oonstitutionalist: attgujsta. ga. FRIDAY MORNING. SEPT. 13. 1867. 11. It is the duty of the military authorities in this District to secure to the people the ut most freedom of speech and of the press consist ent with law ; not to restrict either. No satis factory execution of the late acts of Congress i> practicable unless this freedom is secured and its exercise protected by the usual legal means. in No officer or soldier in this command mill hereafter interfere with newspapers or speakers on any pretense whatever. [Gen. Pope’s Okder, June 3d. “ Freedom of speech and of the press , educa * tion, equality before the law , and in political , rights and privileges, are the essentials of any j satisfactory reconstruction in the South." | Gen. Pope’s Letter to Gen. Grant. ANOTHER DOCUMENT. The Congressional Committee have flood ed the South with catechisms, speeches, tracts and party puffs ad nauseam. As will be seen in a sub-editorial of this paper, the members of that infamous cabal have used the money at their command not only to proselytize the negroes and mean whites by issuance of Radical trash, but have an eye to the pockets of their Southern disciples, through liberal supplications in the interest of the Washington Chronicle. The example set by the Central Commit tee at Washington has been vigorously fol lowed by little cliques and factions support ing certain Presidential aspirants. Mr. Schuyler Colfax is one of these vaulting candidates for Executive preferment. As long as General Grant was silent and popular, poor Colfax knew he had not the ghost of a chance; nay, the spectre of a leg of mutton had more hopes than he had. Since General Grant has been, to some ex tent, dropped by all parties and of only possible servie: to the Radicals who infi nitely prefer Mr. Chase, giddy Colfax sneaks out of his covert to proffer his claims and, incidentally, kick the great lion lie deems so harmless. In order to accomplish his purposes, he shows that he has learned a trick or two from the Schenck commit tee and straightway issues or causes to be issued a circular of rough hints and sprawl ing indications. This precious document runs as follows! Sixteen Reasons wbv oub Republican Party should not bun Gen. Gbant fob President in 1868. 1. He has all he deserved at the bauds of the American people. 2. He could not deliver an Inaugural Address. 3. Because no Democrat has succeeded for the past quarter of a century as President of the United. States. 4. Because at this peculiar period in the history of our great country we need an ABLE AND EXPERIENCED STATESMAN at the “ White House.” 6. Because One Hundred Thousand Graves and Four Million of Freedmen DEMAND A RE PUBLICAN PRESIDENT AND VICE PRESIDENT. (J. He is now and always has been a Democrat , and has never indorsed the Republican Party. 7. Because he lias proved a failure in every capacity outside of the military. 8. Heclaims to have no knowledge of Polities or National affairs. y. Because all the Democratic and Rebel papers indorse him. 10. He has followed our drunken Democratic \Johnson in all his Rebellious rows against Congress and our party. 11. Because he has insulted the Republican Party by indorsing the removal of ti>o ifcm tary of War and accepting thft position him self. 12. We hqve one hundred better men for Presi dent. 13. Because all parties claim him as belonging to their parts, v We Patter touted 15. Because the Democrats and Rebels have no other available candidate. 16. Becauss Illinois gave us IMMORTAL LIN COLN, and Indiana offers OUR MOST AVAILABLE CANDIDATE. AMERICAN REPUBLICANS. SUBLEASE POST THIS UP. Now, is not this a modest dish to set be fore the popular will. As a venomous at tack upon Gen. Grant it surpasses any thing of the kind that has appeared in the most rabid journals opposed to the chief military man of the North. We do not pretend to be the champion of the General, but believe him to be a thous and times preferable to little Colfax. This miserable demogogue having helped make military rule possible and supreme, affects to snub it and its instruments. He has sud denly discovered that the “ nation” wants a Statesman and not a Dragoon. We agree with the gad-fly that the country is hungry and thirsty for a Statesman; but it will make a grave mistake if it suppose the qualities that combine to make a great Constitutional ruler or Republican President reside in the insect soul of the “ available candidate from Indiana.” POT AND KETTLE. Colonel Hillyer, in his scorching letter to Thurlow Weed, says : “ I have only one more word to say. You state that I am said to be 1 implicated in frauds.’ Your age alone saves you from my branding you as a liar. After an experience of six months in office , I can proudly soy—what I should not have been able to say had 1 been controlled by you— that my hands are entirely clean." It is a glorious thing to show that Hillyer considers it an exceptional miracle that his hands have been kept clean, during «ix months of office holding in New York. But, is it not a little damaging to his sub lime nature when he candidly confesses that, had he not steered clear of Thurlow Weed, he would have been obliged to suc cumb to the thieving propensities of his clansmen ? All honor, however, to Hill yer for what he has done or what he says he has. That Thurlow Weed differs very mate rially from the conclusions arrived at by thp Colonel, and thinks he puts too flue a point upon his own spotlessucss, can be judged by a rejoinder. Referring to the gallant Colonel, Weed says : “For more than a year he beleagured ray door as persistently as any of the hundred needy men who were simultaneously pressing me to find some visible means of support for them.— His importunities became irksome; but I en sured them out of respect for Gen. Grant.” If this statement be correct, Hillyer is taking his spite out of T. W. for ancient neglect. Having, as aforesaid, a kind corner in his heart for General Grant, Weed treats of the revenue frauds, and says : “ I deemed it my duty to inform Gen. Grant that his friend Colonel Hillyer Is alleged to be implicated.” Having indulged in several sharp passes at the plucky Colonel, the indignant and dis gusted Thurlow disposes of him as fol lows: “ I need not waste time or words in replying to the personal abase of a sturdy office beggar, for more than u I year, and whoso language, if he would protect i more and consume less whisky, might be better j suited to the character of a person whose only < claim to consideration fs that of having been ‘on General Grant’s staff.’” , This is more than Pickwickian abuse and, , if reliable, proves to the public at large that, j “ It. Is not a toes up, If MoHßiip kick Barry , Or Barry kick Monsup.” Death of Wm. Gregg, Sr.—On Wednes day afternoon, the public heard with re gret that Wm. Gregg, Sr., of Graniteville, was dangerously ill; on Thursday morn ing the sad intelligence of his death created universal and profound sorrow. Wc learn that the immediate cause of his demise was inflammation of the bowels, superinduced by exposure in directing the repair of the fac tory dam. Not more than ten days ago vve saw him, with robust health and frame erect, wear ing the honors of a noble life. He appear ed, on that occasion, full of enthusiasm, full of vigor—his face radiant with vitality and his eyes luminous with intelligence. We thought how favorably he compared, in his grand though venerable proportions, with many a younger person; how strong the principle of action and progress; how bounteous the promise of comiug years that were to make his great schemes prac tical. And now, like a druid oak in the path of the lightning, he has faHeu amid his brethren and lies prone and motion less. Mr. Gregg was, at the time of his death, President of the Graniteville Manufactu ring Company and, we should judge, about sixty-five years of age. Time had dealt leniently with him, and he bore his years without flinching; for his rules of con duct were temperate and simple, and his daily walk truly patriarchal. He was a man of considerable wealth, gained by his own exertions. Emphatically a worker, he inspired others with energy and, in some respects, was the most magnetic man we have known. The village of Graniteville and the Factory were his creations and special pride. In him the manufacturing com comunity has lost its most prominent South ern representative; and the people of the village must mourn a benefactor and friend. In yielding themselves to the dis pensation of Providence that removes so valuable and enterprising a man, the fami ly and Mends of the deceased have the rare consolation of knowing that he was not only full of years, but full of honors and all good graces. The funeral services will be performed this morning, at 9 o’clock, at the Granite ville cemetery, in the midst of the people he loved so well. The Amnesty Proclamation. —The New York Tribune , referring to President Johnson’s new amnesty proclamation, re marks : We were in favor of a sweeping amnesty when Mr. Johnson was raving and roaring thrice a day that “ treason was a crime, and traitors must be punished.’’ We are in favor of it now, and would gladly have every peace ablo, well-disposed man in the Soutli assured that no harm will befall him because of his share in the rebellion so long as he deports himself as a good citizen should. Let them who were rebels feel and know that they may plant and till, build and trade, buy lands and sell them, without fear of confiscation or mo lestation. So far as President Johnson’s new proclamation teuds to secure this end, it has our hearty approval. If Greeley can afford to endorse the proclamation, the Southern Radicals ought W lie gCllt'lUlW CllUUgll tv vuvlvrt,* ClitinM ley. But, Greei-ky, like his Southern co adjutors, evidently means that this people can “ plant, till, build, trade, buy lands and sell them ” —anything but vote agaiust the Radical party- The chief end of man, soul but to saw his HHRpfiys that party be the , [ Radical party. Revolution. —Radical journals at the South are emphatic in their declarations that Congress will not submit to the Consti tutional proclamations of President John son; they strive, in the same breath, to fasten the guilt of inciting revolution upon | the Conservative papers. That’s an old j trick of malefactors. Resolved upon war, ; or pretending to be, in case of defeat in pol i itics, they vehemently and basely denounce innocent men as incendiaries and strife-pro vokers. It is a siy game, but a foolish one. If any war should grow out of present per plexities, the Southern Conservatives will have nothing to do with it; but, from the organization and drills of the Grand Army ! of the Republic, Loyal Leagues, etc., the Southern Radicals seem determined to have ; a sanguinary Anger in the pie, although that pie should be baked a thousand miles away. Thinking About It.— Prior to the Cali fornia election aud recent heavy losses in Vermont and Maine, Radical journals, North and South, were blatant for the ab solute rights of the majority and the total extinction of the privileges of the minority. They do not pipe on so high a key, since the Great Reaction has been proved some thing more substantial than a delusion. Six or eight months hence, all the Radical papers, North and South, will be clamorous for the very rights they recently attempted to destroy or deny. We hope the Conser vatives will give them a chance to be heard ; though it is of universal application that only the noble, though misguided, can ap preciate favors magnanimously bestowed. A Stevens Opinion. —C. L. Vallandig ham made a speech at. Ripley, Ohio, one day last week, in which he said he had seen a letter from Thad. Stevens to President Johnson, asking for the release of Clement C. Clay, in which Stevens said that no man could be legally aud constitutionally con victed of treason, and that, therefore, the sooner these men were let go the better. Oh! That Liver.—A Lexington (Ky.) paper says General Thomas was in that town a few days since, looking stout and rosy and weighing about two-hundred and twenty-five pounds averdupois, and that he behaved himself very much like a gentle man, and did not make any harangues to the negroes. Good for Montana.— ln rejoicing over California, many persons have neglected Montana. The Great Reaction is visible even there. The Democratic candidate for Congress has been overwhelmingly elected. The same party has twenty-seven majority in Territorial Council. “We are Coming, Father Abraham.”— The Columbus Sun is informed upon good authority that Joseph Williams, on his re cent speaking tour in Alabama, succeeded in converting some three thousand negroes from Radicalism to Conservatism. Dead. —Among the victims of the yellow fever at Fort Morgan, hear Mobile, is Lieutenant Breckinridge, son of the Rev. Robert J. Breckinridge, and consin of General Breckinridge. Growling. —The Tribune is not pleased with the manner of distributing documents pursued by the immaculate Congressional Committee. It says: “We are Informed that among the ‘ docu ments ’ sent out by the Republican Committee of Congress to enlighten the South are many gorgeously illuminated posters of Forney’s Washington Chronicle. We dare say It would do the Southerners somo good to read the Chronicle, though it may not help them much to read the posters ; hut we suggest that this is not exactly the sort of documents which we contribute our money to circulate. Col. For ney had better pay for his advertising out ol his own pocket.” [From the Mobile Tribune. Conversation with a Radical Editor. John Hardy! “ Here, sir.” Stand up in that chair, sir. “Yes, sir.” Pull off your pants, John. “ Please, sir, I’d rather not. People will laugh at my legs, sir.” They shan’t laugh at your legs, John. Off with your pants. “ Can’t do it, sir.” What! Ah, John, we shall have to try what the ruler can do. “I’ll pull ’em off, sir. There, sir.” Stand up straight, Joliu, and stop turning about in your chair. “ Please, sir, the flies keep crawling over my legs so I can’t stand still.” John Hardy! “ Sir.” Are you a rascal or an honest man ? “ I am a rascal, sir. But please don’t make me tell it.” Are you .a d—d rascal, John? “ I expect to be, when I die, sir, a very d—d rascal.” John, what ever put you iuto the notion of starting a daily paper V “To serve the interests of the country.” Mind, John, the ruler is