THE DAILY CONSTITUTIONALIST. STOCKTON & CO. AIJGKJSTA, Ga' WEDNESDAY CORNING, MARCH 21; 1806. INTERESTING READING HATTER ON 4TH PAGE. STILL ANOTHEB “STATES EIGHTS" MAN. is refreshing to bring home to such blatant patriots as Senators Sumner, Wade and Wil son—to 'General Dix and Mr. George Ban croft the doctrines and utterances of auld lang syne. A man that forces a nauseous draught upou his fellow may, expect, as sure as there is a Nem«s things, to have the chalice of bitterness commended to his own inspection. Thogrtat marvel of tho present epoch is the theijity, the edttg froid with which whole masses and their representatives swallow at a gulp every protestation of the Past and every princi ple It treasured. It is excusable, though de plorable, that such an alternative should be ob ligatory upon some under pressure. But where there is nothing but victory and no pres sure, how shall we typify such men as those above enumerated whose course falsi ties every idea they formerly entertained and gloried in. Is it hypocrisy—depravity— lust of gain—tiery ambition—madness ? We do not pretend to specify ; we make no charge ; we present facts and leave the inference to honest thinkers. These gentlemen are among the foremost in proclaiming the indestructibility of principle. If this f»e axiomatic, bow can five years so sap and mine the principle they once upheld ? Os course, we do not pretend to as sert that their ancient sentiments were wrong, but who shall decide if their existing creed, so Antagonistic to the former article of faith, is right y Not in anger but in sorrow arc the con tradictory records of certain prominent mem bers of the Radical party disinterred; wo feel that their inconsistency is a balk to civilization, a harrier to Republican progress, a blemish upon the honored American name. What we have hitherto quoted agains.t these gentlemen has been in prose ; let us have a taste of rhyme, aud pretty good rhyme at that. New England men have had the benefit of ven . t ilation ; let the subjoined verses speak for a Southern man of considerable notoriety in North Carolina and elsewhere. We find them in the Richmond Times , which asserts that they were written and published tome years ago by that loyal individual, whose name is attached to his effusion. Hear him : John 0. Oalhoun.

DISLOYAL BEEF. A city papev contains an official advertise ment inviting certain proposals for beof, but declaring that 4 ** « “No bids will be entertained from persons who come under the exceptions of the Presi dent’s amnesty proclamation, nor will bids in which such persons aro interested, either direct ly or indirectly, be received, unless they can produce the pardon of the President. Bids from all other persons under said proclamation, must bo accompanied by the amnesty oath.” Now, when the Federal Government offers at public sale its decayed or useless property it has not, we believe, been considered indispen sable that the buyer should do more than make the bid most advantageous to that Government ami have the wherewithal to pay for his pur chase, and when positions aro reversed and that Government, in turn, becomes the buyer we are at a loss to perceive any good reason why it Hhould impose strange and abnormal conditions on the eitizen vendor. If I want a Government mule I bid for him, and, if I bid more than any body else, Government bands me over long-ears and I plank down the cash. The transaction is a plain business matter all around—so much mule for so much money. I get all I can for my money and the Government all it can for its mule; and, like two sensible men on a trade neither party bothers the othej about the oath of allegiance, condonation of treason, or any other such foreign topic whatsoever. But, when it comes to buying, it seems that these plain business rules are not to prevail.— Away off, in the Department of the Gulf—alas, flint Republican America should be mapped out. into these satrapies—it is likewise provided that certification of “loyalty” mustaccompauy bids, and this correspondence of requirement leads us to suppose it is to be henceforth an in tegral requisite to proposals, h Lookingat it in this way, it is proposed slight ly to touch upon it—a general rule being en titled to a notice no single ease of the sort should receive. The Federal Government, let us suppose, needs beef, and you have it. It wants to buy, and you want to sell. But, unfortunately, your pardon hangs fire. This new dispensa ■ tion shuts you out. You have to secede from the market, and the resnlt of your secession is, to thnt extent, to diminish competition, and put it in the power of remaining bidders to run up the price. They do run up the price. The Government must buy, mid it does buy, and buys at this advanced rate, comfort ing its honest heart, doubtless, with the sweet reflection—my Beef may be dear, but it isn’t Disloyal. A PLEA FOE THE BIRDS. No true sportsman will wage war against, game birds from this time forward until late in the autumn. At this season, the birds, which have previously congregated in flocks or covies, separate into pairs for the purpose of reproduc tion, and should be safe from powder, shot and snares. We would advise nil buoyant boys and children of larger growth, intent on frolic or