Memphis has been placed in charge
of a receiver.
Hon A.. H. Stephens was G 8 years
old on the 11th.
Dr. De LaMartyr will not make
his trip through the South in the
interest of the greenbackers. The
papers scared him off.
Mrs. Senator Bruce has created
another stir among the shoddyites at
Washington, by taking a real nigger
wench with her to a public reception
given at the Itiggs House.
Prof. Richard G. Propf, a promi
nent and an influential citizen of
Franklin, Va., seventy years of age,
has left his wife and fourteen chil
dren and run off with a girl sixteen
yeurs old, named Miss Dangerfleld.
E. W. M. Mackey, who had so much
to tell the Teller committee about
tissue ballots, is a white South Caro
linian who disgraced a negro woman
by marrying her, and now a grand
jury has just indicted him for slander-
Old man Lord, about whose mar
riage with the gay and youthful
widow, Mrs. Hicks, so much furor
was made a year ago, has just died.
It is supposed the widow will soon
bo ready to make another ten strike.
It is said that Hayes received with
complacency the nows of his victory
over Conkling in the matter of the
New York nominations. Hayes pro
bably thinks that since luck (and
fraud) secured him the presidency
he need have no fears about other
things.
Senator Christiancy has resigned
sure enough and will go to Peru
doubtless, as minister. It is more
than probable that old Zach Chan
dler will take his place in the sen
ate, though it is said that there will
be several opposition candidates for
the place.
Wo rise to remark that the Au
gusta Evening News is one of the
brightest, newsiest and most reada
ble papers we get. Bill Moore is mak
ing it eminently successful as far as
editorial ability can do so. We hope
it pays financially and may long re
main in the laud to bless it.
The Supreme court only reached
the end of the docket for the July
term last week, and had no vacation
before the next term begun. How
ever, there are but few cases brought
to this term and it is probable the
faithful judges will have two months
rest or more in the summer.
The State of Georgia has a claim
against the State of Alabama for
eighteen thousand dollars, money
expended in the support of insane
persons from the latter State in the
lunatic asylum. Governor Colquitt
has placed the matter in the hands
of Hon. Reese Crawford, of Colum
bus, who has gone to Montgomery to
obtain a settlement of the account, it
possible.
It will boa matter of interest to
those who contemplate attending the
approaching convention of the State
Agricultural Society, at Hawkins
ville, ou the 18th inst., to know that
through the efforts of Col. Harde
man, the president, all the railroads
in the State, except the Georgia,
have consented to pass delegates
free. They will also be entertained
free in Hawkinsville, so that the trip
will be not only pleasant but cheap.
We hope our section will be well
represented,
Judge Flemiug was elected to con
gress in the first district on the
10th. He had no opposition. His
tern Twill last only ten days and
some of his friends are proposing
that he be put forward for the judge
ship of the Eastern circuit, in place
of Judge Tompkins, whose resigna
tion will take place on the 20th of
March. Ho was once before judge
of that circuit for several years but
he is seventy-four years old now and
its feared he cannot discharge the
onerous duties of the office.

A remarkable case is exciting the
people of Fort Edward, Mass. Miss
Annie Carter was attending a social
entertainment and was full of life
and jollity, apparently in excellent
health. Suddenly she fell to the
floor as in a faint. A doctor pro
nounced her dead of heart disease
and preparations were made for her
funeral and burial. Just before this
took place, however, it was noticed
that the body was warm, the cheeks
showed color, the limbs were flexible
and there were many indications of
life remaining. The physicians con
sulted but are unable to say whether
she is dead or in a trance. She has
lain this way for a week.
In the recent debate in the senate
on the resolutions of Mr. Edmunds
declaring the validity of the 13th,
14th and loth amendments, Senator
Morgan, of Alabama, took a promi
nent part; developing the highest
order of statesmanship, and fixing
Ins reputation for all time. He had
to onpose that able and subtle old
senator, Edmunds, of Vermont, who
is recognized as one of the ablest
constitutional lawyers in the body,
and who has nearly always been vic
torious in his debates. The Southern
senator, however, walked over him,
completely dernolbhing his argu
ments, and showed him up in his true
colors. Senator Morgau’s speech is
said to have been one of the most ef
fective delivered in the senate for
years.
Mr. Tilden’s testimony before the
Potter sub-committee has called
forth the undivided approval of the
fair-minded and unprejudiced in ail
sections of the country. The press
with a unanimity which only ex
cludes the rampant radical organs,
has commented most favorably on it
and the sage of Gramercy Park
stands out before the country to-day
with something of grandeur and
peculiarity in his honesty and exal
tation above the venality of many ol
the public men connected with the
electoral frauds of 1876. His most
vindictive enemies have failed to
connect him in any way with the ne
gotiations to buy votes and bis char
acter is unimpeached and unim
peachable.
Mr. Henry W. Grady has been in
Athens and has written a letter to the
Constitution on the present condition
and prospects of the University. He
represents it as highly prosperous and
says that under the present manage
ment there is more satisfaction ex
pressed by all interested than for a
long time. Dr. Mell, the Chancel
lor, is filling his important position
not only with credit to himself but
with great and visible benefit to the
institution. Already the attendance
which had become very small has
taken a start in an upward direction
and the catalogue will show 150 pu
pils this term. We are heartily re
joiced to know that the University
is soon to enjoy the prosperity of its
p ffmiest days.
