The Objects ol the War as Declared by
t onaress, July, 1881.

itGFKND and maintain the kithem m y of the
CONSTITI'TION, and to preserve the Union with
all tiik moxtTV anii iitisuTs ol the several
STATE* I'MMrAtRKD."
When we contrast the foregoiug Congressiuual
declaration with tlie more rcccul oues, the max
im, “who can tell what a day may bring forth,"
deeply impresses itself upon our mind. The
war has dosed; no araicd toe ap|>ears in the
field to dispute the supremacy of the national
government; the South has laid down its arms;
peace reigns all over the laud ; slavery, the chief
cause of the war, lists been abolished ; the su
premacy of the constitution has been recog
nized ; ami what now is the condition of the
South ? That lor which the war was “not
waged"—"opi'liKsstON”—is down upon her
“with a despot’s heel“conquest" and “inter-
lercncc with the rights or established institutions ’
ol the States, is the prevailing policy; and in
stead of a maintenance ot the “dignity and rights
ol the several States “unimpaired," they are now
uuder a military despotism, shorn ot ail their
rights and their people threatened with even
confiscation, but another term lor a more signifi
cant one, robbery. Why is all this? In vain
shall we look ior any satisfactory or justifiable
answer 1 The only one tlmt cun l><; assigned is
hut a dictum—that it is the will ol a Radical
Congress, and ior the benefit oi the Radical par
ty . The day lias almost passed for remonstrance
against such cruel wrong. Powerless to resist,
the South has submitted to it; unwilling to re
sist, because her people desire a restored Union,
she has submitted. The Chief Head of the na]
lion has time and again protested against the in
iquities practiced upon her. What is she to do;
what is to become of her and her people? In
vain, thus far, lias she applied to the people of
the Nortli; iu vaiu to Congress. And yet wc do
not despair of deliverance from the oppressor.—
We see that, in the distance, which inspires us
with ho|ie. If our people will but he patient,
will but be unit'd, discharging ail obligations
they owe to the government, and iu every par
ticular be law-abiding, the despotism by which
they arc now so sorely oppressed will be re
moved as surely as the sun gives light and heat
to the earth, and tiiat at no distant period. The
man at the helm of the ship of State, has not
—sleocrtwl Qrcrii, imr will he. -Tjrautty Has ever
had a short reign, where a people remained uni
ted, tbongh they had been overpowered. His
tory is full of examples illustrative ot this, and
history will again repeat itself. No object of the
war, as declared in the foregoing Congressional
declaration, lias yet been accomplished. That
they all will be, we feel the most confident assu
rance. " God and the Right” must prevail in
the end, else what is written in the good book,
and revealed unto man, is a lie.
The Very Latest.
Under the foregoing heading, the Rome Cou
rier says:
"We have just been informed that ‘General
Order No. 49’ lias been revoked, and officers arc
at liberty to publish advertisements where they
please. It is our opinion that there is a neat era
to commence.”
Our friends of the Courier, we trust, will not
be disappointed in their expectations. For our
self, experience lias taught us, that, in most in
stances, it is more iu consonance with human
nature and the pride of power, to persist in error,
than to retract and render justice. In the mat
ter ol “No. 49," we have yet seen no reason to
change our, nor do wc believe that the Com
manding General of this military district lias
changed his, opinion. This is a new era ot smuil
things—the rendering “unto Caesar tlmt which is
Cicsar’s” is a maxim not recognized by the “Rad
ical Party."
Rev. H. P. Callaway.
This talented young minister, who for some
weeks was a sutlerer Irom severe nervous pros-
tra'ion, induced by close application to his du
ties, and by indigestion, we ure happy to say,
has recovered his health. He lias resigned the
pastorate of the Baptist Church at LaGraugc,
and is now without a field. There are very
lew young ministers ns acceptable as Mr. Calla
way, and it is presumed tbut he will have nu
merous applications for his services.
No Duel-Roussaan and Mheridan.
Several ot our exchanges have indulged in an
ticipations of a duel between Gen. Sheridan and
Gen. Rousseau—cause, a question ofvcrucity. It
will be seen, however, tlmt there is no danger, at
least lor the present, of sucli un occurrence, ns
seas and lands separate the parties—Sheridan lit-
iug ordered to Fort Leavenworth, and Rousseau
having sailed witli his family to California front
New York on Saturday last, in the steamer Ari
zona.

