We are pr pared to verily «his claim there in the congenial society of that other illustrious ex-Governor, Eufos B. Bullock, spend the balance of his days tranquilly and happy. It is doubtful if Georgia ■would IhsTS been swindled Into sending in my prosper after his departure; but as it is death to her if President Brown re mains, some good would come of his going. If he wili do as we hare suggested we pledge ourselves not to attack him any more. We even promise, with the aid of a few onions and some vinegar, to squeeze out a few tears on parting from him. But if he rejects our proposed compromise all we can do is to continue pegging away until he has broken us down or we have transferred his office from the State road depot to some othsr quarter, where he can’t read other persons’ privatp letters, and endeavor to coeroe mer chants and manufacturers into servile compli ance with his will. but if be has not ■ely in this mat- charactenze his We are at last beginning to understand the political position now occupied by Mr. Alex. H. Stephens. It seems to be vigorous and lively warfare against the Radical policy,.and smiling and cheerful support of the carrying out of that policy. Submission to law and to legal decisions, so that if Congress was to en act a law limiting his paragraphs to five lines each, and some Judge Durell was to issue an injunction against his making his edi torials more than one column in length each, on the ground that it was a violation of the civil rights bill, we have no doubt that Mr. Stephens would not even utter a protest. It may be that we are mistaken in this opinion; but it looks this way, if we can in telligently judge from his editorial on the Louisiana proclamation, published on Sun day. With the calmness of a stoic and the indifference of a statue, Mr. Stephens com ments upon Grant's proclamation to the peo ple of Louisiana. He repeats that if Grant does nothing more than enforce the mandates of a court, he has no quarrel with him. Ex actly what those mandates are; whether legal or illegal; exactly what the trouble in Louis iana is; or who is wrong or who is right, he does not know. He has been probably so busily employed in searching for those fine traits of character which he has discov ered in Grant, and which he so lauds, that he has not found time to study the story of the gross outrage perpetrated upon the people of Louisiana. It does not enter into his mind that Judge Durell may have rendered a monstrous decision, which no person was bound to respect, and that, in supporting that decision, Grant is guilty of a worse usur pation than that for which Charles L lost bis head, and Great Britain her American colonies. Mr. Stephens reminds us of that old Ro man Senator, who calmly took his seat in the Senate when the barbarians entered the Eter nal City. The old conscript father tried to fight the battle out on what Mr. Stephens would call “Jeffersonian principles.” He sat down in a calm, dignified manner, and when the conquerors entered the chamber, bis tranquil and majestic demeanor attracted thsir attention. He was an opponent of their “radical policy,” but he went for “measures, not men,” and did cot abuse their leaders who adopted and enforced the obnoxious pol icy. We are sorry to say that the aged Ro man's “Jeffersonian” proceedings didn't help him a bit The barbarians slaughtered him remorselessly, and we cannot Tecall to mind any historian who is very enthusiastic over this ancient Jeffersonian. Mil. PRESIDENT BK()W\ IX TI1K ROLE OF DON QUIXOTE. Mr. President Brown s penchant for appro priating something that does not belong to him, is so pronounced that he attempts to dismiss the Heeald with a ban mot “borrowed” from Alexander Dumas' pere, and in his usual way and graceful manner hints at a probable truth of the Darwinian theory, as applicable to one of the editors of this paper. We do not know that it would be at all profitable to enter into a discussion with the President of the Western and Atlantic Rail road ou a subject so perplexing as that of the origin of species. True enough, we may well doubt his ability to trace back as far as Adam; although if he had claimed to be in any way connected with the Hon. Mr. Barabas, who was released from confinement about the time of our Savior’s crucifixion, we would not con test the claim. From all we can learn, the Hon. Mr. Barabas was a kind of wild railroad man, and it must certainly be said that he was os much favored by Governor P. Pilate as President Joseph E. Brown was by Governor Rufus B. Bullock with this difference, that his Excellency, Mr. Pilate, did not appoint the Hon. Mr. Barabas Chief Justice of Judea. It will, not do, how ever, for Mr. President Brown to try and dodge the issue by introducing irrelevant matter. The Herald is not making a per Bonal war upon him. It is merely in the in tereet of the public, that we have assailed his administration of the State road. In close connection with his alleged abuse of power, ». the scandal concerning his obtaining I iession of General MacRae’s intercepted ^•4—try. It-Wflgajproper subject for publica- lior. The declaration that it was personal l een him and the Governor is a mere pre- ler e. He had got bold of the letter and at- t . >ted to use it against