IpsnHaneons. 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.] Population of tiik Unitkd States. — According to the last census the popu ion of the United States, and Territo v. s is 35,555,953. Os this number, j,959,437 are native born ; 5,500,546 re foreign born; 10,892,015 are chil dren of ono or both parents foreign h, rn ; 10,521,233 are of fort igti fathers ; .105,627 are of foreign mothers; for , father and mother, 9,734,845. — re are only fourteen of the States ' ,t have a population of one million ml upwards—tin largest of these being few York, with 4,372,759, and the smallest is Georgia, 1,184,109.
