tHR PHJLOMIIIV OF TUP
(iREELGI HOVRMEXT—
KEXTITKI 'S IF<
POSITION.
* Our coteriiporary of the Athena
Watchman in a recent issue. is nut in
an article strongly com:i ending the
readoption, by the Democracy if the
Union, of the timnstr us heresy of
Greeleyism. As we have said before
we say again, that we thought il any
thine was generally admitted by the
Democracy of Georgia. it was that the
“ Greeley movement " or New De
parture ” so called, was a blunder
never to be repealed It seems, how
ever, that there are some among u“
who still cling to that error, and can
not profit by the crucible of experiment
One defeat and disaster under a
false lead is unt sufficient to satisfy
them
Our neighbor of Athens says that
Mr O roe ley declared in favor of “local
self government or State Rights.” and
somewhat to our surprise the able
editor of the Atlanta News, while com
menting with great force against the
general tone of the Watchman t nrti
clc, and guarding the people against its
teachings, says :
“This wc admit, but our cotempornry
altogether forgets that this declaration was
made, subject to the last amendments to
tbe Federal Constitution, which admit of
only the semblance and not the reality of
State Rights.” ■
Now we think the Vries was a little
too hasty in his admission Mr. Gree
ley’s declaration was not “subject”
alone “to Ihe last amendments to the
Federal Constitution ” It was “subject”
to the entiie Constitution, as well to
the provisions of that instrument be
fore, as after the fraudulent and bayo
net adoption of those latter so called
amendments, Mr. Greeley's language
was, “subject to our constitutional ob
ligations to protect the equal jights.
Ac.” lie ever held that the govern
ment of the United States was a con
solidated government He did not
hold it to be n Federal government —
one created hy the States—-at all. He
held it to he a centralized govern: cut
with absolute sovereignty in the Oen
w am vrfrr Tli'H VF?T TFOP’
the Central Government, and this he
heid to be the case from the beginning—
from the Declaration of Independence—
even before the original Constitution
was formed. The truth of history is
exactly the reverse—all the powi-rs of
the general government were tier Led
hy delegation from the States. Mr.
Greeley’s declaration in favor of
“ local self government—State Rights"
was, th it (“subject to our constitu
tionul obligations to protect the equal
rights of all," Ac..) our polity oxujht to
he. to allow tbe States to perform the
functions of local self government so
long', and so long only, ns they may do
it consistently with what tlie Supreme
Central authorities may think right and
proper. Hi- declaration and creed
gave the controlling power in all cases
whatever of life, limb or property to
the Central Government. Under bis
declaration and doctrine the States
should, as a matter of policy merely, be
permitted to govern themselves as they
plea**, only so long as they consent to
govern- themselves as it may please the
Central authorities at Washington—
this is the philosophy nf^Greeleyism—
a consolidated empire. So far from
his declaration having been made “sub
ject to the last amendments," ami
framed in view of them, the fact is, it
was most manifestly made to cover,
justify ami sanction all the usurpations
ol Congress, by which these latter
amendments had been carried by fraud
and force of arms. The Southern
States, after the war for the Unit n was
over, and after they had, in pond
faith,, resumed their relations to the
Federal •Government, still claimed the
right, under the Constitution, to regu
late all their internal domestic polity
as they pleased—that is, they claimed
the right of “ local sell government”—
this the Philosophy of Grecleyism ’’
utterly denied. According to its man
dates the States wei.c n t to he restored
to the Union under the Constitution,
hut to be reconstructed, and made to
exercise such powers of •* local self
goverrient,” and only such, as it
might please the Central Head tr.ost
graciously to permit; and to exercise
these doled out privileges too, only in
such way as the CetW.al Head may
preserve The Hidosopby of Gree
leyism ” so far as it relates to the prin
ciples of “local self government and
State Rights,” is identically the saute
as the philosophy of Lord Northisin
towards the colonies in 177<>. And it
is to be hoped that if this Radical
Piocstrosity in political principles is to
_ •
be presented again, in the issues £>t the
centennial contest of 1870, it will be
consigned to the same infamy by the
“ sons of liberty ” of this day as
North ism—its prototype —waa hy theii
sires a hundred years ago. In view of
.hat coining civil conflict, upon which
such momentous consequences depet and,
the Democracy of Kentucky, in theii
r. cent State Convention has sounded
the right key-note. It is with pleasure
amt joy we give it to our readers. It
was unanimously uttered by that body
and is in these words:
“ We hold it to tie absolutely essential to
the preservation of the liberties of citizens
that the several States shall lie maintained
in all their rights, dignity and equality ns
such, complete and inalienable, and that
the administration of their domestic con
cerns is the surest breastwork against nnti-
Republican tendencies.
