Wednesday Morning, May 8, 188/.
Atlanta Medical College.
We were preeenk yeetcnlay within this bond-
»ome college edifice, at the opening locturos, be
fore the cl.va now eUcnding the regular course,
and were gratified, as well as edlfiod thereby.—
The building itself hiu£ been thoroughly renova
ted, while the lecture rooms, or those ot them
which we visited, presented quite a noat and
comfortable appearance. It was our good for
tune, on the occasion of our visit, to hear the
several lectures of three ol the able Professors
of this institution, to-wit: D&.H. V. M. Miuar,
Dr. D. 0. O’Kwsfk, and Dr. A. Means. It will
be the fault of the class, It under the teachings of
then, and we may add, the other proleeeors of
this medical iusUtutiou, they do not acquire such
knowledge of the science and art ot medicine
and surgery as to constitute themselves useful
end eminent in their professional career. The
Faculty, as it is now composed, embraces tho
names of gentlemen of the modical profession,
who are widely known and have attained emi
nence in tho profession. We append the follow
ing list for tho information of those abroad who
are engaged in medical studies, and who may,
either now or at somo future course, desire to
avail themselves of the tcachlugs of so able a
body of professional gentlemen. It will compare
most favorably with that of any similar institu
tion in the 8on'.h:
A. IIkaxs, M. D., Profc-sor of Medical and General
Chemistry.
D. C. O’Kasrx, M. D., Professor of Theory end Prac
tice of Medicine.
W. F. Wn>YN<iRn.i>o>, M. D., Professor of Principles
snd Practice of Snidery.
H. V. M. Mru.xn, M. D., Professor of Obstetrics and
Diseases of Women and Children.
Kbik Hillybr. M. D., Profcsaor of llio Instltnles of
Medicine.
8. H. Stout, M. D., Professor of Anatomy.
J. F. AusXAXnan, M. D., Profcsaor of Surgical and
Pathological Anatomy.
J. G. Wkstxohki.and, M. D„ Professor of Matorla
Medics and Therapeutics.
W. S. Amrreuoso, M. D., Demonstrator of Anatomy.
N. D'Alviuxt, M. D., Curator.
The college, we arc assured, is lurnisbcd in its
every department with apparatus and ail other
appliances required in au institution of its char
acter ior tho thorough iustructiou of the students.
It opens again with every prospect of success.—
Every obstacle to its future usefulness has been
removed. It has now a united, and skillful
faculty, whoso labors to promote the.interests
of tho institution will be zealous, and whose ca
pacity to import knowledge admits of no dis
pute. The class now in attendance, under ail
the circumstances, is most encouraging. As
surances are given that it will bo largely increas
ed in a lew days. As it is, tho prospect is good,
ami we do not hesitate the prediction that its lu-
ture will tic one o( unparalleled success in the
South.
The Propagandist*.
So far,wherever Scuuior Wilson has addressed
a Southern audience, wo bclievo he lias been
treated with resect, and if lie started from his
home among the inhospitable hills of Now Eng
land with any other expectation, he lias been
disappointed. Iiis route is over historic ground,
filled with tlie dust ol Union and Confederate
soldiers. He knows best, of course, for what
purpose ho visits this sectiou—the motives which
iuduced him to embark upon tho mission, and
the objects lie seeks to gain by its prosecution.—
The Boston Pont, an influential journal published
in his own State,says ot him and of those who sent
him:
" Mr. Wilson is not willing llmt there should
be o cordial understanding aud friendly feeling
between the freedmen and their late masters.—
He deprecates ouch a state of things. Ho wants
the Southern blacks to follow the lead ol strolling
wmte ueigHDors, with whom their future fortunes
are cast. What the Southern people need is
bread, thrift, uiul exemption from political agita
tion, aud tho Radical Propaganda at Washing
ton sends them Wilson with his conceited ha
rangues, which are barren as tho east wind.”
Tlie Hepubllcau Party.
A New York journal says the causes that are
“disintegrating that heterogeneous compound
known ns the Republican party, are at work
all over the country. But the procesa is slow.