General MacRae for thf .jurpoae, as wo understand it, of driving t.. gentleman from his position cn that c. » When the fact came to onr knowledge, ave it publicity, because we saw that if general MacRae was forced to leave the road, the merchants of Atlanta and elsewhere would be completely at his mercy, and what that mercy is, Messrs. Scofield, Pelham and Wil son abundantly testify. The foregoing paragraphs were written one week ago, but for satisfactory reasons the ar ticle was not then finished, and hence not published before. Since then we have learn ed that Mr. President Brown has declared war against the Hzeald, and has vowed a mighty vow to smash this obnoxious paper, and crush ns. When we think of how many victories he has won over his adversaries, tremble at the prospect before us. President Brown's career of conquest has been so mar vellous that it does look as if we bad better suspend at once. That we can survive the displeasure of a man who pot Georgia in his pocket and kept her there for seven years who, amid the general wreck cf our struggle for independence,conquered straitened circum stances and made himself a millionaire; who was powerful enough 10 turn upon the peo pic that had lifted him up from nothingness and try to sting them, and who was strong enough to take possession of the Western and Atlantic Railroad and convert it into a machine for running a coal mine, a printing office, several coal yards, a patent letter dc tector, a cat-fish establishment, and various other mills of which this deponent sayeth notfrky—such a man we repeat, is quite pow erful though to wither a puny paper like the Hxbald. Neverthless, we shall die game. President Brown may rest assured that wo shall fight him with vigor to the last, and it may even happen that before we give op the ghost, we shall have the pleasure of giving one feeble cheer over his permanent retirement from the State Road. If he will accept a compromise we are ready to propose one. Let him resign the Presidency of the road, dispose of his numerous plantations, lots, tenements, cat fish ponds, printing offices, col lards, cab bages, etc., and retire, say to Canada, and THE TOCNG MEN'S LIBRARY ASSOCIA TION AND ITS LIBRARIAN. We understand that a combination has been formed for the purpose of shelving Mr. Charles Herbst, the present able and efficient librarian of the Young Men’s Library Asso ciation. The complaint against him is that he will not become a convert to red-tapeism; that if the Library is in want of anything he purchases it, with any money in bis posses sion, without first going through a lot of absurd forms, such as submitting to commit tees; obtaining orders, indorsements, and a lot of other stuff, which, however prudent in large financial transaction, are very ridicu lous in an association, whose gross income does not exceed three thousand dollars per annum. . It is nowhere alledged that Mr. Herbst has not faithfully accounted for every dollar be longing to the Association. A more honest man never lived in Atlanta. His single of fense is that he has not been more obsequious to a percel of committees; and for this—only this and nothing more—it is now proposed to shelve him. We merely echo the sentiments of a large majority of the members when we say that if they had believed possible an attempt to remove Charles Herbst, they never would have re-elected the men now most active against him. And we say frankly that while the old board of directors is taking a vast amount of credit upon itself for paying off the debt of the Association and increasin' membership that this excellent work was due chiefly to the admirable management of the librarian, Mr. Herbst, and to his personal popularity. If Mr. Herbst is removed to-morrow it will be in violation of tbe wishes of three-fourths of the members of the Association. There is no man in Atlanta capable of filling the posi tion as he has filled it. We, at least, know of no man in this city who would devote as much time and attention to the library; who would be as unremitting in his exertions to make it successful, and who would work as hard and enthusiastically in its behalf. To lose Mr. Herbst now would be most,injurious to the Association; and we, as members, protest against any change. He should be unani mously re-elected, given an ample salary, and left untrammelled in a work which so well suits him and to which he is so devotedly at tached. THE OPELIKA TRAGEDY. We publish elsewhere a letter from Mr. George W. Hooper, of Opelika, defending the young lady whose name has been mixed up with the scandal which led to the recent killing of Mr. Phillips. For the same reason as prompted ns to withhold the name of the lady, will we most heartily rejoice in the vindica tion of her honor. At the same time we must decline famishing the name of our cor respondent, for the present, and simply be cause Mr. Hooper is incorrect in charging him with having slandered and calumniated a lady. He, as we understand it, merely gave one side of the story, as he heard it, avoiding all expression of personal opinion, save in saying that the public regarded tbe killing as deliberate murder. He was also very careful in suppressing the name of the young lady; but be did give the alleged cause of the