“ Every attempt on tbe part oT the Fed
eral Government to exercise a power not
delegated to it by 1 lie Constitution, or to
exercise delegated power in a manner not
therein prescribed, is an act of usurpation
demanding the instant and unqualified
Condemnation of a people zealous of their
liberties.
“ And we hold that any unconstitutional
interference hy the General Government
with the local affairs of any State to any
extent, on any pretence whatever, should
lie at once repudiated and condemned hy
all classes of every section of the Union,
as all such acts tend directly to the de
struction of our Federal system and tbe
consolidation of all power in a centralized
despotism."
There is a platform, short but com
prehensivc. In it, is not to be found a
-inule trace of the “ Philosophy of
Greeleyism ”1 nt its every word line
and sentence is all aglow with the
“ Philosophy of the Constitution ” and
those great fundamental principles
upon which ail American Free Institu
tions rest; and upon which alone they
can be maintained and perpetuated.
This is a platform, the same in princi
ple, as that erected by the Georgia
Democracy in 1870. It is wide enough
long enough, and strong enough for
every Democrat and every friend of
Constitutional Government in the
Union to stand upon, and upon it the
lihnties of this country can be rescued
in 1376.

AMI I>o\ PLATT.
lion. Win. D. Kelley, a very notor
ious Radical Congressman of Pennsyl
vania. has recently been on a visit to
Florida, is known that quite a
breach too* place between him and
pause bis views of policy upon tnc su’ -
jeet of a general inflation of the cur
rency wero not approved and sanctioned
by the man at the White Nouse
Much has been said in the papers
every where, of a report made bv him
since his return home, upon the staje
of things South ; and specially of the
deep regret expressed in that report ni
>is having voted for the Force Rill ai
the last session of Congress. What
ean it mean ?, has been a general in
quiry. It is not our purpose to ex
plain the puzzle. Rut it so happened
tlut this sudden and unexpected
change of base, by this distinguished
Radical leader, was made a very short
time after Mr. Latnar of Mississippi,
according to an Atlanta IferaJd re
porter, indicated it as the policy of the
Democratic party, next year, to run as
their candidate for the Presidency
some Radical, who is oppogod to Grant
—sot It as Rlaine or Charles Francis
Adams It is true Kellev was rot
on his li-t. Who knows, however, but
that this cute Pennsylvania politician
scents another coming “tidal wave;"
an'l is losing no time in pu’ting him
self in position to ho the “ lucky man "
when the Democratic Convention be
gins their strife in choosing for their
standard hearer between the most
noted chiefs of the Radical camp? If
they took Greeley from the g-eat State
of New York why might they not tak l '
K'd!ey from the great State of Penn
sylvania whose great iron interests con
trol this Key Stowe” in the arch of
the Union ? “As goes Pennsylvania
so goes the Union,” is an established
Tact in the past history of the Govern
uient.
Whether thin is the solution of
the matter, wo do not know, and, as we
have said, it is not our purpose now to
timlerttUie any solution ol it. We only
intended to present our readers with
the spicy comments of Don Platt of the
Washington Capital upon the subject ;
and to present them with his views ot
this policy of the Democracy's taking
up Radicals as their standard bearers
His general viewsnre thussummed up—
which true Democrats would do well to
heed in time :
“ Now this thing's got to be stopped.
That is not good grammar, but it is solid
fact. It is not necessary to make a tact
grammatical. A disagreeable fact seldom
is grammatical. Now there s the Hon
Pig-iron Kelley, a very disagreeable fact,
and he is never grammatical. And it is
precisely on the Hon. Pig-iron that we
want the thing stopped. When the tidal
wave fetches upon us drift-wood and dirt
i toa dirty to mention, the tidal * get* l
be disagreeable. The last lot, in the shape
of ourolJ friend Pig-iron, that came loom
ing down on us, was entirely too much.
