JoliNbON, buperuitendenU WHAT THE PA PE US SAY Of Mr. Sli'iihcus' t'onnrctluu with The Sun. From the Alt tauy (Gad Raw*. > i The Atl.infh Situ. The announcement of Mr. Stephens* connection with The bun, as part owner uul political editor, place* that already popular paper in tho very front rank of Southern journalism. Mr. Stephens is one of the profotindest thinkers of the times, ami lms no superior ou the contin ent as a political writer. W« conQfratu late our friends Slights and Smith ou the valuable and noble ac- qnisitiou, and cordially welcome the great txpoundcr and defender of States’ rights Hid i istitutioual liberty, to the realms Hi of the Fourth Instate. His advent is au epoch iu journalism, and we feel houored l»y the association. From the Entonton Pres* A Messenger. A. If. Stephens. In another column we give to our readers, many of whom probably will have no other opportunity of seeing it, a i^opy of the “Salutatory” written bpr tho Sage of Liberty Hall, on the occasion of his assuming editorial control of the po litical department of The Atlanta Sun. This new arrangement forms an epoch in the history of journalism in this this section, this coantrv&^hwflfAronuu and where do you fiutirfSuch another edi tor? When has oue like this ever woild- ed the pen? Many circumstances combine to render Mr. Stephens one of tho most remarka ble and interesting of men. IIis power ful intellect, as contrasted with his al most unheard of physical feebleness—a feebleness and attenuation that were al ways wonderful, even iu his beat days, ami that now constitute him a living miracle— the prominent part he has acted iu the history of the American people; the fiery impetuosity of his original style, and lus preseut habit of calm, conscious power, and wisdom; the invective and sarcasm that used to lender him the feared and formidable debater, and tho utter abscuoe f anything like personality that charac tcrises everything emanating from him at tin' present day—these are a few of the points that designate him us an object of curious enquiry. He is one of tho few politicians living that are devoted to abstract principle alone. Wo are almost, ready to Bay that he is the only oue within the range of our knowledge. It is well nigh utu rly iin possible for a human being to be pci feet y free from the promptings of personal ambition, or the influence of personal tipathy or favoritism, except under just the peculiar circumstances by which Mr. Stephens is surrounded. lie has out lived the stormy passions, the tierce hos tilities often engendered by political strife. He is neither seeking offie waiting for it, as a great many are who do not “seek” it. We sincerely believe that his only earthly ambition is to appear now to the world, and to go down to pos terity, os an exponent of eternal, uudy ing truth J He reminds.us of tlm Dogo of "'eiiice, when tho latter says: “I i-p- ak to Time »nil to Eternity, Of h Inch I grow a portion—not to man." One feature iu the present character of nr Statesman, already alluded U*, which lioiild commend itself to all uspiniuts, is bis strict avoidance of personal abuse of others. While waging uncompromising war on opinion*, he seldom, or never dis parages men, or questions their motives, supply because they differ with him. If his example were imitated, how different .v’ould intercourse be, among those who issume the leadership of tin* people, and what a happy influence would bo exerted upon the people themselves ! We believe Mr. Stephens, in advocat ing tho theories announced by him in his ;Jututorv, is doing batth* for the Right. Wo believe that Mr. Stephens, iu refrain ing from personal abuse to those who en tertain views different from his own, pur- s a course that should commend itself to all who arc ambitious of attaining position, nml weight, and influence. We believe that Mr. Stephens, iu steadily op posing any further resort to arms iu sup port of Southern principles, is occupy ing he only touablc ground—the only sound position left to us. In short, we believe that Mr. Stephens, in pursuing just the lourse that he does, commands more re spect, from his political antagonists, as well ns friends, thau any party leader now living. In proof of this, we may mention the. fact that, as this wise man’s opinions, n connection with his suavity of manner, his personal habits of kindness, and his benevolence to tho poor (always clmrnc- ; eristic of the man, by the way, oven when as something like a fierce partisan) have become better and better known, so .terminal reflections on him, evonfrom the North, have become fewer and tower till, it length, they have almost entirely ceast-d; uud it has arrived at that pass hat the pestilent class of Yankee news paper