Our subject, though novel, is yet ap
plicable to the times, whether we in
dulge in thoughts as to private ooneerns,
or consult the more weighty matter of
public affairs as they stand with regard
to ourselves at this tune, and arrange
ment of circumstances. However gent
ly we may have pursued our course in
the ordinary duties of life, und however
strict tnay have been ourearo in striving
to avoid the collisions that are inoideirt
in the term of our natural existence,
none can claim to have met every re
sponsible feature without being subject
to some inconveniences. Social inter
course in every community, has, in a
degree, more or less, its trials and per
plexities, and these unfeeling assaults by
parties in opposition, may very properly
be considered under tbo head of our i
subject.
It has been reasonably affirmed in re
gard to the sciences of natural law, that
every oause must produce a correspond
ing effeot, though no system of ethics
will allow that evil must be returned
for evil. Leaving communities out of
the question, we propose to deal with
those who have in the first instant set
out to cure the immoralitiss of the ags.
Radicalism had much to trouble ils
righteous self about the sins of involun
tary servitude, and now after the South
has willingly given up her claims to
slavery, it fails to adopt the teachings of
that higher law, whiah says return good
for evil. Watch the ill will manifested
by Congress in its desire to pay off an
old grudge for the evils it claims to have
suffered from us as a people, and for
whien, the worst humiliation is to ex
alted in its pious opinion.
From the highest posiiion in our po
litical organization to the lowest, we are
eensiblo of a multiplicity of contrarie
ties that are continually producing jars
in the national raaobiuery, and private
policy in all of its hetcrogenious ramifi
cations is subject to such material ef
fects as may follow. It is an unfortun
ate affair for communities, even when
they are subject to the parleying of such
unnatural opposition, how much greater
mast be tbe painful result when we are
forced to quaff from the fountains of jus
tice, where is strangely mingled tho
dregs of discontent. Would the Kadi'
oil portion of Congress a’loviate tho suf
ferings of humanity by imparing the
chances of their hopeful sway for future
legislation, not the least; this crriDg
swell of ambition, justifies us in the as
sertion, that were it possible, their reck
leas desire would result in having the
globe itself rocked fiom its prescribed
orbit. It is certain that no hope can be
gleamed from a source where so much
hatred is oherished against us, and where
laws are prescribed uuder such a charge
of malice. Mora legislation will doubt
less follow in this assembling of Con
gress, without accomplishing anything
to purpose, as relative to the rights we
are deprived of as a portion of the gov
ernment, It is far from the design of
Radical power, to allow us any privileges
they can possibly avoid, and a9 lung as
they oan work effectually against the in
terests ofour people, their perversed cu
pidity will be satisfied with the result of
their labors
Editorial Cow-Hiding. —Gen. A.
R. "Wright, of tbe Chioniole & Senti
nel, soys the Lagrange Reporter, felt
it necessary, as he says, to chastise Mr
E H. Pughe, tbe publisher and pro
prietor of the Augusta Republican, the
other day, for personally abusive ar
ticles in that Radical sheet. It seems
that Pughe is not the editor, hut that
one J. R. Hood, a Georgia renegade,
wrote the articles which so aggrieved
Gen. Wright. From some cause the
“Republican” has l>»en more moder
ate the last few days Well, as that
aju’t our fight, we offer no comment
eu tbe immorality of personal attacks,
whether through the papers or through
the papers or through the agency of
the r.iw hide.
j£2TThe West End suburd of At
lanta is fast growing into importance.
It is now incorporated as a separate
town from Atlanta, and is to have a
city government of its own, independ
ent of Atlanta, thus making taxes much
lighter, while protection to the citizens
is mu renter. A street railroad is
about to jo started, connecting the
West Endian* with the main town,
and we expect to receive a copy of the
"West End Gazette. “Go in West KnJ
ians and Win.” So says tbo GritHn
Star.
Mij. J. P. Cowardiu is looiuritg in
Augusta on tho ‘Horrors of Reconstruc
tion.
Suit'll* too Mroiig for Radical*.
We havo no consi.bition to give the
Domoorado members of Congress who
arc so much exercised ab ut the pres
ence of a negro member in C>ngrcn. —
We siueerdy hope theii nerves may bo
put to-the utmost tcosion by bis being
compelled to take a seat on their side of
the Home. Perhaps by the end of the
session they may havo become accus
tomed to the innovation.— Forney's
I Vest.
