He says that erery part of hie evidence before the Investi gating Committee, which Bollock states is false, is corroborated by other wit- 1, or proven by letters from Bullock which be heanow ia his poeaeeaion. Hs state* further that he is entirely innocent ot any frand whatever, and that he hoe no fears of not being able to prove the same, Hr. Harris is decidedly facetious in his comments on the flight of “the greet innocent.” “How is It,” he asks, “with our quondam Governor? He oioime to be right—in feet the great apostle of right; bat without any charge being brought against him, flies from hie Gubernatorial chair; flics from liiaBtate; flies from hie country, and seeks pro tcclion under the mgie of the British Lion.” This is interesting, ooming as it does, from the pen of one who has ranked sea ma'eat least, in the Radical Crew, that soI 'Ug pirated thetreasary of the State.

Choose ye wisely, Democrats!— Atlanta ConslUu Hon, iVev. a, 1872. 1. II the Democrats act “wisely," as it ig to bo hoped they will, woald they not do well to inquire how the election ot Mr. Greeley can possibly metn " the overthrow of Centralism and BouibeiEorprcraion?” Hare tbeSoutb ern people ever suffered any oppression of which Mr. Greeley was not one ol the obief insligutors and perpetrators ? Hare the people of the Southern Statos suffered any "oppression” from “Centralism” since the war, exoeptsuch os tho Powers at Washington deemed accessary “for tho maintemnee of tbe equal rights of nil the inhabitants of these States, ia matters pertaining to their civil and political relations ? Did not Mr. Gr.cleyaud his associates aecm all those " oppressions,” of which we so justly complained, as notbiog but tue necessary results of a faithful dis charge oo their part ol a high “and sol emn constitutional obligation 7” Does he not note ask tho votes of Georgia Democrats with a distinct avowal, on his part, of the same “sol earn Constitutional obligation” resting on tho “oentral authority” to renew all these oppressions in the future, and even worse, if it should be necessary in the discharge ot tbe same obligation 7 We put these plain and direct questions, not only to the Condituhon, but to all reason ing and “ trite” Democrats. If these things be true, theu we ask further, how can the election of Mr. Greeley possibly be expeoted to effeot tho overthrow of “centralism and Southern oppression ?' We address ourselves to ths calm judg ment of reasoning ss well as patriotic men. Is not tbe doctrine of Hr. Greeley, si annonneedby himself, that thero is suoh a “constitutional obligation" resting upon the “oentral anthonty,” ths very essence of “centralism,” in its most dsn geroas end odious form 7 Doe* not ths Constitution oi the United States itself, in expresn wotds, forbid any suoh inter ference with the internal affaire of the States 7 Are not all these matters per taining to tbe political and civil rights of the inhabitants of the several States left by the Constitution exclusively to tho States themselves respectively 7 Host assuredly they era;' and every as sumption of power by the central aa- tbority under Hr. Greeley's erroneously asserted “constitutional obligation,” is nothing but a gross and palpable usur pation. He asserts that it is the consti tutional duty of the oentral authority to do just what the OoaaUtution itself as serts it shall not do. 0*a“CeuU*li*m"jM«»t'i<y be overthrown by indorsing the unconstitutional prin ciples on which it seeks to establish its permanent osaendancy 7 Oh, Democrats I would that you were "trim" in this day of yonr greatest peril 1 “Principles end results, influitely be yond all individuality, however surpass ing," ore indeed “at stoke 1” Principles involving the very foundation ot til onr free Institutions in their tallest and broadest extent, not only for the present, bat for all time to oome I Bo much tor the prospect of getting rid of “Centralism” and “Southern op pression" by the election of Hr. Oneley to the Prosidsney. Wo hare had enoagh of hia “goods” in the past Hay Heav en preserve ns from any more of the same sort 2. Now, a few words in reply to the ‘biasing” assault o! the Constitution against what h'termed “onr glaring po litical inconsistencies,” in supporting Hr. Adams for the Vioe Presidency. On this point we hare bat e few words; for e few only ore necessary to show the ntter groundlessness of the charge. The brief, clear, fall and aonclaslve answer is, that whatever may hare been Mr. Adams’ views upon the “ New De parture" question, or on any other on which ws may have differed with him, he, nevertheless, sots stands equarclj upon the principles set forth in the Louisville O Conor Platform. ThatPlat- forin ia a clear and explicit embodiment of ths ancient Jeffersonian Creed, with out any indorsement of sny sort of “Departure” therefrom. It arrays itself in op< n antagonism to tbe “ Mew De parture " doctrines set forth iu the CinoinnsliBaUimore Platform. If then we support Mr. Adams, stand ing, os be now does, upon this platform, wherein is our inconsistency 7 Here we not uniformly, ever since we took charge of the political columns of Tbb Box, de clared oar willingness to support uLj candidates who should stsud upon any platform which did not “ depart” from tbe ancient creed ot