AffrO U T i I d HueMmt M. DmXELL, I»ropil3tor. c. it. ownriZziranAii, Editor. Tuesday Morning, July 6, 1875 •‘THE CiREELEY (’111 LO.-OIMI V » Wo lm<l lioped fur huiiio weeks Unit there would bt no further attempt made, at least iu Georgia, to fix the status of the Democratic party, in view of the next or any future Presidential campaign, on the line of “the philosophy of Gree- loyisra.” We had also hoped timt^he subject would not again be referrod to in any manner, ns it is a very disturbing element in the Democratic party, and n revival of it can do no possible good, but certainly a great deal of harm to the unity and harmony of the party. Why n certain class of politicians do not see the wisdom of iguoring entirely any ref- e;ence to the disastrous policy of 1872, instead exerting their peworand influence to ‘lie promotion of the Democratic par ty On strictly Democratic principles, is difficult to understand. And why these unfortunate issues should he constantly shaken in the faces of the Democracy, is a problem wo cannot understand -except upon the hypothesis that we have a few would-be leaders who cither desire to rad icalize the party or to weaken its forces in the interest of the opposition. It'is'enough for nny tine Democrat to know that the great body of the party— the •* rank mid file”--accepted the fal lacious policy of 1872 under protest; and every intelligent Dcmoer.it at all familiar with the temper of the party, must know that n similar attempt, in 1870, however remote it may be, will be more disastrous than that of the Greeley finitno. Those who arc acquainted with the people must understand that they {thepeople) will not submit to lie led into any lutu e blundering policy of the sort. They nccop ed the issues of the campaign of 1872-under protest; they accepted “the situation” with the full uud explicit un derstanding Unit they took Greeley ns the less of evils anil not as an eiidol's menjt of the Republican pla'form constructed at Cincinnati and endorsed at HaUimore Sufth we know to have been the feelings of prominent Democrats at the time and sinco tho fallacious policy of that cam puign.was dem i.islruted in the most dis graceful defeat known to Ameiicaii po litical history. Mr. F. II. Alfrieud, an Atlanta cor respondent of the Courier-Journal, who seems utterly and irretrievably commit ted to Groely ism, in n letter to that pa per, attempts to commit Hon. 15. II. Hill squaroly to the support of the same doc trine, notwithstanding Mr. Hill, in the recent Congressional campaign in the Ninth, pronounced himself tho foe of re construction, upon tho principles of which tho eutiro fabric of “ the Greeley philosophy” rests, and without which it could not possibly have existed. Mr. Hill defeated Estes in part because lie was so opposed to reconstruction aud the infamies growing out of tlieso measures, and because Estes, os wo understand it, endorsed the reconstruction usurpations. And, yet, Mr. Alfriend attempts to show that Mr. Hill was elected as an endorse ment of Grceloyisra, because, forsooth, Mr. Hill was an active Greeley advocate in 1872, when, in fact, tho question of Grceleyism had nothing whatever to do with the issues of that campaign, and was scarcely thought of. If the Democratic par.y is to bo again led into the so-called Liberal trap, there aro thousands of Democrats who will not follow. Upon tills point there is an in flexible purposo upon the part of ‘the masses not to be so misled—a fact known to every man who is at all familiar with popular sentiment and do not go to so called leaders for his information ns to tho popular feeling. Aud we would humbly but earnestly warn tho people against tho leadership of men who thus assume to speak for and to mako up their opinions for them in backroom con claves composed of politicians who have no fixed political principles outside of present purposes or selfish political de signs. Nowhere else in the South, or nny where in the country, save in Georgia, has there been nny recent attempt made to fix tho status of the Democratic party upon tho line of “tho philosophy of Gree'- leyism”—an issue or feature iu our poli tics which is left everywhere else to fade out of sight as a blunder to be retrieved by an utter ignorance of its having ever existed, and by a return to tho nneient landmarks of tho old party. Gov. Allen, of Ohio, Eaton, of Con- necticutt, nmj Stephens, of Georgia, aro truo exponents of tho Democratic spirit of tho country. Mr. Hill is another in his declaration in tho recent