fit a m C y VC\f^: MILL E Iri.O-IE'V iLLE TUESDAY. JAHjSUEY 30, 1872. Henry Clews and the N. Y- Press. Wc are in receipt of a pamplilet copy of a letter from II. Clews, to tlie people of Georgia,” wherein he tries to exoner ate hiruself from the charge of complic ity in the Bullock & Kimball frauds. At most,, he but shows that his fears of loss were early excited and the suspicion clung cluigto him to the end, all of which seems to us, rather more consistent with his guilt than innocence, though by no means conclusive. IIis other point, as to the faith of the State, plighted to pay his demands, wc will consider. l>y the same mail we received a copy oi the New York World, with blue pencil marks about the portion of the ‘‘final)*- cial ” article, respecting, “Georgia (Jml- it,” which are given below, premising that other New York papers, expressing similar sentiments, marked also, have come to many of the cditoriuws of the State, showing a purpose to appeal from the Government of Georgia to the peo ple of Georgia, through the subsidized press of (New York.* Here is the article from the World: The State of Georgia seems to be on the verge of placing its State credit in the rauks of the unprincipled carpet baggers ami dishonest scoundrels that seem to control legislation in the South ern States. This year about §700,000 of the Georgia old six per cent- bonds mature. A “ring” has been formed to run down the credit of the State for the purpose of buying its securities at a very low price, and the opening measure ol tiie programme is proposed by Mr. An gler, the State Treasurer, in the shape of forcing the holders to take new bonds worth 8-5 cents iu the market instead of 100 cents iu cash. In other words, Mr. Angler proposes not to pay the bonds according to contract, but to repudiate 15 per Cent, of the State’s obligations. This hypocritical cant about “honor,” and “credit,” &c„ is but a wretched ap peal to the pride and conceit of Southern chivalry, so-called, a mare play upon our vanity. We hope Governor Smith and the Legislature will not ba duped by it, out of one dollar of the State’s money. The “repudiation act” of 1871, doosn’tgo half far enough. The mere com pliance or non-complianoe with the let ter of previous Radical legislation, is not the true rule, that should determine the payment of claims against the State.— The Atlanta Sun lays down the true measure of indebtedness iu such cases, viz-: the value received by the State.— Wall Sheet well knew that the gang cf of robbers, w'ho had seized upon our State Government, plundered ail its treasure, and forged drafts upon her future revenues, in their own favor, were not the legitimate representatives of the State. To aid their thievish schemes, was to be "particcps criminis, entitling to no considerations of‘‘credit” or “honor,” A man of sensitive honor, would prefer .pecuniary loss to any un certainty as to the propriety of his own conduct. Aud this sentiment, these sharks seek to use, as a tecakness, to ex» tend their robberies. We object to Gov. Smith’s inaugural only lor the excessive emphasis with which he disclaims ‘repudiation.’ There are a few facts in this matter that are too prominent to be denied or ignored. The people of Georgia never did au thorize those claims. Federal usurpa tion had bound and fettered the State out of all free agency whatever, and this in violation of fho forms of law, as well as its substance and spirit—the Su preme Law. The imported cormorants, who hovered and covered the seats of Government, were interlopers, usurpers, who had no right iu morality, or equity, or by Constitutional interpretation, to pledge the credit of the people of Geor gia, or bind them hy contract. * Will the mere compliance with the ‘forms of law’ validate so stupendous a fraud l Does right aud wrong depend on the crossing of a ‘t,’ or the dotting of an ‘i’ ? Georgia was. in sooth, not a contracting part}* She was simply the oppressed victim of one of the contracting parties—of both perhaps. One of the parties fled from justice, failing to account with the other who, disappointed of his hoped for plun der, has the shameless audacity to claim that the victim, whom he had conspired to please, promised to pay him for cod*. spiring to fleece her. Those contracts, as claiming to bind Georgia, are simply null. If Georgia has had any “value received” from Henry Clews, Le ought to he paid just that amount and interest thereon, and no more. Clews asks if Georgia “is a sovereign State 1 ” There is intense sarcasm in that inquiry and a pregnant perticncy to the “Bond Question.” Ouee she was sovereign and glorious, but not whilst writhing in the joshes of Grant, Bullock, pJfvvs & Co. , Perhaps gho grows sovereign again. And when she docs put her sovereign f »ot on (he necks of domestic traitors, we hope she will close her sovereign ears tw the hypocritical syrens, towards the North Pole, who siDg of" honor ’’ for a consid eration. Death-bed Repentance. The famous Walpole, English Pre mier little over a century