DAWSON WEEKLY JOURNAL.
Wo enter, this week, upon the publi
eaiiin of the FOURTH VOLUME of
our journal. Id making it the medium
of general information to all classes of
our fellow-citizens in this section of the.
State, wc have eudenvored to spare no
paius nor expense, recognizing as one of
the groat principles of tbo success of
the Press, that much depends upon an
indomitable energy and a scrupulous re
gard for the opinions and feelings of
those who have eo generously come to
our aid in sustaining us in tbo publica
tion of our paper. And we should bo
recreant to our own loelings were wo to
fail in returning to our various patrons
our unfeigned thanks for patronago so
liberally bestowed.
While we intend our paper to be the
advocate of those principles adopted aud
sustained by the Democratic party of
Georgia, based upon the Corstitutien of
our common country, as transmitted to
us by our Fathers, which guarantees
to our free whita citizeus crpial rights
iu all sections of our country; yet, vt<
do not intond its columns to be devoted
•lone to political essays, but shall devote
much of our paper to Miscellaneous
matter, and such other articles as shall
be most conducive to the Agricultural
interest of our planters—together with
the prosperity of our Merchants, Mc
cbtnics, and business men generally*
from whom we have received a liberal
share of patronage.
In conclusion, from the fact that the
Journal has a largo circulation in
South-Western Georgia, and a constant
increase iu its subscription list, we have
no hesitancy in sayiog that it affords
the best advertising medium to all classes
of our citizens of any other paper in this
section of the country. With these
facts before the public, wo earnestly so
licit a continuance of that patronage
heretofore so liberally bestowed upon us,
wi h the assurance that the future of
the Journal shall exccll, in every res
pect, that of the past.
ICudiraH»ui Dead—Cieorgia nil
Iliglit.
Perhaps no psople, brave aud gen
erous, who ever fought for their liber
ties and had at last to yield to superior
numbers, has suffered more from the
oppression of their cenquorers. The
Southern soldier when he laid down
Lis shield and rendered up his “cause
as lost,” never designed to prostitute
his rights to honor or sacrifice those
principles which has ever boon dear to
every freeman, although overpowered
and conquered by his enemies. Since
our causo was lost, tho Southern peo
plo havo obeyed every mandate, ful
filled every demand made upon them
by those who have dictated tho terms
of surrender; and th ; s fact alone seems
to have sharpened the thirst of our con
quorors to invent new schemes for our
oppression and siuk us lower and lowei
in the scale of human beings. The lie
publican party, who holds the power
planned and put into operation the
terms upon which the Stato of Geor
gia should bo restored again to the
Union and participate in every right
and privilege secured to any other
State under tho Constitution of our
common coun'ry; and tho State was
completely made over in accordance
with the Reconstruction laws, and has
been acknowledged as in fellowship
with the Union, by thoSenato directly
rjnd indirectly; and the Senate has
passed a concurrent resolution, declar
ing the Fourteenth Constitutional
Amendment as adopted by tv o-thirds
of the States, thus embracing Georgia.
Will any sane tr.an tells us how the
Congress of the United States can
tqj(e other steps in relation to Re
conrructing Georgia? If Georgia
was not properly reconstructed, it was
no fault of hors—for Congress mould
ed her as clay in the bunds of the pot
ter. The whole wisdom of both Houses
of Congress w as expanded ia passing
Amending and improving the Recon
struction acts; and that body has ac
knowleged the conformity of Georgia
to the requirements of law. The very
indentieal Constitution under which
Georgia was reconstructed, and re
ceived by Congress, gave to the Leg
islature of Georgia the right to judge
of tho qualifications of its own mem
bers, thus prohibiting forever the inter
ference of Congress in relation to the
colored members being excluded from
the legislature, and this having been
done, notwithstanding the design of
Congress to the contrary, then that
body has no right to complain. If
Congress can assume such unlimited
unparalled in tha history of
Governments, as to declare a State in
the Union, under their own prcgrmme,
a»d then turn it out at any time, then
the same powor con, with equal justice
bo made applicable to any other State,
and ours becomes a consolidated Gov
ernment and all the |>owur concentre
ted in tho Congress ot the United
States. Establish this principle in this
country, and contusion, anarchy and
bloodshed would soon take the placo
of those pure principles which have
heretofore controlled this great coun
try; and liberty would forever disap
pear from the land, and gloom and
darkness overshadow us all.
Not only has Congress acknowledged
Georgia to ho in the Union by tho
adoption of the Reconstruction Acts;
but by counting of the “electoral vote
of the State of Georgia, this to our
mind, is a full recognition of tho Stato,
as u mornbor of the American Union
in full fellowship." And wo hesitate
not to say, that Georgia owes tiio lion.
Ben Wade and Speaker Colfax a vote
of thanks for their determined position
in relation to this whole all air. The
Conservative tnonilrors among tho Re
publicans in Congress, men who dnro
to do right, together with the Demo
crats, w ill sound (lie douGi of the Rad
ical Forty, headed by such men as

