Bouts Democracy.—When we hear men professing to be Democrats, abasing Dan Vorbees and A. H. Stephens, and ex tolling Ben - Hill and Horace Greeley, we believe their Democracy is bogus, only worn as a cloak to enable them to get of fice. True Democrats may be induced to swallow Horace Greeley as a nauseous medicine to keep off Grant, but those men roll him as a sweet morpel under their tongues and swallow him as choice food. •‘If out of the abundance of the heait the mouth speaks” their whole heart is for Horace Greeley. Ot'R POSITION And Iht Henson* why ihr Southern Propie should support Cre.hr if hr is Nominated by Ihr Baltimore Convention. We repeat, what we were the first to say and have said all along, that ti e great danger threatening ps comes from the Greeley Aggravators on the one. hand and extreme Democrats on the other. Now the plain duty oi every man who is true to his country is to abide bv the decision of the Baltimore Convention. While we fa vor a straight out Democratic ticket and feel convinced that it is our onl\ chance of success, we will never go with the bolters for we are not going to bolt the decision of the Baltimore Convention but will support heartily, yea willingly whomsoever it giveth us. The nomination of Horace Greeley by the Cincinnati Convention was art abortion, and the reason why he was chosen was because it was thought that Sumner and himself would carry the negro vote—a thing that even the aggravators themselves are obliged to acknowledge a fallacy, for the negroes will go solidly with the Grantites. Betwixt the two men, Greeley and Grant there is very little difference— if we survey them outside of the par ties they now represent—and when we view them in that light there is more to be said in favor of Grant than of Greeley—but as they now stand the difference is very great. Grant is the man chosen by the Radicals to save their party, and they w'ere com pelled to take him, thus he is himself, with his fondness for military usur pations, the representative of that party of horrors and anarchy. Greeley as the representative man of the Liberal Republicans is a mis take of the Cincinnati Convention ; but, I’reat as that mistake may be, it dwindles into insignificance when com pared with the great spirit of kindness for the Southern people manifested b\ all engaged in the workings of the great Cincinnati Convention. In that convention a serious sympathy foi the Southern people was made mani fest and with it a determination that corrupt governing of States and the Union shall cease. Grant is at heart a radical, and with him goes military usurpations, filth} corruptio is and a continuous train ol attendant evils. Greeley is at heart a radical, but he does not represent military usurpa tlons and corruption ; he is not the man selected to save the Liberal Re publican party; and he will be com pel led to stand squarely and fairly upon the Cincinnati platform. Now if Greeley is nominated by the Balti more Convention we shall support him, not because of the man himself, but because of the great voice of the people that will control him, and that voice speaks volumes of sympathy and friendship for the South—for oui own loved people. The Philadelphia Convention— What'it Teaches.—The original ob ject ol Party Conventions was to col lect and concentrate the sentiments ul the party, and to nominate the man for office that would be most accepta ble to the majority. This was not the object of the Philadelphia Convention; it was to nominate Gen. Grant. Th men sent to that Convention had most ly been bought and paid for be'ort- they were sent, with offices, and the promises of offices, and were compell ed to vote, for Grant by their contract That Convention took no pains to convince the wise and prudent men of the country that it was best to nomi nate Gen. Grant. Their whole effort seemed to be to please.the rowdies ol Philadelphia. For this purpose the picture of Gen. Grant on horse b ck was exhibited, and rowdy songs wen- sung. Gen. Grant indeed depends greatly on the rowdies of Philadelphia for his election. They have for sever* al years given the election of Pennsyl vania to the Radicals, by mean3 of the large # number of fraudulent votes cast in the city of Philadelphia. The man who gets the vote Gf Pennsylvania, in all probability, will be elected Piesi dent, and the vote of Pennsylvania may depend on the rowdies of Phila delphia. The nomination of Wilson for Vice President instead of Colfax, we think was a blunder. Massachu setts was sure for Giant anyhow, and by dropping Colfax we think Indiana wi 1 vote tor the Democratic candidate. I he whole character of the Grant Convention wag n)ore j ike a c j rc()s than a deliberative Convention. The performers were all 1>aid for thej( . 8er _ vices, and the clown was the hero of the audience.

