rbe Uailg |loto (bra. t. (. PEATBIB WM L SCRUGGS. PRATHER & SCRUGGS, EDITORS AND PROPRIETORS. ATLANTA. Saturday Morning, Feb’y 24,1866. Trouble* of a Disappointed Poli tician. Horace Maynard of Tennessee, a gen tleuea of line legal and and literary a tainnsents, but of Puritan extraction, •nd narrow prejudices; who never ene joyed the confidence of the people or the respect of his own party, has published a ▼err long, a very Sitter, very silly, and very injudicious letter, in which ho takes occasion to denounce the Southern Pres as disloral, and its conductors as hypos crites. His letter is two and a half col umns in length, and this alone is suffi cient reason for its exclusion from our col umns. It is in all other respects equal ly characteristic of the man: Full of bit. terness, without the redeeming quality of a happy style ; full of confident as sertions, unsustained by a single line of evidence ; abounding in epithets which under a change of circumstances have lost their force and meaning ; a general endorsement of the Administration, withprovtsoMas to every important mea sure of the Executiflgf squinting at the Radical policy of Constitutional Amend ments, yet eulogitio of the President who stands steadfastly opposed to it; •'aiming that the functions of the Union have been restored, yet doubting the loyalyty and good intentions of the peo ple oi thirteen states ; eschewing per* senal quarrels, petty rivalries, frivolous jealousies and self-seeking cabals, he calls upon the Radical faction in Tennes see to cendense, drill discipline, and close up their ranks against Conserva tive, amnestied, and “ reconstructed Re bels.” We defy any living man to read this anomalus document and locate its author. He is neither for nor against the President. He is neither for nor •gainst Thad. Stevens; and the Star Chamber committee. He is neither for, nor against taxation without representa tion. He is neither for nor against the Freedmen's Bureau bill. Fe is for Mr. Maynard. That is unmistakable. He is opposed to each and every man who stands in his way to office. That is equally plain. He is very bitter in his denunciation of a public press which he has failed to subsidize by condescend ding flattery. He cherishe sno good feeling for a class of public journalists . who aspire to lead rather than follow such politicians as Mr. Maynard. He leaves the mind in donbt alike as to his policy, or as to the nature of his individ ual aspirations. He, however, succeeds admirably in showing to the world, that he is wholly unfit for council—incapable ofjself control—blinded by the groseat prejudioies, smarting under fancied neg lect, and revengeful of imaginary wrongs. The Veto message. The issue has been made, the battle fought, and the victory won. Andrew Johnson is now President of the United States. Thad. Stephens is only his former self—a fanatical, revolutionary, fu rious, but ha.mless political bully. Chas. Sumner, is simply Mr. Sumner—the Ro besperre of former days, utterly power less to execute his deeds of blood. The Constitution lives. The principles of free government have been vindicated. Let the whole country rejoice. To be appreciated the Message must be read, when read, little remains to be said. It contains its own comments. Its language is unmistakable, as its style is clear and elegant. There can arise no quibble as to its meaning. All can understand it. All will acknowl edge its convincing power. No South ern man can read it—no true American citizen can read it—without feeling an affection springing up in his heart for Andrew Johnson. Status of the Negro. Ex-Governor Brown has written a let ter for publication, in which he says that “so far as legal rights are concerned, the negro is terms of equality with the white man.*’ That the sooner this fact is recognized, the better. That if we desired it, we would not be per mitted by the Government of the United States to enact and enforce one code of laws for the white man and another for the negro. That one law of contracts must be made applicable to both. That whilst the negro should not be allowed to occupy the jury box, or to exercise the elective franchise at the ballot box, he must have the same right to sue and be sued, and to testify in all the courts of this State that the white man has. The credibility of the testimony in either case to be determined by the jury under the rules of evidence which govern courts and juries on that point. And that when this shall have been done, he believes the military surveillance and the Freedmen’s Bureau will be removed from our midst, but not a moment sooner. Religious Notice.