WEDNESDAY, JTJITY 29. 1874.
'To Bnslnes3 Hen.
We respectfully call attention to the
valne of the Savannah Mobnxno Nhwb as
on advertising medium. Its circulation
is O REA TEE THAN THAT OP ANT PAPER PUB
LISHED in the State, and in Southern
Georgia and throughout Florida, it vir
tually enjoys a monopoly, thus offer
ing to our merchants who derive
their business from those sections the
bent means of reaching their customers.
A business man wants something more
than seeing his advertisement in print,
he wants circulation to make it pay.
Those who wish to make their business
known should avail themselves of our
columns. Our prices for advertising will
compare favorably with those of any
first class newspaper in the country.
Governor Smith and Kimball.—The
Augusta Chronicis,. in quoting a para
graph from our Atlanta correspondent,
in which Kimball's statement that Gov
ernor Smith believed him to be innocent,
is denied, says that in view of the im
portance attached to the Governor's opin
ion, and the influence it exercises in this
particular case, it would be advisable to
have an authoritative expression of opin
ion from him. Aside from what our
correspondent says of the matter, we
have the very best reasons for stating
that Governor Smith, instead of believing
Kimball to be innocent, is convinced of the
great developer’s moral guilt. It follows,
therefore, that Kimball misrepresented,
the Governor. We also know, of our own
personal knowledge, that the Hon. Lin
ton Stephens held Kimball to be equally
as guilty as Bullock.
Corn and Cotton.—The Atlanta Con
stitution refuses to believe that Georgia
will make her bread this year. This is a
little curious. The com crop in this State
may be said to be made, and the Consti
tution ought to know that the area is
considerably larger than that of any year
since the war. Furthermore, that paper
ought to know that the seasons have been
remarkably propitious, and that the pros
pect for a large crop has all along been
more than flattering.
But when the Constitution discusses the
subject of cotton the editor lays aside his
hopelessness. Cotton has everything
against it—the fickleness of the seasons,
the insidious boll worm and the prolific
caterpillar—and yet the editor of the Con
stitution is absolutely certain of a very
large crop. It is all very funny.
The Pacific Matt. Company Embezzle
ments.—The arrest of Tracey Bobinson
in New York, manager of the Panama
Bailroad Company's affairs at Panama,
develops a condition of things.that helps
to destroy the credit of many a corpora
tion. The specific charge upon which
he was arrested was for the appropria
tion of premiums on gold to private uses.
It is alleged that this embezzlement has
been practiced for thirteen or fourteen
years, at the rate of about $18,000 a year.
Mr. Bobinson’s own books, it is stated,
showed a deficit of $112,000. It is be
lieved by the company that it hob been
systematically plundered . by a ring of
employes, and that the amount that
can be fastened upon them will be about
$500,000.
The Grangers no longar authorize the
publication of periodical statements show
ing the growth of their order, but it is
unofficially computed that they aggre
gate 1,300,000 members in the United
States, with thousands of new accessions
weekly. The new bureau of statistics is
now in full operation at the headquarters
cf the order in Washington, and sends out
to the subordinate granges at regular in
tervals reports of the crops in all parts of
the country, with such other information
of an agricultural character as may in
terest or benefit members. As the bureau
is in communication with intelligent cor
respondents in. almost every section of
the Union, it is claimed that these reports
nro very full and accurate.
Orange Growing at Los. Angeles.—
.Southern California is receiving so many
emigrants from the older States, and
orange growing, is proving so successful
there that the business of furnishing
young orange trees is assuming large
dimensions. One company near Los An
geles, organized last month, have pur
chased nursery grounds and contracted
to supply 500,000 orange trees, 100,000
lime trees and 75,000 lemon trees to a
