MONDAY, MAY 30. 1881.
One Dr. Wild, of Canada, predicts
fifty-five years of war after 1882, and
announces that the millennium will
begin in 193-1.
A Washington dispatch says: "One
of the highest officers of the House of
Representatives is reported, and it is
believed with truth, to be in great dis
tress on account of having spent several
thousand dollars belonging to members
of the House which was entrusted to
him.”
The Czar Alexander 11. left twenty
five million dollars on deposit at London
banks. His Majesty must have been
meditating abdication and a London
residence before his assassination. He
had some millions also in Holland banks,
and a considerable sum is said to be
loaned at interest in this country.
Vance is the name for anew county
just erected by a vote of the people of
Granville and Warren counties, North
Carolina. The county is named for
United States Senator Z. B. Vance. It
is said there are several thousand chil
dren in the old North State named af
ter the same genial and eloquent Sena
tor.
The little town of Akron, Ohio, was
the first to try the tower system of light
ing with electricity. The system has
been in operation there for over a month
and has been found such a complete suc
cess that the City Council baß just de
termined to establish five more stations,
each with a tower 175 feet in height.
Cleveland will try this plan in a few
days.
Laborers’ wages in Mexico, which
were 18| cents a day, have now, under
the influence of the railway boom.reached
the high rate of 43 cents a day. The
Galveston News remarks, in this con
nection, that it has now become more
profitable in Mexico to work than to
steal or beg or be a soldier, who com
bines both beggary and theft in h s
operations.
It is said that the temperance fever
runs so high in Southern California that
in one town two saloons have been blown
up with bombs. Some newspapers think
it would not be surprising to see the
temperance revival assume shape as a
great national movement. One editor
says there arc signs of this in many quar
ters—but they are not in the head quar
ters of that editor.
A mammoth hotel is to be erected at
the Hot Springs, Arkansas, by a com
pany of wealthy capitalists of Lewiston,
Me., headed by Colonel J. T. Small. In
size and all the modern improvements
and appliances, it is destined to be second
to none in the great Western country,
and which will not be outdone in point
of modern style and improved achitec
ture for many years to come.
In point of health and low death-rate,
New Orleans compares favorably with a
great many cities that have a very high
reputation for good sanitary condition.
The death rate in New Orleans, for in
stance, is only 21 per thousand among
its white population, while in London,
the capital of Great Britain, the most
perfectly organized city in the world, it
is 23.05, and in Paris, the centre of civ
ilization, it is 25.69.
The Galveston News believes that the
glory is departing from New York. It
sees evidence of this in the failure of
the World’s Fair, the shipment of grain
down the Mississippi, the loss of a large
share of the coffee trade, and various
other commercial disasters. New York
is still the financial capital of the coun
try, the News admits, but it is rapidly
losing its position as the commercial
capital.
The task of collecting, correcting and
revising the statistics of the tenth census
is drawing to a close, and it is now an
nounced that the entire work will be
completed in time for publication by the
first of October next. The forthcoming
census report williie more comprehensive
and complete than any of the past, as
the work has been extended to embrace
facts and figures relative to every inter
est and production of the country, be
sides population.
The May number of the Magazine of
Art, published by Cassell, Petter, Galpin
& Cos., is an exceedingly brilliant num
ber. For some time past there has been
a marked improvement in this charming
magazine, which is now taking a promi
nent place in the art publications of the
day. Besides the attractive illustrations,
each number has a well selected variety
of excellent reading matter, and the
whole is presented by the enterprising
publishers in a very handsome form.
Chattanooga Times : “There are now
more inquiries for Tennessee property
by Northern men of capital than ever
before. Those who come here—and we
meet them daily—say they are willing to
make the State their home and invest in
our lands and manufacturing enter
prises, because they believe the debt' is
finally settled, the revenue in amount
fixed, and the State’s credit as good as
restored. Capital would not seek us if
its owners thought we were likely to re
pudiate. ”
Hon. Jefferson Davis has written a let
ter declining an invitation to be present
at the unveiling of a monument to the
unknown Confederate dead in Frederick
county, Maryland, on the 2d of June.
He takes occasion to say: "I am truly
grateful to your association for this en
during mark with which you honor the
brave men who sleep their last sleep in
the soil of Maryland. They died, not
for our cause, but for the cause of man
kind, their lives being a sacrifice to con
stitutional liberty, the right of a people
to govern themselves.”
