THURSDAY .MORNING, JULY 18,1873
Public illootlng.
Pursuant to call, a number of
the voters of l’ulaski county
assembled nt Wimberley’s Hall, in
llawkinsvillo, on Saturday, 13th inst.,
for the purpose of electing delegates
to attend the State Convention at
Atlanta on the 26th inst. and organi
zing anew Executive Committee, for
the county. ,
Col. C. C. Kibbco, was on motion,
elected Chairman of the meeting, and
Geo. P. Woods requested to act as
Secretary.
On motion, Capt- R. IT. Anderson,
C. C. K'bbee, S. W. Brown and
James E. Boothe were elected dele
gates to the State Convention with
privilege to appoint alternates.
The next business in order was the
election of anew Executive Co.nmit
lee for the county, the terms of office
of the old Board having expired*
Upou motion, Col. C. C. Kibbee was
re-elected President of said ■Commit
tee, and L. C. Ryan, Esq., A ice-I’res
ident.
Upon motion the President and
Vice-President were empowered to
appoint upon said Executive Com
mittee one member Irom each
militia district in the county.
The Chairman then addressed the
meeting at some length, setting foi ill
the duties of all good citizens in the
approaching Presidential election,
and advocating acquiescence in the
action of the Democratic National Con
vention, and unanimous support of
its nominees.
Gen. O. C. Horne followed with a
few appropriate and well-timed re
marks, after which the following res
olutions were offered and adopter!
with but one dissenting voice :
Resolved, That whilst we do not
approve the action of the Baltimore
Convention in accepting the Cincin
nati platform, and nominating a can
iidale from the Republican ranks as
'..ire standard b/arer of tire Democrat
ic party, yet, that we deem it the du
ly of all good Democrats to acquiesce
n that action, and sacrificing indi
vidual prejudices and wishes for the
sake of harmony and unity of action,
to energetically address ourselves to
tire work of securing the election of
the nomiuees for the purpose of de
feating the present iniquitous admin
istration.
Resolved, That it is the opinion of
the Democratic party of Pulaski
•ounty, that the approaching Presi
dential campaign is one in which the
contest is not of men, hut «f princi
ple ; that the issue is not between
Greeley and Grant as individuals, but
(•ctween civil government and a mil
itary autocracy; it is between the
freedom of each State to promote the
well being of its own citizens by such
means as the judgment of its own
people shall prescribe on the one
hand, and federal subversion of the
internal polity of the several States
<»n the other; and it is between a
hoped for honest administration of
the government by wise and capable
men, and its administration by the
dirty tools of a corrupt and partisan
faction.
We, therefore, believe it is the con
stitutional duty of all good citizens
loooHijieratc together for the secure
ment of a true, beneficent and nation
al reconstruction and a complete ami
entire change in the policy of the
government. #
Resolved, That the administra
tion of our State affairs by his Ex
cellency, James M. Smith, meets our
hearty approval, and without in
structing our delegates to the Stale
Convention to vote for his re-nomi
nation, we recommend them so to do.
On motion, the meeting ad
journed.

Let Ua all Vote 'Togi-ilier.
There will be found on the first
page ot this issue of the Dispatch
the most important part of the pro
ceedings of tlie Democratic National
Convention, held jn Baltimore last
week. Horace Greeley was nomina
ted for President by a vote of GB6
against 33, and Grutz Brown, of Mis
souri, received quite an unanimous
nomination for Vice-President. The
Liberal Republican platform was
adopted with tut few dissenting
votqs.
The Presidential contest is now 1c
tween Grant and the Radical party
on one side, and Horace Greeley and
the Democratic and Liberal Repub
lican parties on the other. It is a
contest iu which the Southern people
should neither remain neutral nor
hesitate in their choice. Greeley is
for us—Grant is against us. Greeley
has pledged himself in favor of civil
over military authority, whereas
Grant has maintained bayonet law in
tiic South, and should he be rc-e! vo
ted will perpetuate it iu all its most
obnoxious features. Wc have only
to look at the condition of South
Carolina, whosu cil’zens have been so
oppressed and outraged with the
aboiuiunbic Ku-klux law, that they
are now the most enthusiastic of any
people for the election of Greeley,
and dethronement of Grunt.
Georgia sent to Raitimorc her tru
est aril ablest men—brave men, who
could not be led astray by corrupt
influences. When we mention the
names of Generals Gordon, Benuing.
