THE APPEAL. By JAS. P. SAWTELL. CUTHBERT: FRIDAY, July 19, 1872. FOR PRESIDENT. Horace GJ-reeley, OF NEW YORK. FOR VICE-PRESIDENT, 11. Gratz Brown, OF MISSOURI. Absent. —For tTie next rndnth or six weeks we will be absent from .oar post, rusticating in the “moun tings and vallies” of Tennessee. We have made ample arrange ments-for the management ot the Ar. peal in the mean time, and can confidently assure our patrons they will be none the loser in the change. In this connection we take occa-' nion to state that the Appeal is indefinitely withdrawn from the market. “Do good to them who (have) despite/ally vsc(d) $ou n may serve as an explanation why Governor Smith has such zealous supporters in some parts of the State. Within the next thirty days, if we are not mistaken, they will ‘‘turn the other cheek also.” In their departure, however, we would ad monish them to rcihember ofd. Mrs. Lott. Fob Congress.—W. O. Fleming of Baiubridge is, in our opinion, the C miing man for the next campaign In this District for Congressional honors. He is a man favorably known and highly esteemed throughout South-west Georgia, for his fine legal attainments, and in tiinsic wo\th. If nominated and will run, his many friends will give him a zealous support, and when e’ccted will represent his constitu ents ably and faithfully, with honor to himself and credit to his section. • 1W We are pained to learn of the sudden death of Hon, Linton Stephens, on Sunday evening last at Sparta, Ga., lie was taken sud denly ill on Saturday with conges tion of the bowels, which termina ted as above stated. His loss is a sad one to Georgia, as he was one of her brightest sons, whose judge ment upon political or'legal issues carried weight throughout the en tire State and country. The State Road Lease. —ln our nett issue we will publish a lengthy yet interesting letter from ex-Gov, Brown to Mr. R. W.. Phillips, a member of the Legislature, upon the subject of the Lease of the State road. We have no doubt w hatever but that the present disposition of this property meets the sanction of a largo majority of the tax payers of the State, as it pays into the Treas ury a monthly rent of $25,000, and is out of the hands of political rings and tricksters, and cannot be used for political purposes. While n satisfactory guarantee is given that the read will be returned to the State in as good condition as when taken charge of by the lessees. Stokes. —The jury which was so carefully tried by Stokes’ counsel, t has proved itself up to the standard desired by the murderer, and made a mistrial of a ease where the evi dence was conclusive and positive. It is hardly possible that Stokes will ever be hung. “The editor of the Americus Re publican who lias just returned from a tour through a large portion of Southwestern Georgia, reports the canvass: There is great opposition to Gov. Smith on account of the dis position he made of the land scrip, and his respiting Spann the wife murderer. James stock seems to be gaining rapidly. Wo conversed with a number of very prominent gentlemen during our recent travels in this section of the State, who are decidedly James men, and will sup port him foi ljis great financial abil ity. There is ijo denying the fact that Mr. James has developed strength unexpected to his oppo nents. lie will be a very formi dable opponent in the coming Con vention. Burglaries.- I — Macon appears to bo having a “ high old time’’ with the burglars. Almost every night from three to five houses are enter ed and valuables stolen. Tight times are telling on them, with a vengeance. Business —Gormon of tbo Tab botton Standard, has gone to Eu-. rope, and will visit London, Paris, Glasgow, Edinburgh, aud other im portant points in the interest of his paper. We may expect to see the Standard crowded with advertise ments from these points soou. The Legislature assembled Wednesday last. The Democratic Stale lion meets ou Wednesday ne. vl —a'" The Baltimore Nominees. Wc place at the head of our col umns to-day the names of the nom inees of the Baltimore Convention, as candidates for President and Vice President of the phited Strifes. In doing so we cannot say they arc our choice, further than that they come with a recommendation from, the great National Democratic par ty, in convention