Letters from talbotton.
Hibvev s Hotel, March 20, 1873.
Editors Sun : Business seems to be
brisk here, as the planters in this section
are matin# very extensive preparations
for lar#p crops, yet here, as in almost
every other place tacit we have visited,
numerous empty stores are to be seen in
the business portion of the town. 2'he
merchants and planters, we regret to
say, are doing their trading- in Macon,
that, they think, being in a condition to
offer them better bargains, and to give
them greater pecuniary assistance in
their farming operations. The only way
in which this trade can be brought back
to Colunibns, for the present at le ist,
seems to us to be in the building of a
branch road to connect with the North
and South Railroad. The present mode
of reaching /albotton, via. Geneva, is bv
a tedious rough ride in a stage, and
over a hilly, bad road. Only give the
people of this section a direct railroad
connection with Columbus, and your
city can rest assured that all the cotton
and trade of Talbot county will flow
back to her warehouses, and her mer
chants, and add largely to the business
and wealth ot both.
Active efforts are now being made
here to rebuild the hotel which was
burned down last year. It is proposed
to erect a large and handsome brick
building, one that can bo used as a hotel
for summer visitors. 7’albotton has ma
ny attractions for a summer resort. It
is a very healthy location, with delight
ful and varied scenery, line drives and
walks, a highly educated and refined
country, handsome residences, and the
most charming and beautiful young la
dies to be found in any country, as your
correspondent can testify, he having en
joyed, with his friend Gorman, the so
ciety of one of tho rarest represen
tatives of this class, “whose sweet smile
haunts me still.” And in addition to
■all these, Talbotton has one of the best
hotel men in the world, in whose hands,
assisted by his excellent lady, such a ho
tel as we have mentioned would prove
a complete success. With such a hotel
in full operation, mid our good friend
Harvey to welcome its guests at the
door in his cordial way, Talbottou can
expect to become a most popular sum
mer resort.
Several new stores-—some wooden and
others brick structures— have been erect
ed during the past year, one of which,
a handsome brick, is occupied by the
Standard office, and also by one of the
propietors, Mr. O. D. Gorman,as a mer
cantile house. Messrs. GoiTnan A
Holmes have recently purchased the
Standard, Mr. O. L). Gorman being edi
tor in chief and J. B. Gorman corres
ponding editor. They are both educated
gentlemen, and very popular in this
community. To them and to their ge
nial local editor we are indebted for the
most generous and cordial hospitalities.
In fact, we have never visited a place
where we have been treated with gi eat
er kindness, or where we felt more at
home. Messrs. W. J. Weekes & Cos.,
who carry on a very extensive business
here, have also been very obliging to us
and shown themselves possessed of a
desire to have strangers see and appre
ciate their beautiful town. At this es
tablishment we found Mrs. L. L. Hill,
formerly of your city, who has charge of
an extensive millinery department, over
which she presides with her accustomed
skill and excellent taste. Her employers
speak Ot her success in the most flutter
ing terms, and in a manner that would
be most gratifying to her numerous
friends in your city.
Sidney llebdlbt.
Rocky Height, March 20, 1573.
Editors Sim: Through the generous
hospitality of our old and popular friend,
John B. Goriuan, of the Standard, we
are enabled to date tills letter from his
attractive ami delightful country-seat—
appropriately called Rocky Height—
which is located in a romantic section
of Talbot county, yet only about three
miles from town. The scenery is varied
and far-reaching, and the bracing air
from the adjoining hills is quite invigo
rating.
* * * 4c * ♦ *
This being our first visit to Talbot
county, we have seen much to delight
the eye and please the fancy. More
beautiful and attractive residences, or a
liner display of floral adornments, we
have not seen in any portion of the South,
nor have we conversed with a more in
telligent and energetic class of jieople.
With minds well-trained and developed,
and physical energies in active use, the
men of this jeouuty are worthy the high
reputation they have secured for them
selves abroad. We have conversed to
day, accidentally, with students of old j
Harvard, the tune-honored Princeton,
beloved Columbia, as well as of other 1
Northern and European colleges of the
highest character, which sh wvs that
home and foreign travel and culture
have had au opportunity to spread their
benefieiai influences throughout this
community. The youth of Talbot coun
ty are wall provided with educational (
facilities calculated to prepare them for
the best * colleges in the laud. <he old
aiid weMfaown Colliusworth Institute,
for the past twelve years under the di
rection of Prof. J. T. McLaughlin and
his esteemed lady, is still in successful
operation,although, like all other similar
schools, it does not boast of the pros
perity that characterized its operations
before tho war, when the abundance of
wealth made it an easy matter for a
planter to give all his children the best
educational advantages of that period.
This popular Institute is delightfully
situated, being one mile a half from the
town, and has an abundance of good
water, breeing nir and attractive scenery.
The boarding pupils are members of the
family of the Principal, where they find
all the comforts of home, and enjoy the
society of a very attractive family circle.
LeVert Female College affords similar
advantages to the young ladies, and we
notice among its pupils several from
your city. The music department is
ably presided over by Mrs. Vandenburg,
formerly of Columbus, who seems to
give general satisfaction to her patrons.
Since w riting our last letter from here,
H has come to our knowledge that con
siderable cotton lias gone to your city
from this county during the past season,
although Macon is certainly covering
this section with the footprints of drum
mers. One or two tirst-cluss wholesale
houses ill Columbus, with a branch rail
road from this place to some point on
the North and South Railroad, and the
entire trade of this whole region of
country, rich in its productiveness,
would naturally flow into your ware
houses and stores. If Columbus ever
expects to compete with Macon on tho
one side and Columbus on the other,
she must build up in her midst one or
two first-class wholesale houses—estab
lishments that will be able to compete
with those of her sister cities. With
these in lull operation,and the proposed
new factories she will become a great
commercial as well as a great manufac
turing city. Sidney Heiibekt
Negotiations have been completed
for a postal treaty with .Sweden, tho
rate of letter postage being fixed at
nine cents.
The w hole length of railroads in the
United States is now seventy thousand
one hundred and seventy-eight miles,
with forty-three thousand miles in

