In 1846, when it was proposed to reconstruct
Georgia upon the basin of Congressional
enactments, there was no res sdjudicata iu
name whereto the opposition might retort for
hobby or quibble! The opposition, with
Andy Johnson at their head, talked about the
“Constitution;" but candid men, even of the
Georgia Democracy, admitted that Andy's re
construction of 1865-4 was notoriously un-
reoonstrnctional. And yet they upheld the
proceeding as valid because they did not
want to go back upon their record! The
question of reconstruction wss res adjudicala,
aad the people nor their chosen representa
tives might not correct a blander which wss
then apparent to all. They knew not “old
rea” by name, nevertheless they had onnght
his spirit! The result proved who were the
wise and who the foolish counselors then,
#i it will in the winter of 1860, wheu Con
greas again assemble*-.
In the present controversy about eligibility,
the opposition havo the name without the
substance ; whereas, in 1866, thej had the
substance without the name. Thoy now shout
“res adjudicate "—thus applying a technical
term of nisi juris to a question of Slate and
national policy. They then shouted “the
Constitution "—-thus Attempting to invalidate
the Reconstruction Acts by that fundamental
law which condemned Johnson's “ policy " os
ao usurpation ! They were as rational in the
one case as they are in the other ; aud in both,
have they ignored the plainest maxims of ju
risprudence, no less than the most obvious de
ductions of reason.
Quibbles, under the old cormuou law prac
tice of special pleading, were admissible in
Courts of inferior jurisdiction; especially
where it might be desirablo to procure delay
in passing npon the merits of the caso in
litigation. But mere quibbles, under the
modern rules of jurisprudence, are inadmissi
ble even for the purposes ot delay. But in
the settlement of political questions of grave
import, all such subterfuges are, and ever
have been, simply contemptible. Iu Iaw, there
is a remedy for each and every wrong ; ah in
politic# there is always a way of atoning for
blunders, when the blunderers honestly de
sire to make atonement.
In expelling the colored members, the Deni
oersts claimed to act under a legitimate
"traction of the fundamental law. T hey re
pelled the charge of hostility to the colored
man—denied that their action lmd any politi
cal aigniflcance—but claimed that the question
of eligibility was one of law merely. In con
firmation of this, they passed a resolution
through the House referring the question to
the Courts, and pledging acquiescence to the
decision that should there bo given. And
that the decision lias been had, and since it is
against them, they resurrect a rule of common
law pleading, and attempt to apply it iu the
proceedings of a legislative liody.
Plain, common-sense people have a plain
common-sense method of dealing with all
such questions. The colored members were
expelled during the progress of s hestod
political campaign. Thiir expulsion was
thought to have been both illegal sod nnpoli
tic at the time. Binco then, the Coarts bare
decided it to be illegal; and time hns
abundantly shown that it was highly impolt-
tic. Hence, the plainest, simplest, easiest aud
most honorable way ont of the difficulty is,
to re seat those members thus • xtending to
them their political rights under the Consti
tution and la we of the Htato, and thus settling
a controversy with the General Government,
the perpetoation of which can result in noth
ing bat evil to Georgia. Lot the people de
mand this at the hands of tho present Legis
lature, aad all this trouble and bother and
nonsense will have an ending. This demand

Thu State Journal publishes a letter Irom
Gen. B. F. Butler ti> a citizen of Virginia
aimut r« qniring the lent oath of members of
the Htstc Legislature. Mr. Butler sa>s:
My opinion, therefore, would be, and in
that f am quite clear that it Is within the
|>ower of the government and within the re
quirement* of the lew of Congress, if admin
istered hi their integrity, to set astdo those
men who cannot take tha test oath because of
in ui" nuruiou, enu vum
nd so participate, and who lost
the votes of the sectors because of their ad
herence to the Union, shookl be admitted to
their Mmts a* living the choios of th# only men
voting wh» did not prafrr a traitor to the gov
ernment to a loyal man for his repnauBtetive.
Mr. Ruthradd* that Congraea lath#only
power which can remove tho neoeaaity of Uk *
ing the iron-clad oath.
