For a long time the irregularity of mail communication between Savannah and New York, and points intermediate beyond Au gusta, have been a crying evil. We have thoroughly investigated tho whole matter, so far as our relations have afforded oppor tunity, and have only been able to discover that the fault 13 not in this office or this side of Augusta. We can lind no instance of negligence or misconduct among the employees of the Savannah office, or any oi the route agents who report here. In fact, our inquiries everywhere have resulted to their credit. By the exertions of Col, T. P. Robb, our worthy Postmaster, Special Agent Harrison Reed, whose district comprises Florida and Alabama, was a short time since especially detailed to investigate the irregularities be tween here and New York. He has just con cluded his tour, and has paid careful atten tion to the workings of the mail system on every important part of the route. He has made a full report to the Post Office Department, embracing many import ant suggestions, several of which will doubt less be adopted, to the great adyantage of business men and people generally South. We have not the data or the disposition to publish the full results of the trip, hut we judge that although they exhibit no especial fraud or deliberate negligence, they will in crease the activity of some special mail agents, and the carefulness of several route agents. Everybody claims full ex emption from blame, but that some body, officially employed, is seriously at fault, is shown by the fact that we some times get three days’ New York Heralds and Philadelphia Ages and Washington papers in one batch, aud that the New York Hotel, and many subscribers North, get the News and Herald, when they get it at all, in in stalments that cover four or live days’ issue, We at first suspected the fault might be in this vicinity. We are sure now that it is not. We hope Special Agent Reed’s labors will result in a great improvement. A OLIMVsE OK TIIE FUTURE. The Pacitie Railroad, now progressing rapidly to completion, with some prospect of being open lor travel in 1870, will be the great highway of the world. Stretching with ita eastern connections across the Con tinent from New York to San Francisco, a distance of 2,263 miles, it will afford the shortest and most comfortable route from England to China. The traveller from Lou don to Hong Kong will run up by rail to Liverpool, and take the steamer, which will land him at New York, 3,150 miles to the westward, within eleven days of the time he left home. Theuce across the country he will fly in the cars in six days to the Golden Gate, where another steamer will be in wait ing to carry him the remaining 4,500 miles in twenty-three days. The whole trip will occupy only forty days, fifteen less than the shortest time ever made by the Mediterra nean or Red Sea route. There will be but two changes, the whole course will be through the healthiest aDd pleasantest region in the world, and the land transit will be a grateful relief to the monotony of the ocean trip. These great advantages will eventually se cure to the Pacific Railroad the whole trade of Eastern Asia, and make New York and San Francisco its principal seats. The New York Tribune is making frantic appeals to its Radical friends to send in their names as subscribers for Radical jour nals, and especially for tire Tribune. It ex hausts its arguments upon the importance of the wide circulation of the organs of Radi calism, and insists that, unless the country is flooded with them, the next Presidential election will result in a Radical defeat. It says that “the Republicans owe their victo ries of IHBC primarily to Mayor Monroe and his subordinate Thugs in New Orleans.” Ia other words, that the disturbances in New Orleans, gotten up by the Radicals them selves, furnished the ground-work and foun dation for the stream of falsehoods with which the Radical press deceived the people in regard to the condition of public senti ment in the South. The idea now is to give the Radical journals such a circulation as will place their falsehoods in ev.ery nook and corner of the land, and delude and humbug the people as they have done heretofore. But it will not do. lire people are opening their eyes and cannot much longer be de ceived. They are beginning to comprehend the sophistry with which they have been misled, and are repudiating thei r false guides. It is Worthy of note that, in the campaigns wlrioh have just closed in Pennsylvania and Ohio, the Democratic party was stigmatized by its enemies as a party of “rebels” and “secessionists,” just as the Southern people have been stigmatized. By their votes, the people of those States, as our own people had done, showed the estimation in which they hold all such malicious but silly accu sations. The slanders are treated with con tempt, and the slanderers repudiated. Catching at Straws.