•JOISTST IT UTIONALIST. AUGUSTA. GA. SUNDAY MORNING. JUNE 7, 1808 “GBEAT MORAL IDEAS.” We have frequently mentioned in these '■'columns that the tendency of Radicalism was, having arrogated all power in the State, to storm the very battlements of heaven and dethrone God himself. Seve ral examples have been previously furnish ed in proof of this charge, and, as the man ifestations are wholly confined, so far as the public is made aware, to the great Re publican factions, it is fair to presume that, having spat upon and trampled the written law of the laud, they will not and do not hesitate to spurn and violate the majesty of the written law of God. The Baltimore Gazette takes the same view of the matter, and thus speaks: “ Not content with conspiring to revolu tionize the form of government under which the country for three-quarters of a century prospered beyond all precedent, the Radi cals are now making a bold effort to de stroy all belief in Christianity. The ‘ Free Religious Association,’ which was organiz ed at Boston in the autumn of last year, held its first business and public meeting at Tremout Temple, in the same city, on Fri day last. Every one of the promoters of this crusade upon churches and members of church organizations are Radicals of the extremist type. Among the speakers were Wendell Phillips, Rev. O. B. Frothingham, of New York; Rev. Robert Collyer, of Chicago; Rev. James Freeman Clarke, Rev. Olympia Brown and the Rabbi Nathans. The musical interludes were by the Hutch inson Family. It was the first formal gath ering of anew party of destructives. “The President of the Association, the Rev. O. B. Frothingham, led the attack.— He declared that religion and Christianity were not synonamous, that Christianity is only a sect; ‘only one of several Christian religions. Multitudes of the spiritualists,’ said he, ‘arc not Christians. Vast num bers of Reformers will not call themselves Christians. True religion demands that .no limit shall be put on human thought.— Hcieuce rejects and confutes Christianity,’ and in this audacious manner lie went on to cast contempt on things sacred. “ The Rev. Jas. Freeman Clarke next took the stand. He announced himself as *au orthordox Unitarian, if there is such a thing. lie believed in Christianity; thought there was much good in it; that it included all the virtues of all the other re ligions, and that it is large enough to in clude all sects.’ The Rev, Robert Collyer said he would ‘ try and pull down one of Brother Clarke’s bills.’ Mr. Collyer wel comed the Free Religious Assoaiation as ‘ a new-born child of God.’ It iiad been “spanked into great animation already, and when it has passed through the mea sles, the whooping-cough and the scarlet fever,’ he predicted, ‘it would come out vigorous and strong.’ He believed that Science was the handmaid of Christianity, aud that both together they will sweep all things to their bosom.- The Rev. 11. W. Malcolm, a Baptist preacher, desired that the Free Religious Association ‘might be come a place of refuge for those distressed lor conscience sake.’ lie wanted to tear down all ecclesiastical barriers and demolish all intolerance in tlie church. The Rev. Olympia Brown was opposed to destroying denominational or ganization ; she would use the sects to dis seminate the doctrine of free religion based on free thought. The Rev. J. P. Hubbard believed ‘ i)i the central fact of tiigi»v?#>rua tion—the dsMU of Christ. 7 He also believed «in the nebular hypothesis.’ He denied that Christianity was eit her ## intellectual belief or a dogma. He contended Rjgt ‘it Jias been and still is a mighty power in the world—if we analyze it.’ The Rev. John; Weiss, Rational Minister at Waterbury. Massachusetts, boldly and blaspbeffiously repudiated the divinity of Christ. He called upon the members of the Association to di rest themselves of all faith in both the old and new Testament, and to trust .only to the operation of their own intelligence. He pictured 4 the man Jesus Christ standing beside Colonel Shaw, Massachusetts’ bravest blood, and a disciple at the feet of Theodore Parker. Jesus Christ standing beside Colo nel Shaw on the parapet of Fort Wagner, and saying to him, I Do you believe my miracles, do you believe in toe ? If not, stay your hand, hold back your forces.’ Then would Shaw reply. 