J Atlanta, November 1, 1809. Mr. Editor: Atlanta if the largest oity in Georgia, and promises to be, at no distant day. the largest inland oity in the South. It is particularly important that it should be, in iU next municipal eleetioo, represented by some of Its purest and most intelligent citizens. It is an acknowledged truth that when bad men are elected to positions of honor and responsi bility, that it is regarded by good men abroad that those who elected them are as bad, if not worse. Jlonco it behoovea every voter in the oity, who has any self-respect or internet to i» rot set, to use thoir best efforts to elect suita- le persons -men who are honest and capable -men who are willing and able to sacrifice for the general good of the oity—men who would honor themselves at home and the city abroad —men who would not make theoffloe a source of reveune to themselves, but a benefit to all alike—men who could not be controlled by no party, bar-room, gambling or ohurch clique, nut alone by truth and the beet interest ot its citizens, white and oolored, rich and poor, Jew nmi Gentiles.

General Grant has not, from the outset, left the country in doubt with regard to the leading points of his polioy. When waited upon by the Joint Committee of Congress, on the 13th of February, to officially inform him of his election, he annoanoed his determina tion to falflU the just expectations of the peo ple. " I can promise the Committee, ” he said, “ that it will be my endeavor to coll around me as assistants such men only as I think will carry oat the principles which yoa have said the country desires to see successful—econo my, retrenchment, faithful collection of the revenue and the payment of the public debt. And with these objects in view, he declared that he would unhesitatingly change his ap pointees, if those first selected failed to co operate with him efficiently in the prosecution of his policy. There was no room for doubt or ambiguity upon the subject Gen. Grant bad resolved that, whatever might happen, "economy, retrenchment, faithful collection of the revenue and payment of the public debt should be the cardinal principles of the Administration. His pledge was voluntary £nd emphatic Ou the ocooaiou to wincC we refer another promise was made, also voluntarily and with equal emphasis. Mr. J. Y. L. Pruyn was present as a member of the Joint Committee. He was there as the representative of tbe Dem ocratic element in Congress. And when Gen. Grant indicated the distinctive points of the policy he contemplated, Mr. Pruyn, promptly and in apparent good faith, thus addressed him: " General : In the great principles which yoa have marked oat for the conduct of your Administration, you will have the political sup port of those icith whom / am associatel, ready to act with you." Here, then, are two promises—one intended to inform the country with reference to a mat ter which excited anxious inquiry, and the other apparently intended to assure the Presi dent elect that those who had opposed him were prepared to aid in the performance of his task. lias Gen. Grant redeemed his promise? Have Mr. Prnyn’s friends, for whom as a party ha spoke, redeemed theirs ? The answer in behalf of General Grant is clear and conclusive. What he promised he has performed. Economy and retrenchment are manifest in every branch of the public service. Within six months his Administra tion has effected a saving in expenditure of not less than $36,801,013; and the process still goes on. This diminution of outlay has not been effected at the oost of efficiency.— On the contrary, as a result of increased effi ciency, and that "faithful collection of the revenae’’ wbioh General Grant promised, the revenue for six months exhibits an odvanoe mounting to $19,660,143. As to tho reduc tion of the public debt, the record is quite as satisfactory. A single half year has witness ed the payment of $56,000,000 of the princi pal, and an appreciation in the value of the public securities which will greatly faoilitate funding at a lower rate of interest. So much for the President. He is vindicated by his acts. The policy he foreshadowed has been adhered to literally, and with excellent effect. Meanwhile tho pledge tendered by Mr. Frnyn has been regarded by tho party in whose name he addressed tho President. He promised that in the application of hia policy General Grant should have the political sup port bf the Democracy. Th# promiso has not bcon fulfilled. Instead of sustaining the Ad ministration in reducing and economizing ex penditures, in faithfully collecting the rovenuo, and In extinguishing the debt, the Democrats have offered nothing bat faotioua oppposition. Not content with slfowfngthe Administration to perform tho work, they have persistently striven to impede its progress. They credit it neither with cutting down expenses nor with increasing the productiveness of