FOR GOVERNOR,
JAMES M. SMITH,
OF MUSCOGEE.
Cull for State Democrutic Convention.
Atlanta, Ga , June 26, 1872.
At a meeting of the Executive Com
mittee of the State, held this day, it was re
solved, that a Convention oF the Democratic
party be held in the city es Atlanta, on
"Wednesday, the 24th day of July next, at
12 o’clock M., in the Capitol building, in
Atlanta, for the purpose of nominating an
Electoral Ticket, and a candidate for Gov
ernor. Counties will he entitled to the
usual represetation.
Julian llartridge.
Chairman.
Democratic Meeting.— The meeting to
send deleg&ts to Atlanta on the 24th, held
nt Thomaeton, was very pleasant and har
me county has been in need of
an Executive Committee. The gentlemen
appointed to constitute this Committee are
good men and suitable to the position. They
can do much good.by being vigilant and
looking after the interest of the party and
the people. Muchdepends upon their faith
and energy. This is an important epoch
and every man should let no opportunity
slip to dephis country good.
Georgia State Election*
Considerable excitement has been lately
gotten up over the Gubernatorial election,
It was thought by many Until recently that
Smith would have little or no opposition,
but the friends of James are urging his
claims with all the earnestness imaginable.
The difficulty is, that they are few in num
ber and are for the most part composed of
men from tho cities. llis admirers in tbe
rural districts are few and fa.* between.
The principal reason his friends assign for
wishing to make him Governor is, that he
is a good financier—that he lias made a
bugo sum of money since the war. They
forget that this is one of the very reasons
why the people do not wish him Governor.
Bullock was also a good financier, and accu
mulated an immense fortune, but what
good was it to the State 1 The fact that a
man heaps together riches in great quanti
ties is no evidence that he would'make even
a good financier for ihe State. To be a
st.itenian requires disinterestedness and a
public spirit. Martin Van Buren was a
good financier, so far as the management
of his individual affairs were concerned,
vet he involved the nation in financial ruin.
During his adrainistrntiofi the country was
flooded with shin-plaster currency. Trade
and business of every discretion wasthrown
into confusion. On the other hand, James
Monroe, who was one of the best statesmen
that this country has ever produced, and in
whose administration the national finances
Were put in a healthy state, was a very
poor financier so far as his individual
affairs were concerned. Indeed Mr. Mun
roe grew poorer as he grew older. The
truth is, his mind was so much absorbed
fur the public good that he neglected his
domestic affairs. The same was true of
Thomas Jefferson.
We regard this claim -set up by his friends
as the very poorest that could be given for
making Mr. James Governor?*
State Election in North Carolina.
The campaign in North Carolina is likely
t 9 be one of the hottest contests that has
tiver occurred on this Continent, fu another
column it will be seen that the Radicals
have drawn a large sure* of money from the
public treasury in order to carry North
Carolina for their party. The Democrats
and Liberals are equally in earnest, and
every preparation is being made to canvass
the State thoroughly. Ex-Governor Vance
has been making many telling speeches in
behalf of the Democracy an ] the Liberals.
He is undoubtedly the best stump orator
in the South. Vance is quite young—not
over 37 years of age—and is a man of the
highest order of talent. It will be recol
lected that he was elected to Congress some
time since aod was refused admission on
account of, what the Radicals called, dis—
loyalty. Fltf will deal them heavy blows
in this campaign. Much depends on the
result of the State election in North Caro
lina, both parties are anxious to carry
the first State election of the campaign, as
it will inspire the successful party with
hope and create much enthusiasm in behalf
of the victorious party.
Unanimously aml Unceasingly for Gov

