The monster, since known a* Radi- reared its angry creel.— The *oben.e of Radical reconstruc tion was pnt in operation. Its Author, Tliaddeus (Stevens, boldly proclaimed that his folio were. hiul camped outside of the Constitution. Thence began the troubles which have culminated in the situation—military, financial and gene ral—which this unhappy State now pre sents. Before the present Government was imposed, through Federal tuiluence, upon Booth Carolina, the white people of Booth Oorotins made to Congress tkair remoaatranoe and submitted their appeal. These era apon reoonl. Tbe writer of this letter wae chairman of the oommittee who bore that remonstrance and appeal to Washington and laid it before tbe Re construction Committee of Oongreea Be had the honor and the privilege of addressing that oommittee in the base ment of the Capitol. He spoke to the heed and front of reoonstraotion—Thad- dena Elevens himsalf—and protested against the monstrous wrong that was shoot to he don* to the o*trwoised white people of Sooth Carolina. He ventured farther to my that the regime foisted upon this State was illogical; that it con tained the seeds of rain and decay, and that K contravened tbs lavra of God, and , therefore, It would not and could endure. Will not your Bxoellency it Ibst the writer’s anticipations have been swiftly realised ? Look this day at o«r Jtxaeutive, our legislative history, our ruined guanoes. oar disordered State stricken in it* liberties and Indnstries ! Let your EiesUeocv contemplate the spectacle which yon yourself present- to-day snaking to bold up with your bayonets the rotten, falling pyra mid of reconstructed South Caro- Carolina !—the pyramids which pigmy statesmen have sought to make rest upon its sharp apex instead of its broad base. Bat the scheme of Radical reconstruc tion was placed in operation. The de mands of party required the experiment to bejmade. Need we pcint your Excel lency to tbe history of Booth Carolina for the bit the years? It is the history a pluuderod and ontraged people. It the history of misrule, profligacy, fraud and corruption. Mo sooner had the doors of the State been opened, prior to the beginning of the reconstruction era, when n horde of bnngry, thieving, polite- oal ndveotaren earn* to our State. These flattered tbe hopes and faltered the pre judices of the enfranchised freedmen, and struck hands and united fortunes with the native roaogadev Thus was formed a combination whecoe proceed all the evils that have come upon this State. Loyal Leagues—secret, oath-bound so cieties, political, military, religious and industrial in character—were established all Avar tbe State. The antagonism be tween tBo two races that inhabit South fhsnlina Was artfully kept up. Then fol lowed the ye events which have made the tnftory of Radicalism a disgrace to oivi lizatioa. Gove .nor Scjtt oaganites his negro militia, and arms them with Win chester rifles and ball cartridges. State officials Steal and county officials quickly fallow their exs-nple. The brads of leg islators close upon loeal bribes. Clover cos Soott opens the doors of the peniten- tianr to hi* oonvict pets, and sends them book to communities whence they had been taken by the hands of justioe. The LandOo emission perpetrates its swindles. The whole State regime becomes a mass of oorruptioo, with scaroely a healthy spot upon its blackened surface. Tho strong arm of South Carolina beoomas weak, nerveless and pulseless from corruption.

The plot thickens.— Tho greet bond swindle to about to be exposed. Governor Hootf enters the con spiracy. You are waited upon, and yon are urged to suspend tbe writ of habeas corpus in Bonth Carolina. You are false- lr told that the civil pouer, Bute and Federal, is not equal to the oinergeuey. The conspirators, well represented in the persons of Messrs. Worthington, A. B. Wallace, and Elliott (negro), prevailed, and your war Upon Booth Carolina be gins. Yes, although it is nearly seven years since Appomattox, yon resume war upon Booth Carolina. Yon pnbhsh your declaration; yon send your troops; yon make war upon peaceful communities, and, beneath the ample folds of you flag, you allow thieves, robbers and in- oeudiaries to find safety and shelter. Is it, Mr. President-General, that tbe lau rel* yon won in war, fighting for what you no doubt deemed tbe right—is it that these laurels must at Gowpens and near Kings Mountains wither and die? And now, Mr. President, let me pro test, not only against the lore and dam age inflicted causelessly upon oar indus trial interests, bat also, let me protest, as I rolemnly do, against the violation of the great writ of personal liberty, in volved in yonr proceedings in this Btate under the Ku-klux act of Con.reel Hss it ever occurred,to you Excellency that you are but carrying out the de crees of an unconstitutional act of a par- tgited Congress ? It is a well known and accepted legal maxim, that a delegated power cannot be delegated. Tbe Con stitution of tbe United Btates, which you are sworn to observe, protect and defend, says that Congress may suspend the priv liege of the writ of habeas corpus w hen rebellion or invasion do imperil the pub lic safety. Mow, although this power it delegated to Congress only by the Con stitution of the Republic, yet, the act of Congress, approved April 20, 1871, seeks to delegate this power to the President, and allows him to exercise bis discretion in deciding when the “rebellion or inva sion" referred