Mi ll who Iholr rlghta do know, find knowing daro main-
lain;
Tlirar constitute the 8t*tk."
Those who were present at llio rteent Pukrb
Frstivai. In this city, will scarcely over forget
the eloquent mnuucr in which the lion. Eras-
tus llitooKS, oi the New York Express illustra
ted the foregoing expresstvo and beautiful quota-
lion from the writings ot ono ol the most popu
lar of the Ilritlsh poets. How sadly defective in
all llto attributes ascribed by the poet to a State,
Georgia and her sister States of the South will
become, should they pass over to tho “ Radical
Republican" rule, under tho reconstruction en-
,aetments of Congress, no intelligent, patriotic
citizen of either of them can fail to anticipate!
Ho must bo wilfully blind, indeed, that does not
do so, aud will fail to discharge the solemn obliga
tion duo bis State, should ho fail, ill view of the
dangers that threaten it, to use evory effort to
ward them off. We liavo before said to our read
ers that tho great danger to Georgia lies not so
much in tho reconstruction enactments ns it does
in that which may follow—wh'at we conceive to
be inevitable—their adoption by tho Convention
ilint will soon assemble. In refereneo to those
enactments our opinion has been made known
to our renders ou many occasions siuco their pas
sage by tho Kadical Congress. Every day’s ob
servation and experience, since then, satisfy us
that they will becorno part and parcel of tho or
ganic law of our State, however distasteful and
oppressive their several provisions may be to our
people. Disfranchisement and enfranchisement
will accomplish tho work. The extent of the
former, we apprehend, lias not even yet been ap
preciated by our people. Tho registration pro
cess, through which the State is passing, will
soon disclose it, so that “ he who runs may read”
the actual “ situation.” Neither has tho extent
of enfranchisement and tho results, that, in all
probability, will How from it, been properly esti
mated. Suffice it to say that it is our deliberate
opinion, the “ Convention ” will bo called by a
majority of tho votes cast at the polls, and that
all efforts to promote a different result will prove
futile. With this conviction resting upon our
mind, wo would prove derelict in our duty to the
people and the Stato, to delude them, ifwecould,
with vain imaginations to tho contrary. What
then is the duty of our people ? The' following
extract from the Augusta Chronicle «C Sentinel
plainly indicates it. Says that paper:
"We have stated repeatedly within the last
few months our coimviction that tho true men
of the South could not afford to divide upon any
minor issue. We repeat, to day, the great ques
tion which the people of the South luive to de
cide in the approaching elections is whether the
Kadical party shall, by corrupt manipulation of
the negro vote, secure the control of the State
government If they should succeed in this
effort we confess that we see but little hope lor
the future welfare of our section. Every well-
wisher of peace, good order and free government
must exert himself for tho overthrow of the
Kadical organization which is now permeating
every section of the State.
We believe that there are many good and true
men, thoroughly conservative iu their views and
bitterly opposed to the Radical programme, who
honestly and concientiously believe Unit the
speediest, if not the best and only means of re
lief from our present or perhaps a worse condi
tion, lies iu the assemblage ol a convention and
the adoption of a State Constitution iu accordance
with the provisions of the Military bills. These
men are thoroughly Southern iu llieir feelings
and sympathies and are as true to their section as
“'W.i -’journal has ooanrou.1tboposition assigned
in the concluding paragraph of the foregoing
article, to “ many good and true men,” who are
" thoroughly conservative in their views,” Ac.,
and has endeavored to persuade its readers to
do so likewise. It has felt that tho future pros
perity of the State depended largely upon such
action ou the part of the white race within its
limits—that civil liberty, equal privileges, the
rights of person nnd to property, depended upon
it. Hence its previous course.
With the following sentiments of tho same
journal we agree, aud commend them to our
readers :
“ We know that all men are not exactly alike,
cither iu their physical structure or mental or
ganism. Ono sees danger and with prudent fore
thought takes steps to avoid or parry its effects,
while another with equal integrity of purpose
but loss discretion, rushes madly on, heedless ol
the brewing storm. In such cases neither should
bo denied the association of gentlemen or de
nounced on the one hand ns timid time servers,
or on tho other as as reckless desperadoes.
Controlled in our views by such considerations
as these, we shall make no war against those
who honestly differ with us on the subject of
Convention, only requiring from all that they
shall unequivocally oppose aud condemn the at
tempt to set up in our midst a Kadical organiza
tion, and lend their cordial assistance in the at
tempt which we shall, by tho blessings of Heav
en, continue to make, to overthrow and destroy
it.”
