THUKSDAY Ut>K\IU., AUG. 14,
THE SOUTH MISJUDGM*.
Some of the Radical papers still insist
that the people of the South cherish ha¬
tred towards the North, and towards the
Federal Government as administered, be
cause of the events and the results of the
■war. There never was a greater mistake,
aud it is indeed strange that any one
can make it, after considering the politi
cal course which the white people of the
South have pursued since the war.
Have any of our people presented the
name of a Southern man as candidate for
the Presidency? Have any of us even
asked for the nomination of a Northern
man who was opposed to the war? In¬
stead of doing so, have we not readily
supported, or declared our willingness to
support Union soldiers ? Did we not sup¬
port Gen. Blair in 18f>8, aud have we
not all the time been willing to support
Geu. Hancock? In 1872 did we not even
go much further than this, and support
Liberal Republican candidates for the
Presidency aud Vice Presidency, who had
not only been earnest and consistent sup¬
porters of the war for the Union, but who
had favored the odious and unjust Recon¬
struction measures of C- ngress? Wo co¬
operated with this Liberal Republican
party, too, on a platform of their own
making; but it was a platform which as¬
sured ns of their purpose to check the en¬
croachments of Congress on the rights of
the States and the people and to remand
the Federal Government to its constitu¬
tional limits.
But there is one class of Northern poli¬
ticians to whom the people of the South
have not yet become reconciled, and to¬
wards whom reconciliation and forgive¬
ness would he a virtue exceeding Chris¬
tian charity. We refer to the gang of
carpet-bag adventurers who flocked to
the South after the war was over to “re¬
construct" us in such a manner as to put
the Southern States under the rule of ne¬
groes and vagabond Northern politicians
—to exalt ignorance over intelligence—to
make the vicious law-givers for tho virtu¬
ous and refined—to place all property at
the mercy of those who owned none of it.
The Southern people cannot forgive those
who sought thus to insult and despoil
them in their defeat and helplessness, be¬
cause their partial success entailed upon
us evils which a generation cannot out¬
live; nor can they forget them, because
our oontiuuod impoverished condition and
the yearly demands of the tax-gatherers
Hre ever-present reminders of their ra¬
pacity and profligacy.
Towards tho people of tho North who
were our enemies in war, but who have
boeu and are our friends in peace, the
people of the South have none but the
best feelings. They are oven willing to
a shake hands across the bloody chasm”
with those who, having supported lato
measures for our humiliation and despoil¬
ment, now sympathise with us in our sad
condition and manifest regret for their
acts of wrong and outrage; and this was
most strikingly proven last year. But
we can entertaiu little hope of better
feeling or better action from Northern
politicians who last year would not even
support Republican candidates for the
Presidency aud Vice Presidency because
they received endorsem. nl and support
from the South. With such mou party
devotion or sectional prejudice must be
too strong for patriotic impulse or com¬
mon justice. They are evidently'bent on
nothing less than the continued subjuga¬
tion of tho South and tho perpetuation
of the aggressions of Congress and the
usurpations of the President. Tho people
of the South have not yet wholly surren¬
dered to politicians with such views and
purposes, and we hope that they will con¬
tinue to spurn any*‘loyalty” based upon
such a test.
“For tlio dog days I consider this re¬
quest decidedly cool;” “what is sauce for
the goose is sauce for the gander;” “this
is to my mind piling it on pretty steep.”
These classical expressions appear in an
official letter from United States Treas¬
urer Spinner to a New England hank. If
Grant didn't write letters and speeches
aud things so confoundedly well himself,
wo would advise him always to get Spinner
to do it for him.- Louisville Courier.
It is stated that Senator Ames, after
serving a term as Governor of Missis¬
sippi, and another as Senator in Congress
from Mississippi, is just now talking of
obtaining a residence” in the State; aud
even this he makes dependent on his
election as Governor by the people! lie
is, we believe, a sou of the late Hon.
Oakes Ames, who believed iu placing
everything “where it would do tin) most
good.”
Brigham's Economy. —According to No.
17 of Brigham Young’s household, the
prophet gives to each wife per month 6
lbs. of sugar. | lb. of tea, 1 liar of soap
and a few candles. Two calico dresses
must last one year. Besides, the wife is
forced to keep boarders and look out for
herself generally. At that rate of support,
we are astonished at the prophet’s mode¬
ration in marriage.

