THE STANDARD I EXPRESS 8. H. SMITH. & CO., Proprietor CiBTEKSVM^'Ci..JAKIim JX H7t ■ COTkS TiUt*^ The 1 louse of Representatives at Washington lias refused to instruct the committee to report favorably to wards refunding the cotton tax. The idea of passing this hill df simple Jus tice to our oppressed people, who have been fleeced on every hand, and are in great need of all that can l>e saved from the wreck of their for tunes, was enough so entitle it to dis favor at the North, but when it cams to disgorging the money mitfft the public crib, it was more thugHufii cient to kill it outright, although wrongfully and tyrannically taken from the pockets of our people. “J. N.,»» THE PHILOSOPHER. A few days ago, very much to oar gratification, a notable personage pre sented himsel# in our sanctum. For the life of us, we could not imagine who the stranger could be. His long elf like locks, piercing black eye, his tawny complexion, and perfectly pos manner, placed before us a l>eing unique in person and altogeth er sid generic. Was it Diogines from his tub, Achilles from his rout with Hector, Justinian with his “populous beard,” or the last representative of the aborigines? “I am called,” said he, brusquely, and with evident sat isfaction, “J. N., the Philosopher;” and so, without ceremony, in his own peculiar way, he began and kept up a rapid and very brilliant conversa tion, inducting us into the grand mystery of “lifting the veil,” “re moving the pressure,” and showing how he should take his time to make things more easy, from the “grand stand-points” and “out-posts” of phi losophy, which he alone, of all the continent, commands. He is in communication with ma ny distinguished gentlemen of the State, among whom he gratefully numbers the Hon. A. H. Stephens, a fellow philosopher and compatriot.— Satisfied that the South has been al together misunderstood in her late struggle, and a .“self martyr” to the philosophical idea, which he alone, of all the world, has maintained, he is determined to persist in his under taking until the “veil is lifted,” “the pressure removed,” and “things shall move easy.” Renowned as a philosopher and or ator, no less than a self martyr to great ideas, lie stands out in this stir ring age, a wonder and an admira tion. Here to-day, and there to morrow, and almost every where at once, we bid good cheer to “J. N.” the Philosopher. He will address our citizens on the 20th instant, at the City Hall. PLAYING CARDS IN PUBLIC PLACES. We are gliwl to see that the bill au thorizing the playing of cards in pub lic places, which had already passed the Senate, has been withdrawn. It uLja.iaupr .rotwjpw. rrrvn the balance, is only infinitestimally small, can not be accommodated in all their little innocent amusements, poor good natured fellows that they are; but when it is to be done at the expense of the good morals of the commonwealth, it is really asking a little too much. Let him drink his lager if he will! and sing his songs and crack his jokes, if he has any, and this we think is quite enough.— We congratulate the Legislature that a matter so promising of evil is thus quietly put at rest. A. H. STEPHENS. . This distinguished gentleman is the only candidate for Congress from tho Eighth District, all other aspi rants having voluntarily withdrawn in his favor. It is the place for Mr. Stephens, and, in our judgment, the particular theatre upon which he can appear with more credit to himself and service to the people, than any other. The great Commoner, is a ti tle which is perhaps justly his due, and his old district may well point to him with pride, as he shall stand once more in the halls of the Capitol, facile princeps. Would that in every instance, the real ability and worth of the State was sought out and put in office, especially in those public places, where our office holders are regarded as representative men. Our little Grady, of the Atlanta Herald, and Trammell, of the Car ters ville Standard & Express, are try ing to use sarcasm upon one another. They remind us of the little boy who drew the picture of a horse, end after looking at it some time, not being certain he had succeeded in his effort, wrote underneath it, “ This is a horse! y * So gentlemen, when you mean sar casm again, imitate the boy.—Mari etta Journal. The admissions to Henry Ward Bee cher’s church last year were one hun dred and ninety-seven. The whole present membership of the church is two thousand one hundred and eigh ty-three. Mr. Mcdanel’s apportionment bill may be analyzed thus: Counties which have two Represen tatives now reduced to one: Morgan, Columbia, Warren, Pulaski, Ran dolph, Lee. Counties having one Representative to which two are giv en: Walton, Jackson. Counties without representation, to which one Representative is given: Douglass, Dodge, McDuffie, Rockdale. A GOOD BILL. “ Be it enacted by the General As sembly of the State of Geoiyia, Thai the Judges of the Superior Courts of this State shall render judgment in all civil cases founded on contract, where there has been personal service, without the verdict of a jury, at the first term of the court to which the same may be returnable, wfcere no issueable defense is tied oa oath.” Reports conflict as to the Judge of the Supreme Court. Home are posi tive that J ustioe Montgomery will be reappointed. The pressure is strong m this brlfef, and It is toped the Governor, will yield. Others as sert that Robert Tripp, of Monroe, will be appointed on the Supreme bench. | GENERAL TAX LAW.

