CAPERS. -V •* D. A. VASON, *. F. A. TUGGLE. S. A. PEACOCK, B. T. HARRIS, H. T. STUBBS, Committee. Bight, my Hearty. Our Staid old friend, the Macon Tel egraph, is right this time, certain; but will he stick to it when the impracti cables get hold of him ? Let the People Insist Upon It.— We urge upon the people who will soon be holding their primary meetings to select delegates to the Congressional conventions, that they insist upon each delegate’s giving assurances that he will not vote for any candidate in the convention who is ineligible. That is the best plan to keep down all aspir ants of this class. Let them under stand; before the convention assembles, that they have no chance at all there, and that nothing can be gained by thnrsting their claims before it. This policy may possibly restrict the range of choice by the Convention to very narrow limits, but it will keep down all wranggling and scrambling, and give the people a candidate whose elec tion will bo worth something in prac tical results. We don’t know, nor do we care, who the Convention oan and will select. That is a secondary mat ter, altogether. We need not expect a combination of all the elements of genius, talent and experience ih the man chosen, limited as the choioe will be, but that the convention can and will find some man who has sound judgment, strong common sense, strict integrity and thorough knowledge of men ana practical business affairs, we do not doubt for a moment. Any man with any of these qualities, especially the two latter, who is eligible, is a mil lion times preferable to the best man in the district who is not. Let the county meetings, then, take care that their delegates are selected with this viow. To members of the Legislature, and such county officers as may be voted for in November, let the same test of eligibility be applied. As no man is ineligible for any of these State offices who is not barred by the operations of the Fourteenth Amendment, the range of choice will be a great deal wider than in the case of candidates for Con gress, and consequently a blunder in selection much more inexcusable. The Fourteenth Amendment prohibits any man—unless his disabilities have been removed by Congress--from holding any office, either State or Federal, who held office either State or Federal bo lore the war, and took an oath to sup port the Constitution the United States, and afterwards engaged in the so-call ed*rel>eUion. There is no test oath re quired in the case of these State offi eee, and therefore any man, no matter who he is, whoheld no office before the war, and took no oath to support the Constitution of the United States, and afterwards aided the Confederacy, is ineligible for the Legislature or any State office. As there are tbourends of good men who are not barred by this 14th Awttulnmnt tlm oannot be any difficulty In getting the best qual ity 9 1 aaadidatee for the Legislature. •ffiu The people of Denver, Colora do, talk of forming a vigilance commit tee to rid theraielree of thieves and m« aywifr The Past la Past; Let us watch the Present and the Future. B®*“Prtsßia.” is now a constitution al monarchy, hereditary ’’in the male lino of the house of Hohenzollern. — The constitution, which is derived from grant by King Frederick William IV.. brother of tie present sovereign, mod ified by subsequent grants, and has on ly beenjn existence since in 1848, vests executive and port of the legisla tive authority in the King. In the ex eeutive branch he m assisted by acoun cil of minister?; appointed by himself. The legislative bodies consists of the “Herrcnhause,” which is the Upper Chamber, and is composed of the prin ces of the royal family; sixteen “me diatized” friends; the heads of the ter ritorial nobility; eightlife peers; eight titled noblemen elected by the resident land-owners iq the eight provinces, representatives of the Universities; the heads of "chapters;” the mayors of towns having tnorrthan 50,000 rahab itants, and persons nominated at tiu pleasure of the King. The second ohamber is composed of 432 members, chosen for three years by general but not universal suffrage. Every Prussian subject is enrolled in tbs army upon reaching the age ol twenty, and serves three years in the reserves three years in the regular ar my, four in the reserves, and nifio in the "Lahdwehr,” or militia. Even at tho age of fifty he is not exempt from military duty, but is thon enrolled in the “Landaturm," or “home guard.” On a peace footing, a Prussian regi rnent consists of three batallions, num bering 618 each; in war, the batalliont are increased to 1,002 each. “Prussia proper contains 24,043,290 inhabitants; the North German Con federation, including Prussia, 26,610,- 377; the population of the South Ger man States is 8,611,622, making a to tal population of all tho contries undei the military leadership of King Wil liam, 38,521,600. That of France is 38,192,094. —N. Y. Journal of Com merce. Busing Cotton to Akkivk. —The fol lowing resolutions have been unani mously passed by the Manchester Cot ton Association: That, in the opinion of this meeting, the system of “buying to arrive,” upon which the Col ton Spinners’ Associa tion have been requested by the Liv erpool Cotton Brokers’ Association to express an opinion, is a system thor onghly unsound and opposed to tin true principle of legitimate trading.— The system tends to induce trader, with small means or with no means to ohtor upon great transactions, which only should bo undertaken by those who possess ample capital. It. leads to eudless disputes between buyer and seller, and it fosters a method of trad ing po reckless !iw to deserve Uu. , of gambling. Iu the further opinion of this meeting, this pernicious system could not have attained its present widespread operation if the Cotton Brokers’ Association had not made special provisions in their rules for reg ulating a method of trading which they ought to have been the first to utterly ignore. Any disputes arising among a body of gamblers ought to bo driven for adjudication to the courts of law. This ineetimr. therefore, re spectfully urges the Cotton Brokers’ Association at once to abrogate all rules bearing upon the system of “buy ing to arrive,” and to refuse in future to recognize any disputes springing out of it. In passing this condemnation upon the system of “buying to arrive,” this meeting carefully guards itself against including such transactions as buying and selling cotton from actual samples and alrendy on shipboard, and where bill of lading is produced and the marks and number of bales given.— Liverpool Journal. Takimo the Chances.—How wo hu mans delight in “taking the chances" was well illustrated during the draw ing of the lottery at the festival of the Clerks’ Benevolent Association, at the Fair Grounds on the Fourth. We were on the lower floor of the octago nal building, and the select and nu merous crowd who had just been dancing were scattered m groups around, while the drawing went for ward up stairs, the gentlemen who had volunteered to superintend it calling first the number and then the prize.— ‘ghat’s my number.” "Another pair of sleeve buttons.” “I wish that had been mine.” “When’s tho sowing ma chine coming,” and the like exclama tions, were indulged in as the drawing progressed. Near us a bevy of laugh ing beauties were gayly chatting when the number 2,893 was called. “Ah! that’s my number,” exclaimed one of them, a dark-eyed Creole belle, and all waited in breathless expectation to hear the prize. “Half a dozen Walsbo’s shirts.” “There Angelina ?” “They are sure to fit, coming from chemi settes.” “You’ll look well in them.” And a dozen other mirthful remarks were made-to her, but she enjoyed the odd award re muoe as any of them. We noticed afterwards, that she had many a new partner for each danro, but whether the gentleman had heard of her good fortune, and consid ered Walshe’s shirts an additional charm we would not pretend to say.