gain, to put their gnns away for several months, and devote the spring and summer days to the appropriate recreation of angling. Let the winged creatures suitable for table use have a respite; but, if convenient, assort your bobs, hooks aud lines in readiness for trout, bream, perch and other fish, with which our contiguous rivers or ponds ahound. Down by shady wil lows, green nooks, or clear expanse of waters, tun enough can be procured for fti\ evening holi day, without disturbing doves and partridges in their pleasant loves and domestic felicities. Moderation should be observed in the use of ammunition as in everything else. If carried to an irrational extreme, it will not tako long to exterminate the feathered tribes which now pre vail, and which add so greatly to the delight ot the hunter and the gastronome. Some unthink ing persons imagine that it is impossible to ex terminate the game birds of the South. Such would indeed be the ease, if all men were satis fied with a sober degree of shooting; but in . sport, as in many individuals exist who never get the tvortli of their money or their percussion caps. These insatiable monsters arc arrant pests and should not be encouraged. To show tbit it is possible to annihilate, or nearly so, the game birds of certain sections, in spite of their vast numbers, we need only refer to indubitable statistics on the subject. Let us take, for example, the grouse which formerly existed in countless myriads through out the West. In several of the States, say Ohio, Indiana and Illinois, these birds have di minished so sensibly that an earnest protest against their massacre has been put forward by the Government itself. One man in New York has been known to receive at a single consign ment no less -others received, during the year, may be com puted at hundreds of thousands. This is true of all other game birds and, if the entire figure could be summed up, it would stagger the most Incredulous. At this rate, it will not be too rash to assert that the present century will witness the total extermination of game birds in various sections of ths country. Is it not time that this wholesale butchery should btj checked ? State laws 6cem totally inadequate to remedy the evil, and, in their de fault, we advise our planters to prohibit pro miscuous and untimely hunting on their do mains. Ali, or nearly all, of them arc fond ol this and it is a matter of some moment to them that the exterminating gentry should have a stoppage put upon theft disastrous work. Many reckless gunners seem*to pursue game as though posterity had no claim upon them. It is all very well to “ damn posterity,” but posterity has inalienable rights as well as they. There is a higher argument than all this which should weigh with every earnest man, and that is, the usefulness of birds. They have not been created vainly, and although some are troublesome to the crops, we are firmly per suaded that they are more beneficial than other wise in destroying grasshoppers and hurtful grubs. The little grain that may be consumed by them is but a meagre bribe for the unnum bered insects which they suppress. It is esti mated by those who have studied the matter seriously, that if our game birds should be ma terially lessened, the crops would suffer in a material proportion. When killed in a legitimate manner, viz: by shooting, and at proper intervals, no great damage is done; but by using snares and slaughtering them when pairing, incalculable detriment is sustained. Many of our birds are the companions of civilization. The partridge and dove are most frequently discovered where man has built his dwelling or plowed the fields. Civilization, then, tends rather to foster the increase of these beautiful, useful and palatable creatures; is it not a barbarism to seek their utter or com parative destruction ? We are persuaded that much, that is warlike and independent in our character has been pro duced by the universal love of field sports in the South. Habitual use of the gun preserved us from effeminacy and knit our sinews in healthy symmetry. A writer upon this theme has nobly said “that such influences purify the heart of every one whose fortune it may have been to listen to the hound on the echoing hill-side, or to thread the thorny brake in quest of the whirring Tame. To many, ail this may seem but the ‘little tilings of little men,’ but history teaches us that the knowledge acquired In the chase of wielding a deadly weapon, and the possession of frames hardened by pleasant toil of many a hunting expedition, have been the means of enabling a people to preserve the freedom of their country when the time of trial came.” Let this glorious prerogative lie still retained by preserving the birds. We could easily for tify this matter by reference to French and English experience, but what has been said may answer the purpose. We have written in the love of nature and its darlings of the wood and forest—likewise with a healthy appreciation of honorable sport. We feel that old hunters will thank us for this admonition. Let them coun sel all under their control to sound a truce to gun and shot pouch, for a vacation, and lavish their spare energies and cash, if so disposed, upon diversions sacred to the memory of Izaak Walton.

