They feel and know that the life blood of that party is en mity to them and their interest, and hence v. ill exert themselves to the utmost to slay the monster. The only planks in the Radical plat form were prepared with direct aim of stabbing Southern rights, and were the South to-day not connected with politics there would be no Rad ical party. The citizens of ten States must be oppressed or Radicalism dies. Who, then, m Georgia will not take an interest for the suc cess of Conservative Democracy—the party of the Constitution, of liberty, of peace, of pros perity, of the equality of the States, and the lights of the white race? Wcwillnee. Trying to Explain.—The Radical journals are making strenuous efforts to explain away Grant’s Jew order, by which he cast an un necessary insult upon the Jewish nation and expelled from his Military Department such Israelites as were within its bounds. The at tempt to make it go down are really futile, and so will Grant be convinced after the Jewish votes arc counted. No Jew who has a particle of pride of nation, or love for himself or peo ple, can be induced under any circumstances to vote for a man who has thus treated himself or brethren. It seems to us that Radical edi tors would act according to the dictates of common sense to cease agitating this subject, for say what you please of the Jewish nation, they love peace, but they are not such fools as to mistake oppression for peace, or enemies fur friends. Probable Action of the Rational Demo cratic Convention. The members of the opposition are so deeply interested in Democratic success that they not only desire to select our candidates for Presi dent. and Vice President, but also modestly hint that the platform must, under any cir cumstances, contain certain planks. Moreover the Chicago Convention cried wolf in anticipa tion by pronouncing against repudiation, and sought, by that step, to force the Democracy to advocate the opposite. All of these inuendoes, hints and suggestions of party and action will go for naught. If, however, they arc really seeking to ascertain the course the victorious Democracy will pur sue, we will give them our ideas on the subject, which they can take <ptaiitu:n ralcat. In the first place, the advice of Brick Pome roy and his ilk will never be considered. Such men are incapacitated by nature to lead, and reflecting men know it. Conscious that the nomination of Judge Cliaso would be a fatal stab at the cherished principles of the party, and cause dissatisfaction and divisions, the friends of the Chief Justice will be politely in formed that the interests at stake in this con test are so vital and success so necessary that experiments or risks cannot be made or taken, and therefore Mr. Chase will not be the nom inee. The claims of Mr. Pendleton will be thus disposed of : While we, say a majority of the Convention, acknowledge the ability, states manship and true devotion to the Constitution of the honorable gentleman, also believing his election possible, yea, probable, and that he would be the choice, under ordinary circum stances, of an overwhelming majority of good aud true Democrats; still Mr. Pendleton has commoted with his name the idea of a repudja- gressmen that it would be stricken out. Yet they kept ail these things concealed from the people, put them to sleep, and now the pros pect is they will wake up with the Sheriff at the door, backed by enraged creditors from whom they thought they were tree. We have read letters of recent date from debt ors to creditors, giving notice of their deter mination to pay no more of their old debts.— Such conduct as this has enraged the creditor class, and debtors will find .it now harder to make terms than before. What a shame thus to deceive the people. The authors of (his crime should be held up to public execration. The nows we publish from Congress is to the effect that the only clauses of the relief section left are those repudiating debts contracted to aid the “rebellion and those founded on the hire or purchase of slaves. Mark it, even these will be as collectable as they were before the action of the Convetion. What Georgian will now trust the promises of the Radical party ? We have negro suffrage but no relief.

Bokhara, at least, with its two million inhabitants, will remain virtually Russian, while the extinction of the military power of the neighboring Khanates must eventually follow. The first great advantage that will accrue to Russia from her success will he that the trade, not only of Bokhara, but of the surrounding country, will be diverted from its present channel and pass into Russian bands. The siik, leather, cotton aud jewelry which now reach the West though British Ineia will in future find their market in Russia, and the trade in ail these articles will doubtless be largely developed, now that a direct and secure I mode of accession to a European market has been secured. To acquire the control of this trade has long been the ardent desire of the Russian Government, and its efforts seem now to have been attended with a full measure of success. The news will prob.ijlv create some excite ment among the Anglo-Indian party, known as the “ Rassophobists,” who look upon every Russian success as a menace to British India, and have repeatedly urged the coaouest of Afghanistan, at all costs, upon the British Government, as a measure of security against Russian ambition. But England seems now to watch Russian progress without alarm, and to rely on the almost impassable defiles of her northern frontier, her command of the sea, From the public press it seems that the Dem ocratic nomination for the Presidency, is nar rowed down to Gen. Hancock, of Pennsylvania, and Mr. Pendleton, of Ohio. 'The nomination is nut a question merely of statesmanship. If tills was the criterion of selection, we do not suppose Gen. Hancock's name would have been brought forward at all for the Presidency. He is a soldier by profes sion and not a statesman ; and for this reason, if there was no other objection, in the ordinary course of public affairs, we would have been opposed to Gen. Hancock s nomination for the Presidency. Aud frwn the fact that Mr. Pen dleton was a statesman—a faithful and able statesman —we would have supported him without the least hesitation against G<n.
