Andy Johnson.
The press of the Union is divided in
opinion on the wisdom of the Ten
nessee Legislature in selecting Andy
Johnson to represent them in the
United States Senate. It will not be
denied that lie iH a man of wonderful
brain and vitality, hut it is question
able whether the South is to receive
any great benefit from his presenee
in tin: National Councils. It will not
be safe to wager too much on him, for
lie has lioon in the “circus” and learn
ed some sharp tricks, among them
how to become the champion two
horse rider, and the aet of vaulting.
At one time it was generally conceded
that the death of Lincoln, that hand
ed the reins of Government to Mr.
Johnson, was the worse calamity that
Udell us, after we had been overpow
ered. The country remember quite
well the role he played in the recon
struction of the .South, which entailed
such trouble and poverty upon uh ;
and we must not tie exi>eeted to ac
cept him without some letter of rec
ommendation. Since lie has been out
of power he has wrangled with the
present Administration, and thus j
wrangled himself again into office,|
He may not-prove ungrateful to the
peqpie of Tennessee, especially as pe
hasA little grudge against the Radi
cal party, which he anticipates can-1
(silling with compound interest.
He Is deserilied as a man neither
broad in his views nor bold enough to
advance them, yet the South suffered
long for his mistakes. He defeated a
good Confederate soldier, Gen. Win,
Bate. While (ten. Bate is not pos
sessed of Mr. Johnson’s brain or in
fluence, he would, beyond a doubt,
have voted right, and that is what we j
want, We get nothing from them by j
argument, for they are not sent there '
to ho convinced, but stubbornly to J
abuse, vllllfy, and oppress the youth,
Wo want votes, and a majority of
them In both Houses, before we can
get from under thetr perhieious legis- j
lation.
The Louisville Courier-Journal thus
discourse*! on the ('lection of Mr.
Johnson:
“The expectations entertained of the
Senator ure likely to lie disappointed, for
witli great natural gifts Johnson is not in
[■entity either a hold or a promt man. Willi
many good Intentions, he. is a sottish ego
tist to whom the South, at least, owes
much misleading and many misfortunes.
The opposition he lias just overcome was
created by his own perversity. A thor
ough marplot, as he is a thorough agita
tor, he returned to Ids home in Tennessee,
after retiring troru the Presidential oltlee
to precipitate himself into a vulgar wrim
gle winch has given him, at the end of six
years, what ho might have had without a
contest ill the beginning.
“Tile years of disappointment through
which he has passed attest his focticus
and bitter disposition, not any preconceiv
ed hostility to him on the part of Tennes
see. Yet It is impoosbic not to admire the
vigor of one who, sixty-six years of age,
shows tin l firmness and tlie grasp the ea
ger ambition am 1 the selfish individuality
of a youthful aspirant. The ex-l’resident
will go to Washington bent on personal
sattsfasttom He will go to revenge himself,
and to vlndieate his administration. Thus
he will he something of a hobbyist, lilted
iiy one ldea;und the danger Is that, lie will
prove a liore, missing the issues of the
present to tight his own lost, battles over
again, liis election will at least get him
out of local |K)Jities. 'J ims Tennessee lias
followed til*' example of the young lady
who married an importunate suitor to get
rid of him.

“Gentlemen,” said a proud old
Democrat to the bystanders on the
street liiNasliville last. Tuesday after
noon, “for the last forty years I have
endeavored to live the life oT a con
sistent Christian, and during that
whole time I have studiously avoided
the utterance of all language unbe
coming the Christ inn character; hut
I cannot speak of this thing without
giving way to the wildest profanity.
You will, therefore, excuse me when
I say thut the man, woman or child
who voted for Andrew Johnson, or
was in any way instrumental in sc
ouring his election to the United
States Senate, is a miserable and os
tentatiously ruiuilied sub-cutaneous
parallax, and T don’t care what
preacher hears me say so.” Courier

The Savannah Advertiser thus sums
up its objections to the scheme intro
duced In the Goorgiu Legislature for
the State to run and operate a bank:
1. Such institutions open anew Held to
political patronage, anil, therefore, of no- i
cessity, to fraud and corruption.
2. Tlie Stale, with fraud and corruption
to contend with, cannot handle the poo- j
pie’s money to the same advantage, nor at !
less than treble the risk that, each man
can for himself.
a. Wo pay taxes to mret the aoteal ex
iHinses of the State, and not to provide I
funds for the eternally impecunious.
4. The State has not the money, and the
tax payers, with the history of past "Re- j
lief’ dodgi's before them, will not consent
to nurse indefinite mortgages on honest
sweat and hard muscle.
5. Loans through State bauks am forced
loans from hard taxed honesty, for the j
benefit of very popular, but very importu
nate beggar* at i lie public crib.
(!. No one worth fiia annual hied would
take the stock at par, and everybody else
would not only borrow the capital lmt the
credit oil which it would l>e liasi-d.
7. Whore and at wliat. rate will Georgia,
good anil groat as she is, get the money ■

We are sorry to rend the follow
ing in the Talbotton Standard. The
young ladies must regret this state of
affairs verv much : "There is a ten
dency on the port o£ our young men
to neglect ladies society. This is ex
ceedingly injurious, ami all young
men should so consider it. There is
nothing that helps a man as much as I
female society.”