fruit growing company by July next.
The plants from recently planted seed
from one hundred and fifty barrels of
oranges are already above ground and
flourishing.
The Brooklyn Argus, in an article sum
ming up the main features of the Beecher-
Tilton infamy, exclaims in bitterness of
heart: “It makes the blood boil with in
dignation to realize that we live in a com
munity where such things can be tol
erated.” Had “such things” occurred in
the South they would have been attributed,
by way of palliation, to the demoral-
•izing influences of slavery. But for “such
things” in Brooklyn, in tuat highly civil
ized and enlighted community there can
be no such plea of extenuation. The
moral depravity of the victims must be
■et down to the account of what Ar-
temus Ward called “ natural cussedness.’’
PH
- —
.Tones, of Nevada, has been interviewed
in regard to the third term. He believes
that Gen. Grant has too much sense to
aspire beyond his present greatness.
None of the President’s good friends
speak favorably of the third term; and
the result is that the President’s heart
inclines more and more toward his bad
iriends.
A Cincinnati Gazette correspondent,
speaking of a renewal of work by the
crusaders at Franklin, Ohio, says: “They
accomplished wonders when they first
took hold of the crusade; but during the
time they were resting from their labors
the number of saloons increased from one
to nine.”
Supposed Murder op a Priest.—The
Bev. S. McDermott, a Catholio priest at
Anoka, Minnesota, disappeared some
days since nnder circumstances that gives
rise to'the fear that ho has been mur
dered. He had about $700 with him at
the time.
The Congressional Committee at Little
Bock, Ark., is taking rich testimony.
Homo of it submitted on Thursday, was
this—that returns in the State election,
1872, unfavorable to the Republicans,
i sent back, and altered so as to “elect
:re are forty-two catacombs in and
around Borne, with galleries 587 miles
long, and it is estimated that from
four to seven millions of bodies have
found sepulture therein.
Tlie Third-Term Idea—A Desperate
•Alternative.
The St. Lbuis Republican thinks that
“if President Grant really entertains the
third-term, idea he will have to decide
whether the Southern whites or blacks
shall be bis friends, or, to put the neces
sity in its. broadest definition, whether
he will accept a nomination from the Re
publican party, or from the opposition.
He may manage to postpone his decision
of the question till after the Congressional
election in November; he cannot safely
pnt it off longer.”
We think that besides General Grant,
the “Southern whites” will have 'some
thing to say in the decision of this ques
tion. The true white men of the South
are not prepared to offer General Grant a
third-term of the Presidency as a bid for
his veto of the civil rights bill, which
owes its existence to-day as much to his
recommendation of further legislation in
enforcement of negro equality and the.
general policy of his administration, as it
does to the malignity of the dead Sumner.
,The honest, sensible white men of the
South are not disposed to look to General
Grant to protect them from the threat
ened outrage of forced negro social
equality. They feel that they would hold
their exemption from such a calamity by
a very feeble tenure if it depended solely
on the President’s veto of the bill now
pending in Congress.. His past career
towards the South, bis cruel abandon
ment of our people to the oppression,
outrage and insults of the plundering
horde of carpet-baggers and negroes is
not calculated to inspire the belief that
he would employ a third-term in the
single business of vetoing civil rights
bills. The white people of the South
have more to hope from the restoration
of Constitutional government, and the
sound Democratic principles upon which
it was founded, than from the favor of
any living man. They do not re
cognize the legitimacy of one man
power in the government, and they ask
nothing from General Grant or from
any other President but a faithful, honest
administration of. the government in ac
cordance With the principles of the Con
stitution, of right and justice. They are
not prepared to barter the Republic for a
