THE CfuTHEEBT ArPEAL KBI. HUH KVKIIY TUCBBOAV MORNING BY] SAWTELL & JOWES. 11. 11. JONES, Editor. THURSDAY, FEBRUARY 3, 1870. Gen. Lee has gone to attend the Peabody obsequies tl Portland Maine. Our Legislature it appears con* tinut f) to do nothing but draw their pay and dance attendance to “Massa Bul lock.” Fun for yon, but death to us. We verily believe the country would l,e better off il Georgia was spared the affliction of such another mauagerie of lining-el law givers, for a hundred years to come. llow can de colojne must, sell in Atlanta. The scarcity of field labors is a matter general complaint. Borne of our very best farmers are unsupplied. This should bo taken into account in future crop estimates, and will doubtless exert an influence upon the cotton market even during the pres tut season. Our people w ill be forced to supple *r,p in the labor supply, with their own brown muscle. A strong reserve can be brought to bear from the professions, and the idlers and supernumerary clerks of our towns and villages. To the leseue young n»eu, your country needs your services. jjßu The Bainbridge Argus announ ces the name of Dr. I. Hoyle as Local, and Dr. Brad w ell as Agricultural edi tor of that Journal. Mr. Benjamin Russell has now the editorial charge of-the Southern Sun. Our best wishes for the success of all ol them. • It Did’nt Pay.—Bullock has issued an cider reeding the publishing of his nu lin-rous proclamations etc., etc., in a large portion id the newspapers of the Slate, as has been done for a year pad, jit grievous cust to the country. It was a nice bait to buy off opposi tioo, but failed in must instances egie- griously. Printers don't endorse all they print, and many *of our noble- pressmen who have taken jobs ot the kind refered to, would be drawn and quartered ere they would ope their lips in behalf of Bul lock or radicalism. A few wore a little shaky, but we don’t w ish to bo .personal, iST The Savannah papers announce the death of Robert Habersham, Esq. ; fcged 86 years. Mr Habeusliam has been in mcrchaDlilo life more than a half century, aud belongs to one the oldest and most illustrious families of the htute. He was highly esteemed and respected. An Obsequious Crowd. —The Legis lature is so well broken in, that w hen any question is sprung in debate, the first inquiry is, how will Gen. Terry like it? Why not save our ruined people something by asking the General to or ganize his staff into a provisional con clave, for our government. It would nave time and money, aud work fully as Well. »©* Its is now believed that the U. B. Souate w ill refuse to seat Revels the iiegro senator from Mississippi. This i* poaching upon the Northern manor and won’t be allowed. It is only the South that must be niggerized. Very logical and correct we suppose. The Turnip OnnTßovßitsY. —Mr. J. I*. Roquemtire, of B irbour county, Al ii Itamu, sends us, by express, a single globe turnip, with which he expects to ‘•out-do” the achievements of Vineville; but not so. Mr. Roquemore’s turnip weighs only nine pounds and a halt, whereas the turnip sent by Mr. J. A. Virgin, of Vineville, weighed twelve pounds. We cheerfully admit that Mr. Roquemore’s is a turnip—yea, a large one; but it does not take the lead.— We h ave this year one turnip weighing 4£_two weighing 131—one weighing I*2, end one 9}—showing that this is a good turnip country even in a bad sea son. We clip the above from the Tele graph &, Messenger of u recent date. Now if brother Clisby will dispatch a wheel barrow to our office, we will send him a turnip raised by Uncle Billy Brooks, which will beat “Alabama, anl Vine vole” out of sight. But what is one turnip ? The writer j lnS had a half acre the present season it, the heart of this city, which will chal lenge comparison for stand, size and sweetness with any pirtcbdn the load.— Would it not be deemed apocryphal al if he wore to allege that he ouce rear ed 600 bushels of rutabagas on £ of an acre in Liberty county ? Vet such is the U 'ilas our Macon friend any thing fur ther to say on turnips ? N boro Outrage is Macon. —By pri vate letter liom Macon we learn of a horrible affair that happened in that j luce yesterday, which lias stirred the biood to a fever heat. The wife of a distinguished Divine was passing from the house of Colonel Whittle to her own home, about dusk in the evening, when a negro boy, in t: e employ of Ralston, attempted to i ullage her person. He threw her , IUV# n, choked and beat her, but failed in his diabolical purpose. The boy is arrested and in jail. Tm ji-ense excitement. —Atlanta Constitution. We forbear to give any particulars of the above diabolicai outrage, iudeterence to an ifiictcd and terribly aggrieved family. , , , . • , V, go will say that law does not exist in Georgia, while such a miscreant was permitted to await its tardy course, and tiie certainty exists that be will be per l. ilted to go scot free by the man they cull our Governor. An instance of astounding lib tiioiiiy shines forth in the case or a u.voice seeking woman in Columbus Ga , "ho stated iu court that she didn’t ject to R moderate amount of sinning, bill her huobuud wasn’t one