THE CANVASS IN GEORGIA.
GORDON AND BACON RULED OFF
THE TRACK.
But the Bitterness Breaks 0ut In the
Congressional Districts - Ambi-
tiOus Candidates.

CONGRESSIONAL DlsuIcls Anbi-
tiOus Candidates.
Ito Savannah correspondent OF the
Char eston News and COurier, writing
on the 22d instant, says: Nesrly
everybody here approves OF the action
of the "seconds" If The two GubernR-
tortal ASPIRIN in taking their princi-
pas of the stump-or "a her in put
ting an end to the join. quarrel-for
il could not be pnsidered discussion.
Another week OF such canvass would
have destroyed the chances of b th
Gen. Gordon end Maj. Bacon for the
nomir alton. The psopc were dis
guged with personalities and vituper-
alton and inuendoes during the Col
ouiit-Norwood cRmpsi On six years ago.
Most OF the old wounds have been
hea ed, ard il is desired that they be
not broken open again. The portions
OF tie State in which The joint dis

The candidates will now make their
Own appointments, and the canva 8,
will, doubtless, be something like
fighting with short swords at long
range. Durng the past week Gen
Gordon and Maj. Bacon have said
some pretty bard things about each
other, and II looked once or twice as

tinpushed gentlemen have made
against each Other-when examined
ispassionately-look very much like
"much ado about nothing" and the
inuandoes were unwor by of the
sp, akelB and OF the occasion. This
shows how really excel mt and hon
ofab's men may say and do things in
the heat Of debate, especially when
they're speaking in their own inter
ests, that they ought to be sorry for
and ashamed Of,
BOTH VERY EXCELLENT MEN.
Tha people OF Georgia know that
both Gen Gordon and Msj BAG IN are
much belt men than they give ca h
other crtdit for being, and much
ADLER men than they would appear to
BIS from their p6 tulant manner OF car
rying on what should be a discussion
OF quest'o As relating 10 the welfare of
the State. In the meantime there rs
tbol ADDS Of Georgans who hope the
day viii come when men will no
seek igh Offices on the hastings or
solicit prSfermsnt to them. At pres

has income the unwIitten law OF poll

want, SIX for IT,"

Thousands of people in Georgia have
come ~ the ConClueion that neither OF
the p esent candidates should be ON
mated, and there is plenty of room to
doubt whothsr either OF them will win
the prize, About twenty delegat, 8
only have to n chosen, aud these may
