THE FI AA A C'EM
Arc assuming a prominence in the
politics of the country, which threatens
to overshadow issues equally, if not far
more important. We find the great
political parties divided and at variance
among themselves upon this apparently
all-absorbing subject. The Eastern
bondholders regard the Western infla
tionist, with evident suspicion, and look
upon every effort to increase the volume
t>r the currency as a direct blow at all
classes of Government Securities. The
honest yeoa nnry of the West view the
matter from a different standpoint, and
clamor for an increase in the circula
ting medium of the country. We have
no disposition, at this time, even had
wc the ability, to discuss the question
hi issue between those contending fac
tious of the Democratic party. We al
lude to it merely by way of expressing
our regret that such prominence should
have been given these questions at this
time. It is inopportune, and the dis
cussion which it provokes, is calculated
to produce disaffection in tho ranks of
the Democratic party. We repeat, it
is unfortunate that the financial plank
which is creating such discoid in the
Democratic party of the Union, should
ever have been adopted as part and
parcel of tho platform of the Democia
cy of Ohio. While it may be, and
doubtless is the henest conviction of a
majority of the party in Ohio, that the
financial policy foreshadowed in their
platform is the best for tho country, the
policy of promulgating such views on
the eve of a great national contest is, to
say the least of it, injudicious. While
we would not ignore the magnitude of the
interest involved in the currency ques
tion, wc are constrained to tho opinion
that it has been prematurely sprung,
and that its discussion just upw, will
result in damage to the prospects of the
Democracy of the Union. We have
uo fears but what the Ohio Democracy
under the lead of the gallant veteran
Wm. Allen, will achieve a signal victo
ry in the Gubernatorial campaign now
being so vigorously conducted in that
State, but our serious apprehensions
are arcused lest the financial principles
promulgated by the Ohio Democracy
may creep into the council of the Na
tional Democracy next, year causing
disintegration and consequent defeat in
the great Centeunial Presidential con
test.
If the great principles of 1776, for
the maintenance of which the fathers of
the Rqpublic, stakel their lives and
pledged their sacred honors, and upon
which the couutry enjoyed unexampled
prosperity for three-fourths of a centu
ry are lost sight of, it will he iuimato
rial whether the currency is inflated or
greenbacks are at a premium.

ral Repiu'liucnt.
EVERY STATE BUT TEXAS IIAS AN
IMPROVED PROSPECT.
Washington, July 15.—TheJu
ly returns to tho Department of
Agriculture aro unusually full,
showing an improvement of the cot
ton crop during June, in all the
cotton States except Texas. The
Stato averages are ns follows:
North Carolina 95, an improve
rnent of 3 per cent.; South Car
olina 99, improved 2 per cent.;
Georgia 97, improved 6 per cent.;
Florida 101, improved 7 percent;;
Alabama 102, improved I per ct.;
Mississippi M3, improved 3 per
cent; Louisiana 105, improved 10
per cent.; Texas 93, declined 3
percent.; Arkansas 104, improved
14 per cent.; Tennessee 109, im
proved 10 per cent. Some portions
of the cotton area were affected
with drought, which, however, was
(ess injurious to cottoh than to oth
er crops. Its injuries were mostly
compensated by the opportunity it
afforded for better working of other
crops. In Texas, cut worms, cot
ton caterpillars and grasshoppers
were injurious in some localities.—
A few isolated reports also mention
cotton Ike, but insect depredations
so far have not affected the crop to
an extent worth estimating.

