WESTERN CORRESPONDENCE. Memphis Tenn., May 11, 1867. Dear Enquirer :?According to promise, we pen you a few notes of travel. We arrived at Chester on Monday morning, but finding the schedule changed, we had to remain there until the inconvenient hour of 3 o'clock, Tuesday morning. Mr. Nicholson accommodated us with a bed, on which we took sweet repose, until the train waked us in good time to go on board for Columbia. The wheels ?all worked well, and we were soon at the burnt city. We were sony to learn, as we passed, that the fine college building, in Winnsboro', had been burned down on Sunday evening. Some young men had been smoking while lying on their beds? then went out and locked the door. The fire which had caught the bed clothes, unknown to the careless smokers, now took its course. On arriving at Kingsville, we fell in with Dr. Dargan, whose company made our journey more pleasant. . At Aiken, a large, well-dressed man stepped into the car. There was soon a momentaiy turning of many sullen eyes upon him, and low, gram voices were heard all through the cars, "That's [Senator Wilson, of Massachusetts." This.distinguished Congressman rode with us to Augusta, where he was to make a speech to the loyal citizens and rebels of that city, the next day. He is rather a fine looking Yankee, whose size and figure are somewhat like. Governor Orr's, but his face differs from the Governor's, just as most Yankees differ from Southerners. We were much cheered on seeing a beautiful little village of yellow, sharp-top cottages, some few miles before we reached Augusta. They were arranged much after the order of a camp of soldier's tents. On the right of the road was a large building going up. We learned that this was a large factory on the way, and the village was for the habitation of the employees. It is a grand affair, and is known as the Kalmia Mills Factory. We remained an hour or two in the beautiful city of Augusta, Georgia. We used to think that our own capital was the prettiest town in the world, but there are others as handsome, and Augusta is one of that class. We took the train for Atlanta at 9-o'clock, p. m., and soon, half standing, half sitting, half lying, and half sleeping, we were borne onwarc through the darkness. The sleeping cars are a great humbug to those who cannot afford to buy a berth for the night When we came to ourself next morning, it was just in time to look out and see the Stone Mountain, like a huge tortoise, overwhelmed in morning light. It is a sublime scene, but cannot compare in grandeur with Carolina's Table Rock. Soon we were at Atlanta. Here ray heart stirred within me when I saw the city (in ruins? No!) blooming as the rose, alive with energy and improvement Those ruins have been blottkl out? .not from the page of history?but from the classic spot where the city stands. A beautiful, new city has risen, as if by magic, from those ruins. Oh! what can energy and hope not accomplish ? Ashes and salt are good fertilizers, 'l'lus city, twelve months ago, was planted in the ashes of the old, and the moist, briny sweat that dropped lrom the brow of industry, has made Atlanta flourish like a tree by the river. At the beginning of the war, Atlanta numbered fifteen thousand inhabitants; when Sherman burned the city, it numbered about twenty-five thousand. Soon after the surrender, twenty-five hundred of the citizens came back and sat down in the ashes, clothed in sackcloth ; now, in less than two years, it numbers twenty-five thousand inhabitants again. From Atlanta to Chattanooga, we had scenery, saddening, yet sublime. All along were burnt villages and breast works, ditches and mountains, rivers and valleys. The prettiest fanning lands we have seen, lie along the railroad between the Allatoona Mountains and Chattanooga. Chattanooga is'a romantic place. In a fiat basinlike valley, is a rugged city with about ten thousand inhabitants. The high mountains form a circle off in the distance, and the smaller ones and the hills stand around in the suburbs. One of these smaller mountains is Missionary Ridge. Sitting in the lap of this famous battle-mountain, is a round sloping hill, surrounded by a new stone wall. This'is the National Cemetery for Federal soldiers. About dark we entered the train bound from Chattanooga to Memphis. Grand and awful was the scenery which drove sleep from our eyes that night Perpendicular walls of solid rock and mountain brushed one side of the train, while far beneath, on t*e other side, flowed the winding Tennessee River. The moonlight glanced from the mountain tops down into the river, while we roared along on its banks in the dark shadow of the mountain. It was this that made the place "sweet and awful." At sunrise next morning, we were at the fair old town of Tuscumbia, Alabama. From this point we passed on over the low lands of Northern Alabama and Mississippi, until we came to Corinth, which is still surrounded by ditches and other fortifications. Thence we moved on into Tennesssee, and were soon rolled into Memphis. We are still in this labyrinth. We have not had time yet to wander about much and get lost But this is a city indeed. While walkingone of the streets yes* 1 J _ j x J r leruay, we looaea aowu a cross street ana saw, lor the first time, the Mississippi River. We were not as polite to its majesty as was the Rev. Dr. Richard Fuller, of Baltimore. He said in a Missionary address last night, that the first thing he did on arriving in Memphis, was to go to the