It thinks that experinoe ainoe jjit provea the experiment of eiectiog jadges a feilare. • _________ D os'r Ini* Bs-paoTanLE Pa ,ru —Aooordiog to the Courier J .nrntl, OoL Moaby, in a re- eeot interview. declared that the Badioal party of Virginia did not want the respectable people of the State to rapport the Administration, end that do man nominated by their convention at L.nshbnrg will stand the moet remote ohanoe of aaoOMO. Col Mosby also declared his pref- ernoso fur Grant for a third term. Cbtxltt to Ami ils.—The Legislature of X«w Jersey, at ita lest session, passed a very ■triageatand comprehensive law against cruelty to eoimale, giving powers to the “New Jersey Society for the Prevention of Ornelty to Ani- nnl*'' end ita agents to arrest offenders, and lake them before a magistrate. Sncb a law ought to bo In force in all the States, and rigor ously executed too. Ilnmanity is too often out raged in the dray department of Haoon. A nurruMA* from the oonntry who vfalted Sareoneb last Friday, monrns the loss of $250 oodi r these eireomatanoes: He made some por- cbeaefl at the drag store of Luwrenoe ,k Weisohel- beom, on Market Square, and palled oat hfs pocketbook to pay for (he same forgetting to retnro it to bla pocket. He walked ont and af- tar going a short diatnnoe thonght of it and im mediately retnrned bnt the pcoketbook was aaa at. It is thonght some durkey witnessed tha transaction and took oere of the deserted P.B. n Tot Eifiirr Horn Law.—The Committee on Industrial Interests and Labor, in the Pennsyl vania Constitutional Convention, has submitted a long report on the eight hoar question, with a recommendation that the two resolutions pra- aanted on tha sebjeot, one of them fixing eight honrs as a legal day’s work, and the other pro hibiting the Legislature from ever interfering with the right of the employer to regulate the boars of labor and priors to be paid for the tame, be rejected by the Convention. The re port deolares that a compulsory eight hoar law oasnot be enforced, and takes strong ground in favor of a constitutional provision establishing beyond legislative removal, the right of the people to form associations or corporations for any lawful business, with either limited or un limited liability. Tas CuKosna Hcjrmso the Rioobds.—A Georgia Granger tells ns the brethren have been tending into atatistios above their ankle# lately. They find that the farming interest In Georgia comprises jnst about eight tenths of the voting popniation of the State. Upon look ing into State legislation, they find as follows: fix-tenth* of it devoted to altering and amend ing the Code, and the general hnsiness of facilitating the enforocment of contracts, or eluding them aa the case may be. Trom two to two and a half- tenths Is in relation to corpora tions. Abont one and a half-tenth may be characterised nodor the head of miscellaneous. Lea than one tonth has any special referenoe to tbs interests of tbs formers, who compose eight-tenths of tho voters. This shows the way the old thing works. This indioalea the chi merical and nopiaotioai character of legislation ia Georgia, which negleots and overslaughs the great foundation interest of society. The grangers are miking np their minds to get a hairing hereafter. The Doylcstown Democrat, ono of the ablest and beat weeklies in Pennsylvania, has this to ■ij by way of advioe to those who take tha paper published in their own oonnty r Fomas oir Nswsrarxns.—After an exemption from postage on newspapers, within the oonnty where they are printed, sinee the government was founded. U is to bo exaoted from the first day of next July. It Is bnt a trifle, to be sure— five cents a quarter, or twenty oents a year, hot it subjeets many to inconvenience, and is a tax on the oironletlon of local intelligence. The cironmatanoe of its imposition makes it an out rage on the poople. Congress took this mean revenge for being obliged to repeal the frsnking privilege, aud ajierwsrd, “to make all things even" the members voted themselves $5 000 beck pr.y, and increased their salary $2 500 for the future. This postage law cannot atand agstnet the indignant protest of the people—and will be sore to tie repealed at the next session of Congress. We wonld therefore advise oar subscribers not to pay more than six months postage, ten oents, in advance, because we be lieve the law will be repealed before the expira tion of that time. Between ita beck pay iniquity and the spite ful raid made upon newspapers, which are the chief media of intelligence and information in the conntry, tho last infamous Congress bids fair to btve a warm timo of it. We shall see if the oombined power of the press is not able to squelch this miserable conglomeration of inter ested law givers, whose solo mission, it ap pear*, was to feathor their own neats and oripplo the progress, material and intellectual of their constituents. Already the meroileea application of tho “whip of email oorda” In editorial bands, has brought back into the treasury near two hundred thousand dollars of conscience money from these Federal harpies, and more may be expected. The chief managers of the Credit Mobiiier, too, hare aotnally died under the ca>t!gation of printer’s ink, and it ia not too much to assert that the special legiala tloo against ths press will nndonblledly be re- pealed at an early day of ths next session. It wonld be well for these sapient salons to rsfieot that the newspapers will have a word to ■ay when the question of re-eleotion to their seata is mooted again. This Ux waa Intended as a punishment to the prees for ita indepen dence in daring to oppose congressional trends and spallations. Bat the people will have it to pey, and they will not be alow to dieeera the fact and act accordingly. The “Democrat” also addresses these brief words to its ex changes: To Oca Exchanges.