As the time approaches the day
of gpccit reaurnption, m provided for
in the act of January, 187 ft, the finan
cial grip tightens its death grasp
upon the material interest* of the
whole country. All industrial ener
gy is becoming more and more par
alyzed, and the toiling masses becom
ing poorer and poorer, ami moneyed
aristocracy richer and richer. More
than sixty millions of circulating
medium having been 'rapidly with,
drawn from tho trade ami commerce
of the country is well calcnlated to
create financial revulsion aud the
depression of all intlußlrinl energy.
When it is rt mem be rod that tho re

much in a little over two years and

says : “Whatever may hay* been

Things will happen oven iu metro

this passage at arms iu its issue of the
Btli inst.: “As will be seen Ly refer
ence to tho card of J. L. Wluter A
Cos., in another column, it vill be
seen that they have resumed busi
ness.”
IloV It. It. HILL.
Many of the personal and political
friends of Mr* Hill regret hii>ositton
ion the financial question. They feel
I that he is not in accent with tiie pop
ular sentiment of Ufa constituency,
Mid that his position is on? in the
interests of the great money power
of the country—not corruptly so, but
mUtakeuiy so. We think Mr. Hid
blunders and that ho will live to see
it, sud wheu be doc* > it, none will
acknowledge the errer more readilj;
but not* is the time for him to avoid
what we bvlisvti ami what many of
the beet men believe to be one of
the greatest errors ef his life. But Mr.
Ilill acts for himself independent of
the views or opinions of others and
carte as little for censure as any man.
The money power at the north is
howling tor resumption and against
remonetizing silver. It is ominous
to the welfare of the masses when
sucli a power is united In a common
purpose in opposition to any meas
ure of vital imnortauce. It is some
time** more powerful than the people
and mi>?4it overthrow liberty iteeif
should tho occasion arise aud it own
interacts demanded It. The mon
eyed aristocracy have aecurod their
wealth tt tho expense of tho sweat
and labor of the toiling masses, and
they are dotvrminM to throttle ail
legislation intended to auieliorato
the condition of the people and fix a
just equilibrium hefcveon labor and
capital.
As Bonntor from Georgia, it is a
matter of regret that Mr. Hill is not
in accord with tile people on tho
financial measure* now pending Ike
fore Cougre-i*. Nina-tenths of the
people of this State are against re
sumption nnd are in favor of re
monetizotion of iilver. Tho dc
pr<*M*d condition of all branches of
tmdo toid industry demand some
sort of reform in the fltrswicial policy
of the government, and as the circu
lating medium ef the country is
being so radidly and precipitately
contracted, crippling every species of
1 islnees, the people feel that relief
must come or ruin and desolation
will follew the consummation of the
resumption act.
We believe Mr. Ilill to lie sincere
in tho position lie has taken. We
know that nothing wo could any
would ehange ids views. But aa one
of the people of tho Stato he repre
sents in the Sedate, we regret that ho
is not in accord with his constituency.
If Mr. Hill’s wisdom should be veri
fied In the event resumption docs
take placa, we shafi have to admit
that his Judgment is tar aunerior to
that of the masses, and that tho
mousy power of tho country m
unoro patriotic tliau many can now
give it credit far,
BULLOCK’S ACQUITTAL.
Jast a* we expected and predicted
months ago, Rufus B. Bullock, the
so-called Governor of Georgia, charg
ed with Rwindling and cheating, was
on Monday night acquitted ; and
the CXtmlititlion tells .us, that there
were a number of friends In the court
rwm, upon the return of the verdict
of the jury, who Joined in hearty
congratulations over his acquittal.
Well, after all law is a farce some
times. Tiie biggest rascals often go
free through the technicalities of
law. The l>iggi*r the rascal the easier
it is fur him to go through the oyn of
a needle* If he has stolen- millions
ho has the money to get through the
eye of a needle easier than a poor
devil could go through a railroad
tunnel. We have no thoaghfc that
the eenrt and jury were corrupted.
Want of evidence hast perhaps, de
prived justice of a proper adjustment
of her wrralo**. If Bullock ia really
innocent ef the chargee against him
wrareglad, and ths verdict was right;
hot, If by meney or ortherwine
means defeated the and* >f Justice,
we can only deplore the fact that a
wrong doer has been set loose upon
society.
W hsrc not rewd the **vidnee in
the easa of Bullock, and perhaps,
ought not to say much on ths subject;
but we do know that ho did basul.v
use the fund aof tho Btivto for which
thero worn neither retviori or law.
We refiv to the matter -f tho publi
cation of nucu-rou* uroelai mtfons he
issued during Ida lvign. Every
newspapor ia iho h eotild in
duct) to accept ihetio pnbiicrtions, anJ
for no otlior purpose on Bullock’s
part ttoun to Hubaidizo tho press so
far as lio could lie employed,
wo do not remember how
many of these papers wer* s* em
ployed by him. do know
that; proclamation* of the most iu
aigniSeant imporUaus were publish
ed in papers ia every section ef the
Stats. For iuatence, if he appointed
John Smith u inspector of farliiiKsrs
tor the county of Oilmsr, hs made
prot-Hmations of the same aud had
it published is all of the papers of
the htale that accephni kia wrongly
issued patronage. How much of law
Ballwk liad for so doing wc do not
pretend to say; but we do ksv there
wjk no Justice *• tho Slate and
pit; In thu matter.
Well, Bullock i* fr**e. Hegeea out
acquitted of high and lhr
ar thoee to meet idiw and join “in
hexriy songriitulatioua ever kia ac
qultUl.” WliaWvvr has b.M tlie*
result, thu popuhir aentluiuut ta that
Bullock has escaped Juatlco by some
defect in the law or thu tastimeny—
perhaps both.
The tightening coils of threatened
resumption is crushing tliu vitality
out of ail industrial energy and en
terprise ia this country. Let no