in this, its darkest, incurs. A brighter
day will eoop dawn upon us—the ship

rejoicing millions. “Stand still, and
see the salvation of God!’’
For tho Dawson “Journal.”
The Allaalii iDetliral College.
Mr. Editor, —I am happy in being
enabled to announce to tbo Medical
Profession, that the difficulty heretofore
existing betwe n the Faculty and Trus
tees, and tho Profession of Georgia has
been fiually settled, and the fnsthution,
as it should have always been, placed
again under the control and direction of
the Trustees. Tho amendment to the
original charter, which was obtained by
fraud and deception, and which gave tno
Faculty the entire control of tho Gol -
legs, was such an outrage upon the Pro
fession, that they utterly repudiated it,
aud its graduates, as unworthy of re
cognition. The Legislature, in its wis
dom, has repealed tho Amendment, ap
pointed nine additional now Trustees,
who will, with the former B;ard, con
trol the futuro of the Ins i'ulion. I
trust that the Trustees, iu soleotiug a
Faculty m9y be governed by one prin
ciple alone, that cf filling tho several
chairs with m nos capaeity--men win
will refit ot credit upon the College an!
young men who may, in future, gradu
ate in the institution. I would simjly
say, that it ij duo Prof. T. S. Puw:!!
that he be again re-instated in the chair
of Obstetrics, which ho formally filled,
from the fact, that Le is emphatically
qualified for tho po.-i i >n, aud known to
be cne of tho ablest Teachers in the
South; while tho Profession of G’O'gia
ask it in his behalf, for his manly and
untiring dofeucc in favor of the princi
ples of true and legitimate medicine.
While I reoognisc in tho former Fa
culty gentlemen, yet this feature alone,
does not, necessarily, make a man com
petent t> fill a oil ir iu a M.dioai Col
leg-; and l stale, without the fear of con
tradict! n, that the members of tho late
Faculty were incompetent for the posi
tions they have lately occupied in the
Institution. If the Trustees desires the
future prosperity of tho College, they
should, by all means, in making their
select ions, otiooge men of known abilities
and long practical experience. Should
they re instate those who havo created
these difficulties between themselves and
the Trustees, it will he but giving indi
rect sanction to their past acts, and
open afresh the opposition of tho entire
Profession of Georgia, and forever hirst
the reputation of tho College. The rapid
growth ot Atlanta, its central position,
together with various other advantages
which might he mentioned, makes it the
prominent locality for a Medical Col
lege, aud I trust that the Trustees will
not be governed by favoritism or local
prejudices in tho selection of a Faculty,
but alone by a desire to promote the fu
turc prosperity of the Oollego, aud the
young men who may hereafter claim the
IthStituiion as their Alma Muter.

