pe ffiontoc Sulmtusrr. FORSYTH : TUESDAY, : : : : : JAN. 23, 1873. G. A. KINO, B.T.KLHG, W.D.BTOK, PROPHIETORS, WILLIAM D. BTONE, Editor. VALEDICTION. Albeit the word above-written is not the one mosllj employed In this connection, the writer hereof makes bold to go a little beyond the limits of usage. Technically speaking, a “ valedictory ’ is a farewell oration —a set speech ol stilted rhet oric—a dignified adieu—wherein the pedantry of scholarship usually gets the better of honest ex pression. Such a thing does not come within the scope ol the writer’s present intentions. He simp ly desires to say a few words ol farewell in the courteous old fashion, with no affectation of stage step or manner, but with a touch of that hearty regret which rieea in the hearts of honest, earnest men, when they strike hands perhaps for the last time. It is not without serious deliberation that the writer has allowed The Advertiser to pass from his control. The paper has been his pet and his pnde, and It has been his constant endeavor to bring it ap to a standard that should not be sur passed by any provincial weekly in the South. That bia labors to this end have uot been wholly in vain, is due to the very generous patronage which his Journal has received. The Advertiser occupies a conspicuous position among the press, and has received many flattering encomiums from various sources. The editorial columns of the paper, under the control of the writer, have been devoted to the material Interests of Forsyth, of Monroe coun ty, and of the State; and the line of policy pursued has Invariably been that which, in the judge ment of its proprietor, would ledown to the credit of the country and the welfare of the people. In many instances —especially in several local issues, the course of the paper has been In conflict with the opinions and wishes of some of Its best friends, and on one or two occasions some very sharp controversy has been the result This Is perhaps, for many reasons, to be regretted. The opposition of the writer was by no means cap tious, but, on the contrary, was the result of a sincere and disinterested desire to advance the public weal and protect the county credit It was his intention to pander to no personal prejudice; and he haa endeavored, to the best of hla poor ability, to treat the questions referred to, and all other public questions, in a spirit of argumenta tive fairness and candor. Looking back upon the past, be can see that his Judgment has been often at fault and bis conclu sions hasty. It could not well have been other wise. In the gush of good feeling which usually precedes leave-takings, and which, happily for us all, Is sometimes of a detersive character, it is not at all improper or unmanly to allow matters to take a confessional turn, and hence, when the writer hereof, in extenuation of the many errors he has committed, pleads lack of time to mature his thoughts and want of opportunity to elaborate them he Is but following a genial custom of the olden time—an amiable weakness indeed—that allows by-gones to be by-gones and that is willing to drown old differences In the last parting beaker. For, on reviewing the course of Thi Advertiser, from its inception to the present time, the writer feels that he assuredly has some thing to be proud of. Although errors of omis sion and commission confront him at every turn with mournful distinctness, he feels that be has been, in some degree, Instrumental in promoting the prosperity of the town and county, and in contributing, substantially, to the general public welfare. Tub Advertiser is to day one of the most profitable newspaper establishments in the South, and has a circulation and a notoriety much larger than is usually attained by publications of its class. The gentlemen to whom the paper has been sold, and who will hereafter conduct it, are well known in this community, and it is hardly necessary for the out-going proprietor to cordially commend them to the good graces of his friends everywhere. It would be multiplying words uselessly for the writer to say how grateful he it to those friends who, from first to last, in all conjunctures, have devoted themselves to the Interests of his paper. To them, In a great measure, is due the success of the enterprise, and their disinterested devotion will always be cherished as a most precious remembrance. Our Brethren ot the Fraternity, with whom the most pleasant relatione have always existed, we leave, for a time, with regret; and for their many kind offices shall ever cherish the fondest emo tions. It is such a pleasing and gratefal task to allude to these things that the ptn seems slipping away into interminable digressions. But, as after the morning comes the evening, after the sermon the benediction, so comes the honr ol farewell. The dear hands must be wrung, the last words mu.it be said—therefore the writer hereof sends forth this his valediction. Jas. P. Habbisox. To the Public. The public has been advised of a change in the proprietary interests ol The Advertiser. Tbs