A nonvention of the Drtnoffnttc Par- |
ty will assemble in Atlanta on Wednea- ■
day, tho sixth day of December next,
at ten o’clock a. in., to nominate a can
didate for Govrnior. By dirciion of
tho State Democratic Excrativo Com
mittee.

THE «. 1 DISTRICT.
The call, hy tho Chairman of tho
State Democratic Executive Commit
jrav fi r a Convention to assemble at
Atlanta on tho 6th December, to nom
inate a candidate for Governor, makes
it your duty to hold meetings in your
several counties without delay, and ap
point delegates.
The rule is to appoint as many del
egates from each county as the county
1 us members in tho House of llepre
wntutives, and a like number of alter
nates.
It is important that every county in
*tliis part of the State shall ho repre
sented, as it is quite certain that other
sections will not fail to swell their
strength to it* utmost, in order to se
cure the nomination of local favorite.
While there should bo no sectional
spirit or local prednjieos in the Con
vention, it is well known that the
scramble for place is a power that can
only bo Mtcces&fully rebuked by the
constant vigilince nnd united action of
the people. Combinations and rings
exist in politics as w ell us in other de
partments, and if permitted to play
their game, nine ti nes < ut of ten the
will of the majority is thwaited and
unworthy men selected.
It is exceedingly desirable that you !
fed delegates trosh from home. Your !
Ivepresentatives in the legislature may i
1 e good men aud true, but in this in !
stance they are not the proper poisons
to send to the Convention. They have
been, for four weeks, in the busy cir- j
oleos office seekers at Atlanta, and it
is scarcely |>o*-ible that they could go ;
into the Convention untrammeled by
influences that ought to bo excluded.
However true to your interests and the
t fate’s, they are but human, and can
not bo free from the influences that
surround them.
Your section has heretofore indulg
ed no immodest hankering after ofliec.
and it is not supposed that your good
•’nine, in that regard, will not suffer
detriment; but you owe it to yourselves
to select delegates who will be prepar
ed to vote for the best man before the
Convention, regardless of h : s locality,
nnd independent of trading combina
tion v and wire-pulling politicians. The
times demand earnest, honest, able
men in office, and to you, in part, i«
committed tho charge if seeing t’mt
mch a one is nominated for Governor.
Georgia appeals to you, aud she lias a
light to expect you to clo your duty.
As this circular is written aftor con
sultation with and by the advice of
a number of leading Democrats and
several members of the Committee, the
I’regs of the District, aud the Telegraph
and I[ettenger, are requested to copy.
Respectfully your oh’t seiv’t,

County Convention.
Pursuant to the above call from both
the Chairman of tho State Democratic
Executive Committee, and Chairman
of the 21 Congressional District, a

House at 11 o'clock on Saturday, tho

egate to represent Terrell county in

Nut having space for ull the docu- j
meats in regard to the election, and j
having published on the first page the j
veto message of acting Gov Conley in 1
regard to the sj»eeiul Election Bill sub- |
mitted to him tor bis signature, wo '
give tlm follow ing synopsis of that bill ,
from the Atlanta Sun in which i6 con
tained all its main features :
The bill whit h lias become a law in
spite of Judge Conley's veto, provides
that a special election for Governor
shalHho held throughout the State on
tl.o third Tuesday in December next,
| to till tho unexpired teim ot Rufus B.
j Bullock. It provides that the returns
I shall bo sealed up by the malingers
i and directed to the President cf the
j Senate and Speaker of tno House of
; Representations, “and transmitted to
\ the person exercising tho duties of
Governor for tho time being, who shall
without opening said returns, cause
the same to bo laid before the Seuite,
if the Senato be in session when re
ceived, and if received’’ during the re
cess, then soon as the General Assem
bly con vein-s.
The Senate is required, forthwith,
to transmit said returns to tho House
of Representatives. The two Houses,
also, nro required to convene in the
Representative Chamber, open tho re
turns, count aud publish tho vote, and
declaro the “result of said election, ns
provided by article 4, section 1, para
graph 3, of tho Constitution,” and the
, Governrr thus chosen shall bo inau
gurated the next day thereafter at 12
o’clock, in.
We give this synopsis that our rea
ders may fully appreciate the very un
tenable points niado by the Acting
Governor in his veto message.—Atlan
ta Sun.
j The Atlanta Era denounces the pas- j
I sage of the election bill over Conley’s
' veto us “another rebellion” and inti- !
mates that Federal interference is nec
! cssary to keep tho Democrats subuiU
i sivo.
The Constitutionalist thinks there is ,
! a peaceful, convenient mode of settling j
the question of who shall bo Governor j
as between Conley and the Democrat !
w ho will be elected on tho 19th of De
cember. It says:
It is by quo warranto, to be tried by
the J udge of tho Superior Court of
Fulton county, to bo issued at the in
stance of the Governor to be elected at
the special election ordered, and to be
served on Governor Conley. This will
be a writ calling ou him to show by
what authority he continues to exer
cise Executive functions after his suc
cessor has been elected, and demands
to be inuagurated.

