The editor of the Manner is still so" journing in Northern latitudes, and the Proprietor must bog indulgence of the reader. His many other duties will not permit him to devote much time to edi torial labor Tho “grey goose quill” of former days, has remained unused so long it will not flow freely,and therefore lie makes hut a feeble effort. Wo hope to welcome, ere the next issue of the Manner, our editor to his sanctum. To Advertisers- We call upon parties who liavo con tracted advertising (transcient) accounts with this office, to come forward and settle. Although our terms were caeh, we have, owing to the hard times, shown you indulgence ; but wo can wait no longer. This notice is especially appli cable to those indebted for legal fiotices. Many of you are perfect strangers to us, and we relied solely »pon your honor, to settle when called upon to do so. Some of our coternporaries object to supplements, becaim , as they assert, business men do not like to have tiioir advertisements thus placed lie fore the public. No doubt there is truth in the statement, and wc have concluded to a bandon them, and increase the dimen sions of our paper. To-day the Manner cnrPaius five pages, and it will he in creased in size as business demands. We have ordered a large quantity of new tppe, i tiles, etc., and will, in two weeks, he able to increase our dimensions to eight pages. A Complaint. We understand some of our patrons complain that wc do not furnish a suffi ciency of reading matter. It is regret ted they are dissatisfied; and we most respectfully invite them to institute com parison between the columns of the Man ner, and three-fourths of at least one hundred exchanges received at our office, and the most of them charge four dollars per annum for weekly issues. Wo furn liiih never losr than nine, and sometimes ns much ns fifteen columns per week, for three dollars per annum. If tee cannot afford to do better—it is useless for oth ers to try. The Exemption Law A correspondent of the Macon Tele graph of the 241 b, says that ifthoKxemp tion or Homestead Act, which passed the Senate a few days ago (ami which will he found on the fifth page of the Manner,) should become a law, “the property ex empted will be greater than that owned by a majority of the people of the State,” | ami that it will "destroy the credit of lhc\ for no sane man will credit anoth- j or, all of whoso property is exempted from liability for his debts.” 'Without giving our opinion, pro. or; <«n. in reference to the pending ITomc-; stood Act, we must say that if inclined to make opposition to its adoption, the I argument advanced for its defeat by the j aforesaid correspondent, would have iretghi in its favor with us. Wc wish toGod some arrangement, some policy, or oven law, could be made whereby tlfo ruinous credit system, which lias ever cursed this country, could be done away with; and if the Homestead Act will bring about so desirable a result, although at present; it may bear tho appearance of injustice i to the creditor, in the end it will prove a wise, judicious and humane policy. I Pcbuc Documents —Wo are again un der obligations to onr able Representa tive in the lower house of the General Assembly, Col. IV. 11. Bennett, for valua q!c and important documents. Correct Sentiment*-General Wil liam 11. Slocum We publish below an extract from a speech, deliv- red by Gencrnl Wm. 11. locum, at the great conservative mass meeting held in New York by the friends of Mayor liolTintiii. The people oi Geor gia know to their sorrow, who Gen. Slocum is. The passage of his “army corps” through the State is marked by monuments that will stand for years as reminders that a ruthless foe once desol a ted our happy homes, and that, second in command of that myried host was Gen. Wm. 11. Slocum. He was a brave, talented and energetic officer, and we are led to believe that ho was actuated by honest motives in waging war against the South. Tho Confederate sword shivered, and the sheath cast away— her armies disbanded—some of her lead ers in orison and exile—and her people slicing for peace—this hravejleader of a mighty corps, who was foremost in de manding death and destruction —de- mands that the victor be magnanimous to a fallen foe. His remarks drive home to the heart. And what better answer can the South make to tho Radical Con gress, when it asks ns to disfranchise our leaders and fake to onr embrace the filthy negro, than that which Gen. Slo-1 on in declares would ho the reply of the i North to similar demands, if Jefferson Davis had been the victor : “We fought in a cause we believed to bo just ; we have lost we will submit to any just laws you will make, but when you ask us to become our own executioners—to aid in disfranchising, and forever disgracing onr trusted leaders we have but one an swer to make. Away with your oi ve branch 1 You may make us outlaws in the land of our nativity, you may drive ns to foreign lands hut you cannot com pel us to put the knife to the throats of our companions in suffering.” Dark, damning deeds disgraced the re. cord of “Slocum’s Corps”—remembrance of which can never he erased from the hearts of Georgians ; but if there is re demption in this world for acts that make man infamous, this noble patriotic and statesmanlike speech of Wm. 11. .Slocum, is one erasure on the black re cord against Gen. Slocum: “But every prediction made by Air. Stephens was more than realized.