THE EASTMAN TIMES. M. L, BURGH, Editor & Proprietor THURSDAY, JANUARY 23, 1870. OUR SENSATIONAL PRESS. We arc astonished at the many effu sions ot our ab’e contemporaries on the Hill-Murphy embrogli *. We see it stated that the Democratic Party in the State will be divided —demoralized, that Murphy ought to be dismissed from the service of the State peremp torily, that Hi l ought to resign his place in the Senate in lavor of Gov Colquitt that the wliole affair should liave been submitted to &c. In fact so much Ins been written that there is scarcely uu asj e:t of the case left fur dwcussi jii. We have said nothing about it here tofore, simply because we deemed it wisest to ke p silent. At first it was suspected that corruption had entered the highest ufiiee of the State, and threatened the life and existence of our present administration, but a legisla tive; investigation developed the fact that the Executive was above reproach* The report was that Murphy, a clerk in tlie Treasurers office, received SBOOO for obtaining the Governor's indorse ment to the bonds of the Northeastern Railroad ; that he fortified himself with the opinions oflegislators that it was lawful for the Governor thus to indorse the bonds. Mr. Hill charges this to be crime in Murphy of the gravest char acter. —an offense in Guv. Colquitt not to dismiss him ; that the majority re port of the legislative committee is a stain and disgrace on the fair fame of Georgia; and these charges have been take.*, up and magnified and dwelt up on in a manner that indicates that the State of Georgi i is beset by a mon strous crime “of such hideous mien that to be hated needs but to be seen/ threatening her political life. While we deplore an act that in the slightest m inner to eompromse the honor of the State still we are confident that the S’.ato of Georgia is able and willing to condemn and punish any one, high or low, in the Treasury of the State or in the U. S. Senate, that would be guilty of the crime ; and that Georgia, in her grand and glorious strength would rise and shake off any incubus that threat ened her virtue. We are satisfied be yond all question that our Executive, legislative and judicial departments of the State are eminently competent to discharge the functions of their respec tive departments ; and if there is any thing in the conduct of these officials of a criminal character, a punishment will be meted out commensurate with the gravity of the offense. We would sugg< st that the Georgia press keep silent about the matter and not dam age the State by unwise and unpatri otic articles. THE WORKMAN IS KNOWN BY HIS CHIPS. In going from place to place over tire public highways, how ca?>ily can the active, energetic farmer be pointed out by the wayfaivr as he journeys along. It is quite common when trav eling, even in a strange settlement, ami passing some place, to hear the remark, ‘this is a live fellow/ or a ‘good farmer/or a ‘working man/ or some such expression. Llis houses, sheds, fences, etc., are in good repairs* gates are all hung,hisdwelling though it may be of logs, presents an air of ease and eomfovz, his stock at a glance tells of their attention and treatment; in short, the general fitness of things about the place is a fine index to the character and habits of the man who occupies it. lie is industrious, and generally not addicted to intemper ance, and seldom to any of the other leading vices. He is always busy—a very essential element to succsss. How different with his neighbor who started out, perhaps, under more aus picious surroundings has idled much of his time, perhaps has imbibed too freely of the poisonous cup, and it maybe is already becoming more and more neglectful of his business and bis family. Ilis houses are not so comfort able, bis fences are racked and rotten, and his p’aee presents a general dilap idated appearance. lly these and similar “chips" this class of workmen are recogniz 'd. Our condition as a country and a people call louder and stronger for more ac* t'vitv and energy, and for a vigorous performance to do the right and eschew the evil. THE MEXICAN DOLLAR. Since we c one to think about it, we did promise some of the buys to have this troublesome, cheating, swindling coin sent ba< k to Mexico. We are tired of it, and think it is too far from home. And we move now that the last one of them be returned to Mexi co, and we hope our banking institu tions, wh : eh were instrumental in in troducing and sending out tins con. wdl second the motion and lend us their aid in this laudable undertaking. Last Sunday, the 19th inst., wasth • DQuiversaiy of Gen. Lee’s death, DEPARTMENT OF AGRICUL TURE. Commissioner Janes, in a supple mental report—lß7B.