The Bus Office fane been removed from ita late stand on the corner of Broad and Alabama streets, to the adjacent new building on Broad street, lately erected by Chief Justice Lochrane. A lease for the term of five yean has been obtained upon this entire building, and our pur pose is to fit it up substantially and con veniently for our business. The busi ness office is on the ground floor of the uilding, where business can be transact- at any hour of the day and at all rea sonable hours of the night. The edito rial and composing rooms are is the third story. The press room will be in the basement. Taken altogether, we think we now have one of the most desirable locations ‘or a printing office in the city. The bnilding is admirably adapted for it, and it is situated near to all the prinoipal business thoroughfares. We are entirely pleased with our new habitation end, as it affords us better fa cilities for work than we have had here tofore, we think we shall be able to make the Hum a better paper than it has hither to been. “Another ‘New Departure.’” Under this head, the Macon Telegraph (tv(l Messenger of the 20th insi, quotes from correspondents of the New York Herald and TYibune, now traveling in this State for the purpose of “interviewing” General Toombs and others, and con cludes with these words: “The New York Herald of Thursday has “a long report of another interviewer “who pursin dGen. Toombs from Wilkes “county on the 7th, and finally cornered “him in Hancock, and professes to have “extracted about a column and a half of “discourse from Mr. T. much like that “which was reported by the Tribune in- “terviower, only more so. Aooording to “the Herald interviewer, Mr. T. was as “belligerent as a fgamo-cock—almost “spoiling for auother fight “Something has happened to inspire the “whole tribe of ltadicals with a new and “extraordinary interest in Georgia politi- “tics and politicians. Perhaps they see “that Georgia is the Key Stone of the “Southern Arch, and a solid Demoorulio * ‘majority in the South is too much weight “for the Radical nag to carry on North ern Turf. Rut whatever they may say “about “Vallandigham’s new departure, “their scheme to enlist any large and re spectable class of the Southern whites “iu political copartnership with the ne- “grocs, in behalf of Federal consolida tion, protective tariff roblierv, the an “nibilation of State rights ana tho final “subversion of tho Constitution, contem plates a departure from every prinoiple “and predilection of the Sautlieru heart, “too total and abhorent for possibility or “supposition.” We do not reproduce the reported “in terviews,” as our neighlmr of Macon did, and on which these comments were made, because we Avion- them to bo untrue in several important particulars, and believe them to be untrue in others, but we publish the comments of the Teleqrrgdi nnd Messenger to give them our cordial endorsement. We cannot permit ourselves to believe that there is a Dcmocrut in Georgia who will ever, while ho claims to be a Demo crat, endorse the declaration of the 9th resolution of tho “Now Departure” Penn sylvaniu Convention, that all the usurpa tions attending Reconstruction so-called, wore but the rightful exercise of power, nnd that they were all done “ in the man lier and In/ the authority constitutionally ap- pointed," Thaddcus Stephens said when he en tered upon them, that he would “ not stultify himstlf by claiming that they were constitutional.” He said “they were outride of the Constitution”—that is, nothing but confessed usurpations—acts iu the very f»« ill mid over the plain letter as well ns spirit, of the Ctinstitution. We believe that no true Georgian will ever be abject c nough to say that these monstrous outrages upon their rights uml upon the organic law of the Union, were done “ in the manner and by the au thority constitutionally appointednor do wc behove that any true Georgian will ever, even as a matter of choice between evils, vote for any man for the Presiden cy who does endorse such a mischievous untruth. ^.*4 A not her V\ usltiiigtoii Muddle. THE-A. a C. RAILROAD. _ X The CmMIUm of Id A thirl loth. Huhrilla Union <t Aliened* of the 23d, we find tk» following com. mnniction from Chattanooga, relative to the complication, in which Btanton'a railroad la entangled: There has not been any marked ohange In the affairs of the Alabama A Ohattanooga Bead within the laat few days. Things are more quiet than they have been. The trains are not yet run ning, though it is hoped they will lie running in a abort time. Chattanooga is feeling very seriously the effect of the stoppage on that road. The blame is attributed to the men who an attempting to throw the road into bank ruptcy. It is thought that i udge Wood, of the United Statea Circuit Court, will, on Thursday, 22d, set aside the decree in beetkrnptcy, made by Judge Bnsteed, of the District Court. The indebtedness of the company in this oity has been very much overrated. It is said it does not reach 3300,000, whilst the company have already paid in this place since they com menced building the road, more than a million of dollars. They have also add ed to the value of the property of this oity nearly, if not qoite a million of dol lars, so rapid has been the growth of Chattanooga since this road was oom- menced. Although some individuals may lose something, vet the city as a whole, has been greatly Denefitted. These facts are mentioned not to justify non-pay ment but to show that the creditors should be, as they