THE SEMI-WEEKLY EXPRESS J.VS. WATT HARRIS and SAM’L H. SMITH Editors and Proprietors. CARTEKgVIUfc, OA.. MCTT. 17t*i 1871.” 'StQm Mr. C. B. Blacker, a special in ternal revenue assessor for the State of Georgia, reports that he has just returned to Atlanta, Ga., from For syth, Hall, Dawson and Lumpkin counties, bringing fourteen prisoners, 800 gallons of peach and apple bran dy, and corn whisky, and seven mules and two wagons, all captured from ! illicit distillers.— Washington Patriot. Blacker fails to “report” that he ar rested and placed in irons a peaceful j and respectable citizen of the State because he refused to permit Blacker and his squad of soldiery to pass over his toll-bridge free of charge. He fail ed, also, to “report” that he ‘captured’ 1 the same gentleman’s wagon and team ! as “spoils of war,” and took them off j to Atlanta. These are facts which i Blacker ought not to overlook in mak ing his reports at Washington. [Chronicle fc Sentinel. If Mr. Blacker fails to make re port of the outrages which he has committed against peaceable, law-abid ing citizens of this State, wholly unau thorized by the commission which ho holds, cannot the Representative of the District in which these high-hand ed transactions took place see to it, that he is properly dealt with at the proper department ? And if nothing can be effected in.this way, can he not bring the matter before Congress, so 4hat, the country at least, may know T what oppressions are visited upon good and harmless citizens by these emb-officials of the government ? It is to conduct like this, that much of the disturbance of the country is to be at tributed, and opposition to the gov ernment justly kept alive. We say then, to Mr. Price, look into this mat ter, get up all the facts, and see to it, that your constituents are redressed for the wrongs perpetrated upon them by their agent, and let the people of the North know how it is that good and law-abiding citizens of this coun try are dragged in irons to prison, by petty officials who lord it, at will, ovor our people, supported by the bayonets of Grant. Wo are informed that one of these gentlemen, is as pi ous a man as the Up country affords, and is wholly innocent of any viola tion of law; and we cannot believe that any people in aDy portion of this country will sustain any party or gov ernment, which upholds any such lawless invaders of the rights of their fellow-citizens. See to* it, Mr. Price. We know that parties wrongfully arrested and otherwise mal-treated have their remedy in Court against tresspassers upon iheir rights, and may carry their cases before juries for redress, but what we desire is, that these matters be brought to the con sideration of Congress itself, so that the whole country may know the evils under which we labor. Newspaper notices are set down as one-sided, false party statements, and the peo ple of the North are left in ignorance of the actual condition of things at the South. If this were done we believe that public sentiment there would ef fect a more wholesome administration at Washington. We have now Rep resentatives and Senators, who can properly present our wrongs, and we suggest the propriety of their doing so in this, and every other case. That we have not over-stated the violations of law in this particular case, we refer our readers to the sub joined Charge of Judge Erskii e to the Grand Jury, at the District Court, now in session at Atlanta: Iu regard to the action of certain parties in Hall, Forsyth and Lumpkin counties, the Judge handled them “with gloves off.” He said, in sub stance: “I feel it to be my duty—a most painful duty—as the j dicial of ficer of the government of the United States for the State of Georgia, to mention to you an act Os great °wrong —if, indeed, it is not deserving the still graver name of outbade -which Ims been'done to a citizen of the United States and a resident of this Judicial District. I am informed by credible authority that, some two or three weeks ago, certain persons acting in the ser vice of the Revenue Department, while in the lawful duty of searching for and arresting violators of the revenue laws, became transgressors of the stat uary laws of Georgia. Coming to a toll bridge in one of the upper coun ties. they offered to the man in charge some written or printed paper culled scrip to pay for the toil. The man took it, and they were with their piis oueis about to cross, when the owner of the bridge came up and refused to let them pass unless they paid the toll iu money. The owner had a gun in his hand—nearly all the other side were likewise armed. No haul words it appears passed be tween them. They burst open or beat down the gate, seized the owner of the bridge, plaev and handcuffs upon him, tied a rope around his waist, refused to allow him to speak to his family or get a change of cloths, aud in this con dition marched him to this city and charged him before W. B Smith, Uni ted States Commissioner, with the of fense of resisting officers of the Gov ernment in the lawful discharge of their duties. The parties showed by their own testimony ifa the examina tion, substantially the foregoing state c-f facts. Hon. J. D. Pope, United St at os District Attorney, who was present and conducted the case for the Government, when he heard the testi mony, with laudable indignation, mov ed fch*> Commissioner to discharge the accused, and be was immediately re leased. I have been informed that one of the Deputy United States Marshals was preeettt when these acts were done. I also learn from the District attorney and Major Smyth, United States Mar shal, that there was no evidence what ever before the Commissioner implica ting him in the transaction. But to return. If persons will have the te merity to violate the criminal laws of the United States, the Constitution and the acts of Congress provide the mode of executing process us of the United