to in the Constitution, shall be considered as existing. This, Mr. President, inveetdll you with impe rial power, and yon might well have turned away from the sceptre which the Mark Antonys of Congress tendered to you. But your Exeellenoy—your Majes ty, I might odd—seixed the tendered power. You did more. In yonr procla mation of October 17 last, yon proceed to carry on this delegation of a delegated power. You delegate your power to the United States Marshal, and he is author ised to delegate to his deputy, and he to a soldier, end he to a citizen, and thus it oomea to this, in the last analysis of the matter, that the suspension of the writ of habeas corpus rest*, finally, iu tbe hands of any United States soldier or negro in the once sovereign Btate of South Caro lina. Against this aa a Carolinian, as a citi zen of the United Btates, as an heredi tary freeman, I raise my protest, however ineffectual as it may be. Farther, I raise my protest, end tbe protest of nil in sym pathy with me, against all yonr military proceedings in this State. These pro ceedings, instigated by personal malice and for partisan purposes, bave inflicted a heavy blow apon the industries, as well as tbe liberties of onr people. They are uncalled for. I affirm that the civil arm was strong enough to execute the law iu South Carolina, aud that a grievous wrong has been done to this Btate by tbe very band that should have been raised in sympathy and defense. Aud now, Mr. President, let me say to you, that if your purpose be to break the spirit of onr people, and nuke them bend to tho yoke that bus boon laid upon them, even yonr ginut strength, as the head of a powerfnl Government, will not beequal to the task. Cnr people will emerge from the waves that now threaten to bury their all. Out oi chaos wilt come order —out of decay will oomo life. With our climate, our soil, onr resources, our men, our women, with all the bounties of a good God spread before us, we shall not despair. Nor shall we abandon our mo ther State in the hour of her greatest need. Claiming only what is just and fair, standing by only what is right, we ■hall hold on to the broken altars of the Btate and poor upon them in lavish streams the rich libations of a more than Roman devotion. If you can rise to the heights of your duty, it is plain what your Exoellency is called upon to do. Withdraw your sol diem. Recall your military edicts. Re mit us to peaceful pursuits. Think of Burke when he relented, and pardoned something to the spirit of liberty. Think of Cam Ulus, when, by a magnanimous policy, he nude tlie couquured people of Latinum the friends of Rome, end thus added to her power aud diguity. Your Excellency appears bent upon the policy of making war upon the Southern States. Pardon me for the suggestion that you caunot, if you regard your fame, retire too soon from this campaign against yoor own oountryinen. The only enemy before you are the men, women and children of plundored, struggling communities. The groat heart of the peerless Lee is still in death, and the war-worn veterans oi tho armies ef Uxe Confederacy are making their bread by the sweaiol their brows You can, Mr. President, win no houora in year present aggressions; and even if honors were possible, it might be well for you to beer in mind the sugges tion of a Christian heart, that hAth her victorlee no leee renowned then wer." I am, respectfully, yours, J. P. T. The Halvtechhlo luttinta. We need in Georgia a comprehensive Polytechnic Institute, where those sub jects will be taught that are supplemen tary to the gymnastic or disciplinary studies now panned at the oalleges. We need an institute whrew oar young t can be trainod to bo practical chemists, mechanical and civil engineers, mining engineers, arohiteota, builders, scientific agriculturists, scientific mechanics; where the opportunity nod inducement will he offered them to adopt those industrial professions that are destined to play ao important n part ia onr civilization. Onr strength in tbe future lies in ednoatlag our eons tor their varied industries, as oat weakness in th* past lay in sedulously avoiding them. But what do we require to constitute a polytechnic institute that will create and supply the demand for this scientific education? We need, tint, the apptianoea necessary to teach modem scionoe, suob that, at Jha present time, do not exist in any institntion of learning in Georgia, and such that cannot be ob tained without large means. Am them are chemical and physioal laborato ries, where opportunities will be afforded students of beooming practically famil tar with the applications of science; museums of ores, minerals, soils, imple ments, etc.; models in Architecture, En gineering, Mechauica, etc. These being the appliances wherewith to teach the applications of science, wonld constitute the needed ground-work or foundation whereon to build the proposed Institute. To use this scientific material there should he mi-tired competent professors, earnest men, devoted to their work; and, in addition to teaching tbe motives of scientific investigation, and the applica tions of science, the determining the geo logical, mineroiogical, and physical re sources of tbe Btate should receive, in the proposed Institute, immediate atten tion. It should be, emphatically, a Btate Institute—working to develops both tbe mental and pbvaicul resources of tbe Btate. According to our conception there should be a Professor of MiaWaloay