FRRDAY AUGUST 27, I860.
—Pope Leo XIII Is quite unwell this
summer, partly because of the unusual
beat of the summer at Rome, and partly
because of bis labors on the Belgian en
cyclical.
—An English curaio happened recently
to preach on the wages of sin and make
some uncomplimentary references to the
prodigal son. A young scapegrace in the
congregation fancied that the sermon was
aimed at himself. He horse whipped the
curate the next day.
—Ex-Judge Richard Bustecd, formerly
of Alabama, but now a resident of New
York city, ha3 declared for Hancock. He
was an appointee of President Lincoln,
He announces his willingness to stump
the State in General Hancock’s interest.
—The New York Tribune asks whether
the Democrats of the South are support
ing Hancock because he fought them in
1861. No, sir; they support hint because
he stopped fighting them in 1865. The
Garfields, Blaines and Conklings of the
North will yet find out that it would have
been more politic, as well as more just
and magnanimous, if they had done like
wise.
—The New York Tribune thinks that
the wheat crop of the present year may be
safely set down at no less than from ISO-,
000,000 to 400,000,000 bushels, or from 50-,
000,000 to 40,000,000 bushels in excess of
the great crop in 1879. If this estimate
should prove correct there will remain
a surplus for export in excess of the re
serve held back for seed and consumption
Owen county, Indiana, is entitled to
the palm in possessing one of the oldest
Democratic “stand-bys,” in the person of
Mr.’Andrew Aniey. He voted for James
Madison for President, and for every
Democratic candidate for the same office
ever since. He expects to vote for Gen.
Hancock. He is ninety-two years old,
and walked over a mile to join a Hancock
dub, and wrote his name in a round, leg
ible hand, without glasses.
—Two large gold dishes have been
temporarily lent to the Science and Art
Museum, Dublin. The larger one, meas
uring two feet nine inches in diameter,
is said to be the wedding present of the
Dauphin of France to Mary Queen of
Scott. The smaller is two feet in diam
eter, and contains in the centre a repre
sentation oftlie Adoration of the Magi in
high relief.
ot about 200,000,000 bushels.
The South Carolina Census.—A
special to the Courier-Journal says:
Gen. Walker, superintendent of the cen
sus, says there is no truth in the state
ment a new enumeration will be taken
in South Carolina. Thus far not a solita
ry fact has been brought to the attention
of the census office to indicate that the
census in South Carolina was improperly
taken. Two of the three supervisors ap
pointed for that State are Republicans,
and it is in their districts where the largest
increases in population are reported.
Only a “Side Speculation.”—Mr.
Sam Ward, the noted lobbyist and confi
dential friend of Mr. James R. Keene, the
great speculator, says the losses of the
latter in his attempted wheat corner were
about $1,200,000. This was only a “side
speculation,” however, according to Mr.
Ward, and did not hurt Mr. Keene much,
as his profits last year, principally on rail
road stocks, are stated by the same au
thority to have amounted to nearly nine
millions of dollars. That’s the kind of
“useful citizens” we raise in this country
nowadays.
Gen. Butler for Hancock.—The
Boston Herald says: At the meeting of
the Democratic ward and city ccmmitr
tee Thursday evening it was officially an
nounced that General Butlef would, on
the 2$th of this month, address a mass
meeting in Faneuil hall, and declare his
intention to support General Hancock for
President. This is the first statement of
liis views that has been made, although
it was understood that lie would finally
stand on the national Democratic plat
form. It is not known whether he will
be a candidate for governor, but if he
does he will have the full support of all
wings of the party.
Intend to be on Hand.—The Athens
Stale (colored Republican) says : “There
will be a State convention held in Atlanta
on September 7th. It is important that
there be colored men in that convention.
If white Republicans can’t stomach their
presence, it is best that they have a meet
ing of their own; for it is certain we will
have colored men in it.” The white
“rads” have evidently lost their hold upon
their colored brethren of the party, because
they have ridden them down like the “old
man of the mountain.” The same paper
is not exactly prepared to say whether or
not a Republican candidate for governor
will be started, but calls upon his colored
associates to oppose Norwood on account
of alleged hostile utterances against their
race.
A Republican ClSb Votes to
Pabade fob Hancock.—A Washington
special to the World says the sixteenth
district Republican club of this city held
a meeting Thursday evening, at their
rooms, to determine whether or not to
join the procession to the Republican rati
fication meeting at City Hall two hours
later. About one hundred and fifty mem
bers were present, half of then were col
ored. A vote being taken, the result was
a tie, the colored members voting in a
body to join the procession and participate
in the meeting. The chairman then cast
a negative vote, which decided the matter.
A resolution that the association turn out
in fall at the Hancock ratification meet
ing next Thursday evening was carried
witbont a dissenting voice and amid great
enthnsiasm.
The Telegraph and Messenger
was requested to publish the proceedings
of a mass meeting held in Monroe county,
but the proceedings never reached us un
til yesterday. We would have gladly
complied with their wishes if the proceed
ings had been furnished in time. We re
ceived a postal card some days ago from
