GEoRGIA.--By the following, il appears Georgia
begins TO find that position in the Wbg ranks not The
proper one tor her.
A VOICE FROM GEORGIA.
EztyGa Of a k!s7 from Georgia 10 member Of Con-
greS.
~ think, upon the whole, Mr. Cay's visit will have
the effect in Georgia that his appearance in New Or
leans has twice had upon their elections His pLsence
here has failed signay failed to arouse any lg that
would bear the name Of enthusiasm, much latitude
as that phrase has taken in political parlstce of late
years, lthashad the effect upon The De, nocracy to
make them united and firm, All divisers Of opinion
originating from diversity OF choice in candidate, are
now lost in the strong sentiment of "ANY BODY But
CLAY" The first movements of Congress- during this
session on the Sst rule and the fear that they would
falter in the revision ofthe tariff of 1912 para!yzed the
action Of our party here. But now, since it is obvious
that the Democracy in Congress will act up to the spirit
ofthe Baltimore democratic resolutions of 1910 we are
alive to the success Of the cause and of the candidate
whether he be our first choice or not. Such was get
Ting to be the very decided tone Of feeling before the WIS.,
it OF Mr. Clap iii now that he has come the feeling is fix
ed Democrats who, short time since knew ach o,ncr
as Calhoun or Van Bureh men, nOw recognize no dis
tinetiOns; TO be democrat and opposed to Clay and
his clique of itinerant demagogues, is sufficient to call
for hearty shake Of the hand as they meet each other
in the street or on the roadside.
am, asyoulmow, an admirer Of the personal and
political character OF John c. Calhoun and desired his
nomination for the Presidency above all other consid
erations except the suceessof the of democratic
principles; and as you know, was rather respondent
when saw that he would not be selected as the cand
date, and when saw what thought to be the equvi-
cal course Of the democratic majority in the House at
an early period of the session. Bat subsequent events
have changed the feeling Of the party into healthy
current that my dependency has yielded to the bright
hope. Even in Georgia. which the wings had looked
upon as certain for Clay there is now fair prospect of
success on cur SIDE am not much given to exaggre-
gated calculations or of coering thing by wishes
and hopes, as You, perhaps know; and do tell you
that our prospects are Frightening daily"

"This same nominee, after he had abused the conf

our county Of Richland with saddle-baes loaded with
coffin hand bills to traduce the character of Andrew
Jackson and used his utmost endeavors to circulate the
