Guffis, »i.. June 3, 1867.
yjr, Editor: —I am far from being
t i.‘lined to write anything for the pub"
lie, bill feel constrained to ask a small
space in your paper, as l believe it to
he tin* ilmy of evert one who Ins any
regard for the principles of republican
hbcrtv, to do In- duty in the present
rrisis. for I am eoinp -lled to confi--
Tin I am more apprehensive of the Ins
ol our republican iusiiiuiions now, than
at any lime during the rebellion. Then
my trust w is in the justice of the Union
cause and the patriotism o* the Union
army. t’ney did their duty and did it
wail; bullion the Government seems
to lie in the hands of those who have
no regard f»r the constitution, hut seem
to legislate alone for the perpetuation
of their p irty. regardless of the express
ed constitution il rights of the State. It
is well, if not widely known, that I uof'
only opposed secession in its inripien
cy, but that J staked all ol life, liberty
and property for the Union and the
(hutstitution. and l claim and 1 believe
4t will be conceded by those who know
,u: best, that l am entitled to as much
credit as any m m North or South for
iuy devotion to the Union, who did not
l ake up arms in the defence of the
<1 tveruinent. \nd for what did I slake
all? N>t for any party. No, but for
ill; Union and the Cnnetilution. 'J'he
rebels have been wliipped —not over
jjo vered —and no one was more rejoiced
at it than myself. Why? Simply
h.'c iusc l considered it a Constitutional
Union triumph. I thought that it set
tled a great national question. It freed
iny si tves, and I thought lint I was
well paid for them by having my own
freedom secured, and being freed from
daily dread of mobs and vigilance
committees. But I am sorry to be
«o u pel led to confess, but candor corn
pells it. th it to-day we are as far from
the Union harbor of safety as we ever
wer •. It seems that during this re
bellion. as it lias been in all others,
mo-i of the honmi. liberty-loving men
of the loyal Stales went into the army,
and that the halls of our national capi
ia I to-day is filled with a class of men
win are as far from he:ng consiilutional
n*n mi m*u as were the rebels. For
a islait.re, the Sherman Bill, one of their
■ ct-, in my humble opinion, is as pal
p ild * a vi dution of the constitution as
• a i he conceived of, and yet we are
i lire atoned with the “raw head ami
Idv) id.y bones” ol confiscation if we do
not violate our amnesty oaths by ndopt
iig it. Sell-respect, in my opinion, re
quire i all men, ami especially constitu
tional union men. to spurn it, and lake
tlu: cons quenecs. I am counseling
vvith Union men, for l know that l have
Julie influence with secessionists, for I
have no p diticul sympathy for rebels
nor radicals. I know that there are a
lew of those with whom l have acted
Ihr years past, and whom l used to meet
ii secret ami * ,Mr ol the
v.niou cause, who entertain, or profess
i • entertain, dinorent views Irotn mine;
mid while I have duo inspect for them
as alien, l most confess that 1 look upon
them as policy men, and pandering to
ihe radicals for place and power, who,
i permitted, will lead us to inevitable
i tiiu. I think there is hope in the land
yet am! I boli ve that if \\c will main
tain our self-respect by rejecting the
Sli >nn:i:i Disunion Bill, v\ liieh is left to
our choice, and stave oir the poison
cap, that justice will yet be done us by
ihe rising ol the great conservative
neart ol the people North. But il we
invite aggression by its acceptance,
then all hope of republican libirty is
gone forever from this once proud and
I appv land. lam for the written
constitution, and for myself, my course
•is plainly marked out, and 1 think that
is the only one that any man, and
«specially constitutional union nr n.
can pursue, and maintain his consist
ency ami self-respect, and that is to
register and vote all who can, and vote
for no mail who will not pledge himself
to oppose reconstruction under the

j i Ifoni a rontiident I
e where a letter from
II. Johnson, Griffin, (hi.,
which we find in the that city.
Mr. J we have knoAvn for years,
1 and can vouch for his unswerving de
: votion to the TUniori, not*” only gyring
I the war. but long before was
precipitated. lie withstood
the jeers, taut ami ridicule of seces

ed upon him oil account of his politi
i cal views, but was never known to dis
own m deii^' Jiis allegiance btrand Ibve
lor Slates Government.—
i Though often overpowered bv force of
j numbers in argument, and frowned
down by popular opinion, lie fearlessly
and boldly enunciated his attachment
lor the Union, lie is certainly one
true, consistent Southern Union Man
upon whom there is no discount.
Our notion is and lias been that the
i South fiad better adopt the shortest
• and quickest route that will lead us
■ hack into the Union, and restore to us
j all our privileges and ammunities even
| though it does lead through tho valley
|of humiliation. But when we read a
: letter from the pen of so staunch a U
j nion man as Mr. Johnson is and has
| been, planting himself upon the Con
stitution of the U. S. and laws under the
same, and viewing the political condi
tion of the country in the light that he
does, we are almost upset in our no
tions and views, ami scarcely know
w but to think, speak or do. If he was
a strict partisan, we would know how
to take him, but he is a firm admirer
of the Union, and has proven it Urne
and again by staking life, liberty and
property on its perpetuation. While
! lie is uncompromising *iu his devotion
I UI ilie Union, at the same he is mag"

