Call for Another Convention*
We publish, by request, this week
a call for another State Convention
to assemble in Atlanta on the 20tb
instant, signed by a number of clever
gentlemen, who style tbemselres the
“true Democracy.”
We do not sympathize with or
approve this meeting, but look upon
it as an effort to organize a new par
ty in opposition to the Deinootatio
party of the State. What can they
expect to accomplish by putting air
other ticket in the field ? They can
have no hope of success. The au
thorized conventions of the party
have spoken with a unanimity unpar
allelled, and we can 6ee nothing but
harm to result from the assembling
of another convention with the
avowed object of making war upon
the action of the party. While it
may not be so intended, it is aiding
Grant to perpetuate bis infernal mili
tary government upon the country
just as effectually rs a skillful com
mander weakens his enemy’s front
by making an attack with a small
detachment of troops upon his rear
or flank. We hope that these gen<*
tletnen will reconsider their action ;
if they do not, then let the people
repudiate it. “To your tents, Oh
Israel!”
The Ninth Congressional Dis
trict.
'Hie Legislature, during this ses
sion, has passed a bill re districting
the whole State, under the new ap
portionment. It will be seen, by re
ference to the list of districts pub
lished below, that the counties of
Walton, Milton and Hart have been
taken from the old Sixth District, and
tho county of Morgan added to it;
and it is now known as the Dili Con
gressional District. We regret the
loss of Milton and Walton counties,
and we are informed they were disap
pointed in being cut off from their
old associations. We are aware,
however, of the difficulties in the way
of so arranjjinff the districts as to
give satisfaction to all the counties.
The election for Members of Con
gee*s comes on in November, and, as
the districts have been laid off, there
ought to l>e some action taken look
ing to a convention of the district
for the purpose of nominating a can
didate to represent the 9th District
in the next Congress. This duty de
volves* upon the Executive Commit
tee who were appointed two years
ago. We were present when they
were appointed, but do not remem
ber who constitute the committee.
We would suggest that a call be is
sued at once for a convention, in or
• lor to give the people time to select
their delegates. We think the con»
vention he called early in
September; and, as Gainesville is cen
trally located, would suggest that it
be held there.
Since the test oath has been abol
ished, we presume there will be no
scarcity of gentlemen who are wil
ling to abandon home and friends to
serve their country. We have beard
a number of uames mentioned as suit
able candidates. Those most promi
nently spoken of are Col. l'rice, of
Lumpkin; Col. 11. P. Bell, of For.
ayth; lion. G. McMillan, of Haber
sham ; Hon. W. E. Simmons, of
Gwinnett; Col. J. 11. Christy, of
Claik, and Judge lieese, of Morgan.

The First Gun of the Cam
paign—The First Fruits of
the Coalition between Lib
eral Republicanism and
Liberal Democracy.
The dispatches from North Car
olina indicate the election of Mcr
riman, the Democratic candidate
for Governor, by a small majority,
and the election of Beach, Ashe,
Vance, Waddell an 1 Robins, all
Democrats, to Congress, f/raut
made a wonderful effort to carry
the Old North State. Two mem
bers of bis Cabinet were sent down
to canvass the State. Money wis
used unsparingly, and all kinds of
threats of persecution were made
to intimidate voters. The contest
was warm and excited, but the
victory is gained and North Caro
lina is redeemed. What say our
straight-out friends? lias not
some good been accomplished ?
But for the action of the National
Democracy, that State would have
been lost to the South in the con
test with central is in.
Can Grant lie Elected?
The Philadelphia Age says the
more thought bestowed upon the
matter, the more closely the political
present and future are secured, the
more difficult it becomes to put Gen.
Grant in the position of a man who
can be re elected. As evidence of
this fact, we give below the calcula
tion ot n thoughtful, observant poli
tician, who has recently bad abun
dant opportunities of feeling the pub
lic pulse upon the Presidential mat
ter in various States of the Union.

