ATHENS, CEC RCIA.
FRIDAY MORNING, JUNE 88, 1871.
,jj . mm jb._--a- -g
Tlic later* iririTx.
There tins of hire Isreii «cnt out from
X. w York atmdi h*t of wandering Tags'.
Uiwh, who prowl about the cuwtry get*
ting op sensational letters to tho daily
papers of that city. The more falsehoods
and defamation ‘they crowd into their
letters, th r I letter do they please their
masters. Though their employers hare
a thousand times declared that loyal men
aro fat danger in this benightt d region,
they are sent South with the most reek-
lew disregard for the safety of their car
casses. Two of these creatures have re
cently viaited Georgia, and have inter
viewed Mr. Stephens; Mr. -TooiiiIm, and
other prominent men. Mr. Stephens has
been forced to correct various perversions
of ids remarks, made by one Smalley, ol
the Tribune, notwithstanding the writer
admitted that he was requested not to
refer to Mr. Stephens' political views.
Smalley abused the hospitality extended
him by the most off ndvt- allusions to tlic
simplicity which it pleases Mr. Stephens
to maintain in Ids domestic life. It is to
be regretted that the invalid of Liberty
Hall allows such creatures to crawl nlmut
him for the pnqiose of making political
capital at the North.
The same seribhlrr visittd Gen. Toomlis
and that gentlemen gave him a fragrant
dish of reckless and unwise utterances,
which are lieing copied all over the
North, as the sentiments of a representa
tive tuan at the South. Among other
things reported as said by Mr. Toombs,
was a remark that a vast majority of the
Southern people feel as he does, and that
the Editors and policy men nlnmt the
towns do not represent the people. The
light estimate placed bv Gen. Toombs on
Editors is nothing new; in- has amused
himself for years in public and private,
with diatribes against them; and they
are by no means the only parties who
hare lotfg since cessed to regard that
brilliant scold as a representative of
Southern opinion or Southern policy. It
is iraitless for us, or for all the Editors in
Groigia, to protest against the assertions
put into his mouth by Smalley; they
have gone on their mission of mischief,
and the balance of that great man's life,
iaithihlly bestowed on the work of secur
ing a good government tor the people he
loves, will not reiuur the mischief worked
by the harrangue which Smalley gather
ed from an hour’s interview.
The history of the last ten years has not
tended to increase theestimatwrf the peo
ple for the opinions of many they have
l*e«n proud to honor »a leaders; and it is
mournful to observe that while our
brightest intellects have beeu barred from
their old places in the public councils,
their private lives Jinvc not always been
illustrated by that* degree of wisdom,
putdrncc and patience which the exi
gencies of the times demand, and which
res! statesmen ought to exercise.
Death of Hon. C. L. Vallandigham.
This distinguished gentleman met a
very sad and tragic death on Tuesday
In.-t. lie was attempting to show that
Myers, for whose murder he was de
fending a Mr. MeGehan, had shot him
self. He waa'in a' room at the hotel at
Lebanon, Ohio, with Lieut-Gov. Mo-
Burney, associate counsel in the de
fense of MeGehan, who doubted the
theory that Myers had shot himself.—
They had been out practicing with pis
tols to see how near a shot could be
made without being marked with pow
der. Two pistols were on the table,
one empty and oue with three charges
in it.. Mr. Vallandigham by mistake
took up the wrong pistol, and putting-
it into his pocket, withdrew it, holding
the muzzle next bis body, to show how
Myers might have been shot Just as
the pistol was leaving his pocket, it was
discharged, the ball entering the side,
almost precisely where Myers was shot.
At first Mr. Vallan.liglinni did not ap
pear to realize that the wound was se
rious, and walked about the room.—
Surgical aid was summoned, and it was
soon found that his case was alarming.
At first he felt no pain, but soon his
suffering lxscame intense. During the
n iglit he sunk rapidly, and died nltout
9 o’clock on Tuesday morning. He
retained consciousness up to almost the
