Dooming Oat. To-day's county conventions will al- most certainly determine the complexion of the State convention, in so far as con cerns the candidacy of Mr. Stephens. When he first permitted himself to be Im portuned into entering the canvass for the gubernatorial office, an effort was made by certain sensational papers and the'r hangers on to get up such an amount of enthusiasm as would carry the whole party and State by storm. The attempt failed.* The enthusiasm was artificial and ridiculous. It vras amnsiug be cause overacting always appeals to one’s sens© of the ludicrous. It was short-lived be cause it was not genuine. Affected enthusi asm Is too wearing to last. Tin public sense of fair dealing will not tolerate a sham at this point; and the poor fellows who try frantically, and luvain, to get up whoop find nothing else so comforting as Is the opportunity of hlditqr their dlndu- lshed beads. The suppos ed boon wte'i boom, and the frantic aud ft-tllklal en thusiasm has settled d*. wa into a subdued melancholy. The whoop ore have been “grinned.” The rctulft, up to date, so far from •flowing anything like a popular uprising of Democrats for the nomination or Mr. Stephens, indicate strong and lr- reconcilable opposition to him, on va rious grounds. Indeed, so great is the opposition that his wildest and most unreasonable supporters do now claim that it is possible for him to get the support of two-thirds of the delegates to the convention. At first It was claimed that the convention would be unanimous in his fsvor. Then the en thusiastic estimate fell to the claim of an Indorsement that would be “practically unanimous." Later on, these wise po litical seers were claiming a little lew. They were content with a two-thirds in dorsement which they assured the public Mr. Stephens would surely get. Now, a bare majority will satisfy them ; and they will be absolutely happy if they can, through personal favoritism to Mr. Stephens, secure tlie repeal of the two-thirds rule, and put him before the people on a simple majority Indorsement, It will nghtly take a two-thirds vote to abolish tho two-thirds rule; and we do not believe that so large a number of tha delegates can be Induced to abrogate that rule, to bring about the nomination of a man to whom than one-third of the parly is unalterably opposed. The efforts on the part of the advocate* of Mr. Stephens to roj*al that rule is a confession that, lu their judg ment, be will not be able to secure the support of two-thirds of the convention, But it is not admitted that he will i cure a majority evon of the delegates. The present outlook ia unfavorable to such a result. If that much be accom plished, U will be done only by going out side of party usages, in the middle and northern counties, and allowing Inde pendents to take pail in the selection of delegates. As we have stated elsewhere, on reliable autl^ritjr,thu policy has al ready been threatened ia portions of the ninth district. It is a confession of weakness on the part of the Democratic advocates of the Stephens nomination ; and it Is, at the same time, an outrage on our party roeth It Is a violation of fair dealing that ought not to be tolerated, to allow tha anemlea of the party to come into its conventions, not to conform to Demo cratic usages and to Indorse Us methods, but to control a special convention In the Interest of especial candidate, whose nom ination they think will contribute to the permanent advantage of Icdependentlsm. The Stephens boom Is a confessed fail ure on the part of those who have been trying to write It up, In the face of the admission that, to secure even a majority of the delegates, It has been necessary to go outside of the party to get tba requi site number of votes. A nomination gained by snch methods would not meet tha approval of Georgia Democrats—es pecially If such nomination should ba ef fected by the repeal of the two-thirds rule. Tba indications thus point to the fact that tba boom for Mr. Stephens has degenerated into a discreditable scram ble for the office—a scramble which does not hesitate to seise upon the Independ ents and proas them into service, to meet the special emergency. Cotton Bfatemeut. According to the New York financial Chronicle of July 1st, the receipts of cot ton up to Friday night, June 30th, from September lit, 1881, were 4,620,487 bales, agiiuat 6,064,683 bales In 1881 at sune date, and against 4,842,134 bales lu 1880, showing a falling off compared with 1881 1,064,196, aud as compared with 1880 of 221,647 bales. Receipts for the week ending on last Friday night, were 0,288 bales, against 20,60? bale* last year at »me dale, and against 17.067 bales in 1880. Slock in the Interior towns on last Fri day night was 60,417 bales, against 78,- 617 iu 1881. Stock in Macon on Friday night was 1,021 bales, agalust 3,726 bales iu 1881. The total visible supply of cotton on last Friday night was 2,067,164 bales against 2,275,204 bales in 1881, and against 1,020,- 480 bales In 1880. These figures Indicate a decrease In the amount of cotton sight a» compared with 1881 of 208,050 bales, and an incr ase as compared with the same date in 1880 of 140,608 bales. Middling cotton was quotea in Liver pool on Friday last at 0|; and on tba same date last year it was quoted at 6 3-10, the features of poetic license about It, and this fact adds nothing to its presontablo- ncts. Tlio gubernatorial office la not & sinecure. Its duties call for an active and vigorous incumbent. There is no poetry about It. It Is a peculiarly practical af fair, and unreasoning sentimentalism can have no part In suggesting a way of filling it to the honor and advantage of the Stato.