— Rev. R. Q. Mal lard, Pastor of the Central Presbyter ian Church, having returned, Divine service may be expected in that Church on next Sabbath, 25th inst. Don't find fault. Probably you have falls enough without finding any more. Those are the vainest of all delights, which, purchased with pain, end in it. In Chicago, on Thursday, the ther mometer ranged twenty.five degrees be ow zero. ’[For the New Era.] The Hlorning Cometh. The Veto Message of the President is published. The people of the United States have read it, and we venture to say, that, in all the land, whether it be in the North, where all has gone well, or in the South where all has gone wrong, thare is not an honest-hearted patriot, who is not dow a happier man. Thanks to thee, Andrew Johnson. If you could know of the joy with which you have thrilled the heart of a great people, you would feel compensated to some extent, for much of your life-long efforts to make the people happy. The circumstances that surround us are to be felt, rather than depicted.— The height of our loss; the depth of our sorrow, who can ascertain them? Be lieving that we were right, we appeal ed to arms. Without any Army, a Na vy, or a Treasury, we defied a Nation with all these; and more, a people, who, with open pons, incalculably outnum bered us. The fierceness of the strug gle came. The privations of our people were great; how great,*an All wise God only knows. It seems to us now, like the confused recollection of a frightful dream. Battle after battle was fought, and at last, when so much of the man hood of the South had gone to the grave, and when that matchless man of the Army of Virginia, passed his sword to the conqueror—then, stripted of pro perty and political rights, the South meekly bowed to that, which her heroic sous had failed to avert. The bitter ness of defeat —thorough and searching was hers. Then Andrew Johnson became Pres ident. What would he do? was the in quiry of every heart. We looked but we dared not to hope. Time passed.— The character of our defence during the struggle, whether viewed with refer ence to the courage or skill that was displayed, had won for us the admira tion of generous men everywhere.— But these were dispised by the madmen who were now in part our rulers. The Nation had triumphed when Lee and Johnston surrendered, and with that the true soldier was satisfied. But the Radicals took up the war when the brave and generous had closed it. His triumph was yet to be fought for. The Federal soldier had achieved success for the Nation, by passing, sword in hand, over the defences of the South; the Radical, now that danger had pass ed away, proposed to make bis con quest by passing over the Constitution. He sat himself busily to work. His policy could have been no worse for us if the Evil One himself, had presided in the Councils. In the meantime, the President had considered well his course. He put the South in motion. He suggested, and step after step was made, until we, by our own action, had organized the States and commissioned our Senators and Representatives to Congress. They were denied admission, for Radicalism ruled there. For these States there was taxation but no representation. The President, firm, vigilant, faithful, awaited events. His power was for defensive, not ag gressive purposes. Radicalism pro ceeded and after weeks of labor, their fiendish purposes were embodied in a Bill to enlarge the powers of the Freed men’s Bureau, which was sent to the President for his approval. The op portunity had come, and he was not the man to loose it. That bill violated nearly one half the Constitution of the United States; it created a great Na tional Charity House, the doors of which were closed upon the starving poor of the North,.but which were open to the indie, thriftless negro of the South. It created a great irresponsi ble power, that of itself superceded all else of authority within its influence and it gave to the President a patron age of power with which he could make himself what he pleased. The man who had declined the gift of a pair of horses, spurned this immense increase of Executive patronage and authority, because in it he read the downfall of his county. The Veto came. We verily that in all the range in our State papers there is no document equal to this. There i» scarcely a line that does not contain a deadly thrust at Radicalism, and in its entirety it is a grand consumate stroke for the integri ty of the Constitution. There is one portion in it that has a peculiar inter est for us. He pleads our cause. He witnessed our fall—he has known the sincerity of our professions, and now when he makes this issue with the Rad icals, he involuntarily pleads for us.— Let the heart of the down trodden South be glad. As surely as that at the Throne of Grace there is One who in tercedes for poor fallen man, so sure is there one here who has placed himself across the path of our enemy. He is strong in the possession of a Constitu tional power to check the advance of the foe. He is fearless; skilful and with him there is no such word as fail. fgWe advise no truculent conduct, no humiliating concession, but we do most earnestly urge, that the President shall not be encumbered with a single im prudent act in the South. The South has a twofold reason for loyalty—her solemn pledge, and grati tude to Andrew Johnson. For his sake, if she has no higher motive, she should stand by the Constitution. The touching manner of his plea cannot be forgotten. Our strength has been wasted, but our honor survives. * Subscribe for the Daily New Era, and read the news. Georgia Items.

