THE RESPONSIBILITY FIXED.
Concrcss continues to linger over the
crest hone of contention, the appropriation
hills, with a probability of *n adjournment
during the latter part of the present month.
During tfi® tf \ry contentions that lisve oc
curred In the present stormy and rather ex
traordinary session, that spirit of section
al animosity which jeopardises the host in
terests of the people has had tine opportu
nity to vent itself. That certain party
loaders at the North strive in every possi
ble way to prevent the dying out of the
hates and passions resulting from the late
(druggie, is plainly and lamentably evident,
it is time for all such motives and feelings
to be buried so deep that the hand of rea
nrrcction cannot reach them. It is time
for all the errors, the sufferings and the
mistakes of the territde past to he forever
forgotten, and the entire people of this
great Commonwealth to be united together
in an unbroken chain of friendship and
gord will, as they are bound bv the same
autonomy, interest and destiny. And
while the spirit of sectional antagonism
•exhibits itself, we are glad to believe that
it comes not from the old soldiers of the
late war. and it comes not from the great
masses of the people. So far as the mass
es of the Northern people are concerned,
we believe they deprecate the ultraism
that has been recentv Rtinwn by the party
leaders in Congress, and they desire that
the terrible ordeals of the past bo swal
lowed up in the unbounded prosperity and
triumphs of the future. We are glad to
believe this state of feeling prevails among
tho great masses of those people who at
one time contended with 11s in nrms upon
deadly holds of battle. But these party
leaders, who never smelt the smoke ofhat
tle or felt the force of honorable ami pa
triotic impulses, arc willing to employ any
means to perpetuate party ascendency.
After the full results of tho war have been
reached, and after a long and cruel period
of oppression, these party leaders seek to
perpetuate their supremacy by recalling
from its grave the buried skeleton of war
passions which at one time arrayed our
people, bound together by the strongest
and most cordial ties, against each other in
a bloody and fratricidal struggle. Unscru
pulous to every appeal of patriotic princi
ple or constitutional obligation, these char
acters strive to tratnplo with disdain
under their feet the liberties of the people,
and. Lord Jetlries like, bo long as they ride
on horseback, care not over whose pros
trate forms they ride. After all the ef
forts and counter efforts, tricks, schemes,
vetoes, filibustering, backdowns. Ac., one
fact stands out prominently before the peo
ple, and that is. the Republican partv has
unalterably fixed upon it the responsibility
of usurping the power of using an army in
time of peace to overawe and intimidate by
•glittering hnyonoU the free voters of this
country at the ballot-box. No one greater
6tep towards military despotism could be
mado, and vve arc glad that the great issue
is tube passed upon bv the people. From
the great reservoir of liberty, the ballot
box. the voice of endorsement or condern
-dation is to come. True the voice of the
people was defeatoJ in 187(1. and by the
use of the army that voice may be stran
gled and thwarted again ; yet it should
speak in such thunder tones as to override
the snares and despotic efforts that would
lie in wait to defeat it. A full realization
on the part of nil the conservative, consti
tutional and liberty-loving masses of this
great country of the dangers that threaten
and the fatal ultimate results that may ac
crue from such a source, is imperatively
necessary to check the fearful tide. Not
only a full and proper realization of the
dangers that threaten, but an indignant up
rising through the peaceful instrumentality
of the ballot-box. to brand with the black
seal of condemnation every departure from
the true constitutional practices of our
prosperous Republic towards the most fa
tal and ill-starred despotism.
GEORGIA'S LAW-MAKERS.
To-day the General Assembly convenes
m extra session in pursuance of its ad
journment Inst December. The many
changes and legislative enactments, ren
dered necessary by the adoption of the
