The removal of the notorious s'tnla
wag, J, E. li yant, United States Mar
shsil for Georgia, and the appointment
j of Col. John YV. Neimes, princi al
keeper of the penitentiary, in his stead,
h;is met the hearty approval of every
true ami good citizen of the s ate In
the dark days just, after the close of the
war, when the negroes,a large and ig¬
norant class had just l>een set free.
Bryant came to Georgia and began to
excite strife and hatred injtheir minds
towards the whita southern men. lie
held negro meetings and told them
that the white southern me ■, their only
true friends, were their enemies. He
advised the men not to labor in the
fields and the women not to cook for
the white people, and inculcated ideas
in their minds which they would have
never dreamed of, and instilled
animo sity in their heats towards the
white people, which they would have
neves had. lie preached nothing but
false doctrines to them irom first to
laHt and did the country more harm
than, perhaps any other man. He,
of ooursa, knew better, but, being as
corrupt as it is possible for^lmman na¬
ture to be, lie was utterly destitute of
moral principle and bis only ambition
was to cultivate friendship with the
negro, and thus hold positions under
the Republics a government. Had
Bryant been an honest Republican,
a Republican from principle, he would
not liavs been so treacherous, so base,
*o corrupt, so vile as to work against
his own race and side with the negro
simply for personal gain. Bryant has
proven himself to be a man of no prin
eiple,no firmness,no remorse ofconsci
etuto and as such he is an enemy to his
own race and it is well that he should
go. We are taught that “All men
are created equal byjnature.” And
what does this mean ? Does itjmean
that they are equal in physical strength ?
Certainly not. Does it mean that they
are equal in intellectural powers 't
Certainly not. What then does it
mean t It simply means that all men
are equal in human rights. Now we
are all God's crateures and should be
liberal in our views and actions to
wards one another but whenever one
acts so basely, so corruptly, so vilely
as has Bryant he should be condemned
by all piwiple, au-1 should rojekv
iMlium he deserves
Austin, Texas, June 17.—Gov. [re

street is what is term -d a “blind street,”
and hence the Governor argued he was
not on the crossing. Finally lie told
the policeman lie would see him in

policeman then arrested the Governor,
took him to the station house and
