Cartersrillo, Thursday Morning, Dec. O t 1883.
THE art A KERSBIF.
Samuel J. Randall is defeated for the
office of speaker of the House of Repre
sentatives of the 48th Congress. He is
defeated by the insane free-traders of the
democratic party, defeated by southern
tnadinen for whom he has done more
than any living or dead statesman. Ran
dall, the wise patriot who for days stood
almost alone in the House of Represent
atives resisting the infamous force-bill,
and who for twenty years has been a
rock wall in the American Congress
shielding and protecting these southern
states from every dart of the enemy; Ran
dall, the economist, who lias done more to
save the tax-payers of this government
from wild and extravagant waste of the
public funds than any man on the con
tinent of any political party; Randall,
the incorruptible and chivalrous legisla
tor, one blast from hig bugle tongue was
worth more to the country, its industri
ries, its wealth and its liberties than ten
thousand of the “tinkling cymbals” by
whom he lias been overthrown.
It is said the eagle as he lies pierced
and dying with the arrow in his side is
only grieved because his own feather
winged the fatal shaft. Sam Randall as
he lies politically prostrate to-day must
suffer most acutely, as he remembers that
southern men for whose happiness and
prosperity he has expended the strength
of his manhood and upon whose friend
ship he had staked the aspirations of his
public life, winged and gave fatal effect
to the dart which pierced Ills
Ingrates! The very men whom he push
el forward In spite of their limited capa
city “now turn and rend him.”
But all this is “dust in the balance”
compared to the policy to which his de
feat commits the democratic party.
Randall’s defeat is the triumph of the
nihilist of the democratic party, of the
dostructionist of that party. His defeat
writes upon the banner of that party
these burning and startling sentences,
‘•livery furnace and rolling mill in the
south must stop.” “Every cotton facto
ry in Georgia must be crippled and des
troyed.” “Every machine shop and
manufactory must be starved out.”
“Every laborer must be made a pauper.”
“All home markets must be blotted from
existence.” “All farming lands must
be depreciated one hundred per cent in
value.” “Financial panics must sweep
like whirlwinds over the land.” “The
balance of trade now favorable must be
turned against us.” “The aristocrats
and crowned heads of Europe must fix the
price of every article consumed in the
United States.” “They must also fix the
price of every bale of cotton, every bush
el of corn and wheat, and every pound of
pork and beef produced in the United
States.” These we repeat are the start
ling sentences the democracy have prac
tically Inscribed upon their banner. They
fall upon the business world like the signal
gun out upon the dark and stormy ocean,
they tell of wrecks of disasters, of deaths,
With these principles they go before the
country and ask a ratification of the same
in 1884. But, thank God, they will not
succeed. New York with its teeming
millions of men and money, Pennsylva
nia and Ohio, all New England and all
the prosperous north where labor is hon
ored and rewarded, stands like a bull
wark between the business prosperity of
the country and the bourbon madmen of
the south, the nihilist of the democratic
party.
SPEAKER CARLISLE AS A SOUIIBRS
MA.V.
Some of our people are tossing up
their hats for the new speaker, claiming
him as a southern man. lie may have
been born in Kentucky, but he was no
friend to the late Confederacy. He was
perhaps less of a friend than the demo
crats of Ohio, New York and Pennsyl
vania. Living where he did, he was an
enemy to the Confederacy of the type
that was the most odious to true seces
sionists. “How do you know?” says
one. Well, we are generally careful to
be fortified with the facts, and here they
ar. When he was sworn in as speaker
he took the iron-clad oath, which reads
thus:
“I do solemnly swear that I have never borne
arms against the United States. I have
voluntarily given no aid, countenance, counsel
or encouragement to persons eugaged in hostili
ty thereto, etc.”
Here’s your southern man, so-called!
He gave no aid to your poor, foot-sore
s ddiers! He countenanced no man who
fought in tiie rebel army! He gave no
kind word or counsel to the Kentuckians
who fought with you and died beside you!
He was your enemy ! Now, don’t palaver
ami say he did not light against you!
No, he may or may not have been in the
fcileial army, but his sympathies were all
opposed to you, and he vriil not bear in
spection as a southern man.