II wlUba remembered thaltha pro prietor of tha Poet Appeal asserted not long sinco a purpose to support Mr. Sta- pfatns uuden auy and all circumstances— except only In tha event ha should request him not to do so. That is tha sense of the recant editorial remark that we have In mind. Since that utterance that paper has withdrawn iu support from Mr. Ste phens In a somewhat mournful manner What we wish to find out now is Just this: Did Mr. Stephens request the Puat-Ajb peal to remove his name from the head of Its editorial columns? If so, on what grounds does ha object to being supported by the heretofore leading Stephens paper In the State? If not, than how does tba proprietor of that paper explain tba fact of his change of purpose In vi^w of the declaration alluded to In the opening sen tence of this article ? An explanation of ibis point would not be without interest just now. The desertion of Mr. Stephens by the ro*f-rij>j»fu/U a significant circumstance. It is said that “rate will leave a sinking ship." Many men, like them, will not tail to forsake a failing causa. The fatal- hearted net* of the original Stephens paper shows that U to conduced that the cause of Mr. Stephens to hopeless. Now that the most prominent Stephens paper has forsaken the old Commoner, we may look out for a general stampede In the strag gling anny or the new coalitionists. The old gentlemau has never learned that “discretion to the beUet part cl valor." If he liad done so, ha would make baste t£ follow Col. Thornton into the ranks of the opposition. One woald think that decidedly preferable to begging a nomi nation at the bauds of a party, and hav ing bis request loglonoosly refused. Sster bribr* In the history of the party has It hod taurc earns to avoid internal and promt a steady un tlvtded Croat to the dbiMMsah Jfare. Yee, and that is one reatoo why the effort to fore* Mr. Stephens upon an an willing party Is so reprrtenalbls. If tha Snc» knows anything about Democratic aasUl- merit in Georgia U mass be aware of tha fact that thereto mots irreconcilable oppo sition to Mr. Blapfen* In tha Democratic rank* then to aaj other man whoso has bean mentioaoJ, at any time. In AMumptlons o! the “Mew*. 1 The nomination ot Mr. Stephen* will insure Democratic unity in Georgia, and will crush out IndependentUm so completely that we be lieve It would lead to the return of ten straight- out Democrats os Representative* to the forty- eighth Congraa from the Empire Bt*tc of tho 8outh. This fact alone is sufllclcnt to fully Justify Mr. Stephens being selected by the Dem. ocratic convent)on, to L* held in Atlanta on the 19th Instant, as the standard bearer of the party.—Soeasna* .V« That the semblance of a reason Is bet ter than no reason at all seems to be the position of the Newt on the gubernatorial question. The peculiar paragraph quoted above Justifies this conclusion. It to a sample of the strongest showing which auy of tba Jeffersonian organs have yet been able to make, in support of the great folly of making Mr. Stephens the nominee of tho July convention. When we speak of it as the strongest showing that the Jeffersonians have been ablo make for their candidate we do not mean to say that It is strong, as com pared with a creditable showing in de fense of the nomination oi any given man, but limply that it la the best that the Stephens men have yet been ablo to think of, In their advocacy of the nomina tion of that gentleman. Tho trouble with the particular showing In question is, It starts out with an assumption of some thing that isn't true. As a matter of course wo take It for granted that our effersonian contemporary believes nomination or Mr. Stepbeus will secure .Democratic unity in Georgiabut the fact that it does believe It only shows that our contemporary is poorly posted as to the real soutlmsnts of tho Democratic masses. There Isn't a prominent Demo crat In the State, eligible to the guberna torial office, whose nomination would so surely teudto destroy Democratic unity, as would that of Mr. Stephens. The Newt certainly ought to be well enough posted on the record of its candidate, for the past twenty years, to know why this is so. It Is nothing to the purpose to say that this, that and the other thing, objec tionable In his party record, ought to have been condoned long ago. It may be true that tba Democratic masses ought to be as forgetfnl as the Newt Is with reference to the record of Its policy candidate, but that to not the point. The fact In the case Is the other way. There are thou sands of good and true Democrats In Georgia who have not forgotten the an gularitles In Mr. Stephens's record, from 1861 down to the