WIT AND WISDOM.
In a rer«nt iuuo of the Cincinnati
Gazette, v« find the following ;
A CoppRMtKAW Borroun.—Wit, like
•verythiug else, !>•« i!» rtiunterleiia.
Tro* humor cheers the deiquHuient, 1*
frvahe* the wearv. dispel, the morbid
of the mi mV and bring* hack iu
powwr* to their normal action. It* base
imitation appeals to the lower sen sou,
proatitutes 'he nobhr instincts, ridicules
that which oho should deplore, und
acofls at all that is lovely ami ot good
req-ort. In tin. hitter department, Mr.
c. F. jbtvwnc, Imtter known as Artc
mua Ward, baa made himself notorious.
Ho hai no power of originating anc
thing laughable, but possesses the
(acuity ol reramjiino and entrancing
old saws, and concerting to his on n use
other persons’ inventions. He is s ;.
ambulating repository of second hand
ami stolen goods, furnished over and
altered sutKcieutlr to couceal their
ownership from 1 rdinary observers. A
Copperhead by education and instincts,
he has ever shown the characteristics
of that re ptile genus. In the South, he
ain lined rebel audiences by jokes about
tieuera! Butler and silver spoons, and
sneers at inteilificiit contrabands. He
has now gone to England, where his
tlunkeyisru has a tine fi.dd for displnv.
In his contribution to Punch, he has
taken side with the lories, am) has
opened his batteries on tlie working
men. Himsei! a mechanic, he has sold
himself to the oppressors of the toiling
class to which he belonged. Our rend
ers know that the extension of suffrage
to the industrial masses is the great
question <>f rhe day in England ; that
tlie workmen ot the old country, under
the championship oMoltn Bright, ure
striving to obtain a voice in the Gov
ernment. 11l ti e lij.it of the battle a

“N it hr no mean.." tie answers! : and
♦ hen he said, “And what is your opinyiu of
the preaem crisis;'"
I said, l i n't ractly know. Have you
got it 1 cry bad ?"
He replied, “Sir. it is sweepin’ over Eng
land like the Cyuionn of the Desert 1"
*' A elf," I said, "iet it sweep!"
lie ceased me by the arm and said, “Let
us glance at hist ry. It is now some tivo
thousand years
“is it, indeed ?" X replied.
“Listen !“ b» fiercely cried; “it is only a
little over two thousand years since "
“Ob. brother!” I remarkt, “let us go out
and get some beer."
“No, sir. 1 want no gross and sensual
beer. I'll not move from this spot till lean
Vote. Mho ar you?"
I handed him my card, which, in addi
tion to my name, contains a elabrit deserip
tmn of my show. “Now, sir," 1 proudly
said, “you know me.”
“I soUuutly swear,” he sternly replied,
tViiit I never heard of you, or vour show,
in my life V*
“And this man,” I cried bitterly, “calls
hisseif a intelligent man, and thinks he
orter be allowed to vote ! What a hollor
luockerv 1”
i vc no objection to sv’ry intelligent man
vot.n, if he wants to. Its a pica-ant
amoosement, no doubt; but there ar tho<e
whowtgarance is 5u .lets, aol loatbsum
that they shoo da’t l>e tru<tid with a |,.,i|; t

Artemus is a member of the “great
Democratic party,” and the trail of the

Artemns has unpanbmed

nionopoli.w!.s can fi:»<! no more willing
and .supple too!. Democracy has no

Und.-r the garb of homely language,
or bad auth ,graph)-, many sound and

it is not alone in smoothly rbuiided’sen.
tenets, or gilded phrases and glim
periods that truth is to be found! Amidst
the beauties of Rhetor!ami the :. j
pleadings of a false Logic, falsehood may
be so covered up as to be entirely hid
den from view, or so completely dis
£-'Vd as to be mistaken for 'truth.
Hence, in the humorous productions of
Artemns Ward, and of crown “ Bill
Arp ' (so-called), facts have been «. iven
to the world, which might, otherwise
never have seen the light. And truths’
told in this way oftentimes have a
keener and more cutting edge than if
they had been told in more respectable
and kingly English. They crop out, as
it were, valuable stones from the coarser
structure which overlies them ; or, more
correctly, like diamonds in the darker
soil which surrounds them.
With those,with whom these truths are
agreeahh, the authors are popular ; and