river and lift his hat to this mighty stream. The Southern Baptist Convention was in session when we arrived, Dr. P. H. Mell, of Georgia, in the chair. A large delegation is in attendance from all the Southern States. The meeting, so far, has been harmonious and deeply interesting.? Many eminent ministers are here, such as Dr. Fuller, of Baltimore, Dr. Sampson, of Washington City, and a host of others. More anon. G. SWINDLERS BY MAIL. There are doubtless but few of our readers who have not. since the close of the war, received "confidential printed correspondence from A B. Thimblerigger. or C. D. Gammon, or E. F. Hoax, or some other equally responsible individual in the great city of New York or its suburbs, enclosing tickets calling for prizes of various kinds and values, from a gold watch to a plantation or a city mansion, ana promising to send the said valuable prize or the title to it, on jreoeipt of the price of the ticket, which is only $10 or $5, or in some rxtcnaf* a*\1(* AAnfa TKa ^AllAtmn? Av\m n 1 ofn uwca vu\y u\j wuuj. j ut ivuvniug uuui u iuw New York paper gives a good insight into the manner in which this swindling by mail" business is carried on: Some months since Postmaster Kelly shut down upon all swindlers known to be such. This step, it was hoped, would have some effect in deterring them from making use of the United States mails to carry on their .illicit business. Such, however, has not been the case. Lottery, Soldiers' Home, Orphan Asylum? gift and other schemers continue to flood the country with their circulars and tickets, and impose upon '~e unsuspecting. One unacquainted with this branch of swindling would be surprised to learn how extensively it is carried on. A single monthly journal published here has alone received, Since the firet of January, upward of a thousand letters of inquiry from subscribers to whom these bogus circulars have been sent The practice most in vogue among the gift jewelry swindlers is to send a lithograph letter, marked private, to everybody, offering them their sole agency for the place, with the promise of a valuable watch or something of the kind, on condition that they accept the agency and forward five dollars, more or less, for theaccompanying ticket. These letters are generally written upon a sheet of paper containing a large engraving of what purports. to be their place ot business. For example, one 'firm' have their name (on paper) spread across the entire front of a building- on JBroauway, while their "'grand establishment consists of iust one dingy room at the top of the building and a small tin sign at the foot of the lower stairs. This "firm" offers through the mails to supply watches" worth all the way from $35 to $G5 for $5.' Another firm, located in the!? circular at No. 120 Broadway, promise, on the receipt of $12, to return immediately a watch worth from $100 to $275, according b 1 to the number of the ticket forwarded. We might continue to enumerate numerous other enterprises of this kind, located here, in Williamsburg, Philadelphia, Bevans, N. J., Flatbrookville, N. J., and other points. They offer "genuine" or gift jewelry, ink and washing compounds, works of art, sewing machines of an "improved pattern," doctors' recipes?in short, any and everything which will be apt to tempt the unsuspecting portion of the public. The Postoffice Department cannot, of course, head them off beyond forbidding them the use of office boxes. The authorities, however, have it in their power to bring them to untimely grief, and they should proceed to do so. Boston has just set us a good example to follow, in punishing the' 'Harris Brothers." These parties, whoever they are, have been flooding the country for months with circulars of their Soldiers' Orphan Home Schema, offering newspapers, sewing machines, &c., &c., as premiums to all who would forward the "good work." The Boston authorities have now, now- < ever^ brought their "charitable enterprise" to an end, and imposed a fine of $14,000 upon them as common swindlers.?Mercury. From the Richmond Enquirer. , AN ADDRESS DY HORACE GREELEY. 1 "r"r ^ i "n \t \r i_ m *i .Horace u-reeicy; nsq., 01 tne i>. lorx irumne, addressed, by invitation, a meeting at the African Church last night He disavowed, in the presence of the writer on yesterday afternoon, having given his consent to deliver such an address prior to the announcement of the fact in the newspapers. A large audience had assembled to greet him, aod Mr. G. proceeded to deliver a lengthy address, which was attentively listened to, and frequently warmly applauded. He announced his intention of speaking frankly and freely, lamented the late war with its rivers of blood and mountains of debt, and asked "shall the sword devour forever?" The wise king had said "there was a time for war and a time for peace." Two years since, the shock of war ceased to resound through our land: was it not time that onr distracted country was blessed with peace, not a hollow mockery, but real peace ? for peace which was not unity and concord, was not peace? To a true peace it was essential that each party should be brought into harmonious union witn its late antagonist What had prevented the advent of peace? % L The assassination of President Lincoln in the very hour (^national triumph. He knew and insisted that it was not the crime of any but the few who were engaged in it, but it was still the dictate not of personal but of political passion. The murderer and his accomplices were