Tlie Gfeoreia, Telegraph and Messenger MACON, DECEMBER 28,'l8G9. Weekly Telegraph. Two editions of this paper are mailed to suit the Post Office facilities of subscribers—one on Wednesday and one on Thursday night. As the paper is oblige# to carry the legal advertising of numerous counties, wo shall accept only few short advertisements of other descriptions at ten cents per line every publication. The circulation of the Weekly is very large. Gone Up! The Senate, 83 will be seen by our special telegrams, passed the reconstruction bUl at half past throe o'clock last evening, and Georgia again afloat, without chart or compass, on a sea of uncertainties and. troubles. We have no time to waste in vain maledictions and regrets over this catastrophe. At best, it is bound to prove a great misfortnno; but the question of the extent and character of the changes it will superindnoe in onr condition all rests on tha point whether iho destrnctionisfs can, by the process of purgation, seouro a plastic majority in both Housos; or, in other words, whether they can pack a Legislature thoroughly under their control. If they can, their schemes to radicalize Georgia nro of the most daring char acter, and they will carry them out We will publish the bill as soon as we receive correct ono. It supersedes, of course, the regular meeting of the Legislature on the 2d Wednesday of next month, and that body os constituted by the first State election is to bo called together by Executive proclamation on a day to bo as signed, when it will be subjected to the purge according to the terms of the act. . We have heard that Aaron Alpeoria Bradley has already turned np for another political career in Georgia. Yankees in a Charleston Negro Court One of onr “dead hood” subscribers, who happened to bo over in Charleston the other day, tells the following: A fellow representing a Boston bucket factory came ashore from a steamer, carrying abont dozen diminutive specimens of his merchandise, and, taking up the first street he came to, offered them right and left. TTa fans not progressed far before a negro policeman arrested and carried him beforo a coal-black justice, charged with peddling without license. The sable mngistrato not only fined him the cool snm of $100, bnt roundly lectured the man of buckets upon his conduct He paid the fine and left “the Court’ and city in thorough disgust On the same day another drummer from New York was arraigned before bis sable honor, for the same offense. The drummer insisted that he had sold nothing, only been offering, bnt had made no salos. Whereupon the black dignitary told him to prove that, but while hunting up his proof ho must loave §."0 with him by way of baiL The drummer handed over the money, went ont and brought in three or fonr merchants who all stated that he had sold nothing to them. After the witnesses got through, the following decision was delivered: “Dis Court hab heard de prefixes and de conclusion to dis kase, and decides dat de yan- keo hab left do case in donbt; and it bein do law to gib de State de benefit of de donbt, dis court will keep do fifty dollars.” These are faots. Mb. Tomlin’s Letteb is as censorious and uncharitable .as it is short-sighted. His asper sions of that portion of the Press of Georgia which saw no,'practical benefit likely to result to Georgia from the expulsion of the negroes, and were willing to reseat them in conformity with the decision of the Supreme Court, if Con gress would havo waited upon the Legislature, are of such a character as to make a reply de grading. The rule and the tost of a wise states manship are deducible from the condition, and manifested by the results; and there is cer tainly nothing in the latter to warrant an arro gant and offensive dogmatism. The best that can bo said of theso pilots is that they did not understand the soundings or the dangers of the seas, and ran their ship ashore. They are bad navigators, and not in a condition to do graceful strutting on the qnarter-deck; or to corse other seamen, who understood the situa tion a great deal better than they did. Mr. Tomlin’s sagacity halts on every leg, and the best course wo can think of for all hands, is to be quiet, cautious and wary; for our chances to escape serious mischief lie very much in onr ability to watch, wait, and take all possible ad vantages the situation may offer as opportuni ties arise. Ban Fellows.