Looking at the geography and nat- Published by the Atlanta Sun Pahllahing uni resource* of Northern Georgia, and the Hgidn adjacent, we find that Atlanta i»ou the right gpot, (orrery nearty go), tat a huge inland town, even If railroads or auch improved methods ot , cfnreyanoe had never been invented. If we had never had railroad!, perhaps Marietta would hive been the preponderating town, and would have been aa large aa At lanta now i*. Mo section of country as large, an old, and as populous, in civilized countries can be found, without at least 6nfe large town. Our railroads centering here, and this pointjbeing equally healthy, of course fixed the preponderating town upon this spot Now if Atlanta had cdntroled all the railroads centering here, and had so fifed the rates of freight from different, points to this place so as simply to give ns a fair and equal chanoe with other towns—not giving any unfair advantage, but only putting us on an equal footing, we Would to-day have had a hundred thousand enter prising inhabitants,' instead of thirty thousand. Atlanta is healthy, having very su perior advantages in this respect— mstng men from all parts of the United States and the civilized world, observing this fact, have come here, bringing with them their capi tal and energy. It promises the chance of long life—if not as rapidly accumulating fortunes as some other points ; but while this is true, thou sands upon thousands of sharpsiglit- ed men who would have come here have gone elsewhere for no other rea son than the simple fact that our lines of transportation, which consti tute the arms and legs of all large cities—are entirely in the hands of and controled by rival towns. Our position is a grand one—about equi-diatant from the great marts o trade on all sides—the great points of snpply and demand; and if we only had an equal chanoe in the contest for supremacy, we could accomplish wonders. Now is our time to put ourselves in position to secure this equality with other and rival cities.— If we secure this, the future record of men failing in business in Atlanta will be greatly diminished, and onr population and manufactures will in crease with an unprecedented rttio.

Editor* of the Sun: This place is now the scene of unusual stir, activi ty and life. The commencement ex ercises of the West Point Female Gol- fegeare in progress, and constitute quite an object of attraction. By the Way, I think it quite a com pliment to your energy and enter prise, that you snooeeded in giving to your readers on Monday morning, a synopsis of the sermon of Dr. Wills, delivered here the day before, and was at first inclined to think that every thing was not just as it seemed. Since Wf afrival here, however, I have seen the man who furnished the notes and also the man who forwarded them, and all soeptteism ha* vanished. But yesterday there was a oontest among the members of the Sophomore class in reading for a prise. It was not my good fortune to witness the read ing, but I am informed by competent judges, that it waa very fine; the young ladies doing themselves great credit, and honor to" the careful train ing which they have received. The suooeetful contestant for the prise, in the opinion of tt# judges, was Miss Mattie Eady. It was presented by Mr, O. A Bull, of the La Grange Mato High School, ia an address which was eminently chaste, scholar ly and elaario. •- Then came wo exercise which wsa not in &e programme. Mr. W. H. induced, upon urgent solicitation, to recite that very difficult piece, “The Maniac.” Glowing praises of the declamation are in the mouths of all. Your correspondent was present at the Sophomore declamation of Ogle thorpe University, and heard the young man speak the same piece, and though he lias heard many attempt it, among them thoroughly trained elocutionists, he has never heard Mr. Venable’s rendition of it surpassed. Last night the little drama of “The Culprit Fay,” was acted by the young ladies before a large audience with pleasing effect. To-day the Junior exhibition took place. The young ladies acquitted themselves with very great credit Their performances showed that read ing, a branch of training hitherto much neglected, is now receiving at tention in our schools. Prof. W. C. Stubbs, of East Ala bama Male College, followed in an ad dress, upon the Women of the South, a subject interesting to all, but espe cially to the gentlemen of “the singu lar number,” of which class the speak er said he was one. The address con tained many fine points. The closing oxercisc of the morn ing was the reading of a poem by the Rev. E. P. Birch. Of this, your cor respondent will not speak. It is herewith enclosed and will speak for itself. West Point is a live place. Math ematicians say that “a point is that which has neither length, breadth or thickness.” Deduction: West Point is not an orthodox point. Of this and other things, more anon. Faithful. From the Butler County (Ohio) Democrat, July 6. ’71 Hon. Alex. II. Stephens. Wc are highly gratified nt seeing it an nounced that lion. Alex. II. Stephens Atlanta Sun. No man in the “ Nu- has taken the editorial charge of Thk tion ” has better abilities, being a pro found legal scholar, a pure statesman, and well read upon every subject which can possibly engage the human understanding. The Cincinnati Com mercial, in referring to Mr. Stephens assuming the editorial charge of the Sun, says: The position of the Sun will be that the Government of the United States is a -Confederated’ or ‘Federal Re public,' formed by the States, possessing in itself no inherent