Southern Representation In
Congress.
The New York Times, of April 2d.
contains an editorial on “the South and
Congress,’’ in which the position is very
justly assumed that the South ought to
be represented in Congress; that in many
things the Southern States are suffering
for want of proper legislation; and that
the condition and wants of the South
cannot be known unless she is properly
represented. We have taken the ground
heretofore that it was of no very great
importance to our section to be repre
sented in Congress, becauscfwe know
that our enemies have a majority in that
body, and our Senators and Representa
tives, even united with the Democratic and
Conservative members, would be in a
hopeless minority, and would only be
the recipients of reproaches and insult.
For this reason we deem it unnecessary
to bother ourselves about Congressional
representation; but that does not make
the position of the Times any the less
correct. We have a right to representa
tion iu the grand council of the Nation.
The President has declared, by public
proclamation, that the “insurrection’’ is
at an end, and that all the Constitutional
rights and privileges of the late rebel
lious, but now loyal, States, should be
restored to those States. Our loyalty
has been tried and found worthy of con
fidence; we have been put upon a long
probation, and found worthy of full
membership in the Union of States.
Then why shonld we still be debarred
from this right of representation? It is
a right; and we are entitled to it. But
suppose that this right was granted to us
by Congress, the oath” has not been
repealed, and as our Senators and Rep
resentatives could not take that oath, we
should still be deprived of the exercise
of this right. And still further suppose
that that oath was abolished, and our
members admitted, they would bo, as we
have already said, powerless in all that
concerns the good of their section ; and,
therefore, we had better not put our
selves to any great Rouble to secure a
right, the exercise of which will be in no
ways beneficial to us.
The Times thinks that, for instance,
Southern members could give some light
upon the subject of an export tax upon
Cotton, and aid legislation in a great
many ways. Now, suppose that our
Representatives were present, and should
give their views upon this or any other
subject, does the Times believe fora mo
ment that such an expression would have
any effect upon the Radicals, unless it
agreed with their views ? If our cotem
porary does, it has a larger and more
generous faith than we have. If, how
ever, Congress would do justice to our
section, it can ascertain the views of our
leading planters, merchants and politi
cians, and obtain any information which
will aid it in legislating, not only for the
South, but for the whole Union.
The Times finds it difficult, also, to
ascertain anything definite in regard to
the South from Southern newspapers.
The views of such journals are so vari
ant and conflicting that nothing but
confusion can result to the public judg
ment. We think our cotemporary has
not read such papers very carefully ; for
we think that there is a very harmoni
ous and patriotic tone pervading the
Southern press, which is disturbed by
conflicting views in very few instances.
We all harmonize upon the platform of
Andrew Johnson; we all harmonize as
to our rights under the Constitution;
and we all harmonize upon the necessity
of our people devoting themselves to
developing the resources of the South
ern States, and rebuiling the shattered
fortunes and ruined homesteads destroy
ed and desolated by the ravages of the
late disastrous war. In all this we
agree, and we believe that there is no
Southern journal that is very anxious
for Congressional representation; cer
tainly no Southern journal or Southern
citizen, but, it he could be relieved of
military occupation, the suspension of
the habeas corpus, and the Freedmen’s
Bureau, but would relinquish that other
privilege to which our Northern cotem
porary justly and kindly enough, thinks
we are entitled.

—A formal, fashionable visitor thus
addressed a little girl : “How are you,

she replied. The visitor then added :
“Now, my dear, you should ask me how

—'The following notice was recently
found posted on a tree, by some old
curmudgeon who was too mean and

“Lost—a red caf. He had a white spot

—Broke into the pocket of the Editor

The Worth of Time. —To show us
the worth of time, God, most liberal of
all other things, is exceedingly frugal in
the dispensing of that; for he never
gives us two moments together, nor
grants us a second till he has withdrawn
the first, still keeping the third in his
own hands, so that we are in a perfect
uncerainty whether we shall have it or
not. The true manner of preparing for
the last moment is to spend all the others
well, and ever to expect that. We dote
upon this world as if it were hever to
have an end, and we neglect the next, as
if it were never to have a beginning.
—Batty, an English lion tamer, came
near losing his head a short time ago,
while giving an exhibition in Paris.
He placed his head in the mouth of a
lioness, at the same time holding his
hands behind his back, when a convul
sive movement of the animal's jaws
caused its teeth to inflict deep wounds
on each side of the man’s forehead, from
which the blood flowed profusely. A
cry of horror arose from the spectators
and numbers made a rush to leave the
building, but Batty, without losing his
presence of mind, called for a pocket
handkerchief, wiped the traces of the
accident from his face, and then firing a
revolver to drive the animals from be