veto,and for protection from forced negro
social equality, with all its attendant
evils, they will rely first on the fraternal
sentimouf of white men of all sections of
the Union, and finally on the natural right
and duty of self preservation.
The Democracy of the North, with all
their opposition to the civil rights bill,
would never unite with the South in a
nomination of Grant for a third-term on
that issue, for the reason that they would
know that such a. nomination would re
vive the sectional prejudice of the North,
and even if it were possible under such
circumstances to elect Grant President
for a third-term, a sectional opposition in
Congress would soon .render his veto
nugatory. The South must resist the
measure which has for. its object the
mongrelizing and utter degeneration of
her people, with stronger and more re
liable weapons than a third-term Presi
dent. We must appeal to the magnanimi
ty, the good faith and brotherhood of the
white men of the Union. In their sense
of justice, in their humanity, their pride
of race and respect for civilization is our
only true security.
The March of Civilization—Gen. Cas
ter’s Indian Raid.
In accordance with the mercenary'and
treacherous policy of dealing with the
Indian tribes, which to the disgrace of
our civilization has been pursued by the
United States Government, Gen. Custer
with a large and well appointed force is
now on his way to penetrate the Sioux
reservation, known as the Black Hill re
gion. A solemn-treaty made with these
Indians guarantees them in the peaceable
possession of their present home and
stipulates that their country shall not be
visited by white men without their con
sent. Some rude gold ornaments worn
by their women having betrayed the ex
istence of mines of the precious metal, to
gether with rumors of the richness of the
soil have excited the cupidity of white ad
venturers and speculators, by whose influ
ence the government has been induced to
commission the Custer expedition to spy
out the land .under pretext of a scientific
exploration of its resources. Should it
prove to be rich in minerals and soil as it
has been represented to be it will be an
easy matter for the government specula
tors and squatters to get up a pretext for
driving the Indians from it and opening
it to occupancy by the whites. Latest
telegraphic accounts state that Gen.
Custer’s command have crossed the Bad
Lands, and are now within three days’
march of the region they design to pene
trate. The Indians have thus far offered
no molestation, though their signal fires
on distant lulls indicate the watchful
jealousy with which they regard the ex
pedition. Whatever may be their senti
ments, says the correspondent of the
Tribune, it does not seem at all likely
that they will attempt an attack upon so
large a force; and: if it be the fact that the
Sioux have gone off to fight the Crows,
Gen. Custer may find the Black Hills un
inhabited. The country in the vicinity
offers good pasturage, and discoveries of
lignites and fossil remains are reported.
The New York Graphic predicts that
one of the results of the unhappy scandal
that has agitated the public mind for the
past year, will be the discrediting of what
is known as the liberal school in theology.
People, the editor says, - will couple lati-
tudinism in creed with laxity in morals
and will hold the one responsible for the
other. But unfortunately at the same
time with the personal warfare upon the
unorthodox Plymouth Church, comes a
formal prosecution at law of the entirely
orthodox Bev. Mr. Glendenning, of the
Prospect Avenue Presbyterian Church, of
csey City, on a charge “of bastardy.
Such matters have less to do with profes
sions than practice.
The Norfolk. Virginian makes the fol
lowing noteworthy remark: “The best
way to get the best representative in Con
gress is to seek out in each district the
men whose character' and talents will
enable him to do the State the best ser
vice, and pnt him through by a powerful
and united vote. It is no time to consult
the wishes of nonentities and cmnll
scheming politicians, who, unbidden,
push themselves to the front.”
The policy here indicated will apply in