assembled. While wc would have greatly preferred supporting others, still we think it advisable and a ditty imposed upon us, however it may conflict with our personal preferences, to do so to the best of our ability. The Cincinnati platform has much that we can endorse, and some things we abhor. Greeley’s letter of acceptance is as good as we couli hope fdr, and better than we could get by making an inde pendent race. The Baltimore Convention was composed of men, in whose wisdom and patriotism we should confide. They considered the overthrow of the present Administration and the defeat of his party,- the first great object to be accomplished, and it is only the means they have adopted for the accomplishment of this eird, that meets with opposition—as we take it for granted true patri ot will endorse tho object, it was generally conceded that this' Could only be done by ratifying the ac tions of the Cincinnati Convention, which was done almost unanimous ly. That by the electiou of jiff’. Greeley, the chpin would be broken, and the way opened for the restor ation of constitutional liberty, and the rights and privileges of the sev eral States recognized. We know there are a few in this as well as other sections, who will not support Mr.' Grcel6y, but we cannot accord, to them any superior wisdom or patriotism, or love for the peace and prosperity of our country oil. this .account. They bad publicly declared, many of them, before the nomination, that .they would not support Afr. Gree ley, if nominated, imd since his nom ination has transpired consider it more patriotic and wise to adhere to their declarations than to alline themselves with a hppe of over throwing our common arid national erunics. We exceedingly regret to sec some of our good and infiuen tial citizens taking this stand, and uncompromisingly avow . their de termination to fight it out on the line of not voting in the election. It may be that before the day of election all, or a large portion of this class will feel that they would vote for. the nominees, but for the declarations made to the contrary. Under such circumstances they would not sup port any one, however much they might feel it a duty or even a pleas ure to do so. Wisdom and discre tion should rule the hour, and be fore committing yourself to cither course, first consider calmly and impassionately the duties involving upon you as a citizen of the country. k Our representatives, considering it impolitic arid too hazardous to make a straight nomination, sought to'accomplish that which was most of all desired—the overthrow, of tho Radical party—iu their judg ment adopted the surest means to accomplish .this end, and it is the duty of the Democracy of the land to sustain them in their decis ions’? What can be hoped for or ac complished in a split, or by reius ing to act ? Again, Mr, Greeley is de facto, our candidate, aS much sons though there had never been a Cincinnati Convention. If the Democratic party, considered that Mr. Greeley was the only man with which we could whip the fight, we say they aeted wisely in making tho nomina tion, as wc fully endorse the com mon expression* of “ anything to beat Grant.” There is but two Grant and Greeley—and a refusal to vote for Greeley, virtually casts a half vote for Grant. Will this be a brighter record to leave to pos terity than supporting tho man recommended to us by our‘lead ers, in whose patriotism and fidel ity to the principles we love and cherish, none can doubt? Already the leaders of the Radi cal party begin to read, tho hand writing upon tbe wall, and petitions are being circulated in the North west, and universally signed, re questing and urging Mr. Grant to retire, and allow the substitution of another name, as the prejudices against jiim are too great for a hope of his success. If -we are only true to our representatives, who had the power and the right to speak for us, the day is not far distant when the liqel of our oppressors shall be removed from our necks, and peace, prosperity and self:gov ernment will be restored to our State arid nation. , 3 . ..-nrhe 1 M iflttr v r , iNsuueuuiii to. ti|e Go . nave the route for aUrauch railroad PatentO ofjk Muiitlily for western ; RailroadJ ’ full 'it. .mtvd lalbotton surveyed, and. nu csti- r .rin.a, !

