STOVAlIi, Associate Editor Thursday Morning; March 39, i860. ■“ What they”Think7~ -We.conclude to day tho opinion* of the Democratic press of Georgia, upon the action of the March Convention.— Vfp gaveon Tuesday those of tho Gm- stitutionalist, Dalton Timet;Federal Union, Columbus Timet, Macon Telegraph, At- . \ox\i*InUlligenccr, Savannah Morning Netoi and the Cartersville Exprut. We* wind ■tip with the' Southerner & Advertiser; ■Lawrencevllle News and Athens Ban- the ivseMmen1 that has been rank)ing j in the bosom* of hit political enemies f for year*. And to secure this .end, thoj Southern Rights wing par excellence of the I Democratic party hnVc ignored the uh- j equivocal declaration of those right* I by tho Supreme dourt. ’ . “They had, ra-1 they ho wrong than Cobb should bd'Presi-1 dent.” If demagogues riritl tricksters I are permitted to rule in State Conven- j tions, we must expect them to rule inf the Federal Government. If tho peojl pie will submit to one they will submit | to tho other, and there is ho help for [ us. ’ - 1 ner f . ‘ The first named paper expresses no . opinion at all, but is prudently and eon* titUntfy silent. We presume that like If n. Cfa£pins when called on to testify i|i “BardeU ini. Pickwick,” "his feelings were tqo many for him.” But not so<j with the New. It puts no cheek upon the exuberance, of itsjoy over what, it ' calls the “overthrow qf Cobbocracy.” It indulges in the most unbounded exul tation at the .thought that “the action .of the self constituted. December Con vection whioh declared Howell Cobb to he the first choice of the Georgia Dem ocracy for the Presidency was,-properly jreimlcfid'j”' that a resolution was passed requiring the delegates to Charleston to { vote as unit in that body, and that a majority of them being for Alexander E. Stevens, Howell Cobb cannot get a tingle vote. The JVcim .then launches out into aw ful denunciations against “one man power;" speaks of the “great Autocrat as fallen;” “the Democracy of Georgia have demolished his throne , and shat-i tered the sceptre of his jj poweroon gratuiates the country that no such “in fluences as he. had been accustom ed to wield ean again bo brought to bear in h^hehalf; the cohesive power of publia plunder can no longer hold his distolrihg cohorts together,” and al though*^ subtle, intriguing and demago- giucal politician may for awhile feed hisj faithful satellites with official pap and| thus retain flis power,” yet in a govern- ment like ofcn*‘all such oorruptionswi! be fcrreted ‘out arid a terrible retribution] visited upon sudh-dangerous enemies to Republican principles, as those who] impair the purity'of the ballot box through selfish and other motives.”— We _mMy, thjuk^ that; the > News is c^l' AsidV. unmerciful thus to make jwjjp.the rtoW.ol.tiiis _ procession,,of / jpfemocw . p#(^(faaei the' Athens JBahncr'dtoped ihl 'fining and trailing in '• tho dust.— pRe»t >n da^ sJ go**: by; it ’has - , beenl*. .triumphal) “ thrown to the breexe after hard Ifbuj ba»lei-f6r Howell.(lobb in ’ the "g pld. Sixth, .it is truly a very sad speoto- , Were jt.iiot. that this thought stirs up, '^“r®rtpest.symp*tKeswe• would not exited by its’ bearer's lugubrious coun- tenaace and choking utterance. “With "h^D^mom^' * ^^ voi . n ^ on " down resplutjiqns. taking high- Southern gtOBud jlp«x ; . the territorial question, the only yitift-question n<Jw before. the ooqntry,” andhepays thoreaders of tho Bo^Ur “will be surprised to learn that the State of Georgia was efraid to ex press an opinion on this. subject.” The Banner tiilnks “the resolution was voted dowp becausejfcwaa- ooupled with oiir recommending Hon. Howell' Cobb to the.Charleston Convention.” It' char- “the.anti-Cobb faction was tho- roogWy-’brganisod before the assembling of titoCobventioni led on by- Hon. - Sol- omjn'Cohen of Savannah.” It thinks •'16?. Stephens’ friends have placed him :in a\wri>hg position before the country by producing the.impression that Doug las’.influence would be thrown for him 6{ififlo*ton!: tCofivdntion. Then In conclusion it alludes to one or two in- tPrqigpg facta that developed them- ' wfcioh was that “Cher- okucouMif the'retidawe Gov. Brown vo- 1 ted against'this* strong Southern resolu- tions. and it was pretty generally under- stood tMdt was through the the influ- Pttoe 'dfjthe Governor himself." Thia trul/ts avefysuspiciou* circumstance and fully warrants the Reamer in saying that *Uf it - turns out to be truo, it knows one man, who has been a warm Mend •rid supporter of his, whose rote he will never get agaiif.” - . - . After reading the oomments we have given, the conclusion of the whole mat- -teris plainly this:‘ The March Conven tion was oalled by the enemies of Gov. Cobb, Vpd for,no ofcher reason than be cause he was-reopmmended to the Char leston; Convention by the Deoember Convention, and for no other' purpose than to defeat his nomination, fw the Presidency; and notwjthstandiiifc How- eli Cobb is to day the most popular man not only in the Democratio party, but in the State of Georgia, yPt by suporlor management and dark intrigues the! will of the majority haa - been utterly disregarded and frustrated; ‘ to 'gratify 9^Hon.J..L. M. Curry of Alabai in his late speech in Congress says of theEansaa Bill: . - t “.Whatever may have been the pur pose of the framer of that bill—and be says in his contribution to Harper, that it was to remove any obstacle to the free exercise of popular sovereignty— it wasaupported at the South because of its repeal of the Missouri restriction and because we thought we had secured safeguard against territorial unfriend- lr legislation, by. the provision rendering ail such legislation subject to the Con stitution or the United States, and by the farther provision giving an appeal to the courts of the United States, in all cases where property in slaves -was involved. If we were mistaken, this power to exolude slavery by unfriendly legislation—this Squatter Sovereignty covered up under ambiguous language in the Kansas bill, after the repeal of the Missouri restriction—is but a refined imitation of the barbarity of the petty Celtic tyrant, who fed his prisoners, on salted food until they called eagerly for drink, and then let down on empty cup into the dungeon and left them to die of thirst.” That’s so. rA correspondent of the Mobile Rtgitfer, a paper that advocates Doug las’ nomination, contains a letter from whioh We take this extract: Savannah, Mar 17, I860.—Hurrah for Georgia I The people of theState have met m solemn Convention, and have taken tho reins of government out of the hands of demagogues and wirepul lers. The Deoember Convention; with waqlutions endorsing tiie Hbh. How-- ell Cobb, ha* been voted down by a ma jority of twelve. So ‘-'the gqptigman from Georgia who presides .over the Treasury Department*' is not the ohoioe of, bis native State; can’t “rally the masses” on the soil where he was reared; can’t oany a single endorser to Charles ton; laid on. the shelf for another term of four years.
