This is wall oalcuUtad to plao© General
Tsrry in © fcd*© position with thoa© who may
©ot know th© Mot©. Qsuorai Tarry i© not ©
politician, and ha© taken no part whatever in
tho political combinations or personal dispute©
of politfoiaua In this State. Aa an army offl-
oat, entrusted by hit Government with th©
dt©efcarge of certain ©pacific duties, he has ta
ken no part, directly or lodlreotly, in th©
Meal polities in Georgia.
But aa au Individual—aa a private geutlo-
man~-i© th© capacity simply of a ciueon, «ud
©cl iu his offioial capacity, he did desire to Me
harmony and good feeling among the officials
of tho Government; and, aa auob, he delicate
ly aud prudently ©ought reconciliation between
them as individuals, and not as politicians.
Thia ia all the foundation there is for the state-
mouts of our talented ootuuij>oiarj ; aud upon
reflection, he cannot fail to see that his article
above alluded to, is well calculated (though
unintentional) to put General Tarry in a false
light before the publie. The efforts of the
General to rnako peace whore disagreement
oould result in no practical good; and bis dis
interested offices to that end, as a private gen
tleman, were ocrtainly laudablo; uuloas, indeed,
the Constitution conceives it a dnty to on-
courage strife, ill feeling and recrimination,
rather thau to seek to allay it—a supposition
which we deem inadmissable.
We do not beliav© that our good Demooratic
neighbor would wantonly misrepresent Gen.
Terry or place him in a false attitude before
the public; and hence we have thought proper
to make this explanation. Surely any Chris
tian gentleman who desires to see his neigh
bors and friends at peace, may, as a mere pri
vate gentleman, and not aa an official, become
a peace maker without coming under the ban
of condemnation! As General Terry, in his
official capacity, he is in no way identified
with the squabble© and misunderstanding© of
local politicians. But as a patriotic citizen,
and one who held nothing in common with
the political fortune© of any mere partisan,
he desired to see peaoe and harmony among
the officers of the State Government; and as a
private citizen he made the advances he did
just as any other educated and refined gen
tleman might have done under the circum
stances without subjecting his motives to crit-
cism at the hauds of either party. He done
no more than Chief Justice Chase, Presidont
Grant, Ex-President Fillmore or any other
enlightened gentlomon might havo dono un
der bimilar circumstances. And in this Gen
eral Terry will have the warm commendation
of all gentlemen irrespective of party.

Of the appropriation of a lady's privat© Ut
ter-supposing it to bo genuine—for th© pur

nothing n©©d b© ©aid. Th© men who formed

attainment of tb©ir ©nda They who laid
trap© at street corner* that they might boa©on
speaking hr the President, would not tf©aftete
to purloin a privet© letter if its possession were
nticobsary for their purpose.
But wa brand the letter and tb© ©xtraot from
the letter aa forgeries. No such letter as that
which the Gold Ring gave to the public yes
terday was ever written by Mrs. Grant Not
a line over proceeded from that lady or from
the President, in any manner recognizing or
dirocting gold or any other speculation© Any
letter whioh is alleged to have been written by
either, of the nature of that whioh haa keen
published, ia a base and wicked fraud. It is a
forgery, aud on© in perfoot keeping with other
measures resorted to by the gold conspirators.
Whether Mr, Corbin haa at any timo pre
tended to be In receipt of special advices in
regard to his speculation© from the President
or from Mrs. Grant, we cannot undertake to
say. Ho is evidently a weak mao, aud has
played a very foolish part In one way or
another, he has been associated with the Erio
gang, and has been an instrument in their
hands. For what he may have said or done,
neither General nor Mrs. Grant is accounta
ble. lie must bear the oonsequences of his
folly, and must divide with his speculative as
sociates the responsibility for the scandal
which has been cast upon the President and
his household.
The essential fact in tho controversy, and
that which no amount of details oan be allowed
to keep out of sight, is the total absence of el*
connection between tho President and the gold
speculation. Whether Corbin or Butterfield
is better or worse than he professes to be, is a
small matter in tb© estimation of the publio.
That which concerns the oonntry in this con
nection is the oondnet of its President. And
since it has been afresh impugned, we assert
most positively, as we asserted in the first in
stance, that at no time, in no way, haa Gen.
Grant, or Mrs. Grant, had the remotest inter
est in any speculative transaction, whether re
lating to gold or bonds. Noither with Corbin
nor Fisk, neither with Butterfield nor Gould,
have they held correspondence touching the
late gold conspiracy ; and any allegation to
the oontrary is unqualifiedly false.—A T . Y.