GEORGIA LEGISLATURE. SENATE. Milledgeville, Feb., 22, 1866. The Senate met at 10 o’cloak, a. m. Prayer by Rev. S. E. Brooks, of the Baptist Church. After the reading of the Journal, Mr. Strozier introduced the following, .-which was agreed to: The Senate of the State of Georgia do resolve, That in honor of the aniversary of the birth day of Washington, and in honor to his comprehensive patriotism which embraced his whole country and produced counsels of wisdom, modera tion, justice and universal fraternity in the stormiest periods of her history, the Senate do now adjourn till 10 o’clock to-morrow morning. The Senate then adjourned. HOUSE. The House met at 9 o’clock, s. m.— Prayer by the Chaplain. The Journal was read and approved. On motion of Mr. Moses, of Musco gree, the action of the House on the bill to repeal the Act prohibiting the mar riage of first cousins, was reconsider ed. The special order of the day, the bill to authorize the Inferior Courts of the several counties of the State, to levy and collect an extra tax for the sup port of indigent widows and orphans of soldiers was taken up, and before ar riving at any action on the same, the House entertained a motion to adjourn in respect to the day, and to listen to the address of Hon. A. H. Stephens. Adjourned. The Radicals More Bitter than Ever— The Washington correspondent of the Baltimore Suu says that it was a mistake to suppose that the address of the Presi dent to the committee of the Virginia Assembly would serve to conciliate or appease the radicals, or even conciliate the more moderate republicans. The ef fect is quite the reverse. The President’s declaration that the government must bo preserved against both extremes, and that if Northern democrats stood in the way they must get out of it, excites their indignation and hostility. * There is no longer any hope that a conservative phalanx can be found among the Republican members. In regard to the constitutional amendment respecting representation, we find that seventeen Senators must vote against it to prevent its passage by a two-tbiads vote. There are eleven Democrats who will vote against it. Os course six Republicans must unite with them if the amendment is to be arrested. Os the six namca mentioned as likely to be cast in the neg ative, four are ultra radicals, wh® will ac cept nothing short of negro suffrage, and the other two are moderate republicans. The votes of some of these are uncertain. Gen. Forrest is now at his farm near Memphis. He has been there all the time certain parties had him en route for Mexico. He has never been arrest ed. There is no probability that he will be. In conversation with a gen ♦leman in Memphis a few days since he is reported to have said: “Tell all whom it may concern, “that Forrest may be found at any time on his farm, among his plows, hoes, and shov els, endeavoring to make a support, and that others would do well to settle down with like purposes, and let the world know that they can be found at all times to answer the calls of their governmen'. |As for me, I did all in my power to break up the government, but I have found it a useless undertak ing, and am now resolved to stand by the government as earnestly and* hon estly as when I fought it.” selected telegrams. Eittsbure,. Feb. 20.-Tho Fenian Con gress effected pernitinet organization to day. Colonel M. Murphy Wils re-elect ed Speaker of the House,!’ F. Ratts ford, of Philadelphia, was elected Sec lelary, and Capt. Nolan, of Pittsburg, Sergeant-at-Arms. The two Houses then went into joint session. Jas. Gib bons, President in the chair. The action of the Convention is har monious and enthusiastic. The deter mination is unanimously expressed for immediate effective and active meas ures. The message of President Rob erts and repot t of General Sweeney will be laid before Congress to-morrow. A largo public meeting was held to night, at which several large contribu tions were made and a large donation of arms promised. Washington, Feb. 21.—General Terry has testified before the Reconstruction Committee, and left for Richmond. It is stated that Mr. Doolittle will introduce a new Freedmen's Bureau bill to day, incorporating the President’s features. Brigadier General Gregory, Commis sioner of the Freedmen’s Bureau for the State of Texas, uuder date of Gal veston, January 31st, reports to Gene ral Howard a very satisfretory state of affairs throughout that State. The Second Comptroller yesterday de cided that disbursing officers, when paying fees to witnesses, are not re quired to deduct therefrom the five per cent. revenue tax, as <uch fees are not 'of the nature of salary to a Govern ment officer. The same officer, in reply to an inquiry addressed him by an American temporiarily residing in Sy ria, as to whether he has forfeited his claim to the bounty provided by law, in the case of his deceased sou, who died in the military