ATLANTA, GEORGIA.
Wednesday March 16, 1870.
Corerncr Bullock andCeorsla.
We yield what space we have this morning,
to the remarks made by Governor Bullock
before the Senate Judiciary Committee, on the
2d instant, on the “Georgia Question,” which
we copy trom the Washington Chronicle. We
do so in order that onr readers may’ understand
from a perusal of the document itself, vrhst the
Governor did say before the Committee, and be
cause his remarks form a very mate rial portion of
the history of the conflict which took piace be
fore the Senate Judiciary Committee, between
the contestants, Bryant, Caldwell and others,
and Governor Bullock; and because, also, it is
one of those state papers in which the people of
Georgia are deeply interested, and to which we
may have to make reference in the luture. We
preler, too, presenting to our readers, notwith
standing its length, the whole of, rather than
extracts from the reinaiks made by Governor
Bulloch, for the reason that the readers of this
journal can then judge of the force, or weakness
of liis views, lor themselves, not being mi-led
by a garbled extract from them, or misinformed
by the withholding of anything he did say before
the Committee.

Atlanta ami Her Printing Faeilltlcn.
This is a matter meriting greater public at
tention than it receives; and we allude to it lor
the purpose of illustrating that this branch ol
industry lias kept in full pare with the wonder
ful growth of the city. The result is that
printing, a luxury that lormerly could b in
dulged m by only the more solid business and
professional men, is now within easy reach ol
all; and where in other years hundreds and
thousands of dollars were expended by our mer
chants in Northern cities lor printing, the Minis
now sent ofl In that way are insignificant. En
terprise and energy have remedied the latter
evil by nil increase ol Atlanta’s facilities id
the printing line*, until prices have become
sufllcienlly reasonable to not only retain
home patronage, but to attract a vast
amount from other towns and cities.—
This is as it should be, and we refer to it
with pride and pleasure. Flattering as lias been,
and is, the success ol Atlnntu c miinercially,
she is emulous of greater things, and looks for
ward to becoming the central marl for a huge,
populous and wealthy region ol country. '1 ins
she may become in every sense, and not least
among her adjuncts of wealth and greatness
may be enumerated her Printing. Books cau
be published here satisfactorily as to style of
execution and price, not to mention other leaser
things in the same line, if the least encourage
ment is given to those engaged in the business,
and it is gratifying to know tbal a marked im
provement in that particular is perceptible. It
is popular with our people to reter with piide to
the numerous substantial commercial houses,
foundries, rolling-mills, machine shops, &c, ol
which the city can boast, but conspicuous men
tion has not been made ot her Printing Houses.
It will be pardonable in us, therefore, to allude
to them tor the purpote ol showing liow great
are the facilities of Atlanta in that particular:
The Franklin Steam Printing House justly
stands first on the list as the largest and most
complete establishment in the city, and w ilti .nk
with many more pretentious printing houses in
the South or North. It Las perhaps the finest
lot of nresses ol uuy office iti the South ; whilst
its facilities tor book and job woik are t xce’lent,
more especially the former. The “Fianklin”
is the only establishment having steam power,
and occupies the whole of a capacious and ele
gant three-story building on Broad street. It is
owned and controlled by J. J. Toon, E-q., with
a competent corps ot assisiants, and is doing a
prosperous business. This is also the publica
tion office of the Christian Index, a highly pop
ular and religious journal ot the Baptist per.-u i-
sion, as well as the publication office ot several
other papers.
Tuts Daily and Weekly Intelligencer
comes next on the list as the oldest and tns’
known printing establishment in upper Geor
gia. The existence of this office dates back to
tue early history ot the town ; and it possesses
presses and printing facilities equal to those ot
most establishments uot devoted exclusively to
book and job work. It is presided over by Col.
Jared Irwin WHITAKEr,and occupies a pi m-
ineni position in making up the aggregate ol
Atlanta’s resources in the line ol printing.
lhcDaity and Weekly Neio Era is next in age
and exieut of facilities. The public printirg of
the State is done at this establishment, and con
sequently its book printing material is extensive,
and greater than ns arrangements for job woik,
though the latter are excellent, and fully equal
to any emergency. This establishment ha- good
power presses, and enjoys a fine patronage.
