THE CONSTITUTION. ATLANTA, GEORGIA, JUNE 14. BT Congress did not believe assertions of the busy faction that subsidized For ney’s Chronicle. HT 1 The revival of the material interests of Georgia will proceed with rapidity as soon as the political status of the State is so determined as to give her people an equitable voice in legislation. taF" Notwithstanding the extravagant expenditures of the State government, there are among us some bold capitalists who shrink not from making investments and embarking in enterprises, on account of which they receive the spontaneous plaudits of the people. BP The “ prolongatlonists ” of Georgia have defeated the inauguration of public schools in the City of Atlanta. The Hoard of Education only awaits an amendment to the City Charter that they may vigor ously push forward the work assigned them. ts- The special pleading of the “ pro- longationists” has rendered the General Assembly inert. The children of this city are debarred the privileges of free schools while political gamblers shuffle their cards and stock them upon an unsuspecting peo ple. tar Under military rule, (the peaceful disposition of the people denied.) in order that political mountebanks may aggran dize themselves, (capital ever sensitive,) is wary of investment in our State. Hcncc, thousands already in the State, and thou sands desiring to immigrate thither, are deterred from enterprises that would not only prollt themselves, but greatly benefit the people at large. ___ -j~««- tar It is untrue, as often asserted for po litical effect, that our pcoplo object to Northern immigrants. Their contempt for political mountebanks is acknowledged Tliore birds of passage, who flocked to the Southern States soon after the war, to prey upon the wrecked fortunesof the Southern people, arc universally despised, and ought to be by all good citizens. This is not be cause they are Republicans. It is because they are not representative men of their party North. HTPolitical mountebanks in the South, in the name of the Republican party, have committed many actsjof tyranny, and con tinue persistently to slander a defeated people. Tliis, too, after that people, in good faith, laid down their arms and took the oath of allegiance to the Federal Gov ernment. They have studiously and zeal ously misrepresented the disposition of the people. Thus they have instigated Their party friends to unnecessary expenditure of time and money in the reconstruction of the lately rebellious States. They have betrayed their party in Congress into acts of legislation which will not be sanctioned by their constituents in the North when they calmly receive the history of civil and military affairs in the South during the last flvo years. Of Ur. Dickens, The Cossimmox of Sunday last contained a brief notice, very feebly expressive of the popular regret for his demise. Now, we record the death of W. Gilmore Simms, whose fame extends wherever the English language is spoken- Born, edu cated, and for almost all bis life a resident of our sister State of South Carolina, he was almost our familiar neighbor. He was of Irish descent and born in Charleston, South Carolina, April 17,1806. At the time of bis death, on day before yesterday, he was more than sixty-four years old. He began to write verses at the age of seven, and during the war of 1812, his chief em ployment was to compose rhymed narra- tivesof thecxploits of our navy. Forsevcral years he was employed in a drug and chem ical store, which be quitted to study law at the age of eighteen. He married at twen ty, and at twenty-two was admitted to the bar. Be practiced his profession only one year, when he embarked in journalism as editor and part proprietor of the “Charles ton Gazette.” Having, in 1832. taken part in favor of the Union, and against the nullifiers, the “Gazette” lost Its patronage and Mr. Simms became almost penniless. Having lost his grand-mother, father and'wife, he left Charleston for the North, and at ning- liam, Mass., composed bis longest and best poem, entitled “ Atlantis,” a story of the sea. He afterwards returned to the South, and for many years resided on bis plantation, near Midway, S. C. As an author he was industrious and methodical. His genius was versatile, and equally brilliant, wheth er illuminating a daily journal, contrib uting to the pages of staid and dignified magazines, collating history, inventing flctitlous narratives, or thrilling the hearts and stirring the souls of his readers by poetic imagery. Numerous biographical sketches of the statesmen, soldiers and au thors of his native State were written by him. Few men lived in his day and generation whose pen was more busily employed Few who wrote as much, wrote less that was common-place; and few so universally delighted his readers. As an evidenceof his general popularity in this city, we state* as a fact derived from the Librarian of the Young Men’s Library Association, that the works of Mr. Gilmore Simms are more sought after by the pa trons of that institution, both male and fe male, than those of any other author, save alone Charles Dickens. Among the great merits of Mr. Simms as an author, may justly be mentioned the parity of his diction and the soundness of the morals he inculcated, peculiarities which have been too orten wanting in the clTusions of many popular writers of the present day. The people of the South justly boast of liis national and world-wide fame as an author. His being Southern born is only an incident, or accidcut, in his history which mayhap contributed little to the winning of his justly deserved fame. It has, however, enshrined him in the afflic tions of the Southern people. In their hearts they mourn him dead, for during life the loved and admired him as a