THE WEEKLY OOgSHTUnOJALIST. WEDNESDAY MORNING, JAN. 13, 1870 (From the New York Freeman's Journal. Edwin M. Stanton. A. third one of the murderers of poor Mrs. Surratt has gone, unannointed and nn shnven, to nls last awful account. Pres ton King, who repelled the daughter of Mrs. Surratt from the Executive Chamber of Andrew Johnson, who, drunk or sober, knowing or not knowing, what he had done, had signed the death-warrant of that innocent woman, went, with the weight of a mill stone round his neck, and flung him self into the deep. That was very pagan. But there was something robust about its villainy. We will omit mention of the il legitimate origin commonly attributed to Preston King, in accounting for how he came to be so much of a human animal as he was, in “ tying a mill stone round his neck and casting himself into the deeps of the sea.” Some other of the murderers of the poor, innocent woman, Mrs. Surratt, killed him self, or died suddenly or horribly, out West. We do not keep jail records, and don’t want to. The third one of poor Mrs. Surratt’s murderers that has come to an untimely end is Edwin M. Stanton. This Stanton was once a lawyer, as that term is easily accepted, ont on “ Yaller Creek on the confines of Pennsylvania and Ohio. Old Judge John son, then local Judge, has said that “ Stan ton was such a coward that he had a big boy to go with him from the court house to his tavern, for fear of the dogs bitiug him.” This early cowardice of his explains his truculent ferocity when the most stupid passions of the people raised him, as the expression of their madness, to a seat in Lincoln’s Cabinet. We never met him but once. It was in 1860, the year that we seriously impaired our health, in striviug to “ save the old Union,” by the election of Douglas, (on the wise platform agreed on, between Democrats North and South, at Cincinnati, in 1850.) We approached him, then, to plead for that wise economy that would have left every organized community free to accept or re ject the holding of negroes as slaves. He repulsed us, for not holding the extreme and secession notions of the late Mr. Yancey. Nothing short of that could satisfy him. We knew him to be a man of much brute force, and therefore of influence among the unthinking. After our conference, we re turned to our friends, saying, “ Stanton is not a reasoning animal, he is a beast!" And a beast he was, as the pro-slavery ally of James Buchanan, and of Jere Black, against all the intelligent lovers of the old Union, who strove to elect Stephen A. Douglas—not for admiration of the man— but because he represented the true senti ment of the country. The South was be trayed into opposing these propositions of ours ; and there they are! We do not wish to insist on this. But this Ohio and Pennsylvania Stanton was too good a friend of the South to even listen to us, in 1860, wishing to plead the true cause of the Union. Such men as Pendleton, of Ohio, in active political life, had the courage to oppose the madness of Southern extremists. But this Stanton— a Northern man? by birth and lineage, like Ben Butler, and Dan Dickinson, and John A. Dix, and Lyman Treinain, and so many others—who rolled up their eyes at us, as little if auy better than Abolitionists, in 1860, turned their coats the moment that 'power, and patronage, and pdf, and plunder, had passed from Buchanan to Lincoln. Embarked in a career the reverse of all his principle, if he ever had any, it is not strange if Stanton studied, and tried to ape, the role of a Danton, or a Marat. His is an atrocious and a cowardly career, ruled by savage passions, and by ignoble revenges. Let a demoralized community pay what hollow and heartless “ honors ” to him it pleases, the cold finger of history will point to him as a wretch, and a disgrace to the human race. He was the cold blooded mur derer of the Union soldiers who perished at Andersonvllle, when the Confederate troops were themselves without medicine, and even without food. He was the one that refused to treat for an exchange of prisoners—act ing on his foolish notions of IB6o,—that “ one Southerner was equal to five North erners,” and that, so, no economical ex change could be made. He, thir Stanton, suddenly stricken dead, on the morning of the 24th of December, is one of the guiltiest ones, also, in the murder of poor Mrs. Surratt. Tic has gone. Yes! We have it in our heart to pray for him, if we could imagine it could help him. Take warning! you whisky-drinking Joe Holt, of Kentucky! Tou, also, were cited before the Judgment seat, by Mrs. Surratt. Take warning, you canting, snivelling, false pietist, Bingham, of Ohio ! You, too, as Ben Butler well said, “ hanged an in nocent woman!” Remember that Mrs. Surratt has cited you before a tribunal where false swearing, however cunningly devised, will avail nothing. And take you warning, Andrew Johnson ■ —who gloried in being a “ plebeian”—and iu not having risen above it, with all yonr opportunities. Stanton and Joe Holt may have made yon drank, and kept you drunk, so that yon did not know what you did, when you signed the death warrant of the poor widow, Mrs. Surratt—an innocent woman. Take heed, Mr. Andrew Johnson. What is Reconstruction Worth?