The sole object of the w riter is to lay the
fects stated in these coromdnieatfons before
those of the produoing class, who are so en
gaged that they hayre net the time or oppor*
jP tunity to gather them otherwise ; and did ho
think any intelligent reader of the News
oould possibly suspect him of the least de.
sire to engender any feeling of hostility on
the part of Labor against Capital, he would
immediately lay aside bis unskilled pen to
rust in its stupidity. He is too vvelbawar e
of the dependence of the one on the other,
and the vital necessity of a strict and %lo9e
alliance between them, in repelling the ag
gressions of those plunderers and dema
gogues whose turpitude would subvert the
Government to their own vile purposes.—.
I Capital, properly employed, is ihe .greatde-
veloper, life and support of every intfjrest :< ‘of
the Republic, and on it the common laber^of
the country is almost solely dependent^

It is now the imperative duty of every citizen
to be unsleeping on his watch, and most act:
ive in the guard of his rights. There is no
danger impending from the ambition of any
individual citizen, the peril of the Republic
lies in the vaulting aspirations cf those
whose purses lnive grown plethoric by prey*,
ing on the vitals of their country :n t-e su
preme hour of her necessity. They would
exultiDgly trample out all that is left of
American liberty, to accomplish the inordi
nate desire of elevating themselves into a
privileged class, • a pseudo-aristocracy.—
Gold is their god and their power, and fliey
wield it with a powerful force.
What are the superior claims of thesb men,
who, for years, have arroguutly sought, to
control the legislation of the country? When-
their poorer neighbors were battling aud
bleeding for the Union, they bought exemp
tion, and remained at home to extortion -on
the necessities of the country, and swindle
the public Treasury by. bogus Government
contracts. Luring the war, the Northern
capitalists, manufacturers, contractors and
shop-keepers, Instead of aiding the Qovtrny
ment, used every means in their power to ex*
tortion on it, and depreciate its se^nriiies,
that themselves might fatten thereon. They
forded the legal tender notes down to forty-
two cents on the dollar, at which’jthey^ob-
tained immense amounto of them by Jt^nislu
ing supplies for the army at enormous prof
its. Many of these .notes tv eye Converted
into fivo-lwenty bonds on which (lie people
are now paying, semi-annually, six per oent.
per annum interest in, jsqI*^ $ot content
with this, they have made their Congress
exempt these bonds from all taxation, and
In 1869, at their instigation, Congress
pledged, or attempted to pledge, the faith
of the United States to- the payment of these
bonds in ooiu or its equivalent, and to this
outrage the people have so' far tamely sub®
mitted. The Government. is now selling its
five per cent, bonds in Europe to raise fifty
millions of dollars in gold to pay the inter
est on these bonds Under their National
Bank law, any bond holder placing in the
Treasury, as security, say one hundred
thousand dollars in Government bonds—
which cost him, probably, less than fifty
thousand dollars, and on whioh he is still
paid annually six thousand dollars interest
in gold—receives ninety thousand dollars
of so-oallcd, nntioqal currency, and forthwith
proceeds, in approved WrI/ street tallies, to
betray ami prty upon the industry and pro
duction of the country,
One of the smallest farmers in Georgia,
toiling on bis one-horse patch, contributes
more, within himself, to the liquidation of
the National debt than all the millionaires of
New York City. To some, this may seem
a broad assertion, but it is a fact of easy
demonstration. The farmer by bis own la
bor rawstvo hundred dollar's worth of cot
ton which, shipped abroad, brings in return
two hundred dollars in merchandise, paying
into the Treasury some eighty dollars import
duties in gold, which goes to pay the interest
on the bonds in the pocket of the millionaire,
who produces nothing, adds nothing to the
material wealth of the country, and of course
contributes nothing to its support.
Slavery is the penalty of cowardice, and

Democratic principles grow out of the Con-
stitution, and cannot change while that Con-,
stitution lasts, They are based on a strict

Perhaps some readers will find, what they
may deem, insurmountable objections to the
mode of adjusting the currency herein sug
gested. Ifeo, the writer, though he feele
confident of the practicebility and advatages
of such an arrangement of the currency, ia
open to conviction, and would be glad to have
these objections plainly and fully stated by
any one who may entertain them. *7\
In conclusion, Mr. Editor, X will venture
to say, that the National Financial Systemr
isi probably, the most important and urgent
matter before the country : every man fetlt
the necessity of a speedy and equitable ad
juatment of the currency. This is the peoi
ptes'/Governraent, and why should the peo-
pje.holhftve their own money ? use their own
currency ? thereby stopping the enormous
amount of interest in gold, annually paid on
bonds the Government might at once pay off
in this peoples’ money. What better cur
rency would there be than one based on the
credit and faith of the Nation, and current
throughout the entire country.

