AUGUSTA, GhA.
SLNDAY MORNING, JAN. 12,1868.
DESIGNS OF RADICALISM.
The following article, from Deßow's Be
vieu>, is a masterly exposure of the Ityilicu
scheme. On some minor points, we might
take issue with the writer; bnt, in the
main, his views are sound and irresistible :
“ Many persons seem to think that the
only object of the leaders and managers of
the Radical party is to retain political pow
er for the sake of holding the State and
Federal offices. This may be true as to
some, yet there is a deeper signiflcauce in
their movements and plans than is iiere sup
posed, as will be attempted to be shown in
the following article:
“ Parties, as well as men, are to be judged
by their actions more than by their mere
declarations. We can ascertain the pur
poses of men and find out their motives
more by their deeds than by their words.
The whole legislation of Congress for the
last two years, which has been under the
guidance and direction of the New England
Radicals, shows the deliberate purpose,
skillfully planned, but artfully concealed,
of Africanizing the extreme Southern or
Gulf States. This is no new idea with
them, but one of many years standing
Long before the recent war Mr. Sumner,
who is the best representative of New Eng
land Radicalism, declared that their object
was to encircle the slave States with a belt
of free States, in order that ‘slavery, like
a scorpion girt with fire, might sting itself
to death.’ His policy was to confine
the institution of slavery witiii n its then
limits, not permitting it to go to any of
the new States or Territories, and at
the same time to make it insecure in
the border States, as they were called, by
hostile legislation, in order that all the
slaves might he carried to the extreme
Southern States, where slavery was more
profitable. This collecting of all the slaves
in the Gulf States would, with their natu
ral increase, have given, in ten or fifteen
years, a black population in them of not
less than six millions. In this way, when
emancipation should take place, it would
leave the blacks in a much greater prepon
derance than they even now arc. The New
England Radicals did not, at that time,
either expect or desire the immediate aboli
tion of slavery, but wished an accumula
tion of blacks in the Gulf States, before this
should occur. The war, however, came on
and caused the immediate abolition of
slavery, as a necessity in order to secure
success. In this respect, their well laid
plans were disconcerted, but they did not
falter in their purposes. Their object ever
since has been to place the Southern States
in such a condition that the white people,
now residing in them, would be compelled
to leave their homes and abandon the coun
try to the blacks. A systematic persecu
tion of the white race of the South, constant
and unceasing efforts to ruin and degrade
them—to deprive them of their property
and their political rights, and at the same
time to place all the political power in the
country in the hands of their former slaves,
without any training or previous prepara
tion for the proper exercise of those privi
leges—all show a studied effort to drive
the white people out of the Gulf States
and to place those States under the con
trol of the blacks. The whites arc, to a
great extent, disfranchised, and jllthe
black males, over tho
enlraffehfiSect. Thtf
well,“with the examples of Jlayti and Ja-
luaica before them, that the white people of
the Northern States and from Europe will
not emigrate to any country while it is un
der the control and management of ignorant
blacks. In the Northern States, where
there are but few blacks, the whites will
not allow them political privileges, and if
they will not do so in their own States how
can they be expected to immigrate to States
where the negroes not only vote, but where
they will have the supremacy? The New
England Radicals know that under their
plan of reconstruction there will be no im
migration of white people to the South,
and they do not intend there shall be any
if they can prevent it. Their object is to
collect all the blacks in the extreme South
ern or Gulf States, and at the same time to
force all the whites to move from the South
and settle in the North. This will be the
effect of their reconstruction policy, and
they so intend. Men do not usually act
without motives.
“Let us now inquire what motives can
induce such action on their part. Other
measures which they have adopted show
what motives are controlling them.
“ The New England Radical politicians
are the representatives of wealthy capital
ists and manufacturers, and adopt the poli
cy which they consider most conducive to
their interests. These men desire a dense
population in the Northern States in
order that labor may be made cheap by an
oyer-crowded population. They, having the
capital, will then be able to control this
labor, and the operatives will become the
virtual slaves of wealthy manufacturers.—
If the South is open to emigration from the
North and Europe, that section, on account
of its superior advantages, would become
the rival in cotton factories of New Eng
land ; but uuder negro government there
would be no danger of the South entering
into competition with New England, be
cause the negroes would never become a
manufacturing people. But tins is not all.