Georgia as well as in Virginia, and in the
First Congressional District as well os
anywhere else in Georgia. If the man
who seeks the office and the office that
should seek the man should never meet no
liarm will come to the State.
What the dickens aro they going to
send Sheridan against the Indians for?
They've got no barns and haystacks to
bum.
But the old women and children may
have the small pox again, in which case
it would be perfectly safe to trust little
Phil in a campaign of extermination
against it.
Beast Butler predicts that the Demo
crats will choose a Governor and three
members of Congress in Massachusetts
the coining fall.
The Central Georgia Railroad Com
pany.
Savannah, Ga., July 27th, 1S74.
Editor Morning Nems :
The energetic officers who preside over
and manage the Central Georgia Bailroad
Co. inaugurated a month ago the beginning
of a new era in Southern railroading .by
reducing the cost of travel over their
mum stem and branches one-half, and os
no other notice but the mere statement
of that fact has been mode by the press,
permit me to offer, through your paper,
a few comments on that most important
measure, which I consider one of the best
and wisest moves that has been made
in the South since the creation of our
railways.
Thus far the main object and the whole
policy of most of the railroad companies
has been to grab at and to secure the
through traffic only, at the expense and
even the sacrifice of the way or local
business, as a comparison between the
tariffs on the transportation of through
and local traffic would demonstrate.
That policy is wrong, not only in prin
ciple, right and justice, but has proved
to be injurious to the sections of country
through which pass said lines of road and
to the railroad companies themselves, as I
will demonstrate.
It is wrong and unjust because the peo
ple living- along the line of railway which
they have contributed to build and from
wliieh they expected to be benefited, have
all the disadvantages of having to pay the
highest rates of the tariffs, whilst stran
gers living far away have all the advantages
of the lowest tariffs,having contribited not
a cent in the construction.
By this onamoly of tariffs the farmer,
manufacturer, miller, etc., living along
the line of railway and having to pay the
local rates of tariff on sixty or eighty
miles, cannot compete with the same, liv
ing .two hundred or three hundred miles
off and paying the through rates.
The effect of this discrimination of
tariffs has resulted in this: That the sec
tions .of country submitted to local rates
have made but slow progress, if at all;
that agriculture, industry and commerce
have remained in a stationary condition;
that many persons have ruined themselves
in attempting to build up manufactures
along said lines; in a word, people along
said lines, which have been useless to
them, have remained poor and helpless.
These railroad companies, failing to
understand that wealth brings wealth, in
failing to promote agriculture, industry
and wealth along their lines by suitable
tariffs, have failed at the same time to
build up for themselves a paying and
permanent business, which nobody con
take away from them; they have failed
to make themselves independent, the
experience of the day showing that de
pendency on through traffic is a very
precarious one, subject os it is to com
petition from other railways sometimes
better situated in all respects to compete
These high local tariffs have kept
people from using railways, have forced
them to remain at home, and to arrange
their business in such a shape as to' use
them as little as possible.
This condition of affairs has brought
up the actual dissatisfaction and contest
in the Northwestern States between the
producers, consumers and railroad com
panies; a 'contest much aggravated
I am certain, by hungry and unscrupu
lous lawyers and petty politicians, and
which will, I am afraid, benefit but these
worthies and bring the interested parties
viz: producers, comsumers and railroad
oompanies into great inconveniences, an
noyances and expenses as a final result.
Railroads are os necessary to this coun
try for transportation as the seas are to
