The War Fever in Mew York.
Mr. George \V. ship broker
ami commission merchant, of New
York, who is largely engaged in busi
ness connected with Cuba, and who is
friendly to the Cuban cause, states, in
the New York papers, that large num
bers of men, some of whom bold high
and lesponsible positions, arc daily
offering their services in the cause of
Cuba, and also that he is daily receiv
ing large numbers of letters from all
parts of the country from persons of
fering to enlist in any movement
against the Spanish rule in Cuba, the
majority corning from New England.
Many not only offer themselves, but
offer to partly equip themselves and
bring forward other recruits. Mr.
Drown states that none of these ask
for any commission, their offers seen -
ing to be made in a sincere desire to
aid the oppressed.
A Rose That Lived Eighteen
Years in a Child’s Collin.
Mr. B. F. Remington, of this city,
who wa present when some bodies
were being disinterred at Claysville,
Harrison Cos., for reinterment in Battle
Grove Cemetery, Cynthiana, informs
us that a metallic case, which had
been placed a body of a two year old
child, a daughter of Dr. Curran, was
opened. The body was found *o be re
markably well preserved, and the fea
tures wearing almost the same expres
sion they did when the child breathed
its last, with the exception of the sink
ing of one eye, a slight flattening of
the nose and shrinking of the upper
lip. A rose-bud had been placed on
the breast of the child when buried,
and when the case was opened, it was
found that the bud had expended into
a beautiful full-blown rose, and was
lying upon the breast of the sweet lit
tle child, who had been an angel lor
more than eighteen years It was a
beautiful sight, and was accepted as a
good omen by those who looked upon
it, and truly felt that “of such is the
kingdom of heaven.”—Parts Kentuck

A Jersey Boy on tlie Virginius.
Edward Scott, a boy seventeen
years of age, and a resident of Salem,
N. J., is said to have been among the
crew of the Virginius. He ran away
from home several weeks ago, and
finally wrote to his parents informing
them that Captain Ryan had offered
him inducements to enlist in the cause
of Cuban independence, which he ac
cepted He is supposed to be one of
the three held by the Spaniards who
will be released.
The press of Georgia are just now
discussing the question of the proprie
ty of calling a Convention to revise
our State Constitution. There are
reasons pro and con, but we think the
weight of reasons is in favor of call
ing a Convention. The present Con
stitution framed and adopted by the
free will of the people ot Georgia; we
could do no better than accept in
1868, because we were then under du
ress. It was such as we could live
under until the passions and prejudi
ces of that day should have passed
away ; containing, nevertheless, many
very objectionable features. AVe see
no good reason why we may now
adopt a Constitution of our own choice.
1 here is no danger of Federal inter
ference. The question of expense is
very trival compared with the inter
ests involved. We need Constitution
al guaranties that we have not got
terms of office are too long. Home
stead too large. We should be pro
tected against corporations and com
bination of capital, &c. Indeed the
whole instrument n cds revision, and
many guaranties should be included
in it that arc not now there. The
present government need not neces
sarily be thrown out. Let the present
officer* remain in office until the expi
ration of their terms, then begin with
ttUorter terms from Governor down
I requent elections are the best guar
anty against official speculation. In
viewing the whole field, we
thuik a Convention should at once be
cal 1 ed.— Ctarkescille Herald,
UE County" Paper. —The “little
county paper” is tlie best read paper
in t,e world. No other contains the
ni .images and deaths, to say nothing
of divorces and births j no other re
Jutes the accident* happening before
!l,e doors ot the villagers ; no other
gives the time fur tiuAiext ball, picnic
or political meeting ; no other discuss
es the affairs of the town and county
the arrival of new goods on the mer
chant’s counter, or of anew baton the
editor’s desk. Without a paper a
town that h&* ever enjoyed a well
.managed one feels iudeed lost.— Ex.
r J lie Credit System.
