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. dred dollars reward is offered lor the recovery 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.

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.” TUBA T lilt! ! j. v.
