Obituary.
JC1LN JsTUAfiT UU.
John Stnart Mill, the eminent English phi
losopher and statesman, whose death is an
nounced by cable, was bora in Bodney street,
Pentonville, London, May 20,
the son of James Mill, the author of the “His-
tory of India. ” His father was for many years
the examiner of Indian correspondence in the
East India House, and the son rose from a
clerkship in the East India Company’s employ
till he wss appointed to succeed his father in
1856. Mr. Mill held this position only two
years, retiring when the administration of the
company was transferred to the British goy-
eminent in 1858. He wss snbaeqnenOy offer- r
ed s seat in the Indian Council, bnt declined, 1
and never held any public position except
during his short Parliamentary career.
Mr. Mill’s position in the East Indie Honse
WM'Shfiknenuy political to direct his attention
to public affairs, and especially to the great
questions which afterward engaged the atten
tion of his matnrer years. From 1823, when
he entered the East India Company's service,
till 1818, when his “Principlesof Political
Economy " appeared, the times were exceed
ingly stirring. Parliamentary reform was ag
itating the whole country, and evoking the
most powerful utterances that had ever been
heard from statesmen like Brongham. Hassell,
Bowring, Grote, Soathwood, Smith, Hume,
Herner, Borailiy end Bentham. Bentham
was, besides, the friend of his father, and the
elder Mill always showed an active sympathy
with the work of reform, so that it was natu
ral that John Stuart Mill—the future Bayard
of English philosophical literature—should
unreservedly throw himself into the arms of
the progressive party.
Mr. Mill's first work was his famous System
of logic, published in 1843. This work was
characterized at the time as the greatest con
tribution to English speculation since Locke's
“Essay.” Five years later his great work on
the “principles of Political Economy” ap
peared. In this work the doctrines of Adam
Smith, Hi car do and other leading eoonomists
were interpreted in a broad and enlightened
spirit Mr. Mill treated in his own luminous
way all those questions of surpassing interest
to progressive nations, as the laws of pro
duction, capital and labor, property, competi
tion, slavery, peasant proprietorship, wages,
remedies for low wages, profits, rent, value,
money, credit paper carrancy, distribution,
taxation, etc. Bnt the moat ramarkabla chap-
tors are those in which he described the prob
able future of the laboring classes.
The “Principles” had been preceded by
“Eseays on Some Unsettled Questions of
Political Economy," pnblisbed in 1844. In
this work he discussed national interchange,
the influence ol consumption npon produc
tion, the meaning of the words “productive”
and “unproductive,” “profits” and “interest”
and the definition of political economy. Mr.
Mill published nothing more till 1859, when
his famous “Essay on Liberty” and his
“Dissertation on Parliamentary Beform” ap
peared. In his “Essay on Liberty” he feel
ingly alludes to the lose of his wife, who had
been the partner and often the guide of bis lit
erary labors, and whose death for a long time
clouded with sorrow the sunshine of his do
mestic hearth. Bnt hie mind could not long
remain nnoccnpied with its favorite pursuits
nud his “Considerations on llrpresentative
Government" appeared in 1851. “Utilita
rianism" in 1862 and “Auguste Comte and
Positivism" and “Examinations of Sir 'Wil
liam Hamilton's Philosophy” in 1865. In all
these works he showed the same broad spirit
and comprehensive thought which
characterized his earlier productions.
At the general election in July, 1865, Mr.
Mill was elected to Parliament for Westmin
ster. His speeches to his constituents was a
tribute to them rather than to himself, for he
simply complimented them for acting to
gether for the common cause, by which an
important victory had been gained, and left
the world to praise them because in one in
stance, at least, it was found that an English
statesman conld attain to a high political of
fice without lowering himself to the level of a
demagogue or resorting to corrupt means
for his elevation. At the next general elec
tion, however, he was not returned, the dem
agogues getting the better of the high-minded
statesman.
During the last few years Mr. Mill has been
constantly busy with bis pen. He was always
au advocate of education in its fullest and
widest extent, the political enfranchisement
of women, free trade, industrial co-operation,
the extension of the franchise and of all meas
ures which have for their object the improve
ment of the social, moral, intellectual and
physical condition of the people. To these
subjects he gave renewed attention after his
retirement from public life, enunciating bis
views in numerous addresses, letters and
articles in periodicals. Among his latest con
tributions were a series of articles to the Lon-
don Examiner oh simplifying the land tenures
and abolishing the law of primogeniture. It
will he remembered that in 1869 he wrote a
letter to the American women suffragists,
sympathizing with their cause, and last year
he famished the Internationals with a very
remarkable communication on the law of
revolution. Now that he is dead it is likely
that all his scattered writings will be collected
together and printed.