to rvuounco their allegiance in the hope of -re
ward or Infiucnctid by ftmrs ot Injury to person

gion : the most gallant officer in battle,* have
given way under the otto or other of the inllti
ences—their principles, like Holt Acre*' courage,
•sizing out at the etuis ot Uirir fingers, in the
lure of defeat. Honor among thieves is only
|msslble lit the event of cotitimied success, and
becomes a myth iu the dungcous nr in sight ol
tlie gallows ol' outraged law.
The South, iu Iter recent struggle for indepen-
deuce, has proved no exception to tills general
rule, and we notice, day alter iluy, those most
stce|ied in “ treason and rebellion, who fired the
Southern heart, voted men and money, pledged
the last limn ami tlie last dollar, and in lact did
everything but meet tlie dangers their cowardly
natures shrank from, now dealt ing to otter the
property, nay, the blood, of their more iionoru
ile Confederates, upon tlie altar of their unmis
takable loyalty. Conscious ol their owu perfidy,
and doubtlul of convincing others of their earn
estness, they desire, through excess, to establish
tlie proof ol their position, hoping by their very
intvm|<erunee to be received without the usual
probation to which converts are subjected.
Such men, who have been a disgrace to all
ages ami every uiulertakicg, have usually found
but lcm|iorury benefit trout their couduel. For
although iu limes ol revolutions good men may
-iill'er ami bad men rule, tlie inherent honor nail
iruth ot man will rise above the petty troubles
ol the hour, mu) exert their sway over the desti
nies ol individuals and ol nations. The base
pamlcrcr to fear and avarice will be disappoint
ed, or his temporary success will only serve to
make him tlie more notorious victim ot outraged
honor and truth.
it is a little remarkable with wlmt meagre
success the Southern renegades have met tiieir
iviudy protestations ol extreme und unuiixcd loy
alty. Either from the character of the men
thumsclvcs, their over-eagerness to make their
patrotisiu pay, or in tlie present confusion ot
political matters, ilicir unblushing ellbrts to ride
into office upou the shoulders of the negroes, the
better class of Northern men openly denounce
tliein, or only retrain Irom doing so* in hope ot
using them lor the purposes ol party success.
\\ e were especially struck with this fact by
the open declaration of some ol the leading
speakers in u meeting of ex-officers, soldiers and
sailors of the United States, la id in the city of
Richmond a few days since. Their objects be
ing political, a discussion upon a pending reso
lution brought out an inquiry into the prospects
oi reconstruction in Virginia ami the means best
to be used in accomplishing that object.
Lieutenant Colonel Merrill is reported as say
ing, in substance:
“Tlmt lie hud rather take by the hand a Con
federate soldier who fought Irom lamest inten
tions iu a wrong cause, if lie honestly accepted
the situation, than the so-called Virginia loyalist
—even if lie does have a newspaper—who voted
for the ordinance ol secession, and thereby put
the former into service against his will.
"Colonel Kgbcrt says he was not in favor ol
keeping iu office those renegade Yirgiuiatis who
voted for secession and then Went Nortli ns
Union shrickers, in preference to men who
lmd periled their lives in defeusc of their coun
try.”
Other members of tlie organization spoke in
the same spirit, ll may suit the purposes of cal
culating politicians to use these subservient tools,
hut honorable men, who periled their lives to
maintain tlie government, cannot continue in so
cial and political affiliation witli men who have
no claims to their respect, and who will surely
contaminate all with whom they come in con
tact. Meu cannot und will not lorteit their self-
respect by useless and distasteful attempts to
cover the baseness of such characters under the
convenient plea of party necessities, or reward
their crimes by official drains upon the Federal
Treasury. Such characters must soon stand be
fore their fellow-men stripped of all their masks,
and die mid he buried in the ignominious graves
dug by their own conduct amidst tlie execrations
of the ignorant people whom they have be
trayed.
Many of these Southern loyalists have rather
over-stepped the bounds of prudence iu their
grasping desire to secure tlie rewards of their
perfidy, in swallowing the lest oath for a quar
terly consideration. Wc see it stated that the
United States District Attorney for Georgia 1ms
announced that such as have taken this oath
wrongfully will lie prosecuted lor perjury. There
is au inviting field lor the same <q>crutiim in this
.Stale, unless our Attorney is too busy giving
“home thrusts" to the "dead rebellion,” or in
sympathy with such perjurers, and pleased with
his own escape, lie 1ms issued a special dispensa
tion to his erring brethren. The day will come
when these nieu cannot escape the consequences
of their crimes, and they will call upon the rocks
and mountains to fall on them, and the darkness
to hide them from an outraged people.— Il'iY-