—issued from the Department of Agriculture, under date of the lltli of January, 1879, says : “ 1 he way for farmers to indVe ise the price of cotton is to redact the cost of making it. Tnere is more money in cotton at 8 cents that cost 7 cents to produce it, than in cotton at 12 cents that cost 11 cents. Cotton costing 7 cents to produce it, means plenty of provisions, plenty of fine,healthy stock, no debts made, improving soil, improv e I methods, good farming. Cotton costing 11 cents implies, bought corn and bacon, debt at high inteiest, high priced fertilizers, high-priced labor, neglected resources—poor farmi-.g When cotton commands a high price, the temptation to increase the area de voted to it, and to diminish the area in corn, oats, wh?at, etc., is very strong, and heretofore very few fanners have withstood it. An increase in area of cotton involves decrease in area of food crops, decrease in number of hogs, sheep and cattle, increased de mand for higher priced labor, imreas ed demand for higher priced mules, etc., etc. Every fanner knows by ex perience or observation the dotails and results of such policy. Fanners cannot afford to change their policy or their system with the changes that occur in the cotton mar ket. It is very easy to change from a self-sustaining systemto a speculative farming in anticipation of high prices ; but when cotton falls in price below the increased cost of producing it,even a single year's operations has often re sulted in bankruptcy ; and when low prices prevail for several years in suc cession it becomes impossible to pro’ ceed and very difficult to retrace steps and adopt the old and only wise sys tem. If the argument is good against an increased area in cotton when the price is high, it applies with tenfold force when the price is low, as at present ; but as there will probably be no in crease in the area planted in cotton in 1879, the object in presenting these views is to induce farmers to restrict the area still further, to prepare and cultivate better, and by every means to diminish the cost of production. As has often been remarked, the farmer should aim to make his cotton crop the measure of his profits. He should, therefore, produce an abundant supply of everything consumed on the farm, or such a surplus of one or more as will supply those articles of consump tion which cannot bo produced in this climate. To do this, he will be com pelled so to diversify his crops and to increase and improve his flocks, that, not only will a reduction of the ana in cotton be unavoidable, but the chances of a total or even s rious fail ure will be much reduced. SUNDAY LEDGER. We have received the first number of the above named'paper, published in Macon, Ga., E. P. Speer, editor.— The number before us is a handsomely printed eight page sheet, and is brim ming full of news and interesting read ing matter. Success to the new enter prise. The pretense of the Republicans that every colored man who votes the Dem ocratic ticket must necessarily be the victim of intimidation lias always af forded a great deal of amusement to those who have seen Democratic ne groes with their hands full of Demo cratic tickets going around electioneer ing among their colored friends ; but the most ludicrous result of this pre tense is the proposition of Senator Windom to colonize negroes who vote the Democratic ticket in Republican communities. Such an exhibition of partisan imbeclity on the part of a man who occupies the Ingh position of Senator is in the nature of a sort <f broad, but melancholy burlesque. The colored people in Georgia—those who arc of any account as citizens—would hoot at Windom's proposition; unless, indeed the great man intends to make the propositions of his bill mandatory- The annual circular of Dun, Barlow k Cos., s’ates that the failures iu the United States in the year 1878 were 10,478, with liabilities equal to $234,- 000,000. This is an increase of 1,571 in failures and $10,000,000 in liabili ties over the previous year, and the aggregate of liabilities is even greater than it was in 1873. One chief cause for this excess was the fact that the bankrupt law went out of op ration in August last, and a great many person-; and firms tailed in the early part ol the past year solely to be able to avail themsi lvcs of ils provisions. Associate Justice Hunt, of the U S Supreme Conn, died on last Thursday nitrht at ids home in Washington.