For the Gwinnett Herald.
The Farmers’ Club of Gwinnett
county, by invitation, held its Au
gust meeting at the house of Mr. D-
J. Liddell, and a number of the
members of the club visited lrs
crops.
After the Club was called to order,
a committee was appointed with in
stretions to report upon the condition
and prospect of the same, w ho made
the following report; which was
unanimously adopted by the Club:
The committee appointed to report
in relation to tiie crops of Mr Dan: J
iel J Liddell, this day inspected by
the Club, beg leave to otter the fol
lowing resolutions :
Resolved, That, in the opinion of
this Club, a portion of the corn sliowji
to us by Mr. Liddell is the best which
has been seen by us at any time,
either the present year or the past, in
this county ; a portion of which, as
estimated by several members of the
Club, will yield, with one more good
rain, sixty bushels per acre; and we
hereby congratulate our young friend,
Mr. Liddell, on his industry and good
judgment in the management and
success of his crop, both com and
cotton.
Resolved, That the thanks of the
Clnb are due, and are hereby ten
dered to, Mr. L. for his generous hos
pitality in furnishing choice fruits
and melons, and a good dinner to
our members this day; and that
these resolutions he published in the
Gwinnett llekai.d.
Upon the adoption of the report,!
Mr. L. thanked the Club for their!
flattering notice of his crops. He
had used his best endeavors to be i
successful; and a generous soil, with !
glad sunshine and genial showers, had ;
blessed bis efforts with a good pros- |
pect of a bountiful yield.
For the complimentary allusion to !
him personally, the Club bad his,
warmest thanks, ll would serve to
encourage and stimulate him for j
further exertion, in onr noble calling ;
in the future; and lie would ever ]
recur to this day, in having his
friends with him, in doing bis best to
entertain them, as the happiest of
his life.
Eli McDaniel reported an experi
ment with wheat the present year.
He prepared an acre of stubble land,
and sowed upon it in November two
bushels of seed. This seed bad been
run through a smutter and two thirds
of it was injured, and only about
one half bushel came up, leaving it
too thin ou the land. It did very
well and yielded thirty one and a
half bushels, with two or three bush
els left upon the ground.
R. D. Winn reported two and a
half bushels of Fultz Wheat from
one quart of seed sent him from the
Department of Agriculture. It was
sown in drills eighteen inches apart,
and is recommended by him as a
superior variety, and well adapted to
this latitude.
Crops, generally, are repotted fine,
especially cotton, which is unequalod
by any crop over raised here, by the
testimony of the “oldest inhabitants-”
The officers elected for the next
year are Thomas E. Winn, President;
Thomas 11. Mitchell, Vice President ;
E. J. McDaniel, Treasurer, and
Alston Martin Secretary.

