The Political Out-hook.
Tlic party leaders and political
magnates of the conntiy are now j
arranging and preparing to de- i
ploy their skirmish lines for the
great Presidential contest this fad.
Within the last decade, the Presi
dency has become a much more
important position than heretofore,
in the eyes of politicians, on ac
count of the immense patronage
incident to that office. Thousands
of desirable offices, with good sal
aries attached and abundant oppor
tunity for stealing, have been cre
ated and the powers of appoint
ment vested in the Piesidcnt and
his subordinates. Hence there is
frequently other inducements to
keep aspirants in a state of fever
ish excitement than patriotism.
The Republican party lias now
enjoyed a lease of power for eight
years. For two years there has
been growing dissatisfaction with
the administration of Gen. Grant,
even in the ranks of his own par
ty. It has been painfully evident ,
that the qualifications essential to
constitute a military chieftain,
Inight not render him competent
to administer successfully the du
ties of the executive of a great
nation. This dissatisfaction has !
continued to spread until we now
see a large number of the ablest
and most influential statesmen of j
his party in open rebellion against
him. Those upon whom he lean
ed for support four years ago,
now denounce him in unmeasured
terms as but the tool of unscrupu
lous and dishonest demagogues.
Sumner, the great apostle of
abolitionism, Greeley, Trumbull, .
Fenton, Cox, Logan, Schurz, Grata
Grown, and a large number of oth
er iccognized leaders in the Re
publican party, have cut loose
from tlic administration, and bold
ly proclaim their hostility to it;
and so bitter has been the denun
ciation, and so intense the feeling,
that all efforts to produce harmo
ny has thus far proved futile.—
What will be the result of this
split is now merely conjecture,
but it will be seen as the cam- ;
paign progresses.
lii the meantime, the Democrats
are watching the progress of the
fight with no small degree of sat
isfacti m. Like the devil at the
horse-race—“everything is going
on right.” Astounding develop
ments are being made not hereto
fore known outside of the family
circle— developments which will
be held up to .the gaze of a plun
dered people from a thousand plat
forms before the first of November.
The regular organization of the
Republican party will hold their
nominating convention in Phila
delphia in May, and it is conceded
that Grant, through the immense
power which he wields will secure
the nomination of that convention.
The Liberal Republicans, as they
call themselves, are proposing to
hold a convention in Cincinnati,
but it is regarded as doubtful
whether they will make a no nina
tion at all; it is thought probable
that that convention will simply
ratify the nomination made by the
National Labor Convention, of
Judge Davis for President and
Gov. Parker for Vice President,
and attempt to unite their friends
with tne immense labor unions of
the country.
If this course is adopted, then
tlio important enquiry will arise,
what will the Democratic jxirty do ?
It has been suggested that the
Democratic Convention bo post
poned until July, in order that
they may see the situation of the
contending forces before they de
termine upon their line of battle.
This certainly will give them an
advantage; for they can then
either put a candidate in nomina
tion and take their chances with
the other two parties, or unite
with the opposition to Grant’s ad
ministration and make a common
fight upon the corruption which
has grown up under Uudical rule.
As to w hich is the proper course
for tho Democratic party to pur
sue connot be determined until
the situation is fully understood.
It seems that a braes of untamed
peacocks are worrying the w ild hunts
men of this county.
jC37" We publish below seme
good advice from a practical far
mer. There are some years when
the country seems to grow wild
upon the subject of cotton. Our
observation since the wai is, that
those sections of the country which
raise a sufficient quantity of pro
visions for home consumption arc
in a move prosperous condition—
more independent of factors and
commission merchants, freer from
debt, and are improving more rap
idly than those sections where
cotton is exclusively raised :
The way to give advice that is
acceptable is, first find out what is
intended to be done by the parties
you are advising, ami then be sure
to advise them that they are doing
right, and yon will be considered
a good counsellor; but to give
counsel against the intentions of
men brings the counsellor to ap
pear to them as an enemy.
Now, Mr. Editor, 1 propose to j
give the people some good advice, •
whether they receive it or not.—
From the present indications there
is going to be one of the largest
cottun crops planted this year that
iias ever been planted in Georgia.
The result can only result one of
two ways —we will perhaps make
a very abundant crop, which will
certainly result in reduced prices,
at.il with the reduced price in cot
ton be compelled to buy corn at
perhaps high prices. Or else we
will tail of an extra yield, owing
to some misfortune in the crop,
which is often the case, in either
case the money received for the
crop whether a good or poor one,
will nearly be the same, but the
necessity will certainly be that
almost all the Southern people
where the cotton crop is grown,
wil! have to look to the North and
West for nearly all their supplies of
provisions, with a heavy debt to
meet for fertilizers.
