ernnan ¥pm(il. NEWNAN, GEORGIA. Friday Morning, June 5, 18B8. A mnn named Smith, It is reported, was tarred and feathered in Detnopolis last week for having married n negro woman. . fff*Heavy earthquake shocks were felt in California and Nevada on May 29th. The Hon. Anson Burlingame, formerly U. S. Minister to China, but now Envoy Extraordi nary and Minister Plenipotentiary from China to the eleven great powers of Christendom, with bis suit has arrived in New York. Among those composing the Embassy are two high Chinese officials of the second grade. The Embassy will first make known its object to ihe U. S. Government. fjffTeterson’s Magazine for July is before.us. This number, we see, begins the fifty-fourth volume. Like old wine, “ Peterson ” gets bet ter and better. It has now been published for twenty-seven years, and its unrivalled circula tion proves it tho most popular of the ladies magazines. The present issue is one of the best we have ever seen. A splendid steel en graving, “ Undine and the Knight,” leads off; then follows a mammoth colored steel fashion plate, with five full length figures; and then we have numerous wood-cuts of new bonnets, capes, bodies, &c., &c., besides a score of pat terns for the work-table; among them two printed rn colors. The literary contents, as usual, arc excellent. Mrs. Ann S. Stephens continues her interesting novelet, “ The Bride of the Prairie ;” while ‘‘ The Tragedy of Fau quier” deepens in mystery and power. Frank Lee Benedict has a charming story. But, in point of fact, all the tales are superior. Now is a good time to subscribe for “ Peterson.”— Terms, $2 a year. To clubs, three copies for $4 50, or five for $8, and iu this latter case, an extra copy for a premium. Address Charles J. Peterson, 800 Chestnut St., Philadelphia. Sustain Home Enterprise. The great fault, practiced in the past and at the present, by the Southern people is the failure to patronize home enterprises. No en couragement has been extended to home tal ents, while the silly stories of Northern and European novelists have been eagerly read and flatteringly paid for. The Southern mechanics and manufacturers have have, and are now forced to seek patrons in other lands than their own, while foreign or Northern adventurers, reared in the cradle of fanaticism, are nour ished by Southern money. While we do not insist upon the policy of total refusal to recog nizing tho merit of other climes, still wc do say that it is suicidal to patronize it to the ruin of that which, though native, is equally de serving. Southern Insurance companies, un doubtedly solvent and reliable, are overlooked, and policies sought and paid for in Northern companies. The money expended in the one would be retained in our midst, while that sent to New York, Boston and other distant cities, never returns. Why pursue this course ? Is the greenbacks of the latter companies better than those of the former? Do those who thus act prefer witnessing Northern to Southern prosperity ? Does the news of the rapid accu mulation of wealth by Northern men afford them more pleasure than the sight of a neigh bor’s rise? Surely not. All of the wrong doings and short-sighted actions of our people are attributable to habit, and the absence of reflection. Their fathers did these things, and of course their sons follow their examples without one moment’s thought of the evil or impropriety of drifting on in the same old channels. The long and short of the matter is this—if we of the South ever desire, expect or intend to become prosperous, we must keep our money at home. Millions made and millions sent away leave us poor, while thousands made and thousands retained will make us rich. Grant’s Letter of Acceptance. Democratic Interests. The enemies of free government are very busy in their efforts to select a Presidential candidate for the Democracy. From their writings one would be forced to the conclusion that these active gentlemen were simply white spies in the Radical camp, and were anxious to inform their friends, the Democrats, of the strong points of certain leading politicians in our ranks. Such deduct, to say the least of it, has an appearance of impudence, especially when these busy-bodies have not been called upon to give advice. It is a prevailing opinion among the members of the party of the Con stitution that we are amply able to select our candidates, whose principles satisfy us and whom we intend to elect. Thus believing, and intending to practice upon that belief, all the labor of these advisers will be lost, and they would render themselves less ridiculous by selecting different persons into whose