A Beautiful Gift.—The Propri
etor* of this paper have purchased and
placed on exhibition at ihe Book Store
of Dr. T, 8. Powell, a large and ele
gant'y hound Family Bible, which
we propose to present to the person
procuring the largest number of sub
scribers (for one year! to the Aipeal
before the 14th day of April next, at
which time the Book will be presented
and the name of the person receiving it
made public.
Persons intending 'to enter for this
beautiful and valuable gift should leave
their names at this office, to enable us
to place to’their credit the names they
procure.
Call and see the Rook, and we know
yew will make an effort to secure it.
TIibh Times at Atlanta.—We pub
lish the first days proceeding of the at
tempt at reorganizing the Legislature.
A very pretty fight is goiBg on be
tween Bullock and Bryan, and both par
tis* appeal for succor dull support to
Gen. Terry. It wifi be -Been the wily
General declines present interference.
IKeBnwbiie Democrats look coolly
on, and admire the happy family. Bye
and bye they .will make their appearance
upon the stage, and we trust with tel
ling effect.
So huge a farce was never before en
acted before high Heaven.
J3ST Conley has been elected Presi-
dh’nt of the Senate, at Atlanta. The
House has not yet completed its organ
ization. Muoh excitement prevails.—
It is thought the Democrats and Con
servatives will have a clear majority in
•the House, and that Bryant will be
elected Bpeaker.
Gov. Bullock selected a negro called
Baird, to read the Reconstruction Act.
A large portion of the press of Geor-
gir is now represented at Atlanta.
About 15 members in all, it.is'tbought

Glorious News—The Work Pro
gresses-
Last week the President of the Bain-
bridge, Culbbert and Columbus Rail
road, sent us the following telegram :
Col II II. Jones:—Contracts to Col
quitt, have been let to Msj. Harris.—
The line thence to Cothbert was order
ed to be prepared at once for contrac-
B. F. Brdtox, President.
jtQf- The Telegraph & Messenger
speak of the Legislature, as the 'Geor
gia Congressional Ageucy.
£y General Terry has been treat
ed with great discourtesy, by the big
outsider Harris, who has been made
ring master by Bullock.

The Cuthbert Appeal.—This paper,
edited by Col. U. H. Jones, wc con
aider one of the ablest papers published
in the State of Georgia, nnd one of the
truest published anywhere. It is inde
fatigable in its efforts to promote the in
terests of the B. C. & C. Railroad, and
hence, as well as for its intrinsic merits
ns a family and nmvs.journal, the peo
ple of Baiubridgeshould give it a geu-
wrous support. We would be pleased
■to see a hundred subserbors for it in
■our city. Its subscription price is 2.00.
The paper is worth five times that
.amount.
Thanks Brother Russell. Words
like these from an able and experienced
Journalist, long and favorably known
to the entire State, are indeed flattering
We only wish we were really deserv
ing of the same. It affords additional
stimulus however to our efforts to fill
the bill in every sense, and we ahull do
-our best.
1@- Dr. Hilton Screven Jones has
been elected mayor of Batobridge.—
The Argus publishes quite a compli
mentary sketch of his past history.
■Splenetic.—Some crabbed member
<of the medical profession, who believes
that sick people should only dio team-
dem arirn, that is by the hand of
m regular M. D. thus delivers himself
against that harmless oontponod, and
Jilessing to mothers, Mrs. ^Winslows
Soothing Syrup.
Save the Babies.—A correspondent
of the Medical Gazette, who is a prac
tising physician, comes So’the rescue of
the babies against what he denounces
as their deadly enemy, Mrs. Winslow’s
£*>othiug Syrup. He says bo was call
ed to see 4U infant that was in a dviug
condition, apparently from the effect
of a narcotic poison, and ho was as
sured that it bad takeD do medicin# but
this “soothing syrup.” The doctor took
ibe bottle and had some of the syrup
analyzed by a skilful chemist, and the
analysis showed that each ounce of the
atuff contained nearly one grain of mor
phine. A dose for an infant three
mouths-o'd, as prescribed by Mrs. Wins
lew,s printed directions, contained an
amount of morphine equal to ten drops
„f laudmuB. This is ordered to bj
given to the child every two hours, in
certain cases, and double the quantity
to a child of six months old. As chil
dren are very susceptible to the influ
ence of opium, of which morphine is
the active principle, four drops of laud-
num^aving been known to ktH an io-
l.mt of uine months, and as the mann
facturera of firs. Winslow’s Soothing
fiyrup sell annually about one bndred
thousand two-ounce bottles in the single
State of New York, the reader can
firm some idea of the number of babies
that are soothed to perpetual sleep by
this nostrum. Mothers had better fall
back on catnip tea.—Courier Journal.
Our irate doctor, who ro doubt had
lost some paying patient by the magi
cal influence of the Soothing Syrup,
unfortunately for his own reputation
<>v„rsLioots the mark iu the above start-
hug revelation.
Anv pareut knows or should know,
that one grain of morphiue given to aa
infant, would make it sleep that sleep
which knows no waking. Yet who has
not administered dose after dose of the
syrup to the infant of a month, with only
the happiest results.
The very extravagance of the writer
defeats the ead proposed. :
Wc agree with him in deprecating
the giving of laudanum, opium and oth
er powerful narcotics to children, but
pargeorick und mild opiates like the
soothing syrup, are ofreutimes indispen-
*Ais.
tors.
It will thus be perceived that the
managers of this-great enterprise have
gone to work with commendable ener
gy, and in the hands of its indefatigable
head,'Col. Bruton, and the able and ex
perienced engineer in charge, success is
beyond a peradventure.
The company have now in hand am
pie means to construct the first twenty
miles of road, after which the aid
of the State will be forth coming.
In the mean time, subscribers are
meeting with great promptitude the
several assessments called for, and new
names and contributions aro constant
ly added to the list.
Very soon-the-whole line from Bniu-
bridge to this point will be let out in
short sections to contractors, and the
work will then progress rapidly, through
one of the most favorable regions for rail"
reading in the United States. Light
grades, no large water courses, and an
abundance-of the besttimber, offer rare
facilities to the contractors.
‘Once completed tcjjyn-itv. mt£ Stew,
art Coutlty friends ’wfll assuredly take
speedy and vigorous measures to place
themselves in connection with the outer
world.
Not a doubt exists that they alone will
build the road to Lumpkin. Then Co