thoroughly, madly sympathetic with the Southern cause ana its upholders, and bore no ill will to the man Lincoln, but on the nationality which he represented, and the murderous blow was aimed not at a man but at principle and a cause, and evoked a burst of wild and passionate grief and wrath from a stricken people. Was it strange .that reason was for a ti me dethroned, and that blind, indiscriminate passion rendered millions for a time deaf to every suggestion of mercy and charity? TJhe melancholy military .trials wnich senred to feed the popular rage without appleasingit, were a true exponent of the feelings of the North, which demanded hectacombs of victims and rivulets of blood. Before this frenzy had time to cool, the Southern Legislatures chosen under the President's reconstruction plan, began to assemble, to manifest the vitality of the rebellion, and subject colored t people to invidious and absurdly tyranical legislation. It was necessary onlv to glance at acts which prescribed one law for tne whites and anoth- 1 er for blacks, in relation, first, to migration; sec- c ond, to voting; third, to apprenticeship; fourth, t to marriage ; tilth, to testimony; sixth, to keeping a arms: ana he would allude only to the subjects of arms-Dearing and testimony. No reasonable man ever objected to the restriction of the use of arms by the free blacks while most of their race among us were slaves; but the reason failing, the law failed with it There being no more slavery, there was no more reason nor iustice in restricting the use of arms among the blacks, and a needlesss restriction was an act of tyranny. When, in pursuance of laws Eassed by what were virtually Confederate Legisttures, or, at least, legislatures composed of Confederates, Union soldiers, honorably discharged at the close of the war, were robbed of their noblvearned muskets and pistols by Confederate soldiers, now paroled prisoners of,war, but acting as State or municipal police, how could it be expected that the North would bear it? As to testimony, he thought it but right that all evidence should be received by .a jury for what it was worth; but when legislatures enacted that the testimony of blacks, although good against each other, should not be received against whites, it was arrant injustice. The absurdity of such a perversion of legal machinery to degrade and insult a race whose very humility should shield them from such an outrage, was apparent; yet luost of the Confederate States, and Virginia among them, had enacted and re-established such laws. ^The animus of those wrongs was sh^wn in the tragedjies of Memphis and New Orleans; but in regard to those painful massacres, he would only say that there was no more excuse in either case for killing i the blacks, than was furnished by them in the late riots in Richmond. How could the North inter- . pret these aets of hostility to the blacks otherwise v tknr. no ?lia /inmmonMmont. np nrnr ntriinuf tlmm I t IUUU do tub wu4u1vuwu1vuw v* vuv?m It was urged that the North was in honor bound e to emancipate the slaves : which was true, but on- c ly half the truth, as the South was equally bound F to see that they henceforth enjoyed perfect freedom. At the outset of the war the sympathies of the slaves were with their masters, but when they c learned that Union meant freedom to them they in- ^ evitably became partisans of the Northern cause, 8 and foraged and scouted and fought for iLrichly ? earning the gratitude of every loyal heart He admitted the fact and gloried in the obligation to see [ that they did not suffer for their fidelity to that 1 cause, but thought that the Southern people owed j them an equal right. The blacks might have an- ] I ticipated their freedom, but they chose generally i to remain with rather than desert the families of c their masters. Hundreds and thousands who * rushed to the battle-field left their wives and children to the guardianship of faithful slaves, very t few of whom proved unfaithful to the trust, and 1 he thought that the Southern whites should look f back on the conduct of the blacks during the war ? i as kindly as should the people of the North, and \ if this were so, had the resistance made at the i South to the full cnfrancisement of the blacks \ been wise, just or considerate ? To the arguments F in regard to tneir ignominious degradation, he ? woula reply that when ignorance and degradation ? were made grounds for the disfranchisement of r whites, then, but not otherwise, they might be plausibly applied to the blacks. e There were peculiar reasons why the equal 1 rights of the blacks should be fully conceded and * placed under the shield both of State and Federal jinstitution. His countrymen of African lineage were a peculiar, and must in many respects remain j a distinct people. ^ They were and must be the objects of peculiar c antipathy to many, and were constantly decliniuir f in numerical importance, for whereiis they formed J, in 1790 one-fifth of our population they now numbered but one-eighth, and would soon be less than e a twentieth, not because they would diminish in H numbers, but because the whites would increase j more rapidly A deluge of European immigration was constant- * ly dashing on our shores at the rate of 250,000 per 1 annum, mainly in the prime of life and lusty man- a hood. On the oilier hand, there was no immigra- r " ? .1 A- L. iL. tion ol Atncans, nor was mere ii&ciy w ue, us me j black race had never been known to pass out of the c torrid zone