TUESDAY MORNING, SEPT. 26, 1«1.
AVcrman.
From the 0*piUl-Don rintt’a Piper ]
In the discovery of great men, tirint his de-
monetroted himself to be in IntellectnJ Colnm-
bni. Every exertion he httmads into 1 tb ®™*“ n *
of human obaenrity hi* remtud to bii bnngtog
book aome lofty character, npoo vhom bai been
heaped honors without stint. The most of
these atupendnons enterprises biro reoe *j ,
the noUoe which they, porbsps, de*err«'<.
the public mind has alwiyi been left
of profound wonderment if to whit 7
tracked our much^ifted Tresident s attention to
that legal miracle, the crudito Akerman.
The moat that has heretofore b®*"
safed to inquiring millions has been thst Aker-
man was a native Georgian, that be was alaw-
^ or professed to be, end that
Uw officer of the Government for rea*oo*
known onirto his iuacroUble adf. In the mod-
eat pursuit of our daily avocation, the aecreey
of Ibis mystery has been revealed to ns, and we
hasten to ley it before onr readers with our nan
..M.ia.i.eeM It may l>e thst in thus doing we
violate a generous confidence, hnt perish ooofl-
denon rather than that in a matter of such pro-
found Importance the people should remain ig-
“SSrman Isa Georgian, m , wc
intimated. Well, just after that
the Thirty-ninth Congress, W ^ “
patched that national bed quilt, tb#
lion, to suit themaelres, "the great »ate of
Georgia" (we beheve that is the cnrront pliriseJ
bad oonsidenble difficulty ^
property Uws to harmonise with the fourteenth
.fnfm.lmewt- Ilere were decisions and cross^le-
cimiooA fjpa Tit and ei-cattudra opinion*—00
those property relation*- 1^8*1 matter* were
fairly olrtUf foinU .fustloes of the peace only
delivered jodgments to have them npset by the
higher oourta. The cause of aU thw **» the
negro, who bad been changed by this amend-
ment from a political fiction Into a legal fact
And so by Roncre! agreement a test-case was
made np to he carried to the Snpreme Court, in
order that come opinions migbtlm obtained on
which to base futuro action. This test-ease in
volved this important principle:
“When a negro who has not got a mnle and
forty acres of land marries a negroes who has
nothing, is his'n hor’n or hern hm n?
All the Georgian justiceh of the peace, when
this nnintioii was first mentioned to them, went
off and got insanely drunk. Bo did the jn«J
of the Circuit and Appellate Conrts. Even
ttopromo bench faltered as it studied and pon
dered over the knotty problom. To add to the
general consternation, tho price of whisky rose
steadily in the market
Just as the bench and bar and tho public wore
on tho to roe of despair* a still, small yoice,
weak as tho *qne*k which ia piped from the
moaioal soul of that other great <j©°rgian, A.
II. Stephens, was hoard saying, “I will decide
this fiueation." When tho proper acoustical in-
Testigation had been madc,U waa discovered that
tho amah voice in question came from tho not
over powerful lunga of Amos T. Akerman. The
hithorto unknown was invited to deliver an ad
dress npon this question, which hesubseqnently
complied with, and from which wo take this
eloquent, logical, and forcible extraot:
“I am asked, if a negro, under the fonrteenth
amendment, marries a negress under tho foar-
teontli amendment, whether, under that amend
ment, the property which neither baa becomes
the property of either, and which ? After a care
ful review of all the facta, I would say—Yes."
(Enthusiastic applause.)
The opinion so wore npon Grant that when
ho board of it bo said that there was tho man
ho wsntod for Attorney General It ia hardly
nooeasary for ns to say that Mr. Akerman bsa
maintained the reputation which he made by
tho opinion Miovo referred to. He has done
oven more. Ilia lateat oxploit in solving legal
Intricacies is still the talk of the day. Ho not
only cracked the nnts given him by the Civil
Servico Commissioners, hnt ho cffeetnally
Kmsalicd the kernels'.inside. In consideration
of our giving him a handsome notice, Mr. Aker
man showed im n printed scbodulo of the qnes-
tioua which theCivil Service Commissioners can
proscribe to clerical applicants under his con
struction of the late law of Congress npon this
subjeet:
itow many is five ? and why ?
Why nro ducks? and how?
Is it, or not? and wbenco?
Do oyster shells keep theso animals warm or
cold?
Doea n verbal promise require a stamp ?
