Hon. A. o. Bacon recently wrote let
ter regretting that his absence from the
State prevented his being present at the
first public meeting of the Democratic
party of Bib county after the session OF
the recent GubernatOrlal Convention of
the Democratic party. He says that he
shall in good faith support all the gen
tlemen nominated to office by that con-
Vention, and that he will do so frankly,
for he holds it as a cardinal principle
''that he who has not the nerve to meet
defeat with fOrtitude is unworthy OF
victory" In expressing these sentl-
ments Mr.. Bacon talks periodically, and
as a loyal Democrat who is true both
90 himself and his party.

We thought when we first heard that
the Republican Convention in Atlanta
had determined to sit with closed doors
that perhaps they intended to form a
native American .of-African-desce
party, and especially were we inclined
to think this, as we knew that there was
an abundance of first class material for q
know-nothing organization among Geor-
gia Radicals. 1t seems, though, that
the white office holding bosses only
wanted, quietly, and free from the in
trusion of the press, to fix things
with their quondam political puppets.
The latter, however, have begun to real
ize that they are freedmen and citizens,
and if they must be led they evidently
prefer to follow the dictates of one of
their own color, and so they kicked out
of the traces. We admire their pluck, aud
hope they will hereafter turn deaf ear
to H. Potash FarrOw and other office,
holding charmers, charm they never so
sweetly.

The Republicans in Congress were in a
sad dilemma over the river and harbOr bill
which their own President had branded
as n.unconstitutional attempt to procure
money from the Treasury, not for the
common defense or general welfare, but,
on the contrary, to be devoted purely to
local objects. If they passed the bill
over the veto, with this stigma upon it,
they ran the risk of offending the coun-
try, while if they refused, they leopard
lied their interests with their individual
constituents They determined to risk
the former rather than the latter, and
OVERRIDE the veto.

The anticipations of the Geor-

row in their convention have
been fully verified. They did have a
row, and serious one too. The
colored delegates, it seems, have at
length gotten tired of being led by the
nose by their white cOnfrereS and have
bolted. No wonder the convention sat
with closed doors, for fear the press
would ventilate this as it had done their
former disturbances.

A SAD DEATH INDEED,

1t is seldom tina, the press is called upon to
record sadder death than that of Mrs. DR.. w.
g. Ballard, of Madison Ga, which occurred at
the residence of Captain w. j. Ballard, in this
city, last night.
The deceased was the mother Of three young
men who are in business in this city, Messrs.
A G. and K. p anu b. w. Ballard, and left her
home yesterday morning to pay them a visit,
and they were awaiting her arrival with
hearts full of filial affection and tender de
vOtion.
Bat, alasi for human expectation. just be-
fore the train reached the city Mrs. Ballard
was fatally stricken with apoplexy, and in
stead of greeting her dear boys" at the depot
with her familiar smile and loving kiss, they
bore, with sOrrowing hearts and weeping eyes,
her almost lifeless form to the residence Of
Captain Ballard, where, in less than two hours,
her pure spirit winged its flight TO heaven.
To Mrs. Ballard sudden death had no terrors
for she was a noble Christian mother, always
ready for life's stern duties or deaths eternal
rewards She 80 trained her sons in all that
was pure and noble and virtuous in character,
that they cannot now mourn her sudden de-
parture as those without hope, for the sons of
SUCH a mother will be gathered to her in
heaven at last.

UNIVERSITY CONFEDERATE GENERALS

In a recent letter from Athens in regard to
commencement, Col h. II. Jones referred
briefly to the military record of the University
during the late War, but failed to speak of the
distinguished Generals who were graduates of
that institution.
The class of 1884 furnished two, Gen. Howell
COBB and Gen. Henry L. Benning; the class
OF 1886, Gen. Francis .. Barlow; the class of
1871 one, Geo. Thomas II. r. Cobb; the class
of 1912 one, Gen. A. y. Darlington. Gen. Robert
roombs left college just before graduating
time, but is in one SENSE University man."
AS to CoonelS furnished the \ onfederate
army from the list of graduates, their name is
legion, and their record bright with heroic
d. eds and faithful service. John r. Church,
a. NJ, VINO graduated In 1859, went to West
Point Military Academy, finished The course
there, and entered the army, but resigned in
1861 and became u Colonel IN the Confederate
service,
Col John JONES' late State Treasurer, left
the University in 1882 and went to West Point
Military Academy but failed 10 graduate Yet
he made gallant officer both IN the Mexican
war and the War between the States" as Mr.
Stephens calls il. Gen: John NJ Cuyer, of
Georgia, a Medical Director of the United
States army, graduated at the University in
the class of 1923.
Of the young graduates Gen, Edward d.
Tracy, A. M, Of Macon, who removed TO
huntsville, Alabama, and from there entered
the Confederate service, was the most conspic-
uous. He graduated in the class of 1851, and,
like Cobb IT. h. ~ and Barlow, fell in battle
with his face to the foe"
Judge John A. Campbell, now of New Or
leans but who was the Assistant Secretary Of
War of the Confederate states, graduated at
the University in the class of 1896 and the same
year entered West Point Military Academy,
where he remained some three years, when
the death OF his father, Hon. Duncan u. Camp
bell, caused his return home.
But aside from their military career. brilliant
as That may have been, there is hardly a name in
the lIsL that mas not won and worn the highest
honors in law, medicine, or statesmaEship.
VINO fell as heroes IN the strife needed NOT thts
baptism OF blood to place them higa on the
scroll of fame, and embalm them in loving re-
membrance In the hearts Of all true Georgians
for generations TO come.
