Thk Germans in China are learning

The stalwarts have started new
roles, while they still harp on the
old strings. Among the original
designs is the one mamifneturing ex

of the South. For this purpose they
have imported editors who were
sutlers in the Union army, anil pur
chase worthless and obscure papers.

upon the credulity of the most igno.
rant blacks, induce them to leave
their homes for n far offbleak coun

papers are industriously reporting
they are fleeing from political perse
cution. The story of those who
left, if not tutored, will tell that the
real cause of this emigration has been
the rumored expectation of getting
lands and mules from tlid Govern
inent, and having a good lazy time.
These Radical papers always forget
to mention that Georgia negroes pay-
tax on nearly six millions of real es
tate and are having farms of their
own. Anything but the (ruth they
will utter, so that it produces the de
sired effect on tho Northern mind,

and partisan bitterness.
The New York Tribvne, Jay Gould’s
organ, out does even the Chicago
fntcr-Occan in its false representa
tions. In a late editorial it speaks of
the poverty of the South, of the info
rior houses, dilapidated fences, of the
poor clothes worn by planters, etc.
It further says:
No important now manufacturiug
enterprises have boon undertaken in
recent years. The old cotton mills at
Augusta, Granitoville and Columbus are
doing well, lint tlinro seems to lie no
disposition to establish others. Com
merce at tlio seaports is not increasing,
and at somo places lias fallen oil'.

False in one thing, false in all, and
this paragraph is crowded witli the
very grossest of falsehoods.
Take Columbus for instance. Our
mills now operate65,000spindles and
2.000 looms, and annually consume
sonic 18,000 bales of cotton, mid ninii-
ufacturc over one hundred varieties
of plain and colored cotton and wool
en goods. Not one building was
spared the Federal torch in 1805.
All have been built since 1860 with
Southern money, were planned by
Southern men, and are still success
fully controlled by them. Columbus
alone since 1807 has erected a factory
every year, and more are contem
plated. Resides, iron works have
been rebuilt, a bagging factory, a
plow manufactory and other indus
tries established. All this has been
effected sinco the late revolution.
The Federuls put the torch to every
industry here in 1805. The U. S.
commander said it was by order of
the government, and his troops sent
up in smoke fifteen millions of
property, including 00,000 hales of
cotton. Since that time recuperation
lias been steady and certain. A cele
brated English manufacturer lias
said mill No. :i, of the Kaglc ami
1’lionix Company, is us complete as
any in the world. Augusta has con
structed factories sinco the war, and,
like Columbus, is contemplating
more. Atlanta Is a monument of
Southern enterprise. From ashes in
1805, it has grown to he a city of
45.000 inhabitants—Southern, to the
Mobile nmy have declined,
hut Kavanuah and Norfolk have
made up for it. About Galveston
the Tribune plays with the truth as
in Rh other assertions. Charleston
lias just been freed from the rule of
the mob—the Tribune supporters
with bayonets, forced on her, and
who rolihcd and plundered her with
out limit.
Articles like those in the Tribune
and kindred sheets are dictated by
malice and bate, because the South
lias throwi^otl the detested Rcpubli
can thieves that would have crushed
tlio life blood out of tlie people and
robbed them of every cent, whoplun

Hon. Henry Persons telegraph
ed yesterday to a gentleman in our
city that Commissioner of Internal
Revenue, Raum, had not decided
tlie Georgia four per cent, bonds un
constitutional. We have since seen
a telegram to the Atlanta Constitu
tion, published elsewhere, in which
tlie correspondent- states that tlie
Commissioner told him they were
neither unconstitutional nor bills of
credit, nor subject to the ten per
rent, tax; and they are as they ap
peared on their face, genuine bonds.
To show ills confidence in Comp
troller Knox's judgment, a gentle
man in Columbus, as soon as he
heard of his questionin^tliese securi
ties, sent u check to Treasurer Ren-
froe for $5,000 more of Knox’s “un
constitutional bonds,” or “hills of
credit.” Ho was confident if Knox
decided them “unconstitutional,”
they certainly were good.
One thing is sure, that $200,000
of these bonds, all of the first issue,
have been sold and tlie treasury of
the State lias the money.
One institution we wot of paid out
at one time $.500 of these bonds in
wages, informing the receivers
they could get greenbacks, gold or
silver for them, if they preferred.
Hardly twenty-live dollars have beer
offered for exchange. Tho people
linvo more confidence in Georgia’s
credit than Johnnie Knox’s “fur
nished” telegram.
Our special telegram, just received,
contains a corrispomlenco between
our immediate Representative, Hon.
Henry Persons, and Commissioner
Itauni, in which tlie latter states that
hanks can pay these bonds on check
to any one that chooses to receive
them without incuriug any liability
under tlio internal revenue law,
which does not regard them us
"money.” Of course the hanks then
can receive them on deposit as green
backs, gold or silver, and pay them
out. Ho tlie bonds are simply sus
tain cd^in every point.
House Committes.—Speaker Ran
dall yesterday announced the com
mittees. Georgians are well cared
for. Mr. Blount is placed as second
on tlie appropriations committee, and
made chairman of expenditures of
tlio Department of Justice. Dr. Fel
ton Is on the committee of ways and
means—tlie leading one of tlie House.
This is a recognition of liim as a
prominent Democrat. Mr. Stephens
retains his chairmanship of coinage
and weight, and is also on rules. Mr.
Persons is on agriculture and naval
affairs; Mr. Hammond, on judiciary;
Mr. Nieliolls, on foreign affairs ; Mr.
Smith, on military and justice ; Mr.
Cook, chairman of public buildings
and grounds, and Mr. Speer, on elec