Editors Siin: At a meeting cf the Dem
ocracy to send delegates to the State Con
vention, held in Athens’to-day, the follow
ing res dution, offered by A. L. Mitchell,
Esq , was unanimously adopted :
“ Resolved , By the Democratic Party of
Clark county in Convention assembled,
That the delegation from this county to the
Gubernatorial Convention to be held in At
lanta on the 24th instant, be instructed to
vote unanimously and unceasingly for the
nomination of the Hon. James M. Smith,
for Governor.”
This county will give an almost unani
mous vote for Governor Smith.
Cor. Atlanta Sun. Senix.
“The above resolution expresses the senti
ments of the citizens, of most of the coun
ties of this State. At the recent meeting
held at Atlanta, the home of Mr. James,
the Smith ticket was elected, so that Fulton
county sends a Smith Delegation to the
Gubernatorial Convention.
“To this end the customs tend.
What the court# begin the vuigur end.”
Whenever crime and corruption are
practiced by men in high places, it soon
spreuds into every nook and corner of
society.
We received by yesteiday’s mail a speech
of lion. Robert B. Roosevelt, of New York,
delivered in the House of Representatives
May 17th, 1872 It will be remembered
that, by an act of Congress passed Feb.
21, 1871, the relation of the District of
Columbia towards the National Govern
ment was changed. This national property
was converted into u territory and given a
territorial government, instead ot being
under the charge of Congress as heretofore.
The law making this change is called the
Organic Act. It provides fm a Legislature
to be composed of two branches, a Council
to consist of eleven members appointed by
the President, with the adviee of the Sen
anfe. and a House of twenty-two Delegates
chosen by the people.
This new Government inaugurated as
stated above, went to work to improve the
condition of the City of Washington, and
before the end of one year it has created a
debt of $13,200 381. The whole taxable
property of the Territory amounted to only
SB9, 225,615, of this amount over $9,500.-
000 was incurred in seven months. At
this rate, in ten years, the entire capital
of the Territory would be consumed.
In order to raise this money Bonds were
placed on the Eureptan market for sale,
and was advertised on the continent in a
paper called the “Galignanie,” in which
advertisement it was made to appear that
the United States was responsible for this
money, and that it was to adorn the Nation
al Capitol. When the interest on these
bonds is not met, as it will surely not be,
fur the simple reason of poverty, all our
national funds will be discredited. For
eigners deceived as to one class will doubt
all. This the United States cannot afford,
as her credit is at stake. So she will, as a
share matter (if po-hey, have to respond to
what are little else than forgeries. And
this is the way the people’s money goes.
This corruption, begining at the Capital of
the nation* and commencing, with the men
highest in authority has spread itself
throughout this vi’hole nation, from Maine
to Florida, from ocean to ocean. The Gov
ernment being rotten the core, sends
forth its corrupting iJlnence until the
whole body politic has become OQe mass of
corruption. Is it a wonder then that we
see a spontaneous uprising of the masses
all over the country, and uniting without
regard to former political parties to over
throw this grand corrupt and Centralized
Despotism over which Grant presided.
The people want reform, and they are
going to have it, and if the old political
leaders do not fall into the ranks they will
be run over, and the sooner they sec this
the better it will be for them.
When the speeches of such men as Voor
hees and Toombs fall still-born on the ears
of the multitude, it is time for them to
desist in a course that is eo much against
the wishes of the people. When the great
modern Pericles summoned his people on
the Wabash, whose minds he had
often swayed, and delivered a speech in
opposition to the Cincinnati ticket. The
multitude listened through respect to their
former leader, but his speech fell still-born
as did Robert Toombs’ before the Atlanta
Convention.

Death of Hon. Linton Stephens. —This
distinguished orator and statesman di£d at
Sparta, on Monday, the 15th inst., of con
gestion of the lungs and liver. Judge
Stephens was one ufGeorgia’s most eminent
jurist, and was noted for hi3 integrity and
patriotism. It is truly unfortunate, for his
native State to loose his services at this
critical period. This blow will fall very
severely upon his distinguished brother,
Hon. A. H. Stephens. It appears that
there existed the strongest kind of attach

for many years, not a day passed without
their corresponding with each other. Judge
Stephens was in his 49th or 50th year of
age. His illness was short—only a few
days duration.

