ATLANTA, GEORGIA..
Friday Morning, March 2, 1866.
We preeent our readers this morning
with the first of a series of letters from
Washington. The author is oncof the first
wen in the United States, and has filled
some ot the highest positions within the i
. gift of the people. His name if made:
public would invest his letters with ad>
ditional interest to the Southern people
B. F. B—the “ Bully Boy with a Glass
Eye” whose cabalistic initials is
e rangelv suggestive ot silver spoons and
forks, has got into a difficulty with a Mr.
Hudson of New York, at one time a
Chaplain in Butler’s command. From
the proceedings it appears that B. F. 8.,
had Hudson imprisoned during the war,
upon suspicion that Hudson had written
an article in the New York Herald ar
raigning the “ Bully Boy with a Glass
Eye” for some illegal taking and carry
ing away whilst in a Southern city. He,
3. F. 8., tells Hudson that he lies.—
Hudson proved by Lieut. Davenport
that all the allegations are true, and
that it is B. F. 8., who did the lyinig.—
B. F. 8., also takes occasion to renew
his covert attack upon Lieut Gen.
Grant and all others who fail to appreci
ate bis services at Dutch Gap.
The long expected and elaborately
wrought volume entitled “The Adminis
tration on the Eve of the Rebellion”
by ex President James Buchanan, is now
upon the market. It seems to have at
tracted more notice from the English
press than it has met with in this coun
try. The book is intended to explain
and justify the oblivion that shielded
from view the first officer of the Repub
-1 c immediately on his retirement from
office, and made bis name forgotten by
each party during the contest immedi
ately succeeding. “Old Pub. Func.,”
io this last effort of four years duration,
has endeavored to paint himself as es.
sentially a man of compromise, hoping
still to “make things pleasant” allround.
He of course says as little as possible on
the subject of his rupture with the party
which placed him in power, of his quar
rel with Douglass, and of his other in*,
consisterc e* which opened the flood-gates
of the civil strife which followed.
Gold found near Rome Ga. —The
Courier has seen a specimen of quartz
rock, stained with the oxide of iron, that
contains a large amount of gold. It is
said to be one of the richest specimens
of gold bearing quartz ever seen. It was
found in the neighborhood of the Foun
dry near Rome, and is supposed to have
been dug up while sinking a well a few
years since.
This is not the only gold that has been
found in that vicinity. While Cunning
ham A. Co., were digging a well at their
Flouring Mill a few years since, a vein
of gold bearing quartz was struck and a
negro saved several penny weights of the
precious metal, but it failed to attract the
attention of parties able to make a full
examination aod search, a thorough
rest will now probably soon be made.
Tornado in East Tennessee.— The cit
izens of Knoxville and vicinity were vis
ited by a terrible storm of rain and wind,
unparalleled in that region, last Saturday
morning between four and five o’clock.
The storm burst upon the city like an
avalanche, scattering houses, sheds, roofs
chimneys, fences, etc., in all directions.
There were several dwelling houses
moved from their foundations ten and
twelve feet, and peisons blown high in
the air. The Court House was seriously
damaged. Farmers state that their loss
m stock being killed was very heavy.—
The loss of private parties amounted to
between $4,000 and $5,000.
Murder in Bradley county, East Tenn.
—On Saturday last, about eight miles
south east of Cleveland, a Mr. W- T.
Shelton ’was found murdered, having
been shot three times through the body
aod once through the head. Suspicion
rests upon two men who were seen with
him on Friday, on his way up, who, he
promised to meet at a certain point on
bis way home on Saturday. The men
have not been seen since, and no doubt
they murdered him for his money, as he
was known to have S4OO about his per
son.
Mr. Stephen's Speech.— Most of the
papers in the northern and middle
8 ates have copied the late speech of
Hon. Alex. H. Ssephens, and cordially
endorse its sentiments. The Nashville
and Louisville papers, including the
Journal of the latter place, give it an
a qualified endorstnent. The Press and
T mes, (Nashville,) the Radical organ
hts nothing to say pro or con, nor does
it publish the Bpeech. The reason is
obvious.
The Emperor Napoleon is said to be
greatly elated at bis late success in au
thorship. His first volume “Vie de
Caesar” had a great run. The second
volume will soon be completed. The
final proofs have been printed and the
Emperor is now revising them.
Mobile Cotton Market. — On the 27th
there was some little demand for mid
dling, at 41 to 42 c. Buyers wanted
seven days time on payments. Sellers
would not extend beyond three. This
had effected Ute market slightly.
