HOWELL coilll—,V BUGGBBTION.
We heartily agree with the .suggestion
of our friend of the Columbus Sun— in his
remarks touching the tribute of the Bar of
tliis Circuit to the memory of the great
man whose name appears above —that
sutlicient has been done in this direction,
at least for tlie present. At some future
and more auspicious day, the Bar of the
State will delight to do honor to one of
its most distinguished members before the
chief Tribunal of the State. But not now.
They know, as we do, that Gen. Cobb, if
alive, would not appear before tiiat Court
as at present constituted, and they must
feel tiiat any elTort to render a tribute to
him before it, now, would be a mockery,
alike reflecting upon his memory, and
their grief. Let them wait till that Court
shall become what it once was, before
askiug its ollleia! co-operation in putting
on record their estimate of the life and
virtues of one who-e name is graven so
deeply upon the hearts of the people of
Georgia.
THE TRUTH OF HISTORY.
A statement put forth by George Wilkes,
editor of a sportiiig paper iu New York,
and a member of the innermost ring of
the extremists of the Radical party, and
to the effect that Mr. Lincoln, and not
Gen. Sherman, was the author of the
terms of surrender proposed by the latter
to Gen. Johnston, has lately appeared in
many Southern newspapers. Wilkes’ob
ject, evidently, is to prepare the Radical
miud for Sherman, as Grant’s successor in
command of tne Federal army, by break
ing the force of the objections ma le and
still entertained towards him because of
tiie liberality of those terms. The state
ment referred to has elicited the follow
ing from the Montgomery Mail, which
sets the question at rest, and may, we
think, be set down as the truth of the
matter:
\V o do not violate the sanctity of private conver
sation, when \vc say that not three weeks ago we
heard a relation of the facts connected with this
matter from the lips of tic a. Johnston himself. The.
terms were proposed t>y himself to Gen. Sherman,
and were submitted by Gen. Sherman to his
officers. These officers unanimously acquiesced
in the propositions of Gen Johnston and seemed
to think tiiat the terms were omtirely proper.
Afterwards when President Johnson, who had just
succeeded to the Presidential chair, repudiated the
terms of the Johnston-tiherruin conference, the
General officers of Sherman's army met together
in the presence of (sen. Jos E. Johnston and de
nounced in unqualified terms the interference of
the President with the agreement made by the
respective armies. There was not a single officer,
from Gen. Sherman down to .Judson Kilpatrick,
who did not contend that the President was hound
in honor to recognize the terms of capitulation as
agreed upon by Gen. Johnston and Sherman, and
as to the terms themselves there was not a single
officer wiio expressed the slightest objection to
those terms. I'ho principles of States-rights as
embodied in the terms proposed by Geu. Johnston
were assented to by every officer of Sherman's
army, and had it not been for the determination of
the advanced Radicals to do away with Uie Gousti
tution as it is, we would never have heard of j
these attempted apologies of Wilkes for an agree
ment which was perfectly honorable to Gen. eher- ,
man.

