Thu heresy of atheism is again
becoming popular; or, if the facta do
not authorize the use of so brood on
adjective, it may at least be said that
atheistic tendencies are discernible
in the writings and conversations of
a growing percentage of the cultured,
and therefore of necessity arc daily
lincoming less hideous to the public
eye. That, which amounts to stork
and downright atheism is advocated
by many who would shrink as from a
serpent in its coll, from the bare im
putation. These tendencies arc nur
tured by the prevailing evil of the
times, which seems to be a restless
ness in many quarters of submitting
to anything called doctrine, and u
determination to shake off, or rather
to deny, roßjionslbillty to any school
of ethics and morals, human or
divine.
The advocates of atheism attempt
to hide their deformity with such
comely apparel us Progress, X’ositiv
ism, Advanced Thought, Sic., and
their absurdities with such wantonly
abused uud respectable old theories
as Evolution, Atomic Attraction, &c.
Compelled to recognize law to boa
“rule of action,” and loth to submit
to any rule, their strategy is to anni
hilate in the public mind the notion
that unythiug proceeds by rules, ex
cept by such as arc purely physical.
The consequence is that all Christen
dom is fast gravitating towards that
general condition in which men seem
to have no respect or regard for law
as taw, und arc satisfied if they only
square their conduct by the grossly
material and practical consideration
as to how they can violate it and es
cape its penalties. Those influences
do not Indeed control such men ns
John Stuart Mill, who spoke of the
“unknowable,” and Prof. Tyndall,
who attributes all phenomena to the
“blind forces of Nature”; but it is
upon those occupying a lower plane
of morals and culture that such her
esies operate, und the mistakes of
snoh men (are we not even justified
in saying the wilful inconsistencies
of such men ?) In their effects are fitly
and forcibly described by one who
says that “when error sits in the seat
of power and authority, and is gener
ated in higli plaees, it may be com
pared to a torrent which originates
indeed iu the mountain, but commits
its devastation in the vale.”
The prevailing type of atheism in
this day, seeing to boa renewed form
of HriNoeisM, in which tie- personality
of the Deity is steadily denied. Spi
nosu resented the charge of atheism,
but proclaimed God and the universe
to be identical; that all matter was a
port of Deity considered as extended;
all men and animals os purls of Deity
considers.l as cogitative; and that ail
reproduction was but. Deity creating
modifications of Himself. This doc
trine of Spinosism necessitates the
further tlg'ory that God and mutter
have existed from all eternity, and,
oddly enough to be at all consistent
with itself, it involves the mainte
nance of the position that Deity is an
increasing or diminishing Deity ac
cording as men, animals or objects
are being reproduced or annihilated.
The popularity of this form of
atheism can lie readily accounted for
when we consider that; if the person
ality of (iodhood oftn be successfully
denied, the personal accountability
of manhood can lie avoided. It is to
this result that tills damaging doc
trine tends; a doctrine which, in our
opinion, has a much stronger hold
upon the popular mind at this time,
and shapes public action to a much
greater degree, than is imagined by
the votaries of those religions which
unite upon the common ground of
an active and intelligent First Cause.
The investigations of scientists and
mathematicians have, of late years,
been crowned with fruits so ripened
and matured that the public call for
the same character of evidence in the
domain of theology; at least may we
say, that the investigators imagine
themselves to bo authorized to re
quire the same proofs and to submit
to no less, it is certainly not too
eensoriows to insist that the disease
Is not so much in the public mind as
in the heart, and the expression of
atheistic sentiments is but the out
cropping of . the steady, baneful
growth from those s|>ots where the
character qf the soil und tho mode of
culture will of necessity cause it to
flourish.
Upon the whole, however, it is real
ly hard to conceive how any man
thoroughly sane can deny the oter
nal existenoe of a Supreme Being of
infinite wisdom, power, justice, good
ness and truth. Of all absurdities the
most complete and self-convicting is
atheism. As n philosophic mode of
expression it is even inadmissible for
men to assert their belief in the reali
ty of the Divine essence. We may
speak with the confidence of positive
knowledge, and say we know there is a
Uon! When one goes on board a
train of cars, and secs the locomotive
with its elaborate and complicated
machinery as it traverses the land at
furious Biased when he visits some
immense manufactory and sees the
thousands of spindles whirling at a
countless rate, lie speaks no such
words of simplicity and folly as that
he believes in the existence of skillful
machinists, Who understand the prin
ciples tiiHin which steam and water
power are utilized and made subserv
ient to the necessities of men. When
in his travels he views tho fields with
neat enclosure—the sod upturned
the green, luxuriant growth, or the
harvest of abundant shocks, it would
well provoke a smile should he but
say that he believed in the existence
of a frugal and industrious husband
ry. Were he to ascend a tower in
some great city that counted its souls
by and looking abroad
should contemplate the sea of build
ings and spires within range of his
vision, would his boldest venture be
to announce Ids belief in the exist
ence of artisans, builders, masons
and mechanics? Y’et again, after
1 viewing all these things, when la the
morning he sees the glorious sun ris
ing to bring cheer, comfort und glad
. ness to the homes of men -when he
beholds the gathering clouds, tho de
scending rains, the earth clad in
beauty and abundance, anticipating
the necessities of man and beast
when lie passes through the hour of
the day for labor, und enjoys tho
grateful night of rest- when he con
templates the mighty machinery of
the univorso working in such change
less harmony, and with an adaptation
of means to ends so wonderful and
wise, would he make to common
sense and common reason so cold
obeisanoe as merely to assert his
belief that an infinite intelligence
controlled the mighty whole? Yes,
we know there is a God I We know
It unassisted by any human agencies,
untaught by even the truthful devo
tions of David or tho deep medita
tions of Job. We know it as we see
it siiarkling in every dew-drop we
know it us we read it upon every
trembling leaf of tho forest wc know
it us we hear it sounding from every
billow of the sea wo know it, for that
it is written in characters of living
light upon a scroll whose breadth is ''
the universe and whose duration is j
eternity!

