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.

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.”

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.

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

Major to put them in rui paper at one dollar

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.—

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.

“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,

good and f.-cl tempted to neglect it, res

Thirty-seven per-cent, of the population

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.
