A hthanueb walking past the cemetery- like wall that surrounds lliu Court-house | yard askod one of our people, “la this whoro tho rude for of at hers of your hamlet sleep “No," was tho answer, “that is wkero they lie.” Would it not bo a good idou for those people who oppose tho enterprise to aid tho Library to raise n collection in their churches for it? Tho Library is not sec- tarian. It will do good to all, arul will bo only second in it* moral influence to tho church. Como in and help us. Wo are all working for tho sumo end by different m cans. The opponents of an increase of tho currency aro now inoro hopeful of a veto by President Grant—with what reason remains to be soon. Thoy say that tho “inflationists" in the Senato limited tho increase to #44,000,000, in their votes upon amondmonts, on Thursday last, be cause thoy feared a veto if they went further—not bocauso that was all tho incroAso they desired. Wo shall soon sue. The Library is in dobt noarly four hun dred dollars. Was it right for tho City Council to voto flvo hundred dollnrs of tho city money for an “agricultural ball?" We think it was, and wo hear no objec tions. Why thou should it be wrong to aid tho Library by a bull ? Tho objec tions should have been urged when tho whole people wore called to pay, and not now, when to help in any form is left to tho option of tho citizen. Dispatches from Byron, Texns, report the hanging of seven negroes, who had brutally assaulted a Mr. Loak, leaving him dead, ns thoy thought, and thon violated his wife. Tho citi/.ons took two of them from tho jail at Bryan and huug them, and hung tho others as soon as thoy enught them. It is yet uncertain whether Mr. Leak will rocovor. It is believed that the seven negroos hung aro all that were engaged in tho outrage. The Convention of tho Georgia Medi cal t Sooioty, at Thomasvillo, was more fully attended on Thursday. The follow ing officers f6r tho ensuing your were elected: President,Dr. DeBnssuro Ford,of Augusta; Vico Presidents, 1st, Dr. Roddy, of Forsyth; lid, Dr. John M. During, of Atlanta; Heorotary, Dr. J. T. Johnson, of Atlanta; Treasurer, Dr. O’Dauiol, of Twiggs. The eitizons of Thomasvillo ex tended much hospitality to tho members of tho Hociety. A young man named Ooorgo Falk, in Rultinioro, took threo ounces of lauda num and flvo grains of morphia, with the intention of committing suicide. A phy sician ordered that ho ho made to walk rapidly until tho effects of the poison should bo overcome. His father walked with him until exhausted, aud thon po licemen had to take him in hand by turns, until lialmd walked fifteen hours. It was with groat difficulty that ho could be kept on his feet, liis life was saved. What would you think of tho man who should say to tho agent of a railroad at tho ticket offloo, “I want to go to Savan nah. I am a mail of wealth ; always set tle my hills, and 1 will pay at the other end of the road?" Yot it is just as rea sonable to Hay to a publisher, “Send mo your paper for six months or n yoar, and I will pay when you got through. You know I am worth it." A few mon of means object to paying for our paper in advauae; hut they are tho very men wo cutoff without a compunction. Wo are always ready to wait for a poor man, who may have been out of work, but we pro pose to extend no favors to any muu sim ply because he has money. “inlla- Tiik Now York JU raid says that lion menus war, just as slavery meant war all tho tirno from IS40 to J8G0.’’ From this wo understand thot tho Now Eugluud States,assisted by New York,will have a limitation of tho currency to suit Hhoir iutorosts or financial notions,or thoy will wage a sectional agitation just as thoy did against slavery. Tho JJeraltl should remember that thoy never over throw slavory until they obtained tho co- opornliou of tho Wost, and ou tho curren cy issuo tho West is ns clamorous for “iu- llutiou" cs tlio South, if not more so. Oil this currency question there can bo no doubt as to which is tho “sectional" and which the “national" side. Mu. Claooett, a member of tho “Log- islaturo" of tho District of Columbia, was before tho Congressional Commit too in vestigating tho affairs of that District, on Wednesday, aud during his examination ho disclosed his rulo of votiug, * liioh is at least conservative if not always pro gressive. Ho said that ho found that one man was running tho concern, preparing »!1 tho bills, and the others voting for thuui, aud that in his bewilderment ho determined to voto “no" upon everything, and did so voto all tho time, lie said that tho idea was suggostid to him by a stranger from Massachusetts, and that he thought it would bo a pretty safe rule for members of Congress to follow. In tho case before tho United States Circuit Court for Louisiana, in which Mucaulev, of Now York, aud Stern Pros., of England, brought suit against certain State olficeis of Louisiana to prevent tho execution of tho l'uudiug law of that State (which virtually repudiated a por tion of the debt due the plaintiffs'. the Court ruled that tho officers of a State could not thus be brought before the United States Courts. Previous decisions had determined that a State could not fbo sued in tho Federal Courts. Judge Woods said that “though tho court might enjoin a State officer from doing injury to third persons under An unconstitutional State law, a suit against a State officer to enforce a contract of State was either n suit against the State, which could not be eutertained, or a suit against nominal parties without iuterest, and should bo dismissed." KRUOION ' Perhaps there are no two reasoning mon in the world who quite agree in tho minute