ere, lenient and for bearing towards the builder of their great road. It ia thought arrangements will be made in a few days in New York for a settlement of all the difficulties which now environ the road. Not only Chat tanooga, but tho other towns along the road, have been benefitted four or five times as much as the whole amount that the Company now owe them. It is true, many wno are most benefitted lose nothing by the Company, because they are not onditors, and many who might lose considerably, have very little proper ty to be increased in value, but it is hoped that all such will soon be paid, The attempt to throw the road into bank ruptoy, is regarded with very great and general disfavor by the creditors. By his time the road would have been doing a large business, having obtained the carrying of the great Southern mail. Serious damage has resulted, far greater than the amount for which the bank ruptcy salt was instituted. TBI INDEBTHDNESB OF THE OOUPAHT has been caused by the rapidity with which they built the road. In order to secure its early completion they made very heavy sacrifices, upon their I Kinds, particularly their second mortgage bonds, and they alao made purchases of materi als at high rates for the same purpose. They paid nearly twioe as much for labor as was paid elsewhere, in order to hasten the building of the rood. They have built a road more than 200 miles long in two years. It is true, a portion of the road, about forty miles, was built before the war, but they refit ted this portion an put down new iron and perhaps now cross ties. There has not been a road built so rapidly in the South, and that is the reason wuy the in- debtednees amounts to about forty thou sand dollars to the mile, which is about the same as the oost of the road from Atlanta to Chattanooga. Had it not been for the energy and ao- tivity of these men, and for what many men call their extravaganoe, this road would not havo been built in a quarter of a oentury. Some who tried to prevent ita being built are now trying to sacrifice it for the benefit of those who had no part or lot in building it. This sohome, it is thought, will, how ever, fail, and the road be saved for the benefit of the creditors. Your oity and tho Nashville and Chat tanooga Road are voiy mneh interested in this rood, for it is your sure protection ogaiiflt any Louisville monopoly. It will prevent discriminatious being made against the interests of Nashville. A few days will determine the fate of the road. It will either remain in the hands of the present company, or the State of Alabama will havo possession of it Tho proceedings in bankruptcy will amount to nothing, except the delays and injuries in stopping the trains. QBti teOytst Blodgett. AmiJ June 28, 1871. Suge—the erroneous statements in rvfteion to the Rabbins ease, which havsmtely Of;pearpf^i the newspapers, being calculated to mislead the public and do me injustice, I feel that a full and the ease is required. make are capable of proof, matttes ©J public When I took charge of the Western A 1 Atlantic Railroad aa Superintendent, I ; found among the claim* agninet the road one in favor of M. CL Ddbhlna, Esq., fer forty thousand ($40,000) dollars, for lost and damaged cotton, and for loss in price in oonseqnence of delay in delivering aa per contract Messrs. McDaniel A Strong alao b*d a frfrriilifc.T’ claim for a less amount approached by both parties for a settlement, which wa» not effected. In the mean time the case of McDaniel A Strong was tried in Fulton Superior Court, and judgment was obtained against the Road for the full amount claimed. Soon after this Col. Gaskill called on me, as the Attorney of Mr. Dob bins, in relation to compromising his claim, which I promised to take into con sideration, and after a number of meet ings we finally agreed to settle the whole matter by my giving a note at sixty days in favor of M. G. Dobbins for fifteen thousand five hundred and forty-eight dollars and six ($15,548 06) cents, it be ing less than forty per cent of the claim. I gave the note, but before it become due the road passed out of my control, and I had nothing more to do with the trans action. I was of the opinion at the time I made the settlement that it was a favorable one for the State, and such was the opinion of others, whom I consulted. I am still of that opinion. I never received a cofit of money, nor was there any collusion or arrangement whatever between Col. Gas- kill and myself. He acted as the Attor ney of Mr. Dobbins, and I os the Super intendent of the Western A Atlantic Railroad. The following papers are on file, and I publish them so as the whole transac tion may be known to the public, aud I am satisfied, if the Grand Jury had had these facts before them, no indictment would havo been found. The originals of exhibits B and D are signed by M. G. Dobbins in his own proper hand, and consequently it is rea sonable to suppose that lie was conver sant with the whole transaction, for hit- reputation as a business man would not warrant os in supposing that he would blindly sign important papers involving thousands of dollars. I was informed to day that there was some feeling on the part of Mr. Dobbins against Gaskill on account of the fee retained by the latter os attorney for the former; but with this I have nothing to do. I will add in conclusion that I have de manded in writing an early trial, feeling confident of acquittal of all censure or blame whatever. Very respectfully, Foster Blodgett, Sup’t W. & A. B.

