Resolutions of the Georgia Democratic Eek.
ec1tive Committee ON Negro Suffrage.
ATLANTA, Oct. 10, 1868.
The Democratic Executive Committee of Georgia
published the following to-day
Whereas 1t has been represented by republican
speakers IN the present canvass that the Southern
people are in favor OF the re-estabShment of slavery
In their respective States, and Will commence by de-
prlvng the blacks Of the right OF suffrage. For the
purpose OF meeting this allegation and giving it posi-
tive denial
BE 1t resolved by the Central Committee of the
democratic party In Georgia. representing the people
OF the state, that the charge Is unequivocaly alse
that for evidence that they do not desire to reestab
lsh slavery and could not effect it If they would,
refer to the fact that this State has assened to and
ratifed the amendment to the constitution OF the
United States forever abOishing slavery and invol-
shall be legally c0nvicted that we reiterate the posi-
lions taken by this committee In late address and
IN the report OF the Committee the State Of the
Republic, adopted by the House Of Representatives
In the Legislature OF this State on the Goth
ultimo; that we also endorse the address of
General Robert F. Lee and others in response the
letter from General Rosecrans; that we acquesce In
the present status OF the colored race among and
will protect that to the full extent OF power
in the exercise or the right of suffrage secured to
them by the constitution OF the United States and
amendments thereto and the constitution and laws
OF this State. Il. q. CABANISS, Chairman.

The Blairs have much to answer for If hall
that is said of them be true. They assisted
Van Buren, in 1S4S in organizing the disrup-
ton Of the old democratic party; they assisted
in organizing the republican party; they got
Frank into Congress and Montgomery into
Lincoln's Cabinet as republicans; but the radi-
Gals got Frank out of Congress and Montgom-
cry out Of the Cabinet, and from that point we
hnd them returning to the democratic church.
Now from the Manhattan Club 1t is proclaimed
that General Frank Blair, the democratic can
didate for Vice President, was the fatal mis-
take Of the Tammany Convention; that his
Brodhead letter has knocked all the late cleo
lions wrong side up; that in roping in Wade
Hampton and all the Southern rebel leaders
as expounders of the democratic faith this
Marplot Blair has fattened out Seymour fat
as pancake; that Blair is the Jonah who has
brought the storm upon the ship and that he
must go overheard; but that, to make all sure,
Seymour must walk the plank likewise, and
another captain and mate must be appointed.
Rank mutiny in the midst Of hurricane. Is
this the way to save the drifting ship?
