WHO WILE BE THE SOV*-
IMKK ?
This is the qnestion that will be
uppermost in men's minds for the
next ten days. The Convention
to settle this question wiil assem
ble in Chicago next Tuesday the
Bth inst The Democratic party
chastened by the defeats of the
past should enter on this duty
with more than usual care And
we are glad to note that many of
the states are sending men of large
experience and cool judgement lo
act for them Ex Senators Thur
mond of Ohio, aud Headricks of
Indiana, are the two leading fig
ures thus far selected, aid two
better taen cannot be found in our
ranks. Each has led bis party to
victory in his own state, and they
know tlie temper of the people
whose wishes are to be roasumat
•d in November. This is not all,
they are Democrats whose fidelity
and judgement bavedoeea trusted
iu great conflicts of the part and
may bo safely trusted again.
We have no doubt the Conven- ■
tion will give us a candidate who
can command not only the entire
strength of the party, but will be
able to control the larger ele
ment of dissatisfied Republicans j
who are unwilling to support their
own nominee.
Nearly all of the delegates go
untrameled by instructions. Free
to act on the best information they
can gather after consultation witn
representative men from all sec
tions of the Unien. The attempt
of any state to tie the haads of
its representatives, places them at
a disadvantage in the convention,
and we think it is fortunate for
the parly *hai nine tenths of the
men who go there are free to act
op their best judgement, when
they have had an opportunity to
survey ike field and measure the
strength of the various aspirants.
The most important question is
that of availability. There are
thousands of good men in tne
Democratic party, men capable of
filling the high office to the satis
faction of the country, bat what
does that amount to if they can
not be elected ? Success is the
first thing to be looked to and pol
icy afterward*. And we are wil
ling to take any man, be it Cleav
land, Bayard, Flower, Field or
any other reliable Demecrat wbo
can be elected. Tariffs and ail
other issues, that may divide our
strength, should not be allowed
to enter the convention. Victory
and refoim should be our watch
wcrd. We can adjust the tariff
the Chinese questions and oth
er like queotioas, when we gel In
a position to adjust them.
Bayard and Cleaveland are gen
erally conceded to be the two
strong men before the convention.
Flower, McDonald, Field, Hoadly
and Carlyle have their friends,
who will press their claims with
energy and enthusiasm, but public
attention is called to the tiist
named as the leading aspirants.
As a matter of personal choice
aleno we would take the chivalric
Bayard, His character as a pubic
man and private citizen is as pure
as the driven snow. His learniug (
experience aud ability eminently
flt him for tlie high station, but
can lie be elected, is the moment
ous question. We are afraid lie
cinnotbe. Like Judge Field,
he has a record that stands in tbe
way es success. Doubtless be
was right in the position he toek
in his celebrated Dover speech,
yet it would be used by our crafty
enemies to drive thousands of
voters from bis support in the
North. Hence we conclude that
it is not the best policy to ’nomi
uate him.
How about Oleaveland? The
country knows but little about
him, except that he was elected
Governor of New York by an over
whelming majority. That he has
exhibited the highest executive
ability and has inaugurated and
carried forward a reform in that
State that has brought him promi
nently before the country as the i
man to reform the abuses that
have crept into the general gov
ernment, He has no recard that
can be successfully attacked. He
can carry New York. There is
some opposition to him among the
Tammany Hall crowd, but they
are pledged to his support if nom-!
inated, It is nonsense to talk \
about kicking Tammany Hall out
es the procession. With 70,000
votes in their control, they hojd i
the balance of power in that great
State, and cemmon prudence die.
ta'esjthat thatjvote sliould.not be
lightly thrown away.
Out of the other aspirants the :
Vice. Presidency can be tided. As
a matter of course, if an eastern
man gets the first place then the
W est should be allowed to name
the man for the second place.
Whether that choice be Hoadley
or McDonald we will be satisfied.
As Indiana is the battle ground
we thick McDonald is the best
man for tha race.
The KlectoriMl Count
The counting of the electorial
vete in 187(5, came very near plung
ing the country into civil w«. —
The great issues at stake and the
highly excited state of tho public
mind, and tbe evident iniuutlon
on the part of the Republicans to
put their man in by fair or foul
means, startled the country with
the imminence of a danger that
had not been anticipated by tbe
founders of tbe government, and
hence no adequate provisions had
been made for such an emergency.
Public sentiment at once de
manded that Congress should
make provisions for all future
counts of the electorial votes, so
that the danger then felt to be up
on tbe country could not occur
again. And tbe proper time to
provide this machinery was in the
intervals between elections, when
tbe question could oe calmly dis'
cussed and acted oa dispassionate
ly. Bills of various serts have
been proposed to meet the diflicul
ties, an 1 new we are approaching
another great political contest,
and nothing has been dene.
Two bills are pending before
Congress, one known as the Eaton
i bill which has passed the House,
and another one known as the Ed
munds bill, that has passed the
Senate. Between the two houses
this important measure will proba
lily fit;!, and if the election this
j fall leaves the question at all in
! doubt, the fourth of next March
will find the entire country racked
with political excitement and a re
petition of tlie folly of 1876. It
is the duty of Congress to remain
in session until some bill ie pass
ed if they cave to stay in contin
l nous session until the 4th ofMarch
Atlanta is on top again. Macou
got her down iu tne first walking
match aud the Atlanta boys came
home with their heads down while
the Maoonitos brought out their
biggest rooster and crowed loud
enough to be beard down in
the Ofekenokee swamp. But the
plucky Gate City did not intend
to rest and auotLer race was agreed
on, this time to be beld in Atlan
ta.
Atlanta brought in a new horse
a man named Prater, a regular
mountain colt, while Macon seat
up her best Bran, Ford. At least
fifteen hundred i/acouiies came
up to witness the triumph of the
Central city again, and taka in a
few shekels from the Atlanta
bloods, who had raised them i>
the first race.
Bu f Ford found his Delilah
while waiking around and had his
strength shorn off. as he claims,
by being made drunk on cham
paign. Whether this was tbe
cause of his defeat or not, Prater
won the race, makiug 37 miles and
ten laps in six hours. That is
pretty tall walking.
The two cities are now even aud
a (hird race is demanded to settle
the championship, which it is pro
posed shall be made iu Griffin.
On ibis ueutral ground tbe real
claims of tbe two cities can be set
tied more satisfactorially.
That TilUen Boom
Notwithstanding Tilden'a letter
positively declining to accept the
nomination for the Presidency
and announcing that Providence
has closed hie political career,
*he;e seems to be an element in
the party that is determined to
run him any how They take it
for granted that the old man does
not know what he wants and that
when he says he will not accept a
nomination he does not meaa it.
This is all gas. It Tilden intend
ed to make the race, he would
have allowed bis name presented
Four years ago he refused to run.
and he has again, in unmistakable
t*rms, refused, and it would be ar
rant folly to shoot the old man in
to the race against his vehement
pretests.
We copy in anether column one
of those horrible stories as a wo- 1
man having been buried alive,that j
occasionally harrow up the public j
with righteous indignation. The
laws of the State ought to regulate
burials so that such an ocenrrance
would be an impossibilit y. The
hurrying of human bodies to the
grave white there is a spark of
life, or even the remotes', nope,
should be made a crime punished
with a heavy penalty. Instances
•f suspended animation occasion
ally occur, where the patient is ap
parently dead, and yet natural re
sults of death is not apparent. It
18 a very easy matter to tell with- 1
out any sort of doubt, when death
has supervened. It may be un- ;
pleasant to retain the remains eo
long, but there should be some
rule of safety adopted and enforc
ed.

