Philo.—We are in receipt of an interest ing communication from “Philo” of Dali- lonegaGa, on the “University Bill.” We regret not being* ab'.e to present it to our readers this week. It will appear in onr next issue. The Senate Priveleges and Elections Com mittee still have the Spencer case under in vestigation. The chances of his escape with out " the smell of fire upon his garments, are exeedingly doubtfuL Caleb Marsh the fugitive witness against Belknap has returned to Washington and has been before the House Judiciary Com mittee. His statements go to corroborate his previous testimony. This assures the impeachment of tho Ex-Secretary and his indictmcut by the local courts. The Washington news seems to indicate that in the course of a week or two some startling developments are anticipated in connection with the While House. The testimony of Orville Grant has done the President no good, and it is not uulikely that the “ Head of the Nation” will be brought before the Bar of the Senate. So mote it be. A Washington correspondent, to the A1 bauy Aetni says: “Mr. Pendleton, who has been made the recipient of an immense amount of Radical mud, came before Mr Clyraer’s committee and made a most per fect vindication of himself, covering his de fame!* with merited confusion. The Radi cals have resorted to every strategy to break the damning effect of the Belknap exposure, abusing Mr. Clyiner and Mr. Pendleton without stint, and endeavoring to couple their names with some disreputable transact- actions, but the efforts failed and both gentle men stand perfectly vindicated. “But here comes a correspondent to the Atlanta Constitution and says : “So far as Mr. Pendleton is concerned, enough has been proven already to put him out of the field as a possible candidate for the presidency. He has dug his political grave with his own hands. There are very many here who are sorry for him, bnt they recognize this fact.” . FROM B.iD TO WORSE. The investigations at Washington are still progressing with almost the daily de velopment of tome new and startling cor ruption t amongst J government officials. These investigations have discovered much to stain our national honor, and with a national pride suffering from the deep sting of governmental depravity, it was natural to suppose that there would have been on the part of an indignant, outraged and insnlted people, sncli an arousement as would have secured a speedy return to the better days of our republic. But alas! how disappointed have been the hopes of a suf fering nation, and “ how sharper than a serpent’s tooth” that party allegiance, which has more deeply stigmatized our nation by sacrificing its honor and reputatiou for party gagrandizement. The recent election" in New Hamp shire and the means used for Repub lican success, serve to admonish us, that the clouds of political corruption still lower o’er our country. They foreshadow the storm of Radical abominations, which, glowing from bad to worse, and seemingly gathering strength from exposure, is again about to burst upon us as a mighty cyclone government degeneracy, and which shall make this Centennial of our Republi can existence as the grand finale of that good, honest and Constitutional Govern ment, once the boast of American freemen. Tlic present administration of the govern ment, demoralized by the weight of its own corruption and trembling with apprehen sion at the convening of a Democratic House ol Representatives, began, early after tlie meeting of the present session of Congress, to exhibit superficial evidence of official crime. This fact led to the investigations now being pursued. And now, as the curtain has been raised, exhibiting to the world a degree of fraud, corruption and depravity in high places, jierhajis never equalled, ceitainly never excelled in the history of any government, what has been tlie effect upon tju* party thus bring ing our country into disrepute with all the civilized nations of the earth ? Does the present political outlook indicate that Radicalism is likely to find a Centennial burial in the midst of its own rottenness and beneath its own rnin ? Not so. But emboldened by its familiarity with crime, it rises ns it rots and rots as it rises,” and ; thus rising in the midst of its infamy and rottenness, sounds the rallying cry of Radi- ca ism. With its “ slander mills” now un der full headway, with its carpet-bag Gen erals and scalawag Colonels already active in marshaling the deluded “ wards of the nation,” with free and uninterrupted access to the government treasury, it presents a bold cud solid front, threatening that dis astrous political result in the approaching Presidential elec ion, which will make the year 1876 rather the celebration of impe rial or centralizing Radicalism than the Centennial anniversary of American Re publicanism. GETTING EIGHT AT LAST. It was cur good fortune, and pleasure to meet, during tbe past week, many of our agri cultural friends from different portions of this seetion, and xre were.not only inter ested and gratified, but greatly encouraged by the “ much of good cheer” which they, had to say. They report, in many neigh borhoods, a much more independent con dition among the formers than many had been led .to suppose. Realizing, as they seemed to have done, the great importance of reform in their system of agriculture, and fully appreciating the increasing strin gency in money matters, the past year was not without its good results to them. This, and the manifest tendency this year, in a goodly portion of upper Georgia to an im proved and more self-sustaining agricul ture, will doubtless work a much needed and lasting benefit to our whole section of country'. We learn from several prominent agri culturists that their neighborhoods are not only supplied with all the necessaries with which to make this year’s crop, but even have corn, fodder, oats, hay, etc., for sale. This certainly is a good showing, and would go to prove that many of our tann ers should be excepted from tlie broad-cast censure which the Press of late has been teeming upon the sturdy “ sons of tlie soil.” We have the promise of special commu nications from several of these self-sustain ing and independent neighborhoods, which, when received, we sliall take great pleas ure in presenting to our readers*. We trust all of our farmer friends, who may be able to add their testiiuouy to this most cheerlul aud highly encouraging evidence of an improved and improving condition in the foundation interest of our country-, will send in their contributions. Such presen tations will not only serve to turn the cen sure, which perhaps has been too freely and indiscriminately bestowed upon them as a class, into comincndaticn, but will do much towards the-restoration of confidence in every channel of industry by furnishing the gratifying intelligence that onr agriculture, at least in this section of Georgia, is get ting right at last.

