The Star is the official organ of Spalding, Fayette, Butts and Henry counties. for state Democratic Convention. Atlanta, Ga., Jane 26,1872. At a meeting of the Executive Com mittee of the State, held this day, it was resolved, that a Convention of the Democratic party be held in the city of Atlanta, on Wednesday, the 24th day of July next, at 12 o’clock n., in the Capitol building, in Atlanta, for the purpose of nominating an Electo ral Ticket, and a candidate for Gover nor. Counties will be entitled to the usual representation. JuUAM HaBTRIDOE. Chairman. Carey Styles.— This distinguished gentleman was in town last week. He visited Fitch’s Springs and pronounoed the “mineral” waters most excellent and wholesome. The Savannah News hoists at ite masthead tho name of James M. Smith, os its candidate for Governor of Georgia, at the next election. MuHon. Charles J. Jenkins declines to be a candidate for Governor of Geor gia at the November election. Gkant and Greeley.— Now that the matter is settled that Greeley and Grant will lead the two contending political armies to battle, we hope that in Georgia wo Bhall have peace and tolerance of opinion between what are called the Greeloyitcs and anti-Gree ley Democrats. We soe no occasion for any display of undue temper and feeling on this occasion. Os coarse Democrats can’t vote for Grant, and thero will be enough that will vote for Greeley to carry the electoral vote of the State for him. Mr. Greeley could scarce expect any general enthusiasm in his behalf. Georgia merely tolerates him, but she don’t nor never will love him. Wo hope that both wings of tho Democratic party will harmonize and fraternize like a band of brothers and keep everything “snug up” in our State elections. Let us beware of JMttM£»cAndidateß for State, county and Congressional offices. Lot us man age tho home affairs wisely, prudently nnd in a spirit of kindness and conces sion. The Presidential business con now pretty well take caro of itself in Georgia. A Lccky Venture. —Years ago when Bob Toombs was a young lawyer, bo was invited to go in with several other parties in a speculation in wild West ern lands. Ho put in $5,000 and got 100,000 acres of land, which is at tho rate of five cents por acre. The war ended, and Bob Toombs returned to his ancestral acres in Wilkes to find his large force of slaves sot free, and himself an outlaw of tho governmont, with shattered fortunes; with spirits crushed and health impairod. Believ ing himßelf personally unsafe, he went to Europe, whore ho remained until he could safely return to Georgia. Re turning to die upon his native heath, he expected confiscation and poverty. But fortune smiled on him. The Wes tern lands came into market, and his income now from the proceeds of that purchase is said to be about $25,000 per annum. Tho old Wilkes home stead is still his own. He gets as much law practice as he can attend to at his own price. His health has much improved; and under all these circum stances, wo should say Uncle Bobuel was decidedly comfortable, and we are glad of it. Fulton Superior Court. —After a protracted session of many weeks, this Court adjonrned on Thursday last un til the 26th of August An immense amount of business has been done and a huge docket is yet to be disposed of. Judge Hopkins sentence of O’Neal for murder, was most solemn and impress ive. He is to be hung August ICth, unless his case is carried to the Su preme Court, which is probable. A vast amount of criminal business has been done. Judge Hopkins in taking leave of the Grand Jury, pays a hand some compliment to the new Solicitor General, Capt Tommy Glenn. Beau Cheek. —We mado a hasty vis it to this thriving little |own on Satur day last The first thing that attract ed oar attention after getting off the cars, was our friend McMahon run ning at* us with a half grown cotton boll, whioh he bad just pulled from his brag patch. Next we noticed that quite a cumber of new buildings had been erected daring the year, and that several others wore being built. In fact, everything looked lively, and tho merchants and everybody else seemed to be having a good time. They say that in all probability Charlie Stark's sewing machine man is in that neigh borhood, Lowery-ing about, trying to find Charlie's wife, to sell that machine. uMRn rancm ahul ica,” addreeaed a large audience at De- Give’s Opart House in Atlanta on Fri day night last From some cause the tore, but we hear from one who heard it that it waa one of tha strangest and most wonderful affairs conceivable.