HOW TO MEET THE CITII.
KIOIITM BILE.
The Augusta Chronicle of Tuesday hat
a rery sensiblonr.d well considered arti
cle in reference to the conduct of the
white people of the South in the event of
the passage of the Civil Rights bill. We
entirely concur in the recommendations of
our Augusta cotemporary as to the oourse
of the Southern people. But we cannot
share its confidence in the practical nul
lity of the sot. It is of the opinion that
tho Federal District Courts could not an-
force it beoaiue of its generality, and
that the United Slates Supreme Court
would declare it unconstitutional on ap
peal. We have heretofore indulged pre
cisely the same hopes iu reference to the
Reconstruction and Eaforcement acts;
but the Government has always found
ready District aud Circnit Judges to exe
cute those laws in all their rigor and with
a severity unparalleled in modem crimi
nal judicature; and the Supreme Court
Tea letter 0 will hold ite own iu Ihe I though long since appealed to, has never
next senate, Christianoy and Cameron | y^t pronounced a deoisioa relieving the
Uking the place of Chandler and Carpoa-
ter .—Unit. American.
The hope of the country is that the
similarity will and with the initials of
their surnames.
Au. the Democratic Representatives of
Georgia were in their seats and voted
against the Civil Rights bill, and Mr.
Sloan.(ltep.) voted with them. Whitoley
clone of the Georgia delegation voted for
it. * Freemen did not vote.
The Waco (Texas) Examiner aaya : “A
gentleman from Georgia pissed through
the city yesterday, on bis way to Brown
couuty,commissioned to purchase twenty-
five thousand sores of laud, for actual
aattlers, who wdl arrive sometime during
the spring or early uuwmer."
Thu Earl of Yarborough, whoaa death
was reported by telegraph a day or two
ago, was the same British nobleman who
mysteriously disappeared lust year, and
who was afterwards found ou some island
to which he bad been secretly conveyed
by his friends. His eccentricities were
caused by intemperance.
A tbaim on tbe lows Central Railroad
stuck fsst in a snow-dtift about seventy
miles west of Iiubuque ou Wednesday of
last week, aud (ha thirty pa-meugerH on
board tbe train were all night without
food or fuel. Thursday morning a relief
train was sent to their assistance. Terri
ble snow sturms Lave prevailed in that
section for three days, the thermometer
ranging from twenty-one to twonty-six
degress below zero.
John Yodso Bbowm appears to bo tho
horo of the day, notwithstanding the
llonse's partisan vote of oousuro. Nearly
evory one acknowledges that his remarks
about Butlor wore well doserved, though
violstive of tho proprieties of debate and
the rulea of the House. It is stated that
Mr. Brown daily receives numbers of
letters from various purls of the country
congratulating uud thanking him, Bnd
that many of them come from Massa-
obusetts.
Thr. Dshlonega Signal says . Wo learn
from an exchange that some Federal of
ficers went into Rabun oounty some days
since, and arrested thirty citizens who
were oharged with illicit distilling, and
carried them to Ailiulato be tried,
few nights afterward Wm. Hunter end
Wui. Smith, who are charged with giving
information against tho persous, were
taken out aud shot to death by parties un
known.
Tnn Washington reporter of the Bslti
more American (Republican) telegraphed
on Sunday : “ I he prospects of the Civ
il Rights bill as passed by the House are
very doubtful. Conversation with Re.
publiosn Senators develops tbe fset that
the House bill is not sufilaiently (borough
goiug to be satisfactory, and that it will
not be aooepted by the Senate. An effort
will be made to get a stronger bill through
by means of a conference committee, but
so large a proportion of the Republiosns
in the House are so opposed to any radi
os! measure, that it is doubtful whether
the House will accept any bill but the one
passed. When the great accumulation of
business aud the short remaining time of
the session are considered, it is evident
that if the flood-gates of talk are opened
on this matter again, it may provent tbe
passage of soy bill ou the subject.”
Tub Montgomery papers pnsuounco the
Msrdi Gras carnival in their city, on Tues
day, agrand success. The whole population
seemed to hsvo turned out to enjoy tbe
occasion, and large delegations from near
ly all tho towns and villages of middle
Alabama wero in attondanco. The com
ical port of the programme wa* amusing
ly grotesque aud was well relished. The
parade was a very fine one. The streets
were thronged, and oveiy place of ob
servation was occupied. Emblems, im
plements of trade or business and mottoes
abounded. All the trades aud business
bourns seemed to be appropriately repre
sented. Indeed business was conspicu
ously bieuded with hilarity ; the oppor
tunity for advertising was well improved.
Bo was tbe chance to make a hit or two at
Bheridan, whose operations prevented the
celebration of Msrdi Grss at New Orleans
this year. Tho carnival at night was
very brillisut and beautiful, aud the
masked ball was elegantly conducted un
der th« mauugeuieut of Geo. F. McDenald.
ALABAMA LEUIHLATUHE.
Tuesday, UtA.—Tho Senate was not in
session.
The House had a short session, which
was exclusively occupied by a wraugle as
to the right of tho miuority of the Com
mittee ou districting tho State to make a
report upon the bill from the Senate lay
ing off the State into eight Congressional
Districts. The House, by a vote of 86
to 46, refused to allow tbe minority report
to be then made, and Ihe bill was then
ordered to a second reading to-morrow.
The cost of the Beecher trial is rough

