THE CONSTITUTIONAL CON
VENTION.
The people are already beginning to
discuss (.ho Convention question, and it
is perhaps well that no other impor*
tant question now confronts them, as
their deliberations are more likely to
lead to a satisfactory disposition of the
matter at the proper time. As the
time for voting on this question is the
12th of June, the people will have
time to discuss between ihemselves the
advantages and disadvantages of a Con
vention at this time, and also 'the mer
its of delegates] to represent]* them in
case a Convention is held. We have
taken no distinct posi ion on the ques -
tion as yet, but will do so at the proper
We advise the people now, how
ever, to cousider the matter in their
minds, in their considerations looking
to the good of the State in the future.
It is claimed by those who favor a Con
vention that there are many changes
necessary for the good of the State, and
these changers must be made before
Georgia can expeot to prosper as she
might, and that the present Constitu
tion was framed by carpet-baggers, and
contains objectionable features which
Democrats might remedy, while those
who oppose the Convention do so on the
ground of the expense it would be to
the State, and that the changes neces
sary could be male by amendment.
Where delegates are voted for they
should be the best men the country af
lords and not those who seek office, and
are unit to serve the people. It is im*
portant that the people begin to re®
volve the sibject in their minds.
The editor of the New York Sun,
rightly states it when in referring to
Ilayes and the South, he says : ‘‘The
sop thrown to the South will make no
more impression than a pebble cast into
the broad Atlantic. The oonth asks
nothing but to be let alone, and to be
released from the grasp of plunderers
*’ho have eaten its substance for twelve
years and carried off all they could
steal. The people'who have been thus
swindled and outraged, will be the last
to accept offers from the hands of the
Fraudulent President. There will be a
few who will sell their birthright for a
mess of pottage, but the great body of
the people will spurn the bribe.”

OUR WASHINGTON LETTER.
An Eari.y Adjournment of the
Senate —Kellogg’s Case to be
Postponed What Democratic
Senators are Doing—The Gam
blers Once More —Col. Mosly
—Etc , etc.
Washington, D. C. Mar. 12,1877.
Editor Calhoun limes :
It is not now likely that tho Senate
will remain in session long. Ihe con
firmation of the cabinet was the only
act necessary to give the new President
all the power he needs in carrying oat
his policy. Subordinate officers may
remain or be dismissed, as seems ad
visable. It was thought the Senate
would seat Kellogg before adjournment,
and doubtless such would have been
the case if Gov. Hayes had not signi
fied, by word and deed, a desire that
the case be not acted upon at present.
Kellogg’s case and Corbin’s, of South
Carolina, will go over, and the adminis
tration hope is that before the next ses
sion of Congress affairs in the South
ern States will have assumed such
shape, under the liberal policy of the
President as to admit of a decision sat ß
isfactory to all.
The Democrats k of the Senate very
properly refused to take any caucus ac
tion instructing Senators to vote for or
against confirmation of appointees or
making support or opposition to any
part of Ilayes’ policy at this time, a
party matter. Indeed if a stray fig is
found on the Republican thistle, there
seems to be no good reason why the
honest Democrats should not rejoice
and applaud. It is not likely the fruit
of that kind will be so abundant as to
deprive him of the rewards of honest
husbandry. But so far the Democrat
ic Senators have not even gone socially
to the White House. They do not of
course believe Hayes the fairly elected
President, bat he is President, and I
6ee nothing to be gained by churlish
social neglect. There will be, it is
said, plenty of pleasant inducements
held out by the mistress of the Execu
tive Mansion to bring even President
elect-Tilden to terms.
Speaking of Mrs. Hayes I may tell
how Mrs. Newman and others called
uron her and requested that wines and
liquors be dispensed with on all public
occasions at the White House, and that
Mrs. Ilayes (who never drinks wine)
replied that though she might believe
in such abstinence, and she apprecia
ted the n otives which induced the re*
quest, yet she would not attempt to dic
tc te on such a subject to the President.
No member of tbe President’s family
drinks wine, but it has always been a
portion of the entertainments at the
White House. Probably this adminit
tration will not witness any change in
that raspect.
On jesterday morning tbe police
raided the principal gambling saloon
here, and captured forty or fifty people,
among them an assistant Secretary of
the Treasury under the last administra
tion, and another man who narrowly
escaped appointment to a high judicial
office within the last month.
Col. Mosly called upon the President
on Saturday and had a pleasant inter
view. Col. M. had the ear of Grant
as to Virginia appointments, to as great
an extent as any other native of tho
State.
The story is reviewed that Vice Pres
ident Wheeler will visit the Sooth at
an early day, and will be accompanied
by Representative Foster, of Ohio, and
Senator Hoar. Let him, when he gets
to ].( nisi ana, read over a report made
by one Congressman Wra. A. Wheeler,
a few years ago, in which it is said
that if ever a Presidential election
should depend upon the vote of Louisi
ana as manipulated by the Returning
Board, the people of the country would
not submit to the inauguration of the
successful candidate.
