“Do I still love thee TANARUS” Ask the bee
If he still loves the flower ;
And of the flower demand if she

And ssk the bird if still be loves
The Joy that summer brings—
Soft sirs, blue eyes, snd leafy groves,
That listen while h« sings.
If bee, and flower, and bird say “Nay, ”
Then my love’s false and fled away.
“ Why do I love thee ?” Ask the sea
Why it adores the moon;
And ask the queenly rose why she
Dotes on the month of June;
And ask the sun-flower why she tarns
Her bosom to the sun
And sll the dark night fondly yearns
For her most cherished one.

Ah ! who the secret source can tell
Os love that long endures?
The charm is unendurable
That draws my soul to yours.
I only know that still my love
Is centered all in yon,
As constant as the stars above,
And pure a* morning dew I
Enough, though hid the cause may be,
iff love you—and you love me.

Covington, 0a„ June 22, 1871.
THE CITT CF COVINGTON.
Accepting the invitation of a cotton
merchant of Augusta, who has a line coun
try residence and plantation here, we left
Augusta in the evening and arrived at
Covington next morning. The principal
object in visiting Covington was to get
among the planters and other country peo
ple, and to talk with them about matters
in general. 1 would never suspect that
this was a city, but the people say it is ;
so it mqst be one. It has 2,100 inhabi
tants, an actual incorporation, a mayor
and city council. It covers an area of two
miles square. The city is huddled in the
centre of this space, and the reuiainder of
the corporated territory is a succession of
small farms.
The city is notqd in a social way for its
female college, and as the annual com
mencement is about to take place, there
are a number of visitors iu town. Two or
three miles from here ia Oxford, which
coutaiua a male college of considerable
importance, probably the best in the State.
There are all kinds of stores here, and
some of them do a busiuess of from $50,-
GUO to SIOO,OOO per annum. It is an im
portant point for selling aud shipping cot
ton, and lias several enterprising buyers,
who paid to-day 19c for middling—within
2c: of the New York quotations—and
were anxious to buy largely at that figure.
The community is decidedly morel. I
was told of a young man who went from
the moral atmosphere of Covington to
“that immoral place, New York,” aud
successfully resisted all the temptatious
to which he was subjected there! This
was quoted as a great achievement.
Covington possesses the finest water
power in this part of the State. It is a
river of good volume, with a fall of sixty
four feet in three-quarters of a mile,.capa
ble oi easy management, owing to several
natural advantages. There is any quanti
ty of blue granite on the spot for building
a dam, aqueduct, mills, factories, &o.
Some enterprising capitalist could make a
good thing by utilizing this great water
power. The cotton needed for manufac
turing put poses can be had on the spot,
and tho railroad station is only about a
mile distant. Tho town is prosperous and
the people active and enterprising, though
lacking sufficient capital to do business.
Among a number of persons to whom I
was introduced in town, was an old gentle
man, aged about 70, who Was reading tbe
Atlanta Sun, Mr. Alexander H. Stephens’
organ- His name is Judge Reynolds.
J ust who the Judge is, or what he is judge
of, lam unable to say. But lam told
that he lost a fortune by the war, but is
still wealthy, and that he is considered the
ablest man in Covington. Ho has a good
sized head, broad forehead, towering per
coptives, wiry eyebrows, keen eyes, Urge
nose, and a firmly dosed mouth with its
oorners pointing downward. He looks like
a good man to avoid in discussion. Ow
ing to the prominenoe of the man, 1 re
solved to ask
JUDGE REYNOLD*’ VIEWS.
“ Well, *ir," stid the old gentleman, “I
kill give you my views. The South has
been badly treated Binee the war. It thb
war bad dealt generously with us wo would
have got along very well.”
The Republican party has had oontrol,
Judge.
