Eoenezer Spinks, in New Or leans, BY R. J. G. Once on .1 time, there lived in the mountains of East Tennessee, a young man by the name of Ebert ezer Spinks, lie was a stout, hearty, hale looking fellow, about twenty-one yogi’s •hi; and weighed precisely One Hundred and seventy-five pounds. lie had no beard on his lace, and looked tender and simple, as an untutored urchin, ot less than ten summers. Ilis education was very limited, and he was the very personification of everything that was awkward and unbecoming; and when excited, a little inclined to talk through his nose, with a slight impediment in his speech, which often made him the butt of ridicule, among his most inti mate acquaintances. -It used to be the custom in those days, before Railroad communication was had through East Tennessee, to ship produce from the upper counties, of that fertile section, to Chattanooga: there the the loading was either sold out to the highest bidder at the wharf, or-stored away to be sold on commis sion ; and the boats disposed of on the best possible terms, to speculators— taken over the mussel shoals—loaded with cotton on the Mississippi River, shipped from thence to the city of New Orleans. It so happened that Ebeuezer was in Chattanooga, on one of those occa sions when a large number of boats, (commonly called lighters) were to be transferred over the shoals, and taken directly from thence to New Orleans, but not until freighted with cotton cn the Mississippi. Ilauds being scarce and wages pretty fair, our young mountain friend, concluded at once, to make the trip. Early on the morning, everything bcihgin readiness, the boats were loosed from their moorings, and glided out into the beautiful waters of the majestic Tennessee River. Many interesting and laughable scenes oc. curred on the way, which I will not undertake to relate in this brief his tory, but simply state one y>r two of the most prominent and amusing inci dents. CARROLLTON, GEORGIA, FRIDAY MORNING, SEPTEMBER 13, 1872. About equi distant between Mem phis and New Orleans, (at IPs landing) the wind became so high and bolster uns, that it was impossible to run the boats, and consequently they Mere safely and substantially anchored to some of those large trees, that now and then, line the banks of the mighty, rolling Mississippi. The Captain of the crew, (who by the by, was a jolly, goodnatured, fuu loving-soul, as ever danced all night at a regular Tennesseee ho-down ; and as fond of good eating, as a French man is of rat or frog soup, was always on the qui vive, tor a nice meal, and never failed to do ample justice to the good things set before him,) proposed to the “Boys,” that they would go out about one half mile from said Landing, to a splendid Country -inn, wherevery thing was done up in bon ton style. So accordingly they all set out in high glee for the aforesaid tav ern, and in a short time were pleas aully ensconced, in comfortable and elegant quarters ; awaiting the sump tuous entertainment, that was beiim prepared by the kind hostess of the House. While thus indulging in their anti cipations of the g<cod things coming, and what a delightful time they would have over buiscuit, coffee and fried chicken, up rode, some half dozen, elegantly dressed and intelligent look ing gentlemen, and called for dinner ; and of course, were received with that kindness and hospitality that used to (in old times) characterise, the re ception of travelers, at a well regular ted country inn. The party above referred to, turned out to be a number of lawyers, in company with a circuit Judge, on their way to attend court, in an adjacent county. It was not long until dinner was anouueed and a magniffieent affair it was, sufficient to have gratified the most capricious and fastidious taste. ‘A large and elegant pudding graced the table, together, with a bowl of rich and luscious looking, dip. It so happened that Ebenezor took his seat near this tempting bowl, and before the land-lady, had passed coffee half way I’round the table, “ Our brave mountaineer,” had appropriated said bowl of dip, to his own proper bene (it and behoof. The good land-lady, was about to iuterupt him, when thqCapt. gave her a significant wink and nod of the head, to let • him proceed. Here it was almost impossible tor the company to control their risible functions—Ebe uezer colored up—and seemed con siderably ernbarassed, but still contin ued to gulp down, with great gusto, the spijy unction. After while, the bottom of the bowl made its appear ance, and yet, he was not satisfied— straightening himself up in his chair, with an air of complacency, rarely ex, hibited upon such occasions, passed his bowl, with these emphatic words, “Madam! I’ll thank you for about a half bowl, but uot quite so sweet if you please! ” Every body present lost self-control, and vociferousTshouts and laughter, ‘had the pro eminence, over eating good manners and everything else. — That was one pudding that was never dipped! Bright and early next morning the boats were floating on the tranquil bosom of the mighty father of waters; and many a hearty laugh the “ Boys," had over Ebenezer, and his mammoth bowl of dip ; they always accused the captain of prompting our young hero on