• -—lt gives us great pleasure to note the
Tapid strides in journalism which the Augusta
Chronicle § CouatitutionaUat is making. It
is now one of the best dailies in the State.
■We wish it abundant success.
A chemist up North has been experi
menting with sorghum cane. He finds that
is the cane if left in the field until frost it will
.yield as much sugar as the Louisiana cane,
if manipulated in the same manner. If these
experiments are verified, this will open anew
field of industry to Georgia and the other
.Southern States.
—We speak sincerely when we say that wc
have long since accorded to the Gainesville
S nUhron and its editor a devotion to princi
ples, under all circumstances, that is rare in
these days, when a newspaper never pretends
t<* rise above party dictates. The Southron
is the only real independent newspaper that
we know of in the State of Georgia.
—For the past week the dailies have had
accounts of the misdeeds of a prominent
Southern Congressman. It appears to be
eomc social scandal. One day it is reported
to be true, the next there is a denial. So
that it is really hard to tell what is the truth.
The one fact is made patent, that society in
Washington is not as pure and as free from
reproach as it might he. That a great reform
could ho made in that direction no one de
nio, yet no one commences the reform, and
wc see but one way to accomplish it, and that
lis to sen ! men there who are above suspicion
at home.
—At last some definite information in re
gard to the late rakoad moves can be given
to oar readers. The whole outcome of the
matter is that the Georgia, Central, and Louis
ville & Nashville railroads have entered into
a contract for five years to control, between
them, all of the Western freight. This gives
a through line from the lakes to the sea. It
is the greatest combination of wealth under
one management in the South. How it will
turn out for our people we cannot at present
predict, but trust that it will be the means of
giving ns direct trade with Europe at no dis
tant day.
—Pennsylvania held its convention last
week to select delegates to the Republican
Nominating Convention. Grant men were
chosen, thus committing the Republican
party oi that State to Grant, and a third
term. From later indications, it is announ
ced that this does not quite meet the approv
al of all of the Republicans of that State.
There appears to be a strong sentirneut
against (riant. What the outcome will be
we cannot at present tell, but suppose that
it will end only in talk. A Republican never
lets his individual preferences come between
him and the dictates of Lis party leaders.
—Simmons is causing lots of trouble
amongst our Congressmen and Senators in
Washington. Hill, Stephens and Felton
advocate his appointment, and the rest of the
delegation oppose him, with the exception of
Emory Speer; he has not commit ed himself
upon the question. We care nothing about
Felton’s eourse in the matter, but of Mr.
Stephens and Senator Ilill wc expected a
neutral course, if not opposition to the
nomination. Why these gentlemen should
insist upon putting this man in authority
over Georgians we cannot understand. We
base our opposition solely upon the ground
that if the letter to tiie President, which it is
claimed that he wrote, is a fact, then the
sentiments therein expressed disqualify him
most signal)}’ from holding an} - kind of office
or place of trust over his fellow creatures.
M e care not what ho says about secession ;
the expressed desire for revenge, the spirit
of hatred revealed against his neighbors is
what we make up our opinion froip, and
would, as we thought, have influenced our
Representatives to show to the world that
they could act independent of personal
feeling and private animosity, where the
people of their State were directly concerned.

