U I liA NNJfiU. W. I! liKXXKi’, 1 ilitor. II M. jorl-MTOSH, Associate THURSDAY, SEPTEMBER 4, 1873. The Haiiihrlitf/r tl n l.li/SinniiKl tin lit jmhlirttu Early. Tin- editor of the Hal abridge Sun, (who lie is xv.• cannot say, as the paper does „ot dis. lose his name,) Ims undertaken to show the people that the Republican pn tvis a great and good party, and worthy of their confidence and support. He ciJ'h'uv.jrs to borrow a little resjiecta p lit v for the party from the old wings, by pr- U tiding that the Republicans are but eiwrviug out the doctrines of the whig ptr!y. H « soys: “fa < .nr 1.-1 issue we referred to the g-cat. iucipk'S of the Whig party, ac cented hv the Republican party, and pan tie,thy euloreed in administration of tile govern m tit, andeited the reader to t!ie n itioiial eiirrenev in daily use, the manv inditdries that exist, throughout, the (T.tiou, and the great works of inter- j Hal irupri veinent which have been per fected. aian i viden.e of not only the foresight of Whig statesmanship, hut also of it high order of wisdom in the leaders of the Republican party.” Now, we protest against the idea ol id tit:fv ii _r tiie Republican with the once honored old Whig pm ty. The Whig partr perhaps committed some errors, hut they were never guilty of favoring su:'h absurd principles as many contend* ed for ly the Republicans. When did Chiv, Webster or Berrien advocate a cen tralised government, or that the States had no right to regulate their internal affairs, but that in everything they were subordinate to tin* (h-m-ral Government, or that tin' militaiy was superior to the , ,v i 1 authority, orthat the Federal Courts should have the right to deprive the State Courts of settling disputes be tween her own citizens, Ac., &e.P The writer then goes on to say : “We propose in this article to refer to the relation of the Republican party to our common Union, and to show that, a cardinal featuro of its faith is devotion to flag and country Yes, we are aware of the devotion to the flag whenever that emblem can be used by them to cover up the wrongs they Lave committed, or to screen them from the just punishment they deserve, and they, too, are ib voted to the coun try, ho long its tinder their code ot mor a*s, that country is the legitimate prey for plunder an t oppression. Who can recount the crimes the* have been per petrated 1 y the Radical party during the last ten years in the name of the flag and countrv ! H'.g theory that “the government of the Union is oars, no matter by whom ,or what party administered, and so long as it ex sts, it is our first duty to love, obey mid protect it," would all be well enough, if there was anything loveable in it. The emotion of love does not arise upon the mere volition of tlm party exercising it, but must be drawn forth by some thing attractive in the object, loved. Now, wluit is there in the Government of the Union, as controlled by the Radi cal party, that is calculated to [command the love or even the resprect of any true patriot ? When the government shows itself the protector of the rights of all, the peep/e and States, South as well as j North, white people as well as colored, the patriotism that has so long languish- ' ed and declined under the rule of our op pressors, may begin to revive and flour ish. County Economy, We understand that some have eon eluded, from the article in last week’s Banh t-.it, on the “Support of the Indigent milt Helpless,” that we were not favorable to county economy. We certainly never intended to advocate extravagance, and we are sure such a deduction is not fair or legitimate, from our article. W e said, in so many words, “we are in favor of an economical administration of county af fairs, and would not bo understood to advocate giving aid to those not entitled : to it.” Some may prefer to misunder stand us, and no amount of explication ; or protest could satisfy them. We re- | lueuilier the old adage, “Convince a man ; against his will, Ac., Ac." We do say, however, to refuse aid to the poor who | are justly entitled to assistance from the j county, is not only unfair to them, but is a discrimination against the liberal and j p, lie rous, who will contribute of their) vmate means, rather than the afflicted) ihould go unrelieved. Against all such ! s utrrrted economy, whether practiced (_’i unty. State or Federal officials, we 1 niav wed prav, “Good Lord deliver us. IHre.t Importation at Savannah. We see by the papers that an effort is j now 1 1 icing made to establish a line of I Steamships 1s t w een Savannah and T.iv- i crpool. Col. Nelson Tift, of Albany, is ) actively eugeged in perfecting arrange ments to insure success to the enterprise, 1 and with this view has i-vat .