But neither of these causes affected the President. He tamed his back upon them as annoying cares, which should be thrust aside for indi vidual pleasure. In fact, General Grant cannot be brought to take any interest in, or feel tbe least con cern for the stem duties of bis great office. He has never yet realized, even approximate ly, the nature of the trusts which he holds, and will never learn to appreciate them, because he has neither the capacity nor the inclination which, is indispensable. Tbe Presidency, to hie view, is an honor and a pension for military services. Ba treats it in that sense, striving to convert the place into the most profit, and to nse the power in per sonal rewards. Daily duty, thoughtful attention, careful scrutiny, and supervising vigilance are all dis tasteful to his ordinary mind and to the habits of an indolent life which be has cultivated since coming to the White House. With lim ited knowledge of public affairs, no taste for study, aversion to books, and dislike of the society of superior men, it is wholly impossi ble that he can have any just idea of his re sponsibilities. As a necessary consequence, the great business of the Government falls into the hands of a Cabinet who are all, with out exception, the mere instruments of his will. He selected mediocrity that he might not be overtopped, and would be obeyed. And he has net been disappointed. From Hamilton Fish up or down, there is not a man in the concern with the slighest elevation of character, with any breadth of intelligence, with a particle of true American feeling, or without a stain on the office which be occu- HI.VBV WARD BKKCHKR'S CASE. Rev. Henry Ward Braohor has at length broken his tilence in the matter of tbe grave charges brought against him. What he does my, however, is vague and unsatisfactory. Certainly the allegations of immorality were plain and explicit enough to have warranted an equally plain and explicit denial. Names and plaoe. were given, but except to refer to them ae “slanders," Mr. Beecher offers no denial. It seems to us that in this he blun ders. No man, however prominent, afford to brave charges of so terrible a nature. If innocent, it is his duty to come before the public and prove his innocence. No matter how painful the exposition may be, we hold it to be the duty of au innocent man to boldly confront his acensers, and, not content with demanding their proof, show that they are slanderer, and calumniators. Guilt alone seeks to smother and conceal; but tbe man who is conscious of his rectitude need never fear publicity; for falsehood, however malig nant and atrocious, is impotent when con fronted by the indignant majesty of the wronged and slandered. NEWSPAPER DEATHS AXD SODEUJ JOCRXALI8.V. Inhuman Treatment. A BOY CHAINED BY THE LEG FOB TWO MONTHS —HE 18 DISCOVERED NAKED AND EMACI ATED IN A DARK, DAMP BOOM— THE GRAND JURY INVESTI GATING THE MATTER. [Savannah New*.] For some time past we have heard rumors to the effect that a boy by the name of Willie Yorke, son ot W. G. Yorke, who keeps the cigar store and drinking saloon corner of Bull street and Broughtv u street lane, was sub jected to ill treatment by his father, but they were of such an indefinite character that we attached no particular importance to them. Brief mention of the reports, without the ATIAIVTA PAPER MILLS. pies. The recent suspensions of the Augusta Con stitutionalist and Savannah Republican, are, in a measure, healthy indications that the old style of journalism cannot live. Both of these papers were venerable with age. Estab lished at a time when the modern newspaper was still in its infancy, they did not keep pace with the progress of the age. No mat ter how ably their editorials were written; nor how conscientious the writer, the day had passed when mere editorials were the sole at tractions of a newspaper. Now, as fifty years ago, the opinions ot editors possess weight and influence; but unless these opinions are supported by live, fresh news, the public soon tire of the paper which contains them. There are still a lew old fogies who prefer the long, ponderous and dull essays of the old school, to the short, sparkling and crisp articles of to-day, bnt they are in a melan choly minority. What these sombre minded gentlemen call “sensationalism,” is precisely what the great body of tbe people want. Not that ‘Sensationalism" which violates truth and outrages public decency; bntarecoidof fact, written in tbe graphic, brilliant style of the present day, depicting the virtues, vices and follies of our society, without prejudice and without partiality. News. news. news. The ren.l*.r of t -day wants this above everything else. He wants it at the earliest possible moment. Whatever occurred in the world on yesterday he insists upon knowing this morning. Railroads and telegraphs have quickened the public mind, and the daily newspaper freighted with its record of a day's history is now as necessary to