— The Cincinnati En quirer says: “The ouly reason which the Radicals give that they will ever recover their ascendancy again in Ohio is, that they did so in 18(13, after being beaten in 1862. Ihey torgel that they were restored then by the bayonet, by irauduleut army votes, and by military tyranny. These aids they are not likely to have next year.” [communicated.! Loyal Botul-llolilers anil One-Armed Soldiers. At the beginning of the late war, when the able-bodied men were called upon to abandon their farms and workshops and en ter the “Union army” to put down the re bellion, maintain the union of the States, and the Constitution of the United Sta'es as it came from the hands of our revolutionary fathers, a young man in the neighborhood of Cleveland, Ohio, enlisted inthe Union army- This young mim had five hundred dollars in gold coin, which lie placed in ihe hands of a banker, a native of New England, for safe keeping until he should return home horn Ihe war, for which the banker gave a writ ten obligation reciting that he had received the sum of live hundred dollars in gold coin, and obligating himself to return the same iu gold coin. The Government called upon the capital ists lor the loan of money to carry on the war, but the capitalists refused to lend. The Government was therefore forced to is sue legal-tender notes, commonly called ‘‘greenbacks,” to purchase supplies for the soldiers in the field. Finding that these notes rapidly depreciated iu value, notwithstanding they were made a legal-tender in payment ol debts, the Government proposed to exchange six per cent, bonds for greenbacks but the hankers aud capitalists refused to make the exchange because the bonds were subject to taxation, like other property. The Government then proposed to m cbana» Hre-twenty bonds, which should be exempt from taxation, for greenbacks at par. At this .time one dollar in gold would buy two dollars and eighty-live cents in green backs, and the Cleveland banker purchased fourteen hundred arid twentv-flve dollars in greenbacks with the young soldier’s live hundred dollars in gold, which he exchanged for five-twenty bonds, the interest payable iu gold, aud the principal in greenbacks, five years atier date. These bonds the banker deposited in the Treasury of the United States, for which he received in exchange fourteen hundred dollars iu National bank notes, which he loaned at six per cent, in terest. By this financial manceuver he received sev enty-two dollars aud eighty cents per annum in gold from the Government,and eighty-four dollars per annum from his nank customers, making one hundred and fifty-six dollars aud eighty ceDts per annum for the use of the soldier’s five hundred dollars in gold. The soldier having been honorably discharged from the army, minus his right arm, be went to this loyal banker, aud demanded bis gold, in accordance with the w> ,; Ueu con tract, but the loyal banker refused lo return the gold, aud proposed to pay him dollar for dollar in greenbacks. The young soldier then brought suit on the written contract for the payment of the gold but, after the suit had been pending for one year aud a half, a loyal court decided that greenbacks were a legal tender ; so tlie result was, that after the loyal banker had had the soldier’s gold for five years, and had received seven hundred aud eighty four dollars for interest thereon, the poor soldier was compelled by the decision of a loyal court to take five hun dred dollars, in greenbacks, worth only three hundred and forty seven dollars iu gold, for his five hundred dollars in gold; and was, moreover, denounced as a copper head and a traitor for insisting upou pay ment in gold. This decision covered tho case of thou sands of soldiers, laboring men and pro ducers in the State of Ohio, who had freely shed their blood and expended their money In m.intet* *Td. ~C <Jj. <?JljtitllUtion, which, among other things, provides that no laws invalidating contracts shall be passed, aud when they found that loyal courts were prepared to disregard this plain provision of the Constitution, they came to the con clusion that if greenbacks were good enough for one armed soldiers they were good enough for loyal bondholders who purchased their bonds for thirty-five cents on the dol lar. They therefore proposed to pay these bonds in greenbacks as fast as they full due, aud to abolish the National Banks, and suh si itute greenbacks for National bank notes: For this proposition they were denonced by the Radicals and loyal bond-holders, as copperheads and traitors, and the issue was thus made up. Greenbacks for one-armed soldiers, laboring men and producers, and gold for lordly bond-holders, against one currency for wounded soldiers, producers, bankers and bond holders —aud the people of the State decided the question at the bal lot bqx on the secoud Tuesday of the pre sent month. S. 11. N- THE GREAT SWINDLE. Even taking the laws of Congress as a guide, the registration in the Southern States has been a gigantic swindle. Every possible ditticulty was thrown in the way of white men, but negroes between the ages of sixteen and one hundred were everywhere received with open arms. Two hundred Africans who came over but recently in the Wan derer, and cannot speak the English lan guage, were registered iu Alabama. Ac cording to the registry in that Stale the col ored population is now ti n per cent, larger than it was in 1800, although a number of the northern tier of counties lost nearly all their negroes by the war, and by emigration to Brewulow’s kingdom, and notwithstand ing that numbers