The Ati.asta lNTRU-ioKNeisn, of yesterday
morning, copies, in its editorial column, an nr
tide from the Augusta Chronicle, as follows
W. L. ScKt oos.—The contemptible creature
whose name heads this article having placed
himself without the pale of responsibility, l>\; a
lvlusal to rtwpontl lo a “ all ” iiuiut* up»'n *nm
hv a gentleman, tor satisfaction for calumnies to
which lie had given publicity, we cannot aliord
to kick him into lespcctnbilitv by noticing the
sctirriUone allusions to us lit his tllthy sheet, in
its issue nr the Sd instant.
Thin paragraph contains two separate and dis
tinct falsehoods—/olwAoMfs tA.it tetrt well known
to Jaiiei) I- Wiiitaeer, Editor and Proprietor
of the IsTBi.LIoEJtCER, irAen he propagated them.
They are,
j That I " calumniated ” some gentleman.—
A ud.
2. That I placed myself “ without the pale ol
responsibility" by refusing to raffxmd to a cal)
tor satisfaction —-Ation/n Oinnion, 9th in*t.
In mutter to Hie ioregoiug extract from an nr
tide in the Opinion of yesterday, we have to
state, fir*t, that its writer, Mr. Scruggs, lias gar-
lied the article Irom the Chronicle if Sentinel
which was republished iu the Intem.ioenckk.
That article was “propagatett” by this journal
as follows
.from tbs Chronicle ft Bantlusl. I
W. L. SCROlKJ*.
The contemptible creature whose name heads
this article havinb placcil liimselt without the
pale of responsibility, by a refusal to respond to
a “call” made upon him by a gentleman, lor
satistaction for calumnies to which he had given
publicity, we cauuot afford to kick him into re
spec lability hv noticing the scurrilous allusions
to us lu his tiitliy sheet, in its issue ol the 3d in
stant . ,
In justice to some of the gentlemen whose
names be parades in his dirty sheet, we desire to
state that we have heretotore recognized two or
three of them as gentlemen, and we have as yd
had no reason to change that opinion. To thorn
it is scarcely necessary for us to say that they
were not in our mind's eve when speaking ol the
• white niggers of Atlanta.” The cowardly cur
who conducts the “nigger organ" at Atlanta
knew lull well whom we alluded to, hut true lo
Ids instincts of baseness and depravity, seeks to
fix upou gentlemen tliu odium which he knows
attaches to himself.
Mr. Scruggs, it will he seen iu the foregoing,
copies but one paragraph ol the articlo that
was copied into the columns of this journal;
omitting, as ho docs, Hie second paragraph—
which, if he had published it, it would not be
necessary for us, with the intelligent fair-minded
reader, to make known now, why it was repub
lished in this journal—wo make the following
explanation: Our intention then was, nothin
more nor less than to give to the Editor of the
'i'.roniele it Sentinel who wrote tiie article copied
—a gentleman whom we highly esteem—the
benefit of our columns, "in doing justice to some
ot the gentlemen whoso names” Mr. Scruggs
had paraded in the Opinion, [residents ot this
city, and who, otherwise, ns we anticipated, and
as it ha3 turned out to he, would possibly never
have seen the justice which hacUbecn reudered
opi/tima— mwwwli the columns at least ol the
tore us in the article ot Mr. Scruggs upon which
we arc commenting, for, as will he seen iu the
extracts irom bis oien article which appear at the
head ol this notice, lie has carciully abstained
Irom publishing the article of the Chronicle it'
Sentinel, as it appeared in that pnper and in the
Intelligencer, garbling to twit liimselt and
make out ot a had case the best appearance.
In the second place, Jcdoe Whitaker denies
any knowledge of what Mr. Scruggs affrms to he
"two separate and distinct falsehoods—falsehoods
that were well known to Jared I. Whitaker, Editor
and Proprietor of the Intelligencer when he
propagated them." Jcdoe Wuitakeii neither
knows now, nor did he previous to the publica
tion of tiie charges of wltich Mr. Scruggs ot the
“ Opinion”complains, know that they were, or are,
falsehoods. His opinion in relerence to that ques-
tion ol veracity be has never yet made known.
