Amid the profound humiliation felt
hy the people of the South at the
anoiuulous state of things naturally
produced by carpet-lmg usurpations)
it is, indeed refreshing at times to find
iu one of our Northern Exchanges such
paragraphs as we here copy.
The extract is taken from a letter of
a trenchant correspondent of the New
York U'orld, who giving a description
of the flashy and unchaste cyprians
■who are daily frequenting the lobbies
of the capitol, and cunningly manipu
lating depraved Congressmen for the
ends and purposes of Radicalism
says :
Os no precise locality, savo one, is it
possible to predicate as to Senators a
general preponderance of corruption
over honor. That locality is the South.
These Senators are her carpet-bag
scum and tyrants, adventurers in ca
reer, bankrupts in character, the re
pudiated of one section and top-froth
of another, they come to the Senate,
corrupt, with nothing to loso and noth
ing noble to gain, reckless of responsi
bilities, and' eager for money and
coarse pleasure, knowing only enough
to rer.lxze that their oflicial being ends
with their first term. The long ab
stinence of their section from patron
age, and super-abundance of patriotic
emigrants down there ready to adopt
office for a living so soon as they have
made use of and been found out by
the negroes, both tend to multiply
candidates from that quarter, whose
nomination devolves largo opportunity
on these l>ogus Senators Therefore,
if it is with these that the woman hun
ter has to deal, her path is easy. Her
man manager gives the honorable#
lucre, she gives them lust, and pence
and prostitution and secure an instant -
ly favorable report.
Latest New* from Atlanta.
Tlio following is tbo latent news
from the scat of war as telegraphed to
the Macon Messenger :
Atlanta, January 25.—The Senate
met and adjourned to-day without do
ing anything.
The House met this morning, but
did nothing and adjourned, by Bul
lock’s and Tony’s order, till 3 r. u.—
Met again ut 3 r. m., and anbtlier order
was promulged adjourning the House
until 10 a. ji. to-morrow, when, it is
thought, another order will be received
for the House to organize.
It is generally believed that Terry
will settle the eligibility question un
der instructions from Washington,
a'id that but few if anv will be ext ul

Radical Extravagance.
The Morning Meres says : Represen
tative Dawes of Massachusetts, Chair
man of the House Committee on Ap
propriations, made a sjieech in the
House ou the 18th which is attracting
much attention. In it he charges that
tho present administration, instead (f
S r aeticing economy, as it promised to
>, and as many of tho people have
been led to believe that it has done,
has been guilty of extravagance bo
yond that which prevailed under the
administration of Andrew Johnson.
The discussion was on the bill for trans
fer of the Philadelphia navy yard to
league Island, and took a wide range.
Mr. Dawes opposed the bill. He saw
in it, and in all kindred projects, an
increase of the public expenditures
such as could never be justified before
the peoplo, and he warned Ids Radical
associates that they w to digging their
own political graves and preparing the
way for the speedy annihilation of the
Republican party. His views were
supported by facts and figures. The
estimates for the Navy Yards for the
next fiscal year, he said, were as fol
lows r Tho Portsmouth, N. 11., $577,-
000, against $50,000 last year; to
Boston, $747,341, against $100,000;
to New York, $833,511, against SIOO,-
000; to Philadelphia, $111,985, against
$25,000; to Washington, $551,775,
against $50,000; to Norfolk, $258,-
312, against $30,000; to Mare Island,
$92,423, against $30,000. In short,
the Secretary of tho Navy proposed,
besides the SBOO,OOO for League Is
land, a total expenditure of $3,007,-
394, against $451,000 last year.
The speech was a neat exposure of
the hypocrisy of the Radicals in claim
ing that the Government expenses
were less now than they have hereto
fore been. We hope it will do some
good. It probably will open the eyes
of not a few to the fact that under the
cries of “retrenchment,” “economy,”
and “reform” the finances of the coun
try are being deliberately squandered,
as well as to the additional fact that
Grant, notwithstanding all the big
promises made at the beginning of his
administration, is either indisposed to
run the Government on a safe and
economical basis, or else is wholly
powerless to protect the people from
the extravagant notions of the men he
has called around him. Mr. Dawes
has done well to sound the alarm when
and where he did, and the Radicals
will also do well if they give it heed.
