don't make it any easier.
teiegrams of yes

ocratic State ticket was elected in Con
necticut on the 4th.
It is highly probable also that the
Democrats have carried both branches
of the Legislature.
Congrkm.— Tue Journal’s Washing
ton Special, of the sth, says : The Sen
ate to day considered and passed the
joint resolution paasod by the House,
relative to the sinking of the United
States stuniner Oneida, by the English
s earner Bombay, off the coast of Japan.
The considerate of the Georgia bill
was resumed.
Sumner made a charateristic «peoeh
in support of the original House bill,
with the Morton amendment attached,
and in opposition to the Bingham
amendment.
Mr. Carpenter followed with a Rtrong
Conservative and Constitutional address,
in the course of which he took occasion
to criticise the action of Sumner, Mor
ton and other leading spirits among the
Radicals, with the utmost severity.
The House of Representatives pass
ed a bill transferring the Freedman’s
Bureau to the Bureau of Education.
Gen Lkb.—Tuc ovation accorded to
this groat ohiefuio at every stage cf
his progress, show’s that the pulsations
of the Southern heart ur.e yet true to the
great principles which originated the
late war.
Though defeated and overthrown,
they are no less correct in the abstract,
sud should never bo abandoned.
Iji future we can only seek, however,
to impress them upon the nation by
reason and argument, aided powerfully
likewise by the lessons of past experi
ence.
Our Northern brethren are them
selves beginning to realize the fruition
of despotic rule, and the obliteration,
practically, of State lines.
Grievous taxation, class legislation,
tie sale of office, unprecedented squar.
de-ring of the people’s money, fraud in
high places, the prostitution of the
elective franchise, all predicted by the
South, and foivehadowed before the late
war, teach the wholesome mord, that
tha reform which they hoped to defeat
by the subjugatiop of our people, must
now be iuaugmajtcd by tbeni.selycs.
Nor would we be surprised jto see
the august hero niw laboring in seclu
sion for the good of mankind, elevated
by the spontaneous acclaim of the whole
nation tu the chief magistracy.
Tliep indeed might we hope that a
better day was dawning.

The Plot Thickens-
Gen. Grant has at length officially
proclaim**! -the adoption of the loth
Amendment, as an integral portion of
the Constitution of the United States.
For once also our rsticcnt President,
feeling free and easy before a negro au
dience, essayed to make “sumrant - ” of a
speech on the picayune order, and con- 4
grutulated Africa at this proudest
achievment of his horse administration.
And yet the Executive of a great,
nation knows full well, that the assigned
ratification of this article, which ele
vates ignorance, and degrades intelliv
genee, is a foul fraud perpetrated ia the
face of high heaven.
States notoriously excluded from the
Union and robbed and stripped of every
attribute of sovereignty, nay, even
while garrisoned by Federal troops,
and ruled by a military satrap, have
been forced to accord their assent to this
ultra radical measure, as a condition
precedent to their subsequent admis
sion, mid then for long weeks and
months denied tfcm pitiful boon they
sought. JL
Was ever such a poli
cy pursued on earth before, by a civil
ized government ?
Political jugglery like this out ller
ode UvrrxJ, and the blrnh the
punic faith of is emi.
neDtly worthy
Statesmen, who are the fathers and
promoters of the iniquity.
The fraudulent tinkering which
cheats and swindles in. the manufacture
of merchandise, and the intolerance and
bigotry which led to the fiery stake
helpless women charged with witchcraft,
are reproduced in national politics, to
the disgrace and scandal of all chrirten
dom.
True, such enactments sustained by
a corrupt and venal judiciary, and back
ed by armed legions, may be foisted
upon an indignant people who are pow.
erlesft to resist them. But who does
not believe, that they are coexistent
only with the domination of tho cor
rupt party that originated them ?
The tidal wave of reaction has al
ready swept over the Empire State,
and soon its billowy crest will dash
against the walls of the Capitol, and
like another deluge, submerge and
destroy the corrupt offijo holders of the
nation.
The attitude of Southern men there
fore and especially ths true sons of
Georgia, Trf view ot the defeat of the
Bingham Amendment, should be that
of calm remonstrance, until tha way to
the ballot box is again open. Then let
us try conclusions wit!) atjr enemies and
pronounce judgment upon their high
mimes and misdemeanors.
Who oan doubt the nature of the ver
dict ?
Time to Advertise.
Once more we take the liberty of dl
renting the attention of our business
men to the subject of advertising.
