the herald. by JOHN K. SPENCE, ' GREENSBORO, GA : SATURDAY MORNING, : : : AUG. 24 18C7 From the Covington Enterprise, * MODERATION. Never since the organization of the system of civilized governments among men, hns there been a time when the community might differ on matters of propriety and policy more hon estly than at present. And it should be re membered by all that the various views of different individuals is a natural consequence of their different mental organization and the peculiar point of view from which each one may regard the momentous issues which in volve the immediate weal or vroo of all alike. In such a crisis it is peculiarly requisite that all should study the things which make for peace; and while it’is eminently right and proper to discuss tho subject freely, in so doing everything liko acrimonious recrimination should be avoided. As our position has been clearly and unequivocally stated and those who read our paper know that we have ever advo cated without reserve tho constitutional doc trine of State sovereignty, it will lmrdly be charged that we aro not devoted to tho rights of the people, when we counsel moderation in all such discussions. In a state of affairs *o entirely without precedent ns that which now exists in our country it is not to he expec ted that unanimity will provail over tho wholo eountry or even in any section. But tho fact that this disagreement is manifested by no means involves the conclusion that any of the parties are dishonest in their expressions or even thutnny are influenced by improper con sideration in the formation of their opinions. On all questions involving important and un tried points of public policy there hns always been and will ever ho gravo differences in the sentiments of the people, and the fact that one differs from another implies no moro improper motives on one side than the other. The policy we have advocated from tho be ginning still seems to us the most advisable in tho present emergency. That is to register tnd vole Against a Convention, at the same time selecting the very best and most available men for the Convention if it should he held. In advocating this course it is only claimed that it appears to us tho choico of evils allowed us by the authorities at Washington. If, as is urged by seme advocates of an immediate con vention, the course we propose will he construed as factious oppostion to reconstruction, it was cruel mockery to pretend to submit tho matter to the vote of the people ; while the responsi bility of over-riding tho decision of tho people will rest not with us hut with those who have dared to assume it. It is argued by somo that it is a foregone conclusion that the convention will ho held, nnd therefore in their opinion it is best to vote for it & order to secure the reception of our votes for the men of our choico for members of eonmnSv.. t* tl ( ;« our reefy is thatilhe conductors™ the elections cannot->.»f.w «*»ti 1 the ballots are counted out whether a man votes for or against a convention, unless it bo as sumed that they will fraudulently suppress such votes ns are distasteful to them, in which event, as there will be no fair election, wo prefer to take no part in tho mockery of the proceedings. General Orders No. 53. The commanding General of this District by liis order No. 53, carries out tlio doctrine of radicalism to its legitimate consequences. The great Anglo-Saxon right of trial byja jury of his peers, is thus wrested from the white people of three of the States represented by the stars which glitter on the national (lag of the Union, by the simple word of the one man who holds the absolute control of this section in his hands. Whatever fanatical abstractionists may claim as the possible status which tho negroes may attain by cultivation and education, no ono in the exercise of tho sense with which ho was born,for a moment supposes that they are now the equals of educated white men. Or, if that is claimed, it must nccessarilly follow that they have attained a higher development men tally, under the care of their late masters than Ims ever been done by any of their race under other circumstances, during five thousand years of recorded time. Assuming that the usurped authority of a remnant of tho members of Con gress, has reversed the order of nature and equalized races between whom the Creator made a difference as marked mentally as it is physically, this order entrusts tho late slaves with the momentous responsibility of deciding upon questions involving even tho lives of their late masters. And they are to be judges of tlie law as well as the testimony. This ex traordinary order which alone is sufficient to secure its author a place in history, is sub joined. Grand and Petit Jurors and all other Jurors fi r the trial ot cases civil or criminal or for the administration of law in the States of Georgia, A'ahama and Florida, will hereafter be taken exclusively from the lists of voters