The Florida Campaign.
The present campaign in Florid^
being waged by the Democrats with
vigor and enthusiasm not only worthy
of, but almost certain to result in, success
to the ticket Hon. W. D. Bloxham, the
Democratic candidate for Governor,
untiring in his efforts to secure a tri
umphant victory for the party of which
he is the honored standard bearer, and in
his efforts he is ably and heartily as
sis ted by Messrs. Davidson aDd
Finley, the nominees for Congress in the
First and Second districts respectively,
and by nearly every Democrat of promi
nence in the State, while that old veteran
and hero, General Loring, has also re
turned to bis native State from the far
off wilds of Africa to assist in saving her
from the calamity of a restoration to Radi
cal rule. Even the ladies throughout the
Land of Flowers are participating
tively in the enthusiasm for Democracy
and good government which prevails,
and there is every indication that, on the
second of November, Radicalism will be
routed horse, foot and dragoon.
It is not to be wondered at that such
determination to secure a Democratic
triumph is manifest among all the citi
zens of our sister State who are in the
a.igatest degree interested in her soil or
future welfare.
Mr. Charles E. Dyke, of the Tallahas
see Floridian, in his excellent speech
delivered before the Hancock and Biox
ham Club of his city on the Gth inst.
and which, by the way, is one of the
best campaign documents we have ever
seen, gave certain very potent reasons
why it is of vital necessity that Radical
ism should never again be placed in power
in that State. He shows,among many other
things, that in 1877, when the present
Democratic administration superseded
that of Stearns, there was in the Trea
sury of the State but $31,324 74 in
money, while against this there stood an
amount of debt of $299,089 38. Yet
from 1868 to 1877—while the Radicals
were in almost absolute power—there
had been wrnng from the people in the
way of taxes the enormous sum of
$3,032,359 83 or an average of $356,
648 12 per annum, and there was, at the
end of the time, not a cent in the Treas
ury to meet the floating debt of nearly
$300,000, except the $31,324 74, above
mentioned. Nor was this all, for as Mr.
Dyke says, not only bad the $3,000,000
collected from the people been
made way with without liqui
dating this floating debt, but
the bonded debt had been increased
$919,204 65, or at the rate of $108,123 84
per annum. lie dwells on this point
with telling effect, and at much greater
length than we have space to
devote to it. But enough may
be seen from the above
hasty statement of his figures to show
that when he says Radical rule in his
State was marked by “criminal waste
and extravagance on the part of imbe
cile and corrupt rulers, and downright
stealing by their agents,” he speaks but
the simple, plain truth.
In pleasing contrast to this is the
record made by the Democracy during
the pa9t three years. Iu that time there
has been a gradual reduction in taxation
from $1 20 on the $100 of property to
70 cents, while in the same time there
has been a saving to the tax payers of
$367,730 88, or an average of $122,-
576 96 a year. And this too, so far
from injuring it, keeping the credit of
the State higher than it ever was.
These facts and figures, given by Mr.
Dyke, arc authentic and cannot be dis
puted. No wonder, then, that the bare
idea of a return to the rule and ruin of
Radicalism makes every patriotic citi
zen of Florida hasten to the front
and strive with all his might to
do what in him lies to avert
such a catastrophe. There is no
reasonable doubt of success, and we
confidently anticipate, on the morning of
the 2nd of November, recording the fact
that Florida, besides giving an over
whelming vote for Bloxham, Bethel and
the State ticket, has, equally as de
cidedly, chosen Hancock and English
electors, and returned a solid delegation
to the National Legislature.
The Senatorial Nomination.
The convention of the First Senatorial
district, consisting of delegates from the
counties of Chatham, Bryan and Effing
ham, assembled at Eden yesterday, and,
as will be seen by the report of the pro
ceedings in our local columns, nominat
ed Mr. Peter W. Meldrim, of Chatham,
to represent the district in the State Sen
ate. Mr. Meldrim is a young lawyer of
ability,and though inexperienced in legis.
lation, will doubtless ably and faithfully
discharge the duties of the position. It
is understood that Mr. Meldrim will ac
cept the nomination.
“You arc warned.” said Hon. C. P.
Wheeler, of New York city, iu a recent
speech, “of the solid South and South
ern war claims. If we are to distrust
the South forever, it is no Union. We
fought that the flag might not lose a
State. Now that our adversaries have
surrendered, why should we try again to
drive them to the wall? The noniina
tion of Hancock removed all fears, if
ever there was any, of the payment of
Southern claims. That Southern buga
boo is like the red spectre which Napo
leon kept exhibiting to the French peo
ple. It kept him long on the throne.
