There appears to lie a movement on o small *cale, inaugurated by two or three member* of the Hftata press, looking to the exposition and suppression of humbugs. It ii certainly a stupendous undertaking, the (access of which is just now problematical. Humbugs are numerous. There art runout kinds—rery many kinds. They are gotten op to order, withont regard to expense. Heme aie comniOD snares, sad don't catch anybody, while others big Irombug*. Boch as these are to bedretded. They defy opposition, and kick obstacles out pf the way with the greatest of ease. Tna Wbeki.t is opposed to humbugs, and would not knowingly gire them the least encouragement, even in the shapo of paid advertisements ; but we have not the time nor the facilities for ascertaining how adver tisers from a distance stand, as regards re spectability, and tLerefors cannot bo respon sible for such advertisement* as may appear iu these columns from time to time. Bad.— Here is an item from the Greens boro Herald: Some of onr citizens were itartled on Saturday night by the brilliant gyration* of a meteor, which terminated its gkvrncketing by shelling mother earth. Query—l)o celestial bodk's carry concealed weapons ? Now, if some ore would send this item to Frye, or Garfield, or Chandler, wbat an ex cuse it would give them to loose their vials of vitriol against (be South, swearing the aforesaid “brilliant gyrations of a meteor" was in reality a bombardment of some Fed eral out-poet by a squad of "Confederate Brigadiers.” We warn the editor of the New Tork Ciritttan Advocate. “Hrr him Again !"—"Our Ben’’ ia a tower •f strength, but sometimes be catches a side winder unexpectedly, as this for instance, from the Saodersville Courier: ‘Onr Ben” rather got away with the Sen ator from Maine, oo the Potter and Teller Committee question. O. well, this will be nil right the i ext time Beo dines and smiles with Jim. As death is swallowed up in victory, so ate political animosities sod brick labor. Harsh and Untrue. It i* more in sorrow than in anger that wt publish the fallowing extracts, taken from a receat number of the N«w York Christian Advocate: 18G1—18791—Thi* week the Legislative department of the United State* falls into the hund* of the men who ruled fn 1861. They have the *nme spirit that actuated them when they went out. The field was the weak place in '6l ; therefore, they stioek with the swerd The treasury is the weak place now ; therefore, we may expect the blow there. Having lived to hear eulogies prnnonneed in the United States Senate on Jell Davis, the author of the starvation policy of Ao der«onvil!e, and the great repudiater of earlier days, we are prepared to see him poshed for any post. We feel that the Democrats of the North will be helpless now a* they were before. Every intelligent observer of current event* knows full well that a large majority ef the Southern people accepted the re sults of the war a* a finality. The principle for which they contended during that san guinary struggle still lives; but the South ern seet ion wifi no more endeavor to rouse it to life end activity. Here, however, i* one who, though he knows better, it fright cued into writing what he may well be ashamed of—if he can possibly be suscepti ble of such a feeling. The Advocate professes to te*eh the doc trine—and a glorious one it is—sf ‘'Peace on earth, good will to man." This, we say, i* its avowed mission, and jet. in this one instance at lea»t, it belches forth its ha’c in a manner as thoroughly unchristian as could well be imagined, and makes it* statements all the more malignant by garnishing them with falsehood* of the darkest character. Again, the editor says 'he has lived to h»ar eulogies prononneed on Jeff Davi*.’’ Lnaar’a and Hill’s speeches wera a sufficient reply to this; and this kind-hearted (?) Christian editor, if he possesse* the sensibili ties of an ordinary mortal, must feel rebuked. Slip, blindfy pursuing thu wrong, be exhume* from the tombs of the past falsehood* long since exploded, and beholds Andrrsoirvillc in all it# traditional horror He writes as if bfe himself Was a participant in that “starvation policy” to which h* so feelingly allude*, trembling the while with a nameless terror. But we beg to offer him, as a sedative, the assurance that Mr Davis has no desire to again enter public life. He prefers to re main in retirement. His health is feeble, and aside from a patriotic desire to see the rainbow of peace encircle with ita concentric ray* onr political arch, he has no other am bition. lie boils over ugain in alluding to certain events which he seem* to be mere familiar with than anybody else : The spirit of 1881, revived in 1879. must be judged by its history. The poisoning of Harrison and 'Parlor, and the attempted poisoning of Buchanan, amt the shooting of l.intoln, the killing nl every President who was aaiislrd