—The payment of post age 03 exchanges, after the 1st of Jnly, will compel ns to ent down oar list. It has been too : ■ ,vy for years, and we have often contemplated its redaction. We receive a Urge number of newspapers that we cannot read for want of ' - We have sent the Democrat to theca ent ■ mpiiment, hut circumstance* now oblige ns to reduce the number and quality of our ex changes to s business basis. Between now and ■ -! of duly we shall overhaul onr list, aod all newspapers which do not receive the Demo- ' ex.-hange after tha: time, will under stand that they have been dropped, although with regret and reluctance. Swift Jrsncx —Oa the evening of May 26, George W Duncan forged an indorsement to a j' po-ti ffi -e order. The next morning he fled 11 V rg.c;a C:tv. On the 27ih Secret Savvies I'.'.e.-t.ve Colonel Finnegsss ascertained his whereibunls and followed him, returning with I--- prisoner to the city Jane 1. The nert day he was examined by Commissioner Oil dime, and held to answer before the grand jury. An indictment wee found against him the same d»y. Oa the . :h he waa arraigned before the l oiled State* Circuit Court, pleaded guilty, and was sentenced to two veers and throe months hard labor in the State' prison. Yesterday morn ing, less than fifteen days after the erime wai committed, Dancen was delivered to tbs prison warden by OoL Finnegsss .—San Franciteo Bulletin, June 11. Tha Lsalelaaa Dirt Esters-How the Negroes Surrender. The negro organ at New Orleans, the “Be- pnbliean," accepts the Beauregard k Oo, “New Departure" with the meet contemptuous indif ference. It calls the whites who took part In tha moating “new converts, gives them a tolar- able oool reoeption, and thinks they should bo kept on their good behavior and on tho anxious bench for a while, and fn tho mean time to be especially watched by the colored folks to see if they are quite sincere and trustworthy—remind ing the darkies aforesaid how, in the past, these men have enslaved and driven, and worked and murdered them. Each is the reception given to Beauregard and hia friends by the negroes. We are heartily glad to roe the negroes show ing such oontempt for these creatures. Wa think they estimate them exactly at their true vaine and we trust they will watch them very closely. If they do not the dirt eaters may go back on them just as sndlen'y and basely as they have on tbe whites. How this sickening spectacle is regarded at the North may be jodged from the following from the New York Son, which says, and with much truth: Giving the negroes a fall half of all the publio offioes in Louisiana will not be sure to restore prosperity to that State, or to condnoe to better relettone between the races Toe people there may be divided into two classes, those who pey taxes, own property, and have a material inter- est in the prosperity of the commonwealth, and those who neither own property nor pay taxes. The first class is composed almost entirely of whites. To these may ba added a few well ed ucated colored men, mostly to be fonnd in New Orleans. Tbe seoond class includes nearly the whole of the negro population, and it is by the votes of this class, aided by interference from Washington, that a gang of thieves have been enabled to plunder the State withont mercy. To snppoee that giving the representatives of this class more power wonld better matters in any respeot is folly. . What the people of that State want in order to bring abont a retnm of prosperity, and what they have a right to, iatheunreatricted exerolse of self government. Louisiana ia to-day re habilitated in all the rights and prerogatives which belonged to her previous to the rebellion, and there is no reason why ehe should either bargain with negroes abont the division of offi ces, or ask the grsoious permission of President Grant In order to be permitted to choose her own rulers. It is true that her legally consti tuted government has been overthrown by military fores; bat that has been done in defi- anoe of law to mainly advance the sokemee of a disreputable member of the President’s family. But for this outrage a d«y of reckoning is to oome, and it will oome surely. In ths mean time it is pleasant to see white and oolored citi- zsns adopting resolutions of mntnal esteem, and it fs to be hoped that these proceedings may be productive of good results. Bat mil lions of sach resolutions wonld not restore to Lonisieoa one of tbe rights whioh have been torn from her by tbe insolent hand of unlawful power. The Magazine*.