noble, chivalrous and high-toned gentleman. tF Our State is still out of the Union, in spite of a sincere effort of the Republican members of Congress to promote its re construction. Congress passed the net of December, 1809, entitled an “ Act to pro mote the Reconstruction of Georgia,” and were imposed upon by a conspiracy secret ly entered into to take a technical advan tage thereof, to prolong the term of office of the Governor and Legislature. Bingham, and a majority of the House of Representatives, proposed to clieck-mate this movement. Immediately upon the passage of his amendment, a howl was raised against the people of Georgia. It was asserted that the lives of loyal men were in danger—that if an election wero held this fall another rc- ibcilion might occur. Neither the Breckinridge, nor the Douglas platform in 18G0, announced the doctrine of the right of a State peaceably to secede from the Union. Andrew Jack son, Abraham Lincoln and Andrew John son, and all their predecessors, except John Adams, the old Alien and Sedition Law Advocate, urged that the States have “ re served rights” under the Constitution of the Union. They contended that the ballot-box, and not the cartridge-box, is the best means of securing those rights and enforcing them The Centralists of the present day pre tend to trace their pedigree back to Jack- son, Lincoln and Johnson. The people know that they are bastard Republicans— illegitimates begotten during the demoral ization consequent upon the late civil war. Death of William Gilmore Simms- A telegraphic dispatch announces the death of William Gilmore Simms. In the Republic of Letters, neither nationality nor section is known. In thcTcmple of Fame none arc entitled to an indelible inscrip tion in that apartment devoted to the memory of successful devotees of belle tettres or the humanities, save those who by merit have won a claim thereto. Among politicians, statesmen and mili tary heroes, there aro many famous names that owe their historic lustre and prestige to accidental causes. Not so with men of letters. The scientific savan,or the author, must rely upon his Individual industry nnd genius to work his way to fame. Ho has, perhaps, less of the sympathy of the masses of mankind, because of this very isolation. The “thoughts that breathe and the words that burn,” and find utterance at the point of the pen, wielded by an author, (though they may elevate the soul nnd stir the heart’s emotion,) rarely excite that warm personal affection for the author which the charge at the Bridge of Lodi nroused in the breasts of the followers of the Little Corporal, or the stormy passage of tlio Delewaro infused into the half-naked and bare-footed veterans who obeyed the call of the Father of his Country. Each and every man flatters himself that, bad circumstances luckily combined, he, too, at some period of bis career, might have been a Napoleon or a Washington Thus, in the contemplation of the exploits of heroes, the vanity of men is pleased and flattered. Not so in the contemplation of the lives of poets, or the clnssiquc writers of an cient or modern times. For, while their works may delight and edify and elevate us by reading and studying them, we are loth to grant to them that meed of affec tion and praise to which, as benefactors of their race, they are entitled. Their exploits and their works owe not their merit, brilliancy or perennial vigor to circumstances, accidents or causes ex traneous to the minds of their authors. They live and are present every where and at all times. But, while they delight the mass of men, they do do not flatter their •elf-esteem. Few who read the immortal works of Sbakspearc, of Homer, of Kotz ebue. of Voltaire, of Milton, of Prescott, or Macaulay, and others whose very names ore classic, flatter themselves that they too could have done likewise under the same circumstances and in like situations. There are, therefore, some things unsym pathetic in the isolated and retired and sol itary life of an author. It is only occa sionally that thcjpopular heart throbs in sorrow at the announcement of the death ol a great literary man. When such men as Charles Dickens, who touched the popular heart by striking hopefully and good humorcdly the chords that thrill in sympathy with suffering and struggling humanity, and W. Gilmore Simms whose genius was ever, whether courting the poetic or historic muses, or cultivating the nobler emotions of the soul by depicting human nature in fictitious narratives, “shake off the mortal coil,” the popular impulse, contemning the selfish ness of man’s nature, lays aside the digni fied reserve that usually represses utter ances of sorrow for the death of votaries muses* WATEK-WOBKS. General Bragg’s Services May l»e Secured as Consulting Engineer. Since the action of the City Council, look ing to an investigation of the practicabili ty of erecting watcr-work3 to supply the city with water, we have learned that there is a company of enterprising citizens al ready organized under a charter from the State, who have been making some prelim inary. investigations. We have been per mitted to peruse a letter from General Brax ton Bragg, who has had large experience as a hydraulic and civil engineer. From the data furnished him by the company, he thinks the plan proposed by them is feasi ble. Of course he reserves his final judg ment until be can actually survey the ground. While we regret to know that the General is out of employment, having been superseded os Superintendent of the New Orleans Water-works by a Radical suc cessor, we are rejoiced to know that bis ser vices, if desired, may be secured as con suiting engineer, both in planning and con structing water-works for Atlanta. Now,here is an opportunity that