Hi ntkh.— On our first page wMI be found a highly interesting letter from our able representative in lie General Ah sembly. It will be seen that he made a manly and determined effort for the retention ol Brooks county in the Ist Congressional district ; and the sound argument advanced in support of the plan submitted by him for redistrioting the State, would have prevailed, if the arrangement reported by the Committee had not been “cut and dried,” and the pledged support of a major ity of the House secured in advance. Capt. Hunter is properly severe in his criticism, anil no doubt will receive the approval oi his constit uency. Cel. W. 11. IlninH' for Cone res*. There is no scarcity of aspirants for Con gressional honors in the .Second District. A1 most every tow n contains one, or more, peculiar ly qualified for the responsible position, and ready to serve the “dear people,” at any ex pense of time and money. And we confess that a number of the gentlemen suggested would, riouhth'se, do credit to themselves and confer honor on the district. If permitted a seat in the Congress of the United States. But of all the names announced, not one “fills the bill,” ac cording to our idea of what are the qualifica tion* necessary to constitute a first-class Con gressman. In ho responsible and exalted posi tion, the occupaut should be honest, conscien tious, consistent, moral, capable, and equal In ability for any emergency that, may i-rfse. We do not like to Interfere w ith the plans of the politicians, but the people in this end of the district, feeling satisfied that we have the man foi the emergency—that Col. Wiu.iam B. Bkn m:t possesses all the qualifications enumerated— will present his name to the nominating con ventlon. and ask that he he made the standard bearer of the Democratic party in the Con gressional contest. Being of a modest and retired disposition, he strenuously objects to Ids friends interfering with the previous arrangements of others; but fully recognising the good old fashioned princi ple, that 4 *the office should seek the man, and not the man the office.” we have concluded to disregard the Colonel’s expressed desire, (which is influenced by extreme modesty), and if pos sible force him to apply his talents, energy and good sense, for the interest and welfaic o! the people of this 2d Congressional district. He has no right to stand aloof when his services are needed. No man stand* higher in the District, intel lectually. morally, socially, or politically than Col. Bknnkt; and in Congress ho will bo the right man In the right place. He is a lawyer of character and eminence; an orator of ability, -—practical, eloquent, and abounding in origi nal wit- -he is the peer of any man in the Dig. triet. There is one deficiency, however, with our friend Bknnkt : lie is not a politician, and cannot stoop to the dirty woik sometimes de manded of those who follow said profession Plain, unassuming, and practical in all his ideas, lie can espouse no cause that has not lor its foundation, truth and honor. \Ve therefore give notice, that the friends of this great and good man—this modest, retiring, unassuming Christian gentleman Col. W. I>. Bknnkt—wi T l present his name at the nomina ting convention, to beheld at Albany, on the 4th day of September, and ask that he be made the nominee of the party. Tke IV or Hi (Tirol Inn Election. The 1 1 tost dispatches from North Carolina leave some doubts as to the Democracy securing a complete victory at the recent election in that Ntate. A dispatch from New York on the fob, says that inUdligence received there, by the conservatives, Is to the effect that 77 counties had been heard from and Men iman (Con.) was 1,100 ahead. Bndieal reports, however, of same date, represent that Caldwell (Bad.) was 1,434 vote® ahead in 74 counties, and that the remaining counties would probably reduce bis majority to 300. We have no facilities to reconcile these conflicting reports, and consequently must a wnil the official count. It is generally conceded, however, that the Democrats will have an over whelming majority in the State Legislature, and five out of the eight Congressmen. Conorkssionai, Aspirant*.