OF NEW YORK."
FOR VTPE PRESIDENT :
15. GRATZ BROWN,
OF MISSOURI.
<iOv. Smith and Atlanta.
Nominations to Convention of 24th inst.
were made in Fulton cqunty by popular
vote. The friends of (governor Smith and
Banker James each nominated regular tick
ets. The vote resulted largely in favor of
Gov. Smith—an overwhelming repudiation
of James—a glorious triumph of Governor
Smith—a certain indication that the people
of Atlanta do not-favor rings and do endorse
Gov. Smith’s uncompromising warfare upon
them.
We congratulate Atlanta rather than Gov.
Smith upon this sensible termination of a
causeless War upon the present administra
tion. We acknowledge to having watched
with intense interest the result of this con
test. Had the people of Atlanta endorsed
this war of the rings upon their chief ene
*ny, Gov. Smith and attempt to foist
upon the State, such a man as James, we
for one and we believe the entire press of
the State, would have seen the necessity
imposed of advocating the re-transfer of
the State Capitol toMilledgeville. It would
have forced the conviction, that to ensure
pure legislation and untrammelled, the
Legislature should have #been removed
from any commercial or financial centre. —
The peoplo do not. forget that New York,
had to chaiige from New Albany.
-—Pennsylvania'from Philadelphia to Har
risburg —Louisiana ifrom New Orleans to
Baton Rouge-*-all to secure unbiased legis
lation, And had this attempt succeeded,
the peoplo would have seen that * a longer
continuance of the capitol at Atlanta would
have been fraught with the same danger,
to bo. cured by the same remedy—removal.
Wc congratulate Atlanta..
The Democrat
!nn? pupiancy, gulps' Greely. The ar
ticle “rings of the true metal’’ till it sounds
again. With a patriotism that we commend
to the imitation of others he accepts as law
the will of the party.
lor this point wo have striven. Unity
is strength. Foreseeing, perhaps sooner
ihun our neighbor, that as inevitable which
he could not recognize till accdfciplislied,
we did our endeavor to prepare the public
mind for Baltimore’s action.
Uflity is ours at home. If the' Democrat
will deal blowsmpon the enemy with such
vigor and thaPlie will we doubt not—we
have another good omen, that South-west
Georgia will present a clean record in No
v ember next. Our hand, Brother Russell.
To County Aspirants.
Read the proceedings of the County Con-,
xention of the loth ijist. See the mode,
appointed by the party, for ascertaining
"whether you are to be or not to be a can
didate. Don't put ofliand when too liite,
s.n that you did not have a fair showing—
and then try to bolt—and talk about run
ning independently.
It is right to learn from ones enemy.—
The Radicals .dare not jjolt. With them
bolting is treason. The action of the De
mocracy on 13th indicates that on that
point, at least, they agree. The Democra
cy have said that bolting will not pay.
Read and remember.
MR. JOHN H. JAMES.
Ihe overwhelming defeat this gentleman
has sustained in his own county in a popu
lar contest with Gov. Smith, authorizes the
belief that he will not be a candidate before
tlie Convention or people for Governor.
In anticipation of the Telegraph, there
fore, we announce that Jeems is convales
cent, symptoms of sanity have appeared and
we confidently believe the cure is so radi
cal that the case will resist even the influ
ences of the next Gubernatorial moon two
years hence.
Death of Hon. Linton Stephens.
The death of this great and good man
has cast a shadow of gloom over this coun
ty where he was known so well, and where
hit. talents have been used to such a great
advantage. Ilia death occurred at his
home, in Sparta, Ga., on Sunday evening
last. The State eould ill afford to lose
such a man at this particular time,
*—■ " ,0 ,
Hon. B. F. Bruton.
By reference to our “ Announcements ”
•it will be seen that this gentleman announ
ces himself a candidate for re-election.
We suppose we will hear from him mom
explicitly on his return from Atlanta, or
perhaps by letter, should the session be
protracted.
A WORD TO DECATUIt REPUBLI
• CAN S.
We claim no right to advise you. But
it is our right and duty, to keep before the
public a record of current events. You
have been repeatedly informed that your
party, under the leadership of
man was perverting the government from
a Republic, guaranteeing equal protection
to all, into a despotism where the one man
power will be the supreme law. .
The Convention at Cincinnati _ which
nominated Greeley, a life long Repub
lican and enemy of Democracy, filet
only for the purpose of .preserving the Re
public ;of checking the tendencyAo despo
tism and of restoring hofiesty to the ad
ministration of the government. Remem
ber, that the Convention was composed
ah ne of Republicans—of men who had
voted to put Grant in power, but who had
become alarmed for the welfare of the
country. Remember, that their only object
was to reform the government and brifig it
back to what it was before the war, except
as to the abolition of slavery and the laws
necessarily based on that fact; to restore a
practical, lasting peace to all sections and
all races, and put an end forever to all the
strifes and* bickerings between sections and
races, generated by Grant and his carpet
baggers, -first to put themselves in office
and afterwards to keep them there. Re
member, that those who thus left Grant and
his office-holders were those who had been
Republicans before Grant became one to
get the Presidency, and were of the best,
purest and ablest of the party— such men
as Trumbull, Carl Sehiirz, Fenton, Gree
ley, David and Gideon Wells, and hundi’eds
of others who the Republican party hon
ored and loved.