A prominent Conservative Republican from
Mississippi, who had an interview with tho
President on Thursday iu regard to political
affairs ia that Btate, informed the President
that the only deairo of the Conservative Re
publicans was neutrality ou tho part of tboad-
miuistratiou in the approaohing election. Tho
President is represented ns roplying that he
wished for tho success of tho party which
would in good faith curry out tho Reconstruc
tion Act*, ratify tho fifteenth article of amend
ment to the Constitution of tho United Btatos
and give protection to life and property in
Mississippi. He wanted to know whether tho
former euomies of the government wore act-
itig iu good faith in their present professions
of loyalty, aud sAid that this would soon he
ascertained in part by tho action of tho Con
servative Republicans in Virginia. If they
wan aetifff in good faith ho would be glad to
have not only the intelligence nnd influence of
that Ktatc, but of the South generally, in sup
port of his administration. Tho President
inquired at what timo the Conservative Re
publicans would nominate thei* 1 candidates,
and whon informed that it would probably be
about tho 1st of Beptomber, he replied tlmt he
would hoc what kind ot a ticket thov would
put in tho field, nnd bis notion would he influ
enced more or less by subsequent eVuuU and
the course of affairs in the Houtb. He added
that ho desired to soe the payment of the pub
lic debt secured, aud the lutogrity ami honor
of the nation rendeted inviolate, and when
this was accomplished he would he satisfied.

Of ail maladies, thaw la turn# more preva
lent, (Uloterioea, and yet mom aegieeUd, than
GaUrrh. The eomplalnt ti frequently caused
by an ordinary eokt It begin# with the symp
toms of a cold in the head, is accompanied
with a watery discharge from tho nose that Ir
ritates the orifice of the nostril*, making them
red aud sore. The nasal passages seem very
sensitive, and a feeling of fnllnese Is experi
enced in the head. One, aud sometimes both,
the nostrils become stopped np, rendering res
piration through them difficult, in many
there is a strong inclination to sneeze. After a
few days the inflammatory symptoms subside
to a degree, and the accretions or dischargee
grow thicker, becoming, at times, quite of
fensive to the nncll. A great deal of tbie mu
cus passes down the throat, and imperceptibly
affects the lining membrane of the air pas
sages. After a time, this mnens will adhere
to the throat, just back of aad above the soft
palate, requiring considerable effort to draw
or hawk it loose. Sometime* filthy lumps of
this hardened mucus, having the consistency
of glne, is blown from the nostrils—its very
sig'it and smell sickening the patient The
throat will, in time, become implicated, and
more or less irritation will be present daring
the entire winter. If neglected too long, this
inflammation passes down farther, and pro
duces either Asthma or Bronchitis, and even
Consumption. Most patients have a dull, heavy
feeling or pressure across the brows—others
have heat and pain on the top or back of the
head. Tbe ears, and often tbe eyes, suffer
very materially. Catanb ia also one of the
most prevalent causes of noises in tbe bead
and jMirtial deafness, more particularly in one
ear. The diseaso being located in the head,
in snob close proximity to the brain, it natu
rally injures the mind, and consequently tbe
patient complains of weakened powers of mlud
or loss of memory.
While afflicted with Catarrh, tho entire sys-
tom is sensibly affected to a more or less de
gree. Besides the symptoms in the nasal cav
ities, nervous headache, confusion of mind,
and morosonoss of disposition, tho party will
also experience an indisposition to labor, a
pain across tho back, a capricious appetite,
disrelish for pleasure, irregular or costive bow
els, and, in the coses of most females, mauy
complaints peculiar to their sox.
In many cases a tendency to Scrofula is ex
hibited by Catarrh, and indeed we have treat
ed many cases that wore Scrofula iu fact, and
the Catarrhnl symptoms wore merely its exhi
bition.
Catarrh is, then, a disgastiug, pernicious,
and often (by merging the patient into con
sumption) a fatal malady. Few, indeed, re
alize tho fatal conseqaonces of noglocting it
till it reaches the lungs, when a slight backing
cough tells a fearful talo. To the mass of phy
sicians Catarrh is an incurable diseaso, but
this is due to their dovoting no time to its
special stndy, and thus the malady, its cause,
nature and effects remain in almost culpable
obscurity. Borne few have, indeed, taken the
subject up from timo to time, but they made
only feeble efforts to master it, fonnd it obsti
nate and tedious, and finally abandoned the
study altogether.
Most physicians also regard Catarrh ii
head or throat as a merely local affection.
Close observation, and a practice iu its troat
metit of over eight years, have taught as thut
tho diseaso is both local aud constitutional.
The family pbysioian, when consulted, not
willing to admit his ignorouce of the disease,
often assorts that “Catarrh can never be
oared.” Owing to this ignomnoe, thoasauds
are dying of Consumption in the morning and
mid-day of life, who can look bnck a few
months to the time when it was “nothing bnt
Catarrh,” and it may be safely asserted that,
after hereditary predisposition, Catarrh is the
most frequent and important cause of this
fatal complaint.
That Catarrh can bo radically eared, if prop
erly treatetl, has been amply demonstrated by
the uniform snccoss attending onr practice iu
this specialty—to which we have devoted the
study and practice of many years. The pa
tient experiences remarkable relief upon the
very first application, and iu a few weeks is
entirely and permanently cured.
