The Constitutionalist on Policy.
Oar friend of the Constitutionalist having
fought to the depth of his gaff on principle, con
siders policy in the following from that paper of
the 7th:
It is not our purpose to rehash the matter as
a legal Question, and we shall positively per
mit “old ret adjudieata" to take a snooze of
infinite duration, if need be. Bat, we are
called upon, at the present stage of the drama,
to consider the best policy to be pursued, un
der the circnmstanoee, by the members of the
Assembly who hold the seats of the expelled
negroes. Principle seems, for the nonce, to
have gone to the “demnition bow-wows,” and
so we are obliged to look at this thing in tbo
light of policy. The more sagacious and clear
headed of oor public men and political pastors
agree that, should the members who hold tho
seats of the negroes resign, their resignation
ought to be voluntary, and not not caused by
any compulsion, public or private. If such a
resignation took place, it would, of course, be
on the understanding that Mr. Bollock shonld
order a new election. Now, here is tho diffi
culty. Nobody that wo know of bclioves that
Bullock would do anything of the kind. It is
not at all likely that bo wonld recognize any va
cancies. On the contrary, he wonld take tho
position that the ousting of the black members
was void, and, therefore, no vacancies were
created by it. Even tho Macon Taxanxrn
admits that this wonld probably be Mr. Bol
lock's course. Bat, thus conceding, the Tnx-
obipr goes on to say that Judge Speer has in
dicated what shonld be the true method of pro
cedure, even though the resignations had taken
place, and tho “Governor” refosod to recognize
vacancies. We infer that Jndge Speer and the
TFj.iwikarn prefer unconditional resignations
on tho part of the white members now holding
the places of the expelled negroes, and an un
conditional return and reinstatement of the
aforesaid negroes. This tho Tzuoxanx calls a
straight, politic, constitutional, sensible, profita
ble and manly way out of the dilemma.” Without
stopping to cavil about our respeoted contem
porary’s choice of adjectives, we will suppose
that his sole object in this position taken is to
put Bullock in tbo wrong absolutely, and thus
give his opponents a supposed advantage in tho
argument before the country. In other words,
tho old game of policy is to bo played over again.
True, this thing of “policy" has not done much
for ns in the past; quite the oontrary indeed.—
But who knows what great things it may do for
ns hereafter ? True, the compromises we have
made with a false Congress have been most ef
fectually Ignored in other days. Bnt who knows
l>nt Congress may have a spasm of honesty when
tbo Georgia Logialatnro weloomo book Sambo
nnd Coffee, with tokens of milenness or delight,
or, let ns say, a mixture of either from persons
of different complexions of opinion? If the
white membors resign theirseats unconditional
ly to the negroes, it would be what some people
call magnanimity; but if they thus resign with
the expectation of commending their greatness
of son! to the littleness of spirit of tho Radical
.Congress, they will bo victims of misplaced con
fidence. We suppose we shall have to ehroniele
this humiliation for policy's sake. It looks very
much that way. It is the legitimate result of
tho great blander our people insisted npon com
mitting in that stupendous yotit of policy run
mad—1865.
Well, if anybody will show ns the best and ea
siest way of getting out of this difficulty, that is
tho precise road wo are in quest of—that is our
“policy,” friend Constitutionalist. Wo want to
compromise this difficulty at thn lowest price
nnd on the easiest terms, and that in truth was
all that was left to ns after tho snrronder. We
had nothing to do with politics “in that stupen
dous year of policy rnn mad—1865.” Bat it is
dear to ns that we had no other course then,
and if w* had gone to tho radicals and bought
thorn off otftheir own terms, we shonld have
escaped negro suffrage which was not then pro
posed.
Bat orery point we have so far made against
these radicals lias resulted in defeat and lorn,
and so will this one, if we stand on ret euljudi-
rata and the right of the legislature to keep ont
tho negro members notwithstanding the decision.
We will talk about principle with our friend,
when wo get ont of the hands of tho Philistines
nnd have to deal with peoplo who haro any re
spect for it. Bnt if over tho Constitutionalist
gets into tho hands of foot-pads, ho will not ex-
peet to nave himself by a homily on tho ten
commandments. Ho win try some other means
of self-extrication He will bay them off, if
possiblo, nnd save his sermon for men who will
appreciate it.
That was our condition in 1805 and still re
mains onr condition, and most remain so, until,
if ever, the American people get tired of a gov
ernment outside of principle and law. Moon-
* while, wo have got to live—wo must moke our
selves as comfortable as we can, under tho cir
cumstances, and console ourselves with whatever
hope the future offers.
