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. Curvokn Andkkson, Chairman. TO Till: Dcnnt R vTif voters or 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, Cart W. Stti.es, Chrn’n Dom. Executive Com., id District. Albany, Ga., Nov. 23d, 1871. 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 meeting will be held ut the Court House at 11 o'clock on Saturday, tho 2d for tho purpose of choosiug a del egate to represent Terrell county in tho nominating Conventii n to bo held nt Atlanta on Wednesday next.

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.

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.

Bill to change the line between Clay and Calhoun counties. Passed. 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. Ciciicral Sow* Item*.

The Lexington Gazette says that the chapel of Washington and Lee Uni versity will soon receive a largo and costly organ, now being constructed in New York, as an offering to the mem ory of General Lee, from certain la dies of Texas. , 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 face of tho note. 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 ; tween them. Sixty millions is a medi ! um estimate of tho wealth of eithor of i tho three. It is repo,ted that Horace Greeley got into a muss with a Texas editor. It appears that in an agricultural es -1 say on tobacco, Air. Greeley asserts ] that fine cut will not ripen well unless the tin foil is stripped from the grow ing buds early in the spring, and that 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 ! lenged him. JTE Pl* .»« I 'EIITISE.TIF.~YTS 13. .r. Luiv QUEST. MCH A MAKER AX I) JEWELER. nAVIVG locked at J.
