City Printer—Official Paper
WKGKST CITY CIRCULATION
AUOUBTA. OA.
SATURDAY MORNING.. June 16, ISM
Th« Co-Operative Syitem.
The (trike* which here prevailed to
extentirely throughout the North for
the last few jeer* here reunited io
the inauguration of e large number of
associatioM, among mecheaice, in
which eech workaieu i* e joint partner,
and after receiriug hi* regular wage*,
enjoy* in the end, an equal share of the
profit* derived from the busioeta.
We confes* that we have beeu incred
uloua of the *ucresa of thi* system.
Such a division of responsibility, and
auch a mutual sens* of indepeadence
would teem to detract from the discip
line necessary to be observed, and aU°
afford constant room for imposition.
But the fairest way to judge of a sys
tem it by its results, and tried by this
rule, the cooperative system affords
some striking instances of success.
There are several of these associations
in Cincinnati. A western paper gives
some of the results es one of them,
called the Cabinet Maker’s Union,
which has been in existence since 1852.
It consisted of fifty two members. Bach
one contributed fifty dollars at the
start No dividends were paid on
the shares until they amounted to four
hundred dollars each. In fifteen years
they have divided fifty six thousand
dollars among the members, each man
receiving besides for the whole time
regular weekly wages. It is said that
every shareholder now owns the house
he lives in, and the sales amounting in
1865 to one hundred and twenty six
thousand dollars. There is another
association there, known as the Queen
City Furnishing Company, begun three
years ago, in 1864. It commenced with
fourteen stockholders, who paid in five
hundred dollars each. These shares,
according to a report published in the
papers, are now worth three thousand
five hundred dollars each. All the
while the members have received their
weekly wages. We might give other
practical illustrations of the working of
this cooperative institution, but we can
not at this time protract our remarks.
We do not advise the mechanics of
the South to form snch associations, at
present, for we are not sufficiently
familiar with their present prospects, or
the working of these associations to do
so. But we direct attention to the
subject as one that is attracting much
notice among the intelligent me
chanics of the North and West, and is
worthy of investigstion. A number of
the most successful journals in the
country have been, and still are, man
aged on this system. The recent change
in the labor system of the South, will,
it is hoped, induce large accessions to
our population. With this will come
a revival of our mechanical interests,
and a field for testing the system under
consideration.
We see no reason why it should not
apply with especial advantage to farm
ing. Opportunities exist all over the
(South, for all who choose to engage in
tilling the soil. Lands are cheaper
than an ywhere else in the world, con
sidering the contingent advantages of
n settled and healthy country, cizilized
society, outlets to market, and general
prospects for profitable culture. Let
the joung men of the country unite,
mul lea se or purchase farms, and go to
work on the cooperative system. Why
not? It will pay better than loafing,
or clerking, and nine times out of ten
better then merchandising. Try it.
The Son them Express Company
ro».eooorjr Warrant Case.
The Atlanta Intelligencer of yesterday
says the decision of Judge Smith iu this
case was adverse to the Southern Ex
press Company, and in favor of Mr-
Champe, at whose instauce the posses,
sorv warrant was issued. The Express
Company, believing the decision of
Judge Smith to be not in accordance
with law, are determined to appeal to
the Superior Court rather than yield the
point, though it was stated to as that
there was a prospect of the matter being
adjusted without farther litigation, Mr.
Champe having received an order from
the New York firm which authorizes the
Express Company to refund the money
and receive in return the package
marked C. O. D.
Wc recognize in this circumstance a
very strong proof of the careful manner
in which the Southern Express Company
guard the interests of their patrons. Mr.
Dunning, as agent of the Company,
knew nothing of the merits of the
controversy (so to speak) between Mr.
Champe and the New York firm from
whom the goods were ordered. Mr.
