N nANCOCK FOR PRKAIDET,
As many papers are expressing their
preference and convictions, we will
give ours.
We are for the nomination of Han
cock for President by the Baltimore
Convention.
We honestly believe General Han
cock to be a stronger man than either
Grant or Greeley. New York will go
fur Hancock, wnd so will Pennsylva
nia—and just there it must be remem
bered that Pennsylvania, with all of
its wealth and greatness as a State, has
never given ia President—there is
some force in fflat, especially when we
couple with if the fact that Gen. Han-
cack is overwhelmingly popular in his
native State— Pennsylvania.
Illinois and Indiana will be secured
by the nomination of Hendricks or
Gratz Brown for Vice-President. Leav
ing out the Greeley aggravators, we
believe the Democratic party to be far
stronger at this time than it has been
since 1SG0, and then if the Baltimore
Convention dues nominate Hancock
for Presi ent, the Greeley aggravates
will all fall into the line, and join
Hancock in his great charge on ne
potism and corruption.
Now let us coolly judge of Han
cock’s strength, and consider the man
himself.
1st. Gen. Hancock, the chevaiier of
the North, and the man who is recog
nized alike by friends and political op
ponents to be sans peur et sans reproache.
2d. Hancock, is immensely popular
in the North (we speak from experi
ence) and he is the strongest man o'
the Democratic party. He is to-day
stronger than Greeley with the liberal
republicans, and he is the only man
who can draw off the soldier vote from
Grant. We i.eed a brave leader to
quiet the apprehensions of the Greeley
aggravators, and that great, good, and
able Democrat is the man.
Had Hancock received the nomina
tion the last time, instead of Seymour
and Blair, we are confident that Grant
would have been defeated, for the lead
ing Radicals chuckled over Seymour,
but manifested great uneasiness when
ever tne uame of Hancock was men
tioned.

Look and see and judge for your

the Baltimore Convention :
For Hancock.—Alabama, 9; Cali

North Carolina, 10; Oregon, 3; Penn

Virginia, lip West Virgiuia, 5.—To

Now in that list of States, Penn
sylvania is the most doubtful, but we
are certain ot her tor Hancock, for
the Rads have played thunder with
themselves there by the nomination of
Hartrauft for Governor. Again there
are other States that we have not put

the Radicals than for the democracy ;

High Tariff.—The tariff was at
the bottom of all our troubles, and
Horace Gieeley, with his high protec
tive tariff notions, will, we lear, even
in the event of a Baltimore endorse
ment be defeated. Horace Greeley’s