the secretary, referring us to the Barnes-
viMe Gazette. Tbs Gazette failed to
reach us.
The people of Dougherty county by
quite a handsome majority, voted on Ikst
Saturday to purchase Tiftis bridge across
the Flint river at Albany. It is a wise
decision. The existence of a toll bridge
at that point baa not only been against
Albany’s interest, but an intolerable an
noyance to every passer-by.
The National Campaign.
Tlio lamentable disagreements among
Democrats in Southern States, have
thrown an unmistakable damper on tbe
national campaign for Hancock. True,
it is probable that all these Southern
States will be won for him after all, and so
the evil be more moral than actual. But
ft is a serious let-down to Democratic
enthusiasm to know that a common devo
tion to the great cause of civil liberty and
good government, is not sufficiently strong
to bury all local controversies, and brin:
together, in lock step, and with locked
shields, the whole Democratic phalanx of
America, in one grand, unanimous
embracing stand for the re-establishment
of the ancient traditions of free and hon
est government. It is a most unwelcome
and portentous sight to those Democrats
of the North and West, to see their allies
of the South battling with each other, in
stead of the common enemy.
But since it must be so, is it not pos
sible that we can pnetermit some of tbe
barbarities of warfare between sworn
political enemies. Can we not, in some
sort, agree to disagree— resolve that this
appeal from conventional disagreements
to the people shall go no further; shall
not interrupt the general harmonies of the
party; shall cease with the popular de
cision; shall leave no traces behind it, but
shall find the great Democratic party of
Georgia reconsolidated on that decision,
whatever it may be.
To effect this most desirable consumma
tion we would make an earnest appeal to
all speakeis and writers to withhold tongue
and pen from personal severity, abuse and
crimination—to be chivalrous and knightly
in tbeir warfare, and say and do nothing
to make chronic animosities.
Conclusive and Unanswerable.
The reply of Governor Colquitt to the
severe strictures upon his administration,
made by Mr. Norwood in his Atlanta and
Savannah speeches, ought to be satisfac
tory to tbe most implacable opponent of
bis excellency. It is published in extenso
in this issue, and will make a most vain-
able campaign document.
So completely are tbe charges against
the governor refuted, that at tbe end of
tbe answer to each specification the letters
Q. E. D. might be appropriately super-
added.
We are particularly pleased with the
decorum and courtesy manifested to
wards his opponent, under great aggrava
tion, and trust so worthy an example
will be heeded in all the forthcoming dis
cussions of the canvass.
Andrew Female College.
We invite attention to the advertise
ment of this excellent institution, pub
lished elsewhere to-day. Rev. A. L.
Hamilton, D. D., the accomplished presi
dent, is one of the best trainers of the fe
male mind to be found in tbe whole
country. While a very martinet in disci
pline, he ye tpossesses the happy faculty, in
a remarkable degree, of winning tbe affe>
tion and respect of tbe" young ladies under
his charge. The energy and industry, too, of
the doctor are proverbial, and the people
of Southwest Georgia are laigely iudebted
to him for making Andrew College what
it really is, one of the best seminaries of
learning in the State. We are glad to
know the stately college building has been
thoroughly repaired aud renovated, and
tbe grounds tastily laid off and adorned
with flowers and shrubs. The attendance
of pupils is larger than for many years
past. For particulars, address tbe presi
dent at Cutkbert, Georgia, and send for
catalogue.
Sharp Shooting.—Dr. John Ruth and
bis wife have made their advent in New
York from the West, as sharpshooters.
They distance all riflemen and pistolers—
even Bogardus and Carver. One perform
ance shows great conjugal harmony as
well as good marksmanship. Dr. Ruth
holds an ordinary visiting card in bis
month and permits his wife to shoot
several rifle balls through it.
Indiana.—The World quotes a state
ment made in the executive committee
room that the Indiana Democrats had sent
word that they would not draw on the
committee, but would raise ail necessary-
campaign funds at home. Hendricks will
make thirty speeches iulndiana before the
election. The fight in the Hoosicr State
is severe.
- . — -.-a»c—
A Northern exchange remarks that
the battle of Gettysburg was fought, on
the rebel side, mainly by Longstreet’s
troops. This eminent Confederate is now
drawing the comfortable salary of $7,500
Mr. Hayes’ minister to Turkey.
Meanwhile the Union soldier , who won
the battle of Gettysburg, and saved Penn
sylvania and the North from invasion, is
being denounced by the Republican press
as a traitor and rebel sympathizer. Some
how it seems as if things had been mixed.
Dangers of the Telephone.—The
Louisville Courier-Journal of Sunday,
says during the lightning discharges,
yesterday afternoon, the telephone wires
in the northern and northwestern portions
of the city became dangerously charged
with the electric fluid, and a large number
of telephones were destroyed. The tele
phone inspector reported fifty-two lines
open and seventy-five microphones burned.
The open lines were broken partly by tbe
wind aud storm, and partly by being
burned by tbe lightning. The telephone
system in this city, as in every other, is
protected as much as possible from the
dangers of the lightning, but perfect se
curity cannot be obtained, and although
exceptionally fortunate heretofore the
loss yesterday was very large.