Wole ft thffvillnge of Hatoheoliub
• bee a few days since on a flying trip to
the Capital, via Columbus and Ope
lika, returning by way of Union
Springs. At Columbus we found the
j mud had taken possession of the city
! and trade was nt, a “dead lock.” We
look pus-age ou the 11; 15 train for
Opelika, arriving in that city In time
I fo7 dinner. As we had not visited
this city since the war, you can imag
inoour surprise at seeing a cross
roads town of ten years ago converted
into quite a beautiful little city,
which, according to all appearances,
bids fair to prove quite a successful
competitor for the trade of the up
per counties as well as the surround
! ings. We spent u whole day in “ilo
-1 ing” up the “berg,” and felt thor-
I oughly convinced that if Columbus
' don’t wako out of that wonderful
1 slumber which seems to pormeate
her slothful system, she will sooner
[ or later find Opelika a most formida
ble and energetic rival.
Hero we found stocks of goods (espe
cially iu tlie grocery line) superior to
any we saw in Columbus, and at fig
ures below those in Columbus, both
!at wholesale and retail. We did not
hear II single oomplolnt of hard times,
! and judging from the bright smiles
of her merchants we can safely say
l Opelika has reaped a good harvest
| from all quarters. Some of the mer
j chants told me they had sold goods
as low down as within six miles of
HATCHECHPBDEE,
on the Mobile and Girard railroad,
] and that considerable cotton had been
j hauled there from Uchee, Truywick’s,
I Sand Fort, Crawford and Creek Stand.
Certainly there must have been some
motive, some inducement offered
above Columbus, and wo would sug
gest. that the “Board of Trade” look
j into the probable cause and try and
! repair the defect. It cannot tie that
! cotton brings a Letter figure in Ope
i iika than Columbus—for Columbus
i has the reputation of being one of the
best inland cotton markets in the
| South. Is it theu a. question of
i freights? Have tlie merchants of (!o
--! lumbus put their business before
these sections through the medium
of the press, or have they endeavored
to prove that their city is not a de
funct way station, by offering this
noetion of country evidences that
they are a live, energetic, business
set of men. or do they rely alone on
tln past glory arid prestige of Colum
bus? It would he Imprudent in me to
say (with due respect to the business
men of Columbus,) thut a contrast,
even with .Opelika, showed plainly
to my vision thut there was need of
something to give Columbus a com
mercial status worthy of a city of her
pretensions.
MONTfIOSIEtIT
'we reached after traveling from la.
m. till 11.411 a. m. Here, too, we found
i a sea of mud and an ocean of men.
j We took lodgings at the “Exchange,” j
| where most of the ltei>r<anmtativos |
have thetr abode. Wo got breakfast
after sitting just one hour and t went y
minutes waiting for it, and only sue- ■
needed then after assuring the polite
head waiter that we were not a mem
ber of the Legislature and were in
town on business. We were handed
the city papers with which to engross
our attention anil.somewluit console ;
our inconsolable appetite, but we
coutd have read the whole Beecher j
scandal in seven languages before
our eyes greeted the “eulhid gem-!
min” who did honor us with that
;eo tlftsli stalk. All in all, it is a “hul-
I ly” house, with plenty to eat, and a
! deal of politeness to boot, (if a fellow
| aint particular whose expenses he is
I on und hasn’t any business to attend
to.) We found Montgomery up to
her eyes in mud and business; heard
no complaints of hard times there,
and we could but wonder how this
city had recovered from the disaster
of last fall a yarn' ago, when “Yellow
j Jack” laid the hand of death on her
| citizens and the grasp of commercial
; desolation on her business enter
| prises.
Montgomery boasts some live, en
ergetic business men, and they in- j
form me that no effort will he spared
to control the trade of Russell, Ma
con, Bullock and Barbour counties 1
this coming season. They brag that j
they pay more for cotton than Co- j
lumbus’does, which, I am sorry to
say, I find in the main correct this
season. We visited the firm of Le-
Grand & Cos., and formed the ac
quaintance of J>r. M. I’. LeUrurgl,
the Business man of the firm, and I
might sav of tlie city. This house is
the largest one in tlie United States, j
South. It contains more goods than
almost the whole of the villages of
Columbus and Opelika combined.
The structure (dry goods) is four-!
j story, and the finest of the merean-!
j tile variety South. The grocery de- j
j part meat is 85 by 300 feet long, aud
! with the exception of A. T. Stewart's
the combined establishment covers
I more ground than any house in the
j United States. The advertising of
i this house alone lias cost it more than
! your (viper realizes from tlie entire
| business of Columbus. Think of that,
j and sigli for some business man like
M. P. Let Irani!. Columbus has need
and room for such an house and man.
j Yea, a score of them. Shulman, Geo
-1 ter ,v Weil do a dry goods business
j of oyer a million dollars,, and there
j are other houses who approximate
line to three hundred thousand. As
to prices compared with Columbus,
there is a modest difference of about
20 per cent, in favor of Montgomery,
all arising from the fact of doing a
“wholesale business” ’n facility Co
lumbus has never enjoyed, save in an
e\l>erimental way on limited capita).
union spin NOS.
We did not “do” this “burg,” owing
to the fact that we arrived at night,
after a tedious journey over that mod
el railroad, the Montgomery & Eu
faula, where it takes the honest la
bors of a 200 horse-power locomotive
! to mako forty miles In five hours. We
I could have done a fair days’ gunning
|on this road, by jumping on and off
! at station#and whipping through to
overtake the engine at some other
point.
AHIUVINU HOME,
wo found that the city'was quiet and
enjoying that peace aud repose inei-
I dent to country life. Wo wended our
j way to our residence, und, after kiss
ing tlie good lady who bears our name,
and hugging the little McCarty*,
“Dennis” fell asleep, to dream how
long Columbus would remain un old
fogie way station, hugging the lulllu
' dilation that time will work wonders,
and the oldest inhabitant, would hag
no more the antequuted dogma of a
dreamy philosophy, proving Colum
bus will one of these days be some
thing “some pumpkins’’—without
the aid of capital human pluck on
exertions.
