The leaders of the Radical party
have assembled In Washington to try
to rosurroct their dying party. They
have finally concluded that its life is
fast ebbing away, and that it can only
bo resuscitated by a vigorous prose
cution of the war of hate against the
South.
The proposition now flashed over
the wires is to place the South under
military rule, overthrow State gov
ernments, and place provisional Gov
ernors at the head of each State.
They look in every direction for a
pretext, but as yet have been unable
to definitely fix upon a sufficient one.
The most feasible pretext for seizing
the State governments is found in the
slanders upon the South, told by un
scrupulous men, and fanned into a
blazo by the invectives of Logan,
Pease & Cos. The dispatch of Sheridan
relating that Louisiana is in a state
of rebellion, and that the atmosphere
is impregnated with crime, is used by
Logan as sufficient provocation for
the Government to establish drum
head courts in that State. Pease, the
carpet-bagger from Mississippi, tells
the liarty that from statistics gather
ed on the Georgia and Alabama bor
der, there is uo safety among us,
and that murderers throng our
country. He read an article written
from this section by a correspond
ent of the New York Times in sub
stantiation of tits position. To per
petuate their party in power they will
stoop to any sort of dinning and
meanness. They only await the op
portunity to place us under military
rule, and trusting that our manhood
will resent the outrage, and then they
can cry out “rebellion in the South,”
and thus bring back to their colors
the unthinking masses at the North.
Everything that is said or written
from hero, that is at all slanderous or
untrue, Is taken up by those men
and used against us. Already they
linvo special correspondents s“rit
South to work tip the outrages and
villify the i>eoplo. Wo should indeed
bo cautious and on the alert, to
guard against the class of men who
visit us, and profess friendship, and
then leave with n slander upon their
lips, rea<ly to revive it in any style to
their vile and unprincipled masters.
If tlie Administration attempts such
a thing, they must do it in the face
of a complete exposure of the villiany
of Sheridan, Logan and others,
whose only object in life is to keep
alive and glowing the hated persecu
tion against the South.
Some think that it will culminate
in a general seizure of the State gov
ernments at the South. There is
some reason for suehagraveopinion,
for already has Grant asked for an
appropriation to the army for two
years, while it Is a fact that never be
fore In the history of the government
has such an appropriation been asked
for more than one year. With an ar
my fully equipped and an appropria
tion in hand to maintain that army
for two years, there is no telling what
Grant would not aspire to. We feel
confident that Congress will not
plaoo so much power in the hands of
the Administration with such a
threatening aspect before them, and
then the West will not submit to such
a course, for it might come their turn
next.
We believe in the South and her
people speaking their honest senti
ments, lot the result be what it may,
but we think they should take care
they are not misrepresented or mis
understood, and all theories of blood,
murder, and insufficiency of our laws
only serves to outrage us, and
strengthen our enemies in Washing
ton.

A New Yoiik paper notices the in
troduction into Wall street of a now
method of gambling in stocks, spe
cially adapted to the use of persons
of small means and less wisdom.
One per cent, is now the modest sum
on the par value of a stock that is re
quired to be deposited with a broker,
as a guarantee of margin, instead of
at least ton per cent., which was for
merly demanded. On the old plan
the gambler risked the entire value
of tho stock involved in his opera
tions, but on the new one he can lose
only the little sum he pays down.
The system Is simple and easy to
learn, the editor says, and promises
to become as popular as faro or keno.
Several brokers have issued little
pamphlets describing tlie nature and
advantages of this new invention.
The possibility of loss in doing busi
ness with them is strenuously denied,
while the certainty of immense
profits is portrayed iu glowing colors.
-
- New York Herald thus remarks
on tho good Gou. Grant can do the
country: “Since the day when Fort
Donelson surrendered General Grant
has done the country much good ser
vice ; but it is not an exaggeration to
say that in all his remarkable career
he never had an opportunity to bene
fit it so greatly as lie could do now by
resigning tho Presidential office; and
probably it would be impossible for
him to do any other act or take any
other step whatever, which would
meet with sueli almost universal ac
ceptance and favor from I lie public.'’

