A deserved compliment to a faith ■ fnl officer—a just rebuke to tho malcon tents, who for selfish purposes .would peril all that Georgia has gained and, at least, risk tho danger of having lior again bound in tho withes of Radical usurpation and bled by Radical financiers. Greeley and Brown were endorsed and an efficient electoral ticket put in tho field. * The action upon the ratification was har monious. . The Ru-klux Law .Uiicoiustitutioiu^. . A’ correspondent of tlio Wilmington Jour nal, Avrjting from NoV ton, N. C., reports that Governor Yanco said that “ho had l>Ccn informed by Mr. Reverdy Johnson nn.d Montgomery I>l air that the Supremo - Goilrt of tJic United States had decided tho Ku-kluX law unconstitutional in ono of tho South Carolina cases, and that tho opinion of the court was purposely withheld Until after tho election.” And yet • theso bloody night-riders not content to have filled Albany, N. Y. poni tentinry with South. Carolinians and Ala . bifimans, convicted under tins unconstitu tional law,* by suborned testimony, now be stow- their loving kindnesses upon -Geor gia. Mai. Whitelcy will please rise and ox • plain. . The court say it is unconstitutional, yet withhold the judgment till after tho elec tion, lest Grant should bo deprived of his patent machine formating Radical w-n* UmmUlir ThTpeogl o listcn ' For Congress. W. 0. Fleming of Baiubridge is, in eur opint ion, the coming man for the next in this Dfetrsc for Congressional honors. ITeis a man favorably known and highly esteemed throughout South west Georgia, for his fine legal attainments, and intrinsic worth. If nominated and will run, his many friends will give him a zealous support, and when elected will represent his constituents ably and faithfully, with honor to himself and credit to his section.—Cuthbert Appeal. l)eca f ur and tho extreme Southwest of the District, welcome this cordial response to tho nomination of the man of their choice, Col. Fleming is all that is claimed for him above and more. We hope that ho will find that his pri vate interests will permit him to respond .to the cull for his services, made from all of the District. ' We are moro so licitous of this, because there is a greater probability of election as the District is now organized. If once designated to lead a forlorn hope, now, being reinforced, let him carry forward tho flag to victory. .If he shrank not from the Cypress—now let him win and wear the Laurel. Cilice writing the above, we have ascertained and now announce, with a satisfaction which we know will be shared by his numerous friends, that 001. Fleming is a candidate, subject to the action of the nominating Convention. He justly con. siders it a duty, to yield to the pressure, which we know .is brought to bear upon lilm from all sec. tions of the District. We will allude to this in detail next week. To Colored Radicals. We call attention of our colored Radi cals to the telegraphic article headed “From North Carolina.” It will be seen that the law against ‘intimidation of voters is being enforced. Sliadrack -Jones, colored, for al tem tiling to intimidate Simon Craven, a colored Greeley Republican was found guilty and bound over to auswer. Another, also colored, who had assaulted Sam Crow, colored, a marshal of a Greeley and Brown procession, was also tried and convicted—other cases under this law are pending. It will thus bo seen that if you arc will ing to bind yourself by oaths, that you can’t drive others into your way of voting, against their convictions. Away'then with the fool Mi idea, that you will force every Mack man into your way of voting and thinking. If are freo let them show it, by voting as they please. To constrain and compel their convictions is a worse slavery than the slave code ever tolerated or sanctioned. , A PARALLEL. History, it has been said, repeats itself. hen the feud of Caesar an<l Pompey had convulsed Rome, Cicsar having crossed the Rubicon, pressed with his iron-clad legions upon the Eternal City—ambition his motive—the seeptre of the world his goal. Nations stood aghast with bated breath. The trembling Senate, for the first time in internecine war, had voted that sub lime decree “the Republic is in danger.” But this decree, which so oft had roused Roman courage from its lion-like repose, till it shook the invader from its