EX- A *100,000 Hnaff The Ohio Kepublicna Resolu tions. A Washington special to tho Louisville Conrirr-Journal of the 21st says: There lins been a great deal of excite ment in eilioiul circles to-night, and es pecially among ofllctrs of the Internal Revenue Bureau, over the announcement tbut Col. Clifford Thompson, late chief clerk of the Internal Revenue Bureau, bad resigned, because it was ascertained tiiat he hud xold to tlie officers of the New York Central Railroad Company, two days in advance of ita promulgation, the decision in the great aerip tax ease, and that by this information the officers were enabled <o save themselves from 1cm. The excitement that this occasion ed would seem to indicate that if Thomp son was iu tlie business other officers of the bureau Lud a share in it Mr. Thomp- son left the office aith the highest iu- tloisement fr-m O'-n. Fleasuuton, and sua-. liis rtsignafi n ban bad limistuu privileges ot the Revenue Bureau. It ia hinted that aa the result of thi# expo, ante, Gen. Pleasanton himself will shot t- ly lender his resignation. The story spout the lius.iites here is that Colonel Thompson a rote ilie eflieers of the com pany snp ash d them uiiat information in relation tuthe ueeisiou suuhl Iteworti, in advance. *lne reply was AM),000.— Mr. Thompson was not satisfied with this, and demanded 800,000, when the company rifused the demand, and then had Mr. Thompoon’s letter photographed and sent to the President, Whatever the truth about the matter is, it creates a very unpleasant odor about the Treasu ry Deportment. From a W stern Associated Press dispatch of :u . tic have the leadiug feature- of the Republican platform ns expounded by the convention reso lutions. The first lauds the Republi can party for preserving tlie Union; nnd establishing the liberty and equality of all men before the law; its generosity to the national defend ers; its honor toward the national creditors, and its successful adminis tration in peace as well as in war. The second declares the recent amendments just, wise and valid ar ticles and that the organic law be zealously defended and enforced as |»«rt of the constitution, now, hence forth and forever. Tlie third declares a tariff necessa- ry to produce a large portion of the revenue needed by the government, and should be adjusted so as to pro mote the interests of every section ami branch of industry as far as pos sible. The fourth praises the Administra tion for its impartial executions of laws and forliearance, anil econo my, seducing tho taxation hundreds of millions annually, and making the unpamdlolcd reduction of over ♦230,000,000 in tho public debt.— Therefore Grant is entitled to he re garded a wise and careful magistrate, and deserves the confidence of the country for his uniform defenoe to public sentiment, having redeemed liis pledge of having no policy to en force against the will of the people. The fifth opposes land grants, ex cept for homesteads, which policy the Republicans claim to have originated. The sixth favors civil service re form. Tho seventh hopes that the day will soon como when loyal men will he safe from prosecution, outrage and aiwiusiiMtion, so Cut some encour agement may be offered for the re moval, in all proper cases, of politi cal disabilities. The eighteenth and nineteeth refer to local matters. Gen. Edward F. Noyos, of Cincin nati, was nominated fur Governor by acclamation and great enthusiasm.— lion. it. F. Wade, and Hun. Samuel Galloway, were named as candidates for Governor, but were immediately withdrawn by their friends. After a ballot, without result, for Lieutenant Governor, Gen. Noyes appeared and aocepted the nomination for Gover nor. EXHIBIT A Atlanta, Ga., 5th Nov., 1870, Westekn A Atlantic Railhoad, To M. G.

