WEDNESDAY MORNING, JULY lfi, 1873.
Facts—Not Theories.
Here are a few plain facts that are
worth more as a basis for the action of
manufacturers with capital to invest,
than all the gas, anil all the fine-spun
and plausible theories the combined
press of the South could publish in a
twelve-mouth: The Columbus, Georgia,
factories have taken thus far this year
six thousand two hundred and eight
bales of cotton, against four thousand
nine hundred and eleven last year. It
this cotton had been sold at eighteen
cents per pound it would have realized
five hundred and fifty-eight thousand
seven hundred -and twenty dollars. It:
was passed through the Columbus mills, I
its value trebled, and sold to the coun-!
try North, South, East and West for
one million six hundred and seventy-six
thousand one hundred and sixty dollars.
Thus, Columbus cleared one million one
hundred and seventeen thousand four
hundred and forty dollars, and retains
the money there because she has the
spirit to erect and maintain the factories.
And her people have not only shown
the pluck and enterprise to build these
cotton factories, but have demonstrated
that such works pay by declaring round
dividends to the stockholders, while the
average wages paid are a shade higher
than those paid to operatives at the
North. And this difference in wages is
more than saved in the saving of freights.
It is a very plain proposition that if the
manufacture of cotton in the Now Eng
land States is profitable, nothing but
ignorance of the business or bad manage
ment can make it a failure in the South.
If the owners of the Trion factory,who
have to wagon every thing they consume
or manufacture from twenty to thirty
miles over bad roads, can, as they have
done, make the manufacturing of cotton
yarns and goods pay, what is to hinder
Chattanooga from realizing a larger
profit? —Chattanooga I'unes.
Profanity never did any man the least
good. No man is the richer, or hap
pier, or wiser for it. It is disgusting to
the refined; abominable to the good;
insulting to those with whom we
associate; degrading to the mind: un
profitable and injurious to good socie
ty.
Some men at Louisville were betting
on the weight of a large mule, when one
man, who was a good judge of the
weight of live stock, got behind the
mule and was measuring, when some
thing appeared to loos® up the mule.
Just before the expert died he gave
it as his opinion that if the mule was
as heavy all over as he was behind, he
must weigh not far from 47,000
pounds.
Never marry a man until you have
seen him eat. Let the candidate for
your hand, ladies, pass through the
ordeal of eating soft-boiled eggs. If he
can do it and leave the table cloth, and
napkin, and his shirt unspotted, take
him. Try him next with a sparerib. If
he accomplishes this feat without put
ting the bones into your lap, name the
wedding day at once—he will do to tie
to.
Legislation Controlled by Capital.—
The granting of enormous subsidies
in lands to railroads, and the confer
ring of special privileges and immuni
ties upon banking institutions, manu
facturing corporations, and other forms
of monopoly, have given them such
unnatural and overwhelming power, as
to control almost the whole legislation
of the country, both .State and Feder
al, and this power, if not promptly and
firmly grappled with and over thrown,
will soon overpower the people them
selves.—Free Trade Alliance.
The Columbus Sun is informed that
Georgia has credit for over thirty-one
thousand stand of arms at the Wash
ington Ordinance Department. An act
°f Congress rpproved March 3, 1873,
gives the annual quota of arms to States
which did not draw for the same from
1862 to 1869. The Department has
notified the several States that the
nrms due them now await the requi
sitions of the Governors. If companies
w ill notify Governor Smith of their
organization and the arms required, he
Fill make requisitions for them on
July Ist
The mummy cloths of Egypt, al
though woven over three thousand
years ago, seem as fine of texture as
when first from ancient looms.
WHat War Costs.
The cost of war, (says the Washing-
Star,) is simply incalculable. We refer
not to that ultimate cost of pain and
suffering and woe, but to the cost in
dollars anil cents.