The Fourth of July.
Louis tills, Kv., July 4,1809.
Kiiiort Telegraph: Notwithstanding the holy
Sabbath raigns around ns, the heavy boom of
eannon at brief intervals breaks npon the ear,
spioed by an occasional villainous clatter of fire
crackers or tbo sharp explosion of a pistol shot
in the hands of some defiant rowdy who takes
this method of respectfully informing his more
qniet fellow-citizens that he is the hearer of con
cealed weapons, which, if necessary, ho can use
for a more serious purpose than that which now
engages his attention.
Tea, it is the Fourth of July; and what of it?
Where now are tho precious memories, the
cred associations it awakened, ante Mlum, in
the minds of all? Alas! for tho American peo
ple, the blessings onoe bo dearly prized are now
obscured and tarnished by the unpatriotic trick
ery, the venality and corruption of modern,
small fry, party politicians.
Let us, however, still cherish the fond hope
that in the coming timo tho light of order, law
and liberty will again shine in npon the blind
ness and party prejudioe that control the hour
and which of itself would cause any right think
ing man, if visiting a foreign land, ashamed to
admit himself an American citizen.
For seversl days tho weather at.this point has
been intensely warm though net unseasonably
so. The city is very dull, yet we are promised
a lively time during the coming week. The
Cresoent City Circus will spread its ample can
vas on to-morrow evening competing for several
days and nights with Newcomb's Minstrels who
Wto Q” here. Onr school exhibitions have all
ended, many of them affording both pleasure
and profit to all classes. The health of the city
was never better, the long sultry days are suc
ceeded by the most delicious evenings and we
are nightly fanned by the cool tea breens steal
ing to us from the Indiana shore. From all
parts of tho State tho glad tidings come of a glo
rious, bountiful harvest, and a bland smile of
satisfaction and content lingers npon the faces
of men who have hitherto suffered at the hands
of those whose amiable proclivities are to mo
nopolize the provision market and exact the
most exorbitant prices for the absolute neces
saries of life. Let Heaven be praised that for
once the winds are tempered to the thorn lambs
and that there will be plenty to cat and to spare.
Then if onr bank accounts are not so satisfac-
tory, still if our granaries are filled to repletion
we can stare fate in tbo face and look forward
with bright hope to the better time coming.
CUE JTZW UiTr.noirt
The city papers have been literally teeming
with exultations over the railway making direct
communication with Cincinnati. Both dries
feel confident that it will conduce to the pros
perity of each.
On Tuesday of last week our City Council en
joyed the hospitalities of Cincinnati, which will
be only reciprocated by ns on Thursday next,
the timo set apart for a visit by the Council of
the “Queen City” so-called. It is the determin
ation of Louisville to extend them such a wel
come that they will defer, for several years,' the
foolish project of building a direct communica
tion with the South, thus leaving the dty of the
foils out in the cold. "Wo will give them a real
old-fashioned Kentucky welcomo when they
come; still feeling in our own hearts that they
will, nevertheless, bear watching.
Onr mercantile interests seem to be still thriv
ing, oven at this dull season of the year. But all
are anticipating a tremendous revival in busi
ness on the approach of the fall months.
The building prospects are very good, and
real estate exchange manifests no abatement
whatever. It only remains for onr merchants
to manifest the proper spirit of enterprise, and
our success will place ns speedily beyond the
fear of any rivalry however formidable. Nout
verront. O. L. 8.
Tho Macon Post-Mauler.
The Chronicle and Sentinel of 'Wednesday
morning has the following:
Ghint's Postmaster.—Through private sour
ces, wo learned yesterday that the examination
of II. M. Tomer and tho two negro women who
have been arrested recently for passing bogus
money, is still progressing before Unitoa States
Commissioner Sthitb, in Atlanta. The proceed
ings are kept secret, for what reason wo don't
know, bnt we are informed that Tomer con
fessed his guilt, bnt implicates a man in Wash
ington city as being at the hood of the affair.—
Efforts have also been made to induce Lieut.