been singularly apathetic on the subject (
most come to the reecne in eelf defence,
and complete the last link of the enter
prise, or forever lose the rich trade she
dow enjoys, -from Chattahoochee and
Stewart.
Let none then who by their subscrip
tions havo put their shoulders to the
wheell/fuil to -keep the machine in mo.
tion, by their timely subsidies when
needed.
From Col. Screven, we are assured,
of the earnest sympathy and support
of the Atlantic & Gulf Road, in behalf
of onr project, w hich, when finished, will
prove so rich a feeder to that great ar
tery of commerco.
To the front then friends of the Bain-

B®_ Miss Dickinson is a healthy look"
ing girl of four or five and twenty yearsi
of robust and compact frame, and inedi'
um height. She has a good, honest finei
nut marked with any sign of high intel'
1 actuality,"blit ruddy and blight look
ing ; her eyes are dark and arched over
with somewhat heavy dark brows.—
Her hair fs worn adnatcrel; that is, it is
naturally of a wavy, frizzy quality, and
accordingly sets up quite like a respect
able chignon. She was dressed in a
robs fjhiack silk, with a heavy -train ; a
lace stomacher in 'front, ornanieDted with
a large, gold Etruscan brooch. She has
whaf may be called a “good stage ap
pearance,” and her motions, if not mark
ed with any high degree of artistic taste,
are never inelegant or awkward.
The above we clip from an exchange.
Unless greatly mistaken, we think our
contemporary has deprived this strong
mino'ed old girl, of near twenty year s
of her heavenly mission on earth.
If memory serves aright, it was in
the summer of 1853 that we had the
honor of au interview with this doughty
champion of womans rights, and she
was no chicken then.
These remarkable specimens of their
sex. however, are usually sapless, slab-
sided mortals,vr with nothing lovable
or to love about them.
Failing to pick up even a “crooked
stick” in the matrimonial hunt, they be"
come soared and ossified in heart and
nature, and unsex themselves by their
masculine asffmnptiaos.
Such characters hardly ever die.—
They dry up, and become ro eiancholy,
walking mummies, a terror to the plump
aa-id blushing maiden, and a soearge to
the human race.
We would suggest the establishment
of a national velocipede rink for the
confinement of all strong minded women
where they shall be compelled to do
penance for tbeir sins against their sex,
by riding man fashion all their days.
Our New Militabt Commander, Qe.n\
Terry.—The Savannah Republican,
Atlanta Constitution, and other parties
well acquainted with him, give to Geo.
Terry a character for fairness and bon-
erable dealing, in all his transactions.
We trust this may prove to bo cor

