From the Albany Argus.
There is no man in the United States
who is so much distrusted. There is no
man who is regarded with SO much inter-
est. The people look on him as one who
has flung character to the winds. and they
are curious to see how far and how long
he can get on without character or without
even the pretense of character. He is
fond OF haunting rebels, but they have him
at disadvantage; they never stole any
thing: He is fond of haunting rebels, but
they have him at a disadvantage; they
had real convictions. He is fond of taunt-
ing rebels. but they have him at disad-
vantage; they put up their lives and all
tor the things they believed, and going
INTO public life poor. emerged poorer and
without dishonor. He is fond of haunting
rebels, but they have him at an advantage:
nobody believes they are for sale. He is
fond OF haunting rebels, but they have him
at disadvantage; nobody says, They
are smart, but no dependence can be
placed on them" A performer without
conscience or respect, Mr.. Blaine is the
most brilliant exponent Of the venality of
a yenal party in a venal age, and that is
all he is.

ing practical Investigations into the
usefulness of the coal found by Prof.
Bibikov in Richmond County Geor.
gia. He gives the result OF his in

guage:
at burns well in stoves and open
CRATES, with no more kindling than is
required for hard coal.
1t needs no quicker replenishing
than other coal, and makes good

1t will not do for blacksmit h's
work.
Very soon it will be tested "a a gas

that it's the same kind as is used by
the railroads in Colorado and other
Western States.
Several OF our citizens state that it
is identical with that used in South.

1t appears from the above that
Prof. Bibikov has really made valu
able disco, cry; and the laugh is, very
agreeably for us, turning upon those
who ridiculed him, for the lignites

Georgia, and may, in view of the re
cent discoveries, become source of
incal culuble wealth to us.
Let the investigation be encourag-
ed by all means.

Those Hound Pups.

MI. j. t. Butler of Edgefe)d is
exhibiting q pack of hounds in Hide
Park New York to show their thor
ough training and com plete subjec.
tion to his will.
He says his object is to make
enough money 10 pay his trav.lin g
expenses, and prove to the people of
II e North that these bloc hounds, of
which so much has l,cn raid, will
catch or tree runaway without doing
any injury to them.
1t is very certain that the South
owes no thanks to Mr.. Butler for
championing their cause by such ex-
hibitions. lie is only giving force to
p:' ture SO easily drawn in the fer
tile and imaginative minds of the
people of,he North, who are so ready
to believe evil Of s:s, and IS suggesting
very acceptable campaign argu-
ment for Republican politicians.
The South needs no vindication on
ihis source. Hunting iugitives wi tn
dogs was rarely heard of. Our people
as class fropned down all cruelty
to slaves. The best proof of this is
the fac. that in 1854 un,ler Gov.
Manning's administration two white
men, Motley and Blacklelse, were
hung Mt Waterford for hunting
down and killing slave in this way.
But the North will find it con veni.
ent to take q different view, aud their
imagination will be stimulated by
Mr. Buffers exhibition.
1t matters not that he represents
nothing but himself, all idle enthusi.
asst, bent on little sport AMI gain.
His pastime will be taken as an indi.
cation of Southern taste, and will be
construed to our damage.
For the good Of our people we wish
that such men would always stay at
home, or at least keep their pups
there.

Conkling's Speech.

adroit Republican politician at the
ACADEMY of Music in Brooklyn last
week. Henry Ward Deecher and
Rev. w. w. Hicks. who was made so
much of i'll Charleston u few years
ago, also spoke.
Conkling made telling speech,
and was smart enough to put his side
in q very favorable light, but Mr..
Lamar's opinion Of his lack of
vcracity seems to be verified by most
o! his asse tions.
Mr.. Conkling says: "When the
war was over the Nation displayed
the most marvellous, the grandest
magnnnimity in history
This is libel upon the nations of
the earth. The South never asked
anything and was willing to be trsat-
cd as conquered province.
But where was the boasted magma
nimity?
Instead of this the nation did every
thing in it's power to humiliate and
degrade its prisoners Of war, t he
South. The reconstruction acts show
that, for by them we were placed
under the basest scounIrcls, who
prcycd upon our very vitals and
brought us to the brink of ruin. Mr.
Conkiiry's expressions in his speech
of as,ncere desire for the prosperity
Of the South are, therefore, nothing
more than bald hypocrisy. Again. does