limbs, fell still-born and dead, when Roman Caesar met the no less Roman Pompey. ’Twas the hour of Romes chief peril and her shame. In this emergency, the Senate having summoned, solicited the counsel and advice of the “ noblest Roman of them all.” His virtue and wisdom were equal to the emer gency. ‘‘Trust, said he, the defence of the State to Pompey. Those who have done most to bring about the troubles, know best how to remedy them.” “ Trust the defence of the Slate to Pom pey”—advice worthy the unselfish patriot ism of Cato 4k® ->r ii ioimio. •• Those who have done most to bring about the troubles, know best how to rem edy them”—words, which illustrate and embalm in history that profound statesman ship which had made Romg the mistress of the world. With Roman institutions, it seems, wo also have Caesarean ambition, which clutches after royal purple, and the sceptre of a ’ continent. Our Caesar arrogates kingly State and prerogative. The peaceful home of Wasliington'has the air and. state of. a military sovereign—Brig. Gens, for ushers and aid-de-camps for Secretaries. In the shameful language of Senator Frelinghuy sen he “holds a reluctant Congress in their seats,” until they enact laws so usurpatory, a§ even to shock their bluntod moral sense and cause them to hesitate to do his bid ding. He enforces one law with the sword or pierces another with the bayonet. He has broken down every barrier, erected by the genius of ’7O, to guard the municipal against the encroachments of Federal power and lust. He diverts public monies to private or party purposes, and to reward corrupt retainers and courtiers. By “ holding a reluctant Congress in their seats,” he has compelled them, to tear away the last refuge and bulwark of the citizen, by enabling him to appoint a venal pliant Judiciary, pledged before appoint ment to carry out liis nefarious schemes. The blood bought writ of habeas corpus ha3 been dopendent upon his royal will. His appointments to office, are based, not on fitness or in recognition of past service to tho Stato, but on Jiinship to this new lusVior Houses, lands or shares, or flatter his royal taste, whether for colts or bull-pups. • Right royally does this modern Ccesar rule. But the parallel still holds. This Ccesar lias his Pompey. Tho truth of history de mands tin? concession, that Greoloy, the champion of abolition, the hater of Democ racy, is responsible, in great measure, for the troubles, which culminated, in tho cor ruption which could produce a party whose typo and oxponent is Grant. Greeley is re sponsible. Let it bo so. The troubles exist. They must bo remedied. The Senate and people of Romo must trust the dofonce of popular liberty to or to Pompey. Tho Democracy, true to its history ; true to its traditionary .love of constitutional checks and, popular freedom ; true to the memories of tho past and the bright hopes of the future, and true to that government, which, under the Constitution, she had raised to a commanding rank among nations only heard Cincinnati proclaim and Baltimore echo, tho decree of tho Great American Peoplo, “tho Ropublic is in danger”—when with intuitive patriotism she brings to the rescue of that imperilled Constitution, not one but 3,000,000 Catos. Rome had but ono Cato and his virtue became historic. Yet that miserable burlesque, the so called Republican of to day, unable to rise to,the dignity of tho occasion and assuming to measure Democratic meal in his filthy half-bushel, calls it office-seeking. May Heaven help him. Dan Voorliees. A gentlemen in this city sent word to Toorhces that ‘"all his old friends were getting into the Gree ley boat ; that he was too good a fellow to leave behind, and he had better come along too, before they shoved off.” Yoorhees received the message and sent this back. He was pretty much in the condition,he wrote, of the boy at camp meeting, where nearly all of the people had gone forward on the anxious* benches, and he was left blooming alone. At last the minister saw him and oarnie P -*-My young brother;’ said the preacher “why do you sit h ere alone? Why not come to glory? ’ ’ “All them gals goin’ to glory asked the boy. “Straight as a shingle,’ said the preacher. “No switchiu’ off nor nuthin ? “Through by daylight,” answered the minister. “Well, parson.” said the boy, “if all them gals is a-going’ to glory, I don't see as its much use o’ me a whittlin' here by myself ; guess I might jest as well go 'long too.”