The Atlauta Herald has the following in refer
enee to the health of that city: “ This city con
tinues entirely free from cholera. There are cases
of ordinary diarhoea, disiutery and cholera morbus
lu our midst, but not more than usual. It ia al
most certaiu that if the cholera comes here at all,
it will make its appearance through some pas
senger from ihe infected towns of Tennessee, and
if the proper precautions are taken, there is not
any reason why the disease should spread.
The Telegaaph and Messenger says: “Mr.
Wm. Simpson, President of the National Colum
barian Society, has written to the Secretaryof the
Georgia State Agricultural Society asking some
questions respecting the coming State Fair. He
thinks of attending the Fair, and says he can show
almost every variety of poultry lor which premi
ums arc otfeisd, besides a gieat number of varie
ties not enumerated iu the premium list. He can
also bring some forty or fitly varieties of pigeons.
“ Mr. Simpson ought to be eucouragtd to come
to tLe Fair. Tee premiums offered tor poultry
are the most liberal ever offered in the State, and
the gentleman may rest assured that he will be
courteously received here, and every possible fa
cilliy given him for the exhibition ot his fowls."
The Beauregard Manifesto. —The Beaure
gard manifesto msy be very well, but at this dis
tance it seems to be too exclusively occupied with
the ntgroes, and too profuse iu p.omises. The
colored citizens are entitled to jus'ice and kind
ness, but there is no wisdom in courting their
political co-operation by offering them half oi the
public offices. Such an oiler is sheer demagogisn .
Who has any authority to bind the voters of the
Btate to recognize such an arrangement ? What
sane man expects that in any near election the
party opposed to the Grant-Kellogg usurpation
will be composed in equal proportions of the two
races? If ose-fourth of the opposition party
should consist of colored citizens, and three
tourths ot white c’liz-.-ns, what equity would there
be in giving halt the nominations to the former
even if they were even in capacity and education?
bo tar as mere chances of office go, the negroes
have nothing to gain by deserting a party of blacks
with a sprinkling of whites for a party ol whites
with a sprinkling of blacks. It sceme to us im
politic as well as degrading to appeal to anything
bat the good sense and right feeling of the colored
foters.—*Yw Terd WW*
A Reminiscence.
Fifty } ears or more ago, Monrce c iunty was one
of the rich, fertile counties of land recently ac
quired from the Indians. A hardy, industrious
population were rapidly planting themselves upon
her rich soil, and laying bread and deep the
foundations of that intelligence and prosperity
that has made the county since one of the most
noted and influential in the State. In the ex
treme aoath-weat corner of the county, on a
beautiful plateau of lands, covered with oak,
hickory, walnut and poplar, indicating its superior
quality, at the crossing of two reads that then
threaded the forest, an Irish gentleman, named
Cullodeu, erected a small log store-room, end
oflered for sale those few articles of necessity
which were indispensable to the pioneer. Soon
the small nucleus of asettllement gathered; tbe
fine lands, pare water, aud health of the neigh
borhood attracted enterprise and capital, and in a
few years a beautiful, rural village sprai g into
life in the wilderness. Bat the settlers desired
something more thau the mere amassing of
money. A church lot was laid oil and a
comfortable wooden building was erected.
Two large, comfortable framed buildings for
academies were constructed ; excellent teachers
were secured, and great interest was manifested
in their encouragement and support. Milton
Wilder was one of the earliest teachers, who I
remember there, and this pure and noble-hearted
man, who spent nearly half a century in the
school-room, wa3 oue of those early ttaehurs who
inaugurated the educational interests of the place.
Hundreds now live in Georgia who love and re
vere his memory. After him followed Early
Cleveland, living yet to a good old age, in the
county, assisted in the female department by his
wife, tbe sister of Mr. Wilder, who showed largely
in her character the sterling worth and virtue of
her brother. To protect the morals of the place
and the schools from its baneful influence, early
in its bistory an act of the Legislature was pro
cured, prohibiting the retail of ardent spirits
within a mile of the place. The place grew and
flourished; the ccbocU prospered; new educa
tional interests were developed, and for many
years it was a community noted for intelligence
and sobriety, and superior educational advan
tages. But my mind turns to the dawning of
these advantages—some forty years ago. Boys
then played under those beautiful oaks; drank
from that bright spring near the school, at the
foot of the sloping hill, that have since made their
mark in our State’s history. I might name a long
catalogue of men who have become famous in the
pulpit, at the bar, and in our State and National
Councils, who were in their boyhood, happy at
tendants under the pupilage of the venerated
Wilder and others. Just now a lew of them
occnpy prominent positions in the public eye.
There is his Excellency, Jas. M. Smith, present
Governor; his Honor, Robert P. Trippe, Judge
of 'he Supreme Court; Honorable Thomas Nor
wood, U. S. Senator; Attorney General N. J.