When tho present financial difficulties reach
their flight, tho rupture will be thorough and
’ complete. It will be only fit and proper. The
Republican party had a mission, and fulfilled it.
There is no longer any occasion for it, and it
will pass off the stage of action. Tho people
have submitted to a deal of tyranny during tlie
last few years, bccauso they thought it necessary
in order to preserve the Union from being tom
asunder. Now that danger is past, they see no
need for submission to unduo restraint. Those
who suppose them from their recent acts, in
different to personal freedom, labor under a
great mistake. Tho freest nations of old had
their dictators in times of emergency; but when
the danger was past, tho dictator was obliged to
surrender his extraordinary powers. So with
the American people. Tho day of absolute
power in the hands of n few is passing awny.”
Kx-.TIayor Monroe.
Ex-Mayor Monroo, while in Washington a lew
days ago, asserted that he was furnished with no
reason for his removal from tho Mayoralty by
General Sheridan, and declares that lie proposed
to the military authorities to aid them in execu
ting tho laws of Congress, and in.carrying out
the details of tho reconstruction act. He adds
tliattlms far about eight thousand persons have
been registered in New Orleans, hut says that
with tlie present registry tho colored men will
carry tlie city by several thousand, and elect
men of their own race to the municipal offices.
\ Might Mlstako.
The New York Courier is mistaken in refer
ring to Gen. Sickels as having imprisoned tlie
Savannah editor who dates his articles from the
Chatham jail, (ieneral Sickcls lias not ventured
quite that far yet, and it is not likely Unit he will.
The Suvuinmii man had Ids personal liberty cir
cumscrilied, wo believe, through the operations
of a civil court, on a charge of libel, or some
thing of that sort; ami before General Sickcls
was placed in command ol tlie District.
, enuai, A well de
fined difference in stature, in color, in tempera
ment, lu phy»lcal or muscular power, and in
mental fecultles, characterize the human family;
and the consequence of this inequality is the ex
istence of subserviency or subordination In somo
one or more of its varied forms.
Two men perfectly equal in every respect can
never be in sutyectlon ono to tho other; but let
one have superiority of mind or body, and the
other will be subject to his control exactly in pro
portion to the inequality.
We sue endowed with “certain inalienable
rights,” ocoording to circumstances. We are
not entitled to life, liberty, and tho pursuit of
happiness, if wo attempt to enjoy those privileges
through tho destruction.of the life, liberty, and
happiness of otliora. Wo are not entitled to liberty
if we have not knowledge or industry to take
care of ourselves; for the reason that imbecility
renders us a charge to others, giving them the
right to control us.
Thus it is plain such rights are conditional.—
“He that doth not work neither shall he eat.” '
We arrest tho murderer and hang him; we
put the lunatic in confinement; aud wo govern
our children diving minority. Buch is tho con
dition of mankind, and subordination is tho con
sequence ; and this can never bo altered except
by some radical change in tho law of nature.—
This applies to ail races, without regard to color.
There is nothing but an equal distribution of
wisdom and physical power, combinod with a
uniformity of circumstances, that can place men
on an equality; and nothing short ot this can
ever prevent subserviency.
In a world like ours, greatly diversified in soil,
in climate, and in alt that is useful or injurious
to man, the inhabitants will necessarily be great
ly varied, in their physical proportions and con
stitutional temperaments, and to tho samo extent
diversified mentally and morally.
Knowledge is power—somo possess it—others
do not Monoy is power—somo possess it—oth
ers do not. And so also of industry, economy,
and frugality -some possess these virtues—others
do not; hence we seo tho causes which have
led to the establishment ol government, or somo
governing power to prevent the strong from op-
pressing tho weak, or to keep tho indolent and
vicious from wastiug and devouring tho sub
stance ol tlie provident and good.
Legislation can do much for tho amelioration
of inequalities; but tho common drudgeries of
life, requiring no mental eflort, wifi in most cases
bo performed by men of uncultivated or inferior
intellects, whilst men of enlarged powers of
mind will guide and direct tho various pursuits
of fife to a successful issue.
