GEORGIA ENTERPRISE WILLIAM L. BKkiVB. Ewto». <?OV IN GT()N.GA FRIDAY MORNING, \OV. 1!. ls<Jß A CALM REVIEW. The exciting contest of tile Presidential campaign having passed away it is now a fa vorable time for a quiet consideration of tlie condition of the country, and an enffr.rry as to the future prospects and prctViaVie destinies of our ponj.lc. There rs i»o tlener.il f’.rant lias carrk'd a majority of the*elect<>rnl votes, which •mires another four years -of jtower to the Republican party. Much a* dhe mass of the people of Georgia may regret fiivs result, it is folly to ignore the existing fact. Rather, let it be admitted, and let our calculations and arrangements for the future lcok to the pro motion of the public good to the greatest ex tent practicable under the circumstances.— What, then, is the actual extent of the Demo cratic defeat and Republican victory? Every where the leturns show large Democratic gains on tire last general elections, though in few of th*» States are the gains sufficient to turn the scale in favor of the Democracy Yet these gains are worth more than would at first appear. In all popular governments mi norities have rights and command respect in proportion to their strength. In addition to this consideration, tlie fact appears that in the past three years the Democracy have overcome d**e prejudices and fanaticism engendered hy the war to such an extent that they nearly succeeded in carrying the election in favor of constitutional government. This will be a powerful check upon the extreme measures of the fanatical party in power; for they are not all utterly void of reason, and tlie rctiec ting men among them will sec that the only hope of their retaining the popular support is found in yielding to the demands of the pro 1 * pie in till sections of the country. Those de mands with emphatic unanimity call for the restoration of that constitution and union which our fathers gave us, under which our country was prosperous, and our people were indeed free. The unbridled recklessness with which the general government Ims hecn ad ministered since the Republicans have been in power was the chief agency which inaugurated the great revolution in popular sentiment at the North and West. That policy cannot he abandoned hy that party without certain dis integration and overthrow ; its pursuit has already nearly defeated' their candidate for the Presidency, although sustained by all the prestige of a successful warrior. Here is something cheering for the people, then, which i cannot be overshadowed even by the gloomy prospect of another term of Radical mis rule. But it is by no means certain that the very success in which the Radicals are exulting will not lie their own ruin. Already etrongly wrought plots are working in opposition to each other, for the control of the party move ments. If General Grant should favor the moderate poliey indicated by some the ex tremists will read him out of the party as they did Mr. Johnson ; while his affiliation with the extreme wing of that party will drive the moderate Republican leaders to unite with the Democrats. This would render him as pow erless as Mr. Johnson lias been : and the chief evil of his administration would consist iu its utter inability to do anything, while the extravagant expenditures of the past would be continued. Indeed, it may be that this triumph of the Republican party is only the initratory step towai and that relief which must come at last in the form of utter repud’ation of the intolerable national debt, and with it the party by whose misrule it was incurred. Then, let the suffering people be patient a lit tle longer. In any event, these oppressions will lie ended with this Presidential term.— The Radical party cannot longer survive the discordant elements which wrangle in the heterogeneous masses of which it is composed. Even now their several factions are con tending over the spoils more violently than opposing parties formerly struggled for their respective policies. The coming four years will show us either a restoration of-eonstitu tional liberty under a Democratic administra tion, with general prosperity, or an established despotism without even tlie mockery of the form popular government. In either case it is best to maintain an organized opposition to the paity of destruction, until the long conflict is ended. A Hundred Years to Conte. To-day we are striving, pushing, grasping after wealth, honor, power, and pleasure.— The poor claim wealth that they may be above want: the rich seek to add to their already countless thousands. So are we— rushing for ward, reckoning not of the final result of our transitory existence. No one ever appears to think how soon he must sink into oblivion —that we are one generation of millions.