TWO “PROPHETS IN THEIR
OWN COUNTRY” APPRECIA
TED ABROAD.
It always affords us pride and
pleasure to chronicle the appreciation
which our distinguished fellow-citizens
receive outside of the limits of their
owe State, where they are loved and
honored as they deserve.
We, therefore, produce to-day the
high testimonials of admiration and
of eulogy, which two of Georgia’s
favorite sons have won from the jour
nals of Kentucky, for their ability and
and eloquence, as displaced at the
late Louisville Peace Jubilee.
When we name Benjamin Hill and
General Gordon, every ti ne hearted
Georgian will respond most cordially
to the tribute which our brethren of
Kentucky have paid to two of Geor
gia’s best kuown and lelovad states
men.
Of Mr. Hill the Louisville Courier-
Journal says:
The speech of the Hod. B. II. Hill,
delivered at the Court-house’ and re-
perted this morning in the Courier
Journal, is one of the most eloquent
and logical speeches of the canvass.
Mr. Hill’s proper field or labor lies in
the North. 5xC would make thous
ands of converts in Ohio, Indiana and
Pennsylvania, lie talks like a man;
a man of sense; like a patriot. No
Southern Statesman comprehends the
situation with more fullness and aceu
racy. * * * * Georgia ought
to be proud of hint. He is, with Gor
don, something more than an orna
ment—an implement of usefulness and
power.
And the Louisville Ledger adds
ils testimony thus:
It has seldom fallen to the let of a
stranger to make such an impression
upon a people as Mr. Hill has upon
the people of Louisville. His audi
ence yesterday was carried away with
enthusiasm at his burning eloquence.
It is said that few men have the pow
er such as he ha* to move the sympa
thies and work upon the feelings of
men. Men who have gioivn old in
their study of oiatory say that this
noble representative of Georgia man
hood and Georgia talent is one of the
most gifted and impiessivo speakers
that his age has produced.
And of General Gordon the Courier
Journal also says:
We thank the gallant and gifted
General Goidon, of Georgia, for the
way in which he disposed, in his
speech last Wednesday, of the pitiful
attempt of die stay-at-home Bourbons
disaffect former Confederate soldiers
on account of the clause in the Liber
al Democratic platform referring in
in terms of compliment to the Union
soldiers. Said General Gordon:
“Something has been said about
the plank in the platform about doing
honor to the Federal soldiers. I,
among others in the South, have
been taunted with it in Georgia by
some of my straight-out frieuds, who,
if my recollection serves me right,
were not very rebellious during the
war. They say my blood must have
curdled in my veins after consenting
to support a candidate standing upon
that platform, as I passed by the bat
tle-field of Virginia, where my com
rades lay buried. Now I have got
this to say about that: I am ready to
honor any man who battles in any
cause from a sense of duty. I am
ready that the North should pile to
the very clouds their monumental
blocks of granite to tbair brave sol
diers, and I claim that the higher
they pile them the greater tribute
they pay to the brave men who held
them in check for four years. I utter
a sentiment to-day which I would
gladly utter in Faneull Hall, Boston,
and my speech I know would find an
echo in the heart of Hancock and all
true mon who fought on the other
side.”
Gordon Save expression to the senti
ment of every true ex Confederate
soldier.
Listening to these plaudits of her
sons, Georgia may well quote the
mother of the Gracchi, and proudly
pointing to them say, “These are my
jewels!”
Orion Lodge. No. 8.
Bainbridge, Ga. Sept. 16th 1872.
Our brother, Richard Sims, whose mem
ory we have met to eomemmor&te, was per
haps the oldest member of this Lodge.
The honors that have been conferred upon
him by his brethren have only been limited
by the number they had at their disposal.—
He has been called to and filled ably and
acceptably all the offices of the Lodge, and
his administration of each has been marked
not more by his sense ef unswerving duty,
than by a uniform kindness, charity and ma
sonic love. When such an one is called from
onr midst, the void must necessarily be
keenly felt and we would put on record some
evidence of our appreciation and regard.—
Therefore,
Resolved, That by the death of onr broth
er, Richard Sms, this Lodge has lost one of
its main supports, and Masonry one of its
brightest lights.
