Telegraph and Messenger. MACON. SEPTEMBER 19 1871. News Items. Hodges, the military embezzler, confesses to have tafcan $450,000 Government funds. ScuiTEnsojtas are quoted in Wilmington, North Carolina, at twenty-five cents a peck. Charleston Freights.—The Charleston Cou rier boasts that their New York lines are doing an immense freighting business. Moxeoe Couxty.—A note from Mr. Sneed, dated yesterday, says “all the precints are in except Colaparchee. Simmons about 800. Tin- ley “nary one.” Pise County.—A dispatch from Mr. Swatt’s at Bamesville to CoL Simmons dated yesterday says, “Pike gives yon 750 majority, Tinley re ceiving only SC votes.” Pboyided Fob.—The Baltimore American is intensely Grant Radical and has good ground for it. The editor and his immediate connections divide among themselves §33,100 in the way of official salaries and emoluments. It i3 a fine thing to seo virtue rewarded. Loss or Population by the Civil Wab.—Ac cording to Superintendent Kennedy the popula tion of the United States, by the normal rate of increase should have been in 1870, 42,328,432, butitactually was only 38,555,983, showinga loss of 3,772,449 to bo ascribed to the civil war. The news from France is important. Thiers, in a special message, is represented as virtu ally appealing to the Deputies in behalf of a return to monarchical institutions. The Dep uties responded by laaghing at him. A bill has passed proroguing the Assembly from the 17th of September to the 4tb of December. Gbant in Illinois.—The Chicago Republican is a Radical paper, but very malicious in it3 op position to Grant. Says the Republican: If anybody wants to seo a little fun, let him introduce a resolution endorsing Gen. Grant for renomination in the Republican State Con vention. He had better first send for brother- in-law Casey and the “trupes.” B. Gbatz Bbown.—A terrible hullibaloo is going on for B. Gratz Brown for President. The New Orleans Times and Richmond Whig are for B. Gratz Brown. So is Frank Blair. So is ex-Secretary Gideon Welles—Gideon has written a letter for him. The fcot is B. G. Brown's initials are telling in his favor. Beat Grant Brown. What do you think of B. Gratz Brown ? Hurrah for B. Gratz Brown. Match him with a Smith and it would beat a popular ticket. Everybody would know the ticket. Brown & Smith. How it was Done.—A Knoxville correspond ent wants to know how many miles of that West ern Railroad were changed from broad to com mon gango in a single day, and how it was done. About 500 miles. We havo no time to hunt up the figures. Every other spike was previously drawn—the new line marked and holes bored. Then on Sunday morning in grey dawn, a gang of twelve to each mile being then and there pre viously posted, fell to work and finished the new alignment a little after eleven o'clock in the morning. That was the way of it, speaking from memory. The Safety of De. Liyingsone.—Sir Roder ick Murchison publishes the following letter from Dr. Kirk, at Zanzibar, dated July 19,1871: I can, I regret to say, give no farther accounts of Livingstone. What last I wrote about his viBit to that little known place west of Tangan yika, i3 confirmed, and tho Arabs from that qaarter seem to count him quite one of tho res idents of those places. There is certainly no ill-feeling on tho part of the Arabs to him. The little jealously they seem to have shown at first has passed off, and I sent a letter a few days ago by the first caravan of tho season to Ujiji. Do not despair. The Doctor is moving slowly, but safely; ho evidently feels his way, and is determined to leavo little donbts behind him this time. Another terrible mystery is perplexing the New York detectives, and promises to become of a3 absorbing public interest as the tragedy of the body in the trunk. On Tuesday morning, 9th inst., the body of a young, well-dressed and beautiful lady -was found on the Long Island beach, near Cold Spring. There were evidences of murder and perhaps of outrage proceeding it. At tho coroner’s inquest nothing definite was ascertained, except that one of the rings on the lady's finger was engraved with tho initials J. H. It wa3 surmised that the deceased had been thrown overboard from some ono of the yachts ernising tho day before in tho harbor. Circum stances begin to connect this tragedy with the fate of Miss Jennie Hicks, the most ft&hionable dressmaker of Troy, who unaoconntably disap peared from her home on Saturday, the 2d in stant. Further developments will be awaited with anxiety. Bibb County Election. Tho following figures are reported to us by Mr. Busbee, ono of tho inspectors: SIMMONS. TINLEY. Macon 1,698 475 Rutland 49 19 Hazzard 20 3 Warrior 165 0 1,932 497 Simmons’ majority in tho county 1,435. Rain and Clouds.