THE MOTIROE ADVERTISER. FORSYTH, GEORGIA. OFFICIAL ORGAJi OF MONROE COUNT!. BY MoGINTY dt CABAN ISB. ■■ ■ -nr. ■. . Buttcrinc, as it is called in England, is used so extensively that the dairymen have applied to Parliament fora law com pelling its name to be changed from but terinc to margarine. They think that they can head it off in that way. Tn the Colorado desert, near Idaho, there is a large bed of rock-salt, and the Southern Pacific Railroad, in laying the track to the salt-bed, has been obliged to grade the road for twelve hundred feet with blocks of these beautiful crystals. This is the only instance w here a road-bed is laid and ballastod on salt. The sea which once rolled over this place dried up, and left a vast bed of salt nearly fifty miles long. The supply is inexhaustible, and the quality excellent. The decline and fall of the Saddle Rock oyster arc thrillingly described by New York Fish Commissioner Blackford. The Saddle Rock bed was once famous and its product was a most toothsome luxury. Now it is in such a condition that it produces few oysters, but an un limited crop of “roller skates, bottles, ashes, pasteboard and refuse.” Yet there is probably not a New Y ork restaurant where, in the oyster season, Saddle Rocks cannot be obtained—by paying a large enough price. The Panama Canal Company has been able to obtain only about $28,000,000 out of the $45,000,000 it was to raise by the usurious loan it has placed on the Paris market. As the interest charges are now $18,000,000 annually, this is but a drop, and, while it postpones, cannot prevent the collapse of the enterprise. A great financial writer in France, M. Leroy Beaulieu, has just attacked the manage ment of the company in a sledgehammer article, and it is difficult to see how the enterprise can be kept on its legs a year longer. Dr. Chapman, in the Medical and Sur gical Reporter , says that mne-tenths of the wild animals in confinement are sub ject to heart disease,although all animals have their pecularities. The elephants are heirs to many diseases, but the most common and fatal is rheumatism. Monkeys and baboons generally die from bronchial affections and heart disease; felines, such as lions, tig rs, leopards, etc., from dysentery and heart disease; deer, antelopes, etc., suffer from dysentery and heart disease; while the foxes, don't seem to be subject to any disease except “pure c ’ssednes^.” Bishop William Taylor has established in Africa anew line of missions extend ing seventy miles from the coast on the Cavalla river. They are seventeen in number, and the principal ones are at Euliloby, Yawki, Beaboo, Tobo Tatepa, Gerrobo, Wamleka, Fahleky, Baraka, Caraway, and Grand Sess. White men and women are preferred by the natives us teachers in preference to natives. lie has negotiated with the inland kings and chiefs for the establishment of in dustrial schools and missions along the banks of this river, and calls for workers to aid him. To each missionary and his wife a good sized dwelling, ground, and agricultural implements will be given. The missionaries have been w r ell received, and many requests for missions have been set aside for want of workers. A sensible correspondent from Europe advises American parents to educate their children in their native land. H e says: “There are here in Europe multi tudes of American children who can speak French and German better than their own language. 1 met the other evening a family from Ohio, and I found the son, a boy twelve years of age, read ing Cooper's novels and ‘Uncle Tom’s Cabin’ in German. ‘I understand them better in German than in English,’ he re marked, with a strong foreign accent. The parents spoke of the fact with evi dent satisfaction. Another American family, in which are five daughters, who have made a great success in science, medicine, painting and music, employ German or French in their home circle and cannot pronounce an English sen tence without making a blunder of some kind.” The foreign trade of the United States for the last fiscal year was larger than that for the year before in all directions. In other words, we exported more do mestic merchandise (exports of foreign merchandize were but slightly less than before) and imported more foreign mer chandize. Including the figures repre senting the movement of coin, it is found that the totals of imports and exports, merchandise and money, balance within $240,000, the excess being on the side of the imports. The merchandise account alone shows that we sent abroad products, goods and wares valued at $24,000,000 more than the imported articles. An an alysis of the export account shows that about 75 per cent, was agricultural pro ducts, including dairy manufactures, and 20 per cent, manufactured articles, in cluding refined petroleum. A review of the import account shows that nearly half the increase of the total is due to : large importation of undutiable goods, principally coffee, tea and raw materials. Steel and iron, in various forms, contrib uted the most to the increase of dutiai*’- i in ports. The most dangerous men in the world are those who are half fool and half knave. They are always being used by rascals and always saying they meant imp tUe best. THE MONROE ADVERTISER: FORSYTH. GA., TUESDAY.

