Heading matter on wry p«gr „jsEl Atlanta Was full of delegates and visitors to tlio Democratic Convention on the 16th. That Body was organ ized' bn yesterday. ' • - 2jgr“ Our friends of tho Cuthbert Appeal have our sympathy in the loss of their office. It was always a wel come visiter, and we know its weekly visits will be 6adly missed from many firesides in this section. Preparations are being made however, whereby its publication will be resumod in a short time. The Calhoun Times is tho title of a jrtipor issued at Calhoun, Georgia, bv onr friend Elam Christian. It will compare favorably with any of our Georgia Weeklies in appearance, and is filled with interesting matter. Success attend the ontorpriso. We sec from our Atlanta exchanges that tho Agricultural Convention was to hnvo boon organized as follows on the ICtli: The convention will be called to or der in DeGive’s Opera House, by the President, at precisely ten o’clock to day. 2. Scats for the Vice President, Executive Committe, and life members, and the Mayor and Council will bo provided on tho rostrum 3. Prayer by Dr. Harrison. 4. The roll of delegates to the con vention, and of members of the society will be called and revised, and when corrected, the names of regular mem bers of the convention will ho enrolled, and the convention deelnrod organized and ready for business. Nothing startling fr m the Agency at Atlanta. In tho House on the 16th a motion to purchase tho Op era Houso was tabled. The Telo grnph & Messenger says of the pro ceedings on Monday last : In the House, an effort was made to terminate the session under that provi i>n of the Constitution which limits all sessions of tho Legislature, after the first two, to forty (lays, un less extended by a vote of two thirds of the Legislatute. Speaker Mc- Whorter declared that this was the third session of tho Legislature and must terminate to-day. This ruling was sustained by O’Neal, Sinmis ami others 0 Neal declared that there could be no appeal on this point as the Speaker’s decision made it res ad judieata. Tweedy appealed and tho vote stood lor sustaining tho decision and the chair—yeas 50—nays 77. < > Neal said the vote was to prolong the session notwithstanding the Con stitution required two thirds. Mr. Anderson moved to extend tho session to the I2th of September, and pond ing the session the House adjourned. The Fall Elections. Various are tho opinions already expressed in regard to the policy to be pursued in conducting the campaign which is to precede tho election this fall. Ono thing is evident, that to cope with our antagonists, we must bo alive to cur interests, and not barter our political salvation by going to sleep on post and allowing our enemies to come within our linos and gather tho material with which to crush us To use an old war phrase, wo must “not let th* owls catch our pickets.” Our interests can he vigilantly guarded, aud working systems be organized without any violation of the Act to on force the XVth amendment. The op posite party are governed by such or ganizations, why not we ? Howover, the time has not yet come for us to strike ourjsymbol; we await the ac tion of our Convention, and trust the Wisdom of that body will be equal to the great task before them of making preparations to defeat the macinations of an artful enemy. That they are artful, we have but to refer to their proceedings prior to the recent elec tions in North Carolina and other States. Like schemes, we have no doubt will be tried in South Carolina, as Gov. Scott is already organizing and arming his militia, and we may expect the same or some similar plan in Georgia, by which they can effect to count a majority of ole ctoral votes. It has been asserted that Mr. Aker- ruau favors an election this fall, not through any good w ill for tho Demo cratic party, or that he desired to see the State relieved from Radical rule, but was shrewed enough to see that to debar us from that privilege would have a tendency to weaken the strength of that party in the North, and by the aid of their civil appointees, aud the negro militia, which probably may j be organized, to control the ballot boxes throughout the State, aud, as at their first electioa, to count thoir can didates elected, regardless of the votes cast; and thus keep the people of the Bcmrtr subject to the bidding of tbofte who now imagine this to ho a “proprietory GovernreorU ” There is a way of U'sewpe from this state of af fair* ; the moderate Kuf firm ninn- ner hi which the good people of our •country have -commenced tho rovolu 'tion, we are confident will he conduct ed to a final and fortunate issue for tho Democratic party, and reflect groat credit upon all cugagod in the enter prise. Wo trust that the organization ef fected at our convention will ho so complete, that tho foreign agents who now govern us may bo routed lrorn their position, and bo succeeded by those who will infuse new zeal into everything that pertains to national prosperity, and show to the world that the secret ofour not prospering in wealth and iucroaso of population, was ia consequence of the reign of tho wicked. North Carolina, Tennessee and Ken tucky, all havo tho ring of the truo metal as will bo seon from the result of tho recent elections, and we hope soon to hoar the voice of a unanimous people crying “what can I do for the good of my country ’; and trust that Googians may bo true to themselves. Communicated. J lr. Editor : I learn that suggestions as to who shall succeed lion. C. Ik Wooten in tho Senate of Georgia from this District havo already boon made. It is to bo hoped that our prosent able Senator will not decline a re-election, hut in the event lie should declino, tho County of Clay and not Randolph, is entitled to tho Senator; and in th i event that Maj. Wooten is not a can didate, we are willing to aid tho peo ple of Clay county in promoting to the Senate from this District their efficient and able Representative, tho lion. R. A. Tumipseod, a man who has always boon on fho right side at the right time, and whenever an important measure is up, is on hand with a vote for the right of our people. Terrell. (f'ommuuicut<-d.)

