1 UK SKXATOKSHIP.
The discussion of this subject is be- j
c very acrimonious, and we !
think unnecessarily and unwisely so. |
lion B. H. Hill seems to be the oh- j
jp C t f.>r most of the shafts hurled by j
the partisans of the press and lheii j
correspondents. XJnon this question j
,ve have taken no decided position; j
but we think the war upon Mr. Hill i
hss been not only ungracious but un-1
fair, lie lias been held to condem- j
nation for utterances attributed to j
him by irresponsible newspaper re- i
porters, and they the scribblers for I
Radical sheets. No assertions of this i
class of Bohemians would weigh one j
feather with us in our estimate of any i
man, especially of a Democrat, j
Hence the diatribes against Mr. Hill,
bused upon such authority, have ex
hibit, and more of personal bitterness
th in of any special desire to be just.
Mr. Hill denies the charges made
against him attributing any sort of
sympathy upon ids part with any
movement looking to a compromise
with Hayes and Wheeler in the
Presidential election, an explanation,
of which from him will be found in
this issue of The Exprhss.
Up to the present time we have
been silent on the senatorial question.
Mr. Norwood has been a faithful and
true member as we honestly believe
and as the records of the senate will
prove. To say that he is not efficient
and worthy to be his own successor
would be the utterance of a declara
tion that we cannot in our honesty
believe for a single moment. Hence,
we have felt no inclination to aid in
any movement for ids displacement,
.however much we could wish for the
elevation or promotion of other dis
tinguished gentlemen of the State.
Mr. Hill is one of the tin si bril
liant men in the State. lie is an old
neighbor and friend of ours, a mart
in whom we have felt more than or
dinary pride. We feel no disposition
to thwart him in his promotion, or
to say one word to his detriment.
Under these circumstances we have
been loth to make an issue between
him and Mr. Norwood. This much
we have said to Mr. Norwood him
self personally. Both are gentlemen
w - • deem for their ability and good
citizenship, and it would be hard for
us t > decide between the two when
called upon to pass upon the personal
merit and official record of the one as
senator as opposed to tiie transceud
aai ..biJity and long friendship of the
ct t. This is exactly our feeling as
regard both these gentlemen as the
two most prominent aspirants for
senatorial honors.
But Mr. Hill has been most merci
lessly assailed for utterances attrib
ute,! to him. as we have said, bv irre
sponsible Boa* mians in the interest
Oi the Radical partv and in the pay
of its organs. He is placed falsely in
the position of an apologist for any
circumstance that may place Gov.
Hayes in the Presidential chair
thi nigh fraud and at the expense of
popular liberty itself. This war
ujs m Mr. Hill is being made by the
advocates of Gov. Smith, whose rec
ord as Governor may be ever so good,
but who lias not the qualities, as we
believe, to be United States senator,
This war, we here repeat, a3 made
by the friends of Gov. Smith, is hut
the continuation of the policy adopt
ed in ihe late gubernatorial cam
paign, in Which we then expressed
the belief there was an alliance that
was to control the gubernatorial
nomination and the election of
United States senator. This war, as
it is waged against Mr. Hill by the
parties conducting it, is but additional
evidence to our mind of the existence
of the Smith-Colquitt alliance that
we believed was formed by the
friends of these gentlemen List sum
mer. To that alliance, if it does ex
ist, we are unalterably opposed, and
would support any respectable man
to defeat it lor the reason tHat we
are opposed to all rings and combi
nations organized for such purposes.
So much for this feature of the sena
torial question.
We think the race wili be between
Norwood and Ililj. We believe.the
masses desire one or the other. As
we have said, it would be hard to
decide between the two under all the
necessities of Southern representation
in Congress. Mr. Norwood is ac
knowledged to be a shining light in
the senate, and Mr. HiP another in
the house.* The further question,
therefore, arises in the mind of the I
patriot who loves his State and Conn- i
try, why not let these two shining
igots continue to shine on for the
Present in their respective spheres as j
! 'ey urc* ut present placed. This!
v, ulu be the great question that '
would arrest our consideration were !
we a member of the approaching leg- j
i-inture when called upon to decide '
as for whom we should vote. This !
much we nave to say as to the race j
being between Norwood and Hill.
It is useless to say that Gov. Smith
is without strength, not so much
among the people as Norwood and
Hill, but with the politicians, office
seekers and office-holders. Thai
there is a large majority of this Id-(
ti notice for Smith we have not the |
slightest doubt. The same leaders, i
as a general thing, who controlled j
the lute gubernatorial campaign are |
now in the interest of Smith. They j
have been combined for certain pur- j
poses, and having Effected a part they |
will work most obstinately and per-!,
sistetdly tt> the \Wfble j
programme of alliance we yet j
believe to have been formed in cer- I
tain interests. Their success will de- j
l>end upon whether organization is 1
or is not sufficiently represented in
the members of the new legislature.