—St. Louis Dispatch. Good for Yoorhee3. Can't recalcitrant Democrats deduce a moral —or make an application? What say tlic Savannah News and Atlanta Sun ? No uso to be whittlin' there by yourselves. Come ’long, gentlemen. LEGISLATIVE DOINGS BONDS. Col. Simmons, Chairman Senate Bond Committee reported. Recommends to de clare null and void the indorsement, bv the State, of tho- following railroad bonds, and to prohibit tho Governor, Treasurer or any officer of the State from paving th© inter est or principal, or in any way recognizing the validity of said endorsement. Brunswick & Albany R. R.. (currency,) $3,300,000. Brunswick & Albany R. R, (gold,'' sl,- 880,000. Cartersville & Van Wert Railroad and Cherokee, two setts, endorsed bonds cov ering tho same section of road, one batch, $275,000, the other $300,000, making $575,- 000. Bainbridgo, Cuthbert, & Columbus Rail road, $600,000. Os which $240,000, endorsed by Bqjlock } but not by Secretary of State, who was to have endorsed them when twenty miles were completed. Certain quarterly gold bonds, (held by Clews & Cos., . Hon. TANARUS, J. Simmons also offered the fol lowing resolutions: issued under act of to be good and valid. That the bonds hypothecated, bo redeem ed by tho payment of the money borrowed, with lawful interest. That tho endorsement of the bonds of the South Georgia and Florida railroad was made incompliance with law and thaie fore valid. That tho endorsement of the bonds of the Alabama and Chattanooga railroads is valid and binding. That the currency bonds issued in Ai gust, 1870, having been cancelled by tio gold bonds are not binding, and probat ing tho Governor, Treasurer or any otbr officer of tho State from paying interest >r principal, or in any way recognizing thdr validity. Mr. MeMullin, Chairman House Joiit Committee, also offered tho same report n the House. The joint committee recognize as goed and binding the States endorsement to Alabama and Chattanooga railroad to tie amount of $194,000. SIOO,OOO of which had been negotiated. Also the Stoutli Goorgia and Florida rail road, $464,008 bonds, proporly endorsed. The State road mortgago bonds, to the sum of $614,000, issued by Jenkins and used by Bullock, aro valid. We condense from tho ablo and well un formed Atlanta Constitution t Two million currency bonds were issued to raise money on temporarily. Tlireo mil lion gold bonds were afterwards issued to pay tlicr money. Bullock sent Kimball to tako up the currency bonds to cancel, (dews held SBOO,OOO and Russell Sage $530,000 currency bonds. • The former, .to cover $47,000 debt; the latter s27slaY -S1 Jm * s^*J **'T* S *T mil I ill! In Clows also refused. Kimball took tho currency he go t up and borrowed money on them from J. Boor man and A. G. Johns, getting from J. Boor man $84,000 on $120,000 of bonds, and from Johns $35,000 on $50,000 bonds. The cream of this transaction was that Kimball bamboozled these sharp iNew York brokers by getting their money on Bullock’s order to cancel and return said currency bonds to the Georgia treasury, they taking Kim ball's word, and declining even to read the order. The State got nono of the money. The gentleman were in* fault for being de ceived. Tho committee report these bonds as of no force. The Macon and Brunswick road has had $2,550,000 bonds endorsed, of which $2,- 100,000 wer§ under the prosent Constitu tion, for which there is an equivalent of privatd investment, but not for tho $450,- 000. Tho committee makes no recommen dation. These bonds brought from sixty cents to par. The gold bonds were three millions. — Kimball got $250,000 for the Opera House; James sloo,ooojfor the Executive mansion ; Henry Clews has $102,000 unsold ; $300,- 000 have been returned to the Treasury, and $2,595,000 were sold.' and hypotheca ted. Os this last sum clews sold $1,650,- 000, and Kimball manipulated the rest. — Clews got $1,432,250 for his bonds, and paid $370,000 on old bonds, SIOO,OOO on Stato road bonds, $609,192.78 on drafts and notes of Bullock and Blodgett, on ac count of State road, $198,700 to the Na tional Bank, and $254,000 for expenses and fees. The money paid on Bullock’s and Blodgett’s drafts was misappropriated, and Clews did not got the gold bonds as collat eral security but for sale. Tho money raised by Kimball on these bonds can’t be estimated. The committee recommends all these gold bonds to be paid, as Bullock was not restricted by law as to their issue. The gold bonds hold by Clews are illegally in his hands, in opinion of the committee. For Greeley—Plain. Joe Brown, Col. T. P. Saffold, both tho McWhorters, Judge James Johnson of Co lumbus, and all the principal Georgia Re publicans are leaving tho sinking ship.