By a recent law passed in Kentucky,
it is provided that grand and petit ju
rors shall not be eligible to serve at two
successive terms of court. This is in
tended to abate the abominable nuis
ance of professional jurors.
The present Pennsylvania Legislature
must be a fine body if the following,
from the Philadelphia Press, is correct :
“There is nut au hour that this body
is in session in which a swindle is not
introduced in some guise or other. Let
the people pray for an early adjourn
ment.”
F bench Commerce. —How little France
was hurt, in a material sense, by the
late war, is indicated by the fact that
her imports and exports last year
amounted to 7,617,000,000 francs-show
ing a greater commercial activity than
existed at the most prosperous epoch
of the empire.
The German army is being thorough
ly reorganized, and, among the addi
tions lately made, is a railway battalion,
trained for the service and working of
the railways in time of war. Their su
periority iu this department gave the
Germ ms a great advantage over the
French iu the late struggle.
The passage by botu houses of Con
gress of the bill authorizing the laying
of the ne w telegraph cable between Cal
ifornia and Japan gives a kind of olli
cial sanction to that enterprise, and
will probably in sure its success. This
is the last link in the great electric
chain, and when it is completed we
shall bo able to put a girdle round the
earth iu a shorter time than Puck.
The Washington .Star has an elabo
rate calculation of the money taken
from the Treasurer by the new salary
bill, compared with the amounts taken
to pay the fortieth Congress. Making
a proper alloweuce for the difference in
the number of members, and deducting
the mileage paid for the extaa sessions,
the difference i551,170,000, which rep
resents the back pay taken by the forty
second Congress.
Gband Masteb of England. — We are
pleased to see that the Earl of Itipon
has been again re-elected Grand Master
of the Free Masons of England, for, in
the world-wide brotherhood, whatever
concerns the prosperity of our Grand
Lodge is deeply interesting to the breth
ren all over the earth. The Earl is said
to be a mason of great attainments in
the love of the craft, as well as most pop
ular in England, in which kingdom he
has been many times re-elected to the
exalted position so worthily filled by
distinguished monarchs and noblemen
I from the time of King Alfred to the
present day.

I've thought of thee while the world hath slept
In the still anil slanit hours ;
When my soul a solemn vi il kept,
With its own mysterious powers ; *
Or wandering tor on the rushing lido

Was a constant thought of thee.
Thou hast conic to me in tho hour of prayer,
Mid holy thoughts' and true ;
When dreams of bliss for earth too fair.
Were rising on my view ;
’Mid ' ild conceptions rare and grand,
Thut spring in fancy free,
And visions fair of the happy land,
Has cornea thought ot thee.

When roaming tar ami aide.

The leading naturalist of the world,
Prof. Agassiz, lias been lecturing in San
Francisco, and is reported by tlic San
Francisco Scientific Press to have said:
“I have pointed out over a hundred
specific differences between the botial
and the nervous systems of the white
man and the negro. Indeed, their
frames are alike in no particular. There
is no hone in the negro’s body which
is relatively of tho same shape, size, ar
ticulation, or chemically of the same
composition as that of the white man.
7 lie negro’s bones contain far greater
proportion of calcareous salts than those
of the white man. Even the negro’s
! blood is chemically a verv different flu
id from that which courses in tho veins
of the white gum. The w hole physical
organization of the negro differs quite
as much.from the white man’s as it does
from that of the chimpanzee—that is,
i ni his bones, muscles, nerves and fibres,
I the chimpanzee has not much farther to
progress to become a white mini. This
fact science inexorably demoustales.
“Climate has no more to do with the
diffcrence'hetween tho white man and
the negro than it has with that between
the negro and the chimpanzee, or it has
between the horse and the ass, or the
eagle and the owl. Each is ft distinct
and separate creation. The negro and
the white man were created as specifi
cally different us the owl and the eagle.
They were disigned to fill different places
in the system of nature. The negro is no
more a negro by accident or mi fortune
than the owl is the kind of a bird lie is
by accident or misfortune. The negro
is no more tile white man’s brother than
the owl is the sister of the eagle, or the
ass the brother ol the horse. How stu
! pendoiis, and yet how simple, is the
} doctrine (hat the Almighty, maker of
j the universe lias created different spe-
I cies of men just as He has different spe
c.es of the lower animals, to fill differ
ent places and offices in tho grand ma
chinery of nature.”
The same views wore long ago ex
pressed by scientific men in the .South
ern States of America, and some ten or
twelve years ago were boldly defended
by a distinguished member of the Brit
ish Scientific Association in London.
These facts,if they are facts are pregnant
with the most important political and
social deductions—-which are sufficient
ly obvious.—- T Hegroph fi M.

Anew army organization has been
adopted in the Russia, based on the
Prussian system of general compulsory
service, and will go into operation in
1871. It will augment the infantry of
the lino by 100,000 men, and the artil
lery by ninety rifled and eighteen rni

; mobilization. It provides for the train