‘‘That makes no difference. The ma
jority of the Northern people send. Radi
oale to Congress. If they desired to legis
late for our interests they would not elect
Radicals. They have oppressed us with
the constitutional amendments and the re
construction acts, and all sorts of unconsti
tutional impositions. What guaranty have
we, in linking our fortunes with the North
ern Demooraov, that we will be better off
than now? They are not over kind. We
have no guaranty, In my opinion, there
is only one course for the people of the
South to follow. Lot them hold aloof
from any departure from the principles
they have always maintained. Ido not
believe the amendments to the Constitu
tion are valid, beoause they interfere with
die rights of the States-”
Do you expect to annul those amend
ments ?
“No 1 We don’t expect to do anything
except submit quietly to what we can't
help, refusing to affiliate with any party
until the time comes when we oan better
our oondition. We will probably vote the
Democratic ticket, but we will not ac
quiesce in their platforms, or advooate
any of thoir doctrines. In faot, I will
oppose them on the stump, in the House,
and everywhere. I have not since the
war seen the party in this country that
suits me. I believe in the old doctrines of
the Constitution and State rights ; I be
lieve the amendments to the Constitution
and the reconstruction acts are unconsti
tutional, and I have hopes that some day
we may overthrow them. But until the
Democratic party shall enunciate those
principles as a party, it cannot ex pout to
receive the vote of the white people of the
South ; and while we may quietly submit,
as 1 said, to what we cannot avoid, we
cannot believe in that party, accept its
platform, or advoeate the principles it
seems to have adopted. The issues I
speak of are not dead.”
IHK VIEWS OF ANOTHER HAN.
The first msn I saw was a resident of
the eity of Covington, who had just re
ceived a letter irom a vety prominent
Georgian, written with a view to feel the
pulse of that section and combine the
political elements if possible. He read it.
The idea contained was about like this.
Whereas, we have arrived at a point
where our votes and influence are needed
by the two great parties of the North,
and whereas wa don’t oare much about
either of them ;'and whereas, we are “oc
the make,” and whichever party will oon
oede the most it will be to the interest of
the South to follow ; therefore, be it re
solved, that we stand and look quietly on,
refusing to vote at all until we think the
proper oonoessioos shall hare been made,
and then vote with the party making the
greatest concessions ! The letter reaited
that the writer believed the politicans of
the North would appeal to the passions
and prsjndioes aroused among the people
during the war, and re-elect President
Grant Therefore he thought it advisa
ble that the people of the South should
ooasider the subjeot carefully so ail its
bearings, and if they deemed it advisable,
refrain from taking any part in national
politics and await offers. It wu not diffi
e«U to MO the drift of the gentleman’s ar-
gameot. He evidently thinks with Mr.
Steph-ns, and is endeavoring to nave
Georgia, with her 50,000. Democratic
majority, take a stand on tbe issues as de
fined by' Mr. Stephens, and go with the
party that will adopt and advocate them
as issues.
THE VIEWS OF OTHER MEN.
We called on Judae Pace-, who ia keep
ing a store here and doing's fio-‘ bnsioc- . j
He is a man of superior intelligence, sc- 1
tive aDd practieal.
“Well, Judge, said I, w!.at do you
think of the political condition of the j
Sooth ?
“I don’t know or care. Wc have had
too much talk about tn >se thingp. I will
till you the price of cotton or any mer
chandise, and what I will give for produce
of aDy kind, but I am done with politics.
I am a Democrat, and will vote tbe ticket.
But I am satisfied to live under the gov
ernment of either parly so long a, they
give us an honest administration of :he
law, both State and National. If public j
officers will steal, why we must vote against
them next time for men who are honest.
But the people always regulate those
thioes at the ballot box in course of time.
“What I am concerned about, and what
we are all concerned about here, no matter
what a lew old fogies may tcil you, is cap
ita! and emigration, hook at th ■ iich
fields, the fine water power, ’the cheap
lands for sale. We want your Northern
men to b<_y them, and not only to buy
them, but come here and live among u,
and help us develop our great c tuntry.
