WHITMAN BANNER. QVZTVaJUN: FRIDAY, FEBRUARY 9,1872. Declined. —We have received a letter from a gentleman signing himself "Jus tfco,” who declares if we will pnldiah the same, a “hie smg will thereby he confer red on hamai.lty.” Wo “cannot see it” in that light, and most decline, for the reason that “Justice" failed to lurntch his real name. Tlie Coniiirmuise of I’t inciph n A compromise is not only a conces sion of weakness in the party proponing it, lint frequently necessitates the sur render of vital principles. Indeed, a political c< mpromise, in party parlance, is almost invariably the work of a co alition of hungry political tricksters lor the overthrow of the party in power, and the gratification of personal and selfish desires. A political compromise, there fore, is always wtong, and consequently suicidal. Men should never surrender principles, that arc founded in truth and I justice, on the niter of expediency. I Stability and determination should he i the characteristics of men, who claim for their avowed professions the great attribute of truth. Unless their princi ples are hedged about and guarded with j these two essential requhitrs, they cer tainly have no right to e.rpc(i for them j StrOCeKB. These remarks are influenced by the attitude assumed at present ly the Democialic party of America. For the j purpose, ns is alleged, es defeating the j re-eli cl ion of General Giant, they pro pose a fusion, < r (•< rrq routine, willi the j disaffected in the ranks of Radicalism. I In other words, the proposition is, that | the nnti-Grant, or Reform Republican!! j es the Country, shall make a nomination for President, and that the Democrats co-operate for the success of said ticket. It is designated the “’Possum policy "- for the reason that, the Democrats will ho expected to take no part in the con test other than vote, and “play dead.” It is contended that snob a party will; cleans and purify the political alums- ; pliero, and restore the government to i!« pristine purity. V' T o are too du'lofj comprehension to view this proposed policy in any such favorable light- First, because the originators represent j a strange medley of demagegneism and ] inconsistency. Liberal Republicans, so called conservative Democrats, disgrun tled Radicals, discharged oflice-holdeiH. and those who failed to get appointments under the present administration, con stitute the acknowledged leaders of the Reform movement. What can he ex- j peeled from such a wonderful fusion of disaffected spirits and political adven-J torerh? We cannot admire the crowd— i especially as it is headed by that Prince of scoundrels, Charles Sumner. Second , hi online the “’Possum policy” will hen simender of principles, mid dishonora ble to the maubood of the Demecracy 'Third, because the Democracy of this country can, if wisdom and moderation characterize its councils, sweep from power and place the Robespierre party that has throttled liberty, and diujjmoed the nation. Asa Democrat, we protest against a surrender of principles on the score of policy. We contend that the great heart of this nation is in hostility to the policy and principles of the party ii pow er; and all that in necessary for its de feat in the approaching presidential election, is a hold enunciation of princi pies, and persistent advocacy of the same on the part of the Democracy. What can the constitutional Democra cy of this country gain, by aiding in the elevation to the Chief Magistracy, a man of the political faith of Charles Sumner —one who has, perhaps for a quarter of a century, stamped under his unhallow ed feet, the charter of American liberty? Os what advantage to the Democracy— of what benefit to the country—to dis place Grant by an equally degraded, unprincipled Radical? The proposition is absurd, and none but milk ami-water Democrats will give countenance there to. If this country is to be redeemed from the power of despotism—if the Constitution is to be restored and re spooled as the safety anchor ol our lib erties the great work must he accom plished by the Dcmoeiatic par'v; and it can in ver consent to “play dead,” and aid in the elevation of a Radical to pow-; er. When it does.it must surrender principles to expediency, and thereby! forfeit the respect and confidence ol all Ironist men. The adoption es the pro pes -d programme of the Reform party, will provo the death knell of the Democ racy. A sleeping car conductor on the Mem phis and Charleston Railroad, named Trice, who circulated the scandalous story efan alleged I asm ol •!< fl Davis, knocked down Gen. R. G. Mowi v with an iron poker, near Huntsville, the oth er day, seriously injuring the General. The d.flkulty grew out of the Jeff Davis story. TVmperonce in Valdosta. Tlie f .Rowing letter, wl ieh we find in the Savannah Nairn, speaks for itself. We are snrpi ised that, any journal should make so seriously false a ch irge as the one alluded to: Valdosta G a, January 31st, 1872. Editor Morning New*: In your paper of a recent dale appears a paiagraph based oh an article from a seurrillous little sheet published at thin place, noticing the results of a supper given by the \%ldo6ta Division of the Sons of Temperance, v.liich I, as presid ing i slicer, and for and in behalf of the members of the older, di sire to correct. Every assertion of the party is a de« !.berate lie and wilful slander upon the order and the parties named, and has 8" been denounced hero publicly. Every number stands ready to prove the above chat go. So far from there being any intoxicating liquors, wine or cider drank on that cens’on by any member of the Division prrsont, there was not even the smell of the same upon llmir garments. I’lcase publish the above, and request ail papers wlii.-.h have noticed the article to do the same for and in behalf of the cause. W. A Pardkk. W P , For the Valdosta Division. Imiiurtant Documents.

