Bruce, the colored Senator from Mississip

It may not be generally known that dogs
never bark in their wild state, a whine, howl,

Like the language of the parrot, the barking

Pope Pius IX. is dead. His spirit, like
those of Bonaparte and Cromwell, took its

an eminently good man.

All along the costs of Virginia and North
Carolina, severe and fatal storms have been

to the amount of $50,000 was destroyed in
the city.
Wendell Philips recently said. “I consider

In Japan, a prisoner is not punished for at

believing that, every one has a natural right

practice of all the leading nations that boast
of their splendid civilization ?
“Our Beu” has stiffened his backbone, and
proudly tells the men who made him Sena

they ought to be.
Tobacco Seed Free.
Hon. Thomas P. Janes, Commissioner of
Agriculture, has recently distributed to the
farmers of Georgia hundreds of papers of
Aromatic Cuba and Orinoco tobacco seed.
He desires us to say that lie still bason hand
a few papers of each variety, which he wish
es to send by mail to those who make spe
cial requests for the same. We advise far
mers .who desire to raise their own chewing
and smoking tobacco, and wish the best seed,
to drop a card to the Commissioner to that
effect. The Aromatic Cuba was imported
by Dr. Janes, directly from Havana, and is
the celebrated variety of which fine cigars
and smoking tobacco are made. The Orinoco
is a heavy, thick-leaved tobacco, for chewing
purposes, the best now cultivated in Virginia
and North Carolina. The seed beds should
be prepared at once, according to the direc
tions on the packets.- Planter <s• Gi'angc.
THE EDUCATIONAL CONVENTION.
This Convention uiet in the; If all of the
House of Representative#, in the city of
Atlanta, on the 6th Inst., for the purpose of
securing national aid to thk cause of educa
tion in the South. The movement is foun
ded injustice, and meets* with the hearty
approval of a large majority of our best
educators in all parts of the Union. We
consider it unfair for the whites of the South
ern States to bear the whole burden of edu
eating the negro race. Being the pet of the
North, that section should be willing to bear
at least a portion of the expense of educating
those in whose Ixjhalf it has. already spent
untold millions of our owhblood and treas
ure. And; as recent developments of a
marked character, go to show its willingness
to help us educate these wards of the nation,
it becomes us to give full countenance-to the
measures proposed by “The.llliteracy Bill;”
:as. it is called, now before Congress.
This hUF provides tilat-. aH the money
arising from the -sale of public lands and of
patent fees in the United States shall, for a
period of ten years, be distributed among the
several States upon the basis of illiterac};
and afterwards upon the basis of school
population. This would give the Southern
States the lion’s share for the above period
of time, and a fair showing after its expira
tion’, ‘
When we reflect that the measure has more
powerful friends in the North than in the
South, and that the fund will lie distributed
in accordance with State laws, and not of the
National Government, we have additional
reasons for supporting “The Illiteracy Bill”
which, should it become a law; will give Geor
gia an annual income of about SBO.OOO. —
This, in ten years, will amount to the round
sum of SBOO,OOO, which.being supplemented
i>y our own State School Fund, will place a
good business education within the reach of
all our school population.
It is generally known that a Convention
for similar purposes was held some years
ago. Morrill, of Maine, introduced a bill,
endorsing the Convention, but the public
domain had been so deeply cut into, at that
time, that the measure failed. Recently,
however, the matter has been brought for
ward more prominently than before, and in
accordance with resolutions published in
our columns a few weeks ago, the Conven*
tion met as above stated, and organized b}-
electing for
President—Hon. G. J. Oku, Ga.
Vice-Presidents—Rev. Dr. Pendleton. West
Va.; Rev. Dr. Sears, Va.; Rev. I. T. Tieh