not far off. “ I started a paper as a spigot in the mo ney chest of that pompous ass, Dick Bus teed.” What did you promise Dick Busteed in in return for his heavy expense of running a pa[>er with you as editor, John? “O, I just told him I would put him up for Vice-President.” How did Dick behave, John, when you made the proposition ? “He jumped out of his chair, halloed ‘ God save the Republic,’ and after dashing round the room two or three times, he said he had been often told he was like old man Napoleon, and he thought on that account he would make a good Vice-President.” John, have you no shame about you at all, that you can play so cruel a joke on a good friend as you ha\e practised on Dick Busteed, by putting him up for Vice-Presi dent ? “ Shame ! What is that, sir ?” We shall not stop to explain now, John. To what extent have you bled “ poor Rich ard ” up to this date ? “To the small amount of five hundred f dollars a week, sir. You know it takes money to run a paper in these hard times— particularly such a paper as mine is.” Do you expect to run your paper in that way forever ? “ Lord, no. sir. I have ordered a dozen probate judges to send their printing to me. Honest people are ordered to support such rascals as I am nowadays. That’s the reason I am so hot for reconstruc tion.” Take up your pants there, John, aud empty their pockets between your feet. There. Now tell us what keys those are we see. “ This one, sir, is the private key to a bar-room. This one again lets me into a gambling house, where I go to eat supper and wait on Dick Busleed. These others let me into houses I’d rather not speak of please, sir.” “ What is that dirty piece of paper there, John? It seems to be a letter. Read it, sir.” (Reads.) “ Office State Sentinel— Dear Judge : The campaign is getting on finely here, but the question is often asked where is Busteed now ? One blast upon his own tingle horn is worth a thousand men. Your investment in the Sentinel is the best thing you ever did. 1 have drawn on you for live thousand dollars more, juot t n t<«pp tne paper up till I can order in all the official printing in the State. “ Yours, till deatli, &c., &c.” There is another letter there, John, read jt. / “(Office Static Sentinel —Dear Figures : k Your favor has been received. We are pretty much in the same flx here. The d—d niggers are getting suspicious and close fist ed. I don’t think they’ll pay as well in fu ture as they have done heretofore. If I could just use the cow-hide on some of their black hides I would soon teach them that their money belongs to loyal white men. Pope’s order has come just in time. I have bled Dick nearly dry. I want to get a few thou sand more out of him and then give him time to recover a little. Does it never trouble you to think what a d —d rascal you are ? I’ve got so I don’t mind it, my self. In fact, I never sleep well at night ! now unless I have swindled somebody the j day before. “ Your brother rascal, &c., &., &c.” There is still another paper there, John, what is it ? “ Please, sir, I’d rather not read that.” What is it, John ? “O, its just a little trifle I wrote—some ! lines.” What! Is it possible that you are a poet, , John? Read it, sir. [Reads] i ODE TO EON. RICHARD BUSTEED. BY J. H. “ O, Richard Busteed, mighty man, The greatest Judge in all the lan’, John Hardy does whate’r he eau To make you next Vice-President. While you are quaffing spartlir.g wine, And living lilgb and dressing fine, Like worker in some dark coal mine Toils John, upon your good, intent. “ There are some men who me begrudge My friendship true big-bellied Judge, But from thy side I’ll never budge. So long as you can do me good ; While you are big and I am little, I’ll be the dog to lick your spittle. The pot to curse your neighbor’s kettle. To shed ray sweat but not my blood.” Why, John, you are quite a poet, indeed. “0,1 just struck them lines off in no time. Would you like to hear some more of my poetry, sir?” No, John, not to-day. You may get down from the chair now. “ Please, sir, may I put on my pants again ?” Yes, put them ou ; and confound you, for the time we have wasted on you! Stop mashing flies on your legs, sir, aDd go! be gone ! avaunt! You unprofitable little parasite on the body of Dick Busteed; wart of a toad in the gaseous state; microscopic mote in the glare from the Radical hell; diminutive committer of political incest; putrescent-pigmy with the brain of a canary bird and the heart of a serpent; tailless tadpole in the black vomit of radicalism; rusty legged robber of afflicted Africans ; hairy caterpillar lu the web of rascality; avaunt! begone!—till we call you again.