tonots of their belief, and whoso faith i:; of equal strongth os to the Barno objects. Nay, we question if any two men ever lived who entertained tho same conception of a God. Tho religion of any man is to himself a thousand times hotter than the faith of nuothor mon, and m belief, if conscientiously follow ed, is safer to dio in than tho creed which through lifo he has followed by forca of circumstances and in ’ opposition to his will. Christianity has been retarded more by those claiming to bo its strictest advocates, than by all tbo power of Jew, Pagan aud Infidel combined. Tho amount of time, money, onorgy, talent and per sistency deemed necessary for the defense of creeds, would hove, if properly ap plied, carried religion into tho darkest and farthest corners of the earth. Indoed, thoro is moro antagonism to-day between tho sectarian chnrchos than there is be tween Mahommodauism and Christianity, and lovely oh it may bo for brothers to dwell together in peace, wo fear it exists more in tho presumption than (he prac tice. Imagine a young man well educated, reasoning, upright, and believing in the vital necessity of religion, yet undecided as to the form ho shall adopt, starting out to seek light among tho leadeia of tho creeds. Wo can itungiuo such a man, for there nro thousands of them. In such a pursuit ho will visit the Catholic, Episco palian, high aud low, Methodist, of all shades, Presbyterians of three kinds, baptists, dost, open uud hardwired, so on to tho end. . The young man will be presented with tho chaits of faith in which tho different routes to tho Great Port are mappod out. lie wdi bo compelled to roud libraries of rtamning and personal debate* in defense of each chart, and be utterly confused °s ho tries to reconcile tho raot'al standards (a„h boa set up soutial to salvation, absolutely nocossary in tho belief of men whose faith is chain cd to a creed, when the Great Teacher’s plan of redemption is so pluin that “the wayfaring muu, though a fool, need not err therein." Tho young man will be amazed at tho want of charity evident the productions of these men, and utterly confused, ho may ask himsolf, “Aud if this loving God with your whole boart and your neighbor us yourself ?" Ten tc one but ho turns to tho treacherous Holds of reason, whoro thoro is charity at least, and is lost in the quagmires where men try to fiud a rood without the light of faith. Wo aro lud to make these romarks by tho decided opposition manifested by cer tain of our churches to curtain kinds of amusements. No doubt there nro good grounds for tho reasoning of olorgy who nro opposed to tlioatros, operas, halls, dancing, and kindred amusements. They firmly believe their opposition is for good, aud we have a groat respect for (heir opinions, and write with no view to change them—for that would bo wrong— but rather to give our own reasons for ad vocating certain amusements that people will pursue in spite of nil tho teachings of the churches ; and when this is done it certainly weakens tho faith and respect of tho member, and malms him cither a robe! to his ostensible creed, or a hypo- crito in violating it. Wo nro well aware that wicked peoplo dance and go to thea tres, but whether it is wiokod to do so is (ho question. If theatres and dancing tend to immorality, wobcliovo they should bo opposed ; but in a very extensive expe rience wo havo uoticod that both nro pat ronized by people of tho most culture, morality, and social standing, members of church, who would at ouco revolt ngniust tho hmuau dictum that deprived them ou the one baud from histrionic culture, and ou tho other from an amuse- mont that through all ages has boon fol lowed, and under tho old dispensation made oven ft religious ceremony. Homo one asked tho grentest preacher in AmoricA, “If it was wrong to dance?’’ ilo replied, “It is wicked when it is wick ed, and not wicked when it is not wicked. In itself it lias no moro moral character than walking, wrostling or rowing. Bad company, untimely hours, evil dances, mny make tho exercise evil; good com pany, wholesome hours and homo influ ences may mnko it a very great benefit." Now, no father, mother, brother, sister or sweetheart would for a moment placo iheir loved ones in tho way of tempta tion : and surely the experionee of tlioir own youth, and the experience of genera tions, would provent good men from patronizing the theatre or tho iuuooent danco if it workod harm to thoso for whoso education and future they nro re- sponsible to thoir God and their country. Personally, wo think u danco more inno cent than tho kissing games in which non- dancers who meot social-y uro apt to in dulge. There is niuoh opposition to tho ball for the beuoflt of the Library by tho touchers who think dancing wrong. We rospect thoir opinions, and would not even argue the good object of tho ball—indeed, wo do not believe in arguing whon o U r be liefs clash. We hope, however, that tho Library Ball will bo n success, aud that while it aff ords innocent niuusomeut in tho present, it will tend to build up on in stituticu that will be i. credit to our city, mid add to tho cu’taro and consequent morality of our people. able consideration of the scheme tho Atlantic. Many details of the prise are also to be agreed upon. It is much to be hoped that this Con vention will bo well attended, and that an amount of business will bo promised which will induce the establishment of the lino as quickly as possiblo. The de sire is to have tho steamers running regu larly as soon ns tho next cotton crop com mences to come in. As tbo Grangers aro understood to be operating for the same AMUSEMENTS. REA!.

