both men and boys can be supplied with
a spring style hat at from 15 cents to $6
each.
Boots and Shoes.—There is no
thing like dry feet for preserving the

dry feet, buy your shoes at Blodgett &

Personal. —His Excellency, Charles
J. Jenkins, was in the City on yesterday,
on his way to Washington, for the pur
pose, we presume, of consulting with the
authorities there in reference to political
affairs.
Jvdge Lochkane —This gentleman
was in our City on yesterday. We learn
from those who conferred with him, that
he favors the line of policy indicated in
the meetings recently- held at Atlanta
and Tbomasville.

violatiou'of the 18tb section were tried
yesterday, and fined §7.50, §4.00, §3.00,
and §2.50.
Two cases for violation of the 18th
section—hitching horses to the market
railing—were required to contribute $1
each to the contingent fund, and sent
on their way.
Valuable Table. —We publish in
another place, a table, showiug the
value, per bushel, of different grains,
under the new cental system, recently
adopted in the Western markets. It
will be valuable to all who are interested
*u any of the markets where the new
system prevails, and should be preserved.
Copies on card board may be had at
our counting room.
Arrested. —A freedman, named
Dave Johnson, implicated in the rob
bery of the store of J. & T. A. Bones,
a lew nights ago, was arrested, and a
portion ot the stolen goods recovered.
ibe “taking ways” of our police force
are becoming proverbial, 'iheir vigi
lance in terreting out offenders and
bringing them to justice, ought to satisfy
law breakers that this is an unhealthy
latitude for them.
A Candid \ new.—A liadical corres
pondent of the Pittsburg Chronicle, who
a few months ago passed through iialti
more, Norfolk, Richmond, Petersburg,
Raleigh, Charlotte, Columbia, Charles
ton, Augusta, Atlanta, Montgomery,
Mobile, New Orleans, Jackson, Mem
l phis, Louisville, Frankfort, and other
places, alludes to the kind treatment
everywhere extended him, though he
everywhere urged the acceptance of the
Constitutional Amendment. He taya
that Mr. Monroe expends more than his
sa ary in benevolence, and about four
ousand souls are dependant upon his
employment for daily bread.
He was permitted to mako a speech
in the North Carolina Legislature, im
me late 'f adjournment, and re
prove them for rejecting the Constitu
tional Amendment. In his whole trip
« card hut two men express a desire
ui more fighting. He says though (in
his opinion) they ginned in taking up
arms, the people honestly surrendered
w hen they laid them down.
Th* “ee«*e**blj** orgaa” (so called)
up the suget, of Friday, say* that:
The greateat danger which threaten*
oa just uow, ia the poMihility of ditia

in the State strive to prevent auch a con
dition of affairs. It i« too apparent,
that if we divide, Radical amisanries.
aided hy a few mean Southern whites,
aril! b<*in to manipulate and cajole the
blarka. If we but remain united, the
black element in cur midst will ha as
day in tlie [-otter's hands, taking such
impressions nud directions os we may
cbooes to make and direct.
If, hy remaining united is meant
iuactioe under the Sherman bill, is
there not a very strong and reasonable
probsbiltty that “Radical emissaries”
will be the only potters allowed to
manipulate th* “black element ?” and
does not the following from the county
organ across the way encourage “the
greatest danger which threatens us just
now"— “the possibility of divisions
among ourselves ?
A Speech. — Joseph, not the ancient
Joseph who lost his coat and saved his
honor, but Joseph E„ the modern Mil
ledgevillean, who used to egg Morse on
in his abuse of Mr. Davis. (Morse ought
to intercede with Th&d. Stevens- for
Joseph); Joseph who interfered with
the transportation of food over tbe State
Road to starving Confederate soldiers;
Joseph, who, scouted Mr. Davis’ ideu
of freeing the slaves and enlisting them
in the army ; Joseph, who, in violation
of the Confederate Constitution, which
he swore to support, sought to force for
eigners and aliens into the service of
the “sovereign” State of Georgia (Joe.
