The general sentiment of the coun try seems to he in favor of no conces sion or back down on the part of the. Democrats in the coming dead lock between Congress and the Executive Some prominent Democratic states - men advise the avoidance of every thing which could possibly give rise to the cry of revolution and s didify the North for Grant, arguing that as the Democrats have done all they cnu to maintain constitutional gov ernment, it would be better for them gracefully to acquicse, and pass the appropriation bill, leaving tho 10 Bpcnsibility for the uuconstit utional measures to tho Republicans who inaugurated them, committing their cause to the decision of the pcopl e at the ballot box in 1880. The majority, though, scums io favor the passage of the legislative bills, and if the President vetoes them, to adjourn without granting supplies for the support of the guv erument. It is a significant fact, however, that the Republicans are anxious for the Democrats to lake this stand. The latest movements, however, indicate that the Democrats are by no means hacked, but aro adopting measures which will make the Presi dent and his party show their bands to the people. The paiticular juueturo in our poli'.ical affairs is a critical one, and requires consummate wisdom. Wo have, no doubt, that legislation will be so modified as to avoid the defects of the first programme, and at the so* i time maintain the dignity of the party. Again we say that victory in 1880 is vastly more im pot taut than any temporary triumph. May wis dom pervade our councils. Lees Politics. One of the happiest results of the transition from Radicalism to Demo cracy, besides the reduct ion of taxes and the diminution of corruption, id the turning of the'minds of the pccple fit m politics to material dc velopment. In the turbu'ent days that are past politics pervaded almost every elago of society, and the minds of men were naturally diverted from the ordinary pursuits of business. Now every thing is changed, and, confidence I cing engendered in the adminislra tion of the government, men aro able to turn their attention from public to rivnte affairs. This is indeed a happy change. What we need is less politics, and moro work. The material development of our land is the province of our young men This is the key to our future wealth nn:i happiness. Agriculture presents the* but field for oui energna and labor, uor is the door closed to ruauufac uro tnd commerce. With our genial climate and fertile soil, pluck, energy and perseverance will en tire pros perity. With our young men io Is tho future hope of our Stute and country. We look to them. ?justice Vindicated Cox, the mm derer of Col. Alston has been on trial in Atlanta for tho past week or more, and the whole country has been anxiously awaiting the verdict, the facts of the thrilling murder being so fresh in the public mind. At 4 o'clock yesterday, after an absence of 24 hours, the jury came in with the following verdict : "We find the prisoner guilty, and recom mend that he, be punished by im prisonment for life." Cox received the verdict stoically, but bis wife be came very much excited, rushing to the window of tho court house to throw herself to tho ground exclaim ing wildly: "Oh my God I Oh my darling I" She wes checked from injury by her husband. Judge Ilillior sentenced Cox to hard {labor in tlic penitentiary during his nnlural life. It is worthy of note thai he the 0 iriihiii :! a jid has been saved from du- gnI lows by the lav* passed through the Georgia Legislature by his victim, Col. Alston, rec?mmond infjas a substitute, imprisonment for life. Congross. Since the veto of President Ilnycs this body has been quietly going on with general business At the pro sent writing t o plan >f the Demo crats seems to be to separate tho Ap propriation and Legislative Bills. In fact a bill has been introduced into the House the text of which is to for bid the interference of the army in elections except when called for by the Governor or Legislature of a Stale to suppress violence. If the President vetoes this it will throw the responsibility of military intorferenj e in elections upon the Republicans, ami injure the party. The Demo ends will let the Appropriation Bill stand now until the political bills are disposed of. The present outlook indicates that if the President, vetoes the political bills (so called) they will ndjot rn without making auy appro priations. A few days however will decide. Labor Convention. This Convention composed ol the representatives of labor and capital in tho. Mississippi Valley without re gard to race cr party met in Vicks htirg en Monday. Its proceedings have boon exceedingly harmonious, a spirit of conccs>ion actuating all par ties, and it is i bought that it will re sult in much good. The Committee, on Resolutinns re ported, und assigned bad crops, bad fanning, thrift I ess ties* and false re presentations as the causes of the present troubles, and recommended the organization of a system of com mittees to retnovo said causes. The Convention then adjourned ?im?! die. The President's Intention. A dispatch from Washington says that it is now generally believed that the President will sign the bid to prevent military interference with elections, which may tend materially to the relief of the dead lock. Train the Lody us well as Mind The lecture of Prof. Sacldebcn in Charleston, on '/'/"' Gymnastics of the Ancient Greeks, brings forcibly to mim] tho importance in the educa tion of the young oi' combining phy sical with mental training. The former seems to have bean sadly neglected in the public institutions of the prosonl day. Iiis encouraging, however, to note that some effort ut improvement in this direction is being made, and that the branch of calisthenics has been introduced into many even of on*, female institutions, A sound mind in a sound body is the correct mi del, and all educators of the youth might to aim at its attainment. Kvcry school and college shoo I i have gymnasiums for the develop ment of the bodies of the young as well as text books for the develop ment of their minds. I The ancient Greeks paid special j attention to the physical element in education as their magnili cent ath letic games and honors to the victors testify. With us the subject is loa much neglected. (\unbined physical and mental training will produce a hardier and nobler race. Hoys should be trained to be strong, active and bravo, as w ell as noble, generous and true.
