Almost the entire town of Eldora do, in Butler county, Kansas, has been destroyed by a storm. The University of Georgia has ■ent out over twelve hnndred ites, of *hom eight hundred are now living. Columbus has just completed the annual examination of her public schools ending the fifth year since their organisation. The small-pox is raging in London. The mortality from this nasty disease, weekly, amounts to two hundred and forty deaths. General Lee’s famous and favorite war horse, Traveler, recently died from lock-jaw, caused by running a nail into his foot. The records of the Ordinary of Chatham show that licenses, for the month of June, have been issued to twenty-eight whites and forty-two blacks. On the 27th of June last the Democratic State Convention of Maine assembled at Augusta, Maine, and nominated Hon. Charles P. Kim ball as candidate for Governor. General Toombs made a Fourth of July speech in Wilkes couty to a large assembly of bis fellow citizens. We learn that the General borrowed Jupiters bolts and hurled them at the “New Departure.” The vacancy, caused by the mur der of Col. Geo. W. Fish, of the judicial chair of the District Court for the counties of Sumpter, Schley and Macon has been filled by the ap pointment of William B. Guerry, of Americus. Foster Blodgett has been discharg ed by a unanimous resolution of the Seago contending lessees of the State charge of secretly working to prevent the company from securing their rights under the lease. The corporators of the Griffin, Monticello and Madison Railroad held a meeting at the Kimball House in Atlanta, on the sth inst., and arranged for the meeting of the stockholders to come off at Indian Springs on the I4th inst. The honest hackmen of New York have organized themselves into an association for the purpose of regulat ing the hack charges for fares. We admire their spirit and would be glad to see in every class of working men the same concert of action. The p fri am pie. The campaign of 1872 will be one of perhnps the greatest moment and interest to the American people that they have ever experienced. It has already opened. The first booming shot comes from Gen. Geo. W. Mor gan. Gen. Morgan in a speech at St. Clairsville, Ohio, June 20th, bold ly set forth the unnecessary debt of the government and shows that the debt has been intentionally created for the express purpose of building up a moneyed oligarchy. Be dearly shows, equal rights and equal burdens being the fundamental idea of our government, that these oligarchs have so controled the legislation of Con gress that they have secured all the rights and privileges to themselves and thrown all the burdens and taxa tions of the government on the backs of the people. What right has Con gress to pass laws prohibiting States, counties and cities from taxing feder al bond's ? Tou own a farm worth twenty-five thousand dollars and I own twenty-five thousand dollars in bonds, we live in the eaase school dis trict. You have three chrfdrew and I three to send to school. Thry law requires you to pay a tax to repair and build a school-house while it says my bonds shall not be taxed one cent. This is not right and the people should think of it and take steps in the coming campaign to have such evils removed. The Corean War. Washington, June 28 —The following was received at the Navy Department this evening. Corea. June 23d. 1871. To the Secretory of the Kory ;—The C r- Cans not apologixing for their treacherous attack- on the 10th, we landed on Kang Noe and took and destroyed the lower fort and munitions; on the ll»h we took another fort and stormed and captured the s»rong ho’d. Five forts have h*en taken. The troops which defended them are reported as numbering eleven thousand. There was de*pera*e hand to hand fighting in the cita del. The ordinance was destroved. Four hundred and eighty-one pieces, and very many small arms and fi r »v fl *gs werefaken. We canted 243 dead Corea ns nr<*und the citadel. We had three (tilled. They were the gallant Lieutenant McKee, who was the first inside the citadel, killed with a bullet and spear ; Marine Dennis llannahan, and Landsman, Seth Allen. Oar nine wounded are all out of danger and doing well. (Signed) John Rodgers, Commodore U. S N. The Coreans of Kang Hoa Island paid a little dearer than they imag ined for their treacherous attack on a party, bearingtheUnited Statcsflag. who had visited them for the purpose of making a treaty for the security of seaman wrecked upon their coast. Corea is tributary to China and Ja pan. The population is estimated at about ten million, and principally agricultural or pastoral. A strange peculiarity with the Coreans, which renders them almost unknown to the rest of the world is, that no foreigner is permitted to enter their territory, and no subject of the