taxation; they neither concede what has been accomplished in the matter ol retrenchment nor accord it justice for the reforms It has introduced into tho pubUo service. The magnanimous spirit proclaimed by Mr. Pruyn Is proved to be a sham ; and n reckless partisanship, as Indifferent to truth and fair ness as to the pubMo weal, is found to bo tbe only spin! of which the party is sapable in its action toward the President and his advisers. The difference between General Grant and the Democratic party, in relation to retrench ment, flu efficient revenue service, and the re daction of the debt, is plain and characteris tic. He has kept his word ; they bsv# viola ted theirs. He has steadily and fluooessfnlly carried forward a policy which wiH bring relief to the country; they have as steadily obstruct ed reform and misrepresented its result The ooaUaat is between fidelity and A BY TELEGRAPH the Supreme Court of Georgia; with an Ap- peudix contaiging oasea decided by the Honorable John Erskine in the Circuit and Distriot Courts oi the United States tor Georgia. Vol. XXXV. By Logan E. Bleck ley, Reporter. Atlanta, Go., 1869. We, of the Bar, have no more agreeable evi dences of the actual progress of the South than the reappearance upon the green cloth of our office tables of tbe reports of adjudica ted coses in the oourts of the Southern Htatos. For several years, the different aeries of law reports in those States was wholly broken off; but one by one they are reappearing on the stage ot publication, and re-establishing them selves us of old. And although we suffer, perhaps, in the main, of late years, more by an excess of law reports, than by a dearth of them, we are happy to welootne volumes so valuable as this one of Mr. Bleokley. His present book givoc us seventy-one cases of decisions in the Supreme Court in the State; bot in addition to these we have a number of cases decided in the Federal Courts by Mr. Justice Erskine, well known to the Bar as one of the ablest jurists of the South. Jt is by these decisions of the learned justioe, which to the reader outside of the State limits form probably the most iuteresting portion of the volume, that our attention has been more es pecially arrested. They are characterized by unusual clearness of conception and of argu ment, and by an exact apprehension of tbe foroe and value of precedents. It is quite a carious incident that some of the same great constitutional questions which have come be- lore the Supreme Court of tho United States of late, came before the Cirouit or District Courts of Georgia at about the same time or shortly before; and that the decisions upon them have been identical with those in the highest courts of the land; anticipating them in fact by a short interval. In He parte Wil liam Law, (at page 286 of the voluino we are reviewing,) tho same question arose before and was adjudged by Mr. Justice Erskine, that aroso and was adjudged by the Supreme Court in Ex parte Garland (4 Wallace, 222). The su perior authority of tho decision in the higher court throws of course into some shade the mere decision in the lower one; but the opin ion of the District Judge, as givenTn the lat ter court, and as preserved in this volume, de serves, by its force and learning, to rank even by tho first men of the bar, iu tbe Supreme Court. We cannot soy more of it.—Philadel phia Legal Gazette. »<l 0 portiouolilp Which from nor <h.t r ~J( Bore-Eon Boyd » wM whM*. Mg but only tho | Tbe Poitofllcc Department Franking Abate. Postmaster General Creswell has been hard at work cutting down expenses and inaugura ting reforms in his department, and his forth coming report will presenta gratifying exhibit. Ou Juno 30, 1869, the end of the fiscal year, there were 5,094 contractors for carrying the mails, and there were 6,487 mail routes in operation. The aggregate length of the routes is 22,373 miles, and the aggregate annual trans portation 90,723,403 miles. Tho aggregate annual cost of transporting the mails during the time stated was $10,406,501, bat includ ing compensation of railway and postoffice clerks, route agents, local agents, mail mes sengers, Ac., which was $1,275,227, the aggre gate annual cost was $11,681,728. During the year, 6,803 miles were added to the mail ser vice. There was an increase of transporta tion from 1868 to 1870 of 6,499,078 miles, which oost $140,455, to which should be add ed the increased cost for railway, postal clerks and other agents, $160,594, making an aggre- gate cost of $299,949. These figures do not include services of special officers; this servioe is solf-snstaining. Mr. Creswell believes that tho department can and should be made self-sustaining ; and to this end he will urge the abolition of the letter-box delivery system, the reduction of the rate charged on registered letters, and re form in the matter of advertising so os to pre vent improper construction oi the laws iu favor of newspappers. He will likewise urge on abolition of the franking privilege, and if that cannot be effectod then a large abatement of its privileges. Peoplo irrespective of party will cordially support tbe Postmaster Goneral in doing away with this abuse, for that the frruking privi lege is not only an abuse but & shame has long been apparent. For years tbe mails bare been loaded down with political documents, agri cultural reports, and other refuse matter.