oi the mod' • " >vi - Support Your Pastors. The New York Times states in an editorial, that the salaries of ministers in that city are wholly inadequate to their >ervires and necessities, in the large majority of cases. A short letter, over the signature of“ Missionary,” appeared in that journal a few duys after, the writer of which says : “God knows every word J-ott say is true. Many ol us have been crmpelled to wear second-hand clothes; and in addition to many deprivations and suf ferings, I was actually driven by neces. fcity to Sell a seal ring, which was an heirloom, a gold watch with chain, and with the consent of my wile a pair of bracelets. This is the way we get along. If the above be true in the opulent metropolis ol the nation, whose massive churches arc renowned For their archi tectural grandeur and beauty, while their interior decorations, vie with the palaces of royalty, what may be' said of the multitudes of Gods servants in the rural districts, who aie forced to eke out a subsistence upon the paltry pittance which is annually allowed. The rations, and annual stipend of many day laborers in the country, far exceed the emoluments of this devoted band, who are expected to be patterns of neatness, and prime movers in every work of charity and liberality. Sliat* out as they are from secular pursuits, and branded with worldlincss i/they even exhibit ordinary shrewdness in the plans and arrangements of life, to follow one of these worthies through the painful routine of their domestic economy, would develope facts, which should put to the blush the well fed and luxurious mem bers of their congregations. Oh who can estimate fully the trials, privations, and sad experience of the vil lage pastor, in his earnest and offtimes bootless efforts to make both eDds meet, at the close of the year. His excellent helpmeet may slave and toil, and pnteh and turn**the garments of her household, and pinch and reduce the homely fare of the table, until even ingenuity is at fault, and still debt, that cabalistic word, so re.jlete with shame and despair, ever threatens them, like the sword of Dam' odes. But even this might bo borne if superadded to all, the painful conscious ness did o6t obtrude itself, that the lit tle which w-as receiyed, had been giveD grudgingly. Alas 1 the opinion is too common > that the minister is a mere object of charity, to whom should be doled out such a support as will be least burden some, and most convenient to his patrons. Hence when money is subscribed, the butcher, the haberdasher, the tailor, and every other demand, lias precedence to that of the faithful laborer in the vine yard of his Lord. And yet of all men, the toil of the conscientious pastor is probably most arduous. In bis case if he would give “beaten oil” to his charge, the works of the fathers must be con sulted, the whole field of ecclesiastical lore explored, and the infidel, the athe ist, and the scuffjr met, and combatted at every point. Nor is there any “discharge in this warfare”. The work is ever beginning, never ending—there is no rest, no re spite, until death opens the gates of paradise. At tho nuptial ceremony, at the death bed of saint and sinner, amid scenes of sickness, contagion, and woe,he is constantly moving like an angel of mercy, while the burden of the souls of his precious flock, presses like a moun tain upon his head. Oh ye, who think the pastors office a sincecure and give stintingly to his ne cessities, consider those things, and open your hearts and your barns in his behalf. We were present at one of the church es of our city several sabbaths since, and heard the announcement made, that the retiring pastor had not been fully paid the slender salary allowed him for his manifold labors. Upon inquiry, the fact has transpired that all of the other congregations are also delinquent in this respect. And indeed, where is the church or community, of whom it can be asserted that the Pastor receives that measure of world!}’ support, and Christian sympa thy which is commensurate with his services and dsserts ? These things ought not so to be.— Justice, common honesty, humanity, du ty, God’s precepts au<f commands, all alike forbid it. Let us pay our faithful and beloved ministers the last cent we owe them, and double rather than dimin ish the scanty allowance vouchsafed for their maintenance. We give below, a single para graph from the paper submitted .by Tresure Angier, to the Congressional Reconstruction Committee. The Treasurers statements are lumi nous, pointed, and overpowering. There is not the least attempt to blunt the keen edge of the cutting Anglo Saxon expletives, which aro brought into re' quisilion. On the whole it is a very pretty quarrel, and the facts and nau< sealing details connected with the ca reer of the first radical Governor of Georgia, who was fished up from the dregs of the political chaldron by Fed eral bayonets, and is kept afloat by the same agency, must have been dama ging even to Republicans stomachs. But hear what au important State officer affirms of the Executive of Geor- gia- This is the man (Bullock) with all his corruptions, squandering the State’s funds by thousands, in his own interest, in violation of law, with mind so per verted that it seems to be his pleasure to shield and reward iniquity and pun ish honesty and virtue; who has the su perlative littleness to commence a vexa tious, malicious, libellous prosecution against an official because he dares tell the truth and act honestly ; and he finds miscreants to join him iu the cry, “Cru cify him ! crucify him ! !’’ who can get their hands into the State Treasury through executive patronage. Thus, by his reckless extravagance and in roads upon the Treasury, does he find willing accomplices in mischief, and forces poor Georgia to fu.uish the dag ger to cut her owu throat. Sadie aJism, Bullock, and Terry with His Bayonets, Successful- As will be seen from the record ol proceedings, and the published vote in another column, McWhorter the Radi cal nominee h„s been elected speaker of the Georgia House of Representatives, by a vote of 76 to 52. The Atlanta Constitution is severe in its strictures up. on those democrats, who, by scattering their votes, aided the radicals in their defeat of the conservatives. It asserts that had all stood firm in the support of Bryaut, a sufficient number of bolters from McWhorter, would have acted with the democrats, to have insured his overthrow. If this he true, the responsi bility resting upon these gentlemen among whom we arc soiry to note the name of our immediate representative, is heavy indeed. It matters not that Mr. Bryant was personally distasteful to any of them.— It is sufficient to know that he was in open antagonism to Bullock, and the most available candidate in the field. To compass the downfall of this potty despot, and save the State from the dread consequences of defeat, we would have been tempted to vote even for his Satanic Majesty bad it been necessary- That these indivduals acted from proper motives, we do not question. — Already however they must have seen the bitter fruits of their fully, in the swearing in of the infamous Jackson and others, in the places of those who resigned, or were ejected from their seats. It is some consolation to know, that the’ former is not the choice of our peo ple by 500 votes, nor is he a native, or even resident of the county it is decided he shall represent. The present Legislature as it former ly stood, made bankrupt of the finances cf the State. It is reserved for the same Body now, under radical manipulation, to bankrupt its reputation also. This is universal suffrage practically developed. .Legislative. The following proceedings of the House on the 28th, w-e copy from the Constitution: Hun A. L. Harris, Clerk pro tem., called the House to order at 10 o’clock. Prayer by Rev. C. W. Francis. The Clerk then read an order from the Governor, and also General Orders Nos. 9 and 10, from General Terry.— The orders ti Gen. Terry provided for the election of a Speaker, and announced the name of such members as were found ineligible by the Military Com-* mission, and also the names of those who were absent and unable to qualify. Mr. Scott, of Floyd, gave notice of his intention to file a protest aghinst the proceedings. The House then proceeded to elect a Speaker, the members voting as follows: For R. L.

Price received four votes, although he positively stated that he was not a candidate. Mr. SisßoD, of Fulton, voted for John Smith. The Clerk announced the following result : Whole No. of votes cast.. 133 Necessary lo a choice Jjl McWhorter Price - Smith - 1 The Chair declared Hon. R. L. Mc- Whorter duly elected Speaker of the, House, and appointed Messrs. Bryant and Scott to accompany him to the chair. Hon. A. L. Harris very briefly intro-, duced the Speaker and retired. Speaker McWhorter, on taking the Chair, briefly addressed the House as follows: Ho stated that the present Legisla ture was assembled here under the au thority of Congress. Reconstruction began more than four years ago, and he feared that we might live to regret our non-acceptance of the terms offered by that Congress. They offered more liberty than was ever before offered to a subjugated people. On our future conduct depends our very existence as a people. Moderation must rule the hour. Our national interests have been neglected. Our treasury is depleted.— Taxation lias becorne-burdensome. We cannot expect free-labor to be profitable without mental culture. Let us forget the past —that is gono forever—let us remember to-day, and devote our enefa gies to the prosperity of the State. He returned thanks to the House for the honor conferred upon him, and on motion, declared the House adjourned until 10 o’clock Wednesday morning. Note.