The opening of the Spriug trade, at a
time like the present, suggests the im
portance of keeping one's name, loea’jty
and special inducements 'to--purchasers,
constantly and prominently before the
people. While we have in Cuthbert,
-ome men who, from personal experience
know the benefits to be derived from a
discreet use of printer’s ink, and keep
up u living, business, oven through the
dullest seasons, there is a popular and
glaring fallacy, to wit: thut advertising
♦locs not bring trade, and will do no
good. Never a greater mistake. Ju
di* ious advertising is the life of trade,
and that merchant who thinks trade is
not induced to a place by the show of a
conspicuous advertisement, is certainly
blind to his own interests.
Au advertisement kept before the
public, is a perpetual sign and a perpet.
ual invitation to buyers—no mutter what
the business may be. Those who have
recognized the wisdom of a systematic
and judicious investment in advertising,
are the namea that now stand forth in
the whoki country, as the synonyms of
wealth.
Tho main reason why the few outstrip
the many, in the race after fortune, is
because of their superior sagacity in
availing themselves of a liberal use of
printer s ink. Those wh+i rely mainly
upon their business integrity, and vainly
imagine that business fi .ds the tnan, are
simply mistaken. In this progressive
age it is the man that finds the business.
We are frequently met with the objec
tion that advertising is too high. But
the fact is, advertising here is cheaper
than it is anywhere in the North or West
—where it is done by tiie line, at from
twenty cents to two dollars. Upsides,
if business men w’ero to adyertisa.liber
ally, publishers would soon be enabled
to make rates still lower ; whereas, by
only one in ten advertising, our terms
must remain as they are, to enable us t»
meat heavy current expenses. We are,
however, prepared to extend to our
merchants rpecial inducements, and will
give them no cause to complain of high
rates. Call upon us and be informed.
A good advertisement, truthfully says
tho LJ“field Advertiser, wifi ring longer
than any fire-bell, and is tho staff of
life in trade, j*.’st an bread is tho staff of
human life. Advertising enables a
business man to pla>'« his goods before
the eyes of who otherwise
would not know of their exiotepce, of
that of their owner.
The B. & A. R. R..Trocglbs.—The
press of Gerogiu will confer a favor by
publishing this statement. The recent
troubles were in consequence of a dis
pute detween the friends of the late Su
perintendent of Construction, Mr. F.
A. B»bcoek, and Col. E. Hulbert, the
Superintendent of the road, and not be
cause they \)ere not paid, nor becaiwe
they were paid in almost worthless
scrip; and was eqtirely devoid of polit
ical significance, both Messrs, Bab
cock and HulLeit ar& Republicans, and
so are tins m •j* >rity of their partisans. —

Pharisaical New England
For hypocrisy, intolerance, and caut,
this section of the Union which as
sumes par excellence to be a model for
the whole world, takes the lead.
With them cheating is reduced to a
serine, and like the Spartans of old,
stearng is only denounced, when so
transparent as to bo discoverable.
So in morals, clergymen preach poli
tics aQd a higher law doctrine, from the
pulpit, denounce slavery, and assume
tho asceticism of a Diogenes, whilst se
ducing the lambs of their flock, and
leading the vilest lives in secret. No
doctrine or tin i, however far fetched,
fails to find adherents here.
Yet the Sumners and Butlers of this
favored region are tiie avant couriers of
every reform and betterment of the
morals of the people. Wituess the pas
sage of the bill which virtually squelch
es Mo rmo u ism with the swotd.
\\ e esteem poligmav u great evil in the
territory of Deseret and Salt Lake, just
as we deplore paganism, and the war
ehipera of the sun,-and crocodiles in oth
er countries. Our blessed creed teach
es however that the Bible, and the light
of revelation alone, should exorwise
such heresies. Persecution, but adds
to their vitality, and the number of their
devoters.
But these sanctimonuwj*. reformers
should begin their work at^iomo.
Even Brigham, like Solomon of old
with his hundred wives, is far more en
durable than those northern communists,
who degrade woman to to the level of
the beust, anil utterly ignore the sacred
obligations of the marriage vow. Pes
tilential knaves, they »hou!d be wiped
out by the Ka-Kiutes, if the law is
powerless to reach them.