King of Corea is permitted to leave his country ex cept ambassadors to China and Japan. The Newnan Defender says the Democrats of the Southern States oc cupy a position of great responsibility at present and if they acquit them selves faithfully honor awaits them as the conservators of the liberties of their countrymen in a period when political corruption an insatiate hung er for official spoils threaten the over throw of the Republic. In the Radical party there can he no rational confidence on the part of the lovers and advocates of free gov ernment ; and, we can discover very little practical difference between them, and the so-called Democrats who to win spoils accept as irrevoca ble the political wrongs which have been accomplished. Against these two powers the Southern Democracy are called upon shielding the true principles of our government. Neither the formidable array of puffed up radicalism nor the wiles of the seduced New Departure Democrats should cause the true Dem ocrats of the South to waver in devo tion to right or to compromise with wrong. Though all others forsake the principles upon which our fathers founded our free government let this noble hand stand immovable as the custodians of those principles until the dawn of reformation comes and innovation, with the unholy purpose of centralization perish at the jiat of an awakened people. We cannot hope for victory in 1872 i ... t ii „ •*- me erring branch of the Democracy. But what is victory worth when it is not the triumph of principle ? What will be lost by such a defeat except the “flesh pots. Better far, and far more hon© orable, to defer victory, than to pur chase it by the abandonment of the theories which are essential to the preservation of good government. Better remain a mere remnant of the party devoted to and holding truth in our shield than to revel in a triumph which is dishonored by treachery to ourselves and to future generations ot onr <l ocoondv. 11 to. We are advised by some Democrat ic Journals of the South to remain quiet and leave all to the Northern Democracy. Rather let us cry aloud and spare not those who invite us to participate in a movement that threat ens the overthrow of republicanism and the death of our liberties. Though powerless fo** present triumph we should wait in hope for the day when the scales will fall from the eyes of the people; when Radicalism shall appear before them in all the hideous ness of its crimes against the con stitution; when New Departure Dem ocrats will be regarded as a spoils seeking crew, willing to sell the noblest political heritage for office. This riaae will some. Let us then be found faithfwl waftchaien'oa the wall towers of the eoastitutieft—faithful advocates and defenders •# free gov ernment—the priceless gift of out fathers. The Pittsburgh Post republishes a letter from Queen Victory to Presi dent Grant, which commences as follows: “We herewith send for yoore Excellen cy's acceptance ten thousand cigars of rar est quality, and also a greyhound pup sired by the peerless ‘Master McGrath,' freight and churyc*paid. Accept these us sincere but f*-eble tributes of our esteem." How is this for presents? The State Medical Convention assembled in Macon on the sth inst., for the purpose of settling certain question growing out of the proceed ings of the last annual meeting of the Association at Americus. It is *aid that the Convention did nothing, and we judge that some members of it were not very fascinating to the Telegraph and Messenger as it comes at them in tne following : *• In the name of an indignant people, we protest against any lowering of the standard of surgical and medical education. Heaven knows the country is already a prev to charlatanism, and a glance at some of the disciples of who graced the Convention, would indicate they were far more familiar with the plowshare and pick and shovel, than verged in the healing art and the use of the sca’pel " Communicated ] Pin* fißnvK. July sth, 1871. Mr Editor ;—The quantity of rain that has fallen this season has been so favorable to the growth of grass, and we farmers hare been so busy trying todestory it, that I hare not been able to fu’fill my promise to report the condition of crops in this section, until now. Corn is generally good, though not so good as red -land corn. The wet season has been unfavorable to the cotton crop, especially upon our gray pine lands ; the grass has retarded its growth considerably. I visited your little city the other day ; and was glad to see that many improve ments have been made lately. It seems that you have some enterprising men among you, but there is still great room for en ergy and enterprise. A little capital judi ciously used might make your town one of the first and desirable locations in th's part of the State. It