Col. Stewart’s Kopiy to Judge
'Wright—He takes a “Bird’s Eye
View” of the Situation mid tells
Wliat is the Matter with Hannah.
Mr. Editor —Since Judge Wright has
taken the liberty to use my name, in
connection with the subject of the lease
of the State Road, I beg leave to state
that I am not responsible for any errors
that may have been committed in leas
ing the Road to Brown & Co.—that I
endorse no wrong, trick nor scheme, that
has or may have been employed to swin
dle the State ; and that, so far as any
discovery of wrong may be made. I shall
not hesitate to encourage every legiti
mate means within my power to protect
the State and the people against it.
The lease of the Road is said to have
been made in conformity with an act of
the Legislature, which authorized the
letting of the Road to the highest bid
der. Bids were made, and tbe result
was : A contract was entered into be
tween the State of Georgia on the one
part r and Joseph E. Brown and others
on the other part, to run for a term of
twenty years It was a contract to all
intents and purposes; and legally bind
ing upon the parties until fraud in the
transaction is made to appear ; and, even
then the courts will have to decide the
case—the Legislature having no power
whatever to sit in judgment on the va
lidity of such contracts.
From my knowledge of machinery
and its management, to make it success
ful, I would not give more than $25,000
per month for the State Road; and so
I wrote to J. R. Wallace, of Atlanta,
who is one of the Seago-Blodgett Com
pany, warning him as a friend, to avoid
a suit against Brown A Cos., to take the
lease out of their hands. I pointed out
to him the immense expenditures that
would have to be made to rebuild bridges,
to repair the lload, and to furnish new
equipments, and I told him that it would
require the most consummate skill and
perseverance in management to pay even
$25,000 per month.
The present management is paying in
that sum, and I believe will be able to
continue paying promptly that amount,
which sums up three hundred thousand
dollars per year, and which, w r e may rest
assured, is more money than would ac
crue to the State from Judge Wright’s
programme of allowing the politicians
of the next Legislature, by a revolution
ary act, to <; recapture the Road,” and
nm it again by political overseers.
I am for the lease as it is, unless fraud
can be made to appear in the transac
tion. If fraudulently obtained. lam in
favor of an action being brought that
our courts may set it aside.
But the Judge wants to go to Legis
lature himself; and he wants to be Gov
ernor. lie has made two unsuccessful
efforts to get me off the track. The
second attempt in that direction came
with the plea that he was the only man
that could heat Scott. The Judge wants
to go to the Legislature so lie can there
electioneer for himself for Governor so
he can recapture the State Road, and
show us by his superior management
that lie can make it a big jurying thing.
Now, from my knowledge of the Judge’s
mechanical skill, I would not entrust
him with the running gear of a ducx’s
nest. J. A. Stewart

Tl»e Pennsylvania Democracy.
As the action* of the Pennsylvania
Democrats has been looked to with in
terest, we give below, the resolutions, as
reported and adopted at their late State
Convention, on the 24th ult.
TIIE RESOLUTIONS.
Mr. Lewis O. Cassidy, the chairman
of the Committee on Resolutions, re
; ported the following :
Resolved, that the force and bayonet
bills recently enacted by Congress arc
gross attacks upon the reserved rights
of the States, destructive to the ele
mental principles of civil liberty, intol
erable to a free people, centralizing in
tendency, and should be forthwith re
pealed.
Resolved, That the language of Sen
ator Carl Scliurz in his St. Louis speech,
wherein he says, I consider it one of
the most pressing needs of our days
that we should return to the sound prac
tice of constitutional government. The
safeguards, of our common rights and
liberties contained in tlie Constitution
are too sacred and valuable a boon to
be permanently jeopardized in provid
ing for a passing emergency. It is
time that the American people open
their eyes to t4ie dangerous character of
this tendency, and that neither a great
name nor an object appealing to our sym
pathies should be permitted to disguise
it. As for me I have seen the working
of irresponsible power and personal gov
ernment in other countries, and I may
assure my constituents, that, while I am
a citizen of this republic, I shall strug
gle to the last gasp against its introduc
tion here,” was but the utterance of
well-known and frequently announced
Democratic doctrine.
