m& dfamssk JLouisville, Gra: FRIDAY AUGUST 4, IS7I. Mob Law in Georgia. Under this caption, the Augusta Con* stitutionalisl of the 23th ult., advances tome Bound and indispensable truths, which wo believe meet the views and will receive the prompt and uncompro mising co-operation of every community in Georgia. In fact, so far as the in stances have reached us, they form but the reflex sentiraeuts of the great body of our people—the Pross especially— only our Augusta contemporary has given to the subject a greater range in his charges and specifications’ condemnato ry of Lynch law in any form, than we have noticed from other quarters. We regret that our space this week does not allow our inserting his article entire. We purpose however, recurring to it again, when we may endeavor to ventilate the subject in some of its more subtle rami fications—in other words, we shall expa tiate upon the effects of Lord-deputy Angelo’s philosophy— “Thieves for their robbery have authority, When Judges steal themselves.”— If President Grant and Gov. Bullock, who have sworn to execute the laws of the land—nay more, who in part made them —will persist in shielding their par tisan friends by their shameless pardons, it may not bo matter of surprise if Judge Lynch’s posse takes now and then a share of the spoils. May God send us in His own good time, deliverance from both extremes. Hold them to their Contracts. Upon these words the Telegraph !j Messenger base the following jus! but rather iucomplete exhortation to the gcneiality of hirers living wilhin their parish—though equally pertinent to all other localities : “A citizen informs us that in one day during tho present week, he had not less than twelve applications for employment by freedmen from tho country. With out exception, they told him they had come into town to work on tho Pair Grounds, preferring a dollar a Jay and rations, to such wages as they were get ting, or any prospective share in tho crop of their employers. Wc trust neither our worthy Mayor or any private citizen will hire one of these runaways, unless he produces clean pa pers with respect to past obligations. The laws enforcing contracts cannot be too stringently executed, if we would preserve anything like organized field labor in tho country. Let these loafers be arrested UDder the vagrant act, and remanded bark to their employers.” Yes, “hold them to their contracts ” wo gay—and let there be two bandies to the jug fairly supported and evenly bal anced. But we would suggest as our belief, that the evil complaiued of, does not always attach solely to tho freedmeu, nor is the remedy exclusively depend ent upon the action of “our worthy May or or any private citizen.” llailroad Companies and Railroad Contractors do much to interfere with the integrity and steadiness of plantation and farm hands. Nor are such hasty, rushing, "speedily to be completed” contracts as Fair Grounds and their like, a whit behiud with their tempting baits! A dollar a day and rations furnished gratis —with the charms of liviug in a city to boot, make up a dish that Sambo does not re gard as very disreputable to partake of. It reminds him of that “1 mule and 40 acres” ,so much spoken of, and which the Scalawags and Carpet-baggers used in bogus bribes, for his vote—only he is not deceived now in those per diem wa ges offered over and above wliat fanners and planters can afford to give. “The tempter or the tempted, who sins most ?” The great cause for all these clashing and disorganizing elements in our labor system, is the want of a regular tariff of wages and a firm concert of action by all employers in support of its several and diversified rates. Those can alone be established by a general convention to fix and declare them—which, once done, wo doubt not a way would soon bo found to enforce all nocessary observance of their provisions. The general and or dinary class of hirers—tho farmers and planters especially, cannot compete with Railroads and other monopolies, who can pay almost any price for labor, and as surely make up the excess by raising freight prices and in other extra charges. Nor will either Mayor or citizens be able to squelch the faithlessness of freedmen, unless all the family of Employers pulls together. We must support the hus bandman at all hazards, if Railways or Fair Grounds expect to be of any profit themselves. Jefferson Davis. —The New York Commercial Advertiser, in alluding to the recent outrageous story published about Mr. Jefferson Davis, says : No sensible person credited tbe out rageous yarn. Mr. Davis’ moral charac