Is It True I
Wc have beard it hinted—and would be glad
to get at the truth of the matter—that the editor
ot a Democratic journal in Atlanta, not long
since, proposed to advocate the election ot Grant
and Collax for a pecuniary consideration.
The Augusta National Republican of the 14th
instant contains the lofegoiog. We opine the
truth of the matter” to be that there is no truth
at all iu the charge “hinted” at. What “Demo
cratic journal iu Atlanta” does the Radical jour
nal in Augusta refer to V We pause for a reply.
Cautsil.
The acknowledgment must thus publicly be
made, that we have been caned, and well caned
at that. This any of our Jriends will perceive
who may notice us as we perambulate the
streets, to and from the office ot the Intel-
ligencer. That euterprislng firm on Peach
tree street, Patton & Co., are the perpetratois
of the deed—that is, they have presented us with
one of the finest walking canes in their estab
lishment, many more of the same sort being left,
together with a splendid variety of fashionable
goods for winter wear, where ladies and gentle
men can select according to their taste and fancy,
whatever they may desire for the comfort or
decoration of their persons. This n«w firm in
our city, we are pleased to chronicle the fact, is
becoming very popular aud doing a fair busi
ness. The stock is a splendid one, Ike salesmen
attentive and polite, prices reasonable. Our
city and country readers would do well t^fcall
at Patton & Co’s and examine their fine stock.
For the handsome cane they presented to us
they have our thanks.
' Word? of Truth and Soberness.
Joiin Quincy Adams, ol Massachusetts, re
cently delivered a speech in Philadelphia, from
which we extract the following on the “situa
tion” at tire South, under the Reconstruction en
actments :
“ These carpet-baggers represent nothing but
the Radical party North. Then why is this
army kept in these Republican States ? Can it
be to prevent the people by lorce from overturn
ing their beloved governments to rule ? If not,
why not remove the soldiers ? Why not allow
those who are best able to rule to rule? That is
Republican. The truth is, that not one ot these
governments could staud a moment without an
army, or the tear of an army, and yet this is the
last new thing in republics.
Why, gentlemen, look at Tennessee. That is
a model modern Republic. One half of the peo
ple disfranchised, and yet the Governor arming
one-third of the people to keep down the other
two-thirds, and the Legislature praying the Pre
sident lor mure regular troops, the people love
their rulers so.
Look at Alabama, her Legislature afraid to let
her people vote for President lest they should
vote right.
Listeu to Louisiana plaintively pleading for
more soldiers to maintain her Constitution, and
more muskets to arm the majority of her people,
lest the miuority should overturn the rotten
fabric.
Shudder as you contemplate Georgia, which
has as good as unreconstructed—iu fact, undone
herself by rejecting the fundamental dogma of
the last discovery iu republican government,
that the negro has an inalienable right to hold
office south of Mason and Dixon's line.
Hear how the whole chorus keep up the con
stant doleful song “steaming up a lamentation
and an ancient tale of wrong,” the burden ol
which is, “ for God's sake, don’t take away the
troops —lor the love of Heaven, send us rifles
and bayonets—do try aud let us have a little
more army—our foes compass us about—help us
or we perish.” Oh, my friends, this reconstruc
tion, foolish as it is, illegal us it is, void as it is,
is a sham, a pretence, aud a humbug, aud ought
to be done away, aud that right speedily. It is
not even what it professed to be, a reconstruc
tion. It is no new Uuion; it has not the re
motest relationship to the Constitution ; it is
simply conquest iu a new dress. The whole
atiair is, as our trieud Mr. Carlyle would say,
Th« Law Car4 of the Hob. Richard H.
Clark.
In our advertising columns the reader will
find the law card ol the Hon. Richard H. Clark
of the Camilla
General Heade’s Report
Affair.