— Grant is too heavy a load. Whiteley will soon be left alono. Won’t some one, now that the pool is troubled by the healing Angel of Peace, help him, in that he may wash himself of his Radical lepro-> sy? He was once a Democrat Laboring with Forney. Grant stopped over the 16th, in Plnladel pliia, to labor with Brother Fomey and reconcile him to the support of the ring candidate, Hartranft. A Washington dis patch reports that he offered Forney the choice of a Cabinet position or Foreign Mission if he Would come to terms, but whether the trade was made or not, is not stated. One Col. Picket* and the alleged Con federate Archives. Avoiding any discussion of tho genuine ness of the documents claimed to be con federate, but said to have been forged by the übiquitous Snd convenient Conover, the question is still pertinent—by what an thority and under what law Boutwell can justify, paying $75,000 for them without an appropriation by Congress? Onco before, has this official paid Jay Cooke, Henry Clews and their confederates, $1,900,000 for negotiating the last loan, in violation of the terms ot the law. Had Andrew Johnson been so defiant of law, his impeachment would not have terminated as a ridiculous farce. If Boutwell can pay Conover or Pickett $75,000 of tho people’s money,’to secure electioneering campaign documents for Grant, we will like to see his reckoning with the next Congrees. Wo invite the atten tion of our immediate Representative, Maj. Whitelcy to this matter. • As for Tickett, if there be such a man and his letter bo - genuine, he has sunk to Milton’s “ lower depth ” —from which even the hand of mercy w ould not rais him. Grant and Greeley.? The Macon Telegraph quotes from Forney's Press, of the 17th inst., a paragrapli attributing to the News a statement that “ Grant will beat Gree ley twenty thousand ” in this State.. The state ment aforesaid was incorporated in an article writ ten some weeks before the nomination of Greeley at Baltimore, and was justified by public sentiment at that time. Since then there has been a Tre mendous revolution aiuqrg Democrats, and if tin? negroes enter the campaign with tli,(!u;.o^nue New, 22d iiist. Pimp Forney, quoting Savannah Nejvs for Grant sentiment in Georgia!! Os a truth, Democracy is stabbed in the house of jts friends. But the News admits then that “since, there has been a tremendous revolution among Democrats?” Why then, does the News persist in kicking against the action of Bal timore, and of the “ tremendous revolution among Democrats?” Becalcilraiion may be dignified, but Democrats don t think so. Individual consistency must yield some times to party w r ill, else party ceases to be a potential agent in effecting the purposes of its organization —the fusing of miner dif ferences and individual preferences, to at tain greater permanent good to the many. Again, with all respect, wc beg tnc News to pause and r eflect. RADICAL FINANCIERING. By tho annexed, extracted from the Con stitution, the reader may form a faint idea of what Radical rulo in Georgia was, what became of tho people’s money, and why they still groan under heavy taxation. If they like the picture and wpqld .perpetuate If they wish to continue the work of clean ing out this Augean stable, so auspicinlly inaugurated, they will vote for Smith and Democracy. The Brunswick and Albany Railroad 300,000 indorsed bonds, and $1,880,000 gold State bonds, lload cost $20,000 per mile.