Manry, and following it is a very extensive se lection from current foreign msgazine litera ture. The Soutoehm Mioizine, of Tnrnbnll Broth ers, 8 North Charles street, Baltimore, combines judicious selections from Foreign Liters tore, with tbe oontribntions of very able 8oathem correspondents. Tbe latter, indeed, monopolize the most of this number. Among the writers for tbe present number, are Professors F. Echai- ler, B. L. Gildersloevo, Edward Spencer, W. U. Kemper, O. Woodward Hotsoo, Henrietta Hardy, Sidney Lanier, Prof. F. G. Holmes and others. No monthly in tbe oonntry has in tact, a finer ataff of contributors. And it is alto gether one of tho most valuable monthlies on onr exahange list The Patrons ol Husbandry. In onr notice of this order on Sunday, Dr. J. P. Stevens was spoken of as one of its Secre taries. It should have been written “Deputies.” Of those there are three for the State of Geor gia, viz: In the First and Second Congressional Districts, Dr. J. P. Stevens; Fourth and Fifth, George W. Adams, Esq., and Seventh, Eighth and Ninth, Rev. Wnllaoe Howard. Mr. Adams says so rapid is tbe increase of granges, that at least ftoo hundred will be in operation before tho olose of tho present year. The mc'.to of tho organiz rtion ia to “antagonize with no one, bnt render all the aid material, moral .and intellectual that is possible to esch other.” The co-operation of tho ladies lends new zest and interest to the movemenL Ravage* of the Cholera on Saturday at Naahvtlle. We find the following in the Atlanta Constitu tion, of Snnday: Nashtiixx, June 21. 1873.—We had a very heavy thunder storm last night, and all pre dated that it wonld have a good effect. The weather of yesterday was extremely hot, and to that is attributed the fearful ravages of the disease. _ Dp to 5 r. n there were eighty-two deaths Tbe total number for the day must have been nearly ninety, of which a large proportion were negroes. J. K. Jenkins, jailer, was one of tha dead. W. H Nanoe, the well known insnranoe agent, was another victim of the fell disease. The weather is very hot again this morning Tho railroad aud telegraph offioes will probably be moved out to points on the lines. Half the population has already left the city. By cam paring the mortality with tbe reduoed number in the eity, yon will better appreciate tbe terri ble nature of tbe disease. Hearses con every where be eeen oarry ing away tbe deed. This is noplaoe for the timid and even the stoat-hearted ahndder at the scenes of death. Jun 21, 12:S0 P si —The disaase is raging fearfully to day; mortality unprecedented. The bravest are losing heart. Jcxk 21,6 p. si.—At 4 o’clock the deaths num bered between 40 and 50. It is difficult to as certain the exaot number. It is believed that tha deaths of to-day will exoeed 100. Wild ru mor* are afloat. People are fleeing in every cU- rection, and no men remains except at immi nent peril of his life. The scenes of this day an appalling and beyond description. Ths Beeches Txocble.—The fondling folly of some of Mr. Beecher’s female adorers, un opposed by a compensation of wisdom on bis part, *»■« much to answer for all this misery aud shame. The uncharitable and uncomprehend ing world withont cannot understand certain grades of loving familiarity, however inuooent in fact, on any other theory than that of crim inal intimacy. Many women, it is certain, have bean madly in love with Mr. Beecher. I know of one. Many others have lavished upon him the fondest idolatry, as a sort of god, eager to h-b th 6 j,em of his garment, and when favored with actual intimtey—we ali know what such woman will do. There is some foundation for the Story that Mr. Beecher had made a confes- eion and asked forgiveness. A friend of mine has seen the letters. But there was nothing of a criminal nature confessed; only just such in discretions as I have indicated. — iij'.ti -ore American Letter. “A Suez Cecp.”—The Athens (Tcnn.) Post has the following encouraging report from that section: Parties who travel much in East Tennessee will not fail to notice the cumber of healthy looking children to be met with at almost every house. Wheat may fail, corn and potatoes, and the fruit crop, all those may fail occasion ally, bnt in respect to children East Tennessee never fliokerm. There is, perhaps, no country in the world where the efforts of the husband- mw in that department of Industry are more booBtoonsly or more surely rewarded. THE GEORGIA FUR.