— (Cheers). The people of Georgia have seen their lovely South desolated by the demon of war ; their green fields of wav ing harvest have been trodden down by tho soldiery and tho fiery ear of war has swept their land ; their temples of jus tice have been laid in ashes ; and their last slave wrenched from them by uni versal emancipation. The peoplo now bow in humble submission to their fate —acknowledging their rights in slave niio'wefrio'Uwk 4ud only asking to be themselves once more beneath its protec ting folds. Here again Mr. Greely steps upon the stage, and this time be brings with him what he calls the olive branch. (Laughter.) He says to Mr. : “1 told you that the Declaration of Inde pendence justified the secession of the South as much as it justified in the seces sion if (lie Colonies in 177(1. You fool isldy and wickedly believed me (Great merriment ami cheering.) I told you that you could go in peace. You foolish ly believed this also. Now look at the result—your young men slain by the thousands your land filled with cripples, your fields laid waste, your dwellings burned and your slaves emancipated and your friends reduced to beggary. Behold now, 1 bring you peace offering. (Great laughter and applause.) Confess your self a vile traitor, disfranchise and dis grace yourself and all who acted with you for all time to come, and in return we will allow Parson Brownlow. Hun nicut, and that class of virtuous patriots elect themselves to Congress and iu con conjunction with the negroes they shall hereafter rule over you. (cheers.) As tounding magnanimity 1 Did the world ever before witness such generosity on the part of a brave people toward a fall en foe 1 Suppose the war had resulted differently—suppose the rebels had taken Washington, mid having established their own government over the entire land, had said to the North. You have burned our houses destroyed our crops and impoverished our people. Wo are willing you should bo represented in Congress, but it must be upon condition that you adopt an amendment to the Constitution disfranchising forever all j who fought against the South. What would have been the result ? Why Gree ley would not have been disfranchised (laughter)—nor Thad Stevens nor Wen dell Phillips, for they are not combat ants. (Continued laughter.) Even Ben Butler would have escaped—(great laughter and cheering)—for you remem ber lie was “bottled up” and couldn’t tight. But there are others who would have been affected, byjit and among the number are Grant, and Sherman, and Thomas and Sheridan, Farragut, and Porter. (A voice—“And Slocum ! Slo cum ! Slocum !” (cheers.) And all the real soldiers and sailors under them. What would have been tt e reply of tbe veterans of our army to such a proposal emanating from Jeff. Davis ? (Tbat’sit!) they would have replied. “We fought in a cause wc believed to lie just ; we have lost—we will submit to any just laws you may make, but when you ask us to become our own executioners—to aid iu disfranchising and forever disgrac ing our trusted leaders we have but one I answer to make. A wav with your olive branch, you ina\ make us outlaws in the - land of our nativity you may drive ns to j foreign lands but you cannot compel us ; to pul the knife to the throats of our com ! panions in suffering. (Cheers.) Andj this, 1 think is about the answer you will * get from the South for I have found that! brave men arc much alike the world j over. Northern Swindling House*. We are in receipt, almost daily, of let ters from “Advertising Agency” houses j in the Northern States, making the most] liberal propositions for our enrichment. If we bad accepted one half the proposals 1 made, since the establishment of the i Manner, and tbe said Agencies bad com- j plied with their miraculous overtures, we would this day, be able to retire from business with a competency—as would likewise other publishers at the South, who, doubtless, have received similar proposals. One firm offers S2OO for a one squar ’ advertisement three months; uuoth r will furnish ns three hundred dollars toward* the payment of a magnificient piano, pro vided we insert a very small notice for twelve months; a Lottery firm will pre sent us w th