Resolved, That the Democratic party
is opposed to the existing system of
Federal taxation and finance, ruinous as
is its effects upon the laboring, produc
ing, mining, and manufacturing inter
ests of the people, and the fruitful
source of “ hard times,” personal in
debtedness, and individual bankruptcy.
Resolved, that the public debt is bind
ing upon the nation and must be paid,
and that we are unalterably opposed to
any and all movements looking towards
repudiation, direct or indirect, but in
justice to the laboring and producing
classes, the rate of interest thereon
should be reduced at the earliest possi
ble date.
Resolved, That labor and capital have
no just cause of antagonism; that we
deprecate strife between these two great
forces, and earnestly seek to place the
laborer and the capitalist on such a plat
form as will enable both to amicably ad
fust their differences, and we are unal
terably opposed to the importation of a
servile race for the purpose of degrading
the standard and lowering the position
of the laboring men of the nation.
Resolved, That we recognize the bind
ing obligation of all the provisions of
the Constitution of the United States
as they now exist, and we deprecate the
discussion of issues which have been
settled in the manner and by the au
thority constitutionally appointed.
Revolved, That w T e are for a govern
ment vigorously frugal and simple, ap
plying all the possible saving of the pub
lic revenue to the discharge of the na
tional debt, and opposed to the multi
plication of officers and salaries merely
to make place for partisans and for in
creasing by every device the public debt.
Resolved, That the continuance by a
Republican Congress of the income tax,*
when the same is at least of doubtful
constitutionality, and the necessity there
for has long since ceased to exist, is an
exercise of a power oppressive to the
people and a gross violation of their
rights and interests.
Resolved, That the present tariff is in
many of its features oppressive ; should
be revised, and that we herewith request
our Representatives in Congress, when
the tariff shall be the subject of re-ad
justment, to see that the immense pro
ducts of the .State and its industries are
properly cared fbr.
Resolved, That the soldiers and sailors
of Pennsylvania arc entitled to and
should receive at the hands of the na
tional government a prompt recognition
of their claims to a proper and just
equalization of the bounties in land, as
well as in money, granted for their pa
triotic services in the late war for the
supremacy of the Union and the Con
stitution.
The resolutions w T ere voted on collect
ively, except the sixth, and unanimously
adopted. Upon the sixth, commencing,
“ That we recognize the binding obliga
tion, Ac.,” there was considerable de
bate ; Mr. Cassidy, the chairman of the
committee closing it, speaking in favor
of the resolution. The yeas and nays
were then called for, vote taken, and re
sulted in, yeas 70 ; nays 53. The reso
lution was adopted.
Jefferson Davis,
Yesterday Atlanta was stirred from
“center to circumference” by the an
nouncement that Jefferson Davis was in
the city, at the H. I. Kimball House.
Hundreds of ladies and gentlemen called
to pay their respects to the venerable
Chieftain and Statesman.
Last night at 8 o’clock the people
began collecting at the Kimball House.
The beauty and fashion of the city
gathered there until parlor after parlor
was filled and the sterner sex crowded
all the available space inside, and in
front of the house on Pryor street.
The immense crowd made such a per
fect jam that it was impossible to take
notes, and the continuous cheering of
the audience, prevented us from hearing
distinctly the speeches We give below
as lull a synopsis as possible under the
circumstances. General Garlington wel
comed r. Davis in a speech as beauti
ful and chaste as it was brief and appro
priate.