The Lsit of And7 Johnson.
After a gallant fight in the Tennessee Legis
lature, Andy Johnson, as a candidate for the
United State© Senate, has been defeated by
Henry Cooper, brother of Edmund Cooper,
who was Mr. Johnson’s private Secretary in
the Whito House. The decisive ballot stood
—Henry Cooper 65, Andrew Johnson 61.
Cooper, a mernbor of the StAte Senate, is said
to bo an able and rising politician of the con
servative school. We are disappointed in the
result We had hoped and expected the elec
tion of Andy Johnson, and we desired it be
cause he was the very man wanted in tho Sen
ate at Washington to stir up the impeachment
Radicals, to expose their delinquencies and
corruptions, Aud to keep tho fire up aud the
pot boiling.
But Andy has failed, anil we have to lament
his defeat We lament it beouuse, at his time
of life, we fear it is the last of Johnson. H~
fell between two fires-between the remorse
less radicals and the implaoable ex-rebels who
combined against him. On both sides the
record of Johnson was used to defeat him.—
The radicals produced tho rooord of his M
with Congress and hia impeachment; the
rebels Haunted his Tennessee record os Mili
tary Governor, his speeohes to the negroes
promising to be their Moaes, and telling the
rebels that they ninst take back seats; and his
Washington record as a radical, iuclfiding hia
rewaid of one hundred thousand dollars for
the capture of Jeff. Davis and the hangir
Mrs. 8urratt Among the chivalry of the
nessee Legislature this was the unpardonable
offense, tbo hanging of Mrs. 8armtt. No ac
count was taken of the terrible excitement
and consternation in Washington at tho time,
and the tremendous pressure upon JoL
against the conspirators in the Lincolu
der, and especially against Mrs. Surratt.
This is a strange ending of the political life
of Johusou, considering his numberless par
dons to rebels, beginning with his twenty
tnousaml dollar schedule and ending in his
final Amnesty, which swept tha whole board—
Mason, Slidell, Jake Thompson, Jeff. Davis
and all. But all this did not suffice to atone
for tho hanging of Mrs. Surratt Yet Andy
made n good fight, and would have won it but
for the fonrteon romorseless radicals dead sot
against him and dead set against Etheridge.
There is some comfort in the deteat of Ethe
ridge, for he has the reputation of nothing
better than a bag of wind; but wo regret the
defeat of Johnson. We think it is the last of
him as An aotive politician, and that he will
probably retire upon hia laurels to tho shades
of Greenville, make a now suit of clothes for
himself and then write a book. He could get
twenty thousand dollars for a book on the ups
and downs, the ins and outs, the pipe layers
aud dead ducks, the kitehou cabinet, the
lobby and the mysteries and miseries of his
administration.— N. Y. Herald.

The. President and hi* Slaudercr*.
Wo cannot hope that any denial will silence
the slanderers of the President. What they
durst not say boldly they suggest by base in
sinuation. Unable to establisn a single point
against him, they insist that he should be
held ruHponsiblo for tho aots of persons over
whom ho exercises no control. They promise
to punish him for tho follies and sins of Oor-
bin and Butterfield. And having failed to
acquire a particle of evidence to establish his
connection with theso persons, they have
dragged iu the name of a lady, and have ro-
sortod to forgery to furnish a pretext for the
assault. The men who employ these tactics
morally, outluws. C Larue tor less thom-
solvow, they shrink from no trick however
famous, from no falsehood however flagrs
to give color and plausibility to their idle
tions. All argument with theso men is k
oil exposure is to them a matter of indiffer
ence.
Tho case as soen by tho public wears a
feront complexion. Tlio nature aud extent of
the conspiracy, the standing and motives of
the conspirators, aro All mudorstood. The
slanderers of the President are fully apprecia
ted. Their nliiuuce with Tammany, and the
bleuding of partisan intrigue with gambling
and speculative knavery, aro tboronghly un
derstood. This knowledge of the assailants
of General Grout predisposed the public to
judge him favorably. They woighed his char
actor as against theirs, his Antecedents, Asso
ciations and word against theirs, aud accepted
his denial of thoir stories as conclusive. They
looked at what purported to be eridenoe, and
discovered that it had no proper referenoe to
him. They oalled for farther proof, and ara
met with the pretended content© of ©letter
which on inquiry is declared a forgery.
