OOLVItBVai SATURDAY JANUARY 10, 1874. The New HatujAhiro Demoowy, io their StAto Convention on NVednondsy, deolarrd their adherence to the Cincin nati and Baltimore platform* of 1872. Special electiouH for members of the Legislature of Florida were lately held in eight counties. The returns show a Re publican gain of oue Representative in these counties, and make no change in the party division of the Senate. It is surmised by the Now York Jlerald end other papers that Gen. Serrano, now acting Chief IOxecutive of Spain, favors the succession of Don Alfonso, son of Isabella, as King, and that he may work aeoretly to bring about a restoration of the monarchy. A movement is on foot among the Ma- aonio Lodges of Philadelphia in relation to iuvitii g the Grand Masonic Lodges of (bo world to send representatives to form u Congress to meet st the Great Centen nial Exhibilon on tbs ttb day of July, 1870, for the purpose of revision of the work of the Order. The Trustees of the Internal Improve ment Fund of Florida have again placed on the market the lands granted to the Jacksonville and St. Augustine ltaitroAd Company, and the lands conveyed to tho Southern Inland Navigation and Improve ment Company. A late decree of tho United Statt s Circuit Court restored those lands to tho companies. The New York livening Host (Republi can; thinks tint public opinion, as recent ly ascertained, imperatively calls for a fatal repeal of the Salary act of tho lost session of Congresft, as fsr as it onn bo constitutionally rcpialed, and that re trenchment, and not increased taxation or debt, is tho way out of tho financial diffi culties of the Government. “New Constitution Dick” is tho name which an enthUHinstic reformer in Penn sylvania 1ms given to his son, born on tho day on which tho new Constitution of that Stuto was voted on by the people. If the boy proves as great an improve ment on his dud uh the now Constitution is said to bo on tho old, the name will not bo inappropriate. NS ity did Don liuller move the recom mitment oj the Civil Rights bill, when its supporters woro evidently iu such a hurry to pus* it ? Ho said that it was for the purpose of correcting some of its “ab- siudiiies"—au expression not sutUoiently definite to iuforui us whether ho meant absuidiiicn in principle or iu phraseology men ly. it appears to ubouud iu both, and if properly and thoroughly overhaul ed in committee, it would bo a very dif ferent thing on tin ro appoamuoo. Tiib Washington correspondent of the New Yolk Sun % writing January 1, nays: "Tho Treasury Depart moot stahles is not tho o.dy ustab.ishmont of tho kind boro for tim benefit of oillciala. There are two stable* for horses at the Capitol in which tho teams of Senators and Ropro Montatives ure kept, the expense being charged to the contingent funds of the Heuato and House. Tho drivers And footmen of Congressmen are placed on the roll* of the two houses, and paid in amendments as will give each county a delegate without Rwelliug the number to five or six hundred. This mode of amend ing the constitution# adopted under the pressure of “Reconstruction" has been successfully resorted to in North Carolina and West Virginia recently. In North Carolina eight distinct amendments were at one election submitted to the people, voted upon separately, and all adopted, to tho essential bettering of tho Constitu tion. Why can we not for the present pursue the same coarse iu Georgia, and thus obtaiu such amendments as may be urgently needed ? As to the question of removing the seat of government, which appears to be stir ring up the most interest now, that is a matter which, we think, had .better be determined by tho popular vote before a Convention is hold, for it would intro duce into a new Constitution a local con test which would prevent a full and fair expression of the popular will upon ques tions of more general importance. Let that vexed question be settled first, by direct submission