After the breaking up. of the national Democratic convention at Obarleston the party in Georgia held a state convention, Great excitement prevailed. The leaders of the party. could not agree. It was critical period. The majority report indorsed the seceders or bolters at Charleston, while the minority report opposed their aoction. The leading champion of the minority was Herschel V. Johnson, and his followers were confident that his eloquence and logic would carry the day. It is quite likely that such would have been the case but for an tnfortunate mishap. Ex-Goyernor Johnson began his speech before the noob adjourn: ment on the second day and concluded after dinner. : Old men who remember that speech gay. that it was:a. powerful argument, and the impréssion gained ground that after the noon recess the speaker would demolish his opponents with a few sledge hammer blows. But the overconfident.friends of the minority report were doomed to disappointment. Johnson felt the strain of the morning session so much that he was unable to eat anything, and he took a glass of wine upon an empty stomach to strengthen-bimself. This was a fatal mistake, That one glass of wine perhaps changed the destiny of the nation! The great orator resumed hia speech, but the wine. had nauseated him. He was hazy, verbose and unintelligible at times. His style and argunient lacked vigor, consistency and positiveness. His friends looked at one another in despair. The men on the other side were exultant. It was evident that the speaker bad damaged his own cause. ‘Then Howell. Cobb and Henry RB. Jackson followed each other for the majority report. They spoke with an air of expectant triumph and captured the convention. The majority report was adopted. It is unnecessary to follow the history of the next few weeks. The national De mocracy was completely disrupted and put two tickets in the field, Lincoln was elected and the country was plung ed into a civil war. Had Johnson suc ceeded in inducing the Georgia conven. ticn-to adopt his conservative ideas,it is safe to say that other southern states would have fallen into line with our commonwealth, and the national Demo cratic party would have remained united. This is the.story of whata little glass of wine did. It ruined a great.party. caused a disastrous war, and besides the loss of life cost the south over $4,000,000,000. Perhaps this is.rather specnlative, but there aré many whobelieved it a generation ago.—Atlanta Constitasome EASTERN. “WEATHER, A Californian Who Does Not Think = Nery Mach of Ie An ald Galttbrsian who went back to Wisconsin a whileago writes as follows: +“ftheught_I-would send you # few lines to.let you know that Iam still inthe land of the living, but. in one of the coldest lands on earth.

C, Stockes. ONE GLASS OF WINE. & Belief That It Changed the History of This Country. It is said that a single glass of wine probably wrecked the Democratic party in 1860. The story is worth telling. After the breaking up. of the national Democratic convention at Obarleston the party in Georgia held a state convention, Great excitement prevailed. The leaders of the party. could not agree. It was critical period. The majority report indorsed the seceders or bolters at Charleston, while the minority report opposed their aoction. The leading champion of the minority was Herschel V. Johnson, and his followers were confident that his eloquence and logic would carry the day. It is quite likely that such would have been the case but for an tnfortunate mishap. Ex-Goyernor Johnson began his speech before the noob adjourn: ment on the second day and concluded after dinner. : Old men who remember that speech gay. that it was:a. powerful argument, and the impréssion gained ground that after the noon recess the speaker would demolish his opponents with a few sledge hammer blows. But the overconfident.friends of the minority report were doomed to disappointment. Johnson felt the strain of the morning session so much that he was unable to eat anything, and he took a glass of wine upon an empty stomach to strengthen-bimself. This was a fatal mistake, That one glass of wine perhaps changed the destiny of the nation! The great orator resumed hia speech, but the wine. had nauseated him. He was hazy, verbose and unintelligible at times. His style and argunient lacked vigor, consistency and positiveness. His friends looked at one another in despair. The men on the other side were exultant. It was evident that the speaker bad damaged his own cause. ‘Then Howell. Cobb and Henry RB. Jackson followed each other for the majority report. They spoke with an air of expectant triumph and captured the convention. The majority report was adopted. It is unnecessary to follow the history of the next few weeks. The national De mocracy was completely disrupted and put two tickets in the field, Lincoln was elected and the country was plung ed into a civil war. Had Johnson suc ceeded in inducing the Georgia conven. ticn-to adopt his conservative ideas,it is safe to say that other southern states would have fallen into line with our commonwealth, and the national Demo cratic party would have remained united. This is the.story of whata little glass of wine did. It ruined a great.party. caused a disastrous war, and besides the loss of life cost the south over $4,000,000,000. Perhaps this is.rather specnlative, but there aré many whobelieved it a generation ago.—Atlanta Constitasome EASTERN. “WEATHER, A Californian Who Does Not Think = Nery Mach of Ie An ald Galttbrsian who went back to Wisconsin a whileago writes as follows: +“ftheught_I-would send you # few lines to.let you know that Iam still inthe land of the living, but. in one of the coldest lands on earth.
