PnUjpct to the Action of the Congressional Conven tion at Forsyth. COUNTY CONVENTION. At the request of a large Dumber of the citizens of Upson county, a convention of the county is called, to he hold at the Court House, on Saturday, the first day of Oc tober next, for the purpose of nominating a candidate for the House of Representatives A general attendance on the [tart of the people is earnestly urged, that the deliber ations of the convention rnnv he harmonious and the result satisfactory. Come one, come all ! The convention, when it assembles, will determine the manner of selecting a candi date, hut it is suggested by a great many citizens that the selection bo made by bal lot. CONVENTIONS. At a meeting of the Democrats of Upson county, held at the Court House, in Thom aston, on Saturday, the 13th ult., the fid lowing gentlemen were chosen delegates to attend the convention to he held in Talbot' ton, on the 15th inst., to nominate a candi date for the Senate from the 25th Senatorial District: Thos. S. Sharman, J. 0. Hunt, Jas. W. Atwater, J. 0. Zorn, D. W. Worn ble, and 11. T. Jennings. On Saturday last, 27rh ult., at a meeting of the Democrats of this county, held at the same place (Thomaston) the following gentlemen were selected delegates to attend the Fourth Congressional District Convene tion to be held at Forsyth, on Wednesday, the 21st day of the present month, (Sep tember,) to nominated candidates for the unexpired term of the 41st Congress and for the full term of the 42d Congress : E. A. Flewellen, W. T. Weaver, delegates; Wilson Sawyer, B. G. McKenney, alter nates. ORGANIZE. Now that the campaign is about to open, let us bestir ourselves. Our enemies are wide-awake and actively preparing for the tussel. Wo have work before us, and a great amount of it. We have seen what organization can do, in North Carolina and Tennessee, even though in these States organization was imperfect, owing to the presence of troops. There is danger in delay, and although the election is yet dis tant, if we would successfullv perform the horculean task before us, we must com mence immediately. We must have an energetic Executive Committee in each Congressional District; every county should he canvassed, every village should have a Democratic club, money must be raised, documents must be circulated, speakers must be employed, etc., etc. “Now is the time and now is the hour.” IION. JAS. S. BOYNTON. The gentleman whose name heads this article is spoken of as a suitable person for Congress from the 4th District. We un derstand his name will he urged in the Convention for nomination, by the delegates from six counties. This is a very flattering endorsement under any circumstances, but it is more than flattering in his case, as four of the counties that are foremost in urging his name are counties in which, he has resided and where he is thoroughly known. He was honored by election to office before the war, and discharged his duty as Colonel of the 30th Georgia Regi ment during the war; but his disabilities have been removed by Congress. In cast ing about to get a candidate for Congress, we can think of no one in the District bet ter suited for the position than Col. Jas. S. Boynton. lie is eligible, as before stated, and in every way competent and capable. ONE WORD. In the selection of candidates to repre sent us in Congress, nothing can bo more unwise than to choose men whose eligibility can be for a moment questioned. Radical power is waning. Events of the past ten years teach us that we contend with a powerful and cunning foe. Radical leaders In their extreme desperation, resort to the most infamous practices to render their authority lasting, without hesitation. A favorite scheme has been the unseating of duly qualified and elected Democratic mem bers, to make way for Radical contestants. This is no mere idle assertion. James Brooks, of the 3th New York district, was unseated, although elected by a large ma jority. Among others forced to yield, we mention George W. Greene, of the 11th New York district; John R. Reading, of the sth Pennsylvania; Henry D. Foster, of the 21st district of the same State; Daniel W. Voorhees, of the Gth Indiana ; George W. Morgan, of the Bth Ohio ; Gen. Shields, of Missouri ; Stockton, of New Jersey, and others. This is one of those “moral ideas” Democrats have to contend with. It secures representative (?) government. No one acquainted with the doings of the “God and morality party” can be so mis guided as to believe this practice will cease ; it will continue, and therefore, we warn the Democrats, in this State and o-thers, to select those only for Congressional honors whose disabilities have been removed—fully and entirely removed, as any other course per sued will enable the Radical plotters to give almost any complottion to the next C in gress they may choo°e to. Do not nominate candidates who are under the political disabilities of the 14th amendment. This would be political sui cide. TENNEBBKF. is on the move again. A I) .mocratic Convention has been called to assemble at Nashville, on the 13th of September, to nominate a candidate for Governor and “take such amps as may be necessary to secure the thorough organiza tion of the party.” Notwithstanding the machinations of the corruptionists in this State, we look for an overwhelming Demo cratic victory on the second Tue-dav in November next. We are assured of this by the great gains made in the