— Yet such is the fact. Time and progress have through countless ages, come marching hand in hand—the one destroying, the other budd ing up. They 6eem to create little or no com motion, and the work of destruction is as easily and silently accomplished ob a child will pull to pieces a rose. Y'et such is the fact. A hundred years hence, and much that we now see aronnd us will too have passed away. It is but the repetition of life’s story; we arc born, we live, we die: and hence we will not grieve over those venerable piles, finding the couMßon level of their prototypes in nature, an ultimate death. ‘‘We all within our graves shall sleep A hundred years to come , No living soul for us will weep A hundred years to come; But other hands our land will till, And other men our streets will fill, And other biids will singes gay, As bright the aun shine as to day, A hundred years to come,’' NOTHING LOsT l’nder this heading “Brick” Pomeroy's New York Deruncrnt of the -fitti ittsf.. gives some very < i.rreet reflection* in reference to the late election. After -rating that the Democracy have failed to elect their candidates, and briefly reviewing the causes and eoiiseipiences of that failure, that vigorous paper returns to the work in the following emphatic stvle : The next fight is to be tin: er.orLES notiT— not that of leaders and committees, as this lias been. It is to be a light of principle— clear, broad, radical. Democracy takes the field now —old-fashioned Jeffersonian Democ racy— State Rights, anti bank, anti-taiiff, anti bondholding Democracy. Wt have bad enough of serving both God and the Devil. The attempt has been made to see how near wc could come to serving the* Devil of Jacobinism, and yet appear to wor ship iu the Divine Temple of Democracy. The experiment has proved a failure, and we have now only one course left, and that is, to pursue it Itoldly and earnestly—ami scorn all counsels which would turn as in any otlior direction. L'jt, then, with tj.c banner of principle and, raise it high ! Carry it to the front, and plant it at the bead of our gallant, unbroken, undis mayed legions, and there hold it fast, and firm, and high, that it may be unto us as was the “cloud hy day. and u pillar of lire by night ‘ to God's chosen people, and under its bright, inspiring emblazonry, we will march to as sured. glorious victory ! What are four years in the life of the Re public? Vliut in a struggle for liberty? They are nothing. And the misrule of these four years will make our victory tho more thorough and sweeping in the end. Then be of good cheer, white men of the South ! Your deliverance is sure ! Be of good cheer, plovvholders of the West! You shall be freed from tariffs and bonds 1 He of good cheer, sons of tail everywhere ! Your cause is not lost! Yon have friends who will stand by you, and work for your emancipation from the bondage of the money kings, while, fora little longer, you are denied the bread that you earn, and the oppression of taxation lengthens your hours of labor, and makes your comforts few and your burdens heavy ! Be of good cheer, friends of constitutional government! For the templewhich our fath ers so wisely and skillfully builded, shall be restored ! The God of our fathers has not forsaken us! Nor will the people again reject his counsels, an! follow bad men into the paths of destruction. Fear not, brother Democrats ! The future is ours ! From this hour se s in tho great popular reaction, which will know no abate ment until it shall bury 7 Jacobinism “Deeper than e’er plummet sounded.' 1 The Election ol Itutler. It is a tit thing that Buti.er should be sen from Massachusetts as its representative, and sent with the emphasis and distinction of an immense majority. He is a representative mSn of Massachusetts if not of its men, at least of its women.— When the deposed wretch ordered his soldiery in New Orleans to treat secessionist ladies ns “women of tlie town, [dying their vocation,” he sent a thrill of satisfaction through the hearts of all the prurient prudes in New England. That was their real triumph. The Southern women had scorned and flouted at their Puritan sisters. They had pur on the airs ofaristocrucy and had inflicted deep wounds upon the self love of sex. The rankling wound bred fester ing bate ; and when the brutal order was made public it was hailed with open demonstration of joy at the North. The imagination of the prurient prudes pictured their sisters brought down and trampled upon by a brutal soldiery. That was the shame, that the humiliation that their hearts had brooded over ; and the man who gave the order— a Beast in the hands of men became a hero in their minds. So the women of Massachusetts have sent their representative to Congress by 8,000 majority. There he is ! Look at him ! There they arc! Look at them ! — Albany Argus. Protest ant Sisters of Charity. —There is an institution at Dusseldorf, Prussia, estab lished by the celebrated Pastor Fridner, for the training of these deaconesses, who resem hie the Catholic ‘‘Sisters of Charity.” They wear a neat uniform, resembling the dress of Quaker ladies. They have been found especi ally useful as assistants to foreign missiona ries. In 1851 the first of these deaconesses arrived at Jerusalem, on the invitation of Bishop Gobat, and soon proved that they were invaluable assistants to the Bishop and to the physician of the English hospital at Jerusa lem. A ludicrous incident was reported to have occurred at the polls in Quincy, Mass. The Hon. Charles Francis Adams deposited a writ ten ballot. A few minutes afterwards he re turned and stated that by mistake he had put a receipt bill into the box. An examination proved the correctness of the statement. It is reported lie voted the Republican electoral and Democratic State ticket. Result of the Presidential Election. The following is the result of the election in the various States as far as heard from. Total number of electoral votes 317. For Grant. —California, 5; Connecticut, 6; Florida, 3; Illinois, 16; Indiana, 13; lowa, 8: Kansas, 3; Maine, 7; Massachusetts, 12; Michigan, 8; Minnesota, 4; Missouri, 11; Nebraska, 3; Nevada, 3; New Hampshire, 5 ; North Carolina, 9 ; Ohio, 21; Oregon, 3; Penn sylvania, 26; Rhode Island, 4; South Caroli na, 6; Tennessee, 10; Vermont, 5; West Vir ginia. 