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 Hence the law should be repealed!

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.

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 nD8crapnloas men who pay well!

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 weal — Washington 'Republican. 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 rcuouroes of tha country .

Had- AW IHFAM0TT8 9TBATAOKM — DZSPSBATION - OEK KBAL AMO MILS. OKAVT. 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.

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.

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.