eonstitution of 1877. made the duties of
the present Legislature quite onerous,
During the session of thirty-eight days last
winter, the bftdy did not more than fairly
commence upon the heavy duties that lay
before it. During the session that com
mences to-day. a great many questions of
vital importance are to be considered and
acted upon. In addition to the vast amount
of legislation imperatively demanded to
adapt our State to the changes made hy
the new constitution and ordinary legisla-
tion with reference to our Code of Statute*,
outside questions of great importance
and novelty, are to be to be thoroughly in
vestigated and passed upon. For instance,
the Dog I.aw, the Moflet Punch, the work
ings of the Bureaus nnd the propriety of
their continuation. Ac. All these ques
tions will involve time, care nnd labor. The
Northeastern Railroad Bond question will
certainly demand the most careful consid
eration of the body, and will doubtless
provoke considerable discussion. A com
mittee having been appointed at the last
si siort, taken evidence and submitted a
majority and minority report, a question
will arise as to which report snail bo
adopted, or whether or not either shall he
adopted. The majority report is inconsis
tent with itself, and wo doubt whether the
full facts of the case demand the adoption
of the minority report. We certainly
think that the minority report will the
more favorably commend itself to flic Leg
islature. This kind of a verdict of. "not
guilty, but don't do so any more.” is not
such a verdict as an interested public will
approve, and is not exactly reason hie.
During the hot session before it. the law
makers w ill have plenty of work to do.
and it will likely require a somewhat pro- j
traded session to fully accomplish the task
that lies before them.
A .NORTHERN SOLDIER WHO FOUGHT.
We take the liberty of making a few ex
tracts from a private letter to the senior
editor of this paper front a Republican.
living in one of the extreme Northwestern
Mutes. who was a true soldier during the
w ar. and fought. .Ha did not hire a sub
stitute like the tire-eater Blaine. We can
assure him that the saute fraternal and no
ble sentiment dwells in the bosom of every
follower of the Southern Cross who fought
—just *< oar Northern friend did—for
what they thought was right. Would to
God fhat’the lighting soldiers in the fratri r
etdal struggle would rise in their might and
•hurl from high places these fire-eating non
combatant* who persist in '•arrying on a
war—to use an Irish bull--that has long
ago ended : ..
..* ♦ * The Si'X is received regularly
and read with interest, for I find it moder
ate in its tone, almost entirely ignores pol
itics-devoting its space to the interests of
the agricultural and other industries of the
county in which it is published; not liko
other papers North and South, striving to
stir up sectional strife. It is high time
such things were done away with, and that
we hegin to labor for the whole country—
for the elevation of our commercial, aeri
cultural and educational industries. Per
haps I am not as rabid a party man as
some ; but I believe 1 love my country too
well to let my party draw me into any feel
ing against any part or portion of our land
or people. Asa Republican. I of course
sympathise with Republican principles;
yet I cannot believe tliosc principles com
pel me to harbor ill feelings against a peo
ple who, though I believe were misguided,
fought bravely to maintain the rights they
believed in, and fur their homes. Feeling
this, 1 am indeed sorry that the leaders of
both parties have taken the attitude they
have. for. believing as I Ho. it will only
work injury to the industries of the people.
Again let me thank yon for the univer
sal kindness of yourself and family to me
while a poor soldier boy from the North
(and at that time only seventeen years old).
It was indeed a blessing, and brought to
mv mind my mother's and father's love.
There is one favor I should 1 ke to ask.
and that is if you can procure for mo a
couple of Confederate bonds and some
bills. I had some, but some “Yankee”
wanted them worse than I did. so appro
priated them. With the best wishes of
myself and family for you all,
I am truly your friend, .”