ter is as much above reproach as was Ctcsar’s wife, and be sacrifices his digni ty in descending to notice such an ema nation from a Western editorial slum. The issssnrftafc Several newspapers have recently published an account of the mutual an gry speeches and violent personal as sault of Hill upon Yancey, which as ai led occurred iu the Confederate States’ Senate during one of its secret sessions. Asa general rule and matter of principle, we ate opposed to resusci tating such things and obtruding them tresh upon the speculating curiosity of a public that is ever ready to distort and maugle the purest actions arid the no blest characters. If any record of tbe past is entitled to the protection of the 'dead issue’ mantle, it strikes us that this little unpleasantness between the gen tlemen named, should have received tbe favor—especially as one of the party has beeu in his grave for many years. But as it has been fished up for some purpose or other, and made to assume a decided ly ex parte phase, we think it due to the dead as well as the living, that a full lifedike portraiture be furnished in aid of truth, justice and history, by some competent, knowing and mutual friend— one whose very name and personal affil iations would ‘nothing extenuate nor set down ought in malice.’ This course is additionally imperative because the re cently published resume of the collision fails to satisfy, in our bumble judgment, the full requirements of the friends ot either side : indeed, it is somewhat puz zling to decide in whose interest it was written ; for certainly tbe reputation hitherto mantained by both Yaucey and Hill's characters, has not received the dispassiouate meed to which we havo al ways regarded them as clearly entitled. A Nuisance. Not a single murder case has fallen under our notice recently, in which the plea of insanity is not urged with dis gusting pertinacity by the defense- It is at present the legal hobby which every jack-leg lawyer rides ; and unless some step is taken to prevent further mnl-practice in the courts, it will be ere long conclusively demonstrated that no person iu his right rniud cau commit an act that is in the least peculiar or ec centric. The courts, which seem to have beeu affected to some extent with the all-pre vailing epidemic, are weak enough to tolerate the nuisauce; and thds every murder that ever was or ever will be committed, cau he so misrepresented that there is great danger of the total abolition of one of the greatest privileges of civilized society—neck-trc sociables] It is to bo sincerely hoped that uo more of this plea-of-insanity foolishness will be brought up as a stench in the uostrils of the public. When a murderer has beeu clearly convicted by the evi dence, wc say, lot him or her hang by the neck until dead, whether insane or not. The world will be better off with out them in either case. What, wc ask will become of the law, if every criminal, for any offeuae what ever, is allowed to take advantage of his alleged insanity? Respect for law and order demands that no su:h pallia tion be admitted. Public security de mands, tbat tbe good work of neck stretebing go ou with even a renewed impetus, until some at least of the pests of society arc removed. There never was a time before when a free use of hemp was so ranch needed as now; and some steps must be taken to let this useful plant continue to sub serve the end for which it was designed by a kind providence. The desire of the Americans to be constantly meddling with the affairs of other people receives an additional illus tration in the new fillibustcriug expedi tion now preparing to leave Canada and New York for Cuba. The poor Cubans, even with the aid of the blood-thirsty Spaniards, have not been able to secure for themselves a sufficiently disordered state of affairs; so a band of out-laws, we may term them, must leave this country to assist this deluded people in cutting their own throats for tbe edifica tion of the Spanish ministry. These ir regular expeditions are never productive of any good to either party, being of little actual sctvice to tho Cubans, and sub serving the purpose of embittering tho minds of the Spanish authorities against the United States’ Government, which in no manner sanctions tbe disorderly conduct of these adventurers. Tbe indications are that a general In dian war is on tapis along the Western frontier. The Comanches, Arapaboes, Sioux, Oanges, and other inferior tribes are quite restless, and apparently bent upon mischief. The United States gov ernment is making preparations to defend the