“Our Nelalibor'*—Frame.
The 1'oOltalls ol the French Emperor, like Hie
treAd of French capital, are hoard and loll, not
in thoconfines of the Empire alone, hut upon the
tracks of two continents. The sun to-day never
sets upon the steps ol French enterprise, and
lorevcr rises u|H>ti bold, broad and victorious Na-
poleonio ideas. Whilst England and Prussia,
Austria and Russia have turned hucksters ami
brokers—invested In the securities and dabbled
in the slocks of this and other countries—France
has projected and carried forward outside ol her
dominions, in the East and in the West, the
grandest enterprises ol modern times.
Confessedly and indisputably she has done,
and proposes to do, tor the industry and civiliza
tion ol other peoples and the world at large,
more than any and all the continental nations
combined, England included. The evidences ol
her genius and beneficence are seen in the con
struction of the Suez Ship Canal-a work which
will speedily save to the commerce and con
sumption of Europe and Asia, not less than
$100,000,000 per annum. The prophetic traces
of the same “gilts” have swept across the Islh
nms of Darien, and, at litis moment, outlines
itself in a living oiler to unite the Pacific ami
the Atlantic by a magnificent artificial channel,
and thus save to the navigation and industry of
the Orient and the Occident $'.’00,000,000 more a
BY JOSEl'It K. BROWN.
Before the babe now born shall flush with the
passions of youth, the forming brain and teem
ing purse of the French Empire will send her
navies and iter merchant marine around the
world, within the licit ol the tropics, and render
the doubling of the rapes at the southern pro
jections of Alrica ami South America a venture
tor the gratification of au idle curiosity, or an
expedition lor the naturalist and antiquary.
Not content with having consummated the
marriage of the Mediterranean with the lied
Sea, tints making the pulsations ol the Atlantic'
aud Indian Oceans responsive to each other;
not, indeed, satisfied with having otlercd to open
a like communication between the Gull oi Mex
ico and the Pacific, and to foot one-third, or
more, of the bill, she lias contracted, through her
eminent capitalists and engineers, to connect the
Pacific and Atlantic coasts within our “ten trrri-
lories-in other words, to construct and stock the
Southern Pacific Railroad, stretching between
the eastern shore of Texas and the harbor ol
Ban Diego, California, and \s prepared to execute
this gigantic undertaking at an outlay ol iflOO,-
000,00°. _
Hitherto she lias sought to link the Great beas
-the lungs and heart o( the liemisphcres-on
the paths of tlicir greatest activities, with liquid
bands, ou which to glide the commerce of lmli
the world; now she seeks lo lay au iron track
as a highway for the East and the West—to
uuite oceans 2,000 miles asunder—and lo startle
us with the “ringing hoof of the iron horse ot
the Tuilleries in his flight over the great plains;
his dashes through tlio mountain parks and his
panting sweep over the serrated crests of the
chains ol the Cordilleras.
Nor has French sagacity, directed by the
French Bphynx from his imperial chamber
rested at even this project. It lias entered the
lists against our borne capitalists, and is filling
contracts to build, at a cost of $5,000,000, the
American Central Railroad, running from Fort
Wayne, Indiana, to Omaha, Nebraska, tints de
scending the castcrfi slope of the Mississippi ba
sin and ascending the western to conned witli the
Union Pacific Road, now pushed over ”>00 miles
toward the mountains, and to reach the loot hills
oi the Sierra Madro before the dawn of a twclv
month.
The shadow ol the same fur-reaching hand is
seen also in a contract to complete and operate
upon an expenditure of $40,000,000, the .lame
River and Kanawha Canal and improvenieiib
thus cutting a drain east to our sea hoard lor tin
products of the Appalachian Range ami the val

To the Kditort of the. Chronicle <6 Sentinel:
The writer of the notes of Mr. Hill seems to
have In view these objects:
1. To abuse and denounce all who differ from
him in opinion, as dishonest traitors, and thoso
whom lie most dislikes, because they may bavo
been in the way oi the gratification of bis am
bition, as thu most dishonest and the greatest
traitors.
a. To oppose universal sulfragc, as well ot

It, To give vent to his indignation at ills own
disfranchisement.
I ie evidently lias a very poor opinion not only
ol the black race, but also of that part of the

to appreciate his merits, and liuvo not, therefore,

my opinions heretoloro have not been accepted
I.v a majority of the people.” “My political life
I is been a struggle against prevailing opinions
and policies." The same will ngain bo true.—
His opinions will not bo accepted, because they

misfortunes and miseries to our afflicted people.

with a degree of support among the peopl
commensurate with its merits. There is no
more ably conducted or higher-toned paper in «
the country, and we record the evidence of its

Kentucky.—The State elections in Kentucky
occurred last Monday. The Democrats have
swept everything from center to circumference,
electing their candidate lor Governor by forty

it is pleasing to know that there is at least one

through which we are passing is loo critical, as
involving the liberty of a race and nation, to
admit ol anything doubtful or equivocating.
But Gen. Grant’s action on the wrong side lias
been louder than Ids words. ,
Wu do not forget theslmmcftil ‘whitewashing
mission which Grant, at a most important crisis,
consented to perform in Hie interest ot thoJohii-
m>ii ‘policy.’ A distinguished Major General
who proceeded him had given us a candid report
„f tlio stale of nllulrs at the South—a report,
which was at the time startling, hut, as subse-
< iiienl events have shown, only approximated to
a Ihll revelation of the actual state ot things.—
To his everlasting discredit Grant sought by the
prestige of ids military fame, in the interest of a
tmieiierous executive and of a horde of bloody
conspirators, lo cover up the real situation by a
‘whitewashing’ report, and to betray Hie nation
into submission lo a ‘policy’ which lmd it been
success fill, would have made freedom for the
blacks a mockery, ending for the nati-m inevit
ably in irretrievable ruin. Tills alone is enough
to prevent any sincere radical Irom recognizing
Grant as a fit Presidential candidate.”

