Pope once jwrole an ‘‘Universal I raver, which was suited to all creeds and all classs. The following, which we shall dub r lhe Publisher’s Prayer, has almost as wide spread and univer sal an application, and conies home most- feelingly to our business and bosoms, as we trust it may to those of our penitents and patrons. A pub lisher, whose patience has been ex hausled, thus parodies a passage from Longfellow's “Hiawatha Should you ask us why this dunning, Wby tlio-e sad complaintg and niurmarg, Murmurs loud about delinquent Who have lead the paper weekly, Read what they nave never paid for, Rea l with pleasure and with profit, Head of church affairs and prospects, Head of news, both home and foreign, Read the essays and the poems, Full of wisdom and instructions; Head the table and the markets, Carefully corrected weekly— Should you ask us whv’this dunning, We should answer, we should tell you, From the printer, from tlie mailer, From the kind old paper maker, From the landlord, from the currier, From the inm who taxes letters W ith a stamp from Uncle Samuel— Uncle Sam the rowdies call him ; From them all there comes a message, “Please to pay us what you owe us,’" Would you lift a burden front ns? Would you drive a spectre from you ? Would you fasten pleasant slumber? Would you have a quiet conscience; Woi*ld you read a paper paid for ? Send us us money, Send us money—send us money : Send the money that you owe ns. From the Richmond Dispatch. But an cip a lion Proclamation. The Galaxy for December contains a paper written by Mr. Gideon Wel les, which gives the history of Lin coln’s Emancipation Proclamation.— Mr. Welles was Mr. Lincoln’s Secre* tary of the Navy, and speaks from personal knowledge. “The contrabands” were, from the j beginning of the war, a source of great I trouble to the truly loyal. By the ! Constitution, properly in slaves was j fully guaranteed, and United States | laws required the Federal authorities | to re.no; eto their owners all fngitiv* i no'-roes. As the war was waged by !.. . r : the \\ammgton functionaries wild | loud professions to maintain and pre * . . >erve the Constitution, any mterfer ! once with the property in, or the sta tus of, the negro, would be a flat and patent contradiction of the avowed objects of the war Mirny of the Fed oral Generals deemed it their duty to respect the Constitution and laws, and they did so by sending back to their masters the slaves that fled to their camps. But, this proceeding excited violent protestations from the fanatics. “The orders (says Mr. Wells) of such officers as General McClellan, Halleek Dick and others, prohibiting the fugi tives from coming within the army lines, caused great dissatisfaction at the North, without appeasing any at the South.” Stimulated by this fa natic feeling, General Hunter took it upon himself to proclaim the teedom of the slaves in South Carolina, Geor giu and Florida. President Lincoln promptly (18th May, 1862) issue 1 a counter proclamation, annulling that of Hunter, saying that the question of freeing the slaves “I reserve to myself and cannot feel justified in leaving to the decision of Commanders in the field.” Lincoln, who had scruples ot con science, appreciated the difficulties of his position. He had taken nu oath to defend the Union. The oath he had taken was simply “to protect, pre serve and defend the Constitution of the United States.” To his plain, ! practical mind, it was rather an odd way of preserving the constitution, by disregarding its provisions and tramp ling it under foot. He sought to get around the difficulty by attempting to get tire border States, Maryland, Ken lucky and Missouri, to decree email cipation of their slaves for which the government should pay them. For he again and again confessed that no authority but that of the States could touch the subject. A part of his scheme was the exportation of the negroes ; for he was thoroughly con vinced that the two races, both free, “could not dwell together in unity, and as equals, in their social relations. There was he thought, a natural an tagonism between the whites and blacks, which could not and ought not to be overcome, lie therefore, at an early period of his administration, some time before his emancipation proclamation was projected, devised plans for the deportation and ooloniz ing of the colored population. In these various projects of deportotiou and colonization, he was earnestly sus tained by the Attorneys General, Bates j the Postmaster General, Mr. Blair, j and the Secretary of the Interior, Mr. Caleb Smith.” Even when his einan- 1 CARROLLTON, GEORGIA. FRIDAY MORNING, DECEMBER 0, 1872. | cipation proclamation was issued, de : portation continued to be a favorite j idea with bun, and he never abandon- I ed it. As to the motive which prompted his emancipation proclamation, we are told by Mr. Welles, “lie was goveru- I ed not by sympathy for the slaves, but j by a sense of duty, and the obligation which, as chief magistrate, he owed to his country. It was not until after McClellans’ failure qn the Peninsula that Mr. Lin coln recognized the necessity of abol i. . J | ltion to save the Government, lleeame i to Harrison’s landing to visit General McClellan and see for himself the con dition ot the army. The uext Sunday after his return, on his way to a fus neral with Mr. Welles and Mr. Sew ar.] in the carriage, lie,' for the first time, indicated his purpose to proclaim emancipation. “He saw no escape.” And, in the language of Mr. Welles, this humiliating confession was extol led from his lips : “We must free the slaves or be our selves subdued.” Tliat is, the