SATURDAY MORNING, APRIL 2ifcl>.
HON. A. H. STEPHENS THE DARIEN
GAZETTE AND THE COVINGTON
ENTERPRISE THEREON.
The two fuglemen who profess to
edit the Covington Enterprise are
anxious to get us into a discussion
of the merits of the illustrious
American Statesman, Alexander H.
Stephens. To accomplish this end
that, magnificent sheet indulges in
an enormous amount of vitupera
tion, abuse and blackguardism. In
that line xvo are compelled, without
hesitation, to admit the superiority
of our most worthy conlemporary. At
the outset, to excuse its subsequent
ebulitions of vulgar and gaseous
wrath, it speaks of our article as a
“tirade of abuse and low vulgarity
against Alexander H. Stephens.”
We reprint the artioe that the peo
ple of Georgia may judge whether
or not it is obnoxious to the charge :
HOW It AYE TEE MIGHTY FATTEN !
Wo took occasion in-the first issue of the
Gazette nfter the fire to itemize the fact
that “Alex” 11. Stephens of Georgia, in
company with Beast Butler, Morton, A
.Cos., did not vole wjdutxl tho Civil Rights
bill. This notico has elicited a venomous
response from the Enterprise of the village
of Covington, Ga. Without pausing to re
late the many reasons that would justify a
severe condemnation of the "post helium”
career of a legislator, once held In high es
teem hv the citizens of this State and the
entire South, or the utter and full measure,
in common with the leading journals of
the South our surprise at the continual si
lence of Mr. Stephens on tiro Louisiana
outrages, the Force and Civil Rights bills,
we linger upon tho thought of the sad and
pitiable condition of a onc.e great man,
who is to be bolstered by such flimsy de
■fenc ) and by such impotent succor as that
which is brought to him by tho Enterprise
of Covington. This Sir Oracle of Coving
ton, Georgia, intimates that in our iinpii
•cd condemnation of Mr. Stephens for not
voting (or pairing off) wo evidence either
malignity "or what is as bad,” ingorance,
and with ail the grand assumption of a
crossroad expositor of things in general,
proceeds to explain tho nature of a “pair
off’ and its effects upon tho result. Truly
a "Daniel come to judgement." From the
•crown of our hat to the soles of our boots
wo ought to feel surcharged with gratitude
■for this loarued commentary upon the
ways and customs of Legislators and we
Tecommend for its author a place in a
niche along- b of the highest yet given
■to the most .i;-,.'inguished of court jesters.
Now that he L.u set ids lance at. rest us
champion of “liilk Alev!," let nil the world
keep silence and stand in awe of this
doughty warrior. Let them but wait a
little while and perhaps some Ccrvnutes
will give to record a story of exploit more
marvelous and ridiculous than that
which we at present take cognizance of,
and which in the fulness of theirjfoolish
ness will rival those of the "Knight of La
Mancha.’’ Ho didn’t vote!!! May bo
not! May be he was paired off!! But he
did vote on the resolution and was tho
•only so-called Democrat voting with tire
Republican party and antagonistically to
his friends and the interests of peace and
the South, and by this vote (which was
not "paired oft") tho advocates of tho
"Civil Rights” bill were enabled to force a
fin,.l vote upon the House and through it
a most iniquitous measure upon the stat
ute Ibook of the the country and upon
.the people. ’Tis a brilliant record indeed,
that could put to shame this charge, and
that can clear itself of direliction to duty.
Truly not all tho little ‘JEnterprises” ot
■Covington alter Covington by flaunting
their little sheet of buttle dire at those who
did sneer at Mr. Stephens could alter
their judgement or change the verdict of
an indignant and outraged people.
"They don’t scare worth a cent.” And
while the little Enterprise of Covington, in
proposing to take up the foils for Ste
phens may feel in his conceit that when
ho walks abrord "that with his head he
knocks out a star,” and in inflated vanity
would hush the utterance of a disappoint
ed and stricken State, he will find tluit tho
most dignified and important and per
haps only notice taken of his foolish at
tempt to condone Mr. Stephens will be
that which we have wasted time to give to
his puerile attempt. Ta-ta-a ! To-to-a !1!
Now if there is any “tirade of
abuse and low vulgarity against A.
H. Stephens” in tho foregoing, we
will stand convicted without benefit
of clergy, before the intelligent peo •
pic and press of the State. The
trouble is, with the little Enterprise,
of Covington, that \vc have told a
