AUerman’H Last Slander.
The Atlanta Slander-Mill publishes
a correspondence between a number of
carpet bag Congressmen, beaded by
that saintly personage, Parson Brown
low, and ex-Attorney General Akerman,
in which the former attempts to mollify
the wounded feelings of the discarded
minion of Radical despotism by ex
pressions of sympathy and confidence
in his ‘sacred judgment and wisely
directed zeal in behalf of the liberties
and scrutiny of the citjzens of the States
which we (they) represent.” This
testimonial, which is evidently designed
to assuage the chagrin and mortification
with which the modern Jonathan Wild
retires from the position from which
he was virtually kicked, affords him an
opportunity to put forth one more vile
and heartless slander of the people
whom he so cruelly persecuted. In
his reply, after expressing his gratitude
for the approval of his official conduct,
Akerman, alluding to the Southern
States, says:
“In the conflict which rages there be
tween the friends and the foes of the
Government of the United States—be
tween those who maintain and those
who resist the principle that prevailed
in the late war— many of our adversa
ries have entered into organizations
more thorougly depraved than any that
have ever before appeared in American
politics. The objects are, substantially,
10 deprive tho laborer of his wages, the
voter of tis ballot, and the freeman of
his liberty, and the means include
rapine, torture, and murder. Their
work, for the most part, is done in
disguise —the characteristic apparel of
cowardice. If the law of the State pre
tends to make inquisition, perjury is
often at hand to furnish pretext for
clearing the guilty.
In somo places these organizations,
mastering public sentiment and paraly
zing (ho local law, have risen to the
character of systematic rebellions, differ
ing from other rebellions chiefly in the
precautions taken by the dastardly
participants to screen themselves from
personal responsibility for their acts.”
A viler slander was never penned.
And so far as it applies to the people of
this State, no one knows its absolute
falseness bettor than the vile ingrate
and unscrupulous vilifior by whom it is
uttered. — Sav. New*.
A subscriber asks the best way to
prepare fence posts with a view to
their preservation.
Always put the upper end of the
post in the ground, reversing the posi
tion in which it grew. Whon it is thus
placed, the moisture from the ground
will not rise so rendily as it would if
the post was placed in the position of
root end downwnrd. The rising ol
moisture tends to decompose the wood.
A further preventative against decay
is to burn tho lower end of the post,
and, while hot, plunge it into molted
tar, coal tar wil suit the purpose.
By taring the tops of posts after
they are in the ground, the heat of the
sun will causo the tar to enter the wood
thereby protecting it against insects
and rain.
Should it bo inconvenient to tar the
whole of the post above the ground,
the application of tar to the sawed end
will have an excellent effect.— Farmer
4 Gardner.
[One of the best, if not the very best,
ways to preserve posts, is to burn out
the post hole before setting up the post.
Make the fire in the hole hot and quick
—rich pine or light trashy wood is the
best to kindle the fire, as it makes the
firo quick and very hot. The quick
heat bakes a crust on the inner surface
of the hole through which the damp
ness of tho ground cannot penetrate ; the
the post is thus kept dry, and, of course,
preserved.— Ed. Jour.]
