FRIDAY. MARCH 28, 1873. 0 Temporal 0 Mores! Some old writer has said that man is part demon and part divine. While we are not one of those who would judge too severely the failings of hu man nature, an inherent !o\o of truth end honesty compels us to say, that with many of our public men, the de mon greatly preponderates. Hut it was not always thus. Our young Republic was once proud of the honesty ami integrity of her citi * zens, both public and private.* Hri -1 *ery and corruption were terms un known. The majesty of vit tuc forced them to hide their hydra heads be neath the Rands of seclusion. The villainy of Credit Mobilicr slumbered in the lap of futurity—unknown; un thonght of. The Constitution of otir fathers was considered the palladium of American liberty and prosperity. Beyond lie Rflcml influence they never ventured; or, if some did, there was virtue enough left in the majority to check them. The wise and patri otic met at Washington not to rob from the pnblio treasury filthy lucre to make n fortune for self, but to en act who'caotne laws to protect the good and restraiji the had. But, alas! the nature of vice is pro gresaivc. In the course of time an unholy leaven was introduced, which has well nigh h-avened the wliolo lamp. That sacred temple of liberty has almost become a dm of thieves. And, not content with their spoils, they vote themaolvr* double wages! For what? Asa premium for their villainy!—the wages of oppression! The chief mler gets an increase of pay for acts, the moiety ol which would have sent almost any crowned head to the scaffold. Kings have lost their heads for less offences. The wail of nn oppressed people is mot with insult added to injury. Poor Louisiana, once prosperous and hap py, now groaus under the yoke of the tyrant, Kellogg, supported by the President. And yet this is called liberty! This is America, the “any*, lura lor the oppressed of every na tion!" How long? OLord! How long? *■ Hew ktotphsn vice triumphant reign T How long stud! itwn'trtln Until to gniit ?

The county seal, which is snugly settled bet ween two moun tains, is one of the most delightful and pleasant little towns in Georgia your Correspondent has visited for many mouths. Tito people are ener getic, industrious, honest and upright; tfUsiucsß o('hI1 kind seem to be pushed forward with great zeal. Many new buildings are now being erected. Mr. Hood has built anew and hand some residence,and has now in couise of erecting one of the best grins mills in the country, situated on the hanks of the Palmetto creek near town Captain Mtu Murphy is also having a new and hcnij'iful residence erected mew the Public Square. When fin ished it will present an attractive ap pearance, and will be an ornament to that portion of the town. A few other buildings are going up, some very near completion. li' Hamilton is lacking in ennnee- ! tion with the outside world at pres- j tut, it is not lacking in building and j industrial propensities of its thorough i going people. All are anxiously I looking forward to the clay when the j North <fc South Railroad will be fim j ished to that place. The Pine monn- j tain on the north side has been for a ! long tipiea great barrier to iis enm-.i friction; but it lias at last been stir-; mounted by the skilful tact of the engineer, it seems as if the summit was not high enough, as they had to throw uj> an embankment of several | feet in height. \ The female college, the exercises of which it will he remembered, are now | suspended, with the exception of a j small portion of the pupils, who are J now being taught by that excellent \ teacher .Miss King, in the Baptist i Church, Workmen arc nnw husily engaged on the construction of the new col lege, which is being built immedi ately on the site of the former one.

The thorough training and strict discipline, together with the healthy climate and beautiful scenery u Inch meets the eye on every side, has attracted many students from various i arts of the State. The Good Templars Lodge i-< now in a most? flourishing condition. Many new accessions have been made recently. Nearly nil the young la dies and young men are members of this great and good, organization. May they continue to flourish in the noble cause of tom iterance. Their last election for Chief Templar resul ted in favor of Col, James M. MoMev, whose influence for good is greatly felt. The Sabbath School scholars of both denomination*, Baptist and Mcthodist|jiul membarsof the. Lodge, intend having excursion to the mountain ftbutit the first of May. These are. always largely attended. Thu spicy paper, the Hamilton Visitor, is daily gaining popularity. Mr. 1), W. D. Ihmlly, its sole editor and proprietor, is a live and wide awake newspaper man. We always hail his paper as a most velJome visi tor. I On last Monday evening nn ele gant entertainment was given at the Hamilton Hotel to the young people by the landlord Dr. llodel), and his estimable lady ami daughters. The attendance was sufficiently large to make the occasion one of genuine pleasure; many of the fair young la dies were present to add their charms fo the pleasant occasion, Cupid shot hi* dart* during the whole evening. The supper was a most excellent one; the tables literally groaned under the weight of all the most choice luxuries imaginable.

That Henry Ward Beecher is one of the greatest pulpit orators of the age there are not many to dispute, i and that he in brilliant with his pen is | equally true, as the columns of his j weekly publication, the Christian 1 I Union, f.-ruish abundant proof in { ear!i i-sue. This paper is becoming i a family favorite, and there are thous ! amis of homes where its appearance ! is looked for with delight and pleas i ure. In his announcement for 1873, i .Mr. Beecher says “all the questions j of interest, which may arise will he | discussed—but w ith special reference | to the wants of the Family ;” the I main purpose of the paper being “to | promote sympathy and co-operation j among all Christians,” and “to in— i spire devontncKs, good will, and cheerful activity in every household ito which it comes.’’ This is praise ! worthy, and the social fireside will j be made happier as well as better by any paper of such a -pint. Besides this, the Christian Union “Will en deavor to keep its readers informed of the news of the day, in Religion, Literature, Art, Commerce, Politics, and of the curious happenings and humorous events that may interest and enlighten the family circle.” As an extra inducement for the coming ■year* an elegant French Oleograph called “Little Runaway and her f'ets,” will he presented to every subscriber; or, to those who prefer, the French Oil Chronics known as “ Wide Awake” and “Fast Asleep,” which were presented to nearly 130,- 000 dt lighted subscribers in 1b72. These pictures are executed in the highest style of art, and at the first glance strike the beholder with their beauty. Either of them is worth the price asked for a year’s subscription to the paper, and all who subscribe will be satisfied that they are getting the largest $3 worth they ever before received. tST An old pair of lasts, on which the brogana of the editor of the St. Louis Globe used to he built, were sawed tip and split into firewood the day, and sold tq, the captain of a steamboat at five dollars a cord.— Courier Journal.

THE AIjDUN b AS ILLUSTRATED MONTHLY JOURNAL. The Aldice, while issued with alt the regu larity. has none of the temporary interest characteristic of ordinary periodicals. It is art elegant miscellany of pure, light, and graceful literature', and a collection of pic tures, the rarest specimens of artistic skill, in black and white. Although each succeeding number aliords a fresh pleasure to its friends, the real value and beauty of the Aldine will be most appreciated after it has been bound up at the close of the year. The possessor of a complete volume cannot duplicate the quan tity of fine paper and engravings in any other shape or number of volumes for ten limes its cost: and then there arc the Chromos besides. Notwithstanding the increase in the price of siiliseription last Fall, when the Aldine as sumed its present noble proportions and rep resentative character, the edition was more than doubted during the past year—proving that the American public appreciate and will support a sincere effort in the cause of art. The publishers are authorized to announce designs from many of the most eminent art ists of America, In addition, the Aldine will reproduce examples of the best foreign mas ters, selected with a view to the highest artis tic success and greatest general interest; avoid ing such as have become familiar, through photographs or copies of any kind. Every sulweriber to the Aldine. who pays for a year in advance, will receive, without additional charge, a pair of beautiful oil chro mes, after J. J. Hill, the eminent English painter.

The same chromos are sold for f>3o per pair in the art stores.
