ATLANTA,
Thuf day Morning, M»y 30, tPsy.
The Millet! gcvilfe Southern Recorder ot Tnes-
Oty ImV, says:
We see that some of out exchanges arc still
talking about Governor Jenkins resigning his
office. It is generally understood hereabouts
that the Governor has no Intention that way.
We believe that ho and Gen. Pono are working
on harmoniously together In their respective
spheres, and as we remarked soma time since,
Governor J, Is entirely Indisposed to any contro
versy with the military authorities, and desires
quiet knd good feeling In tiro State. Wo would
regret exceedingly it anything should occur to
cause our ablo Eieouilvc to resign, ok his watch
ful eye and clear head is needed to look alter
the financial interests and local affairs of the
State as far as permitted. We are denied iris
advice on national affairs, for were ho allowed to
speak, wisdom and true statesmanship would
doubtless mark every word, tor we conceive that
there Is no one in the State, more able to advrso
wisely and prudently.
We Cope to hear no more of “ Governor Jen
kins resigning his office,” from the Georgia press.
It has been the device of one or two papers in
this State to encourago an impression that he
was going to resign, and further, to instruct tho
Governor as to his duties in this respect, tg viit :
that he ought to resign. Of course the bait thus
thrown out was not even nibbled. The moties
could not be concealed. It was apparent to eve
ry one, and produced only disgust at the idea
that some newspapers could be found to do any
kind of dirty work.
Repndlallou.
The Herald has broken ground in favor of a
repudiation of the public debt This may be se
rious, or only one of that paper’s clumsy jests;
but it is reprehensible in cither case.
We clip the toregoing from the New York
Courier. Not having sceu tho lleruUVs article to
which it refers, we are not prepared to advise our
readers of the length to which that paper goes in
advising a repudiation of the public debt. Be
it, however, in whole or in part—whatever shape
it may assume-augurs evil for the future. Does
the Herald see the approach of universal bank
ruptcy in tbeNortb, that it sounds the portentous
key note of “ repudiation of the public debt ?’’—
Does it see in the practical operations of the “Na
tional Bankrupt Law”—especially iu the practi
cal operations of the involuntary clause of that
law—the day ot financial convulsion approach
ing, which may be so prostrating, so up-rooting
in its effects upon finance, and commerce, and the
manufacturing interests North, as to require a re
pudiation even of the public debt ? If this be so,
an evil (uture is indeed approaching. Whatever
may bo said of the Herald, no one can deny that
it wields li powerful influence over the public
mind North, and that its demand for repudintiou
will find hosts to second it. To the West, this
demand has hitherto been confined. Those West-
ern papers that have sounded this alarm, will
havo a powerfull ally iu the Herald. The in
terests of the Sooth in the question are neither
so direct, nor so great, as those of the North and
West But few of our people hold Government
securities, auy large amount of greenbacks or
national currency. And yet repudiation would
still fbrlhcr impoverish us, and protract develop
ments of Southern resources for years to come.
The South needs Northern capital, and with re
pudiation, there will be no Northern, nor any
other capital to come to its relief. In one com-
,raon rain will North and South, East and West,
be involved, when the day of repudiation shall
come.