seem to thiuk that the majority and the
minority in the late gubernatorial, oon-
vention are equally to blame for this dis
cord, while I aud others think the blame
rests entirely with the majority.
When the convention met, that “over
whelming majority,” about which there
lias been so much boasting, of their own
accord and on tbeir own motion, aim
with the full co-operation of the minority,
aud by'the publicly ekprtssted approba
tion of Governor Colquitt through Gener
al Young, a member of the convention,
adopted the two-thirds rule. This is a
fact that no one will deny, and that rule
thus adopted, became, and continued.to
be, the law of that convention, and the vio
lation of which is the cause, the founda
tion of all our troubles. Right or wrong
it was the self-imposed law of the conven
tion, and could not have been tbe law if
it bad not been made so by the majority,
and they, and they alone, are responsible
for that law—and it was so made the
law that a majority, no matter howlaree commonwealth
unless amounting to two-thirds of the
convention, should not make a nomina
tion. This cannot be dispnted.
Now, who bid defiance to and broke
that law—that two-tbirds rule? No
body but the majority who thus made it;
and this too is as. true as the fact that
it was their own law. And they
broke it against the earnest aud oft re
peated protestations and entreaties of the
minority of the convention. This also is
true and all kuow it to be so. Aud al
though this rule was adopted, this law
made in the interest of peace and har
mony aud seemingly out of respect to
the opinions, feelings and wishes of the
minority, some 142 members of that con
vention, and thereby secure harmony in
the actions of the convention and satis
faction to all in its results, the majori
ty in violation of their own rule, their
own law, and in contempt of the opin
ions, wishes and feelings of that large
minority, aud that too at the hazard of
breaking up the Democratic party, and to
the great disturbance of the peace and
quiet of society broke up the convention
in violation of their own pledge contain
ed in their own law, and recommended
only, without a nomination,. Gov. Colquitt,
who, in equal violation of his own promise,
there announced by Gen. Young not to
be a candidate without being nominated
by the two-thirds rule, is, under their
recommendation, now a candidate for
governor. And this too is true.
The inajo: ity, as it there wa3 no oilier
mau in the whole State worthy and fit
for governor but Colquit, tbe minority
willing aud agreeing to vote for any other
good Democrat but him, who was objec
tionable, as they honestly thought, ou ac
count of the errors of his administration—
the majority still urged him, and would
vote for no one else—aud thereon broku
up tbe convention.
Under these circumstances, this sad
condition of tilings brought about by the
majority, and which tbe minority were
powerless to prevent and retain their
selt-respect, tbe minority has presented to
the people that able, true and uuswerviug
Democrat, the Hon. Thomas M. Nor
wood, of the county of Chatham, for gov
ernor. Had they not the unquestionable
right to do so?
Colquitt is running as an “Indepen
dent,” without a nomination of the con
vention, against their own law and
against his own pledge not to run as be is
running—and, therefore, running “Inde
pendent.” too. And so is ilr. Norwood,
and that, too, without the violation of
any law, or-any pledge. And lie comes
before the people under fairer circum
stances, aud has, therefore, more claims
upon them than Gov. Colquitt lias, and
his ability to discharge the duties of the
office, know one will doubt who kuows
him; and his moral character is abovo
reproach. If the convention, under their
own two-thirds rule, or under the majority
rule, if they had adopted it, and they
certaiuly could have done it—had nomi
nated Gov. Colquitt, with all my objec
tions to him, I would have voted for him
in the interest of the peace and
harmony of the Democratic party, hut the
majority did not adopt the majority rule,
but the two-thirds rule, aud afterwards
refused to abide by it.
The Democratic convention that met to
nominate a governor of Georgia, quite a
Dumber of years ago, before the war, had
before them as the ouiy candidate for that
office, Henry G. Lamar, of Bibb, John
H. Lumpkin, of Floyd, and Col. Gardner,
of Augusta. That convention, before it
made,or attempted to make its nomination,
as did our late convention, adopted
the two-tliirds rule, .as well as I remem
ber, and if they did not adopt that they
