STATE RIGHTS TRIUMPHANT.

The Augusta COnstitutionalist says:
"Hcwever fraudently done, the work
of the eight Radicals oRthe Electoral
Commission is clear justification of
the EXTREMIST State Rights doctrine,
far in advance of anything ever
dreamed of by Mr.. Calhoun. The
South has quasi, if not actual, tri-
umph. The platform intended for
Blaine but used for Hayes declared
that this Union is noa<s league of
States but a nation. The Electoral
Commission, backed up by three
Judges of the Supreme Bench, has
virtually established that this is a
Confederacy. and not an indissoluble
nation. By such verdict, the South
is justified, even in the house Of her
enemies, with having had an inalien-
able right to secede from the Union,
and the North committed monstrous
crime by attempting to inyalidate
that right. Hence, it no longer lies
in the mouths of Radicals to accuse
Southern men who followed the ban
ners of Lee and Jackson with being
"rsbels' or "traitors." The brand
of rebellion and treason has been af,
fixed to the toreheads of our enemies
by their own act. 1t may not be
much of poetical consolation to have
our adversary by the hip, in this
manner; but the commonest decen
cy might suggest that all bowls
against the Southern Confederacy
should be incontinentIy dried up"

unwieldly and not intended
suggesting plan for the apport'sns
ment Of delegates among the coun>
ties. And, taking the rule above
laid down, we have six members in
the House of Representatives from
this district three from Fulton, two
from Cobb and one from Clayton,
which would entitle Fulton to one
half of the representation, or four
and half delegates, and as dele~
gate is not susceptible Of division by
moities, it would be nothing but
right to give Fulton the benefit of
her big fraction and let her have
FIVE, which would leave four to be
divided between Cobb and Clayton
and Cobb having two out Of the six
representatives would be entitled to
two>sixths or one.third OF the dele
cation that is three out of the nine
delegates Clayton having one OF
the six representatives would be err
titled to one~sixth of the delegation
or one delegate and u half, and as
Clayton's fraction is small she would
have to yield her half interest in one
delegate to Fulton, which would
make up the five.
Isubmit the above in no aggress-
i've spirit, but claim that Cobb is en-
titled to three delegates as matter
of right according to all presidents
of Georgia, excep. the last two COM
ventions held by the command of
usurpers and tyrants. COBB.

IT'S DONE,

The Hayes conspirators have
thwartcd the peoples verdict at the
ballot box truth has been crushed
to the ground wrong has triumphed
over right; infamy has evershadow-
ed honor, and fraud has returned r.
B. Hayes to the Presidential chair,
once occupied by George Washing
ton, the father of our country. A
corrupt party glories in its own cor
ruption; while the judicial ermine
drips with the filth of polluted honor
and prostituted virtue, to the humil
iation of our people and the shame
and disgrace of our republican sys>
tom of government in the eyes OF all
nations. BY the grace of Joe Brad
ley of the Electoral High Joint Hum
bug, and the Ubiquitous political har>
lotry entered into by J. Madison
Wells and Eliza Pinkston, Hayes has
been declared and inagurated Presi
dent of the United States for the
next four years, and William A..
Wheeler, Vice President for the
same duration.
A dispatch from Washington City
states that Hayes took the oath of
office in the red>room of the White
House, at seven o'clock, Saturday
evening. The oath was administer
ed by Chief Justice Waite, and thus
was Hayes "'caite-d" down with the
fraud, without a witness to the
wicked act.
The inaugural address of Hayes
is profuse with weak words of doubt
full construction, indicating no posts
tive line of policy to be pursued, but
he intimates that he wishes Justice
and fair dealing, irrespective of par"
ty or geographical lines, to be done,
which if he will execute We will ac-
cord him due praise he also ex>
presses his qualification that the peo-
pie submitted quietly to his inaugu-
ration under such circumstances of
high, handed larceny; and likewise
the country in the
peaceful solution of the Presidential
muddle, which tumbled him into the
Executive chair, despite Tilden's
popular majority of two hundred and
fifty thousand votes. Honors are
easy, and if we mistake not uneasy
will be the head that wears the
crown placed there by fraud.

democratie--as small as
We, 10 claiming three delegates I'D
Cobb, do not base our calculation
upon any such false statistics. A
better criterion is the last Presidens
tial election. The total vote Of Full
ton county last November was
6,518. The total vote of Cobb, at
the same election, was 3,2O9.--
Counting five of population as rep-
resented by one votsr--thc usual
com would make the pop>
ulation of Fulton but little over dou>
BILE that of Cobb. Therefore she
should have but little over double
the number Of delegates to the Com
vention. She claims, through the
Constitution, three times as many
delegates as she is willing to concede
TO Cobb. If our contemporary will
recur to his own tables, as taken
from the census, he will see that
Fulton ought to have Al, 439 of pops
ulation to entiile her to delegation
three times as large as that conced-
to Cobb-whereas Fulton has only
49, 46 of population-lacking 1887
only Of the number sufficient to
authorize her claim to six delegates.
We repeat that a fair and just ap-
portionment would give five to Full
ton, three to Cobb and one to Clay
ton. Fulton's. representation in the
House of Representatives is three
Cobb's representation is two mem
bers. Will Fulton insist on having
six members in the House and on
giving Cobb two, when the conven>
ton assemblies 7 She could do so
with as much propriety as she now
evinces in claiming six delegates to

that clause in the army appropria-

from using the United States troops
in maintaining Packard's govern

in its passage, and owing to this fea-
ture the bill failed to pass, and an

A DEAD DELIGHT.
BY ELISE ARMSTRONG.

BY ELISE ARMSTRONG.
A something ever fair to me,
A single spot forever bright
A vision none save | can see.
The memory of dead delight.
A picture painted on the air,
A single flower that will not die,
To guard both bud and plant, my care
And keep them fair to greet the eye
A voice that softly calleth me,
A thought Of gladncss gone before
A sun that beams alone for me,
A strain of music never DER.
Ny cage is empty. for the bird
Flew out and left me long ago;
But ever since, an echo heard
Doth chant the lays | have loved SO
AMmr of sunshine used to stream
Across my floor; palace rose
And shut it out. But still dream
That its reflection ever goes.
A memory Of something lost
Is ever with me night and day;
To think of it | make my boast,
And 20 rejoicing on my way.