The many difficulties which present themselves
when philanthropy attempts its work of amelior
ation, wifi over be a source of disappointment to
visionary reformers. Tho truly enlightened
statesman and philanthropist, unbiased by the
“wild hunt” for office, will view moral, social
aud political evils, us resulting from tlie natural
inequalities of man; and will study to apply tho
corrective of just and equal laws, without in
dulging the vain hope of legislating men equal,
Tho self-evident fact that nil are not created equal
gave rise to the suggestion of Jefferson, in favor
ol' "a wise and frugal government which shall
restrain men from injuring ono another; Bhall
leave thorn otherwise free to regulate their own
pursuits of industry and improvement, and shall
not take from the mouth of lnbor the bread it bos
earned." To livo and let live, appeared to lie
tlie governing principle of Thomas Jefferson.
This principle properly understood reveals to us
tho true secret of good government, anil of hu
man happiness. Wc observe it at table, when
seated to partako our usual meals. Wo cat and
let eat. In fact, wc help our tablo companions
to the choicest and best dishes sot JbdqMUUS,.&ad
dainties for our own gratification—leaving others
to feed upon crumbs and crusts. The rules of
politeness, thus carefully observed, are essential
to human happiness; nnd if right at table in par
taking our customary meals, why not in tlie nc
quisitlon and enjoyment of wealth ?
The surface of our world is a wide spread ta
ble, furnished with all tlio means to sustain file,
yet requiring labor to convert them to our use
and here, true politcueas, if nothing else, should
prompt every member of Boclety to share, ac
cording to his ability, in tlie toil of body or mind
necessary to support fife; nnd to refrain from
seizing the best dishes on tlie world’s tablo.
And here, in tills connection it may bo re
marked ; if politicians would take as much pains
to enlighten tho people, as they do to thorn
we would see no more of bad government—of
wars and desolations; or if ineu in power would
take ns much pains to restore peace and harmony
to tho people os they do to engender sectional
and partisan animosities amongst them, or as
they do to use them as mero voting machines,
we would soon see tho last of military rule, and
the rc-cstabiislimeiit of good government.
J. A. Stewart.
Attorney General Ntau berry.
As tho telegraph has given us a faint and dim
outline of Mr. Stanberry’s courso of argument
before tlie Supreme Court on Monday, in the case
of tho Georgia and Mississippi injunctions, tho
following in reference to his views prior to the
argument may not bo unluterestiug. Wo find it
among tho Washington correspondence oi the
Charleston Courier :
When Mr. Slanberry’s official position first re
quired his attention to these applications for in
junctions, lie wns inclined by Ids former and po
litical predilections to favor them, or, at least,
against any opposition to them. It is now a
known fact that ho had intended to resign iiis
office rather than resist the injunction, on tlie
merits of tlie question. Upon deliberation, how
ever, he found that the applications were techni
cally objectionable und would not ho sustained;
and tlie President and the Cabinet concurred
with him in this view. Mr. Stnnbcrry, therefore,
stated last Tuesday, that lie opposed the motion
to file ns a lawyer, and not as a politician. Were
the question upon the Military Acts, he would
ho on tlie side of the plaintills.
following tetulblo article on tho importance of
tho Supreme Court as a department of tho gov-
Ain and Comfort.—It is stated that among
other legal |awilions taken by the Attorney Gen.
era I in interpreting the disqualifications, it is as-
•uuiod that the words “giving aid uni comfort
to tlie enemies ol tlie United States,” when they
occur in the Constitution, nnd consequently in
auy Act of Congress, have no meaning whatever
where the enemies are rebels, but apply exclu
sively to foreign wars, and to alien public ene
mies. Ho says every authority, English and
American, since tho original words were first
used in the ancient statute of the twenty-flflli
year of Edward HI.