New England wants cheap food also. By
keeping the white people from the South
and destroying the Southern market for
Western produce, they will increase the
growth of provisions in the West and at the
same time diminish the price of those arti
cles. In this way they will be enabled to
get cheap food, which they so much desire,
and which is so necessary, with cheap la
bor, to their success in manufacturing.—
They know that when the South is Afri
canized, there will be less demand in the
South for Western produce, and white emi
grants from the South to the West will be
come producers instead of consumers of
provisions. The blacks in the South may,
and perhaps will, be able to raise the few
articles which they may need, but will fur
nish no market, or but little, for Western
produce. They will raise a little corn and
grain, a few hogs and cattle, a small amount
of cotton. The New England manufactur
ers think the blacks, left to themselves, will
raise enough cotton to supply their mills,
and that is all they desire. They do not
wish any cotton exported to foreign coun
tries. By means of the Freedmen’s Bureau
agents, who will at the same time be their
agents, they hope to control all the cotton
that may be raised in the South. By
means of a prohibitory tariff they expect
and intend to keep out foreign competition,
and thus be able to put whatever price
they may wish upon cotton fabrics. If
cotton should become abundant in the
South this would enable the South and
West, if white labor should be permitted to
go South, to manufacture as largely as
New England, and thus the price of cotton
fabrics would be reduced, while at the
same time the operatives would be better
paid, and labor of all kinds would be more
remunerative. If it is not their object to
discourage the growth of cotton, why do
they impose such an unusual and enormous
tax upon it—much of which has to be paid
by the blacks, for whom they profess so
much friendship ? From all these facts we
must conclude that their object is to de
crease the amount of cotton grownjjn the
South, so that they may consume all that
is raised in their own mills, and by having
a monopoly be enabled to obtain whatever
prices they may wish. They intend by
means of their agents in the South, who
will be Government officials, to get all the
proceeds of the negro’s labor, and really to
make the ignorant blacks the slaves of tlie
New England Radicals, whilst they are de
luded by the mere shadow of freedom
without its substance. Politically they
will be used to strengthen the Radicals,
whilst industrially they will work to fill
Radical pockets.
“ These New England Radicals, who are
among the shrewdest of men, and whose
fanaticism is the fanaticism of avarice, are
using the passions and prejudices of others
to subserve their pecuniary interests. The
agricultural classes of the North and North
west are and will be deeply injured by .this
policy, but many of them permit their
hatred of those whom they consider South
ern rebels to blind them to the wily schemes
oi the kueeu and calculating New Eng
landers. The poor ignorant blacks are be
ing used as the mere tools of their ambition
and avarice; and whilst they consider
themselves free, are the real slaves of those
whose ancestors sold their ancestors into
slavery. They are tempted by the glitter
ing bauble of suffrage to bind themselves
hand and foot, and deliver their rights,
their liberties and property, into the hands
of those who care nothing for them save as
they may be used for their own selfish pur
poses. What will be the effect upon the
industrial pursuits of the country if this
policy should lie pursued must be evident
to every reflecting mind. The grain grow
ers of the West and the agricultural classes
of the North, who are the consumers of
Southern products, such as sugar, cotton
and rice, would be the greatest sufferers.
Foreign exports would be diminished to a
fearful extent, whilst the internal taxes
would weigh heavily upon the energies of
the laboring people of the North. Even
New England in the end might reap
some of the evil fruits of her misdeeds.
There might not be enough cotton raised
by an Africanized South to supply the
New England mills, and they would then
be dependent on foreign countries for
a supply of raw material. The great body
of the Northern people having to pay in
creased prices for all articles of clothing,
and at the same time losing the chief mar
ket for tlieir productions, being also under
the necessity of paying high taxes for the
benefit of New Englandboifdholders, would
begin to feel some of the practical results
of New England’s pretended philanthropy.
