THE SEW TEAR.
To the new-born year, all hail! As
it is ushered into life we feel new
hopes and aspiration*, while •‘Antici
pation forward points the -view." In
the grave of the old year should hr
buried the feuds and animosities
which have so long separated those
who ought to bo fast friends, while
with the birth of the new year we
should brighten all the links in the
chain of friendship, and moving for
ward from this relay house on the’
road of life, pursue our journey with
1hl hand of reconciliation and charity
extended, giving and receiving all the
pleasnres of imagination. Tlie great
end of our existence Is happiness, and
with this 'recurring epoch, whHSs new
and generous resolutions St'pjReing
formed, let us noU«c*n too niyfrnwly
the every action W A^pcigWor, but
give the best impulses the sway, rather
hiding than laying open to inspection
■that which may more property belong
to a thoughtless mind rather than to a
perverse heart. 'It is by such noble
means as these we may ennoble our
selves, and in a never-ending regenet
ntion place still nearer the creature to
<the Creator.
We have all tnmed over our new
leaf,but let us ponder well and mark
with wisdom the rules we inscribe
thereon. Let justice poise the scales
of right and wrong, and with firm re
solve to lend follow in Ihe paths ol
virtue and honor. He who goes not
astray from these finds the sanction ol
a clear conscience, the first attendant
in the truiuof happiness and content
ment.
Alany ot the hopes nnct tears non
bare risen with the beginning of the
new year will be realized before its
close. Let us prepare ourselves to
meet alike tlie good or evil fortune
•that may attend ns, not suffering the
one to exhilorate or the other to de
press. And now may the blessings of
peace, contentment and good govern
ment be the portion of all onr people,
and wishing them a happy stew year,
way all tilings work together for their
good.
POLITICAL PREJUDICE.
One of the most objectionable fea
tures in our Republican form of gov
ernment is the violent and hurtful
prejudices that spring from the varied
interests of its parts and divide it into
antagonistic sections. This prejudice
will seize upon the minds oi men who,
if they have not, ought to have gener
ous and exalted ideas of magnanimity
and justice, and which, when they are
fully drawn into the current o; politi
cal events, it hardens into the most
extreme hatred. Rut witness ihe bit
ter and relentless antagonism o! Ihe
large majority of the people ol the
Northern against those of :1m Southern
section of our , country. The Radical
leaders, hi the late contest, knowing
•this but too well (lightened and iulcii
sided it by false reports of rebel and
J£u Klux outrages in the South, and
-used it as ineaus to justily the vindic
tive legislation of Congress by securing
the election of a Radical President.
Every capitalist and thinking man in
the North knows that the entire legis
lation of Congress in regard to Hie
South has been hurtful to the best in
terests of the whole country, and it lias
been opposed by this class. None but
placemen and office-seekers and those
who would gatlici money by pander
ing to this hideous monster of intem
perance strive to keep alive the tires
on its altar. The events of the last
three years have taught us how miicli
justice there was iu the remark of a
great thinker auil writer when lie said,
that as this government had grown to
wen mi, pros^eniv uiiu
•uch rapidity in its curly days, to it?
decline from these causes would be
marked with bloody revolutions, and
predicted lts end iu three centuries ui
anarchy. Whitt are we toitkink of the
sectional aufmosities tliat divide tile
people of tills vast Republic? To say
4luil this government cannot exist witn
a permanent hatred between its two
great sections would beiie history, li
can exist, and lor a long while, out in
a decaying condition, it is a sad sight
to see one's country declining in pow
er and glory, its body politic enfeebled
by tlie slow po.sou iuin.-ed by tin?
fiend ot political hatred, and those
who have the power to cheek the dis
ease, aggravating it. There are those
who ought to be lilted high above tin?
prejudice, but they arc still blinded
by it- As an example, Mr. Greeley s
paper, the New York Tribune, is one
«t the most vindictive, bitter and re- !
ientless sheet? published in the North
Ot ail other men who are Northern i

and calls him a "mere salai led adven
turer,” and all because Mr. Joint,on is
u Southern man, and did not treat
with disrespect certain uoblemcti ami
gentlemen oi Luglamt who symp.iUil

ilircs nnd deal honorably and justly
with onr people, mid they wilt be met
with the true spirit or patriotism and

