THE SEMI-WEEKLY EXPRESS.
SAMUEL li. SMITH , Editor and Proprietor
CARTERSVILLE, QA., AUG.IQth, 1870
The Prolongation —It* Aim nnd
End.
Desperate cases call for desperate
remedies. The Radical party in the
State of Georgia, has drawn upon it
self, in consequence of its depravity,
the odium of every reputable white
man in the State. Its history here
has been a continued onslaught upon
the rights guaranteed by the Consti
tution of the country, and upon those
which the Constitution of the State
accords. The provisions of both for
the maintainance of order, for the se
curity of persons and property, for the
advancement of the public welfare and
the elvation of private character, and
for giving full scope to the energy and
enterprise which have made the peo
ple of Georgia so iliustiiouo, ha\c
been ruthlessly set aside, or designed
ly perverted whenever the interests of
that party required it. No law has
been too sacred for its touch; no indi
vidual right or interest safe when the
shadow of a pretext could be raised
for their invasion. The high places of
the State which, before the advent of
that party, were filled by men eminent
for private worth, and distinguished
for the commanding character of their
abilities, have been usurped by a class
of men whose disregard of the obliga
tions of their positions has inclined
for them the contempt of every honor
able man, and whose embecile at
tempts to statesmanship have made
them a mark of ridicule, e\en aiound
the camp fires of their own party.
These are facts known and read by
all men, and by none better than the
actors In this knowledge we have a
solution of the Prolongation edict—
If an election be held in November,
the status of the Legislature will
change. Statesmanship and integrity
will take the places of ignorance and
cupidity. A general overhauling of a
rotten administration will be had.
Matters will have a littL day-light
thrown upon them, which were con
ceived and executed and have boen
heretofore hidden in outer darkness.
The justness and propriety of bargains
will be boldly canvassed in the sight
and hearing of the people which were
made in the privacies of secret caucus
ses, or in the silence .of the committee
room. The hands that have crippled
the resources of the State, and have
so long and ceaselessly outraged her
honor and dignity will be held up to
public derision. These things press
with terrible force upon the minds of
the present mis-rulers of the State. —
They form the hand-writing on the
wall, each letter of which glows like a
living coal of fire, fraught with an
ominous retribution.
The case is desperate, and they have
but one remedy —that remedy as des
perate as their condition. They
the people of Georgia that “you shall
have no election. We will hold our
places; we will not give up our nine
dollars per day, and our perquisites;
we have not humbled you enough yet;
we have not crushed out enough of
your rebel spirit; we want to increase
your debt a little more —to cripple
your public resources and private en
terprises still more —to have your
fields sold by the Sheriff for taxes, and
the hum of machines to cease in your
shops and foundries.”
This is what prolongation means,
and this is what the people of Georgia
have to face. To meet it successfully
in a manner that shall overthrow
the matured plans of the enemies of
the State, and yet sustain their own
high character as noble men and intel
ligent citizens, will call for the exercise
of the most profound judgment, the
most temperate zeal, and a firmness
which, under no circumstances, should
be permitted to degenerate into harsh-
or recrimination. Let there be
nothing said or done upon which the
shadow of a charge can rest reflecting
upon either the legality or purity of
their action. The right to this elec
tion is indubitable—its exercise im
perative. Let good, true, conservative
men be brought forward, against whom
the cry of disqualification cannot be
raised —Georgians in deed and in
truth, whose interest are here, and to
whom her history is as dear as the re
cords of their own household. Let all
personal considerations be thrown
aside, all. prejudices be buried out of
sight. Let the magnitude of the is
sue and the best means of meeting it
be the all-adsorbing thought of every
Georgian.
The old cry will be raised that re
bellion is rife in the land, and be made
the pretext of the prolongation. It
lias lost its force, even with many of
the Radical party. It lost its force
with every decent white man and ne
gro, long ago. If vve had been inclin
ed to disregard the laws of the land,
have we not had cause every day since
the drama of Appomatox, to rise as a
people, and hurl from the honored
seats of the State these over-riders of
law, order and decency ? If we were
rebellious, would we not long ago have
walked in the State chambers and dis
solved its sessions^and sent out to the
just judgment of an outraged and in
dignant people, the representatives of
a party, for whom it was reserved, as
the culmination of their iniquity, to
make the council ball of the State, the
scene of a brutal murder—the victim
and criminal alike being of their own
household of faith ?
If it be not time now to crush out
such a rule as this, by all lawful
means, the time never will come. —
North Carolina has lifted herself up
heroically; Alabama is moving quietly