4 Away with you and your miracles; I have a miracle to work to-day, and mayhap a resurrection to achieve, truer than Ihc resurrection re ported of you—a resurrection which you, more than all other men, know is not, true. Am I for you ? Yes, if you are for the slave ; yes, if you are tor free America ; if not, no, and let me to my work,’ “ In the evening the Rev. Colonel Hig ginsoo was the principal speaker. He de nounced sects and sectionalism. ‘No great reforms,’ he said, 4 were ever promoted by the clergy.’ The only religion worthy of acceptance was " natural religion.” And to the Radicals, as the earnest advocates of natural religion, lie ascribed fill the great reforms of the day. In this scoffing manner did these free religionists deal with ques tions of vital import and acknowledged sanctity. Nothing to them was hallowed ; nothing worthy of reverence. The only religion adapted to their exalted intellects was that of Nature ; the only worship that of Reason. There were indeed Sony; few clergymen present who ventured to enter a mild protest against the downright Deism of the Rev. Frothiugham, and the brazen atheism of the Rev. AYeiss; but, on the whole, even Tom Paine would have been satisfied that tiie Free Religious Society was making good progress downward, and that most of its members were already on the direct road to infidelity.” JHou. George H. Pendleton's name seems to be geciine more popular every day, as the can didate oft he Democracy for next President. The Nashville Union, of Tuesday, publishes an editorial urging that the Tennessee delegation to the National Democratic Convention be in structed to vote lor him. The popular feeling iu the State of Tennessee is said to be intensely In favor of Mr. Pendleton. t [From the Cincinnati Enquirer. The Israelites —General Grant and Mr- Pendleton- A correspondent in New York lias writ ten to us to republish the celebrated order of General Grant in relation to the Isra elites, as a class, issued when he was in command of the Thirteenth Army Corps, In the Department of the Tennessee, in connection with the resolution offered relating thereto by Mr. Pendleton, in the House of Representatives at Washington. The following is the order: Headq’rs Thirteenth Army Corps, 1 Department of the Tennessef,, > Oxford, Miss., December 17, 1801. ) General Order No. 11. The Jews, as a class, violating every reg ulation of trade established by the Treas ury Department, also department orders, are hereby expelled from the department within twenty-four hours from the receipt of this order by post commanders. They will see that all this class of people are furnished with passes and required to leave; and any one returning after such notification will be arrested and held in confinement until an opportunity occurs of sending them out as prisoners, unless fur nished with permits from these headquar ters. No passes will be given this people to visit headquarters for the purpose of making personal application for trade per mits. By order of Major General Grant. John A. Rawlings. Assistant Adjutant General. Official: J. Lovell. Capt. and Ass’t Adj’tGen’i. The above reads very much like some of the u/casts which have been issued by the despotical Princes of Europe and Asia in reference to this people. Nothing like it was ever before heard of in the United States. To commeut upon it is useless, it is its own best comment. It thoroughly illustrates the unfitness of General Grant for his civil trust, and his entire and thor ough ignorance of anything like republican institutions. When the news of this order reached Washington, George 11. Pendleton, then being a member of the House, offered the following resolutions, which likewise need no comment: “ Whereas, On the 17th day of Decem ber, 1863, Major General Grant , command ing the Department of the Tennessee, did publish the following order, to-wit: [here followed the above order verbatim,] and in pursuance thereof did cause many peace able citizens of the United States, residents in said department, to be expelled there from within twenty-four hours, without al legation of special misconduct on their part, and on no other proof than that they were members of a certain religious denom ination; aiid “ Whereas, The said order, in its sweep ing condemnation of a whole class of citi zens, without discrimination between the guilty and the innocent, is illegal and un just, and in its execution is tyrannical and cruel; therefore “ Resolved,, That the said order deserves the earnest condemnation of this House, and of the President, the Coinmander-in- Cliief.” [From the Cincinnati Enquirer. Schuyler Colfax. IIIS RESOLUTION TO EXE EL MR. LONG. It is universally conceded by all who know anything of this man, that he has done a larger amount of political business, on a