CONSTITUTIONALIST.
AUGUSTA, GA.
FRIDAY MORNING. DEC. 13, 1867
A PACKED JURY.
In his recent message, President Johnson
admits that Congress has committed
usurpation in its plan of reconstruction.
Having admitted thus much, lie adroitly
shifts all responsibility of interference from
his own shoulders to those of the insulted
and oppressed territories, lie shirks this
great duty by declaring that the Courts are
open, and appeals should be made to them
for redress. This kind of palliation sounds
Tery well in an elaborate State paper, but
will deceive no one acquainted with the
fallen estate of the Supreme Bench and its
co-ordinate branches. This Japanese bal
ancing of nice phrases and special pleading
may do very well for party jugglery, but it
is disgraceful in a man who claims to be
the defender of the Constitution. Mr.
Johnson had it in his power to help us, if
he had only possessed the requisite courage.
The choice o: military commanders was
his ; why did he select the most obnoxious
characters ? Having selected them, why
■were they continued in authority until
irreparable damage was done ? The crumbs
thrown by Hancock to the people of
Louisiana are just as palatable as those
hungered tor by Lazarus ; they are the
sweepings of the feast after the feasters
have filled their bellies and pockets at the
expense of their betters. The dirty work
of Congress was completed prior to the
arrival of Hancock, and the President took
care, seemingly, that it should lie done be
fore giving Sheridan liis passport.
The man Pope, who lords it over Georgia,
has been playing into the hands of his mas
ters and their negro allies from the very
beginning of his career. And yet, he holds
sway without rebuke. He and his fellows
have determined upon pushing the Congress
ional usurpation through, in spite of the
mockery of voting. Had the President ap-j
pointed a man of any justice or impartiality;
in this district, we might have helped him
effectually iu his contest with Congress.
But he did not do'this; and when the man
has proved himself a tool of the President’s
enemies, he is still suffered to conspire and
abuse. As matters are managed by Pope
and his myrmidoms, it is simply impossible
for the Southern whites to defend them
selves at the ballot box against their mon-
grel antagonists who have the Congress,
and the Bayonet directly assisting them,
and, indirectly, the President himself.
Means will always be found to figure out a
result in favor of the Southern Radicals, no
matter how the figures or the vote may
Stand. The c mse of Southern apathy is
.found in the ever-abiding knowledge that
the jury is packed against us ; and the men
Who packed it are Pro sidential appointees.
It may be urged in Executive extenuation
that no better generals could have been se
lected in place of Pope & (Jo. 11 so God help
the country, for West Point has sunk very
far in the mire, since its chief pride
is the degradation of white men and
the elevation of the negro on the point
of its sword. With Pope and his busy
bees no contest is doubtful since everything
is pre-arranged. If Mr. Johnson can dis
cover an impartial commander and just
judges of election precincts, he may accom
plish something to brag about. Failing to
do this, he has only one apology, viz; that
the renowned captains of the U. 8. A. are
all martinets or negro-worshipers, and so,
one bad eggjs as-foul as another. Luckily,
the outrage! practiced upon us are fast
drifting beyond Mr. Johnson and his
Courts. Before many years have elapsed,
short work will be made of despotism, or
despotism will have to make short work of
Conservatism, North and South.
The “ National Honor.” —In the mat
ter of the bonded debt, which enriches New
England at the expense of the balance of
the country, the Yankees are vociferous
about what they call the “ national honor.”
The New York Jlay Book thinks Washing
ton & Cos. in 1776 quite as virtuous as their
descendants in 1867; and yet our patriot
fathers issued $375,000,000 of paper, which
the nation pledged itself to redeem in coin,
ami repudiated $350,000,000 of it. The
Government borrowed millions of money
from the revolutionary patriots, Robert
Morris and others, whose claims have re
mained unpaid up to this time. It allowed,
not ten years ago, one of its creditors, to
the extent of hundreds of thousands, to be
arrested for debt in Washington and die in
jail there.