Now it is evident that the mule
that plows must cat as well as the
man that holds the plow, and it is
equally evident that if we do not
raise our own provisions we have
them to buy, and away goes the
“bottom dollar’’ to the West for
Corn and bacon.
Every farmer knows that it is
much easier to make and gather a
grain crop than a cotton crop. The
only true road to success is to be
sure to plant grain sufficient for
our support; and if able to do
anything more, then have the sur
plus in cotton.
There is an opinion, however,
that (lie Southern people can make
a living cheaper by making cotton
and buying their provisions. It is
only an opinion of some and is not
true; for no farmer can ever feel
or be independent who has his
corn and meat to buy, even if cot
ton were always to bring 20c$s
per pound. Still it is best to make
our own provisions. Suppose the
entire South were to plant nothing
but cotton for the next five yeais,
in that time ten cents per pound
would be the highest market price.
The Northern people would have
the louth almost at their mercy ;
for t iey would compel ns to take
their prices both for our cotton
and (heir grain. Now there is a
better and a more easy way, that
is for every farmer to be sure to
plant plenty of corn, sow largely
of oats, plant Irish and sweet po
tatoes, plant peas of every variety,
sow in the fall plenty of wheat—
sow more and tend less land, build
mills and cotton factories, and
gins and shops on every shoal in
the country; dig canals, build
railroads, give employment to our
own people, invite capital into our
country, elect our best men to of
fice, make them feel that they are
responsible to the people for their
public acts, respect virtue and
honor, give every man his due,
both black and white—for God
lias given us one of the best por
tions of the earth, which posses
scs more valuable and varied re
sources than many other couutiies
which are far richer than we are.

Strange Matrimonial Freaks—
StNoi'LAR Advertisements —We saw
a reliable gentleman yesterday,
just returned from a visit in the
vicinity of Gainesville, who tells
the following story :
The wife of Mr. Stringer, who
lives near Gainesville, and who
was formerly a Radical Senator in
the State Legislature, died some
weeks since. In six days after
her decease, Mr. Stringer married
his second wife. It, however,
appears that their connubial
felicity was not calculated to be
of permanent duration. As an in
teresting detioumeat to their little
comedy of married life, lie chas
tised her. She left him and took
refuge in her father’s home. Since
that mournful event, Mr. Stringer
has been apparently disconsolate.
Immediately in front of Ida house,
on the road side, ho has nailed on
two trees each, a plank three by
one foot in dimensions, on which
he has inscribed in hold letters,
with charcoal, these words : “Ccmc
Home ;* “Come Home, my Dear
Wife” There is a similar play
card on his house, bearing the
same inscription: “Come Home,
my dear wife!”

The Whereabouts of the Thieves —
Negotiations with Blodgett—Office
Seekers—A ppointnun tof J udges —
The Brunswick Second Stale Aid
Bill—A Strange Fact.
Atlanta, Ga., Mar. 22, 1872.
Editors Telegraph and Messenger :
Since writing you on the 20lh
inst, lloyt has been re-arrested.
He was caught about four miles
from the city. He pretends now
to be crazy. I presume that dodge
will keep him out of jail and the
penitentiary. Georgia will lose
her $185,000, and honest men will
miss the opportunity of seeing one
of the thieves under Grant & Alex
ander. I doubt whether any of the
ringleaders will be convicted.—
Bullock is gone, Blodgett is gone,
aiid Kimball, the greatest thief of
them all, is gone. 1 hear that lie
is now in Switzerland, and is en
joying his ill gotten gains, Blod
gett has laKen refuge in the do
minions of King Scott, of South
Carolina. One of the committees
here has been coquetting with him
some time, trying to induce him to
come over and testify before it on
some very important matters to
the State and himself. The com
mittee proposed to allow him to
come under flag of truce —not to
undest him in coming and going.
This he refused. The committee
then proposed to him to go to
Newberry, where he is, and take
his testimony'. This he also refus
ed, saying that lie would come here
and testily, provided Gov. Smith
would send him an assurance, un
der the great seal of the Stale,
that he should not be arrested un
til bis pardon by Conley was final
ly decided by the courts. This, of
course, the Governor had no au
thoiity to do, which ends the mat
ter of Blodgett’s testifying, lie
feels safe in South Carolina, as
King Scott assured him that under
no circumstances would lie sign a
requisition for his arrest from
Gov. Smith. Scott, doubtless, has
a fellow feeding for Blodgett. Bul
lock is still in New York, starting
at < very shadow, and hiding from
every officer. No more magnifi
cent turnouts in Central Park; no
more champagne baths; no more
cutting the swell at the Fifth Ave
nue. Clews, I am told, cuts him
on every occasion, and damns him
for tunning away before be had
made all his friends safe in their
investments. Poor Rufus! none
now so low as to do him homage.
