Newspaper Page TextLEV HILL. A Representative of The Cci *tl tutton Interviews Him. Mr. Hill States All About that Al leged Radical Letter. He Defines Ills Position and Ex plains Ills Address. The following report of CoL John R. Hart’s interview with Mr. Hill, will be found to be very interesting. Colouel Hart is an old personal and political friend of Mr. Hill, and a truthful ac curate, and brilliant writer: Reporter—ls you ever wrote any let ter to a Republican, have you a copy of it? If not, what did the letter say ? Mr. Hill—l never, in my life, wrote a letter to a Republican, expressing a political sentiment, that I can recall, save only throe numbers of the ‘Notes on The Situation,” addressed to iono ral Grant, in 18C7, and the letters to the Tribune and Times of New York, in 1868. Some time ago, I believe in October or November, I received a po lite letter from some gentlemen, dated at Atlanta, asking my opinions, for publication. I understood the gentle men io be Republicans. I simply re-1 plird: “Your letter is received. I en tertain no political opinions, which I desire, at this time, to give the public, and even prefer that my name should have no public or political mention.”— This was the whole letter—every word, I believe. It seems, one of the writers (Mr. Holden) had left Atlanta, before the reply arrived, and he wrote me frem Augusta, reminding me that I had not answered. I politely notified him I had given the above answer, and again declined to give any other, or to express, even to him, an old whig friend in days past, a single political opiuion. Retained no copies. Reporter—Did you, in consultation with any of the gentlemen, express any political opinion? Mr. Hill -No; have no recollection that I had spoken to either gentlemeu iu two years. Let me tell you again: I have never, iu all my life, written a private letter, or had a private conver sation, seekiug or looking to any earth ly office f »r myself, or leaning to Rad icalism. Hope your question is an swered. Reporter—Fully; and as I believed nil the time. But do you know why McGregor should report such charges, nud the Constitutionalist, The Consti tution should give them such charac ter ? Mr. Hill—No; do not know McGre gor. Never saw him that I remember. Have not seen his affidavits. Hear they are ridiculous. The Constitution alist, is a little spiteful because I send all my letters to the Chronicle & Sen tinel. Air. Randall once said to me I had built up the Chronicle and Sen tinel; to divide my contributions. I thought I would, but uot deeming it a great matter, neglected to do so. It has been a rule of my life never to bring editors under obligations to me. Their kindness has been voluntary, and, in the main, I am indebted to them lor manly treatment It is sin gular how even the best of them con strue portions of my address; still I will not complain, for I know I am right and consistent, and they will one day admit it Reporter—You attended and made a speech at a dinner given by Govern or Bullock to Mr. Delano ? Mr. Hill—l did. I had been with Mr. Delano several days, and found him to be a real first-class gentleman, incapable of getting up and swearing to foul charges against decent men upon no better evidence than rumors to suit. The dinner was given to him at the house where I was. All parties were invited, and had agreed to at tend. All around we were real Demo crats. We all simply honored by our presence an honorable man. I did respond to a toast and sentiment given by this man to Georgia—a State iu the Uuion, (more significant than sim pletons imagine) and I did conclude with the sentiment “The United States Courts,” which I now expect to admin ister equal justice to the people of Georgia in the Union. My presence was gentlemanly, my speech was sin cere, aud my purpose and expectations patriotic. Roporter—You are reported as say ing in that speech, you “did not go to be a Democrat,” or words to this ef fect ? Mr. Hill—Yes, I said so. I never was a Democrat per se. I always said so. I never expect to say otherwise.