MARCH J, 1876,~~
OUR TRIP.
DOTS by THE WAYSIDE.
Well, the heading of this article
would very natuially indicate that we
had been somewhere outside of the
circumscribed limit of our every day
life, in the lap of our rural village, be
vond the pale of its quiet but not pn
ively appearance, and a part for a lit.
tie while from the attraction and influ
ence which it involuntarily holds over
its inmates. We will just simply say,
such has been the case, and if you will
allow the illustration, as the dove
withitsolive branch, sought again the
safe covert of the sheltering ark, or as
tne swallow returns at the approach of
night to its home in the hollow tree; so
we have, alter being “on the wing" for
several days, settled down at the place
from which we started, and And our
selves busy making the same old tracks
over, that we so often trod before.
We started on the 23d, took supper
in Macon, warmed our capacious mud
splitters around the Brown House
siove, and took the 9 o'clock train lor
Atlanta. We had nothing to do but
to listen at the occasional deep breath
ing of a passenger, sometimes rising
into louder and more ton •lungly elo
quent respirations, until a sound svrn
Colic of saw mills and slow tlmiide
greeted the ear. The train rumbled
through the gloom of night, all was
dark without, and the bright stars
looked in on the drowsy travelers.
Sleep hied away from us, and happily
it was otr fo turn* to beguile the tedi
<i ti hours in conversation with one of
i)al >nega's fair daughters. As the
sight of land is to the homesick marin,
cr, or as the tuft of grass was to Mungo
Hark in the desert, so is genial, ( leas,
ant companionship in the cars, especi
: lly nf night, when solitude asserts its
right to reighn and strange faces front
y >u on every side, particularly refresh
i ig. We reached Atlanta before day.
T e Gate City was soon awake, her
i istling soon began, and her pav and
streets was soon thronged and thn b
bmu with the pulse of busy life.
Tiie papers and t.lie people all talk of
Booth, like he had been some grea'. nat
ural curiosity, that we seo or hear of
but once in even hundred years, a kind
of centennial sensation. During bis
st ay there, which we believe embraced
four nights, he made about $9,000. —
He is engaged by Mr. John T. Ford,
who (lays him a salary of SO(J per
night. We could do on half that a
mount very well, and steer clear of the
] inic. that <*wr visited a drought sinit
t-n pe >ple. l!ut we have deviated, and
) ke a great many people who write
1 tiers, and long ones at that, and put
i . the P. P. all of real interest that
t hej’ have to say : we have yet to tell the
object ofour trip and its attainment.
Greensboro is the watchword. Its
the ph-.cc we were sent- by Battle Oak
Hodge, 1. O. <-. T.. as a delegate, with
about as Utile 1 tea what we had to do
when we gof there, as a possum hunter
who ge s lost in the deep of night, and
c.redes around a light tlial he leaves on
a stump, has of his way to the north
pole, or the direction home.
We reached the place on Friday
right, and was hospitably received bv
Mr Zimmerman and family. It was
never our good fortune to be entertain
< 1 with more marked kindness, or to
meet a more accomplished arid courte
ous household than on this occasion,
V>> f It from the first that we were with
friends, and not regarded in the light of
a stranger.
The Convention, presided oyer by
District Deputy Shoppard, of Augusta,
met at 9 o'clock a. m. Among tire high
officials pr‘sent of Good Templarjstn,
of Georgia, was J. G. Thrower, G. W.
( . T.. and R. A. Varnadoe, G. M. They
arc both thoroughgoing men, fully alive
to the work that, is before them and
that, they are now so earnestly engaged
in. The whole day was consume 1 in
busine-s.
At night the. capacious ronrt-rrinin
was crowded with the intelligence and
the beauty—the young and the old, of
:ue refined society of the somewhat
time-worn, but nevertheless interesting
town ol' Greens' oro. Several speeches
were indulged in, some of them fine
specimens of oratory aud extemporaue
mis e.fort, and full of the temperance
zeal that promptei them ; some of tueuj
young men just verging into the oiren
arena of active life, with the true pur
poses of aspiring manhood, and the
promising fruition of future fame, nctu,
n ing and maturing their noble resolves.