Georgia Factories.
The following article on factories
we take from the Memphis Appeal, and
submit it to the readeis of the Express
with the hope that it may afTori 1 some
additional light on the subject ofcotlon
and wool factories, a subject which has
elicited some interest on the part of the
j citizens of this place and section. All
| are alive to its importance, but the po
verty of the people and country is so
abject at ibis time that we don't fee!
able really to biiid a respectable pig
pen. But, then, we hope it will not
always be so, and we want to fan and
keepalive the little spirit of enterprise
that has been kindled in the bosom of
some of our people, until providence
enables vis to consummate the great
work already partially projected. iNo
section in the South affords more am
ple facilities for the erection, propell
ing and feeding of these great enterpri
ses than this timber and stone abun
dant, water-power unlimited, and min
eral and agricultural resources ample,
no finer country for sheep-raising, and
the Western & Atlantic Railroad run
ning along the d’viding ridge between
the mineral and agricultural districts.
But all these advantages are known and
appreciated by us, and it may be truth
fully said of us that the spirit is will
ing but the purse is weak.
As early as 1838, nearly thirty years
ago, a cotton factory was built on the
Chattahoochee at Columbus, Ga. Its
beginning was small, but it steadily in
creased in business and prosperity
down to the day of its destruction by
the federals in the spring of 1805. On
the return of peace it was rebuilt, and
down to the present time it has been
engaged in the protitabie spinning of
yarns. Some 2500 spindles are run
ning now, and the number will be
doubled the present year. The <;om'i>§j
winter, a ! so, it will again enter upon
the manufacture of cloths. It is said
to have water po\ycr enough to run
100,000 spindles,/and to increase its
manufacture of- yarns and cloths in
«The capital stock is 8250,
root!; with privilege of increasing to
$1,000,000.
The tirst enterprise proving very
profitable, another company was or-
gan'Zed mi that viciui'y in 1850. and
went into operation two years after
with a capital stock-of paid
ill. The first four years it paid an
annual dividend or twenty-five' per
cent. Soon alter the capital stock was
increased to -8270,000, ami three hun
dred hands were constantly employed.
In 1800 it consumed 2392 bales of
cotton and sU2,bales of wools averaging
5 pouods to the bale, and produced
69 ) hales ol osnuburgs, thirl \ -four hales
coltouades, 240 bales colored woolen
goods. 331 bales shirting, 387 bales of
yarn weighing each three hundred
pounds, 9G7 bales cotton stripes, 533
hales kerseys, 650 pieces cassimeres,
390 bales of sheeting, 992 coils of rope,
21,281 yards of sewing thread, and
2625 pounds ol shop twine. 'The fac
tory was, also, burned by Wilson
during his raid through Alabama and
Georgia, but immediately after the
return of peace rebuilt. 'J'he capital
stock now is §450.000, of which §137,-
500 is paid in. 'The new buildings are
nearly ready io receive the machinery,
and when in full operation will employ
500 hands and run 300 looms, with
wool and cotton spindles in proportion.
And what hasJjeen done on the Chat
trhoachcp, rh,e New Orleans Pic*
uyur 7T, can he done ali through the
south. There is no country in the
world more bounteously supplied with
suitable water power, and none whose
climate is any way more favorable. —
Instead of a dozen cotton and woolen
factories in the Slate of Georgia, there
might easily he found site.* for five
hundred, enough to work up all the
cotton and wool raised in that state,
at least into yarns, and to supply all
the people with suitable clothing. The
same may he said of the Carolinas, of
Alabama, Mississippi and 'Tennessee
'Through all those states run living
streams of purest water admirably
adapted to all the purposes ufinanufae~
turing. There is no climate more
healthy. The raw staple is ready at
hand. There is a vast market at home,
and what is not wanted for consumption
here can he exported at immense profit
to the north and to foreign countries.
'There is no reason in the world why we
could not have as good machinery as
they have in Euglan !, and labor as
skilled, for thousands of starving oper
atives there wot,ld eagerly jump at the
chance to emigrate hither, and compa
nies, like those of the Chattahooche,
thus supplied would, he capable of
turning out the finest fabrics known in
Lancashire, and supply a large portion
of the markets of the world.

