A DisraTon from Constantinople to the
New York Herald reporta an awful and
very destructive earthquake in the Tur
kish province of Broussa, Asia Minor.
It occurred oarly in May. 8o far as heard
from, about six hundred houses were
destroyed, one hundred and sixty-one
lives lost, and one hundred and eigbty-
ooven persons were injured. The town
of Broussa, in the province of the same
name, is at the foot of Mount Olympus,
57 miles from Constantinople.
Tun Havannah News hits the nail
squarely on the head when it says, speak
ing of Oen. Grant’s letter in rosponso to
the Pennsylvania resolution: “If we had
over entertained any doubts that Grant
really aspired to a third term, his recent
pronunoiemento would removo all snob
doubts, and we-are now equally assured
that after all the prefessed opposition to
his renoraination, he will find no formida
ble obstacle in the way of ita accomplish
ment, and that it will be generally ac-
quieaoed in by the majority of his party.”
Taa subscription list of the Atlanta
Ifetes has been transferred to the Consti
tution of that city and the proprietors of
the Constitution will fill out all contracts
for subscription to the Item. Mr. Alex.
8t. Clair-Abrams announces his perma
nent retirement from journalism, with dis
gust for the oonduot of some who should
have stood by him in his troubles. In
his retirement the press of Georgia loses
one of ita best writers. We wish him
better suoceas in any new buslnoaa in
which he may engage.
Tna meeting, at Augusta on Monday,
of the representatives of the city of Borne
and the holders of tho Borne bonds, was
attended by bondholders owning Borne
1150,000 or $200,000 worth. After an
interchange of views in the morning, tho
Imndbolders took up the quoHlion by
thomaelros, and mado a proposition that
the city of Borne should pay all coupons
now due, and exohango new bonds for the
old ones at tho rato of 75 conts in tho
dollar. The delegates of Borne took the
proposition home for the consideration of
tbo authorities of that city.
Tub New York World thinks that “if
an average yield is obtained from the
oropa planted throughout the Booth this
spring, it ahould place the people ef that
aeotion in a asunder flnanoial condition
than they have enjoyed since reconstruc
tion began."
That depends upon the kind of oropa
that reach or exceod an avorage. Four
millions of balos of ootton, at 12 cents
per pound, without a sufficiency of grain,
will hardly improve the condition of tho
Houth to the extent stated. But throe
millions of bales, at 15 cents, with the
work that would have made one , million
more dovetod to grain and other food
crops, trill make the boat times we have
had at the South “since Beooustruotiou
began." Wo ardently hope that the crops
have been so pitched and will be so culti.
voted as to limit the ootton crop to three
millions and inorease the food oropa ac
cordingly. But we have our misgivings.
Gen. Gbant threw himself on his dig
nity in replying to tbo Pennsylvania anti-
third term resolution. lie had not
notioed the newspaper criticisms about
Giosarism, bnt when a convention having
the power to nominate candidates spoke
on tho subject, ho would condescend to
notice its utterance. Gen. Grant has
evidently forgotten that a llepublican
State Convention in South Carolina spoke
out on this subject last year. But its
resolution was very different from
that of Pennsylvania—it nominated
Gon. Grant for re-election, and he
blushed and was silent. This, of itself,
fully justified the oourso of tho press.
The ltepublioan State Convention of Ken
tucky, too, passed a resolution on the
subject of a third term ebont two weeks
before the Pennsylvania Convention mot,
Bnt Gen. Grant paid no attention to
Kontuoky. Tho reason obviously was,
because Gen. Grant wished to avoid any
notioe of the question as long as possible.
And now that ha has spoken, the country
is in aa much doubt as ever whether be
will next yoar deem it his “imperative
duty” to accept a nomination if tendered.
•mb raise iicuvaiatm.
There is no doubt, from all that we eea
tar, that our people are contracting
smaller debts this year than they have for
a number of years past. Of course we
speak of planters and of people generally
—there are exceptions. No matter whether
this is the result of oboioe or inability to
obtain meeb credit—and we are of the
opinion that both causes are operating to
tbs samo cud—tho effect will be the same.
It will lay the foundation for more inde
pendence next year, and for a yearly pro
graming improvement if persisted in. It
will benefit the merchant and factor as
well as the planter, for it will restore
the commercial business of the
oountry to a better and safer basis, and
reduoe the expense of producing the great
staple that brings money to the South.
That staple, though so important to the
whole world, oannot regain its prosperity
and its potter while it is vitually raised
under mortgage—while the planter owes
tho Southern merchant, the Southern
merohant owes the Northern, and the
moneyed speculator is all the timo “bull
ing" or “bearing” the market to make
his thousands of dollars by the Bweat of
other poople’a brows. The staple must
be emancipated from tbis'thraldom be
fore it becomes a commercial “king"
again, and the greater indopondonee of
it producers must preoede, its emanci
pation.
We did not fully “take in" our prostra
ted condition at tho close of the war.
We had the oommoroial facilities of ad
vanced civilization without tho moans of
fully enjoying them. Wo wore in a con
dition very muoh resembling that of first
settlers in a new country—without money
or tho necessaries of life, and dependent
on hard work and close economy for an
improvement of the ^situation. Usd we
not, in that condition, run too much in
debt to make a big beginning and live
beyond our means, tho Houth would have
been better off to-day. We ought to
have observed moro olosely the habits of
pioneers—of men who
“Disdaining little delicacies, seised
Tbs plow, and greatly Independent lived."
Any reform which ombracea a falling
back upon the methods of economy snd
independence that ought to havo been
adopted at first, is a movement in the
right direction; and as such we regard
the curtailment of credits noticeable this
year. It indicates that poople arc living
harder—perhaps working harder—but
that is the preparatory condition of solid
independence and steady progress. Wilh
all its hardships, it is enooaraging.