the educated man, as his food or his cloth ing. This very expansion of the popular intellect has tended to weaken individual in fluence. All an editor can expect to accom plish to-day is to guide public sentiment. He cannot mould it, neither can he control it. Men think for themselves and act for themselves, and no argument, however profound, no sophistry, however subtle, can reverse their opinion once deliberately formed. It is because of this self-dependence on their own opinion that the public no longer support partisan newspapers as they did forty years ago. Hence, too, the establishment of what are called “independent” journals, which, dating from the New York llerald, were increased and multiplied and prospered until they have become tho most conspicuous of our newspapers. This ignoring of “party” claims has also made journalism a business, just like any other. In the clden time it was not the paper so much as tbe party that was considered. The Editor was the servant, and often tbe slave, of a few political leaders, who subscribed money and helped him to keep his journal alive, and who used their personal influence to obtain patrons for it Now, every newspaper stands upon its own merits. The poor, the doll and the unenterprising go to the well; the five, enterprising and vigor ous become the popular favorites. Just as people purchase the best article of goods when tbeyfean obtain it at as low a price as an infe rior article, so they take the best newspaper. Nine months ago the Atlanta Daily Herald was started without capital; to-day it has by far tho largest circulation of any paper pub lished here, and probably the largest in the State. Fire months ago a small boy carried the Weekly Herald to the post-office; to-day a Urge wagon is needed to convey it there. And the whole secret of this success has been and is because wo have made journalism a business, giving plenty of news and seeking to serve the great public, and not to cater to individuals, however prominent they may be. The Republicans and Constitutionalists of the South, now eking out a slender existence, are bound to die, while such papers as the At lanta Herald, the Savannah Seize and the Augnsta Chronicle and Sentinel, guided by minds which never grow old, bnt which keeps up with the progress of the age, must live and prosper. And the sooner that the old- fashioned and effete disappear from the arena, tbe better it will be for the enterprising, the lusty and the joong-blooded; and the better it will be for the reading public and for modern journalism. The foreign policy of this country is really directed by Bancroft Davis and Caleb Cush ing, one of whom stands branded as a bribe taker and the other is advertised, like the ships of a former time, as always “up for Cowes and a market.” The recent proclama tion in regard to Louisiana is properly coun tersigned by J. C. B. Davis, the bribe-taker, as acting Secretary of State. He put together tbe audacious falsehoods of which that official document is composed, and it was fit that a man should attest it whose regard for truth is only measured by the price which that article will fetch iu open market It was supposed that common decency, in the absence of a higher motive, would have prompted the President, since has salary has been doubled, to manifest at least in the ex ternal forms, some little regret tor his public duties. The contrary effect has been pro duced. He is more negligent, indifferent, and defiant of public opinion now than at any previous time. It would seem that he takes pains to publish his contempt of all propriety by wilful disregard of every just expectation and junketing journeys that have been at tended with disgraceful scandal wherever he has gone. The accounts furnished to the Sun from va rious points in the West, where the President was seen in a deplorable condition, are strictly true, as is well known here. It is sad to say, but there is no nse of disguising a fact which is notorious, that the habit of intemperance which compelled Captain Grant to retire from the army and which clung to him long after ward, and which, to his credit be it said, he partially conquered at one time, ha9 returned upon him with all the force of a revived pas sion. He is drinking hard, constantly, and in the worst way, so as to excite the gravest fears of fcis family and friends. While Gen eral Dent was at the White House he was al ways vigilant to prevent exposure of this vice. Close family ties were superadded to personal devotion in concealing it from general obser vation. But recently no such friendly guardianship has been exercised, all restraint appears to have been thrown off, and hun dreds of people have been unwilling wit nesses of General Grant’s degradation in pub lic places. His frequent absences from the capital are explained chiefly by a desire for this gross in dulgence among boon companions, freed from some of the restraints that still exist here, and removed