This Convention nominated'; Greeley, a
friend of peace, of universal amnesty, and
who wishes to preserve the Republic, work
i the government honestly and defeat the ten
dencies to despotism of Grant and his office
holders, who now give tone to the late
Republican party.
If, now, youjwull remember that the Dem
ocratic party, South and North have lately
agreed in solemn Convention to adopt
Greeley as their candidate and run no op
pasition to him, you will see how imminent
they regard the danger df despotism and
what Reeling, of prejudice and
of devotion to party friends they are will
ing to make, to bring the government back
to itself—to scourge the money changers
from the Temple of Liberty and .to secure
equal protection to all.
These thoughts"*are suggested as proper
at this time, because on the 24th of this"
month Qu meeting o£„ Geoma*
Georgia, for the purpose of consultation.
This meeting is called by Col. Thomas P.
Saffold, of Madison, who from the days of
reconstruction has been a light among you.
We, like other Democrats, will observe
with interest whether this county is repre
sented. If it is, we will think the’sacrifices
we have made for peace and concord are
appreciated. If not, we leave it to yoilr
selves to determine, whether we have not
the right to say, that-you love party more
than country, that you blindly worship a
man—Grant, rather tlyp love principles
guaranteeing equal protection to all and
honesty in managing the people’s mqney.
By your conduct, now, you will be judged
whether you really desire peace and friend
ship between sections and rac£s, or are
willing to keep up strife and war, rather
than abandon a‘mere man and he not a
Republican till office was offered him.
In conclusion, we give you the opinion
Charles Sumner entertains of Greeley
and of the issues involved in his candidacy.
You never doubted Sumner’s Republican
ism. How has hg changed? If once he
commanded your esteem and love hew and
why has he forfeited them. Follow him
now, as you have followed him in the past.
Show that you can do your own thinking
and thus show that you are worthy of the
high privilege of voting. Hear Mr. Suia
ner :
The Cincinnati Commercial, in reference to
that interview with Sumner in which he stated
that although he had a very high opiuion of
Greeley and sympathized with the Liberal move
ment, the time had not come for him to speak ont
and no man was authorized t<*speak for him, said
that his house was thronged with Baltimore dele
gates on their way home—a large majority of
them from the Southern States, who represented
that through the manipvl'atkms of the carpet-ba*-
gers, the negroes of the South had been prejudiced
against the Democratic party aud would not even
support so true a friend of their race as Horace
Greeley because he was nominated by that par
ty* *
Mr. Sumner said they must inspire confidence
in the colored people; to which the members of the
delegation replied that they desired to do so. but it
eotild be done most effectually by the Senator
from Massachusetts. The colofed people bad such
confidence in Mr. Sumner that they would do as
he advised. To this Mr. Sumner replied, that his
greatest, ambition was to see the country once more
at peace and'all its people reconciled. He wanted
notsonly the North and the South reconciled, but
the whites and the blacks. If this could be ac
complished by the election of Mr. Greeley, it
would be.in his judgment,the greatest movement
siijce the was. If he was called upon to give the
watch-woed of the campaign, he would say. “Re
conciliation.” He would nave it as the text ol
every speech on the hustings. If the people of
the United States. North its well as South, could
only get to- understand that the election of Mr.
Greeley means r-conciliation of the North and
South, of the whites and blacks, they would give'
him a support such as no other candidate for tlie
Presidency has ever received.
Speaking for himself he believed Greeley Belec
tion would go far to promote reconciliation, and to
secure peace to the whole country. Mr. Greeley
wa> naturally a man of peace, and in the execution
of the laws he believed he would endeavor to pro
mote peace and rtconciiiation.
A delegate asked Mr. Sumner iyhat he thought
of Greeley s ehauces of election, to which the
Senator replied that, from all the evidence before
him. and he had Been at some pains to get to the
bottom 6f the matter, he thought GreeL-ys chan
ce very good. He had no faith in the assertion
that the rank Tind file of the Democracy would re
fuse to support Greeley. He had recently been
assured by a distinguished Democratic Senator—
Thurman, of O..—that the ranks of the Democracy
would cldse up solid behind Mr. Greeley.
THE SAVANNAH NEWS.
In comifion with thousands of the read
ers of this able journal, we deplore the course
it has seen proper to pursue since the ad
j yurnment of the Baltimore Convention.
