LARGEST DAILY CHOTTLATION
In ’Uy ami MiiltnrhM.
Col. minimum's fjtittrr.
In another column will bo found a
lettor written to the Macon T<’h‘(iro[ih
by Col. Hardeman, on the Civil Bight#
bill. Wo Invito the attention of the
public to that able letter, us its care
ful perusal will call to mind the ex
treme exgleneles of the day. It is
replete with common sense, and
squarely moots the demands of the
occasion. Wo like to read such things,
for they evidence a bold stand in the
mutter, which few men are willing to
take just now.
Bead It, und lind the sentiments of
the Times. We are not afraid to en
dorse his sentiments in full, and
would have advocated the same
plan, hut that we found his advance
ideas letter stated than we can
put them. If the negro will in
sist upon civil rights, let him
huve the full enjoyment in the way
of paying frtxos and supporting
the Government. If these people are
to be made the equals of the intelli
gence, wealth, and owners of the soil,
let them at least pay their propor
tionate share of the expenses of the
Government.
More especially do we endorse the
sentiments of the writer in giving
them'fho equal privilege of support
ing, and educating their own race.
Wo think a fair interpretation of the
the Civil liights bill, will force us to
allow them the privilege of paying
taxes, and educating themselves. We
ate pointedly In favor of the negro
taking caro of himself, and if he
can't do it, the Government may as
sume tlio Husk. We would like to see
the faces harmonize on the basis of
our superiority, and their inwjitm.tty,
otherwise, we have no terms to pro
pose.
mil lllitlil, In New York.
Tho Now York Tribune says the
theatre managers, hotel-keepers and
proprietors of restaurants are dis
turbed by the passage of the Civil
ltlghts bill. Tho action of Congress
was mount to oppress tho South, but
it may bo ruinous to the North, espe
cially in those cities which entertain
bo many Southern guests.
Wo are truly glad to hear of such
symptoms.of uneasiness iu the loyal
North. The hotels of Now York are
dependent, to a great extent, on
Southern custom, for they got little
patronage front the Fast. Whenever
a Philadelphia or Massachusetts man
is compelled to visit tho metropolis,
he carries his hineh of Bologna saus
ages and crackers, and sleeps under
t ho bridgo. The few who stop at first
class hotels, don't mind sleeping with
anegro for they were never raised
to know tho difference. The South
ern gentlemen Wild visit New York,
will not tolerate such equality ; and
hence tho Now Y'ork hotels raise the
cry against admitting tho negro.
Thfiy might as well tuko tho nogro
in—for In a fe\V years we will have
direct trade with Europe, and there
will then be a great shortcoming in
the visits of our people to the delect
able metropolis of the North.

This veteran iu the ranks of jour
nalism was in tho city yesterday, and
honored onr office with ills presence.
We were glad to see him, and wish
we had ids cheerful disposition and
gonial demeanor. He represents the
wire grass country in good condition,
with plenty of corn to run them du
ring tho war. He was with the sec
ond Georgia regiment on Tyboe Is
land, and witli many members of I lie
old Columbus Guards talked over the
old times and his errand to board an
English whaling vessel. Ho and
volunteers from tho regiment board
ed the vessel, but the papers were
“tegular,”und to his disappointment
had to "leave her alone.”
Ah, ilv! They say in Washington i
that Mrs. Pinch back lias provided
herself with un elegant wardrobe, and
that she is impatiently awaiting the
final result of Pinch's efforts to ob
tain a seat In tho Senate. In the
event of his success, Madame Piuch
baek proposes to test the question of
social equality, and as tlio ladies say
they will not stand it to have her at
their receptions and entertainments,
there may boa call for more troops.

Slits. Slvua Clarke Gaines is at last
taking active measures to execute tlio
judgments obtained by her against
the city ol Now Orleaus. One of these,
Involving the sum of $140,000 has just
been levied, and tho Now Orleans
Times says that “unless some ar
rangement ean bo made, a large sac
ritloe of tie Interests of the city and
of tho public is inevitable."
Late reports from Egypt state that
tho usefulness of the Suez Canal has
become greatly Impaired through tho
quantity of sand which has been
blown in, and which, if something is
not done before long, will till it up
completely. As it is, large vessels
cannot pass each other, but have to
wait at the ends of tho canal, until
the channel is clear.
There is a cutting down of news pa