An Irresistible Appeal. Senator
Wilson, one year ago, abolished the pres
ence of liquor venders within the walls of
the Capitol. Representative Sc iilnce now
appeals for the sale of beer and malt li
quors, in the vacant place of Capitoline
whiskey. To make his motion invincible,
he assures his fellow-Solons that the malt
liquor man for whom he pleads is of tlie
true black hue—
From Africa tlie negro came,
Arise, O Congress, bless his name,
For him we beg, for him we cheer,
That colored cuss that sells the beer.
The Cause of Butler’s Squint. —The
Newark Journal has made a curious dis
covery with regard to the Beast. Hear this:
“The medical savans in Paris are all agog
about Hypnotism, anew anaesthetic process.
It consists in placing a brilliant object before
the patient’s eyes, close enough to make him
squint, and letting him look at it until lie falls
into a deep sleep, resembling catalepsy, during
which a surgical operation may be performed.
“ We wonder if this is not the process by
which Butler was made to squint £0 horribly?
They held those silver spoons at New Orleans
too close to his optics. Certain it is, he has
been insensible to pain or shame, ever since."
Moral Massachusetts.— Mr. Josiau
Quincy declares “ that the railroad ‘ mo
nopolies ’ have bribed, suborned, and re
tained on their own side pretty much all
the legislatures, newspapers and leading
lawyers in the country.”
The Boston Post says: “ Crime is terribly
prevalent in New England. Every few days
our staid cities and quiet towns are star
tled by some deed of blood, some revelation
of beastliness or of rascality. Our South
ern brethren, living i u the midst ‘of an
archy and turmoil,’ might with reason
sneer at the morality of New England as
shown in its daily reports of crime.”
Skunk to the Skunks.— The Congress
ional Committee had a meeting, some days
since. Among other thing - the delectable
Schenck suggested that “ parties be sent
down South to see that the Conventions
adopted the right kind of Constitutions.”
He likewise “ acknowledged indebtedness
for much information to* the Freedmen’s
Bureau and the Methodist and Baptist
Churches.” We, of course, presume that
the churches aforesaid are of the negro per
suasion.
Last Words.—lt is customary for bi
ographers to make their heroes die with the
utterance of some sonorous expression. Mr.
Rose stated that Wm. Pitt exclaimed in
his last moment, “Save my country, heav
en !” Pitt’s nurse swore that he asked for
a basin of gruel. We are reminded of this
anecdote by a detailed account of Fitz
Greene Halleck’s final scene. The wri
ter of Marco Bozzaris finished his earthly
course with a common-place, viz.: “ Hand
me my pantaloons, Mary /”
Got llrs Forty Acres.— Uncle Billy
Simons, of Anson county, N. C., voted the
Conservative ticket. He is a negro and
had to contend with the Loyal Leagues.
The planters of Anson county have ar
ranged to give him forty acres of the best
laud there or thereabout.
The Cotton Tax.— The Radical party
imposed the cotton tax, and were duly
praised for its imposition. Having almost
destroyed the culture of cotton thereby,
they now repeal the tax—and are duly
praised for the same. It was easy to annihi
late cotton iu the South ; it will be difficult
to resurrect it.
The White Man’s Platform.— ln the
early stages of reconstruction, the Rich
mond Whir/ lavored a co-operative policy
to embrace whites and blacks. It subse
quently became disgusted with its own
phantom, and now comes out plump and
square against negro sufl'rage in any shape
or form.
Striking in the Dark.— Bob Flynn, a
negro blacksmith of Franklin, Ivy., lately
sent his bill to Washington for $41)7 50,
for Government work iu the war. The
Quartermaster General, not knowing he
was a negro, sent it back, endorsed “Dis
allowed, on accout of disloyally."
A Funny Comparison.— “ Dr. Bayne,”
a negro delegate to the Virginia Bones and
Banjo Convention, is very black and wears
an immense white cravat. One of the re
porters described him as a tar baby in a
cream pot.
Greeley on Tiiaddeus. —Speaking of
finance, Greeley alludes to Stevens’ let
ler as the “ exhibition of a bad old man’s
rascality.”
[For the Constitulionalist.
Insurance.
Mr. Editor : Your correspondent “ U.”
moves in the right direction. Two hundred
thousand dollars 'of premiums in one year
paid by this city is capital sufficient to es
tablish one of the best companies in this
country. When that amount is paid to
foreign companies it is an entire loss to us.