A big out door Smith ratification
meeting is being held here to-night.
There are many speakers.— Cur. Con
stitutionalist.
The Savannah News, of Tuesday,
gives the following account of the
row at the Grant ratification meeting
in that city on Monday night:
“As was announced in our issue of
Saturday, a meeting of the Radical
office holders was held at St. An
drew’s Hall last evening to ratify the
nomination of Grant and Wilson.
A number of highly scented and dis
tinguished speakers were promised to
shoot off a little Grant music for the
occasion, and it was expected that
the meeting would be harmonious
and successful, bat it proved to be a
regular old highfalutin jamboree, in
which discord reigned supreme. Ihe
meeting at first gave promise of being
as serene as a summer’s day, and the
head lights of the Custom-house ling
were very jubilant. 11. Potash har-
row strutted the stage aud regale 1
the crowd of black spirits and w hite,
and laudations of the Champion
Gift-Taker, discoursed volubly upon
the prime necessity of unity of action,
and advised the negroes to abondon
their attempts to force themselves
npon the street cars, as they were
not justified in so doing, the compa
ny having provided for their accom
modation cars equally as good as
those set apart for white people. Bry
ant, of Augusta fame, followed in one ;
of his usual harrangues, and was sue- |
ceeded by Col. Atkins, who spouted I
freely in the good cause, and gave
the same advice to the negroes about j
riding in the street cars as Farrow. !
At this juncture the irrepressible !
George Washington Wilson mount- j
ed the rostrum and hurled into the
excited crowd one of his terrific elo
quent thunderbolts against the Cus
tom-heuse ring. Thereupon arose a
howl “put him out,” “squelch him,”
“fan him wid yer bool,” “put a head \
on him,” and other like expressions,
and suiting the action to the words,
a movement was made towards the
Prince of disorganizes, but the val
iant George Washington W. didn’t
scare worth a cent, and his daring
brother Tommy Wilson backed him
up. Tommy drew his sword, llour
[ islied it around and looked daggers
: at the threatening faces of the murky
heroes. The excitement increased to
fever heat, several shots were fired
in the hall and the greatest uproar
prevailed. Georgy W. banged away
I with his little pistol “two times,” one
ball striking the ceiling and the other
glancing tlnough the window struck
on the opposite side of the street.
This was considered an invitation to
| pilch ir» by the angry crowd who had
gathered in the street on hearing of
the dastardly outrages on Bull street,
and several shots were fired into the
hall. Tommy put up his sword and
prepared “to git” from thereabouts in
the liveliest manner. The ball was
eleated in a short time, and the way
some of those parties got up the
street would have done credit to
Longfellow. During this melee Mr.
Henry Bogardus was shot in the
shoulder blade, inflicting a painful
wound. Henry End res and Tommy
Wilson were also touched up with
the casual lead, bnt not seriously, and
Enoch Morgan was mortally wound
ed. Several others were -shot and
injured, but we could obtain no par
ticulars in the confusion that ensued.
George Washington W. deserves the
credit of smashing up the meeting,
and rendering the glorious ratifica
tion of Butcher Grant and Cobbler
Wilson a “gigantic frod” and stupen
dous fizzle. The nicely prepared res
olutions will be laid over for another
time.
“Warrington,” the well known and
shrewd correspondent of the Spring
field Republican in a recent letter to
that paper says :
“Horace Greeley was nominated
early in May, and the immediate
effect of the nomination, as I then
wrote you, was to kill the Liberal
Republican demonstration in Massa
chusetts. Searching high and low
among Republicans for a week or
two, I could not find half a dozen
Greeley men—literally not six men
who would even tolerate the idea of
voting for Greeley. Three weeks
after the Ciucinati Convention I will
venture to say there were not in the
Slate 200 Republicans who would
avow tbemsolves Greeley men, and it
would have been as impossible on the
Ist of June to set up a Greeley State
committee such as now exists, as it
would be to set up au anti-masonic
State committee.
“From that time forward, less than
three weeks, the Greeley party has
grown with great speed, and among
the men who four years ago vote)
for Grant there are now at least
10,000 who mean to vote for Giee
ley. The 200 Greeley Republicans
on the Ist of June, will pretty sure
ly have increased to 15,000 or 20,-
000 by the Ist of August. It will
be safe to estimate that nearly lo,f
000 of those who voted for Grant in
1868 will cast no vote at all this
year, except for the State officers and
Congressmen. With these subtract
ed aud with 20,000 Greeley votes
transfered to the other side, the 7a,-
000 majority for Grant in 1868 would
dwindle to 25,000 and as the Demo
cratic vote of that year will probably
be increased by naturalization, etc., I
put down Giant’s majority in Massa
chusetts in November at 20,000. —
But if Sumner comes out actively for
Greeley, if Charles Francis Adams
is the Liberal candidate for Govern
or; if the State elections of the next
three moths show large Grant losses,
then Massachusetts becomes a doubt
ul State in November.
Death of Ex-Governor Craw
ford.
It becomes our painful task to re
cord the death of one of Georgia’s
most distinguished sons, the Hon.
George W. Crawford. lie died on
the evening of the 27th instant, at
his residence, Bel-Air, Richmond
county, in the seventy-fourth year of
his age This distinguished Georgi
an had a long, successful and conspic
uous career in public life, during
which his native State bestowed on
him mony honors, showing that the
people appreciated his fine intellect,
iiis sterling integrity, and his assidu
ous devotion to duty. In every po
sition, during an eventful and distin
guished caieer, and amidst many
trying scenes, he proved himself true
to every obligation of duty and
honor.
Born in Columbia county, son of j
Peter Crawford, who was himself a I
leading man in his day, and long an
influential Senator in the Legislature.
Geo. W. Crawford settled in Augusta,
after graduating at Princeton College,
New Jersey, and commenced here his j
career as a member of the bar. He
occupied for several years the office
of Attorney General, when be relin
quished it at the end of his term for
a more lucrative civil practic. For
several years, beginning in 1837, he
was a leading member of the Legis
lature m the House of Representa
tives' from Richmond county. He
was then elected, in January, 1834,
by general ticket, to Congress, House
of Representatives, to fill an unex
pired term. The same year he was
elected Governor, and re-elected in
1840, retiring at the end of his sec
ond term. On the election of Gen.
Taylor to the Presidency, he was in
vited to a seat in the Cabinet, and
became Secretary of War in March,
1849. Gov. Crawford held this po
! sition during the life of President
! Tavlor, and retired at the death of
his lamented chief, about sixteen
months thereafter.
From that dav Gov. Crawford
ceased to be in active political life,
j lie traveled abroad with his family,
j after leaving Washington City, add -
i ing thereby much to the large store
of information he had previously
acquired from men and books. On
his return home, he continued tili he
died, with one exception, to lead the
life of a private citiaen. That excep
tion was when he look his seat iu the
State Convention which, in January,
18G1, declared Georgia to be no lon
ger a member of the Federal Union.
Of that body Governor Crawford was
President
Thus it will be seen that he whose
death we here record was always a
favoiite son of Georgia, popular with
the people, elevated by them with
their highest honors, and command
ing their confidence. For some years
advancing time and physical infirmi-
I ty had begun to press heavily upon
! tlie energies of the retired statesman.
J After a few days’ illness he calmly
sank to rest in the bosom of liis
family, thus peacefully closing a
i long, active and useful life. There
! aie many who have reason to honor
S his generous nature, and to remember
his unostentious kindness and his
| charitable deeds.— Augusta Constitu

Tiie Author of that Infamous
Paragraph a Grant Man. —Mr.
Conklin, among the thousand un
truths which lie utters against Mr.
Greeley, quotes the following as his
language:
"When the rebellious traitors are
overwhelmed in the field, and scat
tered like leaves before an angry
wind, it must not be to return to
peaceful, contented homes j they must
find poverty at their firesides, and
privation in the anxiousieyes of moib
! ers, and the rags of children.
This differs bom the rest in that it
was stated in these columns at !ea>t
ten days ago that Mr. Greeley never
wrote the above, never prompted or
approved it, and never saw it until
after it was printed. W e may prop
erly add the fact that the man who
did write it is now one of the most
| earnest and prominent editorial sup-
I porters of Grant, Wilson and Conk
liu in this city.— N. Y. Tribune.
On Dits about Newspapers. —We
understand that on the Ist of Sep- j
tember, Col. A. R. Lamar, formerly
of the Columbus Sun, will assume
editorial charge of the Savannah

most polished and powerful writers

remote, if the necessary arrangements
can be made.— Telegraph and Mes
