er. Tuesday. Juke 29, 1880^ ‘Colquitt and his friends abuse no* body,’ says a correspondent of the Atlanta Constitution. Colquitt has abused the 82,000 Democratic major* ity which placed him in the Guberna* tonal chair, by the appointment of Joe Brown. The Chronicle and Constitution- alist nobly defends the claims of our deceased fellow cirisen Dr. Cratlfosd \V.

Dear Sir: — Yours oC a few days since confining notice of meeting ot your Executive Comir Htee was duly, received, and your request complied with as you have doub iess seen, per copies of the Bans fji. In re ply to your request for me to meet with you, I am sorry to say that a press of bus iness, together w jtjj a great phy-ical indisposition, W» jich at this time 1 fear bids fair to be a decided attack of stale in their certificate to said proxy sickness, will deprive me the pleasuie- the whole-number of Democratic .■esent a majority of the Demo- e. voters ul'snid county ; and fur* ermore that said certificate shall state the whole number of Democratic voters ot said county, and the exact number of voters present at the couuty meeting selecting said delegates to the Congressional Nominating Conven* ResplredJl That, we hold that no proxy shall be allowed in a Con gressional Nominating Conventidb, unless stud proxy be countersigned by the Chairman ; and Secretary of the •'Democratic fiWcnttYc^CoratnitJtee of the county from which the delegate, giving the proxy has beer, elected, setting forth the fact’tbat sai.i delegate so giving the proxy was duly and legally elected as such, at a coun ty meeting at which were preeent a majority of Aa-Damocratic voters of said county ; and furthermore ttiat said Chairman and Secretary shall STATE AND GENERAL NEWS. llopukicnus leaders tear Secretary Sherman’s course since his defeat at Chicago in removing Grant officials w ill injure the party and arc remon strating.

Resolved, 8: That thepioceedings of each- Congressional Nominating Convention, including a full report of The New York Journal of Corn* merce the most reliable and comer ea- tive Journal published in the U, S. highly eulogises General Hataorok in' these words: ’A polished and cultured gentleman, a brave and ntccesaful soldier, an upright and baueat man, ho is without stain and above re proach, fit to rit in the chair of Wash ington and represent the American people to the monarch# and statesmen of the world.’ It is because Garfield is thus not a strong candidate, and will doubtless become a weak one tliat public inter est centres at Cincinnati. The Con veulion there is to decide whether or not the Presidential race ia to be be tween two menofunsavory reputation, or between one of that kind and an* other whose name has never been con nected with anything dishonorable. If the former, the people will probably stay at home on both sides, in a way to astonish the politicians. If the lat* ter, those uncounted thousands who stay with the Radical party because, ou the whole, they think it has been a decent party, and those other thou* rands who are wavering, will como out and vote the Democratic ticket. wou’fll like to offer a few suggestions for the consideration of your commit • tO'a, and through your honorable body f'JV the consideration of the Democ racy of every county throughout the district. That charges “have been brought against the organized Democ racy, that are as baseless as they are slanderous, no just, fain-minded per son can deny These of course have been made for selfish and sordid pur poses. But that there have been and do exi*t i:i furnished the Democratic papers throughout the district for publication, by the Secretary of the Convention, immediately upon the adjournment ,ot said Congressional Nominating Con* vetuion. ■■ Resolved, 6. That with these enunciations, we, the Democratic Executive Committee of the 9th Con gressional District, cordially invite all Democrats of the district who have been estranged from our conventions, and all such as have fieen acting with the ‘Independents,’ to meet and-'cooperate with us in our . conventions i«bejholdeujin th'clfuture* the Democratic organization, j with the understanding that if the Rains have ben very partial in southwest Georgia.

I fail to see any thing unjust, unfair, impracticable, or even heroic in the plan proposed. But on.the contrary, unless some tucii plan i.> adopted providing lor a sure aud certain expression of the majority TO the democracy of tiie 9th cox-1 of the fJeiuobrats of each county, GRESsioxAL district, I then I can readily see wherein our Whereas, we the Democratic Ex- Congressionul Convcniiou* Will not ecutive Committee of the 9th Con* ' only prove unjust and unfair, but gressional District, in meeting wholly violative of the true aud time- assembled, recognizing as we do honored principles of pure and sound the importance, and the ne» D.-mocracy.

To the end, there fore, that these abuses, wherever they may exist, may be remedied and the integrity ol the Democratic parly pre served and the people have good offi cers and good government, we make tho following enunciation, viz : Resolved) 1. Tliat, we hold and so advise the Democracy of the 9th Con gressional District, that wheu a citizen is fairly nominated for office, by his party, he becomes tlu#-by the representative of his. party, and that it is his duty to use all honorable (none other) means to secure his elec, tion. Resolved, 2. Tliat, we heji tfust a person who seeks to obtain a nomination by the u«c 0 f the despicable means enunxeratec above, if known beforehand, ough: c not to bo nominated, and, if nomina ted—whether the practice of such means is developed before or afler hu nomination—he ought not to be elect* ed to office, and his nomination thus brought about does not hind any citi- aen who ratty have voted in the nom ination or other citizen to votu for such nominee at the election and hu need not do so, except as u choice of evils.
