[From the Atlanta Siiu. ”*’• Oil il*<> Radical Kcv olutlon. to the (ovrier-JournaT* specific Tuitions; Mr. Stephens; tell us f>r cisely what n, e*n by refusing to rocognise (he valid* , *- v of the Fourteenth and Fifteenth Amend ments? Du you mean, when you get (he power, to aet them aside? If you do, how will you do it? We menu that the people of the Uui b and States at the polls shall refute to vote for any man for any office, high or low, State or Federal, who holds the doctrine that the Constitution of the United States Ims been, or can be rightfully or mildly amended by “gross usurpation” and acknowledged * fraud. , Jierjidy anti violence /” We mean tha. when a majority of the House of Rep resentatives in Congress shall be elect ed ou this souud Constitutional basis that they shall pay not the slightest regard to that flugitous crime agaiust the Constitution and the liberties of the country, known as part of the Fourteenth Amendment, so-called, which attempts to fix other “qualifica tions” for members of the House than those prescribed in the Constitution.- - Lord Coke said: “Parliament cannot create disabilities.” So we say, and so we would have each House of the Con gress of the United States to declare; and we would have the four millions of the voters of the United States, who hold the same opiuion, so to declare their judgment at the polls; and yote for no man who does not bold the same opinion ! Just so with the office of Chief Mag istrate. We mean that the same over whelming majority of the people of the Uuited States who feel and know that these “interpolations” in tho Constitu tion are nothing but the results of usurpation aud fraud, shall vote for no man who holds that the Constitution can be rightfully or validly so amend ed. In like manner, precisely as the Democracy did in 1800 in the election of Mr. Jefferson, on the validity of the Alien and Sedition acts. Just as the Democracy then triumph ed and rescued the Government in its fatal tendency to centralized despot ism, so we mean that the Democracy in 1872 should do. This is their high mission, if they could but prove them- Belves to be equal to its grand require ments. This is how we propose to get rid of these great frauds culled Consti tutional Amendments. 11. Mr. Stephens; nfier you have got rid of the amendments, what do you mean to do with the negro? Having deprived him of the guarantees contained in the amendments, will you deprive him of suffrage and civil rights? And in this latter event, what iB your general idea as to the disposition that ought to be made of him ? We mean to do with the black pop ulation just as with any other class of the population in the country —that rs t leave their status—their rights, civil and political—with the States wherein they reside respectively. Their free dom is forever guarauteed to them by the Thirteenth Amendment to the Constitution, which was rightfully and validly adopted by all the States most deeply interested in the subject. As to suffrage and what extent of civil or political rights shall be extended to this class of population, these are ques tions for each State to determine for itself. Congress has no more rightful control over them than over woman suffrage, Indian suffrage, or the civil or political rights of any other class of Imputation in the respective States. — This is our view of this subject briefly given. Oar general idea as to the disposi tion of this class of population is that it ought to be dealt fairly and justly by, in all the States; and that all rights, civil and political, ought to be secured to th< m by each State respectively, as they prove themselves fit to have award ed them. Ajj3 a Georgian we have no disposition to interfere in the slightest degree with the policy that Musuchu sctts or Connecticut, or Kentucky or Pennsylvania, or New York, may adopt, each for itself, in regard to this race. "We only protest that neither nor all of these States shall interfere with that policy which Georgia, in her ‘'wisdom, moderation and justice,” shall deter mine is for the best interest of both races, within her limits and jurisdic tion. She has herself, by her own act and in good faith, forever, guaranteed their freedom; and we have no doubt will also forever award them all their rights which they may prove themselves to be fit to exercise for the best iuterest of society. These are questions, however, which in no way rightfully belong to Federal politics—and the taking jurisdiction of by the Federal government, is it 'fcdlf the essence of centralism. It is against this usurpation of power —gross, wanton and destructive to our .‘American system of local State govern- mont—that we would have the De mocracy of the Uniou to rally as one j man in the gr< at struggle of 1872. It is not for or against tl negro suffrage., ’’ or “negro civil or political rights,” the rally should be made; but against those who are for tearing down the whole frarne-work of Federal Institutions. In this stuggle, iu our judgment, the motto of the Domocracy, emblnzou i ed on every banner from Maine to Cali fornia, should be the words of Chat ham on a memorable occasion. This was ou the question of the “disability” of the House of Commous pi'onuncia mento against the right of Wilkes to hold a seat in that body. “A breach has been made in the Constitution; the battlements are dis mantled; the citadel is open to the first invader; the walls totter! What re mains, then, but for us to stand fore most iu the breach, to repair or perish in it.” A. H S. A Mississippi negro was re cently set upon by a party in disguise and Ku-kluxed. Being asked, he said his K. K. friends were of the colored persuasion. Ho was asked why he thought so. “I smelt 'urn, massa,” was the short and convincing reply. Statistics—Of the 1,001 young ladies who fainted last year, 987 fell in the arms of gentlemen, two fell on the floor, and one into a water-butt.