Jhonson, Judge of the Middle Circuit. Hon. G. D. Rice, Judge of the Western Circuit. Hon. A. H. Hansell, Judge of the Southern Circuit. Emory Speer, Solicitor General of the Western Circuit. P. B. Cabaniss, Solicitor General of Flint Circuit. Chas. J. Harris, Solicitor General of Macon Circuit. C. J. Welborn, Solicitor General of Blue Ridge Circuit.— Constitution. THE NEW SENATOR—GEN. GORDON Gen. John B. Gordon, after win ning for himself a splendid reputa tion as a patriot and soldier in the “Lost Cause,” and endearing him self to the people of the South by his devotion to their interest, through the trying ordeal that has succeeded the war, was, on the 22d inst-, elect ed by the Legislature of Georgia to the high position of United States Senator. This is but a just reward for his gallant services, and in many respects the honor could not have been more worthily bestowed. His well known patriotism, integrity and brilliant oratory are eminent qualifications, mivvuvt n IIVj W ‘pu/Vt av» ism, integrity and eloquence, adds a long life devoted to the science of po litics, and who, as a statesman, stands to-day without a peer on American soil. But, next to Mr. Stephens, we would have preferred Gen. Gordon; and, though he is want ing in political training and experi ence, we believe he will prove an able champion of Georgia and the South and make his influence felt in the Senate. Indeed, he is certainly the equal of any man he will meet there, and far superior to most of them. —Greensboro Herald, 30<A inst. A Clever Hit. —Apropos of the late celebration of the birthday of General Lee, the Pottsville Miners’ Journal says: Our Southern brethren who were estranged from us by the “late un pleasantness,” haven’t come home yet to have the fattened calf killed. And if “our Southern brethren” did come back in all humility and contrition to enjoy the flitted calf, we fear that some people would only furnish them mighty poor veal.— N: Y. Commercial Advertiser. “J. N.” The talented editor of the Greens boro Herald , R. R. Thurmond, Esq., thus speaks of “J. N’s” visit to that place, and position as a Philosopher and martyr to his cause of truth: Peerless “J. N,” the immortal phi losopher, and noble martyr to his principles, true to his appointment and to the cause of “Truth and Rec onciliation,” made his appearance promptly on last Tuesday for the fmrpose of delivering his great lec ure, and “lifting the veil.” He came radiant in the light of truth, majestic and grand in the strength of his phi losophy, and his flashing eye, pecu liarly philosophical expression, heigh tened by his long hair falling in grace ful negligence over his herculean shoulders, and upon his eloquent tongue the glorious signal of libera tion and salvation was trembling for utterance; but finding that the aus picious moment for “lifting the veil” and “removing the pressure” had not fully arrived, he, with commendable prudence, decided to postpone his lec ture until another time, hoping by frequent oppointments and postpone ments, to prepare the minds and hearts of the people for the glorious advent of Reconciliation. He was satisfied that he could have lifted the veil here last night, but as it would E[> back upon the North, unless the fling here was at the proper mo ment, he could not be induced to en danger his grand theory by such a rash and unphilosophical deed. This noble martyr and hero looks like a philosopher, talks like one, and is ready to-day to cast himself, like a noble Roman of old, into the abyss, that his cause may triumph and the pressure be removed from off the people. As this pressure can never be removed until he lifts the veil, groaning in our agony, we cry unto nim, return, O, peerless “J. N ” re turn !! THE SURRENDER OL GENER AL LEE. At Appomattox C. H.