The Columbus Enquirer, of Sunday, Bays: Bxidox Accidxji t—Hxvxxax. Pinson Izjubxu —On MoararLT.—We lean that lata Friday afternoon, a bridge being erected by Mr. W. O. Cherry, over Mulberry creek, in Harris oonnty, came down with a crash, precipitating fifteen workmen to the ground, twenty or twenty-five feet below. By the accident five persons were injured—one it is thought fatally.. The name of the dangerously wounded man la William Thomas, oolored. A white man named Thomas had an ankle broken and another oolored wi“ t named Hill, was seriously injured. Two others, whose names we did not beer, were slightly in jured. It seems the party were engaged in taking down portions of the old and ereoting portions of the new bridge ia their stead when tbe aod dent happened.

The courts, schools, banks, and nearly every other place of bnsineu are closed. Silenoe, disease ani death, reign supreme in the once happy and prosperous city.

Atlanta Bubol&bs on the Bampaoe. The Atlanta Constitution of Sunday has the follow- lag: We hare to recount to onr readers, this morn ing, yet another attempt at burglary, whioh. for the boldness of the attempt, and the coolness of tbe would-be bnrgiar. Is jnst a little ahead of anything of tbe kind we have ever before pub lished The attempt was made upon tha well known residence of Captain Willis Grant, on old Petohtree street, and the time wa* half, past three o’clock. Thursday morning. The bed room ooenpled by Ospiain Grant and hia aoeom- pllahed lady, ia situated upon tbe first floor, just back of tbe parlor. One of ita windows opens upon Line street, and is sbout four test from the ground. Below is a grass plat. Tbe window is proteoted with wooden shatters, fas tened upon the inside with the ordinary clasps. On the morning in question, at about half-past three o'olook, Mrs. Grant waa awakened from her slumbers by a painful fooling of uneasiness that something was wrong. This feeling be came so intense that she awakened her husband, speaking very low. and tailing him to keep awake while she crossed the room. He told her be wonld, turned over, and went to sleep again. As Mrs. Grant was about to rise she looked towards the window, snd saw tbe blinds opened and the figaes of • men standing fall against the sill jnst abont to spring into the room. With wonderful ooolness she aronsed her husband again, telling him softly to look at the window. He saw the man, bnt un fortunately altered sn exclamation and the ras cal disappeared. Both then sprang from the bed and went to the window. Looking out they sew the scoundrel standing inside thu fenoe jnst at tha corner of the boose. Oapt. Grant called slond to his negro to bring his gun, bnt Mrs. Grant sprang to the bureau, seized a re volver lying therp, and instantly returning to tbe window she fired twioe at the bnrgltir as he waa making track dawn the street. The noise aronsed tho neighbors, and nude the rogue take strides about five feet in length. Had the pis tol been at the head of the bed, where it will hereafter be kept, somebody would have got hnrL The man was tracked the next morning some distance through the mad, but has not yet been caught, although C ipt. Grant the next day offered two hundred and fifty dollars for his ap prehension. This is the seoond time a burglary has been attempted upon this home. The first attempt, about two years ago, was more success ful, and the Grants lost forty-two pieocs of val uable silver, taken from their dining roc m, and whioh has never been recovered.

