The Cherokee Georgian. P. H. BREWSTER, ) -p HI - fnrq J. J. A. SHARP, J-Editois. OcL32LtOTZL 7 Oct-, WEDNESDAY, SEPTEMBER 8, 1875. Navigation of the Etowah. There is a scheme on foot to op-n up the Coosa river and its tributaries, so that they may be navigated. For this purpose, we believe a convention met in Rome last week. What was done in that direction we have not yet learned, but we hope that steps were taken which will result in the success of the enterprise. Water transpor tation is always cheap, and, if we could have our groceries shipped to Canton from New Orleans, via Rome, it would help our section wonderfully. But is the navigation of the Etowah river practicable? Those who profess to know, say it is. In conver sation with a friend who lives on the Coo sawatee, the other day, we were informed that the “Mary Carter,” a little steamboat on that river, carries without difficulty a thousand to fifteen hundred bushels of grain in eighteen-inch water, in a channel eighteen or twenty feet wide. It seems to us that a channel of that depth and width might be opened in the Etowah with very little difficulty. Wouldn’t it be nice to have a little steamboat laden with passen gers and freight, to come from Rome to Canton every week! The State Archives at Milledgeville. Some time ago, Governor Smith appoint ed Colonel Peterson Thweatt, a f rrncr faithful and efficient Comptroller-general, to look after and take charge of the archives at the old capitol. We think the appoint ment was eminently proper and important, and that it could not have been intrusted to a better man. But why was it not done sooner ? It appears from a long letter from Colonel Thweatt in the Albany A’etei, that many valuable books and documents be longing to the State have been promiscu ously scattered over the floors of the old capitol for years, and that many of them have become worthless from abuse and neglect, while others have been abstracted for the purpose of swindling the State and her people. It is evident that somebody is guilty of gross neglect in this matter; and the pub ic servants whose duty it was to take care of this property of the State, and who have negle. ted that duty until this late hour, justly deserve to be censured by the people and held responsible for the loss which the State has sustained by their carelessness and neglect. Colonel Thweatt says in his letter : “It makes the heart sick to see the great loss the State has sustained in her earlier Gov ernors not having had at le.ist four or five copies each of the pamphlet acts and jour nals of the earlier years of Georgia, and other valuable reports, bound and pre served.” We do not propose to discuss this mat ter, but feel it to be our duty as a public journalist, and as a true G o-giaa. to speak out and condemn every palpable and inex cusable omission of duty by our public officers, as well as to express at all times, without “fear, favor, or affection,” our dis approval of every act, whether public or private, by which the State is wronged, and the burdens c f the people are increased by extravagant and unnecessary taxation. The War of Rac< s. We occasionally hear the fear expressed by some of a war ol races; others, again, ridicule such an idea, and contend that Mich a thing is entirely improbable. But the fact is, disgtvse it as we may, that hos tility already exists between the white and colored races in the South, and this spirit of antagonism manifests itself on every oc casion when an exciting cause is presented. It is unnecessary to cite instances in proof of our position, for (he history of the past ten years is full of them ; and yet some people are unwilling to believe or admit that there is any danger of a serious con flict between the races. It must be clear to < v.ry reflecting mind that the whites and blacks can never dwell together in the s me country, in peace and contentment, upon terms of political or any other sort of tqua’ity, for enmity exists between them. Concealed, it may be; but still it exists The colored man is restless and dissatisfied in the iufe tor position a* signed him in society. Having tasted of liberty and power, he has become intoxi cated and longs for more. With impa tience he watches for opportunities to secure what he has been taught to believe is unjustly denied him, and. is anxious to assert his rights, lie regards the white man of the South as his natural < uemv, simply because he refus.s m admit his high pretensions. ITis seeming humility is a matter of mere policy an I necessity. He stoops th d he may conquer, lie seeks an education that be may turn his rival down, and gain the as.\nd uiey over him. His ambition is vaulting, and nothing short of a dominion »iu - h a- he enjoys in South Car olina will ever satisfy him, in Geo-gia oi anywhere else. He cm not endure the pressure th it is on the ‘*!>ottom rail.” It he can not roost on the top limb, he will sullenly refuse to roost on the same tree widi the white man. These are some of | the characteristics of i||t> eoloivd man, ami they are nm the r suit of the vanity of ig norance. as some contend, for they are in tensified by moral and mental cultivation. The instigators and leaders of ail insurrec tionary moxcue-..ts among t’ • colored! people arc .da;.»s* invariably < Atein/x, who 1 have some h g.icot intc'iij i«ee. Buell arc > m.v of oe.r can lid view's niton f-iiMfj.xi, ;uhlui think they are pl .m and uni ■«! If k ... The uigv.aii nts we offer tai. >• ohm me not intended loin-, elalmr .t. , . . .i... Lu: n.ui ’y >g- gtfctivv. We aie the friend of the honest colored man, and we think a good deal of forbear ance should be exercised toward the race. At the same time we insist that we should view the situation from a stand-point unin fluenced and unprejudiced by present and momentary infer,st. We think the people of the South should abandon the idea that the negro is an essential clement in our society, and that immediate steps should be taken for his colonization. 