quarrel, and as Mr. Hooper’s frionds had already telegraphed the fact that a young lady was concerned, the details of the case became necessary. We shall commnnicate with our corres pondent to-day, and if he acquiesces, will for ward his name to Mr. Hooper, bnt not other wise. resignation, and am thug out of employment under circumstances which, without this ex planation, are calculated to throw suspicion on me. I have in my hands, as due the company on moneys collected, $158 38, but the com pany will owe me three hundred dollars as commission on deferred payments, renewals and policies which I took, and in consequence of this treatment have been compelled to turn over to them to deliver and collect I am ready for a settlement whenever they are ready to give me what is duo. I append a copy of Mr. J. W. Burkes’ letter, the original of which I still retain. Jno. G. Campbell. Macon, Ga., March 27, 1873^ J. C. Campbell, Esq.—Dear Sib: Your letter of the 25th was handed me by Colonel Magill on the eve of bis departure. He had just re ceived, and did not have time to reply. I gave Mr. Obeor his letter, and the applica tions, which will have attention. He also promised to see about the license. In regard to Thompson’s case, I want to give him a chance—if he does not do more, will ship him. I think you had better make an issue with him on commissions, on work done in H. He is not entitled to any, unless he helps you, I should so hold. You have to pay your own expenses, and when you do the work, he has no right to claim commissions. For special reasons I would not care to be known as making this suggestion—but if you can work T. out and Stetson in, it will please me—for while I like T., and know him to be a good business man, and he is a gooi cus tomer of ours in mercantile lines, yet he is no agent for insurance. Hoping you may have a good time, I am Yours truly, (signed) J. W. Bmxz, Gen’l Agent ATlASTt PAPtB Wlllj. 01! MON efer to tt apothecaries.

WEEK 10 00 MONTH 30 00 febU-dif dies,-'* I have been greatly wronged and injared by certain transactions of recent occurrence, with which Mr. J. W. Burke, General Agent |of the Cotton States, and Maj. J. Gadsden King, my former partner, are connected. I will give a brief, plain and truthful state ment of the facts, and leave a candid public to judge between us. I would not intrude these matters on the public, if I were not en tirely dependent upon my labors with this public for support. I am a life insurance agent. On the 13th of March, J. Gadsden King and myself made a contract with the Cotton States Life Insur ance Company for one year as Slate Agents. On the<C2d of the same month, I proceeded to Hawkinsville where I did a fine business for the Company, and received several letters irom the officers of the Company expressing themselves highly pleased with my success. At Hawkinsville, the Cotton States had a io- eal agent by the name of Thompson, who is also a bookseller. Mr. J. W. Burke, besides being the general agent of the Cotton States, is also a large dealer in books. Mr. Thompson, while he is a very good customer cf the said Burke, in the pnrehasc of books, he was not profitable to Burke in the capacity of insurance agent. Mr. Burk6 was anxious to get rid cf Thomp son in the capacity of local agent for insu rance, but desired to retain his enstom for books, and how to do this and not lose his patronage as a book merchant, was the per plexing matter. So when I started to Haw- kinsvihe, I was verbally instructed by Mr. Burke to get rid of Thompson in some way, but for heaven’s sake not to allow him to be known in the transaction. This I promised to do, and after I got to Hawkinsvillei:re ceived a letter from Mr. Burke, in which he again urged me to make “an iasne with Thompson, on commission.” and adds that, for “special reasons he must not be known.” I promptly earned out Mr? Burke’s instruc tions, but found Thompson hard to work out. and the result was, that ho and I got into a severe personal difficulty. When I wrote him a letter relieving him, he at once proceeded to Macon, and lodged his complaint against the way I had treated him. The matter thus grew very warm for Mr. Burke, and be and the officers of the company sustained Thompson. How, tbe next question was to get rid of me. The plan adopted was a very simple one. During my absence in southwest Georgia, my partner, Mr. J. Gadsden King, was in duced to resign, with the understanding that if he would do so, that the company wonld renew the contract with him. King sent for me, and I came np. He informed me of his resignation. I desired to know why, and he said he would not work for the com pany under existing circumstances. Feeling bound to stand up to my partner, I at once wrote to tbe company, “that inasmuch as my partner, Major King, had resigned, that I tendered my resignation also.-' Dur ing all be my the same room him with the simple statement that in two hours after my resignation was received and accepted, this man was restored to the general agency of the Cotton States. I am aware that it is a rash thing for a stranger, who is poor and has nothing bnt his character to sustain him, to enter tbe lists against a powerful corporation, and a man of apriM ^HAHKOCKHOUSE, WEST POINtTgEOBOIA.