Longstreet, of Efficghim oonnty, a relative of the author of “Georgia Scenes,” and before the war one of the most prominent and sue- eessfol planters in the State. The following is from the Savannah News, of Saturday: The Tcbicco Cass—Mcnticn hag been made in the News of the arrest of a well known mer chant of this city, on ibe charge oj selling leaf tobaoco without a license, and of his being bound ovc-r for appeartnoe at a preliminary examination to take plaes to day. As ths osse is one of considerable interest, we propose to give a few particulars ooDOerning it, which we feel will in nowise operate to the disadvantage of the parties oenceroed in it. It spposrs that tbe defendant in this ease, who is not a retail dealer in tobacco, disposed of aomn twenty ponnds to a gendeman living on the Central Railroad some distanoe from the oity, at the original price, as a favor. The tobaooo was not sold for profit, and the renntation of the gentle man in question is sufficient to protect him from the snspicion that there was soy intent to violate the law. The gentleman who proonred the tobacco, in connection with a friend, desired it for the purpose of having some cigars manufactured for their own use. A cigar maker by the name of Aaron P?yser, living near Macon, waa employed to do this work. Peyser subsequently got into trouble, we under stand. in connection with another matter. He then it appears (whether for the purpose of mak ing something by the operation, or from some other objsot.) posted np to Haoon, and in formed tbe D S. Revenne officer at that point, of the sale of the tobaooo, of the eireomatanoea in oonoeotion with whioh it appears be was familiar.* The met ter was at onoe reported to the supervisor at Raleigh, who sent orders here to the revenue oollector to cause the arrest of the merchant. This, briefly, represents tho whole case. Tha penalty for an infraction of the law ia very heavy, aa the party gniity thereof, upon oon viction, is required to tike ont a license for the year, which is $500, pay a fine of $500, and suffer imprisonment. The law, we understand, is very strict, and prohibits any one. otber than a licensed dealer, even giving away leaf tobacco. There are circum stances connected with the case, however, which npon investigation will entirely exonerate the defendant of any purpoee or imtention to evade the law; if not before a oonrt of inquiry, such as that held by U. S. Commissioner Wayne, at least before ahigber tribunal. The Alabama sad Chattanooga Ball* read. From the Belma Times 1 We bad hoped never to have been again called npon to chronicle anything in reference to the management of the above road of an unpleasant character; bnt tbe nuisance oontinuea, and there seems to be no chsnoe for abating it- Not Ioog ainoe, Stanton had the road and was going to make it first-class, and rnn it no schedule time, etc , all of which earned general rvjoidng slang ths line of the road and throughout the State. Now we have tbe statement in a relia ble shape that Stanton has had to give 19; that he and all hia relations, with theta fat salaries, have deserted or been kicked ont, and that the receivers of Judge Bradley's oonrt have plaoed tbe management in the hands of Mr. Fitch, formerly an employe of the Mobile aud Ohio railroad. The trains are a till running on the Northern division of ths road, from Chatta nooga to Tuscaloosa. Bat there are no trains running between Ttueslooaa and Meridian. This road has been an ontrage npon tbe people of this State, not only aa a swindle and absorber of tbeir money, paid in taxes, bnt it has fur nished to them no medium of travel, with any degree of regularity, sinee it waa started. We have no ides when ita legal status will ever be determined, for it has been wrapped np in legal complications until it will take the best legal talent for long years to oome to wind np and whip ont the endless forms of litigation with which it will be attacked. The. Rct. A G. Hughes, a prominent Pres byterian minister, ot Orange oonnty. North Carolina, died suddenly last Snnday in his pul pit, shortly after announcing hi* text. The Hatan Bar Dinner. Editore Telegraph and Jfeaienger : A writer under the non de plnme of “Hoosier” in the Atlanta Herald of Saturday morning last, in oommanting on tha occurrence*! at the reoent dinner of the Haoon Bar, makes such a oarrica- tnre of the affair as to render it proper that tbe ocenrresoas at that dinner should be truly stated. And first, as to the getting np of the dinner. The Haoon Bar eoncluded that in accordanoe with tb6ir usage, they wonld have theta dinner to oome off some day daring the present term of Bibb Superior Oonrt, snd sb Judge Hill had held the aeoond week of Washington Superior Oonrt for Jndge Johnson, (aud he waa to re- turn the favor during the term.) they wonld have this dinner at such time as Jndge Johnson should be here. It is proper farther to say that Jndge Johnson stands deservedly high aa a jurist with the Macon Bar, he having held a portion of a term here during hia previous ad ministration, and in a manner eminently satis factory to them. The Judge came and the dinner took place, as is already