We don’t think king Cole regards the
Louisville Co’s, coup as do funny act of the

The Fusionists of Maine have fusioned
so to speak, with the Republican members
of the legislature.
Through all the late muddle, and un
certainty, “Central railroad officials are si

Central are safe.”
It speaks for itself; is what a lady said
of Dr. Bull’s Cough Syrup the oilier day,
for a single bottle cured my child of a most
dieadful cough.
Judge Bleckley is a modest man. It
wouldn’t take many sucii men to make a
world, and a good one too. Ttie Supreme
Court has lost a jewel of the first water.
It is said that Gen. Sherman and Gen.
Joe Johnston are bosom friends, and fre
quently walk arm and arm and joke each
other over the famous Georgia campaign.
The newspapers are discovering wonder
ful eaves in the 'Western States. It is hard
ly necessary to remind these discoverers
that tho first of April is distant nearly six
ty days. _
The Supreme Court of California has de
cided that indictments found by the last
Grand Jury against Charles DeYoung and
others are valid, and that the indicted par
ties must stand tiial.
Mr. and Mrs. Haves were iu New York on
the 2Cth of January, aud occupied a box at
night in Wallack’s theatre, with William
M. Evarts and James G. Blaine. The play
was “My Awful Dad.”
Gen. Grant has invited Gen. Robt. Pat
terson of Philadelphia his old commander
in Mexico, to accompany him in his tour
through Mexico. Gen. P. has accepted the
invitation, and will meet Grant on his ar
rival at Vera Cruz.
The faculty of Yule College and their
guests were on a recent occasion nearly
deprived of their dinner by the Sheriff, who
attached the viands for a debt of the land
lord's; but the money was paid before tho
soup cooled, and there was no further
troubles.
Charles N. Yallandigham, son of the late
Hon. Clement L. Yallandigham, is a mem
ber of the Ohio Legislature, and he is
the only democratic member of the body
who refused to vote for Thurman for Sena
tor. He says Mr. Thurman euchered Ids
father out of the senatorship.
Mrs. Kate Chase Sprague gave a dinner
party a few days ago in Washington, at
which Senator and Mrs. Conkling were
guests. It is positively asserted that af
ter the affair at Canonohet last summer,
Mre. Conkling wrote a letter to Mrs.
Sprague inviting her to accept the hospi
talities of the Conkling house at Utica.
A bill has been offered in the Mississippi
Legislature to prevent members receiving
free passes on railroads, Ac. It is thought
the bill cannot pass. It certainly ought to
become a law, and operate iu every State,
applying as wed to every officer of the
State government from Governor down.
It is a wholesome measure, eminently so.
One of the most portly and dignified of
the Mormon bishops was lately sivn run
ning iu a Salt Lake street, closely pursued
by a woman, who whacked him with a
broomstick whenever she got within reach
ing distance. She was the first and only
wife of brother Jones and she lead heard
the bishop advising her husband to prac
tice the precepts of the church by taking
an additional spouse or two.
It is now certain that no tariff bill pro
posing radical changes in the rates of du
ties and method of collection will be re
ported from the Committee of Ways and
Means this session. There have been sev
eral conferences of the Democratic mem
bers of the Committee on tins subject, and
the general tenor of discussion lias been
opposed to any radical change in the tar
iff.
Grant's intimate friend, G. Washington
Childs, is reported to have said a few days
ago, that he did not know whether the
General would be a candidate for tiie Pres
idency this year, or not. Grant is smart
enough to keep his mvn counsel, yet a-
wbile. If he is sure of the nomination
his friends will enter him for the race. If
he is not then they will withhold his name.
That is the long and the short of it we
guess.
Kissing other men’s wives, and kissing
servant girls on the sly, is bringing disre
pute on Northern ministers and their con
gregations, and trouble on the gentlemen of
the doth. Well, kissing is not so bad as
killing; and as long as the clergy do not
take Bev. H. H. Hayden, and his way, as a
model, we shall not utterly despair of tho
morals of the ministry or the salvation of
the men and women who sit under their
preaching.
Some of the funny fellows of the Press
are poking fun at Hon. Mr. Schenek, the fa
mous poker player, in connection with an
appointment as Brazilian minister; say
ing disrespectfully and unkindly that
Sehenck could make the emperor lieiieve
he held four kings in his hand when it was
four knaves. Now, minister Shcnck is in
wretched health, suffering with an incura
ble disease, it is said, and must soon pla>
out the game of life, to await the final
trump. Be silent gentlemen ami pass.
If the Mexican peopio would just capture
Gen. Grant, and install him at the head of
the “Halis of the MontesAmas,” they would
do a good tiling for themselves, for the
world, Gen. Grant, aud these United States,
especially. What a load it would lift from
John Sherman's heart—but then, there is
a dark side to the picture. Would his ex
cellency the Generalissimo, tolerate Bab
cock, Robeson, Bellnap and Co. near his
Court, where there is so much gold and sil
ver lying around loose; 1 What troubles in
the family would arise, if he did not.' Not
withstanding all this, we most seriously
and earnestly advise the unhappy Mexi
cans to get Grant—he loves horses—so do
the Mexicans—then why not have a stable
government?
The Book so long expected of the late
General J. B. Hood is now just published,
and the delay is well repaid by the beauty
of the style in which it is prepared and
published for the l>enefit of "The Hood