Muj. W. D. Chipley, who is the
general Southern agent of that gigan
tic railroad, the Baltimore and Ohio, i
and its important feeder, the Virginia
Midland, lias been located by that
Company in Atlanta. Muj. Chipley
was for years art alderman of this
city, undone of our most active busi
ness men. If his home is to be in
Atlanta, the good citizens of that city
may congratulate themselves in the
acquisition of one of the roost intelli
gent and energetic gentlemen it lias
ever been our pleasure to know. In
him Columbus has lost an enterpris
ing citizen whose every effort looked
to the credit und prosperity of the
city, and one whom we can ill afford
to lose. Atluntu, with all of her en
terprise will soon learn to appreciate I
him, and place him in the front rank j
of progress.

Atlanta, Jan. 20, 1H7.",.
Bills continue to flow into both
branches of the Legislature. The j
sources of proposed legislation seem- j
ed to bo inexhaustible, and it is to be ;;
hoped that in so much substaive
some wisdom may lie found.
Mr. Kibbt'e lias just successfully
engineered an important bill through j
the Senate. It fixes the salary of
the Clerk of the Supreme Court at
$4,000 per annum, and provides that
all costs collected exceeding this
amount shall be planed in the State
Treasury, und shall constitute a fund
to be known as the library fund, j
The Judges of the Supreme Court are j
constituted ft a-ominittee to choose;
what books snail tie purchased by
tills fund.
Tho bill is well framed and reflects
credit on its author. It lias long
been needed and will tie of great ben
efit to the State. Tlte Supreme Court
business is now so groat ami tho
costs on each ease so large that the
office of clerk lias become by far tho
most lucrative in the government. It
would not be an exaggeration to put!
down liis average yearly receipts at
$ 10,000.
The bill gives him a good salary,
an ample remuneration for his labor,
and puts about SO,OOO wortli of books 1
into the State Library every year. J
We need more legislation of this 1
kind.
The Senate has begun on the Code, j
and omniscience can only tell when ,
they will get through with it. Some- j
times a bill to change some utiimpor-!
tant section is introduced and is thor
oughly discussed for u whole day and !
then tabled, so that tilings remain j
in stain quo, except that about one
thousand dollars has disappeared
from the Treasury. However, we
suppose that these law-makers have
a right to talk just as much as they
want to.
The bill to pay Col. Peterson
Thweatt $6,230 for services as Comp- j
troller was lost in tho House by a
large majority.
News has just been received that
the people of Clarke county have
unanimously nominated Hon. B. If.
Hill to represent them in Congress.
They have issued an address .to the
people of tin- District urging them to I
coincide in their choice. Things bow
look bright for Mr. Hill and it is gen
erally thought that he will win the |
race. The only opposition to his elec
tion that we are aware of exists in j
Hall county. A few of Col. Handler's
friends will try to get him into Con- \
gross, but it is not at all probable that;
he will be successful.
The Washington correspondent of
the Atlanta Constitution in a recent
telegram speaking of t lie terrible fight
now raging over the Civil Bights bill,
says that the Georgia delegation are
making a manly stand and are always 1
in their seats to do all in their power i
against the passage of tho outrage, ,
The people should be grateful to their
representatives for their noble eon
duet in an hour when men are severe
ly tried.
Col. W. H. Sparks delivered an ad
dress at the Representative Hall last
night on “8. S. Prentiss." Mr. Sparks
is getting quite old but still retains
his youthful spirit and fire. His re
marks on the life of the wonderful
Mississippi orator were fine and high
ly appreciated by the audience.
Miss Jennie Patterson, the charm
ing lady and accomplished reader, is
to visit the city soon and give an en
11 tortalnment for the benefit of the
: I Young Men’s Library.
The young folks are all in impatient
i anxiety for the grand masquerade
■ ball which conies off next week.
Mr. Holtzclaw, tho revenue tax eol
; lector at this place has just returned
■ from a very successful tour through
- Northeast Georgia. While there In
seized twenty-two illicit distilleries
and a regiment of violators of tile su
- ored revenue laws. Poor fellows!
they have little mercy to expect from
tho United States Court. Perhaps,
I they should be treated roughly.

Thus the New York Tribune : “The
Georgia protest against tho went
military outrage in New Orleans is no
less emphatic than those that have
come from other States; but its most
significant and commendable feature,
ns the utterance of Southern Legisla
ture, is its condemnation of all forms
of lawlessness coupled with an appeal
to the oppressed people of Louisiana
to suffer still in patience, looking
only to legal tuoutis of redressing
their wrongs.”
Ali. who handle money must occa
sionally get hold of counterfeit bills,
for the note printing bureau at Wash
ington makes tho startling admission
that seven out of the nine denomina
tions of the national bank notes have
been counterfeited. Nor is this the
worst yet. It is further asserted that
j the makers of spurious notes urc get-
I ting more expert every year.
| According to Sheridan every negro
that has been killed in the South has

the principles of the party.-- St. Louis
