I m® Wwms* Louisville, Ga: FRIDAY, SEPTEMBER 1,1371. ' Wtllher are We Blowing? We thinlc we can safety say without fear of Contradiction that the ‘oldest in habitant' has no recollcotion of ever hav ing witnessed such an August as the one now expiring. Indeed the year 1871 so far, and the two or three years immediately preceding, can bo proupunc ed strange and astonishingly irregular exhibitions of nature’s old fashioned ways. The time haß been, and it is of 6ucb recent existence that the youngster of fifteen summers should bear it in mind—when a storm or a rain was a thing that came in the course of atmospheric influences, orderly and time ly— heralded by the Moon’s quartcr ings—the points from which the wind blew-4-the ‘mare’s tails'—murky hori zons, and unusual noises suddenly and more distinctly heard, of water falls— saw mills and the like—and they blew sometimes violently and at other times caused freshets, but as a general rulo were of ordinary dimensions, refreshing and very useful. Now, and during the years we have mentioned, they remind ns most feeliugly of Macbeth’s idea n bout the wonderful metamorphosis in human life— “ the times have beau, That when the bruins were out the man would die, And there an end; but now tliey rise again And push us from our stools :” And so of storms of wind and rain—tor nadoes, hurricanes, thunder and light ning: there’s none of the Old sigus or ruleß how to calculate them in these days; possessing ns they do, not only Macbeth’s power of self-resurrection, but also may be said not to die at all! They seem to be on the rampage or war path all times ; a violent gust day before yes terday ! —storm of wind, rain, hail, thun der and lightning, with someone or more killed yesterday'! wuilo to-day a regular cyclone is in full blast and the Lord can only tell what its ravages will be, or where it will take up. The whole meterological history is presented by ono vast and seemingly endless mael strom that sucks in and swallows loco motives, houses, trees and animals every where. AVe Lave little doubt that the Signal Bureau Reporters at Washington aro puzzled to keep up with the rapid and almost interminable violence of these tracks of the air. There aro no cloudless days to bo seen as of yore; not even the sweet influences of gentle breezes with spells of calm weather; and what an hour may bring forth is be yond the power of our wisest Almanac makers. Just now Middle Georgia pre sents a rich field to Dutch emigrants. Our pasture lands would supply cheap and ready facilities for his butter and cheese, and general farm products, while bis knowledge and passion for wind mills would give him an advantage of erecting mills where water-power does not exist and making a fortune in a short time! State Fair aa«l the Agricultural College. A most laudable spirit is now moving our people to the advancement of their industrial pursuits in nctfrly every coun ty of the State. Facilities to dovelope our multitudinous resources arc spring ing up in County and District Fairs, nnd in the formation of Agricultural and Mechanical Associations auxiliaries to the main head that moves undor the auspices of our State Legislature, nnd whose third annual exhibition will take placo at Macon in October next. Be Bides, we have ably conducted Agricul tural and Horticultural, Stock nnd Or chard Journals, that disseminate month ly and seasonably, the latest as well as most approved means of information that these various subjects or branches require—added to which, all the weekly and daily newspapers are constantly furnishing valuable statistics, new discoveries and inventions with much of practical advice from their many cor respondents, to aid tho Planters and Farmers in the successful management of their crops and to infuso pride and resolution into all classes, orders and ranks of our citizens. AVo can perceive already what improvements have taken place within a year, and wo are confi dent a real start has only bccu made when we get fairly in motion and every body contributes his mite at some Fair or otbor, then indeed Georgia will bo come the Empire State, the key of the great inverted arch of the American Union. But gratifying and encouraging as these facts are, we think they can be more advantageously enlarged by amal gamating and permanently locating two of their most important accessories—wc mean the State Fair and tho State Ag ricultural College. Os course the Col lege whenever established will be per* nl »uent, and our suggestion is that the place of holding the State’s Annual Fs'tS be a(|o filed and immovably set f|ed;yhei#er tha College shall be es tab%hed.+ Let tho two go together and (not necessary to specify, became they mast bn patent and forcible to the minds of all) advise and recommend that snch a union or sameness of loestion at least, he that mach as the most for. the interests of the objects in view, we can see no ob jection. altstawar, why ftlilledgeville should not be selected as tho place for both. It is no stock-jobbing, pipe-lay ing or lobbying matter, but one in wliioh the great body of the people are deep ly interested, and for whom sacrifices should be willingly made at the smallest cost—in the quickest time—aud with the amplest facilities. The public property— the old Capitol, Executive Mansion and Penitentiary buildings, wall and grounds, fill up tho necessities so completely, as to leave but little to want, and that lit tle such as can be instantaneously sup plied. Death of Rev. K. S. S. Reman, D. D. From the Greensboro (GaJ Herald, wo loarn that this aged and able Divine, died in Troy, N. Y. on the Bth inst.