The obtuseness of some people North

The Griffin Sun Is somewhat facetious
in its comments upon our editorial of
last week touching Mahone and Bour
bonism Mahonism was not endorsed or
commended in that article. It was dis
tinctly stated we had not sympathiz
ed with him or his principles. But we
condemn in unmeasured language the
murders, the violence and the outrages
by which he had been defeated. We did
condemn the hatred and vituperation of
the democratic leaders in Virginia which
gave good cause to northern republicans
to wage a sectional war against us.
Does the Sun approve of these things?
If so we must emphasize our prayer and
include in it men nearer home than Vir

FORTY-EIGHTH CONGRESS.
The Election of Mr. Carlisle as Speaker.
Washington, December 3.—At twelve
o’clock sharp the senate wag called to
order by the president pro tempore,
Senator Edmunds, of Vermont, and
prayer was offered by Rev. J. J. Bullock,
chaplain. The galleries were well tilled
with spectators and many of the desks of
the senators were decorated with dowers.
The president laid before the senate the
credentials of re-election of James B.
Beck, of Kentucky, to succeed himself;
also the credentials of Thomas W. Pal
mer, ol Michigan, to succeed Senator
Ferry; also the credentials of C. F. Pike,
of New Ilarnpshiere, to succeed Senator
Rollins. The oath was then administer
ed to Senators Beck, Bowen, Cullom,
Dolph and Frye, whose credentials were
submitted last session. Senator Anthony
was not present.
The regular ? ron-clad oath was taken
by Senators Beck, of Kentucky; Bowen,
of Colorado; Cullom, of Illinois; Dolph,
of Oregon; Frye, of Maine; Hoar, of
Massachusetts; McPherson, of New Jer
sey; Manderson, of Nebraska; Palmer,
of Michigan; Pike, of New Hampshire;
Plumb, of Kansas; Sabine, ot Minnesota;
Saulsbury, of Delaware, and Wilson, of
lowa, the remainder taking the modified
oath.
The new senators are Pike, of New
Hampshire; Kenua, of West Virginia;
Gibson, of Louisiana; Colquitt, of Geor
gia; Wilson, of Iowa; Riddleberger, of
Virginia; Sabin, of Minnesota; Palmer,
of Michigan; Cullom, of Illinois; Man
derson, of Nebraska: Dolph, of Oregon;
Bowen, of Colorado.
The customary resolutions notifying
the house of representaves and the presi
dent that the senate was ready for busi
ness, were agreed to, and a resolution
was adopted that 12 o’clock be the hour
of meeting till further notice. On mo
tion of Senator Garland, of Arkansas, the
senate then, at 12;30, took a reeess of
one hour.
On the reassembling of the senate at
1:30 p. m., Senator Ingalls, of Kansas,
moved that in order to afford an oppor
tunity for receiving the notification of
the organization ot the house of repre
sentatives, and if possible to receive the
president's message this afternoon, the
recess be extended to 3 p. m., which mo
tion was agreed to.
At 3 p. in. the senate was again called
to order, and there being no prospect ot
the house organization being completed
in time to do business this afternoon, on
motion of Senator Ingalls, the senate ad
journed till to-morrow.
IN THE HOUSE.
Washington, December 3. —Long be
fore the hour of noon the galleries of the
house of representatives were filled with
spectators to witness the opening scenes
of the 48th congress. The new uphol
stering of the desks of the members, the
bright colors of carpeting of the chamber
and the baskets of flower* which were
distributed here and there throughout
the hall, served to enliven the scene,
white on the floor, political feelings being
laid aside for the time, friendly greetings
and merry conversation were the order
of the day. Now and then a prediction
might bo heard as to the result ot the battle
in 1884, aud a few speculations were in
dulged in as to the probable chairman
ships of the more important committees
of the house, but aside from this, the
conversation was of a social and non
political character. As the floor was be
ing cleared of strangers, some little ex
citement was occasioned by the obstinate
refusal of “Colonel” Pinchover, a noted
character In Washington, to vacate the
seat in which he had ensconced himself.
Mr. Blackburn, of Kentucky, however
succeeded in overcoming his objections
and leading him from the chamber.
At precisely 12 o’clock the clerk, Mr.
McPherson, took the stand at the clerk’s
desk, rapped the house to order and pro
ceeded to call the roll of representatives
elect. The state of Mississippi having
been reached, the clerk said he wished to
make a statement as to his failure to put
upon the roll the name of any represent-
ative elect from the second district.
ELECTION OK SPEAKER.
Mr. Morrison, of Illinois; Mr. Tucker,
of Virginia; Mr. Reed, of Maine; Mr.
Calkins, of Indiana, were appointed as
tellers and the clerk proceeded to call the
roll for speaker. The result was announ
ced as follows • For Carlisle, 191; for
Keifer, 112; for Robinson, 2; James,
New York; Lyman, Massachusetts; for
J. S. Wise, Virginia, 1; York, of North
Carolina; for J. W. Wadsworth, New
York, 1; Ochiltree, Texas; for Edward
Lacy, Michigan 1; White, Kentucky.
The clerk thereupon declared Mr. Car
lisle elected, and Mr. Randall, of Penn
sylvania, and Mr. Keifer, Ohio, escorted
that gentleman to the chair.
Kentucky is not in much danger of
suffering from a whisky famine. In the
ten months ended October 1, there were
1,313,440 barrels put in bond in that state
and only 190,000 barrels were drawn out
in the last year. If the amount on hand
should be divided per capita it would
give each man, woman and child iu
Kentucky about 30 gallons. Sold at ten
cents a drink it would bring over $300,-
000,000 and would establish foi Kentucky
the finest public school system in the
world.
O'DONNELL’S FATE*
The Verdict Generally Approved by *he
Preaa—The Demeanor of the Prinoner.
London, December 3. —On leaving the
dock Saturday night, O’Donnell, guard
ed by a strong escort, walked with a firm
and unhesitating step to the cell for con
demned prisoners. He was intensely ex
cited, but maintained an air of defiance,
and continued to anatematize England
and the English people and laws. On
reaching the cell, O’Donnell, by a strong
effort, regained his habitual composure.
The Catholic chaptain of the prison,
Father Fleming, soon visited the prisoner,
and remained closeted with him a long
time. The visit had a soothing effect on
the prisoner. Alter a refreshing night’s
sleep, O’Donnell ate a hearty breakfast
and conversed freely with the wardens
during Sunday. lie expressed no sur
prise at the verdict, although he confess
ed tfiat the jury’s hesitation inspired him
with the hope that he might escape the
extreme penalty of the law. He highly
praised Mr. Russell’s able defense, lie
still maintains that he is innocent of
murder. All day Sunday O’Donnell
displayed extreme indifference, and even
bore a jaunty air. He does not seem to
despair of a respite. He says his friends
outside will move heaven and earth to
obtain his release. Father Fleming re
visited the prisoner on Sunday and re
mained witli him a long time. lie says
O’Donnell is in good spirit, and is pre
pared for the worst. A brother of O’Don
nell will vislt’him shortly. Despite rumor
to the contrary, the prisoner will remain
at Newgate, where he will be banged,
probably on December 17th. Ample
precautions have been taken to prevent a
rescue. Two wardens remain with
O’Donnell night and day and are
answerable for the safe keeping of his
person.
O’Donnell is to be hung on Monday,
the 17th.
Mrs. Carey, widow of James Carey,
who was killed by O’Donnell, expresses
anxiety to return to Dublin. The gov
ernment will probably provide for her.
All of the morning papers indorsed
the verdict in the case of O’Donnell.
The Times says it was impossible for the
jury to arrive at any other conclusion.
The evidence for the crown was clear
and abundant. Carey was hated and
was murdered because he was an inform
er, but the fact that Carey aided the law
in bringing other murderers to justice
rendered his claim to protection by the
government paramount. Therefore,
Carey’s murder was a crime which out
raged justice in no common degree, and
which the law was bound to avenge.
The Telegraph says O’Donnell’s painful
exhibition of violence at the end of the
trial dissipated any doubts, if any existed,
concerning the motives underlying his
savage act. The Standard says there can
scarcely be any doubt raised in Ireland
concerning the justice of O’Donnell’s
sentence.
The Observer, referring to the trial and
condemnation of O’Donnell, the slayer
of Janies Carey, says no exception can
be taken to the mode of trial, the ability
of the defense on the finding of the jury.
No other result could have been expected.
Seldom has a more righteous sentence
been passed.

