1 ■Sr THE ATLANTA WEEKLY SUN J THE DAILY k Friday Morning August 25. The “Chronicle and Sentinel” of Augusta, Ga. We give our readers to-day an article from this paper of the 23d inst., entitled: “TFe mutt support the Candidates of the Nat ion c Democratic Contention TV inte •wish the points of our comments to be clearly understood by all who may read them. ly gives his approval and sanction to the most infamous of these frauds and usu.rpa iions ? If our cotemporary thinks so, he has more faith in double-dealing than we have. A. H. S. The Tide of Popular Sentiment. No one, at all acquainted with the views and feelings of the masses of the King, John Collier, A. TV. Mitchell and John H. James, are eminently proper men for their positions; but we trust no one will be offended when we say respectfully that the other members are not the men to push forward this great work, nor even to assist it, in the position in which they are placed. They can do the Road re give the article entire, because we, people, can be mistaken in the conclu-j far more efficient service in the ranks nd tfi comment upon parts of it, and s i on , that a very large majority of the i than i u command, and we do sincere- voters of the United States, are deeply impressed with the fact, that our institutions in this country are iu imnri- 1st. Onr cotemporary is very decided nent danger from the reckless usurpa- in its amendu seems t to the certain organ*, but Rays: “Wc hold, and have held, that while we cannot accept their platform, it is folly to fight them, should their opinions opposition to the “fraudulent of the Constitution, and be equally opposed in gminciple “New Departure” movement of soroalied Democratic leaders and tions of power, by the party at present controlling the Federal Government. The great and absorbing question therefore, for Statesmen, and Patriots everywhere, in this juncture, should be how to bring this majority in concert of action, in the decisive contest of 1872. “Unity” and “harmony” among the be in consonance with those entertained I ^ ends constitutional liberty in all the by the mass of the Northern Democrats.” States, are essential for success. Eow This may be so, “should their opinions” I can these be obtained? We have been prevail in the next general Convention of of the opinion all .along, and are the party. It is always folly to “lock the still of the same, that it can door after the horse is^tolen.” But pray, be accomplished only by adhering is it folly for us or anybody who feels an with steadfastness to Truth, Right and interest in the subject, to discuss this 1 Justice; by clinging to the principles question which is to come up in the Con- of the Constitution, and to the principles vention before the meeting of that body, of the Democratic Party, as taught by and to show to its members, whether Jefferson, by which alone Constitutional from the North or South, that the ap proval and sanction of the “New De parture” movement, which is so objec tionable to our cotemporary, is not only wrong iu principle, but may be utterly fatal in policy? Is it folly to endeavor to prevent v/hat our cotemporary regards as so great an evil? 2d. It is our cotemporary who is “pre maturely forcing,” or presenting a ques tion for agitation. The question note be fore the public, is not whether we shall support the candidates of the Demo cratic Convention; but it is, who shall be those candidates, and upon what platform shall they be supported-whetlier upon the “New Departure” platform, or upon some other and better one ? This is the question now before the people; and we maintain that it is not only a legitimate and proper one, but one of most mo mentous importance for the due consid eration of every Democrat in the United States, North as well as South; and one that should be duly and profoundly con sidered before the meeting of the Con vention or the choosing of delegates to it. We maintain that Georgia should send up delegates to it, whose object should be neither to lead nor follow, but patri otically to consult, advise and agree, upon the best candidates, and the rigid princi ples to cuter the contest with. Wo would have our delegation com posed of men who will understand the business upon which they may be sent, and who will be as little disposed to .“crack whips” over others, as to allow whips to be “cracked over” them. We want fraternal counsel and not “cracking of whips” on either side. 3d. Our cotemporary argues as if the people of the Southern States must sur render their rights and interests in this matter entirely into the hands of others. How is this, and upon what principle is the position assumed ? Are not the people of the Southern States free men ? Are tiiey not as capable of exercising sonnd judgment as to their rights and interests, as anybody else is for them ? Are they in a state of pupilage, that they must trust tlieir interests exclusively to the judgment of others ? But have we of the South any rights or interests in these questions* which are not common to the people of all the States ? The “Northern Democrats,” the Chronicle and Sentinel says, “are our friends.” On thi3 point we have hereto fore stated the true position. There is nothing sectional iu these questions, and we recognize no political friends in them, North or South, who are not friends of the Constitution. Wc- do believe that