An Untimely “Boom” Squelched. - ■— ( 4«gu««i Evening Nev ■ ] Tin- promt, generally throughout the HtnUi, in *|*-riking out very plainly on the subject ot the Gubernatorial campaign. The Home (Courier alway a honest, eoea fit to remark that for aome time |MUit there have bean intimation* that certniff parties coi • tern plated availing themaelvea of the occasion of the unveiling ofthestatue tn Senator Hill, the visit of Jefferaon Davis, and the gathering of Confede rate soldier* in Atlanta, to "boom" a political movement. Notwithstanding the repetition of such rumors, we could hardly believe that such a purfHiae was entertained, or if en tertained, that it could be carried out. It was eo manifestly impro|>er and reprehenaible that we did not think the good sense of the people would permit it. We are glad to know that there was no such demonstration, and that the only attempt to get up one (a report of which w« copy from the Constitution) was a failure That attempt was made in behalf of General Cordon a gentleman in direct antagonism with Mr. Hill upon ques tions of State politics. \te can ap preciate the feeling of delicacy which constrained Gen. Gordon to withhold hia sanction from such a movement at that time and under eiiating cir cumstances. It would have been a flagrant perversion of the proper ob ject of the occasion and an imposition on the )>eoplo who had been congre gated for quite a different pur| o«. It must also have been painful to Mr. Davis, who went to Atlanta solely to pay a tribute to the memory of hia dead friend, to witness the preversion of the assembly which his presence hud attracted into a gathering so- the promotion of the (silitical aspirations of men who antagonized Mr. Hill while he lived, and whose combina tions for ruling the State would have found in him a stu.dy oppouci tis still in life In this connection we deem it ap propriate to reproduce Mr. Hills estimate of the efforts of politicians to boost tlieir favorites into places by a "hip ami hurrah" over their services in very dissimilar field*. We make an extract from his address before the Southern Historical Society at Atlanta, delivered February 18th, 1874: "\V« must elevate the atatenianship of the country. In all republics* an imbecile statesmanship has succeeded civil war, and we have not escaped the scourge. In order to elevate our statesmanship, two things, in my opinion, are indispensable. In the first place, our people must abandon the insane habit of placing men in high civil positions suuply because of their military talents or success. General lx*e was right. It is contrary to the very genius mid safety of re publican institutions, to place their civil administration in the keeping of men of military aptitude and training Brave fighting is no evidence of able statesmanship. It is usually evidence of the very contrary. Otherwise, Captain Jack was the foremort states man of this age, and, instead of lieing hanged, ought to have been made President or Senator for life. If this habit shall not cease, we shall not have a civil siatesimm for President this generation, lu Congress, too, Wt have generals, mid colonels, and captain*, and lieutenant*, sufficient to make a small army, and scarcely statesmen enough to form a good committee."