Washington, Jan. 27, 1873. a piling «f relief here that the Sena torial eleeobns in suflpral Stalls are at la4 over. The codpst in CHtorgia • xci ad much interest in Washington political dptes. The election of Gen- j eial Gordon gives uni venal apnfac-1 tion. The Legislature can feel as sured that they have done a good thing for Georgia. Gordon will be well received been, and he can be of more service to the State than either of his distinguished competitors could possibly have been. We may as well recognise the fact at once that Southern ante-bellum politicians can do our people no good nere, however great their abilities may be. This is an unpalatable truth but no one can be here long without becoming perfectly convinced of it. COTTON TAX. The House to-day refused, by a vote of 76 to 105, to instruct the Com mittee on Ways and Means to report the cotton tax bill, known as the Pierce or McKee bill. This is the bill that Ex-Governor H. V. Johnson is interested in. The friends of the hill managed it badly. It is barely pos sible that action may be had during the present session upon some other bill to refund the cotton tax. The committee takes the ground that the government had the right to tax oot ton that was exported, and as they estimate that two-thirds was export ed, they are in favor of refunding two-thirds of the tax. My own im pression is, that nothing will be done with it this session. The franking privilege was abolished to-day by a large majority. FROBEL AND HIS GUTTER. The 13th day of February has been set for the Atlantic and Great West ern Canal bill in the House. We are sanguine of its passage. We have found strong friends where we least expected it. Colonel Frobel has been invited to argue the merits of the enterprise be fore the special committee, of which Senator Windom is chairman, on Tuesday evening, 28th instant. His argument before the House commit tee excited great interest, and was printed by order of the committee.— This is the only instance on record where the argument of a private in dividual has been printed by order of the committee, except in cases of con tested elections. DU BOSE. The speech of Hon. D. M. Dußose on the canal, delivered on the 11th, has excited much interest in Congress, and has made for General Dußose an enviable reputation. It was an able speech, and would do great credit to much older and more experienced members than General Dußose. It has given him an influence here pos sessed by no other member of his age. He will leave Congress very much regretted. W. H. W. CURE FOR MENINGITIS. The Freeport (111) Bulletin pub lishes the following letter from a fentleman in Michigan to a friend in Freeport: I only write to tell you what will save every case of “cerebro-spinal meningitis.” It is the same epidem ic that raged in this State in tne win ters of 1847 and 1848, which broke up our Legislature, and which carried to the grave every one it touched until the old-fashioned hemlock sweats were adopted, after which every case was saved. Our people sent about twenty-five miles and procured hemlock boughs, and they sent for it from all parts of the State. There was a company here that was called the “Hook ana Ladder Company,” that for weeks did nothing night and day but go fly'vw Vtrtnso +r> KnuaoAuu»n!i^twliu>k Thorough sweating might do, but there is no mistake about hemlock sweats being a specific. One of the Old Crowd. —General Gordon, with h ose name our read ers have become familiar during the last few weeks as the newly electee Senator from Georgia, belongs to the Old Crowd who are perpetually com ing to the rescue of the Constitution and the flag.— Washington Republi can. You have put it down exactly right. He does belong to that “old crowd,” and that’s one reason we sent him to Washington. That “crowd” are peculiarly obnoxious to the “crowd” you belong to, but they comprise pretty much all the patriot ism and honesty left in the country. They have fought your “crowd” on that line long and well, and will whip you yet or the country will go to Tophet. They don’t steal nor lie, nor violate the law, nor get up Cred it Mobilier frauds, nor buy Senators and Represntatives in Congress, nor plunder the Treasury, nor set up and protect thieves in their raids up on the people’s pockets, nor organize negro and carpet-bag scallawag gov ernments at the South, whose shame less corruption, ignorance and pro fligacy stink even in your own nos trils. That “old crowd” don’t have any Bullocks, or Scotts, or Holdens, or Brownlows, or Claytons, or Pinch backs, or Oakes Ames, or Pattersons, or Colfaxes, in their membership, and when a thief or a scoundrel slips in they pitch him out neck and crop for you to take into your “crowd” and give him a fat office. Thank God for such an “old crowd,” and may it always live to fight you and yours.— Telegraph and Messenger. Another R. R. Accident.—Two Freight Car Smashed.—Near Al atoona, and not a great way from where the sleeping car flew the track Wednesday night, another accident occurred yesterday morning, by which two freight boxes heavily la den were precipitated down an em bankment, completely smashing them up. Fortunately no one on the train was hurt, and no further damage done than this. The passenger train due here yes terday was delayed several hours iu consequence of the break in the road. As we mentioned in our yester day’s edition, these accident are sure ly the result of the unprecedented cold weather, which has been really so bad for two months past that work men could not stay out in it. We have every assurance that the management of this important road are using every exertion in their power to relieve it of the chances of accidents which now more or less en cumber all our lines of travel. Atlanta Sun. A Compliment to Methodism.