Yews -remarks:
. “That he is a man of genius and
some brilliancy, all will admit; and
chat he is a confounded good fellow,

He is a “ confounded” good fellow,-
.list's a fact. He has liis good points,
but they are so confounded with bad

*We confess to ignorance. We sat down
n day or two since,, and. scratched our
.editorial head a solid half hour ovei
matter, and the only condiuaon wt-
could arrive at, was that 'Ben hiinscli
.doesn’t know where he.stands.. Some
.claim that he is a Radical, and others
that he is a Democrat Let him speak
for himself.
On. the 27th of December; Governor
.Bullock gave a banquet to Hon. Colum
bus Delano, Secretary of the Interior)
.at the Kimball House, in Atlanta;—^
-present, the Governor, Delano, Ben
.Hill, Joe Brown, Bluster Fodgettf and
.a mnnber of other gentlemen who get
their Jiving by- “ turning an honest
penny.” Iu response to a toast to
“Georgia,” Mr. Hill made a speech,
and among other things, said, “Some
people say that I have come to be a
JRadicaJ. . That is a terrible mistake.
’That can never be,[never, never.-Souse
people say that I am not a good Dem-
.ocrat. If I ever \v:is a Democrat,.I
.can honestly say that I did hot go to
he. I was not a Democrat certainly
from choice,- and if a Democrat' at a«
I was a Democrat- from necessity. ”
Neither fish,- flesh, fowl por devil.—
What a tremendous nothing he rnnst
'be. “Am I, or am I not; if I -am hot,
who am I?” But he went on to say:.
•“ People tidk about my having
changed. I have not changed a single

_not one; but times change; eireum-
.stances chimge; issues change; events,
.change; interests change jrights change;
necessities change, and. we should
adapt ourselves to them if we expect
jto prosper. ”
Happy thought! Noble idea! All
things change, save the immutable
Ben himself. To what shall we liken jj [
fhee, O Benjamin, ahd wherennto shall
■wo compare thee? To What but. the
^mountains, whose everlasting strength
defies the storms, and mutations of
•time.. Like Knnchingiuga, .loftiest of
the Himmalayaa, he looks down with
indifference on the petty agitations of
•the world on which his feet rest; and
;like Kunchinginga, when-he made that-
