I make these remarks not intending to apply to any particular enterprise, bat as a citizen who has paid some attention to financial questions, and who has an earnest desire to see the city* prosper. To say less would not be to deal faith fully. I have built some houses in At lanta, *but I do not expect tc build oth ers till the policy of the city is settled against contracting a ruinous debt that wc cannot pay and realize any' profit from investments in city lots and im provements. And I beg to assure you that I am not singular in this position. Other gentlemen w ho have made your largest and most valuable improvements tell me th<^ have determined to act on the same line of policy. This policy will be adopted because investments so heavily taxed will not pay. Depreciation in Values. The theory of depreciation in values, both monetary and moral, as proposed by Senator Bayard of Delaware—a gen tleman as high-toned as thepre.ux Chev alier, whose name he worthily wears— is thus curiously illustrated in a West ern exchange: Senator Bayard attributes much of the present low-toned political morality to a depreciated currency. There is a great deal of truth in what he says. The very quantity of this trash which it takes to buy a Christian statesman renders him liable to exposure. If the bulk were only diminished and the in trinsic value increased, the Christian statesman could simply “pocket” the amount, and thus avoid the risk he nec essarily runs in carting it home in a wheelbarrow. Lying in State- Apropos of Napoleon's body lying in state an Knglish antiquary writes: “In tlie year 1 183 the body of Ed ward IV. was exposed bare from the wai?t up, to show that he had not died by fotd means, in the palace at West minister. and was visited by the Mayor of Loud*m and many other persons. The body of Henry VII. lay in state at Richmond, as did that of Queen Eliza beth ; but wax effigies in armor repre sented James I. and Oliver Cromwell. ......... - ... - hody English sovereign- lias been— since the death of Charles 11.” What Henry Ward Beecher Knows About “Cheek Slang and psalmody alternate in Brother Beecher’s outporings—by cour tesy called sermons—to his Brooklyn congregation. But he often says good things, and frequently true ones. No man understand' better than he the American Man of the Period—or man ages him better—combining as he does with rare felicity the Worship of God and Mammon Here is one of the la test of his sayings: That a poor man with plenty of “cheek,” will get along better than a modest man with $50,000. man ought to know better than Brother Beecher, who is equally re markable for the abundance of his “cheek” as for the boundlessness of his “jaw.” It would be as difficult to meas ure the bounds of bis impudence as of his loquacity. ills modesty is an un- known quantity. the South. They have never done one thing to us in a spirit of hate orrevenge —oh, no, not they. Their motive was only to save the life of tfie nation—pre serve the fruits of the war, etc. W*hen they freed the negroes and afterwards installed them in Jewer by virtue of the thrice infamotis reconstruction laws, with full swing to oppress, and steal and bedevil us almost to the verge of forci ble resistance, it was all without a parti cle of malice or revenge. They loved us, and therefore chastened us. Since the world began there never been such an exhibition of s&Rge exultation and venom, disguised or sought to be disguised, in such a loathsome mass of sickening cant and hypocrisy as these people have manifested in their dealings with us since the war. Some fat witted folks have been deceived by it, but it is a sweet comfort to know that the num ber was small, and that even they have dwindled down to almost nothing. The Southern people, as a mass, have steadi ly refused to feed on this flapdoodle in the face of the countless and premedi tated insults aid outrages which, almost daily for years, they have been compell ed to endure. For holding and uttering, with re gard to the North, just such sentiments as Iloyt and Garrison proclaim towards us, we have been blistered with the re proaches and abuse of Massachusetts es pecially, but we have yet to hear one word even of remonstrance from Mas sachusetts or Northern Radical papers, against the same thing in their own people. What a consolation it is, how ever, to reflect that two can play at this game to the end of time, and that our boys are as quick to learn and as slow to forget as those of Massachusetts, or any other rebel hating State. Thank Heaven thought is still free, and no leg islation even Radical hate can devise, can prevent our cherishing such memo ries of our oppressions and their perpe trators as we like. Hoyt, Garrison and their sympathizers are doubtless good haters and will stand by their determi nation, but we can match them dpwn here. Let ’em rip then.— Tel. <t- .. ’ tl»c Son fuse to take the money will be carried out. It would be an emphatic protest in favor of honesty, wljich is much needed. Let those who lured to vote for legalizing the robbery be the only ones to take the plunder." An Aged Gentleman Crushed to Death by a Passing Train, on the A & G Railroad. On Sunday evenmg, abptot half past nine o’clock, a horrible accident occur red on the Atlantic and Gulf railroad some distance from this eily, and near Rcppard’s Mills, by whicn ail old man, aged about sixty years, and known in that vicinity as “Old Nab// had an arm broken and his head crusfgi in by the wheels of the passenger ttri^u rhich left this city at four o’clock after noon.