Alabama claims. But will the mer

We copy from the Tribune’s Lon
don letter of the 26th of April, simply
adding that at last accounts Master
Fred , the other royal scion of the
house of Ulysses I., was being feted at
the Court of the Grand Sultan of Tur
key :
M iss Grant’s visit to London is, in
its way, an event. The English have
thought it a good occasion to prove
that they desire to cultivate friendly
relations with America, and have
shown marked attention to the Presi
dent’s daughter. The wife of the En
glish Minister of Foreign Affairs caiied
upon Miss Grant soon after her arri
val, and has since acted as her guide
philosopher, and friend, throut'll the
mazes of English society. The Queen
sent a functionuary from the Lord
Chamberlain’s office to the United
States Legation, to say that she desired
to see Miss Grant, and to ask in what
manner a visit could be arranged most
agreeable to her. The Secretary of
Legation, Mr. Moren, is as accomplish
ed in the mysteries.of etiquette as in
all others belonging to the profession
of diplomacy. He intimated that
Miss Grant would decline a presenta
tion at a general levee or drawing
room, and it was thereupon arranged
that a special reception should be giv
en her by the Queen at Buckingham
Palace at 1 o’clock on Thursday. A
ceremony of this kind is exceptional,
and is understood to be intended for a
particular civility. It is discussed in
the papers with much gravity, and one
ingenious writer finds grounds for hop
ing that it will contribute somethin
toward the settlement of the Alabama
claims.
WAIT FOK THE BAI.TITIOBE
WAtiON.
Can the South afford to give up the
Northern Democracy ? The aggrava
tors who have come out for Greeley,
and who are for swallowing him at such
usty rate, have raised the question.
These aggravators are about reach
ing the point where they will come
out and declare that they will go for
Greeley no matter what the Baltimore
Convention does, and with a great dis
play of fear and trembling say “ we
fear the Southern malcontents will
put up three candidates and insure the
election of Grant.” These most ag
gravating aggravators presume with
all coolness imaginable to dub all true
Democrats “ malcontents.” If we
could only feel as we do when we see
chat word “ malcontent” so inaptly
applied, we should never need a dose
ol ipecac.
In I860 the South was the power
of this land. In 1872 we behold her
ving powerless. When is it that the
South has suddenly grown so power
ful as to be able to dictate to and cast
off the Northern Democracy ? And
does any sane man who favors the
Greeley movement for one moment
believe that Greeley can be elected
without the vote of the Northern De
mocracy ? No man who is blessed
with good sound common sense for
one moment believes that Greeley is
strong outside of the Democratic par
ty, and the power of that party is to-
fay in the North and not in the South,
as the aggravators would have one be
lieve.
We see plainly where the danger
ies: it is between the Greeley aggra
vators and the extreme Democrats.
Now friends, listen to good sound, sen
sible advice, for we occupy the posi
tion to give it: Let us all wait for the
Baltimore wagon, and then “ we’ll all
take a ride.” The South must by all
means be represented in the Baltimore
Convention, and * very Slate that sends
a delegation should instruct its dele
gates to go with tiie majority as soon
as that majority is ascertained, so as
to make the Convention a unit. There
is great danger of a split between the
Greeley aggravators und the extreme
Democracy, and in our humble judg
ment the Baltimore Convention should
become a unit, as soon as a majority
otthe delegation shows itself, whether
tor a good old straight Democratic
ticket or Horace Greeley, or no nomi
nation—thus leaving it an “ out and
outer” between Greeley and Grant.
la we can assure them plenty of bites
We learn they intend to go beyond the
pale of civilization, where there are
no telegraph wires and no mail facili
ties, so that their families can’t hear
what they are doing. We don’t pre
tend to know what they will catch
whilst they are gone, but we feel very
sure they will catch something when
they get back.
Impudent.—The Greeley aggrava
tors have taken the steps to secure a
third candidate, and like all truants
are for .burdening the innocent with
their sin.
These arrogant aggravators assume
the position that there is no Demo
cratic party, and yet they look for
Democrats to elect Greeley. Again,
they have the impudence to say that
they fear the Democratic party will
put up a third candidate, and use the
word “ malcontents” when speaking
of the Democracy.
We make this prediction: that if
the Northern Democrats oppose Gree
ley he will stand as much chance as a
rat heaved overboard from a vessel in
mid Atlantic.
The Georgia Press Convention
Run into the Ground.—The last we
heard from the Press Convention they
were in the Mammoth Cave of Ken
tucky, several hundred feet below the
surface of the earth, where they were
diinking toasts and making speeches.
Who would have thought these gen
tlemen would ever have engaged in
such low down practices.

Wash iugton, May 13—The political sen-
nation of ihe day has been the demonstra
tion made in the House of Representa
tives to-day by Mr. Voorhees, ot Indiana,
agaiust the endorsement of the Cincinnati
nominations by the Baltimore Convention.
While Mr. Voorhees expressly disclaimed
speaking for any one hut himself, he never
theless made under cover of a personal
explanation, a severe arraignment of Mr.
Gieeley’s political recoid, especially
that of the last ten years, to show that there j
has no nobler or truer son than the

Mr. Editor: Many are speculating
upon the prospects of the different
candidates for the Presidency, but we
have a Governor to elect this fall
which is of more importance to us
than the Presidency. Is it not time
that we were looking for thg right
man for that important office ? The
present incumbeut after having given
away our land scrip for an Agricultu
ral College will not do for the farmers
and planters. We want a man whose
interest and sympathies are with us,
and I have my mind on a man that
will exactly fill the bill ; Gen. A. H.

to a Convention to be held in Atlanta
on Wednesday, 26th June, for the
purpose of appointing delegates to

Convention, which assembles on the
9th of July. It is to be hoped there
will be a general and speedy response
to the call of the committee through