THE STUDY AND USES OF HISTORY.
We refer to this subject, again, to com
plete what we did not have the time and
space to say in full upon it, in our la«t is
sue. Wo are combining various features in
our paper, to make it useful and attractive
as a family visitor. Some, we are^plcased
to know, take a speciai interest in our ag
ricultural and industrial columns, others, in
the literary and news departments, while
others, and wo trust the most of our read
ers, are interested in them all, including
our weekly expositions of the political af
fairs of tho country. When the contest, t>e-
tween tho great parties of the country for
political power and supremacy, shall more
fully open, more space will bo required for
the discussion of the great topics which
will excite and engage the attention of the
people; hence, we shall use tho intervening
time to indulge in the lighter, and, to most
people, the more pleasing luxuries of mind,
to be found in pure and wholesome litera
ture.
There are some who depreciate history,
as a record of as much delusion, and even
falsehood, as truth and fact. Somo years
since the ablest Quarterly in Eurojie, the
Westminster Review, in a very able article
contended that History contained but little
of value for the statesman, or instructive
for present or future ages. It sustained a
remark, which Mr. Cobden had made, that
there was more valuabc knowledge in a sin
gle number of the London Times than in all
the pages of Thucydides. This was, at a
late day, paying a poor compliment to the
Halinusian historian, who, influenced by a
thirds for, and admiration of, learning and
knowledge, shod tears, when a mere boy,
when Herodotus recited his History at the
Slst Olympiad—to the warrior and histori
an, who was taught rhetoric by Autipho,
and logic by Anaxagoras—who was a mod
el for Sallust and Tacitus—whose works
were copied ton times by the great orator,
Demosthenes, that ho might catch his spir
it and stylo—whoso greatness was so ac
knowledged that a statue was erected to
perpetuate the fame of Oenobius merely for
having moved a decree of the Athenean As
sembly to recall him from exile whosejudg-
ment and trutli were so signal, that no man
of his times, nor of any subsequent times,
lias called them in question—whose style
has been considered, by tho learned in all
ages, as the very perfection of Atticism—
and who, as a historian, has ever been re
garded for depth of thought, candour and
truth, as a model for the world.
Tho reviewer said: “The political expe-
rien’oof one age, even if represented truly,
forms no trustworthy antecedent for the
guidance of an altered age.” Again lie said:
“Our life is in tho present, and that is
enough for us—let the dead bury the dead.”
\Yo know that the course of tilings lias in
many respects ever been in a perpetual cir
cle; but how contracted the thought, that,
because society is. in a great degree, what
it was. because Governments have changed,
and learning and faith and hope that, there
fore, the past is nothing to us. and conveys
to us no solid advantages. \Ve might as
well say at, once, that experience is useless,
that example has no value—that all good
must arise, spontaneously, from the pres
ent order of tilings, and men's immediate
conception of right and truth, or virtue and
honor, of social and governmental organi
zations and duties. It is in the history of
the past that men, of succeeding ages, have
found the lights to guide them to happier
destinies. “Lot the dead bury the dead.”
t):i the contrary, let us look to the mighty
past, to the waste of ages that have gone,
to learn lessons of wisdom—to see how to
avoid the quicksands of ignorance, super
stition, anarchy and chance—to build our
governments and social institutions upon
rocks anil not upon moving sands. Nations
have risen and towered to lofty eminence,
have shed their light upon the world leav
ing no shadow of their former material ex
istence, but they live yet, on the historian’s
page. Over Italy and Greece the traveller
may behold the same shining skies which
their poets Clothed in fervid beauty, but
dark, massive, gloomy, are the phantoms
of their former glory, save in tho history
which Thucydides wrote, and others who
lived then, to tell us, in after ages, of their
diN'ds in war and peace, of tho sources of
their greatness, and of the wrecks of their
empires and republics. We read, in them,
