THE RELIEF QUESTION.
This question is agitating the public
mind in various portions of the State,
and pubiic meetings have been held in
several of the Counties to take some
aciion on the subject. It is one of
considerable importance, and should be
thoroughly discussed. The vicissitudes
of the war have left hundreds, nay
thousands, without tho means of paying
their debts, and it would seem to be the
refinement of cruelty to drive them to
(he wall, at this time. A spirit of for
bearance ami a willingness to grant the
utmost possible time to debtors, should
govern creditors ; and 'thus the weight
and responsibility of indebtedness might,
I . some degree, at least, be relieved,
and parties be enabled the better to
work out their redemplion.
In the Georgia Enterprise is found
an extract from the charge of Judge
A. M. Spear, of the Flint Circuit, to
the Grand .Tnrv of the Superior Court
of Newton County, which we append
here n-ld commend to the careful atten
tion and consideration of our readers
generally. It contains suggestions
worthy of adoption, and which do credit
to their distinguished author*
And, now gentlemen, in concluding
this charge, 1 beg leave for a moment
to add a word or two on a subject that
is now agitating, to a considerable ex
tent, the public inind. 1 refer to the
question of the indebtedness of the peo
ple. It does not become me to suggest
legislative remedies for these troubles
from this position—to give my views
upon questions whose constitutionality
may become in time subject matters of
judicial settlements in the courts. All
these I pass by. I simply point to the
Startling fact that all the taxable prop
erty of Georgia, approximating seven
hundred millions in 1860, lias, by the
results of war, been reduced two hun
dred millions. And yet. a large quan
tity of the ante-war indebtedness still
remains unpaid. By far the largest
portion of this loss lias fallen upon the
agricultural classes of our State. When
men, prudent, industrious, and debt
paying—have thus, by the calamities
of wi»r and the action of the military
force, had two-thirds and often more of
theif estate swept away without fault
upon their part, should it not appeal, in
language eloquent in its justice, to
tSiose of our creditor class, who still
command this Indebtedness of our peo
ple? To, the credit of our commercial
classes, it may be said that they lmve re
sponded liberally and promptly, I learn,
to their debtor class, ruined by the war.
And we must hear in mind this creditor
class live in a section from whence we
might have anticipated the least favor
to onr people. But so far from mani
festing this spirit of unkindness, the
Northern merchant has, I learn, in a
majority of cases, compounded liberally
with his debtors here, and even extend
ed aid to him to resume business. Shall
our home creditors do less?
Shall it he said that after having
passed together through the fiery trial of
this war —emerging from it with broken
spirits and shattered fortunes—onr own
people are to hunt down the unfortunate
debtor, and drive, by cruel exactions, his
family from the desolate, flame-scorched
walls that the rapacity ol war has spared
him ? I trust not. I earnestly recom
mend through you, gentlemen, to the
people of this county, a spirit of forbear
ance, of kindness, of justice to the
debtor class—a spirit of settlement and
compromise that will breathe new life
into our failing energies, nerve anew the
spirit sinking under a hopeless load of
embarrassment, that will be felt in all
the Avenues of trade and industry, and
gradually lift our people to comfort and
prosperity. This policy will bless not
only the debtor class, the people, the
country, and its industry, but it will re
flect in return upon the creditor, and
confer upon him, it may be, amid the
deep shadows of life’s last lingering
hours, a sweet consciousness of duty
uone—of kindness to his fellow man,
that he would not exchange for all the
dross of earthly treasures.
PRIME
“Nail Them to the Goontuh.”—
Under the above caption, the Savannah
Republican presents its readers with a
batch ol dispatches, appearing as “spe
cials from Savannah" in the Cbicngo
Journal t
Savannah, Ga., Sept. B.—The editor
the Republican paper has received an
anonymous letter, warning hint to sus
pend publication and leave the State.
Onr informant states that a military
guard has been ordered to take up their
quarters in the building for its protec
tion.
Hon. A. 11. Stephens has been offered
the Mayorship of the city.
Savannah, Ga., Sept. 10.—-There is a
rumor afloat that General J. C. Breck
inridge will shortly return to this coun
try and settle in Charleston, South Caro
lina.
An attempt was made to burn the
Rejmblican newspaper building last
night, which signally failed, the military
frightening tho incendiaries away.
The Republican, in commenting on
these specials, pronounce them to be
“unmitigated falsehoods.” “They do
not contain a word of truth—are wholly
destitute of foundation. The editor of
the Republican has not received any
warning to suspend publication—no
military has been placed over this estab
lishment. None has been needed, and
there is no probability that any ever will
be. No attempt has been made to burn
the Republican office.”