without dis criminntion registered bv Bonrda of Registra tion under the Acts of Congress of the United States, known as the Reconstruction Acts. Sheriffs and all other officers whose duty it is to summon and empannel Jurors, will require each Juror to make oath that ho is duly regis tered as above indicated, specifying Precinct and Countv in which he was registered, which affidavit will be placed on the official files of the Oourt. By command of Brevet Major General Pope. G. K. SANDERSON, Capt. 33d U. S. luft’y A. A. A. G. It may be none of our Dusiness, but wc sym pathise with civil officers in the perplexity which must embarrass their proceedings under this order. The continuance of the authority of civil law seems to be implied by the use of the civil term “jurors,” and yet the order con flicts directly with the foundation of all the civil laws in existence in this section, and abrogates the old common law of England which was tho basis of the whole structure of our government. Would a whrtc man in New York or Ohio be willing to be tried for his life before a jury of ne groes who could act read the testimony in the case i Yet, by this order thou must be no die* crimination against such jurors here if they liuvo registered as voters by making their mark. Here tofore it hns been customary to discriminate in favor of intelligence even among the white peo ple. in the selection of juries. Will the General please consider that we have not a Fisher to preside in every county court. From the Covington Enterprise. Mb. Editor 1 como seeking such informa tion as may lend to beneficial and practical results. The name Enterprise is significant. The quality it expresses, associated with oth ers, would soon relieve our distresses nnd dif fuse prosperity and happiness among us again. You, Mr. Editor, have said and done much, for which overy patriot should thank you. But if you have more light, on the subject I present, wo want to see it. If I hare any, I want to show it, not for personal gratification, but for public good. There aro evils, great and griev ous ones, most of them brought on by tho war, hut some independent of it. These I propose to speak of, and enquire for a remedy. It is said, that in law there is no right without a remedy. S< cially and morally, is the maxim true. Politically it seems untrue, up to tho present time. But with polities, now, I have nothing to do or say. Mr. Editor, we are an impoverished people, hut don’t seem to know it. We talk about it knowingly, hut don’t resort to the only availa ble correctivo. I havo often been delighted with tiic sage talk, nnd sober views of many men, hut when I see how they do, and what they permit others, under their control to do, I conclude their talk, liko doctors’ doses, is in tended for others, and not for themselves. Who curtails his expenses sufficiently to suit his changed circumstances, cither in servant hire, sumptuous tables, costly apparel, or otherwise? Who lounges less, or indulges less now, in all the enjoyments that former wealth permitted ? Whose hand is hardened by labwr, and head sobered by adversity ? Who wears a cheaper coat, and wears it longer, because he is redu ced ? Who spends less, if credit, or his pit tance of remaining capital permits expenditure? At * we not poorer than at the close of the war ? Are we not getting poorer every day? Ex ceptions there nmy he, but the rule is true as to tho people et large. Now must not ruin, irretrievable ruin, he our portion, if this state of tilings continues ? Don’t let us close our eyes to the fact because it is painful to see it, hut like the skillful surgeon, probe the wound, that we ntay more effectually cure it. Well, wlmt are the remedies ? First have the courage to know and admit that we arc poor. It is hard to cure a lunatic who thinks lie is sane. The fact of our poverty, known, admitted, and acted on, achieves all. But this requires move courage, than to storm a battery. Some who did the latter, fail in the former; and why? because patriotism nnd a righteous cause led them to the one, and public example, and other pernicious influences drive from the other, Now w ho among tho young men, will summon courage to harden his hands, nnd bronze his face with honest toil, nnd husband his outlays with wise frugality, that he may set an example to ofillers, of imitation.'ait-4 thus o ! 