OlH WASHINGTON LETTER.
[Special Correspondence of the Monxnro Nzws.) :
Washington, April 30. 1870.
In political matters there is joat now al-
most complete stagnation. The President
bM commenced his annual pleasuring; bj
w l,icb he frees himself from the cares of his
fit*6/e and (com the ban of protending to be
ioterrsttdin matters of which he Jcaoihi as
Jiul« m hi.t favorite trotter. Biding free over
r-ilroads, enjoying the hospitalities of faotel
keepers, supplied with horseflesh and dgan
If expectant office holders, who wonld not
ba “President of the United StatesT* Bnt
if the duties of the President are simply to
rnuoke choice iZufeuta# and drive fast horses,
There conld be found a man who wonld fill
the position bo well as Hiram Ulysses Giant?
Oar “gifted President" has interested him*
tel! in bnt one matter of national importance,
aud that the annexation of San Domingo. In
tb it he has been defeated. In the shape In
which this measnre came before Oongresa it
tm by long odds the biggest “ jab ” of the
aea*on. I do not think the San Domingo
ring proposed to divide with tha occupant of
the White House ; bnt I am completely at a
loss for the motives which indnoed the Presi
dent to personally lobby at the Capitol for
the adoption of the treaty. Of all the charac
teristics attributed to Grant I have never
heard ambition mentioned. Love ot ease, of
fine horses, of oigars, greed of money, and an
aptitude for accepting presents (when all
Height and express charges are paid), .he is
generally credited with. - His cbnduct in this
Sm Domingo business must, therefore, be
put down among the other enigmas ofhis
career.
$<j one looks now for a proclamation of
£ neral amnesty for some time to come—not
fore the next Presidential election, at least.
It is a well ascertained fact that the Presi
dent hud a message prepared recommending
to Congress the passage of guch a measure; \
and that it only awaited his signature; but
that the lies of j»uch men as Bollock and For-
dey as to the condition of affairs in the 3onth
induced him to withhold it. There are ssv-
•ml bills now before Congress for the remo
val of political disabilities, of which Senator
Koberthon’s is the most liberal. What their
fate will be it is impossible to say. The
Democrats in the House have again and
win a declared they wonld vote tor no more
personal bills and hilf-way measures; and
such Republicans as look to the New York
Tribunt for guidance will demand a general
a.unt>hty bill, excluding no one. llie ex-
lremjs.'s, on the other hand, want to keep the
white* people of the South from the polls as
long as ponaible, fearing that when the right
o( Miffmge ifi restored to them the days of
tbs R diral party will be nnmbered. Al-
to.’rtber the prospects for a general amnesty
proclamation are not very bright.
Vuq will have seen from the special dis-
pichert to various newspapers that Bullock
bsH no friends among tne Bohemians here,
llcfote he was “found out" he palmed his
fslxebooda on some of the correspondents,
but (heir glaring untroth hsving been almost
immediately exposed caused the victimized
"special*” to look upon the carpot-bag Gov
ernor oi Georgia with feelings far from kind*
ly Axide from this his looks have condemn
ed hioi with those whom ho had no oppor
tunity of victimizing. The successive de
feat* he has sustained in the Senate and
House hare caused universal exultation in
the reporters' galleries with one exception.
Ibis Holitary admirer of Bollock la an
Euglirthmio. who participated in, the John
Brown raid, was a freedom-shrieker, and is
now a woman’s rights advocate and a hanger-
on about the Washington offices of certain
Badicxl dailies. The same holds good of tike
prims of the country. Note' “ * *

civilization of the Border, and dwelt among
tbo tropic splendors of Brazil; bat, somehow,
neither of these inspired as with half .the
emotion Savannah had the art of coaxing from
oar boyish heart. And that early impression
has remained, in spite of hard combat with
tbe world, in spite of a dolling of the fanoy,
and spite of the fact that, in the whirl of
early feed nation, it was them we first knew
there were serpents in Paradise and sharpen
in the South. Luckily, though, oar particu
lar sharper was from abroad—from New
England. He was classed with the genus
••drummers,’’ and ran a very heavy, schedule
on sewing machines. Tbe fellow’s tongue
waa glib, and his impudence as unbounded
os oar credulity was infinite. He spoke as
if Rothschild was his uncle and New York
his appanage. He knew James Gordon Ben
nett, and promised to write him a letter in
our behalf whioh would make that gentle
Scotchman's coffers fly open to the touch of
a pen. As the fellow spoke, we were borne
on a journalistic wave dean to the top of
some blessed Aarat in Georgia. Day =i *
day did this magnificent “drummer" < _
up visions which hinted of absolute triumph.
Bat si last he was oruelly dissolved all of his
wizard *work. He toarded a small loan. Prom
the avaricious nook of oar poor little pocket-
book we fished ap a ten dollar gold piece
and petit in his. palm, so itchingly extended
toolntohit. He promised to repay in a few
hours, bat, from that day to this, oar sewing-
machine friend is reported missing. .14 by
some chance, he should see these words, let
him take them as a receipt in full.
Oar seoond visit to Savannah was not b(
pleasant as the first It was ju«* alter Lee’i
surrender and the capture of Hr. Davit.
There were too many insolent bummers and
too many whitewashed trees. Even the
shrubbery had been subjugated, and the live
oaks wore their Yankee pantaloons with a
very subdued air. There was* too much of
sorrow or utter devastation to provoke each
gleesomo thoughts as had come of old when
we first stood on the wharves of the pleasant
and then onponqaered city, wonde: '
her queenly station, while the river, like a
S onorch, poured his libations at her feet
at, in spite of tbe sorrow and in spite of
the tremendous agony in every household.
Savannah still had a beauty and an attraction
peculiarly her own.
"We thank God that an opportunity was re
cently presented by the Press Convention to
revisit the Forest City, which jre have always
loved. Many.old sights and soon^s of twelve
years ago were absent or changed; but Na
ture stfl! survived, and the Northern irrup-
tion had not marred the sun, ruined the
bounteous foliage, or perrerted tha hearts of
ths people; • It ! wai gratifying to' -perceive,
likewise, that evidences of thrift; prosperity
and happiness were abundantly distributed,
promising a future less drowsily captivating,
oat imr more powerful than the past And
yet the old “plantation manners,” ao offen
sive to Yankee cuteneas, jobbery and chicane,
are atill prevalent The individuality of
Southern hospitality remains, though a stur
dier relish for material things than once pre
vailed has come in with another epoch. It

