Qa ..__Df.au Sih: Please tell me
what you think altogether of the ser
viceable qualities of the “ Fairhaven
Country Press.” Is the newspaper
and job perfect and pretty, neat and
smooth? impression good? Please
send me your paper and some speci
men job work done on it, if Ido not
trouble you too much. I wish such a
press, if it will answer. Will its work
compare with that of the “ Camp
bell ?” Do you work it all by hand,
or altogether by steam ? If by hand,
does it fidigue much? Please give
me your real and frank judgment,
Respectfully,
Wm. L. Inglehakt,
“ Ed. and Prop. Advertiser.”
In reply to the above, we will say
that the “ Fairhaven Press,” taking
into consideration its low price,
great durability, convenience, elegant
app<*arance, superior distribution of
ink, not liable to get out of order, do
ing the greatest variety of work,
requiring less power than any other
and with less noise and jar, we con
sider it the best press for country'
newspaper and job offices, where a
variety of work is done. We print
business eards, circulars, letter and
bill-heads, as neatly on it as can be
done on a Gordon; also pamphlets,
handbills and posters, and chromatic
type with precision.
We have had an experience of up
wards of ten years as pressman in
newspaper and job offices, running
presses of different patterns, and un
hesitatingly express the above as our
candid professional opinion of the
“ Fairhaven Country Press.” We will
say here that no press is perfect , and we
have made some improvements on
ours, at a cost of less than five dollars,
which we will explain to you should
you purchase one and desire it.

The Education Bile. —On last
Thursday the House of Representa
tives passed an education bill origi
nally introduced by a carpet-bagger
from Mississippi, named Pierce, but
which was much improved by sever
al amendments afterwards incorpora
ted by Democratic members, promi
nent among which was one allowing
the States to forbid mixed schools.
Synopsized provisions of the bill
are as follows: One-half of the pro
ceds of the sales of public lands is to
l>e distributed among the States on
the basis of illiteracy, and therefore
on the population of school age. The
proceeds are about $1,000,000 annually.
The remaining half constitutes a per
petual fund in the United State's treas
ury for educational purposes. The
probability is that for the first ten
years four-fifths of the amount will be
expended in the South.
The World’s Railroads.—As
strange as it may seem, the United
States possesses more than 50,000
miles of railroad out of the 124,000 in
the world. Great Britain follows the
United States with 16,000 miles; Ger
many has 12,000; France 10,000; Rus
-5,600; Austria 4,600; Spain 3,700;
Italy 3,400; Belgium 1,000; Holland
1,000.

federate cruiser, said to be fitted out
in British ports, and under the com
mand of Captain Semmes,and known
as the “ Alabama,” committed terri
ble havoc upon the commerce of the
United States. For the injuries so
sustained, at the close of the war, the
United Htates Government, on the
ground that this vessel was armed
and equipped and stmt from British
waters by the permission if not by
the connivance of the British Gov
ernment, whieh, as a neutral nation,
she was l>ound to prevent, demands
redress, and particularly becaase after
j the battle of Gettysburgh, the only
I offensive operations which the Con
federate Government was able to
! make were through the agency of
| this vessel. The United States,
therefore, laid claim to damages for
all the injuries and losses sustained
by her in the premises, and the two
■ Governments failing to agree, both,
as to the terms and subject matter of
i the demand, at length agreed to sub
' mit the whole question to what is
j familiarly known as the “High Joint
| Commission,” selected by either par
; ty from their separate governments,
which commission met at the city of
Washington la»t year. The whole
matter was eventually, by them, de
termined to be submitted to an arbi
tration, to be held in the city of
Geneva and there the questions should
be decided. The two Governments
j agreeing to tills arrangement of the
j“Jligh Commission” ratified its
terms by treaty, known as the
“Treaty of Washington.” Much
feeling and considerable anxiety, in
relation to the whole cefke, had from
the beginning lieen entertained by
the respective Governments, but it
was now believed that a speedy and
amicable and satisfactory adjustment
of the matters in dispute would hap
pily be made. Some short time
since, according to arrangement, the
arbitrators met at Geneva and entered
upon their duties ; but difficulties are
presented, which, not only remove
the former hopes of a friendly settle
ment, but may leave the whole dif
ficulties to the decision of arms. We
learn generally that “ the claims
which the United States presented for
direct damages, for destruction of Gov
ernment vessels, and for Merchant
vessels and their cargoes, and for
Government expenditures in pursuit
of cruisers, and for enhanced rates of
insurance paid, amounted to some
thing over the sum of twenty-six
millions of dollars.” it would seem
that the British Government pro
ceeded in the submission of the ques
tion to arbitration under the idea
that the Government of the United
States would insist upon nothing
more than a claim for direct dama
ges for losses actually sustained,
amounting to the sum of some thir
teen or fourteen millions; but upon
the opening of the arbitration at Ge
neva, not only do the Americans in
sist upon these, as above mentioned,
but also upon all “incidental and
consequential damages and injuries
to persons, growing out of destruction
of Merchant vessels; upon all the
loss sustained by the transfer of the
American Commercial Marine to the
British flag, and for the consequen
tial prolongation of the war,” which
two last items are of most enormous
magnitude and sufficient of them
selves to bankrupt the Government
of England, creating a debt, which,
if recognized by the arbitration,
would surpass the onerous burden
imposed by Prussia upon France,
and whieh, in itsamazing magnitude,
would exceed anything in all histo
ry. To this unexpected and appaling
demand the British Government and
people indignantly object, the
Qneen herself, in her speech before
Parliament, declaring that these
large claims “ were understood on
her part, not to be within the province
of the arbitrators,” while Mr. Glad
stone openly announces that the spir
it of tiie British people will never
submit that they shall even be heard.
