I>cniocmUe Meeting in Itich
raond County.
The Constitutionalist,of the3oth
instant, gives an interesting and
extended report of the proceed*
ings of a large ami enthusiastic
meeting of the Democracy in Au*
gusts. The meetiug was presided
over by l>r. Win. E. Dearing, and
speeches were made by lion. Lin
ton Stephens, Gen. A. R. Wright,
Henry W. Hilliard, 4. C. C. Black
and Maj. Barnes.
Judge Stephens oocnpies about
the same ground with Hon. A. 11.
Stephens. He is strongly iu favor
of a straight Democratic nomina
tion at Baltimore. He regards
Mr. Greeley as more objectionable
than Grant, and he will not vote
for him. He closed by saying,
“the Democratic party had every
reason to expect a great victory
if they put a straight out and out
Democrat in the field.”
The other speakers *ll diffeied
with Judge Stephens. General
Wright, in the course of his
speech, said :
If they could carry IVnusylva
nia, Ohio and Illinois with the aid
of the Liberal Republicans he whs
certainly in favor of Greeley.—
But could Greeley do this V This
leniained to be seen and would lie
known pretty certainly by the
time the Democratic Convention
met. While they might not be
nble to defeat Grant with a Demo
crat, they might do so with Gree
ley. He preferred not the man
who had been his bitter enemy,
but who now when lie was op
pressed stepped forward to his aid.
Greeley had -aid he was in favor
of sustaining local self-govern
ment. That was what they want*
ed. Greeley was opposed to the
suspension of the writ of habeas
corpus. Greeley was in favor of
the supremacy of the civil over
the military. What more did they
want? Grant was the first man
who had asked for the suspension
oi habeas corpus, not Greeley. lie
was not there, however, to defend
Greeley, lie was certainly in
favor of Greeley as opposed to
Graut. Pat four years more of
Grant's tide against all the line
notions of State Rights, then say
which \va * preferable, lie did not
propose to renounce their princi
ples, but to lay them aside for a
time, until they could get rid of
the present corrupt rule. The
election of Greeley would virtu
ally be a complete overthrow of
Radicalism. If they were suc
cessful now, although it would not
l»e a complete Democratic victory,
it would be a great thing gained.
If they coalesced with the Gree
ley wing of the Republican party
tliey would secure a majority in
Congress, certainly in the House
of Representatives. Ho proposed
to try to keep the red-hot Demo
mats quiet uatil after the action
of the Democratic Convention at
Baltimore. He proposed (o stick
by the platform of resolutions just
adopted. [Great applause.]
Mr. Hilliard and the other speak
ers occupied about the same posi
tions.
Wc copy two of the resolutions
adopted which clearly indicate the
views held by the Dcmociacy of
one of the most intelligent counties
of the State.
Resolved, That the reforms most
desired by the Democratic party
are local self-government, the sub
ordination of tho military to the
civil authority, the preservation
unimpaired of the writ of habeas
corpus, and the checking of
the centralizing tendencies of
the Fidcral Government; that
all other subjects of political
contention are insignificant in
comparison with these ; and that
to attaiu these the Democratic
party will accept any other, pre
serving, ho we* or its own organ
nation.
Resolved, That what wc have
retained of civil liberty we owe to
the Democratic party; that the
*»plit iu the Radical party is due
to the unceasing warfare of the
Demociatic party upon the usurp
ations and corruption of the Radi
cal Administration; that with
these proofs of its vitality aud
power, aud with a partial victory
iu its grasp, it would be guilty of
criminal fully should it disband.
It should preserve its own organi
zation independent of all other
political parties, and fight under
>ta . own banner; not disdaining,
hotrever, such, temporary alliances,
dictated by wisdom ami, justified
by honor, as will secure even a
partial trinuph otherwise impos
sible, of the great principles for
which it contends.
The following gentlemen were 1
appointed as delegates to the
State Convention : Geo. T. Barnes
James Garduer, A. R. Wright. J.
B. Cumming, C. Snead, W. S.
Clark, Geo. G. McWhorter, Adam
Johnson, J. J. Cohen, John I’hin

Fa mi tea's Club, Gwinnett Comity, ) I
Jane 1, 1872. J
The club met this day, at its reg
ular monthly meeting, and was
called to order by Major T. 11.
Mitchell, Vice-President.
The death of Samuel Martin,
Esq., a member of this club, hav
ing beeu announced, a committee,
consisting of R. D. Winn, E. J.
McDaniel and Thoma 9 E. Daniel,
was appointed to report suitable
resolutions as a tribute to the
memory of deceased.