11- rein lies our only hope of peace, safety and pros perity. If we could not live peaceably with the red man, neither can we with the black. Oil and water can not be mixed. The politician may need the negro as a stepping stone into office and power, but the masses of the white people can do bet ter without him. A few who possess large landed monopoli- s may think him indis pensable to raise coi ton; but it would be better for that class, and the country too, if they would sell the lands to thrifty and en terprising immigrants, and invest the pro ceeds in manufactories. The uncertain and unsettled condition of affairs in the South is an effectual bar to immigration. No matter how great the inducements w: offer to people of other sections to come and help us to possess and develop the country, they are unwilling to enter the strife and to come in contact with the colored race. They do not wish to come as mere adven turers and carpet-baggers, and therefore they prefer not to come at all; but let the negro be removed and assigned a country to himself, and a new’ and a brighter era will dawn upon the South at once. New industries will spring into life ; our mount ains and valleys will teem with industrious millions, whose varied productions will swell the commerce of the world, and bring untold millions of material wealth to our shores Which, then, is better—strife and uncertainty, or peace and assurance? noverty and dependence, or wealth and in dependence ? There is no way to dodge the issue; it stares us in the face, and “he that runs may read”; and there is no use in closing our eyes to facts, and in hugging die delu sion that we can longer use the negro to promote our ease our comfort, or pros perity. He has served his day, and is now’ alienated from us, and the breach between us is widening every day. His hand is against us, and the sooner he is thrown en tirely upon his own resources, and told to “go in peace,” the better it will be for us. As to how, when, and where he shall go, we leave it for wiser heads to determine ; but we say, Let him go! The world is wide; and how can the two races “walk together” here, “except they be agreed”? There can be no permanent agreement un der the circumstances ; therefore, let him go. Let him go where the white man will not interfere with his “pursuit of happi ness” in his own peculiar way. Let him go where the presence of the pale face will not be a continual source of annoyance and irritation. Let him go and be happy, and peace will bo left behind him. The Railroad Meeting at Murphy. We have glorious news from the mount ains. We learn from the party returning from the meeting at Murphy, that there was an immense concourse of true-hearted mountaineers, all anxious and determined to have a railroad, if possible. We con gratulate our fellow-citizens that the line was changed from Ducktown to Murphy, there to connect with the Knoxville and Charleston railroad, and with the North Carolina extension leading to Asheville. We gather from the rcpoits of these gen tlemen that the meeting was, in every sense of the word, a success. The attendance was very large, and of the very best citi zens of the good old North Staj”. General Vance of Asheville, member of Congress ; Colonel Robertson, Speaker of the North Carolina House of R presentatives; Dr. Lovb of Franklin; and Professor Smith, a distinguished geologist, were among the speakers. Colonel McAdoo represented the Knox ville railroad, and he assured the meeting that bis road was ready, able, and anxious to connect wi’h ours <>r any other road leading into Gemgia or South Carolina, and would put their road under contract as soon as there was a reasonable probability of our meeting them. The. road from Asheville has already been graded into Hay wood county. The barbecue, as reported, was the very | best ; all that was good, in the greatest abundance and well cooked, and everything done in perfect order. There was not one i person in the town or at the meeting ex cited with whisky, and not one drop seen. And, best of all, they subscribed lilxTally. j They will organize under their charter, to connect with the Marietta and North Geor gia road, and it will require $30,000 to or ganize. That amount they will easily raise. A committee of ton was appointed to attend our meeting on the 15’h. Another important feature was the Indians from the Eastern band of Cherokees, st 11 remaining in Noith Carolina. A delegation from this ban ! will also attend our meeting, and will attract more attention than even Guv. rnor ; Smith, or Colonel Hardeman, or General j Colquitt. We will welcome them to Cher okee county, the former home of their fathers. Judge Hammett showed us rare and beautiful specimens of mineral and marble ■ of the finest qu.il.tv anil of every shade. ' We only r gret our inability to attend the meeting at Murphy. Our friends from Marietta are enthusiastic in praise ot the country and people. i ii'z ns of Cherokee, we must at » and Im; prepared hr the loth.