5; Wisconsin 8—204. Fou Seymour —Alabama, 8; Delaware, 3 : Georgia, 9: Kentucky, 11: Louisiana, 7: Maryland, 7 ; New Jersey, 7 ; New York. 33; —BS. Not Permitted to Vote —Mississippi, 7 ; Texas, 6, Virginia, 10—23, The Election of 186 ft, The Hartford Times, in relation to the late election, says : “The result of the election on Tuesday is the choice of Gen. Grant as Presi dent of the United Stntes for four years from, the fourth of March next. “This result was secured to the Radicals by ' the elections on the first Tuesday in Oct, her in Pennsylvania and Indiana. The struggle in those States was severe, and very closely con tested ; but by ibc use of miJliuw* of dollars in money the lladiculs barely carried ihcwi—by only about ten thousand majority in both .States, on an average poll of a Mit.i.ioN of Votes! On this slight hair hung the success of Gen. Grant. It was seem red, and that is «U—scoured by money and appliances that ought never to be us, and in the elections of a five people; corrup tion (crei oppression x*f laborers, as in the miningd-isD-tots wlrere the Radicals got 9,000 nwjwrity, wlien a fair expression of the voters, aocording to their own con fictions, would have giv< n u majoiity the other way. In the Presidential contest, tlie Democracy went to the polls a beaten party. Knowing that they had been defeated in advance, of course hundreds of thousands of their voters were desponding, and many did not even take the trouble to east a ballot. Besides this, in a most ill-advised and unwarrantable manner, the New York World advised, practically, that the party should disband during the contest within three weeks’ time of the election!- This had ns great an infliieree to depress and defeat them as the October elections—perhaps j a worse and more demoralizing influence, for there was no time t > repair tlie mischief of the ' sudden arid unexpected blow. Under these circumstances, Grant has carried States that lie could not have won under almost any otlior state of things. But Gen. Grant is chosen. What next? At tlie end of this fiscal year trie deficiency and the inetcuseof the public debt will amount to one hundred and fifty millions of dollars.— The Radicals cannot help this unless they change their policy. Their plan of governing by the army settles this. They must change to the Democratic policy of a fraternal Union, or the increase of tho debt is inevitable. What next? An increase of the taxes! and this will border every man and family in the land. \\ bat next? The world v. ill see that our debt is our master, and our national credit will suffer. We cannot go to specie payments. — We must endure the shoddy currency and all except the wealthy and untaxed must take it, depreciated and it redeemable as it is. What next? An alarm among the bond holders—a fear that their bonds will never be paid, for the increasing debt w ill endanger them all. What next? The business interests, de pressed, will lie presented with a gloomv pros pect, for the North will still be carrying the burden of supporting the South and the costly military governments to hold it in subjection; and the South will not be aiding tlie whole country wiili two hundred millions of dollars in gold annually ln-ought from Europe, the income from its staple products. Business will still suffer. What* next? The simple question will he presented to the people, of a Union as iur fathers made it—of Stair governments by the people, not liv the lwyonet-—of the Constitution against usurpation—of prosperity and a free government, against military rule and crashing burdens upon business and the people. What next? The people will answer for themselves iu the elections that come rapidly with the seasons. A Farcf.—Happening in Charlestow n on Thursday last, we had an opportunity of wit nessing a West Virginia election (?) This township or dstrict formerly polled between five and six hundred votes. The iegistra'ion bo- ks tliis year, as furnished to the supervisor, Con tained tie names of fifteen voters, all t iltl.— These were, of course, deemed loyal. The polls were opened, tlie election progressed, and at sunset eleven patriots had exercised tlie privilege of tlie ballot. Tlie Rads made n mistake, however, iu calculating on bo largo a proportion of loyalty in that district for only two of tlie eleven voted tlie Radical ticket. It was tho most farcical of nil the election farces ever enacted in (Vest Virginia—that “bastard offspring of political rape.”