Listen to the following fcate of New
England depravity taken from the
Springfield Republican :
The Oneida (N. Y.) Communists,
who have a branch establishment at
Wallingford (Conn), are all well known
for making Social'sin peetwriurily a suc
cess, are getting ambitious of making
converts, we judge. At any rate, their
head man, John H. Noyes, the life and
brains of this peculiar organization—-as
Brigham Young is of Mnrntbnisin—has
w ritten a* book giving a history of Com
munisin in the United States, and set.
ting forth, with greater p'aiuness than
over before the belief of himself and his
followers. Tho foundation, stone of llie
community is the apostolic idea of hav
ing '‘all things in common, ,f including
person ,as well as properly, and this idea
is thoroughly carried oat at Oneida,
while we are informed that the Con
necticut estab'isa.merit is one with the
other, ‘-socially and financially.” No
su'-h distiriottion, as husband and wife,
parents and children, are recognized by
this community, but all are considered
as belonging to one another, relations
only being regulated by the attraction
that one has another. Among the
articles of the creed that legitimate
ly lbilow from this fundamental belief
are that shame is sin ; the abolition of
marriage and the .substitution of Com
munism is a Christian duty, etc.
Tiiis statement of the belief of the
Oneida Communists is no new thing,
and is only worthy of notice from the
broadness and frankness with which it
is now stuted by the le ider «>f the com
munity, and the evident attempt to at
tract attention by means of this book.—
It is also worthy of note that the people
professing and practising-.heae pritioi.
[lies —as much viler and more demoral
izing than Mormonism as can be imag
ined—are subject to no molestation, eith
er legal or unlawful, thought closely,
surrounded by neighbors to whom their
belief is no less abhorrent than their ac
tions. If any great assignation estab
lishment like this had been set up witti
out the pretence of religious belief to
buoy it up, it would have been disposed
of pretty quickly. But Americans are
very lenient to all forms and phases of
religious belief, and there is no denying
that it is a much belter way than to imi
tate the religious persecutions of the
Old World and the sixteenth century.—
But it is equally evident that this toler
ance permits some strange anomalies
both of government and social life ; and
it is hardly to be wondered at that for
eigners, who cannot be expected to
know us thoroughly, sometimes get- a
wtong impression of us when told that
we permit the Oneida Communists to
flourish in the heart of Now York and
allow the Mormons out :n Utah to have
as many wives as they want, though
everybody else is strictly limited to one.

The Fifteenth Amendment-
MESSAGE OF PRESIDENT GRANT.
PROCLAMATION OF SECRETARY FISH.
message of president grant to congress.
ExecdkvbMansion, March 30, 1870.
To the Senate and House oj Representa
tives :
It is unusual to notify the two Houses
of Congress by message of the pro
mulgatiow, by proclamation of the Sec
fetary of State, of the ratification of a
constitutional amendment. In view,
however, of the vast importance of the
Fifteenth Amendment ot the Constitu
tion, this day declared a part of that re
vered instrument, I deem a departure
irom the usual custom justifiable. A
measure which makes at once four rnil
iious of people voters who were hereto*
fore declared by the highest tribunal in
tiie land not citizens of the United
States, nor eligible to become so (with
the assertion that ‘‘at the time of the
Declaration of Independence the opinion
was fixed uuivorsal in the civilized por
tion of the white race, regarded as an
axiom in morals as well ns in politics,
that black men had no rights which
white men were bound to respect” ) is in
deed n measure of grander importance
than any other or\e act of the kind from
the foundation of our free government
to the present time.
Institutions like ours, in which all
power is derived directly from the peo
pie, must depend mainly upon their in
telligence, patriotism and industry. I
call the attention, therefore of the newly
enfranchised race to the
their striving in every honorable man
ner to make themselves worthy of their
new privilege. To the race more fa
vored heretofore by our laws, I would
say, withhold no legal privilege of ad
vancement to the new citizen. The fra
mers of oqr constitution firmly believed
that a republican form of government
could not endure without intelligence
and education generally diffused among
tho people. The “Father of his Coun
try,” iu his Farewell Address, uses this
language ;
“Promote, then, as a matter of prima
ry importance, institutions fur the gen
era! diffusion of knowledge. In propor
tion as the structure of government
gives force to public opinion, it is essen
lial that public opinion should be en
lightened.”
Iu his first annual message to Con
gress the same views were forcibly pre
seated, uud are again urged iu his eighth
message.
I repeat that the adoption of the Fif
teenth Amendment to the constitution
cwqvletes the greatest civil change and
constitutes the most important event
that has occurred since the nation came
into life. The change will be beneficial
in proportion to the heed that is given
to the urgent recommendations ui
Washington. If these recommenda
tions were important theu, with a popu
lation of Out a few millions, how much
more important now, with a population
of forty millions, and increasing in urop
id ratio!
I would, therefore, call upon Congress
to take all the means within their con
stitutional power to premote and en
courage popular education throughout
the country, and npoo the people every
wh re to see to it that all who possess
and exercise political rights shall have
the opportunity to acquire the knowl
edge which will make their share in the
government a blessing and not a dan
ger. By such means only can tiie bene
fits contemplated by this Amendment
to the constitution be secured.