—Butler says in his opinion the worst men in the South are the newspaper edit ors. Is not Gen. Butler ashamed to say so, when the Southern newspapers have given him so many gratuitous notices which have been of vast service to him among his constituency? Butler’s influence with his party could only be impaired by silence or good words from the Southern press, and he owe3 ns a debt of grati tude for a serviceable malediction which has constantly kept him before the people and made him the most prominent of the Badical leaders. Postil Telegraphy.—It is stated that the Postmaster General will, daring the present session of Congress, recommend legislation look ing toward the adoption of a postal telegraph system by the Fostoffice Department. Senator Ramsey, the chairman of the Postal Committee in the Senate, is said to be a very warm advo cate of this plan, and believes the day is not far distant when the government will adopt it. Tax Pope’s Health.—The apprehensions in regard to the health of the Pope were caused by the report which was circulated throughout Europe that he had an apoplectic attack and remained incapable of motion. The report is pronounced utterly without foundation. The health of the Pope is at present remarkably good. Talbotton Standard.—Messrs. John B. Gor man and John T. Waterman have started a suc cessor to tho West Georgia Gazette in the Tal botton Standard. Mr. Gorman is a clever writer and has been a very successful corres pondent of the Telegraph. Mr. Waterman is favorably known to many of onr citizens. We wish the new enterprise success. Equal Rights.—The Selma Times of Tuesday gays: “ There was a striko among the mail agents yesterday. A negro route agent having been put on the route between this city and Ma rion Junction, Mr. Lyttlo and tho other white agents refused to go out on the same train. As a consequence, there was no agent on tho train hence to Meridian yesterday.” Scott's Monthly yob December, now edited by Wm. Henry Wylley, continues Miss Barn well’s tale of tho bloody Queen’s reign. Mrs. Westmoreland contributes, a story nnder tho title of “Turned Authoress.” Jones and Brown or what’s in a name is concluded. Besides these are good many more articles, prose and poetical —original and selected. Americus City Council.—The Republican reports the election of the following ticket, last Saturday: Mayor, Dr. R. C. Black. Aldermen: A. S. Cutts, H. L. French, fi. T. Walters, M. B. Council, J. W. Uemley, J. E. Hall. Clerk and Treasurer, H. D. Randall. The agents of Congressional Radicalism in Georgia seem to manifest a great penchant for oounforfeit money, ~ ' ('ongreM and the ConMtilntiou, The discussion in the Senate over the Georgia bill, a* well as several other projects of Con; gressional usurpation before tlytt body, show that the pretence of a Constitutional Govern ment is getting too shallow and sickly to be much longer tolerated by Congress. It deceives nobody—not even themselves, and it is getting too preposterous and absurd to be otherwise than tiresome to men even of the very moderate abilities of those who now compose the Senate of flic United States. ’ ;T • The pretences upon which they claim the authority of fundamental law for constitutional amendments, extorted from States which they themselves declare are not States, are too lrans parent to mislead, a ten-year-old ecliool-boy; as, for illustration, that of Howard, that Georgia still had an alternative and an election in the case of the Fifteenth Amendment, because she could elect to remain out of the Union rather than vote aye for the Amendment. The alter native is political death. Vote aye and you are afire voter; vote no and. yon are a dead one. Vote aye and your Stale is in the Union, and to be coanted as-a voter; vote no and yon are no voting State at all. ' It was no wondeT that Matt Carpenter, of Wisconsin, in effect called upon Senators to halt and stop such talk—for no good could come of it. No courts could respect laws enacted