When we reflect upon the history of our State for the past seven y r ears, we shudder at the trials so recently er Bell’s late Report, and the Code, and a certain resolution of the Logis lature in 1870,) an amount of exlxara- gance, to call it by its mildest name, overcome, and it behooves us by past the like never occurring in that office Clerks for similar services in his office last year, independent of the $5,700 paid A. J. Bell under the resolution of 1870! Surely these things ought to be looked into by the Legislature to assemble next month. experience to be guarded of our fu ture, for the end may not be yet. W ith some few exceptions the intel ligence of our State has been a unity and standing fairly and squarely up on Democratic principles in its at tacks upon radical corruption. The preservation of those principles, if we would be certain of our future, must be maintained at all hazards; for it is of far more importance to protect our State than it is to elect a President. If the Baltimore Convention nomi nates a straight out Democratic ticket there can be no danger to the State, but if that Convention in its wisdom deems it best to endorse or nominate Horace Greeley, there will be dan ger of a division of our people, unless our State Convention positively de nounces such conduct, and plants itself fairly and squarely upon those princi ples that have enabled us to drive oft the evils that attempted our destruc tion. We do not take the position that endorsing the Cincinnati nominees means the disintegration of the De mocratic party, and may heaven for bid that disruption; but we feel con vinced that such an attempt will be made if there is not decided action taken to prevent it. As we understand it, should the Democratic party give the Cincinnati platform and nominees its countenance and support, it does not mean by that to destroy itself, so ardently longed ami hoped for by its enemies. It simply means to give as a party its indepen dent power for the purpose of crush ing out all manner of corruption; but it will preserve itself intact and un broken. Then if our position be cor rect, it is the duty of our State Con vention to so assert, and the people will so maintain. We hope that this Convention will frown down all inde pendent candidates, and that it will declare the preservation of our State Democratic principles most essential to the preservation of our State itself. Look at the condition of poor, pros trate, ruined South Carolina; ask her people, and they will tell you that the redemption of their State is what they pray mr; they will tell you that all U LI 1X71 mnitviu m v vf omull IlIVTliCui compared to that. With the election of Horace Gree ley as the exponent of the Cincinnati platform, perhaps our ideas of danger may be a mistake, but the course ol action indicated by us can do no harm. On the other hand, we believe the chances favoring Grant’s election to 5e good, and if he is elected, and ex hibits the same recklessness that he has heretofore shown without unity we will be in danger, and it behooves us to be cautious. There are some so foolish as to be lieve that the election of Horace Gree ley will rejuvinate the old Whig par ty, and while we do not condemn that party we deprecate all such thoughf, for it tends to a division of the intelli gence of our State. Then let our Convention proclaim that we must preserve in our State those Democratic principles that have redeemed us. The Duty op the Democratic Par ty.—Is it the duty of the Democratic party to endorse or nominate Horace Greeley at Baltimore? Unquestiona bly it is not. That we will follow the Baltimore Convention is a known fact, be it Greeley or anybody else. But if we had the power to control its action Horace Greeley should never be heard of there. The Cincinnati Convention assembled and cast its net to catch the fishes. The Philadelphia Convention cume next and threw a largerone ; and in the meanwhile some devil fish in Congress became alarmed at the Cin cinnati netj and making a rush tore an ugly hole in it by an amnesty passage. Now for the Baltimore Convention we would make a great big net—the biggest net of all—out of the Cincin nati and Philadetfdiia platforms, and cast it forth, trusting its management to Gen. W. S. Hancock, of Pennsylva nia, and Hon.B. Gratz Brown, of Mis souri, and catch all except t e devil fish, for at its raising they would seek the bottom of the sea. and might go on to the resort of all devils for what we care. An Important Movement.—A cir cular signed by Carl Cschurz, J. D. Cox and a few other prominent, Libe ra! Republicans to about two hun dred hading Liberal Republicans to meet at the 5th Avenue Hotel on the 20th inst., to consult on important business. Their intention is said to be to drop Greeley and put up some man upon whom all the opposition to Gen. Grant can unite. The Treaty Muddle.—New York, June II.—The Herald’s Washington dispatch says the failure of the treaty of Washington, so far as it relates to the Alabama claims, is at last conce ded by the President. Schenck and Bancroft Davis are instructed to pay no attention to British suggestions or propositions for a compromise beyond what the supplemental article, ap proved by the Senate, authorizes. before, and it is to be hoped never will occur again in any other office in the State. The writer, after giving the date and amount of each warrant paid, and also for what purpose given, goes on fur ther to state that “ the only authority in the shape of law” that he could find for the expenditure of over ($9,- 000) nine thousand dollars for extra clerk hire, &c., last year in the Comp troller’s office, is the S73d and S78th sections of Irwin’s Revised Code, con taining certain provisions of the Wild Land Act of 1806, which made it the “duty” of the Comptroller General and his regular Clerk, to make out a complete list of the unimproved or wild lands not given in,” and authoriz ing the Governor, if called upon by the Comptroller for any “ additional assistance,” to employ “an additional,” or one “ Clerk” for a limited time. And also a certain resolution, passed by the Radical Legislature in 1870. After giving