Hy such course of action, the State may be
saved, and left in the keeping of
* * * “ Men, high-minded men;
Men who tholr rights do know, and knowing dare main
tain
Otherwise Georgia will fall into tho keeping of
another Brownlow, a fate more sad nnd deplor
able than any military government that could
be imposed upon her. Let our people only
“ wake up” to the actual situation, and wo have
no fears but that their intelligence and patriot
ism will stimulate them to proper action !
Very Edifying.—It is, says the World, edify
ing, indeed, to behold a party, which plumes it
self on its “moral ideas," and boasts of the sym
pathy and adhesion of a great part of tho New
England clergy, chanting pious Te IJeums over
the election of such a ribald and blasphemous
old reprobato as Parson llrownlow. Judging
tbo tree by its fruits, a reconstruction policy
which produces such a Governor as Brownlow
must be truly glorious. It will be hard to match
lfrownlow in the other ten Stales; but the sys
tom may be relied on to elevato to the highest
office in each, the most reckless and brutal dem
agoguo within its borders—Hunnicutt, probably,
in Virginia, and statesmen of tike wisdom and bal
ance of character in all the other States,
Sm-iuiDAN.—Philip has not yet been removed
—probably will not be. A New York paper
friendly to the President, thinks it is too late. It
says the moment General Sheridan wrote his
saucy, insubordinate letter, he ought lo hnvi
been put in command of Boston, nr of some mill
tary department “down East,” wiiero such start
liug military government is liked. H is loo late
now to cut his head off. If the President had
been a reader of history he would remember Hi
Prencli cry ol Louis Phillipe: "C ist Irop lard.”
Ditto on Stanton. Too late!
We must admonish our vivacious young friend
of the L&Grange Reporter, that he is not running
tho Atlanta Intelligencer, and his frequent
intimations as to thu course journals, oilier than
his own, should pursue, are, to say the least, in
very bad taste. This is dictated by a kind mo
tive, and wo hope will tie properly appreciated.
Death of Hon. J. W. Blackwell.—Hon
Julius W. Blackwell, formerly a member to
I Congress from the 3d district of Tennessee, died
at bis residence in Alliens, in that State, on flic
2d instant. He was a good man, and command
ed the respect of all with whom lie came in
contact.
ANOTHER.—Ono by one the leaves arc failing.
Colonel Jacob Bcwley, a prominent politician of
Jefferson county, Tennessee, died a lew days ago.
We learn from tbo Montgomery Mail that
President Owen has purchased in Pensacola,
I iron sufficient, with that previously obtained, to
; lay down thirty miles ol the Montgomery and
| Union Springs road.
No Complaints Agalnutflen. Pope.
Wo copy tho following from tho Montgomery
Mail, though wo liavo already expressed our dis
belief in tiio report to which rclercnro is ttioilo:
Statements Imvo been made rccontly in some
ol tbo New York papers, that a deputation ol
people from Alabama waited upon tho President
and preferred complaints agnlnst General Pope,
it is now stated that tho only knowledge the
President has of tho mailer, is tho statement or
these newspapers. No such commiltco waited
upon tho Prcahiont, ami no recent complaints
arc made against Pone—nt any rato, not by tho
antl-Hadlcals of Alabama. It Is possible, nay,
quite probable, that tho Uadicals, who desire to
suppress newspapers, arc incensed nl the precipi
tation of General Pope in vindicating nnd com
manding the absolute freedom of tho press in
the case of tho Mobile lladical journal, but wo
have evory reason to believe that nolioily elso is
incensed townrds him. If ho should bo com
plained against, and his removal conspired-at,
it will lie done because he did not provide that
his freedom-of-tho-pross order should apply
strictly to llioso journals only which prolessed
so-called loyalty.
"We have it ou tho highest authority, that tho
worst enemies of a man are those oi hisown house
hold. Tho greatest obstacles against which any
people, who have struggled for political freedom
aud independence have laid to contend, wero the
traitors born nnd nurtured among themselves.