“The laboring people of New England
are also deeply interested in preventing the
Southern States from becoming negro
colonies. Labor of all kinds, agricultural,
mechanical and manufacturing is in great
demand in the South, and commands high,
prices. If the laboring people of New
England were permitted to settle in the
South, those who emigrated would improve
their condition and increase their wealth,
whilst these who remained would then be
yb 1 rj&tak
connl. XWscaretry 7 The war between
capital and labor has already commenced.
The wealthy capitalists wish to close the
South against the Northern emigration by
Africanizing the Gulf States, whilst it is the
interest of the laborers of the North to have
the rich fields of the South open to them.—
The white people of the South desire the
settlement of Northern men among them,
but they knew full well that no Northern
men are going to emigrate to any country
where the negroes are equal in number
with the whites, and where they enjoy
equal if not superior political privileges.
“It is absurd to say that two races so
dissimilar as the whites and blacks, when
their numbers are equal, can live in peace
where they enjoy equal political privileges,
where they sit on the same juries, serve in
the same legislature and hold similar offices.
It is an impossibility. One race or the
other must be subordinate. So it lias al
ways been and so it will always be. Does
any one believe that the white people of
Massachusetts or any other Northern State
would give the negroes the same political
rights with the whites if they were equal
or nearly equal in numbers? Where there
are only a few negroes it makes but little
difference, for then the white race will be
the dominant and governing race. But it
is not so in the Gulf States. If the negroes
enjoy equal political privileges with the
whites, one race or the other must leave the
country.
“The conduct of the New England Radi
cals shows that it is their design to place
the country in such a condition that not
only will there be no immigration to the
South, but even the whites that are now
here will be under the necessity of leaving.
“ The Southern whites, as a general rule,
are disposed to treat the blacks with kind
ness and liberality, and to protect them in
the enjoyment of civil and personal rights.
The white men of Mississippi and Alabama
are giving the blacks one-fourth or one
third of the gross products of their farms.
Are any Northern manufacturers giving
their operatives one-fourth or one-third of
the gross proceeds of their factories? It is
to the interest of the land owner, when la
bor is high, to protect his laborers, so as to
win their confidence and secure their ser-
“ Having shown what is the policy of the
New England Radicals, and having glanced
hastily at some of its results, the question
is now presented can it be prevented, and
if so, by what means ? The South is
powerless. She can of herself do nothing
to avert the evil. Ail depends upon the
action of the Northern people. There is no
freedom of election now in the South.—
Everything is done under coercion. If tire
people of the North fully understand and
correctly appreciate the policy of New
England, they can and will apply the
remedy—by taking the Government out of
the hands of the extremists in a regular and
peaceable manner. The great source of
apprehension is that they will not see the
danger until it is too late to apply the
remedy. Let the Southern people endure
with patience the afflictions which may be
placed upon them, and remain by all means
in the Southern country, and not give it up
to the dominion of the blacks. Kindness
to the blacks themselves would dictate this
course. They will perhaps find out, sooner
or later, the purposes of their now pretend
ed friends, and will see that their only ob
ject is to fleece them and to use them for
their own partizan and pecuniary benefit.
T j leave the blacks of the South to the ten
der mercies of the New England adven
turers would be unjust to this unfortunrte
raoe, for they would find, when perhaps too
late, that their ‘ tender mercies were cruel.’
Let a good understanding between the
blacks and whites of the South be cul
tivated, and let it be remembered that
the interests of both races are identical;
that what injures and oppresses one will
injure and oppress the other, as the cotton
tax, which is unjust and oppressive to
both. It is not the real interest of the
black race that the Southern States should
be under negro rule. In that event they
would rapidly degenerate and become the
prey, of New England adventurers. The
very best condition which they can now
occupy is that of a friendly population
among the white people who now inhabit
the South, and such white people as may
lie induced to settle in the South and be
come permanent citizens. To check and
defeat the New England scheme of African
ization should be the aim of all men who
wish well to the community, and desire its
prosperity, whether they live in the North
or South, whether white or black.
