The Atlanta New Kra—The
Menlffonierr Advertiser—The
New Departure.
Wo Jay before our readers tlic fo)
lowing article from our Bodical neigh
bor, the Xete Era. It is a common’
tary upon, and an answer to the po
sition assumed by the Montgomery
Advertiser in its advocacy and de
fense of the “ New Departure.” The
uiiicle is short, but it covers the
whole ground, and seems to us to ut
terly demolish the position of the Ad
vertiser, in assuming, as a Democrat
ic organ, to defend the “ New Depart
ure.”
The time is rapidly approaching
when, not only the “ Sentinels upon
the Watcbtower,” but every man in
the country, whether connected with
the press or not, must choose under
which banner ho will enter the great
struggle of 1872, Will the editor of
the Advertiser enter under the ban
ner of sanctioning open and palpable
usurpations of popular rights, or the
banner of those who ooudemu these
outrages? There are but two sides
to this question, aud every man must
bike position on ono or the other.
The Xew Era professes to
be perfectly satislied with the
position taken by the Advertiser.
This, of course, is not surprising
to any one, who looks to principles,
as the proper last's of party action
and association.
It is a little cool, however, for the
New Era, to speak of those as “
practicahhs’ and “revolutionists'’
ttie people* through flid'ttilloCliox, to
arrest the consummation of what is
admitted by it, wo believe, as well as
by the Advertiser, to have been pro
jected entirely outside of the Consti
tution, or at least, what no one with
any rognrd for truth, will deny was,
not only in its inception, hut through
out, uttorly revolutionary in its char
acter, aims and objeots!
ThiB is certainly* coolness border
ing npon impudence, when addressed
to an intelligent, as well as a free
people—those who know their rights
and, knowing them, dare, "peaceably
at least,” to maintain them.
A. II. S.
'Ilia Montgomery .blrerllxr, defending
Its position on the “New Departure”
platform, asks—
Whit then I. Dili Now Ih-pArhin- .txrnt which ■*)
much false aud flatulent rhetoric ha* biou expended?
We affirm that Ita whole meaning la tlita, that llio
Democratic narty make* a public and formal doola-
ration that it dor* not intend to maintain before the
peoplo that the XlVth ami XVth Amendment* to tho
Omatituition are “revahitlouar/, mill aud void," hue
that the Democrats party regard* aud will treat
these Amendments as valid parti of the uonsUtatiofi.
This Is tbo beginning aud cud of the New Departure!
And this is tho embodiment of tho
“beginning.tho end, and tlio middle”af
all that Bouthuru ltepublioana oau oak,
or have ever asked. Southern man who
havo aotod with, and been of the Repub
lican party, have never gouo beyond thia.
It embodies fhe essence of their “ De
parture " in 1607, and it is just where
they stand to-day. The only difference
between them and thoso who »oir “ac
cept the situation,” is one as to time only.
Tho principle is procisoly the same, and
tho difference in party name amounts to
nothing. They can, and doubtless will,
act together henoeforth, as against the
impractieablosand revolutionists of both
factions It is tho only truly conserva
tive ground. It avoids tho extremes on
either hand, aud in this responds to the
common sense of the American people
everywhere, independent of mere pony
names

Long Branco, July 20, 1871.
When I promised to send you a letter
occasionally, a* we puffed a cigar on that
pleasant evening in the vestibule of the
• “Kimball,” I did sot comprehend at the
time the rashness ol that promise. Tom
people of the professional quill do thsaB
things easily, but it is ont of my line.
Bat beset at yon.
In one of the Kimball sleeping ears,
when I enaoonsed myself «t AtUnta,
the trip to Bristol ia quickly made;
thence to Washington by the same pro
ems. is equally a small alkie, foe in this
Pngnarive egs we W*i frantically
through the country (and through life)
b«*ak-nock speed, whir-rdng and bus
ring along as if it wero absolutely neces
sary for ns to get somewhere Id just about
twenty minutes. Well, e day in Wash
ington suffices to illastmta the intensely
uninteresting condition of the place now.
With the portable government at Long
Branch, there was not an objeet worthy
of interest save the Kn-Klux Committee,
and I had no desire whatever to see this
high imperial Commission. Took by
the hand a few Georgians who were there
as witnesses, among them Tom. Harde
man, Judge Wright, Christy, Ranse
Wright aud others. In my opinion tho
Radical portion of that Committee did
not derive a vast deal of comfort from
the cvidcnco of those gentlemen.
