very sensible irtinle under the heading 01
“What we need,” ami save, “by way of a
< hittgp from eternal polities we propose t”
say a word about our nerds, as they effect
Southern character and manners.”
Well, wo cannot make an i«*ue with eithet
journal in regard to the sentiments expressed
snider the above headings, and will say iu onr
own behalf that since we have been m unit
ing the Journal if we have failed to uphold
the tiuth or rvhe avoke in behall of me
public intoreH it was because we were not ii
possession of tho facts. Piior to onr connec
tion with ftiis paper, (with all due expect u
those wl.o ii & pged i’,)ilic ink on the not.
given for the purchase, or the document m t -
ing valid the transfer, would hardly get d’r
lefore another transfer would be made, tlm*
taming the paper to Use what little i: flucuce
it might l ave exerted. Taking hold of tin
entciprise as we did, under such unfnvoiabl
circumstances, and eomparirg publio semi
ment naw wi.li what it was two yeats ago, w.
aro proud to acknowledge a generally ex
pressed appreciation of our unworthy efforts
in journalism. Kmd friends who have thm
upheld us, you are remembered with
gratitude, nnd we assure you t! at none of ths
varied interest! of our section shell slumber
for want of an advocate to trumpet their
r orth.
As to “wlut we nerd," who does not de
sire a cfcango from eternal poli'ice t True,
we mourn over the remembrance of a politic
cnl treedom, bequeathed by our forefathers,
ar.d unequaled by any power or government
on earth, but tosday we are gt oping about it
miduight darkness, oppressed on every hand,
listening to stetimeats uttered with seeming
truth, that are not only shocking but insult
ng to the intellect and sensibilities of every
te’clligcnt mind. We are told the sin lies »■
Uou'heni doors: perhaps sc, but the tint* 1
will be when impartial j ujgra shall criticisr
the records that the opposite will be piovet.
The existing state of things was foreseen al
tar the war, and after the organization o'
tadical legisi-itien, they were compelled to
exist as a natural consequence. Why? Be
cause a great prnpsmou of the more erpeti,
euced and Intelligent people of the South
were excluded by the State Constitutions and
by au amendment to the United Stales Con
stitution from all rhare iu the government..—
In this way not only were the negroes euar.
auteed a voice iu the government affairs
but it was thought to be a fine field for cars
p:tbag adventurers. Beit g willing, as ail
good citizens should be to accept the situs'*
tion, we shall not fall out with the govern
ment for coufcriing the elective franchise on
the negro, but to recognize as worthy cil'zsns
those who would incite insurrection in the
minds of the ignorant Dcgro or lead h m ’o
believe that the Southern white man is his
avowed enemy, all the artillery and swords in
Christendom would not be equal to the task,
if brought to bear upon Southern pride by the
cjrpet-baggurs wto are tho principle repre
sritiMvesof the'radical party iu tho South.
And just here Is one of the ptinciple causes
wliy advarccmm' and progress is not the
watchword throughout the South. We ad
mit that lawlessness is practiced to seme exs
but in some localities in our owu S'ate. Do
these carpetsbaggers try to paiiate the evil ?
No! They get the I\u-K!ux side of the ques
tion, herald it to the Notlh, magnified a--
n uc'i as possible, without stopping to it quire
into the truth of the most palpably sounding
falsehood. We condemn, bitterly, those who
‘ would, m violation of law, perpetrate deeds
that engulf a community or section in trou
ble, anji while we do not endorse Gov. Bul«
look in his general administration, we thh k
the plan adopted by him of ferreting out
crime should be endorsed by every good citi
zen, to»wit: “Whatever complaint may go up
to the executive department of nn injury iu*
flicted, take the facts as stated, submit them
to the Judges of the Superior Courts, to be
turned over to sworn Grand Jurots for inves
tigation.” That is a good move. It is better
than quartering an armed soldiery on an in
nocent public, or the passage of Ku-Klux
hill -by Congress, Now, some mode of keeps
ing in subjection the mischievous carpet-bag
gers that infest every section of the South,
whose pens are ever ready to write a lie, and
whose highest ambition is to engender ani
mosity between the races, then public pros
perity will receive anew impetus, the poison
that seems to be infused into Southern tem
pers will be superceded by kindness and af
fection, and the manners, habits together j
with every domestic relation will be revived
and only equaled by the balmiest days of
North America when the interests of the two I
sections seemed to be so indissolubly con- j
uected.
Tuk Mkvpuis Ghost Sensation.— |
Tho finale of this sensation is rather ;
singular. On Tuesday night of last,
week, Mr. Robertson the father of tho
tho little girl who was tho medium by
which tho ghost was accustomed to
give her utterances to tho world, was ’
attacked while in his yard by four
men with pistols. Lie was compelled 1
by them to disclose the hiding place j
of the famous “jar” and was then
knocked senselosss by the party who I
made off with the jar. It has been I
suggested that tlio courts will have to 1
lake cognizance of tho ghost and its
wonderful development. t