Strangers to this Commonwealth have
already damaged us enough. Let that sum
be retained and thereby add so much to our
much needed banking capital.
Already the risks taken in foreign com
panies, especially those of recent organiza
tion, are hazardous, if not extra hazardous
to» policy holders—see the accounts of re
cent, failures in Northern cities of these very
companies.
The object to be attained by business men
in Augusta, then, is a company in which
they shall have all the interest, all the
money, all the profits, all the losses and all
the management.
The Legislature of Georgia have granted
charters which are now here and ready to
be used. One of them is the very best that
could be desired—liberal, safe and just in
all its provisions.
If these views are correct it only needs a
conference of merchants and concert of
action to accomplish all these results.
When shall a consultation be had V
Merchant.
1 From the London Times, November 2«.
The Italo-Roman Question.
FEAR OF REVOLUTION AND DIFFICULTIES OF
THE GREAT POWERS.
* * * The French have taken umbrage
at those Words m the Queen’s speech in
which hopes were expressed that the French
occupation of Rome might not be indell
nitely prolonged ; and they seem indignant
at “ tlie objections toreign States dare to
raise against the exercise of France’s legiti
mate influence.” The fact is, however, that
the Emperor must be as eager to be out of
Rome as any one can be to see him out.
The Roman question, it has been said, can
only be solved cither by the extinction of
the Papal Power or by tlie disruption of
the Italian Kingdom. But there is some
danger of the latter consummation being
inevitable, if that most arduous solution is
even postponed. The elements of general
dissolution are everywhere at work in the
Peninsula. Were General Menabrea to
meet Parliament without something to
show in return for all the snubbing and
buHying and, what. is so much harder to
bear, the patting on the back he lias had to
submit to, his place would not be worth a
week’s purchase. In lus rear are Ratazzi,
and misgovernment, with tlie sure prospect
of no government. Should the Bourbon or
the Murat, faction gain the upper hand in
Naples, should the priests and brigands
prevail in Sicily, should Piedmont hoist her
municipal colors and Mazzini proclaim the
republic at Milan, the Emperor might have
more thrown on his hands than all his
energies would be equal to. To restore
order in Borne may have been an easy
achievement; but to bring to reason live
and-twcuty millions ot revolutionized
Italians would be an Atlantean task. This
task, however, would devolve upon the
Emperor alone, not so much for Italy’s sake
as for his own ; and the complications which
would arise before him woul<4 be manifold.
He could not allow the revolution to run
riot in the Italian kingdom without endan
gering public security in his own empire ;
he could not master the revolution in Italy
without taking a more or less permanent
hold of tlie country ; and lie could not
efl'ect a durable settlement in the Peninsula
without rousing strong jealousies among
his neighbors, and alarming them with the
prospect ot' st ruggles reproducing the worst
times of the First Empire.
It is on (his ground mainly, if not exclu
sively, that these Roman affairs have a di
rect and deep interest for ourselves. Some
of us may entertain strong sympathies for
Italy, others may not be indifferent to the
cause of the Pope; but what is matter of
consequence to all of us is the European
peace, and there would lie nothing more
likely to endanger it than any increase of
the present Italian complications. When
towards tiie close of last year we saw the
Austrians recrossing the Alps, almost at
the same time as the French embarked for
Toulon, Europe bad reason to rejoice, for it
seemed as if Italy, which had for three or
four hundred years been the apple of dis
cord among nations, would be at last able
to take care of herself. The occupation of
the Papal States by the French, or even the
unsettled state of the Roman question,
leading periodically to a reoccupation, is a
perpetual source of danger. The French
man cannot set his foot on Italian ground
without, awakening the German’s jealousy.
It is not years, but only months, since the
Germans, even the Northerners, even the
Prussians maintained that the “ natural
frontiers ” of their country lay in the heart
of Lombardy, on the Po, the Adige and the
Mincio, and that the loss of the Quadrilat
eral by Austria was a common calamity to
the whole Fatherland. So long as those
fortresses arc only in Italian hands—in
those hands in which the victory of Sadowa
placed them—the Germans have no cause
for uneasiness; but tlie claims of the French,
keepers of the peace in the Peninsula,
might, ..Umit of a very loose construction,
and little wouia our gain if by their ef
forts to put down the revolution in Italy
they ran the risk of rekindling war in
Europe. It seems evident, however, that
the Emperor, aware of these jealousies, is
anxious to retrace the step he has taken.
