The opponents of President Hayes’
Southern policy won a victory at
the meeting of the Republican Com
mittee of Provideuee R. 1., on the
30th ult. The President of the Com
mittee had made himself conspicu
ous by supporting that policy and
denouncing Senator Anthony who
opposes It. The matter was brought
before the Committee, und the Presi
dent was censured and requested to
resign, by a vote of 27 to 16.
The Atlanta Constitution bus a cu
rious way of supporting the call of
the Convention. It insists that the
less that Is said by the friends of the
Convention about the establishment
of the whipping post, the reduction

ment of tlje olc( bail law, tho better.
And yet thc VOnsthUtioh says more
about these things, us well us about
the removal of the capital, than any,
any other paper. Is It going for "the
better” or the t corse in this matter ?
Tmf flertSd correspondent at Ht.

Russia has 300,000 men on the Dan

and 50,000 of tessln Asia Minor. Both
sides exhibit a weakness in skilled
general* and the (tosition in Rouma

"DKHUCItTIC lU TV. ”
Wg direct attention to an article
under this caption which we oopy
from the N. I. WorhL It Is the right
kind of talk, and we o*Jy regret that
more of It ha*not come to us from
the N'orth, and coiqe before the
pewillafilios Of the present political
h!mui ion could suggest the suspicion
that It was Inspired more by appre
hension than by stern devotion to
principle. The World, no doubt, Is
somewhat disturbed by the silly re
ports that the Democrats of the South
are looking to new political alliances
and are ready to make terms with
a party that can offer 1 them
offices and subsidies. It need
not entertain such apprehen
sions. I: Is true that the Democrats
of the South had to witness with cha
grin a disposition by tbelr Northern
political allies to sacrifice their
rights and interests, on one or two
occasions during the late Presiden
tial contest, with a view to placating
Northern Republicans. It is also
true that that canvass was not con
ducted, as It should have been at the
North, by giving duo prominence to
the principles and measures so clear
ly set forth in the World's article.
But the Southern people, while not
ing this with regret, could not Ignore
the fact that It was the hostility to
wards us of the Northern Radicals
that caused timidity of the Northern
Democrats. The one party were our
enemies In feeling and party Inter
est; the other were friendly, but not
willing to risk too much at home by
actively championing our constitu
tional rights.
We said, in a lute notice of the
Administration prospectus for the
revival of the Whig party, that Mr.
Hayes’Administration hud done well
l C ‘abandoning the practice of mili
tary interference with the local gov
ernments of the South, which is very
good as far as It goes. But the En
forcement act still stands on the
statute book, and while it stands the
Southern States and people are de
nied an equal status in the Union.”'
We are glad to find the World calling
so energetically for the repeal of that
act and of other measures and usur
pations which put the brand of polit
ical inequality upon the Southern
States and people.
We now realize the polltiotti ad
vantages of a “solid South.” It en
courages the Northern Democrats to
demand the repeal uf ail the invidi
ous legislation from whlcWwo have
suffered indignity and wrong;and it
constrains the Republicans to pro
pose compromises and offer conces
sions. We have #u-ly to muintain
the unity in defence (ft our rights to
which political oppression has driven
us, und we will secure all that the
constitution entities us to or u fully
restored Union comprehends.
UKV UAHIIUN mUll ATEU
Mr. Alex W. Harris, a member of
the Legislature of New Jersey, pifts
to rest another misrepresentation of
Geu. Gordon by tbe extremists.
They churged that Gen. Gordon hud
written a letter or letters to Demo
cratic members of the New Jersey
Legislature, urging them to elect
Min. Walter Phelps, a Republican,
Uuited Stales Seuator, wheu be knew
that the Democrats had a majority lu
the Legislature and could elect one
of their own party. Mr. Harris dis
poses of this charge by quoting from
Gen. Gordon’s letters, as follows:
Under date of Jan. 15, Senator Gor
don says: “To be brief, let me say
that if insurmountable difficulties
present themselves, if you have no
sim-lal obligations upon you to sup
port auy oue else for the Seuate, I
shall be glad to have you give ycur
aid to the Hon. Wm. Walter Phelps.”
Again he says In reference to the
saruo subject: “These reflections
are suggested, not so much by my
own high regard for Mr. Phelps’
character as by the extremely uncer
tain condition of your political af
fairs in New Jersey.”
It will be noted that Gon. Gordon
only advised the support of Phelps
in the event of the existence of “in
surmountable difficulties” in the
way of the election of a Democrat—
the Demoorats having only a majori
ty of one in the Legislature.
Mr. Harris is a son of Walton B.
Harris, Esq., of Girard, Ala., aud is
known to many of our citizens. He
is a Democrat..
TUK CONVKXTIOX.
Editor Times: The letter of your
correspondent “G.”, while it states
facts and explains tho present de
pendent condition of the agricultu