— Georgia, reconstructed Georgia—Georgia, that by a solemn act of Congress of June 25th, 1868, was declared “ entitled and ad mitted to representation in Congress as a State of the Union, is now a military dis trict, made such by an order issued yester day from the White House. This is Geor gia’s Christmas gift. This is the thing that this man who cries “ Let us have peace,” does on Christmas eve, the eve that ushers in an era of peace on earth and good will. Could not Mr. Grant have waited ? There is no Governor iu the Union that would permit a felon to be hanged In Christmas week, and here is “ Let us have peace,” outlawing a whole noble and honest com munity on the evening of that very day when Truth and Mercy dawned upon the world. This is a foul wrong. The solemn pledge of Congress is broken and we must say that so gross a perfidy shoics U» word is as little to be trusted as the pledge of a common hated.—Galveston News. Freshet in the Eimbto River.— The Orangeburg (8. C.) News says that there has been a great rise In the Edtsto. The whole swamp Is under water for three-qaar'ers of t mile from the river bank. Mr. J. P. Har ley’s dam has given way, and the water has overflowed It In several places. The bridges are all belly damaged, though none of them are entirely gone.

SUKNK& FIELD FOB THB PRESIDENCY COLORADO TO BE ADMITTED—TWO MOKE M*W ENGLAND SENATORS— PRINTED CIR CULARS—GBOB6IA AND THE RADICAL f akfort of major general hallkck.

It will be found iu direct antago- U \ S ™t. W^b ''bat °f General Terry, upon which was pretendedly based the necessity of the expulsion of that State. General t report bears elate November 6, 1869. I quote: Inspection aud other reports, however, represent it to be entirely tranquil, except in certain districts of Georgia and North Carolina, where there has been some disor dprs requiring military interference, the civil authorities being uuwllliug or unable to enforce the laws for the protection of life and property. ‘ It is not easy at the present time to de termine upon the extent aud character of these alleged disorders ; but official investi gations have generally proved the reports to be either unfounded or greatly ex aggerated. 3 “ After a careful examination of all the evidence I have been able to collect from official reports and the statements of officers and citizens, unbiased by partisan feelings, 1 am forced to the conclusion that the amount of crime committed in the several States of the division is very little greater than before the rebellion, and certainly no greater than was reasonably to be expected at the close of an embittered and prolonged civil war, when large numbers of lawless and desperate characters, both at the North and in the South, were turned loose upon society without any legitimate means of support. Certain districts of country may, and probably do, form exceptions to this general remark; but even of these excep tional cases very few have any partisan character or political significance. Those who murder and rob do so simply as mur derers and robbers, influenced by the motives which ordinarily incite men to commit these crimes. One of the worst desperadoes in Kentucky served in the Union army during the war ; but he and ms band now rob and mnnier rebels and loyalists alike, as mav best suit their pur poses, at one time claiming to be Ku Klux, and at another to be anti-Ku Klux. Al though there may be special organizations of outlaws, in particular localities, under the name of Kn Klux, I am of the opinion that no such general organization now ex ists in the Southern States. It is probable, however, that outlaws not unfivqnently assume this name in order to intimidate the weak and credulous, especially when cal culated to increase their owu importance. “In regard to the interference of military officers, in local difficulties under the pleas of maintaining peace and good order, I think that no such military interference should be permitted, except on the requisi tion of the Governor of a State, and by order of the President, as provided by law. Tfie principal occupation of the. troops, in cer tain localities, Ims been in assisting revenue officers to execute the revenue laws. It is very natural that these officers should call for the assistance of troops whenever they cam get it, for by: this means they avoid danger and trouble, and increase their own emoluments at the expense of military approprii 'ions." X. I From tha < oiumbuß Bun, 31*t. Meeting of the Executive Committee, Among the panaceas suggested for onr present troubled condition, the Augusta Chronicle and Sentinel makes the following: “ There is uot sufficient time to call a convention of the Democratic party previ ous to the meeting of the Legislature. It is very important that so.