R. O. Shannon, Mo.; lion. R. M. Lusher.

Haygood, Ga.; Gen. John Eaton, D. C.
Secretaries—Profs. B, Mallon, T. E. Smith,
Sam. W. Small, of Ga., and lion. John. W.
Paulett, of Tenn.
When the roll was called, it was found
that Georgia was represented by seventy-five
delegates, among whom w r ere such men as G.
J. Orr, S. S. Comm’r, Dr. Tucker, Chancellor
of the State University. Gov.- A. IT. Colquitt,
Dr. Means, lion. W. P. Price, and other pro
minent men of the State. Other States were
represented by such men as seen* in the above
list of officers ; and who, having learned their
character, and examined the cause of their
mission among us, will refuse to say. that the
elevation of the present and coming genera
tions is about to pass into the. hands of those
who will look well to their future prosperity.
The summing up of the labors of the Con
vention may be found in the following pream
ble and resolutions which we take from the
Constitution of the 7tli instant:—
Whereas, certain measures are now pending
before the Congress of the United States,
which propose to raise, from the sales of the
public land and other sources, a fund, to be
distributed among the several States in the
aid of popular education ; and,
Whereas, these measures provide that this
distribution shall be made for a term of years
upon the basts of illiteracy, and afterwards
upon tiie basis of s’chool population ; and,
Whet •eas. the m'easuj’es referred to, do not
claim for the national government the right
to control education in the states; but pro
vide, simply, for turning over the fund raised,
to the constituted authorities of the several
states to be applied under state laws; there
fore.
Be it resolved, that t-his convention does
most heartily approve the adoption of some
measure of national legislation which shall
embody the principles set forth in the forego
ing preamble.
Resolved, that the. educational wants of the
southern .statesare immediate and pressing,
and we would suggest to congress the consid
eration of the question as to whether'it might
not he best to distribute and apply the entire
corpus of whatever funds that body from time
to time, may provide to the immediate relief
of these want 9.
Resolved, that, as the educational laws of
the several states represented by us. make
no discrimination in favor of or against the
children of any class of citizens; and as
those charged with the administration of these
laws have endeavored, in the past, to have
them carried into effect impartially; so da
we pledge 04irselves*tQiUS£ our influence, to
secure even-handed justice to all classes of
citizens in the application of any educational
funds provided by the national government.
Resolved, that a committee consisting of
the president of this convention, and fifteen
members and fifteen alternates, one member
and one alternate to be selected from each
of the southern states, be appointed by the
president of this convention to memorialize
congress upon the subject set" forth in the
foregoing preamble and resolution.
Resolved, that we respectfully ask the im
mediate attention of the senators and repre
sentatives of the southern states in congress
to the objects referred to in the foregoing re
solutions, and appeal to them to hasten favor
able action upon the same.
After these resolutions were adopted, oth
ers were passed, strongly endorsing the Na
tional Bureau of Education. This action
was followed by a speech from Gen. Eaton, i
Superintendent of the bureau, in which he
gave a clear accoiint'oT its workings in this
and other countries. The showing was a
fair one, and the institution is‘doing- more
for the country than is'generally known.
Prof. Mallon, Superintendent of the Pub
lic schools of Atlanta, gave a cordial' inVita
| tion to the members of the convention to
; visit the public schools of the city:-.The
invitation was unanimously accepted,-and to
those who have never witnessed the high
degree of their perfection upon the education
al scale, a description of these, Or of ethers
similar to them, would seem a wild flight of
a distempered fane}*. They are*slfi honor to
the city, and a blessing to those
their benefits. • ; - ' “ .
Dr. George Little, our able State -Geolo
gist, also extended an invitation to the con
vention to visit the Geological and Mineral-'
ogical Bureau, situated just below the Post
Office. This is one of the most interesting
features belonging to the State Government,
and deserves its strong support. Tlie recent
declaration of Dr. Little, that Georgia is
richer than California in mineral wealth, has
been doubted by some; but a visit to this
department as it actually is, will dispel all
doubts, and excite wonder .afid surprise in
the minds of all visitors when they see that
we are poor in the rajdst of a profusion O .of
riches which haye. for; ages remained inert
just beneath our our easy-grasp.
Visitors will fiud Dr. Little and Prof. M.'T.

