Notice.
Having associated with me in the
publication of the Times, Mr. 11. \V. J.
Ham, formerly of-Montgomery County,
the Editorial department will hereafter
be Under bis immediate supervision,
and control. With this valuable ac
quisition to our force, we hpe to be
able to give our friends and the public.,
a paper that will compare favorably
with any other in the State, and
carnesTy h )pe they will give us their
support and confidence in our effort to
publish a live paper in this section. —
All business communications will, as
heretofore, be addressed to the Under
signed, and all matters pertaining to
the editorial department will be ad
dressed “Editor TiJlf's.”
I*. S. Burton.
Salutatory.
With this number we assume Edito
rial control of the Times, and make
*>ur debut on the journalistic stage.—
And feeling in all their force, the deli
cate surroundings of him who aspires
*to cater to the public taste, we desire
to ask at the hands of our friends
some favors, and in turn to make some
promises. It will be our endeavor to
publish a paper, that when once seen,
will become a necessity in every home
in the Southern portion of our State.
Independent in all things, the organ
of no party, creed, or clique, it will
discuss all questioi* of interest to the
public, from an honest, fair, fearless
and impartial standpoint, will ever be
the unflinching enemy of fraud and
corruption, and the friend and defender
of the weak and oppressed, against
the oppressor however strong and pow
erful, and will ever be devoted to the
interests of the farmer, the merchant
and mechanic, and the edification of
tho fireside circle. To enable us to do
this, we ask the united support of our
friends throughout South and South
eastern Georgia, that they will reward
us according to our merits, and bestow
their confidence, and approval.on our
efforts to promotejheir interests. At
the present time our enterprise is but
in its infancy, and it remains for
time to show whether the people of the
Wire-grass section of Georgia will
uphold and foster in its weakness an
institution, that will in turn in the
to come, protect perhaps their offspring
from tyranny and oppression; when
years have crowned its efforts and
success, and made it a power in the
empire State. . We believe, friends,
that you will, that in the hearts of our
people is sympathy for the weak, and
that you will now lend us a helping
hand, while we fling to the breeze our
banner, and inscribe Excelsior upon its
folds; and we promise you that when
the structure, of which you have helped
us to lay the corner stone, has reared
its lofty head to the pinnacle of power
and prosperity, that it will ever be the
guardian of jour peace and the watch
ful sentinel of your every interest, at
all times, and under all circumstances.
No doubt at times we will err, but il
so Twill be of the head and not of the
heart, and we hope our friends, the
public, and the press, will extend to us
the charity that is ever due him who
unwittingly commits a wrong. To un
derstand the motives and feelings of
another, we must endeavor to place
ourselves in his position, and remem
ber, friends, that when our views do
not happen to coincide with your own,
that perhaps if viewed from our
stand point, you would see tl cm in
the same light. Possessed with a de
sire to advance the interests of our
people, with animosity to none, and
charity for all, we enter upon the dis
charge of our duties, leaving our fu-
turcs hopes, and prosperity in the hands
of an impartial public, and of Him
“who doeth all things well,” trusting
that the first will give us their support
and confidence, and the latter will
bless and crown our efforts with
success.

Melancholy Suicide from Aberration of
Intellect. Mr. Gilbert Clark, a citizen
of Monroe county, hung himself List Friday
night. He liad been laboring under deep
mental depression for a month or two, in
which he was tormented with apprehensions
of starvation in old age. His unsettled state,
of intellect and hints of self-destruction excited
the apprehensions of his family and friends
who kept a wateh upon him. But on Friday,
after midnight, liis guardians fell asleep, and
lie stole out of the house and hung himself to
the limb of a China tree. His body was foun 1
two or three hours after, but life was quite ex
tinct. Mr. Clark was a good man, a useful
citizen and a deacon in the chui'cli at Holly
(irove.

We see ever so much said about Mac-
I'.voys Hibernicon. Now we hate to expose
our ignorance, but we would like to know
what the the deuce a llib* rnicon is, anyhow.
Macon has received her new steamer, the
M. A. Huff, and tested it Friday with most
satisfactory results. If the Telegraph is to be
believed, it is something of a sqr.it.
Duprez and Benedict’s minstrels have been
shaking the buttons off the Macouites.
We clip the following from the Telegraph of
the Bth inst.:
hat An Accident on tut; Macon & Western
Railroad.— When tnedown freight train No.
'2, due here yesterday morning about G o’clock,
was four miles this side of Bar lies vi lie, the en
gine was thrown from tlie track by a broken
rail, and engineer Fleck was instantly killed.
As far as has been ascertained, no one else on
the train was hurt, though it was reported yes
terday evening that a fireman was also killed,
his is undoubtedly iucorrect. Few particulars
of the accident could be obtained yesterday.
The Herald wants the ditches of Sanders
ville looked after, and the road from that place
to No. 13 put in better condition.
We are pleased to see that Dr. J. R. Smith,
i im °ld and valued friend of ours, has taken
editorial charge of the Jefferson News and
former. The doctor is a gentleman of no mean
order of talent, a hard worker, and conscien
tious Christian gentleman, and we congratulate
our lriends on their good fortune in securing
his valuable services. The News and Farmer
is published in one of the best sections of the
State, and under control of the able gentleman
above mentioned, we see no reason why it
should not become a leading weekly.

upon the News innocently inquires “who can I
beat that ? we give it up.”
I. H. Anderson, the colored Senator, from

A Macon young man “who has buffeted the

dreary years, and did not tremble for the issue

Wilt thou leave me in my anguish,
Groping on through life alone ?
Shall I, weak and trembling languish,
With no arm around me thrown?