sovereignty, but that all its powers—wbioh are specific and limited—are held by delegation from the several States, ami that the States are absolutely sovereign in the exercise of all reserved or undelegated powers.” The Commercial continues : “This formula is tolerably familiar to the American people ; Mr. Stephens will not succeed in making them under stand that they are not a nation, with an autonomy for wbioh they are not indebt ed to the States, and which is derived from the people themselves. As between tbe National Government and the States themselves, they will be quite willing to ooneede that snch powers as the States have not snrrendered still belong to them; sovereignty, exoept in a very limited sense, being one of the powers which was delegated.” Mr. Stephens may not be able to make the people believe that they are not a “nation.” That wonld be a dif ficult task indeed, surrounded as they are with imperial power, subjected to robbery, oppression and wrong, over shadowed by tbe Force and Ku-Klux bills, the power to susi>end the liberty protecting writ of habeas corpus in she hands of an unscrupulous Presi dent, and bayonets in the hands of his minions to enforce his arbitrary will. We say, with all this evidence before their eyes, it would be impossi ble to “succeed iu making the people understand that the Federal Republic public has not been changed into a “nation”—a horrid despotism. “With an autonomy for which they are not indebted to tbe States, and which is derived from Hie consent of the people themselves,” is simply non sense. It is true the “autonomy” or right of self-government belongs to every individual, independent of the States. But what are States except political communities of sulf-goveru- - g peoples? And are not States If-governing, sovereign bodies by virtue of tbe fact that they (the States) arc composed of self-govern ing individuals ? What power or right was over given to the “nation” that was not derived from the States, either voluntary or by force t How could the people, as a whole, confer authority upon the “nation” outside and independent of the States of which they were citi zens ? The idea that the jieople had in the “nation” an autonomy not de rived from the States is t|ie thinnest, weakest and most miserable attempt to bolster up imperialism, that we have yet seen produced by a man pos sessing common sense and common honesty. But the astute editor of the Com mercial is “quite willing to concede that such powers ;is the States have not surrendered still belong to them; sovereignty, except in a very limited ie, being one of the powers dele gated.” Well, the man who can pen snch a sentence is either a dishonest knave, or an ignorant ass. In the first place, he says the States “turret* rendered powers,” then that they, “delegated sovereignty 1 ” 0, hfighty Commercial! know ye not that therc is a wide difference between surren dered and delegatfd t and that saver exoept in a limited sense T Hucis ‘ Why, sovereignty, but the totality of powers vested in qtates of individ uals ? The Commercial perhaps does not know that tbeit is a difference between the sovereignty of the States and the rights at the- plates ? Sover eignty is the inherent and inalienable attribute of tite people constituting a State—the govsrnmtnt-making, and the source of all ppwer in govern ments,. The rights ot a State consists iu the political power that its sover eign people have agreed it should ex ercise in the State government over them. Sovereignty, therefore, can not be divided, as it is inseverable from individuals, or communities of peoples. The States did not delegate sover eignty oh all to the “nation,” but merely a portion of the political rights which their peoples conferred upon them as States. And these they did not surrender, but merely deli ted, deputed, entrusted to the Fei al Government, through and by the terms of the Constitution, to be used for the States united. This is all there is of it. Wc advise the Commercial to study Constitutional law, and our American system of government, be fore it again ventures out of its shell, to sail upon unknown waters, or it will eternally flounder in the mud. From the Savannah Republican, July 7th. Mr. Stephens and Pa rtf Issues. We published yesterday an edito rial from Thf, Atlanta 8cN,in which Mr. Stephens, writing over his in itials, gives in full his views of the issues upon which the next Presiden tial campaign should be fought. We doubt il there is a sentiment in the article to which any Southern man would refuse his sanction. We all hold exactly the same opinion of the constitutional amendments and the reconstruction laws that Mr. Stephons does. Wo think we may go still far ther and say that every honest Dem ocrat at the North entertains exactly the-same opinion of those revolution ary and violent measures. Where, then, does the difference exist ? Let us exumiue into this question a little, for. it is evident a popular impression prevails, and prevails with Mr. Ste phens, that there is some radical, vital difference of opinion and principle between himself and his followers, on the one side, and the Democracy of the North on the other. Wc have been reading most dili gently both sides to the controversy, and using all the discrimination wc lossess in order to fix upon the exact ine of demarkation between the dis putants ; bnt, for the life of ub, we cannot sec that they are bo wide apart after all, or indeed that any essential practical difference of either opinion or policy can be found between the two. By way of seeing a little