every real Demo crat, North and South, is true to the Con stitution. Fidelity to the Constitution and its maintenance is the touchstone of genuine Democracy everywhere. We do further believe that no man is true to the Constitution or to the free institutions of this country, whether bo hail from the South or the North, who will deliberately and sincerely declare that these foul usur pations—these “fraudulent amendments” —are dejure parts of the Constitution, or that they have been incorporated in the organic law “in the maimer and by the authority Constitutionally appointed,.” Any one who will make the declaration .deliberately, but without sincerity, is not true to himself and his own honor, and is therefore not to be relied on, as true to the Constitution or anything else. Yet ouv coteinporary knows that a set of men ca'dng themselves 'Democrats are endeavoring to get the Party to commit itself in its next General Convention, to this great untruth, as well as this most mischievous doctrine, which, if carried out, will inevitably prove fatal to the lib erties of this coimtry. •ith. We cordially agree with our co temporary, that there should he “forbear ance, tolerance of opinion” and “charity” among nil who “are honestly labor lug for the over fa row <y It ilicul ism aiid its infamous frauds and corruptions.” But can any man be trusted as an honest laborer for such a result, who openly and deliberate- Government can be preserved. All “de partures” from these principles, in any essential particular, we have thought and still think, must and will, of necessity, produce schisms and divisions which will endanger' success, if not secure defeat.— This is too plain a proposition to argue. Then we make an earnest appeal to all those who have advocated what they call the “New Departure” from the time- honored principles of the Democratic Party; why persist in their course? Is it their purpose to Bide or Bum? Is it their object to Badicalize the country, either by coaxing, duping, and bribing, if need be, leading men and organs of the Democracy, into an adoption and sanction of Badical principles and policy, or, failing in that, then to abandon the Party and go over to the Imperialist?? We propound this question in all se riousness and earnestness; for this is the view we have taken of the real ob ject of some, at least, of the movei's in this “Departure” business from the begin ning. They are not and never were Jef fersonian Democrats. We have again and again given our readers the expres sion of the popular disapproval of this movement, in almost every State of the Union. On the same line we call their attention, to-day, to an article taken from the Terre Haute Journal, which presents the prevailing sentiment of the Democra cy in Indiana. It is entitled the “New Departure,” and should be read and pon dered by every Democrat-in the land. A. H. S, “The DomesticJLife of Thomas Jefferson.” This is the title of a late work just is sued by the Harper Brothers, publish ers, of New York. It is a neat volume of 432 pages, hand somely gotten up by the grand daughter of the great statesman, Sarah N. Ran dolph. It does not purport to do more than present the private life of Mr. Jefferson, and to give the public a view of the “in ner man,” never before furnished. We have perused the book with pleasure, and commend it to all who desire a valuable acquisition to their libraries. The political life of Mr. Jefferson, by Randall, in three large volumes, publish ed by J. O. Derby, or Derby & Jackson, in 1858, should be in every library in the country. A. H. S. The Georgia Western Railroad. With all due respect, we beg to he excused while we call the attention of the City Council to what we con sider a matter of the gravest impor tance. We want the Georgia Western Railroad built at all hazards. It must he done! and in saying this, we feel that we but re-echo the senti ment of every man, woman and child in Atlanta. But a heavy portion of this great work must be done by this city. If we are in earnest, earnest work must he performed—such as has not yet entered into the minds of many of onr people. The first thing necessary is a thor oughly zealous, able, and efficient or ganization—the President and Direc tors—to he composed of men of prop erty, ability, influence, and the very best business qualifications. The President, Campbell Wallace, is the right man in the right place This all freely admit. To him there can be no objection. The Directory chosen at the stock holders’ meeting on the oth July, last, consists of the following gentlemen : John P. King, John Collier, E. Y. Clarke, A. W. Mitchell, C. W. Wells, A. M. Speights, Thos. Alexander, John II. James, F. P. Rice, and C. P. Cassia. Mr. Alexander has resigned. Of remaining members John P. ly hope they will see and appreciate this great truth, and resign. We know r they earnestly desire the Road to be built, and we feel very sure that nothing is lacking, but for them to be satisfied that others can serve bet ter in their positions, to secure their prompt resignation and hearty co operation in putting the right men in their right places and sustaining them in those positions in every way in their power. We make this remark from our personal knowledge of all the men. We know 7 they have the good of the Road far more at heart than the gratification of them selves in auy way. The