THE CUTHBERT APPEAL.
UU.BLX3MKO KVKRT THURSDAY MORNING BY
SAWTELL & JONES! *
- *....
H. H. JOWIS S 4 J^OR.
TUURSDAY, JANUARY 20, 1870.
S®, Bullock is still juggling, and fry*
ing hard and soft cm u with wieak-kaeed
to win them over to bia poli
cy and private purposes.
The last news is, that in consequence
.of the •temporary absence of a number
of democratic membere, a snap game
was apprehended in the House .organi
zation.
All legislation at present ns held in
abeyance by blue bellies and ’"bayonets,
and nothing moves -onward save the
ever increasing tide of expense to the
State.
Well, to ruin us is the only avowed
policy of our Federal enemies. This is
(General Grant’s peace.
%!&&- We invite attention, in another
.column, to the flattering prospects of the
Bainbridge, Cuthbert & Columbus Rail
road as set forth in the Argus.
Let opposition now be converted mto
&q and all bands go to work
to ■promote the great enterprise which
is destined to unlock and develope the
treasures and resources of an important
section, and inaugurate anew era in the
(prosperity of our city. The delinquent
subscriber, if any there be, should coun
sel no longer with his fears, but come
squarely up to the line of duty and in
terest.
Think of the opening of another
great outlet to the Gulf and Ocean ere
the leaves spving and fade again.
The time is hastening on when South
Western Georgia, the garden spot of the
State, will be known and appreciated as
it deserves to bs.
•“Look out for the engine when the
whistle blows.”
Sam Bard of the New Era af
ter being sold, has himself no Id out
We don’t blame him, for it would re
.quire a Muoh’aivel, or the versatility of
a Talleyrand to keep step with the ever
shifting music of his radical masters.
Bullock and Terry it seems closed
every outlet of escape “in the rear,”
and our discon solute B.ird is forced
to hang his harp on the willows.
May he not say, oh save mo from my
friends.
Homicide in Impbmul Circles —A
Comparison.— Prince Napoleon a cousin
of the French Emperor, shot and mor
ta’lf wounded Victor Noir on the 10th
i ist. for a publication in Rochefurts pa
per.
The Prince surrendered himself and
was led to the coDciergerie.
He will be tried before the High
Court of Justice, as no other tribunal
as competent to adjudge tho matter. —
The bitter -comments of -Rochefort have
provoked the suppression of his Jour,
tml. Still as an evidence of toleration un
der a despotic government, even when
the family of its Sovereign was arraign.
<?d, the next day in the Corps Legislaiif
M. Guyot Montparoux offered a resolu
tion that the members of the Imperial
family be made amenable to the Into.
Wonder if such a motion, in our little
“Congressional Agency” against the
usurper Bullock, would not result in t
the application tuf some of Terrys bayo
nets to the person of its author.
Talk of freedom and a republic ?
The knout of Russia, the bowstring
of Turkey, the garrote of Spain, and the
guillotine of France, could do no more
to prostrate and destroy our liberties.
Blessed Uniou, glorious flag.
A Beautiful Gift.— The Propri
etors of this paper have purchased and
placed on exhibition at the Book Store
of I)r. T. S. Powell, a large and ele
gant'y bound Family Bible, which
we propose to present to the person
procuring the largest number of sub
scribers (for one year"! to the At Peai.
before the 14th day of April next, at
which time the Book will be presented
and the name ot tho person receiving it
made public.
Persons intending to enter for this
beautiful and valuuble gift should leave
their names at this office, to enable us
to place to their credit the names they
| rocure.
Call and see the Hook, and we know
you will make an effort to secure it.
The Legislature.— Bullock andTerry,
Hve for near a week past, ordered a
suspension of all proceedings in the
General Assembly, fearful if permitted
to organize at present, a maj irity may
k be opposed to them.
Hence they arc waiting, in the hope
that the love of offi ;o an l nine dollars \
]«r day, willjdernoralize the democracy
iind conservatives, and cause many-more
to recant like Collier.
Failing in this, we suppose the mili
tary Board will be instructed to decapi
tate those members on trial before them.
Well, let them pile on the agony, Pe
lion upon 06sa, Alp upon Alp,--it will
but hasten the day of vengeance and
retribution upon the heads of the Tin
ported hirelings, w ho, backed by fede
ral bayonets, trample upon aud outrage
tl-e people of Georgia.
What reck they, that the State is at
s/ri expense of ton thousand dollars per
and iy, and bankruptcy and ruin loom up
in the distance ?
Ephemeral creatures of the hour,
they intend to make the most of the brief
span allowed to theaij and will doubt
lees feather their nests most amazingly
well
it is a long lane however that has no
turn.
General G. T. Beauregard has
invented a machinery for propelling
cars and hr>ai 6 by overhead wire, or
rope, deriving motion from stationary
tngines, or other power, at. intervals
along the route.
The Game of Intimidation-
Gov. Bollock has throws off the mask and wields
the sceptre with despotic power.
So far, Gen. Terry has disappointed
the expectations of moderate men, and
edema a mere puppet in rtbe bands of
the-wily expressman.
When it became evident that a union
of Democrats and conservative Repub
licans, ’Tt’ould prove too powerful for the
selfish schemes of the governor, and the,
Grant and Butler policy, Attorney Gen
eral Farrow, tho Man Friday of bis
“provisional” master, was called in re
quisition, with an “opinion” to bolster
up the concern. - •
This deliverance whridh prracrtieally
excluded scoree-of .individuals hrtharto
deemed eligible, 't-be -pliable District
•commander endorses with his imprima
tur.
The next step in the plot was to give
effect to this ruling by the preparation
of a “protest,” to be offered whenever
the -oath was presented to a suspected
member.
But who would have the 'hardihood
to serve this “process verbal”? None
of the white radicals, for every man of
them in and out rif the Leghfliibure, are
known to be lily livefed, arrant eow
ards.
Poor Sambo then who was -thrust To
ithe front at Battery Wagner, and made
a breast work of by .the .prudent New
Eug'ariders, again ie called upon to as
sume the post of danger aud discharge
this perilous duty.