1 comfort, prosperity nnd happiness inmates .f his house for after life ? It is not only morally wrong, but does it not often exoite unpleasant suspicions, for any one to live beyond his means? A young man’s mind must bo badly stored, nnd hopeless of improvement, whose chief pleasuro is found in decorating his per son, or idle listlessness. And arc young womon much more innocent, who indulge in the same treacherous vanities? Now if the favored fevt’ who have much money, \vould consider what a position of usefulness they occupy, and then do as tho wealthy only can do, they would by example, make industry, frugality, plainness, nnd neatness fashionable, then the less favored, could follow without that blemish of character, which sometimes attaches to an opposite course, for the tongue of scandal is ever ready to assail those who dress more expensively nnd gaudily than their visible means justify, though they be of vestal purity. So for the sake of comfort, example, good name, nnd future repose, let us change our habits and suit them to our circum stances. Let tho wealthy do thomsclves the credit and honor of setting the example, let the poor favor and follow it; otherwise moral des olation must follow pecuniaty ruin, Fathers and friends who feed and provide for us must die, many of them found to bo bankrupt, not until after death. Tho iin providence, and (so called) innocent indulgences allowed their children, unfit them for tho struggle of life ; want presses, gilded baits aro presented, hope of former plenty invites acceptance, virtue trembles in the balaneo, ar.d all may be lost. It is no discredit to labor, but not less hon orable than safe to do so. Who are they that meet, bear, and repair losses best, since our overwhelming disaster? Are they not those who have been used to toil, in some of its forms ? Men who from small beginnings made large estates, which being lost, they are “up and at it” again, and will succeed again. Labor is an honorable necessity, and frugality a virtue.— Let such precepts be riveted by example on the minds and habits of tho rising generation, and they will prove a richer, and more enduring heritage than gold without them. CINCIXNATDS. The Sooner the Better.— The Cincinnati Enquirer keeps it before the people that 2,500, 000 Radical votes have 210 members of Con gress, while 3,500,000 Democratic votes have but GO members. Well, what of it ? asks the Times. Whereupon tho Enquirer responds:— There is this about it; 1. It stops, or should stop, the assertion of ignoramuses that the people of the country are opposed to the President’s restoration policy. They are not, but a majority of a million are iD favor of it. 2. It shows that the pretended representa tives of the people no longer represent it. 3. It intimates that “there is something rot ten in Denmark,” something that must be corrected, or else we must abandon all claims .to be considered a country under Democratic institutions. If 2.500,000 Totes are to rule 3, 500,000 votes, the sooner it is understood the It. ter. The Atlanta Opinion of tho 18th inst., says : “We paid a flying visit to Delvalb, Nowton, nnd Morgan counties, on Friday. Tho corn crops in these counties are reported by the farmers to he very promising, and an extraor dinary large yield of this grain is anticipated,” So fnr as this county is concerned, the above is true, for which “all hands” feel thankful to a benign Providence, hut that Local transcends not only the hounds of propriety, hut severely wounds the truth in tho following. “The cotton crop docs not seem to ho doin* very well, and an average crop cannot be count ed on, as the seasons are unfavorable for this great staple of tho South.” This information Lc gels from the farmers; so he says, but we have diligently inquired, and havo failed to find the farmer that furnish ed that information. It is a fact beyond con troversy, that the cotton crop of this county,at this time, is the most flattering for many years, and if we are blessed with a continuation of the present propitious season?, the yield will bo the largest for many years, taking into ti e account the area in cultivation. This gentleman of the quill should make his Pi7ym»age more thor ough by visiting tho country nnd making a more diligent inquiry of the farmers; by so doing ho will be the better enabled to make a more truthful exposition of the growing erop. Signs of the Times. The Now York Express says that Mr. Thad. Stovens, the leader of tho Radicals in Penn sylvania, seeing the signs of the times, and knowing that his party’s stock is at a heavy discount, lately gave expression t 8 his fears in the following language: “I fear wc shall lose Pennsylvania this next election. Ido nut think we have earnesness enough in the State to unite and draw out the Republican strength, while the Republican portion of tho Legislature has been so openly, notoriously and shamefully corrupt, that all the honest people of the State are disheartened and disgusted.” Here is the chief of the Pennsylvania Rad lcal sinners, openly denouncing tho Hep/üblican portion of the Legislature of that State, as "openly, notoriously and shamefully corrupt;’’ so much so that “ all honest people in the Stato aro disheartened and disgusted.” AY'hat a picture to study 1 As in Pennsylvania, so in New York, so in Ohio, if the ‘signs of the times’ indicate anything of what may transpire in the future.— Atlanta Intelligencer. Bayonet Law.