National Democratic Ticket.
FOR I'RFSIDKNT:
HORACE GREELEY,
OK NEW VOliK.
FOR VICE-PR ES IDENT :
B, GRATZ BROWN,
or MISSOURI.
Greeley and Brown.
We place at the head of our col
umns, this week, the names of the
National Democratic candidates for
President and Vice President. By
reference to the telegraphic summa
ry of the proceedings of the Balti
more Convention, it will he seen that
tliev were nominated by an over
whelming majority cn the first ballot,
and the platform adopted by the Lib
eral Republicans at Cincinnati last
May was adopted as the platform of
the Democratic party for this cam
paign.
Il lias been truly said, that “poli
tics makes strange bedfellows,’’ and
the truth of this old maxim has been
forcibly illustrated in this nomination,
which, although not unexpected,
yet strikes us as something remarks
ble. Six months ago, if we had been
told that Horace Greeley would be
the Democratic standard-bearer in
the next Presidential canvass, the
idea would have been hooted at ns
visionary and ridiculous. Bill so it
is—“ Truth is stranger than fiction.”
Jt might be interesting to inquire, if
we had the space, how this wonderful
result was brought about; how it
happened that a man who had fought
Democracy for half a century should
suddenly be elected as the “Moses of
our deliverance” from military des
potism and centralization.
This lias been emphatically a move
ment of the people in advance of the
politicians. Our political leaders,
North and South, were loth to give
their adhesion to this Grange phe
nomenon, but still the tide put in
motion at Cincinnati rolled on, and
ho who would not be overnhemod
must move with it. Long before the
Baltimore Convention met the die
was cast and the result of its deliber
ations was not even doubtful; and so
unanimous was the voice of the party
that there was but one ballot. This
is unprecedented in national conven
tions in our day.
Among oil.or leasons which may
he assigned for this remarkable polit
ical revolution, we apprehend that
the usurpation of power, which has
characterized Grant’s administration,
has alarmed conservative men in both
parties. The authoiitative construc
tion of the Constitution has been
disregarded; tho land-maiks which
have heretofore circutusci ibed Execu
tive power are being obliterated, and
the rights of the States, guarded with
such jealous care by the framers of
the Constitution, trampled under the
feet of military power. The habeas
corpus has been suspended, for three
years, in time of peace, and the whole
power of the administration brought
to bear to continue it in forco. Civil
rights bills and bayonet election laws
are attempted to be foisted upon the
country to keep in power corrupt
military rings. And, consequently,
the people became alarmed at this
colossal danger and, forgetting the
minor differences which heretofore
divided them, struck hands “across
the bloody chasm” and locked their
shields to drive the “money changers
from the temple”.
When the nomination at Cincinnati
was first made, Grant and Ids friends
laughed it to scorn, but it soon be
came evident that “the stone which
thebuildeis rejected was to become
the head of the corner”, and Grant,
like Belshazzar of old, will read, in
the action of the Baltimore Conven
tion, the hand-writing upon the wall,
u mtne, mene ttlcel upharsin ”.
The Macon and Cincinnati
Railroad.
We see from our Savannah ex
changes that Col. DeGraffcureiil
has re ently been in that city in
the interest of the Macon and
Knoxville Railroad, and that the
subject was brought before the
Chamber of Commerce.
That Savannah is deeply inter
ested in the construction of this
road no man can entertain a doubt
who will take the pains to exam-
jne a map. \\ liilc other Southern
cities on the coast have been ret
rograding since the war. Savan
nah has improved vastly. Her
commerce has extended largely,
and while she is on the high road
to prosperity, she must look close
ly to her Wester i connexions if
she desires to continue that pros
perity. We copy from the Adver
tiser the following editorial and
proceedings :
As a matter of general interest,
we publish the resolutions of Maj.