Accordingly, we see the colored gen
tleman from Mclntosh “Mr. Campbell”
rising in the plenitude of his conse
quence, and protesting against the seat
ing of first one and then another, of the
white members elect.
Where-upon Bullock and Terry
forthwith call a military court martial to
fictile Georgia and Federal jurispru
dence, as though courts, judges, and
lawyers were obsolete ideas.
Verily all this seems like a dream,
and we feel constrained so awk what
are we ? Who are we ? American citi
zens, or subjects of the Ottoman Porte
with tho knout and bow string in terro
vem over us. Never was such high
-handed oppression recorded in the an-1
iaals of history.
This military Junta with its epanlet
ted officials, judge advocate, and drum-
Itead appointments, rivals the star
chamber of old, asd would bo if it dar
ed, as arbitrary and fatal in its judg
ments,
But even a radical stomach revolts at
such a pill, and hence a powerful coali
tion has been formed of all elements in
opposition to Bullock, and that worthy
will find he has a hard road to travel
through the remainder of his term.
And now powerless and chained to
the earth as we are, let the free men of
the North, East and West, lift up their
voices trumpet tongued in owr behalf,
and in vindication of the rights of an
American citizen.
If these crimes and usurpations are
toterated, how soon will their own boast
ed freedom, become a mere myth, with
out form or substance.
Again, we say also to all true Geor.
•gi&ns, scout the 15tl\ ameudment and
be drawn by wild horses ere you con
sent to ratify it*
No criminal is made to sign his own
death warrant. And if fall we must,
let ilne fatal blow l>e dealt by our ene
mies.
May God defend ibe right.
The Peoples’ Meeting,
From the Atlanta Constitution.]
Yesterday evening the Committee
made the following report, which was
adopted and the Committee instructed to
lay it before Gen. Terry. At the meet
ing at 12 m., to-day, the Committee re
ported that they had presented the re
port to Gen. Terry, who promised to
telegraph it to President Grant.
1 am instructed by the Committee ap
pointed by this body to make the fol
lowing report:
Whereas, We members elect to the
General Assembly of this State, assem
bled in this city on Monday, the 10th
inst., in answer to a proclamation by
his Excellency R.B. Bullock, Governor
of Georgia, issued in accordance with
the provisions of a bill recently passed
by o<wigress,“to promote the reconstruc
tion of Georgia,” and
Whereas, The said bill provides, Sec.
1, that the Governor is authorized to
summon all persons elected to the Gen
eral Assembly as appears by the pro
clamation of Gen. George G. Meade,
dated June 2otb, 1868, to appear on
some day certain to be named in said
proclamation, at Atlanta, and that there
upon the said General Assembly is au*
thorized to proceed to perfect its organi
za:ion in conformity with the Constitu
tion and laws ot tho United States, ac.
cording to the provisions of said Act,
and
Whereas, The Governor, as we be-*
lieve in violation of the provisions of said
Act, directed one A. L. Harris, not a
member of said General Assemb'y, but
an appointee of the Governor on the
Western and Atlantic Railroad, proper
ty of the State, to organize the House of
Representatives; and
Whereas, Said Harris has acted arbi
trary, and has assumed, in violation of
law, to dictate to members, duly elected
as aforesaid, what they shall, and shall
not say and do, and has refused to al
low them to proceed to perfect the or
ganization of said House of Representa
tives in accordance with the provisions
of said Act, and has wilfully hindered
and interrupted the organization of said
House of Representatives in accordance
with thfe provisions of said A ct > and has
wilfully hindered and interrupted the or
ganization of said House, by adjourning
it from day to day, against, the will of a
majority of the members thereof, and in
violation oi said law of Congress; and
Whereas, The said law provides:
Sec.. 2, that said members, when con*
vened, shall take certain oaths, which
most of the members of said House duly
qualified under said Act, have already
done, and all who were present, who
think themselves qualified, have presen
ted themselves, demanded to be
sworn in accordance with said Act, and
Whereas, Thg said Harris, in direct
violation of the said Act of Congress,
has dismissed the said members, who
were ready and willing to organize in
accordance with the provisions of said
law of Congress, and has wilfully hin
dered and interrupted the said members
from participating in tho proceedings of
said House of Representatives, after hav
ing taken the oaths prescribed, and oth
erwise complied with said Act:
We therefore present the following
Protest, and appeal to the General Com
manding the Third Military District.
She law»of Congress, under which we
=are convened, beingtbas overridden,the -
Constitution and laws of the State, thus 1
disregarded, and desiring, at this hour,
to advance no political purposes, but
earnestly wishing an organization of this
General Assembly in accordance with"
law, that the quiet of our homes may be
secure, and our little property saved
from depredation ; we divided, political
ly, as Republicans and Democrats, but
united an this -effort, protesting agains
the proceedings already had, and the ac
lion now beiDg'had in the organization
of the General Assembly, because it is in
direct violation of the law of Congress
itself, which now affords the warrant for*
our assembling as a Legislature; be
cause it is designed, as we believe, for
the purpose of defeating a fair organiza
tion of the two Houses, until corrupt and
dangerous men shall so shape affairs that
the State may fail helpless into their
bands, for plunder and oppression ; be*
cause it takes the power of determining
qualifications of Senators and Represen-,
tatives from the forum which the law of
Congress does not interfere with, and
which the Constitution provides.
Thus truthfully and earnestly express
ing our desires, and making ihiß our
protest, we appeal to the General com
manding, as a soldier of unsullied honor,,
a servant of the Repifblic, to exercise
the power in him by the Federal Gov
ernment entrusted, to rescue the people
-of Georgia from the -violence and out
rage with which they are threatened by
boldly wicked men.