Wc want your money, if you won’t come
yourselves, and we will pay coo l prices for
the use of it. so that we may develop our
resources. We want laborers, such as you
have among you, faithful, bard-work in
men. Yes, sir, we are ‘ new departure’
men, but that is the new departure we
want to embark in.”
I found a knot of men, each of whom is
a hard-working man, but sll are educated
and intelligent, and more or lei wealthy.
THey discussed the conten's of the letter
above referred to, and “aid the plan won 1 !
not suit the people of Georgia. It might
suit a few men who had lost considerably j
by the war, and who could even be induced j
to believe that at some day in the near j
future Congress would remunerate them \
for the loss of staves end for the destruc
tion of property during the w .r. But the
men who arc now trying to build up the
South had already cut loose from politi
cians, especially from the extremists. I hey
had ventured far enough to hold opinions
of their own. They believed the nc- w de
parture doctrine or some policy that wouid
stand where the statutes stand tc-day,
accepting the constitutional amendment;.-
as fixed facts, wonid carry with it the
strength of every Democrat in the Brnth,
and that the effect would be to crush out.
the element of extremism, as represented
by Judge Rjynolds aud Mr. Toombs and
Mr- Stephens, after the first teat. They
were tired of strife. Politics was an in
jury te their business. As to waiting for
offers from politicil parties in the North,
they did not see how they could vote with
the Republican party under promise of
suoh concessions as are expected by the
old school politicians of the Boutb. They
thought that would baa foolish “depend
ence. They had no idea that the Repub
lican party of the North would turn a
political somersault, and they recognized
the defeat of all ultra Democratic propo
sitions in thG willing spirit in which the
Northern Democracy aeiz.-d tho new de
parture theory.
“Your people of the North,” said one,
“don’t seem to credit us with common
sense. Your correspondent c»ma among
us and select the very men who are in the
least degreo representative men. They in
terview them, and by their publications
stir up the war spirit of the North, and
set us back iu our effort to go forward.
They interviewed Robert Toombs. Toombs
is a fine type of' a gentleman social y, but,
sometimes grows violent. I have no doubt
he said all the correspondents claim that
he said, but ho don't talk those theories
here. Only a few days since he told a
friend he was satisfied with the new de-
parture doctrine of the Democracy. Bob
Toombs was a rampant secessionist before
the war, and remained at home when the
war come on. Now he is injuring the
State of Georgia by some more of his stub
born theories that ho probably does not
fully believe in himself. You may tell
your people that Bob Toombs is respected
here on account of his great talents, but
ho could not be elected sheriff of his
own county, because the people have
dropped him from the rcll of representative
men. As for Mr. Stephens, the people of
Georgia love him.. He is a great-man in
intellect, honest in expression of opinions,
and pure as snow in public life. They
would humor him to almost anything, be
cause they feel that ho is growing old j but
when it comes to a question es opinioo at
the polls, the people of Georgia are op
posed to the theories advanced by Mr.
Stephens. Do give us credit for a little
sense. Toll your people that we are not a
set of fools, led arcund by the nose by a
few men. We are as loyal to (ho Govern
ment, as peaceable at our homes, in every
way as good citizens as the people of New
York- Tell them that you have traveled
through a considerable portion of Georgia.
I am sure no onp has molested or inter
fered with you. Wendell Phillips could
do the same thing. No one wiil molest or
insult you if you go to any city, town or
village iu the State.”
I have given the statement quoted above
for tho roason that my experience in
Georgia has shown-that it portrays the
feeling of the masses as vividly as I could
possibly write it down. The representa
tive Southern man speaks as Judge Pace,
or as the gentleman last quoted speaks.
They arc honest about it, too. They want
peace and prosperity, Northern capita!
and immigration. W. P. G.

A Hired Assassin.
REMARKABLE SCANDAL IN SARATOGA
COUNTY.
