THE CHATTOOGA ADVERTISER <.. .V. If. Ti C KER. Editor And Proprietor gamnel llawkins, 1 Asooeiate Editor. *FRIDAY, JI NK 1871 How Shall Grant be Beaten We'thitfk it to be regretted that so nmch feeling ha- Wen engendered in k the ranks of the Democratic party, sandf and so much disaffection evinced be fore the Baltimore Convention has k convened. Some editors and politi k clans will be exhausted before the can- P va-s has fairly opened. Sonic have recklessly pinned their iaith to Mr. Greeley without waiting for the Deni s’ ceraric National Convention to assetn hie, whilst others are loudly proclaim* : i.ij. that a straight out Democratic .jle Hiination must be made or they will k . p;t abide its action. Extremes are always to be avoided. The Radical . jjirty has been in power for nearly tv Ive years, and several States will „ „ v«te in November which were declared P- oui. of the Union at the last Presides tiD election. It is a crisis of great peril to the party. The time has not It- ar : ved it mat be for the party to en r'ti r the contest. Seymour and Blair s * w ,10 sigtfally defeated in 1868 and it is proper for the, leaders to maturely Consider tip question whether the in terest of tne party would not be ina \ terially injured by another defeat. If a nomination is not made at Baltimore the question will be presented, what ■ si,all the Democratic party do? We are of the opinion that no nomination ! 'will bo made. In that event we trust that all friends ot good government everywhere, North, South East and West, will rally to Greeley and Brown. We cannot better express ourselves s rtti this subject than by copying the following from that interesting, live journal, the Macon Daily Enterprise: * OL’K TICKET. With the hope that the Convention will do tlje best they can, and if nec essary nominate Greeley and Brown, but if possible, nominate a straight out-and-out Democratic ticket, we hoist the following as our ticket-: FOR PRESIDENT: THK NOMINEE Or THE BALTIMORE CON VENTION. | FOR VICE PRESIDENT: gk. DITTO, yfci We bare had enough of General --Grant and his 80,WO, office hol v rtftrs. The condition of the country demands a change. Incompeteney arid corruption have marked his ad milustration tints far. lie has proved himself to be a mere tool in the hands of the Radical party. If we are not to have a Democratic nominee let us raliv as one man to the nominees of the Cincinnati Convention. The great and important interest of our whole country demands “anew cut, shuttle and deal,” and it behooves every pa triot now to lay asitlp ’personal and party predelections and do all in his power to prevent the re-election of IJ. S. Grant. Mr. Editor: Permit me to announce through the Advertiser to the visiting schools and public generally, a part of the programme of the celebration and pic nic of the 4th July at Trion Ga. AU visiting schools will please meet (if practicable) the schools of Trion at Trion Church Thursday morning at 8J o’clock, when the programme of the day will be fully announced. We want a procession formed at the church of the Sunday Schools and marched to the speaker's stand at Penn’s Chapel, one-half mile from Trion. Rev. A. J. Lect will deliver an ad dress in the forenoon and Rov. D. K. Mooreland ir. the afternoon. AH provisions carried for the occa sion will be delivered at Penn’s Chap pel church to N. 11. Coker and com mittee, who will take them in charge. We would suggest that persons mark their name on a card and attach it to their baskets that they may he able to locate them when palled for. - Respectfully. M. If. Edwards, j [ Awnmnnicated. Masonic Celebration at Subligna Mount Hickory Lodge, No. 133. Mr. Editor : I As matter of local interest, permit I me to state, that the Anniversary of St. John’s, the 24th inst.. was cele brated at Subligna. this county.— Notwithstanding' the prevalence of continued showers of rain, there «*■ tumbled a very large number of the Masonic Fraternity, and still a much • larger number of the good people from all the surrounding country, both from Chattooga and 1\ alker counties, with a very respectable rep resentation from Floyd. The assets * Llr filled to overflowing the very spa cious church, whilst many, very many, w-'re compelled to remain outside. The Deputy Grand Master, the lion. J. I. Wright of tßouie. whose great reputation as an orator, and still greater reputation as a man and u Mason doubtless brought cut so large a crowd, had been expected to deliver the address. But indisposi tion prevented, and according to re quest, Rev. Dr. Harris, of Floyd, who wn> present, delivered an impromptu. address, much to the satisfaction of the as-embled multitude. Ho spoke about 35 Minnies, in an uninterrupted THE CHATTOOGA ADVERTISER; SUMERVILLE, GA., JUNE 28, 1872. spontaneous outflow of unadorned but masterly advocacy of the benefits of Masonry; interspersing, here and there’ pleasing and appropriate sallies of witiebin, which called forth merited applause, suppressed, however, on