THE FEDERAL UNION. Corner oj Hancock anti Wilkxnsor. Strut*. Wednesday Morning, July 3. 1872. FOB GOVERNOR, ALFRED H. COLQUITT, OF DEKALB COUNTY. Subject to the decision of the Democratic Convention. Call for a State Democratic Conven tion. Atlanta, Ga.. June 26, 1872. At a meeting of tlie Executive Com mittee of the State, held this day, it was resolved, that a Convention of the Dem. ocratic party be held in the city of Atlan ta. on Wednesday, the 24th day of Jnlv next, at 12 M„ in the Capitol building in Atlanti, for the purpose of nominating an electoral ticket, and a candidate foi Governor. Counties will be entitled to the usual representation. Julian Hartriduk, Chairman. THE CB0RCIA CONVENTION AND ms POLItlUAU tfCTI.UOK, The Georgia Convention has met, acted and adjourned. The political leaders in the Convention were afraid to try the Greeley or the anti-Greeley strength of the meeting, but the dele gates to Baltimore are claimed as Greeley men, and although they go without instruction, the Greeley pa pers claim them, and seem to take for granted that they will vote for Gree ley. We differ lolo celo with the Telegraph & Messenger, as to the cause and nature of this Greeley move ment at the South. We believe if every white man in Georgia were polled on the subject that four out of five would have voted against Greeley. But this Greeley movement at the South has been got up by those poli ticians who have become heart-hun gry for office, and were willing to support any man whom they believe would give them office. But what ever was the cause of this movement there cau be no doubt it has assumed formidable dimensions, and it uow looks as if Greeley would be endorsed at Baltimore. As we have frequently said before, we expect to support the nominee of the Baltimore Convetion, even if it is Horace Greeley ; and be tween Greeley and Grant we greatly prefer the former. We consider Grant a dangerous man on account of his in fluence over the army, and his dispo sition to rule by military force. Horace Greeley is not a military man, and is not dangerous, and he is pledged if elected to serve only one term. We therefore, if compelled to chose be tween him and Grant, greatly prefer Greeley. — ♦ —i The Man Has Come and His Name is Ben Hill.—We frequently hear about a coming man, but we think the man has already come, and his name js Ben Ilill. Ben has long been noted for his propensity to go ahead of the music. He has for some time been looking for a chance to take the lea i in some new movement, and this Gree ley movement is one after his own heart. Ben don’t believe in working for nothing, so he went to New York just before the meeting of the Geor gia Convention, and it is said pledged, Georgia for Greeley. What Greeley promised Ben does not yet appear, but it should be something handsome, for the vote of Georgia. If Greeley is elected in all probability Ben will be promoted. From present appear ances the Georgia Convention and her delegates to Baltimore, are all parts of the programme, and intended to be used by Mr. Hill in fulfilling his con tract with Greeley. There are some of the delegates to Baltimore from Georgia, who we suspect would not like to be used as stepping stones for Ben Hill to walk over into office. But probably in less than a year they will be convinced that they have been so used. Ben, no doubt, believes he is master of the situation, but Greeley is remarkable for his eccentricities, and may change his mind, and Mr. Hill may yet be disappointed.