“ These views are submitted to the calm
and sober judgment of the people, and are
not the result of passion or prejudice, bnt
are logical deductions from facts that can
not be disputed. The policy of New Eng
land cannot be accounted ior in any other
rational manner. Many are supporting it
wlio do not see the real purposes of the
managers, and who will themselves be
astonished at the deplorable results. To
such as these we have addressed our re
marks. We appeal to reason and justice,
and the enlightened judgment of the North
ern people. Shall our appeal be in vain ?
Fifteenth Day’s Proceedings of the Georgia
Unconstitutional Convention.
REPORTED FOR THE ATLANTA DAILY INTELLI
GENCER.
Friday, January TO, ISGB.
Convention met at 10 o’clock—the President
in the chair. Prayer by the Chaplain, and the
journal of the previous day read and con
tinued.
J. L. Dunning offered a resolution to the ef
fect that as Gen. Meade had signified his inten
tion to visit the hull of this convention to-day,
a committee of three be appointed to receive
and conduct him to a seat on the right of the
chair. The rules were suspended for the adop
tion of this resolution, and the selection ol
said committee, which consisted of J. L. Dun
ning, O. li. Walton and A. W. Holcombe.
The Secretary then proceeded to call the roil
for the introduction of new business, when J.
It. Parrott (out of the chair) asked for a sus
pension of the rules that be might Introduce a
resolution or ordinance to prevent sherifPs
from the levy and sale of property. He stated
that, said officers, in open defiance of the pre
vious action of this body', were exposing at
public outcry the property of a helpless peo
ple, and continued at some length in the sup
port of his measure. Permission was granted
and Mr. Parrott’s ordinance was read.
If. V. M. Miller opposed its passage on the
score of hasty legislation. It was an important
matter, and should bo well considered. He
wanted it referred to the Judiciary Committee.
J. L. Dunning also opposed hasty and incon
siderate action on. a subject ol so much impor
tance.
T. J. Speer was opposed to it, but would
move that 200 copies of it be printed, and that
it be made a special matter for to-morrow.
J. R. Parrott urged its adoption. The sheriffs
had treated with contempt the authority of this
convention, and ware seizing and selling the
properly of the people. He wanted a stop put
to it. The ordinance made it a penal offense on
the part of sheriffs to disobey, and such action
would have the desired effect. If they under
stood that a fine or dismissal from office would
billow further disobedience of this convention’s
instructions, there would be an end to sheriff’s
operations.
Thomas Gilbert urged its adoption.
P. B. Bedford said the people wanted relief—
the sheriffs were standing at their door—this
convention should restrain them. He hoped
the, ordinance would pass, and regretted that
earlier action had not been taken—much dis
tress may have been averted.
Aaron Alpcoria Bradley desired to say some
thing on flic subject, lie was in fajjr of the
If its simple passage
would -Avail unytbinev He bad cwked with
aide lawyers In the State on the subject. The
desired end might be reached in another way,
&c.
Upon motion, the ordinance was made the
speeiiil order tor Monday next.
J. R. Parrott offered a resolution that all the
committees on the constitution have2oo copies
ol their reports printed. This would have the
effect of systematizing all the matter gotten up
by them, and a general facilitating of business
would be the result. The resolution also made
it the duty of the committees to report at as
early a day as practicable.
J. E. Bryant fancied that ho could see in the
resolution a purpose to “gag” members of
this convention. He wanted it laid upon tho
table.
H. lv. McCny wanted the resolution amended,
and—
(J. C. Richardson rose to a point of order,
but 11. K. McCay was permitted to continue.—
There was room for improvement, &c.
J. R. Parrott desired specially to urge the
passage of his resolution. It did not propose
to “ gag” any man. There would be ample
time and opportunity to discuss the reports of
the committees.
J. IT. Caldwell could see no necessity for such
a resolution. It would cut off a full and tree
discussion of the reports of said committees,
and he was opposed to that. The gentleman
spoke at considerable length. It was a com
plete “ dysentery of words and constipation of
ideas.” He killed a vast amount of time, aud
r was suggested that he evidently supposed
himself in a clerical position at a protracted
camp meeting.
