ROME, GEORGIA, SATURDAY MORNING, JULY 10, 1875. VOL. 14, NO 100 Tho Great Earthquake. New York, July 4.-—Later mail ad vices from different places in Colom bia more than confirm tho horrors by tho earthquake in May. A letter from Salaza, dated May 2Sth, says: “Cucuta is a pitiful sight. Everything is in ruins. Not a houso remains stand ing. Thieves and robbers from the sur rounding country lmvo swept down on the illfatcd city, and hardly a single safe has been saved from tho custom house. Four hundred mules were kill ed in tho streets, and as there is no ono to remove them the stench is becoming frightful. The villages of San Custobal, Farina, Guassimo, Capacho, San Anto nio, Lobalera, San Juan de Urcna, Ro- osario and San Oayetuna are complete ly destroyed. The store houses at Puerto de los Cachos was sacked and burned by tho bandits.” A letter from Ocana, dated May 30th, says: ‘‘Ten thousand peoplo were killed in Cucuta, in addition to other thousands who were seriously wounded and bruised. Death and desolution reigned everywhere. A great number of haciendas have been destroyed, and hundreds of houses in the country have been overthrown, leaving tho people homeless and, consequently, in pover ty. Many of the trees were torn up by the roots and small hills were open ed like a melon. The cause of the great catastrophe is, of course, unknown, as well as tho preciso place of its first manifestation. Some suppose that the volcano of Sohotera, which was in action in 1848, is againn breaking out while others say that a new volca no has appeared in the hills of Gira- cha.” A private letter from Bucarmanga of May 24th, says that in Piedecucsta flic town hall is destroyed, and in Pam plona tho cathedral is in ruins. A tele gram from lion. Aquilo Barra to Pre sident Perez, dated Bucaramanga. May 24th, says : “The earthquakes contin ued last night, and the Cathedral in Pampalona fell. Thero is great alarm and great devastation throughout the Valley of Cucuta.” Dispatch from President Perez, from Chinacota May 2-lth says: “The popu lation of San. Jose, Rosanio and San Cayetano have disappeared. Tho rest of the department is in its ruins. There aro more than 4,000 victims. A dis patch from Socorro, dated May 24, says: “The situation is assuming a grave aspect, and sickness and starva tion in Pampalona are incrcaseing.” Telegram from Chiquniquria, of May 22d, says: “The shocks nro re- appeating. There were t.vo last night and one to-day. There is a great alarm among the people. Appeals for help were being circulated through all the cities of Colombia, and tho most liberal responses were being made.” Raising Mules. There is a great amount of money an nually flowing out of this section forthe purchase of mules. The number sold in Valdosta in one year will exceed five hundred, making at least 875,000 sent away from this immediate sec tion. The mule is a hardy animal, and it seems to us that there is no reason why it cannot be raised in Southern Geor gia ns well as Kontucky. It is true that we have not tho blue grass pastures of that region, but there are thousands of acres of cleared land in the county laying idle that could easily he put down in oats at a very small cost, and quantities of food for the young mules raised. ^ Besides, tho Bermuda grass grows well in this soil, and makes fine pastures. Our farmers could turn their attention, to a ccrtnin extent, to rais ing this grass, and afford everything necessary for this part of a stock farm. We simply throw out the suggestion hero, and hope our farming friends will think of it. Wo would like to see some one import several superiorbrood mares and a jack, and make the experiment. If this great flow of money could he re tained in our own section ’it would rc- sultin groat good to our common coun try.