If we ate not mistaken, It was Lady Mary Wortley Montague, who 01100 very pithily remarked that If she had an enemy whom she desired lo see sorely punished, she would compel him to hate somebody. The expres sion shows that she had made a diag nosis of human infirmity both skill ful and eorrcct, and that she had properly calculated the reflex notion of fooling morbidly, and ofttimes eauseleosly indulged. Animosity and ill-will usually bring little comfort to the breasts In which they rankle; for the reason, that it so often comes about that the service of hate, malice and envy is to watoh another’s suc cess, and the wages, to bo sure of it. Aguln, it must be conceded, that in many cases Ix-twocn sections and communities, us well us individuals, these animosities make themselves felt in nets; whereupon, if the aotor or actors, as Is usually the ease, ire greatly wanting In magnanimity, the complaints of the sufferers and their allegations of ruin to their social condition, and of violence to their sentiments of self-respect, only en courage the oppressor to greater wrong. Let, however, the latter be satisfied that he is kimmlf greatly Injured in ids material interests then, if avarice, us well as malice, be a quality of Ills nature, the disposi tion to (/ ratify the latter may bo to some extent in subjection to his desire to salisfii the former. Ever since the base conception, and baser enforcement of the military re construction of the Southern Stutes, it has been the custom of Southern editors ut home, and Southern orators in Congress and in Legislatures, to cry out in the agony of despair, and to assure the North of the effective ness of that punishment, which was the very end and object of those who wore using the power to Inflict It. Tliis is the very tiling many Northern people delight to hear. For this very purpose, uud to perpetuate party i>ow er, many of the mojst grievous wrongs were visited upon us. The class of men at the North of whom TUuddehs Stevens, In Ills life time, and now Jno. A. Logan or lanilaulet Williams is a representative, feel towards the South like Othello did to Cassia, when he said "Had all ills hairs been lives, my great revenge Had stomach for them all." The party with which these men affiliate have played, uud uro still playing a desperate game Indefinitely to retain political power, have exhibit ed an utter recklessness of conse quences when not fancying then*- solves to be Involved, and have enact ed and Snforecd the most Infamous and oppressive measures that dis grace the annals of civilized legisla tion. Asa general rule, all violations of tlie moral, natural and physical law, bring their own punishment, and tiring it speedily; and all measures such as those wo have recounted - measures flagrantly at war with good government, sound reason and wise inolioy- measures intended to operate alone In one section of a common country, will work out some Injury where not expected. Then money panics, dullness of trade, labor clam orous and ungovernable, New Eng land factories filled with goods await ing tlie orders of purchasers, and llnally commercial failures at the North, can but be the direct, amt necessary consequence of that South ern poverty and destitution which the legislation of the last eight, years might be expected to produce. When the Republicans of the North, to gratify the malice they felt as in dividuals, and to preserve the offices and the plunder they worshiped as a party, saw Ut to make of the igno rant, and imitative negro a voter and an office-holder, the negro, whero ever available, made of himself a gen tleman, and left, the cotton mid to bacco patch and corn field for tlie ex eroise of his newly discovered and quickly acquired fitness for other callings. Asa legislator, he and ids confrere, the carpet-bagger, have loaded the Southern States with debt, and have boon instrumental in throw ing upon the Northern market mil lions of Southern bonds, which have sadly depreciated on the hands of the purchasers. As year by year his effi ciency as a laborer is lessened, and his propensity to pilfer increased, his employer, of course, grows poorer, the land ho possesses cheaper, and with an ever diminishing ability to use his proportionate share of North ern made goods, tlie New York and Boston merchant languishes over Ids till and wonders why trade is so dis tressingly small. Wo know it is u stereotyped account for Southern financial pressure- when that account proceeds from Northern sources, that