Cotton Receipts Again.
A correspondent this morning has some
thing to say upon the subject of cotton
receipts, lie says “exaggerated impor
tance is attributed to an apparently se
rious comparative decrease in receipts.
If exaggerated, it is singular that it
awakens the lively interest of our cotton
merchants. The decrease is more than
apparent, if we admit that much that we
have not gotten could have been gotten
had the proper conditions existed or the
proper efforts been made.
-We are said to be losing our prestige
because certain railroads deem it to their
better interests to haul cotton six hun
dred miles in preference to two or three
hundred." Just so. and the question is,
shall not efforts be made to
lessen the amount thus diverted i
X'he through cotton may not profit the
port much “beyond the mere swelling of
the i'.lume of receipts,” but it is the “vol
ume of receipts” that gives a port its
rank, and that is the question at stake.
New Orleans is a “‘natural outlet" —quite
a natural outlet —but she is likely to lose
mueh of her trade. Comi>etition is the
life of trade, including the cotton trade.
It may be “stupid" to base an argument
on comparative quotations, but people are
wont to consult market prices and. by
the wav. when were the Savannah types
last changed? The New York Cotton Ex
change has deemed it wise to examine
the subject of classification, and it might
profit the savannah Exchange to do like
wise.
I ’aitli in Our Future.
Englishmen would appear to have an
abiding faith in the future of the Aireat
lb-public, judging from the extensive pur
chases of lands lieing made in this coun
try by British capitalists.
Only a short time ago Mr. Whallev, M.
I*., representing an English company,
bought 311,000 acres in Texas, and other
companies formed in London have also
made large purchases here. Recent
ly an English syndicate, through ex-
Senator Gordon, Ivought 1,300,000 acres of
lmttoin land in Mississippi, between Mem
phis and Yazoo. In addition to these late
purchases, the colossal Disston transac
tion in Florida lands four years ago and
Lord Lhmraven's investments in Colora
do may be nentiont-d. Mr. Disston liought
1.000.00n from the State of Florida, and
subsequently sold -2,000.000 acres to a syn
dicate of London capitalists.
The intention of these English gentle
men is to drain the land and fit it for set
tlement, and then invite immigration. A
steamship line will be established between
its principal port and Europe. Lord Dun
raven owns some thousands of acres of
Colorado land which hsts more than
doubled in value since he purchased it.
Besides these investments, Englishmen
have made extensive purchases in tlie
Northwestern States and Territories.
The New Y ork Shipping lAM musingly
remarks: “The reason w hy we are tveaten
in fields that ought to lie ours, from our
ability to suecessiully compete, and lrora
our geographical position, lies U{K>n the
surface. The merchants of other coun
tries go after trade and try to supply the
wants of their customers, while we wait
for trade to come to us, and when the or
ders come we fill them with goods out of
stock on hands, manufactured to meet
American wants, instead of the wants of
our neighliors. If our manufacturers and
merchants would take the trouble to as
certain what kind of goods we sell in those
countries, and then produce them,
they would soon find a better market for
their surplus production.” The Galveston
.Xi ir.s sees a different reason for the stale
things almve referred to. The .Yew* truth
fully says: ‘“The reasons why we are
lieaten,* as given aliove, may lie sound
logic in the estimation of the List; but
down this way it has generally been be
lieved that when a Yankee failed to find
out what people wanted, it was useless
for anybody else to try. YVhv not come
out and acknowledge that while we are
anxious to sell iKMits ami shoes and other
goods low for cash, we won’t agree to
swap goods at a fair value, and so the
trade must lie called off."
Gen. Grant and Joseph Cook met for the
first time in Chicago Friday, and, accord
ing to the Inter-Ocean, “the latter altered
his figures in the general estimate of
Grant's character and capabilities. The
man who lias the reputation of being one
of the best talkers in the country and the
man who has achieved some fame on ac
count of disinclination to talk went over
the ground traveled by each in a tour
round the world. Mr. Cook was free to
say that lie had never met a man whose
judgment on first impressions was so good
as Gen. Grant's, or w hose estimate of men
and things was so lair and comprehen
sive." - I'he discriminating reader will
note the modesty of the Rev. Flavius
Josephus in avoiding any reference to
himself.-though to discern what he* saw
in Grant he must have possessed what he
saw himself.
The stalwart Philadelphia X.etcs re
marks: “Postmaster General Gresham
is credited with the purpose of thoroughly
reorganizing his department. Age and
favoritism have impaired the etficieticy
of certain bureaus, and he proposes to
put fresh blood In. This is right. The
department should Im* made thoroughly
efficient: and yet a feeling of sympathy
will exist f.tr those who have served the
government so long and are now unfit for
other occupations. It is hard to throw
them out i>oor and helpless.’’ This is
most tenderly put. but the stalwart Mr.
A onklinghas announced that the Demo
crats are going to take dhntrol and these
faithful and broken down servitors had
lietter lie saving up. What a pity Robe
son ,v- Cos. did not make another “whack”
at the surplus for their benefit,
The 't. Louis GloLc-Democrat hopefully
helieves that “there is a time coming
when the means of living in this country
will lie far lietter and cheaper than man
has ever seen or dreamed of since he was
ejected from the (warden of Eden.” This
view is based on the steady growth of
fruit and vegetable raising in the South
and its transportation to Northern mar
kets. Editor McCullough, too, probably
lias a well defined suspicion that our ad
mirable war tariff must go, though he is
not prepared to ventilate the suspicion as
Vet.
Senator Hill, of Colorado, figures a Re
publican victory in ISSL He concedes
New York to the Itenioerats, Oregon to
the Republicans, and says the doubtful
States are California, Connecticut, Indi
ana, Nevada, New Jersey, Ohio and Vir
ginia. He expects the Republicans to
carry some Suit hern States. It is well to
oliserve that Mr. ('tinkling differs with
Mr. Hill, hut Editor Gorham thinks the
Republicans must carry some Southern
states. There is a shade of difference bo
ttle n will and must.
The Railway Register calls attention to
the fact that for tears the cost of railway
labor anti supplies has increased, while
the rates for freight transportation have
steadily decreased. At the same time
conflicting lines are multiplying ra]t
idly. it suggests that the question of
profits in future will probably be answer
ed by a reduction >n operating exjienses
through the practice of rigid economy
and improvement in railway appliances.
This, w ith the growth of traffic, will hold
up the net earnifigs.

