to the (ovrier-JournaT* specific
Tuitions;
Mr. Stephens; tell us f>r cisely what
n, e*n by refusing to rocognise (he valid*
, *- v of the Fourteenth and Fifteenth Amend
ments? Du you mean, when you get (he
power, to aet them aside? If you do, how
will you do it?
We menu that the people of the Uui
b and States at the polls shall refute to
vote for any man for any office, high
or low, State or Federal, who holds
the doctrine that the Constitution of
the United States Ims been, or can be
rightfully or mildly amended by “gross
usurpation” and acknowledged * fraud. ,
Jierjidy anti violence /” We mean tha.
when a majority of the House of Rep
resentatives in Congress shall be elect
ed ou this souud Constitutional basis
that they shall pay not the slightest
regard to that flugitous crime agaiust
the Constitution and the liberties of
the country, known as part of the
Fourteenth Amendment, so-called,
which attempts to fix other “qualifica
tions” for members of the House than
those prescribed in the Constitution.- -
Lord Coke said: “Parliament cannot
create disabilities.” So we say, and so
we would have each House of the Con
gress of the United States to declare;
and we would have the four millions of
the voters of the United States, who
hold the same opiuion, so to declare
their judgment at the polls; and yote
for no man who does not bold the same
opinion !
Just so with the office of Chief Mag
istrate. We mean that the same over
whelming majority of the people of the
Uuited States who feel and know that
these “interpolations” in tho Constitu
tion are nothing but the results of
usurpation aud fraud, shall vote for no
man who holds that the Constitution
can be rightfully or validly so amend
ed. In like manner, precisely as the
Democracy did in 1800 in the election
of Mr. Jefferson, on the validity of the
Alien and Sedition acts.
Just as the Democracy then triumph
ed and rescued the Government in its
fatal tendency to centralized despot
ism, so we mean that the Democracy
in 1872 should do. This is their high
mission, if they could but prove them-
Belves to be equal to its grand require
ments. This is how we propose to get
rid of these great frauds culled Consti
tutional Amendments.
11. Mr. Stephens; nfier you have got rid
of the amendments, what do you mean to do
with the negro? Having deprived him of
the guarantees contained in the amendments,
will you deprive him of suffrage and civil
rights? And in this latter event, what iB
your general idea as to the disposition that
ought to be made of him ?
We mean to do with the black pop
ulation just as with any other class of
the population in the country —that rs t
leave their status—their rights, civil
and political—with the States wherein
they reside respectively. Their free
dom is forever guarauteed to them by
the Thirteenth Amendment to the
Constitution, which was rightfully and
validly adopted by all the States most
deeply interested in the subject. As
to suffrage and what extent of civil or
political rights shall be extended to
this class of population, these are ques
tions for each State to determine for
itself. Congress has no more rightful
control over them than over woman
suffrage, Indian suffrage, or the civil
or political rights of any other class of
Imputation in the respective States. —
This is our view of this subject briefly
given.
Oar general idea as to the disposi
tion of this class of population is that
it ought to be dealt fairly and justly
by, in all the States; and that all rights,
civil and political, ought to be secured
to th< m by each State respectively, as
they prove themselves fit to have award
ed them. Ajj3 a Georgian we have no
disposition to interfere in the slightest
degree with the policy that Musuchu
sctts or Connecticut, or Kentucky or
Pennsylvania, or New York, may adopt,
each for itself, in regard to this race.
"We only protest that neither nor all of
these States shall interfere with that
policy which Georgia, in her ‘'wisdom,
moderation and justice,” shall deter
mine is for the best interest of both
races, within her limits and jurisdic
tion. She has herself, by her own act
and in good faith, forever, guaranteed
their freedom; and we have no doubt
will also forever award them all
their rights which they may prove
themselves to be fit to exercise for the
best iuterest of society.
These are questions, however, which
in no way rightfully belong to Federal
politics—and the taking jurisdiction of
by the Federal government, is it
'fcdlf the essence of centralism.
It is against this usurpation of power
—gross, wanton and destructive to our
.‘American system of local State govern-
mont—that we would have the De
mocracy of the Uniou to rally as one
j man in the gr< at struggle of 1872. It
is not for or against tl negro suffrage., ’’
or “negro civil or political rights,” the
rally should be made; but against those
who are for tearing down the whole
frarne-work of Federal Institutions.
In this stuggle, iu our judgment,
the motto of the Domocracy, emblnzou
i ed on every banner from Maine to Cali
fornia, should be the words of Chat
ham on a memorable occasion. This
was ou the question of the “disability”
of the House of Commous pi'onuncia
mento against the right of Wilkes to
hold a seat in that body.
“A breach has been made in the

in it.” A. H S.

School.
