THE EXPOSITOR WAYNEBBORO’, GKA-. SATURDAY, NOVEMBER 9. 1872. GRANT ELECTED As we feared, the country —North— has declared for Mr. Grant. We were never a very zealous “libcralist;” in fact, we bad but a small amount of confidence, if aoy, in the Liberal-Republican move ment, and were among tl*e “ last to fall into line” of tbe “ anything to beat Grant” — taking Mr. Gukrlky as the dernier resort. We do not mean to im ply, because Mr. Greeley was beaten, that we arc sorry for what we did for the. principles he represented, as sei forth by the Cincinnati platform. By no means. But, then, wo feel humiliated by tbe shabby trick of the so-called re formers of his section, who, after all their boastful pretensions and protestations, have turned again as the “sow to her mire,” or a “dog to his vomit.” And, really, in the language of someone (who ought to be immortalized) “we feel dog- bit!” We opposed the bull-pup fancier in ’6B, recently, and now; and, moreover, expect always to be on the side “where he is not”—and intend to fight on this as long as ho won't “let us have peace.” But the election is over, and there is no help for the result. The South, as ever in tbe past, has proved true —therefore, for tbe present state of affairs, and the continuance in office of the recently made L.' L. D. (which dop’t mean Long Live Democracy), Yankeedoodledum is* alone responsible. Look to your household gods! Let us, for the present,be content with good gov ernment within the boundcry lines of our own loved State, and Grant may run the big machine to suit himself — and relations—if he will only “ let us alone.'" Thb Augean stables of this glorious Republic remain uncleansed; and things about tbe “head-centre,” are still horse txU. A Nick Place for White Folks. —A Radical Judge at Washington re eently, fined a white restaurateur nam ed Freund SIOO for refusing to wait on a negro who came into Freund’s saloon, and demanded some ice cream. The ne gro it was proved had his hat on and was smoking a cigar, and otherwise making himself as disgustingly disagreeable as possible ; but then he was of the sacred color, and that made all the difference. The effect of this decision is to de clare that white men in that city who have fitted up saloons mainly for ladies are obliged to allow negroes, without reference to condition or character, to sit at their table and be waited upou by white girls where they are employed as waitresses. Peace Hangs on a Slender Thread. —The London Standard thinks that the peace of Europe rests upon a very questionable footing. There is not a corner of the continent which is not armed to the teeth. M. Thiers oponly boasts that he possesses an incomparable army, and all the elements of France— Radicals, Orleanits, Legitimists, and Imperialists—are united upon the ne- obtaining revenge upon Ger many as soon practicable. Neither Prince Bismarck nor Count Andrassy, the Austrian premier, believes that peace will continue, and the meeting of the .Emperors at Berlin was due to the desire on the part of the high contracting powers interested to come to an understanding upon this sub ject. Even Servia claims that she can put 300,000 men into the field, and while Italy is fortifying Mor.te Mario, on the Italian side of the Mount Cenis tunnel, to guard against the French and military preparations at Modane on the French side of the Alps, Spain is urg ing a demand upon England for the possession of Gibraltar. Involved in these complications, also, is the ques tion of the Pope and Prussia, introduc ing into the troubled arena of European politics religious dissensions. v -*■ There was quite a sceue the other day at Lemberg, in Posen. A Polish nobleman with the execrable patrony mic of Wostratzky, in the course of a historical lecture ventured to disparage the memory of Washington, whereupon an American present named Werner, interrupted the speaker, and called him a liar. The result was a fight, in which the meeting broke up in confusiou. [From the N. Y. Sun, 9th imt.] MRS. GREELEY’S FUNERAL. A Memorable Ceremony in Dr. Cha pin's Church. Yesterday the remains of Mrs. Hor ace Greeley were buried in Greenwood Cemetery. The few friends who were congregated at the house of Mr. Alvin J. Johnson, 3‘-3 West Fifty-seventh street, took a last view of the body, and then withdrew to allow the stricken husband and motherless daughter to look upon the dead alone. A few minutes before noon the coffin was closed and deposited in the hearse, and the ball-bearers, eight in number, preceded it iu four carriages. Follow ing tbe hearse, Mr. Greeley, his two daughters and Aunty Lam.son, were in a carriage, Mr. and Mrs. John F. Cleve land in another, Mr. und Mrs. Sam uel Sinclair in another, and a few of the most intimate friends of the family followed in the few coaches which the undertaker had been able to secure. The cortege moved.down Fifty-seventh stn et to Fifth avenuq, and arrived at the Church of the Divine Paternity, Forty Fifth street and Fifth avenue, at half past twelve. TIIE PALL-BEARERS. Then the pall-bearers, Messrs. John E. 'Williams, Augustus Schell, Waldo Hutchins, Dr. Edward Bayard, Alvin J. Johnson, Richard A. Manning, Marcus Spring and Isaiah Chamberlain, alighted from their carriages, and stood on the sidewalk in two lines, between which the coffin was borne up tbe steps and into ibe church. The casket was a remarkably handsome one of walnut, covered with black cloth, with silver mouldings and eight chased silver ban dies. On the lid was a massive silver plate, with the simple inscription, MARY Y. C. GREELEY. \ The coffin was covered with wreaths and crosses of immortelles aud exotics. As it was borne up the main aisle and placed iuside the chancel ou a catafalque over which was thrown a black vel vet pall, which swept the floor aud was strewn with numerous Sowers, Mr. Greeley and the other members the of the family joined in the solemn proces sion. The organ pealed forth Beetho ven’s “Funeral March,” and then the choir—a grand quartette —sang Han del's Anthem, “Unveil thy bosom, Faith ful Grave.” At this time the church was crowded almost to suffocation. Every available seat was taken, and several