[Mr. Greeley here introduces extracts
from the Tribune which prove that,

“having, through th& rebellion, com

South unite to bury the carcass, and

Mr. Greeley got** on to recite how he
was subjected to renew partisan assaults

gagement out of town,' and shall keep

of judging, or even fuliy-coniprehending
me. You evidently regard me as a
weak sentimentalist, misled by a maud
lin philosophy. I arraign you as
narrow-minded blockheads, who would
like to be useful to a great and good
cause, but don’t know how. Your at
tempt to base a great, enduring party
on the bate and wrath Necessarily en
gendered by a blood}* civil war is as
though you should plant a colony on
an iceberg which had somehow drifted,
into a tropical ocean. I .tell you here
that, out of a life earnestly devoted to
the good of human kind, your children
will select my going to Richmond and
signing that bail-bond as the wisest act,
and will feel it did mote for freedom
arid humanity than all 'of you were
competent to do, though you had lived
to the age of Methuselah.
1 ask nothing of you, then, hut that
you proceed to your end by a direct,
frank, manly way. Don’t sidle off into
a mild resolution of censure, hut move
the expulsion which I deserve if 1 de

erring country man.' So long as any is ■

best to deprive him of power; but

Confiscation.
THE SECRET OF RADICAL STRENGTH IN
THE SOUTH.
i'iie Helena, Arkansas, correspond*
enl of tlie Memphis .Ivuhtnche alludes
to the prevailing idea in the Arkansas
freedmen’s minds:
The most singular illusion prevades
the entire element ol our negio popu
lation, touching the threatened roniis
cation of Southern homesteads, by the
Radical Congress, tv lien it meets in
July next. Scarcely a grown-up man
or weman of African extraction, in town
or country, but believes that he or she
will very shortly be placed, by virtue
of a Congressional edict in possession
of the comfortable homes and broad
acres of liis or her whilom master or
mistress.’ This subject and its proxi
mate realization is thoroughly can
vassed under the seal of clan and
‘ colored” confidence, by every group
of ebon idlers who meet together on the
highway, in fence corners, or at the
doors of their cabins, and finds now
and then expression from the lips ol
indiscreet, dissatisfied and “unfaithful
stewards,” twitted by their employers
for their idleness, and urged to better
conduct—“De culled people will soon
hah all dese plantations,” is urged by
the foolish and the vicious among the
blacks every day in extenuation and
excuse of idleness and gross negligence
of duty, or both.
Such, says the Cherokee Georgian,
are the rascally and pernicious teach
ings of the white leaders of the “Loyal
Leagues” in Georgia, to attend the
dangt rous and clandestine meetings ol
which thousands of the poor Africans
are induced, by such vain hopes, to lose
a day’s work every week, and to spend,
in contributions for expenses, a portion
of their hard earnings, which go to
sustain a class of men who care no
more for the true interests and happi
ness of the blacks than il th-'y were so
many sheep. —[// ile/iigen ccr.
The New York Herald, for what
reason we are at a loss to know, con
j tinr.es to denounce Chase, Underwood,
Greeley, Gerritt Smith, anj all who
were proximately or remotely instru
mental in the release of Mr. Jefferson
Davis, on what it persists in terming
“stiaw bail.” Nor is il satisfied with
mere abuse and vituperation, but it is
lining all it can to Stir up the worst pas
sions ofThe mobile, valgus, by editorial
leaders, such as the one contained in ttie
Herald of Monday last, headed : “No
Treason—the National Debt a National
Swindle.” We have already referred
to tiiis singular course of the Herald,
and must confess that, accustomed as
we arc, and long have been, to the
vagaries and sudden summersaults of
that versatile and manysided sheet, we
carnal hut be surprised at its present
hitter and agrarian altitude. Os course
it is galling that Mr. Greeley should
have got 850,000 worth of advertising
from a Copperhead municipal corpora
tion, and extremely unpalatable to a
sensation writer like the Herald to have
i been outdone by the Tribune in the Jeff .
D vis bail business; but these cannot
be plead as adequate reasons for pro
posing repudiation of the national debt.
We can al® understand that the Herald
may haveV™ one of the object&in view
in this to damage CltfleL Jus

Judge Chase has granted a writ of
error in the cast: of the United States
vs. Joseph Bruin, whose properly was

grounded—First: The District Court
condemned and sold the absolute estate

which judgment was beyond the power
of the Court to pronounce. Second:
The condemnation of property was for
treason, of which the party could not