We have received No. 3 of the Newnan Dis
patch, by Messrs. Pearce & Birch. The me
chanical execution of tho paper is very good,
and the selections tasty, while the editorials and
general make-up of the sheet reflect considera
ble credit on the gentlemen having it in charge.
Such papers are ever welcome visitors at the
Times office, and we cheerfully place it on our

Brunswick wants more light, and the Appeal
urges upon the council the necessity for lamps
in certain localities.
Woods of the Hawkinsville Dispatch wants
a cook. So do we, provided she will take gen
eral supervision of our domestic arrangements,
and let us try the realities of “love in a cottage.’
There was an attempt made to rob a young
gentleman of Brunswick the other night, where
upon the Appeal suggests the propriety of
shooting on such an occasion. That’s what
we’d do if our powder would explode.
The following sensible remarks we clip from
the Savannah Advertiser of the 7tli inst. They
speak our sentiments on the same subject;
What We Think.— We regret, more for the
sake of the honesty and independence of the
press, than for any mental pang of our own, to
find a disposition among many to choke down
the frank expression of opinion through the
columns of the public journals, which are es
sentially the c rgans of public opinion and should
be open to the free discussion of all matters
pertaining to the common weal. Speaking for
ourselven solely, we propose to live up to our
belief in the future, as we have endeavored to
do in the piist. We care not for one man or
set of men, and as the people's paper we shall
strive to give every one a hearing who keeps
within the bounds of decency and decorum. ; —
We hold that every man has the right to criti
cize, and, if need be, condemn the public acts
of public institutions. Inspired by this
belief nothing shall make us afraid to
maintain our independence in this respect,
without becoming responsible, however, in any
.- use, for the views of corrcspoutiebOu *
A negro in Brunswick attacked one of the
merchants with a crowbar the other day, and
when a policeman took after him, and several
quiet men tried to shoot him, he made for the
river, and jumped in, where the Appeal sup
poses he is sill swimming around.
Some young ladies called on the Southeast
Georgian man the other day, and one of them
declared that she “would never again complain
if she discovered a typographical error in her
paper,” at which he ups and and says he'll
warrant she’d make a kind wife. Is he a mar
ried man? We ain't and would like to know
her.
Duties Hang Together.
Philosophers tell us that there is no
particle of matter and no law of nature
that is not indissolubly linked with
every other particle and every other
law. They are united in their great
Creator, who has so stamped every
product of his hand as to show that lie
is the Author. Theology and experi
ence reveal the fact that there is no
doctrine in the Bible, and no duty in
life, that is not in likemanner bound
up with every other doctrine and every
other duty, and for a like reason they
find their origin in that One God from
whom proceed all the doctrines of the
Bible, and all the duties of A sad
experience and observation, also in
form us 1 hat every error in religious
creed, and every sin in human life is
associated with every other sin and
error; tiny find their union in him who
is the great “Father of Lies/-’ and the
principle of all evil.
All dalles hang, together; and so, alas!
do all sins. The person who earnestly
i and honestly sets about discharging
j his whole duty to God, in any one par
| tieular, is a person of hopeful pros-!
j pects; for as surely as he puts himself |
I under the guidance of God’s .Spirit in j
that one particular, he will be led on j
from duty to duty, and from one degree !
knowledge to another, until he is i
brought to Christ. And whoever gives j
lumself up unreservedly to anv one sin
• . * * ’
is a person of gloomy (we are loth to j
say,) of hopeless prospects; for one sin |
will open the door for another in eno-1
less succession, until ho is brought to j
that state in which the dealing of God
with him seems to say, “Ephraim is
joined to his idols; let him alone.”
Ihe only mode by which we can
safely work our waj r through the
snares and temptations of a world of
sin, is to throw ourselves as unreser
ved! j’ as pussi ole on the* side of truth '
and duty; for then it, wit] not be our- j
selves only that will light the battle, !
but the Captain of our Salvation, who, '
with his strong arm and watc.hTnl au>j
will ~~ j
In order, therefore to insure Ills
reedful presence and protection, let j
us eveiy Sabbath Day culivate an !
especial nearness to Him ; and between |
one sabbath and another, let ns daily
consecrate a little time in which as in
minature Sabbath wo may draw near
to him, and, with the Bible in our j
hands, and the languge of faith upon j
our lips, beseech Him to be our helper, j
in whom is all our hope. F. R. G,