Shall the Chinegc Come!
Rev. Mr. Hartwell, the returned
Chinese Missionary, who preached in
the Baptist Church in this city on
Tuesday night, in speaking of the
immigration of the Chinese to Ameri
ca noticed it in its political, social
and religious phases. His views on
this subject struck us as very forcible,
especially as to the political aspects
of the matter. The reverend gen
tleman stated that there were at
present about one hundred and fifty
thousand Chinese in the United
States and they continued to come.
Under the Burlingame treaty they
had been promised equal protection
with other classes of citizens of this
government in the acquisition of
property and the pursuit of business.
True, they cannot be naturalized and
allowed to vote, but in other respects
they were citizens. Now congress
was about to pass a law to restrict
the immigration and violate the
treaty. But, he asked what would be
the consequences? The Chinese are
a very persevering people and if
they want to they will come anyhow.
All they will have to do will be to
land in Canada on the North or in
Mexico on thee South and come right
across the line, and nothing could
keep them out. The preacher des
canted at some length on the charac
ter of our government, and said that
it was not in harmony with our free
institutions and fundamental doc
trines to exclude the Chinese or any
other immigrants. His idea then
was to let them come, but to provide
for their education and evangelization
in such a way as to make them fit to
live in our republic and an element of
strength in developing our country.
Mr. Hartwell gave at length also his
views on the social and religious
bearing of the subject, but it was
only our purpose to notice the opin
ions above alluded to. They seem to
us worthy of consideration.
Sherinun on the South.
Gen. Sherman has written a letter
in answer to one from Capt. Howell,
of the Constitution, giving his im
pressions of the soil, climate and re
sources of the South and especially
of Georgia, and also some views on
the best way to attract immigration
to our section. This letter is written
apparently in a very amicable and
unprejudiced spirit and sets forth
much of the truth as regards the
advantages of our State and the at
tractions for northern and all other
immigrants. We do not know that
Gen. Sherman has any sinister or
unworthy motive in writing as he
has, and hence we take it that he
has risen above partisanship and
sectionalism to the extent of telling
the truth as he knows it. He cer
tainly knows that the Southern peo
ple do not love him and while they
are duly grateful for his kind words,
they will not be able to bestow very
much sincere affection on the de
spoiler of their homes in the days
when he was making the observa
tions which he now gives to the pub
lie. Gen. Sherman has had splendid
opportunities on three separate oc
casions to form a very correct opin
ion of the nature and resources of
our State and the letter he has writ
ten shows that he has improved
those opportunities well. We are of
course, gratified to know he has spo
ken so favorably of us because his
influence will do much to spread the
truth concerning our people and
lands and we trust will allay preju
dice in the minds of those
who are seeking new homes to
he extent of bringing among us
such men as will aid us to develop
our section to its grandest possibili
ties. Many of Gen. Sherman’s views
about immigration and the best
mer-ns of drawing it in our direction
are very correct. We will try to
pul lir-h the letter entire next week
so as to give all our readers the
benefit of it.
The Zulu War.
Great Britain with her diversity of
interests and vast territory on which
“the sua never sets” has about all she
can do to keep matters well in hand
and run the government so as to give
any sort of satisfaction to her numer
ous subjects. Even the astute Bea
consfield finds some difficulty in
[uieting disseisions at home and
:eepiug down listurbances in the
Monies, and at the same time man
ige the great State and international
questions which constantly call for
his attention. Among the many af
fairs which now occupy a prominent
place in that country’s consideration
is a war which has been going on for
a f w months with the Zulus, a some
what fierce and independent tribe in
the interior of Afrioa. The trouble
arose about some territory and the
commission of indignities by the Zulus
ou her majesty’s officers, whereupon
England sent a large force under
Lord Chelmsford against them, to
bring them to terms. This movement
had attracted but little attention
however, it being considered a rather
small affair compared with other in
terests, until a few days ago the news
came that a terrible fate had over
taken the British troops. The dis
patch says that on the 21st of Janu
ary the British column, consisting of
a portion of the 24th regiment, a
battery of artillery and 600 native
auxiliaries, were utterly annihilated
near Tugaioo river by 20,000 Zulus ;
who captured a valuable convoy of
120 wagons, 1000 oxen, two cannons>
400 shot and shells, 1000 riffes’
25,000 pounds of ammunition, 60,000
pounds weight of provisions and the
colors of the 24th regiment. It is
estimated that 5000 Zulus were killed
and wounded in the battle.
Among the killed on the British
side are two majors, four captains
twelve lieutenants and the quarter
master of the 24th regiment; two
captains of the royal artillery; a
colonel, captain, four lieutenants and
the surgeon major of engineers, be
sides twenty-one other officers com
manding the native levies. Seven at.
tucks subsequently made by the Zulus
have been repulsed, and the colony
is now somewhat recovering from the
utter consternation which at first
prevailed.