Tuk Late Eak TuquAKE.—The recent earth
quake in Missouri was more severe at Oregon,
Holt county, than at any other place. Several
chimneys toppled over, goods fell from shelves,
and plastering was jarred down. The Circuit
Court was in session at the lime, but witnesses,
j ary men, lawyers and everybody, became demor
alized, aud a stampede was tlie consequence.—
Borne fell down stairs, while others were unable
to got down at all. One man jumped out of a
second-story window, but came off unhurt.
Maximilian.—It ia said that alter Marshal
Bazine made a speech to the Mexican notables,
announcing the withdrawal of the French army,
the Euiperor Maximilian exclaimed with vehe
mence: “They are placing me between dis
grace and death—my selection is made.” Uij-
/ptlutmte PtjnoqJ
Defining iiis Position.—The “ Fat Contrib
utor," while at Nashville, recently, was request
ed to define ids position on polities, which he
did in a letter to “ John Happy,” of the Nash
ville Banner, as lollows:
“ I am aware of tlie necessity of knowing just
where a man stauds iti these times which try
men’s soles—ns well as the upper leather. To
begin with, I am an old Henry Clay Whig, of
the Polk School. I believed In tlie Hard Cider
Platiorin of 18-19, during which l cast a some
what colored vote for Jackson. I voted against
llio assassination of Lincoln. I favored the
Maine Law until they fired on our ling, together
...-.• i. « fS
with our flug-stoucs, when I went in for a vigor
ous prosecution of peace. I am in favor of wo
man s rights, If it is a good looking woman and
she write* to me. 1 don’t know much about tlie
Monroe Doctrine, and as for horse doctoring, I
don’t know anything at all. I wouldn’t vote to
obllgo a Mormon to have more than one wife,
and am opposed to introducing cholera into tlie
territories. I go in for a tax on waterfalls, and
am willing to allow chignons representation in
Congress on the basis ol imputation. Finally, I
am in favor of nllnwing the negro to vote in the
Houtli—it is tiic only way to make treason odor-
out."
It seems to startle somo minds very much that
on application should bo made to too Supreme
Court in so Important a subject aa that which is
now occupying its attention, to-wlt: tho opera
tion of tho Military Reconstruction bill. Thore
ore many good, honest citizens who have never
looked further into tho construction of our gov
ernment than to Imagine that court* are mere
machines for settling disputes about dollars and
cents between litigious individuals, and who have
never dreamed that the Bupremo Court of the
United States is a department of tho government,
au essential component port of that government,
independent of Congress and President, often
times as powerful as either or both. We shall
uot undertake to express an opinion on tho ques
tion whether that court has jurisdiction in the
present cose. Wo but seise tlie opportunity to
direct attention to the important position occu
pied by this court in tho groat system of Ameri
can republican institutions. Not long ago wo were
in a minority, and somewhat despised withal, for
teaching the doctrine that the government was not
tho administration. Tho accession to adminis
trative powor of Mr. Johnson fortunately, disa
bused the minds of ardent upholders oi that
doctrine, who. so long as tho President was their
man, admitted no other power than his in the
government. Next we have been taught the
supremacy of Congress, and there are doubtless
not a fow anxious and ardent people in the
country who really beliove, what they earnestly
desire to be true, that all the power of the govern
ment ol tlie United States is lodged in the two
Houses of Congress. If one of tho houses should
be turned against them they would possibly find
reason for reposing faith in the other house as
the solo custodian of national force. Tlie con
stitution is an old paper, well worth reading
over in these days. It ought to be taught In the
common schools, without note or comment. It
is a simple instrument cosily understood. It es
tablishes tlie Supreme Court of the United States,
aiffi gives it powers which are not to be disputed.