Meeting of the Democratic State
Executive Committee.—Pursuant to
the call of the Chairman, Hon. Julian
Hartridge, the State Democratic Exec

fice of Col. E. F. Hoge, in this city,
yesterday morning at 10 o’clock.
There were present the Chairman,

adopted, calling a convention of the
Democrats of Georgia to meet in At

for the purpose of nommatiug delegates
to the Baltimore Convention, which
meets on the 9th of July.
A resolution was introduced urging

view of which we are led to exclaim,
“u7/y this thus ness ?”
The other half are either confident
that it is clearly our duty to make a
Democratic nomination, or that we
should never think of such a thing,
but unite on Greeley & Co., which
causes us ask, * why those thouly?”
Is it not better to follow the ne
gro’s advice? viz: “lie low, keep

n ow fff J»<d Xm Phyaieked-
Who does not remember the time when spring
purgation was considered indispensable to sum
mer health ? No matter for wry faces, the inev
itable salts and senna, rhubath, or calomel and
jalap, must be administered. These "spring med
icines,” the youngsters weie toid, were to keep
them hale ami hearty during the summer. We al
know now that this was a falacy ; that new vigor,
not depletion, is what is required at the commence
ment of tlie snmmt r solstice. As a preparation
for the enervating effects of oppressive summer
weather, a course of Hostetter's Stomach Bitters
is highly expedient- This famous vegetable pre
paration has three prominent properties: It ren
ovates, purities, und regulates all the functions of
the bod\. It is composed exclusively of pure veg
etable productions, viz : the essential principle of
Monongahela Rye, and the most efficacious tonic
and alterative roots, harks, and gums known 'O
medical botanists. Hence, it is an absolutely sate
modicine. aud no tincture of the Pharmacopoeia
can compare with it either in purity, or in the va
riety ot its objects, and its comprehensive results.
Happily for mankind, the theory that it was nec
essary to prostrate a patient in order to cure him,
is forever exploded, and the true philosophical
doctrine, that vigor is the great in’agonist of dis
ease. has taken its place. Hostetter's Bitters is an
invigoran*, and hence it is the proper medicine for
the feeble at this most trying season of the year.
Be sure that you obtain the genuine article, as
theroare innumerable vile imitations in ihe mar

to stand on.
Mr. Voorhees said there waa something
higher than success, and he protested
against the transfer of three millions ot
Democratic rotes to a camp where there
was nothing belonging to it. He alluded
to Grant’s refusal to arrest Lee and John
ston, and others, because they were parol

publican side in a round of applause over
the sentiment that Grant had been more
liberal to the South than Greeley. Mr.
Voohees delivered his speach with a greai

The entire Republican side flocked over
to the Democratic side, and evinced the
deepest interest m every word that fell.

Some ot the Democratic, members became
greatly excited iver the speech’and sought,

the latter retorted that Mr Speer had voted

Mr, Hheiwood, of Pennsylvania, told Mr.
Voorhees that the speech had been made
in the interest of Grant, and that the In

of New York said that he had heard two

said as long as certain Democrats were
working for Greeley, he had the right to
express his epinion against him. Several
of the Democratic members briefly took
the position of awaiting the action of and
abiding by the decision of the Baltimore

say that the two-thirds rule enforced by

Hobson’s Choice.—The Augusta
Constitutionalist, ignoring the possi
bility of a Democratic nomination, and
regarding the contest lor the Presiden
cy as between the nominees of the
respective wings of the Radical party,
says : “Between Greeley and Grant,
we prefer Greeley—no matter what
may be his faults of temper, or crotch
ets of thought on matters that do not
appertain to the office of Chief Magis
trate of this country.”
An honest Democrat might prefer
Old Nick to either ot them, but that
would be no reason why he should
vote for him. If the fates will have it
so that this Government is to be ad
ministered for another four years on
Radical higher law principles, it mat
ters very little to us whether the Pres
idential Chair is filled by a Grant or a
Greeley.—Sav. Neus.
The late Governor George R. Gilmer,
of Lexington, Oglethorpe, county willed
£70,000 to the Georgia University for or
ganization and endowment of an institu
tion, to be devoted especially and exclu
sively to the gratuitous education of
teachers. Owing to ihe litigation and the
fortune of war the bequest has been re
duced to £17,000. The trustees of the fund.
General Toombs, Hon. A. H. Stephens,
Governor Jenkins, Hon- W. M. Reese,
have determined to endow with it a schol
arsbip in the State University, said schol
arship to be subject to all the conditions
provided in the formal bequeathing of
of the fund by Governor Gilmer. The
chair will no doubt be ready by next ses
sion. Accepted applicants will be educa
ted upon the condition that they teach for
tba same length of time that they enjoy
ed the benefit of the endowment. So we
learn from the Atlanta Sun. The fand
will educate annually seventeen young
men, the monthly expense being £12,50
each.