So will, Artemus Ward. J!* ] >h ' rai “ : -
t. .1 v ni;n he n,i.
voeatcdtbewar.tbe people oflhc
looked o*l him as n most comical „
Now that he advocates
and ridicules Radicalism, the Uadka' 1
party denounce him as a •‘Copp,.,.| u , a ') i
Buffoon,” and bis writings miserablo
imitations of other peoples 7 wit. Well
we are not here to defend Artemns
Ward against the Radicals in general
or the Cincinnati Gazelle in particular,
lie is fully able to champion his own
cause against that veracious and witty
sheet. We only desire to say that,
whether a Copperhead or a Buffoon, or
a real “jokist,” he has, in our judgment,
uttered a truism, when lie declares, in
Bubstance, that there are some whose
ignorance is so great that they should
not be trusted with the ballot, any more
than one of his trained serpents should
he trusted with a child to play with.
The idea of universal suffrage is a
GRAND OPENING NIGHT
homltng, a wickad delusion. and a Also
theory in poetical II to l
placing of the dost:;,li H rtf a gfe.tt
nation in the hand* of im uncivilizeil
and ignorant nods is a most egregious
, ‘ rrvr and a mo*t dangerous folly, to
chart) ottruu it by no harsher terms;
yet there is a party in this country who
are openly ami boldly advocating this
policy, aud not only advocating it, but
attempting tv force it* adoption UpOU
the country. \l licthcr the intelligence
aad patriotism of th* cuujitry anR permit
it, remains to be s*ep.
Be advocate no aristocracy vs sorit-n
■•r politics, but that of intelligence hhd
moral worth. These are attributes which
every patriot should ilrivu to
and qualification* which every voter
should lie repaired to poeSes. With
tlicso attributes and these qualifications,
tlie purity of the ballot liux could Vo
preserved, and the Repuldio lie uustuin
ed. \V itltout them, or ratberwith univer
sal suffrage th« one is corrupfed, and
tlie other destroyed. Tt vs no wonder,
therefore, that the Radical Cincinnati
Gazette howls over the home thrust us.
“A. Ward," aud denounces him for
having ‘Hoallied to unpaoloivi traitiTsf'
aad for “licking the feet of an arrogant
oligarchy.” Its party cunartt tolerate
truth, and turns pule with rage, when it
discover* it even in the epiuic produc
tions of a funny showman.
Let Artemus go on. If he continues
to combine wit with wisdom, and to ad
vacate Conservatism, even in his comic
I style, his name and his “wax worst”
i will be kindly and pleasingly rente m
i bered, when the ominous title of the
! Cincinnati Gazette audits wicked mis
| representations of the South are sunk in
i oblivion, or remembered only with re
j gret und contempt
To Piubkxts Nuwsp.u'Kßa The
! following have heeu published before,
but as it is seldom we meet with so much
ini.h and good sense comprised in so
small a spacer, it will do no harm to
duplicate it:
A child beginning to read heepmes
I delighted with a newspaper, because lie
j reads of names and things which are
! very familiar, and lie will make pro.
! gress accordingly. A newspaper in one
year (says Mr. Weeks) is worth a quar
ter's schooling to a child, and every
father must consider that substantial in
formation is connected with this ad
vancement. The mother of a family,
being.one of its beads, and having a
more inmunliate charge of children,
should herself be instructed. A mind
occupied becomes fortified against the
ills of life, and is bred for any emer
gency. Children amused by reading or
study are. of course, considerate and j
more easily governed. How manv
thoughtless young men have spent their
earnings in a tavern or grog shop, who
ought to have been reading! How
many parents, who never spent twenty
dollars for books for their families,
would gladly have given thousands to
reclaim a son or daughter, who had ig
norantly and thoughtlessly fallen into
tern ptatioa.
A Sad Talk of Destitution. —The
Montgomery Advertiser tells a sad tale
of destitution in that vicinity. The
widow of a soldier, who died in Confed
erate service, was found dead on the
tlour of her house, with four little girls
lying round her. They were taken to
the Episcopal Orphans’ Home, where
iwoot them died, and another, it was
thought, would net recover. The poor
; I,ulh things were complete skeletons,

