Our correspondent "Broker” makes a strong
case. He pleads pathetically for the poor
ipaw. So do we. Hence as to the end sought,
there is no issue between us. We differ only
as to the means.
Take the case he adduces. Under the ope
ration of the Usury laws, the broker, may not
charge exceeding seven per cent per annum.
This is disproportionate to the demand for
money. The poor man is refused the loan
asked for, beoaose the broker can use bis mo
ney more profitably thau by loaning it at
■even per cent. The necessities of the bor
rower will justify a higher per cent. He can
even pay fifteen or twenty, and thereby save
his house from the dutches of an inexorable
oredftor, who holds a mortgage over it He
therefore proposes to pay the broker three
per cent per month, upon good collateral,
This would be a profitable business for the
lender. Still bo refuses. Why? Because
out of ten customers be safely calculates that
one will sue him for usury ; and to make good
this loss, he demands five per cent, per month.
The necessities of the borrower knows no
limit He must have the money if he pays
ten. Hence the excess over a reasonable per
centum is forced upon him by a lav which it
is claimed was designed for his protection t
This is the way it works in uiuety-nine cases
in every hundred. Every intelligent broker
knows, every poor man feels this. Hence the
law should be repealed!

A* the Bun does not exchange with the £»a
new, we have no means of knowing whether
the above is a foqpry or not From the well
known hostility of that paper to Frfrideat
Grant, as well as the estAbitehed repots!too of
the filthy little abeet that reproduced the
shove, for lying and mletepreaeut alien,
doubt net but that the above It a garbled ex
tract j aad that the entire weaning of the writ-
lag was purposely changed by the omission o
the word "not,” in the sentenee, "Mrs. Gran 1
wee ml eeneerned," A*.
If this paragraph did ippe.tr In the 8un
here represented, ell wa lave to aay ie, that
Mr. Dana is a much more depraved end ma
lignant wen than we had given him credit for.
In that ease, he knew he was giving utterance
to a malicious and willful falsehood when he
wrote it; and as snob, we bar! it back
forth and cram the infuinons lie down bis
throat!
Ou the other hand, if the paragraph, as
above quoted, was thus altered by the Geor
gia editor who reproduced it, that it wholly
in keepiog with hi« infamous character. Any
man who, according to the testimony of those
who know him Ust, will swear a lie, will not
hesitate to add forgery to perjnry! We osu
expect nothing better from that rotten source;
and but for the fact that we are in ignoraaoe of
what it was the Son did aay, we should not
have noticed the matter at all.
It way be neoessaiy h w-ver, to explain to
the reader why it is that the Sun has ceased its
visits to this office. Some three or four weeks
ago, efforts were being msde by Fink and
Gould, of the New York gold gambling ring,
to divert attention from their own infamous
acts by attempts to implicate Gen. and Mrs.
Grant in the Wall Street bobble. The New
York Son was tbeir organ; and the editor ot
that paper seemed to eugage in the tervice of
his keepers with s test which ever character
ises a mere tool in the hands of J corrupt and

creditor U inexorable. He sees bis opportu
nity uud is iuolinod to press it. It the obliga

the hands of bis creditors at perhaps less than
half its valuation, Under these oiroumelanees,
bu applies to the money broker for relief.
That prrxni), having the extremo necessities

content with a fair equivalent for the use of

necessities to fleece him I Jost at this point
tbs law eteps iu. It establishes a rate of in*

Hence, upon good collateral, ho loans the

When Andrew Johnson was President he
was constantly talking about his polioy, but
the oonutry in the meantime was as constant
ly suffering from his mismanagement and
failure to colloot the rsvenne and otherwise
take care of the publio interests. But bow
different is the course of Gen. Grant. The
country has bot, to tba day, beard one word
from him about a policy. He has wasted no
breath on ibis fruitful theme of A J.’s per
sistent hallucinations. Burt he has one objoct
in view, nevertheless, and that is the coun
try’s interests, and whatever tends to protect
and advance these he ties to it, and from it he
evokes success. Without windy proclama
tions or bombastic speeches, he goes to work
to meat and master present emergencies by
thoee practical measures and prompt expedi
ents which have so eminently distinguished
bis administration. This is well. It attracts
publio attention and draws around him un
conscious indorsements even from those who-
•peak for the opposition. It is enongh to
know he meets the questions of the hour suc
cessfully.
Tbs Government goes on quietly and safely.
Whst mors can be asked ? Do you want him
to indorse every questionable scheme oi local
or Btate politics ? Do you want him to back
•vary unworthy aspirant for place sod power?
He will not do it. He will not be made the
scapegoat for tko sins of the Republican party
in 8tate affairs and local quarrels. It would
be well if tbs Btatss worked in harmony, but
the General Government must kssp on the
even tenor of its way, saehswing corruption
and avoiding dishonest, unscrupulous politi
cians, come from where they may; and judg
ing from the past it will do it Discretion and
good sense will govern, unifying all interests
in oommou with tbs Federal will and eommon

