It wtu Jog OtnroUfy and Ks-KIst Mor ality—“Uing King" os area by o Geor gia Kill tor l The insolent old Rum Jug of tho Savannah News, alluding to the Editor of this paper, says : * • “Any kind of villains are pre ferable to kiicIi villainous specimens of hu manity us have emerged to Georgia, from Sing Slug.” And again Uo lays : “It is .to be deplored bv tho country that Hi© walls of Sing Sing are not sufficiently secure to pre vent the grudimtf a of that institution from en oaping, Ac." W© reproduce these paragraphs lor no oth er purpose than that of Rhowiug the unituua of the Ku-KJux press in Georgia. And by Ku-Klux press we do not mean the better and abler class of Democratic journals. .We mean such dirty sheets as the Savanoab News, ed ited by u man who has neither origin, history nor respectable position; and whose ignorance is equaled only by bis hellish malevolence. Th© editor of this journal does not feel offend ed at anything such a brut© beast may say; if he did. and thought the “game worth the candle," he might reply ud humenim, and touch upon points where vulnerableniRs is least suspected! Suffice it to say however, that much inoru is known of the personal history of certain Kn-Elux editors in Georgia, thau their obscurity would seem to warrant; and when tho skin of the whelp is not torn from the useenm© assumptions of greatness and “respectability,” it is only because it is deemed a profitless, no loss than a disgusting operation, Sing Sing?

Van Ooortlnnd, the friend of President Tyler, and at whose house th© wife of the President was a ficqnent visitor, lived in Sing Sing! Washington Irving, the Addison of America, lived within a lev miles of the Sing Siug prison b* II. The Rev. I)r. Creighton, late provisional Bishop of New York, was a “Sing Singer”—that is. he lived in the rui- hnrbnn villa known ns Sing Sing; and since there was n Penitentiary there, he, too, must have l*e©n one <>t its graduates ! The Living stons, of Revolutionary fame, were natives and residents of the vicinity of Sing Sing! Gen. Aaron W rd, for many yours one of the great Democratic lights and an influential member of Congress in the former days of the Republic, was from this some Sing Sing. John Jay, one of ih© Justices of the Supremo Court, and the colemporary of Hamilton, Washing ton, Adams and Jefferson, was a native and resident of Westobcstcr county, in w hich Sing Sing iu located; and one of his descendants, the present Minister to Russia, still owns and (when nt home) occupies the old domicile. Hence both Washington and Grant must have selected their justice* and foieign Ministers from among tho “graduates’’ of Sing Sing 1 Dr. A. K. Hoffman, father of the present Gov ernor of New York, lived, and still lives in Sing Sing, and about one mile from the prison. Therefore, according to this Savannah Rum Jug expositor, his son John, the Governor, must have been boru and raised in the Sing Siug Prison!

Woaie not aur© tut that Senator Hendricks, of Iudiaua, lives within nnd or sight of the State Prison of that State. Therefore, according to this same Rum Jug authority, he would not be deemed “respecta ble” in Goorgis, notwithstanding iho fact that h© was a Deinoernlic member of the United Stab h Semite! Jmu.s K.