Champe was doubtless aggrieved in
having other goods than those he
ordered sent to him. He is a reliable
gentleman, and not apt to misieprcsent
matters, but that was none of the
Express Company’s business. They
had been intrusted with a package, and
were bound to return it intact to the
owners, or the money in lieu thereof
This lliey proposed to do by resisting
the possessory warrant, and declaring
their purpose to have the matter dis
cussed in the highest Court in Georgia
rather than the interests of their patron
should suffer by a want of fidelity on
their part. Long live the Southern
Express Company I They are faithful
public servants.
'('lie Mncon Telegraph says that Mr.
Ells picked ripe peaches from hi* tree*
on (lie lOlb, and Mr. Simri. Rose, from
his on the 11th. Thi* i* four days

EVENTS OF THE DAT.
Tax ox Gtosa Sat** Uxcoxstito
tiokal. — Tb« Supreme Court of Louisi
ana has decided that the tax on groat
gales, imposed by the Legislature of
that State it unconstitutional. This 1*
an important decision, in which the
eutire court concur.
Loxotvirr. —The Mobile Register
tells of a patriarch at Point Clear who
ia one hundred and eight years old.
Whereupon the Pensacola Observer
shows up an old negro, known to a
number of th* oldest citisens, some of
whom are over a century old, who all
agree that old Jacob is at least one hun
dred and twenty year* of age, and ia
erect and muscular.
Thk Richmond Times and th* Dis
patch.—We have announced the pur
chase of the Times by the proprietors of
the Dispatch. The price paid is said
to be $3,200 for the good will, the ma
terial, valued at $20,000 to $30,000,
bring still undisposed of. The THmes
was a vigorous journal, and took a fine
start while th« Dispatch was suspended
at the close of- the war, bnt could not
stand the strong competition of that
old and popular journal. The union
makes the Dispatch stronger than ever,
and its enterprising proprietors have our
best wishes.
A Brat* Win —The wife of Prince
Salm-Salia, an American lady nte
Agnes Le Clerg—closely related to
President Johnson, made her way alone
to San Luis Potosi to intercede with Pres
ident Juares for her husband’s life, as
well as that of the Emperor Maximilian.
This lady has sped so far in her brave
mission that, on her arrival at the City
of Mexico from San Luis, herself, the
Emperor, and Prince Salm Salm had a
long interview with General Escobedo,
and I have reason to believe that terms
have been arranged by which the lives
of most of the foreigners will be spared.
Maximilian.— ln connection with the
late Emperor of Mexico, the Boston
Traveler reminds us of the interesting
historical fact that Maximilian is the
most respectable member of one of the
most ancient of the reigning houses of
the old world, a house that wag at the
head of the Holy Uoman Empire, long
before Mexico had been heard of among
Christians, and which ruled over Mex
ico for almost two centuries, from the
time that Cortez conquered it for Charles
1. (V. of Germany), in 1521, to the
death of Charles 11., iD 1700. We may
add that we believe this circumstance
gave Maximilian himself the idea that
it would help to make him acceptable as
a ruler for the Mexicans.
Immig*ation.—A Company has lately
been organized in Florida—the “South
ern Land and Immigration Company”
—for the purpose of facilitating the dis
posal of lands in the Southern States,
introducing European immigrants, etc.
David 8. Walker, Governor of Florida,
is President of the Company, and it
embraces several large capitalists. A
meeting of the citizens of Darlington
and the surrounding Districts will be
held at Florence on Saturday, the 22d
instant, at 11 A. M., lor the purpose of
considering the best means of encour
aging and promoting foreign immigra
tion. While our sister States are taking
practical steps to secure immigration,
we regret that nothing is beiug done in
Georgia.
