Tll E EAG LE. *. I’ridnj Morning, .lime 2*, IS7S. .1. K, HEI)U INIS Editor Maj. 11. ( kenhuir.i letter is rneetiDg with general favor with the press of the State. Do not fail to read the article “or ganiz'd Democracy,” on onr first page. It is clear, forcible and to the point. The Ohio Democrats are in coun cil. They lead off every year and the country generally follows, sooner or later. The Independents are growing more mild. They find that the cloth is too small for the garment they are at work on. It now looks as if the European complications w’ould soon be adjus ted and the threatened war post poned, at least for a time. Mrs. Jenks it would seem, is a di rect dependent of the celebrated Captain of the same name, who is credited in song with mixing beans with corn for horse food. The Mexican border is not alto gether as quiet just now as it might be. If the “foolishness” down there isn’t stopped, Mexico will be “Ameri canized” at an early day. The Georgia State Dental Associa tion will meet in Atlanta Ga., on 2!Hh of July. The profession are all invited to bo present and partici pato in the proceedings. The European Congress as yet, has made but little progress in its work of adjustment. If, is kept un der cover, but the real point is, is to whether Russia or England, or both together, shall administer on Tur key . When an agent is to bo selected to transact our business wo had much sooner risk the judgment of sixty sterling solid citizens who have a interest with us, than that of one seeking the appointment though he may be unanimous. Our pooplo should bear in mind that uext Tuesday is the time for se lecting delegates to the Congression al Convention. Let the people turn out, take Urn matter in hand and se lect pure and true mou who will faithfully represent their interets. In the late Democratic State Con vention of North Carolina the princi pal interest was the contest between the friends of (lov. Vance ami Sena tor Merrimon, in which tho former triumphed. This indicates the elec tion of Vance to tho United States Senate. When Dill Arp and Col. Langston (the member from Franklin) met in Gainesville Wednesday, it brought forcibly to mind the stormy days of tho confederacy and more particu larly tho saving of tho two pairs of archives, when Milledgevillo was evacuated. Brother Hockenhull, Chairman of th Democratic Executive Commit tee, of the Ninth, blows the right kind of a bugle to his party. Al though Mr. Speer is quite sarcastic and humorous as to this gentleman, his late address will do good and be hard to counteract. —Griffin News. Another wonderful cave has re cently been discovered near Glasgow Junction, Ky. It has been explored for a distance of twenty-three miles in one direction and sixteen miles in another direction. It is larger than the Mammoth Cave, and has three rooms in it. Six mummies were ex humed. In the last campaign, Emory Speer was an independent candidate be cause, as he said, the counties in the district were unequally represented in the convention. He cannot have that excuse now, for if wo understand Mr. Hockeuhnll’s circular a change has been made. But Emory will be a candidate nevertheless. —Atlanta Constitution. The New York Sun says this year only about twenty Congressmen celebrated the close of the session by getting drunk. This is a great im provement on the good old times. But twenty druuken antics in the chamber of the House of Representa tives, are just twenty too many, and tbo constituences will do well to reduce tlio number at the next elec tions. Politically everything in this dis” trict is ns favorable as could be de sired. The disorganizes have been making herculean, but misdirected efforts to excite and enthuse, but the thing would not work and as might have been expected a collapse fol lowed. The people are quietly pre paring to select a standard-bearer and when this is done they will elect him by an overwhelming majority. Mr. Watterson of the LouisvilH Courier-Journal and Hon. Abram S. Hewitt are having a spirited contro versy about who is responsible among the Democrats for the sue cess of the electoral commission. Watterson says ho did, and Hewitt says he didn’t and there the matter stands for the present with the blood a little heated and another commis sion in Bight. The Democratic majority on joint ballot in the Oregon Legislature turns out to be twelve. It is gravely asserted that the Mormons are at the bottom of the concentration of hostile Indians in Idaho under Buffalo Horn ami Ban nicky Jim. The whole movement is said to have been planned by the Mormon priesthood who publicly proclaim that the Indians are the lost tribes of Israel and thousands of them have been baptized into the Mormon faith. A Massachusetts court has sen tenced Chase, the defaulting treas urer of one of the ruined Fall River cotton mills, to twelve years' impris onment in the penitentiary. This is a severe sentence, and it falls upon one who a few months ago was at the top of the social ladder in* his baili wick—living in splendor and sur rounded by all the indications of a substantial affluence. The Republican papers of the country are greatly troubled over the position occupied by Gen. Benj F. Butler of precious (?) memory to the good people of New Orleans during the war. It is thought he is preparing a grand scheme for the demolition of the leaders of the Re publican and Democratic parties, that