A SILVER WEDDING DAT.
The readers ot The Express have
often seen such notices as the follow
ing:
Marrtol, in lhl city. January 11th, l#B3. ty
UT. W. 11. Krill*, of tlui Ovorgin Conlercnce,
Mr. C. H. C. Willinaham aud iti*s Lelitla
Adeline Pruitt, nil of lhi cltr.--A<Li?a //i-
The above not ice means that to
morrow is our silver wedding day.
It met ns that the editor of Tiik Ex-
PRi->a hws bcona Benedict for twen
ty-five year*. Well, that iasometitao
iu the life of man. How many live
to pco their silver wetiding ! And yet
t/iie can hardly realize that so long a
time hae elapsed, especially if he
feels vigorous and :t3 young as evsr.
To live to seo one’s silver wedding
day is one of the favoring dispensa
tions of Providence that any should
feel most grateful for. llow many
happy couples have started out in the
world that both have lived to see
their silver wedding day! The num
ber is comparatively small.
It is rfti ocoasion worthy of celebra
tion if convenient to do as. Th#
Children that have grown up around
us since that timo admonish us that
age is creeping on, and that they mr
to take our places, and that we shall
soon be remembered no more except
by those who are nearest and d#ar##fe
tous. But ,few of us can hop# to
see the golden day of married lifa.
Well, to-morrow will begin anoth
er quarter ol a century of married
life for us? What are its hope*?
Will these who have grown up
around our fireside live and prosper?
That question is the absorbiag
thought of the mind to those who
are parents. We all have our hopes
and many of usour fears as to those W'e
love best. The tempter may vanish
o#r fondest expectations, and da*h
tho cup of happiness in eld ago from
our lips. Or,_one by one may be
taken from us, while we may live on
and life becomes to us ono of gloom
and mourning. None of us who
pass our iilver wedding day can know
that the golden day may end as hap
pily as the silver day. These tilings
are in the future that none can p#ne
trate.
Well, such is life, and we shall en
deavor to be cheerful to-morrow and
resolve to live better in the future
than in the past. We shall aspect
no splendid gifts. The day must
pass as all other days must pass with
us. Weslmll be thankful and as con
tent as possible, aud struggle and
toil on with the star of Hope as our
guide and inspiration.
UNITED STATES SENATOR.
Now, this is a question about
which there should bo no attempt at
bulldozing. Wo nave more unuf uo
or two men fit for tho position. Nor
do we say that our two present sna
lOJß me unAK ft/i It A/. no bcWir
both. But tho people—wo mean the
voter#—have a right to chos# be
tween our present senators and some
one els as their terms of ex
pire. To say there are others their
equals in statesmanship and patriot
ism i# * simple statement of tho
truth. To say that either is unfaith
ful to thoir trust would he a false
statement. It would bo no dispar
agement to either If both should
meet opposition to re election.
Jlon. A. 11. Stephens has been once
elected to the senate since tho war.
Ho was k' . t out of his soat on ac
count of the reconstruction measure*
of a Radical Congress. That was a
great wrong which has never boon
requited nor preperly resented by
the poople of Georgia. That Con-'
gr#iw literally kicked % ropresanVu
ttv# of the people of Georgia otU of
tho #7*t when Mr. Stephens wx*
refused his seat in tho United Stages
senate a# tli choice of th# peoplw of
Georgia, It was an, indignity to a Fit*
people that ought to be set right on
swine pioper occasion.
Mr. Stephens’ age and infirmities
aud his great experience and pro
found statesmanship cntillo him to
unusual consideration from the Stele
and people of Georgia. The senate
Would be a more suitable forum for
him; It would give him a hrtter
Oppoituhity to fcX'dt his great in
fluence in behalf of goed govern
ment for th# people of u!i sect ions #f
the country. The truth b, after *ll
i said, thcr is no man in Congrtua
who wtelds greater, influence for
good than Mr. Stephens. This is
admitted by all fnmiiinr with the
facts; nnd li really ought to be
made our m-xt senator, however,
much the popular fooling kon#r# our
present senators.
W© know not whether Mr. Ste
phen# would enter a contest of the
#ort. \V do ku#w that there arc
thouaundd of Gaorjiau* who 4hiuk U
would he n fitting tribute to him in
his declining' yours that ha should
die in the public service as United
State# senator from Georgia.

