Our Gainesville Advertisers.
Fspecial attention is invited to the adver
tisements of several friends in Gainesville.—
])r Bradley lias an excellent assortment in
liis line, and a most beautiful arranged store
room, together with obliging and attentive
clerks; while as a physician and sociable
citizen in every respect, the Dr, Stands in
the front rank.
Mr. Early lingers, the Photographist, has
a word to say. In his line, we desire to call
especial notice to his copying department. —
Among his specimens in this line of his art
we saw, personally, work that will compare
favorably with that of any artist in this or
any section. Give him a call and examine
hi* work for yourself.
To tlic afflicted, Mr. Tom Merck offers
something in the way of relief. Send for
circular. It will be seen the city physicians
all endorse him.
Messrs. Smith & Jenkins will appear be
fore the readers of the News before long.—
They have just moved in their new store,
and have the largest assortment of goods, we
expect, in N. E. Georgia.
Onr former citizen and fellow-townsman.
Dr. 11. J. Long, has a fine assortment of
Drugs, Paints, and Medicines. Most of our
readers know the I)r, too well to need an in
troduction from us. In his establishment
you will he waited on by an experienced
druggist. Call and see him.
Dr. W. P. DeLaperriere,
Marcus, Ga., requests us to call the attention
of his many friends and patients to the fact
that he lias employed Mr. J. \Y. Lyle, of his
neighborhood, to wait upon them and close
up their accounts. The Doctor has had a
goodly batch of blank notes printed and says
lie wants to close up his outstanding accounts
—if not by cash in hand—at least by note.
In this, we hope our young and talented
friend may be quite successful; for we are
gratified to learn from those in the area of
his professional territory, Ihat he has been
uVist prompt and courteous in the discharge
of his medical duties. As the News has a
good circulation in the regions round about
tlic Dr.’s practice, we take the liberty of re
minding all interested that the ‘‘laborer is
worthy of his hire.”

Visit to Atlanta and the “ Queen City of
Northeast Georgia.”
In pursuance of a long cherished intention,
the Managerofthe News has been fertile great
er portion of the present week, “off duty,”
and endeavoring to combine pleasure with
business in a visit to the cities above alluded
to. Beaching home on Thursday Ip. m., he
found the columns of the paper so well filled
by the gentlemen acting as Eds. pro tem.,
that there is little room for comment as to the
many pleasing incidents of his “excursion.”
It was our first visit to Atlanta since the war;
hence everything appeard new. The pleas
ure of the visit was largely enhanced, howev
er, by meeting many friends and acquaint
ances of former days—some of whom had
not been met with in many many years. To
the representatives of the entire “press” of
the Gate City are we most grateful for the
courteous manner in which we were received
and the many encomiums passed upon the
“management” of the News. These gentle
men, will, in the absence of all particularizing
or detail, please accept heartfelt acknowledge
ments.
Our day’s experience in the city of Gaines
ville, was pleasant indeed. To Messrs. Blatz,
Lawshe, (whom we met on the cars) Craig,
Estes. Col. Styles, and several of the respect
ed typos, we feel under obligations for their
cordial expression of interest in behalf of the
News and its humble manager. To £Jol.
Styles, especially, are we indebted for an in
troduction to several of the business gentle
men ot the “Queen City.” On some future
occasion—when time and space will more ful
ly allow—this subject may again be reverted
to.
I# Me would suggest, to our friends who
want Pictures or Frames, that they will find
it, to their interest to see Mr. Jay (). Gailey,
the Agent for the Athens Furniture Manu
facturing Company. at No, 12 Broad Street,
who does the neatest and finest work in this j
hue. and wifi give you the largest, assortment
ol Moul ling to select from that can be found
in the city. Prices very moderate.
“The Sunny South.”
To John 11. Seals, Esq., Editor and Pro
prietor, are we indebted for an ‘‘exclgxnge”
with bis highly meritorious literary sheet, of
the above name find title. \Ye shall speak
more at length of this journal when a better
opportunity offers. In the meantime, we sug
gest that homo talent should command home
patronage.