replied Tom, “ but my folks make me

Air. Editor, —I respectfully beg spice
in the columns of your paper to pub
lish a series of brief letters, giving the
evidences of a change in tho political
sentiments of the country, I propose,
likewise, to. give reasons why, in my
opinion, this much desired spirit of
conciliation should be encouraged by
every patriot, indeed by every person
without regard to past or present party
affiliations. Of course it will not be in
ferred by your compliance in publish
ing roy communications, that you in
dorse the views set forth iu the pro
posed series of brief letters —but rath
er because of your willingness to pub
lish anything affecting tho iutcrcst of
the country.
'The signs are numerous at present of
a better understanding between the
North aud the South.
The Centennial celebrations have
awakened memories which have led
many of the more discrete and active
minds iu the South to look forward in
stead of backward, to recognize present
duties, to contemplate higher aims.
The remarks of his Excellency, Gov.
Tilden, of New York State, at a recep
tion given by that distinguished Exe
cutive, at Gramercy Park, to the South
ern Editorial Excursionists, furnished
a pleaeing illustration of this desirable
ohange and feeling. The visitors of
the Governor represented the Alabama
Press Association and a large portion
of tho press of Tennessee, amongst
whom nrz some of the most talented
editors known to journalism ; ehivalric
and southron in an extreme degree as
i hey were in ante bcllum and helium
times.
In the address of his Excellency, he
welcomed his Southern visitors arid re
commended more frequent intercourse
between tho intelligent men of the
North and South, saying that had there
been lets sectional isolation before the
war, its causes would have been avert
ed and leaving the inference, that the
elevation of the South to a full concep
tion of its share in national progress
would be subserved noio by freo and
closer interchange of opinion. Catch
ing an echo of proceedings of the cele
bration of the battle of Hunker Hill, he
expressed the hope that ‘ hereafter we
shall stand as in the early days of the
Republic. United for one Constitu
tion. one destiny, one country, and that
we shall have “common purpose
throughout tho whnlo Union, to estab
lish and perpetuate good government
every where.”,'
Uon. P. 11. Powell, President of the
Association, responded fur his brethren
of the Press of Alabama aod Teunessee.
He expressed in warm terms, their ap
preciation of the treatment extended
them on their visit to the Empire State,
lie said, “everywhere we have been re
ceived with open Ire arts and open arms,
and we find that tho people of the
North entertain the most kindly feel
ings towards the people of the South.”
This being true, it is evident that
the honest masses North(not politicians
but patriots) are anxious that bygones
shall be bygones truly ; that the dead
past shall bury its dead and that they
are willing for the future to cooperate
with the South in scouting and perpet
uating these common interests and
tho-e of their common country. Do
not the above smack strong enough of
reconciliation, conciliation and coopera
tion? And ought not this spirit be en
couraged ? The answer is affirmative ;
and the reasons therefor arc the above
recited demonstrations. Indeed, it is
high time that this sort of sound should
be heard from all leaders in the South
who mould and caste public opinion.—
It is quite as true, that it is high time
that the South awake to the importance
of living in the new era of true Democra
cy, which recognizes no caste; which
adjudges all honest labor honorable;
which recognizes popular education es
sential to the permanence of free insti
tutions; which seeks to extend and
give to every eitizeu their rights and
privileges under the law though it may
be that the law was conceived in hatred
for the people of the South, and its ap
plication odious, distasteful aud humil
iating.

—A Huston editor blushes for the
ignorance of three young girls of that
city who tried to get their horse’s head
down so that it could drink by unbuck

girls unbuckled the breeching strap
going down hill, because it pulled
against the poor horse so.