small capital, than any other person iu the country. Nature has been extreme ly limited in the bestowal of intellectual faculties to him. He was gotten up on the smallest scale, and yet he has been fourteen years in Congress, is now Speaker of the House, and candidate for Vice-President of the United States. It is said thata young hopeful, who had emigrated from the East to the West, alter arriving in the land ot promise, wrote his father substantially thus: “ Dad : Come right, out at gdpc, tor migh ty mean men get office here.” If tor mean we substitute small, we might suppose that Colfax was thus invited \y.e“t>vard. The’most fjoticeable thing that was ever performed by Colfax was his leaving the Speaker’s chair of the House to offer a reso lution, in 1863, of expulsion against Alex ander Long, a member of Congress from his county, Who had delivered a political speech, whose sentiments did not agree with the illustrious Colfax’s, ft was not pretended that Mr. Long hud said anything that was personal, or that he iiad in any manner infringed the courtesy of debate.— On fkc .contrary, he was exceedinly grave and decorous Colfax thought lie ought to be expeltua &r his opinions— for the opinions of Ids const it ucooi vyhicli he represented. This principle reduces a representative body to very simple ele ments, iudesd, as can be readily perceived. A more disgraceful act was never sought to be perpetrated in Congress—a;: act that struck down all liberty of dicussion, and rendered the deliberations in that body the merest large. Had it not been for the vigor of Mr. Pendleton and flther leading Demo cratic members, this resolution of Colfax would have been adopted. As General Grant claimed, by a general order, which we published a day or two ago, the right to suppress any newspaper whose sentiments did not agree with his hig'h-mightin.ess, so Colfax would h¥P,el from Congress all his political opponents who dared to differ with him in debate. In this tyranny any intol erance of opinion they are an admirably matched pair, and go exceedingly well together on a ticket. Both have shown their willingness to be the agents and tools of despotism- ‘•The Colored Troops Fought Ho rly.” —lf yon want to know how the negro will fight, look at the history of his doings or non-doings in the late war. If that doesn’t satisfy you, contemplate the sublime spectacle of his late achievements in Abys sinia. Tpere 15,000 Africans were in battle array, protected by almost impregnable walls on an almost inaccessible height, with twenty-eight heavy pieces of artillery, five thousand stand of small arms, and a thous and while only ten thousand British were led against then). The tight lasted two days, and th,e black devils of war lost only six hundred killed, (t'dy fiftceg hundred wounded, and only fourteen thousand pris oners! And how many pf the British, all exposed as they were, do you suppose were lulled? A hundred? Oh no. Filly? Cer tainly not. Ten? Not a bit of it. How many then? Why, to tell you the truth, not one, Well, how many do you think were wPbbded ? Give it up. Just fifteen, neither more nor legs- Perhaps the cannibal poytjon pf ihp Afri cans, the black anthropohagi, light some what more desperately than the Abyssin ians, inasmuch as they light for their break fast, lunches, dinners, and sappers. Our hungry negroes, when they succeed in getting to Africa, tyi!] be sure to make a rush for the man eating region. They can't see a ujan now without an almost impress ible desiye to cook, masticate, and digest him. After having eaten a man out of house and home, their jtiexf, recourse will undoubtedly be to eat him. [JfOuimlle Journal. At the (Spring Held Armory the April payments were $35,000. This sum is a heavy failing pfl’ from war times, when the monthly disbursements ran up to $185,000. Work is running low, and the live hundred armories now'employed are mostly engaged in repairing a lot of three thousand “ short Enflelds,” which they will make as good as new at small expense. Five hundred Springfield muskets have just been altered into breach-loaders according to the Rem ington plan, the practical value of which will now be folly tested. [ Correspondence ol the Constitutionalist. Letter from Athens, Ga. Athens, June 4th, 1868. Mr. Editor: I am sojourning in this very pleasant town fora short time, and will give yon a few items of information, ob tained from reliable sources, that may prove interesting to the general reader of a news paper. I have taken some pains to ascer tain the condition of the crops, and upon the whole