to the people, and the inakiog of a good and uceeptable Consti tution will he much easier for having gotten rid of it. —An “anti-grab league" has been form ed in Caldwell, Ohio, and it moves for a national “anti-grab convention" at Chica go, on the 7th of May. The idea meets with favor, and the convention promises to be largo. Back pay members of Con gress will please take notice and govorn themselves accordingly. the v«y. WHOSK FAULT ? In many parts of Alabama farmers are compelled to sell their stock—tbeir draught animals— in order to keep their families from starving; so that the approaching spring will #e# them not only without seed, bnt the means of working their ground. In tho counties immediately around Mont- gomery tho laborers are flying to the West, and plantations in one year are re duced in value two hundred per cent. The planters are disheartened, and for getting their hopes of wealth and freedom from debt, are now absorbed with the oue thought of preservation for them selves and little ones. A stranger hear ing of this would at once come to tho con clusion that tho land had been visited by a famine, or that Homo climatic chango or govornmeutal tyranny bad rendered the country nniuhabitahlo or untenable; but he would be mistaken. Visit tho sec tions now so indicative of poverty, and from which the people aro flying in Ala bama and Georgia, and you will llnd they aro the places above all others whore na ture seoma to havo been most lavish of her gifts. A sky whore tho heat of the tropics and the cooler atmoHphore of high er latitudes blend to make a climate unsur passed, where tho winters are soft and balmy as a Northern spring, and the sum mers toned by tho winds from neighbor ing wators so that sun strokes nro nn- hourd of, and men cau work out doors dressed in the same garbs iu July that they wear in December. A land so gently undulating as to bo natu rally well drained, and whore no morasses breed pestilonco. A land of navigablo rivers, flne streams and cloar spriugs, by whose margins tho finest timbers of com nierce grow in their unrivalled excellence A bind with a soil so nearly iuexhaustiblo in its fertility that only sinful prodigality could woakon it; where tho Northern corcnls and Southern fruits onn be raised with profit side byaido, and whore a plow could bo driven through tho rich earth overy month in tbo year. This is tho place where poverty has now tnkon up bor abode, and above which desolation is brooding. There has been no cause for famine in this land as a stranger might MiippoAO, for wherever food was planted tho harvest has repaid tho laborer; but tho meu who own tbo land, in tho face of the touchings of Providence, plantod their rich Holds in one crop, behoving tboy could buy their moat and broad cheaper in tho Northwest, imagining thoy could clothe their families, pay their debts and lay by money by putting in ovory acre iu cotton, and to make their success greater thoy ran iu debt for tho very food of their families and bauds. But the cotton crop failed, and, liko an Egyptian plague desolation is following to reap the siuful harvest of improvidence. It makes us sad to chronicle theso facts, but wo would havo the lesson thoy teach siuk deep in the heart of ovory man who lives by tho cultivation of tho soil. Until tho peoplo of this cottou belt soil more oach year than thoy buy, thoy will grow poorer and poorer. One by one thoy will leave or I die out, uud nature will redeem her do- mnin and hold it in trust for a people u who will oouio to possess and prosper by obedience to her laws. Thousands who , 1,1 huvo to buy their food this spring are wisely preparing to make their farms self- sustaining, even if cotton should ho a porpetual failure ; and there are others, wiso in thoir own oonceit, like tho man of w hom Solomon spoke, and i ~ ~ * tt t n thoy will plant as heretofore—all cotton, j OftlCG Ct801^18i UOIIIG IBS. vO*, and so Btoal a march on their neighbors.