ought not to be let slip. Whatever may be the opin ions of some as to the General’s military ge nius, all who know him unite in bearing tes timony to his skill as an engineer, and his incorruptible honesty and earnestness of purpose. and children may be dependent, at the sug gestion of a malignant partisan, is thus liable to be carried out of his own county for trial. It is no marvel that the masses through out the Northern States are rising up and setting theses! of their condemnation upon the party that is so blindly oblivious of the sacred rights of Individuals. The people of the South since the war have seen their fellow-citizens dragged from their homes by military satraps, put in sweat-boxes, and compelled to remain there weeks and months ignorant of the charges against them. Civil Courts, how ever distant from their homes, they great ly prefer to military commissions. Hence, notwithstanding the passage of the En forcement Act so odious to their Northern fellow-citizens, they are quiet and serene. As they have no power to remedy the ills under which the people groan, they say to those who have wounded themselves with the missiles directed against the down trodden people of the South, “Physicians, heal yourselves.” OUIl WASHINGTON LETTER; Congressional—Another Blow at States Rights—Personal Abuse in the House and Senate—Ex- tiovernor Bard and the True Georgian—Washington Chat. Special Correspondence Atlanta Constitution.) Washington- June 8, 1S70. The first half of this Congressional week has passed without an incident of a start ling character. In the Senate, on Monday, Mr. Stewart introduced a bill intended to break up the system of Coolie contracts,- by which the Chinese laborers are imported into this country and held to labor for four years. Stewart is from the rotten borough of Ne vada, and is a crazy-headed fanatic. He scents slavery in the air; and as the ne groes cannot, or will not, supply the de mand for labor in the.Soutb, he is desirous that no other class should. This is the way in whicii such men os Stewart exemplify their “loyalty.” The Senate refused to consider an amend ment to its rule, which would have tended to choke off debate. Private bills were rained upon the Speak er’s table in the Houseon Monday. Mr. Schcnck’s tax bill, and his tariff amendment, to the same, were - finally squeezed through. Yesterday, in the Senate. Chandler tried to get up the bill to provide for an Air- Line Railroad lrom-Washington to New York, but did not succeed. A striking fea ture in this bill is, that it grants the right of way through States without say ing, “ by 70ur leave” to the States whose territory I s invaded. It is another blow at States’ rights, and another stride toward a Con gressional despotism. In the Senate to-day the San Domingo job came up in a new shape, on the memo rial of one Hatch, who was imprisoned by the authorities, and alleges his detention was due to General Babcock, in order that certain treaty operations of the General might not be exposed. Mr. Chandler said Hatch was a scoundrel, and not to he be lieved. Mr. Henry, who presented the me morial, said Hatch was as worthy of cre dence as Chandler; and both Ferry and Sumner thought Babcock ought to be cash iered. Nye and Drake thought differently. Finally, the matter was referred to a select committee of seven. The Indian Appropri ation bill was then resumed. In the House Mr. Fitch made a personal explanation with regard to a statement in the Washington correspondence of the New York Evening Post, connecting him with the Cuban bond lobby. He said the Post’s correspondent was a ~ wicked and coward ly liar,” and that his statements were un mitigated falsehoods. The debate on the Funding bill commenced yesterday, and X.ocal News.

Is it possible that Dr. Bard can in .any way represent the true senti ments of the people of Georgia ? If so,poor Georgia must indeed be given over to ve nality and prostitution. It should not be forgotten that Bard exerted himself to af flict the true people of Georgia with bis Ox- cellency, Rufus Brutus, the express agent —that for his support of Bullock and villi- fleation of all true Georgians, he was made State printer, and received for such ser vices the most extravagant compensation It should be remembered that Bard's paper was the vehicle of abuse and slander nsed by Bullock & Co., until there arose a ques tion of additional compensation. Then a seeming rupture took place between His Excellency and Bard, which rupture was healed by the bogus sale of tlio New Era, and the cordial recommendation of Bard for Governor of Idaho, by Bullock, Blod gett, Hulbert, Erskine, Dunning, McCay & Co. Bard, having been nominated for Gov ernor of Idaho through the influence of Bullock and his friends,;was confirmed only through their intercession. After being thus honored in these rare days of carpet bag and scalawag titles, Bard now pro poses, with the chaplet of fame encircling his pure and patriotic brow, to enlighten the heathens of Georgia upon the princi ples of loyalty, consistency,'virtue and self-abnegation. Can it be possible that the people ot Georgia have become so stu pefied by negro and Yankee domination that they cannot peer through the treach erous banner under which the facile Bard proposes to do battle? If they cannot sec the pit which is being opened hourly (un der one disguise or another) for their burial, let them bow their necks at once to the galling yoke, and abandon tbeir offspring forever as slaves and serfs to the most des picable of God’s creation Who can trust a man as guardian of tbeir interests and liberties who cohabits with plunderers, slanderers and poltroons—who was recommended, nominated and con firmed to office by Bullock and his thiev ing crew ?