writing of the Smith letter, and It to the veriest folly to talk of uniting them In his support. It to true that Mr. Stephens Is more popular with tlie enemies of the Democratic party than any of our leaders. Uls popularity lu thoie quarters was established by the very methods aud acts which make him an undesirable candidate to thousands of Democrats all over the State. Ills popu larlty on the one band to the exact meas ure otbls unpopularity on the other. For the very reason, for Instance, that a Grant Radical would look with favor upon the candidacy of Mr. Stephens, a Democrat, who despises the old bummer—and all right-thinking Southern Democrats do abhor him—will necessarily look with disfavor upon such a nomlua'Jon. The assumption of the Newt la utterly ground less on this point. Is there any reason for abating that the proposed nomination will **crusb out In- dependenttom so completely" as to “lead to the return of ten strelgbtout organized Democrats’* to the Forty-eighth Congress? The assumption that the indorsement of a man who to on record as a supporter of Independent Speer and Felton, will de stroy lndependentism, to ntierly ground less and unreasonable. The leading in dependents look with favor upon the nomination of Mr. Stephens, knowing that it will contribute to their cwu sue In the legislative and Congressional elections. They could favor it on no other grounds. This to why, in some of the counties, they went Into the Demo cratic primaries and controlled them In the Interest of the Jeffersonian candi date. Felton and Speer lack a great deal of being fools. They certainly would not join In a movement which would ‘crush out" the Independent organiza tion. In the event the Democratic party should, on the ground of the supposed truth of these two wild assumptions, com mit itself to the support ot Mr. Stephens, we ere of the opinion that, the sev enth and ninth districts will send Inde pendents to the forty-eighth Congress; and there to strong reason to fear that the eighth district will do likewise. It will be noticed that tb# Newt consol idates ka two violent assumption* and ■peaks of them as a “fact." It says: “This fact aume Is suffiden: to fully jus tify Mr. Stephens being selected by the Democratic convention." What to the “fact" about which It speaks? Its inser tion* and assumptions, In the paragraph under consideration, are not fact*. It be that the Newt believes that they are tens, hot Us belief that a couple of lu as sumptions are founded in reason does not constitute a “fart," in such sort aa justify the conclusion that Mr. Stephans ought to be tba standard-bearer the party. Tba truth to, tha whole array of totalled reasons that, from first to last, have been given in ad vocaey of perpetrating this crowning folly of bomtes, to not mora real or respecta ble than are the violent asaumpikme The Bsmusut Clreeisbnekeni The Texas Oreenbxckers are on tlie rampage. The proceedings at tfcelr State couvamiou wet* wild aud disorderly. The spirit of Jack Cade seems to have been breathed Into the motley array, and the rip-roaring delegates struck franticallr around them liko blind men beatlcg the Liquor and license ran riot through out the galberiug. Judging from the ac count given In the Galveston Newt, it is fair to say that the expressldn, “Hell's broke loese In Texas," came very near being literally exemplified In the Green back convention. It was a gathering of political bedlamites; and they showed themselves worthy of the pot-houses whence they cam«, and of the country whither they go. The proceedings would not have done discredit to a Richmond county gathering of short-staple patriots, Among other resolves, was the stereotyped Greenback resolution that “tbqDemocratic party has outlived Its usefulness," and that, as a consequence, all man should flock to the Greenback standard. Even were It true, as concluded by the bedla mites, that the Democratic party has out lived its espacity to serve tlie country in the ways of usefulness, tho criticism would come with bad grace from tho Greenbackers, who have never had any usefulness to outlive, and who will proba bly not have any for all time to come. re glad to know that the Texas Greenbackers are ou the rampage. We cannot Imagine anythidgmore refreshing during this sultry weather than tbeipecta- de of a colony or two of wild and ram bling National Greenbackers rending the air ol Texas with thoir discordant voices, and beating their hollo w-heads against Its Impregnable Democratic defenses. We will underwrite for them that their organization will die before it becomes useful, except in giving free exhibitions of most ludicrous politics! uselessness.