But at last it lost its power and the
French have found that order and pros
perity are greater under a republic.”
It is suggested, in view of the fre
quency with which fatal mistakes are
made in the preparation of prescriptions,
that a law should be passed compelling
druggists to keep their poisons in bot
ties with flut» d sides. The idea is a good
one. By this means the danger of one
bottle being taken for another would be
greatly decreased if not altogether re
moved. The sense of touch would at
once apprise the druggist of the contents
of the phial he was handling in case he
should mistake one bottle for another,
which is the way in which most of the
poisoning accidents occur.
We were wrong in our surmise that
W. S. Scruggs is at present Minister to
the United Stales of Colombia. Mr.
Scruggs represented this government at
Bogota until the commencement of Mr.
Hayes’ administration, when he was
succeeded by Senator Christiancy. Mr.
Scruggs is now United States Consul at
Kanagawa.
Cotton seed, comparatively a new
article of commerce, continues to bear
an important part in the business of New
Orleans, the receipts having been 3,607,-
573 bags in 1880 against 3,670,632 in
1879.
Jay Gould has paid the traveling ex
penses from the Indian Territory of six
teen young Indian girls who are to be
placed in Mr. Moody’s Seminary at
Northfield, Mass., educated at the Fede
ral expense and returned to their homes.
The government, instead of being run
for the people, seems to be mainly run
now in the interest of the Republican
party. This is not exactly carrying out
the ideas of those who founded it.
Big Gnns The Best Peace Makers.
As we read the “butchers’ bills” of an
cient and mediaeval battles, when fight
ing was almost altogether hand to hand,
and compare them with the relatively
smaller losses of our modern battlefields,
we recognize the influence of gunpow
der and its scientific uses in producing
this life saving result The more de
structive the ordnance of armies the
greater within given space of time
the material and moral effects they
produce, and the sooner do they
present facilities for check-mate.
One party or the other can learn more
readily and definitely when it is whipped,
and retire from a contest in which human
life is uselessly played against an isue al
ready determined. Formerly Emperors
and Kings rushed their subservient sub
jects into bloody wars on slight provoca
tions. But gunpowder and Democracy
Lave put brakes upon the “divina right
of Kings” and their arbitrary exactions.
The belligerent nations of the world at
this time are Great Britain, Russia and
the United Suites, who are always fight
ing somebody. Great Britain in India,
Russia in the Caucasus, and the United
States in the Iudian Territory, keep up
an incessant popping of small arms,
with occasional roars of field artillery,
presenting all of the dangers and hard
ships of nobler warfare without
honors and rewards. Often have we
feit indignant at the miserable claptrap
of unprincipled demagogues who fool
lshly make attacks upon our little army,
either in the gratification of personal
malice or in the hope of catching votes.
And often have we admired the quiet
heroism with which these abused soldiers
have discharged their duties in spite of
the epithets hurled at them by lazier and
insignificant M. C.’s of the small potato
produce of the political field. W
recollect that some years back one
of these prominent specimens of vitu
perative ignorance rose to the climax of
his eloquence in denouncing the officers
of the army as “wasp-waisted vampires.
And yet there is no class of citizens in
the United States, perhaps, to whom the
country owes greater pecuniary and
political benefits than to these si
abused officers. Having no privileged
classes in the republic, the road to dis
tinction lies broad and fair through the
army, and in consequence most of our
best Presidents have passed nobly
through its ordeals to the White House.
But political rewards are not the only
fairly earned favors bestowed upon our
army men. Their contributions to sci
ence iu the military branches have as
sisted materially in the development of
the terrible engines of war now used
and, consequently, they have done their
share in keeping nations quiet and saving
human life. They are in fact “explosive
philanthropists, and their warning mot
to “Beware! ’ Under military Presidents
the country is peaceful, as no man avoids
a declaration of war so much as he who
has partaken of the horrors of war.
Occasionally exceptions to the law of
humanity are found in great captains,
as in Alexander and Napoleon, who
waded in blood for self aggrandizement.
Iiut, as a general rule, the skillful, high
toned, experienced, accomplished soldier
is a safe political leader.
Letter from General Hancock.—
General Hancock, having been invited
to attend a Democratic meeting at Hicks-
ville, Ohio, wrote a letter of regret at
being unable to attend, and concluded
“The meeting will be one of unusual in
terest, honored, as it will be, by the
presence of those two prominent leaders,
Senator Thurman and Governor Hen
dricks. The cause must be one of no
ordinary kind that brings together these
two emineut men on the borders of the
two great States of which they have
long been distinguished representatives.