From the Biographical Register, we take pleasure in republishing the fol lowing brief sketch of our esteemed Rep rcsciitalivo : Ih.v. James IT. Hunter. — Born in Jackson county, Georgia, mi the 21st of December, 1831, Mr. Hunter ireeived an academic education, sub-oqiieuliy stud ied the law, and in 1553, was admitted to the Bar. Engaging in the predict of tiis profession, IBs abilities soon brought him prominently before the public, and ho succeeded in obtaining a large and profitable legal business. Mr. Hunter also took an active inti rest in politics, as a Democrat of the State Rights School, hut m, ver he'd t slice be fore the war. lie entered the Con fed crate Army in 1801, ns Captain of Coin puny 0, Twenty-sixth Georgia Volun teers, and served with gallantry in Vir- j ginia until the latter part of 1864, re- j eciving Hvo severe, aid several slight | wounds, in the nntin rmia engagements in which he participat'd. Having been elected a member ol the Beeudature from Brooks county during 1804, I up t lain Hunter resigned Ids commission, j and, returning to Georgi i, tin k part in several extra sessions oiled by G v ernor Joseph E. Brown, performing his j legislative duties witli credit to himself, j On tiu downfall of the Ceid'i dumey, be- i jng intensely Southern in B-aitiineiit, lie i determined to leave the eountiy, and I had actually made preparations for Bin • departure, when, o:i the solicitation •>! j frit uds, l e abandoned the idea, liej l then resumed the practice of his profi s sion with success, to which he has al ways added Die occupation of a farmer. | Engaging in politics as a Democrat, lie was, in 1808, n minuted by the Deni'c racy of his county f r the Legislature, but was defeated. lit 1870, he was again the nominee of his parly, and iva elected by one hundred ami fifty major ity—completely overturning the adver-e maj u ity of three hundred, of iwo years previous. In 1856, captain Hinder was married to M.ss ilm hey, < i fb'hmke county. lie is a member of the Mason ic fraternity and a Bay Driest of his | Chapter. Since taking his matin the ffotiao, Ito has proven an able, dR. cut | member, net speaking often, it is true, lint devot'lig his entire lime and atten j tion to all measures calculated to hen | ofil his people. The Confederate Archives. Wtn. B Stone recently delivered an orati.m in New York. In the course of his remarks he gave the following j bit of information concerning the dispo | nit ion which was made ot the rebel nr ■ chives at the collapse of tl o rebellion: "On the morning of jMr. Davis’ cop tine,” says Mr. Slone, “Dav-d Tilgnian waited upon him at his bedside and said, | By this you may see that the enemy is j here; such and such is the disposition ol ! ihe roads. If you come with me you will he aide to leave the country in snf. - j iy. If you do not, you will be captured !in five hours.’ To this Mr. Davis replied, 1 cmtly, lie ‘knew his own busim ss Best.’ Tilgnian continued: ‘Very well, sir; 1 j have bicn entrusted with the treasure and archives, and propose to secure them, even at the peril of the losj of your favor and my life. I shall start at once by the way 1 have marked out.’ The result is well known. In less than five hours Mr. Davis was a prisoner, but the archives were sale. V hen a few weeks alter, in the recesses of the forest, Tilgnian learned that all was lost, tie alone, with his own hands, buried the tieasure aud archives, and unless.dura g the four years that elapsi and between his parting with me and bis untoward death, lie revealed the spot, the si crot as to the whereabouts of the archives is forever buried. As lung as they can be kept from the ken of man, so long shall the story be a monument to our brother’s unswerving fidelity. Tin's is the true history of the archives of the Southern Confederacy, although rumors aro from time to lira- set ati at ot their being now in the vaults of this bank, and now of that.” \Yn. Tyas, who was Shot bv Singleta ry, in Cairo, Thorn is c >nnty, two weeks ago, dad of I is w< U> and. Preparing for War. The Savanna!