No elforts were spared, as we be
lieve, to extend that organization of
alliance throughout tiie State in the
election of members to the legiala
ture.
We have thus given a ‘‘running ae- j
count” of our ideas of the senatorial i
situation. If we are wrong in any j
of our suspicions none will be more >
rejoiced to acknowledge it; but we ;
feel certain we have given a pretty j
fair horoscope of that situation as it |
now v. xists.
THE NEW YEAR.
In entering the duties of the new j
year and in presenting the firs: num- !
her of the eighteenth volumeof The j
Express, we take the occasion to j
| wivli our patrons a more prosperous j
1 year than the past, which has been
| marked by a stringency in monetary
jaffiairsand a greater depression of
j all material prosperity than was ;
ever known in a year of peace. Our
j industries have been paralyzed and
I labor lias been without its reward
j Thousands of mechanics and other
laborers have found it difficult to
j keep gaunt starvation from their
i doors, and have suffered, in many
| instances, for the commonest neces
sities of life. But the money lords
have rolled in luxury, driving
through the streets of our large cities
in magnificent chariots. These diff
erences in the comparative condition
of all classes have been brought about
by a financial administration of the
Federal government that has
made the rich richer and the poor
poorer.
But the .experience of the past
three years has impressed upon our
more thoughtful people of all classes
lessons of economy which will, in the
end, ultimate in more general pros
perity upon the return of better times.
These evidences are exhibited to a
very considerable extent upon the
part of our farmers. They are be
giuingto realize the importance of a
diversity of production, and are less
exclusive in the production of cotton,
which has keen the bane ot Southern
prosperity. To live at home is the
philosophers stone of the farmer.
Bread and meat stuffs produced at
home on a well-regulated farm is
a great deal cheaper in the end than
these are at the cheapest rates when
purchased abroad. We are glad
therefore, to be able to State that
this class of our people, whose success
is the basis of all prosperity, are in
a better condition to go forward this
year in their agricultural operation
than for years past. As they succeed
| so must all other industries revive
and all business improve,
**ln the beginning of the new year
The Express is pledged to aid to
the extent of its capacity in the de
velopment of the material progress
of our people. To effect the greatest
good we hope to have their co opera
| lion • and we trust we shall have the
aid of our citizens of ail classes in the
discussion of all questions connected
with the growth and development
of our wealth.
To one and all we wish a happy
and prosperous new year, and at its
close all may have cause for rejoicing
in the results of honest labor and
economical management of their
j. affairs.
“PATENT OUTSIDE” N EWSPAFEKS.
The Athens Watchman of this week
contains a most sensible and timely
article upon this subject. It sets out
| by telling how these spurious jour
nals are half printed at Chicago,
j Nashville and other places and are
j palmed off as legitimate newspapers
| upon communities all over the coun
-1 try. The Watchman explains how
the putative editor has no more con
trol over half his paper than we do
over the Londou Times. “B it,” says
the Watchman, “what of all this?
Have not publishers, the right to
huy-ready made newspapers, if they
see fit ? Most indubitably they have
If they can prevail on the reading
public to take them. But county
officers have not gofthe Aght to ad
vertise in them.'' 1
“Papers with ‘patentoutsides’ have been de
clared by the counts, both of iicw Jersey and
Pennsylvania, to be not proper mediums for
the publication of legal advertisements, inas
much as thev are not printed m the county
in which the interest affected I* such adver
tising exists.”
The courts of Georgia, adds the
Watchman, will no doubt hold the
same doctrine, whenever a case is
brought before them. The law will
never become a party to a fraud.
The effect of the “patent outside”
system is to plant these so-called
papers w here there is no demand for
! papers, and thus, to some extent,
cripple legitimate journalism. The
Watchman pertinently remarks that
these “patent outsides” are springing
up every where, ad taking from the
legitimate press of thecountry, which
is identified with the people in inter
est, the patronage which
rightfully belongs to it and
transferring the money wrung from
the estates of widows and orphans ]
and the property of unfortunate !
debtors to the pockets of-their ene.
mies residing in Chicago or Cincin-|
j natti. This is no small matter, and it
is high time that the Legislature and ,
I our courts should put a quietus upon
1 it.
Speaking for The Express we;
have to add further that we have no !
I personal feelings towards those gen- I
i tlemen of the press who issue the !
I “patent outsides,” We only regret *
that such papers, printed away from 1
home, should be used to the detri- \
ment of legitimate journalism and !
Southern enterprise. We believe
the courts of New Jersey have made
a wise and honest decision upon this
point, and trust that our Legislature
and our courts will take such steps!
as will encourage a higher and nobler !
standard of journa ism in our State,!
by recognizing no paper as a proper
medium for legal adv< rtising except
those printed wholLy where publish
ed and issued.
THE LEGISLATURE.
