— TUe Uhiti^ivrtsiilHS iCommittees,
The following committees ■were appointed by
the presiding officers of the Agency just before
the adjournment As a majority on both are
in the pay and Service of Bullock, the public
will pay little attention to their report. They
were appointed to cover np or be wilfully blind
to Bullock, Blodgett & Co's, manifold and mag
nificent financial and other operations, and we
will not do them the injustice of supposing they
will defeat the object of there appointment We
are pretty sure, however, to have healthy mi
nority reports from the honest men on these
committees, and to their statements the people
will look for the truth.

How lo Fall Asleep.
Wo came across the following receipt for
wakefolness, yesterday, and publish it for the
benefit of “all whom it may concern.” Says
the discoverer of the process:
I turn my eyeballs as far to the right or the
left, or upwards, or downwards, without pain,
and then commence rollffig them slowly, with
that divergence from a direct lino of vision
around to their sockets, and continne this until
I fall asleep; which occurs generally within
three minutes, always within five at most. The
immediate effect of this proiednre differs from
that of any other that I have ever heard to pro
cure sleep. It not merely diverts thought into
a new channel, but actually suspends it. Since
I became aware of this, I have endeavored in-
numerable times, whilo thus rolling my eyes, to
think npon a particular subject, and even upon
that which kept me awake, but I could not. As
long as they were moving around my mind was
blank. If any one doubts this, let him try the
experiment for himself.
Another “Rebellion.**
A big rebellion is working itself to a head
just now among the students of Dickenson
College, at Carlisle, Pa. The entire Junior and
Sophomore classes are engaged in it Leave of
absence was asked for and refused; the classes
absented themselves from recitation in a body,
and were marked accordingly. On Monday
morning last the Faculty notified the students
that they will proceed as usual, and absentees
from recitations that day would be suspended
nntil September, and any remaining in town
after Tuesday, May 3, would be expelled. The
classes refused to attend recitations that day.
and are suspended. The two classes comprise
one-half the students.
The Charleston theatrical people have
worked ont a very ingenious method of flank,
ing the ambitious darkeys who wish to sit with
the white folks in the theatre. "When a darkey
presents himself at the ticket office he pays his
money and receives a ticket to any part of the
house he may desire, bnt the card board unfor
tunately for him, bears a statement from the
lessee that he reserves to himself the right to
refuse any person admittance to the Theatre,
upon returning the money to bearer at the gate.
Darkey complacently walks from tho ticket of
fice to the gate, presents his card. Doorkeeper
looks at him, quietly says, “you cannot come

Mas. Runkle, alias Lucia Gilbert Calhoun,
who busied herself so wickedly to get Mrs. Mc
Farland to leave her husband and take np with
the dead free lover, Richardson, testified against
McFarland on Monday. How she looked is thus
described by a Courier-Journal special:
She wore a straw jockey hat, a brown bow,
black ear rings, black velvet cloak, stono mosaic
breast pin and black silk dress. Mr. Calhoun
has a very pleasant face—large chin and lisps
somewhat. She was, however, thoroughly com
posed when replying to questions put to her by
counsel, and agreeably disappointed all those
who expected her to say more than was asked
by connsel.
A woman who plays such parts, is not apt to
be anything bnt “thoroughly composed” under
any and all circumstances.
Grand masonic Gathering.
The Baltimore Gazette of the 2d, says :
The first session of the Supreme Council of
Ancient and Accepted Masons for the Southern
jurisdiction of the United States will convene
at the Masonic Temple, North Charles street,
to-day. The following members of tho Snpreme
Connell have arrived in the city:
Albert Pike, Grand Commander,Washington;
D. C-; A. G. Mackey, South Carolina; G. M.

