THE EASTMAN TIMES.

THE WAR i N THE EAST.
We sec by cablegrams ad telegrams
to some of our able exchanges, that
war exists between England and Af
ghanistan. It s eii s tliat Ameei
Shtre Ali pref rred Russian to Eng
jsb friendship. He cord.ally welcom

To most t>( our readers Afghanistan
is a country not very familiar. It is in
India, huul to be about 600 miles
square, mountainous, and extremely
coal ; on the mountains snow is rarely
nbs nt. The population of all Afghan
istan is tail to be 4,000,000, genuine
A'ghans beii g about half that number.
'lhe Katirs, Pathans, Fajiksand other
al id tribes make up the balance, and
they are said to be tuibulont, brutal,
pas donate and vaiiq ami aie Moham
medans. The Ameer is a dictator lor
life over a military aristocracy.
The revenue ot the country is from
$2,500,000 to $8,000,000 a year. The
main military lorce is the untrained
but hardy and wailike levies that the
sirdars or tribal produce on
occasion.
The European army in India num
bers 64000, the native force 128,000- —
a total of 192,000 English troops.
The lot egoieg facts and figures w
gnthi red irom our able contemporary,
the Atlanta Constitution. The con
clusion of the article is as follows :
'I he ab lity of the English to over
come the Afghans, and their natural
and climatic advantages would not be
doubted if—this is thought to be an
unusually large sized “i/'—if the sub
jects of ihe queen in the l’unj mb re
main qu et and Russia keeps her hands
off. Uu account ot the elevation of
the country all operations must cease
in the course of another mouth. It is
therefore likely that the English com
mander expects to do more this year
than to secure advantageous positions
for a vig rous campaign in the spring.
Tne troops could thus hold ihe passes
and be where fevers would not deci
mate their ranks, the IYshuwur valley
being deadlier than bullets. Russia
will do no hing this year. W hat she
will do when Cabul and ILnatare in
danger is, alter all, the puzzling fea
ture of the problem. She is now an
unofficial ally of the amen*. She cre
ated the present difficulty, and her
officers are going to Cabul as volun
teers, jmt as they went to Bucharest.
She cannot well afford to let Shore
Ali be crushed, and England cannot
maintain her supremacy over the In
dian princess unless she rectifies her
western frontier by annexing tin*
mountain claim that her armies are
now trying to force.
Georgia’s Progress.
Taking into cousideta;ion the hard -
ness of times, Georgia seems to be
getting along very well.
To be sure there is a decrease in
the grand lax list of the State ; last
year the reported total was $235,-
659,530, or $10,194,920 less than hi
1870, but this is explained hy the
shrinkage of valued. In live stock
Georgia was $970,606 richer in 1877
than in 1876 ; in farming and median,
ieal tools, $458,851 ; and in l onds an 1
stocks, $1,454,062. Population has
slightly increased, in spite of the stea
dy drain of the lexan emigration fe
ver ; whereas in 1876 there were in
the Slate 204,507 men who paid poll
tax, last year there were 207,815. —
The sum invested in cotton manufacto
ries in 1877 was $2,739,200 ; the school
tund was $150,225. The State tax was
50 cents on SIOO, and the average
county rate about the same The col
ored people of the State returned taxa

value ol $5,430,844.
Ace. Tiling to a Washington special
lie st Butler is now beginning to re -

