Brother Bussell, In regard to the agricultural and home Interests, but our opinion is that the white people of Georgia have been “letting politics alone” too much al ready. If a man was afflicted with a cancer or terribly dangerous disease, wdhld a good physician advise him to “let it alone,” because there was a prob ability of its running its course for a season ? If a man had two houses in dose proximity to each other and one was on fire, who would advise him to let both alone, because one was bound to bum? Wo hold Radicalism is a huge £*230? striking at the very Vitals of our ttal.lt i. 0» 1w»<K» Anty of every good oitixen to work un- «oeanngty for its removal, in order that •our country may be saved from wreck *ad min. The pillars of strength and beauty in our national government, erected by the wisdom and patriotism dour forefathers, are, one by one, be ing destroyed and laid waste by the fires of fanaticism j and what lover of his ’"’TSountry can stand idly by, waiting and wishing till the last vestige of Repnbh- «an government is swept away, and the homing winds of anarchy scatter these hopes, like dost and ashes over the des olated desert of a fallen nation? Tyranny, despotism and political min stare ns in the face on every hand —they stalk abroad, and are. mustering favorably respecting the operations of our farmers. The chief difficulties in the way of onr agriculturists since the have been the want of hope m the future on the part of onr people general ly, and the disordered state of labor. Onr oppressed and impoverished people have had no heart to work, and the ne gro, constantly attracted by some glit tering phantasm presented by designing office seekers, wonld not work, believing he could live without it Bat several months having intervened since Con gress has perpetrated any new outrage upon the South, there seems to be much more buoyancy and hope among all classes of onr population. The negro is learning, by experience, that freedom does not exempt him from the neces- uity of labor; and many of them, to their credit be it said, are becoming disgusted with the false promises of their pretended friends. From we can see, they have begun this year with a determination to do faith ful service, and the result is witness ed in the greatly improved appear ance of our farming operations. Within the last few weeks we have visited several portions of this and adjoining counties, and the scene iresented to us has been unusually encouraging. The men, boys an negroes of Southwestern Georgia are now bard at work, plowing, planting, repairing and putting up new fences, and, in many places, clearing new ground. Com is now ftp, and is growing finely; oats were never better, (nor have we ever seen so large a breadth of land sowed in oais)and sugar cane and potatoes have pretty generally been planted. The weather is delightful, Spring having visited us unmistakably, and the impatient woods are rapidly affirming a mantle of green and gold. Mu Tift’s Peroration.—The Hon, Mr Tift, who has replied to a recent in famous attack of Bullock on the people of Georgia, and who has kindly furnish ed us with a copy of his letter, thus pe rorates concerning the creature who signs himself Governor of Georgia: In closing this review of Governor Bullock’s letter, I confess with sorrow the humiliation I feel in the necessity -which makes it my duty as a Represen tative, to defend the people and State of Georgia against the slanders and ma chinations of her Governor. Whatever may have been the motives which dic tate this course, instead of acting as the guardian and defender of her rights, her honor, and her interests, as duty and manhood required, he has been foremost among her dofamers, and the chief ene my of her peace and prosperity. The order and comparative prosperity which now exist in Georgia are due to the wisdom, moderation, and forbear ance of her pcolpe. They believe that truth and justice will yet prevail, and their rights as a State in the Union bo recognized and respected. Very respect fully your obedient servant, Nelson Tift. Java.

Red Hot.—The following card ap peared in the Macon Telegraph on the 19th, and addressed to R. B. Hall, a Democratic member of the Georgia As sembly, by his father, M. M, Hall: Macon, Ga., March 19th, 1869. R. B. Hall: -Sir—I understand that you are to be in Macon at half-past one o’clock to-morrow. I see from the papers that you voted for the fifteenth amend ment to the Constitution. With the feet of the Radical Congress upon your neck, yon have, with obedience and hu mility, voted for a law that will degrade you and yours forever. Yon have disgraced both yonr grand fathers’ names, whose bones now lie in their graves—have disgraoed yourself, and brought shamo upon your father and mother. . . j hope you will not presume to Visit my houso as long as I live. I liavo two infant boys—thirteen months old—they may act as reprehen- sibly as you have; but rather than see them do so, I would follow them to their graves.

The Contrast.—There is not a negress the South, who will work, that is not amply compensated for her labor, which is required of her only in the day time, and then not more than eight or ten hours are thus employed. While is the case with negro wo men here, at the North—in New York— we see from an exchange, delicate, intel ligent while women “get $1 50 a dozen for making shirts; $1 25 for making shirts of second quality, and 75 cents for those of third quality.” How these poor A creatures can subsist upon such pittance it is difficult to imagine.