Increase of Banking Facilities.
In addition to tUo banking accommodations of
our city to be found at the First National Bank,
City Banking Company, aud of Messrs. Cubbeu&o
& Hazlehurst's banking establishment, we are
pleased to announce that Messrs. A. It. Powell A
Cos. have opened a banking house in the Hollings
worth Block, Poplar street, with ample capital for
extending accommodation to all responsible par
ties needing it. They have lilted up an office that
is a model of beauty and neatness. V
Mr. Powell is well known in financial circles
here, as a former partner in the old banking firm of
Nutting, Powell & Cos. He is au affable gentle
man, and experienced in his line of business.
The I’. 8. Courts.
Wc learn from our cotomporary, of the Savannah
H'pHhlir.tn, of the sth, that the tT. S. Circuit and
District Courts adjourned tint ili* on the previous
day. Judge Erskine is said by the Republican to
have presided with dignity, but kindness, and his
decisions ju many cases involving intricate ques
tions of law, have given general satisfaction.
Though an immense amount of Judicial business
has been transacted, there were no jury trials. The
Judge is said to have. refrained from giving en
couragement to a vindictive execution of the
Congressional confiscation laws, aiul has made no
order of sequestration of private property so far as
known.
There are a number of cases pending involving
nice questions of law in reference to the purchase of
slaves before aud during the war, which will proba
bly come up for trial at the April term of the Cir
cuit Court, when it is expected Chief Justice Chase
will bo present and preside.
T he Railroads.
Stockholders of the .Central Railroad will no
doubt be pleased to learn that an annual dividend
of #5 per share, payable, ou and after the 21st iust.,
has been declared. The Savannah Aries, of the sth,
further states that the annual meeting of the stock
holders will be held in that city ou the 22d inst.,
and an election for directors to manage the affairs of
the company for the ensuing year, at the same
place, on the 4th of January next.
From the Columbus Sttn, of the sth, we learn
that the Legislature of Alabama lias passed a bill
authorizing the extension of the Mobile A Girard
Hoad to the town of Troy, in Pike county, in tin*
latter State, and authorizes the subscription of
*75,000 to the company for tliat purpose. The Sun
thinks the proposed extension will not only add
Immensely to the importance of Troy, but largely
i tiercaso the business of Columbus.
Acceptance of I'hrlat Church.
It affords us pleasure to state that Bishop Beck
with haa signified his acceptance of Christ Church
as tlio Cathedral Church of the diocese of Georgia
it having been formally tendered him by the War
dens aud Vestry thereof. The services of this
Church, hereafter, will be solely under the direc
tiau and charge of the Bishop, when he is > u the
city.
We cannot but congratulate the Wurdeus, Vestry
and congregation of Christ Church upon this a ( >.
wptanee, as it cannot but redound to the good of
that body, and the advancement of Christ’s king
dees.

COWHIDES AND REVOLVERS.
E. H. Pugbe, the publisher of the Radi
cal organ at Augusta, has been feeling the
weight of a cowhide, and looking into the
muzzl *of a revolver held in the nervous
grasp of Geu. A. R. Wright. As we do
not find any mention of it in the other
Augusta papers, we L-t him tell his own
story as follows. We need hardly caution
our readers to take it cum grano :
1 had hoped that the political contest
which resulted, on Wednesday last, so
much to the discomfiture of the Republi
cansof Augusta, would have ended the
HiTile and bitterness of feeling growing out
<>i it, find which no one more than myself
more deeply deplores. But in this I am
constrained to acknowledge myself sadly
mistaken. While standing bare headed
and unarmed, on Broad street, yesterday
morning, in conversation with a friend
and neighbor, I was approached, from be
hind, by Gen. A. R. VVright, editor in
chief of the Chronicle <Sc Sentinel of this
ciiy, who, without intimation of his inten
tion, assaulted me with a bludgeon, (or
raw-hide) in one hand and revolver iu the
other. As is usual iu all such unequal
contests, I was worsted iu the rencontre
and forced to yield the field, perhaps in
gloriousiy, though sustaining but iusigui
ficant personal damage.
Soon after the occurrence above stated
<>ur political editor entered the office, and’
learning the particulars, addressed tiie
foil iwlng note to my assailant:
Augusta, Ga., Dec. 3d, 1868.
Gen. A. It. Wright —
Snt: I have just learned that you Assaulted Mr
! ughe this morning on the street, and 1 presume
in consequence of mutter contained in the .Xatiwvu
Republican.
As political editor of that Joei nai, I hcrebv an
nounce myself as the writer of said articles, and am
alone responsible for them.
Jas. R, Hood.
A verbal answer only was returned, to
th« effect that he (Gen. Wright) would
not receive any communication from par
ties connected with my ofllce.
During tiie day a committee of gentle
men—all of them Democrats—called to as
certain whether or not the matter could
he compromised, or in other words, “ami
caldy adjusted.” I replied that a public*
acknowledgment by Gen. Wright of the
outrage he had committed would be satis
factory ; hut afterwards consented to a
modification of my demand, as an evi
dence of my desire for peace. The gentle
men comprising the committee drew up a
paper embodying tiie terms upon which
they thought the difficulty ought to he
adjusted, and to which (being in conson
ance with my previous modified demand)
1 assented This paper, I learn, was sub
mitted to Gen. Wright, who rejected it
unless accompanied by a pledge which I
cou ii Dot, would not give.