The people are slow to condemn, but
when they do move they crush out the
£bjocta of their wrath utterly.
The Ucorgia Situation.
GENERAL SHERMAN'S VIEWS.
SENATOR XORTON CONDEMNS THE ACTION
THE RADICALS IN GJtOKOIA.
Washington, January 18, 1870.
Senator Norton then got the floor, and
charged the Railicals with attempts to
organize the Legislature of Georgia
with the bayonet; that General Terry
and Governor Bullock were convening
and ndjouming tho Legislature ut
their pleasure ou military order, and
by military tribunals determining Xvho
are entitled to seats, etc.
Senator Edmunds replied that if
they were doing so it was upon their
own responsibility, and not by author
ity of law.
GENERAL SUEIiMAN DEFENDS OEN. TERRY
WHAT IIE SAYS OK GEORGIA.
General Sherman, being interrogat
ed this evening as to the facts in this
matter, makes tho following state
ment : »
“The dispatch published to-day that
General Terry had convened a court
martial to-day was absurd. He has
merely convened a board of three of
Ids officers, who are examining all the
cases of members of tho Legislature
and other elected officers who may bo
disqualified for bolding office under
tho Fourteenth Amendment aud the
Reconstruction Acts.
“General Terry could have conven
ed three c itizens if he had so chosen,
but he thought that thruo of his own
officers would more fairly hear the
evidence and report to him the sever
al cases for his final action.” That
action will but be a dismissal from the
Legislature or other office, but Gener
al Terry will act more as an advisory
party to those who may be deemed
disqualified, and probably, under his
suggestions, they will return to their
constituents. It is certain that a re
election will be ordered in such eases.
“General Terry has no power to ar
rest and try members of the Legisla
ture who may be charged with peiju
ly. They will have to be tried by the
civil courts. The reconstruction laws
were absurd in Georgia up to tho hour
when the Legislature deprived certain
parties of their seats by reason of race
and color. Up to that hour all their
acts were legal and binding, including
the election of .United States Senators.
The act lately passed by Congress,
and under which Wo are now acting,
is simply amendatory of the recon
struction laws, so far as Georgia is
concerned, and tho duty of General
Terry is simply to carry out these
amendatory acts. In my opinion, all
the legislature can do is to commence
to do right just where they left off aud
went to doing wrong. All the laws
they passed previous to that time hold
good unless repealed in tho regular
way; and as for tho United States
Senators, clearly their election cannot
be annulled. In a word, the present
Senators hold good, as do all the laws,
as I have before said.
“General Terry is after no office.—
Ho will do liis duty promptly and
fairly, and my instructions to him are
to study the law and act upon its lit
eral sense as near as possible.
“General Terry will not have any
thing to do with tlio partisan squab
bles there, and he has so informed
numerous parties who have tried to
oulist him ou their particular side.
“If the Legislature have a quorum
they can go on and pass the fifteenth
amendment and ho soon admitted into
the union of iState.
“As soon as we discover an officer
of the army mixing in politics, or run
ning for political office, or using his
influence for that purpose, wo expect
him to resign.” He cited an instance
of an officer running for a position in
Virginia, and who, he said, was atten
ded to at once, and remarked: “It
General Ames is a candidate for Sen
ator in Mississippi I am not officially
aware of it, and will certainly attend
t) the matter when I am in possessi >n
of the proper facts.”
He then declared with some degree
of warmth that he was proud of the
officers of the army who had the re
sponsible, trying, and delicate duties
to perform in the South under tho re
construction acts, and claimed that
there was not one of them as yet who
had not shown a great degree of sat
isfaction when they were ordered to
turn over the control of tho States to
the civil authorities, and thus surren
der the all-powerful sceptre, as it wero,
that tho reconstruction acts had placed
iu their hands.
