Grant, poor fallow, finds the Presiden tial Chair anything elso but one or case, it reports be true. It is said that ho is growing pale and thin, and shrinks from business and visitors. When we remem ber the great love he hns manifested far the nigger in his Southern appointments, wo do not wonder at this. No man, es pecially n white man and the President of n great nation like this, can look any oth er way than thin and pule, ir conscience lashes him ns it ought, who will insult a brave peoplo by appointing in their midst illiterate, irresponsible, thieving niggers to otllces or gravo responsibility, just be cause he hns the power to do so: ns was done in Alabama, where threenlggermnil route agents lmvo been placed upon the railroads in that State by our "let us have pence" administration; and In Georgia, Louisiana, South Carolina and other ‘'reb el’' Staten, where quite a number or buck niggora are oftieiatlng ns postmnsters by consent or our white President. netted Ion*. In nil this wide world 1 there is much to grieve pud sudden the heart, ns there is •idso much to gladden and mnke happy.— But our own actions do moat promoto our joy or sorrow, and the joy or sorrow of The Society before which tills ranting ebulltlon was made, was organised about fifty years ago by a few crazy, puritanical hypocrites,' whoso principles and objects, then enunciated, wero scarcely noticed, and when noticed, only to bo rldtuuled and condemned by every sensible limn and true friend of the nation at that time.' But this handful of dlssentlonlats, of fermen ters of discord, of revolutionists, of haters of liberty and advocates of tyranny, con tinued to mCct and grow in numbers and strength until their Unconstitutional and destructive teachings finally culminated in a civil war of immense proportions; and to-day. tills same wicked, hell-born or ganization exists to ailllct and harrnss the country with its ruinous principles. Not satisfied with linvlng liberated the South ern negro from bondage (what they set out to accomplish, and all they Wen pro fessed to wish to do), these fanatics, these leaguers with the devil, have placed an other plank in their infamous “Anti- Slavery" platform, which is nothing more nor less tlupi negro equality in every siuglo particular—negro in our parlors, negro at our table's, negro in our beds, negro sitting beside our wives and daughters at church and oil railroad cars, negro intermarriage, negro legislators, negro judges, negro gov ernors, in n word, negro everywhere and in every thing. This is no fancy picture —'tiswliat’thesovilecreatureswantand in tend to accomplish if let alone; mid it is not saying too much to asiert that two thirds of tlio Radical party are in favor of this grand negro equality Idea, for is hot tho President-General inaugurating this very system by appointing buck niggers as as sessors, postmasters, route agents nnd Judges?—and what is this but one step to ward Phillips’ leading idea, that a nigger is ns good as a white man, and that no dif ference should be made between the two races either politically or socially? Moiiiiii'i'ii ttnitronil Meeting t» Cincin nati* In the Cincinnati Gazette of tho 10th, Wo find an Interesting report of the pro ceedings of a railroad meeting held In that city on the 6th Inst., to take into consider ation the contemplated connection of Cin cinnati by rail with Chattanooga or soino other point South. Delegates wore pres ent from various portions of Kentucky hnd TeniieBseo; nnd our own Stato was represented by Gov. Bullock and Col. K. Hulbert, both of whom addressed tha meeting In somo vory sonsiblo remarks, which wo glvo below. Tho State of Geor gia is deeply interested in this proposed sir-lino road to the great metropolis of tho West, as It will, should tho road termtn- nato either at Chattanooga or Knoxville, open up an nlr-llno routo (Voin that city to oui'Bcaports, Savannah and Brunswick, is well as add greatly to tho Interests of otir great "State Road." AVo agree with the Atlanta Intelligencer that Col. IIul- bert’s "exposition of tho ‘railway system of the south’ is ono of the must complete, compact and interesting, that wo have ev er seen presented to the public,” nnd' it will well repny every ono, into whoso hands this number of ouir paper may fall, to read It: aoVERXon bullock's hemaiiks. Gov. Bullock, of Georgia, was first call ed upon. He said ho was not hero so much to recommend any particular route, ns to show tho deep feeling his peoplo had lure- gnrd to n direct connection with Cincin nati, nnd tho desirableness of a closeu rail road connection with the North nnd IVcst. lie said the State of Georgia had built tho lino from Atlanta to Chattanooga, con necting themselves with the railroads in Tennessee, and thought it would be to the interests of Cincinnati nml tho Slate of Ohio to aid in tho improvement of the sys tem already in operation. "With regard to the route,” ho said, “ we would only suggest that the goutle- meu of tho committee would examine carefully, by aid of tho best mans, the railroads already In operation, or for the completion of which provision has been made. Wo are satisfied that tho careftil examination of tho chief railroads which have been built in connection with the roads from this city, East, North and West, will show that, bv the construction of a line of trunk road between Cincinna ti and Chnttanoogn, a direct connection may be made for your commerce, which is now forced to go by a roundabout route between these cities. We, therefore, from our own examination, bclievo that this is the best point, and we do not recommend it without asking Hint tho gentlemen will lursue the same course of examination jy which wo linve arrived at our conclu sions.