he may stand some chance of being made President by the Nation al party. Let’s see, “Butler.” That don’t sound right. He will never be President. Yes, Hall county has 1908 voters and is only entitled to Ihe same rep resentation in the Congressional Convention that Towns is, with only 500 voters. But then Hall in a law making body—the House of Repre sentative of the State of Georgia—is only entitled to one representative the same as Union. Well this may not be fair but then such men as Robt. Toombs, Clias. J. Jenkins, A. R. Wright, Gen. Wofford, Gen. Gar trell, and our own Moses Brian, and Martin Grayham have said in the Constitution it is right, and we agree with them. The representation in onr Convention is fashioned after this law end we presume the people will ratify tho action of the Executive Committee by the same rousing ma jority that, was given the Constitu tion last fall. True Independence. If a person unacquainted with the true political history of the niuth district, was to form his opinion of the situation from the blatant clarn orings of the so-called Independents, he would conclude that the great body of its voters were a set of gal ley-slaves led about by a few politi cal autocrats and schemers, and that everything like freedom of thought and of action, as well as manhood were wholly wanting iu tho mass of the people, when in fact, nothing is further from the truth. It the peo ple of this district have one charac teristic more clearly marked than all others, it is their individuality.— Their habits, education, modes of thought, and the very air they breathe all conspire to develop this distinctive trait, and any intimation that they have been, or could, led about by a set of political schemers and tricksters is a slander upon their character, which we repel. That the organization of the Democratic party in the district is defective wo freely admit, and that some things have been done in the name of the party that should be condemned none will deny, but with these defects, to mar its symmetry, its friends have abundant reason to be proud of its history. It has al ways beeu the party of the constitu tion and the people, and instead of oppressing any or abridging their rights, it has always favored the most enlarged freedom of the citizen con sistent with its duty to society. This principle has been kept in view in its teaching and discipline. The high est test by which any measure or party can be tried, is results. When weighed by this standard how dots the Democratic party of the niuth district stand ? This issue can be met by Democrats, not only with complacency but with emotions of pride and exultation. Take each of the standard bearers selected by the organized Democracy since the war and try him by the severest test and he will at least come up to the stand ard of a good average representative of the people. No one has proved incompetent or false to the trust confided to him by the people, but ou the contrary each and every one has served his constituents with fi delity and ability, reflecting credit upon himself and honoring his dis trict, State aud section. This much as to the results of or ganization in our own district. Now when we come to examine the man ner and mode of selecting these standard bearers, while there have been irregularities as we are free to admit, still these have not worked to the oppression of the people or to the abridgement of their rights, even in the remotest degree. If so we would be obliged to any one to name the time, place and the circumstances under which it was done. A single instance cannot be given, however informal aud irregular it may have beeu, which iu its results affected iu any manner the rights of the citizen. And all this loud talk about Hugs, cliques and tricksters, is the merest bosh and clap-trap intended to cie-1 ceive and mislead the unwary. In the face of these facts, and they are matters of history, why it may be asked, are these so called Inde pendents continually talking so ve hemently about rings, tricksters and schemers and call so frantically upon the people to rise and crush them out? The answer is, that when the Democracy of the District meets in convention there will be present as representatives of the people over ; sixty of her most prominent citizens ! whose great aim will we to subserve j the best interests of the country, arid whom these disorganizes well know from sad experience, cannot be j coaxed, blarneyed nor forced to rec- j ognize the claims of those whose . . j chronic ambition and greed for of fice has led them to attempt the vain but futile task cf disrupting the Democratic party of the district and of riding into powtr upon its ruins- The Democracy of the ninth dis trict fully recognizes the fact that it wa9 through organization, unity and harmony that Georgia was rescued from the 1 auds of the despoilers and law and order restored to the people of the grand old commonwealth, and now' when through the same means, they are on the eve of regaining full control of the General Government, they do uot have the remotest idea of relaxing their labors, or of com promising witii ibeir until the w’ork is fully accomplished, and constitutional government restored to the people in every nook aud cor ner in this broad land. MINES AND MINING. r.Y WM. W. HABEIiSHAM THE RESOURCES OF N. E. GEORGIA. In reply to the numerous letters which wo are