The committee retired, and after
a short absence reported the fol
lowing resolutions:
Whereas, The Farmer’s Club, of
Gwinnett county, has just heard
of the death of .Samuel Martin, one
of its first members, and one of
the founders of this Club, who de
parted this life yesterday at 3
o’clock, at an advanced age, like a
shock of corn fully ripe.
And, whereas, We feel that a
vacuum is thus created in our Club
that can never be tilled, and our
hearts are made sad by the solemn
event, and we feel that it is fit and
proper that some slight testimonial
should be given of our high appre
ciation of liis worth as a citizen,
as a friend and neighbor, and es
pecially as a valued member of
this Club, therefore,
Resolved, That we have heard of
the* death of our fellow member,
Samuel Martin, with profound re
gret, and arc pained to think that
! his counsels amongst us shall be
1 heard no more forever.
Resolved, That the members of
“The Farmet’s Club, of Gwinnett
county,” who survive him, will
ever cherish for the memory of our
deceased fellow member the high
est regard—for liis personal worth,
for his wise counsels and his un
tiring zeal in the welfare of this
Club; and for the advancement of
“an improved agriculture” among
our people.
Resolved, That we tender hereby
to the aged partner and tile family
of our deceased fellow member our
sincere and heart felt condolence
for their sad bereuvement and for
the loss tiny have sustained by
this sad event.
Resolved, That a copy of the
preambles and resolutions be sign
ed by the President and Secretary
and forwarded to the family of our
deceased fellow member, and that
they be entered on the Minutes of
the Club.
lu moving the adoption of the
resolutions, Major R. D. Winn
said :
Mr. President: In offering the
resolutions, 1 should do viiHeuce
to my feelings to let the occasion
pass without giving expression
to the emotions of my heart for the
death of Samuel Martin. He was
the friend of my childhood, of my
early manhood, and was still tnv
fricud when the lengthened shad
ows of my days are extending far
down the western declivity of time.
1 knew him well; I knew his
faults and 1 knew bis generous
nature, his good impulses, his
kindly proclivities, aud his fealty
to his friends. A more faithful
frieud than Samuel Martiu I never
knew.
He was one of the chief origin
ators of this Club. At ita first
meeting he was present, aiding in
its organization, and supporting
by hij presence and counsel its
early, tottering footsteps. Upon
his motion I was honored by being
made its first President, although
1 was absent from indisposition at
the time. •
At our monthly convocation he
w-as always present—though of
advanced ago, of feeble health—
cheering and encouraging us by
bis presence and supporting and
assisting us by his advioo. In all
our de'iberations and discussions
ho was a wise counsellor and iu
letesied us iu his long aud exten
sive experience in agriculture.
But his cheerful face will greet
us uo more at our monthly meet
ings. Ilis genial countenance will
appear uot again at our periodical
gatherings, ilis wise admonitions
and instructions will be extended
to tills Club no more forever. He
has passed away and has left a
vacuum in onr Club that can never ;
be filled He is guue from time,
and the grave, ere to morrow's suu 1
shall set, will contaiti all that is
mortal of Samuel Martin in its
cold aud narrow house. I move
the adoption of the resolutions.
In secluding the motion, Mr.
Hiomas E Daniel said :
Mr President and Gentlemen of
the Club: Great violence would be
done to my feelings, were I uot to
add to our fricud’s feeling an
uounccmeut of our sad bereave
ment a few remarks on the afflict
ing occasion, I have not enjoyed
so long as many of juu the great
pleasure of the acquaintance of
our lamented brother and fellow
member. Only two short and :
bright summers have past since
first 1 met Mr. Martin; yet, the
time was sufficient for forming an j
ardent liiendship and lasting affec
tion for that singularly preposes- i
sing gentleman. 1 knew him only '
to love him. His frank disposi
tion, benevolent deportment, man
ly bearing and gentlemanly man-,
ners, presented a character so ami
able as irresistibly to seize upon
anil possess our best affections —
yea our ardent attachment. lam
grieved, indeed, to hear that he
has gone ; but we hope and believe
while wo feel that liis death has
caused in our society a vacuum
which cao never be filled, that
our loss is his eternal gain.
In further seconding the resolu
tions, Mr. Eli J. McDaniel said :
Mr. President and Gentlemen of
the Club: In seconding the resolu
tions just offered, I will say. I en
dorse all that has been said by the
speeches just made. Our deceased
brother was indeed one of the chief
supporters of this club. His name
was the first upon the list of mem
bers, end he contributed ns much
success as any of its most
zealous members.
When its members were dull
and withont interest and spirit,
his presence and his talk always
tevived and cheered ua, and no
member did more to enliven our
meetings than he.