— The London Saturn day Review lias been warning this coun try of the danger to freedom from the extention of military power. It cautions us that familiarity with tho exercise of despotic power produces indifference to all restrictions of law and of tradition ) and it adds that “the Americans are mis taken if they believe that revolutionary absolutism in the government of the con quered States will we found compatible with the maintenance of orderly freedom »n the North.” ■_ _ The New York Times concurs in these opinions, *nml n:M-t; fe believe that Ihe btdy safety to the e.untry lies in the fact that toe military governments in the South are necessarily limited in their du ration. Were tehy to last ten years, we would not give a lip for liberty in any p art of America.’’ Negro Congressmen.— Wc notice a generally expressed disposition and dcs termination, says the Journal Mcssen* ger , on the part of the white people of the South, to vote for, and as far as possible, tissist in the election of negroes to the Federal Congress. This is to be done partly on condition that the negroes give the whites the less remunerative offices ; t home. We want our States towns and cities, governed by whites, and arc perfectly satisfied, if this can be accomplished, to give the negro the more honorable and better paying offices. Our reasons are obvious for this, and are not easily misinterpreted—we do not think the negro fit to govern us, and are not disposed to put up with their igno rance and arrogance—we are willing, however, and would prefer, the most ob noxious, filthy,thieving negro imaginable, should go to Congress (and do not much fear contamination from his association,) in preference to one of those nameless cure, once so-called ‘rebel’ Southerners, who would be acceptable to the Radical Congress—in other words, a white man mean enough to be acceptable to the present Congress of the United Stales, from the South, is too mean for the poos pie of the South. The alternative is a negro—the peculiar institution of the Radicals. Recently in the Senate of the United States, Mr. Sumner attempted to force upon that body tho consideration of his bill for “universal suffrage,*’ and in his remarks upon the subject he unblushingly admitted that the object of the measure was to secure votes for the Mongrel par ty. lie said, “in Delaware, Maryland, and Kentucky, it was needed to increase the Union lMongrel( vole. It would se cure three thousand votes in Connecti cut, and fifteen thousand in Pennsylva nia. It was needed in New York and Indiana, and in fact in every State.” It is very evident that the Mongrels are afraid of the “so-called white race’’ in every State ; and, in order to neutralize its effects, they propose now to let the negroes vote, no matter what the peo ple of the several States may have to say upon the subject. In North Carolina the farmers are com plaining bitterly that they Lave been vic timized by parties from the North in the purchase of guano for their lands ; that they have paid a high price for it, yet it is perfectly valueless. Measures to inves tigate the fraud are about to be taken. The Latest News. August 21. Gen. Sickles refused to obey the exe cutive order restraining him from in terfering with process of the Supreme Court. There is reason for stating that he will be superceded unless he obeys. Washington, August 19, Military changes dependent upon Gen. Sheridan’s removal have occasioned fre quent visits bet" i en the War and Execm* tive Departments to-day.

Washington, August 18. The Commissioner of Internal Revenue has rendered the following decision : The interest of any successor to arise from sale of any real estate under any trust for the sale thereof, shall be deemed a succession chargeable with duty, and duty shall be paid by the person having control of the funds. If A wills B a thousand dollars, and for want of person al property the executor sells real estate to pay legacy, money arising from such sale is deemed a succession on which the executor must pay tax. Any person hav ing interest in an instrument unstamped, or improperly stamped, may present it to the collector with proper stamps, and fifty dollars penalty, which act legalizes the instrument. Tho collector mustnoto date and fact on the margin of the instru ment. The collector must remit fine on evidence that the stamp was innocently or ignorantly omitted. This application, however, must be made within 12 months ot the making of the instrument. Washington, August 20.

While the bonded debt lias only been diminished a little over four millions of dollars from the Ist of June to the Ist of August, the Secretary of the Treasury has reduced the circulating medium twen ty millions of dollars within that time.— The aim of the Secretary is to call in the greenbacks and every other Government issue upon which the people are not charged interest, while he allows all the interest bearing debt to remain. It would not do, ho thinks, to save the peo ple the immense sums of money they are now paying as interest upon the debt.