these sections of the Code and the resolution in full, “Jefferson” goes on to say “Who proposed this resolution in the Legislature is not stated in the pamphlet acts, but any one who will closely read it will come to the conclu sion that it was got up for the special bcmjit of a few wild land speculators ami at least Allen J Bell, if no on* else, about the Comptroller’s office. But I venture to say that in 18G6 when the Legislature passed the 873d and 87Sth sections of the Code, not a half dozen members, if even one, thought he was voting for more than S300 or $400 extra clerk hire to hel[ the Comptroller General and his regu !ar clerk, whose duty it w.is to make out the complete list, &c. Many, no doubt, thought they were not voting anything (the section shows it) s they supposed the Comptroller and Ins clerk could, perform the service them selves, free of any further cost to the State, hence they leit the employment of even one clerk with the Governoi. And I verily believe that no honest member of the Legislature, or any other, not in the secret as to the ob ject ol that resolution, supposed that he was voting more titan a few hun dred do'lars extra money to have all the work done, as required in said resolution. Unless, too, I am much mistaken, (and I have had some expe rience in the search for wild lauds, and ocareneo uotn ine lanfl Doors ami the Surveyor General’s and Secretary of State’s office, as also the tax books in the Comptroller’s office), think there are thousands of compe tent men in the State who would have gladly assisted the Comptroller and his clerk do all that was required in tHe Code and resolution for S500 or $000, ;.nd certainly not over SI,000 w hereas, it will be seen that they cost the State last year $9,090—Bullock “giving” (and Comptroller Bell ap proving) to Allen J. Bell, the Comp troller’s brother, $700 to buy books, &c., when $50 or $7-5, in my judgment, ought to have purchased all the neces sary books, and also $0,950 for ser vices, &c., making in all $7,650—be sides, also employing and paying Messrs. Fain, Estes, other clerks, $1,440 for services ! ! ! It will be seen, too, that the work for which Bullock and Madison Bell paid A. J. Bell jive thousand seven hundred dollars, including books, &c., was not only done in a few months after the passage of the resolu tion, but in the very time the State was paying A. J. Bell $150 per month for his services as Wild Land Clerk! By referring to the warrants, it would seem that independent of the $5,700 paid Mr. A. J. Bell, under the resolution of 1870, the Comptroller, under the S73d and S78th sections of the Code also paid his brother, Mr. A. J. Bell, in 1871, $1,950, besides pay ing Messrs, Fain and Estes, (wo more extra Clerks, $1,440—making $3,350, for additional extra Clerk hire. To show how very unfair and un just to the State was this, and that it may be further seen how near “ Jeffer son” was right in his supposition about extra Clerk hire under an Act of 1866, we will now knowledge. Col. James A. Green, former Sur veyor General, was in 1867 (at the instance of Major Burns, then Comp troller) employed by Governor Jen kins, under these very same sections oj the Code, to assist Comptroller Burns and his regular Clerk, “to make out a complete list of all the unimproved or wild lands not given in,” &c. Upon enquiry, then, of Col. Green, the only “Wild Land Clerk,” who resides near this city, in relation to this matter, the time it took him to do the required work, the amount he received for his services, &c., he replies as follows : “June 17, 1872—I was employed in the Comptroller’s office in 1S07, under the Wild Land Act, sections 873 and 878 of Irwin’s Revised Code, to assist Major Burns the Comptroller, and Mr. Adams, his regular clerk, to do certain work, required under 6aid act, or sections of the Code. We commenced on the Tax^Di gests about the first of September, 1867, working on an average of about five hours per dav, and we finished the “ list” or “ book” about the 24th day of December, 1867; and I only re ceived* ($333) three hundred and thir ty-three doilors for my services.” J.

We left Milledgeville over three i weeks ago, have just now returned, and are going to relate some of our experience: We had a race for the Central train and driving at 2.40 we caught it at Midway, having been detained by one of our blessed freedmen, and we got on board Capt. Whiting’s train feeling savagely, and then to crown it “old Knutts” came for our ticket and char ged—us one—six dollars and ninety cents for a ride to Augusta, when we could have got a much better one for five dollars by the Macon & Augusta R. R. We demurred at the charge, but instead of being charged upon and put out we forked over. Of course we are joking (except about that six-ninety) and ask friend Whi ting’s pardon for having quoted friend Bivins on him ; for there is not a bet ter or more obliging Conductor than Capt. Whiting to be found from San Francisco all rotfnd the world and back there again ; but we have “fetch ed” too far ; so to resume: we got to i the city of Gordon and enjoyed a cup of coffee at Solomon’s that is, declaring, that in the ovent of a choice betwixt Greeley and Grant, that they will take the latter We cannot see how it is possible tor Democrats to take such a position, but unfortunately such is the case. These Tergivesators of North Carolina, we believe, have been wolves in sheep’s clothing all this time; but in South Carolina it may be within the range ol some madman’s probabilities that there is a method in such madness. We believe, however, that the majority of all such diseased creatures will recover r inte enough to abide the decision of the Baltimore Convention. A South Carolinian who is anti Grant, says that such characters say that as South Carolina is bound for Grant any way, it is best for them to go for him, be cause if he is elected he will not feel as spiteful towards them as he will should they oppose him; while if the Baltimore candidate is elected, they hope their State will be redeemed. We consider all such talk mighty poor logic, but the times are “ out of joint,” and we shall see what we shall see.