Tantuy Bogus. j lx Bourbon county, Kentucky, last week, died, Mrs. Katy Howard aged 80.

Seven ol them are yet living, the largest be ing John Howard, who is six feet ten inches high. Mrs. H. had twelve broth ers and sisters, all of whom were over six feet in height. miliaiy mi-in of I-mope. The war lietweon Franco and Ger many, suggests the vastness of tho ar mies that cun he culled into the field. Gen. Kumnier, a distinguished offi cer on the Prussian staff, has publish ed an important pamphlet relative to tho offoctivo military strength of tho leading Continental powers. From it we learn that Russia cun muster in a critical emergency 1,254,000 men, in cluding her war and peace establish ments. The latter will not probably number over 8;>0,000, but these could march at forty-eight hours notice.— Tho North German Confederation has a war force of 944,321 men, and with the contingencies which may be drawn from the South Gorman States, an army of 1,127,000 can bo produced. This is over three per cent, of the en tire population. North Germany is able to retain her garrisons, and yet put iuto the field at onco 552,000 active men. Tho remainder of Ger many, exclusive of Austria, can main tain its present gurrisom and furnish 107,500 inen for immediate use. Aus tria numbers 800,000 men on her rolls, and keeps 300,000 on a war footing. Italy shows 200,000 ; the Principali ties 100 000, and the Scandinavian powers about an equal force. France, all told, has 1,128,930 soldiers, and holds 647,000 always under arms. Germany and France, it will bo seen, are very nearly matched, with a slight balance in favor of tho former, so far as numerical strength is concerned. Ihc Liiic Elections. KENTUCKY. Kentucky has gone overwhelmingly democratic. Every country iu the State has given democratic majorities. The radicals with all their boasted discipline and thorough organization have been routed, demoralized and disgraced. Let eternal infamy rest upon them now and forever. NORTH CAROLINA. Tho old north State, ever tmo to the principle and instincts, which gov erned her peoples in the days of tho revolution, has gono overwhelmingly democratic. The conservatives have carried both Houses of tho legisla ture by decided majorities, while the third, fourth, fifth, sixth, and seventh Congressional districts, send conserva tive delegates to Congress, which makes the State stand five democrats to two republicans. Shipp, the conservative candidate for Attorney General, was elected.— This was a safo ship to sail in. TFNNESSEE. The Judicial election in tho city’ of Memphis, has gone democratic by over two thousand majority, and as Mem phis goes, so goes the State. —Albany N :ics. From the New york World Cuba l<> be Washington, August 11.—lam enabled to send you (lie following telegraphic dispatch, dated ■ a tlrid, the 7th inst.,-anil received in tlie'.scity from his government by the Spanish Minister: Madrid, August 7.—This government is determined on tho complete and immediate pacification of the Island of Cuba. It will send over 12,000 soldiers noxt September; so that, with the troops now in the island, and other powerful moans, to be employed at the discretion of tho Captain General, tho whole island will be givou up to mar tial ocupation. The government has done all in its power to conuince tho rebels that it was ready to liston to all just demends, anxious to act with strict regard to iastiee, and willing to assimilate Cuba to the rest of tho Spanish provinces. O ! tho sincerity of these wishes on the part of tho government the rebels have had froquent and very recent proofs in tho ordors and decrees pro mulgated by tho actual Captain Gen eral. It is, however, evident that tho in surrectionary party tends exclusively to the disruption of territory and the humiliation of Spain. The govern ment, therefore, which lias repeatedly offered forgiveness and oblivion to the rebels, is now firmly bent on crushing the rebelion, without any further con templated. De Nodus’ telegraphs from Havana that the European war has absorbed public attention, and the insurrection in this island is hardly spoken of.