We felt that our time had come to join the
Grant party and go in for Ottesarism. Not
that we love Grant more, hut Pig-iron less.
We cannot train with the ancient Pig. We
feel premonitory symptoms of a bolt. If
the lion. I’ig persists we will be driven to
joining the Icicles under Adams or the Al
coholics under Grant. It isa painful alter
native, hut we can stand any sort of prin
ciple but Pig-iron. Pig-iron principles
would be worse on us than the Kidwell
Bottoms, the ehimes, or navy revolvers and
cannon-headed sticks ”

FELTON.
The Savannah Neics is very decided
in its disapproval of the sentiments
expressed by Dr. Felton to an inter
viewer of the Atlanta Herald, upon the
-object of nominating conventions, etc
The comments of the News are guar ’ed
hy the qualification “if” the senti
ments “ alleged ” to have been uttered
by Dr. Felton were actually expressed
as reported—this qualification was very
proper; for no man should be held
rcspon-ible for words reported to have
been spoken by him, either in conver
nations or public addresses. Owing to
the great difficulty of giving just such
force and meaning to language as the
speaker intends conveying, it fre
quently happons that inaccuracies ati-e
in such reports, and we have got to
that point where we accept as true,
nothing from any public man. except
what comes authoritatively from him
self.
In relation to this reported inter
view, however, we have a word to say,
and with the same qualification as that
of our cotemporary of Savannah
While we fuliy concur with the News
upon what Dr. Felton was reported to
have said of nominating conventions,
yet. thee was another part of that in
terview which we greatly regretted to
.-ce We refer to what the Dr. was re
ported to have said about tbe wi.-dom
of •• the Greeley movement.” We art
slow to believe that Dr. Felton was cor
reetly reported on that matter. It is
entirely inconsistent with what we have
heietolore uuderst od to be his posi
tion on that question, while it is like
wise inconsistent with that degree of
statesmanship and inflexible adherence
ti> principles which we supposed char
acterized the new member from the 7 1 h
District.

SKETCH OF HIS UFE.
John Cabell Drcckenridge was born
near Lexington, Ky , January 21.
1821. He was educated at Centre
College, Danville, studied law at tbe
Transylvania Institute, and settled at
Lexington At the breaking out of
the Mexican war he was elected Major
of the Third Regiment of Kentucky
Volunteers, but had little opportunity
for active service. After the war he
was elected to the House of Represent
atives of Kentucky, and in 1851 was
chosen to Congress, and in 185-5 was
re-elected after a violent and protract'd
contest. During the first session of
the 33rd Congress, in the course of the
discussion of the Kansas-Nebraska bill,
he was invo lt%d irt a personal alferea
(inn with Mr. F. B Cutting, a member
front New York, ieading to the prelim
inaries for a duel, which, however, did
not take Upon the accession of
President Pierce he was offered the
Ministry to Spain, but declined it. In
1856 be was elected Vice-President in
conjunction with Buchanan as Presi
dent. In 1860 the disunion delegates
in the Democratic National Convention
having separated from the supporters
of S. A. Douglass, nominated Mr-
Breekenridga for President, and he re
ceived the electoral votes of all the
Southern States exc-pt Virginia, Ken
tucky, Tennessee and .Missouri, lu the
same year he was elected United States
Senator.
After defending the Southern Con
fcileraey in the Senate, he went South,
entered the army, and rose to the rank
of Major Genera 1 . He was repulsed
in an attack on Baton R uge in Au
gu-t, 1861. commanded a corps under
Bragg at Stone River at the end of
and at Cltieamauga in Septem
ber, 1863, defeated Sigel at New
market in May. 1864. participated in
Early's advance on Washi gton in July
of that year, and shared in the defeat
at Winchester in September, [n Jan
uary 1865, he was appointed Cowfed
erate Scc etary of War. After the
surrender of Gen. Lee he went to Eu
rope, whence he returned in ltitiS. and
again went to Lex ington, resuming the
piaet’cc of law.
On tile palliation of Mr 11. Wynn,
in Tuckaloesa county, a few days ago,
a large cartlieoware pot containing hu
man bones was touched by the plow,
and aftewards exhumed. It contained
three skulls and other bones of very
large sixe—so large that they are be
lieved to have been the remains of •
race of which we h<nre net history.