— The boose was peeked foil at fifty cents per head. Mr Train spoke on almost every conceivable subject; rela ted a vast amount of bis own experi ence; stated among other things that be had crossed the Atlantic forty times, and had traveled entirely round the world. Had been put in prison and mobbed in half a dozen countries. Had made and spent money by millions, and would certainly be the "next Pres ident of America.” He pitched into and tore in fragments Grant, Greeley and the Democratic party, declaring that the Train party was the only par ty that will "do to tie to.” He fre freqnently took the vote of the house on the Presidential question, and always carried the entiro audience for Train. At the conclusion of his speech, he in vited the audience to keep their seats until he reached the door, when he would give them all an opportunity to disks the hand of the next President of America. This wonderful man is abont 46 or 60 years of age; in perfect health; of spotless morals, and hand some person. Some people believe him to crazy; but all know him to be one of the most remarkable of men. For Governor. Horn John H. James, mayor of At lanta announces himself candidate for Governor of Georgia, in tbo following card. We don’t exactly understand from the cord whether he proposes to lay his claims before the Convention or "go it alone:” Atlanta, Ga., 29th Jane, 1872. 7b the People of Georgia: — For months past, I have been solici ted personally and by letters, from friends in all portions of the State, to submit ray name os a candidate for Governor. Now, that the Execntive Committee bos called a Convention to meet in this city, on tho 24th day of the com ing month to nominate a candidate for Governor, I deem it a fit opportunity to answer those solicitations, audio an nounce that lam a candidate for the position. As n candidate, I do not feel called upon to discuss the present exciting issues, national politics. What Georgia needs, is a good, sound, and economical administration. Stripped of much of her material wealth by tho results of the war, and subsequently robbed of much that was left her, by the harpies that preyed upon her in tho hour* of her distress and helplessness, she now finds her self burdened with an immense debt, for the carrying of which her people are previously taxed. The people need relief, prompt, full and adequate to their great necessities, nnA it X W boßMtil with the position, I may say that all my energies will bo devoted to tho task of restoring tho credit, prosperity and honor of the noblo old Commonwealth. If the people shall think and decide that some other gentleman is better entitled to the high honors of her Chiof Magistrate, it will afford me a sincoro pleasure to promptly bow to tboir expressed wishes. John H. James. Westekn and Atlantic Railroad Cos., 1 President’s Office, 5- Atlanta, Ga., June 29,1872.) Dr. N. L. Arigicr, State Treasurer: Dear Sir: I send you by the Treas urer of this company $26,000, in cash, the rental due the State for tho present month of June, 1872.

Beware of Swindlers I —The Savan nah News has tbe following cautionary remarks, whioh may be of much ser vice, if heeded: “We would caution tbe readers of the News against an organized compa ny of swindlers who have their head quarters in New York, and have been for several months past distributing circulars all through tbe South, offer ing to arrange mortgages, advance mo ney, etc., on reasonable and satisfacto ry terms. They profess to control a very large capital, and pretend to re spectability. The usual formula is gone through with after some person os been induced to correspond with the liberal firm, in the hope of getting a small loan, and he is invited to for ward $lO as a fee “for registration,” when the amount desired will be im mediately sent. The money is mailed, and that is the last ever hoard of it— It is astonishing after the frequent ex posures that have been made of simi lar swindlers that are to be found in this section, men are cteduloas enough to entertain such propositions a mo ment; yet we learn that several per sons in this vicinity have been victim, izod by these “heathen Chinese,” and we make this mention in order that our readers may be on their guard." following appears as a lea ding editorial in the Cleveland Herald: “We wish to givo a very simple reme dy for fever and ague, and wish to em phasize it by saying that it, has to our knowledge, proved very efficacious. It is simply common salt A toaspoonful deposited inside each stocking, next to the foot, just as the ohill is coming on. That’s all tbereisof it; but know ing that it baa been very sffloaoious in 'breaking’ a chill and perfeotingacure, we put it in oar editorial columns, where no humbug remedy shall ever find a place, if we know it." , gwwwt Editors CknutiMim . The long session of Congress hav tives stands adjourned mart be a matter worthy of a passing notice, to briefly oatline in the formal a charcoal sketch, the Representatives of Georgia in the Congress of the V. States The senior Senator, Joshna Hill, of Madison, Morgan oonnty, whose term expires on the 4th of March, 1878, is a grave and dignified gentleman, of abont sixty summers. Although Mr. Hill was elected os a Republican, yet he seldom votes or acta With that par ty, bat almost in every instance, espe cially in the repression of harsh legis lation toward the good true people, he uniformly co-operated with the Demo crats. At this writing it is due to Mr. Hill to say .that we cannot call to mind in any instance where he hascaßta vote, since a Senator from Georgia, in imical to Southern interests, even from the stand-poiht of the most “unrecon structed.” His character for probity is withont blemish. The junior Senator, Hon. Thomas Morrow