THE GEORGIA DEMOCRATS AND THE RECONSTRUCTION STATE GOVERNMENT—THE STATE CREDIT.
Atlanta, September 26.—The efforts to borrow money at the North on the credit of the State of Georgia have resulted in failure.
The Democratic Central Executive Committee have issued an address announcing that they recognize the government organized by authority of the reconstruction acts, and will recognize it, now and henceforth, unless it should be superseded by authority of law. The address concludes as follows:
We see no reason to apprehend that the State government, under the present constitution, in its legitimate operation as directed and administered by the several departments as now constituted, will be more restrictive of the rights of any class of our citizens than is absolutely necessary to harmonize it with and conform it to the requirements of the Constitution and laws of the United States, and we trust the State government will adhere to and make effective the first section in the declaration of the fundamental principles embraced in our constitution—protection of person and property is the paramount duty of government, and shall be impartial and complete.
