.QUITMAN BANNER. QUITMAN: FRIDAY, MARCH 28, 1813 liluc Spring Connell, No. -11. This Council of Uie Order of Doited Friend# of Temperance, located at Ous~ ley’a Station, A. At 0. K R., was or ganiz'd on )»#t Saturday night, with Hon. J, A. Ousley a* Worthy Primate. It number# about sixty members, who are all zealous laborer# in advancing the raose of temperance, and ha# accom plished much good in that section of Lowndes county. There i» but one bar ro. m at the Station; and in Saturday night last six prison# having taken up on themselves tho vow of total absti nence, the proprietor of the bar afore- tho following morning, that lie desired to sell oat his liqoors at •wholesale. The unprecedented prosper ity of the Temperance order at Ousley, is duo in a groat measure, to tho ut tir ing and zealous efforts of Mrs. W. II Ousley. Tlie Tlioinasrille Times. We huvo received tho first 'issue of this new paper, published by Messrs. Christian A Triplett, at Thnmasvi lie, and furnished to subscribers at $2.00 a year. It is a very neallv printed sheet, com mantes its existence with cightcuu col umns of advertising, and bids fa rto have apn sperous career. Its editorial cfjnmns give evidence of considerable ability, and on the whole tho city from whence il cminate# mny justly l e proud of its new representative. We wish the enterprising proprietors great success. Ckxars Takers or 1800.— The govern jrient has ut last resolved to do a riglit qoua act. By an act approved Ward) 3, 1873, Congress authoiized tho pay ment, without proof of loyalty, of claims for compensation for census of 18C0. The Interior Department, in order to save expense to claimants, Ims prepared the forms, and states that the intervention ol an attorney will not be necessary. This is the first recognition of tho oilitvttisbip of Southern men since the war. Mr. John Edmondson, deceased, com piled the census of Brooks county in ]§CO, and his widow is entitled to the pay. "ilrrsto Taxation.’’ Suppcoso our provincial brethren touch up the people on "heroic taxation," i for to this complexion it must at last, if i tilings are permitted to go on as they are‘now going.. Tho people do not ad mire taxation of any kind, mireb less that of the "heroic" variety, hot perhaps they may he coaxed, argued fooled or dragoomd up to it.—>SViu. Advertiser. ■ In our opinion tho Advertiser's “pro vincial brethren" arc about us uncom promisingly opposed to"lifroic taxation’’ as the people, whom it suggests should I>o."coaxed, argued, fooled or dragooned up to it,” The "brethren” cannot he made tho Instrument ot deception and oppression.’ Both Federal and 'State Governments have given us a sufficiency of t' e “heroic” character of taxation ever since the war; the people have boon etir feited, and are indisposed to submit to a further increase. The "In rnie” policy ol taxation, ss inaugurated in South Caro lina and Florida is working the ruin of those Slates, by forcing good citizens to sacrifice llieir property and seek homes olseivlntre.# It would have a similar ef fect in Georgia. - . -» . - From Oi i.qcitt. U. 8. Commissioner E C. Wade returned Wednesday eve ning from the counties cf Colquitt and Worth. What the object of this visit was wo are not informed? but suppose m was oir business pertaining to tlie U, S. Courts to bo held in Savannah next month. Col. Wade reports that James Gay, Loiria Gregory and John Bryant are still at large and evading arrest, and it is tho opinion of tlie Commissioner that "they are receiving aid, comfort, eu couragemi-nt from the people.” The soldiers are still there, but inac tive. What further Bteps the U. S. au thorities will take, if any, to arrest the parties named, Commissioner Wade seems not to know. "A bill has been .our dticod in the In diiinu Legislature, giving ministers fe«s fiom five t« ten dollars for preaching funeral sermons and more if the estate exceeds SIOO.OOO, the same to be a lien on tlie estate of the deceased.” And suppose tne estate of the deceased is not worth ten dollars, must the pooi devil he sent to the grave without ministra tions of the Church?

She was assisting her husband to bum log-heaps, when her clothes caught fire and being iu tlie midst of broom sedge, site was hooii enveloped in flames. She lived only a few hours. We find partic ulars of this sad affair in the Early Coun ty Nem.

The bodies of a white man and u negro were fund in tlie Savannah river last week. Tire parties were drowned when tiro steamer "Clias S. llardee” was sunk, a short time ago.