Colquitt, Wright, anel Cols. Uar
tridge, Hardeman, Goode and others,
who were among our delegates to the
Convention, and cast their ballots for
Greeley and Brown, could anything
more he said to awaken our people to
a sense of their duty ? They were
elected by our State Convention, and
went to Rultimore nntrnramelcd—free
to vote as they chose. In this ca
pacity they acted for ns, and wc
should now go with them
individual preferences should Ik?
forgotten, and an unanimous (if not
willing) support given the Presiden
tial ticket. Like drowning men, wc
must take any uisisiance offered us,
even it comes not from our best
lricnds.
Well Said.
When we rein -mber lio>v strenu
ously the Savannah Republican op
posed the nomination of Horace
Greeley by the Democratic Party,
when such act’on was timvlv, we
can duly appreciate its magnaniinious
surrender to the majority in >w that the
Convention is over, and the noble and
dignified course it promises to pursue
in the coming contest. Our eolem
|K>rary says :
Wc would state, fill tiler,'that we
do not feel called upon to enter into a
.defense ot our consistency in sup
porting the nominees of the National
Democratic Convention. They come
to us witli tin- approval of a vast
majority of our political friends—the
true friends of the South—iu every
i part of the Union, and whatever may
| have been our preferenc.-s, wc in
! tend, when the war comes, to be
I lound iu the camp of our friends
neither neutral, nor within the ene
my’s lines.
Whatever Mr. Greeley «nay be—
and lie is pledged to sustain Demo
cratic views i;: every essential par
ticular—wc feel that by voting for
him with tho only patriotic and con
stitutional party in existence, wc
shall be serving our country far more
acceptably than by helping with our
neutrality to prolong the reign of
usurpers and tyrants.
Caors in Southwest Georgia.—
Tuc Americus Republican says;
“Having just returned from a trip
through a large portion of Southwest
Georgia, wc are gratified to state
that the corn mul cotton crops arc
particularly promising. We con
versed witli a number of intelligent
and trustworthy planters from vari
ous sections, who gave the most flat
tering account of the growing crops.
The general impression is that they
have uot hail for the last ten or fif
teen years at this date, anything like
so promising a crop. We also learn
from similar sources that there has
Iwen at least a third more qorn plaut
ed in some sections than for
merly.
It is reported that an intrigue is
on foot to remove Jennings, the At
lanta internal revenue man, and have
W. L. Scruggs appointed. Jennings
says the place is worth only $25,000.
It is also wliisjiercd that Farrow is
going back on Markham, and is work
ing for the nomination for Governor
by the Rads.
Several kind hearted gentlemen
have very kindly come forward and
otrered themselVes as candidates for
county offices.
Den Hi or Hon. Linton Stephens.
We are deeply pained to learn that
Hon. Linton Stephens died at his
residence in Hancock county, last
| Sunday evening, at 5 o’clock, of con
gestion of llic bowels. The case wes
i a very sudden and severe one. He
was attacked during the day on Sat
urday, at his office, nnd went home
witli some of his friends, suffering
great agony and snyirg at that time
that unless lie should obtain speedy
rcl.cf, lie should die. His physician
| was enabled to give him speedy re
, lief, but a second attack on Sunday
afternoon terminated as Mr. Stephens
predicted. We learn that Mr. Steph
ens met his fate with great compo
sure, and remarked tiiat he was ready
and Milling to die.
Thus has passed from earth one of*
the ablest men Georgia lias ever gree
ted as son, and one whose every im
pulse and aspiration was for her
honor, her rights and her welfare.
As friend nnd relative -he was
almost faultless, liis devotion to his
brother, lion. A. li. Stephens, was as
strong, and tender, and constant its
ever stirred even a loving woman’s
heart, and to liis friends lie was
bound by bonds forged in the fire of
hearts that cannonized him witli a
genuine unswerving nflrclion that
lew men ever inspiic.
lie filled many positions of public
trust and always ably ami* faithfully,
hut only one at all commensurate
with his ability and deserts : that of

lint lit’* Majority In 1808.
In 18G8 Gen. Grant received 3,244,-
583 votes and Horatio Seymour 2.-
f>08,125. Grant's net popular mapF
ity was, therefore, 336,358. A calcu
lation in the Tribune shows that Geu.
Grant received 52.76 per cent, of the
popular vote and Seymour 47.24
Grant's majority being 5.46 per cent,
of the total vote cast. A change of
three votes in the hundred would
therefore have given the popular ma
jority to Seymour. This shows on
what loutish foundation Grant’s ma
j jrity stands* The Tribune, com
menting on the electoral tote, says :
Turning to the electoral vote, it
wilt be seen that the 22 Republican
States (so classed in Table No. 2)
cast 231 votes in the Electoral Col
lege, and the 15 Democratic States
cast 135 votes. So the opposition
have hut to gain New York and
Pennsylvania, holding their own in
other Slates, to give them 199 elec
toral votes against 167 for Grant.
