THE HERALD. in John k. M’r.v i:, GA: SATURDAY MORNING, •i•. AI 31 1867 1 HIRST FOR OFFICE. AYe Imre always thought that the office should limit the man, not the man the office- The intelligent masses when free from politica' excitement, divested of prejudice nnd unbiased by motives of personal frienship are better judges of the qmilifiont’onsof on individual for an office than lie is himself, oud we have been long under the conviction that when w o see a person Unversing the country, impressing or attempting to impress upon the minds of elec tors, his claim for an office, the great impor tance to his party, or to the country, of his success in the race, that lie is either wanting .‘it political integrity, a demagogue, or incom petent to discharge the duties of the office.— Ninety-nine hundredths of men who present themselves as fit subjects to discharge the du ties or an < fficc claim competency—this is es pecially the case when their own inclination prompts them to become candidates. They fsel themselves competent but they aro only led to such an admission by reason of their thirst for position, and an clement in their compound which is antagonistic to integrity and that element is so contemptible that all men who desire to seo tho promotion of g .od nnd true men to positions of honor and trust, should frown upon such characters, and at the ballot box give them such defeats that a mortification will be produced that knows no bounds or di mensiorte. iu making this assertion wo do not include men who appear before tho pub lic ns nominees of conventions where the will of the people is fairly expressed, but even in this particular, bad selections arc made at times which should stamp the party making them with disgrace, but the remedy in such cases is easy and ample—and tho honest voters possess it, and if they assert their power the evils the few—attending conventions can be averted. No influence that can be brought to bear up on the public mind is more heavily freighted with material that is so competent todemoral iic a people—there is no influence that is so detrimental to the peace of society or tho per petuity of governments as a thirst for office or political honors, indeed we have otvee thought and, at this writing, feel no inclinaflou to change the opinion, that the life of the Ameri can Union, which is now languishing in tho last agonies of death, would have been prolon ged many years, lmd thero not existed among influential nnd lirscrnplous aspirants such an inordinate thirst for office. When the aspira tions of corrupt men aro checked by opponents new machinations will bo seized upon in order to accomplish their purposes, and their only inquiry is, will n certain course of conduct in sure success, it matters not what may be the character of that course of couduct—let it he honest or aWnrmaa like or unstntes man like, for the good of the country or its destruction, it will be cngcrly rcsortod to, if they aro half way satisfied that its adoption will insure success, or even beget a reasonable hope thereof. Link with this thirst for office,that most horrible of all political sins, party spirit, and we have in combination the must danger ous weapon that can be wielded against the peace of communities, the prosperity of a peo ple or the stability of a government. It will make patriots tremble, paralyze industry, and bring destruction upon any people or any gov ernment who will surrender to its ruinous in fluences. These reflections arc suggested by observa tions of recent date and wo are satisfied that our country, or what littlo is left, is rapidly w ending its way into jJiat awful abyss that awaits its reception. military rulers over us who issue their orders for our guidance, which are more like the fiats of the Almighty, than the edicts of man, and surpassed in no respect only by their presumption, and with a swarm of office seekers around us, who regard not tho impulses of honesty, reputation, or the stings of deserved indignation, we may bid adieu to peaco and liberty. A shattered union reconstructed by such men is not worth the time consumed in the passage of tho net that announces the fact. Peace, happiness, and good government have taken their flight from this land—woof the South aro to-day, the poorest, most miserable, and worst persecuted people that walk the habitable globs and what a commentary is it upon human naturo that men who were born in our midst, reared under our institutions, and identified w ith our section in property in terest should apostatise and prove truculent and venal! While good men ore in office faithfully and impartially administering the laws of the land to both “Jew nnd Gentile,” there is pre sented to the world the vulgar spectacle of men unqualified by either educational or le gal training striving by false representation to remo ve these faithful and impartial officers in order that they may occupy their places and administer what they call justice. Immaculate shades, indignant rise 1 “red hand of wrath” strike! earth open and receive into your bowels this hell deserving trash that polices our blood-washod soil. , . 1 -How -sharper than a serpent’s tooth it is To have a thankless child.” ■\Vill the North be enlightened about our sit uarinn ’ Will she continue to visit upon us punishment that is induced by fanaticism and willful misrepresentation ? Will she not re gtrain the satrap that lords it over us ?AV ill she not call home the vampyres who are ob literating our very existence? Descendants of the heroes of Bunker Hill. .Saratoga, Brandy wine, and Lcxinston, to you we appeal.