THE CENTRAL GEORGIAN.
have pointed out with so much exactness,
occupying seats in our legislative bodies ?
Or do you wish to produce the impression
that a majority of the Legislature are com
posed of such men, and that this stupid ma
jority pass those laws which are so very ob
noxious to the Liquor Reformers over their
heads in despite the exertion of the more
sagacious. If the former be the correct con
clusion derived from your remarks, those
few stupids can do little harm so, toiment
them not iu their glory, for they ‘glory in
their shame.” But if ou the contrary, those
who after being “weighed in the balance
(by H. R.) and found wanting in capacity
constitute the majority, and wield such a
tremendous influence upon legislation as to
carry the measures of their own adoption
over the heads of the wise ones: I can con
ceive no remedy i n this desperate emergen
cy, but to send my fiiend of Woodlawn to
the next General Assembly as moderator to
their wild and drunken fanaticism. Well
now, he may be seeking office ; and who
shall say that this is not the cause of the
outpour'mg of the vials of his wrath upon the
devoted heads of legislators ? Who knows
that he is not desirous to fill the seats of
one of those ungovernable stupids of the
lower-house—for surely such an one’s name
as he has depicted was never enrolled among
the list of Senators ! Who shall say that
he has not an itching palm for office, in
those troublous days of Liquor reformation
But in those days beware, for
“Where vice prevails and impious men bear
•way,
The post of honor is a private station.”
And I fear, my dear sir, that your pro
phetic pen is not sufficiently accurate as to
view with certainty and beyond the possi
bility of a doubt, the material of which the
next General Assembly will be composed,
and even in the event of your election to fill
the honorable office of Representative, you
might in all probability find yourself rather
uncomfortably situated, being forestalled in
your opinion, always expressed, as to the ca
pacity of legislators. You might be driv
en to the humiliating conclusion that
u fFhere knaves and fools combined, o'er all pre
vail,
IFhere justice halts, and right begins to fail,
E'en then the boldest start from public sneers,
Afraid of shame—unknown to other fears.”
Perhaps I may be ‘bearding the lion in
his den’ as II. R. has not yet declared him
self a candidate for office—I will therefore
hold off for further developement iu this
particular.
Now as to that strange society of men,
denominated the “Grocers Association ot
Savannah,” I leave them to answer for
themselves.
In the next place II. R. goes on to ex
amine the actiou of the recent Atlanta Tem
perance Convention—he says : “Their ob
ject is distinctly and boldly avowed. The
opponents ofthe Retail system desire sim
ply to obtain the right to say whether liquor
shall be sold in counties, or districts of the
same, where a majority of the citizens shall
declare their objection to it by ballot. At
present the dram seller is the only man
who has a right to say anything about it.—
And it would appear, by their acts that the
dram-drinkers aud drain sellers wish to con
tinue to have the right exclusively to them
selves. A sufficient answer to all this is
the principle we contend for—the right of
a majority. If a majority of the people in
a district prefer to have liquor-shops among
them—lot them have them ; the temperance
men, if there be any in the district, will
have to submit On the other hand, if a
majority in the district decide against grog
shops, the dram drinkers and dram-sellers
must submit. This is taking away no right
but restoiing equity.”
I hope I shall be pardoned for making
so long a quotation, as my intention is to
set forth plainly and beyond the possibility
of mistake, the views, of not only M. R., but
also the objects of the Atlanta Temperance
Convention. You will observe that it is
plainly stated in the above quotation “that
the dram-seller is the only man who has a
right to say anything about it”—the Re
tail of Liquor—and in the very next sen
tence he contradicts himself by stating that
the dram-drinkers aud dram-sellers wish to
continue to have the right exclusively to
themselves. Such a contradiction is too
palpable for comment. I will only remark,
that when the dram-sellers and dram-drink
ers are admitted to have a right to say any
thing upon the right to Retail Liquor, a
respectable portion of the community are
within your category.
Now as to u the right, majorities have to;
govern,” I shall freely admit, that as a
principle applied to governments, majori
ties should rule. But certainly my friend
II. R. will as freely admit, that it is sheer
justice alone, that the minorities also should
be protected in their rights. Perhaps he
may not recognize any such thing as the
rights of minorities, as he contends alone
for the rights of majorities. Be this as it
may with him, all fair-thinkers, no doubt,
will admit that when the dominant will of
a majority infringes upon the rights of a
minority, the rights of such minority should
be protected; there should be some inter
vening obstacle to unrestrained imposition.
And now arises the question, where shall
we look to for that restraint or whence de
rive that power ? My answer is, in written
constitutions or compacts ! And here, I lay
it down boldly as a principle, that the pro
posed change of the Liquor Law, “strikes
at the root of all constitutional liberty, or
protection to minorities. That lt uncontrol
led majorities are the most despotic of all
governments. The object, the very essence,
and the whole virtue of a constitutional gov
ernment is the protection of minorities
against ihe unbridled will of majorities.—
The theory of this government, is, that the
rights of every individual, without regard to
his personal respectability, is safe against
the encroachment of numbers. The ti ne
principle of governments is, the protection
of each citizen in all those natural risrhts
which may be exercised without interference
with the rights of others, and the punish
raentof those who so abuse those rights as
to infringe upon the rights of others. •
Now suffer me to illustrate in accordance
with the principles laid down. And here
I will admit, for the sake of argument, that
the liquor reformers petition the next Leg
islature, and their requests are granted. In
other words, there shall be no license grant
ed to sell liquor, except upon satisfactory
evidence by ballot, that a majority in the
district desire it to be sold in said district.—
By such legislation are no personal or nat
ural lights restrained, no infringement on
the rights of others. What becomes, in the
midst of such legislation, of the rights of
him who chooses to take his social glass with
friends before meals in order to render di
gestion easy and healthful ? Is there not
an insuperable bar placed between him and
his favorite drink ? Doubtless you are ready
to answer me uo—let him buy it by the
gallon, take it home, and if it be a pleasure
to drink it, enjoy himself there, “where
none dare hinder or make afraid.” Mv re
ply is, lay no such flattering unction to your
soul—you Liquor Reformers are to make a
grand display upon the meeting of the next
General Assembly, you are to “push fast,
push strong, and all push together, that you
may succeed in getting your liquor bills
passed among its first work, and who is so
blind to surrounding events that he cannot
see that you reformers would so soon as
possible introduce a bill praying that the
sale of any quantity of liquor less than a
hogshead shall be considered retailing.—
What becomes of the right to property
when it so happens that your law prohibits
the sale of liquor within the limits of a cer
tain district, and at the same time one’s
whole property is invested in liquor ! Come
out boldly, fearless of consequences, and as
sert your motives—seek to cast no veil over
your intentions, that you may more easily
hoodwink an already credulous people un
der the false cry of “license or no license.”
The Atlanta Temperance Convention pray
ed for more than most people seem to be
aware. Hear it! It prays “that the whole
traffic be restricted by license, that no one
be allowed to sell in any quantity without
license, such license only to be granted up
on evidence that a majority of the legal vo
ters in the district where it is to be sold, de
sire it sold in that district.”
So I think that others will agree with
me that
“There are more things in heaven and earth
Horatio, than are dreamed of in thy phi
losophy.”—upon the rights of majorities—