— Since the war insults and oppressions of the Republicans have driven me to act with the Democratic party, and I shall act with it while those insults aud oppressions continue. The charge that I am capable of acting with a fiarty that disfranchises me and en rauchiaes my slave to govern me, is so ridiculous, that none but fools will be lieve it, and none but Jcuaves will say it. The real truth is, lam no partisan, and have but little respect for any man who is. The South has paid dearly enough for this blind party worship. It is time for the South to subordinate party to her interest, aud not longer subordinate interest to party. This is now her best platform; and there fore it is mine. Reporter— How do you think your address is regarded, us judged by your private correspondence ? Mr. Hill—Moat admirably. I could detain you all day reading the warm est commendations from the best men in the State; some of whom have -erv ed and houored her in better days.— Huk of those who approve, it is true, are old Whigs, yet there are many Democrats in the number. No lawyer has denied the legal proposition. Reporter-^What in the difference between your proposition, and that of fJor. Brown, in 1067 ? Mr. Hill—Just the as that be tween two sons, one of whom helps assassins to slay his father, and the ether, after exposing life and ail to prevent the slaughter, and fails, simply and sadly recognizes the fact that his father is dead, and decently buries him, aud honestly goes to work for the family. Is there no difference between parricide and filial love ? Reporter—Looking to political re- ’ hults, what was the difference between accepting the situation io 1867, aud abiding it now ? Mr. Hill—ls we had excepted, in 18- 67, the amendments to the Constitu tion and other results of reconstruc tion they would have became laws by our consent, and the odium would have beeu ours. By refusing to consent, wo copelled their authors to make these laws by force and usurpation, and the odium is on them. Reporter —But all laws, you say, must be obeyed. What, then, is the practical difference between a law made by couseut aud a law made by usur pation ? Mr. Hill—Ah 1 right there, my friend, y >u have struck the very kernel of my address. This difference everybody will see in time, but I prefer to post pone that discussion for the present. I will, therefore, make two remarks to give your thoughts a direction, aud then ask you to excuse me. The obli gation of obedience to a law of consent, is a duty embracing the moral sense, the obligation of obedience to a law of usurpation, is a duty measured by ne cessity. The latter, while it lasts, may be stronger than the former, as physic al power may be stronger than the hu man will or the moral sense. The last remark is this If you will read the address, you will find that in determining the meaning and extent of power conferred on the general gov ernmeuts by the 14th and 15 th amend ments —I only state the construction as decided or held by them, in Congress and on the Bench —who made and ad vocated these amendments. Iu time, in style, aud iu logic, the address was right, and will be main tained. In conclusion ; the reporter states that he saw aud read the original let ter written by Air. Hill to Mr. Holden. And Air. Hill’s rememberance of it is correct. It contains nothing more nor less than Air. Hill states iu his an swer. GKOKUIA BEFORE CONGRESS. The credentials of Hon. W. W. Pajne, Representative elect from the First District, will be presented in the House to-morrow.— He will be sworn in without objection. At least, such is the understanding to-night. Gen. Young will also present to-morrow the credentials of S. A. Corker, Representa tive elect from the Fifth District, and will en deavor to get a vote of the House on the ques tion of admission. A big fight is expected, however ; and it is feared the case will be re ferned to the committee oa elections. But ler is Beard's attorney. Gen. Young thinks the chances of Messrs. Hill and Miller’s admission are decreasing with each day’s delay. He has little hope now for a decision in their favor from the Senate, We are still in the dark as to the intentions of the Judiciary Committee. GEORGIANS IN WASHINGTON. Hon. Ben. 11. Hill is stopping at Willards He is here on business connected with the State Road, in which Senator Cameron and Secretary Delano have a finger too. Mr. Hill assures his old friends here that he has not turned Radical, and does not intend to. He says his object was to “quiet things down.” General Bushrod W. Frobel, Surveyor General of Georgia, is here on business con nected with the interests of the State, of which more anon. He will remain here for some time.

From a West ern paper we cut the fol lowing notice:—“Died—After a short illness yesterday, my wife, leaving behind her three infant children.

