II. F. MisncnL, of CarROix In the appro
priation bill pass- 1 by the Legislature, there is
to clause giving thus gentleman, who is Journal
izing Clerk, $500 extra pay. High encomium#
were pronounced bv Messrs. Ifadley. Ab-ses an-1
Gartre’l upon hi# ability and faithfulness as an
officer. A c orrespondent says: “Mr. Merrell
in quite a favorite with the Lcglfitaturo, and
has Vtccomc almost like Unde Jose, a sine qua
non to that body.
Tint Ukason.—The proceeding# of Congress
no far have satisfied us that its members are as
radical an sin, as mad as “ March hares and as
wanting in patriotism as Pudz him is in piety.
In the Itump Government the people are as
yoiedesw as the Poles in the Ku»sian, as op
pressively g-'vern ,, -l us tin* Htu^rurians bv A'ts-
tri.i. and as hcfivily taxed as the Irish by 1 lie
English. In other words, the devil is loose
and we cannot re-chain him. Under such cir
cumstance# the j-ul-li iti--n of the :u ting- and
doings of the thiny at Washington would annoy
and harms# our readers. Hence we fed in
clined to pay us little regal'd to the thiny as
possible, and hdieveour readers will uot regret
the* absence of the published accounts ot its
madness. Occasionally we may forget our
selves, and say soriiothing of it. and hope each
time will carry with it its own excuse.
What Fou.v.—It is true that we can manu
facture goods and many other articles in the
S •nth ut Ichs cost than the Northerners can,
and still the fact weighs nothing with us. Ail
the Wood used in the manufacture of wagons,
buggies and carriages grow in our forests, and
we permit men from the Northern States to
come into our midst, purchase it at a mere
song, ship it thousands of miles, convert it
into spokes, rims and other similar articles, re-
siiip it in this form and sell it to us at an enor
mous profit, while we could manufacture the
same articles at less cost than they could if the
oak, ash and hickory were delivered at their
doors free of charge.
What folly in our people to permit such
things, and how absurd to hope, during their
continuance, to amass wealth and see (heir
country rrusperous. These are facts, and
any man of intelligence can satisfy himself by
taking the time antLjbiafelag the calculation.—
A comparison of fne price lists of Northern
and .Southern manufacturers of these articles
will i^ovo^fcaae thing*to be true. The latter
cuu undersell the former twenty per cent.
Gaivivj Frnrxffrn. From the dawn of time
to- this evil hour, flt- oppressors of mankind
have, in one sense, been in the majority: but
as “ years glide slowly by ” the oppressed are
gaining in numbers. The Hungarians, Poles,
Italians and Irish have endured years of mis
rule and (yrany. ami received no reinforcement.
The lordly Russian and barbarian t'ossrtek— the
liberty-haling Bourbon— the tyrannical Aus
trian and aristocratic Briton and their count
less minions, have had affairs their own way.
Some of the fairest portions of God's c-irih
have boon ruled by the bay .met, and its ifih.il>-
iPnftts have been unable to resist Heir dnfcpoil-
ors. These groaning .millions of garth have
had added to their miserable hosts the inhabi
tants of the South, aud still the oppressed are
in the minority. In due time, however, other
thieves or Butlers and Radicals will arise and
cause,more of,the free sous pf earth to feel
their power. Thus and thus trill the misruled
hosts gain strength, until their arms will be
inightieV than these of their oppressors, and
then tyrants and their abettors will be called
ty judgment— aiul what ajudynient it will be.—
We have no hope that onr eyes v.fiU witness
the dawn of the day when all tyrants will be
brought to justice, but the belief that it L* ap
proaching fills our soul with joy.
The Situation.
The policy of Congress (excuse us for refer
ring to it. for we intend the notice to contain
news only.) seems to be to piss an act remand
ing the ten unrepresented States U> territorial
conditions, and thus secure the ratification of
the Constitutional amendment hv three-fourths
aK-ert that forests of
I : > , rv and • -k, and a salubrious climate
are not ours—that our exhausted soil cannot
j*. rn vie rich again, and that manufacturing i-
j not pr-fitable ? We apprehend not. Wliat is

t manufacturing purpo£*#. an-l d«- any an i every-
' thing else necessary to success, if we will but
forsake our former habits and determine to
turn over a new lea;.

As (lie Chie f Executive of the State, 1 deem j
it a duty under the Constitution, to express j

Tliere is an unmistakable purpose upon the |
part of those who control the National Legis- I

of restoration.
The means they propose threaten to at once |
rei erse our progress towardsthe establishment |
of that permanent tranquili’y which is so much
desired by all. To do so, is to immeasurably
augment the distress which now exists, and to
inaugurate confusion, the cad of which no
human prescience can forsee.
To-day the cardinal principle of restoration
seems to be, favorable action upon the propos

transmitted to you in my annual message.
Upon the merits of that amendment my

on principle and are unchanged.

Milledgevillk, Dec. 10, 18GG.
Mr. Editor : This is the fortieth day of the
session, and the last, if the General Assembly
had not by a vote of two-thirds extended it
until Friday next. The failure of the Legisla-
tur<*. to adjopra wiUua the forty days is'not
owing to its idleness or slothfulness, but from
the fact that the people are in an unsettled
state, and are generally much dissatisfied with
their -present straightened circumstances, and
iu many instances falsely imagine that their
unfortunate condition can l>e remedied by leg
islation, consequently 4(31 bills have been in
troduced in the'House, and 211 in the Senate.
Much precious time has been wasted in tiie
consideration of measures, many of which were
impolitic, others impracticable, and not a few
on tlicir part wfi
practical effett.
Having done all, we may then com^ni} ou:

A Good Time Coming.
Everybody says, and what everybody says
must be true, that the Congress now in session
will certainly turn all the rebel States, “so-

be delayed, the wnrning to our sister (States

construed as to prohibit persons front carrying

Sec. 4. That any officer or other person

Sec 5. That any security upon any debt or

J. W Bradley’s Celebrated Patent
BUPLEX ELLIPTIC
(OR DOUBLE SPRING)
SKIRT.
T HE wonderful flexibility and great comfort
and pleasure to any lady wearing the Du
plex Elliptic Skirt will be experienced particu
larly in all crowded assemblies, operas, car
riages, railroad cars, church pews, arm chairs,
for promenade and house dress, as the Skirt
can be folded when in use to occupy a small
glace P3 conveniently as a silk or muslin dress,
an invaluable quality in crinoline, not found
in any Single Spring Skirt.
A lady having enjoyed tiie pleasure, comfort,
and great convenience of wearing the Duplex
Elliptic Steel Spring Skirt for a single day,
will never afterwards willingly dispense with
their use. For children, rnisse3 and young
ladies they are superior to all others.
They will not bend or break like the single
spring, but will preserve their perfect and
graceful shape when three or four ordinary
Skirts have been thrown aside as useless.—
The ltoop3 are covered with double and twist
ed thread, arid the bottom rods are not only