motion of Mr. Hudson, tho report of
the Committee on Privologes and
Elections declaring that L. C. Jones is
not a citizen of Macon county, and
recommending that his seat as a mem
ber from said county be declared va
cant—was taken up. Tho evidence
introduced before the committee was
read.
The report of tho committee was
adopted.
On motion of Mr. Hoge, the rules
were susticnded, and n Senuto bill to
repeal the 20th section of the appro
priation act of 1870, was read on
the third time, and passed
Ou nunion of Air. Simmons, of
Gwinnett, the Senate bill, in relation to
public printing, was read tho third
time, and passed.
The special order of to-day was ta
ken up. It is the resolution offered!
by Mr. Bacon, declaring that where |
the credit of this State has been loaned ,
to railroad companies in violation of j
the constitution, whether hy issuing j
bonds of the State to said companies, ,
or by placing the State’s endorsements j
so issued, and made in violation of the
law, are without binding force upon
tlie Stat.', and should bo declared null
nnd void.
Air. Scott moved to refer the resolu
tion to tho Judiciary Committee, with ,
instructions to report a suitable bill'
on tho subject at an ►'ally day
Mr. Cumming said no reference was
necessary ; the question was too plain
to require it. Besides, if action is
promptly taken, no one but guilty par
ties and sharpers will be hurt. Iho
adoption of the re»olution will put
parties upon notice that bonds issued
in violation of plain law will not be
held ns binding upon tho State.
Mr. Scott thought that it would not
be doubted that some railroad bonds
have been issued, aud this resolution
would throw a cloud over all bonds,
good as well as bad.
Mr. Rawls did not think there wns
any need to refer the matter, and said
lie was opposed to paying one cent of
bonds illegally issued ; at tho same
time he would favor all bonds legally
issued.
Air. AlcMillan said the resolution
was in exact conformity with the law
and Constitution, and should now be
adopted.
Mr. Jackson said tho resolution did
not look to repudiation because that
term would not apply to bonds illegally
or fraudulently issued —if the resolution
is adopted the whereabouts of these
bonds will be discovered. lie hoped
it would be adopted.
Air. Richards callod the previous
question. Call sustained.
Motion to commit was lost and tho
resolution agreed to.
Senate, November 28.—Tho unfin
ished business of yesterday was taken
up. It is :
A bill to provide for certain sales and
the right of reduction by the vendor,
and to fix the penalty for illegal acts
done in connection therewith, and the
substitute proposed by the Judiciary
Committee, to-wit: A bill to provide
for the sale of personal property to
secure loans and other debts, with tho
amendment of Air. Nunnally, “Provi
ded the consent of the wife be first ob
tuined.” The bill provides for the ab
soluto sale of property as security for a
loan, the right of redemption being
reserved to the vendor, said property
to revert and become subject to the
claim of homestead only upon redemp
tion.
Mr. Lester offered an amendment
that the vendors’ right to the property
shall not be affected by any liens or
incumbrances on account of being ia
the hands of the vendee, but in liis
complying with the condition of pay
ment. Adopted.
Mr. Nunnally advocated the amend
ment. The wives must be protected.
Legislation had tended steadily in
that direction sinco the days ot tho
distinguished legislator from Augusta,
who well understood the importance
of tho matter. Wives would consent
it; all cases. The principle is recog
nized by the provision in the Constitu
tion for homestead, lie thought tho
bill ought not to pass, but if it muj
let the proviso be adopted.
The vote on tho amendment of Mr.
Nunnally stood, yeas 14, nays J 4.
Tho President vo'ed aye, so the
amendment wm adopted.
Tho substitute was adopted and tho
bill was passed by ayes 14, nays 12.

The Printing Telegraph.
Inventions are tho order of our day
and generation. One of the most val
uable and useful is the new Printing
Telegraph Instrument, now in opera
tion at the office of the Western Union
Company in this city, and to be intro
duced next week into the offices of our
most prominent commercial andfiran
cinl houses. This instrument is the
Edison Patent, owned by the Gold and
Stock Company of New York, which
lias bought up the patents of all per
fect instruments in this country. Tro
combination is simple, but the ingen
uous, securing reliability and uniform
ity in the transmission and delivery of
commercial and financial market re
ports from Liverpool and New York.
By means of a transmitter at the cen
tral office, every report is instantly de
livered into tho office of each subset i
ber, thus securing dispatch and uni
formity in distribution, which aro all
important to our cotton merchants.
Mr. W. H. Turner, Manager of tho
Western Uuion Telegraph Company,
has charge ot the introduction of thoso
instruments in Savannah. We under
stand that several o f our leading
houses have already made application
for the Printing Telegraph. It will
soon be found indispensible.
The Atlanta Sun says: Yesterday,
Dr. Angier received at the Treasury
tho bonds which Bullock had over is
sued to the Brunswick and Albany
Railroad. It seems that ho had turned
them over to Mr. Kimball, who had
hypothecated them. The party hold
ing them, no doubt, had a wholesome
fear of the wrath to come, and thus
voluntarily-deHrcTfd them to the State.

, Washington, Nov 20.—After the firs
day of January, p ices of notes lesa
than one-half have no value without
evidence of a larger portion being de
stroeyed. l’iees between one-half and
five-eights will be worth one-half; over
five eights will be worth the whole

On Sunday morning last, about 4
o’clock, the body of a young man,
named George Jordan, about 29 years
of age, wns found on the railroad just
below the depot and opposite the col
ored church in Newnan. The cow
catcher struck him on the head, nnd
one arm was broken. We learn that
physicians who were summoned, and
made examination, give it as their
opinion that ho was killed and placed
on the track as he had wounds on his
person not inflicted by the engine or
ears.
The Washington Patriot says ; “The
cause of the postage stamps, bearing
the portraits of Washington, Jefferson,
Jackson and others, curling and twist
[ ing in all kinds of shapes, is under
consideration by postoffiee officials, aud
I the conclusion has about boen reached
that those old follows cannot lie still
amid the corruption aud political ras
| caliry ttiat is going on all around them
around.”
The honor of being tho richest man
in tjie United States lies between Wm.
B. Astor, Cornelius Vanderbilt and A.
iT. Stewart. Probably neither of these
gentlemen can tell within ten millions
I of what ho is worth, and there is not
supposed to be so much difference be

i tho three.

plug tobacco ought to be knocked off
the trees with clubs instead of picked
by hand. This, tho Texas editor said
was nonsense, and Mr. Greeley clial