Gov.) thereby compelling many to flee
to South Carolina tor refuge; Joseph,
who, while Georgia was one of the
United States, seized Fort Pulaski;
Joseph, who preached and prseticsd
secession, while Gov. Jenkins—a Union
man—boldly attempted to stay the tide
and influence his State, but weut with
her out of the Union, stood by and still
clings to her —Joseph, this Joseph,
speaks a piece, and advises Chas. J.
Jenkins, Governor of Georgia! o,tem
jx>ra! 0, Joseph!
A Chance for Young M n.—ln dis
cussing the question as to who would be
disfranchised under the reconstruction
bill, Ex-Governor Brown, in his speech
on Monday evening, said :
No man under twenty seven years of
age is disfranchised; because a man
had to be twenty one years old to hold
office that required him to take the oath
to support the Constitution, and it has
now been six years since the war beguu.
The Richmond Dispatch says : “One
advantage, we thitik, which may grow
out of the disfranchisement will be the
bringing into action a number of young
tnen who have both energy and hope to
take the places of some.who have little
if any of either hope or energy. The
men we need now are men of spirit and
confidence in their ability to work out a
prosperous future for their State.”
Is it Blarney ?—The Constitution
alist of yestt rday contained a number
of unhewn flings at Ex-Gov. Brown,
of which tbe following is a sample :
Joseph, who, in violation of the Con
federate Constitution, which he swore to
support, sought to force foreigners and
aliens into tbe service of tbe “sovereign”
State of Georgia (Joe. Gov.), thereby
compelling many to flee to South Caro
lina for refuge. * * This
Joseph, speaks a piece, and advises
Charles J. Jenkins, Governor of the
State of Georgia. O, tempa/ra. O, Jo
seph.
tt'e do not remember that the Consti
tutionalist—which thus shows up the
indifference of the Governor to the Con
stitutional rights of foreigners, made
any protest against it at the time.
- We doubt if our adopted 'citizens,
whatever they may t,link of Gov Brown,
will appreciate the wit or wisdom of the
paragraph from which the above is an
extract.
Indian Affairs. —Major Wynkoop,
in charge of the upper Arkansas Agency
reports that tbe rumors of Indian out
rages in his section are totally false-
The only complaint with the Indians is
that the captured Indian children are
not returned, and the Government has
not been prompt in fnlfillitig its prom
isos, especially in annuity goods. They
also complain of the stoppage of the
supplies of amunition, promised them
in their treaty, and Maj. W. says the
small quantity allowed can do no harm,
as it would be of no service in case of
hostilities.
The Commissioner on Indian Affairs
on Friday last concluded a treaty with
the Cherokee Indians of Kansas, modi
fying the treaty of July 19, IBG6, so as
to allow the tribe 10 sell what is known
as neutral lands, comprising about eight
hundred thousand acres, to the Atlantic
and Pacific Railroad Company. This
morning a treaty was entered into with
the Shawnces of Kansas, in which pro
vision is made to remove them into the
Indian country. Treaties have now
been made with all the Kansas Indians
providing for their removal.
Revenue Receipts. The receipts
from internal revenue during the last
few days show a decided improvement.
On Saturday, they footed up $1,273,.
106.87. The receipts during the week
ending on Saturday anioutited to $4,
662,251.01. The receipts daring the
month of February amounted to $14,-
836,411.90, and the aggregate receipts
from this source since June 30, 1866,
the commencement of the present fiscal
year, are $201,175,393.30.
A Recoxstadcteb Reb.—The Talla
hassee Sentinel tells an amusing story
of a noble dog which followed the Con
federates during the war, aDd lost a leg
‘‘in the eervice j" who has now become
a great favorite with the Federal soldiers
quartered in Tallahassee, Kindness
won him Over. No degrading condi
tions, repulsive to his animal instincts
were exacted of him, and he is now a
good Union dog, “so called.” The
Sentinel thinks it is a pity that the oaths
and sacred pledge of our people have
not been met with as much considera
tion as has been extended to a three
legged dog!
OEOBQIA ITEMS.

The Millegevilie Recorder advises its
readers to desist from Cotton culture
and go to raising provisions. Sensible
advice, if our planters would only
heed it. ,
The planters of Dougherty and sur
rounding counties were to have met at
Albany yesterday to have organized an
agricultural society. A good move, and
one that should be followed iu every
direction.