enmpain that he was a foe to reconstruction, and that if lie ever hated anything it was re construction, and that it should he the business of his life to make it odious. If Mr. Hill is to do this, how can he accom plish the noble and patriotic task by an adherence to a “philosophy" based upon a recognition of tho reconstruction nsur- IIIMIll.lt, im.VT Hit AN KIJITOH. Render, don’t lie an editor—not in hot weather, anyhow. You had better shuck yourself and lie in the shade and fan j ourself. It is much more comfortable and a great deal nicer. Hence, our ad vice, “don’t be an editor,” unless, you can have your lager beer cool and lmndy. That is ihe only comfort for u newspaper man amid tho summer solstice. We therefore, add, “don’t lie an editor” during the summer senson iu a town where “restriction” is the law, as will he tho case in Rome after tho 24th. When the trap is sprung we dun’t know what’ wo shall do cxeopt to seek some “vast contiguity of shade” where tho “devil” is never heard crying, “more copy I” Between tho devil and hot weather, we don’t know how we shall manage to perspire freely without the aid ( iVlI. It It; UTS IN WASHINGTON. Up to the 2nd Inst., it has been the negro vs. the white man. It has been the negro to assert his rights under tho civil rights bill; hut it is left for tho Federal capital to present the rice rerun. suit was entered in Washington City, on Friday last, by a white man against Henry Smith, who keeps a lodging- house, for ejecting him from his house, saying that he would accommodate no white person. Wo admiro the pluck of the negro. Ho did tho white man just exactly rigilt; and if wo were in llenry Smith’s place, a test case would he made. We nro emphatically in sym pathy with Smith, even if lie is a black Smith. If Smith isn’t able to test his riglit to conduct his hotel us lie pleases, he ought be sustained by every white of beer.

We can’t he a good templar and an editor at tiie same time— not during the heated term. Why don’t good templars like beer on ice? Arothoy not human novhu- inane to those who have a human fond ness for a good thing? Reader, don’t ho an editor—not in Rome after the 21th —tho boor will nil be gono except by the gallon ; we say, don’t do so unless you can fill up for “ many days hence” like a good nn- tured camel that doesn’t care for water brooks except occasionally as a sort of novelty.

A pro position is now on foot to establish an armory for the United States Govern ment at Rome, and if this is done the efforts to open the Coosa will be re doubled. The rich country which will bo in direct communication with Mont gomery by means of tho Coosa River, is worth struggling for.—Montgomery Adecrtiser. The Coosa river will be opened and that speedily. There is nit a shadow of dquht that Congress will add tho Alabama and Coosa as one river to the annual appropriation bill and have the obstructions removed under the super vision of Federal engineers. Why not? Congress has removed obstruc tions from every other important navi gable river in tho country. Wo feel confident that our representatives im mediately interested in tho country drained by these rivers, Messrs. Brom berg, Williams, Caldwell, and Forney will leave nothing uncone to secure an ample nngunl appropriation which, with such assistance as tho State should givointho way of convict labor,will in a few years enable a steamboat to run from Rome, Georgia, to Mobile.—Mo bile Register. Every oho knows tho course of the Coosa ttivor, ruiyiig as it does nearly centrally through the State. What a great advantage it will be not only to the cities and towns immediatly upon the river, but to the Shite at large. It has been almost un'vcrsally acknowl edged that Alabama lias more natural resources than almost nay State in the Union, and all aro willing to acknowl- riglit in kicking that white fellow out fur presuming to thrust himself where he was not wanted. If we wore a negro hotel keeper, wo would nlloiv uo white man to pollute our bods with his carcass. Smith thor oughly understands his rights and tho best interests of his business ; and he was'riglit in ejecting the “white trash” from his house. Hurrah for Smith! May ho live to see his rights vindicated. His vindication will lie that of both raees in all matters of the sort coming ledge that the opening of this river At the time of writing this article yesterday Atlanta was the scene of a gala day that will doubtless be long re membered by those who participated upon the occasion. It will