And we impress upon them the assurance that their magnificient buildings here are standing in an almost perfect con dition, ready to receive the represen tatives of the people, and it should be borne in mind, that Gov. Jenkins ex pended over one hundred thousand dollars since the war in improving these buildings, and we respectfully suggest that each county hold a public meeting for the purpose of making knowu the desire of the people on the Capital question. A Resolution was then introduced by Capt. T F Newell, and adopted, which read as follows : “That all voters, white or colored in this countv who wish to become mem bers of the Democratic Club, are here by invited to subscribe to the Consti tution and By-Laws of this body, now to be found in the office of Sanford & Furman.” The motion for adjournment was t h en made, and the meeting disper sed. MILLER GRIEVE, Jr., Pre’at. F. C. Furman, Sec’y. For the Federal Utiion. Milledgeville, July 2d, 1S72. Messrs. Editors: The time is near at hand when the people of Baldwin county will have to select a man to represent them in the State Legisla ture. We should act wisely, cautious ly, and for the good of the county and State. We want an able and energet ic man to represent us, and f would propose the name of John H. Fur- nian, Esq., who, in my opinion, com bines all the elements which are neces sary to our success. He is to the ma nor born, and feels deeply lor the suc cess ol Miiiedgeville and the county interests—on the Capital question, and for all questions which will ad vance the interests of the South. He is a good and true man, and from an intimate connection with him lor several years, I believe him to be a young man of as much intellect and energy as any other young man in the State. I predict for him a brilliant future for himself, and an able defend er of Southern interests and Southern rights. I hope he will be selected by the people of Baldwin as our Repre sentative at the county election. You may depend on his ability, energy and fidelity to our interests. Baldwin. For tbe Fedrra! Union. An Account of ths Execution of Holsenbake and Lioid for the Mur der of Geo. W. Fish. About eleven o’clock A. M., Sheriff Lee, assisted by Deputy Sheriff W. M. Greer, brought tbe prisoners from the jail, under a guard of' fifty men ; they then proceeded to the place of execu tion, which was about five hundred yards from the jail.

This interesting and exciting exhibi tion (the first ever seen in this region) was viewed by a iarge assembly of the ladies and gentlemen of Milledgeville, on last Tuesday evening. The whole scene presented was highly beautiful and picturesque. The Oconee, wend ing its way through the green islands, and dashing in foamy cataracts over the rocks, and gliding smoothly on irs way, laving the green willows, which like a long curtain fringe the eastern shore, which the clear waters reflected like a rain. On tiie western bank of the river were assembled the specta tors—the brilliant and beautiful dress es of tlie ladies being in strict contrast with the bright greeu plain which stretched from the water’s edge to the distant hills westward. The sun, near ly setting, cast his cool shadow over the plain and river, while over all spread a clear blue sky, on which slowly moved majestic white clouds like ships at sea. The low evening winds waft ed tlie distant roar of the cataract and the murmur and clatter of the mill. Across the river was hitched a long cavle, to which was moored the fol lowing vessels: Foulandeout, coin’d by A. G. Napier, Sarahjaiue, Billarp, Drvcloze, Letter! ipp, Whiskystrate, Onthefly, Dr y goodes, Stickiuthemud, Ginandsugar, VVetcloze, O. T. Kenan J. R. Daniel. F. A. Hall. John Lewis. A. McKinley Chas. Case. H rnandez. HaygOod. % H. Wilson. E. Tuttle. Sirce the rains, the largest corn crop is perdicted for Floyd known in ten years. The cotton crop, though very backward, is also looking up. At half past six the signal was given to cut loose from the moorings. The whole being under the command oi Commodore Hunter, who took post on the extreme left of the line, and in the center of the river—his broad pennant being a large boquet, elevated on a broom handle. Instantly at the command every vessel was under way, amidst the wild cheering of the multitude on the banks, and waving of hats and handkerchiefs. Some vessels foundeted ai d never have been found, and with them were lost their gallant commanders. For a long time the contest was betweeu the cur vets Whiskeystraight and Letterripp, but on the close of tlie contest it was found tiiat the cutter Onthefly, com marnied by C. Case, by superior sea manship won the race. The command of the Foulandout received the negative atrard oj jamc for being the first of the Flotilla to tall “ out” in the river and capsize his boat. At the conclusion of the regetta, the following prizes were awarded: To Commander Case, ol the Onthefly, a splendid breastpin of block tin, five inches long, and warranted not to rust for five years ; its shape was that of a juvenile perch fish. To the