We published yesterday, as a matter of his
tory, Gen. Sibley’s official report of the military
We ceae, ,et .he occ^io. pass „IUh». a few j
fully corroborate the statements of Sherifl Poore
and others to the Legislative CommiLtee. It
; seems that Capt. Mills made the same report to
j Gen. Meade that he sent to Gen. Sibley. The
i following is the letter of Gen. Meade to Gen.
Grant transmitting the report of Capt. Mills.—
We publish it in justice to Gen. Meade:—Sav.
News.
IIeadq ks Department of the South, >
Atlanta, Ga., Oct 3,1868. j
Sir : You have been apprised that on receiv
ing intelligence of the disorders occurring in
this State on the 10th ult., at Camilla, in Mitchell
county, I at once had troops in readiness to
meet any call of the civil authorities, such as
are referred to in the letter of instruction from
the General-in-Chief of date August 25th, 1868,
and that at the same time I dispatched Captain
Mills, a most reliable and intelligent officer, on
whose cool, sound judgment and freedom from
any prejudices or party bias 1 could depend, to
investigate thoroughly, and report the facts in
the case. The affair passing off with the riot, or
rather collision of the 19th ult., and no call
having been made on me, the Legislature, as I
think, properly declining the request of the
Goveruor to authorize him to make the call,
no troops were sent. The report of Captain
Mills was yesterday received, and after its
perusal I deemed the only thing for me to do
was to transmit it to the Governor of the
State, the officer with whom I am requested to
communicate, and to assure them that in any
measures that might be taken by the civil au
thorities in the investigation ot the aflair and
the punishment of direlect civil officers or citi
zens, that iu case he met with resistance, and he
or they found themselves unable to execute the
laws, 1 was prepared, on being so intormed, to
aid and co-operate with him to the fullest extent
of the force under my command. The letter to
the Governor, the report and accompanying doc
uments of Captain Mills, are herewith forward
ed by the hands of Captain McKibben, U. S. A.,
and 1 should be pleased to receive any comment
thereon which yourself and the Secretary of
W ar or President may choose to make. I deem
it proper to add, that in a lew days I shall dis
tribute the troops in the department with a view
ot aiding the civil authorities to keep the peace
during the approaching Presidential election.
Very respectfully, your obedient servant,
Geo hoe G. Meade, Maj. Gen.
Crausle vs. Blodgett.
It will be remembered that during the session
of the Chicago Radical Convention, Blodgett was
arrested and held to bail at the instance of a
Carpet-bagger named Crangle, in an action on
the case for injuries done to Crangle in Augusta,
iu 1861. Blodgett gave security and was re
leased from arrest. On Thursday last, the case
was called for trial iu Chicago, and, after the
evidence was submitted, the jury returned a ver
dict in favor ot the plaintiff for fifty thousand
dollars as damages.
A motion was made in arrest of judgment, on
the ground that the damages were excessive,
and the Radical judge sustained it. The case
will have to be tried again.—Chronicle.
is nothing but a matter ot clothes. Aud this is ^ Hartford (Conn.) companies. Two hun
remarks in relation to this gentleman. We have
known him for many years, during which time
he has acted a conspicuous part in tlie political
and legal history of the State, particularly in
events connected with S. W. Georgia, in which
region «f the State he resided from the spring
ol 1844 to the summer of 1867. In March 1866,
and while the incumbent of the Judicial Bench
of the Southwestern Cireuit, he was suddenly
stricken down with disease, and has remained an
invalid ever since, until now, when his health
has undergone such improvement as enables
him to discharge professional obligations.
As a goodly portion of the population ol At
lanta are with comparative recentness trom other
States, aud mauy past events have even passed
from the memory of Georgians, we deem it ap
propriate to make brief reference to the antece
dents of this gentleman, who, although he has
been a resident of our city for more than a year,
has just now began bis business caieer. Judge
Clark is a native ol Savannah, Georgia, aud was
admitted to the bar in that city in February,
1844. He soon alter moved to Albany, then in
Baker county, and began the practice of law.