—Rain and clouds all tho time. There has not been half a day’s cotton picking weather thi3week. Yesterday, it rained all day. Cotton, we aro informed, is to some extent sprouting in the field where it has been blown ont. Talk of three million bales! It is preposterous. The Galaxy, fob October, was received yes terday. This number contains Mr. Greeley’s artiole on the one term principle, and several other readable papers. Mb. John Roberts, the senior proprietor of the Nashville Banner, died at his residence near that city yesterday. An English printer, and the membor of a London family conspicuous for its achievements in mechanic arts, he went to Tennessee when a very yonng man, and cast his fortunes in tho capital of the State. He was connected with the Nashville press during forty years. No man stoodhigher for business, integrity and personal worth. His death will create very sincere and very oxtensive regret. Mr. Roberts ha3 sot token an active part in his business the last year or two, having made a protracted visit to England, and devoting much of his time, on his return, to agricultural pur suits. His life was long and prosperous, and he qnits the world leaving the example of well- directed energies and thorough probity, along with an ample fortune, to his children. [Courier Journal. J. Edgar Thompson of the Pennsylvania Central Railway is said to be one of the calmest and most peraerving of men, always preserving silence himself, and making others talk without asking questions. An English capitalist, having business with the railway magnate, was told by a wag that Thompson liked to do all the talking, and the result was that, in an interview of fif teen minutes, not twenty words were spoken. When the Briton came out the wag inquired his opinion of the railway financier. “He seems to be ah idiot," was the response. Thompson, questioned respecting the Englishman, express ed the opinion that he must be q Trappist. A correspondent of the Detroit Post has just been to Ober Ammergan to see the Passion play. The place was crowded with Americans and English. This correspondent while there roomed with Judas Iscariot, and “it was owing to his influence that Americans have this year been forbidden to go behind the scenes and talk with the actresses.” The mesquit bean crop of Western Texas, it is reported, Is very large this year, equaling the great crop of I860. At present every tree and bush is bending nnder the weight of the beans, upon which the horses and cattle are feeding with great relish. This mesquit beaD, is said, makes excellent winter food for stock, and many persons are collecting them for that purpose. The Late Special Election Is not without ft moral. The idea underlying the nomination of Mr. Tinley was to divide the white vote and secure a more numerous and in fluential white element to the Radical organiza tion in this region. The movement originated with the MnlattoRegency in Macon. JeffLong was the engineer and secured the nomination, and then did his best to rally the African legion to its support. He called a ratification assem blage in this city on Tuesday night, and -was /.hoirmnn of the meeting whioh was numerous ly attended, and he made a flaming speech in behalf of the nominee. Bat he failed misera bly. The opposition attacked him without mercy so soon a3 he had taken his seat. He writhed and groaned and called them to order in vain. They pinned him to his chair and put iiiTn through a course of sprouts which made hirrij for the nonce, several shades whiter with wrath and mortification. The next day, how ever, they did Jeff still less honor, by letting his candidate alone severely not only in Bibb coun ty, but oven still more in other parts of the District. Look at Monroe and Pike. The charge wa3 that Mr. Tinley had never been known as a Radical—and it was true; but we venture to say aDy white nominee would not have met with a much better fate unless at the expense of thorough social, a3 well as political, identification with tho negro Radicals. The negro politicians are very naturally tired out with being played in the interests of an insigni ficant white minority, and the whites who un dertake to manage them in that line hereafter, have got to go down considerably below their knees in Ethiopean demagoguery. Tho extraordinary unanimity with which, all over an extensive district of three large conn ties, in a few days’ notice, without publication or resolution to that effect, they all with ono con sent dropped Tinley into the mud, ought to be an awfnl warning to men who fancy they can pander and patch up compromises and bargains for their own or the public advantage with tho negroes. Some have said that the price of harmonious political alliance with the negroes is an equal social alliance. Bat even that is very donbtfnl. All history and experience show that the jeal ousy and antagonism of color pervades even the colored people, and half-breeds aro proscribed by the blacks. San Domingo and Jamaica il lustrate this proposition. Tho white man, or white party, then, who knuckles and compro mises with negro parties and politicians will be miserably disappointed at last The negroes will, to some extent, support white candidates. A considerable number of them voted for Simmons. But they are not go ing to support white candidates on an equality basis. Some of them will vote for whites from motives of respect for superior qualifications and position; but when white candidates come down to the African basis they prefer their own color. Tho idea of a grand political amalgam is as preposterons as that of a grand social amal gam. The price of both to tho whites'would be only the contempt of the negroes. There is bat ono coarse to pursue. Let the whites of Georgia stand shoulder to shoulder— maintain their supremacy and exercise it right eously for the benefit of all. Any other course is ruinous. Think of that time apprehended by some of our best men, when two equally divided white parties shall go into the arena for negro votes as a floating balance of party power. Years ago there were about ahundredorso white “float ers” in Bibb who, day3 before the election, were •penned by the rival parties and kept wallowing in whisky. Can any man contemplate any similar position for any considerable part of