Congress con- ected with the party in

never allowed much to grow un

BILL ARP’S CHAT.
He Confines Himself to Matters
of Practical Moment.
From the Constitution.
Ami still they are singing the same
old song, ‘Hard times, and p -verty is
all owin to the eo nipt legislation of
the party in power.’ For thirty years
I have heard of it every, political cam
pain, and the old men say they have
h aid of it regerlarly for half a cen
tury. I wonder why tho feller who
first invented the idea didnt take out
a copyright. Ivc no doubt its been
ilie truth all the time and is the truth
now, but whats the use in our great
orators and statesmen telliu it so oiten
to the people of Atlanta. Every lug
speech that I’ve read 1 itely in your
valuable paper Ins had that for the
burden of its song, and they circle it
round with a hitalooten liulo and
spangle it with a few patriotic flurish*
* sand then the boys holler hooraw
and hooray, and throw up their hats,
and rap the floor with iheir shoe h els
and wolkin slicks, and the kin
show wi ids no with prolonged ap
plans ; nexi mornin ihe Constitution
publishes the speech, and at every
other lino puts in ‘cheers' or‘applaus/
and the editor says it was an oncom
mo i, great speech, and several people
who aiut got much else to do call round
and congratulate the distinguished
orator and swear it was the greatest
speech of iiis lile, and shore enuf he
begins to believe it was and will speak
agin in two weeks ll anybody invites
him.
My fear is that our great men are
speakin too much unless they had
somethin original and pekuliar to
sp aK abou*. They are mukin them-
S'lvisa little 100 common. Its all
very well to amuse the boys occasion
ally, but you see theres a few men
Scattered round over the country, and
not being present to catch the animal
magnetism of ihe occasion they read
over the speech and wonder every
two seckunds what made them Atl mta
geese cackle so at the end of every
sentence. Snades of CaUioun and
Webster ! why dont < ur experienced
statesmen c mdescend to tell the peo
ple something they dm/t know ? Gen
eral Toombs says it costs 300 millions
a year to run the government, and it
oughten to cost but GO. Everybody
knows that. He says the people are
downtrodden and oppressed, poor,
crushed, mashed flat, and its all oweii
to the rottenness ot the republican
party. AVell, now, Mr. Toombs, if you
had showd the pe pic how that was
just before the late elections, there
wcuhlent have been an mdep ndent
elected in Georgy. But the people
dont see it. My nabors are all m dlin
poor men, but they dont feel oppressed.
Nobo iy aiut run over ora that they
know of. T.iey’ve got go and little
farms and make average crops, and
their cattle and hogs are fit aid they
are passively content with their cir
cumstances, and no federal tax-collec
tor conns along once a yen- calliu for
money. Thai last is what gits em.—
Then, whats the use in tellin the peo
ple they are oppressed without ex
plain in to em, calmly and sob ;rly, how
it is. These glitteriu generalities don’t
amount to anything. On the contrary
theres a heap of folks who think the
bill of indictment is too big fbr tne evi.
deuce, and they get sorter Hazy, and
when an independent comes along and
abuses the organized democracy he
falls into that line and supports him.
You see, there aint one in a hundred
that knows just where tne oppression
comes in. They know all about the
300 millions bein spent, or stole, or
squandered, but they don’t have any
idee that a dollar of it comes out of
them. They knew all about the cus
tom houses and the poi ts of entry, and
the tariff, and government duty, and
have a general notion that by some
liokus pokus the furritiers who shipped
goo is over here paid all the money,
and it don't make much difference
whether it cost 300 millions or 3,000
millions to run ihe old rotten concern.
Why, old man Gatewood is a good
man rnd a thri'ty man, and is right
smartly ahead of the average farmer
in sense and laruiti, and he told me a
year ago he didn’t see what our pto
pie had to do with the government ex
penses, for they had never claimed a
dollar uft- n him and 1 told Judge
Wright at out it, and ho lifted up his
voice and--well, he didn’t weep, but
he said to me with emphatic feel in :
“It ll you, Arp, thi- ignorance is
amaz>n, and I’m airaid its the only
safety-valve that keeps the govern
ment filler from explodiu. If the peo*
pie knew how much money was filched
from era every day through the silent
and stealthy operations of ti e tariff,
they would rs.‘ up as one man aid
shoulder th*dr rifles and shot-guns and
overturn the lepublic betore they
would submit to it. They don't knew
that they are paying part of tit is 300
millions every lime they buy a yard
of cloth or a pair of shoes or a pound
of Soda or a set of knives and forks or
a paper ot pins. They can't form any
conception how r much cheaper every
thing they have to buy would be if the
gov* rnment w as honestly administered
and the taxes collected just like th;
states collect them.'
Jos so. Thats taikiu out in meetm,
a id if tliis 300 millions cai/t be stop-*
but keeps on gittiu bigger every
year, why dent our big men stimulate
a change of program ? Why dont
they talk about direct taxation! The
people will stand it it theyll show em
how it works. If each state is assess
ed its part to run the general govern*
meet, the Sam ■ officers that collect the
state and county tax could collect that,
couldnt they ? Suppose it did take a
million from Georgy every year, the
people would then know where the
money cum from and where it went to,
and a mail wouldnt go to congress the
second time at 5,000 a y< ar and back
salary grabs thrown in, would he?
Tiie books say that our merchants
bought about fifty million dollars worth
of go >ds last year and that the average
ta iff oil em was 20 p r cent—well, if
our uart of the tax was sl,ooo,ooo,and
we buy the goods for lorty mi lions #
dont we save nine millions Or there
abouts ? Tiiats what I want to know,
tnd it it is so aint it about time to
ciringe the program? Mr. Calhoun
talked tor it, and wrote for it, and
worked for it all his life, but the Yanky
nation wanted protection for their
manufactures and his doct.iue of free
trade and direct taxation was buried
with him. Did his mantle fall on no*
body. Bill Arp,
N. B.—Toll your foiks when they
work lor railroads not to charge so
much and ii wont attract so much at*

it, they wont lose so much.
The following sad accident is mcn
tianed by the Forest News :
‘A teirible accident happened in the
settlement near Randolph’s st re, in
tliis county, last week, b> T which Mr
J 1) Irwin lost a child, aged nine or
ten months, which was burned todeath.
From the best information we can <>b_
t the following are the cornet cir
cumstances :
It seen s that the mother of the child
left it in charge of its little s ster
while she went the spring, and while
gone the child by some means got so
near to the fire that its clothing caught.
The little gir! ran for the mother at
once, but before she could get there
the child was too badly burnt that it
died after a severe suffering of twelve
hours. This sad affair should be a
warning to mothers about this too
common hal it of leaving children to
take care of their lit tie ones, especial*
ly in the winter time, when fires are
necessary and open fireplaces arc
used.

from his mill pond near tliis plane on

from Friday to Saturday night near
one thousand pounds of fine fish were

thing of mild and modest beauty, but

when he had sufficiently victimized his

The corn crop of the United States
constitutes a wide basis of prosperity.
The amount of corn exported in the
season of 186869 was 7,017,000 bush
els, and the following year but 1 392.-
000 bushels. The export for 1877-78
will probably rise above 85,461 ush
els. In that "time the tot and of wheat
and corn export has swollen from 38, >
759,000 t-> 177,595,000 bushels. The
acreage of this year in corn reaches
544,369,000, and the yield probably not
less than 1,500,000,000 bushels.
Letters from Sagua and Cardenas
Cuba, of th" fastest date speak of a
disease analogous to yellow fever that
is prevailing tatally iu those districts.
The disease originated in Colon, and
is supposed to have been generated
by a vast quantity of decomposed veg
etable matter scsttered over th- district
by the recent heavy inundations.
Marriages were never so numerous