The Georgia Fair.
The BUte Fair of Georgia is to open at Ms
oon ou Tuesday. Invitations hats been sent
to leading men of the North to vieit the fair,
and many will be present. A large party
leaves Washington to day, by special train,
for that porpoae. It is an occasion when much
can be learned of the condition of the South,
ita resources, its wants, and Us prospects. The
Georgia papers generally have encouraged the
movement made by the managers of the fair,
and they noticed the friendly sentiments ex-
pressed in the correspondence of Invited
guests, who accept or decline. There is a
feeling that it Is good “for the people of the
different portions ot the Republic to get to
gether as much as possible, eo as to produce
harmony and uffitv of sentiment, so that the
material interests of the people may be bene-
fitted by stimulating industry, eficoureg ingen-
terprise, and tbe general development of the

There is* in Now York city, an iniquitous
nest of gold and stock gamblers, whereof one
Jay Gould and an ex-peddler of tbe nawo of
Fisk, Jr., are the head centres. The first naino
is of doubtful feme j .the second began his ca
reer as a Razor Strop man, shoddy peddler,
jack knife dealer, or something of the kind,
aud from thenoe glided into the irregular hap
hazard transactions of tbe'gold pool, and sud
denly, and wholly unexpected to himself, he
becomes the temporary master of millions.
He is also the hero of one or more uewipaper
libel suits ; and to tbe last circumstance more
perhaps than to anything elso. he owes bis
present notoriety. Associated with them are
quite a number of lesser lights, who entered
the late conspiracy to double their fortunes by
an insidious attack upon the credit of the
Nation. Tbe resnlt is already known (o the
publio; how Presideut Graut broke up tbs
hellish conspiracy by ordering tbe sale of Gov
ernment gold ; how, like Mordecai, the con
spirators were hauged upon the gibbet they
had erected for others ; and bow *bey have
since esHayed to divert attention ti
damning infamy of tbeir ohii acts l y y oking
to implicate tbe President and certain of his
Cabinet Ministers in this ehamsless amt disre
putable plot.
Tbe fads have all beep laid befuro the Dub
lin. Every reader of tbe newspaper pr* « i
the United States is familiar with them; an
since the publication of Gen. Grant's letfor n
mau, North or South, outside of this iniqn
tons Wall street gold ring, Las been pre
pared to liaten, with any degree of patience,
totbos* vile calumnies which wduld couple
the nnme of the Preeident with a transaction
so foreign to his nature, and wbioh his very
soul instinctively abhors. But, unscrupulous
and undacioQa to the last ; smarting under
their defeat; chagrined at finding themselves
tbe victims of their own transparent villainy
and, in a fit of desperation, such as is expe
rienced only by fallen gamblers, they have
actually invaded the sanctity of the President’i
family circle, and seek to implicate a pure-
minded aod unsuspecting woman (whose very
name should be held sacred from profanation
oven by men so abandoned to integrity,) in
tbeir disreputable financial plots. Yea, even
tbe name of Mrs. Grant has been associated
with that of Corbin—a weak, indiscreet, and
unfortunate, but withal doubtless an honest
man-all for the porpose of raising a dust
wherein to hide the lower depths of their own
infamy.
This last slander is in perfect keeping with
the general character of the men who invest
ed and gave it publicity. It lx quite needless
to say that no honest man, outside of a Luna
tic Asylum, can be mads to believe it. It
needs no very serious refutation at our bands.
It is one of those diabolical fabrications that
should not be dignified even by a denial. It
will fell still-born from its source; and will,
in th# end, tend only to inorsaee the odium of
this infamous theiviog Wall street gold Ring.
Contempt is said to have tbe property of de
scending, but it oan never reach certain New
York editors (snob as he of the 8nn), who
have thus prostituted themselves to men like
Fisk and Gould. They may enjoy the wages
of their shame with Impuuity, since tlu-y have
placed themselves wholly beyond the recogni
tion even of contumely; but if there be any
thing which would joetiiy measures looking to
tbe suppression of such publio nuisances
as sometimes crop out in the honor*! profes
sion of journalism, as practiced in this coun
try, the oase under review fe unques-
tionably one in point. Snch hellish libels
upon the personal character of (he Chief Nfeg-
fetrate of the nation, and so oh fiendish slan
ders direct cd at his private family
circle are without parallel in aay oiviUsed
country; and they ate aH tba wont lor