Editors: I think honor should be bestowed upon those to whom honor is due; and acting upon this principle, I venture, without con sulting any one, to offer an humble, voluntary tribute of praise to the above institution, and to express my appprobatiou of the course pursued by Misses Safford and Moon, its accom plished, Christian teachers; and to be gin: I remark in the first place thai the School seems to be under most excellent government, which is proven by the harmony which prevails among the pupils, and their good deportment in and out of School; and, in the sec ond place, it is observed that the pu pils all love the teachers, and often express their admiration for them to their parents. The rapid progress made by the scholars in their studies, added to the facts above mentioned, are evidences of efficiency and pros perity, aud entitle the institution to the encouragement and support of our people, aud the worthy teachers to success in their noble work. It is to be hoped then that the Cartersvilie Female High School will receive that amount o(f patronage which it so justly deserves, aud its teachers the hearty co operation of all who have the good of society, and the welfare of their children at heart.

When he has sufficient “grounds.” A rogue was once begging chai ity on pretense of being dumb. A la dy having asked him, with equal sim plicity, how long he had been dumb, !he was thrown off his guard and re plied: “From birth, madam.” “Poor fellow,” said the lady, and gave him a shilling.

Miss Bremer beautifully expresses a good wife’s duty: “If you will learn ehe seriousness of life, and its beauty also, live for your husband; be like the nightingale to his domestic life; be to him like the sunbeams between the trees; unite yourself inwardly with him; be guided by him; make him happy; and then you will understand what is the best happiness of life, aud will ac quire, in your own eyes, a worth with God and with man.” Bgk- A thick-headed squire being worsted by Sidney Smith in an argu ment, took his revenge by exclaiming; “If I had a son who was an idiot, by jove, I’d make him a parson!” “Very probable,” replied Sidney, “but I see your father was of a different mind.” An Elmira, N.

He had observed for some time a change for the worse in his son, and no whe knew the cause. He was very sorry; but he said nothing to Robert at the time. In the evening he brought from the garden six rosy-cheeked apples put them on a plate, and presented them to Robert. He was much pleased at his father’s kindness, and thank him. “You must lay them aside for a few days, that the/ may become mellow,” said the father; and Robert cheerfully placed the plate with the apples in his mother’s storeroom; Just as he was putting them aside, his father laid on the plate a seventh apple, which was quite rotten, and de sired him to let it remain there. “But father, said Robert “the rotten apple will spoil all the others.” “Do you think so ? Why should not the fresh apples rather make the rot ton one fresh ? said his father.—And with these words he shut tie door of the room. Eight days afterward, he asked his son to open the door and take out the apples. But what a sight presented itself 1 The six sound apples which had been so souud and rosy cheeked were now quite rotten, and spread a bad smell through the room. “Father !” cried he, “did I not tell you that the rotten apple would spoil the good ones ? You did not listen to me.” “My boy,” said the father, “have I not told jou often that the company of bad children will make you bad, yet you do not listen to me. See in the state of the apples that which will hap pen to you if you keep company with wicked boys.” Robert did not forget the lesson.— When any bad boys asked him to play with them, he thought of the rotten apples, aud kept himself apart from them. Microscopic Wonders. Lewenbock tells us of an insect seen with a microscope, of which twenty seven millions would oulj equal a mite. Insects of various kinds may be seen iu the cavities of a grain of sand.— Mould is a forest of beautiful trees, with the branches, leaves, and fruit. But terflies are feathered. Hairs are hol low tubes. The surface of our bodies is covered with scales like a fish; a single grain of sand would, cover one hundred and fifty of these scales, and yet a scale covers five hundred pores. Through these narrow openings the sweat forces itself like water through a sieve. The mites make five steps a second. Each drop of stignant water contains a world of animated beings swimming with as much liberty as whales iu the sea. Each leaf has a colony of insects grazing on it, like cows on a meadow. Singular if True!