CONSTITUTIONALIST AUGUSTA. GhA. WEDNESDAY MORNING. OPT. 6, 1870 FIFTH CONGRESSIONAL DISTRICT. for congress. FOR THE SHORT TERM. (TMN. R. W. CARSWELL, Os Jefferson. County. FOR THE LONG TERM. JUDGE W. M. REESE, " Os Wilkes County. A GREAT COUNTRY. The Radical Yankees are very anxious to have it appear that they bear all the burdens of the Government, while the South is a barren, barbarous and God-for saken section. It happens, however, that their own Chief of the Bureau of Statistics takes the conceit oUt of any such presump tion. We learn that the exports of pro ducts of the United States for the year ending June 30th, 1870, comprising the thirty-five principal articles, amount to $473,451,040. The exports of cotton and cotton goods alone amounted to $230,- 807,931, or within eleven millions of one-half of the entire exports of the country. Considering the incessant devil try we have been subjected to from the aforesaid Radical Yankees, this is a pretty good showing. And considering that the greater part of the money earned by the South sticks to the fingers of our dear brethren of the North, it is as little as they can do to tell the truth and act with civility. The fact is, the South constitutes the most valuable part of the Union, and “ Reconstruction,” in its last analysis, means that she shall contribute to the cof fers of her task masters just so long as they can compel such service. They have succeeded famously so far, but the next generations will change all that, by learn ing to support themselves and stopping the flow of tribute. N<^ Doubt— Gen. John C. Brown, the Democratic candidate for Governor of Ten nessee, made a capital speech at Chatta nooga, the other day. He delivered this admirable hit: “ I have thus been over the entire plat “ form, and am sure there is nothing in it “ to which any reasonable man could ob “ ject. The Radicals, of course, object. 1 “ suppose if we had adopted the Ten Com “ mandmcntß as a platform, some one “ would have objected. I am sure the “ Radicals would, for there is, I believe, “ one of them which says, ‘ Thou shalt not “ steal.’ ” A. Sly Dig. —The Courier-Journal has this slap at Cincinnati and the Green Line excursion: % “ We hope the Green Line excursionists “ are having a good time in Cincinnati just “ now. Cincinnati always has a supply of “ good time on hand to sell to the South “ ern people, but the purchaser invariably “ pays an immense price for it in the end.” The October Elections.— The great States of Indiana, Ohio, Pennsylvania and lowa vote for Congressmen on the 11th of this month. But, great as the stakes are, there is no life in the canvass. The reason of this is plain. Democracy has got so very close to Republicanism on the “ dead issue” humbug that the people really care very little as to a choice between G*sab add Pompey. Jess Sol—The plebiscite did the job for France, thus : Count Bismarck carefully watched all that was done In Paris early iu the year. “Os the army,” he said, “285,- 657 soldiers voted Yes, and 46,210 voted JVi> —total, 331,877. This,” he argued, “is the full amount that Napoleon can bring into the field at a short notice.” Smart man, that Bismarck. , Prom the Ba Itlmore .Kpiecopal Met hodiet. Our Nation al Characteristic. It we’ should be called upon to give in a siugle word the implfession which this, the greatest aud best country the sun ever shone upon, produces on our minds, we should say, Pinchbeck. We have now ar rived at a good old age, aud that is the matured and deliberate result of our expe rience of Columbia. We an sorry to say it, but if Sha n, Imposture and Humbug were ever written indelibly on every line of a human face, it is on that of Brother Jonathan. It is not right for any naan to complain .of being born on this or that' continent, or in this or that country. Such being the will of Providence, it is right to submit, and we trust we are resigned. But we are not required to be ignorant that there can be no greater trial and afflic tion to human pride than that of being an inhabitant of such a land of humbugs, even though it were an involuntary act. If there is one department of human thought or enterprise, in which the “ land of the free and the home of the brave ” is not a mere imitation, hollowness and cheat, we should like to know what that happy department is. Is it in literature, science, arms, statesmanship, theology, or what, that we have added one original idea to the stock of human knowledge? Have we half a dozen great authors and thinkers, acknowledged by the republic of letters throughout the world? Who are our il lustrious soldiers since the Revolution, ex cept the “ rebel chiefs,” who resisted the late bloody massacre of American liberties, but whom we do not acknowledge as Americans ? Whjf should we be taught by our political and social leaders to strut about and vapor as if we were really the grandest people that ever lived, when, in fact, we are only greater than other nations in our peurility, self-conceit, bombast and barbarism, and are only subjects of interest to Hie civilized portions of the world, as producing cotton and corn. Our claim to be a Republic is of course a falsehood, proved to be so by the execrable tyranuies and horrors of the late war, as well as by the treatment of the Southern people since, including the splendid illus tration of the leading idea of our revolu tionary struggle of the abominable injus tice of taxation without representation.