— Valdosta Times. The Philadelphia Telegraph, in a gusli of Centennial (Philadelphia) ardor devotes a half column to unseemly ridi cule of tho Washington monument, which it calls “that dreadful monu ment,’’and ugly smokestack south of the Whito House.” Just now the Telegraph is advocating a score or more of Revo lutionary monuments which it is pro posed to rear in Philadelphia, and it seems probable that tho contributions for tho Washington monument aro cov eted for these looal enterprises whiph aro to adorn Philadelphia, Howover unfortunate tho present Washington monument project has been, it would soem proper to completo it, as it has been on hand for nearly fifty years. —Courier-Journal. Tho Knoxvillo Pmi and Herald says white wheat is a drug in that market at a dollar. Dispatches from the coun ties in the Cumberland valley state that the grain crop will bo heavier than for the past fifteen years. Not only is the quantity remarkably large, but the quality is also superior to that of many years. «— A young man who was recently arrested in Dublin, Irelaud, is thought to be Arthur Galt, who absconded from Lynchburg, V,n., with §10,000 of bank funds. Last Week’s Cotton Figures: Tho Now York Commercial and Finan cial Chronicle reports total receipts of the seven days ending last Friday night, 2d instant, at 6,108 bales against 8,457 tho corresponding week of last year. Total receipts since 1st September 3,256,934 bales against 3,761,017 for tlio corresponding period of tho previous cotton year—showing a deficit of 303,088 bales. Receipts at tho_ interior ports for the seven days, 1,872. bales against 3,457 the corres ponding week of last year. Shipments 6,258 against 8,135. Stocks, 25,580 against 56,246. Tho Chronicle's cotton supply table shows 2,565,578 bales against 2,766,736 in 1874 and 2,600.072 in 1873—exhib iting a decrease of 201,218 bales as compared with the supply of 1874, and of 34,484 compared with that of 1873. The price of middling uplands in tho Liverpool market last Friday was 7 3-16; at the same date in 1874 it was 85; and in 1873 8!. The Chronicle's weather reports con tinue unusually favorable, except some local droughts in Texas and excess of rain in Mississippi. The mercury aver ages reported arc, 85 in Galveston; 84 inlndianola; 86 in Corsicana; 79 in New Orleans ; 87 in Shreveport; 79 in Memphis; 77 in Nashville and Vicksburg; 88 in Columbus, Missis sippi ; 81 in Mobile and Selma; 83 in Montgomery87 in Atlanta, 81 in Macon ; 83 in Columbus; 82 in Savanrah and .Augusta, and 63 in Charleston. The Now York market during the week was embarrassed by unfavorable trade reports from Europe and the pros pects of a heavy growing crop. -Sheep Raising. The Chattanooga Times, of Wednes day, speaks of a call from Mr. C. W. Howard, a distinguished writer'upon the agricultural and mineral resources of his native State of Georgia. Mr. Howard informs us that ho has sold his property near Kingston, and has purchased 3,000 acres on Lookout Mountain, near Rising Fawn, where he intends to go extensively into sheep raising, in addition to the cultivation of fruits and vegetables. He has ten acres in Irish potatoes at present, from which he expects to raise 1,000 bushels, with no other manure than wood ashes. Mr. Howard is also interested in a coal mine on top of tho mountain, in the upper carboniferous formation, from which ho hopes some day to supply Chattanooga, by means of a narrow gaugo railroad along tho summit of the mountain, on a level to the point, and thence by an incline to Chatta nooga. We should be glad to see the whole summit of mountain occupied by such experienced and successful farmers as Mr. Howard, for Chattanoo ga is the natural mnrketof the produc tions. Declaration of Independence.— Washington, July 7.—At tho colored people's celebration of the tho 4th at Hill’s Dale, near this city, Prof. Lang ston said lie was there to declare inde pendence for all who wero his followers. The hour is come when wo must throw off this yoke of oppression and stand up for our rights as freemen. Tho signs of tho times demand wo shall prove our fitness for all duties of citizenship. The hour is come when .we must man age our own institutions. If wo have colored churches, then givo us colored preachers. If we have colored banks we must have colored bankers. If we have colored schools, let us have our own teachers. If we havo colored colleges, then we must havo our offi cers. Wo have played the second fid dle too long. We want, we must havo, a chango for the better. New Departure.—The.correspondent of the Courier-Journal, writing from At lanta, “looks with interest to the next departure of Jeffersonian Demooraoy in Georgia.” The Jeffersonian Demo crats of Georgia adhere to tho old land marks of liberty and the faith of the Fathers. The “new departures” havo been all on the other side. We shall “look with Interest to tho new depart ure of the presont Greeley faotion, es pecially from those who are Democrats when it suits their purpose, and never meant to be Democrats when occasion served.