RANDOM THOUGHTS,
Mr. Ehitor, —
A few remarks apropos fo the times
may meet your approval, and
claim a small space in your valuable
columns; and perchance the random
seed scattered in the proper direction,
utay find u lodgment and eau.e some
Wayfarer to break up tbe fallow ground
to retain them.
In this our age, we are in the midst
of events- that we have not, of late
years, beeoiitecustuuietl to, and as a mat
ter of course, not exactly prepared for;
consequently there is a disposition on
the part of poor finite man to endeavor
to look about and bunt up a refuge
from the ills that beset us upon every
side. But iu vain do we seek that refuge
—and in the inmost of our S"u!s do we
cry peace, peace, when there is no
peace. Atid why is tltis I* From t lie
simple fact, that we do not go to the
right source—we have not our door
posts and lijitel sprit.kled with Paschal
blood.
We hear various ways and means de
vised by which to avert the dispensa
tions of Providence in His visitations
upon us for our wickedness, but to our
utind. none that strike us as being at
all effectual. David says, “The Lord
reigneth, let the people tremble; let
them praise thy great and holy name,
for it is Holy ” And again it is said.
“The eternal God is thy refuge, and
lie shall thrust nut tbe enemy from
before tbee, and shall say. Destroy
them ; Israel then shall dwell in safety
alone.” Now, we would ask, is the
Church militant dwelling in safety?
Are we standing upon the walls of Zion
and aloud and sparing not !
Are we striving to guide the old ship
of Zion in the right channel? Are
we. as the chosen people of God. letting
mir lights so shine that others may be
constrained to glorify God? We trow
not. But onr lights, in the pre-ent
day. where do they shine ?—in grog
shops, hillijnl saloons, at card tables
and hail-rooms —yea. th• -y are hid there
—don’t shine and we have bee me
stun bling blocks inthewuy of sinners
We would again ask. are these effi ct
ual remedies for the dispensations spo
ke.u of? We say ir.y. But we are
commanded, a? professed followers of
the meek and lowly Jesus, to “come out
from among them and be separat front
the world.” ana “not to be partakers
in other men's sins.” Now, are we
mauds, nr aro we at our posts fighting
mightily for Iho laith once delivered
unto the saints ? Let each one put his
hand upon his heart and answer for
himself hefnre God. And as we are as
sured that 0 al “rideth upon the whirl
wind and directcfh the storm,” it be
hooves us as professed Christians to re
turn to our first love, living soberly
and righteously before Got!, and in cv
erything that we tin first ask ourselves
the question, can we invoke the bless
ing of God upon it ? and doing thus,
we will, in some small degree furnish
to the world around some little evi
dence that we are the favored people,
the people saved by the Lord ; and
then, and not till then will Zion travail
and bring forth sons and daughters
to the glory of God. and the wrath of
Him that ruleth all things he turn
ed into joy, and we become a nation
noted for our piety.

The buffalo yn.it. which is causin': so
much destructi"D among cattle in the
Southwest, is a small insect, not more
than half the size of the house fly.
which suddenly appears in the air by
millions and settles upon all four-looted
animals within reach. A horse or cow
will be literally covered with them at
night ; in the uioruino the animal will
be found dead and swelled to an enor
mous size. The bite is very poisonous,
and the wound tjuickly testers Cattle
owners find that the most effective way
of protecting their animals is to cover
them with a coating of dilut'd tar, but
if that can not be done fires are built
and the smoke drives ofl the insects

Tradition has it that years ago,
when Benjamin Franklin was a
young lad, he began the study of
natural philosophy and soon became
fond of applying technical names
to common objects. One evening,
when he mentioned to his father
that he had swallowed some tnatine
acephalous mollusks, the old man
was much alarmed, and suddenly
seizing him called loudly for help.
Mrs. Franklin came with some
warm water, and the hired man
rushed iu with a garden pump
They forced half a gallon of water
down Benjamin's throat, then held
him by the heeis over the edge of
the porch and shook him, while the
old man said. ‘ If we dotf t get them
things out of Benny, he will oe
pizened. sure.” When they were
out and Benjamin explained that
the articles alluded to were morely
oyster?, hi? father fondled him for
half an hour with a trunk strap for
scaring the family. Tradition adds
that ever afterwards Franklin’s
language was marvelously simple
and explicit.
