(Yiwkta. t'orsTV, March 18th, 1808.
We. the undersigned, have to-day witnessed
on the farm of Joseph Amis, Esq., of this
faulty, the trial of a Cotton Seed Planter,
i Arlington's Patent, which we have no hesi
tancy in recommending as the very best tiling
cl' ("lie kind that we have seen. The ground
m which it was tried was very rough, yet it
p'l fcrmed the work in sis perfect si manner sis
could he desired. It. opens the fu»row, drops
tie seed and covers, all in the same operation :
and can he adjusted in a few seconds of time

g miicli as thirty or forty acres are to be planted

Bdroppcr would no doubt pay the cost of the

We, therefore, take great pleasure in recom-

Macon, Ga., March 27. 1868. J
Pursuant to a call by the Chairman, the
Slate Central Executive Committee of the
Democratic party met in this city last evening
and concluded their session to-day. The Sec- J
j rvtary ia authorized to make public the fullow-
, ing extract from the minutes:
Resolved, That, for reasons founded alike in
the illegitimacy of its origin and its odions
character, we urge upon our friends throagb-
ont the State sternly to oppose, by all lawful
means, ou the hustings and at the polls, a rat
ification of the instrument recently promulga
ted at Atlanta as a Constitution for Georgia.
But,
V hereas, The Atlanta Constitution maybe
imposed upon us, notwithstanding our opposi
tion thereto; and in that event it will be of
vital importance to all the people of Georgia
to have good and sound men to administer the
State Government nnder it; and
Whereas, The Hon. Augustus Reese has
declined the candidaey for Governor of Geor- j
gia. tendered him by this Committee, and it is
deemed impracticable, from want of time, to
hold a nominating convention in which all
parts of the State shall be fairly and truly
represented, and
Whereas, Owing to difranchisements and
other causes, numerous and serious embarrass
ments surround the question of a strict party
nomination for Governor at the present time—
for these reasons,
Resolved, That the State Central Committee
of the Democratic party deem it unadvisable to
make any nomination for Governor at the ap
proaching election, and advise and urge the
Democrats and Conservatives of the State to
cast their votes, as a unit, for the independent
candidate now in the field, the Hon. David
Irwin. We are satisfied he holds no views in-
irnicable to the honor or welfare of Georgia.—
We confide in his ability, integrity, and devo
tion to his Stale, and in these have a guaran
tee that if elected, he will administer the Gov
ernment solely in the interests of the people.
Resolved, That our friends throughout the
State arc urged to bring into the field, in every
county and Senatorial District, good and true
men for the Legislature, in every case selecting
candidates who are registered voters, as we are
advised that none others will be allowed to
take their seats.

