Hard to Please.
Onr good Democratic friends are hard to
please. Since Order No. 51 has been promul
gated there seems to be no language suffi
ciently denunciatory of “Gen. Meade and his
tyranny" (as they are pleased to cail it),
which they can find to use—“D. P. o.”
(Damn Pkool Order), —“one man power,”
“Military supremacy,” etc., etc. It is pass
ing strange that such is the case, for the
reason that every effort they make in opposi
tion to the reestablishment of a regular civil
government in the State, and every vote
they give against Reconstruction is but add
ing to the chances for a continuance of mili
tary government in the State of Georgia, and
necessarily—if they (should be successful—
continue for an indefinite time the very thing
they so much deprecate, abuse and curse.
If we wish an evil abated, we think the
wisest, and of course the best, course to pur
suers not to go to work with might and
main to increase the chances for its continu
ance, but to use every means in our power
to remove it.
We cannot but think that the Democratic
party of the South—Georgia particularly—
led on by unwise counsels from zealous
monomaniacs of the Ben Hill, Kanse Wright
and Gordon school, assisted by the yelping
crowd of newspaper men tacked on to them
like a tail to a kite, are doing themselves not
only injury but injustice to their common
sense.
The “rank and file” of the Democratic
party, who suffer their rights and interests
to be entrusted to such leaders, deserve
commiseration for their blindness. They
cannot surely see the folly of the course
pursued ; ior if they could do so, we cer
tainly will give them the credit to say that
we believe they would at once cut oft from
such associations. Until this Union is re
stored—until Georgia is an integral part of
it again—it is a species of blindness and
folly unsurpassed to suppose for a moment
that a healthy state of business, of mechani
cal labor, or of agricultural labor, can again
bless the land. Every vote, therefore,
against the Constitution and the Republican
party now, is an error fatal to the idea of an
early resumption of civil law, peace, and
order- For it is clearly inevitable that a
defeat of the new Constitution, and of the
Party supporting it, even by default, bribery,
or other disreputable means, but extends
the so much dreaded military power, pre
vents a return to civil government, and but
defers the final end, with all the discom-
forts, disappointments, and disagreements
thereunto attending upon such a state of
affairs. Such being the case, why will you
Democrats of Georgia be longer used as the
puppets by those who seek not your good,
but their ambitious ends?
HON. HENRY WILSON FOR GEN.
GRANT.
YVe find in our exchanges the following;
Senate Chamber, |
YY’ashington, March 30. )
My Dear Sir ; In a communication to the
Anti Slavery Standard yon say that “Sena
tor YVilson works for Grant, who is no
Radical, and objects toother candidates who
are Radicals, because they sometimes drink.”
I am sure you do not intend to be unjust,
but you certainly have placed me in a false
position. For thirty seven years I have been
a pledged temperance man, and I have
striven to be faithful to a cause my heart
loves and my judgment approves. While I
have ever regarded intemperance to be a
terrible calamity to humanity and a sin
against God, I have always felt the deepest
pity and sympathy for all whose lives were
blighted by it. I know of no Radical whose
name has been mentioned for the Presidency
who gets drunk, or to whoso nomination I
have objected because he sometimes drinks.
I have seen General Grant in the camp, in
his office, at his own house, and at dinner
parties, where liquors were freely used by
others, but I have never seen him drink even
a glass of wine, nor have I ever seen him
when I had the slightest reason to think he
was in any degree under the influence of
drink.
You say further, that 1 work for Grant,
who is not a Radical. I have done little
■work for General Grant, for it was not
necessary .that any one should work for
him. The Republicans of nearly every
State, with great unanimity, have pro
nounced for him, hut this result was not
achieved by work, but by the needs of the
country and tha instincts of a patriotic and
liberty-loving people. I took occasion,
more than four years ago, to express, on
the floor of the Senate, my conviction that a
patriotic and liberty-loving people, betrayed
1 by the President, would turn to that great
soldier and summon him to marshal them
to victory. Thirty-two years ago I fully
committed myself to the anti-slavery cause,
and I have striven with voice and vote to
advance it to its final and crowning
triumph, It was because I was an anti
slavery man—a Radical Republican—be
cause I believed tho cause of equal and
impartial liberty to be above the ambitions
and interests of public men, and because I
' believed General Grant would carry that
cause to assured victory, that 1 turned to
him as the Presidential candidate of the
Republican party. I know him to be an
honest, just and firm man, whoso fidelity to
his country and to the equal rights of all his
countrymen cannot be questioned.
Gladly would I have welcomed some one
of the anti slavery men, if such nomination
could have assured the success of our cause
in the great struggle of this year. But the
| pioneer anti-slavery men have ever been
forced by tho needs of their struggling
cause to be self-sacrificing and self-forgetful.
The self sacrificing spirit and self-forgetful
ness have achioTcd glorious victories for
humanity in tho past, and I trust will win
in the future the election of a President
under whoso administration the unity of
the country will be assured, and the equal
rights and privileges of all citizens secured.
Yours truly, Henry Wilson.