Give us a sold'ef and regular army

Pei haps no one has weightier, broad,
er powers than Gen. Terry, the Com
mander of the District. Under tho in
structions of the President, he is very
powerful. We have speculated with
considerable solicitude upon his put-
poses. We are glad to believe that be
is not disposed to be harsh. Many have
opined, and rumors have been circula
ted, that lie was under Governor Bul
lock's manipulation. We have some
ground to believe to the contrary. We
may be deceived, but we shall wait for
the arbitrary act before believing.
One tiling is very certain, that an im
partial, judicious, humane discharge of
his duties, respecting Jaw, doing justice,
and looking only to the public interests,
will do much to rectify the troubles of
our condition, and solve the dificulties
of reconstruction, beside® helping Lis
own reputation, aud winning the regard
of a grateful people,

Atlanta. Ga-, January 8, 1870. )
Bon. 2r. P. Farrow, ‘Attorney General:
Sib—Yoor attention is invited to the
•following extract, from a letter contain
ing an opinion published in the Consti
tution newspaper cf this morning, which
leads me to invite your opinion as to
the scope of the oath provided for mem ,
hers of the provisional Legislature by
the last reconstruction acts;
•But there are some offices, the bold
ing of which does not disqualify. For
instance, one may have held the office
of State Librarian, and afterwards en
gaged iu some act of hostility to the
United Slates, but this is not such an
office, as in connection with such'an act,
will render the person who’boids it tn-
elligible because-it is not an office lor
the administering of any general law of
the State, or for the administration of
justice. Iu fact, t!*e Librarian is not an
officer for administering any general
law. He is an officer to take charge of
and take care of the books, and for
Dotbiug else. What law doeB he ad
minister-?'
‘And go with'regard to the Mayors
and Aldermen of municipal corporations.
They are Dot officers for the adminis
tration of any general law of the State.
They are officers for administering their
own local laws, which have do opera
tion beyond the limits of their respec
tive corporations.’
The opinion gfyen by the writer of
the letter referred to isj^hat baring'!!eld
the office of-State Librarian or Mayor
of a city, and afterwards given aid or
comlort to the rebellion, or holding Of
fice under a government carrying on
such rebellion, would DOt disqualify.—
This opinion, taken in connection with
the editorial comment, -and with the
fact that members are affected by the
precise conditions named Gy that wri
ter, renders it important that an au
thoritative opinion sbonld be made pub
lic, covering the legal construction of
the oath in the act referred -to.
Very respectfully,
Rufus B. Bullock.
In reply, the Attorney General in a
lengthy but very shallow letter, announ
ces the following, as embracing those
intended to be excluded from holding
office by the late Reconstruction Act of
Congress.
* * w w » •
I submit the following list of officers,
which, in my judgment, under the rules
I have mentioned, are included, under
the terms of tbe-osth :
1st. Governor, and such Secretaries
of the Executive Department as are
provided for by law.
2d. AU members of the Legislature
and the officers .provided by law of each
HoU8C.
3d. Mombers of Stats 'Conventions
held under authority of law and the offi.
cere of such Conventions.
4th. Secretary of State, Comptroller
General, Surveyor General, Treasurer,
Librarian, and Supreintendoots of the
various Aesylums and Public Iustftu
lions of the State, with such -other ‘offi
cers’ therein as are provided for by law.
6th. The Principal Keeper, Assistant
Keeper, Chaplain, Book-keeper and all
other officers of Penitentiary, provided
for by law.
7th. Judges of Supreme Court, Clerk
and Reporters.
8th. Judges and Solicitor General ef
Superior Courts and Clerks of soch
Courts.
9lh. Judges of the City Courts and
of the Inferior Courts, and Clerks of
such Courts.
10th. Ordinaries, and Clerks of Court
of Ordinary.
11th. Sheriffs, Deputies, Jailors and
Coroners, County Treasurers, Tax Col.
lectors, Tax Receivers and Surveyors.
12th. Magistrates, Notaries Public,
Constables and Rosd Commissioners.
14th. Officers of towns-or cities who
by virtue of their offices were author
ized to issfle warrants or make arrests
for the vielati >n of any general law of a
State.
15th. United States officers of every
kind, civil, miiitaTy or naval-; legisla
tive, executive or Judicial, commission
ed of non-commissioned. In other
words, any one nalected by authority of
law for the performance of any duty
for the public under a law of the United
States. There may be other -officers
which have been overlooked, for in this
list shoo’d he included all persons, ‘ap
pointed by publie authority to carry in-
effect the provisions of any general law
of a Stale, whether the spere of duty
of the officer includes the whole State
or is confined to localities.
Under this rale I have included *Con
stables, Notaries Public and Road
Commissioners,’ have done so because
they, each of them, undoubtedly admin
istered and executed general laws.
A Notary Public protested notes, ad
ministered oaths upon which to issue
hail writs, and issued attachments, aud
was entitled to fees.
Road Commissioners held courts, gave
judgments and issued executions, and
in many ways administered general
laws. They, as well as constables,
sheriffs, judges and other officers koowd
to the law, are the machinery by which
the public laws are administered.
But, at contemplated by this oath
it is not enough to reader obb ineligible
to a seat in the Legislature, that he
shall have held office. To be ineligible,
he mnst ‘afterward’ have done’some one
of the disqualifying actn referred to in
the latter portion of the oatb.

