Wednesday Morning, May 1, 1872. KEAKOKI'VG FROM FALSE PEBJIIIEA A writer in the Atlanta Sun of the 24th instant, over the signature of “Wire Grass,” is correct in many of his positions respecting the disposition of the land scrip. We agree with him that the fund for the endowment of an Agricultural College is still un der the control of the Legislature. By the express conditions of the grant by Congress, the Legislature of each State are made the guardians of the trust, and they cannot delegate their con trol over it to Governor Smith, or to the faculty of Franklin College, or to anyone else. But “ Wire Grass” is mistaken when he says the fund must all be given to one institution. The grant says “at least one College,” which implies that it may be given to more than one ; and in fact in some States it has been divided ; for in stance, in Massachusetts and Virginia, and we believe in others. But the main argument of “ Wire Grass” and the Sun is predicated upon a false po sition, viz: that it was imperative for Gov. Smith to make some disposition of the fund at that time or it would hare been Inst. This we positively and em phatically deny. The Athens junto brseiged Gov. Smith about the last of March, and the time would expire on the 2d of July. So there was over three months left for them to act in ; within that time there is every proba bility that Congress will extend the time, and if they do not, the Governor could convene the Legislature a tew days before the time to which they bad adjourned without additional ex pense. So this plea of necessity of act ing at that time has no foundation in fact, and we charge directly that the Athens junto pressed Gov. Smith to decide then, for fear the time would be extended, and the Legislature would have the control of it, in which event they had very little hope of success. WHAT THE COCXTRT THINK* OF IT- 1 he Atlanta Constitution and Sun are in the daily habit of publishing what the city editors think of the donation of the Agricultural Scrip to Franklin College. As an offset we have collect ed below a small portion ;>f the re marks of that portion of the press which reflects the feelings of the Ag ricultural interest of the State, The editors of the city papers know about as m ers and planters on this subject as the Faculty of Franklin College do about farming. The editors of the city news papers are nearly ab graduates from Franklin College and they reflect the feelings and opinions of Athens. Be low cur readers will see what the farmers think. Let the members of the Legislature take due notice and govern themselves accordingly. t rom the Mariet a Journal, 19th.] The press ami :iie people are not backward in ex ercising their •troedom of speech" in denouncing the recent action of Go'.ernor Smith in firing the land scrip to Franklin College. A traveling agent states, “the intelligent people are almost to a man atr.ir.st it,and wi I instruct their rep resentatives to it vestig.-ite and undo the matter.” The Dahlonega Signal expresses its unqualified dis approbation. The Middle Georgian sa7s : While we approve of r, 11 the previous actions of Governor Smith, we can not but disapprove of this. The Griffin Star says : The Legislature can overhaul this matter. Let eve ry section speak out. The voice of the people Is the voice of God. The Daily News says: Wrong is tcrong, and we denounce it because it is w,ong. The Sparta Times and Planter ably protests against the action. BE-ESTABI.INHMENT OF NI.ATEKV. When the people of the South are traduced by lying slanderers it is uot amiss to appeal to historical record. They are now accused of desiring to re-enslave the negro—a falsehood that coulu only originate from some source as meau as the lie itself is vile. The Lumpkin Telegraph says: The Land Scrip has been placed under the jurisdic- ionof the University. We shall expect to hear trom our personal friends, Colonel McKinley and Gen. Phil lips, who were warm advocates, the former for Mii- ledgeville, the latter for Marietta. The Gainesville Esgle says ; Everyone knows, or ought to know, that, by tnrn ingthe scrip over to the State UDivetsity, and making the Agricultural Colh ge an appendage of the Univer sity, just enough of theoretical Agriculture will be taught to enable the Faculty to retain the fund, while the great body of those the tund was designed to ben efit— those who hold the plow handles—the wool hat- boys— will be as good as excluded from all participa tion in its benefits. The Greensboro Herald says : No one can mistakethe leading and the beneficent de sign ot Congress in conferring this generous bounty upon the States. The donation was intended to reach out a helping hand to the laboring masses. To estab lish an Industrial College side by side with the Stale University, to be more or less subordinate to it, would embarrass both ; that must have been a very superfi cial observation that has not discovered that caile en ters into all the pursuits and ramifications of human society. TheTalbottou Standard says: Whether an Agricultural