adopted the majority rule, and they abided
by it throughout, and under that rule,
whichever rule it was, and I think it was
the two-tliirds rule, the convention bal
loted several days without being able to
make a nomination under the rule they
had adopted, the friends of neither
of those willing to yield their individual
preferences. The harmouy and peace of
the Democratic party was for some days
greatly disturbed by tbe friends of each
of the candidates sticking to them, when
prompted by a desire for peace, a mo
tion was made to appoint a committee to
report to the convention some person not
then a candidate as a suitable man for the
nomination. Tbe committee was ap
pointed, and selected and reported the
name of Joseph E. Brown, and he was
then chosen as the nominee of the con
vention*
Harmony was thus restored, and he
was elected governor, and that was the
way he was first made governor. The
minority of the convention, with that and
.other such examples before them, and
sudi peaceful .results following them,
urged that a similar course should be pur
sued in the late convention, and which
could have beeu done witha similar grati
fying result, but the majority refused to do
it and treated with contempt their offers of
peace thus earnestly held out to them,
and in consequence of their tyrannical
conduct discord now reigns. Who but
—An Iowa woman by her will left an
old armchair to one ot her sons. In the
stuffing was found a roll of bank notes
amounting to $400. The legal question
is whether the money belongs to tbe son.
tbe “majority” that brought this about by
violating their own law is to blame? Who
the disorganizers ? And now, why should
not all true, consistent, peace-loving
Democrats, including all original Colquitt
men vote for Norwood. Colquitt and the
majority have forfeited all claims upon
them, and upon all true Democrats, by an
open violation of their own two-third3
rule, and they are the last men in the
world who should blame and abuse the
minority who would not break, but abided
by that rule to the last. Some think this
boasted inqjoriiy should hide their faces
in shame, and these are, I think, strong
reasons to justify such an opinion.
So let us all vote as we please, and vote
for Norwood. In this we have the illus
trious example of Governor Brown. In
1S8S he pleased to vote for Bullock, but
his example in that case I did not follow
—far from itJ He not only voted for Bul
lock, but be voted for him against the gal
lant John B. Gordon; and he not only
voted for Bullock against Gordon in that
memorable contest, but he was a leaflet in,
acted with, and advised the “carpet-bag”
jarty that, after the election, counted in
ilullock over Gordon without ever exhib
iting to the public, so far as I ever knew
or lieard, the stale of the polls, and it was
supposed at that time that Gordon was
elected by a large majority. But Gordon
was counted out, and Bullock counted in,
which was quite as bad, as corrupt, as the
counting m of Ilayes over Tilden. After
all this, Governor Colquitt preferred Gov
ernor Brown to all other men in Georgia
to send to the United States Senate,
and General Gordon resigned his seat
there and made the place vacant for him.
I thought then, aud think yet, it was an
insult to Georgia, and reflected no credit
upon either Governor Colquitt or General
Gordon, notwithstanding the “smartness”
that some concede to Gov. Brown.
General Gordon in liis speech here, on
Monday before tbe election for delegates
the Wednesday following, and in which
there was more real humbuggeiy and less
truth than in any speech I ever heard in
my life, fully indorsed Governor Brown
and his conduct, and argued that he had
always been right affll the Democratic
leadere, for the Radical vote for Colquitt,
there is no doubt, and if they (the Radi
cal party) are in the market for saie, they
will buy them, for they can command the
money, or premise them offices with
which to make the purchases.
I do not think Governor Brown has any
claim upon the Radical party, for he for
sook it when he found himself unable to
control his 30,000 white Radicals, aud his
90,000 colored ones, and when he was
beaten for the United States Senate by
that honest and incorruptible man. Joshua
Hill, he quit them—they ceased to have
power and will to give him office.
That party ought voluntarily, of their
own free will, give their support to Mr.
Norwood, as Governor Brown did, volun
tarily, and of his own preference, give
Lis vote to Bullock in 1868.
Most respectfully, Eli Warren.