The Democratic members n other need
or want, says the Augusta Clirun.cfc A
Sentinel, the consolation of such unmit
igated bypoarites and false friends as
Forney and his Kauieal crew. The Dem
ocrats have opposed all the effifts of the
Radicals to legislate tho oegro into eo
ciul and political equality with the white
race. They have male no promise to
ihc negro which they have failed to com
ply with, no pledges which they have
refused to redeem.
The Radical*, whose organ Fjrney
assumes to be, have held out all sorts of
inducements to the negroes so secure
their support They have made the ig
norant and deluded negroes believe that
they wero equal in all respects, if not
superior, to tho white raoe, sad h ive as
sured them that so Jar ms the Radicals
were concerned, he should be protected
aDd (stablisbed in tho enjoyment of all
the rights, privileges and immunities en
joyed by the whites.
And now whoo the negroes, aotiog
under the advice aDd oouosels of the
Radicals, send ono of their own class to
Congress, those iogrste hypocrites at
tempt to exclude him from his seat upon
the ground that he has not been a citi
zen seven years. And not content with
this opposition, they announee in ad
vance, that if ho is admitted to his seat,
he shall not sit on the Radical side of
the House with Radicals, but that ho
mu«t take his place alongside of Demo
cratic members. Cuffee smells too strong
to si* close by Forney and his friends—
tho contamination of his presence must
be shifted upon tho Democratic side.
Wo hope the oolored men of tho
South will consider well this treatment
toward one of tboir color by the white
Radicals in Congress.
Important to Cotton Plant
ers—The Cotton Worm.
We commend the following, extracted
from the Selma (Ala.) Timet and Mes
senger, of the oth instant, to the atten
tion of cotton planters in this section :
The Cotton Worm. —This scourge
seem? to increase in virulence from year
to year. It is expected with the regu
larity of the season. Its early appear
ance in considerable numbers is fatal to
the crop. Its appearance at any time
cuts short to a greater or less extent the
orop. A thousand methods have been
devised for protection against it. So far,
everything done to prevent its appear
ance or to check its ravages, has been in
vain. There is danger that in a few
years it will destroy the cultivation of
cotton altogether.
A few weeks ago we published a state
ment from a Texas paper that the egg
was deposited in the stalk of tbe plant, {
where it remained until the proper sea- 1
son, protected against i’s enemies, then |
to appear upon its mission of destruc- j
tion, and that to gather up closely and j
burn the dry stalks iu the fall and win
ter would neoessarily destroy them.
Yesterday we saw, in the counting 1
room of Messrs. Hardee & Robinson,
proof of tbe correctness of this theory.
There were the dry stalks. Ou the sur- j
face was the scar left when tho eggs
were deposited. Inside, in the pith of
the stalks, were tbe eggs in some places,
and in others worms already emorged
from tbe egg, and feeding upon tbe soft
part of tbe stalk surrounding thorn.
Wc [resume any planter can have
abandaut proof of the theory in ques
tion. He has only to look for it in tho
stalks in the cotton field.
This matter appears to us worthy of
attention If the egg is deposited in
the stalk and thus preserved aDd
warmed into life and sustained through !
the winter, fire is tho remedy beyond
question.
This Loaded Dice. —ls Gen. Grant 1
has that respect for “the will of the peo- !
pie” which he expres.-ce in his letter ac- I
cepting the Chicago nomination, it will .
scarcely be satisfactory to hitn to know,'
as he must know, that ho is not the
choice of the people of the United States
as their President. The demnoracy have
oarried OrcgoD, and if the electoral vote
were justly oouuted, it would stand as
follows :
FOR SEYMOUR,.
New York, 83
New Jersey, 7
Oregon, 3
All the Southern States, 116
Total, 169
Whole number electoral votss, 317
Oa the popular vote as it is, or was
permittid, Grant has a majority of only
about 300,1)00, and, to secure this, a
Radical Congress by force prevented
three States, sure for Seymour, from vo
ting, disfranchised morn than 500 000
democrats in all the Southern States,
and enfranchised 751,000 negroes
from slavery and the swamps.— N. Y.

Death Penalty. —The King of
Sweden has announced that hereafter
uo capital execution shall take place
in his kingdom, and that if tbe death
penalty he not abolished by law. it
shall nut ho euf >rccd by him. The
King mads this declaration on refusiug

a woman piotouer, reecLtiy convicted
in Sweden.