KPSCIB PAYMENTS.
I lie Removal of Disabilities from Southern Men
I he Struggle for the Treuury Department.
Washington, Dec. 1, 1868.
In tlie abseuce of more exciting topics,
tiie newspapers here are discussing witli
vehemence the question of "resuming’ -
specie payments. The Chronicle very ju
diciously remarks that the tirst thing to
he considered in this connection is wheth
er we have the specie to carry on the pro
cess. Another paper, equally sensible, as
suming our inab lity in this respect, sug
gests tiiat iu order to* get the required
quantum of tiie precious metals, we must
set about to do something tiiat will pre
vent their afliux, and having a tendency
at the same time to force their importa
tion. This is all very well; but why not
go at once to the bottom of the business,
and say plainly that the constitutional
currency can never be reinstated until the
supremacy of the Constitution itself is es
tablished—until the country is taken out
of the whirlpool of politics, and the people,
black and white, especially at the South,
left to pursue their uvocatious in raising
cotton, tobacco, rice and sugar, which are
cash articles in foreign markets?
Governor Morion (whose ideas about
finance are about as clear as his chances
for tin- Secretaryship ot the Treasury are
propitious) may write till doomsday, and
never approach “resumption,” without
the supply of the means through the reg
ular channels of trade by which alone it
ran be effected. Let him lay aside the
pen, which, though mightier than the
sword, is utterly powerless iu such an
put bi« shoulder- to ttire
wheel, lift the burden from tiie necks of
the people, and go for measures in the
Senate that will “unmuzzle the ox that
treadeth out the corn.”
A decidedly better feeliug seems to pre
vail among leading Radicals here than
existed last winter. I may say that there
is a prospect of removing the disabilities
under which Southern men are now pros
trated. This probably will he done by
some general law at the ensuing session,
if tiie struggle for the Treasury Depart
ment does not monopolize the time by
profitless discussion upon the financial
question. Every two-penny politician in
Congress has his figures ready to prove
that a debt of five thousand millions of
dollars can easily be paid in coin i>y means
of speeches, resolutions and the swapping
of jack-knives. If the leading Radicals
of the Senate could but decide at once
upon the keeper of the Treasury keys for
the four ensuing years—no matter who—
the country need not despair that action
looking iu some degree to a real pacifica
tion of the country would be had at the
approaching sessiou. X.
IMPARTIAL SUFFRAGE.
Greeley’s Proposed Constitutional Amendment.
From tiiu New York Tribune, December Ist.
With profound reverence for the Consti
tution, as our fathers framed it, aud espe
cially for that clause thereof which pro
vides for its own amendment, as circum
stances may render expedient, we propose
the following amendment tor the consid
eration of the people, and theapproaehiug
session of Congress, aud of our Btate Leg
islatures :
AMENDMENT TO THE CONSTITUTION.
Article XV. The right of sutlrage iu
the several states shall be regulated by the
Legislatures thereof, subject to the follow
ing provisos:
1. That no State shall exclude from the
class of electors of Stale aud national of
ficers any male citizen of the Uuited
States, of the age of 21 years,(who has re
sided one yeariu the State, who is of sound
mind, good moral character, and has not
been convicted of a felonious crime.
2. Any person who has resided one year
in the United Siatis, and makes public
oath before a competent Magistrate that
be intends permanently to reside here,
and to render allegiance to the United
States at all times, shall he deemed and
held a citizen of the United States, and
shall be entitled to vote as such at any
time after he shall have been six months
a citizen, hut nosooner.
3. Each State shall be authorized to pass
such registration or other laws as may be
deemed n.ecessary to protect the rights of
legal voters, and punish illegal voting.
Dickson’s Select Cotton Seed.— Mr.
Theo. Ellis, druggist, showed us Friday a
sample cotton stalk from the plantation of
David Dickson, of Oxford, which was
really wonderful to behold. It was, say
two and a half feet high, and the brandies
being all tied together at the top, gave it
tLie appearance ofa buuchorclump of.cot
ton, literally, so numerous and full were
tiie bolls. We have it in our office, where
it may be seen at any time. Mr. D. raises
this cotton from selected seed, which may
be procured from Mr. Ellis at his drug
store. Mr. Dickson has brought the cul
ture of this variety to great perfection,
having on one occasion, raised a stalk four
feet high and bearing 253 bolls.
Touching Cotton. —“ Willoughby,”
who usually has his eyes aud ears well
open, wrote as follows, from New York,
one day last week, to the Augusta Coruiti
tulioualitt:
The market has not shown so much strength lat
terly. it begins to be actively discussed, whether
the product of cotton in the world cau he market
ed at present prices. Apprehension is spreading
that Manchester and our own mills will be com
pelled to work "short” time. And, notwithstand
ing the apparently favorable course of the market
thus far, there is a growing disposition to sell.
Those who look for the same sharp upward turn
this January which occurred last January, may see
just tire opposite phenomenon. Things work that
way often.
Come Back. —A large number of emi
grants passed through here on yesterday
I bound for Texas. Our advice to all is to
j st; * y in t}eor sia. We have whipped Itadi
! cal ism, can do it again, aud the old State