That report is just in point and time
ly. The object of the journey as an
nounccd, is to gain familiarity with af
fairs in Louisiana aud South Carolina,
but doubtless the men will go for the
purpose of eliciting an exhibition of
any cordiality that may be felt in that
section towards the new departure of
the Republican party.
Yours truly, Nemo.
Senator Gordon’s Views.
Senator Gordon, of Georgia, has been
interviewed on the political situation,
aud, as might be expected, his views,
are correct aud conclusions sound. If
there were more Democrats'in Congress
like Senator Gordon the Radical scheme
for stealing the Presidency would ave
come to nought. The interview was as
follows :
“I never doubted,” said Senator Gor
don, “and I am now absolutely assured
of tho fact (and from Republican sour
ces, too,) that, if the Democrats had
from first to last presented rn unbroken
front, and given notice of their inexor
able purpose of resisting to the very
lust extremity any attempt to seat a
fraudulent President, the Republicans
would never have attempted to seat
Ilayes. I know this to be so. Tbe un
certain policy of the Democrats, the re
ported divisions in the ranks, and their
alleged willingness to submit peacefully
to any usurpation, encouraged the Pe
publicans to such an extent that the
electoral bill became a necessity. Now,
mark me; if the Democrats had but
pressed an unbroken front the Repub
licans would never have gone to ex
treme measures, and tbe electoral kill
would never been thought of.
What course, then, would the Dem
ocrats have pursued ? Why simply this :
The House would have thrown out
Florida and Louisiana, and if the Sen>
ate did not follow suit, tbe House would
have either elected Tilden outright, or
would have provided a bill ordering a
new election next November, making
some decent Republican acting Presi
dent until that time. Of course the
new election would have resulted in
Tilden’s triumph. But I believe that
the Senate would have voted to throw
out Louisiana, and possibly Florida, if
there had been no Electoral Commis
sion ; if the Democrats had been de
termined and undivided from the first.
But that is ajl past, and we must
look to the future. Hayes' prompt dis
posal of the offensive article in tbe
Ohio State Journal prevented the inau
guration of movements that will keep
him out of the White House What
will become of the Democracy iu four
years ’{ A grand, sweeping victory
awaits them, beyond the shadow of a
doubt, if they will remain in ranks, and
keep the party intact. The country
will repudate the fraud by which the
Republicans have established their
usurpation just as surely as tbe time ar
rives for them to vote. Our only dan
ger is this : That Hayes by glittering
offers, by really conservative and liberal
action, will disintegrate our Southern
Democracy, and put us in danger of
losing some of the Southern States.—
Such a prospect as this would demoraD
ize our friends in the North. The Re
publicans will make herculean efforts to
capture Southern Democrats and de
bauch the Southern party. Ilis friends
have already petitioned Grant to “hold
his hands off” of Louisiana and Carols
na, and leaye the solution of those prob
lems to Hayes. Their object is plain
It is intended that the new Piesident
shall have all the applause
that the recognition of Hampton and
Nicholls government shall win. You
will perceive at once that his advantage
will be a tremendous one The full and
prompt recognition of tho honesv gov
ernment of those two States will give
him an opportunity to signalize the
opening of his administration that few
Presidents, if any President ever had.
A judicious distribution of the offices
in his gift among the Southern Demo
crats is relied upon to further or com
plete this disintegration. it is plain
that no Southern Democrat should ac
cept office under Hayes. It shall be
my purpose to advise all who approach
me upon the subject to have nothing to
do with it. Our only safety and. it
seems to me our only honor, is in/iold
ing ourselves absolutely aloof from this
fraudulent Administrator. If this is
done we shall reap a glorious harvest
four years from now.
The most horrible result, it seems to
me, that can come from a division of
party io the South is the demoralizing
aud miserable scuffle that will ensue
over the negro vote. It will be a -sad
day for the South when we see decent
white men arrayed against each other,
and engaged iu a deadly struggle, the
prize of which is a batch of ignorant
and corrupt negro vote r s. I hope and
pray that the party will preserve its or
ganization and save its honor. And I
belieye it will. I have no idea that
Hayes or any other man ca.i buy the
sentiment ot the South with a few p°t
tv offices, or debauch with patronage a
party that has proved its heroism and
demonstrated its fortitude ana purity as
the Southern Democracy has. — FFasA

New Orleans, March 12.—-The
Nicholls Legislature to day adopted the
following :
Wherea*, The inaugural address of
the present Executive of the nation iu
dicates a fixed determination to restore
harmony to the people of the South by
submitting a policy of pacification for
one of coercion, and by recognizing the
right of said people of the looal self
government, free from Federal interfer
ence ; therefoie be it
Resolved , &c That we accept this
declaration of the National Executive
of non-intervention in the affairs of the*
State as a happy augury for the future
as made in good faith and the true spir
it of the Constitution, and that this
General Assembly W’ll earnestly co-op
erate with Pres dent Ilajes in every ef
fort to restore confidence and fraternal
relations among the whole people of this
great country; and to this end it
it pledges all the power and influence at
its command to secure the great object
for which governments were constructed
—viz ,to guarantee protection of life,
liberty and property to every human be