late Judicial elections. Half a million dollars were spent by Grant and Holden's friends in the attempt to carry the election in North Carolina. Bout well has sent word to Grant at Long Branch that he is figuring on Geo-gia, and thinks a little over a million will do it. No matter, the people will foot the bills, faxes must be increased to replace these drafts on the Treasury. So the office holders “all hands 'round” and sing to the poople: “ You are fajreJ on rnur omcea. af.,rea, ann Toiirsunp, tin yonr stoves, on your wash-tubs, your broom* and your mop3, On your sbrotuls, on your tombstones; and after yon die, Tou are taxed on the coffin in which you must lie, We put oil the screws As hard as we choose, To be swindled dear people, yon should not refuse.” [ooMMUNICATfD.] A Convention will assemble in Forsyth on the third Wednesday, (21st) in Septem tember, to nominate a can iidate for Con gress bom the 4th. Congressional District. In casting the eye over the field, we find that the disaoilities imposed upon the great bulk of onr prominent fellow citizens, by a partisan National Assembly, make the number of talented and experienced legis lators, extremely limited, but this District is exceedingly fortunate in having one who rises above all the others in that good and available man, Col \Y J. Lawson, of the county of Bibb. If elected ho cannot be refused a seat upon the floor of Congress, because without even a request ur>"n his part, he has been relieved of all do-qualifi cations by legal enactment. He is a man of marked ability, not untried in public life, having served in the Georgia Legisla ture with signal success. Reciring from a lucrative legal practice to devote his time to agriculture, he has spent quite forty years of his life in ad vancing that paramount interest of the South. llis every aspiration and hope is inseparably connected with his native Southern clime, and his devotion and ad herance to it is so fixed and indisputable, and his abhorance of those treacherous be trayers of his State is so inter.se and undis guised, that “there is, even, no smell of five upon his garments.” lie is available, he is honest, he possesses unquestionable capacity, knows the wants of our people, comprehends the situation, and is equal to the emergency. But what is greater even than all, he is a Christian gentleman. Should the nomination be tendered him, his past success in life, whether in law, in agriculture, or in commerce, is a safe guar antee of his final triumph over his oppo nents end an earnest of the performance of his whole duty, to his country, his State, and his constituency. Citizen. RADICAL HUMBUG. The New York Staats Zeitung takes the Radicals to task for their professed sympa thies with Germany, and says : “The Radicals offowa have taken advan tage of the European situation to embody something in their platform. They have done like the Ohio Radicals, but carried the matter a little further, for they had the audacity to assert that the Democratic press of the country have declared for the French imperial dynasty and for the unfounded war. The only reason for this is the fact that certain Democratic papers in Northern cities have, for reasons of their own, been flirting with the Fenians. But nobodv can name a German Democratic paper which does not wish sueeess to the German arms. This clause in the platform betrays at once the intentions of the authors, and stamps them as the most unm tigated humbugs. * * The Radical jugglers who desire to catch German votes by empty phrases must take them for children or idiots. It is nothing less than an insult to the entire German po. ulation, and this manoeuvre will no doubt have a different effect from the one intended.” The Staats Zeitung fully understands the Radical game, and we doubt not the Radi cals will be rather unsuccessful in tneir efforts to induce German voters to swallow their gudgeons. We were struck with an editorial predic tion in the New York Times a few days since, to the effect that the recent complica tions in Europe would place the German vote of the United States under the control of the Republican party. But the Germans of this country will not be slow to comprehend the situation. They will clearly understand the professed sym pathies of the Radicals with Prussia. It is the result of a purely practical business calculation as to the number of German votes that can be influenced by the affected sympathy for Germauy. It the German voters of this country were a mere handful, as is the case with the French, and the French vote were number ed by hundreds of thousands, “under which king” would the Radicals serve? Would the “sweet German accent” then be such music to their ears ? We think not. “ Vive L ’ Empereur /” “ Dire la France!” would then be ibe slogan of the Patriotic New York Tribune and the sell-denying Phila delphia Press. The Germans of America know that the pretended sympathy of the Radicals of this country can have no influence on the result of the Franco-Prussian War. They feel that King William will be victorious with it ; that he would have been victorious without it. And they will not sell their political principles for so paltry a price as is offered by the Radical party. The Greeleys and Forneys must try an other dodge. Their extremity is great— bordering on desperation -but they cannot check the waning fortunes of their party by any of the disreputable expedients they are now trying.

