TUESDAY MORNING, Apr. 30.
Decorating tlie Soldier’s Graves.
Friday, April the 2Gth, the first ani-
veraary day for decorating the soldiers’
graves, was observed by nearly all the
ladies of Rome. In consideration of
the present “situation,” it was deemed
inadvisable to have any formal public
demonstration, in the way of proces
sions, speeches, &c., but each individ
ual, who felt disposed to pay a floral
tribute to the memory of those who
gave their lives to the “lost cause,”
went, independently, to the cemetery,
and arranged such flowers as she had
upon the soldiers’ graves.
Flowers are not abundant here at
this season.
‘•It is the month before the month of May,
And spring comes slowly up this way."
. But yet we were glad to notice that
not a single one of these lowly beds was
left entirely unadorned by some fair
hands.
The ladies in this vicinity will be
gratified to ljnow that the day was very
generally observed throughout the
South. In Atlanta, however, this trib
ute was postponed to the ,10th of May —
•rid, we hope in consideration of the
scarcity of flowers, so early as the 26th
of April, in all sections, except the
extreme South, that, after this year,
the 10th of May, the aniversary of
Stonewall Jackson’s death, will be the
day observed.
So far as we have seen notices, the
military nowhere interfered, except at
Memphis, where the commander of the
post prohibited any procession or pub
lic speeches; but, yet allowed the la
dies, in an austentatious way, to deco
rate the soldiers’ graves.
Fine Liquors for Medical Purposes.
Dr. W. D. Hoyt has placed upon our
table a bottle; of pure old rye whisky—
Ccnnoseurs pronouncp it to be of the
very best quality. ■ Gentlemen want
ing something of this kind, that is re
ally fine, had better call soon at the old
store of Yeiser & Reese. Dr. H. also,
has a good assortment of pure drugs
and medicines.
Selma, Rome, & Dalton Roilrood.
Messrs. Rreed, the Lesee, and Bar
ney, the Superintendent of this road,
were in Rome last week, and repre
sent the prospect as good for the early
completion of this important railroad
connection. There is to be a meeting
of the Stockholders in Selma on the
15th of May—when it is expected that
present arrangement^ will be confirmed
and the workmove forward at once.
Opinions of a Union Man.
We publish to-day a letter on the sit
uation, from Ex-Provisional Governor
Perry, of South Carolina. He sets
forth boldly and frankly his honest
convictions of duty under the present
trying ciroumstances. He is a man of
clear head and good heart, whose pre
dictions have hitherto been verified,
and whose opinions are now entitled to
respect.

A Party Platform.
The Savannah Republican says that
the following “has been forwarded to
it” as the “ Platform of the Republican
Congressional P.-rty of Georgia.” It
does not put it under its editoral head
sis its platform, but we preceive that
the Atlanta Opinion does. We therefore
conclude 1 —1st, that this platform has
been extensively circulated by some
persons who feel authorized to make a
platform for the .party, but who they
are, or whence they get their authori
ty; we cannot conjecture; 2d, that it is
acceptable to some, but not to all of the
so-called Republicans. Perhaps there
, is a portion for whom it is not sufficien
tly proscriptive or exclusive. Are not
the Savannah Republican and the Grif
fin Union ot this class?
Here is the platform:
We, the undersigned, members of
the above named party, pledge our
selves, cheerfully, to acquiesce in, and
adhere to, all the requirements set
forth in the Constitution of the United
States, as well as all the acts and reso
lutions passe 1 by Congress, having in
view the reconstructing of the rebel
lious States.
Our Motto:—Equal rights to all (ex
cept those excluded by the acts ot Con
gress) without regard to color.
Our desire:—Is to get back in the
Union, in the shortest possible time,
and on the terms prescribed by Con
gress.
Our anxious and happy Reflections
•re:. That the day is not distant
when the State of Georgia will again
be clothed with' her former greatness,
»nd numbered among the States of the
Union.
Our Emblem:—The “Star Spangled
Banner.”
Our Pledge:—Is to stand by each
other, until the great object is accom
plished we so much desire.