mark an epocli in Georgia, we trust, from which will be dated a demonstration, in the South in favor of peace and reconcilia tion that will he maintained and kept in tact fur centuries. It will show to the world.that Georgia still cherishes the noble deeds of the brave fathers of tho Republic who shed their blood for tho cause of civil liberty. We take it that the glorious Fourth of July lias been reconsecrated in the hearts of the people of Georgia, never again to bo ignored in the calendar of a people born to freedom with the love of freedom still burning brightly upon thb altar of their affections. We trust that the demonstration in Atlanta yes terday was but another pledge of the people of this Stato in behalf of the Union of our fathers upon the basis of constitutional freedom and public lib erty, and that wo shall yet see in trutli and in fact that this is “ the land of tho freo and the home of tho bravo.” Tho time for sulking silence has past—especially in Georgia wdierc tho true men of this grand old Stato have overthrown oppression and re-estab lished the law of order and justice, and planted upon tho ramparts of liberty tho banners of justico and fraternity. May he who spoko in Atlanta yesterday, tho apostle oi liberty as wo may call him, live long to enjoy tho blessings of a restored republican and demacratic government. Alexander II. Stephens was a fit representative of the past generation to deliver to the pre3ont gen oration—from sire to son—tho great message of liberty, and to echo in words tho glad tidings that pealed fortli Irom Independence Hall July 4th, 1770—a free and independent people ! There is a Methodist preacher at Dan ville, Ky., who owns a horse as fond of chickens ns his master is. Old Mother Penn, late of Madison county, Ga., the mother-in-law of the late Dabney P. Jones, the apostle of temperance, was a good liver, and her house was the home of tho preachers when they wero about The last chicken had been killed except the old rooster. When the next preacher rode up to the gate, the old rooster broke oil' to the woods chuckling ns lie went, “Good God ! Good God ! my time next.” Why shouldn’t a liorso understand the example of a preacher as well as a roos ter should comprehend the fate of n chicken in connection with the visits of tho clergy ? Wo have the first number of the Gainesville Ifcrald, a weekly, by Latham & Findley. We will wait and see what Charley Willingham has to say about it. Wo wili keep it on file.—Atlanta Herald. Wo have nothing to say of the Gaines ville Hcra’d, not having received a copy. tinder thb civil rights bill. For the next t.vo weeks wo shall greatly miss our weekly exchanges. Nearly every one of them have put us on notice that the “glorious fourth” is to be (strictly observed for at least one whole week. How wo shall get along without our weekly budget is to bedoter- terniinnd in nccordn' co with tho in tensity of this summer solstice. We shall publish, in our next issue, n letter written by the late Gen. LeHardy, the distinguished civil engineer, in regard to tho opening of our rivers to naviga tion. Tho subject, as discussed in that letter, is the most comprehensively han dled without being elaborated, we have yet seen. Wo hope our readers will all give it a careful perusal. We aro raising n trio of lightning ducks for Henry Grady, our sweet and lovely niece of the Atlanta Herald. By the time Atlanta begins to squirt around with her water works, and our buxom niece gets tier fountain in order, these ducks will lie large enough to comprise in teresting adiucts to her aquatic sports. The natal Bay of American indepen- pendcnce lias been more generally ob served this year in the South than since 18(10. We trust that the next seven years, during our centennial era, will eloso the breach between the sections and give us a Union “ ono and inde structible.” Gapt. T. H. Willingham, of Dougher ty county, is a “mighty rushing” man. Tho Albany News says that lie lias 2,000 acres in corn, 2,000 in cotton, and 1,100 in oats. His oats arc harvested, and lie will probably have 8;000 bushels for •sale, There are but few colored people who have assumed or appropriated the name of Smith. They seem to have an aversion to that name, and for no reason, peril aps, than that they do not wisli to lie known ns black Smiths, would facilitate tho cultivation of these resources in the greatest manner possi ble. Not only to tho State of Alabama will benefit accruo from the opening of this river, but to tho whole United States. Then let us to work and place it before Congress in that light, and success will surely crown our ef forts. Wo favor 'ho holding of a Convention, to bo composed of dele gates from tho cities and towns imme diately interested and lying on the River. What say you, gentlemen of Mobile, Selma, Montgomery,Talladega, Greensport, Gadsden, and Rome? Lot us hole! the Convention, memorialize Congress, in tho proper manner, and, in our opinion, tho work will be done speedily.