Telegraph & Messenger, WEDNESDAY MORNING. NOV. 8. 1871. A New .Pyramid. Hodge, Balloch, Fort**, Stoke*, Er»n*, and Bollock—*11 Itodicato, and all flrat-ctoas deyel- open, are the leading name* added to the crim inal calendar of the ooontry within the part month. Going bock i little farther* we encoun- ter “Honeat” Too Morphy, the New York col lector, Hon. a a Batler, of Tenneaoe, Hon. Mr. Whittemow, of South Carolina, and many other* whoae name* came and went ao thick and fart *b»t wo cannot remember them. All I patriot* were member, of the Radical party, and aomo of them were high and mighty maker* of the law* they were ao fond of violating. The Bl Louis Republican suggest* that the admin istration organ* go back through their tllea for a year, collect all tbeee name*, and construct them into a Radical •■pyramid.” It would be an interesting and instructive edifice; there would be member* of Congress, Governors of State*, custom* collectors, internal revenue col lectors, Slate claim agents, pension agents, pay masters, special treasury agent*, freedmen’* bureau agents, each contributing a block to the common structure, reared a* a monument to the loyal party of th* country. Da. Acocstixi I*vitro Molinw, of Talla dega, Ala., died la Philadelphia, last Monday, at the age of fifty. He left his home some three weeks ago—attended Presbytery at Ttu- kegee, and then paid short visits to hia children and relative* in Montgomery and Maoon, leav ing Macon on the 25th of October, after view ing the State Fair here, with which he wa* much delighted. He went to Philadelphia to gratify a professional curiosity in regard to aomo recent improvement* and disooveriea in surgical and medical practice, stopping in North Carolina on the way, to visit a son in oollege in that Bute. In these journeying* he probably contracted a cold, which terminated bis valuable life very suddenly, after his arrival in Philadelphia. Dr. MeAIpine was a skillful and experienced physician, engaged in a very largo prectioe, a ruling elder in the Presbyterian Church for nearly a generation, and a Christian whoae cheerful and glowing piety diffused happim all around him. Every act and word were moulded by deep religious feeling and princi ple, and the whole manner of the man was as guileless and affectionate as a child. How such a man will be missed in his family—missed at the bedside of the sick—missed in the church —the prayer meeting and the social circle— missed everywhere, as a living embodiment of the religion of his Saviour, we can sorrowfully Imagine. It will be a sad day when the people of Talladega assemble to pay the last honors to his venerated corpse. Tito Bird's-Eye View of .Huron. Sr. Lotus, Mo., November 3, 1871. To the Subtcribtrt of the Birdie-Kye Piets of Macon: A* the time is near at band that we expected to have the view of your city ready for delivery, wo are sorry to announce that we can- not deliver them now. We will explain the rea son : The best lithographer of our views having gone to Chieago, we sent our sketch there to be lithographed, knowing if he did it, we eonld furnish you good work. Tho picture was nearly oompletod iu good style when the great confla gration thore swept away all our sketches, view*, and lithographic stones. We saved nothing of your city to enable us to goon without resketch- lug it, which we are about ready to do. Our loss has been very heavy; but all we ask of our sub- aoribers Is their indulgenoo by waiting a litttle longer than wo erected to when canvassing. We will endeavor to bring you a good picture as soon aa poaaible. Respectfully, yours, A. Itcoin. Tnx Nxw Sedative aim Ire Dasaxas.—The London Lanoet calls attention to the enormous manufacture of the new sedative drug, chloral It states that it is sold by tons a week, and quotes a letter from Baron Liebig, affirming that one German chemist manufactures and sells half a ton every week. Of course, no such quantity is used in medioine, and the Lancet seems half afraid that it gets into beer; but, the London Spectator says, there is a simpler explan ation. Taking chloral is the new and popular vioe, particularly among women, and is doing at least aa much harm aa alcohol. The drug is kept in thousands of dressing cases, and those who begin its use often grow so addicted to it that they pass their lives in a sort of oontented stupefaetion. Chloral drunkards will soon be an admitted variety of tbs species. Tux “Miutabi Gotxunob" Stobt.— Else where we have referred to the prevalence of sensational stories at Atlanta, just at this time and given our opinion aa to the reason therefor. The story of H. O. Cole's being appointed “Military Governor” caps them all, though, and we are rather surprised at our Atlanta oor- respondent a telegraphing snoh stuff. What he wants and what we want is newt, but that is un mitigated bosh. One of Munchausen's whoppers would be as apropos. Let us have some ghost of probability at least in our rumors. A colored member of the Texan Legislature was recently seen with a roll of green becks in hla hand, over whioh he ohuckled so loudly aa to attract the attention of a bystander, who said to him, “What are yon laughing at, Jim 7” Jim replied, “You see that money 7” “Yea.” “Well, boas, I just got that for my vote. I’se been bought four or five times in my life, but dia la do fust time I ever got de cash myself.”