DffKl? JttteUtgtncrr ATLANTA, GEORGIA- WedJuly g « iB70. Tfce ■«*»• TwMll 7 l ;, A t e *p^ Attempt to intimidate tbe Fre»«* morning, as the Managing Editor ^ on his way from bin residence ? ^ace^f bnsiness, he was assaulted by fouat &er (son oi tbe unfortunate Treasu- ^ under the following circumstances: € *lhe Editor, not aware that Angier (or any one else) felt personally aggrieved at anything rest had been published in the Era ; not even ^ifnre that hlB personal relations with tbe Angers were of an UDtriendly or belligerent nature and, consequently, not anticipating a neraonal attack, was whoUy unarmed, having nothin w in bis hands or about his person except . lar<re“ umbrella, which be was carrying over nim at the time, and in such a position to pre lude a full view of the sidewalk, except itnme- iiatelv around or in lront of him. Thus peace ably walking the streets, with his mind upon his professional duties for the day, wholly un conscious that an assassin was laying in wait to aMault him, the Editor was aroused from his abstraction by a sudden blow with a walking cane aimed at his head, but striking the front ribs of the umbrella, and thence upon the hickory staff of the same, with great force, breaking the cane in two. One piece of tbe cane as it flew asunder across the umbrella handle, slightly bruised the skin on the Editor’s left cheek, but otherwise no damage was done. The Editor then tolded his umbrella and made at ADgier’s throat with his hands, (he beiDg wholly unarmed, even with so much as a pock et-knife,) when Angier again attempted to strike, but the blow was warded off this time by the Editor’s left arm. All this transpired in au in tent and no one seemed to be present until af ter the parties began to clinch for a struggle, when third parties interposed, and separated the antagonists. ... Thus ended tbe affair; but the narrative would be incomplete were it not here stated that, during this whole transaction, there was not (up to this time) a word spoken by either party nor by any one present; that Angier appeared to be well armed ; and that after an unsuccessful ef fort on the part of the Editor to arm himself, iu .Redwine & Fox’s Drug Store, (in front of which the assault was made,) he walked very leisurely to his office; that as he passed tbe crowd where Angier stood, the latter remarked, either to or of him: “ P^it anything more in that d—d paper about my lather, and I’ll blow your (or his) d—d brains out” We clip the foregoing extract from au ar ticle which appeared in the New Era of yester day morning, and have only to rematk in reler- ence to the rencontre referred to therein, that the streets ol the city should be the last place select ed to settle, by personal violence, real or imagi nary grievances, it being as well a violation oi the law, as it might prove perilous to peaceful citizens, passers by, during such occurrences. We enter our protest against any and all such violations ol law and order in our midst. A Word In Season. The Memphis Appeal regards the platform ol the Union reform party of South Carolina, as “ mean and craven.” To which the Nashville Banner very properly replies: “ Then the com mon tense which enables a people to look the inevitable in the face and to triumph over pro •criptive Radicalism by a live,liberal, progressive policy, letting tbe dead past take care ol itself, is to be ’mean and craven.’ It is easy to call names, but the idea of self-preservation cannot be driven into the thick skull of a Boui bon with a steel wedge and a hundred pound maul. Every other policy than tne AppeaVs is “ mean and craven,” and yet the Appeal's policy has accomplished nothing for itself, its party or the country lor ten years past, and will not for ten years to come.” The Commencement Exercises of the Southern Female College, at LaQrauge, be gan with the examination of its classes on Thursday last, and will continue till Wednesday next, on which day twelve young ladies will graduate and receive their diplomas.

The Last of the Income Tax. The Senate in its recent action upon the con tinuance of the Income Tax, has put a quietus to its existence. By an overwhelming majority it hssreftued to continue any tax upon incomes ; and as the existing tax expires this year by the limitation of the authorizing act, it follows that the country Is hereafter to be freed from this offensive impost Nor is this all the relief that the people have a right to expect The ampli- u jd« of the current revenues, exceeding all the official estimates, indicates that we can well »flord to dispense with fully $35,000,000 of the receipts from customs; and if this be not grant- Personai oosslp.

