Telegraph & Messenger, WEDNESDAY MORNING. NOV. 1. 1W1. Flight ol Bnllock! ffhil Hull Tho stesltiily resignation and flight of ltofn» B. Bullock, Uto Governor of Georgia, through tho wicked mtaklnatloM of United SUtea radi calism, if an oront that will cause no regret in Georgia; but will, nevertheless, increase the public nneaainewi and apprehension. First, it amount! to n eonfeaslon of the enoi fraud! and maladministration which haTe charged to him, and leads to the belief that the half has not yet been told or even euapected. It is a virtual admission that Bullock's official career has been marked not only by such vio lations of pnblie duty as must infallibly bring Impeachment and deposition; bnt is stained with fraud* and feloniea which would forfeit his personal liberty to the majesty of offended publio jastlos, and oonsign him to the peniten tiary. Such apprehensions as these must have dic tated his resignation and ignominious flight from Georgia. This step was not only a vol untary assumption of the worst consequences of a constitutional impeachment, bnt it was much more. It was, also, a voluntary inscrip tion of his own name on the roll of infamy. Notorious and universal as has been the eooun- dreliam of the wretches elevated to the Execu tive Chairs of the subjugated States by Federal bayonets. Bollock was the first one to aooept the role of the oonacioua felon and flee in ad vance before the perils of a publio investiga tion. W* do not say be wseebief or greatest among the official rogues imposed by Radicalism on * the Southern people. Indeed bis flight shows that h* bad not yet attained to that brazen hardihood in villainy, which many of the others display. He was not so ooruageons, obdurate, Impudent and hardened a wrong doer as the lest of them ; and wo suppose be had found out (Un , TaeMJCy mied b , *p«cUl election, beforehand that having failed to stand up to if General Assembly shall order it Read Grant In soma small particulars. Grant would ^ cltute ^ Jon „jll see that this view of not stand up to him in all his rascality as Grant j tbe maUer iM TCIy Hullork'x Excuse For running array is jost as good as be could give. It is the same which has been presented, with unvarying regularity, by every rascal un- derthe United States government for all wrongs committed during the war and for all rascality, oppression, fraud and malfeasance coo since the war. This time, however, there ie alight variation in tbe matter of tense. It ie not now what the rebels have drr.c, tJbt he snapeeta they intend to do, in tho way of vio lence, that justifies bis flight., *' ' He says he will not “ifirinJk" from s judicial investigation of his course, bnt in tbs very sot of saying it pnls himself beyond the jurisdic tion of the Georgia court*. Fleeing, in probability, full-handed with public plunder, the man vannti his patriotism, loyalty afitf de votion to tho cause of good government, and bespatters with fool slander the victims of his official treachery, the, people of Georgia, with an apparent oonvietion that this loyal disguise of rogues is thick as ever, and can never worn threadbare. Ho will probably find him- m Is taken. Even Northern Radicalism will be scandalised by this most miserable and igno minious spectacle. They are getting tired the bold carpet-bagger who stands his ground and steals in the fsce of Southern opposition and in the broad light of day. They will hard ly halloo for the runaway nigger system public robbery. “ Governor Conley.” In his official proclamation Mr. Conley signs himself •« Governor of Georgia.” There nothing in tho facts ox in tho Constitution justify his assumption of that title. The Con stitution, in the article wc have quoted else where, is very careful not to designate him Governor. It only declares that upon the given contingency, ho shall “exercise executive pow- era"—that is to say, he shall be acting Gov- ir. And tbit hat a meaning to it. Tbe Constitution does not fill the Executive vacancy with tho President of the Senate; bnt leaves baa doos to tha others. Akermsn, (oold-blood ad and snaky) has no donbt authorised the oar- rent rumors that Bollock was to be thrown over board and abandoned to bia fate. In this dilemma with bia enormous malver sations hanging over him, and the session of the Conley's claim to be "Governor"it, therefore, mere usurpation. At tbe most be ean only act as Governor, until the Governor’s successor elected, etc., either by special or regular elec tion, acoording to tho authority conferred on tbe General Assembly by the last clause of that Legislature approaching, bis heart fails him and Metion ns prsparss for flight He writes out his letter I jj nt Cajjey had a purpose in declaring him- of resignation—deposits it in the safe bands of *.Govomor.” He bis usurped the office somebody who will keep the secret for a week I doubtless be means to hold on to it—means and giva him a fair start, and then Jliei. to defeat a special election, if ordered by the Who was this particept eriminit in a great Lecture, and if he cannot do that, to hold on frand upon tho people of Georgia 1 Who held I to big cgQrpsd title and its functions by force that resignation lor a week, while Bullock was flying with his spoils and plunder ?