- Ih-lp us out of this pit, do not sell us into Juries. Gao. Pope’s order No. 5 1> explains tliat his previous ortlor relative to juries was only intended to limit the jury list to such as could take the prescribed registry oath ; and it docs not therefore require negroes to be placed on juries. ■'g ... 111 • -rm I The goTerrnneot corn mission, in session at Congdon, Ohio, has settled damages to the amount of about SBO,OOO. which \f«f€ incurred during John Morgan's Ohio sgfcL The Bankrupt Law. Registers in Bankruptcy have beefn ftppoih* ted in all the Congressional Districts of this State, and regular courts arc now being beld. The passage of this law by tho Federal Con* gress, we think one of their wisest acts, and in view of the fact that many persons are by rea son of the lute war and other circumstances, reduced to hopeless insolvency we think it oomports both with honesty nnd self preserva tion that such persons avail themselves of the advantages provided in the law. A great ninny individuals are so considerably involved that they cannot even pay the yearly accumu lating interest upon their indebtedness—let uhne any portion of the principal, 'these persons in many eases are of advanced age and have yet upon their hands helpless fami lies to support, and it is eminently proper and honest that they should surrender what little effects they have—claiming what the exemp tion laws allow, and commence life anew.— Under this law the exempted amount is no inconsiderable sum--this taken with what our State laws exempt, is amply sufficient to com mence again to build up your financial struc ture. It is all important that parties intending to lake the benefit of the law, should do so by June 1, 18G8. The law went intooperation the first day of June last, nnd the 33d Section rends thus; “And in all proceedings in bankruptcy com menced after one year from the tunc this act shall go into oneralion, no discharge shall be granted to a debtor whose nssets do not pny fifty per cent, of the claims against his estate, unless the assent in writing of a majority in number and value of bis creditors who have proved their claims is filed at or before tho time of application for discharge.” “ Another Richmond in the Field.” F.llick Malialy, of tho African persuasion, in a well written letter addressed to the voters of the 4th Congressional district of Goorgia, an nounces himself ft candidate for Congress.- Bully for Elliek say we. lie writes like a man—his principles are sound, nnd if wo are to ho represented (?) in the National Legislature by n Radical, we have no hesitancy In express ing our decided preference for Elliek. Here is tho concluding portion of his letter—it is logi. cal nnd conservative, and wc say. bully for Elliek. * “In the event I am olcctod, I shall use the utmost of my feeble powers to bring about a reconciliation between the two sections. Wc have had war onough nnd strife enough.— While I am free to confess that my greatest efforts will be directed to the interest npd wel fare of my own race, I shall do all I ean to ameliorate the condition of the whites, believ ing that the interests of the two races arc identical here in the South. 1 shall do all in my power to repeal the tin just discrimination against the products of my section, to wit: the tax or, cotton nnd tobacco, I w ill givo one instance of the hardship of the tax on coiton. Last year I rented a small farm of l)r. Simmoni, of this county. After paying him tho rent, I had five bales of cotton. On them I paid a tax of fifteen dollars a bale, mak ing scvenly-five dollars.

Yours very truly, Ellice Mahai.y. In Good Luck. Our able cotemporary the Chronicle <(• Sen tinel, under the head of “Personal,” acknowl edges a visit from Maj. Fitch—tho inimitable Fitch of tho Griffin Slar. Fortune lias smiled upon him, judging from the following :. * “Pitch is a noted benefactor ; besides sup porting half dozen who work on the Star, lie own? all the property and people of Griffin, and supports and comforts all the widows and or phans of the place. At this writing he is sober and is likely to keep so. Bar rooms hero charge twenty-five cents a drink, lie has already pro cured in this little town over forty thousand subscribers, nnd advertisements from n junk and the keeper of a peanut stand, llis (pinion of Augusta will be reflected in the next ntimber of the Slar, and wo have promised tho Major to put them in rui paper at one dollar per lias—us an advertisement for the Star. _ - Judge Underwood. A correspondent of tho Chronicle rs- Sentinel writing fn in Atlanta, in mentioning the fact that Judge John AY. 11. Underwood, had pub lished a two column letter in favor of recon struction, snys iu substance that Gen. Pope was urged by some rebel in disguise to make this appointment, upon his coming out for recon struction, knowing him to be like an old mus ket, more dangerous to those employing it, than those aimed it. IV e happen to kuow Judge Underwood per* sonallv, and respect him for his talents and honesty, and however much wc may differ with him in regard to the political situation and the present distracted condition of the country, cannot permit’such an act of injustice go un~ noticed, even when the attack is made with a “pop gun.” Judge Underwood holds no ap pointment under Gen. Pope. - llis present po sition was tendered him by Governor Jenkins, atul accepted belorc the passage of the recoil* struclion laws, and long before General Pope changed his headquarters frona the saddle to the Gate City. On Dit- IVe learn from what wo call a reliable source, that Gen. Pope has become disagreeably fa tigued with his present position. He has become very uneasy, and is anxiously inquiring “what do you-people intend doing?” That's to be investigated yet, General. Some “with the lights before them, and the bayonets behind them,” arc going, teeth and toe nail for a con* vention, and Radical Reconstruction. Others who still venerate the constitution of the country, and desire to preserve and perpetuate .civil and religious liberty throughout all time, are ooing against a Convention. Well General, wc are going to do something without doubt, and while we ure going to do something, wo notice you have already done something.