Col. Carey W. Styles left last week
for Galveston, Texas, where he goes to
accept a position tendered him on the
editorial staff of the Galveston Daily
Newt, the leading paper of the “Lone
Star State.” Col. Styles is a high toned,
chivalric gentleman, an able writer and
experienced journalist, and will be an
important acquisition to the able and in
fluential paper with which he will in
future be identified. In his new field of
labor he will find ample scope for his
brilliant talents, and while we shall miss
him from the journalistic brotherhood of
Georgia, in which he has so long occu
pied a conspicuous position, we trust
that his hopes and aspirations may be
fully realized in his new position, and
that prosperity and happiness may at
tend him through a long and brilliant
career.
Seasonable Suggestions - How to Pro
mote Sanitary Reform.
Sanitary ordinances and regulations
are of very little effect unless they are
enforced la the household and main
tained by a constant popular vigilance.
"It would seem,” says the Sanitarian for
June, "that the people would embrace
eagerly any sanitary work which would
better their condition. But experience
shows this is not the case. What is
needed in sanitary reform is an intelli
gent co-operation from the people.
There must be, too, a moral force
behind the sanitary precepts, so
that when the precepts are
learned there will be courage and deter
mination to follow them. It is impossi.
ble to carry on sanitary work where
there is only a sentimental idea of it.
It is all very nice for us to feel philan
thropic, and to comfort ourselves with
the reflection that we read sanitary books
and attend sanitary conventions; but if,
while we do this, our foul drain is
sowing the seeds of disease, or our child
with a sore throat (which may be a mild
case of scarlet fever or diphtheria) is
attending school and spreading the dis
ease broadcast, surely we are very far
from the kingdom of sanitation. In
order to act intelligently we must
possess knowledge; and it is our duty to
embrace every means in our power to
learn of the laws of disease as well as of
health, and, having done this, it is clearly
our duty to put the knowledge gained
into early and effective practice. Master
the principles of the sciences which are
the basis of public health work, and we
will be impressed with the fact that the
possibility of the prevention of death
and disease is not the dream of the sen
timentalist but the deliberate conclusion
of the philosopher. ”
The Irish Troubles.
Matters are growing worse daily in
Ireland. The arrest of Mr. Thomas
Brennan, the Secretary of the Land
League, and his imprisonment in Dub
lin, increases the excitement and makeß
the outlook more gloomy and threaten
ing. A dispatch from Dublin says;
"The remark is heard everywhere
among the people: ‘The government is
trying every means to drive us to de
spair. They want to torture us until we
can stand it no longer, and then, be
cause we revolt, they will mow us down
with their artillery and their nfles.’ The
general feeling in Dublin, outside of
circles immediately connected with the
Castle, is that the arrest of Mr. Brennan
is a wanton act of malice, or else one of
the steps which are deliberately taken to
drive the people into acts of resistance
and violence.”
The people are represented as exas
perated beyond any former feeling by
this last act, and the talk of resistance is
spreading. The government insists that
Mr. Brennan was engaged in inciting
the people to outrage.
A London dispatch states that over a
thousand amendments have been pro
posed to Gladstone’s land act. The
land act of 1870 was emasculated of its
benefits by amendments in the same way,
and the present bill will doubtless meet
with the same fate. There is no prospect
whatever of relief for Irish tenants, under
these circumstances, this year, and the
only hope lies in extending the land agr
tation to England and Scotland, and in
making the country too hot for the
landed proprietors. The general agita
tion of this subject in the United King
dom is only a question of time, as the
shoe is pinching badly, and there will in
evitably be a popular wave like the
Chartist demonstration, which was
eventually the means of bringing about
some very important political changes
in England, Scotland and Ireland.
The Atlanta International Cotton
Exposition.
We have received a copy of the pros
pectus of the Atlanta Cotton Exposition,
giving the various officers, departments,
buildings, exhibits, etc. The prizes
awarded will be determined by juries.
The first prize will be the great gold
medal of the exposition, and will cover a
very broad field, being awarded for the
most important device or process which
shall have been proved by practical
use to be of such value as virtually to
supplant all those previously used. Be
sides these a number of special money
premiums will be awarded for superiori
ty in cotton culture on the grounds of
the exposition; also special gold and sil
ver medals and money premiums on de
vices for cotton cleaning, ginning, baling
and packing. The classification of de
partments is as follows; 1. Productive
machinery—implements, presses, etc.
2. Natural products^textiles, including
cotton, wool, eilk, hemp, flax, etc. 3.
manufacturing machinery. 4. Manu
factures. 5. Natural products—mine
rals, etc.
Gov. Colquitt. —The Nashville
American thus commented upon Gov.
