Loni sville, Gra:
FRIDAY, NOVEMBER 3, 1871.
THS FAIBS-
The Georgia State Fair at Macon last
week was certainly one of the grandest
exhibitions ever witnessed in the South.
The perfect management of the various
departments, and tho superb accommo
dations for visitors added much to the
effect of tho exhibition. Thousands of
visitors poured in from all sections of
the State each day, and all agreed in
pronouncing it a most perfect success.
Mayor Huff, the “Steam Engine
Man” of the concern, has won for him
self the admiration and praise of the
thousands _of visitors for the excellent
arrangement of tho Fair. The visiting
members of the Press presented him with
a handsome silver casket worth SISO, as
a token of their appreciation of his cour
tesies to them.
Had wc space and time wc would
like to speak at considerable length of
what we saw, for besides the countless
number of pretty articles entered for ex
hibition, there were many objects that
were far more beautiful, and well worth
the price of admission just for one view ;
we mean of course Georgia’s charming
and lovely daughters. But tho ladies
would be offended if we advised people
to go to fairs to see them rather than the
exhibition of wares—bo to avoid an af
fair, we must desist.
The Augusta 0. S. iV M. Fair Associa
tion comes off this week, and we doubt
not many who enjoyed the pleasing ex
citement and rare displays at Macon,
will visit this also. Os this, more anon.
“SLOVO I DELO!’’
It is impossible for any one to con
template tho sad situation—the scenes
of turbulent faction, misrule, degradation
and all tho forerunners of anarchy, that
are now being “quartered” upon South
Carolina! To say that they far exceed
most of the actual horrors of the late
war, is but the utterance of a trutlr which
we think, would he verified were it left
to many localities to say which of the two
they would choose Before our surren
der, many parts of our Confederacy were
overrun and occupied by Federal troops
but wherever the old United States of
ficers— the graduates of West Point, had
command—they were,as a general thing,
governed by the liumaitics as well as the
Rules of Civilized war : it was only
where tho politico— volunteer or plun
dering adventurers, exercised a little
brief authority that the brutalities of
ruffianism and ignorance largely predom
inated. But as things are now conduct
ed by diiect orders from the President
of the United States, after a cessation
of hostilities for more than six years, wo
are astonished at Gen’l. Grant's credu
lity or petty revenge, in directly com
manding uud aiding tho liarrassiug, im
prisoning and fining of peaceful citizens
because acts of personal violence have
been committed by lawless creatures who
steal and plunder for their livelihood,and
act the part of “men of straw” for scal
awags and carpet baggers : ready to
accuse whomsoever they are paid to ar
rest, and as ready to swear to any and
every thing to secure their pay. The
Russiau “Slovo i dc/u’’ ‘words and deeds’,
established by Alexey Michaelovitoh, to
aid bis secret committee or State inquis
itorial ‘posse,’ to hunt dowu and summa
rily imprison overy person obnoxious to
to the ruling Powers, have been repro
duced in South Carolina, after their a
bolisbmcnt by Peter, because of their ul
traism and unpalatableness, even to the
atomach of Despotism, and the crude
mercies of semi-savageness. Nothing
was required excepting this bare charge,
or catch phrase , ‘Slovo i delo,’ whispered
against any ones name and laid before
the secret commission, to authorize his
instantaneous arrest and imprisonment—
where he remained until circumstances
produced death or purchased his liberty.
Gen’l. Grant’s respect for his high of
fice as well as for his private character,
should blush to have instigated like
deeds : much more to tolerate them in
the face of the unqualified denials from
honorable men of the Republican party
who voted for him, and who desire to
sustain his administration by legal and
honorable means. These, his friends
and partizins, live in the infected dis
tricts so stigmatised and subjected to
martial law and indiscriminate arrests ;
they know whether riots, or law and or
der prevail, and what efficacy exists in
the civil Courts, to repress all disturb
ances to the peace and quietness of soci
ety—they have assured him, over and
again, that his military interference is
not only uuneeded but injurious to the
maintenance of the purity of republi
can institutions ! Yet he heeds them
not! And to-day, instead of his bear
ing the olive branch, he seeks to scat
ter the fire-brands of war, and crush the
energies of a people whose only crime is,
they tferve not acknowledged Baal to be
God I
The Office of the Georgia Attorney
Generalship.