On the other hand, the Republican
party, through their leading papers
in this country, insist upon the points
as submitted to the arbitration ; and
although “ dispatches have been re
ceived at Washington, urging the ad
ministration to withdraw its claims
for consequential damages,” and al
though it & known that the “ excite
ment in England is intense,” yet
Secretary Fish is opposed to the
withdrawal of any claim, and Gener
al Grant himself declares “ that the
case as presented by our Government
shall not be amended or withdrawn.”
We are unable for ourselves to see
how the British Government can for
a moment submit to the American
construction; one which is prepos
terous in its terms, and ruinous and
dishonoring, if carried out, to the
people of Great Britain ; and the up
shot of the whole affair will be either
that the whole scheme of arbitration
will fall through, and the parties be
placed in statu quo as before any
agreement to arbitrate, or the Amer
ican Government will be left to de
termine whether she will resign her
demands, or rush heedlessly, led on
by her blundering Cabinet and thick
headed President, into a war with
the strongest naval power in the
world. We hope for better counsels
and a wiser course, but if left to Grant
and his immediate counsellors, we
can hardly say that we expect it.
We think, however, that the voice
of our whole people will restrain any
such inclination, and that we will
after all be saved from a war, even
though, it may and will be, at some
loss of what little character, as an
honest high-minded people, we may
be supposed to possess. It is not
honorable—nay, it is dishonest —to
seek an unjust pecuninary advan
tage, even in a private individual,
though, technically, a claim might be
advanced, when even a child could see
that such claim was as highly in
equitable as its motive was unjust.
It is, however, the nature of the
beast, and Yankee all over. We are
indebted for many of the views and
facts which we have here set forth to
two of our able contemporaries, the
Columbus Enquirer and Savannah
Republican, to whom we make our
acknowledgments, and apologize for
the length of this article because of
the interest which it excites among
our people.

The whole SUite is familiar with
the character of this famous lawyer
and judge, remarkable for satire and
naturally droll wit, and we venture
the assertion that he has orginated
more genuine specimens of either
than can lie fairly attributed to any
other man of his day. Not among
the least amusing circumstances, or
rather incidents, of his life, is the fol
lowing which occurred at Jackson
court, in the year 18—, at the dinner
table at Witt’s Hotel, in Jefferson.
Let us go back a little in order that
you may understand the story. Gen
eral Harden, one of the most genial
gentlemen in Georgia, and a favorite
with all his acquaintances, and who
himself was the very soul of wit,
had then lately moved from Savan
nah to Athens, and become a member
of the bar of the Western Circuit.
Some years prior to this time, he had
visited Europe and on his return
home of course had much to say of
the things he had seen and heard,
both amusing and instructive, to his
acquaintances. Always ready and
agreeable in conversation, he was of
course a prominent talker and was
always welcome by his fellows of the
bar.
There lived at this time, also, in
Madison county, Gabriel Nash, as
clever a fellow as ever breathed, full
of fun and anecdote, quaint in his
manners; not among the ablest of
his brethren as one learned in the
law, but one of the most dangerous
advocates in the Circuit before a jury,
and who by the way was a great fa
vorite among the gentlemen of the
green bag and universally popular,
and especially heldin particular
friendly regard by Judge Underwood.
Jackson Court was in session, and
the lawyers from the adjacent coun
ties and some from a distance were
in attendance upon the court. There
were the Doughertys, Chas. and Bob,
Judge Clayton, Judge Harris, Tom
Foster, Ililiyer, Mitchell, and many
others, and among them, Judge Un
derwood, General Harden and Nash.