transfer occurred on the 7th inst That a distinct announcement of the tact was not made heretofore, we can only say was owing to circumstances tkit imperatively prevented in By devoting our whole time and energy to Thi Advertiser we hops to secure for it a continuance of its hitherto meri torious character. It is believed by the Propri etors and Publishers of The Advhrtiser that such arrangements have been made as will continue to bold the journal iu the front rank of its con temporaries—to hereafter warrant Its being styled, as heretofore, Tat Premium Weexlt News paper op Georgia. With reliance in the dis crimination of the public, and our own steadfast determination to furnish a dignified and high toned journal, we ask for The Advertiser e cordial support and endorsement. Mr. Cart A. Kino is the Business and Trav elling Agent of this office, and is authorized to make contracts for Subscriptions, Advertisements, Job Work, etc., and receipt for all dues to the offl ce. As additional arrangements are made due notice will be given. Georoe a. Kota A Cos. To the Reader* of the Advertiser. With ibis issue of The Advertise* we assume control of its Editorial Department. Usage and courtesy demands that those who hereafter con trol its editorial columns should, in advance, enunciate the " rule and guida of thalr faith,” and declare the policy they expect to pursue. Under the control of eur predecessor, Mr. Jab. P. Harrison, The Advertiser attained a proud position among the Journals of the State. I.s In fluence, local and general, was felt and apprecia ted, and its prominence among Its contemporaries deserved. By his energy and judgment in the conduct of Lis Journal, Mr. Harrison created for himself an extended and enviable reputation, and his many friends in Monroe county will regret to miss him from their midst. We extend to him our beet wishes for success In any new field cl labor ha may select. In the field upon which we have entered we confess to be an inexperienced laborer. It la be lieved, however, that close observation, earnest efforts, and a determination to succeed in perform ing all that duty requires in the conduct of this department of Thr Advertiser, will insure to its readers an appreciative and meritorious paper. This realous eflort is confidently pledged at the outset. We will be independent in discussing alt public issues. We shall speak our opinion with dne deference to all sides. Our management of its columns will not be dictated, nor our counsels to Its readers suggested, by others, unless s suggestion made is, after consideration, deemed proper to be followed. Claiming independence, the right to think, write and publish opinions upon all Issues that may be presented, of a general or local nature, vhich involve, directly or indi rectly, the interests or good of the people at large, it unequivocally reserved, and no infringement upon this prerogative will be permitted. When Peace, Justice and Mercy reign, their rule will be supported and commended; when Persecution, Confusion end Anarchy appear to disturb the public welfare and tranquility, opposition and denunciation will follow. Conspiracy, Rascality or Corruption will be met boldly, and expoeed without " fear, favor or affection.” We ahall discard ordinary prejudices, unnecessary dis tentions and avoid trivial aud unprofitable bick erings. By a cautious observance of these rules, and an exhibition of proper courtesy to all oppo nents and respect for their honest convictions, we confidently believe that we will best secure “ the greatest good to the greatest number.” If w succeed in this, ocoasioual grumblers can accom plish no barm. In the discussion and support of political ques tions, as tboy are now presented for public consid eratlon, we shall earnestly advocate the principles of Conservative Democracy. The triumphs of the principles and policy of this party, we believe, can only Insure the prosperity of our Btate and the South. The grand conception of popular government, we conceive, haa been endangered. Centralization of power in the general govern men; baa reared its front and la assiduously at work. We shall support original principles and Eealou ily oppose their antagonisms. This line of conduct Is pledged to the full extent it can be followed. The journalist has a delicate duty to perform. All men are liable to err, not only in conduct, but also in judgment. Perfection is not expected by any general and intelligent reader. Therefore we invite a candid scrutiny and ask s generons verdict at the hand* ol tho public. With tbia brief outline as to what will be the future course of The Advertiser, our banner is flung to the breeze and a cordial support invited from all. Wm. D. Stone. The Senate has passed a bill, by a vote of 2j; yeas to 14 nays, to provide for paying off the public debt of the State. Tbe bill sets forth that from and after the first day of April next, the en tire proceeds and net income which tbe State hall, from time to time, derive from the Western and Atlantic Railroad, either