Henry Bryan, offered before and
adopted by the Chamber of Com
morce yeateiday. Before publish
ing the resolutions, we would
state that this enterprise is one
in which the city of Savannah is
deeply interested. The advanta
ges that will accrue to her by
largely increasing her trade is not.
to bo overestimated.
The road will pass through one
of the richest portions of the
State of Georgia, a portion never
before having a railroad outlet
for its products, which are numer
ous and rich, consisting, besides j
agricultural products and fruits!
in great quantities, varieties of;
minerals of all kinds. The coun
ties in Georgia through which
this road will pass are Jones,
Newton, Gwinnett, Jasper, Wal
ton, Forsyth, Gilmer, Dawson and
Fannin. These counties will lej
largely benetitted by the construe j
tion of this road, and their im- j
mense resources poured down the
sea coast will find its way to Sa- j
vannnh, chiefly as it is a more j
direct route, and we confidently j
rely upon the sagacity of our rail
road men to direct the tradd this
way.;
The great object now is a cheap
and quick route direct to the west.
This line seems to present the;
objects aimed at, and we believe i
it will be accomplished. Col. W.
K DeGralfenrcid is the President
of the Macon and Cincinnati rail !
road. He is a gentleman of ac
knowledged ability, and there is
little doubt that the road, under!
his management, will be pushed!
through to eomp'etion. Northern
capitalists of repution have taken
hold of the matter, and there is
every reason to believe that the
work will be completed at no dis
tant day. It only remains for
Savannah to move in the matter,
and from the following resolutions
this will be done. Tbo resolutions
of Maj. Bryan tire as follows:
Whereas, the citizens of Cincin
nati are moving to secure more
direct railroad communication with
Georgia via Knoxville, iennessee;
and, whereas it lias been proposed
to meet them by the construction
of a road from Macon, Ga., to
Knoxville, as Rrt forth in the Sa
vannah Morning News of this
date; be it
Resolved, That the Savannah
Chamber of Commerce favors the
i construction of such a road for
' the following reasons:
1. To secure a more direct trade
| wilh the'Ohio river cities, and
I furnish Hum with business with
j Europe, the West Indies and South
1 America.
2. To secure cheaper transpor
tation to and from rich agricultu
ral districts, coal fields and iron
and copper mines on the lino of
road proposed.
3. To secure the development of
a very valuable section of North
ern Georgia, which is now practi
cally inaccessible to us.
The Senator.
In this issue, we publish a commu
nication from our correspondent,
“Quis,” in relation to the next Senator
from tbe 34th District, to which we
call the attention of our readers. We
also have the pleasure of laying be
fore them the following letter from
Judge George N. Nolan, the Ordina
ry, and a very prominent attorney
and citizen, of Henry county. We
are pleased to know that he—and we
have no doubt the entire Democracy
of Henry an I DeKalb—will concede
to Gwinnett the right of suggesting
the next Senator. It has been sug
gested that the delegates who repro
sent these counties in the Guberna
torial Convention bold also a district
convention and agree upon a candi
date. We have no special choice as
to how the candidate is nominated*
after it is conceded that Gwinnett is
entitled to the nomination :
McDonougu, Ga., July 9, 1872.
Col. T. M. Peeples—
Dear Sir : The Democracy of
Henry county have been informed,
that, under the alternating rule,
Gwinnett desires to present a candi
date for the Senatorship, to succeed
Col. Candler, the present able and
faithful representative of the 34th
District.
Allow me to say to you, and through
you to our friends in Gwinnett, that
we certainly concede to Gwinnett the
right to present the next candidate,
and that the Democracy of llenry
would not be so discourteous as to
oppose the same.
I am, very truly, etc.,
Georoe M. Nolan.
The Governorship.
The friends of Gov. Smith and
Mayor James have permitted
themselves to be drawn into in
temperate and bitter discussion
in regard to the respective merits
of these two candidates. We en
ter our protest against this sys
tem of electioneering. Both of"
the candidates are clever, honora
ble, high-toned gentlemen, and
these petty personal assaults are
in exceedingly bad taste, and tend
unnecessarily to stir up strife in
the party, which we fear will not
subside when the Convention o*
the people have spoken.
