In 1875 the quantity of wine made
in Franco was unprecedentedly large,
the Gironde alone producing 110,000,-
000 gallons, and the whole of Franc
no less a quantity than 1,848,fl00,000
gallons. In 1870 the quantity pro
duced in the Gironde fell to 44,000
gallons, and that of France generally
to 94,000,000 gallons. Thisycnr, from
all appearances, there will be a
slderalile insretise in quantity over
that of 1870—in fact, a good average
vintage, and this, notwithstanding
that tlie appearance of the vines and
the cold and wet weather up to al
most the close of July, laid given
rise to serious fears of a deficiency in
quantity again in the vintage of 1877.
The Administration is perplexed
over a question which Mr. John Mor
rissey would settle iq live seconds.
During the late Presidential campaign
Mr. Robert 1’. Baker, an en
thusiastic Republican and United
States Marshal for the Northern
Distriot of Alabama, gave ex
pression to his enthusiasm, and
tried to bull-doze a Democrat by
betting him $500 that Rutherford B.
Hayes would he tlie next President of
the United States. After the inaugu
ration of Mr. Hayes the stakeholder
turned tlie money over to Mr. Baker,
much to tlie chagrin of his Demo
cratic friend, and now the latter, to
get even, lias lodged information of
the transaction at Washington, as a
cause for the removal of Mr. Baker
from office. Tlie matter has been
referred to the Attorney General, and
he gives it as his opinion that it is in
violation of public ]silicy and public
morals for an officer of the Govern
ment to wager on the result of elec
tions. The Southern gentleman who
is making all this ado over his lo:
$500 evidently lost everything by the
“wall,” including his “lionah,” ex
cepting, of course, that $600.

A man who hoa spoilt the greater
portion of his life in debauchery nnd
crime, when tlie law finally seeks to
make him alone tqion the gallows for
his sins against God and ids fellows,
generally ends his miserable exist
ence cowardly, resorting to all sorts
of means to retain his lease of life.
When Hie hour for death comes he
“dies hard.” Ho it is with tlie Republi
can party. For twelve years they have
ruled the country with u murderous
hand. No crime has been too horri
ble for tliis party of moral ideas to up
hold, provided It gave them power.
But their course lias been run—they
have been brought to Judgment and
they “die hard.” Yesterday, in the
Senate, no stone was left unturned by
the Republican leaders to put off
the day of judgment, but the
Democrats, wjtli Thurman in the
lead, were too powerful, armed as
they were with justice und the law.
The question was the discharging the
Committee on Elections and Privi
leges from further consideration of
the credentials of M. C. Butler, of
South Carolina. After a continuous
session of twenty-eight hours, on mo
tion of Mr. Thurman the committee
was discharged. Two carpet-baggers,
Patterson of South Carolina nnd Con
over of Florida, nided in tlie fight, ns
by their votes the majority was se
cured. Thus these two men have
done something towards atoning for
their many deeds of evil. The Re
publican party is dead. It “died
hard,” hut it is dead, nnd to-morrow
let ns all remember to return thunks
lo a kind Providence for the death of
the “great moral hybrid.”

A New York Herald man pumped
ex-GovcrnorTilden on Broadwny. He
thinks Hayes will have only a corpo
ral's guard as a party in three years.
Hedoesnot belleve'tlie South will sup
port any hut a true blooded Democrat,
and the Southern ovations to Mr.
Hayes were humbugs. To the ques
tion whether he intended prosecuting
his right lo the Presidential chair, he
replied certainly lie did. The coun
try know he was elected President,
and (he American people are too in
telligent to forgot. Those who
voted for him feel that their votes
were in vain, nnd might as well have
been given to a dummy. So far as
lie was concerned lie said it was of
little consequence, but one of tlie
gravest principles in representative
government is involved, nnd if the
people do not see to it, the matter will
he an object for deep regret to coining
generations.
How he proposes to push his claims
he did not say. Gov. Tilden might
as well stop such talk. Politically he
is “played out.” The time for him to
talk has long passed.

The following lines were written
by the late Earl of Derby on the fly

the Hind, presented by him to Gen
It. E. Lee. They arc n touching evl
deuce of sympathy and appreciation,
on the part of the scholarly lioblemau
who was aptly styled “the Rupert o"

tcentli century were, in spirit at least,
ranged on (lie side of the South :

The author of these lines was Phili|
Stanhope Worsley, an English poo'
of sonic considerable reputation, who
translated the Odyssey m the Spense
rian stanza. His translation was first
published in Blackwood's Magazine,
and is generallv esteemed a splendid
effort. The diAteultfcs of the versifi

of the noble poem is deemed worthy
of tlie original by some of the ablest
English critics. Worsley died of con