borderers from extermination. The editorial of Mr. Stephens that appears in the Atlanta Sun of the 28th, is a masterly and irrefutable argument against the validity of tho amendments to tho Constitution. How any tuan in his right mind can, after a careful peru sal of tbe terse and logical arguments advanced, still uphold the new depart ure, is incomprehensible. This in reality is nothing else hut the concentrated essence of Radicalism, sweetened with a little Democratic su gar to make it palatable to tho weak stomachs of those who are at heart tbe blackest Republicans,but nominally New Departure Democrats, iuwu a.i aii umpuiviu uuowi i 1 ? TitL - j feci tbat Bullock, to save himself from impeachment, will take anew departure and become a Democrat. The idea ia absurdly ridiculous tbat this child of the Devil, after his infamous career, will have the supreme impudence to attempt to join himself to the party that he has systematically defrauded out of its. rights, and that be has tried to stigma tise as a KU Klax Klan, living in a state of armed insurrection against the best government the world ever saw. Nothing is too low, too villainous, too too disgraceful and too wicked fbr this black-hearted blot upon the page of hu manity to attempt; but certainly he has not the Satanic assurance to writhe his loathsome form up to the feet of of the Democracy, and seek admission into tbe fold. We think he is too well trained by bis master, whose saying he seems to advocate: “ ’Tis better to reign iu hell than serve in Heaven.” That Same Old Tune. Already the swelling strains of “the first new bale of cotton and the first open bole’’—as localities have favored the earliest production ot the staple—are filling the newspapers, to be wafted by tbe wires to the various marts of the world! These phrases always sound om inously fatal in oar ears ; they are like the unwelcome whispers of the first case of yellow fever in some devoted city which, true or falso, are sure to inflict damage—and it is passing strange how the pride and vanity of men engaged in making cotton for their support, can be turned against their real interests, for the sake of s fleeting puff of eclat —for it is not presumable tbat the few dollars more obtained for it, could have been the cause of hurrying it into market. The big price paid is only by way of ointment to induce an early and general rush of the crop into speculators bands, that they may lay their plans to control its destiny after it is sufficiently ascer tained what the maximum yield will he. The "first bale” (so early brought for ward) is artfully assumed as the indica tion of a large supply, and the demand which is controlled by the consumer or tbe spinners of Europe, plays “fast and loose” in proportion to the ease with which the latter manipulate tbe trade. The producer is the swinging gander at whose neck all intermediate competi tors take their “pulls” by turns ; and it is astonishing why planters will furnish the very material tbat in the end break up their hopes. In years gone by, a sim ilar mania prevailed to show to a news paper man so many inches of the growing plant—then the first bloom —then tho first bole, and finally a whole stalk, enor mously fruited, as a sample of Mr. So and So’s largo fields ! Indeed many made it a point to have their acres interviewed by auy correspondent and the prospects, which were of course flattering, publish ed. Tbe mills of New England, Great Britain and the Continent, worked these ■‘pickings” to good account, and no matter what befell the poor planter af terwards, his number of bags were made to conform to these “reports”; big crops were assumed as inevitable, and i little prices paid accordingly. Yet the planters still continue to decorate their teams with the same jingling bells, and to haul to market tbe “first bale” as if their all depended upon such an achieve ment ! We differ with them in toto, and when we reflect that a few hundred pounds of cotton can be “forced” like many garden vegetables a few days or weeks iu advance of its common and more natural developments—we wonder how any pride can be really felt fora feat so liable to such unprofitable com petition. ! Mr. C. C. Bowen, the polygamist par doned by President Grant, has been re commended to emigrate with his numer ous wives to Utah, where he can law fully play husband to them all. The Salt Lake H'rald indignantly expresses the hope that he will 6tay away. It does not want any sneaking fellow like him round there, passing himself off as a sin gle man on unsuspecting spinsters. The Mormons, it says, make their matrimo nial arrangements openly and above board, and if they are married already, say so to the new objects of their affec tions.