DEXTER fnimiwitk 2Mto*riis«. Y.G. Stact, Editor and Proprietor. <* Advance WEDNESDAY, Dee. 22nd, t875. “ETerrMan ha a his Price, and can he Bought/’ Ho we beard a gentleman remark a few days sinee. Some, he said, tor a very little, and others for mnoh more. Can this u£ tme? Is there, indeed, no one whose estimate of himself'is above price; yrbose principles cannot be swerved to the right or to the left for gain? Is it a fact that the human race, although possessing powers far above the animal kingdom, is so closely al lied toil as to sacrifice honor, virtue, truth, and justice—all for mere gain? We cannot believe it. Our ideas of true manhood are far above this. Good and pure men have lived in all ages, who, instead of sacrificing prin ciple for gain, have done just the op. posite, and sacrificed ali, even life it self, for principle. We grant that these cases are few—that of the multitude it can be said, they have their price; of fer it, and they ore yours. But not so of alt, in our judgement. Else of what avail the death of those who cheer fully gave up their lives for country, or perished “at the stake,” or “in the flames?” Could they hove been bought? We think not. Life is dearer than money, and they forfeited that for principle. Would money have bad a richer charm? No, reider, men yet live whose price cannot be named. fSWICK, GA. • farter aafl frrter, Insurance, Real Estate and COLLECTION AGENT. .pecial attention given to co. rCtiou of draft* and we* • WiiBtej > - j prerapu) luauf I —IN— , New York Exchange.

Recommendations of Presi dent Grant. W. A. JOHNSON, ■ o “As this will 1>e the last annual mes sage which I will have the honor of transmitting to Congress before my successor is chosen, I will repeat or recapitulate the questions which I deem of vital importance, which may be legislated upon and settled at this session. First, That the States shall be re quired to afford the opportunity of a good common school education for ev ery child within their limits. Second, No sectarian tenets shall ever be taught in any school support ed in whole or in part by the State or National Government, or by the pro ceeds of any tax levied on any com* munity. Make education compulsory os for us to deprive all persons who cannot read and write from becoming voters after the year 18'.)0. Disfran. chising none, however, on the ground of illiteracy, who may be voters at the time this amendment takes offect. Third, Declare Church and State forever separate tnd distinct, but each free, within their proper spheres, oud nil church property shall bear its own proportion of taxation. , Fourth, Drivo out licensed immor ality, such as polygamy and the im portation of women for illegitimate purposes. To recur again to the Cen tennial year, it would seem as thnngh now, as we are about tc begin the sec. end c-Titery of cur nuil.-mal would be & must fitting time for these reforms. Fifth, Enact such laws as will insure a speedy return to a sotted currency, such as will command the respect of the world. Believing that these views will commend themselves to the great majority of the United States, I sub mit the rest to Congress. Executive ’ U. 8. Grant. ion, Deo. 7th, 1875. faM BOOT and SHOE MAKER.