When first attacked, his lordship paid uo attention to the disease, which, operating on a debilitated system, soon became dangerous, and within three days terminated fatally. Bishop Griswold, ot Massachusetts, once said to a clergyman who asked hint why he was so often silent, when he had so much to say that was worth saying ■: “1 talked as much as aDy body when I was young, and 1 said a great many foolish things that I have been sorry for , 1 have never been sorry tor anything that 1 never said.” A young man in Nevada bad courted a young lady ol New England by mail, and ex changed photographs. An engagement was made, and the young lady started over the Pacific Railroad to meet and marry her affi anced. On her arrival, however, she promptly declined the alliance, avowing that while his lace looked well enough, she “would never wed with snch a little spud of a tel low as him.” Souiliern Youth. The elders of the South may fail in their high mission, and feel disposed to fall by the wayside, weaiy with the struggle lor Constitu tional Liberty; but the young men, nay, even tbe boys, among us, are made ot better stuff, and will some day, on the arena ot reason, raise the standard of principle unshrinkingly, and bear it on to victory. Our daily experience warrants us iu this belief, and cow and then, an illustration ot its truth is heroically devel oped. The most remarkable instance that has recently come to our knowledge is thus detailed by the Richmond Dispatch : “ A boy named Baldwin Alexander, about seventeen years of age, residing m Pulaski county, Virginia, having been appointed a cadet at the Naval Academy by Representative Gib son, ot Virginia, underwent thorough examina tion, and passed. He made a favorable im pression upon the Board of Examiners and file Secretary of the Navy, and bis appointment was confirmed; but when asked to take the test oath, he declined, asserting that although he was a mere child at the com mencement of the war, and but twelve years of age at its close, his associates, surround ings, etc., had created a sympathy in his mind and heart for those around him; and to swear that he had not sympathized with or countenanced the ‘ rebellion,’ wou d be base perjury, and he could uot do so. He could take all the remainder of the oath but those two terms. His honesty and candor elicited encom turns from the naval authorities, and Meuator Johnson took the matter in hand and tried to have the youth admitted upon taking the proper constitutional oath. The law on the subject is imperative, and the Secretary ol the Navy to day informed Senator Johnson that Alexander could not be admitted to the Academy as a ca det unless he subscribed to the iron-clad oath. Senator Johnson w ill ask special Congressional legislation in his case, and Representative Platt also stated that he would ask tne lemoval ol Alexander’s disabilities by the House, and that he be allowed to enter the academy without taking the iron clad oath.” The noble conduct ot the stripling ought to make the cheeks ol many ot his seniors, every where in the South, burn with shame. Such a boy as tbit would have had his tongue torn out by the roots rather than endorse an iniquitous usurpation ol power as a “ verity ” or an “ ac complished fact,” Tuere is another lliiDg to be observed in this connection, viz: his rigid adhe rence to principle extorted the admiration of the Radicals. It even our enemies make obei sance to such splendid virtue, what must they think ot grown men who countenance despo tism because they are robbed of a few dollars and have lost breath and hope after only five years of struggle ?—Augusta Constitutionalist. Tbe Kl«I*CIoved Aristocracy. These are about to pass into history, says an exchange. The kid glove is about to cease from its mission as tbe emblem of aristocracy ou account of delection in prices. Very excel lent kids are sold in Paris at thirty cents a pair, and in New York they are marked as low as fifty cents. The market is absolutely over stocked, anil even the present prices cannot, it is believed, long be maintained in the trade. A Duel. A duel was fought, says a Memphis dispatch dated the 28th instant, that afternoon on the Arkansas shore four miles below that city, be tween Geo. R. Phelan and James Brizzalara, two young lawyers of Memphis, with Colt’s navy repeaters, at fifteen paces, resulting in Brizz&lar&’s being shot in the left breast aud arm, perhaps fatally, on the second round.

