Death of a free Government.
The following is from a speech de
livered by Hon. D. W. Voorhees, of
Indiana:
It is a meloncholly spectacle io bfe*
hold a free Government die. The
world, it is true, is filled with evi
dences of decay. All nature speaks
the voice c f dissolution, and the high-
way of history aDd of life is strewn
with the wrecks which time, the
great despoiler, has made. But the
hope of the future, bright visions of
reviving glory, are nowhere denied to
the heart of man; save as he gazes oh
liie downfall of legal liBfetty; He lis
tens sorrowfully to the autumn winds
as they sigh through dismantled for.
rests, blit he knows that their breath
will be soft and vernal in the spring,
and that the dead flowers and wither
ed loliage will blossom and bloom
again. He sees the sky overcast with
the angry frown of the tempest, but
he knows that (he suu will re-appear,
and the emblazonry of God cannot
perish. Man himself, ibis strange
connecting link between dost ftnd
Deity, tollers wearily, onward under
the weight of years and pain, towards
the tomb, bat now briefly his life lin
gers around the dismal spot. It iff
filled with tears and grief, and the
willow and the cypress gather aronnd
it with their loving but mournful em
brace. And is this all ? Not so. If
a man die shall he not live again ?
Beyond the gfrstvfc; in tlnvdistant
Aidenr, hope provides an elysiuin of
the soul, where the mortal assumes
immortality, and lifeLecontes an end
less splendor. Bat where, Sir, in all
the dreary regions of the past, filled
with convulsions, wars and crimes,
can you point Jrotlr lihgbr to the tomb
of a free commonwealth on which the
angels of resurrection have ever de
scended, or from whose sepulchre thg
stone of despotism lias been rolled
away? Where, in what age and in
what clime, have the reins of cons'i.
tutional freedom renewed their yonth
and gamed their lost estate? By
whosestrong grip liafl the dead corpse
of the republic once fallen, ever been
raised ? The merciful- Maker, who
walked upen the waters and bade the
winds be still, left no ordained apos
tle with power to wrench apart the
jaws of national death, and release
the victim of despotism. The wail of
the heart-broken over the dfead is not
so sad to me.as the realization of this
fact. But all History, with a loftd un
broken voice, proclaims it, and the
evidence of what the past has been
is conclusive to my mind what the
future will be. Wherever in the do-
maiil of human conduct a people once
possegsted bf libfttty have fluriendeitd
those great gifts bf God at Ibe com
mand of usurper, they have ne7er .af
terwards proven themselves worthy
to regain their fdirfeited treasure.
Tbe Bullock in ItisGldty.
SOUND THE HUGAG*—BEAT THE FOil-TOX !
—BLOW TUE TTZZV-FVZZV.
The magnetic telegraph brings us the
important intelligence from Atlanta that
the Bullock’s special train with its pre-
cions freight, incinding Solon Robinson
of the New York Tribune, John W. For
ney; of his “two papers, both daily,”
and author of tbe Forrest-jamisen letter,
besides innumerable slanders upon the
South and her people, arrived yesterday
in grand pomp and spread-eagle display
at Atlanta, drawn by the locomotive
“'Gov. bidtodk,” all covered over with
flags and doggerel mottoes. By tbis
time the trinmphal car of the Bullock
has arrived in Macon, and has doubtless
produced a great sensation.
Our people ftbould be prond that they
hafe a Bullock in the Executive chair
(whether fair or foul) who is so capable
of representing the dignity of the State
and dispensing their hospitality. There
is something so exquisitely modest and
dignified in the whole alfair that it can
not fail to challenge the admiration of
tbe civilized world.
There will be many bollocks and oth-
er rare animals on exhibition- at the Fair
bnt the Bullock has succeeded in mak
ing himself the central figure of tbe
demonstration, and though no prize nlay
be awarded him, he will doubtless carry
off the honors from more worthy Cattle.

Pulpit Pro4ogie*
There is much good sense in the fol
lowing remarks by Theodore Cnyler:
Now let m* say plainly that I for on*
grow more distrustful every day of these
pulpit prodogies, and of the spirit thei
lusts after them. No man can be a
power in the pulpit unless he possesses
a good brain, a godly heart, e deep
knowledge of tbe Bible a?d tho human
heart, and a glowing love of souls. And
the very qualities sneh ministers of
Christ will be most likely to aim at sim
plicity of speech, and spiritual unction
from the Holy One, hhd a Hglft'con
formity in every utterance to the inspir
ed word of God. He will endeavor ik
speak not the words which man’s wis
dom teacheth. When be is called to en-
bonnter what brother Bulkley calls a
rationalistic philosophic auditor, he wfll
be likely to rely on the tremendous en
ginery of tbfe truth of God os it is re^
vealed in the inspired-word. Instead of
meeting the intellectual skeptic as a
skeptic, he will meet him as a guilty,
per'shiflg siduer: be Will present to hiht
his own heart, his own need Of a Savior-
and the perfect adaptation of the Aivior
to meet his eoul’s necessities ftdthlhg
suits a caviling skeptic better thy^fi to
entice an ambassador off into the slip
pery regions of metaphisics;.* on that,
ground the rationalist jp'at borne. A
minister of Christ is st home only when
bis feet are planted firmly on the Bock
of Ages, sad he is wielding vigorously
the svrord of the Spirit, which is the
word of God.
The Ku-Klux After the Cotton
Thieves.-—A bad state of affairs exists
in Sumter District, South Carolina. The
cotton crop having been nearly all picked
out the negroes are Stealing it' in the
seed and selling it to the carpet-baggers
aud scalawags who keep cross-road
grocery Stores. A correspondent of the . -
Charleston News says: .
The farifiefa, unable Id pfdtfctil Mteifr
wide-extended fields at night, and sur
rounded by canning and expert thieves;
have remonstrated with merchafite and
traders for aiding, howevet txniutentiot 1
ally, these rogues, by pnrfehssiiig teed
cotton at all; and in most ififitfinces this
appeal Hits beeii rfetfeived ttntl ponded
to in the right spirit. Batchers Are y«i
some who are unwilling to give np the/
profits of a traffic, which, though a
source of great Wrong, is not yet pro--
hibited by law. Sbliie linknown persons,
banded together, arid supposed to be the
Kn Klnx, have token tbe naatte* into
their own hands. Several stores, after
previous warning to their qwuers, have .
been burnt, Some who were warned
have agreed to stop trading in ibis line.
The Columbus Snft, Speakift'g of the'
Northern guests at the Macon Fair;-,
utters the sentiments of nine-tenth* of:
the respectable white people ot Georgia,
when it says:
“Among tbe list we recognife tfrb
names of several worthy and distin
guished gentlemen, men wfabffi Geor
gians would be glad to see and weleomA-
at any and all tiroes. It is unfortunate,
that they come in such questionable
shape and in tiWUlpanjrbf xnch execrable
miscreants tat Bullock, Halbert and
others. We trust that they will under
stand that all true Georgians repudiate
that portion of the programme which
committed; them to oompany which nmel
have been mortifying to their self-
respect. r .