City Council, in our opinion, acted without that careful considera tion of what was best, when it chose three of its own members as Direc tors; and when, as a compliment to the press, it secured the election of Messrs. Clarke and Speights. Each of these five men are far better qual ified to follow their several vocations, than to be Directors of a Railroad Company, where a million of dollars are to he raised! That idea of com plimenting the Press, by choosing two persons connected with it, sim ply because they were connected with the Press, and not because of any qualifications for the office, was, to say the least, a very thoughtless one, wholly unworthy the occasion. The support of the Press of Atlanta did not need to he secured in this way- We venture to speak for all, when we say that this sop, need not to have been thrown, and for The Sun, we decline to receive it. Mr. Speights is one of onr Proprietors, and under stands the business of publishing a newspaper very well, but has not much experience in building rail roads. He did not desire or seek the position thrust upon him, and does not desire to retain it. He has no time to attend to its duties, and de sires some one who can attend to the business efficiently, to he put in his place. We say this of Mr. Speights because he is one of the Proprietors of The Sun, and by his authority.' We forbear applying our remarks in dividually to the eases of the other gentlemen. What we might say is at once apparent to all. Now, in order to build this Road, money must be raised, and it will re quire the united and earnest efforts of ten of the very best men in this city—men of first-class business and financial standing, whose very names will he a tower of strength—to raise this money. The Board as at present composed, cannot raise it; and un less it is reorganized, and men better suited to the great work put in the places of those named, the enterprise to ill fail and the Road will not he huilt! We say what we know—or at least have the very best of reasons for saying. How much stock have 0. P. Cassin, 0. W. Wells, F. P. Rice, E. Y. Clarke and A. M. Speights taken ? How much can they take ? How much can they secure to he taken by their personal example, efforts, and influence ? Why were they ever chosen ? Do not misunderstand ns; we are makihg no imputations against their good faith, or their circum stances, or standing before the com munity.. We are only showing that they are not the men for the posi tion. Let them resign, and let such men as Wm. M. Lowry, B. F. Crane, A. Leyden, A. C. and B. F. Wyly, E. E. Rawson, Geo. W. Adair, Z. A. Rice, T. W. Connelly, Sam’l B. Hoyt, L. E. Bleekly, and a number of others we might name, he put in their places. their arrest, have cither of them made the plea (when thus called on) that they had money belonging to the State, and were ready to pay it over, as soon as any one could be found authorized to receive it and give them a legal receipt which would discharge them and their sureties from all lia bility. We have been informed that the Governor designatedMaj.McCalla and a clerk to take full charge of the books of the Road under the superin- tendency of Foster Blodgett, and close up all balances and unsettled business; and that all efforts to get Mr. Harris and Mr. Wrenn to settle or to acknowledge indebtedness, have been futile. Now the question arises, would they ever have come forward volun tarily and paid that money over to the State or any one else ? If they really desired to pay over the money, some way of doing so le gally could have been found—at least this is our opinion. If they desired not to pay it over, hut to retain it, their conduct is easily understood. We Must Support the Candidates of the National {Democratic Convention; Mr. Wrenn and the State Fair Money. During the State Fair in October last, the State Road run a special - train from the city to the Fair Ground, charging a very exorbiant price for tickets. Everybody sup posed a very large amount of money was taken in from the sale of tickets, and it is a matter of surprise to some that Mr. B. W. Wrenn, the General Ticket Agent of the Road reported only some $9,000 as the gross re ceipts from this source, while the net amount, after all payments, ex penses and deductions were made, was only some $3,500. This account may he all right; we do not know, and do not say it is not right; but many persons would like to see a detailed statement of the ticket money received on account of the State Fair—one that will he full and complete.. THE FIRST KV-KLVX. Where the Order Originated- Yankcc- iioiu the Father ot the Great Bugbear. The following document is genuine, and is clipped from an old file of Virginia papers, which has been on hand for twelve years. It will be noticed from the place and date that, like all other sen sational humbugs, it originated in the land of steady habits, and is not a South ern invention. And we are willing for the honor to rest where it properly be longs. This invention beats wooden nutmegs aud patent hen’s nests all hol low, and-the cream of the joke is, that it is genuine. This much we are pre pared to substantiate. If in the natural order of tilings, “chickens come home to roost,” then the great Yankee nation have only themselves to thank for inaug urating a society which appears to give them so much concern at this late