We have all along said but little about the Ohio Democratic Platform. It is the 9th Resolution if thi 1', nntyhsxnia Hamsburg OonvenUou against which wo war, and war to the knife! This is the embodiment of the “New Departure” doctrine, against w*ic.\ wo so earnestly protest.

It is sgslm * this position, and this moat shameful ebaudonnit i of all Uight, Justice and Truth, that we war. Oar correspondent says that the California l>cm< crate, in their State platform, iutemled only to d» Clare the three auioudmente arc “amdtlemeiit in fart of all the issues of the war. etc.” and not to that they had been aelopted according to law, or they were in themselves cither just vr right.

Major bfl&eved be had “spotted” something like twenty thou sand dollars, and that he could recover it He desired to undertake it and wished to be authoritatively employed to do so. This is all. The next paper in this huge “ mare’s nest ” is as follows : Atlovta, July 12, 1871. To the Oomni.ttonert on Clmms W. d A. R. R.: Osina—I hereby propo«« to examine into and dis cover any error* or omiaalona that may be found to exist In the settlement or disbursements of the Western and Atlantic Bailroad, old administration, Including claims lying dormant or supposed to be ancdUectable. for a commission of *U per cent. ~ all sums collected c r adjusted. The above proposttiuu ia made for services entire ly outside of any duty I may owe to mid Western and Atlantic Bailroad aa ite general bookkeeper. Respectfully, Casa. T. McCaua. This paper was presented to tlie Audi- ting Board of State Hoad Olainu, for tbeir sanction. He knew of old debts and balances which seemed to bo lost sight of, some of which he believed were collectable, and ho desired to under taka tbo same for compensation—in whieli we see nothing criminal—no evi dence of an intention to perpetrate fraud. At the foot of this proposition thus made, and on the Bnmo sheet of paper, the following is written: Wo strongly recommend tin* acceptance of within proposition, and do hereby accept it a legally do so. This waa intended for the Board to «ign, which they declined to do, upon the ground that they had no authority to make such a contract, uud tbut to give it their sanction, by signing the recommen dation, waa outside of the duties assigned them by the Legislature, though all ex pressed an earnest desiro to have tho in vestigation made, and did not object to compensation being given for the service. Major McCallu then submitted the fol lowing: Atuimta, July 12,1871. Cummistumers tf Claimi against IK. d A. Railroad: dents—Believing that sumo error exists iu certain accounts of the Western A Atlantic Railroad that are lying dormant or entirely unknown, I propose to examine such matter* iu iny leisure hours, aud if possible, establish such errors aud claims for a era! compensation, if successful. Respectfully, (’HAS. P.

A grt at deal haa been wbiapered about tlieae paper*. Wo knew all nliont tlicir existence and their exact natnro loug ago. The committee, in turning over to Major Mol'. !il» private papers, decided that tlieae three were pertaining to the rood,and retained them. McCallu claimed them os private, I ml had no objection t< their remaining in the hands of the com mittee; neither did ho object to any one seeing them. There lias boon a porBiatout cll'ort on tho part of somo who are implicated in the State ltond embezzlements and their frauds, to blast the reputatioujand blacken the character of McCallu, since he com meneed the prosecution of delinquents. It resulted in bis arrest, because lie did not make entries on books—the muking of which would have been prims facie evidence of a jrimlnsl intention. This arrest was at tho instance of Col. Farrow, in doing which ho showed that lie did not understand Bookkeeping—also, that ho failed to fully comprehcnd.what were McCallu'a duties. On Saturday Col. Farrow Baked for a copy of those ) spers. Tho committee decided that ho was entitled to the same. McCallu aud his oonnsol, after looming tho purpoao for which copies were desir ed, demurred. Col. Farrow demanded it, aud MoOalla positively objected, and at ottoo sued out a possessory warrant, upon whieh tho entire committco was arrest< d and brought before Judge Uutt.