In 1849 he was elected to the Senate of Georgia
lrotn the then 13th Senatorial District,
In 1852 he was a Presidential Elector ou the
ticket with such disliuguished Georgians as W il-
son Lumpkin, Herschel V. Johnson, Hugh A.
Haralson, William Schley, and others.
In 1853, he was again returned to our State
Senate.
Iu 1851, he represented, as counsel, the State
of Georgia, in her heavy litigation with me
creditors ot the Bank ot Darien, as reported in
the case of Robinson et. at., vs. Bank of Darien,
18 Georgia Reports.
In 1659 and 60 he was associated with the
late General Thos. R. R, Cobb aud Judge Irwin,
in the commission for the first codification of
the laws of Georgia.
In 1863 he was appointed to the Judgeship of
the Southwestern Circuit, which position he re
signed in October, 1866, on account ot ill health.
In 1867, he changed his residence from Al
bany, Ga., to this city.
We congratulate the bar of our city, and all
litigants in our courts, upon Judge Clark’s re
turn to the practice of a profession in which he
formerly distinguished himself, and in which,
now that his health is being fully restored, he
will doubtless add many honors to those which
he has already won.
The Putnam County Agricultural Pair.
From the “Committee on Invitations” we
have received an invitation to attend this Fair,
which is to be held in Eatenton, commencing
on Wednesday next, the 21st instant, for which
courtesy we return our acknowledgments. Ac
companying the invitation, we have received a
list of the premiums to be distributed on the
occasion, ninety-five in number, together with
the assurance that “ should any work of merit
in any ot the several departments be presented,
which is not included in the list, a suitaule
reward will be given for the same.” The “ Ex
ecutive Committee” have also issned the follow
ing circular:—
“ As the representative ol the Planters’ Club
of Middle Georgia, the undersigned beg leave to
call your attention to the fact that this Associa
tion designs holding an Agricultural Fair at
Eatonton, commencing October 21st, 1868, and
earnestly request you to present such articles ot
farm produce or domestic manufacture as you
mav see proper.
We are aware that many persons are, from a
want ot a proper appreciation of their products,
not readily disposed to become exhibitors. Allow
us to hope you will overcome any such modesty,
whicb, however, appreciable, is apt to restrain
the most deseryiug, and well calculated to defeat
the commendable objects ot such an exhibition
as we propose. Let not our unfortunate circum
stances prevent our using every effort to restore
the prosperity of our favored section.
Arrangements will be made for the safe and
comfortable accommodation ot Stock, and stor
age furnished for such articles as the ladies may
see fit to contribute.
Hoping to have your co-opertioo, we invite
your attention to the enclosed Premium List.
The Railroad and Express Companies have
agreed to forward Stock and articles designed
for exhibition for one tare.
During the week addresses and discussions of
a practical character will be heard, and such
amusement furnished as will make a visit to the
Fair profitable and pleasant.
Anything you may design tor exhibition, if di
rected to either of the undersigned, will be prop
erly entered.”
We notice, also, that the “Annual Ball” of the
“Club” will come oft on the night of the 22d,
and a “Tournament” on the 23d instaut. These
are all great attractions, and we have no doubt
will draw large numbers to the Fair. “Old Put
nam” is proverbial for the intelligence and hos
pitality of her people, as well as for the interest
which her farmers have always manifested in
agricultural pursuits and whatever pertains there
to, either as a result, or promotive of the best
interests thereol. That the forthcoming Fair
will be a success, we have no doubt, and should
it be convenient, the Intelligencer will be
represented on the occasion.