command er of the Foulandout. Capt. Napier, was awarded a bottle of pure corn whiskey, warranted to kill at 40 yards, suspended by a cotton rope, which whiskey the Captain of the Fouland out divided among his wet and cold fellow soldiers. The prizes were delivered by Capt. T. W. White, at the request of the Judges. The Captain made a few re remarks in which he was very compli mentary to the fish, and funny as to the whiskey. Hoping that the boys will have another race soon, and let everybody know when it comes off’, I Remain very truly your9, Katphysh. P. S. At the close of the above race one was run by the ‘ Three Sweet-hearts’ and the batteau ‘Reese’ in which the latter won the prize. K. Henry A. Tilden has sued Ben But ler in the U. S. Court for SI 1,000 damages aiising from the fraudulent seizure of the steamer Nassau during Butlers reign of terror in New Or leans. Doolittle was the prosecuting attorney and he showed that Ben But ler was the most unscrupulous of vil lains, prostituting in numerous in stances the military authority placed in his hands to rob the citizens to en rich himself and his bankrupt brother, A. J. Butler, who pounced down on New Orleans as soon as he heard his worthy brother Ben had been placed in command, 80,000 acres of land are to be sold for taxes in Jackson county, Florida. Many other counties in the State are not far behind these figures, and we dare assert that since the Radical Car pet-baggers got possession of the State more than the present market value of all the lands in Florida has been col lected of the holders. Matamoras, June 29.—The occu pation of Saltillo by Trevioo, tbe rev olutionary leader, is confirmed. from the wounds received last march in trying to escape, was assisted to as cend the scaffold by Mr. B. A. Hud son. Mr. Lioid then walked up the steps to the platform with a step of firmness which betrayed no want ol courage. They both then set down upon the floor of the platform until the rope was fixed around the neck ol Mr. Lioid, Mr. Holsenbake remain ing perfectly quiet, watching the op eratiou. The Sheriff, air. H. A. Lee then announced to the public that the prisoners were allowed thirty minutes each to address them. Mr. Holsen bake then, assisted by Mr. Hudson and Mr. Gammage, stood and addressed the people. He said he was the man who killed Col. Fish ; but that as he was wraught upon by other parties, his mind influenced with a jealous feel ing against Cm. Fish, from the fact that these parlies had made him fully believe that he had the right to be jealous—that he at last was influenced to do the deed. He said as for the complicity of any one else he knew nothing, and would say nothing. But he would fully exonorate Fish from having any criminal intercourse with his wife He entreated young men to abstain from dram shops; to turn from and shun them as they would the viper, for a deadly poison they would prove to them if they did not quit them. He exhorted all to turn from their sins, and find salvation through Christ, which was tlie only means of salvation. He paid a high compliment to Colonel Goode and Wallace, his Atterneys,and also to Sheriff Lee, Mr. Greer, Deputy Sheriff and Jailor, and requested that prayer be offered for him. Mr. Lioid then made a disconnected speech, in which he protested his innocence, and expressed his opinion as to the guilt of other parties yet at large. He la bored to prove how he had nothing to do with the murder, but his remarks were so scattered and disconnected that no rational conclusion could be arrived at. Mr. Lioid was then asked if lie wish ed prayer offered for him. lie replied he did not. Then, at the request of of Mr. Holsenbake, Rev. W. J. Collins, of Perry, ascended the scaffold, and as sisted by others, sung the hymn se lected by himself, “Why should we start and fear to die,” aud then offered prayer. During the singing Mr. Hol senbake expressed a great deal ol feel ing, exhorting sinners to come to Christ and be saved. Mr. Lioid re mained unmoved to the last. Mr. Holsenbake then expressed a de sire that the family of Col. Fish would entertain no unkind feelings for him, and said he had the best of feelings towards them—that if any one hud ought against him he hoped they would forgive him—that he died with malice against no one. Tiie prisoners then both announced that they were ready, when tlie noose- cap was adjusted over their heads, and all other parties descended from the scaffold, and tlie Sheriff cut the tieddle rope, and they were launched into eternity. After they huDg about twenty min utes they were cut down and canied home and delivered to their friends. DRNOCIUTIC NTATE CONVENTION. Editorial Carrrapondmce of the frlrgrapli and Jl*i»cngrr. At 10 o’clock a. m. the Democratic State Convention was called to order by Hon. Julian Hartridge, Chairman of the Executive Committee. On motion, W. W. Clark, Esq., of Newton county, was elected temporary chair man. Upon taking his scat Mr Clark said, in substance, this Convention was the most important body which has assembled since the war. He hoped