Messrs Editors —Having fur the last rfuvv days become so utterly disgusted with boots, dust and ingenious spid rs, craving wiib all the rest, the re freshment of air and sunshine, your corresponding recluse, has for a short ■while gazud upon the moving mass of aoinsal creation and with some iutercst ing reflections, beheld man, the reputed lord of this lower world makit g rapid advances, as bis intent and purposes seem to portray, to the imaginary zeal of earthly independence. Hope, the mainspriog ol Luman ac tions, still has its perfect work with in dividuals of every grade, notw t stand ing the truth of Pope’s assertion, as to its deceptive nature being continually •verefied in tbs live* of all—yis 'tis still ..the same ‘Jllupe ever springing in the humaD f breast. ’Sian never is, iairt always is to be blest. We do not assume the position j that there is no future-state cd fcapness wit ere the disembodied spirit fails to find a ;lasting rasfjiiar do we understand Pope ito'tuean anything mi ore iu the coapSet we have quoted thaw to deny the fact ol man’s- earthly -coo bent. This inaaie j«*:aciple is not to be censured eve® in a- temperate jadwt es view, when > directed <n a eaisr*e with a tendency to effeeiis«to<i taudibie-onterrpi'ze, for such j we may infir, the design of the Creator is being carried owt. Though hope hag’hccn staled a* Euchantres.t who Haras with viionary claims of bliss, sthe unwary and simple, it is no less in ;fact the benign Goddess whose tender of «f reward to the diligent, has resulted in giving fame for the merit that was once j inspired, llut to the purpose of our let- J ter. These are two principle features discemcble in the mataeuverings of our people,-yet blended as to common inter est. First, the reproduction of an inde pendent livciihod. Secondly, the framing of laws for the security of the same. We honestly believe should Rad icalism receive its death blow in the coming election, our prospects as a part of a great nation would be settle" 1 , and that we in truth could once more con gratul&te ourselves with the thought of having life infused into “the old land yet." Bard, of tbe New Era says, that Ben Hilt has ruined Democracy, and that tbe hopes we entertain for ourselves are fu tile without ad jubt. We are inclined to believe that Sam, like Eosops crow, thicks that be has elevated himself sufficiently to see all over tbe world, or in his fit of assurance has persuaded himself that Atlanta is the world. Dream on in confidence, thou hopeful Bard, such pleasing reflections cannot Always last. It has been, and is still the lamenta ble fact that wisdom and virturc by the force of circumstance, are denied the ad ministration of right which is ever due from them, and merit for the want of power perishes in all of its wonhy es sence. How true in regard to ourselves, is this the case at present. While the great luminaries es statesmanship are efipUDged from thsir proper orbits, mere Bbanoe satellites are emiting their fltker jng rays in the political canopy of the South. W e hope fur a better day, and believe sack will oome »;ffeq opposition to the true interest of a people must eease, and thia political pause in our national pro gresa will end.

The Slave Trade and Onrpel llafger« Ago in- We hnve tiUegt'd thnt Albert Griffin tho protended tirof lotfd-tnoit'hetl friend of the ne.ro find evidence in his po - session to create the belief in his mind thnt some of his earpet-bug coadjutors had inveigled on board n nliip nnd sold into Cnban slavery a lot of color-d freedmen j that Griffin had known this for two years, and (lining all that time bad kept it dark, and had failed in the obvious duty of bis pretended friend ship to tho negro race to push the matter to n thorough investigation, nr> 1 to do ail in his power to bring the per pet raters ol the act of piracy to u just punishment. If there were any of our readers who supposed that we were merely jesting und romancing on a subject b> serious as this, that idea will have been dispelled after reading Griffin’s answer, or rather “confessing” to the article we published on the sub- ject. There is in his answer complete evihneo that he knew all ehout the matter we were trying to ventilate, nnd that his information was derived from the very sine docutn nts whence we derived ours. In fact, as we have stated, these documents were procured by himself, and contained develop mentß which were made by an agent sent by himself to New Or'eatu to ob tain proof to fix the crime upon some Mobile carpet baggers who were bis rivals for the control of the negro party in Mobile. When ho obtained this evidence be stopped short in the in vestigation, and filed it away, ns hi thought, in a s fe place, and let, the nia'ter drop. The conclusion is irre sistib'e that he sought this ptoof aid carried it to a cer'ain point, not for the benefit of the negro race, and not in the interest of humanity, but to nc complish some personal end That en 1 ii b lieved to be to silence and control to his own purposes his carpet bag rivals. Now we wish th i colored men of Mobile and Alabama, “foil'’ leaguers and all others, to remark that what their great upost'e, Griffin, failed to do, the Democratic par ty of Mobile has done—to wit: taken up the inqui ry into this crime and dispatched a messenger to the North to enlist the Nati nal Democratic Committee and the Government of the United States in its protection. We are this morn ing able to say that the whol' matter has been laid before the President of the United States, and that an official inquiry through tho American Conn sul at Havana will be immediately in stituted and vigorously pursued. It will make no difference that this can not be done in lime to reach the guilty and bring them to trial and punish ment, for kidnapping and piracy, and also result, we hope, in the restora’ion to liberty of the poor fre duteh who were so infamously betrayed by their pretended carpet bag friends Facts developed s nee we first broach ed this matter; lead to the belief that the M- M Brown schooner was uot the on y vessel engaged in this enter prise, and that the negroes were not shipped in the same vessel that car ried to Cuba the desperadoes who conceived, executed and gained the goideu fruits us it. We have tbe names of the passengers on the Brown, and they were all carpet baggers, Fed rul detectives and Northerners. They will be furnished to the Government We may only say now, “Mr. Speaker” Geo F. Harrington was one of them W e also have the names of the colored cook and steward. The first is in the city, we beieve, and his colored lricuds may learn from him if an at tempt was not made, and failed, through the warning of n young man who was on board as supercargo, to entice them cn there to be sold. And now, if after suspicions like these are thrown upon the integrity and puri'y of the motives of the men who pretend to be the espUal friends of tbe freedrnen; these ireedmen still [ trust to their guidance and have faith in their friendship, it is their lookout and not ours. And, having stirred up this great crime, wo leave it in tri* I hands ol tho United States Govern ment. Gen.Granl Wanted. The Ages* ys : bat without any desire to disparage Gbd.