The Washington correspondent of the Cincin
nati Car.'tie says this advertisement excited much
comment. Tiiero is perhaps, substantial reason
why it should excite not only comment Inn anxi
ety. The Radicals have treated the Southern
Stales und legislated for them us conquered
provinces. This has been held botli in this country
and Europe as an acknowledgment on the part of
the government ol the United States ol the legal
existence of the “Confederate - Slates govern
inenl,” aud tlmt, therefore, the United Slates iu
conquering the hitler ami appropriating its ter
ritory, hecitme responsible lor its debts. The
pariy advertising tor Contederale bonds un
doubtedly holds this view. The bonds Unis
purchased will likely turn up in Europe some
day not very distant. It is not at ail improbable
tlmt tlie payment of these bonds will become a
question of grave import, and Ra Heal rule lew
laid the foundation for a t'eiimnd upon this
country which it will be found difficult to evade,
if made liy sueli nations ns England und France,

Tlie ranrderer Caught.
The evening train from Columbus, yesterday,
brought Cozatt’s murderer, whose arrest luid
been telegraphed to the railroad authorities some
hours previous to his arrival. His name is Smart,
alias Bill, and lie was, in ante bclluin times, tlie
properly ot Mr. Nathan Bass, of this city, and
had tlie reputation of being n tldef and a bad
character generally. The circumstances of his
arrest are as follows:
Tuesday evening he went into tlie saloon nf
Mr. Asa Brantly, at Montezuma, and asked for
a shirt. Mr. Brantly told him lie could find one
at. Mr. Cunu’s store, just opposite; lie thuu went
over there. Mr. Brantly thought that lie recog
nized in liia person the murderer of Cozatt, ac
cording to tlie description he hud heard of him.
Getting the assistance ot a Mr. Joiner, they en
tered the store, and Joiner wunt up to tlie negro,
luid Ids hand on him, and said, ‘ You are my
prisoner.’ The uegro then pushed him away,
and drawing his pistol fired at hint, the bull
passing through the coat sleeve of his left arm.
Joiner then went to the door to prevent him from
getting out, when the negro fired at him a second
time, the ball passing through his coat near the
collar, pushed bis way through the door aud
ran; Mr. Brantly pursued him, and fired a:
him three times; it was entirely too dark to see
whether the shots took edict, and a crowd
attracted by tlie firing having collected by
this time, the pursuit hud to be abandoned.
Next morning, however, Brantly, Clew, aud Wa
ters started in search ot him, and tracked him
by blood to a negro quarter un Mr. Hale's plau-
tutiou, about six miles from Montezuma, where
they found him asleep; he then surrendered, hut
said “he would rather have been killed than
taken alive."
Tlie shots fired by Brantly took effect iu his
leg and arm. On his arrival here, he was deliv
ered to tlie jailor, und asurgeon provided to look
alter Ills-wounds. He prohablv will be taken to
Butler to-day lor trial. W. K. DcGrattenreid,
Esq., attorney for the 8. W. Railroad, goes down
also to conduct the trial.

“But where’s the old stock ?”
“At home, probably."
“Don't they come to Hie Park ?
“Very rarely. They don't mingle with tlie