Hammond, Esq., all bear in fresh memory the old
scenes and surroundings of this lovely village,
where first they learned to read, write and cipher
It is a remarkable coincidence this small vil
lage should thus have, in early life, prepared for
the world and its highest houers in our State, so
many men who now fill so large a space in the
public eye. All honor to the early pioneers and
educators of a place who thus when they have
passed away, are living in the honors and fame of
those now in public station. —Griffin Star.
Railway Enterprise. —Steps are being taken
at Chicago, as we have before mentioned, to or
ganise an airline railroad from that city to the
Atlantic coast, Savannah, Port Royal and Char
leston being the objective points. The distance
from Chicago to Savannah is seveu hundred and
sixty-3even miles, while the shortest line by rail
way in operation between those points exceeds
one thousand miles. By the new line, the North
west would be brought in direct commercial com
munication with the important harbors of the
places above-mentioned. The question of build
ing this line of railway, 6ays the Chicago Inter-
Ocean. has been sufficiently canvassed to ascer
tain that the people along the whole line are
deeply interested in the project, and are ready to
grant every aid in their power to enconrage it.
The right of way, with few exceptions, will be do
nated. It is also shown, irom official statistical
reports, that the population and resources ot the
line, in taxable wealth, are abundant to support
the road and make it a paying institution Among
the prospective advantages claimed for the road is
the tropical trade which would naturally find its
way inland through the harbors abovc-meatioued.
The climatic advantages of the new route offer
great inducements to grain dealers. In view of
its great importance, as a national and interna
tional channel of communication, application wi'l
be made to the next Congress for a charter such
as would give the enterprise a national character.

Asiatic Barbarity.—A dispatch from bliang
hai giving some particulars ot the capture by the
Imperial Chinese forces of the city of Tali fu,
capital of the Mohammedan State in the Province
of Yunman, Southwestern China, says the.most
frightful scenes were witnessed in the conquered
city upon the entry of the Emperor's army The
victorious forces fell upon their captives and
massacred 20.000 of them. The Sultan poisoned
Limself, preferring death by his own hands to
falling into the power of his enemies.
Tali-fn is situated in the Southwestern part of
the Province of Yunman, China. It is densely
populated, and was once the capital of one of the
two kingdoms into which Yunman was divided
during the reign of Kublai Khan. The Province
ot Yunman is the stronghold of the Mohomme
dans. These people have for years defied the
power of the Imperial Government, which they
declare is Pagan, and unfit to tule the followers
of the Prophet of God. They have been able to
maintain a quasi government of their own for
several years. Their chief, who has just taken
his li*e by poisrn, was known as the Sultan Su
leluian ; hi- proclamation assuming sovereignty
(wiitteu in Arabic) was issued a year or two ago,
and was extensively circulated through Moham
mod m countries. The Chiuese Imperial army
h-o U>-eu slowly ctneenlratirg about the rtboi
)loos district for seme time, and now appears to
have made a victorious descent upon the of
Suieiman’s Government.
A toper got so much on his stomach the other
day that 6aid organ repelled the load. As he
leaned against a lamp post vomiting, a little dog
happened to stop by him, w hereupon he indulged
in the lollowing 60'iloqay : *• Well, now, here’s a
conundrum. I know where I ate the baked beans,
I remember where I ate the lobster, I rteolltct
where I got that rum, but I’m hanged if I can re
call where I ate that little yaller dog.”
Tub editor of an exchange has just had his fam
ily reinforced, aud makes the following remarks :
King out wild bells—aDd tame ones too—
Ring out the lover’s moon,
Ring oat the little slips and socks,
Ring in the bib and spoon ;
Ring oat the muse, ring iu the nurse,
King in the milk and water:
Away “with paper, pens and ink—
My daughter, oh, my daughter.
A London tailor advertieea “ garments cat, not
only to fit and in the best style, but regulating
any disproportions that may exist, and enhancing
the correct contour of the proportionate."
The editor of a Western paper writes: “My
wife and I have separated. As we both waited to
be bess, and ahe was likely to beat me, I left her.
She say a ahe will sail ■ y*t, and I believe her."

Thebe was great delicacy in the manner in
which a foreigner, having a friend hang iu this
country, broke the intelligence to his relations on
the other side ot the water. He wrote as follows:
“ Your brother had been addressing a large meet
ing of citizens, who had manifested the deepest
interest in him, when the platform upon which he
stood, being, as was subsequently ascertained,
very insecure, gave way, owing to which he fell
and broke his neck !”
A tough California miner named Smith fell
into a flume in which 1,400 inches of water
was running, and was washed down stream,
through a tunnel, for a distance of one thousand
feet. He then went down a “jump off" a perpen
dicular distance of thirty-six feet on the boulders.
When he got on dry land he manifested a slight
degree of anger and said a few emphatic words,
but was not hurt.
“If a man bequeathed you a hundred dollars,
would you pray for him ? ’ said a Sunday-school
teacher to a pnpiL “ No,” said he, “ I’d pray for
another like hint."
