that the conqueror was too powerful
to be successfully resistedbythe south.
1t was the duty of Georgia and of the
other states, to keep aloof from poll.
les. and attend to the development Of
their internal resources. This was
all that could be done at present. 1t
was useless for the south 10 attempt
to take controlling part in the poll

stand, such action would only delay

firmly convinced, and intended to
live and die believing Georgia and
her sister states would again he pros
porous, free and sovereign. Unless
this was again the case the republic
was failure. But there were great
numbers of frcemen in The north who
sympalhizc with us They would
never submit to be deprived of their
liberties, and when they felt the dan
ger at home they would then need the
south. Thus by Quitely holding alooi
the south could become a political
balance of power on this continent.
This desired result would be accom-
plished by waiting until they were
divided ut the north, and then it
would be the best policy of the sonth
to act with the party having the best
candidate and the best platform.

GREELEY IN THE SOUTH

Enthusiastic Reception at Rail
way Stat atlonS-An Old Lady ka
Aluxes the Philosopher.
Horace Greeley passed down from
Louisville through Humboldt Satur-
day night, en- route to New Orleans
and Texas. He is accompanied by
four or five sbrewd fellows, whose
identification with railroad aud other
jobs eXcites the suspicion that Hor-
races lecture is an empty sham, and
that his purpose in visiting Texas, is
to hole share or two OF stock in
some grand scheme ofrailway specu
lation. Such, doubtless, is the pur-
pose of Greeley's friends. He comes
along innocenlly enough; no donbi
his primary purpose IS to see the
South and Southern people in their
own homes, at their own iireside, and
net as painted by Phillips and Beecher
and others, who know no more OF us
than we do of the people of Main and
Madagascar 1t is needless to say
that Mr. Greeley is cordially greeted
everywhere. Whenever the telegra oh
tells the people of his coming, they
gather in crowds at railway stations.
| aud are all anxious to see and greet
and. shake the hands of the curiouslv
unique philosopher Of the Iribune
He wears greasy broad brimmed
straw hat, and venerable brown sack
coat. brown with years and dust. The
hat brim slants backward and down
ward, and from beneath it protrudes
the fully-exposed broad high fore
head of the erratic but honest optim
ist of the Tribune. At Bowling Green
he was welcomed by great throng.
Among the multitude was fat old
country dame of Greeley's age-say
sixty summers. She asked anxiously
for Horace. tsOh! whar is he," she
exclaimed, "He and my father and
my old man were alters Wings to-
gether, and l must see him." Mr..
Greeley was pointed ont. The heavy
brigade in petticoats made a charge,
and Horace went down. He was
hugged and kissed, the old hat was
smashed, and the greasy coat vel
sanded, and Horace almost crushed
to death. The crowd enjoyed the
collision no little, and we only feal
that the story will go North tha

Kentucky dame, and Grant may bt

it.-Ne5nplis appeal.

diation of the national debt. No
naiion," he said, "has ever yet paid
any large public debt without repudi-
alton. The debt contracted i'll the
Revolutionary War was nearly all re
pudiate6, and we have no right to
make the present debt permanent.
He proposed that the payments OF
interest, instead of being applied on
that account, should be reckoned as
so much paid on the principal, and in
this way the whole deb: could be
wiped out in sixteen years. This is
rather long period for such an oper-
alton. What is the use of protract-
ing it to such an extent? While you

THE Democracy Of Ohio held their

Never have we felt SO confident Of
victory in this State after Democrat

people of Ohio cannot be deceived BY
such dodge. In fact we don't be

THE REGIONS TO BE DRAINED.

lI1E hE0lONO Az DE- HhhiNEbs
With direct and unbroken line of
communication between the Ohio river
and the Atlantic seaboard, the whole West
bordering on lines tributary to the connec-
tion would be emptied Of its products by
quick and cheap mode of transit to an
eager market. The States that would be
so affected are West Virginia, Kentucky,
Tennessee, Arkansas, Ohio, Indiana, Hi
nois, Michigan, Wisconsin, Minnesota,
Iowa, Missouri, Kansas, Nebraska, Daco-
tab, Montana and Colorado. 1t is even
believed that the products. of the Red river
aud Saskatchewan valleys, in British
America, would find market through
this channel. The States and Territories
mentioned comprise an area of 1,228,795
square miles, and in 1860 had IL 1,945, ,597
inhabitants, and in the valley of the
Saskatchewan there are IL 100000 acres
of areable land of the best quality.
By striking the Ohio river the canal
would tap the Mississippi and Missouri
through it, reaching st. Paul and Omaha.
1t would tap Lake Erie at Cleveland and
Toledo by the Ohio canal and the Miami
canal, and Lake Michigan by the Illinois
and Michigan canal, making the connec-
tions, of course, by the use of the Ohio and
Mississippi rivers.
NO INTERRUPTION TO NAVIGATION.
During period of twenty years the
only interruption to navigation on the
canal between Richmond and Lynchburg
was, by ice, S02 days, an, average of Is
days to each year. In 1866 it was i'm
peded IS days, the next year 56 days, but
during ten years of the twenty there was
not single days interruption.
ONE GREAT UNDERTAKING BY CONGRESS.
Virginia really offers the government
property worth $l2,000000 if the latter
will expend $26, 900, 900 to make it valua-
BILE beyond any amount that may be laid
out. She has emerged from the war Grip
pied and MANNED in every way except in
national resources. She has given her all
in this matter, and will besupremely great
as State in the Union If Congress will
grant this appropriation of money to com
plete the canal. She would draw into her
interest all the surrounding influences and
make the West go through her territory
and benefit her in emptying itself of its
products There is no question of this,
nor that the completion of the canal
would greatly benefit the whole country in
many ways.

Collection Of Tdres.-The act supple
mental to the act providing for the collection
of the State revenue and county levies for the
year 1870, declares "that the sheriffs of this
Commonwealth, and other officers heretofore
charged with the collection of taxes, whose
term of office expired on the 3lst day of De-
cember, 1870, are authorized and directed to
proceed with the collection of the State reve-
nue. and county levies, which have been or
may be assessed for the year 1870, in like man
ner as the same have heretofore been collected :
provided, that it shall be the duty Of each
county or corporation judge to examine the
bonds of such sheriff or other officer within his
Jurisdiction, and If he deem it necessary, re-
quire such sheriff or other officer to execute a
new bond in such penalty and with such Sc.
curities as he may deem sufficient: provided,
that such penalty shall not be less than double
the amount which may go into the hands of
such sheriff or officer"
This action was deemed necessary from the
fact that several judges of the State had made
decisions declaring that the existing sheriffs
had no power to collect the public revenues as
the law then stood.