— His age is not stated, but from our re membrance of him, we judge lie was not much under ninety ! At onetime he re sided at Mt. Zion, Hancock county, in this State, and for several years was Principal of tho High School established there—the reputation of which was sec ond to none at that day. lie was assist ed by the Rev. Benjamin Gildorsleeve (who, we think, is still in life,) and was succeeded by his brother Rev. Carlisle P. Beman I). D. who still resides at Mt. Zion venerable in his years and honored for a long life of useful service to the State of his early adoption. Ur. N. S. S. Beman was an efficient and successful teacher and a learned and el oquent pulpit orator. He left Georgia about 1321 —probably a little earlier or later, and perhaps with ono exception, never afterward visited the State Par tial paralysis joined to old age caused his death. The Magnetic Springs. Some weeks past we mentioned the ce lebrity of the St. Louis, Michigan Springs in cases of paralysis and general nervous affections ; and that several distinguish ed individuals—among them Chief Jus tice Chase, had an idea of testing their virtues this season. lu Ei-try Saturday's issuo of the 12th inst., we find this statement. “The mag netic waters at the St, Louis Michigan Springs, aro working excellently upon Chief Justico Chase, nnd tho favorable reports thereof have induced other dis tinguished invalids to take up summer quarters there.” While all this may be as represented, and wc hope results aro even better, it strikes us that tho proprietors are rather indifferent or doubtful about the value of the mineral properties of the Springs, or they would inform the public and re ceive an immediate run of patronage commensurate with tho wants of many who, we aro sure, have never yet beard of the powerfully healing qualities at tributed to their waters. A specific euro for Paralysis, even its abatement, would be a blessing to many afllictod, and a source of untold wealth to its possessors. So far, we have seen no other than high ly flattering accounts, but such medicinal and effective agents should receive the utmost development and bo known far aud wide. COMPTROLLER GENERAL BELL’S REPOET. Wc are in receipt of the Annual Re port for this Department, embracing in detail and under different heads, the sources of Ilevenuo and tho disburse ments from tho Treasury of Georgia, for the whole year of IS7O. Its arrange ment seems to be sufficiently lucid, and to condcnso all tho necessary topics re quired by law, and will no doubt sulj servo very important purposes—some of which we shall hereafter notice, one es pecially—that of lavish and criminal wastefulness of tho people’s money, by the last Legislature or any of their like bands of foraging Committees, Supernu meraries, Clerks, assistant deputies, &c.; it will, we hope, prevent the repetition, if it does not reimburse the surplussos thus fraudulently taken. We respect fully return our thanks to Comptroller Bell for a neatly printed copy of the Re port: Yellow Fever in Charleston. Charleston, August 26. —Tho Medi cal Society of Charleston, in view of the exaggerated reports abroad as to the presence of yellow fever here, held a meeting Inst evening, and, after full investigation and discussion, resolved to innko oftiieiul publication of the real facts of tho case as follows : That yellow fever, of a mild type, does exist to a limited extent in Charles ton—that it is mainly confined to one neighborhood—that the first case dated from July 27th, and, during the month that has elapsed since then, there have been, perhaps iu all up to this time, tfair ty-fivo cases, of which five have proved fatal; but that the disease does not scam to spread rapidly or widely. It is added that a difference of opinion ex ists in the profession as to the probable spread of the disease. The Board of Health announces, this morning, that tiie number of cases reported since the 23d inst, indicates that the disease is assuming an epidemic form, Large Public Meeting in Baldwin. Aceordinfif tq a Qnivioui/iiU. ihfirg wm A large and enthusiastic meeting on Tuesday, August 22<t> is the' Senate Chamber of tho old State House at Mil iadgeville. The meeting was organized upon motion of Hob. T. W. White, by calling Col. John S. Thomas to the Chur. Mr. j. H. Furman moved that Bnu. W. Babbow, Esq., be requested to set as'Secretary. The meeting was then called to order, and Col. McKinley in a few words stat ed its object : “To adopt measures to so euro the location of tho Agricultural,. Mechanical and Military College in the publie buildings at Milledgeville.” Col. H. D. Oapers, of Savannah, was then in troduced by the Mayor, and delivered an effective an eloqaeot speech upon the matter before the meeliug. He was fol lowed by Capt. Williamson and Mr. J. H. Furman, who clearly and pointedly showed the advantages of Miltedgeville as the proper site for the Agricultural College. After Mr. Furman concluded, Col. McKinley moved the following res olutions, which were adopted, unani mously, viz : Resolved, That as the land granted to Georgia by Congress will bo forfeited and lost, nnd the Scrip have to be re funded to the United States on the first day of July, 1572, unless the State shall establish before then, such Agri cultural College as the land was intend ed to maiutaio ; therefore, the Legisla ture ought to establish such College promptly in November next, and let it get to work by March or April next thereafter. 