The hour for dinner had arrived, and
they were all seated on either side of
the long dining table partaking of
the famous good cheer always fur
nished by the host, himself one of the
fraternity. At one end of the table
sat General Harden, with many oth
ers, with whom he was conversing,
while paying his respects to the well
loaded board ; while up at the other
end, Judge Underwood, and across
and directly facing him, Gabriel
Nash, the redoubtable advocate from
Madison. General Harden had but
lately moved to the up country, and
was personally but little aeqainted
with many of the bar, and knew but
little of the peculiarities of Judge
Underwood.
Harden was talking freely, and of
his visit to Europe ; and among the
many things which came under his
observation there, stated that he met
with a man in Paris, at the house
where he sojourned, who had a most
elaborate wardrobe, and among other
things, had in it as a part of his ordi
nary apparel, six dozen shirts. Judge
Underwood, at the other end of the
table some twenty feet distant, hear
ing the remark ceased for a moment
from his eating and leaning over the
table, with his head bent down and
looking in the direction of the other,
spoke out in a loud voice, of course so
as to be heard by every one in the
room, in his peculiar emphatic man
ner :
“ I say, General Harden, how
many shirts did you say that man
in Paris had in his wardrobe?”
“ Six dozen,” said the General.
Underwood ate on fora little while,
then laying down his knife and fork,
said, leaning over as before and in
terrupting the General in his conver
sation :
“ I say, General Harden, how
many shirts did you say that man in
Paris had in his wardrobe ?”
“ Six dozen,” said the General, a
little surprised at the repetition of the
question.
Resuming Ins knife and fork for a
little while, he soon laid them down
again, and leaning over the table
called out as before:
“I say, General Harden, how
many shirts did you say that man in
Paris had in his wardrobe?”
“ Six dozen, sir,” said the General,
indignant at this very apparent effort
to throw discredit on the statement
which he made. Almost furious at
this, to him, evident impeachment of
his veracity, the gentlemen sitting
near him were scarcely able to re
strain him in ids rage from making
an immediate attack on the Judge
and there at once defending his
honor.
“ Six dozen,” said Judge Under
wood ; “ six dozen, six dozen.” “ Ga
briel Nash,” said he, looking right
across the table at Nash, “ Gabriel
Nash, do you believe there are that
many shirts in the county of Mad
ison?”
It now became Nash’s turn to be
enraged. Here was a direct attack
upon the respectability of his county.
He knew her people were poor, and
she was rather in the backwoods, but
to be assailed in this way and to be
held up as naked savages, “he be
d —d if he’d stand it!” If Harden
was angry, Nash was furious; if
Harden had to be persuaded at one
end of the table, Nash had to be held
at the other. But if they were be
side themselves in their eager desire
to avenge themselves, every body
else was in a roar of laughter.
The jest was too good, not soon to
be seen, Harden laid aside all idea
of “ Pistols and coffee for two,” and
Nash joined at once and the heartiest
of all in the loud peal of merriment
which rang along the walls of the old
dining room.
Until the day that death divided
them, they were, from that hour,
warm and earnest friends.
THE GREAT WESTERN CANAL.
Messrs. Editors : As the people
of Georgia are more interested as to
what will benefit themselves than
that of any other section, we will
look at some of the effects likely to
result from this improvement to the
citizens of Georgia.
From the most reliable sources of
information it appears that almost
the whole line of this canal from the
Tennessee river to the Atlantic coast
will probably be within the limits of
our State, and that the outlay of cap
ital from the first to the last will not
be less than thirty millions of dollars
within the next few years.
This influx of means must give a
new impetus to agricultural and me
chanical pursuits, and more or less to
every kind of business along the en
tire line of the improvement. This
stimulus to trade and business will
The 'work will be completed in the
shortest time possible, and then new
villages and towns will spring up
along the lino and form new centers
of trade and hasiness, the greater
portion of the freight charges will be
less than one-third of the present
rates. Every purchaser of pro
vision, coal, etc., will experience a
relief that is easier imagined than
described.
Railroad monopolies will not then
extort exhorbitant charges near the
canal, for that will be free alike for
all to use upon the payment of a
nominal toll. A few poor men with
a horse apiece can u.dte their means
and purchase or buikl a boat, hitch
their horses to it, and take produce
to market or bring in supplies, or
trade from end to end of the canal.
The highest freight charges on
canals rarely exceed four or five mills
per ton, per mile, while railroad
charges range from fifteen to thirty
or forty, being from three to ten
times the charges by canal.
This canal when completed is des
tined to carry more freight than the
great Erie canal, which carries more
tonage in seven months of the year
than four double-track railroads do
in twelve months. This canal
through Georgia would not often
if ever be closed with ice. Compare
this, if you can , with the Erie, which
was closed in November, with two
millions of bushels of grain en route
to market, and most of it to remain
there till May. We think we have
to labor under great disadvantage
here, but what would we think if we
had no better outlet to market than
the northwest has, but they will not
long have to endure this state of
things. Chicago will send a portion
of her trade through Chicago and the
lakes.