in that way. Bnt Williams clinched tho matter on Carpenter by sconting at the idea that any court could go behind the declaration of Con gress, that the Constitution hud been legally amended. Snch a declaration was conclusive of the fact! Congress bad been sworn, and it would indeed bo inexcusablo presumption to as sume that they had perjured themselves. ‘ Congress and Georgia. Tho action of Congress towards Georgia can not fail to arouso tho patriotism of every ono of her sons who has a particle of lovo for the old State in his bosom. Not moro- the charac ter of the legislation than tho circumstances of deliberate insult and contumely under which it was adopted, are calculated to inspire a lasting indignation and resentmont. This State—we venture to say tho most orderly and quiet Stato in Uie Union—was publicly denounced in Con gress as a “hett," and her virtuous and intelli gent peoplg branded as guitly of the most afro cions crimes. How many Georgians, after this, can sympathise with a political party, guilty of such base and cruel injustice! How much of following will Bollock and the destructives gath erwith them by tile power of pelf and plunder, to plunge the murderous knifo into the bosom of old Georgia, and aid in snch a work of recon struction as is contemplated! Who is ready to write his name indelibly on the page of history as an aider and abettor in so foul a conspiracy For ourselves, we connsel watchfulness and silence. Perhaps the les3 the papers and poli ticians have to say, the better. The ability of the destructives to carry out their schemes with the Legislature is a point yet to bo settled, and we yet hope that patriotism will be too strong for the destructives. Burke’s Southern Farm and Home. Tho second (Deoember) number of this monthly is on onr table. It has a voluminous table of contents, among which wo notice tho following: Work for the Month, by the Editor. Cotton and the Cereals os Impoverishes of the Soil, by Dr.- Pendleton. Homo-made manures —No. 1. Tho best Mode of Compensation for Plantation Labor. Speech of Commissioner Capron. A paper upon Immigration. The Value and Importance of Oats. Prof. Liebig’s synopsis of Agricultural Chemistry. Mr. E. W Peabody’s prise Essay on the Cultivation of Cotton. These are all good papers uponim portant topics. Tho veterinary department has some good articles, and to the scientific Prof. Broun, of the University of Georgia, contrib utes an article upon Dew and Frost. Tho Household Department has many valuable culi nary instructions by eminent Georgia ladies. In Horticulture, there is also many valuable hints. The editor promises in next number contributions from Professor Broun, Dr. Pen dleton, W. H. Young, B. J. Moses, Col. Cham bers, Col. Lane, Mrs. Wm. N. White, and other prominent names—including “an admirablo paper on deep culture,” by Mr. Gustin. In an editorial on the late Fair tho editor, General Wm. M. Browne, pronounces tho Fair to have been a great success, and notwithstanding all delays and mistakes “an exhibition of which the empire State of the Sonth has every reason to be prond. We congratnlato tho publishers and editor of tho Farm and Homo on the anspicons results of their joint efforts to produce a valuable agricultural perodical. The Sonth Carolina War. The Charleston News says Gov. Scott is still accumulating rifles, accoutrements and ball cartridges, and not a week passes that he does not add to his store. The New York steamer of Friday is reported to have brought a large consignment, and by next summer the State will have as many Winchester rifles, sets of ac coutrements and rounds of ammunition as are needed for the coming campaign. There are in Colombia some Radicals bold enough to acknowledge that Gov. Seott is qui etly making ready, for the elections which tako place next fall. They avow their determination to carry the Stato at any cost, and declare that they will, if necessary, post a detachment of negro soldiers at every polling place whore a Badical majority is at all donbtfnL The hopo- lessly Radical counties will not bo molested; bnt Charleston and the up-country will be held at the point of tho bayonet. Interesting Books. Dr. B. F. Sams