simple truth with reference to its
idol, now broken and shattered be
fore the people of the State and of
the world. Unable to gather up
the fragments and remould tho sta-
tue, it stings and bites without rea
son or diroctiogjn its impotent rage.
"The further trouble too, is that hav
ing lost all discretion (and con
science if it ever existed) it mistakes
and mistakes most fearfully.
Mistake number one—“we must
enter a protest against his (Grubb’s)
abuse of Covington and its citizens. ’ ’
See article quoted above, that that
is a mistake. Wc never abused
Covington or its citizens. Mistake
number two —“his little dirty Ga
ze tie.” See all previous numbers of
the Ga: n rii that that is a mistake.
Mistake number three—“lt is a
remarkable fact that of the nine pa
pers published in Mr. Stephens own
listrict not on< J then: ha ntt 'rod
a single word against Lim, but on
the contrary have upheld and sup
ported him.” Bee Sandersville J/< r
ahl that that is a mistake.
Mistake number four —“Mr. Ste
phens is accused of favoring Grant
and the radical party in their un-.
•institutional and flagrant usurpa
tions in Louisiana. This accusition
is baseless.” Bee Mr. Stephens re
cord in the last Congress that that
is a mistake. And just in this con
nection we venture to predict that
Grant and Stephens will be the
third term ticket in 187(>. It has
been on the tapis for a good long
time and the people of Georgia and
the South are not such fools as not
to see it.
Now finally as to the Enterprise's
charge against “editor Grubb” of
being “the champion blackguard,”
etc. Tho article in the Gazette is
before our readers entire. The
lovely comments of the Enterprise
resound as follows, “Dogs some
times bay the moon” i. e. Grubb. “An
example of pusillanimity and vul
garity of conception, (Grubb’s arti
cle. ) “Exceedingly bad English and
total lack of sense vide same, “the
personal flings that this fellow Grubb
lie., vide same, “leave him as we
found him (A e. Grubb) a dunce.”
Now we leave our article and the
above extracts to the public to de
termine notoniy wlio is “tho champ
ion blackguard” but also who is the
champion dunce and mistakist.
These doughty editors also who
never told a mistake with their little
hatchet, also apprehend “that if the
scrihbliugs of this fellow arc suited
to tho tastes and capacity -of the
people of Darien, we must conclude
that that town and vacinity is emi
nently missionary ground and we
truly find tho “Greeks at our doors.’
It seems from tho above that Edi
tor Bebce has actually heard of the
Greeks. But he also seems to re
gard them with a vague apprehen
sion, not realizing that the classic
culture of those anceints. if brought
in actual contact might mitigate a
little of his modern vulgarity and
barbarism. But how can we speak
more of mistakes, how cun we do
otherwise than cover with the man
tle -of charity any little vulgar asper
ities when we find tho Washingto
nian hatchet gleaming brightly once
more with this final and conclusive
statement, that Mr. Stephens is “un
swayed by ambition, undazzled by
high public honors or the pride jof
place,” and that “the gravest charge
that we have seen preferred
against Mr. Stephens is that lie
thought it politic to remain silent
upon the great questions which so
lately agitated the country.” Broth
er Beebe let us pray.
ONE YEAE AGO.
Just one year ago to-day the first
issue of the Darien Timber Gazette
made its appearance, therefore, the
present number should have begun
the second volume, but the recent
tire disappointed our fondest hopes
in this particular, hence the second
volume will begin on the 22nd of
next month. It has been our aim
and earnest desire to make the Ga
zette a welcome visitor to every
subscriber who has kindly assisted
us, as well as to attract the atten
tion of all those not in any way in
terested in our success or the ad
vancement of our city To some ex
tent we are gratified with the result
of our efforts, but there is yet much
to do on our part to place the Ga
zette in that niche of prominence,
which it is our wish it should occu
py. Within a few moulds we will
enlarge our paper and make other
improvements necessary for our fu
ture promotion, at the same time
endeavoring to make this sheet
more acceptable to the public,
hence, wo trust that each of our
subscribers will give us a helping
hand in increasing our circulation,
and thus assist in establishing a
paper in Darien, which will not on
ly be an ornament to the city, but
one, that at all times can and will
be the champion of Darien’s inter
est and progress.