— Our professed hatred of aristocracy is another of the most transparent deceits that ever was attempted upon human na ture. The only objection that any repub lican ever had to a king is that he cannot be king himself; the ouly objection' any plebeian ever had to an aristocracy, is that he cannot be an aristocrat. Any man that has eyes in his head must see, aud any man that has a stomach must be nauseated well nigh to death, by all this republican twad dle about kings and aristocracy. There is not on the face of the earth, as vulgar, as sordid, as ignorant, as soulless, as base, and despotic a ruling order as the pinch beck would-be aristocracy of wealth iu these United States of America. There is not one of these beggars on horseback who does not in his secret heart worship heredi tary rank and title, in spite of all his abusives lang towards born gentlemen, and would not rejoice to exchange his dirty gains for a match for his son or daughter with the impoverished descendant of an Europc&ii noble. Yet here is a whole na tion forty millions of people, who live, breathe and have their being in a political and social atmosphere which is wholly and palpably made up of Illusions and lies. There is no greater agency in propagat ing these universal decepetons than the po litical newspaper press. It is Itself, in the main, a cheat and an imposition. Except as an Instrumentality for material develop- ment, the press is often an enemy to the best interests of society. Who are the conductors of the leading Journals of our principal Northern citi s? Who is the editor of the New York Herald f Os the New York Iribune f Os the New York Independent? Hear these shallow-pated pretenders, the most competent of whom has been educated at an obscure Americau so-called college, laying down the law upon all branches of human knowledge with the air of an oracle! ; It te enough to make a horse laugh! There seems to be no reality, substance, originality or genu ine grit in any of those so-called organs of public opinion Our late war, which tum bled the continent into chaos, ought to have disclosed a mammoth in some branch of enterprise, but except in the “ acdursed rebel States,” not even the remains of a mastodon were to be seen. For statesmen, we have Seward, and for generals, Grant, who, among them, overpowered the Booth in as many years as it has taken Prussia weeks to dispose of the first military empire of the world. And ever since, they have been strutting, crowing and spreading their feathers, like a victorious gobbler who had trampled a victorious chicken to death, as if the like of that had never before been seen under the sun. Very probably it had not, at any rate in the closing scenes. Poor South 1 Whose greatest mortification must have been that of the Dutchman, mortally wounded by a ram, and who declared with his dying breath, that he did not so mucli mind being killed as “ being bntted to death by a mis- erable sheep.” It is true the country is young and can not expect to rank with the oldest nations in learning and civilization. Why not own it, then ? Why not say so, and educate our people upon that indisputable fact, instead of upon a foundation of self-evident fables ? Why not acknowledge that this is anew continent, inhabited by a hardy race of Eu ropean peasantry, whose national progress has been wonderful, because they occupy a new territory, which has attracted hungry and energetic adventurers like themselves from all the earth, and whose combined ne cessities and energies have developed its resources at a double-quick time? Why not, like men, with beards on their faces, admit that in all that is not material, we are behind the age—mere children in knowledge, who have onr alphabet to learn of European masters; plebians socially, who have no right to look down upon each other or any of ti e rest of human family ; politically, as little capable of self-govern ment, and as incompetently governed as the most- down trodden race of Europe; and in a military point of view, equalled only by Brazil, which took about as long to conquer Paraguay as thi3 modern Rome to subjugate the Southern States. B-lud, lago — B-luo ! — The following sanguinary and gory paragraph appears in the tragic colnmns of the Greenville (Tenn.) National Union of this week : We are credibly informed that murders and outrages dontiuue to be perpetrated upon the persons of innocent, unoffending Union men and their families in Middle and West Tennessee. Scarcely a week or a day passes without its victim, and yet the Banner and other Ku Klux sympathiz ing journals talk proudly about the happy state of quiet and peace prevalent through out the State under the gracious rule of their accomplices. To this Radical howl, the Nashville Banner administers the following consol ing assurance : Yes, we must admit it We “ smile, and murder while we smile.” The other night as we entered the dark shades of Printers’ Alley we coolly stabbed a delinquent sub scriber in the midriff and hung him on a nail. As we entered the editorial den, onr grim-assoeiates, the night-owls, were all covered with gore—their revolvers all emptied—a sulphurous odor pervaded the sanctum atmosphere, and the door-ways were blockaded with dead bodies. Our insatiate news editor, suffering with the neuralgia, rushed, howling, to the street, and tore an innocent hackman from his coach and his leg from his body, and beat him into an indistinguishable mass with the bloody end thereof. He then resumed his labors at