DEATH OF MR. J. H. WILLINGHAM.
Judge J. M. Harlan received a dis
patch from Terrell, Texas, Monday,
announcing the death of his brother-in
law, Mr. J. 11. Willingham, but gave
no particulars. A letter was received
from the family only a few days ago,
stating that they were all well, and from
this it Is thought that his death was
rather sudden. Mr. Willingham was
raised in this county, where his father
and mother now live. He went to
Texas last January and located near
Terrell, engaging in agriculture. His
sad demise leaves a wife and five chil
dren in Texas, and a Host of relatives
and friends in this county to mourn his
loss. He was universally popu
lar, and many were the hearts
made sad by the perusal of these
few lines. The Times extends sympathy
to the bereaved family in their far away
home and to the aged father and mother,
who can never again behold in life
that which death has claimed as its own.
—Calhoun Times, Nov. 29th.
The deceased was a son of Mr. Joseph
Willingham, formerly of this county, but
now of Gordon. Mr. Joseph Willing
ham is an own cousin to the editor of
The Free Press.
Mhmphis, Dec. I.—At Corinth, Miss.,
a daring attempt was made at 4 o’clock
this morning to rob A. McWilliams, a
Southern Express agent. He had just
placed in the safe a large amount of
money received a few minutes previous
ly from an Eastern bound train, when
suddenly masked men entered the room
with drawn pistols and demanded the
safe key. Without waiting for a reply
he fired on McWilliams, the ball striking
four inches below the right nipple. Mc-
Williams threw a lighted lamp at the
robber, drew his pistol end fired three
shots, but with what effect is not known,
as the man disappeared and has not been
seen since. It is thought that two per
sons were engaged in the contemplated
robbery, as a negro saw two men running
away from the express oftiee after the
shooting. Capt. Fisher has offered a re
ward of SSOO for arrest of the rob bers.
Mr. McWilliams’ wound is fatal. He is
28 years old and h is a wife and one child.
Polishing the Wrong End.
Many men daily polish their hair, ex
cept to harrow it casually with brush
and comb, or submit it to the paralyzing
attentions of the average barber. What
happens? Why, this: From neglect,
mental axiety, or any of a score of causes,
the hair turns prematurely gray and be
gins to fall out. Parker’s Hair Balsam
will at once stop the latter process and
restore the original color. An elegant