Dangerous Stabbing.—On yesterday, a

they come to blows. During the difficulty,
Thomas G. Perryman a brother of the for

ly in the back and made his escape. Mr.
Little is lying iu a most precarious situation,
and but little hopes are entertained of his
recovery. Perryman was pursued, but up
to the present writing has not been arrest
ed.—Atlanta Rep.
Murderer Arrested.— The Vademecum
says that a man named Worshard, who
lately killed Samuel Brannon in Dale coun
ty, Ala., has been arrested near old Fort
Perry in Marion county, by a party of gen

back to stand his trial. Worshard resisted
the arrest, and severely, if not mortally,
wounded a brother of Brannon and a man
named Clark.

COMMERCIAL.
SAVANNAH MARKET April 30.
COTTON.—Arrived since the 23rd instant
4,797 bales Upland, and 184 do. Sea Island.
We closed our last review upon a dull mar
ket, the high rates demanded by holders prevent
ing large sales The market closed firm, and we
quoted Middling Fair at 11 cts.
On Saturday the market continued dull with
sales of459 bales at former prices. On Monday
the sales were only 79 bales, and on Tuesday 399
bales. On /Fednesday morning three days later
accounts from Liverpool, by the Humbodt, came
to hand, reporting prices unchanged, with a
moderate demand. This day our market was
very dull, with sales ot only 75 bales. On Thurs
day the market opened with a better inquiry,
but the high rates demanded, limited the sales
to 303 bales. That afternoon, still later foreign
accounts by the Canada were received^ The
Liverpool market for the week ending on the
16th, had advanced id., with sales of 60,000
bales
The only effect produced by the Canada’s
news yesterday (Friday,) was to strengthen the
views of holders. The sales were limited to 202
bales, viz: 11 at 8, 32, at 8J, 5 at 9, 97 at 9$, 16
at 10, and 49 at 1UJ cents. The market during
the past week has undergone but little change,
holders are firm at the following quotations;
which we continue, but purchasers generally re
fuse to pay them. Some sales during the week,
have been effected at a lower figure;
Ordinary to Low Middling 8| a
Middling to Good Middling 10£ a 10|
Middling Fair 11 a—
Fair to Fully Fair Hi a 11£

10|, 258 at 10£,26 at 10|, 170 at 103, 7 at 10J,
22 at II, and 17 bales of Masterdon at 13 cts.
RICE.—The week’s sales have been light in
consequence of the small stock on sale, and the
high rates demanded by holders. The sales are
only 260 tierces at $4£ per hundred pounds. The
exports have been 277 tierces, the greater por
tion of which went to Havana.
FLOUR.— We notice no change in the rate
of ttiis article. The transactions had been limi
ted, and we quote Baltimore at $5 50 a $5 75
per barrel.
CORN.—The mnikrtis well stocked with this
artic.e. Prime /Mute will bring 60 cents at
wholesale. 1L lots in sacKS, we quote it at 65 a
70 cents per bnshvl.
lLtfUON.— We hnve no very iarge sales to
report in this ertide. We quote Shoulders by
the quantity at 7£ a 8 cents per hundred, some
sales of Sides have been made in lots a 9 cents:
holders, however, now ask 9i a 9£ cents. Hams,
12 a 13 cents.
HAY—Sales of Eastern have been made at
$1 374 a $1 62£, and Northern is worth 31a
$1 37£ per hundred pounds.

time, and in demand. The cargo which arrived
on Thursday, sold from the wharf at $1 37£
per barrel. It has been retailing from store at

sold at 90 cts. per sack.
MOLASSES.—The cargo of Cuba, amount
ing to 296 hlids. and 21 tierces, received during
the week, and sold at 22a 23 cents per gallon.

bbls. from the wharf, at 29£ a 30 cents per gal
