I’riday Moruing, March 7 ,1870,
Col. Bobuel Burton, of the McVille
South Georgian, is tho foreman of a
minstrel show.
A Boston man proposes to start a
paper at Jerusalem. John Ch r istian
should be consulted in the matter.
Women ever have been, and ever
will bo, failures in politics. They
cannot hit a spittoon if their lives de
pended on it.
We know now where all the plain
women como from. Elberton has
what the Gazette calls a “plaining
mill.” They have been run through
it.
Bro. Stafford, of the Progress, is
informed that wo have not “cut his
acquaintance.’’ This is an age of
progress, and we cannot afford to be
behind the times.
Wo would like for Shivers, of the
Warrenton Clipper, to have less ad
vertising or enlarge his paper. We
get too much commercial information
and too little Shivers.
Uncle Hancock, of the Americus
Republican, has been thrown into a
cold perspiration by John Christian,
'■''who’threatens to
paper in our uncle’s bailiwick.
It is prOpanie that Hon. Henry W.
Hilliard, minister to Brazil, will be
recalled at an early day. No causo
for it except to make room for some
one else whom Hayes likes better.
Col. Seneca B. Coekleburr, of the
Fort Valley Mirror, is doing most of
his editorial work on a bermuda
grass farm. Tho Mirror docs not re
ilect local affairs as it was wont to
do.
We have not all tho volumes handy
but we do not remember that tho
whole encyclopedia of abuse to which
Dr. Felton was subjected in ail his
campaigns contained any such words
as “magnificent blatherskite.”
The delectable Dogberry who
started the report that Gov. Colquitt
was snubbed by the agricultural con
vention at Havvkinsville, has had the
diluted potash dashed back at him
most liberally. Good enough for
him.
Sure enough, Bryant has made a
raise of $3,000 with which to revivify
the republican party in Georgia, and
a promise of more if the results justi
fy it. The results will depend on the
encouragement ho receives from the
independents.
The man who first accused us of
being connected with the Macon
Ijtldapr i~
currency to the base slandor, can get
a regular old-fashioned two-story
thrashing by stopping up here for a
few minutes.
Billy McGarrahau, a double-fisted
Irishman, took offense at something
Donn Piatt said about him in the
Capital, and went for Donn in a lively
manner in the lobby of the senate,
the other day. It is said tho editor
was used up pretty badly.
The spring-time is upon us, and
our garden so engrosses our atten
tion that we have little time to devote
to Sirs. Felton’s party. Hence we
shall “let ’er rip,” save when some
unusually vicious twist of tho lady’s
ablocrinoline seems to demand atten
tion.
Old ducle Nebo Tift felt called
upon lately to plunge into an ink
stand up to his eyes, and sail into
Wash Goldsmith on the wild land
question. Uncle Nelso should cer
tainly take something for this sort of
brash beforo it breaks out in a worse
form.
Massachusetts sets hersoif up as
quite a God and morality spot of
space, but it was in a Massachusetts
town that the congregation withheld
S2OO from a minister’s salary because
he had made that amount by making
shoes and digging clams. Tho “no
hell’’ theory is weakened very much
by this sort of thing.
Old Zacli Chandler may bo very
unanimous in the opinion that “every
man, woman and child in the world
believes Jell'. Davis a double-dyed
traitor,” but they are certainly
equally lirm in the knowledge that
old Zach. is a villian so deeply
steeped in iniquity that ho would
make a royal arch-angel in the court
of his infernal majesty, the devil.
Sweet Bonny Bussell, of the Bain
bridge Democrat, may possess his
white soul in patience. Nobody is
going to harm Blocker. He is too
high to climb, and besides, the edito
rial as well as all other circuses must
needs have its clown. If Benny has
any ambition for promotion, we will
get Grubb to resign tne position, and
have him elected ring-master at the
next meeting.
■+ _ •
Col. Bailie Billie Hanleitor, of the
Griffin Sun, is a regular old two story
argutier, and of course endorses Mrs.
Felton's recent course in his most
able and perspicuous vernacular. We
would like, however, for him to drop
down into commonplace composition
long enough to tell us what he thinks
of a lady so far ignoring the gentle
modesty of her sex as to allude to a
United States senator as “a magnifi
cent senatorial bl itherskite.”
“A Mnsnfftrent Senatorial
Blatherskite.”
It is not uncommon for people who
get out of tamper to sav ugly things,
indeed, it is rarely the case that men
or women suffer themselves to take
on an undue amount of bile and start
off on a headlong gallop down the
inclined plane of passion, without
somewhere on the route running
against a eharp angle of sin, and
wounding not only others, but them
selves as well.
