DAILY OBSERVER. V JOI1KSTONE JONES, ; "II Editor and Proprietor Sunday, ,' January 11. 1874. Attorney General Williams. President Grant in. withdrawing tlie nomination of Williams to be Chief Justice, has yielded to thepub feeling of the country. The nomi nation was almost universally con demned, t Williams was considered unfit for the high office being too ignorant, and generally unworthy and inefficient. Some will praise the President for doing this thing. His fugle-men will do doubt sound his praises, for yielding to the will of the people. He deserves no credit. He has but made a virtue of necessity. - He did all he could to force his favorite up on the country. He even visited the Capitol, called for the Judiciary Com mittee, and endeavored to coerce them into obedience to his will. He failed to accomplish his . obj;-t, be cause the politicians composing tle mm mi tripe did not dare recommend the Senate to confirm the nomina tion .of one so glaringly ignorant inefficient and unworthy the robes that have been worn by. Chase, and Taney, and Marshall. In the face of certain defeat it was prudent in the President to withdraw the nomina tion. Who will be the next nominee? is the question now, on the lips of thou sands. It is rumored that Caleb Gushing will be the fortunate one. He stands pre-eminent among the lawyers who are seeking the honored Beat of Chase: It is not certain, however, that he is Grant's next choice. The Supplemental Civil Eights Bill What id known as the Supple-. mental Civil Rights Bill, is entitled "A bill to protect all citizens in their civil and legal rights." The. following is the full text of the bill: "Be H enacted by the Srnate and House of Jlepresentatives of the United &tilP4 of America, in Congress assembled, That, whoever, being a corporation or natural person, and owner, or in charge of any public inn; or of any place of public amusement or enter tainment for which a license from any legal authority is required; or of any line of stage coaches, railroad or othermieans of public carriage of passengers or freight; or of any cem etery, or other benevolent institu tions, or any public school, support ed in whole or in part, at public expense or by endowment for public use, shall make any distinction as to admission or accommodation there in, of any citizen of the United States, because of race, color or previous condition of servitude, shall, on con viction thereof, be fined not less than one hundred nor more than five thousand dollars for .each offense; and the person or corporation so offending shall be liable to the citi zens thereby injured, in damages to be recovered in action of debt. "Sec. 2. That the offences under this act, and actions to recover dam ages, may be prosecuted before any territorial district or Circuit Court of the United States having jurisdic tion of crimes at the place where the offence was charged to have been committed, as well as in the district where the parties may reside, as now provided by law. Suffering Louisiana. In Congress, n Wednesday, Mon roe, of Ohio, from the comfnittee on education and labor, reported back adversely the resolution offered by Sypher, of Louisiana, directing. army rations to be issued for the relief of the starving poor in the Southern -States. Tie committee had talked over the matter fully and freely, and i the result arrived at was that the committee did not regard it as the proper sphere of Congress to enter into a general system of providing for pauperism in the States. If this precedent was established, it would Boon be found that' Congress had entered on the whole business of taking charge of pauperism general ly throughout' the States. The re port was adopted and the committee was discharged from the further con sideration of the subject. The attention of Congress is more occupied, perhaps, with - the discus sion of the salary grab question, than anything else. Evidently, the Solons , at Washington think more of their pay than of the interests of the conn- try. It is a pity that. the wages of these Congressional hirelings' were not fixed by a Constitutional Amend ment, so a to cut off all future dis t. pute on the subject." ' ;. .The Farmers of New Hampshire nun ucuieveu a iriumpn, oi consider able significance. - The Republican Convention has nominated for Gov- ; .ernor to succeed Straw,' the present uoyernor, ueneral McClutchine, man described as being "an everyday farmer, a practical tiller of the soil. and as. homely a man as can be ul , ' i : found m a day's walk,' ' ; Governor Moses" andB taff1h e other day visited the guard house in Charleston. .

Dr, Sears, agent ef the Teabody Fund, in arecent'ettersays : "Noth ing more important, nothing more conciliating, could be done by Con gress for the Southern States than to make a liberal appropriation for the public free schools.