Dames, the Ken tucky evangelist, who is now laboring for the church In that State. He has by tbe simple power of his prayer and eloquence brought thousands to repentance; and not simply ignorant aud unlettered people of the country, easily moved by excitement and susceptible. He numbers among his flock tlie governor, Itenteuant-goveroor, Judges of the Inferior and Superior Court, officials generally, officers of the late Con federacy and a host of cultivated and re fined gentlemen from various walks of life. The preacher to described as simply Irresistible; a man thoroughly Imbued with truth and faith in the Scriptures. Uls appeals are directed at the heart, and with what effect may be easily imagined. Dut not to the spiritually Infirm are his labors couQued; be goes about curing the bodily ailments and lifting up the allllct- ed. Ills plau Is best described in his own words. Ou being asked by a reporter what was meant by tbe expression* which are sometimes used In reports of his meetings, “confessions to tbe soul" and “confessions to the body," he replied: ■ “Ooatessioa to the body refect to my healing by means of anointing with oil. About • year *f° 1 begun this In connection with my work in the mountains of Ksntucky, and the Lord has blessed my work wonderfully. I never ask man what ails him. The Lord Is Iho doctor, not I. I have nothing to do in the matter but act as God bids me. 1 last my action on the fourteenth and fifteenth verses of James. I do not know what good thaoll does. 1 do not stop to inquire anything about that. The Lord bids to anoint with oil and I do !L I carry a small vial of oil In my pocket and Jnst touch It slightly upon the forehead of the afflicted, then prey with them earnestly In m/simple way as best I know how, and leave U all with the Lord, trusting Him for Ills word. Anda» my faith becomes simpler and stronger my eees become* more marked. Tbe devil tempted me strongly when Ood first put it In my mind to do this. The devil said 1 would fail and that U would rain my preaching, but thanks be to God, 1 began It, with the assists nee of my daughter, In tboee mountain districts, and haTe since continued it whereret 1 have been, and I have never had a failure where unbelief did not Interfere. I have had thousand* of and I know of three or four hundred myself who have come to me to tell me that they got wclL The cures are not always Im mediate. In some cases they are instantane ous, and In others they are not" fractions, Iwenty.four of the unlnatructed eighty-four to the advocacy of the majori ty rule, and sixty of them to tho support of the rule as it stands. Of tbe sixty-one counties represented In our Tuesday's table, according to our method cf calcula tion, one hundred and twenty-two dele gates favor retaining tbe two thirds rule and fifty favor adopting the majority, or tho Republican rule. Even In the event that the Democratic rule stands only an even chance among the unlnatructed dele gates, It ia safe to say that that old party landmark Is still safe from tho iconclastlc touch of party lnnovationtste and misguid ed reformers. It ia uoticeable that a number of coun ties that favor the nomination of Mr. Ste phens reject bla suggestion with reference to abolishing tbe Democratic rule. We cannot but regard this as a hopeful Indi cation. It abowa that while they are wil ling to support Mr. Stephens, if be should receive the nomination accotding to time- honored party usage, they are unwilling to sacrifice the peculiar and distinctive fea ture of oar nominating conventions, in order to bring him before tbe people as the Democratic standard-bearer. In this the Interests of the man are subordinated to those of the party. It furnishes a guar antee, so far as those counties are cou- cerncd, that tbeir delegates will not be guilty of the wickeduess of sacrificing party rule and party interest and the peace of tbe State on tbe altar of abject personalism—as was the case at the last gubernatorial convention. This to en couraglng. The peace of the party la worth more than all its leaders; for It oughtto