Mrs Felton is no exception to the
general rule which we have laid
down, and when she suffered her ire
to rise, suffered herself to seize a
gray goose quill in her shapely lin
gers, suffered said quill to bathe it
self in ink, and lay off and map out
on paper the size, shape and general
characteristics of her heated resent
ment, it is no wonder that she fell
into the common error.
She allu 3es to Senator Gordon as
a “magnificent senatorial blather
skite.” In this, as nearly as we can
get at the meaning of the term, she
is very far away from the parallel
line of perspicuous fact. Uncle Noah
Webster, in the honesty of his soul,
and woting little of what would be
the necessities of modern politics,
forgot to put the word in his diction
ary ; hence, we are forced to draw on
ft he fruitful fields of imagination, for
its meaning, and the f. f.s aforesaid
impress us with, the idea that it is
something very awful.
To be a blatherskite, it seems to
us, implies a necessity for fur, claws,
eyes with a brassy circle arcuDd the
pupils; and a very large amount of
general and unreserved pure cussed
ness. To be a blatherskite is to be
something very ugly, very vicious,
and very unwrong upon general
principles.
If then it is so terrible to be a
blatherskite, what must it be to boa
“senatorial blatherskite ?” As the
senator is raised above the dignity of
the mere representative, so must a
senatorial blatherskite be above and
beyond the mere journeyman in the
lower walks ofblatherskitedom. How
horrible must it bs.
But wo multiply as we go on. If
a blatherskite is bad, a “senatorial
blatherskite” is worse; and when in
the course of human events wo come
in the way of a “magnificent senato
rial blatherskite,” terrible indeed is
tho ordeal we are called upon to en
counter ! Shades of those who love
us and have gone before, look down
in pity upon this oppressed people,
owned, controlled and paying tribute
to a race of magnificent senatorial,
independent, and female blather
skites !
The Spirit that Moves
North, especially those in congress,
is one of intense and bitter hatred of
tho South; and their chief delight is
to show this malice and accompany
it with on all occasions that
offer the opportunity. Such an op
portunity occurred the other day,
when the bid making appropriations
to pay the arrears of pensions was
reconsidered in the senate. Hoar,
of Massachusetts, burning with a de
sire to hurl a parting shot at the
South, moved to amend the bill by
excluding Hon. Jefferson Davis from
its benefits. He urged his amend
ment in a speech which reeked with
hatred and insulting allusions to Mr.
Davis, and, through him, to the whole
people of our section. He was sec
ond*, and and abetted by Biaine and
Chandler, tho latter going so far as
to say that “every man, woman and
child in the world believes Jeff Davis
to boa doubly-dyed traitor.” These
attacks on a man whom they knew
could not make a reply, shows the
cowardice as well as the villiany of
his detractors. We are glad to know?
however, that Mr. Davis and the
South had worthy champions pres
ent, in the persons of senators La
mar, Thurman, Coke and others,
who hurled back the foul calumnies
of these blatant demagogues, and
taught them that thrusts at their
chosen leaders were thrusts at the
sacred honor of the Southern people,
which would be resented with the
scorn which they deserve. As to Mr.
Davis himself, we are sure he cares
nothing for a pension from the gov
ernment, although he made as gal
lant a soldier as fought in the Mexi
can war. Ho has not asked for a
pension, nor will he. More than this:
He can receive ail the insults and
calumnies that may be hurled against
him from radical sources, and stand
up in his grandeur and dignity and
be tho gentleman, soldier, statesman
and patriot still.
It is evident that reconciliation
will never be an established fact —
that the bloody chasm will not be
entirely bridged, until this o’d stock
of radical leaders and bloody-shirt
wavers have gone to meet their
father, the devil.
Congress passed through the usual
throes of adjournment on the 4th
and went out without completing its
business. The senate had a slight
row before they adjourned but the
house got through very quietly and
with dignity. The executive, legis
lative and judicial appropriation
bills, besides a f-w others failed of
passage which made an extra session
necessary. President Hayes issued
his proclamation at once calling the
extra session for the 18th of this
month.
Hayes and the Heathen Chi
nee, .
The bill restricting Chinese immi
gration, bad passed both houses of
Congress, and only lacked the signa
ture of the President to become a
law, bat Mr Hayes couldn’t see it
and has vetoed the bill. In doing so
he reviews the sth and Gth Articles
of the Burlingame treaty, argues
that they are of great advantage for
the protection of our citizens in CA
na and our commerce with that Em
pire, and takes the ground also, that
the abrogation of these two articles
would be the abrogation of the whole
treaty. That the power to modiT a
treaty does not rest in Congress, but
in the President and Senate; that al
though Congress has a Constitution
al authority to abrogate an entire
treaty, it has never been exercised,
except in abrogating the treaty with
France, in 1798, for grave cause, and
that only grave circumstances justify
its exercise; that there is no pres;-
ing necessity for more speedy actio,
on the subject of Chinese immigra
tion than can be reached by ordina
ry diplomatic negotiations; that abro
gation of the treaty articles by this
bill would endanger important inter
ests, and that it would be a breach o:
faith by the nation. He expressoi .a
sense of the of the situa
tion on the Pacific coast resulting
from the present working of Ch.nese
immigration, and said it deserves the
serious attention of the whole coun
try, and a Solicitous interest on the
part of Congress and the Executive,
but for the reasons above indicated he
cannot approve the present bill, and
returns it to the House of Reprenta
lives with tho expression of belief
that in reconsidering it Congress will
maintain tho public honor.