Messrs. Editors: I think honor
should be bestowed upon those to
whom honor is due; and acting upon
this principle, I venture, without con
sulting any one, to offer an humble,
voluntary tribute of praise to the
above institution, and to express my
appprobatiou of the course pursued by
Misses Safford and Moon, its accom
plished, Christian teachers; and to be
gin: I remark in the first place thai
the School seems to be under most
excellent government, which is proven
by the harmony which prevails among
the pupils, and their good deportment
in and out of School; and, in the sec
ond place, it is observed that the pu
pils all love the teachers, and often
express their admiration for them to
their parents. The rapid progress
made by the scholars in their studies,
added to the facts above mentioned,
are evidences of efficiency and pros
perity, aud entitle the institution to
the encouragement and support of our
people, aud the worthy teachers to
success in their noble work. It is to
be hoped then that the Cartersvilie
Female High School will receive that
amount o(f patronage which it so justly
deserves, aud its teachers the hearty
co operation of all who have the good
of society, and the welfare of their
children at heart. P. H. B.

The Infeuence of Bad Company
One day Robert's father saw him play
ing with some boys who were rude, un
manuerly. He had observed for some
time a change for the worse in his son,
and no whe knew the cause. He was
very sorry; but he said nothing to
Robert at the time.
In the evening he brought from the
garden six rosy-cheeked apples put
them on a plate, and presented them
to Robert. He was much pleased at
his father’s kindness, and thank him.
“You must lay them aside for a few
days, that the/ may become mellow,”
said the father; and Robert cheerfully
placed the plate with the apples in his
mother’s storeroom;
Just as he was putting them aside,
his father laid on the plate a seventh
apple, which was quite rotten, and de
sired him to let it remain there.
“But father, said Robert “the rotten
apple will spoil all the others.”
“Do you think so ? Why should not
the fresh apples rather make the rot
ton one fresh ? said his father.—And
with these words he shut tie door of
the room.
Eight days afterward, he asked his
son to open the door and take out the
apples. But what a sight presented
itself 1 The six sound apples which
had been so souud and rosy cheeked
were now quite rotten, and spread a
bad smell through the room.
“Father !” cried he, “did I not tell
you that the rotten apple would spoil
the good ones ? You did not listen to
me.”
“My boy,” said the father, “have I
not told jou often that the company
of bad children will make you bad, yet
you do not listen to me. See in the
state of the apples that which will hap
pen to you if you keep company with
wicked boys.”
Robert did not forget the lesson.—
When any bad boys asked him to play
with them, he thought of the rotten
apples, aud kept himself apart from
them.
Microscopic Wonders.
Lewenbock tells us of an insect seen
with a microscope, of which twenty
seven millions would oulj equal a mite.
Insects of various kinds may be seen
iu the cavities of a grain of sand.—
Mould is a forest of beautiful trees, with
the branches, leaves, and fruit. But
terflies are feathered. Hairs are hol
low tubes. The surface of our bodies
is covered with scales like a fish; a
single grain of sand would, cover one
hundred and fifty of these scales, and
yet a scale covers five hundred pores.
Through these narrow openings the
sweat forces itself like water through
a sieve. The mites make five steps a
second. Each drop of stignant water
contains a world of animated beings
swimming with as much liberty as
whales iu the sea. Each leaf has a
colony of insects grazing on it, like
cows on a meadow.

Roper Prolific Corn.
Much has been said about the best
kind of corn to plant, and the above has
been alternately condemned and ap
proved, according to the circumstances
attending its cultivation, but in this
section, at least, it has not had a fair
trial, or wo are quite sure it would
long since have superceded every oth
er for feeding stock. We have no per
sonal interest in recommending this
corn at this time, for we possess too
small a quantity of it for remunerative
sales, but when we have discovered a
good thing, we like for our neighbors
to profit by it.
We planted three acres of Roper’s
Prolific Corn last year, but the long
drouth and poor land made it a fail
ure. We gathered a few bushels how
ever from which we planted the present
year about four acres. Planted the
same poor land without a particle of
manure, but had better seasons and
better cultivation. It was planted
during the month of April from the
first to the last week at intervals.
We suppose it to have yielded with
out measurement, about fifteen bushels
per acre and the first planted, is now
(July 24th)thorougly dry on the stalks
and ready to be garnered. It is,
therefore, at least a month earlier than
any other corn we have, and if plant
ed the Ist of March it will be two
months earlier. Is not this a great
advantage among farmers who have to
buy corn at $1 50 per bushel ? If they
plant this corn they will have none to
buy after the first of August at fur
thest. Another advantage we claim
for this corn is, that it is prolvfw, and
will yield from three to five ears to the
stalk in rich land. This would much
more than double the quantity per acre
our farmers now make. The third and
tast great advantage we shall now
claim for it is that the Roper Prolfic is
a very hard solid and is not so rapidly
destroyed by the weavils as the com
mon corn cultivated among ua
\ Thomasuille Enterprise.
