The Ishmaelite, a new paper publish

journalistic novelty and gives prom

it can never be more ably managed

oped country which tbe Gulf Bond
spans, its very existence is truly won-

And now Willingham, of the Car-

Jacksonville, Fla, U filled with

short visit to that city last week was

First among the hotels of Jackson

earnestly recommend to Georgians,
U the “Windsor,” whose proprietor
is Col. Wm. Nicholls, formerly of the
Kimball House, New Holland Springs
and other Georgia hotels. Col. Nlcb
oils is entertaining Was. B. Astor
this winter ; Gen. Sherman and

stay there; and the “Windsor”seems
to be the headquarters of the dis

Yulgurity in Newspapers
Wr frequently not Ire paragraphs,
tviltiri-ms or stories going the rounds
the pa|>ers that contain allusions
that arc vulgar or expressions that
are openly indecent. This la a niosi
reprehensible practice. Tbe news
paper is a medium of information
anl instruction. It’s purpose and
object ia high and noble; its inflii-
tce widespread and mighty. Going,
as it docs, into the heart of the fam
ily, it is often tha fountain of knowl-
dje front which the youthful mind
drinka in the inspiration of its future
thought and action. It is sometimes
the primer of worldly experience to
the young man or woman unused to
the tendency and drift of the opinion
and aeutiment of the great, rushing
world that lives ami moves outside
of the modest and cireuiuscrilied
sphere of their own existences. Its
columns are scanned by the ere of
the pure young girl and simple-heart
ed boy, to whom tha knowledge of
avll has never come. Modest women
and refined men will read its pages.
The thought and language that arc
imprinted upon It will go to hearts
and miada fresh and innocent. Thus
Han Influence for good or evil
hid) is measured only by the
capacity of the raiud or the depth of
tbe heart Nothing can be more vile
than to make this groat power the
medium of evil thought and impure
expression. It is sowing the seed of
incalculable injury to those young
hearts to which these thoughts and
expressions carry the first hint of
hitherto unknown evil. It isto plant
in the pure mind the germ of untold
wrong and wickedness. It is an in
vasion of the sanctity of the home
circle, and a violation or the high and
responsible duty of the journalist.
These allusions frequently creep in
nawarea, but many of them are pub
lished with a view of pampering to a
vitiated taste and a loose sentiment
too prevalent in this fast age. We
decry the practice. It is a betrayal
of the responsible trnst of the jour
nalist; a violation of the duty he
owes to society. As a free press is a
guaranty ol a people’s liberty, so »
pure press is the guardian of a peo
ple's morality. Have done with the
practice, brothers. Let us wash our
hands of the evil, and rid our papers
of all that is impure in sentiment or
expression.
Tbe News desires to enter its pro
test with those of Its contemporaries
again it tbe practice of carrying eon
cealed weapons. Public sentiment is
responsible, however, for the barber
ous habit, for, if the taws which have
been enacted, were upheld and exe-
cotad by tbe people, plstoUand Bowie
knivea would not find such ready and

