It is stated that Jieiijutnio Conley av* ws
hia determination to liold on to tin Gu
bernatorial office—tlio election and inau
guration of Gov. Smith to the contrary
notwithstanding.
Let him claim the office to his heart's
content In doing so he will only make
himself the langhing stock of tne coun
ter. He seems to have yielded to the
solicitations of the Bond Bing, and un
dertaken to do their bidding.
The OarteraviUe and Van Wert Bail-
road bends were indorsed by the State to
the snout of <275,000, when a very few
miles of it were built—perhaps not more
than dm A arwarda the Company, for
some purpose—in all probabi'ity with
i-ome fraudulent proceeding i i view
most likely with the full intention of do
ing just what has been done—had their
charter amended, name ohanged, and de
termined to issue an entirely new >et of
bonds 11 conform to their new nome—
that of the Cherokee Bailroad.
Bollock indorse .1 the new set of bonds
to the amount of $300,000, without first
requiring the old bonds to be canceled
and dep< :it* I in the office of the Treas
urer.
When tl 'i sc. .nd issue of the bonds
wss indorsed by ill look, end registered
in the office of the Secret' y of State,
he prom'sed to see that the old bonds
were canceled and returned to tlio'’ -t.»—
so we are told anil believe.
In a lettor written by Bulloek, on the
1st I> aetnber— 100 h Mligbt—and ad.
dressed to Acting Governor Conley, he
i rys tlio oompany ‘Wilted” him that
“they had returned and canceled the
Cartersville and Van Wert bauds. He
sets up the plea that he reli. 1 upon that
notification; and eays he pursued the
same course as with th© /*r Line Bail-
road, which company canceled their
indoi 1 bonds, bnt did not return them
to b'm.
In this cose, howevor, there were no
new bonds in plnoe of tho canceled ones,
be issued by tho company, and in
dursed by the Stato, r < was the c, so with
the Cartersville and Van Wei Bailroail
It is impossible for us, with the lights
before us, to come to any oteer conclu
sion than that the amendment of the
charter, the ebango of name, the issuo of
on satire new set of bonds, to., sll—all—
was done with a fraudulent design by
the ofiioon of that road, and that Bullock
entered into tho scheme of having out at
the same time, for the wicked p-upose of
trading, using and spi lulating on the
same, and sharing in the spo

T t a letter addre: sed to Benj. Conley,
,l:iU-d 1st Decomber, in eluding to the
f.ict that Homy Clows & Co. hold the first
issuaof tho Cartersville a--1 Van ’ ort
itailroad bonds indorse^ by tho; ate
(winch should have boon canceled), after
the new set of bonds bad beeu issm 1 by
the Oompany and indorsed by Bullock,
says: “My recoil, -tioa is that Clews is,
or was, the Tie. urer of that Company.
If so, he wch’d seem to be tho offioial
with whom thoso bonds shot d have
been retired. ”
Bullock here bears unwilling testimony
to the foot that Clows was oue of the prie
ci pal officers of the rosd—its Treasurer—
a most important member of the Com
party.

wraonoe Pr lent of tho Cartersvi 1 '
and Van We. Bailroad. Lately a bill
in equity was fed in tlio Siipr or Coup
of Bartow county, praying the appoint
ment of a Hdooivor of tho Rood, whioh
nos sworu to by CoL Johnson. He
aweara that tho couipa-iy did not i rive
DO eta. on a do tar for the bonds, as the
law requires—while Clews A Co. swear
thoy paid 90 cents. Col. Johnson
swears that Clews was appointed Ties*
urer of tlio Bead; also, that between the
12th April, 1870, and tlio 9th Augi it
1870,32 . -,0O0 of tho bonds of the com