SIXTEEN STATES HONOR THE PHILADELPHIA CENTENNIAL. The South Fitly Represented—A Flendeome Show of BrAve Men, Beautiful Women— The Prreident ItoyaHy- Received. The first day of the grand ceremonies at Philadelphia, Penn., to celebrate the adoption of the Federal Constitution, passed off well, and the trades proces sion, with its 300 floats, was pronounced one the finest affairs of that kind ever seen in this country. The festivities of the first day closed by several receptions in the evening, at which President Cleve land and his lovely lady were everywhere received with every demonstration of kindness and respect; the sixteen gov ernors who attended all came in for their share of popular regard. The second day was allotted to the military display and it was a grand sight. At the head of the military rode Gen. Sheridan, the Commander-in-Chief of the United States Army, followed by troops of the regular army, officers and sailors, commanded by Admiral Luce and the marine battalion. Then came the Slate troops in the order in Ike States ratified the Constitution or were admit ted into the Union. Delaware was first, followed by Pennsylvania, which made the most imposing display in numbers, having eighteen regiments in line, be sides a dozen batteries of artillery and detached companies, with full division and brigade staffs. New Jersey followed with 1,500 troops; next came Georgia, represented by Governor Gordon and staff and the Gate City Guards of Atlan ta; Massachusetts, with one brigade and two detaehed companies; Maryland,with the sth regiment and an additional bat talion of 1,000 men; South Carolina,rep resented by Governor Richardson and staff aud tho Governor’s Guards and Greenville Guards; New Hampshire, a battalion of three companies; Virginia, Governor Lee and a battalion of 300 men; New YV>rk, Governor Hill and staff, four regiments and ten detached compa nies; North Carolina, Fayetteville Inde pendent Light Infantry; Rhode Island, one regiment; Ohio, Governor Forakcr and one regiment ; Maine, a battalion of 400 men; lowa, Governor Larr.ibee and staff, and the Governor’s Foot Guards; West Virginia, two companies; the Dis trict of Columbia, one battalion and three detached companies. The President arrived at the reviewing stand at 11 o’clock, escorted by the Ist City Troop of cavalry and a throng of distinguished guests. Shortly after 11 o’clock Mrs. Cleveland appeared on the balcony of the LaFayette Hotel, followed by Private Secretary Lajnont and wife,and two or three guests. Mrs. Cleveland re ceived an enthusiastic round of applause as she appeared ii front of the balcony, dressed in a handsome black silk dress with white insertions and a beautiful white feather adorning her hat. At just 11:20, Gen. Phil Sheridan, mounted on a handsome sorrel horse, came up the street at the head of the vad cavalcade of mili tary, preceded by a squad of mounted re serves. As he passed the reviewing stand the President arose and tipped Ids silk hat. It was then one continuous round of liuzzahs. The droops, one and all, marched with hea<|. erect and eyes notwithstanding the* plaudits of the mul titude, rode erect, looking neiihir to right nor left. As each regiment passed the President their commander graceful ly raised his hat and saluted, receiving in return a bow of recognition from the commander-in-chicf of all the troops. The end of the parade was occupied by the Grand Army of the Republic, aud as eaefi post passed in front of the stand its commander gave the salute to the President and was recognized. During the time they were passing, the President remained standing with his head uncovered, and answered each sa lute as it was given. Orders had previ ously been issued by the department com manders, G. A. R., that only Post Com manders should salute, the men in line to walk facing ahead. This was not strict ly adhered to, however, and many of those of the rank and file passed by the stand with uncovered heads, sent up rousing cheers for the Chief Magistrate, which he graciously acknowledged. Their cheer was taken up by the crowd aud carried to the echo. In the evening a grand ovation was given to President Cleveland aud his wife at the Academy of Music. It seemed as though every prominent man and wo man there had felt it incumbent on them to do honor to the head of the nation and his wife. Fully ten thousand people found their way into the building before i the