He proceeded to show that the Kourt'-eutb Amend

change in the political system adopted to secure

alleged by the defence, t“ act a* an amnesty, nor
was there a single word tit > lln the Cougrc
that formed, nor tiie . «» that-adopted it,
to warrant such a construe:' :so far from tiiat,
it was intonned as a last by <> nick these men may be

seeing that it applied to tin- .r who had, after

rebellion agaoist t. Go, '.'mat. Now, treason
is something inure tb in 1 -ng engaged in insurrec
tion and rebellion, it i™ levying -r the Gov
ernment, and of this the defendant stands chanted-
It would be strange, indeed, if Jefferson Davis
could, as lie might under this pisa, come to the
bar, and, acknowledging that lie was guilty Os trea
son, deny the liability to be putibh-d, because of
tiie Fourteenth Amendment.
Mr Dana contended tiiat, viewed as the defence
would have it, a-a repeal of tie punishing eia
of the Constitution, the Fourteenth Article would
oiler premium for rebellion hereafter, securing as,
it would, the participators who had iietd office
from all penalties save uisfranehis' iiieiit.
Mr. O’Connor followed Mr. Dana. He showed
that from the very nature of a great civil war, it
wa» impossible t-> follow it up by tri-.is Or treason
conducted with the fairness required bv Jaw; ho*
utterly repugnant to the world » idea of humaml*
it is that, after being recognized during the war ns
in all respects equal and honorable men, the lead
ers of the conquered force should be searched out
in peace to he husg an traitor* ; that the Govern
ment and people had never intended to do this,
and it was for this reason t'.*- Fourteenth Amend
ment had been adopted. It was a 'constitutional
provision, and executed itself; and those who fell
under it were now suffering the punishment. He
asked the Court to give the construction to the
Fourteenth Article that American people intended
it should bear, and to accept the great and bene
fieient act of mercy in the construction which they
hud put upon it, and which tends to advance what
all good men who are believers in universal suf
frage so much desire; that universal suffrage
should be accompanied hand and hand with uni
versal amnesty of supposed otleuses uris.ug out
of the unfortunate controversy iu which univer
sal suffrage may tie said to have had it* origin and
establishment.
Court adjourned till to morrow.
After the adjournment of the United States Su
preme Court to-night, the counsel were recalled,
when Chief Justice Chase announced that the Court
was divided, he (Chase) being in favor of quashing
the indictment, and the District Ju.lge (Under

Court was certified to the Supreme Court of the
United States.

I appointed and commissioned by the Mayor two
j weeks since, for patrol duty on the outskirts of the

deners, who relieved each other nightly, patroling
the woods, and guarding the farms from the depre
dations of negroes. Last evening Brodbacker and
several others were patroling Thunderbolt shell
roail. About 11p.m. they heard loud hallooing.
They approached tiie party and demanded to know
the cause of the disturbance. The negroes, about
a half dozen in number, replied threateningly,
I when Brodbacker arrested oue, giving him in
charge of the party, aud advanced u few paces to
nuke another arrest. At this moment they were
suddenly fired into by a large party of negroes,
numbering about forty, who had before been con
cealed. Some sixty shots in all were tired, the pa
trol retreating before superior numbers Mr. Brod
backer was killed the first fire, and three others of
! his party were wounded—two of them probably
! mortally. This afternoon an Inquest was held upon
j the body, and a verdict rendered that “deceased

earnestly recommend tiiat the State aud county

population.” There is considerable excitement.
About thirty arrests have already been made bv the