This order is both just- and sensible,
S'iya the Macon Telegraph. The publi

been the practice for some months past;
only subjects advertisers to a useless

Hu inner, upon the resolution now
befoto tho Senate, says;
“You need votes in Connecticut, do
you not ? I'hero ure three thousand

so in Pennsylvania, do you not? There
are at least fifteen thousund iu that
great State waiting for your summons,
Whereever you most need them, there
tlioy are."
To which the New York Express
says: “One knows not which most to
admire, the candor or audacity of this
avowal. To tako the control of suf
frage from tho States, where ii has
rested from the foundation of the Gov
ernment is as offensive as it is unwise.
By-nnd-by, too, reaction will coino,
and then tho authors or States advo
cating such a rovolution rn»y be the
first to recoil against it, for, as the
Now bury port Herald (Rep) forcibly
says;
“It is bad policy in New England to
threaten the rights of States, for some
day there may come a party to power
asking reconstruction on tho basis of
equality, and where then will our
twelve Senators he?"
“But fanatics like Sumner and Wil
son hoed not tho future, says tho At

for the past. The wonder is that men
from tho Northwest consent to follow

Os an Acre.
Tho Chronicle <{; Sentiml, of Friday,
learns from a gentleman residing iu
Lexington, Oglethorpe county, the fol
lowing facts with reference tn the
profit derived from thu cotton product
of this amount of land, tilled last year
in that villuge :
“The lot contained not quite nine
tenths of an acre, and was bordered on
both pales with a row of large Bride
“I India trees, which completely shad
ed the land for several feet, leaving
for cultivation about three fourths of
an acre. This was planted about the
mi Idle of April in cotton—the seed
used being the Moina variety. The
plant had three plowings, and was
hoed twice. The entire yield was sev
enteen hundred aud thirty-two pounds
of seed cotton, which made a hale
weighing 530 pound pounds of lint.—
The crop was carefully handled, put
up in a neat package, shipped to this
market and sold for forty cents a
pound.
“The profit was as follows :
One bale, 630 lbs , sold at 40 cents
per #>. *-212 00
Forty-one bushels of seed sold at *lo
per bushel 410 00
Total ptsgU* from_| of an acre 622 00
“The expenses were :
Kent of land $5 00
Breaking & bedding land for plant
ing 1 00
/’lanting 75
Three plowing* 1 60
Two hoeings 1 00
Picking, at 5 cents per pound 8 60
Ginning, packing and expenses to
market 7 25
Total expenses $ 26 00
which, deducted from 622 00
leaves as net profit 697 00
“Here we have a net profit from
three fourths of an acre of land of near
ly six hundred dollars, being at the
rate ot about eight hundred dollars per
acre. Wliat a future looms up for the
Southern poople, ff they will only be
wise and industrious in the use of tho
splendid advantages which nature has
given theta! We do not pretend to
say that eight hundred dollars can be
realized for every acre planted in cot
ton yet awhile, but we see no reason
why, with judicious management and j
a proper system of fertilizing and rota
tion of crops, that amount and much
more may not be made in a few years.

Die Revolution, the organ of
the women’s rights movements, gives
the following as a “real occurrence,”
aud vouches for i;s correctness. It cer
tainly s tinds very nature! to cars which
have heard any negro preacher di.cant
upon the subject of politics.
“A negro preacher of the Gospel, and
doubtless a little inspired,nil being asked
if lie was in favor of women suffrage, rc
[•licdjj’i'h great pomp : “No sar, l i
posed to dat, it w ill not do at all. I tell
you dat do woman was de first to com
mit sin, sar. 1 tell you dat de datnsi 1
demanded de head of John de Baptist,
sar. I toll you dat when God made
urn he gave de man power over all
living, and male de man boss over d
woman, sar. I tell yon dat God let de
man name ebry thing and do man
uamed dc woman Eve, because she was
the mot her of all Evcil. I till you,
sar, it will never do, sar, for I am a

before me, aud I am a better preacher
than he ever dare be; I tell you what,

What purpose the reader, guided by the
remembrance of the costomary doing)

at once imagine. For'.cnatelythfjfaale
