Some intelligent people, who do not

DEATH OF COL. B. B. DcCUFFEX&lED.
We are grieved to announce the death
of this most excellent and respected citi
zen, which occurred in this city on the 23d
inst., after a prolonged and lingering af
fliction. He was about 43 years of age,
born and raised in Columbus, Ga., and
took up his residence here about 17 years
ago, as a Secretary of the Executive De
partment uuder Gov. H. V. Johnson,—
Since that time he has lived in our midst,
and has been actively identified with our
city and county interest. He was essen
tially a conscientious, orderly, charitable
and urbane gentleman, and moved on the
even tenor of his way, just as such com
bination of traits would indicate. As a
friend, he was warm and uuselfish ; in
bis domestic relations affectionate aud du
tiful. As an evidence of bis strong hold
on the confidence of those in authority, he
has been placed in various stations of offi-
cail responsibility, runuing throughout the
whole career of his citizenship iu this
county. Besides being a Secretary under
two Governors, he has served two terms
as Mayor ; was a delegate to the Consti
tutional Convention of 1865, and at the
time of his death was a trustee of the
State Lunatic Asylum, aud Clerk of the
Supreme Court. In all his public and
private relations, he gave evidence of euK
tivated mind, refined sentiment, strict ins
tegrity and unobtrusive habits. He was
buried with the rites af Masonry, and fol
lowed to his last resting place by a eon
course of admiring and sympathizing
frieuds. Whilst we cherish his memory,
let us emulate his virtues.
OUlt GERMAN CITIZENS.
In the Savannah Republican of the 9ih
inst., we notice that a correspondent of
German acclimation, has vented his na
tional feelings in a chatechetical style to-
wards the editor of that Journal, snd
claims to he informed why the South is 60
partial to Frenchmen and so little dispos
ed, in fact, so positively averse to accord
ing to Germans the tneed of their good
deeds !
We are not personally or direetly nam
ed by the Republicans correspondent, but
we are striving to conduct, usefully and
truthfully, a weekly paper ; we are proud
that we belong to tha South as natives
like our fathers and forefathers were, who
“fought aud spilt” their blood not only for
the Soatli hut for all the Colonies, and
their legitimate offspring—the once in
dependent aud sovereign States now
! composing this so-called, Union—we may
presume therefore, that we are impli
cated and will be pardoned for offering
• few remarks not with any intention
to wind the editor of the Republican—
for he is full able and willing to take
care of himself—but simply to dis
abuse, it possible, his correspondents mind
upon the Southern temper entertained for
or against his Germeii brethren
As for ourselves we took occasion when
the war, new ntihappily ei'stiug latyeeh
to espouse the cause of their own blood
We did not forget, nor did we ignore the
fact, that Barons DeKalb aud Stnhen and
other Germans came like gallant knights
to succor the weak and oppressed in our
Revolutionary war ; but, it is equally
true, and was of far greater consequence
in the results they produced, that there
likewise came from France distinguished
volunteers, among them the illustrious
LaFayette—besides an army and navy.as
her national offering in behalf of the colo
nies ! Still more, France was the bold
aud efficient ally through whose friendly
exertions Spain also joined the alliance
against the common enemy. We also re
member that Holland favored the colonies
to the extent of disrupting her ancient re
lations with Englaud, aud they too, thro’
the influence of France—but, we have no
recollection of Germany, as a nation, be
ing “guilty” of the smallest active or se
cret demonstration in the interest of the
eolonies; on the contrary, and right here
we ask that a pin will be stuck—we have

which a more intimate acquaintance, and
the ties of common iuterest, will establish
firmer, better aud more lasting relations.
But under no phase of the question shall
we ever find it in our hearts, to blame any
German for espousing the old country in
the strife she is now involved.
Thi War in Europs.
This shameful butchery still continues,
with additional ^complications daily pre
senting themselves, that strongly indicate
a general collisou of arms by all the ns-
tions of Europe, without any immediate
solution of what already exists between
Prussia and France. France, it is believ
ed, is doomed to a wretched fall ; ruined,
she already is. for an indefinite period ;
and her conquerors, altbo flushed witL

calls a glorious prestige, can by no means
be considered unbanned ! Iu the same
ratio that they have made thei: greatness
will they magnify their future troubles.—

gold ! These Hessians were from Germa

never was before such a monstrous
act of oppresion as this tax. The pur
pose of this lax bill is to raise $500,000
over and above the ordinary revenue
ol the State, which sum will go into

