“What is the difference between Dr.
Felton and a pronounced Radical?' 1
“I am not politician enough to tell,
and must give it up. What is it?”
“I give it up, too.”
Mr, Hayes’ message was published
in several Northern papers two days
before it was read to Congress. It was
purchased by enterprising newspaper
men for ?1,000. Who got the money ?
Did it go to swell the "profits” of Mr.
Hayes’office?
The Washington correspondent of
the Louisville Courier-Journal, under
date oi Dec. 1st, says:
Representative Felton, of Georgia, has
• during the day been much interviewed
by correspondents of Republican news
papers. He says bis letter has gained
him 5,000 votes in District.
We agree with Dr. Felton upon that
point. The Radical vote of the Dis
trict, as shown by the last election for
Piesident is a little over 5,000, only a
few hundred more, and every mother’s
son of them would have gone for some
other liadical in 1880, if Felton had
not joined them. Now, he will get
them all.
A CHEERFUL VIEW-
HAVES’ MESSAGE.
We are not of those who feel dis
couraged as to the future of our country,
or of the success of the principles form
ing the creed of the Democratic party.
The failure ef the party to carry Ohio
and the temporary defeat of the Democ
racy in New York, causod by the de
fection of a few men through personal
motives, are not such disasters as to
cause us to despond. True, success
would have been preferable to defeat,
but it may be, and we verily believe it
will be so, that these disasters will
cause the party to be more prudent in
all its actions, that from the nettle,
danger, it may pluck the flower, safety.
The war of 1861 made the South a
unit, or nearly so, udoo the vital queB'
tion of State sovereignty, bringing the
two parties of ante-bellum times to
gather upon a common platform. In
the North fully one-half of the popula
tion were on principle opposed to the
war, but many were carried into its
support by a praiseworthy feeling of
patriotism having its section as its first
object, and the whole Union as a neces
sary consequence. The Republicans
gaining control of the Government have
ho managed and manipulated all its
functions as to retain power now for
nearly twenty years. But a falling
away of a large number of original
StateB rights men is seen as the Radicals
more openly avow their ancient pur
pose of centralization. In Maine and
Massachusetts it is notable, as they are
New England States. The defection of
true republicans, using that word'with
its legitimate meaning, is constantly
going on, not to the Democratic party
perhaps, but to other parties in the first
instance, and now it is difficult for the
Radicals to carry either of those States.
The erroneous opinions formed as to
purposes of the South, which have been
attributed to the Democratic party by
the ignorant, are well nigh corrected
and the two patties will go before the
country next year with their principles
more clearly defined and better under
stood than ever before.
We have a stiong and abiding laitb
in the correctness of the principles on
which the Democratic party is founded
and established, and also in the good
sense and love of liberty of the Araeri
can people. Avaricious men in search
of office for profit and gain, ambitious
men who would give their earthly
all for power, and pensioners of
the rich bondholder and his
friend and pimp, the politician with
out principle, may decry the party
of the people and may say the popular
voice has pronounced against it, and
such may openly join the ranks of the
opposition, but when the people speak
after having heard and understood the
positions of the opposing parties we
have no fear of the result. This coun
try was not discovered that a king
might have anetber field for the exhibi
tion of tyranny, nor that a small man
might lord it over his fellows. The
great heart of the American people
beats responsive to the song of liberty
Radicalism and tyranny are exotics im
ported from the lands of serfdom and
servility. Conservatism and Democra
cy are of native growth. Then with
the Democratic party declaring in favor
of local self-government as guaranteed
by the constitution, the largest liberty
to the citizen compatible with the pub
lic safety, and the greatest good to the
greatest number without contravening
the demands of justice, we have no fears
of the verdict of the American people)
especially when the. opposite party 1b
committed to a different policy, that of
class legislation and favoritism to mo
nopolies and wpnlth.
The message of the President de
facto was read in both houses of Con
gress on the assembling of that body on
Monday, the 1st. A careful reading of
the document, which is too long and
too vapid for publication in a newspa
per that has any choice aB to the matter
it publishes, leads us to the conclusion
that Mr. Hayes wrote it himself. The
evident pomposity that dictates some of
its shallow and crude sentences indicates
the hand of a man of only medium tal
ent; while the hypocritical refrain in
regard to the right of suffrage and civil
service reform mark the author as one
who would wiBh to be considered hon
est and fairminded without native
strength of character to act in such way
as to entitle himself to that distinction.
Mr. Hayes informa the members of
Congress that they ought to be thankful
in the following opening sentence of his
message:
“The members of the Forty-sixth Con
gress have assembled at their first regu
lar session under circumstances calling
for mutual congratulation and grateful
acknowledgment to the Giver of all
good for the large and unusual measure
of national prosperity which we now
enjoy.”