Speaker Randall did not give Mr.

waa decorated on Hunday afternoon.
An interesting feature of the ceremo-

ticipated in by the military organiza

witnessed by some ten thousand peo
ple, was tlie reception of delegations
from tlie Grand Army of the Repub

diers and Sailors, hearing floral of
ferings, which they deposited on tlie
monument. After depositing on the
turf of the mound a handsome star
and basket of flowers, Capt. Y’ork A.

tlie Republic, addressed the chair
man of the committee of arrange
ments as follows:
Mr. President and Ladies and
Gentlemen : We, a remnant of tlie
survivors of those who wore the blue,
present ourselves to-day to pay a tri
bute to tlie memory of those who
wore tlie gray—a tribute to devotion
and bravery ; a tribute to the lives
and deaths of some who bore tlie
proudest military title on earth—
"American soldiers." Enemies in
war, friends in peace, comrades in
that silent bed beneath the sod, on
whose surface to-day we place the
beautiful emblems of God’s good will
to man.

Friends of the A rmies of the North:
You wlio were once our foes; who
for four long years stood in opposing
ranks; who exchanged shot and shell
on many a field of carnage; who
mourn your own dead, which lay
upon tlio same battle-field as ours,

over the graves of our fallen tieroes.

About two thousand negroes front
Mississippi and Uotiisiana are now in
tliis Slate and others aro arriviug by
nearly every boat. They are quar
tered in Leavenworth, Wyandotte
and Topeka. A few of them have
scattered out to other parts of the
State, seeking work as farm hands or
at anything else they are capable of
doing, hut tlie main army is still en
camped in the three towns mention
ed. They arc willing to work. A
few of tlie men find work at odd jobs
about town, and some of the women
as house servants. They have no
plans for the future. They started
witli tlie intention of coming to
Kansas, and, having arrived liere,
are completely at sea.
The first detachment, consisting of
about one hundred, arrived here
about four weeks-ago, and were
tuarted in an old frame building
'ortnerly occupied as a hotel, and for
the first ten days they were objects
of great curiosity anil were visited by
thousands of people. Those compos
ing tlie first lot had the appeurance
of well-to-do people. The most of
them were comfortably clad and were
bright and intelligent looking. They
brought a littlo money with them
varying from $5 to $50 apiece, having
enough to supply their immediate
wants, lint none of them had enough
with which to establish themselves
on farms.
There is an abundance of land to

people cannot get to it without some
expense, und when there they must
have money with which to build
houses or prepare shelters of some
kind, and even if they have teams
enough to do their own ploughing
they have to he able to supply them
selves witli food for about sixteen
montfis, for the crop planted the first
spring on tho newly-broken prairie
soil rarely amounts to anything.
Among ttiu colored people who have
arrived, those with the most means
have not enough to live on till they
could raise a crop, while the great
majority of them are absolutely des
titute. They come by steamboat
loads, and are put ashore upon the
wharves in great herds.
Much of the time since they began
to arrive tlie weather lias been very
severe, and there lias been much suf-
lering among them, ns most of them
are very thinly clad. What is to be

Vicksburg Herald.}
Recently President Hayes appoint-
ed James Hill, a well-known colored
man, Collector of Internal Revenue
for this State. The holder of this
important position is required to give
a liond in the sum of $220,000. When
Collector Hill was appointed a well-
known carpet-bagger sneered, “Yes,
the nigger has got the place, hut he
can’t give the bond, and much good
it will do -him, that lie worked so
hard to get it.” The carpet-liflgger,
who hates above all things to see a
“nigger” have an otlice was entirely
-mistaken. Mr. Hill returned to Mis
sissippi, where he has a record for
trust-worthiness, and made this large
bond with comparative ease. Gen
tlemen, without regard to party,
freely put their names to it, proving
that party and color do not make any
great difference with tlie large major
ity of Conservative people in this
State. We are glad to tie able to state
that there is a rapid growtli of good
feeling between the races here. Tlie
Conservatives in tlie Stnte nre deter
mined that the colored people shall
have representation in official posi
tions In proportion to the intelligent
and capable among them, and any
attempt to defeat this result by unfair
means will certainly ho prevented.
Party bitterness is rapidly passing
away, and if the carpet-baggers do
not again revive it the colored people
will soon be convinced that the inter
ests of all residents of Mississippi are
identical, and that the great majority
of the people are earnestly in favor
of their being treated with the utmost
kindness anil fairness.