but gradually to the same result, and
if the public sentiment of the people of
Georgia, as expressed through the me
dium of an enlightened press, be a just
criterion, the ides of November will
lay forever low on the soil of the Em
pire State, a party whose principles
embrace the worst features of those
which made the reign of Rubespierre
and Danton a synonymn of infamy.
GEORGIA LEGISLATURE.
SENATE.
Monday, August 15, 1870.
Senate called to order by President
Conley.
Prayer by Wesley Prettyman.
Mr. Hinton withdrew motion to re
consider action on North and South
Railroad Company.
Bills were read the first time:
Mr. Wooten—To extend alimony
and provide for the custody of children
in certian divorce eases.
Mr. Jordan —To make valid the pri
vate sales of executors in certain cases.
Message received from the House
announcing their non-concuirence in
the prolongation resolutions.
Bills read third time:
To amend act incorporating Carters
ville.
Mr. Candler moved to take the bill
up by sections.
Messrs. Harris and Speer wished the
bill passed without reading it by sec
tions.
Messrs. Candler and Holcombe fa
vored reading it by sections.
The motion prevailed and the bill
was taken up and read by sections.
Mr. Candler offered a substitute for
the third section, by striking out all af
ter the word “assent,” and inserting a
proviso for the selection of disinterest
ed assessors, or arbitrators to assess
damages from opening or widening
streets, only when public convenience
requires, in accordance with the provi
sions of the Code, and providing, in
case of dissatisfaction with award, for
an appeal to the Superior Court.
Mr. Candler supported his substitute
in an able and pointed speech.
Mr. Brock arose, when Aaron Alpe
oria Bradley also arose, and remarked
that he thought that he was entitled to
the floor; that he had addressed the
Speaker first, but as usual he refused
to recognize him.
Mr. Speer said that if Bradley in
sulted the President again he would
move to expel him instanter. “The
Senator from the First should be kicked
out of the Senate chamber.
At the request of Bradley the objec
tionable words were taken down.
Mr. Higbee said that he regretted
that such indecorous words should be
used in the Senate chamber. Every
body on this floor are on an equality,
regardless of color or previous condi
tion. Be thought the Senator should
apologize for the words used.
Mr. Speer said that before he would
apologize he would suffer his right
hand severed from his body; he was
not made of such stuff. Bradley, he
said, rose when Brock did, and in his
impudent, insulting manner—
Bradley called for the word “impu
dent” to be taken down.
On motion, action was deferred un
til action was had on the bill under
consideration.
Mr. Brock resumed his argument
favoring the original section.
Mr. Dunning favored the original
section.
Aaron Alpeoria Bradley opposed the
original section.
Mr. Harris called the previous ques
tion.
The amendment was voted down.
Mr. Candler offered an amendment
to the fourth section, pro viding that no
purchase or sale shall be made until
notice shall have been published in the
newspapers for three weeks, and a ma
jority of the legal voters, at an election
held, shall ratify said purchase or bale.
Mr. Burns said that the thing had
been fixed to pass the bill as it came
from the House, and it was useless to
fight over it.
Mr. Candler advocated the amend
ment in a forcible and pungent speech.
Mr. Brock advocated the original
section.
The amendment was lost.
Mr. Candler offered an amendment
to the sth section, but Mr. Higbee call
ed the previous question (Judge J. R.
Parrott occupying a seat near him.)
The call for the previous question
was sustained and the original section
adopted
Mr. Candler offered an amendment
to the 6th section limiting the exten
sion of limits to one half mile.
The previous question was called
and the amendment lost.
The bill was then passed.
The Governor transmitted to the
Senate the following documents:
Report of Secretary of State; memo
rial to the General Assembly, adopted
by the convention of Judges of the Su
perior Courts; special report of Judge
Garnett Andrews, as provided in sec
tion 4569 of the code; annual report
of the superintendent of the public
works; and a message which we omit.
Mr. Burns offered a resolution, that
whereas parties have placed obstruc
tions on the Western and Atlantic
Railroad;, that the Governor and Su
perintendent of the road be requested
to use every exertion to have the per
petrators arrested and brought to jus
tice.
The message of the Governor was
referred to appropriate committees,
and 5,000 copies ordered printed.
Mr. Speer stated that in his remarks
about the Senator from the First, he
did not mean to offend the dignity of
the Senate, and without apologizing to
the Senator, made that disclaimer to
the Senate. The Senate received the
disclaimer as a sufficient apology.
Senate then adjourned.
FOREIGN.
A Great Rattle Fought—Prussian
Loss Over 40,000.
Verdun, August 16, 6 o’clock a. m.—
No news from Metz; nothing has oc
curred to-day. Cannon were heard all
day yesterday between Metz and Ver
dun. Persons from that direction say
a great battle was fought. The Prus
sians lost more than 40,000, and were
completely defeated.
The Bishop of Luxemburg and sev
eral clergymen liave gone to Metz to
comfort the dying.
Paris, August 17, 5 a. m.—The Jour