more clearly into the matter, let us com pare this manifesto of Mr. Stephens with the views of tbe Pennsylvania Democracy, as promulgated in the recent address of their State Central Committee, who are presumed to re present correctly the late Convention (of which Mr. Stephens complains so much) and the rank and file of the party in that State. It is said to have Wn written by Hon. Jeremiah 8. Black, one of the ablest statesmen and truest patriots that this country has produced. We annex an extract from that address which embodies its gen eral temper and sentiment, premising that reference is had to the constitu tional amendments, as it is under stood that Mr. Stephens considers himself in harmony with the North ern Democracy as regards all other measures. The address says: “When we speak of th* Federal con stitution, we mean the whole instrument, with all th* amendments, and acknowl edge the eqnal obligation of every part Severri tf those amenihnenUi were carried hg bnilefm-oe, and hy frauds upon the pub lic so glaring (U lo lake from Uunr au thors all dairy upon our rest wl. 13 ut wc 0*n- not deny that toey have actually beoome a part of the Constitution; nor ran we avoid that fast, or get behind it by show ing the corrupt mieoonduot of th* men who at time controlled Congress and mastered the State Legialaturea. Who- soever swears to support the Coneutution most perform all that is ‘nominated in the bond.’ Any change which experience and reason shall prove lobe desirable must be made in the jrrtrecriheil way, and not by revolutionary or disorderly means." So much for the address. Mr. Stephens presents his views on the same identical question in the edito rial published yesterday, as will be seen from the following extract: "Jffne we advise and counsel no forcible resistance Vr any (f these usurpations. IFe e prescribed way, and not hy revo lutionary or disorderly means. This remarkable concurrence ap pears to us to sweep away all ground of real difference and controversy.— The Pennsylvania Democracy con demn the usurpations as much as Mr. Stephens does, and they counsel obedience to them while they exist, as a matter of necessity, juer as he does. They nowhere declare that they are fixed upon the oountry finally and forever as nocossary results of the war, but hold them as they do the rest of the Constitution—subject to repeal “in the prescribed way.” Nor are they ignored as questions no longer of interest, for this very address brings them forward, and declares them the result of “brute force" and “frauds upon the public will.” And so do the resolutions of the Pennsyl vania Convention. Then, if Mr. Stephens and the Pennsylvania Democracy both hold the same opinion of the amendments, denounce them with the same just feeling of indignation, agree to obey them while they have the form of law, and look to the constitutionally “pre scribed way” to get rid of them, we oannot see why there should he war between him and them. Mr. Stephens, in speakingof these amendments, makes the Pennsyl vania Convention say they were adopted “in the manner and by the authority constitutionally appointed.” We think he is mistaken in this,— We have not the platform at our command, and hare searched in rain for it in onr exchanges, bet we have no recollection of snch language as lielonging to it, and think it wifi not be found in tbe resolutions as finally adopted. We cannot see how snon language can be mude to consist with the universally declared sentiments of the Northern Democracy, in Penn sylvania and elsewhere, regarding the mewimif the adoption of th ose i.m :. aments, nil being agreed that it was the work of force and fraud, and tud done in the “manner conltitntienally appointed.” We are free to say, how ever, that, used by whomsoever it may be, tbe Pennsylvania Democracy or anybody else, every honest man at the South will unite with Mr. Ste phens in denouncing the language os uttcrlv false. aij/nty cannot be divided 1 rjoihj.1 with power in execute ihern. But we do insist, that in itonounoing the totter and i—» gt tbme usurpetions, the voioe ot the people shall not be silenced against the former end greater. We moreover mneh more insist, thst the people shall not beteagfct to belter* or assort, for any purpose whatever, that anj of these usurpations have been nothing bnt acts ot settlement of queetiona growing out othe war or its reaulh; and above ell, we insist, that the osnrpatinas shall never be recognised by the *t the |m>Us, as a settlement of all question* ' In the man ner and by the authority coiadihdioiuilly ap- ^Heto we see the Pennsylvania De meerwiy bo far from approving or en dorsing the constitutional amend ments, do “denounce ” them as hav ing been “oarried by brute, force and by frauds upon the public will so glaring as to take from their au thors all claims upon our respect.” Has Mf. Stephens or any one else ever uttered a mort unqualified de nunciation of those measures and the mariner Of their incorporation with the Constitution t Wisy both apes eignly one of the powers delegated, come a part of the Constitution;” and they likewise agree that they are to be obeyed and respected so long as they are there. Mr. Stephons, on this point, says: “We advise and counsel no forcible resistance to any of these usurpations. We advise obedience to them so long as they hare the forms of law, as judicially expoun ded,” Ac. From this we are inevita bly led to the conclusion that they al- on the mode of getting rid of these amendments, vis ^ a by the Pennsylvania Committee, “ip tne prescribed w GEORGIA NEWS.