— Among the gen tlemen favorably mentlonep in convention with the nomination for Congress in this the Second District, we Cud the following, who are well and favorably known: Col. Carey W. Styles and On. G. J. Wright, of Albany. Judge A. H. Hansel 1. of Thomusville. and Col. Flemming, ot ? Bain bridge. * The fKcbmntid Ri.ijniter par*: §, one of the charges against Mr. Oreeiejr is ~tb:rt Im*tiep written go much against tlte South. Well, we guess Mr. Greeley 1 nsp’t fr*A aioch the udvuDtuge of the °'*.u;h oi* ;fe*t score,” A ü blri>itfhl Out” ( unfuiition - L*tt itHhe a I’uitid Peoplrl The Atlanta Sun publishes*a call lor a Con-. veniron of "the true Democracy,” to assemble 1 at Atlania on the 20tb of August, “for consul* tntion and adv it* merit oh to the best course to be pursued in the maintenance of the principles of the party and ol ConHtitutional liberty.” This call has attached the names of tuxnly cit izens of Georgia, and among th« number wo find J that of “J. L. Si ward, Thomas county.” Thib , is rather f.urprihing, for previous to the Balti- j more Convention, we were informed that Col. Seward, was favorable to the acceptance of Greeley by the Democracy. Our informant may, however, have misunderstood the position ; then assumed by the Colonel. If the Conven-i tion meets, as is suggested on the 20tb irist., we j trust that alter “consultation,” it will advise i the disaffected Democracy to “accept the situa tion” and aid in the election of Horace Greeley, as the least of two evils - the alternativ es pre sented to tbc American people. Jt is true the past record of Greeley is not of that character to influence enthusiasm in support of the mou; but we must remember that a great jmnciple is involved—the re-establishment of constitution ill liberty. It Ik for this the Democratic party temporarily surrenders itH individuality, and for the certainly of .success in the enforcement of said principle, accepts as a standard hearer, on*- who has ever been its avowed enemy. If tb* Northern Democracy can make this sacrifice, cer tainly the South should not complain. The man who 1h drowning, or who sees his wif i and chil dren perishing In flames, cannot he censured for j adopting any method, not criminal in itself, by j which to save himself, or those dear to him. | And is this not the condition of the country?; Has not the present Grant administration used every effort to crush the manhood of the South? j I In# and does it,not attempted to deprive us of j every right inherent in American freemen? In the language of the impulsive Voorhees, onr ! property Is not only at the mercy of mercenary j vagabonds, but under the legislation of the past few years, husband or father, w ife or mother, j son or daughter, in the entire South, could be • consigned indefinitely to prison, on the mere suspicion of any brutal or depraved spy, wheth er while or black, there to lay, without hope ot speedy trial or release, on bail, until those who had deprived them of the benefits of the writ of habeas carpus, either turned them out or packed a jury for their conviction. When we reflect on ■ these things, is it strange that men of the Foeth arc ready to abandon party lines, and unite with j even a political opponent, in ibe hope of release ! from the brutal despot’s power? And we have this consolation : Mr. Greeley | stands pledged by the strongest obligations over resting upon an honorable man, to bestow upon the South the blessings of a just, kind and fra tar nul policy on the part of the government If he fails to redeem said obligation, then indeed would he be accursed among men. Then let us banish Jewry semblance of doubt; let us have confidence in the integrity of Horace Greeley. lie is an old man, rapidly descending the declivity of life, and will soon enter the grave; and therefore no incentive is presented for him to net false to a confiding people. In the eloquent language, of Hon. D. W. Voorhees, let us hope that the experiment may be a com plete success, that his election may banish mis rule and plunder from our midst, restore peace in reality ns well as in name, bring back a cheer ful and contented devotion to the laws of the country and a pride in the flag, which affords an equal protection to all citizens. Let us hop** that the deadly paralysis so long inflicting the 1 South nild destroying her vast productive re sources may he speedily succeeded by perfect j health and vigor. If our government is to !»«■ restored to its natural proportions and strength, our .States must be ns free In one section as in the other. We must have no lines where free dom is halted by the bayonet on American soil, and when all are treated alike by the govern ment they will all bear to it the same allegiance. Whatever may have been the bloody struggles of the past, when this kind of a union of hearts in support of the government shall take place, having for Its basis the principles ot justice, lib erty and equality, then will this nation rise like a strong man after sleep and go forth to new glories, renewing the purity of its youth in con nection with the gigantic proportions of the age. Loutsvii.i.e Industrial Exposition.