LETTER OF A GEORGIA UNION

LETTER OF A GEORGIA UNIoNIST.
To the Editors of the Egeniag Post;
The letter of Montgomery Blair, in your
paper Of the 8th, requires more than pas
sing notice, especially from these who claim
the title OF Southern Loyalsts." There
are some expressions used in il that cannot
be excused on the ground OF haste in writ
ing or -iRexperience9 in ccon1posltion-the
author is too well verse in such essays TO
seek the protection which such defence
would afford him His letter WAS written
with an object, aud It was doubtless care
fully considered. Unfortunately for Mr.
Blair, he is entirely unaequainted with some
Of the secret history Of the secession ofA.H.
Stephens, which bis notorious hero could
easily give him, or, failing in this, he could
acouaint himself with by communicating
with any man who lived in Georgia at the
time the events occurred that have made
him 50 conspicuous.
At the hazard Of newspaper. .notoriety,
and with the expectation Of being forced to
adduce evidence to prove my assertion, I
here assert, that Alexander H. Stephens
was not a Union man at or during the ses-
sion Of the Convention Of the state Of Geor-
gia which took her out of the Union, but
that he was the leader and controller Of its
acts, and only assumed the name Of Union
ist because he doubted the extent of the
disnnion sentiment of the state at that time,
and sought to act in such a way that, how
ever the state might go, he would be in the
ascendant Especially was he guided in
his conduct by knowing that popular feel
ING was pointedto Jefferson Davis. as. the
representative Of tue secession element, and
that he was. already designated as the man
to head tie rebellion. Political jealousy

was in consequence irresponsible and I'M
lawful, and its doings and ordinances but
of temporary validity. This belief is not
now confined to its author, since the theory
upon which it is founded has become gem
orally understood. s
Is this loyalty is it common political
honesty? Did Mr.. Blair suspect himself
able to smooth over the repulsive Protru-
berances of innate disunion, and hide from
the people facts which every Georgian
knows? l

letter must not be excused from his effort

young man insoleutly. ',That viii be very
much as I please.
Both the mother and her son had en-,
tirely forgotten the. presence Of the young
girl who was standing in the dusky shad
ows near the door, until this moment
when Mrs. Richley, turning sharply around
saw her.
"What are you waiting for?' she asked
jirritably. Il have told you already that
/ it was not convenient to pay the money

Her cheeks were flushed even beneath
their artificial bloom Of rouge, and her chill
grey eyes sparkIed with rising anger, as
Laura Avery composedly advanced forward
I She took one of the wax tapers from It's
china shell aud lighted the gas with a steady
hand, whose flash of rich rings filled Mrs
Richley with as olishmtnt.

Forian's handsome cheek had growr
pale-his knees quivered beneath him as b.
mechanically took the bill from his pocket
book and placed it in the hand Of the i'm
peratiye beauty, while Mrs. Riehley sanl
back aghast into the cushioned air-chair
Florian made one desperate effort to re

of sore defeat and discontinue. .s-

Laufa's cold reply, as she withdrew from
the apartment, naughty and unapproach
able as a statue Of ice.
She hurried homeward through the tvi
light streets, with a burning cheek an
fbeating heart, and it was nearly dark whel
once more she entered Miss Waynap
room, lighted only by the faint glow of
low fire ........ 81.
Back 50 soon, Laura" asked Ellen some
what surprised.
"Here is the money, Nelly, and th,
wine" she said, thankful that the dim ligh
could not betray her telI-taIe features
And now you must get well as fast a
you cam -a.
!. ooh, Laura; l am SO much obliged t.
you, said Ellen, earnestly.
Laura stopped to kiss her friends pa't
cheek, iuwardly rejecting how much she
had 10 thank Ellen's indisposition.
But she never told Ellen of the discov
cry she had unwittingly made, while fulfil
ling the gentle mission of friendship, anc
no one ever knew the precise manner il
which the contemplated match between
Florian RichIey and Laura Avery wa
broken off
There are some things that bring thei
own reward in this word-and that one
act Of kindness had saved Laura from uu
consciously taking the step thatwould have
precipitated her into lifetime Of misery.

the nrinciples now at stake should not suffer

the principles now at stake should not suffer
from discussions.
And again.
When we hear a man harping continually
about corruption in politics, the packing Of
caucuses, and the pulling of wires, we know
just where to find the man who will SO far as
he is able practice all sorts of political cheat
ing, humbuggng, and villainy.
BY the by, this little aphorism calls to mind
a communication which appeared in Mondays
Stdf, signed "Soldat," containing the follow
ing astonishing remark: at is unnecessary
here to comment upon the manoeuvre- by
which the ward caucuses were packed so long
before the usual time" We should think so!
We should certainly be of the opinion that it
would be necessary to prone this allegation be-
fore commenting on it. The caucuses were
duly called; the notices appeared conspicuous
ly in the newspapers; everything was conduct
ed fairly and above board. The man who
talks of packing caucuses" under these cir
cumstances, has only to look at the extract
quoted above, to see what real soldier, who
saw service under Grant, thinks of him.
Everybody knows that the sentiment of the
Republican voters of this city is overwhelm-
ingly in favor Of Mr.. Spring. Everybody
knows that the delegates from this city are
unanimously in his favor, because there was
no opposition worthy ofthe name. If Large
proportion" of the electors do favor another
candidate, why, after ample notice, did they
not appear and manifest their choice? There
are soldiers in the delegation from this city
there are soldiers in other delegations, who
will support Mr. Spring. There are soldiers
who will support Gen. Chamberlain. They
will be found as the Star has said, "to enter
tain a diversity of opinions" on this as on 9TH
er subjects. We deny utterly, in justice to
the citizen soldiery of this State, the inbound
ed imputation that they are banded together
or are disposed to band together to prescribe
civiians-to oppose men who like Mr.. Spring,
have always been and are still their most
faithful friends, simply because they have new
or worn shoulder-straps. .t4-