Murphy to proceed to Washington to arrest this
party, bat he has ref nsed to go nntil be secs
what disposition will be made of Turner and
his associate*. The extraordinary secrecy with
which tho Halted States officials at Atlanta are
conducting what should be a public examina
tion, seems a little ominons, and, wo are afraid
that some scheme is on foot by which Tomer
will be enabled to esoapo from the punishment
bo shonld reoeive, if he be guilty of the crime
with which he is charged. It would certainly
be a bitter mortification to President Grant if
this negro Turner, whom he appointed to office
in the fsoe of such strong opposition for no
other cause than that he was a negro, and a de
sire to humiliate the people of Georgia, shonld
be convicted of a felony so soon after his instal
lation in offioe, and United States officers, as a
general thing, are not very anxious to do any
thing which wonld, perhaps, offend the head of
the Government We await further . develop
ments to see if onr suspicions will be confirmed.
The only mention we have so far found of the
matter in the Atlanta papers, is found in tho
following from the Constitution of Taoedsy
evening:
Bound Otxb.—A bright mulatto woman
named Marian Harris, was arrested not long
sinee at the ear shed by Tim Mniphy, on a tel
egram from Augusta stating that she had passed*
spnrioas money in that city. On yesterday and
the day previous, she was np before United
Htales Commissioner W. B. Smith. She waived
an examination, and the Commissioner announc
ed that he wonld require her to givo a bond of
$1,600, which, it is thought^ she will do to-day.
The MSa were of the denominations of $50s
and $100*, on the Fourth National Bank of New
Jersey. They were genuine bills, bnt tho sig
natures were forged. Gen. L. J. Gartrell ap
peared aa her counsel. It is rumored that sho
made a quasi-confession, bnt not enough to suf
ficiently implicate the party.
This is as late information as the Chronicle
and Sentinel oould have had. Tamer returned
to Macon Tuesday night, and it is quite evident
the Chronicle and Sentinel has been widely
misled on tho subject. Meanwhile, wo have
no information, except such as has been receiv
ed from Tamer himself, which we published
yesterday. In yesterday’s paper the following
statement appeared in the press dispatches:
“Tomer, the negro post-master of Macon,
telegraphs the Department that ho has taken
panesmoo of the post-offioe, bnt that all the
white clerks have left. He asks for instruc
tions."
In reference to this dispatch Tomer sono-t
the following:
FosT-omci, Macon, Go., - 1809.
“I took possession of tho post-office on July
tbo first A largo number of money orders not
paid. No money on hand. I wrote yon on tho
:td. H. M. TrnOTB.”
To the First Assistant P. M. General.
EdUon of the THergaph .-—This is n true
(copy) of my dispatch to Washington. I said
nothing abont clerks leaving, etc.

From Crawlord County—'The Crops—
Deplorable Case of Stabbing.
Knoxville, Ok., July 0, 1809.
Editort Telegraph : Onr farmers are still in
the best of spirits, and at present everything
bids fair for a most bounteous and plentiful
yield.
Nothing has happened worthy of note here
for several weeks, except a little stabbing affair
which occurred here yesterday evening, tho out
lines of which we proposo to givo yon- Lanrenco
Cherry, a white man residing six or seven miles
from town, attacked and stabbed Bobt. Castlo-
berry, a negro blacksmith residing in town.—
He wound was inflicted in the right breast; is
serious bnt not dangerous. This was a most
brutal and outrageous affair on tho port of
Cherry. Castleberry is one of tho most orderly
and polite negroes in the county, and gentlemen
who witnessed tho affair assert that he had given
no provocation whatever.
Tho object of this is not to prejudice the
minds of the publio against Cherry, but we
simply desire to say that tho mass of our peo
ple condemn, from the bottom of their hearts,
all such acts of lawlessness, and that the civil
authorities here are taking the proper steps to
have the matter thoroughly investigated.—
Cherry, we understand, was drunk. Justice.

A T.TTTftK "WHICH HAS BEEN A LOXO TIME ON ITS
TRAVELS.
Teickem, Giu, June 26, 1869.
Editor» Tdeyraph : Not seeing any commn-
nication in your valuable paper from our part
of old Jasper, as regards crops. I 'will say the
crops east and southeast of Monti cello are fine as
I ever saw them. Wheat La*, generally, been
thrashed, and it far exceeded the expecta
tions of the most sanguine. Oats very fine.
Cotton on good and medium land, where fer
tilizers were nsed, is from over half-leg to knee
high. Corn is forward, and I think better than
it has been for a number of years, and enough
baa been planted for home consumption, if the
seasons continue two weeks longer. Fertilizers
have been paying up to this time all of 300 per
cent. Freedmen working well, but I am afraid
the late decision of the so-called Supreme Court
of Georgia will have a tendency to demoralize
them. Respectfully, R. F. E.