'. : vv-. -Tlarraganr of Texasr- 1 WhenEdmund Burke wanted to emphasize he disappearance of chivalry frbnnEurope and to sbow what kind:fUhing the! French Rev olution had brought, be flourished a dagger befojeVt he English House of Commons'Avhich he was then ad dressing. As a piece of k dramatic effect it told upon the House; cheer after cheer resounded as he waved the .weapon in air. Claptrap or not, it was successfuF for the moment, and success, we all know, is a gen; ersitor of imitation. So, froni Burke we 'come down to Flanagan; ;frm the votary of chivalry to the idpfizer of greenbacks; from 'the. impassioned idealist to the sordid salary grabber. AVe hav,e been searching for a type of the salary -grabber, and we thought that iu General Butler we had him; but it seems not. There is, it would appear a mountainous audacity tvhich Ben Butler, piled on Pig Iron Kelley, would not equal in height. mat sleep inaiviauaiity is r lauagau, of Flanagan's Mills, Texas. No dagger did he flourish in the face of the astounded Senators; no weird terror, of Jacolin mobs, laying un clean and bloody hands on anointed kings and queens, did he summon up; no vibrating appeal for ten thousand swords to leap from their scabbards to avenge the decapitated AutficUitnne did he make. Oh, no ! Flanagau was as original as he could be. Clearing It is m elodious throat, he made a speech on the salary grab, which, despite its briefness, shall live beside Burke on chivalry for the de light of generation to come. Sena tor Flanagan, as he cleared his melo dious throat to make this speech, was a picture for the pencil or an artist. Like the Knight oi La JNlan eha, the creatures of his visions crowded around and thickened the air in his vicinity. The sheeted ghost of Credit Mobillier jibbered on the back of his Chair; the disembod ied spirits of railroad, land and claim jobs flitted circling around the cham pion salary-grabber as he cleared his melodious throat to begin. He was about to speak in behalf of the meanest and most furtive piece of legislation which Congress had ever passed, and what more appropriate than that he should scorn all the subterfuges, dodges and shifts under which his predecessors on the same side of the argument had disguised their intentions. "If there was any guilt in the grab, I am guilty." Here is no humbug. Flanagan, of Flanagan's Mills, Texas, lias put himself clear on the record. He voted for the increase because it was bringing more giist to Flanagan's mill, and his only regret at the time was that it did not bring more. Many a weak-kneed 'Senator and Representative who has become sor ry for taking back pay will admire the firmness of Flanagan. Flanagan was on the lookuut for Number One, and he never changed his opinion regarding what would benefit that primary numeral. Therefore, he says it was out of the purest motives he voted for the salary grab, ihe age of grabbing he had reason to fear was gone: for he was left alone to champion it. Laying his left hand upon a bulging spot over his heart, then placing his right1 hand inside his coat he drew forth like a lightning flash his back pay in gen uine greenbacks. They made a goodly pile, and as he shook them under the noses of the more squeam ish Senators they lqoked like the pictun s of lightning in the hands of Jupiter. "Here they are, sir; this is my pay ; I ant going to fight for it to the. last.'! . Such -were vthe fiery words of Flanagan. He went on to say that the people objected more to the Credit Mobillier thieves thrsn the salary stealers. He thought Oakes Ames a good enough man, "one. of the best be ever knew," which will not be taken as a very valuable certificate of character for the rest of his acquaintances. It Was the demagogues, he thought, who preferred the indictment against the stealers. We need not take his word for this. Senator Carpenter said it was the voice of the people which frightened the money in his pocket. Be that as it may, Flana gan, of Flanagan's Mills, Senator from Texas, has stepped, in astriking position into the niche kept vacant for the ideal salary grabber. N.Y. Herald. MISCBLLANGOU9 ITEMS.

V'MWf't L5 ; : Hixcd S ch.o ols On the subject of Mixed Schools, Mr. Stephens in his great speech said: - I do not believe the colored peo ple of Georgia Have any desire for mixed schodls, and very (little, in deed, for mixed churches as contem plated by this measure. The ten dency on their part, throughout the State, in all, the religious denomina tions, except the Catholic, is to. gen erate -from the Whites in church as sociation and organization:' In all instances, within my knowledge, the whites' have been perfectly willing, and even solicitous, for them to re main, and worship in same houses and before the same altars ; but they preferred to go to themselves. So with the schools. They have no de sire or wish for mixed schools com posed of white and colored children. All they want is their righ and just participation in the common school fund in schools of their own. This they now have in Georgia. They al so have a university for themselves at Atlanta, aided by the State, as the State University for whites is in like manner aided by the State. They have no desire for anyhting partakipg of the character of social rights ; and if the people, colored and white, in the several Southern States, shall be left to themselves to work out their own destiny under the present system, subject alone to the control ling law of justice, as before stated, without external influence of any sort, it will, in my judgment, be in finitely better -for both races. Recip rocal wants and duties .will soon, of themselves, bring about as much harmony and concord as are usually found in any State or country. And in this connection, I have no hesi tancy in giving it as my deliberate opinion, that there is not a colored man in Georgia who knows me (and my acquaintance with that class is not very limited) who would not come to me for a personal favor, or personal counsel, or in case of real grievance for a redress of personal wrongs, with more confidence in my having justice secured to him, than to any '.'carpet-bagger" in the State, however industrious he my be in sowing the seeds f discord between the races, and vociferous in advocat ing the doctrines Of the "Civil Rights Bill," so-called. It is stated by the Washington correspondent of the New York Her ald that the President is opposed to the Civil Jiigkts Bill for reasons which that writer sets forth at length iu his last letter from the Capital. The Herald editorially says that ho tels and public conveyances should be thrown open to the negroes. In addition to this the Washington lie publican reminds Gen. Kemper that the President stands pledged to this measure. Let us hope that the cor respondent of the Herald is right in the statement wich he makes with such minuteness and precision. Advices from New Orleans says that the members of the House Ju diciary Committee, now engaged in taking testimony there respecting the charges against Judge Durell, will conclude their labors this week. The investigation has been conduct ed with closed doors, but enough in formation has leaked out to warrant the assertion that impeachment of Judge Durell is cert?. in. The London Lancet is of the opin ion that protracted labor at the sew ing machine is decidedly injurious. The workers sufier from nervous debility and exhaustion which bring on more serious diseases. SIATIC CHOLERA IN CHINA. Almost Every Case Cured With PAIN - KILLER! Dear StR8 : During a residence of some ten years in Siam u'mi China, as a mission ary," 1 1'ound your Pain-Killer a most val uable remedy for that fearful scourge, the Cholera.