Tlie Colored Celebration.
Oar colored friends say they had ten schools
in their procession, numbering between sixteen
hundred and two thousand pupils. They had
a fine time—tables abundantly supplied, and or
der perfect throughout. They desire ns to ex
press their thanks to the committee of the white
Sunday school celebration, for the use of the
fixtures left upon the ground by them for that
purpose.
Officials Appointed.—We see from the At
lanta Radical organ that Bollock—who, by the
way, signs himself “Governor”—has appointed
Capti R. A. AltinsoD, of Bibb county, Secre

We have received tho first two or three num
bers of the New York Standard, a new two-cent
daily jnst issued by John Rnssel Young, late of
the Tribune. It ia a small sheet about the size
of the Son, is well printed, and looks as if it
meant business. The editor says it will be thor
oughly independent, but we observe he supports
the Radical candidates for Judges in New York.
We are of opinion that if money is behind it,
it will give the Sun a sharp tug for the lead.
Gbeeley, of the Tribune says:
“Suppose all the Senators hRd lost their
voices bofore the beginning of the endless
Georgia debate—what would have been the loss
to the country?’*
Much 1 much! in the way of frightful exam
ples. The Bollock Senators who have distin
guished themselves in this debate must either
blush for their record or law and common sense
go into final eclipse.
Utah,—Warlike rumors come from Utah. A
private circular has been sent by the Mormon
authorities through the Territory ordering the
brethren to assemble at the school honses for
drill. Danites are being enrolled and • arming

that the Mormon church is peaoe.
They are experimenting with Carolina rice

A Prophecy Literally Fulfilled.
In April 1861 the late Gerard Hallock, editor
of the New York Journal of Commeroe, pub
lished an editorial in that paper in which he de
clared that one thing would be demonstrated by
■•war upon the Southern'States, viz.:- “That
we have not, and in ike client of the subjuga
tion of the Soutkem States, are not likely to
have suck, a Government as the Constitution
contemplates, or such as our fathers understood
to be instituted, when dhe Union was formed.
The government then established was a govern
ment of equals, in which all toeTStates would
perform willing parts. The one which our war
like friends, represented by the Lincoln Admin
istration would prove to exist, is a Government
of force, where a majority of States, or of tlie
Representatives, as the case may be, skaU hold
(he minority in subjugation to their uilL”
For the expression of sueh sentiments as this
Mr. Hallock was forced to retire from an edito
rial career extending over thirty-three years,
and to abandon bis valuable newspaper proper
ty. How true the above words are, an examina
tion of the present political condition of the coun
try will tell. And the blistering shame of the
wretched business is that so many of the ram
pant, raging, foaming,‘blood-drinking secession
ists who swore the same thing, and urged the
people to rise in arms against so fatal a result,
are now the busiest, meanest instruments in
the service of the tyrants and assassins who
have worked out, through so much blood and
misery, this remarkable prediction.
It has come to pass, now, that whenever this
“Government of force” has a peculiarly dirty
job to do, it selects its workmen from thin
class. They have been found by experiment to
be the cheapest, most zealous, and most un
scrupulous tools with which to accomplish the
schemes of Radical villainy and vengeance.—
The pages of history are cumbered and shamed
by the deeds of many sorts and descriptions of
renegades from honor, faith, and manhood, bnt
none of them famish a parallel to those that
record the monstrons apostacy of Southern se
cessionists to Radicalism.
Here in Georgia we have many notable in
stances of this unspeakable shame. .It is a mat
ter of record that, among all the purchases by
Bullock & Co., of instruments among the white
race to work out the degradation and destruc
tion of their fellows, nono have sold ont them
selves cheaper, .and worked more, industriously
for their master, than those who -swore they
wouldn’t wait to eat their breakfast before dis
solving the Union. They were proud of the
appellation of fire eaters,” then, and we
shouldn’t be at all surprised if they did not glo
ry in the shame of being known and scorned as
“dirt eaters” now.
The Lord help their base souls ] They have
sinned past man’s forgiveness, certainly. The
greatest and only boon they dare ask for is to be
forgotten.
Agency Suspended.
The Atlanta Congressional Agency suspended
operations on Wednesday last till the first Wed
nesday in July next, when they will give ns an
other touch of their quality. Their bill for mile
age -will be considerable, if not more; and as for
their per diem, jnst count it when they say “ad
journed sine die.” If the people of Georgia
ever get another chance at the polls to elect leg
islators, one of the most important considera
tions which they can propose to themselves will
be to limit this per diem. Vote for no man who
will not solemnly pledge himself to limit the per
diem to five dollars or under. Anything beyond
a bare subsistence is a premium offered for pub
lic waste and mismanagement—protracted ses
sions—excessive legislation—interminable mon-
things, and all the thousand and one flagrant
abuses 6* u ’ v out? of sessions to consume

