The Fifteenth Amendment.
We hare little idea that this amendment will
become a part of the Constitution. Twenty-
eight States are necessary to the ratification.
Forney, in one of hi* occasional letters to **>.
Philadelphia Press, makes out twenty-five States
certain, and in those he counts Indiana, Iowa,
Minnesota, New York, Pennsylvania, and Rhode
Island. If he gets the whole twenty-fire, he
counts on three more from the States of Ohio,
Virginia, Mississippi, .Georgia and Texas. Too
many strings—some of them are bound to snap.
Information Wanted.
The agent of the Associated Press at Wash
ington telegraphed ns on Wednesday, that “the
Senate Judiciary Committee has reported a Geor
gia bill, with amendments.” And again: “An
amendment forcing a republican goremment
on Georgia was made to the bill for enforcing
the fourteenth amendment.” And again, an the
18th, that “ the Reconstruction Committee con
sidered Georgia to-dsy." That was information,
so far aa it went; but could he not hare strain
ed a point and told us what the Georgia bill pro
posed to do with ns, what was the amendment
forcing a republican government on Georgia,
and what this Reconstruction Committee consid
ered in relation to Georgia 7
Hon. John II. Christy on the Si 1 na
tion.
Hon. John H. Christy, Democratic Represen
tative elect from the Athens District, baa re
turned home, and gives his views of the polit
ical situation in Washington, aa follows:
At Home Aoazs.—'The editor of the Watch
man has returned to his post, and has barely
time to announce that be will next week and on
sundry occasion* hereafter, sire his views in
reference to men and things, both at home and
elsewhere.
As to the question of representation in Con
gress, his residence at Washington has satisfied
him beyond doubt that no Democrat will be ad
mitted, no matter how great his majority or
how often his disabilities may hare been re
moved. Col. Switzler, of Missouri, whose ma
jority wo* I GOO, and who was intensely “loyal”
during the war and could take the test osth
forty times a day, was rejected by a large ma
jority, and that, too, after the committee of
elections had twice reported in his favor 1 The
same was true of CoL Hunt, of Louisiana, whose
majority was eleven thousand! Other like
eases might be cited. There is not s man in
the House who expects to see another Southern
Democrat admitted, whether he has disabilities
or not.
The Radicals ate distrustful of Grant—there is
much dissatisfaction in regard to his Cabinet
and other appointments—and things generally
are in a ferment.
Gxst. Baacxncaipo*.—The New York Tribune
says Gen. Breckinridge has a fine opportunity
to display great statesmanship in Kentucky:
“The graceful and wise little speech made
the other day by Sir. John C. Breckinridge,
ontho occasion of his return, after a four
year's exile, to his old home, suggests the work
for which the country looks to this gentleman,
and which, aa we hopefully trust, it may
yet receive at hi* hands.”
It goes on to advise him to come out in favor
of all Congress has done, help to beatow suf
frage upon niggers and all, and, in a word, be
come a first, class radical. It says Kentucky idol-
olizes him, but It would not “idolise” him long
on that line. ■ .
Minister to Mexico.—John Wilkes, the edi
tor of the Spirit of the Times, is a prominent
candidate for Minuter to Mexico. He is the
head center of the sporting fraternity of the
United States, and aa such, would be a brick
among the cock-fighting Mexicans. He could,
at odd hours, teach them all new points in draw-
poker, keno, old sledge, chuck-a-lnck, horse-
racing, prize-fighting, etc. On such interna
tional questions as the relations of a jack to an
ace, how the yerker takes the right bower in
a game of ochre, he is a sort of supreme court,
and from his opinion there is no appeal Both
countries will be greatly benefitted by this ap
pointment—this one in getting rid of him, and
that one in receiving such a valuable acquisition
to her scientific department.
General Hancock and the Governorship
or PenxstlnANIA. —The Democrats of Pennsyl
vania speak of running General Hancock aa their
candidate for Governor. As soon aa Grant was
inaugurated, Hancock was sent to Daootah, s
command not stall commensurate with his high
rank. This looked very like the new adminis
tration was piqued at him for his friendship for
Mr. Johnson. We presume the Democrats of
Pennsylvania ab think,\nd propose bringing him
back as the Governor of their State.