last moment, and met death with the
same brave and manly self-possession
that had marked his whole life.
Mr. Vallandigham was born in New
Lisbon, Ohio, in 1822. He had filled
numerous responsible public positions,
and was a member of Congress for six
years. His arrest during the war, and
Imnishment South on account of his
opposition to the war, os well as his in
flexible devotion to Constitutional prin
ciples, endeared him to the Southern
people, and commanded the respect of
sound men everywhere.
Mr. Stephens—his Salutatory.
'Snakes Ahead.
Mr. Cook, father-in-law <>f II. I. Kim-
hall, and one of the lessees of the State
Road, stated at a meeting ot the corpora-
tore of the Columbus and Atlanta railroad
that the lessees of the State road wanted
this new road as a feeder and ally of the
State road.
The Savannah Adctrt'uri says that
proposition from the lessees of the State
Road la now pending for a union of the
Atlanta and Savannah road from Atlanta
to Tenntlle, with the State road. It is
claimed as a necessary cheek on the
movements of the Central and Georgia
roads.
This looks very much os though some-
beer sold on'thejnvnt lease
combination. Instead ot retaining the
Ktatr Road as a joint and impartial feeder
to the endorsing roads, it is possible that
they have got their fingers iu the lion's
mouth. <
The impudence of the operation is so
amazing that it wnuld be incredible if
the lease were held by anybody else. Just
think at Cameron &Co, coming to Geor
gia and bamboosUng the Democrats into
tearing the road ia. the.interest of the
Radieal party, securing the influence of
the leading roods of tlm State to consum
mate and endorse the job, and then in
less than six months gravely and public,
ly proposing to build lines to destroy
their endorser*.
And yet the stock holders in the en
rioraing muds are supposed to assent to
the scheme* of the
We have no particular sympathy for
them or their roads; nor do we care how
many roads Cameron &Co.. may build in
Georgia- Bat for the chib! of a railroad
combination to turn round and gobble
up its parents, is a« much an anomaly in
railroads, as Grant’s central policy is in
pclitic*. The world moves.
The following introductory article,
by Hon. A. II. Stephens, on taking
charge of the political department
of the Daily Sun, will he read with
interest:
Since the “ Announcement 1 ' of
Mr. Speights on the 15th inst, it is
proper for me to state to the pat
rons of the Sun that, iu consenting,
as one of the propriitors to take
charge of the Political Department
of this paper, my object is to make
it a true organ of the Jeffersonian
principles of the Federal Govern
ment, under which the Peoples of
the United States lived in so great
peace, prosperity and happiness for
more than half a century. The ob
ject will lie to advocate such doc
trines as will secure a perpetual
and harmonious union of the States
under the Constitution, in the spirit
and for the purposes for which it
was originally made by the fathers;
and upon the principles announced
by Jefferson, maintained by Madi
son, and set forth by Gen. Jackson
in his “ authorized” explanation of
the principles of his Proclamation
the Nullification movement in
South Carolina in 1832, and in his
Farewell Address.
Upon these principles and those
announced by Gen. Washington, lie"
who was “ first in war, first in |H*aee,
ind fir-t in the hearts of his coun
trymen,’’ the Sun will stand. Its
|H<aitioii will lw, that the Govern
ment of the United States is a
“ Confederated” or “ Federal Re
public,” formed by the States, pos
sessing in itself no inherent Sover
eignty; hut that all its sovereign
Powers— which arespeeificand lim
ited-are field entirely by delega
tion from the several States, and
that the States are absolutely Sov
ereign in the exercise of all reserved
or nndelegated Powers.
The Sun, under my general con
trol of its political course, will con-
Witb regard to the past usurpa
tions and revolutionary measures of
Congress since the restoration of the
Union in 18R5. by the resumption
• •I tl*«-ir ohlignth.m to the Union
under the Constitution, by all the
f tes.which had attempted to with*