people from aoy of the eevero penalties
imposed. We may sccspt it as certain
that Gen. Grant will find instruments for
the execution of the law, and that the
Supreme Court, if it can do nothing
more, will delay a deoiaion on its nnoon
atitutiuuality until an entire change of
tbo political machinery of the Govern-
meut shall enable it to prouuuce a judg
ment of uuconslitutiouality without era
barrassraent.*
Neither arc wo ns sanguine ss tbe
Chronicle in .In belief that the next Con
gresn will repeal the law. Even if, as it
suggests, tbe Beuute will next winter be
so closely divided as to enable the Demo-
ornts and moderate Republicans to carry
through a repealing bill, the Presideut
would not aigu it, and it oould not be
passed by a two-thirds majority over his
veto. The object of the bill is to pro-
duoe just auoh a state of things at the
South as he desires to aid his own aspira
tions, and ho will “fight it ont on that
line" until he is defeated or triumphs
agkiu in 1876.
With this dissent from some of our Au
gusta cotemporary's views as to the work
ing and duration of tbe law, we heartily
second tho advice which it gives to the
Houtberu people, as follows :
The object of the promoters of the Civil
Rights bill is, of course, to goad the
Bouthern people to resist the Federal
officials charged with its enforcement.
This is so dually their object, and only
object, that it wonld bo trifling to argue
the proposition. No honest radical would
deny it; no intelligent negro would doubt
No good for any class ia intended, but
much evil to tho Boutheru white people
is devoutuly hoped. The motives for this
purpose are different with the different
aetors. With some it ia blind hatred for
tbo Bouthern people. The same spirit
that would have confiscated the savings
from the wreok would now insult and de
grade. Others of tbe actors, the highsr
order of devils, the Lucifers aud the Mul-
cihers, are moved by a deeper polioy, and
would stir strife to retain power. The
fortunes of tho extreme Radios! party are
desperate. It cannot thrive in the atmea
phere of peace and fraternity. Itsuutr!
meat is strife. It cries out to tha bouth,
“Rebel, or I perish.” Whatever the mo
tive, the end desired is resistance. And
this U that we must not furnish. To
their attacks we must oppose s steady
front of sublimo patience. Insult, we
must resist with forbearance; the attempt
to degrade us, with silent oonterapt. The
people who vanquished great odds on the
battle field showod themselves in tbe
asms struggle endowed with God-like pa
tience, and are now called upon to
achieve in the tuling of their spirits
greater triumphs than the taking
of cities. Let these high lesolvea be
made: Non-resistance, except in tbe
Courts and at the ballot-box. No triumph
to our enomios by dniug wbat. they most
desire us to do. N« mortification for
ourselves by falling into the trap they
have set for us. * * * “Let us,”
then, by all that is patriotic and wise and
heroic, “iiuve peace." If any one of our
citizens suffers prosecution or suit, let
him make his legal defenses only; and let
all his fellow-citizens regard it as their
oause and give him legal aid and com
fort, pioviding bail, furnishing counsel,
aud, if need be, supporting bis family for
tho time of his martyrdom. Few and evil
will ho the days of this iniquity; it can
not live long. But whilo if does drag out
its disgraceful existence, let us prossrve
the peace by every device. If need be,
“iuus" unu become private boarding
bouses. 1’eople who travel on business
oau submit to an evil believed to be tem
porary, and thoso who would travel for
pleasure can stay at homo and be better
aud richer for <1. Ami as for the thea
tres—this fea.ure of tbe set effects only
our few towns and cities, and it ia quite
oouceivahle that a people can live and be
virtuous aud happy, evou iu a land where
the theatres are closed.
There is ill this thing uo power for evil
which we may not disarm. We oan re
joice the heartu of our enemies by resist
ance, or wo can foil thorn by patient for
bearance. Wo caa write ourselves down
foo'u by walkiug into the trap set for us,
or we can show ourselves wise, as we
have iu the past proven ourselves brave,
by avoiding tho mare. We can by rash
ness once sgnin unite the now dissolving
ranks of our assailants, or we can make
this, as it is the meuuest, also the last, of
their assaults upon us.
Keep cool, he vise, eb taiiest.
WHY THE BELAYt
The delay of Gen. Grant in sending to
Congress his recommendation in refer
ence to Arkanmn, moat be significant of
a purpose to have his own way in dealing
with that State. Tbe session of Congress
can now last only thrae weeks longer, and
it will be found next to Impossible to
pnsh through the two Howes any legisla
tion on the subject obstructive of bis de
clared purpose. Having a majority of
two-thirds in both branches, the Radicals
can force through any party measures
agreed upon in oanons. Bat they will
not agree in canons upon any policy to
wards Arkansas differing from the Presi
dent’s, nor is there any probability that
even a majority of the party will oppose
hioi in this matter.
Why did not the President make this
reoommendstion in regard to Arkansas
when Congress first met? None of tbe
sots of which he complains have been
commuted sinoe that time. On the con
trary, the only new development affeoting
Arkansas politics is the investigation and
report of the Congressional Committee.
That report was direotly opposed to the
views and purpose of tbo President, and
he sent in hia message the day after the
report was made. Every consideration of
the subject shows that he is fully aware
that Congress can hardly take Ihe action
which he invites it io take, sad that tye is
resolved, in the event of its almost inevi
table non-action, to carrr out despotio-
ally and relentlessly the arbitraty pro
gramme which bis massage suggests, and
of whioh his dealing with Louisiana has
already given tho country pretty acourate
information.
HR. «.
HOWARD AMD UOV
SMITH.
tin Monday Gov. Smith sent a com
munication to the Legislature in reference
to a claim against the State made by Mr.
G. B Howard, formerly of this city. We
epitomize from this communication the
main points in the oastt. At the letting
of tbe contraot for distributing tba Laws
and Journals, in tbe spring of 1873, Mr.
Tboa. H. Cuyler was the lowest, and Mr.
Howard tha next lowest bidder. Mr.
Howard's bid was $1,460, Mr. Cuyler'i
$1,400. The oontraoPwn. awarded to Mr.
Cuyler, but the bond tendered by him
was found to be defective. Mr. Howard
then olaimed that the contract ought to
be swarded to him ns the next highest
bidder. He insisted that Mr. Cuyler was
“s man of straw," and that a brother of
the Librarian was only using Cnyler's
name to defraud Howard ont of the con
tract. The Governor appointed a day for
tba hearing of this charge, bnt Cuyler
could not attend on account of sickness,
and ss time was pressing, it was determ
ined to let tbe contraot again. Mr. How
ard put in a bid at the second letting,
and obtained the contraot at $800. But
be oontends tbat tbe contract ought to
havo been given either to Cuyler or him
self under the first bidding, and olaiins
the difference between $800 and $1,460.
Tbe Governor says that the Legislature at
its last session appropriated $800 to Mr.
Howard for extra compensation; but he
slates, by way of questioning his right to
this ext'S pay, that the distribution of
the Laws and Journals of the last session
of the Legislature was made direotly from
tbe Library at a coat of only $346 16.