A Glowing Tribute to a Noble ftnd Pure
Woman.
The following we take from the Solid
South, published at Convers, Rockdale,
county, Ga. It is a just tribute, and will
be perused by our readers and our peo
ple generally w ith great pleasure and de
light :
In our last article we spoke of the boy
hood home ot our governor. About one
mile anu a half still farther north, in De-
Kalb countj r , is equally historic ground.
W r e refer to the place now ow ned by Mr.
Robt. Clark, formerly owned by Mr.
Chas. Lattimer. The person that gives
this place distinction is a lady, the wife
of Dr. W. H. Felton, of Bartow' county.
Her maiden name was Miss Rebecca Lat
tiraer. In referring to tills lad /we speak
of one of the noblest, purest, and most
talented females our country has ever
produced. Few women, in our state,
ever become more active in politics than
she has been for the last ten years. Be
it said, also, to her honor, that in nothing
she has ever said or written, is there one
thing to be found that will detract a par
ticle from her true womanly character,
but true to a true woman’s nature, it has
been in defense and support of her hus
band. It is almost universally conceded,
that she is not only the best politically
informed woman in Georgia, but in the
south. Some of the leading Washington
papers asserted that she possesses the
best knowledge of the nature and opera
tion of our government of any lady in
America. During the six year’s service
of her husband in Congress, she gained a
place in the estimation of Washington
society, for intelligence, that no other
w r omau from the south has gained since
the war. Her fame is not only local, but
national. We feel proud to think, that
Mr3. Felton is a demonstration of the
fact, that the women of old Georgia, for
intellect and force of character, are not
one w'hit behind those of any other state
in the Union or out of it.

A DOCTOR’S TROUBLES.
Mother—" You did wrong in wearing that thin
dress, this cold damp night.”
Daughter— “l did, and am now paying the
penalty. Sarah Goss suffered in tha same way;
please get that which relieved her.”
Mother —“Nonsense! I’ll do so such thing,
but will send for our Doctor.”
Daughter —“ Our Doctor keeps one In bed a
long time and pours down a vast quantity of medi
cine, besides making daily changes.”
Mother— “ Doctor, is she dangerous and what
is her affliction?”
Doctor— 11 Yes. madam, she Is dangerously ill.
The ventricular and auricular forces are not in equi
librium, there is an increased centripetal action
about the cerebrum and medulla oblongata, the
portal circulation vascillates, suspended Nature
seems hesitating, and I —”
Mother—“ Stop, for heaven’s sake stop and go
to work at once.”
Doctor— l4l will do all I can.”
Mother, after two weeks have expired—
“ Daughter, our Doctor shall be discarded at once.
Two weeks and no relief. I will procure that which
you desired at first.”
Daughter, in alow tone —“I am glad, and think
it the only thing that will restore me to health.”
Sr
Mother—" Get out of my house, you old hum*
bug! ”
Daughter—" Well, mother, you eee how rap
idlv I have improved since discharging * our Doctor ’
and I commenced the use of that which I so much
needed. The effect has been most wonderful. The

the other imparted strength, came to the help ol
Nature and made me feel new."
