Yourestei me-1 favor of the .twentieth instant to baud. In and _ with much interest your tint of the inter -view with Governor Smith; I have no ac quaintance with the Governor; in tact I do not remember ever having seen or met him, nevertheless he is at the head of a great State--the state in which I we boi a and reand and l lea r n that HE IS TO THE “MANNER DORN,” lienee I feel more certain that he will re gard the motto of our great Stid", and will act ill ill's matter with 'Wisdom, Justice and Moderation.” If lam not guilty of the offenses charged agabist in-. I am’ satisfied that neither Governor Smith or any other honest citizen of the State would desire me punished, or mv securities put to trouble and expense, it reallv seems to me that all that Georg a should desire is that the Majesty of be. laws lie vindicated, and that those who violate them be punished. It is ehargi >i 1 bi.t 1 failed to appear at. court, which I was under bond to do, consequently the bond is forfeited and my sureties liable. Let us examine into tljjs matter. ti tiue that I had given a bond to the Gov ernor of Georgia and his successors in office for my appearance, but notvey long after, to wit, on the 9th day or Jan uary, 1872, I RECEIVED AND ACCEPTED A PARDON from the then Governor of Georgia, to which the great seal of the State was at tached. Inataid pardon the Governor savs : “And 1 hereby order that the said Foster Blodgett be discharged from any and all arrests, and from the obligations of all bonds given by him for bis appear ance at any court in this State. Ac. Not being very well versed in the law my self, I appealed to lawyers in whom I had confidence, two of which bad been fit the very head of the highest court in Geor gia’. They, as well as many others, as sured me that the pardon was legal and valid, and fully relieved both myself and securities ; that .here was no necessity for my personal appearance at court, as the pardon would be plead by my at torney, and that if I desired could leave the State with impunity. The Hon. B. H. Hill, who is no mean authority as a lawyer iu Georgia, reiterated the same, and* in a letter from him now in my pos session, he says ; “Governor Smith is of my opinion, and believes your pardon good and valid.” And the Hon. Mr. Tweedy, in a letter to roe just after an in terview with the Govc-rnc-r, says; “Gov. _ ' i Smii h lequests me to say to you that your pardon ; s legal and v; ! 'd.’’ Now, a.- ; ter these assn .iitces bom ihe Governor of 1 the Slave, from two of the former Chief Justices of Ihe Sup-eme Court, from such lawyers ns B. 11. Hill, Gartreri, Stephens and fuHv a hundred others,can it tie hchl in equit vor justice that the obligation was viola ed ; did 1 not believe as and and nioe-teuthr of the legal minds of Georg hi ' that the paidou was good, and theu-lore i the ne ossa v of mv appearing no longer I e-risled ? | The fi tt. intimation we get that the j.a dou is not good is from the diH-ission of Judge Hopkins, rendered only a short | time since. This derision is not final, | ami me, vbe reversed by the Supreme j Court ; but lirtVee that final decision is | hoi.loir.l, I propose to Art’MAH AND STAND M V TRIAL | before the Courts, and thereby protect i (hose who are on the bon h ’ -in t-heie i be anv objivi ,on to this; and will not the i majesty of the laws of Georgia be suffi j l ienlly vindicated by tins course? Ii i seems to me that it is not the money ot ! mv sureties that the great State of Ueor ! gia wants, but the person of the party I charged with offense. Ilgsho lias that, I her dignity, her sovereignty cud her | honor should be satisfied. Take another v.ew if the case. The bond given by myself and securities was n eont)a.et or’onli ■ ition entered into be tween us and the thee Governor of Geor gia and bis successors in ofiiee. It the then Governor or one of his successors in offi -e bv public Executive order, under the great s, a! of the .State, relcived us from this'obligation, is it right, equitable or just, to hold us now rigidly to its on fo-cement ? If we have not, literally complied with the obligation, is it not the fault (if the then Governor ei Geor ;da, or .me of his so -eessor* ill office ; and forsooth, should a great State like Geor g'-i pre-os her eit''/.-us for the fulfillment of iiu obligation that, had, by order of her chief ExeeU’'-ve, been SET ASIDE AND ANNULLED. bet me a-k ii all candor and sincerity, will the State es G-orgla take adv.ullage of my -df and »ureties for placing eonfi il.-.i-e in a j-aper is-.u -1 by .authority of h.-r Gove-nor, eoiint, is'gued by her .See tachedtk -tori cannot and will net believe it. The Governor being the Exe-tH -vo of the Stale.should tan-1 i- part ial 1-el we -n the State and her lit’zeus. He should see that, justice is done both, nti-1 and n-e --essary should not 1- o.tatelo use his ;>r - rogative to effect ties. He oteupc s a ve y -1 fferc-utjposition from those State and Court officers who are pressing tins matter. They an-most atixiotvi to have this b( rid l'ort’eited and have the money p.dd into their hands for division. rv WILL “I'IST MON r.YIN TIIKIIt PintSß,” but thank 11- -ven the Governor is not ho nffei-ted, and I beli -vt- alter (lie second si,! or thougbl he will see his duty in Ill's p.a tier, ami use his power an 1 influence for the i : ght, and si e that justice is done <o me and my securities as well as to the Elate of Geo!gia. This is all we ask, and under the circumstances I feel sure that, t lie verdict of nine-tenths of the peopled' Georgia would be that the -as- s against Blodgett should be tried ; if lie be found guilty let. him suffer the punishment, if Io- be found iiimw, lit h t, I,: in go free; lmt. do not make 1, s Keruntics sufb-r oil a mce technicality, more is pi ■.■'ally when ihe money which maybe Inlo-ti Iron) them would not he I- mril-ia! to Cue Ctale, but only to a few offi*era who now. njoy good Hilaries, and I Ida ve such will lie t lie opinion of Governor Smith. J am willing and ready lord urn toGeor giaaud either to give bond for my appenr an- e at court or go to jail, and there r--- main t' 11 the charges against incur- d-s --pos -1 of by due course of law, prov ded my bondsmen are relieved. I know I still have political and a!-o per sonal enemies in Georgia, but 1 be lieve most of them are now will ing and would be pleased to have j ust ire done me. I should also have many friends, for I have made many sacrifices fob them. I also feel that F have done the State some service, ns could be testifi- -1 by lb thousands of her citizens who are no enjoying ’he benefit of the Ilomesb- and Aet, as well as by many widows and or phans who are now relieved from suffer ing and want in eons-quenee of my ac tion in making the wife competent, to hold property in her own right free from the debts and contracts of her husband. This can lie seen by referring to th- pro ceed ngs of the Constitutional Conven tion. But enough of this. All I want’s justice, and that the Governor of Geor gia will do unto me and mv sureties as he would under like circumstances have others do unto him. 'Mrs is all T ask. and this I have a reasonable right to ex pect. In conclusion, I wlll say in the lan guage of Cardinal Wolsey, “Had I served na God with half the zeal I s-rv-d Gov. Bullock, my friends and the State of Georgia, He would not in mine age have left me naked to mine enemies.” Foster Blodgett. - A ren T i whose.-tnoi-n'ng dram had ' . n | too much for him, in saddling h's horse, | got lt<> saddle wrong end foremost.— j Just as he was about to mount, a neigh j bor came up and called his attention to | the mistake.

