Atlanta, Wednesday, April, 17.
The man who now attempts to find
Ihe materials for a good newspaper let
ter from Atlanta sets about a task o'
varied difficulty. We do tot admit
that the city is dull. Not au inhabi
tant, from the youngest to the oldest
but would rise in protest against such
a statement, for if you do not know it
we will tell you. Atlanta is never dull.
But we will venture the remark that at
present it is as far from excitement as
wehave seen it for some time. Still
there is much going on in a |uiet way.
On these bright lazy afternoons you
may see the wholesale merchant suiil
ing blandly on the shady si le of his big
establishment, severely counting the
gains of the busy spring trade and sur
veying the scores of boxes .packed by
his slinily paid clerks.
Local polities too are creating some
quiet but intense interest. The bien
nial election for Mayor comes off next
fall and already there are at least three
prominent citizens who are willing to
become martyrs to popular clamor and
take the office. The city chartfit_B“?*-
if itrrptvs' a*scltn.u rrrnriri-.-i ri.o uon
orable gentleman now in the chair will
not, of course, he a candidate again,
though he has been a good and con.
Bcientiotis officer. Atlanta is like most
cities idthicted with political rings that
play the deuce when they get started.
These petty rings do not become as
famously fraudulent as those of Phil
adelphia and other rotten boroughs for
they have not the material to work on
and on the whole are r.ot as had as
;*aost political rings of now-a-days,
j A warm fight between hostile local
idivisions in politics may be looked for.
•Any good nafnred citizen who is not
pftev an office and has a spite against
nobody may stand calmly by and enjoy
pll the mud slinging that will be in
,dulged in.
, Just now the city is filling up with
Relegates to the International Sundny
pohool Convention that meets here to
slay. Canada and all the States except
pwo or three will be represented. The
general bu.-iness of the body will be to
fjonsult as to the Sunday School work
v hroughout the whole country and to
e ryand devise a system of international
(Sunday School lessons. This last at
tempt is dear'y impracticable and will
io broken very quick by sectarian
prejudice and dogmas, It soetns that
..here is too much talk and useless work
way iu the Christian world of late
Such intricate machinery as
now used is perhaps nut so good as
jjba simple plans of evangelizing the
that our grandfathers used to
Relieve in. We would not underrate
j. ie importance of this big convention,
jU is a gathering of men, some of them
j,eß of ability, from all sections of the
aion and this coming together will
i good in the way of destroying sto
.yna! prejudice and making the true
j R tates of the South better understood,
it as to the real religious good to be
pr| ° °
we are somewhat skepti
jml. There is little danger of’ harm
jwever and we will watch the pro-
with interest.
I notice frequently passing through
. iis city caus of minute fish which
Ul .
from the rich rivers of the North
£ p .d West, and are carried South
stock the rivers which Congress has
ic/ced to favor. The fish used are
ec p
lad and Salmon of the finest varieties,
, n d they thrive splendidly in our own
) Ahern waters. Congress has not
cn as liberal to tlie South iu this
atter as it might. Our Representa
>'cs ovight to take hold of this matter
and baug on to it with untiring perti
nacity. We want to pull just as much
out of the national treasury as we can
get. We have Dot in years gotten our
just dues from those money bags, and
they are now so fat because we are so
poor. The stocking of Southern river
is an important matter, fraught with
great interest to us. Our small rivers
are not now of much use to us. Filled
with fine fish they would be priceless.
The Oconee, I believe, has, had some
little help in this way, but not so much
as it deserves. Stocked as it should
be, you would soon learu the value of
this mode of utilizing our streams. —
Our Congressmen should ' lose no
chance to promote this interest iu Con
gress. We are after an appropriation

Our Washington Letter.
[From our Regular Correspondent ]
Washington,’D. C.. April 15, ’7B.
The events of the past week in Con
gress have been fraught with unusual
excitement, beginning with the settle
ment of the door-keeper muddle on
Monday, and the passage of a bill pla
cing the gallant old veteran, General
Shields, upon the retired list. But
these proceedings magnified as they
had been into matters of national im
portance were entirely overshadowed
by the Waterloo defeat of Jay Gould
and his lobby in the Senate. Accord
ing to the idea of • .Marine band Har
rison” who proudly stands up and ex
claims, “[ am an American Congress
man”— the country lias been agitated
and shaken from stern to stem over the
short-coming of a poor door keeper
whom such wind instruments ns Hurri-
son lias aunoyed to death to obtain
places (or strikers. The secret of all
this muss is that some Congressmen
think their chances of re-election are
slim utilcss they can show their influ
dice in obtaining places. Re-election
is the only thing they now have in
sight, and if there were to bo no elec
tions for members next fall the pro
ceedings of Congress would make a dif
ferent showing. The popular song is;
“110, boys, carry tr.e ’Jong,
Curry me till I die ;
Carry me up to the public crib —
But don’t you carry tne by.”