great Federal authori ty, backed by twenty-five millions, would be subdued by the six millions rebels, it they did not bring the ne groes to their aid ! We suppose, us Mr A elles records it, this must be the verdict of history. The quibble by which he got rid of his oath “to protect, preserve and de fend the Constitution” is thus given : “If there was no constitutional au ♦ thority in the Goverment to emanci pate the slaves, neither was there any authority, specified or reserved, for the slaveholders to resist the Govern ment or secede from it. (?) They could not at the same time throw off the Constitution and invoke its aid— Having made war upon the Govern meat, they were subject to the inei dents and calamities of war, and it was our duty to avail ourselves of ev ery necessary measure t.o maintain the L nion. If the rebels did not cease their war, they must take the conge quences of war. He dwelt earnestly on the gravity, importance and deli cacy of#he movement, which he had approached with reluctance, but he saw no evidence of a cessation of hos tilities ; said he had given the sub ject much thought and had about j come to the conclusion that it was a ! military necesity, absolutely essential j to the preservation of the Union. We ! must free the slaves or be ourselves subdued.” Having thus satisfied his conscience, that a wrong by the rebels justified him in violating his oath, he called a meeting of his Cabinet, Mr. Welles gives the following account of the proceedings: “ Early in August—-it bus been said on Saturday, and if so, it was, I think, the 2d of that month—the President called a special meeting of the Cabinet. The meeting was in the library of the Executive Mansion, and not in the Council Chamber, where the regular sessions were usual ly convened. All were present except Mr. Blair, who had gone to his coun try residence in Montgomery county. If I am not mistaken, Mr. Chase was also, from some cause, absent from the first meeting. The President stated that the object for which he had called us together was to submit the rough draft of a proclamation to emancipate, after a certain day, all slaves in the States which should then be in rebellion. There were, he re marked, differences in the Cabinet on the slavery question, and on emanci pation, but he invited afrec discussion on the important step he was about to take ; and to relieve each one from embarrassment, he wished it under* stood that the question was settled in his own mind ; that he had decreed emancipation in a certain contingency, and the responsibility of the measure was his ; but he desired to hear the views of his associates and receive any suggestions, pro or con, which they might make. He had, he said, dwelt much and long on the subject, and formed his own conclusions, and had mentioned the matter in confi dence to one or two of the members. Little was said by any one but the President. Mr. Bates expressed his very decided approval, tut wished de portation to be coupled with emanci pat ion. He was, it was well known, opposed to slavery. Though born in a slave State, and always residing in a slave State and among slaves, he nevertheless wished them free, and that the colored race should leave the country. It was impossible, he said for the two races to assimilate but by amalgamation, and they could not amalgamate without degradation and demoralization to the white i ace. The whites might be brought down, but the negroes could not be lifted to a •t) much higher plane than they now oc cupied. He bad been a close obser ver of the influence of slavery on the enterprise and welfare of the country through a long life, had deplored its | effects, and himself had given freedom to his owu slaves, and wished them and their fellows in Africa, or else where than in the United States. He was fully convinced that the two races could not live and thrive in social proximity. The result of any attempt to place them on terms of equality would be strife, contention, and a vicious population, asinMexico. The whites might be debased, but the blacks co dd not be elevated, even by the disgusting process of mixed breeds, which was repugnant to our ! nature and to our moral and better instincts. He therefore wished a : system of deportation to accompany ; any scheme of emancipation These : were also the President’s views. Mr Seward, without expressing an I opinion on the merits of the question, thought it would be well to postpone the whole subject to a more auspi cious period. If the proclamation were issued now, it would be received and considered as a despairing cry —a shriek from and for the Administration rather than freedom. The President instantly felt and appreciated the force and propriety of the suggestion. We had experienced serious disaters. Im portant results were in the immediate fut ure ; high hopes were entertained from army operations under Halleek and Pope, who had just taken the di rection of military affairs. The Presi dent at once closed -his portfolio and suspended his proclamation, and all further proceedings on the subject of emancipation. Ido not recollect that it was again alluded to in Cabinet until after the battle of Antietam, which took place on the 17th of Sep lember—six weeks later. As the disasters of the army under McClellan were not retrieved by Pope and Halleek, the subject was not re- ! considered until after the battle of Sharpsburg. when the preliminary proclamation was issued. On that occasion “he expressed the sense of! the responsibility he was taking, both j to himself and the country. It | had pressed him” —and well it might. ! It was the subversion