ac count of the sacredness of the sur roundings. At tne close of bis vjjfech, Dr. Mitchell, the presiding officer ol the occasion, who, I believe, is the W. M. of the Lodge in Rome, was loudly called upon, but as modestly declined. Rev. Z. D. Cottrell, Principal of For est Grove Male and Female High School, near Subligna, was then call ed upon, and, in response, made his appearance upon the stand, and, for 20 or 30 minutes, spoke with his usual zeal, in experimental testimony of the excellence of the order. Af ter the ceremonies were over, the vast multitude partook of the bountiful re past that was spread out by the fair hands of the ladies. The utmost or der and decorum was preserved through out the occasion. Thus passed the day, which will long he rememhere by all present. In casting my eye over the multi tude, I was struck with the large num ber, beautiful forms and faces of the “sweet sixteens,” and perhaps a like number of the sterner sex of equal age. Well enough, methought, to educate such, as to the objects and aims of the mystical order. Well enough to let them behold their fath ers, and uncles, and brothers, arranged under the banner of Faith, Hope, and Charity. Both speakers told the grand secret of the order, to wit : “To do good to the human family.” Nous’Vekronh. Mr. Editor : It may be of interest to your read ers to have a few lines from McLc' mores Cove, in Walker county. 1 had the pleasure of making a visit a short time since to that noted section, of which I had heard so much. I doubt if there are better lands in North Georgia. You would be strik ingly reminded of your native State, Virginia. I had a good opportunity to judge of the character of the peo ple, and from tho large and intelli gent congregation that assembled ori the holy Sabbath to hear the preach ing of tho Word, I should say they are fully up with the times. Asa gen eral rule the people aro a good crite rion to judge of a- country. Their principal productions are corn and wheat, of which they grow aiiffj abundance whon the seasons are fair j orahle. The wheat is very fine this year as to quality, and also as to i quantity —except here and there the! want of a good stand. They had suf fered greatly for rain until a week ago, in consequence their corn was not looking so well; but if seasonable from this on tho yield will bo very fine. You ought, to have at least 100 sub scribers up there, and I think with proper effort they.can be had. The survey of the Lookout Moun tain Railroad runs a. .>ss the Cove, and if built will be a great source of benefit to the country. Yours truly, Summerville. Mr. Editor: With your permission, I will pay my respects to Judge Hill. I asked no questions of Judge Hill, I made no remark reflecting on Judge Hill’s charade, official or ‘private; hut as Judge Hill asks questions 1 will an swer frankly s I am a Democrat,“dyed in the wool, have' voted the Demo cratic ticket invariably, and intend to vote it as long as l vote, or it can be found. 1 pay tax, State, county and poll. ‘M y articles are not political. Mv neighbors believe, and I believe, that our taxes, State and county, are too high. 1 asked for a statement of receipts and expenditures that we might satisfy ourselves as to the just ness of our complaints. It taxes are too high we want them brought down, if not too high we cease to “growl.’ Judge Hill volunteers an article ac companying the Treasurer’s report 'acknowledging that I “hat> drawn* the tabular statement from him against his will, manifesting a degree o. irri tability and vexation that does not , speak well for his official conduct) It j Judge Hill can answer all Tax Pay er’s questions to the satisfaction of any reasonable man privately, whv not answer to the satisfaction of all reasonable men pub.inly j\\ ill Judge j I Hill tell the people whyY There must j I be some other reason than a mere un- j I willingness to crowd the columns of a j newspaper. Hill’s article was longer j than the tabular statement. Moved by compassion, Judge llill, the people of Chattooga elevated you to a posi tion of honor, trust and profit.kJTiey | indulged you in your mistakes, cor rected vour errors, advised, admon ished, rebuked.' hoping that a little experience tvotrid enable you to dis charge the duties of your office to the satisfaction of your friends. The tabular statement is vague and indefi nite, and cannot satisfy any thinking f rnan. Large amounts of money have j been paid out, but for what no man j can tell from the Treasurer’s report. You order §723 for jury tickets and ! Bailiff's certificates. Fall term of the court, full puunel.~4B jurors, six days | §I,OO per day, §2BB. ' Watkins term J 12 jurors, one day, §l2. Spring term, i47 jurors, 8 days, §1,50 per day. *211,50. Total. §511,50. Leaving §211,50 for the Bailiff's. If I am 1 correct in mv calculation the Bailiffs ■ office pays well. Vail term, six Bai ! hffs, 886. Spring term, five Bailiffs. §22,50. Watkins term, say 3 Bai i lib,sß. Total, §61,50.