day: Randolph, Vt., Nov. 21, 1859. Gov. H. A. Wise—Sir:—I improve the present opportunity to warn you of your danger, and the consequences attending the execution of John Brown, now under sentence of death within the limits of your State. Marie it well! Just so sure as John Broicn sicinys from the scaffold, or is in any way injured or dees, while in your prisons, or under any circumstances suffi cient to warrant the belief that he has met h foul plat at Your, hands, or at the hands of the slave minions of the South, then just so sure—so help me God—in a moment, when you think not, you will be launched into the eternal world. This is no idle threat, for I solemnly swecn % , by Almighty God, that I will net rest, day or night, until I have taken your life with the lives of four of your associates. At the same time I will assist (even to the lighting of the matches and placing them We believe, and the Southern press and people, with few intelligent or honest exceptions believe, that the so-called 14th and 15th amendments are unconstitution al, because, in the first place, they are violative both of the letter and spirit of the Constitution, and in the second, be cause they were conceived in a spirit ac tuated by partizan aggrandizement and sectional hate against the South and Southern people, and carried into effect by and through force, fraud and corrup tion. We cannot accept, and we do not intend to accept these amendments as fi nalities; but whether accepted or not, for the time being at least, they are de facto laws, and are so treated by the Courts, and recognized by even our own citizens. This is the light in which we hold these fraudulent enactments. Wc hope this brief explanation will be satisfactory to all who have been solicitous about the Chronicle iC Sentinel, notwithstanding its well-known and frequently expressed opinions on the subject of these amend ments. Now, as to the “New Departure Demo cracy,” we hold and have held that while we cannot accept their platform, it is folly to fight them should their opinions be in consonance with those entertained by the mass of the Northern Democrats. We cannot form a third party, for that would be worse than madness. We cannot ex pect to take the lead, .crack onr whips and make the Northern Democrats fall in the rear, for that would be both presump- tious and unreasonable. We must be content for the present to be followers and not leaders. The people of the South must go into the contest determined to vote for the candidates of the Democratic party, even if that party in National Con vention assembled should see ft to ignore the lith and loth amendments as living, vital issues. It is all folly for a few pa pers in Georgia to be seeking to create strife and dissension in the party at this time by prematurely forcing the cam paign. What we want now is quiet and harmony in the party. The Northern Democrats are our friends. We can on ly hope for redemption through them, and into their hands the planning of the campaign for the defeat of Radicalism must be committed. Should the Pen dletons, Seymours, Blairs, Brookses, Yoorkees, Hendricks, Hoffmans, Thur mans, Casserlys, Blacks, and thousands of other good men and true at the North, who are in favor of free government and constitutional liberty, adopt a platform of principles, we would be willing to ac cept it—feeling assured that they would not commit the Southern people to any policy or principles hostile to their inter ests or self-respect. We hold that sound policy and good judgment would dictate that the discus sion of national politics by the Southern press is premature, and calculated to do more harm than good. Georgia papers have been pre-eminently conspicuous in this respect among their Southern co temporaries. Of course we do not ques tion the right of any of our young and ardent cotemporaries to push themselves into a heated controversy. But we doubt its necessity. There is time enough ahead, and work enough, too, to try the mettle of all before the race is over. We counsel forbearance, tolerance of opinion, and charity among all who hon estly labor for the overthrow of Radical ism and its infamous frauds and corrup tions. Though we of the South may not approve of all the means by which the end is to be accomplished, wo will thank God when the news is proclaimed that constitutional governments are again re stored to the South and the North.— From the Chronicle and Sentinel, Auo. 23rd. to revea the ground, and also to set fire to every village, town and city South of Mason and Dixon’s Line as soon as Messrs. Harris & Wrenn. tlie We understand that the books of the State Road, iu charge of Maj. McCalla, the general bookkeeper, show that on the 27th day of Decem ber last, there were some $19,000 in cash in the hands of Isaac P. Harris, the Treasurer, and some six or seven thousand dollars in the hands of Mr. Wrenn, the general passenger and ticket agent We farther understand that Maj. McCalla has frequently called upon these gentlemen (as well as others owing balances) to settle up, but that they (Harris and Wrenn) have refus ed to pay, and that never, until since at the fuse,) in carrying out a favorite and well matured plan here at the North, which is this: That of burning Harper’s Ferry, Charlestown, and a few other places, (which I am bound by oath not al,) to practicable after the execution.