been straining every effort to direct their move
ments, and to provoke a strife between them
and the white race South, or the latter, whose
interest it is, if actuated by no other motives, to
promote the wellare aud lulure prosperity of the
black race ia their midst. And light the freed:
men will have, despite all tho muchinatioDS of
their BO-called Radical friends. In various quar
ters intelligent ireedmen begin to see light, and
on many occasions recently have drawn proper
distinctions between the Southern white man
and the Northern Radical, not complimentary at
all to the latter, evidencing the fact that Radical
influence over them is nlrcady on the wane.
Recently, a colored Baptist minister, at Beaufort,
South Carolina—where, it is well known, the
Radicals have had “lull swing" for nearly four
years, backed by all the influence of the Bureau
and military authority—writing to l\\n"Christian
Record,” among other thiugs, says :
"Some of our white ministerial friends do
more in the way of procuring farms and keeping
our poor race iu ignorance than auylhing else.
They protend, when they arc North, that they
would come down and do anything for our race
in the way of enlightening them; but instead of
this, when they see the cotton bag, they forget
all about Christ and Ilitn crucified, and the sav
ing of souls.” Of certain Northern merchants,
he says: "All they wish to do, ia to teach what
President Lincoln has done, pal the colored man
on the shoulder with tho right hand, while with
“ ' * lid
* the left hund they catcli hold of ills pocket-book ;
and when they have got the last cent from him,
their friendship suddenly ceases. Then ho is
only a nigger. 1 ’ ■ t
What tho cOforcd Baptist minister, writing
from Beaufort, says in (lie foregoing, is doubtless
the experience of other colored ministers in other
localities throughout the South, and it soon will
be, if it is not already, the experience of intelli
gent freed men, whether they bo teachers of the
Word, lay members, or beyond the pale of the
Christian Church. Light is fast breaking upon
them. The ability to deceive by professions ol
friendship and love, and the power to betray, as
the freedmen become more enlightened, will be
come more circumscribed Irani day to day, and
it will not be long before tho freedmen will dis
cover” that radical professions are as “sounding
brass and tinkling cymbals’’—mere professions,
mere sound, words, words, words.
We commend the sensible and forcible views
of tbe colored Baptist minister at Beaufort, quo
ted above, to the serious consideration of Uie
■ freedmen in this vicinity. Docs not the experi-
\ ence of many of them, we submit the proposi-
; tion, correspond with his? Has not light broken
, upon their minds, and do they not begm to sec
. and feel that there is a wide difference between
' tbe professed friendship of the Northern radical
| in their midst, assuming to control them, and
\ the friendship of Hie Southern while man, even
their former owners? If, unhappily, the great
mass of freedmto 4o not see and feel the dlffer-
jcnce between the professions of the one now, and
the acts ot (he Oliver, we arc certain that many
of them do, and that ere long light will become
so diffused among them all, that no party nor
iindividual will be capable of producing that
strife between tbe two races Poutli, upon which

The finest ton of Registration-A Letter
from Judge Aldrich.
Barnwell, C. II., 23d May, 1867.
To the Editor of the Mercury : '
Sir—I have been asked if the people sliqfl
register? I answer unhesitatingly, that every
man who will be permitted to register liis name
as a voter, should do so. The question is, not
if lie shall vote at tho coming election, but it he
shall secure to himself the privilege’ol voting
— ... . . gjj
at all ? There are other matters to be pasBCu
upon by tbe country, under the Military bill,
besides who shall be members of tbe convention.
The Constitution to be framed by that conven
tion is to be submitted to the people for their
approval, and unless the privilege of voting is
secured by registration, the power of the country
may bo seized by designing and unscrupulous
men. My counsel, therefore, is that it will be a
fatal blunder not to secure this high privilege.
If a nmn registers, lie is not obliged to vote ; if
he fails to do so, ho will not be permitted to
exercise this great franchise.
I think the Military bill is harsh, oppressive
and ungenerous, but wo must constantly bear
in mind, that it is a law of the land iu which
we live and which we arc compelled to obey ;
we must also remember our condition and uot
reiuse to exercise tbe rights which remain be

uition. Unless we secure the light to vote, we
will not ho able to embrace the "golden mo
ment.” It is not sound philosophy to be sullen
and inactive in limes of affliction and oppres
sion ; let us do ail that we caa do, to preserve
the institutions of the country and secure all ot
constitutional liberty left. I have heard good
men -say, “what is the qse to try, we are a con-
qured people?” I much prefer to hear them,
in the language of the catechism, cheerfully say,
1 will “do my duty in that sute of life into
which it shall please God to call me." That is
all—do your duty nnd be patient.
Very respectfully, your obedient servent,
A. P. Aldrich.