April 27,’67: j
Mr. Dwinkll : Permit me to acknowl
edge, in your paper, the receipt of six
ty-two dollars, from Dr. H. H. Clayton,
of Murfreesboro, Tennessee, for the re
lief of our community. I wrote him
some days ago, giving a plain statement
of the pressing wants of our people,
and he replied: “I received a letter
from you to-day. at 10 o’clock, A. M.,
and at 3 P. M., I send to you sixty-two
dollars, to purchase corn for the suffer
ing of your neighborhood.” Such
letter needs no comment.
Yours respectfully,

A Paralell.
The Macon Telegraph puts in this
rib-roaster:
“A few broken down, fifth-rate poli
ticians, combined with an equal num
ber of Yankee capitalists, have met in
Atlanta and denounced Gov. Jenkins as
lacking in good sense and statesman
ship.
“A party of ragged Loridon news
boys, it is related, being deprived of
the privilege of hawking tbeir wares in
the street to the public annoyance, met
in solemn council and unanimously
adopted the following resolution:
Resolved, That the Lord Mayor is an
ignoramous and a nuisance I’
“The Lord Mayor is supposed to have
been dreadfully hurt in spirit and dam
aged in reputation by this fulmination
from Shin Pone Alley. Gov. Jenkins,
of Georgia, is doubtless equally discon
solate!”
General Beauregard to be Turned Out
of tile New Orleuns, Jackson and
Great Northern Railroad.
A Radical dispatch from Washington
says:
Quite an interesting controversy has
arisen, and is likely lobe submitted to
Gen. Grant for decision, growing out of
an election for Directors of the New
Orleans, Jackson and Great -Northern
Railroad lately held in New Orleans.
On the return of Gen. Beauregard from
the Confederate service his friends ob
tained from the military authorities
possession of the road, and made him
its President. At the late annual elec
tion for Directors the Creole General
formed a ticket of his partisans and had
appointed the judges to hold the elec
tion and declare the result. Under
the act of incorporation the Governor
of the State and Mayor of New Orleans
were each empowered to appoint three
Directors. Subsequently, the Company
being in need, another act of legislation
was passed, authorizing large subscrip
tions on the part of the State and city,
and at all elections since then the Gov
ernor and Mayor have cast their votes
for directors on the 3toc* represented
by them respectively. At this last elec
tion the Governor, Mayor and Union
citizens combined and made a new tick
et for directors, composed exclusively
of Union men. The judges of election
appointed by Beauregard and friends
as above, finding that the votes of the
Governor and Mayor would oust the
Beauregard directory, decided that, le
gally, the said officers had no right to
vote for the State and city. The vote of
Governor and Mayor, if counted, -wouid
have defeated the Beauregard ticket
two to one. The judges of election, by
this exclusion, re-elected the rebel tick
et. The Union people are indignant
over this outrage, a®d intend to appeal
to Gen. Grant for orders directing Gen.
Sheridan to.place the road in the bands
of those fairly elected and friendly to
the Government.
The Georgia Bill of Injunction in the
U. S. Supreme Court.
Washington, April 26.—The -Su
preme Bench was full. Many distin
guished , lawyers present. Mr. Stan-
berry opened. Premising,, he would
treat the question in a legal aspect.-—
Political questions dividing the country
are net to be discussed here, but for*
clear’understanding of the subject, it
necessary to state what the acts of
Congress are of which the States com
plain as working excessive injury, and
depriving them of their constitutional
rights.
IJe explained trie reconstruction
laws, remarking that the States lately
in rebellion have no republican gov
ernment. Congress made provision
to form such governments, capable
of Congressonal repre-seatation.
Narrating , the restoring demanded
by complainants, by stopping Grant,
Stanton, and other highofficera
he maintained that there is nc
case provided for by the Constitution to
come before this court. The controver
sy was not with these men as citizens,
but as high officials, and not therefore
withiu the jurisdiction of this court,
either with rfcason or with the apirit of
the Constitution. * * * The’ in
juries set forth in the complaint were
only con tinges t, and might never hap
pen. In conclusion, he urged that f
was a political case curable only by po
litical remedies, Charles O’Connor fol
lowed. The idea of the complaint was
to show that what was ordered by Con
gress was in length and breadth uncon
stitutional and void. Therefore, the
court ought to order the injunction in
general terms. The Georgia of 1776
was wiped out, and a new Georgia sub
stituted. Georgia occupied a position
m the body politic, arid corporate, and
a court of equity could prevent or re
strain any attempt to divert the purpos
es of its corporation, or a violation of
its charter. He took issue with Stan-
berry’s assertion' that the acts complain
ed of were contingent, and might never
happen. Parties named lh the com
plaint had already taken steps to an
force the laws complained of as uncon
stitutional.
A further hearing was postponed to
next Friday, when Mr. Walker will
plead in behalf of Mississippi; and
Stanberry will close.

