While we ItuaJ our personal relations will suffer interruption, yet since this last act of Ilia administration we have Wti com- ;iel!ed to split with him politically, for the iollowing, which we consider, good and valid reasons: Firrt, the |>o]itical r- cord of Gov ernor Biown during the black-days of Georgia, is such, that we cannot cons ceive how. Governor Colquitt could have possibly appointed him General Gordon's successor, without doing the greatest and grossest injustice to Georgia “and the Democracy which honored him with the position he uow holds.' Secondly, there are a number of good, true, tried, capable and faithful Democrats nud patriots in Georgia who have never bceu found wanting when our State or the Democratic party have needed tlivir services, who have ever'been ti ue and faithful to Governoi Colquitt as a friend and Governor, , and some ono of whom the whole people of Georg it expected him GOVERNOR COiquiTT IJi ATHENS. 1 Now. a- to the iin-aliefu.lury pnri Ariived in Ath7w via N.

Brown , which we could not do with out going back ou all the political record we have ever made, and fur thermore hi* re-election would in no small degree contribute to the election of Governor Brown an Senator by the next Legislature, which God forbid we should ever nid in the ainalleat imaginable degree. ‘ As to General Gordon’s resigning, we have only to say, that unquestion ably be had a legal right to do so, but that the time and inamur in which he did so, was certainly unjust both to himself and the people of Georgia who had honored Inm with so high a trust. We can’t see how General Gor don got his consent to resign his posi tion as United Slates Senator just at a time when this country is just upon the eve of the most important politics battle ever before fought in the histo ry of our government. One which involves the very existence and perpe-. tnity nf our free, republican institu tions. It occuis to us that any one of his illu.-tii.iiis> predecessors would have occupied their Senatorial seals with patched trous>n ami thread tiare ! coats, before tin y would have resign ed at such a juncture. Again, we do not think Gcm ral Gordon did right in keeping the purpose of his resigning a secret from the people ot Georgia, and an > then shucking the whole country with its suddenness. The General ought certainly lo have put the people on i ottce, li\ making hi, resignation to have takeu eff-ct at tome future t ine.

As to the endorsement of the ImuiiIs ol the Northeastern Railroad, onr people do and will ever teel grntelul to Govern or Colquitt, but they consider that lie gave the endorsement because it was his plain and unquestionable duty to do so, under the law. and that it was by no meaus done aa a sjiecial favor to tbia people and this section. It only lor their sake, then the Govern- orjdid wrong. We are candid enough to say that we not only believe, but that we know. Governor Colquitt gave the endorsement liecause, not only the law, hut ilia credit and repuv tation of the Stato demanded it. Then the friends and stockholder* of the Northeastern Railroad only got llieir rightful duea at the hands of the Governor, while every other county in the State had an equal inteiesl in the endorsement, e* the Governor himself says, it wasa question involv ing the honor, the credit and th* lie: rated.