has great advan tages of situation, railroad communication, health. &c; all that is needed now is capital, and a few more energetic men like Mr. A. and others, to cover those vacant lots with fine buildings, and make it a large city. The surest means of bringing capital into your midst, is to keep up fine schools ; these, more than anything else, will increase your trade, add to your prosperity and awaken an unusual interest in your com munity. Build up yojir schools. and they will build up your towp : let them go down, and business of every kind becomes doll upon us to sustain its cause at any cost, it can be shown that it actually pays in dol lars and cents. The money spent by a com munity in sustaining fine schools, returns them, finally, four fold interest, bv bring ing capital from a distance, which is spent in their midst. Many persons, desirous of educating their chi’dren, will remove to such a place to get the benefit of its school. A community that has not a good school, not only loses all these advantages, but has to send their children from home to educate them ; thus building up the educational in terest of some other county. The money that is paid in this county for tuition—while it serves to keep up the schools and furnish the people with t»e fa cilities for education—is, also, spent here, and serves to keep alive every branch of industry that adds to the resources of a If your business men and leading cithers would take she pr.rper view <>t this matter even if they felt no interest, in education —they would spend their energies and heir capital in establishing first class schools simply as a profital le investment. I was present, the other day, at a meet ing of the Board of Education in your town. This system of public instruction, tho’ very imperfect at present, is evidently a steffin in the right direction ; and the people should give it ail she aid in their power. It seems that the Board had met under circumstances of peculiar difficulty, judging from the efforts which they made t«» - trate the dark cloud of n r -' crta ' n ly that hon*r over the field «»f their future operations Those gent’emen who act upon that Board are entitled to the thanks of the community which they hsve undertaken to serve, at so much inconvenience to themselves. We learn that some oft he School Districts have given the Board and Trustees all the assistance required. This is as it should be. Even if the law has some little defects, a skillful administration of it may more than atone for these imperfections. We are striving against our own interest when we retard the execution of this law. For it ra the law of the land, and will be executed whether we favor or oppose it. So let us take it into our own hands and manage it so as to receive some benefit from it. Knot. Ornci holders’ Prater —O grant that Grant may continue to grant the grant of Grant's fav-Ts to Grant's most obsequious gtantees. May Grant be re-elected to grant office to Grant’s servile slaves, that Gram's grantees may live bv Grant’s grants, and thus exemplify Grant's loyalty, that Grant’s grantees may sound Grant'sgranting prais es before Grant's enemies and by this means evrnee to a wicked and a perverse genera tion that Grant by his grants has endeared Grant to Grant's grantees if to none f Grant's grant less granites. Amen. —Fort Scott Democrat Cfcacrllor I/lpsrotnb to the Alumni—Al uuui Club*. Ve invite particular attention to the fol» living address to the Alumni of the Geor gi: Uoiversity, the manuscript of which c»te to hand last Friday night j Univik-itt or Georgia, Jun* 25.1871. J the Alumni of the University oj Georgia: Gentlemen— I b«g to call yrur attention tithe importance of forming local clubs of te Alumni of this Uoi*prei«y. The main object of this organization ia to tiite «'tir Aloinni as co-workers in behalf f* the interests of the University Vherever a lew of the residents of tie same ci f y or neighborhood, can combine (igother in tbe formation of a club, it is ttrnesfly desired that they fratern xe in an •rganic shape, holding meetings ar stated easons, interchanging views as to tbe best oethods ,*f promoting the welfare of the Jniversitv, and adopting the most effective measures to create, sustain and embody an earnest public sentiment in support of the University. Such an organization has a genuine feeling for its basis. It has a sphere to fill and a work to do ; for our AI umni owe it to themselves to cling together, and they :>we it to the University to ding to her. Elueated men lose many of the benefits of early culture by neglecting just such fellowship of intellect and heart as these clubs will supply. What is equally unfortunate their personal attachment to Ahna Mater loses much of its intensity, and most of its utility, simply for the reason that it has no means of organic action If, then these local clubs can be the centres of association and rymparby. both as it respects tbe relations of individual members and a common relation to the Universi y. they should certainly commend themselves to our thoughtful regard. It is believed, moreover, that tbpse local c uhg can be brought into an auxiliary re lation to the Alumni Association of the University, and thereby prove an efficient agency in carrying out its prospective plans. If the Aluo»ni Association expand in »he direction contemplated at its last ses sion August 1. 