'•Brotherhood of Loromollve (engineer***
—A High Compliment.
Major Campbell Wallace, the Superintendent
of tlie Western nnd Atlantic, or Georgia State
Road, and one of Hie most intelligent and effi
cient railroad iimnagers in me country, in a letter
to E. B. Walker, tlie Superintendent of the
Macon & Western Road, written on the 19th
instant, says:
I have, tor more than a year, been a close ob
server of tlie workings nnd objects ol tlie order
of the “Brotherhood of Locomotive Engineers.’'
and 1 am fully satisfied tlmt it is an organization
that every railroad officer nnd stockholder should
encourage nnd sustain T, e inlluenees oi their
operations are to give us competent, Holier, relia
ble gentlemen in their uepartment; nnd lean
bear testimony to tho fact that, to my own know
ledge, they are succeeding admirably.
Truly, Campbell Wallace
No one needs to be told of tlie important and
responsible relation that this class ot men hold to
society. Lile and properly »re in their hands
every hour of tlie day to preserve or destroy
And therefore Hie community cannot be indiffer
ent to the success of any measures, any associa
tion whose aim Is lo raise tlie standard of ability
and character among locomotive engineers. It
is probubly known to many ol our renders tliut a
Brotherhood of Engineers is in successful opera
tion in tiiis country, and steadily growing in
numbers and iiitiuence. At first it met witli dis
trust and opposition, its scope seeming to begiu
and end with combinations ol employees to raise
their wages, and compel railroad companies to
accede to their demands. But tlie society is now
bused on wider grounds—aims at more liberal
views, and lias tlie confidence nnd co-operation
of railroad superintendents and officials, as well
ns ol tlie public at large. Tlie order may now
Is: considered to lest on a permanent foundation.
Hulls are fitted up and furnished witli libraries
in iiiiiuy of the divisions; a monthly journal has
been established, to which tlie members contri
bute ; Hie discussions relating to improvement
in the management, nnd detailed operations of
tlie entire structure and running ol the trains on
the railroads ot this continent. But perhaps tlie
uiost valuable leiiture ol tlie society is tlie fund
set apart and accumulated lor the relief of the
widows and children of those members whom
deatli or misfortune overtake, iu tlie prosecu
tion of llidr perilous duties.
The Brotherhood, wc learn, is in a prosperous
condition iu this Stale, for which a great deal is
due to tlie activity and intelligent industry of
Mr. II. C. Sheets, of this city. We wish it most
abiiudunt success.
A Noiile Deed.—Tho following is Irom Ihe
August number ut tlie Land lie Leov, aud was
brought to memory, says thu editor, by flic name
of one of the President's bondsmen:
“ A Northern man married in our native vil
lage a Southern lutly, nnd died soon lifter tlie
marriage. Tho widow discovered, in looking
over her husband’s papers, tlmt lie was indebted
to an abolitionist at the Nortli, in tlie sum of
$1,090. She told her administrator that there
must not be n stain upon tho memory of her hus
band, anti proposed selling her house aud lot to
pay the debt. He wrote to the creditor, staling
tlie destitute condition ol tlie widow, and her
honorable intention. For an tinswer lie received
ii letter inclosing tlie note of tlie deceased hus
band as a present to the widow. The nnmc of
tills generous creditor was Gerritt Smith, of New
York. In a private letter to ourselves lie says;
It is time lor men lo quit hatiug and learn lo
love one another.”
Coat or Radlral Hule,
Au exchange well says : "Out of every dollar
tlie laboriug man earns, nlioiit sixty cents is taken
indirectly lo keep tlie indolent negroes, to main
tain mililnry despotism over eleven States, nnd
euriclt abolition officials. This is why our poor
men are kept poor, and our laboring men com
plain ol hard times. It Is tlie high prices nnd
high taxes tlint takes their money, and it is the
negro bureau, military despotism, and abolition
officials tlmt make the taxes high. To get rid of
these Radicalism must Iki voted out of power."