— The N. O. Pic ayune tells is readers of a hermit of , • X ears citizenship in that city, who always lived isolated. A few* days since he was missed, when his house w-as e,l tered and searched. The Pic. gives the result: Sure enough he was dead. He lav pallid and stark ou a pallet of straw*. There were a few scattered chairs around the room and a plain table.— Only one object arrested the eye; near the body was a rich casket, sit in moti.er of pearl and gold. Jewels flashed from thecostly lid, and wreathed in the dust of diamonds were engraved the “Lilies of France” in a coronet of gold. They opened the box and there flashed on their eyes the Burbon dia dem. It was stolen the night of the 10th of August, 1830, when Charles the Tenth abdicuted the throne of trance in favor of the Duke of Bor deaux. tJuderneath it was a manu script, Written in French. It contain ed only these words: “I am Charette, the Yendean Gen eral. Maria of Savoy was to have been my w ife. She was taken from me and given to Comte d’Artois. I could have forgiven this, but he desert ed me when most I needed his help and assistance. X revenged myself and procured his overthrow, and am hap py since he died an exile.” Great Run of a Locomotive. —The schedule time of the fast line East up on the Pennsylvania Railroad, from Altoona to Harrisburg, is three hours and forty minutes. On the 19th, the train drawn by locomotive No. 193, un der Conductor Edward M. Chase, left Altoona tw T enty-three minutes late, and was detained twenty-eight minutes at Huntington and Mufliin, by hot boxes, thus losing fifty-one minutes of schedule time. The locomotive being in charge of Engineer S. Free, brought the train safely in Harrisburg, only one minute late, having made up fifty min utes on schedule time, and making the extraordinary run of one hundred and thirty-tw r o miles in two hours and fifty minutes, or at the rate of a mile in each one minute and seventeen sec onds.—Philadelphia Press. Some years ago the express trains on the Boston and Providence Road run regularly forty-five miles an hour. The daily mail between London and Liverpool runs over forty miles an hour. The night mail train from Lou don to Edingburg runs faster. The broad guage road from London to the southwest of England ran regularly, for some time, over sixty miles an hour. [Eds. Gazette. Roper Prolific Corn. Much has been said about the best kind of corn to plant, and the above has been alternately condemned and ap proved, according to the circumstances attending its cultivation, but in this section, at least, it has not had a fair trial, or wo are quite sure it would long since have superceded every oth er for feeding stock. We have no per sonal interest in recommending this corn at this time, for we possess too small a quantity of it for remunerative sales, but when we have discovered a good thing, we like for our neighbors to profit by it. We planted three acres of Roper’s Prolific Corn last year, but the long drouth and poor land made it a fail ure. We gathered a few bushels how ever from which we planted the present year about four acres. Planted the same poor land without a particle of manure, but had better seasons and better cultivation. It was planted during the month of April from the first to the last week at intervals. We suppose it to have yielded with out measurement, about fifteen bushels per acre and the first planted, is now (July 24th)thorougly dry on the stalks and ready to be garnered. It is, therefore, at least a month earlier than any other corn we have, and if plant ed the Ist of March it will be two months earlier. Is not this a great advantage among farmers who have to buy corn at $1 50 per bushel ? If they plant this corn they will have none to buy after the first of August at fur thest. Another advantage we claim for this corn is, that it is prolvfw, and will yield from three to five ears to the stalk in rich land. This would much more than double the quantity per acre our farmers now make. The third and tast great advantage we shall now claim for it is that the Roper Prolfic is a very hard solid and is not so rapidly destroyed by the weavils as the com mon corn cultivated among ua \ Thomasuille Enterprise. Tlie Prank of a Devil Fisli. The Savannah Advertiser, in the subjoined paragraph, narrates as an actual fact an incident precisely simi lar to that upon which Rev. F. R. Gouding founds his popular story of the Young Marooners. In the case of latter the anchor was secured by a chain, which the young crew of the boat were unable to sever aud were therefore towed out to sea beyond sight and rescue : One of those horrible looking crea tures of the deep, better known as the devil fish, whose appearance in the waters of the coast are somewhat un frequent, has been distinguished him self lately by endeavoring to spirit away one of our old residents. Day