of the illustrious actions of their great men,
wiio illustrated, in those ages, the true dig
nity and virtues of our race. But for the
lamps which history hung out, in those
moving ages of time, what would we know
of them? Nothing, nothing: those ages
would lie, to us, a vast Sahara of impene
trable darkness. The song of the Iliad and
the eloquence of Tully, would have enrap
tured the people then, but they would have
been lost forever in the mourning winds.
The writer, to whom we have alluded,
speaks of, i we use his own language,) “the
noble patriotism, the beautiful cultivation
of the Greeks-the iron nerve and austere
virtue of the Romans.” How did he learn
these facts, if history is a fiction? a mere
delusive mockery, tearing before us the
spectral figures of falsehood, and images
clothed only, in the bright hues of imagi
nation? If they were that, and no more,
history was useful in toning and nerving
the heart to noble emotions. The writer
most eloquently said: "The destroying
spirit of criticism has gone out witn its
fiery sword, but the grass will*shoot up
lairer and greener in the track over which
it has passed.” If he meant that criticism
hr.d exposed the falsehoods of History, as
it lias been written, what guaranty could he
give that it will not have the same task to
perform for that which is in the course of
preparation now, and that which will lx 1
written hereafter? Opinions have ever been
as varying as the faces of men; passion lias
often drowned virtue and distorted trutli in
every age of the world. Such will ever 1»*
the ease, in a greater or less degree, and
they will present in all future time their
kaliediseopie phases of human actions and
events.
We do not deny that many things, record
ed in history, are but the delusive images of
superstition, misconception, or ignorance.
Many of the sounds which reach our ears
in mournful murmurs from the past, are
but tlie echoes of fabled songs; but for all
the purposes of good, to enrich the stock
of human knowledge, to teach by experi
ence and example, to impress us happily
by portraitures of noble characters, to light
us on by the laws and policies of States, it
is sufficiently correct and clear.
The past. With its many centuries of
time, its important, and countless deeds,
may bo viewed as a grand, almost bound
less monument, not enveloped in utter
darkness, but shrouded with the sombre
tiui“s of an eclipse, not total, but partial,
because the light of history l*eams iu pen
sive beauty from its towers. How delight
ful, how instructive it is, to rove within its
spaciousapurtments, its solemn cataeuiubs,
to read inscriptions on the tombs of na
tions, or trace tho origin and progiess of
those whose groat hearts yet palpitate with
life! Yes. it is grand, almost terrible in its
wonderful proportions and abysmal
depths.
What would be our condition, what our
regrets, knowing that the earth had existed
for thousands of year's, aud that innumer
able great actions bad transpired during
that waste ot ages, were wo to stand under
their dark brow, with no light of History
to rise upou us like a morning sun upon
the world. The past would stand shroud
ed in impenetrable darkness, and man
would stand encircled with a small horizon
from which he would sink, hopeless and
ignorant, into his grave. Were the past
shut from vision, the future would be equal-
so. As we could not look back except
MR. BAYARD'S SPEECH.
We have not seen a full report of tho
speech of Mr. Bayard delivered in the Sen
ate, on the 28th ult., on his resolution to
withdraw the legal tender quality of green
backs. The synopsis of the speech, which
we have seen contains briefly the sub
stance of his views and U strictly in accor
dance with those heretofore expressed by
him. It is evident that he has studied the
question closely, and brought to bear upon
it the full power of his acknowledged abili
ty. We do not question Mr. Bayard’s sin
cerity and honesty of purpose, but we are
not convinced of the accuracy of his views.
He says, “his object in urging the adoption
of his resolution was to bring about actual
resumption of specie payments.” Well,
then, we have not an actual resumption
of specie payments! Wo thought we had
it. Everybody had tho opportunity of
getting gold for greenbacks, but did not
call for the gold—seeming to prefer the
greenbacks. If we have $800,000,000 of cur