— Just before the Clerk an nounced the result of the Speakers elec tion, Scott, of Floyd, requested him to record the votes of Messrs. Donald son, Talliaferro and Nunn. The Chairman declined, and referred to Geneial Order No. 10. He would allow no appeal from his decision. Mr. Scott said he would file a pro test. The three members above named were the only ones declared ineligible by Gen. Terry’s order. Weleher s case fs still under consideration. Ha is pro hibited from taking any part in the pro ceeding pending the investigation. Ihe other members tried are declared eligi ble. r Thunders of applause greeted the e e> tion of Sneaker Mo\\ hurter, and ttie utmost interest was manifested, not only by the members, but by the visitors present. The giHeriefl will be open to morrow. ffcgr- The following from_ the Albany News, would seem to indicate that the early construction of the Albany and Brunswick Railroad under the skilfull supervision of Col. Ilulbert, is an assur ed fact. It is well known that the route of this Road passes through our city.— With the completion of the same, to. gether’with the Bainbridge, Culhbert and Columbus enterprise. Cuthbert may justly claim to be one of the Rail road centers of Georgia. We trust so many avenues of commu nication with all portions of the State, and with the. markets of the world, will tell speedily and powerfully upon the prosperity of our town. With health unsurpassed by any spot on the globe, pure water, first class edu cational advantages, and a refined soci ety, what point can be better adapted for a permanent home to the planters of lower Georgia ? Many beautiful building sites crown ing our verdant hills, lay invitingly open to newcomers, and we trust a bright future is in store for us. The Brunswick and Albany Rail road.--A day or two ago, the Constitu tion chronicled the appointment of Col. E. Hulbert, as Superintendent of the above road. This line is destined to foira an im portant and leading chain in the great railway interests of the South, as yet in their curliest development. The distance from Brunswick to Al bany is 163 miles. The road will be completed October 15th. From Alba ny to Eufaula the distance is 70 miles, and the engineers are already doing their preliminary work on this portion of the great Southern route. 4,000 tons of iron are now being lauded, des tined especially for this lino. On its completion to Eufaula, it will connect with the Montgomery and Eufaula Railroad, already completed to Union Springs. Another company will, in time for the completion ol these projects, be ready to co-operate, extending the chain to Me ridian via Greenville. The new. road, whose name is at the head of this notice, will give us 165 miles shorter route in all main and sub ient connections. Its low grades and even cuuntry will enable it to be em phatically 7 a fast freight line. The magnificent land locked harbor of Brunswick will be not only the eutre pot of the South, but also the great coal station ; and the South will have a har bor, no lunger a suburban village, or a feeder to New York, as Norfolk is, but on her own territory, aud in her own in terests. Oc behalf of the public, wo congratu late the Albany and Brunswick Road on its new loader, Col. Hulbert, a man who can see two sides of thing, and who, above all petty interests and selfi.-.h combinations, sees only the unfolding of a gigantic system, only the outlines of which are declared as yet, but which shall connect the Northern' agricultural interests with the magnificent cotton belt of the South, by new and closer ties. —Albany H r ews. From the New York Democrat.— True, “Brick” every word es it. Just let the Tariff question,or the Al abama claims, or the fish bounties get up a little speck of war and then call for volunteers, or attempt to draft sol diers. ' Oil woulJ’nt we go fast and fight hard for the “dear old flag.” And these fanatics talk of concilia tion 1 So many generations cannot come and go in the Southland in all the fu ture years, as to permit this bitterness, and deep sense of shame and humilia tion to drop away. Babes now at the Southern mother’s breast will grow up most earnest ene mies of the Pharisees of New England, and for the wrongs done their sires will have revenge upon tha descendants of those Pharisees. This spirit -has been instigated and fostered by tho Nartb, and the North will be the sufferers. It cannot always rule and domineer as now. The Southern soldier’s sword will be passed down from father to son, during generation after generation, uii' til there shall be fitoedorn for the South or revenge for her wrongs. Tiie Greenline Exccrsioxists.— The Savannah papers are full of the de tails of the late visit of large delega tions of the merchant guilds of Cincin natti, Louisville, Nashville and Atlanta. No pains or expense were spared in the entertainment .of the distinguished guests. Dinners, boat races, excursions by rail and water, a visit to Fort Pulaski, toasts speechifying,champagne and com pliments, wor e the order of the day.