—The little tariff bill, which was rush
ed through the House iu spite of the
earnest opposition of tho Democrats,
is drawn entirely in the interest of
the manufacturers and the money
power. It provides for no increase of
tlie revenue; but the tax on gold sales
bv brokers, which would have yield
ed $8,000,000 i>er annum, was knocked
out so as to save rich men and spec
ulators from taxation, while addition
al burdens was heai>ed upon the con
sumers of hops and other consumers.
The relief to the smaller growers, of
tobacco, by allowing them to retail
SIOO of their own production, was
stricken out.

Atlanta, Jan. 28,1875.
Up to date t ho Legislature lias done
nohting of importance. The various
committees are engaged upon the
different bills referred to them. They
are daily reporting, and by next week
both branches will enter fully upon
tho duty of finally disposing of bills.
In the Senate to-day, Mr. Hudson,
of Harris, Introduced a bill to allow
the Governor to employ the convict
force In constructing tho North and
South Road from Columbus to Ham
ilton.
In the House of Representatives
to-day, nothing of general interest
was considered, oxeept the repeal of
tlie act of tho last Legislature ex
empting from taxation cotton and
woollen manufactories. Messrs.
Turnbull and Warner were in favor
of tlie repeal, and Messrs. Walsh,
Magill, Livingston and Calhoun, of
Fulton, were opposed to it. The
question was not taken when the
House adjourned.
The House of Representatives to
day treated one of your citizens, Pe
terson Thwcatt, former Comptroller
General, very unjustly. They re
fused to pay him, or allow him to sue
the State.
Mr. Grimes, in Introducing Mr.
Thweatt’s claim yesterday, supported
it In such a clear, sucefnt, able and
forcible manner, as at once to attract
the notico arid admiration of the
House.
The House then adjourned.
Had the discussion continued, I
doubt not but that Mr. Williams
would have participated in the de
bate, for ho was near Mr. Grimes, and
seemed to feel considerable interest
for the fato of his friend and coun
ty man, Mr. Thwcatt.
Although the newspapers hero and
in other parts of the State seem quite
unanimous for the jieople of the 9th
District to send 11. 11. Hill to Con
gress, yet the impression here with
the “knowing ones” is that he stands
no chance of a nomination. The
chances are decidedly for Mr. Hell,
t in; present member.
Mr. James Norcross delivered an
interesting lecture at James Hall, on
the subject of free school instruction.
A large crowd was in attendance, and
his remarks and views were novel,
but convinced many that such was
tho plan that should be adopted to
give general enlightenment.
Senator It'esc may justly be termed
tlie guardian of the treasury. Any
measure looking to tlie appropriation
of money from the State Treasury,
unless It lie one of practical necessi
ty, always meets his condemnation.
He never yields to the allurements or
fascinations that are held out iu sup
port of unnocessar y measures of this
class.
SenatorPeavy insistson legislating
from a high standpoint. Tlie conse
quence is that lie is seen, at. least
once a day, in the gallery, where the
committee on “matrimonial eligibili
ty ami attractions” meet. The pros
pects aro now that his petition will
be favorably oondstderod at least by
one of the committee.
Tho committee appointed by the
Senate to examine the bonds of the
Macon and Brunswick railroad, met
at tlie Capitol last evening.
The convention question is exciting
considerable interest among the
members of the Legislature. It is
difficult to decide how the Assembly
stands on this question, though it is
considered that a majority of both
brunches are preparing themselves
for the coming contest.
Several bills have been introduced
looking to an early adjournment of
the Legislature. The Legislature
thus far has done nothing of import
ance, but we presume they will go to
work in earnest next week, and clean
out the innumerable local bills, and
pass some wholesome laws, that look
to the general good ot the entire
State. Occasional.

—Two strangers walked into the
German bank at Alexandria, Ya., a
few days ago, and endeavored to in
duce the cashier to come from behind

picious appearance led the cashier to
decline, and ht> at the same time put
his hand on a pistol in his desk,
whereupon the strangers departed.

tho only persons in the bank, and it
is supposed foul play and robbery
were the objects of the visitors.