Heartless aud treacherous, vilo in their instincts
and cowardly by nature, they seek confidence
and trust only to betray. Dead to every sense
ol honorable, manly feeling, they arc swayed by
a sordid and mercenary selfishness, which prin
ciple, nnd truth aud honor arc alike powerless to
check or restrain. Kotten and corrupt, base and
depraved, they attach themselves to the cause or
the party that pays most, and paying tribute
only to success, they follow and worship it in all
its changes. To them Power and Weakness
are the synonyqics of Virtuo and Vice, and
Truth and Constancy menninglcss words.
It is the misfortuno of thu South that she 1ms
had so many of these miscreants, who, while the
bravo and honorable were fighting lier battles,
accepted of her favors only to betray, nnd now
basely seek among her enemies tho rewards of
an abject aud truculent “ loyalty.” Wc can pity
the faint-hearted and the desponding, but wo
have only contempt nnd loathing fbr the creature
who cringes to injustice installed in power, and,
spaniel-like, licks the hand that smites tho weak
and helpless.”
Alabama and Tennessee.—The result of
the late election in Tennessee seems to have en
couraged radicalism in their designs upon the
Southern Slates. The New York Tribune says:
There are many white Union men in Ala
bama who would alone carry the north counties
for the Republican party, and with the aid ol
the colored voters, there is no doubt of tho re
sult. Thus far 103,574 voters have been regis-
lercd, ol whom 41,809 are white and 01,705 col
ored. Of, the whiles at least one-third may lie
counted in the Republican vote, while tho elec
tion in Tennessee shows that the black voto will
lie almost unanimously Republican. With this
opportunity, we of the North should not neglect
tin: canvass in the South. It is our duty to see
that the organization of the party is perfected in
every Slate, and the means to inform the people
are liberally supplied.
The rebels who have migrated from the South
ern States to Brazil are said to he numerous, and
are described by a correspondent to be of the
bitter, blatant, pot-house-politician stripe, and,
although laboring under a slight, aberration of
memory when questioned as to their regiments
nr brigades, have astounding military titles; none
of them owning to less than Major. They es
pecially delight to dwoll on the beatific state nf-
gentility in which they lived in “Loosyanuer,"
before this “unfmtehnit wau>, sir. Yes, sir; had
me hundred and fitly niggers; and me sugar
works alone, sir, coat me a hundred and filly
i 1 .n.ll.jrs "
l he above is from a paiier Iirintn.i
and edited hy a down-easier who fled his native
Slate some years ago for having robbed a turkoy-
roust on the night preceding Thanksgiving day.
l'l.AiN Talk.—During the discussion ot the
sulirage question in the Connecticut Legislature,
Mr. Llamersley, of Hartford, said:
“Sir, tlie gentleman from New LondonTllns
suggested that Congress may force negro suffrage
upon us! and lie seems to think we may as well
liavo it now ns to wait for Congress to force it
on us. 1 would not go for the cliauge under
any threat that Congress might make. Let them
try jt if they dare ? Let them send on their
armed cohorts and their generals to say to Con
necticut—You shall have negro suffrage. If we
don't resist to the death, then, sir, our tree institu
tions will be lost forever." [Great applause,
which drowned the Speaker's hammer.
The British West Indies.—The condition
ol some of the British Islands in tho West In
dies is anything but satisfactory. Iu Jamaica
the public chest is empty, nml most of the Gov
ernment employees were not paid their salaries.
tbor was abounding, but the governments,
nevertheless, were warmly patronizing Coolie
immigration. That of Jamaica paid £14 per
head, that of Demcrara only £9.
Wlmt is occuriiig in the Britisli West Indies—
tho supplanting oi tho negro by coolie labor—
will follow in the Southern States. There arc
some tilings which even political parties cannot
control.
Another Move.—The Radicals North, the
extreme men, are said to be making a move to
bring out Gen. Sheridan against Gen. Grant for
the Presidency. Neither of these men have
ever given any evidence of statesman-like capa
city. Grant is said to be a clover old gentleman,
who is fond of n cigar and a glass of grog now
and then, and might be made an available can
didate. But the idea of placing tho barnburner
of the Shennudoah valley in nomination for the
position, could only have originated with some
one pretty far advanced towards lunacy.
The Vice President.—Tho New York Tri
bune says: Those who demanded that the Vice-
Presidency should be offered to thu blacks, will
learn from the sensililc and patriotic latter ol
Mr. Pelany, a colored soldier, that the “ one sen
timent among the old line leading men " of that
race is that “ no such nonsense should for u mo
ment be entertained." " Our enemies,” lie says,
“ would desire no heavier nor stronger club with
which to break the heads ol our- friends, and
knock out our bruins, than this.”