Among them was M Hoyt, the originator of the resolution of censure, who declared his intention never to forgive the South, and to teach his boy lb# same lesson of perpetual hatred. William Loyd Garrison follow ed in a long arraignment of Mr. >um- ner for his leniency towards the rebels, and seemed especially disturbed because the Senator had called them “fel’ citizens,” when he should have said “rebels or traitors.” He regretted to hear so few references to “rebellion’ and “treason,'' and lamented the ten dency to forget and forgive the past things which never ought to be done. Perpetual hatred for the Svuth was Mr. Garrison's sL.ndsrd of loyalty and pa triotism. and upon this h. rang tbe changes with fanatical real.-.Baltimore Sim lot*.

In an .editorial on the subject, ;uing against restricting the price of uioney^ as prejudicial to the best inter ests of the people, the Norfolk Virginian cites the policy adopted by our own Legislature in reference to the question of usury as an example worthy of imita tion. The editor says : “Just now we may turn with advantage to Georgia. That great commonwealth, which boasts itself the Empire State of the Soflth, has just repealed its usury laws, and un der circumstances which should give us pause here in Virginia before we move the opposite direction. Georgia as pires, and not without reason,'to become rent manufacturing State; to advance this object she proclaims free trade in money. Georgia is attempting to secure ater line connecting Savannah with the North-west, and has called the cot- Statcs to meet her iu convention secure this end; to advance this object she proclaims free trade in money and bandons the preposterous theories of a bygone age. Georgia is endeavoring to establish direct trade with Europe, and with euergy and emphasis in this direction. To aid in securing this she has wisely abolished her usury laws.” fge Wal- Court, Kid. ftr thir- The boy Z sentenced gnm- tke Judge i, the moth- him at the sly.

It is a genuine 32 row**! sweet tern grow ing fmm 10 to 13 feet in height. Lapt year planted the first of May;_ it was sold in the market July, 23d, (84 days.) A latcrplant- ing was ready in 76 days. ITS CLAIMS 1st, It will produce more Corn to the Acre with the same cultivation and in any ruff -variety of soil. 2nd, It has a greater depth of kernel than any horse-tooth variety. 3rd, It has a smaller cob than any 32 rowed variety. 4th, It weighs 6o lbs. to the bushel, sealed measure. 5th, It fills better at both encis than any other corn.. 6th, It is a solid white transparent corn with white cob. 7th, It grows more vigorous and ripens its whole crop earlier than any of the other large field varieties in America. 8th, It makes better meal, being sweeter and richer. 9th, It beqrs more foliage which makes more feed. 10th, It can be planted on land from which wheat has been harvested, or from which po tatoes have been dug ; fully before frost. 11th, The spikes shoot out within four feet of the ground, consequently the crop is not liable to be prostrated by high winds. It is likewise easier to gather. 12th, It bears more full grown ears of corn on each stalk than any other field va riety. I3th, The tap roots penetrating the sub soil to a very great depth it will stand ~— drouth better tim other variety of 14th, It can be successfully grown in any State. We give the most satisfactory references that the corn is, in every respect, what wc represent it to be; and further, we are the only persons throughout the country who have introduced this variety of corn. Hav ing a quantity, wc are now able to fill all or- grlO;sfor those desirous of testing it. Last J.

Although France may be likened to a ‘ gentleman in difficulties," bearing the burthen of the heaviest national debt in the world, and still having to pay up the considerable balance due to Germany as indemnity, her commerce appears to be steadily on the increase. f The official return from the customs department shows that tbe total value of merchandise imported during the Tear 1872 was 3,447 million francs, inmiust 3,393 millions in 1871, and that the total value of exports in 1872 amount ed to 3,679 millions of francs against 2,865 millions in 1871- The total rev enue derived from indirect taxes during 1872 was 740 million francs, against 594 millions in 1871. These, all things considered, are very remarkable results. Plain Talk.