He hopes a conference will relieve him of a
burden of responsibility which begins to
weigh intolerably on himself, and if the
conference turn out a failure, we trust he
may come to the conclusion that the main
tenance of the temporal power, which he
is unable to induce all the Powers of Eu
rope to undertake, is a task too difficult and
too dangerous for himself.
Third Day’s Proceedings of the Georgia Un
constitutional Convention.
REPORTED FOR THE CONSTITUTIONALIST.
Atlanta, Ga., Dec. 11, 1867.
Convention met at 10, a. m., and was opened
with prayer by the Rev. Mr. Prettymau. The
Journal was then read.
Posey Maddox rose to a personal oration.—
Walking down the street yesterday he had
heard somebody say Brown and Hulbert and
all the registrars had voted against Mr. Sbeibley
for Secretary. He understood the remark to
be levelled at him, he having been a registrar,
and wished some measure adopted to obviate
sich reflections. Decided out of order.
The roll was called.
Wm. H. Noble, negro, said his name had not
been called.
After some desultory discussion, the conven
tion decided, by a vote of 78 to 36, to go into
an election for Sergeant-at-Arms, Doorkeeper,
and Messenger.
The vote stood, for Martin J. Hinton, 80 votes;
Barton 8. Pringle, 16; T. O’Keefe, 38; James
Campbell, 5; and M. J. Ilinton, white, was de
clared elected Sergeanl-at-Anns.
J. T. Costin, negro, said the colored people
had been very liberal about the offices, but now
the balance of the spoils belonged to them, and
he would nominate Wm. 11. DeLyons.
T. P. Saffold nominated Wm. Atkins. Fif
teen other candidates were nominated and on
the first ballot no election was had, none of the
candidates having a majority.
Aaron Bradley, negro, moved that as DeLyons
had very nearly a majority, OS out of 144, he be
declared elected. Motion lost, and the con
vention proceeded to another ballot, with (lie
following result : 144 votes east ; DeLyons, 70;
Atkins, 67 ; so Wm. 11. DeLyons, negro, was
declared elected Doorkeeper. ♦
Au election lor Messenger was then had, with
the following result : Votes cast, 149. For
Campbell, 79 ; Brewster, 50 ; Wyou, 7 ; Mun
day, 8 ; Morse, 5. So Campbell, a son of T. G.
Campbell, negro, a delegate, was declared
elected Messenger.
J. E. Blount offered a resolution that a com
mittee of three be appointed to draft rules of
order for the convention and have them printed,
with the names of delegates.
U. B. Bu'lock offered a resolution that, a com
mittee of seven be appointed to wait on Gen.
Pope, apprise him that the convention was or
ganized, and invite him to be present.
C. 11. Hopkins moved that the rules of order
governing the Georgia Convention of 1805 be
adopted. Lost.
Aaron Bradley, uegro, moved that the rules
of order governing the lower house of the
Legislature of Massachusetts in 1858 (laughter)
be adopted. Lost by almost unanimous vote,
and amid applause.
U. B. Bullock renewed his resolution, which
is as follows:
Resolved, That a committee of seven he ap
pointed by the Chair to wait 011 General Pope,
commanding the third military district, and in
form him that, in obedience to General Orders,
No. 89, this convention is now assembled and
organized, and to invite his presence in the
convention at his pleasure.
Adopted with “obedience” changed to
“ compliance.”
A. T. Akerman offered the following resolu
tion :
Resolved, That in view of the afflicted con
dition of the people of Georgia, especially of
the agricultural and laboring classes, which is
greatly aggravated by the recent depression in
the price of our principal export, this conven
tion does respectful!}’, but most earnestly, re
quest t v e Congress of the United States, as a
measure of policy, conciliation, justice and
humanity, to repeal the special tax on cotton,
the repeal to operate ou the crop of the year
1867.
Resolved, That the President of tlio conven
tion he directed to transmit copies of tiiese
resolutions to the President of the Senate and
the Speaker of the House of Representatives of
the United States, with a request that they be
presented to those bodies.