— Yide orders No. 49 and 53 | > -mununicatcd.] Mr. Editor.—-I see in your issue of the 9th inst., ft communication from Mr. Jacob Ketch um, Secretary of the Bachelor’s Club, asking your ttdtire oti the subject of matrimony. Now Mr. Editor, tho young gent seems somewhat afraid to how before the altar of Ifymeh ; it is painfully true that his fears are nut entirely groundless, f sincerely hope he does not be long to that class of gentry, who philosophise so w isely on the virtues of the young ladies at home, and forget it ns soon as they get into a public crowd. Theie may Lc a young lady there who knows how to turn her hand to every thing in the domestic department; and pretty w ell acquainted w ith the “(Bogies nnd Ominics,” who dresses in plain but neat style; he can scarcely recognise her, but let cue of your beautiful butterflies j ass, and Oh ! such bows! while he whispers to a friend at his elbow, ‘Ts’nt she beautiful ? so accomplished and dresses with so much ta-te,” while she could not tell a ham from a shoulder, bran front shorts, how to make Liecuit, or whether you boil coffee, or fry it. Still, she can play a few pieces on the piano, paint some simple scene, bowl (not sing) some of tho fashionable oper atic airs, nnd is in every way so well suited to make a wife, she is courted, admired, and flat tered to tho last extent. Mr. Editor, I wish somo of your advice my self on this all-important subject. Where is the sensible young lady that is going to run the risk of marrying while the young men prefer “ lying around,” to work 1 'Tis true, as your correspondent says, they may have “ fit” pretty hard in the late struggle for independence, and we admire them very nnieh so far as gallantry is concerned, yet some of them while in the army learned to become as devout followers of Bacchus, as they were of Lee or Johnson, and fearful to rclato! some of them continue their devout worship of the wine-cup, I acknowl edge that some have laid aside their bad habits and gone to work like men, but they are “few and far between.’’ The majority arc afraid of mnnual labor, and prefer standing behind the counter with a few boxes of cigars, a few bot tles of liquor, or a few dry goods, filling some petty office or setting up. to teach a fsw chil dren, rather than taking hold of tho plow han dles or the hoe; and those who pretend to be farmers must needs have on their buckskins, nnd a handkerchief tied around their beautiful white necks, to enable them to sit on the fence to watch a few lazy freedmen, and with all this they pay a great deal more attention to the growth of their dear Utile moustaches, than to the corn and cotton. t Os course the former must be kept in proper order, let things go as they may. Now, I have heard these “Lords of Creation” declare that no lady will condescend to dust a room, wash dishes, or set a table. My opinion is, that a lady is a lady any w here, in the parlor, in the kitchen, or in the milk yard; us for myself, 1 can milk it cow, cook a meal’s victuals, wash dishes, sweep the floor, set the table, sew, knit and do almost anything in the domestic department, J know what it takes to put Cabhagd into cold or hot' wa(d¥ l W I WnE' u U ean also entertain my friends when they call, and now Mr. Editor, you have known me nearly all my life you Cu! 1 fell md whether I am a lady or not. And if “shriveled old maids ornament cur parlors a few years hence,” who i- to Untile ■ Show the young ladies —those of them who | live for something better tlmn to spend money and entertain well dressed fops—show them, I say, a nice, frugal, economical, sober ex-rebel young gentleman, nnd they will not be afraid to enter into the bonds of matrimony. I!ut who had not rather be a “shriveled old maid” than the wife of a man who is afraid to work, or one who spends liis earnings at a liquor shop? Os course, a ball room butterfly does not care whether a gentleman drinks or not, sohft dresses lino, has the prettiest meerschaum, the largest moustache, wears the smallest boot nnd finest glove. And in conclusion. Mr. Editor, let mo beg j of you. to request Mr. Ketehum at their next regular meeting, to lay before his august brethren somo plan, bv which they can remove some of the evils which are so common among the young men of America, par/fcnlarly that of going to church solely foi the purpose of criticizing on what the ladies wear, and the manner in which they wear it, for the ladies arc clear of any such ridiculous practice con cerning men. You -may further inform Mr. Ketehum that Professional Gentlemen, espe cially lawyers arc not very popular in our section; we all prefer farmers. Yours truly, DILSY ANN. Rural Retreat, August lYtb, 5867. [Note. —Wc can most unequivocally assured Mr. Ketchum that Miss Dilsy Ann is a lady in the most unlimited sense of tho term, and if he is ‘.he man she describes, he will be doing well to socure a life partnership with her. —Et».