'Kusti'l. The Irish potato is not, As
you suppose, indigenous to Ireland.
It was discovered In South Amorlea
by Hi r Walter Baloigh in the sixteenth
century, and like many other plants,
lias been greatly improved by culti
vation. The peculiar ftdaptedness of
the soil und climate of Ireland to tlio
growth of the potato has given it the
name it bears. The great Irish fam
ine of 1848 was caused by the potato
rot.
Antti/iinrij. Thu expression, “from
Can to Beersheba,” is in the Bible,
and has been figuratively applied to
many things and subjects of a com
prehensive nnturo. They were towns
in the extreme northern and southern
portions of Palestine.
IV. T. 11. We do not think any
good could possibly spring from tlio
abolition of the death Jienalty, and
the history of those localities in which
it has been abolished shows an in
crease of crime. We differ, in tolo,
with you in your proposition t hat, as
God “breathed into man’s nostrils
the breath of life, He alone is author
ized to end it.” It strikes us some
thing has been said thus wise: “Who
so sheddeth man’s blood, by man
shall his blood be shed.”
Stiulent. —Light travels 192,000 miles
a second ; electricity 288,000. Of course
these are only approximations, as
such things noeessuriJy always must
bo. The scientific observations made
during the late transit of Venus, re
duce tlie estimated distance of the
sun from tlio earth; making it 88,-
500,000 instead of 95,000,000 of miles,
as heretofore supposed. The sun is
farther from the earth in July than in
January. The difference in temper
ature is on account of the angle ut
which the sun’s rays strike the earth.
('. IF. G.— The expression, El ultimo
xusjriivdel Morn, is Spanish, meaning
“the last sigh of tlio Moor.” The
origin of it was the legend, that after
the expulsion of the Moors from Spain
by the armies of Ferdinand and Isa
bella, the Moorish king, Boabdil el
Chico, ascending a high hill that
overlooked the city of Granada,
paused and heaved a deep sigh.
Thence the expression.
Miss Eugenia G. il'. If your friend
has become offended because of ad
vice asked of, and freely given by
you, the only thing you can do is to
give no cause of offence yourself, and
let her have her own time to find out
tho folly and injustice of her con
duct. It really is very hazardous to
give advice; for Colton, in his “La
con,” says nothing with greater truth
than that “We ask advice; we mean
approbation.” It is much the best,-
before giving it, to ascertain the kind
of advice that is sought of us, and
then give, or refuse to give any at all,
according to circumstances.
Trenton. The expression, “All is
lost save honor,” first occurred in u
letter written by Francis the First, of
France, to his mother. It was upon
the occasion of his disastrous defeat
at Pavla, in Italy, by the combined
armies of the Spaniards and Italians.
His army was utterly routed, and he
himself taken prisoner. Like many
other good tilings, it has been worn
out by frequent ami injudicious use.
Churchman. -The lines you refer
to, were said to have been written by
a man of great genius and imag
ination, who was demented on the
subject of religion. They are as
follows:
Could wo, with ink the ocean till,
And were tlio heavens a nnrchiiieui made;
Were every rood on earth a quill,
And every man a scribe by trade;
To write the love of (4od above,
’Twould drain tho ocean dry
Nor would the scroll contain tho whole.
Though stretched from sky to sky!
We write it from memory, and can
not tell you where it can be found.
The idea is truly beautiful and
sublime.
Wo have received several other
communications, but the answers to
them involve personalities, into which
wo do not propose to enter. In fact,
the idea of n Correspondents’ Column
is navel, and is an innovation in
journalism; and as we see it often
used to strike a man under a cloak,
we have concluded to abolisli it as a
feature in the Times. We will give
any information in our power to all
who write, enclosing postage stamp
for tho reply. Those questions which
are not answered, would, if given a
place and answered, do injustice to
some people. If you have anything
to say about a man, go to him and
say it to his face; don’t strike nt him
in an anonymous and irresponsible
manner.
The Eufaula A Terns alludes to its
Senator, Mr. Goldthwaite, as "an
automaton, who won't open his lips
in defence or his people in the Senate,
and will not resign so as to allow
any one else to do so.”
A number of workmen are now em
ployed at tho .Tardin d’Aeelimation
in the construction of a large pigeon
house, which will have the form of a
tower, as high as the column of the
Palace Yendome. Standing in the
exact centre of the garden, it is to be
made the home of those carrier-pig
eons destined to bring to Paris news
from all parts of France.
A Washington dispatch says: “Re
publican Senators differ in opinion
as to the probable length of the pres
ent session, some maintaining that
tho discussion on the resolution re
cognizing Kellogg and that admitting
Pinchback will prolong the session
to six or eight weeks, while others
are sure that the session will end
within a month.