as rental from the present lessees, or in whatever form it may be derived from said road, shall constitute a fund which shall be used exclusively for the purpose of paying off tbe public debt to be used as follows: •0 soon as tbe sum of 925,000 shall be paid into the Treasury of the State from said road after the first day of April next, it shall be the dnty of the State Treasurer, under the direction of the Gov ernor, to use said $20,000 In the purchase of the valid and recognized bonda of this State, which bonds shall be purchased at the lowest price at which they can be bad In tbe markets of the country ; aud as each successive $25,000 shall be paid Into tbe State Treasury from said road, it shall be used in the purchase of tbe legal bonds of this State, in like manner as is heretofore pre scribed for the use of the first $25,000. The Legislature is considering a bill to provide a school fund, which will greatly decrease the efficiency of the school law and embarrass the friends of education, unless general taxation is resorted to. The bill passed by the Senate pro vides that all proceeds from poll tax, liquor tax, and tax ou all classes of exhibitions, and all other sources heretofore included in the Public School Fund bill except tbe $150,000 from the earnings of the Western aud Atlantic Railroad, shall consti tute a Public School Fund. It further provides that as fast as the bonds of the State are cancelled by purchase as provided in the bill for paying of! the public debt, bonds of the same amount shall be issued due in 100 years, bearing 7 per cent, in terest, the prsceeds of which shall be appropria ted to educational purposes. The bill passed without much opposition. Thi World’s Washington correspondent says: The Senate Committee on Political Disabilities held a meeting at which Senator Hill, of Georgia, was present. It was agreed that the name of Thomas Hardeman, of Macon, Georgia, against whom objections was made by the United States District Attorney for having aided in some illegal transactions, should be taken from the bill, which Senator Hill has In charge. Several names were added to the bill. Among them those of Messrs. Crawford and Gartrell, of Georgia, ex-Congress men, and Good Bryan, formerly a lieutenant in the army; also, the name of ex-Governor Graham of North Carolina, and Messrs. Craig, Smith and Ash, of that State, all of whom, except the latter, were members of Congress. The Senate ot Georgia, by a decided majority has postponed the bill to decrease the number of Judlc a] circuit* in the State. The motion to indiflnitely postpone the measure was supported by Messrs. Anderson, Amow, Csin, Carter, De veanx, Erwin, Estes, Gilmore, Eillysr, Btbbee, Lester, Nicholls, Payne, Peavey, Reese, Simmons, Btesdman, Winn, Wofiord. Yeas 90. The nega tives were Messrs. Brinberry, Crawford, Cone, Hester, Hudson, Jervis, Kirkland, Knight, W. P. Mathew*, Mattox, McAfee. Nays 11. This settles the question for this session, unless quite a number of Senators make a complete change of buse The Southern Watchman thus refers to the appearance of Mr. Stephens in the Presa Conven tion : “ Among the new members—of whom there waa a large number—we were pleased to see the Bon. A. H. Stephens, who delivered a short and stirring address, on being invited to participate in onr counsels. It will be seen that any gentleman of good moral character—“ regardless of former condition’’—even though he may have been a member of Congress, United Statee Senator or even Vice-President—is, without difficulty, ad mitted to the ranks.’* The Telegraph and Messer ger of Bnndsy morning contradicts the many exagerated rumor* of the prevalence of small pox and meningetis in our city. Bat one case c f the former disease ex ists, and every precaution has been taken to pre vent its propagation. The latter, too, has been almost exclusively confined to the student* of the University, who have all left for their homes, save Mr. Daniel and those too ill to be removed. No new cases of thi* wofuAnalady are reported. The Secretary of State directs that so person be permitted to enter the building occupied by the Department of State, in whose family the smallpox exists, nor who have been directly ex posed to contagion, unless they produce a certifi cate from the board ot health that there is no danger of communicating the disease to those with whom they may come in contact. Oar Kelt United Stale* Senator. The eont eat for Senatonhip to over, and Geaend John B. Gordon baa bee* selected to represent the great and growing interest ol Georgia In the Sen ate of the United States, tor the six years succeed ing the 4th of March, 1873, when the term for which Hon. Joshua Hlil was elected will expire. The record of General Gordon is familiar to al 1. Asa soldier in the field—next as a candidate of the Conservative element of Georgia for gubernatorial honor*, be bore himself honorably. Of his sibse quent efforts to promote the public good, every general reader has been advised. That he will fully comprehend