hundred ladies and gentlemen were forced te stand throughout the whole ceremony. Among the congregation were ex-Gov ernor P. O. Hibert of Louisiana, cx- Judgo Edwards, P. T. Barnmn. Geue cral John Cochrane, Etliau Allen, S. J. Tilden, George Hoffman, John L. Hoyt D. TANARUS, Marshall, the Count Johannes, and £.ll the editors and employees of the Iribune , dressed iu the deepest mourning. The multitude outside the church was as great as iusido, and it required the aid of Sergeaut Schultz and a platoon of police to keep them back. Many more were unable to ob tain admission than were in the church, and when Dr. Chapin began reading passages selected from the sacred Scrip tures everything was painfully still, and naught else could be heard but the minister's voice and the sobs of the fe male mourners. Then Dr. Chapin read the fifteenth chapter of the First Corin thians, relating to Christ’s resurrection. A CONGREGATION IN TEARS.] During the address and prayer the Misses Ida and Gabriollo wept aloud, their father and friends joined their tears with those of the motherless girls, and when the miuistcr ceased speaking there was hardly a diy eye in the house men and women were all weeping. The choir sang Zerner’s hymn, “They are not lost but gone before.” Then the benediction was pronounced, and the remains were again plaoed in the hearse, to be borne to Greenwood Ceme tery. As the immense congregation moved out of the church, completely blocking up Fifth aveuuo, it was estimated that there were at least ten thousand persons waiting to get a glimpse of the coffin and funeral procession more then one half Of whom had been unable to obtain admission to the church. Only the iro*t intimate frionds of the family accompanied the remains to G'xenwood, where a short funeral ser vice w ! 1 by Rev. Dr. Schweitzer, jrd : e e: ket was lowered into ti e grave. The Convention of Governors. The Convention of Southern and Western Governors, called by Gover nor Smith to meet in Atlanta on the 10th of November in the interest of tho Great Western canal, that is to unite by water the West and South, promises i to bo ono of the most important and | interesting gatherings of the day. Wo are informed that the Chief Executives of twenty four States have been invited and arc expected. The convocation of such a body of Governors, representing nearly two tbirds of the States of the Union, with their millions of people and money, will be an episode in the history of the coun try. It will be an event worthy of his toric record. Nor will it bo what, lias been so com mon; an ordinary political assemblage, but a meeting for a great business en terprise, that will revolutionize matters in the South.. The importance and effect of this enterprise cannot be esti mated. It will place the granaries of the great West literally, in the grasp of the South. It will make Georgia the supreme outlet for the produce of the Mississippi Valley. Governor Smith has taken hold of the enterprise in dead earnest. Atlan ta is making preparations to entertain tho distinguished body of gubernatorial guests in suitablo style. Proper com mittees of leading citizens are being appointed. The Governors will be dined aud balled. The details will soon be given. Altogether the occasion promises to be one of the most remarkable and in teresting in the annals of our growing city. —Atlanta Constitution. [From Columbus Sun.] Shooting of Deputy Sheriff A. H. Burch by Dr. J. C. Cook We are indeed glad to learn that Capt. A. H. Burch, the Deputy Sheriff and brother of the Sheriff of Russell county, Alabama, is not dead, as report ed late Saturday night, and has a fair chance of recovery. He was shot four times, two pistol shots entering the hip from behind, one in the arm and one in the thigh—all serious flesh wounds. It was thought yesterday morning he would recover slowly from his wounds. The following, we hear from listeners is his statement : A warrant was placed in his hands for the arrest of Dr. J. Carter Cook, son of Mr. James Cook, one of the most prosperous and respectable citizens in Columbus. The Doctor is a young man aud is running a farm in llussell county, Alabama. The affidavit charg ed him with an assault with attempt to kill, and the burning of a negro’s house on his (Cook’s) premises. Capt. Burch is a quiet, cool, determined man, but likes to do everything in a gentlemanly manner. He rode to Cook’s place in his buggy, reaching there at 1 p. m. lie inquired if the Doctor’s wife was at home, not wishing to disturb her, and received a negative answer. He then met the Doctor, showing him the warrant and told him it was his duty to arrest him, but allowed him perfect liberty. The Doctor invited him to dinner. Burch accepted, aud unbuck ling his pistol, laid it on the table. The Doctor possessed himself of the wcapou and told Bnrch if he did not leave, he would kill him in fl ve minutes. Burch left, saying he was only fulfilling his duty. Cook then had the advantage, but he would return with a posse. Burch had proceeded some three miles from Cook’s house on his way to Scale, when he was overtaken by Cook, who shot him in the manner discribcd, with Burch’s own pistol. Wo understood Cook was in the city early Sunday. • His friends say he has been advised to toll nothing of the cir cumstances. We give what we deem the bsst information. Capt. Burch is a brother of Mrs. Musgrovc and Mrs Malone, of this city. The affair is greatly regretted by all. Tho Baltimore Sun, commenting upon the arbitrary and offensive conduct of government officials in New York, purporting to be authorized by the pro visions of the enforcement act, comes (O the conclusion that tho tendency of legislation is to revive Alexander Ham ilton’s favoritcplan to establish a govern ment so powerful and influential as to create an interest in its support exten sive and strong enough to control tho State governments and people, and re duce them to subordinate importance Ne w A< 1 vertiseme ii ts. /*7T!murrAr^LnianTT^ V T Epmuwd M, Paui lit nppliei* for exon ption of poiaouo.l ty j and l will ptun upon tho §atno nt 10 o’clock, . m , at ray office in Waynesboro’, on tho 18th day of Novombor 1872.