of blacks have lately left Alabama for ihc Mississippi Valley. The impudence of asserting that the negro popu lation of Alabama is larger now than before the war, has hardly a parallel, even in ti e hintory of Radicalism. Tbe same swindle has been perpetrated in all the Southern States. To suppose that it could last, at,d form the basis of our future politics, would be to admit that there was no difference be tween the plainest right and the most flagrant and indecent wrong. Handsomely Done. Editorial quarrels always look badly to the public eye, and are not very creditable to the profession. VVe are gratified, therefore, to see the following card in the Atlanta In telligencer of yesterday : A CARD. At the request of mutual friends, the undersigned Hereby apologize fur the pub lication, and disclaim llie endorsement of certain selected urlicies and communications that have appeared in our respective jour nals impugning tbe personal character ol each other. Whatever charges or imputa tions against each other that may have been made through our editorial columns, are also withdrawn. Jahed Irwin Whitaker. W. L, Scruggs. Burke's Weekly for Boys and Girls.— We have received from the publishers, J. W. Burke & Cos., Second street, Macon, Ga., the first quarterly part of this magazine. It is one oi the most interesting juvenile week lies published, aud its typographical appear ance is especially creditable. Order4U. —The Cincinnati Enquirer says: “There is some prospect that Pope’s order, forbidding the publication of advertisements in Conservative papers, .will be revoked by tbe President, to that the people of Georgia aud Alabama can b j tow ihtir patronage upon papers of their choice.” THE REPUBLICAN PLATFORM IN j VIRGINIA. Hunnicutt, the leader of the Radical party in Virginia, was nominated iu Richmond, a few days since, for the State Convention. He made the following speech on the occasion of his nomination, iu which he gives the platform of his party: Fello.w-citizens —I stand before you us a delegate to the most important convention and legislative body that ever met in this State. lam gratified with the peace and harmony that has pervaded this assemblage. [A good joke—Reporter] and thank you for the Honor you have conferred upou me. 1 hope—certainly intend—that my course in the Convention, if elected, shall be like it has been iu the past—always doing all for the benefit of the white aud black alike. 1 would rather again subject myself to all the odium, slanders, and curses which have been heaped upon me than to become a member of the Convention. But the Republicans of Virginia have always looked up to me for advice and counsel iu days gone by, and 1 will not lorsake them iu this crisis. If 1 refuse to become a candidate the rebels and Republicans would say I’d gone back upon my friends. We Republicans are now in one barque, and it one of us go down, all must go together, and therefore it behoves us to stick oy one another. My friends, you must beware of many white men who come to you with fair pro mises. They aie two-faced. After they had accomplished their vile purposes by making tools of you they' will lorsake you. L respect Henry A. Wise because he is not two-faced. He has the boldness and manli ness to proclaim his principles and stand by thorn. I repeat, 1 respect him, but ido not respect his principles. It is proper that I should give my plat foim. and it is the same one I had in 18(*h, when I first came to Richmond. It is “Un conditional preservation of the Onion—Re publican principles—equal rights 1 r white and black, and free education.” Congres has given universal suffrage, and’tis belter than the first idea ol suffrage, which should allow a vote to each man who owned five hundred acres of laud and paid tuxes on $.5(10 of perishable property. If this had h-ea adopted by Congress, about nine hun dred and ninety-nine of every thousand ne groes, and almost the same proportion of white persons in l his Stale, would have been cutoff from tlie blessed privilege of voting. Ibis is not my way of thinking; aud I shall advocate in the Convention the broad plat form of “universal manhood suffrage.” Free education I shall also urge Free schools and money to start them we must have. The properly of this city and of the Suite must be taxed to keep up the schools. Free schools will help the property-holders. Northern capital will then come here. If the rebels don’t like the schools, they needn’t send their children. If they do send them, aud they abuse the children of the “Union men,” they will be whipped ; and if that doesn’t make them behave themselves, they will be driven away. Republicans have the day now ; but I’m in favor oi treating rebels kindly. I’d not do the least thing that would cause them to feel one bit worse than they do now. fCries of “Dry do feel berry bad.”] Now, my hearers, who should be disfran chised. [Cries of “Now lie’s coming to it; dal’s it.”] I ll tell you wlmt class I shall urge to be disfranchised. First. The leading rebel editors of Virginia. These meu com menced and kept up the war—forced hus bands aud sous into it by the sensation lies published iu their papers, aud they have kept Virginia out of the Union to ibis day. They are (lie Dispatches, Exuminers and Whigs. [A voice: “The last-named is a Republican paper.] Yes, u Re-pub-li cun pu-per, und God save the mark! The Times has gone under, and I hope other p ipers will soon follow its example. [A voice: “Hosv about the Southern Opinion?”] Oh, theSouth-ern O-piu-ion is so small an affair that I didn’t think about it/ The next to be disfranchised are the minis ters. If Dr. Burrows and others would stay out of tlie theuire and remain iu the pulpit and closet, and not meddle with politics, we would let them go. Bat they must behave themselves. 