-dug many of our principal cities. If he can succeed in securing the co-oporation of those , cities and the Railroads connecting them with the city of Savannah, we will have j no tear of failure. Col. Tift is well known as a man of sense and of untiring , ' and if the scheme j la- at a.. pr.w Real, he is sure to develop ! it- .1 Tr /> to t ot r/inf l —f tide Tint At ttermun - - The lirartlen Jlotrl-- ( oh/uitt Court - -Cro/ts, ilc. We always iike to go to Colquitt Court. It is Stull a pleasrnt trip. Un cle Tim Alderman lives about, twenty miles from Quitman, and about thirteen from Moultrie. And by starting after dinner it suits exactly to stop at bis bouse about sunset. And, reader, if you have ever enjoyed the hospitalities of that clever old gentleman, you will not blame us for looking forward with pleas ure to the night to he spent under his roof. Now, we claim to he a “traveled genth man.” True, we have not made the “grand tour of the Continent;” have never stood upon the Alps, or the Pyra mids -f Egypt ; never visited the Holy Land, or the wild mountains of Scotland, but so far as some eight or ten counties of Southern Georgia are concerned, we have crossed them in divers ways and times, in summer's beat and winter s cold, and have always been kindly eared for by tin' dwellers in these wiregrass re gions, but for cordial welcome, ar.d gen erous, unostentatious hospitality, we claim Uncle Tim cannot he beat. No wonder, then, that Captain 11. and our self concluded to spend the night there. Uncle Tim, before the war, was consider ed one of our most thrifty farmers. The loss of his negroes by the war, and of much what was owing to him, has of course considerably reduced bis means, but lie did not sit, down in idleness, and mourn over his misfortunes, but though an old man, he went vigorously to work again, (lie says if ho lives until April, 1901, he will he one hundred years old.) Now he does not owe a dollar, and has an i abudanve of everything about him. j Raises provisions of every kind, corn, ! oats, potatoes, cane, (not hull grass) cat i tie and hogs. He conipla ns, however, | that he has to eat up all the meat, as ! the rest, of his family don't help much at this respect, whereas, when he had ne groes, they did their full share in getting rid of the bacon he used to cure. And j well may he complain, if he has to eat ! about fifty fat. hogs we saw ill his pens last winter. We imagine, however, that in addition to what he realizes from his cotton crops, he exchanges some of of his extra provisions with his less thrifty neighbors, for tbo greenbacks they thought they were making, when planting so much Colton. By the way, as we returned home, Uncle Tim presented Cu.pt. H. and our self some as line apples, grown upon his place, ns we ever saw raised in middle Georgia. They were very large, per fectly sound, and well flavored. On Wednesday morning, in company with two other gentlemen, who had learn ed to appreciate the hospitality ol Uncle Tim. we started for Moultrie, where we | arrived about nine o’clock, and put up I with Bob Bearden. And just here we will sny, that. Mrs. Bearden keeps as good a table as cun he found at any hotel in this circuit. We sny Mrs. Reardon, for Rob don't seem to take much interest in the hotel business, though doubtless he provides amply beforehand, or his wife would not ho able to spread such a table for her guests. We don’t wish to he un derstood as complaining at Bob, for he is generally out of the way, so as not to bother around much, hut,lets his boarders make themselves at home, and take care of thci elves. He is apt, to be on hand about settling time however, but his charges are not unreasonable, and wo al ways quit in good humor. At Bearden’s we found Judge Hansell, Solicitor General Mitchell, and a number of lawyers from Thoniasville, Camilla and Albany. As usual, we spent the time very pleasantly with the fraternity, dis cussing various topics of interest. We also met that genial editor of theThom asvillo Tutu*, Onpt. Triplet, at Moultrie, who seems intent on extending the circu lation of his excellent paper. It is use less to say he succeeded, for who could resist the persuasive eloquence of so po lite, elegant and “takeeious” a gen tleman. With great industry and ener gy, mixed with muscle of the suarilor in ntuifo, tin' Cupt. pressed the claims of his paper, and w e think the