Jndg# if the Superior Court, Mid*
die Cirotrit.
.V errs. Editors: In Jnmmrv next, if
I mistake not, the Voters of this circuit
will be called on to select a Judge of the
Superior t’nurt. The times demand of
the person filling that position the pos
session vs a clear and vigorous mind,
and one whose judgment will not lie
tempered by llie popular hreere. It is
«<l place for a politician or demagogue—
bill rather should be occupied by a
sound lawyer and a man of unbending
integrity. None will dispute the asser
tion that there is no tuau in the Circuit
who fwottld fill that position with
greater honor than' William A. Walton,
Esq. Horn and reared in our midst, we
all know him to he a man who, "looking
down with scorn on fho false judgment
ot the too partial masses, consults his
own dear heart,*ai(d' boldly dares to lie,
not thought, an honest man.”
V> ith a heart ever open to the cry of
tin- widow and fatherless, a purse never
dosed to the npj qnU of the needy aud
suffering, he makes no ostentatious dis
play of his charity. Asa lawyer, ire.
would scorn the chicanery and mean
trickery of the pettifogger. With him
all is straightforward, manly and honest,
and no client ever suffered at his hands
by his pursuing such a course.—
The fact is patent to every oue who is
connected with the operations of the
Court that the judge should he a citizen
of Augusta. I therefore nominate
William A. Walton, Esq., for that posi
‘ion. Cxtizk.v.

Mr, Editor: The writer, not in the
habit of communicating through the
public journals, would submit a remark
nr two on the importance of the early
completion of the Columbia and Au
gusta Railroad.
We learn that the consideration of
this master has been before the City
Council, and hope that they will act
liberally on the subject. Now is the
time dor Augusta to net. and this may
be the opportunity, and the last one she
may have.
We regard this road as more im
portant to the City of Augusta thati.miv
one projected lor the last twenty years, J
It will restore the through trade this
city has lost, and it will bring back
more local trade I ban we have ever
enjoyed.
It will add overot>« hundred thousand
dollars in value to the stoek this city
has in the Milledgevi'le Railroad, by
throwing a large through travel on it,
thereby adding largely to the trade and
travel of this city, a*id increase its tax
able means very yreally, perhaps add
ve thousand, or ten thousand, dollars
to her treasury annually,-thus giving her
greatly increased credit.
These very great advantages to onr
city can scarcely be doubted. We sub
scribed five hundred thousand dollars to
the Milledgeville road j this read (Co
lumbia and Augusta), is of more im
portance by far to Augusta than that.
Besides, .should this road fail, the air
line road flora Atlanta to Anderson will
be certain to be constructed. Where
turn will Augusta be? We do not
think our citizens appreciate the ini
ponuiice to Augusta of this road.
Its benefits to Augusta will 1 J(! second
to no oilier city, or interest. Is it not
our duty, then, through our City Fathers,
10 step forward and aid it into being?
The opportunity is offered, let us avail
ourselves of it, and secure ten fold bene
fits. by taking two bundled thousand
dollars of stock—l<lfc than one half the
' ,uin wu subscribed to a road of much
oss importance, and whose slock will
♦ ever pay without the Columbia and
Augusta Hoad is built.