THE CITIZEN.
With the eommcWcnient of a new
year it seems proper that we should
say something about onr success in the
past and our prospects for the future.
During the year just closed We have
done well; that is, when we consider
that .all manner of legal work of what
ever nature, has been denied us. Since
the.passage of the law that takes this
work away from Democratic papers
our snbseripiion lias been doubled
and advertising favors have been re
ceived as fust as we have bail space to
give them. A large number of onr
patrons to whom we hare sent the pa
per and for whom we leave done work,
have not yet come forward nnd paid
us. (hough we-have less cause of com
plaint so for than we had the year be
fore. Then the people were barely
able to pay, now they are. Taking all
thing* into consideration wc leel that
we have done as well as the circum
stances siirrnumUug us would permit.
For the future we expect to print a
better paper, white we offer a great
inducement to subscribers who care to
read a good stock and agricultural pa
•per. To all new -subscriber* we offer
the American Slock Journal ns a pre
mium, the price of which is one dollar
per annum. Thus, tor two dollars and
fifty cents tlie subscriber will get a
good family newspaper worthall of the
money, and the best stock paper in (lie
United States. We have already sent
a large list of names to this journal,
and hope to be able before January
closes to forward them another large
list. Tiiose who have been taking it,
and otliers who have read ieproiionncu
it (lie best stock paper ill their know I
edge, and worth twice its subscription
price. We have sent for a large num
ber of the October, November and De
cember numbers of 1808 as specimens,
nnd will distribute them as suon ns
they come to baud. In the meantime
let onr friends go to work and Bend us
names ana money lor tne new vein,

New Hum Prenent uml Pi eject
ed lur Hie Suttili.
From (be New Fork Herald.j
Our Southern exchanges nearly eve
ry day contain reports of a new tine ot
railroad or branch railroad to tie estab
lished in some portion ol that section
■of the country. Taking these reports
at a venture, it seems that there arc
now agitated in North and Central
Mississippi—one ol' the three states
tabooed by the Radicals—no less than
six new railroad routes—niiinciv : the
Memphis and Selma, the Mississippi
Valiev, tlie Grenada and Yazoo, Gre
nada and Eastern, Grenada and Meri
dian, and the Kosciusko and Corinth.
This number ot proposed new railroad
litns in an ostracized State shows that
there must he a wondrous amount of
hidden resources wiiliin its limits, and
that the proper mode "f developing
tin in is appreciated bv Northern capi
talists. A valuable road will lie tile
pit posed Gulf line-, from Slew Orleans
To Mobile, thence northeasterly to
Chattanooga, the latter place being a
sort ot common center for railroad
travel between the North and South,
as it was the key with which General
Sherman was enabled to unlock the
rocky gates of the Southern country
and spread before his army an easy
pal h w ay to t lie sea.
The Virginia and Tennessee road
runs through a fertile district ol coun
try, and aims at the possession ot a
fair sluice of traffic and travel from
Memphis, on the Mississippi, to the
Atlantic seaboard, Norfolk being its
principal Atlantic port. The Western
North Carolina road is of considerable
iinpiplanec. as it is romantically as
set led that when completed "llie sea
board will kiss the blue-capped moun
tains ofthc grand West—the Switzer
land of America—teeming with her
minerals, water power and agricultural
resources." As an evidence of the
value of some of these Southern roads,
it appears licit the Georgia Central has
just purchased trout the city of Savan
nah all ihe stock of tile latter, amount
ing to one million and a half, in the
Atlantic and Gulf Hailroad. This
gives tin* (Vulral a monopoly of the
trade from Macon to Savannah, afford
ing to that port increased lacilities in
obtaining cotton and other treiglits lor
its European shipping.