— N. Y. Sun. A New Vocalist. —Recently at the Plymoth Church, Brooklyn, after the evening service was over, about five hundred persons remained to hear Miss Abbott, a protege of the Brooklyn Gam aliel. Miss Abbott was brought from tho West by Miss Kellogg, and was re ported as having wonderful natural vo cal powers. She took her stand in front of the organ np stairs. The first selec tion was, "I know that my Redeemer livetb,”'and Miss Abbott astonished her auditors. After the performance, the entire audience burst into rapturous ap plause, which lasted several minutes. Miss Abbott went from Plymoth church leaning on Mr. Beecher’s arm. The Sun in for it.—We are inform ed that Hon. Charles O. Johnson, of Spaulding county, has sued the proprie tors of the Atlanta Sun in tho sum of $25,000, for defamation of character. [ True Georgian, It is a lucky circumstance for editors tbat they are not as sensitive about per sonal attacks upon their characters, as the less favored portion of mankind ; if they were, wouldn't tbe lawyers think them a blessing to the Jand ! An exchange touehingly pictures “the malevolent potato-bug sitting on a Western fence corner waiting for bosi new,” ' « «»«.* ■“ tu«- >Mf •-ifWl'it^iiWluia af a recent date, adopta with aome mod ification tba Darwinian theory, think ing that Mr. Darwin ia ahont oorrect in bia position that seme representatives of the human nee are hot a species of mon key. He giver a tradition to enpport his view, whieh ia as follem : “When tho Creator conceived tho idea of making woman out of Jhe rib of naan, and in taking it from his left side, there was wise iotention in the act. Firet, that abe was to be loved ; second, that' she was to be guarded from harm, hav ing been taken from under bis left arm, to be shielded in tbe hour of danger, and to be defended by bia strong right band; third, tbat abe was to be dependent up on and not independent of him. her true representative condition, as intended by tbe all wise Creator. ' When tbe rib was taken from Adam, so says tradition, tbe Creator laid it aside while he was cicatrizing tbe wound, when it was espied by a mischievous monkey who grabbed and started off with it np a tree; but being seen by an angel, be wag panned and caught by the tail, but as he would not let go the rib, the angel wruug off his tail, and caused the thiof to drop it. Both rib and tail were brought to the Creator, when be pro ceeded to make the woman from it,jnat as the trne woman is to-day—modest, confiding, loving, kind, gentle, depend ent and unambitious; satisfied ana re joicing in her peculiar sphere and du ties ; loving her homo, husband and children, and only ambitious to reign qneen of her husband’s heart. Tbe monkey's tail was ordered to be thrown over tbe garden fenoe, and being spied by the devil, who was and is over on tbe look out for evil doing, and who' bad been watobing the creation of wo man out of tbe rib, thought be would try his cunning band on the tail ; and sure enough be made a woman, very much like tbe one in the garden in per sonal appearance,but very unlike in point of mind and desires. Like her creator she is ambitious, daring, restless, pre sumptive, forward, hard to control, want ing to make stump speeches, go to Con gress, and vote, in particular j is very much like her derivstive sire, ever cut ting up fantastic tricks before the pub lic.” Sueli is said to be the trne undisputed tradition relative to the creation of “strong minded women.” It is a fact undenied to this day, tbat the baboon has a very poor apology for a tail, and has never told tbe secret of liib losing it. It appears very plausible that Mr. Darwiu conceived tbe first ideas of his celebrated theory, from a close scrutiny of the characters o i such women as Cady Stanton, Susan B. Anthony, Vic Wood hull and Tcnnie Clafiin. He was too pious a man to entertain so blasphemous an idea as aseribing such abortions to the hand of the Creator; and conse* quontly, to make science and Religion harmonize, he bad to conjure us some other method of accounting for the pres ence of these female nuisances amoDg us. Mr. Darwin is therefore no infidel, as has been slanderously asserted with re spect to him. He merely asserted that God was not the Author of Eve-’ll. Mrs. Harriet Beecher Stowe, through the medium of “Uncle Tom’s Cabin,” perhaps did more to ronse and exaspe rate the people of the North against the barbarous slaveholders, than any other