The Daily and Weekly Constitution, being a
young establishment, lias devoted more time to
tho building up of a successful daily journal
thau to book and printing, notwithstanding it
has a good uew office, and is doing work to the
lull extent of its facilities. In addition to its
present presses, we learn that a steam engine
and two more new and elegant presses have
been ordered from a London manufactory.—
With this additional machinery, demandtd by
an increase ol patronage, the Constitution estab
lishment will accelerate its now rapid strides on
the road to prosperty. It is presided over by
W. A. Hemphill, Esq., and is located next to
the “ FrankliD,” on broad street.
T. S. Reynolds, Esq., one ol the most accom
plished and, we may say, versatile prlnteis in
the South, conducts a successful job business »u
Alabama street. Though small, his office is a
good out, and his specimens ot printing are
equal to any in the citj^. The inventor ot a
press himself, Mu. Reynolds is perhaps a more
thorough disciplo of Faust than any man in At
lanta, and unites with intelligence of a high or
der a mechanical ingenuity rarely found am mg
the cratt. Atlanta as a printing mart would he
incomplete without Mr. Reynolds.
The JDeutche Zcitung office, we believe, is con
fined exclusively to the getting out of its paper
iu German, and is uot prepared for book or job
work in that language at present. Yet, if called
upon so to do, the owners could probably issue
a book or pamphlet in German, and we m dee a
note ot it to show bow almost any demaud in
tlie line of printing could le responded to in
Atlanta.
Yet another printing concern might be men
tioned here, but modesty forbids! Suffice it,
there m another, the existence ol this sheet lu ing
tangible evidence thereof.
From the St. Loafs Time*
Iurz Romero—A Girl Who U Decidedly
Hot ot the Period.
During the residence of the Mexican Minister,
Romero, in the city, his handsome establishment
was presided oyer by his sister In< z, a young i
lady of about eighteen summers, and possessed
of more than ordinary beauty and inlel’igence.
The signota had, in addiiion to her personal
attractions, the reputation ot being an heiress ot
great wealth. Had she been born in an humble
station, her remarkable musical talent would
have proved no inconsiderable tornine. Posses
sing so many attractive qualities, it was not sur
prising that the fair Inez was continually sur
rounded by a crowd of admiring diplomatic
attaches and Secretaries, who made love to her
in every modern language, and courted alter the
mode ol all the nations of Europe and America.
She was proof, however, against all the artillery
of “ signs, songs and serenades,” and notwith
standing the long seige which she withstood,
against a brigade of moustached and perfumed
exquisites, kept her heart free and untrammeled.
A devout Catholic, she was a daily attendant at
the morning religious service of her church,
and was notr d for her ceaseless and unwearied,
though unostentatious «Hurts to relieve the poor
and distressed. Letters ot recent date trom
Mexico, state that Miss Romero is disposing of
her fortune and means with the intention of
retiring from the world, and entering the Con
vent of the Visitation iu this city From a
young lady who was a schoolmate of Miss
Romero, I derive the information that fince
childhood it has been Miss Romero’s intention
to devote herself to the education and instruc
tion of youug girls, believing that to be the
highest and noblest duty to which a woman
could devote her lime aud talents.
Much of the vice and immorality of the pres
ent age is according to the lair Mexican, attri
butable to the want ol proper moral aud reli
gious training in those who are Destined to be
come the mothers and the guides ot the men
and women who make up society. The young
lady who has had the coursge to make this great
sacrifice in the interest ot her sex is expected
here during the coming week, and will at once
put lur design in execution by assuming Iht-
habit and duties ot a novice in the visitation
convent. Alt the embryo diplomats and shoulder-
strapped exquisites about Washington are, like |
Mantaliui, iu n “ demiiilion rage," and swei
terrible at the I’ope and Papists. The lair Mex
icun’s dollars are deMined to serve other pur
poses than to supply some diplomatic noodle
with cigars and line clothes, and heuce illae
lachrymal.
The Cuban Leader.