It is estimated that three billions of
dollars would not make good the dam
age done to the South during the late
war, and that not less than five billion
dollars would bo required to cover the
losses of the North during the same
time. There are some items, liowover,
within our reach—items that go to
make up our official records—that serve
to show the magnitude of the late strug
gle. We get the "figures from a Mem
phis paper, and condense,' giving only
the principle items. The North paid
thoir troops $1,029,329,009. The cash
value of the supplies distributed by tue
Sanitary Commission was twelve mil
lion dollars. The Christian Commis
sion disbursed six and a quarter mil
lions. The aggregate military force
was 1,516,000. The total enlisted was
2,666,563. Soldiers killed or died of
wounds, 93,969; died of disease, 186,-
218; unknown, 24,184.
Resigned to iiis Fate.— When I was a
little baby, gals would never “let me bo,’
for every one would snatch me up aud
plaeo mo on her knee'; then to kiss,
squeeze, and hug me, I’m sure “dad”
and “mam” must have tyondered I sur
vived it—but I stood it like a lambi
And again, while but in boyhood, they’d
tempt me from my home, through gar
dens and through pleasure grounds,o’er
fairy spots to roam : then with luscious
fruits and sweetmeats my small tummy
they cram and half stifle me with kisses
—-but I stood it like a lamb! When old
er still,they’d lure me though dingle,dale
or dell to gather nuts, or flowers and
ferns—and they seem’d to love it well!
Yet startled, oft at trifles, with shriek
that seem’d no sham, they’d fling their
arms around me—but 1 stood it like a
lamb! At last one charming creature
(who could most ray soul entrance,) by
wondrous winning archness, and a ten
der, melting glance, seem’d to say, '“You
know you love me, why not take me as
I am ?” and I felt obliged to do it—but
I stood it like a lamb ! Thus through
childhood, youth anil manhood—uy!
each moment of my life—my heart has
felt the witching power of girl, or maid
or wife; anil the spell will leave me nev
er, like a potent dram, woman’s charms
’subdue me ever-—but “I stand it like a
lamb!”
Masonic.— Tlio Grand Lodge of Free
and Accepted Masons, now in session in
New York, having in consideration the
new constitution, adopted among the
amendments proposed, one providing
that the warrant of a lodge can be sur
rendered only when there cannot be
found among its members seven quali
fied brethren desirous of retaining the
same. An unaffiliated .Mason shall not
be allowed to visit any Lodge or join
any Masonic procession, or receive Ma
sonic relief or burial. No member shall
be permitted to sever his connection
from a Lodge of which he is a member
until he shall present a ticket from some
warranted Lodge that he has petitioned
for membership therein.
Grand Master Fox, in his annual ad
dress, stated that don-intercourse with
the Grand Orient of France and Grand
Lodge of Hamburg still continued, but
siuicable relations exist with all other
grand lodges in the world.
The official catalogue of the Vienna
Exposition is to be printed on English
daper, with .s'cotch ink, and on two
English presses, though it is to be got
ten up by a Vienna publisher.
The far famed purple dye of Car
thage, supposed to have been obtained
from a small shell-fish *of the Medi
terranean, has never been equaled by
modem chem is ts, who have thus far
failed to find anything possessing its
peculiar brilliancy and permanency of
color.
The Griffin .Star man, after serious in
quiry into the crop question, Bays:
•‘The general prospect is better than
any of the previous eight years of the
same date. All crops seems to have
hit. Cotton is better than ever, better
stands, and further advanced. Upland
com luxuriant, many farmers laying by.
Bottom corn promising well. Wheat
small acreage, but better than usual; no
sign of rust. Oats good, except such as
were winter killed. Clover fine. Fruit
first rate, and if this is n'ot a year of
plenty, there is no faith to be put in
prospects.
•‘WHAT IS IT BUT A MAP OF BUSY LIFE, ITS FLUCTUATIONS AND ITS VAST CONCERNS.”
TALBOTTON, GA., WEDNESDAY JULY 16, 1873.
The expenses of the Department of
Agriculture for the current year were
$179,339. Three thousand copies of
the report are to be published. The
copies will cost, therefore, about S6O
apiece.
Wo have always held to tlio theory
that commercial fertilizers are only ad
juncts to rational farming, and should
never form the bases of plant food.