this occasion, as lie was seated next to him at the table, and was seen to give him a gentle hunch, just before he committed the tatal blunder. But the Capt. always denied the charge, saving that Ebenezer was of age, and \ acted for himself. A few more gentle days, and rolling suns ; and the boats were sateiy an chored at the great city of New Or leans, and our “ dip loving soul," was filled with wonder and amazement, beyond description. Next morning he was up in time to enjoy the pure and healthful atmostphere, at the first glimpses of morning light ; and being naturally fond of a good dram , started off in quest of the same. He had not proceeded far until he discovered over the door of a neat and well finished establishment, (written in large and legible letters,) “ Our Fashionable Saloon.” he paused for a moment, and then in his rude, rustic, mountain hoosier-stvle, entered the grocery. It so happened that the proprietor was absent, at his breakfast, and had left the house in charge of a large pet monkey, lie ha-d trained for that ex press purpose. For the amusement of his customers and othors, lie had cut a small hole in the counter, just over the money box, had taught this saga cious animal, when ever any one threw down change upon said couuter, to immediately grab the same and draw it over the hole, and clink it went into the money drawer. Now be it understood that Ebetiezer did not know that there was such an animal in existence as a monkey. When he entered said grocery, the first object that caught his gaze was this hairy old gentleman, sitting upon the counter, and looking as solemn and dignified, as the chief J of a regu lar post-mortem examination. Ebe nezer, greeted him with the usual sal utation of good morning sir! but no response came from the mute indie id ual on the counter—he waited awhile and then threw down a silver half dol lar, and exclaiming in rather an angry tone, I want the worth of that in gen uine Tennessee corn whisky! aud quick at that sir ! No sooner had the money struck the counter, than into the money drawer it went, and the monkey assumed his former attitude, looking as stern and inflexible as a monument, in a turned out grave yard. Ebonezer stood motionless for a few moments, as though cogitating in his mind wliat to do, and then in a fit of desperation, sprang at the old gentle man, (as he called him,) swearing at the top of his voice, his name was Ebenezer Spink, that he was from Fentriss County, Tennessee, that his dady was a boss, and his mammy as good a woman as ever wrapped up in that much calico! and* if he didn’t •give him back his fifty cents, or the worth of it in something to drink, he’ll be d—lied if lie dident l'an-out the whole “Sheragin.” The grocery-keeper, had heard the interruption, and hastened to the scene of the conflict, just in time to save the hide of his faithful servant. Halloo! halloo! ! what’s the matter here, cried the rum seller. Oh, nothing exclaim ed the Ebenezer, cepi this infernal old rascal lias got my money, and refuses to give it back, or its equivalent in something to drink, and I just thought I’d straighten the “ old cuss’ out a link or two ! Here the grocery keeoer, looked into the drawer, and saw that the change was alLright, and concluded that he would humor the joke, by apologizing to this young ‘mountain sprout,” so accordingly, lie commenced,by saying there \vas*no use in paying any attention to that old gentleman over there in the corner- O that he was in his dotage and quite childish and worse than all, had entirely lost his hearing. This seemed to pacify Ebenezer at once and he was in a full flow of spirits, in less time, than you could say, “ Jack Robison,” with your mouth open. After he had satisfied his thirst for the ardent , and M'as about delivering his parting bene diction, he turned ’round to the 'pro prietor of the establishment, (with eyes all bright, and .a face radiant with joy,) and thus addressed him: “1 am pleased with the M ay you have Heated me, and I believe you are a strait forward honest, clever fellow-I expect to remain in the city for several days, and during my stay, I expect to patronize you, and that liberally too, but as for that old gentleman over there (pointing to the monkey in the corner,) that I take to be your father, I consider him a d—n old scoundrel!" The feelings of the Grocery keeper, on this occasion, can be belter imagined, than described. Nashville Fail, This Association lias issued the Premium List of its Fair, to commence at Nashville on the the 7th day of October next. Fifty thousand dollars are offered as premiums. Os this amount §6OOO are offered as premiums on horse racing of various kinds. On the other hand, but §2do are offered as premiums for cattle of all ages and breeds ; §6O for sheep of all kinds ; and §7O for Logs of all kinds. This disproportion is to be regret ted. The racing will attract a great crowd. The Association will proba bly make money. But will it benefit the agriculture of Tennessee? Hardly. Will it improve the morals of the visitors ? Hardly. The premiums for machinery are varied, and some of them liberal ; but it is to be feared that the good which may be done this way may be over balanced by the evils