Judge Fleming, presiding in the
Chatham County Superior Court, sen
tenced in Savannah, on Tuesday, two
negroes to death ; Jack Jewett and Mo
ses Bayfield, who were implicated in the
murder of Mr. Seckinger, some months
since.
A communication in the Albany Ketos
from Milford, Baker county, says: Onr
planters are busily employed preparing
their farms for planting. The freedmen
are doing well. I hear of no com
plaints against them. Our country is
very quiet.
The Columbus Sun says that several
citizens of that city went into the lumber
business at Brunswick and Pensacola,
thinking they would make fortunes ; but
the result proved that they were mis
taken in their calculations. One party
sunk nearly $25,000, and others have
probably come out largely behind
hand.
The Rome Courier gives an account
of a novel chase after a horse thief a
few miles from that city. Three men
had been arrested in Milton county, for
horse stealing. Two turned State’s
evidence, and the third—llamsay by
name—was sent to jail. The two then
started to Alabama to recover some
stock they had stolen. On their way
back, witli the stock, they met Ramsay,
who had broke jail and was on another
stolen horse. They ordered him to hall
—he fled—they fired on him seven times
and he escaped to the woods.
Insane Suggestion. —The Georgia
Citizen, in a recent article ou the agita
tors who control Congress says :
Pick off the tyrants who are destroy
ing the nation! They are outlaws, in
every sense of the word. They are
traitors to the Constitution and the Gov
ernment. Bring them to the block—
swing them as high as Human—treat
them ns political bushwhackers—guer
rillas and Ishmaelites whose hands are
against every honest principle and every
honest man. Take them out into the
woods and lose them !
Suppose you lead off iu the “losing - !
game, Doctor?
It is such foolish ranting as the above
that inflames these agitators to increased
violence towards the South, and in the
name ot the press and of out- distressed
people, we protest agaiust such absurd
and idle utterances.
The Right Spirit. —The following
resolution, which was adopted at the
meeting of citizens on Monday night,
in Atlanta, breathes a liberal spirit,
which is worthy of comineiidatiou. It
is the true policy. Men and money are
needed to develop our resources, and
we should welcome to our borders all
w.’io come to cast their lot among us :
Resolved, That we, the citizens of
Fulton county, do hereby proclaim to
our fellow citizens throughout the entire
Union, a sincere purpose on our part
to heal the wounds inflicted by the un
happy past, and we take this method of
extending to our fellow citizens of every
State a cordial and hearty invitation to
come and settle in our midst, assuring
them, in the name of everything that is
sacred, that they shall be received and
treated as friends, and as citizens of a
common country.
The Young Men’s Christian Associ
ation of New Orleans is about to be re
organized. How about the one in
Augusta? Is it dead,or only sleeping?
A Fire occurred in-LaGrnnge on the
Bth, consuming two buildinus, next to
the Sims’ House, one occupied ns a
milinefy store and Revenue office ; the
other a work shop.
A man named Jerome Cheshire was
found just out of Atlanta, on Thurs
day, in an insensible condition, having
been assaulted by a negro for the pur
pose of robbery.
Rev. J. S. Lamar. —This gentleman
was announced to deliver a lecture at
the Second Baptist Church in Atlanta,
on Thursday night, for the benefit of
the poor of that city. Subject: “Home,
Sweet Home.”
Deliberate Action. —The Athens
Watchman, in a discreet article on the
situation, urges the avoidance of pre
cipitate action, and in conclusion says :
If, after deliberation, we conclude
that we will never conseut to or be com
pelled to adopt the Constitutional
Amendment and negro suffrage at the
dictation of Congress—why, then, the
sooner we act the better. But let ue
first deliberate, and then act wisely.
The Late Storm. —The Atlanta pa
pers report two bridges near Tunnel
Hill, on the State Road, swept away by
the late storm, also the city bridge at
Chattanooga, by which five men on it
at the time came near losing their lives.
A bridge a few miles beyond Chatta
nooga (previously noted by telegraph to
this paper) and the city bridge at Knox
ville were also washed away. It is stated
that the damage to the railroad bridges
will be repaired in two or three days.