1 mean that the ministers aud editors, politically, are bad, not morally. I would not attack their morals. No gentleman would do that. lam iu lavor ol allowing a vote to those poor white men who were forced into the army at the point of the bayonet, it they repent; but they must show go id signs til repentance. Tlw.wiallliy merobuilM WE®, during the war, ran the blockade, or em ployed others to do it, should be disfran chised. They did not fight, it Is true, but they encouraged and drove others to do it, and then imposed upon ihe wives and chil dren of ttiose who louglit. They bought goods cheap and sold them for five prices—sold whiskey for ten dollars a drink that would have maddened demons had they drank it. Let them, as wed as the “bomb-proofs" be disfranchised; also, over seers. All of them were but time-servers, and hunted down and exposed Union meu. There are many fanners who were forced to contribute supplies to the rebel aimy. They should be allowed to come into the Union, for they have repented. Many of them have said so to me. Let them vote next time. Thirty thousand persons in Virginia ought to be disfrauchi ed, and will be it they re ceive justice. [A voice—“ What are you going to do with rebels that have repeated?’’] Oh, I’ll vole on ilie first day of ibe Conven tion 10 enfranchise them. Another voice— “ How long must Ihey repent :’] In the words of the prophet, “Oh Lord, how long?” I say, uulil they repent in sack cloth and ashes. Will that be long enough? [Cries of “Yes; dat’s so.”] THE CODE. [From the Macon Telegraph.l They have a queer way ot doing things iu Atlanta and thereabouts. Some of the papers of that city contain a correspondence that led to.the recent duel near Augusta, and we con fess there is a novelty hi tile whole affair, ft appears that Mr. Farrow, considering him self aggrieved by an article iu the Rome Commercial, called on the proprietor of that journal, who explained, aud Mr. F. returned to Atlanta satisfied. S tme days thereafter, the editor of the Commercial, Mr. M. A. Ne vin, wrote Mr. Farrow, avowing the author ship of the language complained of, reit erating it, demanding that he be con sidered the aggressor, and expressing his willingness to respond to any demand for satisfaction that Mr. F. migut make upon him. Mr. F. replied, declining to challenge Mr. N. on the ground that the latter was a ctipple, having lost a leg. The remarkable part of it is, lhat at this stage of the quar rel, Col. O’Connor, the friend of Me. N. substituted himself for his principal and challenges Farrow. F. accepted, aud the parties met at Baud Bar Ferry, uear Au gusta, exchanged shots, aud then made friends. It is very clear that Farrow struck a crowd some r ns of whom he had to tight, noUns vo/ens. Mitel,el cm **i>yoi . W e have noticed the strange fact that what purported to be Mr. Pryor’s indignaut denial of radical proclivities has elicited from the republican press warm expressions of ap proval. Here is what John Miichel, a con servative, says of the letter and the writer: “A ftiand lias sent us a copy of a letter written by Mr. Roger A. Pryor 10 the Rich mond Whig, aud asks us to reproduce it. Wo should do so with pleasure, as it is well wiitten, like everything else penued by Mr. Pryor, but we protest that we cannot find anything in it. Mr. Pryor advises his friends at the Mouth to ‘accept the situation’ (a tire some phrase)—well, they do already accept the situation: they are doing nothing, that we know of, to reverse the judgment of the war; what does Mr. Pryor want ?” About as Mean as They Make ’em. —Not many yeuts since, in West Plymouth, (N. H.) it used to be the custom lor the school master to “board ’round” among the families ol his pupils, so as to save expense. Some times, of course, the days didn’t come out quite even—there would lie eight andont-balf days at one house and nine at another. One man, who was notorious for his im anness, just before the school master began his din uer, said to him: “Mr. ,” said he, “I suppose, by rights, that your time is just about half way through this dinner. That’s as near as 1 kin make it, and I’ve calculated pretty close. But 1 don’t wish to be small about it, and you kin eat just about as much as you would do for ordinary.” STORE FOR REN f.

Subsequently violent speeches were made by Bowen, Wright, supported by Pillsbery and McKey, which frightened the delegates from the interior from their posi tion, and a reconsideration was thereupon ordered, resulting in the defeat of the reso lutions Epping abandoned the Convention in disgust, satisfied that its schemes were of the vilest character, uulit to be supported by auy respectable white or colored man.