General Quesada, whose arrival iu New York
from Cuba has been chronicled, states that the
whole Cuban army comprises some 50,000 men
ol whom only 20,000 are armed with rifles and
carbines, and the rest with machettes. The
General speaks most confidently ot the certainty
of die ultimate success ot the war of indepen
deuce. Arms and ammunition are scarce, but
are becoming less so day by day, inasmuch a3
experience has taught by what method and at
what points the requisites can be most safely
landed. The General is a man only thirty-eight
years of age, over six leet in height, and, though
most calm and modest, in his demeanor, his ex
pression stamps him as a man of much charac
ter and discrimination. He is a Dative of Puer
to Priucipe, has served lourteen ydars in the
Mexican army, rose in that to the rank of Gene
ral of division, aud has been at different limes
military governor of ihe Slates ot Fuebla, l)u
rangn and others. His military career in Mex
ico was such as to insure him, had he chosen to
remain in the service of that republic, the very
l igliest poft to which any foriiguer may aspir,
but iiis love of counuy induced him to lorswear
all gifts ot fortune abroad, in order to devote
himself, boiy and sou!, to iheservice of Cuba.—
His children have been for some years at a
fctiool in this country, and his wile, whom he
left iu Nassau, is expected here by the next
steamer.
A Lost Gkohgian Found.—The Wilmington
Star contains the following:
As the- Wilmington & Manchester train was
coming in on Tuesday night, and when about
st ven miles trom the city, a man by the nameot
Omer, from Athens, Ga., was suddenly missed
frogi the train, and as nothing could be seen or
heard of him afterwards, considerable uneasi
ness was tell ns to his probable la’c, particularly
by a friend of his on the train at. the time, who
was inclined to suspicion of foul play. He has
siuce arrived iu this city, however, and stales
that he was taken suddenly sick on the night in
question, and went out on the platlorm, where
he tainted and fell oft. He was not discovered,
and remained there unlit morning, when he
made his wav to a house in the vicinity, from
whence, alter refreshing himscll, he came to the
city.
Bloody Tragedy.—Last night two men,
named Vivrelt and Murphy, became involved
in a quarrel at SpriDg Place, six miles Out on
the Lebanon Pike. Several shots were ex
changed by the parties. Yivrett was killed on
the spot and Murphy shot, through the lungs
and mortally wounded. The Vivrett killed is
a brother of the Vivrett wounded some time
since iu an affray at the Louis.file Depot. At
10 o’clock last night a man rode iu from the
scene of the tragedy for the purpose of securing
the services of a surgeon, though it was thought
that Murphy could not live till morning. A
singular late appears to follow ilie Vivrett
family’’, as already two or three of the brothers,
as well as the father, have bceu shot and killed

the
TlTK “ MODESTY ” OF OCR FRIENDS Ol
’’ Economical Advertiser,” from w hich we
extract the loregoing notice ot “Atlanta and
her Printing Facilities," will not, we inis’,
cause them to blush, when we state, that under
the firm name of J. L Miller, & Co, their
“ Adrcrtiter ” is published—tLe firm being com
posed of Messrs. J. I Miller, W. H. Bailey,
B F. Bennett, and V. P. Sisson, gentlemen
formerly connected with this office, and nil emi
nently practical and expert in the “ Ai t ol
Printing.” The “ Advertiser” is issued horn
their “Book aud Job Punting House” on
Alabama street, which has bceu well-fitted up
for that business, and which, wc trust, will en
joy a generous share of the printing patronage
which may’ be bestowed upon the printing
houses ol the “ Gate City.”
The Philadelphia Supreme Court has de
cided a case brought by the State against the
Philadelphia Saving Fund Society for $700,000
unclaimed deposits, which the Commonwealth
claimed to have escheated on the ground that it
consisted ot deposits the owners ot which had
■ liid leaving no lawful claimants to them. The
decision says: “ The proceedings to escheat
surplus funds being illegal both in its object
and its modes the Judge at nisi privs was right
in enjoining it. The net is contrary to law and
is prejudicial to the interests of the society and
its depositors. No one can doubt that an at
tempt to wrest trom it its surplus funds with
the apparent approbation of the court must im
pair it aud curtail its business, an! might sub
ject it to theso’zure ot its deposits, forcing it
either to suspend payment or to impair its assets
by sacrifices necessary to maintain its solvency.”