police of the United States, leaving neither wife or child, has decided that no citizen, temporarily a resident of any foreign country, for* feits his right to bounty. His son was killed in the military service of the Uni* ted States, and it will be paid on proper application. The enormous amounts .paid by the Government during the war, and now being audited here, are shown by the fact that the accounts of Col. Crossman, of Philadelphia, now at the Third Audi tor’s office, involve disbursements to the amount of or over 8250,000 per month for clothing and army sup plies. The reply of Secretary Seward to. Mr. Bigelow’s dispatch, enclosing the speech of the Emperor Napoleon, in reference to Mexican affairs, has been printed, and will be forwarded to Europe to-dt.y. Mr. Seward alludes, with considerable se verity to, and denies the assertion of, the Emperor that our Government had been invited to join France in her Mexican in tervention before the introduction of French forces into the army of Maxi milian. It has now come to light that the in structions under which the Freedmen’s Bureau in Louisiana was so completely dis rupted in Novemqer, its two hundred schools brought to a close soon after wards, its freedmen and discharged col* ored soldiers arrested as vagrants in the the streets of New Orleans without trial or process of law, and the orphans of freedmen returned to their former slave holders as apprentices, were imparted bv the President himself, and that General Fullerton acted iu accordance with Exe cutive instructions. House. —Mr. Morrill said that it was not in order to allude to what had re cently taken place in the Senate, but hap pen what may, Union men will not for get they have a country to save. The treasures under consideration may be called the apple of the eye. The public credit it was proposed to plc’ge was not only on past accumulations and resourc es, but prospectively the wealth of 36,- 000,0U0 of people—who were more wealthy than any other nation of 50,000,- 000 upon the globe—in order to carry a loan on favorable terms. The present bill was only a patch on an old Govern ment tender act of March, 1865, so as to authorize the Secretary of the Treasury at his discretion to receive any notes, whether bearing interest or not, in ex change for any description of bonds au thorized by the act to which this is a supplement. This will confer large pow ers, but it merely substitutes a new debt for an old one. Our entire debt can’t thus be increased a single dollar. It was known that the Secretary of the Treasury contemplated a return of specie payments at the earliest practi cabl: moment. We have been fortu nate in our Secretary of the Treasury during the last five years, one of whom wo called to occupy the highest judicial station in the country. It was a relief to the loyal people when his successor, Mr. Fessenden, was appointed, com manding as he did, so much of the pub lic confidence here asked and received all they wanted from Congress, and did not betray their treat, and now we have a Secretary in Mr. McCulloch, whose conduct has won golden opinions at home and abroad. Indianapolis, Ind., Feb. 21.—The Union State Convention to-morrow will be largely attended. A caucus was held to-night for a general interchange of opinion and discussion of the ques tion of endorsing the President or Con gress. The conservative element seems to be in the ascendency. Both wings are disposed to harmonize. New York, Fcbi 21.'■ —Files ol Valp araiso and Santiago papers have been received up to the sixteenth of January. The,news of rumored mediation of France and England in the Spanish Chilian war, has not been regarded with favor in Chili or deemed of great importance. — It'is not expected that Spain will relin quish her pretensions. There is a diplomatic quarrel between Chili and Uruguay. The interchange of notes was continued until the offend ed Government of Uruguay stopped the exequatur of the Chilian Minister, and issued a decree prohibiting arrivals, sales of prizes, and threatening severe penalties upon all who infringe upon (hose laws. The approaching retirement of Mr, Wilson, United States Minister to Chili, is much regretted. He was a member of the Diplomatis ;a,and his remonstrance with Admiral Parefo is believed to have saved the city of Valparaiso from bom bardment. An engagement had taken place at Caddsville, between the blockading force and the Chilian garrison. The as saults were repulsed. New York, Feb. 21.