ADDRESS OF THE STATE CENTRAL EX
ECUTIVE COMMITTEE OF THE DEMO
CRATIC PARTY OF GEORGIA.
rKE j
Ga, \

Rooms Central Executive Committk
Of the National Democratic Party of
Macon, Ga, March 27, 1§G8
To the People of Georgia:
The Committee appointed in accordance
with the resolutions of the Convention, hold
in the city of Macon on the 5tli and Gth of last
December, with authority to call State Con
ventions as often as may be necessary, and to j
the policy which,
stitution. under the delusive hope of obtaining
relief from their indebtedness, will rush into
tbe net that is spread to catch them; but when
in, the bait that lured them on will disappear,
and they will be entangled in meshes from
which there will be no escape.
There is but one course for benest men to
pursue, and that is to reject indignantly the
bribe which is offered for their votes, and with
it the men who would deceive and betray them.
One other objection to the adoption of the
Constitution and the government it is intended
to organize, we beg leave to urge, and that is.
the heavy expense it will entail upon the State.
It may be safely affirmed that if the new
government shall go iuto operation according
to the provisions of the proposed Constitution,
it will, upon a moderate estimate, cost the
State not less than $3,000,000.
Why throw this heavy burden upon the peo
ple in their present impoverished condition?—
Why do it when there is no actual necessity
for it? Why tbe enormous expense of substi
tuting a new Constitution in the place of one
already in operation, and with which the peo
ple are already content? Why most it be
done? The correct answer is, it is to be done
to increase tbe number of voters, and to give
the Radical party permanent power in the
State. This is the true object, whatever may
be the pretext to the contrary. And that class
of persons for whose especial benefit this re
construction measure is thrust upon the State,
and who are to be invested with the right of
suffrage in the new organization, will bear but
little, if any of this heavy burden. Almost
its entire weight will fall upon those who own
the taxable property. Will they stand it? Let
them answer at the polls on the 20th of next
month.
Second. Who shall administer the Govern
ment under the new Constitution, if adopted?
Looking to a contingency that may occur,
[•flic frieuds of order and good government in
all the counties aud Senatorial districts of ibis
State are invoked to bring out their wisest
and best men, who are eligible to seats in the
Legislature, and not to remit their labors until
they shall have secured their election.
If the Constitution now to be voted on shall
be adopted and become the fundamental law
of the land, the first Legislature which will
assemble after its adoption will have the most
vital interests of tbe people in their hands,
and will control the destinies of the State for
years to come. How important, then, that
I legislation, in the commencement of the new
government, take a right direction! How im
mensely important that it be controlled by
virtue and intelligence—by “ wisdom, justice
and moderation," and not by ignorance, cor
ruption and malignity I
If the friends of good government prevail
and secure a majority in both branches of the
Legislature, we may feel assured, at least, that
our fellow-citizens will not be disturbed in
the enjoyment of their political rights. But
if, on the other hand, the government shall \
fall into the hands of men elected by an igno- !
rant, irresponsible constituency, having no j
interests to be affected injuriously by unwise ;
legislation, but having power to inflict injury j
upon others by an improper choice of legisla- i
tors—without wisdom or discretion to direct
them in the choice of rulers, or virtue to with- i
stand the approaches of*-corruption—we may j
Anecdotes of the War.
We take the following from tbe South err
i Opinion :
I A NORTH CAROLINA MECHANIC.
In the fall of 1864. when Petersburg was 1
under a siege, there were many regiments in
I tne trenrhes aronnd the aforesaid place, dis-
charging their duties as good soldiers, and al
ways found at their posts.
Happening to visit the brigade of Geo. R., ‘
one cold, frosty morning. I found a group of
the boys sitting around a fire cooking their
usual morning ration.
Qne of tbe party, a large, healthy, robust- I
looking biped, with brawuy arms, and large j
red whiskers hanging down in front, whose ,
appearance indicated that he was a relation of,
some backwoodsman on our western frontier,
kept up a continual talk, and seemed to the '
writer, from bis witty remarks, which drew i
from his hearers bursts of laughter, to be a j
very smart fellow. So I concluded to squeeze j
in a word edgeways to find the soldier’s occu-
pation before the war at home.
I said, “ Lock here, mister, you are a mighty 1
big fat man; you must be a blacksmith when
you are at home.”
“No," says he, “I ain't no blacksmith."
“Well, then, you must be a carpenter, stone
cutter, or must maul mils, for such a big man
as you ain’t made for nothing."
“No," says he, “I ain’t no blacksmith, car
penter, stonecutter, nor don’t maul rails; but
still I am a mechanic when I am at home."
I said. “What in the devil’s name do you
do, then?”
“Well," says he, “when I am at home 1
makes tar.’’
This last remark caused an uncontrollable
burst of laughter amongst several of the by
standers who hailed from other States, who
readily acknowledged tbnt North Carolina was
entitled to all praise, whether in the councils
of the nation, in foreign courts, at the bar, on
tbe battle field, or in the amazing verdancy of
some of her sous.
THE STAMMERING LIEUTENANT.
During the battle of TreviUlan’s station, Ya ,
in July, 1864. between the Confederate cavalry,
nnder Gen. Waile Hampton, and that of the
enemy, under Sheridan, Gen. Butler’s division
had dismounted and advanced some distance j
on foot, aud were seriously engaged, when it \
was discovered that the enemy had flanked j
around, and succeeded in capturing the horses
of Butler’s sharpshooters, as well as the ord
nance wagons of the cavalry corps.
At this critical moment, Gen. Rosser, at the
head of the Laurel Brigade, came up, and see- !
ing hew matters stood, attacked the Federals, i
and recaptured Butler’s horses and ordnance i
wagons.
Lieut. A. R. Boteier, of the Ordnance De-; 1111
artment, seeing General Rosser, rode toward j ‘ tmv
From the Memphis Avalanche.

The woii is in the desert,
And the panther in the brake;.
The fox is on his rambles,
And the owl is wide awake;
For now tis noon of darkness,
And the world is all asleep,
And some shall wake to glory
And some shall wake to weep.

A river black is running
To a blacker sea afar,
And by its banks is waving
A Hag without a star;
There move the ghostly columns
(.if the swift Brigade of Death,
And every villain sleeping
Is gasping now for breath.
Ku-KIuk.
Thrice has the lone owl hooted,
And thrice the panther cried,
And swifter through the darkness
The Pale Brigade shall ride.
No trumpet sounds its coming,
And no drum-beat stirs the air,
But noiseless in tlieir vengeance,
They wreak it everywhere.
Ku-Kluk.
Fly! fly! ye dastard bandits,
Who are bleeding all the land,
The Death Brigade is marching
With viewless sword and brand;
Nor think that from its vengeance
You in deepest dens may hide,
For through the darkest caverns
The Dead Brigade will ride.
Ku-Kluk.
The misty gray is hanging
On the tresses of the East,
And morn shall tell the story
Of the revel and the feast.
The ghostly troop shall vanish
Like the light in constant cloud.
But where they rode shall gather
The collin and the shroud.

judgment, is best adapted to promote the pub

Two questions are presented to the people
in the election which lias been ordered for the
20th of April:
First. Shall the paper submitted by the

Second. Who shall administer the Govern

people of Georgia of all parties and views and

We present to the people no candidate for
Governor as our nominee and the representa
tive of ail our views. We find, since the de
clension of Judge Reese, whose noble, wise
and self-sacrificing, patriotic letter is before
you, a Georgian already in tbe field—an honest,
pure, upright, Christian gentleman, Judge

section of the 11th article, which is in these