the negro TOter in Georgia without horror? To have all pub lic questions decided in that way would be horri ble. Bat what a misfortune to the negroes them selves,and to every industrialinterest of tbeState to have that population exposed to such corrupt ing and demoralizing conditions. We entreat the respectable whites of this State to stand to gether—not so much for mere party interest as In behalf of every great interest of society, in cluding that of the negroes themselves. Repnbllcaii Economy. Gen. Geo. W. Morgan, of Ohio, met Senator Sherman’s boasts about Republican economy and lessening taxation, with a terrible expose of these hollow pretences. He shows that daring the four years of the war, they raised §712,000,- 000 by taxation, and in the first year of peace thereafter §619,000,000, and during tho four years succeeding tho war they collected §1,174,- 000,000 more than daring tho four years of war. That since the war there has been drawn by taxation by the Government at Washington ont of tho labor and resources of the people, §2,- 700,000,000. Nearly doable tho whole amount of the entire expenditures of the Federal Gov ernment for tho period of eighty years, from the first inauguration of George Washington to the close of the late war. That ont of this vast amount only §800,000,000 of the debt have been paid, leaving §2,400,000,000 as general expen ditures. In a word, that since the war money exceeding the whole amount of the national debt has been wrung from the people in taxes, and all except §300,000,000 gone in current ex penses. Gem. Morgan says: “I will suggest t. measure—a standard by which you can convey to jour own minds some idea oi what the sum of §2,70u,ooo,000 means. Citizens, from, ilia time of the inauguration of George Washington down to the inauguration of Abraham Lincoln, a period of over eighty years, the entire expenditures ot Um Federal Government, including the cost of the tlu-aa years war with England, the two years war with Mexico, tho thirty years of Indian wars—less payments on the public debt—was less than §1,400,000,000. And yet we find that the men in power, in six years of uninterrupted peace— peace at home, and peace with the world—ex torted from the people in that brief space of time, §1,300,000,000 more than was expended during the entire time of our history from Washington down to Lincoln. “What has gone with this fearful sum ? What has gone with that fabnlons amount of money? We know where it came from—from the pockets of the people; from the toil of the people; from the industry of tho people. Where has it gone ? I have called and call again upon Sena tor Sherman to tell the people what has become of those §2,700,000,000. He don’t reply; he will not reply, because his answer, if truthful, would raiso a hurricane whioh would sweep him and his from power. **‘Why,’ says someone, ‘we have a great debt; ua require thi3 §2,700,000,000 to pay that debt.'- .Yes, my friends, but §2,700,000,- 000 is §300,000,000 more than the whole debt. The debt is less than §2,400,000,000, and in six years of peace Si.«rman and his allies have collected from you §2,700.000,000. How much of the debt did they pay ? Up to the first day of tho present month of August, tho entire re duction of the public debt amounta to only about §300,000,000. Now take that amount from twenty-seven hundred millions and you have twenty-four hundred millions left What has beocme of it ? Whoso pockets has it filled ? Whose splendid palaces has it built ? Who are the men that riot in luxury upon this fabulous amount of money taken from the people in the shape of taxation?” A Bean Town.—Beverly, Massachusetts, says a correspondent, is known as “Bean Town.” No virtuous citizen of that place thinks of passing Sunday morning without baked pork and beans for breakfast. Formerly they went to the dif ferent bakeries Saturday nights, each man with his bean pot. Each pot was cumbered with a check as received and tho number given to the owner, and orowds would gather around the bakery door. Sunday morning, each man call ing his numbtuind reoeiving his pot. Bat now they have a pdmtjr.in the town, and each house holder has had-tts bfean pot made to order, with his name or initials baked into the side, and the plan works beautifully. The bakers charge six cents for baking beans, and it is no mean source of revenue. THE GEORGIA PRESS. Gbofs in Lowndes County.—The Valdosta Tim an 0 f the 12th sayS that for four or five weeks past they have bad almost a continued storm. Many farmers will not make more than one-fourth of a crop. A gentleman told us yes terday, who always has a good crop, that the late storm has destroyed one-half that portion of his crop that former maladies had left. The Tidal Wave.