The southern part of Saratoga connfy
has lately been greatly excited over a mat
ter, the developments in regard to which
are about as follows: A little more than a
week ago, Isaac G. Lansing, a farmer,
living in the to.vn of Halfinonn, went
West with a gentleman from Visoher’s
Ferry to buy sheep. Immediately after
his departure a most horrible story be
camo whispered about, the substance of
which was that Mr- Lansing had bargained
with a man to murder his wife during his
absqpce. When Mr. Lansing returned,
he found the rumor was rife in his neigh
borhood, and at once commenced a suit
for slander, and obtained cn order of ar
rest against Abram Devon, of Crescent,
the author of the story. Upon being ar
rested, Devon at once made a criminal
complaint against Lansing for plotting
the murder of his own wife, upon which
Lansing was arrested yesterday and ar
raigned before Justice Cramer, of Water
ford-
The examination of Lansing was at once
proceeded with, apd Devoo disclosed a
state of faats which, it true, reveal a riot
for wife-murder on the part of Lansing
which, in horrible and cold-blooded details,
rivals lluloff’s most damnable crimes.
Devoo swears that more than a year ago
Lansing approached him with complaints
of “troubles in'his family,” and a proposi
tion to Devon to get his wile “out of the
way,” for a consideration. Devoo says
he received the proposition favorably, and
that on the strength of it he has at various
times received favors from Laming, in the
shape of firt-wood, etc,, and small sums
of money. Devoe also disclosed the na.-
turo of tho proposition to several persons,
telling them that he intended to make u-e
of it to get considerable money out of
Lansing and finally expose him. As De
voe' s story goes, about two weeks ago
Lansing told him that he was about to
leave home for several dayt, that J.js wife
would be alone in the house, which is quite
isolated, every night with their two small
children, and he wanted the bu.-inessdone
then. Devoe relates the details of instruc
tions which he received from Lansing,
how to enter the house through a certain
insecure window, how to make his en
trance noiseless, where to find his sleeping
wife, how to find certain jewelry and
silverware in various parts of the house,
which he was to take aw.tr, and thus to
make it appear that plunder the ob
ject ; also how to rob a neighbor’s house
near at hand, and thus make the “ blind”
darker, and finally how .Landsing caution
ed him to “ make no mistake.” and “ not
harm the children,” but* to “ make sure
work of it.” Then the blood-money was
paid, the sum being $lO5, and the devil
ish business arranged. Devoe tells his
story in such minute detail, and connects
so many collateral facts and outside par
ties incidentally with it, that before the
investigation is closed it cannot fail to ap
pear that Devoe has told an ingenious and
tremendous lie, or Laasing ought to be
hung. The examination is adjourned to
the 26th inst. Mrs. Lansing has some
property, and both she and her husband
are very respectably connected. The
" trouble in the family,” it is rumored, is
certain entanglements with other women,
and the wife’s property is suggested as
an inducement to the plotting. It is cer
tainly a most strange and unfortunate af
fair. __

OIK YANKEE TIILEBIEg-
THE FIRST OCCUPANT.
SKETCHES AND MEMOIRS OF THE WHITE
HOUSE.
{Correspondence 0/ the Cincinnati Gazette.'] j
Washington Citt, Jnne 21.
About our Yankee Tuileries, our Amer
ican linckinghatu, elnstc-r many interest
ing and romantic incidents. They are
pertinent to oar history, and figure in its
brightest chapters. The presidential man
sion is necessarily the most conspicuous
place of residence iu the w hole country.
Sketches ami memoirs of it consequently
possess a peculiar interest.
The President's mansion was called the
“ White House " in honor of tbe name of
the early Virginia home of Martha Wash
ington. Some chronicles find in the color
of its walls sufficient explanation of its
christening.
It is built of porons white free stone
from Virginia. A heavy coat of white
lead is essential to exclude dampness Its
facade is 170 feet; depth, 80. The site is
44 feet above high water mark. Hobon,
the architect, modeled the White House
after a Dublin edifice. Ia 1792, seventy- j
nine years ago, the corner stone was laid.