Then Democratic minority in the
former Stale is Imt 2.7 I per cent.; in
Pennsylvania it is 3.19. In 1869
nnd 1870 the Democrats carried New
York ; and in Pennsylvania the Re
publican majority was less in each
year than in 186*8 and 1871. Should
the opposition carry New York,
Pennsylvania and Indiana, they may
afford to lose Nevada, Oregon and
New Jersey, and still have 184 elec
tor.' 1 votes against 182 for Grant. A
more favorable (but still reasonable)
estimate might lie made for the op
position that commencing with Illi
nois, and going downward through
Table No. 2, they could lay claim to
24 Slates, or 260 electoral rotes.—
This should exclude Florida, where
the carpet-baggers have the Legis
lature. Sucli a classification would
leave Grant 15 States, with 106 elec
toral votes.
Since 1868, the Democrats have re
duced the majority against them by
134,431 ; and the Republican major
ity,has lie. u attenuated iu neatly
every Slate by the unpopularity of
the administration and the ruinous
and corrupt policy of the Washing
ton managers. For instance, in Oc~
tober, 1868,%te Democrats had the
small majority of 961 in Indiana; the
Republicans had over 9,000 in the
November following, but by 1870 the
Democrats had readied a majority of
2,558. Texas, which was classed as
a Republican State iu 1369, re-appeura
in 1871 witli a Democratic majority.
So with Missouri, wh oh gave a ma
jority of 25,883 for Grant in 1868,
hut in 1870, brought out a Liberal
majority of 41,917 iu a total vote of
166,625.

sional Executive Committee was held
nt the Capitol litis morning nt 10
o’clock. lion. Samuel J. Randall,
who was recently elected Chairman
of the Pennsylvania Democratic State
Committee, resigned 'his position t»s

Messrs. Casserly, Beck, .Marshall
and other prominent Democrats. A
conference took place between this

Republicans. Preparations were
made for tho immediate publication

Tclfait’• Poet.
Some gushing, loke-stricken youth,
over whom a dream of bliss lisa
passed, pours forth a plaintive melo
dy in the following verses, which
come to us from the village of Cobb
ville, in Telfair county. The author
withholds his name from us, but
appends liis initials to the bottom
verso, which will no doubt lead to his
detection by some of our subscribers
in the vicinity of Cobbvillc. We
might state that years ago, when the
editor of the Dispatch first felt the
electric spark of love kindle in his
bosom, a dose of catnip tea relieved
him of ail danger, but wc are too
humane, at this advanced period of
our existence, to prescribe such a
remedy for any of our young friends.
The verses below carry us bac!: to
tiie “good old days.’’ Read them :
I love you ! yes, tlie warm file blood
That in these veins of miue doth run
Should in one red, unbroken flood
Gusli from my heart for one.
I love you—love the very air
That lans your cheek or waves your
tress —
Tlie glove your little Imnd doth wear,
’fliu earth your little feet do press.
The rose that decorates your head,
And every shrulPsuil every flower
That are bruised by your gentle tread,
Aie sweeter from that very hour.

Atfjournnicnl of Pulaski Supe
rior Court—Humorous Scene.
Hog Level, July 6, 1872.
Editor llawkinsviUe Dispatch:
A short slay in your town is only
necessary to find what a genial,
warm-hearted class of citizens you
have. Warm hearts every ready to
greet tlie weary traveler, often re
lieve us of tlie monotony so naturally
attending the stale, business world.
Your people are not alone as a
class a clever |>eoplc, (the world uses
this term) but it seems that the mem
bers of your bar arc an open-hearted,
social and agreeable band of gentle
men, us evinced by a scene witnessed
upon tlie adjournment of the Superior
Court on the evening of the 4th inst.