Washington, March 16th, 1866. * Some persons think the comparative calm of the present is a good omen, and they lienee hope indefinitely and generally that something good is going to turn up, and they imagine that this calm gives assurance that some kind of harmo ny may be possible between the President nnd the Congress. But this calm is delusive. It is the stillness which precedes the storm. The fact is, an accommodation between the Presi lent and the, “Central Directory” is impossible, un less the President would consent to practically abdicate his high functions. This Radical party cannot compromise. It is obliged to go on to the onil. The Idea which underUcAthli, party la negro equality. The negro must be raised up to the level of the wlute man. Unless this is done nothing is done. Besides this, it is a fixed idea with the Radicals not to permit those who were prominent in the secession movement to hold political power. There never was a party more in earnest than this Radical party. The President is very hopeful, and lias great confi dence in the people. But it is not certain that the President fully comprehends the depth of the fanatical sentiment North, and it is very questionable if the people are as wise us the President’s political philosophy represents them. I heard a man of great sagacity giving his opinion lately as to whether the President or the Radicals would be sustained by the peo ple. lie said, in reply, that he had an infallible way of foreseeing what the people would do on any given question, that lie always made up bis mind what it was wise for the people to do, and always toolkit, for granted they would do exactly the opposite. Now in this particular matter he said, “it is wise for the people to sustain the President, as it is the only way to restore peace to the country ; but as this is what they ought to do, I am sure they will do the reverse, (hey will sustain the madmen in Congress.” Prices of goods continue to full in the New York market. It is an immense relief to find things getting cheaper. It seems like we are entering on a new era, financially. It would seem, however, that no considerable reduction could lie permanent, unless the currency were restored to a much nearer approximation to the • specie standard. ■ It is stated that, in the recent correspondence between our Minister at the Court of St. Janies and Lord John Russell, the tone of Lord Rus sell’s dispatches aro not very conciliatory. And, to add fuel to the.flame, some member of Con gress offered a resolution yesterday, instructing the Secretary of the Navy to send a fleet to the Canadian waters to protect our fishermen, who have no business there. The Fenians have managed to get up a big scare in Canada. The authorities there seem to think that the Fenians are really about to do something; but the general impression is that the whole affair will blow over, without any thing very serious. If the Fenians arc in the midst of a revolution, it is certainly bloodless, and not unlikely to.continue so. It is said that the decision of the Supreme Court in the Garland case, involving the right of lawyers engaged in the so-called rebellion to practice in the Ignited States courts, depends on the opinion of Judge Nelson, who onlv .heard a tragment of the first argument, and who there® re reserved bis judgment. On the subject of finance, on the assemblage of Congress a resolution was passed to the ef fect of pledging Congress to carry out, the poli cy of the Secretary of the Treasury. This policy looked to a gradual return to a currency of specie value. Since then different ideas have taken possession of some of the leading Radi cals. They are unwilling to travel on the.line ot (he Secretary’s policy. They fear stringent times in’lhe country. They apprehend that the condition of the country may bo useiVns an ar gument against them. Hence, to keep monied affairs in as easy a condition as possible, they will not permit any considerable reduction of the volume of paper money now afloat. I think, therefore, there is not likely to be that withdrawal from circulation of paper money hitherto expected. The Civil Rights Bill having passed both Houses now awaits the President’s signature. Opinions differ as to whether he will sign this bill or not. Some say lie intends to veto every important bill affecting the seceded States, be cause their representatives are wrongfully ex cluded from their scats; and therefore he will veto this bill. Othdfs say he will sign this bill because lie lias substantially favored this policy for the treed men. It has been seen here, with great interest by the friends of the South, that Hon. Herschcl V. Johnson is invited to address your Legislature. Ihe kite address ol Mr. Stephens, so admirable in its tone, produced a decided impression for good here and over the North. There never was a time when the South needed more the out-spoken utterances of her wisest men. I ■ | Letter from the Hon. Wm. C. Rives The venerable Wm. C. Rives, of Virginia, en dorses the policy of the President strong terms. We extract from a letter to the Hon. James Lyons, of Richmond : “ You were pleased in your letter to express a desire to know my opinion of the late Presi dential veto. I agree with you entirely in your estimate of it. It has been a God-send for ns, for if that horrible hydra-headed monster, which he so gallantly encountered and slew, had been suffered to live, I do not see how the South would have been longer habitable for our own race. Indeed, my dear sir, the whole course of tho President, since his admirable message at the opening of Congress, appears to me to have been in the spirit of the loftiest pa triotism and statesmanship, and worthy of the best days of the Republic. If he goes on as he has commenced, he will merit the