Grant. “ Watch over the preservation of the Union with zealous eye, and indignantly frown upon the first dawning of every attempt to alienate any portion of the Country from the rest, or to enfeeble the sacred ties, which now link together the various parts.”—Washington’s Famwei.l Address. The Policy of President Grant. The newspapers arc indulging very freely iu speculations as to what will be the policy of General Grant, when he assumes the control of affairs as President of the United States. A portion of the Georgia press deserve commendation for a sensible determi nation to patiently await the dovelopj ment of events, and not gibbet him in advance. WHilo this course is clearly their policy, and likewise their duty, we are constrained to compliment them, because of late years so few edit ors have acted with real good judg ment, that a note should be made of every improvement. What these jour nals mean by’ giving General Grant “a fair trial,” we are left to conjec ture. It can hardly be possible that they expect as much and will accept no less from him, tlian they’ would have expected and required of Mr. Sey mour, if he had been elected Presi dent instead of General Grant. In other words, we cannot conceive it pos sible that they have so low an esti mate of General Grant’s character, as to deem him capable of accepting a Republican nomination on a well de fined platform, and, after his election, to plumb his official action by the plat form of an antagonist. They have studied his character to little purpose, if they suppose his name is Andrew Johnson, or that his is the character of a demagogue. Even if it were, Johnson’s fate would furnish a timely warning, instructing him to avoid the latter’s errors. But surely the apparently kindly disposed press of the State indulge no such unreasonable and exacting expec. tations of Geveral Grant as those we have just referred to. If they do not, and are willing to concede the ques tions settled at the polls on the 3d inst as settled, and to abide by the deci, sion—then, our word for it, they will find a true friend in the President elect, and we shall have a Grant party in Georgia, embracing the ablest, best, purest and most conservative citizens of the State. In order that we may arrive at some thing like r. correct estimate of the probable policy of our next President, we reproduce his Letter of Accept ance : Washington, D. C., May 29,1868. To General Joseph R. Hawley, President Na tional Union liepublican Convention: In formally accepting the nomination of the “National Union Republican Conven tion” of the. 22d of May, instant, it seems proper that some statement of views beyond the mere acceptance of the nomination should be expressed. The proceedings of the Convention were marked with wisdom, moderation, and pa triotism, and I believe express the feelings of the great mass of those who sustained the country through its recent trials. I endorse their resolutions. If elected to the office of President of the United States, it will be my endeavor to ad minister all the laics in good faith, with econ omy, and with the view of giving peace, quiet and protection everywhere. Tn times nice the present it is impossible, or at least emi nently improper, to lay down a policy to be ad hered to, rigid or wrong. Through an admin istration of four years new political issues not foreseen are constantly arising, and the views of the public on old ones axeconstaidly chang ing, and a purely administrative officer should always be left free to execute the will of the peo ple. I have always respected that will, and always ’liall. Peace, and universal prosperi ty, its seoucree, with economy of admisistra tion, will lighten the burden of taxation, while it constantly reduces the national debt’ Let us have peace. With great respect, your obedient servant, U. 8. Grant. New, that the election is over, we ask our citizens to read this admirable letter carefully. Although short, it is overflowing with suggestive points. 1. He characterizes the proceedings of the Convention as “marked with wisdom, moderation and patriotism,” and further expresses the opinion that they express “ the feelings of the great mass who sustained the country through its great trials.” Could an endorsement of a Convention or a platform be fuller or more complete ? Again, he says ho will “endeavor to administer all mws in good faith.” Does not this necessarily imply the administering and sustaining the Re construction laws of Congress, and the recognition and support of the State Governments, created by virtue thereof? He furthermore averts that he will give “ protection” everywhere. This can mean nothing else thtw that one I party shall not annihilate the other in any Sta to of the Union, by any system of proscription or violence ior pojitical opinion’s sake. In addition, he considers the Presi dency “ a purely executive office,” and dcsirol to-be left free to * exo cute the will of the people,” as expressed by Thdir Representatives- But the cdhtroliing and noblest sentiment of the letter is General Grant’s yearning desire for peace. In this wc are with him, heart and soul. As we have said every day since the election, the Southern