I have reason to feel proud of being
prominently identified with a cause that
is upheld by the patriotism and ability
of such advocates. I regret that I can
not be present on this occasion to share
with my fellow citizens the lessons of
wisdom and patriotism that cannot fail
to emanate from such sources. I feel as
sured that the proceedings of the meet
ing will enforce the people’s demand for
honesty, economy and efficiency in the
public service for the peace and welfare
of the country. For the security of free
institutions and for all the rights and
liberties of the citizen as guaranteed by
the Constitution and the laws, let us
hope that the masses of the people,
whose interest stretch away beyond the
schemes and temporary triumphs of
mere partisan warfare, will take affairs
into their own hands and properly settle
the question as to whether we shall have
a new era of peace, reconciliation, econo
my and prosperity.”
Spanish Propositions to tiie United
States.—According to the Madrid cor
respondent of the New York Herald, the
Spanish Minister of Foreign Affairs has
addressed a memoiandum to the United
States favoring the framing of a com
mercial treaty with the United States on
the basis of reciprocity. If this cannot
be done iu the present state of opinion
in Congress and in American commer
cial circles, Spain, it is intimated, will
readily accept a convention, making
concessions in the Cuban and Porto Rico
tariffs on flour and imports from
the Uuited States, provided the
United States Government would agree
to make equivalent concessions on Cuban
sugars exported to the American mar
kct. Either of these propositions would
be advantageous to the trade of both
countries if they could be carried out,
but the fate of M. Cbotteau’s endeavors
to bring about a commercial treaty be
tween the United States and France, on
the basis of mutual concessions in the
tariff charges on certain specified arti
cles produced in the respective countries,
admonishes us not to expect much from
these offers on the part of the Spanish
Minister of Foreign Affairs.
In addition to his many other virtues
which have so endeared him to his sub
jects that they are ready at any moment
to fire him into the next world, the Czar
of Russia has the reputation of being i.t
the mercy of female intrigue and of
being a singularly unfaithful lover. He
as several illegitimate families to fall
back upon in case his subjects eradicate
the legal branch with bullets and dyna
mite, and has already made preparations
to legitimatize one of these, off hand. He
is to be married morganatic&lly, it ap
pears, to his titled mistress, the Princess
Dolgorouka. This will not give her the
title of Czarina, but it will rank her
children next to their half brothers of
the Imperial family, and provide four
more Imperial young persons to be kept
in aristocratic magnificence out of the
earnings of the heavily taxed and im
patient lower class. As the head of the
Greek Church the Czar can make out his
own dispensations, which is convenient
Tanner’s failure as a lecturer seems to
be complete. At Hartford, Conn., last
Friday night his agent sold only three
tickets for a lecture which had been an
nounced, and consequently the doctor
did not appear on the stage.
The French Cabinet Crisis.
The resignation of M. de Freycinet,
the French Premier, and with him Ad
miral Jaurequiberry, Minister of Marine,
and M. Yarroy, Minister of Public Wor
ship, and the appointment of M. Jules
Ferry to be Premier, with a reorganized
Cabinet, puts an end to the disputes in
the French Ministry on the question of
enforcing the decrees against the unau
thorized religious orders. M. de Frey
cinet was disposed to be content with
the expulsion of the Jesuits, and resisted
as impolitic, if not illegal, the execution
of process against the other religious or
ders not formally recognized by the State.
Among these are the Dominicans, the
Marists, the Christian Brothers, the Car
thusians, and other communities. It
alleged that the law against some of
these orders could not apply at all.
But the extreme wing of the Cabinet
the men who favored the return of the
Communists with plenary absolution for
all past offenses, were determined upon
forcing their dissolution, and making
education in France in the interest of the
republic wholly secular. As the prime
moving power behind them stands M.
Gambetta, who is once more in accord
with the extreme Left of the Chamber of
Deputies, and appears to exercise at this
time a controlling power over the desti
nies of France. The accession of M.
Ferry to the Premiership marks the
strong radical advance that has been
made in the composition of the Cabinet.