rency in national bank notes and green
backs, would it not require at least one-
third of the volume of currency in gold, to
enable the banks and government to keep
up the resumption or specie payments?
Would it not be better to depend upon the
United States Treasury to redeem green
backs in gold, than to rely upon the na
tional banks to redeem their entire circula
tion in that metal and silver. The govern
ment, in making them legal tenders is
bound tq redeem them. Who will want
them redeemed in gold when all the thirty-
eight States of the Union are bound to
make them equal in value to gold! Mr.
Bayard says:
“Sound prosperity must rest upon a
sound basis and real money is sound cur
rency.” Ho means by sound currency gold
and silver. If we need from 800 millions
to one thousand million of dollars of cur
rency to meet tho wants of the country,
where is that amountof gold to come from?
Paper currency is a necessity, because
there Is not gold enough to fill the requisite
volume of currency. Mr. Bayard does not
seem to object to greenbacks as a curren
cy but as a legal tender. If they are to be
used as a currency, where is the gold to
come from to redeem them and the nation
al bank notes? Is it not safer for the peo
ple, that 1 his should be a legal tender equal
to gold, but liable to redemption in gold.
The national banks, which furnish a gcnxl
currency, would have as much as they
could do to redeem their notes in gold if
run upon, but there is no danger of that
for tho Government holds its own bonds,
bought by the stockholders of the banks,
to protect the bill holders. We see no rea
son for abolishing the National Banks.—
They furnish a currency equal to green
backs, even with the legal tender for all
the purposes of trade and commerce. It
seems to us, '.we may be mistaken howev
er,) that the currency of the national banks
and greenbacks, is the ne phis ultra of a
sound and good currency. Let them all
alone, it is good enough. We would as soon
have the national bank bills and green
backs as gold. The only difference is green
backs are a legal tender and the notes of
tlie national banks are not. But the notes
of the national banks are virtually a legal
tender'for all debts, or payments except for
custom dues. In selling property no one
objects to receiving payments in their
notes. They pass current in all trades be-
twoen the people as freely as greenbacks, or
golii and silver. They will be taken for
stock, merchandise, cotton, houses and
iafids, and by all citizens in all sections of
tlie country, by tax collectors or states,
and revenue officers of the United States,
except only for custom duties. What dif
ference does it make then if these notes
and greenbacks are, as Mr. Bayard says,
mere evidences of debt. They buy any
thing, and are taken for debts, and we can
not see therefore hoiv the compulsory le
gal tender quality of greenbacks, breaks
the law of “honesty and money” as Mr.
Bayard asserts. There would be practical
force in that statement, it people wore
afraid to take them, and take them only un
der the compulsion of law. But they take
theiq freely and willingly, and are glad to
g.-t them. Many of the old ideas about
inconvertible paper money do not apply in
these cases at all. They are not inconverti
ble, they are sound and safe and every man
has confidence in them. That is the beauty
of the system. Mr. Bavard is holding on
to old antiquated ideas that do not and can
not apply to this currency. There is no
danger of the inflation to which Mr. Bay
ard refers. The supply will bo regulated
by tlie demand. Mr. Bayard intimates that
they will prevent the influx of foreign gold.
We cannot understand that proposition. If
we hold our productions upon a gold basis,
whether foreigners want our grains, our
meat, our cotton or any thing else, the
character of our currency has nothing to
do with the demand here for payment in
gold. If tho balance of trade is in our fa
vor it must be paid in gold, if against us we
must pay in gold. It is not at all likely
that this balance will ever be against us.
Tf il should be there will be no difficulty in
getting gold enough to sustain us.
We might say more but deem it unneces
sary to enlarge farther, and for the pres
ent take leave of the subject.
“VERITAS VIYCIT.”
In calling the attention of our readers to
the advertisement in another column, of the
“Warner Safe Remedies,” of which H. H.