Growing out of the present disturb
ed state of the finances, we see one
great evil threatening us. That is a
revival of the old credit system. We
really dread the thought of it, for
nothing so paralyses a country as
crediting. Necessarily a very large
amount of it must and will be done,
until partial relief comes, because, on
the one.band, purchasers must need
supp’ies of all sorts, who are without
means at present ; and because, on
the other, commodities on sale can’t
be held, except at the cost of nearly
stagnating business. But, in the
midst of all this, a rigid check must
be kept up, lust, we glide back to for
mer days In case we do, then will
capitalists hold smaller dealers abso
lutely in their power.
We had a feeling experience in this
matter in former days, when we tried
our venture in selling goods. We did
not survey the field property before
embarking, but very soon learned to
our cost, that in the midst of general
crediting, it requires a long purse and
vast strategy to do business. Simply
t > buy the goods and put them on the
shelves is only an introduction to the
long drama ahead; and if the purse
is not deep or the credit A No. 1, our
rival with these advantages will con
trol all the customers. It is to the
interest of dealers, large and small,
to maintain the cash system, by every
consideration It is to the interest of
the large dealer, because he can con
fine himself to wholesaling, far movr
satisfactory and lucrative business,
giving up the retail trade to the small
dealer. It is the salvation of the
small dealer, because it is the only
plan bv which he can possibly remain
in business.
And as applied to purchasers ; if
we say it is the “salvation of the
small dealer” to go on the cash basis,
what must it be to us—it is not only
our salvation—a saving of effects—
but a promoter of easy consciences,
peaceful slumbers and good digestion,
therefore, we exhort the whole multi
tude to stand to the cash basis though
we should be compelled to live on
bread crusts for the time. —Atlanta
Independent.
Better Prices in bight.
The last cotton circular issued by
Norton, Slaughter & Cos., of New
York—one of the largest firms operat
ing in the staple in that city—has
some comfort for planters. They say
“it is expected by our shrewdest finan
ciers that money will accumulate in
the banks and in the hands of private
capitalists to such an extent during
the next sixty days as to become a
drug and go begging for investment.
The stoppage of business to so large
an extent will necessarily produce this
result, and our banks and capitalists
will grow tired of receiving no in
comes, aid the whole machinery of
trade and manufacture be set in mo
tion by free offerings of money. Our
American spinners, by their temporary
stoppage, will greatly reduce the
stocks of goods, and will he able be
fore very long to resume work at
healthy prices tor their goods, and with
easy money will seek to secure a sup
ply of good cotton for their spring and
summer engagements. This, with re
duced planting, will bring English
into competition with American spin
ners, and with the aid of a large short
interest which speculation will surciy
create, will no doubt advance prices
in February or March.”
A Coin fiiom King Solomon’s Mint.—
We wore yesterday shown, by Mr. A.
Z. Rosenthal, a Jewish “shekel,” sup
posed to have been coined pivbably
in King Solomon’s reign—one thou
sand years before the Christian era.
Perhaps it is the identical kind used
by King Solomon in paying the labor
ers who built the famous temple. On
one side is a representation of a vase,
or probably a sacrificial altar, and the
inscription in Hebrew “Shekel of Is
rael.” On the reverse side is a repre
sentation of a tree, and the inscription
“Holiness of Jerusalem.” It is of
about the size and weight of what we
have known as the “Spanish” or “Mex
ican quarter,’ formerly in common cir
culation in tin's section.— Columbus
( Ktj.) JDisjmlch.
Jay Cook & Cos. were forced into
bankruptcy yesterday. These two
lines tell of the nullability of human
affairs and perils of greatness. The
lords of American finance are now
beggars at the gate, and must be sold
out just like any bankrupt corner gro
eery. So we suppose all the bubbles
of the civil war will burst in time.
The Chicago Tribune suggests that
when the House of Representatives
passes a resolution for war with Spain
it will also provide that, each Con
gressman shall forthwith deposit his
back-pay and increase of salary in the
Treasury to help foot the bill. We
might thus get money enough to pay
for three or four corvettes of the size
of the Tornado, and this would help
us materially in capturing and punish
ing that offending craft.
Advertising in Dull Times.
The Milwaukee Wisconsin relates
the following : “After the crash of
’57, when everybody was almost scar
ed to death and the croakers predicted
that the country had gone Cos smash, a
dry goods house was opened in this
city, which proceeded on the principle
that in order to reach the hoarded
money in the pockets of the people the
proprietors must sell at very reasona
ble prices and advertize very largely.