It appears tiiat just before the Court
was adjourned some misunderstand
ing arose amongst tlie members of
thq bar in regard to some suspicious
conduct of one of their number, of
such a character as led them to fear
tiiat the imputation might rest heavy
on tlie craft. Not being disposed to
submit, a Rule was drawn, requiring
this suspicious brother to show cause,
&c. The Rule was answered, but
satisfactory cause not having been
shown, the Court (indignant) deter
mined to enforce the Rule and pre
serve the unsullied reputation of t’.e
fraternity—refused to hear argument
or explanation, and amidst the ex
citement growing out of this unfortu
nate affair, this attempt to punish a
contempt, tiic entire Bar was found
iu contempt. Whereupon tho Court
ordered the entire Bar, with officers
of Court, into tlie custody of tiic
Sheriff, without bait or main prize;
whereupon the Court adjourned and
in obcdicnee to -the order upon tlie
Rule (which covered all the Bar) tlie
entire batch of offenders were march
ed ofT to cooler quarters, which
were found at the Dn g tore of Falc
At Cos., wiicre tiic order of tlie Court
was executed in due form.
Occasionally one of the culprits
Would flinch, (not wink) hut the effi
cient Sheriff, knowing the fondness
of his prisoners for Rule, held each
square to the Fount until the torture
became intense, when he took them
to Dykes’ and held them until he
made them smoke fumes, which set
tled around liis olfactories. This be
coming unbearable, he vanished, and
his prisoners escaped—each to liis
quarters. As remarked, no man
winked, therefore none were tight,
except, [lerliaps, some article of dress
which may have grown rather small
upon an officer of court.
Perhaps some member of the Bar
could give a more accurate descrip
tion of what transpired than
Scribbler.
Capt. Wm. Hughos, of Liberty
county, has a field of rice in excel
lent order, over three feet high,
grown on land where most people
thought corn could not be raised.
Upiuud rice will grow and be fruit
ful, but yet the grain does not pos
sess the sweetness and taste of the
lowland article.
Generals Benning, Colquit and
Gordon, and lion. Julian Hartridgc
have been requsted by the citizens of
Atlanta, each to speak apiece on the
|>olitical issues of the day, in that
city at such early time as will suit
their convenience.
A Kansas Citj widow rejected a
suitor the other day. The forlorn
lover revenged himself by getting the
widows’ little son dead drunk.
What a Citizen of Telfair thinks
of Bbeep«Bienliug and llic
DopLsw.
As wc extend nil classes the right
of an expression of their opinions
throtffeh our paper, wc give place to
the following letter from Telfair:
’ Cobbville, Georgia,>
July 5, 1872 )
Editor Haw 'cina ville Dispatch:
In a late issue of your paper ap
peared an article advocating a dog
law in the Shocp-raising counties.
The people of Telfair have but little
use for such a law. The lynch law is
tiic law wc want. A feif persons liv
ing in this county are a great deal
more fond of mutton than the poor
dogs. Sheep tare but middling in
our locality during sheep-shearing
time. Some of the rogues like wool
better than their dogs like the meat.
Iu fact, tiic dogs do but little damage
in this vicinity, their character is far
better than their masters’. I have it
from a must reliable source that one
man in <hc comity, who.never owned
a sceep in his life, sold sixty pounds
of wool this season, and lie keeps
plenty of fresh mutton on hand
besides. The question is, where
does lie get ft, or is lie an advocate
of sheep-stealing ?
It is tlie opinion of some of our
citizens tiiat the time wifi soon come
when an honest man will-not own a
sheep in the county. I regret to
make use of such an expression, but
the times seems to require it. In a
short while 1 think I will give you
a general history of a flairs iu the
county.
Yours, with greatest respect.

New Orleans ICuai’il of Trad .-.
New Orleans, July 6, 1872.
To the President and Hoard af Di
rectors of the New Orleans C\ton
Exchange :
Gentlemen Wo beg leave to
submit, without comment, tiic fol
lowing report of the growing crop of
cotton, made up by us fro.u replies
to our interrogatories during the
month of June:
Mississippi.— Wc have numerous
letters from this Stale. In a few
counticr planters complain of unfa
vorable weather since the 15th of
May, and some imperfect stands, but
nearly all our correspondents repott
tlie former as much more favorable
Ilian lust year, and tlie latter ns being
very fine. Taking the average of
estimates, wc find that nb >ut 45 per
eent of tlie crop, owing to long con
tinned dry weather, did not come
up until after the 20„hof May. The
present condition of crops is gener
ally excellent, and with a favorable
and late full the yield is ex|>ccled to
be “a full average."