17^All kinds and sizes of Coffins and Bur
ial Cases, at the Athens Furniture Manufac
turing Company. No. 12 Broad Street,.
It#* When you ordered fruit trees of the
Nashville Commercial Nurseries, you gave
your note for the amount, of your bill, which
will be due on the 24th dav of November.
Don’t forget it.
That the Capitol Should Remain at Atlanta,
Is a fact with which the writer is more than
ever impressed, by a short commingling
with the people to a small extent. The citi
zens of Northeast Georgia are fullv .alive on
the subject and will make a “good showing”
when the proper time arrives. More anon.
i TrTt is no longer a thing of the imagina
tion. but a established fact,, that our neigh
boring city, Athens, has reached the front
rank in the purchase and sale of Furniture,
and that the Athens Furniture Manufacturing
Company has reached the point from which
it can pmhaMy defy competition in this line.
This strong Company carries a stock equal
to any found in the larger cities South, and
is determined, if low prices and variety of
stock will do it, to hold the trade of North
east Georgia.
5 # All who ordered fruit trees of the Com
mercial Nurseries, at Nashville, last summer,
to tie delivered at Athens, on the 24th day
of November, will please remember the time
and come after their trees promptly on that
day.
“ Restriction.”
Mr. E dttoii :—The Temperance Advocate
wishes to know, “By what right the City
Council of Jefferson orders a man to close
his business at a certain time.” We are sur
prised at such a question from Brother Throw
er, who, w r e believe, is a public lecturer, and
who has a great deal to say about legislation
on the subject of temperance.
We supposed that almost any one would
know that the same authority which can
grant or withhold licenses, can fix the condi
tions of such licenses.
Further on, brother Thrower argues that
we ought to close the business altogether,
but at the same time he can’t understand by
what authority we close it at 8 o’clock at
night—in other words, we can destroy a
man's business, but we cannot limit it—we
may hang him, but we must not imprison
him. Men who think but one idea, or see
but one side of a question, are apt to run into
such absurdities.
Again, Bro. T. says we are responsible for
all the evils growing out of the sale of liquor
here; because we license it. We wonder if
the State is responsible for all the sins of
lawyers, druggists, doctors, etc., because it
licenses them ! Are Good Templars respon
sible for all the blunders of Bro. T. because
they license and pay him as agent and lec
turer ?
We wish well to the cause of temperance,
and we icork for it; but we choose to be our
own judges as to the best means to promote
it ; and we make no extravagant charges
against those who do not w’ork by our plans.
We like Bro. Thrower, and we mean no
unkindness in what we say above ; but we
suggest to him that extreme views, and harsh
talk about those who do not adopt his enthu
siastic (we had almost said fanatic) plans,
will injure rather than benefit his cause.
One of tiie Coixcil.
To Correspondents.
In the absence of the Manager, for the past
several days, some communications have been
received, which will meet with attention in
due time.
fail to go to Athens after your
fruit trees on the 24th day of November, as
vou promised to do when you gave the order.
Remember the Agents have other deliveries
to make, and can’t wait on slow coaches.

The Forty-Fifth Congress
Met at the time appointed and organized
with far less difficulty than was anticipated.
Many coalitions were attempted to defeat
Mr. Randall; the Republicans proposing to
support a Southern man if tlic members from
the South would combine with them ; but the
latter most judiciouslly and positively declin
ed any such union, and decided to support
Randall, who was unanimously nominated in
the Democratic caucus. This defeated all
hopes of the Radicals and Randall was made
speaker without trouble. llis inaugural was
very conservative, but insisted that the poli
cy of reform and economy commenced by the
democrats last session should be faithfully
carried out by the present Congress. The
southern members generally, considering that
the Electoral Commission settled the ques
tion of the Presidency, object to any further
discussion of that subject and approve of Mr.
Randall’s conservative policy.
in the senate
there has been much discussion and some
wrangling over the claimants to seats from
Louisiana. The credentials were finally re
ferred to the “committee on privileges and
election.”