But unerring fate has called him
from onr midst to meet with us no
more; and we feel that our loss
can scarcely be supplied. I sec
ond the motion for the adoption of
the resolutions.
The resolutions were then unau
imoudy adopted. It was on mo
tion further resolved that the res
olutions and addresses of Messrs.
Winn, Daniel and McDauiel be
published in the Gwinnett Hekai.d.

The Macon and Knoxville
Kail road.
We publish an exceedingly inter
esting letter in another column, ft mu
h highly respectable and well in
formed source, setting forth tlie most
feasible line for the location of this
road, which ranks all other enter
prises iu importance to our city.—
The graphic description of the agri
cultural and mineral wealth of the
intermediate country, will strike
many with surprise. With such
local feeders, aside fiotn the transpor
tation of the immense through
freights of tho West, no project could
offer stronger inducements to capi
talists.
Macon must open up this new
avenue of trade, which happily can
never be fianked. if she would hold
her own agaiost the new railroayl
lines which, when completed, will
exert a most damaging effect upon
her prosperity.
In a recent conversation with a
leading merchant in the .grocery
trade, lie slater! that though as an
investment the stock of ihe Macon
and Brunswick Railroad was worth
but little, yet as an artery of com
munication with our city, that enter
prise had contributed vastly to the
benefit of Macon. He had been
paid many times over for the stock
subscribed for, by the new tiade
which had flowed into his establish
ment from points on and near the
line of that road. Indeed, the his
tory even of non paying roada will
show, that though unproductive to
stockholders, yet as developers of
the country they have been greatly
beneficial, by enhancing the value of
land, increasing the population, ad
ding to the revenues of the State
from taxation, and civilizing and im
proving the people.
The Macon and Kcoxville Road,
however, will not only do all this,
but rapidly build up onr city and
enrich iu stockholders at the same
time. Our citizens are disgusted
with the contentions between the
rival parties who have each a charter
to construct this great and
feel that it is high time that they
should either fuse their interests and
go to work in earnest, or one give
way and let the other prooeed with
the undertaking. Let us have union
and concert of action, based upon a
fair compromise between the con
flicting parlies.

ML, PRF.ELEy’s REPLT.
Xaw York, May 20, 1872.
Gentlemen—] have chosen not to
acknowledge your letter of the 3d
instant, until I could learn how
the work of your Convention was
received iu all parts of the coun
try, and more, whether that work
was approved and ratified by the
mass of onr fellow-citizens. Their
response from day to day reached
me through telegrams, letters and
comments of journalists indepen
dent of official patronage and in
different to the smiles and favors
of power. The number and char
acter of those unconstrained, nn
purchased, and unsolicited utter
ances satisfied me that the move
ment which found expression at
Cincinnati lias been hailed by a
majority of our country as the
harbinger of a better day for the
Republic 1 do not misinterpret
tins approval as especially com
plimentary to myself, nor even the
chivalrous and justly esteemed
gentleman whose name I thank
your Convention for associating
with mine. I receive and welcome
it as a spontaneous and deserved
tribute to that admirable platform
of principles wherein your Con
vention so tersely, so forcibly set
forth the convictions which im
pelled, and the purposes which
guided its course; a platform
which- casting behind it the wreck
and rubbish.of worn out conten
tions an<| by gone feuds, embodies
in fit and few words the needs and
aspirations of to-day. Though
thousands stand ready to condemn
your every act, hardly a syllable
of criticism or cavil has been aim
ed at your platform, of which the
substance may be fairly epitomiz
ed as follows ;
1. All political rights and fran
chisee. which have been acquired
through our late bloody convul
sion, must and shall be guaran
teed, maintained, enjoyed and re
spected evermore.
2. All political rights and fran
chised 5 which have been lost
through that convulsion should
and must be promptly restored
aud re established, so that there
shall be henceforth no proscribed
class and uo disfranchised caste
within the limits of the Union,
whose long estranged people shall
unite and frateruize upon the
broad basis of universal amnesty
and impartial suffrage.
3. That, subject to our solemn
constitutional obligation to main
tain the equal rights of citizens,
our policy should aim at local gov
ernment aud not centralization;
that the civil authority shall be
suprame over military, the habeas
corpfts should be jealously upheld
as the safeguard of personal free
dom; that the individual citizen
sliould enjoy the largest liberty’
consistent with public order, and
there shall be no Federal dictation
of the internal policy of the seve
ral States, but that each shall be
free to enforce the rights and pro
mote the well being of inhabitants
by such means as the judgment of
its own people shall prescribe.