General Garlington spoke, in sub
stance, as follows:
Mr Dan's: As the organ of the citi
zens of Atlanta, I beg to tender you
their heartfelt welcome to your coming
n"their midst. This tribute is offered
to you by true and honest hearts and
not by servile followers. It is offered
to you by a people whom you represent
1 ed in a great struggle for the guaran
tees of liberty, which they had inherited
! from a noble ancestry. It has no po
litical significance—it is the homage of
hearts overflowing with gratitude for
public services rendered to the cause of
freedom and independence. Yb)u, sir.
was the chosen chief of a brave and
chivalrous people, whose cause went
down under thfe accumulated weight of
adverse circumstances which no effort
of daring, courage, or statesmanship
could control. Its failure was one of
those inscrutable events which baffle
human wisdom and foresight. But. sir.
this failure has left no blot or stain upon
your proud record. This truth is writ
ten on history’s page and engraven in
indellible letters, upon the hearts of the
brave and true men of the South. In
the terrible ordeal through which they
have passed since tliesud reverses which
befell their arms, your name has been
treasured as a sacred thing, your brave
soldiers honor it, our noble women res
pect and-love it, aud our gallant boys,
catching the inspiration of their fathers’
and mothers’ hearts, cherish it as one of
the few, the immortal names that are
not born to die.
In the name of this people. I welcome
you to-night, and tender you their love,
respect, and admiration. The cause for
which you and they encountered the dan
gers of flood and field is now T obscured ;
but the principles of liberty—for which
you and they dared to do or die, are
imperishable. They will in due fullness
of time assert their supremacy over
wrong aud tyranny.
The freemen of America will in the
end be true to themselves, though they
must submit to the fate that has befallen
them, and in the plaintive language of
a favorite bard, exclaim :
“Furl that banner; true his gory.
But ’tis wreathed around with glory,
And’twill live in song and story,
Though its folds ;ire in the dust.
For its fame, on brightest pages—
Sung by poets, penned by sages—
Shall go sounding down to ages—
Furl its folds though now we must.”
Jefferson Davis then came forward
upon the balcony amid loud and contin
uous applause and cries of “cheers for
Jeff. Davis.”
Mr. Davis said that he thanked the
.audience for this testimonial, which he
considered as not paid to his merit, but
to their worth. No people had ever
proved as devoted to a fallen chief as
the people of the South.
” hey had engaged in the last warfare
to battle for the same principle contended
for by their revolutionary ancestors, the
right of communal independence or
State sovereignty. He denied that the
right of the people had ever been sub
mitted to the arbitrament of the sword.
No one could delegate that right; as
their chief Executive, he had never sub
mitted it, nor would he ever admit it.
He alluded in terse and glowing terms
to the historic fame of Georgia, from
the days of Oglethorpe to the present.
Georgians had proved true to their glo
ry in the revolution, in 1812, and in the
last conflict. If the people of the North
had recognized the truthfulness and
fidelity of Georgians when they gave
up the contest, they would never have
considered it necessary to put them
under guard. The world could not fur
nish bayonets enongh to make a Geor
gian prove more faithful to hiscbliga
tions than his own oath could do.
lie would accept nothing. He would
admit that Power was in the ascendancy
over Right, but he never would admit
that he had done wrong. No one could
compel any one to believe that they
were guilty of wrong, if they were inno
cent. He had shaken hands with poli
tics, and advised the people to be quiet
and wait for the hour of deliverance.—
That hour would surely come. Gallileo
was compelled to recant, yet after the
singing he remarked, “and yet the world
moves.” The world moves. Right and
Truth and Principle would prevail.—
The surest way te regain our rights was
to act quietly—submit to the laws, but
yet yield up no principle.
The people of the North understood
their rights as well as the people of the
South, and would never consent to their
surrender. We must look to them to
bring about a change which would es
tablish the guarantees of liberty upon a
firm foundation. •
He did not counsel them to regain
their rights or contend for them by the
red hand of war. He trusted reporters
would report him correctly on this point.
He would die believing that the hour of
deliverance was at hand for the South.
He said that the first time he visited
Atlanta, it was in the woods. The next
time, it was a heap of ruins—the act of
vandalism that even exceeded the act
that disgraced the fame of Turenne—
now he was pleased to see that it had
grown to a large and magnificent city
It was an evidence of the greatness of a
people that defied fate and rose superior
to its decrees.
He had given up politics, and now
had taken to Life Insurance. He hoped
to insure their lives for a hundred years.