Tbe Mexican pension bill pass,
ed the Senate on the 24th, but
loaded down wi*h so many amend
manta that it will die a aatural
death in the House cf Represents
tives The bill as originally pass
ed by tlie House was simply te
put tee veterans of the Msxican
war upon the same footiag with
soldiers of 1812 and tbe late war,
but tbe republicans saw an eppor
tunity to ingraft a little political
buncombe in the bill and thsrebv
secure its defeat.
Gen Williams, of Kentucky, who
was a gallant Mexican soldier and
had been one of its warmest
friends, in announcing his determi
nation to uole against it suid :
Mr. Willi/.ms thought tha t fur
ther discussion fruitless, bnt he
would give some rersor.s for his
vote. He could not support this
bill, which as it now stood, was
an insult to the old Mexicau \eter
ana. If the bill had been consid
ered in full before the Chicago
convention, it would have been
passed. Now it was as dead’us a
door nail. Tbe senate had voted
down the anears provission, not
withstanding the resolntion of tbe
Chicago convention, but shrink
from voting down the resolution
of the caucus of repubican sena
tors. Mr. A’iUiams had .supposed
that if a brave and honest man ev
er existed on tbe face of the
earth, a naan not afraid of man or
devil, it was the senator from Illi
nois (Logan), the nominee of the
Republic? n party for the vice pres
idency of the republic. But even
that senator bad shrunk back and
bad been driven from hi* sense of
duty. Oh, said Mr. Williams the
shades of JSumner, Merton, Stev
ens, and other great leaders of
the republican party in its palmy
days es its glory and power! Mr
Williams spoke with great ener
gy. It was clear that tho bi/1
had no friends on the republican
side and that the Mexican sold
iers must wait for their pensions
till tbe goverment should come iu
to the bands of the Democrats.
Ac tion on this bi.l was a disgrace
to the nation. The amendments
to the bill, as amauded, he said,
gave us a complete system that
1 previdea for union soldiers as
well as Mexican soldiers, and that
was whet w e meant to have.
Tbe Rose murder case is still the
sensation in Atlanta. The detect
ives have searched in vaiu for
more evidence but noihing defi
nite has been obtained. The gen
eral impreesiou is that Rose is
guilty, but the facts to sustain the
belief are not fortheoming. Tbe
JUIJf W»io L\j livid TVo l«»ui
on Saturday aud it is hardly be
lieved that sufficient evidence has
bees secured to justify Rose de
tention. In Hall county where
the parties are well known, there
is a etvoug prejudice against Uo.-e
His old neighbors believe him guil
ty, and tlie strangest feature con
nected with the case is that Jones,
tue murdered woman s lather, is
backing up his son-in-law, —F®
does not believe him guilty.
Ex Gov. Moses, the carpet tag
governor of South Carolina, is in
jail in Chicago for obtaining goods
under false pretenses He went
up to the Republican convention
as one of the manipulators and
got out of money, and in order to
raise the wind defrauded two phy
sicians out of mouey on bogus
checks. The Ex Ger will preba
bly wear a striped suit for ewhile.
A carpet bagger is generally a
man of fertile resources. George