2d. As the State already has on band at Milledgcville, the Stale House, Governor's House, three other dwelling houses, besides shops, sheds and other buildings, which cost the State over $500,000, and would now cost 81,000,- 000,—and as the City Council of Alii - ledgevillc offers to give the Slate a rich farm land, 50 to 500 acres for the School, and the Presbyterian Church at Mil* ledgeville also offers to give to the State for the School, the old Oglethorpe Col lege buildings and its fourteen Barracks and fifty acres of land, iu all 54 rooms, and worth to the State, at least $200,- 000 more; that, therefore, tho Legisla ture ought to establish the Military Ag ricultural and Mechanical College in the Public Buildings at Milledgevillc, in November next, without further loss of time, or expense to the people. 3d. As the State is by law made Trustee of the U. S. College land fund, she can safely advauco any money ne cessary to "support and maintain” the Agricultural College, by paying Profes sors’ salaries, or other like necessary expenses, and charge it to the trust, — unless Bhe will be more liberal and give it. 4th. Milledgcville is the best of all places in Georgia, for the proposed Col lege—being central, healthy, in a pleas ant hill country, with good water, and good lands, and accessible by railroads in all directions. sth. The Agricultural College, if lo cated at Milledgeville, will possess a free Law School, as the Bar of Milledge ville pledge themselves to instruct the College in the law of land titles, land lord and tenant, master and servant, contracts and crimes, without salary from the State or fees from the students. And the Physicians of Milledgeville make a similar pledge as to the Medical ttepartment,—a rogular comse of lec tures to the Students on health and Dis ease, without salary from the State or fees from the Students. 6th. We hereby recommend the Le gislature to commit tho Agricultural College to the care and Trusteeship ot a State Agricultural Board, to be chosen by the State Agricultural Society, with power to establish a Department of the College at Dahlonega. On motion of Mr. Carrington, it was also resolved, that a Committee of five for Correspondence he appointed ; and that the thanks of the meeting be ten dered to Col. Capers. Hon. T. W. White made some very sensible remarks, shoving the necessity of united effort and liberal contributions from the citizens of Baldwin county. On his motion, an Executive Committee was appointed, consisting of Col, McKinley, L. Carrington, J. Jones, A. I. Butts, O. V. Brown, S. G. White, and Mayor of Miliedgville. The meeting then adjourned upon motion, subjoct to the call of tho Chair man. JNO. S. THOMAS, Chairman. Benj. W. Babrow, Scc’y. A Negro State. —A Charleston (S, C.) correspondent of the Richmond (Ky.) Messenger thus alludes to political affairs in the old Palmetto State: “Four-fifths of tho members of the Legislature are negroes, who have mado from three to a hundred thousand dollars each. The Lieutenant Governor and Secretary of State aro mulattoes, and three out of the four members of Con gress range in color from a bottle of ink to a dirty piece of sole-leather. One of tho Associate Justices of tho Supreme Bench is so black that a chalk mark on his philanthropic physiognomy would look like a light-house iu a fog, while the ponderous gravity with which he listens to the learned arguments of the really learned men of the State, who arc forced to appear before him, has its equal only in that ridiculous sedateness with which yon have seen a monkey catch fleas. The leader of the Legislature is a Michigan negro, whose linguistic oili ness quickly brought hiu to the dingy surface, and there he still floats in vanity and wealth. He is called the “Black Prince,” and lives in style about seven miles from Charleston, owns tweuty horses and mules, with handsome car riages to boot; drives with a footman, and fires a bottle or two of champagne with a lavish hand to every sight-seer who has a curiosity to visit an ebony iuol in his own home.” Railroad Meeting in Atlanta.— Pursuant to announcement, the corpora tors of the various railroads, chartered at the last session of the Legislature, met at the Kimball House yesterday morning. Abont, twenty-one railroads were represented. The corporators were unanimously in favor of the narrow.guagc system. The corporators also agreed to oppose any further efforts to obtain State aid. It is feared the potato blight will al most destroy the Irish crops. 