JOSEPH JONES, M. D.
Profersur of Medical Chemisttv >" the Mtdtcah
College of Georgia, at Augveta; and
formerly Surgeon in the
Provieional Army of the Confederate States.
The SOUTHERN MEDICAL and SIR
GICAI, JOURNAL, of Augusta, Georgia,
was established in 1836, by the late Professor
Milton Antony, the illustrious founder of
the Medical College of Georgia, and has al
ways commanded the respect and patronage
of the Profession, not only as oiro of tbe
oldest and largest American Periodicals,
butcliictly by those valuable original com
munications, contributed by tbe most emi
nent, scientific men and practitioners of the
Southern States, which have enriched its
pages during tho past thirty years. Tho
volumes already issued,’ embrace over six
teen thousand closely printed pages, con
taining more than six hundred original
communications fronf professional men
throughout the Southern States, besides an
immense number of valuable articlee, select
ed from its ample list of American and
foreign exchanges.
During the recent’eivil war. the publica
tion of the SOUTHERN MEDICAL AND
SURGICAL JOURNAL was necessarily sus
pended. At tbe close of a bloody and dis
astrous war, which has ended in the destruc
tion and surrender of the Southern armies,
and in the destruction and capture of the
archives of the Confederate Government, and
of the immense stores of medical facts and
observations accumulated by the Medical
Officers of the Confederate Army, under the
direction of their intelligent and efficient
Surgeon General, it is believed by medical
men of the highest standing in this section
of the South, that it is important to estab
lish at this time a Medical Periodica! of
sufficient size to furnish ample room lor the
publication of the valuable experience of the
Medical Officers of tho lato Confederate
Army.
It will be the earnest effort of the Editor
to sus’ain tbe former usefulness of this
Journal as a medium for the communica
tion of the discoveries and advancing doc
trines of science and of all tho departments
of Medicine, and of the facts and discove
ries tending to develop the material pros
perity of the South, and especially of the
valuable Medical statistics and observations
of the recent disastrous revolution.
In view of the good accomplished in times
past bv the publication of the SOUTHERN
MEDICAL AND SURGICAL JOURNAL,
the Editor feels no hesitation in urging its
claims upon its former patrons and friends.
The SOUTHERN MEDICAL AND SUR
GICAL JOURNAL will be issued every
TWO MONTHS, commencing Ist of July,
1866, and each number will contain ONE
HUNDRED AND SEVENTY-SIX PAGES
of printed matter, (octavo); tbo yearly
publication will therefore number Ooe
Thousand and Fifty-six pages, and be equal
in size to the largest American and Euro
pean Journals.

Georgia Home insurance Company.
fT IS WITH PLEASURE THAT WE
-L copy tbe following notice of tbe above
Company from the Atlanta Net c Era. In this
community. Its reliability and promptness m
immediately paying all losses, is well known,
and renders it an institution of pn<le to our
citizens. Its officers are courteous gentlemen,
with vears of experience in the business, to
which fact, coupled with their eminent fitness
for the position, its remarkable prosperity
must be mainly attributed. The Era says:
Acts Sceax Loudek ruts Words.— »e are
gratified to learn on inquiry that thp Insurance
Company which paid so promptly its loss by
the fire on the corner of Whitehall and Decatur
streets, is a Southern Company, and none other
than that reliable institution of our State. The
Georgia Home InsuraxcrCompant otColumbns.
of which Mr. Juo C. Whitner is Agent. The
payment was made within twelve hoars after
the first cry of fire was heard, whilst smoke
was still issuing from the ruins. No third
partv came forward to sift and feel about for
Haws, but the Agent issuing the policy also
make 9 the payment just so soon as satisfied of
its justness. , . .
We ask our merchants and citizens to note
these facts. The cry has been raised that all
Southern Companies were totally ruined. The
answer to this is, their investments were made
before the war, and wereneverehanged. Their
loss, therefore, was merely the profits and the
labors for four years—though some, like the
Georgia llohe. Have even coine out better than
they entered the war. It is false that they are
insolvent. A most remarkable feature of
Southern Companies is theabsence of "Special
Agents” and -Adjusters” to settle up losses.
They go on the presumption that the man they
appoint as agent is honest and capable, suffi
ciently so to be entrusted with the responsible
duty of making out a policy premising to pay
you in case of loss, and sufficiently so as to pay
itp losses when they do occur, When. there
fore, you insure with them, your last transac
tion is witii the s«me man—your friend, your
neighbor, yonr fellow-citizen—with whom your
first occurred.
We do not mean to be sectional in our ad
vice, but we do think when we can build up
ourselves and our own people at the same cost
and with greater a ivantage to ourselves, it is
our dutv’to do so. There are a number of
Southern Companies represented here who are
perfectly relianle.
Call oh that experienced Insurance man and
polite Southern gentleman, Mr. Whitner, at
Met. amy A* Co.’s Drug Store, and he will give
you a list that will surprise you.