The telegraph yesterday morning announces the nomination of ex-Judge John D. Pope as the U. S. Qjstiict Attorney ! Judge Pope, so far as the public are informed, has never been a Republican, although he gave his support to the . relief leatures oi the new State Constitution. When the State Govern ment was set up in 1868, it was pretty well un derstood that the Senate would not be likely to confirm a radical, and Pope was appointed by Governor Bullock. It is said he gave satisfaction to the democra cy by his course on the bench. He resigned, however, on the 3d January last, and the vacan cy has not yet been filled. Under appointees like Judge Pope our peo ple need have no tears oi an undue pressing for the enforcement of the radical measures enact ed by Congress to humiliate us, such as the act to entorce the XLVth and XVth Amendments. We regret that allot Grant’s appointees are not equally conservative. - ■ Akerinan's Appointment. The views which we expressed upon the re ception of the telegraphic item from Washing ton, announcing the appointment of Mr. Aker- man as Attorney General, by President Grant, seem to be entertained now in many directions and by mauy influential presses of both political parties. The Nashville Onion & American of the 1st instant, says: “ Recent intelligence from Washington giyes more significance to the ap pointment of the unknown Mr. Aberman to a position in the cabinet than was at first sur mised. As Mr. Akerman was an ex-Confeder- ate, and had never given anything to the Presi dent, the political quid nuncs at the capitol were at a loss to assign a reason lor this strange freak of Executive power. It is now suggested that General Grant, under the advice of some ol the shrewdest oi the Republican leaders at the North, in connection with some of the wariest politicians in the South, has determined to attempt to re-organize the Republican party iu such a manner as to draw into it a large por tion of the intelligent and influential native population iu the South.” Georgia, we believe, notwithstanding the large majority she gave against Giant at the last Presidential election, is not given up as lost to the Republican patty. The appointment of Akerman, we have uo doubt, was intended to strengthen the Republican party in it, and thai etiorts of a most vigorous character to bring' about that result will be made, we have not a doubt.

It also authorizes the Secretary ol the Treasury to receive gold on deposit in sums not less than $10d**for which certificates are to be issued bearing 3 per cent. These deposits may be withdrawn at any time on 30 days notice. Sev enty-five per cent, of these deposits are to be used in redeeming bonds.

The bills for the funeral of Secretaries Stan ton aud Rawlins having been paid by the dis bursing officers of the department, under the orders ol tbe Secretary, have been rejected by tbe Second Comptroller, for the want ot an appropriation. Application is, therefore, to be made to Congress, to provide lor their payment. Some of the charges are enormous—even for W ashingtou. The carriages tor mourners are charged at three hundred dollars each, while the number ot white gloves charged is very large. The bill for the burial ol Secretary Raw lins ts about four thousand dollars; that of Mr. Stanton twelve hundred. The Amuesty Bill.

I Tiie Democratic Manifesto Criticised by tbe New York Herald. “ Now,” says the Herald, ir. its characteristic vein of criticism, “ this begins to look like Democratic progress. “ No time to be lost in the discussion of dead issues ” means that it is useless to fight any longer for the restoration of “ the Constitution as it was,” under which “ the blasted nigger” had “ no rights which a white man was bound to respect.” Next, in this Congressional pronunciamentn, the order to the Democracy to abandon all “ proscriptive feel ing ” means that “ the blasted nigger ” is to be cultivated and conciliated, which is a good idea. In fact, from their careful plan of operations embodied in this manifesto, it is clear that the Democrats intend to make an earnest fight in every Congressional district for the next House of Representatives, and that their present leaders in Congress are at last con vinced that the dead issues of old time-honored Democratic clap-trap anl the proscription o the nigger are •• piai ed out.’ 1 \\ a say this looks like progress, and we have no doubt that the Democrats will make good headway by follow ing this good advice 1; >- ren at bable fact, how- *er, that t> e • - 1 -vmocrats • iio-ti t-g to sa> .'j '!..•= -at...,- queg- i . n - - rou which tbie.ifc-i - u to over- ~ti .-.v ah > iiiii p Jiti J qoesU"tJo of the day.

Thiers thought the state ol Europe was me nacing, and that France should be prepared. Farire quoted in reply, from the Yellow Book, official assurance ol peace and tranquillity, and wanted to know why such military establish ment was kept up unless hidden plans and schemes in favor of dynasty were entertained. He answered the charge made against the Government and its policy. He had no fear for the future, for France had gained her sadavia ia the Plebiscitum. Much dissatisfaction was here expressed by the deputies, and the Minister was obliged to explain that he had no intention ot exulting over the subjects ot the empire. These words increased the agitation in the chamber. M Ollivier continued: “ The Government felt no uneasiness, otherwise it would not have re duced the contingent of ten thousand men.” Washington, July 2.—Revenue $1,167,018. HOUSE.