is canvassing in Macon for the following highly interesting and valnable works: Our New West, by Samuel Bowles; “Court Circles of the Republic,” by Mrs. Ellett, of Charleston, and the “Life of Christ,” by Fleetwood. The first embraces an account of the travels, experiences and observations of the author—graphic descriptions of the wondorfnl scenery, agriculture, gold and silver mines, farms, natural parks, etc., of our new Western States and Territories; also, Pacific Railroad, the Mormons, Chinese and Indians. The second work contains a description of life and society under eighteen Presidents, de scribing the social features of the successive administrations from Washington to Grant; also-with letters from Mrs. Robert Tyler, and sketches by Mrs. Mack. The Life of Christ is beautifully illustrated and illuminated. - «- The Legislative Test Oath. Tho “Act to promoto tho Reconstruction of Georgia,” was published yosterday in the tele grams of the Associated Press. The test-oath is long, verbose and obscure, and with its savage array of penalties, is perhaps concoctod in that shape, with a design. Tho hasty reader will oonclnde that it is in effect, the old iron-clad, and excludes every body who ever gave aid or comfort to the rebellion; bnt it really excludes none who had not previous to the war, taken an official oath to support tho constitution of the United States. Bond Injunction. Judge Sessions, of tho Superior Court of the Brunswick District, issued an order on the 19th instant enjoining the Brunswick and Albany Railroad Company, Wm. L. Avery and State Treasurer N. L. Angler, from signing and using any State Aid Bonds of said Company, or issu ing or circulating any endorsed by the Treasur er November 17, 1869. BY THE DEED CONSUMMATED. * The Georgia Bill Passed. Special to the Telegraph and Messenger.] Washington, December 21,4 p. sc.—The Georgia bill passed tho House of Representatives just as received from tho Senate at half-past three o’clock, this evening, by a vote of 121 to 51. Will send you the particulars later. Dalton. (lateb:J ' Infamy of the Georgia Bill Exposed' Ballock .Glories in Ills Slmmcfal Victory, In tho debate in tho House on' the Georgia bill, tho Democrats took the ground ihnt Congress liad no right fo constiinto itself an 'appellate court to pass upon tho acts of a State Legislatures. _ Voorhoea said ho believed in the doctrine of onco a State, always a Stato. If Georgia is a Stato for one purpose, she was a State for another, and Congres could not interfere with her. Etheridge denounced tho hill a3 revolutionary, and contrary to a republican form of government. Ho said it would make the people of Georgia slaves to this Congress and slaves to tho general govern ment. Ho hoped that' Georgia would not accedo to tho terms imposed, and that tho Fifteenth Amend ment would be resisted in every State,' by all con stitutional means. Cox said, nothing in tho reconstruction laws re quired tho seating of negroos; that Congress had no right to reviso tho legislation of a Stato. Bo spoke of Ballock wriggling around Congress to get Georgia out of .tho Union, and gave as a reason his opera houso and other schemes for plundering tho State. , ... WGHfcbLMnr. ~j(| Bingham moved a postponement- of the hill till tho third Wednesday in January, and said that despite party dictation, ho should vote against it Tho bill was unjust and unwise. Tho President never intended to impose an oath on tho pooplo of Georgia. Farnsworth coincided with Bingham. Butler closed the debate in his usual stylo, and charged the people of Georgia with disloyalty and outrage ous crimes, and made tho Radicals laugh by an in decent double entendre. Tho cierk read a letter of Bullock’s, saying that ho should, tho moment tho bill became a law, issue a proclamation calling tho Legislature together on the 12th of January. Tho motion to postpone was defeated by a vote of 117 to 54. Bullock was on tho floor, and exult ant over tho triumph of his diabolical plot. Dalton. Tele"’i“ -* CONGRESSIONAL., Washington, December 21—House—Voorhees is arguing against tho Georgia bill. Dawos, of Mas sachusetts, asked questions which indicated his in tention to vote for it.

