•THE FORESTRY CONGRESS.
This body has beeij in session in
Atlanta for several day '8. It is an
teliigent and scientific body’,
their discussions are highly
ing and instructive.
Among the most noted
who have addressed their
is Gen. Greeley, of tho United
weather bureau, who has been
era) days in Atlanta.
Gen. Groeley is a scientific man
and is at tho head of tho
bureau of the government. lie is
West Point graduate, and has
in tho service of tho government
many years. He is of the
that the destruction of the
at the head waters of our main
Streams is tho cause of the unu ""ai
floods we have at certain season
the year.
Ho urges that it is quite feasible
to ascertain theso facts, by scientific
investigation, and that the necessary
remedies lo prevent their occurrence
are easily at bam’.
If tho general’s position is correct,
>ind we presume that it is, the disas
trious floods and storms to which we
have heretofore been fu* jocu, may in
the future be avoided, and tho coun¬
try relieved from all such terrible
disasters.
Wo shall be giud vo sec Gon. Groe
ley’s suggestions carried into effect,
and the country* relieved from p
storm and flood disasters. Let us
hope that the forestry congress will
take such steps as are necessary to
secure these much desired results a!
once.
A good two horse wagon costs
from $50 to $75. On bad roads they
break down and wear out in five or
six years, With good roads they*
would last doub[e that time. Here,
then, i» an expense ip ono itepa of
filly $5 a year which the farmers
lose by* reason of bad roads. Then
the injury to stock is another.—
Would it not be wiso economy to
levy a tax for road purposes and
have the roads placed in good con¬
dition and k pt at it ? What Jo th"
farmers say ?
The imperial German government
is encouraging lire agitation that lias
been raised for the ahoiliiion
of the slave trade in Africa. It is
proposed to form a treaty between
Germany and England, by which
tjrey shall act together for this pur¬
pose. It seems to us that tiie French
government as well as the English,
should bo a party to this treaty.—
It Cannot be supposed Ural Germany
wotj!l refuse to co-operate with
France, or France with Ge nnany,n
a gre work of thisnatutv, in the
iritc- s, of virilization. Tl.e 3 i n -
ish and Italian governments -h >ui
also bo punios to the treaty and join
in securing its enforcement. With
such a con binatioti of Euro; >uaii
powers agan st tho slave trade in
Africa, that horrible business wunl-i
be eiioed iu a few years.

President-pled and His Policy.
Augusta Chronicle.
lo an ari : cle in the Indianapolis
r posed to be inspired, the
policy of the President
is dis. tssed at length.
Assuming thm it i» the south that
tl seu* hern question, the «,«>.
is made that it has been the
fad d' southern gentlemen
•o Wi\.n li emselves up in a cloak of
their own grandeur, and to I
gloomy and peculiar through all t he
years of republican administration,
declining to consider themselves part
of a homogeneous pec le, but for¬
ever prating about too south as
though that were a distinctive por¬
tion ol the United States needing a
d; active and peculiar treatment.
Ali this is deprecated. The Jour
na! declares that General Ilanison
will not have one policy for the
north and another for the south, or
for the east, or for the west, lie
will have a national policy as bread
as tho nation and as patriotic as the
constitution, fho article adds : We
feel certain that thero are men
strong enough and ablo enough in
the south, devoted to tho future ol
their own states and homes, to break
down tho insane prejudice that has
so long kep> th m out of ihoir shaie
of tho good li:.ngs of tho nation.
Toe south is part and parcel of
tho Union and as devoted to the
Union as tho west or north, Vfe
arc working our rich resources. Tho
political policy in tho management
of the affairs of tho nation that, will
accelerate, not retard, ibis work will
bo sustained here. Tho Work wo
have in Lund wo boliovo must bo
done by r while men; white men
must direct, supervise and execute
it. The progress we have made
during lh last decade has been a
j directed national surprise. it, under While laws men made have by
white men and enforced by white
men. A policy it .1 Wi permit ol

begun, wit iu.ee or ctii ua.r