peo ple can secure this blessed boon at once by making peace at home with their neighbors, and by recognizing what has already’ been done as binding. This will disarm the Julians, Ashleys, and the other hot-headed characters, and render them harmless. The people of Geor gia can do more to restore harmony, good feeling and prosperity, than Gen. Grant and all the officials at Washington combined, by pursuing this sensible and plain lino of duty. —-• • - Encouraging Peijury. That cxemplas/ guardian of the people’s morals and pattern of respet. ability, the Chronicle, exoprts its readers in this wise: “ Havn’t you paid your taxes ? Well, if you can’t pay all you owe, pay as much as is in your power to pay, and then take the oath with a clear conscience. Don’t hold back on frivolous pretexts,” and more to the same purpose in regard to registering for the coming city election. Now, the Chronicle directly ad vises the citizens of Augusta to com mit perjury. The meaning of the advice is plain : If you don’t want to pay your taxes, don’t pay them, but go forward and swear that you have paid them; if you have paid a part, swallow the oath as it stands, never, theless—swear ’you have paid the whole. If it was inconvenient for you to spare the money, you may, “ with a clear conscience,” swear that it was “ out of your power” to pay, because you wanted the money for another purpose. Such are the Chronicle’s ethics. It will be very hard to persuade any body that he is an honest man, who, holding property, will swear that it is not in his power to pay the taxes upon that property. We have heard of prop erty sold for taxes elsewhere, but, for tunately for Augusta, there is very lit tle property in this city which is not worth the taxes due upon it; and we make this proposition to the property holder who Is tempted to swear that it is-out of his [tower to pay his taxes: if he wilL-soU his property for the amount of taxes due upon it, we will find men who will take it at that price. Let no man with a “conscience” pay any regard to the counsel of the Chron icle. If he follows its advice, and his conscience does not become wholly callous, from habitual reading of that paper, he will find it will hurt him some. —« The Radical Faction. —Much has been spoken and written about the “ Radical faction” in Congress, and the fact adverted to that General Grant was not its first choice for the Presi dency. Those familiar with the history of the Republican party know that this faction never obtained its first choice for the Presidency except, per haps, in 1856, when Fremont was the candidate. Seward and Chase were their men in 1860. In 1864, they made open war on Lincoln until the vqice of the people awed them into silence. Andy Johnson was put on the ticket for the Vice-Presidency by what wils termed the “ advanced Rad icals.” This class of politicians have never controlled in the counsels of the party except when the indiscreet poli ticians of the South have furnised them the capital upon which to operate. It is time such foolishness should cease. The Reward for Ruffin’s As sassin.—We are pained to see that some of the Democratic press censure Governor Bullock for offering a reward for the apprehension of the assassin of A. G. -Ruffin. Some of them go out of their way to misstate the circumstances of his death, assert ing that he was killed during a riot. Such is not the fact. Everything was quiet, and his assassination was as atrocious as was that or zvolbAH *M | Lincoln by J. Wilkes Booth. All the facts were promptly forwarded to the Governor, and if he had failed to issue this proclamation, offering a reward, he would have been recreant to his highest duty as Chief Magis trate of the State. We believe that the Governor has offered no reward for the arrest of the slayer of any person killed in a riot. • ■—— Impeachment.—The Columbus Sun advocates impeachment because Gov ernor Bullock offers n, reward for an assassin. Desmuable.—General Reynolds, commanding in Texas, reports that since tl)e close of the war, there have been officials’ reported to him, as oc curring in uat State, seven hundred and stety-ofte Rieing of whites by negroes, and four hundred and sixty-four being of negroes by whites. The utter worthlessness of the civil authority is shown by the fact that on/y one person has been Kung against this startling record of murder. The General says it is im possible to get the courts to do justice iu behalf of negroes, where the of fender is a white person. , Not Good Policy.—The worst misfortune that could liefal the South ern States would be a rupture be tween Gen. Grant and Congress. There can be no doubt that if John son hail been less bull-headed, and more reasonable, there would have been less bitterness and fewer harsh acts of Congress. Violence is not statesmanship, nor unreasonable te nacity wisdom. In a republic, all should yield something for the good of the whole. A Brilliant Flank Movement. — General Grant has shown his good sense and modesty by flanking the many bores who menaced him with a public reception on his return to Wash ington city. He arrived there quietly on Saturday evening last, and sat quietly’ smoking a cigar in his own house, before it was known by the flunkeys, who were on the qui vive, that he had left Galena. Huzza for Grant, Peace and Prosperity. Not'Much Benefit.