Acocbta, Ga., March 27th, 18C8.
At 10 o’clock, this morning, the members
of the Augusta Bar assembled to take
action upon the death of the late Judge
Starnes.
On motion of Gov. Johnson, Judge TV.
T. Gould was called to the Chair, ami
Col. Twiggs was requested to act as Sec
retary.
On motion of Gov. Johnson, a com
mittee of five was appointed to prepare
resolutions, to be submitted to a subsequent
meeting.
The following were the committee ap
pointed by the Chair : Gov. Johnson, Col.
Hilliard, Mr. Hope Hull, Judge Hook, and
Captain Barnes. The meeting then ad
journed until 10 o’clock a. in., on the 28th
instant.
Augusta, Ga., March 28th, 18C8.
The Bar met this morning, pursuant to
adjournment, and was called to order by
the Chairman, Judge Gould.
The following preamble aud resolutions
were then submitted by the committee
through their Chairman, Gov. Johnson,
and unanimously adopted:
Asa Professional Brotherhood, we are
called to record the removal of another
member of this Bar to the spiritual world.
Only a few days ago, Ebenezer Starnes was
in vigorous health and in the zenith of
useful activity; now he is numbered with
the departed, and his place at this Bar, in
society, and in the family circle, is vacant.
The suddenness of the sad event is another
illustration of the solemn truth, “ that in
the midst of life we are in death.”
The deceased achieved distinctions as a
lawyer, the reward of long, continued
devotion to the stern exactions of legal
science. He was, for two successive terms,
the Attorney Genoral of Georgia, afterward
Judge of this Circuit, and then one of the
Justices of the Supreme Court, in all of
which positions he displayed great ability
and learning, combined with uncorruptible
purity and stern integrity. His published
decisions amply vindicate his claim to be
ranked amongst eminent jurists, a position
awarded to him by his brethren of the Bar
throughout the State. He was successful
as a practitioner. Skilled in the rules of
pleading and practice, he had few superiors
in the conduct and management o( causes,
He was a safe counsellor. Patient in the
investigation of legal questions and intent
on arriving at truth, his matured opinions
were rarely erroneous. As an advocate,
he was forcible and logical. He always met
fairly the arguments of his adversary and
exhibited the (rankness of an upright
gentleman.
He was not only an able lawyer, but he
was a man of extensive reading. There is
scarcely any subject, in history, science
and art, with which h‘e was not more or
less familiar, and he was happy in draw
ing valuable material from all these sources,
with which to embelish his style, illustrate
his opinions, and enliven his conversation.
Eschewing politics, he never sought its
official honors. But he was a warm patriot,
and devoted to the prosperity and elevation
of his native State. Identified with Augusta,
by every tie that renders home f»ered, its
people enjoyed his sympathy and cooperation
in every enterprise calculated to promote its
improvement. Generous in his nature, he
was kind and charitable to the needy ; and
conscientious in his convictions of duty, he
was prompt in the discharge of his obliga
tions to society. Asa friend, he was sincere
and true. Therefore,
Resolved, 1. That, in the demise of the
Honorable Ebenezer Starnes, the bar has
lost one of its brightest ornaments ; the State
one of its most worthy and distinguished
citizens; and this community one of its most
valuable and public spirited members.
Resolved, 2. That we tender to the be
reaved family of the deceased our most
sincere condolence and sympathy, and that
they be furnished with a copy of these pro
ceedings.
Resolved, 3. That the members of this
Bar, as a token of respect to the memory of
our departed brother, will wear the usual
badge of mourning for thirty days.
Resolved, 4. That his Honor the Judge is
respectfully requested to order this preamble
and resolutions to be entered on the minutes
of this Court, and that a copy of the same
be furnished to the papers of this city for
publication. W. T. Gould, Ch’n.
H. D. D. Twiggs, See’y.
Lucky tteorge.
General Geo. B. McClellan, proving
himself nearest of kin to the late Lard
Clyde, Colin Campbell, has inherited a
large share of the property of that gentle
man, who died intestate years ago, and
whose “effects” have been in abeyance for
the one discovered to be his most proximate
relative. Mrs. McClellan (the General’s
mother) and Lord Clyde were first cousins.
Junius Again.
A Mr. Hayward, in England, has re
printed an article from Frazer's Magazine,
which is said to give conclusive answer to
the claim set up by Macaulay and others,
for Sir Phillip Francis, to the authorship
of the Junius Letters. Mr. Hayward shows,
it is said, that ihe real author must have
been older than Francis, for the writer of
the letters claims to have witnessed the
great Parliamentary fights during the
Ministry of Walpole, and these took place
in the childhood of Francis. He holds,
moreover, that not the least resemblance to
the handwriting of Francis can bo seen in
the Junius manuscripts, and that while
Francis had not the ability necessary to
have written the letters, he had sufficient
vanity to willingly take credit due to the
anonymous.
Cood-ty.
It is a hard word to speak. Some may
laugh that it should be, but let them. Icy
hearts are never kind. It is a word that
has choked many an utterance, and started
many a tear. The hand is clasped, the word
spoken, we part, and out upon the ocean
of time we go to meet again—where, God
only knows, lt ntay be soon; it may be
never. Take care that your “good-by” bo
not a cold one—it may be the last that you
can give. E’er you may meet your friend
again death's cold hand may have closed
his eyes and chained his lips forever. Ah I
he may have died thinking you loved him
not.
Again, it may be a long separation.—
I fiends crowd around and give you their
hand. How you detect iu each “good-by”
the love that lingers there ; and how you
bear away with you the memory of these
parting words many, many days.
AVe must often separalo from those we
love when it is hard to part. Tear not
yourself away with a careless boldness that
defies all love, but make your last words
linger—give the heart its full utterance—
and if tears fall, what of it ? Tears are not
untunniy.
A Moral ami an Kxataple
“Listen,” said I, “listen and attend, and
you shall have a moral and example. When
tbo wasp now in the window entered the
room, you flew at it with all kinds of vio
lence. I wonder it did not sling every one o(
you. Now, in future, let a wasp, when it
comes, have its bout and make its little
noise. Don’t stir a muscle—don’t move a
lip—bo quiet aa Venus or Diana, or anybody
of that sort,uutil the wasp seems inclined, as
at this moment, to settle, then do ns 1 do
now.” Whereupon, dipping the feather end
of the pen in the cruet of salad oil, I ap
proached the wasp, and in the softest aud
tenderest manner possible, just oiled it upon
the body—tho black and yellow, like a green
waistcoat—when down it fell, turned upon
its back, and was dead in a minute. “There,
girls,” said I, “see what kindness and a little
oil does.” Now, here’s my moral aud exam
ple: When a husband comes hotne in ill
humor, don't cry out and fly at him, hut try
a little oil—in fact, treat your husband like
a wasp.