4. There shall be a real and not
merely a stimulated reform iu civil
service of the Republic, to which
eud it is indispensable that the
chief dispenser of its vast official
patronage shall be shielded from
the mean temptation to use his
power selfishly by a rule inexora
bly forbidding aud precluding his
re-election.
- - That the raising of renenue,
whether by tariff or otherwise,
shall be recognized and treated as
the, people's immediate business,
to be shaped and directed by them
through their representatives iu
Congress, whose action the Presi
dent must neither overrule by bis
veto, nor attempt to dictate or
presume to punish by bestowing
office only on those who agree,
and withdrawing from those who
do not.
6. That the public lands must
be sacredly reserved for occupa
tion and acquisition by cultivators
and not recklessly squandered on
the projectors of railroads for
which our people have no present
seed, a::d tho premature construe
tion of wliicli is annually plnnging ;
the United States into deeper and
deeper abysses of foreign indebt
edness.
7. The achievement of those
grand purposes of universal be
neficence is expected and sought
at the hands of all who approve
of them, irrespective of past affil
iations.
8. The public faith must at all
hazards be maintained, and the
national credit preserved.
9. The patriotic devotedness
and inestimable services of our
fellow citizens, who. as soldiers or
sailors upheld the dag and main
tained the unity of the republic,
shall ever be gratefully remem
bered and bonorably requited.
These propositions, so ably and
forcibly presented in the platform
j of your convention, have already
fixed the attention and command
ed the assent of a large majority
of our countrymen who joyfully
adopt them as the basis of a true
beneficent nation*! reconstruction,
of a new departure from the jeal
ousies and strifes and hates which
have nj longer an adequate mo*
live or even plausible pretext, in-
to the atmosphere of peace, fra
ternity and mutual good will. In
vaiu do the drill sergeants of de
caying organizations flourish me
chanically their truncheons, and
augrily insist that the files shall
be closed and straightened. In
vain do the whippers-in of parties,
once vital because rooted iu the
vital needs of the hour, protest
against straying and bolting, and
denounce men in no wise their in
feriors as traitors and renegades,
and threaten them with infamy
and ruin. lam confident that the
American people have already
made your canse their own, and
resolved that their brave hearts
and strong arms shall bear it on
to triumph. In this faith and with
the distinct understanding that if
elected I shall be President not of
a party but ol the whole people,
I accept your nomination iu confi
dent trust that the masses of our
country, North and South, are
eager to clasp hands across the
bloody chasm which has too long
divided them, forgetting they have
been enemies and joyful in the
consciousness that they all remain
brethren.
Yours gratefully,
Horace Greeley.
Mysterious Disappearance. —On
last Thursday morning a shoema
ker by the name of \Y. C. Nelson,
at Stone Mountain, had a personal
rencontre with two negro men
named Millard and Ambrose Ma
son. Nelson struck one of them
with a rock. About three o’clock
that evening Nelson left homo to
go to Veal’s Mill, on Mountain
Creek, some two and a half miles
distant, He was seen to pass old
Mrs. Goldsmith’s about a half or
three quarters of a mile this side
of the mill. Since then lie lias not
been seen by any one. He did nut
go to the mill. The citizens ot
Stone Mountain have been very
much excited over the sudden and
strange disappearance of the man,
and for three days searched the
woods between old Mrs. Gold
smith’s and the mill, without find
ing any trace of the missing man.
The mill poud was drained twice.
The section around the mill is wild
and ragged in the extreme. High
hills, deep gorges and impassable
bogs abound. A pine stick was
found on the side of the road
which apparently had been used
to inflict a blow upon something.
Two hairs were found sticking in
a crevice (shivered by the blow)
which were pronounced to be hu
man hair from the head and beard
of a hnman. The hair is said to
resemble that of the deceased. —
The stick was identified by Mrs.
Nelson ss the one her husband
went off with. Millard and Am
brose were arrested and lodged in
jail to await a preliminary exam
ination to morrow. Millard states
that he and Ambrose were ditchiug
that evening, and that Ambrose,
between four and five o’clock that
eveuing, went off into the woods
and was gone for some time. The
next morning he says be remarked
to Ambrose to “Let’s go in and See
Nelson,” as Ik didn't wish to have
hard feelings about the scrape.—
Ambrose replied that he had seen
Nelson the evening previous and
that be would not bother either of
them any more. Ambrose cries
and prays all the time. A report
comes from near Decatur that a
man answering the description of
Nelson passed there on Thursday
evening between dinnertime and
five o'clock. Nelsou is a shoe
maker by trade, about 40 years of
age, 5 feet 4 inches high, light
hair, swarthy complexion, and not
very bright.— At. Constitution.