Harbißbubg, Septombar 6. As there is no Governor to be elected for Pennsylvania, nor no members of Congress, on the second Tuesday in October, the interest in the coming election centres upon the office of Judge of the State Supreme Court, and upon , this the canvass is now going vigorously 911. — Personally considered, tho candidates of both Republican and Democratic parties staud about even in the estimation of the general public, and, apart from the very wide margin in the political opinions of both gentlemen,- they would probably be regarded with equal favor as jurists and men of unblemished character.— The office is an important oue, inasmuch as the term is for fifteen years. The vacancy occurs by the expiration hy limitation of the term of Hon. George W. Woodward. The Democrats have selected as their candidate George M. Sharswood, of Philadelphia, and presiding Judge of the District Court in that city and county—a lawyer of unquestionable ability— I and extremely popular in Philadelphia, not only with his own party, but with the citizens i generally. Throughout the State, also, he is ; well known, and is regarded as a Democrat of the strictest constitutional kind. The Republi can nominee is Judge H. W. Williams, of Pitts, burg, an emigrant from New England, who is said to be not at all popular ontside bis own district, and carrying with him into the contest some very enrions ideas of the duties of a judge. Part of the platform upon which he was nominated is contained in one of the reso lutions adopted by the Republican convention held at Williamsport in June, which declares that it is the duty of a judge to decide on the bench according to the political opinions of the majority—that is to say, to decide with the party who elected him. This declaration, upon which Judge Williams goes before the people, lias rather shocked the memliersof the legal pro fession. They adhere to the old fashioned prin ciple that a judge should decide according to law, and not according to politics. This plank, so lioldly thrust into the Republican platform, may therefore prove a very weak one. It is only a part, however, ol the Jacobin policy of the Radicals. As an oflset to this, the Republi cans present. tbc dissenting opinion of Judge Sharswood in the District Court in February, 1864, in tbc case of Boric against Troll, where lie declared the act of Congress of February 25, 1802, making greenbacks a legal tender, uuMioii stitutional. This decision, cry out Means, touches the pocket ol every maffwo owns a five dollar lull. It is an trine, and shows that Judge Sharswood fN to tiis old nullification ideas of the CaJW’nn time. They make much capital out of ij. calculate to use it extensively against Judge Sharswood. The Democrat*, respond that the Judge’s opinion lias been '•> his opponents. That lie decided, as an ■jUjUt* / and just man should, that contracts I a gold basis could not be liquidated -/ Ouly this and nothing more. Napoleon’s Speeches. The Return from Salzburg ami Popular Re ceptions bp the Way—His Majesty Defines His Position — What France Wants and What She Defends. .By the steamship City of Baltimore we'have written mail accounts of the reception to Na poleon and Eugenie in the manufacturing dis tricts of France on their return from Salzburg, with reports of the speeches delivered hy the Emperor at Arras and l.ille, which have beeu already summarized in our cable dispatches. The report says : Napolecn, while cn route to Paris, ou bis return from Salzburg, had been making speeches in 6ome of the provincial cities whicn attract attention. In response to an ad dress from the Mayor of Arras lie said : You are righttobave confidence in the future. It is only weak governments who seek in foreign complications to divert attention from troubles at home. But he who derives liis streugtli from tlie great body of the natiou has only to do liis duty and to satisfy tho permanent lutercsts of the country; and, while holding aloft the national flag, we should not nllow our selves to be drawn away by intemperate, im pulses, however patriotic they may be. I thank you for the sentiments you have expressed towards the Empress and our son. Be assured that they share my devotion for France, and that their most ardent wish is to put an,end to all misery and alleviate all misfortunes, , • Dispatches from Lille state that their ties were received in that town with eulhfHiasm, and passed through the streets and botwVaids In an open carriage. ■jp- The lollowiiig is the text of the roplpWde by tho Emperor to the address presented by the Mayor of Lille. lie said: YV.lieu some years ago I came for the first time to visit the Department of tliqjjlord, everything smiled upon my wishes,.JT had just espoused the Empress, and, I maiyyay, I had also just wedded France, before,eight millions of witnesses. Order was restored, political passions were lulled to rest, and I foresaw for the country a new era of gifctncss and prosperity. At