England or to Holland. The only fault
of railroad companies is their neglect to
regard, to protect and to promote local
industry, and wealth by suitable tariffs
for that object.
The Central Bailroad 'Company have
made the first step by reducing the cost
of travel to one-half what it was before.
I am sure the able officers of that road
will make the second step and will also
reduce the rates of local freight; these
two reductions in the rates of local tariffs
will work well together, they will be of
mutual benefit
Travel will bo increased if business is,
and vice versa, and it will take months
before people of the country, will use
railways as their common carriers, even
if the tariffs nre low.
Borneans of frequent cheap excursion
trips and by very low rates of local tariffs
all the classes of society in the country as
well as in cities in Europe have been
made as familiar with the use of railways
os are the inhabitants of our large cities
to their street cars. AH the railroad com
panies have made themselves rich and
independent with such policy. The
through traffic is considered there os a
net profit I hope that the Central Rail
road Company as the advance guard in
that direction has opened its way towards
success and fortune, and will soon be fol
lowed in the same path by all the other
Southern railroad companies.
Eugene LeHardt, Civil Engineer.
A curious case has been agitating Can
ada for some time. A' man named
Guibord died, and, though a strict Cath
olic, was refused consecrated ground
because in life he had been a member of
the “Institute Canadian," an interdicted
society. This action of the Bishop and
priest was deemed the more high-handed,
inasmuch as Guibord was the bolder in
his own right of a plat in the very
cemetery from wliieh his dead body was
excluded. This action was clearly a
confiscation of a man’s property by on
order not recognized as invested with the
power of interfering with property in
any way—least of all, its alienation. The
dispute, having run through the Cana
dian Courts, was finally transferred to
England, where it has been decided—
doubtless on the basis of indisputable
justice—that the cemetery plat is a por
tion of the estate of deceased, which
cannot bo confiscated without due legal
process before a secular tribunal, and
that the heirs may bury in it whom they
please—certainly the man who paid for it.
A noticeable feature of the literature'of
the Scandal, says the Brooklyn Argus, is
its effusiveness and gush. .The princi
pals in the affair are on stilts, and their
voices come from fog' land. Take the
statements and denials in order, and
while one is amazed at the verbal facility
of the writers, he is confused with the
vague and rhapsodical uncertainty of
language There, is nothing in Mr.
Beecher’s “error of judgment” which
calls for the vigorous vocables or tbe
nebulous ambiguties employed by him,
or which should seat him on the “ragged
ge’ r of “remorse and despair,” and
keep him therefor a year or two; and
no reason why the mere “shadow”
of this nameless thing should plunge him
into “morbid intensity.”
Another Child Stolen in Philadel
phia.—The heartrending news of another
kidnapping case is made public in Phila
delphia, nnder precisely the same circum
stances as those connected with that of
Charley Boss. A little boy just -four years
old, whose parents'reside' at' tbe corner of
48th.street and Lancaster Pike, but whose
name is, for the present, purposely with
held, was approached on Wednesday by
two men in a wagon, and prevailed to
t in. One of the men was black, the
other white. The little one readily con
sented, and no word has reached the
parents concerning him since.
Of twenty-two leading staple articles
of trade, the New York Bulletin shows
that thirteen are bringing lower
prices than last year, eight higher and
one unchanged. The changes in. the
values of our larger staples more than
off set the higher prices of some minor
articles, and the condition of our indus
tries, it is thought, though operating
heavily against -producers in cases where
wages hav© not been adequately reduced,
yet lays the basis for an active resump
tion of business upon sounder founda
tions.