The legitimate and proper ques
tion for discussion, particularly at
this time, is as to the qualification
of the aspirants; all mere person
al preferances ought to be made
subsidiary to this. It will re
quire the next four years to right
the ship which has been nearly
wrecked by Bullock and his cor
rupt crew, and to do this we must
have at the helm a man of more
than ordinary firmness and ability.
If there was ever a time when
Georgia required the services of a
statesman, a man of cool judg
ment and extensive experience,
that time is now upon us. With
the nomination of Gov. Smith for
re-election, wo think the large
mass of the Democracy of this
section would be satisfied.
Encouraging . — tVe take tho liberty
of publishing the following private letter
from an old citizen of our town. It is
not unnatural or improper for ur to feci
encouraged by receiving such letters from
our subscribers.
Decatur, Ga., July 8, 1872.
Mr. T. M. Peeples—Sir: Enclosed
you will find $2.00 subscription for tho
Herald for next twelve months. I did
not intend to let my subscription run out,
but I did. We all miss it so much. It
seems almost like we had lost an old
friend. Some of my children prize it so
highly and are so anxious for it they can’t
hardly wait for it to come. Please send
it immediately
I remain, as ever, vour old friend,
T. L. E.
For the Gwinnett lleruld.
Dear Herald: I notice, in the
Atlanta Constitution, an article taken
from your columns, suggesting the
name of Col. Sam. J. Winn for Sen
ator of the 34th District in the next
General Assembly. I sit down to
give that suggestion my hearty and
earnest approval, and I can do so the
more readily and disinterestedly, as I
am nob a citizen of Gwinnett. By
an arrangement to which our three
counties, (Henry, DeKalb and Gwin
nett,) long ago consented, this office
has been filled by the counties alter
nately. Now, Henry has had her
man, DeKalb hers, and it but re
mains for Gwinnett to speak in nom
nation, and Henry and DeKalb will
abide her action. This being under
stood, I was glad to see that men’s
minds, in your county, were turning
to Col. W. He is young and active,
to the manor horn, moral and upright;
talented, educated and refined ; brave
to chivalry and devoted to the inter
ests of his district and county. We.
dear II erald, want young men in
the Councils of State now. Once,
the fathers, more prudent, sagacious,
and reliable, were to be preferred, but
affairs have changed. This age of
progress in which we live has left our
fathers behind. At their time of life,
they love ease, smooth sailing and
quiet. They continually look back to
the old days of the Commonwealth's
prosperity, and vainly endeavor to
shape present policy by that which in
ante be.Uum times succee led. But it
won’t do. A new order of things
requires a new policy for carrying it
out, and the young men of our conn
try are the ones to whom to look
now for assistance in keeping Georgia
fully abreast the tide of progress.
Besides ihis, we owe it to our young
men who wore the Gray to honor
them now with such offices as are in
our power to bestow. Col. W., we
know, did yeoman service in the late
war, covering himself and his men
with honor and glory. Let us now
give “honor to whom honor is due”
and send him to the next General
Assembly to fill thoseat so ably filled
by Col. Candler for the last four years,
and we will see that that mantle, be-
I stowed on Col. \\ , will be bequeath
| ed to his successor as immaculate as
' it has been kept by Mr. C., which is
saying all that can be said of any
body's robe, worn in any office.

t3T A preparation so widely
and favorably known as Hall’s
egetable Sicilian Hair Renewer,
needs few words of praise from
us. This compound has won its
way to the highest favor in the
public mind; and multitudes, who
have vainly used other remedies
for the restoration of their hair,
have, on trying the Sicilian Re
newer, been made glad by the
speedy restoration of their grey
hair to its natural color, and the
thin locks thickened up, as iu the
days of early youth. It also pre
vents the hair falling out, makes
it soft and glossy, and is altogeth
er the best preparation for its pur
poses before the public.—Fitts

Baltimore Convention -- The
Cincinnati Platform Adopt
ed—-Horace Greeley Nomi
nated l»y an Overwhelming
Majority.