We call attention to an article in to day’s paper copied from the*“Car tcrsville Express and- Standard” re commending Col. Le-wisTumlin, of Bartow for Congressman at Large. We heartily? endorse tho article ami hope tfoe convcntip.n-will so far regard the great future .of Georgia as to confer the. nomination upon one so well calculated to aid in building up the. material prosperity of the. State. Lewis Tutnltn’s riariie is a household wdrd in North Geor gia—tile high and knv—rich arid poor, praise his flame for tiis big brain and large heart—he com mands their respects and' confi dence, to the highest degree. From our earliest days we have heard bis. name connected with every meas ure involving the prosperity, and welfare of bis section of the State. We also giver place to a commu nication, signed “ Bartow ” penned by one of the leading men of the Stato, suggesting, in connexion with Lewis Tamlin, the name of Gen’l Phil Cook, of Southwest Georgia. General Cook .was elect ed to Congress from this district soon after the close of the war, but was not permitted to take his seat. Wc have heard his name frequent ly mentioned, in connexion with congressional honors from this dis trict. Wc arc sure tils friends would not object to giving- him a position on,the ticket for tho State at large. For ourself wc are ript in clined to express a preference among the many good men in Southwest Georgia, prefering their claims should be canvassed and tho. best man selected. We will add, how ever, that we know of no reason why we should not be perfectly sat isfied with General Cook. Randolph C ounty Demo cratic Ulceting'. Cutiibekt, Gx., July 13, 1812. In obedience to the call of the Democratic Executive Committe of Randolph county, a large and intel ligent number of citizens assembled at the City Hall at 11 o’clock A. m., and organized by B. S. Worrell, Esq., being called to’ the chair, and Samuel McNeil being’appomted Sec retary’. The object of the meeting was explained by lion. W. D.-Kid doo, chairman of the Executive Committee. On motion of Col. ll.' Fielder, a committee of three from each dis trict was appointed to suggest busi ness for the action of the meeting, and to suggest suitable persons tQ represent' the county in th 6 guber*. natorial convention so assemble in Atlanta on tbe 24fh inst. During the absence of committee the meeting was addressed by Hon. Win. M. Tumliu, lion. 0. P. Beall and Samuel McNeil—Messrs. Tum li n and Beall advocating -the en dorsement of the Baltimore conven tion and Mr. McNeil as' decidedly against voting for Horace Greeley. The committee submitted the fol lowing report, which was adop ted : Resolved, That we send eight delegates to the Gubernatorial Con vention, and suggest the following gentlemen as suitable to represent the corinty in said Convention, with power to appoint alternates: C. A. Harris, Hon. William M. Tumlin, John W. Avant, Hon David 'Golf, Hon. S. A. Smith, Win, F. Davis, Wm. 11. Greer, Geo. W. Oliver. On motion of Jus. T. Harden, Col. 11. Fielder, was added to the delegation. Tho following resolutions as pre sented by the committee were adop ted. * ' . Resolved, Ist. That the delegates appointed go Uninstructed. Resolved, 2d. That wc endorse the administration .’of Governor James M. Smith,'anabelieve him to 'be a sound patriot, an honest and* faithful officer, and recommend him for renoinination. On motion of Hon. S. A. Smith, the meeting adjourned. B. S. Worrell, Chairman. Samuel McNeil, Secretary. . A New Republican Candidate Called for, —We find tho follow ing-iu the New York Evening Post. A Cincinnati-paper says that Mr. Richard Smith, of that city, is en gaged in getting the •signatures of prominent western politicians to a letter to General Grant,, asking him to retire from the presidentiaf con test and leave the National Com mittee to, nominate some new can didate. Mr. Smith and those act ing with him, it is said, argue that certain defeat will follow the Re publican party under General Grant, while under some new candidate, there is a chance of defeating Gree ley.

Loehrane 1 ? reply is for cible, concise and pointed, but is too lengthy for "publication. The fol lowing from Brown shows where he stands, and leaves “ Bobby ” in .rather an'unenviable, position bes ore tho public : Atlanta, Ga., July 'l7, 1872. Editors Constitution : As Gen eral Toombs-lias thought proper to. appear again in print before the public,While a personal issue was pending between him and me, I have a very‘simple reply - for him. In his card dated the IRA inst., arid published on the 10<A- he - refers to as resorting to, the usual dodge, of a vulgar pultroori. This man, having been branded by me as an unscrupulous liar, fan cied, perhaps, that he had sufficient courage to defend his personal hon or, or perhaps ho thought*, he could safely play tho role of a bully. Ac cepting, therefore, the position of the injured party, and feeling no little Concern about my church re lations, he Sent a . friend to mo to inquire if I held myself amenable to £he codo of honor. T replied as follows: Col. J. C. Nicholls entered my office, on'the morning of the 9th inst., and said, “ I desire to see you a moment privately,” When the following conversation occurred : Nicholls—“ I have come in be half of Gen. Toombs to make an inquiry of-you.” Brown—“ Well, sir, I will hem' "you.” • • ' Nicholls—“On account of your church relations, Gen. Toombs docs not know whether -you hold yourself amenable to tbe code, and whilo I admit this is, an irregular proceed ing, in behalf of General Toombs, I make the inquiry.' 