—The Post's spe cial says the Senate Committee on the District of Columbia, and decided tore port to the House a suffrage bill, and ask its immediate passage by the Sen ate. The Chairman of the House Com mittee on freedmen, Mr. Elliot, is pre- paring a new bill providing lor tl e ! Freedmen’s Bureau. Resolutions were unanimously adopt ed by the Board of Aidermen to-day, endorsing the President’s veto. Washington, Feb. 20. —A delegation of merchant tailors are here from Penn sylvania and Maryland, joined by some of the trade in W ashington, to appear before the Committee on Wa\B and Means, with a memorial to obtain amendment to the Internal Revenue law. They say that they are now re quired to pay sixty dollrrs on every thousand of gross receipts, which they think altogether too much. They are willing to pay what is recommended by the Treasury Committee, namely, ffive dollars on the thousand. New York, Feb. 21 —The steamer Henry Charney from Aspinwall the 13th at rived, and Panama dates of the 11th inst., received. Mosquero is endeavoring to obtain more than is given by the present com pany. Several miners from California have I arrived at Panama en route to prospect in the gold mines of Chocho and Bagba cous, some forty miles from Tucmoco. A rich region is reported has just been discovered about 18 miles from Panama and 2 miles from the railroad. The California miners pronounce the de velopment as exceedingly rich. The trial of Bradly for robbing the Paymaster Rittonhouse of $15,000 has been postponed. Valparaiso, Jan. 20.—War had been declared by Peru against Spain but hostilities had not yet commenced. The blockade of Calloa has been raised and the Spanish squadron are concentrating at Valpariaso. Five or six sailing ves sels have been burned by the Span* iards. The Post says a dispatch faom a mem ber of Congress announced yesterday shat the Secretary Seward would speak at the Cooper Institute meeting. New York, Feb. 20. —Advices from San Francisco state that the West Un ion Telegraph has been extended, under the superintendence of Col. Bulkly, over 400 miles, to New Westminister, on I Frazier river. Reports from Col. Bulkly’s exploring I party show that the obstacles to be overcome are of less magnitude than were anticipated by some. It is be lieved the connection between Russia and America will be completed before a y ear - ..... No Compensation. — The Congression al Committee on Claims have taken the broad ground that, as it never has been the practice of Governments to make compensation for the ravages of war, the question of compensation to sufferers in hostile regions cannot be en" tertained. This will be a damper upon many who have already placed their pa pers before Congress. Negro Paper.— The colored people of Mobile have an organ.

No mnu’s nonre H more Intimately connected wilb tho history < f M AThltlA MEDICa of Ito United BU>e«,<T more lavora bly known ab a pioneer iu Medical Discove ry, than that of John Bull, of Louisville, Kentucky. His inimitable preparation <r Har.wp.rlllo, has long stood at .be bead of the various compounds ol that vaia.ble drug. His Compound of Wild Cherry has be come a household word throughout the West His Worm Losen ges, in less than a year after their introduction, attaiic.l a Reputation as wide spread as the continent of North America. But the crowuingg'ury of bis life remains to be attained in hit discovery, ur rather combination, for be does not claim to have be«*n the discover of CKD» KON, which is the binds of lhe Bitters now ofiered to the public. That henor belongs to tbe native inhabi tants of Central America, to wnom ns virtues have been known for more tuan two hundred y*ars. Armed with it thelndUu bids th fiance, to the most deadly maiaru and bandies, without fear, the m- st venomous serpents. It is a belief with them, that while tber« is breath in the body, tbe Cedron is potent to cure, no matter what the case may be. While Dr. Bull is not prepared to endorse this sxtrtva ganl pretension, he is nevertheless satisfied from a thorough examination ol the ev'dence relating to itfi virtues, that asa remedy and preventative for all dB - arising from t xpostire, either toebunge of weather or climate, or to miasmatic influenceF, it stands Vv itUout ct rival! And justly deserves the reputation it has long enjoyed in Central America and the West ludios. IN DYSPEPSIA And its attendant train of symptoms it acte more Like a Charm than a medicine. Ihwre m nothing in the whole range ot Materia Med ca that can for a moment bear a comparison with it in this disease. A full account ot this wonderful piaut rnay be found in the 11th edition of the United S ates Diepensitory, pages 1387 and 1888. * A series oi experiments in which Dr. Bull has been for years engaged, has jfist been br light to a successful termination, and he is now enabled to cff.ir the public a combination of Cedron with other approved tonics, the whole preserved m the beat quality of copper distill ed Biurbon Wnisky, which he is confident has no equal in tne world. He might furnish a volume ot certificates, but the public have long since learned to estimate such things by their true value. The salest plan is, for everyone ' to test lor himself tho virtues of a new medicine. GIVE THE Cedron Bitters One trial and you will never use any others.