[ Constitution. (2S thi)
PRESIDENT DAVIS.
His Speech at Augusta*
We give below the remarks made by
this great chieftain of the “Lost cause,”
at Augusta, on Thursday, 25th, ult., at a
brilliant reception given him by the
citizens of that place :
My Frunds and Fclloic Citizens of
Georgia :
I feel that I have a peculiar claim
upon the people of Georgia, and that the
people of this State have, also, a pecul
iar claim upon me. My father was a
citizen of Georgia many long years ago
and to him have 1 often listened in the
days of my boyhood as he told me tra
ditions of the great revolution. It was
to this city of Augusta—this ancient
old town upon the banks of the Savan
nah—that my father then, but a mere
boy, came to join the revolutionary forces,
and enlisted beneath the American flag!
I am proud of my father and of his
State. If it is a crime to feel proud of
this sire—to glory in his devotion to !
the cause of the right—to remember i
with exultation his services in defense '
of liberty, then, my friends, is it also a !
crime to oppose a despotic centralization 1
; of power, and uphold the right of a
State to withdraw from a voluntary com
pact entered into only for the preserva
tion of them all. If this is a crime,
then am Ia criminal, and it Is the only
offense of which I have been guilty. I
repeat, Georgians, that I claim to be of
Georgia descent, and I glory in my lin
eage.
Although the distinguished gentle
man who welcomed me to your city with
words so kind and so eloquent, has said
that you pay a tribute to me by your
presence here to-night I cannot think
that he was correct in this remark. It
is not a tribute to me individually, but
because you feel that I am one of your
selves that you came to do me honor. —
i And while I am fully aware of this fact,
do not imagine that I feel at all morti
fied at it. or that my vanity is wounded
because you honor me only as the rep
• resentative of your cause. That cause
[ is dear to me —more precious even than
j life, (applause) and I glory in its remem
! brance.
Just here let me say to yon that I
! well know how every utterance of mine
I is seized upon by the organs and mem
j bers of a certain faction. lam well
| aware of the eagerness with which every
word of mine is caught up. and the in
genuity with which it is distorted and
used in furtherance of designs upon my
people, and hence I dare not speak to
you as I desire. My heart is full to
over-flowing, God knows, but I cannot
speak. Many memories of the past are
struggling in my brain, but I must be
silent.
Though I must not speak, it is no
fear for myself which commands my lips
te be closed. No, I have been punished
for my crimes, and have experienced
the worst which could be imposed. Tn
the cant language of the day, punish
ment with me is “played out.” The worst
that can be done has been done,and I have
no more- to fear. If I speak it is not
myself, but you who would be injured,
for, unfortunately, additional wrongs
can yet be heaped upon you. There
fore if I claim merit for anything, it
will be for keeping silent. My simplest
words may work you harm. If I say,
, “ Good night, my friends, go to your
homes,” and a Congressional investi
gating committee happened to be within
hearing, its members would swear that
I directed you to go and join the Ku-
Klux. (Laughter and applause.)—
Filled with that jealously which springs
from the knoweldge of their inferiority,
and of the justice of your pretentions,
and c uscious of broken covenants and
a violated constitution, they mistrust
every movement, and tremble with fear
when they think [that right may again
prevail. (Applause.)
But wrong cannot always be tri
umphant. I will say nothing and you
must do nothing, even though tyranny
oppresses grievously upon you. For
bear for a season, and a day will come
when all will yet be w T ell. I may not,
nor may some of you live to sec it, but
it is surely coming. (Applause.) He
who reigns above and lives always w ill
see that justice is done, lie will not
allow 7 tho wicked to always remain in
power, nor the righteous to be oppressed.
We can wait till that day comes and in
the meantime be quiet. ’Tis an old and
wise saying that a good biting dog never
barks much. If we wait patiently a
sense of justice will yet return to the
pet pie of the United States, or an op
portunity will come when our rights can
be gained, and not only our rights—the
rights of the South—but the rights of
all the people; the rights that were
fought for and obtained at the point of
the sword in the first revolution. (Ap
plause.)