the people of Atlanta prefer Gov.

bursements of tho Atlanta Post Of

were over $90,000, instead of
$00,0(70.
Tho Atlanta Herald says: A cor
respondent informs us, apparently
with some trepidation, that he be
lieves in the rumor that Cherokee
Georgia is going to furnish an inde

He says that he heard a prominent
Republican in Haralson county say,
the other day, that the Republicans
were certain to put a man through
in tho next Gubernatorial race,
against - tho regular Democratic
nominee, and that Felton was the
man of his choice. We havn’t the
slightest bit of uneasiness about
this matter. Mr. Felton said to
the editor of this paper, last fall,
that he would not run for Governor
against a convention. We do not
believe he can be counted on tt car
ry the flag of the free-lancers in the
coming campaign. We shall except
to see him in the ranks of the faith
ful. He is not the man they are
looking for. He couldn’t whip the
race, if he were to try it.
The Atlanta Herald says: We
doubt if there has ever been apolit
ical fight in Georgia over which there
was so much excitement as the one
now waging in Gainesville. The
State of Georgia actually stands a
tip-toe with excitement. There is
hardly a town in the State from
which telegrams Lav*? not been re
ceived asking for the result. Mes
sages pour in every hour asking for
the news. The Herald office is
crowded all day long, and dispatch
es are read with feverish anxiety.
It is felt everywhere that the great
est mind in Georgia is about to be
ruled out of the public service at a
time when its powers are needed
most eminently. The twenty
eight men that are for Mr. Hill rep
resent a majority of the Democrats
of the district, and we believe that
they should stick till the fourth of
May, if necessary, before they will
surrender. The constituencies of
these delegates will sustain them
in this action, and will repremand
them for anything less; and the
State of Georgia is standing at thier
back.
GLOEIOUS OLD CONNECTICUT.
TLc overwhelming defeat of the
Grant party in Connecticut on
Monday has sent a thrill of joy to
every lever of his country. It was
fought on national grounds, the re
publicans defending Louisiana
frauds, congressional grabs, and all
the terrible corruptions of Grant’s
administration. Democrats met
thier enemies openly and fairly, and
demonstrated the welcome fact that
the people are everywhere resolved
to put aside the false doctrines of
an incapable and unsafe Adminis
tration as the centeunary of Nation
al Independence draws near, and to
turn again to the teaching of the
fathers and founders of our freedom
for inspiration in the guidance of
public affairs. In no canvass has
the issue been more clearly stated
or more boldly accepted. The en
dorsement of Grant was made tl*e
test of Republicanism. “One Hun
dred Gun Greene” who fully en
drosed Grant was defeated and
Gov. Ingersoll re-elected by near
10,000 plurality over Greene. Qcn.
Hawley, one of Grant’s right-hand
men, was fairly defeated and George
M. Landers, a square and smart
Democrat, elected to Congress, to
gether with Judge Phelps and Mr.
Barnum democrats; and Stark
weather, republican, was'elected by
the skin of his teeth. Both Senate
and House are largly democratic.
The Connecticut Democracy may
well regard this triumph as glory
enough for one day. It is the re
sponse of the people of that State
to the infamous policy of Grant’s
Administration, ancl the corrupt
and oppressive legislation of the
last session of congress. It is a
National question, which has now
been finally settled; a question that
has forced honest Republicans to
unite with the Democrats in rebu
king and repudiating an Adnrii
istratiou no longer to be tolera

the original cost of which was $450,-

gradually adopting the tenant sv -

as he needs. Six overseers super

the practice of the plantations on

each head of a family $3 a year
whether he is sick or not; and time,
by taxing each man lightly, it is
made burdensome on none. He is
a good physician, and says that it is
the healthiest country he ever saw.

Popping the Question.— Half a
century ago and more, it was the
fashion for a suitor to go down on
his knees to a lady, when he asked
to become his wife, which with very
stout gentlemen, was an uncomfor
table proceeding. The way in
which Daniel Webster proposed to
Miss Fletcher was more modern,
being at the same time neat and po
etic. Like many other lovers, he
was cauglit holding a skein of
thread or wool which the lady had
been unraveling. Grade said he
(fancy Daniel Webster saying “Gra
de”), “w- have untying knots. Let
us see if we - cannot tie one which
will not untie for lifetime.” With
a piece of tape he fashioned half a
true lover’s knot. Miss Fletcher
perfected it, and a kiss put the seal
to the symbolical bargain. Richard
Steele wrote to the lady of his heart:
“Dear Mrs. Scurloek (there were no
Misses in those days), I am tired of
calling you by that name, therefore
say a day when you will take that
of madtime, vour devoted, humble
servant, Richard Steple.” She fix
ed the day accordingly and Steeled
her name instead of her heart to the
suitor.
The expanded loans of the
banks of New York, Boston and
Pliiladelplia, show that business
men are so far iu debt that when
the revival comes, if it ever does,
they will have to go into open mar
ket—which will produce high rates
and a dangerous stringency. It is
suggested that those who are
iu debt, and those who may require
money by and by had. better begin
to husband their resources.

fortunately tbe discovery was male beforo the

quite an old one and the shingles-with which it is
covered are almost as combustible as gun-powder.
Would it not bo '.veil fur the owners of the build
ing to take some precautionary steps for the pro

gest to tiie County Commissioners the propriety
of obtaining an order at tbe next term of the
Court either for the removal of the records to
seme building in which they would be more safe,
or for tho purchase of a fire-proof safe, in which
to deposit them. Many of tho records date back
to a former century, and their loss would be incal

ed. The Loo will not come. Tho hand of the
Central Railroad has turned her to other ports—
but hold ! there are other steamships than the

will ru. u visit regularly the matchless aud mag
nificent harbor of Brunswick, for the purpose ol
bringing goods for the merchants of our city and