Rev. Geo. \V. Bryant (col.), who is trav

Made a speech on the " Gray, the Black
nud the Blue,” in Atlanta on the 20th of
June. The Institute is trying to raise
funds to establish a manual labor depart
ment to be known as the Lee Manual La
bor School. This is to be done as a testi
monial of the admiration and veneration
with which the colored people regard the
character nod fame of General Robert E.
Lee. He is meeting with good success,
and the white people are subscribing lib
erally. Wc give the following extract
from the Atlanta Constitution regarding his
speech :
A* an evidence of tho nature of the address wc
report some of the most striking utterance. In re
counting ranidlv tho event* of the war, ho spoke of
the causes tout led to tho freedom of his race an pro
nounced in the emancipation proclamation. “This
proclamation wMimllitarj noceauity. 1 Coma back
Into the Union and k< p your slave* ; remain out of
the Union and * © mill five them?’ But the hrave
southern chivalry would not thus negotiate. They
preferred lighting it out and go down they would, if
l;o down they must, nailing their flag to the mast
head and with all the honors of war And lut for
this brave lesistsnce upon the one hand and a mili
tary necessity upon the other hand, the negro
would perhaps, to day have been in slavery !"
lie then went on to sjeak of the clone of ihe atrag
H le and delivered this eulogy on Lee :
•• Suffice it to say that General Lee, the illustrious
soldier, with bin handful of gallant grays, battle scar
ted, without succor, without relief, without rein
forcements, pressed in on nil aides, hemmed in by
force* advnnc :ug iu all direction*, surrendered that
gallant band. Subsequently (hath came with silout
footstep* and plucked from th** bright galaxy of the
South this illustrious soldier, this noble martyr. If
he had hi rungppassio n, lie had learned to subdue
them and was moderate and mild. If he had weak
nesses, he concealed thrro, which is rare; and ex
cluded them tr im the government of his tempn and
conduct, which is still rarer. If he loved fame, he
never made improper compliances for what i* call
ed popularity. Oh. illustrious son ot the Southland,
may thy memory be perpetuated ! —peace be to thy
sshes
Making reference farther on hi* remarks to the de
plorable confusion of political strife iu which the
colored citiicn* were afterwards involved, he tired a
shot st the carpet-baggers after the following vigor
ous style:
“ Vos, thcKo paupers in intellect, thee fortes in
politics, these unnmigated liars and scoundrels drove
back our m< n of intelligence, held them in abeyance
until they had tilled their pockets w ith ill gotten
cuius betrayed the trust reposed in them, sowed the
seeds of dmaunsion. and. when the arms of insfice
nought to encircle them, they left for part" unknown

holy traffic of negro votes ’* (A pplnusc.) .
lii approaching tils appeal for nut, he apoke of the
help the colored people ask of the gray and the
blue, as follow a:
“ At xhe national conference of colored men con
vened some time since in Nashville, someone Intro
duceit u resolution touching the spelling of the word

Editors Sri* : In consequence of the
recent order from the P. U. Department,
curtailing route No. 15.113. your paper for
snbscribi-ra at this office and Concordia
must lie in the Elberton office one week
instead of reaching ns on the Hay of pub
lication. Our Augusta and Atlanta pa
pers, as well as other weeklies of the State
•which are printed on Tuesday evenings,
reach Elberton on Wednesday evening
where they must lie until the next Wednes
day morning, because our mail comes out
ion Wednesdays instead of Thursdays.
, Every individual interested in mail matter
carried on this route is anxious that tho
; mail should be supplied on Thursdays ;
but this is a matter in which you can do
us no particular service. There is. how
ever, a contemplated extension of this
route, which would serve a populous sec
tion of your county, which has been de
prived of reasonable mail facilities übout
fourteen years. During the latter half of
this peiiod the people in the vicinity of
Cedar Creek, who were formerly supplied
from Bin run's and Montevideo, have been
looking for some opening for them to get a
mail route to their section ol the county.
Now the first opportunity offers, and you
could probably favor the people who have
i long endured the hardship of beihg de
prived of mails, by calling their attention
to the importance of obtaining the exten
sion of this route about five miles. This
extension, and the change from Wednes
-1 days to Thursdays, would supply aconsid
erable section of Elbert and Hart counties,
j which had for many years, enjoyed four
mails a week with a mail once a week,
making the very best and only satisfactory
connection.
Hoping that you may embrace some op
portm i y to aid in accomplishing this much
needed public enterprise,