—Augusta Constitutionalist. Carl Schurz is treated more royally in Germany than a prince of the blood would be. A marked contrast is the style of this reception with the manner of his departure from his fatherland j but then the times are also different. The Cologne QateUe of the 10th inst. contains an aoeount of his visit to the House of Representatives in Beilin, accompanied by Mr. Kapp, formerly a Commissioner of Emigration in New York, and now a member of the Prus sian Parliament, He received a hearty welcome. • General W. S. Rosecrans writes to the Herald a letter in which the conduct of General Sherman is severely oritieised, and the “calumnies” or Badeau’s “Life of Grant” are alluded to. General Roseorans intimates that he, too may yet give some annals to the world. The Hon. Asa Packer, of Mauoh Chunk, ope of Pennsylvania’s railroad magnates, is said to bo worth 820,000,- 000. His life began a poor bey. Southern Words- The English languago is spokon with greater purity by the educated classes, and more correctly by the peasantry of tho Southern States than in any- other section of the Un ion. .There are two words in common use nt the South of Potomac. The word “fice,” to designate a small, worth less our, is, according to Dr. Scheie de Vere, legitimately derived from the Anglo-Norman. The floe, ho says, is the lost small remnant of tho English foisting cur, or foisting hound, and quotes Nares as giving the* whole pro cess of gradual corruption: Foisting, foisty, foist, fyst, fyce, and fice. A fist ing hound is mentoined in Harrison’s England. ' The word “ tote,” in such general use over the South, has equally as legiti mate a derivation. The other day a Georgia paper said that Mr. A. H. Stephens could not havo made a cer tain remark, because he understood the English language too well to make use of such a slang word as “ tote.” We resent the indignity cast upon “ tote.”- We cling^o “ tote” as the Anglo-Saxon nation cling to Magna Charta. It re minds as of our descent from a liberty- loving people,and preserves the memory of justice. The writ by which a peas ant aggieved in tho Baron’s court was enabled to carry (tollore) his case up to the court was known as the writ of tolt, pronounced commonly tote. This privilege which the humble farmer had of toting his caso up from his own landlord to a less prejudiced court was dear to every Englishman. Tho peo ple of the South will not surrender that word. It is as dear to our yeomen as the Common Law itself. Beautiful and True.—In a recent letter, Judge John P. King quotes tho following sentenco from Hon. B. If. Hill, which ho says is the most beauti ful and patriotic sentiments ever ut tered in any language.” It was used iu a lottcr accepting the nomination of delegate to the State Convention of 1860: “ But I Bhall dissolve this Union as I would bury a benefactor; never through choice, only from necessity,and then in sadness and sorrow of heart,, for after all, tire Union is not the au thor of our grievances. Bad, extreme men, in both sections insult each other, and then both fight the Union, that never harmed or insulted either. Per haps it has blessed all above their mer its. For myself, I shall never ask for more true liberty and real happiness under any government than I enjoyed as a citizen of this American llnion. May they who would destroy this Un ion in a frolic, have wisdom to furnish our children a better one.” The Grant administration decap itates its friends without a word of warning, and so rapidly as to make their heads swim ; and this, too, with out any charge against them, so far as the public aro advised. We have late ly had throe notable cases in this—Col. Taylor, postmaster at this place, Dr. Bard, postmaster at Atlanta, and Col. Holtzclaw, Revenue collector of this District. These gentlemen have given entire satisfaction to tho people. We have not hoard a word of com plaint against thorn; but “ all this availeth nothing.” Tho decree goes forth, “Off with his head 1 So much for Buckingham!”