survive them and their children** children. It to perhaps unnecessary, at this time, make any extended defense of tbe two- thirds rule. It is absolutely true, as far our reading has gone, that uot one tub anllal reaton has beeu given In favor of abrogation. The plea in favor of the majority's ruling, in tbe matter of nomi nations, Is only specious. It is fuily put to rout by the unquestionable fact that majority of tbe convention will not rep resent a majority of the party; so that tbe veiy argument used for showing the propriety of adopting the Radical rale of nominating candidates answers itself. It would require someth lug more than majority of the convention to represent majority of the party. If the argument worth anything at all, it goes to show that a larger proportion of the convention than oven two-tbirds of Us members ought to agroo upon a candidate; for may easily be seen that it by no means follows that two-thirds of tha delegates represent even a majority of the Demo- cradc voters of the State. Illustration not needed to make this point any plainer. Dut an argument In favor of the ma jority rule Is attempted to be drawn from the last unfortunate and disgraceful gubernatorial campaign. The conse quences of that political struggle will be apparent in Georgia during the lives the coming generation. It was a deplora ble affair, but tbe two-thirds rule Is in no way responsible for It, because Jl was brought on by an open aud Inexcusable violation ol that rule. If tbe convention had adhered to the rule, by which the members pledged themselves to abide, nomination would have been effected, and tlie party would have been saved from tbe bitterest and most incurable of all wounds —tboso given and received In Illegitimate party warfare. Tbe lesson to be derived from tbe unpatriotic personal struggle two years ago teaches the great danger or •suing aside a canon of the party- hoary with an age of useful- In order to subeerve the ends of unpatriotic psrsonallstn. is difficult to see how a stronger Illustra tion of the wisdom of the two-thirds rule could be made lhan that which to furn ished by the late wrangle between Nor wood and Colquitt over the gubernatorial bone. It to evident that the advocates the rule which obtained In the old Whig party, and which is ot force now in the Radical party, can add no strength what ever to their cause by refemug to the heated canvass which bad a being only through a violation of tbe two-Urirds role, Democrats are In tbe habit of aubmlttlng to nominations made In accordance with Democratic ctutom; audit Is welt enough to consider tba fart that the times are propitious Just now for violent Innova tions on that custom, In the interest of any man, great or small. his party and an cu*my to his native State. Now Jones, of Texas, is being l eld up to view as the political aalut of far West, In that be is supposed to have the will and the power to measure arms with Democracy in its Texas strongholds.

It was not necessary that there should be any additional evidence to establish tba utterly abandoned character of tha Gulteau party, now In power, and repre sented In tha White House by a pot- bouse politician, and, In tbe prees, by that pot-house bully's obsequious man Friday, of tbe Washington Republican. There Uni a single decent characteristic In tbe whole concern. It has no principle* out side of power, patronage and plunder. It indorsed repudiation In Virginia, to maintain its bold upon power. There to nothing, which would tend to strengthen it In Its bold upon tba public purse, at which It would balk. It adopts tha senti ment of snaky John Sherman, of Ohio, that ncthlng which tenda to ktlp the Democrats out of office Is Illegitimate. Tbe following extract from the Washing ton Republican Indicates tbe truth of what we have said: The pollUtal campaign In Texas opened Thursday lost. A Stale convention of Groen- backers met at Fort Worth and adopted a plat form arraigning tha Bourbon State administra tion for subsidy lexlslatloa. for lack of provis ion for free schools, and other shortcoming*.