States Courts—they have the power and will not be backward in en forcing them. Then I say let no man dare take the laws into his own hand, for where this has been permitted, (as has been the case often of late -in this and neighboring States by bands of outlaws) anarchy and confusion reign. We trust that all of our citizens in | the upper counties and elsewhere will 1 be careful to observe all the revenue j laws of the United States, as well as ' all others, so that there may be no j pretext for visits from officers with ! soldiers. [Communicated. Emigration- Since the war, Cherokee Georgia has lost many of her valuable citizens, who have sought themselves out homes in the West; some desirous of settling themselves on land which they could buy cheaper than Georgia land, with the intention of earning from the soil an honest livelihood, others seek ing a place to locate for life in one of the professions. From communication with many who have thus sought the world’s el dorado, we are grieved to heur that all is not as well with them as we would like to have it—not, by any means, as they expected it to be. We regret their condition, and sincerely hope that they, through the blessing of a kind Providence, may be enabled to better that condition at an early day. While we regret their emigration from our midst, and their condition now, we more deeply regret that there ever existed cause to force many of them away from the land of their Wrth ! We have considered, and do now think, that the controling cause which necessitated the emigration of the greater number of them, was their in ability to purchase a home in Georgia. In a great many instances, that inabil ity was pecuniary; they were not only not able to buy a home, but could not secure rent lands upon which they could make enough to support a fami ly, after paying the customary rents of the country. Unable to buy! because they did not have money enough to take a whole plantation! Unable to rent! because the owners of land, in a great many instances, had rather rent land to the more ignorant and depend ent classes of society; a class' easier controlled, easier satisfied with the terms of a rental contract! Now, land owners of Georgia! to you, we put the direct question: Are you satisfied that your policy towards these emigrants has enhanced your interest— that it has advanced the in terest and welfare of your country ? Suppose you had sold off a few hun dred acres of your vast plantation, and settled these good and true men near by you as neighbors, then invested the money arising from the sale of that laud, in building and fitting up ten ant houses on the balance of your land, for rent, or sale, or invested it wisely in railroad or city bonds—some thing that would pay vou more than land now lying idle, or even now, be ing annually lessened in value, on ac count of the loose system of agricul ture employed by those who are tending it for you ? You would not only have interest-bearing bonds, pay ing you an annuity, out of which you might, at some day, educate your chil dren, but you would have a native Georgian as a neighbor, whose wife and and tough ter, and whose sons might new be enjoying the society of those they have known and loved siuce childhood., instead of enduring the hardships of a life in t.Ue West among strangers, and who now, ought to be enjoying the fruits of your civilized so ciety, convenient to ycur churches and your schools. Talk no more of inviting a stream of emigrants to pour in, with capital to develop your mineral inten sts, and build up manufactories in your midst, until you have taken steps to stem the tide of emigration that annually flows out. In our opinion, the quickest and most certain way to do this, is to re dneo your plantations* to just land enough to make a good living upon, under your present system of agricul ture; then cultivate that land upon the basis of the very latest improved system of labor; make manures and enrich the soil until an acre will pro duce thjpe times as much as it does now, and you cannot only live, but have a surplus, annually, to add to your capital already invested. Don’t cry there is no purchaser ! but do with your land as you would with a horse, after the resolve is made to sell; you hunt up the man to buy; sell upon reasonable terms, and while you may be careful in selecting a neighbor, don’t be too anxious to get the whole amount of the purchase money in cash, for Southern men are not able, many of them, to pay cash, and if you de mand it they, of course, must go where they can buy either cheaper or upon time. Let this great and good work com mence, and in a few years our section of the State will be densely populated. Then land will be worth more, corn more, wheat more; and thousands of dollars now invested iu land in Chero kee Georgia, which is hardly paying the owners thereof, 2\ per cent, cn the investment, will be taken, and if not invested in Bonds, be ready to com bine and confederate in the grand and glorious work of digging the iron from the bowels of our noble hills, moulding and making it useful to the world, buildiug Cotton Factories to vie with similar enterprises, either do mestic or Foreign. We want capital! capital] capital! is the cry of everybody, and the truth of the matter is simply, there is capital enough in land in Georgia, and especially in Cherokee Georgia, that is pacing little or nothing to its holders that would supply the demand for the much needed article, if Cherokee Geor gia simply had courage to lay their hands uponit. Reduce your plantation. Stem the constant tide of emigration, and by offering to sell upon reasonable terms, invite immigration to locate in one of the most favored portions of the world. Bartow. MORE CAPTURES! A Government Team Drowned in Pickens County. Four Prisoners Escaped ! A party under Lieut’s Bradley and Blacker, made an arrest of eight men for illicit