Fellow Grangers: 1 am happy to meet you on this occasion, and hope you are happy to meet inc I (Applause.) 'While I am not a farmer myself, not having time from other pursuits to devote to agricul ture, yet I am in perfect sympathy with the toiling masses. (Tremendous applause.) My grandfather was a farmer, and many of my relatives are entirely dependent upon the productions of the earth lor commis sary supplies. (Loud cheers.) I rejoice in the Grange movement, and shall hail with inexpressible emotions of joy the day when the farmer shall be allowed to take a posi tion with oilier’men of honor, refinement and true gentility. (Enthusiastic applause.) Fellow farmers I 1 have often thought, of late, that my father committed a great mis take in educating me for the higher walks of life; for the natural bent of my inclina tion is toward the farmer and his honest calling. (Rounds of applause.) I love to feel the corns in the farmer’s honest band, and to see plenty of the same article in his crib. (Cheers and laughter) I love to hear the bleating of his mules, the lowing of his horses, and the loud neighing of his sheep and cattle, as they browse in happy con tentment among his growing grain, and nip the fragrant, flowers that sip thc-morn ingdew and drink the zephyrs at eventide in the orchard, Ihe vineyard and meadow. (Long-continued cheers) These things re mind me of the happy days of my child hood, and carry me back on fancy’s golden wings to my grandfather’s home in the valley, where I used to spend a right smart of my time when my father and mother were cross at home, and I yearned for hu man sympathy. (Bursts of applause.) I delight to behold the purple potatoes as they hang in luscious and tempting clus ters on the vine, and to pluck the mellow’ turnip from the stately tree. (Cries of Hear! hear I) I love the waving rye and peach, and delight to drink in copious draughts the exhilarating fluids which they contain,, and also the juice of the apple! (Cries of Good! good !) Fellow-grangers ! I feel the grandeur of my exalted theme, and the picture that looms up before me is one of transcendant beauty, splendor, and glory I I see in the coming future the grand realization of the farmer’s hopes which have beer, long de terred. I see monopolies, principalities and powers humbling themselves at the farmer’s feet. I see him directing and controlling the thundering locomotive with his magic wand, and directing the forked lightning as it conveys, from time to time, the glad news of the advance in corn, bacon, flour, and potatoes. I sec him in the presidential chair, anil everywhere. I see him crush ing his enemies, cleaving to his friends, and placing in office those only who delight in agricultural pursuits, and who will defend ' his rights while grass runs and whisky grows! (Uproarous and long-continued applause.) i , Georgia Editors, as a general thing, know’ about as little about the present crop pi">spcct as a hotr does about Sunday, if we are to judge by the way they boast of the “flattering prospects for a splendid harvest. ’ Georgia like nine tenths of the.other col ton growing States, wi I do well if she makes half a crop this year, and all the “blowing" that the newspapi rs of the country can do will not effect the result at harvest time. The ’Ranters of this and every other section of the State that we have visited recently will be satisfied with half a crop, although the Department of Agriculture at Washing ton and some of the “leading dailies of Georgia say that the|prospects for an abun dant harvest were never better.”—Quitman Reporter. Senator Norwood of Georgia, in his re cent address at Emory college, made .«oni< interesting points.
