Considerable interest is being taken
throughout the Mate in Georgia's pro
l>osed exhibit at the Boston .Institute
Fair, to lie held the first week in Septem

receive specimens of the agricultural,
horticultural, mineral and manufactured
products, and of the forestry of this Mate,
that may be furnished him by the citizens
f this state f.r the purpose of forward
ing the same to the exposition, has al
ready appeared in the News. The matter
was left in the hands of the Commissioner
of Agriculture. No money, however, was
provided to pay the freights on specimens
to Atlanta, and efforts have been made to
-.-cure free transportation as far as possi

the Commissioner the following roads
have offered totraiisjmrt artices of exhibit
unconditionally free: Central Railroad
and branches. Georgia Railroad,

collect the charges when the articles are
delivered, but w ill hold the account sul>-

Tlie Southern Mutual Insurance Case.
The cast* of the Southern Mutual In
'iirance Company, to which reference has
been made in the News, claimed the at
| tention of tlie Clarke County Court last
week. It was finally ascertained that
| Judge Hutchins was disqualified from
presiding in the case, as tlie Georgia
Railroad, of whichhe is a director,became
involved as a party to the case. The trial
was therefore continued to the next term
of court. It is said that Judge Roney, of
the Augusta Circuit, is the only Judge in
the State who is not disqualified as a
policy holder In the Southern Mutual.

FREIGHT ON COTTON BV RIVER
STEAMERS.
A Letter from One who Ktiows Whereof
He Writes.
Editor Morning Notes: In your issue
of May 22d, and also of the 30th, are com
munications in regard to Savannah’s cot
ton receipts. The writer charges the
Central Railroad with buying off the two
or three boats on the river; says that they
take no cotton, and uses language calcu
lated to prejudice the minds of the lousi
ness men of Savannah against the
Central Railroad as monopolizing the
carrying of cotton between Augusta
and Savannah. In your issue of May 30
th<* statement is correct that $1 25 per
bale is charged on cotton by rail from
Augusta to Savannah, as also the stale
merit that the boats can profitably trans
port cotton at 50 cents per bale. But this
does not prove that the saving to the ship
per would be 75 cents per bale. The
facts are that the railroad charges $1 25
per hale on cotton to transport it from
Augusta aud deliver in Savannah at press
or steamer for New York, Philadelphia.
Boston, etc., and covers by insurance.
Now. bv boat take 50 cents freight. 25
cents insurance, two wharfages, 5 cents
each, making 10 cents, two drayages of 15
cents each, equal 30 cents —total $1 15.
Some may say. why pay drayage in Sa
vannah? Why not deliver cotton at the
whart of presses?” etc. JThe answer is,
that during the cottou season there are
almost always vessels lying at the wharf
of the press, and the river steamers can
not discharge across them. Again, if '
cotton is shipped by rail from Augusta j
through to Northern jiorts, it goes
on through bills of lading, and much i
more than the 10 cents difference |
is saved as if shipped to Savannah J
on local bills. Again, if shipped on !
through bills of lading the shipper can j
draw with bills of lading attached at ;
ouce. but uot so if shipped by river steam- :
ers. The assertion that the “Central
Railroad has bought off the two or three
steamers.*-’ is incorrect, and is calculated
to do injustice to and create a x>rejudice
against this road, which has been, and
still is, the most imjiortant factor in the
building up ol Savannah. Now that the
facts in the case of the river and railroad
transjiortation of cotton from Augusta
have been stated, let us examine the fig
ures ( official i of the cotton going out of
Augusta from September 1, 1381, to Jan
uary 31, ISS2:
Bales.
To Savannah 36,8U1
To Charleston 37.304
To Port Royal ...... 11.890
By Piedmont Air Line Railroad 10,395
By Atlantic Coast Line Railroad 743
Total 102.933
Of the total amount Savannah received
over one-third. Now for distances, harbor,
etc.: From Augusta to Charleston, 137
miles; Augusta to Savannah, 123 miles;
Augusta to Port Royal, 112 miles. The
difference is too small to be taken account
of. In regard to harlnir, I will refrain
from saying anything, as the facts are too
well known. In regard to facilities for
transporting by the different routes they
are ample. Let us consider the situation,
Savannah being no nearer to the great
Xorliern cities than these other
points, will any reflecting man assert
that these each 'have not an equal right
to their portion of the trade of Augusta?
Whatever efforts are made by one to ol*-
tain more than its share, w ill be met by
the other, and it may as well be conceded
that, so far as freights are concerned, they
will be equalized. Spectator.
The Stephens Monumental Association.
General Henry R. Jackson has lieen
chosen one of the Vice Presidents of the
Monumental Association organized to
lerpetuate a memorial of the late Gover
nor Stephens at Crawfordville. Among
the other officers of the association are
Hon. George T. Barnes, of Augvsta.
President; and M. Z. Andrews, Esq., of
Crawfordville; Hon. Seaborn Reese, of
Sparta: Hon. Thomas Hardeman,
of Macon; Hon. Joseph E.
Brown, of Atlanta: Gen. Phil. Cook, of
Americus; Hon. R. J. Moses, of Colum
bus; Col. Charles Willingham, of Car
tersville; Dr. James Hamilton, of Athens;
Hon. 11. G. Turner, of Brooks county,
Vice Presidents. The plan, it is reported,
that will probably be acted upon looks to
the raising of money for the purchase of
“Liberty Hall,” the late residence of Mr.
Stephen’s, at Crawfordville, with the
library: to found a high school uion the
grounds, with a competent professor, who
.should dwell upon the place and be regent
of tbe property, and to remove the re
mains of Mr. Stephens to this property,
for interment there, erecting a suitable
monument upon the grave.
It is thought that $15,000 will accom
plish this work, to raise which tlie ap
pointment is recommended of a Vice
President from each Congressional dis
trict, as above indicated, who shall re
commend a series of entertainments in
the different counties during the fall term
of the Superior Courts.
Mobile ami Savannah Military Exchange
Compliments.
On receiving the announcement of the
award of the prize of the recent Nashville
drill to the Mobile Rifles, C aptain Branch,
of the Cadets, telegraphed the congratula
tions of his command, and Saturday re
! ceivetl the following complimentary re
ply:
Moisilk, Ala., May 29, 1883.
Captain 11. M. Branch, Savannah Cadets:
Dear Captain—Your dispatch warfhs
the hearts Rifles to you and your
command. TVe gave an honest drill,
shirked nothing, and of course feel re
joiced at our unexpected success. No
men worked harder or made more sacri
fices to do honor to our people.
11 thank you, in the name of my com
pany, for the expression “Reward is
just.’’ Such a sentiment is honorable to
your generous nature. Yours truly,
P. Williams, Jr., Capfain.