Francis S. Bartow.—Thu Savannah llepub-
tican says u public trial of this beautiful steamer
took place on the evening ol tho 8th. Tho en
gine blew her whistle iu two miuutesalter light
ing her fires; in five minutes afterwards she be
gan playing, with sixty-four pounds of steam—
which site increased to one hundred pounds,
throwing, by this pressure, a stream of solid wa
ter ticu hundred and forty-three feet sic inches.
S'ror It.—That misprint about new flour
selling in Atlanta for six dollars and fifty cents
per barrel, accidentally put iu motion by one of
the enterprising dailies of this city, about two
months ago, is still traveling. We have only to
say, when flour gets down to that figure, bread
will lie cheaper than it is now.
No Fruit.—The Athens Ilcpublicun, McMiun
county, East Tennessee, says: The fruit crop
will prove almost a total iailure in this section
of country. Scarcely sound peaches enough to
make a family pie, in McMina county, or apples
sufficient for a barrel of cider.
Heavy Exhort of Wheat.—Thu Savannah
Republican, ol' the filli, says: The Nortli Point
took yesterday morning 2,11(1 bushels of new
wheat to Baltimore, and the Herman Livingston
iu thu uilcruuou 0,030 bushels lo New York—
making nn aggregate of 8,740 bushels.
Kentucky.—Speaking iu view of the tremen
dous majority the democrats piled up IhsI Mon
day, the Chattanooga Union says if Kentucky
is to be reconstructed it will lie a large under
taking.
Instead oi investing surplus lands iu seven-
j thirties, buy gennine manure, cultivate wisely,
and the interest will be seven times seven-thirty.
|t|r, IH«rrl«k’a Apprnl to llio Jury.
Wo givo below the concluding appoal of Mr.
-It, G. Merrick, ono of tho counsel for tho ilofonso
in the Surratt caso, whero tbo truo nature of
V loyalty " is defined, nnd whero, with touching
words, the lad scene of tbo present is contrasted
with,flint of tbo past, nnd wliore tho life of tbo
accused is committed lo tho keeping of God ami
tho country:
Gentlemen of llio Jury, the District Attornoy
lias invoked your loyally. 1 cannot follow him
through bis long tirado about thu glory of thu
District volunteers, [laughter,] for I ilb not
envy ills achievements in Hint regard, nnd
have no] disposition to wasto time iu pursuing
ids argument on that point, but 1 do invoke
your loyalty. Loyalty la a word that does not
properly belong to tho lexicon of republics, but
if it does belong to llio lexicon of republics, it
means thu faitlilulncss of the citizen to tho su
preme power of the Republic. Wlmt is the su
preme power of the Republic? The Constitu
tion of the United States, and the laws in pur
suance of that Constitution. Tho loyalty oi llio
Austrian is due to tho successors of tho Ciesars.
The loyalty ol the Englishman is duo to tho
Queen. Tho loyalty of tho Frenchman is due
to Napoleon, but tho loyalty of the American
citizen is duo to no mortal man, but duo to tho
spirit of human liberty, incarnate in the Con
stitution of tho United States. He loyal to
that. 11c loyal to tho law ; above all tilings lie
loyal to yourselves, nnd do your duty. “A
feeling of duty performed," as lias been said by
a great man, “ will follow you through tin:
world, but a feeling of duty unperformed will
pursue you with the lash of affliction wherever
you may go.” All evils that are physical can
be avoided; but evil that comes from the con
science, when it arraigns us dny by day, cannot
be fled from. “ You may take tip the wings of
the morning, and flee to the uttermost parts ol
tlie earth,” but there is neither rook nor corner
in which you can hide youselves from it. Go
forth, then, gentlemen from your jury box witli
a conscience free and unembarrassed; a con
science that will say to you in all times to come,
“ You liavo done your duty.” Gentlemen of
the jury, I invoke for the prisoner, not your,
mercy, but your most deliberate judgment.—
There has been blood enough in this case. No
man can moastiro with larger dimensions than
myself tlie enormity of tlie crime which was
Committed in tlie murder ol Abraham Lincoln.
Already four liavo boon lumg, and others suffer
punishment—some for a term ol years, and some
for life. 1 repeat, tlicro lias been blood enough.