The Frnldeal’s
The Washington correspondent of
the Boston Post writes as f.dlows to
that paper concerning the forthcoming;
message of Picaitlent Johnson :
Pr o*i lent Jonsnon has completed
the rough drult of lii.s annual mpsavge,
Mild he congratulates himself upon the
fact that it is to be his lust. Ho says
that no man has evor surrendered offi
cial responsibility with n moiety of the
pleasure with which be will vacate the
ot'nir. His message will vindicate, at
much length, the past policy of hie ad
ministration. Not, ho says, for the pur
p se of convincing those to whom it is
addressed, but to place on record n full
vindication of his official action. Tbo
message reviews the Recon truction
Acts and compares the Reconstruction
policy of Congress with the policy of
his administration us viewed in the
light of tho Constitution as well ;.s up
on their instrinsic merits, ns plans for
restoring pence and prospen'y to a
di-tracted country. Pre iden l John
son is belter satisfied than ever of the
wisdom of the plan of restoration which
ho proposed, i.nd says that lime has
t nded to establish tho fallacy ot Con-
gressional Reo-int * ruction. Referring
to tho general shock which tho Consti
tution had receiv- and at the hands of the
dominant party, he cites cases of tyran
ny and outrage which wore its necessa
ry resalts. This portion of the mes
sage doses with an eloquent appeal to
the American people to stand by the
Union of the States, hut at tho same
time never to forget that the Constitu
tion is the sheet anchor of their free
dom. There is much iu *.he message,
it is said, to remind the country of
Washington’s farewell address, and it
may he that President Johnson had
this immortal document in mind while
dictating his last message, the details
of which ore understood to bo in a
great measure similar to the message
sent to Congress one year ago.
Bankruptcy.
The time lor filing petitions in bank
ruptcy will expire with tho present
month. By an amendment to the Bank
rupt Law passed iu J uly last, the time
for filing petitions was ex’ended to the
31st of December.
No man who owes a debt that ho is
really unablo to pay, should fail to avail
himsell us the privilege.
“Many people who arc proper sub
jects of Bankruptcy ore holding off, and
relying upon Relief nod Homestead
Laws for their protection ; such persons
are standing in their own light. Bank
ruptcy is sure and certain relief. Re
lief and Homestead Exemptions arc- un
certain, and suLjaot to so much litiga
tion that should a man fiuaily succe, and in
obtaining relief from emharras-iment
through their instrumentality, it will
very likely oost him more than Bank
ruptcy. The relief law p sselbythe
last Legislature has alrealy bee a pro
nounced unemstitu’i nal by every
Judge of the Superior C iurt in Geor
gia, before whom the question has been
made, with perhaps one exception.
“It is doubtful whether the Homc-
I stead Exemption provided for in the
State Constitution will stand against a
debt contracted pri.r to tbo adoption of
that Constitution; for it is a rule of law
that “the law of a contract is the law
that existed at the time the contract wa
made.” It is almost certaiu that it will
not stand against judgment, mortgage,
or other legal lion existing prior to that
time, for it is also a rule of law that “a
lien once vested uanuot bod vested by
subsequent legi-1 iti >n.” Binkruptcy
is certaiu relief to every man who makes
an hanost suricnder, and is perhaps the
cheapest m ide of obtaining relief, while
the effort to obtain relief from State
laws opans a wide field for expensive lit
igation, and h, to say the least of it,
very uncertain as to its result. Then
why should the people delay ?”
On and after January Ist, parties
wishing to avail themselves of the bene
fit of the law roust be able to pay fifty
cents on the dollar of what they owe—
There is now no time to bo lost.—At

Georgia Tobacco —'l here is a grow
ing interest manifested in tbe cultiva
tion of tobacco in Northei n Georgia.
The climate and soil are found to be
in no way inferior to that of Virginia,
and some specimens showed us manu
factured at Clarkosville will compare
favorably with tho best Lynchburg
chewing tobacco.
We clip the above from tbe Augusta
Chronicle. There is no doubt that
Georgia has the finest soil and climate
in the Union for a successful cuitivu
ticn of tobacco. An old Virginian in
formsd us some years ago, after trav
elling through the upper ixjrtiou of the
State, that it had no equal in that re
spect South of Mason and Dixon’s line.
It may not be generally known, but
we have a distinct recollection of hav
ing seen tho statement in some uu
thentic history, that Georgia exported
three thousand hogsheads ol tobacco
the first or second year after the close
of the Revolution.