OFFICIAL BXPObT OF TBX ACTION OF TUB
SxALa, Ala., June 1, 1875.
The Convention aaaembled in tho oourt
room at 12 u., pursuant to a coll of the
County Executive Committee.
Olyssos Lewis, Esq., Chairman of the
Democratic and Conservative Executive
Committee, called the Convention to or
der. He explained tho objects of this
County Convention as being the nomina
tion of one delegate from Bussell Sena
torial District, and one from Bnssell
county, to the State Convention, to meet
in Montgomery in September next.
Ho then suggested Major W. C. Daw
son, of Glennville, as temporary Chair
man of the Convention. The suggestion
was accepted, and Major Dawson was
elected as such temporary Chairman,
E. Herndon Glenn was elected temporary
Sooretary, and S. V. Laney, Esq., Assist
ant Secretary.
Tbo Convention then accepted the tem
porary organisation for permanent organ
ization, by retaining Major Dawson as
President, and E. Herndon Glenn Secre
tary, and H. V. Lanoy Assistant Secretary.
Tho Convention then olectod Capt. A.
S. Glenn, of Ilatchechubboee, and Dr.
H. M. Hunter, of Jeruigan, as Vice Pres
idents of the Convention.
Mr. Frank A. Ncsbit, of Oawicbeo,
was nominated as dolegato from the Bus-
soli County Henatorial District, and Col.
8. 8. Bcott, of Uohoo, as dolegute from
Bussell county.
The existing Exocntive Committee was
continued as said Committee, with the ad
dition of Capt. A. S. Glenn, of llatche-
chubbeo, and Mr. W. T. Cowles, of Jor-
nigan.
The Convention then adjourned nine
die.
Good feeling and harmony prevailed,
and not a great many ltichmonds wore in
the field, llussoll thus flings out her
standard, and calls upon all Conservatives
in her boundaries, without regard to race,
color or provions condition, to rally to the
rescue.
W. C. Dawson, President.
E IIebndon Glenn, Secretary.
The State bought the Macon A Bruns
wick ltailrood on Tuesday, bidding one
million dollars for it. There is no ap
parent likelihood that it oan sell it to ad
vantage, and it may thoreforo have to
oontinuo to operate it indefinitely. Can
it not, by prudent management, be mado
to pay expenses and a handsomo interest
on ono million of dollars? If so, the
purohase may yet prove an ad
vantageous one to the State. By filling
up the gap botween Atlanta and Macon,
Georgia would own a continuous lino of
railroad aoroas tho State from its north
west to its southeast boundary. This can
not well be done at present, but the time
may soon oome when tbo financial condi
tion of the State will justify it. Snch a
line would he a power in restraining mon
opolise. We hope that the State will
hold on to its purchase for a time.
Thos. P. Janes, State Commissioner of
Agriculture, has addressed a circular to
persons who have consented to report to
bis department on crops, &o. He asks
for monthly reports on oorn, wheat, olo-
ver, ootton, grasses and forago crops, su
gar cane, sorghum, ground peas, melons
and rioe, stating the acreage compared
with last year, timo of planting oompared
with las yoar, amount of fertilizers com
pared wilh last year, avorage condition of
the oropa, Ac. In making comparisons tbo
number 100 ahould represent tbe average
or the amount of last year’s planting, con
dition, Ac. The amount of rain fall is nl
so dosired, with tho temperature and di
rection of winds; also the number of
sheep and other stook oompared with last
yoar.
Special dispatches to the Montgomery
Advertiser report the following Demo
oratio nominations for dolegatos to the
Alabama Constitutional Convention: In
Maoon oonnty, Gen. O. A. Battlo and
Dr. B. F. Johnson ; in Elmoro county,
Judge I. W. Suttle.
In Macon, B. J. Thornton was nomina
ted tor Senator, vioe Glass, resigned.
Did Paul Boxnton got sea sick 1
his armor was proof agaiust this horror
of lend lubbers who have to make a trip
across tho ocean, it may prove of some
practical bonefit as a means of travel,
besides the aid which it promises to be
in preserving life when vessels are
wrecked.
The Coat of it Trip to Mexico.
Car. New Orleans Picayune. ]
Tho following statement of expenses
represents exactly what I paid myself, ami
ean be retted on as correct. Negotiations
are now pending which will havo the
effoct of reducing very materially tho cost
of traveling to and fro. For tho present,
however, my figures prevail:
Excursion ticket to Vera Crus and return..# so
First olaic fare from Vora Uru* to Mexico
and return
Estimate of expenie In Vera Crux—hotel,
bemraire, oto., both ways
liaiicaKe la Moxioe both ways
#145
Tho time from here to Vera Cruz by
steamship is five days, and from Vera
Cruz to Mexioo by railroad eighteen
hours, making eleven days and a half for
tbe round trip.
With $5 thrown in for meals and other
incidentals along the railway, I think
$150 may be assumed as the outside coat
of the trip from here to the City of Moxi-
co and return. There, one can livo and
lodge excellently well—better than in
Haratoga or the springs for twice the
monoy—$75 per month.
My calculation is that with $400 a per
son can take the tour to Mexico, spend
two months in the most beautiful and
delightful land on earth, Bee a piotur-
esqno and strange country, an almost un
known people, and return better satisfied
with his investment than he ever was
with any investment of a similar kind
before. If traveling repays the traveler
at all or under any circumstances, it will
repay him seven-fold here. If antiquity,
mystery, romance, possess a charm, that
charm will be found in the highest ex
pression of its power wherever you may
tom your etepa in Mexico.