Norwood, of Savannah, Chat ham county, is young, modest and at tentive, and may yet develop resources and powers consonant with the wishes and expectations of bis most ardent friends and admirers. He is an in flexible Democrat, and a moat vigilant sentry of the rights and interests of Georgia. If he was more demonstra tive and aggressive, ho might, in the opinion of your correspondent, accom plish more for Georgia. Archibald Thompson Mclntyre, of Thomasville, Thomas county, born in Twiggs county, Ga., October 27,1822, represents tho First District, compos ed of twonty-niue counties only. It is a conceded fact that no peoplo or con stituency over had a representative more watchful and attentive. Tho files of the Globe will show that ho has rarely been absent at roll call du ring a continuous session of over five months. “Old Mae,” as his brother Democrats familiarly call him, is al ways on hand—late and early. He is recognized as a most worthy and ex cellent member, and his only faults be ing his conservative modesty andgood nature. His digestion being good, it is most difficult to make him angry. A little more experience wiil doubtless bring him to the proper temper. Richard Happy Whiteley, of Bain bridge, of the Second District, com posed of twenty oounties, was born in County Dover, Ireland, December 22, 1830; was a Major in the Confederate Army, and elected to Congress as a Republican. Although a Radical, Maj. Whiteley, to his credit be it said, has voted uniformly for amnesty, and against all Ku-Klux bills. Has not manifested nny disposition to contin ue the robberies and tyrannies pver the Southern people. He is nn excep tion to the so-called representative Radicals in Congress from the plun dered Sontb. John Summerliold Bigby, of New nan, Coweta county, of the Third Dis trict, bom February 13, 1832, was elected to Congress as a Republican. Judge Bigby is a very clover lawyer, a man of good habits, nutl a radical of the straightest sect. He votes, wo are sorry to aajL lorqll tho outrageous leg islation offered to oppress and enslave the Southern people. His vote on al most all political questions will bo found recorded side by side with Ben. Butler. How a native son of the South can thus act and affiliate, is indeed a political riddle. But in truth, it is about as creditable to vote with Ben. Butler as it would be to vote for Hor ace Greeley. If Greeley bailed Mr. Davis in 1867, Ben. Butler voted fifty seven times for him at the Charleston Convention in 1868. The diftorenco, therefore, between Greeley and Butler is about the same as thero is between . tweedledom and tweedledee. Thomas Jefferson Speer, of Barnes ville, Upson conuty, of the 4th Dis tricts, born in Monroe ooanty, Geor gia, August 31,1872, was elected to Congress as a republican, but in truth has but little sympathy with that par ty; and shows u disposition to protect and defend tho people of Georgia. He only votes with his party of party drill. Tom Speer is no enemy of Georgia, and all tho evil he perpetrates is from the bad company ne has gotten into. “Tho gentlemnu from the 4th District” may yet reform, rcant and become a good “loyal son” of his down-troddeu, inaligned and oppressed mother. We hope so, for he has many manly traits. General Dudloy Mclven Dußose, of the Fifth District, is a native of Shel by county, Tennessee; his paronts em igrating from Wilkes connty, Georgia. Gen. Dußose was borne October 28, 1834, and proved himself a worthy son of the Sonth by his distinguished gal lantry in tbo war for the rights, the liberties and independence of tho Southern people. He stood iu the Confederate army as he stands on the floor of the Honso of Representatives, like Sanl in the camp of Israol, a head and shoulders above any other peer. Elected to Congress as a hardshell Jeffersonian Democrat, over a large Radical majority. General Dußoso is universally pop ular with liis fellow members of the House, regardless of party or section. A bettor Democrat “never fluttered,” and a Representative more devoted to the welfare and interests of his con stituents Georgia never had. William Patrick Price, of Dahlone ga, Lumpkin county, of the Sixth or tho old Howell Cobb District, was born in Lumpkin, January 29, 1835. Mr. Price was a gallant soldier iu the war for Southern independence, and was oleoted to Congress as a Representa tive of tho “hard sheW’ Jackson Dem ocracy of the hill and mountain coun ties of Northeast Georgia. His ma- Sover all competitors was over ousond. Mr. Price is a quiet unobtrusive member, of excellent habits, and in all respects makes a most excellent repre sentative. He lias labored most ardu ously bat aacoessfnlly for tbo restora tion of mail facilities in his district; has also succeeded in getting Congress to donate the old mint building, at Dahlonega, for an Agricultural Col lege; has devoted muon time in per fecting a plan by whioh Congrosa will doubtless msko a sufficient appropria tion for the construction of tuo Great Western Osnal. lie bus labored also to procure legislation by which claims will be paid for carrying the mails and taking ana census before the war, ate.; the restoration