Gentlemen, however, did not do all
the work. We saw a genuine spirit of
energy, the offspring of pure d.yition
to a high and noble cause, displayed by
Home of the fair ladies, that was worthy
of all praise and that will he as undy
ing in its effect, tv* the light of a high
leirn love that lives on after death, and
ks unfading as a dower that buds on
earth but to bloom in heaven. Quite a
jiumber ware brought Into the Greens*
l>oro Lodge, and oh, what a reunion of
heart, eentiment, and puna rolled
over the assembly like a glad summer
wave, as each one standing in the pres
ence of God and man. vowed a mere,
unwavering fidelity in the future, to the
snored banner of abstinence, and as the
• > les and antue.ns were sung, the swell
i.tgtidaof vocal music, mellow, soft
;md sweet took up the spoken pledge,
;md wafted it away to the registry
above : 'A templar’s vow is registered
;a heaven.”
The last hours of the meeting were
made mors congenial. Innocent jests
were indulged in freely. WHt and fine
humor, ana bright eyes appeared in the
place of wine, and gentlemen and la
dies promenaded the spacious apart
ment till the hours grew small, but as
each sweet has its bitter, so did this,
and "the parting was the pain." We
were delighted to have lira. J. M. Jones
and Dr, Kelly along with us to ex.
change our sympathies aiul like us they
will not soon forget the hospitality, the
pleasure and the profit of the occasion.
In another place will be found the offi
cers elect. In the Sunny South the pro
ceedings in full will appear.
If John H. James wants our influ
ence in his race for gubernatorial honors
all lie has to do is to imitate his friend
J. Brown in the State road lease, and
geud us down his check for $5,000, and
we’l'. hist his name quicker'n 1 ghtning.
Neither one of the ethics of journalism
will keep us from receiving the amount
Mr. James, so you cap send it along
with the full assurance that it will be
received,

! During the progress of the session of
| the General Assembly which is now
j drawing tfl a close, we have marked
! with pleasure the course of Hon, Virgil
| IT, Runts, the young and able represen
tative of the good people of Screven
county. No member of the House has
been more quiet and unpretending, yet
none has stood more firmly and faith
fully by the interest of his constituents.
Always in his seat, his position on
measures before that body has been
an noticed by his vote rather than by
lengthy vocalization, and his motto has
been “work” rather than “talk.” En
joying great personal popularity, uni
ye. sally beljhed by his fellow members,
and exercising a sound judgment anil
ample consideration in assuming a po
sition, Col, Burns rarely fails to carry
] to success any measure he espouses.—
In him old Screyen is worthily and ad
mirably repreientod, and his county
may justly lie proud of hh consistent
and shilling record, and of his faithful
and earnest work in her behalf, and in
the true inteiest of the whole State. It
will be difficult to supply his place in
the event that ho declines re-election ;
and we feel sure his follow citizens
cannot net more wisely and fliscretly
than to return Colouel Burns without
opposition. Georgia needs the honest
and zealous services of stjch sons as he
in her counoils. and cannot spare such
model legislators from the General As
s stubly. We want sensible legislation,
economy in the State government, a
careful use of the people’s money, and
unblemished integrity in all depart
ments, ami the course of Colonel Burns
has been oireotei to subserve these
cuds.— Atlanta Coin man wealth.
Had tbe lwc been a passing squib,
compliment from the reporter’s ooluran,
it would certainly have been "passed
around" without being much noticed,
but a3 one who has stock in the repre
sentation of the "(food people of (Ad
Sere v*,’ ’I cannot help but "put in” a
wor4 of reply to the paid for compli
ment. How far from the right putb the
writer erred. This piece will sound
well to those readers who are not. ac
quainted with tie ‘shining rejjrrd”of
this "model legislator” (?) but to those
who know the true facta, they’ have nut
“nUirb’d with so much pt'a-iurs” the
•work” of “Col” (?) Bums, (late Col,
C. 8. A.) What measures did this
“young and able representative" espouse?