the efficiency of their preparations, and an
unbounded confidence in the truth of all
that is good, and said of them.

but by thousands, are in tlie hands of above

solely by a laudable desire, on the part of
the writer, to give to suffering men and

Added pleasure it is to state, that each

the community in which they live are know
as honorable and upright men, and hence is
it sale to assert, they would not lend their

Judge Bleckley Resigned.—Late ad
vices from Atlanta announce that Justice
Bleckley, of the Supremo Court, has reign

ed in his stead Hon. Martin Crawford, of
Columbus. That gentlemen is now pre
siding in the Circuit Court of his district
and upon his retiring a vacancy would oc-
eur.
This the Governor antiepatod, by naming
Mr. Butt, of Marion county, as the succes
sor of Judge Crawford. Both appointments
are eminently felicitous and satisfactory,
though the entire legal, fraternity of the
State will regret the retirement of Judge
Bleckley, who was an ornament to his pro
fession, and a gentleman, patriot, and

THE DEMOCRATIC PROSPECT.
What are Democrats depressed for? All
the talk about Democratic defeats is idle
verbiage. A majority of the people of this
country are Democrats. That was shown
in 1876. Republicanism brought out all its
forces. It had all its battalions in the field
every gun,every sword and bayonet, every
power at their command, was brought to
bear aud yet Democracy gained a victory
True we lost its fruits, but still there is a
magic in the name of Democrat. Some
people have wanted a change in the names
of parties. There is no name under heav
en better calculated to please the peopio
than that of Democrat. Tlie old guard be
lieve in that name, the old wbigs of the
South, who fought tho democrats on many
a hard fought Held, are reconciled to the
name of Democrat. Let us stick to it and
fight under the Democratic Flag. The
winds make music in its folds and the peo
ple gaze on it as the symbol or victory
and hope. Democracy means a govern
ment by tlie people. Our revolutionary
fathers made a government for the people
to bo sustained by the people. Many of
our fellow-citizens, in the Northern States,
have been misled and deceived. They are
led by men who have fallen from the Heav
en of Democracy. Those leaders are like
the rebels against God in the celestial
world. They have been hurled in the past,
into a political pandemonium. False gods
and false prophets, they have triumphed
for a time and are seeking to lead the peo
ple into tlie hell in whicli they were cast
Some of the people, unfortunately, look to
them as celestial spirits who can lead them
to a now social heaven, but we trust they
will yet see that their ends are monarchy,
empire and tyranny. They are loaded well
with fair pretences, professing to bo tho
friends of tlie people and their rights. The
Devil covers himself with a Christian’s
cloak when lie desires to make a Christian
forsake the cross and worship him. Did
our fathers preach the doctrines of our Re
publican opponents? Did they tell the
people that their States were the satellites
and provinces of a central sun? No, never,
never. As Satan gave his lieutenants, Mo
loch, Belial, Abaddon, Bolzehub, and the
rest, the license to betray, to sting, to slan
der, and to practico pain, so these false
leaders have done. The tree is known by
its fruit. For years wo have felt tho stings,
the slanders and pains, which have goad
ed us to distraction almost beyond endu
rance. Are those who have been guilty of
these atrocious deeds, the leaders to de
pend upon to save republican institutions
and defend the rights of the people? We
might ns soon go into a Bengal tiger's
jungle, for safety. Our brethren of the
north will see these matters tn their true
light in a few years more. They are not
insensible to humane and noble deeds.—
They will see that their leadersthave be
trayed them into the practice of inhuman