rists, does not prove by any argu
ment tbut the Convention should not
be held, but does prove that men
from other vocations as well as law
yers should be selected as delegatee.
We hope ”G.” will be sent.
Gn. Toombs’ letter to Hon. N. L.
Trammell shows conclusively the
necessity for a Convention, and maps
out briefly all the work necessary.
Gen. Toombs should be sent there;
all his life has been spent in pulling
down existing government and pro
moting schism ; now, none so capa
ble as he, in all this commonwealth,
to build up the decayed industries,
and remodel the judiciary system of
our State. If he succeeds in persuad
ing the Convention to adopt his ideas
as described in the above mentioned
letter, it will be intlnitely the most
valuable act of his eventful life.
The result will gradually remove all
the evils complained of by “G. ”
That the latter has cause for com
plaining of the artificial inequlities
now existing oau not be doubted.
There is no just reason why cotton
should be stored cheaper in Liver
pool, where land by the square foot
is worth more than it is here, ware
house and all, by the square acre.
When planters were out of debt,
what did.it cost to store cotton? The
answer to this question will suggest
answers to all the objections urged
k y ..Q The oondition of the farm
ers is one of the proofs that we need
a Constitutional .Convention to lop
off the bad and retain the good.
I F. F.
IS FAVOR OF NOMINATION*.
Neak Box Hfkinub, I
Chattahoochee County, j
l>ear Times The time is rapidly
approaching when we will be called
upon to ballot for delegates to the
Constitutional Convention, and itap
pears to me that our dUtriot lags be
hind all others In suitable organiza
tion. We have deemed it of great
Importance heretofore to unite upon
that party cundldato who could inus
.ter the greatest following in bttr sev
eral counties, In order that our
strength might, not be frittered away
upon too many aspirants and there
by suffer a minority party to prevail.
Thut the wisdom of such method is
no less applicable in this Instance,
cun be easily shown. There seems
to tie a settled conviction amongst
the voters of our Henatorial District
that Muscogee is entitled to three
delegates, and Chattahoochee und
Marion one each. Now if this be
the desired apportionment of repre
sentation, its achievement is in the
highest degree improbuble without
county nominations, and indeed it is
almost ceitain that Muscogee will
furnish the eutire five. If Muscogee
will nominate three delegates, Marlon
and Chattahoochee will consider the
claims of none others who may of
fer in your county, and the same
practice upon the part of your people
towards the candidates of Marion
and Chattahoochee, settles beyond
question that the representation will
be as we wish it; otherwise there will
be a far different result, for Muscogee
will have at least five candidates,
and there will be litile reason to an
tagonize each other, as it is not only
possible but probable that, all mav be
elected, “everal candidates will
ariso in each of the other two coun
ties- perhaps as many as from Mus
eogee —and dlspairing of success
without help from there, they will
each bargain with the different can
didates of that county, tuid will re
ceive but a small support therefrom,
individually, while all are swelling
the vote of Muscogee candidates.
The outcome of such a proceeding is
inevitably the discomfiture of all
others. Your candidates, acting Ui
tbo utmost good faith, could not pre
vent such a result. Nominations
create responsibility, give
intelligent guidance, and insure
equitable apportionment,and to these
we should address ourselves without
delay.
Permit me u word with regard to
another matter. We ure threatened
with candidates of qutle another
sort and of quite a nondescript
character—candidates for Conven
tion 3olely for tlie reason that they
oppose Convention. That is to say,
because none jshould bo elected,
therefore elect theni. I can see no
possible place for auy such, as the
opponents of Convention have their
remedy In their ballot, and if a Con
vention be called, then opponent
candidates, if elected, will assemble
with the rest of them, and from the
very nature of their position will be
unavailable! for any of the purposes
of their election. There must be a
majority in favor, or no Convention
will be called, and these must go in
very small force, and meeting a body
to which they have declared them
selves hostile, they cannot have the
least influence upon its conduct or in
its councils. They will be an ele
ment of cost und powerless for ser
vice-a very mockery of the pre
cepts of those economists who elect
them.
Organization was never more ne
cessary, und I give no individual
opinion only when I say should be
insisted upon. It is absolutely
essential to the counties of Marion
and Chattahoochee that they nomi
nate oue candidate each upon whom
they may ooneeotrato their votes,
else they will have learned too late
that they are ingloriously bulldozed.
Such an action would be fairly met
by Muscogee, und she would indeed
lead it did she but know the wide
spread dissatisfaction and distrust by
others of non-action.
Truly yours,
W. J. W.

