!b( fgcgnffie fonrnal. ■ «Sgß}»^ Wednesday November 20, 1872. Tli« Atlanta Pr«n». Springing, pberux-hks. from the ash** of W desolation, Atlanta, hi nee her destruction by Sher man, haw made giant utricles in erery branch of manufactures, commerce and trade, reflecting great honor and credit npon her thorongh-going, energetic citizens and busmen* men : but in par ticular she is to be congratulated in the possession of a city Prow, haring, in point of ability, no su periors in the Sonth and rery few in the North, The Son, the Constitntion and the Herald, in aoirad, sensible Editorials, spiey Locals and General News, will oompare favorel.lv with any Jon mala in the Unite-1 States, snd ought to be patronized by erery family in the Hontb. They are always eagerly looked for in onraanctnm, and a perasal of their contents never fails to awaken a feeling of pride. Mr. J. H. Smith has sold his in terest in the San, and his position as Business Msnager and Associate Editor is filled by Mr. Samuel A. Echols, a gentleman of rery superior Journalistic talent. The Herald will soon issue a mammoth Weekly, and is rapidly building np a national circulation and reputation. Wo wish them all the snccess they can possibly desire. n. it. Tim. A correspondent of the Atlanta Constitution, signing himself “Democrat,” nrges the next Legis lator* to elect Mr. Hill to the Federal Senate. We very well know that the time has been when this suggestion, coming from any source, would have raised a storm of enthusiastic applause from every patriotic heart in our noble old State. When Mr. Bill, so eloquently and bravely, held up to the gaze of the world the oounttes* wrongs and outrages perpetrated by the Radical Party upon the helpless and unarmed Sonth, and stood forth the earnest adrooste and fearless champion for the remnant of Constitutional liberty which that Party had left us from the wreck of a once glori ous Republic, every honest man, North and South, honored his name and spoke his praise. But his late unaccountable tergiversations and political summersaults, which first surprised, then mortified and finally disgusted his friends, haro sunk him so low in public estimation, that we do not be lieve any present peuitenoe or future reotitude of oonduct will ever lift his character from the mild and filth of political sin, snd reinstate him inthocon fldence of his oountrvinen. “Demoorat" (?) think* we need in the Senate “the best constitutional lawyer we have, who should also be a toady, fluent debater,” and says, “I know of tint one such In all the number spoken of for the place, and that is the Hon. B. H. Hill." We hsve never questioned Mr. Hill’s intellectual strength, nor doubted his fluency of speech ati l power of argument; neither did we ever accuse Thad Stevens or Beast Butler of being fools, and yet sow Georgians would like to lie represented in Congress by suoh men. Besides, for “Democrat’- to argue that he knows of no suoh constitutional lawyer, or one so ready and fluent in debate as Mr. Hill, “is to argue himself unknown.” Where are Stephens and Toombs and Johnson and Jen kins and Gordon and Colquit and a sooro of other intellectual giants in onr State, who, “on great national qnestiens, could shake the nation from center to ciroumference ?’’ Indeed, wore the combined intellect and oratory of the world, doub ly intensified and centered in Mr. Hill, knowing him as we do, and saddoned and dispirited as we are, under our late disasteroua defeat, from haring bowed down to the golden culf of G reeleyisin, we are in no huinor to try the experiment so soon again in the person of Mr. Hill, “Democrat" to the contrary notwithstanding. When Bullock is again in the Gubernatorial Chair, and the negroes and Radicals hsve a ma jority in the Legislature, Mr. Hill, through his admirer, “Democrat,” may, with consistency, urge his claims for otHce at their hands, and proudly refer to his past services in their behalf, and his great ability ass constitutional lawyer, and his readiness and fluency in debate. But we do not believe that oua Legislature will betray the confidence and trust reposed In them, or stultify themselves iu the opinion of their constituents by disregarding and ignoring the qualifications aud claims of the great and good representatives of T«n« Democracy, and elevating to place aud power suoh an unreliable disciple as Ben Hill. Moronoy. * RSBIO-OOHIO STOUT. Wo lesrn from a Circular which has lieen sent to us, that s work with the shove title, written by James M. Smythe, Esq., will be published in the Illustrated Reoord and Repository, of New York City, in aid of the Confederate Monumental Asso ciation of Georgia.