Eight years afterward—when the Gov
ernment was moved here, the first year
of the cantary—the White House and one
wing of the Capitol were the only public j
buildings approaching completion. Logs
thrown across the celebrated Tiber (which
flows beneath Pennsylvania avenue at
Second street), served as a footway for
George Washington and a procession in
1793. At that time the national capital
was a forlorn and desolate spot. It con
sisted principally of irregular hills
grown over by a scant forest of scrub
oaks. Between the Capitol, on capitol
hill, and the President’s mansion and Rock
creek, farther west, a few straggling
houses and shanties denoted its reclama
tion from the savages, but only two com-
I sortable dwellings gave promise of the
j future city.
New Jersey avenue was then th'e only
road on the site. A waste of undergrowth
and morass of alder stretched out over
the space now threaded by Pennsylvania
avenue. Not even a path was cut through
tod(fiae its location. The surroundings
were oppressively dreary, when
THE FIB ST OCCUPANT,
bru-que, honest. John Adams, came down
from cheery New England, bringing his
wife, Abigail, to preside over tho new
preddenual mansion.
Tim seat, of government was removed
from Philadelphia to Washington in June,
1800 Mrs. Adams was the first “Re
publican Queen” in the White House.
Fortunately she had much seif-culture, a
wide cxpericence, and the sparkle of her
genius is bequeathed us in her letters.
Most of her feminine contemporaries were
uneducited. That period believed in illiter
ate women. But the intellect of Mrs.
Adams was too vigorous to be curbed aDd
dwarfed by conventional dictum, though a
score of years before she had inveighed
bitterly against woman’s assumption of
independence. When describing, with
particular and amusing candor, the self
assertion of Madame Helvetius, in Paris,
Mrs. Adams wrote: “I own that I was
highly disgusted, aud nevor wish for an
acquaintance with any ladies of this cast.”
Such good friends were the brilliant Hei
vciius and n enjamin Franklin that the
gossips of tho day made a matrimonial
match between them. She occupied the
villa at the beautiful retreat and Parisian
suburb, Auteui!. Her dwelling was after
ward tho home of Count Rurnford, and
recently the scene of the murder of Victor
Noir 1-y Pierre Bonaparte. Mrs. Adams
lived there a year ; Dr. Franklin, longer;
and amoDg the other illustrious residents,
who have contributed to the celebrity of
Auteuil, were La Fontaine and Boileau.
The Quincy matron must huvo expressed
her disgust of splendid womanhood in a
fit of euvy, for we find her giving to his
tory the best picture of the situation here
at the dawn of the century.
Mr?. Adam3 had resided four y«ars in
Europe. She came to Washington in No
vember, 1800. Her descriptive letters are
richly set with those trifles which the
masculine mird neither perceives nor re
cords. She gives a vivid picture of her
tourney from Baltimore.’ A great forest
was penetrated. Tho travelers got lost
Utid wandered two hours. “Fortunately,”
quoth she, “a straggling black oarne up
with us, ar.d wo engaged him as a guide,
to extricate us out ot our difficulty.”
Dlilcs were traveled without seeing a hu
man being; at rare intervals a log cabin
with one small window struggled to view
above the hazel. Arrived in the “Wil
derness city” on Sunday, finding the
White House barndike and without bells.
Many Georgetown ladies called on her.
“ Yesterday,” wrote she, “ fiftcep visits ”
wero returned. Such a thing is.now un
know-. The mistress of the White House
in 1871 does nut return visits of the
Georgetown ladies. The east room, since
so celebrated, she used for a family
laundry. Dike Flora McFlimsey, she had
“ nothing to wear.” The vessel bearing
her wardrobe was down the Polo mao, be
calmed. There was not' even a looking
glass at hep command. President Adams
occupied two of the sis finished chambers.
In the midst of her letter (it bears date
November 21, 1890) she wa3 interrupted
by the arrival of a servant fiom the Mt.
Vernon estate bringing a note from M-jor
Cu tis and a haunch of venison. Oh,
primitive times! Though enveloped by
wood?, they were woodless. “Congress
poured in, but shiver, shiver,” she wrote.