C. D. Davis thought too much time has been
wasted in the discussion, and indulged in some
sensible suggestions in favor of the resolution.
He thought such a measure would facilitate bu
siness.
The resolution was postponed.
(}. W. Ashburn offered an ordinance on the
subject, of personal rights—a long, windy docu
ment-consuming about one quire of foolscap.
This was laid upon the table, and 1500 copies of
it ordered to he printed.
A. T. Akerman, chairman of the Committee
on the Judiciary, presented the majority report
of that committee, which was laid upon the ta
ble, and 1500 copies ordered to he printed.
R. 11. Whiteley desired to make known his
dissent, being a member of the committee, from
the report made by A. T. Akerman, and read a
minority report, which took the same direction
as the other.
J. 11. Hudson asked to have read to the con
vention a letter from one ol his constituents,
whose grievances appeared to be numerous,
from the said letter. He was a Union man
during the war—liad been compelled to take
Conferate money—was now poor, and wanted
the (invention to give relief to persons in his
situ -tion.
J. W. T. Catching offered an ordinance for
the relief of the debtors of Georgia.
G. W. Ashburn offered a resolution that the
convention he clothed with the same power as
that of tile military district commander, and
the Congress of the Uuited States be petition
ed by this body to grant that power.
G. W. Ashburn also asked to have read to t.lie
convention a private letter from John Sher
man, member of Congress. This letter set forth
that the Georgia convention should have all the
power it wanted from the United States Con
gress—that Congress would legislate to any ex
tent. for the convention’s benefit. The conven
tion could make its demands—they would be
complied with.
G. W. Ashburn then asked for a suspension
of the rules t hat his resolution might be taken
up.
11. 11. Whitely opposed it.
G. W. Ashburn insisted that his resolution
should bo taken up at once. He would not
conceal bis purpose. It was vitally ynpoiTant
to remove without delay all obstacles to recon
struction, and the passage of his resolution
would ultimately accomplish that end.
The rules were suspended, when an effort
was made to lay the resolution upon (In- table
J. E. Bryant opposed it. Now was the ii,„a
to act. He wanted a disloyal State government
removed and a loyal one put in its stead. Con
gress could and would give this convention the
power if arked to do so. He wanted officials
who would obey the instructions of this con
vention—this representative body of the so
vereign people of Georgia.
John Harris, of Newton, wanted to state his
position. Several votes east by him recently
had created the impression that lie was oppos
ed to the. removal of certain State officials
Such was not the ease, and he desired now to
place it upon record that he was in favor of at
once removing all officials who are obstructing
the reconstruction laws.
J. L. Dunning stated that it was a singular
coincidence that he now had in his possession
letters from three distinguished members of
Congress, all of them asking “ what does the
convention Want,” to enable it to go on in the
good work of restoring Georgia to the-Union ?
If any further legislation was necessary—or
any more power wanted—it should be prompt
ly given for the asking. Mr. Dunning favored
the resolution of G. W. Ashbutn, and
the convention would pass it, thereby afctfng
Congress for the power now wanted, and
which ha 6 been generously proffered by stteral
members. " \
J. H. Caldwell said the country was “ groin
ing in agony”—treason was rampant » the

act at once. The resolntion was i sit*yi»nilfjr
proper one. This great country must bfs hatch

Here the Chair announced that
and his staff were in waiting at the
the “spread-eagle orator” subsided, aitethe
committee went out to conduct the .distinguish
ed visitor in.
The convention arose en masse as Gpkprol
Meade, accompanied by Col. Emory Col.
Meade, Captain McKibben, Gen.
Saxon and Col. Meline, entered the hall, tipon
being escorted to the right of the Chaiy, Gen.