General Sherman’s Methods.
The following, from the Savannah Morning
Neva, will explain the row between General
Sherman and lion. Emory Speer, ot this Dis
trict :
“ RepreentativoSpeer,n{ Georgia recently
introduced in the House a bill to prohibit
the bands of the army from playing music on
Sunday. This bill, it seems, is objectionable
to General Sherman, and that distinguished
officer has written a letter to Mr. Speer, in
which he threatens to remove the troops from
the garrison at Atlanta if that gentleman
presse>his bill. There are several companies
of troops and a band of music stationed at
Atlanta, and their presence - contributes to
the amusement and gayety of social life at
that point, and adds materially to the busi
ness interests of Atlanta. The garrison is.
therefore, popular with the people, who'would
exertrdi proper influence against its reduction
or removal. General Sherman’s letter,
th reate ningtore rn ove tn et n n>p s fro m All ant a.
lias been made known to Hie people of that
section, and has resulted in bringing to Mr.
Speer a large number of letters protesting
against the passage of his bill. Air. Speer
has lieen irritated by General Sherman’s
method of expressing opposition to his
measure, and regards his conduct as an at
i tempt unduly to influence legislation, and to
intimidate a Representative in Congress in
1 the discharge of his public duties. He there
fore proposes to rise to a personal explana
tion, and to call the General of the Army to
account for threatening to use his official in
fluence to defeat a measure pending in Con
gress and ior attempting to intimidate mem
; hers of the House. One of the rules of the
War Department requires that all officers of
♦ lie army in addressing communications to
Congress, or to Ihe members thereof, in
reference to any subject of legislation, shall
forward them through the Secretary of War.
Mr. Speer claims that General Sherman is
subject to reprimand for violation of this
regulation in addressing a threatening letter
; to him in reference to the bill for prohibiting
army bands from playing music on -Sundays.”
Washington Letter.
[From our regular Correspondent.]
Washington, D. C., Feb. 16th, 1880.
Fashionable society at the capital now
takes a recess, after several weeks of unusual
gaiety. For a time the round of parties and
receptions cease, and the devotees of fashion’s
follies get a respite from their dissipations.
Lent must be to them a most welcome rest.
The receptions at the White House this season
have been more largely attended and brilliant
than any since the fraudulent president took
possession of it. At the last public recep
tion on Saturday night there was a rush, and
a good part of the crowd appeared to have
come in from the street on the way home
from their daily labors. It is one of the
forcible illustrations of the spirit of this
government to see high and low, capitalist
and laborer alike welcome to struggle en masse
through the spacious and elegant parlors
occupied by the chief magistrate of the land,
and grasp their rulers by the hand.
But the high-toned and aristocratic recep
tion occurred on Tuesday evening, when Mr.
and Mn. LI ayes received the Diplomatic
Corps. It was a really brilliant, not to say
aorgeotis aflair. \\ hen Mrs. Lincoln reigned
in tlie Idle House she inaugurated the plan
of making a division of society after the
gue its had entered. She had a door set apart
b>* trie Jn Iges of the Supreme Court, Senators,
army and navy and foreign Ministers. .Mem
bers of Congress were lierde l with the com
mon people, and actually forced through the
same door. \\ hen Mrs. J alia Grant.succeeded
to the sceptre she realized that any distinction
of this kind would make any administration
unpopular ; so she decided that all persons
who entered tiie front door of the Mansion
were entitled to the same social privilege, and
all doors should be alike to the guests. But
to get over the difficulty and please royalty
as well as democracy. Mrs. Grant discovered
a side door, a sort of sneak entrance, where
those who wished to avoid the crowd couid
pass in, take up their positions in the rear of
the “ thr me,” and glare upon the struggling
crowd of humanity as it passed by in single
file. Mrs. Haves' aristocratic notions have
led her to revive the system of Mrs. Lincoln,
and she has doors for the common people and
other doors for the great.
It is said that one of the most impressive
and gorgeous receptions ever given in the
White House occurred toward the last of
President Lincoln's first term. The White
House looked old, worn and dingy, for this
precede 1 the golden splendor of the Grant
regime, but the brilliancy and magnificence
was ma le up by the scarlet uniforms of the
Marine Band with the gilt buttons and shoul
doer straps of the brave defenders of the
Union, wiio clustered about the Capital in
those historic days. The same struggling
tide of humanity inundated the doors of the
Executive Mansion, but at every turn a soldier
was stationed to keep the crowd within the
limit of Mrs. Lincoln's law. Rayonetsglitter
ing over the daintily dressed heads and bare
shoulders of the beautifully dressed ladies
who declared that ” mob law” was now in
augurated and ” they should never visit the
White House again, until a change.'' But if
the guests felt insulted at the presence of the
bayonets what was their astonishment upon
going into the “ presence’’ to find a genuine
j crown on Mrs. Lincoln’s head. It was made
| of gilt, hut looked precisely like those which
| are found on the heads of those distinguished
: women about whom we read in Agnes Strick
| land’s *• Lives of the Queens of England.”
The stones or gems were wanting, but the
| tinsel and gilt was all there. There was only
! time allowed to note that dear old Abraham
: looked down at the little “ bobbing” woman
| at his side, as he might at a frolicsome kitten.
That “crown” was a harmless head-dress in
vented by a Philadelphia milkier, and Mr.
| Lincoln ridiculed it so severly that its debut
I and withdrawal all took place the same night.
The bill introduced in the House at the ex
tra session to make the Commissioner of
I Agriculture a Cabinet Officer, has got a
j favorable report from the Committee, but it
! will never go beyond this. The proposition
j liasgenerallv been regarded as one of LeDuo’s
j crazy schemes. The tax-paying people of
! this country are opposed to any increase of
; their burdens in the shape of additional office
| holders. Then, from a political point of
| view, there is very little probability of the
1 passage of this bill. A Democratic Congress
1 will not be likely to enlarge the powers and
j add to the patronage and influence of a re
publican administration. The bill will have
arrayed against it all the interests except
that of agriculture. Whenever it come before
the House, amendments will be offered to
■ create a department of commerce, department
of manufactures, and de; a tments represent
ingother interests, each to be presided over bv
a cabinet officer with the usual assistants, and
secretaries and other accessories. It will he
contended that commerce, for instance, is as j
much entitled to a position in the cabinet as
agriculture. The opposition to the bill is so
strong that it will be defeated, notwithstand-1
ing a favorable report from the committee.
There are rumors on the street to-day of a
little unpleasantness between Mr. Hayes and
John Sherman. It is reported that Hayes j
took the Secretary to task for using the
Treasury to forward his presidential aspira
tions and charged that he had “ Stultified’’ j
the Administration. Report has it that
Rutherford got right up on his ear and in-1
formed Sherman that the Civil Service rules
must not be entirely ignored, at least not so ;
long before election. Piiono.
Land Registration.
The managers of the Atlanta and Char
lotte Air-Line Railway, feeling the impor-;
tanee of encouraging immigration from other
sections and foreign countries, have appoint
ed Dr. .J. W. Moorman as registrar of lands.
Idle object is to record all lands adjacent to
the line of this road, that may be ottered for
sale, and by means of advertising and for
eign emigrant agents, induce, from other sec
tions, direct settlements on said land. To
accomplish this the company will have to
become a party to it, in order to give confi
dence and concentration to the movement.
I All that will be asked as compensation for
advertising and registering will be five per
j cent, if sales are made; if not sold, then
nothing will be demanded by the company.
Land owners will bear in mind that this
registration is done by the company, solely
with the view of populating Ihg country on
the line of the road, expecting to receive
] compensation in the way of freights on pro
ducts and passenger fares produced by the
increase. All individuals, newpapers and
• organization, throughout the country are
equally interested in the success of this
movement, and as it is for the common good
jit is hoped that all will unite in making it
public, and rendering every facility to ad
vance it.
Dr. Moorman will commence the regis
tration at Charlotte. February IGth, and will
give dug notice of the time ho can bo met at
the station nearest the home of the party de
siring to register lands. Only one opportu
nity will be given, therefore it will be to
your interest to inquire of the railroad agent
when the land registrar will be at your sta
tion, and he there promptly at his appoint
ments. By this means thousands ofunoccu
! pied acres can be brought under cultivation,
and thousands of enterprising citizens added
to our population*
Saturday, Fohruarp 21st, there wili be a
presentation of an American flag by the com
pany to the King’s Mountain Centennial As
sociation. As large numbers are expected
Ito be present, an opportunity will be given
to register. Come with an abstract state
ment answering the following questions :
1. State of; 2. County of; 3. Township
or district; 4. Neighborhood ; 5. Population
of county; 6. Direction and distance from
railroad; 7. Direction and distance from
county site ; 8. Distance from and name of
nearest village ; 9. Distance from and name
ofnearestrailroad station ; 10. Distance from
and name of nearest postoffice; 11. Located