From Washington to Baltimore, Phila
delphia and New York, the ride is de
lightful and qnickly over. Baltimore
looks guy, Philadelphia staid, and New
York effervescent — pushing, steaming
and restless. The Grand Central is the
rendezvous of Southern peoplo mostly,
lint you meet them everywhere in the
city. Of my rambles throughout Goth
am, and of a charming day I spent at
Central Park with a gifted lady of yonr
city, I havo not time to speak, nor would
yonr readers ho edified thereby. I may
say, however, that I mot with an old ar
my officer, and one who did good service
in our army, who told mo something of
Grant—was with him in Meiico, and
knew him intimately. Says Grant was a
good sort of fellow, and very companion
able—gavo no oort of ovidcnce of ability
at that time, bnt had great firmness
of character as a yonng man
was fond of a cocktail, a good cigar, aud
would go it “heavy” sometimes on the
Mexican game called monte, as well as
American fora, ot which some Georgians
know something. Lieut. Grant's star
was not in the ascendant in those days,
aud ho had a rough time of it, until final
ly, after the close of that war, and tho ar
my returned homo, he was stationed in
Oregon, where liis career as an officer en
ded iu drunkenness I From that period
my informant could not trace him be
yond the rumors of liis tannery experi
ments, his wood-hauling exploits, Ac.—
He next appeared on tho stage about
Cairo, duriug tho late war. And here
I’ll drop Gen. Grant for tho present,
I grew weary of New York in one
week, and then what, was the question ?
Not up into Massachusetts among Bon.
Butler's spiudlos, or the cobblers of
Henry Wilson, nor over into Jersey,
where cider is tho chief product, forme;
and I scratched my head in a complete
stato of non-plusscdness. Where should
a Southern man, tired of Now York, af
ter trausucling his business, and liuviug
a few dollars aud a week's leisure left, go?
A friend said to Long Branch.
Aud to Ling Branch I carno. I’m hero
now.
A good hotel, a fiuo beach, and mag
nificent drives, much fashion, a great
deal of shoddy, jxtreenue; and fancy

portable government. Gen. Grant in hero,
and some of the other officials, not
to mention that frightful swarm of gad
fly politicians ever to be found where roy
alty treads. At Washington, when there
is an office to bo bad, or a political job to
“do up," the attacking party ordinarily
makes an assault directly iu the front,
bat here it is a sorios of flank movmcnts
and raids in the rear—a “social’ is gotten
up, in which eouto pretty woman in as
signed a role, or a yacht ride, a horseback
gallop, or something of tho kind. The
President is a vast beleagured fortress
all the while, in which his relations make
more breaches than any body else!
Well I and now I am coming to
tho point. Yon will givo mo cred
it for the accomplishment of that
which few havo had tho hardihood to un
dertake. I havo “intorviewod” the Pres
ident iu n mast extraordinary manner, as
you will sec, and have mado him talk—
and it waa not all horse-talk either, os
yon will sec—though tho subject of tuscs
did oomo up incidentally. I, a quiot,
unobtrusive citizen of Uoorgia, havo ont-
Bohouiiauod anything you over saw or
hoard of, completely eclipsing thoso per
sistent chaps of tho London and Now York
press who, within tho post year or two,
wont iu rigorous quost of Bob. Toombs,
Ben. Hill, Stephens and others. Well,
how did this como about ? you ask. I
will toll you:
I saw General Grant repoatodly on tho
drives, mid became possessed of a desire
to “speak with him.” Now, sir, siuoo
boyhood's bright and happy days
havo had singular good luck
in tho achievement of ends both difficult
and delicate. I suppose almost any
one might be introduced to, and speak a
few commonplace words with, Gen.
Grant, by taking the proper ooarse; but
tho idea with me was to “draw him out,"
dig all around him, and find out some
thing. Few men now olive liavo ever
done that, and tho reasons ore good
enough, for in the first plaoe the Preri
dent ot these United States don’t know
more than a President ought to know;
and secondly (and here is the secret of
his reticence) he knows just enough to
know how to keep people from knowing
whaths don’t know! But I “went for”
him; aud you, and your readers shall
have tho result of that expedition
just os it occarred. Fortunately I
had met here among tho gayest
Of tho jdeasuro-tockcre, an army officer
not lock ago on duty in Georgia, a gen
tleman of culture, with whom I had fre
quently been thrown in association, bnsi-
nud otherwise. He kindly proffered
to present mo to the President, and the
timo was fixed for 10 o'clock, to-day. I
was so elated with tho prospect before
me, and thinking of what topical ahonld
introduce when the presentation should
occur, Y locked my door, stretched my
self npon a sob, and fell into a train of
deep meditation, whioh became seaieely
distinguishable from sleep. In this con
dition I had a “dream which was not all
adman.”