ears to whisper their words of wisdom. Horace Greely has manifested an astonishing amount of interest in Mr. Pendleton’s nomi nation. While we admit Mr. Pendleton’s po litical soundness and ability as a statesman, yet we do not recognize Greely’s right to speak on this subject. Others again cannot under stand why the Democracy will not nominate Judge Chase. The Chief Justice, they say, is an able man—was in the past a consistent Republican—kissed, at one time all the negro bailies in New Orleans, find performed a thou sand other good deeds according to Radical ethics. Still Mr. Chase will not support Grant, and, therefore, ought to be nominated by the Democracy. We wili state, for the inform ition of the individuals so exercised for the Chief Justice, that if the Democrats were to adopt the rule of nominating every man who does not intend voting for Grant, they would be compelled to nominate an overwhelming ma jority of the American people. Moreover, the officious intermeddling of these partizans of despotism will not lose or gain Gen. Hancock, Mr. Pendleton or any other candidate a single vote in the nominating convention. So much for this branch of the subject. The whole stock in trade of the Radicals consists in highly colored and fabricated stories of outrages perpetrated by the Southern whites upon so called Southern loyalists. In nothing else do they so much rejoice as in the recital of distorted and Munchausen stories of the cruelty of “rebels” and the heroic sufferings of the “ patieut African.” Deprive this p irty of these bloody accounts for one single month, and it would die as naturally as a fish does out of water. Now the burthen of every true man’s prayer should be the death of American Radi calism. To secure its rapid decline in strength we must exercise an unusual amount of caution and prudence during the coming campaign.— While it is true we cannot do anything, say anything, think anything, w'sh anything, or pray anything that will totally silence their lying tongues, still we can force them to resort to lies, and only lies—yea, lies so black and palpable that the God of Justice will finally interfere in behalf of truth. Grant is their candidate, and Grant is, in fact, the fountain of all military authority ; and so anxious is he for his election to the office of President that he will grind us, oppress us and vex us with his soldiers in every conceivable way to pro voke this chivalric people, to the commission of imprudent deeds, out of which he and his minions hope to manufacture sufficient capital to secure his election. On this point let us be watchful; for it will be infinitely better to en dure the wrongs of tyranny for a season than indefinitely. The more we are wronged and outraged the closer and more determinedly let us cling to our principles and candidate. By defeating Grant we will inaugurate better times, and the despotic and illegal acts of the now rulers can and will be investigated and the perpetrators justly and righteously punished. For the accomplishment of this great good we should he willing to undergo anything and everything short of the loss of honor and character.

In all kinds of business this is rejected, and the laborer goes unpaid. The teacher, however, is the one for whom I would say a word. In the first place, is not the teacher essential to the good of the community? Is he not worthy of his hire? If he is, then he should be supported by willing and generous patrons. Like all other men he must be fed and clothed, and if he is a teacher his whole time must be devoted to the school. Thus he has no other means of sustenance than the support of his patrons. Still we see men who make no calcu lation whatever to remunerate the mau who labors hard from day to day to improve the minds of his children. He is perfectly deaf to the calls of necessity which may be made in behalf of the teacher, and considers his little claims upon him as worth but little, and do not merit his attention. Whit shall we think of such a man ? And at the close of the term, instead of meeting at the Academy for the purpose of settling for what their children have received, they have to be looked up and then bring up the frightful complaint that my account is too much, or [ am dissatisfied in some way. Why Grant Dislikes the Jews. To the Editor of the Times: The question is often asked, “What has Gen. Grant against the Jews ?■’ or, “Why did he issue that notorious proclamation driving all A Card from Mr. Weed. Jews, and other vagabonds, outside liis en-f campment?” And, not having seen published any satisfactory answer. I will give you what was purchased.

Gen.

