ATLANTA, QEOltGIA.
Wednesday Morrttng, May I, 1867.
Of Nano mind.
A fiegvQ in Jefferson, Texas, mimed Jolm
Madden, linving lieen urged liy the rndirnlH to
run for the legislature, rejects the propo»Ulon
in n long letter which he publishes in the
Jmii/rcut#, ot the 16lh'inst. He says that nl
though a “very colored man," he resents the
Insinuation that he is in any way connected with
the radical party, or in the least unsound on
"The. Lost Cause" question. Ills views are too
good to be lost, so wo qnoto them irmn his
letter:
Uenred in South Carolina, brought np in the
Slate right's school of politics, and being always
orthodox on the "oA utJd" secession question, 1
rushed to arms At the first sound ol the “tocsin
ot war," and never yielded until our cause was
hopeless and both of
timeless aud both of our distinguished leaders
h id surrendered. I then made houorable terms
with our conquerors ; siuco then 1 have been an
obedient and loyal citizen ot the United States,
bending all my energies towards “reconstruc
tion.” The members of Ector's brigtulo will all
bear me testimony that I performed yeoman
service during the whole war. It is true I was
not actually engaged iu any battle, but by cool-
uoss aud 'presence of mind, ("in the wagon
ad
train,”) I prevented the mules and quartermasters
from stampeding on several trying occasions. I
also served a campaign under the celebrated
Hen. Smith, hut it Wits previous to his going into
tho "commission business.” While I do hot
boast ol my valor, or dwell on what I’ve done,
I only mention these circumstances to show Hint
I, too, am disfranchised on account of my par
ticipation In the rebellion, besides bciug, obnox
ious somewhat under the 13th exception, or tho
|20,000 clause. So I, In common with mauy
ether leading tnen, can neither vote nor hold
office. 1, therefore, thank those who, being
aclunted by lriendly motives, profiered mo their
support, but I respcctluUy declinerilte honor.
Henry Stanberry.
A Washington correspondent of the Chicago
Tribune has the following sketch of the Attorney
Goneral oi the United States:
"Henry Stanberry, whom the Senate declined
to raise to the Supreme Bench, is a man who
seems to have the respect of his strongest poli
tical foes, and tho good will of all with whom
he ooarcs in ooutoct. Tall, very spare, dressed
in the soberest black, his cranc-ltko neck enclosed
in a high black stock, with a long profile and a
broader face than you expect, the Attorney Gen
eral is the most unlquo and old-fashioned of geu-
tlemen. Seeing him you must think of times a
hundred years gone, or of men who figure in the
"ill
delightful exaggerations of Dickens. He looks
out at you with geutle blue eyes, and speaks to
you in a tone of rarest courtesy. He is not
wanting in force or decision, but there is nothing
aggressive or revolutionary in anything he says
or does. He may bclieye Congress wrong in its
judgment and its action respecting the political
situation, but the President will not thwart the
execution of the Military Bill or any other duly
enacted law if he tollows the advice of his legal
counselor.”
Presto—011X1(00.“—In his speech at Rich
mond, Virginia, Senator Wilson "advised the
disfranchised classes that by speaking and work
ing for the national policy they would show
their countrymen that the disabilities imposed
upon them ought to bo removed, and a country
that had proved its generosity would not forget
them.”
InBte&d of “national policy,’’ the Senator
meant, of course, the policy of the Northern
Jacobin party. It appears, tbereiore, that dis
franchisement ol Southern white men is not
insisted upon by that party as a punishment for
rebellion, but as a penalty for not voting the
radical ticket I Tho moment a Southern rebe)
turns a political eomersault and agrees to voto
tho radical ticket, all bis sins are forgiven, and
his garments, previously died in blood, are made
white as snow I
Destruction of Sheep by Doos.—The March
report of the Commissioner of Agriculture dwells
upon the ravages committed by dogs among
sheep in the United States. In 18C6 five hun
dred thousand sheep were killed by dogs, and
their value was $2,000,000. The number in
jured was three hundred thousand, and the loss
is estimated at $000,000. Tho number of dogs
in the country is computed at five millions, their
annual expense ten dollars per head, and the
sum total of their subsistence fifty millions of
dollars—an immense sum to bestow upon a class
ot animals, tho moat of which are worthless,
and many of them causing great mischief to
farmers.