He was the author of the educational bill
which by its rejected seventh section
would have deprived all of the French
religious orders of the right to teach in
any of the schools, whether public or
private. The rejection of that clause
of the educational bill led to the un
earthing of old laws, that it was
supposed had become obsolete, against
the residence in France of what are
Called unauthorized congregations. The
reluctance of M. de Freycinet to carry
out these decrees against any of the
religious orders except the Jesuits has
led him to resign rather than be the in
strument to execute what he believes to
be arbitrary measures. M. Ferry has no
such compunctions. The decrees will
now be inforced. The religious orders
struck will be dissolved quietly or sen
tence of expulsion formally declared
against them. What the upshot will be
no one can foretell. Provincial France
is strongly Catholic, and all the clergy
of that church have already strongly
protested against the decrees whose
rigorous execution has been undertaken
by M. Ferry.
Couiiog Events Cast Their Shadows
Before.”
In the olden times of George Washing
ton. John Hancock. Elbridge Gerry,
Thomas Jefferson, and their patriotic
companions, the long stride of the United
States was indicated by the expression
‘from Maine to Georgia.” Afterwards
it was extended southward, “from Maine
to Louisiana.” And, to-day, still stretch
ing to the south, we say “from Maine
to Texas.” Whatever the changes in
the extent of territory, it was al ways the
State of Maine” we started from.
Maine was the known, determinate,
factor, our “Dan,” however variable
and indeterminate our “Beersheba.”
By a coincidence another Hancock
descendant of the first signer of the
Declaration of Independance, heads to
day the protest of the people against
the restoration of Imperialism, another
Declaration of Independence of the
Tory Radical Party. Singularly, the
first boom for freedom comes to us from
Maine. We accept the omen, hailing it
as the augury of sympathetic responses
from Maine to Texas.” The more
readily do we rejoice in it,
the socolled Republican ratifica
tion meeting in court house square
on Monday last, indicated, unmistakably,
that the backbone of Radicalism is broken
in Georgia, and that the colored race in
tend to manage their own affairs in their
own political and material interests, and
are no longer to be nose-led by the irre
sponsible politicians of Radical type.
From Maine to Georgia,” as in the days
of his revolutionary ancestor, rolls the
enthusiastic cheer, " Hurrah for Han
cock!” Nor will it cease to swell in
popular chorus until the mountains of
Mexico shall echo with the cry.
Colossal Wheat Farming on the Pa
eifle Coast.
Speaking of the mammoth farmers
and farming in California, a San Fran
cisco correspondent of the St. Louis Re
publican says: “Dr. Hugh J. Glenn made
his first purchase of the Jacinto grant,
California, in December, 1867, and com
menced farming in the wonderfully pro
ductive Sacramento Valley. He has how
a farm of 65,000 acres, 45,000 of which
are in wheat, and has 175 miles of fence.
Of this year’s crop, Dr. Glenn says,
although he has on hand 350,000 sacks,
each holding 140 pounds, he thinks
they will not hold his wheat. He
has his own machine and blacksmith
■hops, boring, turning and plan
ning machines, buzz saws, etc.
He manufactures his own wagons,
separators, headers, harrows, and nearly
all the machinery and implements used.
He has employed .50 men in seeding and
150 in harvest, 200 head of horses and
mules, 55 grain headers and other wag
ons, 150 sets of harness, 12 twelve foot
headers, 5 sulky hayrakes, 12 eight-mule
cultivators, 4 Gem seed-sowers. 8 Buck
eye drills, 8 mowers, 1 forty eight-inch
separator, 36 feet long and 13$ feet high,
with a capacity of 10 bushels per minute;
forty-inch separators, 36 feet long;
forty-feet elevators for self feeder, 1
steam barley or feed mill, and 2 twenty-
horse-power engines. The forty-eight-
inch separator threshed on the 8th of
August, 1879, 5,779 bushels of wheat in
one day.”
Conkling's Indorsement of Garfield.
It is customary, says the Washington
Pont, when one friend indorses another
to do so iu unconditional and explicit
terms. An indorsement is of no value
in any other form. It must not suggest
the faintest degree of doubt on the part
of the indorser as to the entire correct
ness of what he writes in favor of the in
dorsee. Otherwise, a suspicion at once
arises in the mind of third parties that
the letter, or whatever it may be,
a mere formality, writen in dis
eharge of some unpleasant obligation
or to get rid of some pertinacious beg
gar. Suppose the writer says: “I think
know” that the person named is fit for
the position he seeks; or, that he is com
petent for the place, “there 6eems no
reason to doubt”—the bearer’s first im
pulse would be, if possessed of any pride
or self respect, to tear the thing up or
pitch it into the fire. Yet how much
more than this doe3 Mr. Cockling say of
the standard bearer of his own party?