in a private capacity, he goeth abont like a rag
ing lion among a pack of legislators, so-called,
who are notoriously using their office for its
petty emoluments. The men who vote them
selves nine dollars a day, will not stop at that,
when changes for profitable sales are flying
about like the leaves of autumn in that centre
of shameless corruption—Atlanta.
Wo say, then, to the people of Georgia let ns
fix npon the lowest minimum which shall give a
decent white man his bread and-meat in Atlanta
while necessarily engaged on public business,
and so make it the interest of all, so far as we
can, to go abont their private business as soon
as consistent with public duties. Negro mem
bers, it is true, cannot be reached in that way,
because the smallest minimum in their case will
be extraordinary pay; but it is improbable that
many negToes hereafter will find their way to
the Georgia Legislature. Put the whites on
the lowest basis of compensation and we shall
have no more protracting sessions for the sake
of the per diem.

A Parly Platform.
We see that some of the Radicals are begin
ning to wriggle nneasily in Washington and to
talk abont new political combinations, third
parties, and so forth. They see that ontside of
reconstruction—negro equality, etc., they have
no common standing room, and current events
will not leave this to them long. The dogma
of universal equality, which is the only funda
mental principle they hold is, in truth, but a
mere sophistical vagary which the common sense
of mankind and the dealings of Providence, will
finally confute; and it is more than probable
that even the Radicals themselves will be the
first to repudiate it. Let them apply it to the
Chinese, and one half of the party would aban
don it now. Yet this is the only tie of principle
they can boast. All the other bonds of cohesion
are that series of temporary measures and expe

or were spawned of its horrors and disorders,
What, on the other side, is there to band free

That platform is comprehensive enough to em
brace every friend of the Constitution, the
rights of the States and of liberty well-ordered
and secure. The Radical party proclaim with
Greeley that government in all its parts must
yield to the nobler demands of the “rights of a
oommon manhood”—they being the exponents.
The plan of carrying on the government out

the very life of radicalism, and whioh it will

the country, is a government of Jaw or of party
caprice as expressed by Congress.