Colquitt’s appearance in that city:
"Gov. Colquitt, Chief Magistrate of
Georgia, arrived in the city yesterday
evening. While he is here upon a liter
ary mission connected with our great
and growing educational institutions,
we extend him a welcome from all
classes, and in all respects we know that
we represent Tennessee and Nashville,
the State and city officials and the peo
ple in extending him a welcome as the
Chief Magistrate of that State which
stands alongside Tennessee in sound
credit, intellectual and material develop
ment. While Alabama bids fair to
press close, Tennessee and Georgia take
the lead in the South. We give Gov.
Colquitt a hearty welcome as the leader
of the sound, liberal and progressive
elements in our sister State.”
Boston’s Wohld’s Fair Project.—
Over one hundred prominent business
men of Boston assembled Wednesday
evening to consider the feasibility of
holding a world’s fair in that city in
1885. Addresses favoring the project
were made by several of the gentlemen
present. Letters were read from Governor
Long and Mayor Prince regretting their
inability to attend the meeting. The re
sult of the discussion was the appoint
ment of a committee of conference,
representing the various trade and manu
facturing interests of Boston, who will
give full consideration to the subject
and report at a future meeting. The
advantages of Boston for holding a
world’s fair were substantially set forth
by the different speakers, and a favora
ble view given to the suggestion for that
purpose.
Grant and Garfield.— The friends
of General Grant say that neither he nor
they can ever, under any circumstances,
forgive President Garfield. They say
that General Grant was inveigled into
the White House with the invitation to
a social breakfast, and asked with a par
ticular air of friendliness whether he
had any requests to make; that the pur
pose was to betray him into giving in
formation as to how he could best be
snubb%j, as the only two requests he
made were ruthlessly disregarded. There
seems no doubt that President Garfield
will have to encounter for the long re
mainder of his term the active and bitter
opposition of the most influential ele
ment of the Republican party.
Glucose and Grape Sugar—A Profit
able Industry.
The Popular Science Monthly has a
timely article by Professor Wiley on the
manufacture of glucose and of grape
sugar, the latter being simply an exten
sion of the process for making the
former. This industry sprang up about
twelve years ago, and is rapidly extend
ing. Glucose is a sweet syrup made from
com starch, resembling in appearance
the molasses of cane sugar, and by
reason of its greater cheapness largely
affecting the consumption of the cane
product. Grape sugar is made to re
semble a finely-powdered sugar, and
is used extensively to adulterate
the sugar of commerce. Glucose
is used chiefly for the manufacture of
table syrups, but also in candies, as food
for bees, by brewers both in this coun
try and in England, and for making
artificial honey, the combs being mould
ed out of paraffine. Grape sugar is also
applied to some of the same purposes,
but principally for the adulteration of
other sugars. The cheapness with'
which glucose syrup and grape sugar
can be produced has led to its extensive
use. The most flourishing manufacto
ries are at the West, where corn was
bought last year at a little over thirty
cents per bushel. As from twenty
six to thirty-two pounds of glu
cose syrup or of grape sugar
are made from a bushel of
corn, the average cost of either to the
manufacturer is about one cent per
pound. As he sells either article at three
to four cents per pound the business is a
very lucrative one, and is rapidly extend
ing. On the Ist of August there weie ten
factories in operation in the United States,
consuming daily about twenty thousand
bushels of corn. There were also in
process of construction nine other fac
tories. with a total daily capacity of
twenty-two thousand bushels of corn.
Prof. Wiley estimates that not less than
eleven million bushels of corn will be
converted into glucose and grape sugar
during the present year, and says that
"every indication leads to the belief that
the amount will be doubled in 1882.”
Mr. William M. Wadley.
Augusta Chronicle and Constitutionalist.
One of the most conspicuous figures in
railroad circles in the United States is
Mr. Wm. M. Wadley, President of the
Central Railroad and lessee of the Geor
gia Railroad. He is the manager of a
great and important system, a system
which embraces a vast line of railways
and a magnificent line of steamers plying
between Savannah and New Y r ork. That
this system is destined to be of immense
benefit to the State of Georgia and to all
of its cities, no one who will take the
trouble to think over the matter can
doubt for a moment. We have it from
Mr. Wadley’s own lips that he will not
seek to build up any one portion of the
State to the injury of another, but he
will do ali in his power to advance the
general progress. When the lease of the
Georgia Railroad was first talked about
there were some who contended that
such a lease would be for the advantage
of Savannah at the expense of Augusta;
that cotton would be taken from way
stations of the Georgia Railroad and
transported to Savannah at a dispropor
tionately lower rate than to Augusta; or,
in other words, the long haul would be
more advantageous to the shipper than
the short. This, Mr. Wi.dley declares
most emphatically, will not be the case.
He is as much interested in building up
Augusta as he is Savannah, and
will do all in his power to
add to its trade and prosperity.