A friendly pen thus sketches Mr. Mill's first
speech in the Honse:—“His thoughts and his
arguments were closely packed, and his style,
like that of his works, was as crystal. Be
stood close to Mr. Bright, and was warmly
cheered by that distinguished man. He kept
his hands behind him the whole lime, and
practised none of the ordinary arts of the era-
lor. His voice, though not powerful, is very
musical, and is as distinct as a bell. He spoke
in the character alike of the politician, the
statesman, the philosopher and the philan
thropist, and all appeared in his words. He
applied himself with the most logical rigor
to the subject immediately before him, go-
ing scarcely to the right or to the left He
opened np new opinions at every turn, and
his expression of them was exquisitely precise.
The speech proceeding directly from his
thought he occasionally stopped in the
coarse of it as if to rally; but when he resumed
the thread ef his reasoning, he went on with
delicions fluency. It was a great pleasure to
be there, and particularly te observe how the
House appreciated him, and by its anxious
attentions—a lull House remaining deeply
interested till be had finished—proved its
respect for his intellectual gifts and for his
sentiments.”
General Gordon at Charleston.
Daring a recent visit to Charleston, General
Gordon was entertained by Bichurd Lathers,
In reply to a toast in his honor, General
Gordon is reported by the News and Courier
at responding as follows:
Laducs amd Gxntlemxn — Altheagh I meet
many of yon for the first time this evening, I
do not feel that I am in the presence of stran
gers. These Southern people are united by
so many and such peculiar ties, that no cir
cumstances of time of distance can make
them other than one people. And it is one
of the compensating circumstances for the
iamities which have befallen us, that
our renr disasters and the wrongs we have
suffered have only served to bind us the more
closely together. My thanks are due for the
compliment of this reception by our accom
plished and hospitable host, who differed with
us in the late war, as well as for that paid by
the sentiment just offered.
In regard to the first compliment to which
I have referred, let me say that I regard it as
the evidence of a desire on the part of our
host for the speedy restoration of better feel
ing between those who have been embittered
by the war, and between the different sec
tions of this distracted country. This I am
sure we all both appreciate and sincerely
reciprocate, notwithstanding those unfortu
nate circumstances which have tended since
the war to increased alienation. You have
been pleased in the toast offered by my friend
to attribute to me as a soldier more distin
guished honor than I can justly claim.
Much of whatever has been considered
worthy of note in connection with my
services in the army is due to the brave
men, living and deafi, who, at any hazard,
cheerfully executed my commands. To
them let the larger share of honor be given
You have doubly honored me by you ref
erence to what you are so generous as to re
gard my present representative character.
To merit the tribute you thus pay me, ought
certainly to fill to the full measure the virtu
ous ambition of any man. Would that my
ability equalled my anxiety to relieve from
embarrassment this people. I am not with
out hope for the future. I do not believe
that the people of this great country have
abandoned forever those distinctive features
of government, of equal, independent States,
which were originated by our fathers, and
which have impressed themselves upon the
characters of the citizen and made ns a dis
tinctive people. No people can long be truly
a historic people who shall lose their peculiar
characteristics. Hence I hope to see the day
when all these historic features of the govern
ment shall be re-established. Passion, which
is always the enemy of wise legislation, is
still in the way; but it will be banished by
time, and better men will fill public stations,
when sectional prejudices no longer enter in
to political contests.
hen an appeal to sectionul passions shall
no loDger be essential to party success; when,
in a word, the war shall be considered, as in
deed it was, a conflict of theories of govern
ment (and this time will come), then will
there be genuine peace and co-operation for
good government all over the country.
Again thanking you ladies and gentlemen,
for the great honor you have done me, I offer,
in conclusion, a sentiment which I think ac
cords with the spirit of the occasion, and
which I am sure both our host and ourselves
will appreciate. 1 regret that I cannot make
the toast more universal in its scope; but I
should expect my glass to fall from my grasp
if I dishonored the dead of both armies by
asking you to honor those who bavG sought
since the war to excite a bitterness to which
they in life were strangers I offer you “The
heroic dead of both armies, who fought for
principle and backed their convictions with
their lives.” Let both be duly honored.
(Applause.)