Letter from Cobb County.
Ros3well, Cobb County. Ga., \
June 27, 1879. J
Messrs. Editors : I have ju jt got
home from a trip through Oglethorpe, Mad
ison. Jackson. Gwinnett and Milton coun
lies, and will give you a short account of
tiie crop prospect in those counties. In
Oglethorpe the corn is very small, but the
cotton looks well considering the length of
time since they had a good rain. In Madi
son the crops have suffered very much from
the drouth. It has been some six weeks
sinco they had rain to wet the ground, and j
I saw but little improvement in crops until
after I past Jefferson, Jackson county.
West of there corn is the best they have
had for years, so the farmers told me, and
their cotton is very good. The crops
through Gwinnett and Milton look fine;
but farmers say they have had but little
rain this year. The wheat crop all along
the line is the best that has been made
since the war. and I suppose it is about
half threshed and in the garner; so the
people are safe for some bread. I saw but
five peaches on the road ; there will be a
very fair crop of apples. Cattle and hogs
are very poor oil account of there being
no grass for them. Oh. when will the peo
ple learn wisdom and plant more grass and
clover—until they do they will have poor
stock. Grass is the best paying crop that
the farmer can make ; then it is good sense
to raise it.
Our little town (Roswell) is improving
some. We have several new buildings
going up. But vve are liko Hartwell, need
a railroad, and vve hope to get it in a year
or two. We have five dry good stores,
two family groceries, two boot and shoe
shops, one cotton and one wool factory,
good schools, good churches and an indus
trious, sober live people—so vve are bound
to have a railroad. OLD Man.

The falling of the shell from the battery
of “ Old Fogy ” into the camp of the
mighty stock law men created great confu
so i and dismay. They therefore rallied
their forces and called for their mighty
men. even the ” Bony Lawyer” and great
•• Stock Law.” and sent them forth to bat
tle brilliantly arrayed with helmet and
shield, accompanied with trumpets playing
the same old tune of what Dick. Tom and
Harry had done, with the addition of Judge
MeCnrry’s hog tail added hy way of a
••slight variatiftn.” which was no doubt
considered a great improvement. Now
lest it bo written in the chronicles that
"Old Fogy ” was slain in the mighty and
bloody conflict as was the Philistines of
old by the "jaw of an ass.” he comes forth
and proclaims to the world and the rest of
mankind that there is not the sign of blood
or the smell of powder on him. but ho is
fully able to wield the pen of truth, not
\ withstanding •• Stock Law's ” polite insin
uation to the contrary. As Mr. " Slock
Law ” has not answered any of " Old
i Fogy's ” arguments nor advanced any of
his own. hut a simple rehersal of tho old
j story of what Dick, Tom and Harry had
done, he deems it unnecessary to say any
thing further than to advise " Stock Law ”
to remain easy until July, 1881, when as
it is written. "There may be anew song
put into his mouth, even praises to * old
j brindle.” Old Fogy.
P. S.—l wish to call “Stock Law’s”
particular attention to the following Scrip

and profit thereby : Matt. 23d chap., 23d

Tbs True Wy to Invlgorntc.
The true way to invigorate a feeble sys
tem is to infuse actively into the operations
of the stomach, that wondrous alembic in
which the food is transmuted into the con
stituents of blood, the chief element of
our vitality. Hostetter's Stomach Bitters,
because it accomplishes this end. is greatly
to be preferred to many so called tonics,
useful indeed as appetizers, but inopera
tive as aids to digestion and assimilation.
This sterling cordial, while it invigorates
the atomnen, healthfully stimulates the
liver, bowels, and kidneys, ensuring the
escape through the regnlnr channels of
etiete and useless matter thrown off bv the
system, which is thus purified as well as
invigorated by it. Its tonic influence is
soon made manifest by an increase of vital
energy and a more active and regular dis
charge of every physical function, ami it
has the further effect of rendering the sys
tem unassailable by malarial epidemics.