and Boooeaoie Geology; not a Baiohst, fa miliar with a few facts; but one known to be, and reoognised among, scientific men, as thorough in his department; to whom should De assigned the duty of making a mineralogieai and geological survey of tbe entire Btate, of preparing charts indicative of its mineral wealth, and its diversified soil, and of collecting a museum of minerals and soils, to. Th's survey would be the work of yean, bat with a proper divtaioa of tbe time in tbe leotore room and in the field, it oould he satisfactorily accomplished. Then geological excursions would also sfforil to special aud advauced students an opportunity of acquiring this practi cal kuowledge, which would prove of positive vslue. This institute should also have a Pro fessor of Physical Geography, whose duty it should be to make a physical survey of the Btate, aud oofleet statistics of the agricultural products, and the manufac tures of the different sections Charts, exhibiting the result of these surveys, should be published, on wlrioh should be indicated the water-powers, the valuable timber, tbe climate, products of the soil, with statistics of population, Ac., thus illustrating the natural wealth oi Geor gia. We possess a princely domain, ex tending from the mountains to the sea shore, embracing nearly sixty thonsand square miles, yet concerning much of this domain we possess very limited knowledge. We can obtain more reliable and aocurato knowledge of Colorado or Nevada in two hours, by fering to the United Btates reports, than we cun acquire of Georgia, by a resi dence of us many years. We know not of wbat we are capable. We know not what wealth we possess. We know not wbat valuable mineral deposits may lie hidden in the bowels of our mountains; nor what rich beds of phosphates may be iu our low lands. As sensible men, desiring to develops our Btate, it becomes us to know these things, to go to work Bensibly and suc cessfully, to exhibit to ourselves and the world, the material wealth of our Btate. If, under the direction of the proposed Polytechnic Institute, whose establish ment we advocate, the mineralogieai, geological and physical surveys were completed, or partially completed, and then were published the charta illustrat ing ths varied soils, the climate, the fall oi ruin, the valuable mineral deposits, the geological formations, the rivers and streamy with the horsepower, indicating tbe capacity of the waterfalls, marked at the proper localities, the valuable tim ber, tbe railroads, the varied agricultu ral products, Ac., Ac., of what inesti mable value would they be to the Btate? How could we estimate the rich harvests that we wonld enjoy from such a work? Can any .reasonable doubt be enter tained of their beneficial influence, were such charts and statistics, giving an epi tome of the natural wealth of Georgia, distributed in tbe oenters of oapital and immigration of the old world ? How otherwise can we we successfully invite oapital aud immigration, unless we show to the world the superior natural advan tages proposed? and how otherwise can it be done so economically and satisfactorily ns in tbe manner proposed, under the direction of a Btate Institute? There is one other officer essential in tho prop' *seil Institute, who, ii our opinion, should bave oonnoetion with the Btato and the people. Tbe Professor of Applied Chemistry should be the State chemist, whose duty It should be, for a nominal compensation, fixed by law, to analyse specimens of fertilizer* nsed by planters; and whose certificates of analy sis, in such cases, should be the requisite legal evidence to establish fraud, and render the claims of the vendor void. The protection thus afforded to the agri- eultural community would far more than repay to the State in- money value, the entire amount requisite to foond this much needed institute of applied ecienee We do not pretend to enumerate all the offioers needed in the Polytechnics In stitute. If the Btate should establish it with a wise liberality, it would expand as our necessities would demand. But even with these departments we have enumera ted, filled with earnest, consistent men, oan we justly estimate the value of the investment to the Btate ? Oan we esti mate the immediate benefits that would arise from a judicious distribution of such physioal aborts as we have deeoribed, ia inviting oapital and immigration, or the remote good in giving a new impetus to onr energies and opening new industries. This is not s fanciful Utopian scheme. We have revolved it ia our thoughts for years. Weoommend its consideration to the thoughtful members of tbe Legis lators. All that we advocate eau be ac complished if we will exhibit a eommen dabie State pride, aad, for th* time, piece prejudices of looality in abeyance. Boon. Ham. Samuel Hawkins of Chat- toega. Editors Daily Sun: Mi. Hawkins has been warmly recommended aa a proper man to be nominated candidate for Governor in some of the prominent jour nals of the State. This recommendation we heartily Indorse, for we know the man. As was well said by a correspon dent of the Augusta Chronicle, we need just such a man to clean out the Augean stable of all its corruption and flltb. We beloug to that class who are gifted by nature to tell theft thoughts in a plain, unvarnished wxy, and will say this to the people of Georgia: If you want a chief magistrate who can measure arms In in tellectual strength with any iu the State; whose honesty is