*• .* *: , * *
The ifetnodisi of New York says lie regrets
to perceive that the land loved by the editor of
United States,
this magazine is not the whole
but only a rather troublesome section of it. Our
contemporary wrote a kind letter, proposing an
exchange; wo cordially accepted his ofler. We
candidly confess that wo have a great liking for
our Methodist brethren. They made such splen-
' d
did rebels! Why a rebel Methodist lnu
more fear in him than a wild Irishman from
Tipperary. From this attack upon us, we Judge
that the Northern Methodists belong also to the
Church militant. However, as opening fire un
der Hag ot truce, wns so universally reprobated
by both sides we rather incline 16 think twit our
worthy brother belonged to the “ Homo Guards,”
and not to the army in the field.
A lady, who had written a really valuable
book, once told us that an unfavorable criticism
of her book would be more acceptable tlmn the
usual stereotyped phrases ot commendation,
which proved that the critic Imd not even cut
the pages of the book he professed to review.
It is plain to us that our excellent contempo
rary had not read our Magazine. For although
we are exceedingly national, yet we are not
aware of manifesting any special partiality for
Massachusetts; so that we cannot be justly ac
cused of unduly loving “ tiie troublesomo section
of the United States.”
The Church Militant—A religious paper
published in New York says: “ The robust, sin
ewy piety of our ancestors, is to a grert degree
superceded by a passion for show and a thirst
lor sensuous excitement. Weare infatuated with
the glitter and glare of pompous demonstrations.
Tho Church, which was intended as the home
of weary souls, the nurse of manly virtue, the
gathering-spot lor tho communiou oi saints, is
converted into a scene tor aesthetic display. Sort,
seductive appeals to the imagination, are made
of more account than masculine reasonings on
righteousness, temperance, and judgment to
come.”
Moreover, we are getting old and wo have been
afflicted with rheumatism a long time; which
affliction rebel campaigning for four years did
not much improve. We have not, therefore, the
astonishing activity of some ol our friends in
Dixie, and cannot, then, rnnke such neat somer
saults ns they, nor can we play supple-jacks so
well. Our old leaders in secession, our fire-eat
ers, our Yankce-haters, have thrown n somer
sault, and are now “ loynl lengucre” and “ per
secuted Union men.” Our old negro traders,
that despised class of dealers in “flesh and
blood,” have become philanthropists, and friends
of the “man and brother." The most cruel and
tyrannical masters are these, who have always
regarded slavery as a sin and wished for its abo
lition. Tho Sherman Bill lias developed ns
much activity in taking the back track, ns did
Bill Sherman when ho Was sweeping' through
Georgia and the two Carolinas.
Owing to tho rheumatism aforesaid, we rnovo
slowly and painfully, but "with the boat inten
tions iu the world ”—wondering all the while at
the agility of our more supple neighbors.' There
id tjo use for any circus to come $outh, We
have moil so agile that the most 'expert rfmii in
the ring would feel ashamed of his clumsy at
tempts at “ground nnd lofty tumblings" after
witnessing their wonderful performances.
Ono of the things, which we nrc too stiff and
i do, is
A Sad Suicide.—'The Fishkill Standard
states that the oldest daughter of G. B. Becbee,
editor of the Banner of Liberty, formerly of
Middletown, Orange county, but now published
in New York, committed suicido on Saturday,
by shooting herself with a pistol. She had
been engaged to be married to a young man,
but her lather placed her in a lunatic asylum to
break up the match. The officersot the asylum,
finding she was not insane, let her go home.
She was to take charge of a school on Monday,
but learning of tho marriage of the gentleman
to whom she had been engaged, deliberately
shot herself.
A Texas Marriage.—A Texas paper tells ol
a young couple who eloped on horseback, accom
panied by a clergyman who was to marry them.
The lady’s father gave chase, aud was overtaking
the party when the maiden called ont to her
clerical triend, “ Can't you marry us as we run ?"