distilling iu Murray or some adjoining county, and also eleven stills. On their way returning to the ci.y, four of the prisoners escaped, and an entire team of four mules was drown ed in Talking Rock Creek, iu Pickens count}'. A horse tied to the wagon was also drowned. The recent rains which had swollen this stream deciev ed the party as to its depth and tin y yentured into it with the result stated. The raiders have been doing an ex tensive business fill £>ver the State, and continue to run a hea?y schedule, in seizing men, whiskey, property} and using extraordinary efforts in suppress ing a violation of this great United States law. It is well that people should be law-abiding, and equally im portant that the officers whose duty it is to enforce law or execute its man dates, should be faithful, prudent, just and efficient. Atlanta Sun. From the Atlanta Sun. Meridian, Mississippi. We reached this new city of the pine-woods just as day, after having rolled back the storm-clouds, was lift ing up the curtains of night. The newspapers’ aud passengers’ accounts of excitement on account of the recent tragedy, had prepared me for the worst. But all appeared serene. A word, however, with either white or black, satisfied me that though now all was probably serene, a volcano had but re cently thrown up its seething lava up on the young city. You have had tel egraphic reports of this matter, so I will therefore say but little. To sum matters up, from inquiries made of all parties, it seems that the negroes have really been intolerant—insolent is not strong enough—in Meridian for the past two years. They have not yield ed an inch. One gentleman told me men have been frequently stopped on the streets at night by negroes with pistol in hand. He said it was worth a man’s life to go two squares after nine o’clock at night. Right here I remem bered, about six years ago, I went gome six squares to the telegraph of fice in said city after that hour. I felt my hair curl up a little, and my hat weDt flying from me—all of which I took to be the effect of wind. Had I known then what I do now, I fear I should have had very curly hair, if in deed any scalp left. But joking aside, and making allow ance for all excitement, the good peo ple of Meridian have had much to bear from insolent darkies. Negroes in Mis sissippi are very different, in villages, from negroes in Georgia. I don’t know but what with the difference of surroundings we would gain by swap ping Bullock for Alcorn as Governors. Yet the latter in this State seems com peted to do what a worse man would not dare do with us. I heard negroes quote him as their defender in their lawlessness. And it is in evidence that Clofton, lay lor & Cos., the negroes on trial, had publicly declared, the Gov ernor would protect them. They had threatened, so I was informed, ven geance upon the property of rebels, and upon their wives and children.— Whatman be said in defence of ne groes who would kill a Judge whose only offence seemed to !>e the calling a witness to order whilst testifying, and then coolly firing into a crowd of people. I can t see. The Legislature have appointed a committee to inves tigate matters, and United States troops have been ordered to Meridiau. Everything seems to be quiet to-day, but I am greatly mistakeu if the good people of this city have not concluded that longer forbearance has ceased to be a virtue. They are law-abiding— they desire to uphold and enforce the law; but the conoiousuess of this very feeling, if its exhibition in their past conduct be disregarded by those in au thority, may lead to results worse than anything recently witnessed. I must hope that the protest against the con duct of the blacks by the whites of both parties, will have weight with those in power. Surely it cannot be that life property, business, must all succumb to this morbid seutimentallity in favor of a black skin. Are not our wives and children, our homes and our property, deserving of any consideration from those in position to shield and protect them ? But more anon. Carolus. The Chester Difficulty. -The Co lumbia Phoenix, of yesterday says: We received last evening the follow ing from Chester, S. C.: March 9, 1871. Mr. Editor: The excitement and troubles here stiff continue, notwith standing the arrival of United States troops yesterday. A most daring at tempt was made to burn the town last night. Had it not been frustrated, our entire business part of town would have been in asheg this morning. The colored fire company known as the Champion Hook and Ladder Compa ny, have given up their apparatus, re fusing to aasist iu ease of fire and many of them express themselves that the town can burn and be d—d; that they will render no assistance. Information from the country, this morning is, that the negroes "(about 800) have left the plantations and col lected at Sanders’ store, about pleven miles above here, and near Carmel Hill. It is supposed that half of them are armed. A collision is expected to day. The negro militia company that left here on Tuesday morning came in to collision with the whites yesterday morning, near Carmel Hill. The af fair lasted for an hour, and ended with a loss of eight killed. White loss, one wounded. There is no business doing and many plantations are idle. The New Bayonet Eeleetion Act. The new' bill, which has now passed both houses of Congress, called the Enforcement, act, and which is design ed to exceed in effectiveness as a piece of election machinery that of the last session, will, it is to be presumed, be come law by the favor of the Presi dent. We have heretofore given a pretty full and accurate exhibit of its astonishing pfbvisions, under which penalties of fine and imprisonment are imposed regarding the registration of voters, which is virtually to be taken possession of by the Federal officials, and also the conduct of the elections —the operation of the