The above corroborates what we have
often stated.— Ed. F. and O.
(The latest wrinkle in Florida is that
of organizing a joint stock company for
the purpose of purchasing a steamer
somewhere up North and fitting it up
as a river hotel. It is intended to have
suits of rooms fitted up in regular hotel
style, some for families, others for sin
gle tourist who may require but limited
accommodations in the way of room.
The Use of Commercial Fertilizers.
—A New England farmer gives the key
to the successful use of comm creial fer
tilizers when ho recommends the use
of more manure to the acre aud of com
mercial fertilizers enough to givo the
plant a good start. He claims it is
poor policy to substitute commercial
fertilizers for mauflre, and asserts it is
becau#- they do this that Massachusetts
farmers do not raise as good tobacco As
those of Connecticut. — Moore's Rural.
Modern Dictionary.— Water — A clear
fluid once used as a drink.
Tongue—A little horse that is contin
ually running away.
My Dear—An expression used by
man and wife at the commencement of
a quarrel.
Doctor—A man who kills you to-day
to save you from dying to-morrow.
Esquire—Everybody, yet nobody;
equal to Colonel.
State’s Evidence—A wretch who is
pardoned for being baser than his com
rades.
M oney—The good of the country.
Crime. — The last census exhibits
some facts which will do to reflect on as
showing the amount of criiqe in the va
rious conditions of society in Massa
chusetts and Georgia. In Massachu
setts, one person in every 577 is a crim
inal; in Georgia, only ■ one criminal in
every 1.606. Of the native whites in
M assachusetts, one in every 946 is a
criminal; of native whites in Georgia,
only one in every 4,982 is a convict. Of
the colored people in Massachusetts
there is one criintnal to every 100; in
Georgia, thero is one to every 913. For
eigners in Massachusetts are criminal
in the proportion of one to 286; in
Georgia only one in 799.
The Acreage in Cotton. —The Finan
cial Chronicle, in its issue of Juno 14,
1873, publishes a statement of the acre
age devoted to cotton in tlio South du
ring the present year. It is carefully
made up from information derived from
its correspondents in Texas, Louisianna,
Mississippi, Alabama, Georgia; South
and North Carolina, Tennessee and Ar
kansas. While all such reports are on
ly approximative, and the results of the
growth depend at last largely on tlio
weather, they possess considerable val
ue in assisting the calculations of those
who arc trying to forecast the results of
the crop, and, when put forth by good
authority, possess much interest for the
merchant and statistician. The Chron
icle makes the increase in 1873, as com
pared with 1872, amouut to eleven per
cent., Louisiana 13, .Mississippi 11, Ala
bama 12, Florida 8, Georgia 7, South
Carolina 4, North Carolina 10, Tennes
see 11, Arkansas 13, all others 6 per
cent. The total acreage is put down at
9,802,815, against 8,867,557 in 1872, 7,-
811,696 in 1871, and 8,885,545 in 1870.
Statistics gathered from reports of
the American Consulates in Germany
show how immeuse our imports are
from that empire. Prussia in the year
1872 sent us in values fourteen million
dollars, .Saxony ten millions, the bal
ance being contributed from Bavaria,
Baden and Wurtemberg. Cotton ho
siery appears as the most valuable arti
cle in this list of our drafts upon Ger
man industry. Woollen cloths are next
in amount. Hardware, ribbons, trim
mings, toys, musical instuinents, books,
furs, glass and earthenware, hops, leath
er and wines enter prominently into the
account. In this exhibit we see that
Germany, recovering from the diver
sion of her forces from industrial pur
suits consequent upon a state of war, is
rapidly enlarging her exports to this
country, and this increase may be taken
at an indication of proportionate growth
in her industrial production. Asa sup
plier of our wants she is far behind
France, all Germany selling in goods to
the value of twenty-seven millions, while
Paris alone exceeded that sum by more
than a million. .S’houd no warlike dis
turbance interfere, it is reasonable to
anticipate that our trade with Germany
•ft’ill continue steadily to increase.—Sa
vannah Advertiser and Republiian.