boys surrendered at discretion. Doubtless be would have boon taking down subscribers until yet. if the greenbacks had held out. Court passed off pleasantly, Judge H. and the Solicitor giving entire satisfac tion to the people. The good citizens of : Colquitt were out in force, and amongst j them we met many old friends, who gave us cordial greetings. A more quiet, or derly and better behaved people, never j assembled at any Court House. The! session of court was short, there being ; but little business to transact. The crops on the road are good. In Colquitt county the cotton we thought rather late, j but is was generally thrifty, and we saw no signs of rust or eatorpiller. A Berrien County Hull. While at Berrien Court we sow asplen- 1 did hull by the name of Captain, which j Mr. Wiley Chamblis bad on exhibition.

CEO HOT A NEWS. The Seaport Appeal commences a new volume this week. —Seed cotton is plentiful in Blakely at four cents per pound. A Savannah negro attempted to “lift” six dollars worth of cracker beef last week, from a country woman who had carried it to market. He took the meat upon the pretence of purchasing it, and requested the woman to follow him to his headquarters, where he would get the money and pay her. They had not proceeded far before the darkey attempt ed to step off, but fortunately a police man happened to be near by and cap tured the thief. —Bishop Pierce will dedicate Ebene/er j church, near Marrietta, on the Canton road, on the 9th of September. Mrs. Fleming, the wife of the editor of the Early County News, and twp of her children, were the victims of a pain ful accident last week. They had started in a buggy to visit a neighbor, and be fore they had gone beyond the limits of Blakely, the buggy ran over a pig, when the horse took fright and commenced to run. The buggy struck a stump and was capsized, throwing the mother and children to the ground, and bruising them severely, but fortunately breaking no limbs. lt is estimated that the corn crop in Gwinnett this year, will be sufficient, if equally divided, to furnish thirty-seven bushels of corn to each man, woman and child in the county. —We learn from the Savannah News that Col. John Screven has subscribed for fifty copies of Rev. Chas. E. Deems’ new paper, of New York, to be called the Christian Age, to be sent to the Univer sity of Georgia. - A postoffice has been established at Afton, Berrien county. Mr. G. E. Wil liams is postmaster, and mails for this point leave Valdosta on Wednesdays. A mu-away couple were married in Blakely last week. As soon as the cere mony was over, the groom went to the nearest grocery and wound himself around a dose of “overjoyful,” and with a sup ply in hand, returned to his newly-made, and thence to their rural home. The Hawkinsville Dispatch rises and says that if Rev. J. B. Culpepper, of Waynesboro circuit does not apologize l'or certain language derogatory to that paper, it will denounce him as a slanderer, etc. A men. Tutt’s pills will he in demand now. A negro in jail at Hampton took a dose of these purgatives the other day, and they worked him so effectually that he has not boon heard of since. Griffin has received 81,600 from the Peabody school fund. The office of the Eastman Times has been moved, and a year’s subscription to that paper is offered to any one who will remove the large sign from its former office to the present one. We notice this for the benefit of enterprising controe tors in this section. The best cook-stove will he contested for by four young ladies at the Rome fair. They have had a fire in Conyers, burning down the house of Mr. T. F. Sigman, and now the organization of a fire company is proposed. —C. A. Keeoh, General Lee’s Orderly during the war, is in Augusta in search of employment. Young Hammett, who is not. more than nineteen years old, and who was convicted of the murder of Roquemoro, has been sentenced to be hung on the ltith of October. Sixty-odd persons have joined the Methodist church at Luthersville, Mer riwetlior county, within two weeks' dura tion of a revival, which is still going on. Fifty true hills were returned by the last Grand Jury of Polk county. About thirty bales of new cotton have been received at Albany. We see an account of someone be ing drowned while bathing in nearly eve ry pa per we pick up. —Griffin colored damsels rival each other by administering fatal doses of poison. A forty pound 1 leaver has been cap tured near Sandersville. A Hawkinsville man lias heard that sulphur in the sicks will prevent the cholera, and has succeeded