Every reasoning and intelligent per son says yes. Then to the point. There ar g men who cannot pay for the education of their children, or give anything to the support ot the Gospel, who can and do liberally contribute to sustain these demoralizing institutions.— Parents, look well to the interest of your charge, and leave no grounds for them to say in after years, father did so and so, and I will do as he did. Teachers will take other things besides mon ey, if you have no money. Any man could spare a little in the jyay of provisons, aud it would be thankfully received. Anything that can be eaten or worn will be long remembered by your teacher, and when you harvest your wheat carry him a few bushels. He, too, loves flour doings—his wife and little ones like biscuit as well as you and yours. Then, kind friend, if you have not settled with that man who h-us done so much for your child’s interest, anil goes to school through rain and snow, trem bling as he walks from the effects of teaching and bad health. Let not a week pass, but look him up, whisper something iu his ear that will make glad that now- sad heart, for he loves your children and not your money, or he wou uot teach. Nu.nc. opposed by fewer tiem three-and-.-i-ha.lt times us numbers—in several of them by a yet great er excess.” If it be said that Grant hid dis advantages of ground and position to encoun ter in advancing through an enemy's country, til3 same is equally true of Scott, who never theless with greatly inferior numbers advanced rapidly from triumph to triumph, while Graut, operating with superior numbers against a nearly exhausted foe, required a whole year to capture Richmond, v^fiich finally succumbed to exhaustion rather than to military genius. man by the name of Rosenthal, wiio was d Jew, and who was in the pork trade, and, of course, would be glad to keep the trade in hi own bands; so he determined, if possible, not to give Grant much of a chance, and the first two or three loads of pork were bid up far be yond its real value, and finally sold to Grant. By this time Rosenthal discovered that Grant „ i knew no difference between the price of light and heavy hogs, when, in reality, there is a dif ference of at least one dollar per hundred— heavy hogs being worth one dollar the most —the hogs already purchased by Grant being light, and be having paid the full price for heavy hogs. So Rosenthal goes to his ware house, selects out all his light hogs, enough to load two or three wagons, gets some farmers who had wood-racks on their wagons to load on ihe hogs, drive out of town by another, street, and come in on the main road to th corner where they were buying. Roseutha' e meets them there by another street, and com. inenceil bidding against Grant, and, after bid ding the pork up to the full value of heavy pork, it was sold to Grant. But the joke, or “sell,” being too good to keen.it was n-*t huif an hour before everybody Relief. — By reference to the Washington telegram of June 3d, published elsewHere, it will be seen that the Senate Judiciary Commit- j ueurly was splitting with laughter to see how tee proposes to-"knock all the vitality out of the relief clause of the new Constitution (?) of Georgia. We have from the beginning expect ed such action on the part of Congress, and so warned our readers. It any man Las suffered himself to be deceived we are sorry for him.— Even though Congress should retain rt, stiil it would have to run tho gauntlet of the Courts. The great Hiram Ulysses Simpson Grant has written his letter accepting the nomination by the Radical party for President—and what a letter. So thoroughly skilled in Radicalism is Grant that he seeks to deceive the reader by declaring that “it seems proper that some statement of views beyond the mere acceptance of the nomination should be expressed.” This declaration is a naked, bald deception, for vain is the search for those expressed views. The question of suffrage and the condition of the Southern States, detailed mode and manner of reducing the currency to a healthy standard, • and the justice or injustice of paying a certain class of United States bonds-in greenbacks, are passed over in silence. In truth, every vital issue of the canvass, in which the voters have a direct and pressing interest, are untouched. After a pernsal of the letter the reader feels that the document is a failure, a deceptive, in tentional failure to discuss with manliness and vigor those questions agitating the American mind. ToTaw resolutions adopted by the Chicago Convention, Grant adds one plank, and only one plank; and that one is desper ately rotten, taken in connection with Radical practices. Hear him: “A purely administra tive officer (the President) should always be left free to execute the will of tue people. I have always respected that will and always shall.” A beautiful doctrine coming from a Radical. Respect the will of the people, in deed! When did Grant or his party respect the will of the Southern whites ? When they placed them under military rule, deprived them of the benefit of the writ of habeas corpus, exiled in manacles many of the good and true to Dry Tortugas, that parched hill in the Mex ican Gulf, by removing and imprisoning trust ed officials, and the commission of other acts of devilish oppression? Ah! how he jokes.— Respect the will of the people! When? Where? Why to-day despoiled, partitioned, prostrate Poland feels the weight of the despotism of European Sovereigns not so severely as do we of the South that which Radicalism inaugura ted and Grant sanctioned. But we apprehend Grant meant to say he respooted the will of the people, that is the Radicals, Well, we believe he does respect their will, and will respect it regardless of the provisions of the Constitution. The doctrine that the Federal Executive is bound to execute tho bpReste pf party at the sacrifice of the Constitution is monstrous, and merits the re- bpke and condemnation of patriots. This is *11 Giant hag tossy, andnow we invite after) tlon to hit Uttar. • Now and Then.—“I am a Democrat, every man in my regiment is a Democrat, and when I shall be convinced that this war has for its object any other than what I have mentioned, or the government designs using its soldiers to execute the purposes of the abolitionists, I pledge you my honor as a soldier that I will carry my sword to the other side, and cast my lot with that people.—Col.

