If a national election were to take plaoe to-mor-
tw, the dlvfarion in the rank* of the
dty democracy would sacrifice the party
more rexoorseleaaly than at the late election—and
the fend between the factions promisee to become
only the bitterer as time goes an.
1 be fight between the kelly and anti-Kelly
factions has s*turned a phase of ferodty. literally
unprecedented. The Herald and nearly all the
press lead the anti-Kelly movement, aad their
object openly defined is to grind the Bom into
powder. The Star, Express and a lew other pa
pers respond with brutal vigor In Kelly's defense,
and with a strong Irish hocking, swear vengeance
on all men or factions that raise a voice against
him.
Aa anti-Kelly organisation meets and resolves
that it will never in the future submit to any po

It to not strange, therefore, that even yet there
a glimpse toward Grammercy when a standard-
bearer for ’84 is suggested. If Mr. Tllden were
four or five years younger he would have things
pretty much his own way—for tber nomination

much the same despondency aa that from which
he led It after Greeley's overwhelming defeat In
1872. As it to there to a heavy Tllden feeling mani

been taken to crystalize this sentiment Into com

TUden that day, and that the old man was i

was open for a TUden movement for 1884, and was
very anxious to know how the south would look
on such a programme. Mr. TUden will be Severn-
ty-one in 1884—this gives him a narrow margin.
After all I find that there

‘Emanuel county rendered
has greatly surprised a number of people,
and 1 see that some of your Georgia papers
join issue with you on this question.
"Mr. Stephens—I was much more accu
rately reported in that statement than I
have often been in other cases. I did say
that for several years past the people of
have been growing poorer and
poorer. How it was this year I did not
know, as I had notseeu the comptioller’t
report of 1880. For several years
however, there has been almost a coni
aunual decrease in the aggregate wealth ot
the state, as appeared from tbe comptroller*
general’s report, I spoke from the records,
hut from memory of them only, at the
time.”
A representative of the Chronicle talked
with a number of prominent business men
yesterday in regard to the matter, and we
found them unanimous in the opinion that
the prosperity of Georgia was never greater
thau at the present time.
General M. A. Stovall, resident manager
of the Georgia chemical works and cotton
commts-ion merchant, said he was satisfied
that the condition of the state was never
better than it is now. The planters have
more money, and they show it by spending
it for luxuries which a few years ago they
could not afford to get. They carried on
their planting operations on a cash basis,
principally, and were doing well. He pre
sumed that Mr. Stephens reasoned from
statistics, but it was very apparent to him
that the country was in a prosperous condi
tion.
Mr. C. H. Phinizy, president of the
Georgia railroad, said so far as his observe
tion went, we were never more prosperous.
Mr. Alfred Baker, president of the
National Exchange bank, said Georgia and
South Carolina were both increasing in
prosperity. There is more money and the
rate of interest is lower. He was a planter
himself and could speak for that class. The
crops were never better and the planters had
more mcney at their command.
Mr. Goodyear, of the firm of R. H. May
&. Co., carriage dealera, said the planters
were buying more buggies and wagons this
year thau ever before. This was certainly
evidence of prosperity.
Mr. Wm. E. Jackson, president of the
ational bank of Augusta, said heco isid-
ered that Georgia was in ub-tter condition
to-day than at any time in his recollection,
even before the war. A practical illustra
tion of her condition can be found in the
fact that while a few years ago three-fourths
of the bonds of the state, the debt being
about eight millions—were held in New
York, now about three-fourths are held in
Georgia, her citizens having bought them
This certainly shows that there is money
in the state, and that her citizens arc seek
ing permanent investment in her own se
curities. He had ascertained that
from three-fourths to seven-eighths of the
bonded debt of Augusta, was held in Rich
mond county. A few years ago the plan
ters anticipated their crops and sought ad
vances at a high rate of interest, twelve or
fifteen per ceut discount. Now they seldom
ask for auv aud if for anything, very little,
and this their factors advance without any
paper. Richmond county, as one illustra
tion, plants now a very large quantity of
oats, a lucrative crop, where very little was
planted a few years ago. On every hand
there is evidence of progress and prosperity.
Every store on Broad street is occupied and
those in them must be making money or
they could not pay a high rent. Securities
have advanced and the rate of interest on
the amount invested, is, therefore,' lower
and yet money seeks investment in this
way,
Mr. W. T. Wheless, president of the Com
mercial bank, and a member of the cotton
firm of Sibley & Wheless, said he was sat
isfied that not a single business man would
agree with Mr. Stephens. There were two
practical evidences of the prosperity of the
state, the great increase in the value of se
curities and the decrease in the requests for
advances by the planters. A few years sgo
Georgia railroad stock was quoted at 85;

tal. There is decidedly more money in the

Broad street in this city, and all the mer

Mr. W. H. Howard, cotton factor and
planter, thought the state hgd not declined
in prosperity. The reason, in his estima
tion, why the statistics of wealth did not
appear as great, was because property was
in the hands of fewer men than formerly,
and the few did not make as good returns
as the many. The wealth ia in the state,
but it is not returned. Then, again, there
is a large amount of non taxable bonds in
the state, find these do not appear pn
comptroller general’s sok* A large sum
is also invested in manufactories, which
are non-taxable.
Hon. Robert H. May, mayor of Augusta,
had no hesitancy in saying that the state
of Georgia was very prosperous. Tbe pro
gress of the state could easily be seen in
every direction.
We give these views to show what is the
general opinion in regird to the progress
and prosperity of the state. Cowing from
