Notice.— All the newspapers and periodicals, daiiy, tri weekly, semi-weekly, weekly, monthly and quarterly, In the United States, are ed to publish the above until a satisfactory an ewer is received—then present tlieir account for payment. —Xashuille Banner. To the Planters. — Under this head the follow ing article is published In the Augusta Chronicle, it is from the pen ot one ol the incit virtuous and distinguished oi Georgia’s citizens : Certain letter writers, newspaper correspondents and lecturers, who have constituted themselves special guardians ot the planters of Georgia, have recent y been flooding the State with advice, which is equally barren ot financial w;s.don: and sound morality. Cue says hold your cotton for higher price's—another, keep your cotton until your fac tors agree to give you twenty cents per piound: tLe price will go up to that point, and you are en titled to it. Now, n tli. case of a planter who bas produced his cotton rolely upon his own rcscources this poliev nay do well enough. He has the moral and legal rH’ht to hold and take the risk. But what propot ion of all t; e i.t. i> ;r the State ate la this condition? Do the sage advisers of the planters, above alluded *.•.•, know that a large roa : ty oi the plantei ■ been enabled to make these advances by lost:? from the banks, aud that the advances to planters and loans to actors ma ture generally on or about the Ist of November ? Do they know that unless the planter meets his obligation to his tactor the latter cannot meet his obligation to the ba it:*? I)o they know that unless the factors obliga tions are properly met they, the banks, will be ut terly powerle s to provide currency to move the cotton ? Do they know from such a state ot thing** most eeesaa j gnat it nin com merce sud paralysis of industrial pursuits? If they do not kuow these things let them go back to school to learn something of the course ot busi ness in this country—ot the natural dependence aud connection of different industrial pursuits— before they undertake the role of teachers. If they know them, let them return to the Sunday school and learn something of the obligation of promises, ol the maintenance of personal integrity, before they assume the sacred office of keepers of other men’s consciences. Verily, verily, one knows not which most to admire, the financial wisdom or the moral probity of these noisy advisers. Not a word to the honest, clear sighted planters who have sought aid at commercial points to make their crops. When you borrowed money from your factors and gave your notes payable on the first of November, or on some later day, did you make it a condition of prompt payment that yon should get ten cents or stipulated price for vour cotton ? If yon did EOt, have you the legal or moral right when pay day comes, without the factors consent, to add ilr.s condition to your contract made six, or eight, or ten months before ? Will you burden your consciences with such a flagrant breach ot faith upon the chance (perhaps fallacious at last) cf getting five cent" more per pound for your cotton. To do so would be to falsify the estimate of personal ihtegrity upon which you procured the advance. Those who so advise you . tlieve more In the *'almighty dollar'' hoarded ca earth than in *• treasure laid up in Heaven, where neither moth nor rust doth corrupt, and where th.eves do not break through nor steal.” It the writer prop erly understands the character ot the p,anlers ot Georgia, as a class, they will throw such immoral councils to the winds, and show themselves enti tled to the proud boast, 44 my record is my bond.” It there be a few ,'aud I hope there are none) Inclined to adopt the advice, I have stiu another question lor them, -re you very sure that asy probable increase of price you may get by break ing faith with your factors will enable you unaid ed to make the next crop? If you break the faith upon which you got belt' to make this, whence do you expieet to get help for the ntxt? Honesty It not only itself a jewel beyond price, bn. it is the best policy. I you have failed, owing to ad verse ci: cumstances, to meet your obligations, pay what you c n and your factors and all good m ;a will •ympiihlxr with you and help you again. But it >c u speculate upoa broken prom - -s l and mined factors, you must meet a fearful reckoning. Face the Future. To eft in idlenesa and brood OTer ue misfor tunes of the psst is both foolich and unwise. The past is beyond recall. As well might you try to restore the dried up mummy to life and beauty as to live over the past and correct tbe mistakes, mend the errors and bind up the wounds made.' It is gone, buried in the deep bosom of tbe ocean of time, beyond the hope or power of resurrection, and is as worthless