Meade was cordially welcomed by ths Presi
dent, and formally introduced to the inven
tion. The following is his address ip. subitahce:
lie desired to thank the convention for its
courteous reception of him. He has be»n gent
by the commander-in-chief of the army at the
instance of the President, to execute a military
bill passed‘by the Congress of the United
States. Asa soldier, his duty was pidnjand
he should uot travel out of' the institutions
embraced in that bill. As to its iegtfity be
knew nothing, and it did not bccomethu to
inquire. It was his business so obey instruc
tions, and tiiose were to see that its measures
were carried out. Ilis position was aiyjmbar
rassing one in coming among strangers jo per
form difficult and delicate duties. Ha had no
acquaintance with any one in the military dis
trict he had been sent to conimanjjr [jad
never been in it before save merely'la pass
through. He would endeavor to faithfally per
form his duties, and hoped the whoh people
would he benefitted thereby, and content, with
his action when his mission among thea had
ended. He hoped the convention would be
just arid moderate in its deliberations ; ajjj, that
it would frame a constitution which everybody
could endorse. The military bill left it. option
al with tlie people to accept or uot the Consti
tution framed by the convention, and it was
his firm purpose to see that they, without in
terference, should express their assentfir dis
sent when it was submitted to them. Ho did
not consider that any action ot the conven
tion -its ordinances and resolutions —was legal
and binding until the same had been ratified
by tlie people, and approved by the President
and Congress; yet, under tlie pceuliai-Aircum
stanees, and anomalous state of affairs in the
State, he might give vitality to some measures
when it was made apparent to him that the
good of the people demanded it. In ffiis con
nection Gen. Meade made allusion tiAhc sub
ject of relief. Again thanking the cvSHTtution
ior attentions shown him, and indulging tlie
hope that his relations with it might be har
monious, Gen. Meade retired to the floor of the
convention.
xThese remarks of Gen. Meade were alter
nately applauded by the convention and those
in the lobby. At. its conclusion, the conven
tion look a recess ol fifteen minutes, to enable
the members to pay their respects to him, when
each and all were in turn introduced by the
President.
Tlie convention was called to order; when J.
11. Caldwell resumed his speech upon G. W.
Ashburn’s resolution, lie said the country
was in an “ agony of suspense” to be freed from
the thraldom oi disloyalty. Every loyal heart
in the State would pulsate with joy at the pas
sage ot sueli a resolution. The reporter cannot
follow J. If. Caldvveil in his subfitue flights.—
He reared, plunged, and pawed the ground.—
He pulled the American eagle all around, and
wrapped himself tip in the “stars auiksU-ipes,”
and thrilled the whole assemblage.
G. W. Ashburn rose in support of kb resolu
tion, but was called to order by L.N. Tram
mell, who in turn was called to or<J« by the
Chair, when G. W. Ashburn resumed. He was
opposed to delay in the matter. Gov, Jenkins
was in the way of this convention, and must be
removed. A passage of this resolution would
doubtless secure an end so desirable, &e.
C. D. Davis, of Walton, wanted t»«ay some
thing, The military bill was the death warrant
of civil government in the State, and we must,
not permit any interference from it. We can
not. dally with the enemy—remove him! He
was ready to vote upon the resolution—thol
power that it would secure was wtJfcd at once.
Gov. Jenkins was denounced in bittEif terms as
a hair-brained politician, and it was®e duty of
this convention to remove all snnhiftstacles.—
He respected Gov. Jenkins for W private
worth, but, fidelity to the people
demands that the track should ot
him, and let us do it at Once.
ment of Georgia must go down
tion must go down. This is inewmble. We
cannot make terms with our enemy? Ills knife
is at our throat—we cannot temporise—away
with all such.
(Here Gen. Meade left the hall, followed by
those who accompanied him.) <
G. W. Ashburn attempted to spafk,.but was
ruled out of order. Likewise J. If. Caldwell.
L. N. Trammell opposed the rcJNutlou ill a
speech of some length, during tifclefivery of
which sevemf attempts were rnadwjb interrupt
him. lie boldly charged that the Alsnburn reso
lution was an effort on the part otjthc conven
tion to wrest from Gen. Meade the power and
authority given to district commanders by the
military bill, and usurp it themselves. Such
was unquestionably tlie purpose, else why ask
Congress to clothe the convention with equal
power. He said it was a gross insult to that
distinguished soldier, for a want oUeoufidence
in him was plainly implied, and hAhallenged
a refutation of the charge. He waHbposed to
the resolution of G. W. Ashburnf aud had a
substitute to offer, and such was ire character
that the true status of the convention would be
fixed. There was no dodging it—ho would
make the issue very plain. Mr. Trammell then
read his substitute, as follows:
“ Resolved, That our confidence in the firm
ness, ability and fidelity of Major General Geo.