Governor Bullock ha™ addressed a communica
tion to Congress, representing that the term* ofCon
gress under which Georgia is to (Mradmitted into
the Union have not been fully complied with, and
holding that until such compliance by Georgia her
Government must continue provisional. '1 he fail
ure lies in failing to exact from officers elected the
ostli prescribed by Congress, and administering,
instead, tiiat provided by the proposed Georgia
Constitution, which failure to execute the law of
Congress lias resulted in the defeat of the purposes
which Congress had in view in passing these Act™,
namely : affording adequate protection for life and
tiie maintenance of peace, good order, and the free
expression of political opinion. Gov. Bullock,
states that the wisd mi displayed by Congress in '
providing llmt only loyal men should participate iu
the establishment of the fro visional Government,
to be thereafter clothed with the rights and im
munities of a State in the Union, is made upparcat
by the consequences arising from a failure to en
force that provision in the Legislature. The Gov
ernor call* the attention of Congress to this sub
ject. to the end that steps may he taken to obtain
a full conformation in relation thereto, and to the
end that loyalty may be protected and promoted by
the enforcement of the laws enacted by the repre
sentative# of the Amerleau people.

Houston Lodge, No. 35, F. A. M. t
Pkrrt, (U., Nov. lfl, 1868.
Again have we been called to mourn the death
of one ot our number. Brother JOHN G. HOOBE,
a member of this Lodge, departed this life Hep
tember Hist, 1868, aged 23 yearn and 1 day.
Brother Moore’s highest praise as a Master Ma
son Is that his character as such compassed and
developed, in his young and noble manhood, all
that constitutes the Christian gentleman—the
noble son of a widowed mother—the good citi
zen. His. Indeed, was a poll lied ashlar made
meet for tue Master Builder's use; and we at
tempt not to rear to his memory a cenotaph of
lulsome encomiums or of eulogistic imagery,
but prefer that the savor of hisgood names ould
live In our liearis, speaking lor itself, and that
we should emulate him by striving to promote
the wisdom, strengih, and beauty of the work
upon which we are engaged.
Entertaining no doubt of his blssful Immor
tality, we hope to meet him again In the Su
preme Grand Lodge above, the Celestial Temple,
whose maker and builder Is the Supreme Archi
tect of the universe, the God in whom we trust.
Resolved, 1 »t. That while we deeply deplore the
sad event, we would bow submissively to the all
wise and gracious, but inscrutable Providence
which has removed our worthy brother and com
panion from us, and do her by lender to his
stricken and bereaved mother and her family
our heartfelt sympathy and condolence, and
commend them for comfort and support lo the
God of our fathers.
The furniture and Jewels of the Loigs having
been clad In mourning, and the brethren having
worn the usual badge for thirty days, In respect
for the memory of Brother Moore;
Resolved, 2d, That this humble tribute be re
corded upon a page of tiie Lodge Book set apart
for that purpose, and that a manuscript copy of
the same, under the seal of the Lodge, he for
warded to the mother of the deceased, and that
the same be published in the Hacoo Journal
and Mkssengeb
I do hereby certify that the foregoing Is a true ex
tract from the records of the I-odge. This No
vember ltilh, 1863. JOHN 8. JOBBON,

OBITUARY.
MARY ANNIE ISRAVSEY, the only child of
Mrs. Petrouia Walker, fell asleep In Jesus, De
cember 3d, 1808, aged three years, nine months
and four days.
Ye mourning parents, whose streaming tears
Flow over your daughter’s death,
Look up, and with reverence view—
To Heaven Its soul hath fled.
Though your young branch has been called away,
Like withered trunks ye stand ;
With fairer verdure shall ye bloom,
Touched by the Almighty's hand.
I will give the mourner, smith the Lord,
In my own house a place.
Where name of daughter or of son
Could yleid a higher grace ?
Transeientand vain is every hope
A visionary ray can give.
In endless honor and delight
My children all shall live.
We welcome. Lord, those lislng tears,
Through which our face you see,
And bless those wounds which through our
hearts
May prepare a way for The*. J. L. W.