The Idea took, and he commenced the ritual,
and just as the bride’s fattier clutched her bridle
rein the clergyman pronounced the lovers mau
and wife. The father was so pleased with the
dashing action that, as tlio story goes, ho gave
them his blessing. J _
-The amount of
Rhode Island Enterprise.
capital invested In Rhode Island manufacturing
enterprise, is about $33,000,000, which yields an
annual product of $103,000,000. Every second
of time in the working year turns out nearly ten
yards of cotton cloth, nine yards of calico, and
one yard of woolen cloth, one dozen of shoe and
corset lacings, one yard worsted braid, and a
spool of thread; a horse shoe is made every
four seconds, and a gross of screws in about the
same time.
Prices in England.—A handsome suit of
clothes in London costs from $15 to $2fi. A
man may dross well enough, hat and boots in
cluded,-for £3 J5s., say $18. An Englishman
adds the duties, but he cannot figure up the cost
in America. So a lady buys an elegant silk'
drees for from $5 to $15, and cannot amount for
the prices she hears her American friends talk
about.
The Wheat Prospect in California.—
T he San Francisco Times, of the 27th ultimo,
carefully considers the chances of a good wheat
crop, and concludes that “ California will gather
at least an average harvest the present season, in-
too rheumatic to do, is to toss a Homersault and
turn our backs on this dear old land which gave
us birth.
VVe will tell our esteemed cotemporary what
the “ loyal North used to think of renegades,
uye and what the really noble men and women
there think of thorn yet. When John Adams
went to England after our independence had been
gained, George III jested with him one day
upon his being under French iullucnee. His no
ble reply was, " I must avow to your Majesty
that I hate no attachment but mu own country.”—
The King answered quickly, ‘‘an honest man
will necer have any other.”
It is well known that the great painter, Benja
min West, of Pennsylvania, went to England
before the American rebellion. The kind patron
age of the King and his business relations in
duced him to remain in London after the war
broke out. One day some courtiers who were
jealous of West’s influence with the King,spoke
ot a defeat of the Americans while West was hi
tho royal presence, hoping that his sorrow thereat
would offend the Monnrcl
end the Monarch. West perceiving
their object, said, frankly to George, “ I am a
loyal ami grateful subjeot to my King, but I can
never rejoice at any misfortunes which befall
my native land.” The King cordially replied,
“ a noble answer Mr. West, and I assure you that
no man teillever fall in my estimation who lores his
native land." A kingly speech, worthy of the
monarch of a great nation! We ore not so sec
tional as our worthy cotemporary thinks, for we
believe that there are millions ot men in the
loyal North, who respond to the grand sent!
ment of George III, and who have as much re-
' - ‘ Be -
spect for tho Southerner, who stands in his lot
are stultifying themselves by insincere declara
tions and dishonest professions.
Make Him Useful.—The New York Courier,
which by the way is a live paper, makes the
following suggestion:
The possession ot Jefferson Davis by the gov
ernment appears to he very awkward just now.
He won’t die; hewn
on’t apply to the President
for release on bail; the attempts to connect him
with tiie assassination of Lincoln have failed ;
Chase won’t try him—he is the white elephant
drawn by Uncle Sam in a raffle. Under the cir
cumstances we should put him to use. During
his administration of the War Department, the
Indians were under his jurisdiction, and lie kept
them hi order. Now Indian aflairs are in a
muss. 8uppose the Indian Bureau be transferred
to Fortress Monroe, and put in Jeff’s charge. It
would amuse him, and might benefit us. At all
eveuts it could do us no hurm; for we defy his
malice, if he have any toward the government
del
to make a worse muddle in Indian aflairs than
we have now.
TnE Foolkiller Wanted.—An exchange
says the pack of tools in New York, called the
“Association for the Suppression of Cruelty to
Animals,” who go around blowing tho noses of
dogs with cambric handkerchiefs, and putting
cologne-water under the tails of horses, have
lately pitched into the Israelites ot that city for
slaughtering animals after tho manner prescribed
by the Mosaic law.
Greeley and Wred.—These two distin
guished journalists have been engaged in a con
troversy for several weeks in which they have
told sortie : ufee things of each other. Greeley
however lias caved. In his last he says:
“With so impudent and unprincipled a juggler,
who never hesitates to substitute a statement that
suits him for oue that lie finds it difficult to deal
with, I propose to have no further controversy*
Pocket Pistole—An exchange soys a lady
fainted a few days since in tho cars. A medical
gentleman present who went to her relief, ex
claimed : “ Has any gentleman a flask of wUUky
or brandy i ’’ Over thirty pocket pistols flashed
in the air at once.