The Quitman Banner takes up the cudgel to
battle (or the good uame of its town, aud speaks
a good word for its prosperity. Quitman has
eighteen or twenty mercantile houses, tw T o hoteis,
time churihe?, one dentist, any quantity of doc
tors, lawyers and loafers — in all with a popula
tion ot 1,500 sou's—and says the Danner, we
challenge the world to produce prettier or more
intelligent women, more clever men, or as hand
some children—aud the latter we have iu abund
ance, though at as late a period as 1SG0 a baby
was a curiosity’ in Quitman.
The Bia:k»m Amendment to the Batter
BUI.
In the adoption by the House of the Bingham
amendment to the Buffer bill, for the admission
of Georgia into the Union, we see manifested, for
the first time since tbc close of the war, a dispo
sition, on ike part of that branch of Congress,
to heed the calls of our people for even-handed
justice, and to save the State from that extended
Republican rule, which, in the absence of that
timely, and, we may add, setting amendment,
would certainly be fastened upon her—-not two
more years only of that party’6 domination in the
State, but with that, who can tell how much long
er its power might be extended, or w hat other
political disasters might not follow these
two more years ot power? From this, the
Bingham amendment, for we believe -it will
pass the Senate, has^saved the State. Upon
this we congratulate the Democracy of Georgia.
From out of darkness, there now comes light
They will now soon have the opportunity given
them, which otherwise they would not bare, of
electing a new Legislature—one of different
political complexion to that which now exists a
blight upon our once grand old Commonwealth.
In view to this hopeful future, all that is re
quired of the Georgia Democracy is, a stern
adherence to the time hunoied principles of the
party, with no entangling alliances, no com
promises, to mar unity ot action, and we
shall then see Georgia redeimed, regenerated,
disenthralled, from Republican rule. To Mr.
Bingham, those Republicans who voted with
him, aud the gallant Democratic members of
the House who fought the good fight for Geor
gia, our people feel greatly indebted. They
have given new life to the Democratic party of
the State, renewed their spirits, and inspired
thc-m to labor, as of yore, zealously in the canse
of constitutional and good government. Our
advices from Washington, leave no doubt upon
our mind that the Butler bill, as it passed the
Home, will pass the Senate. These assurances
are to us as refreshing, as plentiful rains are to
vegetation after a long drought. Upon the
Democratic party of the State, which, “ defeat
ed,” has never yet been “ dismayed,” they must
have a like revivifying influence.
We have waited patiently for some such
reactiou in Congress, some such giving way of
injustice and oppression on the part of, at least,
a portion ot the Republican members, and
Senators—some such resistance of Butler’s dic
tation, and the majority who have acted with
him. The argument was long since exhausted;
denunciation and personal invective only re
sulted in renewed oppression ; expostulation and
pleading served no good purpose. Congres 9
was the power, and we felt satisfied that until
the Republicans in that body should split
among themselves, upon some point affecting
Georgia’s reconstruction and admission into the
Union again, no favor ot any character would
be extended to her, not even simple justice,
The split came, and tbe result is one unexpected,
but one upon which the Democracy of the
State have reason to congratulate themselves.

sistible appeal to its debtors :

We invite tile special attention of our
readers to the very interesting letter addressed to
the Intelligencer by the Kon. Mare A.
Cooper, w hick will be found in another column
oi this morning’s issue. It is one embracing
valuable information on the important topics
upon which it treats—the varied mineral re
sources of the State—and is corrective of some
errors, or defecis in the letter of Mr. Daddow,of
Pennsylvania, addressed to Mr. C. W. Howard,
of Kingston, in this State, which we published
some weeks ago. Our readers, especially those
oi them who feel an iuterest in the development
of the mineral resources of the State, would do
well to give the letter an attentive perusal.
A Wise Conclusion.
The Sandersviile Central Georgian in its issue
of the 9 th instant, says: “We are fully persua
ded that nothing we can now say will have a
feather’s weight in political matters, and pm
pose to lay the matter under the table for the
present,” referring its readers to the telegraphic
column, for “ information in that line.”