necessarily attendant upon horse racing. The regular turf is preferable to this kind of horse-racing. The latter is whipping an unmentionable person around, tire stump. When a person twists or dodges in the gratifications O o of a propensity or enjoyment of a pleasure, there is involved a harmful loss of self-respect. Ostensibly, people go to the Fair, but really to-the horse race. The same persons would not become members of a Jockey Club. They would be less injured in so doing. At all events, concealment or equivo cation would not be added to the enjoyment of a pleasure of at least doubtful rectitude. The race-track and the agricultural fair are two different things and should be kept separate. The union damages both. H. General John B. Gordon. A Strong, lkdd, Able and Unanswer able Plea for Democratic Sup port of (1 reelcij. “ Whoever would Restore the Consti tution is for Your J lights.' “ I Love Liberty! 1 Jfale Tyranny! I Shull Strike icith Anbody for the Former ! I Shall Strike with Anybody to Put Down the Latter ! ” Fellow-Citizens: — There are para doxes in politics, as well as in all things else, M'hich are subjects of human reason. There are political propcsi tions which seem at first view the es sence of absurdity, arid yet M'hich when M’oiked out to their legitimate results, prove to be the very essence 'of wisdom. And in the history of all political affairs M’ith which I have any acquaintance, I know of no more ILIA'SIRIOL S PA RAr>OX than the one which confronts ns face to face at this hour. I know of no seemingly—at first view, seemingly— greater absurdity than that the Democratic party should propose to establish Democratic principles by the programme M-e are here to-night to consider. Yet rs this programme be in truth an absurd one, T stand before you convicted as an abettor of that absurdity. I claim to stand here AS A DEMOCRAT, and a Southern Democrat, to take counsel M’ith Democrats, in order to make practical the Democrats’ idea of government-vet to discuss the strange iD J O position of attempting to secure this ideal government, by elevating to the head of that government a lifelong enemy of the Democracy. Now I have stated the proposition thus broadly, squarely and bluntly, to meet it. and discuss it, and not to dodge it. I propose, in this disscussion to-night, to sound no uncertain note I trust I shall blink at no issue. J shalhcertainly indulge in no spirit of apology. In all I have to say I propose to recognize the tact THAT HORACE GREELEY IS JEST WHAT HE CLAIMS TO LE—-A KEPL'IILICAN, notwithstanding Cincinnati or Balti more. And yet I believe that all Southern Democrats can support him as a Republian without lowering their banners or staining their honors, and without any«! andonment ofpri nciple. In the effort to shoM r this I shall sail, as hinted above, under no false colors. I shall not pretend that it is an agreeable thing to vote for Horace Greeley. I shall not attempt to disguise the fact that if my individual impulses had guided me without any reference to consequences, I should have preferred a Democratic nomina tion on a Democratic platform—a Democratic fight, even with defeat ; but I could not claim that that would be wisdom or statesmanship. I shall not disguise the fact that now, deep doM’n in my heart, I find a strong sympathy with those honest straight Democrats, .who as yet have been un able to make up their minds to vote at all. Ido not mean with those Mho propose TO DIVIDE THE SOUTHERN PEOPLE, but with those who cannot vote at all. And now if because of these impulses and'these sympathies and the hope of establishing Bourbon principles by voting for Greeley to defeat the Radi cals, I am to be classed as a Bourbon, I must plead guilty to the soft im peachment. And as I have come to the confes sional, I had as well make a clean breast oi it and say that if a diagnosis of my political health were made to night my condition could not be bet ter described than by the use of the language so common among us upon the happening of that most interesting of events in our families. He!d tell you that I am about “as well as could be expected under the circumstances.” REPUBLICANISM IN GEORGIA. The truth is it is not very easy for a Democrat, aud especially a Georgia Democrat, to vote for a Republican— even for a Liberal Republican—and our Northern friends must excuse us if we can have no very enthusiastic relish for this thing. They must remember that the Republicanism our eyes have been accustomed to in Georgia has not been liberal in a way to excite our admiration or our confidence. It has been liberal it is true—liberal in the use of registration laws by which to vote its own min ions and exclude honest men who were entitled to the franchise. It has been liberal in its manipulation of ballot boxes for its own purposes It has been liberal in its use of the bayonet at the polls. It has been liberal in election laws, for the arrest and trial and imprisonment of honest men who would preserve the purity of thp ballot by the the exercise of the sacred right of challenge. It has been liberal with the States credit. I It has been liberal, if I am correctly , informed, in its appropriation of the public school funds. It has, in n word, with a liberality M’hich would really be sublime if it were hot in fa. movts, appropriated our property, squandered our money, stolen otq bonds, and trampled upon our rigbt s | THE GREELEY REPUBLICANS OF GEORGIA. Os course I mean no discourtesy to tbe men M'ho in Georgia, with a commendable self respect aud a proper regard tor honesty have come out from | among the plunderers and now propose to unite in the effort to drive from the Federal government the commanders of those foragers, Mho have robbed Georgia and still riot in the ruin of Mister States. 