A Card,
Athens, Ga., Nov. 6th, 1878.
Editor Forest News:— l have recently
learuad there is a report in circulation in your
county that Mr. Thomas IT. Niblack, Clerk
of the Superior Court, misplaced a bond in
tlie “Newt. Simpkins case” for the purpose
of shielding the defendant.
I desire to state through your columns, in
order that justice may be done a faithful and
efficient officer, that the report is entirely
without foundation. The bonds given by Mr.
Simpkins were produced by Mr. Niblack when
called for by me. There was some misap
prehension at the time as to the number of
funds given in the case. It was thought, • y
some, that there had been three given, wlieie
as there were only two, both of which were
produced in Court when called for by me.
1 have always found Mr. Niblack prompt,
courteous and honorable in the discharge of
ft it his official duties, and my only purpose in
writing this card is to refute an unjust accu-

A Sad Accident.
A- terrible accident happened in the settle

We can obtain, the following are the correct
\ It seems that the mother of
a child left it in charge of its little sister
w ‘ l '‘ e she went to the spring, and while gone
liie child by some means got so close to the
ure that its clothing caught. The little girl
r an for the mother at once, but before she
could get there tho ohild was so badly burnt

ir >ors. This sad affair should be a warning
0 mothers about this too common habit of
having children to take care of their little

Things 1 Like.
1. I like to see strong, healthy young men,
loafing here and there, wandering from pillar
to po9t, complaining of the hard times and
the scarcity of money, while there are thou
sands of acres of land all around them, only
waiting to be tilled in order to yield a bounti
ful harvest.
2. I like to see young men, born and bred
on a farm—a place where a comfortable and
independent living can be made with the aid
of a good will and the use of a strong muscle
—leave it for city life and a clerkship, which
pays them barely sufficient to board and
clothe them, and demands the whole of their
time. What high aspirations the}' have !
3. I like to see farmers go to town every
rainy day, and folding their hands in idle
ness, complain that “the times are out of
joint, farming don’t pay, money is hard to
get, free niggers won't work, and the neigh
bors' stock forevermore breaking in,” and
calling for a fence law ; when their fences are
so rotten the wind almost levels them or they
fall of their own weight; the wagon stands
out in the sunshine and rain ; the gear lies
in different places ; the plows are scattered
liere and there in the weather ; the stable
doors are propped up with rails; the gates
are ready to fall; the steps are tottering ; the
doors are creaking ; the window sashes are
rattling, with half the glass out, letting in the
wind and rain, and the blinds hanging by one
hinge, slamming with every passing breeze,
&c.. &e., and nothing in place and everything
going to decay. It shows enterprise, and
thrift, and pride; and the surprising thing
about it is, that they don’t get rich, these hard
times. And, then, are they not too busy to
give so much attention to these unimportant
matters ?
4. I like those gates which, in order to en
ter, requires the strength of a Samson or the
muscle of a young giant to lift and open, and
which in opening swags to such an extent that
it makes a furrow almost as deep as that of a
scooter plow. What are gates made for if not
to lift open by main strength, and notio swing
like doors ? and for what was man’s muscle
given him if not to lift gates and open them
by putting forth all your strength ? And
then, the advantage of such gates is that they
are not swinging open by every passing
breeze. It is good to have gates which will
remain in a given place, when so placed.
5. I like to visit those places where the
children and grown people and little free nig
gers peep through the cracks of the doors and
around the corners of the house, as you ride
np and enter the yard, gazing at you with
that intensity which characterizes those who
are viewing wild beasts, and watching you
with as much curiosity as if you were an in
habitant of another world, just arrived, or a
wild man with horns like a cow and wings
like a bird, just from the jungles of India or
the desert of Africa. Such children, little
free niggers and others never before in liioir
lives saw a stranger; and the sight of one to
them is a show next to a traveling circus or
a moving menagerie. And then, how com
fortable and easy it makes a timid, t aekward,
diffident, retiring, modest, shamefaced easilv
excited young man feel to be the observed of
all observers, while his ears are greeted with
the sweet strains of the barking of hungry
hounds and starving fiee at his heels ! He
feels so much at home !

