Disgraceful Murders.
Last week wo .published the fact
that the negro who murdered a Cupt.
Butler of Augosta had been shot by a
mob of citizens, having been captured
by them from tho officers of the'law.—
T his week we have been called on to
publish rth aiKnr that .will cause the
blood to run chill. At Pickettsville,
Gibson county West Tennessee, six
teen negroes in jail for riotous couduct
and threats to burn the town, were ta
ken out by a mob and shamefully mur
dered by shooting.
In neither of these cases was there
a shadow of excuse for mob law. The
wretched-negro criminals were sure of
legal punishment, and the fact that
they were malefactors does not relieve
their self elected. executioners of the
moral and legal guilt of the crime of
murder.
There is no crime that cannot be
reached and punished under the laws
of Georgia or Tennessee. Mob vio
lence is without excuse.
As a white man and a Democrat we
wash onrhands of tiny indorsement of
lynch law. : -
Such outrages as the above have
been the food upon which the party of
our oppressors' has lived for six years.
They roll the barbarous details, under
their tongues, and joyfully bail them,
as excuses for further oppressions of
our already ruined country.
In name of justice and humanity we
raise our feeble voice in condemnation
of the men who thus attempt to inau
gurate a reign: of terror in the South.
industry and enterprise to the late
revolution in Southern labor. After
giving illustration of the disproportion
of cotton a^d tillagecrops, the Union
and American says:
Tide water and river lands in New
York, similar to those in Chatham
County, are worth §100 an acre to
raise hay for cpnsnmption in Savan
nah,. Macon and Augusta. Grass
lands quite as good or better in Geor
gia, cannot be sold for fifty cents an
acre. Husbandly does not exist in
the planting districts of the South;
and, so far ns we can see, no city like
Savannah apd Nashville tries to intro
duce it.
Wealth comes from production,
and production is in its advanced
state, a matter of science. Where
Tennessee and Georgia have two acres
corn and cotton they should have six
in grass which will grow without
plowing and very little labor. It is
husbandry time feeds and fattens
northern cities; and the want of hus
bandry that makes Savannah poorer
in 1874 than she was in 1873. Capi
tal must be taken from Southern soil
with less labor, and from a vastly
greater - su: face. To do this more
knowledge of husbandry is needed.
Unfortunately, farm. economy is
neither taught nor studied in South
ern schools; it is not popular, and
therefore makes no progress from one
decade to another. At the same time,
there is an increase of old fields, an in
crease of emigration to the West-, and
a decrease in the m nrket value of
plantations. Savannah, one of the
oldest commercial cities on the Atlan
tic with many local advantages, feels
unmistakably some of the evils that
result from this defective system of
industry. A good husbandman hus
bands fertility, and augments it in his
fields to enrich his county and State,
and, steadily increase population.
That there is a vast amount of truth
in these reflections cannot be denied.

ceit out of a kangaroo. But it is quite
another thing, and more difficult, to
foretell which direction he proposes
to take, and whether he will get a
good rise and do his best, or jockey
for a bet. Some men, perhaps several
have been known to figure up large for
tunes on paper. Well, say what we will,
that is the easiest way to make them.
The real object of this communica
tion is to laj before your readers afew
simple figures, the absolute correct
ness of which can be proven at-any
time. Theie is a vast amount of truth in
these figures, as well a bit of sng-
gestiveness which may interest inqui
ries minds. Iu the month of August,
certain parties whose credit is better
than some, bought supplies without
money. It is expected that they will
pay their bill inside of three months—
perhaps in two mont-lis,
They bought bacon at 17 cents the
cash price of which was 14 cents.—
The difference is 21 per cent., or 7
per cent per month if they pay in
tli^ee months, or 10i if they pay in
tiromoutbs.
They bought flour at $7 worth $5 50
cash, a, difference of 27 per cent, or 9
per cent per month if the bills rnn
three months, or 13i if they run only
two mouths.
They bonght coffee at 40 cents
worth 30 cents cash, a difference of 33
per cent, or 11 per cent per month
for three months, or 161 for two
month, or at the rate of 198 per cent
per annum.
In seme eases 21 per cent in the
way of interest bus been piled on top
of these prices and included in the
face of a lien draft given to close the
account:
The man must feel happy, and
prond, and important whose credit is
discounted at these rates.

An Honest Confession-
In 1872 the vote, of Arkansas was
declared by the Radical manipulators
to be 41,784 for Baxter, Grant Badical,
and 38,673 for Brooks, .Greely Con
servative. Since the Brooks and Bax
ter imbroglio of last winter, an appeal
has been,made to a Congressional in
vestigating committee, and the election
returns of 1872, when submitted to
the committee at Little Bock under
oath, showed 38,998 for Baxter and
48,551 for Brooks. This is conclasive
proof -that tlie Greeley Conservatives
or Democrats carried Aakaneas by' 9,-
553 majority. Yet it was counted for
Grant. And those who perpetrated
the fraud dire the parties to expose
and acknowledge -it-. Such are the
fruits of Republican rale.- And their'
fonts in mathematics have not been
confined to Arkansas'of to the South.
One thing is certain, however; poor