The Wisconsin State Journal exposes the
Bates Flag-March through the South. It
may be still a vexed question as to who pays
for Bates' clothes, but the facts, as presented
below, cannot be controverted :
The w hole affair was arranged by some
Copperhead politicians for a little cheap
butteomb, Sergeant Bates, for some time
before the beginning of his “march,” lived
at Edgerton, a small village on the railroad
about 25 miles east of this city. A citizen
of Edgerton, who was in our office a few
days ago says the story that he laid a wager
with another citizen ot that place, that he
could carry a United States flag through the
Southern States, has no foundation. Bates
is a young and worthless sort of a fellow, and
a violent Democrat. Duriug the war he was
a member of an artillery company stationed
at Washington, but was never engaged in
any battle, and saw no service more serious
than drawing his rations and spending his
pay about the capital. Last Fall lie went
iuto Milwaukee, and, after an absence of
some days, there appeared on the Demo
cratic side of The Evening Wisconsin a
long sensational account of tho tremendous
march which Sergeant Bates, in accordance
with a wager, was about to undertake through
the Southern States.
From time to time The Wisconsin gave a
column in the best sciisatioual style of one
of its Democratic editors, aud other Demo
cratic papers and some Republican papers
began to have paragraphs and longer articles
about Sergeant Bates. When he left Edger
ton, it was understood that he would be pro
vided with a suit of black velvet and a flag
by his patrons on reaching Louisville, Ky.,
the dress being devised to impart a romantic
look to the flag-bearer. Meantime word
was passed through the South, and the pro
gross of Sergeant Bates has been made the
occasion for demonstrations by the Secesh
element o! stimulated enthusiasm over the
national flag. Tho whole affair is a very
cheap trick.

purpose, to forward it either by postoffice

Cincinnati, March 27, 1808.
Editor National Republican :
Beau Sta—Our provision market during tho
week past has Lecn in rather aflutter, and prices
advanced considerably, with a good feeling in
the trade generally, which, though tho orders
that were being quietly filled without any reports
being made public, have taken all the bacon that

nothing but small iots are offering, and by weak
parties, at prices under the market. Strong