Mysterious Disappearance of a Well-
Known Citizen op Louisville, Ky.—Heavy
Insurance on His Life.—Mr. E. D. Tyler, a
well-known insurance agent ot Louisville, Ky.,
took passage ou tiie steamer Polectine for Con
cordia, on Friday evening last. At Portland a
stranger also took passage, and as the boat was
crowded he was put into the state-room with
Tyler. Ou the arrival of the boat at Coueordia
in the morning, the strauger told the clerk that
Tyler left the state-room in the night, leaving bis
watch and other valuables behind. The stran
ger left the boat at Evansviile, having his lett
arm in a slmg and liis head tied up. He walked
with great difficulty, but no suspicions were ex
cited until it was learned that Tyler was not on
the boat, and had not been seen since he weuc
into his state-room the night before. It is the
belief that the stranger murdered Tyler in the
state-room and threw his body overboard, though
the motives which prompted the act are not sur
mised, as Tyler’s pocket-book, watch, Ac., were ,
not taken by him. Tvier had some $50,000 in- j pages in to-morrow s paper for .his advertisement
is said to 1 of the Ledger. The answer Wits, jes; if he
Irishmen and. Germans, Read.
There is a Republican Irish Club being or
ganized in this city (ou paper) to which we com
mend the following, from that leader and light
in the Republican party, the Rev. Henry Ward
Beecher:
the negro and emigrant contrasted.
[Extract from his speech at the Academy ot Music,
Brookl)n, October 9.1
It is quite Tfi vain to quote to one about the
voting ot these poor Southern hordes. I have
seen descriptions in letter writing, and (Jon’t
douht those descriptions are true. I havegeen
accouuts ot the way men voted in many otmiose
Southern precincts—quite ridiculous it was, aud
I could not, Republican as I am, help laugdjflfc.
But laughing is tree yet iu this country, Which
ever side a man is on, and I bethought mysell
that these hordes of black voters, that don’t
know how to read, that don’t know the men,
that don’t know what the word “ suffrage”
means, believes that it is, perhaps, an
idol or something of that sort. This may be
very ridiculous, but really I can point out a gang
of emigrants iu New York that will vote just as
ridiculously as that. I don’t think that Southern
planters have yet acted iu such a manner as we
see occasionally in these New York wards. Ig
norant voting! The planter votes. The liquor
shop votes. One party says, “How would you
like to have your black lolks brought up on an
equality and vote alongside of you ?” I would
answer that I have to bear the emigrant vote
right up along side of us ; aud it is not hard to
bear the black man when we can bear that. We
have not only learned to bear it, but when they
complain they have been carried through a very
trying ordeal, we say, “Gentlemen, you are not
suffering any more than we have suffered; not a
bit more This experiment ot free voting in the
South we have already tried in the North.”
The Republicai^leaders all thus talk or preach,
while Beecher speaks thus, in public. The ne
gro, they all tell us, is held as a hostage to offset
the German and Irish vote.—N. T. Express.
The Art of Money-Maktng-What a Sen*
gible Muu has to Say about It.
In a recent lecture Prof. H. G. Eastman said,
on the subject of advertising, that those who had
been most generous in their advertising and
thereby the most successful in business, had been
stigmatized as “ humbugs.” Was Barnum’s
Museum any the less worthy after he had suc
cessfully advertised it ? Was the Ledger any
better before Bonner bought out one day’s issue
of the New York Herald, than it was after
wards ? Was Stewart’s store any the less worthy
ot pubiic patronage, after paying $22,000 per
year tor a man to advertise, when the payment
of that $22,000 gave $100,000 in return ? There
is no such thing as “humbug.” A man is either
a knave, charlatan, or else he can be classed
among business men as a man.
The proper way to advertise was to advertise
one thing at a time. As tor instance sugar
sugar, sugar. People would have their atten
tion arrested by that one word, and they would
buy sugar. The result would be that a large
business would be established. But if people
would advertise all they had to sell they would
uot succeed, because their advertisement would
not be read. This was so with everything. If
you aie a dry goods merchant, silks or some
other article iuu.-.t be advertised, and that alone.
An excitement must be made and business would
follow.