— His place will probably be filled by Stanley Mathews or Attorney-General Devons. The present low price of cotton has induced a Russ'au firm to order at Charleston, S, C,, 3,930 bales for direct shipment. SUICIDE OF COL. It. W. JEMISON. How the Deed was Committed— The Reasons which Led to It. The community of Macon was terri bly shock- and on Thursnay afternoon by the intelligence that Col. R. W. Jemi son, an old and respected citizeen and city-attorney, had taken his own life at his family apartments, near the cor ner of Second and Cherry streets. The Telegraph and Messenger brings the sad details at length, from which we quote: THE FATAL SHOT. “About two o'clock those near the corner of Cherry and Second streets were startled by the report of a pistol, the sound of which came from trie stairway leading to the apartments of Col. Jemison and family. Several rushed up the stairway immediately, and came face to face with death. The unfortunate gentleman was lying on his back in the passage way, on which the suite of rooms opened. lie was stretched at full length, one foot drawn slightly up, one hand across his breast and one lower down the body. From each side ot his head, from two ghast ly orifices, where the bul et had plow ed its path, the blood and brain were oozing, and bad formed a large pool on the floor. Under his left foot almost concealed was a silver-mounted Derrin ger pistol. The body lay with the head toward the street entrance. Res piration had not qu te ceased when he was reached, and he was removed to his bedroom and expired in about 12 minutes, unconscious after the fatal discharge. CAUSE OF THE RASH DEED. It seems that Col. Jemison has been for some time in bad health, and im perceptibly reason has been losing its sway. This, however, was not notice able by his most intimate friends at the ti nc. lie has been melancholy and depressed for some time, although to outward appearances, that flow ot spir its which marked the man was not wanting, and to within an hour of his death lie was telling pleasant anecdotes to his friends. Yesterday lie partook of a very slight dinner, rose suddenly from the table and walked into the hall. Here he drew ihc pistol from his pocket, and without any premoni t:on to his friends, fired. Mrs. Jemison who turned to look as she heard the report, saw him fall, and immediately rushed to h : s assistance, and was the first to reach his side. Sue has regard ed him as panially deranged for a week or more. his son's testimony before the coroner’s jury gives the affair its real true explanation, doubt less : “Mr. S. H. Jemison sworn, and says that he knew the pistol to be one that he had in his possession ten or twelve months. It has been iri the drawer of his bureau fot the 1-st four or five week-’, I noticed that it was gone out of my drawer on last Tuesday or Wednesday, and made inquiry of moth er and the persons about the house as to where it was, stating that it did not belong to me, but was a borrowed one and lor that reason I was especially concerned about its being misplaced, and stated that it belonged to Samuel Townsley. Her answer was in sub stance that I need not give myself any trouble about it, as Townsley under stood whole it was, 1 was not espe cially concerned about it. lie had been particularly disturbed about my recent difficulty, and I thought he had only taken it out of my drawer, think ing he had thereby relieved me of a temptation to commit violence on som ■ person. This I think was purely in imagination, as were many things 1 have noticed in the recent past. [Pistol was shown witness.] If this is the pis tol found lying by him, I have not the slightest doubt that the result was the work of his own hand. I know of no living creature of any age or sex, of any race or color, of any shade of polit ical opinion who entertains the least animosity toward him, and I cannot suppose fora moment that any peisou sought to take his life, further than himself. For a considerable time he has been morbidly morose, and beyond any question, to my mind, non compos mentis. I know of no reason other than the ordinary vexation of life that could contribute to bring about this mental condition. For forty years I have always understood, and since I have been old enough to remember, I have known of my own kuowledge that he has been the most terri de sufferer from that frightful disease, dyspepsia, that I have ever known or heard of.