single person. The picture of the suf ferings and tortures of the poor negroes in their more than iEvyptian bondage, was enough to curdle the blood in the heart of a statue; and instill into the minds of the holy Puritans tbe belief that in exterminating the Southern peo pie they verily were doing God service. While these sanctimonious Puritans were weeping tears of blood over tbe fancied wrongs of the negro, they closed their eyes to the foot tbat, tbe poorer classes of their own section, and of Eng land were really in a more pitiable con dition. Tbe factory operatives of New England in particular are to-day in a more deplorable and helpless Btate of bondage than the negroes ever were in tbe South. In England tbe condition of the serfs is such tbat some public measures have become necessary for their relief. The following is a part of the testimony sub mitted to the British Parliament by Lord Shaftsbory, in his effort to have the children employed in the English brick yards protected by an extension of the Factory Acts : “About 30,000 yoong persons, varying in age from three and a half to seven teen, are engaged in toil for fourteen and sixteen houts a day, carrying on their beads lumps of clay weighing 40 pounds from the clay heaps to the tables where tbe bricks are made. Lord Shafts bury mentioned, among other cases, a child eight years old who carried 43 lbs. weight of clay on his bead an average distance of fifteen miles daily, aud worked 73 boors a week. One of the inspectors of factories says tbat a child ten years old will be required to remove three and a half tons of clay a distance of 40 yards daily, traversing 14 miles in the course of bis or her task. Lord Shaftsbury described the poor creatures from personal observation as themselves almost transformed into lumps of clay, tottering about half naked under hardens, and compelled to eater places so hot and burning that he found it impossible to stay there. The physical results are necessarily bad, but the moral atmos phere of the brick fields is even more ap paling, men, women and children being brought down to a point of degradation and suffering like tbe beasts of tbe field.” Some clever fellow has invented anew kind es ink called “love-letter ink.” It is a sure preventive against all cases of breach of promise, as the ink fades away and leave? tbe sheet blank in about lour weeks after b*>B| written open, cost $600,000, As ascertained from all the record*, by diligent collation of L.

If Georgia establishes an Agricultural Collage next fall, so as to get our 300,000 ceres of Congress land, she hu no need fa build new College houses at Athens, or anywhere else; the vacant public buildings (and public land* too) at Mil ledgeville are all ready, and the sehool ean open in January. And this is true, too, of Dahlonega, where the U. S.Mint, a building about equal to the Governor’s house at Mitledgeville, has been lately, given by the United State* to the people of Dahlonega for an Agricultural School. The. law ,of Congress giving the land, (300.000 acres for Georgia) foi bids ex pressly, that any part of it shall be spent in building College houses. The State must build the houses. If the Agricul tural College should be located at Athens, new bouses, at great expense would have to be built, out of the State Treasury. The old Colleges at Athens would be no help, for they are already full, and bare ly sufficient for present uses of the Uni versity ; and Georgia has debts enough to pay for Opera House, and new State House, and new Governor's house in Atlanta. Let the College be at Mil ledgeville. BALDWIN. J. H. Christy, of Athens, Ga., was examined by the Ku Klux Committee. He testified in substance that be knew of no Ku Klux organization in his dis trict, or any part of the State. In an swer to the question as to what facili ties be had of knowing anything about it, he stated that he had been twice elec ted to Congress from that district, and usually attended the courts of Western Circuit, as well as a portion of those of the Northern Circuit; and in-response to a question, he said he believed that he was personally acquainted with the people generally. No more crime was oommitted now than before the war in bis section of the State. He admitted there bad been some violations of law by disguised parties for the purpose of punishing persons for living togethor in adultery, fornication, theft, etc., and sta ted that it was the general opinion in the community that the people took the law into their own hands, because so many criminals had been pardoned. Another