cruelty, and, then, tlie reacting tide will
sweep them off as the enemies of the true
l ights of the people and the just ends of
republican institutions. Througliout a!l
these years of pain and trouble, the Demo
crats of the North have been our friends
They have stood by us since the war in our
darkest hours. Let its stick to them, and
he united, as the o'llv hope left us in these
eyentful times. It is true we can yet go
nnd come, plant and reap, but when the
radicals shall be firmly seated in power, it
will be more than a citizen can dare to do
to -criticise their rule and denounce it as
tlie offsprir g <>r unjust power and usur
pation. Let us stick then to the democra
cy or the country. In its triumph there is
safety, in its defeat, political ruin.
AN APPEAL FOR A MONUMENT TO REV. L.
PIERCE. D. I).
At the recent session of the South Geor
gia Conference, held in Perry, Georgia, tlie
following action was unanimously ta
ken :
“Whereas, God lias seen proper to take
to himself our venerate ! father and friend.
Rev. Loviek Pierce. I). P.; and, Whereas
his long life and public ministry—8o full of
greatness and goodness, have left, their
impress upon tho hearts of thousands at
home and abroad nnd stamped him ns one
of the first minds of modern times; there
fore,
“ Resolved, 1. That the Bishop presiding
is hereby requested to appoint a committee
of five who shall take such steps as may be
necessary, to erect a suitable monument to
his memory.
“2. That we recommend that said com
mittee devise a plan that will afford the
privilege of aiding, to all who may desire
to assist in this laudable enterprise.
“3. Ttiat in the prosecution of this work
of gratitude and love we especially and
cordially solicit the co-operation of the
North Georgia conference.”
As directed in tlie first resolution, Bishop
Doggett completed the action by appoint
ing the committee named l>elow.
Alter much consultation it was decided to
erect the monument in the city of Colum
bus, where Dr. Pierce is buried, and to is
sue this address immediately soliciting
contributions from all who knew and hon
ored anil loved him.
Surely no importunity is needed to arouse
tho public heart, and draw, forth an expres
sion of esteem, worthy alike of ourselves,
and the illustrious dead.
While he was a Georgian and a Method
ist he loved mankind every where and lived
and labored for the universal good. Let us
all, without distinction of names or creeds,
or countries ijiise a monument in gratitude
to God, aikl on it write the name of the
great and good man who has been a father
to us ail.
Our plans are few and simple. We invite
contributions from all—whether at home or
abroad. We would nor restrain the Impulse
whicli may prompt some to give large a-
niounts, neither would we hesitate to reeieve
the smallest sums.
It would be a beautiful and appropriate act
for tlie Sabbath-school, upon whom he be
stowed so much loving laiior, to lake part
in this offering or love, and we request all
Superintendents to present it before their
schools, and urge a generous response.
We bog all our ministerial brethren to act
as agents in making this collection.
The committee designate Rev. Jos. S.
Key, D. D., Macon. Georgia, as the Treas
urer to whom all remittances should be
made. Careful lists of contributors will be
preserved.
It is greatly desired that your response
be both liberal and promptly made.

THE LADIES’ FAVORITE.
Among the many thousands of ladies
who have used Dr. Pierce’s Favorite Pre
scription and pronounced it their favorite
remedy, because so efficient in tho diseases
and weaknesses peculiar to women, are
and many who are well favorably known in
the world of letters, as well as artists, musi
cians, nnd a whole host of names from the
brilliant ranks of wealth and fashion. It
is pre-eminently the'ladies’ Favorite Pre

it must be so.
Capt. Mallory of the steamship city of