Whether it is the fault of our laws or
their loose, corrupt administration—
whether the incumbents of many of
our public offices aro simply weak and in
efficient, wanting moral nerve as well ae
mental vigor; or whether their unfaith-
fulness is chargeable to a corrupt head
and the general political prostitution of
the times—are questions that demand
thorough, speedy and fearless inquiry.
If Georgia’s honor and prosperity are
worth the investigation, or there can be
found honest men—brave men—willing
men enough, to engage in her cause and
the resuscitation of her resources from
the band of plunderers, pirates and rob
bers who are aod have been for so many
years, engnged in the unholy business of
using tbeir offices as mills for grinding
exorbitant taxes out of tho people and
voting appropriations for purposes use
less, or which were but crudely or par
tially realized—whilst the sums author
ized were absorbed by contractors, a
gents, sub-ageuts, deputies, payees and
transferees—each taking his per cent
age without lot or hindrance for abso
lutely doing nothing—the time is ap
proaching when tho remedios can and
should bo applied.
We need no other or more comple il
lustration of the shameful misapplication
as well as wauton wastefulness of the
public money, than the way it has been
paid out to the man pretending to dis
charge the Duties of Attorney General
of the State, together with the iniqui
tous privileges which have been allowed
him, or which he has arrogantly assumed
without any authority whatever that the
law sanctions. First of ail, and the piv
ot upou which Lis extra-ordinary acts
have been made to turn, lie was appoint
ed by Gov Bullock the Stale’s Attor
ney General at a fixed and established
per annum salary, to do and attend to
all tho legal business in which Georgia
might be a party before the Supreme
Court of the Stato; at least, judgiug his
duties as he is classed in the Governor’s
Cabinet, this seems to bo his prescribed
sphere. Yet, bo not only manufactures
cases himself for which lie receives large
extra-compensation—ho is not only em
ployed by the Governor to do jobs that
arc useless and for which he gets inde
pendent fees—but ho likewise assumes a
sort of ad libitum discretion to appoint
of his mere motion additional counsel to
do what it should have been bis own du
ty to perform, if bo is competent and
would be ntteutive to the requiremeuts
of bis office—otherwise lie is not only
worthless but a nuisanco. He bolds an
office under Executive appointment, and
affects at the same time, bis Superior’s
power to create like offices at bis pleas
ure. All manifestly rank usurpation,
and to the great detriment of the finan
ces of our Treasury ! It is clear to our
mind that gross and violent improprie
ties have been done, and the office of
Attorney General jiroper , has been a
bused and strangely perverted, or Mr.
Farrow is altogether inadequate to its
simple and easy functions. These spe
cifications aro a few only of the many
that exist; still they are enough to jus
tify examination, which, wo doubt not,
will be followed by applying the ‘drag
chain’ to check further malfeasances
and the payiug out tho public funds to
drones and sinecurists.
“The World’s Backbone.’’
No. 11.
In my first article, I stated my author- 1
ity for calling Agriculture by the name
that heads this, and gave some reasons
wiiy it should be wisely managed. At
present, I propose to notice briefly one
or two more features in our Agricultural
policy.
Many of our farmers hire what arc
called “crop hands,” or “season hands.”
This plan, in its present practical shape,
has been forced by the stress of circum
stances upon employers against their
will and judgment; and nothing short
of a general concert of action, or mutual
understanding, could have prevented it.
It is obnoxious, iu its present shape, to
very serious objections; for it is based
upon unsound principles aud will lead
to ruin. Hirelings receive a part of the
crop in lieu of money for their year’s
wages ; and if a year’s servico could be
secured, it would do very well; but they
consider themselves bound to work only
in a small circle, bearing directly upon
the crop ; outside of this, they must have
additional wages; aud, therefore, the
employer is compelled to pay double,
or at least, extra wages for a single year’s
work. Ho is required to turn a wheel
within a wheel, or elso make no manure,
clear no land, repair no houses, stables,
lots, premises, fences, clean up no hedg
es, clear no waste places, build no hog
pens, &c., &c. A farm necessarily
claims all seasons, and has its appropri
ate work for each one, which must bo
attended to at the proper time, or the
agricultural interest caunot flourish.