Fifteenth Amendment.—Cocht of
Common I’i.eas —Jenin: Ludlow —Up
on the venire of jurors for service in
this court aro several quito respectable
colored men, and the buainea usually
goes on as it did before the war. This
morning, when a easo was about to bo
put on trial, a tall, Caucasian roso and
said:
“Judge-—I won’t serve as a juror.”
Judge Ludlow—“ What did you
say V”
Caucasian —“I won’t servo as a ju
ror.’’
Judge Ludlow —“Sir, I fine you
8200, and order you into custoly until
the fine is paid.”
Caucasian —“Very good; got your
money if you can.”
Judgo Ludlow —“I direct an officer
to take this man ”
Caucasian —“All right; let me rot
in prison.”
Judge Ludlow—“ See here, sir; what
docs this mean ? You appear to boa
respectable man, and I am loth to pun
ish a juror ; but you must collect your
senses, behave yourself like a man,
and know that you are in a court of
justice, whore such indignity cannot
be tolerated. Explain your conduct.”
Caucasian —“Well, tho truth Judge,
is that I will not sit upon aju
ry with a negro.”
Judgo Ludlow—“ That will not do,
sir. No matter what mon's private
opinions upon the subject may be, it
is now a part of tho law of the land
that colored citizens shall servo as ju
rors, and that wliito citizens shall also
sorve as jurors, and as a magistrate of
tho law 1 am determined to enforce it,
without consulting my own or any oth
er person’s individual sentiment res
pecting it. Tho presence of colored
jurors is no legal grounds for your ex
emption, and I shall havo to require
you to serve.”
Caucasian—“l won’t do it.”
Judge Ludlow—“Then sir, you must
pay tlio fine of 8200, and remain in
custody until it is paid, and every time
you refuse to servo on such a ground
as this one I will impose a like iiuo of
S2OO. ’
The Caucasian remained resolute,
and was escorted off by an officer.
“Is civilization a failure ? or has tho
Caucasian played out V — Philadelphia

If there aro white men enough in
Philadelphia to save it from relapsing
into African barbarism, they should
raiso a subscription to pay the tine in
flicted upou this out-spoKon Caucasian.
This was originally a white man’s gov
ernment. Had juries becni pro
posed at the time of tho adoption of
the Constitution, the proposition would
havo been spurned by nine-tenths, if
not nineteen-twentieths of tho Conven
tion which framed that instrument,
aud tho attempt now by a corrupt fac
tion, for their own selfish purposes, to
revolutionize our political and social
system, and degrade and demoralize
American fioomen, is a baso usurpa
tion and outrage which ought not to

Protection of Married Women.—
Anew law ou this subject, passed by
tho Dolawaro Legislature, provides
for tho protection of property of mar
ried women in case of separation from
their husbands. If a woman ongage
in business on her owu account, after
desertion by her husband, the new
law affords protection from any inter
ference by him in her affairs. This is
a very good provision, as under tho
old law a drunken or worthless hus
band could claim tho property of liis
wife, after deserting and leaving her
to mako a living for herself.