Kentucky with a bridle and a

Oje of those ghastly stories of in
terment before life ' has beoome
extinct which cause anunvoluntary 1
shudder of horror to pass.through
reader, is current in this city.
The victim so the story goes, is a
young married lady of twenty
years In May of last year, three
months after her marrage the la- j
dy was taken violently ill, and af
ter lingering for tea daye, apj at-1
amly died. There w re certain
peculiarities about the apperance 1
es the supposed carps, however,
which caused a sutpiciou in the
mind of the attending physic'an
that hie patient might be" in a
trace ; butafter keeping the body
four days, with assigns of return
ing life, the remains were consign
ed to the grave, temporary inter-,
ment being made in the family
lot in an abandoned graveyard. .
A day or two ago the body was
diseutered prior to removal of an- j
other cemetery. Te the surprise
of tte sexton the coffin lid show
ed eigne of displacement, and on
its being removed the grave dig
ger wan horrified to find the re
mains turned face downward, the
baud fi/led with long tnfts of hair
tern from the head, face ueck and
bosom deeply scratched and scar
red, while lining of the oofijn had
been torn into fragments in the
desperate effort of tlie eutombel
victim* to escape from her tenible
fate. Since the discovery the
I young husband has been proitrt
ted and his life is despaired of.
The names are withheld.

A man claiming to hare made
the care of fingtr Bails, a life
study said to a Brooklyn report
er : “Our finger nails grow eut
about three times a year They
shoal I be trimmed once a week,
leaving them long ereugh to pro
tect the ends of the fingers, as is
designed by nature. If trimmed
toe close at the corners there is
danger of their growing iu to the
flesh, causing runarounds and
other distressing atonormitee.
Biting of the finger nails is a*
odious practice. Adults wbo are
given to ibis habit can be broken
of it by lieing,reproved for ‘its
indulgence, and having pointed
emt the bad effect it will have on

“I met you two weeks ago at your
