The people Of Georgia evidently regard
the Southern Confederacy as a broken
bubble, and feel disposed to make over
lures for reconstruction. If left to the
free exercise Of the rights Of sovereignty,
as set forth in the Articles of Confedera-
ton, and upon which was based the right
of individual States to secede from the
Union, Georgia would soon desert the
sinking Southern Confederacy and seek
repose from the horrors and snoliat,on of
civil war under the protecting folds of the
Old Banner. under which she enjoyed
long years Of peace and prosperity. Her
sister States, IN rebellion, however, do not
seem to regard the sovereignty princi.
pie as applicable to States wishing to
withdraw from the Confederate comnact
to renew their allegiance to the Union !:
hence Georgia will find it no easy task to
sever the gordian knot which binds her
to the rebel Confederacy. The Junta at
Richmond already show symptoms Of
alarm, and through their organs, the &C.
credited mouth.pieces Of rebellion, urge

Within a few days past, we have re-
ferred to the character of the Eastern dis
patches which we receive by telegraph
and the reliability" of the sources from
which many of the startling paragraphs
emanate, which daily appears in our tele-
graphic columns. A big chief among
these is "the Worlds special" For the
information of our readers, and that they
may know how much dependence to place
on those items which we credit to "the
Worlds special" we will state that
druid" the oracular correspondent of
the World who has raised on paper the
most formidable rebel armies, and has ar
ranged in printed paragraphs the Union
discontinue in numerous instances. turns
out to be a newspaper adventurer by the
name of Calvin Gather Flint, instead Of
one of the high secesh aristocrats ofBalti-
more who has secret affiliations with the
Richmond Cabinet, and speaks by the
card. The Chicago Tribune gives very
free sketch of him as follows:
"He served his time as a newspaper re-
porter in Chicago, having been employed on
the Times. In that capacity he was princi-
pally noted for stupendous lying, and vivid
Imagination, which never stopped short with
the boundaries Of truth, newspaper plaRiar-
ism, an utter disregard for personal feeling,
fast living, and reckless expenditure. We
think it within bounds to state that he never
wrote line with grain of truth in it unless
BY accident. One Of his principal exploits
was stealing life Of Douglas, in this wise !:
J. w. Sheahan, Esq, then editor Of the
Times, was engaged upon q life Of Douglas.
Mr.. S. was accustomed to leave his manu-
scripts, which he had written during the day,
in his drawer. Flint, whose duties kept him
at the office late at night, opened the drawer
regularly and copied them. As the book
neared completion. Flint was suddenly called
to New York on business, and Mr.. Sheahan
was astonished soon after at Life of Douglas
in the market, which bore striking resem-
blance to his, and, Of course, killed his book
financially. He next Aourished on the Gin
cinnati Enquirer, and then on the New York
Times and HeralGs corps, from each Of
which he was kicked out, and finally turns
up as Druid, the secession correspondent
Of the New York World. He is the paid
tool Of Baltimore secessionists, poor, mis-
cradle shyster, strutting dandy, a reckless,
constituencies penny-a.liner. His brother,
when last in Chicago, was in Jail for forging
his uncle's name to a check and drawing
bogus drafts"
Hereafter, when particularly startling
paragraph appears in our dispatches, and
"the Worlds special" is given as the
author of the "shrewd guess-work, |" the
reader will probably take it cum grano
sails. If it turns out to be true, it will
because it served the purpose Of the World
better than lie.
