TUESDAY MORNING. NOV. 8), 1871.
The Lingard Troupe.
Wo were much plowed, Saturday night, with
the biU of fen eot forth by thU company at
Ralston Halh It waa quite a clever exhibition,
and deserved, aa much aa any performance of
like character ever doe*, the large and fashion
able audience that were present Mrs. Alice
Donning (Lingard) la an accomplished actress,
with a good Toloe for a certain elaas of aongs,
comely, withal, and one of the moat tasteful
dressers that ever gratified oar taste in that di
rection. Mr. Lingard’* impersonations are de
cidedly the most anooeaaful we have ever wit
nessed, and his face has a mobility of expression
l|i.i tenches the border* of the marvellous. We
were heartily pleased with all of them except
that of General Lee. That should be left ont of
future exhibitions—at the Bontb, at least
does not do anything like j nstiee to the honored
original, in the fitat plaoe, and in the second bis
association even on the stage, and in this way,
with Beast Boiler, is not pleasant to many
Bontbeni eyes and hearts. The other members
of the troupe are well op in their business, and
show high trainltg and much natural clever
ness. Upon the whole Liegard's ia, in our
Southern vernacular, a first-rate "show," and
we shall be glad to see it return here in Feb
ruary.
With the qoarrel between Mr. Lingard and
Mayor Hoff we have nothing to do. There was
baaty, and, therefore, nowise action on both
■idea, bot we are aonvineod that the Mayor in
his course was influenced only by an honest
conviction or what bis doty demanded. If he
erred it waa an error of judgment, and not of
purpose.
With reference to Mr. Liogard's card published
in a paper of thia city yesterday afternoon, we
learn from the most unquestioned authority that
he misrepreaented the facta of the cave in tola,
He waa not forced to sign the eard addressed tc
the Mayor, and published in Sunday's Tele-
a asm ixu Messenger. There was no compul
sion, whatever, nsed in inducing him to affix
bis signal are thereto. He was not even under
arrest at the t|me. Mr. Liogard read the card
over and after objecting to and erasing only one
word, immediately signed it, in the presence of
several gentlemen who gave it as their opinion
that in doing so be was only acting as right and
jostles demanded.
Another CrlNl* In Npaln.
A fault in the Latin race* seems to be a con
aUtutiooai fondness for “a crisis." Franco has
bean in a orisis since 1710, saving end except
ion the few yean when Louis Napoleon was
able to keep her out of it with a strong grip of
the collar. Italy is a perpetual eriaiA She has
been a regular orisis sicoo tho Christian Ere,
and when not a crisis herself has been the fruit
ful mother of a crisis everywhere el-e. And a*
for Spain, alio is another, and n whopper. She
need to be ealled the “lethargic,” bat einoe she
got rid of Torkish opinion, and the Inquisition,
she has been as lively as an eel in dry sand.
Now she roust have a crisis quarterly, if not
more often. The telegrams say she went into
one yealerday. The lladioals in the Cortes
declared for a permanent session of that body,
and earrled it against tho Ministry, who had
aanaa enough to see that a permanent session of
any legislative body would kill any government
that the wit of man ever devised. After this
vote the government prorogued the Cartes with
out a day. We presume the Ministry will now
appesl to tho people, and the crisis will be lively
for some weeks or months to come, in which
the issue of King Amadeus vs. u Bepubiio may
stir up a mixed matter of ballots and pronunci-
amentoos.
Binn Codstt Deleoatjon.—An Atlanta cor-
rsspondent speaks in high and well-merited
terms of the Bibb oonnty delegation to the Gen
eral Assembly. Messrs. Nutting and Boss, men
of clear heads, groat exceutive ability, and
thorongbly versed in all financial matters, are
qualified to be of pre-eminent service in this
orisis of the Georgia Exchequer, and the House
has justified this opinion of them by placing
both on the Committee on Fablie Expenditures,
with Mr. Nutting as chairman, and the Utter
also on the Finance Committee. Of the two
younger men, CoL Simmons is chairman of the
Senate Committee on Finance, as well as mem
ber of several other important standing com
mittees, and Mr. Bacon of the Ilonso is chair
man of the Library Committee, and also upon
the Judiciary and Education Committees, and
both among tbe most active and influential
members of their respective bodies. We predict
for both these young gentlemen a prominent
and useful career in Georgia. Bibb county baa
never been more effiolently represented.
Tna Kirinkn Exemption Biu, —Thia bill
whiob passed tbe House on Saturday last, and
which will doubtless pass tbe Senate, makes tbe
following exemptions: For engine companies,
steam and hand, sixty members; hose, forty
members; book and ladder companies, fifty

offloera of the fire department, one Chief and
two Assistant Chiefs, and a Secretory and Treas
urer. Tbe ratio of exemption is as follows:
To ten thonaand inhabitants, and leas than
twenty thonaand, fonr hundred firemen; to
twenty thonaand or more inhabitants, six hund
red firemen. Companies organised at the time
of the passage of this act are entitled to fill np
tbetr companies to the full number allowed by
tbe act before an; new companies shall have tbe
benefit of exemption.