THE president’s MESSAGE
is short, plain, practical and confined to the
business for which the extra session was call
ed. lie sends in estimates of appropriations
which mast be made to keep up the arm}' and
navy, &e. Some consider these estimates too
high, and democrats are inclined to examine
each claim and item carefully before apply
ing a uy monev. The President recommends
a very brief session ; but many members are
disposed to go into general subjects, and
pass, as soon as possible, bills to postpone re
sumption of specie payment, to remonetize
silver, an 1 to prevent further contraction of
the currency. These are all good measures
and ought to be put through at tlic earliest
moment possible.
Cuba-The Patriots Yet Unconquered.
After nine years struggle, and after having
been reported, by the Spanish authorities, as
crushed every year, the patriots of Cuba are
stronger and more hopeful than ever. They
declare that the Spanish authorities, at the
opening of every session of Congress, instruct
their officers at Washington to assure our
government that peace is about to tie made
on the island. The Patriots say this is done
to prevent our government from recognizing
their independence. They also state that
these assurances contain not, one word of
truth, as the government of Spain has never
offered terms to which they would listen. Ab
solute and unconditional independence is the
only propositions which they will entertain.
Army after army lias been sent, to crush them,
and has melted away under their climate, and
before the detailed attacks of Patriot bands.
The last, heavy force on which Spain relied
so confidently has been so reduced by levers
as to be hardly able to hold its position, much
less to assume the aggressive. More than
12,000 men have succumbed to the climate
in the past few months, and the patriots are
now more confident of success than ever.—
They say that Spain has offered to pardon all
offences, restore all confiscated propertv,
make up all losses, give their officers equal
positions in the Spanish army, and allow them
an automatic government of their own, if tliev
will only make peace and return to their al
legiance : but they say that they have struck
for independence, and they mean to have it
or be annihilated. This brave, patriotic peo
ple certainly deserve the right to rule them
selves, and we hope they may get, it,. It is
certainly folly in Spain to contend any lon
ger. The conquest will cost her far more
than the subjugated island could ever repay.
Senator Morton.
The following extract is said to embrace
the sentiments and ideas of Senator Morton
as regards the President’s “Southern pol
icy” :
There seems to be a feeling on the part of
those who disapprove of certain acts of the
president that they are better republicans and
more faithful to the principles of the partv
than he. Such assumption does injustice to
the president. He is an original republican,
and has been tested for twenty years as a
soldier and civilian, and has never wavered
or been found wanting in his devotion to the
great fundamental doctrines of the republican
party. lie was elected as a republican, and
it is impossible for him, with the present or
ganization of parties, even if he should so
desire, to act other than as a republican presi
dent. Until it is demonstrated that lie has
not this devotion and this desire, the republi
cans in congress should not break with him
on mere questions of policy. President
Ilayes has a most difficult role, and. instead
of receiving the unfriendly criticisms and
attacks of his party friends, lie should receive
their support and be given their best advice.
The president's paramount duty is to the
country, and if ho were to place simple party
success above the public interest lie would
render himself hateful to every right minded
man and infamous in history.

The Tipton White Prolific Corn.
I BOUGHT one thousand grains of this Corn
last Spring, and paid £2..>0 lor it. Mr. E. <l.
Wigington planted and cultivated it for me. There
was just one-eiglith of an acre, on very thin pine
land, and it was just beginning to silk* and tassel
wlvcn the drought came on the first of July, and
notwithstanding the poor land and dry weather,
it yielded at the rate of forty bushels per acre.
The corn is perfectly white, good size ears, large.
Hat grains, shells quite easy, and has from three
to six ears on each stalk. ‘lt is from three to four
weeks earlier than common corn, and stands
drought much better. It is better suited to thin
upland than any corn f ever saw, and will make
three times as much on any kind of land. I will'
sell a small quantity at One Dollar per Quart.
This may appear high for corn, but I had the grains
counted to me at 25 cents per hundred. I refer
you to Mr. Wigington ami Mr. J. L. Williamson.