To make assurance doubly sate, our
“excellent’’ carpet bagger, then sub
mits Farrows opinion to our military sa
trap, and receives his endorsement.—

General : Permit me to invite your
attention to the enclosed opinion of the
Honorable Attorney General, nnd ask
your judgment as to the correctness of
his opinion.
1 am induced to seek an official ver
sion of the oath front yourself as Com
mander of the District under the Re
construction Acts, because of a report
vrhieh reaches me that persons Hatred in
the order of Gen. Meade, who are dis
qualified, are being pressed to take tbe
oath.
Tbe charge that this pressure is be-
ing bronght to bear for political ends is
supported by the remarkable opinion
and advice contained in s letter publish
ed this moraiDg, over the signature of
the Chairman of tbe political organiza
tion which has continuously opposed tbe
reconstruction policy of Congress.

: for my vielwe upon the matterl have the
honor to state that m mg judgment that
opinion is a eorreet exposition of the law.
I may be permitted to add that 1 can
hardly think it possible that ary persons
who are Dot qualified to sit in the Leg
islature will be so unwise as to attempt
to take the oath, for aside trofn the
consequence which would result to
themse’vas, such a ‘cretrse of action
could hardly fail to impede and delay

A Lesson from the Barbarous
Fagan-
The subjoined Ukase or message,
from the Emperor of Japan, that nation
which more than any other has been
shut out from the civilized world, puts
to the blush the punic faith of modern
Christians (so called,) and contrasts viv
idly with the treatment the South has
received at'the hoods of the conquering
North—or rather more properly tbe
radical North. Our great men have
been disfranchised and ‘remain under
the ban of the government, hot even
able to fill the position of a constable.
Tbeir property as in the case of the
Arlington estate bos been seized and
sequestrated. Their slaves have been
elevated above their heads. Their
fields and every species of property are
taxed to tbe very verge of bankruptcy.
In every possible way have they been
bumbled and subjected to indignities.
How fare possible way the uncivilized
rebel in Japan ?
A gracious sovereign extends tbe-scep-
tre of mercy, and pardon and amnesty
are awarded to the unfortunate.
Wbat a lesson to the enlightened na
tions of the 19th cedtury 7
Well may-we challenge the world for
a parallel to the duplicity, ^oppression and
injustice, which has uniformly character,
ized the congress of the “best govern
ment on earth” in its treatment of an
honorable enemy who had grounded
their arms, and been assured of mag
nanimous terms.
How we shall always love this bles

VYnr the South Failed.—That those
who agree with them are wise men, is
the opinion of some people we have ei
ther seen or read of- We have at least
that reason for holding that Edwin M.
Stanton was a wise man. According
to Don Piatt, he said nearly a year be
fore General Lee’s surrender :
•The rebels have saved us. Instead
of a quick, fierce, progressive war, they
have acted on tbe defensive, and put to ’
issue the material resources of the two
sections. They are failing, through ex
haustion, and I will now crowd ou men
until I smother them out.’
How true. After tbe battle of Ma
nassas the Federal Government had not
an army that would have stood a mo
ment before ours. The whole North
was ojien to us. Pennsylvania, New
York, even Massachusetts. Nothing
stopped us but ignorance of tbe art of
war. There were no armies to do it.
The only army Mr. Lincoln had was
abont Washington City. There was
not half as much' to prevent Beaureg.rd
from marching from Manassas to New
York as four years later stood in Sher
man's way when he marched from At
lanta to Savannah.
And to think that that grand soldier
Stonewall Jackson wanted io march up
on Baltimore and take possession of
Maryland (as he could have easily
done,) at the time of the riot of the 19th
of April, and was not permitted to do it.
Jackson was a born soldier. Tbe move
would have changed the entire aspect
of affairs. But such speculations are
foolish —they areof ‘such stuff as dreams
are made of.’ Perhaps ’twas best onr