Tbe Atlanta Constitution, of Sunday, says:
Tiroes Commissions.—We have alluded to tbe
large commissions of Clews * Co., for negotiat
ing tbe sale of a million and a half of our
bond*. Tbe unono) is over $92,000, and it is
nnnanal, and wo mutt say extravagant.
Vo. B. Johnston, of Maoon, negotiated tbe
sale of *500,000 of State road mortgage bonds,
under Governor Jenkins, for $2,COO. He also
negotiated $300,000 of State bonds for one
quarter of a cent.
Winslow, Lanier A Co., through James Robb,
their partner, negotiated, in 1865, tbe sale of
one million of Central Bailroad bonds for one-
half per cent.
We have made inquiry and find that from one-
quarter to one-half per cent, is the regular com
mission for such large sales in New York.
Clews A Co., htve charged us from one and a
half to two and a half per cent
Let the Legislature repudiate Bullock’s agree
ment with Clews. That’s tho way to solve that
difficulty. If Clews don’t like it, let him “lump
it."
Judge Hopkins, or tbe Fulton circuit, has

fema’.o teachers. A high school has been es
tablished, with three teachers whose salaries sre
*1,800, *1,500, and $1,000 respectively.
Under the head of “Brief Mention," the
Atlanta Sun, of Sunday, says:
Mrs. Bullock left this city very quietly yes
terday was a week ago—going no one knows
where. She went away without giving infor
mation to her best friends. It is reported that
H. 1. Kimball is in New York, trying to make

building waa insured for $1,000 in the Sonth-
ern Mutual Company, of Athens.
Tbe Columbus Enquirer, has thia to say about
the election of pnblie printer.
Unr opinion is that the Legislature should
eleet a printer and pay him fair rates for the
work We do not see any greater necessity for
letting the printing out to tbe lowest bidder, on
the scorn of economy, tbsn there is for letting
oat the Supreme and Superior Court Judgeships
and the Attorney Generalships to the lawyers
who will take them at the lowest salaries.
Mr. Horace Clapp of Columbus, died last
Saturday of consumption
We clip tbe following from tbe lost issue of
the Early County News .-
Good Cbofwno.—Two or three weeks since
we gave tbe result of the labors of a young man
of 17 in farming operations. Here is tbe crop
of an old man of 55, which we think leaves the
youngster in tbe back ground. It was made by
onr old friend, Hiram Kinchen, with about half
a band hired at odd times daring tbe year, and
was all housed by tbe 8th of the present month
—and made, too, on land nearly as poor, natn-
rally, as any in the oonnty. On 18 acres in oorn
he made 300 bushels, worth $300, and 4,900
pounds of fodder, worth $40; on 10 acres in
cotton, he made 5 bales, which have been sold
for $400; on one sere in cane he made 323 gal
lons of syrup, worth $16150. Besides this,
he made 100 bushel of potatoes, worth $50;
also, a considerable quantity of field and ground
peas that were left for tbe hogs, and whieh bare
nearly fattened enough of thorn to moke 2,000
pouDdsof pork. This port of the crop worth,
say $100, making the whole crop worth $1060 50.
Mr. K. also had as good a garden as any of his
neighbors. What a lesson for some of onr yonng
sprouts who live from band to mouth, at tbo ex
pense of somebody else. “Uncle Hiram” lives
at home and pays bis debts.
Tbe Savannah News speaks tbe sentiments of
a great many people in the following article.
It says:
Too Much Hodebxtion, and not Enough
Wisdom and Justus.—We would suggest that
tho extreme “moderation” of our Legislature
is beginning to weary tbe pationoe of tbe peo
ple. With the daily disclosures of corruption
and fraud staring them in the face, the question
is being asked, what is the Legislature doing to
thwart theso stupendous schemes of riilsiny,
and to convict and pnntsh tbe villains ? It is
reasonable to presume that since tbe flight of
Bollock, both he and his companions in guilt
have been employed in efforts to escape with
tbetr plunder and sereen themselves from pun
ishment The more time that is allowed them
the better will they be enabled to fortify tbeir
rascality. Why sit this deity on the partof tbe
Legislature to institute a thorough and search
ing investigation of the rottenness that infects
tbe very atmosphere of Atlanta ? Tbe people’s
just expectations are being disappoints 1, and
patience is giving place to iodignation. “Mod
eration” is all very well in its plaoe, but too
much of it is out of piaeein dealing with thieves
and robbers. Let ns have “Wisdom, Jnstioe
and Moderation” in their order.

