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 Kurus B. Bullock T t a letter addre: sed to Benj.

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.

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 pany were indors J by Bullock and de livered to Kimb , r id by Kinds 1 were illegally and Iran,. ently i v s;io3cd of Is/oi-s thefirst Jif mitm </ ii roail were ompleloi, as the law and tho contract nndor w-liioh the bonds were to be indorsed end paid, n pitres.

Knowing this, and remaining ailent acquiescing in it—issuffioicutevidenoe, to an honest man, that he was particept crimmti in the matter of using, and try i.gg te hold the State bound lor both sots of bon 1 *. But \. .,at sliall be said of Coulcy ? He knows all this—knows the unlawful and fraudulent manner in wl-ich these bonds v -re first issued—knows, also, that they liv .* ben uipeneded by the i suing of the later sot of bouda, a ml are, the.efore, not worth the paper they are p. dod on, anil that the effortto hold the b' to bound for them is an effort to fasten a fraud k Co.

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.

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.