A Gaskill to sign my name to a receipt for a warrant to be issued this day in my favor, baaed upou a Note given by Foster Blodgett, as Superintendent Western aud Atlantic Railroad, in settlement of a claim against Western and Atlantic Railroad. Witness, M. G. Dobbins, J. W. Goldsmith. We see it stated in the Nashville Ban ner that the express eer on the Mobile A Ohio Railroad was lately robbed of some 830,000 while on the road. We learn from e’gentleman who ar rived on the train from the west that it is commonly understood that the amount of money taken from the ear was over 8180,000. He reports the robbery (sharing taken place in the night, while the train wee in motion, and while the messenger was asleep, on e long ran between stations; and that the oar waa entered by an open ing being nude in the top, and the iron safe drawn np—the whole being done without any alarm or discovery whatever, until the work was completed. We believe it ia customary for the ex- proas company to provide strong looks for the express cars;' and also bare in each one a small but strong iron safe in which to carry all money paokagea; and to allow express messengers to sleep on night runs, only requiring them to be awake at the proper stations and deliver all packages properly. The Mobile end Ohio Railroad is some 500 miles long—requiring two nights and one day to moke the trip, and it ia said that one messenger makes the whole trip through without stopping. This suggests sound sleeping daring the oond night, end the entire feasibility of making an opening in the top of a car— its weakest point—end hoisting the mon ey safe through it during an hoar’s nap, when a man would be in sleepy mood. This reported robbery, if true, is s bold one and the biggest haul on rsoosd. We believe nothing bat a burglar-proof safe, with combination look, and • trusty, well armed, wide-awake watchman, it oertain to prevent robbery.

A Richmond dispatch statea that the court of appeals has expressed an opfniou upon intoxication affecting responsibility for arime. A man was tried for qmrder in the first degree; counsel held that he could not, under the influence of liquor, form a premeditated purpose. Tlie court of appeals, to which the case was taken, reviewed the whole doctrine of drunksn- U0B8 as affecting crime. They snatniuud the view of the ouunsel for the prisoner that drunkenness is a proper subject to be taken into consideration in determin ing where a man is guilty of murder in the Aral degree, a reqniiato of which ia willulnees, deliberation and premedita tion. The court laid down the doetnm Uist voluntary drunkenness waa no *v i-u«a (or crime, even if insanity he pfo- iluoed, if inaonitv be the immediate re sult of the use of liquor. If, however. Insanity be remotely the result of the use of intoxicating liquors, then it is an ex cuse for crime. It is estimated that eighteen thousand insurgents have been shot in Auia Siam it was taka* by th* Vwqqihatia, We extract the following from the .Sau Francisco Commercial Herald of the 15th: California to-day has the bright prosjiect of a great general harvest as good or hotter than ever before. The grain crop as a whole will be much larger than even its friends suppose; there are large fields and many dis tricts where the harvests are short, and individuals will have little or no returns, and there are many fields that were a few weeki ago given up as hopeless, that will yield from a fair to a good crop These weeks of cool weather have done much good for the crops of grain, and the late rains have helped wonderfully; theae favor able changes and the large area planted added to those counties where the cro]>s are the best ever known, will surprise many who have been crying short crops. We havo personally visited many districts, the wont par ticularly, even where formers were cutting wheat and barley for hay, or rather for feed, for we took a sheaf of barley from the field being cut in tlie dry San Joaquin, where the owner admitted that good portions of the field would give thirty bushels to the acre, but his reason for catting was, that having a large amount of stock to winter, it was less expense to out and stock the grain and feed it to his stock than it would be to pay expense of thrashing aud bagging, and would pay better than to market the grain. Our wheat crop will be a good, fair, even a large general harvest, close upon last year. Our barley and oat crop is larger than laat year, while onr corn and other small grains will exceed those of 1870, thus making our whole harvest a moot satisfactory one. Our fruit crop—a very large one—apples and pears very laiwe, and the small fruits very sound The vineyards will gtve the most un funded harvest, the largest ever known. Our wool clip,the largest ever shorn in California and ike beat Tlie hop crop will also be the largest and best cured ever marketed in our Slate. Hops, mnstard seed, poafluts, almonds, oranges, lemons, and eden beans and corn will add by a large surplus crop to the articles we Can export.