From the Courier Journal of Saturday j
A correspondent, whom we have reason to be
lieve to be a person of responsibility, writes to
inform us that a society is forming in some of
tbe Southern States, such as Mn-sissippi, Ar
kansas and Louisiana, with tbe purpose of get
ting rid of those negro de-peradoes who msy
be induced by money to quit tbe country. He
states that this society is strong in numbers and
in means; that its operations are not clandes
tine ; and that, in the abeenoe of a just admin
istration of the laws, it is considered a necessi
ty to the peaee of tbe Southern country. It is
claimed by the members of the organization
that their method of ridding their communities
of lawless characters by the quiet use of green
backs U a substantial protest against Ko-kluz
violence. Bat our correspondent »aya that one
of the conditions fixed to every disbursement
requires that the recipient shall go north of the
Ohio river, and be suggests that lire increase of
negro outlawry in the Northern States the last
two or three months is directly the result of the

There is something whimsical and yet alarm
ing in oil this. That the Southern people, op.
pressed by irresponsible governments snd brow
beaten by Congress and hedged round by bayo
nets, should seek an avenue of escape the aim-
pleat snd easiest is natural econgir: sod the
device of paying a marauder t - go elsewhere
instead of Ku-kluxing him seem. to be, in spite
of its oddity, a good idea. Iodee if that were
tbe end of it, if it should go no further and
entail no consequences, it wonld be a very good
idea, for no one can blame a people, who are
denied the protection of equal lass f«irly admin
istered, if they seek by peaceful means that im
munity from disturbance which is coveted by
every neighborhood in the land. A single vicious
individual may bring dreadful troubles upon an
entire community. If such on individual is
to bo got rid of for fifty dollars, or an
hundred dollars it is a cheap ml trace. It is
an instinct of fellow-feeling that the afflicted
communities of tbe South should refuse to foist
upon each other Bnch inflammable elements snd
that they should require the ruffians, whom they
have bought off, to leave tbo South altogether.
Nor is this alL Considered indiscriminately
there is something attractive to the popular
sense of fair play in thus giving to the people
of the North a taste of the dish they have pro
vided for the people of the South; and there
is not the least doubt that a very little money,
properly distributed, can scatter throughout tbe
North a roving body of murderers and marauders
enough to make work for soldiers and martial
Uw, to destroy the peooe of thousands of homes
snd hamlets, and to equalize between the sec
tions that wretched uneasiness and oppression
whieh are now confined to ono section only.
Bat this is a one-sided and vengeful aspect
of the case. There is undoubtedly a Urge class
of people at the North who are responsible for
tbe present condition or things. But there is
a larger class of people who are not. The peo
ple of the South cannot afford to raise np any
issues of revenge whatever; and an organiza
tion of tho kind indicated, no matter what its
original purpose may be, is pretry sore to be
come tire vehicle of mere Irate and wrong with
the opportunity presented for reprisal. For the
time being the labor system of tin South U de
pendent on the blocks ; and tho operations of a
society which offers a premium t o ruffians must
needs react on this. Pay a ruffian to-dsy and
be may como back—indeed, ia likely to coma
back—for more pay to-morrow. In a word,
devices founded in passion, or in tbe resistant
spirit of oppression, will never do at nlh They
may injure our enemies, but they will cortainly
recoil upon ourselves, sinking us deeper in the
slough of the ruin and degradation designed for
ns by tbe Radieal leaders. Those leaders sre
equally indifferent to their owi people to us.
Tney are a handful of bold and selfish partisan
gamblers, some seeking pillage and others
power, but nil having tbeir minds fixed upon
tbe perpetuation of their seoeion of the Gov
ernment; and in default uf this another revo
lution and civil war. Therefor, violence is just
what they want. It furnishes them pretexts.
It enables them to prey upon the fears of the
masses. It gives them leave to pass more
bayonet acts and Ku-klux bills. Tho worst
possible condition for them is the peace of so
ciety which leaves people time io think and
raises np no hobgoblins. In the heart of our
heart we believe this assertion to be true;
and believingit wo have but one hope of rescue,
and that is founded in onr faith that human
nature is strong enough and true enough, if left
to its natural impulses, to overcome the morbid
and corrupt schemes who have grown reckless
through sadden elovation, excessive indulgence
and boundless opportunity.
The white people of the Sur.lh must cultivate
the black people of the Sooth. If this is not
done we shall have ultimately n war of races.