at cash prices, in payment of subsojiptions to

reading for yourself and family for 1870.
MARRI ED,
BRGOKS-BROOKS, —-On the evening of the
39th inst., at the residence of the brides father
W. 11. Brooks, of this City, by Rev. A. L.
Hamilton, D. D., Mr. WM. C. BROOKS, of
Columbus, Ga., fto> Miss OLA BROOKS.
It was our good fortune to be among the num
ber present on this auspicious occasion. Calm
ly and serenely the two Brooks (brooks) met
and melted into one, forming a deep and joyous
matrimonial rivulet, upon whose bright bosom,
danced and sported the golden gondola of the
Goddess of love.
“Flow on thou sbiniug river” without one
rock or ripple to agitate thy placid bosom, till
lost in the great ocean «f -eternity.
To the queenly bride and her handsome liege
lord, we extend our hearty congratulations.

Being manufactured in our own city by Messrs. WM. SCHLEY & CO.

W. Scblet & Co.—Gentlemen : V our letter of dhe 6th instant is at band, and I hasten to reply
I am much pleased with your Fertiliser, and take great pleasure in adding my testimony to its valuable
qualities. lam cow satisfied that where I used two hundred and fifty pounds per acre on cotton the
yield has been increased at least fifty per cent. In this year’s experiments it excelled Dixon’s Formula
and to shovf you my estimation of its value as a Fertilizer, you can send me one hundred tons within
the next month. Truly yours, jj. LOCKETT
tnn.i r . , , Al-baxy, Ga., November 6th, 1869.
YVm. Schley A Co.—Gentlemen : I purchased a few tons ol your Georgu Fertilizer last vear
which I applied to Bfiy acres of land in cotton, at the rate of two hundred aud fifty pounds per acre
The land was broken Irom eight to ten inches and the Fertilizer applied at the botiom of the bed Dhe
yield was very satis ctory. I shall gather over thirty bales of coilon from ibe field, YVitbout manure
with common preparation, *t would not have yielded over six or eight hundred pounds per acre With
good seasons it would have made one hale of five hundred ponndsper awe. Your Fertilizer excelled anv
olber that I used in producing a weed one-thild to ODe-fomth larger; and bnl for the fact that the seed
used was poor and mixed, the v*eld of fruit would have been greater than any other cotluu grown bv
me. lam satisfied that your Fertilizer is valuable, and will stand a drought better than any other fer
tit zer used in my section. lam sure that on my land, with proper preparation, good culture aud three
hundred pounds of your Fertilizer, wiih ordinary seasons, I can make one bale of cotton per ac-e and 1
shall be a customer of yours for the next year. Truly yours, D. A YASON

Thin hair is thick

Its occasional use will prevent the hair

nothing else can be found so desirable.