tired President had grasped the hand of the last comer. Every one was in evening dress, and the scene presented one of unusual brilliancy. The immense building was most beautifully decorated with flags, flowers, and cut and growing - plants, and the galleries and boxes were festooned ■with ribbons. The President wore a dress suit, which became him a great deal better than the frock coat of the morning, and Mrs. Cleveland was j clad in a beautiful white satin gown, with j ostrich trimming. In her hair she wore | several clusters of diamonds. The Clover Club, composed of newspaper men, gave the President a reception ufter that at the Academy of Music. The third and last day was “Memorial Day.” Over one of the triumphal arches which span Chestnut street were displayed in bold letters the famous words of John Blight: “All the civilized world; all who love freedom in it, must regard the event as one of the most imp rta . t in the annals of men,” and this seemed the pop ular sentiment. The monsUr panorama of the two preceding days had not, in any way, detracted fr >m the interesting exercises which were held on such an appropriate spot —Independence Square— under the shadow of the honored “Liberty Bell,” which proclaimed “Liberty 1 hroughout All the Land’’ a hundred years ago. A prettier or more charm ing day would; be hard to imagine. It was a typical September day, clear, cool and bright, and inspired the countless thousands who were up at daybreak to contribute their share toward miking the closing day a fitting finale to the centen nial anniversary celebration of one of the most remarkable events in the annals of r.istory. The stand in Independence square, in rear of o.d Historical hail, Lari ■i seating capacity of about 10,000, and was filled early. At 10:30 a gigantic chorus of two thou -and children, with 200 men as leading voices, sang a patriotic air, which brought them rounds of applause in ap preciation of their perfect drilling. After the President and Mrs. Cleveland had reached the stand, a general hand stiaking with those whom they recog nized, or were recognized by, took place, after which, in response to the tumultu ous applause of the multitude, they 1 walked side by 6ide to the front railing of the structure and bowed their ac knowledgment of compliments paid them. It seemed as though the cheering would never die out. The earth trembled j as thousands of throats were yelled hoarse. At 11:25, after all had reached | the stand. Bishop Potter arose, and being followed by all of those who occupied the reserved*space, with uncovered heads, j made the opei ing prayer. Just after the . bishop had concluded his six minutes j prayer, Lieut. Gen. Phil 11. Sheridan. j with his aides, followed closely by C ar dinal Gibbons, Archbishop Ryan aud a number of Catholic clergy, marched down tire aisle, cheered to the echo, j When they had been seated, Hon. John A. Kasson, as president of the Constitu tional Centennial Commission, assumed his place, and after a hymn had been icndcred by the chorus, arose to make the introductory address of the day. Mrs. Cleveland sat almost in front of the speaker's position, and was the cynosure of all eyes. She was neatly aud hand somely ' attired in a close fitting dress of cream and brown colored plaid silk, and wore a stylish bonnet of drab color with ribbon trimmings. Cardinal Gibbons, wearing the cardinal colors of his exalted office, sat at the side of the speakers and was one of the most attentive listeners of the entire assemblage. At the close of Mr. Hasson's address the chorus sang “Appeals of Truth,” (by Mendelssohn) with beautiful effect. President Cleveland then delivered a ten minutes’ address, which was a tine speech, and gained him groat applause, being followed by Justice Miller, of the United States Supreme Court, who was the chosen orator of the occasion. “New Words,” a national hymn by Oliver Wendell Holmes, was then sung. Cardi nal Gibbons pronounced the benediction and the ceremonies closed. As the President and wife passed out, they walked directly underneath tho old liberty bill, and the solid mass of people on either side of the footway waved their hats, handkerchiefs and umbrellas until they ha 1 passed out of sight. W heu they reached the street another ovation awaited them, and as far as the eye could reach there was seen nothing but a flut tering mass of handkerchiefs, hats, etc., and the cheer was