character and to make the most brutal assaults
upon Independents.
But the most pertinent point Is embod
ied in this t xtract. Speaking of Mr. Ste
phens, he says: /
“Ho is my candidate. 1 believe that, if he Is
a candidate, whether he is nominated by the
Democratic convention or not, he will sweep
the State. Hc will not engage in a scramble for
th® office. It wee his intention to retire alto-
gether, bnt the demand for his services from
toe people of Georgia, who are anxious to get
from under the control of the machine politi
cians, is so general that I don't think he ere
refuse It"
"Will be be taken up as a candidate os be
tween tho tactions?” /
“No; hot in that sense. Ho Is Independent
enough to suit the Independents. We know
hire, and know that his adailelatiation will be
fair, honorable and pure. We know bis liberal
spirit, red that ho never surrenders hi* Inde
pendence to party dictation.”
Next to this comes this slap at Long-
street:
The President's appointments to Georgia
have caused more feeling among one class of
Republicans than to any other 8outhem State
perhaps. A number of changes hdra been
made, red all of them are understood to ha in
accordance with the wishes red suggestions of
Oemraf Longstrset. United States marshal for
that State, who is anxious to become tho Re
publican leader of Georgia. It is objected by
a number of Intelligent Southern Republicans,
who have given the matter attcition, that Gen.
Longstreet cannot succeed in his enterprise.
They contend that he has none of the qualities
that mad o Mahone successful In Virginia. He is
regarded In Georgia somewhat as re alien, red
has no hold on the people of the State. He
has never shown any of toe qualities of the
successful party leader. It la objected farther-
more that the rare who have been removed to
make way for a man of General Iffiigstreet'a
•election am the real leader* of th* Republican
party in Georgia—men Ukgp Internal Revenue
Collector Clark, who are accustomed to eon
trolling the Republican convention, red It la
raid may do it istill.
We have given a sufficiency to show
the animus of the whole. It Is almost
evident enough for a blind man to eee,
that Speer’s suly hope, and;thatof the fac
tion be essays to lead, is that Mr. Ste
phens may consent to ran for governor as
A independent candidate.
As opposed to this hope is the assertion
of Ur. Stephens himself, that he desires
to retire to .private life, and that his candl-
dtcy depends upon two contingencies, via:
the unanimous desire of the people and
his own health.
And both of these are as yet to the
womb of the ftiture. But the Democratic
party has been pot npon fall notice of the
assault likely to be made upon the integ
rity of its organization. To be warned is
to be armed. It has but one course to
pursue. Thatjls straightforward, open and
direct. It must send the timid, the
women and children to the rear, dress Its
front, close its ranks aud give battle to all
comers, no matter to what guise they may
come.
A party that tho New York Tribune
could elevate to power to Georgia means
rain, disgrace and dishonor to alt the
people, end the overthrow and destruction
of the Democratic party.

An Unwarranted Assault.
There it published in the city of Wash'
ington a weekly lournal under the mw
of the .American Register, of which Dr.
Chas. P. Culver, formerly of Georgia, and
tor some Ume the private secretary of Mr.
Stephens, Is one of the editors.
In a late issue of the Register, we find
the following extraordinary paragraph in
a leading editorial:
While we look npon Mr. Stephens as one of
the ablest red purest statesmen of his day, It
not our purpose to commit the Register to the
support of Mr. Stephens to the office of governor
of Georgia at this Ume, by alluding to the
subject, bnt merely to call attention to the tact
that we deprecate the unjustifiable attacks of
the Atlanta Constitution red Macon Telb-
orapii, which these papers are ™«vi»g upon
Mr. Stephens’ Democracy, or bis want ot con
sistency In the support red maintenance of the
great Jeffersonian Democratic principles.
We reproduce this extract in order to
take occasion to say that it does the Tel-
GRA.PH rank injustice. Our contetnpora
ry, the Atlanta Constftufion, is quite com
petent to take care of itself.
But for the Teleobaph, its columns
are open to inspection, and we defy the
writer In the Register, or anybody else,
to find a syllable, line, sentence, paragraph
or article that can be tortured Into an
“unjustifiable attack” either npon the
'consistency” or the “Democracy” of iir.
Stephens. We have never discussed el
tber. We have voiced the widespread ap
prehension among the Democrats within
the scope of the circulation of the Tele
graph, at the dally and persistent claims
of the coalitionists, composed of Republi
cans, negroes and disappointed office-
seekers, that Mr. Stephens was to be tbeir
candidate for governor to overthrow the
Georgia Democracy. We have stated
that the support of this journal would not
be accorded to Mr. Stephens In any each
movement. This was a duty demanded
of ns as a public journalist, and we have
diachaiged it promptly aud plainly; but
we have made no attacks of any kind
upon Ur. Stephens, and have not discuss
ed his Democracy or his consistency.
If we may lnteipret language, the posi
tion of Mr. Stephens is that he earnestly
desire* to retire from public life, but that
he will forego this desire If the whole peo
ple of Georgia rfhall demand of him to be
governor.
Until this contingency grows Into an
accepted fact, it would be manifestly un
timely and improper to discuss the con
sistency or the Democracy of M-. Ste
phens, much less to make “unjustifiable
attacks” upon tim.