[From the Macon Telegraph. ]
SAVANNAH.
We suppose there will be v$ry many elo
quent deliverances on the above text for the
next ten days.
Certainly the theme is -worthy all that can,
or could be said, for a most generous hospi
tality was showered upon their visitors by
the citizens of that place. Their refined,
courteous and never-resting consideration and
attention to their gnests of the press, are
worthy all the grace and fervor of the most
glowing pen that was erer handled. For onr
share of these delights we are profoundly
grateful. We shall oherish their remembrance
while life lasts, patting them away in the
casket of memory’s most precious relics.
It fa too late, now, to essay any detailed
account of tha meetings of the two Press As
sociations, and the festivities connected
therewith. We have only this to say : That
Savannah did fall honor to her ancient re
nown as an entertainer—that her people,
through their representatives, made no balk,
and spared no pains in the pleasing doty of
entertaining their visitors, and that she
boasts, as the reward of her energy and
business tact, a more substantial improve
ment since tbe war, with one exception, than
any city in the South. We do not know,
anywhere, a more rapid and satisfactory re
covery from war’s paralysis. New houses are
going np with the rapidity that marks the
existence of prosperous fortunes; and real
estate, even in the suburbs, fa held at figures
scarcely credible to those who knew its value
evious to the war. To one who first saw
vannah in 1861, and who now revisits it,
the change can hardly be realized. We saw,
and apeak of these improvements with great
satisfaction. They add to Savannah’s wealth,
but they aggregate Georgia’s riches
That result should stand first
and strongest in the aspirations
•very true son of the State. We have, thank
Heaven, never felt any jealousy toward any
section of Georgia. It is a pity that so petty
a passion should find a place in any man’s
mind. We nsednot to like some of Savannah’s
ways, but that prejudice is well nigh dead
everywhere in the State. If there lingers a
ipark of it now, especially among those who
have 8o lately said good-bye to her paths of
pleasantness, we shall be grievously disap
pointed.
The verdict against Savannah, in former
days, was the vague one of “swell-head-
ism. ” As onr friend Gen. W., of Augusta,
so pithily and perhaps feelingly said, at the
Press banquet, that must now be revered by
the up-eoantry folks who were on the Fort
Pulaski excursion. If a fellow feeling makes
os wonderous kind—and we hold it an
axiom—then indeed is that last citadel of

SAVANNAH HOSPITALITY.
It was our good fortune to be one of the
recipients of munificent hospitality bestowed
npoD the gentlemen of the press recently
gathered in council in the Forest City. To
, cay that onr reception and entertainment
were princely but feebly and truthlnlly ex
presses the matter. Railroad authorities
and employes, her merchant princes, hotel-
keepers, private citizens—and laat, though
not least, her liberal, enlightened and gentle
manly representatives of her local press-
each and all vied with each other in their ef
forts to add to oar oomfort and pleasure—
making our advent a joy—oar stay a perpet
ual round of gaiety—onr departure a sorrow
and a regret!
It gave ns unfeigned pleasure to notice the
rapid outspread of oar metropolis, and to
note the many signs of the rapid strides she
fa making towards the front rank of Southern
commercial cities. Ranking before the war
•ms a fourth or fifth rate cotton port, the publio
spirit and enlightened policy of her commer
cial leaders—add to her great railroad system
—has placed tiavannah in the van, and, she
now rathe as the second great Southern cot
ton port, With the present progreesire spirit
of her far-seeing merchants and liberal-
minded business mao. Savannah is destined,
at no distant day, to ba the leading oity and
port al onr sonny lend; end her noble,
S onorous,, whole-souled citizens certainly
eserva the good fortune we predict for them.
Savannah fa the pride and boasts of Georgians
and her future will ever command their
warmest and best wishes.
