Christmas-Express and Ourself AWI AL COMMI \lf ATIOX The Curtersville Express* We are happy to congratulate the readers of the Express, at t ! e ciono of the year 1870, upon ftheir good fortune in being surrounded with peace and plenty. A merciful Providence has. graciously smiled upon onr country one more time, and crowned the la bors of the'year with a bountiful har vest. The cry of destitution and want has been hushed in our streets and lanes, and our graineries teem with golden grain, and our larders overrun with fatness. Let all eyes be turned to the great Giver of these bounties, and all hearts swell with gratitude to Him for these inestimable blessings,! and all tongues proclaim his praise! and speak of His goodness, for He has j dealt bountifully with us. In a few more days an opportunity will bo af forded, one and all, to celebrate His Advent into the world, as He lay in the humble rnangerat Betklahem, when', the Morning Stars sang together and the Sons of God shouted for joy ; yea, as like the wise men who saw His star in the East, and with their gifts and offerings cameHorth and worship ped Him, thereby recognizing Him as their infant Saviour and Redeemer, bo 1 ‘t us, as a Christian community, in like manner, bring our offerings to the altar and confess our sins, implore His forgiveness, plead the merits of His atoning blood shed for the remission of our sins, that, like the shepherds, we many hear the voices of the Angels of Mercy as they shout “Lo we bring you glad tidings of great joy,” which was “to you , this day, in the City of David, is born a Prince and a Saviour,'’ that we, too, may sing together and shout for joy, at the recurrence of this' glorious event and happy Day, com memorated as the birth day of our blessed Saviour—the 25th day ot De cember, in the year of our Lord, 1870. In regard to the conduct of our pa-, per, we have this to sa} r , we have serv ed you to the best of our ability. It is for our readers to say how well that has been. Thus far it has won its way upon its own merits, without any bl i tant praise or fulsome eulogies from its j editorials. Upon its own merits it will j stand or fall. We, however, have no j complaint to make on the score of pat- j ronage. The good people of Carters- j ville and Bartow County have bestow- j ed upon our journal that liberal pat-.j rcM'nge for which our business men | and citizens generally are so justly celebrated, and for which we ten pro foundly thankful. Our subscription Ist, already large, is being daily added too. We now’ send out, in every di rection, One Thousand copies <j] the Tx- j press Weekly ; or five hundred copies twice a week. Our list would have been j still larger, but for the late revision of the same. Although it is published twice a week, we onlj intend it as a weekly paper, and have fixed the price accordingly at Two Dollars a year, in Advance— the price of weeklies gener ally. We print it twice a week oil ac count of a majority of the mails going out from Carters ville *nd other Rail road points in the county, being often cr than weekly ones. Since the war ihe columns of the Expbkss have been zealously devoted to the interests of oar growing and prosperous town, county, and section. Ere yet the smoke of battle, and deb ris of burnt towns, mills, factories and devastated plantations, has cleared a-j way a lid s< tr ed down, wo returned to our llr at love —Cartersvdle —where we j had ’abort'd before, after spending and j being spent in serving our country in j the Army of Northern \ irginja, for four j tedious and bloody years, most of the time indirectly under the lead of the South’s great and later lamented Cap tarn, Gfh. R. L. Lev, and directly un der the command of Gens. Raw ton, 'Cordon, and Evans, and in the regi ment commanded by the late chival rous and gall an t Col. Wm. 11. Stiles, Sr., first in the capacity of an anus bearing soldier, tiien as Chaplain of the brave and undaunted old COtUGa., up to the closing scenes of the war at Appomattox C. 11., on the 9th of April, when, without money or sympa ' tkizers, we, toget her with our comrades, with nothing but our paroles in our i pockets, minus the galling knapsack and weighty musket, turned our foot steps homeward to dear old Georgia, a distance of 1200 mil <t Impelled | onward by lovely faces smiling through tears which we knew awaited ourfoot -1 steps upon the threshold of home, sweet home, to welcome ns to their embra ces ns alive from tho dead, we bid a dien to the sleeping dust of our loved fallen comrades, scattered over the go ry plains of old Virginia, Maryland apd Pennsylvania, and begging our way, from house to house, after a wear isome,tnp of seventeen days and nights, we. at last, with garments tattered and lorn, and faces weather-beaten and worn by anxiety and caie, planted our feet within the pales of the long de serted family circle, where we sang with spirit an 1 zest “Home again.” .At the close of that