A Novel Dubl. —A duel was fought
near New Orleaus on the Bth, between
Frank Ames and James Coffey. The
terms agreed on were that the combat
ants be placed fifteen paces apart,
deliver one shot, and advance on each
other at discretion, continuing to fire
until the pistols were emptied, or one of
them hit. Ames fired but missed his
man ; Coffey’s pistol snapped, but failed
to go off. “Advance 1” was then com
manded, and immediately both men
rnshed at each other, dodging and
firing, until within arm’s reach, when
at the fourth discharge from the pistol
of Ames, Coffey received a ball, and,
infuriated at the ineffectiveness of his
weapon, (he had succeeded in firing but
twice), he hurled it at his antagonist,
striking him a vicious blow on the fore
head.
Universal Monetary System.—A
Convention of Representatives from
sixteen governments of Europe has
been called to meet this week in Paris
to devise a universal monetary system,
in the interest of the whole world. The
economy and convenience of such a
change in commerce can be understood
from reflecting how mnch time (which
is money) is now wasted in reckonings
of exchange. It will do away with that
perpetual interchange of values which
forms so promineut a part of the daily
duty of hundreds ot thousands of entry
clerks and book keepers throughout the
world. This is a supplementary step
to that change of weights and measures
to the decimal system which is pro
gressing the world over, and which the
last Congress established for our coun
try, to go into operatiou after a fixed
future date.
Assassinations. —Tho recent attempt
to ssiasainate the Czar of Russia, is the
second that has been made to take the
lilo of that sovereign, the preceding one
having been made last year by an im
poverished Russian nobleman who be
longed to tbe ultra revolutionary party
of Russia. The passion for assassina
tions is unfortunately increasing. Nearly
all the great raonarchs of Europe have
escaped similar dangers. Thus, attempts
were made against Louis Napoleon by
Pianori (in April, 1855), and by Oraiiei
(January, 1858). A few years ago a
student tried to take the life of King
William, of Prussia, and last year that
of Count Bismarck was endangered.
Two different attempts were made
against Victoria. Last year it was re
ported that a similar attempt had been
made against the Emperor of Austria,
at Prague-, but an investigation ol the
affair proved that the person charged
with it was innocent.
A Grand Paorant.— The crowning
of the Emperor and Empress of Aus
tria was the most magnificent spectacle
w tnessed in Europe for centuries. The
Coronation took place at Ofen, across
the river Danube, and the concluding
rites in Pesth. The city was crowded
with visitors from all parts of the world*
and was splendidly decorated. The
Ambassadors of all nations having
diplomatic relations with Austria, except
the United States, were present on the
occasion. Eight hundred Hungarian
uud Austrian nobles, sixty Peeresses, a
hundred diplomatists and thousands of
strangers witnessed the coronation.
The costumes displayed were gorgeous.
The Emperor was anointed in the
ancient robes, crown, mantle and shoes
of St. Stephen, the first Christian King
of Hungary. The Empress was
anointed under the right armpit. The
special mass sung by the Imperial choir
from Vienna, was composed by Lislz.
After the coronation, the King knighted
several Hungarians, and then rode in
person to Pesth, where he took the
oath, in which he promised to recon
quer the ancient limits of Huugary.

SARSAPARILLA.
IN VENEREAL COMPLAINTS, AS IN
J ether Diseases, as soon as Ibis Sarsa
parilla begins to act on the Liver and Bow
els, it begins to work out of the system the
poisonous venereal matter. The oounte
nanoe of the patient will then appear bet
ter, end be will gradually improve in health
and spirits till cured.
If Balaam of Copnibn may be found
necessary to act on the kidneys or mucus
membrane of the nrinary passage, if it is
taken with, or mixed with this Sarsaparilla,
it will be more effectual, more pleasant to
take, and much less oi it will be necessary.
In the Sontbern States a tea made of
pitch pioe shavings or splinters, or pills
made of pare gam or pitch pine wood are
often used instead of copaiba, and generally
have better effect, especially in affections of
the lungs and in many cases of female
complaints.
Its beneficial effect, in the worst forms of
disease, is one of the best evidences of tho
great medical virtnes of this Sarsaparilla.