We always thought Grantvilla was a good place, bat'now we know it. The. gold was mined out of the neighborhood of Grantville. Fifteen pounds of gold, we suppose, were worth in the neighborhood of $3,500. Tho samo paper has the following: Accidentally Shot Himself. — Yesterday morning, as a gentleman employed on the-State Road, was about to take tho cars at Griffin for Atlanta, his pistol fell on the floor with such force as to fire it off. A hall passed through the right leg of the gentleman (whose, name we did not lenrn) into his. right arm, infliirtawg such a serious wound that it is. thought that the arm will have to bo amputated. : A gentleman informs ns that Judge Qrr, of South Carolina, who has just returned from Washington, informed him that Gov. Ballock was Bpending money by the thousands. - He has. a fine suit of rooms, keeps a fine carriage con stantly at bia disposal, and- entertains elegantly and lavishly. Orr asked if Bnllock was a man of muoh wealth.. When informed that he was not,. Orr. said that he ought to be, to throw money away as he did. Jerry McBride, Switchtender on tho Cen tral Railroad in ; Savannab, was so fatally crush ed between two cars, on Monday,,that he died in two hours. The News tells the following: The Murdeb at WmtMABSH.—Wo published in the- News yesterday an account of a murder of a negro man on Wbitmarsh Island. The ne gro woman who was reportod to, have commit ted the deed was arrested at Thunderbolt on Sunday, and information sent.to the Chief of Police'in this city. Coroner nardt-n yesterday proceeded to tho plantation of Mrs. Amorous where the murder was - committed, and empan- nelleda jury. From the evidence elicited, it appears that the murdered man and his wife had a difficulty on Saturday, which however, had befen settled, when the wife’s daughter and. her son-in-law came over and tho daughter com menced abusing, her mother's husband apd at tempted to striko him with a hoe which, he af ter a struggle, wrested from- her grasp. The wprnan then seized air axe,; which was also about to bo taken from her, when sho threw it to her husband, who seized and delfc the unfortunate negro a blow on tbo forehead, felling him to the ground, -mortally injured. The female fiend, not satisfied with her husband’s work, took np hoe and gave the dying man a terrible blow in the side. Tho participants in this bloody drama seemed not (o realize their terrible crime, atd spoke of it as a mere commonplace affair. The matter is still undergoing Investigation by the Coroner, and the inquest will be concluded to day. The scone of the difficulty is on the same island where the murderers of Brodbaker and Brickman lived, and it is moro than probablo that tho murderer is ono of Bullock’s pardoned pets connected with that horrible transaction. Savannah.—Col. A. Q, Lamar, editor of the Sun and Times, just relumed from Savannah says in an editorial:- , Everything bears the air of thrift, progress, and that happiness which springs from well di rected and successful effort. The forest of ship ping along the wharves, the.rush to and lro of busy men, die rattle of drays,' the hum of ma chinery at the cotton and the roar of street ears, show the life, energy and enterprise of the men, while the well dressed and elegant ladies in the parks and squares, or the neat gar dens where the japonica blooms in exliuberance, and the orange tree bends under its golden bur- .deh, tell of the taste and refinement of the gen-, tier sex. The cotton trade has been heavy so farj Sa vannah having received more in proportion to the conntry tributary to her.than New Orleans. In another year this difference must grow great er, for by that time Savannah will have control of a continuous lino pf rail transportation to the Mississippi. At Vicksburg a bale of cotton is twp weeks nearer Liverpool by Savannah than by New Orleans, and as the railroads do their own insurance, freight on that bale of cotton to the Atlantic port is cheaper. So, in spite of opposition, Savannah must make the Valley of the Mississippi and the intervening country trib- utaryTo her. _ ' 1 What has given her this wonderful power and advantage? The answer is plain. . Tha manage ment of her great corporation, the Central Rail road, a much maligned and misunderstood com pany. In minor details its management may be.subject to criticism and animadversion. In deed, it may at times and in some localities be unfair and unjust, but the faot' stands that it haB mado Savannah the seaport of tho Sonth, and in this it has benefitted every foot of soil in Georgia and every man who owns an interest ih St. And for this, if for nothing more, this road is entitled to the earnest aid and support of Georgians of nil sections. Savannnh is quite as sonnd nnd healthy politically as sho is finan cially and commercially. Tho day of Bradloy & Co. is gone'forever, nnd onr brethren'or the seaboard have so much money and consequently so many friends that they smile rather then shud der at being a second time ejected from the ark of the Union.- Sflendid Record—National Life Insurance Company of the United States of America. This great company, chartered by special act of Congress, with its immense paid np cosh capital, is attracting no little attention through out the country, having issued moro policies during its first year than the largest company in tho world, daring any single year of its twenty-two years’ experience, prior to 1SG5. That its management is first-class, and that only ’the very best risks are accepted, is at tested by tho fact that ont of 7,000 policy hold ers only thirteen have died; three of these by acoident. When the risk3 of a company are so widely scattered as are those of tho “National,” throughout all the States and territories of this entiro republic, it is founded upon a. rock.