—Some of the Democrats hint at the removal of Gov ernor Bullock by impeachment. They would jnake much by placing Hon. Benjamin Conley, Resident of the Senate, in the Gubernatorial Chair. Upon reflection, wc rather guess they would not relish the change. Besides, it may not be healthy for the present Legislature to undertake the job. —American sleeping cars arc to bo introduced on German railroads. Letter from the State Capital. Keeping up the Wind—City Election—The National Republican—The Capital—State Road—The Governor. Atlanta, Ga., Nov. 11, 1868. Editor Republican : Since the election we have had a comparatively quiet time at the Capital; however, the excitement has not entirely subsided, apparently. Upon waking every morning the city papers are at hand, and, of course, the first duty is to read the news, and not uufrequently we find many and urgent calls to the Y. M. D.’s, “to meet promptly at this p. m. Business of great importance will come before you.” The laugh conics when one reflects how often such “calls” appeared previous to the 3d instant, and that the present ones are merely to keep up the wind. It is all understood. Very few ever at tend. LOCAL. The Democracy have settled upon a portion of the ticket they will vote at the city election in December. Query ? Is it not strange that the cry about, fraud, in the recent election in this Stale, on the part of the Dem ocratic press, is scarcely heard now ? It is certainly not consistent with their former course. THE REPUBLICAN. The readers of the Republican arc glad, but not at all surprised, to know that the little quasi threats which it has been the recipient of recently, has not debarred its able editor from con tinuing its publication, and we still expect the National Republican to live on and prosper in its good work, to engage in many more Presidential canvasses, lending its great influence to the right, and coming out victorious in the end. the CAPITOL. The new capitol building is pro gressing rapidly, and when completed there will be elegant quarters for the Governor, the various officers of the State, Assembly, etc. It will, no doubt, be ready for the Legislature by Jan uary. VISITORS. I notice in the city Hon. Foster Blodgett of Augusta, Senator Harris of Newton, Mr. Caldwell of Troup,' Speaker McWhorter, and several other distinguished Georgians. state road. A few of the papers of the State have attempted to find fault with the management of this great road, but all have signally failed thus far; their mean little utterances are of no im portance, and clearly show the game they are playing. The people are satis fied with the manner in which their interests are cared for by its able and efficient Superintendent —they know that the expenses w , the road every way have been largely reduced, and at this season when the business of the road is lighter than at any other time almost, it is unusual for so large a sum as Ticenty-five thousand dollars to be paid into the Treasury. This amount was placed there by Col. Hul bert, the receipts for October. If re flects great credit upon its manage ment .

C., Nov. 7, ’OB. General Grant is still determined to avoid being lionized. Several organ izations in this city, spurred on by a few individuals desirous of making themselves conspicuous, had made ex tensive arrangements to getup a grand ovation upon his arrival here. The leading spirits studied over their little speeches and wrote to find out when the object of their adoration would arrive. They were informed, not directly, but through General Dent, that he was to leave Galena on Thurs day last, and it would lie impossible to state at what time he might reach Washington; moreover, that ne wished to avoid any demonstration, upon his arrival. Inc committees concluded that the opportune moment would not come before the middle or latter part of next week, and made their arrange ments accordingly. Not to be fore stalled, however, and surcharged with speeches, they’ resolved to deliver themselves at once, and, on Friday, Grant was congratulated by proxy, through his staff. Their mortification, upon learning, this evening, that Grant was smoking a cigar very quietly at his residence in this city, can be im agined. The President elect dreads the ordeal through which he will have to pass between this and the 4th of March next more than he did the cam paign, and even more than the respon sibilities he will soon assume. He left Galena purposely to avoid an expected raid of visitors there. It is estimated that not less than five hundred “prom inent politicians” started for Galena immediately after the result of the election‘was known, to give advice and seek favors of the coming man. He not only flanked this batch of as sailants, but also the committees of “prominent citizens” at different points along the route to Washington. It is a pity to lose so many patriotic speeches, but the General’s personal friends here console themselves with the fact that he has shown great stra tegic powers, if not positive genius, in thus avoiding political