xj r \\'attorsion on Southern Homi
cides.
lion. Henry Watterson, the. brilliant
editor of the Louisville Courier-Journal,
on Tuesday night lasLdelivered an address
betore the literary societies of Vanderbilt
University, Nashville, Tenn., upon “The
Homicidal Side of Southern Life.” Mr.
Watterson’s remarks, a synopsis of which
we present elsewhere, were called
forth by the seeming crusade which
Northern journals are w aging upon this
section by reason of the alleged insecuritv
of life in the South as compared with
the North, as well as by the lengthy letter
of ex-Senator Schurz upon the same sub
ject. addressed to the editor of the Morn
ing News.
Mr. Watterson, as is his wont, replied
vigorously and eloquently. He showed
that the State of Ohio was the scene of a
greater amount of bloodshed than Ken
tucky. and contended that the Northern
journals were doing this section a vast
amount of material injury by dwelling so
extravagantly on an evil the magnitude
of which was exaggerated. He did not
and could not deny that there
was too much bloodshed in this
section, and depreciated the impetuosity
that led to undue resentment of trilling in
juries, as also the fondness for carrying
firearms. Mr. Watterson further referred
to the fact that much of the violence at
South was due to the snrvival of a spirit
begotten during the war period, but which
is happily waning.
We would like to follow the orator in
detail, but as we have already treated ex
tensively upon the subject we shall leave
it till we deem proper to resume it. As
might have been expected. Mr. Watterson
has been misjudged by several Northern
journals, and it would appear that what
ever fruits his remarks may produce will
be reaped almost entirely in this section.
The esteemed Boston Advertiser re
marks with infinite gusto: “The Chinese
in Georgia are "encountering an opposi
tion which will gladden Californians
almost as much as if severak mines had
lieen discovered in their State —at least
their professions of deep feeling on the
subject make this assertion reasonable.
A colony of A'hinese settled near IN aynes
boro and occupied humble buildings.
Their white neighbors made a raid and
destroyed the Chinese homes. Civil and
criminal suits were instituted on liehalf
of the Chinese. The grand jury refuses
to bring in a bill of indictment, and the
citizens are reported to sympathize en
tirely with the young men who made such
a clean job of ruining the Chinese build
ings. The Chinaman is evidently there
regarded as almost equal in repulsiveness
to the carpet-bagger.”
The reliable Springfield (Mass.) Repub
lican gives an account of the “gutting” of
a negro church in that town by a person
who had some sort of claim against it.
The carpets, bible, hymn book and church
furniture were seized by a hired band and
dragged into the street. Regretfully we
counsel our benevolent Boston contempo
rary to confine its missionary efforts to
the home field. Were it not for the high
authority that reports it we could scarce
ly credit the statement as to the violated
sanctuary of the Lord furnished by the
Republican.
“Gath” inquires: “How would Alex
ander Ramsey, of Minnesota, do for Presi
dent? He never touched anything but
good luck came to it. He is 08 years old,
hale as a brick: is of Scotch-Irish crossed
with the Pennsylvania Dutch stock; can
speak the CJertnan patois of Pennsylvania
as well as English; has been in public
life since the time the public schools were
oitened in Pennsylvania, In Andrew Jack
son's administration, and was in Con
gress from that state forty years ago, and
managed the State campaign there for
Zachary Taylor. This President made
him the first Governor of the Territory of
Minnesota, to which State he stands like
George Clinton to New York, General
Harrison to Indiana, and Lewis Cass to
Michigan. Its metropolitan - county is
named for him, and that dual-headed me
tropolis now lias 175,000 urban people.
He is the most distinguished citizen Min
nesota lias ever had; is oneof the wealth
iest, and his stomach is as hard as his
brains.” Considering Ramsey’s opportu
nities he ought to lie well heeled, but we
humbly suggest that Uncle Hannibal
Hamlin, of Maine, has the age on Ram
sey, but as the g. o. p. is badly embar
rassed, the latter's luck might lie worth
taking account of.
Editor Hastings, of the New York Com
mercial Advertiser, the able Stalwart or
gan, we are glad to say, regards Conk