Washington, August 1 I.—The for tifications nrond Paris are becoming immense and rapidly increasing The railroads approaching Paris cut, anil druwbridgos will be placed over the cuts to allow tho approach of friondiy trains London, August 14.—-The French are retreating. They have retired from Metz and Nancy, and tho Prus sians occupy tlie latter. Paris making efforts for defense on a colossal scale. No fighting yet. New York, August 14.—Twenty one surgeons, mostly Germans, have left this city for service in tho I‘rus sion urmy, since the opening of the war. They are receiving their ex penses out, and tho rank and pay of second Lieutenants on arrival. By Prussian orders the Foreign Secretary telegraphs that competent authorities at Berlin object decidedly against sur geons not speaking the German lan guage, and also that the army and hospitals havo nurses iu abundance. Paris, August 14.—The journal of ficiel contains tho following intelli gence, which it is authorized to give to tho public : At tho beginning ot the war with Prussia, the Emperor re ceived an address lrorn the principal chieltaius in Algeria, who asked that they might be permitted to march to light by tho side of our troops, aud open subscriptions for sufferers by the war. Tho Empress Regent lias commut ed aud reduced the sentences of 1641 convicts now confined in France and beyond the sea. The Imperial clem ency is applied especially to cases of uniform good conduct which havo giv en the prisoner claims to indulgence. One of the public journals still pre suinos to doubt that any real work is going on for the armament and de fense of Paris, allhough it may be an act of treason to speak thus in the face of the enemy. Buck insinuations imposo tho necessity of reply, notwith standing the danger of doing so. All the material necessary for the arma ment of Paris is ia Paris, and more than 600 cannon are already mounted on the walls of those forts which are likely to be first threatened, and tho work of placing other pieces iu posi tion continues withe at interruption day and night. Yesterday 75,000 workmen were engaged in cutting olf streets leading into Paris. This work has been completed, and nothing re mains but to close openings in the wall and place the drawbridges in po sition. Thousands of laborers aro oc cupied outside tlie walls on earth works, mines, ditches, etc., which arc to connect and complete the not work ol’ fortification around Paris. These facts are figures we are obliged to give, in order to reply to perfidious in sinuations aud to restore confidence of good citizens. London, August 14. —Advices from Metz state that the French army has boon withdrawn to the west bank of tho Mosollo McMahon is at Taul, 12 miles west of Nancy.

The Prussians have occupied Nancy, which had been evacuated by the French. Tho Prusian cavalry have destroyed a portion ot tho railroad between Frouard and Paris, cutting off sup plies and forage for the French troops sheltered under the glacis of Metz. Paris, August 14, noon—There is nothing new from tho headquarters of the army. Telegraphic communication was in terrupted yesterday between Paris and Nancy.

The Chamber must de cide between the safety of the State and the safety of the dynasty. Great agitation and noisy interruption— when people were excluded and after a stormy debate tho Chamber adjourn ed.

In the proceedings of the Corps Legislatif, Deputy Kello said tho troops had beeu fighting three days, I yet no details as to what had been ao complished. He could not think of any other matter.