Some curiosity has been manifested to |
know who Thad. Stevens is. Well, he
is a very old, very weak, and spotted
politician. He gained his first notoriety
while a member of the Pennsylvania
Legislature, many years since. He was
the instigator of what was subsequently
known as the famous “ Buckshot War,”
and figured rather conspicuously in that
shameful contest. He then stood in the
same relation to the people of Pennsyl
vania as that in which he stands i ow to
wards those of the United States. For
a time he reigned over a lawless and rev
olutionary minority, for which he claimed
the supremo authority of legislation. He
was finally overthrown, but not until, in
his terror of popular vengeance, he had
leaped from a window of the State House,
and fled to the shelter of the bushes in
the Capital grounds.
The abolition excitement having
culminated in the foundation of a
party which seemed likely to gain con
trol of the country, Stevens, who had
left his old home and hunted up a new
constituency, allied himself with it, and
again floated into public place and noto
riety. He is now, in his old age, on
| the eve of a second tall. It will be his
last. We should pity the sorrow of a
poor old man, and let him pass on to his
final account with as few execrations as
may be consistent with human patience
and endurance.
Characteristic.— The Tennessee Radi
cals failed to control the grand Union
Convention which assembled in Nash
ville on the 22d ult. Hence, they de
nounced its proceedings. To illustrate
the animus of the Radical faction, the
following anecdote is related and its
truth vouched for:
While Judge Swayne was reading
Washington’s Farewell Address to the
Convention, a well known ultra radical
entered the gallery of the Hous? of Rep
resentatives (in which the Conventim
sat). Astir listening awhile to the sub
lime passages in that immortal docu
ment, he exclaimed: “A d—d rebel
document I Just as I expected !”
The Charleston Courier says that
$122,000 have been subscribed in that
city for the purpose of securing white
laborers for South Carolina. A letter
has been received from a gentleman of
influence in Germany, who declares that
he can persuade thousands of the people
of that country to emigrate.
The Cincinnati Commercial speaks of
“Selma, Geo.” in connection with the
small pox.
There is a town by the name of Selma
in Central Alabama, where the small
pox is said to be raging among the ne
groes. If there is a Selma in Georgia
we have never heard of it.
A bill for the education of Freed
men has been introduced in the Legis
lature of Florida. It proposes to tax
the freedmen to the amount required,
the sum to be paid into the State Trea.®
ury, to be disbursed by the State and
county officers. The Governor endorses
the plan and asks its reference to a
joint committee.
The latest advices from ex-Gov. Harris
of Tennessee, are that he has resigned hie
agency in tho colonization department of
Mexico, and is devoting himself to hard
work, improving his place,building houses
for his family, clearing lands, &c
B®»The Knoxville Whig says nearly
all engaged in the mob that hung the ne
gro who shot Colonel Dyer were discharg
ed Union soldiers; many of whom had
served under Col. Dyer.
Death of Gen. Jackson.— The fo'low
ing dispatch announces the demise of a
great and good man ;
Milledgeville, Feb. 27, 1866.
General Jno. K. Jackson died at two
o’clock, this morning; expect to reach
Augusta, Thursday morning with re
mains. W. S. Jones.
A young squirt in Ohio wrote to a
neighboring druggist to send him some
love powders, which should cause the
lady of his love to return his devotion. —
He was sent a mixture which cleansed his
stomach and probably brought him to his
senses.
Gov. Patton of Alabama has gone to
Washington City. One of the leading
objects of his mission is, probably, to ar
range, if possible for the payment by
the State of the direct tax as-umed by
tho people in tneir present impoverished
condition.
Roberts has resigned the Fenian Pres
idency, and recommends Gen. Sweeney
for the position.
Rents are declining at a rapid rate
in Richmond Va. So say the papers of
that city.
Mr. Robert Cottrell, a wealthy mer
chant of Mobile, died of small pox in
that city, Tuesday last.

Present Crlei
Washington, Feb. 24th, 1866.
It is difficult to describe the agitation
in political circles which has grown up
out of the President’s veto of tho Freed
men’s Bureau bill. It not only exists
here, but it exists all over the North. A
gentleman just from Baltimore says *l ,e
bulletin boards are thronged with multi
tudes, constantly reading the despatches.
Here a thousand rumors are afloat. At
one moment the Radicals, it is said, a-e
plotting an impeachment of the Piesi
dent, on a motion to declare the Presi
dency vacant, as there is no such Sta c as
Tennessee. In the next breath we are
told that the President is noiselessly
massing troops hero, and intends to put
the Southern delegations in their seats by
the strong arm of the military. Then
you hear that men in suspicious ciretttn
stances have been discovered luiking
about the White House, and that there is
a plot on foot to assassinate the Pi eshletit.
