The Cntlibcrt Appeal of ths 15th iuat. c ontains an ably written artiole signed “Randolph," in whioh the oourso of the Radicals in Georgia, in their systematic design of robbery and outrage, and the roddHseoadoct of Beniamin Conley in the Gubernatorial Cell air, are scathingly roviowed. His oourago is compared to that of tho last one of a pen of captured wild hogs: Those who ever caught wild hogs in peue, where several were grouped togeth er, will remember this peculiarity in that animal which well illustrates Couloy’s ex hibited courage. As lung as all the hogs are ou foot their resolution to resist as saults, aud to assail their oaptors knows no bounds, and he who enters tho pen does so at his peril. But whenever ono hog fella in the fray you may eater with safety, and slay or tie with impunity un til you oome to tho last And then yon are again put on the defensive. For the last one will fight alone with all the oonr- uge of hit species, as If surrounded and aided by a thousand of his comrades. Much has been the career of the Geor gia Radical Ring of thieves iu high places. While they stood and looked alneltu, and flourished the ensigns of their imwcr, and flared in the focos of the people the keen weapon* of their defence and as sault, many uusnspeeting were misled, and even some virtuous may havo been tempted to wake common cause with them, and to profit hy their peculations There was a strength about them that made them invincible even to those who believed their pwt>oeosbad,and that they would ultimately oome to grief, llat at last ono of the leaders fell, and thetaoe- f or ward all the pack wore hsrraaaod, and in turn submitted tamely to the authority of an enraged people, until it came to Conley, the last bog in the pen. Forth with his bristles began to rise, anil his ragged teeth to show themselves whetted keen aud covered with tho froth and foam of his rage, for tho fray with the honest people of the State. He is hopeless in his own strength. For he is not only not fortified hy the Constitution, and statutos, but every one at their provisions is a barbed arrow that flies with lightuiug speed from the archives of our history and the volumee of our law, into tha vitals of tho usur per. He has no moral strength, for he defies public morals. Ho has no plea of patriotism that justifies t!» overruling popular will for the pub lic weal, for nis mission is sgninst the State, her peace, dignity, her honor, and her purse. Re has no pretext that party drill demands it at hie hands, for tho good men of his own Ipsrty, here and abroad, ooudemn hie judgment, and de spise the mean pretensions to greatness, as well as his claim to official power sontoMl Soft a flying thief. Hi« hope, his only hope, is, that tho Government cf the United States, by reason of falsely excited ire and mis guided mntioe, will become meaner than lie would have Hie Government of Geor gia in his hands to be. For, iu order to come to fats relief, that Government must imbue its hands in the hiding of crime and guilt in a matter where it luw contracted none, and has intertst hi the eoeoealment, and vrl there isno reward, for the villains who BenlusUCenlef. “Randolph,” writing in tha last issue of the Cuthbert Appeal, in noticing the briefless career of onr acting Governor, agys: He adheres to the canaeof the fugitive Governor, pursue* the jourse marked out to screen him and suppress knowledge of bisaaeociatoe in guilt, when it is spjiarent to all good people that everything abnnhl be nncovored. lie has been intimately associated with him in politics, was with him in the midnight leagues, «lieu both were obscure but ambitious aspirants for place—went with him through the plot tings and machinations which sent both to represent the Angusta District in the Htate Convention, and where both assisted in making the Con stitution whioh Bollock has fled from, and Conley tramples under foot. They came into the State administration to- S ether, and were on confidential terms nring the whole time Bullock and his coadjutors were concocting aud per petrating the gross derelictions that rendered precipitous flight the only measure of personal safety. He re ceived at the hand* of Bollock, by secret oonsent and clandestinely, the Executive books and records, when he and Bollock, and all their legal advisers, knew his Presidency of toe Senate would expire within three days. Again: That he tbonld attempt to usurp Ex ecutive power—the highest agency of toe sovereignty of the State—and hold it by force, in order to oarry ont liis foal co'n- M±ffcejF^u«-;';££ he knows the entire people over whom he lords it, demand investigation and retrib utive justice—when ho knows too Execu tive office thus surreptitiously turned over to him, has for three years and iporo been grossly prostituted to private gain, and made not only the guilty aider and abettor, but too actual perpetrator of wholesale theft and embezzlement, to the irrcpareblo damage of tho people over whom he usurps power, is evidence most conclusive of an abandoned heart and malignant purpose, either to shield Bol lock, the felon, and others—perhaps him self—to embroil the State in the falsely excited aud misguided ire und resent ment of the Federal Government, or to vex and ennoy a people hy the exercise of unwarranted power in an insulting manner, to whom his presence, to say nothing of his official pretensions, are loathsome in the extreme, which at once sinks him below public contempt For if it is his purpose to make himself a tool for Bullock, aud covering to hide the guilt of him end his accomplices, he is a meaner pimp than Bullock is n rogue.