This is a wise conclusion to which the Geor
gian has come at last; one at which we arrived
some months ago, so far as the political condi
tion of the State was concerned in regard to the
question of Congressional reconstruction and
other matters connected with the State Govern
ment. Not long since we were berated by the
Georgian because we refrained from entering
into the wild crusade indulged in by others
against “ the powers that be,” and who held the
destiny of Georgia in their han is—so far as the
reconstruction question was concerned—im
pressed with the irresistible conviction that it
would do no good, and that personal invective
and abuse of them, would do much harm. But
now. the same Georgian, seeing its folly, has
become “ persuaded ” into our opiuion, at least
so far, that nothing it can say “ will have a
feather’s weight in political matters.” We con
gratulate it heartily, that its eyes are at last
opened, and commend it for coming to the wise
conclusion that “ it should be the object ot the
editor of a newspaper to write only such arti
cles as he believes are calculated to benefit his
readers and the country at large.”
De Bow’s Monthly Review.—The Feb
ruary No. of this highly esteemed and popular
work is on our table. This journal was estab
lished in January, 1846, and through all the
vicissitudes of fortune, still survives. In the
days of its prosperity, we were for a number of
years a subscriber, and constant reader of the
Review. We find tbe ptesent number fully sus
tains its former well earned reputation. It is
filled with “ Agricultural, Commercial, Industri
al Progress and Resources,” matter, and is
strictly a Southern work, and always has been.
Those desirous ol information on the interesting
topics of which it treats, will do well to sub-

The Financial Chronicle ot March 5. says :
The market has been completely unsettled by
the action commenced ten day3 ago by Messrs.
A. T. Stewart & Co., in offering prims at great
reductions trom the ruling market price. It is
useless to speculate as to the object ot Mr.
Stewart in taking the trade by surprise with his
extraordinary “flank” movement: the fact ot
tbe movement and its results are ot more im
portance to our readers. It seems to be quite
evident that the effect will be, and it was in
tended to be, something much more permanent
than merely to draw tbe attention of buyers to
the Dry Goods Palace on the corner ot Broad
way and Chambers street. The result has al
ready been shown in a genera! reduction of
prices in .prints, in many brands of bleached
and brown goods, and also in imported dress
goods. It may be tairly said that tbe move
ment was inaugurated by tbe most prominent
dry goods merchant in the United States, and
his deliberate opinion as fo tue course ot busi
ness in the immidiate luture, as Bhown by this
important reduciion in goods, is e-vtitled to
much weight. The range of cotton and gold
have recently been such as to warrant lowtr
prices, and since the first rush at Stewart’s
store the teudency of these has been down
wards, confirming in a remarkable manner tbe
anticipations which he probably held of such a
course ot affairs.
The market closes iu an unsettled condition,
with a downward tendency in those goods which
have not already been reduced iu price.
The New York Mercantile Journal, comment
ing on the same state ot affairs in the metropolis,
says, bitterly:
“It is seldom that we are called upon to re
port more disgraceful operations, carried on un
der the pretence ot doing a legitimate business,
than the course pursued oy Messrs. A. T. Stew
art & Co., in opening small lots ot prints and
other goodsf and offt ring them (to those whose
vigor ot muscle- would eunble them to grab and
retain a portion ot them) at less than cost, with
the view ot making ialse quotations in oi der to
disturb the market and break prices. Bnsiuess
at best has keen unprofitable during the post two
or three years,-and an attempt to unduly depress
values aud injure trade, to the great detriment
ot the average range of dry goods houses, is a
wrong which all business men ought to resent.
By combined action on the part ot dry goods
jobbers, manufacturers and others concerned,
the would-be king can t»e easily dethroned.—
Such action should be taken at once in the pre
mises as shall teach Messrs. A. T. Stewart &
Co., that they cannot ride roughshod over the
trade with impunity.
We have no hesitation in saying that if a firm
of moderate capital should pursue such an
unbusiness-like course they would he compelled
to go out ot trade at an early date for lack ot
purchasers of their goods, as well as a lack of
parties who could be lound to sell them even tor
cash.
