~The editor Of the Athens NE.

D@The editor Of the Athens Messen-
ger MooRE's Bank, Radical and Know
Nothing organ, replied,in his issue Of the
27th nit, to our articles giving the ensr-
NOUS and reckless expenditures of the
War, Navy and interior Departments, by
copying the financial statement rendered
BY WELLS, special tool Of the Radical
Congress, and by saying "wilful liar"
Mr.. Editor: The people fully under
stand that WELLS statement was prepar-
ed, BY order Of Congress, to cover up the
reckless waste ofsthe peoples money, by
your party, in placing the South under
control Of fignorant Negroes, and disfran-
chising White men; and does not contain
one word Of genuine truth; although it
does contain that which goes BY the name
Of Radical truth, but which the honest
farmers and mechanics, the tax payers,
turn their backs upon.

"Senex.o

The above is the signature of Radi.
cal correspondent, of the Athens Messen.
ger, who resides in Woods6eld.
In letter, published in the Messenger
of the 9th ult., "Senex" says: "Our ed.
itor deals in ISLANDERS begotten of petty
partisan feelings" "The worst of all
Negro worshippers is MOORE, whom he
gravely charges with being banker. He
we'll knows that the bank is an essential"
In reply to the first, we defy "Senex,"
or any other catspaw, working in the in
terests Of the Bondholders against the
tax payers, to place his finger upon one
slaDder or falsehood in the columns of
the Esprit" since we became its editor.
Our mission is to enlighten the people in
relation to the hellish acts, and uncon-
stitutional measures of the Revolutionary
party in power; and no hired tool Of
MooRE's, paid out of funds drawn from
the hearts blood of the honest, hard
working farmers and mechanics Of Mon.
roe County, shall deter US from SO doing.
MOORE as a Banker IS an incubus
upsn the taxpayers. His bank is no
more Essential" than the falsehoods con.
tanned in the letter of "Senex."
"Senex" says of the Kissing of Gene.
raj RICHARDSON'S rame in the Demo-
cratic Congressional Convention:
.'He to-day Misses Gen. RICHARDSON,
when his name is presented in Democrat
ic Copyention-.he man who generously
and bravely stopped with his revolver the
angry mob"
That refers to Negro we brought
home from the army in 1863. There was
no danger Of the Negro being harmed
There was little harmless talk. Gen.
was not confronted by q
mob. There was no mob. Gen. RICH.
ARDsoN had no revolver. And, finally,
aSenex" isguilty of downright falsehood,
as dozens in " oodsfeld will testify.
In nconciusion: ave think the efforts Of
the press should be towards good"
just SO long as such silly, brainless
fellows as the editor Of the Messenger and
"Senex" are allowed to publish their
ssnseless efusions in public prints, just
SO long will 'the efforts Of the press to-
wards good" prove unavailing.

"Barefaced SCoundrelisrn. ;,

Senator Sherman has called down on
his head the malediction of the New
York Tribune for declaring in his Hills
5oro' speech, that according to law the
outstanding $40 bonds are payable in
greenbacks. This the Tribune charac-
terizes as "the most barefaced scoundrel-
ism that ever provoked the general scorR
of mankind"
The Republican leaders are having a
lively time among themselves on the f..
naucial question. Meanwhile, the peo-

RADICAL CAMPAIGN SONG;

All hail the Haunting lie!
The stars grow pale and dim;'
The stripes are bloody scars
A lie, the vaunting hymn.
1t shields pirates deck,
It binds man in chains,
1t yokes the captive's neck,
And wipes the bloody stains.
Tear down the Haunting lie!---
Half-mast the starry flag! Is
Insult no sunny sky,
With hates polluted rag!
Destroy it ye who cant
Deep sink it in the waves!
1t bears fellow-man,
To groan with fellow-slayes.
Furl, furl the boasted lie!
Till Freedom lives again.
To rule once more in truth,
Among untrammeled mem
Roll up the starry sheen,
Conceal the bloody stains;
For in its folds are seen
The elank of rusting chains!

Prosecuting to the Death.

When men are in the hands of Justice
or are in peril Of their lives before any
tribunal, a true gentleman seeks 10 curb
forocious feelings, and to bespeak hum.
bly, and meekly, that Gods will and the
decree Of the law be done. In this view,
We would not like to have upon our con-
science the responsibility of the course
that was pursued by certain bloody min
ded partisans in the case of Milligan and
Bowles. As noble admonition against
indulgence of the sa sanguinary feeling that
in politics calls for the life Of brother,
we append the following from the World:
When that accursed instrument Of tyr
amy, military commission, sentenced
certain citizens of Indiana to death, and
Mr.. Lincoln meant to save them, there
was presented to him. to overcome his
scruples, this bloodthlrsty document:
WASHINGTON, Feb 3, 1865.
HIS Eccellency the President of the U. s:
SIR: The undersigned, members of
Congress from the State of Indiana, in
behalf of the loyal people of the State,
respectfully but earnestly protest against
any commutation of the sentence of
the military commission against the In
diana conspirators recently tried by it,
and against any interference, in any man
ner or form, with that sentence.
H. s. LANE,
SCHUYLER CoLrAx,
Speaker H. r. U. s.
GODLovE S. ORTIZ,
GEO. w. JULIAN.
A few months after this wolf.howl, the
Supreme Court of the United States de-
cided that Milligan and Bowles could not
be harmed by this drum head sentence,
Tor which MIR. Smller Colfax and his coad-
tutors had yearned. One by one these
men who hunted innocent blood are meet
ing their deserts, and to the lengthening
list Mr.. Smiler Colfax has not long to
90 ere he be added.

AUGUSTA August 26.-Further in.
vestigation in. the interior Of the State
shows increased hostility to the Radical
Congressional ticket by the laboring
masses. The lumber booms are almost

Of their occupation, and their votes will
be generally thrown for the, Seymour
