DEAD l
It i* with feo'ings of the sincercst
regret, rays the Macon Journal (ft Mrs
tmger, that wc annonneo the death, a*
his residence in this city, of Mr. Simiu
Kose, one of the late proprietors of the
‘‘Journal and Messenger,” and a gentle
man widely known and highly esteemed
throughout the State.
Mr. Rose hid b en a rosident of Ma
con •Imrst from the day the first log
cabin was built on its present site, com
ing here about the year 1823. From
that day till about one year ago he was
engaged in tbo newspaper publication
business—first of the “Georgia Jour
nal,” and thon the “Georgia Journal
and Messenger.” II • was an indus
trious, conscientious and influential man
in his profession, and bis loss will be
mourned by no class more than the old
subscribers to this paper, many of whom
have been reading it for over a quarter
of a century.
Mr. Rose, at tbo time of his death,
was Grand Secretary of the Grand
Lodge of Masons in this State.
His disease, which was pneumonia,
only attacked him Friday night, and he
died on Sunday morning. He was in
the 70th year of his age at the time of
his death.
Ex-President Johnson.
We give space this week, for extracts
of a speech male by Ex-President
Johnson, at Knoxville, Tonn
This speeeb is worthy of perusal by
all our readers, aud gives moitt Lforma
tion of Congress, the rnatcr'al of which
it is made, and what we nay expect
from them, than any document we have
seen. We had a poor opinion of Mr
Johnson at one dme, but fear his pres
ence and influence at Washington will
bo much needed, to keep the South ou
of degradation and ruin.
Southern Cotton Factories.
From every part of Georgia, says the
Federal Union, we arc pleased to hear
that the people are waking up to the
importance of manufacturing our own
cotton. This is the spirit. Every sur
should be invested in manufactories.—
If the people at the North can make im
mense fortunes by manufacturing cotton
brought from Georgia, surely wo can
make more when both the cotton and
make of the goods ate close by us.—
There is no doubt that cotton factories
at the South is the most profitable in
vestment for capital that can be found
in the United States and men of mean?
will soon find it out.
But the people of the South should
not miss this splendid chance of makiDg
money—they, too, should take part in
it. We hope in ten yoar3 the cotton of
Georgia will be mostly manufactured in
Georgia.
Cuba.
The question of the recognition of
Cuban independence, says a special
dispatch to the Louisville Courier, was
substantially adoptei to-day by the
House Committee on Foreign Affairs,
Fernando Wood and Governor Swann
voting with the Republicans and mak
ing the report unanimous. The pros
pect is that when reported it will pass
the House. There is no doubt that
this committee is considerably ahead
ot the views of the Senate and the ad
ministra'ion. The latter declines to
take any rash steps calculated to com
promise our neutral obligations in re
gard to Cuba. The Secretary of State,
on the application of the Spanish loga
tion here, has sent instructions to all
the seaboard marshals and the district
attorneys to enforce the provisions oS
the neutrality laws against all parties
fitting out filibustering expeditions in

Os Gen. S. W. Crawford, who is to ;
take the place of General Moade as the
military commandant of this State, the
Louisville Courier Journal writes in :bc
following highly complimentary manner:
“The promotion < l this popular geu - j
tinman ard meritorious rHi or to the!
Colonelcy of the Second Infantry is an I
appropriate recognition of his services ■
and distinguished gallantry; and is a 1
source of gratification to tbo large circle j
of friends he has here and elsewhere.—,
His removal from here will bo regretted
by all who have oorne in contact with j
him, either socially o olli al; - . Ifisi
courteous manners r.nd frank address, j
united to good sense aud a souod judg- ;
uient, will always make him friendss j
wherever be goes Tbo good people of ,
Atlanta will find in him a commander
who will maintain order anil discipline j
among bis troops and endeavor to pro- j
serve good feeling between them and the
citizens. General Crawford bears the
n putatiou of being a fair mao, and by
no means a violent or extreme ono. It is
to be hoped thin, that, during bis sojourn
in Georgia, it will prove as sati.-l .ctory
to the people there as his residence hero
has been. It is only by sending South
such men as Hancock, Crawford aud
others like them that the Government
cau hope to restore) tha era of good so 1-

