The New York Evening l'**', emong the ecvere] reaaona adduced by it why we ehould not bate another war in thin country, very gravely Raya "it (war) will destroy liberty hert,” The idea! —How aupcrlativcly ri diculous to talk about destroying liberty here, Wh'eti there ia not a particle of that played OBt, obsolete commodity on this wide conti nent, and very little anywhere else on the green globe. What an immense amount of such pru dery, or, rather, arrant tomfoolery, as this, is rife in almost every department of every day life. The wickedest rascal in your commu nity, ia, apparently, ever fearful that some thing may occur that will Jesfro/hia cose of conscience.—the grandest hypocrite is trem ulously sensitive, lest something may turn up calculated to destroy his fine-strung religion, --while the most blushlees Aspasia that walks your streets, will affcot to be tremen. dously afraid to take a moon-light stroll, lest scandal, forked-tonguqd shall destroy her reputation. Hut of all of these ridiculous puttings-on, that to which we first referred —via, the New York Evening Rost's reason why this oountry should not have another war, which was that “it would destroy lib erty here ” —that, we say, is the most laugh ably ridiculous. TtHnUmg Versftir Talking What a great set of thinkers, these corres pondents of Southern journals arc, who have been scnt-oi) to report what can be seen and what can be heard, away-up yonder in those Boreal regions “where thc 4 Radical lion roarcth, and the Yank Hoodie mourn cth for more blood and moro spoons.” The correspondent of one paper, for instance, thinks that Radicalism is dead, or dying— that the Johnson ticket will carry in Ver mont or California or Maine—while the cor respondent of another paper thinks that the Mulatto Convention at I'hiludclphia, was a failure, and further thinks that the Radicals themselves think so—and thus do these thinkers constantly exercise themselves in thinking, leading us fur-off outsiders and lookers-on to think, too, that Johnsonism end Conservatism arc tremendously on the increase These men are doubtless, all honest in tffeir thinkings. But a voico is heard from that' inclement clirao; —the ballot box docs nt) thinking, it talks out —and alas ! talks along the wires that Radicalism is neither dead or dying, nor slccpcth, that all those states hitherto radical, arc waxing stronger and stronger in the dvgnfas of that relentless ly wicked and destructive doctrine. A Good and Tkuk Man Gone.—Clem ent C. Clay, Senior, a man full of years and good works, died at his residence (Hunts ville, Ala.,) on Thursday morning i Sep ten her 6th, after an illness of a few hours. He was in his 77th year, and had rrsen lor some time, in fsebl* health. Gov. Clay has been one of the leading men in Alabama and has filled most of the important offices in tho gift of the people, lie has been Judge, member of tho Legislature, member of Congress, Senator of tho U. S., and Gover nor of the State of Alabama. Ho has lived a long and useful lifo, and his death is re gretted by that entire community. Governor Clay, wo may add, was the father of that distinguished gentleman, C ('. Clay, Jr., recently released, on parole, from Fortress Monroe, having been there confined on the charge, as all recollect, of complicity in the assassinof Abraham Lincoln. Never did moral heroism, and the old Ro man fidelity to principle and virtue, connect ed with rare gilts of intellect, descend from sire to son, with less loss or discount, than in tho oaso of the two Clays here mentioned together, and bearing, the relation referred to Apropos, speaking of C. C. Clay, Junior, he, if Heaven spares him, is one of the threo or four men, every way (|’ialiticd, to whom we look Cora true and just history of the Southern Confederacy—men who will dare to write it with the emblazoned motto: “ Fiat Justitia, ruat ccelum. ,, Atlanta Medical and Surgical Journal. —The September number of this valuable and popular Journal of medicine, and its cognate branches, —thanks to the courtesy of its urbane proprietors !—has reached our tabic.