| “God Bless You.” —A crippled beg* par was striving to pick up some ol| clothing that had been thrown from th£ window, when a crowd of rude boys gath ered about him, mimicking his awktviifl movements, and hooting at his lieplesi ncss and rags. Presently a noble little boy came up, and pushed his way through the crowd, helped the poor crippled mafn to pick up his gifts, and placed them in a bundle. Then as he was running away, a voice above said ‘ Little boy with a straw hat, look up.” A lady leaning from an tipper window, said earnestly, “God bless you, my little feilow. God will bless you for that.’’ As he walked along he thought how glad he had made his own heart by doing good. lie thought of the poor beggar’s grateful look, and last, and better than all, lie could almost hear his Heavenly Father vhis* pering, “ Blessed are the merciful, for they shall obtain mercy ” Little reader, when you have an opportunity of doing good and f.-cl tempted to neglect it, res member the little boy with the straw hat. During the naval review at Spithead, England, the sound of the cannonading was heard at a distance of one hundred and fifty miles west of Portsmouth- ||h- Latest Nows. Washington, August 27. Ti| fluent has assigned General C .tnby to the Second and General Ilanv cock to the Fifth District. The official record shows the amount of cotton exported during the year ending June 30th to be 637,000,000 pounds; value in currency £202,000,000. The breach between the President and General Grant is widening. General Grant is on defiant grounds in opposition to the Executive assigmenls. lie pro tests, with some indignation, against Hancock’s removal from the department of the Missouri. Grant has not yet pro mulgatcd instructions carrying the Pres ident’s order into effect. This morning’s Tribune says : Gen*- oral Sheridan, in a letter to a gentleman of this city, thinks the future prosperity of Louisiana beyond question and assnres capitalists that the bonds recently issued have ample security. Captain Arms, who had the recent fight with the Indians, arrived at Fort Hayes. lie reports three killed and thirty five wounded; forty-fivo horses were lost. After the battle the Indians sent in a flag of truce with the message: “Tell your officers that we don’t want peace. We shall keep on fighting.’’— Three hundred men, including Kansas volunteers, left Fort Ilaycs yesterday after the Indians. A Nashville dispatch says Brownlow has taken possession of tho Mobile and Ohio Railroad. The Sioux Indians arc incorrigible. The Crows arc friendly. Three hundred and thirty cholera deaths are reported in the Indian territory —south of Kansas, Washington, August 28. The following order was issued to day: In pursuance of the order of the Pre sident of the United States, Brevet Maj, Gen. Canby will on receipt of the order, turn over his present command so the officer next in rank to himself, and pros ceed to Charleston, S. C., to relieve Maj. Gin. Sickles of the command of the Sec ond Military District, Maj. Gen, Sickles on being relieved will repair to New York city, and report by letter to the Adjutant General. By command of General Grant. E. D. Townsend, A. A. G. The order regarding the Fifth District had not beon'promulgnted up to 3 o’clock to-day. Revenue receipts to-day $558,000. Gen. Grant had a prolonged interview with the President to-day, during which it is said matters were adjusted between them, and Grant’s letter was withdrawn. Subsequently, the order relieving Sickles was promulgated, and there arc assuran- District will be promufga f efFTo-nVofriWi Thirty-seven per-cent, of the population of Fort Gibson died. At Fort Arbuckle sixty soldiers and seventy-five Indians died. To-day’s Tribune bugs Grant.— The Herald drop3 lrm, saying: “The political position assumed by Gen. Grant shews C>ur great soldier in anew light, it is bis first, development of political genius—lds first and final mistake. The reply of the President has completely overthrown him—outflanked him. Grant does not understand the crisis. Heelings to Sheridan and forgets principles. Ex Avant ! — Mr. Johnson’s next step after forcing the Stanton spy to walk the plank, was a wise anti suggestive one— an order to Gen. Dan. Sickles that his satrapy has no power to interfere with the process and judgments of United , States Courts. The order has great sig nificance, and as it is issued through Gen. Grant, the satrap Dan. will not dare to disobey it, and there is no hope that he will a second time tender his resignation, seeing that Stanton is not Tn position to declifie its acceptance. This order closes- upon Gen. Pope in reference to the proceedings before the U. S. Commissioner agairist Military May or Horton. That little episode of prac tical and retributive justice will have to proceed, and the chalice go to his lips; Perhaps the next order will be to for bid large military chieftains to descend to the small business of bulging the press through its interest in official advertise ments. That last order of our command er is lamentably little, and does not at all tally Avith that order to Col. Shepherd not to interfere with the freedom of the press, in the matter of Griffin and his Nationalist. Gen. Pope will look back some day upon his administration, and find this order to be one of his regrets. [Mobile Advertiser <)• Register. With a democratic majority of 50,000 in Kentucky there has been no need for Congress to appropriate 20,000 stand of arms for use by the militia, as in Tennes see, where the radical majority is 50,000.