Ilomot Female College Commencement.
ForsTth, Ga., Ju’y 17th, 1872.
Arriving at the pleasant little city of
Forsyth yesterday during the progress -of
the Commencement exercises of Monroe
Female College, we thought it but just to
our readers'to give them a short letter.
The exercises of Monday and Tuesday
constituted the examination of the different
classes in the different' trances, ft was
not our pleasure to arrive in time to witness
the examination of the young ladies, but on
inquiry of those who did share such pleas
ure. we learn that the examinations were
very thorough and the youDg ladlea acquit
ted themselves most handsomely.
There is one feature of teaching and de
veloping the faculties of the mind adopted
by the Professors of this institution that
we would especially commendtoall teachers.
It is termed individual and concert training.
For example; when a student parses a word
in grammar, let the class comment and
criticise the parsing and positions of such
student. One of the chief benefits resulting
from such a course is, the directing of the
attention of the class and teaching each
pupil to detect the errors and faults in
others, thereby rendering themselves less
apt to fall into the same errors. There can
be no doubt as to the benefits resulting
from such a course of training. The old
system of questioning must be abandoned
to a certain exteut. There are other favor
able features in the course of training,
which we should have noticed, had we
been present at the examinations and seen
their result. Leaving tLe examinations,
Tuesday evening was appropriated by
I’rof. ,to ihe demonstration oT the
extent and perfection of the musical train
ing of the music class, in the way Tis a
concert.
At 8J o’clock the hall was crowded with
the beauty, fashion and elite of Forsyth,
and for a time the hearts and souls of all
were filled with choice duets, solos, sweet
songs and charming operatic music. The
hall was filled and the occasion was one
of much pleasure aDd entertainment. The
concert over,-the young ladies and gentle
men whiled away some pleasant moments
in social confab.
Commencement day, Wednesday, bright,
beautiful and suDshiue, was one of interest
and pleasure. The hall Was filled ’till all
could scarcely get in when the exercises
were opened. It would task the powers of
Blair, or Lord Karnes to give an accurate
criticism on the compositions and reading
of the Juniors. Their compositions would
have reflected much credit on Seniors.—
There being no Seniors, the Junior class
occupied commencement day.
We were particularly struck with the or
iginality of style and thought of Mis 4 fluteh
ings, the subject of whose composition was
the old adage, “Woman wu3 at tto' 1 ottoui
of it.”
At the conclusion ot the exercises. Dev.
Dr. Ilillyer, in accordance with the instruc
tions of the Committee, awarded the prize
to Miss Emma Hightower, as the best read
er in the Sophomore Class.
K-jv. W. J. Morcock was then introduced
to the audience and delivered an eloquent
address on the subject of education. We
did not remain over Wednesday night, but
learned that there would be a Calisthenic
exhibition.
We commend to every locality the spirit
of education, which Forsyth breathes. She
has purchased the College building from
its former owners and in the past few
months has spent near ten thousand dollars
in repairing the building and the surround
ing grounds. The yard and grounds in
front oi the College building have been
tastefully laid off in walks and shade trees
©et imt. Bat a few years faill be necessary
to fender it perfectly beautiful. The re
pairing Is still in progress, and much labor
yet to be bestowed. Situated in a flue and
healthy climate, with good society, clever,
hospitable people and an able faculty, we
know of no place more inviting to parents
who have daughters to educate.
Dottiest Growing Warm i-n North
Carotin.
The .Secretary of the Treasury has been
sent by Gen. Grant into that State to bake
part in the campaign. Two more Cabinet
officers are on their way, and the Grant
candidate for Tice-President (Wilson,) is
also on the way. Nearly a quarter of a
million of money has been drawn ostensi
bly to defray the expenses of the Federal
Courts, where not over $5,000 have hereto
fore been used. A great number o"£ mar
shals have been appointed in every county
where there is little or nothing for them to
do. The white population of North Caro
lina exceeds that of the blacks by. 40,000.
The negroes generally arc for Grant. The
old North State holds a proud position
in the history of America. She took the
lead in severing her connection from the
mother country. At Mecklenburg her con
vention met one year before the Declaration
of Independence was signed at Philadelphia.
Thomas Jefferson has been accused of get
ting fr-hf plan of the Declaration of Inde
pendence from the resolutions of the
Mecklenburg Convention.
Let the people of Norh Carolina imitate
their noble ancestors, by casting off the
yoke of the Grant Despotism. Let them
show to the world that Grant s money can
vnot buy them or his minions control them
in a case where their liberty and honor is
at stake. We expect the old North State
to give a good account of herself in August.
But if the Democrats and Liberals expect
to win, they must put fortli a great effort.
In many sections ot North Carolina, the
mails are received but seldom, and the peo
ple in those scctionsread but littleof what is
going on. This gives a fine opening for stump
speaking and for controliDg votes by such
means. The enthusiasm of this campaign
will far exceed that of 1840, when Gen.
Harrison was elected. Citizen.
the following from the Savan
nah Advertiser :
Another Warning. —A letter from Dr.
Jas. A. C. Wynn, of Sandy Ridge: lienry
county, of the 12th, gives another instance
of loss of life by using kerosene improperly.
On the 10th inst. Mrs. Dr. Gideon, an es
teemed lady of lienry county, having pre
pared the wood and filled a stove, applied
the dangerous fluid to the wood to make it
burn more freely, wnen tfie oil caught and
exploded the can in her hand, setting her
clothes on fire. Dr. Gideon was near by, but
was unable to extinguish the flames until
too late. Mrs. G. survived the accident,
in great agony, about seventeen hours. Iq
har death society has lost one of its best
and noblest members.