Dear Sir—We are ir. receipt this
meming of \i.ur favor #f the 7th inst.,
handed us by your son.
The signature to the coupons was en
graved on the stone with the entire bond,
and has new been obliterated from th*
same, in accordance with your request.
Your letter of 15 ultimo was duly
received, but a* the order from Gover
nor Bullock, to execute the bonds, come
from him, we deemed it light to sub
mit the matter to his knowledge, that
we might understand if it was proper
to furnish tha desired information —
As we had no intercourse with you in
relation to the order, we thought we
should receive authority from the par
ty who had giver, it to us before going
into any details. We presume by the
papers, that a cintroversy has grown
out of the transaction, and a* we are
in no way parties to it, we wish to
avoid any interference. We think you
will appreciate our position and ac
quiesce in the propriety of the ceurse
we have pursued. We are simply
“stationers” who feel desirous to re
ceive erdert in our line of business,
and execute them to the beat of our
ability, and in thi* view we Would ie*-
pectfully solicit from you any favors

“What’s the use” doing anything

General Lee's Kindness and Liberlity.
—Biographers and new* obituary wri
tei* have united in ascribing to Gen.
Hubert Lee the best qualities ot heart
and mind. Cincinnati paper relates
the following anecdote, which does him
honor : One day last Autumn the
writer saw Gen. Lee standing in his
gate talking pleasantly to an humbly
clad man, who seemed very much
pleased at the cordial courtesy of the
great chieftain, and turned off, evident-1
ly delighted, as we came up. After j
exchanging salutations the General
said pointing to the retreating form.—
That is one of our old soldiers, who is
in necessitous circumstances. I look
it for granted that it was a veteran
Confederate, when the noble hearted
chieftaiu quietly added. ‘He fought
on the other side, but we must not
think of that.’ I aftewrads ascertain
ed—not from General Lee, lor he nev
er alluded to his charities—that he
had not only spoken kindly to this ‘old
soldier’who had fought on the other
side,’but had sent him on his way re
joicing iu a liberal contribiion to his
necessities.

T HE EXPECTORANT is composed erdn-
sively of Herbal and Mucilaginous product.,
which
Fermcats the rery Substance of th Longs,
causing them to throw of the acrid matter which
collects in the Bronchial Tubes, and at the ssn
time forms a soothing coating, relieving the ir,.-
tation which produces the cough.
The object to be obtained is to cleanse the organ
of all impurities; to nourish and strengthen
when it has become impaired and enfeebled by dis
ease ; to renew and invigorate the eircula'ion nf
the blood, and strengthen the nervous organiza
tion. The EXPECTORANT does this to an as
tonishing degree. It is active but mild aud con
genial, imparting functional energy and natnn.
strength. It affords Oxygen to vitalize the blood
and Nitrogen to assimilate the matter—
It equalizes the “nervous inHurnee.’
producing quiet and composure.
TO CONSUMPTIVES
It is invaluable, as it immediately relieves the di:-
ficult breathing and harrassing cough which at
tends tha disease.
FOR ASTHMA
It is a specific—one dose often relieving the dis.
tressing choking, and producing calm and pleas
ant reposa.
FOB CROUP
No mother should be without a bottle of the El j
PECTORANT ia the house. We have nmner-1
ous certificates of its having relieved, slw i't r. I
stantly.the little sufferer.when death appeared
most inevitable.
MOTHERS BE ADVISED!
Keep It *n Hand!
This dread disease requires prompt action: *
soon as the hoarse, hollow cough is heard, app-I 3
the remedy, and it is easily subdued ;
i BUT DELAY IS DANUEUoIS! j
tW The properties of the EXPECTORANT j
are demulcent, nutritive, balsamic, soothingj
healing. It braces the nervous system and piv j
duces pleasant and refreshing sleep.