the fact that great interests have been intrusted to his judgment, we have no ques tion. The brilliant military career ol General Gordon brought him prominently forward, long before he became known as a political leader. Indeed, we may say the first caused the last. His services in the field made hit name “ familiar as a household word,” and the result was his election last week to represent Georgia in tbe United States Senate. His lsadicg opponent, Mr. Stephens, is one who his friends could only urge bad " done the State some service” in the past. His political wisdom and discretion was not questioned during the can vaas for the Senatonhip. Tbe purity of bis pri vate character to univenally admitted, aud that he did not succeed many will regret, while at the same time they will leel proud of the high char acter of his competitor. The people ot Georgia accord the meed of able and unselfish statesman ship to the recluse of “ Liberty Hall.” General Gordon has rendered them chivalrous and valuable services. Whether the decision made last week was the wisest, it to now useless to discuss. Tbe one Is destined to devote his energies in behalf of the public as has been indicated by the repre sentatives ef tbe people. We hope tbe other may soon be chosen to appear in another, yet none the lees honorable field—the House of Representatives of tbe United States. Of this we see signs in the political horizon. We believe the great pulse ol tbe country can be soonest reached through the popular branch of the people’s servants, aud sin cerely hope Mr. Stephen’s eminent qualifications and services may be unanimously recognised by the electors ot the Eighth District at the special Congressional election. 800 and Farming Bcbhavs.— Sunset Cox made a characteristic speech in the House of Represen tatives the other day In ridicule of the Depart ment of Agriculture, and particularly of the "Bureau of tbe Microscope,” which has been recently made an integral part thereof. Cox’s speech on entomology in politics convulsed the Honse with laughter, and he wound up by send ing to the Clerk a slip from tbe Philadelphia Sunday Dispatch, requesting the Clerk to read It tvrg • louly. The Clerk read ( conexpresiione) as follows: “We owe our tbAnk* to judge Kelley for the latest Pstent Office Reports. We already have sixteen hundred of these Interesting volumes in our little library, but they have been read and re read so many times that we know every page of them by heart. Tbia new volume came oppor tunely and gratefully on Christmas morning, and that night we gathered our little family aronnd the fire and read it through to them. The affect ing tale entitled ‘lmprovement in Monkey Wren ches,’ seemed to touch every heart, f laughter] aud when we came to the climax of tne little story about 'Reversible Pieboards,’ there was not a dry eye between the front door and the stable. [Laughter.] During the reading of the piteous narrative entitled “Gum Washers for Carriage Axles,* the whole family gave expression to bids terous emotion, and the hired girl was so much excited that she lost her presence of mind and went around to her mother’s inadvertently with six pounds of sngar and a butter kettle lull of flour, and eame home at midnight intoxicated. [Laughter.] W# can never sufficiently thank Judge Kelley for the Innocent enjoyment thus tarnished us. The memory of that hapoy evening will linger In onr minds very much longer than that hired girl evter lingers when she lights on a lot ol substance which she thicks will suit tbe constitution ot her aged parent.” [Great laughter.] Another terrible ocean disaster occurred on the 21st. The emigrant ship Worth Fleet, with 412 passengers, exclusive of her crew, collided with an unknown steamer. Only eighty-five per sons are known to be saved. Others are believed to be lost. The passengers of the North Fleet were awakened to suddenly by the collision that a fearful panic was the consequence, and they were wild with terror. So great was the confusion that the captain of the vessel was compelled to fire upon them in order to attract their attention and enforce obedience to his orders. It it believed that had the passengers obeyed the captain more of them would have been saved from a horrible death. In his evidence before the Credit Mobiler Com mittee, Oakes Ames shows that he has regained his memory and has recovered his note book. He is evidently bent on making a clean breast of all he knows concerning this matter and the Con gressmen connected therewith, and of having pocketed a few small dividends. He has virtually charged Vice President Schuyler Colfax with per jury. He also made sad havoc of the statement and explanation recently offered by Messrs. Kelly and Garfield, of the House, to the Committee. The Constitution gives us this comforting para graph, provided it be realised: We learn that a project is on foot for the general government to donate a hundred millioie of dol lars to the Southern States to par off tha State debts and remove the ravages of the