— Rev. T. D. Talmage, of Brooklyn, N. Y., in one of hte sermons, in spew ing of “Methodism as it appears to an outsider,” pays them the follow ing compliment: “You never hate any fine essays read in that Church, nor exquisite descriptions of Heaven as the place where the ’hicrophantlc soul will sail down the picturesque vista of protoplasm to the shore of the Analogies.’ In that Church, Heaven is Heaven, and Hell is Hell, and Christ is God.” The total number of emmigrants that left Liverpool during 1872 for America was one hundred and sixty four thousand. Smith county gives theG. N. R. R. $350,C00 and the city of Tyler $50,000, to have the depot located there. A. T. Hackett was confirmed Solic toitr General of Cherokee Circuit. GENERAL NEWS ITEMS. Bum Cruz to tpleted. arming peo • m loom Spring is preparing for his summer cam paign. Mr. Kittles, living near Ringgold, caught iixteen wild turkeys in & pen last week. ___ Donaldson, the aeronaut, proposes to make a balloon voyage across the Atlantic in the summer. The present Legislature seems more disposed to move the Capital to Mil ledgeville than any previous one. Rev. J. C. Gaston, a Presbyterian minister of Coryelle county, Texas, died sudently a lew days ago. Over one-half of the memebere of the Kellogg legislature of Louisiana can neither read nor write. Contractors are at work on the Houston and Great Northern Rail road, within the corporate limits of the city of Tyler, Texas. Ten persons, who went to Texa9 from Georgia, have returned to At lanta, and now say if you want to starve “Young man, go West.” The annual sale of pews in Plym outh church, Brooklyn, realize for rent and premiums over sixty-five thousand dollars. Three hundred negroes have just emigrated from Laurence and New berry counties, South Carolina, to Tennessee. It cost dentist $75 for a pound of flesh attached to a sound molar that he yanked from the jaw of a Yankee in place of a defective one. In all probability the next wheat harvest in Californa will largely ex ceed the unexampled crop of last year. Mr. Shewmake offered a resolution that after Monday, 3d February, no new matter be introduced, except by a vote of two-thirds. The resolution was agreed to. An Evansville street car horse ran away, and so strong was the force of habit that he made the round trip, switches, turn-tables and all, coming in on a dead run. Emigration.— We learn that trans portation for five hundred negro em igrants is engaged this week over the State Road. Thus the damaging ex odus of labor continues. MARRIED, At Henderson, on the 15th ultimo, Maj. Belton Crawford, of Bartow county, to Mrs Cobb, of Henderson. Houston Home Journal. Two Lafayette girls contracted neuralgia by sleeping with their hands in a stocking of mush to whit en them. The mush was put on hot but froze before morning. Wisconsin, where the forests are so dry that fears of another great confla gration are entertained. The swamps are all dry. General Runkle, late of the freed mau’s bureau, has been tried for frauds in office, convicted, and sentenced to a fine of $7,000 and four years in the penitentiary. A bill abolishing the office of admi i&l and Vice Admiral of the Navy has passed both house of Congress, and awaits the actions of the Presi dent. It occurred to a Danbury scholar, while writing a composition last week, to make the remarkable state ment that “an ox does not taste as good as an oyster, but it can run fast er.” A Northern divine is opposed to the gallows, and believes that poisons are the better way of taking the lives of criminals convicted of capital of fences. A lady in Fort Wayne has cards out for her silver, crystal and tin weddings, which occur on the same day. Her first two husbands (di vorced) have received invitations, but perversely decline attending. Three hundred and seventy-six bills have been introduced into the House of Representatives. Os this number twenty-nine have been passed, eight last and four or five tabled. Over three hundred and twenty bills re main to be acted on. Foster, the car-hook murderer, will hang, if Gov. Shoothimonthespot Dix does not pardon him. With Stokes and Foster, and the dozen other murderers in the Tombs effec tually disposed of, New York might not average over one murder a week this year. __ It is stated that a party of Ameri cans celebrated thanksgiving day on the shores of the Dead Sea, and that not even the necessary turkey was absent from the board. They aston ished the staid Arabs with their en thusiasm at every mention of “home, sweet home.” A little romance about Ben Wade’s daughter and her “tail young carpen ter” will have to be given up. Ben says that to begin with he made no objection to their marriage;. in the second place that his daughter never was engaged to the carpenter in ques tion, and thirdly that he never had a daughter. “J. N.,” the philosopher and orator, will address the General Assembly In the Hall of the House of Represen tatives on Bth of February, when he will “lift the veil aud remove the pressure” by defending the patriot ism of the soldiers on both sides of the late wars. The case of Peter Lewis vs. The Central Railroad Company, has been compromised by the payment of S3OO by the Company. Lewis is from Atnericus and lost his wife and two children at the recent collision at Bear Creek, on the Macon and Western Railroad. To Rent. A SMALL DWELLING on snice lot. Apply to JOHN T. NORRIS.