known. The Governor of Georgia aod the Judges of the Bupreme Oonrt, as well as Jndgi Johnson and others, were invited gnesta. There is no doubt but ths Bar intended to do honor to Judge Johnson, as th^y did to the other distinguiite i guests invited. Bit it is a great mi-tike, I apprehend, to aoppoee that the dinner waa got ten np for bis benefit exclusively. But it no happened that the Governor aod Judges of tbe Supreme Cinrt did not come, and the knrden fell on Jndge Johnson, as the most distinguished of the invited guests present, to do tha honors of the occasion, and be discharged the duty right worthily. Judge Johnson had been, and then was, a distinguished Circuit Judge (a trust of no small honor when, as in hia case, worthily discharged.) He had filled the Executive chair with distinction in the happier days of the republic, and he was act decant can didate for the Vice Presidency on the ticket with Stephen A Dooglas in 1260. Of coursa it was expected that he wonld be oalled on for reminiscences (as he was) in each of these de partments. “Hoosier” oomo’.tins that, inasmuch as his friend, Governor Smith, had been an invited guest, his interests should have been looked after more carefaliy by tbe oompnny. I do not see it in this light The moet that a guest in vited and dec’ining to oome (withont ixinae) can claim, is to be put on an equal footing with one not Invited. If he is providentially absent, and mikes it known to the committee, they should oommnnioate it to the oompany, in or der among other things, that the invited guests present msy know who were to have been their jonored colleagues. Tha report is, that the committee received no communication from Governor Smith in response to tbeir invitation. I happen to know that no each communication made in the presence or hearing of Judge Johnson while at tbe table. “Hoosier” also complains that Jadge John son's speeob on that oocasion wa* j-jane and oommonplaoe Tbia is a mistake. The speech was a magnificent one—every way worthy of the distinguished orator. Jadge Johnson does not and never did belong to the j-juue or 00m- monpiaoe fraternities. But it m ly be inferred that be allnded to the speech as reported by the local of th0Txlzgrim If so, and the oriticism should be considered j net, I bave this to say in extennatioo, that I know of no one who had a better right to be jejane and oommonplaoe than had tho looal at the time and piaoe and un der the circumstance- in whioh he penned the report. I know of bat ods plea to the oontrary, and that is his rsahnesa and temerity at the time and under tbe oiroumatano-s in attempting to write it out at all may ent him nff from all consid erations of olemcnoy; and here I may say en pastant, it the Bar shall give another dinner to whioh tha fonrtb estate shall be invited, I hope it will be nuders'ood that it shall not be expected that the proceedings shall come ont in tbe next morning’s issue of their papers. A good dinner requires time for its digestion, and mins hosts cf the Brown House give good din ners on sit such occasions. Bat I understand, Messrs. Editors, entre nous and tub rosa that the looal did not dis tinctly hear the remuk cf Judge Johnson com plained of, (sitting remote from the speaker) bnt gathered it frem a friend. B) this as it msy, the words as reported were not spoken I hap pen toknnw thalthe words (“by or wi>h" “false promises,”) ware not nsed by Judge Johnson on that ocoasion. Nothing was said by him abont promises of anv sort. Thi. *™ » traro mjtn. “Hoosier” farther complains that a young gentleman from Atlanta then presont toasted. Judge Johnson as a suitable person for onr next Governor. This is true, and was, - j think a fortunate incident of the occasion. It oalled the Jadge to the floor in a second speech,' shorter, and if not bettor, at least more thrilling than the first, and in my opinion, farmoro com plimentary to Gov. Smith than the first was in disparagement, e7en as reported. Jadge John son stated among other things in snb-tance (for I will not attempt to give his exact language,) that he thanked his yonng friend for the com pliment. and his young friends around him for the kind manner the toast had boeu received by them, (it had been heartily cheered by them.) but said it ocuid net be. That he was now an old man, that he had onoe been ambitions, bnt had outlived the passion, and that the des tinies ot Georgia wera and must continue to be in tbe keeping of a younger generation, and, in conclusion, rang ont npon tho audienoe a thsnksgiving to God in a voice whose clarion tones thrilled the nerves of every hearer, that Georgia—his own beloved Georgia—now re deemed and disenthralled, no lenger had need for his services. It is unnecessary for me to remind yonr readers of what we hII remember. How it was the preeminently good fortune of Gov. Smith to play bo very distinguished a role in bringing abont that disentbrallment. The remembrance of tho pilot at the helm, who, through the perilous breakers brings the ship safely snd gallantly into po:t, surely will and ought to outlive aud outweigh tbe minor disap pointments as to who he may have selected to man a brace or fnrl a sail.

