Amherst College has made Horace Greeley a Doctor of Laws. This is pretty hard on the. old man, as lie will write himself to death in order to establish himself worthy of tire distinction. “Tho dignity of labor” was the subject of a reoent Commencement address by Dr. II. n. Tucker. A fel low out on the public works says he knows a heap more about “ the dig nity'pi labor” than Dr. Tucker does. Theodoro Tilton^speaks of Julia Ward Howe as “the poet-apostle, who seems to belong in about equal por tions between earth and air.” When Julia read that, she spoke of Theo dore as tlie biggest fool in the coun try, then finished her plate of baked beans and pork. The Louisville Courier-Journal says Mr. Stephens “ has gained nine pounds in weight since he has been an editor,” and adds, “ he must have had one of his editorials in bis pocket when he was last weighed.” If the editor of the Courier-Journal were to put one of his editorials in his pocket he would go up like a balloon. Two Tribune correspondents and two men connected with the tele graph company at Washington, have been indicted for contempt of tho United States Senate. If every man who feels a contempt for the present Senate were indicted, tho remainder of tho country would not have time enough in which to hear half the cases. The mystery now agitating the mind of New York is, how Colonel Fisk got wounded. Fisk is satisfied that a shot from a twenty-four pounder must have hit him; but, when reminded that no cannon were used on the “bloody 12th,” he says there should liavo been, and hail there been, the wounded would hare occurred by means of them'; so he will have it so anyhow. Bowen has gone to Charleston to collect evidence of his right to the seat now occupied in Congress by the negro DoLarge. As regards Bowen’s right to the seat, he may or may not be able to establish it; but if no qualification was up, he would have only to furnish a certified copy of tho record of the Washington criminal court and the Iladicals would volo for him at once. AUGUSTA CORRESDONIJKNCK A Passenger Gc<* Bnrtly Scnrcil— The AuEihta Melon Trade. Auuusta, Ga., July 17,1871. Editobs ov tub Sun : Tho terri ble railroad disasters that have been published recently arc always partic ularly fresh in the mind when tho reader of them is traveling by mil, aud an amusing illustration of this was witnessed by some of the occu pants of the sleeping car on Saturday night. Just as tho train on the Georgia Boad was crossing one of tho river bridges, some negroes or other rowdie$ on the bank raised a shout, and one of them exclaimed “ the cars is goin’ over the bridge 1” A gentle man who had undressed, and bad al ready fallen asleep, was awakened by the exclamation of tbo rowdies on the bank, and heard confusedly thut exclamation about tbo cars and the bridge. In a moment’s time—all in white as he was—he was turning the brake on the front platform of the car while in stentorian accents he plead: stop the car! stop the car!” A somewhat stern pressure of the hands of Orion Dozier, -the conductor of the sleeping cur, and his assurance thut the car was all O. K., brought ourex- citcd passenger to a proper under standing of the situation. It would make even the wide awake eyes of your liveliest water melon man extend wider to see the sliow of watermelons in this city. I counted twenty-one wagon loads this morning while walking half a mile through Broad aud Green streets. I am reliably informed that ono fanner near the city had pulled aud shipped from his own farm, up to last Satur day, eleven thousand melons this sen- ihipping the large majority to New York market. Very fine melons retail here at 20 cents each. The number of them shipped from Au gusta this season would appear in credible in print. One shipment of twenty-three car loads was made by ouc train to Savannah for shipment to New York. The people here are growing fat upon them, and every animal that will eat the rinds is fat tening also. The business done in WASHINGTON. The Great Ku-Klux Outrage in New York Discussed—A Dis reputable Party Trick—The Authors of the “New Depar ture” the Instigator* of the Riot, aud Responsible for it Ways that are Dark. [Spocial cornwpomJsnoo of Tim Atlanta Bun] Washington, July 14,1871. The chief topio of conversation hero to-day, and for a day or two past, lias been the emeute in the city of New York on the 12th. The cele bration of the anniversary of the Battle of the Boyne, in 1690, has never disturbed the equanimity of any part of the South to my knowl edge—Mere, politic* never having reached so lovf a standard as. to re