receiving, fi\,m parties inquiring about the advantages of immigrating to Georgia, we pro pose to give a 8} uopsis of the min eral and other resources of our Stale, and to leave it to them to decide, if it will be to their advantage to seek homes in this portion of our common country Within the past ten years Georgia has, Phcaaix like, risen from the ashes of the late conflict, and now stands foremost among her sister States in the race for the supremacy. She is admired by tho entire world, as an example of what may be ac complished by indomitable preser vance, and a do'emanation to do right in all things, and under all circumstances. Her people are to day law-abiding, and ready to take part in everything having a tenden cy to promote the general interest cf the community. Were it uot for the natural advan tages which Georgia possesses over other sections of tho Union, she would uot at this time have attained the enviable position she now occu pies, and her sons would be wander ers upon the face of the earth, in stead of being occupied as they are> in “putting their shoulder to the wheel,” and in striving bv hard work to overcome obstacles, aud to become independent. The stranger who visited Georgia immediately after tho late war, aud observed its disastrous effects, is sur prised to find upon the return, after an absence of only a few years, the evidences of prosperity which are everywhere apparent, and naturally concludes, that such a people may bo forced to yield, but that they can never be conquered. Persons who contemplate immi grating, should consider well, before they attempt to carry out so serious an undertaking. The desire of change, so prevalent in the human mind, is one of greatest causes o* misery to mankind. It is very tlifli cult to be content with our lot, and until vve have acquired the experi ence of frequent changes, we are unable to appreciate the many bless ings and comforts of a home, “be it ever so humble.” Iu affording information with re gard to tho resources of Georgia; we can only reiterate what we have before set forth, viz: That the re sources of Northeast Georgia uilbr to capitalists a fleld for investments with such prospects of profits as have rarely been presented. With the outbreak of the late war, mining, with all kindred industries ceased in Georgia; but under the influence of returning peace, it has started into new life, with a vigor aud strength of capital unknown in early days.— During the past few years, old com panies have returned to their work with enlarged means, while new com paues have entered the promising field with abundant capital. The result of recent mining opera tions have beeu such iu this and the adjoining couuties, as to give abau j daut assurance, that our most san j guine calculations upon the mineral j wealth of Northeast Georgia have j been below the fact, and that it re- I quires but skilled aud persevering industry to make this mineral sec tion one of the most famous of the continent. The climate of Northeast Georgia :is as salubrious as any on the face of the earth. The Appalachian range here extends and changes its course from Northeast and South west to East and West, and while it breaks the force of the bleak north winds of winter; the cool breezes from the mountains moderate the summer heat, and renders this sec tion a most delightful resort fox per sons residing on the Sea Coast. . While emigrants from the Northern ■ States will find comparatively little frost or snow to impede farm work iu winter, they will experience no de bilitating heat in simmer. The water is generally pure free stone, and of such temperature iu summer as to dispense with all need of ice. In nearly every neigh borhood there are springs contain ing iron, sulphur, magnesia, and other minerals, to which invalids from other sections resort, and by whose medicinal properties they are restored to health. Every variety of soil may be found here. The well 1 watered valleys are very fertile, while there are productive lauds at all elevations, even to the tops of the mountains. For excellency and variety of tim ber, this section is probably unsur passed. \\ itil an abundant supply of material, aud its innumerable wa ter powers unutihz id and unappre ciated, Northeast Georgia offers most I attractive inducements to the wood manufacturer. The princioal cereals are produced with comparatively little labor.y- Vegetables aud fruits grow almost spontaneously. Frequently a bale i of cotton is produced to the acre. I Both the climate and the soil seem I peculiarly ad ipted to the production of tobacco, and its culture is :ctarded only by the laws which embarrass its sale. Nothing but want of transporta tion facilities has presented this sec tion from being thickly settled long ago. Since the completion of the Air Line Riilroad, numerous villages have sprung up all > long its course, as if by magic, and are constantly growing, while the rural population is advancing with equal progress. When the roads now in course of construction are completed, there will evidently be a rapid influx of population amt capital to this desira ble region. To our friends who are desirous of immigrating, we would say come ! you will be cordially re ceived and onfoitained; and vve trust tho numerous advantages which our State possesses, will induce you to make your homes iu Georgia. . -w-, r.^^mjWMKmtimiameassmaßa mW ADVERTISEMENTS.
