Ble- pbeus publishes a card In the latter paper cf yesterday, from whloh we extract this: Tbo readers of the Constltotion will be in formed elsewhere in its Irene of to-day of an ar- rengemont bj which the AtlnotA Daily and Weakly Bon has become merged in, and con solidated with tbe Oonstilation, and by which the undersigned baabeoome connected with this old and letilimr Democratic jonrnal in tbe South, as rorre-pondiDg editor. Die connec tion, however, will relate only to the political department of tbla paper, and only to the ex- UlI of presenting bis views on all political question^ to the pnblio an often as be thinks prope r over bis own initials, as he has hereto fore done In the Ban. Toma is a man in Rockdale oonnty who has COO bnsbels of ear oom for sale. He hasn't borrowed any money this year, either. Tn local of the Oolnmbns Ban is responsible for tbe statement that there are 1800 members of tbe Baptist church in Colnmbcs, and Us scross-tbe-river suburb, Girard—800 whites and 1000 blacks. Tnz same paper baa these Items: Ora Bctsxiob Cr.car.—It has been in session thirty Are days, at an average coat to the Bute and ccnnty of $90 per day; total oost of tbe session, $3,150. It will be oontlnned several dr.ys of this week, commencing Xnosday. Exnrnro Urourrs.—Several of onr promt nent cotton men believe we will get a thousand bale* tbo remainder of the season, making a total for tbo year of 58,357, an excess of 17,707 bales over 1871-72. Honk Ison roa nut Bavaxwaii and Mzoirnn Uailboai).—Fifteen cars T rail for tho Sevan nab and Memphis railroad have passed here In the last three days.

Grading la almost completed to Gkildersbnrg, on Belma, Rome and Dalton railroad. • Ws alncorely regret to learn that Mrs Goeteb- ins, wife of tbe Rev. G. T. Goetchins, pastor of the rresbyterian Cbnrob at Miliedgevilie, died list Batnrdsy in that place. She was daughter of Mr. A. M. Scndder, of Athena. Tux Tbomasville Times sums np the crop outlook in that county with tho remark that “corn is splendid, and growing so fast yon can . boar it crack," and that the fight between the cotton and gears is lively, with tho chanocs in favor of tho former, Tnz Bran Cocjrrr Fan.—The Monroe Adver tiser of yesterday, says tho Bibb Oonnty Fair held at Maoon last Thursday and Friday, was a grand success. The attendance was astonish ingly large, and the extensive and splendid va riety of articles exhibited reflaots groat credit upon the people of that oonnty. This reunion • and comparison of the joint prodaota of mind and labor, will necessarily excito a spirit of no ble rivalry and emulation, which will resnlt ben eflelally to all. Anirnmo.—A Osrtersville correspondent of Ihe Atlanta Herald writes (bat tbo ohargo of criminal intimaoy with a young girl made some months ainoe agtlnal a Methodist preacher named Fletcher Weema of that oonnty was iitely Investigated by a Masonio lodge at Coal ville and that Weems was acquitted. Tho case will, however, undergo legal examination. Tnz Atlanta Herald baa alrnck a blow at the “ Georgia Press Association." It has actually withdrawn from tbo Association because the rules of tbit body prohibit exchange by its members with “ patent ontsldea,” end the Her- nld'a prond and soaring spirit refuses to bo fet' terod by any suoh restrictions. Let ns hope tbe Press Association will survive tbe blow. Tna Bzsult cr Tnr Gaazn Tarn, in Eaton- ton.—An Eatontou correspondent of tbo Savan nah News writing of the resnlt of the (rial of Greer for killing Middlebrooks, bis brother-in- law, in Jasper connly, says : I understand that Jndgo Hopkins, in passing tbo aentenoo displayed a good deal of surprise, to say tbo least uf it, at tho verdict. It la said that be remarked that O'Neal, who was bnngln Atlanta recently, wsa not guilty of an offence no bilaaM a, (list nt hrsar, ale, eta Hoad* ministered, to tbo prisoner, tbe extromo penalty of the law. Twenty years, bard labor In tho penitentiary. In tbe street I have beard a good deal of dlacnsalon, since tbo trial fa over. It mnst ho borne in mind that there are two clauses of lawyers in thta country; ono of which con sists of thoso who have atndlod tbo old English masters of tbo common law, ns well na tho pro ductions of snch intellcotnal giants as Marshall, Kent, Btory, tt id omni genus; who havo de voted a good part of their lives to the bnstneea of interpreting legislative nets. Individuals of tho other cIukh, however, disdaining snch slow, • plodding methods, have, while indastriomly pursuing other avocaUona, without study and without labor, as to law, arrived at n