Think, gentlemen, of what disasters have fallen
upon this young man. Three years ago, within
tlie limits of this city, there was a quiet wedding.
Around tho hearth was gathered a happy baud.
A mother blessed it with a mother’s love. Her
gentle daughter, budding into womanhood, gave
to tin: scene tiie sweet lines of her devoted smile.
Beside her sat a brother, just bursting into the
promise of tlie man. Think, gentlemen, what
lias transpired since that night. The bright lire
is quenched and gone, the heart is desolate, tlie
mother sleeps in a nameless, felon’s grave, tlie
daughter drags out a weary lile witti a broken
heart, and tlie son is before you pleading for his
life. But, gentlemen, as I have said, duty per
formed must be with you ever. If lie is guilty,
convict him; it be is innocent, acquit him. May
the Eternal God so guide your judgments and
enlighten your convictions lliattheremembrnneo
of this day and tlie day ol your verdict may here
after and forever be a sweet and present recol
lection. I thank you, gentlemen, for your kind
attention.
Theatrical.—The Boston Bulletin, always
spicy, lias this bit of extravagance anent Jarrett,
and the new piece to succeed the Black Crook ;
"Mr. Jarrett, who lias made fourteen million
dollars by hook or Crook in New York, is going
10 produce a new and gorgeous spectacle in Janu
ary, at an expense of a hundred thousand dol
lars—more or less, lie sails in the China for
Europe, and will import a Rushin’ Ballet Troupe,
witli whom tho Black Crook people will not
bare comparisons—this is tho naked truth. Boys
and clergymen will not be admitted to tlie
theater, unless accompanied by their guardians.
Mr. J has gouo into training, aud train oil lor
liis Russian campaign, eats 6 lbs of tallow can
dles daily, says lie did not know that it was ne
cessary to go through Greece to get to Russia,
sspisi -i'll* lias ‘WumVm
front teeth in pronouncing words of eighteen
syllables; lie is already an accomplished linguist,
and speaks broken China with case, from con
stant traveling in the steamer of that name. The
new ballet troupe will outstrip anything ever
seen in this country, und the stage of the theater
will have an addition of several hundred feet,
when they make their appearance. Tlie scenes
will lie shifted ns usual.
Southern Manufactures.—It is not often
that Bennett's Herald contains a paragraph more
sensible than tlie one annexed:
We think it strauge that we do not hear ot
extensive investments, powerful companies and
great schemes for tlie introduction ol manufac
turing establishments in our Southern Slates,
Irom cotton mid woolen factories, from iron aud
steel, to leather, bools aud shoes, and farming
implements. The South has not only tlie finest
region in the world for cotton culture, but the
best facilitiies and tlie greatest advantages for
cotton manufactures to any extent. From its
generous soil and mild winter climate, men can
live more cheaply aud realize larger profits from
llieir great agricultural staples in tlie South than
in the West, and vastly larger profits from man
ufactures ol all kinds than can lie made in New
England or Old England, il they only go pro
perly into tho business. To men of capital look
ing about lor investments, our Southern States
now offer the most inviting field, ami Southern
manufactures, not less than Southern agricultu
ral products, offer the surest and largest returns
on liberal outlays of cash enterprise aud skillful
labor,
Durable Locomotives.—Wo noticed, some
time since, that there was on exhibition at the
Exposition iu Paris, this year, a locomotive that
had been running on some road in Franco for
such a great length of time that the engine's mi
lage lmd readied about ninety thousand miles.
Tills is rather extraordinary servico, but we are
informed that engine No. 40, on tho Louisville
and Nashville Railroad, has been in active ser
vice now tiiirty mouths, since last repaired, ma
king ninety thousand milcB running, witli every
promise that without some serious accident her
milnge will reach tiiirty thousand more before
having to go into tlie shop. This, it seems to
us, is an evidence that American workmuiiship
is deserving of gold medals for locomotives; for
11 is well known that tlie wear nnd tear on Ameri
can railroads is, from tlie nature of their con
struction, much more rapid than on tho conti
nental routes.—Louisville Journal.
New Infantry Tactics.— 1 Tho War Depart
ment has just issued, for Hie guidance of the
army, an order to tlie following effect:
The new system of infantry tactics prepared
hy Brevet Major General Emory Upton, United
Slates army, recommended for adoption iu the
place of nil others hy a hoard of officers, of which
General Grant is president, having been ap
proved, is adopted for the instruction of tho in-
tantry of the army of tlie United States. To in
sure uniformity throughout the army, all infan
try exercises and uiameuvrcs not embraced in
that system are prohibited, aud those therein
prescribed will be strictly observed.