Resolved, That we will ever cherish the
memory of onr departed brother, and would
put upon record the testimony of our high
appreciation of the able, impartial and con
siderate manner in which he discharged all
the high duties He was called upon by the
Lodge to perform.
Resolved, That we tender to the afflicted
family our sincere condolence, and would
point them to Him who can alone bind up
the wounded heart.
Resolved, That the members of this Lodge
wear the nsual badge of mourning for thirty
days, and that the Secretary furnish this
preamble and resolutions to the family of
our deceased brother, anH publish the same
in our city papers. IV. O. Flewing,

Cloud Chapter, No. 48.
BainbbIdge, Ga., Sept. 16.1872.
Whereas it has pleased an Allwise Providence to
remove by d< ath from onr midst, our worthy com
panion Bichard Sims, therefore
Resolved, That as a companion we loved him and
as an officer he has commanded onr sincerest ad
miration and respect.
Resolved, That *o his family we offer not only
our sympathies in their affliction, but would assure
them of onr most kindly offices.
Resolved, That the companions wear the usual
badge of mourniDg for thirty days, and a copy of
heir resolutions be furnished the family ot the de
ceased, and published in the city papers.

Thk Tmaoirf is not and w3) nevermore be
a party organ, but it is ardently enlisted in
tbe contest now waging for Civil Service Re
form and for Oae Presidential Term ad es
sential to that Reform. It accepts tbo Cincin
nati Platform as a terse and * forcible exposi
tion of the political right and wrong, the
needs and hopes of To-Day, and looks hope
fully to Universal Amnesty as essential to the'
restoration of a genuine fraternity between
North and South, and gf mutual Confidence
nnd good trill between Whiter and Black. It'
believes tbe People are preparing to break tbe
rusty shackles ol mere bygone partisanship,
and it hopes for a result next November which
will cbeer and strerigibcn tbe champions of'
Peace and Good Will. It will issue no cam
paign edition, but proffers to ail who believe
its further diffusion may serve tbe Good Cause'
its regular editions at the lowest possible
prices.
The virtual surrender by tbe Democratic
party of its hostility to Equal Rights regard.'
less of Color has divested our current politic!
of half their bygoua intensity. However par*
ties may henceforth rise or fall, R is elear that
the fundamental principles which have hither
to honorably distinguished tbe Republicans ard
henceforth to be regarded as praetieaUy accep
ted by the whole country. The right of
every man to bis own limbs and sinews—*
tbe equality of all citizens before tha law—
the inability of a State to enslave arty por
tion of ite people—the duty of the Union to
guarantee to eveiy citizen the full enjoy
ment of bi#libevty until be forfeits it by
crime—such are the broad and firm founda
tions of our National edifice; and palsid be
the hand which shall seek to displace them!
Thongh not yet twenty years old, the Re
publican parly has completed the noble
fabric of Emanicipation, and may fairly in
voke thereou the sternest jndgment of Maa
and the benignant smile of God,
Henceforth, the mission of onr Republic
is one of Peaceful Pi ogress. To protect
the weak and tbe humble from violence and
oppres-ion—to extend the boundaries and
diffuse the blessings ef Civilization—to stim
ulate Ingenuity to the production of nevt in
ventions for economizing Labor and thus en
larging Production—to draw nearer to each
other the producers of Food and of Fabrics,
of Grain > and of Metals, and thus enhance
the gains of Industry by reducing the cost
of transportation and exchanges between
farmers and artisans-^efich is tbe inspiring
task to which this Nation now addresses
itself, and by which it would fain contrib
ute to the progress, enlightenment, and hap
piness of our race. To this great and good
work, The Tribune contributes its zealous,
persistent efforts.
Agriculture will continue to be more es
pecially elucidated in its Weekly and Semi-
Weekly editions, to iChich some of the
ablest aiid most successful tillers of the soil
will steadily contribute, ffo farmer Who
sells $300 worth of produce per annum can
nfford to do Without our Market Reports, or
others equally lucid and comprehensive. If
he should read nothing else but What re
lates to his own calling and its rewards, we
belieVe that no farther who cab read tit All
can afford to do without such a journal as
Tiie Tribune. And We aspire to make it
equally valuable to those engaged in other
departments Of Productive Labor. We spend
more and more money on our columns each
year, as our countrymen’s generous patron
age enables uetodo; and weare resolved that
our issues of former yearn shall be exceeded