in procuring a piece of brimstone from a druggist. He now wants to borrow a pair of sinks with which to try the project. Wo arc uninformed as to what effect the appli cation would have upon the feet, but if ; it has a tendency to draw and absorb, | and he has any friends, we would advise them to apply it to his head, and get it j as near the inside as possible. —The Macon Telegraph and Messenger comes to vis this week with anew cap on its head, and otherwise much improved, —Rome Courier : The egotism of some j papers is absolutely disgusting. For in- ■ stance, the Atlanta Constitution of yes terday. in presenting an article from the New York Evening Post, on cotton man ufactures, introduces it with the follow- j ing, in large letters: “The New York Evening Post Endorses the Constitu tion’s Theory that the South is the Place for Cotton Manufacturing!” The Con stitution’s theory, indeed ’. Poes not the self-conceited jackass know that this has 1 been a theory before the Constitution j was ever dreamed of AN ENORMOUS JOB. Under the above caption, we give Wow an extract taken from the N. Y. Tribune. We only propose so say here that the Federal Government is responsible for most of the debts that are now hanging over the Southern States. If Georgia could get rid of the burdens imposed upon her by Bullock and his crew, her indebtednf ss would be a thing of nothing. And who is responsible for the reign of Bullock ? The United States - ergo, the United States is responsible for these debts. Who believes that Gov. Jenkins would have involved the State in any pe cuniary trouble ? And who forcibly re moved Gov. Jenkins from his office ? The United States. We agree, however, that it would be useless to pay the debts of any Southern States, if it were to be turned over again into the hands of Rad ical carpet-baggers and scalawags. When the Government is controlled by irresponsible parties, the question of debt never troubles them, since they nev er expect to pay any part of it. But the remedy for all the “public robbery in the State capitols of the South” is to let the honest tax-payers of the country manage their own affairs. “The proposition to add to the Public Debt of the United States the debts of the Southern States is to come before t he next Congress, and it is expected that bv the vote of the States to lie relieved, aid ed by some judicious bribery among the bark pay grabbers, will carry the thing through. We cannot imagine what ar guments will he used in favor of this job, but doubtless there are Congressmen who would undertake to prove it to lie a mer itorious act to rob a bank. Yet we re gard this as a serious matter neverthe less, because it is plain that millions of money would be made if bonds now worth from six cents a pound to ten, fifteen, twenty, forty and fifty cents on the dol lar could l<e raised in value to one dollar and twelve cents, which is the current quotation for United States currency sixes. Money could !»• paid out by the million to secure such a result, for the proposed robbery would put a dear one hundred dollars into the pockets of those who might own the now almost worthless paper whieh goes by the name of South ern securities. The scheme, we observe, is seriously advocated by Southern jour nals and very tenderly handled by some Northern ones, but we do not think it will meet with much favor from the tax ! payers of the North, whom it proposes to load with two hundred million dollars of additional debt. If such a law were passed It would he a serious blow to the credit of the United States. Every owner of United States bonds might reasonably consider his property to be at the mercy of a hand of robbers. It, would not take long to ' tranform the plunderers of the people | into plunderers of the bond holders. But, | even [supposing the bondholder tote stupid enough to consider themselves ! safe, what an impetus would lie given to public robberry in the State capitols of I Ihe South, aye, and of the North too! ; How long would it be before South Caro ; lina and Louisiana were again be tw my i or thirty millions in debt, with nothing to show for the money except a legion of | scoundrels just such as we now see, the i only difference being that their stealings ! would be five times greater ? The prob j able consequences of any assumpt ion of i the Southern State debts by the National Government are too horrible to be dwelt upon. We know that the history of the country is blotted with the record ot i some jobs of a similar character, such as the assumption of the debt