of pensioners to the rolls; and, at Upyinrtanee of Gover ber of Commas is never more useful to his constituent, on the State than by giving eloee and constant attention attention to flottnlfi and Button appa rently of minor consideration. The rights and Interests of the people of the Sixth District are carefalfywatch ed and well gnarded by their present indefatigable Representative. General Pierce Mason Bntler Yonng, of Cartersville, Bartow county, of the indomitable Seventh District, was bom in Spartanbnrg District, South Carolina, in 1888. Was at West Point when he heard the slogan for Southern independence, and like a faithful and dutiful son, immediately returned to his native South that he might Strike her invaders and despoilers, and preserve her from the gripe of tyrants and plunderers. As a Confederate officer, ever faithful and true, till tho last banner was furled under the heel of the oppressor, Gen eral Young was the equal of his peers. A better Democrat and truer son of the South never sat in the halls of Congress. JEFFEBBON. The Campaign. A GENERAL HANDSHAKING in ILLINOIS. Springfield, 111., June 27.— The Democratic Convention has instructed the delegates to Baltimore to vote as a unit for Greeley and Brown. Tho Consultation Committee from the Lib eral Convention was received raptur ously, and had seats on the platform. The Liberal Convention had every county in the State represented. ' The Joint Committee agreed upon KoernerforGovemor, Charles Black for Lieutenant-Governor, and a full State ticket, composed as follows: Liberals Governor, Secretary of State, and At torney General; Democrats—Lieuten ant-Governor, Auditor, Treasurer, and Clerk of the Supreme Court. The Liberal Convention then march ed into tho Democratic Convention, amid tho wildest enthusiasm, where Palmer, President of the Liberal Con vention, heartily indorsed the nomina tions of the Joint Committee, and joined hands with the Democrats in their support Gov. Allen, President of the Demo cratic Convention, said he desired to meet tho advances of tho chairman of the Liberal Republican Convention, in the spirit in which they were made, and, like Paul forgetting the things that are behind, striko hands with him in tho common cause. As the Chairman of the two Conven tions advanced and clasped hands, an other scene of wild excitement ensued —tho delegates cheering frantically for several minutes. Tho selection of an electoral ticket was referred to the Central Committees and tho Conven tion adjourned. MISSISSIPPI democratic convention. Jackson, (Miss.) June27.—The Con servative Democratic Convention is largely attended Mauy of the best men in the State aro present Judge Watson, of Holly Springs, presided.— The list of. Vice Presidents included two colored men. Die resolutions in- to'Baltimore to vote as a unit for Greeley and Brown, but pledged tho Convention to abide tho decision at Baltimore. From a Democrat to a Radical— How to Turn Over.—Now is the op portunity of tbe soft, sqnash-headed Democratic politicians, who yearn for the crumbs from tho table of tho party in power, but havn’t moral courage to make a straight-out somersault, to make their jack. This is the way you go about it. Hate Greeley. Denounce him. You always detested the father of Radicalism. Couldn’t swallow that pill. Your digestive organß are too strongly tinctured with the Simon- Eure Democratic element, for it to bo ealthy. Can’t b ear to vote for the man who first agitated the waters that engulfed the South in poverty and ru in. No, never ! The fact is, that you •will be darned if yon hadn’t rather vote for Grant, the soldier to whom Gen. Leo surrendered his sword. Os tensibly in lien of the fact that the Baltimore Convention will probably in dorse Gre eleyi- and you think it will. Thus you break tbe ice, and if Balti more does not slide away in the groove made by Cincinnati, you can go ahead any way, having partly pledged to Grant, with greater ease than before; while if the Baltimore Convention does indorse the white hatted philosopher, you can fight it out ou that line by tu ning your harp to “Hail to the chief,” and joining tbe Philadelphia conclave in tbe chorus of “old John Brown’s soul is marching on.” It wouldn’t go at all again the grain of a Southern man —South Georgia Times. Important to Pensioners. —The fol lowing circular has been issued by the Acting Commissioner of Pensions: Persons who two already pensioned nnder act of Juno 6,1866, at either of the rates of fifteen, twenty, or twenty five dollars, are entitled by an net pass ed Juno 8,1872, to increased rates, and may secure Ruch increase without for mal application and without tho inter vention of nn attorney; nor an y attorneyship be recognized in such ca ses. A letter from the pensioner pen sioned as above, bis present pension certificate, and giving his post office address, will be sufficient claim for the increaso. The certificate will receive such indorsement by this office as will authorize tho payment of increased rate, and will then be forwarded to the pension agency at which tho pension is payable, and the pensioner will be notified of such transmission.