WATT HARRIS and SAM’LH. SMITH Ewitoks and Proprietors. CARTERBVILLE. GA., JAN. 27th. 1871. RECONSTRUCTION. It is pat nful to see the office of the Chief Magistracy of this great country, prostituted to the viiest and most in jurious purposes, as is eviuced by its present incumbent For some time past, it has beeu positively alleged that Grant would 8* nd down to Congress a message recommendingreconstruction; warmly urging his radical followers still to wage their Congressional war upon the Southern States, by exclud ing their chosen Representatives from their seats. The election in Georgia, in spite of the infamous election law, emanating from the unscrupulous brain and pen of Judge AlcCay, but falsely attributed to Akerman, has so over whelmingly proven fatal to the agita tors in and out of Congress, that Gen. Grant has not as yet had the hardi hood to carry out his contemplated raid on Southern liberties. The act would have been too ridiculous and in digestible, even for his hardy political camp followers at Washington, and now holding in reserve any such at tack upon the rights of our people, he has meanly sent in a sort of summary of real or supposed aggressions upon the persons and pi’ivileges of divers ne groes, in various portions of this sec tion, running back for several years, many of which have hitherto beeu re ported; and thus seeks to excite the wrath of his obsequious tools against the whole people of the South, and call for what they are pleased to term “appropriate legislation.” No man iu his senses, can but see through this flimsy veil. It is all pretence, and pre tence of the shallowest order. He knows, and thev know that it is all the veriest sham, gotten up for the most unworthy party political purposes. — The election in Georgia, according to the published testimony of Bullock, himself, was fair, as fair as could be made or had, with all the advantages on the Radical side, under this cor rupt election Bill; und the people of the State have overwhelmingly defeat ed all these well-devised plans, by such a victory as has astonished the whole radical camp, and filled it with dismay. Now the effort is, since they have been put to rout, “horse-foot and dragoons’ in Georgia and elsewhere, to raise the cry of persecution and maltreatment to the blacks, on the part of the South ern people, and for this cause, political, ly to punish the States South, for the supposed misdemeanors of private in dividuals. Was ever such folly exhib ited, or such tyranny sought to be ex erted ? If the law has been complied with, and it has; if the Constitutional enactments, made by themselves, have been received, and they have; if no op position to the free course of Federal discipline, military aud civil, has been made, and there is none: if the banner of the republic waves unmolested over all the Southern land, and it does; if our people, one and all, are submis sive to the powers that be iu every par ticular, aud they are; if in short, all tiiat a radical regime has abked or insisted upon, at the hands of our peo ple, has been fully granted, up to the very last iota, whether distasteful or not, and it has; what else, let us ask, other than the fell spirit of insatiable hate aud political proscription for par ty purposes and personal aims, couM prompt such unworthy aud such wrong ful thoughts or ends? When Gen. Grant went into the political campaign which resulted in bis elevation to the Presidency, the war cry of bis fol lowers, given out by himself was “let us have peace,” and with this dove-like declaration resting upon his lips, he solemnly swore to be the impartial ru ler of the whole people of the land.-- But from the day of his installation to this hour, his whole course has been only calculated to fan the flames of dissension in our midst, and so far from endeavoring to calm the heart and surface of society, his efforts, as now, have been directed to pile up the waves of political commotion, and to oppress a people who were already ruined by a most destructive war. We had hoped better things, indeed we had a right to expect it. No man, per haps, saving and excepting Andrew Johnson, ever had a more open path for eminently true renown and posi tive, good to the people, than he, and no one has more signally failed to ful fil what might have been a glorious achievmeut. Locked up, however, in the pursuit of his own personal emol uments, private and political, cherish ing, unworthily, a bitter hatred to the people, who so long and so gallantly contended, fc ho ug h unsuccessfully, against him and his legioDs. on the the battle field, for what they held to be their most sacred rights; and burn ing with an intense desire to retain the succession for himself, and its benefits for his family and personal friends and adherents, he now seeks still finfcker! through Congress, to excite the Nation against the South, belies hi 9 declara tions of peace and good will, throws all the weight of his office and conse quent patronage in the scale, so as yet further to oppress the people of the South, if peradventure it may not serve in some sort, to turn away the public attention from the glaring defi ciencies of his administration, and shield him against the much dreaded opposiiion of able men, within the ranks of the Republican party. We believe, however, that it will all be in vain. The Southern Coiigiessmen will take their seats, and are taking them, The wolf cry of Radicalism is losing, and lias already lost Os charm upon the people of the North and West, and any legislation which may now be had upon this subject iu Congress, to suit the fancies or the interest of Grant and ’ his, will soon be set aside by that of a tiulv patriotic and Conservative repre sentation, from all the States, more “appropriate” to the spirit of the Con stitution, the spirit of the age, and the rights of nan. We do not believe that the present Congress will prove them selves the suppliant tools of a man, who Frank Blair says “w ill never be willing to lay dovvu the reigus of au thority, all unfit though he be.” We shall see. miscellaneous.