There is no such substitute for the
preaching of the word, as the effectual,
and ordinary means of conversion and
Christian confirmation. No one who
expects to die the death of the right
eous can simply leave this, ami resort
to meditations upon the divine good
ness in the fields and woods, or to the
quietude of his own spirit at u: • r
to the oracle of reason, or the printed
sermons of gifted authors. A printed
sermon as read at home may be better
written, may be more profound, finish
ed, or spiritual, but the fact that the
reading of sermons in private by those
who attend church, is not the divine
plan, is enough to condemn it as a sub
stitute.
No matter who preaches. The am
bassador whom a Ei r ipean sovereign
may send to our national capital can
not be ignored because he may be a
third-rate or a tenth-rate statesman;
if he have the seal of his royal master
in his commission, he is received and
his dispatches considered. And so,
without allowing personal considera
tions to obtrude, we should concern
ourselves chiefly with the overtures
which our Divine Sovereign makes to
us, under Ilis own seal, sending by
whom lie will.
For those physically able to attend
Church, but spiritually languid, and in
practice irregular or neglectful, we say
turn over anew leaf Go to Church.
You will find a providence in it, for
God’s word and providence go togeth

The "Washington Capital says: It
seems that Fred. Grant brought back
from Europe a bit of Imperial gossin.
1 We were flattering ourselves that the
Grand Duke was sent to the I nited
States for the purpose, of studying
our institutions, and the characters,
manners, and so forth, of our people.
It was the first time, we were assured,
that a son of a Czar had been sent to
a J Republic. It turns out, however,
according to Fred., that this is a delu
sion. The Prince Imperial had become
enamored of a lady not of the Blood
royal, by any maimer of means, and
wished to marry her. This did not
meet the approval of the Imperial fam
ily, and so, to get clear of the messaUi
an.ee, the young man was sent abroad.
But love laughs at locksmiths (when
he has a latch.key), and the young
girl followed her Imperial lover "as far
as London, and the two were united
on the sly in the holy bonds of matri
mony. This, coining to the ears of the
ImperialTather, resulted in a banish
ment that will probably last his life
time, and file y mug gentleman wih g

The Heading’ Eagle of Saturday
contains an account of a conversation !
between one of its reporters and Don- j
aldson, the au'onat. Speaking of his 1
contemplated voyage across the At
lantic, Donaldson says :
Since the Eagle first printed an ac
count of my proposed ocean voyage I
received as high as fifty-six letters and
nearly as many different newspapers
containing the article copied frnm the
Eagle lam about closing an agree
ment with the aeronaut Wise, who
will accompany me to Europe by bal
loon. We are in communication with
the Mayor of Boston and other officials
with respect to the affair. The people
arc becoming interested in the affair,
and we shall certainly start as the
Eagle first announced. The plans
and specifications of my air ship to
cross the Atlantic arc as follows:
“It is to be 80 feet in diameter, with
a capacity of 268,000 feet of gas To
construct it will require 2,300 square
yards of coinbric* and it will be ca
pable of lifting to the require! altitude
9, 380 pounds. The weight of the
gas chamber will be 1, 532 pounds
while the netting, etc, will weigh
500 bounds. The two supply balloons
will be 32 feet in diameter, which will
require 394 yards of material; with
a capacity of 28, 000 cubic feet, and a
lifting power of 980 pounds. The
weight of the two supply balloons
nettings, ect, wall be 280 pounds. A
small balloon to save gas as it ex
pands will weigh 140 pounds, making
a grand total of lifting power of 10,-
000 pounds; total weight in full about
40, 000 pounds, including rope, bo
bcat, provisions, instruments,ete‘ ect.,
leaving for passengers and supplies
9, 000 pounds. This outfit will be
! sufficient for a trip ar mud the world.”
The aeronaut is at present engaged
!in making a cop}' of the plans and
| drawings to present to the Franklin
j Institute of this city.

The Highest Human Faculty.— I The
London Quarterly Review says, and
says truly: “It has been asserted,
over and again, that owe of the chief
distinctions between man and the ra
ces below him lies in his Sympathy;
that brutes kill or forsake their disa
b cd campani ms, and man alone pities
and assists Ins brother. That the pow
er to feel such sympathy is the divin
est thing in man we are prepared to
admit. Measured by the true stand
ard of things, intellectual progress is
of small account compared to advance
in the power of nnseltish love. The
lowest of human biengs is, not the dull
est and most ignorant, but the most
uideeling; and the highest is, not the
cleverest or most learned, but he who
has the warmest sympathies; and if,
indeed, the lower tribes of earth and
air partake in no degree of such feel
ings, then is the gulf between them
and our race far wider than is opened
lo their lack of power to follow the
philosopher through his inductions,
or the poet through his tlights of im
agination.”
