The latest thing in politics is the re

FOB THE “TIMES.”
HAPPY NEW YE Alt
Is a familiar greeting ton'll of us ;
but how many extend the words with
out truly meaning them—or, in other
words, are merely willing that others
should be happy provided it cost them
nothing. We should wish a happy
new year only to those we are willing
lo strive to make happy, and that
should be all of our fellow-beings.
There are times when all need help,
in a word, a look, or iu some way, and
it is generally in our power to bestow
what is needed. It is not always the
purse that is need to be opened, but
oltener the heart of sympathy, that we
may J rejoice wijLb those that do re
joice, and weep with those that weep,’’
which enables us to obtain the confi
dence and respect of others, and gives
a chance to administer both t o their
temporal and spiritual welfare. Oh, for
influence among the people to do good.
Wed may it be said, ‘lie that wiunetb
souls is wise/ All of our flaunting
and watering is iu vain unless God
gives the increase ; and I may add,
a'l of our attempts to plant and water
among those with whom we have no
influence, is already in vajn. Let us
work to obtain an influence among our
people, and use it for the good of both
body and soul, thus making the year
round a happy one, both for those who
may or may nojt se it close; happy in
time and in eternity, by trying to fol
low in the footsteps of Him who bought
for us such happiness and sealed it
with His blood-
Oh, Christian, it is New Year’s morn,
Up, and gird your armor on j
Gather the giain into the store
Before the harvest time is o’er.
“Why stind ye idle here ?” He said,
There is work and wages too. ahead ;
None of you need idle be
If you will only follow me.
And what's the wages ? may I ask,
It faithfully I do my task :
Eternal life, a home in Heaven,
And crowu of light will then he given.

The Macon Telegraph of the 7th inst,
says •:
The Brunswick Railroad authorities
hayc information that on Sunday last
there were two inches of snow jn Jack
sonville, three in Fernand'na, and two
to two and a half in Brunswick, On
Friday previous a gentleman tells us,
the foanj caps at Bruuswick, as they
dashed successfully on the beach, stif
fened into ice at once, making a very
pretty and massive piece of frost
work.
Although the coon oyster must have
suffered immensely from the low tern*
per a tty re between tides, no complaints
are reported. The fish which have
been shipped from the coast since the
Ist instant have had no need of ice,
being themselves frozen as hard as
rocks. Altogether, wo have had nov
el experience since the advent of 1879.
Tbe Cold Weather.
Atlanta, Ga., Jan 7.—Skating in
Atlanta for the first time in twenty
years took place during the cold sped.
Thousands of pounds of ice were cut
and packed here. This is the first time
such a thing has ever occutred here.
There is great suffering among the
poor. The city is reliving the suffer
ing:.
Darien, Ga , Jan. 7. —There was
quite a snow storm here this morning.
It is the first ol the kind in fifty years.
Rome, Ga., Jan, 6.—The steamer
Sidney P. Smith was prevented from
making her regular trip down the Coo
i a to-day on account of heavy floats
of ice from Etowah and Oostanaula
rivers,
A Costly Machine,
The recent report of the Secretary
of War shows the total strength of the
U. S. Army to be 24,761 men, and no
less than forty miiiious of dollars are
demanded for its support. This makes
our military establishment the most
costly in the world. We see it record
ed that the Mexican war, which was
carried on io a foreign country, and
lasted two years, cost the government
less than one hundred milliun dollars,
although one hundred thousand men
were placed in service. At that rate
our peace establishment is more ex
pensive annually by far, in proportion
to the f;rce enlisted, than when en
gaged in active hostilities abroad. Is
not this due to the extravagance of a
Radical administration ?
It was formerly estimated, says an
exchange, that every soldier cost one
thousand dollars a year, but, accord
ing to the estimate of Mr. Sherman, it
is now nearly fifteen hundred per man.
This is a crying shame, and we trust
our prc*ent Democratic Congress will
go to the bottom of every army con
tract and expose the huge frauds
which alone can account for such ex
travagant expenditures.

The lease of the Penitentiary con

BILL ARP’S CHAT,
Wherein He Becomes Pensive.
From the Atlanta Constitution.