Jeuson—Sir: Yonr remedy known as tho “Southern Soothing Syrup” possesses peculiar value in my estimation. I tried two bottles of it in tho case of my own child—a delicate boy of fivo years of ago, whose feehlo stato of health gave mo much anxiety—with tho most marked and happy re- snlts. It allays restlessness, and nervous irritabili ty ;’ controls looseness of the bowels, while it in vigorates and nourishes tho digestive organs. From all I can see, and with tho nature of its composi tion, which you havo made known to mo, in answer to my inquiries, I have no hesitation in asserting, that I regard it as a most valuable discovery—for while possessing the most soothing sedativo quali ties, it may be administered without fear of incur ring the injurious and distressing effect, of opium, and its kindred narcotics. So satisfied am I of its merits, that yon may use this letter as yon deem proper. Respectfully, etc., | Signed J J. H. Gunning, M.

Hunt & Co., Macon, Ga. : Cuthbert, Ga., November 6,1869. Dr. J. O. Gibson : On last Monday atC o'clock I began taking the Powders you sent me, at 9 the tonic, and continued at intervals of 3 hours. To my surprise on Tuesday evening I was much better and could begin to walk. In 3 or 4 days I was as clear of pain as ono of my age could expect to he.- I feel Uke another person sinco using your medicine. : I- have been a sufferer for 20 years, often having to be fed, frequently could net move any part of my body.

What is the rational mode of procedure in cases of general debility and nervous prostration? Does not reason tell us that judicious stimulation la re quired. To resort to violent- purgation in such a case is as absurd as it would be to bleed a starring man. Yet it is done every day. Yes, ibis stupid and nuphilosophical practice is continued in the teeth of tho great fact that physical weakness, with all the nervous disturbances that accompany it, is more certainly and rapidly relieved by Hoa- retter’s Stomach Bitters than by any other medicine at present known. It is truo that general debility iaqften attended with'torpidity or irregularity of the bowels, and that this symptom must not'be overlooked. But whilo tho dischargo of tbo waste matter in tho syBtem i9 expedited or regulated, vigor must be recruited. The Bitters do both. They combine aperient and anti-billions properties, with extraordinary tonio power. Even while removing obstructions from tho bowels, they tone and invig orate those organs. Through the stomach, upon which the great vegetable specific acts directly, gives a healthy and permanent impetus to every enfeebled function. Digestion is’ facilitated, the faltering circulation regulated, the blood reinforced by a new accessory of tho alimentary principle, the fcerves braced and all tha dormant powers of the system roused into healthy action: not spasmodic ally, as wonld be the case if a mere stimulant wore administered, but for a continuance. It is in this way that snch extraordinary changes aro wrought in tho condition of the feeble, emaciated and perr ons invalids by tho uso of this wonderful corrective, alterative and tonio. Let common sense decide be tween Buch a preparation and a prostrating cathar tic supplemented by a poisonous astringent like strychnine or quinia. m uie-QMy of Aiacon.on too fir-G T., r 1 -) lin i 7" next, Wit bin the lcjal 1„ M J*:via frHt, property holonriosr to lh“ t. f ioS B oour. late of eaid of 1 fc, J »n» sixteenth of fifty“ e ix : f ">* S of the PonthwCTt J, cotntnon of the shares of stook of the ir e C, *Y of Jt.. ritt 250poumisofwrappiort 1 ^ “oo 3 » Imperial Champagne, pints- c i f « li&VStW of th ° REDIVIVUS!