TIIE MOI TZIEHA VOTE.
Him it tiny Up Hade to Count
in tlio rmitleiKiul Election.
[St. Louis Republican.]
The South has been at peace for six
months, because it has been let alone
Louisiana is quiet, Arkansas is quiet,
Alabama is quiet, Mississippi is quiet,
and even South Carolina is quiet. We
no longer hear of Ku Klux in Tennes
see ; of plantation battles between
whites and blacks in Mississippi; of
negro mobs marching to sack towus in
Arkansas and South Carolina ; of
wholesale butcheries of harmless ne
groes by masked ruffians in Louisians.
These things are over, for the present,
at least, and we may hope that they
are ended forever. That active agent
of disturbance, the carpet bagger, is re
tiring from the South ; and the native
whites and blacks, left to themselves
exhibit a surprising capacity for getting
along peaceably together without out
side help. All the accounts we receive
from the States on the Lower Missis
sippi represent that the largest cotton
crop, and the largest corn crop also,
ever raised there will be produced this
year —the result not so much of a fa
vorable season as of the more cordial
understanding between the two races
and improved habits of industry. The
fact is, the whites and blacks are be
ginning to address themselves to the
solution of the difficult problem of their
future relation, with a patient and for
bearing spirit; the blacks arc turning
to the native whites for counsel and as
sistance, and the whites are reeognizmg
their obligations to the weaker and con
fiding race. Both find the new friend
ship a fountain of prosperity ; an im
mense cotton crop blesses their recon
ciliation, and their land is becoming
once more the bright home of a pros
perous and happy people.
All this means that the entire South
is lost to the Republican party. That
party never controlled a veto of a
Southern State except through violence
and intimidation; as the Southern
States were allowed to become peaceful
they slipped, one by one, through its
fingers. It seems strange to be told
that Texas, now Democratic by 57,000
majority j Georgia, now Democratic by
55,000 majority; Virgiuis, now Demo
cratic by 30,0U0 majority, and Ten
nessee, now Democratic by 47,000 ma
jority, were, a few years ago al) con
trolled by Republican Governors and
Legislatures, and represented in Con
gress by Republican senators and mem
bers. Yet, it is True, and in tlitT
these States the Republican lenders may
foresee the loss of the last three South
ern States that they still control—
Louisiana, Mississippi and South Caro
lina In estimating the probable result
of the uext election, therefore, the Re
publicans are forced to oonsider that
they will lose the 09 electoral votes of
the nine Southern States which Grant
carried in 18/2; and that the 100
vot e of the twelve Reconstructed
States will, probably, bo cast against
them, together with tho 38 votes of the
ether four ex-slave States of Delaware,
Kentucky. Maryland and Missouri—
making 138 Southern votes against the
Republican ticket to begin with, and
leaving only 4G rotes to be lost at the
North to insure a Republican defeat.
This is certainly a dismal outlook for a
Republican who lias inuglit himself to
believe that the eontiuued ascendency
of his party is necessary to the safety
of the Union; and it accounts for the
tactics decided on by the Republican
leaders of trusting not to their own
strength, but to the possible folly of
their opponents. Their only hope is
that the Democracy will commit some
monstrous blunder which only tho
Democracy can commit, and thus for
feit the victory within their reach.
“KE< OXSTKI C TIOX.”
Nonry Loss to tlic South by
the Abolition ot Slavery.
[From the Petersburg K*vvs.]
An able correspondent of the New
York Evening Post gives some highly
interesting facts and figures connected
with this sub’eet lie says that the
diminution of assessed personal proper
ty in the late sieve States between 1860
aud 1870 by reason of the emancipa
tion of the blacks is very marked, and
the amounts of decrease very large.—
Alabama, with hundred and seven
ty-seven millions of personal estate iD
1860, returns but thirty-eight millions
in 1870 —a decree of two hundred and
thirty-nine millions. Arkansas is re
duced from one huudted and sixteen to
thirty-one millions in this respect
Mississippi returns three hundred and
fifty-one millions in 1860 against only
fifty-nine millions in 1870—a decrease
of two hundred and ninety-two mill
ions; and South Carolina presents even
a greater differette.e, returning three
hundred and fifty nine millions assess
ed personally in 1860, and sixty-four
in 1870, being a loss of iwo hundred
and ninety-five millions. Georgia, in
| 1860, returned a larger amount of as
sessed personal estate than any other
State in the Union, namely, four hun
dred and thirty-eight millions. In
1870 this total was changed to eighty
three millions; a loss of three hun
dred anafifty-five millions. Missouri,
though slave State, lias suffered com-
little. Her jpersonalty, as
assessed in 1800, was one hundred and
thirteen millions. In 1870 it was in
creased to one hundred and thirty-sev
en millions. Taking the aggregate os
timated true wealth of all the slave
holding in 1860, it presents a
total of'six thousand seven hundred
and forty-six millions of dollars. In
1870 the same aggregate falls to five
thousand four hundred and sixty two
a loss of twelve hun
dred eighty-four millions. The
non slavubolding States, on the contra
ry, show an immense increase during
the same, period. In 1860 their aggre
gate estimated true wealth was nine
thousand three hundred and forty mill
ions, aifS in 1870, twenty-four thou
sand three hundred and sixty millions;
being aid increase of t fifteen thousand
and twenty millions. If wo look at
the weal:t)i of the late slave States in
in appears a great increase
from thru period to 1860. The total
in 1850 was twenty-nine hundred and
forty-seven millions; and in 1860, six
thoiisarnaseven hundred and forty-six
millions-~showirig an 'increase of thir
ty sevenyundred and ninety-nine mill
ions, or o|be hundred 'and twenty-eight
per cent. Had the war not taken
place, the same 'ratio of increase would
have fixefi the wealth of ,the Southern
States injlßßo at fifteen thousand three
hundred and eighty-one uiiHions, or
more thas two and a quarter times
what it actually proved to be. Thus
has tho war blighted the rich prospects
of the slrrveholding States. Tho whole
country fyflees in her aggregate wealth
to the same extent, though not iu the
same proportion as tire Southern States.
This is the enormous amount which
the North has taken nut of Southern
pockets its fanaticism. Tak
ing this together with other losses, is
it wonderful that the South is so slow
in recovering her prosperity. Could
any othejppeople on earth have been so
plunderefiand beggared and shown such
fortitudqp and equanimity? And yet
our Radical masters are not satisfied.

There will boa National Convention

with a iigal credential to represent

James M Smith be requested to order
an election in the second District of

gentlemen to wear the Blue Military
Summer Dressing with a white waist

ground aud a red feather in their hat
arid each company shall carry the Band
of Music and the procession shall start
from the C R. R. to the county site

