MAHSHAI.ljVII.IdG ITEMS.
(Laid over from last week.)
Editor Home Journal'.
Religious meetings are, with ns now,
tlie order of the day. Mr. Twitty, as
sisted by other ministers, among them
Mr. Branch and Mr. McGehee, col
ducted a series of meetings through last
week at the Methodist church. Mary
able sermons were preached and much
earnest work done, though the results
do not seem proportionate to the effort.
A few, however, were added to the
church', mostly children. It is possible
the meeting may continue through -this
week, though that has not yet been de
cided.
A great religious event has just trans
pired among the colored people here.—
They have just closed their Association.
A very large number of them came,
and it is pleasant to relate that the dele
gates were a fine looking body of men,
and tbe crowd behaved admirably,—
belter, indeed, to be candid, than
large a number of whites generally do
on such aa occasion. They were quiet,
orderly and respectful. A gentleman
of intelligence says that he heard from
one of them on Sunday a very fine ser
mon, full of original thought and reli
gious fervor. The singing, at least at
one of the churches (all the climchesin
town were used by them), was grand
beyond description. All of them sing,
and when two or three hundred of them
get at it together, they pour .out such a
vast volume of sound that it fairly shakes
the building. At a little distauee it is
beautiful. Three or four car-loads of
them embarked for borne Monday morn
ing, the exercises having closed Sunday
night,
Oar town looks bran new. Two new
brick warehouses, several new brick
stores—I tell you it presents a fine ap
pearance; and business is pretty good
too, considering ihe low price of cotton
I hope some of oar merchants will- tell
the people what they are doing through
your columns—they certainly must
know it will pay.
I was at your elegant conuty fair, and
as I looked upon the many beautiful dis
plays from’ the farm, orchard and vine
yard, on exhibition iu the agricultural
department, the thought occurred to me
that I would tell your readers, with your
peimission, something of some grapesl
bad seen a day cr two before that. I
speak of the Flo’ino grape, cultivated
by Col. Ww. M. Haslam,—a grape that
I have not sein anywhere else. It re
sembles ibe ordinary muscadine very
much in color, only It is of a richer pur
ple. The flavor is equal to that of the
scuppernoug,- and it makes most excel
lent wine. The skin or rind is tough,
but instead of detracting from its value,
it really adds to it, because of tb's pecu
liarity it is free from the depredations
of birds. But wlu-t I most desire to
call attention to is that i i is prolific. It
would astonish one to see what an
abundance of fruit was on tbe vine I
saw. They grew in largo bunches, and
the whole vine seemed to be one great
cluster of these, so close together that
you could uot distinguish the bunches.
I may, however, have had my judgment
somewhat biased in their favor by tile
fact that Col. H. forced on me a couple
of bottles of wino- that he had made
from them. So you see, when . I said
above that they make excellent wine, I
was not speaking at random, but had
something to base an opinion upon.—
And how let me say to the Colonel, that
I hope his shadow may never grow less,
and that his grapes may prosper so that
he. may do so again every now and. then.
Quite a number of persons: went to
the Savannah Centennial from here:

The Thomasville Times says that per.
haps the only red fox ever captured in
that county was caught oil Thursday
last by Mr. Tom Hall and others. The
varmint was first seen in the Spring
Hill swamp last February, aud- has of
ten been run since, but with no success
until Tuesday. He was captured alive,
having gone into the ground. Mr. Hall
hoped to save.him alive for the fair
but owing perhaps to the string tied
around his month, to prevent his biting
being too tight, he soon died.

AN ASTOUNDING DISCOVERY
A correspondent has sent ns a start"
ling letter from Miss M. Eethnm-Ed-
wards, from which we give an extract:
“I send you the following particulars of
a recent scientific invention, just pat
ented. and destined without doubt to
play an important part in' our econom
ic history. I think it must be regard
ed for once and for all as a solution of
the great coal question, not only among
ourselves, but abroad. M. Beurbonnel,
of Dijon, the celebrated lion and pan
ther slayer, lighted upon the following
discovery by hazard, and, after six
years persistent investigation, brought
it to entire workable perfection. He
discovered, by means of two natural
substances, inexhaustible in nature, the
means of lighting and maintaining a
fire without wood or coal; a fire instan
taneously lighted and extinguished; a
fire causing no smoke, dust or trouble;
a fire costing utmost one-tenth of ordi
nary fuel; and, what is more wondeiful
still, a fire, I he portion of which an
swering to our fuel is everlasting—that
is to say, would last a lifetime. M.
Bouibonnel’s invention comprehends
both stove and fuel. The fires could be
od tli6 minutest scale or the lai-gest.
They would be used for heating a ba
by’s food, or for roasting an ox. Being
lighted instantaneously they will be a
great economy of time. M. Bourbon-
nel at 01 ce pateutedihis invention, and a
body of engineers and savants from
Paris visited him and prorianced hiscUs-
covery one of tbe most remarkable of
the age. He has had several offers for
the purchase of the patent in France,
but wants *o sell it in England, bis own
occupation being in anotber line. Any
English gentleman or firm vishing to
see his fires or stoves could do so by
writing to him a day or two beforehand:
Hir address is M. Bourbonnel, Dijon.
I have seen these fires and stoves. There
is.no mistake about the matter. It is
as clear as possible that here we have a
perpetual and economical source of fu