of Texas, but God save us from this greater iniquity ' Let. those who, from weakness of judg ment, or over-confidence in the integrity j of carpet-bag Legislatures, or passion for gambling, or from pure misfortune, ] are the owners of Southern securities hear their losses without complaint. Let i them not seek to involve the nation in j their ruin." Vort Hoyu I liar. Below we give the statement ofCapt. Evans, of the ship Lady Dufferiu, recent ly arrived at Port Royal, as furnished to the Chronicle and Sentinel. Savannah, and even Brunswick, must look out for their laurels, or Port Royal will be con sidered the port of the South Atlantic coast sure enough. There is one trouble, however, about Port Royal. It is loca ted in South Carolina, and alas ! South Carolina is under Radical rule. This one thought is a sufficient set-off to many ad vantages : “My ship, the Lady Dufferin, arrived J at Port Royal bar on Thursday, 21st of August, at 2:30 P. si. We crossed the, bar at 3 v. m.. carrying thirty feet of wa- i ter over the bar, at two hours tide. My j ship was drawing nineteen foot. From' the bar to Bay Point I found eight to ten j fathoms of water. From Bay Point to j the wharf I found five to six fathoms of water. We arrived at the wharf at ti:3ff . p. m., and moved without the aid of a tug. This was my second trip. On the first trip the ship drew twenty-one feet, and > reached the wharf without the aid of a j tug, and could have done so just as easi ly had the ship drawn twenty-six feet, which is the draught of the Great East ern the largest ship afloat. The Lady Dufferin is now discharging one hundred ) and twenty tons of cotton ties, from one j hatch. I assert that if pushed to do so. I could discharge three hundred tons per j day. The cargo is taken from the ship straightway, and without expense of wharfage or drayage is placed on the ears and lauded in Augusta on the follow- 1 im; dav. I was offered freight for Liver pool at Port Royal, but could not take it because with the cargo for Savannah my* ship would be loaded down to a depth which would preclude my going beyond j Venus Point, ten miles from Savannah. For ships of heavy draught, I consider Port Royal the best port on the South; Atlantic coast.” JT'XTRA Violin l’a*c« sail Hsw< at I j PAINE A RAT L~ The JAve Jackasses and the Dead Lion. We copy the following compilation of facta and truths elicited by the excite ment created among the Radicals by the speech of oar ex-Coo federate chieftain, before the Southern Historical Conven tion in Virginia, a short time since, from the New York Day Booh. It will do eve ry Southern patriot good to read it; and, reader, if you want to see the frauds and villanies of the “big dogs” among the ! Radicals at the North done up in this style every week, we would advise you to take the Day Book. Under the above heading it says: Mr. Jefferson Davis took occasion to make a speech before the Southern His torical Convention the other day, and it is astonishing to see the amount of ex citement that speech has created in cer tain quarters. The Tribune and Tunes, of this city, have been especially exercised over its delivery, and all the jackasses of high and low degree have taken up the bray which has been sent forth at the ex- President of the late Southern Confeder acy, and a perfect assinego chorus fills the air. These magnanimous sheets, big and little, want Mr. Davis to “stay squelched.” They do not openly declare that he should be assassinated in the public street, but the tone and temper of these beautiful organs of Northern pub lic opinion seem to invite that sort of a sensation at as early a day as someone of their long-eared friends can conveniently attend to the little job. It is very true, and not to be forgotten, that Mr. Davis, in the late unpleasantness between the North and the South, did make the pat rons of the sheets, who are now flinging mud at him, “quake in their bools" lor four years or so, and that he, with his six millions of white population, with no re sources, which made up the short-lived Confederacy, kept the Northern twenty millions, with plenty of resources who fought him at bay for those four long years; it is also on the record that his de feat was purchased by a most terrible sacrifice of lives and money, and that on the part of the North it was one of the most disgraceful campaigns which the history of wars and conquests ever re corded. On one side was a mere compar atively weak handful, and on the other a huge host, strong in all the resources which bring victories, but it