A coroner’s inquest to-day develops the fact that Mrs. Waters, the notorious baby larmer, has been guilty ot poisoning aud starving sev eral infants left in her charge. Havana, July 2 —A meeting of planters and wealthy slave ownets was held at the Governor- General’s palace last night. The parties were unanimous in their approval ot the abolition of slavery by the Cortes and of the mother coun try, and in their disposition to obey the laws, but request that they may be consulted as to the manner ot carrying out the law so as to prevent the negroes from becoming vagrants, and also to organize a system by which agricul tural interests will be maintained. The slaves will remain with their present masters, but will be placed under the contract and will receive the same ior their services as is paid to other freed men. There are about the usual number of cholera cases daily. Seven deaths occurred yesterday. There is no perceptible increase in the deaths from vomit. Small pox quite prevalent. STATE ITEMS, Under the heading,- “ Tiresome People,” the Macon Telegraph & Messenger says : The principal State functionaries in Atlanta have been hard at work tor a year or more to convict one another of an excess ot venality, corruption aud wickedness; and the people bel.tve every woid ot tbe testimony; but it is getting long and tiresome. Treasurer Angier is out in four columns in the Constitution, showing up Gov. Bullock, in this document Angier shows how an officer became entitled to more than his s lary and can innocently grease his tiugeis a l.ute as follows: We omit the extract. Jail Delivery.—We had a eerteral jail de livery ou last Monday night. All ol the pris oners escaped except oue who is indicted lor murder. Thev were assisted by persons from the outside.—LaOrange Reporter. TnE Wheat Crop.—The wheat crop in this country has turned out better than was antici Dated. Mr. Geo. S. Bailey, living eight miles from LaGrange, guessed that his crop would turn out from 80 to 100 bushels, and could hardly believe his own eyes when he saw Messrs McGee & Jones, proprietors of a Russell Thresh, measure up 226 bushels. Rev. D. W. Howell made 664 bushels per acre. No fertili zer used but cotton seed.—LaGrange Reporter. The True Georgian.—We have accidental ly seen a copy of the new Radical paper just started in Atlanta by Ex-Governor Bard, of Idaho. It almost is a fac simile ot the Era, under his control, in appearance, but lacks much ot the taste and vigor imparted to the Era by Wat son. The True Georgian will perform tie some what novel and difficult role ot supporting Grant and opposing Bullock. It has no tele graphic news, and is, so far, a very feeble oppo nent of the slashing, vigorous, and wicked Era,.—Athens Banner. Bard's Position.—The editor ot this journal is a true Grant Republican. The columns of the paper are strictly dedicated, however, to the welfare of Georgia. In a word, we shall do our utmost fo c mibine the good elements of all parties against the violent factions of the State, by whatever political name they may be known. The effort being put forth by the Bullock fac tion to prove us a Democratic sympathizer, is designed to destroy whatever influence we may have at the “Federal Capital,” iu behalf of this commonwealth Our record as a moderate Re publican is loo well known in Georgia to need explanation.— True (?) Georgian. How inconsistent this man is. He says he is a true Grant Republican, and almost in the same breath declares his paper is dedicated to the welfare oi Georgia. In other words, he sus tains Grant and his administration, whilst he wotks for the true interest of Georgia. This declaration of allegiance to the man who has, during his administration, insulted and wronged our people, is totally adverse to a dedication of his paper to the welfare of our State. Water aud oil won’t mix. R ght and wrong will ever remain seperate. To ba a true Grant Republi can then, is not a dedication to the welfare ot thi3 Commonwealth. May the people see through the flimsey veil.—North Georgia Citi zen. An Infant Found in a Fish’s Belly.—At Ringgold we were told the following story : Mr. Helan, proprietor of the hotel at that place, bought a large catfish caught near Chattanooga in the Tennessee river. On opening the fish an infant was found. We did not learn whether it was white or black. We can easily accoum ior the infant being in the fish’s belly; but who put it in the river we leave for the invesligation of the people of Chattanooga. One thing is cer tain, some fiend in humaa shape has committed infanticide.—North Georgia Citizen. Religious Revival.