Georgia—Tho N.w Yoik World's
Washington correspondent, under date
of 31st uP., furnishes that paper with
the following;
A Georgia delegation, headed by C -l
onel Bryant, formrtly of the Confeder
ate army, was heard by the Committee
on the Georgia question. Bryant said
ho opposed this bill an! tho general pol
icy of the Radicals in Cmgrrss with re
ferenee to Georgia, which, if carried out
wuold, in his opinion, make a Fccond
Roland or a second Ireland of the State.
He said the people of Georgia including
rebels, were will disposed and desired
harmony, but the mischievous lcgisla
tion proposed would ned only overthrow
the Republican party in the State, but
drive tbe people to desperation, and
none could foretell the disasters to fol
low. lie censured Governor Bullock,
to whom he attributed the defeat of the
Fifteenth Amendment in the Georgia
flrT.'**- an< l adds that if unlimited power
was placed in his ban*.*, os proposed by
this bill, incalculable injury wouli
done to the State and country,
Senator Sprague, of B’.oli
Island, says tho Richmond Enquirer,
has lately become a large property-hold
ir in South Carolina. That (or some
thing else, for wo wish to be charitable)
has “reconstructed” his political posi
tion. This change, at any rate, is ap
parent from a remarkable speech he
made in tho Senate a day or two ago.
Hear him ;
>,y . f'- ~ .
past history of this country—and .ho
people, whatever philosophers may say,
will come to the same conclusion—have
como to believe that your war has not
been won for tho liberties of any class
of people; your war that you have just
partially coucluded,'has had no high vir
tuous principle at the bottom of it. It
has had simp’o contentions for power,
for place and for occupation, commenc
ing here in this body, and permeating
throughout tho country."
A correspondent says that “these ut
terances are more important, inasmuch
as they emauate from Mr Sprague,
whoso vote, even upon the impeachment
trial, was ono of the surest in the inter
est of extreme Radicalism. They are
still more transcendency significant for
the reason that the speech i= known here
to be the production, and therefore a
chart of the sentiments of Judge Cease ,
himself!”

Sjicetii of Ex-President John
son.
Knoxville, April 3.—The city is
crowded with the old friends of An
drew Johnson. At nn early hour this
morning they assembled in little knots
in the streets, talking about Andy’s
old triumphs Special trains on tho
railroads brought crowds to tho city
At 11 A. m , a special train arrived
from Greenville with Mr. Johnson
Ho was greeted at the train by a delo
gation of citizens, with a band of mu
sic, and escorted to tho Lumar House
in a barouche, in company wi h Col.
Nelson and Jno. M. Fleming, of the i
Press and Herald.
After a short delay Mr. Johnson
was introduced to the assembled
crowd, numbei ing about five thousand,
by Col. Nelson, who referred to his
previous political differences with ihe
distinguished gentleman before them,
and to their argument upon tho v tal
question of union ; and recurring to
the persecutions inflicted upon Mr.
Johnson for Union sentiments, he e ! o
quently do-ci ibed his patriotic course
during the war, and in conclusion al
luded to his wi-e and conciliatory poli
cy of reconstruction
Mr Johnson, after returning thanks
for the cordiality of the welcome, said
ha had endeavored to protect the Con
stitution. Ail he asked was a lair ex
amination of his record. He intended
to devote the remainder of his life as a
private citizen, to the vindication of his
official life and bis native State, from
tbe foul obloquy that bad been heaped
upon him and her Though bent, he
bad not been broken by the storm
which had nearly wrecked the ship nf
Statu, lie bad seen in the papers bis
own obituary, and supposed he might
be listened to as one risen irom the
dead, and he thought belief should be
placed in ono coming from the grave.
[A voice: “Not so dead yet.”]
The Constitution, 6aid Mr. Johnson,
divides the Government into three de
partments. When the Congress of
the United States, excited by partisan
interest and the spirit of tyranny, vio
luted the Constitution, I vetoed their
bills nn 1 sent them back. Let us see
how those department operate. Each
is confined to its sphere. Let us rea
son together. Where is danger to tho
Government? I tell you here to-day,
and as one speaking horn tho dead
it is in the legislative department. Tho
Executive has only negative power.—
The judiciary can only expound tho
la\V, but tho Legislature can pass laws
of the n?ost arbitrary character, and
under pretence of jaw trample upon
the liberties ot i!.® people. Those who
are trying to undermine the Ciih*ti,u
tlon have given tho impression that
two thirds majority has tho power to i
set aside the Constitution.
They can go on until Congress—a
capricious Congress—yes, a despotic
—yes, a usurping Congress—will take
away tho liberties of tha peopile, but I
still fee! that l stood as a break water
tit ti e head of the American Govern
ment, and arrested the progress of tho
1 pin know what was goiflfg on; and
while others may claim tho honor of
having established the Government, I
feel 1 can, without egotism, claim the
credit of having been efficient in its
preservation. The time has come to
talk about the first principles of Gov
ernment. Take away tho restraints
which hold back Congress and you
have a despotic Government.
Without a cheek on the legislative
department of government, you have
Congress with its discretion—or, per
haps, I should say its indiscretion—the
measure of its power. Jefferson de
scribes just such a body as this—'he
exact embodiment of despotism—and
let me tell you bore that a wise and
good prince is infinitely better than a
usurping, arbitrary, despotic Congress.
[Voieo: “That’s so”| Look at the
course of Great Britain towards tho
Colonies, and compare it with that of
Congress. Look at the Declaration of
Independence and see how tho recent
acts of Congress are similar to the
course of Great Bi itain then. When
that declaration was made, an 1 the
people saw their wrong, they were
aroused to gain their fie dom Now
look at our condition. Tho great writ
of habeas corpus suspended, and when
a citizen of the United States appealed
to tho Supremo Court, nn arbitrary
Congress took from him tho right of
appeal and deprived him of his liberty.
| Mr. Johnson alluded to the charge
j of trea on to his party, and asked when
had lie been false to tbe platform upon
which bo was nominated? lie then
' took up tho sneering accusation about
his being Moses, ar.d asked if it was
not be that freed the negroes in Ten
nessee. Freedom was only liberty to
work—it was not to build up a miser
able lazaroni ty be supported by tho
Government. Lot me tell you, colored
men, (and I have never deceived whi e
men or black men,) that these men
who talk about your old masters have
on’y delivered you up to new masters.
\ You arc slaves to the league. Let me
j say to you as I said to my old servant,
as l told him when I came back :
j “Sam, the inly difference bo:ween us
I is. that 1 froed you lour years ago, and
1 1 was only emancipated on the 4th of
I March.” So you seo lam addressing
1 you as a freedman. [/mughter.]
j As evidence of his loyalty, he said
j lie had a paper signed by Wm. G.
j Brownlow, acknowledging the receipt
! of fifteen hundred dollars to establish a
| Union press at Knoxville, and to de
fray Brownbtv’B expenses in escupiug
‘ front secession oppression.
The time is full of alarming portents,
j the country is in danger, and let mo
j bit my warning voice Look at tho
j taxes of Statu and of Federal Govern
| ment collects one hundred and fifty
j millions —three times as much as was
necessary a few years ago for tho
J whole expenses of the Government—to
pay the bondholders. You black men
might as well know this, that whilo
they have been enfranchising you and
disfranchising white men, they bavo
been making you slaves. Yes, you
are all slaves together to bondholders
who have never shed a drop of blood.
I wouid to God that the Government
had not tho credit to borrow a dollar
to carry on the war. If the people
had not had the wherewith beforehand
to pay the cost of a War, we should
never have had one. Tiiank God, iny
march has not been through Golgotha.
My honors have not been gained by
blood. The widows and tho one
armed soldiers cannot utiribute their
wrongs to me.
I stand here vindicating the Con
stitution as it was handed down to me;
and hero, in tho lust hours oi my life, I
cal!'upon you to cling to the Constitu
tion of our country as tho mariner
clings to his compass,
Mr Johnson spoke about two hours,
and be was listened to with the close t
attention. On retiring Ir tn the stand
he was hearti y applauded, and was
at once surrounded by old friends. —
Several hours passed in interchanging
reminiscences.
In conversation ho spoke without re
servo of Grant, whom he characterized
as a bundle of prejudices, and of his
Gift Enterpri e Cabinet—as ho called
it. The people are heattily glad to see
Johnson again among them, and seem
to think he will succeed in overthrow
ing despotism in Tennessee.

