Georgia’s New State House.
Mr. Editor :—According to Atlanta’s pro*
position, she is bound to give to the State a
suitable site, and to build upon that site a
j Capitol as good as the old State House in
Milledgeville. The old State House is said
to be worth $65,000. Now, I put the qties
! tion to every citizen of Georgia : Shall the
great State of Georgia, the Empire State of
the South, be content with a Capitol worth
: only $65,000 ? Ido not doubt the willing
ness, or the ability of the city of Atlanta to
make good her promise ; but I ask, will such
a house as she has promised to build be suf
ficient to content the desires and satisfy the
ambition of the noble State of Georgia? I
think not! 1 think not!! What, then, shall
we do in the premises? As an humble citi*
zen of native State, I will give m3' plan
for the consideration of my fellow-citizens.
Let us have a State House worth $5,000,000.
I think such a building can be put up b}' the
State at a cost not exceeding $2,000,000, and
perhaps for much less than the latter figure.
How? I will answer. Let two or three hun
dred convicts, under long sentences, be put
to quarrying granite at Stone Mountain, and
let them be kept at ttie work, under proper
overseers and guards, until they shall have
prepared hewn-stonc sufficient to complete
the State House, and to build a hewn-stone
wall, five feet high, around the entire State
Home lot. Then let a master builder and a
few expert workmen be employed with the
convicts to raise and finish off the noble
structure. There need be no hnste in the
business. The old Opera House will stand
eight or ten years longer. “ Festinalente" in
this matter will be a good motto. Solomon
was engaged seven years in building his mag
nificent temple in Jerusalem. Let us build
a Capitol in ten years. If it should cost us
the whole of two millions of dollars, those
extra two millions raised In' taxation in ten
years would add only two hundred thousand
dollars to the sum of our taxes each year.
Such a building, once completed, would last
for all time. It should, of course, be ianie
enough to accommodate all departments of
the State government. As there is no need
of haste, it might be well to make the con
victs first build a penitentiary, or at least cell
buildings, for their own confinement, at Stone
Mountain.
I hope my fellow-citizens, and especially
our next legislators, will give this plan a full
and serious consideration.
Respectfully yours,
Groves 11. Cartledge.

The Greatest Wheat Crop Yet.
The greatest wheat crop ever raised in the
United States is now heading out all over the
West. The winter wheat crop in acreage an i
yield will be fully’ a third larger than ever
before raised in the United States. The
standing crop is universally good. 1 have
looked at the growing wheat fields within the
last ten daj’s, from Cairo to Chicago, and
from Pittsburgh to Des Moines, and I have
not seen a bad piece of wheat. In each sec
tion I visit everybody is wondering if it is
possible for the wheat to lie as good in other
sections as it is in theirs. When I tell the
farmers that the wheat is as good in one
place as another, they all say :
“Then wheat will goto sixty cents a bush
el after harvest.”.
Wheat harvesting will commence in about
six days in Texas. The heads, lam told by
travelling Texans, are now yellow and al
most ready for the reaper.
In five weeks (by June 24). wheat in Kansas
and Southern Illinois and Indiana will he
harvested, and by July Ist the reapers Will
have finished in Illinois, lowa, Wisconsin,
and Michigan.
The only danger now is that the too rank
growth of the stock will lodge the wheat and
cause it to decay before harvesting. It is
though! that no insect can trouble it. Noth
ing but hurricanes and great storms of rain
and hail can hurt the growing crop.
The crop is twenty-five days earlier than
usual. It is heading out as far north as the
line of Fort Wayne, Rock Island, and Des
Moines.
Spring wheat also looks well, but it is yet
too early to speculate about it. At least a
half more spring wheat than usual is sown.
A Chicago wheat man said to me to-day.
“Wheat will drop to 60 cents in Minnesota
this fall, 85 cents in New York, and I believe
|we will be able to lay it down in Liverpool at
j close to $1 a bushel.
If American wheat can be laid down in
l Liverpool at $1 a bushel, it will ruin the
! English farmer, who expects to sell wheat
! made on land worth S2OO per acre. Five
j dollar wheat land in America, cultivated in
large tracts, will ruin S2OO wheat land in
England and Germany, cultivated in small
tracts.— Eli Peeking, in New York Sun.
OBITIARY.
Mrs. Eliza Ann Rogers departed this life
May ISth. 1878, at the age of 60 years and seven
months, of typhoid fever, after an illness of nearly
six weeks. She was a true woman ; discharging
her duties with all the promptness, affection and
faithfulness that the most enlightened Christianity
demands. Rarely have we seen dignity, grace,
sell-possession, tenderness ami love more beauti
fully embodied female form. She was a
consistent member of the Baptist church for 39
years. She leaves a famil)' of eight children,
and numerous relatives and friends to mourn at
her loss. Ilow hard to realize that the kind, court
eous, intelligent and affectionate mother and friend
is no more on earth. Though sad. yet how con
soling to hear her speak so calmly, as Death began
to approach and almost silenced her tongue, in a
whisper, as the angels hovered around her. she
'exclaimed. “I am ready and willing to die.” Wc
believe she rose triumphantly to the Christian
heaven and the Christian home. Her spirit sets
as the morning star, which goes not down behind
the darkened West, nor hides obscure amid the
temptest of the sky. hut melts away into the light
of heaven. She was mild in manner, gentle in
disposition and spiritually minded : she lived to
bless the world. Her children cherish her virtues
and speak her name with loving reverence. Many
hearts are sad at missing her, but she has passed
from the sadness of earth and is at rest. Let us
who remain walk as she did.
Death has stopped her heavy breathing,
Gently closed her eye-lids down ;
M cep not. friends, who gather around her,
No more pain she’ll ever feel;
Though kindred ties here may bind her.
Weep not, weep not, while you kneel.
W. P. I).
The tritium lory of the System*
The stomach is the labratory of the system, in
which certain mysterious processes are constantly
going on. These results in the production of that
wonderful vivifying agent the blood, which in a
state-of health rushes laden with the elements of j
vitality to tine remotest parts of the system. But
when tlie stomach is semi-paralyzed ‘by dyspep- !
sia. blood manufacture is carried on imperfectly,
the circulation grows thin and sluggish, and the i
system suffers in consequence. Moreover, indi
gestion reacts upon the liver and bowels, render- 1
ing the first sluggish and the latter constipated. ;
The brain also sutlers by sympathy, and sick ;
headaches, sleeplessness and nervous symptoms •
are engendered. Hostcttvr's Stomach Bitters re- j
.’orms this state of things, gives permanent tone
and regularity to the stomach and its associate or
gans. the bowels and liver, and ensures complete
nourishment and increased vigor of the system, j
It is the most popular as Well as the most efficient 1
anti-dyspeptic and tonic in America.

NEARLY ALL BAKING POWDERS

The wily manufacturers of these spurious