year we getker jed up our little family, who had refu- I good to Griffin, Ga., and returned to j Carteriville —our long coveted home— and gathering up what little means we could command, in company with our associate in badness, Mr. R. P. Milam, we purchased a second-hand printing office, with but money enough to pay the freight on it, and on the 2nd day of January, 18G6, from the Presbyteri an Church, (which was then prostitu ted to any and all purposes—wrecked and ruined by unscrupulous soldiers ) wo issued tho first number, (after the war,) of the Curlersvilie Express ; the i wn.gf in .nut. obmlLl £»rl jbeu o fiber lodgement for our office. Since that time, though we have been com pelled to move the same from house to house, besideßjbeing very nearly burn ed out twice, we have not failed to chronicle any and every thing that would, in the least, tend to the build ing up and advancement of our town, county, and section, and ever expect so to do, the good Lord being our helper. In conclusion, we heartily congrat ulate the good people of Cal’tersville, Bartow County, and Cherokee Geor gia, upon tho surprising advancement they have made, under all the adverse circumstances, in retrieving their bro ken fortunes, and restoring the coun try to its wonted prosperity.—truly, “the sword has been turned into a ploughshare and the spear into a pru ning hook.” May prosperity ever at tend your efforts in the future, and may you, one and all, enjoy a merry Christinas and a happy New Yearl Communicated. What do we understand by Democ racy as a party cognomen ? The his tory of political conventions does, not afford a platform comparable to that recently proclaimed byftke Democrat ic Convention, at Atlanta. That plat form, is remarkable alike for its brevi ty and significance. This Unibn is a compjact of States, and the Slates are in destructible. Whoever saw' bo much matter expressed in so few words? Yet, we must not agitate State Rights. To observe reticency towards State Rights, is virtually to ignore the Dour ocratic platform. If, Mr. Editor. State Rights must be suppressed, then read me out of the Democratic party, and give it another name. The plat form covers the whole question; and upon ihe settlement of these two vital propositions, to-wit: This Union is a indestructible, will settle every impor taut issue of principle which divides the American people. Yet, strange to say, old issues must not be agitated.—- Take care, Conservative Democrat, that you do not apostatize. Labored efforts have been made, in every pos sible form, to impress upon the Ameri can mind, the erroneous and danger ous dogma that the people, and not the States, formed this Union. Men rarely devote time and labor without a purpose. Why invoke this heresy so persistently, and present it so prorn ; ihently and forcibly in every speech, | essay or political work? For the ob- I vidua reason, that when once the doc ! trine of the profie, the good people, and I not the States, made, established and ratified, the Federal Constitution shall be coneeded, the doctrine of consolida tion is inevitably established, and con ’ stitutional liberty at an end. What do we mean by a State? If I say the State has made provision for t y, Common School, I evidently mean the ,j government, or Legislature. If I say the State is taxed to support Common Schools, I mean the people. Hence, j the word State is not univocal, but has a plurality of meanings, i It is said, that the States did not, t by their functionaries, «n »be this gov j eminent, That, unless the States, by or through, their respective functiona . riesi, united and formed this Union, it I was, of necessity, formed by the people. Did any man ever hear of a political Stite, without people? You may mark out a State on paper, and i call it a State geographically, but not ! politically. And to speak of a State • u connection with the formation of the federal compact, we speak politi cally, as a body politic. What do we mean by functionary of a Slate ? The Governor is a functionary. The Leg islature, as a whole, is a functionary of the State. The Governors, it is true, did not officiate in trie foi ination of this Union, because they were not clothed with the j-ower, but were elect ed for local and domestic purposes.