College, tacked on to a purely literary institution can be made a success and carry out the purposes and objects ot the donation, is au experiment we await to be solved. The Albany News says : Unjust to the people, at variance with their express ed wishes, and disadvantageous to the University. HO, FOR CINCINNATI! Every man who still hopes for the salvation of the country and the regen eration of Republican liberty on this continent, must feel interested in the Cincinnati Convention. It now bids fair to be a great success. Any thing, or,any man to defeat General Grant say we. This may be the last time the people of these United States will have to help themselves. The man who votes for Gen. Grant for our next President, in our opinion, votes for a President for life, and for a military despotism. If Gen. Grant should be re-elected for four years more, and make as rapid strides towards despot ism as he has for the last three years, it will be too late for the people to struggle for liberty; their chains will already be riveted. Look at the con dition of unfortunate South Carolina. At the bidding of a petty military tv- rant, with shoulder straps, a Lieuten ant of the army, good peaceful law- abiding men, are torn from their homes, and on the information of some infa mous negro whom he may have offend ed, they are placed in a loathsome jail, infested with contagion and death, and there kept for months without being allowed the formality of a trial, and these things are of daily occurrence under Grant’s tyranny. Was any Eastern tyranny ever worse? God speed the Cincinnati Convention il it can prevent the re-election of General Grant. We certainly can’t be worst ed, and we may do much better. We do not see how the Cincinnati Convention can do any harm, either to the country or to the Democratic par ty. The democrats wilt hold their own convention in July. Should the Cincinnati Convention nominate a man every way acceptab’e to them, they may Dominate the same candi dates ; if not they will nominate a candidate of their own, and in one compact line, from Maine to Texas, charge home upon the disjointed and conflicting hosts of the enemy. Some men are fearful that August Belmont is about to sell the Democratic party to the enemy. This story was pro bably started by the enemy to create division in ©ur ranks. Belmont may possibly sell himself, but neither he nor any other man can transfer the great Democratic party to the ene- myT' NEW MAGAZINES*.

The Presidential Campaign, We never advocated the new de parture; we have never advocated passivism ; and we will never advo cate principles that come to us in sheep’s clothing—but in reality ema nate from the vilest of all hellborn thievery and corruptions. We were ?n New York during the campaign of 1S6S and knew that the Demociatic party was sold by its then leaders in that Presidential election. Is the Democracy of to-day wiser than it was in ’OS ? We shall see. The Savannah News fired a centre shot when it said “the bondholders who fear (but falsely) the success of the Democrats—the Rothschilds and heir Agent—the great monopolies which now enjoy an immunity to plunder the people will all contribute to the grand scheme” of deceiving the democracy. The people of the North are fed and wheedled by the lies of bondholders, officeholders, and thieves, into a belief that the people of the Soulh are rebellious repudia- tionists, and that calumnious lie in connection with lying ku klux stories, goes far to control the masses of the North. This superlative lie that Southerners are rebellious repudiatiou- ists is the stronghold of the arch fiends who are plotting the destruc tion of the last vestiges of justice and berty left in this land, whilst osten sibly the maleficent beings are philan thropists. Thievishness is the ruling power of these besotted days, for pec ulation is lauded and not condemned, and everywhere the people are plun dered blindly, believing their political leaders to be truthful and honest, for they will not separate the man from the position. It is time for the people of this country, if they wish to escape the horrors of political chaos, to look at the men who proclaim themselves to be their leaders and see if they are all that they claim to be. The masses of the people are too apt to be led away by the show of position, and looking at the office they forget the man, who at the best has but human nature, and that coupled with deprivity. Then with thousands of officeholders who hold their positions by virtue of his authority and patronage, and are con stantly sounding his praise, it is no wonder that the people are misled and deceived. The democratic party has lain asleep over the financial power of the “Rad ical Centralists” controlled as it is by plunderers and rogues, and the leaders of the true constitutional democracy while they fail to undeceive the people, arc being deceived and betrayed themselves. We who are not blinded by the lies and usurpations of the Centralists, are yet tricked by their spies in our midst, and