— Cincinnati Commercial Noam Caboltna Caorrrao.—The Raleigh Sentinel, of Saturday, aays that Mr. J. T. Town send, on the Cape Fear, near Fayetteville, raised this year twenty bales of cotton, 400 pounds eaob, and com and provisions enough to supply him next year, with two plow* and about three hands, and this notwithstanding the drouth. Cbicaoo families of three persona receive daily a peck of potatoes, three pounds of pork, one pound of sugar, one pound of cheese, three loaves of bread, one pound of crackers, one bar of soap, one oabbage and two quarts of onions. I'angcntty Pasted. The Boston Port thinks enough of the Great Absquatulator to give him the following adver tisement : Governor Bullock has preferred speedy slaugh ter by hia own net to tho more painful fate, a living barbecue, in fact, which his Georgia ene mies have been preparing for him. His resig nation earn* none too soon. The Georgia Leg islature is hot for impeachment. The Attorney General has been instructed to commence a crim inal suit against the fugitive Governor for coin ing large amount* of State bonds without au- thonty of law, and that very ugly matter of the sale of the State railroad has also come up for investigation. No wonder that Bullock withes to “wash hia hands of Georgia forever.” It is only too evident that all his washing will not male them clean; and if that were hi. purpose he might with belter effect bave allowSd Mm- ‘° **>• very eff“tive^rS,g- ingmacMne which the Legtalature is now pit paring. Such an array of rascalities as has been brought up against this loyal Governor of a re- oonstructed State would .uffloe to drive any man either ont of the oountty or into resignation. Bullock has chosen both. He will not visit the aoeneo of his exploits in bonds and railroads, nor will be longer retain official connection with Tnx Coro* Fctcbx.—We see the New York Chronicle, reviewing M.

Hicks.—Tho Baltimore Christian Advo cate, inlrodocicg a paragraph from the Macon tv, .rimon ass Missengeb to to its readers, says: Seldom hare we road a paragraph with more intense delight than tho one we give below from tho Macon (Ga.) TmEOBArn act Messxsc.ek. We have a particular interest in Dr. Hicks, having brought him out in the ministry while ho wan yet a youth of nineteen. God bleoa him! NIHy Sensational Stories. We are rather loaing our appetite for ihia sort of diet Anything in reason we do not ob ject to, bat baked beans for breakfast, dinner and supper are apt to become a little monoton ous. Vie hear from Atlanta that there are a lot hammer* in that city who spend their time in manufacturing all kinds of nunore about Fed eral interference with Georgia affaire, and that some weak kneed Democrats in the Legislature listen to them too much for their own good. These are all devioea of the Radical enemy paralyze Democratic energy and they should be ao understood. A good many of these reports, if traced to their origin, would be fathered upon men who have a personal interest in smothering np certain investigation*, the fall result of which might prove very disastrous them. If they can snooeed in creating an im pression that any measure is regarded as “revo lutionary" at Washington, they are satisfied, for they know there are some men in the Legis lature who shy at Grant just as s hone blind one eye does st a stomp on the roadside. Just ssy “military government” or martial law them, and they are struck all of s heap. They would hardly dare aay there souls were their own if they were told Grant and Akerman might oonatrneitas a “revolutionary”utteranoe. Such men have no business in the Legislature, but there they are, and the Radical sensation mon gers make their profit ont of them accordingly. In deoency’s name let ns have done with all this whimper and trepidation about “martial law.” If Grant thinks it is needed to secure bis election, nothing the Legislature can do omit to do, will stay hia band. Let the repre sentatives of the people of Georgia, elected freemen to act for freemen, wisely consider what is their duty, and that ascertained, let them do it without regard to what may be thought it at Washington or anywhere else. There are, of course, considerations of publio policy and expediency to be heeded to a certain extent, but the main point la to do only the things that are right, and leave the oonsequenoea to care for themselves. We oonnsel now, as we always have, the practice of the most conspicuous teitdom and moderation, but we demand for juetice equal deference. There la a happy me dium between ruinous rashness and ruinous timidity, which can always be fonnd when ■ought for by men of brave hearts and honest intentions. Let the Georgia Legislature place itself on that line and stand firm. Let its motto be paratue etfidelie. TIio Ancients vs. the moderns. Harper’s Monthly, which, unlike the Weekly, seems not to be wholly “a journal of [modern] civilization,” in an article npon the character istics of ancient cities, hts the following Integrity woe prized at the chief of civic vir tues. To make profit from a publio office was an unpardonable crime. Pericles boasted that ha had never increased his moderate inheritance by a single drachma through all bis long tenure of office. Aristides was known as the Uneor- rnpt. In the pnrer days of Rome the greet lived in poverty, and Fabridns cooked bis own simple fare. Cato was so caretnl of his