Sunday Amusement.—A New York paper
ot tlie Olh says :
On Sunday morning a prize fight, as usual,
took place hack of West Hoboken, during the
progress of which one of the pugilists was struck
with a bottle by an outsider, [or having been
guilty of a foul blow. A general fight ensued,
in which fifteen or twenty persons were badly
cut and injured, nnd a cry of "police” was
raised just in time to prevent the killing of some
of them. No arrests were made, as tlie authori
ties wire too slow.
The Knoxville Whig, of the7th, says:
“ The common laborers of this country, who
wear dirty shirts, intend to rule. These men
wlio stand upon our streets, change shirts every
day, smoke line cigars, and drink fine brandies,
have bad llieir day.
And when the wealth, intelligence and refine
ment of a eouutry are excluded from a voice in
the administration ot its affairs, the country inis
hud its day, too.
Bush whack mis in Massachusetts.—Ten
shots were tired at State Constables McKay and
Savage in North Adams, Massachusetts, on their
return from making seizures ot liquors. The
assailants were eoneeuied in the woods near Hie
roud. The shots entered tlie carriage, but tlie
officers were uninjured.
The Emperor’s Visit.—Tho Freucli semi
official journals deny that the visit of the Em
peror Napoleon to Vienna lias any political ob
ject, and declares that the rumors attributing a
political aiguitlcanco to the inturchuuge of cour
tesies between the two Emperois are wholly
unfounded.

NKW YORK ASSOCIATED PRESS DISPATOltlS
WMliIngloil Item*.
Washington, Ang. 10.—It is stated that tho
Cabinet imvo agreed that tho President may re
move Mr. Stanton under llio first section, or sus
pend him under llio second section ot tho Ten
ure of Offieo bill.
There is nothing now regarding llio Surratt
jury.
J. W. Fitch, correspondent of tho Boston
Post, died from typhoid fever.
(iloaliiic Scones of th R Surratt Trial.
Washington, Aug. 10.—At ono o’clock, pris
oner was brought into the court-room nnd as
signed tlie scat occupied by him during the trial,
besido bis counsel, lie camo into court smoking,
and seemed in good spirit* as lie chatted with his
counsel. Merrick made an allusion to the report
that nn attempt would bo made at liis rescue,
whereat prisoner seemed much amused.
At five minutes past one, Judge Fisher re
sumed liis scat upon tbo bench. Malloy, Hie
crier, cnllcd court to order. Marshal Phillips
directed to bring llio jury down. By this time
the room was much crowded. Tbo jury was
brought in at eight minutes past one, and by di
rection of Judge Fisher, the names of tlie jurors
xvere called.
Mr. Middleton addressing tlie jury: “ Gentle
men of llio Jury, have you agreed upon your
verdict ?"
Todd -“Wo have not been able to agree.”
Judge Fisher—"I have received tho following
letter from tlie jury:
“To the Hon. Geo. P. Fisher, Judge of tlie
■Grininal Court—Sir: Tho jury in the case of tlie
United States to. John II. Surratt most respect
fully stale that they stand precisely now ns when
they first balloted upon entering tho room, near
ly equally divided, aud they arc firmly con
vinced that they cannot possibly make a verdict.
We deem it our duty to the court, to tho coun-
try, and in view of tho condition of our private
affairs, aud Hie situation of our families, and in
view of llio fact that tlie health of several ot our
number is becoming seriously impaired under
Hie protracted confinement, to make this state
ment and to ask your Honor to dismiss us at
once. Most respectfully submitted—W. B.
Todd, Robert Ball, J. R. Barr, TJhonias Berry,
Geo. A. ilohoer, C. G. Schneider, .Tames Y. Da
vis, Columbus Alexander, Win. McLean, Benj.
F. .Morsel 1,11. E. Giltiugs, IV. W. Birth.”
After tlie letter was read, Judge Fisher asked
if anything was to lie said on either side, why
tlie jury was to lie discharged. Bradley said the
prisoner did not consent, and it there was any
discharge it would be against llio protest ol pris
oner. Carrington said lie would leave tlie whole
matter witli tlie court. Fisher said lie bad al
ready received two or three notes of similar
tenor; Il there was any possibility of tlie jury
agreeing, lie would not object to keeping thorn
for a reasonable length of time, but as lie was
informed that they could uot possibly agree, lio
would discharge them. Tlie jury was accord
ingly discharged at ten minutes past one o'clock.