from eyes that are saddened by such distressing exhibitions. His own house hold and his immediate friends are naturally most concerned abont the result of a habit which he apparently lacks the moral courage to resist. He belongs to that unfortunate class of drinkers who are maddened with in ordinate thirst for the first taste, and never stops until sunk in that disgusting stupor. By nature stolid and obstinate, J.his passion overcomes any sense of self-respect, so that official dignity is cast aside for a morbid in dulgence, which takes no note of time or place. This infirmity has long been well known to many of Gen. Grant’s chief supporters. He had make it visible on one Sabbath especially to various congregations leaving their places of worship in this city; and others were only too familiar with repeated proofs of his weak ness. The facts could not be hidden; so the Christian statesmen and temperance leaders of the Wilson and Colfax school, who as sumed charge of all the moral ideas, got to gether and put him on probation. They then certified that he was tbe victim of calumny, while some of them in private admitted what everybody knew, but thought it too late to re treat. And if the Credit Mobilier had not blasted tbe reputation of these canting knaves, who have made hypocrisy a trade, they would as cheerfully certify him once more, though knowing that ho has broken pledge after pledge, is confirmed in the habits of a periodical intoxication, and is fast run ning into the ruts of a daily drunkard. This i-i bard to say of the Chief Magistrate, but it is tbe naked truth, and tbe American people ought to know it They have been deceived too long. names, was mad* in the News some three or four months since. Yesterday morning, however, these rumors were revived, and it became bruited about the street that the boy, who bad been missed from the streets lor over two months, had been discovered CHAINED BY THE LEG in a small and badly ventilated room in the dwelling portion of the house. His Honor, Mayor E. C. Anderson, was notified of the matter, and in company with the Chairman of the Council, Dr. B. D. Arnold, and Al derman John A. Douglas, visited the place yesterday afternoon. They found that the statement was only too true, as upon obtain ing admittance to the room they were appalled by the sight that greeted them. Chained in one corner of the room was the boy, PALE AND EMACIATED, and presenting unmistakable evidence of neglect. Ilis hair unkempt, and his body entirely naked, with the exception of a small dirty band around the middle of the waist. The child was talkative, and apparently bad not been starved, his appearance, doubtless, being more the result of the close confinement in a musty room, bare of everything and without ventilation. His statement to the above gentlemen, which was not denied by his lather, was that he had been chained in the room since the early part of March, and had lived on BREAD AND WATER during that time, never having been allowed to take other exercise than that permitted by the limit of the chain with which he was bonnd. The chain is about three yards long. The Mayor at once ordered th© boy to be released, and had him sent to the barracks for proper protection. He was washed and decently clothed and placed in a clean and comforta ble cell, where he received good and substan tial food. We interviewed Major Anderson and Dr. Arnold in regard to tho case, and were informed that the matter had been brought to the attention of the GRAND JURY, who will thoroughly investigate it As far as we can ascertain, no reason, other than the boy was bad and unruly, has been given by W. G. Yorke for this inhuman treatment of his son. It is true the boy has the reputation of be ing a notoriously bad character, and has been sent to jail several times for stealing, but, considering his age—he is VBIKTOB.

However, we will for the pres ent refrain from commenting upon the mat ter as oar inclination and feelings prompt, in consequence of the case being oefore the grand jury. We feel satisfied that they will give it a most searching investigation, and will pursue the proper coarse. We have no desire to prejudice their minds, and consider, uuder tbe circumstances, that a bare recital of the facts, which are in themselves bad enough, without the embellishment of rumored de tails, the proper way to treat the case, the first of the kind that has ever occurred in Savannah, and we trust it will be tbe last. For the present tbe boy will be kept at the Barracks, the Mayor not having as yet deter mined what disposition he will make of him. The affair has created considerable excite ment among those who have heard of it, and by all it is regarded as unnatural and cruel. The action of the grand jury is looked for with great interest, as tho investigation will develop all the particulars and details leading to the adoption of such treatment to enrb the evil propensities of a mere child.
