Wo are informed, (and suppose it ia
true),'that Ospti Blodgett and his friends
and confederates are making a despe
rate effort to break down investigation
into bis Htute Bond management, by in
dustrioualy making suggestions to the
prejudice, of Maj. Hargrove and Msj.
McCalls.
These two gentlemen are entitled to
the credit of beginning the work of ex
posure. They have already prooured the
restoration of a considerable amount of
money and property, and know more
about bow to proceed to recover the iq>-
sunas which can yet be saved, and
oonvict those who are guilty, than any
others
Ah effort is bein g made to prejudice
the Democratic members of the Legisla
ture against them, on the ground that
McCalla is a Republican in politics, and
an employee of) the road while the
ptanderlag was going on; and against
Hargrove, beoause be has given some ob
jectionable testimony before the Ku-klux
Committee. McCalls was dispossessed Of
the books of the road by Blodgett to stop
any further discoveries and exposures by
him; and the great object is to keep him
from ever having any further control of
those books, or giving any assistance in
the investigations. A tremendous effort
has been made, but nothing has yet been
produced to Impeach his integrity; and
the same is true of Maj. Hargrove. They
have both given their time and expended
their own money; and now, Capti Blod
gett hopes to induce(the Legislature to ig
nore them, leave them without the means
of continuing the prosecutions com
menced, and thereby preventing invet-
ligation, till he san secure a seat in the
United States Senate. This is the pro-
gramifco. ( v
JUT. C. Morris, Bs«.
Mr. Morris is ono of the men who has
demonstrated his business qualifications
by success. He came to this city in 1867,
as the Local Agent of the Southern Life
Iasamnoe Company, of Memphis. Soon
he organised a branch office of the com
pony in this city, of which Oen. Gordon
was made President.
The company bos prospered, as but few
companies ever did, and furnishes evi
dence of being built on as sound a basis,
and having os solid prosperity, ss any]
company in the United States. It is, in
a groat degree, through the business qual
ifications and real capacity of Mr. Morris
that this result has been attained. He
has devoted himself most assiduously to
the work, looking constantly to the per-
ianaent soundness of the company,“and
thb security of those who have insured
in it, and has achieved success. Gen.
Gordon and.Gen. Colquitt, with the Di
rectors—Col. Yanoey, Gen. Austell, and
others—have given very material aid in
the general plans,of the company, and in
giving it public confidence; but tho de
tails—the proper systematizing of the
real business—have, in a great mousure,
devolved on Mr. Morris; aud for much of
their succo8s,'the company is indebted to
him.

7b the Editorz of the Daily Sun : Gen
tlemen—Being one of the parties against
whom the public are cautioned in your
article headed “ Fire-Proof Safes," I
claim the right to enter a short reply.
You are unquestionably correct in your
advice lo persons wishing to purchase
safes, to wait until it shall be fairly
proved which is the best. Over eighty
Salt* foiled iu the great Fire iu Port
land, Maine, some years ago, and five or
six in a firo in Augusta, aud yet onr peo
ple continue to purchase the same kind
of safes, merely because some few saved
what was consigned to them, giving their
manufacturers an opportunity to show
them, and obtain certificates that they
withstood the fire.
It ia probable that more than one
thousand business safes were in the Chi
cago fire, and it ia confidently believed
that more than three-fourths of them ut
terly failed, aud still, any manufacturer
who had five or six hundred in the fire,
(and some of them had that number)
and lost fonr out of five, will be able to
show more than one hundred certificates,
with which an unscrupulous agent can
induce the uninitiated to believe, that
his safes aro perfectly “ Fire-Proof," and
ia that way hundreds of them are sold
in the Sonth, and the money of our peo
ple ia carried North by the hundreds of
thousands, while they are left to trust in
a broken reed, for the safes are as sure
to fail in the hour of need ss those before
them have done.
The people now have a right to know
on what they can place reliance, and the
Board of Trade, in Chioago, ought to
make, and publish, s correct report of
all aafea whioh were in the fire, and our
people may well afford to wait for infor
mation.
I represent the American Steam Fire-
Proof Safe Company, Sanborn'a Patent,
but I hare no interact in it whatever, ex
cept as salesman.
I took it np previous to the great fire,
because I believed that it was constructed
upon scientific principles, and I now be-
lievo that, unless God has changed the
law regarding the effects of fire upon
water, that it must be superior to any
other. Steam camee off the beat as fata
as it enters the safe, and must continue
to do so se long as the Are lasts, unless
the water becomes exhausted, and we
know that we put in ureter enough to
last through any fire, aa well es we know
that we make chairs strong enough to
beer our weight
I am perfectly honest in my convic
tions in regard to the superiority of this
kind of safe over ell others, although I
am fully aware that various materials are
put into other safes, which are said to
give out water when heet is applied, but
I know of nothing which gives so much
water in the same space, aa water itself,
and hence Sanborn came to that at ones.
Heat will penetrate anything, and ev
erything, and no safe can be made that
will always continue to resist its action,
bnt we aay that by providing water in
sufficient quantities to moke steam to fly
off with this heat through the joints
store the door, ire give rime enough to
allow the fire to barn down and go ont,
before any damage can occur inside the
safe, and our public tests in different
cities have proved this to be true.