Later.—This bill has been returned to the House for concurrence in Drake's amendment. From the New York World. Tiie Hepnblican Candidate for President. If a backwoodsman should insist on using an axe to cut his crop of grain, instead of a sickle, because the axe had rendered good service in felling tfie forest that stood upon the same ground the preceding year, no one would be apt to think well ot his judgment- in the selection of a utensil. As we are not to have a war, there is less fitness in the selec tion of a general, than of a statesman, as a candidate for President. Gen. Grant has been nominated solely in consequence of his mili tary reputation. Waiving, for the present, the fundamental objection that the instrument is not adapted to the proposed use, and that the Presidency, during the next term, will afford no scope for the exertion of military talents, we challenge inquiry into the grounds of Gen, Grant’s fame as a soldier. We suppose none of his friends will seriously maintain that he is entitled to be called a great general mere ly because he has commanded great armies’ much less because he has exposed and lost in battle great multitudes of men. His reputa tion rests upon the fact that all his campaigns have been successful. But success against such adversaries as Pillow or Pemberton in the West is no very signal proof of abilities, unless they commanded greater forces; which they did not. Gen. Lee was a more worthy antagonist; but Gen. Lee was not conquered by fighting him, but by exhausting bis resour ces. He stood on the defensive for nearly a year after Grant assumed command in the East, although the Confederacy was e' en then, Gov. Brown in German.—The Anzeiger des Wes tens, a German paper of St. Louis, thus j, speaks of Gov. Brown and his sorghum-sop oration at Chicago: “The third speaker of the day was the no torious ex-rebel Governor Brown, of Georgia. It was his province to show how, by one leap, a ferocious rebel can jump into the csynp of the Radicals, and be received by them as a brother. The representative of the Radical and derna gogic phraseology, the rigid Puritan, who ap peals to the god of the Radicals, aud the Rebel of yesterday, who to-day becomes the ally of Radical despotism, are the natural complement of each other. They are a trio representing the different shades of Radicalism to perfection. the Jew bad sold the Galena pork buyer; which so disgusted Grant that he went home that uight, and was never seen in Bellevue after. And that transaction so embittered him against the old tr-bes of Israel that I doubt whether it could now be reconciled. And this is undoubt edly the whole cause of the expulsion of Jews from his camp.— Chicago Times. Grant’s.Lettar of Acceptance. Joseph Brown Abroad.—The infa my which attaches to Joseph Brown in Georgia, follows him wherever he goes.— A few days since, says the Columbus Sun, we copied a piece from a Chicago journal annnouncing him as an object of ‘‘mingled scorn and contempt,” even in that modern Sodom. We bow take pleasure in pre senting to our readers the following strik ing and faithful pen photograph of him, taken from a late number of the Louis ville Courier. That journal says : He is an illustrious specimen of that unprincipled class of white meD in the South, who, for the basest purposes and for personal aggrandizement, united with the carpet-baggers who poured down from the North to get the control of the negro element, and ride upon it into power.— Cold, selfish, unscrupulous, and utterly regardless of every interest not personal to himself, he has pursued his shameless course for the past three years, until he finds himself in a National Convention ot Washington, May 29, 1868. Gen. Joseph R Hawley, President Na tional Lilian Republican Convention: In formally accept'ng the nomination of the National Union Republican Con vention of the 21st of May, it seems pro- ’ { per that some statement of views beyond the mere acceptance of the nomination, should he expressed. The proceedings of the Convention was marked with wis dom, moderation and patriotism, and I believe express the feelings of the great mass of those who sustained the country through its recent trials. I endorse their resolutions. If elected to the office of President of the United States, it will be my endeavor to administer all the laws in good faith, with economy, and with a view of giving peace, quiet and protec tion everywhere. At times like the pre sent it is impossible, or at least eminent ly improper to lay down a policy to be ad hered to, right or wrong. Though an ad- ministratration of four years new political issues not foreseen are constantly arising, the view of the public on old ones are constantly'changing, and a purely admin istrative officer should always be left free to execute the will of the people. I have always respected that will, and always shall. Peace and universal prosperity, its sequence with economy of administration, will lighten the burden of taxation, while it constantly reduces tho national deht. Let us have peace.

The Postmaster General was furnished with a copy of Senator Pomeroy’s letter (copied from the original in his possession), and Leggett received a postal agency. Some few weeks ago Leggett appears before Col. Cooper with a letter from Senator Pomeroy saying that he would carry out, in good faith, any “arrangements” made with Mr. Gay lord, who is Pomeroy’s brother in-law; where-upon Leggett and Gaylord under take, for money, to obtain the votes of Senators Pomeroy, Nye and Tipton. I did not believe that Senators Nye and Tipton had authorized this “arrangement,” nor did I believe that either of them would vote against the conviction ot the President. But I did and do believe that Senator Pomeroy baited the hooks with which his Iriend Leggert and his brother-in-law Gaylord fished. Whether they caught anything or not I am unable to say.