“If parts allure thee, think how Bacon shined,
The wisest, brightest, meanest of mankind.”
Mr. Webster will have to make a
new dictionary, for as it is we cani
keep up with tlwe new words and new
ways. If there were any interviewers
in his day, or if one min ever inter
viewed another, he dident know D, for
there are no such words in the book.—
It must he anew science which you
editors have invented to gratify folks
who like a sensation, and can digest a
•weet little morsel of slander better
than a sermon on charity*- If ever a
public man lias a wound or a sore, the
newspaper surgeon starts out on the
run with his probe and sticks it into
him and twists it all around like a .cork
screw till he gets to the bottom and
then hurries back and treats the pub
lic to a nice dish of interview. If one
man has a quarrel with another, or is
jealous of somebody, or has got mixed
up with some little feminine scandal,
or wants an office, or has got an opin
ion as is an opinion,or goes somewhere
and comes back, three or four go for
him right away, and it dont make any
difference whether he has gone to b< and
or haint got up, or is eating his break
fast or otherwise engaged, he's got to
submit to an interview and he knows
it, foj* the press is a power ip the land,
and the press wont allow any man to
bottle flinisell up with impunity. Last
week a feller in Kentucky interviewed
a respectable woman whose husband
had run away with another woman,
and bored out her view s on the situa
tion—what she thought about it and
was going to do about ; and there's
never a hangin in the land but what
the priest or the preacher and kinfolks
have to give way to the interviewer,
and the poor fellow on the last night of
his life has to tell all about it, and give
his views of the gallus and Jdcath and
heaven and hell for the entertainment
of a few thousand who don’t care a
darn whether he was innocent or guil
ty. There's no conduct too scandalous
for'em, and no grief too sacred.
But there's another brannb of busi
ness that don't need any sympathy.—
It's the fashion of late, with most of
our public men, to get interviewed
for their own benefit. Aspiring
men don't like to be forgotten—so
when the aewspapers are chock full of
wars and murders and shipwrecks and
Beecher aud Edison and O’Leary and
the like, they get jealous and restless
and hunt up an interviewer. You sec
its highly important that they keep
themselves continually before the peo
ple just like a patent medicine and
every little notice from the press helps
them amazingly, as for inst&nce, Gen
eral Swell has sent in five dollars for
the yellow fever, or Colonel Conceit is
in town stopping atthe Kimball house.
Then again, if a public man gets into
trouble, or has doue something mean
and wants to lie out of it, or desires
to flatter up somebody who can do him
a favor, or pull down somebody who is
in his way, he gives the interviewer
the wink to come round,.and when he
cal’s he finds the answers all cut and
dried, and they go forth to the world
as the corkscrewed gushings of patri
otism and truth.
These mortifying reflections are not
spontaneous, but they rise up and
come forth while ruminating upon
soj&e of the late interviews of our pub
lic men. 1 wonder if a man can be
great without being small about some
thing—jealous, envious, vain, conceit
ed, revengeful or splenetic, as the doc
tors call it. Georgia is a great state
and has always boasted of great men,
great statesmen, good judges, men of
parts—but having parts dont seem to
make a man amiable, unselfish, nor
does a man get any more angelic as
he gets nigher the top of the ladder,
for it aint like old father Jacob’s that
pointed heavenward. About three
fourths of all that climb it get the dev
il's help, and as the reach the top the
old rascal sticks em on a spit and
shoves off in the multitude with a Sa
tanic grin, uncovering patches of envy
or plumes of conceit or dark splotches
of slander or some other weakness
that human frailty is heir to. Ever
since I can remember our great men
have been fussing anxi quarreling with
one another, and they are at it yet. It
may bo the same way in oilier states,
but if so we dont hear of it, and it is
very mortifying to admit we haven't
got any other sort to set up ns sign
boards for us wayfariu fools to travel
by.
There has been a heap said and
written about folks shooting the shafts
of euvy at those who are higher np in
the world than themselves, but it looks
to me like ’the ups set the downs a
very bad • example, lor they shoot
harder aud further and oltener than
anybody else, though perhaps they do
it with more refinement. With some
folks tl # manner of the thing does
make a difference* I know, for I’ve
seen several who would take the lie
straight and plain, but wouldnt take
the dam lie from nobody. But it ap
pears to me that any kind of a lie is any
more ban to say of a man he h devoid
of truth, and I would rather be called
a fool or an idiot any time than a weak
man with good intentions.