Hastings remarks; “The Commercial

of the man who has passed through thirty
years of public life in an age of venality
and corruption without having his gar
ments soiled or having an itching palm.
Honesty and great ability ought to cover
a multitude of political errors. Public
men without a taint of sordidness, we re
gret to add, are like angels’ visits.”
Ex-Lieutenant Governor Underwood, of
Kentucky, now the editor of the Cincin
nati Xews-Jonrnal, says that Judge Geo,
Iloadley will lie the Democratic nominee
for Governor of Ohio and be elected. The
Germans, who left the Republicans last
year, will stick to the Democratic party,
according to Governor Underwood.

suggested progeny.
Hon. Relert H. Bishop, of Massachu
setts, says the Democratic party, “occu
pies a position of vague menace toward
many things which may be classified un

Butler buried the amiable Bishop, the lat

himself.
Savannah as a Cotton Market.
Savannah, May 30.— Editor Morning
.Vet es: There seems to be considerable
misconception on the part of the public
concerning the various circumstances of
our relative position as a cotton market,
Exaggerated importance is attributed toan
apparently serious comparative decrease
in receipts. We are said to be losing our
prestige because certain railroads
deem it to their letter interests
to haul cotton six hundred miles
in preference to two or three hundred.
Everybody in the business knows that a
port profits little from the “through” cot
ton that finds its ex|K>rt outlet at its
wharves, beyond the mere swelling the
volume of its receipts. lAt it l>e remem
liered that some thousands of this through
cotton diverted to other ports further
North by various factitious freight advan
tages is all the “receipts" we have lost.
The commerce of the city has suffered
verv little indeed, and as, of course, we
otter the most natural outlet, the dive.-
sion can only be temporary.
There is, however, another misconcep
tion. very stupid, it is true, out which, by
being circulated unexplained through the
Country, may work somewhat to our iu
jury; and that is the idea that prices ob
tained in Savannah are lower than else
where. Let it be understood that cotton
called “middling” in one place may l*e
classed “low middling” or “good mid
dling” in other markets, according to the
different types prevailing, and it will be
at once seen how misleading are compari
sons made from public quotations.
Now the buyers have their own par
ticular designation of the grades—that is,
orders are sent to buy so many bales of
“No, 3,” for instance. This represents a
fixed grade and stands for the same
quality in Norfolk, Charleston, Savan
nah or elsewhere, while in Charleston it
mar K e “low* middling” and in Savannah
•‘middling.”
It is a common thing all through the
season to hear the exporters say that they
can buy almost anywhere cheaper than
here; that Savannah prices are relatively
high, and that too when published quota
tions appear to indicate the very reverse.
Perhaps it would be very difficult to
keep a svstem of equal classification, al
though,on the whole, it is to be preferred;
but the difference in quotations means
nothing when the disparity of grades is
considered.
Even now our classes are quite high
enough by the standard of the leading
markets, and the higher ones—Charleston
for example—should be lowered.
The remedy would appear to lie in the
hands of the National Cotton Exchange.

The Oswego Times is discussing the

The first coronation of a Russian mon
arch took place in 1114, when the Grand
J)uke Vladimir, at Kieff, received from the
Byzantine Emperor, in Constantinople, a
crown, a cross made of what was suppos

other golden trinkets such as Emperors
like. Vladimir was crowned by a priest.
James Freeman Clarke's “Comparison
of All Religions,” just issued in Boston,
is probably the last important literary
work he will undertake. He is seventy
three years old, and not of strong phy

is careful in his habits of labor,’ and
never consciously overtaxes his powers.
The Dillon (M. TANARUS.) Tribune says: “At
Wadams’ ranch, on the Medicine Lodge,
a chicken was hatched lately that is a
curious freak of nature and a fowl mon
strosity. It has two heads, two backs and
one body, which is supported by four per
fectly developed legs. The chick, unable
to manage its many legs, tumbled out of
the nest and was killed, but it has been
stuffed and preserved as a curiosity.”

In 180, 7,289 pictures, statues, etc.,
were exposed, and ninety-three American
artists took part in the exhibition at the
Paris Salon; in 1882, there were 5,612
separate works and ninety American ex
posers; in 18H3, at the present Salon, there
are 4,943 works and ninety-five Americans.
That is to say, relatively to the number of
works exposed, the number of American
artists has slowly increased, or, to put it
in another way, the percentage of Ameri-.
cans who passed muster is higher in pro
liortion as the requirements for admission
liecome more severe.

miles. If the notes were placed in a pile
they would reach to a height of five and
tw<i-third miles, or if joined end to end
would form a ribbon 12,445 miles long.

