The GEORGIA DEMocRAcY.-We notice in
several of our Northern exchanges a most re-
markable statement, TO the effect that the de-
mocracy OF Georgia are regulating the course
of their delegates a Charleston. An effort is
evidently being made to create the impression
that Georgia will send a delegation to Balti-
moro favorable to the nomination Of Mr..
Douglas. We have examined with some care
our Georgia exchanges, which are now bring
ing to us the accounts OF county meetings
throughout the State 10 send delegations to
the State convention. We have seen in the
neighborhood OF thirty county meetings; Of
them, three have expressed regret that the
delegates withdrew from the Convention, two
appointed delegates without expressing any
opinion at ALL and all he rest endorse the ac-
ton OF the delegation at Charleston in terms
OF warm and cordial approval Not one has