quire the deliberate stirring up of the worst passions of man to the extent of setting them to butchering ono another. In this matter the loaders of both parties in Now York are clearly to blame—but much the heavier re sponsibility lies on the shoulders of such so-called Democrats os Hall, Tweed, Belmont, Sweeney, Schell, Marble, and the like—the same with whom originated the famous “New Departure?' This clique of unprincipled and unscrupulous “rule or rum” poli ticians, through their obsequious un derling, Kelso (the superintendent of the police), without the least oolor of authority, saw proper to issuo a per emptory order forbidding tho parade of cortain citizens of the United States in honor of a particular histo rical event This was done, no doubt, in order to secure the undivided vote of their inveterate enemies, who, numerically, arc os fifty to one. That this “order” encouraged the Irish Catholics in their subsequent acts of violence, no ono can question. The later “ order ” of the Governor of the State, promising protection to the Orangemen, could not, after such “ encouragement,” prevent the butch cries which ensued. Such are the views I hear expressed all around me by men of both parties '—and of all religious denominations, not excepting tho Catholics. I have heard many of the latter also (com paring small things with great) liken this mutter to tho conduct of certain prominent politicians of the North before and after the conflict of arms in our late sectional war. Generals Logan and McMillan, of Illinois, Stanton (of blessed memory), Dick inson of New York, Governor Geary of Pennsylvania, Butler of Massa chusetts, and hosts of others, after patting the secessionists upon tho back, and rendering abortive the efforts of more prudent Southern statesmen to prevent tho taking of the fearful leap, were tho very firet men to out-IIerod Herod in savage ven geance to the South—and they are still the bitterest enemies of the Southern people. So, after Hall and lug ooodjutors had, by their unau thorized acts, got the Irish blood up to fever heat, they coolly co-opcruted with the Governor in calling out tho troops, national nnd State, to shoot down their dupes like dogs. Witli respect to the fends, religious or political, between our odopteuciti- zens, originating in the respective countries of their birth, neither this Government nor the Governments of the States, can lawfully make invidi ous distinctions. It has become a practice, under the law of the land, to allow tho celebration of events, however, the memory of them may bo distasteful to large classes of our hete rogeneous population, and why a discrimination in the case of Orange men ? In truth, this matter of “the battle of the Boyne,” is very super ficially understood. The stake at that battle was no less than the liberties of Great Britain. Politically, it estab lished tho famous bill of rights, upon which our own liberties were found ed. It is false to say that the Revolu tion of 1688, was simply a triumph of Protestants over Catholics. Cath olicism, truly enough, was a part of the political policy of James the Sec ond ; but he might, notwithstanding his religion, have continued to reign until he ceased to live, had he not pursued the precise political course which brought the head of his father (a protestant) to the block. In short, impartial history proves that King James, in his desire for despotic sway, levying taxes by his mere will, and disregarding at pleas ure the solenm acts of Parliament, under the “dispensing power” which he assumed, aud relying mainly upon his Catholic subjects to support him iu his usurpations, made a religious controversy inevitable^ and a union of some sort of a church, with tho State, au absolute necessity. Had he succeed ed, Catholicism would have become the established national religion, fora while at least, instead of the Protes tant. Talking yesterday with an intelli gent Irish Catholic, (there is nothing else spoken of hero now but the Ku- Klux outrage in New York), he ful ly admitted the consummate folly of keeping alive here the hatred between those lielligerant parties. lie pro nounced the quarrel as senseless, at this late day, os that between the “Far-Down*’’ aud the “Corkonians,” of which he said no man could ever get at the origin. There is much talk here at this moment of the political effect this business may have. God forbid it should have any, unless it bo tho whatever their den may bo properly called. Tho starting jioint of con servative snccess is tifcir unceremoni ous repudiation. * COMMENCMENT OF EMORY COLLEGE.