James Nagle, conncoted with the Mexican war, and aho with the late war, died in Pootsvillc, Pa , on the morning of the 22d of August. [COMWUSICATKD.] Messrs Editor ’s. — Relieving that Griffin,and Spaulding county generally, arc deeply in teracted in the results of the Railroad meet ing which is to come off to-morrow, and fearing that no plan has yet been concocted that will ct>mmand unanimity of action, I am prompted to address the stock-holders a few words, and urge them to come to the meeting prepared to act promptly. Should nothing efficient be done at this meeting 1 fear that another may never be held. Taking it as granted that all wish to sec the road built, and that all are interested in its accomplishment, it only remains to in quire how it can be done. There seems to be but two ways practicable, and, for one, 1 re joice that it is practicable at all—for certainly this section of oountry never was so deeply interested in the accomplishment of any one object. I say, then, if the stockholders will consent to be taxed on their stock, the road can be built, and 1 doubt not, that eventu ally the stock will pay them a fair dividend. Hut, granting that it will never pay a divi dend at all, 1 hold that every property-owner would be worth greatly more on tho day the road is finished than ho now is, counting his stock at par. If the stock-holders will not agree to the above plan, there is one other left, viz; To give, or sell their stock to a company, who will bind themselves to complete the road in a given time. I know, it is rather an in delicate matter to ask a man to give away the stock for which he has paid his money, hot in this cate it ia absolutely certain that by ao doing he adda to his wealth—for, every one kuowe that a railroad of the mag nitude and importance of this one never has failed to increase the value of real estate within a score of miles or more. I person ally know that a large portion of the land over which tbe Illinois Central Railroad passes, could not have been sold at 25 cents per acre before the road was projected, and that when it was completed said lands were held at from three to ten dollars, nnd arc now worth from ten to fifty. I would not ask the stock-holders to give away their stock, if they Can sell it, even for a small per cent on the amount paid in, but 1 do entreat them so to act as that the road shall be built at once. If the stock-holders per sist in doing nothing thorni elves, and refuse to dispose of their stock on terms that will enable a company to complete it, other roads will bo built that will supersede the necessi ty of this one, and you will find yourselves without this great Southern Trunk, and your stork worthless. 1 understand that the c ntirc «sock in the Air-fine B-iatlfrom Atlanta north, has been given to a company who will spc< dily com plete it. I Call Upon you, then, to 1 uild the toad Toursclvrs, or [eruiit 'Vheis to do so. G v.t win. [COMMUNICATED.] “Vox Populi’’ regrets very much that he trespassed upon the patience, good feeling, and brevity of tbe Star, with his so-called unintelligible letter, and he will simply state, as an apology, that he will in the fu ture, consign this matter to a Solon and Lycurgus. Vox Poei i.t. Telegraphic News. New Y'oiik, Sopt. 10. — Henry Ward Beecher lias written another letter explana tory of bis previous letter upon the Cleve land Convention, ami announces himself as opposed to the details of tho President’s po licy of reconstruction. Ho does not modify his Cleveland epistle, or disown it, but on the contrary be justifies and defends it. In regard to tbe New Orleans riot, lie says Johnson’s haste to take the wrong side of theatiocious massacre of New Orleans was a shocking perversion, and the mutilation of Sheridan's dispatches needs no characteriza tion. Ido not attribute it to him, yet it was of such a criminal and and sgraccful na ture that not to clear himself of it by an ex posure nnd rebuke of the offending party amounted to a coalition with crime.

A PiiE-vcBER Killed by Lightning.— The Americus Tri- Weekly Republican of the Bth instant informs ns “ that he Rev. John f. Berry, • minister of the M. E. Church, and a member of the Georgia Con ference, was killed by lightning, nt his resi •deitee, in Kllsville, on Wcdnei day last (Sept. sth.)

[communicated 1 The Railroad and its (Extension. The importance of connecting this city with Memphis by railroad, on as nearly a straight line as possible, has not, I am sure, been oevr estimated. To that end the de liberations of the convention about to assew ble, will be earnestly directed. Nor can we doubt that on someone of tbe plans content plated it will be built. There is, however, an ultimate object of uo small moment, which should not be over looked— I mean such extrusion of the road “eastward,” as will prevent its entire depen. dmer upon either end of the road with which it will, at this place, - connect. Mo certainly us the road is built to Memphis, it must con vey a vast amount of “freight and passen gers” to this glare ; but not to it as their “final destination !” The “seaboard” will bo the chief aim of the Northwest. A choice of markets, also, they must have. Facilities for reaching them should therefore be provided. As Griffin is now situated, 'ts interest and destiny are susceptible of control by the roads which now afford its only means of reaching the “seaboard mar. kets.” But by an extension cf the road on a straight line eastward to Sparta, an easy egres-- is opened lor communication direct with Augusta and Charleston, via Warren ton. Thus a great public benefit will be secured, without detriment to any other roadi or section of the .State or country. By a glance at the map, it will be seen that the space to bo filled up to complete that open' ing, is short, nnd may bo easi’y lad. But should it not be found expedient at present it may be well to take it into consideration, as part of the grand design, to be, at no dis tant day, atCTnipliahcd. Extensor.