Rewarding a Spy—Look Out
tor Your Letters, Ye Kiclt
inoiit! People.
It. war in tho time of Rmoulus that
Tarpeia, the daughter of the Governor
of the Ii tman citidt-l, agreed to b. tray
the garis n. Caret '■* 'he bracelets
worn by tbe Sabine rs, she de
manded, as a reward, tise ornaments
which they carried upon their left arms.
She opened the gates of tbe fortress, and
having gained possession of it, the Sa
bines threw their shields upon the trait
ress and crushed her to death. Down
through all the subsiquent centuries,
soys the Baltimore Gazette, the crime
which has been held in most general
detestation among mec is treachery.—
Even those who profit by the deed inva
tiibly despise tho wretch who perpe
trates it. But as human sffiirs are con
duc ed, it is unhappily ncccs.-iry both
for the civil aud military auth rities t f
a nation to reward individuals in ccr
lain cases for their desertion of duty or
betrayal of a trust. But such is the
contempt usually felt for the traitor that
he is generally awarded his recompense
iu gold, and is seldom elevated to a lu
crative place or honorable offi >o. Ar
nold was cnc of tho exceptions to this
rule, but notwithstand ng tbe rank con
ferred upon him, ho was universally ab
horred by the people to whom he sought
to render such valual le service. But
•he Radical par y in this couutry, hav
ing no nice scruples about the means
by wtn.th i* drains its ends, makes lit
tle distinction between dirty and honor
erafcle w> ri. It confers uprfl the spy ar.d
the traitor the same kind of reward that
it gives to the gallant soldier. A> if to

General Grant was before it. Sue was
entitled to blood money for her base
treachery, but it is indecent and scanda
lous to the last degree that such a per
son should be elevated, to a high and re
spoa-i'olo office. All other considera

that tne Government agents should be

habitual drunkards, but actually drunk
when they committed the crime; and he
also remarks that “these were not bad

of liquor; and yet, justice can make no

who commits crime uad r such circum