IJflajfd I.flier From Catoosa Springs
The Finest Watering Place Sopth of
, .• Virginia.
, L O V EL V INCH) ENTS.
r\ Catoosa, September 14th, 1874,
-That Tur News should be slighted, was
never my intention: but then, you know,H
am so good natured that twice when my man
uscript was just completed, it has been ap*
pronriated by those as much interested t?
Catoosa and- less interested in The News*-
than is your correspondent. So confidential
letters have been confiscated, and ns thetimsr
iV
hia treasures removed one by one till only
his wife remains to cheer and brighten his
hearthstone; afflicted In body, perplexed in
mind, -looking forward to threatening horrors
too gloomy to contemplate. It ia a grand
sight to see such a man calm, peaceful,
cheerful, resting on the word of Him who is
“round about His people,” and trusting that
all will be well.
Such a one stood in our midst that day.
Thank heaven, the type of a Southern gen
tleman is not lost • Rod very near him waa
one of the lovliest types of Southern woman
hood. Blessings attend husband wife!
Wherever duty calls him, whether aiding and
directing the grand and humane brotherhood
this week assembled in Georgia, or later
representing his people in the great convo
cation of Churchmen in New York, all will
be done that mail may do to help a brother,
or to build up the House of the Lord.
There was not one in that little assemblage
who'fias not been tried in refining fires. Not
one whoisnot patiently and hopefully pur*
RtHng’fbe path marked out for him. Some
ofvis^rr^ just beginning the life task, but
whether fo tjie young bride so far from her
.native State, or her German artist husband,
making melody that moves and elevates the I
hearts of .all who listen to the weird sweet* j
ness of his violin (the perfect master of hlsi
perfect instrument), or to the young maiden
whose life seems floating on calmly, serenely
bright, and as lovely as a sunny summer
day, or to the young athlete who springs into
t.hq. arena to exert the manhood that is in
the greatest good to man, fighting,
dot watching, the battle of life, to each, u>
albof them, there seemed enough cf faith ami
hope 3brch to make life worth living, a
heaven worth attqj^ing.

of our departure draws nearer, tliere is bul
.lime for one brief note of parting to th.e
iortiest rale in (Ireland, and one chance to
arert the impending charge of neglect of my
home paper. "
The closing week of the season has beeo one
of the most delightful. The company has
been narrowed down, by a few days ol
ing weather, to a circle composed of the most
haraiouious and charming elements.
We have still all the pleasures of this most
celebrated of all Georgia watering plac s —
Ouly those are left who love Catoosa, ; ami
wbtreame here for rest and recreation, and
not to see and mingle with ihe promiscuous;
multitude usually congregated at summer re
sorts.
The attractions of the place are greater
than ever. Since Col. Hewitt comjieqced his
improvements and adornments here, more (
than forty thousand dollars have ^gen^ex^
pended in the most tasteful and judficloua-
manner,—the result of which is extremely
gratifying to all who have beeu acoustoraed
to oome here.
Nature wrought here with lavish hand;
her fair erection ia lovely indeed, and the
only danger waa that something of the pic*
tureaque might be aaorifioed to utility, but in
no instance haa this been done.
It is the same sequestered vale, and ia truly
a haven of rest to the weary and over worked
who come here to enjoy a summer vaca
tion.
Catoosa haa every right to claim precedence
in public favor over any resort this aide of
White Sulphur Springs In Virgiuia, and many
who have been aoouatomsd to frequent that
moat popular of all Southern resort*, claim
superior advantages for Catoosa.
Its location in Georgia, ita ease of access,
its nearness to the homes of business men
who cannot absent themselves during the en
tire season, and can run up to Catoosa fre
quently for a day's rest, are item* worthy of
consideration.
The merohant cannot in these June* risk R
trip of several daja from his counting-room.
At Catoosa there arc two mails north anft
south daily, and a telegraph office in the
building; the Catoosa depot on the Westero-
& Atlantic railroad is only two miles and a.
lmlf distant Good hacks, good teams and:
good drivers are always at hand.
There is not in all the known worldso
great a variety of mineral springs of superior-'
medicimfl properties in so small an area, anil
so prettily and pleasantly located*
The buildings ate extensive anil well ar-.
ranged. Six hundred guests can be comfor
tably provided with good rooms. The parlor,
ball room and billiard room were meant to
accouxoiate a multitude.
Tbe dining r^om is large, well lighted and
well-ventilated.
The tables are as neat as possible, the fur-,
nitbre is good, the linen is always fresh and
white, the glass, china and silver bright and
clean ; the provision liberal, the cooks skill
ed in their art; the bed rooms a re large and
very cleanly and comfortable. Col. Heweltt
qs -a polite and attentive proprietor—each
guest seems a favored one, for he looks after
a meeting of ihe people of Memphis,