—The Savannah Advertiser sounds the alarm about that great tidal wave, and thinks it would be just as well to be getting ready for it. But how get ready? The first point in order it seems to us, would be to ascer tain whether in fact Agassiz ever bazared suoh a prediction. We have never seen it, and only read of it in the New Orleans papers. The philosopher is not at home just now. He is en gaged, if we are not mistaken, in making some explorations on the Pacifio coast. Bat if he has made any such prediction somebody must be able to pnt his finger on it. Let ns see it, and then we can next consider what practical con sequences should result from it. The Morning News of same date says: It was rumored on the street yesterday that a special dispatch had been received from Prof. Agassiz, stating that the great tidal wave would be here a few days earlier than was at first sup posed, in consequence of which many of our people are going wild upon the subject of high places. We have heard of a great many who have been moving up stairs, while every one argues that it will be expedient to dwell upon the house tops for a few days. • Another preparation we see being made for the memorable event is the pinning and bracing of the Exohonge portico to keep it, as the Clerk of Council informs us, from washing away. Here is a grand speculation for somebody. If some enterprising genius like old man Noah would come into onr midst, he could make a good thing ont of this—-you bet. By the way, we understand that all the spare rooms of the Ex change havo been reserved for the use of His Honor, the Mayor, and the Board of Aldermen. John Cooper, the negro highwayman, who committed the murderous assault on the little white boy Dooner, has been arrested and im prisoned. The News says: We learn that a white man living in this city, whose name for the present we withhold from the public, so far forgot himself on last Sunday —forgot that he was a man—forfeited all claims he ever held to the name of gentleman—if he ever possessed any, which we very much doubt —by getting into an altercation with his wife, the woman whom he had sworn to love and protect, and ent her severely on the head with an ax, inflioting a painful, if not mortal wound. Columbus Cotton Receipts of Tuesday were fifteen bales against 123 the corresponding day last year. Total receipts up to Tuesday were 11S bales. Mrs. Louisa V. Mulford, wife of Mr. Dads Mnlford, and only daughter and eldest child of Mr. R. L. Mott, died in Coiambus on Friday. Railway Dot.—The Enquirer learns through President McDougaid that there is now a pros pect for a joint track between Columbus and Hamilton for the North and South and Columbus and Atlanta Air Line Railroads, as both corpor ations are in a fair way to come to equitable terms. Dawson Cab Wobes.—The Enquirer says; Mr. O. O. Nelson, of Dawson, proprietor of the car works at that place, informed us on Tuesday that he had the contract for building about one hundred freight cars for the Bainbridge, Cuth- bert and Columbus Railroad, a number of which have already been finished. The passenger cars for the read are being built at Wilmington. Twelve narrow gauge engines havo been ordered in New York and Philadelphia. Mr. Nelson also contemplates starting a foundry for the manu facture of car wheels as soon as the Montgom ery and Eufanla Railroad will open np to him the Alabama iron and coal mines. Such an es- tabliskment in bis section will doubtless pay. The Atlanta Snn says that A. L. Harris was arrested on Saturday last on affidavit of CoL G. W. Lee, charging him as a “common thief and swindler." Lee alleges that property sold by him to Harris was paid for in property of the Western and Atlantic Railroad. Damage to Mill Property.—'The Hawkins- ville Dispatch says Dunaway’s mills, in Dooly county, were washed away last week, and this large escape of water forcing itself upon Foun tain’s mills, washed away about twenty-five feet of tho dam between the two mills. The dam was cut on tho opposite side of the saw mill, and also about thirty-five feet on that side washed away. We may expect to hear of considerable destruction to water mill property throughout the country. Many thousand fish have certainly gone with the water from Fountain’s pond. Hon. Thomas Hardeman has consented to de liver the annual address to the Cartersville Fair Association. We dip the following from the Standard of the 14th: Eight more new cars are now on the stocks at the car factory. Success is now beyond a problem. The cotton crop of this section will not much exceed half of last year’s yield. A Heavy Contract.—We understand the oar factory have a contract for famishing the Nash ville and Chattanooga Railroad with one hun dred freight cars, and that they will soon bo able to turn ont six cars per week. This looks like business. The Gastein Conference—An Inter* view with Bismarck. New Yore, September 9.—The Gastein cor respondent of the London Telegraph gives the following account of-an interview with Bis marck: “Prince, I need not tell yon that all Europe has its eyes on Gastein, and is eager to know what tho people do there.” “People bathe there and take oare of their health.” "Et apres, yes, et apres tom etes tovjours camme caf “Well, I will tell you. The King is always, I observe, with M. de Bismarok. The King and myself have really come for the baths, but we axe only too glad to receive the Austrian officials, and to assure them of our beet consideration. With Austria we had no quarrel, even when she began her ill-advised war in 1866. We it* her off with the paltry ransom of 2,000,000. AH is forgotten and forgiven, and we have so many interests in common that we must be friends. As snch we receive and are received here. With the Austrians we always wish to he friends; with the French we never were and never will be friends.” “I wonder if you Germans know how utterly you have beaten the French, yet how bitterly they hate you, and how they believe that they can efficiently attack you very shortly ?” “Neither their people nor their papers will leave us in ignorance of these facts. Bnt if they prove, as they are trying to prove, that they are not enough beaten, we will do it at once. In fact, there is a question, even to-day, of our sending more troops into their territory. They are murdering onr men now in some of the provinces, and protect oorselves we can and wilL France,” proceeded tho prince, “Is al ways asking for lime for payment and other concessions from ns, and if we ask for any thing the answer i3: ‘No instructions.’ They have not a man, political, civil or military, and they know nothing. The other day we would have given way on tho question of tho ratifica tion of the frontier, but they blundered it, and the time is past” I then spoke of Russia. M. de Bismarck ut terly confides in the good faith of tho present emperor as “a man of good works, who has not yet completed them; notably, the railway sys tem—a man of peace, essentially of peace. Russia, too, is so vast a country that farther extension of it will weaken it. Yet the railways are the point. So Russia must either fall back on her centre, or extend her skirmishers. At any rate the she must do something. France would buy any alliance at any price. She is in the 50 per cent, category, and I hear that it is coming.” “In London the Russian grand duke spoke strongly of the future, which Europe must fear.” “I comprehend; but the heir to the throne is never the same man when he gets on the throne, and the grand dukes are eohoes without original sound.” • Here the prince had to go driving with his emperor. How pleasant a surprise it is, says the Ohicago Post, to see the miracle of novel motion in ob- jects that are usually inanimate! We have seen a rope walk, a note run, a watch spring, a horse fly and a Saratoga hop, and next summer we shall go over theRockeyes to see the Big Trees leave and the Pacifio slope. 1 LETTER FBOH VIRGINIA. The Tomb of Jefferson—Gordonsville—Cal- pepper—Cedar Mountain—Condition of Virginia—northern Settlers. Amhebst Court-house, September 1,1871. Editors Telegraph and Messenger; A few lines additional from this place may not prove uninteresting to your readers. I left here a day or two since on a visit to Culpepper county, found the Orange, Alexandria and Manassas Railroad one of the most delightful lines of travel In the whole land. The road is kept in thorough repair, the cars commodious and beautiful, and the conductors polite and atten live. The road is presided over by Hon. John S. Barbour, a worthy son of one of Virginia’s most gifted and c’Jstinguished statesmen. The scenery along this line is very attractive, es pecially in Albermarle county, where we pass the University of Virginia, the beautiful town of Charlottesville, and' Monticello, the home and grave of Jefferson. Many tourists visit this seat of the departed statesmen and carry away mementoes, such as walking canes, pieces of the tombstone, eto. The latter, whioh should have been spared the tonohof their sacrilegious hands, has been badly mutilated and possesses nothing like its original beauty. On this stone may still be seen the words, “Here lies Thomas Jefferson, Author of the Declaration of Inde pendence, and Founder of the University of Virginia.” At Gordonville I fonnd the same “intense ex istence” for which the place has been so long noted, consequent on the meeting of the trains from Washington, Riohmond, Lynchburg and Stanton. There was not, however, the same profusion of “chicken legs” with whioh the eyeB of the hungry traveller have so often been greeted. The vendors with their big waiters crowded the platform, so as to seriously inter fere with the convenience of the passengers, find the authorities issued an order that they should not he allowed to come on the platform. Many on this account have giyen np the business, but still enough may be secured with small effort to satisfy the wants of the inner man. There are two good hotols, also, where the wants of the traveling pnblio are supplied. About two hours after leaving Gordonville we reached Culpepper, which has well been styled a “Revolutionary county.” This was tho county that sent forth in the old Revolutionary war the “Culpepper Minute Men,” concerning whom John Randolph said in the United States Senate: “They were summoned in a minute, armed in a minute, marched in a minute, fought in a minute, and vanquished in a minute.” I met and conversed on this occasion with CoL D. F. Slaughter, a grand son of the veritable Captain Slaughter who led these brave minute men forth to battle and to victory. Leaving the cars at Mitchell’s Station I visi ted the famous Cedar Mountain battle field, where Stonewall Jaokson taught Pope what a convenient thing it was that his headquarters was in the saddle. Some of the relics of that hard fonght field may still be seen, such as brinsed trees and battered earthworks, while a few bones may ever and anon be seen “bleach ing” in the sun. Virginia seems to be ia about the same state of prosperity as when the writer visited it two years ago. The crops are looking well, particu larly the corn, bnt fencing is still scarce, owing to the destruction of timber during the war, and labor is as unreliable as it is in the South. The yankees have put the same notions into the freedmen’s heads as in other sections; for it was only yesterday that I witnessed in this vil lage the procession and celebration of the “Ris ing Sun Benevolent Society,” with the usual display of banners, red shirts, drums, eto. A good many Northern settlers have immi grated to this region. Soon after the war land agencies were established all along the O. Y. & M. R. R., generally called ‘-Piedmont Land Companies,” and as prices were low, the coun try pioturesque, and in many places fertile, those