—We have received an invitation to attend the Grand N;i- : tlonal Industrial Exposition, which opens in ! Louisville. Ky , September 3d* and continues | until October Bth, 1872. This exposition will attract to Louisville thousands of people from every section of the West and Southwest, and i an opportunity will be enjoyed of examining the evidences of the progress made in this country in the art-, inventions and manufuclines. Near ly every State in the Union will exhibit its work, ■ and consumers and manufacturer will be ena- j bled to judge of the wants and resources of the j country. Deduced fare on railroads and steam boats have been arranged, and ample hotel ue I comraodations secured for all wha attend. The : Louisville Exposition Building covers nearly an entire square in the heart of the city, is built of brick, and will seat on the first floor alone near ly 20,000 people. The State Bond llobherv* The Committee appointed to investi gate the management of the Western n ii d Atlantic Railroad, under the admtu> ; istration of Bullock, Blodgett Cos., made their report to the Legislature on the Ist inst. The report is voluminous and startling in its expose of the \vl ole~ Sitle robbery of the State. We have not room tor a detailed sy nopsis, and confine ourself to general results arrived at l»y the Committee. It appears that during the twelve months of Blodgett’s administration, $1,464,000 were leccived only $450,000 paid into the treasury—and debts to the amount 0f5600,003 were contracted; the bulk of which still rema ; m* unpaid. In the year 1860, under the admin is trail on of Col. Uulbert, the roceipm- of the road were Bttie I* than 1870, when Blodgett had control, and the expenses were $985,0001 In 1870, however, on* ■ der the system of fraud and robbery pre vailing, ti e expenses reached the enor mous sum 0f52,043-000. X«»t less than one million dollars, (says the correspon dent of the Savannah New in bis synop* sis of the report,) was illegally and fraudulently taken from the T-easury I during this time. A large portion ol j this sum can never be recovered by the; State. In all cases where the parlies | who are liable Could be reached, de mends have been made. The property purchased by B-odgutt and Kimball with) stolen funds has been attached. The; total amount due the road is $499,000. J 01 this amount Blodgett is down foi ! $102,000; Hotchkiss for $4,000; the Sen j field Rolling Mill Company for $17,000; J. P. Harris for $6 000; If. P. Farrow ! for $3,600; J. I. Whitaker for $14,000; V. A. oask ill for >16,000; John Erskine ! for $73; A. L. Harris for $8,000; 11. 0. i Hoyt for $197,000, and J. P. Harris for | $20,000. Grttlfy’n Abuw. The Cincinnati Commercial nays, with much force: There is notan intelligent, or even semi-intelligent Democrat in the land who docs not know that Horace Greeley was the bitter but consistent enemy of hispaity fur thirty years—not one tl at docs not know, too, that he em plojxd the tersest and most vigorous English in commending it to the deris ion of the peopld. Inasmuch, then, as the Democrats, notwithstanding these ' facts, have resolved to support Greeley j f.r President, is it not rather a waste ol time and space for Radical newspapers to fill their columns with choice extracts from Mr. Greeley’s writings douuucialo |ry of the Democratic party?

Bruton, appointed to represent tie million dollars of stock held by the State in the Atlantic and Gulf Railroad Company. The Commit toe made a strong argument in f.ivor ol carrying out the orgigiual design of this road, and placing it in connection with the Gulf at Pensacola, Mobile and New Orleans, which can.now begone by’ tbe construction of 165 miles of railroad from from Buinbridgg to Pollard, in Ala bama, where it will connect w i#i finished lines of railway to all theso places. They say such is the poverty of the soil which this road traverses, that its local trafic can never return the invest ment. The whole tsxiblc property- of the region—leaving out Chatham aod Dougherty counties—does not exceed fifteen millions and the whole amount of cotton derived from 150 miles of the dis tance in 1871' was only 2,236 bales. They say il the gap between B unbridge and Pollard were tilled tip, they would have connection between Savannah and Mobile in a distance of i\6 miles, and to New Orleans in 616 miles—while the distance via Macon and Montgomery would be 705 miles.