by a Vice- President who could serve the South better, mikes the election of a temporary President of the Senate sugges tive The spirit that murders thousands of citizens for the control of the South, can baldly be expected to hesitate nt killing two more inen for the control ol the nation. Billions of money with which to pay for the slaves m ke sufficient motive lor anything. Hayes and Wheeler will do well to insure their lives soon. Surely, the editor of Ike Advocate was la bordug under a inert hideous nightmare when be penned this piragrnph. It is certainly the very spirit of diabolism running rial with fancy to imagine for a moment that these startling declarations have the least foundation in fact. Taylor and Harrison died from natural enures, and none but those purblind to truth and intent on propngatiug falsehood can make such a charge. But we desist, and in dismissing the sub ject candor compel* 09 to say that a curb is placed upon our feelings in its consideration. To answer a fool according to his folly is too huge an undertaking for na just now, and hence we lay our pcucil down and close the matter. Good. In contradistinction fo the conr*e pursued by some persons, we priot the following It seem 9 that after all there is an atom of good feeling in the bosom* of thase who wore the blue, still living, ai d this invitation to our beloved Governor is proof of it. He will bear bimsell right nobly among the people whom he shall visit, and deepen the respect mutually engendered : Governor Colquitt has been selected to address the sixth annual encampment amt reunion ol the blue and cray, which will occur next August at Cambridge, Ohio. It will be a reunion of the soldiers and sailors of the nation, and the attendance will be large. The fact that a Southern Governor has been chosen to make the address shows that the association is just what it professes to be. It ia really a conciliatory movement. There will be a large attendance, both from the ranks of tbe blue and 'be gray. Gov ernor Colquitt has also received invitations to address important public gatherings in Indiana and lowa next summer The Gov ernor does not yet know whether his official duties will allow Lint to accept these invita tions. Boat Rack.—The annual race between tbe Cambridge and Oxford boating crew* took place oo tbe Thames river, London, last Saturday. Cambridge won. Th ais a contest in wbieb all England feels an inter est, being usually witnessed by many thou sands of spectators There is no mor.:y at *fVorget Yt!* > ' T ' t b e kouor of victory. ATTtcNDrvo Church. According to the Cb»rew (9. C) Gazette, there i»on the stat ute book of South Carolina a law imposing a fine of one dollar for every omission to at tend church on Sunday. A curious law, truly, and yet if rigidly enforced could be made to go far towards liquidating the pub lic debt af the State. If sach a statute ex isted in Georgia it could be made service able in wiping oui sundry and diver* indebt edness of our towns, cities, end even the State itself. But the thing won’t work. NkvrrJ —The Crawfordville Democrat names Parsou Felton as a proper person to be nominated for Governor. Hnrely, “Rome has not so entirely lost the breed of noble blood as to be thrown upon this resource.” Rkcttonal, —The late discussions in the House have been of a strong sectional char acter—pretty heavily spiced with persona! feeling. The Southern members have nrm nged to hold their own so far. Gkn Grant.—This distinguished individ nal is on a visit to Siam If he should take a notion to become Emperor of that country there is no telling what would be the result FROM OUR CORRESPONDENTS. Our Lovi joy Letter. Mr. Editor: —l h»ve been a cr.nptnnt subscriber to your valuable and spicy Httle paper since its firsi appearance, and having ne'er seen a communication from our neigh borhood, will proceed to give you a few dots at once, hoping they may be appreciated by a few at least. W#ll, to begin : the farmers of this sec tion sre a wide-awake, thorough-going, in dustrious set of aaen, and esnnot be excelled by any community for vim and energy. Several of our farmers make their farms self-sustaining, but a great many depend ton much on buying from the West, fat the Fall of the year, after counting the ca#t of making a crop of cotton, they all say : “I intend to plant more corn nett year but when Spring comps they are generally found ready to plant nearly all tbeir land in cotton, and only a faw acres in wheat, and a few acres of worn-out land in oats, and not half enough corn to keep man and beast alive from January until December. I have no cry to m»ke against the use of fertiliz-r*. as it is absolutely necessary to manure, judiciously, everything we plant, especially our poor uplands in this part of the country. A great many ore opposed to the nte of gnino whose lands without ii would not