is on the record that the victories were obtained at so fearful a cost that one more year of such “brilliancy in the field and on the sea,” would have toppled the ent ire twen ty anti-Secession States to the earth, politically, financially and socially. The Tribune, Times & Cos. know and feel this, and having been so shockingly scared by Davis then, are trying to kick him to day. It is the picture of the dead lion and the herd of jackasses. They have not yet gotten over their chagrin and shame at being held at bay so long by President Davis ami his heroes, who were, in numbers and means, one to the enemy’s four! -and so they now take re venge by planting their cowardly heels into the politically dead lion’s body. Diamonds.- -The following short ser mon on the above text is preached by Waterman, in the Lad range IP porter: We had ear eyes dazzled the other day bv a display of diamonds such as we sel dom see, in the store of li. A. Watts. Mi Watts informs us that lie has just sold a ring for SSOO to a young man. who designs it as a present In his lady-love. We have a word of fatherly advice to give to this lady. Gentle lady, trust him not. The man who will spend SSOO for a glittering ornament for your fair hand, which would he far more beautiful una dorned, will not Vie able to supply you with beef and cabbage, and potatoes and corn meal. When the wintry Masts are howling you and lie w ill have to gather around that diamond and keep warm by the blaze thereof. Can you do it? When all that improvident fellow’s money is spent, can you and he support yourselves by the sparkle of that glass trinket ? Will a diamond make soup or waffles? Will it supply the place of molasses for your fritters, or will it be as gravy unto your taters ? Will it weave counter panes or blankets; will it dam socks and sew on buttons; will it scour tloors and wash windows; will it dig in the garden and saw wood; will it makeup beds and sweep out the house; will it run a sewing machine and at the same time rock the baby’s cradle ? Can he who so proudly places the brilliant gem on your fair fin ger make a support for you and himself out of that lustrous stone ? Gentle lady, we beg leave to repeat, trust him not; he's fooling thee. Give not encouragement to such reckless ex travagance. Take the advice of an old man who has grown gray in laboring for the good of his fellow-mortals, and ever lastingly h’ist that chap. Lift him; send him home; and tell him if he values your love, to bind it with a plain gold band and save the other §490 to buy furniture and provisions with which to go to house keeping. Gentle lady, we feel an inter est in you; we regard you with an almost, paternal affection; with our last word, as it were, we beseech you, trust him not. The Christian Enquirer. We have received from the Rev. Jos. S. Bakkr the prospectus of a paper which he proposes to publish, quarterly, under the above title. The paper is “designed to aid investigations of the principles and doctrines of the Bible, and to pro mote the diffusion ’of a knowledge of the dispensations of Divine Providence and grace.” It is not to be sectarian or de nominational, and will not. therefore, in this respect, be objectionable to any who may be disposed to take it. Dr. Bake is well known in this State (particularly among the Baptists) as a man of consid erable acquirements in biblical know ledge and ecclesiastical history, (both ancient and modern) and is an independent thinker, and a clear and forcible writer, and we doubt not his quarterly will prove acceptable to all who feel interested in the subjects he discusses. Being inca pacitated on account of his age and in firmities from engaging in the active du ties of the ministry, he hopes by his pa per to make himself useful to liis fellow men and, at the same time, earn some thing for his support. We hope that Christians generally and a generous pub- f lie will encourage him by subscribing for j his paper. For terms, see his prospec tus, which is crowded out of this issue, but will appear next week. Jtcu* C*f ijtioM On Account of the recent formation of a New Firm in this city, styled Goodman & Myers, we deem it due to ourselves and friends to CAU TION them again -t falling into the erroneous idea that they have any connection with our late Firm doing business here under that name. We purchased Mr. Goodman’s entire interest and GOOD WILL, principally on account of his not taking any active part in the business But he, in defiance of all business customs und visa ges. permitted his name to be used again.