Well now, if it i envy and jealousy
thats at the bottom of all this fussing,
I suppose there’s no remedy ; but if it
is the spleen thats affected, it seems to
me that the doetor ought to be called
in at once. Aint there room enough
for ad of our big men who have already
got office ? I remember what Chief
Justice Lumpkin said once to some
young lawyers, that there was plenty
of room at the top. He knew, for he
was up there, and he was a great man
without malice or envy, or any weak
ness to tarnish the luster of his name
Pity we ha vent got many more like
him. But it looks like our statesmen
are powerfully crowded in some way.
If they cant climb up fast enough in
the regular way they go to quarreling
or slandering, and Fort says lies kno'vd
em to hunt up the life insurance book
and count up how long a man who is
in their way is likely to live. Me and
him was talkiug one day about death
and says he :
“Bill, deaifi is a mighty good thing
in its way. When a rich man dies
theres a heap of souls made happy ;
when an officeholder dies it makes room
for another, who t has been waiting a
long time ; when a stray bullet took
off a colon 1 in the army, there was
about a dozen promotions right away,
and I was thinking the other day that
if an incrufcable providence should call
upon our chief justice's home, one of
his brethren would step right up into
his shoes, and then a circuit judge s‘.ep
into his shoes, and some lawyer step
into the circuit judge's shoes, and some
other lawyer step into that lawyer's
year's business, and so on and so forth,
and all this would help the boys out
amazingly, and it seems to njie that a
philanthropic individual who had held
offis a long time could afford to die just
as an accommodation, but they wont
do it till the l,a*t mipute; will they ?
Gn the whole I don’t tlfink theres
much comfort in having pans. A high
private and a poor man have about as
good a time as anybody.
Bill Arp.
Who are Disfranchised?
From the Macon Telegraph.
There is much ado at the North con
cerning thedisfranchishmcnt of uegroes
in South Carolina, Georgia, Albania,
Mississippi and Louisiana, whereas, if
the truth was only known, these dusky
suffrage slingers not only in many in
stances vote once, but often, at every
election, and pocket nice sums from
both s:dHB iu each contest, whether po
litical or personal. .
The fact is, maugreelection districts
registration or any other precaution in
the premises, thjß average darkey has
it I is own way on these occasions, for
lie can no more be distinguished from
his.fellows than one cow from another
when a flock of these noisy marauders
settle down upon acorn field-
The whole thing of universal suffrage
is almost an unmitigated farce at the
South, so lar as the negroes are con
cerned, for not one in twenty of them
know whether his ticket is upside down
or not, or can read the names of the
candidates he has promised or been
subsidized to vote for, and only values
bis vote for the whisky or cash it will
pan out. There is more truth than po
etry in this statement, albeit the fact is
patent to every candid southerner that
the carpet-baggers and Rads have to
ail infinitely greater extent than the
Democrats, and upon much cheaper
terms, monopolized the votes of the
simple-hearted negroes, who had ta
ken up the idea that the Yankee sol
diers, wiio robbed them on every oc
casion, and the federal offic als aud so
called missionaries, who levied con
tributions world without end from their
unsuspecting victims, were their best
friends But we have reason to hope
and believe that our colored citizens
are gradually opening their eyes to
the true condition of affairs, and in time
realize that their interests are in reali
ty identical with the fortunes of the
white owners of the soil who give them
employment.
These remarks were predicated upon
the following paragraph, clipped from
that sterling Democratic papor, the
Doylestown (Penn.) Democrat:
‘‘Wonderful are the beauties of our
legislative apportionments. Philadel
phia, with 70,000 republican voters,
e’ects thirty-one members of the Leg
islature, and ths Democrats with 56,-
500, elects seven. That is. 2,300 re
publican votes elect a member of the
House, while it takes 8,000 Democrat
ic votes to secure a Ike result. And
yet the republicans talk of disfranchise
ment at the South. We have it in its
worst form in Pennsylvania.