acL to be no longer limited to cities and towns of 20,000 inhabitants, if two citizens ask for its application in places of lesser note. For any supposed interference or non-submission of State to Federal officers iu these matters, primarily undertaken ffj ie State itself, parties are subject to be arrested without warrant by the (Jutted States Marshal or his deputies, and provision is made for the transfer of any suit brought by an aggrieved citizen against a Federal officer from a State Court to a United States Circuit Court, and to render the judgment of a State Court in such a case null and void. If this is not degrading and debas ing the States wantonly and malig nantly, it is difficult to conceive what it is. The act of the last session, if wo mistake not, reacted injuriously upon the dominant political party in the country which passed it, ostensibly for the purpose of securing the purity of elections. It was for certain locali ties only, that time—but now it seems corruption is everywhere. It has grown so rapidly that the law must be so framed as to be brought to bear at will in all quarters, and be made more stringent aud usurping than before.— It is difficult to believe that it will not, instead of promoting the party ends of those who passed it, bring indignant rebuke towards them from among the people. In this State the Republicans reaped only evil and less from the law as it stood at the last election, and it can do them no good, it is believed, within the borders of Maryland here after.—Baltimore Sun. Cio It, Whitely. Radicalism is a curious humbug. Properly diagnosed, it means individu al and collective plunder. It works on the great rule of get all you can aud keep all you have. It is the syn onyms for “snatching,” as one of At lanta's versatile representatives and apostles of its peculiar creed, once fe licitously said in the writer’s presence. There is Whitely, who was elected United States Senator by Bullock’s Le gislature in one of its pliant moods, and who was unsatisfied with senato rial honors*or dubious of their realiza tion, took stock in a race for the H use of Repreceutatives in the Second Dis trict of Georgia. The man was elected Senator when the office had already been filled by the identical Legislature that elected him; while he was beaten by Tift for Representative. This discouraging state of things would have paralyzed any but a square out, legitimate disciple of Radicalism. Elected to an office already filled, aud beaten for another office, ordinary men would have caved. Not so, with this political gamb er. His ilk takes all chances, and Whitely stuck to the crib, and tugged for other people’s rights te naciously. Iu honest times, -under rule of cor rect men and true principles, this pres tidigi.ator would have iguominiously been kicked into his merited obscurity. But now, in :hese evil days, his leg erdemain has succeeded admirably.— The Senate refused him admission, and admitted fcis opponent, but voted m ill! MRS.

The House admitted him though a beaten candi date, and he will now draw pay as a Georgia Represent at i e for the entire session of the 41st Congress. We thus see the anomalous and ex traordinary spectacle of a political adventurer drawing pay from the Federal Government “as both Sen ator and Representative from the same State for the same session, though he was iuelligible for one office aud beat en for the other. All this time he wag drawing a salary from this State as a Solicitor General.” If this case don’t practically illus trate Radicalism and its followers, it would be hard to find one that does. Go it, Whitely! Constitution.

The extensive tlse of these watches for the last fifteen years by Railway Conductors, Engineers and Expressmen, the most exact ing of watch-wearers, has thoroughly de monstrated the strength, steadiness, durabil ity and accuracy of the W iltham watch.— To satify that class in all these respects, is to decide the question as to the real value of these time-keepers. More than 500,000 of these watches are now speaking for themselves in the pockets of the people —a proof and a guar antee of their superiority over all others. The superior organization and great ex tent of the Company’s Work’s at Waltham, enables them to produce watches at a price which renders competition futile, and those who buy any other watch merely pay 25 to 50 per cent, more for their watches than is necessary. These time-pieces combine every improve ment that a long experience has proved of real practical use. Having had the refusal of nearly every invention in watch making originating in this country or in Europe, only those were finally adopted which severe testing by the most skillful artisans in our works, and long use on the part of the public, demonstrated to be essential to correct and enduring time keeping. Among the many improvements we would particularize : The invention and use of a centre-pinion of peculiar construction, to prevent damage to the train by the breakage of mainsprings, is original with the American Watch Company, who, having h*d the refusal of all other contrivances, adopted Fogg’s patent pinion as being best and faultless. Hardened and tempered hair-springs,now universally admit ted by Watchmakers to be the best, are used in all grades of Waltham Watches. All Waltham Watches have dust-proof capg, .protecting the movement from dust, and lessening the necessity of the frequent cleaning necessary in other watches. Our new patent stem-wind r, or keyless watch is already a decided success, and a great improvement on any stem-winding watch in the American market, and by far the cheapest watch of its quality now offer ed to the public. To those living in por tions of the United States where watch makers do not abound, watches with the above mentioned improvements which tend to insure accuracy, cleanliness, durability and convenience, must prove invaluable.