Ho is as grent a traitor who resists tho mandates
of that court as ho who resists a law of Congress,
or a proclamation of the President It is time
to think of this. Perhaps before long the educa
tion of passing events will teach the people not
to reposo their faith in President, Congress or
court as the government, but to understand the
boauty and value of the sublime combination,
State aa well aa Federal, which composes the
popular and free government we once cherished
and defended.
tho reconstruction acta, proper and supplement

Freedmen vs. Free Speech.—Henry Gwinn,
of Savannah, a colored man, formerly a slave,
delivered an nddress from the steps ol the City
Hall on yoslerdny. Ho had a large audience,
which comprised many of our best citizens, hut
was chiefly composed of colored peoplo, to whom
he gave much sensible and timely advice. His
speech evinced strong common sense, and a
wonderful memory, and contained much that
was striking and most commendable. He is op
posed to arraying his race against the whites,
and to white pressure from abroad to effect that
object He criticised the Loyal Georgian (Which
had denounced him as a copperhead,) and an
nounced himself the friend of the white man as
well as tlie colored man.
His reference to the Loyal Georgian caused
great indignation, and such threats oi violence
that a guard was required to escort him to the
depot.—Augusta Press, May 4<A.
Methodist Episcopal Church Convention
at Rome.—Tho Courier, of tho 7th, says:
This association of preachers and laymen
closed their labors on Saturday. The meeting
was exceedingly interesting from beginning to
end, and we have no doubt will redound largely
to the interests of that church, and the general
interests of Christianity in this section of coun
try. By this meeting the experiment of Lay
Delegations has been satisfactorily and success
fully inaugurated. Bishop McTyfcro arrived on
Friday night—having been delayed by an acci
dent on the way—and presided during tho re
mainder of the meeting—and by his peculiar
faculty of apprehending the points of practical
interest, giving a profitable turn to the discus
sions.
The Qrowino Crops.—>The Quitman Banner
speaks very favorably of the growing crops in
its section, but adds;
Whilst wo aro pained to record tlie fact that a
number of our most extensive planters are neg-

The Opinion of the A
Tho opinion ot tho Attorney General upon
I they
district commanders—all of whom will doubt-
loss cheerfully acquiesce in them, excepting, per
haps, Sheridan, in tho Louisiana district. He
seems determined to have Ills own way in every
thing, and wore it not for tho positive command
of Genoral Grant, ho would, ere this, bavo com
pletely demolished every vestige of civil author
ise, if, indeed, such a
Fty in Louisiana and Toxas,
thing as civil authority can now bo said to exist
anywhere in the South.
Another letter says:
The instructions of tho Attorney General to
tho military commandore in regard to the regis
tration of voters will beminnte and deflnito, and,
on the wholo, liberal enough to increase tho rad
ical extremists in Congress, and, perhaps, to
afford Mr. Stevens and Hr. Sumner more ground
for rejecting the State Constitutions and frustra
ting every eflort for restoration. But tho com
mercial condition of tho North becomes every
day more critical, and tlie demand for Southern
trado and the necessity for Southern recupera
tion more pressing. Commerce could not pre
vent tho war, but it may have an cflcct to expe
dite and preserve peace between the sections of
the country.

Virginia.
Washington, May 7—Tho cane of tlie com
monwealth of Virginia versus West Virginia
was up to-day, and it still under discussion In
tho Supremo Court. The question at issue Is
that tlio statutes of Virginia proper, hnvo been
violated in tho cession of the counties of Qerkotey
and Jefferson to tho bogus West Virginia by the
illegal Legislature Bitting at Alexandria. A do-
erno is asked rc-instating those counties to old
Virginia. Tho argument will probably occupy
two more days. Btanton, Allison and Rcverdy
Johnson ropresont West Virginia, and Andrew
Hunter and Benj. R. Curtis, of Boston, represent
the Old Dominion.

principal railways centering in London. Plans
are now in .progress to incrcnso the lines to
nearly thirty-six miles in the aggregate oi under

Don’t Emigrate.—Tho New Orleans Com
mercial Bulletin endeavors to dissuade Southern
era from emigrating to foreign countries. The
political tempest, it thinks, lias spent itself and
will subside. Confiscation it does not appre
hend. At any rate there is no escape from the
United States except by leaving the continent
Tho whole South is auxiliary to our commercial
development, and tho whole North is destined
to absorption. So snys tho editor.