The General Assembly of Georgia
will eonvvne next Wednesday. The
Presidential excitement has so ab
sorbed the popular rrind that the
Legislature has elicited but little at
tention, and we should not be surpris- j
ed if some of the inetnliers do not
forget the day of meeting though the
per diem is seven dollars.
Oneof the first things the legislature
should do after organization is a de- J
claration of the views and feelings of
the people of the State in regard to
the Presidential election. In such a
declaration, we should like # to see a
firm adhesion to the inajguaatinn of
Tilden if he has been elected. What
ever is right should prevail though
the heavens fall.
The question of a constitutional j
convention should he early disposed j
of. As'long as that is an open ques- i
tion, the people will be*restive under |
the operation of the bastard consti !
tution under which they live. It is
not a production of the people, but
was forced upon them at the poir.t
of the bayonet at the bidding of
carpet-baggers and scalawags organ
ized for plunder. Until it is substi
tuted by anew constitution from
the people they will never be content.
It is worth the expense of a conven
tion to the prosperity of the people
i that anew constitution should be
framed.
'There is but little doubt but what
It. E. Lester will be made president
of the Senate, and A. O. Bacon speak
er of the house. Two hotter selections
could not be mode, and we trust they
will meet with little or no opposi
tion.
It is to be hoped the legislature
will confine its deliberations to meas
ures of importance to the State, and
ignore class and petty local legisla
tion as far a3 possible.
FROM MRS. DR. FELTON,
We have received a private note
from Mrs. Felton from which we
take the libertv of making the fol
lowing extracts, for which she will
pardon us:
Christmas dull, business depressed,
people apprehensive. Georgia mem
bers all well—only one, Mr. Candler
absent. The pressure is so irreat,
that every man is alive to tiie neces
sity of the situation, and anxious to
do his best for the South and her
interest.
Five hundred employees dismissed
last Saturday from the Treasury.
We hear of much distress in the city.
May God Ideas and protect our coun
try, and guide us safely through the
impending crisis just ahead of us.
All patriots should lay aside person
al and partizan prejudice and by
prudent counsel and discretion, as
sist in restoring confidence to this
anxious, imperilled country. Every
body decides the present, the uiu
mentus era of this Republic.
NOT DR. FELTON.
The following slip has been sent to
us for correction :
The CAktersville Express prints an ex
tract from a letter from a Georgia Congress
man—probably Felton—who is now In Wash
sngtou :
“My own judgment is that Hayes will be
declared elected and inaugurated as President.
* * Democrats here generally talk coura
geously—still the Republicans are determined
—and are equal to the necessities ; and will,
at the risk of war, retain the Government.
* * Southern men seem less inclined to re
i sort f o extreme measures than Northern men.
* * it is sometimes suggested that there are
a few Republicans, like Conkliug, who will
refuse to declare by the voice of the Senate
the election of 11 aye*, and with I lie House will
ueite in the effort to have the three counted its
States thrown out or inquired into. Should
there be such Republicans, it is possible that
Mr. Tilden may be President.”
It is due to truth and justice to Dr.
Felton to state that he did not write
the letter from which the foregoing
extracts were made. Dr. Felton, we
believe, has expressed the belief all
along that Tilden will be inaugurated
peacefully on the sth of March.
Hon. A. H. Stephens thinks that
the action of the Supremo court will
throw out the electoiai vote of
Florida. He construes the decision
to mean that no legal college met in
that State on the day appointed
! byJJar,w r , and hence no electoral vote
was legally cast. He doe- not think
tba*} Congress can now count the
vote of e ther the Tilden or Hayes
electors, or order anew election.
M. Eugene Thorton, distinguished
for having eaten thirty quails in the
same number of days, thereby
making a good start in life, is in the
Gate City visiting his friends. He is
at present residing in Washington
city where there is some doubt as to
whether lie is a French count or an
American gentleman. The discus
sion of the subject forms the chief
| topic of conversation in diplomatic
circles.
Col. E. P. Speer, of the Griffin
News, seems to be looming up as the
| most prominent aspirant'for clerk of i
| the house in lower Georgia. It is !
; sufficient to say that the Colonel is a j
very popular young man, and will do j
his duty well. We congratulate him !
upon his onward and upward ten-!
dtney toward the pinnacle of fame, j
> #—
I We regret to learn of the death of
Dr. H. L. W. Craig, of Atlanta, on
Wednesday morning. He was as
amiable gentleman, and a man of
| fine mind. He wa- one of the tbund
j ers of the Atlanta Herald and has
i been connected with the press ever
| since until ill health forced him to
| relinquish business. Peace to his
! ashes.
tM(
Mr. Berend, of Macon, lost his i
i wife about two months ago, married
Tuesday was a week ago and tried
I to kill himself last Saturday with bis
I little pistol. Mr. Berend is a very
j rapid man. He has experienced
! more important events in two
| months than most men do in a life !
! lime.

feels himself under many grateful obligation*
to numerous friends for the aid they hay*