There to nothing abandoned In hu man belief, or ihamelesv in human con duct, that the Gulteau party would.not cheerfully condone—that It would not profess and practice, to secure a single po litical triumph. Gulteau gave it the high station which it now defiles; and when those sections of the country which up hold It experience an awakening with re gard to decency and decent methods, it will go to join it* dead and dishonored originator. If Jonea, of Texas, has aatom* ach for such Indorsement, tne Texas Dem ocrats are mote than willing he should re ceive it. Tb« Fnawller Industrie*. We have on several occasions reminded tbe readers of the Txr.KORpn and Mes senger that success Is not confined alone the devious paths ot politics. That the true independence of any people de pends more largely in utilizing the ma terial resources of the land in which they live. There are in the limits of Georgia resources that would employ every idle hand, and engage every Idle brain, and bring competency and comfort to every individual, If they were only utilized. We are now in the midst of one of the most abundant frnlt crops ever knowu In middle Georgia. If the idle people of tbis aectlon could only be induced to go to work and dry the peaches and apples that fill our orchards, this crop would bring; money enough to relieve every necessity. This suggestion, course, will not reach those wbo are idle, but in all coun tries tbe very poor people who need help most depend upon others to do tbeir thinking, and into the hands of those who do read and thick, this may fall. They could not serve this section better nor tbeir neighbors more beneficently than by helping them to undertake this work. Tho fruit crop of our neighboring county, Monroe, last year, with only a partial crop, brought In thousands of dol lars. So may it prove in every county if the unemployed could be put to work. In some portions of tbe United States good livings are made by picking and drying blackberries. With the abundant crops of oats, wheat and corn, and tbe fruit crop properly cared for, every mere chant would be able to meet every de mand, and every household be made hap py In the enjoyment of prosperity, BlMk la IbefEMt. It will b* seen from our telegraphic dispatches that matters at Alexandria, Egypt, have assumed an additional threat ening phase. The Egyptian authorities have been constructing forts and water batteries, and mounting heavy guns bear ing on the harbor. Admiral Seymour, with proverbial Eoglish promptness, has notified tbe Alexandrian officials that they must desist from these preparations, or take tbe consequences. No one ac quainted with English methods in all such cases will doubt that Admiral Sey mour Is not In a jesting humor. Right or wrong, a message of the character sent by tbe representative of English power in the harbor, means just what It says. It means acquiescence, or tbe bombardment of Alexandria. Neither vacillation, nor any other species of weakness, finds a dwelling place in Drittoh methods. It to with the Arabs to say whether U shall be peace or war. One would think they bad right to build defenses on their own soil, and mount them with heavy guns, pointing at will; but ques tions of right are ic abeyance when Eng land has a purpose in view that can only be accomplished by an appeal to arms. It would be well for Egypt to heed tbe warning of Admiral Seymour, and let the water batteries alone. Whatever tnay be the rights or the case, tho might of the matter floats In tbe harbor, and will speak forth, if occasion presents, out of tbe mouths of monster cannon. Alexandria, at best, is not a fair city to look upon; but its appearance would not be Improved by provoking a contest with a power which neither fears tbe strong nor pities the weak, when Its Interests are threatened and Us injunctions are disregarded* Eng land does not fear tbe consequences bombarding Alexandria. If tlie Arabs do not fear It, tb* city will soon bssmt ruins. And then? Well, tbe armti Europe will probably be mustered then. “Don’t fire me any chin mu«lc or I’ll make > wreck of you!” yelled No. 2. ‘’You’re a thief!' ’•Ditto:" •• You're a—I" At this, point th loose could stand it no longer.

This is a small school in the eastern part of the county, and near the Twigga line. It ia under Mr. Walter J. Heard, a young man who himself received bla training in one of our county publio •hoola. For several years this little school ha* been in feeole condition, and more than onco it* abandonment by the board has boon under consideration. Under th< energetic management of its present you! ful teacher it haa now aeomed to take ol life, aud last Wednesday stood fortl? in its beat apparel for exhibition. The classes were questioned quite freely by Superintendent Zettlor, and the aunwera were genornlly prompt nnd eattafactory. The aenaiblo answers and explanations to practical examples in arithmotio given by one of the older boys, John Rond, were in wide contrast with some work we have aeen on exhibitions of this kind. The lad showed that bo had ideas nnd was compli. mented by the Superintomiont aa one of the beet taught boys of his age he had ever seen. A Very Interesting oxerciso was the “In terrupted Speech," in which one lad set ont to make a speech and was interrupted by another who insisted ho could do it bet ter, and proceeded to make the effort. For a while it was a double speech badly mixed, this Muir would be enough to sicken a horse.