Female Suffrage, by Mr. Collins, was a well-timed, courageous charge against—well, you know what—the threatened triumphant march of tho modern Amazons over tho homes of purity and innocence. Mr. Fields’ effort showed much lit erary research, as well os a mind accus tomed to note and reflect tiie “ Influ ence of Natural Scenery on National Character.” After comparing tho chilly North with tho busy West and the beautiful sunny South, by the rep resentative men, he concluded with a prayer for the South, the Niobc of nations, hoping that with tho combin ed efforts of her Stephens, her Bled soe’s and her Ilayncs, she would yet rally to the support of the pure nnd the true!

His effort, second to none of the day, chained tho attention of the thinking portion of the audi ence to'that extent that seemed to say, “Here is a chivalrous knight on wnom Truth has fixed her seal aud stamped her image, and has bidden to go forth, the vindication of her in sulted rights, forgotten dominion and holy sovereignty?’ With few exceptions the efforts were models of elegance in writing and decla-aution, at onoe a testimoni al of the t. lining of the Faculty and the undivided perseverance nnu nat ural power of the students. Immediately succeeding the Junior exhibition came the muno, exhibited a high degree of cul- 'ded taste for tured thought, and a deer speculative politics. It was one of the ablest efforts of the day. He attribut ed the downfall of the French Em pire and French institutions to the undermining influence of religious bigotry and popular speculative infi delity. Mr. Lewis assaulted the growing tendency to the elective system or education, and although he did not produce universal conviction — far from it—debated it with much power. The students of Oxford have for thi-irinheritance a sure success in life. Thev seem to take religion in one hand and women in tho other, and with such hand-maiden and such a guardian angel it would be dishonor to foil. Next followed Mr. Mays, w ho har[)ed on tlie Sphere of Woman. He said Queen Victoria wus for more queenly as a matron in her home at Windsor Castle than when surrounded by Lords and Commons and ambassa dors in Parliament. BISMARCK, the great exponent of Kaiser Wil helm’s tyranny, found an admirer and eulogist eveu in this independent^) lb-public.

Louisvillo, at the falls of the Ohio, is a thriving city of 120,000 inhabitants, and together with Jeffersonville end New Al bany, on tho Indiana aide of the river, probably nnmben 160,000. The wator power of the folia, tbe river communication, the great Ohio river es- nal and tho railroads centering here—all tend to mako it a very important point. In manufactures of iron, glees and chcmioal compositions, and tobacco, and in packing pork, it has long held a high position. Tn pome spcsioEtics—for in stance, tho curing of hams—it claims tho largret establishment in tho United States. A new mnnufocturo—that of steam fire engines—has recentlybeen started here. In many important respeete tho stoam fire engines manufactured here have proved superior to thoso made iu Cincinnati. Binoe tho oloso of tho war, Louisville has taken a vigorous bound upward. Its many advantages for business purposes aro seen and approci atod by outsiders, and its population has increased with great rapidity. Daring the spring, summer and au tumn, scarcely a week passes without a large auction solo of business lots in the snbnrbs. During the week just post the pales of such lots at anction have, aggre gated 1800, and the aggregate earn paid for them amounts to four or five hundred thousand dollars. Most of these par chases havo been in ado by residents of tbo city, who oontcmplato building. Tlie dally papers of the city ore the Courier-Journal (George D.

The largest denomination hero is, I be lieve, the rreebyterians—Southern and Northern. Tho First Church has for pastor Bov. Dr. Samuel B. Wilson, the woll known antkor of the “Declaration and Testimony.” Tho Second Cbnreh enjoys tku ministrations of Ber. Dr. Stuart Bobinson, a profound thinker and thorough student, whose work on redemp tion has given him a trans-Atiantio repu tation. Ho is a man who has rodnood theology to a soienco, and deals with every subject with tho skill of a ma-.ter workman. Of the Nothern oharohoe Bev. Dr. Humphery is pastor of one, Bev. Mr. Bobcrtson, of Springfield, lllinos, has recently boon oalled to another. Besides these four churches there aro numorous other churches und missions in various parte of tbo city, some of them depend ent on the larger eharohee. Ti ore are several large and floarlahing Methodist Gkurohes here. Tho Broad way Church, of which Bev. Dr. Bivora ia pastor, is one of the largest and most ac tive. The Baptists and the Campbellites (or Christians) aro also numerous, as well meats are handsomely furnished, an* the numorous parlors present the Behcet specimens of art. The table* groan un der the comforts and luinries gathered from nil earth’s islands and eontineiita — The cooking apartments, through which I have just been conducted, are neat and oltmn as a scotch cottage; and the laundry is the most remarkable of it* kind—being capable of washing tan thousand pieces a day. Time will not allow metodeaoend to details. Tho Kimball House is much dimmed hero, and is by some suppoeed to bo oqaal to the Gelt House iu the magni tude of its proportions, and in the beauty and splendor of its decorations. Bnt I prefer not to take sides in tbto Controver sy. They ore both the pride of their respective cities. I must not forget to mention that the ohiet attraction of tbe Galt House is the enterprising and accomplished proprie tor, Coh J. P. Johnson, and hisenUivated and elegant lady.

Tho men seem to be ongrossed in business; tho ladies in taking oore of their liousos and grounds; the young ladies in providing for tbe exigencies of their wardrobe ; while the voang gentle men, in hoars not devoted to bnsineep, seem to be ever on the hunt for eligible fathers-in-law. They don't have time to soo the sights. They have no perk worthy of tho name. Cave Hill Ceme tery is, however, a tasteful and beautiful resort. There aro asylums, prisons, a house of refuge, water-works, gas-works, hospitm a penitentiary ou tlie other side of tti river; but these institutions seem to ti kept for use rather than to bo shown oil.