The hour for the presentation seemed
to have arrived; my friend, the Colonel,
had called according to appointment,
and wo both made our departure to tho
Preeident's quarters. We found General
Grant in hia private office. His seeming
leisure indicated that the morning’s busi
ness had been transacted. Visitors, oth
er than ourselves, there were none.
General, good morning,” said my
friend. “Permit me to introduce Mr.
, of Georgia, a very unrepentant reb
el, but to whoee acquaintance and kind
offices many old officers in Georgia recur
with pleosare."
‘Happy to meet yon, Mr. ; tuke
neats,gentlemen. The morning is pleasant,
and I am more free of official demands
to-day than I havo been for a month
Colonel, when do you return to yonr com
mand ? I wish to send a personal mes
sage to Gen. , through yon on yonr
return.”
To which my army friend replied, when
Gen. Grant turned to me:
Well, sir, a little warm in Georgia
just now, I guess, and yon are here to
snuff tho sen breeze.”
Yes, General, and to meet old t/ty
quaiutances and make new friends. I
have always believed, sir, that if
those who wero urrayed against eucli
other in the luto war could meet
oftener, and know eaoli other better,
sectional animosities would disappear al
together in a biiof while. When I first
met, in Georgia, the Colonel hero, I was
in no frame of mind fo approach him in
a friendly spirit, even upon matters of
business ; but you see we are quite good
friends now, and wero bo long before ho
left my State ; and I must confess, Gen
eral, that we all felt mnch more kindly
towards yon after reading your report on
tho State of affuirs in tho South soon af
ter the war closed than we did before."
Here the President gavo a puff of his
cigar, and assumed tho meditative air for
a moment, then answered : “Bnt your
people have asaumedran unfriendly posi
tion, both to the Administration and to
myself.. You gavo a majority of 00,000
at the lust election, iu opposition to Re
publicanism, though, in other particulars,
Georgia stands deservedly high as one of
tho reconstructed States, and it gives me
ploosure to meot her citizens.”
"Thank yon. General, for the compli
ment Tho 50,000 against Republican
ism to which yon allude may admit of
some explanation. It was not against
you personally that it was given, and per
mit me to say that tho party to which you
belong is, in many respects, one thing in
the North and quite another thing iu the
South. I will not call iu question the
honest intentions of a portion of the Re
publican party in tho North, but among
them in tho South honesty nnd real lovo
of country is rarely to bo met with. Very
few of your party at tho North under
stand us, whilo thoso of tho South who
are acting with your party understand us
very well, hut for purposes of plunder it
suits them to misrepresent us. Sir,
aud I disclaim any disrespect to yen, but
of tho Republican party iu tbe Sontli are
mostly composed of the bummers of your
army, who have nought but their own
merconury ends tonibservo; and such bus
been their deportment that the honest,
well meaning masses of Georgia look
upon tho Republican party with very
great disfavor. And, General, allow me
to say that the charges of disloyalty which
these meu are continually ringing iu your
ears, so far as they havo foundation at
all, rests solely npon tkn protests of the
Southern people, not against tho Gen
ml Government, but uguiust iho vile
horde of bumme.rs who arc so fearfully
misruling them.”
‘Ah," said Geu. Grant, nnd hero taking
a fresh cigar, nnd offering one to each of
liis visitors. It was plain that ho had
brought mo out npon an unpleasant sub
jeet
‘My friend there,” pointing to the
Colonel who had iutrodnood mo, ‘ ‘can
hear witness, General, to tho fact that
the people of Georgia have no dosiro to
oppose tho Government of tho United
States; and lie cun, though a member of
the Republican party, further bear wit
ness to tho goocral bad character ot tho
men who have been eondneting the
affairs of tho Republican party in that
State. Sir, do not understand mo as
holding you entirely responsible for their
elevation to office, for you, liko tho mass
os of tho Northern people, do not know
them, and even if you did, you olono
should not he held entirely responsible
for their actions. They are enmp-fol
lowers, nnd for purposes of gain, have
foisted themselvesnpou your party.”
‘Yes, I supposo there are bad men
among them.”
Bnt, in alluding to the unfriendliness
of onr people to you. General, you will
not lose sight of tho fact that it was a man
iu Georgia who first nominated you for
tho Presidency."
“Ah; who was that ?”
“It was Dr. Samuel Bard, was it not,
who first suggested your namo in an
Atlanta paper, nnd advocated your elec
tion ?’’
“l’erhops he did—I don’t reuiouiber;
bnt it does not appear to have keen much
to my advantage to havo first received tho
nomination iu Georgia, as Seymour led
me 00,000 votco. ”
“Well, it does look that way, General;
but you recognized tho obligation,
nnd whether it was of scrvico to you
or not, reciprocated the compliment by
appointing the Doctor to office."
How is that?”