This change in the course of trade
will produce many other changes that
it is impossible now to imagine. Di
rect trade to Europe from the mouth
of this canal will be one of the neces
sary consequences, and the countless
millions of wealth that has been pour
ing into New York, and all along her
lines of improvements, will in part
be turned to Georgia and other
Southern States. Manufactures will
no longer be confined to the Eastern
States, but skill, energy, and capital
will be attracted here. Georgia will
then not only make cotton, but will
reap some of the profits. Along our
rivers of unsurpassed water-power
will be found not only ten thousand
spindles and looms, but all necessary
agricultural and mechanical imple
ments, made on our own soil, and
the profits arising therefrom to re
main amongst us. These results, to
a greater or less extent, will certainly
follow the opening of this line of
trade, and throughout the
length of the canal, from one hun
dred miles at least, on either side,
will be gathered all the surplus pro
duction made by our people, and we
may expect thrift, and independence
will be enjoyed by the people to a
greater extent than hitherto.
We will not pursue this thought
now, but will, if circumstances per
mit, look at tho' importance of the
work to others. A Georgian.
PUBLIC SCHOOLS.
An Interesting letter from the State School
Commissioner—The Law in Regard to
Public Schools.
From the Atlanta Constitution.]
Permit me through your columns,
to give, as briefly as possible, certain
information. Ist, to those interested
in public schools to be inaugurated for
the year 1872, and 2d, to those who
have rendered service the past year
and are still unpaid.
First, as to the schools for the pres
ent year. Under the amended school
law, no school can be establishad in
any county until the fall term of the
Superior Court for that county. The
only school officers for the county, un
de/the law, will be the County Board,
to be composed of five freeholders, and
the County Commissioners, chosen by
them either from their own number,
or from the citizens of the county.
The Grand Jury, at its first session
after the passage of the law, (sec. 15,)
is to choose this Board, and it is made
the duty of the Board (sec. 19) to
“ make an estimate of the amount nec
essary, in addition to what will be re
ceived from the State, to carry on said
schools for at least six months in the
year, which estimate shall be placed
before the Grand Jury at its next ses
sion, and said Grand Jury may, if
they approve said estimate, authorize
the Ordinary or County Commissioner
in such county to levy a county tax
sufficient to raise the required sum.”
Thus it is clear no county tax can be
levied till the hill term of the court;
and section 30th, provides that “in
case the Board of education of any
county shall fail to make the necessa
ry provisions for continuing the
schools in operation the length of time
herein required, (six months, or in
the case of ambulatory schools, three
months—Com.,) such as graded or high
schools and primary schools, as the
case may be, shall not be entitled to
any portion of the school fund arising
from the State tax during the next
succeeding school year or subsequent
school years, until the establishment
of such school or schools, but such
fund shall remain in the treasury of
Georgia.” This last quotation seems
to establish it as the policy of the law
to pay over to no county her pro rata
part of the State fund, till the consti
tuted authorities levy the necessary
countv tax. It is clear, then, that no
schools can be established till the sec
ond term of the court, and not then
without the Grand Jury shall author
ize the levy of the necessary tax. I
would, therefore, recommend teach
ers to open private schools upon their
own terms for the first half of the
year.
2. As to the compensation for services
rendered by teachers and others the
past year, it will be seen from the
copy of the law, which has been gen
erally distributed among the school
officers, that section 4th of the act ap
proved 20th of January, 1872, author
izes the Governor to draw his war
rant on the Treasurer in favor of the
State School Commissioner for the
sum of three hundred thousand dol
dars to be paid out of the funds then
in the Treasury appropriated by law
to the public school system ; and if
said sum is insufficient to pay the debt
now due to the officers and teachers of
the public schools, section sth pro
vides that the amount shall be raised
by a sale of bonds now in the Treasu
ry of the State under act of July 16th,
1870. It is impossible for me to tell
at what time this money will be
ready for distribution for several rea
sons* In the first place there is great
uncertainty as to what amount is due
the school fund and it is impossible
to ascertain at present what portion
of this is now in the treasury. Sec
ond, A provision to the section in ref
erence to the sale of bonds says that
they shall not be sold at rates injuri
ous'to the credit of the State, to be
left to the discretion of the Governor.
Third, Another proviso requires the
money to be distributed in the pro
portion of the children of each county
entitled to the privileges of the pub
lic schools, and there are thirty coun
ties in the State that have not made
full returns as to the number of chil
dren so entitled. Just as soon as the
necessary steps can be taken to real
ize the money in a manner which
shall accord with the provisions of
the law, it will be done, and the par
ties interested shall receive the proper
official notice from this department.