war. The project is said to originate with the leading capi talists of the North. Mr. Phillip Riley, of Nottinghamshire, Eng land, after a three months’ inspection of the gold mines in Cherokee, has returneed to England with the intention of organising a company with a capital of $200,000, to develop the veins already opened, and to prospect for more. Colonel Jambs P. Simmons, of Gwinnett, has notified Governor Smith, that he is not an appli cant for the judgeship of the Western Circuit, end that he could not, at this time, accept the office if tendered him. He is impelled to this course from motives of a business character. The Georgia Home Insurance Company of Co lumbus held Us annual meeting on Monday. All the old officers were re-elected, and a dividend of six per cent, declared. H. G. Bean & Bro. represent this company in Forsyth. COL. Jack Bbowe in a card of January 32, to Hon. Phil. Cook, withdraws from all farther at tempt to contest the election of General Cook to a seat In the 48d, Congress from the third Con gressionsl District at Georgia. Mbs. Francis L. Bartow the mother of Gen eral Bartow, of Savannah, who was killed at the first battle of Manassas, died in Chattanooga on the 18th and waa burled in Macon on the 23d. She waa 80 yean of age. On ths 82d the Honse Committee on Way* and Means decided to indefinitely postpone all fnrther consideration of the bill refunding the cotton tax, which bill had been referred to this committee for their action. The Savannah Advertiser says the registry lists of the stesmen plying to and from that port, aa well as those of the principal hotels of the city Indicate that the period for the arrival of tourists t has began. Tax population of Georgia, by census, from 1790 to 1870: In 1790, a population of 82,548; in 1800, 132,086; ISIO, 252,433; 1820, 340,909; 1830, 516,- 823; 1840, e 91,292; 1850,906,186; 1860, 1,057,286. 1870, 1,184,109. The employea of the Atlanta Son have preseit ed to Mr. Stephens, their chief, an excellent port able writing desk, as an expression of their friendship and esteem. It la rumored that Columbus is to have another mammoth cotton factory daring the coming sum mer upon the old Palace Mills. During the Senatorial contest in the Legisla ture the name of Gov. Smith was placed In nomi nation bat wh promptly withdrawn by his direc tion. The widow of the late Wm. C.

Gordon, Senator elect, tendered him a coirpiimtntary serenade, la Atlanta The crowd gathered at the Kimball Bouse was large and enthusiastic. In response to the call Gen. Gordon appeared and addressed those present as follows. Fellow Citizens: This occasion calls for the profonndest expression of mygraiitnde, and I feel scarcely able to give adequate expression to the feelings that this unexpected and gratifying occa sion arouses in my bea’t. You have honored me with yenr confidence, and have chosen me to represent Georgia In the Senate ot the United States, the bulwark of the Republic, where the expression ot the will ot a free people is likely to be warped, and the dignity ; and wisdom of tbe Republic holds its firmest : sway. But the contest for this most honorable position : in the retrospect, is not altogether free frum pain. 1 found my name in competition with that ot Hon. Alexander H. Stephens, justly called the " Great Commoner;” a name Illustrious, a name fa mil iar to us and the country, and ieverberated tor the last 40 yers. And such years ! Forty years cl unswerving devotion to the rights of the peo ple. An ordeal ot principle, of unflinching pa triotism that will be venerated as long as time lasts—a precious legacy o posterity forever 1 I also came in contact, during the earnest, w.th the name of tue Hon. B. H. Hill, my illustrious friend, of whom it is enough to say that he is the author ot the world famous Notes on the Situa tion, the begle notes of liberaty, which flisl sounded the alarm to onr countrymen, and ! aroused them irom their lethargy, to battle lor their rights and maintain the dignity ot constitu tional independence, a noble deed which our countrymen will not forget. I also came iD con tact with my generous Learted and noble friend, Col. Fielder, a mau wnom the whole people love and reupect, and wnose life is devoted to the wel fare an. progress ot onr dear old commonw alth. Again thanking you, I feei compelled to to declare that I have not sought to depreciate the intellect or fair fame of my competitors; had I done so the result would not have given pleasure to my heart. I feel the responsibility of the trust imposed upon me by my people, but calmly, hopetully accept the great’ trust given into my keeping, With the confident hope that the duties thus im posed will be performed to the best ot my ability, aud that my course, in tbe sphere in wnicb yonr will haa placed me, will be such as not to impair tbe confidence you have given me in the past. In conclusion, fellow citizens, allow me again to express my sincerest thanks. S. F. WILDER, V. N. WILDER. S. F. WILDER & SON, Bin I’D mum MANUFACTURERS. FORSYTH, ....