-.ie line of policy be speedily adopted by the party in view of the early session of the Geneeral Assem bly. The State press is not agreed upon this great question. The advice given and the pians )■ oposed are so conflicting that injury to the State and people must follow unless these differences can be harmonized. We, therefore, respectfuljy suggest that the Chairman of the State Executive Com mittee call that body together at Atlanta on Tuesday, the 4th take coun sel and suggest a line of action to i>e pur sued by the party in the present emergency. We would further suggest that the leading minds of the State—men who in the post have had the confidence of the people—be invited to meet the committee and confer with them. Among tiiose who the people would like to hear from we name Gov. H. G. Johnson, Hon. B. H. Hill, Mr. Steph ens. General Toomb«, Col. Judge Nesbit. Judge Irwin, General Wolford, Colonel Lewi* Tumliu, Judge H. R. Jackson, Gener al A. R. Lawton, General Benning, Charles J. Munnerlyn, Nelson Tift, J. H. Christy, Judge Augustus Reese, P. W. Alexander, Judge Wm. M. Reese, Lfnton Stephens, Colonel A. H. Kenan, Judge I. L. Harris and other leaders of th" pest.” We are not prepared to endorse the above call in the first place, it is .ot certain that the Executive Committee have any tiling to do with the business in hand.— Thinly business left to them is to settle the time and place for holding 'he next Democratic State Convention. Ordinarily, we should not object to the meeting of that body, and its consideration of thd issues hefore us. But it most be borne in mind that several of the committee have devel oped very croct-ety ideas on the situation ; others have known to be in strong affilia tion with Bullock and his gang of conspl ■raters. It is belleyed that one of the mem bers of the committee is in his pay and ser vice. It, would not do to develop party policy in the presence of leaky vessels. The suggestion as to the assembling of the distinguished gentlemen named, meets our hearty approbation, and we are pleased to know that proftmulonul buffiirss will r• 'I some of those named, and others no less true and Inflnei tlul, to Atlanta about the time of th* assembling of tho Legisla ture, * New Hank id M.- on.—The Central Georgia Hanking 'iompanv wi-ntlutoopera tion In Moomi yusuirday, with John K.

Singular Coincidence On Fridav night last, a lady gave birth to twins—a boy and girl. Tne girl was born at ten minutes to 11, December 81st, 1869, and half-past 12 o’clock, January Ist. 1870. J Serious Explosion.— We learn that the engine Choctaw, on the State Railroad, ex ploded yesterday afternoon about 8 o’clock, one mile this side of Dalton. The fireman and wood-passer were killed instantly, and the engineer, Mr. Ellsworth, was mortally wounded. The State Road.— Foster Blodgett en tered upon the discharge of the duties of superintendent of the State Road Satur day ; A. L. Harris became Master of Trans portation, the office of Supervisor being merged with that position; W. H. Stal lings, Treasurer; James Mnllen, Master Machinist. We learn that'a good many of the sub-officers have tendered their resig nation. Balloon Ascension—Thrilling Ad venture of Dr. Albert Hape.—Not withstanding the character of the weather Saturday afternoon, the balloon-arose at 20 minutes to 4 o’clock. It went up with great rapidity to the height of about a mile, when, owing to some defect, the balloon collapsed. W ith great presence of mind, Dr. Hape drew the cords tightly together, thus doubling the ends of the balloou to gether and preventing the too rapid escape of the gas rem doing. The balloon de scended rapidly, and struck in a briar patch about two and a half miles from the city, near the Marietta road. The Doctor received several bruises and scratches on the head, face and arms, but no serious in jury. Prof. King did not go up with him. The cause of the collapse of the balloon we did not learn. Under the circumstances, the escape of Dr. Hape is truly fortunate. Parties throughout the city saw the balloon rise up and go off gracefully, then suddenly collapse and desceud. Every one feared that the daring aerial navigator was killed. Hundreds ran down the distillery branch for a mile or so to see if they conld find him. There were several thousand people on Marietta street to witness the ascen sion. Homicide. —Last night, about 9 o’clock, Mr. John Downing, barkeeper at the At lanta beer garden, Marietta street, was shot and instantly killed by an unknown party, who succeeded in making his escape. Mules.