QUITMAN, GA., THURSDAY, OCTOBE I 9, 1873. | I'lie A<i vein I! res of u Dr-ssittg < l-xv » [ A lady was anxious to make her lius [ band u present on the oeeason of his birthday, and it happening to fall m the winter, she thought a dressing-gown would be a most, useful acquisition to his domestic comfort she w- lit and purchased a, fine Persian pat-ern, well wadded. Not remembering the exact height of Iter hus band, she thou lit it best to purchase it rather too long than too short, to make sure of iis usefulness. The day was wet; the husband returned iu the afternoon, and she presented him with the new arti i chi of comfort; and lie fancied it, indeed, a great article of comfort after he had put oft bis wet garments. But it was about I teii inches (oolong. “Oh, never mind,” j said tlie affectionate wife; “1 can easily shorten it to suit you.” They had a par- I ty in th -ei uing, and were very merry; ; and every one ml aired the beautiful 1 drcssuig-govni.

But. their demin (.'•ftt ons were wisely aimed at the schemes of adroit swindlers on the one band cn-I the spirit of rash speculation on the ot’„- l cr, which have borne their natural fruit in the crisis. i The New Orleans Picayune says : Not 'ong ago a country store, in close porX imi'y to the eity, had one or two boxes of torpedoes, that are about the size of a wren’s egg, left over from its holiday stock, in rearranging the shelves one of the little boxes was opened and all its eon louts given away, except one single torpedo, which, resembling a “bird's egg” candy as the colored folks call them, was h’i't oil the counter.

The Peruvian Si/rup, a Protect ed Solution < f the Proto.ride of Iron, is so combined as to haeo the character of an aliment, as easily digested and assimilated l irith the blood as the simplest food. It increases the quantity of Nature’s thru Vitalizing Agent, Iron in the. blood, and cures “a thousand ills,” simply l/g Toning up, /nvigorating anil Vitalizing the. System. The en riched and vitalized blood per meates every part of the body, repairing damages and waste, searching out morbid, secre tions, and h aving nothing for disease to feed upon. This is the secret,'of the won derful success of this remedy in curing Dyspepsia, Liver Com plaint, Dropsy, Chronic Diar rhoea, Rolls, Nervous Affections, Chills anti Fevers, Humors, Loss of Constitutional Vigor, Diseases of the Kidneys and Bladder, Female Complaints, and alt diseases originating in a bad state of the blood, or ac companieil by debility or a lout state of the system. Being free from Alcohol, in any form, its energizing effects are not fol lowed by corresponding reac tion, but are permanent, infu sing strength, vigor, and neat life into all parts of the system, and building up an Iron Con stitution. Thousands hare been changed by the use of this remedy, front weak, sickly, suffering crea tures, to strong, healthy, amt happy men and women; anil in rat ids cannot reasonably hes itate, to give it a trial.