— For fifteen or sixteen years it has been a complete mystery to me how he ever lived. Witness described the manner in which the deceased was affected ' Alter the evidence was considered the jury made up the following ver dict : We, the jury, find that Co 1 . R. W. Jemison, deceased, came to his death by a pistol shot wound through his head, fired by his own hand, caused by tempo’ary liberation oi mind. SKETCH OF THE DECEASED Robert W. Jemison was bom on th“ 21st of Apiil, 1820 ; was reared in this county and educated at Ogle thorpe University, bearing off the first I honors of his class ; shortly afterwards he was married in Bal twin county and removed to Monroe county, and alter wards to Ouchiti parish, Louisiana, where he practiced law and attended to a large planting interest until his entire property was swept away by the effects of the late war. After the close ol the war he removed with his family to this city; became senior part ner in the practice of his profession with the late Capt. Samuel Iluuter, the father of Capt. Hunter having married the widow ot ll< nry Jemison. Mr. R. W. Jemison has pursue! the practice of law s nee his residence here, and has been the attorney of the city fu tile last lour years, and was recently elected to the same office by the pres ent council for the next term of four years. Col. Jemison was in his sixtieth year. While he resided in Loui-iana he was a large planter, and always took an active and interested part in poli tics. Ho alwaysstumped his district for the Democracy, and canvassed north Louisiana with Hon. Judah P. Benja min when Wickliffe was elected gov ernor of that State. He was solicitor general of his circuit for two terms. — He was a member of a number of stale conventions, and was also register of the land office under President Buch anan. The remains were taken to Mil ledgeville for interment. The city coun cil of Macon will pay suitable honor to the memory of their late associate. A Mammoth Farm. From the Scientific American. A correspondent of the Troy Tunes, traveling in Dakota, writes from Fargo a town, he says, now only eight years old, containing 6,000 inhabitants, de scribing the cultivated farm of William Darlymple, containing an undivided estate of 50,000 acres, extending 12 miles along the fertile bottom lands ot a most beautiful river, and then back into the interior 11 miles more, the whole covering an area over 30 square miles. Of this, .20,000 acres were last year sown in wheat, wh ch has yielded 250,- 000 bushels as reward :or the husband man's toil. The soil of this Red River farm is peculiarly rich, and adapted to the production of just the cereal culti vated. The upper surface is an allu vial deposit of great fertility under which is a deposit of marl, containing in largo quantities the phosphates ami silicates needed in the format : on of the beiry and the stalk of wheat. Of.course it would he impossible to operate such a. farm from one head quarters, so the land is apport oned in to sub-divisions of 2,000 acres each, every one of which is presided over by a superintendent, who is under the di rection and.orders of the owner. Each chief overseer has a nice h >uso, in most cases handsomely fitted up and finish ed, in several instincts, in most excel lent taste. Near the superintendent's house is the hands’ boarding house, where all the harvesters board. Back of these buildings are located the gran aiies and stables, and, a little further removed, the machine shops, engine rooms and windmills. All the build ings follow a plain ,but attractive style of architecture, and answer every pur pose intended. Each subdivision has the same set of buildings, and is op erated quite the same way. To run the farm it requires the ser vice of 450 men and over 300 horses and mules ; to keep the accounts, three book-keepers and two cashiers are kept busy r . Water is pumped bv wind mills several miles back into the inte rior from the liver. 73 Wood’s reap ers and binders are used in the harvest and pile up yellow sheaves'at the rate of 1,000 acres pirn day. During the entire harvest season last year, they were retarded only one half day by inclement weather. The grain is sep arated from the straw by 18 steam threshers, which puts it in the bins at the rate of 1,000 bushels per day. Governor Yance, who is to take the seat now filled by Senator Menimon, is no tyro in legislation. He has serv ed in the legislature of his State and in the Federal House of Represent a lives, where he was gaining a high position when the war broke out. He was elected to the U. S Senate in 1870 but was not allowed to take his seat. He will go in this time, and it will not be long before the people of this coun try will know a great deal more of Zebulon Baird Vance than they now do. It is averred that the five cent nickle costs only a cent and a quarter, and they were legalized for the benefit of the owners of a New Jersey nickle mine.