Members of the House and the Salary Grab. Special to ths Cincinnati Gazette.) Washikotos, Jane 18.—The following is a complete list of the members of the House of Representatives 2*ho, np to date, have eov- ered their back pay into the Treasury. Quite a number of names of members who have been generally oredited with returning the money do not appear on the books of the Treasury. Tbe number is thirty-two, making with the Senators already telegraphed the total of forty-Bix Con gressmen who have made repayments. Ths members of the Honse are: Barber, of Wiaoonain; Cox, of New York; Crebs, of Illi nois; Cobnrn, of Indians; Colton, of Iowa; Frey, of Maine; Finkelnbnrg, of Missonri; Farwell, of Hlioois; Garfield, of Ohio; Hill, of New Jersey; Halsey, of New Jersey; Hawley, of Oonneotient; Hawley, ot Hlioois; Hall, of Maine ; Holman, of Indiana; Hazleton, of Wis- oonrin; Kerr, of Indiana: Lynoh, cf Maine; UoGreery, of Iowa; Monroe, of Ohio; Mitchell of Wueonain; Ferry, of New York ; Busk, of Wisconsin; Wm. B. Roberts, of New York; Starkweather, of Connectiont; Sessions, of New York; Sawyer, of Wisoonsin; Townsend, of Pennsylvania; Upson, of Ohio; Waldron, of Michigan; Williard, of Vermont; Wheeler, cf New York. Of these 25 are Republicans and 7 Democrats. The House, when the salary bill was passed, was composed of 127 Republicans and 113 Liberals and Democrats. There have been no returns from the Sooth from either Senators or Representatives. None of tbe delegates from the Territories or from the District of Colombia have responded. Maine snd Wisoonsin are the only States where a majority of the Representatives haTe sent back their money. Mr. Peters is tbe only one retain ing it from Maine, snd Mr. Eidridge the only om from Wisoonsin. Only sixteen States bave been heard from, either through Senators or Representatives. The Treasury Department has no record of those Congressmen who are said to have founded or assisted orphan asylums, high schools, colleges, and churches with theta share of the spoils. Home made Bugar and Syrup. A committee appointed to examine certain specimens of sugar made in Alabama and Mis sissippi make a most gratifying report through the Mobile Register.