THETaLDIN E, An Illustrated -Vonthly Journal, universally admitted to be the Handsomest Periodical in the World. A Representative and Champion of Ame.iran Taste. Not for Sale in Hook or News Stores. THE ALDINE, while issued with all (he regularity, has none of the temporary or timely interest characteristic of ordinary periodicals It is an elegant miscellany of pure, light, and graceful literature; and a collection of pictures, tho rarest specimens of arti.-tic skill, in black and white. Although each succeeding uumber affords a fresh pleasure to its friends, tho real value and beauty of The Aldine will be moot ap preciated after it has been bound up at tho close of iho yesr. While other publications may claim superior cheapness, as compared with rivals of a similar class, The Aldine is a unique and original conception—alone and unapproached—absolutely without competition in price or character. Tho possessor of a complotc volume cannot duplicate tho quantity of li-ie paper and engravings in any other shape, or number of volumes Jot Un times its cost; and then, there arc the chromos, besides! -A.3R.T ID EF.A.JrtTJVrEISTT - Notwithstanding the increase in the price o* subscription last Fall, when The Aldine assumed its present noble proportions and representative character, the edition teas more than doubled during the past year; proving that the Ameri can public appreciate, and will support a sin cere effort in the cause of Al t. The publishers, anxious to justify the ready confidence thus demonstrated, have exerted themselves to the utmost to develop and improve the work ; and the plans for tho coming yoar, as unfolded by the monthly issues, will astonish and delight oven tho most sanguine friends of Tilt Aldine. Tho publishers are authorized to announce de signs from many of the most eminent nrtists in America. In addition, The Aldine will reproduce ex amples of the best foreign masters,.sclectod with a view to the highest artistic success, and great est general interest; avoiding tueh as have be come familiar, through photographs, or copies of any kind. The quarterly tinted pint*#, for 1873 will re produce four of John S. Dav is' \iimitable child sketches, appropriate lo the four seasons. Those platos, appearing in the issues for January, April, July, and October, would be alone worth the price of a year’s subscription. The popular feature of a copiously illustrated “Christinas” number will bo continued. To possess such a valuable epitome of the art world at a cost so trilling, will command the subscriptions of thousands in every section of the country j but, as the usefulness and attrac tions of The Aldme can bo enhanced, in propor tion to tho numerical increase of its supporters, the publishers propose to make “assurnnoe doubly sure,” by the following unparalleled offer of Premium Chromos for 1873. Every subscriber to The Atdinc, who pays In ad vance for the year 1873, will receive, without addi tional charge, a pair of beautiful o(l chromps, aflcr J. J. Util, the eminent English painter. The pic tures, entitled “Tho Village Belle,” and “Crossing the Moor," are 14x20 Inches—are printed from 20 different plates, requiring 20 impressions and tints to perfect each picture. The same chromos are sold for S3O per pair in the art stores. As it Is tho determination of its conductors to keep The Aldine out of the reach of competition in every depart ment. the chromos will be found correspondingly ahead of any ttiat. can be offered by other periodi cals. Every subscriber will receive a certificate, over the signature of tho publishers, guaranteeing that the ebromos delivered shall be equal to the samples furnished the agent, or the money will be refunded. The distribution of picturesof thisgrade, free to the subscribers to a five dollar periodical, will mark an epoch in tho history of Art; and, con sidering the unprecedented cheapness of tho price for 'The Aldine itself, the marvel falls little sliorL of a miracle, even to those best acquainted with the achievements of inventive genius and improved mechanical appliances.