But again ; these “crop hands,” as
soon as the crap is “laid by,” may bo
seen strolling about over the country,
seeking pleasure, for days aud wcoks in
succession; and you cannot hire them
to work during this vacation for love or
money; and .they also demoralize and
ruiu those that «re hired for wages, to
do any and every kind of work for the.
whole year.
Again : these “crop hands” as soon as
tkoy have gathered their crajps consider
that their great work has been ac
complished, and having a “litfto some
thing now to live npon” they think the
way to be happy is to frolick away the
winter, knowing that when Spring ap
proaches they can easily obtain rations
and plenty of work- Many of them you
cannot hire at any price to do regular,
faithful work through the winter j antl
these aro the kind of hands that news
paper correspondents eulogise so highly
through April, May and June, deceiving
the North and the whole country. If
farmers have nothing to do but plant
and gather crops, they cat flourish un
der this system ; otherwise, they cannot.
The course that is now pursued,if persist
ed in, will bring ruin in its train. 1 know
that some contend that they require
their “crop hands” to repair feiiccs ; but
you ein’t get them to commence this
work, 'till they are settle! for the year,
or ought to be cleaning or breaking up
the land, or doing something else; they
go about it then very reluctantly, and
grumble loud and long if they think the
fencing sufficient for one crop. Farm
ers—our management is wretched ;
neither white nor black can possibly
prosper under the present regime.
Again ; even those who hire for the
year giving wages, have no established
rules or rystem in reference to how many
hours of labor shall be required during
the day, or how much leisure time shall
be given, or what kind of discipline shall
be exercised in reference to the hire
lings in any way. Every thing is man
aged in a loose, slip-shod way, so that
the industrious, prudent farmer, in or
der to succeed in getting laborers, must
often bend and give way from what he
knows to be right, on account of tho
loose management of his thoughtless,
slack and careless neighbors, if he has
such; consequently bad management is
constantly coming in conflict with that
of a different character, neutralizing its
force—in short, the policy exercised in
reference to the farming lusiuess of the
country is demoralizing aud ruinous in
its tendency, and if persisted in, will in
the end make facos of the proprietors of
the soil look much longer than they do
at present.
What we noed is system, system ;
rules, rules for every body, based upon
tho principles of a sound policy, that
will build up the material iuterost of the
South and establish them upon a firm
and permanent foundation. We need
work, regular faithful work, all seasons
of the year, We do not live iu the Tor
id Zone, wbeie we can subsist upon tho
spontaneous productious of the earth ;
but we live where the bleak winds of
winter sweep over the hills and vallies
a largo portion of the year, and our rai
ment and food must necessarily bo dug
out of the soil, Capt. Sprawls.
The Ineligibility Question.
For the information of our readers
generally, and in answer to numerous
inquiries, we give, in this article, tho
main provisions of the hill upon this sub
ject, which passed the House of Repre
sentatives on the 10th of April last, at
the called session of the present Con
gress. From this, it will bo seen what
classes of persons, by its terms, arc not
relieved from the disability clause of tho
so-called Fourteenth Amendment. This
bill was not acted on by the Senate be
fore the adjournment, but remains on
the calender of business in that body,
to come up at the session to meet in De
cember, now approaching. The bill re
moves political disabilities from all per
sons who do not come within the follow
ing classification ;
First—Members of tho Congress of
' the United who withdrew therefrom, and
aided the rebellion ;
Second—Officers of the Army and
Navy of the United States, who, being
above the age of twenty-one years, left
said Army or Navy, and aided the rebel
lion ; and
Third—Members of State Conven
tions which adopted pretended ordinan
ces of secession, who voted for tho adop
tion of such ordinances.
Besides these main provisions, the
third section, sets forth tho mauucr in
which the general provisions of the bill
are to be carried out, which are not
given in the language of the bill, in the
Congressional Globe, of the 11th of
April, from whioh we have taken tho
above statement, but they do not affect
the substance of its material parts.
If this bill passes the Senate, as it
has passed the House, the ineligibility
disqualification of the so-called Four
teenth Amendment, will no longer apply
to any person who does not come within
one or the other of the three classes, so
set forth in the bill.— Atlanta S»«.