Tho Savannah Ade*rliter furnishes
tho following particulars of the move
ments and whereabouts of Gould, tho
defaulting revenue collector, furnished
by u rualiablo gentleman just from
Florida;
Gould arrived at Palatka on tho
morning of the 22d of March, and
proceeded to the Putnam House, kept
by George McGiuley, formerly of the
Screven House; of this city, andsoem-i
od very much surprised ut mooting Mr
MeGinley, not know'ing that ho was !
proprietor of that hotel. Shortly after!
his arrival, Gould informed MeGinley I
that ho felt very uuwell, and was ut I
once assigned to a room where ho ro- I
maiac-d ho entire day. not even Icav-1
ing it to tako his meals, but having
them carried up to him. Ho was at- |
tired in a dark suit with blue hunting I
shirt, and had with him a doubled bar- {
r- lc'd gun, powder and flask and shot j
pouch, as if on a. sporting tour. On j
tho evening of his arrival ho loft
' tho hotel, leaving behind-him powder
flask, which was seen by our infor
mant, hanging behind tho counter in
| tho office of the Putnam llouso upou
his arrival at Palatka; on tho Sunday
following tho departure of Gould, Ou
leaving Goul l took the boat for En
terprise, and our imformant having
business at another point took bis de
parture, hearing no moro of the ab
sconding Collector until ton days af
ter, when nn his return to Palatka ho
made inquiries and gained tho follow
ing further information relative to his
j travels: Upon arriving at Enter
prise, lie crossed the river on tho night
of tho 29th ult., paying a negro two
dollars for ferrying him across and
landing him in the woods near Mollon
viile ; at Which point ho passed under
. the assumed name of William Ilarris
j son. Our informant being compelled
( to leave Palatka, heard no moro of
the affair, but prior to leaving, was in
i formed by a reliable gentleman of tho
legal profession at Enterprise, that
should any other facts como to his
knowledge, ho would communicate
thorn to him by mail to Savannah.
Two davs after.tho arrival our im
foruiant in this city ho was apprised
by mail of further facts relativo to tho
i movoments of tho Collector. After re
maining at Mellonville long enough to
i perfect his plans for future movomont,
Gould employed and paid twenty dol
( lars to a man to convey him in a wa
; gon to Orlando, where he ‘assumed a
disguise, swapping his fine black coat
for a very dilapidafi and one, and his
boots for a pair old brogans, requiring
jno “boots” in the trade. When about
twenty miles Southwest of Mellonville,
I on his way to Orlando, he mad a puro
' chaso of a cream colored more from
: one Susan L. Cook, paying her one
| hundred and seventy . five dollars, for
i tho same. After purchasing tho ani
. mal, ho parted company with his
twenty dollar employee, and mounting
i with his double-barrelled gun and am
unition, ho bade adieu, under the as
sumed name of Jackson, and started
across “ l'ho Cross Prairie,” on the
road, as ho said, for Fort Capron. It
I seems to be the general opinion of
j those acquainted xvith tho country in
I the direction of which Gould was last
j soon to go, that ho lias, ere this., fallen
i in with some of the many cattle dro
vers in tho wilds of that portion of
Florida, and may remain there Until
tho matter of liis defalcation becomes
quieted down or forgotten, when ho
will doubtless emerge from bis cattle
j hunts and prairie sports, and tako
passage for other parts.

icatimi addressed to tho Chronicle and
Sentinel.
Miixedgeviixe, April 4, 1871.
Governor Jt. B. Bullock —Doar Sir :
I have had for somotiino serious doubts
as to the constitutionality of the Dis
trict Court, an 1 tlio legality of the of
ficial acts of its Jxidgea, and ori mas
turo reflection havo come to tho con
clusion that tho act of 28th October,
1870 organizing tho court, was a spo
cial or loeul'act, having excepted twen
ty of the forty-four Senatorial districts,
whilst the constitution, in its provis
ions for the come, required a general
law. (A court for each district.) Aud
in the second place, I learn that tho
act was passed after forty days had ex
pired, without a two-thirds vote for its
prolongation, which ispalpably in viola
tion of the plainly expressed terms of
tho constitution. I know that an in
terpretation of tho constitution, hy
some, makes tho third session tho sco
ond one, but tho trouble is, tho con
stitution don’t say so.
And in tho third piano, I am neith
er a do jure nor dr facto Judge, bccauso
my nomination was not confirmed by
the Senate. Tho Governor has tho
power to fill vacancies occuring other
wise than by death or resignation, but
it should bo done according to law, ul
lowing that a vacancy can occur where
tho office had never been previously
filled— yet tho Governor’s power to fill
vacancies applies only where there is
no other mode of filling them pointed
out by law. Now this act organizing
tho court points another mode, to-wit,
apjK>intment by the Gov, and Senate.
You will, therefore, please accept my
resignation. Yours respectfully,
Josnrir B. Qqkder.
