Rufus E. Lester for Governor.

On the 10th day Of April next the Demo
cratic party Of Georgia, through us
representatives in convention assembled,
will select a candidate for Governor TO I'll
the vacancy now existing in the EXecu-
tive Office. Thus far but two gentle
men named for the position exhibit any
marked strength. II is quite likely, how
ever that others viii enter the field, and
that there viii be a contest more or less
spirited for the choice Of the convention.
We accordingly take pleasure in sug-
costing as the successor Of the late dis
tinguished Executive a gentleman well
known to the people Of Georgia and every
where respected for his ability integrity
and worth. We allude to the Hon. Ruius
f. Lester. 50 long the hOnOred President
Of the state Senate and at present TIE
popular and excellent Mayor Of savannah.
In fitness for the high trust Of the Govern
Orship Mr.. Lester is the peer Of any Geof-
gian that could be named. His service IN
the Legislature has familiarIzed
him with the details OF that wise pollfy
which has contributed 50 largely 10
the welfare Of the commonwealth. An
able LAWYER. a thorough business man,
close observer Of the times-intellectually
he is admirably qualified for the position,
which he would adOrn with his courtesy
and geniality, which win for him the re-
gard Of all with whom he is brought IN
contact.
His friends everywhere throughout the
State would be highly gratifed at his ele-
walton to the GOyernOrship, and would
regard his selection as a guarantee that
the government would be conducted on
business principles and with an eye single
to the welfare Of the whole people. His
nomination would command the hearty
approval Of the Democratic party,
and would be a graceful recognition
Of the claims Of this section Of the state.
We suggest Mr.. Lester, however, simply
as presenting for the high office all the
qualifications that can be required. and
we indulge the hope that his merits will
be recognized.
If the people wish Governor who Will
bring TO the discharge Of his duties
clear comprehension Of the needs OF the
commonwealth and the tact Of a thorough
man Of business. they will unite on Rufus
F.. Lester. Of Chatham.