An advertisement beginning “Cats
wanted,” has been put up in the West
minster (Vt.) post office by a herinit-likej
citizen who eats, sleeps, cooks and works
in a house of but one room, tobacco-sort
ing his vocation, cats his sole compan
ions and diversion. Last winter some
boys killed the pet of his household. Now
he wants “the present of a male kitten
about two-thirds grown.” He goes on:
“Only one need apply. Cats should lie
brought in sacks. Any cat brought for
examination and not wanted will be
drowned at the rate of ten cents each, in
advance. Said cat will receive the best
care, and will be ready for the boys to
shoot January 15, Ihhj.” The report is
that he is a tender-hearted man, fond of
visitors, master of several languages, and
hailing originally from Massachusetts.
The various coronations of the House
of Romanoff undoubtedly form a very
gloomy retrospect. Its founder, Michael
Feodorovitch, was crowned amid the ruins
of Moscow, which had been destroyed by
the Polish invasion of 1612, and but for
the devotion ot a Russian peasant his
reign would have been ended by treach
erous murder before it had well begun.
A similar fate overtook his third succes
sor, Peter the Great, who signalized his
accession bv tieheading hundreds of his
insurgent lifeguardsmen close to the gate
bv which Alexander 111. entered the
lvremlin a few days ago. Peter's daugh
ter, Elizabeth, ow’ed her crown to the vio
lent deposition of her predecessor, Anna
Ivanovna. Catharine ll.’s coronation was
celebrated while the corpse of her mur
dered husband. Peter 111., lay unburied
in the gloomy old palace of Oranienbaum,
twenty mile’s away, and the very hands
which held out the crown to Alexander
J.. at the opening of the present century,
had strangled his father, Paul.
I. W. Avery for the Chair of History.
Editors Augusta Chronicle: The recent
death of Gen.' W. M. Browne has made
vacant the chair of History and Political
Science in the University of Georgia.
Much may be said against the policy of
the Board of Trustees in combining de
partments of study that aredissimilar and
are in no way related. Much, too, may
be said against heavily burdening over
worked and poorly paid professors. But
such criticism is foreign to the intent and
scope of the suggestion herein contained.
The hope is fondly expressed that the de
partment of political science and history,
so vital in imparting useful knowledge to
the youth, in defining the rights and
duties of citizenship, and in supporting
the government, to which our allegiance
is due, will not die with the
learned and distinguished scholar
who so well illustrated the chair
from which he was untimely taken
by death. That this department should
grow and increase in dignity and strength
until it reaches unto the measure and
stature of the ideal of the dead mas
ter should he the care of the trustees.
Research wide and discriminating, phi
losophy deep and truthful, devotion and
familiarity to the genesis and traditions
of American institutions, are some of the
attainments needed to successfully teach
this school of learning. . Casting about
for someone it has occurred to me that it
would not lie inappropriate to suggest the
name of Colonel Isaac VL. Avery as a
suitable and properly qualified person to
till this chair. His attainments, his taste,
his ability, added to his pleasing address,
render him conspicuous at this time as
the proper man. Without personal ac
quaintance with this gentleman, the sug
gestion arises from the known worthy and
high merit of the man as he has illustrated
himsell as a lover of history and letters.
Amicus Univehsitaxis.
It seems impossible that a remedy made
of such common, simple plants as Hops,
Buchu, Mandrake, Dandelion, etc., should
make so many and such great cures as