The ntonlKomerr Couaervallvc Conven
tion.
Montgomery, Sept. ft.—Tile Conservative
Convention adjourned to-day aitur adopting tlie
following resolutions:
The conservative men ol the State ol Ala
bama in convention assembled in tlie city of
Montgomery, adopt as an expression ol lheir
views (lie following resolutions of tlie State ol
Pennsylvania, adopted at a recent convention in
tlmt Slate—
1st. Tlie Constitution ol Hie United Slates be
ing tlmt form of civil government established
by the founders of the Union, with such changes
us have been subsequently made therein in the
manner prescribed by itself, is the only rightful
government binding iijmiii every inhabitant ol all
ranks, sexes, colors, age and conditions, and it is
tlie duty of each and every one without excep
tion or modification under any circumstances to,
protect and defend tlie same.
2d. In all conflict of powers under that instru
ment, the supreme judiciary power is the only
arbiter whicli is independent of, and iu its pro
vince superior to, eaeli of the others, and which
they are bound to obey.
9d. Tlie union of tlie States is decided by the
war, and accepted by the Southern people to he
perpetual, and the authority ol tlie Federal
Government is supreme within its constitutional
limits.
4th. Cougrcss is not tlie Federal Government,
nor is tlie President, nor the Supreme Court.
Tlie Federal Government is that form of civil
policy established by tlie Constitution consisting
of all three, each supreme in its own limits, ami
eaeli entitled equally with tlie other to tlie loyal
obedience of every inhabitant, ol all the States.
fttli. By the Constitution aud under the lun-
damental lawol tlie Federal Government, which
is superior to Congress, aud of which Congress
itself is tlie creature, representutiou iu Congress
und the electoral college is a right Uinduiiicnlul
aud indestructible iu its nature, und abiding in
every State, being a duty us well as a right per
taining to the people of every State, and the de
nial of whicli is tlie destruction of tlie Federal
Government. *
Gth. Each State under the Constitution has
the exclusive right to prescribe the qualification
of its own voters.
The Conservative men of Alabama adopt as a
further expression ol their opinion and purposes,
tlie following :
7th. Resolved, Thill it is our earnest aim und
purpose to cultivate relations of friendship, har
mony und peace between the two races; to deal
justly with the blacks, and to instruct nnd aid
iu instructing them in a proper understanding of
al! their duties to themselves, to society, and to
the country; aud wc denounce us treacherous
and base all attempts by bud men to engender
or encourage antagonism between the two races.
(Hli. That we are inhabitants ot a common
country, sharers and sufferers of a common des
tiny, and we will do all in our power to instruct
and eievnte the colored race iu its moral, social
and political responsibilities.
9th. While we have charity for the colored
man, and feel, inclined to look indulgently and
tolerantly on his prejudices of race, inculcated
and encouraged as they have beeu by recent
events nnd insidious counsels of bad men, wc
appeal to them, by common interest und a com
mon country, to place their trust in those they
know to be honorable, nnd to deni cautiously
witli strangers who hear no evidence Hint they
were honored where they are better known.
Rumor Contradicted.
Washington, Sept. 5.—Tlie report current of
a sharp colloquy yesterday between the Presi
dent aud Gen. Grant is groundless.
Dealt) of Col. Shepard.
Mobile, Sept. 5.—Colonel F. B. Shepard, who

000. Rains continue, hut reports from tlie inte
rior are good; a fair crop is expected ol uplands
quality. Tlie new cotton received so far good
as usual; no Sea Islaud received yet.
North Carolina Republican Convention.
Raleigh, Sept. 5.—The Republican Conven
tion re-assembled to-day. A more thorough and
permanent organization ol tlie party throughout
the Stale, lias been effected. Stormy morning.
Duriug Hie evening session many speeches were

confiscation, nnd warned thu freedmeu against
the dangers surrounding them. No platform as
yet Iris been adopted. Resolution referring

Congress, was carried by a tremendous majority,
amid vociferous cheering. They meet again to

ply Gen. l*o|ie, in which he asserts Hint no rr-
*|iuctali)c while man in Ihe Somh approves of

nina estimate* cholera deaths since July at nix
thousand; Mem* spreading, but abating in fa
tality.
Mqjor Kenney, oi the Fort Phil Kearney man
sacra commission, bas arrived, after six months

mentary terms, to which lie responded. Reso
lutions ol regret at parting with bint were read
and adopted, <me nominating Mheridan as An
drew Johnson's successor. Tlie Republican in
its evening edition reviews tlie administration ol
Sheridan, pronouncing tlie civil part of it a fail
ure, hut his military achievements are highly
extolled.
Ctnliy Relieve* sickle*.
Charleston, Sept. ft.—At noon to-day Gene
ral Canity ap|ieared al District Headquarters and
formally relieved General Mickles. He was re
ceived with a salute of 13 guns. Sickles in his
tarewell order commends zeal and fidelity in his
subordinate officers and troops. Canby’s first
order simply announces tlmt lie nssumed com
mand, names his stall, and continues in lorce lor
the present all existing orders. Mickles sails for
New York ou Saturday. He publishes in the
city papers to-morrow a lone letter to ( Joncral
Grant in vindication ot his course.
California Flection*.
San Francisco, Sept. 5.—The election is pro