as a day-dream of fancy, ex cept as an example for the present and future. To back into the future with your face towards the past is to -tumble through life and repeat the er rors thet experience should haTe taught yon to avoid. Let the past go, to waste idly time wish lng its re.ura is to L’.md yourself to the realities of the present and fit* you for nothing but a hope less wanderer in the future. Look ahead ! If you have seen trouble, turn your back upon it and press forward, determined to deserve and win suc cess. Some people never recover from a misfor tune, once down they remain so forever. They make no effort to recuperate or gain the high po sition that eveiy creature, who is not an idiot, fool, or knave is entitled to. Tney prefer to keep down, and appear to enjoy a 6ecret and strange satistaction In telling others what they have been, and what they might, have been had good fortune smiled upon them. 44 Every man is the architect of bis own dtstiny.” Olhets 6hake eff trouble as a duck would the- water. It has no other effect than to make them a trifle wiser. Yon can’t keep them do.vn, knock them off their feet, and they are up and go ahead as bravely as if nothing bad happened. Ail they atk is health and strength. Their touiage is equal to every emergency. Like tbe blooded rccr, though distanced at the start they never yield until tfiej homestind is gained. In a word, thc-y do their beat under all circum stances, and in dci: g this generally do well. It is bad enough lor an old man, who haR put forth his strength and failed, to become discouragtd and drit. Into the ratl ing current of late with no eff rt to stem it; but ior a young man, or one in h.s prime, who has brain and muscle in periect order, to give up and drift with a tide that he could easily overcome, 1- without the shadow of an excuse. \\ hat ft you have lost money, or failed in bn. im sa ? t ,u these tr fiir.g troubhs excuse idleness when extra exertion is required? Yesterday has fled !iom your reach; to-day is yours; to-morrow may be full of sunshine to yoar darkened hope . Let the pisi, go; rtar a tombstone over it i! you please, Out cease to dwell over its grave The world is before you ; ripened fields awaits your labor ; you may u trieve all and win even more than you had. The little vexations of tile are but the axe-strokes that chip and de face the young oak, end fail to retard its growth, Nature Leals the wound and the young tree grows to its fu 1 proportion. So the vital elements of man’s life, it hope remains uncrushed, will heal the wounds of tbe past, and out cf the failure of yesterday weave ti e glorious triumphs of to-day cr to morrow. ——♦*■ Compensation for Slave?,—Hon. K M. T. Hunter claims that that part of hia speech touch ing compensation for slaves has been misunder stood and misrepresented. He explains thus: Why not deposit the amount of $400,000,000, mentioned by Mr. Lincoln upon the principal of the deposit act, upon which the surplus revenue was deposited with the States ? L>ke that, let the deposit be made without iuterest. and to be recalled only on the same contingencies. When this is done let the State do justice amongst the individual shareholders. What it the General Gov ernment should fail to have it restored? The act would only be one of justice to these who were unjustly aud unconstitutionallyj'despoiled. If it were not returned,"no injustice 'would be done, for those who would retain it were justly entitled to it. Nor could it be well opposed on constitu tional grounds. The original spoliation without compensation was unjust and unconstitutional; this use of‘the national revenue would serve to remedy and undo that original wrong, so far as Justice is concerned. The whole action ol the Gen eral Government in regard Jto slavery was extra constitutional, antt-whcre something extra consti tutional was necessary to be done to injustice in that action, it will not do to plead the Constitution in bar of that remedy if it has been no obstacle to the original wrong. Upon the val uation of §400,009,000 for the entire slave proper ty ot the country the share of Virginia would be between forty aud fifty million*. # n # * * Let the General Government distribute this sum amongst the States according to the number of negroes emancipated within their borders, and let the Stales distribute their quota amongst the de spoiled slave-holders. The first impression was that Mr. Hunter pro posed io secure compensation by an amendment to the Constitution. His present idea seems to be a llmk oavimi-nt outside of’that horribly bat tered instrument. Meanwhile, the Cincinnati Commercial proceeds to make capital against the Democratic party out of Mr. Hunter’s utterance. It says : Of course, if slavery aud slaveholders