The Carroll County Times. MDWIIV St. SHAitt'K, auditor. CARROLLTON Ga. May 26, 1876 The Revival of our Indus tries the only Road to Resumption. The Hon. H R. Hams, member of Congress from this district, has made a speech upon the above subject, which is spoken of very highly by the press of the country. In the Macon Telegraph of the 13th inst., we find the fololwing brief synopsis of this speech: “The speech of Hon. Henry R. Har ris, of Georgia, delivered in the House of Representatives on the third instant stamps him at once as one of the ablest thinkers and most astute mem bers of the Federal Congress. Commencing with a rehearsal of the present depressed and paralyzed con dituon of the country, which is the cause of actual poverty and distress to thousands, he proceeds to attribute the oause to the great decline in the productive industries of the nation.— Quoting from the repoit of the Secre tary of War for the last fiscal year, he gives the following decrease in the value of some of our chief produc tions. Agricultural implements, $464,331; hogs, $886,622; bacon and hams, $4,771,295; Indian coriw $313,024, wheat, $41,813,596 Ind’an corn meal, $238,866; rye, $1,363,792; railroad cars $641,037; coal, $1,183,211; raw cot ton, $20,584,955; hemp and manufac turers of hemp, $243,898; oils, $lO,- 530,594; spirits of turpentine. $834,- 389; tallow, $2,443, 117; tobacco, $5, 157,632; sailing vessels, $617,528; staves and timbers, $3,281,388; wool and other manufactures, $322,25G. This decrease in the exports of do mestic products, when tdded to the increased export of com, amounts in the aggregate to the enormous sum of $121,193,298. The speaker then proceeds to prove that it is erroneous to ascribe this falling oft to overproduction, as stu tistics show that in the past twenty years our imports have exceeded the exports to the enormous exteut of sl, 009,000,000. On the contrary, con- sumption has steadily increased throughout the world. Thus: In the year 1859 the exports of do mestic products from France amount ed in value to $253,292,400, and in 1873 they were $718,716,800. In 1865 the total exports of Austria were $170,340,670, and in 1872 sl9’, 090,630. In 1864, Belgium expoited to Great Britain $20,871,105, and in 1872 her total exports were $210,« 226,000. In 1874 Denmark export ed to Great Britian $11,211,500, in 1873, $17,855,G95; and this was prim cipally wheat. In 1864 Germany exported to England $73,981,675, and in 1873 $99,632,255; and the lar gest item ot these exports was wheat. In 1803 Russia expoit nl $111,655,00), and m 1872, $246,645,265. In 1864 England exported $902,245,000, and in 1873, $1,275,823,015. The above figures indicate an in crease ot about 100 per cent, in the value of the exports of these nations. The United States in 18G9 exported $439,134 529, and in 1375, $499,284, 100, showing an advance of seven per cent. The inevitable conclusion therefore is that over import it ion and under production are the true sources of all orr difficulties. So m the cotton trade, though the consumption of the article since 1860 has (hulled , our exports have fallen off nearly fifty per cent,, while other countries have gained nearly 300 per cent. Take England for example. In 1860 she received from the United States 1,115,890,608 pounds of cotton and from all other sources 275, 480,- 144 pounds. In 1872, only 625,000,80 pounds entered her ports, and 783,237,392 pounds were purchased from other countries. All this is ascribed to the sagacity displayed in the improve ment of the internal transportation of her distant Asiatic colonies. Four hundred millions ot dollars were ex pended foi that purpose, the interest ot which (only four per cent.) is guar anteed by Government. “ Mr. Harris makes the startling an nounoement also that India sells more cotton in the European markets than we do, and is actually beginning to expoit the staple to America. In IS 1 4, 3,625,830 pounds of raw cotton were imported into the United States from China and the East Indies, worth one million of dollars. The cure for this, he contends, U „ ot to plant less cotton but to raise it cheap tr. And this can be accomplished ! only by following the example ot our 1 rivals ami reducing the price of labor 1 and food, and the cost of transporta tion by improving the internal navi gation ot tire counti y. The same rs equally true of the grain crop, England buys annually $208,699,055 worth of wheat and corn and the United States with her teems mg prairies and vast domain adapted to the gi-Qwth of cereals, furnished in 18/3 less -one fourth of that amount, or $04,039,003. And yet we are told that the farmers of the West burn their corn for fuel, and the single State of Illinois is capable of producing enough food for the sup port of ten millions of people. Once the Uuited States enjoyed the monopoly of the grain trade, with all