S. K. Johnson, Sup’t., Go. R. R. Oconee, March 27th, 1876. Since the failure of tbe Southern life Insurance Company, we have noticed a very decided disposition on the part of the op ponents of Gen. Colquitt to use this mis fortune of the Company with which lie was connected, as a means of disparaging liis claims for Gubernatorial preferment. We do not suppose for a moment, that Gen. Colquitt needs defense against such unfair and unjustifiable attempts, with an intelligent and thinking people, whose op portunities have acquainted them with the facts as regards the fate of this Company and whose desire is to mete out jus ice unto all men. But as a goodly portion of our readers ■nay not have had an opportunity of learn ing the particulars in regard to this failure, and as doubtless they have at least heard it intimated that the failure would proba bly damage Gen. Colquitt in his Guberna torial candidacy, we propose to give Ihe following statement from Col. William Johnston, ot Charlotte, one of the Directors of the Company: “The causes of the failure are, in brief, the failure of the Carolina Life to pay np its reserve—888,000—and he deaths of the policy-holders from cholera and yellow fever.

Lumpkin, a mile from this place, his mother, Mrs. >Lumpkin, the wife of ex-Governor Lumpkin, put aside the cares Of this life and passed over the shining shore. With the character and life of this noble and distinguished lady, are blended memories sweet to many of oiir older citizens, who, in days gone by honored and loved her husband, who with so much ability filled the office of governor. Those were days of official integrity, aud had her husband while he held the helm ot state, been guilty of that prodigality so characterictic of some of our officials of late date, pageantry and show might have turrounded her death aud burial. So it was she passed quietly away, and those who honored her living, may, with equal pride, honor her memory.— C’crfar- toien Herald. EOS COE CON n LING THE CHOICE OF NE W YORK REPUBLIC AS8. Tlie New York Republican Convention, at Syracuse, an si.nously selected Roscoe Conkling as their fkvorite candidate for the Presidency. This action of the Republi cans is in direct opposition to the resolu tions recently adopted by the Union League of that State, but as Grant has ex- , pressed a derided preference for Conkling as the best and most suitable man for his successor, we need look for no split between the two winga df qfe party.- To what ex- - ’ tent the action oftho New York jtepabli- cans will control the choice of the National Republican Convention, cannot now ,be aafely or satisfactorily determined.* With Blaine, Bristow and Morton, nil prominent in the field and each with a strong follow ing from their respective sections, there is likely to be an unusual scramble and divis ion amongst the Radicals as to who shall become their Standard-bearer in the Presi dential Campaign of 1876. Let this, how ever, be as it may, there is no probability of a permanent split . Party discipline is too well established, party necessities too pressing, and party success too important for the slightest chance of a “straighout” movement. Let the friends and support ers of the respective candidates differ ever so widely, still the choice of the National Convention will heal all differences, close up all divisions, and tbe nominee of the Convention, as the Standard-bearer of Rad icalism, will receive the undivided support of tb* toe common aud united party. & Co., Broad St., Athens, Ga. 4) a day at home.

The Directors, at their meet ing, asse sed the stockholders forty per cent, and appointed two agents, the .ate Secretaries of the Company at Memphis and at Atlanta, to go to work and ascer tain if they could not effect some kind of compromise with the creditors.” Thus it is seen, that it would lie fully as unfair and as unjust to attribute the slight cst responsibility of this failure to Gen. Colquitt, as it would bo to ascribe the same to other gentlemen whose names are promi nently connected with Gubernatorial hon ors. In a conversation with one of the highest official* connected with this Insu rance Company, during our recent stay in Atlanta, he stated to us, that the investiga tions consequent upon this failure, had shown the Georgia branch of the Company at Atlanta very ably and snocessfhlly man aged, and certainly reflected great credit upon Gen. Colquitt as Vice-President and active manager of the business. It would .seem from tlie statement of Col. Johnston, as given above, that the Board Directors cei uittly had great con fidence in the business management of the Atlanta Company, as they have assigned to it, together with the Memphis Company, which, by-the-way, is the headquarters of this Southern oiganization,' the duty of finally adjusting matters with the creditors. Thus having discharged, what wc con sider but a simple act of justice to Gen. Colquitt, wo would unite our voice with that of others, iu saying, let there be naught but justice and fair play in the ad vocacy of tb- respective candidates for the Governorship. Then, with the masses free from the bias of prejudice, bused upon false repre sentations, and independent in tlie posses sion of truth and tacts, may we hope the selection of a Governor full worthy of the position and the choice, not of political tactions or partisans rings, but of tho whole people of Georgia. \ DVERTISING IN REUGIOUS AND AGRICUL TURAL WEEKLIES, half-price.