Is the figure cine an exact symbol of one ex-
latino thing in the concrete, or is it an aggre
gated hieroglyphic, significant of three-fonrtb*
of u dosen in the abstract? and that boing so,
of eggs or apples, or only ear-ticketa ?
Mr. Aktnuan is of tho opinion thst all these
questions may lie legitimately asked under bU
lute construction of the law, and nono other.
It ia understood that ho will furniab them to the
Civil Service Commissioners when they reas
semble to October.
Vfe came near forgetting that Ur. Akerman
propoacs an ingenious inquiry at the close of
the above questions in order to arrive at the ap
plicant's party attachments. The question be
low is supposed to take the one who hears una
ware, end throw him off bis guard by the deli
cate way in which it is put;
“Are yon a noble, high-toned, educated sup
porter of the present administration, or are you
one of those sneaking, crawling, miserable
hounds, whoaro forever barking and snarling
at it ? If Ibe former, jou can have an office;
otherwise, not. Which?”
Anotheu "Tcru Goon" Deacon S.— Deacon
8. waa an anstere man, who followed oystering,
end was of the hard shell persuasion. The
Deaeon “allnz made it a pint'’ to tell his cus
tomers thst the money which he got for “inters"
did not belong to him. “The good Father
made the i&tera, and tho money is Ilis, I’m only
u atoourt,” said the Deacon. They do say the
Deacon bad a way of getting about leu cents
more on a hundred in hia peculiar method of
doing business for somebody else. Ono Sun
day morning the old fellow was tearing around
from house to house with a very suspicious
bit of currency in his hand* Borne one had
given him a bad fifty cent note, and be “wasn't
going to migrate until that air was fixed up."
•’Why, Deacon,” said one of hia customer!*,
whom he had taekled aliont it ? what's the odds »
What need jou care ? Tian’t yours, you know;
yon are only steward; it isn’t yonr lees. The
Deacon shifted his shoulder, walked to the door
unihipped his quid, and said j "Yais, that’s
so ; but if you think that I’m goto’ to atan’ by
an see Ibo Lord cheated out of fifty cents, you
are mistaken. I don’t foster no such feeiin.

SARSAPARIILIAN RESOLVENT
HAS MADE THE MOST ASTONISHING CURES
So quick, so rapid are the changes the body un
dergoes, under the influence of this truly Wonder
ful Medicine, that
Every Day an Increase in Flesli and
Weight is Seen and Felt.
THE GREAT BLOOD PURIFIER !
Every drop of tho Sarsaparillian Resolvent com
municated through the Blood, Sweat, Urino, and
other floids and juices of the system the vigor of
life, for it repairs tho wastes of the body with new
and sound material. Scrofula, Syphilis, Consump
tion, Glandular Disoase, Uloera in the Throat,
Mouth, Tumors, Nodes in the Glands and other
parts of the system. Sore Eyes, Strumorous Dis
charges from the Ears, and tho worst forms of
Skin Diseases, Eruptions, Fever Sores, Scald Head,
Ring Worm, Salt Rheum, Erysipelas, Acne, Black
Spots, Worms in the Flesh, Tumors, Cancers in the
Womb, and all weakening and painful discharges.
Night Sweats, Loss of Sperm and all wastes of the
life principle, are vrithiu the curative range of this
wonder of modern chemistry, and a few days' use
will prove to any person using it for either of these
forms of disease its potent power to cure them.
If the patient, daily becoming reduced by the
wastes and decomposition that is continually pro
gressing, succeeds in arresting these wastes, and
repairs the same with new material made from
healthy blood—and this the Sarsaparillian will and
doea secure—a cure is certain; for when once this
remedy commences its work of purification, and
succeeds in diminishing the loss of wastes, its re
pairs will be rapid, and every day the patient will
feel himself growing better and stronger, the food
will digest better, appetito improving, and flesh
and weight increasing.
Not only doee the Sarsaparillian Resolvent excel
all known remedial agents in the cure of Chronic,
Scrofulous, Constitutional, and Skin Diseases; but
it is the only positive cure for
KIDNEY AND BLADDER. COMPLAINTS
Urinary and Womb diseases, Gravel, Diabetes,
Dropsy. Stoppage of Water, Incontinence of Urine,
Bright’s Disease, Albuminuria, and in all cases
where there are brick-dust deposits, or the water
is thick, cloudy, mixed with sub dances like the
white of an ogg, or threads like white silk, or there
is a morbid, dark, bilious appearance, and white
bone-dust deposits, and when there ia a pricking,
burning seusation when passing water, and pain in
the small of the back and along tho loins.