they had come together to re lieve the country from the intolerable thraldom of radical oppression. Di visions and differences Cf opinion might exist in our ranks, but all good Democrats should harmonize for the common good. We had a bold, un scrupulous enemy to encounter, des potism to put down, and the rights of the people and States to restore. Un ion and co-operation, therefore, were indispensable if we cherished any hope of success. Thanking the Convention for the honor conferred, he then an nounced the meeting ready for busi ness. Col. Styles moved that a committee of three from each Congressional Dis trict be appointed to recommend suit able men as permanent officers of the Convention. Pending any action, however, a call of the counties was ordered, and the names of delegates duly enrolled.— The resolution of Mr. Styles then came up and was adopted, and the committee on permanent organization having been designated, retired, and shortly returned announcing the name of Col. Albert Lamar, of Musco gee, as President, and the following Vice-Presidents : 1st, J. H. Hun ter ; 2d, R. N. Ely ; 3d, W. A. Lit tie ; 4th, L. T. Doyal ; 5th, M. W. Lewis ; 6th, H. P. Bell ; 7th, D. Ir win. Secretaries—J- D. Waddell, R. J. McCamey, T. W. J. Hill L. Carring ton, and C. H* Williams. The report was enthusiastically and unanimously adopted, and a commit tee consisting of Col. Thomas Harde man, Gen. A. R. Wright and W. A. Little, appointed to conduct the pres ident elect to the chair. Col. Lamar then adJressed the Con vention as follows : Gentlemen of the Convention—I feel that I could best express my tranks for the honor you have conferred up on me by silence. It is a matter of congratulation that in this, the most momentous political crisis which has come upon us since the revolution which lost to us every thing save honor, Georgia has sent to her capital the exemplar ot her wis dom, integrity and courage to take counsel together. For myself, let me invoke your kindest indulgence and consideration while I say that the duties devolved upon me shall be discharged faithfully. For you, gentlemen, permit me to invoke that harmony, that good feel ing and self-abnegation, that should always control men bound together r»y ties that link brother to brother.— As representatives of a great party which has borne emblazoned upon its crest for more than half a century the fundamental principles of personal lib erty, let us see that when we sei.d our voice to greet that of our brethren elsewhere, we abate not one jot or tit tle of that shibboleth that has often led us to victory aud always consoled us in defeat. Let us march up to this issue as men prepared to bury in a common grave personal pride, passion, preju dice and ambition, and while we see crumbling around us in a storm which we could not avert all the monuments of civil liberty, let us, with a devotion like oEneas of old, when he bore An- chises from the burning runs of Troy, take upon our brawny arm our old Mother, Georgia, and with stout hearts march through all dungers to place her upon a piuacle of safety and honor. Mr. Lamar’s speech was received with unbounded applause, aud he then announced the Couvention fully organized and ready for business. Colonel Thomas Hardeinaa moved that a committee of three from each Congressional district be appointed to prepare business for this meeting, to was equivalent to affronting the dread ed Bismarck, as the Pope well knew. But, in the opinion ot the - Pope, the Cardinal Prince was appointed to Rome decidedly more in the interests of German politics than in those of the church—which was obviously true— and he was not willing to have about him a man in the double capacity of representative of a Protestant and hos tile power and also of a cardinal hold ing a key to all the mysteries of the Vatican. There was undeniably something suspicious in the appoint ment of the Cardinal Prince, and the Pope had a perfect right to except to him, but it may be doubted whether that was a good policy. Following tlie rejection of the ambassador so shrewdly selected by Bismarck, ap pears a bill in a German Reichstag, proscribing or depriving of theii rights of citizenship all the members ot the Society of Jesus in Germany. The bill applies to foreign and native-born Jesuits alike* We do not understand that they are to be expeiled from the empire, but that they are liable to ex pulsion on a simple police order.— How long they will remain in Ger many depends on their behavior.— The ground of this measure is the obe dience which the Jesuits render to the Pope, as the sovereign, in preference to Emperor William. They are re garded as enemies of the State, ami dangerous, though it seems incredible that in so strongly a Protestant coun try as Germany, governed with such vigor, any body of men so limited in number as the Jesuits, could actually be a menace to the supremacy of the civil government. The passage of Dr. JOHN BULL’S GREAT REMEDIES. whom all resolutions shall be referred this bill by the Reichstag is Bismarck’s without reading.