1. Brown—.“lt seems, to me, this course is extraordinary. General Toombs has nothing to do with my church relations. . If he desires ‘to send me a communication, I am ready to receive it at any moment. I have conferred with, a friend who docs not live in Atlanta, but l will telegraph him at once,, and respond to a communication,, if made, after, referring to him, without unreason able delay. Are you General Toombs’ friend in this matter?” ' Nicholls—-“I am not, in that, sense. I expect to’ have nothing whatever to do with the matter." 1 only come.to snake this enquiry, at Gei:. Toombs’ Suggestion. He may desire a little'time, as he will have to get a friend who resides out of the State,' for he does not wish to complicate his friends in the State.” # Brown—H shall not trouble per sons out .of the State. I have -a friend iu the State who will serve me.” Nicholls—“l would liice to.know whether you hold yourself bound by*the Code ? v - . . Brown—“ Say to General Toombs distinctly that I am ready.to. re ceive any communication, that lib desires to send,' and if I don’t re spond properly, he knows liis rem edy.” Nicholls"—“What I have done in this instance is simply an fict of friendship to Gen. Toombs, because he requested it. ■ I expect to take no part in any unpleasant affair be tween you and* him.” Brown—“ Say to Gen Toombs; I hold rfiyself ready to givo any. sat isfaction which I may be duo him, or to which be is entitled as a gen mam” ' . This language is. -in General Toombs’ possession in Writing over my own signature. To be certain that be received it as uttered, -it was sent to him, on the 10th, after he left Atlanta, by the first express to his home at Washington. This eode-of-honor gentleman left Atlanta the day- after this lan guage was uttered. He responded in the’ newspapers.' I leave the pub lic-to judge who is the paltroou, and whether General Toombs preferred newspaper artillery to heavier met al. Joseph E. Brown • The .

Pum- N. F. BUKNIIAM. Yu-k, Pd. Congressman for the Stale at large .---Hon. Lewis Tiiiiilin Sugges ted as one of the Candi dates. Messrs. Editor's :—The Atlanta Sun, in BaturdavVtssue, calls atten tion to the fact tho two new Congressmen allowed to this State by the apportionment act passed at the last session of Congress, will probably, be nominated by the Con -yention on the 24th., and ejected from Urn- State at large. If this course be pursued there can; be no doubt that the nominees of the Democratic? Convention will be elec ted. I suppose it will be conceded on all hands that North Georgia .is entitled to one of the members, and the only question then to be 'deter mined } so far as this portion of the State is concerned, is, who shall re ceive the nomination? Hon. Lew is Tumfin is suggested as a .gentle man well qualified for the position c.onipcterit to the discharge of the high trust-imposed up.on a member of Congress, and in every way wor thy and deserving of the honor im plied. Cql: Tumfin is a representa tive man of that class of our citizen whom we .ought to take .special pride in honoring, lie is a .tried and true Democrat '; he is a man of an acute and 'comprehensive .intel lect, of extraordinary business, qual ifications, of large and varied expe rience, always ilberabmiudod, and of great benevolence ; he is a self made mail—having begun life -with out other capital than an active In tellect, a genial nature, and an.-hon est purpose to go to work' io belter his condition in life, arid being now probably the wealthiest citizen in North Georgia. Col. Tumlin is a farmer, the largeer majority of his large property consisting of farming lands, and stock for cultivating them —his interests being thus identical with those of the great majority of our people. Ilis property was ac cumulated, not by engaging with “rings” in disreputable speculations, but by honest, untiring, energetic work, and it cannot be denied that his management of it in the past and in the present shows the rarest business qualifications, lie is not an office Seeker, but lie would accept this high tiust as be would undertake to perform any other duty. ' Moreover Col. Tumlin has special, claims upon, our own’ citizens, greater perhaps than any other man in North. Georgia. He has a large amount of capital inves ted among us, and gives' .employ ment to many laboring people. He has done more perhaps than, any other man towards building "our Court Houses and Churches, estab lishing our Schools, and supporting our poor. Again, I repeat, our people ought to take pride in hon oring such jnen as Col. Tumlin, 11c is honest, capable any! worthy, and I hope his claims will not fail to secure from the. Convention the con sideration they merit. —Vdrteremlle Standard and Express. ■ LCiriA dead body was recently discovered, adrift on a rock in FfTnt river, at a point known as Hull Gate, fourteen, miles below Newton, Ba ker county.
