TUESDAY, JULY 1, 1873 A tlanta La determined to have a fair next fall Asn now Macon rises to slough off her uuclean llness. The Kimball House in Atlanta is crowded with Southern guests. The 4th of July will be appropriately celebrated by the negroes of Brunswick. The thieves about Brunswick steal fifty and sixty saw-logs In a night. A Putnam county man has killed thirty wild turkeys since Christmas. *• Griffin has furnished 2,820 toes of guano to cotton producers this season. #. The Irregularity of the town clock in Eastman Lansscs the editor of the Times. The F.atouton Messenger, will publish a brief of the evidence la the Greer case this week. —a ■■ Col. J. 11. Fhteb, has been suggested as a (Hoper man lor Ordinary of Pike county. The Patriot calculates that Pike county has made 40,000 bushels ol wheat this year. ♦.— Pike county has 24,455 acres planted in cotton, and 19,919 acres in corn. — A petition is being circulated in Atlanta for the removal of postmaster Dunning. ♦+♦ Tub merchants 44 On’Change ” in Atlanta, fur nishes fine locals ior the Atlanta dallies. Thk banks in Savannah will close at one o’clock p. m., after the Ist of July. Tub docket of the Supreme Court shows 20.< cases to be heard at the July term. Griffin wants a whitewashed fence around her college, and seats under the trees on the campus Tiie local editor of the Griffin Star Is withering in his sarcastic “flings” about the Johnson family. Mils. Goktchius, wife of the Rev. G. L. Goelcb lus, pastor of the Presbyterian Church of Mllledge villc, died on the 22nd. The Indebtedness of the Kimballs, ss shown by the notice of the assignee, amounts to over four million dollars. ■ Mr. Weems, of Bartow county, charged with disgraceful conduct, has been acquitted of the crime by the Masonic fraternity. I)k. A. P. Longstkeet, a relative o( the Judge, author of “Georgia Scenes,” died in Effingham county on the 19ih. * Smith, of the Brunswick Appeal, never allows Ills paper to deteriorate for the want of locals. His fertile brain is drawn on. The corn crops in Thomas county grows so fast, under the influence of the late rains, that well, Christian thinks he can hear it crack ! The Atlanta Constitution has absorbed the At lanta Sun. It ha 6 swallowed up the whole con cern from A. H. 8. to handsome Willie Moore. Mr. Speights, of the Griffin News, has made a contract with Smith A Summers, of Barnesville, to manufacture the Brinly Shaft Plow. When an appeal case is entered in any one of the Courts in Savannah, the local editor of the News, is tilted with excessive joy. Tiik County Commissioners of Pike and Men. wether counties have a movement on foot to pur chase Erin Bridge, over Flint river. Toll will be abolished. Watson of the Telegraph and Messenger, thinks strange of a young man, who goes after a police man to catch the thief who stole the key-hole in his door. Tub Commencement exercises of Gordon Insti tute, at Barnesvlllc, began on Sunday, the 29th. Rev. A. A. Lipscomb preached the Commence ment Sermon. Macon is so very healthy that the “mortuary reporter’ of the Telegraph and Messenger was forced to chronicle the death of two calves on the 21th, in order to save himself. . .•-* Tub subscription list of the Griffin Star, it is claimed, can’t be equaled outside of Macon and Savanuah. This is a bold remark, for it may put the News in the notion of absorbing that list. Tub Atlanta Constitution thinks that that city should not increase the tax on gross arnouut of sales to 50 cents on the SIOO, and says, “ Now that Atlanta has built up such a great whaleeale business, let us bo careful not to cripple it by bur densome taxation, We counsel ngaiust action which may prove suicidal iu the end. ’ ♦ + ♦ 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. —Hoston Globe. 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." “in G-od w© Trust.” ATLANTA ADVERTISEMENTS.