i a liilKii>*’ Provision Exchange.
Cincinnati, April 3, ISOS.
Editor National Republican :
Dear Sir: The provision market, early in
tho week, was quiet, but as tho week advanced,
the feeling grew stronger and prices of all
articles mater-ally advanced with the exception
of Lard. The feeling growing stronger from
day to day, there has, perhaps, been but few
seasons when the tone of the market has heen
as strong so early with as much good reason as
this. The supply of summer hogs is extremely
light, and country points are ordering their
supplies from city points. The advance in
Cotton has stimulated the South, and factories
are now more willing aud able to assist plante s
with loans to plaut another crop. These facts,
together with tho large foreign demand, has
done much to damage prices of provisions, and
our holders feel confident in higher prices in the
future. Tho market closes strong for all articles
as quoted below.
MESS PORK h;i3 advanced to $25.00, with
few buyers, but is generally held at $25.75a2fi
for city—country 25 to 50c less, according to
quality.
RUMPS are in extraordinary demand, and
sell at $lB to 21—as in quality.
LARD is dull undci foreign advices, hut city
can’t bo had under K*o, and choice country ie
less, and same forprimo steam. Keg held at 17c,
but little in market.
UREASES firm and scarce, at 11 to 14c, for
the range of grades.
BULK MEATS have advanced, and are in
large demand at 12$, 13, 14 and 14A for Shoul
ders sides, clear rib, and clear sides, all loose,
but held i higher, llama in good demand at
14Jc for choice cuts.
BACON has also advanced, closing firm, with
buyers of shoulder.-, sides, clear rib and clear
sides at 12, 14, 15, and 15$c, but holders gene
rally demand jc over these figures. Plain hams
lfi£c, sugar cured hams 17i to ISJc, canvassed
and packed.
PLATE BEEF.—Useless to quoto it, it is so
scare that it can only bo had at fancy prices.
EXPORTS of the week: 1,056 bbls. and 869
kegs of Lard; 1,212 hhds. and 1,732 tres. bulk
and Bacon ; 6,079 bbls Pork, and 166,465 lbs.
loose Meats.
IMPORTS.—7BB bbls and 257 kegs of Lard ;
2,055 bbls Pork and 1.228,889 lbs. of loose Meats.
FREIGHTS will advance soon to 55, 60, 65a70
all rail to Baltimore, Philadelphia, New York
and Boston. Southern freights unchanged, but
changeable from day to day.

Healing' the Sick
BY Ts! K
LAVING ON OF HANDS
OR
ANIMAL MAGNETISM!
PROFESSOR ROBERTS, LATE OF NEW
Orleans and Memphis, tho great Magnetic
Healer, will treat all manner of Diseases and
Afflictions, not incurable, at tiie AUGUSTA
HOTEL, Augusta, Ga., until May Ist, 1868.
Hy Annual Magnetism we claim that the dis
eased aud deranged action of the nervous and
vacnlar systems are restored to a perfect equilib
rium much more readily than hy any othtr means
known to the medical world, either iu the ] -esent
or the past ages. ‘ Nature must do the heali.
is the saving of every sensible and honest phy i
cian, ana that “all we can do in case of sickness
is to aid Nature.” This Prof. Roberts aims to do
hy the great science of Animal Magnetism, and
that., too, without drugs! It is the only system of
the medication that has God as its authority and
example, or that can be sustained hy science or
common sense.
Consultation free. Letters to he answered must
be accompanied with a stamp. For testimonials
see or send tor circular.
Prof. Roberts treats successfully the following
named diseases, together with many other forms
of human maladies not herein specified, viz :
All diseases of the Brain, Rheumatism, Nervous
Debility, Neuralgia, Weak Spine, Curvature of
the Spine, Intiamed Sore Eyes, Paralysis, Weak
Eyes, Partial Blindness, Dropsical Tumors,Ulcers,
Scrofula iu its varied forms, Consumption, Dia
betes, Weakness of the Limbs, Bronchitis, Loss of
Voice, Palpitation of the Heart, Diseases of the
Liver, Kidneys, and Bowels, Dyspepsia, Falling
of the Womb, Suppressed Menses, Catarrh, all
kinds of Sexual Diseases, Impurities of the Blood,
etc., etc. Paralysis and Deafness are the most
uncertain of all diseases to cure, although patients
afflicted even with these terrible maladies will be
moreorlesß beuefitted, if not cured, by Magnetic
Treatment.