Etlu : I eencl you for Mira

an Irish Scalawag, judging from
bulla” it contains. He was, no dou. ,
one of the oflicials »et over the Irish pt )-
pie after tho gre'it rebellion had been put
down. The points of resemblance be
tween it• contents, and fie ridiculous
misrepresentations of tbe present cordi-
tiou of things in the South, oy whioh
ltadioal misrule is sought to bo contin
ued, are so striking, that I have tbojgbt
it worth re-proui cing ftt this time—da •-
isg the g eat Ko-KJux Ilebellion. D.
My Dear Sir: Having now a little
peaoe and quietness, I sit down to inform
yon of the dreadful bustle and confusion
we are in from these blf »dtlri. ty rebi ’
most of whom r*s (‘bank God!) kill*. 1
and dispersed. We a.’ta pretty mr s;
can get nothing to etu, nor wine to drink
except whisky; and whe 1 we sit down to
dinner, we oro obligeu to keep both
bands armed. Whilst I write this I hold
a pistol in each hand and a sword in the
other. I concluded in the ginning,
that this would be the end of it; and I
see.I wm right, for it is rot half over yet.
At present there aro such goings
on, that everything is at a s!md still.
I should have answered your let .• i
fortnight ago, but I did not receive it
till this morning. Indeed, hardly a mail
arrives safe without being robbed. No
longer ago tlian yesteril ly the coach with
the mails from Dublin was robbed near
this town; the bags hail been judiciously
left behind for feur of accident, and by
good luck there was nol *dy in it but
two outride passengers who had rothing
for thiL. cs to take. Lr Thun Jay no
tice was given 4 iat a gang of rebels were
advancing hero under the I ach stand
ard; bat they bad no colors, nor any
drums except bagpipes. Immedi&t ’y,
every man in the place, including women
anu children, ran out to m it them.
Wo soon found our force much too litt’e
snd we were far too near * > think of re
treating. Death was in every fr *e, b it
to it we went, and by the time half our
little party were kill/ 1 we began to be all
alive again. Fortunately tho robe’s had
no guns, except pistols, cutlass- , and
pikes; sud as we had plenty of guns end
ammunition, wo put them all to the
sword. Not a soul of them escaped, ex
cept some that were drowned in an adja
cent bog; and in a very short time noth
ing was to be heard but silence. Their
uniforms were all different colors, but
mostly given. After the action, we w< it
to rummage a sort of camp which they
had left behind them. All we found was
afewpikis without heads, a parcel of
empty bottles full of water, and a bun
die of French commissions tilled up with
Irish Hum s. Troops arc now stationed
all around the country, which exactly
gquai with my ideas. I h ve ol. y
time to add that I am in great hrste.
Yours, truly.
11 P. S.—If you do not i\ ;eive this, of
course it must have rah carried; there
fore, I beg you wi'I write and let me
know.”

Savannah Neie«, telegraphing on the 28th,
details the following interesting item:
The greatest sensation hns prevailed
hero to-day, caused by tho .lisc< ry that
no less a person than President < ant has
for more in twenty years b a de
faulter. It teems tlia luring . Mexi
can var, Urn* vho was the*, a Lieu
tenant in tho nrm,-, acted as Co miss ry
and Quartermaster. At the close of e
war there was a deficit of five thousand
dollars iu his acoouuts. His attention
was repeatedly called to it by tho ac
counting officers of the Tre; ury, and
ropetted domands were nude upon him
to pony up, but bo never condescended
to fcako the least notice of the unanswer
able letters which were addressed to
him. He hod spent the money, nud of
courso was unablo to return it; for in
those days his character and habits were
such that no one would think of lending
or giving him even so much as a five dol
lar note. In 18C2, through some Iiocns
poQHt, a bill was eogMocr. 1 thror
Congress appropriating £1,000 to h n ,i
compensation of a an 1 of equal amount,
alleged by him to ha o boon stolen from
him in 1848, when a quartermaster in
Mexioo. But, to Grant ■* great disgust,
the Treasury officials pounced upon this
one thousand and carried it to the credit
of the old score. It was tin thought
that there might be some uiiauc-) of get
ting the remainder, and ngniu was Grunt
notified that he was iu default uud urged
to settle liis little bill, but it was all of no
avail; and to this day, with the except ; on
of the one thousand dollars credit, l lys
8es S. Grant is t-howu on the Treasr \
ledgers to have owed the United States
five thousand dollars for more than twen
ty years. Any explanation his white