Eccentricity.
Washington Letter.
[From our regular Correspondent ]
Washington, D. C., Nov. 12.
After a desperately fought campaign on
their part, the Republicans have failed to
wrest the National House of Representa
tives from the Democrats, and the Forty-
Sixth Congress is what your readers were
early assured it would be—Democratic in
both branches. The majority in the House is
about twenty, and in the Senate halfas many.
The return of Lord Roscoe Conkling and
Don Cameron to the latter body, from New
York and Pennsylvania, being overwhelming
ly assured, is the share of substantial bene
fits falling to the Republicans. For New
York no other result could scarcely have
been expected. With an outrageous gerry
mander of legislative districts, which gave a
Republican Legislature in the face of 40.000
Democratic majority in the State, and with
no particular Senatorial aspirants to inspire
or direct the fight, it must have been a losing
one at best. And worse than all that, the
Empire State Democracy is sadlv afflicted
with schisms and personal antagonisms which
usually come to a head, so to speak, in the
midst of important contests. Whatever the
opinion of any Democrat as to the advisa
bility of defeating Tammany Hall, it certain
ly seems unfortunate that one half the party
in the great Democratic stronghold of New
York City must coalesce with the Republi
cans on the occasion of an important Con
gressional and Senatorial election. Nobody
outside of tiie city cares a continental which
wins, Tammany or anti-Tammany, except so
far as the warfare tends to weaken the party
and interfere with its discipline. The Dem
ocrats of the nation hope to see this quarrel
effectually and finally healed before another,,
general election. It is time there was an end
of this setting up of personal authority and
cross purposes. Let the people—the voters
of the party—nominate their candidates in
New York as they do every where else, and
then vote for them in solid phalanx.
In Pennsylvania the Democrats fought un
der more favorable conditions, and ol the re
sult it can only be said, the triumph is Came
ron's own. lie bought it and paid for it. as
his father before him has done “many a time
and oft.” The State is simply Cameron's
plantation, the possession of which remains
in the family after the manner of the English
lawofentailment. It is to-day, as it has been
years, the most corrupt commonwealth in
America. Pennsylvania may not relish be
ing told this, but it is true. The unscrupu
lous methods and corrupt practices of Came
ron are known and acknowledged, yet when
an opportunity arrives to rebuke them and
shake off the disgrace, the hide-bound parti
sans and marketable classes walk up to the
polls together with a degree of effrontry nev
er witnessed anywhere else. Open barter is
made with dangerous elements, and condemn
ed convicts are given a life to work for Cam
eron, civil service reform, and “addition, di
vision, and silence.” So long as this condi
tion of things is tolerated the Iveyst me State
needs no sympathy. Cameron's disburse
ments in this struggle amount to tens of thou
sands, and are only equalled by the enormous
expenditures of the Republican Campaign
(. ommittee of this city.
Now, that the campaign is over, it is pro
per to contrast the general management of it,
and point out llie weak spots on our own side.
On the part of the Republicans there has
been great activity combined with skill and
ability, to say nothing of unlimited money
resources. The cash has been freely and ef
fectively used, where it would do the most
good. The office-holders and candidates
have raised large sums, while the national
banks and kindred interests have contributed
their share. With none of these resources to |
draw upon, the Democratic Committees have :
had almost no money at all. But worse than |
that, there lias been a fatal lack of energy
and proper direction. It seems to be the
fault of nearly all campaigns on our part, that
we lack in organized intelligence, so to speak.
There is ability enough in the Democratic
party, but a seeming want of that alertness
and cuteness which does the right thing at
the critical moment —a lack of that system
atic thoroughness which knows, too, when
and where the rub is to be. This is not writ
ten with a view of upbraiding any particular
committee or persons, but in general terms
it is noticable that when the fight narrows
down to a contest of brass and wit the Re
publicans mostly win. The Tilden campaign
of 1876, was the best conducted in many
years, on the Democratic side, and the blun
ders that lost the Presidency were all made
after the votes had been cast and the battle
won. In the present campaign another point
in contrast is the conduct of the leading Dem
ocratic and Republican newspapers. The
Republican papers have been active and en
ergetic. The Democratic, with some excep
tions, apathetic, even indifferent. In New
York two of the Democratic papers have sup
ported Republican candida f es for Congress,
and a combination ticket against regular
j Democratic nominees. Correspondents rep
| resenting Republican newspapers have done
an immense amount of work which cannot
fail to be effective. The correspondents of
the Democratic papers on the other hand have
not been invited or encouraged in any efforts
; they have made in that direction. To the
honor of the country press it has mostly done
its duty well.
Taking atl these things into’consideration,
the Democracy is to be congratulated that it
; has held its own in this contest. Had the
House been lost the probability of u Demo
cratic President two years hence would have
been very materially weakened. Before that
time it is to be hoped that all differences will
be adjusted, and that the part}' will go into
the campaign with its old-time zeal and de
termination. Under these conditions suc
cess is assured. The Radical claim of victo
ry this time is simply ridiculous. It would
require a microscope of great power to dis
cover any aggregate ‘•gain" in their favor.
They would seem to he tickled because the
Democrats have not annihilated them wholly
and carried a two-thirds majority of Congress ;
which would probably have been done but for
the reasons refered to above.

Bl<s*opolling' a Thoroughfare.
In order to guard against results utterly sub
versive of health, it is absolutely essential that
. the grand thoroughfare or avenue of the system,
the bowels, should be re-opened as speedily as
possible when they become obstructed. If they
are not, the bile is misdirected into the blood ;
the liver becomes torpid ; viscid bilious matter
gets into the stomach, and produces indigestion ;
headaches ensue, and other symptoms are pro
duced, which a prolongation of the exciting cause
only tends to aggravate. The aperient properties
of Hostetler's Stomach Bitters constitute a most
useful agent in overcoming constriction of the
bowels, and promoting a regular habit of body.
It is intinitcly superior to the drastic cathartics
frequently used for the purpose, since it does not,
like them, act violently, but produces a natural,
painless effect, which does not impair the tone of
the evacuatory organs, which it invigorates in
stead of weakening. The stomach and liver, also,
indeed the entire system, is strengthened and
regulated bv it.