in quest of homes came down and purchased. Several northern families are living hereabouts, and are engaged in fruit growing, wine making and other such things. Some of these immi grants not realizing their expectations are in favor of selling ont and going back North. "While many of them are good people, the old Virginians will doubtless say “joy” in connec tion with the departure of the greater number. _ W. From Crawford County. Cbawtord county, Ga., September 8. Editors Telegraph and Messenger ; It has been some time since I noticed in your valuable journal any report, agricultural or otherwise, from this county; so I will write, if for nothing else, just to add my testimony, so far as human knowledge may judge of the’ future by present appearances and precedent instances, that this will surely prove one of the shortest cotton crops since the war. Ever since the planting of the crop disasters have attended its culture. Even before it was planted, the prospect for a good yield was materially diminished by excessive rains running the ground together, making it almost as hard as it was previous to its being bedded preparatory to planting. From a simi lar canse many of the planted seed rotted in the ground, and a very defective stand was the con sequence. Some farmers planted over to an advantage as late as the 10th of May. But why enumerate tho ills to which our sta ple has fallen heir the present year ? It would be the old story with whioh you aro quite fa miliar, of grass and weeds, rain and the dronth, rust and worms, and so on to the end of the chapter. It would seem that tho elements would have been content with the damage done to the growing crop, having reduced the pro duction during the making period at least a third; but on Wednesday, the 6th instant, they concentrated their pluvial energies, and sent on earth such a flood of water as is seldom seen to fall in one day. It rained twenty-four hoars incessantly, and a considerable part of the time very hard, doing immense injury to open cotton, of which there was “a pretty smart sprinkle.” All things being considered, I oannot believe that there will be gathered very much over half theeotton that was made lost year; and the only consoling hope we havo is, that as the crop is small, the price for it will be proportionately high. For an episode, I will tell you about a “jubi lee” which the “XVth Amendments” some time ago had in onr vicinity. Money was raised for a dinner, and to enjoy it they assembled at a plantation near the “Thronateeska” (as OoL W. G. MoA. would have it), where, after making speeches — not political or inoendi- ary, oh, no! bnt such as these: “How doth the little busy bee,” eto., and “Mary bad a little lamb,” eto., a tournament was pro posed. I suppose the affair was understood be forehand, for some Sir Knights were gaily, not to say.beautifully decorated with red crosses, stars, bows, eto. Flow horses and males were mounted, three rings adjusted at regular inter vals in a hundred yards, which distance an old fellow with a watch, dumb perhaps, said they had to make in five-seconds. Pound-cake and the approving smiles of Afrio maidens were to reward the most skillful, or lucky Knight. The contest; raged, varied only now and then by some Balaamic animal true to bi3 obstinate na ture* refusing to go in the right direction, and piling his rider upon the grass. At last viotory perched upon the banner of a certain Knight— black as night; and the prize was to be awarded, whenlo! in the excitement of the exhibition a disappointed rider, stealing away unperceived from the lists, had appropriated the cako to himself, and left parts unknown. It is unne cessary to add that maiden smiles were not enough to appease the wrath of that both for tunate and unfortunate darkey. Very respectfully, Coquetueb. In Greenville, Ala., a “professor” had labored hard with the youth of that people, and taught them to dote on grammer according to Murray’s system. Daring one of the lectures, the sen tence, “Mary milks the cow,” was given ont to be parsed. Each word had been parsed save one, winch fell to Bob L , a sixteen year old, near the foot of the class, who commenced thus: “Cow is a noun, feminine gender, singular number, third person, and stands for Mary.” “Stands for Mary!” said the excited professor- “How do you make that ont?" “Because,” answered the noble pupil, “if the cow didn’t stand for Mary, how eonld Mary milk her ?” Pig Ibon.—The total production of pig Iron in the United States in the year 1870 was 1,800,- 000 tons. In addition to whioh, 200,000 were imported, almost exclusively from England making the total «msumption in the country 2,000,000 tons. The production and consump tion of pig iron in the civilized world in 1867 is stated at 9,500,000 tons or 21,280,000,000 pounds. BY TELEGRAPH, Versailles, September 14.—In the Assembly to>day, a message from President Thiers was reoeived, the reading of which lasted half an hour. Thiers says the members have well earned a suspension of their arduous labors. He promises, in the meantime, to work inces santly for the reorganization of the country; and frankly asks the deputies to ascertain from their constituents at home whether the oountxy wishes for a reconstruction based on the glori ous traditions of a thousand years, or for aban donment of the ship of State to tormentslead- ing to an unknown future. In brief, whether the people want monarchy or a republio. The message was coolly received, and sotne passages greeted with laughter.