Ho said: “Tho only fear is that
when the military power is withdrawn
tho civil juries will not tlo their duty
honestly ; but it is not according to tho
genius of our country that we should
have a continual military government
over any State, and hance the desira
bility of giving them all a chance.—
Tho troops, however, will uot be with
drawn from the Southern States for
several years to come. They will be
necessary, perhaps, to aid United
States marshals and the revenue offi
cers. ’’ —Itichmond JJispatch.
military Power in Georgia.
General Sherman has boon heard to de
clare that there should be no political
or partizau bias in tlio- military man
agement of affairs in Georgia. Then
he had better go to that Stato himself
Bullock, Blodgett & Cos. are tho only
obstacles in the way to a peaceful and
haimouious solution of matters in
Georgia. They have secured the pas
sage of one of the most infamous, un
just and unwarranted acts that over
received the sanction of Congress rep
resenting a free peoplo, and they will
uyj tho extraordinary power which
this act confers upon them for parti
zan purposes. That is the object for
which it was passed. It was to give
Bullock and Blodgett bayonets with
which to assert their power over the
people of the State. The title of the
act is a misnomer. It should have
been entitled an act authorizing Bul
lock and Blodgett to call to their aid
such military force as will enable them
to rule the people as they please, and
rob tho State treasury at their pleas-1
ure. —Detroit Free Tress.
Tli« Only II (*«• for IT*.
The Mobile Register strike* the key
noto of tlio final deliverance of tho
country from the bonds of tho common
enemy, in a recent article intended to
point out tho folly and danger of a
third party. We heartily endorse its
arguments and conclusions, and adopt
ns our ow n this much of it.
Tho urgumout it says, is that be
cause we are weak wo must weaken
ourselves still further by intestine di
visions. While every white man is
needid at the front, wo are counselled
to “despair of the Republic,” to wrap
ourselves in the weakness of our
Southern isolation, and to reject with
scorn and contempt every hand that
is stretched out to help and every
plank that floats within our reach to
savo us. It is the argument of de
moralized sailors when tho vessel un
der them is in danger of wreck, to
abandon their posts when all hands
aro called “to save ship,” and rush to
the spirit-room and meet their fato in
riot and drunkenness. This is not tho
part of men who love liberty and de
serve to enjoy it. That man never de
spairs and never ceases while life re-
mains, to aspire after and struggle for
the freedom with which God endowed
him. And how should the struggle
be made 'i Surely not by picturing
tho hopelessness of the public condi
tion and teaching men to sit down on
their chains in hopeless despair. Not
by throwing ourselves hack on our
vaunted deeds while war raged in the
field as an excuse for throwing down
our arms when the conflict is transfer
red to another forum. Not by organ
izing another party to distract and
divide us when our united strength is
demanded b y patriotism. But we
should look for succor and allies wher
ever we cau get them. So far as hu
man vision and human reason cau
instruct us, there is no hope of succor
except iu tho white men and in the
white party that exist in every State
and hamlet of tire United States who
aro opposed as we are to the atrocious
administration of the Radical power.
Admit that these allies aro not all we
would have them to be—at last we
must take them or none. They are
our best aud only hope. Reason,
prudence, statesmanship, alike com
mand us to cultivate and utilize them
to our own deliverance. Aud nothing
but cowardice or selfishness cau coun
sel us to break away from tho post of
duty on deck, aud counsol others to
desert and rush to tlio spirit-room, and
die the death of liberty in a drunken
debauch. We pursue and counsel no
such course. We have nailed the flag
of redemption and liberty to our mast.
Wo do not and will not despair of the
Republic. Who is despairing enough
to believe that thirty millions of people
in this great country, decendants from
the most intelligent and fighting race
stocks of tho earth, will surrender
thoir liberties to a party of base-born
fanatics and traitors without a fight ?
For one, w e do not. Thirty-seven
sovereign States cannot dio without a
struggle, and Ruritauisin will not
crown its Emperor or King of tho
United States until after torrents of
blood have been spilled, and American
manhood and patriotism have been
crushed out. —Telegraph Messenger.
