•The new fast mail for the Sontb began
last Sunday. Tho larger cities willreoeive
great benefits thereby. Congressman
BJmtttt, of tho Sixth district, is the prime
mover of this fast mail preject, and to him
many thanks are dno."
Onr neighbor, the Dodgo County Jour
nal, has been sadly imposed upon by some
one. Congressman Blount has steadily op
posed every effort togive Utconand Middle
Oeorgia a fast mail service, os tho Con
gressional Record and tho files of this pa
per will establish. Moreover, he has occu
pied the position of chairman of the Uonse
committee cn pnst-offioes and post-roads
for two yean, and oonld with ease at almoet
any momoSt daring that time bate secured
for this section mail facilities ei j >yod by
other business centers and competing
points.
Macon and Middle Georgia owe to Con
gress man Blonnt's opposition to a fast mail
three years discrimination by which Florida
and tbe Georgia coast section have erjoyed
from six (o ten hoars advantage in business
with the North.
The service now promisod is the result of
newspaper showings and demands. If Con
gressman Blonnt has been driven into an
acqulesoanot with what oould not have de
cently been postponed longer, we are glad
to record tho faot. The claim ttat ho was

cently he mado a speeoh in Detroit, in
which ho said: "When we apeakot the New
South it oannot be meant that any national
change has taken plaoe in tbe oharooter or
qualities of the people, nor do I think Itde-
atrable them should be any obange, for I am
sure, from what I know of them, if any did
take plaoe it would be tor the worse. They
aro a generous, brave, open-hearted people,
utterly devoid of tho cloae, calculating,
selfish powor that you will find in some
parts of the country strongly developed,
and as freo from bigotry and intolerance as
any people under the ann. They wore
-greatly mlsnnderatool at the North before
the late civil war, and they are misunder
stood yet. 1 have lived among them since
fourteen years of ago, and I have bad an
experience that few natives ever hsd to test
their true character. * • * • The
changes wbioh havo taken place at the
Booth were such as might hare been ex
pected to follow the result of a great war.
Freedom is now national, not seotional.
The amendments to the oonstitntion have
been sincerely sooepted by the people. Tho
emancipated slaves are oonoedod every po
litical right enjoyed by the white man, and
are doing as well as any laboring class in
tbe world. Tbe right ot aeoesalon with the
institntion of slavery is abandoned forever,
and since tbe people have been left to regn
late their own affairs peace, contentment
and prosperity have fallowed. "Thera is
no part of the Booth with whleh I am ac-
q tinted where Northern men will not be
waioomed and eoneeded at mnoh freedom
of opinion as they can hive any where.
With the exeeptions that I have stated
there is nothing new about the Booth, nor
is there any desire for a change. The sim
plicity and aioocrity ot social Ufa at the
South needs so improvement from older
oountriee to' inoreiM the happiness ot the
people, for in some of the over-refined civ
ilizations of the earth there will ho found an
internal rottenness which, if revealed to
public view, would shock every feeling of
humanity.” __________
