Funny.
This ittddcn ebullition In regard to
Bryant may fool gome peoplo outside
of the State in regard to the virtuous
indignation of some Georgians, bntit
will be regarded hero as altogether
funny in place of being serious. Of
course Bryant ought to go, but how
comes it that Bryant is in apoeition to
render this either pleasant or neces
sary ? A Washington special says:
Gen. John B. Gordon, of Georgia. called on
the Attorney-General to-day, and protected in
the name of the good character o! the State of
Georgiaegelnattbe longer retentiontnoffice
ot United States Marsha! Bryant. He declared
that Bryant was not only offcniive a, a parti
san, but ai a man. and that hla removal from
plfte waa demanded by the people whom he
had on the etump end elaewhere traduced.
What is the sudden necessity of im
porting a citizen of New York
to Washington, to bulldoze the tardy
Attorney-General as to Bryant’s walk
ing papers? Bryant is no more offen
sive to the honest and respectable peo
ple -of Georgia now than on the first
day of his arrival. One tithe of the fuss
now being made could have kept him
out of the oflice he now enjoys. The
Senators from Alabama prevented a
fellow just like Bryant from being ap
pointed marshal in that State.
Is it not funny that neither Brown nor
Colquitt complained of this horrible
man when he was appointed? And is
it not strange that Col. Crenshaw's
deputies cannot get along with Bry
ant’s deputies, and yet harmonize with
Marshal Wade’s deputies? The lino
between the two districts in Georgia is
an imaginary one. Only the other
day and there was published
in these columns proof of the infamy
of one of Marshal Wade’s deputies, and
yet Colonel Crenshaw's deputies can
get along with such, but cannot stand
Bryant’s deputies.
Such stuff as this cannot deceive sen
sible men.
The people who put Bryant in for n
purpose have used him and now desire
to put him out. Nobody objects to this
movement; the objection lies against
the published motive. What reason
cals out in the States of Ohio and Vir
ginia, and laying down the formula by
which their successors aro to he put in.
As the same process will probably be
applied to Georgia,our Representatives
and parties desiring post-oflicea can
read and go to work.

The Sonny South saye: “We are pleased
to know that President Cleveland has too
high an appreciation of the responsibilities
resting npon him in hla new position to
pley the big elepbeot in public paradea yet
awhile. The Commercial convention will
doubtless be a sucress without his pres
ence, and it were better, perhaps, for the
people to purine their avocations these
bard times, than to rash to Atlanta to see
a popular President. One of the most dis
gusting of all human frailties is lta uncon
querable tendency to man-worahlp.”
The South ha, voted solidly for twenty
years the Democratic t'cket in order to rid
herself of the Republican harpies who prey
opon her peace and retard her progress.
If the end to which she has labored be not

Oar esteemed friend of the Greensboro
Workman has written up the Ltnler fam
ily, whence the gifted Georgian poet
sprang. The great-grandfather of the poet
came from Kngland. Hit name was
James. His son S-tmpsnn was born in
Rockingham county In 1765. He married
Betsy Massey. They had nine sons and
three daughters. Of these sons one was
(Sterling, and be«Iived in Mississippi. He
was the father of 8fdney Lanier, the poet.
The Workman gives the history of the
family with some fnllness. The poet left

Thie le, in short, to pics out the most
obnoxious and offensive partisans in earh
county to the number oi a uix>h to aqnS
ter of all, pnd choose tirat-qlisa men lo
Uke their placet. I will require no mjre
proof of partisanship in these selections
than the affirmation of knowV'e on the
part of a Representative or Senator that
tho postmaster has bfen an acti/e eiitor
or proprietor of a Republics i newspaper
printing oflenstve articles, easily i-howjUjy
slips: or a stumn sj-eakc*, or member^ a
political committee, or (.(licf-r of a cam
paign club, or organizer of political meet
ings, or that his office has been made the
headquarters of political work, or that his
clerks have been put into the perfo*raance
of political duties. Poisibly other acts of
equal force may be noted in some cases.
U the Representative does not know the
fact, It should be established by some af
fidavit of some person whom he cm affirm
to be of unquestioned credibility, or by
some documentary evidence.
In recommending for appointment, I
beg the Representative will state the age,
bntine(8 and what kind of onsineta expe
rience, and a description of the business
character of the applicant, and also of bia
habits nnd standing iu the community. It
would be well to tile evidence showing that
he will be satiafactary to the community,
and when there are various candidates I
•ball be obliged by any explanation which
the Representative can give.
This necessarily imposes a little trouble,
and yet not very great, but it seems to me
reasonable to require very extraordinary
caro and troabla enough to be taken to
represent the facts. The earln st removals
and appointments of this kind will chal
lenge the keenest scrutiny. The former
mait be juitifiible and the latter beyond
criticism. Some mistakes have peroaps
occurred, and our adversaries are keei ly
interested to make the most of every fault,
because they have perceived n strong cur
rent of general Hpprobation of the purposes
of the administration.
In rendering this justics to our people
which consists of the removal of enemies

It is very desirable to proc« ed with extreme
care, and that I am correctly representing
the President’s wishes and purpofd in
earnestly Bollciting that every step may be
taken accordingly. I may add that as the
common good is infinitely beyond the wel
fare of auy one person, however great his
place, so appointments to further a mere
personal < nd, ehould be absolutely forbid
den, and recommendations upon that basis
may well expect disfavor.
1 shall very willingly take up the case ot
any district or of any county, whenever
they are ready; andXlballbi glad if the
Representative can personally attend and
go over them. Papers ahoola be tent in as
coon as poss hie, and will bo then careful
ly briefed in the department; and when bo
made ready appointments can be nude
with great rapidity.
Should you think it desirable to have a
personal conference belore this is begun,
I shall be very glad to meet the delega
tion.
Bnt as I have felt It desirable to relieve
thamof unnecessary Journey leg and ex
pense, I have written a similar letter to
etich Representative from Ohio, and re-
npectfully solicited reaponiive notion in ac