THE BEECHER INFAMY.
New Yore, July 28.—The Sun says the
Beecher committee decided last evening
to call Moulton as the next witness, ask

Moulton won’t testify before the commit
tee as now constituted.
Mr. Shearman last evening said that no
testimony of Tiiton’s, bearing on the al
leged confession of Mr. Beecher to him
of adultery, was ever elicited in the re
ported cross-examination or omitted in
the publication of it. Beecher’s stenogra
pher says no snch testimony as Tilton
speaks of in his card was regularly pre
sented before the committee.
Beecher returned from Peekskill yester
day and chatted pleasantly with some of
his church members on his door steps in

If Moulton does not answer the call to
testify, which he will receive to-day,
Beecher’s testimony will be taken without
further delay.

New York, July 28.—The Brooklyn

to- testify before Beecher, whose state

whose house Mrs. Tilton is stopping, says
she is perfectly calm and serene. She

and pronounced it utterly false. She had
Been advised by friends not to make any
written denial of statements from such
sources. Mrs. Tilton’s children have gone
to Mount Clair to her friends.
The Brooklyn Eagle says Dr. Starrs,
who is now enjoying a vacation at Prince
ton, Mass., is to be summoned to testify
as to his interview wi£h Tilton when the
statement of the alleged offense of
Beecher was made. Beecher will not ap
pear before the committee to-night nor
to-morrow night, as he can not testify
satisfactorily to himself or others until he
has seen the alleged originals of the let
ters written by him. Ho has kept no
copies of any letters he has written.
Mr. Sage said to-day that to tho
best of his recollection nothing was
omitted from Mr. Tilton’s testimony
in the published statement, and that ho
(Sage) did not hear Tilton testify to
Beecher’s and Mrs. Tilton’s confession of
criminality. He might have said this in
an informal ehat with some members of
the committee. Mr. Claflin says he was
not present when the alleged omitted tes
timony was given, but understood the
statement was made in an informal
conversation on an afternoon when
no testimony was taken. Another mem
ber of the committee says Tilton came
one afternoon before thei
was not well enough to pi
: testimony. A desultory conversation en
sued. in which he made the statement
about fhe confessions of Beecher. No
j notes were taken of this, as the meeting
; and conversation were informal. The
; same committeeman said that Beecher’s
! examination, when made, will be most
ngid, but whether written or oral, he
could not say. The Graphic has had
interviews with several committee men,
who say that Beecher has no intention of
resigning, and that stories to that effect
are mere gossip.
TILTON.
New York, July 28.—Mr.’ Tilton was
visited this morning by a number of
members of the press, but his answer to
all was, “I have nothing further to say in
regard to the case, and I decline to be in
terviewed.” A question was asked as to
whether he had any statement to make
over his own signature in refutation of
the statements published, and his reply
was, “I have nothing to say. ” It is said
that complaint for libel is to be made
against him in one of the justices courts,
and that he will then bring forward the
witnesses whom the committee refuse to
call. This course, it is said, will be the
only way by which the matter can be
solved.
The committee have concluded to close
their labors in a short time.
Theodore Tilton was arrested on a civil
action for libel to-day at thesnitof one
Gaynor. Tilton was taken before Judge
Walsh and released on his own re
cognisance to appear to-morrow to answer.
Gaynor claims to be an interested party,
and brought the suit to compel the pro
duction of all the facts. His action is
regarded as a movement to compel the
bringing of the case into court.

The Scandal. —The Philadelphia Ameri
can says the Brooklyn affair has taken its
place among those unwritten tragedies in
real life, which sometimes lose civilization
half a century of moral progress in the
brief space of a day. It matters nothing
that the matter is as yet ex parte, that
nothing is proved, save the crookedness
of human nature, and that the noise that
fills the air is not the confused protest of
society against suspected or alleged moral
ise. The damage is done. This is no
longer an imbroglio, but a real tragedy,
in which all that is small and despicable,
all that'is cruelly jealous and-meanly sus
picious, is arrayed against any clearing
up of the social skies.

wife, Mr. Black and wife and daughter,
and a colored man living in the same
house. During the same storm the
lightning struck many points in Central

and all three were drowned.

Schenck’s Sea Weed Tonic.
In the atmosphere experienced here during the
summer months, the lethargy produced by the
heat takes away the desire for wholesome food,
and frequent perspirations reduce bodDy energy,
particularly those suffering from the effects of de
bilitating diseases. In order to keep a natural
healthful activity of the system, we must resort
to artificial means. For this purpose Schenck’s
Sea Weed Tonic is very effectual. A few doses
will create an appetite and give fresh vigor to the
enervated body. For dyspepsia, it is invaluable.
Many eminent physicians have doubted whether
dyspepsia can be permanently cured by thedrugs
which are generally employed for that purpose.
The Sea Weed Tonic in its nature is totally differ
ent from such drugs. It contains no corrosive
minerals,.or acids; in fact it assists the regular
operations of nature, and supplies her deficien
cies. The tonic in its nature so much resembles
the gastric juice that it is almost'identical with
that fluid. The gastric jnice i3 the natu ral solven t
which, in a healthy condition of the body, causer*
the food to be digested; and when this juice is
not excreted in sufficient quantities, indigestion,
with all its distressing symptoms, follows. The
Sea Weed Tonic performs the duty of the gastric
jaicc when the latter is deficient. Schenck’s Sea
Weed Tonic soid by all druggists.