14. Character of soil; 15. Adapted to what

26. Number of fruit trees on tract; 27. Price

Let your prices be low, remembering you
are coming into competition witli the West.
! her cheap hinds and influential emigrant
agents, and to succeed it will require a large
liberality on the part of laud owners. I am
not at liberty to make public all I know on
this subject, but I can assure the public that
prompt action and liberal prices will com
mand attention from the outer world. Mem
orandum blanks can be obtained from the
railroad agents; but to insure proper regis
tration, all parties interested must be pres
ent at appointments, prepared to sign con
j tracts.

Fees, of Doctors.
'File fee of doctors is ail item that very
many persons are interested in just at pres
ent. We believe the schedule for visits is
$3.00, which would tax a man confined to
his bed for a year, anil in need of a daily
visit, over SI,OOO a year for medical atten
dance alone ! And one single bottle of Hop
Bitters taken in time would save the SI,OOO
and all the year's sickness.— Ed.
A Patent Rain Persuader.
General Daniel Haggles, of Virginia, at the
request of the Senate Committee on Agri
culture, appeared before them on Thursday
and explained his method of precipitating
rain-falls by scientific means. 11 is method
(for which he has recently been granted a
patent) is to send up to the cloud realm car
tridges of dynamite, or similar explosive
materials, in skeleton balloons, and to ex
plftde them either by time fuses, etc., or by
magneto electricity through light metallic
wire, connecting the balloons with the earth.
General Ruggles suggested to the committee
that Congress might provide a small appro
priation for expenditure by the Commis
sioner of Agriculture to test the practica
bility of aiding the agricultural interest of
the country in this manner. —Savannah Neios.