A Falling Off.—That plain spoken paper,
the Metropolitan Record, thinks that a falling off
of receipts and an increase of debt is working
wodcrously on the Northern people. They are
begining to understand that "enlightened” is
another word for "swindling,” “progressive"
means “fast," and “intellectual,” whan rightly
interpreted, signifies “accomplished rascality.”
There is not a professional patriot among them
who does not value his official services at any
amount that he can steal over and abovo his
fixed salary.
Registrars in Virginia.—Tho registrars ot
the several counties of Virginia under the mili

The Shenandoah Valley.—A correspon

Shenandoali Valley will probably havo the finest
and largest wheat crop ever raised in that region.
Tlie lower counties are filling up witli Pennsyl

A Man of Great moral Ideas in Hell.
Theodore Tilton has been looking into New
York by gas-light, and dare not tell wluit be
saw. He says of what he did :
“In company with several well-known public
men, and under the guidance of the police, we
made a tour, last Saturday night, through the
nethermost haunts of misery, vice and crime in
the city ot New York. This is an exploration
which every man connected witli public affairs,
cither by civil or by editorial duty, ought, it pos‘-
siblc, to make, at least once in his lile. Born iu
New York, nnd having always either resided or
labored within it, we never saw or knew our
own city until last Saturday night. Never until
then had we any adequate' conception of its
poverty,' and Its squalidncss, of its villainy, of its
debauchery, of its leprosy! The sightcilu never
be forgotten! The story, even if we had tlie
heart to tell it, must, for doconcy's sake, remain
untold. We can only say that none of the fa

some of our readers : »
It will be remembered tho General Assembly
of tlie Old ticbool Presbyterian Church, at its
session in St. Louis, in 1860, refused to receive
the delegates from tho Louisville Presbytery, be
cause they had expressed strong sympathies with
tlie South. Dr. Stuurt Robertson was tlieir
champion, and the author of the minority report.
The question haa come up in the Assembly,
which has just closed iu Gincinnati, but the re-
S uircments of the Assembly are such, thnt the
emucky Presbyterians cannot accede, to them,
without a compromise of honor ami principle.
They will cither have to remain with their

and thence to the Pacific. All goes merrily,
and it must be admitted tbe Pacific Railroad is
becoming something more than a dream.—
Thrusting a railroad hundreds of miles into n
vast uncultivated region, over which savage
tribes are still roaming, and trusting to the ex
pansion of the country to follow up the enter
prise with the .farms, mills, and towns, is a pe
culiar pioneering. The usual way haa beon for
the country to require the roads. Here tlie roads
arc expected to drag the oountry after them.—
They will go along grandly for a time, no doubt.
Government is generous. Tho star oj empire
lias not ciianged its course. Tlie tide of emigra
tion is, as always, westward. Our Pacific Btatcs
are growing witli immense vital force, and are
already communicating with tlie Asian shores of
tlte Pacific by lines ot steamers. The telegraph
wires span tlie continent, making way for the
greater iron highways. Tiie great difficulties in
the construction of the Pacific roads are, how
ever, to he apprehended. It is easy to lay miles
of rails over the level prairie," and the lat lands
on either side will pay lor tlie work. But when
the racers run into tlie Rocky Mountains, wean
ticipate a serious and protracted reduction ot the
rate of progress, though wq trust the race itself
will cot then terminate.

Horrible Suicidf..—Judge Clark, cf Hunts

cutting his throat in nn ambulance, while being
conveyed from Little Rock to his home, for
trial upon a charge preferred against him ot de
frauding widows and orphans of Federal sol
diers put of pensions, etc., collected by him from
the United States Government. The act was
committed with a razor and knife, the victim
holding one in each hand, and cutting at his
throat first with one nnd then the oilier.
Murdered.—Last October, Thomas Middle-
ton, Treasurer of Beaver county, Pennsylvania,
disappeared, and was not again heard of until
tlio 23d instant, when his body was found float
ing in the Ohio river, below Steubenville. Two
stabs were iound in tlie breast, one of them pen
creating the heart, aud on his hands were cuts,
probably received in resisting the murderers.—
The impression, previous to finding the body,
had been that the missing man had absoonded
with tlio funds in his possession.
Murderer Arrested.—A Savannah paper
states that Donnell McDonnell, one of tho four
freedmen implicated in the minder of Mr. John
Halford, on the 3d day of May, 1865, and for
whose apprehension a reward has been offered
by Governor Jenkins, was arrested by officer
Bartbelmess, a short distance from that city,
where lid lmd been working on a rice plantation.
He is now lodged in tlio county jail, to await the
capture ol his colleagues for trial.