New Orleans Herald.
This gentleman, who is mentioned as the
commander of the party which resisted the
invasion of Kellogg’s janizaries in St. Martin
parish, has been justly designated the Cheva
lier Bayard of Louisiana. No more gallant,
sincere and devoted patriot; no higher-toned
gentleman, no truer Louisianian lives than
this long universally honored native of the
Attakapas. Of fine natural gifts, mental and
moral, largely cultivated by reading and study,
an able jurist and ardent patriot, firm but dig
nified in his bearing, inflexible in his resist
ance to every form of wrong, dishonesty and
oppression, we cannot be surprised that Mr.
De Blanc should wield the great influence he
does through the Attakapas parishes.
Among the creoles which constitute the
body of the population in this region, lie has
always been looked upon as a leader and
chief.
■ Mr. De Blanc was a distinguished officer in
the Confederate army, and commanded with
marked ability and brilliant personal gallantry
ono of the Louisiana regiments thiough the
whole of the war. He is not, however, a rash,
imprudent or reckless man, who would precip
itate a conflict without just cause and provo-
ltion. But he is emphatically of that class
who know their rights, .and knowing dare
maintain them.”
A Cat Lost.—A cat relying upon his nine
lives to save him, allowed his tail to swell, his
spine to curve, and with the “banner cry of
freedom” emanating from his jaws, waded in
to a bnzz saw in rapid motion. The cat was
never seen again, but the boss sawyer, who
always stood with his mouth open while at
work, remarked to his assistant that he could
“taste fiddle strings and sausage meat in the
air that morning.”

From the Danbury News.
The Country Gentleman suggests a way to
prevent a hen from eating their eggs. It is
to fill an egg with a solution oi pepper, and
put the egg back in the nest A Danbury
man has tried this, and says it works like a
charm. He put a pretty good dose of pepper
in the egg and placed it in the nest of the
criminal. Pretty soon the hen same in and
took hold. It was a brindle animal with long
legs, and somewhat conceited, it dipped in
its b 11 and inhaled the delicacy. Then it
came ont doors. It didn’t gallop out, we
don’t mean, but it came out—came oat to
look at the scenery, and see if it was going to
rain. Its mouth was wide open, and the
feathers on the top of its head stood straight
up. Then it commenced to go around the
yard like a circus horse. Once in a while it
wonld stop and push out one leg in a tone of
astonishment, and then cry ‘‘fire,’* and then
start on again. The other hens came oat to
look on. Soon the hens from the neighbors
came over the fence, and took up a position
of observation.
It was quite evident the performance was
something new and unique to them. There
is a good deal of human nature in hens.
When they saw this hen dance around and
have all the fan to itself, and heard it shout
* fire,” and couldn’t see the conflagation
they _£lkd up with wrath, and of
upon it, and before the
DanBOPHreoald interfere, tbe brindle hen
with the long legs was among the things that
were. He says the recipe is effectual.
By authority of the foregoing order of Ilia Excellcn-
the Governor, I will enter npon the duty assigned
me on tbe let day of May next, at Boom Mo. 2C, in tbo
Capitol at Atlanta. Persons holding the bil s men
tioned must present them to me for examination by
the 1st of June next. In the meantime thosejholding
bills should advise me by letter at Dalton, Georgia, of
the number of each denomination of bills held by
them.

The undersigned have seen the “ Briulcy Shift Plow ” at work for two dajR. bedding lor cotton, working in
corn and cotton, and have worked it ourselves, and we express our entire satisfaction with it iu every way. It
makes an elegant bed at every trip, and thoroughly pulverizes the land at the same time. Alter bed
ding, we plowed dowu the bed on the water furrow—the place for guano, reversing the bed and covering the
guano at the same time. In corn planted in six feet rows, one rouud cleared the row, and left the land In splen
did order, which would have required five furrows with a single plow, thus saving over one-half the labor, and
doing the work equally as well, if not better. Cotton rows from three io tlirco aud a halt fet-t, were cleared a;
one furrow, which would have required two furrows with any other plow. As a cultivator it surpasses any.
thing we ever saw, and for bedding lands after being broken, it caunot be surpassed, as it ti»* s the work it
three men and mules. Wo cheerfully give it our fullest endorsement and recommendation, as the greatest la
bor-saving agricultural implement that has ever been on our farms, or in this country. The draft of the plough
is as light as a Dixon Sweepou a singlo stock-a medium mule earning it with case.*
