Wc were glad to see In the elty ME W. K. Muinford, editor of that ster ling am) tollable Uefemler of Geor gia’s interest, the Talbotton titan (bird. Mr. Muutford, though a young inun siiows a decided ability to run a Hint, clans jiajier. Our merchants who would lik'■ to inalte themselves known in Talbot ton and surrounding country, can find no better medium than the Standard, and wo hope his paper muy continue to be liberally patron ized by them. . • • 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. ~_C “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 .An trnal. ' —• — . 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.” ;To ( olonilma, Opelika. 4lnnt**lncr> nml I nton springs by Mall. I.gprclsl Ccrttsisjndtner PnlT IMn.J HvitmiiiJßi iidee. Ala., Jan. 30. 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. ltes|H ctfully und truly, Dennis M'Cabty. tiEUKDIA \UV.