Oar whole policy toward tile blacks from the
start has been a dismal mistake; and oar only
safe outlet is a complete acd thorough tack-
about. There is yet time by peaceful and kindly
means—by schools and by charities—jo stop
tbe process of domestio inflammation which is
going on. The people themselves in those
States where they have the power must take the
bull by the boras. If they do not, tbe evil day
will Barely come when all onr liberties shall be
swamped in a common ruin. We can not get
rid of tho blacks. They are too numerous.—
We eon not buy off the vicious nor colonize the
many. They are among ns for good or ill—
they are with ns to stay—and it is for ns to de-
eide whether wo shall shape .1 ir future des
tiny or allow the Radieal inc. _ riaiies to do it
for us, and that to onr inevitnbi - ruin.
Up with school-houses and uown with the
Ku-klnx is the word, and it it be spoken in
time, and with proper spirit and emphasis, it
will prove s word of enchantmen*.
Tbe South Petitioning.
From tbo Journal of Commerco.]
A Baltimore correspondent sends us a sug
gestion which we turn over to the people of the
South, for whose benefit it is intended. He
thinks that the southerners who ore aggrieved
by the martial law proclamations of the day,
should throw themselves back on the sacred
right of petition, and try what virtue there
would be in a long list of names appended to
a calm statement of facts and a respectful remon
strance sent into Congress. Ho is much surprised
that the 8outh has not thou i of this expedient
before, or, having thought of i t, has not adopted
it We do not shore the surprise ol our estimable
correspondent Since the war the southern people
have felt themselves at the mercy of the North,
or rather of the Administration and Congress,
and have believed that the surest way to obtain
fair treatment was to trust to the magnanimity
of their former foe, and tho popular sense of
jnstioe. Pride, also, has had mnch to do in re*
straining tbe production of petitions at the
South upon the large sealo recommended by
our Baltimore friend. There has also been a
prevalent conviction at tbo South that if any
party ia Congress desired for political ends to
keep the South under the government heel, no
amount of petitioning would stop it. While pe
titions wonld have been of sotuu service, prob
ably, we do not attach great w-cigbt'to them.
A little familiarity with the contemptible way
in whieh appeals from n helpless minority are
treated in legislative bodies, most convince
every observer that the circulation of petitions
is most commonly lost labor. In feet, there
has been no time within some months past—cer
tainly not sioce onr commissioner began his
tonr through the South—when *-• government
and the pnblie did not have me.ns of knowing
the exaet condition of the ex-Confedaracy.—
Whatever wrong the President snd his advisers,
aoting under Congressional enaction, are cow
inflicting on certain oountiea io South Carolina,
is committed in no excusable ignorance of tho
actual state of things. Political expediency, it
is clear to all unprejudiced minds, has much to
do in fiuding the oocasion to Larty the people
of South Carolina with Federal troops. No
petition can be prepared strong onongh to call
them off, it political purposes -e to be sub
served by keeping them there. But, while
petitions lay at the feet of Congress wonld be
of little avail, statements of facts signed and
sworn to by persons of known character in
South Carolina, and addressed to tbs pnblie
press, might be of genuine service. Several
affidavits snd other papers of this description
have already made their appearance, and have
had a visible effect on many Northerners, who
had believed the President's bold action to have
been entirely justified by the facts. The people
want the precise truth about tbe alleged dis
turbances in South Carolina, snd, if tuey can
be convinced that tbe establishment of martial
law there was unnecessary and a pieoe of wan
ton oppression, they can be relied upon to make
tbe President and Congress feel the pressure of
their indignation. In this sray, and not by
operating directly on Congress through the old
machinery of petitions, can tbe truth be made
effective.
A Shocking Occurrence.—The Waterloo Ob
server says:
For some time past Mr- S. B Peck snd his
wife, residents of Hector, Schuyler oonnty,
New York, have been stopping at Dr. Wood
ward’s. Mrs. Peck bss not been in good health,
snd consequently subject to pencils of great
despondency and depression of mind. On Sat
urday evening lost, just as tbe C o’clock train
from tbe west was due. she left tbe doctor's
house. Immediately after Mr IVck case in
and learning she had gone out, suited toward
the railroad crossing on Cent"- street As he
neared tbe track he pick el up .netting which
proved to be the head of bis v e, jr ■ severed
from the body. Almost frantic, with horrible
surprise, he dropped the head, and tan scream
ing and frenzied back to the bonne, where he
remained all nigbt in almost insane agony.
The Georgia Ku-kujx.—Tbo Courier-Jourrfid's
Washington dispatches say, it has been stated
in a semi-authoritativo sray in some of the
newspapers that there was no intention on the
part of the President to suspend the writ of
habeas corpus io any portion of Georgia. Fools
have been developed to show that the assertion
is too sweeping. The President has stated that
if the official investigation shown a similar con
dition of things to that in loath Cart lias be
will not hesitate to enforce lha Ku klax set in
the same way. The Ku-klux committee report
findiog that a good many outrages are com
mitted.