We have been asked the question whether we
thought the goods which were thus opened as
“drives” in this unprecedented manner, were
really taken by bona fide buyers or not ? But we
decline making any reply, further than to con
demn in unmeasured terms that mode of doing
business Other houses, by way of honorable
competition, occasionally put“ drives ” upon tbe
market, bat we have yet to learn ot another
concern that refused to sell whole lines at the
price to any party who would comply
with tbe terms ot sale. The very idea ot
selling five to eight cases out of a large lot
at a figure so low that it would induce
buyers to act like wild animals scrambling for
their prey, and then within five minutes there
after to refuse to sell any more unless at an ad
vance of ten to fifteen per cent., is an outrage
upon country buyers as well as cotemporaries
oi the trade.
The heavy decline in gold which has taken
place during tbe past tew weeks has unsettled
the price ot cotton and caused a decline to an
extent which has had a depressing effect on
values of all cotton fabrics. This influence has
been counteracted in a measure, however, by
the needs of the country tor immediate con
sumption. Ticks, denims, stripes, osnabnrgs,
cotiODades, and kindred goods, are all dull at
quotations.
A very intelligent lady ot this city, just re
turned from a tour through the Southern States,
fells us she went out there a coufiimed black
Republican, and came back a fu 1-fledged Demo
crat. No intelligent or reflecting person, she
says, can go there even for a day without seeing
that the prevailing condition ot things is forced
and unnatural. The negroes are elated with
their sudden elevation and put on all sorts oi
airs, especially when in the prtsence of whites,
who are known to belong to the class that is
proscribed and denied all political rights by the
National Government In giving expression to
their jubilant feelings, the blacks are insulting,
overbearing and abusive ot this class of whites,
knowing that they are countenanced in so doing
by the government officials, and will be sus
tained by them in case of any show of loicible
resentment. This is especially the case in the
city ot Charleston, where the negroes are indis
putably supreme, and “ ride rough shod ”
over the proscribed class of whi es —
As an instaoce of the tyranny and injus
tice that prevails in that city, she was
told that tbe assessment ot taxes to pay the ex
penses of that city was last year over six hun
dred thousand dollars, and less than one hundred
dollars of this aornunt is paid by the negroes
and carpet-baggers who administer the affairs of
the city. In all the States where she went, she
lound it relatively the 9ame— the negroes upper
most and sustained there by the arbitrary power
of the government—too ignorant to have any
just appreciation of the real condition or signifi
cance of things, but imitative enough to follow
the lead of the carpet-bagger, and demonstra
tive enough to make manifest his sense ot the
fostering power of the government by acts and
expressions that are insulting and abusive to
wards taose who are UDder tlie ban of the gov
ernment “Republican” is the name given to
this condition of things at the South, but in re

Ban Francisco custom house officers have
to look sham for opium, which pavs for smog-
sling, on account of a dnty of 100 per cent
The last steamer from China brought over
several hundred dollars worth of opinm, which
it was intended should pay no duty. It was
found in a heavy chest, most innocent looking,
whose thick sides were hollow and filled with
the drug. A consignment ot Chinese pails was
also found to be made of opium with a shell of
wood forming the outside of each. Several
dozen pairs of shoes gave up their contents,
contained in tin cases let into the thick soles. A
handle of feather dusters held a lot, and one
Mongolian was stripped ot his high waterproof
boots to reveal his legs swaddled in the precious
drug. ^ ^
A Rap at the Girls.—An Omaha lecturer
tbns discussed the question the other night:
“ Twenty years ago the ladies were their own
dress makers, aDd how beautiful they looked to
the brave men who then courted them. Then
they wore no hoops, no switches, no anything,
but were just as God made them. A lover could
then tt II whether hi3 love weighed one hundred
eighty or seventy-five rounds; could tell at a
glance what she was. But now they could nbt
fell whether Ihe girl was made by the dress
maker or by God; they looked her over, and
were not sure she was not half cottou; touched
her head, aud didn’t know whether Ib^y left
nature’s hair or a musty waterfall. Twenty
years ago we were all better, looked better, and
were better Christians. We had progressed for
the worse, aud as we continued so would the
boys follow.”