Now all the world must know the great con
tempt Mr. llill lias for the de-magoguc, or any
act of demnmyneism and his entire freedom
from anything iike thirst for office. His constant
political consistency, the elevation and beauty ol
Ids style in debate,'the ciiasteness and elegance
his language, his aversion to the style of those
ho garble Milton and other poets, lind present
sjointed figures of hideous monsters and hor
rid nonsense, which are ludicrous and inap
propriate; and above all, his dislike of sophistry,
and his effort never to deceive or mislead Hie
people, must certainly acquit him of all dema-
i/ogucism and ol all sympathy with demagogues ;
while his past modest, retiring disposition, ami
the assiduity with which he lias avoided public
lists or positions, must convince all that lie lias
..a“thirstfor office!” It cannot be necessary to
say anything to acquit him of the charge of
inaticism or bigotry of extreme opinions. A
uiatie is defined to ho a person aflected by ex
cessive enthusiasm, particularly on religious
subjects. I believe no one over accused Mr.
llill of this.
Alter having stated the agencies by which the
people are misled, lie says: "Ignorance, credulity
iuid want ol virtue among Hie people have been
tlio food for both agencies.” Again lie says :—
Therefore, the people of America have been

tiio.se very things which of all others they most
itc.” Of course the demagogues and fanatics
ho are so much abhorred by Mr. Hill, misled

Good Prospect.-—Wo congratulate tlio pen-
pie ot Monroe county, if the following Irom tlie
Advertiser is not overdrawn :
It Is estimated that there are thirty thousand
acres planted in cotton, in Monroe county this
year. Every four acres, it is thought, will make
li hale of cotton weighing four hundred and filly
pounds, which in round numbers will he seven
thousand five hundred bales. It is probable Hint
cotton will bring twenty cents per pound next
fall, and tlie people of ourcounty will realize the
enormous amount, lor that crop alone, of six
hundred and seventy-five thousand dollars.
There will he grain enough made to supply
our people lor more than twelve months, and tlie
only nrticln of necessity wo will have to purchase
Irom abroad is bacon. One-fourth ot tlio money
realized by tlie cotton crop this year will lie am
ply sufficient to pay lor bacon and all other ne
cessary supplies that wo don’t grow Iioro, and
our people will have a surplus of five hundred
thousand dollars to keep among themselves, or

Florence, August 0.—Gnrribaldi has aban
doned the movement against Rome for the pro-1
sent, expressing himself confident ol ultimate |
success.
Confiscation and Repudiation.—A writer
ii a South Carolina paper says Hint “Cpnflsca-
iun isthe ghost that still haunts many of the
landholders in the State. It rises up iu fearful
apparitions to disturb their dreams by night ami
ir more philosophical reflections by day.”
Ml this too, notwithstanding tlio fact tlmt wo
have had repeated proofs that the vast majority
even of thu Radical party in Congress are totally
pposed to confiscation iu any shape.
'I'he New York Times says Northern bond
holders might just as well he haunted with the
host of repudiation, because one or two unprin-
iplcd men have had the audacity to propose it,
overtly or openly. We believe that one of
these ghosts might as well he feared as the
illier, and we linvc no doubt that il l’hillips’

Illicitly Ire followed by an agitation in favor of
repudiation.
What it Means.—The New York Trihune,
speaking ot the elections in Tennessee last week,
: uys: “The result of this election means the tri
umph of tlie Republican party in the South."—
Certainly it does. The Tribune is rigid. Like
anises hardly ever fail to produce like effects,
and the same sort of appliances as Avero in vogue
in Tennessee will bring about Hie same results
in Georgia aud other Southern States. And
they might be tried on with advantage to tlie
party in Connecticut, New York, Pennsylvania,
and other doubtful commonwealths in that di
rection.
'.ilCKNKSS in Ai.hany.—Tho 7W- Weekly News
of tlie 3d repudiates tho notion that Albany is
Ho- only sickly place in all thecountry. Il says:
While we admit Hud we have chills and fever,
yet we are far from saying that Albany is the
only place where such filings exist. Albany is
no worse, nor half as had, as some places wo
have been to. There is no town in Southwestern
Georgia, or even in tlie State, of the same popu
lation, where there have been fewer deaths than
iu our city.
Limit. Bhainf..—The Memphis Bulletin re
cently contained an article prepared by the un-

The Cholera.—Tlio New York Sun warns
the country ugainst cholera. There is reason to
fear, it says, Hint the public will presume on tlie
immunity from epidemics that lias marked the
prescut season, and relax in those ellorts which
arc so essential to tlie genoral health of large
communities. Because midsummer lias passed
without Hie outbreak of cholera, it docs not fol
low tli at we arc absolutely secure against it. A
full month of hot weather yet remains, and
there is ample time for nay epidemic to obtain a
footing if circumstanced should prove favorable.