Va., Bept tuber 3, 1868. j Whi e awaiting the arrival of a stage at the place bearing the übov Hiber nic name, 1 take advantage of half an hour t" jot down n few not s by tin way through ti e Alleghenies. This i morning i bad lor eompagnons de »<>y 1 inje no less distinguished personages , than Gen. Robot E. loCe and Mr. G M. Conrad, of Lonitri mi, and another 1 gentleman who has evidently traveled a great dual. B'sides diese, a num ber of ttheis made up our cum puny. A Dr. fl M. Banks, of the Democrat ic Slate of New Jersey, occupied the the seat wi h General Lee; your cor respondent sat sitti Mr. Gor.rud, tho remainder lieing iu tho front seat- — Passing thiougti a country noted for tho grandeur and magnificence of its mountain scenery, the principal topic of conver.-atr n was upon this subject, and Gen. Lee, besides evincing a thorough knowledge ot the country, was the pi neipal authority upon all the different species of trees, their na Hire, &c. Mr Conrad was very loqua- cions and o ten a little amusing; but once, when polities was broached, he pouted a broadside into the Radical party; said they were rapidly making a de potisin of the Uoverum nt; that the tendency was that way anyhow; and ho had scarcely a hope that even the election of rieymour and Blair would avert an empire, but temporari y. fc’uch had been the effect of uni versal suffrage in all of the European repu lies, from Home to die present day. Gen Lee was as dignified and im pressive as u-uab He spoke freely with Dr. Banks upon all subjects, and seemed anxious to convince that gen tleman of the great agricultural re sources of the State, dwelling particu larly ui rn its capacities for grape eul ut'o. The intimacy be displayed w ith tho various varieties of grape, their qualities, the classes of vines and tho quant.ties that could be dislt’le t from them, would do credit to the great French manufacturers. In the course of tho con versa'ion Dr Banks mentioned something about the annexation of Ales co, when the General inquired if' he had read ar'ie les in tn* tiera.d recent v written upon that subject by a Mr. Cooper, and did ! he know who Mr. Cooper was? The Doctor ha l heard of the nnicies re ferred to, but w as not able to enlighten the General as to the antecedents ol Mr. Cooper. Here, unfortunately, this subject was dropped, though your eor respondent produced a copy ol tho Herald with an edt orial article upon Mexico in connection with the I to visit of Gen. Ilosencrans to the White Sul. phur Springs The General then be gan to s| eak of other m tters, and the political condition of the country be ing under discussion shortly after wards, for the first time he let slip an opinion. The Dim cruti; Rep esenta tive of New Jersey was entliu.-iastic as to tt e certain election of Seymour and Blair, and in strong terms denounced the enormities of the Radical parly, to which the General responded in a qui et but forcible manner, that “if the Democratic, or (collecting himself.) tho conservative clement did not triumph iu November tho country would tie ruined ” Candidates, tiic General seemed to tn nk, made but little differ erne; [trine pics ware the issues in the campaign, and he had an indent wish for ti.e success of tho-e that were based tip n the Constitution, llespoke of the bond holders, and illustrated in his culm, quiet way how easy it was to speculate u[ op. the put 1.0 through this bond system, which he thought iniqui tous As if he had ft r got ten himself or the subject was distasteful to him, i he introduced other and peihaps to him more interesting matter. In ti is way the journ y passed, a nrxeu or regular stage couch conver sation occupying the rema nder of the time until we reached ‘ Callaghan's.” But two incidents occurred by the way worthy of note A crowd us Boys in Blue, some half dozen, evidently rusti j eating on the mountain side attracted the At'entior of the party as we drove past. Mr. Conrad wondered what they could bo doing in that section of the country, when lien. Lee said they were part of Ju lgo Harrison’s body guard in Union county. “What,” said Mr. Conrad, “a judge have a body guard ? It’s not possible I he requins a body guard?” “He thinks he docs,” 3aid one of the j party, sniffing, “and has one constant- i i J- n . This was then explained by another gentlman in a vt ry correct and impar- \ tial manner, as 1 know. Some per- i sons allege that he is under indictment even now, whi o exercising the func tions of judge by the grace of Gover nor Boreirmn, for he was never elect ed The other incident was quite differ ent, and illustrated in a s liking man ner the gi eit love and respect th peo ple entertain lor Gen. Lee. Some la dies in a passing carriage caught a glimp-eof the General. 1 hey stopped immediately, called after cur stage, had it halted, and though it was pour ing ruin at the time, ran down to grasp the hand of ihe great chieftain Soon after we reached our preseat location, and here the General left us.