Louisiana —The weather, accor
ding to ail of our correspondents, has
liecn, since the 15th of May, very
favorable nnd much more so when
compared with last year. Fully one
third of tlie crop is reported not to
have come up until after the 20th of
May. Stands are said to be gener
ally good, thoug’ii iu some of the Par
ishes on tlie Mississippi river, where
a considerable portion came up lalei
this is said to be not iu n very good
condition. With good seasons, and
Into fall, an average yield is looked
for. Worms have apiieared in small
numbers in tlie Parish of Natchito
ches, and as is usual on their first
appearance, have done no dam
age#
Texas.— Replies to our interroga
tories from this State, date from 15th
to 28th of June. Weather has been,
since 15th of May, very favorable to
the growth of the crop, and much
more favorable in comparison with
same period last year. The percen
tage of late planting in the State is
very small, say 5 per cent, and cot
ton was generally up iu time. Stands
and present condition are said to he
very fine, and the prospect is, with
an average fall, that a full average
crop will be gathered, while with a
late fail and favorable season appear
ances indicate tiiat a very large crop
will be made. Worms arc reported
to us in tiic counties of Upshur, Lib
erty ind Jefferson, but no injury to
tlie crop has yet been done by
them.
Arkansas.— ln this State the
weather has been, since 15th May,
very wet nnd unfavorable, beaty
washing rains baviug fallen through
out ihe entire State, making the sea
son this much less favorable for the
growth of the young plant than last
year. The stands and condition are
represented as “not very promising,”
the plant being ‘’small, backward and
in the grass,” the wet weather hav
ing prevented the proper working of
the same. We have reported as
planted late 35 per cent, and about
40 per cent, .os not having come to a
stand before the 10th May. Our
correspondents say that even with
an avetage fall, less than average
crops must be made, while with fa
vorable seasons and late fall no
mere than an average can be ob
tained.
Tennessee. —From this State our
correspondence dates from Bth to 21st
Jane, and the large majority report
the weather since 15th May as favor
able, and as mere favorable to the
growing cop than same period last
year, with very good stands, and gen
erally in good condition. About 15
per cent, of the cotton was planted
late, and about 20 pur cent was late
in coming to a stand, which is re-,
ported to have been perfected by 15th
of May. Pros|>ects are promising in 4
this State for a full yield with an av
erage fall and seasons, and for a large
yield with favorable fail and good
seasons.
Alabama. —ln this State, accor
ding to average of estimates sent ns *
by over forty cometidents, there
v as about thirty per cent, of the crop
planted, which did not come up until
after the 20th of Mapr. In twelve
counties the late planting is reported
not to linvc come to a stand before
the Ist of June, although the weath
er since tlie 15th May is very gener
ally reported to us as- having been
very favorable and seasonable, and as
much more favorable when compared
with the same date last year. With
an average fail our correspondents
look for a full crop, while they say,
“should tlie seasons be favorable anil
tiic fall late, a large crop may be ex
pected.” m
North Carolina.— Our reports
from this State date from 14th to 20th
June, tho weather since 15th May is
represented ns having been generally
favorable, though less favorable, when
compared with the same date last
year. Stands and condition are gen
erally reportod as good, thsuqli in
many parts of the State os small and
backward, about oue-third of the crop
was planted late, and a small in- *
crease over this, say forty per cent
was late in coming up, which on an
average came to a stand on or about
the Islh of May. With a favorable
fall a full yield is expected.
South Carolina. —Our letters from
this State are not very numerous,
ami date from 17th to 26th June.—
The weather lias been dry, baton the
whole more favorable than last year,
since 15th May. Ouc-lialf of the
crop in this State was planted late,
and did not come up until ths 15th
May. Stands and condition are said
to be, 011 the whole, good, though in
some places small, but clean and
hbnlthv, and our correspondents are
led to believe that with an average
fall an average crop will be made,
and tiiat a late fall, with good sea
sons, will give this State a full yield.
Georgia. — By the letters of our
numerous correspondents in this
Slate the weather, siace the 15th of
May, is represented as having been
generally dry nnd hot, nnd to have
been much more favorable to the crop
than at same period last year. They
report as planted late in this State
one fourth of the crop, and one-third
as having come up late, say from the
20th to tiic 25th of May, nnd in some
lew counties stands from the late
planting were not secured until after
the Ist June. The reports ns to
stands and the present condition of
the crops vary, hut, on tlie whole, are
considered good, and witli an aver
age fall a fair yield may be acticipn
ted, while with favorable seasons and
late fall a full crop may be expected.
FijOß'OA.—Our report? from this
S ate are meagre, dating from 15th
to 24tii June. Weather has been
very dry and hot since 1 sth May, and
compares favorably witli seasons
same time last year. Ten per cent,
of crop planted late which eaine up
übout 25th May. Stands and present
condition reported as generally good,
and witli average fall and seasons a
full yield is anticipated, while with
favorable season anti Into fall a large
crop may be exacted.