A process of toughening glass by
heating it to redness and then cooling

Frenchman, and is attracting atten

[For the Timkk,
run talk.
That's tlte kind of talk that, tells.
It's the only kind of talk that’s worth
anything, ft roaches people’s hoods
and goes to their hearts. It burns
and smarts, sometimes, but It probes.
Without wavering or faltering, it
strikes home with tie" truth, ft Is
the truth itself; und is better after ail
than nil the line rhetoric of the schools
or varnished eloquence of the school
men. It is more powerful than all
the linked sweetness and swelling
volume and mellow cadence of high
sounding words. A boiling ulcer may
| bo healed over with soothing plas
ters ; lint, a sharp lancet is often need
ed to effect a permanent cure. It Is
true, too, that an unskilled hand may
so wield that lancet as to irritate
sound flesh ami make a worse sore
than the one it attempts to cure.
There is such a difference betweon
the touch of the scalpel in the hands
of the practiced surgeon and the un
scientific thrust of the same instru
ment in the grasp of a rough bungler!
Yet every surgical quack thinks he is
an adept in his art. His patients,
however, have the painful knowledge
that he is not.
Now everybody fancies that he or
she can talk plainly. This is a gross
mistake that almost everybody
makes. Most people pronounce
abusively when they say they are
speuidng plainly. We never did
believe in abuse. It never yet
worked a euro to any evil, llcforma
tions that are begun in abuse, pro-
voke only vituperation, and accom
plish no good. We all have our
faults, but we don’t like to have them
paraded before everybody’s eyes. We
are just grown-up children in this re
spect, us in many others; kindness
will lead us away from those faults,
while harshness will settle us down,
stubborn in onr sins. What is true
of us as individuals, is also true of us
as a community. That we huve
faults as a community is patent to the
most casual observer; but the man
who reviles us is not the man to pro
voke our love and esteem, and hence
not the man to help us. We can bear
to bo told of our wrongs, we do not
object to seeing them plainly, but we
wish to be approached kindly, and
to be shown a better way. The men
who only point to our shortcomings
and abuse us for them provoke our
righteous disgust. We have no eon-
fideuce in that reformer or that re
formation that uses the prayer of the
Pharisee. That prayer moans just this
in the mouths of many; “O Lord, Ido
thank Thee, that lam not like other
men! I’m not an extortioner, but my
neighbor, Jones, is ; I’m not a
stingy, close-fisted man; (Ido love
my money, right well, at my heart,
but Thou alone seest that, () Lord ;
the world knows I givo liberally),
but the soul of my neighbor Smith
would rattle in a tobacco seed. 1
never meet a beggar on the streets
without giving him something (Thou
alone, O Lord, knowosst how many
I’ve driven away from my door), but
my neighbor Brown passes bv the
orphan and the willow without ever
heeding their plaintive prayers for
alms. ] lead an openly moral and
religious life; Igo to church every
Sunday ami take a front seat; I fast
on all the stated occasions; I give as
much to Thy cause us tho world ex
pects me to give. Before men I’m
all right (Thou ulouo, O Lord, know
cat all those little immoralities in
dulged on the sly), but I know a
dozen men who pretend to live right
and who arc yet often outspoken in
open sin. O Lord, I pray Thee help
me to preserve my good name among
men.”
It is very hard to bo “plain without
being unparliamentary'.” To bo un
parliamentary is to be personal. , In
saying that prayer is not ours, but
the prayer of somebody else, is just
to lodge it wherever it lodges. If we
hail fewer Pharisees we would have
more Publicans. If wo had more
Publicans we would have fewer
Pharisees.