It ia uudoobtely tbe porpone of the Re-
publieens in the Donate to pros* the Civil
Rights bill at en early day, and there does
not seem to be mu h reason to doubt that
the House bill will be in snbetenoe agreed
upon. The Democratic Senators will op
pose the measore vigoroasly, bnt will not
endeavor to stave off a vote by
protrsoting t ha debate. Borne of tbo North
ern Republicans who voted for the House
bill deelsre that they did so marely-aa a
party uisasaro, and that they do not osre
for the bill. They look with contempt on
the failure of tbe Tennessee and other
Southern Republicans to sustain ths meas
ure.

“Make three million hales of cotton,

Mr. Alonzo Spain, a native of Pike
oounty, went to California some twenty-
eight ago, and is now on his first visit

He gives us some intresting accounts
of tho oountry. Not far from where he
lives tbe snow is now from fifteeu to
twenty feet deep, but at bis borne it sel
dora gets over four feet deep. He likes
the country out there very well, and it
oertsinly seems to agree with him, for he
looks hale and hearty, although between
fifty and sixty years of age. He says
morals out there are about ss good us
here. He pays laborers on his claim six
dollars per day duriug the mining soft-
son, which, however is a short one for
wash mining, The quartz mills ruu all
tho time, and pay laborers seventy dob
lara per month aud board. Idaho City

The valleys and river bottoms are good

That this tremendous physical training