Editor Times: Two communion
tions have receceutly appeared in
the Columbus Times, the one signed
"M. L. H..” the other “Marion,”
which doubtless emanated from the
saute author; although “he changed
his dress, we know his voice.” This
witer assumes to speak for Marlon
couuty. In ttiis we think lie is mis
taken as to the views of the people of
Marion, either as to calling a conven
tion or the persons whom the
people wish to represent them in the
Convention. The writer is well
known, and it is known that to those
who are opposed to a convention
that he represents himself as op
posed to if, aud to those who are
in favor of a Convention, he says
that ho is also in favor of it.
And this action on the part of this
fruitful writer reminds us of a certain
industrious little bug which one meets
in the lanes aud bye-ways on a hot
summer’s day. The question is did
you meet it or overtake it ? It has not
yet been decided. The people of
Marion are perfectly able to decide
for themselves whom they wish to
represent them, und they have not yet
so far forgotten themselves, or their
dignity, or honor, as to apply to one
who hid behind a pair of green goggles
to save himself from service even In
Joe Brown’s “malishy,” to direct
them in this matter.
This wonderful writer asserts in
round terms, that “a large majority
of the voters of Marion county are
opposed to all lawyers being sent to
the Convention.” It is well known
thatsnch a statement is in direct op
position to the truth, for the writer
himself mentions the names of those
lawyers whom, he says, the people
will vote for. How does this oouiport
i with his broad assertion ? The peo
ple of Marion county are perfectly
willtpg to vote for Messrs. Peabody,
Ingram and Bl&ndford, or any other
good and worthy men from Musco
gee, without regard to whether they
are lawyers or not. Men whom the
people of Musoogee are willing to
trust, Marion is willing to have to
represent her. But, at all events, the
people of Marlon will never apply to
one who is opposed to a Convention,
to dictate to them for whom they
must east their votes,
Tazewell.
THE IWKVKMITWS.
“Pro* und ( on*.”
Editor Times: In your columns of
yesterday appeared an article under
the the signature of “Harris,” under
the head of Pros und Cons, and in
which he says: “In Muscogee, the
leading men whoareugulustthcCon
vention, are Carey J. Thornton and
Wm. D. Trammell.” I do not claim
to be the leader of the opposition to
the Convention, I opitoso the Conven
tion because I do uot think that the
organic law of a nation or .State
ought to be changed, unless there be
a necessity Tor it. I do not think
that any necessity exists why the
present Constitution should be chan
ged by a convention of the people.
On two public occasions I have given
my views wtiy the Constitution
should not be changed by a conven
tion ; not with a view or purpose of
becoming a leaner of the opposition
to the Convention ‘ but did so at the
requestor my fellow-citizens, which
I would do upou any mutter in which
the public are interested without re
gard to the views of other men. If
there is any necessily why tile pres
ent Constitution should be changed
these is do reason why it could not
be done through the Legislature in
in tlie manner provided by the Con
stitution; then tlie people would
know what changes and amendments
were to be made, and this could be
done, with far less expense. It may
be that Muscogee will poll a majori
ty for the Convention, but this is by
no means eertain .arid the opponents
of the Convention arc not the least
alarmed, abd in my opinion they do
not intend to be bullied, they intend
to think and act for themselves and
not wait to see who are the pros and
oons. Ido not agree witli “Harris,”
that the most powerful argument for
airy policy, is who are the pros and
who are the eons. Every man should
think and act for himself and uot.
wait to see, who is upon this or thut
side, and then take position in ac
cordance with the number or the
standing of men |hat are in favor or
opposed to a measure. As for my
self, I shall never smell around and
follow other mens’ tracks, for no
other reason than that they made
them, and so soon as "Harris” will
think and act for himself, without
regarding to tlve position and ideas
of other man, then I will agree
with him that he lias “more sense
than he has credit for having,” but
until then I insist that he has credit
for all he is entitled to, and more.
Respectfully,
Cabey J. Thornton.
