FRIDAY NOVEMBER
1873.
rOLHIBl'K
Many of our pi outers are uot aware that
we have a live and successful Orange in
Columbus, that meets every Friday morn
ing at the Ferry House, and to which
every planter should belong. The Gran
ges are destined to work a wonderful
revolution in the control of the Govern
ment, and their united efforts will do
more for the farmers North and South,
than they could noconiplish in an ago
without co-operation. It will afford us
pleasure to give farmers any information
we possess, ou this question : and wo will
gladly give them the blank applications
for membership.
Till; ritKSS ASSOCIATION.
On tlio fifth inst. the Floss Association
of Georgia will meet in this city, and wo
feel Columbus will sustain her well-known
character for hospitality by extending to
the editorial fraternity a cordial welcome.
These gentlemen, representing tho Press
of tho State, must soo our beautiful city
and unrivaled water power before they
leave, and so they will help to spread tho
knowledge of our advantages to the world.
In order to make tho reception a huccohs,
wo propose to call upon so mo of our
prominont citizens, so that, though tho
time be short, we must make the recep
tion a success.
WITHOFT MAIJt'E.
Tho case of young lloopor indicted for
the killing of an old man named Philips
in Opelika, Alabama, was recently
brought up in tho court now in session in
that city, and for reasons doomed suffi
cient by tho Judge, tho trial was transfer
red to tho Russell county court. Tho
reasons urged on tho Judge by tho able
counsel for tho accused woro, tho influ
ence of the Enquires and the Atlanta
Herald in Lee county, nnd tho fact that
those papers by thoir courso during tho
lust six months liavo so prejudiced tho
minds of the people against young Hoop
er that it would bo impossible for him to
have a fair hearing in tho placo, referred
it. Of course this is a legal ruse, for tho
Enquires has a larger circulation in Rus
sell than it has in Lee, nnd wo doubt uot
tho counsel, who very proporly aro using
every effort for thoir client, have somo
motive for tho change other than that
stated.
After young lloopor was admitted to
bail in tho sum of llvo thousand dollars,
we wrote an article strongly censuring a
transaction that looked aH if tho judges
in Loo county sot a very low valuo on an
old man s life, no matter what extenua
ting circumstances might bo urged in tho
coso of the accused. A neighboring jour
nal rotorted in a personal way, and our
readers will romomber that tho Enquires
and ono of tho Opelika papers became
personal, and both in tho boat of tho
mout said bitter tilings. Wo do not know
how tho paper roferrod to thinks of tho
past, but for ourselvos, in n spirit of can
dor, wo Bay from our hearts wo regrot
much that we said, and would gladly wipo
out overy passionato expression uttered
in tho foolish and unfortunate
controversy. Wo novor saw tho dead
man Phillips, never at tho time
had soon tho accused man lloopor, so that
our first expressions, no matter how
strong, wore uttered without a pnrticlo of
malice,|and as wo consider tlio case now
wo forgot tho rancor of tho past and look
at it calmly. We do not choose to recite
facts, so well known to our readers, nor
to venture an opinion on tho result of tho
trial, though wo aro convinced what it
will bo. Every young and impetuous
man with influential friends, who fools
himself aggrieved by an oid man, or any
man, will havo a precedent, should ho
take tho law in bis own hands, and shoot
tho presumed villiflor. No penalty in
criminal cases is supposed by tho law to
bo an atonement for crime ; tho object of
penalties in such cases is to deter others
from committing the same acts. Jh© life
of young lloopor would not atone to tho
world, nor to tho family of the dead man.
for tho wrong done. To exonerate Hoop
er will bo to tell tho world lie lias com
mitted no crime, and so to lower tlio mor
al standard and doprcciato tho value of a
human life. Wo can fully appreciate the
anxiety of tho young man’s friends, ami it
is but- natural that they should strain
every nerve to save him, whom they can
never think as criminal as tho less inter
ested world. Indeed, his very misfor
tunes and presumed danger servo to en
dear him more, as tho day for his convic
tion or acquittal approaches. Wo would
rather soo tho young man saved to rogvot
his crime, and atone for his wrong in a
life of goodness ; but the lesson will bo
bad in its inllucnee, no matter how good
may bo his resolves. It is sad to soo a
young man so situated, and our impulses
aro instinctive to save him ; but wo turn
away, and our eyes fall with equal sorrow
on an old man’s grave, and as wo appre
ciate the terrible efforts of anxious friends
to save young lloopor, wo think of tho
poor old widow, and the desolated
of him whoso life was breathed out in tho
very shadow of the Temple of Justic

full of promise. A more magnanimous nature
never existed on earth, lie was loved and re-
spooled by all who know him, and gained friends
wherever he went. Although not a member of
any religious denomination, liis moral nature was
of the most exalted character; and ho would