HOGD’s MARCH ON NASHVILLE-
The ” average Northern citizens has
learned much.to underrate the soldeir-
ly qualities of the late ex-Confedevate
Gen, John B. Hood. To most peo
ple north of the old slavery line he is re
garded as the rash aud improvident
leader who left Sherman to bis own de
vices at Atlanta and filing himself north
ward on the impregnable position of
Thomas at NashV’le.
Doubriess he was all that has been
conceded to lrim as a daring soldier.
His previous record shows that conclu
sively. But history will eventually clear
him of lie chargeof desperation and iu-
judiciousness. He took his first great
command when the cause of the Confed
eracy was hopeless, add succeeded the
really greatest military mind of the re
belling South,: General Johnson, under
very much the same kind of popular
pressure—only more desperate—which
afflicted McClellan under the idiotic
shout of “on to Richmond.”
The movement on Nashville, had it
eucceeded, would have placed Sherman
in a very awkward position, with his
northward lines cut aud all open to
Hood to ¥Le Ohio and beyond. There
would have been no march to the sea,
but a grand scramble to get back to, the
threatened States of the Northwest. The
disaster at Nashville was the end oi the
Confederacy. It needed no smashing
of Lee’s lines at Petersburg, nor any
surrender at Appomattox to complete it-.
Hood was an infantry Hurra t who was
-in badTucIr, He,had only one chance,
and that in almost the very death strug
gle of tlie rellion.
It is. bad teste to call him a rash leads
er when he was never-called upon to
lead but in the last grand emergency
of his people.. Had he whiped Thomas
he would have been one of the greatest
of the South instead of being foolishly
characterized as the man who ruined
the cause of liis friends.—From ihe

GRANT HAS
SAID.
NEVER
Neit her during bis electioneering jour
ney around the world, nor since Ills ar
rival in California, has Ggn. Grant said
a single word that will stand in the way
of his becoming a candidate for Pi esi-
dent, if the republican Convention nom
inates bim.
On the contrary, every declaration
lie has made when approached on Ibis
subject has been shaped to help bring
about his nomination. When the peo
ple have said that the office should seek
the man, not the man tbe office, he has
professed weariness of public life and
an incliuation to spend the rest of bis
days in the capacity of a private citizen.
When the people have said that two
terms should fill the measure of- any
man’s ambition, he has replied, in effect,
that it was at a. sacrifice of his personal
wishes that he held the office even as
as long as lie did, And liis friends
have added for lrim that' nothing short
of a great national emergency, one
which should appeal to liis patriotism
in the strongest manner, could over
come Lis reluctance to be again a candi
date.
If the man is ready, the emergency
will not belong in making.
There is no time since the fourth of
March, 1872, when (he simple announce-
ment from Gen. Grant, “I shall not
run again for President.” would have
been worth hundreds of thousands of
votes to: the republican party. Every
possible influence has been brought to
bear to wring that annouD cement from
his lips. He has remained dumb.
Does any sensible man doubt tliat
Gen. Grant'; is still a candidate for a
th*rd term?
Timely Aviee to Farmers.
Now is the time for farmers to plant
their small graio, and sow in quantity,
for sale as well as use, It is a sad mis
take for planters to utilize all their gooff
land for cotton, and sow enough grain
in on. of the way places to do their
stock or for home use. When our peo.
pie team to sow grain for sale, as well
as for use, they will be prosperous. It
will pay as well as cotton if good land
is used, instead of the usual waste land
given to the cereal crop, and indeed
wffl pay better, because it Deeds no in
termediate attention—the sowing and
reaping being all tbe trouble and ex.
pense. Grain, too, brings money to the
farmer just when he needs it—in the
middle of the summer. What faimer,
who sold his grain last summer, did not
make money? And what .fanner who,
as soon as he thr.shes his grain and
sells it, will not Jo it again? * It is an
other mistake to raise grain and keep it
for the weevils’ Sell as soon as gather
ed in summer, when it commands £
high price, and buyfl.nr fromtLemills,
and farmers wiil make money without
risk. Ali.cereals are now looking (o the
ground, aud the sooner they are laid

crop and for the lucky farmers. Oats,
wheat and other gram, and a larger
quantity of each, are now in older for
