DAILY TIMES. Colu Otto TUESDAY MARCH 2, 1875. €. 11. WILLIAMI, - • Kditr. Tk Ofllce Id iu Gnuby's Building (up-iUim), on St. Clair •trt. LARGEST DAILY CIRCULATION EVEN HIIKNK THAN TUB CIVIL HICIIIs When the Civil llitfhta bill i>UH.sod the Houßft everybody was Indignant, and when they learn that it hu now panned both houses of Congress, and la only awaiting the signature of the President before it boeornes a law, they will be still more so; but their indignation and resentment will be overwhelming now that the addition al outrage of the Foree bill has been put upon them. In tho name of high Heaven, what next? There are but few of our jieople who fully eomprehond the effect of this Foree bill. It is a bill that orig inated out of tho slime and tilth of the Radical euueus, and provides the severest and most extreme punish ment for the slightest offences against any of the “wards of the nation." The originul bill provided that the President should huve the power to susi>end the writ, of habeas corpus in any of the States lately In rebellion. Tho bill us passed affects all the Southern States alike, except in tho section giving tho President tho pow er to suspend the habeas corpus, the IK)wer is eonllued to the States of Louisiana, Mississippi, Arkansas and Alabama. In any of these four States for the next two years the President can and will suspend the writ. This Is in substance the provisions of tills venomous bill. The last ves tige of rights left to these Staten lias been taken away the right to have a hearing. Now that Oils Is denied them, they can bo kopt by the mili tary In dungeons until the expiration of the two yoars, or until it suits tho wishes of Grant and his cowardly minions. Now tho full hand of the Administration is exposed, and it no longer remains a question as to the motive of such legislation. It is tho fixed and determined plan of the North to keep the South unsettled In order to revive the war issues at the North, and with this infamous hill they propose to harass tho people of the South into making a disturbance, so that they can cry out “murders in the South, and rebellion on her bor ders !” All this kind of oppression hue lieen brought about by the carpet baggers and eorresiKindentsof North ern papers. We have been slandered day after day, and extracts have been republished at the North written by the Northern men who have enjoyed our confidence und support, and now we feel their sting. Maybe we are “uncivilized” und “murderers”in the eyes of some, hut if ever a people liad the right to become reckless and stubborn, such measures as this Force bill Is a sufficient excuse, and to such frequent and uncalled for attacks on the South wo are indebted for this last piece of oppression. The jieople of each State in the South will soon learn those who have furnished the dagger with which to make the un manly stabs that have been made upon their fair escutcheons, and then their masks will be torn from their faces, and their true characters re vealed to the scrutiny of an outraged, slandered and übused people. The Centennial Humbug. In about another year the nation is to huve a Centennial celebration, which of course can only be a farce and a humbug. The idea of a Cen tennial celebration, that we may boast of our glorious Union to the world as having lived one century, when the structure of our govern ment is rotten from base to dome. Grant uud his allies getting up a cel ebration with great eclat, and with the foot of the oppressor on the nook of Louisiana, Mississippi and Arkan sas, three of the proudest States in America, und either one containing more patriotism, virtue and intelli gence than the radicalism of the North combined. Tho pious and truly loyul Pennsyl vanians of course have no interest In tho matter, further than an attempt to 1111 their pockets with filthy lucre by its patriotic (?) observance. They must be a little chagrined at tho utter indifference ami contempt of the South for this swindling affair. There lias been a time in the histo ry of the government when wo would have grown sentimental and enthusi astic over tho long life of the Union, but now our smiles of joy would be turned into weeping by the surround ing scenes of our oppression and the Union’s degradation. Our applause would bo deafened by tho groans of bleeding Louisiana, and our grutiti catiou would bo marred by the fear that Georgia would be the next vic tim of Northern hate and fanaticism. No, it is a mockery upon the Union that Washington founded, and a libel upon the declaration Jefferson framed; so we cannot join them, and it seems the balance of t he South are of the same opinion. Sueepiho Cab Risks.