It was necessary, for the sake
of his own interests, that he should
obtain control of the Georgia Railroad,
and now, having obtained it, his posi
tion is impregnable. Nothing can be
done that will injure the system, and he
is determined that his State, in which he
has a great pride, shall profit by it. lie
regards the development of Georgia as
in its infancy, and believes that there is
a magnificent future before it. The wa
ter power of Augusta, he is satisfied, will
be the source of a rapid advancement for
this city, an advancement which he will
look upon with great interest and assist
by every possible means. He believes
that it will not be many years before a
line of European steamers will be run
ning into Savannah, combining with his
railroad system to open up and develop
the vast resources of Georgia.
For enterprise, devotion to purpose
and remarkable energy, Wm. M. Wadley
has no superior. He is a grand specimen
of those noble and progressive spirits
who have built up the waste places of
the country and added so much to the
greatness of our republic. It is known
of all men that in all his efforts Mr.
Wadley has not sought personal ag
grandizement, but with a lofty and
laudable ambition he has had one
object in view, the consolidation
of the great railway lines of the
State; and he has not rested until he
attained that end. We believe that in
carrying out his views to a successful
termination he has done that which must
redound to the good of the State, that
will aid wonderfully in its material de
velopment, and until the contrary of this
is shown we hold that it is the duty of
the people to give him their hearty and
unqualified approval and cooperation.
In all the stock excitement that has oc
curred in this section Mr. Wadley
has engaged in no speculations. He
has held to his one purpose, and when
that was accomplished his only desire
was the success of the system which
had taken shape under his master mind.
Mr. Wadley will reap his reward in the
increased prosperity of Georgia and the
approbation of his fellow citizens. We
in Augusta certainly have every reason
to be satisfied. Mr. Wadley has declared
most emphatically that he will do noth
ing to injure our trade, but rather to
build it up. We believe that at an early
day there will be an era of increased
improvement as a consequence of the
new system. Mr. Wadley has our best
wishes as he will have our hearty sup
port in everything that conduces to the
advantage of Georgia.
The infamy of the star route business
gains new force from every investiga
tion. The more it is looked into the
darker it appears, and it is doubtful if
all the rascality involved in it will ever
come to light. Brady’s main idea seemed
to be to make money, and there is no
doubt of the success that attended his
efforts. One case is reported where a
route forty-four miles long was con
tracted for, seven times a week, for six
months during the summer, at $1,040,
and the contractor offered to continue it
through the winter at the same rate, but,
without notice to him, the number of
the route was changed and given to an
other man for $14,760.
In another case, a route eighty miles
long, six times a week, was let to one
Cross, a friend of Senator Dorsey, of
Arkansas, for $14,400 a year, and then
sublet by contract at $4,800, Cross him
self making a bid on it. This is the
way [Garfield’s friend raised money to
help along a canvass, in wich he had a
vital interest, as its success was expect
ed to assist him to continue his nefarious
business.
Senator Mitchell, of Pennsylvania, is
not in accord with his colleague, Senator
Cameron, in the Conkling imbroglio.
He recently wrote to a friend in Wil
liamsport as follows:
"Your letter accords with all I have
received on the subject. I have never
doubted the propriety of sustaining the
President in this contest. He is battling
for liberty in political management, and
in asserting the right of the President to
nominate without fear of Senatorial dic
tation he is but defending the constitu
tion of our country. Therefore my
course has never been in doubt among
those who know me.”

Be reached by the shrewdest competition. We claim that every word we have
said in behalf of our Bazar is strictly true and not a siDgle jot overdrawn, for we
realize the fact that bombastic and senseless blowing injures the reputation of any
respectable house. Just as much as we are sensitive to have our word believed in
oar private surroundings, so jealously do we guard our public announcements. We
claim that whoever misleads the public by overdrawn advertisements is guilty of a
falsehood. Therefore we have avoided it, and for this reason our advertisement
commands the respect of the public. So much for our Bazar. Now for our
OUR DRY ROODS DEPARTMENT.
We offer this week our entire stock of ALL WOOL BUNTINGS, in colors, at

Clothing.
Facts vs, Claims.
Notwithstanding the great rush of Customers we’ve had during the past
six weeks, and the large amount of SPRING and SUMMER CLOTHING,
HATS and GENTS’ FURNISHING GOODS we’ve sold in that time, our
stock keeps still complete, as we receive additions thereto almost by ev.ery
steamer from New York. The people are realizing the fact that to buy
good Clothing is cheapest in the end, especially when they can be bought
at such low figures as we are selling them this season; and that we have
always endeavored to procure the very best goods in the market, and of
the very best makers, is a fact long known to our many customers. These
are not mere claims, but facts, of which we are ready to convince all those
who may favor us with a trial.