Now, the literal meaning of the fore
going sentence is that thi3 “national
prosperity” is a matter mutual between
Congress and the "Giver of all good,”
and the balance of the people have
nothing to do with it. But he makes
another effort in which he gives John
Sherman the glory. “I congratulate
Congress on the successful execution of
of tho resumption act,” says Mr. Hayes,
and after dwelling with.pleasure upon
this theme, he reaches the climax, and
says, "The resumption of specie pay
ments has been followed by a great re
vival of business.”
But he ib not done with it yet, and
a third effort speaks the words of
truth and soberness:
Felton is likely to do this session
what he ought to huve dore ever since
he was first elected to Congress, that is
not push himself into tbe Democratic
caucus. He is no Democrat in any
sense of tbe word. He owes his success
to the Radicals, without whose votes,
support and “assistance” he would be
at home. Without the aid of the Rad
ical vote be never coaid have represent
ed this District; and with it he never
will again unless men we believe to be
true friends of a genuine democracy
join in with the Radicals. Potomac,
the Washington correspondent of the
Savannah News, says of this medico-
clerico-political office-seeker:
Parson Felton was in the city several
days before the reassembling of Con-
A number of newspaper men
attempted to secure some "views” from
him, but ho positively refuses to open
his mouth to the fraternity as regards
his recent letter or his future course. A
;entleman not of the newspaper guild
tiad an interview with him last evening.
While the parson would say nothing
definite as to his future course he inti
mated, tho gentleman Bays, that he
“The increasing foreign demand for
our manufactures and agricultural pro
ducts has caused a large balance of trade
in our favor, whiob has been paid in
gold, from the 1st of July last to No
vember 15th, to the amount of about
850,000,000. Since the resumption of
specie payments there has also been a
marked and gratifying improvement in
the public credit.”
There we have it at last. The crops
of the densely populated countries of
Europe have fallen far short of their
average returns, whilo America, cursed
by the destructive policy of Radicalism
in its political economy, has been bless
ed beyond measure by the Giver of
every good and perfect gift with fruit
ful fields and abundant harvests. This
the secret of our present prosperity
which has come to us despite the policy
of the administration, which would
without our abundance and Europe
scarcity, have inevitably resulted
continued depression of business.
Mr. Hayes favors the retirement of
the legal tender currency, and the ces
sation of the coinage of silver dollars.
Upon the silver question he says:
“The oendenoy of the proposition for
unity of action between the United
States and the principal commercial
nations of Europe to effect a permanent
system for the equality of gold and sil
ver in the recognized money of the
world, leads me to recommend that
Congress refrain from new legislation
on the general subject.”
All he desires, it seems, is for Con
gress to authorize the Secretary of the
Treasury to order a discontinuance of
the coinage of silver dollars, and await
the action of the “administration
through its agents, who no doubt will
be a commission of national bank men
who would drive every other kind of
currency except their own notes from
circulation. The prosperity of the pres
ent is the result, by the way, of natural
causes and may be turned to de
pression another year by a reversal of
crop yields. But Mr. Hayes thinks he
has an idea on the subject, of finance,
especially upon silver, and very decid
edly intimates to Congress that it had
better let the matter alone. In fact, he
as good as tells them that in his opinion
they had better “go slow as there is
hen on.”
Mr. Hayes fairly gives himself away
when treating the subject of franchise
and elections. For a mnn who know
ingly holds tbe highest office in the
Union to which another was elected by
the people by a majority of n quarter
of million of the popular vote, through
the aid and intervention of returning
boards of Radicals, committees of “vis
iting statesmen” and political deliver
ances of an electoral commission from
which justice and not fraud was to be
expected—for such a man, holding an
office to which he was never lawfully
elected, to prate of the rights of the
citizen as a voter, and the necessity of a
fair expression of the will of the people
at the ballot box Bmacks of the impu
dence of a ninny or the efforts of -a self-
accused criminal to place himself in bet
ter light at the bar of his own conscience.
But it is upon tho subject of civil ser
vice reform that Mr. Hayes grows most
elcquent, and in which he appears most
ridiculous. HiB theories are so widely
different from his practice that his sen
tences Beom to have been written for
the purpose of showing how partisan
his administration has been.

This is very hard on the Demo
cratic caucus.
Jefferson C. Davis, Colonel of the
23d Infantry, and brevet Brigadier
General U. S. A., died at Chicago cn
Sunday, the 30th of November. Gen.