Perhaps before very long Grant
and Alexander may interview hint,
and inquire something about iiis
position and endorsement of bonds
Applications for office still con
tinue to pour in upon Gov. Smith,
I believe there are nine Judges and
Solicittis General to appoint, and
1 am informed there are eighty-
Ui reo applicants for Judges’ places,
and ninety-one for Solicitors G ne
ral. 1 learn that no application
lias been received from the Macon
circuit. What is the matter with
the lawyers of your circuit ? Do
none of them want office? Per
haps it is just as well for them
that they have not applied.
I learn that Gov. Smith has come
to the conclusion that the terms of
tlie four years Judges do not ex
pire until January, 1873, and that
consequently he has no power of
appointment, but it will devolve
upon the Governor to be elected
next fall. This position is correct,
in my opinion. If Bullock had
not fled, we certainly would have
insisted that he had no right to
appoint Judges after liis adminis
tration had been condemned by the
people. If the precedent is now
set for an out going Governor to
appoint the judicial oflicers of the
State, you will readily see that no
newly-elected Governor, fresh from
tlie people, willever have the pow
er to appoint ihe civil rulers of
tlie people. Then it is said, also,
that iT the term of tlie four year
Judges expires in July, does not
the term of the Governor himself
expire also ? Bullock was elected
for four years, and three Judges
were appointed for four years.
Are the four years of the Governor
longer than the four years of the
Judges ?
1 learn that the Bond Committee
lias made some very strange dis -
eoverics in relation to the passage
and signing of the second State
aid hill to the Brunswick and Al
bany Railroad hill. The hill was
passed on the 7th of September,
(870, and wa« approved on the
17th of October, 1870, nearly forty
days after its passage.
The friends of the bill say that
was occasioned by a joint resolu
tion requiring the presiding offi
cers of the two houses to withhold
all State aid bills from the Gov
ernor until all had been acted on
by the Legislature. This resolu
tion was approved October 17,
1870—the same day of the appro
val of the bill. It appears from
tho journals that the chairman of
the Enrolling Committee reported
on the l‘Jth October that the hill
had been enrolled and was then
ready for the signatures of the
presiding officers of the House
and Senate. This was two days
after it had been approved by Bul
lock. It further appears from the ;
same journal that on the 25th of
October Bullock sent a message te
the House informing them that he
had approved that identical till. j
Yet the original bill now on file in |
the office of the Secretary of State
shows, in Bullock’s own hand
writing, that he approved it on
October 17th. This bill gave that
road $1,880,000 of the gold bonds
of the Slate besides the $15,000
per mile in the first act granting
State aid. Two days after lie sent :
liis message to the House inform- j
ing them that he had approved
this bill, lie issued the above
amount of bonds to Kimball, tak
ing second mortgage bonds of the
road as security. Occasional.

Tlie Murdered C’lievalcr.
De Bianco's Bonds—The Inner His
tory of the Murder—The Web of
Guilt Closing on Carl Vogt.
The thrilling situations in the
murder of Biiggs, the English mer
chant, in a railway carriage on the
London and Northwestern lino, the
successive steps by which the acute
Inspector Tanner, of the Scotland
Yard Detective Force, obtained point,
after point day after day, the discov
rv of the jeweller’s store in which
Mr. Brigg’s watch was sold, the find
ing of Muller’s old hat, the fixing of
the daring crime upon that desperate
murderer, and his (light to this coun
try,arrest, and subsequent execution in
England, are promised to he “equaled
if not excelled,’’ say the police, by
the romatic incidents in the case of
the German, Carl Vogt, or rather
Joseph Stupp, now lying in the
Tombs prison charged with the mur
der and robbery of the Chevalier
Dubois de Bianco, in Brussels, Bel
gium. in October, 1871. The Count
was stabbed in his bedroom, the keys
of his safe taken, a large amount in
Dutch and Belgian railway stocks
and securities taken, and the house
set on fire by the murderers. A for
mer servant of the Chevalier, named
Joseph Stupp, disappeared from Brus
sels. lie was strongly suspected by
the Brussels police. Circulars were
sent the chiefs of police in other
counties, and one of the missing
bonds was traced through London
to a large banker in this city.
The New York police were at once
notified, and the bond traced to a
Broadway gambler named Miles,
who said that a German living at
Prescott House had lost it in play.