* Tho road was in operation 65 mil ’s in ISC3. The rood was taken up by the Confederate authorities and paid for. The State government had nothing, tp 'do with the matter. The following facts are obtained The act giving a*l .wa3 based on the falsehood that tiro State owed the road for the iron taken by the Confederate States government. It. A. Crawford says Win. L.'Avery told him that Bullock got SIOO,OOO for indorsing the bonds. B. Y«SagC,of the Air-Line Hoad swears that Bullock told him, before he signed the bill giving aid to the Air- Line, that “if there were anything to be made out of it that he (witness) might count upon him (Bullock) as being in, as he was on the make,” and when Bullock endorsed the first Air-Line bonds, he said “even if the company did comply with the law and Constitution in every particular, he never would sign another bond, unless they would turn out that damned rascal Austell, because Austell was backing up Angier and bo would, not give aid to his enemies.” This shows the morality of the noble llufus in these matters. The indorse ments were given iu every case before tho lawful amount of road was completed. Clews, the ’Trea surer of the Company, and the negotiator of large numbers of the bonds, knew of thi3. Finney, the financial agent of the road, kept him constantly informed. Clews said he could take care of him self. Bonds were issued fifteen nr twenty miles in advance all the time, which Clews knew, rmucj says that Conaut told him they gave Roland B. Hall, legislator from Glynn,s7,0 0 0 in stock for his services in regard to the bill, and also gave him a lot in Brunswick worth SI,OOO. Houston swears that Hall was put out, beda'use the company did not do enough for him, for his valuable services, and he left the impression on witness’ mind that improper influences were used to pass the bill, and he threatened the company. W. K. DeGraffen ried notified Clews’ agent, Lewis, that the bonds were issued against law. The second indorsement bill was gotten up in Conant’s office, in New York W. L. Avery drew it. Frost, the President of the road, testifies that he refused to accept bonds in advance of tl\e work that Bulinck and Kimball wanted to deliver, but Kimball did procure and use them. Frost says repeated outrages were at tempted by the contractors, Conant and Avery. Wm. L. Avery says Clews knew all about the matters, and was to have a fourth interest, James 11. Dedlie'testifies that Clews got him into the affair, aud Clews knew of the illegalities. Tbe testimony against Clews shows his thorough knowledge of every fraud. If you wish to make any purchase don’t go away from home to do it. Encourage home industry give your trade to merchants and mechanics, especially those who ad vertise freely. This is tho way to build up a lively business in your own town, and benefit yourself as well as others. Every dollar spent in a town is of advantage to a place in general, and every article spent abroad, for articles which could be bought on as favorable terms at home, is like tak ing so much capital out of tho business in terest of the place. Fun and Honor..—“ Paddy,” says a joker, “why don’t you get your ears cropped— they are entirely too long for a maul” “And yours,” replied Pat, “ought to be lengthed —they are too short for an ass.” WORSE THAN A CRIME—A BLUN DER. We recognize the uses of party. In Ecpro. sentative Governments, perhaps they are necessary. They are the machinery, by w hich pop. lar senti ment becomes concentrated, and hence active and effective. Right or wrong, they are now a ne cessity of our governmental polity, if not of our very civilization. Yet we never expect to surrender our personal independence, and that highest attribute of true manhood, which leaves us free to approve the right and condemn the wrong. We wear no man, nor no party’s collar. Our independence is as nec essary to our self-respect as a journalist,-as it is as a man. "Hie Convention of 24th in 'Atlanta, has fallen beneath the occasion. Shame! shame 1 Shall it go before the world, that the Democracy of Geor gia, after making the sacrifices they do to de feat Grant, his corruptions and tyranny; after having been jeered by fools, for their sacrifices, after pluming themselves upon the patriotic motive underlying that action, which, as Heaven knows, is the tmly ground upon which it can be justified— is this Democracy, now, to disgrace itself, go back upon its own record, give the lie to its own con duct and arraign the purity of its own motives, by rejecting the proposed aid of the liberals? Yet this has been done. It is an unpleasant duty to inquire into motives. We will not assay it. But the enemies of Democ racy can and will say, that w r e pretend to support