of the Constitu tion. Mr. Welles calls it; “Ados potic act in the cause of the Union, and I may add, of freedom.” We realize to day the sort of freedom the j despotic act lias inaugurated. But j there was more in that act than any j other in our history. It was the first j act of confiscation of property —and j the evils thereof will be seen and felt ! for a thousand years. After the proclamation was issued, Mr. Lincoln was earnest in his efforts to inaugurate a scheme for deporting the negroes. He considered deporta* tion an integral part of his emancipa tion scheme, and he adhered to it till his death. This, however, failed, and it may be, to the injury ot both races. Says Mr. Welles: “ Following the preliminary prod a mation, and, as a part of the plan, was the question of deporting and colon izing the colored race. This was a part of the President’s scheme, and had occupied his mind some time be fore the project of emancipation was adopted, although the historians, bi ographers and commentators have made slight, if any allusion to it The President, however and a portion of his Cabinet considered them in separable, that deportation should accompany and be a part of the email cipation movement.” It will be a source of eternal regret that the author ot this great revolu tionary measure did not live to regu* late its results. Someone having asked Mrs. Stanton if she thought girls could stand the hard study of a college course, got this reply : “ I would like to see you take thirteen hundred youngmen and lace them up, and hang ten to twenty pounds weight of clothes on their wasts, perch them up on three inch heels, cover their heads with rip* pies, chignons, rats and mice, and stick ten thousand hair pins into their scalps ; if they can stand all this, they will stand a little Latin and Greek.’ Whereupon every Saturday remarks that “ When one wants to have a par ticularly neat thing said about women the most judicious way is to get a wo man to say it.” — .<?►«■ Homicide ix Haralson County A man by the name of Robinshaw was killed in Haralson county last Saturday mght by his brother-in-law Moore. The difficulty grew out of private affairs. Moore voluntarily sur rendered to the officers of justice, and is now in jail at Buchanan. —Home Cottier. There are said to be good rea sons for supposing that sentimental young ladies who write poems about, death and the grave have holes in their I stockings. j Bill Arp on Dife Insurance. “Bill Arp” has been “interviewed” by several life insurance agents and favors the public in his inimitable style with his experience : A friend (I suppose he was a friend) found me and wanted to see me par tikularly. He took me a little way back and handed me out some lit tle thumb papers, lull of figures, and said he wanted to insure my life.— That skeered me worse than anny thing, tor it looked like I was in dan* ger, and he had just found it out. I asked him if lie thought there would jbe a fight, lie explained things to me, and I felt relieved, and declined to insure for the present. You see I felt mighty well, und coulden’t see the necessity. At the next corner I met another friend, who seemed glad to see me exceedingly. lie held my hand in his several moments. lie axed me if my life was insured He said he was agent for the best company. He then ex plained tonne that I might die at any time ; that they didn’t undertake to keep a man from dying. So I de clined, but expressed my gratitude for his interest in my welfare, and pro mised to buy a policy as soon as I got right sick. Just as I left him I heard him call some pheller adurned phool. When I got to the hotel there was man waitin’ for mo on the same busi ness! lie talked to me about au hour on the uncertainty of life and the cer aii.ty of death. I thought he was at missionary. He seemed verymuch concerned about my wife and child ren, and once or twice wiped his eyes with a pocket handkerchief. I kuow cd he was a triend, aud told him I would reflect seriously about the mat ter. I believe that company is a pureh philanthropic institution and would lend a feller a few dollars if he was j suffering. I think I will try to bor row from their agent to-morrow. This | morning the first one come to see me : agm, and I konkluded I was looking j mity bad, and axed him to excuse me i if I was not feeling well. I went down to Dr. Alexander and got a dose of salts. I told him I was sick, and the reason why. lie told me all about about it, aud said there was about 100 of them fellers in town, and they bored a half inch at the first interview, and an inch at the second in the same hole, and so on till they got to the hollow, and the patients give in and took a policy. I don’t know about that, but I will say they are the friend best, most sympathizing, and kind hearted men I ever struck only I don’t like so much talk about coffins and graveyards. I don’t like the salts. Lincoln’s first stump speech.— This is Abraham Lincoln’s first stump speech. It was delivered at Papps ville, about eleven miles from Spring field. There had been au auction sale, after which there was a small : fight in which one of Mr, Lincoln’# | friends got the worst of it. Where* ! upon Abraham stepping into the i crowd, he shouldered them sternly ; away from his man, until he met a fellow who refused to fall back ; him he seized by the nape of the neck and the seat of his breeches and tossed him ten or twelve feet easily. After athis episode—as charcteristic of him as of the times—he mounted the plat form, and delivered, with awkward modesty, the following speech. : “Gentlemen and Fellow citizens, I pre same you all know who I am. I am humble Abraham Lincoln. I have been solicited by many of my friends to become a candidate for the Legis lature. My politics are short and : sweet, like the old woman’s dance.