When he chooses to do so, lie will not hesitate
to do it publicly, or through tiie columns of this
journal, should it be required. All that lie will
now say is, tiiat he has at least as much regard
tor, and belief in the veracity of Hie Editor of
the Chronicle it Sentinel os lie lias lor Mu.
Scruggs of the "Opinion." It is false that
Judge Whitaker knew, or does know, what
Mr. Scruggs, of Hie “Opinion affirms lie does,
and as a falsity he brands the charge.
Baltimore and Ha merchant*.
Baltimore has done so much for Georgia, and one
house in it so much for our suffering people sinec
the war closed—tiiat of GaRRIEL D. Clark,
dealer in watches and jewelry—Hint we but do
an act of justice in commending it to Southern
patronage. Mr. Clark, wc have been apprised
by Georgians, is n liberal, generous, high minded,
gentleman, whose hand bus always been open
to aid and assist Southerners in distress. He is
a man of large means, and is so well knowu in
Baltimore for his excellent heart, tiiat lie com
niands an immense custom on that score alone
hut independent cl tiiat he is a large, importer
and has the choisest collection of watches, dia
monds, and jewelry in the United States, and
his prices are reasonable. Wc trust that
citizens will patronize so liberal n man, as lie
lias proved himself on all occasions in aiding
all from flic South and Southern institutions.
Southerners should not only honor the name of
Gabriel I). Clark, but should liberally patronize
him in his business.
Commercial Prominence ok Savannah.—
Wc extract Hie following irom the New Vorl
Journal of Commerce. Coming from a paper of
such standing ns a commercial sheet, the com
plimentary notice ot Savannah and Hie enter
prise of its merchants and people is especially
gratifying:
“Savannah is taking the lead among Southern
cltic*. With Hie exception ol New Orleans, Hu-
vannnh is the first commercial city south ol Hie
I'otomnc. This is owing, iu a large inciistiic, to
her complete railway connection with ueiglKior-
ing States, by which facilities are given lor the
expeditious traiis|sirtatioii ol freight and pas-
aengers. These established, a mercantile marine
of corresponding magnitude iieceHttmily follows.
The trade with Savannah employs five lilies of
steamers, of which three are to New York.—
Still another to litis city is just going into ope
ration."
We can add tiiat Hie prospective line alluded
to is already running. Tiie Ii eights to, from and*
through Savannah have hugely increased by Hie
uew enterprises of Hie past two years, and we
cannot see why this increase of business pros
perity should not coutinue in still larger propor
tion, if the merchants and citizens will exert,
themselves for Hie object.—Savannah Nun <1-

Tub Itichmond Whig learns from Hie United
States paymaster ot tiie Itichmond district that
the government pays Hie troops in and around
the city ol iticbmoud $193,000 per month, mak
ing a million and a hall dollar* |ier annum.—
Tills, added to Hie uuiounl expended in the Com
missary, Quartermaster's, and Bubslstence De
partments, makes the amount approximate, in
the aggregate, $3,000,0001
all the negroes living iu the neighborhood should
desire the negro exeeutial, while General I’opc
lengthens out his days, tin* jail guard sleep, while j contract
another soldier breaks open the jail atnl turns
the murderer out v
Tito soldier who broke open the jail was ar
rested for some alleilged offense and pul in jail,
but when he had committed a high offense in
breaking the Jail and turning out a murderer, lie
was suddenly sent nil to Nashville, ns 1 am In
formed. Will nny other soldier now be sent to
jail, and then sent to Nashville, alter the negro
is turned out again? General I'opo ought to
look into this matter, for no one believes tlint be
would countenance such things ns lire believed
here; and some Micve that the soldier was put
in jail to turn out the negro, and was then sent
off to avoid punishment.
The negro was set king to kill two other ne
groes and a white man, and his arrest by the
Irecdincn has probably saved the lives of others.
Surely lie does not deserve much more clemency.

serpent. 1 have shown you how deceitfully
wicked this pretense is. It is the Constitution

Our State Constitution only conforms lo that.—
Now can a Slate Convention change the Con
stitution of Hie United Stales? No; and the
pour creatures that seek to have you deceived
know It. This is a snare—intended as a snare.
