Ac. This is wall oalcuUtad to plao© General Tsrry in © fcd*© position with thoa© who may ©ot know th© Mot©. Qsuorai Tarry i© not © politician, and ha© taken no part whatever in tho political combinations or personal dispute© of politfoiaua In this State. Aa an army offl- oat, entrusted by hit Government with th© dt©efcarge of certain ©pacific duties, he has ta ken no part, directly or lodlreotly, in th© Meal polities in Georgia. But aa au Individual—aa a private geutlo- man~-i© th© capacity simply of a ciueon, «ud ©cl iu his offioial capacity, he did desire to Me harmony and good feeling among the officials of tho Government; and, aa auob, he delicate ly aud prudently ©ought reconciliation between them as individuals, and not as politicians. Thia ia all the foundation there is for the state- mouts of our talented ootuuij>oiarj ; aud upon reflection, he cannot fail to see that his article above alluded to, is well calculated (though unintentional) to put General Tarry in a false light before the publie. The efforts of the General to rnako peace whore disagreement oould result in no practical good; and bis dis interested offices to that end, as a private gen tleman, were ocrtainly laudablo; uuloas, indeed, the Constitution conceives it a dnty to on- courage strife, ill feeling and recrimination, rather thau to seek to allay it—a supposition which we deem inadmissable. We do not beliav© that our good Demooratic neighbor would wantonly misrepresent Gen. Terry or place him in a false attitude before the public; and hence we have thought proper to make this explanation. Surely any Chris tian gentleman who desires to see his neigh bors and friends at peace, may, as a mere pri vate gentleman, and not aa an official, become a peace maker without coming under the ban of condemnation! As General Terry, in his official capacity, he is in no way identified with the squabble© and misunderstanding© of local politicians. But as a patriotic citizen, and one who held nothing in common with the political fortune© of any mere partisan, he desired to see peaoe and harmony among the officers of the State Government; and as a private citizen he made the advances he did just as any other educated and refined gen tleman might have done under the circum stances without subjecting his motives to crit- cism at the hauds of either party. He done no more than Chief Justice Chase, Presidont Grant, Ex-President Fillmore or any other enlightened gentlomon might havo dono un der bimilar circumstances.

But wa brand the letter and tb© ©xtraot from the letter aa forgeries. No such letter as that which the Gold Ring gave to the public yes terday was ever written by Mrs. Grant Not a line over proceeded from that lady or from the President, in any manner recognizing or dirocting gold or any other speculation© Any letter whioh is alleged to have been written by either, of the nature of that whioh haa keen published, ia a base and wicked fraud. It is a forgery, aud on© in perfoot keeping with other measures resorted to by the gold conspirators. Whether Mr, Corbin haa at any timo pre tended to be In receipt of special advices in regard to his speculation© from the President or from Mrs. Grant, we cannot undertake to say. Ho is evidently a weak mao, aud has played a very foolish part In one way or another, he has been associated with the Erio gang, and has been an instrument in their hands. For what he may have said or done, neither General nor Mrs. Grant is accounta ble. lie must bear the oonsequences of his folly, and must divide with his speculative as sociates the responsibility for the scandal which has been cast upon the President and his household. The essential fact in tho controversy, and that which no amount of details oan be allowed to keep out of sight, is the total absence of el* connection between tho President and the gold speculation. Whether Corbin or Butterfield is better or worse than he professes to be, is a small matter in tb© estimation of the publio. That which concerns the oonntry in this con nection is the oondnet of its President. And since it has been afresh impugned, we assert most positively, as we asserted in the first in stance, that at no time, in no way, haa Gen. Grant, or Mrs. Grant, had the remotest inter est in any speculative transaction, whether re lating to gold or bonds. Noither with Corbin nor Fisk, neither with Butterfield nor Gould, have they held correspondence touching the late gold conspiracy ; and any allegation to the oontrary is unqualifiedly false.—A T . Y.

Why ia an enraged soaks Uk© the letter M? Beoaosa it ia an Asp-irate. The Lsit of And7 Johnson. After a gallant fight in the Tennessee Legis lature, Andy Johnson, as a candidate for the United State© Senate, has been defeated by Henry Cooper, brother of Edmund Cooper, who was Mr. Johnson’s private Secretary in the Whito House. The decisive ballot stood —Henry Cooper 65, Andrew Johnson 61. Cooper, a mernbor of the StAte Senate, is said to bo an able and rising politician of the con servative school. We are disappointed in the result We had hoped and expected the elec tion of Andy Johnson, and we desired it be cause he was the very man wanted in tho Sen ate at Washington to stir up the impeachment Radicals, to expose their delinquencies and corruptions, Aud to keep tho fire up aud the pot boiling. But Andy has failed, anil we have to lament his defeat We lament it beouuse, at his time of life, we fear it is the last of Johnson. H~ fell between two fires-between the remorse less radicals and the implaoable ex-rebels who combined against him. On both sides the record of Johnson was used to defeat him.— The radicals produced tho rooord of his M with Congress and hia impeachment; the rebels Haunted his Tennessee record os Mili tary Governor, his speeohes to the negroes promising to be their Moaes, and telling the rebels that they ninst take back seats; and his Washington record as a radical, iuclfiding hia rewaid of one hundred thousand dollars for the capture of Jeff. Davis and the hangir Mrs. 8urratt Among the chivalry of the nessee Legislature this was the unpardonable offense, tbo hanging of Mrs. 8armtt. No ac count was taken of the terrible excitement and consternation in Washington at tho time, and the tremendous pressure upon JoL against the conspirators in the Lincolu der, and especially against Mrs. Surratt. This is a strange ending of the political life of Johusou, considering his numberless par dons to rebels, beginning with his twenty tnousaml dollar schedule and ending in his final Amnesty, which swept tha whole board— Mason, Slidell, Jake Thompson, Jeff. Davis and all. But all this did not suffice to atone for tho hanging of Mrs. Surratt Yet Andy made n good fight, and would have won it but for the fonrteon romorseless radicals dead sot against him and dead set against Etheridge. There is some comfort in the deteat of Ethe ridge, for he has the reputation of nothing better than a bag of wind; but wo regret the defeat of Johnson. We think it is the last of him as An aotive politician, and that he will probably retire upon hia laurels to tho shades of Greenville, make a now suit of clothes for himself and then write a book. He could get twenty thousand dollars for a book on the ups and downs, the ins and outs, the pipe layers aud dead ducks, the kitehou cabinet, the lobby and the mysteries and miseries of his administration.— N.

They promise to punish him for tho follies and sins of Oor- bin and Butterfield.

Their nliiuuce with Tammany, and the bleuding of partisan intrigue with gambling and speculative knavery, aro tboronghly un derstood. This knowledge of the assailants of General Grout predisposed the public to judge him favorably.