full Icu'nrs or I ho Arrest of Mr.
Bowlou—The Bile War.
In the Herald of yesterday appeared
it brief statement nfthi arrest of Mr
5>;nnn>*l I!invlt‘«, rditor-in-cliief t»f ihr
Springlieid (M iss.) Republican, ut the
suit of dames Fisk, jr., the Wall Street
stuck broker, whose reccol operations
and pending litigations in Eric railway
stock have attracted so much attention.
Mr. Fi«k claims to have been damaged
in his reputation to the tune of 840.000
by the publication in the journal men
tioned of eerlitin statement* regarding
his remarkable connection with the
Eric Railway Company, one of the flat
tering intimations being that ‘'many
even of his friends predict for him the
State Prison or I lie lunatic .asylum."
it appears that on Tuesday evening,
short v after eight o'clock, Mr. Bowles
was lit Itie reading rotiln til the Filth
Avenue Hotel, engaged in conversa
tion with n couple of friends mid await
ing the arrival of another gentleman
who was momentarily expected to join!
them, when a slight built young man in
light colored clothing stepped up to
Mr. Bowles and asked if his name wu*
Ilowles. Mr. Ilowles replied that it
was. and the young mail thereupon
produced a paper, informing him that
It was a warrant for his arrest, and re
questing Mr. Bowles to accompany
him. Mr. Ilowles looked at the docu
ment and at once walked off with the
young man. a third person it, ritisen *
attire, following them. Mr. Bowles'
lfiends ill first thought it was a mes
sage from (tie gentleman they had ex
pected In join them. lull thinking the
proceeding somewhat singular, they
followed and overtook Mr. Bowles on
the sidewalk in trout of the hotel, and I
asked the two men "what this thing
meant?” The individual In the light
coat said he wits tin officer, and the
other replied, "I am a deputy sheriff.”
The official appeared to be in great
baste, and Mr. Bowie* at once stopped
into a carriage and told bis friend* tlm!
it was a libel suit matter. The officers
tlieu instructed the driver to proceed to
Ludlow street jail, and the carriage
whs driven off', the officers accompany
ing it.
Mr. Bowles’ friends at once sought
! legal advice in the msip r. knowing!
that one of the principal objects ol the l
ncrest was to cause him inconvenience!
by having him In ked up all night. |
j They were advised to proceed to the I
jail and endeavor to make some
arrangement for his release by offering
some responsible party in whose custo
dy Mr. Bowles might be placed, as it
was believed the jail keeper would al
low him to go out on that condition.
Among Mr. Bowles friends who went
to the pul was Mr. Dana, ot the r-it>»
; newspaper; nmi a proposition was
made to the jailer to place Mr. Bowleg
! in Mr. Dana's charge, the latter gentle
man being willing to assume the
responsibility of Mr. Howie's appear
atice wben wanted. The Jailer consen
ted to do so, in obedience to an order
Irotn tlie Sheriff, but declined to do so
on*liis own responsiliillty. Sheriff
(t'Brien ivas subsequently found at a
parly in a private residence on Fifth
avenue,near Forty-fifth street, and up
on being informed of the nature of the
visit to him ashed for lime to consult
with some parlies on ihe subject. Ilis
request was acceded to. and lie shortly
i let! tlie house quietly, leaving wold at
the door tor t.'oloncl Bliss that lie (ihe
Sheriff) "could not do anything for
Mi*. Bowles.” it was then too late to :
resort lu any proceeding summarily!
! before a court, and Mr. Bowies was
obliged to remain in prison all night.
Yesterday morning, aimui ten o’clock, ■
Mr. Bowies appeared before the sheriff, j
| at. ilis office, and was released nnon (
j giving bail ill llie sum of §5O.0U0 to j
! await t lie result of llie action. Cyrus!
I VV. Field and A. A. Sulover justified !
as sureties in the sum of $&XOJ) each. 1
| Fisk was present at the hotel when thei
I arrest was made, as was also t he sheriff. :
j anti it was reported that Fisk was also J
iiit- the party where the sheriff tvas|
j ton fid.
Wlieii the sheriff's officers took Mr.!
ltowles to tlic jail, Ilis wife, who!
! accompanied him to this city and was
j af ti.e lime at the Albemarle Hotel, i
; was. ill. and Mr. Bowles asked one of
1 tie officials to convey a unto to her;
jexptnniiig his absence. The otih-cr
: agreed to do so, but slipped off and;
! tailed to relnrii. Mr. Bowiess then ;
endeavored to procure a messenger!
irotn the jail for licit purpose, offering!
live dollars for the service; but bis re- !
; quest and offer were Until declined.
It cost Mr. Bowies t lb 60 lodging let*
at the prison, which turn was icocived
by some of the nfijcinlg tor making his j
room comlortable, etc.
On this arrest llie tami comments:
There is something in the feeling
which dictated llie manner of this
arrest which is trulv contemptible- j
Thai Mr. Fisk should he aggrieved by ;
Mr. Bowie's comments upon hini-ell in
connection with the recent transactions !
of tlie Frie railway direction, is not

it was per.tvt!y proper to do so. As a