The proprietor of this celebrated medicine Justly claims for it a superiority over all remedies ever offer ed to tbe public for the safe, certain, speedy and per manent cure ot Ague and Fever, or Cnills and .- ever, whether ot short or long standing. He refers to tb. entire Western and Southern eouutry to bear him tes timony to the truth of (he asaeiti.m, that iu uo case whatever will it fail to cu<e if tlie directions are strictly followed and carried out. Iu a great many eases a single dose has beeu sudicieut for a cure, and whole families have been cured by a single bottle, with a peitect restoration of the gen. ral health. It is, however, prudent, and in every case more certain to cure, if its use is continued iu smaller doses lor a week or two after the disease has been checked, more es pecially in difficult and long-standing cases. Usually this medicine will rot require auy aid to keep the bow els in good order. Should the patient, however, re quire a cathartic medicine, after tiaving taken three or lour doses ot the tonic, a single dose of Bull's Vcge table Family Pills will be sufficient.

Upon the call for the yeas and nays t ict alternate, he being chosen a dele- upon tlie adoption of Mr. Simmons’ substitute for the report of the com mittee, the vote stood, yeas 172£, and tbe nays 122A. The chairman then declared the first set of Fulton county delegates the legally elected ones, and entitled to all the privileges of delegates from Fulton county. The Committee on Business, through their chairman. Col. Thomas Harde man, reported a series of resolutions ndoptiug the Democratic platform of 1S70, and iu favor of sending dele gates to the National Convention un trammelled, and free to act in behalf of Georgia as the exigencies of the times and tbe case may require. H. H. J. The Pope’s New Troubles.—It seems to be the destiny of tlie Pope, in his encounters with emperors and kings to be more and more restricted to the exercise of his spiritual powers only. The deprivation of his tempo ral sovereignty by the absorption ol States of the church in the kingdom of Italy left but little more for him to lose, but that little is gradually van ishing. It is the evident desigu of Victor Emanuel to bring the Roman Catholic Church in all secular res pects as much under the control of the State as any other form of religion would be. The King, claiming that the existence of convents in Italy in volves a violation of international law, an order is issued reaching 6uch al- eged abuses. Against this the Pope protest with his usual courage and ve hemence, declares that reconciliation between the Holy See and the Italian government is now impossible, and gate from the State-at-large. NEW ENfal.AND. In many places in New England, says tlie New York Express, aldersurespring- ing up in the pastures, young pines ap pear in the ancient mowing fields, and feathered birches wave where once the farmers turned their rich furrows. In New Hampshire, nearly 9,000 people left during the lastdecade, and as many u ore left the agricultural towns for the cities and villages. Maine barely held its own during the last decade. There was a loss in the agricultural towns and a gain in the manufacturing. Througiiuot NewEnglund general agri culture is becoming of less account re latively each year while special farm ing and manufacturing is steadily on the increase. Of the six States east of the Hudson river, Vermout is the nearest to raising its own bread—pro ducing 454,000 bushels of wheat in 1869 or a bushel and a peck to each in habitant. Taking the army rations of 22 ounces of flour per day as a basis for computing tbe consumption of bread, it follows, Vermont raises bread enough to supply the people of that State thirty-seven days. To make up the deficiency they are obliged to purchase 3,S3G,000 bushels per annum. Maine produces 278,000 bushels, sufficient to last 11 days, and purchases 8,500 000 bushels. New Hampshire produces 193,000 bushels—little more than a half bushel to each inhabitant; and pur chases 4,260,000 bushels or ail over a 10 days’supply. Connecticut makes a poorer show producing 38,000 bushels —a supply of bread for two days— and purchasing 7,518,000 bushels.