They know lliul a clause in the Stute Constitu

in conclusion, my Irieruls, l will brolly sum
up the points which 1 have discussed, and which ; innihnoii, tm
I Imvc established hv facts and artnimenis which ; people^-it u. i
I holiercno man will even attempt to enutii
debts unpaid and still open. Settle them
‘yourselves, lit view of our misfortunes, let
creditors he satisfied with as little as possible,
and let debtors pay as much as possible. Let us
Is-kind to each oilier, and neither debtor nor
creditor ask the treacherous help of a common
enemy. , .
Sneli are Hie pretended arguments to induce
von to accept them! Military hills. There lias
‘never yet been an argument offered ill lavor of
II,in K:\dicul scheme of reconstruction which was
addressed lo the judgment, the conscience, the
manhood, the honesty, or the patriotism ot tiie
me
vert.
n the lirst place, I have shown you what you
are required to admit and to do, it you accept
the so-called plan of reconstruction proposed by
these Military bills
1. You must admit that your present State
government is illegal. Not because it is illegal,
nor because any court or judicial authority has
decided it to he illegal: hut only because Ibis
fragmentary Congrt ss, in which you Itave no
voice, has elmscii to ileel ire it illegal.
•<. You must then Inrin a new shale govern
ment. Not because you are dissatisfied with the
one you lmve, but only because this same revo
lutionary body has chosen to order you to lorm
a new one.
3. This new government, is mil to be lormed
by those whom you are willing to select and
trust. On the contrary, every mini whom you,
the people, have heretofore deemed worthy of
trust and confidence, expressly excluded Irom
the lorntalioti and administration of this new
government ; and they are so excluded only h •
cause yon have deemed them worthy ol jr'ir
trust aiid confidence. Their only crime or disa
bility is. Hint you have honored them, or your
lathers honored them, even titty years ago. I lie
dishonor will lie, not oil those who served you,
but on you who consent to their disfranchise
ment only because, they served you. This same
so-called Congress designates the persons who
shall lorm and administer the new government,
und the persons so designated are the negroes—
your former slaves—who Itave neither experi
ence nor knowledge of government, and ste-h
portion of Hie whites as have nev-r hclore been
entrusted with such important work.
•t. This new State Government is not to he
formed to suit you, nor to suit the negroes nr
whiles who lorm it, nor to suit any portion ot the
people, black or while, who are to live under it,
but must he lormed to suit this same Congress
who arc not to live under it, nor to have their
rights ol person or property subjected to it or
affected by it.
For such wotk is it wnnderlol lied intern-
gonco, and virtue, and experience, tire declared
untrustworthy, and ignorance and vice and it'.-
xpericnee only are deemed available? is lie
not honored who is excluded ? is he not in
sulted wlm is selected ? and is hr not disgraced
■ i w ' hL . c ,',na pnrr t nave sttmrn you xvtty
these tilings are required.
1. They to-, not required to maintain or en
force Hie Federal Constitution. On Hie contrary,
the very authors oi the scheme admit it is . ou-
trnry t.i the Coii-tiutlion, is outside ot the Con-
t i tut ion. and i usurpation unless the Con-titu
lion is to tie considered as repudiated. Y't,
while admitting that the work required is out
side ol the Constitution, you arc required to do
that very work under an oath to support the
Constitution! Not a man among you who has
advised you to accept these Military hills, lias
dared to risk his reputation by sayin
tutional, or just, nr desirable. 1 have shown you
the difference between llicso Dills and ordinary
eases, anti the ease of the emancipation of
slavery. You are not now agreeing lo au issue
made during the war. You are not even sub
mitting to what others have already done. But
you are ordered to carry out what is yet a pro
position—a proposition which was never even
suggested ns involved in the war—which It ts
been organized since the surrender and contrary
to tbe terms of surrender—a proposition which
its own authors admit is contrary to the Consti
tution, and which these same authors require
you to carry out under an oath to support, the
Constitution!
The proposition i« to subvert,your government:
the eliti is to ticcomp!i-h your dishonor : and the
means to accomplish it is ymr perjury I
2. These things are not required in order to
restore the Union Such a Union never before
existed. The old Union to lie preserved is a
Union of consent. This Union proposed by
this scheme isoncol force. The old Union was
formed by white men. The one proposed is to
he formed by negroes. Tbe old Union had in
telligence and virtue for its support. The new
Union excludes intelligence and viituc, anil re
lies on ignorance ate I vice. The old Union was
founded in harmony and good will. Tint new
Union, now proposed, is founded only in hale
and vengenec.