The Paris jourriafa assure the public
that there will be no war about Luxem
burg, as a peaceful'solution of the diffi
culty was about to be found.
The Elendard says that it was not to
be affected by’the neutralization of the
Grand Duchy, as such a proposition
would not be accepted on either side of
the Rhine. On the other hand, foreign
correspondents to London journals say
though war may be avoided for the
moment, it is certain to come.
It is said that Bismarck is anxious
for peace and Count Moltke perfers
immediate war, as Prussia is quite
prepared and has three chances to one
over France.
In the Bohemian Dick ninety of the

Strong and Truthful.
We invite attention to the following
paragraph, from the New York Times.
the ablest and among the most widely
circulated Republican journals in the
country :
The confiscation resolutions adopted
at the late meeting of the negroes in
Richmond prove the baneful effect qf
tho political teaching which they re
ceive from the Hunnicuts of the ex
treme Radical party. In the eye of
every truthful man, confiscation admits
of only one interpretation. It is the
equivalent of general spoliation, blood
shed and anarchy. There can be no
liberty without order, and no order
without ample protection for the rights
of property. Invade these rights, and
inculcate tbe idea that one .class shall
be permitted to seize and enjoy trie
lands and houses of another class, and
from that moment the South will be
come a second San Domingo, to end
only in tho extermination of whites or
blacks. This may be a strong state
ment of the case, but it is the truth.—
And the men who go about familiariz
ing the pegros with the demand, and
persuading them ofits justice, should
be dealt with by the military comman
ders as incendiaries.
Dr. J. J. Craven.—The Savannah

Roads, in which besaid there would
be no impediment to Southern Repre
sentatives in Congress if they elected
Union men, etc. Stevens, in his letter,
says no man should make promises for
the party ? By what authority does
any one say that by the election of loy

what authority does he say that Vir

there is no Virginia ? He concludes as
follows: Who is authorized to travel
the conntry and peddle out amnesty ?
I would say to the most guilty, expect
punishment and then quietude;' but
first, a mild confiscation to pay those
who have been robbed by disloyal-men.
These are my wishes, and mine only.—

General Orders No. 10, from the

civil officer using his influence “to dis
suade the people from taking an active
partin reconstructing their State Gov
ernment under the Act of Congress, to
provide' for the riiore efficient govern

zen hears that Gov. Patton takes ad
vantage of the high position to which
be was elected by the free suffrages of

such citizen will at once Send a statement

Mississippi.—It is said Gov. Sharkey ,
of Mississippi, has expressed his inten
tion, should the Supreme Court refuse
to entertain his petition for an injunc-:
tion restraining the execution of the
Military Reconstruction bill, to make
up a case for the indictment and arrest
of Gen. Ord, commander of the 4th
Military District, for treason against the
State' of Mississippi. He is determined
to make the Supreme Court decide the
question, whether agreeable to the
Judges or not, before Congress can get
“a hit,” at him, as he expresses it.
Exactly So.—“Let us reconstruct
under the’Shellabarger bill, and restore
the sway of tbe Oonstitutiori:”
Such is talk, says the Richmond
Enquirer, we hear from some persons.
If merit as the bitterest of irony, we
could understand it. There is not a
human being jn the country, with ca
pacity to fora! an opinion at all, who
pretends that tbe Shellabarger bill is
'constitutional The men Who votAl for
iit do not think so. They are so afraid
to have its constitutionality adjudicat
ed even by a Radical judiciary, that
they seek to drive us away from the
judgement seat by brutal threats of
confiscation. Yet we are to embrace
this unconstitutional thing, as the
means of restoring the Constitution!
The Constitution must be first prostitu
ted and then respected!
The way to restore the Constitution
is to observe it. The way to support
it is to bear no part in its violation.—

Want of Backbone.—The National
Intelligencer says: “Want of nerve is
the curse of tbe hoar. Oar public
men of moderate views have not pluck
to stand by what they believe to be
right. They are overborne by the vio
lence and the energy and bold threats
of the ultraists, and we state but a fact
when we say that half a dozen uncom

of a majority of that body.”
Necro Swindlers.—The Macon Tele

bad men, capable of taking advantage
of their credulity to fill their own
purses without regard to the character
of the means employed. It would be

ance can be bad from old friends and
neighbors that no cheat is intended.