S “The Twig Trimmers,” and able speeches
were made by Hon. W. P. Price, of Ga., Hon.
\V. W. Duncan, of S. C., Dr. Sears, of Va.,
| and Dr. Mays, of Tenn.
On Thursday, the committee whose duty
lit is to prepare a memorial in accordance
: with the foregoing resolutions, and, in person,
j present it to Congress, was announced by the
President, and was unanimously approved.
Georgia will be represented by S. G. Hi liver,
D. D. f of Forsyth, with Prof. Mallon, alter
nate. In all its features the Convention was
a success, and was, perhaps, the ablest rep
resentative body that ever assembled in
| Georgia.
To the gratification of all, a Thursday’s
i telegram from Washington announced that
the Committee on Education had agreed to
report a bill to divide the public lands
; among the States for educational purposes.
Our Senators and Representatives as Seen
In Washington.
Capt. Newman, of Atlanta, has lately re
turned from a two weeks’ trip to Washing
ton. Among other things that the Captain
talks up in elegant style, the following, from
the Constitution , will be of interest to our
readers:
“ It is remarkable to see the attention that
is naid to our Senators in Congress. I was
sitting, the other night, between Mr. Hill and
Gen. Gordon, in the Senate. Everybody
was tired out. and many were actually dozing
while Morrill was delivering a speech. When
he sat down, Mr. Ilill arose and proposed to
make a few remarks. In an instant, every
body was alert, wide awake, and anxious to
hear what lie had to sav. Although bespoke
only a few moments, he held their closest
attention until he sat down. ("ion. Gordon
arose and spoke for awhile. He held the
whole Senate, just as Mr. Hill had done. I
noticed it as a remarkable evidence of the
attention that is given to onr representatives
in the Senate when they arise to speak.—
Georgia’s senatorial representatives'are as
good as those of any State in the North, or
in the Union.”.
OUR REPRESENTATIVES IN TIIE HOUSE.
“ How does our House delegation stand ?”
“They rank among the very bed;. I doubt
if any State has a more capable representa
tion. or one that is more universally respect
ed. They are working men—all of them.
They have large acquaintance, good commit
tee connections, and each one is the neu
oleus of a good bit of influence. t
“ It is needless to say which is tire strong
est. Mr. Stephens, of course, has much more
reputation than any of the others. I)r. Fel
ton has a commanding presence, undoubted
integrity and judgment, and an ability that
always makes itself felt. lie is a very pow
erful man. Col. Blount has probably more
influence on the floor than any member; his
high position on the appropriation committee
giving him a splendid purchase. lie adds to
this adventitious strength by a vigorous and
clear head, and a perfectly tireless energy.
General Cook is probably the most popular
man in Congress. lie has a host of friends.
His genial good nature, his irrepressible bon
hommie. makes him just as popular irr Con
gress as he is in his own district, and his
sound common sense and fine congressional
training, makes -4ns personal magnetism
effective. Col. Candler, our immediate re
presentative, is a hard worker, and a man of
very considerable influence. lie “wears
! well.” He gains in power all the-time. His
opinions are very much respected, and his
influence always felt.
“Col. Hartridge is one of the most delight
ful gentlemen I ever met. ' His address is
captivating and he is a real leader. When
lie takes the floor he commands the closest
attention, and his speeches always have
weight. lie is one of the first men in the
House. Col. Smith pushes Gen. Cook very
closely on the question of popularity, and is
a growing man. * -■
“The second district has a staunch ;at:
able representative. Colonel 801 l seems to
have marked influence and quite a knot of
followers. ■
“ Colonel Harris as a member of the com-,
raittee on Ways and.Means, of course takes
a conspicuous part in the proceedings, and
very justly so. from what I could see.
“Georgia should, I think, be proud of her
delegation.”
The Governor’s Guards.— Thiw fine
company, under command of Capt. John Mil
ledge. were out on the streets day before yes
terday. The}’ numbered about thirty men,
rank and file, and their movements were very
easy and graceful. They are in fine trim,
and are an honor to our local military. Cap
tain Milledge is enthusiastic in his interest
in his company, and its success is due large
ly to his efforts.— Constitution.