home the unioiMpisting among all good citizens presaged the peaceful dawn of liberty abroad. I saw our glorious flag protecting every cause of civilizing justice. During tbo last fourteen years many-of my hopes have been rcalhMtf, and grpuu-jfeo^ss lias been aceomplish<4BJ|.)ark spots,'AHPiPr, have darkened our horizon ; but even If good fortune has not dazzled me, *0 transient re verses will not discourage me. How should I be discouraged when I see from one end of France to the other the people meeting the Empress and myself with acclamations, in which are unceasingly associated the name of our sou. To-day Ido not come here only to celebrate a glorious anniversary in the capital of ancient Flinders. I also come to learn | your wants, to heighten the courage of some, ; to confirm the confidence of all, and to en • deavor to increase the prosperity of this great | department by still further developing its agri j culture, manufactures and commerce. You ; will aid me, gentlemen, in this noble task, but : you will not forget that the first condition of the prosperity of a nation like ours is to pos j sess the consciousness of its own strength, and not allow itself to be depressed by imaginary fears, but to rely upon the wi.dom and patriot ism of the government. The Empress, touched by the sentiments which you express, unites with me in thanking you for your warm and sympathetic welcome. The London News 6ays the Emperor Na poleon’s reported speeches at Arras and Lille make a very welcome and desirable sequel to the unreported conversation at Salzburg, and trusts they will succeed in allaying the irrita tion of the Prussian press, and the snspicion of tho German people. Tho London Times remarks that though the expressions in the Emperor’s two speeches have the usual vagueness of the imperial style, they aro undoubtedly peaceable in their tenor. The language of a part of the French press gives sufficient reason that warlike intentions should be explicitly denied, and the London Times believes that the Emperor’s sincere wish was to remove the disquietude that his recent Salzburg journey bad caused. It would be to belie bis sagacity to believe that he intends to precipitate a gigantic conflict with forty millions Germaus. Morganatic Marriages. —Every body has heard the term “ morganatic marriages,” and many people suppose that marriages of this kind are a species of concubinage in which the kings and princes of Europe aro fond of indulg ing. This is not the case, however. A mor ganatic marriage is just as binding upon the parties as any other, and precludes any other marriage- The term is derived from the Ger man morgengabe, which means a dowry. It signifies a matrimonial contract in which one of tlie parties is greatly superior in rank to the other. If it be the bride who is of inferior rank, she agrees that she and her children shall be entitled to neither the rauk nor the estate of her tiusband, and that the dowry Which is set tled upon her at the time of the marriage shall be accepted in Men of all other privileges. If the man be inferior, lie gives bis assent to simi lar conditions. In the bridal ceremony tha party of superior rauk gives the left hand, Instead of tho right, to the other —whence these marriages are sometimes styled “ left-handed.” One of the most famous marriages of this class was that of Frederick William the Third, of Prussia, to the Countess Augusta, of Harracb, upon whom her husband conferred the rank of Princess of Liegnitz—a marriage consummated in 1824, long alter the death of the king’s more legitimate spouse, the beautiful Queen Louisa. The Princess of Liegnitz is still living—a widow since 1840. The Ashlby-Botler Conspiracy—Addi tional Disclosures to be Made.— lt is said that a mass of testimony bearing upon the al leged Asbley-Butlcr conspiracy has been col lected since tho publication of the Conover dis closures, and will soon be given out in another elaborate paper from the office of the Attorney General. The additional testimony will in clude au affidavit of Captain Chandler, former ly ofdlie jail here, in which some important Items are developed as to the proceedings ol the alleged congressional conspirators, show ing tho connection with Conover aud the way in which his aid was to be obtained. Inter views between Mr. Dunham and Gen. Butler are said to be sworn to in ono of the affidavits, and one of tho affidavits relates an occasion where Butler is alleged to have paid SSO to Mrs. Dunham, and to have upbraided her lor not ac complishing what was expected from hor.— Chandler is said to boa man of good character, against whom nothing damaging can be pro duced- He is also a Radical, but ho is Baid to have been so disgusted by what ho saw and heard that he deemed it his duty to inform the Government. — Wash.