1870. it will find these clubs most serviceable adjuncts to irs power. It can accomplish through them what it can not accomplish without them. Not onlv will it have an orgaoix »ti<»n by means < f which it can operate, but the University it self* wifi have at every leading point in the State, a channel through which it eim reach the public mind. What your Alma Muter most needs, is to perpetuate a vital connex ion with her sons, so that she can eall them at any critical period to her side, and !e»»n upon them lor generous svmpnthy and manly support. The hour of graduation has too often been the hour of separation, •>f practical alienation, and of forgotten ob ligations, if the protest of her wounded heart con reach yon. this shall be her mts* f triune and her sorrow no longer. Nor is this all. What you most need as cultivated men, is to perpetuate your eouuexion with your Alma M iter. The best ad safest proof that a man can give of his education, is the active interest he takes in the well- being of the University that inspired him with high aims.protected him against evil by her vigilant power, and held him closely to her heart during the years when she worked for him, but when fie could not work for her. On each side, then, great benefits will accrue from the nr ganixaticn proposed. The return of your hearts to the sanctity of a neglected doty, will inspire you with the fervor of a deeper life, and renew that youth of the affections which too frequently grows prematurely old iust because the tyblig itums apd «n on atora» oblivion. On the other hand, your Alma Miter will enhance nerown sense of responsibility and do a far broader work for Georgia, if she will follow you as she ought to follow you to the homes you build, to the private and public spheres you fill, and to the solemn relationships which grow upon you with your growing y«»ars. The approaching session of the Alumni Association, Juy 31st, will be an oc -a-ion of much interest. If you cannot all attend, see to it that your local club is represented in the deliberations of the Association. I teg to remain, Very respectfully vnurs, Andrew A Lip-comb. A Funeral I)i>ci»uk»i —l’he readers of the Drawer have, within th« la.*t vear »>r two, been edified with the perusal of a sermon <»n “The Harp of a Thousand Strings/’ and the “Farewell Discourse of Brother Wat kins/’ The tone of those discourse' l might, in a general wav, he ealled pleasing. Not so, however, the following brief allusion from the pulpit to a young man of indiffer ent po* tion in the social circles of B—»—, New Hampshire, who came to an early de cease by a vigorous but absurdly unequal contest with a party of the 0 ard family. The preacher who officiated at the final solemnities improved the occasion by mak ing the following remarks: “I hev been requested not to say impor tuned. toe deliver a funeral discourse on this occassion, and I bev reluctantly con sented toe do so.

A Radical Judge —Recently the sappy-headed Magistrate who disperses justice, so-called, at Eufaula. and who it will he remembered imprisoned Mr B ack, the editor of the Ne*s. for refusing to be tray the confi lence of a contributor to his paper, was taken down in the following manner by a clergyman of that city. It seems the faithful man of God had preached a discourse, which reflected severe y upon frau-fulous office-h lders, and speculation generally. The irate Judge, stung to the quick by the allu-ions which had foe * made, publicly accosted Rev Mr on the street and insolently demanded if be had spoken in the manner above quoted. Re ceiving an affirmative reply, the brute then asked if he took refuge under his clerical robes. To this the undaunted Divine re sponded : “Sir when I leave my study my gown and surplice are laid aside, and as a man I am responsihie for all mv acts." The discomforted Judge then faintly asked if the strictures in ques'ion were specially intended f r him? “They were meant for any and aI? to whom they justly appbe *. sir, and if tbe cap fi's you it is not my fault —you must war it." Abashed by tne determined front of this excellent man, the petty tyrant subsided at once and v«m «ed. Chief Justice Chuu—His indorsement of the Position of the Ohio Democracy. Dayton.