Jury Service.
Now that tho press of Georgia is
pieaeutiug to the approaching session
of the Georgia Legislature a pro
gramme of exercise in the manufac
ture of needtul laws, we beg _to re
spectfully urge the importance of a
revision of tbe lew regulating jury
service.
Tbe practice of locking up bodies of
men, and forbidding them the neces
sities, not to say comforts, of exis
tence, is barbarous and unbecoming
he dignity’of they aw. y Yea, there, is
an injottice about the requirements
which makes tho law itself a crime
against citizens whom it was intend
ed to protect.
When one or two members of
jury take a different view of a case
from that entertained by the other ten
they commit no crime, neither do
those who differ with them; then
why should punishment of incarcera
tion be inflicted upon the body 7 The
law, wa believe, presumes that all
men are honorable and honest, until
proven guilty of crime. Then if up
right and intelligent men only are
placed lu tbe jury box for service
why not allow them to serve faith
fully under the infiueuce of liberty
and in the possession of true citizen'
ship; rather thau driven as dumb
brutes? Has the law any right to as
sume that a verdict of a jury of its
own choice will be any other thau
an honorable one 7
Let tbe Legislature look into this
matter.
These thoughts are suggested at
this time by the sudden and untime
ly death of Mr. S. Yeomans, of He
county. A young man cut down in
early manhood, in obeying tbe un
just law of his country. Notice of the
cause of his death will be seon on our
local page.
are to he taken and deemud to lie
tramps and guilty of a misdemeanor,
punishable liy imprisonment at tabor,
unless they can prove that they do
not make a practice of going about
and subsisting upon aims. The im
prisonment may be for a term rang
ing from six to eighteen months, and
any person may apprehend the offen
der and take him before u.lusticeof
the Peace, who is required to hear
the evidouce and discharge tho pris
oner or commit him for trial. Wo
men, minora under sixteen years,
blind, deaf or dumb persons, ami
tliosr who are so maimed and crip
pled as to be unable to perform man
ual labor, are excepted from tho pro
visions of the act, which is to take af
fect on and after the 15th of August.
Tha Savannah Acini says that there
has been recently placed at the At
lantic & Gulf Hailroad depot in that
place a neat cabinet of polished?
cypress, filled with specimens of the
productqof Southwest Georgia. The
cabinet is 8 feet square. There are
specimens of wood for building pur
poses, also corn, meal, clover seed,
rice, rye, millet, peas, potatoes, wines,
•ilk, cotton, oats, pumpkins, sugar
cane, &c.
Tito Gulf Railroad management
will send a similar cabinet to its New
York office for inspection of the
Northern people who may see the
practical loidness of the fertility and
diversity of the products of Georgia
soil. This Is a good practicable idea
Of Gen. Joseph E. Johnston, the
Washington correspondent of the
New York Tribune says: *A man
who rec-oived many attentions on the
Democratic side and even from some
Republicans, was Gen. Joseph E.
Johnston, a soldier who won the re
spect of every Uuion man who fought
iu the armies that met his troops in
the field, and whose influence for
good is to-day as great among the
Southern people as that of any other
man. He will disappoint general cX'
pectatiou If he dees not prove himself
a useful Representative and a wise
leader in the party.’
At tho Presidential election of 1852
die Republican party was unknown;
its predecessor, the Frccsoil party,
threw about 150,000 votes, iu a total
of 3,000,000; the Democrat* and
Whigs divided the remainder, by
about 1,600,000 to 1,400,000. At the
election of 1856, the Whig party had
absolutely disappeared, and the new
born Republican party gave its can
didate 114 electoral votes, and a pop
ular vote of over 1,300,000. At tho
election of 1869, the Republican party
elected its candidate.

That session will be an interesting
one. The bitter struggle, of which
we already have forcsliadowings, be
tween the" two nearly-balanced par
ties in the house, will retard the pub
lic business and protract the sitting,
while everything done or omitted
will have direct reference to the Pres
idential struggle of 1880.

The brutal assassination of Colonel
Alston will not long go unavenged,
unless to the present white heat of in
dignation there succeeds the customs
ry torpor and indifference. The Cor

as a willful and deliberate murderer
—-the penalty of whose crime is the
gallows. The sooner he hangs, the
more valuable the example.

they came early, took front seats and
stayed late. A party caucus here, it

on the Senate for an excuse in not re

of an extravagant anil reckless major

reform, and if the Democrats mean
what they have emblazoned as mot

soon have the opportunity of giving
tiicm practical effect.

An Immense Farm.
Twenty-seven m.lcs north of Far
go, Dakota Territory, is the famous
Grondin farm, the largest cultivated
wheat farm in tiie world. It covers
about 40,000 acres, embracing both
Railroad and Government land, and
is close to the Red river. The farm ia
divided into four parts, ahd' has
dwellings, granaries, blacksmith shop,
elevators, Ac., and has a stabling
pacity for 200 horses, and has a gran
ary capacity for 1,000,000 bnsheis. In
addition to the wheat farm there ia a
stock farm of 20,000 acres. During
the seeding season they employ abont
seventy men, and iu harvest time
many as 200 men are busily engaged.
Seeding commences about the 9th of
April and cuds the first of May. The

and nominating Gen. P. M B. Young,
of Georgia, a very clever gentleman
but one wbo bad not sought the office,
and on* wbo coaid not, under the

The prevailing opinion among con
gressmen and politicians here is that
the session will not eml before the
first of July, and some place the limit
still further away. Zach. Chandler
is reported as saying that the session
will last until Deeember, and Secre
tary Sherman is said to have express
ed the opinion that there would lie no
respite before the 4th of Marcli, 1881.
These are, perhaps, extreme opinions,'
but they tend to show that there is
very little confidence here in tho dis
position of the new congress to de
vote itself.