AH the forts on our South ern seaboards are being inspected and [int in order. Fort Sumter, Moultrie, Pickens, Pulaski and Barrancas arc be ing strength! ued and armed, and Pensa cola is being thoroughly fortified, so as to serve as a rendezvous for both sea and land foices. Every available vessel of the navy is being pul in fighting trim. The public will look with interest to the event that will demonstrate what all this preparation means. The Southern peo ple are for peace with ev< rybody, at least for the present, and the cause must be a very strong otic to enlist their in terest. A Traveler’s Opinion es Quitman, Dr. Babcock, the traveling cor ter jinn dent of the Savannah TtepidAican, writ ing fruin Quitman, under date of Feb. Ist, has the following: Qnilman, the county site of Brooks, is one of tlie prettiest towns ir. S mthwest ern Georgia. Tito Court House, occu pying’:! central position, looms up con spicuously, and is one of tlie finest and most commodious buildings of the kind; to bo found in this portion of the State. It was completed during the war, and paid for with Confederate money. A j handsome fence encloses the structure, and protects the many thrifty young trees, whore v'goriais growth promises; soon to impart additional beauty to tin- 1 square. 'The str- eta tire of unusual j width, and would effectually preserve; the huildings on the opposite side, in the event of a fire. Quite a number of in at residences ornament various portions ol the town, while the spires of three church es prove that Die citizens are not un mindful of their religions duties. The j good people of Quitman h and an op pur- | tunity, h r the first time, hist week of hearing the services, in their midst, ol j the ! pisenpal Church, and of listening to a m-miuii from the eloquent Bishop Beck with, of this Diocese. Quit man, during the late war, was fm three years almost the only outlet for the people of E int ami Middle Florida, as well ss for tlie troops employed in tin- different military operations, and ill this manner wits widely known, and a place of considerable importance. The road lending to Madison, in Florida, be came a great throng fare, and the fine of singes was totally inadequate to ac commodate the pressing throngs of trav elers. Many of ynur readers doubtless retain a vivid recollection ot the trials and severe joltings of the old stage lOUte between Quitman and Madison. Walking through the ca inelcry I oh- j served the graves ol fourteen or fifteen ; confederate s ddiura neatly hilled up and. j showing evidences of recent attention, : surmounted 1v a cross hearing the in scription, “Our Fallen Heroes ” The wreath of evergreen resting upon each lowlv mound sp ko ol woman's care and sympathy. The depot is inconveniently distant from the centre of business. Near this point is a large and handsome brick structure, ol imposing appearance, sur rounded ly a dozen or more neat cot tages, and designed for the manufacture of cotton and woolen fabrics. The nia etiiiiory, oktaiiu! 1 Bom the Bailey factory at Motitici 110, Florida, is now being put iin complete repair, and the busy t urn ! and whir! of the spindles w ill, ere long, mingle with the shrill whistle es the pas sing I >ctunotivc. The people < f Quitman are retnnrka ! hie for their quiet and orderly’ demeanor, l i'his desirable condition ot affairs, is. j doubt'ess, greatly due to the weight and efforts ol the Temper nice Societies, w hose influence is powerful, and whose numbers are rapidly increasing. Dick Yates. Dick Yates, once Governor of Illinois and Senator in Congress, is a living il lustration of the evil effects of Radical ism and whiskey. A cotemporary says j Dio other day he visited a, banking house j in Springfield, Illinois, and demanded SSO. It was refused him, whereupon he visited a saloon and asked for a drink of j whit-key. The bar-tender told him he ! had none, whereupon be grew so violent ; tiiat he was put out by force. Porsi ken, friendless and an outcast, he is now a perfect wreck, and even his friends h.ivi | come to the conclusion that the only ser vice he can render is to die. Dick Yates was a man of talents,but unfortu nately be embraced Radicalism, and as a natural consequence he took to low as I sociatcs and whiskey, which combined i brought him to his present deplorable condition. llis fate should be a warn ing to the youth ol the country. Stokes in Prison. Griminals laic sumptuously in North ern prisons. It is said that Stokes, the ! murderer of Fisk, rests his coiled head on lace bordered pillows. The odor of his cell permeates Die entire building, lie orders perfumes by tlie h-'X, and ev cry time the soup and hash for the com mon criminals is toted past his door he hr alts a bottle of musk. In a crimson- Inccj dressing gown, embroidered slip pers and silk sacks, lie smokes the time iw.iv, altogether the gayest hit of a criminal that ever lodged in Murderer’s | row. Tlic Democrats in (.'ongress. Tli«* Cinein.iti Enquirer Hays: "We arc pleated with tl.e manner in which Mr. Vooihees, of Indiana, and Mr. Beck, of Kentucky, improved the opportunity of the Lou'sana rascality to lash the ma jority in .Congress for their pretended Southern reconstruction legislation, of which this trouble in Louisiana is simp ly the fruit. It is the evidence of life that the Democratic Representatives have exhibited this session. It is grati fying to know that some of them, in their assaults upon the Administiaion, arc willing to throw off their soft velvet gloves and to strike home with hands encased in iron. What ti e Democrats in Congress want is bolderga and vigor. They have played the moderate and qui oboi nt role long enough.” The State K< Frauds. The Atlanta Cons'itvlion says that the Legislative Committee appointed to inquire into Blodgi tl’s management of I the State Road, are anearlhing such a mass of corruption as the world rarely sees. It says it is not proper, of course, to record their labors save as they are prac tically announced in arrests, and suits, but we can assure oar readers that the filthy facts are coining to light. It is j absolutely sickening. Steal, cheat,- forge, swindle, rob, falsify, have been the programme. Every species of expo-. client has been resorted to for plundering the road. Outsiders and insiders have I colluded, Road agents, merchants, Judges and every body else appear ci im inated. Relentlessly is the committee tracking i out the frauds. Arrests and suits a gainst parties little dreamed of arc rip ening. Foreign kbs not the Equal ok Xerrors. ; —This is a remarkable announcement, but nevertheless, according t<> the Con stitution of Ihe United Slates, it is true. .Negroes are now eligible to the offices of President and Vico President, and for eigners are nut. It was proposed lately, j in the House of Representatives, to: amend the Constitution so that Reimans, Irinli, and other foreigners, might bo eli giblc to the highest i fllce within the gift if the "people, and the proposition was rejected by the votes of Republican membeis.