Jenkins. —Wc learn from a gentleman who parted front Gov. Jenkins at Washington, that he expected to reach Augusta to-day. He has been very successful in all the objects of his visit, both in New Vork and Washington, and expresses great gratification at the tone of popular feel ing at the North, and at the result of the Philadelphia Convention—. 1 ug. Citron. !). • There is said to be a tremendous stam pede from the Radical ranks in Wisconsin. Many of tho most prominent Republicans in the i-TatO are eonting out in favor of the President’s policy. Mim-koknatios.—There was a marriage at Deerfield, Connecticut, a few days since, of Ilenry W. Harley, of Montague, a sixty four year old white man, to Miss. Amanda Jigger, an eighteen yeat old nigger. Ax “ attache” of the Times office, at Sel ma, drew a prize of $5,000 in tho last draw ing of the Alabama State Lottery. The Virginia farmers arc making molasses from watermelon juice. California. —The election on the sth, ill San Francisco for city and county officers resulted in favor of tho radical ticket. Miss Anna Dickinson, and Geo. Win, Curtis, John B. Gough, and the -National Spoon Thief, are all advertised to lecture through tho Northern States the ensuing winter. It is computed that one-fourth the negroes liberated from bondage by the war are now in their graves. And the process of destruc tion will go on as long as agitation is kept U P- Let Dolifics West for a While. Every man, woman, and child in tho South cannot alter our destiny, by talking or writing about politics. We are so situ ated that Northern opinion, and not South ern opinion, alone must secure us our rights. While we are waiting for the troubling of the waters, we have many things to think and act on which vitally interest us. South ern agriculture must be revolutionized — oivr exhausted field, must be reclaimed—our Seeded railroads be built, and whatever of capital We may hereafter have, be so direct ed that it will be wisely used. To accom plish these things, our farmers in every coun ty should organize agricultural Clubs, or So cieties, and discuss all rpiesiions relative to their avocations. Capitalists should be en couraged to invest their money in Hailrosds and Factories. Every dollar thus invested, is a permanent investment, —and a perma nent good to the country. No people under the sun possess greater natural advantages for profitable manufacturing than the South ern people, and, we are sorry to add, no peo ple have improved them so little. As Judge Bigham truly remarked, in the the Court House, last YCcdnesday, whilo discussing this subject—the very streams murmur at our neglect. Let this be true no longer. If we will it—it will be so. The bleak New Eng land of forty years ago, is now one vast smil ing garden, while the sunny South is almost a desert. Such a heritage mast not be thus misused. True, strangers have contributed to this end—true, the bayonet, the bullet, and the torch, bavc aided in this desolation, still, we w ho are to the manor born, arc not altogether guiltless. Now, the strangers have left us, and the bayonet,the bullet, and torch, have ceased to destroy, let us arouse o»r en ergies, and feel that our country yet remains, —go to work—fill our Legislative hrvlls vVith our wisest and best met*, and Jo our whole duty in our appropriate spheres; and not many years wilk elapse, ere Gcorgi* and her oppressed Bisters will rise from their desola tion, *nd be more prosperous, beautiful, and happy, than they were ia the glorious past.

Valuable to Farmers. — The leaves of the alder, if strewn among corn or other grain when it is pnt into the bin, will effect usliy preserve it from the ravages of the weevil. The juice will also kill bedbugs and maggots. Insects never touch alder bushes. The leaves of the alder scattered over cabbages, cucumbers and other plants subjected to the ravages of insects, wi.l ef fectually shield them. The plum and other fruits may be saved by placing in the bran ches and among them, buuchcs of alder leaves. A letter from Plymouth, England, pub lished in the London Star, says: “Advices received by the Norseman sti t s that a boat s crew belonging to the trench war steamer Fulton have been murdered, cooked and eaten by the natives of New Caledonia. The officers and crew of the I' uitou, in retalia tion, have taken summary vengeance upon the savages, killing every one they could catch in that neighborhood and setting fire to their villages. Over one hundred and fifty had been shot and bayoneted, besides those burnt.” NEW ADVERTISEMENTS. Grijjin Memorial Association.