a magnificent gold watch, with a splendid diamond, for the inser tion of an advertisement and editorial; voucher as to the reliability of tbe firm; j another Lottery concern writes that if we will use our columns in the interest of their establishment, a magnificent farm will be donated us—said firm proposing to dispose, by lottery, of three thousand farms. These are a few of the proposals re ceived; and in every instance the said I advertising agencies vouched for the re spectability and reliability of the houses and firms represented. Unfortunately, how ever, (and this is tho reason why wo have not become rich,) the Agencies themselves furnished no vouchers ns to their own standing. For aught we know, they may all be escaped convicts from “Blackwell’s Island,” (and doubt less some of them are,) and presuming because they were smart enough to bribe or evade the vigilance of the guardians of that prison house, they deem it an easy task to humbug an f swindle the Southern Press. And we are sorry to say, in a measure, they have been successful. We were green enough to be “taken in” once or twice, but some of our brethren are so extremely verdant that they continue to allow themselves imposed upon, not withstanding every assurance has been given, that their northern advertising patrons are viliians and imjKisters. In conclusion, we say to all "Adver tising Agencies,” that we will not pub lish advertisements, the objects of which are to swindle the people, either for pro mises or money, and all such can save stationery and postage, if they will not address us. Beast Butler and Impeachment of President J ohnson. Butler delivered a speech in Brooklyn, N. Y., on the evening of the 24th inst., coursed at length upon'inf^lavor lie tfoD by, the impeachment of President John -8011. lie in reported by telegraph to have claimed that improper public speed) of a high official is impeachable, that the Senate, from which members of eleven States are excluded and, some of them expelled, is a legal high court of impeach ment; that if the accused neglect or re fuses to appear before the Senate when summoned, be may be tried, convicted and deposed from bis office in bis office; that all powers of impeachment are de rived from English laws, and that, ac cording to all law and precedent, the President, if impeached, must be pre vented from exercising the functions of his office. Butler enumerated the charges ho had to make against the President as im peachable offences, viz: Ist. Drunkenness in office. 2d. The making of indecent and in flamatory harangues. 3d. Tyranically and unconstitutionally, as Chief Executive Officer, usurping law ful rights and powers of Congress, in ap pointing Provisional Governors for the South, the reorganization of State Gov ernments, and assumption of powers to dictate who should vote in the recon structed States. 4th. The corrupt use of the appointing power. sth. Improperly- using the Constitu tional power of pardon for offences a gainst the United States. 6th. Appointing rc beds to nfficc. 7th. Refusing to execute the Constitu tional laws of Congress in the insurrec tionary States. Bth. Conspiring with John T. Monroe to prevent and disperse a lawful conven tion of loyal citizens in New Orleans, and inciting Monroe and his associates to disperse said convention and kill the members thereof. Suit has been commenced before tbe Supreme Court by John A. Lester against General Butler, charging him with false imprisonment—damages laid at one hun dred thousand dollars—and with fraudu lent conversion of property—damages fifty thousand dollars. Lester received a free pass from Secretary- Stanton dar ing the war to bring his family North. General Butler disregarded the permit and imprisoned him. The Louisville Courier, of Friday, pub lished a full list of the number of hogs in Kentucky over six months oid, as re turned iu the Annual Report of the Audit or of the State. Compared with the list of 1865, there is an increase this year of 188,557 hogs. ‘‘No Pent up Utica” Coniines Amer ican Radicalism. WeudeM Phillips, the Great High Priest of Kadicaldom, is about to revo lutionize the world, and elevate tins ne gro everywhere, to a position iu “har mony with the nineteenth century,” as interpreted by New England Puritanism The result of the recent elections at the North, seems to have had a very mirac ulous effect upon this fanatic. In the AntirSlavery Standard he writes: “Rad icalism travels Westwaid. Personal Liberty bills, Womans Rights bills, and all such legislation; started from New England and have swung round tlia cir cle. This last Yankee notion will soon begin its travels, and complete them when North and South know no race be- fore the law? Then, when a million of black men aid in shaping our national policy, their race will feel tbe effect the