The jury then left tlie court room. Fisher then
immediately read the following: I have now a
very unpleasant duty to discharge, but ono which
I cannot forego. On the 2d duy of july last, du
ring tlie progress oi the trial of John Surratt for
Hie murder of Abraham Lincoln, immediately
after tlie court had taken a recess until tlie fol
lowing morning, as the presiding Justice was de
scending from the bench, Joseph 11. Bradley,
Eso acrojjted him in a rude and insulting man
ner, charging Hie Jinlgo with liaving offered
him, Mr. Bradley, a series of iusulls from the
bend) from the commencement of the trial.—
The Judge disclaimed any inleution whatever ol
passing any insult, and assured Mr. Bradley that
lie entertained for him no other feelings but
those of respect. Mr. Bradley, so far from ac
cepting this explanation or disclaimer, thereupon
threatened the Judge with personal chastise
ment, as lie understood no court could adminis
ter justice or live if its judges are to be threaten
ed with personnl violence on all occasions, when
ever the counsel may lie excited hy an imaginary
insult. The oftense of Mr. Bradley is one which
even liis years will not palliate. It cannot lie
overlooked nor go unpunished as a contempt ol
court. It is therefore ordored that his name be
stricken from tlie rolls of attorneys practicing in
this court.
Bradley immediately rose to liis leet and asked
il tlie court lmd adjourned. Fisher—" It lias
not.” Bradley—" Then, sir, in tlie presence of
tlie court, and this assemblage, I hereby pro
nounce tlie statement just read by tlie Judge, as
entirely false in every particular.” Fisher inter
rupted, “ Crier, adjourn court.” Mulloy, the
crier—“This court is adjourned." Bradley—
" Well, than, I| will say now Fisher rising to
leave tlie, bench—" You can say what you
please, sir, and make a speecli to tho crowd, if
you like.” Bradley—” You have no authority
to dismiss me Irom tlie liar: Hint must be Hie
act of three ol tlie Judges of the Supreme court.”
Judge Fisher made a reply which was inaudi
ble to our reporter, and then left tlie room, fol
lowed hy a large number of persons.
Immediately after leaving tlie court room
Fisher proceeded to the street and entered a car.
He was followed closely hy Bradley, who en
tered tlie car, and stepping up to Fisher handed
him a nolo. Fisher look tlie note, rose to liis
leet, and began to road it, and Mr. Bradley
turned and left tho enr, around which an excited
crowd hail gathered. It is understood that tlie
note was a challenge. Several police sprang into
tin: car, and Officer McHenry stepped to tlie side
of Mr. Bradley and kept iu that positioq while
he remained iu tho ear. Leaving the car, Mr.
Bradley passed through the crowd and entered
his office, and was followed hy several friends
belonging lo tin: liar. A large crowd immedi
ately gathered ou the corner in front of his office.
After remaining in his office a few moments,
Bradley came out arm-in-arm witli liis brother,
C. Bradley, Esq., oi the National Bank of tlie
Republic, and proceeded down Pennsylvania
Avenue, followed by a crowd ot friends and cu
rious persons, who excitedly discussed the pro
ceedings which had just transpired. In tlie
meantime Fisher resumed his seat in the car,
and continued his perusal ot the uote while the
car moved off. A number of liis personal friends
had entered tlie car, and a great deal oi appre
hension was manifested of a personal encounter
between the Judge aud tlie deposed lawyer.
Washington Items.
Washington, August 10.—On account of ap
prehensions of yellow lever becoming epidemic,
Grant orders that officers absent on leave irom
Louisiana and Texas, may, upon application to
the Adjutant General, have their leave extended
lo tlie 15tli of October.
