Tilts sparkling amlj’bripblly Illustrsted Weekly, humcrojs aodj fatirical paper lias entered upon the srveetli pear of its jollv existence, and tbe publishers t ike pride in saying that it will not be a whit b.bind any thing that is American. Ihe publishers of Wild Oats point with pride to tlie wholly uuexampled success of their paper, and, pledgeing themselves that et seall be injtlie future even better tvan in the past, thev ask a continuance of that kind patronage which has placed it at the head and fiout of American humorous pape s. We have made arrangements wnicli will enable us to present Wild Oats in a brighter and better shape than heretofore, having recently taken p - ssersion of our new puldi cation office, and had fine coppcr-faced type cast especially for us, together with all the vast parphern.alia required in the production of sucii a paper ns we give tlie public at he low price of ten cents per copy. We have also made arrangements with some new artists, and shall at the same time re tain such old favorites as THOMAS WORTH, FRANK BELLEW, HOPKINS, WOOLF, WALES, FRANK BEARD, BIKBEE, OPPFR. STOIECKHAUDT, ROTHENGATTER, BEN day, kettells, palmer cox mann. KING BURY. STULL. WHITE. SPERRY, EATON, SHELDON, etc’, while the editori al department will still remain in the hands of its founder, tlie vivacious Bricktot, of whom enough is known without more being said. As nn additional inducement to subscribe for the Centennial year, we have at great expense prepared a comic chouio the crown ing ffort ot that graphic momus, Hopkms. It ii a work of ait, worthy of an elegant frame, and is worth at least one half the price asked for the subscription. It is a ‘ horse piece," bcir g a burlesque of Mazeppa tied to tlie back of the fiery, untamed steed. A copy will be sent to each subscriber during tlie year. Advertisers are beginning to find out that Wild Oats reaches a greater number of live men than any other illustrated paper in America, and therefore it is a first class me dimn of advertising. To those who know Wild Oats we need not say that it has not. does not, and will not contain a word or an illustration which may not lie taken in every family in the land. Fun we give in various sized doses, but never vulgarity in any shape. It is thoroughly American in sentiment, wholly original, sharp and incisive, and right to the point in dealing with men and events of the day. One corv at ant timk will ccnvinc* you or ring.

WASHINGTON UNION. lie will, of oourse, begin his sen atorial career as conservativelyfas he has closed his representative career. WASHINGTON SPECIAL TO CINCINNATI ENQUIRER. Ben Ilill is as much tickled over the senatorship as is a small boy w i j, anew tin horn. LYNCHBURG NEWS. Ben Ilill steps into life senate, the match of any man in it, and says, “I am in my father’s house. I have come back and I mean to e:ay.” ST. LOUIS HEFUBLICAN. Senator-elect Hill visited tho sen ate chamber to-day and was warmly greeted by tho senators, Mr. B ainc among the first. - N. Y. WORLD. Mr. Ilill in the upper chamber may be expected to prove a moderate, industrious and patriotic colleague for General Gordon. Ilis earnest and manly speech will not soon be forgotten. DAYTON, OHIO, JOURNAL, REP. Notwithstanding the larruping Blaine gave to Ben Hill, we are rather glad that he has got into the senate. Blane will get another chance at him unless he comes over to our side, which is not among the impos sibilities. BALTIMORE GAZETTE, Mr. Ben. Hill is elected to the sen ate, and this is regarded as a victory of the younger element in politics. Tho old bell-weathers of the ante war democracy were onposed to Mr. Ilill, but Benjamin was too strong for them. CHATTANOOGA TIME- 1 . Senator Ilill owes iris election to the young men of his state, yrho have made him their hero, and who have the utmost confidence in him. He iihou'd forget the bitlerness of the contest in which he Ims triumph ed, Hud lei hi* jmiirotisrt* keep pice with iiis amb'tion. MOBILE’ REGISTER. There is no doubt that Mi. Hill is one of tlie ablest and bravest of our Southern leaders. His grasp of in tellect is broad nnd powerful, and his industry is untiring. In oratory he is unequalled, and now that lie h.as a splendid field lor his labors, we will find him an Ajax for the South, defending the rights ol his people and carrying the battle into tlie camp of the enemy. SELMA TIMES. In the senate Mr. Hill will have an ample scopo for debate, and it. is safe to say that he will rank with the ablest men in that body. lie will there meet his former adversary, Mr. Blaine, and, should occasion arise, administer to him a greater castiga tion than he did on the amnesty de bate in the house last session. Mr. Hill is in tne prime and vigor of life, and is a man of commanding appear ance, and possesses immense persona! magnetism. A brilliant career is cer tainly before him. N 1 W YORK SUN. Ben Ilill has won the position of senator from Georgia, notwithstand ing the strong opposition to him which has lately been developed* and which at onetime promised to secure his defeat in the Georgia legislature. Ben is among the abler tnen in con gress from tne south, though occa sionally inclined to he slightly erratic. It was some words of his in the