consider the prospect decidedly promising, and with favorable seasons fromfnow out, I think the labor of the far mers will be abundantly rewarded. There is of course some complaint, but fault find ing with farmers is a chronic disease, and due allowance must be made for them on this account. The report of the wheat crop is rather contradictory, and I have no doubt some localities are considerably injured by rust, confined, however, as far as 1 can as certain, entirely to the blade, and while the quantity will thereby be somewhat reduced, the quality is generally reported to be very good. The breadth of land sown this year is sufficiently greater than last to counter balance the injury from rust, and from the best information I can obtain, think the yield will not fall materially short of last year in this locality and surrounding coun try. In Oglethorpe and Elbert the wheat crop is reported fine. In Madison, Franklin, J ickson and counties adjoining these, being later, the rust has done more injury. Har vesting will commence in about a week or ten days. 1 heard a leading merchant say to-day that flour must come down, aud lie expected to see it sell in this market at seven to eight dollars a barrel. I hope liis anticipations may be realized. The oat crop generally is very fine, though 1 hear of rust also in it in some places. They are not out of danger and may yet be destroyed ; rain now, in this section, would be of ser vice to this crop, and, in fact, would benefit the planting interest generally. The stands of corn and cotton arc universally reported line, and these crops, though late, are prom ising and good. They arc in excellent condition, ami the last week of hot weather has brought them forward rapidly. About as much cotton is planted in this neighbor hood as last, year, and with a favorable fall as much will be made. Letters received here from Arkansas and Mississippi report the bottom lands more overflowed than last ye tr and the prospect for a crop entirely destroyed. The editor of the Cultivator h&# also received a letter announcing the ap pearance ofthe worm in Louisiana—whether to the extent published in the palters 1 can not SilV. Gardens arc line and vegetables abund ant. A magnificent prospect for fruit of all kinds ; the best in some years. 1 saw eggs selling a day or two since at 10 cents a dozen ; butter, 20 cents :t pound ; chickens, 15 to JOc., according to size; corn, $1 a bushel; flour, $lO to sl4, according toqual ity, and other tilings in proportion. Busi ness of till kinds very dull, and will proba bly remain so during the season. The col lege is in a prosperous condition —from 175 to 180 students in attendance. The num ber at the High School, connected with the University, 1 have not exactly ascertained, but largely over a hundred 1 am informed. The students, I understand, are not as at tentive to their studies or progressing quite as well as last year. The kind heart and enlarged views of the gifted Chancellor leads him, 1 think, to overindulgence of the boys. They are to have a grand Tourna ment to-morrow afternoon—a very innocent and pleasant recreation of itself, but the preparations that have been making for the occasion, the past ten days, are not very conducive to mental culture. One privilege is granted the students now, that in my college days was sufficient cause for expul sion ; they are allowed to carry pistols pub licly about with them. 1 think the prac tice reprehensible, lint have heard that they did so to protect themselves from the insults and tlireatsofsome ofßullock and Blodgett’s brothers, alias negroes. If this is true they are excusable. Fearing l may weary you, I will dose, and if acceptable, will give you tyi occasional letter wlu!<; here. ,A. Irishmen and Hermans Read This.— During the recent discussions in the Penn sylvania Legislature, (says the flrpyMican and Drownal, of Greensbury, Pa.,) to strike out the word “ white” from the constitution, ami on the registry bill, John Hickman, the Radical member from Chester, said : “ I may possibly see the day that I may walk side by side with a colored woman. I have seen a great many colored women that I would rather walk with than a great many white men. I know a greet many negroes who I til ink are better entitled to vole this moment than a great many white men who do vote, and have long exercised the franchise.” Again, he said: “ An intelligent negro is better than an Irish Catholic, and is entitled to a vote.” A. C. Reinhol, mongrel, from Lancaster, remarked: - If Democrats give the right of suffrage