Europe as competitors. But when the Danube was opened for transportation Russia came to the front with her fertile soil, cheap labor and lower ins terest on capital, and undersold American wheat, thus greatly damag ing our trade. Taking Great Britian again as an illustration, we find from 1860-64 she imported from this country 127,047,- 126 bushels of grain, and only 47,- 366,809 bushels from Russia, But since that period the tables have been turned, and from 1868-72 Russia fur nished 117,967,022 bushels, and the United States 116,462,380 bushels; showing an increase for the former of 70,590,213 bushels, and a decrease for America ot 10,583,740 bushels. To account for this, and similar facts, the speaker draws the wise con elusion that the cost of raw material is largely dependent upon the cost of transportation, and the rate of in.er est on the capital employed in mov big it. It should not be forgotten that the farmers of the West have to pay ‘six bushels of corn to send one bushel to the cotton spinners of the East , and eight bushels to send one to the cotton producers of the South. How, then, can we hope to raise cheap cotton at the South or compete with the grain markets of Etvope m the face of such diftieu’ties. Mr. Harris applies his argument also to the cotton manufacturing in terest of the country, and urges that it is the cost ot’ production and trails,- porlation alone, that prevents us from being masters of the situation and in advance of Europe. lie says, ‘al most every country in Europe imports, to a greater or less extent, the cotton goods of England, and we, of the Uni ted States, with all our superior natural advantage, both for produc tion and manufacure, import from abroad, and principlally from Eng land, about s3o,ooo,oooannually. England imports $272,524,235 worth ol raw cotton and sells it. when manufactured, at a profit of $113,- 293,840. And yet she brings tlia raw material from the remotest quar ters of the globe, while we have the fleecy staple at our doors, and abun dance of unrivalled waterpower- The iron trade languishes too from the same causes. Actual expe lament proves that iron can be produced of superior quality in i large scope ot country embracing porti ons of Georgia, Tennessee and Alabama, at sl6 per ton. And yet iron that cost $22 per ton, is positive ly diiving the cheaper article out of the market, And for the obvious reason that it only costs SI.BO per ton to get the higher priced ore to mar ket, while it requires six times as much, or $10.75 per tori to move the cheap iron. The removal of a few obstructions to the navigation of sev eral deep streams would result in the saving of thousands of dollars to the country annually. The speaker also graphically de picts the injury to agriculture, result ing from dear labor and high rates of transportation, which for the past yeir, on cotton and gram alone, is estimated at $62,000,000. But it is impossible, in the limits of a newspa per article, to follow him, and we commend the published speech to the careful perusal of our readers. On the question of the finances, his views are sound, sensible and worthy of consideration. Our orator thinks that all that is necessary to give seen rity and confidence to the present currency, is ‘uniformity ot value,' and that can be imparted by making it ‘a legal tender in payment of all debts.’ This would restore confidence to cap ital, without which the wheels of commerce cease to move. At this time Great Britain has $23.- 66 per capita ot currency in circula tion. Fiance $36.85, the German Empire $20.64 and the United States only $lB. 06. If made a full legal tender, how ev er, for all dues, he thir.ks even this small amount sufficient for the wants of trade. The reduction in the rate of interest also would go very far as a remedial measure. Mr. Harris contends justly that no arbitrary enactment ot Congress can establish a gold basis so long as the demands of trade require a circula tion of $750,000,000 of currency, and when there are only about $140,000,- 000 of com m the country, and that ; small amount only here, because re ! quired to pay custom duties, and iu- I terest on the public debt. If all the i gold coined by the Government from its foundation could be gathered to gethcr, it would only amount to sl.- ) 200.009,000, or less than sufficient bv many millions to pay ow foreign bon* ded debt alone. He sums up the whole subject as follows: 1 Reduce the expenditures of the Government to the lowest point com patible with the efficiency of its ad ministration. Cut off every super numerary. Repeal the iniquitous In- S ferual Revenue system, which bears so heavily on producers, who are tax ed by it to the extent of $100,000,000 i annually. Re adjust the tariff in the I inteiert of the products of 1 classes ot labor in every section of the coun try. Practice economy in everything, and so commend it to our people.