1 Tub Year or Disasters. —The year year'llb.vc been be crowded in the space of one short year. And the accidents have been far more destructive of life than accidents have heretofore been. It was told us by the telegraph, a few days ago. that the death's - occasioned hy-Yhe explosion of the steam ferryiboat, Westfield, at the foe* of Whitehall etreet, New York, two weeks ago Were more numerous thau all the doit bn from all the explosions that had occurred during the last two years, 1869 and 1870'. The explosion of the gas in the coal mines of Pennsyl vania last spring killed more’ than had been killed in the same way during the whale of the year before. We have re corded, within the last two months, an account of more deaths from the breaking through of railroad bridges than we re member having ever heard of previous ly. And to crown all, we seldom pick up an exchange that contains no account of some disaster by lightning. This thing is certainly remarkoble, to say the least.— Montgomery Advertiser. Tax-Payers Convention. The present and prospective financial condition of Georgia, is well calculated to excite anxiety and alarm. How far tbc State is already in debt no one can tell. To meet the wasteful, iniquitous and criminal expenditures of the pres ent Radical administration, the people will be heavily taxed. With short crops nnd crippled industries they arc ill prepared to meet these onerous exactions. What is the lemody? We have alrea dy suggested a Convention of the tax payers—without regard to race or color, or party —to consider calmly the real financial condition and material interests of the State ; present it to the Legisla ture and demand a reform. It will Lave a good effect on that body, for the mem bers will not dare to disregard the voice of the people they represent. We have also suggested that this Convention meet in Macon in October next, during the State Fair. Let every county bo repre sented. Delegates to the State Agricul tural Convention might represent both interests, which indeed are one insepa rable. Will our cotemporaries urge the people to move in this matter ? It may cheek the extravagant expenditures of tho Government, save the State from bankruptcy, and the people from intol erable burdens. We say again let the sovereigns speak !— Greensboro Herald. We clip the following from the Atlan ta Sun, of yesterday: Ysterday, Isaac P. Urns, Treasurer of the State Road under Fostor Blodgett, and B. W. Wrenn, the General Passenger and Ticket Agent under the same ad ministration, aud still holding that posi tion under Gov. Brown, were arrested Both were charged with larceny after trust. Tliey waived an examination,and each gave bond iu the sum of SIO,OOO. Wo learn that Mr. Harris admits tiiat he has money in his hands belonging to tho State, which he is ready to pay over to any one authorized to receive it, and has been rgpdy to do so ever since tho lease, whenever he can, by so doing, have his bondsmen relieved. We aro also informed that Mr. Wrenn makes the same or a similar statement. Sad Affliction. —Wo Baw a telegraph ic dispatch yesterday from Col. Warren Aiken, of Cartersvillo, to Col. Prather, of this city, in which he says that two of his children had died that morning with something like diptheria, and a third one was hopelessly ill. Paid into the ' Treasury. —We learn Mr. C. P. McCalla, the General Book keeper of the State Road, has paid over to tho State Treasurer several thousand dollars of restitution money which has lately come into his Lauds. Gov. Bullock. —Wc learn that he will return to this city pn the Ist of Septem ber. Wearegliidof this. He is need ed here now, and ought to have been here for the past three months. lie could have been of great assistance to those employed in working up cases of State Road defalcation. lion. Alex. Delmar, editor of tho.New York National Intelligencer, in a letter to Col. Dul’rco, of the Memphis Appeal, concludes as follows on the subject of the ‘New Departure’: “I am no truckler to Southern senti ment or any other sentiment. I desire no office ; I ask no favors; and I would not cross the door of my study for all tho votes iu the conDtry; but I admire intellect and revereucc truth and virtue; and a careful and comprehensive glance at the whole political field since 1861, compels me to say that neither truth, virtue nor brains have developed them selves in American politics sinco the fa tal day. when to the great joy of all the little minds, and the profit of all the lit tle men iu the country, the delegation of Southern representatives left the Con gress of the United States.” One sad tragedy is drawing to a close. Galignani’s Messenger reports that “Poor Ciiarlotta,” widow of the late Maximilian of Mexico, and only sis ter of Leopold 11, the present King of the Belgians, is daily growiug worse, and that her death is near at hand. We are told that “she has frequent periods of prostration, which sometimes lasts for forty-eight hours, and during which she can take no food. Although only thirty six years of age, her constitution is com pletely broken down, and fears are en tertained that an existence, marked with such terrible disasters, is approach ing its end.” An Appetite. —A Virginia oditor, in noticing the statement that tigbt-lacing saves tlie country $2,000,000 annually in board alone, says it is a villainous aud habitual lie. He knows a girl who laces so tight that bis arm will go round her and lap over clear to the elbow; and one wouldn’t think, to look at her, that she could eat anything but soup, but she’s got an appetite like a cross-cut saw, and she mows a swath at a table like a self raking reaper.— American Paper.