we should, without fail, destroy the pretensions of those warring against us. Why do not the true constitutional leading democrats assemble in some one ot the Northern central towns, and, undeceiving the people, select a candidate worthy of support ? What right has Belmont, or Rothschild, to issue his pronouncia- mento to the democratic party. We have naught against Horatio Seymour, but loud was the laugh of the Cen tralists over his nomination in 1S6S, and industriously they spread the news over the North that he had been in sane. We say beware of the Cincinnati Convention, and we say to all consti tutional democrats and true lovers of their country, shake off your apathy, for it is the death of your country. We are for action and the right of constitutional government. Any pol icy outside of this is bred from dan ger and will end in disaster. For God’ssake let every true lover of 1 is country avoid this snare called political inaction. t Three things ought to be cultivated —good books, good friends, and good humor, the sunshine of the soul. “ I apprehend that there is au immense difference between those who hold slaves and such as introduce them from Africa. The fi.st is not au evil of our own making, and which the wisest heads and best hearts have not as yet discovered any practicable plan to re lieve ns of; but the other is a voluntary affair, with- out the shadow of an excuse to palliate it, and as sin cerely depieeated in one part of the Union as the oili er. And it is beli?ved that for the greater part, per haps nine-tent'is of the supposed American vessels en gaged in this traffic, except those presumed to be owned in Baltimore, belong to the non-siavebolding States." We find appended to that article re marks made by Judge Jackson of Vir ginia : “ Judge Jackson, of the Western Circuit of Virginia, in a late eltarge to the Grand Jury, said: ‘The poor African is stimulated by them (those who carry on the slave trade) to the perpetration of the blackest crimes, in order that he may furnish fresh subjects for the in satiable cupidity of his employes. The disgrace and criminality of this traffic have not beer sufficient to deter some of those claiming the protection of the American flag and the rights of citizenship front en gaging in it. I is, however, gratifying to believe that the citizens of Virginia, where domestic slavery is authorized, reg; rding its existence aj an evil which they have not been able to devise the means of abol ishing ; hold in proper abhorrence every effort to in crease the great moral and politicat calamity ■, and they have not been partakers of the crimes so often imputed to citizens of other States where slavery does not exist, and i- held in the greatest detestation. It is your duty, nevertheless, to enquire, and diligently’en quire, whether any such offenders are within this dis trict.’ ’’ There we have what has always been the spirit of the Southern people, who feel that in the destruction of slavery they have been relieved of a burden ; but they do not feel under any obligation to the thieves, plunder ers and descendants of the vile negro traders, who pharisaically thank God that freeing the Southern slaves was the result of their loud-mouthed sanc timoniousness. We rejoice at the freedom of those who were once our slaves, but we de ny to-day the “ God-given merit” of establishing that freedom, claimed by those who are but despotic assassins. If the marauding and murderous ex pedition of a parcel of thieves and robbers has accidentally achieved a good result, they need not think that they will be credited with the deed, and it is because the Southern people can distinguish between true merit and hell-born phariseeism, that such a spite is made manifest by those who are plundering them. Those miserable marauding and ly ing thieves have despoiled the South ever since the war with a display of sanctimony (while stealing) truly dis gusting to all real lovers of liberty; and all the time, while pretending to have the welfare of the blacks at heart they have endeavored to embitter them against the whites, and in a measure succeedingso far as the whites being forced to defend themselves; and then those miserable assassins of liberty raise the cry of Ku Klux, and desecrate the halls of justice. So far from designing to re-establish slavery the Southern people, oppose it, and speaking for them and ourselves we say that we desire to give and see given to the negroes, for their im provement, every privilege compati ble with their circumstances. We desire to see them, and will aid them, to progress in.education as far as their capacity will allow, and we shall insist that all educational advan tages be given them to which they are legally entitled. We wish t® see the black race developed as the black race, and to accomplish that, we will accord all to them that they can just ly claim. The maleficent swindlers having de ceived the negroes, and misled a few whites, created a discord that has en abled them to reap an immense har vest, and they now raise the