could not be b’atned for the war, the first thing that could be done upon the return of the Democracy to power is to pay our breiheron for tbe property in man they lost by reason of violence. Col. Allen sbou and uot forget in lii3 annual ’message if he would strike a chord that would sound through the land. Once more: Our distinguished old friend ex-S scalar Hunter, of Virginia, is living, and occasionally fails to preserve silence. One o ' the last times he opened hi* mouth in public he was very sad because the Southern people had been robbed of their slaves during the war, and it was his judgment that'it is a great shams they should not be paid lour hun dred millions of dollars, at least. Perhaps it is a great Democratic principle to pay four or five hundred millions of dollars for the emancipated -laves of our Southern bretheren. Some light on the subject may be obtained when our Democrat ic General Assembly meets, y ‘ Aud finally . A little resolution '.adopted by the Democratic General Assembly of Ohio this winter, demand ing that enough greenbacks be printed to pay over to our Southern bretheren who lost slaves during the nuhappy war five hundred millions of dollar?, would go a great way. Asa measure of conciliation it'might be well for our revitalized Democracy to try it. Definition of doctrine is demanded, and we hope the High Priests of the New Dispensation will not be backward in declar ing their great principles. The Richmond Dispatch appears to apprehend that Mr. Hunter’s discussion ot this subject will hurt the parry. Well, if the party cannot stand the ventilation of a subject well worthy of con sideration; and if such sneers of the enemy can create havoc in the ranks of the faithful, Democ racy had better dissolve. It was declared that Jeff Davis’ speech would kill Allen in Ohio, but it did not do anything of the sort. If Mr. Hunter’s trank utterance has no more effect, there is really no cause for undue rattling of raw-heads and dry bones. —.1 ufiueta Constitutionalist. A correspondent Of the Union and Recorder, over the signature ol Cherokee, has the following to say in regard to moving the capital from Atlanta: Asa citizen and tax-payer of this State, I wish to entsr my protest against the Capital remaining in Allan's, for more reasons than one. It was re moved troin your city to Atlanta by fraud, which Las cost the State thousands of dollars, and if it remains there will cost many thousands more an nually than it would if it were iQ Miiledgeville We have a Capital building and aii other necessa ry bandings, and they are in good repair, in your city. The expenses c i tbe Legislature in Milledge ville will L-c much less than in Atlanta. Yoar so ciety is much b. t er and is much more [central. If ihe question shomd ever come before the peo ple again on it? own merits, and property under stood, North Georgia would vote for MiliedgeTille. This may appear sirac.e to some who have not mired wit a the people o! North Georgia as much as I have. I know what I say to be so. i hope a convention of the. citizens, one or more j trom each county in the State, will hold a meet ing and take steps to bring this thing fairly and squarely belore the tax-payers of the State. Can’t this be done?-I will never vote for a man it I know t who is in favor ot the Capital remain ing where it is. Stat Laws. —Tbe Gaiusville Eagle, contains a sensible article on the above subject. It would scan that the experience of both debtor* and creditors, forthe last ten or twelve vears,[would be sufficient to array them against its adoption. Says the Eagle: The derangement of business caused by the late panic, has induced certain per sons in different part* of the 'country ,to again raise their voices for a stay law. They argue that the people are unable to pay their debts because cotton does not command its value. We are op posed to any more stay laws. We are reaping now a harvest of bankruptcy and ruin, brought about by suspension of laws requiring men to meet their honest obligations at maturity. Stop the collection of a debt against a man lor a year, and he wants it two years ; stop it two years, and he gets to thinking it ought to be repudiated. We are willing to let by-gones be by-gone*, but from this time forward never want to*ee the collection ol honest debts suspended for one moment. Few er men have been known to break and become bankrupted and ruined by being required to meet their obligations at maturity than there are on turning loose the law after a suspension and an accumulation of interest lor five or ten years. Stay laws only have the effect to lure men into dishonest devices to avoid honest obligations ; they are of no benefit to the people, and we nev er want to see oar statue books disgraced with another.