The language in his New York speech is
this:
“That he has the intelligence, expe
rience and habits of mind which fit a
man for the Presidential office, I think
know. That he is competent to the
duties before him, there seems to me no
reason to doubt. ”
With what satisfaction or assurance,
asks the Post, can General Garfield carry
around in his pockets and show to his
friends, such a half-hearted indorsement
as this, which bears upon its face the
impress of having been extorted from
the high-cock-alorum of the Republican
party, only by the pressure of very dis
agreeable and obnoxious circumstances?
Never Indorsed It
Governor Colquitt has written the fol
lowing letter denying that he ever in
dorsed Colonel McKinley's speech made
before the State Agricultural Society
several years since in opposition to the
sale of homesteads or farms to the freed-
men:
Atlanta. Ga.. September 13. 1880.
Hon. W. J. Northern, Sparta, Ga.:
I have your letter, and am amazed at
the variety of the misrepresentation that
the opposition use to defeat me.
The statement that I have at any time
been opposed to selling land to the col
ored people is utterly untrue. On the
contrary, I un for evrything that will
make them good, useful, moral citizens,
bound to the State by ties of property,
educated for the very highest discharge
of the duties of citizenship. The Agri
cultural Societyjdid not adopt the speech
of Mr. McKinley, years ago. Ilis views
were the views of no one but the
speaker, and while the society
thanked him as a matter of formal and
customary courtesy for his effort to
entertain* them, and possibly published
his adtlress as part of the proceedings of
the society, they no more adopted his
ideas or indorsed them than they did the
conflicting opinion- about farming that
at every session of the society gentlemen
constantly expressed.
So fer from my being opposed to the
colored people buying land, I believe it
is the best way to make them the best
citiz- ns to give them property right to
lands. And I should sell them land if I
had the chance. I am very truly yours,
A. H. Colquitt.
The only attempt ever mide to revive
the Confederate bonds was in 1869,when
the cashier of a Washington bank which
was fiscal agent of the government ad
vertised an offer to “buy all that is offer
ed at the best rates.” This cashier wa9,
it is stated, a notorious lobby agent in
the service of Boss Shepherd and Jay
Cooke & Co. The adoption of the four
teenth amendment to the constitution
by the States cut short the intended Re
publican job. It wa3 the only effort
ever made to pay Confederate bonds.
New York Republican politicians are
whispering that there is a big scheme on
foot for the capture of that State. They
intimate that Johnny Davenport has re
signed his position as Clerk of the United
States Circuit Court, in order that he may
devote his whole time and his well known
talent to the working up of the scheme.
The War Cloud in Gerinaoy.
New York Commercial Bulletin
The principal business of Kaiser Wil
helm and Prince Bismarck just now |
seems to be to prepare the people for the
next war. The full text of the Kaiser's
address “to the soldiers of the German
host” on the occasion of the tenth an
niversary of the German victory over
the French at Sedan, which now reaches
us by mail, breathes a warlike spirit in
its references to the future which the
cable version of it failed to catch. He
appeals to the troops to preserve, under
all circumstances, the strictest discipline,
and to remember that the army can only
accomplish great successes “if diligence
in preparatory training for war never
wearies it. and if. furthermore, the
slightest detail is not disdained in order
to give a firm and sure foundation to its
trained efficiency.” Ttiese arc ominous
sentences, and their meaning is none
the less significant from the fact
that they were followed by an im
posing review of the troops, such as Ger
many has not witnes-ed since the dav9
of Sedan itself. Naturally, the spectacle
has touched French sensitiveness to the
quick, and there is a universal inquiry
on this side of the Rhine as to what it
all means, accompanied by judicious
hints as to increased precautions on the
part of the War Department. Mean
while, however, as if instinctively ap
preciating the drift of things, emigration
from all the German ports is more active
than at any time heretofore. Every
steamer has its full quota, witn every
indication that the movement will be
maintained until late in the fall. All
this is natural enough. The depressed
condition of German industry, the pos
sibility of another conscription, with the
increased cost of living resulting
from high taxes that are necessary
to maintain an immense army, even
in time of peace, are impressing the Ger
mans that the l»est place for them and
their families is anywhere but in their
own country. By this process, the im
perial system is rapidly impoverishing
the countiy, at the same time that the
Kaiser himself is manifestly preparing
the wav for further extravagant expendi
tures for military purposes, which an
ever present apprehension of French re
tali at ion for Sfcdan is the excuse or justi
fication. The spectres of commuuism
aud socialism have not disturbed the
Chancellor and his master of late, but it
seems to us if anything can revive them
and keep them iu countenance, it is these
official notifications that the only man
that is to be permitted to have any
chance in the Fatherland is the Man on
Horseback.