And in this connection we oannot refrain from saying that from one garden within four miles of Mobile eleven thousand dollars worth of veg etables have been shipped to Western cities since the 1st of March last, and doubtless com paratively large shipments have been made from other gardens. We have seen daily large quantities of fruits and vegetables marked to Chicago, 8t. Louie, Cincinnati and Lnuisrille, aod it is estimated that of potatoes alone folly two thousand barrels have been shipped by om railroads within the last thirty days. TEe “Rebel Gnerilla" Mosby on Southern Monties In General, and Virginia Politics in Particular—ITa Thinks Grant Ought *0be Re-elected Again, aod that lbeSouth will Support Him—He Predicts n Radical Defeat In the Virginia Election—A South ern Groat Party Foreshadowed. We find the following in the Herald of Fri day .- BiamoXD, Ya., June 19, 1873. In an interview on Virginia affairs, the atti tude of the administration thereto and political p rot peels generally, Colonel John L. Mosby says: “The issues that formerly divided the Vir ginia people from the Republican party were those growing out of the reconstruction meas ures. Last year the Virginia people agreed to make no farther opposition to these measures, and to accept all questions growing ont of them as settled. There be’ng no lorg?r any questions then on principles sepsralingttie Virginia peo- pie from General Grant, it beoame a mere mat ter of policy and expediency whether they wonld support him or Horace Greeley. I thonght it was the first opportunity the Sjuthern peo ple had had to be restored to their proper relation and influence with the Federal admin istration. In other words, I said the Southern statesmen ought to avail themselves of the op portunity and support General Grant for re- eleotion, and thereby acquire influence and con trol over his administration. That waa the only way I ssw of displacing the carpet-bag crow that represented tbe government in the South ern States I think that events have demon Btrated that I was right. Gen. Grant has oer- tainly sooorded to me as mcch consideration and influence as any man could have a right to expect. I never have had a conversation with General Grant but that I have been more im pressed with the folly aod infatuated palioy of tho senseless war that has been kept np on his administration. I know it is tbe disposition of General Grant to do everything in his power for the relief of the Southern people if Sonthern politicians will allow him to do it. The men who control the polioy of the conservative party combine with extreme radicals to keep the Southern people arrayed against Gen. Grant As long as this oourse is pursued the carpet bag crew who profess to support the administration get all of tbe federal patronage. This is the snatenanoe, the anpnort, of the cirpet bHg party in the South. Deprived of that, it would die to-morrow. I can’t Bee why it is that after the Sonthern people have accepted as final and irretrievable all the issuta that onoe divided them from Gen. Grant, they can’t now anpport the administration. If they wonld do so the present carpet bag and negro organiza tions wonld disband. I admit, as every South ern man must admit, the gross wrongs and outrages that have been perpetrated npon the Sonthern people. I am no apologist for them; bnt neither parly proposes any atonement or any indemnity for the past. I propose, at least, to give seonrity for the future by an alliance between the Southern people and Gen. Grant’s administration. If the Southern people expeot any relief it must be through Gen- Grant, and they will not got it by keeping np war on him. snd whst I consider an UDjust war. I told Gen. Grant, a few days ago, that the Badioal party of Virginia didn’t want the respectable portion of Virginia to support the udministra- tion, for they knew that as soon as that was done their day would be over. They want to enj-iy a monopoly of the public plunder. The fewer there are in the party in Virginia tho larger the distributive shsro will be.” Of G«n. Grant Ooi. Mo-by says: “I think he is tbe ablest man in America I think he would be more usefnl to the Southern people as a friend than an enemy, as they are trying to make him. I believe be has the kindest feeling towards tbe Southern poople, and enpeoially to wards the Confederate soldiers. I have never heard an expression from him, as much S3 I have aeon of him, indicating that ke had any leas respect for a Confederate than a Union soldier. Grant has all the instincts of tho Boldier.” When asked if he would take an active part in the ensuing S’ate canvass, he Baid: “I have no expectation of doing so. I tun tired of what I have had to do with po'itics, and intend de voting myself to my profession until the noit presidential campaign, when I expect to take the stump in favor of General Grant’s re-eleo tion for the third term, in order to give the Sonthern people tho opportunity of retrieving the blunder they made in the last campaign.” He thought that either Hon. James Lyons or Governor Wise would be most acceptable to the administration as candidate for Governor, and if the people of Virginia wonld eleot either of them it would be the quickost way to bridge over tbo “bloody chasm.” He believed he had •onada tho President more friends by tbe ap pointments made at hia (Mr. Mosby’e) request than all tho radicals wonld have made him in a hundred years, and ho docs not think that any man nominated by the Republican Convention at Lynohbnrg can be elected. Tha interview oonoluied with the following question and answer: Correspondent—The newspapers are charging fhJt Gen. Grant is trying to collect aronnd him prominent Federal and Confederate officers for the purpose of establishing an imperial govern ment or to secure his re-eleotion for tho third term. What is your opinion abont it ? Colonel Mosby—I don’t think that General Grant has any such ambitions designs; bnt if he desired re-eleotion and makes as good a President as I think he will. I’ll support him for a third term. Not only that, I think all the Sonthern people will support him. ELDER HOUSE, Indian Spring, Ga.
