A Happy New Year to You* Reader. This is the birth day of our Mother Earth. Despite Oriental records, Egyptian monuments, geological attestations, and the calculations of astronomers as to the time light has been traveling from some remote star to visit us, we unhesitatingly declare that our Mother Earth was live thousand eight hundred and sixty-nine years old yesterday, and that to-day is her live thousand eight hundred tnd itfvontleth birth day. Time is necessarily etepud, and has been, and forever will be, an eternal note, to an eternal, omnipresent, omniscient, God.

A new one is about to open.
We now turn our faces southward toward the sun! We surrender ourselves to gin whig imagination and ardent hope, as we prepare to start again upon our rnnual round, in the bright anticipations of the future. We are summoning our companions and making ready; the morning of 1866 has come. Old Mother Earth, our vehicle of passage, is beginning to move, and now the Herald is among you announcing the hour of departure, the Herald that will accompany you on the journey, proclaiming peace and good will to our.Southern brethren ami the rest of mankind.

Tl»e County Defaulters.
But one single case was closed, wtj believojunder the old Court, That 'Was tbo Montgomery county case. The Pepper case, from Franklin, was reversed and sent back for another trial, if we remember rightly. If this was so, but one single case was closed by, the old Court, and, if we are wrong in our recollection as to the PkppKr ease, there were still but two. And the question now is, will the State oflieers do their duty, and sue and recover in these other casps existing all over the State, (as the Journal Says,) or not? If they do not, they ought to be impeached. Strange the Journal should advocate letting defaulters and their securities go scot free at the expense of the State treasury. If there was any chance for the State Printer to get the money, the
Journal would lie fiercely nfter.il.
- • . j ^ J i '. j » The School Law.
At the late expensive and unnecessary special session of the Legislature, a good pieee of work might have, hem tjone in perfecting our extremely defective school law; a law now almost impracticable to execute. A bill was Introduced for this purpose; but a majority of the Republicans would not allow It to pass unless the negroes were allowed to share equally in the school fund with the whites; and on that point, a minority of the Republicans, as in the’ ease oT the liquor LitT,'joined the Democrats and defeated it. Thus the quo«- \ tion stood; no school bill, unless it be a negro school bill, and a negro school bill could not pass. Reason why? No money in it, for the
State Printer! _ The Test Oath. ^
The Macon, Georgia, Telegraph fcayS: Not one of the Georgia delegation to Congress can take this oath. They all participated in the rebellion, into which they were provoked by the refusal of the Northern people to fulfil the obligations imposed by the constitution, and, of course, cannot swear they did not. The
Telegraph adds:
Wo hope the South will never consent to any other representation in Congress than one of her own choice. It is the very essence of liberty that she should enjoy this privilege, and those who seek to. tleprive her of it, an*.alike her enemies and the ettet»ies of free government. No braVMleirtetf people should submit to such dictation. Better stay out of Congress for ten rears, thin go tn <m such humillating terms. The Southern" States would be wise to remain unrepresented and patiently await the time when a returning' sense of justice at the North shall be willing to acknowledge them ns equals in the Uirfbn, *1(1 at the same time send to Congress men who will carry out their views.

Failures arc reported la Cincinnati. Small ones have occurred in Indianapolis. In Chicago, says the Times,, iu. speaking of the Owner
©f the Opera House in that city:
The recent faflut^ <VSfr. U.YirCfosfrf. with liabilities amounting to half a .million of dollars, still continue* to W the absorbing topic of
slavery, and there is no redress, because the negroes are in the tender keeping of the “ Bu-
reau.”
* The manifold evils of these unfortunate times have culminated in the irresponsible
wickedness of tfic Frecdineu’s Bureau.
In this connection we desire to call attention to the fact that while white men, women and children are all over the Ndrift suffering for want of. the common necessaries of Ufe, without eliciting one word of sympathy from the Abolition leaders, they have estimated it will take $11,745,000 to support this Freedmen’s Bureau, with its negro charities, during the ensuing year, and that sum will be appropria-
ted by Congress for that purpose.
This was about what it cost to support our whole Army-liefbre the war, and now goes to feed and clothe negroes in the South, and proyLie fat pi:1ci* for their peculiar friend*. This, however, is a small matter, as we are all flush, have no taxes to pgV, and ;hfve no suffering
from poverty among us.
But we do not object to the .Bureau for doing kindness t6 the negro. It is the manner in iwhich, and the authority.by which it is done, to which we object. The Southern States are States in the Union, and, of necessity, have the right, as such, to regn^tte tyiur support of paupers in them. The Bureau, as administered, is an independent Government, over a portion af the people of a ftate. And If such a Oort ernment can beset up iff one State, it can be in all. And if it c*n be set Up ©ver the free negroes of one State, it can be in all the States; and if it can be set up over the negroes, it can be over the English, the Irish, the Germans, and every other separate class of persons. And if it can compel a former master to support a free negro, it can, as o question of power, compel any person bo take Him into his house, hi* bed Ami to his table. Would it be agreeable to Jiavo this power exereised ir Indiana? Where is the shadow of authority for this monstrous usurpation? Have States any
rights left? ^ ^ ^