— I ’usband the vast revenues of the Government, and apply them to the full developement of our immeasura ble resom ces, opening up our great natural highways ot commerce: and thus remove the greatest obstacle to the utilization of our products. It would afford us much pleasure to reproduc e the whole of this admira ble effort of our distinguished re pro t sentative, but it is too voluminous for { newspaper publication. The foregoing is the briefest possi ble resume ot its leading features . ° ! His speech is one of the ablest that has been made dining the present session, and the burden, which is ini'- proved interior water communica tions, wo trust, will find favor from its national importance, with the repre sentatives of every Slate in the Union. Bullock. Bullock the well known busy B. who figured seve al years ago, through fiaud, as the Governor of this com monwealth, and who fled the Stale' when there was danger, as lie thought of impeachment, by a 1) em o cralic Legislature, was arrested last week at Albion New York, where he lias been living since he left Georgia and brought back to Atlama. There are several indictments, we believe, against Rufus in Fulton Supeiior court, but the ones under which lie was arrested were the ones made soon after he fled the Slate, charging him with cheating and swindling in con nection with the Tennessee Car Com pany business. After he got to At lanta, he was released on bail, the bail being put at $13,000, which he r< adily gave. There are so many quibbles m law, if a ciiinmal has money, it is a diffi cult matter to convict and we really do not think anything will ever be done with Bullock or Blodgett either. Another thing, it all accounts be tiue, a good many Democ»ats were mixed up with Bullock, in his rise ably, and it will be to the interest of these pat ties to shield B. as far as possible. A reporter of the Atlanta Constiiu tion interviewed Bullock, h later part of last week and publishes his interview in about two columns of that paper, which the Griffin N« j ws condenses into the following: Ist. Bubock always considered Georgia his home. 2d. I[o never got away frotn here with any money ot con quence and not a dollar that be'o ■ and to the State. He bad been living comforta bly though iiugallv, at Albion, New York ever since, and liv on about a quai rof the amount he us <1 to spe. ... in Augusta before he went into politics. 3d. He had not the remotest idea why he was arr sled just at this lime uni ss it was because tins Is the Cen tennial yea . He has been ready and willing at any 'me to come to Geor at the request of Gov. Smith to an swer anv prosecution against him.— Hasn’t the slight rt 1 ars of being convictc 1 of any offence wh .lever. 4-th. As to having a ‘an box ” He says he has a large amount of pri v. te leUers from gentlemen of high character and official position, who belong to the Democratic p a ly, but the public will never gqt a chance to know their conte.iD, as he never be trays confidence. sth. Ilis stay in Geo -gia will be owing to circumstance . He consid ers it his home, and 1< s never voted since he left here. From the West Point Tress of the 20th inst. we learn that the District Meeting of die LaGrange District will commence in that place on Wednesday before the 4th Sundav in July, instead of the sth Sunday, as previously announced. The change is made to secure the attendance of Bishop Pierce, who could not be present at the latter date. West Point will not be outdone. It has a Tautological Society, organized we believe by our old friend Dr. A. W. Griggs. We notice from its pro ceedings, that, as its name indicates, no ‘pent up Utica’ contracts its discus sions, but it embraces the whole cir cle of sciences, all the world, and the rest of mankind. The grand jury of Fulton county on last Tuesday, found a true bill against John Jones, late Slate treasur er. The bill ism very long one and charges the accused with witholding from the State of Georgia the sum of $110,276,84 of moneys coming into his possession as such officer, and which he failed to pay over within ten days after demand. On the in dictment Jones was arrested and bond fixed at SIO,OOO which he had not 1 made at last accounts. Our Washington Letter. Washington, D. C., May xg 1876. THE REFORM CONFERENCE. Any attempt to underestimate the influence or effect of the Reform Con ference which has just met in New York would be unwise; and the asser tion that the leaders of either pavty do not regard its deliberations as of the greatest importance, is false. The Washington Organ ot the White House Ring pretends to consider the proceedings and address of the Con ference as of no weight, and only ; worthy of contempt; and, to prove | how little attention they deserve, the aforesaid organ has, in this morning’s I issue, twelve separate editonal