Now, if lam mistaken in regard to the
fire-proof qualities of this safe, then in
God's name let it go down, and let the
oompany break np, who, by continuing
its manufacture, are working an injury
to tho pnblie, as well as to myself. But,
give us a hearing, and let ns see who is
right in tho matter. Let purchasers wait
until their reason shall be convinoed,
and not be fooled by certificates and un-
trathfnl assertions, that any kind of safe
stood the Chicago fire, or any other large
fire, where many of them were exposed.
I am willing to abide the result of rea
son, common sense end experience, gui
ded by the most searching scientific in
vestigation, and if I fail, then my reason
is at fault, and not my desire to do right
Very respectfully, yonr obedient servant,

The Fnblcd Ornadsar of tbs East Sar-
A Hsmbls A at sag Ilabtss sad Diamonds
In a conspicuous place, in the Fine
Art Exhibition Hall, at Oglethorpe Park,
could be seen, dnring the Annual Fair,
which has just closed, the magnificent
display of Watches, Jewelry, Diamonds,
Bronze Goods, and SilverWare, enteied
by Messrs. Sharp A Floyd, of this city.
After s careful survey of these glitter
ing gems and curiosities of genius, we
naturally ask ourselves whst next will the
skilful hand of the artist devise to com
pel the admiration of the thousands of
“ sight seekers ?" No branch of art
demands such nicety of workmanship,
and such care in its adjustments as the
Watch, unless, perhaps, we consider the
labors of tho Optician, and with both
there must be exercised the greatest me-
obanical skill, inseparably ,-onnected with
Mathematical Science. To the already
intricate mechanism of the ordinary
Watch are added many singular contri
vances, which not only multiply the use
fulness of the time-keeper, bnt present
manifold noveltips of skill.
The display made by Messrs. Sharp A
Floyd has, we venture, never been sur
passed in this country; and we not only
refer to the costliness of the articles but
the taste in arrangement displayed and
the varied styles of manufacture.
The large, elegant show cases, filled
with Diamonds, Watches and Jewelry,
attracted admiring throngs during the
entire period of exhibition and they
wearied not in their examinations of pro
ducts from all quarters of the globe.—
Messrs. Sharp & Floyd, as is well known,
are sole agents for a number of celebra
ted European Watch Manufactories,
among which, are Messrs. Jules Jergen-
sen, E. Perregeaux and Nardin. These
Watches are made to order especially for
this market aud aro wonders of art and
beauty. In the vast collection of time
keepers, we mention a lady’s watch, said
to to the finest in the world. The value
of thia time-piece is two thousand dol
lars. Tho back of it ia profusely laid in
Diamonds, Emeralds and Hubies, the
whole settiug representing,a gorgeous
butterfly.
From ti e smallest plain gold ring to
the most elaborate Diamond Necklace,
there existed the most wonderful taste,
being combinations of strength with
novelty. A grander display never flashed
before longing eyes of dame and maid,
and the sterner sex by no means failed to
loudly testify their delight. As if by
magic, tho beholder, forgetting the mate
rial world around, found himaelf conveyed
to the “val'ey of precious stones," which,
alas, in the practinal age, exists only in
fable ornaments of Roman, Etruscan and
plain gold, consisting of Watch Chains,
Loekets, Bracelets, Shirt and SlceTe
Buttons, formed an intoreating part of
the display. In many instances the dif
ferent shades of gold were blended in a
locket or necklace producing an effect
both novel and unique; all of which con
veya to the thinking one that a vast
amount of ingenuity is required to reach
such happy designs, while the artist must
possess both patience and skill.
The Solid Silver Ware, and among it
the Society's premium, alone formed an
important feature ot the displays. Each
succeeding season demands new styles in
Silver Were jut is in other articles of
Merchandise, and Messrs. Sharp A Floyd,
keeping apace with fashion and the de
mands of the people, have not noglected
to order the very beet material made into
the latest style; e due regard being paid
to the naeful end ornate. From the
delicate tracing on a Napkin Bing to the
heavy scroll work of the mammoth fam
ily waiter, there is nothing wanting.—
There exists in all departments a refined
taste, both as regards finish and utility.
Their Clocks, bronze and briocrhroc,
fashioned by the artists of the old world,
attracted eoorae of lovers of the unique,
and the escaped expressions of delight
testified strongly their appreciation.
The Committee whioh selected Messrs.
Sharp A Floyd's exhibition of Diamonds,
Watches, Silver Ware, Jewelry end
Bronze Goods, as the most voluble dis
play did ample justice to their apprecia
tion, both u regards brilliancy'of aahl.
bjtion and financial Vhlue. With an affa
bility and courtesy, happily joined with
greet patience, these gentlemen, Messrs.
Sharp A Floyd, answered the thousands
of questions propounded them hourly, as
how, when, and where such wonders came
from, and last, tot not least among the
interrogations, what do they cost ?—
Barely doing justice to tho really gor
geous exposition of gems of art and ie.iy sake for
ence, we cast this feeble effort npon the
charity of Messrs. Sharp A Floyd, know
ing full well, that they will separate the
errors of the head from the good inten
tions of the heart of
Thu Authob.