—H7)t- Chester Times. Destructive Power of Salt. A correspondent writes from the vicinity of Baltimore, Md.:—‘‘We have lately been enjoy ing ice cream at a dear price. A few weeks since, the contents of a bucket of melted ice and salt were carelessly thrown our, and got dammed up about a fine grapevine and some healthy hop vines; they were quickly killed, as well as a raspberry hush that was also flooded. A few days since the same mixture was ig norantly emptied into the bucket which is kept handy for chicken scraps when the menl, etc., was put in to make up their breakfast, all mixed up and giyen to tlio chickens. This error cost us fifty chickens, ranging from little b ihtails to old laying hens. In mentioning this calamity to an acquaintance, he stated that some time since a lot of salt was thrown over a field for sheep, which being discovered by the chickens of the adjoining village, they flocked to it and regaled themselves. The con sequence was a complete cleaning out of the feathery stock. Os all those attacked at our house but one recovered, though nearly a dozen fought for life from one to two days. Miss P. W. Forsyth, daughter of the pub lisher of the Liberty, Miss., Advocate, has assumed that position herself, after having been engaged for twelvo years in the typo graphical department of the paper. The paper has been published for nearly thirty-three years by her father, whose declining years and feeble health have at length unfitted him for the task. The State Lunatic Asylum buildings arc greatly crowded, and every room is full. There arc 385 inmates, 50 of whom are negroes.— Exchange, The Editoi A School Roy VT'ompnsition. A school lioy s composition oil “The Editor ran as follows’ in a school not very far from hero; 'lbe editor is one of the happiest animals iw the known world. He can go to tlie circus Afternoon -and evening, without paying a cent; also to inquests aird hangings. He has free tickets to picnics ami strawberry festivals, gets wedding cake sent to him, aird sometimes gets a licking, but not often, for be can take things back in the next issue, which he gen erallv dots. 1 never knew only one editor to get licked. His paper busted that day, and he couldn't take nothing buck. While other folks have got to go to bed early the editor can sit up late every night, and sec all that is going on. The boys think it is a big tiling to hang out till ten o'clock. When I am a man I mean to be an editor, so I can stay out nights. Then that will be bully. The editor don't have to saw wood or do any chopping, except with the scissors. Railroads get up excursions for him, knowing if they didn't he’d make them get up and git. In politics he don't care much whom he goes for if they are on his s'de. If they ain’t he goes for ’em any way. so it amounts to nearly the same thing. There is a great many peo ple trying to be editors who can’t, and some of them have been in tlie profession for years. They can't see it though. If I was asked if I had rather have an education or be a circus rider, 1 would say let me go and be an editor. — Kxr.tam ye. ftea-Sickness. If your enemy is a bad sailor, shake hands with him when you land, for you have been revenged in watching him at sea. Os all dis mal ills, the disnialcst is sea-sickness. Let a man break his leg, he will lie in bed with no desire to die. Let him lose his arm, or catch the small pox. or get bloated with the dropsy ; the desire to retain life is ever with him. lie will live while he can. But let a man he sea sick, and life grows an intolerable burden.— lie will gaze over into the depths of the blue waves with a yearning to set his stomach to rest beneath it. Can anything be more mor bid than the expression of his eye? What more suggestive of suicide than the color of his cheek? How he hates every body ! The officious steward, not unmindful of some pros pective fee, who bobs so untiringly about him with a mop and a basin, lie loudly execrates between the gulps of his ever-recurring meal, lie smells a distant cigar—there is a flavor of death in the hideous odor—ah! what w ai'd he give to be on shore again. There is something po awful in tlie going up of the vessel and something so abominable in the going down. It is a rising that seems only to carry one's i.. . ' . bead with it, leaving it wi tho air horribly {giddy and confustd. Then follows the low sinking—a movement that seems *o subver: the whole anatomy of the body—thrusting the stomach into the throat—the heart into the feet—whilst the head is left still, op in the air, dazed, yellov, emptied. How a man envies the bow legged steward, who seems incapable of being upset by the jerk of the steamer ns il lie were one of those China figures with r-mid bottom-, which you may sometimes see in the ■ tov-sliops. How cheerily he thrusts his mop about; how gaily he answers to the clinked aud distant cry of “Steward! - ’ II >v astonish ing to watch his steady progress along the heaving deck, hi- arms full of basins, and his complexion a- unpahd by llu- pioxiniity of the horrid vessels its if each cheek were an apple.