The object of such dispatches as the
above, will he at once perceived by every
thinking mind. It is, first, to create the
impression at the North and in the West
that we of the South are still “unhar
monized,” and tho sworn enemies of all
Northern men, and ultimately to assist
the Radicals in the elections soon to he
held. Similar lying dispatches have
been sent from Louisville and other
points South—all having the same ob
ject in view. Credit is due the Repub
lican editor for the promptness with
which he has given the lie to the Jour
nal’s Savannah specials.
Apropos, the Macon Citizen publishes
the following item, as furnished to the
Pittsburgh Chronicle "by its Georgia
correspondent, said to be one Eberhart,
superintendent of the freed men’s schools
in this State :
That murders of freedmen and other
outrages upon them still continue. In
one county four ireedmen were found
murdered at a single point. A olergy
man informs him that in another county
five were found murdered in one place,
and in still another, six freedmen were
found hanging to a tree, with a label on
a stick near them bearing the inscrip
tion, “A Free Transportation to Cuba.”
The freed people's church in Jones
boro was.destroyed by fire a few weeks
ago, the work of a white incendiary ;
and there is a gang of jay-hawkers in
that locality which keeps both whites and
blacks in a state of terror by their
atrocities.”
Such, remarks the Citizen , is a speci
men of the stuff that these Radical
emissaries transmit to their brethren,
North, in order to keep up the Freed
men’s Bureau in the South, under the
plea oj' necessity tor still further protec
tion of the negro.
An Interesting Package.—The
Richmond Examiner of the 18th instant
contains the following:
A. Holt, Agent of the Southern Ex
press Company, has in his possession a
package which was forwarded from New
Orleans in May last by one of the
agents, and since which time it has vis
ited nearly every office in the country.
The package contains the photograph of
the “lost damsel,” who has
“No one to love her,
No 1 to kurress.”
And although the picture has been ex
hibited in New York, Philadelphia, Cin
cinnati, Boston, Wilmington, Charleston,
Augusta, Macon, Atlanta, Mobile, Mont
gomery, this city, and other points,
the ownership has not been estab
lished. The Wilmington agent is try
ing to fasten the thing on Boston, but
the agent of the last city denies the
soft impeachment. O’Brieu, of theßich
mond office, has taken the rag off the
bush, made several additions, writes a
few lines, and turns the maid over to
the Bureau. The Bureau didn’t see
Ihe drawers, and no money being visi
ble, the package is again on the travel,
and is expected shortly to be in posses
sion of Frank Neely, agent at New
Orleans, who is expected to take a hand
in O’Brien's reconstruction. The cor
respondence that has passed between
the respective audits on the subject,
including that Wilmington poetry, will
afford excellent Sunday reading, and
will shortly be published. The package
cousists of a china negro baby minus
one arm, and without clothing. The
Boston office endeavored to reset the
arm, and charged $ 1.50 for his bungling
effort at surgery.' The clerks at the
office in this city, finding her naked,
furnished clothing, for which no charge
was made.
Personal.—The annexed personal
notice appears in the Lynchburg (Va.)
News, of the 24th instant: “Any person
knowing the whereabouts of Mrs. Susan
L. Newgeun, whose maiden name was
Mitchell, who went from this city to Au
gusta, Ga., and there married, but re
turned here in June last, will confer a
great favor by communicating with this
office at once.

The Late Cotton Order. —The
Atlanta lii’clliijehrer has been kindly
permitted to use the ann-xed letter, ad
dressed to uue of the Gate City’s long
established Cotton Factors. It conveys
information needed by tho planter at
this time. It is explanatory of General
Orders No. 21, and the objects contem.
plated are creditable to Brevet Major
General R. K. Scott:
H’dq’rs Ass t Commissioner |
Bureau R., F., and A. L., S. C., r
Charleston, S. C., Sept. 18. J
Mr. —:
Sir—l am instructed by Brevet Major
General R. K. Scott to inform you, in
in answer to your inquiries, that as
soon as the freed people are sufficiently
impressed with the idea that they can
not sell, or otherwise dispose of their
shares ot the crop in small lots, when
ever they see fit, before a general
division of the same may have been
made, he will issue such orders as will
permit the planters to go on and gin tho
cotton.
The circular, ns issued for instruc
tions to the officers of the Bureau, was
intended as a eheck to, and a protection
to both planters and freedmen from,
the petty pilfering which would he so
disadvantageous to both parties.
I am, sir,*very respectfully,
Your obedient servant,
11. W. Smith,
Assistant Adjutant General.