Tile Noiitti our Only Hope. All classes of our people lmvo a common interest in the prosperity of the South.— Another season’s good crops in that sec tion of the country will do more to place the nation Inn condition to resume specie payments than all the theories of politici ans, or the long-drawn-out wisdom of Congress. Through much distress and misery tho South, in spite of politicians and the blunders of legislators, is now en tering upon a new nnd substantial career of prosperity that may soon oclipso tho glories of the AVest and North,—York Commercial (Radical organ.) There is a great deal of truth uttered in the above paragraph; and yet tho Com mercial and all the other Radical organs North, together with the whole Radical party of that scctiou, are doing nil they possibly can to cripple the energies of tho South by vilifying, slandering and misrep resenting her people—by charging them with the killing of every negro, carpet bagger nnd scalawag, that happen to die by violence. They profess to look to tho South as the only hope of tho nntiou from bankruptcy—the “good crops” of this fer tile section they say will do more toward placing the country in a “condition to re sumo specie payments titan all the tliei ries of politicians’’—aud yet they continue their interminable and relentless warfare upon tho very people nnd section from which they expect so much. They send carpet-baggers down here to fill our otllces and sow seeds of discord among tho negro population, thus making them Useless as laborers, and rendering every plan of in dustry inaugurated by our people unnvali 1 iug. How despicably mean—how lost to every sense of honor—must that party be that will persistently persecute a defence less people, uud at the same timo look to tlia t people fertile restoration of that which they have, by their seoundrellsm, jeopar dized: the nation’s credit and prosperity. Tho South is unquestionably an im portant component part of tho Govern ment, and much, yea almost everything, of the nation’s prosperity depends upon her. The country’s chief hope reposes not only in the “good crops” of the South " but in her general prosperity—no where else can it find security from bankruptcy nnd ruin; and if'the Northern Radicals, in the languuue of the Louisville Courier- Journal, were guided by wisdom and pru dence, if they permitted their course tube regulated'even by an enlightened self- interest. they would, instead of seeking to eriish tho Southern States, scrupulously cherish them as the country’s best and surest reliance far deliverance Item the darkfnte that threatens her.

World, conveys the melancholy^intelli gence of "continued outrages by prowling bands of Ku-klux on Republicans, both black nnd white,” nnd adds: “To bo an avowed Republican In this country is a sure passport to death or violent outrage. ” Which reminds us, ns tho late Sir. Lin coln would say, of tho little story about a Londoner who went to Dr. Aberucthy with “Oh! doctor, whenever I raise my arm in this w’ay it nearly kills mo.” To which tho blunt doctor replied, "Well, wlmt a d— fool you must bo to do it, thou.” In like manner, where it is sure dealii to bd'an “avowed Republican," we should suppose that people pf ordinary common sen so would exorcise some discretion in the matter of avowal. Honor Conferred upon n Ueorirlnn, A correspondent of the Atlanta Intelli gencer, writing from tho University of Yirginia, states that on the 1st instant, after a long nnd hard fought contest for tho Debater’s Medal, In tho "Washington Society of tho University of Virginia, {Jils high nnd deserving reward of true merit was conferred upon Mr. P.