glorious title of the ‘Restorer of the Constitution,’ than which I can conceive of no higher crown of glory lb the sad condition in which our country has fallen. It is a special mercy of Providence to have sent us such a man in such a time of need." Our New York Correspondence. The Fenian Movement—lnvasion of Canada The Fight Between the O'Mahoney's and the O'Roberts'—Sweeney the Life and Soul of the Fenians—Basil Duke Holds High Rank in the Fenian Army—The Attack on Canada-Gen eral Banks on Yankee Doodle—He Makes a Speech ala Spread Eagle—He Longs a Song of Triumph —“ Stonewall Jackson in the Val ley"—The Mortuary Literature of the Her ald—How the Money is Made—Commercial and Financial. The Fenian movement assumes practical shape with extraordinary rapidity. While O’Mahoney and Roberts have been quarreling, General Bweeney has given direction to the ardor of his countrymen, and seems to be the head of the Fenian movement. His friends have adroitly infused the idea into the minds of the Irish that he is the true leader who strikes the first blow, and measures are reported and believed to be actively prosecuted for a demon stration against Canada before the month of March expires. It is not easy to sift the facts from what is put in circulation for effect, but I am assured that General Sweeney has purchased 20,000 muskets, and has 32 companies thorughly or ganized in this city. He is reported to declare that he wants only to get into Canada with an organized force. Supplies for the future will take care of themselves. Among the Fenian officers under General "Sweeney, BasU Duke is reported to hold high rank. The O’Mahoney faction is reported to be op posed to the invasion of Canada, and to declare that such a course will jeopardize success in Ireland. It is even said that a large meeting is to be held in Burlington, Vt., to protest against it. This, lam sure, is a mere pretext, to cover the gathering of the invading hordes. If not, why is the meeting held at so unimportant a place as Burlington ? I have it from the best authority, that border farmers on tine United States side of the line are disposed to aid the Fenians all in their pow er. They have old grudges arising out of the conduct of the Canadians during the late war to satisfy. It is a fact, I believe, that while Federals and Confederates, when thrown to gether, could treat each other with comparative civility, the Canadians insulted the Federals on every opportunity. Their course and present dilemma is another illustration of the old adage about offered services. There is a run upon the savings banks of Montreal. I have heard it hinted here that Canadian banking institutions are expected to keep Gen. Sweeney’s treasury replenished. An intelligent and thoughtful Irishman, in detail ing to me some of the Fenian plans and pros pects, said that his only fear was that unoffend ing inhabitants would be subjected to grievous aud unmiiitary outrage, both in Canada and in Ireland; that a formidable demonstration will be made in both countries, he has not the slightest doubt. And certainly all indications favor tlie accuracy of his predictions.’ GENERAL BANKS ON YANKEE DOODLE. General Banks, now Chairman of the Com mittee on Foreign Affairs in the House of Representatives, has made a spread eagle speech in praise of Yankee Doodle, which is a painful exhibition of an enfeebled intellect that was never strong. Gen. Banks was one of our great men, when the successful manipulation of buck stair and behind-tlie-door party polities was the test of greatness. He fell before greater issues, and the suddenness and completeness of his fall lias somewhat bewildered him. He makes no attempt to climb the heights around him, but embraces the occasion offered by a propo sition with reference to the Paris exposition, to sing a song of triumph to Yankee Doodle, which is offensive to good taste, and greatly in consistent with his political position with re spect to foreign nations. He received much applause, some of which seems very ironical. He proposed to exhibit our military chieftains. I may- ask to add one or two suggestions.— What would Europe think to see the muster rolls of the armies that for one year withstood the assault, in one perpetual battle, of a million men and the heaviest fleet that ever floated? Perhaps some of the Red river cotton which he went after and did not get would be an object of interese to the moralists of Europe ? MORTUARY LITERATURE. The death notices in the New York Herald constitute one of the “features” of that peculiar * ami notorious shuot. Tho bits of worn out rhyme which are constantly reproduced, have suggested a computatioh of how much revenue each brings in to the establishment in the course of a year. Thus: “Sister, thou wait mild and lovely,” and so on to the extent of four lines, is printed very often—sometimes it is reproduced two or three times in the same column—price forty eonts per line—?l 60 each insertion—or about $5 per annum. Next in order wo have “Fare the well, sweet bud of beauty," Ac. This produces a large revenue. I gave at some length, recently, an account of the extraordinary passion among people from the British Isles, English and Irish especially, for notoriety. They love to get their names into print. They will impoverish themselves to that mid. A death in the family is generally turned to much account by these people. The Herald is their favorite organ, and I have no doubt the “death column” in that paper yields twenty-five thousand dollars per annum. I subjoin a specimen of these notices : On Mond*, March 12, Charlotte Amanda, daughter of August and Sarah , aged 5 years, 11 months and 9 days. , Fare thee well sweet, bud of beauty Little angel, faro thee well For thou were .too pure and lovely In a world like this to dwell.