— Could the people not have authorized j their respective Governors to form ; this Union ? They did nc4. so act*—. I But the Legislatures of the respective ! old thirteen States, did send their del- I egates to the Convention of 17#7, which the Constitution. I would be pleased to kuow if the Gov j ernor was paramount to the Legisla ture as a functionary. But it is said, with an air of triumph, that the peo ple ratified. What people ? The whole people of tho thirteen States aggregately ? As one community ? i Not so. Each State met in convention, | and what was that convention but a high functionary of a Sovereign State? The original colonies, all received grants from the English Crown, as j distinct, separate communities. They : acknowledged no superior, save the j Crown of England. Whan, in 1783, j the King of England recognized the i Independence of the American States, he did it by name, severally, and not as an aggregate community. In ail the official relations between the States, prior to 1787, credentials of Agents were required. After their ludepend b«en acknowledged bv 4 »«* English Crown, the several States were sovereign to tin full sense of the term. They have only parted with certain attributes of that sovereignty, as specially enumerated in the Consti tution. But, says one, all the attri butes of sovereignty have been volun tarily delegated to Congress. I deny it. What, in the catalogue of rights, do men prize most high which govern ment was instituted to protect ? The right of life, and property; when life is endangered, or property taken, do men appeal to the Federal or State law? The whole penal code is State; and tho protection of property and the pursuit of happiness, is State. The larger amoui t of controversy among men, arises from a difference of verbal criticism. This is caused by tho imperfection of the English lan guage; this is true in theology and eth ics, as well ns politics all professions and sciences have their technicalities. Were men to study the import of words more closely, controversy, in ev ery department, would diminish. There are few, if any, great principles of religion or government, but have been exhausted by master intellects.— What men say, in argument, has-been said before. Notwithstanding the many sects of Christians in the world it will be found, on close examination, Jkat every single sect of Protestant, Orthodox Christianity, when he analy zes his creed, that he falls under one of two great parties which divide the Orthodox, Protestant world; viz: Cal vinism or Armenianism. Touching the subject of redemption, they have exhausted it. Equally true is it, in American politics. I care not by what name a man is known, politically, he must align himself in the ranks of that party which has ever contended for a consolidation of the powers of this gov ernment in Congress, or that party which has ever opposed consolidation, and 'strenuously battles for a ctistriti'u- 1 tion of power amongst the different de partments of the g neral government and the States. This issue, Mr. Edi tor, is coeval with the government it self, and Democracy has ever contend ed for distribution, contends for it to day, and ever will contend. The De- mocracy for which I write, is the Jeffer sonian Democracy; no newly gotten up-ism, but as old as American Repub licanism. A Democracy that has been baptized in the blood of heroes, and stands to-day defiantly, invincible and invulnerable. Democracy demands retrenchment, and reform of this government in all its laws, its policy and its organic struc ture. Our State constitution is defective, our Legislature is corrupt, our high functionaries are incompetent, improv ident and whose corruption “smells to Htpven.” I propose now, to give the pedigree of Radicalism, in all soberness. Radicalism was the legitunato oil spring of the marriage between Feder alist as the father, and Abolition as the mother. Federalist was an illegitimate son of an illicit; connection between Monarchy and a young maid by the name of Republicanism. This girl, like Aielchisidec. had neither father nor mo ther, but was adopted by Washington and his compatriots. Through the in- I trigues and machinations of one Alex -1 under Hamilton, this maid was seduc- I e d. Thi i Hamilton adopted the boy | Federalist, and through the popularity j of Washington, got him in possession ! of the government. ’ This maid bore another son, and called hij true Anti-Federalist. Some 1 tkmk J* arson was his father. He j was adoj m by Jefferson, and in 1800, supplant i his holy brother Federalist, and got ssession of the government, and kept t for forty years, except the time J. Adams had it. Jefferson changed Is name to Democratic Re publican. \ i The mafccr of Radicalism was the j , result of okamage btween, one Jacob, a FjvnoLuiufi and a Miss Emancipa tion, (A4~>a»zaAitm. J- lC lk> % me times calf e J Jacobin, was 'the son oUFanatieism by a Miss Illu miuhVm, from Germany. She was I supposed to have covne directly from Heaten, on a mission, as her name iu ■ dicajes, to illuminate tho mind* of men jon the subject of Religion, but piiuci j pwlly to free it from popish errors.— j bke soon apostatized and went into ! politics, doctrine was, that man k and certain indefeasible, impre scriptible, inalienable, natural rights j ami that ly virtue of these rights, he, was a cosmopolite; aud furthermore, these rights being inherent, they were incompatible with surbordination and religious restraint of any kind.