— We trust our Western friends will re turn home more resolved than ever to bring closer and closer, the relations which naturally subsist between the two sections. The press was numerously and ably represented among the excursionists, and doubtless we shall have full reports of the trip, as seen through their corn spectacles. Such occasions form new eras of good will and kind feeling between all the parties concerned. Ranse on toe Rampage. —Gen. Wright, of the Augusta Chronicle & Sen tinel, thus disposes of the editor of the Atlanta Intelligencer, who’ for a long time essaying to “hold with the hounds, and run with the hare” is now the open, and paid apologist and eulogist of Bul lock and his gang. The General has an ugly way of hnn dling the cowhide, which might prove damaging to his antagonist in his pres ent irate mood. Don’t quarrel and fight gentlemen, or a military commission may snap you up in a twinkling. The flow of red flood, and the axe and guillotine are all that is wanting to complete the horrors of the Georgia itu ation. How do our Northern conserva tive brethren relish the picture ? The following is the extract alluded to ‘This conduct—these cowardly cal urn. nies of Jared I. Whitaker, Proprietor, of the Atlanta Intelligencer, upon us and the well known profession of his relations t > society, leaves us no other course than to publish what the public has long since suspected him to be, a bast and unprincipled traitor to hi* parly, an infamous slanderer and a ctntewptiblc apolojisi for theft and robbery.' Tiis Growing Important of Sa vannah- From the recent statement of cotton receipts at all the ports to this date, published by the Republican, we glean the following : Tho total receipts foot up 1,480,804 bales, against 1,176,174 to the same period last year, sh jwing an increase of 312,630 bales. The receipts of Savannah, have been proportionally larger than any other seaport. They show a total to date, since September, of 320,942 bales, or 100,666 bales more than the preceding year. Her exports to foreign ports, also exhibit the gratifying increuse of 66,676 bales over last year, and make a total of 126,849 bales to date. The receipts at the four principal cotton ports to date, are as follows : New Orleans, 518,302 bales; Savannah, 320, 912 bales ; Mobile, 192,134 bales; Charleston 152.144 bales. This is indeed a proud showing for our own beautiful and fi mrishing com mercial emporium, which is making gigantic strides in wealth and popula tion. Asa cotton market, no port in Ameri ca is its equal. Actual experiment will show that with the abatement of freights, it is fully up to New York figures, while tins picking and handling process in that will leave a margin in favor of Su. vanrah. We are g\d to learn also, that the immense whole sale and j ibhing Houses which have been established in tho lat ter city within the past year, aro draw ing a vast trade to that point. The bus iness of Savannah in all its departments has increased to an unprecedented ex' tent during the present season. Her tonnage too has only been excell ed by that of New York. Surely every Georgian should rejoice at the goodly prospects of our chief maratirno city, and strive by his patron aga to promote its prosperity in every possible manner. This is one way to assure the inde pendence of the South. BgL A theatrical manager at Madi son, Wis., would not advertise in the Democratic paper of the city because he was a Republican. lie was not troubled with any disloyal Democrats at his show, and his own party cleaned him out by passsing in free.

M Perhaps no one Medi cine is so universally required by every body as a cathartic, nor was ever any,be i'ore so universally adopted into use. in every country and among all classes, as this mild but efficient purgative Pill. The obvious reason is, that it is a inoi'e relia — ble and for more ef fectual remedy than any other. Those who have tried it, know that it cured them; those who have not, know that it cures their neighbors and friends; and all know that what it does once it does al ways that it never fails through any fault or neg glect of its composition. We have thousands upon thousands of certificates of their remarkable cures of the following complaints, but such cures are known in every neighborhood, and we need not publish them. Adapted to all ages and conditions m all climates; containing neither calomel nor any deleterious drug, they may be taken with safety by anybody. Their sugar-coating preserves them ever fresh, and makes them pleasant to take, while being ‘purely vegetable, no harm can arise from their use in any quantity. They operate by their powerful influence on the internal viscera to purify the blood and stimulate it into healthy action remove the obstructions of the stomach,bowels, liver, and other organs of the body, restoring their irregular action to health, . and by correcting, wherever they exist, such de rangements as are the first origin of disease. Minute directions are given in the wrapper on the box, for the following complaints, which these Pills rapidly cure: For liyspciMia or Knrtig-cstion, ListlcM ncu, lanruoi- and Lon* of Appetite, they should be taken moderately to stimulate the stom ach, and restore its healthy tone and action. For .Liver Complaint and its various symp toms, Bilious Headache, Sick Heart ache, Fauailice or Green Sickness, Bil ious Colic and Bilious Fevers, they should be judiciously taken for each case, to correct the diseased action or remove the obstructions which cause it. . For Dysentery or Diarrhoea, but one mild dose is generally required. For lihi'umatMin. Gout, Gravel, Pal pitation of the Heart, Bain in the hide, Back and Loins, they should be contin uously taken, as required, to change the diseased action of the system.