Hop Bitters do*; but when old and young,
rich and poor, pastor and doctor, lawyer
and editor, all testify to having been cured
by them, you must believe and try them
yourself, and doubt no longer.
JtthttnL iUort
Biliousness and Bilious Patients.
Pertaining to Bile, Bilious Symptoms,
Bilious Temperaments. Tlie Remedy.
The Bilious is a disorder of the human
system. A technical definition of the term
is this: “Pertaining to the bile; disordered
in respect to the bile; as, a bilious patient;
dependent on an excess of bile; as, bilious
temperament: bilious symptoms.”
The word liile ? when employed in the
sense in which it is to be understood in
this article, signifies, according to the dic
tionaries, "a yellow, greenish, bitter, vis
cid, nauseous fluid secreted by the liver.”
“Any derangement of the Idle at once
manifests itself in great liodily discomfort,
in loss of appetite, and in despondency,”
recently remarked ;ui author of a valuable
treatise upon this subject.
The same writer further adds: “Some
of the following symptoms are usually
prominent: Pain in the right side, which
is very sensitive to pressure. The pain
will sometimes appear to lie located under
the shoulder blade. There is also irregu
lar appetite, flatulence, a sense of fullness
in the region of the stomach, and, sooner
or later, the skin and whites of the eyes
become yellow, the stools clay colored and
the urine yellow, depositing a copious sedi
ment.” 'i’lie balance of the too familiar
train of ills needs no further mention here.
The bilious is, as will he seen, an afflic
tion of great magnitude, and of varied
forms of direct and indirect appearance.
The disease is no respecter of persons or
localities. Its deadly and implacable
enemy is found in
Kidney-Wort.
It acts on the liver and kidneys at the
same time, and by its mild but’efficient
cathartic effects moves the bowels freely.
The morbid poisons that have been tlie
cause of all this disease and suffering will
lie thrown off; new- life will be infused into
every organ, and nature, thus aided will
soon restore the patient to health.
Physicians of repute and standing, men
who are honored for their probity, and
respected and trusted for their scientific
attainments, are using Kidney-Wort in
their practice regularly. No strongerevi
dence of the worth of the remedy would
seem to be necessary. Such indorsements
are few and far between. We had a'most
said that they were without precedent in
the history of a proprietary remedy. Be
that as it may, however, the fact remains
established that Kidney-Wort, is a match
less remedy, and one that needs only to lie
tested to demonstrate its rare merit as a
healer of most of the common maladies of
the human family.
Dr. Philip C. Ballou,
lives in Monkton, Vt. Under date of April
20th, 1882, the doctor wrote to the proprie
tors of Kidney-Wort, and said, among
other things: “Nearly a year ago I wrote
you about the success i had had in the useof
Kidney-Wort in my practice. The past
year. I have used it more than ever, and
with the best results. It cured Mr. Ethan
Lawrence, of this town, of a terrible case
of bloaXed kidney disorder. 1 have also
treated many other diseases successfully
with it. Constipation, in all its forms',
yields to it, and in rheumatic affections I
have known it to give almost immediate
relief. In female disorders it is equally
successful. Take it all in all it is the most
wonderful medicine I have ever used.”
Dr. Ballou does not stand alone in his ex
perience with this remedy. R. K. Clark,
M. D., of South Hero, Vt., says: “Kid
ney-Wort does all that is claimed for it.”
Whilst Dr. C, M. Summerlin, of Sun Hill,
Washington county, Gu., says, in a nut
shell: “Kidney-Wort cured my wife when
my own and other physicians’ prescrip
tions only palliated her troubles.”