It is reported that the vote on deeheance has been by yeas 185, nays none. The people are wiid with excitement and are rushing through the streets hear ing placards with the vote of the Corps Legislatif inscribed thereon. Shouts “Vive Repuboquo” are heard on all sides. Regiments passing into the city are re ceived- by the populace with deafeuing shouts of “Vive la L’gne, vive Republi que.” The National Guard reversed their arms as the regular troops passed, as a sign of amity. The scene is one of undescrlbable extite ment. Rumors of all kinds are in circulation, and it is impossible to ascertain their foun dation, but one sentiment seems to be par amount, resistance to invasion, the people shout to the rescue, and troops join en thusiastically. The Guard National says order must be preserved. The people evince but little desire to create trouble; all seem overjoyed at the vo r e of decheance. Later—Crowds are begining to tear down the Imperial arms from the front shops. There are fears that this may lead to serious trouble, as the National Guard are not inclined to permit these disorders.

Our Military Edit <k on tub Situation. —Our military editor makes the following astounding announcement: To day will probably witness the final r>vl l T\<*t inn b armT. -A trot- n earetul review of all ihe dispatches relative to Prussian victories, after flouring up the number "f killed. Wounded and prisoners on the French side, as found in the dis patches, and comparing them with the wh de number of French sddiers brought into the field, 1 find there are only about two thousand left, and this little handful of men “our Fri z,” with bis army of Buo,ooo men, be hasn’t lost a man yet, will easily be enabled to gobble up at his leisure, lie may not take them in to-day, but they will not be suffered to be at large longer than to-morrow, depend upon it. This may seem incredible, but if any one will take the trouble to collect the telegraph dispatches, since the opening of hostilities, add up the figures, he will see that l am correct. « llow many cannon did France have when she commenced the war? She had ne thousand seven hundred and twenty two. Now the Prussians (add up dispatches) have captured >ne thou. and seven hu dred and twenty cannon, leaving the French with two ca. non with which to carry on on the war. li King William don’t want to have the war sloped before he has had an opportunity for laying up a sufficient stock of honor f r his old age, he had better lend Napoleon a few cannon. Some may doubt the truth of my state m nt, but I think the dispatches will bear me out in them. Such a complete whiping out (according to Prussian accounts) of a hitherto powerful and warlike nation has never before occurred in he history of the world. We a wait with trembling interest to hear of the late of the remaining two thousand French, sad remnant ot Napoleon’s great army Cincinnati Times The New York Times concedes that the Republican party c u and have elected Lin coin upon no other issue than that of eman eipation ; that if it had not been for the rebellion the party would in all probability have gone to pieces long ago ; and that now, its great work being ended, the party is iri a critical condition, with no settled issues upon which to construct anew ground of action for the future. The negro has ceased to be a central figure, and the ani mosities and revenges ot the past have to a great extent died out. A sad state of things, truly, for a party upon the dominance of which, as Senator Morrill said in the Senate, the other day, the destinies ot the American Republic depend. No pc liey to cement it together ; no issues to sot forth as its springs of action ; no negro to give color and tone to the battle-cry of freedom ; no freedom indeed to be sought or gained ; no animosi ties or revenges to stimulate agitation or feed excitement ; its principles exhausted, wrought out and accomplished, its mission fulfilled, its work done—and yet its machin ery intact, its ambitiou rampant, its appetite for power unsatiated, and all its party im pulses as strong as ever. What direction is to be given the loyal and progressive gies of the party is toe problem which now agitates the pure an 1 and senterested minds of its leaders —those “knav s,” as the Na tion says, “who keep up the organization simply for the purpo-e of dividing the Fed eral offices among themselves. Effect op the War on the New Y< kr Banks— New York, August 14. The war in Europe continues to drain our banks of specie, thereby decreasing their bga! re serve, and forcing them to contract their loans. The total exports of specie for the past five weeks have been $22,530,215 Thus Europe has deprived us, in five weeks, of an amount nearly as great as that held by the New Yoik hanks at the present,time, to wit : .>24,104 302. That is to say, a drain of specie for the next five weeks like that of the last five weeks, will clear oct every dollar of gold now held by the New York banks. The loss of specie by the banks enforces a contraction of loans on them precisely the same as the loss of green backs or legal tenders to a similar amount. The banks reckon specie in their legal re serve the same as the loss of legal tenders to them so far as the contraction of bank loans is concerned. Their loans were de crease last week $2,534,525, and since the war commenced about $7,000,1)00. B nner, of the N *w Y >rk Ledger, is pub lishing a series twelve articles by distin guished U. S.