Wasixibgton, March 29.—Impeachment
rumors are rife. It is very generally re*
ported on the street that ihe President's
counsel will move to dismiss the case, there
being nothing impeachable in the Charges or
replication, and that Chase will sustain the
Nation. High Radical authority hoots at
this. It is confidently stated that Chase will
take the extreme ground, though he may
•laint the power of deciding judicial points
as attaching to his position, but he will put
the question to the Senate aud submit to
their decision.
Evarts has been in New York seeking
authorities, there being no arranged libraries
here, and no time for loose search.
Evarts will arrive in the morning. In the
meantime, the counsel having been sepa
rated, they will go into Court without full
consultation. The President’s counsel see
no cause why tho trial will be prolonged
over two weeks.
Butler’s speech is prepared. He treats
the matter in regular prosecuting attorney
style. After Butler's speech, they will
(quoting one of the managers) “pile in their
witnesses.”
AVade writes <o Grant that under the
law requiring half the registered voters to
vote, tho Constitution of Alabama was not
ratified. He says lie cannot look oil the
result ot the recent election as an expres
sion of opinion that the registered voters do
not desire to be restored under the Consti
tution submitted to them, and in view of
the recent Act of Congress allowing the
majority of votes cast to ratify.
I would prefer seeing the Convention re
assembled for a revision of the Constitution,
and the revised Constitution submitted to
the people under the new law. I am of
opinion a revised Constitution, more liberal
in its terms, aud confined to the require
ments ot the Reconstruction laws, would, in
Alabama, as I have reason to expect it will
in Georgia and F’lorida, meet the approval of
a majority of the registered voters.
Iwo delegations from Florida, each with
Constitutions, are before the Reconstruction
Committee. One is largely represented by
Massachusetts, the other by the Wisconsin
element. The Wisconsin party have Gen.
Meade’s endorsement and forty five signers;
but the Massachusetts party claim that the
delegates signed the Meade Constitution
because otherwise they could get no pay.
The final vote on the Alabama bill, after
the adoption ot a substitute by a vote of 77
to 54, was 102 to 29—t strict party vote,
except Williams, of Pennsylvania.
An order relieving Hancock from the
command of the Fifth Military District, and
his assignment to the command of tlie Di
vision of the Atlantic, was promulgated to
day. Hancock assumes command to morrow,
with headquarters here. His ordeEassuming
command will be issued to morrow.

Congressional.
Washington, March 30.— Senate.—. The
bill regarding appeals from the Court of
Claims was discussed and laid over.
Tennessee’s representatives and Butler’s
bill were resumed.
His relief from political disability meets
earnest opposition. Laid over.
The Alabama bill, as passed by the House,
was read twice and referred to tho Judiciary
Committee.
Chase entered and opened the Court. The
usual formalities followed. The journal was
read.
Chase said the Managers will now proceed
in support of the articles of impeachment.
Butler spoke until four o’clock, concluding
to comparatively a thin house, for the seats
provided for the House Va3 almost empty,
at.i ;he galleries by no means crowded.,
Wilson commenced tho evidence entirely
documentary, and was interrupted in the
middle of the President’s reasons for sus
pending Stanton by a motion to adjourn,
which was carried.
The Tax Committee reported the whiskey
clause, as modified. Frauds are punishable
by fine aud imprisonment. The penalty
covers distillers, dealers, and revenue officers,
and imprisonment is mandatory. Suits shall
not be dismissed or compromised without
consent of the Secretary of the Treasury and
Attorney General. Lumber and flour are
excepted from wholesale tax. Otherwise no
change in the report. Adopted. Adjourned.
House. —The New Jersey resolutions with
drawing iter assent to the Fourteenth
Article was presented.
Boutwell objected to its reception, as it
was not respectful in its charges in accusing
the House with usurpations.
Half past twelve arriving, tho House
went to the impeachment, and after its
return, on motion, the New Jersey resolu
tions were returned to the person who pre
sented them as disrespectful and scanda
lous.
.Revenue Frauds.
Gai.veston, March 29.—Special treasury
agents, Stonnaker and Randall, have de
tected astounding frauds in the revenue
here by means ot a bonded warehouse hav
ing ramifications in New Orleans aud else
where. Several officials are involved in the
frauds—chiefly tobacco and whiskey.
Four hundred barrels of water, three hun
dred empty barrels, and fifty barrels of a
villainous compound, intended for combus
tion to destroy the warehouse and evidences
of fraud, were found. The parties impli
cated have fled.
Politics and Religion.
Boston, March 30. During the session
of Conference of the New England Metho

Rev. Gilbert Haven, reported resolutions

General Grant and Secretary Stanton for
their patriotic conduct. The resolutions
were unanimously adopted, and it was
voted to send copies to the Speaker of the
House, President of the Senate, Stanton,
Grant, and the Chiaf Justiee.

TO CONSUMERS
OF
Soluble Pacific
CUANO
TIIE HIGH CHARACTER ATTAINED BY
this Guano for superior excellence has, it*
appears, instigated the appropriation of the same
name to articles of little or no real value, which
we are credibly informed, are. freely otfered in
New York and other markets with assurance of
genuineness. Hence it becomes necessary, both
for tlie protection of consumers and the PACIFIC
GUANO COMPANY, to call attention to the
tact, in order that proper caution may be ob
served.
The only guarantee the purchaser can have is
that afforded by tne name of the Company’s Gen
eral Agents stencilled on the packages, and buyers
arc advised that unless th-e name of Jno 8. Rkesk
& Cos.. Gen’i. Agents, Baltimore, is found
stencilled on the bags, the Guano is fictitious, aud
not genuine.