the war was professed to be waged
iti opposition to this attempt, the
Sun will advocate and enjoin strict
obedience to all acts of Congress
and acts of State Legislatures under
them which have the form of law
as expounded by the courts, State
and Federal, and imposed by those
in authority clothed with power to
execute them.
Constitutional Lilierty is the off
spring of liaison—not of physical

The ratification of all political
wrong? and usurpations under oar
systems of Government, sltoald be
sought through the instrumentali
ties of the Constitution—through
'.he peaceful oj>eration of the ballot
—the Legislative, Judicial, and Ex
ecutive Departments of tlie Govern
ment.
But no people devoted to Consti
tutional law, need ever expxrt to
secure a rectification of admitted
usurpations of Power by granting,
in advance, a general absolution to
the perpetrators of them. Tte pcs
sit ion of The Sun towards all usur
pations by Congress, will bo the
same as that ot Mr. Jefferson to
wards the “ Alien and Sedition”
acts. This is quite enough for the
present.
It is proper, however, to add for
general information, that it is not I

my ever being able physically to do
so, even if I were inclined. All
coin mnriicntlfltis, therefore, to me,
connected with my engagement
with the Sun, must be addressed to

Alexander II. Stephens,
. The Amendments.
The 14th and 15th amendments
cannot be Feached unless through a
long struggle and a tedious process, if
ever reached at all. The action of the
Democracy would be probably no
more than a constant active protest
against the wrong done to the great
principles upon which the government
was fouuded. While, however, the
Democracy are engaged in the strug-
gle to ri"ht what they consider a great
wrong, tlie revolutionary leaders who
did the wrong are at work with in
creased advantages which a distracted
opposition give, to fix upon the country
ges that shall, if successful, make
the whole Constitution a dead letter,
change States into Territories, cen
tralize the whole governing power, and
establishan empire under, the. form
and name of a republic. V
The lesser wrong should not be per
mitted to blind the country to the
ater danger. We would advise the
mocracy to take the ground bold!

lly, clearly and unequivocal-
disturbing the amendment;
that however much the Demo
cratic party regarded them as having
been accomplished in antagonism to
voluntary government, the very ground
work of the Union, and therefore vici
ous as a precedent for future admini
strations, it will nevertheless hold
them as no longer within the domain
of political agitation. The manner of
their adoption and their invasion of
the reserved rights of each individual
State, is dangerous os a precedent, and
os a precedent can be always fought
by the Democracy without at all dis
turbing the amendments themselves.
It is the construction that is being put
on the fourteenth and fifteenth amend
ments which we arc now called upon
to combat. Like iu the days of the
supremacy of the Federal party at the
commencement of the government, the
attempt was made by construction to
establish the powers of a monarchy in
the Federal Government, the first
fruits of which were the Alien and
Sedition laws, and which attempt was
resisted by the Democratic party un
der the lead of Jefferson, so now the
old battle must be fought over again,
and btween parties of like principles.
As then, to combat the dangers of
construction which the Federalists
wanted to engraft upon the Constitu
tion, it was not deemed necesscuy by
the Democracy to destroy the Consti
tution, or any particular article of it,
so now the Democracy can combat the
dangerous construction which the sham
Republican party (which is the Federal
party in prinaple) wishes to have the
country sanction as legitimately spring
ing from the fourteenth and fifteenth
amendments without at all disturbing
the amendments themselves.
Presidential Feelers.
A lmost every tiny we notice cir

South urging the claims of Kimre
Presidential aspirant We have re
cently received n pamphlet in the
interest of Gen. Hancock, and var
ious papers endorse him as a prop

standard. Peter R. Swei-ey, >4
Tammany Half, is also said tit 1st a
‘• very great and good mun, and all-
powerful in New York.” ^Imlge
Chase significantly endorses the new
»ie|wrture, and is evidently willing
to serve his country as a Democratic
chief magistrate. Hoffman and

So'ithcuniiut <'X!«vt to find rit tlid
tinuc to stand upon the principles
■of the platform of the Demcoratic
Party of the Union,* ns announced
in their last General Convention at
New York, iii 18f&.
A chief object will be to show by
calm and argumentative appeals to
the good sense and patriotism of
the true friends ol the Constitution,
North as well as South, that any
departure from the essential princi
ples of that platform will be exceed
ingly,dangerou* if m*.fetal, to the
liberties of the whole country.
The great u living issue” now be
fore the Peoples ofthe United States,
is between Consolidation, Central
ism and Empire on the one side,
and the sacred sovereign right of
local self-government by the Peo
ples of die several States on the
other; or, in other words:. The
great question now is whether the
Peoples of these States are to live
under a government of laws ora
government of bayonets. This is
the great practical, absorbing, “liv