Baltimore, Md , July 10. —The
delegates generally were in their
seats by 10 o’clock.
A second band, located in tie
upper gallerp - , entertained the audi
ence with various airs, of which
Dixie, My Maryland and Yankee
Doodle were equally applauded.
At a quarter to ten o’clock Chair
man Doolittle announced that the
hour to which they adjourned had
! arrived and called the Convention to
order, and called upon Rev. Dr. Scy
burn, of Baltimore, who addressed
the Throne of Grace.
The chair announced for the con
venience of members of the Conven
tion and press that every person ris
ing lo.make a motion or speech shall
announce his name and State.
Cabell, of Arkansas, asked seats
by courtesy for five delegates from
Arkansas in excess of their regular
number. Agreed to.
Burr, of Connecticut, announced
that the Committee on Resolutions
was ready to report, and the Clerk
, read the report, recommending the
adoption of the resolutions already
adopted by the Liberal Republican
Convention at Cincinnati. [Cheers.]
In order that there should be no ap
prehension as to these resolutions
j Burr called for their reading in full
to the Convention, which was done,
! each plank in the platform being re
| ceived with an applause. Tlie one
1 term plank was especially well ro
‘ ceived. A call for three cheers at
the close elicited a partial response.
Burr explained that the resolutions
were the Cincinnati platform exactly,
nothing added, nothing excluded.
This platform was adopted on com
mittee by all the States except Del
aware, Mississippi and Oregon, lie
moved the adoption of the report and
moved the previous question.
Bayard, of Delaware, inquired
whether the previous question—an
other name for the gag law—had be
come a law of the Democratic Con
j veutiou without notice to the Dele-
gates.
The Chair said the Convention had
adopted the rales of the House of
Representatives, so that the motion
of Burr was in order and not open
to debate.
Various gentlemen appealed for
tho withdrawal of the motion, in
order to allow a short debate. Burr
said that he felt compelled to decline.
[Scenes of great confusion, cads of
question, and debates on the question
to sustain tho previous question.]
I’he call of States was ordered, and
being taken resulted: Yeas, i*s3;
nays, 17G. Hoffman, on casting the
united vote of New York in the af
firmative, said some of the delegates
and himself among the number, be
ing opposed to the previous question.
llauck, of Ohio, denied the right
of his delegation to cast tho vote as
a unit, and asked to have his vote
re orded no.
Tbe Chair announced that Barr, of
Ommeolieut, was now entitled to one
hour to debate the resolution. Bay
ard, of Delaware, appealed for sen
minutes. Burr conceded the request,
as Bayard is a member of the Com
mittee on Resolutions. Bayard took
the platform, while there was no dis
position to carp at and oppose the
men because of formed political opin
ions, he hoped the great Democratic
organization would be allowed to
have independent expression of its
own honest sentiments. [Cheers]
\V by take tbe cut and dried resolu
lions of another organization 1 [Ap
plause.] \\ by have the opinions of
other men not chosen by us be forced
down our throats as our expression.
It is proposed here that we shall go
before the country for the first time
without our own independent expaes
sion of principles. It is not just or
wise to ask us to go into the cam
paign under the clothing of a minor
ity. [Calls of time, time.]
The Chair announced that Burr,
out of respect for the minority, had
consented to give Bayard ten minutes
more.
Anotbet Connecticut delegate ob
jected to any man occupying the time
of the Convention in this way. [Ap
plause and hisses.]
lhe Chair called to order and re
minded the delegates that this was a
deliberative assemblage and urged
respectful hearing of any one who
occupied the floor, whether they ap
proved his seutimsnts or not.