I’roposr and Sale of Stare Property. The press of Georgia is discussing tie advisability of the Stab! re'li'ig the Wes tern and Atlantic Railroad, as also all interests held in other railroad er ter prisrs, tor the purpose of realizing funds sufficient to pay i ff the heavy indebted ness so embarrassing at tlie present lima. When tlie suggestion was fiisl advanced, wo confess ' that it did not meet favor with us, Hot rr fiction bus matrrialiy views. Tlie Washington Oaxdte is a zealous advo cate if IHe measure, and presents sound reasons for tbe sale. It says the State! is in debt, nol so deeply, it is true, as to j mliarrass her under ordinary circum- ! stances, but now her peop'e are just re- i caperating from tho impoverishment caused by tho disastrous termination of j the war, they have been preyed upon by the most infamous horde of vampire car pet-baggers, and she is uow beset bv a ; .ring of Northern Sharpers, backed by i large capital, who are doing all in their; to injure her cr> dit and arc plac- , ing every obstacle in tlie way of her raising funds to meet tier legal indebt edness, iu order that they may compel her to pay tircir fraudulent and illegal cairns. Tlie people arc in n » condition bear heavy taxation if it can be avoid ed, yet it would be far better that they hear the heaviest burthens at present | Ilian to allow the fraudulent claims ol these sharpens to become binding upon : them. The sale ot the State property, or a ; large portion of it seems Hie clearest arid easiest solution of the rflfficulty. By this course heavy taxation may not only be avoided, but taxation actually re-, rluccd to a minimum, and only sufficient j to raise funds for the purpose of defray i ing tho necessary expense < f the gov- i eminent. This sale would also make us perfectly independent of outside cap tal • j ists and would place the good old State! beyond tire machination# of the moneyed sharpers and rings of the Noflh. V. S’- Grant, I’re sirle.jnl for Life. Leo, flic well informed cm respondent I of the Charleston Courier, writing about tlie inauguration ceremonies ou the 4th inst.. Inis this to say: The first impression made npo i all by j the unprecedented magnificence of this j inaugural celebration and the adulation I bestowed upon tire hero of the day, i that Gen. Grant is Considered us I’resi dent for life. Tlie whole proceeding*, j with its pagentry, reminds one ot a core nation. It is, in fact, a sort of mass | convention for tlie renomination of Grant for a third term. He, himself, it is bo lieved and asserted by fife intimates, bus no moio doubt of hi# third election than ! tie lias of tlie fact that lie has been twice elected. Nothing is mere desired by j him than a unanimous re-clecti >n, and to accomplish this he will endeavor to app. use, if not to conciliate the Southern people uow opposed to him. That be j will endeavor to bring the South to his; support there can4>" no doubt. That it is tbe purpose of the Radical! party to continue Grant in the Preside!)-, tial chair, is evident from the expressions made by hi# party journals. Ten days ago the Boston Transcript asked the j question: "Who will deliver the iuau-i gural address as President on tliedlh of March, 1877 ?” To .this query, tho New 1 York Commercial Advertiser, an extreme 1 ladicul journal, and blind adherent ol | Grant, replied: "Very likely li. S. Grunt will tiw tlie humble individual to peifm in ; Dial job. The country is growing wis er as it grows older, and realizes tlie tol ly of changing a really great President in defeicnce to a usage that lias nothing but its age to recommend it.” To our mind there is not a shadow of! doubt, that Grant wiil be President du ring life, lie is unscrupulous, and con- i tiding the Treasury <.f the country, be, can influence those who control public' sentiment, to carry out any measure he may desire. We may continue to have the form r f an election every four years, but the “cards are stocked,* and the re sult will always bo decided in advance. A Hoßßim.it Mitsdrr was c mmitted in that portion of Warren county known as the "neck, - ” on Saturday la* > irst., by a Mr. Ed. C ark, upon Una burly oft i* wife. We have beeh unable (?r see any one from the locality where the deed was committed, and are therefore unable to give full particulars. Rumor slut's, however, that ho struck her a blow with a large iron spoom on the back of in r head, cutting a Hirer* inch gash, he then piled tlie chairs and rallies over her life- I ss body, and setting lire to •them took one of his children in his arms and made his escape. Tire fire burned through tlie floor and the body it the unfortunate woman fell to the ground and was pierc ed through and through by the falling ol a partly burned sill the ragged end of the sill tore the liver, heart ad entrails out of the lifehsa body We also learn that the youngest of the children, which the field left in the burning building with its mother, was badly burned. A desci iption of the inhuman scoun drel will be published as soon as we can 'obtain it, ami we hope it m»y. lead to ar rest, spoedy conviction amt expeditions execution.— Harrentou Clipjt'r.

If Ifardrick is tire vile wrelcb j represented by the writter referred to,' (and wa do not doubt it,) it is a pity that the innocent Smith received the chstigation intruded foi the shoulders of the former: it was the misfortune, liow erer, of keeping bad company. The following is an extract from the corres pondence alluded to,: “In the year of onr Lord 1810, there lived in the county of Worth ONE JAMES HAHDKICK, who regarded not the marital tie; for, although he wss a man of family—-hav - ing a wife and several grown daughters —he bad such Little respect for them that he took a woman of vile character in the house with them, and, in their presence (so reported by his wife) was guilty of adultery—forsaking the bed of his wife for this vn.r.