— Jacob was fully educated in this school, and made bis debut in France. He preached the doctrine of his parents, and cried aloud for liberty,fraternity and universal equality. It requires no accutenoss of optics to discern the striking family resem blance of Radicalism to his ancestors. The greatest apprehension is, that he will o-jp 1 l Jacob. Jacob, it will be remembered, undertook to reconstruct the French Government. After making short work of royalty, by putting it to the wheel, he found it exceedingly difficult to stop reconstruction. His disciples having nothing else to reconstruct, at tempted the reconstruction of each other, and but for the opportune ad vent of Napoleon, who directed their belligerent propensities to Africa, the tragedy of the Rilkinuey Cats, of Ire land would have been re-enacted. Bard seems to be satisfied, and it is to be hope and others will follow his lead. Bullock and his clan, I fear, are incor rigible, because insatiablea. To recon struct a white man into a negro, or to reconstruct a negro into a white man, is as difficult as it is dangerous. 1 hope in this brief statement of Radi cal lineal docent, by allegory, I have not done him injustice. Democracy having had possession of the Govern ment fifty two years out of sixty, it re mains to be seen who will hold it for the time to come. I have no fault to find with the fun damental principles of the Federal Government. Scientifically, our Gov ernment is unobjectioiml, but the art is what I deplore. Our government differs from all oth ers in the world, both in its orign and form. History tells of no government having a like origin to ours; nor is there one identical in form or struc ture. Ours combines all the advanta ges, without the disadvantages of oth er governments. It differs from Mon archy, iu this: ours locates all power, or sovereigdty, in the people. Mon archy, places it in the Monarch. The power of ours is exercised by represen tatives, and not themselves, but for the people. The power in Monarchy is exercised by the possessor for himself, and cannot be taken away, but by revolution. The fro? nioory - that majorities rule, but, this right is not arbitrary, it must be iu subordi nation to the Constitution. The very idea of a Constitution implies protec tion to the minority. It the right of the majority is arbitrary, then is a Constitution nugatory. As all Democrats are agreed in then opposition to Raeiicalist, I may inquire with propriety, what would you have in lieu of it V No doubt all are ready to respond, Democratic rule. But, De mocracy has so many political com plexions, prejudices, quasi Democrats, ! pseudo Democrats, conservative Detn ! ocrats, in us ranks, that wisdom ami j sound policy delimit l something defin- ite. Let us reason together. What is the great art of government? Como politician, statesman, lawyer, all, an swer me. What is the paramount qualification for a Governor, Legisla ture, Judge, Ac. ? Do you say brains,?; They Can be bought. I answer con- 1 science. Then the first question is ea sily answered. The great art of gov ernment consists in tlm art of b iug honest. That is the great desideratum, and what the 'exogenous of our situa tion demands. The present crisis in vokes the sagacity of the Statesman, and the indexible fidelity of the true patriot. To give an idea of what Democracy j demands, :tnd wluit Democracy is ca • pable of doing, I will simply relate ; what it has done in past years. Thomas Jefferson was the author, ! embodiment and champion of Democ : racy. During his administration, a ! Frenchman visited America, and call ied on the President After closely GREAT REDUCTION IN PIES!

Dec. lGth,~lm. scrutinizing his dress, manners, conver sation, diet and mode of business, he was amazed at the exceeding simplici ty ol the philosopher and Statesman. No pomp, no pageantry, no ostenta tious display. All was or dor, clock work, plebian simplicity. After return ing to Paris, the great Napoleon asked this question: “What kind of a iov ermnent have they in America?” The answer was, “They have a government you efiu neither see nor fed/' Here I might imitate Nopoleon’s example, and relire without eoiurnent. This is the spectacle Democracy once exhibited to a gazing world, and it felt irte from i ederal bayonets, can exhibit it again. Tv is is my beau id al of government, and any thing less is beneath my ambition. Thomas J fferson was the greatest benefactor America ever bad. With out his profound sagacity, indefatiga ble labors, fearless intrepidity, and per sistent efforts to gain certain ends, all of Washington's grand military achieve ments would have tumbled into abor t-011. Jeff rson was a model States man and reformer. lie was a radical Democrat, and stopped at no hulf-waj house as a matter of policy. He it was that handled the relicts of Monarchy and Feudalism without gloves or ceremony, until the last ver tige was swept from America. lie did not fuller because of majori ties against him, but persisted from year to year in whatever he deemed vital to American prosperity.