He Made a Will.
A certain gentleman said to his son the
other day: “I have made my will to-day.’’
“.Ah! you were, no doubt, liberal to me.”
“Yes, my son, I’ve come down handsome
ly; I willed you the whole State of Geor
gia to make a living in, with the privilege
of going elsewhere, if you can do better.”
The Famous will be pleased to have you
examine their Clothing, and if we don’t
please vou in prtce and style of Clothing,
you, like the son. have the privilege of
going Elsewhere; but you can’t do any
where as well as at the Famous New York
Clothing House, 140 Congress street. — Adv.
Good Clothing.
Men want good Clothing, and the repu r
tation of the house should be taken in con
sideration when deciding where to buy.
We don’t quote alluring prices, but we
agreed to refund the money if you bring
back our goods uninjured after compar
ing elsewhere, or consulting your friends.
We wouldn't do that it we were not posi
tive as to the quality and price of our
goods. Go to “The Famous” New York
Clothing House, 140 Congress street.
Store for Rent.
Owing to my removal to 159 Broughton
street, on the June next, tbe store
I now occupy will lie to rent aud the fix
tures for sale. In order to remove as few
goods as possible I have put the knife
right into prices on all iroixls contained in
iny present store. Now, if you want good
clothing, such as you don’t a]waps find
readv made, the material, trimming and
make of which is recommended by every
merchant tailor in the city, you have now
a chance to buy them at almost your oirn
price. They must and trill be sold. Hats,
shirts, underwear, neckwear, hoisery,
umbrellas, etc., at equally low prices.
This is no advertising dodge, but fact.
Come early, I expect a rush of custom,
and vu may lose an opportunity to buy
good Goods at such prices as are not often
offered. Simon Mitchell,

A Military Festival for Savannah.
Editor Morning Xeics: Appreciating
the fact that your columns are always
open to the advancement of our city and
her interests, and with this in view I
wield my pen in her lehalf. It was my
pleasure to be present at the recent com
petitive military drill at Nashville,
which proved such a grand suc
cess, and I thought that if Nash
ville, with as little military .ardor
as is there displayed ( they having only
one uniformed company), could push
such an undertaking to suc
cess, how much easier it
could l>e done here in our beautiful
city, where we have so inanv and such
tinelv equipped companies. The cost of
Nashville’s display did not exceed $lO,OOO
in prizes and all. and the lowest estimate
placed upon the crowd at their fair
grounds last Friday was 20,000 people.
The admission to the grounds was hfty
cents each, making the receipts that day
$lO,OOO. Then there was the fair ground
privilege receipts, which netted $2,500.
To insure the success of their enterprise
the directors solicited from the merchants
and citizens generally a contribution in
the shape of their notes for whatever
amounts they felt able and willing to
give, and I learn from reliable sources
that the management will have more than
enough to pay all demands without draw
ing on their reserve for a dollar. Now,
why couldn't we get up an affair of this
kind? lam quite sure we could make a
success of it without costing the citizens
anything outside of decorations, which
will amply repay our merchants by the
trade thev will secure.
This affair at Nashville was under con
templation for about a year, and if we
were to have ours say next May would give
ample time to get up a grand affair, some
thing that not only our citizens, but the
whole Btate of Georgia, would be proud of.
This is, of course, only giveu for what it is
worth, but we have many able and influ
ential men who would, we have no doubt,
vvillinglv lend their aid arid insure suc
cess. Hoping that these suggestions may
meet with favor, and requesting our fel
low-citizens to give us their views on the
question, I remain. 11. D.

tering tlie trust fund; of devising, modi
fying and maturing a scheme to carry
into effect, in good faith, the objects of the

the academy, through its books and collec
tions, and, if when practicable, through
instructions in art and science, an institu