M.; also the members of the Seamen’s Boarding House Keepers’ Benevolent Association, and the friends of the family are respectfully invited to attend the funeral, this (Tuesday) afternoon, at two o’clock, from the residence of her parents, No. 67 street. The remains will be interred in Greenwood Cemetery. Here are sixteen lines, published twice, forty cents per line, each insertion, sl2 80. Perhaps many will think we arc unfeeling; but I defy any one to repress a smile who knows life and death in New York city. BUSINESS MATTERS. The decline in gold has produced a great jangle among the Wall street' speculators, and they are very spiteful against the Secretary of the Treasury. It was given out one day (I dare say without authority) that the Treasury De partment would support gold at 137, when it “slumped” to 130. The “.lame ducks” arc flopping about, and demand that the Secretary shall show his hand. The proposition of Senator Sherman, to pre vent a reduction of the non-interest bearing le gal tenders below *420,000,000, meets with gen- , eral approval. Its passage is quite probable; and it is regarded as likely to “ steady matters.” In my T judgment, however, the moment it is put in practical operation, gold will drop below 120, unless political complications should arise to awaken distrust. Cotton is the only great staple that shows de cided strength. Pork closes firmer, owing to an increased English demand. John Bull will want some of onr pork to feed his nrmies ope rating against the Fenians. • Willoughby. The Penalty.— William Wright, a citizen of New Orleans, Louisiana, has beeii tried before a military commission, at that place, on the charges of seditious and treasonable language, (the specification states that he sang the “ Boii nie Blue Flag,” and halloed “ Hurrah for Jeff. Davis nnd the Southern Confederacy,” in the streets of New Orleans,) and attempted to cre ate a riot. The following extract gives the finding and sentence of the court; Headq’rs Eastern District of Louisiana } New Orleans, La., Feb. 28, 1866. ) General Order,) No. 11. $ ***** Finding—Of the specification, first charge, “guilty.” Os the specification of the second charge, “guilty of hallooing for the Southern Confederacy;” “not guilty” of the remainder. Os the second charge, “ not guilty.” Sentence —“ To be confined at hard labor at such place as the Commanding General may direct for the period of two years.” 11. The proceedings, finding and sentence in the forsgoing ease are approved, and the sen tence will be carried into effect at Fort Jeffer son, Florida, to which place the prisoner will be sent by the Provost Marshal of the parish of Orleans, under charge of a suitable guard.

From Memphis.—A correspondent front Now Madrid, to the Memphis Argus says that the re cent difficulty originated in the fact that an ex- Federal soldier negro, with whom he had some difficulty. The negroes met and formed a company to massacre all the white population. The citizens got word of the matter and prepared for the worst. On Sunday night the negroes commenced by firing several shots into a house, one bail nar rowly missing a young girl in the act of pray ing. The citizens, two hundred in number, upon the first signs of an outbreak, charged upon the negroes and captured three of the leaders, two of whom they shot, and hung the other. At a negro doggery, on the corner of De Soto and Beale streets, at 11-2 a. in., a negro uamed Ike Campbell was shot, and soon died. Another was shot in the same house .yesterday. South Memphis is noted as the rendezvous for low nigger whisky saloons, and houses of pros titution of the same colorr. It is decidedly de moralized.