house, last year, that provoked the display which Jim Blaine made of himself when he brought out the “horrors of Andersonville.” Both Hill and Blaine have since ,hen been sent to the senate. BOSTON ADVERTISER. The transfer of Mr. Hill to the senate maxes a vacancy in the lower house, which will have to he filled by anew election. We must con dole with the disappointed Republi cans of the seventh district in this State, who last General Butler to congress on purpose to quarrel with Ben Hill. It is a very sad case; but we suppose Mr. Blaine can he trusted to take care of Mr. Hill in the senate, while Butler, no doubt, find abundant occasion for the exercises of his peculiar contro versial talent. NEW YORK TRIBUNE. The Unised States senate seems to he in luck. To supplant Genera! Lo gan with Judge Davis, and to re place a man of moderate ability like Mr. Norwood with a man of power HAMILTON. HARRIS CO., GA„ FRIDAY, FEBRUARY 9, 1877 like Mr. Hill, menus a gain for the senate in brains, if not in Itepubli can votes. Thus far, certainly, the South has done its share toward re deeming this body from the blight of mediocrity that has fallen on it in late years, and tho prac ice which seems now to obtain among South ern Demoora’s of renominating iu bulk their delegates to the house gives promise of a series of trained statesmen of like skill to those who ruined the country before tho war. BALTIMORE SUN. Mr. Hill’s election to the senate Is a great personal triumph, and it is known he was opposed by nearly every leading politician, including ex-Gov. brown and Hon. Robert Toombs. Ii is a little singular that ex-speaker Blaine and Mr. Hill, who led their respective parties in the furious political debate which took place in tho early days of the lasi session, should both bo transferred to the higher brand) of congress, where they w ill doubtless have oc casion to renew their gladiatorial en counters. Mr. 11.11 is a man of re markable oratorical powers, a debater of rare skill and resources, but has heretofore been regarded as an im practicable politician. His election how ever, as senator, under the ad verse circumstances of his candicacy, by a legislature fresh from the peo ple, shows that ho has a firm hold on the popular heart ot Georgia. k MEMPHIS AVALANCHE Mr. Hill is tho foremost man m Georgia in point of ability, and ranks in congress among the ablest of its members. The Georgians are prond of his intellectual vigor and force; hut there is deenly grounded in the man a nationality of sentiment to which the irreconcilable Bourbons object. lie cannot always be de pended on to recognize the partisan di ill senrgent, and lie was a union man in ISOI. All the ultras could not reconcile with their viiws of statesmanship; so-during the senato rial sinvoss they kept im a yaking fire on old Ben from all along the line. It was useless;he broke down their combinations and won a victory all the more glorious because achiev ed in tho face of such strong and per.-istent opposiii"tt. NUW YORK HERALD. The election of Ben Hill to the U S senate from Georgia, wi’t give much satisfaction to the people of all seel ions irrespective of parly divi sions. The opposition to tlie sureess ful candidate came from the extreme southern element, and grew out of the conservative position oacupied by Mr. Ilill on questions that have for tlie past two years, and notably since the Presidential elec ion, agitated tlie country. The qualities which won for Mr. Ili 1 the respect and admira tion of the best citizens of the repub lic made extreme and violent parti sans his enemies. Ilis defeat"in tlie senatorial struggle would have been the triumph of the radical elenr nt in the north, as well as of the fue eating element of the south , and his elec tion therefore takes the character of a national victory. CINCINNATA ENQUIRER. Mr. Hill can hardly be said to he a represenative of Georgia statesmen but he is a man ot ability. He had the opposition of the leading men of tlie stale, hut triumphed through the prejudices of tho unthinking classes. Senco his eloyation to congress Mr. Hill has labored assidioudy to gain the hostility of the northern repub licans. His speeches have not been much the out growth of indiscretion as the result of a systematic plan to incur the displeasure of northern men and then appeal to the ultra element of his state for elevation. He has gained his promotion through ques tionable methods, hut it is to be hoped that the democratic party will still be able to carry such loads. We have not looked with favor upon Mr Hill, because he belongs to a school of southern politicians whose mission is personal agrandizement througli harm. A man like Garland or La mar or Hampton is worth more to the south just dow than a hundred mean and narrow and scfi.di nnd tur bulant fellows like Ilill. - CHARI,OTT OBSERVER Tlie election of Ben Hill to 1 lie United States senate from Georgia shows the wonderful hold he had upon the people of the state. From the begining to the end of the strug gle, it was essentially a fight between tr.e politicians on one side and tlie people on the other the people were triumphant when they saw the man they preferred nboro all others elected over the powerful opposition brought to bear against