the South as a people lacks the energy that can command success. To some extent this is but too true. The main fact, however, is that by ruinous legislation the confi dence of both Northern and Europe un capital in the safety and stability of Southern investments is about de stroyed, and the South rendered poor almost beyond possibility of recuper ation, can add nothing to the fast emptying coffers of the North. When this unpromising condition is to cease, or where the causes at work will llnally land us, no man can fore cast ; but if tlie reign of hate and bit terness is to continue, the Northern people may ere long have only the empty exultation of him who, in the clash of the elements and amid the fury of a stormy sea, stood with blanched cheek and quivering heart, in the stem of the sinking ship, and witnessed the death struggles of his mortal enemy who went down with the pride-knowing thut for himself, too, there was no csoiqK) from a wa tery grave. Ol It ATI.A>TA LETTER. Special Correspondence Daily Times.] Atlanta, Juii. 23, 1875. Atlanta is a wonderful place, aud though it has already grown to mag nificent dimensions, it is still surely, steadily Increasing. The secret of its remarkable progress is told in a sin gle sentence, “unity and enterprise.” Anything calculated to redound to the glory of Atlanta, meets with a hearty support from nllquartcrs, and insteud of talking blue and wondering how long it will take Georgia to go to ruin at the present late, they meet events cheerfully, manfully, and suc cessfully. The General Assembly has not reached many results us yet, but the calendar shows a considera ble foundation for business to come, as over one hundred bills have been introduced in the Senate, and two hundred and fifty-seven in the House. A “local option” measure will prob ably become a law, which renders its provisions of interest. It provides that an election shall be held in July of this year, the voters casting their ballots “for tippling” or “against tippling.” in every county where the majority of votes cast is “against tippling” the Governor shull, by proc lamation, declare the law in full ef fect from tho publication of sneh an nouncement in any journal of the State under tho terms of the law, and no one can give, sell or furnish any sptritous liquor, or even drink on an election day except at. hfs own house or place of business without becom ing liable for a misdemeanor. Hills have also boon introduced to make the sessions begin in Novem ber, to make them biennial instead of annual, and to reduce the number of members to 88 instead of 175, as now provided. Tho last two are very good measures and should prevail, especially in event a Constitutional Convention is not called, for which purpose, however, a bill lias been in troduced. Governor Smith's first reception occurred last evening, and was a bril liant and enjoyable affair. The beautiful wreaths, flowers and other decorations, of the entire first floor of tlie Executive mansion,-were ex ceedingly handsome. Tlie supper was siqierb, embracing every delica cy of the season, spread in a manner that exhibited the greatest good taste, and with a bountiful profusion. Wines of tho richest brands enliv ened the evening, but more exhilira ting still was the loveliness of tlie assembled beauty, prominent among whom was Miss Annie Woodruff, of your city, now a guest of Mrs. Smith. IS. H. Hill delivered another of his matchless orations last night. As Mr. Hill has established ills identity us a citizen of the Ninth District, his chunees to go to Congress are im proving. Atlanta usuully strikes it right in its blind support of any and every thing that, seems to'enhance Its inter est, Kimball included, but it strikes me that limy arc making a mistake in the Air Line Railroad matter. This line extends from Atlanta to Charlotte, a distance of two hundred and sixty-five miles, and at present its general management is controlled by a Richmond interest, and the road is worked entirely towards tho ad vancement of timt city, excepting, of course, that portion in Georgia under the control of thut estimable gentle man and able nllli'O'ad man, Col. L. I’. Grant. The Air Linopayssixty five per * out. of all general exjiensos of tlie line from this city to Rich mond, yet it requires a party of five to secure emigrant tickets from Char lotte via Atlanta, while a single man can go West via Richmond at the lowest known rate. Mi. .T. H. Fisher is here asking for the road to be run In the Interest of tho road, which would be Atlanta's interest also. Atlanta seems to me to cling to the old crowd and resists Mr. Fisher. Mr. F. is a clever and elegaut Virginia gentleman, and for many years a prominent business man of New York city. He repre sents the bondholders who furnished their money at ninety-seven cents in the dollar to build the road, and should certainly have some rights. 