Laborers were as scarce as fuel, \ Penn
sylvania wagon and a treasury clerk
brought relief. A load of logs for-the
twelve big fireplaces oi the mansion was
hauled. The chronicler neglects to hand
down his name, but lot this valiant deed
of the department* clerk be cherished
among the archive 3 .
THE GROUNDS
of the While House embrace about 20
acres. The grand old tjees west of the
mansion were planted by John Quincy
Adams. Groups and avenues of elm, oak
and sycamore give to the surroundings a
lordly air. A massive high stone wall,
adopted front the feudal styles of England,
onco inclosed the place, but this give
way to the tall iron fencing of to-day.
Torn Moore visited it in 1804, arid wrote :
"The-President’s house is encircled by a
very rude pale, through which a common
rustic still introduced visitors.” Now
comely iron gates open the front carriage
way aud foot approaches. These lead to
the great north portico, erected during
Jackson’s time and ornamented with ten
lonic ooluvjjns.
Making presents to tho President is not
a modern invention. Houses and elegant
teams were not as plentiful ia those old
days as now. Bears, turkeys, deer and
sheep were among the zoological gifts to
Jefferson. This menagerie roamed at
will in the White House grounds, and a
tragedy is a part of its history. A vici
ous ram killed the young son of a \Y ash
ington banker.
A small park shields the White House
from the dust of Pennsylvania avenue.
In the center of it stands a nondescript
bronze statue, purple with years and neg
lect. Across the avenue is Lafayette
j square—the Belgravc off the .national
| capital- A bronze equestrian statute by
; Mills, giving a lively pose to Old. Hick
j-ory’s horse, occupies the attention and
1 the middle of Lafayette square.
, in the rear of the White House is a
; grassyjawn sprinkled with the spray of a
j fountain ; beyond, southwardly, the viep
I is unobstructed for miles, old Fort Wash
j ington in the dim distance olingipg to the
j banks of the Potomac.
| Groves on either side or the lawn are
| thridded by paths that wind beneath
! drooping willows. A mistress of the
1 mansion was once felicitated on its occu
pancy. She sentontiously replied; "It
l is a happy dwelling. Aiways. a President
| comes in by the iron gate ; oftea, he goes
j out under the weepirg willows.” One-
I fifth of them—Harrison, Taylor, Lincoln !
! To the lady of the White House during
Jackson’s day, Mrs. Bonelsou, four chil
dren were born under its roof. Mrs.
President Tyler ded there in 1842 ; and
Wiilie Lincoln daring the war.
WHITE HOUSE TRAGEDIES.
Many whisper of the mystery shrouding
Harrison’s death. Some vehement Whigs
do not accept the theory of Taylor’s
taking oft. And perhaps a mere iueident
transferred the scene of Lincoln s assassi
nation from the mansion to Ford’s theater.
The same fiendish daring that took Payne
, to Seward’s sick chamber, assassin’s knile
; in hand, would have taken Booth to Lin
! coin’s office in the White House. Admit- j
ted to his presence in the usual way, as- •
| suming an air of business, he could have I
i plunged the dagger to Lincoln’s heart in
i true brigand style, and, with sic semper
tyrannis on his tongue, leaped out of the
window to the South park, and escaped in
i the copse skirting the Potomac-
It was before the ancient palace oi
Whitehall, London, that Charles I. was
I beheaded. An opening was made in the
walls, through which the unfortunate
ruler was led to his doom. In the exist
ing remnant of that edifice the most ex
tensive fresco painting of Rubens is found.
The world is familiar with the whole
sale butchery—the political tragedies—
within the walls of that melancholy pub
lic building, the Hotel de Ville, Paris. It i
was a much older and finer structure than |
the White House. In each of the many j
French commotions it has been the scene i
of historic events and bloodshed.
But the W hite House, happily, has es
caped those tragedies which seem "so in
separable from seats of power.