The Central Georgian says that at the recent session of tho "Wilkinson Superior Court, Judge Robinson defined what it re quired to be under the influence of liquor, so that parties might make no mistake. Said he: “It is not necessary tlint n man should be wallowing in a ditch, or bump ing his head against your post, that you may know him to be drunk, bnt whenever he begins to tell the same thing over twice, then he's drunk!” ever they were started by private enter R riso with a reasonable ground for belief mt they would bo profitable, cither to the stockholders or beneficial to the State at lnrgo. We lmvo already completed a line of road from Savannah to Dalton, in Georgia. Wo lmvo extended a line which runs through the South from Atlanta to Macon, thence to Thomasvillo, which would make an air line connection. This Is on the pro posed routo from Cincinnati, which would also lie a direct air lino route. Colonel Hulbert. the Superintendent of our Stato ltuilrond, is fully inforinod of the route n-oposed, and is advised as to tho connec- ion which it is conceived desirable to make. Col. Gaw, the Chief Engineer of tho Atln'ntlc & Western road, is also frilly informed of tho Service and advantage of the proposed line. "The disposition of tho people of our State is to aid, as far ns they can, in mak ing a railroad connection with tho people of tlie North and West, and to do every thing to nid the system of internal im provement by which they can procure an interchange of commodities, and promote umicablo relations existing between differ ent sections of the country.” 'RAILWAY BYSTEM OF TIIE SOUTH. Col. E. Hulbert, Superintendent of the Western & Atlantic Railroad from Chatta nooga to Atlanta, was announced ns th next speaker. lie called attention to lb fact that Chattanooga was tho northern central point of tho great system of South ern railways. Chattanooga stands in the lower Cum berland Gap, tho great water gap through which tho river passes; tho great railroad lines from the Atlantic coast, from the Gulf of Mexico, front tho direction of N ew Orleans, all verge to that common point. They converge there, ns explained by Col. Gnw, from, absolute necessity occasioned by tho conformation of the country. They could not lmvo been built otherwise. The first great trunk is tho Western & Atlantic, front Chattanooga to Atlanta, 138 miles in length, with an income of 81,- 250,000, connecting at Atlanta with the Georgia road, from Atlanta to Augusta, Ga., 171 miles, with an income of 81,500,- 000; connecting also with tho South Caro lina-Railroad, from Augusta to Charles ton, and branch to Columbia, S. O., 205 miles,'“with an income of about 81,250,000, nnd with tho Wilmington & Manchester road, Kingvillo to Wilmington, N. C., 171 miles, with an income exceeding half a million dollars. Returning to Atlanta, asastnrtingpoint, we lmvo thence to Macon, Ga„ the Macon & Western Road, 103 miles, with an income of about §400,000 per annum; connecting with the Southwestern Railway toEufaula, Ala., 142 miles, with branches to Fort Gaines and Albany, Ga., 51 miles, a total of 104 miles of tho Southwestern road and branches, with an income of over 8800,000 per annum. Returning to Macon, we lmvo the road from Macon to Savannah. Ga., by tho Cen tral road, with Its branches to Mllledge- ville nnd Augusta, Ga., 288 miles, with an income of $1,500,000; also tho Atlantic & Gulf road—Savannah to Balnbridgo, Ga., 230 miles, with a side lino of 40 miles, con necting with tho entire railway system of Florida; total enrning exceeding ono upl and pn tho west With the Selma & Meri dian road, 107 miles, which in turn con nects with VIcksburg&McrkllunHullroad, to Ateksburg, Mias., 140 miles, )icuetrat- Ing tho heart of tho cotton region of central Alabama and Mississippi. Tho third great trunk lino was tho Ala bama & Chattanooga, from Chattanooga to Meridian. 275 miles, through tho Wills Valley, via Elyton and Tuscaloosa. Tho Wills Vallov is particularly rich in coni and iron, The mountains on either sldo for a distance along the route of 00 miles, uralUiqdwtththesemlnomls. Inconslruct- Ing this road cuts were frequently madu through iron. In some Instances embank ments were made of iron ore taken from the excayntions. This road then passes hroilglt the Black Warrior coal field, om- u-aclngfi'om 5,00(1 to 7,0011 square miles, with iron nnd coal lying side by side. It is now in process of rapid construc tion, the work progressing on each end.— About fifty miles are already completed. Arrangements nre iflso being ;>crfected far Its continuance from Meridian to New Or leans, about too miles, making this, via Chattanooga & Cincinnati, thu shortest lino from New Orleans to tho northern railroads, and connecting at New Orleans with tile system of Texas roads. The fourth great lino ft'om Chattanooga Is that from Montgomery to Decatur, Al abama, about 185 miles, thenee, by tho Memphis & Charleston road, to Chatta nooga. Tho former is under contract iu the hands of responsible parties, to be coin- deted within two years. Tims, you lmvo wo great trunk lines, penetrating Ala bama to thu Gulf—one through tho heart of the cotton region—the other ponetrut- Ing the great coal .and iron regions of the Suite. The fifth great trank lino Is that of tho Memphis & Charleston Railroad, from Chtltutnoogn due west to Memphis, on the banks of the Mississippi, 30!) miles, with an income exceeding $1,500,000 per an num. In addition to these five trunk lines, there nre tha Nashville & Chattanooga, 151 miles, and tho East Tennessee & Geor gia, 112 miles, Chattanooga to Knoxville, making seven grand trunk lines centering at Chattanooga, amounting, in tiro aggre gate, to over 11,500 miles of road in nctual operation, besides COO miles In process of construction. Colonel Hulbert, after this careful and valuable exposition of the system of South ern Railway’, closed with the fallowing re flections: ‘‘Chattanooga being the northern center ofthe great railroad system of tho South, nnd Cincinnati being tho center of the Southern line of the great railway system between the Rocky Mountains and the coast—with tho completion of this propos ed Southern road, Cincinnati will com mand the entire trade of tho Gulf of Mex ico, almost tha entire cotton trado of the South. Timo wns.when cotton was mov ed mainly by water. That time has pass ed. The commodity is too valuable.— Steamer's and sail vessolskiro too slow.— Three-fourths of the cotton crop, since the war, hns been moved by rail, although tho difiluulties in the way are now.great, having to ship by roundabout routes. In conscquonco of this, far threo years, the shipment of our cotton crop hns beun de layed, and our planting interests have suffered. We feel the necessity of a great railway connection with the Northern rail way system. S'Chattanooga is nearly on an air line to Pensacola; nnd from there it is only eigh teen hours! run to Havana. With such a grand rlmroud qjMMi<MMi€lnciunnti ought to control the sugar trade.