Mr. Bayard finally resumed, argu
! i»g the necessity for some expression
of opinion upon the question of the
exercise of bederol military power,
under color of legislation, to enforce
the 14th and loth constitutional
; amendments. If the convention fail
ed in this there would be serious dis
j appointments. In conclusion, he en
( tered his protest against the pending
motion to adopt the report as a
: whole, and asked a separate vote on
i the several distinct propositions pend
i ’"g-
1) Conner, of South Corolina, re
gretted that there should have been
any difference of opinion here; all
1 other issues should be merged in the
single one of defeating the present
national administration. He said the
reconstruction acts, and the 13th,
14th and 15th constitutional amend
ments had been accepted. Public
opinion was higher than governments
and superior to any declartions by
conventions. [Applause] There was
nothing left as an issue now but to
save the na.ion from destruction by
corruption.
lie reviewed and criticized the for
eign policy of the Administration,
and urged a union of the whole na
tion to defeat the unhallowed pur
poses and shiftless policy of the pres
i ent government. An allusion to the
; prospective election of Greeley was
i received with great app'ause. As to
the 15th amerdment, he would be
the last man to attempt to wrest from
the four millions of freedmen the
right of suffrage. [Great applause.]
The nays on ordering the previous
question upon the adaption of the
report of the Committee on Resolu
, tions is as follows :
Alabama, 10; Arkansas, 2 ; Dela
ware, 6 • Florida. 2 ; Georgia, 21 ;
Louisiana, 10; Maryland, 2 ; Missou
■ ri, 4 ; Nevada, G ; New Jersey, 18 ;
Oregon, 6; Pennsylvania, 21; South
Carolina, 11 ; Texas, 1G ; Virginia,
; 22; West Virginia, 2.
The nays upon the adoption of the j
j report are—
Delaware, G ; Florida, 2 ; Georgia, |
19 ; Mississippi, 9 ; Missouri, 2 ; New
! Jersey, 9 ; Oregon, G ; Pennsylvania, !
7 ; West Virginia, 2.
Result of the ballot—Greeley, 686;
; Bayard, 15; Black, 21; Groesbeck,2. i
All for Greeley except Bayard j
1 and Delaware, 6; New Jersey, 9. j
1 Groesbeck, West Virginia, 2. Black, ;
j Pennsylvania, 21.
Pennsylvania voted 2 blanks.
Judge Reagan, of Texas, followed. '
j He said it was supposed among bis
! people that the Democratic party
I could not succeed at this election
j with a distinct Democrat, therefore
| they had come here to unito with
; their brethren of the whole country
I in effecting such an arrangement as
! will unite the Democrats with the
honest opponents of the administra
tion. It was wisdom, therefore, to
take the Cincinnati platform. Why
j refuse to accept the situation and
I make the best of it ?
Barksdale, of Mississippi, asked if
it was admissible to take a separate
vote on each resolution.
The Chair announced that it was
not, as the previous question had
been ordered.
Barksdale—l ask then the unani
mous consent of the Convention to
the division of the vote. [Cries of
no, no.]
Mcßae, of Tenuessee, made several
frantic efforts to obtain the floor and
was finally recognized by the chair,
and proceeded with excited protests
against the cutting off of debate.—
| [Cries of sit down ; cal! roll, call
i roll.] The roll of the States were
called on the main question of the
j adoption of the platform which re
sulted : Yeas, 602 ; nays, “0.
When Delaware voted no there
| were loud hisses.
The Chair appealed to the Con
| venlion to treat with respect the
vote of any and every Slate.
A delegate said the di»tu banco
was in the galleriers.
i Before the vote was announced,
permission was asked by the cliair-
I man of tho Alabama delegation lo
make an explanation of the change
| which he desired to make in the rec
! ord of Alabama’s vote.