ws beg pardon) who have publicly cut them

and who eland before the publio In the atti

transaction from a Heathen standpoint, ure

senorrme agriculture sduth.
The agricultural advantages offered by the
South are little mderstood. Some one there
has lately conceived the idea that six acres of
arable fend will produce as much as seventy-
two acres, as oommonly plan ted and managed.
Possessed with this idea, ho intelligently and
carefully manured his prospective!six acres.
The average yield of cotton on Georg’ * *
is about oue-quarter of a bale of In
acre, or a bale to every four acres. The Al
bany, Ga., News says that be will oome pretty
near the aocompiishmeuL His lands were
richly impregnated with the best manure, aud
carefully, deeply and minutely cultivated and
kept in the best order, and the result is that,
notwithstanding the severe dronth which in
terfered materially with the experiment,
a splendid crop. He expects, with pres
ent indications, to gather oevenleeu bales of
500 pounds each, from the six acres planted.
This produot will be worth, if only of ordina
ry qaality, 19,125; but, as the manure aud
onrefnl cultivation will bare made the
staple of usual length and fineness,
is estimated that it will sell for 30 cents
per pound, or 92,475 for tbe whole, making
the richest yield of six sores ever witnessed in
cotton culture in the South. ,
These figures develop wbat scientific agri
culture oan acoompUsb in tbe soils upon which
uatare ha* bestowed her highest and most
productive endowment#. Suppose this gene
ral carefulness and sagaoity was brought to
bear upon all our soils, and wo shall have a
corresponding growth of farming produots.—
The nroduciivenose of Southern ootton lands
within tho ootton belt, have never yet been
thoroughly and comprehensively tried, in the
mass. But tbe steady increase of manafaotar-
iog industry throughout the South is bringing
nearer and nearer that agricultural accom
plishment. In no part of tbe United States
are manufactures so abundantly and signifi
cantly augmenting as in all parts of the South.
These, as all experience, teaches, are the
forerunners of scientific agriculture. A* they
increase we shall expeot io *ee an enlarge
ment and invigoration ,of agricultural pro
cesses.

THU ADVANTAGES of those Spectacles over ell
others ore:
1. They css be went with perfect e«ee
for any length of time at one sitting, giving astonish
ing clearness of vision, by candle or any other artifi
cial light, comfort to the spectacle-wearer hitherto un
known.
9. How to select Glosses. It requires
professional guidance even when a good article Is of
fered. Dr. Bernhardt not only has the best Glasses
that can be found in the market, bnt carefully exam
ines the eyes, and gives indispensable advice as to the
proper selection of them.
3. When the eyes oehe or pain through
the action of a bright light, such as is reflected from
the snow, sunny weather, white peper, and iu reading,
writing or sewing, or vivid colored bodies; theso
lenses, by softening the rays, effect a most agreeable
sensation and give great relief.
4. These Spectstclcs are eetemtittcally ad
justed to every case of defective sight with unerring
accuracy, whether arising from age, strain, <
or premature decay, by Morris Bernhardt <
end exact principle, entirely his Own, which has seldom
flailed to be correct
5. After several years of public practice,
adjusting spectacles to patients under every aspect ol
defective vision, ss well as experience ln an extensive,
long-established business in his Optical Stores, both
hers and in Europe, M. Bernhardt considers it a suffi
cient guarantee of his ability to supply such glessee ss
arb best calculated for the assistance of imperfect
sight.
Dernhardt, to algaallse himself
from the host of pretenders in his profession, with
pride submits for inspection, copies of testimonials bs
has received from medical gentlemen of the most un
questionable respectability and talent In America;
also, a number of oertifloates from well known gentle
men of distinction wbo have used bis apectaclea—the
originals of all which he will be happy tq show to
those who may request It. The nee of any of the fol
lowing names or certificates hereunto affixed, without
an actual possession of the some, would be e forgery,
e capital offence, punishable by Ststo Imprisonment.