Remarlra on the Occasion of the Dec
oration oTthe Graves ot the Confed
erate Dead, nt the Cemetery at Per-
ry, Ga., April 26,1870—By Andrew
S. Giles, Esq.
[published by bequest.]
To-day is the sad anniversary of the final
catastrophe of our “lost cause “
Five years ago the remnant of General John
ston’s command surrendered at Greensboro,
North Carolina, to Sherman's flashed and vic
torious legions.
How appropriate that we, the conquered,
should set apart this day to commemorate the
fallen brave of onr hapless struggle. How sweet
the consolation that from the surrender of all
else we held so dear, we kept back those priceless
boons—cur unsullied honor and the sacred and
precious memory of onr heroic dead.
As we stand this afternoon by their honored
graves, let ns steal onr thoughts away from tho
cares and business of life, to dwell awhile npon
their noble patriotism, their heroic sacrifices,
and their historic death.
Nine years ago the earth for them was clothed
with as sweet attractions, and the future was as
fall of promise as for ns, their survivors, this
pleasant spring-time of the year.
"With life as dear and hope as alluring they
perilled all and lost all—even life itself—in our
“contest for freedom and struggle for inde
pendence.”
“The breezy call of incense-breathing morn,
The Bwallow twittering from the straw built shed,
The cock’s, shrill clarion, or the echoing horn
No more shall rouse them from their lowly bed.
•
“For them no more the blazing hearth shall born,
Nor busy housewife ply her evening care,
Nor children run to lisp their sire’s return,
Nor climb his knees tho envied kiss to share.'
How sorrowfully do we think of them! How
reverently would we speak of them! How we
loved and admired them, as sons, brothers,hus
bands and fathers, friends and compatriots.
Grant that their cause was unworthy—with a
manly honeBty they maintained it, and with a
sublimity of fidelity' without'a parallel, they
sealed their devotion tyith the sacrifice of life.
To ns who felt .the same impulse of patriot
ism, their effort may seem fruitless, and their
fate untimely; but God governs by inscrutable
providences.' The “blood of the martyrs” has
been “the seed of the Ohnrch;” and let ns
cherish the hope that from the ashes of these
dead heroeri; there shall yet exhale an influence
which shall pnrify the hearts of the people, and
bless onr bhildren’s children with the rich heri
tage of freedom. '1 ■ ')
Adown the vista of the future, methinks I
behold the now withered tree of Constitutional
Liberty—which was planted by our rebellions
forefathers and watered with patriotic blood-
standing forth with renewed vigor, under whose
ample shelter enfranchised millions aro chant
ing the praises of onr Confederate dead.
Let ns ever cherish their memory, and we
shall sanctify onr own hearts and fit them for
the highest and best purposes of life.
As the rolling years shall return the day, let
not the occasion be forgotten; let gentle hands
bestrew their graves with flower?, and manly
hearts grow soft in the contemplation of their
virtues. As we thus honor the dear ones who
are buried in onr midst, let ns not forget those
who sleep in far-off, unknown graves.
“The year
Comes with its early flowers to deck their graves,
And gathers them again as winter frowns.

Brigham Young’s Harem.
The rooms of the women are very mnch alike,
and furnished nearly alike. They are plain bnt
comfortable. The women live in them precise
ly as people do at a hotel. Each lady has her
own key, and when she goe3 ont she locks her
door. There is little visiting back and forth,
and the ladies behave very mnch as guests at a
first-class hoteL Every morning and evening
at the ringing of the bell, the inmates of the
harem meet in the parlor to attend prayers,
sing a hymn and Young prays fervently. Tho
prophet nsed to eat at the harem with his wives,
Put he seldom does so now. In the morning,
on rising, each woman puts her room in order,
and if she has children dresses them for break
fast, After prayers they all go to breakfast,
the ladies with children sitting at little family
tables and those without children at the com
mon table. The same food is given to all, and
the bill of fare is by no means a poor one.
Brigham, from time to time, designates one of
his wives to take charge of the cooking, and re
main on dnty nntil relieved. Daring the day the
women walk ont, sow, sing, play the piano in
the parlor, or walk with the children. Most of
them spin, make cloth and color it. They are
very prond of their cloth and embroidery. In
the evening all hands go to the theatre, 'where
every one of Brigham's wives has a reserved
seat. It is said that Young liberally supplies
his wives with money, and on fine d iys they
drive ont and go shopping. He employs a mu
sic teacher, French teacher and dancing master
for the use of his household. Brigham’s wo
men are well-dressed,bnt still they have to work
hard, and he keeps np a wholesome discipline

The New York Daily Bulletin says that while
there are a good many merchants in town from
the West and Northwest, Southern buyers aro
still scarce. The editor says:
“Various reasons are assigned for this appa
rent indifference. It is ascribed by some to tho
political disturbances resulting from toe failure
of attempts at reconstruction; by others, to the
heavy purchases made last fall in onr market
by that seotion, and which, to a great extent,
remain undisposed of; and still by others to
the proposed investment of all the available
capital in cotton planting for toe ensuing crop.
However correct or otherwise these theories
may be, the foot remains that toe Southern
merchants who entered onr market in toe early
part of the season have confined their purcha
ses to very limited amounts. "While buyers
from other sections aro now here duplicating
their early bills, we have yet to hear of any no
ticeable similar transactions from toe Southern
trade.”