unless dragged out. We were more likely to lose than to gain blacks by immigration, ? and hence it was certain that they would Deconie yearly a less potent element in our population.? j Their equal rights, therefore, as American citizens must be secured now, while North and South have a reason to feel their obligations, or they never will t be. . I >? y Miracles in Compound Interest.?The clcv- J. or gentleman in Paris who discovered a method of t spending money, and yet receiving it again?a res- t urrection of capital?have found an English interpreter, who enthusiastically recommends co-opera- 1 tive societies to adopt the system. It is simple 8 enough. Suppose you expend ?100 with a co-op- a erative society, of course paying cash. Out of this r the society sets apart ?6 5s. for investment, of 5 course at compound interest, and calculates that in C fifty-nine years it will be able to repay you or your r heirs the ?100 you expended. Our pamphleteer . puts a suppositious case to show how this would work. A man married at twenty-five, spends $300 v a year regularly with the society, dies at sixty. By 1 the time ne is fifty, his "obligation warrants" will I cancel his annual expenditure" enabling him to in- C vest his whole income, and after his death the so- ^ ciety will give his widow a comfortable income for twenty-five years more. "If," savs this financial a enthusiast, it could be insured that such a system should be pursued through generations, a grandfather's expenditure might, after having procured his son a life income, actually serve for the y support of his grandson"?which certainly sounds rather like a paradox, and appears to lead to the conclusion that the more the grandfather spent the better off would the grandson be. Nothing dies) says the French originator of the scheme; every thing is renewed?even money. Be prodigal/ in youth, and you will die a millionaire. Perhaps il is cruel to remind the promulgators of this beautiful theory that there is a limit to the possibility ol investment at compound interest Arithmetic-assures us that if Adam had invested a farthing al five per cent, compound interest, it ought by this time to have grown to a considerable number oi globes of gold, each as big as our planet NEW HAMPSHIRE AND S. CAROLINA. The New York Herald, of Saturday, says that, in reply to inquiries made by a gentleman of New Hampshire, of Governor Orr, of South Carolina, whether the citizens of the latter State would lohk with ftvor upon the emigration of citizens frotrl the Northern States, possessing small means, whe are sober and irldustrious, and disposed to identify themselves with the South and contribute then means to the promotion of the wealth and general prosperity of the State, &c., the Governor writes that it is a matter of surprise to him that a doubl should be entertained anywhere, as to the desire oi the people of the State to secure the emigration oi farmers from the North and elsewhere. After explaining the peculiar advantages the South possesses for the exercise of Northern capital, enterprise and industry, Governor Orr says: If any of your fellow-citizens desire to emigrate to South Carolina, I would suggest that a reliable man be selected from their midst, who is practical, md sent here for the purpose of making explorations and observations, and if satisfied with the country and prospectSj that he be authorized to rmmhnsa. Tt snen an intelligent, ffentleman should tie sent, I will take it upon myself to see, either in person or through reliable friends, that the fullest opportunity shall be extended to him for making a thorough mvestigation of the subject The class of men to whom you refer is the very population I lesire, and our people desire, to see introduced into ;he State at the present time. That Northern men ind no difficulty in harmonizing with our people, [ may state to you that about one-half of the merihants in this city are men of Northern birth, numbers of whom have come to the South since the var. The largest work-shops and manufactories istablished in tne Northern portion of this State, ire conducted by Northern men, and I may say to wu, with perfect confidence, that an honest man vho devotes himself to his business or profession, whatever it may be, \^11 not only be received, but cindly welcomed by -the people of South Carolina. [ desire to express the earnest hope that you will lse your influence to secure us emigration such as rou have indicated. My word for it, they will have 10 occasion to regret having cast their .destinies imong us. I say this with the more confidence, jecause I have made a personal examination of nostofthe States of the Union?even including rour own granite hills, and I know of no country in ,hese United States where greater inducements are leld out, with comfort ana independence as a revard for industry, than in the State of South Carilina. A Good Order.?The attention of parties incrested is invited to the following paragraph, which ve find in our exchanges: General Carlin has issued a circular ordering all igents of the Freedmen's Bureau to abstain from aking part in political meetings and conventions. Agents who accept nominatiofis for office, he says, ire expected to tender their resignations. gg^Thc workingmen of St Louis petitioned Mayor Thomas to carry out the eight-hour law in lepartwents of the city under his immediate conrot The mayor curtly replied that he required dl persons under his immediate control to work as nany hours as he did.