taken up along the line until it looked and seemed as though pandemonium reigned from one end of the street to the other. The President and Mrs. Cleveland rode on the back seat of a handsome barouche, he with uucov ered head, and both smiling to the throng as they rode swiftly by. They were at once driven to their hotel, the President to prepare for a dinner given him by the Hibernian society at 3 o’clock, and she to attend a fete given in her honor by Mr. and Mrs. George W. Childs, at their country seat at Wootton. One of the occupants of the speakers’ stand, who received great attention at the hands of the spectators, and who was pointed out by those.who recognized him, was Governor Simon B. Buckner, of Kentucky, and Governors Gordon, of Georgia, Richardson, of South Carolina, Fitz Hugh Lee, of Virginia, Scales, of North Carolina, came in for their share of applause. NOT WELCOME. Denunciation of I’inkerron Detectives bj the People of Nnslivillc, Tcitn. The city of Nashville, Term,, lias been in a ferment over the presence of a large number of strangers, some of whom |Jt v•• Pinkerton de tectives fl TffP l ff ,llll,> *lYT J l h ~f ltt l PiiY hL ing in the private detective service of the Louisville .& Nash vile Railroad. Inves tigation proved that there are twenty five Pinkerton detectives there, as well as a number of the Louisville & Nashville detectives, all in charge of Hewlett and one Connor, all brought here by tlu* Louisville & Nashville Railroad. The people of vhe county vote on the proposition to subscribe half a mil lion dollars to the Tennessee Mid land Raiirad, which is to run from Memphis through Nashville to Bris tol, where it connects with the Virginia Midland, thus giving a competing line east. The Louisville & Nashville, vice presidents, have lias been lighting t lie proposition, and it is believed that these detectives are there to dog the employes on election day and sec that they v t with their employers, and perhaps to do worse work in intimidating voters an I beating the proposition by fraud. The Nashville American speaks of it as fol lows: “The city of Nashville lias novel before had such an insult offered as that of bringing in, on the eve of an election, a gang of notorious desperadoes, known in all parts of the United states as Pink erton’s detectives. These me:i v. er brought here by the Louisville and adi ville management to be used in the elec tion, which it has undertaken to defeat. A large proportion of the nr n of Na.h viile were once soldieis, but a m re peaceable and law-abidmg set of me’ cannot be found, yet their \irtues i: bearing and forbearing seem to be misap prehended. We say one thing to tin gang of spies: If they are hre on an;, business connected with onr Thnislay’.- el ction, they had better do one of two lungs—enter a disclaim-r and retire, or increase their force and go into camp.” ANGRY ENGLISHMEN. Neither Gent nor Hutchins, who were were extensively advertised to run a 120 yards’ foot race at Lillie Biidge at Lon don, England, appeared on the track at all. Thousands of spectators assembled and paid to witness the announced con test. When the crowd were made aware of the situation, as the men re fused to run, they were disgusted and soon took revenge in a riot. They at tacked the fences, railings and buildings on the grounds, and burned several of the latter to the ground; partly demolished two grand stands, the dancing pavilion, and a large assembly hall, and set fire to the wooden railings along the railway and nearly set fire to Brompton station. They next looted a liquor saloon in the vicinity and bombarded the windows and policemen and firemen with full and emp ty bottles. The firemen played their hose upon the rioters, but in vain. After holding possession for three hours the mob was dispersed, when the police, strongly reinforced, arrested a number of the rioters. A railroad inspector, after a struggle with the mob, dropped dea l from the effects of excitement, and four constables were seriously wounded. A GT II.Tr .MAN.

G. S. McDotjgall, foreman. The jury was polled, and when each member was asked whether this was his verdict, he answered “yes.” The ex treme pen dty for manslaughter in lowa is eight years in the penitentiary. The murdered man was a prominent clergy man. who took an active part in favored prohibition. T F W \LKER, Manager. E. Z. PHARR, Sec’y and Treasurer WALKER_& PHARR. PUBLIC GINERY!