While we accord honesty of conviction to
it, as we claim the same for ourselves, we
must be permitted to dissent from the
course* whicl* this journal now pursues.
The party has spoken by authority; its
will has been made manifest and the News,
having been a constituent part of the Con
vention is bound, by every party tradition
and party usage, as well as by the ethics
underlying and forming an inherent ele
ment of all representative bodies, to adhere
to that action and obey that voice. If the
News can justify opposition to the decree
of Baltimore, because its wishes were over
ruled, what becomes of the coherence of
party ? Where is the binding efficacy of
its decrees ? And why may not every dis
appointed aspirant for its recognition and
endorsement justify factions opposition as
well.
The News justifies its opposition because
it will not endorse the ninth Cincinnati
resolution—as follows :
Resolved, That we remember with gratitude
the heroism and sacrifice of the soldiers and sail
ors of the Republic, and no act of ours shall eVer
detract from their justly earned fame or the full
reward of their patriotism.’'
In all candor, why does the News stickle
at this vote of thanks “ to the soldiers and
sailors of the Republic,”—the resolution not
mentioning Whether these “soldiers and
sailors of the Republic ” wore the grey or
the blue, —wheil it is'patent to the \vorld,
that the News, together with every Bemo
ciat in the South who voted for Seymour
and Blair in 1868, voted for caadidates upon
a platform of which tlre,following is a plank :
Resolved, That the highest meed of patriotism
is due and should ever be exteuded to all those
who in the recent war periled life or fortune for
the maintenance of the Union and the beneficent
system of American government thereby establised,
upon the fundamental principles'ser forth in the
foregoing resolution.
Jf the-News could in 1868 vote for Sey
irfbur and' Blair upon this resolution, why,
we again ask, stickle at a sentiment, less ob
jectionable and less pointed in 1872. The
News is usually more logical and consist
ent. We sincerely hope, that it is not now
actuated alone by prejudioe and feeling.
• The News continues to pour hot shot, by
its anti-Greeley extracts into the ranks of
ing the remark, that we would deplore his
defection from a nomination, to which he is
committed by the action of Baltimore and
by all the proprieties and usages of such
conventions, we suggest, that if he cannot
aid to press forward with liis party and
compatriots to victory, that he fit least pre
serve an armed neutrality. The News
owes this milch to the expressed voice of
the party—to the overwhelming pressure
upon Baltimore, —by the people there
represented, upon the politicians of which,'
in part, it may have been composed. The
News owes this to the Democratic convic
tion, that every road that leads from Gree-.
ley leads to Grant—and to the great, un
derlying fact, that whether or not Greeley
and Cincinnati were the choice of the party,
it is now the only door of escape from cen
tralized despotism and gangrened corrup
tion into the sunlight of State independ
ence and honesty and economy in the ad
ministration of government.
We bommend to the imitation of our’es
teemed contemporary the manly and sensi
ble course of the Mobile Register or, even
the N. Y. W6rld, is, to our apprehension, less
factious and dangerous.
[From our Special Correspondent;
Letter from Atlanta.
Deak Sun :
While rambling around our flourishing
Capitol, one is naturally impressed with
the great order of change and progress
that marks the age. Where, but a short
while ago, stood shanties or indifferent
structures, are seen large and magnificent
buildings, rearing their lofty fronts five and
six stories high,
Nor is'it in this alone the change ap
pears. The State House, so recently oc
cupied by political plunderers, adventurers
and thieves, is now controlled by an hon
est Executive and worthy subordinates.
What a change I One yoar ago, the Capi
tol of a great State was the favorite resort
of carpetbaggers and scallawags, lying
around like vultures to prey upon the pub”
lie crib. Each applicant for office had to
be backed by a role of dishonor, and in
many instances villainy. Not so to-day.
The best men, “to the manor born. ” are
rapidly filling the various offices of trust
and honor. As chaff before the wind the
Bullockites are giving way before the press
of honest men and an honest public opin
ion. The names of such men as Charles J.
Jenkins, Lucius H. Featherstone and oth
ers of Georgia’s best citizens, are now
being presented at the Capitol for appoint
ment to our judiciary and other posts of
trust and honor. This spfcaks Well for the
system of reform and redemption, inaugu
rated by the Democratic party on the flight
of the “ late lamented, ” and even the Re -
publicans, 1 meau the more honest ones,
are beginning to feel the happy change and
admit it. • **.
In 1867, Charles J. JenkinsVas removed
from the Executive chair, because he daVed
do right, and Judge Featherston and oth
ers from the bench, because they dared
enforce obedience to the tows of the land.
Not only were they deposed, but «tr»c.*d
These faithful servants of the people, in the
dav. of their sorest trials, should now be
oritefullv remembered by a generous peo
ple and their lionestDovernor, who is him
self one of that honored <=>*»’ AMBLER