But tlie passage of the Railroad fut -
ding bill iu the Senate, in spite of
Gould and his "powerful lobby, is one
of tlie most important, acts of tlie ses
sion. It evinces a purpose to control
ply with their obligations to the gov
ernment, by at least paying up what
they owe. The scenes [about the Sen
ate during the last hours of the debate
aid the votes upon the hill beggar de
scription. Gould, who had*superinten
ded the efforts to defeat it in person,
flitted about restless and anxious. llis
operations were carried on openly, flit
ting from the office of tbe Sergeant at-
Aruts to the floor, and even into what
is known as the President’s room ad
joining the Chamber. Up to the last
moment his agents had professed confi
deuce, and when defeat came by a vote
of 41 to 19 it was cru-hing. They will
now concentrate upon the House, and
endeavor to amend the bill. To Sena
tor Thurman, who is to-day the most
powerful man in the Autericau Con
gress, the credit of this result is chiefly
due.
Eating and drinking are cardinal
objects of existence here iu Washing
ton rather more than anywhere else iu
this quarter of tlie globe. To dine and
be dined is one of tbe chief ends of
social and official life, and the giving
of good dinners has become one of the
fine arts. The instances of men who
have accomplished important ends or
risen to great worldly heights by this
means, where they never could have
done so by any other, arc numerous.—
It is a fact susceptible of proof, that
the men who have become most influ
ential in Congress were dinner givers.
Most of our public men agree that
“A man can bear
A world's contempt, when he has that
within
Which’’—braces him up,
no matter whether it enters through
his mind or his stomach. It is said
that (lie knowledge of how to give
good dinners made Colfax Speaker ;
that Blaine used the same seductive
means of success ; that Simon Cameron
is a peer of the great Sam Ward him
self ; that Henry Wilson rose by din
ners, and at last practically succumbed
to too much eating ; and that Sumner
did not despise to reach men’s heads
through their stomachs. The most
frequent [and best giver of dinners
now-i-days is said to be Mr. Hewitt,of
whom a writer says : “His owu stom
ach surrendered to his artistic palate
years ago, but his science is still in its
prime. There is hardly a day in the
seven that a dozen knees are not
kuockiug neighborly, under his ma
hogany.” Fernando Wood is set dowD
as a liberal entertainer, but his dinners
are too much like grand banquets, and
the guests too numerous. Nevada
Jones’ dinners are elaborate feasts.—
Thurman’s are quiet and enjoyable, and
Bayard’s arc eaten mostly by Western
members. But the mantle of Simon
Cameron seems to have alighted upon
Ben Butler. Those seductive little
champagne lunches which earned the
Foreign Affairs Committee room the
soubriquet of ‘Cameron’s pantry,’ are
spread now in the stone palace across
the way. Until I learned the mystery
of those lunches and saw how easy it
was to slip a member or a Senator out
while an important bill was pending, I
never understood why Butler built his
bouse where it stands, two miles nearly
from the fashionable quarter of the
city.
But it may as well be understood
while on the subject that one need not
necessarilly be invited out to get a
••square meal” iu Washington. This
is pre-eminently a city of hash houses,
of every grade, good, bad arid indiffer
ent —principally indiffereut. There are
plenty of good hotels however, where
the wayfaring man and the stranger
can be taken in and handsomely done
for. Some of them have histories in
terspersed with romantic incidents
which might be the subject of an in
teresting chapter. There is the Arling
ton, Willards, the Ebbitt and the Na
tional, all well known. But the last
year has not been a profitable one
anion" them, and last summer two of
the above named were known to be on
the verge of financial ruin, Iho new
Hig'.'S is the hotel par excellence of the
Capital, and every day dinners aro
served here equal to the best Fernando
Wood or Abe Hewitt can do. But
when a man stops there he wants to
adjust his lank account and arrange to
draw on his friends at home in case of
emergency. It’s very costive, The
Tremont has come to boa favorite
stopping place for people who want
first class accommodations at a moderate
price. Mr Hill, the present proprie
tor, knows how to keep a hotel. He
has made the house very attractive,and
the best of it is, one can spend a few
days under its roof without leaving his
pocket-book when he goes away. The
National will be remembered as the
scene of the attempted poisoning o!
President Buchanan at the time the
passions which resulted in our civil
war were at their height. The poison
was put in a water tank and resulted
in a very serious affair - PHONO.