3. I itave also shown you that this new Stale !
government, is not needed to proti-rt the m-gio. |
Oil the contrary, the existing Slate g-ivernmenl, 1
which you arc required lo declare illegal, is the I
.a Hie last place, 1 have endeavored lo show
you what you ought to do to prevent Hie scheme
ol these Military bills from becoming perma
nently fixed upon the country:
1 withhold your consent. Never, under any
eiivinnsluiircs, yield your consent, hill under all
eireimtslanees, resist ‘as you may. it is certain
the scheme can never become valid against your
will —I mean the will of Hie qualified while vo
ters el lie: Stale. It sufferings come hear them.
Any suffering w hich others may inflict will tie
light when compared to tiie heavy and ever
pre-sing burden of your own sell inflicted dis
honor. ‘ No man ever yet suffered for the right
who was not ever afterward loved and honored
by all men. No man ever yet yielded to wrong,
under tbe whispers of policy, who did not lose
respect for himself and the regard of all honora
ble men.
2 Let us, at all time*, show our willingness to
obey tbe Constitution and live, in good faith, in
tic Union under it, and learlessly assert all our
legal rights.
L t us ho kind and just to Hie deluded ne
gro, and, as occasion may serve, seek to show
hiri 11is 11 tie interest and Ids real friends.
Tims, in patience and firmness, resisting the
..mg and doing the right, our final triumph
shall be sure. That triumph is coming. The
dark clouds of wicked deceptions arc bciug
swept away and the sweet sunshine ol real
peace is breaking upon us. The Northern peo
ple can uot be always deluded, and wicked men
cannot always have sway.
But suppose the change shall never comer
Suppose the Northern people shall remain for
ever mad, and the deluded followers of wicked
I rulers? Can you heller your condition by con
senting lo regard their madness us wisdom and
their wickedness as just? Never! It is better,
lur better, to stiller wioitg Hum consent to in-
I rainy. Alter all there is no true eatthly great
ness except in vindicating the truth amt suffer
ing tm the right. Leonidas, perishing with his
three hundred, was greater tliau Xerxes liviug
at the head of his three millions. Paul, in his
bonds, was greater than Agrippa on his throne;
and wlm had not rather die as did Stephen, limn
live to bo the most applauded of tiie Radical
madmen who stoned him? The GoJ of filial
justice* has often lifted up men and nations who
‘patient!v bore the greatest wrongs inflicted by
I soe-s, rA.in-rttm'iOi-e.h'm’I.rmvjMAUl KKorAXLluiu-
ed themselves. Whatever evils their enemies
1 m ly intlict upon them, I beg anti beseech the
I Southern people never to vote themselves into
that greatest possible infamy— lining under negro
rule according lo Itatlic.il will. From every mis-
; fortune there is hope of escape, but from volun-
[ tacy degradation there is no recovery. If the
j Inured ol those to whom we so honestly surren-
: deled our arms will it, it is better tiiat we suffer
i them to dig ten millions ol graves and hide
I within them the ten millions ol Southern people
micolllncd and forgotten, than tiiat we, with our
own hands, should dig the one grave tor our
sense of honor as a people, and live forever the
world-hated and sell-haling sentinels of its hope
less, wakeless death.
Bear up, then, my cuuutrytneri I And if it he
true that the Northern people so bate us that
tiny can continue lo look upon us and see our
cites burned ; our lands laid waste; our proper
ly taken ; our rich men beggared; our poor muu
starving; our young men buried; our homes
desolate; our old men pressed with griel; our
matrons aud maidens weeping; our pride smit
ten, and oiir arms surrendered; aud still demand
more—aye, that we shall pass under the domin
ion of the negro with our wise men denied even
a voice in our laws—why, let it he so! But, I
beseech you, let those whose hate demands the
h ail wrong hear also the turpitude ot inflicting
it. Do not take upon yourselves tiie crime ot
your own oppressiou. Do not give tiie murder
ous hate the fiendish gratification ot pniuling at
yoa m your woe the huger of scorn mid saying,
"Do not blame us 1—we only left the whole ques
tion to you, and you did ill” Bather every
where, ns you go out and ns you come in, let
your bold, firm, patient but tearless language lie