correspondents themselves, while hiding fault with his principles, have naught to say uguiust tim man, who cu- ertains opinions as to government that hey look on as almost treason. Is not this evidence in favor of tho puri- y of his character, such as cannot a- adduced iu the cose of any other cquully prominent Statesman now in life! the country, but tncnUtflt/ one of the lutgeM men in America; in that he has tiie advantage of the Heral i man, or any other man that attempts to sling ink slang and ridicule at him. We are not surprised to find men that become nerv ous and “out of sorts*’ ou seeing the cut of a rooster in a Democratic newspaper in election times, crowing over a Demo cratic victory ovor Radicalism, abasing such men as Jefferson Davis, Alexander H. Stephens, Toombs and others. They do not ai.d never did like anything that looked and tulkod true Democracy. Our accept the situation friends (!)had just as well make up their minds to fall back into line from their enhance move ment in the »wrong direction, and go to work earnestly for the aooomplishmcnt of the downfall and utter destruction of the Radical party, or cut loose entirely, and openly nlligu themselves with the Conservative soreheads” of the Radical party, and roll up their sleeves and fight ~ it “ — for Horace Greeley, tho Mechanic’s Candidate.” “Farmer’s and .1:1 tla* Hlielbjviil* (Tctin.) AnwM-l.'An-IU'TlPw, 80. “liuum II, Hoar IU Me Us ’Km.** The fact that Alexander H. Stephens has become the political editor of Tiie Atlanta (Ua.) Sen, has produced quite a flutter among the “departed” spirits of IVullaudighum Democracy. They antici pated having nu easy thing of it in de coying oil the entire rank and file of the party into elute approximation with tin Radical lines, but they have l>eeu sadly (appointed, uud it fills them with lisuppointcd. amaze ment and alarm, to see the ablest .statesmen and tho most influential men of the country coming forward and tak ing position in the front ranks to battle for the preservation of the Constitution md the time-honored prm -^ tes of the l)< mo. rat.ic party. The C ’hunbia Jlcrahl- of Lat Friday undertakes to throw i<ome of ita filthy slime at Mr. Stephens, and asserts that no “lias capped the climax of folly, and iri now the editor of The Atlanta Hun. If Mr. Stephens is seeking the easiest md quickest means of ‘playing out,’ we hiuk he has hit* it.” The lltrabi asserts ilull “n» M.4pa|H-i iniit*H*M make KbiU**tiMm it is tin ir busiiiCMR.”i Wo woukt like to know how tunny statesmen the editor of the ILraM has made since nA connec tion with the press ?

Mr. Stfjmiens liaa published his salu tatory, as ]H>liticol editor of the Atlanta, Georgia, Daily Hun. His name, as editor, will give weight and national characU-r to that journal, as it will be the exponent of the political sentiments of a larj portion of tho people of the Hunt whose views are in accord with that statesman. As a clear thinker, vigorous and convincing writer, theconutry affords but few equals. He has as thoroughly studied tho history of ‘this government, the mode of its formation, the principles upon which it is based, and tin* meaning and force of the language of the Con stitution, in which those principle an embodied, us any statesman this country nas produced. With his great iut*dloct, he has brought to the study of these sub jects, a most wonderful industry, and iu his history of the Causes of tho War, has, if it were possible, given a perfect analysis of our system of government, backed with an argumont, aud au urraj of historical facts which completely ex hftust tho subject Ho believes, what he writes, and writes to impress upon others truth which he believes esst ntmi to the existence of our farm of government.

The people of Chattanooga, who have hitherto sustained Mr. Stanton through thick and thin, now that he has gone back ujiou all his pledget iver feel nnd promises to them, will never feel that their interests are sale while he is managing tho Alabama & Chatta nooga Railroad. This was tho unani mous opinion along the streets yes terday. Mr. Stanton was going about the streets yesterday denouncing Ihe peo ple of Cattanooga as s.wimllers, thieves, etc., because they would not release the security for the debt due them by the read. Singularly enough, at the sometime the people of Chattanooga are denouncing Stanton as a swindler just because he won’t pay liis debts. Now that oureyes have at last been opened to our mistake in supporting Mr. Stanton so lung and in view of so many broken promises, wo have been promised a large number of interest ing fuels oonocriiing the Alabama & (Jliuttiiuooga Railroad which will throw some light upon a very dark suljjoc-t. it should bo remembered that J. 0.
