Macon, Jun« I, 1*7 U Editors Telegraph and Mewni/er : 1 see some of my ftictids douht tt-y au thirity to call ti tueutitig ol the Kxcc citivo Coin nittce of the Democratic party. If they will refer o the pro Cecdings i/I tlx! oonYentioti|crcating the Commit ten, th-.ir douh'S will vanish. Others nlijuct to tho tinu*, tliiukin. can-lidutci should l/e placed to the field immediately. Upon conference with aotnn of tbo committee I burned that it was more probable 1 would secure a quorum at tbe time uppunttd than ut uu cat tier day. Again, it was thought (but a shoit, active campaign would bu more effect¬ ive tli an a long, tedious one during the Bummer tnantlm. Hie executive com¬ mittee also desire, while advocating tlio cause ol no aspirant lor tbo i iTtees end horn rs of the partv, to so shape their notion and that of the party as to give no cause of ofTcnse to any one Hone- they thought that simple ju-ticu w-fj-ors I that rheenlt *hnnbt bn ma-ti*. so dun alt parties, those present and those absent on duty, should at least be placed upon tut sehistus equal looting. This will prevent und jealousies, ami was necessary for the harmony •ltd prosperity of tlie party. I liopo this simple explanation will convince all our liicud* of tho wisdom of our action, for we are looking only to tlio success ol our cause and the fare of the State.

CONVICT POItt'E. A in st grave and practical problem for our legislature to solve, is a wise and judicious disposition of our large and increasing convict force in the State T ho old Penitentiaiy system which ftrevailed in Milkdgovillo until some time dining the war, may be regarded as a failure ; having been found too expensive, even with the small number ot felons then confined in its cells.— Now the number is trebled, and at the present ratio of increase, ten yiars hence will find perhaps two thousand of these unfortunate persons in the hands of our State authorities. Tito present system of farming them out in squads of fifty, .and a hundred, . the , portions .. of e the , State , in various to pmate individuals, may be regarded only ns nu experiment, and one which, in our judgment, will not prove satis- i I'iic.ory, ot ]>ermaneof. Wo .IrMtly ! I li.-ur niwnr. ol <li.«atioluction ,ill. .lie plan, eoniirig from tho people, and the reasons upon which their complaints are founded, will very surely reach und in¬ fluence tho public judgment. These toasoni aro threefold, and are as iol lows: 1st. They ought to bo worked for the fttblto good and not lor private benefit. 2tl. The State woubl be far more apt to see that tiieir confinement in every ease resulted in punishment, than pri j vatu individuals who might, in some j particular ciscs, be undet temptation ‘ to rdax ... tins pun.sl.mcnt, . , and , perm,t some terrible felon to escape it altogether. 3d. The .State would be far more ! capabU of guar-ling them tl an private individual.®, with a view to their being securely kept, and also prevented fioui endangering tb« peace of any comtnu uity in which they might be thrown. Wo do not propose to discuss positions luither than «-, say, that , they | Cover tlio ground, anrl nre louuded in a j correct thet»ry. All will admit that It Iona ought to be well punished they ought to be securely and inexpensively 1 J . and . . . , . - i- , t wor e at all, their labor should be expended on public wotks. or bu made to contribute to the public grxjd. In the absence of all llailroad enter pii.'.o in the State, wc think the wisest, salest and most uselul plan ol dispoM mg of tlio convict force of the State, is in working the pulilic roads ot cadi county. '1 he plan is perfictly fuasiblo in every respect and woul-l greatly sure to the advantage of the public, ‘ by J .. , , 1 ring us c .ms t toroug t ares lor the travelling and tuaiketing public; ami by ridding tho counties ol a per pctu.il tl'uublo Hii-M-t; evihv ww-i Kail from having t> abstract uselul la ber from the firms to work , tbe , roads. , living I bus all worked in a body, they could bo easily and cheaply guarded, and they would in this way contribute more to tbo development ot the State, the convenience of the citizens and tbe enhancement ol values on lands than iu any other wc can think of. For the Times A Planter. Dkvkkklx, Ga., June 1st, ’71. Messrs, Editors During a hasty thunder storm that passed over this vicinity on Sunday the -Itlt ultimo,, the resilience of Mr. Wm Calmer, a few miles lrnni this place, was struck by lightning, endangering the lives ol nearly Ids whole family. Mi. Palmer, bis son and Mr. Cham¬ pion were sitting in the piazza, on the Nnith lido ol tbe house, some fifteen feet from two shade-trees that stood a( the end of tbe piaaaa The electric tluid descended both of those, shivering the larger one nearly the wholo length ol its trunk. Another portion of the electricity penetrated tlio roof of tbe dwelling about half way up and uear tho gable, ieavit g k hole very much resembling one made by the entrance ol a largo slid!. Thence it descended the window posts, ripping ofl about five feet ol woatherboardtng and nearly as much ceiling ; broke all the glass in the sash and set the window curtain on tiro. It also tore tbo mantle from its ptaee, and throw it am) a lounge that was against the wall, into the centre of the room. A tl->ck, some g’ass vases, and vat unis ornaments were on the mantle, but strange to say, none of them wore broken. Tbe chimney was forced off some six inches from the house. All the gentlemen, named above, were s verely shocked—Mr. l’altntr more severely than the others, he being e nearer than they. , , He says be has no recollection of any report, and it was only after the free application of cold wafer to his MMk.bN. bad occurred. A negro who was chopping WixvJ thirty yards Iroui the place the light Ding struck, was knocked down bu: not t„ ^ ^ » ' L T port the whole, . it wa? a very nar row escape, for which they, a* chris ,ia » gentlemen, are, no doubt, pro ^ foundly grateful. l-u.wuta.ww.Wf.ta lately “li*»htnin"-rod decided, that a man who kicked a ^ ‘ ^ r ^ was nnt Ue to the law punishing amault and battery ; yet ! ata fully visit convinced if one ol them «h<-uld Mr IVi- w treat him otherwise than with stiict politeness.