If yon are satisfied that you ought to raise more stock, the mind naturally turns to the snbject of pasturage, and particularly to grasses. If you can succeed with them, you wul have less use for grain, and more healthy nnimaTg, and at once save money in catting off the ex pense of feeding and by prolonging the lives of lorses and mules. You cannot sneoeed as well as they do in higher latitudes and on closer soiL The main body of onr lands do not hug the roots, close enough; it is mixed with sand; is white; be comes heated under our summer sun; radiates heat and parches ont the grass before it gets well set; yonr experiments have generally been on small patches and have usually been broken up by prematurely turning stock upon them. There is no use in trying to pasture large flecks on small patches. They could not do that in' Kentucky. If yon wish to make a fair experiment, and hope to be profited by a grass crop, you must devote large fields to it, and let it atand without a hoof upon it until it thoroughly occupies the land. I doubt not there may be found on most of your plantations tracts of close soil whereby, leaving a part of the forest growth to break the fores of the sun’s rays, and by thorough prepar ation and by sowing a heavy crop of small grain with the grass seed, and letting it fall down to shade it the first summer instead of cutting it off, you could soon have good grazing and mow ing. Hence, inasmuch as you have a vast re dundancy of land, the experiment i3 worth the cost of seed and the labor of preparing and planting. . While you labor under difficulties in compari son with other sections in some particulars, you have over them in other respects inestimable advantages if you would only improve them— one is the adaptation by nature of your seotion to the vine crops. Yonr soil and climate are fitted for them, and their production is not only easy but choap. Your potatoes and ground peas are as far superior to those of upper Georgia in yield and in quality, as their apples are to yours. The advantages they offer you in a cheap and abundant food for man and be n 't are superior to those of the blue grass and clover sections. One piney woods potato patch i3 worth three times its area of Kentucky grass in food for hogs and cattle, besides its support of our own species. Where is a spot of land here where this crop cannot be abundantly grown, and where a farmer, white or black, with a little in dustry may not provide his family and stock with a most delioious and healthfnl food for at least six months of the year. None of us have, perhaps, placed a proper estimate upon the value uf the pea and pea vine that grow at a nominal expense after the cereals are matured, or, plantedseparately, pre serves and enriches the failing lands, famish ing abundant and cheap food for man and beast. By repeated luxuriant crops of pea vines, whioh derive their support mainly from the air, you oan enrich your land and almost impoverish that of your neighbor who allows the fertility of his soil to pass off by exhalation and taken up by yonr vines to be turned under and rot with the soil. Yonr experience daring the war, when sugars and syrups were cut off, demonstrated to you the immense value of West India cane. But I fear you have not profited by thi3 experience, since yon can exchange cotton bales for barrels and hogsheads of these articles which have un dergone the refining proces of superior prepar ation and skill elsewhere. And cotton is strag gling under the burthen of yonr neglect to avail yourselves of thi3extraordinarysourceof wealth which lies at every man’s door. Tobacco, almost indigenous to yor* soil, is one of yonr expensive luxuries purchased from the farmers of other States. Ever and anon over this country may be seen about the back yards and gardens a wide-spreading scupper- nong vine. It produces its own shade, derives its support from the hard earth without culture, and maintains its crop without pruning. This orop is not only among the most luxuriant, but i3 next to the best wine making grape in Amer ica. Did it ever occur to you what an immenso source of wealth this is which requires no oper atives to till the crop—only to be planted once in perhaps twenty years—and only now and then its support renewed—that only occupies a few acres of laud which every farmer has to spare ? A crop that is once planted requires no horse power, no strong laborers to bo fed, and clothed and paid; bnt that can be harvested by those who are not able to peiform field work. Did yon ever" count upon not only the luxury, but the health-bearing properties of these native and pure beverages, if they can be generally in troduced, and take the place of the fiery distilla tions among a people who are determined to use stimulants? I have only alluded to a few of your natural advantages—many other readily suggest them selves. Can any man tell why an average acre of land here is not worth more than in Western New York or Southern Illinois ? It is an inoon- trovertable truth, that with the same labor and preparation, and fertilizers, it will producemore in value of our standard crops. And from it we can supply more of the marketable products of tho world. Our fathers have shown their skill by the number .of acres they could cut down and scour over and rain in a few years. They had too mnch land—underated its value, and never took time to develop its true value. And we are following in their example unprofit- ed by the light which experience sheds upon every