{Special Correspondence of the New York

Atlanta, Ga., June 10.— The finances
of this State are not in as bid a condition
as those of South Caroline, but there have
been extravagance and dishonesty enough
on the part of the Legislature and certain
State officials to create much indignation
among the people, aud to seriously damage
the Republican party, which is charged
with all the sins of the few bad men who
professed its faith in the days of recon
struction, in craer that they might cet
into office. The t jx-payer. are not as ex
cited, however, as they are in South Caro
lina, ard tbe reason is that there has been
no increase ia the rate of taxation, and
the valuation of property is made cn oath
t-v the owner himself, instead of being
fixed by tbe ss.iessor 3 . The burdens im
posed on the tax-payers are not, therefore,
at once increased, the money Which ia said
to have been squandered having been ob
tained by increasing the State debt, and
by spending the earnings of a railroad be
longing to the State. This railroad runs
from At! eta to Chattanooga. Nobody
appears to know to what amount the
Sale debt has been increased since the re
constructed government got. oontrol. No
body .can know but (he Governor, wLo
! has been given by the Legislature a sur-
S prising latitude of discretion in the matter
of bonds, which he seems to print
and sell or hypothecate in quantities to
suit his judgment or convenience. The
CoDtroller-General rays he has do record
to show the number of new bonds issued,
and the Treasurer says that his office is
totally in the dark about the amount of
the debt, and that the Governor gives
him no' information upon the subject.
Governor Bullock says that when the
financial operations he is now eondu ting
are completed, ha thinks the augmenta
tion of tho debt sinoe he wont into office
will not exceed two millions, though why
it should have been increased at all, is not
ea: y to understand.
These financial operations now in 1 re
gress are tho-e about which there is most
comp'aint. Tho Legislature of la3t year
was in session loDg enough to empty the
treasury, devour the school-fund, and
contract additional expenses to the amount
of about $200,000, which there was no
money to pay. To raise money to meet
these unpaid bills, the Governor was
authorized to issue bond*, “to a sufficient
amount,” in the language of the law. Gov.
Bullock, under this authorization, has had
bonds printed to the amount of $2,000,000-
The Treasurer refused to sign the coupons,
and his signature was engraved and print
ed on them. He threatened a prosecution
for forgery, and the bonds thus printed
wire returned to him and replaced by
others, with the name of the Controller-
General substituted for that of the Treas
urer.
The same Legislature authorized the is
sue ot seven per cent, gold bonds sufficient
to redeem the old debt of the State as it
should fall due ; and, under this act, it is
charged that tour millions of dollars of
bonds have been issued, although the old
bonds now' due and redeemable amount to
only about $350,000. The public have no
knowledge of the amount of the obliga
tions that have been issued, or to what
uses the money realized lias been put, and
this gives rise to numerous rumors of the
employment of the funds for speculative
purposes. There is no question about .the
misuse of the revenues derived from the
State railroad. In 1869 this road brought
to the State Treasury the sum of $300,000.
At the beginning of 1870 the Governor,
who is ex-ofjlcio President of the road, ap
pointed his friend, Foster Blodgett, Super
intendent, who paid $25,000 into the treas
ury daring the first month of his manage
ment, and $20,000 the second, but'after
ward ceased to pay anything, At the end
ot the year it was found that not only had
all the earnings of the road been spent, but
that, a debt of $700,000 lieu been contract
ed, which the State liad to pay. Fortu
nately for tho tax-payers of Georgia, uds
system of railroad management is not still
going on. The road was leased in January
to a company of Northern capitalists, who
pay the State $25,000 per month for-its
use.
In tho profligate legislation of the last
session of the General Assembly, the nu
merous bills granting State aid to unim
portant local railroads are particularly rep
rehensible, The endorsement ot the State
was pledged to the bonds of 32 railroads,
covering a distance of over 2,000 miles,
and amounting to about $30,000,000.