But though I cannot and should not
speak. I fear that where the mind and
the heart are both so full, that I will
not be able to restrain my words. I
cannot think one thing and say another
and unless the honest emotion of my
soul can be expressed, I do not care to
speak. I thank you, gentlemen, for
your kindness, and feel deeply touched
at its exhibition. May God foster and
preserve you. If ever the day comes
when I can*Ypcak freely, I will be among
you, and say to you all that is in my
heart. Till then farewell, and may the
Great God be with you always. (Ap
plause.
GRAND JUBILEE.
Completion of the Ala. & Chat
tanooga Railroad—Last Spike, of
Solid Silver—Financial Condition
of Road—Future Prospects, Arc*.,
etc.
Tuscaloosa, Ala., )
May 20th, 1871. j
Editor Times :
On Monday last the banks of the Big
Sandy River, twelve miles below the
“ City of Oaks,” was the scene of a cer
emony never before witnesssed in Ala
bama. The last spike—and that of
solid silver—was driven in the Alabama
A Chattanooga Railroad, which for a
distance of nearly three hundred miles,
has been pushed forward the past two
years —notwithstanding strong sectional
opposition and late financial depression—
with an energy certainly never surpassed
in railroad building, and rarely equalled.
From Chattanooga the road runs in a
Southwesterly direction down the pictu
resque and fertile Lookout Valley to
A alley Head—the plantation and resi
dence of the late Hon. Wm. O. Win
ston, in this forty miles bridging the
swiftly running Lookout Creek seven
teen times. Thence it pushes in direct
line down the still more beautiful Wills
Valley—which indeed must have been
intended by nature for just such a rail
road —to Attalla, the end of the valley
eighty-seven miles from Chattanooga.
From this point through the flat woods
of St Clair county, over which it has
been facetiously remarked that an emp
ty buzzard could not fly without starv
ing—through the undulating ridges of
Jefferson county, to the flourishing town
of Elyton, which within twenty years
must become a metropolis, the junction
of several railroads and the center ot
mining industry, representing millions
of capital—through the hills of Tusca
loosa to this city, truly the garden city
of the South —and onward over the low
country of tile Warrior and Big Sandy
Valleys to Meridian, Mississippi.
As may be imagined, the completion
of such a work in this section called
forth thousands of spectators from Ten
nessee, Georgia, Alabama and Missis
sippi, and was celebrated with appropri
ate ceremonies. On Monday night the
Lightning Express train left Chatta
nooga at S* o’clock, and without inter
ruption reached Meridian at 10 A. M.
of Thursday, where it was enthusiasti
cally received by the eagerly interested
citizens of that city. Regular passen
ger and freight traius are - running,
making connection between New York
and New Orleans. By this new route
the passage between New York and New
Orleans is 150 miles shorter than by any
other route, and the straightness of the
road enables a rate of speed which will
shorten the trip many hours,consequently
this road must monopolize a large share
of the immense passage and transporta
tion between the Southwest, East aud
Northeast. Space will not permit a de
scription of the rich country which is
already being developed with surprising
rapidity by a long needed railroad. The
financial condition of the road is in a
cloudy condition just now, but what
ever may be the result, the road is a
fixed fact, the State of Alabama is abun
dantly secured on its loans, and the ul
timate benefit to the country will be the
same, even should the present company
prove bankrupt, which we do not seri
ously apprehend.
In the celebration of Monday, and
its following festivities, the employees
of this road, who have toiled from the
beginning to the triumphant consumma
tion, noted and'felt one vacant place—
that long and faithfully occupied by
Calhoun’s worthy citizen, John A.
Rucker. John is “ one of the real old
sort,” and bore the brunt of this battle
with nature with the same untiring stead
fastness that he faced the bullets of his
country’s foe through the late unpleas
antness, and both officers and fellow
foremen regretted that considerations of
duty called him home, ere the final spike
was driven. Calhoun is favored if she
has more such men. 11.