Augusta, Ga., March 12,1868.
I hereby certify that I have heen partially para
lyzed for four years. Four mouths of that time I
was not able to make a step, or even bo much as
move one of my toes on either foot, and was en
tirely destitute o! feeling in my legs.
I was examined by forty eight Confederate
Army Surgeons, all pronouncing me incurable—
having Curvature of the Spine, which produced
paralysis. I commenced taking treatment of Pro
lessor Roberts, March 4th, 1868, and now, after
taking nine treatments, by Animal Magnetism , 1
feel like a “new creature!” 1 can now stand up,
and wal/c any desired distance, without crutches
or canes , which was utterly impossible Jor more
than four years before seeing Dr. Roberts.
For reputation and responsibility, I refer those
interested to Mr. W. A. Ramsey, Mr. Edward
liodgers, Mr. John M. Clark, Mr. Nicholas Young
blood, and Mr. John Houston, all of Augusta, Ga.

This is to certify that. I have been treated hy
Prof. Roberts for a dropsical tumor iu the left side,
with which 1 have been afflicted for the last seven
years, and am confident that I am entirely cured,
not having experienced any of the unpleasant
symptoms which 1 did before' the treatment, and

This certifies that I have heen a great euft'erer
with Rheumatism for live years, my left, ankle
being much swollen, very still' and painful. 1.
was treated twice only bv Dr. Roberts, at the
Augusta Hotel. February 18th and 20th, 1868, and
now have not one symptom of Rheumatism or
pain in my body. AH tile medicine I had taken
seemed to make me worse, and i never had
any rehef until I was t reated magnetically. People
may laugh ; hut I have no more rheumatic
pants -that’s so.

I have heen a hopeless invalid for the weary
space of ten or Uvelve years, laboring under a
combination of dreadful disease;; which hav long
since been pronounced inenrab.e. I had of 'a*e
grown rapidly worse, until three days since I w..s
brought to this city on a bed, being entirely nuabie
to sit up, for the purpose of consulting the far
famed Prof. Roberts. After the first treatment,
wltich was only a few minutes, f was free of all
pain and able to walk anywhere, aud to-day I fee!
so well and strong I can scarcely realize that I
am tiie same being who was so feeble aud suffer
ing so ranch three days since. I cau never express
my heartfelt gratitude to the man whose wonder

sible suffering. May God bless the Doctor
wherever he goes, is my humble prayer.

In June, ISO", I was residing in ilemphis,
Tcnu. I have been suffering from Piles for
twenty-eight years, the last eight of which I had
been almost unfitted for business of any kind,
and had no hope of a euro. A nephew of mine
had suffered fiftoeu years with tho same complaint;
lie went to Philadelphia, was four months under
Dr. Pancost; submitted to an operation with the
knifo, and was finally cured, for which he paid
ono thousand dollars, besides his expenses to and
from Philadelphia. I called on Professor Roberts
and received threo treatments, by Animal slag
neticism, at his hands, and was entirety cured,
and am well; yet, for which I paid twenty dol
lars. I would not to-day he placed again in tho
condition you found me ten months ago, and
with as little hope of a cure as I bad before your
three treatments, for twenty thousand dollars.
Very truly yours,

This certifies that 1 have suffered exceedingly
with a large tumor on the left side of my tace tor
twenty-live years. During this age of torture it
lias been removed twice by paiuful surgical opera
tiona, which only seemed to aggravate its growth.
When l)r. Roberts came to Atlanta 1 took treat
meat hy Animal Magnetism, and have heen
greatly beuefitted hr him—in point.of truth, more
than by the entire liccuty-sevc n “regular” doctors
wiio have attended me.
Under the treatment., the tumor softened and re
duced in size, the hearing iu my left car has heen
restored, aud my left arm, which was almost use
less, has been restored to its original strength. I
can now sleep on my left side—a thing 1 could uot
do tor many- years before. I firmly believe if 1
could continue tiie treatment the tumor would
entirely disappear. M us. J. G. McLIN.