honor ibst he weighed and accounted for all the gold be brought from the East. Regains, rather than violate an oath, went back cheerfully to slavery and death, leaving hia family dependent on charity. Of all the plunder of wealthy Carthage he took nothing. Horace has painted, in the grandest of his lyrics, the man of conscious in tegrity, who, intent on some noble aim, defies the rage of tyrants or the clamors of the people. Juvenal and Tacitus, in deathless satires, hold up to a degenerate age the rigor of ancient hon- gesty. Lycnrgus was for twelve years the eon- •trolier of Athena in its last decline. Millions of revenue passed through his binds, yet every fourth year his aeoonnts were audited, and were fonnd to be rigidly correct. At length, when he waa dying, be demanded anew examination. The auditors reviewed hia long career; his sc- connta were again declared perfectly accurate they were engraved on marble tablets, and the Athenian controller died happy in the approval of bia own conscience and of bis native city. Fragments of the marble tablets, it is said, have been discovered at Athens, and might prove in a tractive for modern financiers. Now let the “Journal of Civilization” give the world a fair sketch of the political morals of the last half of the 19th century, and tell ns wherein and how much “the march of progress” has raised the standard of political integrity. Wo heard a grave man yesterday predict that the Presidential canvass of 1872 would hinge npon a grand popular uprising in behalf of eommon honesty and decency in the pnblio ad- ministration. Bat on a setond Ihonght, with a puzzled expression of countenance, be added— “That ia to aay, if the people have not absolutely lost all faith in, and hope for honesty in poli ticians.” In these words he illustrated the common idea of the niter, shameless and irredeemable corruption of the government—of the total ab sence of honor, conscience, rectitude and patri otism which was inaugurated with the Radical era of the publio administration. And all this has been the work of a single decade. Ten year* ago the Radicals took possession of almost all the governments. State and National, and the result has been sn unfathomable deluge of rascality. It is true, some of the monsters floundering therein are Democrats (so-called); bnt the Rad- ioals created the element and set the example. They have introduced this flood tide of public demoralization. They have so debased the pub lic service, as to make it synouimous with cor ruption, and it cannot be truthfully denied that from their President down to the lowest func tionary, alt—all are the objects of universal, popular suspicion and distrust. Ail are believed to be reaching after irregular and unlawful emoluments, if not involved in more direct breaches of good faith and sound morals. How will this state of things compare with the days of Pericles, “who never increased his mod erate inheritance by a single dracham through all his long tenure of office 7” How does Grant who has amassed a large fortune in two or three yean compare with Pericles? Will the storm which ia raging against Stale and municipal corruption reach the great oen- tral seat of the fonl disorder 7 Will it affect the tribe of speculators, gift-takers and pecula tor* at Washington? Will it cleanse the great Federal Augean stables? That ia the question. But aa long as the rank malversation and fraud pervading tbs Federal Government is only a matter of innendo, joke and sooff by the pub lio press of both parties, let ns keep still about “human progress and the wonderfol advance ment of the age”—because, the main progress is in knavery—a shameless treason to all the obliga tions of patriotism—the injunctions of religion and the rights of the people. Colton Crop Report from MIsssIs- stppl, Louisiana, Arkansas, Texas and Alabama. In Sunday’s New Orleans Picayune, we find a cotton crop report for October, gotten np by the New Orleans Cotton Exchange, and furnish ed that paper by Ur. Henry G. Hester, Super intendent of the Assoeiatiation. From* it we mike the following extraet: The committee on information and statistics (abstaining as heretofore from making any esti mate themselves of the probable quantity to be sent to market), submit the following report of the purport of advieea received by them during the past month, concerning the crop of cotton now being harvested in the States hereinafter mentioned, viz: We have reports from this State, dating most ly from 13th to 23d October. The weather since 15th September has been favorable for picking. Crops have been materially diminished by cat erpillars in a few counties. About three-eighths of the whole crop is said to have been already gathered, and the average of estimates indicate a yield of five-eighths per acre as compared with last year. The number of laborers is reported as amply sufficiently to secure what has been nomsux.*. The bulk of onr letters embrace the dates be tween 18th and 21st of October, and represent the weather as having been, on the whole, fa. vorable for picking since 15th September. We hear of injnry from wind and rain, bnt in only a few parishes. About one half the crop is Baid to have been already picked. Previous reports of damage done by caterpillars and boll worms are confirmed. The average of animates indi cate about one-half of last year's vield per acre.