Davis entered the army as a private at
the beginning of the Mexican war in
an Indiana regiment. He was made a
second lieutenant for gallant conduct
at the battle of Buena Vista. He was
one of the garrison that surrendered at
Fort Sumter in April, 1861; and was
made a Brigadier General in Decem
ber, 1861. lu September, 1862, he
killed Gen: Nelson in an altercation at
the Galt House, Louisville, for which
he was tried by a court martial and
honorably acquitted. Nelson! com-
manded the Federal forces in Kentucky
which had been defeated in August
previous by Kirby Smith at Big Hill
and Richmond.
North Georgia Conference, M. E.
Church, South.
Hayes, in his message, says : “Ev
ery citizen has an equal right to the
honor and profit of entering the public
service of his country.” The late la
mented Z. Chandler said once that
Hayes’ profit was 814,000 per annum,
as he drew 850,000 and lived on 86,000.
Mr. Tilden says the whole 850,000 is
clear profit to Hayes and a dead loss to
him.

Ol’d gentleman of sixty and his young
friend discussed the subject of human
longevity:
“Oh, it’s no use your arguing that the
the average duration of human life has
decreased of late years—there are no
figures to show it, no facts in support of
yourhypothesis.”
“Are’nt there, though ? Now when
I was young you could hardly walk a
block without meeting a revolutionary
veteran or a soldier of tbe war of 1812.
How many of them do you see nowa
days, eh ? They don’t live ae long as
they used to iu my lime—not nearly.”

Savannah News: Mr. Wm. Rule, “a
native Southern Republican, and editor
and proprietor of the only daily Repub
lican paper published in the lute Con
federate States,” in a recent interview
with the Washington correspondent of
the Chicago Tribune, presents very cor
rect idea on the subject of the Rev. Dr.
Felton’s Independent boom. He de
clares in few words that there is no hope
of the Independents succeeding in de
feating Southern Democracy, and
the course of his remarks he tells a cu
rious story of Judge Lochrane, one of
Georgia’s prominent Independents and
a Grant boomer, as follows :
“Lochrane,” says Rule, “is an eccen
trie fellow who thirsts for notoriety.
Being in New York once upon a time,
he gave a Herald reportei 810 to pub
lish his name. Looking in vain for it
next morning, be was very indignant.
But a friend pointed it out among the
advertisements, under the head of Per
sonal.”
Courier-Journnl: President Standi-
ford, of the Louisville and Nashville
railroad, Bays, without giving any de
tails or particulars ( which will bo made
public in due time) that arrangements
entirely satisfactory have been made
with President Cole, of the Nashville
and Chattanooga road. He also states
that contracts of great importance and
value to the Louisville and Nashville
road and the city of Louisville, and
which will open to us a territory in the
South which we have never had close
intercourse with, have been made with
President Wadley, and have been
signed, sealed and delivered.
Peculiar Magnetisms.
If a pail of water be placed within
six inches of either side of tho stem of
a pumpkin or vegitable marrow, it wll
in course of toe night approach it, and
will be found in the morning with one
of the leaves on tho water. If a prop
be placed within six inches of a young
convolvulos, or scarlet runner, it will
fied it, nlthough the prop may be shift
ed daily. If, after it has twined some
distance up the prop, it be unwound and
twined in an opposite direction, it will
return to it original position or die in the
attempt; yet, notwithstanding, if two of
tho plants grow near to each other and
have no stake around which they can
entwine, one of them will alter the di
rection of the Bpiral and they will twine
around each other.
An Eoglieh lady, an acquaintance of
M. Ingres, the well known French
painter, had a most awkward gait. The
gentleman recommended her daily to
take a long walk, balancing meanwhile
on her head a pitcher of water. This
he said would give the true poise to the
figure and necessitate the upright car
riage of the head and a smooth, firm
step. An eminent French actor who
prepares young girlB for the stage has
taken M. Ingres’ hint, and his pupils
every day at a certain time have to
walk about with vessels of water on
their hpnds.

Rose Floyd, of Daly Grove. Fla.
In presenting this newBerial to our readers we
feel that wo run ne risk when we promise tbe
lovers of pleasing and woll-wnugbt fiction’s
rare literary treat. To indicate its merits here
would be, in a measure, to forestall the interest of
the reader and thus diminish the pleasure which
its perusal cannot fail to impart.
Sombre Moadk will run through some eight or
ten numbers of tbe Weekly News. New sub
scribars should commence with commencement
ol the story.
Subscription $1 a year, $1 for six monthi.
Monoy can be sent by Money Order, Registered
Letter, or Express at our risk.