From the description given by Miles,
Detective Farley found that the man,
who passed under the name of Carl
Vogt, had gone to Philadelphia,
where the officer proceeded and ar
rested him with his wife in the Re
try House. They were brought
here and the wife discharged from
custody. Owing to there being no
extradition treaty between this coun
try and Belgium the only charge that
the man Vogt could be detained on
was one of bringing stolen bonds
within the State. In order to prove
the bonds stolen the cable telegraph
was fieelv used, and the last despatch
received fiom the Belgian officials
was to the effect that the descrip
tion of Vogt and his wife correspond
ed exactly with those of de Bianco’s
servant. Joseph Stupp and his wife,
who had so mysteriously disappeared
from Brussels after the murder ol the
Chevalier. There is no doubt among
officers here but that Vogt is the man
Stupp, for an intercepted letter from
him to his wife betrays tear and
guilt in almost every word. The
probable cause of tlie murder is now
for the first time stated. Mr. Hen
derson, a w ealthy resident of this city,
while doing the European tour last
year made tlie acquaintance of the
Chevalier Dubois de Bianco, and
they became very intimate. De
Bianco informed him that he had
been intimate with a girl named
Wesleugras. alias llninault, and that
wishing to be rid of her, bis servant
Stupp lia<l aided him in every way,
and, finally, when nothing else could
be done, married the Chevalier’s
cast-off mistress. Soon after this,
the elite of Brussels were startled
by the news that Stupp bad sued
the Chevalier for false pretence, al
leging that in the event of his mar
rying tlie girl Westengras the count
had agreed to give him a pension.
This was not done, and the suit at Jaw
followed. Stupp was nonsuited and
discharged by the Chevalier. Mr.
Henderson, who was in Brussels
with I)e Bianco, will appear at the
Tombs Court this moling,* and,
should he be able to identify Vogt
will prosecute him to the bitter end.
Should be succeed in so doing, the
little examination on the other side of
the ocean will be a trifle of the various
character to the scene tins morning.
Mr. Henderson, if able to identity
Dr. Corks will create a genuiue sen
sation.
Two dogs, while fox hunting,
ran the animal to Stone Mountain,
and in their excitement managed
to land on an inaccessible crag,
some six hundred feet front the
summit. A party weut to their
rescue, and a young nan, named
Julian, made a perilous descent by
means ot a rope and helped them
from their position. The act is
said to be one of the most daring
ever known.

President Making—Charles Fran
cis Adams Proposed:— The N. Y.
World of Thursday, in comment
ing on the suggestion of a corres
pondent that the Demociatic party
nominate Charles Francis Adams
for the Presidency, says :
There is no eminent citizen of
the United States who would make
a more able, upright, independet, I
safe and patriotic President than
Charles Francis Adams, or who
would so surely restoie to that
high office the dignity it possessed
in the better days of the Republic.
He is in every reaped tlie opposite
of Gen. Grant —in capacity, stan
ding, civil experience, statesman- j
like know-ledge and civil esteem. '
If Mr. Adams should receive the j
joint nominations of the Cincin-!
nati Convention, and the Demo
cratic National Convention, there j
is no statesman of either party
whom we could support with more
zeal or greater satisfaction. Hav
ing been abroad during the civil
war, taking no active partin poli
tics since his return, there is noth
ing in his record to which either
Democrats or liberal Republicans
could object. The drift of Demo
cratic sentiment favors the nomi
nation of some liberal Republican
of high character; and in such a
combined movement as is now in
Qontemplation, there are likely to
be conflicting preferences in the
early stages of the movement. —
Whether the candidate finally set
tled upon, after a fair comparison
nf views, be Mr. Adams, Gov.
Blown, Senator Trumbull or Judge
Davis, we shall give him an equal
:ly hearty support. Mr. Adams’
qualifications for the office are
pre-eminent; and yet it may be
the final judgment of the two con
vent ions that some other admira
ble candidate would have more
i chances of an election. “I do not
I prescribe,” said a physician, “the
best medicine I know, but the best
I can get the patient to take.”

I>read of the Bonapartes In
France.
Rmnor has it that otic of the
members of the Murat family,
while on liis way from England to
France, quite recently, was arrest
ed at Calais and compelled to re
turn. Count Murat, or Prince
| Murat, as some prefer to call him,
i is a member of the Imperial fam
ily- ; and the presumption on the
1 part of the Thiels Government
j that he was bent on some business
: in connection with the restoration
; of the Bonapartes was not unnat
i nral. If this report proves to be
correct it will furnish another and
most substantial proof that the
: Thiers Government is painfully
I sensitive as to the danger which
threatens it on the side of the Bo
napartes. Nay, more. It seems
to imply that the danger is not
imaginary; but real. MacMahon
| is still at 1 lie bead of the army;
; and while changes are made in all
directions the French army re
mains substantially wliat it was
under the empire. 'Die general
feeling is that while MacMahon
might at any moment remove Pres
ident Thiers, it is not in the power
of President Thiers to dispense
with the servici s of the Comman
der in Chief. In France tilings
arc not quite as they should be.
\Ye are most anxious to see the
Republic prosper and take root.
But what with the daily executions
of Communists, the inexplica
ble and fruitless coquetting with
royalty and the awful dread of the
return of the Bonapartes, we are
not encouraged to believe that
| France has yet found her gaol.
There must be more sorrow before
there is rest, peace and prosperity.