— Wclv.mpha Constitution. The National Grange. Tiie Direct Cable.—New York, July 3.—Officers of tho direct cable com pany say that for nbout ten days after connection was established the company sent dispatches about their own busi ness through tiie cable as well as pri vate dispatches for their friends. It was found, however, that tiie fault ex isted which although not serious, was ono of moment enough to induce tiie company to require the makers of the cable to repair it before it was accept ed. Tho fault was located and the vessel was sent out to repair it Thursday. A dispatch was received through the cable from tho vessel saying that it was expected that tho work would bo completed by yesterday, but no further intelligence from the vessel has been received. Washington, July 3.—Tho executive committee of tiie grangers national grange continued their session to-day in this city. Dr. Worrall representing the co-operative societies of England, was introduced to tho committee and submitted for their consideration a proposition for fraternal co-operation jetween thb patrons of husbandry and the co-operation England. Dr. Worrall lias four associates en route, who are daily expected, to aid him in effecting his object. A sub-committee consist ing of Mr. D. T. Choice, of New Hamp shire, and J. E. Jones, of Arkansas, was appointed to take the whole subject un der consideration and report at the next meeting of the committee Monday next. Tho committee aho had under consideration tho removal of the headquarters of tho national grange, but reached no conclusion. Four cities, Nashville, Louisville, Indianapolis and Cincinnati, offer special inducements. Cincinnati is especially anxious to se cure headquarters and proposed to send a delegation of prominent citizens to Washington to confer with the cxecu- tivoj committee, but the latter notified them that they must submit the pro position in writing, and that no delega tion will be received, A proposition looking to tho improvement of the busi ness interest of tiie order was referred to a sub-committee. The sum of 8500 was donated to-day to the patrons in Colorado, suffering from the ravages of the grasshoppers. Since tho passage of the new bank act in January last, sixty-five new na tional banks have been organized, with a capital of 80,914,000. Only one of them is located in the cotton states, and that is a small Tennessee bank, with a capital of 850,000. On tiie other hand most of the southern states show ft de crease in national bank circulation Georgia has lost 8370,000; Kentucky, 884,000; Louisiana, 845,000; Maryland, 8150,330; Missouri, 8360,000; South Carolina, $180,000; Tennessee, 8225,000 Texas, 845,000; Virginia,8208,8000 ;and West Virginia 8303,930. Tho not in crease amounts to $4,576,420, of which 83,320,470 is in Massassachusetts. The national bank system is a powerful le ver in tho hands of oustern capitalists to control the whole country. Lo! tho Poor Indian! St. Louis, July 4.—Col Buudinot, who hasjust returned from tho Indian Territory, says twenty-seven murder cases have just been disposed of by the United States District, Court at ’ Fort Smith, Ark., before which tribunal all the criminal cases from the Indian Na tions are brought. Out of this number eight persons were convicted of mur der in tho first degree, seven convicted, including two boys, or.e seventeen and the other nineteen years' of age, to he hanged together on the 3d of September next; the eighth, a negro, was kilh-'i al ter bis convicticn, while attempting to escape Irom the guard. Much outlawry prevails in the In dian Territory, and ton men have been killed in the vicinity of FortSmith with in a few months. A very hitter contest is now going on in the Cherokee Na tion between tho Ross and Downing parties for tiie position of chiefs, and rumors of conspiracy and assassinations are rife. Col. VV. P. Itisi, til > present chief, a candidate for re-election, and a man named Thompson is the candi date for the Downing party. An extract from the Jlosdinan Manta- no Times, says tho PefSes and Bannock Indians have combined against the Sioux, and that the Sioux were being overpowered. Tho steamer Bozeman of tho Pease expedition, was sunk near Hunter’s springs about two weeks ago, and all arms and supplies, and Pease’s papers were lost, but no human lives were sacrificd. The Black Hills Eldorado.