undoubted, let Samuel Hawkins be their first and only oboice. Dxhocsut. The World’s Maw Departure. Oa Saturday last tbe Mew York World, ia a doable-leaded article, gave in its for mal adbatioa to the propositiaa of an other “new departure” lor the Densoen- ey. The language it seal is, iu some respect* SO cloudy and vague thal it ia imposendo to Say whether it adopts out right the “psssive policy'' advocated by tbe Bt Louis Republican, or the organi sation of an entirely new party, in aocor- danoe with the views of Carl Schurs. What, however, is quite clear is that the Democrat! i party, which east nearly two millions of votes at the last Presidential election, is advised to outer into a coali tion with the Republican opponents of General Grant, numbering at this time, according to the suppositions estimate of the Wond, some four hundred thousand voters. No oue, we apprehend, will doubt for a moment tbe cordial welcome that would bo extended by the Democracy to to large a reinforcement of anti-Grant Be publicans. Bat it is qgite another and a very different thing for two millions of Democrats to go over to four hundred thousand Republicans, especially as tbe World lays down es the basis of such a coalition, tflat the Democrats would be bound in honor and magnanimity to con cede to their Republican allies as much as'they ask. What does ouch a stipula tion amount to, if not to a thorough and complete surrender of the larger body to the smaller? “Of course,” adds ths World, blandly, “it would be an insult to either side to expect it to make any saorifloe of principle." It italicizes ths word “principle, for the purpose of making it more emphatic, and yet, at the very tame it does so, it urges tbe Democrats to oonoede to their new politics] associates “as much as they «ek.“ Practically, snch a concession amounts to this—tbe Liberal Republicans are to dictate the terms of union, and frame the policy which is to govern the new party, and tbe Democrats are to eeaept it, not only unreservedly, but thankfully. They are simply to vote a new set of Re publicans into place and power, and when they have done this tiny are to have all the advantage they can derive from a Imran compliment on their “honor au<f magnanimity.” This, however, is not all. After ad monishing the Democracy that it is their duty to yield eveiything, they are oooly told that •'both wing* of tbe Reform party will stand on an equal footing in everything, and that there will be on eaoh aide equal willingness and teal to support a Presidential candidate selected from tho other.” Tuc one great object of the proposed combination is avowedly to keep General Grant from beooming President for a second term. What tbe Werkl calls “the elements of opposition,” are quite simple and are thus stated: First, “A crusade against corruption in offioe.” Second, “Amnesty to the Booth.” Third, “Sup port of t 1 '" Revenue Reform, or Free Trade Movement.” Undoubtedly these are all issues of vital importance. They involve, more over, measures of reform that the Demo cratic party has all along been in favor of almost to a man. But wbat reason have we to believe that the Republican opponents of General Grant will agree to anile with the Democracy even on this narrow platform, Let ns look into this matter a little. Mr. Sumner is known to be opposed to tbe renomination of Gen eral Grant It will be admitted that the Massachusetts Senator exerts a wide political influence in tbe New England States Can he be brought to reoogzize tbe justice of “Amnesty to tbe South?" Is he not among the foremoet support ers of the infamous Kn-klux bill? Liv ing, as he does, in a Btato in which man ufacturing corporations bave profited ao largely by a high protective tariff and with his known views on the subject, would he turn short round and advocate “Revenue Reform?” Take next ths New York Tribune. That journal, it is yell known, is the most zealous and persistent advocate of “a high protective tariff’ of any in the country. Can Mr. Greeley, who controls it, be induoed to favor “ Revenue Reform?” We leave “ Free Trade” oat of the question entirely. It is true that Mr. Greeley does not person ally favor the re-election of General Grant; but he has, nevertheless, through the oolumns of the Tribune, avowed his purpose to support the Republican nom inee for the Presidency, whether it be General Grant or any other man. It is true, also, that the Tribme has fre quently clamored tor “Amnesty to the Bonth." But, by one oi those paradoxes it is impossible to reconcile with good faith and honesty of purpose, it vehe mently defends the Kn-klnx law and the dictatorial powers with which General Grant ia clothed. We cite these two prominent instanoes as illustrating how little ground there ia for supposing the Republican elements of opposition to General Grant con be brought to unite with the Democracy even upon so simple a platform as that laid down by tho World. If both Mr. Bomner ana the New York Tribune would spurn the platform, whet right have we to suppose that the bulk of the anti-Grant wing of the lame party would not do likewise? There is nothing more demoralising than to desert principle for expediency- We have had proof of that in the Vallandigham “ New Departure,” and of which the World was jihe foster father. Are we to be tricked again into a similar delusion ? UJoUl)e», MtW dtp, Hit. ¥omethin§ "new. W. ■- HOW AMD. a H. HOW AMY W. H. HOWARD k SON, COTTON FACTORS AMD COMMISSION MEMO HANTS.