I am now fnlly persuaded and satisfied that these men purpose to contro! the government and reverse the political results of the past two yean, by peaoefoi means if they can, or by foul means it they dare. Failing in this, another attempt at separation will be made. If evidence ol this were wanting, we need bnt point to tbe pnblie and private utterances of those who were foremost in secession and re bellion, and now denonnoe and ignore tbe fun damental taw—the Constitution of tho United States. Will the country heed.and take oare before it is too late to prevent another war with its frightful consequences ? If my actio j in this emergenoy bad boen postponed until after the meeting of tbe incoming body of legislators, the Executive branch of our State government would have been absorbed by the conspirators in the legislative branch, and there would have been no check upon the wholenide repeal and destijetion of all the great mess r<n of reform and progress that we havo labuiu.: so hard tr ftfitfthliwh. The free school system would be abolish tbe colored citizen denied every right guaran teed to him, sod tbe whole work of Interm.1 Improvement carried on by Northern capital would bo swept away. The growing spirit of lawlessness and proscription for opinion's sake is daily rendering the property and lives Union men and Republicans, more and more nnsnfe, and I fear the worst conseqnences the Executive offioe sbonld be tilled by one not only in ajmpatby with those who urge on and inflame this feeling, but who is moved and eo- tnated by them. With no one in tbe Executive office to cadi npon tbo genoral Government for irotection, its friends and supporters would be landed over, without mercy, to tbe assaults of their friends. For these reasons I have determined on the step believing that mnch that has alrondy been nccomplisbcd can be preserved through tha wise and firm check npon revolutionary measures that will be given by Gov. Conley, in control of the Exeontive branch of tho Government, and that thereby the good of tbe whole people of Georgia will be promoted, and I shall cheerfully give to Governor Conley all the informalionand assistance within my power that he may desire. Items B. Bunnoca. The Jliifon Fair. From tho Griffin Star.) The fair business has been r.u b-r overdone in Georgia this year, and we have published so mnch fair intelligence, that we fear tho people are getting surfeited with lb's class of news. Bat we cannot forego tbe pleasure of express ing onr great satisfaction at the success of oor State Fair jnst terminated. We have visited many fairs North and South, but can truthfully say that this wai far superior to any we have ever witnessed. To begin with: The fair gronnds at Macon are vastly superior to any thing of tbo kind we know of. They are perfectly level and covered with a majestic growth of oak and pino forest, furnishing at once a glorious shade, and ail the bounties of tbe richest Southern landscape. The Ocmnlgee river forms a natnral boundary for near one- half this magnificat park, the banks of whieh are high and beautifully terraced, and artesian wells and fountains give tbe greatest abundance of pure water all over the grounds. The buildings are far superior in rrchiteeture and oonvemenoe to any heretofore bnilt in the South for similar proposes. The race track, foil mile in circuit, is one of tbe best on the continent, with the amplest accommodations for spectators. In fact, sll tbo arrangements for exhibitors and guests were the most sump tuous. These gronnds furnish a mngjifii ?nt park for tbe aooommodation of tbo Macouites for many years to come. The exhibition of live stock was good ; that of bone stock splendid. Tbe mechanical de partments were fall and very interesting. The fliral and art departments veiy beantifcl; while the various amusements and entertain ments prepared for the pleasure of visitors re flect the highest honor npon the management. The polioe arrangements were likewise admi rable, and tbe mat of order prevailed eveiy- here. The press gave a very proper token of their appreciation of Mayor Hull's administra tive abilities in a gift ef a fine service of sil ver plate. In a financial point of view, the fair was "kewite a snceess far beyond the anticipation of the most ssngnine. There was over fifty tbonssnd visitors, and the gross receipts mast have amounted to nearly if not quite $30,000, tbps showing what energy, activity, enterprise end the free rse of printer's ink will do. Trken all in *•', the late State Fair reflects great credit npon the city of Macon and the State of Georgia. NEW A OVERTISEMENTS! NEW ADVERTISEMENTS. I F. A. M. NOTICE.

Toe names of the pn. .lea acting as Judge and Attorney of said District Corot in this district never haviug been submitted to the Senate for confirmation, we think they are acting wlthont proper authority. Onr people have ever been opposed to this court—deeming the eorrts r \ oreanized before this one esme into existence sufficient to meet all the demands of justioe. There never has been a session cf the conrt held in this county, and we consider it a great injustice and gross imposition to be taxed for the propose of paying for servioes that have never been rendered. Let those counties that have been benefit!ed by said court (if there be snob) be taxed for its support. We .'rant onr member in tbe House of Representatives will use his vote snd influence to do awsy with said conrt. We find the roads generally in good oondition. Believing that the removal of the capitol from UilledgeviUe to Atlanta has re sulted in much pecnnicry loss to the State, and subjected onr legislator* to many demoralizing influences, we thick the good of the State demands that the eapitol be removed to Milledge- The emolnmenta of the Tax Collector's and Sheriff’s offiees being very small in this county, we reeommend that the two offioes in this coun ty be consolidated, and do petition the Legisla ture (o pass a special aot consolidating the two offioe*. We also recommend that the Ordinary paas an order for the snm cf one hundred dol lars to be allowed B. P.