Tne result was the loss to the Bri
tish of all'they had gained and they
cm make no further move until rein
forcements are sent them, while they
are constantly threatened in their
present position. The loss to the
British in men, besides officers, was
about 500 killed. Altogether the Zu
lus are giving Great Britain more
troublo than she anticipated.
Coming Iluinc to Koost.
Last fall when the excitement of
the congressional campaign was at
its heights and the independents
were moving heaven and earth to
meet their candidates, creating there
by almost irremediable discord and
dissensions in tue ranks of the demo
cratic party, wo warned them that
their sins would return in double
force cu their own heads and they
be made to repent the folly which
led them to attempt to weaken the
democracy and to form unholy alli
ances with the radical party. We
exhorted them not to allow the flim
sy excuses which they set up about
the nominating conventions to ’ead
them into excesses which would
bring worse evils upon the party and
State. We were earnest and explicit
then in declaring to them that their
cause was unwarranted and untena
ble, and that higher principles than
mere personal pique and greater is
sues than the election of a congress
man were involved in their wild war
against the organized party. We
tried to get them to see that the
radicals would gloat over their suc
sesses and take them only as evi
dences of the dissolution of the de
mocracy and an encouragement to
their own party. We pointed out
that the trouble would come when
the parties began to marshal their
forces for the fight of 1880 and that
then the differences and dissensions
in local politics would assume a na
tional character and be used to the
detriment of our influence as a demo
cratic State. But no, we were not
listened to. The organs of Speer
and Felton hooted us and with a
hip, hip, hurrah, they rushed wildly
into the fray and were successful.
But now comes the very troubles of
which we warned them. The radi
ical organs and leaders in all parts
of the country are building their
hopes high on defeating the organ
ized democracy through the agency
of the independents. Already they
are beginning to give forth their
prcgnastications of the results
ii the next e’ection in this
State. The Washington Repub
lican, an extreme republican organ
indicates what its party is counting
on in a very suggestive article where
in it takes occasion to slander and
villify Gen. Gordon and Gov. Col
quitt and to laud Dr. Felton for his
boldness in opposing the organized
democracy. It predicts the latter
gentleman’s election as governor oh
an independent line and hopes that
the radicals will take courage and by
an alliance with these same inde
pendents yet be enabled to control in
the affairs of this State. For all this
the rash independents are responsi
ble and if these expectations are re
alized they alone will be to blame.
The Tenth Census.
The new law for taking the census
next year has just passed the Senate.
We give the principal features of its
provisions:
It provides for the appointment of
a superintendent of census by
President and with the consent of
the senate and also the necessary
clerks and copyists in his office. The
secretary of the interior is directed
to appoint on or before the Ist oi
April, 1880, one or more supervisors
of census within each State and Ter
ritory, such persons to be residents
of such State or Territory. The total
number of supervisors is not to ex
ceed 150. The supervisors are to
apportion their districts, designate
to the superintendent suitable per
sons to employ as enumerators, such
persons to be selected solely with
reference to their fitness and without
reference to their political and party l
affiliations. Each supervisor is to 1
receive SSOO upon the completion of
his duties. Enumerators are to re
ceive two cents for each living in
habitant reported, two cents for each
death reported; ten cents for each
farm and fifteen cents for each es
tablishment of productive industry
enumerated and returned. The sub
division assigned to each enumerator
shall not exceed 5,000 inhabitants,*
according to the census of 1870, nor
contain less than 3,000, when the
last preceding census shows the in
habitants thereof. The bill still
further provides for the punishment
of the enumerators and others for
giving information to outside par
ties, neglect of duty, etc. It is made
a misdemeanor, punishable by a fine
of SIOO, to refuse to answer the ques
tions of the enumerators, and offi-
cers of corporations who refuse to
answer them shall pay a fine of not
less than SSOO nor more than SI,OOO,
and be imprisoned not exceeding
one year. All census matter is to
pass through the post office free.
The schedule of inquiries is the same
as now provided by section 2206 of
the revised statutes, with various ex
ceptions and additions. It further
provides for the employment of ex
perts and special agents to investi
gate in their economic relations the
manufacturing, railroad, mining, fish
ing and other industries of the country
and the statistics of telegraph, ex
press, transportation and insurance
companies. The enumeration is to
commence on the first day of June,
1880, and be completed before the
first day of July following 1 . In cities
having over 10,000 inhabitants the
enumeration of population shall be
taken within two weeks from the
first of June. It limits the cost of
the census to $3,000,000, exclusive of
$250,000 for printing and other pre
liminary expenses. Any State tak
ing a census of its population, etc.,
shall have one half of the expense
thereof paid by the United States
upon depositing a full and authen
tic copy with the secretary of the in
terior.

For the Education of Young Ladies.
.. Til ® Spring term will open Monday, the 6th of January next. A full corps of iustrao
tion will be ready for the several departments of Science, Literature, Music, Fine Arts
and the various elementary branches of theoretical and practical education, *uitable for
daughters. In the short space o Jfour months, the Seminary has stepped out upon the

his cm dren. Tuition and board for girls ought to be reduced accordingly. We have
made a bold step in that direction. Our rates are from 25 to 50 per cent, less than tboss