How To Dress Frogs.—As pot pies,
stews and cbowdertliey are a failure. The
only legitimate way to cook a frog is to fry
him brown in sweet table butter. As a
preliminary, he must be dipped in a hatter

closely when cooked, forming a dainty
cracKncll of a golden brown color, with a
crisp twang to it when submitted to the
teeth. The tender juices thus retained
lose none of their delicate flavor, and the

Halifax, N. S., August 25.—Conley,
the Portland oarsman, who defeated Mc
Kay last .week, is willing to accept a cha!
lenge of Nagle, of St. John, for a three
mile race,provided it be rowed ou Bedford

St, John man will not row outside.of. St.
John.
The Rowing Association, of this city,

Paris, August 25.—The article of the
Forth Germau Gazette on GambetU’s
speech at Cherbourg has produced some
sensation here. The llepubliquc Fran-
caise, if. Garabetta’s organ, replies in
moderate but firm language. It disclaims
any intention on the part of France to
disturb the peace. Provocations have
coine during the past ten years not from
France but from Germany. The Iiepub-
lique Franeahe attributes the article to
the wish to justify the enormous German
armament. Other Republican papers
write iu the 6ame strain.
London, August 25.—A dispatch from
Dublin to tbe Times says: Some addi
tional alarm may perhaps be produced in
regard to the state of Ireland among peo-
f le at a distance by the disclosure of
eniauism rnadeby a correspondent of the
New York Herald in Ireland. Very few,
however, will be alarmed, or believe it to
be important. The secret society of Irish
Republicans does exist, but it is compar
atively harmless. Such an organization
lias attractions for extreme fanatical en
thusiasts. It is evidently recognized by
the Parnellites, but an association of
fanatics is an association of essentially
discontented men, and they are beginning
to grumble at the smallness of tbeir share
of tbe glory of the anti-English agitation.
Neither itseli nor its organs in the press
are thriving financially. The Farnellite
organization is much inore important.
The Right Hon. William E. Gladstone

A dispatch from Vienna to the Times
says: The article of the Forth German
Gazette commenting on M. Gambctta’s
utterances at Cherbourg, caused a sensa
tion here.. Its firm but moderate lan
guage is generally approved.
Tne Times, in a leading editorial, up
holds Gambetta’s speech, which, it says,
under tbe circumstanceses, is neither rash
nor provocative. The only point of com
fort in the challenge of tbe Forth German
Gazette, is the avowal that Germany will
never again interfere iu political affairs
in France.
A dispatch from Carulahar states that

dian Prince Raunchuudra, who is related
to the notorious Nana Sahib, has again
appeared as the friend and adviser of Ab-
durrahinau Kahn, to meet whom, lie is
for the second time on his way to Afghan
istan. Suspicions, on account of his
former movements in Russia aud Afghan
Turkistan, have been created in the minds
of those wlio believe in the latest report of
Russian intrigues iu Afghanistan, will
probably only be increased by the latest
advices.
Rauucliundra intends to go to Tisheran
on his way to the Ameer’s headquarters.
He says the Ameer finds 110 sympathy at

ing therein the danger to Herat, which