I withhold my name, particularly, because I desire my liberty, that in case John Brown is injured in the least at your hands, or at the hands of your Government officials, my dagger, or bullet, or poison, may be forthcoming, to send you for trial before the bar where the murdered Thompson has already been.

SAVANNAH. The News of the 23d has the following: On Saturday a lady residing in the southeastern portion of the city attempt ed to commit suicide by tailing an over dose of laudanum. It appears from the best information that the lady, who was a widow with a family of children, had some time previous married her present husband, a widower, also having several children by a former marriage. Tlie old stoiy of unhappiness between the two on account of the two families of children was again repeated, and on Saturday the wife attempted to put an end to her exis- tency by taking poison. Tlie New Departure. The New Departure is a bad blow for the Democracy—a good thing for the Republicans. Every endorsement Re publicans have by the Democrats, di rectly or indirectly, strengthens our op position and weakens the efforts of those who for years have contended, and who are now striving for the restoration of those principles of Democracy without which there can be no real government of, by and for the peopie. If Democracy is wrong let us forsake it entirely aud go in with Republicans for theft, plunder, misrule, centralized despotism, one-man power, ignoring of the Constitution, rights of States and protection, of the people, and have done with all this regard for the work of for mer-time patriots. Let ns all go in for plunder, disregard of laws, power of the bayonet over the ballot—for electing to and keeping in office thieves, carpet-bag gers and unprincipled adventurers, that thrift may follow official corruption rath er than honest industry. If Democracy is right let us stand by it like men. We can accept situations without endorsing till comes the time when, by ballots deposited by thinking men, wrongs can be righted. We can submit to unjust laws, denouncing them the while as unjust and unconstitutional till the people will demand their repeal, without admitting that Democrats have been wrong and Republicans right all these terrible years, but just passed away. Three months since the Democrats in every State were moving forward in line to contest and to victory. Cities, coun ties and States were following Democrat ic ballots out of darkness into light—out from the scabbard to the ballot-box—out from the din of drum-head courts to the sanctity of law—out from long exhibited Republican corruption, to Democratic honesty and reduction of exorbitant and unnecessary taxes, taken from the industrious to support the idle, corrupt and vicious. When the grand column was advanc ing in splendid trim for the contest of 1872, seme one anxious to outdo those who were running to the camp of the enemy, cried a halt, proposed another road—a nearer route to official plunder. Then the column halted till it could be decided which was the best road— straight ahead and straight on or turn ing here a little or there a little the col umn on the march, but never nearing the landmark erected years ago for the guidance of law makers, the protection cf States and the salvation of the peo ple. So it is that now the hosts of Democ racy are at a stand-still till the leaders can decide which is the right road. Some, anxious to attract attention, are The following items are from tlie Re publican of the same date: We learn from an official source that the break on the Central Railroad lias been repaired, and the trains are now run ning through on regular schedule time. Two boats loaded with negroes from the Carolina side of the river arrived here yesterday. They proceeded in a body to the Exchange for the purpose of regis tering, in order to vote at the coming municipal election. Fortunately notice of their coming reached the officers, who were waiting for their arrival, and pre vented them from committing perjury. We were visited yesterday by another storm of wind and rain, which for a while tloreated to rival that of Friday last, in fierceness. The wind blew a perfect gale from the north and west, accompanied by a light, misty rain during the morning.—. | About 4 o’clock in the afternoon the winu shifted around to the east, and the storm abated, passing off in a heavy shower. This is doubtless the storm predicted ffi the weather report by telegraph last night as prevailing along the south At lantic coast. A large meeting of the Republicans of this city was held in the fourth district on Monday night last, at which consider able enthusiasm prevailed, and a great deal of patriotsm was unbottied for those thirsting for its reviving power. J. B- Devereaux was chairman, and speeches were made by E. E. Howard and others. Resolutions endorsing tlie present admin istration, and pledging those present to use their utmost influence in favor of the renomination of Grant, were adopted The meeting also endorsed and sustained the actions of Collector Robb, and then adjourned, .
