OUK FINANCES.
The country is agitated over this
momentous question. All sorts of prop
bsitidhs, platfontls, speakers, leaders
H id omrii gdmls have afflicted tile
cottntry so that it is a difficult matter
for a plain thinking man to comprehend
the issue. The most sensible solution
hr ‘.lie difficulties is what is called the
Thurman platform, which is substan
tially is follows :
“We favor the gradual substitution
of United States legal tender paper
for national bank notes, and its perma
nent establishment as the paper mon
ey of the country—made receivable
for all dues to the government and of
equal tender with coin. The amount
of Such issues to be so fegulatcd by
law as to gite the people assurance of
stability ill the volume or the citrrenCy
and consequent stability of the value
—no fujllier increase in the bonded
debt, and no further sale of bonds for
the purchase of coin for resumption
purposes/’
It occurs to us that a platform of
principles embodying the plain state
ments above set forth would meet the
approval and support of all lovers of
honesty and constitutional liberty, We
need peace we heed all the blessings a
government can bestow ; a bright era
was dawning upon us wticb political
knaves, such as Kearney,and Sherman
and Butler bxcited tile country by
their cries of linancial reform. All the
refoim and relief the country stands ih
need of will be fully met and provided
for by the Democratic party. The
greenback movement is the movement
of pol'tieians who want place and pelf,
and they ought to be denounced —in
our country especially—for it only
teads to divide the people; they are
like the “independents,” enemies in
disgitlse, ahcl ought to be visited with
the condemnation df all honest people.
HON. riHL. COOK.
Our worthy representative in tho U.
B. Congress and the Democratic nomi
nee of this, Third Congressional Dis
tract, addresses the people of Cochran
to-day (19th,) and the people of Haw
kinsvilleon the filst inst.
We see by Gen. Cook's appointments
he will address the people o! this coun
ty on the 22d October. This county
having gone for Gen. Cook on the elec
tion lor delegates by a large majority
it is to be expected that a large attend
ance of the people will honor him with
their piesence. We hope to see it, and
We hope too that our p>eoplo will not
lose sight of the all-important fact that
it is necessary for us to poll all our
Votes ; let us give our leader a larger
vote than ever, and encourage him in
the work h<- has undertaken.
IION. N. J. HAMMOND.
It affords us pleasure to announce
the unanimous nomination of lion. N.
J. Hammond, of the county of Fulton,
alter the 180th ballot, to represent the
Filth Congressional District in the 46th
Congress of the United Spates. Col.
Hammond needs no eulogy, Lis career
lias been an honorable one ; ids servi
ces to the Slate in the resp msible po
Bilious to which lie has been c died,
entitle him to the unqualified praise of
all good people. We congratulate
Georgia on the choice of the Barnes
ville convention, and fullon e unity
for the victory achieved.
HOMICIDE IN HANCOCK.
On the night of September 10th, U.
S. deputy mftrshal Lffmsden with a
posse composed of Jack Kimbrew
JanteS Lakey and Jim Moore, with
process of arrest against the Ennis
brothers, proceeded to Hancock couns
ty, where, upon arrival, a collision oc
curred between the Ennis brothers and
the Marsha'/s posse, in which Mr.
Kimbrew of the Marshal’s posse, was
mortally and Mr. Laney seriously
wounded. The process was for illicit
distilling* and the place lias been
watched by United States officials ;
subsequently Capt. J. W. Anderson,
chief deputy marshal, proceeded to
Milledgeville,organized a strong posse ;
and went in search of the parties
charged,and returned without succeed
ing in making an arrest.
The Ennis family have appeared in
cards published in the Macon Teles
graph & Messetigcr, and so has Mr.
Lnmsdcn, deputy marshal, but the
statements are conflicting, and it is
difficult to give the real facts.
We regret there should be a conflict
between our people and the United
States and exceedingly
that the life of a good citizen should
thus be Sacrificed.
Geli. Cook’s Letter of Acceptance

A Slander Refuted.
Washington, Sept; 14.—The Post
yesterday, says the Telegraph & Mes-
published an interview with
Dr. Ramsey, one of the physicians who
returned frdrri Memphis, in which he
stated that he had been authentically
informed that white ladies have had to
take negro men fof nurses or go withs
out, and that such negro men nurses
have taken advantage of their helpless
victims.
Mr. Keating, editor of the Memphis
Appeal, having liad his attention called
to the statement, pronounces it utterly
untrue, and adds :
‘No man, white or black would be
allowed to breathe a second breath af
ter such crime became known. No
such crime has been committed. White
women Lave not been reduced to the
necessity of taking negro men for
nurses. The statement is a libel upon
the negroes of Memphis. All honor
to them. |They have done their duty.