world over. They will never leave their brethren in Cuba under the yoke. They will throw a shield over tbe struggling nationality of Ilayti and lift Brazil into harmony with the nineteenth century.” What a magnificent programme is laid out for the entertainment of the nations of the earth! “Woman’s Rights” and "Free Loveism” must he recognized, not only in the Imperial Halls of Europe but among the sutty sons of Africa! A nother Civil War. The New York Times contemplates another civil war as possible, from the present disturbed condition of politics, in the United States; and urges tbe States “left out in tbe cold” to avert it, by pur suing such policy as will allay the ex citement of parties at the North. It says: “Such a war so begun would plunge the whole country into a state of anarchy and armed turbulence, from which it could not emerge in twenty years, and then only in fragments, exhausted in re sources, decimated in population, and powerful only for purposes of domestic tyranny and misrule. There are men in the country who think they could 1 etter their fortunes and gratify their ambition by plunging the country into such a cal dron. But whatever might happen to the rest of the country, tbe South may rely upou it, its ruin from such a state of things would be speedy and complete. So long as there was anything left in the Southern States which could feed re venge or cram tbe insatiate maw of ava rice and ambition, so loig would the reckless malignants of the North make them their common prey. It would only be after their utter and complete exhaus tion that the victors would commence that quarrel among themselves which would execute retributive justice and in volve the whole country in a common ruin.” The “Little Villain” of tbe Times may be a very shrewd politician, but he is “not a Dropbet nor the son of a prophet.” Another war , ~ rij . of the South—but we would have the swi et consolation that the North was likewise irretrievably and hopelessly ruined, and Raymond, and hundreds of his stripe, perish miserable deaths at the hands of an outraged populace. But, we will have no more war. Butler, Stevens, Sumner & Cos. are not fighting men. “1 wish 1 bad Five lln ml red Dol lar*!’’ llow many times, says the Sandersville Georgian, have you heard this coming from a hale slraping youth lounging about some store door, as he yawned and stretched his muscular lrame in the shade during the past summer. He may still lie wishing. Frobably is, if his idleness has not involved him in some difficulty which keeps him hid from the view in the cell of some county Jail. Should this young man still desire the gratifica tion of his wishes we would refer him to the operations of master Littiaston Cham ju.lßß in Florida during the past yearjand assure him that by pursuing the same course he will not only get his five hun dreddollars but have injaddition his health improved the respect and confidence of the community in which he may live, an approving conscience, and a sure guar antee that he will not become a drone in society-, a miserable disgrace to his friends a public nuisance. Go to work boys assured that by honest and diiligent j labor you can overcome every difficulty i and realize in the end your most san guine expectations. The Marianna (Fla.) Courier says : “Littleton Chambliss, aged sixteen years son of Jas. H. Chambliss, of this county cultivated fifteen acres in corn and five acres in cotton ; has housed two hundred and seventy two bushels of corn, and picked for the gin two and a half bales of cotton. With the usual appliance the crop was made by himse'f. Corn at $1 50 and cotton at 25 cents, rather below than above market price, his crop would yield seven hundred and seventeen dollars and fifty cents. This boy has shown an industry and applica tion worthy of all praise and our Farmers Club by its first act after permanent or ganization should present him an appro- i priate testimonial of the approbation of the Club for his industry and zeal. This ; incident demonstrates that Florida only ; needs laborers of the right sort to devel ope her resources and show her lands equal to any upland in the latitude.” Mrs. Elizabeth Cody Stanton, the lady antagonist of Hon. James Brooks, for Congress, received eight votes—some say she only received four. Rather a poor turn out for her party.