The merchants ol Europe beat us in adver
tising. They tiequentiy spend $100,000 per year
for advertisements. A. T. Stewart advertised
his cotton goods alone all over the Union. Mr.
Bonner once went to Mr. Beunett, or the New
\ ork Herald, and asked if lie could have three
surance on his iife, $10,000 ol which
a matter ot success! Well, gentlemen, if it is
so, then since 1779 up to 1865 the American
people have been satisfied aud delighted with
the most atrocious lailure in government which
the world has ever seen.
But I will tell you, my friends, what recon
struction does succeed iu, and that is in forging
together into one homogenous white-hot mass the
Southern whites, in inspiring them with a hate
which the war never stirred, in driving them to
a desperariou which is as yet tempered with
hope, and inspiring them with that terrible in
centive to mad deeds, “there can be nothing less
tolerable than this.” You may suppress them
to-day, you may hold them down by force to
morrow, you may shoot this man and hang that,
trample out the insurrection here and stifie a
riot there; but sooner or later, it the Southern
people are convinced that they have the last
word Irorn the North, see to it tha
be vigilant, and your guard strong.

of his body.
Apostolic Letter from the Pope.—The
Giornale di Roma brings the text of the Apos
tolic letter addressed by the Pope to all the bish
op* ot the East who are not in communion with
the Holy See. ILs Holiness, turning his eyes
toward those churches which formerly depend
ed on the Apostolic See by ties of unity, deplores
the schism which has so long separated them,
aud recalls to their memory that at the com
mencement of his pontificate he addressed to
those churches words ol peace and charity. Al-
would pay a d« >»bie fvrice- he could have all he
wanted, upon which Mr. Bonner said that he
would take the whole paper. The consequence
was that the Herald, tue next day, had nothing
but Mr. Bonner's advertisement of the Ledger in
it. Ou one pa=:e in large letters, it was stated
that an article written by Henry Ward Beecher
wouid he iu the Ledger, and so on through the
whole eight pages. Mr. Bouner did not adver
tise ail lie had to=el!, but only attracted atten
tion to the Ledger. Peopie who wish to succeed
must use their brains; they must not depend
upon labor.

NEW YORK ASSOCIATED PRESS DISPATCHES
From Washington.
Washington, October 15.—The summary of
election news culled from Massachusetts is con
flicting and meagre reports. Pennsylvania, Re
publican majority about 10,000 ; Covade’s elec
tion more probable; securing a Republican Sen
ator vice Buckalew. The Age estimates the ma
jority in the State at 3000.
The latest advices from Ohio indicate 15,000
Republican majority.
Indiana very close, Baker’s election, however,
regarded certain. Yoorhee’s election is claimed
by the Democrats.
Weather continues cold and rainy.
Greesburg, Pa., Oct 15.—Every township
in the 21st District heard from which gives
Covade 29 majority.
London, October 15.—The American doctrine
is hilly maintained in the treaty just concluded
regarding naturalization. Johnson and Stanley
are now considering the Alabama’s claims.
Burlingame and his Chinese are gaining
ground. Vesuvius is becoming violent, itn-
meuse streams of lava is flowing from the cra
ters.
NIGHT DISPATCHES.
Washington, October 15.—Geu. Hancock
has arrived. The World in a double leaded ar
ticle suggests a change iu candidates.
Revenue to-day $261,000.
John Phillips, an Englishman, recently dis
charged from the Freedmen’s Bureau cut his
throat fatally, druuk.
Customs from the 1st to 10th inclusive, live
and a quarter millions.
The following, owing to bad weather, reached
here too late for the noon reports:
Thos. R. Laird was appointed Revenue Su
pervisor for the Dirtrict composed of Virginia
and West Virginia. Howard has issued orders
to the Assistant Commissioner of the Freed
men’s B&reau to close his office on November
1st.