1 tried to interview him, but he declines all newspaper notoriety, relying upon the jusnessof his cause to vindicate his application for the road. He did deny having any knowledge of an injunc tion restraining tlie present receivers from paying the employees their back pay, an act charged upon him by the lress. L. A. W. Central Railroad Earnings fou Twelve Months. The Savannah Ad eertiser has the following: Office C. R. R. & BVa Cos., of Ga.. I Savannah, Jan. 19, 1875. | To the Stoik'holders: As the last report embraced only nine months’ earnings and expenses, in conse quence of changing the termination of the fiscal year of the company from the 30(1 1 of November to the 3lst of August, the Board think it proper to give the result of operations for September, October and November, as follows: Earnings, $1,058,397 30 Expenses, 11-1,917 38 Net for three months, $613,479 92 Adding tho above to tlie earnings ami exiHUises reported for the nine months, ending August 31st, and you will have for the twelve months: Earnings. $3,159,405 19 Expenses, 1,974,917 38 Net for twelve mow., $1,184,487 81 The foregoing will enable you to compare the operations for the twelve months ending on tlie 30gi of Novem i her last, with previous years.• Respectfully submitted. Wm. M. Wadley, President, —One dav last week Mr. Mark Cor coran, of Greene county, killed six wild turkeys in two shots, four with the first barrel and two with tlie sec ond. They wore all extremely fat and in line order. General Toombs. * The Atlanta Herald lias made some sovoro strictures on General Toombs, of lute, regarding tho loun of money by him to thut journal. Abrams, of the Neics, replies to tho charges, claiming that ho, as one of t he pro prietors rff the Hendd. at. that time, knows all about the loan. The com munication Is too long to publish In full, but wo clip the following ex tracts : * * * * * * * * In the summer of 1873, It- A. Alston Informed me that ill a brief conversation tic had had with Gen. Tnombu, Unit gentle man hud expressed grout satisfaction with tlie manner in which the Herald had teen conducted, and liad avowed himself ready pi give it pecuniary aid if such was need ed. Some time after, the financial embar rassments of the paper rendered it neces sary for us to obtain some assistance, arc I I suggested to It. A. Alston that he write to Gen. Toombs reminding him of tiis offer and making application for the incited ntd. it. A. Alston declined writing himself al leging us a reason that the part he lmd taken in a certain affair some time pre vious rendered It rather a delicate matter fur him to address Gen. Toombs. I there fore resolved to write myself, and did so, although my acquaintance with General Toombs, at the time, was limited to ordi nary salutations. The reply received rather surprised me. In Ids letter. General Toombs stated that he was just on the point of starting for the Virginia .Springs, hut that, on his return tic would take pleasure in afi'ording tlie desired assistance. He further wrote that In minting the loan, he would do so solely on the faitli lie laid in my Integrity; that lie regarded Ml'. Henry W. Grady as without any conception whatever of what constitutes principle, and that Is- lmd no faith In the honor of It. A. Alston; hut from the course I hadnursued as manag ing editor of tlie Herald, tie did not ! lieve 1 was amenable to Improper influ ences, and hence he would make the loan. *##** On the evening of my last interview with General Toombs, anil in the presence of Mr. Henry XV. Grady, the General used this language: “Gentlemen," he said, “lain lending you this money solely because I admire the courage and independence you have ills-1 played in the management of the Herald. ; You have proven to the public that you | cannot In' purchased, and that you arc not! In the interest of any clique or ring, or corrupt combination. As tong as you pur sue the line of policy you have so far fol lowed. you can have the use of my money; but," he added with emphasis, “Lho day you betray me by abandoning that line of poliev, I shall exact the last dollar from you.'' ******** At any rate, a few weeks after I hail left it the entire policy of the Herald was changed. Men and measures 1 luul con demned were praised; men ami measures I had praised were condemned. The out spoken independence, the absolute free dom from outside influences, and its frank discussion of all public questions, which iiad iieen Uio characteristics of the paper, and had given It both circulation and rep utation, lmd given place to a line of policy which made it the defender nnd'apologist of corruptionists, and the toil and mouth piece of men whom I had, thank heaven, alienated. 