—Athens Watchman. An old gentleman gives the Elberton Gazette a remedy for snake-bites or in sect stings,- which he has never known to fail. Immediately upon being bitten or stung, or as soon as possible there after, apply a piece of moistened cop peras to the wound, and keep it there until the effects of the poison disap pears. The copperas can bo applied with a bandage, or a large lump plaoed on the wound, to which it will adhere as the madstone Is said to do. Whon the lump drops off it should be re placed by another pieoo, moistened as the first, and this kept up until the adhering ceases. The Washington Republican is dovo- ting all its energies to an attempt to slaughter Vice President Wilson. It thinks that “a common Bense of grati tude to the Republican organization” should have lea the V. P. to “linger through its constitutional term in mod esty ard meekness.” The semi-official organ, the Chroniole, mildly remon strates with the Republican. The Radi cal brethren are having a nloo little quarrel over the "great moral states man," . . There is a projeot on foot in Louis iana to separate the manufacture of sugar from the raising of cane. If this Is carried out less oapital will be re quired to engage in the production of sugar, as one large sugar mill can meet the demands of a score or moro of small planters. It Is calculated that 75,000 Americans have gone over to Europe to see what they can see this summer, and that the husbands will lay out over there fifty millions of dollars in new whistles for their wives and daughters. A few thing- erabobs are necessary, of oourse. An Iowa judge dug his political grave by deciding that playing billiards, tho loser paying for the game, is gam bling. Special Notices. Newspaper Advertising. Nowspaper advertising li now recognlmed by business men, having faith in their own warei, as tho moat effective means of aocuring for their goods a wide reoognition of their merits. Newspaper advertising Impels inquiry, and when the article offered ia of good quality and at a fair price, the natural rosulta is inoreaaod sales. Newspaper adveriising Is a permanent addi tion to the reputation of the goods advertised, booauae it ia a permanent Influence always at work in their interest. Newspaper advertising is ths most energetto and vigilant nt salesmen; addressing thousands each day, always in the advertiser’s intorest, and ceaselessly at work seeking customers from all classes. Newspaper advertising promotos trade, for even In the dulloat time- advertisers secure by far the largest share of what is being done.— John Manning THE ROME HOTEL, BROAD BTREET, NEAR RAILROAD DEPOT (Formoriy Tennessee House) J.

T HE LONG-ESTABLISHED REPUTATION of THE COURIER as a ilrst-clais journal has giron it a wida circulation in Cherokee Georgia, and an influence and poaition not eur* passed by any paper in this region of the State. It has always boon a bold and determined de fender of tho rights of the people and the advo cate of the interests of this section. ITS POLITICS. While THE COURIER is thoroughly Demo cratic, It has never surrendered its right to condemn all impolitic moaoures whether ther originate with its own party or that of the oppo sition. No paper can bo truly Democratic that is not truly indopondont. To bo merely partisan is descending to a lovel of aubservieuey THE COURIER will rover stoop to. Fealty to tho Democratic party ia based on the principle that tho Democratic party shall be true to the Peoplo—that the machinery of ite organization shall bo controlled by the people, and not by tricksters and offlco*aeekors who may doslre to uao it for sol fish purposes and for the promotion of tho aspirations and intrigues of rings and cllrjUGSs AS A NEWSPAPER, THE COURIER will bo found equal to that of any journal in tho Btato with the same advan tages as to its location and field of labor. Ne pains will be Bpared to collate such lecord of pftBBing ovents as to give its readors a general idea of the current news of tho day, and to keep them posted on all matters aflooting their right# and interests. AS A FAMILY JOURNAL, THE COURIER will contain every week selec tions from literary writers as will make it a favorite In the family olrole. Short stories and humorous paragraphs will bo found in each number as a diversion to tho general reader. THE MAMMOTH WEEKLY. This Is a largo and woll-fillod papor of thirty- two columns — not moro than seven or eight columns being given to advertisements. This ie madft up from the triweekly editions, which, when put together, presents a large mass ot the choicest reading—politics, tho news, literature and local lntelligouco—giving each week twjn- ty-four or twenty-five columns of solid reading. The Weekly is especially a fitst-class iournal. To tlie 3?u.l>lic. With an increase to its already large circula tion, wc hope to make THE COURIER r.ome up hig&est standard of journalism, and to make it popular among tho people everywhere.