Diamonds Mrs. Grant Did Not Get
‘Mac,” correspondent of the Hartford
Times, writes the following to his paper
from Washington:
Gen. Grant’s particular business here,
this time, is to look up the facts in re
gard to a robbery. The particulars of
this robbery are made public for the
first time in this letter. It appears that
soon after the Khedive of Egypt sent
Gen. Sherman’s daughters their presents
of diamonds, one of the high potentates
of Japan struck on the idea of sending
some diamonds to Mrs. Grant. They
were accordingly selected aud sent to
Washington; but, strange as it may ap
pear, they never reached Mrs. Grant—
though it is known they reached this
city. If a man was ever cursed with
private secretaries, bad brothers and
worse brothers-in law. that man
U. S. Grant And it is
to ascertain which particular private sec
tary stole these diamonds that he comes
here now. The diamonds came, and
were received by some one about the
White House, who, being hard pressed
for money, sold them for ($5,(KK)) five
thousand dollars. General Grant never
knew of the present being sent to his
wife until quite recently. Nothing was
said to him when he was in Japan,
though the Japanese Prince who made
the present thought that, under the cir
cumstance?, General Grant should cer
tainly have acknowledged the receipt of
the same. Some months ago this Jap
anese Prince wrote to the Japanese Min-
lsler here, asking him to ascertain
vin tner or not Mrs. Grant ever received
his present. The inquiry was made by
General Beale, who was known to be an
intimate friend of General and Mis.
Grant. From them he learned that
no such preseut had ever been received.
They were then informed, for the first
time, that the diamonds had been sent.
Grant kicked up a terrible row aliout it,
and sent numerous telegrams to the gen
tleinen who were employed about the
White House at the time when the dia
monds were supposed to have arrived
there. None of them knew anything
about it—or at least claimed to be igno
rant. Grant then telegraphed a friend
here to investigate the matter and let
him know the result This frieud found
that the diamonds arrived here, aud that
they had been turned over to a gentle
man at the White House, to be given to
Mrs. Grant. How the rest of the story
came out I don’t know; but it is to the
effect that the gentleman soon thereafter
sold the diamonds for $5,000. They are
still held by the party who pur
chased them, and he, it is under
stood, is perfectly willing to surren
der, upon his receiving his advance and
$1,500 additional, for his care of the
same, and secrecy. This party is sup
posed to be the richest pawnbroker in
the city. Who the particular private
secretary of the exPresident is, who is
suspected of committing this particular
crime, is not known. It is probable that
Grant will get the diamonds, and that he
will force friends of the thief to raise the
amount necessary to redeem them or ex
pose him by causing his arrest, or at
tempting to do so. At most the offense,
legally, is a breach of trust, in this dis- |
trict, and this is not a criminal offense.
The only way, legally, to recover, is by
a civil suit, unless the guilty party com
promises the matter—as he probably will
and agrees to return the property wrong
fully taken by him.”

The value of wives varies in different
countries. In America they are often |
expensive companions, but in the higher |
regions of the River Amur, and on the
Ussuri, in Siberia, according to informa
tion furnished to the British Scientific j
Association by the Rev. Henry Lansdell,
the price of a wife is eight or ten dogs, a
sledge, or two cases of brandy. In an
other part of the world, according to
evidence furnished to the same associa
tion by Wilfred Powell, in New Britain
and the neighboring inlands on the east
coast of Guinea, the wives are the abso
lute property of their husbands, and are j
bought, sold and eaten by their better
halves. There was one New Britain
young woman who had rebelled at her
matrimonial relations, whereupon her
husband said he could put her to better
use, and straightway killed and ate her.
Unfortunately, according to the same
authority, the eating in New Britain is
not confined to wives. The natives are |
fond of missionary meat, and think the
English are unutterably stupid because
they are unwilling to feast on such a |
delicacy as the human thigh, prepared in
cocoanut milk and dressed in banana |
leaves. Mr. Powell does not advise
woman to emigrate to New Britain.

the child, and had barked to attract the |
attention of the engineer. The faithful
animal had sacrificed his life rather than I
desert his charge. The child had wan
dered away from a neighboring house,
followed by the dog, and it is supposed
that the child lay down and went to sleep
on the track. ”
