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.

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.

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.

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.