Objection being made, the Chair
ruled that while he had a right to
change the vole he could not ex
plain it.
Subsequently, unanimous consent
being accorded, Shorter, of Alabama,
took two minutes to explain that
; there were in the pending resolutions
some statements rather than declara
tions of principles, which some of his
! delegation could not indorse without
| explanation—without stultification.
: Having said this, he changed Aia-
I harna’s vote from 12 ayes and 8 nays
to 20 ayes. [Cheers ]
Hoffman, of New York, presented
a petition of 15,000 Germans of the
| city of Now York relative to the
nomination of a candidate for Presi
dent, which was sent to tho desk,
where it was read by the Secretary.
It recommends the nomination of
Greeley and Brown, and expresses
the belief that they will have a hear
ty support of Germans regardless of
past affiliations as the best nomina
tion that can be made. [Cheers.]
Ray, of Indiana, offered a resolu
tion to proceed to vote by States for
candidates for President and Vice
President.
Cox, of New York, offered an
I amendment, providing that, on the
calling of eacli State its chairman
shall state how the delegation votes,
and his statement alone bo taken.
The amendment was accepted by
the mover and the latter adopted viva
; voce.
Snowhook, of Illinois, presented
lhe name of Horace Greeley as a
Democratic candidate for President.
' [Cheers.]
The roll was called on the Presi
dential nomination, and each vote for
! Greeley was received with cheers.
The ballot resulted as follows:
i Greeley, 686 ; James A. Bayard, 15 ;
I J. S. Black, 21 ; Groesbeck, 2.
New York, July 12.—The Com
mittee appointed by the Baltimore
Convention to announce to Greelev
his nomination assembled at the
Fifth Avenue Hotel this morning.
Every member was present. Soon
after 12 o’clock the committee pro
ceeded to Lincoln Club to moet Mr
Greeley, who was present with two
or three friends to receive them.
Senator Doolittle, addressing Mr.
Greeley, said the National Democrat
ic Convention had devolved upon
the committee the pleas ng duty to
wait upon him in person to notify
him of his unanimous nomination tor
the Presidency by that Convention,
official notification of which lie now
presented to him. The published
report of (lie proceedings showed
that there was great unanimity, hut
only those who took part in them
had any idea of the enthusiasm with
which it was determined to sustain'
the Liberal Republican movement
and to support the principles con
tained in the Cincinnati Convention,
and they felt that the surest means
of doing so w.is to nominate and
elect the same candidates.
He then introduced each member
of the committee to Mr. Greeley,
and after a cordial greeting he replied
to the announcement.
Mr. Greeley said that, perhaps, it
needed more time and consideration ;
before replying fully to such impor-!
tant communication, it may be that
he should have replied in writing,
hut inasmuch a 3 had addressed a let
ter to the committee of another con
vention, which had been extensively
published, perhaps it was not neces
sary that he should, at this time,
make a formal and full reply. He
accepted the nomination, he said, and
with mere pleasure from the gratify
ing spirit with which it was present
ed. His position was a proud one
and was nevertheless an embarrass.-
ing one, hut he trusted this embar
rassment was only temporary. It
subjected him to misconstruction on
the part of valued and life-long
friends, but he was assured that time
only was necessary to vindicate his
motives and the disinterested and pa
triotic course he had determined to
pursue before he received such a
hearty co-operation. While you,
said Mr. Greeley, in making this
nomination are not less Democratic
but even more so than had yon
taken the opposite course. I, in ac
cepting it, was not as much a Re
publican as formerly. [Applause]
lie was not much accustomed, he
said, to receive the nomination for
President. If he had been he prob
ably responded more fitly. This was
all he had to saj except to invite the
members of the committee, or as
many of them as could make it con
venient, to visit him at his farm at
Chappaqna. He could assure them
of a warm welcome. lie should bo
there to morrow, and then they son Id
consult and confer more freely. The
committee then withdrew.