. The School-Book Reform.
A greater curse has never been entailed
.upon the country than the game of legerde
main which lias been played oflf upon the
people, especially those of the South, in - re
gard to the adoption and use of worthless
school-books. This is a matter of the'first
importance to us, and we should carefully
guard ourselves against it. Even in the
North it has gone to such lengths that a bill
has been-introduced into both houses of the
Legislature of New York, to put a stop to
this nefarious business in that State.
We have not room to give the details of
the bill; but it proposes to put the selectkyft
'"Sr
oftext-books into the hands of those who would
have no other motives than those of purity
in leading them to make their choice, and
whose qualifications are beyond dispute.
For 3-ears, the-sale of the books which are
to shape the characters and mould the tnor
als of our children, has been the job-work of
authors and publishers who should now pass
behind the curtains and be seen no more.—
But few know how far the workings of their
systems have gone against 11s; but many
parents have felt the low down search that
has been made into their pockets for the
purchase of books that are calculated to
poison the minds of their children, and then
leave them in a shoreless mud-hole from which
there is no wav of escape. Of course we
must have strict uniformity of text-books in
ottr schools before we can ever expect to
succeed ; and one of the best plans to secure
it, will be to have strict legislation upon the
subject at home.
To those wanting first-class school-books
at reduced rates, we can, in all confidence,
refer them to Capt. R. E. Park, of Macon,
and Prof. Martin V. Calvin, of Augusta.—
They represent first-class houses, and being
first-class men themselves, the public need
have no fear of imposition coming through
their hands. These gentlemen know nothing
of this notice—it is a voluntary- offering to
real worth. Mr. Park will be remembered by
many of our citizens as a model student o r
Martin Institute, and Mr. Calvin is favorablv
known as ex-superintendent of the Public
Schools of Augusta.
The Horrors of Ealing Diseased Pork.
The following dispatch from Youngtown,
Ohio, to tho Cincinnati Enquirer, serves to
show the awful consequences that sometimes
follow the eating of our favorite hog. There
is more truth than poetry in this matter, and
all should be cautious in regard to the kind
of meat they buy :
‘•Six weeks ago. Fred, Peak. S '., a laborer
at the Girard Furnace, killed a hog. and
from the head and other rough parts, made
what is called ‘ worst.' Of this, the entire
family, numbering five, ate heartily in its
raw state. A few days afterward, Mrs. Fred.
Benk was taken sick and died on New Year’s
day. the family physician pronouncing tl <
disease typhus fever and rheumatism. Their
two children. Eva and Frederick. Jr., aged
respectively five and seven years, were taken
sick shortly before their mother died, the
symptoms being tire same. Another physi
cian was called in. and he pronounced the
disease spotted fever. Wednesday of last
week, l)r. Lauterman. of this city, a graduate
of the University of Austria at Vienna, was
called. He immediately declared the disease
was trichinae, other physicians ridiculing his
diagnosis. Sunday Eva died and was buried.
Yesterday, Dr. Lauterman insisted on re
examining the pork in use by the family, and
with the naked eye white bodies were discov
ered in the muscles, while with the aid of a
miseroscope, ti e thread-like worm, woun 1 up
spirally, was found in countless numbers.
To-day a small portion of the muscle was
taken from an arm of the dead girl, bv I)r.
Lauterman. and. from calculations made by
him, one cubic inchof muscle contains 100,000
trichnte spirals.
The boy Fred, was visited to-day by an
Enquirer correspondent, who found him
lying in bed on his back, with his arms and
his legs wonderfully s#ollen and drawn out
of shape by contraction of tho muscles. On
touching the muscles, his pain became indes
cribable. His physician says death is almost
inevitable. Mrs. Benk, sister of Fred. Benk,
Sr., who lives with him, was taken sick to
day, Dr. LauLerman'says that within twenty
four hours, she will be prostrated with the
terrible disease. Ernest Benk, of this city,
attended the funeral of Frederick on New
Year’s day and partook of the meat in use in
the Benk family, and yesterday was prostrat
ed with triehme. Fork is at a discount here/’
The Parent of* Inwuiania,
The parent of insomnia or wa.kefulness is in nine
cases out often a dyspeptic stomach. Good di
gestion gives sound sleep, indigestion interferes
with it. The brain and stomach sympathize.
.One of the prominent symptoms of a weak state
of the gastric organs is a disturbance of the great
nerve entrepot, the brain. Invigorate the stom
ach, and you restore equilibrium to the great cen
tre. A most reliable medicine for the purpose is
Hostetter’s Stomach Bitters, which is far prefera
ble to mineral sedatives and powerful narcotics
which, though they may for a time exert a sopo
rific upon the brain, soon cease to act, and invaria
bly injure the tone of the stomach. The Bitters,
on the contrary, restore activity to the operations
of that all important organ and their beneficent
influence reflected in sound sleep and a tranquil
state of the nervous .system. A wholesome im
petus is likewise given to the action of the liver
and bowels by its use.