Suicide of an Alabamian.—Tho Richmond
Times of tho 4tli says: Yesterday a young gen
Meman named Canly, residing near Hun
gary Station, committed suicide by blowing out
his brains. Ho placed the muzzlo of a loaded
gun under his chin, and with his foot fired it ofi,
and thus blew his head to pieces. . Canly wns
originally from Alabama. No cause is assigned
for the rash act.
A Merciful Governor.—The Governor
Virginia seems to bo n monomaniac on the sub
jeet of pardons. Tlie courts no sooner find
prisoner guilty of murder or liorsc-stealing, than
his Excellency, Mr. Flerpont, interferes, throws
wide tho prison gates, and kids tho “unfortunate
man” go and sin no more. Sucli wholesale:
clemency is fun for tho criminals but bad for so
cicty.
Rejected.—A Washington letter of tlie 1st
to tho Charleston Mercury says:
Yesterday a noted white Radical named Boyd
applied for rcgistnuiuu, uut wiw nuuseu uu ihu
tu*— j „r having been »» Innrnto of the district
penitentiary, a appearing from the record that
ho was sentenced there somo years ago for steal
ing negroes, which fact alone ought to linve en
titled him to registration ul once, under tho new
dynasty.
How it Works.—The Charleston Mereury.of
Monday, says:
Our readers are of course curious to know
what has been tlie result, so far, of throwing tlie
cars open to the colored people. Aa far as wc
have been able to learn there was comparatively
little travel on tho cars on Sunday, by either
blacks or whites, until the latter part of tho af
ternoon, nnd then they were crowded with nc-
groes. It was common during tho day to sec
tlie inside occupied by a few freedmen, while
white people stood on tlie platform.
Fraud.—It is said that tho registration of vo
ters iu tho South has already given rise to frauds-
It is announced from New Orleans that a trade
in registration papers has sprung up in that city,
white men, who are refused tlie right, buying
tho papers of colored men, who willingly sell
them. It is reasonable to infer that in a fow
years frauds upon tho ballot box will be aa com
mon at tlie South, as they are general In tho
Northern and Eastern States.
A lloaton Operator.
The particulars below of a reeont failure in
Boston are contained in a special from that city
to tlie Now York Times:
A smart earthquake in financial circles dis
turbed the equilibrium of operators in State street
and its vicinity to-day, occasioned by the failure
or ono of tlie most extensive manipulators in
hranklln, Humboldt, Haucock, Huron, Copper
Falls, Uecln, &c., in this city, aud Corydon in’
New York. At aliout three o’clock this aftei-
noou, Air. John Leighton was arrested on a pro
cess sued out by New York parties, and convey
ed to comfortable quarters, where he will 1mcon
fined, awaiting a requisition from tlie Governor
of New York. His failure is moderately estimat
ed at a million ol dollars, one house having a
claim against him of near $880,000, while his
assets are inconsiderable. Ho was well known
as one of the most dashing outside operators in
the financial arena of tlie Hub. He was afraid
of nothing, und hod the norve and confidence of
a lion, ns ho was, among the bears and bulls.
The Widow of Bishop Poijc.—A letter from
Columbia, iu tlie Louisville Courier, says:
Mrs. Polk, the widow of the lamented Bishop
1 oik, who is not leas remarkable for her Chria-
Imu virtues than her intelligence and high ac
complishments, is now engaged in icmale educa
tion, having associated herself with Dr. Beckett
the present principal of Columbia Female Insti
tute, one ol the oldest and most justly popular
institutions ot the Mouth, tlie properly of the
Episcopal Diocese ol Tennessee. Fhr this noble
institution tho church and the country are chiefly
indebted to her lamented husband, who first pro
jected it; and bis widow could not moreflttlugly
commemorate his virtues and fill the measure of
her own useflilness, than by dedicating herself
to the purposes for which it was intended. She
has associated with her in the school an estima
ble daughter, who, by her superior accomplish
ments, adds grace and dignity to the bigli call
ing in which they have engaged.