The Pacific RailroadW-Traci-laying upon
the great road to California is progressing very
rapidly. On the 4th instant, four and one-half
miles were laid, and on the 5th five miles.—
The whole route is now rapidly drawing towards
completion. It will certainly be opened in May,
so the papers say.
Removal to Macon.—The Columbns Sun says
the work of repairing the'cars and engines of
the Mobile and Girard Railroad, hitherto done
in Girard, will next month be transferee! to the
shops of the Southwestern, formerly Muscogee
railroad.
Bbownlow's Meetsh.—Warrants amounting
to $55,000 have already been drawn upon the
Treasury of Tennessee to pay off Brownlow's
ragamuffin rapscallion melish. The amount of
service performed up to date consists of raping
one negro girl.
Election for Justices or the Peace.—It will
be seen by a notice published to-day, that an
election for Justices of the Peace and Consta
bles, for Bibb county, will take place on-the Sd
day of April. The notice of the Ordinary des
ignates the TotiDg places.
Fobnet Invited to See the Dishes Washed
Up.—The irrepressible J. W. Forney has re
ceived no appointment from Grant yet. The
fat offices sre either all gone or spoken for.
The chances are that he will receive a ticket to
see the dishes washed np after the feast is over.
Death or Grant’s Rvit. Estate Partner.—
H. Boggs, who was formerly a partner of Gen.
Grant in the real estate business at St. Louis,
died on the 15th. He was to have been made
surveyor of that port.
Mare Train says he expects to see Seward in
the deaf and dumb half-orphan asylum for blind
and indigent widows before many months.
Rocheford says: “It is a hundred times better
to be the natural son of a great actress than the
legitimate child of a crowned goose.”
The Hon. Lucius J. Dupree, who has been a
prominent man in Louisiana, is dead.
The crowds which infest the White House are
simply frightful, and the President says he has
no hope of an abatement until the offioes are
filled. ~-
Tbe Legislative Ifnddle.
The antics of the Legislature upon the fif
teenth amendment ere without interest. It
seems, at last, to have been finally defeated by
the vote of Mr. Conley, the Radical President of
the Senate, and one of the most ultra Re-recon
structionists. Conley was afraid the passage of
the amendment might impair the chances for
further reconstructions! fuse in Georgia, and,
therefore, gave his casting vote against it, al
though claiming to be an especial and particular
advocate of the fifteenth amendment. That is
in strict harmony with the course of the ultra
Radicals throughout. They dodged the vote
upon the paasage of the amendment in all cases,
and were always on hand when it came to vote
upon reconsideration. Grant says he wants
peace, but they would not have it for any money.
’ The practical result of the failure of the fif
teenth amendment win amply be the reassem
bling of the negro'Legislature at the cost of
about two hundred thousand dollars to the peo
ple, and its passage by that body. He is ver
dant who supposes Georgia is not to be compelled
to endorse that amendment by hook or by erode;
and we are not prepared to say that an endorse
ment by this Legislature would have been ac
cepted if it had been made, and tee certainly
would not have made it.
There was, in truth, but one course for this
Legislature to have punned, in harmony with
the interests of the people. It should in tcao
days have determined what it could do to
make fair weather with Congress, and then ad
journed short off, in order not to burden the
people with the expenses of tire Legislatures,
which, in all human probability, are now inev
itable.
Instead of that they have held on at $9 a day,
and have displayed a recklessness in all their
expenditures and appropriations, which we do
not like to characterize in appropriate terms.
After this shameful profligacy, they go home
and give place to a second onslaught upon the
people—another session of the original piebald
Legislature, who will repudiate all they have
done and bleed the people a few hundred thou
sand more. Such scandalous indifference to
every interest of an oppressed and impover
ished people—such contempt of all representa
tive doty, we have never before witnessed or im
agined. And, if Democrats are guilty of it, who
are supposed to represent a constituency which
win suffer from each malversation, what can be
hoped or expected of others who claim ateon-
stituency which will not suffer to the amount of
a dollar, no matter what corruption or waste is
perpetrated ?
We have been equally amused and amazed
at the comae of diacnasion upon this fif
teenth amendment ? Some democratic mem
bers, in the effort to kill it, assert roundly that
the right to rota carries with it inevitably the
right to hold office ; and, if so. it is clear they
were false to their oaths in voting out the col
ored members. That is the ground taken by
the Governor, and if it be correct, evidently the
constitution was violated when the negroes were
declared ineligible.