Bad Showing.— The New York Com
mercial Advertiser reports with evidcD-t
satisfaction that in a vote recently taken by
the negroes at the White Sulphur Springs
in Virginia 294 were taken for Grant and
only 48 for Greeley. If sambo divides at
that rate, Grants case is a bad one.

Uung Propose to Carry North Carolina.
Under date of July Bth, the lion. James
B. Beck, of Kentucky, writes a letter to
Hon. T. L. Clingham, detailing the methods
the Grantites have in view fur carrying the
latter State, and warning the people t<» re
newed vigilance and energy. This extract
from the letter will show how desperate are
the fortunes of the Grant faction, and to
what wholesale and unblushing villainy
they are resorting to bolster up the f riunes
of their chief. Mr. Beck says:
As North Carolina will he the first State
after the Baltimore Convention in which
an election w ill be held, the Administration
wi 11 use every means possible to carry it.
Gangs of spies and informers will flood y..ur
State ; negroes will be imported from other
States ; false registrations will be resorted
to. In short, ail the machinery which a
corrupt and unscrupulous Administration
can device, will be put in motion to carry
the State. Secretaries B.iutWell and Delano
will leave their Departments, to udd to the
pleasure hy their speeches and ether influ
ences. Already large sums of money have
been raised for corrupt purposes. I knew
the (so called) Department of Justice would
contribute largely to the means of corrup
tion. Therefore I went to the Treasury
this morning to see what was being dime,
and found that one 3. T. Carrow, marshal
ot y' ur State, had drawn within the last
year $223,000. of which $65,000 had been
drawn within the last sixty days, $40,000
*d it within the last few weeks. Os course
this will be used corruptly. The enormous
draft on theTreusury for pretended judicial
expenses—a quarter of a million of dollars
in twelve rfi'bnths —is made still more fla
grant frjin the fact that, until wrthiu a few
years past, no former United Suites marshal
ever drew more than $5,000 to cover the
expenses incident to his office for a whole
year.

Legislature, at its last session passed two
laws which everybody should know. One
is, that when a planter gives a merchant,
or cotton factor a lien on any property for
supplies to make his crop, if said property
or crop is sold and net applied to the pay
ment of said debt, the guilty party is liable
to imprisonment for one year. The other
iaw is to the effect that ten per cent interest
is collectable by law when inserted in a
note. It has also been decided by the Su

as written ores when the f»cts can be

They obtained between $13,000 and $14,-

Dastardly Murder. — Memphis, July 13.
—Last evening while a party of boys were
bathing in the river at the foot of Beal
street, a private watchman named Stur
geon, employed on some flat-boats nearby,
came out od the roof, armed with a musket,
followed by his wife, also armed with a
navy revolver, and after threatening the
boys for bathing, Sturgeon took deliberate
aim at one of the boys, named Johnny
Murphy, who was in the water, and fired,
three slugs striking him in the bead, kill
ing him instantly. Immediately after the
shooting Sturgeon jumped into a skin and
made his escape. Ilia wife was arrested
and lodged in the station- house. They re
cently came here frorp St. Louis, and are