They worked vigorously upon tins
principle. Their brother merchants,
who did not advertize, predicted that
the new comers would be ruined, as
they paid too much for advertising
Nevertheless they persisted. In a
single year t cy paid five hundred dol
lars in gold to the Daily Wisconsin
for advertising and at the end of seven
years they retired from business with
a fortune of one hundred thousand
dollars, while other merchants on ti e
same street, some of them opposite
their store, had fa led.”
We remember a similar instance
among our own advertisers in the
panic of 1857. A merchant continued
his advertisement in our columns
through the whole period of stagna
tion, and notwithstanding many pre
dictions that “it wouldn’t pay.” llis
testimony afterward was that his sales
were steady and his profits satisfacto
ry, while many a merchant around him,
who “couldn’t afford to advrrtise,” saw
his clerks standing idle behind the
counters.
A financial panic dies not mean that
no one lias any money. There is
plenty of money in the country, and
those who hoard it are just the ones
to be eager for the “bargains” which
a fall in prices holds out. But to buy
they must know where to buy, and the
merchant who tells them will receive
their cash. —New York Evening Post.
A Contrast.
In the “loyal” and “protected” city
of Philadelphia, whore President Grant
owns real estate which pays high rent
and where President Grant’s richest
friends reside—in the very shadow 7 of
Jay Cook’s palace, where, on the eve
of the crash, President Grant took
sumptuous supper—in this one com
munity, we are told, thirty thousand
poor workmen are turned penniless
adrift to face the coming winter. Last
season they were kept busy, worked
hard, and got, on average, say three
dollars a day. Tin’s year, by no fault
of theirs, they get nothing ! Now,
for the contrast ! There is one man
in this country, not very hard-worked
cither, who. besides his house rent,
fuel, furniture, and attendance, gets
in the w ay of wages exactly $13(5 ‘.Mi
ni round numbeis sl37 —a day. He
is paid even on Sunday, and there is
no deduction when he is sick, or for
any less venial cause disabled for
work. Last year, poor man, be got
but S6B 44 a day. Discontented with
this poor pay, he and his fellow-suffer
ers did wliat. is a great crime for a
poor workman to do, they “struck for
higher wages,” and, as they happened
to have access to their master’s till,
they had no difficulty in getting what
they wanted ; and now they face the
winter bravely, and the poor handi
craftsman starves. It is in the face
of this contrast, which we have in no
sense over-drawn, that the job of
doubling the President’s salary, and
that of bis servants, seems too enor
mous to be tolerated. We have heard
of no Executive contributions out of
his increased pay, either to the suffer
ers of Minnellis or Shreveport.—Bal
timore Gazette.
Panic Wearing Out.
Gradually the worst effects of the
financial panic are wearing away, dan
is indicated by the almost daily re.
sumption of business by establish
meats which had suspended. Among
the more recent resumptions are the
following : The West Boylston Manu
facturing Company has resumed busi
ness, with a reduction of 20 per cent,
of wages. Several other establish
ments in Massachusetts, which had
closed, will resume, the operatives
having voluntarily come forward and
off rd to accept reduced wages. Re
ports from Maine, (Connecticut and
Rhode Island state that many manu
factories will resume in a week or two
on half time, and several have already
done so. There appears to be a cheer
ful feeling in the western part of New
York. Business men of Buffalo state
that they have not suffered from the
panic, and the financial depression has
bad little effect upon the general trade
of the cit} 7 . The long strike (since
July last) of the coal diggers along
the Monongehela river having termin
ated, all the coal works arc now run
ning their full capacity. Several sus
pended factories in Hartford, Connec
ticut, are to resume at once, and otle
ers are prepared to increase their lim
ning time.
The Virginius, it is said, belonged
to a Mr. Patterson, of New York city, j
and w r as, it is understood, bought by j
him for the Cabans. i
The Gen. R. E. Lee Monument.