average a quarter of a bale of cotton per acre. Now, Mr. Editor, let me say that if the farmers of Georgia and the South generally would adept the plan of planting one-third of their tend able land in corn, one-third in wheat and oats, and one third in cotton, well fertilized, we would soon see a marked change in the condition of onr country. Tell your Stockbiidge correspondent he tnay take down his prophetic Spring sign now, as we in tit sne ghborhooTl have hail all our corn killed down even with the ground. Wheat looks vry promising—in deed. more promising than usual at this sea son of the year—and if no di-aster befalls we shall be all right by the first of June, when we will bid a long farewell to ash-cake j and corn dodgers. Well, Mr. Klitor, you *ny it “would do • person good to the bottom of his soul to see Mr. K.' Lovvorn smile while waiting nn a lady customer.” Well. I know he is good on an old-fushloued soul stirring smile, but it would make you feel good to the ends of your big toes to a e Mr. Clinton grin when he observes a good paying customer enter bis and Charlie’s stoie. Messrs. Clinton & Michain aio doing a fine business at Lovejoy. and there is still room for several more good merchants. lly the way, that was an enjoyable aflair at the reaidenee of Judge Dorsey last Wednesday night, in which the yoang pao ple engaged until the “wee swa’ hours” in “tripping the light fantastic toe ” Indeed, all who were so fortunate a? to be present, and partook of the bountiful supper set by Mrs Dorsey, will not soon forget it. OB KRVEJt. April Ith. 1879. Our Stockbridge Letter. Mr. Editor April came to us rather damp and cool. There was ice in our water bucket thi* morning I dou’t think fruit is malcriaily injured. Corn has beeo killed to the grojpd. Mrs. Sidonia Calhoun has returned home after an absence of five weeks among her relatives and friends in Atlanta and Deca tur. She enjoyed her visit exceedingly John Burks was at church last Sunday with his bride. He is enjoying his honey moon to the full. S. J. Lee, on last evening, made Uncle Charlie Fischer a present of a Gut German Bible. Fox Aakew has had tbe title of “papa” conferred apoo him. It is a boy. J. T. Bond has been made a “grandpa” twice this year. He has made himself a pair of Gue boots to wear when be goes to see his grand-babies. G. C. Morris had bis house burnt last Sunday. Caught from tbe stove. T. A. Waid has the Goest wheat in this < rcc'iou ; but this ct\d weather is very severe j oe wheat, oats and cor*. However, the proverb is— “ When April blows her hern, < It is good for both man and corn." I sec several worthies spoken of in con nection with the go bet natorial rhair, bnt no one has snggrs'ed the right name yet. Joe. L Hopkins i« the man >n administer justice to the people of Geotgia. ne has been tried on the henrh ns Judge, snd while Ihrre ad mintf'ered justice without favor or affection. He knew no man outside of the law. He never allowed any of ftis time to political speakers, as I hare seen some Jndges do during court hours. Auriuola. Aprd ~)th, 1879. Our Sunny Side Letter. Mr. Editor :—The time has passed when I promlstd to write, yet I hope the old adage will answer for an excuse—“ Never too late to do good ” So here goes: We are-all pretty blue down this way just now The damage ta frttif by the late cold spell is regarded as a strious calamity by many Corn has been badlv injured also —so much so that some of my nvighhori are plowing up and planting over again ; yet it doesn't seem to set them hck much. The ’ are going ahead with their u=ual vim and energy Cotton planting is the order of th* day now, and ihe ground was never in better condition Wheat lonks finely Oats seem to bp do : ng well, too—that is. Spring oats! Fall oats were pretty well killed out by the hard freezes last winter. The guano trade is dull, and has been for some time. 1 don’t think there will be so much used this year as usual. Cur fat mers have baoglit sparingly, making up for it by using home made fertilizers. Several brands are represented here by diffeient par ties. The Liebig is represented by Messrs Ransom it Shtrey ; the Pacific and Acid Phosphates and Cuiro by Mr. J. I Mickle berry; Wh'iunV, Mr. W D. Villard; Ober’s, Baldwin’s and Fmpire by Mr. George fechtefer, and Zell’s by Mr. W. B. Griffin. Schsefer has sold about 70 tons; Mickle berry, 48 tons ; V illard. 