point far beyond that to which any common mind can at- tain with the most dillgont end constant re- search. Tbo amount of legal loro acquired by some men, who spend most of tboir livos sitting nnder Ibo spreading China tree, at street cor ners, is, to tbo nnlnfotmcd, perfectly astonish ing. A great many people appear to bo, like Jndgo Hopkins, disappointed at tbe verdict In faot, to far as I have observed, tbo feeling is almost universal. They expected a verdict of mnrder. Tnz down passenger train on tbo Romo rail way ran of tbo track at Baas' Ferry Monday afternoon, as wo loarn from a telegram in tbo Atlanta Herald of yoaterday. Conductor Todds' arm was broken, Mrr_ Bones, of Angnsta, sllghly bnrt, and several other passengers were badly braised. A lady passoDgcr's band was also broken. Tnz Atlanta Constitution of yoaterday baa a telegram from Chattanooga annonneing two deaths from cholera thcro on Sanday night, snd two moro on Monday morning. Three other oaaea wero reported. Mu. Hznbt \V. Bacxos, of tbe Jobnaton Light Infantry, Savannah, baa boen appointed Adjm taut of tbe First Volunteer Regiment of Geor gia, composed of Savannah companies. Tna News tells this story t Tna MomatN Atmcan Set.vast.—A lady friend informed na, that n oolored girl applied to her for Ibo position of oook, bearing that abe needed one of those valuable auxiliaries to bonae keeping. Tbe girl answered tbe pur pose, was engaged, and tho wages decided npon. The "new" oook then requested to bo shown tbe room abe was to occnpy. Tbo lady piloted her to tbs basement and pointed ont a very comfortable apartment, thaegh not a commo dious one. Tho oolored damsel viewed tbe premises oarefnlly, and then shlkiDg ber bead dubiously said, if that was tbo only room that oonld be given ber, she didfi't think abe conld stay. Tbe IsJy, In surprise, inquired why I when tbe accomplished cook replied, tbs', tbe room was not largo enongh to aeoommodato ber “piano and sowing machine,” and abe left. This is an actnal occurrence; as wo have it from tbe lady herself. Atlanta bat made another wondeifnl discov ery t a Congress water well nlmoat in the heart of tbe city.

A Vienna correspondent of a New York pa per writes a cheering report of the grand break down of the Vienna conspiracy to shave tbe world by exorbitant charges for accommoda tions: Tbe disappointment of tbe hotel keepers at tbe non arrival of strangers is very great Tbe hotel at which we are stopping, a new and elegantly furnished establishment, has not to-day thirty rooms occupied, and these at rates leas than one-third what they charged at tbe opening. There is not, it is :-a:d, as many strangers now in Urn city as there was daring tbo past winter. Rooms which were held at two hundred florina per month can now be bad at forty, and many amnsiDg aneo - dotes are told by tbe residents of tbe attempts at extortion that were praotioed. There were parties here who went aronnd the city and rented all the rooms they conld get at bigb rates for six months, and now find them to be dead slock on their bands. It was these speo nlatora who caused thoso who bad rooms to let to imagine that a half dozen rooms would yield them a fortune, and that they must bold them for Eogliab, Americans or Russians. A Germnn applying for a room was insnltcd, and almost ordered ont of (be boose, os they wero all held for the rich foreigners who were to come bero and settlor tbeir money with a lav- iah band. Those that did come wero frightened away, and they have spread consternation among tbe tourists all over England. At tbe present time rooms can be had at about doable tbo ordinary rates, and tho restaurants have ail robtrned to old prioes, except those on the exposition grounds. These latter are, however, doing poorly, as visitors merely take a light Innob and retnrn to tbo oity for tbeir dinners. It costs ns two dollars oach per day for onr rooms at the hotel, and abont one dollar and a half for onr meals at Ihe restaurants. We, however, have tbe good fortnne to have resi dent friends bero who know where and how to proonro the boat tbat tbo city affords at fair prices, and wo are faring better and more satis factorily than has been onr experience in any other European city. The meals fnrnisbed at tbe hotels aro not as good, and tbe prices charged aro moro than double. It is, however, Ibongbt the rnsb of tonrists to Vienna will commence abont tbe middlo of June, and snch is tbo ex pectation of tbe hotel keepers, and they will pnt the tariff on na as soon as they dare, and make it as bigb as possible. German tonrists will not permit themselves to bo gouged, and heuoe even now there are fow of the better class hotels that will take them if they propose to remsin for moro than a week or ten days. Tims there are two sots of rates oven now In ail the hotels. A German will not eon soDt to pay more than two florins per day for bis room, and many of them not more than one. “THE flPiniT OF THE W4MJTH.” A Frank Expression of ibo Opinions Of n Northern Kepnbllcan—Tbe Kail anal lbs Jtemedy. Correspondence of tbe Baeton Advertiser | Will you permit a few words on tbe subject of your article entitled “The Spirit of the South,” and the eenes of extracts from Rich mond newroaper.