Newton Houhil
Athens, ' " K ' " *’ ‘’
Editors Sun: In accordance with my
promise, given you a few days since
(JolunibuH, I propone 1 to write down a few
•‘dots , „ in regard ,v. to the great . aaHembly . . of r
°
Georgia farmers , now convened m tlim old
and , honored . , city .. on ,, the hills. , ,,
From all parts r of - the .. State, . delegates , , .
, have come in for . the past twenty-four f
hours, whom are many of - our lead- ij
among °
ing planters and , agricultural • ix. i writers. i.
It is thought that nearly three hundred del
egates will be enrolled before the close of
(he session, over two hundred having al
ready reported themselveH.
The officers are pretty generally at their
pos’s. and the Executive Committee will
he id le to act with full ranks. Gen. A.
H. Colquitt, the able President of the As¬
sociation, is in the chair, and I am glad
to report that he opened the Convention
with a very appropriate and practical
speech. His vigorous and sensible sug¬
gestions were frequently interrupted by
the hearty applause of his delighted
hearers.
The first business in order, the appoint¬
ment of necessary Standing Committees,
was w ell attended to by Gen. Colquitt,
who selected the best and most intelligent
men for those positions. This step was
suggested by the fact, not always consid¬
ered, however, that very important mat¬
ters wore to be entrusted to their judg¬
ment, and action. This good beginning
indicates that the eutire session of the
Convention, unlike some of its pre¬
decessors, will be devoted to the dis¬
cussion of the most important practi¬
cal questions of the day, as regards the
interests of the planting community
throughout the eutire State.
Up to the hour of my leaving the Con¬
vention, for the purpose of getting this
letter off in time for publication on
Thursday morning, several reports had
been made by the committees appointed
at the Augusta Convention. The special
report endorsing the administration of
the late President of the State Agricultu¬
ral Association, Col. Ben. C. Yancey, was
still being discussed at the time of our
departure. The result of the discussion
is yet in doubt, and I therefore decline to
throw out any hints as to what may be
the Anal action of the Convention in ro
gard to tho matter.
There can he no doubt of tho impor¬
tance of the subjects to he discussed
during the present session, as your read¬
ers will readily see from the following
topics already announced : “Local Fairs,”
by J. M. Stubbs; “Negro Emigration,”
Ool.D. E. Butler; “IndustrialEducation,”
Prof. Le Broun of the State Collego;
“Laud and Labor,” Col. McKinley; “Ex
perimental Farms,” Dr. Pendleton; “Lime
for Agricultural Purposes,” Col. B. 0.
Yancey. Those questions, aside from auy
others that may arise, will keep the Con
vention fully occupied until Wednesday
night, the time of the proposed adjourn¬
I regret to loarn that the “Grand
is to wind up the labors of the
last day, as the drunken scenes of the
Augusta Banquet are HtiU vividly in my
mind, and I dread a reproduction of them
here. Intemperance has already cursed
our industrial and agricultural interests to
a fearful extent, and I most earnestly
to see a change for the better in
this direction, as I believe it to be our
hope of success in the future.