ed at our last annual iheetipg, to
throw together a few random
thoughts, which perhaps nmy not
have suggested tliemselves'to you.
I was myself much touched by the
spirit of that appeal, and I earnest
ly hope that it may find emotions
vibrating in correspondence to it in
the heart of eveiy Alumnus in the
land. I have by tne a roll of our
membership, 1welve Hundred (1200)
Graduates / The record shows the
deaths, only down to 1857; but with
the widest margin allowed for mor
tality, certainly eight hundred (800)
or nine hundred (900) of us still
survive. \ *
Now I <les : re Indore God, whose
goodness gave us the opportunities
we have enjoyed, to ask thefee nine
hundred men—have you done your
duty to your .lhna Mater ? And
do not deem me a visionary dream
er in putting the question. I atn
very well aware that we cuuriqt all
of us be members of the LsgUlar
ture, and, therefore, cannotal{ of us
vote for measures fraught with good
to the College. This is bu^one of
many ways in which you jjghwork
for our "Old .Mother..
them:’
1st. You can all use youfperson
al, individual influence trocteate a
more general interest amo^g the
a le at large in favor of r the
■gc; and there are many .modes
of doing this, too; for example, (a)
von can correct the foolish, un
founded, and, still, continually re
curring charge that the University
is not a religious institution. You
can say that the University cannot,
froth tne nature of things, be a De
nominational College, but if every
other characteristic of an institu
tion conducted upon the strictest
models of Christian morality are
not to be found there, they cannot
be found anywheie. The Profes
sors are every one ol them,’'without
exception, active meinbefis of the
four great religious denominations,
and there arc always in attendance
many students educating them
selves for the ministry. But (h)
you can exert jour personal influ-
erne to direct\patn»nage toward the
College. Very few njer* are in
positions so lowly that they cannot
affect one man. If each of us .-eat
one student to Athens next year,
the College would float clear of all
shoals. And again (c), yon can in
directly influence public opinion by
advocating anywhere, and every
where, a more liberal spirit in the
education of our youth. Show the
vast advantages of a College Edu<*
cation to those recipients of it who
do not abuse those advantages, and
disprove the assei tion that- a College
is a nest of idleness and ’extrava-
,nce by attributing such resuls to
the bad training of the boy at home,
and not necessarily to temptations
met abroad. As well saV that re
ligion is a humbug because there
are unwprtby. member*, olw the
Church, as to declare a College to
he a School of Evil bccanke certain
bad young men are found Within
its walls.
2d. Some of you have very ex
traordinary opportunities of be
friending your Alma Mater. You
are wealthy, have for more than
will supply your wants a thousand
times multiplied. What a noble
appropriation would yon make of
the superfluous riches the Almighty
has given you, by endowing a Pro
fessorship in tlie State University!
We hear continually of this lieing
done for the Sectarian Colleges.
There are Nott Professorships and
Hitchcock, Professorships and inu
merable other chairs' founded by
tlie men whose names they bear. I
h ive yet to learn of a.* solitary
foundation made for any $tate In
stitution, save the munificent dona
tion of Dr. Terrell, constituting the
Terrell Professorship of Agricul
ture, at Athens. And yet what
nobler monument could a m^’i meet
to his memory than this? But
suppose you are very, far Irotn be
ing able to endow a Chair; then
perhaps yon area Minister o f> the j
Goejiel, a lawyer, or a pliysu ihn ; j
in either of these three capacities*
you are liable to be culled to the
bedside of the sick and dying
wealthy, and unlimited opportnni- I
ties are afforded you of inducing I
such men to
should be appropriated out of the
Common School Fund, towards the
expenses, at- the
one student from
ppropriation to

given to the most meritorious stu
dent, after a competitive examin

Let every Georgian whose eye
falls upon this act blush for his
Stale,. Let every Alumaus of the

in future. Do I ask too much in

not arrested, and the party that ia its
father and friend is not consigned to
tlie grave fur this atrocious assault
upon American freedom, then will the
whole constitntion be overthrown,
every barrier raised by the fathers of