since, used to say, ‘‘Deny a mau an office and you make him a patriot,” Current history, as wsil as the past, continually demon- atra’es the tiuth of the proverb. Per haps there is no more striking illustra tion than that exhibited by a late chance President of the United States. A fu gitive Tennesseean occupied the seat once honored by Jackson. Lee and Johnson had surrendered their armies, by article* and convention. On the Confederate side, tbc compact was exe* cuted—their arms were delivered up, their forces disbanded. Andy Johnson broke the faith plighted by his Gener als, enforced proclamations unauthorized by law, and proceeded to “impoverish as well as to humiliate treason,” as he expressed it. Prominent Southern men stood, at Presidential levees, like trem bling felons, with petitions for pardon extended to the august Andy, whilst Yankee photographers prepared the dis gusting scenes for Northern pictorials. Radicalism preferred another leader, and Andy became a red hot patriot, defend er of the Constitution and champion of the South. The humble, grateful South forgot his crimes, forgave his treachery, accepted his championship. Some— (quorum pars non fui—If I forget tbee. oh, Jerusalem, may iny right hand for get her cunning ) And how is the case of the Treasurer of Georgia any better 1 Four years ago, ho was one of a band that labored stren- uously to commit a greater outrage than the mere forging of bonds,—to rob the people o their right of self-government— tho foundation upou which was based the whole superstructure of succeeding wrongs. Check Ly jowl with Bullock and Blodgett, he was borne into high place, on the same tide aud participated with them in the same frauds. The first election thereafter showed about 40,000 majority against Grant, which increased at each succeeding’ poll. The hand’ writing was very legible on the wall. A quarrel with Bullock left him without partizans, between the upper and the nether mill-stone, and, presto! he is a marvel of patriotic honesty, the protect or of the people, the defender of the Constitution, a thorough Democrat, as piring to re-election 1 We assail not bis private character, though we never knew a mau of moral principle, who had not good political principles too. Surely this man has no claims upon the Demo-, cratic people of Georgia. If he ha* uot reformed, he is a Radical enemy of the State. Ilis reformation, if valid, must rest upon repentance. Repentance, un der different circumstances, '^would com mand more confidence. Wo refer to these two individuals, not on their account, but for the sake of the principle involved and to protest against that excessive ‘“moseration,” which would reward the authors of those evils, from which the State is just uow so hap pily redeemed. “Let by-gones be by gones, which, truly interpreted, means, let the wrong-doers, with their wrong*, of the past, be buried from sight forever. Let perpetual anathemas rest on every one who is tainted wilh the foul treason to Georgia. Florida Constiiutisn. —The Legis lature of Florida has passed, by the le gal majority, several propositions for a- mending the Constitution of that State. One of these i* to authorize the people to elect Sheriffs, Clerks, County or Pro bate Judges, Tax Collector and Receiver. Heretofore the Governor appointed all eouirty officers. The people were per mitted to elect bailiffs only. We see little occasion for gvatulation,’ iu this. Nothing short of a clear wiping out of Harrison Ilecd, the Constitution and the rest of Radicalism in Florida will turn back the wheel of decline, in that land so peculiarly and wonderfully blessed of nature. week, in the House of Representatives, the subject oi'lfe entire ruin of tbc ship building interest in the United States The Thiers Government in France seems to be decidedly shaky. A recom mendation of the President was not ac cepted by tho Assembly aud he resigned in consequence. Great excitement in Paris was the result, and fears of anoth er revolution. The President was per suaded to revoke'his resignation the next day and quiet was restored. IIow about confidence ? Resignation of Governor Vance.— A special dispatch to the Wilmington Journal announces that Governor Vance, of North Carolina, has resigned the Uni ted States Seuatorsliip, to which he was elected by tho Legislature of that State, but from which he was excluded by the reconstruction acts of Congress. The election for his successor will take place on Tuesday, the 30th instant, the day preceding the adjournment of the pres ent Legislature. The Journal says there are some complications connected with this matter, but the editor is of the opinion that should the Legislature se lect some geutlenian not under disqual ification, he will be admitted to his seat. As the preference of theJTudical major ity in Congress, and not the wishes of the people represented, arc to be con sulted, would it not be well to ascertain before going into the mockery of another election who would be acceptable te the Washington junta.