the desk complacently, but our local reporters continue to coroe.in at all hours with fresh scalps at their belts, and are forever and eternally wiping thqir bowie-blades upon our freshest , exchanged, and defiling them with the blood of the infidel dogs of the Republican faith. We are thinking of securing a corps of Turcos to do up the fighting department, and a cannibal or two, from Otaheite, to dispose of the defunct bodies of the victims to our editorial displeasure. “ Now cou’d we drink hot blood and do such business as the bitter day would quake to look on!” (Krora the Nancy Correspondent of the Moniteur. German Reign in France. HOW THE PEOPLE LIKE IT —SCHLAGE FUU DIE PBANZOSEN—CAN SUCH THINGS BE IN THIS CENTURY? tfou are aware that there is here a Prus sian Governor, Yon Bonnin, lodged at the marshal’s office, a Prefect who is Colonel in the Lancers, and a civil commissary.— All this inundates us with proclamations and menaces which lack nothing except carrying out. For the last two months tvery inhabitant lias been -accommodating two or three officers daily and ten soldiers. One day there passed through the town 40,000 Bavarians, it was wished that they shonld be all quartered in the neighbor hood of Stanislas square. What was done ? They were led in troops of 100 before a house, which they entered, settled in, drank and ate. And it was necessary, and is ne cessary still, to wait on these people. Many inhabitants have quitted Nancy. Their houses have been broken open and filled with soldiers, who, finding nobody to wait on them, wait on themselves, breaking open the cellars, chests, &c. All this is strictly the truth. In the villages it was worse. They mal treated the inhabitants, and indulged in a thousand atrocities. At Point St. Vincent a colonel and bis officers struck, you understand, struck, the Baroness S., a lady of the best society. They have performed the necessities of na ture in her bedroom. At Saxon, near Nancy, they have turned the church into a stable, and have fastened round the Virgin’s neck a necklace of ducks’ heads. Others have deposited their excrement behind the altar. They have themselves placarded the news of their victory at Sedan in German and French. The placards have been snatched down. 'l'heir men have sung infamous songs in the evening before the cases of the place. Our men have immediately assem bled and sung the Marseillaise. Troops were fetched who charged the crowd. A merchant named Thiery was arrested and condemned to death. He was not execut ed, and perhaps his sentence will be com moted to two years’ imprisonment in the fortress. Every morning peasants are shot. The day when the proclamation of the republic was knownjthe town was given over to fire and blood. In Stanislas square, right in face of the Prussians, a large placard was l>osted up bearing the words, Vice, la Repub liqueMort aux Pruxsiens! There were about 500 persons. They were immediate ly charged by a Prussian detachment per manently quartered at the town hall.— Those who were not on guard dispersed through the town, sabre in hand, and there wanted little for it to degenerate into a horrible butchery. There were about 20 wonnded with blows from bayonets. The Funeral of Admiral Farragut —President Ulysses S. Grant, Secretary of the Navy George M. Robeson, Postmaster- Geueral John A. J.Creswell, and Secretary of War William W Bel knap attended the fimeral of Admiral Farragut, in this city yesterday. This is an illustration of the power of the press, forcing them to do what they didn’t want to do. After the noble Admiral was buried, the distinguished gentlemen above mentioned attended a champagne supper at the rooms of the Union League. This is an illustra tion of the power of appetite. [IV.

MALARIOUS FEVERS ARE MOST PREVA LENT ia the Fall. Heavy and unwholesome exha lations then arise from the earth, and the great disparity between the temperature of day and night predisposes the system, enfeebled by the Summer heats, to epidemic diseases. The eecrelive organs, the liver especially, are apt, at this period of the year, to become inert and sluggish, and all the bodily powers require renovation. The best, indeed the only pro tection against the morbid influences of the season is a wholesome medicated stimulant. Pre-eminent among the restoratives of this class, and indeed fore most among the remedial and preventive medicines of modern times, stands Hostetter’s Stomach Bitters. Its reputation is co-extensiva with the Western Hemisphere; it has been a standard article for twenty years; its sales (as may he ascertained by the revenue returns) are far larger than those of any other pro prietary preparation on this continent; and the tes timony in its favor embraces letters of approval from the most disi ingnished members of all the learned professions and from well known residents of almost every city in the Union. These are its credentials To state what it is doing to prevent and assuage the sufferings of the human family would require more space than can be given to the subject here. The dyspeptic, the billious. the nervous, the weak and emaciated, the desponding, the broken down, find in its renovating and regulating properties a sure and immediate means of relief. It is a pure vegetable specific, at oDce safe and potent, and for which the whole materia medica affords no substitute. octl-satnthActld MT SEWING MACHINES.-WHEELKR & WILSON World Renowned Improved SEWING MACHINES lor Sale, Rent and Lease.
