NEWNAN, GEORGIA. Friday Morning, August 14, 1868. FOR PRESIDENT. HORATIO SEYMOUR, OF New York, lant and determinc-d foe, must ever be gratefully remembered, and all the guarantees given in their favor must be faithfully earned into exe cution. That the public lands should be distributed as widely among the people as possible, and should be disposed of either under the pre-emption or homestead law, and sold in reasonable quantities, and to none but actual occupants, at the mini mum prices established by fire Government.— When grants of public lands may be deemed necessary for the encouragement of important I am not a Georgian, but if I had been and had, before the State seceded, taken F>t!s and Arsenals, and otherwise precipitate!

The following is the Platform adopted by the National Democratic Convention at New York: The National Democratic Party, in National Convention assenihh d, reposing its trust in the intelligence, patriotism and discriminating jus tice of the people, standing upon the Constitu tion as the foundation and limitation of the pow ers of the Government and the guarantee of the liberties of the citizen, and recognizing the ques tions of slavery and secession as having been settled for all time to come by the war or tiie vol untary action of the Southern States in Consti tutional Conventions assembled, and never to be renewed or re-agitated, do, with the return of peace, demand— 1st. The immediate restoration of all the States to their rights in the Union under tRo Constitu tion, and of civil government to lhe American people. 2d. Amnesty for all past political offenses, and the regulation of the elective franchise in the States by the citizens, and the payment of the public debt of the United States as rapidly as practicable. 3d. All money drawn from the people by taxa tion, except so much as is requisite for the neces sities of the Government economically adminis tered, to be honestly applied to such payment, and, where the obligations of the Government do not expressly state upon their face, or the law under which they were issued does not provide that they shall bo paid in coin, they ought in right and justice to be paid in the lawful money of the United States. 4th. Equal taxation of every species of prop erty, according to its real value, including Gov ernment bonds and other public securities. 5th. Cue currency for the Government and the people, the laborer and the oilioe-holder, the pensioner and the soldier, the producer and the bond-holder. 6th. Economy in the administration of the Government; the reduction of the standing army and navy; the abolishmetg of the Erceilmen’s Bureau, and all political instrumentalities de signed to secure negro supremacy ; the simplifi cation of the system anti discontinuance of the inquisitorial boards of assessing and collecting internal revenue, so that the burden of taxation may be equalized and lessened, the credit of the. Government and tbo currency made good, the repeal of all enactments for enrolling the State militia into national forces in time ot peace, and a tariff for revenue upon forign imports, and such equal taxation under the internal revenue laws as will afford incidental protection to domestic manufactures, and as will, without impairing the revenue, impose the least burden upon and best promote and encourage the great industrial in terests of the opuutry. . i 7th. The reform of abuses in the administra tion, the expulsion of corrupt men from office, the abrogation of useless offices, the restoration of rightful authority to and the independence ot the Executive and Judiciary Departments of the Government, the subordination of the military to the civil power, to the end that the usurpa tions ol Congress and the despotism of the sword may cease. , „ , , 8tli. Equal rights and protection for naturalized and native-born citizens at home and abroad.— The assertion of American nationality, which ■ shall command the respect of foreign powers, furnish an example and encouragement to people struggling for national integrity, constitutional liberty, and individual rights, and the mainten ance of the rights of naturalized citizens against the absolute doctrines of immutable allegiance and the claim of foreign powers to punish Speech of Hon. W. P. Chilton, of Ala. By invitation, the Hon. W P. Chilton, of Al abama, who was spending a few days in onr community, addressed the Democraiic Club of Coweta on Thursday evening of last week.— The speaker began by saying it mi^ht seem strange in those who knew Him in days past as an old Whig, who fought Democracy for thirty years, to have on now the Democratic harness. It is not on good yet, but before November it will fit snugly. (Cheers.) In days gone by we talked of banks, but Jnow, in the name of all that is good, we have National Banks enough. High tariff men need not j complain, for the United States debt is so large that, to pay it, the tariff will be so high that we shall hear no murmurs on that score. As to internal improvement by the General Gov ernment, we surely cannot say the Radical party has not interferred with internal affairs to the disgust of all. But, my countrymen, these issues remind me of the reply of old friend Meek, foreman of Judge Kelly’s Grand Jury. Both of these men were antiquarians, and fond of displaying their acquaintance with things anoie.it. Judge Kelly was charging the jury, and in touching upon the mutations of time, said, “Where is Cicero? Where is Demosthenes? Where is Aristides the Just?” Meek could stand this no longer, and at this point arose and said, “ May it please your Honor, they tire dead and he d—d a thousand years ago!” (Laughter.) Bo] with these issues to which I have re ferred. They are dead and will not be revived in our day. Then iet us drop piejudices about names and come up to our duty like men. Our coun try calls for the voice and vote of every man who loves her and shall we who were Whigs because onr party was conservative, now stand aside and refuse still to be conservatives be cause of name? No, never! Suppose my wife and children were on hoard a vessel, and the storm was raging and threatening to en- gnlph them, and I, alone, was powerless to rescue them, and a party of men should offer to assist me; would I stand aside a* d refuse to join them or let them co-opeiate with me? No, but on the contrary, thank them fur their offer and ask them no questions. So with the Democratic party, who seeing the liberty of the people, both North and South, and the Constitution of our fathers endangered, have resolved to attempt their salvation, and it be hooves us to unite with them and cheer them in their noble resolution. Because the Northern people, in their State capacities, broke the compact of Union in an nulling in their limits that clause of the Con stitution which required the rendition of fugi tive slaves, the Southern States seceded, not to destroy the Constitution but to preserve it.— For the part I took in that movement I have no pangs of conscience, and feel with up- | (A pause—no man rose.)

In this strain hr continued much longer, to the great delight of his audience. He was repeatedly cheered, and liis anecdotes were so happily told that the meeting was often convulsed with laughter.