They are of daily oc currence in our community, and the of fender almost invariably goes unpunish ed, because the prosecutor prefers to pass over the offence, rather than have the criminal committed to jail, at an ex pense of seventy five cent* a day to the county, and be himself compelled with his witnesses to attend tbc Superior Court, day after day and term after term, iu order to secure a trial and conviction. This delay is both tedious and expensive to the prosecutor and his witnesses, and often deters him from doing his duty to himself and the community, and the re sult is, that crime is encouraged and the outraged law seldom vindicated. This it the evil. Where is the remedy ? I au- swer, in the establishment of a Court with summary jurisdiction to try the perpetrators of such misdemeanors in- s/anter, that justice may follow swiftly on the heels of crime. The County Court meets this desideratum in our Ju diciary system, for it is open at all times for the trial of such offenders—the ac cused baviug the right to demand a Ju ry trial iu said Court, aud being entitled td a reasonable timo for the preparation of his case; but unless he demands a Jury, or indictment by the Grand Ju ry, the Court proceeds to hear evidence and to dispose of the case without fur ther delay. It may be objected that the establishment of this Court will en tail additional expense, in the way of taxes, on our overburdened people. 1 answer that the single item of Jail fees •aved to the eounty, will almost or quits pay tho salary of tho County Judge— for, (if I am correctly informed) the Jail fees of one prisoner, Edmund Gools by, (colored) amounted in 1S71 to the auug little sum of $275, and as there were three or four prisoners besides him in jail, on an average during the year, I thiuk we may safely estimate this one item of cost to the county, at uot less thau eight huudred or a thousand dol lars per annum. Besides the fees of the Judge of the County Court, in civil and criminal cases go into the County Treas ury ; and when we remember'that he has jurisdiction of all cases arising out of contracts or torts—where the amount in volved does not exceed one hundred dollars—of cases arising under posses sory warrants, the eviction of intruders, the foreclosure of liens, &e., we sie at once that the revonue which the county will derive from this source ia consider ably. And this conclusion is strength ened by the riefleetion, that the central location of the Court (at the county site) the) convenience of attorneys aud clients, will soon draw to it all the busi ness now done by the various Nutarys’ and Justice’s Courts iu the county, and ai the bill provides that he shall keep an accurate record of all such fees received by him, pay them over to the County Treasurer, and make a written report of the same to the Grand Jury—and as his salary depends’ on their action at the Spring Term, and they can withhold it, by merely declining to recommend the levy of a tax to pay it, there need ba no fear of malfeasance in office, if they do their duty, for he is emphatieal- United Sialc.i flag, i; might be said that L. ! effect of this agreeable tonic is comforting and ieouraging.

BROTHER, [Established J845. | Rochester, N. y, AST BfPAlTlSilET, The enthusiastic snpport so readily accorded to their enterprise, w herever it has been intro duet-d has convinced the publishers of THE ALDINE of the soundness of their theory that the American public wonld recognize and heartily support any sincere effort to ele vate the tone and standard of illustrated pub lications. That so many weakly wicked sheets exist bud thrive is not evidence that there is no rnarktt for anything better—indeed the success of THE ALDINE from the start is direct proof of the contrary. With a popula tion so vast, and of such varied taste, a pub lisher can choose his patrons, and his paper is rather indicative of his own than of the taste of the coun*ry. As a guarantee of the excel lence of thir department, tbc publishers would beg to announce during the coming year, specimens from' the following American ar tists : W T Richards, Granville Perkins, James Smiley, Win Hart, FOG Dailey,RE Piguet, Wm Beard, Victor Nelilig, Frank BeardTAug Will. George Smiley, Win H Wilcox, Paul Dixon. James H Beard, J Howe. LITSKAR7 DBPAItniENS, Where so much attention is paid to illustra tion and get up of the work, too much depend ence on appearances may very naturally be feared. To anticipate such misgivings, it is only necessary to state, that, the editorial management of The Aldine has been intrusted to Mr. RICHARD HENRY STODDARD, who has received assurances of assistance from a host of the most popular writers of the country, A Chromo to Every Subscriber was a very popular feature last year, aud will be repeated with the present volume. The publishers have purchased aud reproduced, at great expense, Jhe beautiful oil painting by Skis, entitled “Dame Nature's School.” 'The Chromo is 11x13 inches, and is an exact fac simile, in size and appearance, cf the original picture. No American Chromo, which will at all compare with it, ho. yet bsen offered at re tail for less thau the price asked for The Aldine and it together. It will be delivered free, with the January number, to every subscriber who pays for one year iu advance. Terms for 1S72. One copy, one year, with Oil Chromo, $3; r 1 ve copies, one year, with Oil Chroma. $20. Any person sending 10 names and $40 will receive an extra copy gratis, making eleven cop-es for the money.