The Drought at the North.—The New York World, of Saturday, says: The dangers of the drought are be coming serious in other parts of the country, and may become serious here. At Springfield, Mass., there is less than three weeks’ supply of water —a fact which the Springfield Republi can dilates upon in language calcula ted to make the human hair of the city rise on end. Ihe people of Hoboken and Jersy City are suffering from want of water in consequence of the burst ing of the feeding-pipe of the reservoir at Belleville, and towns in the interior along the Hudson complain of a lack of water in wells and cisterns. Many of the springs and small streams have dried up, this being the case in parts of Wpatchester and Rockland counties, where the springs had not failed for the previous f< »rty years. The sources of the Croton supply are of course af fected by the prolonged drought, and we have great reason to be thankful for the reserve in someone hundred and fifty acres of reservoir at Central Park. Ail Anecdote of the lute Admiral Farragut. A prominent gentleman o f New York, who was familiar with the late Admiral Furiagut, and who I think was with him in his last moments, has told me the following characteristic story of the great sailor: A few hours before Farragut died he called his wife to his side, and said he would like to see a clergyman. Before Mrs. Farra ! gut had time to send for one, an Irish servant girl who was in the room, and who heard the Admiral’s request, start ed out and secured the the attendance ; of a Roman Catholic priest who hap pened to be in the neighborhood.— The Admiral w'as drawing near the close of his journey, and the priest en tered without being recoguized by him. The good father was soon engaged in preforming the services of the Catho lic Church peculiar to the occasion at the bedside of the dying man. All of a sudden Farragut opened his eyes and seemed to comprehend not only what was going on but the character of the clergyman. Waving his hand toward the priest, he said in a clear, distinct voice, “Go away, sir; you are not my pilot /" whereupon the priest wi lidrew, and the Admiral died as he had lived, a believer in the Protestant faith Messrs. Cox & Ilill. We received during last week, a cir cular letter from the old and reliable firm of Cox and Hill, Atlauta, convey ing the intelligence that they have on hand a very large and excellent stock, of wines, liquors &c., which they propose to sell on the best terms for cash, or to reliable patrons. Thh com munication was accompanied by a ve ry neat card of the firm mentioned, which for safe keeping, we have placed in this paper. We seldom ever drink but when we dc, good liquor is prefer red to the poisons that some conscience less creatures prepare for the ruin of the people. The dealers of this place will find Messrs. Cox and 1 till reliable in all things. Even Sara Smith of th< Cartersville Express will endorse this sayiug—“l/ he is a Preacher and s< will all honest men who know then, or their liquox-s. Send your orders t> our old friends Ct-x & Hill. The above item we clip from the Newnan Defender, and we can say one thing, of a certainty, and that is that we never met two cleverer gentlemen than Messrs. Cox & Hill, anywhere, and as to the quality of their ‘(spirits,’ if brother Taylor, of the Defender , says they are fine, you can go your bottom doller ou it; besides, if his proposition is doubted, Messrs.
