is nomi
nated at Baltimore he will support
him.
"""The Norfolk Virginian says: “ Our
Western friends are anxious to move
the capital of the United States to
the Mississippi Valley; but from
present appearances it seems more
likely that Long Branch will be the
place.
Turkey has a standing army of
700,000 and but a fraction less than
the Russian army.
The New Wheat Crop.— The
Knoxville Press and Herald says:
“ The reports from all parts of East
Tennessee agree in representing the
present harvest of wheat one of the
largest that has been gathered in this
section of the State, and the quality
as fine as was ever grown on the soil.
There have been only a few transac
tions yet in this year’s product. Mr.
P. M. Williams, of this city, has pur
chased for early delivery, say Ist of
July, a few choice crops at one dollar
and fifty cents per bushel. Another
large and very choice lot was sold,
delivery optional with producer, at
$1 55. This was purchased for mill
ing puposes.”
The Boston Courier, an able Dem
ocratic paper, says of Mr. Sumner’s
recent effort: “Every sentence of
the great speech, from the strikingly
apt quotations selected for the title
page to the dignified and dispossion
ate peroration, bears the unmistaka
ble impress of truth. From this con
viction there is no escape, and wliere
ever this first gun of the campaign
against Grantism is heard, it will
have effect. Mr. Sumner’s latest, and
in many respects his grandest public
effort, has lessened the army of Grant’s
supporters by tens of thousands.”
A Beautitul Simile.— While
Father Ryan was speaking not long
since in Mobile, before the guests of
the Ladies’ Memorial Association, he
made use of the following words. In
pointing to a heavy bank of clouds
just rising in the west and obscuring
the setting sun, among which a vivid
lightning was incessantly playing, he
said:
“As yon sun goes down behind a
dark cloud, so went down the hopes
of those engaged in the unequal
struggle for Southern liberty; as you
now see the lightning flashing and
blazing athwart that cloud, so leaped
the bolts of hate and persecution.
But behind that cloud the stars are
still shining, just as the star of hope
is still lighting up the hearts of our
people; and as the sun will rise again
on the morrow, so shall eventually
rise up in ail its splendor the down
trodden and partially obscured cause
of right and justice.”