—ln tho Now Marine Court, on Saturday, Judge Jonchirasen, in the case of Polweter vs. the Central Sleeping Car Com pany, decided that the oouiainy is bound to have care that a passenger is protected in his person and in tho property about his person during his sleep. The company sells a passen ger something more than the use of a mattress, etc.; they soli the protec tion of a conductor and porters, and by this hitter act indicate their re- j sponsibillty to keep away depredat-; ore upon the person and property of the passengers. An eminent foreign doctor asserts that the drinking of coffee invigor ates and preserves the sight, and so prevents the use of spectacles. Choc olate is considered injurious. Ol II ATLANTA LETTER, Special CoryPpaSkc* D,u.T Tme.) Atlanta, Fob. 28, l7r>. Tiii* will probably be my last, epis tlo to you during the stay of the Leg islature; for, at last, that body is about to adjourn and go home whore they should have been for tho last forty days. But they have done all the harm to the State they can possi bly do, and it is now generally con sidered that they have spoken more, and accomplished loss, than any other previous Legislature, or than any subsequent Legislature will ever do. In making this remark, howev er, I want myself understood by you and your readers as not intending to cast any reflection upon the members individually, and more especially as not censuring a number of Intelligent and upright men who partly compose that body, and who have exerted all their influence und energies to ac complish good to the State. The Finance Committee tackled Jack Jones’ account with tho Treasu ry and made a great fuss, but it turn ed out all feathers; and on Monday, when the Legislature adjourns, Jones will be os clear of any stain upon his character as either of that grand committee who arraigned him for im peachment, and who'flnally were sat isfied to pass a vote of censure on his system of book-keeping. There were men on that committee who would not know a “ledger” from a “jour nal,” and who were otherwise thor oughly incompetent to judge of book keeping. Jones lias cleaned out the entire committee, and is now cock of the walk. The people up here, and all that stopped here during the in vestigation, were on the side of "honest Jack Jones.” Tho bill to change the charter of Columbus, as you have seen by the dispatches, wus lost; so also tho bill in the Interest of your .Sheriff. This latter bill passed the House, but in the Senate it met its death. I have heretofore said but little in praise of your immediate Representa tives, for the reason that I thought it was superfluous, but in this closing letter I must be excused for congrat ulating Muscogee county in the se lection of their Representatives, Messrs. W. F. Williams and T. W. Grimes. Judge Williams is certainly a man of large experience in legal matters, and at all timesshowed him self equal to the questions relating to tho code. Mr. Grimes lias won for himself and his county golden opinions, and is looked upon by ids associates as one of the rising men of tlie State. In debato he has proved himself the equal of many of the old er giants of the House, and always handled his subject in a concise and masterly manner. Be it said to the credit of both that they introduced no bills calculated to encumber the statute books, or to run the State to a useless exjxmse by introducing cross road measures. B. H. Crawford, the Senator from your district, was hero last term, and his conduct here now has only en hanced the respect he received from the Senate for his ability as a finan cier and jurist. If all the members of the Legislature had been made of such Representatives as was found in your delegation, and those from Ma con, Savannah and Augusta, the body would not now be the laughing-stock of the State. The weather in these parts has been fine for the past few days, but Atlanta is in a slosh mud kuee-deep in some places, and pools of water in some of the streets. The hotel business here has been good, and I know they will look de serted when the members, clerks and lobby leave. If the Legislature prolongs will write yon again. Good-bye. Occasional. A “declaration,” signed by five thousand clergymen nnd addressed to the bishops of the Anglican Church, has been published in London. This has brought out the Ritualists, who have obtained nearly fifteen hundred signatures of clergymen to a "coun ter-declaration” in favor of the use of cuoharistlo vestments and a more elaborate ceremonial. It is said that the real battle of the two parties will not be in convocation, but in Parlia ment. On the 18th and 19th, Thurs day and Friday of last week, a con ference of the Low Church party was called to meet in London. The Advertiser has tho following: “The latest accessions to tho Re formed Episcopal Church include the Rev. J. Howard Smith, late the rector of the Protestant Episcopal Church, Knoxville, Tenn.; the Rev. William Bowen, Into the assistant clergyman of the Protestant Epiaoopal Church of St. Luke, Philadelphia; the Rev. G. A. Riddles, late the rector of the Protestant Episcopal Church at Mt. Airy, Penn ; the Rev. Benj. Johnson, tho rector of the Protestant Episco l>al Church at Macon, Georgia, and the Rev. E. H. Jenkins, of Pembroke, Ontario, Canada.” Errata.