[Renewed cheers.). “There is no railroad pro|eet onHiis continent so important to the great inter ests ofthe country at luree as this (tingle line. Cincinnatians it in lief power, with in ten years, to command the trade of the Gulf of Mexijjoj almost the eutire trado of tho cotton States, and tho trado of South America.

The Constitutional Union, published at Washington, maintains Hint tile people of the United States have already passed un der tho yoke of a new and arbitrary gov ernment. It says iu tho commencement of a long anil ipurgent article: It is a gravo and startling thing to know that tho present government of tho U nited States is ono unknown to the constitution and never designed by the People. It is a government created during and since the war by the Radical Leaders. It consists substantially of a closed Caucus controlled by those Leaders. It is, consequently, real Oligarchy. The so-called President of this concern, by signing tho tenurc-of-oflicc act, the re sult of a conspiracy between tlie two Houses of Congress to test his fealty to them, has virtually abandoned the otfico described ill thu constitution as a co-ordi- nnto aud independent department of the government ofthe United StatdS, nnd sur rendered to the oligarchs the cxecuiivo powers lodged in his hands by tlie People.

An exchange says: “Years ago a Penn sylvania farmer stabbed hiS young wife in a fit of drunken insanity and fled to the West, supposing himself a murderer.— The woman recovered, nnd after five years of solitary life, married again. Her sec ond husband died in a few months, and sho also went West. There she met a prosperous and wealthy merchant, was wooed and wedded; and upon disrobing in tho bridal chamber tho bridegroom saw upon her neck the sear of tho wound he himself hnd made, and recognized his wife of years befare.” From Culm.

The Pacific Railroad. The total length of the Pacific Railroad, from Sacramento to New York, is 3,181 miles. This is a greater distance than that which separates the American conti nent from Europe. It surpasses all other railroads in length, as it is likely to exceed all others in its importance; though this latter is a disputed point, and must remain an unsettled one till tho question ofthe fall success of this great undertaking is determined.
