From Dom ,Piatt's letter 10 tie Cincinnati
COMMERCIAL
Georgia.


Georgia.
ARLINGTON House, Dec. %, 1869.
This State, which holds its revolt in
perpetual solution, has been recon
structed for the sixteenth time. Each
time it was promised TO be final re-
construction. The bill now law was
briefly debated in the Fogbank, and
hurried through rapidly Us the intense
dignity of that body would admit; and
IN the Cave the measure had short,
stormy passage TO the condition OF law.
1t was guided by my honorable friend,
Mr.. Tappertit Mirsbeau, and opposed
by the ornate Bingham, who brought
"the gathered wisdom Of thousand
years and the organized ignorance of
the Democracy to bear in vain. The
belligerent Benjamin ct. B. aforesaid
backed by the solid columns of Repub
lican members, bulled the stock
through, and Georgia is again recon-
structed.
And how long will she remain recon
structedl To answer this interesting
question correctly, oDsmust take a phil
osophical look at the situation. We
have coma to recognize the fact, at last,
that there is in every community gov
erniDg element that sooner or later finds
its way to the surface aud takes control.
We may legislate this element down as
often as We please, and yet, in spite of
our legislation, il will in the end assert
its supremacy. For over halfa century
this element has made itself manifest at
the South to all the world. For that
time 1t not only governed the South, but
held It's own in tho Union. Aud after
voluntary resignation of an almost de-
spotic power in the councils OF the ma
ton, il organized vast armies and as
tonished the world by its energy, cour-
age and resources This element returns
to the Union. and the task self assigned
rs is not to destroy, but to keep 1T I'M
der. That is, reverse, and put the here
toflre governed elements on top.
There is a toy, common among chill
dren, that consists Of a grotesque little
figure, with lead in its seat, that will
keep it in certain position. You tum,
bic it over, you put 1t head down, and
in few second, as after some reflection,
the absurd thing bounces up III the
limberest manner. This illustrates re-
construc ion. So long as we sit on the
figure, or load il down with muskets
and cannon, it remains PROSTATE. But
the moment we remove the burden, the
figure assumes its upright position, with
the head and seat in their predestined
position.
There is, after all, more force in public
opinion than in "be il enacted" the
South has been guilty of opposition,
cruelty aud other wrongs innumerable,
and, what is worse, of follies beyond
count. 1t can only be, shamed into
good behavior by the slow moving finger
OF public scorn. BE it enacted" only
aggravates, unless we do as other coun.
tries have done to conquer a province,
anpihilate the government.

Victor Hugo on Napoleon.

The famous Radical paper of Paris,
the Rappd of December Sd, contains an
attack 10y Victor Hugo on the Emperor
of the French. 1t takes the form of a
"Reminiscences of the events of two re-
markable days, the Goth of December,
lS4S, and the ID of December, 1851, on
the first of which Louis Napoleon was
inaugurated President of the National
Constituent Assembly, and on the sec
ond issued his edict dlssolving the same
assembly. The article closes as follows:
We are in Russia. TheNeva is frozen.
Houses are built thereon; carriages roll
over its surface. 1t is no longer water;
il is rock. The people cross and recross
this marble which has been a river. A
village has been improvised; streets are
traced, taverDs are opened; and the peo-
pie buy, drink, eat, sleep and light fires
on this water. They can do all they
like. Fear not to do as you please;
laugh and dance; it is more solid than
the land. Truly this sounds under foot
as granite, rire rhirer' (Winter), rire Ia
glaze QCe); they are there forever.
Look at the heavens, is it day. is it
night1 A dim and wan light trails
along the snow; IT would be said the sun
is dying.
No! thou disst not, Liberty. Oae of
these days, at the moment least expect-
ed, at the hour even when Won
shall be the most profoundly forgotten.
You will rise! Oh, all at ones, DAZZLING
brilliency! your starry face WHY leave
the earth and render the horizon re-.
splendent. On all this snow, this Ice
this hard and white plain, this water
become solid, on all this Infamous win
ter you will throw your golden arrow,
your heat and brilliant rays slight,
heat, life. Then hear! listen TO this
profound and terrible cracking. 1t is
the thaw! The Neva is breakiRg up,
the river is retaking its course-the
water, living, joyous and irresistible
raises the hldeOus and deadly ice,
and breaks it. 1t was gran.
lite, You tell me; see, it breaks like
glass! 1T is the thaw," you say; it
Is truth returning, it Is progress recon-
mencing, it Is humanity which is ON the
advance, and sweeps, tears, carries,
PUSHES, mingles, destroys and browns in
its waves, As the miserable furniture of
q hovel, not only the new empire of
Louis Bonaparte, but all the construc
tions and works of ancient despotism.
Look at all that is passing. 1t will dis
appear as ever. You will never see it
again. That book half submerged is the
old code of iniquity; this stool which is
being engulpbed is the throne; the other
also sinking is the scaffold. For this
great overwhelming and supreme VIC
tory of life over death what is necessa.

thy rays, o Liberty!

The Complexion.

Nothing is moro essential to beauty than a
clear and beautiful complexion. Any disease
of the skin in the way Of pimples, blotches, &c,
defaoes the most regular features and detracts
from the otherwise most captivating form.
These skin diseases all result from some inpu,
rity in the blood and this impurity must be re-
moved before nature will properly do its work.
'IRISIN," the great blood purifier acts directly
on the blood and is the best remedy and anti
dote for poisons in the vital current ever dis
covered. For diseases peculiar to women it has
no equal. Try it. decl5-lmdsw