SOME EifIpXABLB WOODS FOnjpL'IVIL
HAOUXEItS.
liditorx iti’leynuih and Otexrruger: —
Now that tlio c ivil rights bill has l>e
eoine a law, and colored people, un
der its provisions are given, as they
suppose, extraordinary privileges and
benefits-for which some of them
have boon clamorous— tho thought 1
forces itself upon me, should not tile
whole race begin to look to their
rights arid powers in the premises?
When a people, with no claims to
social equality, either from birth,
education or position, demand con
gressional aid to thrust themselves
upon those opposed to this attempt
of the general government to lower
their social status, and boldly pro
claim their intention to avail them
selves of these newly conferred rights,
J um convinced in riiy own mind that
those against whom this outrage has
been periictrated, should fall back
upon those rights and privileges of
which they cannot be deprived by an
unjust and oppressive government.
Now what is the true situation of the
colored people? They are poor, gen
erally thriftless ana uneducated.
Dependent upon the white race for
nearly fill the advantages they pos
sess without. our assistance, they
would have but few churches und
their schools would be abandoned for
want of means to support them.
Looking to their advancement, we
have done, and are doing, much to
improve mid elevate them. Yet, re
gardless of our efforts in their behalf,
they are seeking, by the aid of preju-;
diced partisans and u hostile govern-.
ment, to disrupt our social organiza
tion, degrade our society and destroy j
our pl ace. This is tho gratitude they I
exhibit, the return they bring for all 1
nur efforts to elevate their race.
Have we no remedy? Are we power- i
less in this emergency? I think not.
I would not he retaliatory, but i
would no longer nurse the ser]>ent
that wounded tlio bosom that
warmed it. Let their social po
litical and intellectual status be just:
what they make it, and let us hands
off until they learn to appreciate our
efforts in their behalf and show some ;
disposition to realize the I'uct of their
dependence and our ability ami wil
lingness to assist, them. Don’t suffer
them or their partisan friends to say
what "civil right” they will enact in
to law, mid what they will omit.
Don’t consent. That what elevates
and benefits them shall bo stricken
out, and what degrades us shall be
placed upon the statute book. Let
us allow all or none, and determine
at once and forever that upon their
conduct toward us will depend our
bearing toward them. They must
not expect that we will build them
up to pull us down. And when they
begin to assert their new made rights,
let us begin to exercise those yet be
longing to us. Give them equal and
exact justice before the law—protect
their persons and their property but
let them in future pay their part of
the burden of the government. They
will not now expect us to be taxed
for their advancement and elevation,
when they are intent upon subvert
ing our social organization. I would,
therefore, on their first, attempt to
push their claims upon us, stop all
appropriations for their schools
other than those made from the
means they furnish. Let their taxes
other than their just proportion in
carrying on the government be set
aside for their benefit and improve
ment, and that of the whites for the
wants and necessities of tho whites.
The aggregate value of their proper
ty in the State was ¥0,157,798, and the
tax assessed upon it $30,788 99. The
value of the whole property of the
State I’ist year - was $27:1,093,292.
Now deduct theirs, $6,157,798, and
you have the value of the prop
erty of the whites, $266,935,-
494. The tax assessed upon it
$814,027 82; less tax [laid by colored
people. $30,788 99—or, $783,238 s:T,
amount paid by whites. Now, tlio
funds appropriated for school purpo
ses last year by the State was s26s,nut)
—out of which 84,673 white and 37,207
colored children wore schooled, at an
average monthly cost paid by the
State of $1 09 per scholar.
Thus it, will be seen, thut if all the
taxes paid by the colored people
in Georgia was appropriated exclu
sively to the support, of their schools,
it would bo exhausted ill less than
one month. But the school fund is
derived from half yearly rental of tho
Western und Atlantic llailroad, the
poll tax, and some specific taxes.
From rental SISO,(MX); polls, white
115,330, colored 84,220 -from which we
cannot reasonably expect over siini,-
000; about $35,000 of which will be
paid by colored people, or about a
sum sufficient to run their schools
one month in the year. In this coun
ty the showing for them is worse.
The colored people paid last year
State tax S7OB 40; the whites $34,-
734 10. Add to this the county tax.
same amount, and you have tax [raid
by colored people $1,410 80; by the
whites, $69,468 36. From this tax
! 1,274 colored and 1,397 white children
were schooled, nt a cost to the eoun
j try of about s2o,not) per year. As you
1 know, Messrs. Lditors, I have been a
friend to the common school system,
and I want, to see it perfected.'so ev
ery child in Georgia can be educated;
but if these people who exact so
much and puv so little, persist in
I their outrageous demands, 1 shall nt
our next session of the Legislature,
favor a bill that will give them for
1 school purposes just what they pay
j for and no more. To this, theircourse
j will drive us, and if they cannot see
! it in due season, theirs will be the
| fault. 1 have but one desire for the
j colored people, and that is to better
their condition and improve their
race; for this I iiave voted, written,
and spoken, (and for this r am yet
willing to vote, write, and speuki if
they will appreciate the effort.) but,
when they array themselves together
(encouraged by the unconstitutional
laws of an unscrupulous Congress) to
lower the social status of my race,,
and stir up discord and strife.'! can
not consent longer (much ns I wish
to elevate their race) to tax my iieo
ple for their advancement. Let them
In future, if they want “civil rights”
and educational privileges, pay for,
them—for one I will "none of it."