The above U a good likeness ot Mrs. Lydia L Pink

may be truthfully called the “Dear Friend of Woman,’
as some ot her correspondents love to call her. Bh<
is zealously devoted to her work, which Is the outcome

assistants, to help her answerthe large correspondence
which daily pours in upon her, each bearing its special

Vegetable Compound is a medicine for good and not
evil purposes. I have personally investigated it and
am satisfied of the truth of this.
On account of its proven merits. It Is recommended
and prescribed by the best physicians in the country.
One says: “It works like a charm and saves much
pin xt will cure entirely the worst form of falling
of the uterus, Leucorrhoea, irregular and painful
Menstruation, all Ovarian Troubles, Inflammation and
Ulceration, Floodings, all Displacements and the con
sequent spinal weakness, and is especially adapted to
the Change of Life.”
It permeates every portion of the system, and gives
new life and vigor. It removes faintness, flatulency,
destroys all craving for stimulants, and relieve* weak
ness of the stomach. It cures Bloating, Headaches,
Nervous Prostration, General Debility, Sleeplessness,
Depression and Indigestion. That feeling of bearing
down, causing pain, weight and backache, is always
permanently cured by its use. It will at all times, and
under all circumstances, act In harmony with the law
that governs the female system.
It costs only $L per bottle or six for $5., and I* sold by
druggists. Any advice required as to special C sea, and
the names of many who have been restored to perfect
health by the use of the Vegetable Compound, can be
obtained by addressing Mrs. P., with stamp for reply,
at her home in Lynn, Hass.
For Kidney Complaint of either sex this compound U
unsurpassed as abundant testimonials show.
" Mrs. Pinkham’s Liver Pills,” says one writer, “ are
the bett in the world for the cure of Constipation,
Biliousness and Torpidity of the liver. Her Blood
Purifier works wonders in Its special line and bids fail
to equal the Compound In its popularity.
All must respect her as an Angel of Mercy whose sole
ambition Is to do good to others.