Indiana close, official returns needed to decide
whether Hendricks or Baker is elected. Hol
man aud Voorhees have been elected by a gain
of one. Democracts gain eight Congressmen
and lose one in Tuesday’s election. Nothing
further regarding majorities in Pennsylvania or
Ohio, but it is believed the Republican esti
mates are considerably too large. Latest returns
make the majority in Pennsylvania from ten to
fifteen thousand, Ohio about the same. Both
will probably be reduced by further returns.
Norfolk, Va, October 15.—The business
committee reported in favor ot the adoption of a
resolution of the Bristol Convention regarding
direct communication between Europe and Nor
folk. The Mississippi and Ohio Valley Report
adopted, and $150,000 subscribed—Norfolk took
$50,000, Nashville $25,000, Petersburg $20,000,
etc. The planters are holding a mass meetiug
to consider the propriety of subscribing $100,000.
Charleston, October 15.—John Quincy Ad
ams has accepted an invitation from tlie De
mocracy of Charleston to visit their city and ad
dress them. He is expected there to morrow.
Savannah, October 15.—The Democrats hold
a public meeting to-night. Hon. A. H. Hansel'
and others will speak.
New York, October 15.—The Henry Chaun-
cey brings a quarter of a million.
Chiriqui revolted from Panama and whipped
the Government troops, killing their command
er. Commander Olbalia invites Panama troops
to land in Chiriqui. He is anxious to whip
them.
London, October 15.—Dispatches from Spain
report the Bishop of Tarragonia at the head of
two thousand men declared against the Junta.
Forty Acres and no Mule.—We do not
know how many negroes have received from
the “ party of progress and great moral ideas,”
the promised “ forty acres of land and a good
mule,” but we are credibly informed that the
Democrats of Marion, South Carolina, have
purchased and presented to each of the fifteen
negroes who had the courage to go to the polls
and vote with and for their old masters, with
the title deeds to forty acres of good land near
that town. Well done for Marion; that is the
way to enable the negroes to find out who are
their true friends; they are fast becoming dis
gusted with the miserable wretches who have
thus far led them on toward ruin,
and it the whites of the South would
take a little trouble to let them under
stand that we intend to stand by those
who stand by us, and to let those who go with
our enemies get their bread and butter from the
party they go with, we think many of the best
of the negroes would begin to look at this mat
ter in its true light, and before the election there
would be a great change in their views and their
votes. It only requires that the citizens of the
South, on whom the negroes are entirely de
pendent for food, clothiug and shelter, shall
calmly and firmly resolve not to aid or employ
those who are determined to go with the scala-
wag-carpet-bag-radical party, aud in one mouth
there would be no such party in the South.—
Thiuk ot this, men of the South, and settle in
your minds whether you prefer to be ruled
as you are, or to make a small sacrifice to secure
your liberty.—Charleston Mercury.
Health of the British Queen.—The Brit
ish Medical Jouonal contains the subjoined state
ment: “We regret to say that the paragraph in
laBt Saturday’s Lancet respecting the health of
her Majesty has very little foundation. Tlie
health of the Queen has, we hope, received some
benefit from the change of air and scene, and
rest from her onerous public duties; but while
her Majesty will continue, as heretofore, to reg
ulate public business, the Queen will not, we
fear, be able to bear the fatiguing excitement of
a lengthened residence in London, and ot the
continued receptions attendant on such circum
stances.”
Nothing is so much a failure as some suc
cesses. People often think they win when they
only lose, (cheating may seem a gain, but the
one who makes it is a loser. Success in any
thing that is not clearly fair and right is a fail
ure; while every effort iu the rignt' direction is
a success. If a stranger to anytuiug ol the sort,
try and see.
Five capital trials are to come off before the
Supreme Court 01 New Hampshire, to sit on the
20th inst., in Portsmouth. That State is gov
erned by all the morality. If it were a Southern
monarchy, the lact we have stated above would
afford rich and racy comments to the “ moral ”
press as to the dastardly character of the “ un
repentant rebels.”