Several very eminent physicians who exain.ned my spine informed ine that I was threatened with paralysis or appoplexy any day, aud that nothing but a seton would relieve me, 1 had a perfect horror ot that, aud was hesitating about havmg oue inserted, when you kindly sent me your Sarsaparilla which I immediately begun to take three limes a day. I had suffered terribly with a most acute pain m the rigtu side of my head, especially when I would read or write for any length of time, and on rising to my feel I would be periectly blind tor several minutes, and would have to hold to something to prevent falliDg. I atn most happy to inform you that the paiu iu my head is entirely relieved ; I suffer but seldom with my spine and theu not so acutely- My appetite is good ; iudeed for the first time in iny lite I enjoy my dinner more thau any meal during tUe day. Yon kindly sent ine tour bottles again last night, and I began again this morning, and 1 hope to be en tirely relieved. Please accept my heartfelt thanks aud best wishes. Very truly your most grateful friend, M. B. C. Rivers. My journal abounds with similar letters, all of which 1 guarantee to be genuiue aud wr tlea by tha persons whose names they bear. Do not suffer yourself to be imposed on. Don't be drawn away after new aud dnub ful exp**t ioieuts. Don’t risk your health by letting novices experiment upon you with their trash. My 8arsapari.'I« tins stood tlie test tor tw enty five years . it is still the .Sarsaparilla ot the day, aud ot the age, towering over all others iu popularity and its cuiattve qualities. Avoid all those who are trying to pahn off on yon other extracts of Sarsaparilla, so-called. Remember .t is Dr- John Bull’s Sarsaparilla, of Louisville, Ky , that is the old: and reliable remedy tor impurities of the blood aud scrofulous affections. Always bear that ip mind. Another Testimony. that only a regard for the highest in- i ^Lissuchusetts raised only 34,000 bush- terests prevents his leaving Rome This protest is directed to foreign powers, but it is easy to see that it will have but little influence upon them. France is the only European country that would lift a finger to | ro- tect the Pope in the matter and she is powerless to aid him. With Italy, and probably dictating Italian policy, is the great German Empire. Against two such opponents, Pius IX. is strug gling at iearlul odds, but he does it gallantly, notwithstanding his advanc ed age, and in a temporal sense the crippled condition of his power. No potentate on earth could have rejec ted with more dignity the ambassador sent to Rome by the German Empe ror, because ot his unacceptable char acter. He was the Cardinal Prince Hohenlohe, a personage high in the re gards ot imperial court and exalted in the church. To refute to receive him els or just bread enough for breakfast and dinner, but not for support! The purchase was 20,300,000 bushels of wheat. Rhode Island raised 784 bush els of wheat in 1869, and purchased 3.000,000. The New England States together purchase from lorty to fifty million bushels of wheat, and quite as much of other grains, or in rounJ numbers J00,000,0U0 bushels of grain. Col. Shaller has published a valua ble and interesting pamphlet on the subject of Foreign Emigration, and shows up the dirty tricks resorted to by Northern men to prevent Imigra- tion to the South. He contends that our success will depend upon the es tablishment of Slate agencies in Eu rope. We learn that the Boston Peace Ju bilee is likely to continue until next Saturday.

Beiug moved so often, my wounds have not healed yet. I have not set up a moment since I was wounded. I am shot through the hips.

Johnson: Dr John Bull—Dear Sir : My husband, Dr. C. S. Johnson, was* skillful surgeon and physician in Cen tral New York, where lie died, leaving the aoove U. P. Johnson to iny care. At thiiteen years of age he had a chronic diarrhea and scrofula, for which I gave your Sarsaparilla. It cured him. I have for ten years recommended it to inauy in New York, Ohio and Iowa, for scrofula, fever soies, and general debili ty. Perfect success has attended it. 'Ihe cure* ef fected in tome rases of scrofula and feter sores were almost miraculous. I am very anxious for my son to again have recourse to your Sarsaparilla. He is fearful of getting a spurious article, lieuee his writing to you for it. His wounds were terrible, but I believe he will recover. Respectfully, JENNIE JOHNSON. BULL’S WORM DESTROYER.