to foreign paupers, to whom a spelling book is a sealed mystery, and who still smells of bilge water, and from whose gar ments the Celtic aroma of the Teutonic fragrance of the fatherland lias not yet been removed by t,lie pure air of freedom, why should not tlie coffee colored descendants of the first families of the South have a voice in reconstructing the States of their forefathers.” Fisher, same stripe, from Lancaster, thought; “ The Democratic party was composed of bog-trotting, ignorant Irishmen, and swag bellied lager beer Dutch.” Langdon, of the Bradford district, re marked that: “ Negroes were better entitled to the elec tive franchise than Irishmen.” Andy Johnson. —There is a good deal of fear expressed lest the President will Rofc support the nominee of the Democratic par ty. JJut lam able to give you sonie posi tive infbrwfitloo on this bead, fu couver, sation with an Indiana politician, who call ed at the White House yesterday to congrat ulate its Occupant lipoii ,»E acqulttl., me subject came up. The Indianian suggested that the Democrats are a little afraid of the President. “ What, are they afraid off” Mr. John sou asked. “Do they think I’m not a good enough Democrat ? Is uot my record sound enough ? What is the matter ?” “ They think you liaye not come out square enough iu your appointments.’' “ Do limy mean Schofield V” “ Yes, that's one thing.” “ Jiow could Ido any better? I had to take what I could get. The Senate would not confirm any one else.” “ But they say you are not in sympathy with the Democratic prty.” “ 1 don’t know what you call in sympa thy. I certainly have done what I could against the I was born am] rais ed a Democrat, and consider myself as good a one at this moment as I ever was in my life.” “Do you mean to support, if I maybe allowed to ask, the New York nominee?” “I can’t do anything else. I’ve nowhere else to go. If I did not l could not do otherwise. The Democrats are too suspi cious ol me. They are too exacting. They don’t do me justice. If they’ll go and do right, they may always be easy about Andy Johnson.” — Cor. LovimUe Journal. A Goon Donaß.—A ynttug man in Califor nia, whose friends had ceased to correspond with him, woke up an interest by sending let ters to business men, in his native place, in quiring, the price of a tolerably sized farm.— Seven affectionate letters came from the lriends by the return post, and two or three a day have eoipe eyer since, including one from an old (and cold) sweetheart. “ What, are you doing with my microscope, George?” “I’ve been 6havipg, father, and I want to see if there are any hairs in the lather,” Military DespcHH, or Mode of On- ! taining “Suitable’^^widence.—Soou after our prisoners were sent off to Atlanta, yester day morning, a military squad came out to my house and compelled seven eo.oied servants and children to accompany them to headquar ters, where they were severally examined as to their knowledge of I)r. Jurkscey’s whereabouts on the night of Asbbiirn’s murder, and what they have since heard ffe Dr. say about it, &c. So tar all right; but when a witness did not tell enough to suit thef, the yentlemen exam ining would accuse theii ol lying, saying “they had a fortune teller fho had told them ail about it and what the, knew,” and threatened them with a shaved he' J, a hall aud chain, aud being at once sent to I »rt Pulaski if they did not tell the truth— as ting which they would prefer, Fort Pulaski r Tortugas?

Shepherd. Wynnton, June 4,,1668. f Columbus Sun {$ Times. Rubbing the SaiA In.—The New York Times thus alludes to Forney’s explanation of the imitation of Hayes’ telegram : We published lrottt the Savannah Republican, a few days sinee, a statement ot the ntauuer in which a telegraphic dispatch, sent bv M r. Hayes, the editor of that paper, to J. W. Forney, Jr., ol the Philadelphia Press , at his request, aud giving a statement of the manner in which the news of the President's acquittal was received in that city, was deliberately altered so as to couvey an exactly opposite idea to that which its language d. Copies of the dispatch, as seut and as printed, with the changes made, were also published. The Press, replying to this, makes an abusive personal attack on Mr. Hayes, and closes hy sayiug that “ this is the jast and only notice we shall take of the affair in our columns.” pf course it is simply a con fession of the tniiMof everything alleged. The Press had much better have said notliiug. The wheat in Bedford county is said to be looking remarkably well, justifying the hope of an abundant crop.