W hat great work did he do to supply
the impediment In bis speech, whereas
he adopted the motto of “work” rather
than “talk?” If he enjoyed ao much
"personal popularity” and was “so uni
versally liked” by his fellow members,
strange he was not put on some com
mittee, or his name hoisted for Govern
or. The fact of his being always in
his seat, {the seat of his breeches ) and
“his position of measures” {wine meas
ures), certaiuly will make it a difficult
matter for the people he so ‘ ably repre
sented” to supply his place in the event
he should “ decline re-election ” Col. (?)
Burns has asserted that he could go
back if he wanted to, but in case he made
a oertain trade iie would not have the
position, as this trade would pay him
more than the legislature, hence we see
the “careful use of the peoples' money ”
is the end to which his course has beeD
directed. In the first session of the
State Legislature lie did nothing
except to pass one hill, which was after
wards laid on a lawyer’s table for con
sideration, and for which the “Col.” (?)
put in a substitue of a forty dollar
greenback whioh passed. The excuse
given to his constituents was, that he
was was a fact). Not be
ing acclimated he could not stand the
“pure water” and “fresh air” of a more
northern clime. In the second session
he did less for the peoples’ good, and
will of course show the above newspa
per compliment for his vindication,
which is full proof that he did all that
was done. When apetitiqn signed by
the citizens of '‘old Screven” was sent
up to him, asking his actions in oertain
matters, he gets on thG train goes down
to a '‘call meeting,” whioh was seen by
wiser heads to be a thing of nothingness,
in which they “bipkethe link,” and he
returned and did ju3t what they peti
tioned him not to do, after pledging
himself in such matters, gives addition
al proof of his “unb.emished integrity”
•■‘to which end” it has been directed.
The assertion that his fellow citizens
could do no better than to return '‘Col.”
Burns without opposition is a broad
one, and I think a “heavy slam” on
every man in the county he lives, and I
can assure the public, a ere \t not for the
last reiqark, I woqid not have answered
this at all, The people of Screven
county are not entirely blind to judg
ment, good sense, and dignity, auilif
they put a “capon in the cock pit” tl is
time it is no reason they will do so
again. “Yeukek.”

The Best Border Book yet out. —
The publishing house of J. C. McCurdy
& Cos., have lately brought out “Ouu
Western Border, One Hundred
Years Ago, by Charles Mcknight, au
thor of “Simon Girty” and “Old Fort
Duquesre.” {t is a large, elegant, well
printed, superbly bound and beautifully
Illustrated octavo, of nearly eight hun
dred pages, filled with stirring deeds and
thrilling adventures of the dread-naught
old borderers—such dauntless worthies
! as Boone, Keutcm, Brady. Logan, Ilar
! rod, MoColloch, McClellan, the Poes,
! the Zanes, and tbe Wetzels. It con
' tains the very cream of all the rare old
Border Chronioles, together with a vast
amount of fresh and original matter, the
whole work embracing strange and
thrilling narratives of daring deeds,
I desperate conflicts, exciting adventures,
j touching captivities, and is claimed to
be the best, fullest, most complete, and
J most reliable portrayal of Border life,
I struggle and adventure eneryet publish
! ed.
j “Our Western Border” has the unmis
takable flavor of the soil and the free
j air of the wildernosas about it. jt is a
I square, honest, and exhaustive wor|c,
| without any of the usual “padding.”
j Although sold for $3. it is equal jn ex
] tent of contents fo the prdina r y book
of $5, and is meeting with remarkable
popular favor. It is most warmly en
dorsed by loading Divines and Histori
ans: Gen, pierce, of Ohio, says, that
“a minister may as well be without a
Bible, as a historian without “Our Wes
tern Border,” Judge Veech, historian,
says, “Its possessor will Ire saved the
purchase of a score of books, most of
which are out of print, many of them
as precious as Sybilline leaves.” Judge
W liite asserts, “The work onght to be
in every household." The Philadelphia
Press says, “Chas. Mcknight is doing
for the west, what Cooiwr did for Now
York, but the pictures of the former
have undoubtedly less of the glamour
of romance, aud more of the truth of
historio painting. Sold only by agents.”