- ? Three months passed in tbe South daring this winter and spring entitle me to speak with some confidence of the fiitna- tian there, and I may add that my own obser vations and opinions have been shared and confirmed by hundreds of (honghtfal people from the North, ont of the twenty-five thon-and who have visted Florida and tbe South this last winter. These persons, intelligent men and women from all parts of onr country, have been largely Republican in politics, anxious for tbe education and elevation of tbe oolored people, and moat tenacions of what are called tbe ra- snlla of the war. I do not care to offer yonr readers any Sontbside views of “copperhead” oommenta, nor even the political fault findings of tbe Democracy. I would have this question understood at tbe North as it has been seen by Republicans—and Republicans only. It is a tedious matter to disease Ihe mesrares adopted for the reconstruction of tbe Sontb, or to apportion the blame npon ex-President John son or the Booth, or the failnre to adopt the wise recommendations of Governor Andrew's farewell address. Whatsoever the cense of the meddle which now exists, the resnlt is simply horrible. In onr desire tn protect the colored people from a real or supponed hostility of their former masters we have given the snilerage to them all—moat of them hopelessly ignorant; we have organized them into political leagues; elevated them into positions of high trust, for which they are deplorably nnsnited ; and then banded them over in their helplessness to the moat oorrnpt and incompetent set of shysters, called carpet-baggers, from the North, of which it is possible to conceive. I have yet to learn of a single man who has gone from the North to better bis political fertnnea (who is “on the make," as they themselves tell yon,) who has any real, earnest desire to help the colored peo ple or the community in which be lives. One of these carpet-bag politicians, in reply to a qnestion of mine npon investment, remarked tbat he “wasn't fool enongh to invest in the Sooth; when be bad made his pile he should leave tho d—d oonoern.” It ia impossible for Northern people to un derstand the terrible corruption at tbe South, which is still kept alive by a eareless or designed nso of tbe patronage and political infiaence at Washington. We have organized society at the Sooth npside down. Ignoranoe and crime over- ride intelligence and decency. The great edn- cational, financial, commercial, charitablo and political interests of the States are ontrnsted to onr common field hands of the Sonlh ard un principled adventurers from the North! Gan yon word or that these people desire to free themselves of Ibis tyranny and corruption ? Such a stale of things is oontrary to nature, God's laws, and all tne teachings and the wis dom of mankind. Snch governments are tho | W. B. HOPE most grotorqne travesties; they command no respect from tbe black or white; they are a scandal and disgrace to them and to ns. And does it help ns of the North in any way, to have a lot of men, the natural product of this condi tion of thing, sent into tbo hails of Oongress to legislate for as, there to become the tools of bad men, trad ready to combine with virions elements from tho North and West?

It may soem singular that tho colored man shonld go, as be invariably doe*, to the native whites for advice in the care of his family, his money, and nil his temporal concerns, except his politics.

Gradually sad surely theso oppressed peoplo are fioding ont, amidtt tbeir weary search for trne friends, that tbo politi cians who have settled among them “on the mako ” are not ihe wisest and best of guides. Tbero is no hostility—at least the writer has never seen any—between tho former masters and their former slaves. The blacks go to these men for advice; they even, in many instances, support their old masters <jr mistresses who havo been stripped of their all by the war.
