A Correction.
An cstot vaa committed in to publi-
IT**— ol Hon. Mark A Cooper's letter,
Saturday, which needs correction. We
him say, “In dm/ting the oaU lot
■ -if-n-g it WM agreed between us that
■tall »*»«* andhy all means, politics and
gUOsmanship be kept out." It is per-
unnecessary lor us to inform oar
leaders that “ataisamanskip" was not the
written word, bnt sectarianism.

Prospectiv e Indiuu Troubles.
From the most reliablo accounts that
have reached Washington, and from oon-
tinuons reports that are pouring in from
all manner of sources from the West,
there is little doubt that Indian troubles
daring tbe present summer will be more
serious than they have been for years.—
The “red varmints” are iwarming along
the whole Texns frontier, and the proba
bility is that while settlors will have to
fall beck out of their roach or he butch
ered.
Tlse Government has boon endeavoring
to allay ail lean of trouble from this
source, but the reportn bent out from the
Departments have not been adequate to
counteract the new* which shows the true
state of the case. The Government
would like to avoid Indian troubles, and
means to avoid sending troops to the
frontier just as long ns possible. The
troops are needed in the States—especi-
ally in the Southern States—or political
purposes, and General Grant will not or
der them away unless absolutely forced
to it, when be can no longer hope to dis
guise the real condition of tbe white tad
tiers “out West.” His vigilance iH all
being exhausted iu suppressing the my tlii
cal Ku Klux in the South, while tbe reul
Indian Ku Klux of the West may go on
with their scalping at will.

The Griffin S. Madisou Railroad
From tbo Augusta papers we ascer
tain that, on the 22J instant, Judge
Roeee and Mayor Thomason, of Madi
son, visited Augusta in order to enlist
the people of that city in tbo interest of
the Grifliu A Madison Railroad. Mayor
Estes, upon learning the object of their
visit, invited a numln-r of prominent cit-
iiens to meet them at the llourd of Trade
Rooms. A meeting was held and Judge
Roese made au argument to show how the
rood would benefit Augusta aud why the
capitalists and business men of that city
should subscribe. From the Chronicle t£

the queetlon, “Whet, then, iu your opinion, la the
ccuee of *o many ecU ol violence being reported end
telegraphed North at Ku-ltlux outrage* V To thla
he replied a* follow*. “It in*/ art*n from varloua
c«unen; my theory, however, In that a claaa of men
who have not the welfare of the South at heart came
from the North, aud, knowing that the political
right* oi many of tho Southern people are denied
them, they operate with the negroe* to aecure their
votee to elevate them to poutiuus of truatand respon
sibility. Secret leagues are formed, incendiary
speeches, calculated to do irreparable injury are
made, the employer in denied the eervioee of hi* paid
laborers an they dock to taeae leagues and are taught
insubordination. The result u that among the sub
stantial ettuen* of the section of ooantry wherein
theee men operate they are regarded with distrust
and socially ostracised. They secure lucrative offl-
oes, defraud tbe people, end in all their acta seeming
ly endeavor to excite public opinion against them.
As a natural consequence, at intervals, the indig
nation probably of au individual may be aroused
and an Individual assault made, which la soon mag
nified Into s Ku-Klux outrage. Now, I do not pre-
tend to deny that in same instances men have been
killed; not, however, Indiscriminately slaughtered.
The same motive that Impels a man to kill uls bro
ther in New York, Massachusetts, or Maine applies
as well In Alabama, North Carolina or Tennessee, the
dtffersnse being that in the latter Htatcs the victim
by hi* conduct tends to aggravate the murderer to
auch bloody work. The ceees are few, but of course
arc ctedited a* being the work of the Ku-Klux, aud
hence, public upiniuu North Is dtrectod against the
whole booth as a blood-thirsty people. Again, bad
men come Houth with no Hied purpose In view.—
They seem to float along, aud like Mr. Macawbor,
••wait for someth lug to turnup.” In their idle ness
they operate among Uie negroes, excite their aui>er-
stlUous louliugs against their employers aud cause a
general stagnation In agricultural pursuit*. When
remonstrated with for euch conduct, instead of allow
ing the planter to peacefully pursue the eveu tenor
of hie wayTthey attempt to revive old aores and

same as a vagrant may be locked up In Washington or
e ituntohai character ordered out of^ it. Thla, 1
presume, Is at ooce called a Kn Klux outrage.
As far as he goes, General Forrest is
undoubtedly oorroot in his opinion. Had
the people of the South been let alone
and not crowded to the utmost stretch
of patienoe by the bonds of adventurers
that the war threw into their midst, there
never would hove been any foundation for
these reported “outrages.” There is,
and can be, no enmity between the Sou th
em white man and the negrp. The latter
it too valuable to the former to be alien
ated and made an enemy of, while he, at
the same time, feels too much his depend
ence upon the whites to voluntarily seek
to create an animosity betwoed tho two
races.
But aliens have intruded themselves
upon the South, and, moved by greed
aud ambition, have sought places of pub-
lio trust. They knew from the start that
these places Oouhl not be obtained by
conseut of the white people, consequent
ly they sought those localities where the
negro population predominated over the
white, and at once commenced a system
atic training of this ignorant element in
order to attain the end of their ambition
Leagues and societies were formed, into
which the negroes were gathered. These
were the negroes’ schools of poli
tics. Here they were taught that the
Southern white man was their worst ene
my. Here they were taught that the
Northern mon had given them freedom;
that the Northern men were their only
frieuds; that «f they had their way their
former masters would soon reenslave
them. They were taught, too, to violate
their labor coutracts. They were taught
also to have their petty grievances adju
dicated before that judicial abortion, the
Freedman’s Bureau. They were taught
to believe they would eventually become
owuors of tho Southern country, or a
large portion of it. They were taught to
become orropu t m>d insulting. The
wonder wiMilti n U^n bud they not
beooiue ►<>. mi • tue pumica! curriculum
through which their Northern “friends”
have conducted them.
TuLing all these things into considera
tion, it is not singular that some negroes,
and some white men were maltreated.—
Murders are committed in Massachu
setts and Ohio upon smaller provocations,
aud quite os frequently as they have been
committed in the South; yet no one
would think that bands of mon arc or
ganized in those States for the purpose
of committing murders, though the
ground for such opinion is quite as appa
rent as that upon which is based the
charge that there is a Ku-Klux Klan,
having a general organization throughout
the South.