Congress refused to pass the mea
sure over the veto of the President,
and the matter is settled for iff
present. California is indignant at.
this action of Mr. Hayes and as soon
as the news reached Bullister, San
Benito County, the wrath of the peo
ple was manifested by the burning
of the great Fraud in effigy. This
may have the effect of securing Cali
fornia to the Democrats.
Tlie Infamy of 1876.
The Potter committee closed it.s |
labors last week and the chairman
submitted his report. It reviews
the whole history of the grea' fronds
by which Hayes was seated ax. ' he
people cheated out of their choice
for president It deals in no Ting
but plain, unvarnished facts, : .1
those too, which have been
established on unquestioned evi
dence. It dismisses entirely
the testimony of such witnesses as
Anderson, Jenks, Mrs. Jenks, Web_r,
.et id omne gawus. The report is ci
vided iuto three parts, the first em
bracing the frauds in Florida, tho
second, those in Louisiana and me
third the forged electoral certificates.
Going over the whole field mid mass
ing all the details its puts in
the facts of the greatest iroiui ever
perpetrated on a free people. It
shows up the true inwardness of iil
the dark and irregular Workings of
the _ returning boards, the electoral
commission and the republics ; vis
iting statesmen. It proves II .• ’
complicity in ail these frauds mid
recites the fact that every one en
gaged in them has been rewiuded
with office. The, report is long and
voluminous. We cannot give any
thing like a synopsis of it, but can
can merely remark that it presents
beforo the country in all the black
ness of its dark and horrid Villiany
the crime which stole tho presidency
and which has besmirched the char
acter and reputation of almost every
republican actor in it.
Of course, we do not look for this
great fraud to be remedied by the
turning out of the criminals from
the places which they unlawfully oc
cupy, but we are glad to know that
the country has the whole matter in
so succinct and unmistakable a form
as to be able to know every actor in
the vile business and give the truth
to history.
It is said that the awful words em
ployed by senator Burnside, in reply
ing to senator Conkiing, were as fol
lows : “I say to the senate and to the
sinator from New York, with whom
I have served on committees for £ v'
eral years, that I speak from person"
ai knowledge when I say that I know
of no one who can, with so much
readiness and aptness, equivocate
and falsify matters to suit his view;-,
as the senator from New York.

business. Meanwhile, wo would like

The only argument used by the re
publican organs against Tilden is, that
the old man has “bar’ls” of money,
some of which he uses for advancing
his political interests. Tiiden, if ile
uses money, uses his own, while the
republican party uses the people’s mon
ey to bully voters, stop the mouths of
returning board thieves, imprison inno
cent persons, and falsify the verdict
of the people. As between Tilden’s
“bar’ls” and the millions stolen by the
republican leaders, Tilden has decidedly
the best of it.
Solid for His Party,
Washington Post.
Senator Hill had opposed in caucus
the measure to repeal the election laws,
etc., and the radicals counted on him
to. vote with them in this matter. Be
ing interviewed as to his position he
thus clearly Refined it: “In reply to all
criticisms, and to satisfy the people of the
south as to my attitude regarding the
proposition to repeal the election laws,
etc., I have this to say, first, that in tho
beginning I doubted the necessity of
taking this step at this time. Second,
I questioned the expediency of taking
it in this manner. I said so in caucus.
That was an expression of indiyidua
judgment. Now I am called upon to 1
act. I therefore say that, whatever
may have been or may be my views as
to the expediency, policy or necessity
of this step, the action of the demo
cratic party in the house has imposed
upon democrats in the senate the high
er duty of preserving an unbroken
party front. I therefore stand with the
democrats of the house and shall do so
to the bitter end if necessary. 8o will
and so ought every democrat in the
senate, irrespective of what his personal
judgment may he or may have been.
In conclusion, I have to say, once for
all, that whenever the democratic party
in congress takes issue with the radical
party on any measure affecting the
form or the fact of our government as
this question does, I shall act with the
democratic party, expedient or inexpe
dient, politic or impolitic, confident
that whatever is opposed by the radical
party under its present leadership must
inevitably turn- out in the end to be
wise, just and salutary.” The above
may be called Ben’s platform. And
the last sentence of it is good enough
for a standing plank in democratic
platforms.