It is said of him by thora who have known him fr ill his early youth, that be was never under the it.tlueneo of s’rong drink, never known to tell an untruth, or utter a profane catb—to indulge iu a vulger s'nry, a course anecdote, or an obscene jest; nor did he ever violate the proprieties of the Sabbath, or sit at a gambler’s table, or cross the thres hold of more fashionable vico. Purity of life is with him a marked character is io. Education in the Episcopal Church, he has ever remained faithful la bis communi in, adorning its doc'rirres by a blameless life and multiplied deed of charity : yet from sectarianism he h is contiibutcd liberally to tbe erection and inaiuiainaDce of every other church and place of public worstrp in the city of Utica and its vicinity.

Bouth Carolina is a model reconstruc ted State, with four score and two ne» groea in one branch of tbe L gislnture, aud ibe Cnarlestou News thus exposes it to the skin : The carpet bag government of South Carolina is impecunious to a degree. It has neither m Hjey nor ertdic. The re cotislruc ion C invention, by the aid of tbe military power, e z'd upon the htl ance of the treasury of the lawful gov ernment, and converted it to the beuifit ol the usurpation.

They received ‘20,- 000 on accouut, and showed sigus of idliog; hut the payment of the balance of the britio seemed doubtful, and they kicked. A c utcmptible aud redieulous spectacle do they now prescut. It is to maintain this condition of things that taxpayers contribute $366,- 000 per day f>r a standing army. This is the kind if‘l yal y’t e people are asked to endorsj and perpetuate. L iok at it! Too Rit'll To Bo Lost. In a country uot remote from this, a very ardent aud classical young lawyer was addressing a mixed multitude of white and black, favoring Democratic piinciplis and unmineis. In tbe crowd was a long, bandy-shanked, rather bald - headed, vnd elderly w gro man, who hud Waited on his young master through several campaigns, tilt the close ol th war, hut who since the surrender, had become iuteoseiy ridieal B ggoled and I noisy, lie was a leader among the blacks, and food of.controversy. He stood up conspicuous in the crowd, with his hands to one oar, so that no word of the orator eouil escape him, for he bad given notice, that bo intended to make “acme pints” wi'fe them Ditnicrats, it they “uidiA plumb ihe track.’’ full of rhetoric and law was the speaker, that the old negro had almost despaired of comprehending any portion of the dis course, so as to make “a pint ” But at last, the speaker firing up with bis sub j-'cl, ;nl rising on tip-toe, exclaimed: “The truth is, fellow-cit zens, we tiro fighting over tbe great V at les of consti tutional liberty—not only for the priu ciplea ei-tablistxd by our revolutionary fathers—l ut for that precious 1 eritace f pir-onal and civil rights, wrested by the noble barons if England from tyran niotl King J >hn, on tho banks of the Rannimj male..” No quicker said than done.

A Ship Load or Hair —A curious cargo h. s just arrived at Havre. The French ship P/ophet, from Vera Cruz comes laden entirely with that comm’d ity, for which there never was, at any time siuce the beginning of the world, so great a demand as now—false hair, or rather real hair, to be used falsely. Tbe hair in question is almost all black and consist, in great part, of scalps of Apaches, Cammancbcs, and other native Mexican tribes. When the French army was in Mexico, many of the ludi ans fled in terror to get out of the way but they first hid in caves and woods tho bonos of their ancestors, and the trophies they bad won in war. Among the latter, none are more sacred than the scalps of enemies with the lung hi ir attached. Some tinart French specu lators, by the aid of bnbtry contrived ti discover the sanctuaries where these scalps were concealed, aud the result is an acquisition tor France wtich is ei pecltd at once to cause a fall in false hair in the great marts of Brittany, Normandy and Avergue; iD which provinces almost all peaseut girls soil thi ir hai r early, and wear a cotton hand kerchief round their heads for the rest of their lives. At present tbe merchan diz3 is filthy to behold, and smells so bad as to infect a wiiolo port. But the owners say that when well washed and purefied by steam, it will beoome beau tifully soft and glossy, and, bo doubt, next season much of it will fl at over the most fashonabie necks in Paris.
