There are two aspirants in this district for the Senate. D. Chicago Tribune. GEORGIA GLEANINGS. Americas, July 4.—The ooanty convention to-day elected Hon. Alien Fort, Hon. J. H. Blrck, Hon. W. H. Davidson andJ.O- Rooney Esq, delegates to the State conven. tion. They favor tho nomination of Ste phens for governor. The convent’on alio declared in favor of the majority rule. The election of Stephens delegatee from tlita coaoty is mainly dae to two causes, first a good many good Democrats refrain ed from voting in the nomination because they would not bind themselves to vote for Stephens, should he be nominated. The other eause was the active war made on the Legislative record of Hon. A.O. Bacon. It waa charged that be defeated, or caused the defeat of what was known a« (he Gnerry bill before the last Legtslatere. The ob- , eet of this bill was to relieve Americas from freight discriminations, and of course such a charge, coming from a reliable source, had great local effect against the opponents of Stephens, aa Ba con was tbe only other name prominently before our people. The convention to-day made no recommendation as to Gongrets- nan at large. A negro brick mason fell from the top f Sheffluel’s new buildingyvsterday, strik ing a wheelbarrow of brick. Tha fall waa a long one, but our latest advices are that it will, probably, not prove fatal. The news received to-day that Coffee county had elected Cook delegates to the Congressional convention waa a great sur prise to the friends of Judge Crisp, as they ere anre of that oonnty. Crisp (■ making very active canvass, and getting in a'l the work possible before the adjournment of Congress. This connty will elect delegates to the Congressional convention on the first Tuesday in August. Dublin. July 4.—Delegatee for Jaly 19th will be selected to-dsy. I can’t say that they will be instructed lor any body,but am inclined to think that they will ba instructed to vote agtinst Mr. Stephens. The ooanty Mr. L. W.