iy—June 25tli,
SciipCT-^'Bnt on# thing Is needful”
—Ufa 10, 4k- —^
The theme of the dixcoorae wee Uut,
the ChrutUn religion k the one thing,
needful te arery iniBridiuil of the human
family; bnt more eeoeeiallY it that rail-. .
gion the one thing needful to woman.—.
Woman ia, by nature, more euaoeptible
to religion, influence than man; and wo-
man, owing to her peculiar relations and
associations, can more readily instil into
tbe minds of the young the sentiments
and impreesiona of religions training
than man. The Christian religion is the
only religion ia the world that places
woman ss the equal aud tho compauiou
of man. All other religions degrade
woman below her proper sphere in life,
and make man the lord orer her; and in
some ooantries, woman is trusted with
less humanity than beasts of burden usu
ally are in a Christian country. Mauy
had diaouesed the question, whether the
female mind is eqnsl to that of the male;
but suoh a question needs no discussion.
The male mind ia the superior when
brought into exercise within its proper
sphere of action; and the female mind
is the superior when brought into exer
cise within its proper sphere.
The exercises will continue daring the
week, and bid fair to be Af the most in
teresting character.

Chaucer, the father of English poetry,
has attached the true sense to this word.
Mirth, in good old English, induces
the most sacred sorts of cheerfulness.—
Hence the old Pssltsr praises God with
“awful mirth." The Apostle James has
reproduced this idea of (Solomon when he
makes the recommendation, “Is any
among yon merry, let him sing psalms."
A merry heart iu Heriptural porluucc is
simply u cheerful heart.
First, The effects of cheerfulness on
the body are strikingly manifest. By
reason of the intimate and inexplicable
union subsisting between tile material
and immaterial part of our nature it is
impossible for tlie one to be affected
without the other sharing in the affection.

A melancholy man cannot use his in

of melancholy is pernicious to personal

sociable, genial mcinliera of tbe Georgia

The above mention of our friend and
bite associate, CoL Peeples, wc bud in

porter, and it is transferred to Thx Bi n
iu order that we may endorse the ooiu-
pliment cxpressol in it.
To appreciate Col. Poeples, he must
be known intimately, as wo know him.—
He is oue of nature's best efforts, and a
life of oioue observation aud studious at
tention to meu and books bos vastly im
proved u(kiu nature. Few men ore ins

To say that we admire Col. Peoptea,
would but feebly express our feeling for
him. To aay that we love him would be
er tbe troth, re he embodies all tbe
traits of character calculated to beget
that feeling between man and man. I

fulness and oontentineut surpasses the
choicest productions of art—it throws in

aud the splendors of the stairy heavens.
Second. Cheerfulness is tho antidote
for more than half the ills of life. It is
not tho elaborate prescriptions of Hvp-
pocrutes, hut the simple substitute of
Boluuion, which effects sueii wonderful
cures. Physicians tell 11s that many die
from tho disease of despondency, and
that many recover from acute and ehrouie
complaints by ths force of faith and pa
tience. Hence the manifest propriety of
a cheerful countenance and conversation
in the chamber of aickneas and sorrow.
The effects of cheerluluess on religious
experience opens up a bouudleie Held of
thought, which the time woald fail ns to
traverse to-day. In the fourth chapter
of Dr. Alexander's work on Christian ex
perience you will And this subjeet ably
discussed. Bpirituul distresses ore often
produced by phyeioal eanses. An emi
nent physician onoe said that he never
knew a pious person to die a triumphant
death whose disease was below the dia
phragm.
In the second place, let u« consider
the someus or elements of true cheerful
ness.
Tbe lirst element is constant employ
ment. Activity is as essential to tile
health of the soul as to the health of tho
body. The good old Cecil says, “There
are ninny whfflitat home, nunu.ig them
selves over a fire, and then trace np the
natural effects of solitude, mid want of
air aud exercise, into spiritual desertion."
Cloistered piety is not prodaetiYe. The
grand pmiaoea for tedium rifir is doing
good perpetually. Sweat ef the brow,
sweat rjf the brain, sweat qfthe heart, is in
dispensable to oar highest well being.
The second method of premotiug cheer-
fnlncas Is the selection of suitable society.
We are all, says Locke, a sort of cha
meleon, who take our more) tinge from
the objeota which surround ns. One-halt
of all our gloom is gathered from tbe aou-
nre airs and deapoudiug speech» of
neighbors aud frieuds, whilst a clierrfnl
countenance and an encouraging word
act with magioal power upon thu proa-
trate spirits.
A third thing essential to cheerful,
ness is a good conscience. Thera is no
pusKRin of the huniau breast which par
takes so much of tile atmosphere of per-
ditio-, as that of remorse. Bummer ro
crcutioua and winter dissipations, bril
liant associations and high sounding
panegyrics of friends and flatterers can-
not suenos the oiamore of a guilty con
science. Many a young woman whose
fare ought to ne fresh and Mourning aa