—This glorious work, which was commenced over three weeks ago, at the Methodist Church, still continues with una bated imprest, and souls are being converted to God. Night after night mourners are at the altar of prayer, imploring that the great stone of sin may be removed from the door of their every heart, that Jesus may come in aud fill their hearts with peace and joy, where there now reigns strife and mourning. The holy influence of this revival is widening throughout the community.—Marietta Journal. Important Revenue Decision.—The Com missioner of Internal Revenue, in response to a letter lrom the Deputy Sheriff ot Gwinnett county, states that there is no penalty against State courts for giving judgments in favor ol unstamped instruments, hut such cases can be appealed to the United States Courts. He also calls upon officers to report persons who issue unstamped instruments, intending to evade the levenue laws. The penalty in such cases is fifty dollars on conviction.—Savannah Repub lican. * r We understand that in Sarn’er, Lee. Dougheit) and Mitchell, cotton is diseased trom excessive rains, and a good deal of it is perish ing—Macon Telegraph and Messenger. So fat as riumter and Lee counties are con cerned, our Macon cotempo-ary has bre i mis- j iiit-uuicd We Lave conversed with nn-nerous i tanners iiom both counties, and they all speak . in the highest terms of the prospects of both 1 cotton and corn. From present appearances, we will have the heaviest crop of many years. There are some grumblers, of course, whom it is not in the power of Providence to please. —Funiter Republican. The Rome Courier, referring to the “ True Q&jryvin" says: “We are glad to see her paper started—ju9t as we would be glad to see any other eccentric old woman, who bad been teased by a big boy, turn on him and berate and scoid him. But anything more serious than this, we do not ex pect to see.” Cotton Blooms.—Mr. T. N. Loyd informs us that he had quite a number of cotton blooms in bis field last Saturday. The 4th of Jaly is usu ally considered early for cotton blooms in this section.—Rome Courier. Cessation of Hostilities.—-The following card is published in the Knoxville p*pe» • A Card—The undersigned, as mutual tnends of General Joseph A. Mabry and Uolonel Bax ter, take great pleasure in informing the P°bh that the parties, through oar intervention and the aid ot their mutual friends, have agreed to abstain from all acts of personal vtofrnce aeainst each other, and to leave matters ot A 1 ?® between them to public opinion and the final determination of the courts of law. Thsir acquiescence in this _ arrangement bas been given in a manner which, we believe, is alike honorable to both parties. Thomas W. Humes, - Thos. A. R. Nelson, Knoxville, 27th June, 1870. Wb clip the following particulars of a horri ble death on the railroad, from the Knoxville Chronicle, oi the 28th inst: As the Sunday morning train irom Chattanooga waa rounding a curve three miles West of Riceville, the engi neer discovered a man lying on the track, t he train was stopped as soon as possible, but not until half the cars had passed over the body.— Upon examination it was found to be the body of a colored laborer, and had evidently been dead some hours. It is supposed that the man was killed by the night freight tram. The body was so frightfully mangled that it could not be recognized by the ti ain hands. The wheels had cut and crushed the head so that only the cbm and a portion ot the lower jaw remained, xhe wheels had also passed over the abdomen, near ly severing the body. The clothing was nearly all torn off, and altogether, it was a horrid and harrowing sight. The body was lying between and parallel with the rail, and so terribly crush ed that the pilot and trucks of the passenger train did not touch it. After many years ot progress the Mobile & Girard Railroad has been completed to Troy, Alabama—a distance ol S3 miles. The occa sion was taken advantage of by Columbus to give an ovation to the municipal authorities and citizens oi Troy, Union Springs, and other places, and dwellers along the line of the road. The road gave a free passage to all invited guests.—Columbus Sun. Death of Mrs. Marshall.—We find in the Mobile Register ol Tuesday morning the accompanying announcement, which will be received with sincere regret by many in this community: Died, yesterday, 27th inst., at four o’clock, P. M., Caroline A. Howard, wile of B. F. Mar shall, and daughter of the late Major Jno. H. Howard, of Columbus, Ga.—Columbus Sun. An Extra Fine Cotton Stalk.—We re ceived yesterday morning a cotton stalk, grown on Mr. W. H. Goodrich’s place, six miles irom the city, forty inches in height, bearing two full blooms and squares too mauy to enumerate.— This sample is trom a field of three acres, cul tivated by Mr. John H. Smith, without fertili zers, and is the best specimen ot the plant yet exhibited at our office.