Why you appointed Dr. Bard Gov
ernor of Idaho."
"Oh, yea, I recollect;’’ and for tho first
time a smile flitted ovor hia face.
“But the Dr. did not prove steadfast,
General; ho oppoecs you now in his pa
per.”
“Ahl indeed. What is his paper, and
where is it pablished? And where is
he?"
“He calle it the True Georgian, and it
is published in AUants, Go."
“I didn't know, as I have not heard of
him since he was in Washington about
• yonr ago. I was importuned by some
gentlemen of Georgia belonging to liotb
parties to give him some place.
It wan represented to me, if I reeollect
correctly, that Dr. Bard was n sort of a
good-natured gentleman, who meant no
harm to any man or party, nnd hod no
principles or purposes beyond a public
provision for liis private comforts. A re
tired station for him, with good perqui
sites in some remote place, was therefore
thought to suit his own views, and was
believed to be os little distasteful to the
views of all parties in Georgia as any
(Imposition I could make ot him. To
these rcproticutntionn I yielded. Ret two
plue-r s wero then left on my hands of u
remote nature, uud X hud been for some
time seeking iucnmlicntsfor them. One
wus uu unimportant place iu tho Peru
vian Islands, which I gave to Coi. T. Mc-
Borron Timmoney. The other was tlA'
Territory of Iduho, which I gave to Dr.
Bard, and I did so iu deference to tho
wishes of numerous Georgians. I offered
the place to Captain Bryant, but he re
fused, then to Hwayze, aud fiuully to
Bowen, of Bontli Carolina, but they all
refused. liud the latter accepted, I
should havo been released from tho disa
greeable party necessity of pardoning
him.
Col. Timmory, some one told mo, bor
rowed money in Washington and put
out for his place, and I thought Dr. Bard
had dono the same, but I recollect now
that he got two months leave of absence,
and then resigned.”
“The Dr. is still with ns in. Georgia,
and is opposing your administration
through his paper. Ho has hoisted tho
name of Gov. Hoffman, of New York,
for President in 1$72, and is running the
“New Departure” line of Democracy.”
“Well, that’s good for us, whatever it
may bo for Hoffman. Tho New Depart
ure platform is just what we want the
whole cotrntry to get upon, as that will
secure our principles, at all events, and
is moreover the surest way to secure our
men, also.
I am glad now that Dr. Bard didjiot
go to Idaho, and to learn that ho is now
serving his old friends in a very impor
tant way, by urging upon their opponents
tho adoption of our own policy and meas
ures."
Just at this moment the loud sound of
tho dinner bull aroused me. I found that
the hour appointed for tho actual inter
view, which was to do mo so much honor,
hod long since passed. My friend, tho
Colonel, had colled, and finding my door
locked had lott*-supposing I was ont.—
“Sic transit gloria mundi.”

ECLIPSE SCREW COTTON PRESS!
Patented Feb’y 27, 1871, by Findlay & Craig.
An ANTI-FRICTION SCREW—A MECHANICAL WONDER. Thie wonderful Mechanical achievement in
point of IlAPIDrfY and LfGHTNESS of DRAUGHT, STANDS WITHOUT A RIVAL, and ia destined at an
early day to supersede ALL OTHER Cotton Screws, bo they fabricated of Wrought or Caat Iron.

R. FINDLAY'S 80NS, Findlay’s Iron Works, Macon, Ga.:
I'KAn Sins — Late this fall I purchased from you ono of your Findlay k Craig Eclipse Patent Screw Cut-
ton Presses, and, after a full aud flair trial, do not hesitato to pronounco it the most rapid, of lightest
draught, most powerful—in fact, the best (without an exception) Cotton Press I ever saw. Between this
and all other Iron Screw Presses I havo over soen or used, thcro is just simply uo comparison. Every
planter should use your Press. JOHN L. GILBERT.
P. 8.—You may consider my order in for two more of the above Presses for next season, and may look
for many orders from this section ! my neighbors aro determined to havo them, a* thoy can pack by hand
twico as fast as any of the other Iron Screw Presses can by horse power. J. L. O.
Since last fall, and before accepting Patent, wo added improvements and labor-saving conveniences—
rendering it PERFECT in every particular. Tho serfrw or pin, has a pitch, or fall, of 6If inches ; that is,
at every turn of the scrw, follower block descends (or ascends, as the case may bo) 6^ inches. The de
vice of tho tubo or nut in which the screw works, Is such as to materially reduco the frictiou, so great in tho
common screw ; thereby rendering it au easy task for threo hands to pack a bale of cotton in HALF THE
TIME OF ANY OTHER Iron Screw Press by horse-power. ISeoJ. L. Gilbert’s certificate.] Whon dosira-