wfjfW. W. Avery, of Georgia, is
writing for the Detroit Free Frees
sketches of celebrated Southern Gen
erals ; Rev. J. William Jones, D. D.,
of Richmond, author of the “Life of
Robert E. Lee,” and known as “tho
fighting parson of the Army of
Northern Virginia,” is writing for
the same paper a series of remarka
ble incidents in the campaigns of that
army; Henry W. Grady of Atlanta,
contributes characteristic Southern
Sketches.
The Atlanta Constitution says: “The
Ca rtersvillk Express jumps
upon all the New Year doggerel he
can find, and wrestles with it in a
manner that shows lie has a soft
place in his able stomach.” The
only “piece,’we have published in
month# is tiieone in last week’s is
sue from the pen of Phaljo Harris,
one of Uie able editors of the Consti
tution. If it was doggerel we aro de
ceived.
Wo have always had trouble about
receiving Col. Sawyer’s paper, the
Rome Tribune. After failing to see
It for five or six weeks we concluded
ho didn’t want Tiie Express and
scratched the Tribune from our ex
change list. No sooner done than
tho Tribuue began to reach our office
regularly, only a day behind. Now
let Sawyer have his paper mailed
promptly and regularly.
The rocent marriage of John Long,
of Clayton county, to Miss Leonore
Little, reminds us that after so long
a lime their greatest matrimonial
troubles will ho litlles ones.
And now Phaljo Harris concedes
that he constructs doggerel. IfPhatyjo
don’t quit writing doggerel, we shall
cease publishing it as being clover
verse-. Do you hear, Phatyjo ?
We don’t get tho Atlanta Tribune.
Sorry lor it because it is a livo paper
and wo wunt it, and we want it bad.
Well, "wo expected an invitation to
the Rex ball in Atlanta. Hijim said
he’d send it, but ho didn’t.