G. Meade is full and complete; that we hereby
express our opinion that he comes among us
to execute the laws of the United States ;'that
his powers are ample and complete, and that
lie has the will to effect the restoration of tlie
Slate lo its full relations as a State of the
Union.”
Mr. Trammell continued to hold the floor in
support of his substitute, and lie intended to
force the convention to either vote it tiown, lay
it on the table, or “ shirk it ” by calling for the
“ previous question.” It was bis linn purpose
to compel them to define their true position. If
his substitute was voted down, tabled, or e vaded
in any way, then Gen. Meade would at once
understand that the convention would not trust
him. II his substitute was accepted, then it
would be plain to every mind that their confi
dence in Gen. Meade was “full and complete,”
and hence no necessity for Congress to give
the convention equal power with him.
Efforts were made by Aaron Alpeoria Brad
ley (negro), J. E. Bryant, C. C. Richardson, C.
11. Prince and P. B. Bedford to interrupt Mr.
Trammell, but the Chair permitted him to re
tain the floor in advocacy of his substitute un
til the hour for adjournment had arrived. —
Mr. Trammell is entitled to the floor at the
opening this morning, and will doubtless press
his measure to a solution.
Adjourned to 10 o’clock to-day.

'IKE GRAND SECRET.—The grand secret in
medication is to help nature. Sustain and regulate—
these are the Alpha nd Omega of the only theory of cure
that has common sense for its basis. If the nervous sys
tem is shattered, the muscles weak, and the mind, like
the body, in a state of partial collapse—what is it best to
do V Reason teaches us the answer: build up your man
Brace him as you would braco a tottering edifice. The
pabulum he needs is a Tonic Alternative. Bring him up
out of the depths of Debility and Despondency with
HOSTETTEU’S BITTERS. They cannot injure. A
child may take them in doses suited to its years, without
the possibiliy of harm. The enfeebled vital powers areas
sure to respond energetically to their action as the wilted
grass is to erect its blades under the vivifying and re
freshing rain. In all cases of debility the BITTERS are
absolutely required. There is no substitute or succeda
neum that will fill their place. Resort to the most won
derful of modern tonics, and all will be well. Bear
in mind that in Dyspepsia, Intermittent Fevers, Billious
disorders, and affections ot the nerves, no other medicine
will produce one tithe of the good effect that invariably
follows the use of this excellaut invigorant and cor

Stonby Point, White Cos., Ark., May 23, ’GG.
Dr. John Boll —Dear Sir : La*t February I was in
Louisville purchasing: drugs, and I got some of your Sar
saparilla and Cedron Bitters.
My son-in-law, who was with me in the store, has been
down with rheumatism for some lime, commenced on the
Bitters, and soon found his general health improved.3 figg
Dr. Gist, who hss been in bad health, tried them, and
he also improved.
Dr. Coffee, who has been in bad health for several
years—stomach and liver affected—he improved very much
by the use of your Bitters. Indeed the Cedron Bitters
has given you great popularity in ill's settlement. 1
think I could sell a great quantity of your medicines this
fall—especially of your Cedron Bitters and Sarsaparilla.

Bull’s Worm Destroyer.
TO MY UNITED STATES AND WOULD
WIDE READERS.
