American Ship Building
Among other branches of American
Industry which liaa been filtered and re
suscitated by the Republican party Is the
building of ships, both of wood and of
iron. For a liuis the iron ship builders
ou the Clyde appeared to monopolize tho
construction of sailing vessels and of steam
ers, but of late their reputation has been
on the wane. Meanwhile their vessels
aud their steamers have not beeu successful
and the recent loss of the Atlantic cannot
add to diminishing. popularity of iron
vessels. On theotherhsnd.lt is asset ted
that for the first time since the commence
ment of our civil war American wooden
abips can be aoid in Loudon, or in Liver
pool, at their fiill value, and that the ship
yards oa the New England coast again
echo with the ringing of the broad-ux.
Let tho Republican party have due credit
for having brought this resuscitation
about.— Washington Chronicle.
False ! false ! false ! From beginning
to end. Your party has not only com
pletely aud absolutely destroyed American
■hip building, but has transferred all, or
nearly all, toumige to foreign bottoms.
You have not a mercantile steamship, or
sailing vessel scarcely ou the oceans of
the world to-day except those iu the ser
vice directly or indirectly of foreign com
panies. Of all the great lines now run
ning to New York from Europeau ports,
you have not one single representative
steamship. And in the sailing vessels you
can boast of nothing more than u few
coasting schooners. And even there you
would have none were it not for the law
that no foreign owned ship can curry
freight from one of oar forts to another of
law today and Hi it.
ou 'i - w 'U ,io
Manzanim-a, the capture of which by
the Cuban patriots is confirmed, is a sea
port town ou the of the
island, having a good harbor aud consid
erable trade in cofTce. sugar and fruit.
The steamers from Hantiago de Cuba
usually touch at Manzamlla, and the state
ment that with the place the patriots have
taken a large amount of money, war muni
tions and provisions is wholly credible.
Undoubtedly, as the Hpaniaids have been
permitted to supply themselves with arms
and powder iu the United States, while
the patriots have beeu denied the privilege,
many of the war munitions captured were
manufactured In tills country. Spain is
now further off than ever from suppress
ing the insurrection, after an enormous
outlay and loss of armies, while the Cap
tain General sends to Madrid for troops to
supress rebellion among even the Span
iards of Havana. The Cubans have u
brilliant prospect of success. Having
struggled this long, through such misfor
tunes, against such inhuman warfare, and
new w inning these signal victories, it i*
not at all likely that the Cubans will
abandon their struggle. They will win.
When they shall have achieved indepeud
ence, how grateful they will be to th<
United Stales for the magnanimity we
have shown to a brave people fighting lm
riddance of chattel slavery and the rob
beries of a decaying power beyond sea !
At Louie QuiOr,
If your government bus shown one sin
gle spark of sympathy, or one gracious
smile upon these struggling Cubans, we
have utterly failed to see it.
The only attention your Egyptiun
Spliynx. who now occupies your l'resideu
tin) chair liar ever paid to tho atfors of
Cuba is his regular arrival of Ilavuua ci
gars i Give him plenty of these aud they
fight on and fight ever, without illicillng
the slightest attention of your Chief Magis
Irate.
Rut like the balance of the people of the
United States, wo hope these Cubans may
whip the Spaniards. m
In our scrap of history yesterday ws
stated that the engineers of the State Road
when first contemplated adopted a line
from A Manta to Cliattannooga. It should
have read from Macon to Knoxville. Or
iu ether words they then - saw what we
do to-day that the true route from the in
terior of Georgia to tiie northwest was
over the pmposed line of the Macon and
Cincinnati Railroad.
Fir* Department Parade to he Pot
ofk —I’rizicb. —The annual parade of the
Columbus Fire Department was fixed last
week for the 22d. Tho officers think,
however, of postponing it until May 6th,
and will propose the matter to the Hoard
of Control, next week. This will be done
for the reason that Capt. Johnson, the
agent, lias written for a champion self-act
ing engine, and all, being desirous of see
ing it tested, deem it best to delay the pa
rade until it arrives. The engine consists
of a light truck, wiiich two men can
draw. It is provided with two large and
two small tiro extinguishers, one hundred
ami filly feet of hose, four extension lad
ders, aud a supply of axes, picks, lanterns
and buckets The cost of the large size is
fl5(IO If the city is pleased with it,
Capt. Johnson will sell the affair for a
much less sum.
It would add much to the interest of
the parade if the citizens would get up
prizes to be contended tor. Hy having
ruuidng trials between the hose squads,
all the companies could take part. It will
tend to create enthusiasm iu the Depart
ment and make t tie members feel t hat (tie
citizens take pride in their efficiency aud
discipline.— Col Hun.

Mayor’s Office, April 11th, 1873.
(Extract from the Minutes of Council. April
Bth, 1873 )
Report and resolution of Special Comittee:
The special committee to whom was referred
the preamble and resolution of a public meet
ing of the citizens of this city, recommending
the city authorities to grant aid to the Macon
and Cincinnati railroad, made the following
report:
The undersigned committee of Council, to
whom was referred the proceedings of a public
meeting held in this city on Thursday, the 13th
day of March last, at which ssid meeting, res
olutions were passed indorsing t ie Macon and
Cincinnati railroad and requea.ing the City
Council to subscribe 1200,000 in aid of the
same, respectfully 1 eg leave to report:
That upon examining the charter of the city,
and a special act of tfie Legislature, approved
August 24th, 1872, we find that the City Coun
cil is authorized to subscribe for stock to said
railroad, and to issue bonds in payment of the
same upon the following terms, to-wlt: “On a
vote of a majority of the Council, ratified by
a ballot of two-thirds of the legal voters of the
city, who shall vote at the election ordered for
this purpose.”
The proposition of the Macon and Cincinnati
railroad it- that tho city shall subscribe, and de
livery and payment of the bonds be made when
the said railroad company shall complete and
equip forty miles of the said railroad, north
ward, to some point at or near Monticello, in
the county of Jasper.
Your committee, therefore, in view of the
great importance of this line of road to our
city, and in view of the fact that a large major
ity of the citizens of Macon appear to favor
aid by the city, and in deference to the ex
&ressed wishes of a large and respectable num
erof citizens, we think it right and properto
give the people the opportunity to press upon
the question.
Be it therefote resolved, That this Council
do hereby agree to subscribe f 200,000 for stock
iu the road, upon the terms above stated, aad
payable only on completion of forty miles of
said road, as proposed by said company; pay
ment for said stock to be made in bond's of the
(city, to be issued in terms of the act of the
Legislature, approved August 24th, 1873, au
thorizing the said subscription and issue of said
bonds.
B#*it farther resolved. That His Honor the
Mayor, le hereby directed to order the
election i be held on the 23d day of this
month, (AVil) in the city of Maconj for the
purpose ofratifying or rejecting the proposed
subscriptiomtof $200,000, and the payment
thereof by the issue of City of Macon bonds
as the act of the Legislature, ap
proved as aforesaid.
On motiomthe reporUwae adopted.
In complMce witMfthe foregoing resolu
tions and terra of thejrtiove recited act of the
Legislature requiring the same, notice is here
by given that n election will be held at the
City Hall, on Wednesday 23d day of this mouth