The recent article of Gov. Straw
has called considerable attention to
the question oftherelatlvendvantages
of tlie North and the South as manu
facturing centres, and it is, therefore,
not out of place to put before the pub
lic some substantial facts, which will
throw much light on the subiect. We
at the South claim that we eon suc
cessfully conqiete with the North In
certain manufactures, and not only
compete but practically absorb the
entire business. We refer now prin
cipally to such well known fabrics as
standard sheetings and shirtings,
brown, or unbleached heavy goods,
which constitute in u great measure
the products of all Southern cotton
mills. We propose to show that
such is tlie case, not by mere theory
or siieculation, but facts gathered
from the lieHt sources, from expert-
enced men, who are in a situation to
know whereof they speak. A re-
ixirter ol the Chronicle ctnd Count itu-
lionalist interviewed Mr. Francis
Gogin, Superintendent of tlie Augus
ta Factory, and Mr. H. H. Hickman
President of tlie Graniteville Factory,
yesterday, with tlie following result:
WHAT MR. COGIN SAYS.
Reporter—You have doubtless no
ticed, Mr.Cogin, what has been said
lately in regard to Southern and
Northern manufactories.
Mr.Cogin—Yes.
ReiKirter—What is your experience
in regard to the relative advantages of
the North und South for the location
of cotton manufactories?
Mr. Cogin—There is no question
hut tliut the South (possesses vastly
superior advantages in many ways.
We have one of the best climates in
tlie world. Tlie atmosphere lias just
the proper humidity for manufactur
ing purposes. Now, at tlie North,
the air becomes so dry that steam has
to lie introduced into the weaving
room to dampen tlie atmosphere, so
us to prevent the threads from break
ing. We never have any sucli trouble
as that here. Again, the mills often
have to stop because the water courses
are frozen up. This never happens
at tlie South, and we can therefore
run uninterruptedly. We can get a
« of excellent white labor. In
is much better than that which
the Northern mills now have. It is
equal to the “Yankee" labor the
Northern mills used to have, but which
they don’t get now. We can make
more yards of cloth per loom than
they can, running the same number
of hours as they do, and we can, there
fore, afford to sell it cheaper. Our
water power is plentiful, and cheaper
on tlie average than at tlie North.
They can’t begin to compete with us
where they have to use steam. It
toHts Ichs than six dollars per horse
lower here for water, while at Fall
Itiver, where steam is used, tlie cost
is forty-two dollars per horse power.
It wouldn’t pay tlie Augusta Factory,
for Instance, to use steam instead of
water, if all tlie necessary fuel was
put down at the factory free. The
Atlanta Factory lias been referred to
as an instance of failure at the South,
but it should be remembered that that
factory has never been at work yet.
It will be in operation in a short time,
and then we will be able to see what
it can do. Tlie operatives in the Au
gusta Factory work eleven hours a day.
There is a superabundance of white
labor here, und we never have had a
machine stopped for the want of help
during tlie nineteen years Iliaveliecn
with the Augusta Factory. If we
were to start a mill of tlie same size
of ours to-day, we would have suffi
cient skilled lulior in two weeks to
run it.
This testimony coming from such
a Hource is very important. Mr.
Cogin is a Northern man who lias
hud practical experience with North
ern cotton factories as well as at the
South, and therefore speaks by the
book.
MB. HICKMAN ON THE SUBJECT.
In all tlie country, North or South,
there lias been no more successful en
terprise than tlie Graniteville factory,
under tlie management of Mr. H. H.
Hickman as President. Mr. Hick
man is a close observer and a shrewd
business man, nnd lie never speaks
unless lie has tlie facts and figures be
fore him upon which to hose his as
sertions. What he has to say, there
fore, must necessarily have much
weight.
Mr. Hickman, in response to a re
quest from tlie rtqKirter, proceeded to
state some facts in regard to the sub
ject under consideration which threw
considerable light upon tt. He said
that a short, time since the proprietor
of a paper mill at Saratoga, New
York, was in Augusta and had n con
versation with him, during which tlie
Batli Paper Mills wasdlseussed. This
gentleman said that without tlie new
mill at Vuueluse witli tlie surplus of
tlie Graniteville company, without
calling on the stockholders for u dol
lar, ami lie will lie able to run it at
three-foimhs tlie expense, in proixir-
tion to its size, that it costs to run
Graniteville, because it will lie a
modern mill, witli all the modern
improvements. Graniteville is one
of the most difficult mills in the
country to run, beouuse it lias been
pieced from time to time, and yet
people can see bow successful that
lias been. It costs less to build a mill
now than ever before. Labor and
material are cheaper. He gets lum
ber at Vaueluse at $0.50 u thousand
feet, and bricks at $8.2-6 a thousand.
MH. SIBLEY’S STATEMENT.
Mr. W. C. Sibley, the energetic and
able President of tlie Langley Mills,
who has conducted the affulrs of tliut
company with so much vigor, in an
article in the Chronicle and Constitu
tionalist, last Wednesday, said that
the mills in this vicinity had sold,
within the last three years, some five
thousand bales of goods, that were
delivered in New York for export to
England, tlie continent of Europe,
Africa and South America, and the
United States have awarded the con
tract for sheeting needed for tlie In
dian supplies to tlie Langley stand
ard sheeting, made in this vicinity,
for three yeurs. This contract is let
out in New York and tlie goods de
livered there, thus competing suc
cessfully witli goods made in
New England. In regard to
the labor he says : "As to the labor, I
have been President of the Langley
Manuafacturing Company, of South
Carolina, since its organization, in
1870, and have had no difficulty in
getting as good und reliable white
labor as there is in New England,
and who cheerfully work eleven
hours per day, and could obtain more
if we had any use for them, and
many of them are Southern born nnd
have learned their tuode in our own
mill.” He challenges any mill in
New England to show as great a pro
duction of goods per loom and yarn
per spindle (on tlie same style of
goods) or a cheaper cost of manufac
turing. He concludes by saying that
the Soutli lias tlie best climate for
manufacturing; the water power, the
cotton, the men and women necessary
to successful manufacturing. She
lacks the capital, but notwithstand
ing that she has competed successful
ly with New England in the manu
facture of brown sheetings, shirtings
and drills, both for the home and for
eign trade.