— ln our editorial in Sun day’s paper are several mistakes, the result of an accident. The most im portant one, however, is the one in which we wore made to say “our mer chants are unable to supply, etc.,” We wrote, and so intended, that our merchants had bought at the very lowest prices, and were able so supply the wholesale trade of Columbus, and adjacent counties. The word “lust” was set up by the printer for the word “taste.” —. . A recent decision of the patent office indicates that no more patents for medical compounds will be granted. The examiner refuses a 1 intent, first, because the applicant had not Invented or discovered any thing; second, because the alleged invention was not useful; and third, because the production of this and similar preparations is a mere matter of skill. Uraiit Wraiii lu llun lor a Third Term. That, wise nnd penetrating observ er, Mr. J. S. Pike, of Maine, writes from Washington to the New York Tribune in a very clear and convinc ing manner upon tho design of Grant to bo the Radical candidate for Presi dent in 1870. Wo quote the whole of his letter: . . “One has not to bo long lu Wash ington to discover that all this South ern business means a third term. Gen. Grant means it, and tho whole host of udvouturers whose personal fortunes are bound up in his contin uance in office mean It also. It is a new political feature in our history, but not more strange nor striking than many of tiie events of the last dozen years. Tho incredulity about it is still considerable, because peo ple do not readily believe in wholly now things. It is not unlikely the plan is going to succeed. Gen. Grant has this great advantage. By mak ing himself the agent of violence and repression at tho South, ho secures the undivided support of the blacks and carpet-baggers in the choice of delegates to the national nominating convention. Here is a large funded capital to begin with. With the del egates of all the old slave States in his hands at theoutset, it will be seen that he enters the contest with an immense advantage over every other candidate. It must also be remem bered tlmt this is a blind force, swaved by personal and partisan con siderations merely. It will bo the dead weight of the convention, not amenable to high public considera tions. It is difficult to see how itean be overcome. “The dividing line is already being silently drawn here among the Re publicans on this question, and it is not difficult to trace its windings und its boundaries. The stiff and sure Republican States are at bottom anti- Grant,, anti-third term. They wish to try no rash experiments. They desire to save themselves, if they can not, save the Presidential election. They, therefore, oppose themselves to all political audacities of whatever character, and strive to conciliate the moral and conservative forces which underlie all sound Republicanism. But it will be recognized that the number of such States is compara tively small, and that they are no match in representative force for the body of Southern States. “The Northern States which arc to furnish recruits for the Grant stand ard are States quite differently situa ted. They are States already lost to the Republicans, such as New York, New Jersey, Indiana, and others. Grant delegates from these States can be furnished in any quantity, and the rivalries of competing civilian candidates will swell their number. It is not with them a question of suc cess now, hut of future operations. They would rather throw away their votes on Grant than anybody else, since ills probabilities of success would be worth more to them than anything else within their reach. Then the class of doubtful Northern States, of which Pennsylvania and Ohio may be taken as samples, while they cannot tie so certainly counted on, will nevertheless turn out, a good deal of driftwood that will follow the strongest current. Ho that all things considered, looking to the Htates alone, Grant’s chances seem to be altogether better for a nomination than those of anybody eise in the Re publican ranks. “This view receives confirmation in a very striking manner by the reti cence of leading Republicans. Very few openly sav anything against the third term. In fact nobody except such ns are ready to break with the Administration. Everybody is afraid of that, It, affects them in their party relations, and brings down partisan hostility, which lew have the intrepidity 10 defy. It is an abasement thatall politicians suffer, rather than endanger their places. It is not manly, it is not honorable, but it is human. It is a great misfortune that people iu public life cannot bo Independent and cannot say just what they think. Geu. Grant domi nates the leading Repulicans very much as Clay used to dominate the obi Whigs, though from very differ ent reasons. Clay was a leader and dictator by virtue of his genius; Grant is so by reason of his place. The latter has all the jiatronage of the country at his disposal, and a hacking of popular favor among the rank and file. Between the two he makes himself formidable, especially so through the exercise of his military qualities of pertinacity and obsti nacy. “Whoever, therefore, would under stand the political situation, and de sire to know the reason of the extra ordinary policy being pursued, and to be, apparently, still further pursued with Southern States, must recognize the facts Itore presented. They are the key to the position. It is a bold push for the third term.” ÜBOHAiI.A NBAS-. Albany has a brass band.

The circumstances are suspicious, and a post mortem examination lias been determined upon. —The Advertiser says a young man by the name of Webster Wagner, ; from Charleston, nephew of ex-: Mayor Wagner, of that city, attempt-1 ed to commit suicide at Savannah on Friday by swallowing an ounce of ; iaudaiium.