The colossal monument to the mem
ory of Gen. Lee which is now rapidly
being constructed under the direction
and skill of Prof. Volentine, will, when
c nnpleted, be the greatest triumph of
art and mechanical skill ever produced
in this country. The structure will
be surmounted by a reclining figure
of Gen. Lee enveloped in his military
cloak. The form will he finely carved
in marble, and the expression of coun
tenance rendered with life-like correct
ness. In order to complete this grand
monument at the earliest possible day,
the Executive Committee of the Lee
Memorial Association, at Lexington
Va., which is composed of such distin
guished men as Gen. Pendleton, Gen.
Terry, Hon. Wm McLaughlin, Col.
Preston Johns>n, Col. James K. Ed
rnolidson, Clias. Davidson, and others
have, by permission, authorized the
publication and sale of a life size steel
engraved portrait of Gen. Joseph E.
Johnson. The proceeds of its sale to
be applied in furtherance of the object
of this Association, namely : to the
erection of a monument to the memo
ry of Gen. R. E. Lre, ut tbt* Washing
ton' and Lee University, Lexington
Va. The portrait will be sold only by
subscription, through regular author
ized agents, and every subscriber will
receive a certificate signed by the
Secretary and Chairman of the Lee
Memorial Association. We commend
this portrait to the public, and hope
some good energetic man will secure
the agency in this section in order to
help on the good work. Messrs. W.
W. Bostwick & Cos., Nos. 177 & 179
West Fourth Street, Cincinnatti, Ohio
have been constituted and appointed
General Managers of Agencies, and
any communications addressed to
them, for circulars, terms, and certifi
cates, will receive prompt attention.
A Gran* Newspaper Asks Some
Hard Questions.
It is the Cincinnatti Gazette, and it
wants to know, you know, if the “fa
bricated Cuban excitement is meant
to head off the people’s demand for a
reduction of our expanded army and
navy establishments, and to be made
a cover for a now inflation of these,
especially of our impotent and useless
navy? Shall we add 50 or 100 mil
lions to these useless expenditures lie
cause a parcel of fillibusters have been
taken and executed, where they went
to slay, plunder, burn and devastate
wherever they could descend on a de
fenseless hamlet or plantation ?”

At one of tin* hotels yesterday was
a family trawling West Timid Ver

Press.
Revival of Business.
The New York papers report quite
a revival of every branch of business
on Saturday last. There was an im
provement in prices of produce of all
kinds, the important article of cotton
included, and in groceries. There was
a better demand for tobacco, and
among the metals there was a better
feeling. There was also a rise in gold
which is not a bad sig'n. Flour was
fifteen to twenty-five cents per barrel
better. Wheat three to four cents
better. Cigars were advanced a frac
tion by the Cuban excitement. In
short there was decidedly more life in
trade and far uetter faith in the near
future.
The New York correspondent of the
Minneapolis Tribune says that the
Lorillaid’s method of advertising their
chewing tobacco by putting money in
the packages has not proved effective;
that the firm expended $65,000 in all,
and one of the proprietors acknowl
edged to the correspondent, that the
same amount expended in legitimate
newspaper advertising would have
paid far better. Some men have to
learn in an expensive school.
The first attempt made by the Treas
ury to substitute a metal currency for
the paper postal si.inplaster, was the
draw ing of the three cent and then of
the five cent paper notes, and issuing
in lieu thereof the three cent and five
cent nickel coin we have to-day. So
let the Treasury Department follow
along with the same plan it began ev
oral years back, and next substitute a
silver dime for the present paper ten
centnote. Then, when the amount of
silver bullion will warrant, gradually
withdraw the twenty-five cent notes
and put out the silver “quarter.” In
proper time the “half,” and lastly the
silver dollar.

many of the planters of Bartow county
are getting up a considerable number
of bales of cotton, which they intend
shipping to their agent in Augusta or
Savannah, to be sent to Liverpool on
their account, thus!< carrying out the
idea in this form, embraced in the ac
tion of the Alston Grange, of DeKalb
county. The same paper says that
they can draw on the cotton thirteen
cents per pound, and await the issue
of the sale in Liverpool, which it is
believed will net seventeen cents.

estimated at $8,000,000, and his in,