—Augusta Constitution alist. The cotton crop in mis and the adjoining counties is reported to be seriously injured by the continued wet weather. The prospect of a fine crop entertained three or four weeks since, no longer exists. We understand that the cot ton worm has made its appearance in several fields. This being the case the immense yield hoped lor will have passed away. The Mont gomery Advertiser ot the 28iff’ says: “ Col. J. M. Sutherlin, of Greenville, brought from Greenville yesterday morning, leeves of cotton covered with the destroying Catterpillar. As they have made their appearance this early in the season, much uneasiness is naturally lelt.— It is feared that they will destroy much ot the crop. The cotton shown was Iroin the planta tion of Mr. Goldsmith."—Rome Daily. The Madrid Government in trying to find a youth born in the purple to take the Spanish throne has tossed one alte.r another ot the royal youngsters into the arena ot discussion, and the terriers of the press have made a lively bout’s work of it. The unfortunate princes were proved to be infirm, idiotic, immoral, ot doubt ful legitimacy, of unsound principles—their ancestors tainted by history and their descend ants by conjecture. One by one they were, to use the gentle Spanish phrase, hint diced. Freaks of the Lightning.—During the prevalence ol the several lightning and thunder storms on Monday evening, there was quite a stir and commotion among the hands in the ina chine shops ot the Nariiville &■ Chattanooga Railroad. The lightning flashed luridly and vividly, anrl the almost incessant thunder peals made the extensive buildings quiver to their lonndation8. The lightning was evidently striking in close proximity. One bolt, more blinding than the others, seemed to upheave the entire premises. Three ot the workmen were stunned, one of them being thrown down and severely shocked. The sledge hammer of anoth er was unclenched Irom his grasp and thrown some distance. No damage was sustained, how ever, and the men soon recovered from the shock they had received.—Xasdivttle Union & American. A story has been told of a graceless scamp who gained access to the Clarendon printing office, in Oxford, when the forms ot a new edi tion of the Episcopal Prayer Book had just been made up and were ready lor the press. In that part ol the “ form ” containing the mar riage service he substituted the letter for the letter v in the word live; and thus tne vow “ to love, honor, comfort, &c., so long as ye both shall live,” was made to read “ eo loDg as ye both shall like ! ” The change was not discov ered until the whole of the edition was printed ofi. if the sheets thus rendered useless in Eng land be still preserved it would be a good spec ulation to have them ne-itly bound and forward ed to Indiana and Connecticut. A Good One.—Old Judge Barbour, of Vir ginia, alter enjoying the highest honors and re tiring to private lile, waa prevailed on to be a candidate lor a local office. The opposition trotted out an illiterate, rough-and-tumble poli tician named Bill Maples, against tbe old plan. In accordance with the strict rules ot conduct ing a political campaign in those days, Gover nor Barbour had to take the stump with Maples. But Maples could always beat him in abusive haiangues. The final speech ot the campaign made by Maples was abusive beyond all prece dent. The toliowing is Barbour’s reply, which we think is the most complete thing in its way tliat we ever read. Said the Governor: ‘Fellow Citizens : When I was a young man, now ntaily forty years ago, your grandfathers sent me as their respesentative lor four terms to tiie House of Delegates, and I wa9 chosen Speaker of that body. At a subsequent period I was twice elected Governor of Virginia. Alter wards and ior ten years I represented this renowned commonwealth in the Senate of the United States, where I was the confidaute and peihaps 1 may say the peer of Macon, King, Gaillard, Pinckney, Van Buren. Mr. John Quincy Adams subsequently conferred upon me a place in his cabinet, aud for three years I shared his Counsels in conjunction wi'tr Clay, Wirt and McLean. I was then appointed ». voy extraordinary and minister plenipotentiary to the court ot St. James, where it became'my duty to conduct negotiations with theconquerer ol Napoleon. Judge then, fellow-citizens, of tbe ineffable disgust I feel, after such a career, and in my declining years, at fiudiDg myself here to-day engaged in a low, pitiful county contest with snch a disagreeable little cuss as Bill Maples.” Gen. Butler says “be has seen a fleet of wooden ships in the channel of a river running tour miles an hour, only three-quarters of a mile wide between forts, with 168 guns bearing upon them, and no one of these ships wa3 substan tially hurL” This means that Com.