— Exchange. New« Items. Ccn. I.ojipfstreet is on a visit to Bain' bridge, in this State. Two negroes, Dennis and Nelson crim-1 inais from Pulaski county, in this State confined, the one lor murder and the oth-, er for highway r. bbery were burned up with the jail in Abbeville, Wilcox coun ty, a few days ago. Wendell Phillips is out in one of his characteristic letters, calling upon Con gress to impeach the President and if that fails to stop the supplies of Govern ment. Numbers of ex-Confederal* soldiers are enlisting in the regular army. Large qoanties of war material con tinue to arrive in Canada. Five white men and a negro were flog ged last week in Richmond, Virginia so petty larceny. Some think that there is now no Con gress known to tin- Constitution. Quite sis many think that there is no Constitu tion known to Cong ress. A Memphis paper says : "Night af ter night, affraysj occur, men are shot down within a few yards of our office ; bullets are fired into windows, find it is <d—-n yon,’ click 1 bang t—‘l am shot 1’ nightly from one end of ti e city to the other.” A child died of starvation at Louisv lie on Tuesday. Its parents were lately from Georgia, and very poor. Dispatches received by the Governor General from Europe state that the pos sibility of trouble with the United States renders increased vigilance indispensa ble ori the part of the Canadian author ities. Returns to the General Land Office show that during the month of October 22,446 acres of the public lands were sold in the Slate of Florida for actual settlement under the Homestead law. The Charleston and Savannah Rail road sold at auction on the 20th, to James H. Taylor and others, for $30,000 The Womans Rights Convention met at Albany, N. Y., on the 20th. Lucy Stone, Mrs. Horton, Parker, Pilesbury, and Mrs. Fred. Douglas (negro) were prominent delegates. The Paris correspondent of the London Post says the relations between England arid the United States will soon be crit ical. The Vicksburg Clarion, of the Ith says Joseph E. Davis, the venerable brother of our ex-Confederate President, has been pardoned by President Johnson. The authorities of Mobile have convey ed as free gift, three acres of land within the Corporate limits of that city for the interment of the dead of the Union army. The Herald has a special from Green wich Observatory, England, describing <* «*“-■■ - I —*o(ifa as-en on the morning of the 14th. They are described to have been of groat beauty and brilliancy.— Five thousand were counted in one hour, and nearly twelve thousand in all. The Washington Star, evening organ of the President, referring to recent in terviews between the Chief Justice. Gen eral Grant, the President and Cabinet, says that the object was to "determine on a plan of escape from the dangers surrounding us.” John Surratt, allodged accomplice in the murder of President Lincoln was dis covered serving in the Papal Zouaves, under the name of John Watson and was arrested upon the demand of General King. He afterwards escaped into the Italian Territory. The Italian authori-; ties arc endeavoring to recapture him. j Secretary Stautou has appointed Colo- j nel W. H. Stewart and W. Flynn, of Washington, and A. Miller, of Cecil conn; ty, as Commissioners to award compen sation to the loyal slave owners ofMary land whose slaves were drafted during the war. The commission is created un der an act of Congress passed at the last session. Seven of the villians who threw the Naslivi’le and Louisville train off the track and robbed the passengers last week, h've been arrested and sent to Louisville. Most of them belonged to the 52d Kentucky Federal Infantry.— Active efforts are being made to capture the entire party. The Philadelphia Age says one of the methods resorted to by the radicals of Joilet, Illinois, to show their delight at the result of the recent elections in that State, was burning the Constitution of. the United States which was done in the opeu streets, amid the most vociferous cheering from the crowd of partisans as sembled. This shows where the teach ings of Sumner and Stevens are leading the people. The Methodist Chcrch. —lt is gratify ing to perceive the improvements mak ing upon this house of worship, in our town. One end has been taken out, aud it is now undergoing extension and re moddling. The end will be converted in to a handsome front, with a cupola, in which a very fine bell has already been placed. A popu ar outbreak against the Gov ernment of Spain is likly to occorat any moment Vague rumors are current that the Queen will abdicate to avert the threatened storm. The True Course- We have on many occasions endeav ored to point out that the true wisdom of the South i to avoid political entangle ments and devote itself exclusively to material development. The results of the recent elections have only confirmed the propriety of these views. No one can now doubt, we suppose, that tbe peri od is far distant when the Southern States will be accorded representation in Congress, nor. if it were granted, can we discover much practical good that would result from it. The majority of the dom inant party in both branches of Congresß is too great to be affected in any way by the same Southern vote, and the crimin ations and recriminations which might take place between