Au Imposition on Newspaper
Publisliers.
Many advertisers have a practice, even
when they have but a small advertise
ment in a paper,of getting np a puffing
article for an editorial, from ten lines up to
a hundred or more, ami then modestly asks
lug tho publishers to insert it as reading
matter, free gratis for nothing. Now, at
ihe tnodciate rates of twenty cents per
line, which moat papers charge for insert
teg'bvsiMM notices in reading matter
type, the Iwe advertising that is thus coolly
requested would come to considerably
more than the advertisement which they
ay for. It is true lh »t there may be some
great pul I c enterprises which are worthy
of a liiwralitv on the part of the publisher
in the way of free notices, bd% as a gen
eral thing, those who ask this freo puffing,
hare no greater claims upon the public
press than any other advertiser. A pub*
lihlier* advertising columns arc his main
source of income and no in * has any more
right to ask for the gratuitous use of the
same than he has to request the freedom of
» clothing store, that he may help himself
to what suits him. Another imposition on
newspaper publishers is practiced by mag
azines, which expect, for an exchange, a
notice every month, at least equal in value
to their magizinc for a whole year. Not
Jong ago, just after wo had given a lead
ing monthly a notice which ut our regular
rales amounted to just about a year's sub
scriplion to the magazine, we received a
polite circular fioni the publishers stating
that their exchange list had become so
large that they regretted being obliged to
discontinue sending it to many papers,
am] wo have not received it since. Is it
m>t time that newspaper men determined
no longer to submit to such imposition!-1

AMNESTY DEFEATED.
The loss of the amnesty bill in tho Sen
•te was reported yesterday by telegraph.
The measure was not allowed to come up
mi its merits, and met with a fair consid
eration. It was clogged with odious
•mcwlmi nts which compelled its real
hit mis tu turn their back upon it.
This result is to be regretted. It proves
•hat whatever may be the will of tho peo
t'li*, there are and, magogucs in Congress who
hivcbti'h the will and the power to defeat
Ii proves that this hitter class have no
and 'Sirc for pacificati >n, that their little souls
arc crammed with hate; that malice and
»1 uncliai itableness, and the welfare of the
country ha* no lodgement in their*' hearts*
lVcll.be it so. It is the whole country
lint is to snffjr from his vindictive spirit
on the part of S-untor*. T.n South de«
sirm amnesty only that she may be secured
•ii good government at h_,roe. It would
enlarge the field of choice in the se’ection
| fur public trusts, and secure wisdom and
fidelity in their administration. But few
lof the prescribed men of the South aspire
I to Federal honors at the present day. Sen
sible men seldom wish to occupy positions
in here both their influence and their wishes
iwill go for naught. Wo can imagine no
fciorc unhappy situation in which a true
fv'Ulhem man can oow be placed, than a
keat in either branch of tbo Federal Legist
l»tprc, where he is regarded by the major
ity who control the government as a po
■ t ea, outcast, a criminal. It cannot be
Vcinnt for a man of spirit and patriotism
■o listen to the vile slanders and anathe*