Having scon the lines which I
copy below in the public print, and
believing that they might do good
in some localities (of course we
have no such characters in Greenes
boro) 1 beg for them a place in
the Herald: “The story is told of
a woman who freely used her
tongue to the scandal of othes
and made confessions to the priest
of what she had dene, lie gave
her a ripe thistle-top. and told her
to go out in various directions and
scatter the seeds one by one.—
Wondeting at the penance, 6he
obeved, and then returned and
tol l her confession, To her amaze
ment, he made her go back and
gather the scattered seeds; and
when she objected that it would be
impossible, he replied that it wou’d
be still more difficult to gather up
and destroy all evil reports which
she had circulated about others.—
Any thoughtless, careless child can
scatter a handful of thistle seeds
before the wind in a moment, but
the strongest and wisest man can
not gathor them again.”

[ADVERTISE ME N T. j
To tlie Public.
There is hardly an exception to the
rule that the public, or at least the
most influential portion of it, listens
with great impatience to the recital of
personal grievances when these do tr t
iu any direct manner affect them. I
fear that the narrative nf facts which I
am about to give, partakes veiy largely
of that quality which will include it in
;he usual category, an i possibly subject
me to the charge of obtruding matters
upon the attention of the community
which should be confined tt; myself.—
But after full reflection I am firmly
persuaded that among my social rights,
I have this one, that is to say, the right
to call for the public judgement upon
the conduct of an adversary, when that
individual betakes himself from the
reach of persoual responsibility.
If I err in this view of the case, I
promise to give as little offence as pos
sible, and say as little as will be consis
tent with a fair statement of my griev
ance.
It is well known to many that I was
an applicant for the appointment of
United States Marshal for the State,
and equally well knowu that, among the
numerous ca ndidates for the position,
my chances for success ranked among
the very first. Indeed, I may as well
say, that I was informed directly by a
member of tfje Cabinet, that my ap
pointment had been formally settled on
in Cabinet meeting. How this favor
able decision on my application was af
terwards thwarted, it does not become
me to speak now. Suffice it to say,the
influential friends who were earnestly
at work for me in Washington were not
more surprised at the very sudden and
informal turn which was given to my
application, than I was tnyself. But
one thing seemed to be settled beyond
peradventure, and that was that I could
not be the lucky man, as the complica
tion existed, and so I withdrew. Both,
before I resolved on this course and
afterwards, I was approached by Col.
O. P. Fitzsimmons, who was himself
an applicant for the place I had been
seekiug, and by him was offered an in
terest in the office of Marshal if I would
bring to his support certain very in
fluential friends who were for me against
the field, and who had expressly de
clined to aid Col. Fitzsimmons because
they were so committed. After with
drawing my name from the contest, I
made an express agreement with Col.
Fitzsimmons that on the understanding
referred to I would bring to his support
those of my friends whose
aid ho regarded not only val
uable, but indispensibie.. This
co i.paet was faithfully kept, and these
distinguished and influential names
were carried to Col. Fitzsimmons’ sup
port. After this gentioman received
the appointment of United States Mar
shal, largely owing, as I believe, to tbe
support of my friends, I quietly and
patiently awaited tbe fulfillment of his
promises to me. In due time, but not
till then. I addressed Col. Fitzsimmons
a respectful note, calling his attention
to the facts as I have here detailed
them. Tj this cote he replied. 1 then
addressed him a second note. To this
n te no answer was returned. A third
note, and then a fourth was transmitted,
before this majestic silence vras broketi
To the fouith note, which contained
Some severe reflections upon the unjust
and disrespectful manner in which T
had been treated by Col Fitzsimmons,
ho returned such an answer as he knew
full well could receive but one sort of
answer from a gentleman. Promptly
he was informed by letter, that as soon
as a distant friend could be beard from
further correspondence would be re
ceived by him, and then again, in a few
hours after this last note, t explained
in a hurried line or two. why he had
not received any further commuuica
tion from me, and assigning a day cer
tain when he should hear from me.
This letter was returned to me with
the seal unbroken, and with the in
dorsement that he would receive no
further communication from me
Every man of sense and honor in the
community sees at a glance what a nar
row and savage alternative is here of
fered. Perfidious befrayal of confidence
is met by insult, and then redress is
denied, only on such terms a3 is shock
ing to every sentiment of a hiuh civili
zation, and as would in all probability
lead to a widening of a private griev
ance into such a complication as might
be shocking to a peaceful community.
I must then crave the forgiveness of
all who may read these reluctant words,
for, resorting to the only satisfaction
which the chivalrous 00l Fitzsimmons
has left nte, aud to this whole people I
denounce him as a man without honor,
who betrays his friend—falsifies his
plighted faith, and defends himself by
brazen denials and fresh falsehoods.