arti | cles and paragraphs on the Confer ence, its personnel and proceedings. | And each one of these articles is in | tended to prove that the subject is not worthy of notice. The men as sembled in New York, yesterday, represent the most respectable por tion of the Republican party, the class to whom the address of the Demo cratic National Committee extends its iuvitatian to join the Democratic party. These men and their iollow cis are ready to work and vote with us on the issue of Administrative Re form; and if the temper of leading Democrats here is an indication of party feeling, that is to be the sole issue of the campaign. The applause with which the name of Samuel J. Tilden was received in the Confer ence proves that these gentlemen, al though most ot them are identified with tlie Republican party, have no partizan bias, and ate leady to act with the Democratic party for the suppression of political eon option. SECRETARY BRISTOW was blackballed at the Union League Club in New Yosk last Thursday night, and the excitement consequent upon such a small-souled manifesta tion of personal or political spite has naturally reached the capital. There wete 118 white bads lor Bristow and 12 black balls; and as 10 black balls m 100 defeat a candidate, lie was not elected. It was at first ascribed to the positive animosity of the Custom House Ring; but they sturdily dis claim it—a disclaimer entitled to credit from all men possessed of a fair share of manhood, if for no other re a son than because ih'Yi.l is so con temptible and asinine, and so certain to recoil on the act *i 4, jphen and iscov ered. But that is also a reason why no one else should have attempied it. S tine think the WJpsky Ring have taken aback lick at The Tice may tor hunting them hue otheis charge it upon the iutlrfei.-'y of a su gar importer, who MG had a giiev I ance against the official. Be trie cause ! what it mnv, it can ha.vi no other e-r -->. of .

Mrs. Minnie Shesman Fitch, wiho of Lieut. Fitch, of the Navy, ami daughter of General Sherman, is now in a fat way of getting the valuable diamonds presented Iter by the Ivi ed ive of Egypt, They have been lying in the Custom at New York for seveial years, on aecQunt of the inability of Lieut. Fitch or General Sherman to pay the duty on them; and bills have failed of passage, admitting them free of duty. Such a bill has now passed both Houses, and it will of course receive the approval of the President. While, perhaps, this con cession by Congress, out of respect for the exalted office of General of the Army, may be all very right and proper, it is severely criticized bv many who aie curious to know why an office teeviving neatly as much in the wav of salary as the President of the United States himself, should be singled out for the bestowal of a valuable priviledge which would nev er be granted to a citizen in the hum bler walks of life. These carping clitics forget that the Good Look says, ‘Unto him that hath, more shall be given; and from him who hath not, shall be taken away even that wlfch he hath ’ It would have been an ex ceedingly difficult mailer to nenwate ly determine the airman t of dupes on these gems, as trier/ \ able has been estimated all the way f.om $25,000 to sooo,ooo. On the Ist of Apiil. one year ago, a city paper printed a large and circmstantial account of the stealing of these diamonds the night pievious, and their prompt recovery by the detectives. The a, dele closed bv stating that they would that day be exhibited at a prominent jewelry store on Pennsylvania avenue, and the result was that hundreds of people including many high in official posi tion, visited the store, and- to their intense disgust, we ! *e reminded that it was ‘All Fool’s Day.’ The dia monds, were, of course, lying in tire Custom House vaults in New York. THE LETTER CARRIER SYSTEM. People who are so unfo* Innate as to reside in cities o + less than 20,000 inhabitants have reason to congiatu late themselves on ’he very decisive vote m the House on Finlay, by which that clause in the report of the Committee on Appropriations, bunt ing the carrier system to cities of 49,- 000 inhabitants was rejected. The vote was 125 to 29. It will be hard ly possibly to change the law on this i subject now. Tire mistake, if it was ; one, lias been made, and the people of I small cities have enjoyed the prm j ledge of free delivery too long to give iit up now, without producing more ; general dissatisfaction than the annus ; al sav’ »g worth to the Tren<iry. The Radical delegates to the (Jins cinnati Convention to nominate a can didate tor Pi esid em, from the Slate at large, are H. P. Farrow, J. Atkins, George Wallace and H M. Turner. The last two are negroes. The dele gates from this district are 11. L. Mott and Sam Smith with J. M. \\ ard and Carter Hell for alternates. sxzssmaßmeaai NEW ADVERTISEMENTS.