Carrying the returns to town, §3,00, Total §7->,OO. Allowing §75.00 foi ; Trion leaves §1,62 for Summerville. If your order is correct there is a | false impression in the county which j should be c irrected. You have paid j the Jailor large amounts of money, j but whether too much or ton little no i man can toll from your order. No items are given.? Itemize your orders; | itemize ami attest your account a i gainst the county for extra services, j so that we can see whether or not we • “growl" justly of high taxes. You I boast that you have received vour $55 fur extra services. Now snow the people that you have fairly earned it. A poor, needy soldier, who lost his eyes in the same cause in which you lost your leg must wait for his little donation of S3SJ lam one of the masses Judge Hill, I talk with the masses and know something of their feelings, desires and opinions. I know I am in sympathy with some, large and influential tax payers,in this coun ty. I have not heard a man express himself satisfied with the tabular statement. Is there any money de rived from the tent of the rooms of the Courthouse? Where are the fines and forfeitures? Fines have been col lected from defaulting road bands in this section. Ought it not to appear in the Treat-furor's "report? If it has been paid in where is it? This is no* politics Judge Hill. (An old friend, who is a large tax payer and a life long Democrat, remarked to me re cently that he bad held county offices hut had never taken §1 extra pay in his life; that he did not believe it was right; and that he had no doubt there were fifty competent men in this coun ty who would gladly take the Ordina ry’s and Clerk's offices for their regu lar foes. I am not alone fn my-de sire to see a ejear “account of your stewat'tship.” We like to see the col umns of our paper “crowded” with useful information. Will you, can you, dare you refuse to the people the information they ask of their public servant ? I want no controversy with you nor any other tnan. Ido want a plain answer to my questions. Ex plain your orders, and show the peo ple thni you have exercised good economy in the disbursement of their money, and l doubt not they will be satisfied. The people have trusted' you, now trust them with a clear ac count of your administration, from first to last. A full catalogue of all your orders from first to last would (lease tax payers. Will you give it? f you think am alone in my views put your ear in the current of public rumor and you will learn. If I.aijg wrong 1 am honestly wrong. Yours, Ac. Tax Payer. . The Tax Bill The following are the most impor tant features of this bill, which was passed by both houses of Congress on Tuesday, and which will certainly be, if it has not al eady been, signed by the President; The tax on spirits is fixd at 70 cents per gallon, and distillers are re lieved from special tax and the tax of §4 per barrel, wholesale and retail dealers from the tax on sales ami rectifiers from the tax of 50 cents on each barrel produced in excess of 200 barrels. The tax on tobacco is fixed at 20 cents per pound uniform. The time for taking tobacco from bonded ware house is to be six mouths. All stamp taxes are repealed ex cept two cents on bank checks, drafts and orders. The provisos authoriz ing reimbursement of match manufact urers on account of unused stamps or stamped paper, and authorizing the immediate exportation, unstamped, of articles in schedule C, are stricken out. —Savahn News Bth. The words “capital employed” shall not include money borrowed or re oieved from day to day in the usual course of business, from any person not a partner of or interested in the said bank, association or firm. The internal revenue districts are j reduced to eighty, and proceedings! for recovery of illegally collected in-! tenon 1 taxes will be commenced with- j in two years from the date of pay- i ment, or a year from the passage of the act. A witness under cross-examination who had been tortured by a lawyer for several hours, at last asked for a glass of water. “There,” said the Judge, “1 think you’d better let that witness go now as you have pumped him dry. This Is the way they call out the figure of a reel in Arkansas: “Dance to the gal with the yellow shawl; now down outside and up in the middle ; turn’or to your partner, Isaac Sroath, and now to that entire stranger; sachez to the right and left: ra de fan, dude : now to Peter Schwitchall’s daughter ; turn to your partner, every one; set to the girl with a flaring frill; balance one and spin about to the girl with a hole in the heel of her stock ing. ■ “Bio Talk.”—“Who,” says the Saturday Review, “can enjoy a chat with a man who always talks of wo- men as females, and of a man as an individual ; with whom things are nev er like, but similar; who never be j g' ns a thing, b»t always commences it; who does not .choose, but elects; . who does not help, but facilitates; 1 who does not supply, but caters; nor j buy, but alway purchases; who calls j a beggar a mendicant; wjth whom a j servant is always a domestic, where ■be is not a menial: who does not say : anything, but scales it; a,d does nos 1 end, but terminates it : who calls a ! house a residence, at which lie does I riot live, but resides; with whom 1 I a place is a locality, and things do j not happen, but transpire.” The New York Times, in-its issue ! yesterday, shows the public what a 1 j charming place the great metroplis ! must be to five in. It is doubtful 1 | whether any other city in the world j ! could present such record of one day’s j | crime as the following: “Sunday, in this city, still main- i tains its bad pre-eminence as a day of drunkenness, and of the crimes and offences that come from drunkenness. The list for yesterday is terribly long, and includes every varitey of stang. up and knock-down fight, shooting, stabbing, wTe beating, and street row dyism. Most of these crimes are at tributable to the looseness of the ex cise law, and the negligent way iri which it is enforced. The streets of New York on Sunday night are in a condition alarming to peaceful citi zens, and disgraceful to the authori- j ties.” SUMMERVILLE LODGE, F. A A. M. No. 109.
