Tlie illncK-lieiir Convention.
Tho Democratic Convention if the
First Congicssional District of Georgia,
nvsviidilod at Ulackshour on Wednesday
tie 21sl iust. About twei.ty-flve conn
lies were represented hy delegates
and it was cue of the largest Conven
tions evi r assembled in the D'sti iel; but
tmth demands that we slioidd also state,
that it. was very boisterou a in ils di-liber- ;
ntiuns. In fact, wo never attended n
political meeting, whete less order was
iiiainta'iicd. Nevertheless, there was
)io and fference of opinion up m the great
political issues of tho day; in ties re- I
sped but one sentiment animated the
assemblage, mid every man present ap
peared determined to wage unrelenting
warfare against too enemies of constitu
tional liberty. The boisterous con
fusion to which we refer, whilst it \v a
- matter for regret, did not, and will
not interfere with the gn at olj ct to be
attained by the Democratic party.
Wo have not time nor space to pub
lish at length, tlie present week, the pro
ceedings of tho Colivent'on, and must :
content onrsell by announcing that Col. J
W. W. I’aine, i t Savannah, was nomi
nated as the eandidute of the party fr
the uncxfiNod trim of the forty first
Congress, and Col A. T. Mclntyre, ot
Thomas County, the candidate loi the
Forty second Congress.
The resolutions, introduced by our oa
teemed follow townsman, Judge Ifari»i:n.
and which were adopted, ate two in
number and very brief: merely rmlui se-
the action of the State Cunvcntn n,
and urging Demoernts everywhere to
don the armor of battle, and be n unit:
in defence <d the principles of the m»-

We understand, hum ever, that there is a pr p
o'ition before the Legislature, for the lease of
the Road which will, if concurred in, under the
circumstances, be acceptable to the people.
The proposal is, to lease the Road, rolling stock,

The Lmopeiui Conflict.
It U impossible for us ( on account of the
crowded condition of our columns, to give tele
graphic details of the mighty movements on the
chess-board of Europe King William, of Drws-
S sin, through his mouth piece, Bhmurek, po.-i
j lively refuses any terms for peace, do not
j surrender a portion of French territory; and
therefore the war will continue indefinitely,
j Davis is surrounded by the Prussians, and the
seigecommenced, but it will, in all probability,
he some days before a great battle occurs. Tin
following are the latest dispatches,
A telegram from Prussian headquarters makes
a great reduction in the number of prisoners
surrendered at Fetlan. There were only thirty
thousand; killed and wounded, fifty thousand.
King William refuses to recognize the Provia
ional Government, and will only recognize the
Emperor or Marshal Baz.iino.
A committee of German vvoikmen jnake a
protest against the war.
The cattle plague has attacked the cattle of
the Prussian army.
Ministers of England, Austria, Italy and Tur
key have left Paris.
A balloon has arrived at Paris from Metz
with letters.
Tot ns, September I*. —The Diplomats arrived
hero to day. A great number cf volunteers
parsed northward this mornirg. It is reported
that General Durot, with eighty thousand troops,
will ocupy the woods of Clamont and Monloen.
There was a fight yesterday between the Prus
sians and three regiments of the line, some bat
talions of the Mobile Garde, and a battery of
artillery. The Prussians retired.
Later. -The Diplomats left Paris hastily last
night, being Informed that a heavy attack would
be made to-dav.
There, was hard fighting yesterday and to-day

“War, PesTlcnfC and Famlfts.”
This triad of earth’s weightiest woes, says the
Macon Telegraph, is ever inseparable. They
[ travel hand-in-hand or in quick sued ssion. The
ouiit.lt is oven now just bidding adieu to the pes
tilences which follow in the train war -small
pox and other camp maladies, and the whole
category of miasmatic and other diseases which
follow the social, dietetic and topographical
distm bances of war. Wlmt an awful picture of
sickness and death is now before unbappv
France, as the inevitable result of this frightful
military convulsion! The beginning of it we j
see iu the following dispatch to the New York |
World:
Osttno. September 13.--Late advices from i
Sedan, by way of Charleroi, inform us t hat the
German armies have been compelled to move
: from the frontier, not only by constant (torar- ;
! tians into Belgium, but by Ilia outbreak of an j
! awful pestilence ol a typhoid type. 'I he mortal- |
! by. both among the German army and among
tLe inhabitants of that region, is fearf,:l. The
j improvised vispitals are gorged, mid tho sick
j and the dying in many cases forced to be ex
posed to the inclemency of the weather, which is
: very bid. A single Bavarian regiment lias bs:
J more men by illness since the surrender than in
the four notions in which it was engaged before
the surrender. Nothing but the she I clou of the
regiment remains. An awful stench pervades
the air fir miles from the thinly covered graves
if the fallen and from the putrefying remains of
unburied horses. The pestilence is spreading
t{trough the villages in the vicinity. It is inten
ded to establish a sanitary cotdmi on the Del
giati frontier.
Paris, we fear, after a protracted siege, will!
| be almost uninhabitable for years. The immense |
[amount of earth thrown up on the twenty-four
: miles of breastworks around the city- the great
! fosse of tlie same length, over twenty feet wide
and w ith eighteen feet of still water in it—the
destruction of all the magnificent shade trees—
the great, venerable oaks of hundreds of years,
and all tlie shrubbery for tunny square miles a
round the city, and all the disorder, tilth, squal
or, destruction, misery and dines of a p otracted
and desperate struggle—must necessarially en
ger. .i*r a terrible amount ol disease and mortali
ty.