cry that “the Southeiners wish to re-establish slavery,” hoping by that falsehood to agitate the negroes and alarm the Northern people, thus gaining another four years of plunder. There are true men in the Northern States who are true lovers of their country, and to them we will address a few closing remarks that contain a warning, potent to the wise. The Southern people, under the systematic attacks made upon their labor system, and the taxes, in connec tion with other ways in which they are plundered, and have been ever since the war, compelled in many sec tions to fly from home to escape mili tary persecutions, instituted by plun derers, are rapidly becoming beggars— aye, beggars; and instead of talking about re-enslaving the negro, or repu diating the national debt, one may hear discussed a plan proposing the formation of a large white man’s par ty North and South, that proposes the equal division of -all property, bonds, money, lands, and all wealth. The Southern people are beginning to think that they had better meet it at once, and not be bled to death gradu ally by a slow species of confiscation. There were those in the South ready for that, when out and out confiscation had its rampant pleaders in Washing ton just after the war, and the thous ands to support it are not, and were not wanting in the North. And we repeat, in spite of all doubt, there are not wanting ambitious revolutionists North or South, t,o lead and favor this immense design, while the demon of imperialism is gloating over the pros pect of that coming storm. The South has nothiug to lose by such a struggle—poverty and poverty only, stares her in the face. No hopes, no bright future; numbers of her wisest sons deemed but outcasts in the land. Why, when such is her condi tion should she care. Vainly has she bowed to her captives; coward-like they rain their blows the heavier. People of the North, if you have in you aught left of manhood, join the true constitutional lovers of your coun try, while 4>ere is yet time to save it. For the Federal Union. THE EVILS OF DEBT. This load of debt is hard to bear, And is a fruitful source of care. And to a man of seus’tive heart It bringeth agony and smart. The anguish of it doth destroy Man's energy, and health, and joy. And causetli him to pine away, In his distress trom day to day. It turns his honor into shame. And robbetli him of his good name; It grinds the manhood of them all That go in debt, both great and small. It maketh rnan a very slave, His earnings he can never save j All that he earns is clearly lost In paying usury and cost. Yea! Oft unable to repair His fortune, he in sad despair Doth drown his sorrows in the bowl, And damn his body and his soul! Then guard against this subtle snare— This load of debt—this load of care— Pay down for everything you get, And never—never go m debt. J. Irwiutoh, Ga., April 25,1872. C. B. The Eclectic Magazine of Foreign Literature for May, is a most excellent number of this superior monthly jour nal. It contains a handsome engrav ing, with short biographical sketch of Hamilton Fish, the present Secretary of State in Gen. Grant’s Cabinet. Every article in the work is reada ble and full of interesting information, from the lengthy sketch of Scotland’s Ayrshire poet, who sung so sweetly and feelingly with a soul open to all the glories of Nature, to the varieties in Art and Science at its close. Especially recommendable to South ern readers is the trans-Atlantic view of the character of Gen. R. E. Lee, in which a full mead of praise is ren dered to the exalted character of the great commander. A very curious article, entitled, “A voyage to the Sun,” gives a minute account of a journey taken Jan. 9, 1872, from LonJon to the source of light. The journey was very r^pid through thousands of wonderful con stellations hitherto unrevealed in the infinite complexity of the star-depths. The majesty of silence reigning in space, where mighty worlds, glittering suns, flaming comets, and splendid meteors, speed their unerring course in the universe, was startling to the trav eller, who terms it the black silence. This silence became the roar of a thous and storms as the sun was approached revealing his amazing complex glory of white light, with the Kalardescopic corruscations of orange and gold, changing ever into splendors too vivid and glowing for human admiration to render justice of description. Whether this journey was taken through the medium of telescopic or spectorscopic power, or spiritualistic agency the ingenious reader is left to discover. The subject must be read to be appreciated. ‘Modern manners’ embodies a just criticism upon the progress visible in thfe social fabric of Britain, and fully applicable to our own development in society. We confess that we do not admire the free and easy modesty of Yankee land that is characterizing a few Southern journals, and causing them, when it is indulged in, to be unpleas antly pert. We have seen in some papers min ute descriptions of the appearance and dresses, Ac., of young ladies