Upon this tho warrant was issued, and the case is Bet down for u hearing on Wednesday, at 10 o'clock. The papers are in possession of Judge Butt, but Maj. Hargrove has furnished the foregoing oopiej to the Press—having no oonoealments to make. New we have this remark to make : When men undertake to perpetrate frauds, or do dishonorable things, wheth er singly or by several combining, the firat thing aimed at is conmdmcnt. No man ever yet entered upon a project of rascality by entering into, or proposing a written agreement oonoerniug its terms, a jj ami submitting the some to honest men Mor their sanction, aud by telling others of tho oxistuooe and nature of such writiejp. If Itf.g 'aJtt, aud Hargrove had aimed ut doing a criminr 1 , or even a mean thing, ao writing wonld have b« m made and loft where othera could find it As Hargrove justly remarks, they are tho highest ev idences of integrity—jute aa UcOalia’s A Mistake. The Conelilutiun, of yesterday, com menting u]>on the arrest of Messrs. Red- wine, Rawson and Hammock, bus somo comments, whieh must have been made through haste, without mature considera tion und investigation—so it teems to ne. It clearly makes insinuations against Mc Calla and Hargrove, which, with the lights before us, ore uot just to them.— It says: ft HP* , that Mr. McCalla haa bfjeu after 20 per cent of tho Htate Road frauds, aud proposes a divisiou with Ma jor Hargrove.” Also: “Whether this is a test question over unimportant papers that may, if successful, embolden an attempt In got other and more important papers in the com mittee's hands aa private papers, Is still another question. Whether this movement of Mr. McCalla was a big speculation to make a round sum that th« Statu is entitled to, and which the Bute's officers, if vigilant, could get, is still auother matter.” It then prejudges tho case by saying: “One thing is very certain, and that is, that no pa pers connected with the transaction iu any way are private psper*. The public has a right to thorn all, aud the effort to withdraw them from the commit tee’s possusHiim creates a suspicion in the minds of tho impartli 1. Tho Idea very naturally arises that something is behind that will not bear scrutiny.” These are the remarks to which Maj. Hargrove replies this morning. From the Columbus (Oa.)

Stephens, no ticing “the California Democratic Plat form, a few days since, ” said no such thing I A. H. S. [Atlanta Sun, With. Such “double-shuffling” ou the mrt of Mr. Stephens is surprising, twill be seen that his denial does uot meet our assertion at all. Iu dealing with u lawyer wo must, of course, look out for “special plead ing;” but a man of Mr. Stephens’ character aud ability ought to drop all lawyer tricks in editing a news paper. To show tliut Mr. Stephens could not, without the plainest exhibition of tergiversation, have denied that he accepted “the identical declaration” of tlie California platform which we said he accepted, wo refer again to his paper of tho 4th of September, that paper he published a letter from a California correspondent, in which the correspondent wrote to him: “We nay in t.ur platform, ‘lliat we regard tli Heveral niiiuiuluioute to tlie ('oiiHtitiitiou ri adopted aa a Huttlemeut in fact of oil tlie iniuuH of tlie war, and that tue nanio are uo longer Ihhuoh before the country,' and thla aeema to meet with Home ob- ioctora throughout tho country. 1 do not believe that a Hiugle meinlter of our Htate Convention meant to May that the aiucndmeuU were right aud Just, or that lie indorsed them; nor do I believe that out would have taken the oath of the Medea and Per Miami, never to change the Uouatltutiou when they lluil it oppressive, and have power to do ho. Wo all look on the I Mli Amendment an unjuat and un-Amur- nan. in taking the control ol HuHnige from tho the Ntatca, but at present the amendmente aro in Rill foree, with the whole government aud army to euforeo them “ To this Mr. Stephens, in the same paper, responds: “Our correspondent says that tho Cal iforuia Democrats, in their Slate plat form, iutcud only to declare tlie three amendments ore 'a settlement in fact of all the issues of tlie war,' oto., and not to aver that limy bad boon aihqited accord ing to law, or tbut they were iu them selves cither just or right. On tlie con trary, he Hays that they huv« ‘an abiding faith in the intelligence of the people to pronouuco them null and void ut somo future day.’ This is ourj/ositivn exactly. As late as Saturday morning last, the lOlli inst, Mr. Stephens repeated, with approval, in his paper, an other extract from the same edito rial, which we have heretofore quo ted, and which is in spirit a repetition of "the identical declaration” of the California platform which we said that he accepted "exactly.” Here is what he repealed on Saturday last: "Wo liuve no objection to those who accejU tho 'fraudulent amendments' as existing facts, while the administration of the Government is in tlm bunds of (lioso who are clothed witli povvur to en force them, bnt who do not indorse them as finalities. Wo hail as friends all those who acquiesce in them as de facto, but not dejure porta of tlie organic law.” Mr. Stepheus not only repeated this on Saturday last, but endeavored to show, by quoting from his former editorials, tliut he was of the same mind when he first took charge of Thk Atlanta Sun. Is this consis tent with a denial of “the identical declaration ?’’ Twelve Months Six MontlXH • 810 00 1 Three Montlm • 5 OO One Mon tli • Clubs For Daily-For Annum i Henry Bischoff & Co-, WHOLESALE GROCERS, AND DBAI.KR8 IN Bloc, Wlnoa, Llquons, tec- gni-s.Toimeeo.