circumstances which gave rise to the exaggerations in reference to the so-called Ku Klux wa9 the fact that mischievous young men, for purposes of amusement sometimes wrapped them selves in sheets aud scared the supersti tious negroes, some of whom affected to believe they were the ghosts of deceas ed Coufederate soldiers. These, ne groes had disguised themselves aud whipped a white man in Clarke county, and there bad been but little said about it. Another party of disguised Degrees had tried to murder a white man. Han cock had been convicted and sentenced, but subsequently pardouded by the Gov ernor. The witness expressed the opin ion that Alf, Richardson had not been attacked on political grounds, and that no negroes had been intimidated from voting the Republican ticket, but some had probably been prevented by threats from voting the Democratic ticket. The whole tenor of his testi mony was to the effect that he believed there was no regular organization in Georgia for the purpose of violating the laws. The examination was long and tedious, but the above are the leading fasts elicited. The Famine and the Cholera in Per » eia. —The latest news from the East is of the most distressing character. Per sia is suffering from that terrible visitas tion, the cholera. After months of fam ine, during which time tho sufferings of the unfortunate Persians have been fear ful in the extreme, the cholera now ap pears to complete their measnre of mis ery. Dreadful, indeed, as were the suf ferings of the people with the one, they will be increased tenfold now with the cholera extending and laying waste whole districts. Since ISI7 we have had nothing so dreadful to record.

THE UNDESIGNED, having resumed the manatactnre of the above Gin propose to make it what it wa» before the war—“ The favorite of the South.” Our work -stands upon its merits, and we think this sufficient guarantee. We have secured the services of some of the beet mechanical talent in the Northern shops, iu addition to some of the best workmen from tbe hop of the late Samnel Griswold. In calling the attention of planters to onr Cotton Gins, we desire that they should notice the improvements that we offer which are substantial as follows : A PORTABLE ROLL BOX For obtaining any inclination of the Gin Rib or Grate is used, the object of which is to improve in the quantity ginned, or lessen the'quantity and improve the quality of lint. Also to gin damp or wet cotton; to alter the picking or separating the lint from the seed—either to take more lint off, or less lint from the seed, as circumstances require. We use both the common Roll Box and a Swinging Front. The latter is arranged to let ont all the seeds and hulls in a moment, and is very easily managed. THE GIN BRUSH We make, cennot be excelled by any hair brush used. The bristles are all drawn by a cord and the timber is all selected from the best lumber, well seasoned; and every brush is made perfect fire and rat proof. CYLINDER AND BRUSH BOXES Are both oscilliating and plain. Can furnish either, as may be ordered. We line them with the best babbit metal. GIN SAWS. . We make all the saws that we use from the best English Cast Steel, and of any size that may be desired. We employ, to superintend and muuufacture our saws, one of the best saw makers in the Sonth; ana onr machinery for the manufacture of Gin-Saws cannot be excelled COTTON-SEED CRUSHING MILL, We are aheonly successful manufacturers of this important and useful invention, the Cot ton Gin, with the Cotton Seed Crushing Mill attached. It will hardly be necessary hereto allude to the immense saving and economical use of the crushed cottonseed, as a ma nure. We received a gold medal as a premium, from the Fair of the Cotton Planter’s Convention, held in Macon, Ga., 1860 for the best Cotton Seed Crushers attached to the Gin Stand, to crush the seed as fast as it escapes from the Roll. We refer to some of the many certificates that we have on the subject. TRIAL OF GINS. We keep constantly on hand seed cotton, and every Gin is tried before it leaves the shop, old or new ones. REPAIRING OLD GINS. We have a complete assortment of the very best Cotton Gin Machinery in the country, and make repairing of old Gins a spectality. Planters will do well to send in their old Gins, and have them made as good as new, at a much less cost than anew Gin can be bought for Send on your orders aud old Gins earlv. We are also authorized by Messrs. Findlay’s Sons to receive orders for Findlay <fc Craig’s Screw Cotton Press, and Craig's Patent Portable Horse Power, and Casting generally.