at balls and parties, calling each one by name. The latter being done, we sup pose, to show how gallant the writer is, knowing such a number of the fair ones as he does. We do not believe that the true Southern girl approves of this kind of conduct. Nor do we believe that true ladies will be found to uphold it any where. In the first place, to say the least of it, it is indecorous; and in the second place, it breeds an extrava gance that none of our people can af ford to stand ; for it is a natural con sequence that all should wish to excel in point of dress, when their appear ance, Ac., will be publicly commented upon through the papers. We are in no hurry to adopt the depraved taste of Yankee land, and we unhesitatingly condemn the wanton thoughtlessness of those who can go so far as to forget the lessons taught them of Southern propriety by their mothers. We see marriages to be, announced and commented upon weeks before the day appointed for the ceremony, as though some public show was to come off’. Surely there is time enough to pub lish the news of a marriage after it takes place, and the parties certainly have enough sense in all cases to noti fy their friends and the parson in time tor it without newspapers volunteer ing to do so for them. These Yankee innovations are ex ceedingly disgusting to all who respect true gentility, and we hope to see this Yankee way ot doing meet with the contempt it so richiy deserves. Haw Wf Had U fee FhjsirkrI Who does not remember the time when spring purgation was considered indispensable to sum mer health f No matter for wry faces, the inev itable salts and senna, rhubarb, or calomel and jalap, most be administered. These “spring med icines," the youngsters wete told, were to keep them bale and hearty daring the snmmer. We all know now that this was a falacy ; that new vigor, not depletion, is what is required at the commence' ment of the summer solstice. As a preparation for the enervating effects of oppressive snmmer weather, a course of Hostetler’s Stomach Bitters is highly expedient' This famous vegetable pre paration has three prominent propel ties: It ren ovates, purifies, and regulates all the functions of the body. It is composed exclusively of pure veg etable productions, via : the essential principle of Monongahela Rye, and the most efficacious tonic and alterative roots, harks, snd gums known >o medical uotauists. Hence, it is an absolutely safe madfrine. and no tincture of the Pharmacopoeia can compare with it either in parity, or in the va riety of its objects, and its comprehensive results. Happily for mankind, the theory that it was nec essary to prostrate a patient in order to cure him, is forever exploded, and the true philosophical doctrine, that vigor is the great antagonist of dis ease, has taken its place. Hostetler's Bitters is an invigorant, and hence it is the proper medicine for the feeble at this most trying season of the year. Be aure that you obtain the genuine article, as there are innumerable vile imitations in the mar ket' Look to the ornamental stamp, the engraved label, and th e name blown iDto the glass.

The functional action of any organ or portion of the system is possible only under the condition of change. The blood continually washes each organ—brain or muscle, gland or nerve—with its life-giving flood, sweeping away the dead, worn-out particles and replacing them with new particles. Death thus starts side by side with life ; and side by side, as neeespary conditions the one to the other, they press forward to the common goal of both. The notion that the vary- rying functions of life are but the varying mani festations and outworkings of a mysterious entity known as the vital principle, ia now exploded.— Those varying functions ate now viewed as the simple effects ot intimate molecular changes in the organs, just as the motions of the steam enr gine are viewed as the effects of the expansion of el astic vapor in the boiler and cylinder. Indeed very probabiy, if a man had first met with steam- engines in nature, he would have explained their movements by supposing the existence of a vital principle or something similar. Now Dr. Kisch's Bitters is a preparation compounded in accor dance with the above Uteiv discovered principles It stimulates molecular charges. It also stimu lates alimentation, and thus insures an abundant supply of blood for the formation of new tissues to take the room of those that molecular change has displaced as useless. eow im. The “Deg Days’* and their Danger. At this season of the year, the blood is apt to become impure; the appetite poor : the skin sal low ; the body enfeebled : the system relaxed, making it susceptible to attacks of Chills and Fe ver, Rheumatism, eruptions of the skin and the development of the effects of the injudicious use of Calomel. All this trouble may be avoided by the use of a few bottles of Dr. Tutt’s Sarsaparilla and Queen’s Delight. It is harmless in its effects, but a powerful enemy to disease Try it, and yen will find it a friend in need.