C. C. Richardson moved to lay the resolution
on the table, and the convention so ordered.
J. L. Dunning offered a resolution that seats
lie given all bona fide reporters lor the press as
long as they did not misrepresent the members
or the action of the convention. This reso
lution was introduced as a substitute tor gome
others to the same general effect, and was
adopted.
J. L. Dunning offered another resolution, that
the Secretary be authorized to telegraph to
“the Provisional Governor of Georgia” for two
hundred copies of the proceedings of the con
vent ion of 1865. Amended so as to read if
such copies could he found. Adopted.
C. 11. Hopkins offered a resolution that Gen
erals Pope and Sibley, and their respective
staffs, and ail registering officers, lie invited to
seats upon the floor.
Aaron Bradley, negro, moved to strike out
all about the registers. Some of them were
not fit to come into the hall of the convention.
They had prevented “ us ’’—the negroes—from
voting. Some of them were rank Democrats—
everything that’s bad ! and some ol them were
black men at that. [Laughter.] Adopted.
The resolution was further muunded to in
elude Registrar General Hnlbert aTKi stuff, and
GovorntM% anti ox-Govcrnors of Georgia, and
adopted.
A motion that Rev. Mr. Prettyinan be elected
Chaplain of the convention by acclamation was
lost.
J. T. Costin, negro, offered a resolution that
the Secretary furnish the convention with wa
ter. [Laughter.]
Aaron Bradley, negro, moved to amend by
inserting messenger instead of Secretary. Car
ried.
Pending a discussion on the election of a
chaplain, the convention adjourned to 10, a. in.,
to-iuorrow.
After adjournment, the committee to wait on
Gen. Pope was announced as it. B. Bullock, G.
W. Ashburu, H. M. Turner, (negro) 11. V. M.
Miller, Trammel J. Whitely, and ,1. T. Coslin
(negro).
The committee on rules of order, J. E.
Blount, Jas. I). Waddell and 11. it. MeCay.
The London Times copies the following from
the London Weekly Register of the 2nd ultimo:
To Scotland be!ones the honor of sending
from the United Kingdom the first body of men
as volunteers for the army of his Holiness dur
ing the present war against the See of Peter.
Fifty Highlanders, commanded by Major Gor
don (formdrly major in one of our Highland
regiments), passed through London on Monday
last, and are by this time near the Holy City.
A finer set ofyoung fellows it has rarely been
our lot to see. Forty-seven of the number
were upwards of six feet high ; the youngest
of them appeared to be about twenty, the old
est not more than twenty eight. They are all
Catholics and of various ranks in life, but most
ly the sons of farmers in the Western Highlands.
They are accompanied by their leader, who will
take service under his Holiness, and by a priest
from their own country. The whole affair has
been quietly, but exceedingly well managed,
and we hope the example thus set will soon be
lollowed by English as well as Irish Catholics.
Fif(y-fivc dollars will be the fare from Oma
ha to Cheyenne. The rails of the Omaha
branch of the Pacific road were welcomed to
Cheyenue on the 13th ultimo by the, entire
population. The Cheyenne Argus of the 14tli
thus describes the incident :
Yesterday afternoon wc went out, with every
body else in Cheyenne, to bring in the track,
and we brought it. We walked out to the
curve, about a mile from town, at about 4
o’clock, where we met the track layers, and in
less than au hour were at the freight depot.—
The speed with which the rails were laid was
astonishing to all who witnessed it, even the
bay horse which hauled the “ bar ” truck from
the construction train, on before tlie men with
mauls and spikes, seemed imbued with the
same spirit of determination to have the track
laid to Cheyenne before sunset, as was exhibit
ed by every man employed on the track, and
the people of Cheyenne, who walked, men,
women and children, miles out along grade to
meet the long looked lor rails.
