QUITMAN BANNER QUITMAN: FRIDAY, NOVEMBER 2”, 1«12 Tlie Knrronrl'»«'•••* "•> lAlfrl)' Wl.nt N**lT An Ohio conlrnnporaty rorn n'y slates , !*’<•» tho Amor can people arc yearly be coming mere nn<i more carries* of then lilierlien, anil insensible to lire incrnnoh- , meets wMcb a centrnl Vii power, dnring I the brief period since t iso w>r, lias made open them. Tlic stnpendi.ns result of the late President istl election, show* flint a large portion oft! c conin'ori people hove become stultified. But little of tl at ‘ eternal vigilance,” wldtjb i» said to be "the price of liberty,” in now to be de tected in the cit xena and veters of tlrm republic. Instead, a feeling of indifier encc, or of false security, l as (listened op the popular mind. It may t o well considered a subject for alarm, when so large a portion of tic voter* oi the coun try, as the Radical paity now numbers, acquiesces, without question or investi gation, in aJlthe meatures uhiih their lea ders thrust upon Hum, This is a general, bnt a sure prepara tion for despotism;'and wo arc not sure | bnt that a despotic government would , bo pi city nearly what a certain part ol our people deserve, it wiil now la; coni paratively an easy mutter for Gen. j Grant to transform the presidential chair into a throne. There are plenty oi Rad icals who would look in silence, ami without objection, on slops which had, as their manifest ultimate olj ct, the crowning of Ultaes S. Grant as King cl j America. We do not say that it is com ing to this; but the tendency of political affairs, under the Control and direction ol Radical authority, is not such as to throw veiy bright rays of premise over the prospect for the future. Tho Radical party, in one sense, is now omnipotent. It may carry into ex ecution any designs whatever. '1 he policy of the Administration towards the South, has not had the lib ct to restore that confidence among the people, which is a necessary prelirninaty to national wel faro. Wo doubt not the rigor of this pol icy will bo increased towards such States as gave tin ir emphatic disapproval of the government ns now administered, at the lalo election. Tho people of those Stubs will, wo predict, have abundant reaaone, before the close ol the next four years, to wish themselves subjects of a kingdom, where, though with perhaps less personal freedom, all aro at Icitßt governeu niiKC, In our own State, the role of persecu tion has already been inaugurated Hun deeds of our best citizens are now ondei arrest, to be tried on frivolous chaiges, manufactured by spies and informers of tha Washington government. They are to be art signed before a paitiznn judi ciaiy, and prosecuted by native bailors, who seek revenge for imaginary wrongs- Wbnt will bo the rcsul, the future alone can develops. The A lilies of n Terrible Ghost. The Savannah Morning /fries is cer tainly entitled to eome description of premium. The celebrated spirit rap pets, the "Fox Sisters,” sink into utter insignificance— * Snrrency” is amy the— and the days of miracles have returned. Col. Thompson, the editer of tho News, vouches lor the responsibility of a lean who lias certainly given publicity to the grandest alsnrdily that was ever put upon rccoid. Tho individual, vended fir as aforesaid, but who is ashamed ,tq make known his residents, on one t eva sion had a “sweet heart;" s! e died, poor sonl, and left behind her portrait, which graced the mantle 1 1 his bachelor quar ter*. A few nights ago, this poitrait , was endowed with life, came down from the mantel, and held a conversation, by means of tbe mute’s alphabet, with the deponent. She then stripped him of his clothes, put him in his little lied, and tneked the lud clothes about him—the dear, tlit nghtfnl (M>ul. This was d-po twTit’a guaidiun spirit. Tlie next night a whole heat of evil spirits assailed his domocile, and dashing the crockery, fur niture, Ac., recklessly about, he left the bui'ding, when the entire establishment commenced revolving with terrible ve locity. The man who writes and publishes 1 trie wondcilul spiritual occurrence, de clares that lie stood calmly by, am! wit nessed (lies* supernatural events, with out the least excitement. Among many other woudufnl things cilid, is that wa ter, placed on a red-hot stove, turned lo toe; and in Ida vituals, pnparid ! y a faillifir laid experienced cook, was four and sticks, stones, and, wonderful to relate, an engsgetnent ring which he gave to his guaidiun spirit, when iu the flesh, many years pii vi, us. The ring lad been lost for years, and wm t!<u» uiys t< r onsly fooi.d- As it appears in the A’eirs, it is a long yhortlxj rigmaiole—and it it could be made to pass current, would be the Irg- i gest hoax of the season. It is laid ,>n lather to > thick, however, and its author is imilled to the premium! Tlioniasvillc Hotel Accommoda tion. Generally, the people of Thomasville 1 are kind-I.cat ted, clever a id hospitable, and r x'ond a welcome to the stranger who visits their beautiful nod enterplis ing city; but they are terribly deficient in hotel accommodation.