The session of Wednesday ended, appropri
ately enough, in a sort of general row, with the
praiseworthy object to defeat the purchase of
the Opera House ss a capitol, in contempt of all
the stipulations under which, in an evil day, the
capital was carried to Atlanta. That, like the
fifteenth amendment, will probably be perpetra
ted, should it fail to pais this seerion of the Leg
islature. The purchase of a new capitol build
ing at such a juncture aa this will be a fitting
climax to the operations of this General As
sembly.
Yesterday was fixed for adjournment tun die,
end we hope the Legislature has stock to it If
we could not have another in ten yean we should
rejoice all the more. *
The Governor ol Keulnrky and the
Fifteenth Amendment.
In transmitting the fifteenth amendment to
Constitution to the Legislature of Kentucky,
Gov. John W. Stevenson discusses its merits at
length.
He says the direct effect of its ratification
will be the subversion of our present system of
governments, in that it will ignore the relations
existing between the States and the United
States; obliterate and destroy the division be
tween the delegated powers vested in the general
Government and those vested in the States; it
utterly absorbs the reserved rights of the States ;
its purpose is to annihilate State governments.
“It takes from them powers expressly vested
and reserved; and by abrogating the partition
of power between the Federal and State govern
ments, whose mutual action and reaction were
looked to by our fathers as checks to prevent
either from encroaching on and absorbing the
powers of the other, and as limitations to keep
each other within its proper sphqge, utterly de
stroys the equilibrium of the entire system. The
result must be, that a consolidated central gov
ernment, with the States aa mere abject append
ages, will supplant the wise and beneficial du
plex system of government formed by the Con
stitution of the United States in 1787.”
It is revolution. It destroys and supersedes
the original sovereign power of the several
States. “This amendment elevates the Fed
eral Government to the absolute and supreme
authority in our federal system against the in
tention of the framers of the Government.
against the letter and spirit of the Constitution,
and in violation of the understanding of the
people of the States when they ratified and
adopted it” “Above all,” he says, “the
amendment is sought to be ratified by Legisla
tures chosen by the people before this amend
ment had passed the Congress of the United
States, and, therefore, not chosen as agents,
who can safely, in their action, reflect the pop
ular wiH in adopting or rejecting it” In con
clusion, he admonishes the Legislature to yield
to no wild theory, to attempt no rash experi
ment ! “History and experience both admon
ish ns that a period of angry, passionate, po
litical excitement is no time to meddle with
the limitations and checks of our fundament
al law, placed there by the wisdom of our
fathers as barriers against the frenzy of popular
excesses. Let us rather stand with stouter
hearts than ever by the old charter of our
rights!” ’ \>
As there is next to no Radical party in Ken
tucky, of course the amendment will be over
whelmingly voted down by the Legislature.
Congress has never attempted any direct inter
ference with the internal affairs in that State,
and therefore the negroes are not allowed to
vote and hold office. This amendment was par
tially suggested for the benefit of that and other
Southern States which did not secede and which
gave the Radical Congress no excuse to impose
governments upon them. The people of Ken
tucky have never been under its hack, and still
lift up their heads and speak boldly as freemen
did of yore. ~ ~ J
Meningitis In Sandersrille.
The Central Georgian, of the 17th, announces
several deaths of cerebro spinal Meningitis, in
Sandersville. Two young men, brothers, John
and Ezekiel Kelly, aged respectively seventeen
^nd nineteen, died on the Oth and 10th instant,
after an illness of a few hours. "Willie Newman,
son of Mark Newman, died on the 14th, at the
age of twelve years. Flora Brantley, daughter of
Dr. S. D. Brantley, died on the 16th, and an in
fant daughter of the same gentleman was very
sick. Other cases were reported on Tuesday
morning.
The New York Tribune highly -compliment*
General Breckinridge for bis decision not again
to enter into political strife.
A Model PkilaatliropisL .