I have received many testimonials from professional
and medical men, as my almanacs and various publica
tions have shown, all of which are genuine. The follow
ing letter from a highly educated and popular physician
In Georgia, is certainly one of the most sensible commu
nications I have ever received. Dr. Clement knows ex
actly what he speaks of, and his testimony deserves to be
written in letters of gold. Hear what the Doctor says of
“ Bull’s Worm Destroyer:
Yili.anow, Walker County. Ga.. )
J uno 29, 1866.5
Dr. John Bull— Dear Sir : I havo recently given your
“ Worm Destroyer” several trials, and find it wonderfully
efficacious. It has not failed in a single instance to have
the wished for effect. lam doing a pretty large country
practice, and have daily use for seme article of the kind.
lam free to confess that I know of no remedy recom
mended by the ablest authors that is so certain and
speedy in its effects. On the contrary they are uncertain
in the extreme. My object in writing you is to find out
upon what terms I can get the medicine directly from
you. If I can get it upon easy terms, I shall use a great
doal of it. I am aware lhat the use cf such articles Is
contrary to the teachings aud practice of a great majority
of the regular line of M. D.'s, but I see no just cause or
good sense in discarding a remedy which we know to be
efficient, simply because wo may bo ignorant of its combi
nation- For my part, I shall make it a rule to use all and
any means to alleviate suffering humanity which I may he
able to command—not hesitating because somo one more
ingenious than myself may have learned its effects first,
and secured the soio right to secure that knowledge.
However, I am by no means an advocate or supporter of
the thousands of worthless nostrums that flood the coun
try, that purport to cure all manner of disease to which
human flesh is heir. Dleaso reply soon, and inform me of
your best terms.
I am, sir, most respectfully,

Bruton Barrack’s, Mo., April 30,1806.
Dr. Joen ßull— Dear Sir : Knowing the efficiency of
your Sarsaparilla, and the healing and beneficial quali
ties it possesses, I send you the following statement of
my case.
I was wounded about two years ago—was taken pris
oner and confined for sixteen months. Being moved so
often, my wounds have not healed yet. I have not sat up
a moment since I was wounded. lam shot through the
hips. My general health is impaired and I need some
thing to assist nature. I have more faith in your Sarsa
parilla than in any thing else: I wish that that is genuine.
Please express me half a dozen bottles, and oblige
Capt. C. P. JOHNSON,
St. Louis, Mo.
P. S.—The following was writien April 30, 1805, by Mrs.
Jennie Johnson, mother of Capt. Johnson:
Dr. Bull— Dear Sir : My husband, Dr. C. S. Johnson,
was a skillful surgeon and physician ia Central New
York, where ho died, leaving the above C. P. Johnson to
my care. At thirteen years of age iie had a chronic diar
rhea and scro r ula, for which I gave him your Sarsaparilla.
It cured him. I have for ten years recommended it to
many in New York, Ohio, and lowa, for scrofula, fever
sore.-, and general debility. Perfect success has attended
it. The cures effected in some cases of scrofula and lever
sores were almost miraculous. lam very anxious for my
son to again have recourse to your Sarsaparilla. He is
fearful of getting a spurious article, hence his writing to
you for it. His wounds were terrible, but I believe he
w ill recover.
Respectfully, JENNIE JOHNSON.
DR. JOHN BULL,
manufaoturbr and vknder of the celebrated
Smith’s Tonic Syrup!
FOR THE CURE OF
AGUE AND FEVER
OR
CHILLS AND FEVER.
The proprietor of this celebrated medicine justly claims
for it a superiority over all remedies ever offered to the
public for the safe, certain, speedy, nnd permanent cure
of Ague and Fever, or Chills and Fever, whether of short
or long standing. Hoiefers to tho entire Western and
Southwestern country to bear him testimony to the
truth of the assertion, that in no case w hatever will it
fail to cure, if the directions are ttricily followed and car
ried out. In a great many ca i ea a single dose has been
sufficient for a cure, and w hole families have been cured
by a single bottle, with a perfect restoration of the gen
eral health. It is, however, prudent, and in every case
more certain to cure, if its use is continued in smaller
doses for a week or two after the disease has been checked
more especially in difficult and long standing cases
Usually, this medlciue will not require any aid to keep the
bowels in good order ; should the patient, how r erer, re
quire a cathartic medicine, after having taken three or
four doses of tho Tonic, a single dose of “ Bull’s Vegeta
ble Family Pills ” will be sufficient.