They have acted by us uobly as police
men and as soldiers, as well as nursesi
They have responded to every call
made upon them in proportion to their
number, quite as promptly as the
whites. A few of them threatened
trouble about food at one time, but
they were at moment suppressed by a
company of citizen-soldiers of their
own color. The colored people of
Memphis, us a body, deserve well of
their white fellow-citizens. We ap
preciate and me proud of them/

OUR PARIS LETTER.
The Canadian Trophy—Sight and
Scenes ArOund Champ de Mrs
Paris, Sept. G, 1878.
Tiie Canadian towering up
a hundred feet under the north-west
ern dotfto, is an immense structure
composed of the timber of the couutry,
and is surrounded by specimens of
work done in it, and by a grand col
lection of ornamental woods ; and I
may state once for all that nearly all
the English colonies have sent speci
mens of their timber and ornamental
woods, which have been prepared and
set up with much care. And the same
remark will apply to many of the ge
ological and natural history collections
—especially Canada, which has a sep
erato list of the former class.
All the colonies exhibit stuffed birds
and animals ; and generally they are
well set up in the usual manner. But
in the Caaadian department a novel
and remarkable plan has been adopted
—the carcasses of deer and other ani
mals and birds are suspended by the
feet, as in a market or and pre
sent an admirable tableaux of “dead
game/’ while the fish lie on something
resembling herbage, and look as natiu
ral as if they had come out of the sea
or river an hour two since only. The
trophy contains examples of nearly
class in the collection, and visitors
wind up and down its staircase con
tinually, neither deterred by the black
bear that stands sentinel at oue door,
nor by the white one which performs
the same duty at the other.]
People who take in hand an inspec
tion of the Paris Exhibition in the ex
pectation that it will furnish them with
a faithful reflex of the present aspect
of the manufacture of iron and steel
are not only likely to be largely dis
appointed, but are certain, if influenced
in their judgment only by what thdy
see in the Champs de Mars, to be led
to altogether incorrect conclusions.
England, the leading country in all
that relates to the metalizing of iron,
is very inadequately represented;
America, the next in importance, comes
so far short of pul ting forth its real
strength that it had much better have
left itself altogether out of the reckon
ing; Germany, the third greatest rep
resentative of iron and steel, is in the
same position as America ; and Belgi
um has been content to leave itself
very largely in the hands of one firm
which, however, has worthily dis
charged the trust. On the other hand
it will be found that such countries as
Russia, Austria, and Sweden, with
natural resources and degrees of de
velopment that only entitled them to
a place in the third rank of the Euro
pean family, have done more in the
way of asserting their claims to recog.
nitioli as industrial powers than might
have been expected from them even if
they had been much more liberally
endowed by nature, and geographical
ly within easier reach of the Champ
de Mars. But alter these considera
tions have been duly discounted, the
collective exhibits of iron and steel pre
sent education and facilities and scientific
memorabilia quite as notable, and
probably, on the whole, much more
complete than any antecedent exhibi
tion .
England and America have had nu
merous opportunities, of which they
have taken full advantage, of showing
to the world their capabilities and re
sources in this sphere of iudutsri.il ef
fort ; and heretofore the race has been
so fur to the swift,- that the right of
England to pre-eminence has hardly
been challenged* It is a fact much too
notorious to be gainsaid, that the pride
ol place enjoyed by Great Britain has
made her disregard the threats of for
eign eompetion, and it is perhaps due
more to their incuiar prejudice and
contempt of than to aught
else, that English firms have come so
far short of their best efforts in the pres
ent exhibition. But the extent and
character of foreign competition have
been brought very near and made
uncomfortably apparent to the English
industrials, who have never until now
ceased to believe in their manifest des
tiny as “the workshop of the world,’'
and must, unless they are as far from
wisdom as an ostrich, persuade them
their energies must more than ever be
taxed to breast the rising tide of for
eign competition.
In the printing department the new
composing machine works wonders.—
The apparatus is not unlike a piano,
aud is composed of a series of vertical
tubes placed side by side: each tube is
filled with one kind of letter. These
tubes all converge at the lower end
into one pipe, which abuts upon a hor
izontal trench. The compositor has
before him a keyboard, upon the notes
of which the letters of tho alphabet
are marked. When.he strikes one of
the notes the corresponding tube opens
and drops the letter indicated into the
trench, where a special mechanism ad
vances it to the place it is intended to
occupy. Ttie types then pass into the
justifier, a kind of movable metalic
frame, of a size suitable to the line
which is to be pointed. Each line,
when comp osed,is lowered to give place
to the succeeding one. , The superior
rapidity of this method is evident. By |
the Usual mode a skillful compositor
Can turn off 1300 letteis in an hour;
by this machine it is possible to make
230,400 botes in the Same time ; but
allowing for the fatigue to the fingers
it is no exaggeration to put the aver
age at 60,000 notes per hour. There
is, of course, the difficulty of reading
the manuscript, which delays the ra
pidity of the work ; but even if the
machine made no more than 6000 notes
it would be a great saving of time and
labor. The operation of replacing the
letters in their respective tubes is per*
formed by a machine having an exact
reverse arrangement to the preceding
one. The edmposing and distributing
machines which* under the name of
Chambers, have now been brought to
great perfection, are now in success
ful use in the office of the London
Times.