— Newspaper correspondents, friends, relatives, and others have employed tbe franks of con gressional members to carry on both their public and private correspondence, while ao less than threo members of Congiess them selves have been detected within two years in extensively employing these franks to further their individual business. One residing in this city was recently shown to have franked circulars of his establishment all over the couutry, and then to have forwarded due bills in tho same manner. One has but to stand in the Washington Postcfflce for a few moments during tho pro gress of a Congressional session or a political campaign, to form an idea of the outrageous uses to whioh tho franking privilege are pat, and the impositions practiced upon the tax payers of tho country. Wo would have every member of tbe Cabinet, every Senator, every Congressman, every Postmaster, and every Govcrumont official, no matter what his posi tion, oompellcd to pay bis own postage, except on offioial matters. Let the linos be drawn closely, inclnding all publio officials, high and low. and the franking demoralization and abuse now prevailing will disappear. The ex penses of tue Poetoffice will be greatly de creased, and the revenues increased in almost a proportionate ratio. If General Creswell will but inaugurate this reform, he will win the warmest admiration and gratitude of his coun trymen. Let him but forcibly and vigorously press the matter upou Congress, and if mem bers endeavor to stave off or dodge the quea- tiou, nn overwhelming publio sentiment will compel them to toe tne mark. —A’.

Washington, November 1.—A fuller state ment of the cate of Thoriugton vs. Smyth and Hartley—A bill in equity lor enforcement of vendor's lien. Bmyth and Hartley pur chased Thorington’s land and gave a promis sory note for part pay. Tho transaction oc curred in 1864. Without modifying ciroum stances Thorington would be entitled to a de cree for the amount and interest The defense pleaded that only Confederate notes were cur rent The land was worth only three thousand dollars in real money. The contract price waa forty-five thousand dollars, thirty-five thousand dollars whereof was actually paid in Confederate notes and the note for the maining ten thousand was to be discharged in the same manner, and it is claimed on this that the vendor is entitled to no relief in the United States Court, which olaim was sus tained by tbe Court below and the case dis missed. The questions before the Supreme Court upon appeal are, first—Can a contract for the payment of Confederate notes, made during the late rebellion, between parties residing within the so-called Confederate States, be en forced at all in the Courts of the Uuited States? Second—Can evidence be received to prove that a promise expressed to be for the pay ment of any other than lawful dollars of the United States? Third—Does the evidence in the record establish the fact that the note for ten thousand dollars was to bo paid, by agree ment of the parties, in Confederate notes? The first question was answered affirma tively. The second question was answered affirmatively with the following remarks : We are clearly of opinion that such evidence must be received in respect to each contract in or der that justice may be done between the parties, and that the party entitled to bo paid in these Confederate dollars can only receive their actual value at tbe time and place of tbe contract in lawful money of the Uuited States. On the third question the Court says : We do not think it necessary to go into a detailed examination of tho evidence in the record. It is enough to say that it has left no doubt on our minds that the note for ten thou sand dollars to enforce payment of which suit was brought in the Circuit Court, was to be paid by agreement of the parties in Confede rate notes. The Sapreme Court decides that tbe issues of the Tennessee State Bauk previous to the war are good tenders for Tennessee State taxes. A mandamus was issued compelling coanty officers to receive those notes for State licenses. In the case of Sam’l B. Paul versus Virginia, indicted for issuing insurance policies with out State license, the Supremo Court affirmed tho deoision of the lower Court, holding that corporations are not oitizens in the meaning of the constitution, and that issuing insur ance poUniae is uo port of commerce. * Revenue to-day over $1,000,000.