before yesterday Major Bouaud, who has many friends in this city, was fishing in Warsaw sound, near Cab bage aehuid, his boat being anchored. By some rae&us or other, a devil fish became entangled in the anchor rope and started oft" at a rapid rate of speed, towing the boat after liim, with the oc cupants in no pleasant frame of mind. The situation became so decidedly un pleasant, that it was thought best to cut the rope and let the fish go fancy free. Unis was accordingly done, much to the relief of the fisherman, and the creature took its way in peace. A cir cumstance something like this occurred iu Charleston harbor not long since, :he parties being nearly capsized. The Devil mid Tom Walker. E-erybody has heard, and a great many make use of the expression, “the Devil and Tom walker,” and yet we presume very few know who Tom W. was, or what relation between him and the Devil justifies this fre quent association of their names. As the most authentic accounts of who Tom Walker was, we give the following interesting story by the best writer America has ever pro duced—Washington Irving ; A STORY OF THE LAST CENTURY. As Tom waxed old, hovever, he grew thoughtful. Having secured the good things of this world, he began to feel anxious about the next. He thought with regret on the bargain he had made with his black friend, and put his wits to work to cheat him out of his condition.—He became, therefore, all of a sudden, a violent church-goer. He pray ed loudly and strenuously, as if heaven were to be carried by force of lungs. Indeed, one might always tell when he had sinned most during the week, by the clamor of his Sunday devotion. The quiet Christians who had been modestly and quietly travel ing Zionward were struck with reproach at seeing themselves so suddenly onstripped in their career by this new-made convert. Tom was as rigid in religion as in money matters; he was a strong supervisor and censurer of his neighbors and seemed to think every sin entered up to their account became a credit on his page.—He even talked of the expediency of reviving the per secution of Quakers and Anabaptists. Still, in spite of his strenuous attention to forms, Tom had a lurking dread that the devil, after all, would have his due. That he might not be taken unawares, therefore, it is said he always carried a Bible in his pocket. He also had a great folio Bible in his counting-house desk, and would fre quently be found reading when people call ed on business ; on such occasions he would lay his green spectacles on the book to mark the place, while he turned around to drive some usurious bargain. Some say Tom grew a little crackbrained in his latter days, and, that, fancying his end approaching, he had his horse newly shod, saddled and buried with his feet up. permost, because that, at the last day, the world would be turned upside down, in which case he would find hia horge ready for mounting, and he was determined at worst to give his friend a run for it. This, however, is probably a mere old wife’s fa ble. If he ready did take that precaution, it was totally superfluous—at least so says the authentic old legend, which closes his story in the following manner ; One hot afternoon in the dog days, just as a terrible black thunder gust came up, Tom sat in his counting-house in his white linen cap and India silk morning gown. lie was on the point of foreclosing a mortgage, by which he would complete the ruin of an un happy speculator for whom lie had express ed (he greatest friendship The. poor land job ber begged him to grant a few mouths’ in dulgence. Tom had grown testy and irri tated, and refused. “My family will be ruined and brought upon the parise,” said the land jobber. “Charity begins at home,” replied Tom. «‘I must take care of myself these hard times' ” ‘•You have made so much money out of me,” said he; “I have not made a farthing.” Just then there were three loud knocks at the street door. He stepped out to see who was there. A black man with a black horse, which stampped and neighed with impatience. “Tom you are come for,” said the black fellow, gruffly. Tom shrunk back, but too late. He had left hiß little Bible at the bot tom of his coat pocket, and his big Bible on the desk, buried under the mortgage he was about to foreclose—never was a poor sinner taken more unaware. The black man whisked him like a child astride the horse, and away he gallopped in the midst of a thunder storm. Such was the end of Tom walker and his ill-gotten wealth. • The story has resolved itself into a pro verb, and is the origin of the popular say ing prevalent throughout New Edgland “The Devil and Tom Walker.” Belt’s just about as sensible to un dertake to get married without court ing as to try to do business without advertising.