Tn# Cllucli couuty mooting, which passed resolutions favoring tho immediate call of a State Coiiatitutioual Convention, named the following a* oimnidorutiumi re quiring it: The prewont Constitution wa* not adopted by tho free voice of the poo- plo; tho capital justly belongs to Milledg- ville; the old judicial Hyatein, with it* shorter terms, ought to l>o returned to ; elector* should reside twelve month* iu tho State and six months iu the county ; State aid tu ntihends should he prohib ited; payment «>f the “bogus bonds" should bo prohibited by tho Constitution ; short annual sessions of the Legislature should ho provided for and tho per diem fixed at five dollars. Seven of tho so-called Ku-Klux prison ers, currried from Coosa county to Mont gomery, wore discharged on Weduosday, during the progress of the investigation before U. S. Commissioner Grosser. There wore a number of witnesses exam ined on that day. The case has no rela tion whatever to party politics. Tho uXein says that “tho whole thing grew out of u land trade, in whichsomo had feelings were engendered—an arbitration which did not give satisfaction ; malicious pros edition, iu which the crime of incest i* hinted at ; a few uniuteligible slips of paper posted hero and there about tho premises of llobinsou, tar and feathers, orders to quit the community or take the oonsoqnenceH, shot at with cow peas, ku- blux gov. us, and n mass of heterogonoous twaddle in which tho b gal acumen of for ty Phil.ibdphia lawyeis would be exhaust ed in making h oVar thing of it. The l':ke county “Grangers," at a late meeting, passed the following resolutions: Resolved, That the Grangers and farm ers of Pike rocommeud tho farmers not to plant more than one-third of thoir crops tho ensuing year iu cottou. Resolved, That wo recommend our farmers to use more economy in tho uso of fertilizers, and if possible to pay the cash fur the same. We further recom mend that they use a liberal portion of it on their corn. Resolved, 1 hat wo deprecate this whole sale bonding for provisions. We farther recommend that the Legislature modify or repeal the lieu law as early as possible, as wo bolieve it should ho stricken from tho statute within twelve months. Resolved, That the homestead is en tirely loo large, aud should be modified. We, therefore, call the attention of tiie proper uQtboriiies to tt. —-«• —Tbe Savannah Advertiser says ; It is among the queen thing* that Caleb Cush ing, now to bo Minister to 8pain, wa* President of tbe Charleston Convention in whioh Ben Butler oast sixty votes for JtfferKoo Davis for nomination to tbe Presidency of the United States, and that atihu time U. S. Grant wa* a tanner at GaleLH, Illinois. And ail this was less than fourteen yoar* ago. —Thj greatest depth of tbs Pcoiflo Uoean, between California and China, is •aid to be aboc. two-und-s-half mils# These narrow-minded men, like tho gam-I biers nt faro, may win once or twice, but ] just *o surely as they continue ruin will ooiuo, und the fall will be ull tho greater for the tempting promises of success. The time has ooiuo for our farmers to consider the iuipnidouco of depending on one crop, aud when they must carefully consider tho capabilities of thoir soil and climate, and use both for tho production of tho greatest possible variety of crops. When this course is persisted in the good effect* of it will bo ween in tho greater comfort of the farmer and tho higher value of his land* ; nnd lubor instead of louviug will flock bore for profitable em ployment. Till: FOXYF.XTIOX «*i r..STION Tho repeated failures to get up public meotiugs in Augusta uud Athens, to con sider the question of calling a Constitu tional Convention, show that it is a mat ter which is not engaging much popular interest, except in certain localities. Wo bolieve that no large meeting to consider the subject has yet boon held, except iu Wilkes county, and wo imngino that the opportunity of honriug a speech from.Oon. Toombs was tho chief attraction that call ed tho people out on that occasion. It is manifestly uuwiHO to pres* the question when the popular indifferonco is so appa rent, and we thiuk tho sliui meetiugs iu Augusta and Atheus acted very proporly in declining to express an opinion. A small meeting iu Clinch county is re ported as having acted in a more positive manner—in favor of a Convention. Clinch is oue of tho small counties, which would oithor bo denied sepoiato representation in tho Convention, or its delegate would have a very small share of power in a body composed of five or six hundred dol egate*. Uorbap* its meeting failed to take into its deliberations tho fact that the del egates are required by the new Constitu tion to be apportioned to population, and not to couuty organizations. Several of our exohangos, opposed to the immediate convocation ol a Conven tion, havo directed atteutiou to the alter native which wo presented in a late article—that of giving up separate county representation or calling a Convention bo large as to make it an extraordinarily nu merous and expensive body. No paper in favor of an early Convention has show n how the difficulty can be avoided, or has iodicated a preference hetweeu the two alternatives. We do not believe that there is auy escape from this difficulty. It may be asked, is there no relief from difficulties which the Convention of IdC8 interposed with the evident design of preventing amendments of its Coostitu* tion ? We cannot see any, except a resort for the present to the other mode of ameudmeut—that of submitting the propositions separately to a direot vote of the people—and in tAw xcag effecting eueh T HE Auiuittl Mooting of tlio Htockhohh'rs of tbo Ucoralft Homo In-uraure Con.pony will ho hi‘1'1 ol tin* Company’* offico nt 3 o'cloi k j*. m. «»«» Tu.-rt.liiy, thu 20th ot' January, 1874.