11l fine, tlie very reasons which had injla eni'ed lint. Toombs lo lend as four thousand dollars had ceased In exist, and a line el' policy inaugurated diametrically imposed lo timt which had won Ids friendship and received his aid. ******** Learning from the. General that the money lmd not Ini'll paid and remember ing that the paper had violated its com pact, I iiocame uneasy on account, of my surety. On my return to Atlanta, 1 wroli- General Toombs, and Siam after saw him ill person, when 1 learned these facts: First that the money had not been re paid. Seeond -Timt every effort to obtain a settlement lmd been unsuccessful. Third That General Toombs could ob tain no replies to ills letters to Alston A Grady. Fourth Timt when lie eume to Atlanta they would not come near him. Fifth That, as he could not even obtain respectful treatment from them, lie had instituted legal proceedings to recover ids money. As 1 was personally ootieerin <1 in the matter, lat once interested myself. 1 saw It. A. Alston and urged Idm to make some settlement. He replied that if General Toombs was not satisfied with ttie prope sition made to him, he could do as lie phased. That proposition was, 1 believe, timt General Lx,nibs should cancel tlie inert gage and take all interest In tlie paper, it was peremptorily declined. ****** ** I desire it understood that tlie loan mad*' by General Toombs to us was only paid by General Toombs obtaining another ioaii for R. A. Alston. Even alter tlie cheek was sent to General Toombs, he told me tiiat lie would willingly pay 81,000 to be assured that tile llank of Washington would ever get paid; timt if the bank was not paid by R. A. Alston lie was in honor bound to protect it from loss, in fine, lie jmumeni lo him was no payment at all. It was stated to me yesterday timt tbe bank has been paid. If so, it "lias been paid quite recently. To sum up tho whole of a rather long story, the facts arc these: First. General ToomlM lent me and mv partners $4,000 because he approved the course we liail pursued, telling us frankly that while he hail no favors to ask of us. if wo abandoned that course lie would abandon us. (Second- The paper did abandon tlml course and began abusing General Toombs, who had Uuuiril it $4,000. Third General Toombs demanded his money, hut could not get it. Fourth -General Toombs, after months of delay and putting off, rather than de stroy the paper, generously obtained a loan for R. A. Alston to enable him te pnv the debt, F'iftli In return for this double obliga tion tho Herald abuses Goti. Toombs, and calls him n Sliylock, Sudi are the facts of tin- ease. lam no champion of Gen. Toombs lie docs not need a champion. I am merely a man grateful to him for the kindness lie lias shown me and tlie obligation lie has plan'd me under, and this gratitude prompts me to let the truth tic made known. That the Herald lmd acted treacherously toward Gen. Toombs is undeniable; that he hail acted in a princely manner toward it is also true. When with a word lie could have destroyed it, lie generously helped them to pay himself. Was tills collecting money like‘a Shyloek* Did Slivtoek carry Antonio to another capitalist and negotiate a ham for him, so us to enable Antonio to pay him? Wien all the facts in the case arc consid ered. I think that the public will decide that Gon. Toombs acted throughout in t he most generous manner, and they will properly appreoiiite tlie ingratitude embodied In ii column of abuse of tlie man whose friend ship they had betrayed after he had given them substantial evidence id it, and also, even after they had returned his kin*ln*'.is witli abuse, not only withheld the bios Unit would have annihilated them, but ac tually added to the obligation, and pre served them, so that, viper-like, they can strike at him now. a* —The following city officers for West Point were elected last week Mayor, W.