— . I am in favor of the eternal improve | ment system and a high protective I tariff’. These are my sentiments and j political principles. If elected I shall ; be thankful ; if not, it will be all the ; same.” -■»&»«. Know Yourself. —A better subject for young men to meditate upon was never written than the following by i Swift. “No man ever made au ill figure who understood his own talents, nor a urood one who mistook them.” Young men do not fail in pursuits in | life because they lack ability to sue* j eced, half, as often as from the neglect i to study the real calibre in their minds. | A modern capacity, industriously di j reeled, will accomplish more than a wrong application of the most brilliant qualifications. Study for yourselves. Aim to find out the actual talents you possess, and endeavor to make the best use of them, and you can hardly come short of making a good figure in the the world, aud what is more, being amongst those who live not in j vain,” A lady, who painted her face j asked Parsons how he thought she looked. “I can’t tell, madam,” he re-1 plied, “except you uncover vour j face.” How to Dwarf a Town. Horace Greeley presents the follow ing as a sure means of destroying the prosperity of tne most promising towu : “If you want to keep a town from thriving, don t put up any more build ings tUan you can conveniently occu py yourself, if you should accidentally have an empty building, and any one should want to rent it, a*k three times the value of it. Demand a shvlock price for every spot of ground that God has made you steward ship over. Turn a cold shoulder to every median ic and business man seeking a home with you. Look at every ne\V com er with a scowl. Run down the wojk ot every new workman. Go abroad for wares rather than deal with those who seek to do business in your midst. Fail to adver tise or in any way to support your home paper, so that people abroad may know whether any business is going on in that town or not. Wrap yourselves up within yourselves in a coat of impervious selfishness. There is no more effectual way to retard the growth ot a town than actions like those enmerated, and there are people in every town who are pursuing the same course every day ot their lives, and to whom the above remarks are respectfully offered for their considers tion. What a Boy Knows About Girl^- Girls are the most unaccountablest thing in the world—except women. Like the Ilea, when 3*oll have them they ain’t there. I can cipher clean over the improper fractions, and the teacher says Ido it first-rate ; but I can’t cipher out a girl, proper or im proper, and } r ou can’t either. The on ly rule in arithmetic that hits their case is the double rule of two. They I aro as full of old Nick as their skin ' can hold, and they would die if they | couldn't torment somebody. When the}* try to bo mean they arc as mean as pretty, though they ain’t as mean is they let on, except sometimes and are they a good* deal meaner. The only way to get along with a girl when she comes at you with her non sense, is to give it to her tit for tat, and that will fiummix her, and when you get a girl flummuxed she is as nice as anew pin. A girl can sow more wild oats in a da}*, than a boy can sow in a year, but girls get their wild oats sowed after a while, which toys never do, and they settle down as calm and placid as a mud puddle. But I like girls firts-rate, and guess the boys all do. I don’t care how many tricks the}* play on me—and they don’t care either. The hoitytoit yest girls in the world can’t always boil over like a glass of soda. By-aud by they will get into the traces with somebody they like, and pull as steady as au old stage horse. That is the beauty of them. So let them wave, I say, they pay for it some day, sewing on buttons, and trying to make a de cent man of the feller they have splic ed on to, and ten chances to one if they don’t get the worst of it. They Read, But Don’t Pay.— An exchange has the following : “It not unfrequently occurs, when persons aro asked if they will subscribe for a local newspaper, or if they * already take it, that they reply, “No, but neighbor B. takes it and I have the reading of it every week.” They are benefitted every week by the toils, perplexities, and expenditure:- of those who receive nothing from them iu return. To which the American Newspaper Reporter adds more at length: “ The above truth should he copied and re-copied in every country paper until the trouble is abated. The pub lisher of a newspaper, depending as he does, in a measure, upon Ids sub scription list for sapp >rt, naturally ex pects each family who desire, to read his paper to subscribe for it, if they can afford it. Subscribers themselves as well as publishers, find the news paper borrower a first class nuisance, for he often borrows it as the owner is about to read it, retains it at cer tain times when he misses it, aud too often if he returns it at all, the paper is in such a condition that no one of nice sensibilities would car© to read it. '< SST" Two gentlemen having a dis ference, one went to the other’s door and wrote “Scoundrel” upon it. The other called upon his neighbor, and was answered by a servant that his master was not at home. “No mat ter,” was the reply, “I only wished to , return his visit” as he le.l hie name at my door in the morning.” CeT* There are said to be 10,000 ; children in the street of New York j who live by begging.