I would die. When I first went to the hos

HIm Arrival at Rio Janeiro.
Our Minister to Brazil arrived safe
ly at Rio do Janeiro, on the 14th day
of October. In a private letter from
that splendid capital, dated October
16th, the day after his arrival, he
writes :
“I arrived yesterday morning, by
tlie blessing of a good Providence,
quite well and with grateful heart.
Tlie voyage was pleasant from tlie
day we sailed from Bordeaux. The
Consul and some fifteen American
gentlemen came to the ship to receive
me, in a boat from which tlie United
States flag floated; and I found a very
handsome and elegant carriage await
ing me. Apartments had been se
cured for me at tlie Hotel of Stran
gers, kept by English people. It is
somewhat singular that upon tlie
walls of my parlor are hung the por
traits of General Washington and of
the King of the Belgians, the Queen
and the three children, tlie little girl
being Carlotta. So I seem to have
taken up diplomatic life where I left
it oft' having been Minister to Bel
gium formerly. It is of course u
mere coincidence—no design in it.”
He says also that “Rio is a magnifi
cent city, but unlike any I ever saw.
The sea and mountains surround it.
The liny is very beautiful, and rocks
from twelve to twenty-five hundred
feet in height Hse to view.
“The Emperor yesterday in full
state adjourned the Congress. He wore
his imperial robes, ids crown, etc.,
etc., driven to tlie Chamber in a coach
drawn by eight horses, the Empress
also in another drawn by eight
horses.”
When about to sail from France to
Brazil, Mr. Hilliard was very anxious
to take passage on tlie French stenm-
r Parana, but it sailed two days be
fore he was ready.
It was well that he was not ready,
for ttiat vessel was wrecked of! tlie
coast of Brazil and the passengers lost
everything. We trust tliut Mr. Hil
liard will always make such happy
escapes, and bo spared to the material
good of the country.

oc20 d A will REESE CRAWFORD.
New York, October 1st, 1877.
I have devoted twenty years of pa
tient study to tho Liver and its relations
to the human body, in search of a rem
edy which would restore it, when dis
used, to its normal condition. The
result of that labor has’been tho pro
duction of
TUTT’K LIVER PILLS.
Their popularity has become so extend
ed and tlie demand so great as to induce
unscrupulous parties to counterfeit
them, thereby hording me of tho To
ward, and tho afflicted of their virtues.
TO CAUTION THE PUBLIC,
and protect them for vile impositions, I
have adopted a now label, which boars
my trade-mark and notice of its entry
m the Office of tho Librarian of Con
gress, also my signature, thus ;
AB'TO COUNTERFEIT THIS IS FORGERY.“SA
Before purchasing, oxamiue tho label
closely.
THE GENUINE TUTT’S PILLS
ort a noculiur influence on tho sys
tem. Their action is prompt and their
good effects are felt in a few hours. A
quarter of a century of study of the
Liver has demonstrated that it exerts
a greater influence over the system
than any other organ of the body, and
when diseased the entire organism is
deranged. It is specially for the heal
ing of this vital organ that I have spent
so many years of toil, and having found
the remedy, which has proved the
greatest boon ever furnished the afflict
ed,shall they bo deprived of its benefits,
and a vile' imitation imposed upon
them?
Let tho honest people of America see to
it that they are not defrauded. Scruti
nize tho label closely, see that it bears
all tho marks above mentioned, and
buy the medicine only from respectable
dealers. It can lie found everywhere.
Very respectfully,
By HIR8CH & HECHT.
