VNliE undersigned is Agent for the UNIVER-

ever offered in the market, with or without Cog
Wheels.
This wonderful invention has become an indis-
pensabie comfort to housekeepers. Clothes which
have the water pressed out by this machine wear
nearly twice as long as when twisted and strained
by the usual hand wringing. In an ordinary New
England family 1t will pay for itself in four or
six months, by the saving in the and tear Of
clothes in washing. 1t will wiring anything, from
a lace collar to the largest bed quilt.
The following are the sizes, and prices, usually
sold:
No. wrinser, without cog wheels, $3.50
u $50
2 with cog wheels, $50
The No. is recommended as preferable to all
offers, as by the use of the cog wheels all strain

vented, besides the wIinger itself will wear much
longer.

MAR1AyILLE, Dec. 23d. 1865.


Just now when the substantials Of life
are more expensive than during any year
for the last thirty past, and many ministers
feel the need of money to purchase with,
as well as sympathy to make the emp joy
full. God has moved upon the hearts of his
people, in many places. to aid their pas
tors in this two-fold sense. On We'd
nesday eve. Dec. Goth. while the pastor
and wife were spending few hours in
social visit at a brothers. house near by, a
messenger called, and left hastily. leaving
word for the pastor, that he had company
come who wished to see him.
On returning home he was greatly sur
prised to find the house thronged with
joyful Pensioners, and large table
spread with the choicest danties. After a
few moments had passed in social greet
ings. and words of cheer and sympathy
were interchanged, the company were
invited to sit down to the repast And
the PASTORS surprise was by no means
lessencd on finding, under his plate, in
letter envelopes, seventy-three dollars and
fifty cts. Sixty-five partook bountifully
from the loaded tables without giving them
the appearance of leanness or restitution.
Some two hours passed in the most pleas
ing way imaginable mingled at intervals
with music.
: Appropriate remarks were made and
thanks offered to the Giver of all blessings,
after which the company departed leaving
a good proportion of yaluables and one
dollar more in cash. c. c.

The loyal Georgian., 1866-01-20

We shall especially encourage educa
;fJn and impro, ement among the coiored
population. Experience has shown that
those iaborers are best who are most
intelligent; and that country most pros
porous, whose people are the most en-
ljghtened. The more intelligent man
is, the more wants he has, and, the more
wants lie has,. the more industrious he
will be, in order to satisfy the same. If
a mans wants are'compressed within the
small limits Of peck of meal and three
pounds OF bacon per week, to live in a
miserable cabin and be dressed in rags,
the natural laziness of mankind will in
duce him to labor as little as possible;
but if he has de,ire. to cat palatable
food and to live and dress like civilized
being, these more numerous wants will
overcome his natural Incidence and urge
him to labor in order to meet these wants,
1t aOaS for the interest of the master to
keep the SIa0e in ignorance, it as for the
interest of the same class to educate the
fir, edman. Heretofore the colo!ed man
was unable to obtain an education, now,
that an opportunity is presented, we
wish, by every possible motive to urge
upon him its Importance. Believing, that
if either class Of the population shall fail
to do its part, the State must suffer, we
shall not cease to urge upon both their
reciprocal duties
Two races inhabit this State, which
have heretofore lived together as master
and slave; in their changed relations,
we shall not only do nothing to create a
disturbance between them, but shall use
our influence to settle any difficulty that
may arise.
Believing that permanent peace and
happiness can be secured to the State,
only by giving equal rights to every man,
without regard to race, descent or color,
we shall labor peaceably but earnestly,
for the accomplishment of this object.
Our effort shall be not only to assist in
making Georgia the most prosperous and
wealthy Stale of the South, but to make
it the Empire State of the UDion. We
appeal to the nobler feelings of those in
power, promising them rthsaat-.ia ss;;'sisp
justic to the oppressed, they shall, at the
same time, strengthen themselves.
Nearly half of the inhabitants of the
State are without an organ. At present
the advice they receive comes partly from
publice speakers, and partly from private
conversation. Every thinking person must
be conscious that the welfare of the State
demands that wise counsel be given to
all its citizens. This paper, established
as it is by State Association, will cir~
culate in every country, and will seek by
every means in its power, to promote the
interest and advance the prosperity Of
the State. We appeal to all good citizens
to aid us in the arduous task now before
us.

GRUMBLER.

He grumblcs in the morning
On rising from his bed,
He grumbles at his breakfast
While spreading butter on his bread,
He grumbles at his napkin,
He grumbles at his knife,
He grumbles at the tablecloth,
And grunbles at his wife.
He grumbles at the paper
While he s reading DER the news,
He grumbles at the cobbler
When he buys pair of shoes;
He grumbles at the clock
When it strikes out the hour,
AMI he grnmbles at the deluge,
When there comes little shower,
He grumbles at the children
When they re playing in the street,
He grumblps at the butcher
At the way he GUS the meat;
He grumbles at his little dog,
fit only wags its tail,
And when the wind gently blows,
He grumbles at the gale.
He grumbles when bill comes in,
No matter how very small,
He grumbes at the servants,
He grumbles at US all;
He grumbles at the darkness
When he has to light the gas,
And he grumbles at the matches,
The unhappy grumbling ass.
He grumbles at the prices,
He grumblcs at his socks,
He grumbes at his feet
When he needs pair of socks,
He grumbles at the summer
When the sun is rather warm,
And he grumbles at the winter,
Every time we have storm.
He grumbles at question,
He grumbles at smile,
At church, he grumbles at the people
Who are standing in the aisle;
He grumbles at his daughter
When she wants little money,
And he grumbles when she laughs
At anything very funny
He grumbles at the rich man,
He grumbles at the poor,
lie grumbles at the beggars
When they knock upon his door;
He grumbles at the rent day
When the landlord s to be paid,
He grumbles in the sunshine,
He goumblcs III the shade.
He grumbles at his neighbor
When he s getting in his coal,
sIIcgrumbles at the cartmaD,
who dumps it down the hole. p

And he grunibles at crumb of bread,
If it falls upon the floor.

He grumb!es on the stairs,
He grumbles all the way to church,
He grumbles after prayers:
He grumbles in bis sleep
While he's lying iu his bed,'
And l often fancy to myself
He III grumble when he S dead.

(COMMUNICATED.(

We learn that reports reached Gene
raj Tillson's Office few days since, that
falsehoods were being circulated in Wilkes
county respec ing the intentions and
purposes of the Freedmen's Bureau, in
consequence of which, freed people had
been induced to make contracts which
did not give them reasonable compensa-
| tion for their labor, ranging from So to
So per monts. It was stated that they
were sent by the Bureau to Mississippi
and South Western Georgia; were sold
into slavery, and that the women were
drowned; that the Bureau had an inte-
rest in South Western Georgia, and there
fore desired to send laborers to that por-
tion of the State.
Upon receiving undeniable proof that
such stories were being circulated to de.
ceive the freed people, Gen. Tillson sent
Lieut. Pratt with squad of soldiers to
Washington, Wilkes county, to make
known the fact that all contracts made in
pursuance of such Misrepresentation,
were null and void.
Reports have been received from Lieut..
Pratt, that the planters of Wilkes county
are coming in from all directions to re
contract with their laborers, and are now
willing to give them reasonable pay
they further acknowledge that the prices
at which they had contracted with the
| freed people were inadequate and un-
lust.