-r— During the month of December, 4,200 head of moles were received here, and during the year 1809, 26,770 head were fed here. Prices average about SIBO per head. Taking SIBO as a fair average, theu the sum paid out for these mules will reach the sum of $4,816,800. A Handsome Testimonial. —The four railroads centreing in this city presented, on New Year’s Day, a handsome gold watch to Policeman Tim 0. Murphy, for efficient services. The watch cost about $l5O, and is a fitting tribute of esteem to a worthy officer. The watch bears an in scription on the inside: “ Presented by the Riilroads Centreing in Atlanta to Police man Tim C. Murphy, for efficient services. January 1, 1870.” Tub State Road Officers. —Governor Bullock has proclaimed.Blodgett Superin tendent, of the State Road, and that indi vidual has entered upon the duties of that position. Governor Bullock has by pro clamation appointed Mr. Istac P. Hurra, son of Senator John Harris, of Newtou county, Treasurer. This is a change from the original slate, as Stallings hits becu here for several days. It is thought that the appointment is due to the suggestion of Senator John Harris, a candidate for President of the Senate. Senator Harris came up yesterday and said that his son had not yet accepted tbe position. A. L. Harris is filling Major Walker’s seat as Waster of Transportation, though not offi cially proclaimed. The offices of Master of Transportation and .Supervisor have been merged together. Harris is large enough to divide into two more officers. James Mullen takes Flynn’s position as Master Machinist, though not proc'aimed. All was qniet at the State depot yesterday. Federal Troops Protecting Bullock. —A correspondent of the Atlanta Consti'u tvm, writing from Dalton, under date of the 81st ultimo, the day on which Bullock returned to what he now doubtless consid ers his kingdom, relates that a lieutenant, in command of about twenty United States soldiers, under the pretext of being engaged in hnnting deserters, arrived in that town, and induced a Justice of the Peace, Squire L-—, to is ** a civil process for the ar rest of said deserters. We let the corres pondent relate the sequel, which reveals a high state of nervousness in certain quar ters : Squire L placed the entire civil po lice of the city at his -Tlsposal, and the lieutenant, chuckling over the success of his ingenious blind, receded to Kieth Station, where he arrested three Federal soldiers, whom he had himself put off the train that morning, with orders to remain until he returned and arrested them. They were brought back to town under guard. The deserter tale had now exploded. For the idea of employ ng a civil officer to ar rest a military deserter, when the military was on the spot, was an idea so supremely ridiculous that the most credulous could not take it down. But the Pc utenant and his men -emafneU in blissful ignorance, and were, I suppose, secretly compliment ing themselves on the approved style in which they bad hoaxed the benighted rebs. This farce beieg exploded, the curious among us prnpioycd ‘hemselves In watch ing the r ovements of the souad, with a view to learn what iraportau' matter had rendered necessary so nice-(?) a piece of finesse. Soon their labor was rewarded, for on the arrival of the East Tennessee train the deserter hunting squad was seen to rush frantically to it; and when they had scoured the country on both sid> s to sre that there whs “nary” Ku Flux lurking roufld, forthwith descended His Most Royal Majes ty, King Cow-ox l, accompanied by His Royal Highness, Grand Duke Bluster Fod get, and others of His Maiesty’s Court, and was r-ceived within the Invincible ranks of he aforesaid deserter hunting squad; wl- reupon His Majesty drew a mighty sigh of relief, and all of the court ‘lgln-d In uniNou—for mivaMs ditto, they bail ac tually traveled through twelve miles of 'Georgia territory unqoartered, end had not 'wen Ku Kinged t and now, sals behind tbs bayo’tnia ot tin* deserter hunters, ami there by nmissteil from tha caresses of Me loving sublscts, Hla Msjss'v and oourt wowdel to Atlanta, where I oppose lie has luce arrived ami Manmed hla throne.