—Dis patches from tho Black Hills Geologi cal Expedition indicate that near Har ney’s l’enk gold has really been found in payingquantities. Tiie correspondent of the New York Tribune accompany ing the expedition writes that, after the party entered the unexplored region front the east, they struck a granito for mation and gold-bearing quartz, be sides finding gold in flakes in the gulch es. Prof. Jenny, Lieut. Morton and Dr. Lane, of the Government expedition, are said to be satisfied that gold exists there. Whether it will lie found in suf ficient quantities to till tho pockets of tiie thousands who are waiting to crowd into tho Hills, makes no difference. The people will go, in spite of restric tions, and possess tiie land on the mere intimation that gold is there. If Gen. Custar had never rambled in that vi cinity, tho Indians to-day miffltbe rest ing in secure possession of this refresh ing and ricli oasis.—Courier-Journal. Tiie preparations for the state fair are rapidly progressing. Arrangements have been made for excursion rates from all the principal cities of the coun try, and an influx of articles and visi tors from abroad is expected. Senator Bayard, of Delaware, and Thurman, of Ohio, will certainly be present. Mr. Johnston, secretary of the society, is now visiting the northern cities to in duce manufacturers and stock growers to send their products and animals to the fair. To use the words of the Tele- a h, every Georgian should strive to o it a grand success, and the true exponent of the varied productions of our favored commonwealth. German Catholics.—The recent abrogation of three articles of tho con stitution of tho German Empire which brings the Roman Catholic Church in Germany in complete subjection to tiie Government, and tho severity of the Fulok laws passed in 1S73 arc showing results in the flight of German ecclesi astics to the United States. Tho tele graph announces tho arrival in New nlma York of a large number of priests and nuns, who propose to settle in Illinois, where Bismarck and Pr.

J edfersonian Democracy.—Tho very sight of tho words “Jeffersonian De mocracy” causes Mr. Alfriend to have the horrors. Now Grceleyism sunk the Democratic party into the deepest of pits, and that old Jeffersonian Demo crat, Wm.

I have faithfully tried most ol the popular romolies recommended for my complaint; I have been under tho t eatmeiitof some of tie moit skillful physicians in Boston, all of whom pro- nounced uiy ease incurable. This was my con dition when ( was advised by a friend to try the VEGETINE, and I oould see tho good effects from the first doso I took, and ftom thit moment I kept on improving until I was entirely cured, taking in all, I should think, about six bottles. It is indeed a valuable modieine, and if I should be afflicted again in the same way, 1 would give a dollar for a dose, if I could not get it without. Respectfully, J.

Stevens— Dear Sir: la expressing my thank.i to you fir benefits derived from the use of VEGETINE, aud to benefit others I will state: When oight or nine } ears old I was afflicted with Scrofula, which made Its appearance in my eyes, face and head, and I was very near blind • or two years. All kiuds of operations were performod on my eyos, and all to to no giod result. Finally the disease principally settled iu my bady, limbs and feet, and at times in an aggravated way. Last'summer I was, from some cause, weak in uiy spine aud kidneys, and it^ras at times very hard to retain the urine. Seeing your advertise ment in thi Commercial, 1 bought a bottle of VEGETINE, and commenced using according to • directions la two or three, days I obtained great relief. After using four or five bottles I noticed it had a wonderful effect on the rough, scaly blotches on my body and legs. I still u$od VEGETINE, and the humorous sores one after another disappeared until they were all gt»no, and I attribute the cure of tho two dhsoa&e9 to VEGETINE, and nothing else. II I am over affected with anything ol the kind again, I shall try VEGETINE as the only reliable remedy. Once more accept my thanks, and believe me to.be, Very respectfully, AUSTIN PARROTT, Dec 1, 1872. No 35 Gano st., Cincinnati.