* It is true there s n hotel building, near the depot, Rut j it, unfortunately for the good name of ; the city, dees not possess an arvotntno- datiog propi elor. We ate unacquaint ed w ith li e geiuhmau, and conseqitt fit ly do not desire to say one word to bis disparagement beyond that which the following incident develops : Five goa th inert, cd zens of Quitman. »i <1 tm m bers of tint Masonic order, visited Tl om a.rille on last .Monday, to participate in the ceremonies attending the laying of the corner-stone el Young’s College. They arrived at the depot at about 5 o’clock, a id, and discovering a fire in the tflice of the hotel alluded to above, entered and sealed thcmtfelVes around tl o stove. The weather was very Cold, and tho foe was very pleasant. In a j i, w minutes, however, a negro entered i and inquired if the gentlemen wanted j bods. He was informed that it was very I near day and they would not retire. The next query was, as to whether they j intended to take breakfast. A satisfac tory unsw’er not l.eing given, the "ma sonic brethren” wo re notified that they must leave the house- They marched loilh, into the cold stioetK, entertaining not very favorable opinions, ns to the hospitality and hnmanily of "mine Lost’ of the only hotel at Thomasville. With this exception, the Masonic dele gation fiOtn Quitman, are profuse in praise of t tie hospitality extended by the people of Thomasville. Tlie Boston Fire. Our exchanges are filled with particu lars and incidents ol the great fire in Ronton. It is now estimated that the actual cost will not < xceedsixty millions of dollars—one tldtd of which represents the buildings destroyed. Several hun dred thousand dollars worth of stolen goods have boon rt covered. 'J'ho courage and enterprise of the peo ple ol Boston is tints described by a cor respondent of U o New York Tribune; “The courage of the people is magnifi cent. When I passed through the burn ing streets at two o'clock in tin* mottl ing, 1 found men who had lost everything groping their way through the let id smoke, looking for the mins of tin it stoics to put up placards among the still burning debris, announcing their remov al to ether quarters. By daybreak « tie -1..1, vs rill .t;..irt«i doited w ith extemporised signs. Mncul- Inr, Williams & Parker, who occupied one of the finest of tho ruined stores, where they employed three thousand hands, began business this morning in the Mason A Ilainlin building. The great dry goods house of Sargent Broth ers caught fire at half-past right Satur day night. In half nu hour salesmen were on the way to New York to lay in a frc.-li Block of goods, and the firm re sume operations immediah ly. Their loss was between $150,000 and SI,OOO, 000. The Horse Altilurly in SRvnnimlt- The Mommy News ol Tuesday la-t. says that "it is an undeniable fact that ti e horse malady prevails to a consider able extent in our city at present, and although the disease appeals lo be u cceilingl.r mifil, Lite disastrous effects ol the w ithdrawal from service (ten porari* ly though it lie) es so many horses, is apparent. Bay street yesterday present rd quite a contrast to its u-ual appear ance during li e week. "The disease sot ms to be rue' ly gen eral. aid is confined to no particular lo cality. We find it in the livery stabh s, in the Fite Department, the city set vice, tho Police IVpailntent, the draymen sta hies, and among He lancy M ok of pii vate fit icons. The mol shave not es caped the contagion, and numberless teams arc laid op, "Notwithstanding this, however, we sie rr-liot.ty iitftulord that thus tar no great inconvenience has been occasioned and no delay has occurred in the trans portation of merchandise. The Draymen ore yet aide to fulfil! all their contracts lor the removal of cotton, although work ing with only about a third of their usu al number of teams.” I)fstiu'CTl"N rr Wool. —Eight million pounds of wool was destroyed b> the , Boston fire. Considering the product of wool in the United States, it is not prob al lo that the loss w:ll materially mfleet ; the market of woolen fabrics. In 1810, the clipping in the United States amount eil to one hundred millions one hundred and two thousand and three bandied and i eighty-h v. n pounds. 1.. Q C. Ram .u Ei.remit—ln the First D -Mi let in Mississippi, RQ U. Ran ar, line* member iif the Confederate army and Congress, has b-en elected to Con gress by 1.200 to 1,500 votes ever his Radical competitor. Toe and stingnistnal gentleman has many coum rlious In Geor g's, and his imputation is national. WTwu legislatures are in session at the same time in Alabama. Tlie Presideiil’* Salary. The Macon Telegraph says Hi it t move incut is cm font among the faithful to raise the President’s salary, 'which must be done before the expiration of the pres cut feint. Doubtless, if tlie official earn ings were rctricted to tlie salary, tlie $25 000 would be insufficient lo maintain the Executive Establish**»*ot. The scale of household expenses ha* risen no rap idly effete year* that there are lew fam ilies of dintinction in the country wte. and not expend more than thin every vesir. But it miiKt be re rn umbered that not on ly iK the President’s family house i at the public expense—bnt hi* gardens and conservatories are maintained in »he Hu me way, and hi* le osel (del furniture and appliances of every desrtoption, ex cept personal nppiret, swpp'ied I>V » lavish public expenditure; and so are many if not ail the alt< rifJUmts and ser ; vnntH. The mil ary in thin w>.y virtual ly exceeds a hundred thousand doVats, ; and to tl efte must be added the thou- ■ sand and one contributions ol supplies of every characb i fr ni private we rows., An it has never been questioned that Geu ! erat Grant has added vastly to his pri ate wca’th since he became President it is manifested be has found tbe Salary nod perquisites an ample protection against personal impoverishment from official expenses. United State* S:* nut or. Speaking of the snecensor ol Sell »loi Hill, whose trim expires with the pres cut Gouge ** Col. Styles, in ih« hot issue of life Albany Newt, say* that “if the Georgia Legislature gra s for favorit isrri, or shoo dbe caught in the name petty political Itiug that extend* its lam ideations to the next Gubernatorial elec tion, and embraces all the • dices, the election for U.
