The mountains of California are reported to be on Are. Joaquin Hiller’s poems must hare caused the conflagra tion. They are rery fervent B*%- The Nashville Banner has some thing to say abont the “agitation of sound principles." The Banner's prin ciples an all sound—and nothing more. PW The New Orleans Picayune is striving to show its readers “the bad ef fects of lotteries.” The Picayune, prob ably, has never snoceeded in purchasing any but blank tickets. Instead of accepting a reception in Boston, Grant recommended that the money be sent to Chicago. He has no notion of aooepting anything that he could not carry off with him. If Boston had offered him the 920,000 in clean cash, he never would have thought of Chicago. 90-The Nashville Union and American thinks it a matter of surprise that Grant, though a native of Illinois, and reputed to be very wealthy, has not given a dol lar in aid of the Chicago sufferers. But that paper forgets that Grant stands at the head of the list of prominent Ameri can paupers, and is thankful for all pres ents tendered him, having nothing to give away. All that he has comes from the noble charity of office seekers. Of course the illustrious pauper could not be expected to aid others. 10* The Mobile Tribune says: “Isn’t it rather crowding the language to build a Masonic hall with stores for rent on the ground floor, and call it a ‘temple ?’ ” That may be true, but it is not new for a building so used to be so called. Per haps the Register man has not read of how one went into a “Temple,” many yean ago, and drove out them who were “ money-changers,” and who sold doves. The book and the incident are very old, and may have been overlooked by the Register in its rummages among the his toric ages of the world. Akerman, the beloved disciple of Radicalism, who passed through Atlanta a few days ago, ostensibly en route for Washington, went, it seems, no further than into South Carolina, where he has since been awaiting the imperial edict, giving him the liberty to fasten his eager claws upon the throats of the people. A Washington special,to the Savannah Netes of the 18th has the followiug: This crowning aot of persecution toward the people of South Carolina, was decided upon at the last meeting of the Cabinent, and the proclamation was written and ruined. An occasional example can be made of a thief, who does not stand any too well with his party, and that only for the sake of appearances; but when cases are developing every week; when prominent oftioe-holders are stealing, not only thousands, but millions, party interest does not dictate a pros- ution of each case, and a punishment of each criminal; henoe they resort to the pre text of allowing defaulters to make ex planations and give a new name to theft Verily the Radical party is a miracle of integrity and honor. It does not wil lingly let the halter draw around the neck of a single rogue in the whole lot; for if all the rogues in the party were punished, barely an office-holder would be left to tell the tale. HUBribt $ (To. signed bv Grant, previous to his depart ure for the North. Akerman was notifi ed to proceed to South Carolina, nnd have matters organized for the acts of persecution to be committed under the authority of this proclamation, and he has been in constant correspondence with the officials here since his arrival in South Carolina. This proclamation was not issued until near ten o’clock to-night, and then was rushed out hastily from the Department of State, after the receipt of a telegraphic report from Akerman, ad vising that it be issued at once. It appears from this that the highest law officer of the Government, has been delegated to the petty work of persecu ting the people of South Carolina. There is no doubt, of his readiness to do the work. Though it is entirely incom patible with his high official position, it is in strict consonance with his feline nature. He has been watching and wait ing and hoping for such an opportunity to occur. Ho has no sympathy with the people of the South. He has no feeling in common with them, nnd he would de light in seeing them humbled and pros trate at the feet of a system of vindic tive persecution. Perhaps, at no time in his life did he ever enter into any thing with more relish than he will begin these persecutions. South Carolina has long been esteemed as a symbol of that Southern chivalry, of which his New England birth and education gave him no earthly perception. This chivalry he will delight in persecuting—believing that be can humble it—and all the ener gies of his crabbed nature will be di rected to that end. The mystoiy of bis ■election os a Cabinet officer is rapidly being explained. This is the work unto which he was ordained by his master, Grant, and he was selected because of his bitterness toward the Southern peo ple, and because, if there was a last feather to break the camel's back, he would not hesitate to lay it on. STATE MATTERS. The Milledgevillo Recorder says: “The City Council are constructiogflrecisterns in various portions of the city. ” Wouldn't a few water cisterns be of greater utility? A mail route is to be established be tween Madison and Monticcllo. Oapt B. H. True is now the editor of the Madison Appeal <t Heal Estate Adver tiser. The Georgia Railroad passes lawyers, who come to Atlanta to attend the Su preme Court, for but one fare. They pay full fare coming, and return free. Mayor Estes, of Augusta, gives every body a holiday, to attend the Cotton States Fair, on the 2d of November. Gainesville subscribes $20,000 to the Gainesville and Dalilonega Railroad. Macon is filled with counterfeit money. Mr. James Williams, on old citizen of Maoon, died Tuesday evening. Miss Mary Moyer, of Talbotton, died on the 12th insk from the effects of tak ing too much chloroform. The Talbotton American, which was burned out some time ago, has resumed publication. Goorgo Y. Pond, of Columbus, was thrown from a buggy the other day and had his leg broken. Numbers of fine horses, have already been entered for the Columbus Fair. According to the Sun, two Columbus boys, aged ten and twelve years, were seen lost Sunday “drunk as biled owls.” A ten pound trout furnishes the Mil- ledgeville Recorder something to brag about. IN THE CITY! 90*The Washington correspondent of the Louisvillo Letlger telegraphs the fol lowing, regarding the defalcation of Gen. Balloch: Since the Hodge defalcation tbero has been a general overhauling of the ac counts of disbursing officers, and among others whose accounts needed eiplana- tion were those of Gen. Balloch, the dis bursing officer of the Froedmen's Bureau. His own books showed a discrepancy of 8250,000. An order was at once issued for Balloch’s arrest, when he managed to hush the matter up by showing that he bad that amount on deposit in United States bonds in the Sate Deposit in this city, which were turned over to the ac counting officer. According to hia own confession Balloch had invested moneys intrusted to him for disbursement in bonds in order that he might realize the interest accruing thereon to indemnify himself for money which he claims he had overpaid the negro soldiers. It seems he has been indulging in this method of remunerating himself for the past four years. According to the law governing disbursing officers he has been guilty of embezzlement, but the authorities here, instead of surrendering him to justice, are endeavoring to explain away the tram- action. The fact is becoming apparent to tLe Radicals that, if they proceed with the investigation of all the defalcations that are being exposed, the party will be miscellaneous.