nal Official has nothing of the great
battle.
The Gaulois says that important and
satisfactory dispatches have been re
ceived, but Bazaine insists upon se
crecy.
London, August 17. —The garrison
at Strassburg made a sortie and were
driven back with heavy loss of men and
three cannons.
The Empress has made application
to the Belgian government for perrnis.
slon to traverse Belgium for England.
The Post says the telegraph lines
have been cut in the rear of the Prus
sians.
The French are chary of news. Fight
ing seems te be good for a week with
out decisive results. The French are
ready to fight till the end.
Tlie War.
A dispatch from Metz of August lltb,
at 8:15 p. m, says: “It has rained all
day. The army is concentrated aiound
this place. It is being revictualled and
reinforced. The retreat of McMahon
and Eailly has been accomplished in
excellent order.”
Berlin, August 12.—The Bavarians
passed through the Vosges and bivou
acked last night near Saarlouis.
We understand from these dispatch
es that McMahon’s and Eailly s forces
had succeeded in reaching Metz; also
that a portion of the Prussian troops
lately engaged in fighting McMahon
had arrived at the Prussian lines in
front of Metz. If this is what the
above dispatches mean, they show an
effort to concentrate all the available
forces on both sides for a grand tight.
„ [ Columbus Enquirer.
The Coming Canvass. The Augus
ta Chronicle & Sentinel thinks ‘there are
many reasons why the canvass in this
State should be made on purely local
or State issues. In the present condi
tion of national politics, the voice of
the people of Georgia would have little
iufiuence upon national affairs. While
there is so little difference of opinion
among the intelligent minds of the
State in regard to national politics, it
would seem quite superfluous to make
these questions, to any great extent,
at the leading ideas of the ap
proaching canvass.”
|A Defiant Letter to Holden.
The telegraph announced a day or
two ago the arrest of Mr. Turner edit
or of the Raleigh Sentinel, by order of
Governor Holden. The following let
ter may throw some light on the sub
ject:
. Hillsboro’, Aug. 3, 1870.
Governor Holden:
You say you will handle me in due
time. You white-livered miscreant, do
it now! You dared me to resist you;
I dare you to arrest me! lam here
to protect my family, xhe Jacobins of
your club, after shooting powder in
the face of Mrs. Turner, threw a five
pound rock through her window, which
struck near one of my children. Your
ignorant Jacobins are incited to this
by your lying charges against me—
that lam king of the Ku Klux. You
villian, come and arrest a man, and
order your secret clubs not to molest
women and children.
Yours, with contempt and defiance —
habeas corpus or no habeas corpus.
Josiah Turner, Jr.
Editor Raleigh Sentinel.
Congress. —A shrewd political statis
tician, reviewing the situation, says the
present House consists of 238 members
—Radicals, 163; Democrats, 75; and
the next House w 7 ill stand, in all prob
ability, Democrats 116, to Radicals 112.
He also designates seventeen districts
in which the Radicals, at the last elec
tion, had less than 500 majority; seven
in which they had less than 1,000, and
seven in which they had less than 1,500.
Now, it will only hike a change of 750
votes, even in the last districts named,
to make them Democratic this Fall.
New Punishment.
Malone, a private soldier in the Uni
ted States army, about ten days ago
killed Col. Buei. Malone was arrested
and killed for his infraction of military
law, in murdering his .superior. It
seems that Malone had been severely
punished by older of Col. Buei, and
had sworn vengeance. From the .Leav
enworth Herald we obtain the mode of
punishment inil.cied upon Malone by
order of Coi. Buei. Aiaionw was tied
down on his back in the sun, his face
besmeared with molasses, and compelled
to lie theie until the jlies had eaten the
molasses of. Could manhood have act
ed otherwise under the circumstancos ?
Did not Malone act as any other man
would have done that had been so cru
elly and humiliatingly punished ?
Atlanta, Ga., August 15, 1870 — Col
D. IV. Lewis , Secretary of Ike Georgia
Stale Agricultural Society ; Dear Sir —
To encourage our.young ladies to cook,
as well as to learn other habits of
house-keoping, I propose to fix up one

award it as a prize to that young lady
between 13 and 18 years of age, who
shall prepare, with her own hands, the
best meal for six persons, consisting of
the following bill of fare, to-wit: Ham
and cabbage, roast fowl and beef, rice?
Irish and sweet potatoes, maccaroni ?
corn bread and biscuits, pick da and
jelly; desert sponge cake, pudding
with sauce, mince pies, and domestic
wine. To be spread upon a table
which will be furnished for the occa

To avoid the controversy, each one
will be expected to furnish their own
materials for meals.
Respectfully, F. M. Richardson.

W. Lewis Secretary of State Agricultural
Society of Georgia— Dear Sir: Being

Has just heard of the death of Judge

The energy ot our Democratic cotem

Thus speaketh the blank who at

Right comes to most at last, but generally

the boon. Yet right triumphs—and it may
be some consolation to so assert. The pro*
gress in public esteem made by the use of the

this. Its march has been a rapid and' suc>-
cessful one, aud the palms of victory follow