1 am glad ! they have abandoned the decaying j carcass. I only mean to sav by all this that Republicanism has never been and is not likely to become a verv sweet smelling savor in Georgia nostrils. I mean only to show that the Georgia Democrat who votes for any sort of a Republican, must do so at no small cost of personal comfort; and it Mould be a happy hour for me if 1 could persuade mysidLthat to act as our “ straight,” friends propose to act —not t-o vote at all -was consistent with my obligati on as a citizen and freeman. But as I cannot do this I feel it to be my duty to vote, and I propose now to give some of the reasons which impel me to VOTE FOR HORACE GREELEY AND GRAY/. BROWN ! 1 set out with the proposition that Greeley or Grant will certainly be the next President of the United States. No sane man with any regard udiat ever for candor M ill deny this. A\ e could not prevent this if every man in Georgia and in the South were to vote for a third candidate. Whatever therefore aids Greeley hurts Grant, and vice versa. No doubt about this. Now if there be no choice between t’.em—as tvils, if you please—then it’s right not to vote. Then no Southern man ought to vote. If, however, there be any choice, we are bound to make the selection and attempt sue , cess. / OUR SOUTHERN - SISTER STATES' APPEAR TO US. First, then, T set out with the declaration that if these two candi dates before the country were upon the same platform of principles, with the same surroundings and promises, there is a consideration which would still impel me to vote for Greeley. It is this: Our sister States South Carolina, Mississppi, Louisiana, Arkansas and Texas, believe we can aid them by electing Greeley. Georgia, in the Convention at Baltimore refused his platform—they took him and his platform. And however much we may differ with them, I am not going to refuse the aid which they imagine we can give. They are our brothers, they are bone of our bone, and flesh of our Ik; h. They are bound to us by stronger ties than those of mere consanguinity. We are linked to them -heart to hearl-by that strongest of all bonds, the bond of a common sorrow, and an immortal sympathy. And although we have-weathered the storm, and now sail into port with the pirate-crew thrown overboard, and our tried, trusted pilot, James M. Smith at the helm, I do not propose in the great joy of our deliverance to forget our comrades who are still outside. They are still in the midst of the breakers—the roar of the reef is around them-the clouds roll heavily above them—the tempest still sweeps them away— yet with canvas all rent and masts all riven, they refuse to lower their flag before the ■ Radical storm. Let us not stand idly by, coldly debating with them as to whether they are or are not mistaken in the belief we can give relief. Let us fly at their call with all the life boats that we can command. Aye, but say some men that’s an appeal to the heart andnot to reason. So it is. But when neither reason nor duty' dictates a different course, I am ready to follow the lead ol an impulse inspired by so generous a thought. * I repeat, therefore, if there were no other reasons for voting for Greeley, I would do so because our suffering kindred ask it of us. THE TWO NOMINATISG CONVENTIONS CONTRASTED. But there are other considerations which have had their influence with me. One is the concomitants or col laterals of the nominations of these two tickets. At Baltimore was assem bled the great Democratic party of the country, which had survived the conflicts, foreign and domestic, for nearly sixty years, and which, to say the least of it, numbered in ranks many of the truest and ablest defend ers of liberty this country has ever produced. They were there assem bled beneath the motto of “Peace and good Will among the People. After the nomination the candidate was presented, a life-size picture, a plain civilian standing upon the steps of the capitol, an emblem of ihe sum premacy of the civil over the military law, while from horn and pipe and drum came alternately “ Yankee Doodle,” the “Bonnie Blue Flag,” and our soul-stirring “Dixie. ’ At Pniladelphia were assembled the Radical party of the North, the party of destruction, the murderers of the Constitution, with the pale rene gades and carpet baggers of the South while General Grant, the nominee, was presented as on horseback. A PANOPLIED SOLDIER, in all the trappings of war—fit emblem of the subordination ot the eri il to the military power, and of the reign ot the last four years and the years to come, under him—and from horn and pipe and drum, from brazen dusky throats, rolled to the mad music of on Second l*ctje.