the case of the United States vs. Solo

The Lesson of the Watermill.
Listen to the water-mill!
Through the live-long day;
How the clicking of its wheel
Wears the hours away.
Languidly the autumn wind
Stirs tlie greenwood leaves.
From the field the reapers sing,
Binding up their sheaves;
And a provorb haunts my mind
As a spell is cast—
“Tbe mill cannot grind
With the water<that is past.” .
Autumn winds revive no more
Leaves that once' are shed;
And the sickle cannot reap
Corn once gathered.
And the'ruffled 'stream flows on,
Transmit) deep and still,
Never gliding back again
To the water-mill.
Truly speaks the proverb old,
With a meaning vast—
“The mill cannot grind '
With the water that is past.”
Take the lesson to thyself.
Loving heart; and true!
Golded years are fleeting by,
Youth is passing too
Learn to make the most of life,
Lose no happy day;'
Time will never bring theej'aek
Chances thrown away.
Leave no tender word unsaid,
Love while love shall last—
“The mill cannot grind
With the water that is past.”
Work while the day-light shines,
Man of strength and will!
Never does the streamlet glide
Useless by the mill.
Wait not till to-morrow’s sun
Beams upon thy way;
All that thou canst call thine own
' Lives in thy “to-day.”
Power, and intellect, and health
May not always last—
“The mill cannot grind
With the water that is past.”
Oh, the wasted hours of life
Thathave drifted by!
Oh.fthe good that might have been,
Lost without a sigh!
Love that we might once have saved
By a single word;
Thoughts conceived, but never penned;
Perishing unheard.
Take the proverb to thine heart,
Take, and hold it fast—
“The mill cannot grind
With the water that is past.”
Radical Plans for a Party in the South
The following article from a late
number of the New York World
contains information of a serious fn
terest to the Southern people. There
is no doubt that Radical orators and
Radical money are to be poured into
the South during the present and
coming year, to buy up a party for
the Radicals out of the colored and
“mean white” population.—Forewarn
ed, let our people beforearmed:
‘-A Mission of Magnificence.”—It
may be remembered by bur readers
that, near tbe close of the latesesion
of the House of Representatives,
committee was selected from the Rad
ical members of Congress to conduct
the political campaign in the South
ern States on behalf of the Republican
party. A sub-committee, it is stated
in a recent letter of tbe Secretary of the
Senate to one cf “my two papers—both
daily,” is now fn session in the capitcl
building, the members of which are
working day and night and using fair
means and foul to secure tbe triumph of
Radicalism at the.South. According to
this letter, a secret league has been
formed—a branch, it appears, of the
loyal leagues” in the Northern States,
which did most disreputable as well as
efficient party work during the war,
says tbe writer:
You can scarcely form an idea of
the work already marked out. Books
have been opened which are being rap
idly filled with names forwarded from
the recent' insurrectionary regions,
names include those m accord with
Congress, with thousands of others who
are anxious for information in regard
to the new acts of reconstruction and
for arguments on the living issues of
the day. W henever a Sou’ herner reach
es Washington and is willing to assist
in the restoration Cf his section, be is
invited to the rooms of the committee,
and generally leaves well satisfied with
his experience, and anxious to give the
committee bis best energies. The
amount of information placed at tbe
disposal of the committee by the South
ein Unionists, white and black, will
constitue the basis of the most effective
organization ever known in our country.
It bides fair to be as close aud efficient
as the celebrated Corn Law Leagues of
Great Britain, arid mrich more so, con
sidering its objective point and num
ber of its kindred associations. North
and South, which originated during
the war and are still full of vitality.”
The plan of a campaign, however,
includes something more than the pre
sence of a squad of Radicals at Wash
ington, for “the steady dissemination
of documents, and the equally steady
correspondence between the members
of the executive committee and their
political associates in the insurrection
ary States,” are to be assisted by regu-
moncy for the relief of the starving
people of the South, the amount to be
forwardedto the Grand Masters of the
different States for distribution.

last, in Athens.—At. Intel. ofTitk.
Church Burnt.—We learn from the
Quitman Banner that the Presbyterian
church in the pleasant town of Monte-
cello, Fla., was destroyed by fire on last
Saturday night. The building was a
very neat house of worship, had been
erected a number of years, but in a fine
state of preservation. The fire was
doubtless the work of an incendiary.—
All the Church furniture, including a
valuable melodeon, was destroyed.
flgyA chicken coop, or ark, was re

ducks, turkeys, and geese. The Mont
gomery people are delighted at the foul
invasion.
fgyWhy are good • husbands like
dough ? Becaus e women need them
men by leaders aud teachers of their
own color, and by statesmen 'in whose
patrotism and fidelity they can place
implict confidence. Thus, it will be
seen, an organized plan of operations
has been inaugurated. “But,” exclaims
the writer of the aforesaid letter, “this
stupendous undertaking cannot be car
ried on without money.” . Of c-ourse not.
Who ever knew of a Radical “stupend
ous undertaking” that was carried on
without money ?
Just here we reach the pith of the
whole matter. Over §9,000, we are told,
where contributed to this fund by the
members of the two Ho'uses of the For
tieth Congress, which sum is regarded
as a mere drop in the bucket, since “a
very mach larger sum is required.”—
Pray, for what is this “very much lar
ger sum" required ?