spoke as follows in denunciation of the hor
rible massacre at Trenton, Teun.:

you owe to'the gallant dead who fell for the

horror of a particular crime; still less
to argue what is due from one race to anoth

led-as it deserves, but tbat belongs to the

neverfteeks concealment, wears no mask, and

peculiarly struck with tbe remark of the ne
gro who was called upon by one of the oom-
mitteeVaent to South Carolina, and who was
expeefed to give testimony which would in
volve Goneral Wade Ilamptonin the Ku-Klux
outrages. He was asked if he kflew Wade
Hampton, ffe said he did, and bad known
him since the time they were boys together.
They then s^id to him, “Do you believe he
haa been engaged in these Ku Klux out
rages!” “No, I do not believe it.” “Why
.don-6 you believe it?” “Because if Mars
Wade Hampton had been in it, it would have
4Teen the^white man. and not the negro, that
hfTtrbnlil have struck.”
The.negroes were not our enemies: why
should they become so? We are their
friends Yes, and the Southern men are tbe
onT^rfriend* they have to-day in any part of
the world. It becomes us to be their friends.
Every. SoBttravo. maa in his memory runs back
to the negro woman who nursed him!; to the
boy who hunted and fished with him: to the
man-Who first taught Igm to ride and to swim :
’^and as he grew to manhood, the oordisl wel

oPthat useful race which was the main
b^of our country when we stood in this
in, wbiciri believe God intended us to
py. If we have been diverted from such
fr^latfou, and if hostility has sprung up io
any, extent, it has been the work of those * in-
(\endTarie3 who have oome in to destroy the
nafaral'refrTlons'bf the races, and thus fo
menting a discord by producing the evils
which now exist in society. But, my friends,
.it rest? with yon, whatever be the result,, to
show lo theVworld ihat yon are incapable of
secret crime, that you hate the ma» who
wears a inask—.[applause]— and whatever is
necessary "for the pnblic'peace to do,, yon in
tend to do that openly and manfully. •
Now. then, let us see what is the necessa
ry future of these two races living together.
[Applause] They require the white man
to pro«ide tor them and protect them as much,
as they ever did, and 1 believe they will re
quire him to do so to the end of time. Now.
then, as to these white men who believe in a
war of races that the blwck may be extermi
nated, and 1 see in the future that is desirable,
I have no sympathy, [Applause ] The ne*
grees were my friends in tbe olden times.
They w.ere our protectors when our brave

was they who brought the Mississippi valley

valley,'iniwy opinion, ever be cultivated.
They are as necessary to us as we are to
them; ^nd that kind of relatiou existing be
tween fes, it is no reason why tbe prosperity
of the .future ahail not exceed that of the
-past. Rut 1 do not intend to trench upon a
question which every one has undoubtedly
formed His opinion. I would only say for
myself that as I cannot have hostility to these
deluded people, the only feeling of indigna
tion I have is agUn«t the white men who
have disturbed this relation bet ween us; who

the most satisfactory results. It imitates na

The
Only Known Medicine
THAT AT T1IK SAXE TIME
Purges, Purifies, and Strengthens
the System.
DR- TCTTS PILLS are composed of many ingre
dient*. rrominent among them are Sarbaiarilla and
Wild Cherry,so united as to act together; Ihe one,
through its admixture with other auhstances, purify
ing and purging, while the other i»strengthening the
system. Thus these Pills are at tbe some time a tonic
and a cathartic, a desideratum long soJght for by
medical men but never before considered. In other
wonl*. they do the work of two medicines and do it
much better than anr two we know of, for they re
move nothing from the system but impurities, mo that
while they purge they also strengthen and hence they
canve no debility aud ore followed by no reaction.
D R. TCTTS PILLS havea wonderful. Influence on
tbe bleed. Tftejwot only purif^ wfthorn weakening
it. but they remove all noxlou-t parti :les from the
chyle before it i* converted into fluid, and thiu make
impure Wood an utter impowfbillty. As there boo
debilitation, mo there i* bo nausea or *icknesa attend
ing tbe operat’on of tfah naff exeefleat medicine,
which nerer strains or torture* the digest ire nrjsins
but cause* them to work in a perfectly natural -man
ner ; hence persons taking them do not become pole
and emaciated,but on the eonlranr. whilf 4>1 impuri
ties are being removed, tbe combined action or the
Sarsajarilla and Wild Cherry purifies and iarigorates
the body, ami a robust state of health h the jtnuU of
their united action. Price Sicriil^a'tiw. Sold by