We envitc 19 counties to be present.
Canoia Harris, Secretary.
Washington co Sandersville ga.
June 23th, 1875.
Here is the accompanying letter ;
Mr. Wm. Harris. Hon.—l will
try to do. so I Seat my sell to send
you an Notice as you did, tne you will
pitas to send me another notice to Glas
Cock and to Warrenton, and tell thorn
to meet to Sandersville Ga the of July
-24 General .Moruas.
Now, can anybody tell what it
means ? We surmise that it means no
good. A glance at the name of the
leader, “ Hon. General P. R. Bives ”
will at once convince those familiar
with South Carolina and Aikin co.
history, the past few years, that there
is no good in it. It is a fraud, inten
ded to mislead our colored people. If
there is any such office as Military
General of Second District of Ga. un
der the constitution of Georgia, we
don’t know it That may do for Rives
in South Carolina, but not in Georgia,
aud be bad best go back there. These
South Carolina negroes are going to try
to poison the minds of our colored peo
ple by the next campaign. There is
something significant in this, and we
warn the people to watch it carefully,
yet cautiously aod lawfully. And to
our sensible citizens of color, we warn
you against this. It is an insult to your
intelligence, for any of you who can
read and know anything of our State
laws, know that there is no such offi
cers in the State and that its design is
fur another purpose.
Rives is the notorious outlaw and
scoundrel, of Aiken county, South
Carolina, who has kicked up so much
fuss and riot over there, and we would
remind him that we have law in Geor
gia and that the day for such as him is
past with us, and he had better walk a
chalk line, while ever here.—[Sparta

THE Till It I> UGOItGI.I,
Preparation* for It* Recep
tion in Portsmouth.
[Norfolk Virginian ]
Pursuant to notice a meeting of the
citizens of Portsmouth took place yes
terday evening at the Mayor’s office.
The inclemency of the weather prevent
ed a larger attendance than would have
been under other circumstances, but we
observed several of our most prominent
merchants and citizens present, who
took a lively interest in the proceed
ings. On motion the Hon. A. S.
Watts, Mayor of Portsmouth, was re
quested to act as President, whilst the
members of the press present were
nominated to act as Secretaries. The
President then called the meeting to
order, and said that he was prepared to
hear any remarks from the citizens on
the question at issue, viz : the recep
tion of the Third Georgia regiment on
the 4th of August. lie said that he
need not remind the people that it was
here where these brave Georgians made
their first stand in a cause which was
then dear to us all, and that when a
call for increased troops was made dur
ing the great struggle for Southern in
dependence we found these same Geor
gians willing and ready to fiil up the
gap. The soldiers of the Third Geor
gia made many warm associations in
Portsmouth, and it becomes us to re
ceive them in a hospitable manner, and
them to feel and believe that time and
distance does not diminish from the
mind the remembrance of friends.
Major Grice then carne forward, and in
a few neat and opportune remarks
offered the following resolution, which
was carried unanimously :
Whereas, The citizens of Ports
mouth have learned with much pleas,
nre that the veteran survivors of the
Third Georgia Regiment have decided
to celebrate their next annual reunion
in tiiis city on the 4th of August, and
remembering'their pleasant association
with our people during the first year of
the late war, when they were stationed
near us, their prompt response to the
call for troops to reinforce our own in
Apfil, IS6I, and thei gallant recard
during that long and unfortunate
struggle, we will welcome them as be
comes citizens of Virginia, and do
everything in our power to make their
visit an enjoyable one, and with the
view of executing our desires be it
lietolved, That the Chairman ap
point a committee’of ten citizens, with
power and authority to appoint sub
committees, to collect funds and make
all proper and needful preparations for
the reception and entertainment of our
friends of the Third Georgia Regiment
during their visit and stay in our city.
The Chair then appointed the fol
lowing Committee in accordance with
the preceding re-olution, viz : Major
G. Grice, Captain Thomas A. Rain,
Major W. 0. Wingfield, Captain Joe
Sam Brown, Judge L. R. Watts, Cap
tain James 11. Robinson, Captain C.
W. Murdaugh and John T- Hill, Esq.
On motion, the Mayor, A. S. Watts,
Esq , was added to the committee, a
meeting of which was requested to con
vene at the Mayor’s office this morning
at 10 o’clock. The attention of mem
bers not present is drawn to this an
nouncement. There being no further
business, the meeting adjourned.

Mr. Tyler, in his Primitive Cul
ture,” thus applies to this work the
law of the interpretation of myths :
“Obviously, the four-ami-twenty
blackbirds are four-and-twunty hours,
and the pie that holds them is the un
derlying earth, covered with the over
arching sky ; how true a touch of na
ture it is, when the day breaks—the
birds begin to sing ! The king is the
sun, and his counting out his money is
pouring out the sunshine, the golden
shower of Dante. The queen is the
uioon, and her transparent honey the
moonlight The maid is the rosy ftgwre
dawu j who ris s before the sun, her
master, afld bangs out the clouds, his
clothes, across the sky. The particular
blackbird who so tragically ends the
tale by snipping off her uose is the hour
of sunshine.”
One of the college exchangee
says that a clergyman of a certain
Church, on a recent occasion, dis
covered, after beginning the ser
vice, that he had forgotten his
notes. As it was too late to send
for them, he sain} bo his audience,
by way of apology, that this room
ing he shoull have to depend upon
the Lord for what he might say,
but in the afternoon he would come
better prepared.