30 tons ; Ransom & Co., 10 tons—in all, about 158 tons. Mr. Griffin’s arrived too late for much to be sold. Mr. George Schaefer, I understand, in tends to put np a brick warehouse at this place during the coming summer. If so. he will get a eood share of the cotton front this part of the country. I learn that Mr K. G. Harris, of your town, has purchased the lot occupied until recently by the steam gin nt this place, to gether with such machinery as was saved from the fire, and will erect therpon a good, substantial house for the pnrpose of tun ning a steam gin next Fall. We wish him success. Major Ramsey continues the mere ut tile business though he spares enough time from his business to look over bis |«rm occasionally. He finished planting c tton this week, ne made lust year 650 pounds of lint cotton to the acre, on his entire crop, and expects to make thi« year two bales to Ihe acre. Brat this if You can. We have a fine literary school at this place now Prof. J. O. A Miller is teneher, and be seems to take real delight in teach ing the ‘ young idea how to shoot.” We also have a fine Sabbath-school. AII classes have co-aperated, and it makes the school interesting. T : >e Guttral Railroad has erected the mo=t complete water works at Sunny Side that we ever saw. People in this vicinity have been enjoy ing roasting ears for some time. Major Ramsey thinks it a great luxury to have toasting ears at this season of the year The chair factory is a perfect success with a good demand for all that can be made We have several nobby turnouts in this neighborhood. I believe Willis Kersey has about the handsomest though, and I should jadge from the way he circulates in the community that something will come of it after awhile. Well. 1 goess I have said enough to weary yonr patience, so will stop for the prevent Will write again. Y. Z. April 9th, 1879. Our Butts County Letter. Mr. Editor: —As your spicy journal has many readers in this roomy, and thinking perhaps a letter might not be wholly unin teresting, 1 have ventured to send you tbe following • The fact that erergy and pluck will sue ceed is fully exemplified in the growth ard popularity of your growing little city. Scarcely five years ago it was entirely un known. even tn this, an adjoining county, to say nothing of others more remote, and to day she is the centre of trade for her own (Henry,) as well as Butts, and one or two others, which she bus won by a fair and honest effort. To yonr merchants and busi ness men we, the people of Butts, feel duly thankful for breaking the monopolies and rings that have been grinding os for tbe lust quarter of a eentury. “Old Probfe” certainly has been oo a fear ful “bender” for the last several days, judg ing by the weather that he has been dealing to os. First a young tornado, that entireb demolished our fencing and sundry old craz and rickety barns and out ■bouses. Noi satisfied with this, he blows a cutting bla-A (tom tbe northwest for foor and twenty boars, which brings with it ice, that has played sao havoc with garden “truck,” in tbe full sense ot the leim—early beans. Irish potatoes, etc , being litetally killed, while tbe corn crop is injnred to an alarm ng extent. Numbers ol my neighbors to-day (Sunday) expreacd a determination to plow op atd replant, while Others hold the id a that it will come on' and be as thrifty us if it were not touched. Your correspondent bping a novice at the business. >s woefully beside himself as to what action to take in the matter. He, however, feela that if he had the aforesaid “Old Probs” near by, a “pummeling” would be the 6rst order of the day Seriously, I am tearful that it wi’l be a scrioo"drawback to the corn crop, and (rent which it will never folly recover. One of your correspondents, I see, he* proposed the name of ft >n John I Hall f'-r gubernatorial honors. Thi* I assure y- o meets with the approbation of every hone-t and law- abiding citizen of this county, who have known him longeat and best. While we have rot a word to say ag -inst th“ ud ministration of the present incumbent we believe that with the stern -ease of duty, the inflexible will, the clear jucLment, and turn conviction of right which has cvpt charac teriz'd the course nfthis gentleman in the past, should he be elevated to the Execu tive Chair, *oold add new la-tre to the es cutcheon ol our noble old State. We ear nestly hope that he will be brought forward at the next election andf that u majority of the voters of the State will place a man at the head of the administration who will do his do'y, regardless of friend or foe Not»ith-tand ng the bard times, orange flowers and ministers are in high demand dow nlu re. V\ ithin the past ten days I have heat dot not less Ilian a half score, and sev eral more in prospect. If your editorship is matrimonially inclined, and cannot be suited antin g the lair belles of your city, rub Ihe ink and dust from your face and clothes and turn your steps in this direction. I promise you that among onr (air lasses you c.innot tail to be pleased, snd that you will surrender unconditionally. 1 have to chronxde the sad fact of the growing illncts of Mr. Thus. McKibben, of this county, one of our mod u-ft!ul and ener getic eiiiz ns Mr. McKibhen his reached the green old age of seventy, and has the confidence and esteem of the entire commun ity.