Wendell Philips is a very perfect embodiment
of the modern philanthropist. - In one of his
recent speeches he invokes Congress to “ cover
the South with cannons, bannert and scaffolds,
till full security of person and property is en
joyed, and till it can be said, with truth, we wiH
have peace.” — - - — — -j
In the spirit, Philips is a cross between one of
Mahammed's armed propagandists and Crom
well'* .roundheads—in the flesh, however, he.
prefers scolding to fighting. He is hot for rec
tifying an wrongs with halter, sword and bayo
net—with fire and murder—provided he him
self is left at home to dp his tea and lecture, and
not called upon to furnish any of the supplies
or pocket money necessary to the operation.—
He loves his dollars, of which hejias a great
many, and he would not have one of them miss
ing cm any account.
He has, also, a profound esteem for Philips.
He thinlra Philips is the greatest genius of the
age, and count* confidently on length of day*
for him from the very impossibility that Provi
dence will be able to manage the world without
PhiUpa. The problem which pozzles'hitn most
of all is how the world got along before Philip*
was created. The unaccountable delay attend;
ing that event would mortify Philips very much
did he not see that the confusion affair* got into
compelled Providence to send Philip* into the
world to straighten them.
Philip* love* the people so well that he could
kill every one of them for not behaving better
and doing aa he tell* them to do.' It delights
his philanthropic soul to see their heads smashed
for being so contrary and obstinate.
He is an ardent devotee of civil liberty, which
conaiats in covering the land with cannons, ban
ners and scaffolds. He is “ consecrated" to
liberty of speech, which lies mostly in lecture*
by Philips, mod let no devil of a hearer dare
wag his tongue in opposition, on pain of death.
The milk of human kindness flowing from
Philips’ breast is of the most valuable character.
In a co-agulated state it has been reduced to sul
phuric acid and bleaching powder and used in
the Lawrence Mills for many years. It will start
any color except wool-dyed African black, upon
which it win only take the hair off and raise a
blister.
Philips despises ell conservatism except in
respect to his own property and person; but if
there is anything he thoroughly loathes it is to
see sny other men weigh prudential considera
tions «g«inst his lectures. Every such man is a
dough-face, a dastard and a traitor.
Wendell Philips is a scholar principally in the
department of invective. He finds his vocabu
lary much circumscribed by the meagre resour
ce* of Webster's largest dictionary, and spends
days and nights and much green tea in elabora
ting from its scanty resources those compound
and conglomerate expressions of scorn and
abhorrence which so much enliven and adorn his
lectures and mark him the leading authority of
the age in the science of objurgation.
He is, in truth, an Alkaline philanthropist of
the most improved species. Like Balaam, he
is a prophet of wrath, but can beat Balaam and
his beast both in the way of talking. He is the
prince of scolds—the Demosthenes of denoun-
oers. His bosom warms to humanity like Nebu
chadnezzar’s fiery furnace. His heart over
flows upon human wrongs and human woes and
follies like the craterof Vesuvius or Manna Loa.
His team of sympathy blister wherever they fall.
Before Philips and Brownlow die, Boston
should make baste and found a College of Blis
tering Billingsgate ; or it may be feared they
will go up or down and leave nobody worthy to
taka their mantles. . Let these great.masters in
the art of objurgation take a clan of disciples
forthwith before their anathemas are blunted in
the decrepitude end imbecility of age. Build
them a hall—put the big organ in it—summon
the boy call Abby Kelly, Cady Stanton, Susan
B. Anthony, Annie Dickinson, and let them all
blow together till they are hoarse.
The Pressure of the Ofllee Keekers.
The following is a special dispatch from Wash
ington to the New York Times:
The pressure for office is beyond conception.
It is far beyond that of 1865, and fully equal to
the pressure of 1861, when there was a radical
change in the administration from Democratic
to Republican. Members of Congress are be
sieged in the most unmerciful manner. They
bar their doors against the army of comers,
they approach their lodgings through alley-ways
and by back staircases, to avoid the applicants
They seek refuge in the out-of-way places, and
pass sleepless nights because of the anxious
throng who besiege them at all hours and upon
all occasions.
Whst is worse about it is that in the chaotic up
heaval of tilings political here, it is impossible,
even for members of Congress, to tell, with any
thing like certainty, what they may expect—
Never was there a worse time for calculations
for patronage based solely on political service.