him. In fact nearly all tho politicians of thu state were bitterly opposed to Mr. Hill, and worked night and day for his defeat, and would no doubt haye accomplished their nut pose, but the people look the matter in hand, held mass meotings ovpr the stnte, and in structed their legislators for whom to vote. Asa fervid orator and a pow erful debater Ben .Ililf”is the peer of any men in the United States senate, uor will he sit silently by and listen to the slanders of Blaine or any other politician against tho land of his birth. We cotigratilate Geoagia upon her new senator. W ABIUNGTON S-PtflAL TO CHICAGO Tints. Tho good feeling over Judge Da vice is to great extent shared in Bon Ililt’s astonishing triumph over such opposition as few men ever merit, for not only a strong faction of his own party, but the republicans here and iu Georgia conspired to lead iiis state against him. his succes to day was shared by a iarge part of both parties in the house and senate, and bis whereabouts during the day was a constant levee of felicitation and congratulation. lie had barely set down from oneoftbe most touch ing and eloquent outbursts of the day sn favor of the compromise, the last words of which rang in the ears ol every one who lterad them for hours. “I love those who loro my country; I curse those who curse mo country,” w hen the telegram was put in nis hand saying,“Glory! you are elected!” Ilis face was suffused with inexpress ible joy, and he handed the welcome announcement to his, next neighbor, in two minutes it was known all over the lloor and an incessant stream poured over to shake hands. He owned that there was a doubt on his mind last nignt as to his ability to break through his enemies, but he declared that the iu'> > 1 - c " who knew him and trusted him, did the work. They sent a delegations and petitions from nearly every dis trict and county in the state, demand ing their representatives to vole for him, “That elected me,’’ said lie, •“not the party people, for they wero not my fricnd.”A more supremly happy man the country does not contain, nor does he he-itate lo own it. lie, tlike Judge Davis, feels touched by the confidence and good opinion ot his stale. A Liar’s Story. The fact that Detroiters are long suffering and kind-heated was again exemplified yesterday. One of tho dozen passengers on a Woodward nventio car suddenly remarked that i:. was an awful snow storm, and that he never saw so much snow on the ground before. “Pooh!’’ exclaimed a little whiffet of a man in the corner; “lliia is no format all! Why, in Omaha I have seen forty seyen feet of snow on tbe ground at once !” ‘ Buried the town, didn’t it?” queried the man opposite. ‘ Of course it buried tlie town, hut that was all right. We dug out the snow nnd left a crust, as a sort of sky, and in three days we had sum mer weather down there. Hose* bloomed, peach trees blossomed, and tho hoys went in swimming, the same as in July t Don’t ta'k lo me about such storms as this 1” “W-whnt became of tho crnt?” gasped a man at tlie front end of the car. It hangs up there yet!’’ replied the noble liar, ‘ and tlie man who doubts my word wants to step off the car for half a minute I” There that whole dozen men sat ns clams, not dari g to even wink at eacit other, or to enter a protest, while tho little man branched off anew and began telling that ho had seen hail-stoncs weighing six pounds each. Fort \ alley Mirror. —Houston county has three thousand three hun dred sriil thirty-five voters, and eight hundred and fourteen laborers, be tween tlie ages of sixteen and sixiy fivc years. It isn’t the low price of cotton, or the political troubles of the country that is going to ruin it; it is the disposition to lean up against the sunny side of the fence, or sit over a handful of goods in a little store, and let roine o'.lier fell nv speed the plow. * Co:;stitutional Conmitiou- Full text of the act to provide for tiik holding of a convkn -7 ION OF TIIE TECPT.E OF GEORGIA FOR TUB TUJtPO K OF REVISING HIK C 'NSTI I UTI N OF • VII> STATE.

Franklin Fetes: —Oun River.— When we look at the numerous lulls on our beautiful river, we feel sad in knowing how little enterprise we have as a people, Wo have splen did natural facilities for manufactur ing anything we need, hero at our doors. What n lively lime wo would have in Franklin, if wo had a couple of largo cotton and wool factories near by. They would furnish labor nnd money to our people. We might have factories for all sorts ol agricultural implimenls. We live sufficiently near the iron mines to make it profitable. Get an enter prise of that sort started, and busi ness would soon require another railroad. Wo trust our people will turn their attention more to mnnu fncttiring. Georgia has finer facilities for manufacturing tlnn any other Southern State; all tire noed is a spirit of enterprise; if we had this, eapitol wou'd soon flow tn. Jl'itlcr JJe r ald , —On Monday, Otlil ultimo, at 12 o’clock m. or a few min ute* after this time, tlie people of this town, and for miles around, as far as we could learu, were shocked by what is suoppsed to have been nn e.fi uiquaKe. The crockery m mo houses rattled, and '.lie shock was felt by every oue we have seen for twelve or fifteen miles.