Most of these roads arc of no importance,
and arc to connect, obscure villages, which
do not afford travel enough to support a
stage line. Only a small amount of this
immense obligation proposed to ho incur
red will, however, he saddled upon the
jdtato; for before any commencement can
be made in. building most of the roads,
the next Legislature will no doubt repeal
tho laws granting them aid. One road,
the Brunswick aud Albany, has been en
tirely constructed with funds raised by
pledging the State credit. It was first
given an endorsement of its own bonds by
the State to the amount of $15,000 per
mile, and last fill it reepiyed $3,00G more
per mile in State hand 3 , making $23,000
‘a mile. The road runs across a perfectly
level country, and its entire cost is said to
be less than $12,000 a mile. The men
who are building this road are, as might
be supposed, very potential with the Le
gislature and the powers that control the
State Government.
The strongest propensity in woman’s
nature, says a careful student of tho sex,
is to want to know what is going od, and
the next strongest is to boss the job.

Cincinnati Provision Marlict,
BY KENNEDY, ECKERT & CO.
Cincinnati, June 30, 1871.
Editors Chronicle & Sentinel: .
Since ours of 23d instant, the market for
provisions has ruled firm and holders ask
ing ami obtaining higher rates than last
reported. The only reason we can give
lor any advance is this, as we advised our
correspondents some timesince, tho month
of June was the heaviest of months for
delivery of contract stuff, aud as we were
drawing near its close, those haying short
sajes to cover were obliged to go into the
I market and had to submit to asking prices
j of holders, This demand is now satisfied
and advices from other points indicate an
easier tone to the markets. Consumers
are buying sparingly, and instead of fol
lowing up the advance they are counter
manding their orders, while speculators
have left the held. The bulk of the trading
done, is donpby those who made contracts
some time a.o, and now covering them.
The receipts of summer hogs instead of
decreasing are increasing, and the pro
duct of these hogs, which is beginning to
be ottered pretty freely, as well as our large
stotk of winter cured,must lind a market,
or anew season will find us with a very
largo stock on baud. The advices from
the South, the great consumer of hog pro
duct, are uot very encouraging—tiiey re

The market to-day opened strong but
closes rather quiet, buyers holding off.
Mess Pork opened at sls 50 as the asking
rate, but buyers were offish at over sl4 75.
Towards the middle, under encourag
ing advices from other points, the market
stiffened up, holders asking sls 50, one or
two transactions at sls 25. Choice conn
try, equal to city, is offered at sls. Rumps
neglected.
Dry Saltud os Bulk Meats has met
with considerable attention, mostly from
smokers, although shippers took some;
holders succeeded in establishing an ad
vance, but the extreme rates asked at the
close checked operations, market closing
quiet. Shoulders advauced to Gc. but
buycis refuse to pay this rate. Rib sides

For the information of all sufferers
from Rheumatism and Vitiated Secretions
and diseased Blood, I take .great pleasure
in recommending Rosadalis as the most
valuable and eliicient remedial agent I
have ever tried, or the effects of which I
have ever observed. Nearly three years
ago I was. attacked with Sciatic Rheu
matism, which rapidly diffused itself
through my entire .system, affecting par
ticularly the hips", back and low ol ex
tremities. For many months I could not
walk nor stand without support; ami al
though I traveled constantly over a large
district, attending to my ministerial
duties, f had to be helped in and out of
rny carriage, and assisted in dressing and
undressing myself. 1 knew no exemption
trout severe suffering for about eighteen
months. Different physician's had pre
scribed for me remedies most relied upon,
with no appreciable result. Finally one ot
them suggested the use of Rosadai.is. In
a very hort time its salutary effects were
clearly manifested. In a few months I
consids-ed myself si near well that I felt
like anew man, and discontinued the use
of thomodicine. After a few Months of
extreme and exhausting labor and expo
sure my disease revived. I resorted again
to Rosadalis, and find it is the only rem -
edy that will control my case.
ROSADALIS
is Alterative, Tonic and Diuretic, and acts
at one and the same time upon the