Greeley, with the declared purpose of “ clasping hands across the bloody chasm ” of national strife and fraternal blood ; yet we will not affiliate with men of our own State and people who ask admit tance to our recognition and confidence to carry out a common object. They will weigh well, whether our love of country is as unselfish as we claim ? Whether, wc love country or office most ? “ «SB4 to party bate, that even in this extreme peril of our country, we cannot, to gain, not 15,000 but 500 votes, allow the Liberals the mere pittance of a place on our electoral ticket? Whether, m fine. We a’re so completely in £thc leading strings of the kicking back Democrats, beaded by Stephens and Toombs, that we dare not*do right and act justly ? Oh shame, where is thy blush ! We hesitate not to say that the Liberals hrfve risen in our estimation, as of all sincere, honest men who have at heart the country’s good. All honor to them. Their reply shows that they realized the situation and were equal to it. In our opinion, the action of the Convention was a crime—to the mere politician, in the language of Tallyraud, ’twas “ worse than a crime—a blun der.” • . For Greeley—Colored. W. U. Saunders, colored, formerly of Florida, late Grant elector in Maryland, has come out for Greeley in an able letter and is now canvassing New York State. In Florida, lie bad character for ca pacity, and was a Pliarasfto of the strictest sect, a Radical dyed-in-the-wool. Who among his people will bo tho noxt to fol low his example—of independent thinking? • (Special Correspondence of the Sun.) LETTER FROM ATLANTA. Atlanta, G a., July 22nd., 1872. Editors Eainbrid'je Weekly Sum. Since tlio meeting of the Legislature and •■•**»**x^**4won. inMo utfVtlT m THU cU and a few have been passed. 7u ti, ■ si-igo pf the session it is, of course, impusible to say how much work, and of what kind, will be performed, but us Soon as tho rush of bills to tho clerks desk ceases, I tnink both houses will sefctlo down earnestly to busi ness. . • Thus far tho most important thing brought before the Legislature lias beeii tho report of the Committee on bonds. Be fore this letter reaches you tho daily papers will have made you familiar 'witli the char acter of the report, You will preceive that tho Committee recommended the passage of a bill declaring null and void tho State’s indorsement of tho bonds of Baiubridge Cuthbert and Columbus Railroad. Should tho bill pass it will not materially affect tho road, for tho reason that the bonds which have beon issued have merely received tho signature of Bullock, but have never receiv ed the final indorsemen of tho Stato, with out which, the indoroement is incomplete. It thereforo follows, that when the Bain bridge, Cuthbert and Columbus Railroad Company have complied with tho provis ions of tho law granting Stato aid, Govor compelled, as a matter of duty, to indors tho specified number of bonds. Your read ers may, therefore, feel aasy on the subject of tho road. Let all iuterestod in tho work go forward, subscribe to the stock and push it to completion and they will find indorsed bonds ready for them as fast as each section of twenty miles is constructed. The recommendation of tho Committee on the Bruswick and Albany road is precisely what might .have been expected. It is worthy Us remark that when tho bill grant ing aid to this road was before tho Senate, the only serious effort to defeat it was made by Hon. B. F. Bruton of your district. Ho made two distinct efforts, one in the shape of a resolution to submit tho whole matter to tho Legislature of tho next session. Had this resolution passed it would liavo been imposible for Bullock & Cos. to liavo manipulated the bonds of the rsad. It was, however, voted down, i Mr. Bruton then moved to lay the bill on tho table whi<jh was lost and the bill was soon after passed, Mr. Bruton voting against its passage. Whatever discredit may be attached to the State in this matter it can’t reflect npen him. Indeed, I must do your servant jus tice by saying that the Journals of the Senate show him uniformly and consistent ly voting against every one of tho measures which have been justly loaded with obloquy. In all parts oi the Stato will bo heard a cty of indignation on the facts elicited by tho Committee appointed to investigate tho Lunatic Assylnm.