y*t to Congress that the Southern people

VOL- VI.
THE WAR CLOUD—POSITION- OF
THE ADMINISTRATION.
A Washington letter of the 7th instant,
to Baltimore Gazette, says :
The position taken by gentlemen closely
connected with the administration of the
Government is: Tnat the British High Corn*
tnissioners perfectly understood the views
of the .America, High Commissioner^,Jii the
negotiation of the Treaty of Washington
both from its terms and the assertions in the
protocol, and that therefore our Govern*"
ment is altogrthei justified in presenting
the case as it has—claiming consequents!
damages. In case the Board of Arbitra
tors shall not award a gross sum, In satis
faction of the socalled . Alabama Claims
this Government is willing to stand by the
decision of the Arbitrators. It is known
that though the British Commissioner had
full power, they frequently conrultedt their
Horae Government, and acted in accordance
with its wishes in all they did*
It is officially asserted that if the claim
for consequential damages had not been
presented, and was not to be passed upon,
there might be a complaint by the people
of the United States that provision wa
made for a partial settlement only of the
difference be' won the two countries. Such
claim wa«, therefore, presented for a full
settlement in the interests of peace and to
preclude future disputes. This Govern
ment has not yet received the text of the
letter from Lord Granville to General
Scbuck, and therefore cannot take official
action upon it.
There is no probability whatever that
our Governments will withdraw any part
of its statement of the case, but will leave
the British Government to pursue its own
course, or the tribunal arbitrators to act
iu the premises according to the treaty
stipulations. Nor is it likely that our coun
sel will take any action in ordui to accom
odate the British Government.
The correspondent of the Sun, in his dis
patch of the Btb, says the excitement that
continues in Loudon over tho ./Lnerican
case submitted to the Geneva conference
is not responded to, at least in Washing
ton, where all extraordinary interest in
the matter seems to have ceased ftom the
act that the whole issue is looked upon
as a question of the construction of the
treaty, and therefore a matter for the arbi
trators to decide.
It is stated by the members of the Cabis
net that ihe claim for consequental damas
ges was placed in the cage for one reason
for no other, in order to make it complete
and not leave it open to the charge that it
was only a partial presentation of the
American claims. It is understood that
Minister Schenck has been informed of this
view. The text of Earl Granville’s dispatch
is expected by mail. The tenor it is
neither a demand for a withdrawal of the
case uor suggestion for a modification of it
but merely a statement. It is believed that
the British Government did not understand
that the censequeutal claims were to be
submitted.
Railroads. —We find the following Rail
road information in the Eliniia Gazette:
There are 62,646 miles of railroad in the
United States.
Minnesota now has 1.550£ miles of rail*
road, 4611 built in 1871.
The net earnings of the Central Pacific
Railroad for 1871 was $5,229,914,04.
The Susquehanna canal has been leased'
by the Reading Railroad for 999 years*
St. Louis received 880,346 tons of
freight, aud shipped 773,179, by the river
lu ldll.
The fast railway trains in England run
at the averago rate of from 40 to 45 miles
an hour.
The new iron drawbridge across the Mis
sissippi, at Winonn, was satisfactorily tes
ted with 150 tons in weight on January 17.
The iucrease of travel over Massachu
setts railroads last year over the vear pre
vious was 11| per cent. Increase of gross
earnings, 9 pet cent.
The Erie Railway cost including equip
ment, $106,904,362. Its gross earnings
for the year euding Sept. 30, 1871, was
$17,163,005,16; net earnings, $4,721,649,29.
England has 45,537 miles of railway
representing a capital of $2,564,000,000.
The gross receipts per year are estimated
at $14,000 per mile, and expeuses of opera
ting $6,800 per mile.
It was estimated that the average earn
ings of the 53,399 miles of railroad in the
| United Stales for 1870 was $9,000 per
| mile. No estimate that can be considered
i accurate has been made for the year 1871.
BAINBBIDGE GA., £EBUBARI 17tb 1872
Smugglings —We learn from good author*
ity, says tbe|Key West Dispatch, of the
JOth ulf., that the steamer Liberty, which
arrived at tnis port on Tuesday afternoon
last, had on board some six packages of
segars that did not appear npon her man
ifest, but which, it is said, were shipped
under consular certificate and seal at Ha
vana. One of these packages was ad
dressed to His Excellency U. S. Grant, an
other to Mr* Robeson, Secretary of the Na
vy, another to Mr. Fish, Secretary of St ate
and ‘.heathers to different members of Gen
eral Grant’s Cabinet—in all abmt 6,000
segars. Had these Rpgars been addressed
to any other six citizens of the United
States, the Custom House officers at this
place would have ponneed upon them, and
probably mulcted tbe captain of the steam
er to a heavy fine, or have sought the cou*
fiscation of the vessel.
We regret to say that the exalted official
positions of the recipients of these sugars
so overshadowed the laws of the land
that they were suffered to go on’their way
to Baltimore. We trust that the custom
officers at this port will exhibit a little
backbone in the matter, and compel Mr. U.
S. Grant and his confreres to duly enter
tho segars and pay the statutory duties
thereon. VY e are at a loss to discover any
more privilege in .General Grant to smoke
smuggled segars'lhau there is in Geueral
Tom Thumb.
A farmer near Cedar'rapids,’lowa, pur
chased a few months Ago,Til the northwes
tern partjof the State,|a herd of niue elk
and two deer, and proposes to press into
farm service the male portion of the former
by training them to submit to the yoke.
They are somewhat defi int k ’at times, and at
other times allow their hides to be scratch
ed and themselves to be bandied, as good
docile cattle ought to, without resistance.
They are turned into the fields with the
rest of the stock, and enjoy all the privile
ges of the farm, which they do not abuse,
us many animals more domesticated some,,
times do. Their'owner has -been offered
$1,400 for the herd but declines to sell.
A man in Danbury discovered that pow
der fried in lard was good for boils* He
tried it. The stove-cover is in the second
story now, though most of tLeTest of the
stove has been collected. He was deceived
in his lard, lie says.
The Prize Money of the Late War. —The
total amount of prize money deposited in
the United State Treasury, as arising out
of the war of rebellion up to the Ist instant
is $13,066,287 13 Tlrs is only half the net
proceeds after sale, the other half being
divided among the offic rs and crews of the
vessels participating in the captures of
prizes, one-twentieth going to the Captains
of the vessels.
A Drmqhtpul Rumor. —No rumor for years has
afforded us so much pleasure as that which indi
cates the appointment of the lion. Herschel V
Johnson to the Supreme Bench of this Stat®
Such a man added to the incorruptible Chief Jus
tice would indeed assure us that there is a tribu
nal wherejthe rights of citizens will be secure in
the last resort. When heassends that Bench the
song of deliverence from the night of Radicalism
and oppression may be appropriately raised. He
is the right man for the position, for in him w
have the genius of a statesman combined w ih the
capacity of a great and incoruptible jurist.
A long life of general usefulness to his native
State"presents him as a fit subject for the prid e of
Georgians, and as one in whom there is no guile.
Let us have him. The appointment would im
mortalize the Governor who might make it
Newnan Defender,
Club Women.— A new club in New Yerfc
city—the standard, founded four years and
a half ago by a company of Gennans-r
--admits laidies to its privileges, and so
makes anew departure. The members see
no good reason why women should be ex*
eluded from sosial enjoyment and harmless
recreation. Therefore we read of a ladio’s
parlor in the new club house, frescoed in
light blue, and furnished sumptuously in
blue satiu, with luxurious hangings and
ornaments* It is not surprising to hear
that the club-women, have been invi
ted to join the club, men of their households
regard the iositution of the with more favor
than formely. It is to be presumed that
clubs become refined, like every other circle
in society by presence of the gentle sex.—