the Democratic party, and which did not "sanction" the gross usurpations ol tbe Radical party since the war for the Union was over 7 While we all the time announced it os our judgment, tbat the best polioy for sucocss, end that lice whioh would in sure i», was t>'e open and bold arraign ment ot these nsuipations for popular condemnation Yet we have uniformly declared, as every attentive reader of Tbb Sub mast know, tbat wo would, for harmony’s sake, yield this view, and snpport any candidates tunning upon any platform which did not “depart” from tho essentials of tho old Democratic creed, and whioh did not sanction these late radical atrocities, at d close tbe door against tbeir future arraignment tor popular condemnation I Is not this the unassailable truth of onr position all tho time 7 Ia support ing Mr. Adams now, are we not, there fore, supporting just such a man, ou just such a Platform, os we have ever said we were willing to do, if the line of policy we thought best should not be adopted 7 Tbe Constitution, in the foregoing ed itoral, speaks of the oharaoter of tbe a.' tions of “an intoxicated cricket.” We have given no attention to tbat depart ment of Zoological Srience. We know nothing ot how these “little innocents" behave when “in liquor.” But we respect fully submit to tbe intelligence of man kind, whether any one who sees inc insist ency ou our part in this particular oase, hare much more of the reasoning facul ty snout him than might bo expected, even of a cricket “ three sheets iu the wind I” 8. One other matter only in the fore going editorial of tbe Constitution (which is given in run; we win nneny notice, and then will have done with it. “In tne “ first place,” (it says) “ the Condilulion “ has never advocated the New Depart- “ure. Wo defy Mr. Stephens to quote “one word from its columns m advocacy “of tho Now Departure.” What does the Conslituliou mean by this defiant challenge ? Let u* under, stand each other. What does tbo Consti tution metn by the New Departure ? Let us first understand esch other on this print. What tee moan ly the “Now Depart ure” was the proposed policy of certain leaders of tho Dt mocratio party last year to oease ail opposition to the Radical or ganization on account of the usurpa tions attending reconstruction; and to aooept their results “aa finalities," con stitutionally accomplished, never more to be inquired into, or arraigned before the public for condemnation. This is wbatwe understand by tho “New De parture" dootrine, or polioy, so-called. With this understanding, does the Constitution presume to defy us to show from its columns, its advooacy of this doctrine or policy 7 If so. we hare but to refer to what has appeared in its col umns almost doily for the last two months at least, in laudation of the principles of Mr. Greeley, which are therein held up os the embodiment of “ Constitutional ism 1" What else does it mean in this very editorial we ore commenting upon, by what it styles the “ heroic self-abnega tion" ol the Democratic party at Balti more, but an indorsement of their “new departure" in this particular, from their own to a Radical platform 7 Has not the Constitution so advocated the Cincinnati- Baltimore platform 7 If it has not so done, or did not so mean to do, or to be •o understood, then we are in error, and do notaocept the challenge. The trath and rignt are what we aim at ic all things; bat candor oompcls os to say that we have understood the Con t'Mulion as maintaining that the Cincin nati-Baltimore Platform, as ezpoundsd by Mr. Oreeley, is snoh a declaration of principles as should not only satisfy all true Democrats, but in itself embodies the essential ideas of Constitutional ism against Centralism.” Are we oorrect in this understanding or not? Under the belief that we are, let ns tarn to that embodiment of “ Constitutionalism” so adrooated, as we hare understood, by the Oanetitution, The preamble of the declaration re ferred to, is in these words: -Ws, tba Liberal BarnbUcaDS of tba Doited States. Is National Convention ssssmbl, d nt Clean- lull, praotelm tbs tallowing prlEdptas an nnsantlal s Just fOTernaaent.** Among other principles so anncuuocd essential to a “Just government,” the following ia set forth: than that it stands'ontlrely upon differ ent principles. But the important pointiu ths decla ration is the “pledge” therein given “to oppose any re-opening of the questions settled” by the so-called 14th and 15th Amendments. These questions, ao declared to he “settled,"’dud not to bo reopened, spring from principles asserted to bo es sential fora “justgovernment, though they involve all the usurpations, outrages and oppressions perpetrated by the Re construction measures. The pledge, therefore, so given is tho dear expression of tho substance and essence of the “ New Departure.” Now, whether the advocacy of this Platform, with tnis pledge in it, neces sarily carries with it the advocacy of tbe “New Departure,” even without express words to that effect, we leave for tbe public to deeide. We can only give it ns onr individual opinion tbst it does,—and venture ths farther opinion that such will be tbe “sober’' judgment of a mijority of man kind, whatever may bo tbe conclusion of any number of “intoxicated crickets" upon tbe subjeoL A.

