Rooms State Central Exec’ve Com tee, X National Democratic Party of Ga., t 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. True extract from the minutes. J. R. Sneed, Secretary. ADDRESS OF THE STATE CENTRAL EX ECUTIVE COMMITTEE OF THE DEMO CRATIC PARTY OF GEORGIA. rKE j Ga, \ 68. J 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. Death's Brigade.