bores. If he steers as clear of Cabinet-makers in the future, his Administration will, doubtless, be a success. The question of reconstruction is now in away 1 o be speedily disposed of. But the Republican party can not yet fold their tents; a great work is yet to be done—and that is to make this country a Republic in fact as well as in name. This, prominent leaders say, will not be the case so long as any State makes any distinctian as to race or color. This can only be accom plished by an amendment to the Con stitution. It is believed Judge Kelly, of Pennsylvania, will take the initia tive in this matter early in December by proposing an amendment that will enfranchise the colored man in all the States. Os the success of this move ment there can be but little doubt; such an amendment would require the assent of the Legislatures of twenty nine States to become a part of the Constitution. Colored men now. vote in nineteen States, viz.: Maine, Ver mont, New Hampshire, Massachusetts, Rhode Island, Wisconsin, Minnesota, lowa, Nebraska, Tennessee, North Carolina, South Carolina, Georgia, Florida, Alabama, Louisiana, Missouri, Arkansas, and West Virginia. They will vote in three other States —Texas, Mississippi and Virginia—as soon as readmitted. The recent elections have given the Republicans the Legis latures in Connecticut, New York, Pennsylvania, Ohio, Indiana, Illinois, Kansas, Michigan, Nevada, Oregon and California —thirty-three in all four more States than required, pro vided the movement is acquiesced in as a party measure. Under certain property qualifications, colored men now vote in New York and New Jersey. It is believed by the advo cates of this measure that the Fortieth Congress will cover itself all over with glory by seizing upon the present opportunity. If there were no restric tions upon the colored men voting in New York, the country would be spared the hmniliatiou cf seeing men like Fernando Wood and John Morris sey in Congress. You will have observed by this time that, as I predicted, the rising in Cuba has proved to be a more formidable affair than the brief telegraphic news doled out from that Island seemed to indicate. Agents of the progres sive party have already arrived in this country, seeking aid of our citizens, and to strengthen the hands of those who favor annexation to the United States. It is believed all but the old Spaniards are inclined to favor this scheme. • The Freedman’s Bureau will probs- . bly cease to exist after the Ist of ’ January, 1869, in compliance with , the law. General Howard, at this time, sees no necessity for continuing ’ the organization after that period. , The capacity and the disposition of i the Freedmen has been fully tested, ] and the most favorable reports come here from every State. Under Grant the hands of their oppressors will bo removed, when they Will have fall opportunity to work out their own salvation. The Government will doubtless provide for a continuance of the present school system, and keep a watchful eye upon the Freed men. There is no real foundation for the reported removal of Secretary Mc- Culloch. That gentleman has, time and again, told the President he would resign whenever requested to do so. Mr. Johnson would doubtless like very much to signalize his out going by doing something more to shake the moral sense of the commu nity. But ho is restrained by the fear of Congress. Impeachment is not dead—the case only sleeps, and it would take but very little to revive the old proceedings. The Presidential election being out of the way, the case, if recalled, would hasten the exit of the great apostate into igno minious retirement. The attempt to create a panic in New York immediately after the election has already proved a failure. Gold to day is lower than at any time since January last, and the Government has only’ disbursed thus far about ten and a half million of tho gold interest on the public debt. Wise men are beginning to put their homes in order, preparatory to re sumption of specie payment. This end will be attained by the 4th of July next, leaving the Democratic party without a single plank upon which to build even a theory. Previous to the election I put down New York as certain for G rant and Col fax, “provided there was no fraud prac ticed.” Seymour has nominally in the State a majority of less than 8,000, while in New York city alone more than twenty thousand fraudulent votes were cast, to say nothing of Brooklyn and the towns along the Hudson. These ■ frauds are to be investigated and Hoff man, the bogus Governor elect, may possibly be ousted from his seat. These allegations of frauds are based upon substantial facts, capable of being proven before any Court of Justice. The Capital is duller to-day than at i any time since the war. The Hotels and Boarding House are deserted, and ; the few Democrats to be found in the ; Departments are packing their carpet bags, preparatory to their final exit on 1 the 4th of March next. ; * Three hundred clerks have recently been discharged by Secretary McCul • loch, and seventy-five more will receive final papers during the present month. The President has not shown his head in public since the election.
