Mr. Folaoia gave au lutereetiug »k«lcU of Mr. xcliue, tbe old slave trader of tbe Wanderer, who, he says, celebrated hU seventieth birthday re cently In Oolumbai, Ga., where he lleea. Aa ooa nf the Invited goa*t*. be could hardly do lets lhau In write pleaaaul thing* about lb* old man. aud as a graplilu writer of light literature, he felt eouetraluad In make tit* old man a hern It possible. The pressure of U|e press for sunbathing new aud atertliug Is very great, aud aomeltmea these bubaoilau galley slaves have lo Ignore facta and daal In fancies. Mr. Folioui says tlial this old veteran baa boon an l<up iriaut factor la Geor gia's progrea*, that among other nota ble act* and dead* b« took an active part In oer war with the Creek Indian* and m removing them to the Indian territory, and tbat n« waa a promoter In the bonding of the old Monroe rail road (new the Mncou aud Western.) Well, now, thin old man mull liavn beep a v»ry lively youth aud uuuaaally precorlue, tor ihoan Indian* fought lh-ir last (Uhl to 18.13 and surrendered and. war* at onoe wu to lha territory Mr. McGee was than Juatrlue years old Tim Monro* railroad fr.inj Maoou to Fonylh waa built In HHJ, alien tliia young man waa Ufteeu years old. Pro bably he toted water for tlie buy* or perhaps It* forgot, and It waa hi* fatb ar who did these big thing*. Dul all tbl* amount* to nothing. Tbe impor taut pervialon of Stale history la bla declaration that a large and Influential portion Of tbe good cinr ui of Georgia gave couutsnaiiue lo and aco-iiragr-d the Ventura of Ilia ‘•Wanderer” In bringing slave* here from Africa. Be eaii't prove tbl* hr any respectable clllz-ii now living. That slave trade was under the ban of all good people Georgia Wa* the Brat Stats that pro hibited It. This was done la 1706, winch was ten ye->r« before Congress abolished It. and from than until tbe lata war no reapoctable oltlteu over thought of trying to evade the law Oeorgla waa and still Is proud of her record on this sui jrct, aud would be proudnr still If tlie "Waodertr” hud never lauded a cargo on our crasr. Mr. McGee seem* quite boastful of Ills success In reaping a harvest of blood luon.y nut of this horrible ho*men 8evrn hundred human creatures thrust In the hold of the vrisel, packed in like bogs and dy'ng hy scorns of heat, suff ering from suffocation, tilth and home sickness oa the long voyage aud their carcasses thrown overboard lo tbe tula's. All this Mr. McGee trlU—and that they made a second eoyags with similar horror* and similar result*, and bow be pocketed $10,000 from each cargo. Conscience doe* not seem concerned as yet. John Newtnu, the composer of tbe sweetest hymn ever sung, waa once a slave trader, but re pented under John Wealev’a pro- clung aiid never ceased to repent, and express his gratitude when be wrote.* “ \'ruling graoe—How iwwt ibc ounJ — That save! m arruiei Uk»- mo Ami when old and Intlrni hit Irlwdi Lea god him to quit pouching and rent. Ha said, “No, no ! Shall Umi old slave trader it op preaching aa long aa he can walk or talk ? Nu t" Evan in Sa vannah, where Charley Lamar lived, who who the trader and part owner o< the Wanderer, Geuetnl Henry K. Jack eon, aa United States attorney, pur sued the caplnlu and crew and owners with unrelenting diligence fur two yewra, but tbe free use of Uiie blo-i! money In come war defeated bit pur poees. Aak him if title slave trade was ever favored or winkad at by the good people of Georgia. So tar from It, there .wern »t that time and pm vlono many good men who with Chief Justice Lumpkin at tbelr head, were trying to formulate a scheme of grad ual emancipation on Henry Clay's plan. Another fact remains that all lb* anl*-citir*ns know to be true. The dealing In slaves aa a trade or Cofeaaion to Georgia Wat aodsr the n of public oplriiua. They wmr* not altogether socially oitraolsed, but they, lost Ihwlr place, if they over bad any. “Who Is that man that is strutting around town ? “Why, he Is a nigger trader. ” and that answer settled his status. His society was nut wanted by good people. No doubt some of Umm were olever men and hnnesl. but the presumption was that they were hard hearted and of as easy onnaelenoe General Forrest was a negro trader, It Is said, and no doiiU whs respectable and reputalile, but nobody ever ac cused him of having high moral senti ments or emotions. HU war record It splendid and there was nu discount on his ability or hie pstrlntlem. jow wiib iransrar or negro savages from the Jungles of Africa to a clvl Uved countrr w •« tin doubt a Mossing to tliero. but it war against lb* lasra of Georgia and (lie United Slates and the agreement of all tho great powers acrtws tba sees. an.I the mods and method* of It wer» horrible. My. Mo Gee says that many of them died from grief at bring boro from tlwir li»mr and country. I well ran.ember teslas scum of them at work In Criooal Mott's gaydaa In Odurobut. and my heart bled for them then, for they looked forlorn and miserable.

Now tha historians and newspaper men of this generation aaonot write Intelligently nr oorrer.tly of live events of ante britum days, and it keeps tha old usen bosy In defending the Slate and her people fmm misrepresentation Eyen our own ahlldivo haw to be mid over sad nwr again Imw wv used to live aod what waa the true letalloo of Southern masters U> Ibelr slaves I remember wlwn It Was the Mr .a veal loceatlw to good Wiseloe for a mas ter to toll hit Shies “If you don't ho have belter nod da better ( will tarn yn over to • nigger trader and he will take you off and sell you." Mr. McGee told Mr. Fnlaom that Ibe tiegroea ooat them a dollar or two •plena In Congo—paid for In trinket*— and they eokl Uiem for 6000 or 1700 apiece wben they got them here. That wae a good profit If there l* do blood money to be ooonted In beeves -no dlaoooot for murdnr by alow sod horrible degrees.