A good story is told of ja Washing
tonian who hired a conveyance during
the recent strike of cabmen and drivers.
Upon the man saying “It is 100 sous
per hour,''’ the hirer replied, “All right,
drive on/’ lie kept the cab four hours,
and then having finished his business,
asked the driver how ? much he had to
pay him. “Four hours,’’ replied the
man, “that will be 20 francs/ “Then
drive me [to the prefecture of the po
lice, ’’ replied tne Washingtonian. The
driver, thunderstruck, endeavored to
make concessions * On the way to the
station he stopped the cab at a tobac
conist’s, and got out to gel a cigar.—
Ilis purchase finished he left the shop
and looked for his cab, when, behold,
cab, driver and horse had all disap
peared, and Monsieur had had the use
of a carriage four hours without its
costing him a sou. Alpha.

Six Months in tho Chain-gang
or $25 and Cost.
The UawklnSvillc* Dispatch says:
‘Jeff Johnson, the colored boy who
fired the shot that entered the residence
of Mr. G. P. Woods on the night of the
4th ult., was arraigned before county
Judge H. H. Whitfield on Thursday
last. According to the prisoner's own
admission—the only evidence in the
case—that he was shooting at a dog,
it was evident that he could not con
victed for intentional or malicious
shooting, and Capt. J. 11. Martin, the
prosecuting attorney, decided to bring
suit against Jeff for carrying conceal
ed weapons. After a hearing of the case
and a plea of guilty from the prisoner,
J udge Whit field sentenced him to serve
a teim of six months in the chain g'ang
or pay a fine of $25 and costs, amount
ing In all to about $32.50. Jeff suc
ceeded in raising a sufficient sqni to
pay the fine, and will probably be more
particular m the use of his litlle pistol
hereafter/
Tiic Yellow Fever Plague.
Those who ao not realize the extent
and horror of tho yellow feVer visita
tion in the West, have only to consult
the statistics of tins mysterious and
deadly 1 disease.
Carefully compiled calculations make
the aggregate deaths foot up over four
thousand. Seldom, indeed, has such
feartul mortality, outright, lean re
corded, even after the most sanguina
ry conflict upbn a stricken field.
The destroying angel has appeared
among our distressed fellow-citizens,
and thousands have succumbed under
the stroke of his relentless scythe.
Nor is the end yet. Long weeks
will probably elapse before a friendly
freeze can be expected, to put a quie
tus to the plague in New Orleans and
many points in Mississippi and Louis"
iana. Let us not be weary in well do
ing, Lut continue our benefactions to
the sick and suffering until God in His
infinite mercy brings them renewed
health aud prosperity.— Tel. <b Mess.

A Strange Story*.
The Buena ViSta Argus tells it os,
follows :
Mr. Letvis Webb in our town is very
strangely affected. For several years
lie appeared p iralvz- and in bis I'm t and
legs for several ye aVs he wont oh
crutcl.es, but Fu the past eight he Inis
been walking with a stick. He says
he con’d drive a knife through his foot
and not feel it ; that when he drives
his foot agaiust any object he knows
it just as he knows when he strikes a
stick against a substance, JL>v the re
sistance offered only, and not by feel
mg. He frequently blisters his feet in
walking, but knows nothing of it until
the blisters burst. He bathes his feet
often—sometimes in cold ; sometimes
jn hot water. He cannot tell by the
f cling in the feet whether the water is
hot or coldj Thus he had lived for
eight years sometimes Walking about
and often in bed. Now the strange
part of the story is that when a cat
touches his foot ; whether bare or with
sock oh, sends instantly prickly s n
sations all through his foot. 11a may
be blindfolded, but can instantly tell
the touch of a however slight,
whether by day or nighty expecting or
not expecting the touch,
UNPARALLELED OUTRAGE.
A Harmless Old Gentleman ol
Seventy and One of His Grand
Children Shot by Masked
Villains.
We clip the following account of a
dastardly outrage from the Dublin
Post :
“OnJast Friday night seven masked
men rode up to the house ot Mr. Wil
lard Grayq, living two, miles east of town
and hailed. As he stepped out on
the porch, they fired several shots at
him and riddled the house with bullets
A rifle ball and four small shot struck
the old in one leg and one or two
small sshot struck one of his grand
children, who wa* inside the house, in
the back. There is no cine to the
perpetrators of this shameless horror.
But this matter should be looked into,
and the villains should every one be
made* to pull hemp. Mr, Gray is a
harmless old m m of about seventy
years of age. The only thing that can
bo said against him is that he has two
, or three disreputable daughters, ’