Now, i. our neighbor siuoero iu what ia said in the' foregoing editorial ? Did we not olearly show that he did not quote Mr.. Greeley correctly when be represented him as holding tbat the righta of the citizens of the several States were to he eDjoyed under his platform, subject to tho Constitution 7 Did we not clearly show that he woe in au egre gious error iu representing Mr. Greeley as being in favor of “ local eelf-govern ment, subject to Federal supervision?” Was thero nothing on these points in our artiole “on which to heng a joinder 7” If not, what must be the conclusion ? Is it not that no rejoinder eoald be ven- turcu upon which would not make mat ters worse ? Nay, more; was there noth ing in onr denial of the correctness oi his quotation from our speeoh beforo the Georgia Legislature iu 1866, which re quired a rejoinder, If only to the extent of admitting his error in this particular?

Chronical.] Yesterday morning several of the pas sengers on the Memphis * 'Charleston Railroad met with a narrow escape from a terrible death. The passengers, eight in number, were aboardtturstsepliig oar, “City of Memphis,” ia charge of s con ductor and porter, when, os the train ar rived st Stevenson, n Mr. 7. F. Carle, who was accompanied by hi* wife and two little children, discovered the ter rible danger to whioh they were exposed and aroused tho porter, who, os also tbe oonduotor, was asleep. Tbe passengers were then horridly aroused and escaped en dishabille, and by the time they had all gotten oat tho fire had spread so rapidly that the flames were ooming oat of ths front door. Harried toilets were made, bat so fierce were the flames that none oonld re-enter the oar, and only saved what they took out with them when first awakened from their sleep. In addition to Mr. Carle and bis chil dren mentioned above, were CapL Joseph Jaqaes and bis niece, Mils Sue Ayres, and two geutlemen from Louisville. Mr. 0. and children lost a portion of their clothing. Oapt, Jaques was more fortu nate, preserving bis pnsenoe of mind, and saved everything he had; Miss Ayres lost a portion ot her wearing apparel, and the gentlemen from Louisville were still more unfo-tanato, losing several valuable articles they were carrying to the State Fair at Columbia, 8. 0„ and one of them nil his money, $175, which he placed ander his pillow for safety, and forgot it in his hurried flight. As soon as the passengers left tbe burn ing car, Captain Jaques hod it pulled up to the tank, but there was no water, and finding that its loss was inevitable tbe car was pushed out of tho way and left to its fate. The canoe of the fire is un known, bat it originated at the rear end, sway from the store. There seems to have been gross.oorelessness on the part of the conduotor and porter, who. in stead of looking after the safety of the passengers, oaimly slept while the car was burning. A collision occurred at Oxford, on tbe Selma, Rome and Dalton Railroad, on Thursday night, between two passenger trains, resulting in the. death of two per sons. Oxford is ihe point where tho trains pass, bat owing to some unknown cause tna train first arriving ran past tho depot when it was run into by the other. Amusements.
