But, with tlie fact staring the American pebple full in the face, that the safety, the hap pincss, the prosperity, yea, aud tbe perpe tuity: of our Republic 'bj dependent iqx>n the overthrow of that party and those political combinations whose utter disre gard of the fundamental, constitutional principles of our form of government has and still fill the nation with alarm as to its future welfare, how un.ortnnate that there should be permitted in this, by fer lh« most important campaign within the history of onr country, an issne bo calculated to damage that result which is paramount to all other necessities—reform in the gen oral government. Reform in our currency is useless, yes, we might say, next to im possible, until wo return to an iionest, con sthutional administration of the affairs of nati n. Sound currency and a stable system of finances are the guarantees only of sound and stable government. Inflation, contrac tion, rag money, hard money, and the re sumption of sjieciu payments are only the An Inulting Preposition. \ On Tuesday the 23rd. inst., we recieved' Bates & Locke, advertising lew York, a most insulting propo- mblish in our paper, as “ quoted matter,” certain extracts from different papers, advocating the Domination of Gov.

The next day, upon reeeivingthe August ■ phromdtand Sentinel, we found that the Georgian was not the only paper that this agency had at tempted to subsidizes in the ^interest of T'l* den.

John Jones, the venerable ExsTreasu- rer of the State of Georgia, was yesterday arrested in Atlanta upon a charge of with holding moneys from the state, and required to give bond in the smu of ten thousand dollars. At last accounts he had not been able to fill his bond. The contrast here suggested is striking. Blodgett, long a fugitive on account of his knavery, was ar rested, carried to Atlanta, and his homl fixed at fifteen thousand dollars. There seemed to be a prospect that he would have the degeneracy of the republic winds up with indiscreet Democratic leaders, has been the the following sling upon Belknap and Bui- first to accept that issue upon which the ■ -t: •• For the first time in history ’ Radicals h sec thc D ,.,uocratic pany Senate is engaged in trying an officer of 1 * Cabinet for criminal ofieuces and a State fl’ 11 U P» "® uppreliend tho Democracy, at lock the court has an ex-Governor under arrest for , l east of the South, felt very little sympathy fraud. - | for.01^ Bill Allen iwjiis defeat of last fall, O tempora, O mores! ! and have no congratulations for his viotory Conkling, Blaine and Morton will lead the j in thel.-tte State ConvehUon.

Bul lock is arrested, brought back >to'Atlanta, and bis bond fixed at ten thousand dollare. Immediately, os the chronicles state, “ pro minent and wealthy citizens of botli parties” come to bia rescue, and lie.is now wearing “a nosegay and grayish pants,” boasting to chattering and open-mouthed Bohemians that had there been any necessity therefor, his bond would have been sigued by a list of tlie names of citizens filling two pages. The contrast, we say,, is striking—nay it is sickening. Here two self confessed knaves and plunderers are accommodated with obsequious courts and bondsmen, while a vene. able Georgian—a patriot and an hones, man, as we believe—goes about huuting for names to go upon his bond. Some civet, good apothecary ! We extract the above from the 8avannah Hews, which must lie painful truthes to the great mass of the people of this Common wealth, facts well calculated to bring a feel ing of shame and mortification throughout the whole State. Can it be possible, that even the people of Atlanta have so far for gotten the faithful and patriotic services of this honest old Ex. Treasurer, who has so nobly devoted well nigh his whole life to the services of the State he loves so dearly, as to show fayoritisnr to the thieves and plunderers of out- State, who as fugiti. re from justioe are only ih their midst Morton hates both and vice versa; ergo none of them will be nominated; ergo the “Great Unknown,” the sombre nag with erect tail and flowing mane will pass under the string with the blue ribbon. Now, here is something indeed with the true Centennial ring! Among the arrivals yesterday in this city wc see. the name of the Marquis De Rochamhcau, of the French commission to Philadelphia.

Cabinet Changes.—The President sent the following nominations to the Senate on the 22nd. inst: Edward Pierrepont, of New York, Envoy Extraordinary and Minister Plenipotentiary to Great Brittain; Alphonso Taft, of Ohio, Attorney General of the Uni ted States: J.
