The State Nominations.

Last Wednesday, the 18th inst,
delegates representing the people
OF Georgia assembled in conven-
ton IN Atlanta for the purpose of
nominating candidates to preside
for the next two years, in the ca
pacity of State House officers. All
the old officers, with the excep-
ton of Treasurer Speer, who de-
clined a denomination, were again
placed before the people for Their
sutfrages. Mr.. Robt. W. Harde-
man, of Macon, was nominate d
for Treasurer by reclamation.
Mr.. Hardeman is eminently quail
flied for the position. The presi-
dental electors chosen are men
who have the confidence of the
people. The convention was re-
markable for its harmony-every-
thing passing off quietly and sat
isfactory. There seems to be a
wonderful degree of harmony in
the Democratic party of Georgia
at present and the counties
should follow in the lead of the
state as regards this matter. The
people of Georgia may rest assur-
ed that state matters will move
along smoothly under the admin
istration of the men selected.

The Eighth Georgia Volunteers.

Mr.. j. J. Griffin, of Atlanta, in
an article to the Savannah Morn

reunion of the survivors of the
Eighth Georgia Regiment of Vol
unteers, of which the Dawson Ri
fes, oil this county, was a compa-
ny, some time in the month of De-
tober in the city of Savannah.
The Eighth Georgia was organ
lied at Towards Grove, near
Richmond, Va, from independ-
ent Companies from Georgia. In
the seventy regiments of infantry
contributed by Georgia to the
South, none have a better record
than the Eighth" The Savan-
nah News says:
Its history is closely interviewer with
that of the soldiery of Savannah, and many
many OF its heroes sleep peacefully under
shade CT the evergreens in our cemeteries.
The monument to the MEN of Gettys-
burg is tlanked on either side by the dead
OF this regiment. Its record is sacred
heirloom In many household whose loved
ones last look was upon its flag "