excited politicians would only tend to embitter and alienate still farther the two sections. Under these circumstances we can only recom mend to the South a cheerful and patient submission to that which is inevitable, hoping and believing, as we do, that such a course will lead ultimately to a more composed and placid state of the ; public mind in all sections, and to the j final restoration of the Southern States i to the Union. The South has extraordinary advan i tages for production and manufactures, | and when its people have fairly embark ! ed on such a career and begin to real j ize in their own expedience bow much more su! stantia! are its fruits than any i which can be reaped in the barren fields ! of politics, they will have no cause to rc ! gret the new direction of their enterprise and energies. The first thing tobedone is to rebuild the fallen fabric of Southern ! industry to obtain capital, population and j labor, and all else that is desirable will ' follow Jin due time. To begin with poli j tics is to begin at the wrong end. We | are far from recommending the exclusive \ devotion of the South to local affairs, in | a spirit of sullenness or spite On the j contrary, we think that practical and j profitable industry is the best means in the ! world of cultivating a cheerful and happy I spirit, of diverting the mind from past disappointments, and inspiring it with hope and confidence in the future. By the exercise of forbearance and good temper in both sections, the present divi sions of the country will ere many years be healed. We appeal from the politi | dans to the people. With the people all real Union must begin, and if they can be brought to understand and respect each other, political relations will speed ily resume their former character. There is more probability, it seems to us, of I such a consummation of the hopes of all patriots: if the South will henceforth make the development of her resources the chief object of her ambition, and no longer permit any pretext to exist for making h ■ r a target for the envenomed shafts of party hate. Wars are but days in the history of nations, and not many years will elapse, before tbe patient con tinuance of the South in well doing will overcome the most inveterate sectional prejudices, and lay a foundation for the restored Union, and future glory of the country, which will be as lasting as time.— /tall. Transcript. Thf. Programme of Gerret Smith.—Ger rct Smith, the distinguished New York Radical, is not for blood and confiscation like his collcttgwoo K 0,,,,rA11y. but. favors a milder policy. lie says: Happy should I be to see our country brought to a just and permanent (peace on the following terms: 1. No more punishment—there has been enough. 2 No confiscation. 3. No disfranchisement of Southern of fenders. 4. The National debt paid and the se cession debt blotted out. 5. Impartial suffrage. I believe in universal suffrage, but in this instance I would insist only upon impartial suffrage, impartial suffrage among all men, white, black and red. 6. In deep sorrow for the suffering and poverty of the South, let the Nation ex empt her for some five or ten years from the imposition of direct internal taxes. In these taxes I do not include duties on foreign goods. 1. Mutual forgiveness, and, as far as possible, forgetfulness of the wrongs which each has done the other.” Give Gerret his negro and he becomes quite a sensible man. The object of the new secret order in the South, the "Knights of Arabia,” is supposed to be the conquest of Cuba, and it is reported that expeditions will sail from New York, New Orleans and Mobile this month, comprising in all $20,000 men.— St. Louis Paper. Yes, that’s the object of it. We don’t know much about the expeditions which are about to sail from New York and New Orleans, but that which is to sail from this port is about ready to start. The fleet, now lying at anchor in Frog- Pond, near the month of Dog river, is a very formidable one, consisting as it does of no less than two wash tubs and a slop bucket, each armed with rifled brick bats and a double-barreled cornstalk. It is confidentially believed that the expidi tion will sail as soon as the commanding officer can get his shirt home from the washer-woman’s. Let the Queen of the Antilles tremble. —Mobile Advertiser. A Wife's Clothing Belongs to Her self. — So decides a Virginia Court. The case was that of theft of clothing from a married lady.—The defense set up that | the stolen clothing belonged to the bus- I band and not to the wife, and, therefore, | that there was no theft of the plaintiff’s ; clothes as charged. The court took the matter into consideration and finally de cided that a wife owns her own clothing, and not the husband, and the thief was sent to the penitentiary. SaTannah Cotton Market.