Tbe Amer t c>m ffnirm, a very dirty organ ot
he Da Heals, published n't Macon, vein mcotly
pro testa against negroes aspiring to the position
of Congressmen. In a laiefesue the editor says:
• We hear it assorted that colored men are as
piring in iwmost every district in the State.—
While Vo do not object to a min-because of his
color, we do object when he is unfit, the same as
we would if an unfit \yh;te should present hi n
soll and (*«, ecially when his color will jeopar
dize the success ol his party. It teems to be a
prevailing Heniiinent with colored in n thm il
they are free and equal, they must, irrespective
of th* ir qualifications fill all the prominent offi
ces of the party. If the course is persisted in
in this Slate, now that reconstruction l»'c tuple
ted, (here will soon beyfo itfpubl can party at
all; neither the colored men nor their white
friend* will hold the offices, for they will be gob
bled up by tin* Democracy ”
And again: • We have been persistent in our
war ugaiifvt the assumed rights of whites over j
blacks. We shall be just as persistent against
blacks when they ass line to die‘a to to tbe whites
as now seems to be the disposition of the colored I
leaders on the preemption that the majority j
of Jtepubiictocs in the .State are colored. When
ever ilit colored people begin to make the fight
of ince, then we are driven Jo the defence of our
own race, and in that category will be biclndi and
every white Pepnblicau. We have upheld the
colored people, not because they are colored,
b it because it was a principle in the creed we
alvovite to guarantee to every man equal
rights an equal chance in the race of life. We
deem this principle Godgiven and shall main
tain it under all cireumstanceft.”
How will the radical colored voters In this
portion of Georgia.-appreciate the foregoing of
ficial proclamation? J. Clark Hwayz j, the Mdi>
or of the paper from which we quote, is one of
the great expounders of radicalism, and he fells
the colored men, that they are free to vote for
Kiidicalrt but are,totally on account cf col
or, to hold office. Dear that in and if
you have any resentment-exercise il on tbe next
election.
Rhdf cal Cont ention
The Republican Executive Committee, at a

tion calling a Convention for etch Congre>.«.ion

urge Republicans to organise forthwith, and

An Atlanta paper has the following gloomy
picture of the situation tip at Atlanta. We mo t
heartily second the proposition for a break up
of the corrupt concent: but tho sugg ;.-tiou will
go unheeded, so long as the potent influence of
SO.OO per day can be made effective:
We are rapidly dieting to the conclusion tint
the people oi Georgia should en masse demand
lk: immediate adjournment of the present Leg
islature. Scarcely is one iniquitous measure
killed before another is sprung. One deviltry
is hardly cold before another is hatched. The
people are trembling all the time in anticipu
ton of wrong legislation. The Governor is in
collusion with every vile conspiracy against the
prosperity of the State. The lobbies are be-’
seiged by unscrupulous adventurers with wick
ed schemes to bribe through, or trick through,
or force through by unholy combinations. II
the honesty of the body is all right on a question,
the strongest fears are rife that, its sagacity wili
be at fault. Expensive time is consumed in'di -
cussing measures that bear the stamp of i a cali
ty so strongly that they should be killed instant

The Republic and Liberty.
King William has thrown off the mask and
now as>erts himselt iu his true character: a grim
rigid merciless despot, w hoso utter contempt for
peoples and popular rights, words cannot ade
quate! He scouts the Republic asun
worthy of recognition, and as destitute of all
shadow of authority. The God-invoking pro
clamatkns that the war was only against a Dona
parte now stand forth a fl’msy inetence'a sluravd
<•-vice inspired by Bismarck, to cripple the Em
pire by dissension within itself. The invader
merely sought aid from the very | cople he pro
po-ed invading. Napoleon is overthrown.