Brown, Mayor Spencer, nud the President of tho Atlanta Chamber of Commerce, havo called a con- vontiou of l'resideuts of Uailronds, May ors of cities, Presidents of Boards of Trade, Ac., to assemble in Atlanta on the first Tuesday iu May, to aid iu establishment of tho “Liverpool, Sav lull and (treat Western Transportation Line." It, will bo remembered that Col. Nelqon Tift last year visited many cities iu the .South and West in the inter, eat of this lino and reported a general disposition to co-operate heartily in its establishment Tho circular above al luded to states that Col. Tift will leave for Europe about tho last of May. and it is desirable that he should be able to take with him such data os will secure a l'avor- TUE OTHER SIDE. Wo selected, Saturday, somo choice passages from the New Y’ork Herald, to show tho fooling with which Wall street opposes tho proposed increase of the National currency. Counter blasts from the Western press show that that section espouses the other uido with equal ardor aud determination. It is evidently re garded as a conflict of interests, nud t^ie struggle will bo maiutniaod with all the resolution that usually marks such con- j flicts. Tho Cincinnati Gazette says that tho j East is completely under tho coutrol of tho bankers and bondholders, whose de sire it is to make money scarce and inter est high ; while tho West and South want rnonoy cheap and interest low. It says that political parties aro forming upon this issue. “Those who spunk for the interests of Wall street cannot politically fraternizo with us, no matter by what uacue they choose to cull themselves. To the South aud West thoy nro equally ene mies, whether thoy torui themselves Dem ocrats or Kopuhlicaus. If tho monoy sharks of the East do not yield on this question, it is, like Aaron’s rod, bound to swallow up all others, and upon it they will ho overwhelmed. Wo feel like thanking God that by tbo census of 1370 tho political power of tho Union passed from the East ucross tbo Alleghenies to the West, never to return through all tho cycle of ages. With tho South us our natural ally, wo are two to ouo iu the House ovor the East. We can spare many Wostern and Southern ‘dough faces,' and yet win." In response to tho violent tone of eoiuo of tho Eastern press, tho Gazette says: “Tho language indulged in by thoir or gans shows how badly they have been hurt. It is a mingled groan of pain and an excoodingly vituperative yoll against the people’s Itepreientatives, who have at lost votod that somo stop ought to bo put to their public aud private robbory of the debtor class of society." Replying partic ularly to tho New York World, which had called the vote of the Seuato “a voto of folly and disaster, disgracing oven the ig norance and cowardice of tho 43d Con gress,” tho Gazette says: “The idea of n journal, which represents nothing but thieves and stock-jobbers of Wull street, talking iu that manner about tho wishes of four-fifths of tho peoplo is really insuf ferable." To the Now York press generally, it de fiantly answers: “Wo servo upon them duo uotico thnt thoy have only got the first installment. If they won't have more greenbacks they will havo to take the free bankiug law, which will prick them iu n tender point, aud put an end to an odious monopoly, from which thoy havo dorivod such immense profits. You mny, Messrs. Tribune, Times and World, give out your loudest thunders nud issuo your bulls of excounnuuication, but thoy aro ns barmloss ns tho rubbing together of tho dried poas, which aro supposed to represent the nntural elemental war in tho theatrical drama. Tho days of tho domi nation of tho money clampers and thioves of Wall street aro drawing to a close. They will not bo permitted horouf- ter to havo the solo voico iu the direction of tho financial policy of tho country." Such interchanges of taunt and throat show’ that tho sectional antagonisms aroused by this question aro likely to break through party linos, just as tho votes in Congress show a disregard of them ; and that while an Eastern Con gressman who favors expunsioti stands a vory poor show of re-election, a Western or Bouthoru man opposing it stands an equally slim chanco of satisfying his con stituents. Tho sentiment of tho opposing sections is represented by their respective Congressmen, and unless somo now influ ence is brought to bear tho contest would seem to bs virtually decided iu favor of the South and West. But if money is to be used to iufiuence votes, the advantage will bo one side of tho East, and this, wo apprehend, is a contingency yet to be dreaded.