MU. CLAY IN THE SOUTH, 1S44.
Having allflded, in a previous commu¬
nication, to the Hon. Henry Cloy in
charge of the Montgomery Committee, I
hog to notice briefly an interview I had
with tho great statesman, while on tho
boat to Montgomery. My introduction to
him at the Mansion House, Mobile, dur¬
ing a public reception in February, led
way to some kind remarks, subsequently,
in my behalf, by Judge Thornton, late of
the Supreme Court of Alabama, who was
a warm personal and political friend of
Mr. Clay.
During one of the pauses between the
huzzas of the multitude as the boat passed
from landing to landing on the river, Mr.
Clay invited me to a seat beside him in a
somewhat retired part of tho cabin. He
remarked that he had read my paper, and
was pleased with its tone; that Judge
Thornton had said everything iu my favor
which it was possible for one friend to say
of another, and that he (Mr. Clay) felt
under many obligations for the service I
had rendered the Whig party, who were
aiming to advance the best interests of
the country by the measures they pro¬
posed to carry out.
In this conversation, Mr. Clay referred
to the trying necessity he was under of
saying new things to the audiences who
kindly greeted him on his journey,
his opinions had been so often
and circulated through the newspapers.
While he was truly grateful for tho
festations of respect far beyond his mer¬
its, they sometimes amounted to au
noyance which ho would gladly escape.
I replied, “that it was his own fault
these popular testimonials came
him. Had ho acted a less
and a le.ss beneficial part in the
of the country, supported by faculties
energies which he could have diverted
some other channel, if he had chosen
do so; had he not been so zealous
successful iu the spheres of action
which he had figured to the manifest
of the public; had he not by his
attracted the sympathies and gratitude
tlie people, and held them to him by
of character peculiarly his own, he
have been permitted to travel where
pleased, without being incommoded by
the roar of cannon, or the shouts of
multitude, or the preseuce of
at every town, to give him a
which no man since the days of the
President, and the triumphant visit of
Nation s Guest twenty years ago, had
experienced from the American people,
You cannot help yourself, Mr. Clay.
record is made up. Yon are in the
of the people, and you must submit,
at a sacrifice to yourself. No future

your services, a claim upon your

this boon, after so long a course of
usefulness. To yourself personally
office could bring more consideration
you have enjoyed in the past, and still
joy. As a good citizen, Mr. Clay,
must set an example of submission to the
people, even w -■bun they gather around
vou to shake hands, or when they speak
in conventions, or at the ballot-box.
When I had closed my remarks, Mr.
Clay looked kindly into my face, and
said—‘-You have uttered things so deli
eately J that I have no room to say a word.

A letter to the Savannah News from
Blackshear, Ga., reports the killing of a

by a white woodsman named Hiram Ben¬
nett, upon whom the negro had made an
assault with an axe.
We believe that we have already an
nounced that the State tux of this year is
4-10 of one per cent. The Comptroller
General has informed tax collectors that
he will insist on a strict compliance with
the laws in their collection of the tuxes
and settlement with the State.
The Dawson Journal says the Pope

sent out to work on the Georgia Western
Railroad, near the Fair Ground. In an
hour thereafter one of thorn was taken
sick with cholera morbus and soon died.
Another was also sick of tho same disease
and in a critical condition. The Ilerald
says it is believed that they were permit¬

their sickness. Both negroes.

of Henry. Dale, Coffee aud the upper
counties of West Florida. He reports
crops extraordinarily fine. Planters have
made a two-year com crop, and the cot
ton, as a general thing, is about as good
as the land can make. Everybody's

TO BE BUILT ON THE

1C* 3 * It Is proposed to build on the water
site ot the Palace Mills, a OOTTON
FACTORY for the manufacture of Cotton
Goods. The Capital .Stock will be 4-250,000,
which will include an ample floating capital.
The building and machinery will he erected
and arranged under the direction oi J. Rhodes
Browne, Esq. The building will be a sub¬
stantial structure, and the machinery of the
most approved patterns.
The capital of the public is invited to this
enterprise as one promising sure, speedy and
profitable results. No subscription will be
binding until 4200,000 is secured, when the sub¬
scribers will he invited to convene for the pur¬
pose of organizing the Company, and the work
will be commenced.
NO TAXATION, either State, County or
Municipal, attaches to this investment for
Ten Years. The BEST water power on the
river is secured; the warehouses of cotton are at
the door; the railroads radiate from the city to
every market tor the goods; and operatives are
soliciting employment. With such advantages
is it unreasonable to promise a profit oi 20 per
cent, per annum on the investment.
Subscriptions will be received at the Chatta¬
hoochee National Hank; the Banking House of
John King, Esq.; the Merchants and Mechanics
Bank, and the Banking Office of the Georgia