Slates are at a discount—they are made and un
made daily. Recommendations for office are
little better. Nothing is so efficacious except
strong personal influence, which carries with it
a solid conviction of worth and merit Impecu
nious office etuksra are rapidly losing their pa-
tience. Their resources are rapidly becoming
exhausted, and in a few day hundreds of them
will depart, sadder it not wiser men. Very lit
tle progress can be made on any subject until
this office pressure abates; it occupies three-
fourths of the President’s time and the time of.
his Secretary.
President Grant is growing weary and ex
hausted under it and he is daily drawing the
lme closer as to the number and character of
visitoiri This he moat do; or cease to be any
thing more than a mere listener to the wants,
claims and desires of thousand of people, with
out power to act
It will take about thirty day for this state of
things to abate. An early adjournment of Con
gress will greatly facilitate it
“Southern Representatives and Senators.—
See, say the New York Express, how six of the
Southern States are represented in the Senate
of' the 41st Congress:
Alabama, Willard Warner, of Ohio; George
E. Spencer, of New York. Arkansas, Alex. Mc
Donald, of Illinois; Benj. F. Rice, of Maine.
Florida, Thomas W. Osborne, of New York;
Abijah Gilbert, of Michigan; Louisiana. Wm.
Pitt Kellogg, of Illinois; Jno. 8. Harris, of Penn

The Fifteenth Amendment in the West.—
The Legislature of Minnesota, largely Radical
in both branches, has refused to act upon the
proposed Fifteenth Article of the Constitution
of the United States at.this session, and the
leading Republican press of the State commends
“its decency in refraining from intermeddling”
with the question at all.
The Cincinnati. Gazette, the ablest of Western
Radical journals, is decidedly opposed to its rat-
ification, and calls it a “botch” which “will not
withstand popular discussion.” The Gazette
also predicts that “a Legislature could not be
chosen in Ohio which would adopt it.”
The Indiana Democratic members of the Leg
islature resigned in order to defeat its ratification
by leaving that body without a quorum. Gov
ernor Baker (Republican) has issued writs for
an election to fill said vacancies, and all the
members are again candidates, with the avowed
determination, if elected, to resign again, if nec
essary, to prevent its adoption.
What a striking contrast to our own Legisla
ture does the action of these Western men pre
sent ? Where is now the boasted political integ
rity of Georgia Democratic legislators ?

PsstxnzNT Grant had to recast his Cabinet.
He didn’t cast it according to the notions of his
friends. AH of them wanted to have oasts of
their own. F«ch had a cast in his eye.
Several Northern papers speak rather de-
spondingljr of prospects of their section^ If
the North wants to borrow trouble, the South
has enough to lend.
Washington is overflowing with a boundless
multitude of people. Many of them sleep in
tents, and not a few in the open air. Take out
the office-hunters, however, and there wouldn’t
be half enough left to support the hotels and
boarding-houses. ' •
The Washington correspondent of the Port
land Advertiser says that Gen. Butler lately
“lost his eyesight entirely for three-fourths of
an hour.” We suppose that when he recovered
it he felt a sight better.
Seven ii’-two years ago, Washington, and
thirty T two years ago, Jackson, as each laid aside
the cares and responsibilities of office, delivered
a farewell address.—N. T. Commercial.
So Washington and Jackson, you say, “ deliv
ered a farewell address. Could they get up only
one between them ?
About six weeks ago Era Wentworth, of this
city, accidentally cut off the thumb of her left
hand. Dr. Griswold was called in, and, upon
examination of the wound, concluded to try an
experiment. He took the severed piece—which
I ii«s lain in a cold room for an hour and ten
minutes and was apparently dead—moistened it
in warm water, and fastened it to its place.—
Soon the parts began to unite, new skin formed.
,n<l s new ntil is now growing. When we saw
the thumb, a few days, ago, it was nearly well;
the girl could use it, and there is scarcely any
scar visible.—CireleciUe Democrat.
Awtul !—The Columbus Sun says:
“We heard a prominent and intelligent gen
tleman, who has spent some weeks at Atlanta,
remark that the Radicals in the Legislature pos
sessed more dinity, intelligence and honesty
than the Democrats.”
They must be nice Democrats. They must
be dear, if the above be true, at a plug of tobac
co per diem, much lets nine dollars per day and
