fbf Paily press. City Printer Official Paper I.AKKKST my* riKmATION. A I'O U(<TA, OA.i TIIIBSUAY MORNING 0.1, 4, ihm 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 citizen cf Republican America thus attempts to ridieu’O those who gain their bread by toil . ait as his own hands hai- >uii : w *“ : : :■ s i. w Ulinits. ha.lt.-> ■ in the !;.,•> :,. ts when a stern lookin' art:-an - uj to : “Vi 11 *r Item iVaies ;• “A 1 *, .1 told Lint i didn't think I was. lias my clotbin a ttulchy appearance ?" “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.

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 any more n one of my trained serpents should be trusted win, a child play with.

Artemns has unpanbmed traitors, if. is now licking the tect. „f *" ar, ': , ~ ;l, ‘ l oligarchy. The British nionopoli.w!.s can fi:»<! no more willing and .supple too!. Democracy has no better exponent. Und.-r the garb of homely language, or bad auth ,graph)-, many sound and wholesome tr itlis may be aiteicj ; fa 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 " ,h wWu lh<! -V displace equally j ? r P ?’ mUr - Whan, therefore.

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.

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. jcoilVt'MCATKll.j 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.