Tlie following is published very conspicuously
in this morning’s Herald: “The New York cri
sis—Ex-Senator Harris, of New York, on the
present condition of the country. To the Edi
tor of the Herald: New York, August 8,1867;
—I thank you for your manly announcement iu
this morning's Herald, in U*> article headed
‘The New Crisis.’ Your views iu that article
are so wholesome that 1 cannot leave Hie city
tills morning, being transiently here, without ex
pressing my gratitude. I assure you, sir, that
tlie present attempt of party leaders to make (lie
Southern States negro Slates, is positively alarm
ing, and thu people ol tlie North must not uliow
its success, if they value llieir own freedom and
prosperity, il tlie people stop tothiuk, they will
spurn such an attempt with indignation. No-
thinglug lint false issues can possibly allow sucli
a ruinous project lo succeed.
To cheat Hie people, the advocate of this nefari
ous scheme will keep before them the idea ol mar
tyrdom, and ail that sort ol thing, but the true
issue should be ever present to our minds, and
martyrs rewarded at a less expepso tliaq Hie
overthrow of our institutions. Noty, sir, 1 liavo
dono my humble part in tho late war for tbo
Union. Two of my sons havo fallen under tbo
Union flag, nnd my part baa been iu contribu
tions, and not i:i tho reception of a penny profit
during Hie strife; but never have 1 wisliod any
thing but a restored Union. For tills, and this
alone, 1 have sacrificed, and not for tlie elevation
of tho negro, nor llio disfranclscment of the
pcoplo of tlie Southern States. If Hie people of
tlie South are not to bo restored to the Union
then tho old Csppcrbead cry, that tbo Union
could not be restored by arms, is verified, 1 ho
idea Hint tbo South must be scourged before its
.States are allowed to return, is an admission that
Hie war lias been a wicked failure, nnd lias been
waged for tho destruction of Hie republic. It is
uot a debatable question. Wc did not send our
sons to die for tho erection of negro States in
South. I appeal lo llio great masses in tlie
Nortli, who generously poured out their blood
and treasure into tlie conflict, if Ibis was their
object. Mr. Editor, you liavo lilt a tender chord
... your remarks this morning, and will, I know,
awaken Hie sleeping senses of Hie people on this
crisis. I liavo purchased a plantation in Ala
bama, and contemplate removal there, and uni
encouraging others in the Nortli to follow me;
but if that Slate is to be a negro State, farewell
to my purchase. The reasons are obvious. Fa
natics may not see them, but men of common
sense can. I tliank you again, irom my heart.

Views ol General Grant.
Some correspondent sends the following lo tlie
New York Herald, from llio columns of which
papor wo take if:
New York, August 3,1807.
Mr Bennett.—Every ono says you are a
long-beaded, shrewd old cuss, aud can see ns far
into tlie future ns the next man. Now, that inay
be so; but, James Gordon, ain’t you a little fast
just now on Grant? He is good enough in his
line, but can lie “keep a hotel f
What we want is a man who knows no North
and no South, nor no nothing, but will acknowl
edge ns his only master the party that elects him,
or elso one who is no new convert, but whose
politics ami views arc so well known and promi
nent that you can hang your bat on any point.
Now, if you can bring Grant to tlie scratch, all
right ; if not, then lie can’t have our vote, not
even to please tlie Herald. M. C. J», #l(
Mermaids.—Some of the Charleston papers
are amused over a hoax just put off, oil tlie credu
lous of that city, about tlie report of a mermaid
Hint had been washed ashore. A lew days ago,
a party of young men, out hunting on Kaw river,
in Kansas, came across six of them, which fled
at their approach. A singular coincidence was
tlie finding of six waterfalls, six set of hoop skirls,
and six e< ccteras on the bank of the river, near
where the mermaids were first seen.

A voung fellow whose better-half had just

“ Young man, you have an important respon
sibility thrust upon you."
The newly fledged dad, supposing the preach
er alluded to his peculiar home event, considera
bly startled tbe audience by exclaiming :
“Y T es, 1 have two of ’em."
The Cotton Worm.—A gentleman writing
to tbe New Orleans Times about tbe cotton
worm, says:
“ \ r ou may rely upon it, that tlie only feasible
plan is to get every body to turn out and crusli
all the worms and chrysalis that can be found,
burning all the leaves rolled up. Four or live
days witli all bands at work will save most ol

“ Blessed is he who blowelli liis own horn, for

A man ta lucky who has brass—
With gas and brass, and backers, too,
A smart chap ought to wiggle through.
Stanton.—It is understood Stanton’s refusal
to resign is based upon the apprehension that liis
retirement Irom tho office would be followed by
developments that would astouud tlie whole
country, bad and corrupt as the whole country