At the same time, says the Nashville Union, the Radical Republicans are circulating a memorial to Congress to impeach the President.
It concludes as follows:
That for which a million Union soldiers fought in a hundred bloody battles, the Com-mander-in-Chief destroys with a single stroke of his pen. He seeks to appesse traitors bjF granting them privileges, and betrays the friends of the Republic by abandoning them.
It Is as If treason
of crimes,”
into the greatest —» ,..-i, u.. striving for univeral freedom and justice, had become a crime. In view of his conduct, we have a right to ask, if any rebel bad been placed in his position, would he have ventured to do more Irt the interest of his companioos in mime, than the President has
done?
Congress has enacted a law concerning the confiscation of the property of rebels. The President annuls it by returning them their property. Congress has, by laws, excluded traitors from office. The President treats Avith contempt by appointing traitors to the most important offices. Yet, it is the i President upon whom the Constitution lay* the i obligation of providing for “the proper exerution of the laws.” To leave In office throe years longer a than who thus abuses his power by creating conditions that carry within them the germs of another civil war, the undersigned consider treason to the Republic. They deem it necessary, therefore, that this man, on account of violations of the Constitution, under which beholds his authority, on account of his migovemmeut, and on account of his ccmtetapt/ur tine laws of Congress, Shall lie impeached and re-* moved from his office. They are, at the same time, of opinion that Congress owes this measure to its own dignity and position, in order to assert and maintain a principle which has been rendered doubtful—the principle that the KSMUtiva |a responsible to tue Representatives of the people, and must bow to tnefrwill. The nation has a right to know whether its first servant is appointed as an Autoerat or as a Republican officer. The issue seems to be making up, between the President and the Republicans—he for the Union, they against it. Great efforts are being made by the Republicans to bring about a union between themselves and the President, and we incline to think it will be accomplished; we think the'Republleans w ill yield to the Presidents He has signified to them that he will stop their feed if they do not; he has ordered the heads of departments to make no more appointments on-the recommendation of members of Congress till further orders. This will bring the Republican leaders to his feet. There is nothing they will not do for money, for public plunder. This is the ruling motive with them.

XT IS A WELL KNOWN FACT THAT THE BLOOD I. Is the carrying vehicle of Life and Health, or of Disease and Death. There may be an excess of ceitain
poisonoas materials in the Blood, or there i ficiency of its healthful constituents; now by t
analysis and a microscopic investigation, the deficiency or the excess is at once ascertained, and thus, by the application of Blood Kemedieg, the fault is at once rem-

Says the Richmond Times:
While upon this Subject of bones, wc wUI add afeav words about manure, which we hope will be of interest and service to our agriculturaF friend*. The value and importance of this agent entitle it to the dignity of a science, asthe extent and variety*of its sourees, should
justly rank it among the arts.
The science of manures is but little understood or appreciated among us. With small, free-labor farms, and the consequent necessity for rich lands, more attention will hereafter be
paid to manures in the South than heretofore, rsngement which smugglers used in 'the old \Ve are vastly behind the pccpl&of Euxapeand <]nyi. They sank their contraband cargo the North, In economy and administration of when there was an alarm, and they searched
manures to our exhausted soils. In Europe nothing is allowed to be loSt' that Clin 'Curieh land. Notan ounce of huu^au excrement or urine is permitted t© rscapr^-wnd the manure of horses is even carefully collected from the
highways.
In a recent number of the Country Gentleman, a capital agricultural paper, is a very useful and suggestive article on manure, which points out the method of its creation and accumulation. Every acre of woodland, every ditch, decaying log and wood-pile is compelled to yield its tribute to the soil. Would that our farmers studied more the science of the manures, and understood the
art. ___

en there was an alarm, and they searched for it again by ttto help of a so-called marine telescope. It was nothing more than a cask with a plate of strong glass at the bottom. The man plunged the closed end a few inches below the surface, and put his head Into the other end, and then he saw clearly into the water. The glare and confused reflections from and through the rippled surface of the sea were entirely shut out by this contrivance. Seal hunters still use it. With this simple apparatus the stirring life of the sea bottom can, he says, be watched at leisure, and with great distinctness. “ So far as this contrivance enables men to see the land under the waves, movements under water closely resemble movements under air. -Sea weeds, like plants, bend before the gale; fish, like birds, keep their head to the stream, and hang poised on their fins; mud clouds take the shape of water clouds in air, impede light, east shadows, and take shapes which point out the directions in which currents flow. It is strange, at first, to hangover a host’* side peering into a new world, and the interest grows. There is excitement in watching big fish swoop like hawks out of their sea weed forest after a

Mr. Campbell suggests plate glass windows In the bottom of a boat—it would bring men and fish face to face; and tha habits of the latter could, he alleges, be leisurely watched.