Colds in the Head.— The recent change in
the weather has produced many “ bad colds ”
in the head. A celebrated physician of France
has discovered anew method of curing this
prevailing malady. Here is the prescription :
It consists in mhaiing through the nose the
emanations of ammonia contained in a smell
ing bottle. If the sense of smell is completely
obliterated the bottle should be kept under the
nose nutil the pungency of the volatile alkali
is felt. The bottle is then removed, but only to
be applied after a minute; the second applica
tion, however, should not be long, that the pa
tient may bear it. This easy operation being
repeated seven or eight times in the course of
five minutes, but always very rapidly, except
the first time, the nostrils become free, the
sense of smell is restored, aud the secretion of
the irritatiug mucus is stopped. The remedy
is said to be particularly advantageous to sing
e j s.
Jeff. Davis and tiie Catholics.—Jeffer
son Davis attended the Catholic Orphan’s Fair
at Richmond, Thursday evening, and was for
mally presented with a splendid musical box.
In reply, Mr. Davis said : “ I thank you and the
ladies and gentlemen for your kindness, and
will place this with the gold-headed cane pre
sented to me by the Catholic ladies of Norfolk
who held a fair for a charitable purpose last
spring. Your kindness will not be forgotten.
Tbe Catholics have always been my friends, and
1 cannot forget the circumstance that the Holy
Father, the head of your church, was the first
sovereign who sent his blessings in my misfor
tune. May God bless you all.”

SPECTACLES EXCLUSIVELY,
1 Equal I ZED with exactitude in foci and sci
\entiiically adjusted to each individual case, WHEN
FREE FROM ORGANIC DISEASE. I claim to
be competent, after twenty years study of Oculism as
well as Optics, to detect diseased vision ; and many
know that I have refused to sell to such Spectacles,
and relerred those thus afflicted to PRACTICING
OCULISTS FOR TREATMENT. My business is
the prescription of PERFECT lenses, in exact com
pensation Optically for HEALTHY EYES, Myopic
or Presbyopic. The VALUE of my services only
the intelligent can perceive. The masses of the peo
ple have been accustomed to purchase Spectacles
ANYWHERE OBTAINABLE to the irrecoverable
impairment of vision, the CHIEF OF BLESSINGS.
So, thousands destroy health by medicine, without
judicious prescriptions. Alas I BOTH learn wisdom,
but TOO LATE. I have been working to EDU
CATE the people into these knowledges ; a thank
less task, but I have done SOME good, and am still
willing to do more for all who can see this great need
and appreciate my efforts for the public weal.

PURIFY YOUR BLOOD!
Hurley’s Sarsaparilla.
Os all the medicines that have been discovered dur
ing the present ago for the “ thousand ills tiiat flesh is
heir to,” none equal this wonderlu preparation. Only
ten years have elapsed since the discoverer (who spent
a decade in studying experiments, and prelecting it)
first Introduced it to the public, and it is already re
cognized by the most eminent physicians in all parts
of the country, to be the most surprising and effective
remedy for certain diseases ot which they have any
knowledge.
All other Compounds or Syrups of this root have
hitherto failed to command the sanction of ll.e Facul
ty, because on being tested, they have been found to
contain noxious ingredients, which neutralize (he good
effects of the Sarsaparilla, and oftentimes injure ihe
health of the patient. It is not so until HURLEY’S
preparation.
This is the pure and genuine extract, of the root, and
and will, on trial, he found to effect a certain and per
fect cure of the following complaints and diseases:
Affections of the Bones, Habitual Costiveness,
Debility, Diseases of the Kidneys, Dyspep
sia, Eryscpilas, Female Irreytilan
ilics, Fistula, all Skin Diseases,
Liver Complaint, Indiges
tion, Piles, Pulmonary
Diseases. Syphilis,
Scrofula or
Kin g ' s
Evil.
HURLEY'S AGUE TONIC.
PERFECTLY RELIABLE.
The on'y remedy for Chills and Fever or Ague and
Fever that is or can be depended upon is Hurley’s
Ague Tonic. There have been thousands cured by
using it who had tried the usual remedies without
benefit; hut in no case UaS
Hurley’s Aytie Tonic
failed to effect a cure. All who have used it
cheerfully tell their afflicted friends ol it, as a sure and
certain cure for chills and fever. Any one suffering
from the chills would consult their own interest by
sending to a drug store ami buying a bottle. It is
pleasant to take, compared with others, and will he
certain to cure ail cases of fever and ague or chills and
fever. Send for it to the proprietors,