Tlie Prank of a Devil Fisli.
The Savannah Advertiser, in the
subjoined paragraph, narrates as an
actual fact an incident precisely simi
lar to that upon which Rev. F. R.
Gouding founds his popular story of
the Young Marooners. In the case of
latter the anchor was secured by a
chain, which the young crew of the
boat were unable to sever aud were
therefore towed out to sea beyond
sight and rescue :
One of those horrible looking crea
tures of the deep, better known as the
devil fish, whose appearance in the
waters of the coast are somewhat un
frequent, has been distinguished him
self lately by endeavoring to spirit
away one of our old residents.
Day before yesterday Major Bouaud,
who has many friends in this city, was
fishing in Warsaw sound, near Cab
bage aehuid, his boat being anchored.
By some rae&us or other, a devil fish
became entangled in the anchor rope
and started oft" at a rapid rate of speed,
towing the boat after liim, with the oc
cupants in no pleasant frame of mind.
The situation became so decidedly un
pleasant, that it was thought best to
cut the rope and let the fish go fancy
free. Unis was accordingly done, much
to the relief of the fisherman, and the
creature took its way in peace. A cir
cumstance something like this occurred
iu Charleston harbor not long since,
:he parties being nearly capsized.
The Devil mid Tom Walker.
E-erybody has heard, and a great many
make use of the expression, “the Devil and
Tom walker,” and yet we presume very few
know who Tom W. was, or what relation
between him and the Devil justifies this fre
quent association of their names. As the
most authentic accounts of who Tom Walker
was, we give the following interesting story
by the best writer America has ever pro
duced—Washington Irving ;
A STORY OF THE LAST CENTURY.
As Tom waxed old, hovever, he grew
thoughtful. Having secured the good things
of this world, he began to feel anxious about
the next. He thought with regret on the
bargain he had made with his black friend,
and put his wits to work to cheat him out of
his condition.—He became, therefore, all of
a sudden, a violent church-goer. He pray
ed loudly and strenuously, as if heaven were
to be carried by force of lungs. Indeed,
one might always tell when he had sinned
most during the week, by the clamor of his
Sunday devotion. The quiet Christians
who had been modestly and quietly travel
ing Zionward were struck with reproach at
seeing themselves so suddenly onstripped in
their career by this new-made convert.
Tom was as rigid in religion as in money
matters; he was a strong supervisor and
censurer of his neighbors and seemed to
think every sin entered up to their account
became a credit on his page.—He even
talked of the expediency of reviving the per
secution of Quakers and Anabaptists.
Still, in spite of his strenuous attention to
forms, Tom had a lurking dread that the
devil, after all, would have his due. That
he might not be taken unawares, therefore,
it is said he always carried a Bible in his
pocket. He also had a great folio Bible in
his counting-house desk, and would fre
quently be found reading when people call
ed on business ; on such occasions he would
lay his green spectacles on the book to
mark the place, while he turned around to
drive some usurious bargain.
Some say Tom grew a little crackbrained
in his latter days, and, that, fancying his
end approaching, he had his horse newly
shod, saddled and buried with his feet up.
permost, because that, at the last day, the
world would be turned upside down, in
which case he would find hia horge ready
for mounting, and he was determined at
worst to give his friend a run for it. This,
however, is probably a mere old wife’s fa
ble. If he ready did take that precaution,
it was totally superfluous—at least so says
the authentic old legend, which closes his
story in the following manner ;
One hot afternoon in the dog days, just as
a terrible black thunder gust came up, Tom
sat in his counting-house in his white linen
cap and India silk morning gown. lie was
on the point of foreclosing a mortgage, by
which he would complete the ruin of an un
happy speculator for whom lie had express
ed (he greatest friendship The. poor land job
ber begged him to grant a few mouths’ in
dulgence. Tom had grown testy and irri
tated, and refused.
“My family will be ruined and brought
upon the parise,” said the land jobber.
“Charity begins at home,” replied Tom.
«‘I must take care of myself these hard
times' ”
‘•You have made so much money out of
me,” said he; “I have not made a farthing.”
Just then there were three loud knocks at
the street door. He stepped out to see who
was there. A black man with a black
horse, which stampped and neighed with
impatience.
“Tom you are come for,” said the black
fellow, gruffly. Tom shrunk back, but too
late. He had left hiß little Bible at the bot
tom of his coat pocket, and his big Bible on
the desk, buried under the mortgage he was
about to foreclose—never was a poor sinner
taken more unaware. The black man
whisked him like a child astride the horse,
and away he gallopped in the midst of a
thunder storm.
Such was the end of Tom walker and his
ill-gotten wealth. •
The story has resolved itself into a pro
verb, and is the origin of the popular say
ing prevalent throughout New Edgland
“The Devil and Tom Walker.”
Belt’s just about as sensible to un
dertake to get married without court
ing as to try to do business without
advertising.