The storm appears to have been exten'
sivd, and the damage very pfeat.
—At a printer's festival lately, the
following toast was offered: “Woman
—second only to the press in the dissem
ination of news!”
Swartjr Johnson’* Vote Explained.
The fudtfen and astouading support
»iv#n by Reverdy Johnson to Sherman’s
Dili is at last explained. He discovered,
it is credibly stated, that it was tbe pur
pose of the next Congress, which is
tenfold more remorseless, violent and
praeoriptive than the present, ,to press
the passage of a wholesale confiscation
bill if the present plan for reconstruc
tion fails. He quailed before the reve
lation of tbis Moloch spirit, and the
vision of confiscation and beggary of
millions of his conutrymen extorted
from him ths reluctant support of an
infamous measure. He saw an unarmed,
noble, and defeated section powerleaa,
in the grasp, and at the mercy of an
unfeeling foe, more remorseless than
Goth, Hun, Hessian or Turk,- and he
made, as he believed, a timely sacrifice
of-opinion to save a people whom he
loved, and for whose wrongs his heart
bled.
There may be men cast in unusual
arid heroic mould, designed doubtlessly
by God to play the part of mariys, who
find in this conduct of Mr. Johnson
suffieieut ground for denunciation but
we do not. If this explanation of the
reason for Reverdy Johnson’s course is
true, we think he h is committed one of
those sins which the Recording Angel
will blot out with a tear for the weak
ness of a generous heart, when the
books of the Chancery of Heaven are
opened for the final balancing of all
earth Ij accounts.
The South has been scourged terri
bly enough for all sane men to pray
that confiscation—that last sad vial of
Apocalyptic wrath—shall not be poured
upon our heads. The world is suffi
ciently full of the tales o( the heroism
of this blighted nttd impoverished sec
tion, for ns, iu the moment of extreme
peril, to wish to protect our wives, our
children, and our desolated firesides,
from the horrors of absolute destitution.
Secure as he is in his own life and
property from the malice and greed of
the modern Goths, the menaced South
should surely listen with charity to the
excuse which the friends of Reverdy
Johnson offer for his support of the
‘Sherman Bill.” Gratefully remember
ing that able gentleman’s generous
sympathy for us during the war, and
his heroic and frequent denunciations
of the outrages on the South from his
seat iu the Senate, we regret that we
should have prematurely denounced
him to our readers for yielding to the
dictates of a heart full' oi kindness for
us. — Richmond Times.
Homestead Laws. —We are pleased
to see the general interest manifested
by the Legislatures of the Southern
States, in the enactment of liberal
Homestead Laws. The Virginia Legis
lature has had such a law under consid
eration, and both North Carolina nnd
Alabama have lately passed Homestead
acts, the former reserving 100 acres of
lands, with buildings, if in the country,
and one acre, with dwelling and out
houses, if in a city or town. The Ala
bama bill reserves $1,200 worth of real
estate, including the Homestead, and
$1 ,000 worth of personal property.
No Land for Rebels. —To the bill
amendatory of the act of June 21, 1866
for the disposal of public lands in actual
homestead settlements ia Alabama,
Mississippi, Louisiana, Arkansas, and
Florida, the House of Representatives
added an amendment excluding those
who had voluntarily given aid and com
fort to the rebellion, but not those who
had afterward enlisted in the Federal
army and been honorably discharged
therefrom.
The End of Their Rope.—A Wash
ington correspondent ot the Richmond
Dispatch says: The extremists i ave
now gone to the length of their rope;
but they aro not yet hung. They cun
go no farther, and when the States hold
their conventions under the new statute,
and elect representatives to Congress,
they are bound to admit them. They
cannot disregard their law on this point,
with its obnoxious provisions. Promi
nent men among them assert that the
people cannot be educated to stronger
grounds than they now have. So there
are evidences that the Radical race is
nearly run.
—ln chemistry, the best way to sepa
rate two bodies is to introduce a third.
The same holds true in other depart
ments. To increase the distance be
tween a pair of lovers, all that’s required
is to let little Willie walk into the back
parlor holding a lighted candle in his
band.