There is doubtless immense exaggerations
in these rumors, but they prove one thing,
that the public mnd is uneasy. They
are like the trembling of the earth which
herald an earthquake. People feel instinct
ively that they are on the eve of great strug.
gles, great agitations and great dangers.
Men begin to apprehend that they see
the symptoms of civil war, and inquire
how Grant and Sherman and other lead
ing Generals will go, and what side the
army will take. I am satisfied things
at least for some time to come will not
go beyond a desperate political contest.
The questions at issue between the
Congress and the President will go to
the people for adjudication. And it is
the people of the North alone, whose
votes can now be counted at the electo
ral urns. But yet the cni'cst will be de
cided by the people of the South. Par
adoxical as this may appear, it is nev-r
--! theless true. The great paramount
overruling controversy between the
President and h’s opponents, is wbethei
the people of the South can be trusted
with political power. The Radicals in
sist that they cannot, that the South is
not really loyal to the Union, that the
South will repudiate the national debt,
that the South will not tolerate the citi
zens of the Ncrth among them, that the
freedmen will have no security if aban
doned to the mercies of the South. It
rests therefore with the South by her
own conduct, to settle this controversy.
If the South is wise, and gives no han
dle to the Radicals, the President will
be triumphantly sustained, but if the
South should pursue a different course,
the Radicals will become the masters
of the President and the South. Every
consideration of policy on their own ac
count,and every incentive of gratitude to
the President who has nobly thrown him
self into the breach, should prompt the
South to the gieatesl possible wisdom
in their policy at this time.
The Radicals, by their resolution as
to the status of the Southern States, by a
vote of 102 to 36 in the House ot Reps
resentatives, have resolved that “ the re
bellion has deprived the Southern States
of civil government,” and “that it is
the duty 01 Congress to enable them to
form State governments.” The effect of
this is to consider them territories, and
the governments they would authorize
the South to form would be such as
were founded on universal suffrage, in
cluding the negroes.
Robert J. Walker’s telegraphic dis
patch to the public meeting here lias
more point and pith than all the speeches
made on the occasion. He says Presi
dent Johnsen’s veto “ arrests the over
throw of the States, and the concentra
tion of all power in one consolidated mil
itary despotism. It. prevents the expul
sion of eleven States from the Union,
and the erection of eleven Irelands with
in its limits to be controlled and op.
pressed by military violence.”
The Secretary of the Treasury seems
at last to have gotten his eyes open
about the cotton frauds which have been
perpetrated at the South. The report of
Messrs. Waterson and Cuandler is said to
show an enormous amount of rascality,
embracing a large number of persons. It
is said a commission will take the sub
ject up for thorough investigation. It is
high time, for there has never been a
greater saturnalia of villainy, than has
been carried on by these crusaders
against the cotton of the South.
Seward has made one of his diplomat
ic speeches in support of the President
at the New York meeting. It was
thought universally, that the veto would
explode the Cabinet. But Cabinet min-,
isters of the present time are like the of
fice-holders Mr. Jefferson wrote of
when he said “few die, und none resign.”
It was known that Mr. Seward really
sustained the President’s policy, but Stan
ton, and Speed and Harlan were thought
to be anything else but conservatives
They seem to b j sufficiently conserva
tive in one respect. The preservation of
their portfolios. It is authoritatively
announced that the Cabinet are a unit in

Tlie Status of the Rebel States—
tUliief Justice Chase Overruled
' aud taie President Sustained by
the Supreiue Court.
Ttie Supreme Court of the United
Blates has lecently affirmed the coreect
ness of President- Johnson’s posi
tion in regard to the status of the rebel
States. Ihe point was, whether the
courts, as before the war, would take
up chose cases from said St ites which
hud been laid aside m consequence of
the rebellion; and, the rebellion being
suppressed, the C'omt decided to take
them up, C.iief Justice Uuase alo.ie du
senting. Bo far, therelore, as the judi- i
ciai department of the General Govern
ment is Concerned, frcin the collapse of
the rebellion ti.e Btates involved in it re
sume lhetr toimer relations as members
of the Union. Thus the head of the
executive department, by the highest le
gal authority in the land, the c -urt of
last resort, is borne out in his judgment
t iat secession is a nullity, that the re
bellion did not carry the offending I
States out of the Union, but that in at
tempting to get out by force of arms
‘•they placed themselves in a condition
where their vitality was impaired, not
extinguished—their lunctiOus suspend
ed, but not destroyed.”
This is the position of Piesident
Johnson and the Bupreme Court —of the
executive and judicial branches of the
Government. But what is the
position oi Congiess, the legislative de
partment?