step of out pathway. If every farmer would restrict his operations and enrich his fields a3 he doe3 his garden, it would only require a few years to make him prosperous, independent and happy. From Twiggs County. Flat Woods, Twiggs county, September 12. Editors Telegraph and Messenger: Our corn crops are made and almost matured; we shall make a fair orop of com—enough to supply our county. The hog crop is small, but enough to supply the whites. The colored popu’ation are raising some meat; their shoats generai'y look well, whether there is any com in their crib or not. Wo shall not make more than a half crop of cotton. The month of August is our cotton- making month, in which about two-thirds of the orop is usually made; the month in which the cotton fields look beautiful and inspire the fanner with renewed hopes, amounting almost to a certainty, that he will be rewarded for his constant toils during the year. What soene more, beautiful, more inspiring, than to see a cotton field, girdled with rich variegated colors of white and red—crowned, as it were, with a wreath of green, and studded with a substantial crop of groen bc”s maturing and almost ready to burst from their fullness of silky fibre ? No such scene was beheld in our portion of oountiy daring the month of A: ast last past. The stalks generally are uncommonly small, and' oven where the weed is of fair size there is bat little more than the bottom crop. Aa eight weeks’ drought in July and August, succeeded by rains first of September, has cut off nearly all tho fruit promised daring these months. Our county will not make more than half a crop and would soon all be opened if the weather was fair. C. A Very Flush Georgia Lawyer—He Wants to Swap a Fee for a House at a Ileauy Discount—The “Great Sfonoply’s” Southward Strides. We find the following in the Savannah Ad vertiser, of Friday. Now who is the Georgia lawyer ? Find that ont, Mr. Advertiser, and re lieve onr tormented public’s keen-edged carios ity: Washington, September 14—A gentleman named Wigfall, formerly of Virginia, bnt who is now a resident of Brooklyn, owns a handsome residence in Clinton avenne, in that city, valued at seventy-five thousand dollars cash. He says that within the past ten days a prominent lawyer of Georgia proposed to him to buy this property, offering in payment a certified claim against a certain railroad in Georgia for legal fees amounting to an hundred thousand dollars, stating that all he had to do was to present the claim and get tho money. Wigfall refused to give the name of the lawyer, as he had been re quested to treat the matter confidentially. It is suspected that this claim is against the State Road and certified to by the commissioners re cently appointed by Bullock to settle the claims against that road. The Pennsylvania Central has succeeded in getting a controlling interest in the Wilmington and Manchester, North Carolina Central, Char lotte, Colombia and Augusta, and by recent purchase of stock the Air Line Road also, from Charlotte to Atlanta, and are now negotiating with King far the control of the West Point Road.

A Monster Bird in California. —Last Tues day evening about seven o’clock, says the Win- nemucca (Cat) Register of August 9, the peo ple in the lower town were startled by the sud den appearance of a hugo monster we are at a lost to know whother to call fowl or beast, not withstanding it had wings and could fly. It was certainly the biggest creatnre ever seen in this country with feathers. If a bird, it belongs to a giant species unknown to American orni thology. Onr attention wa3 first attracted by hearing some one sing ont, “Holy Mother, see that cow with wings.” "We stepped to the door just in time to see the monster alight with something of a crash on the roof of Mrs. Collier’s dwelling house, where it remain ed for several minutes taking a quiet survey of the land and the astonished multitude who stood gazing at that unexpected visitor. It coaid not have weighed less than seventy or one hun dred lbs., with a pair of ponderous wings, whioh, when stretched out to the breezo, *mu3t have been folly twelve feet from tip to tip. Its color was that of a raven, with the exception that the tip3 of its wings and tail were white. An “old salt,” who happened to get sight of the bird, thinks he most be a renegade member-of the condor family. He says he haB frequently met with Buoh “critters” on the coast of South America. A lady in Syracuse, who visited Oakland Cemetery on Thursday afternoon to place flowers upon her son’s grave, was assaulted by a well-dressed villain and robbed of her watch and chain, pin, locket and other jewelry. The outrage was done so quickly and so violontly that she had no time to alarm some workmen near by before the wretoh bad gone.

Yours truly, O. A. DENM3, eept0-eod2w 162 South Charles Street Cause and Cure of Consumption. The primary cause of Consumptien Is derangemer. of the digestive organs. This derangement produce deficient nutrition and assimilation. By assimilate I mean that process by which the nutriment of fit food is converted into blood, and thence into the sol ids of the body. Persons with digestion tbu: ia-1 paired, having the slightest predisposition to pulo nary disease, or if the7 take cold, will be very liable to have Consumption of the Lungs in some of it 1 forms; and I hold that it will be impossible to csrs any case of Consumption without first restoring a god digestion and healthy assimilation. The very £:■: thing to bo done is to cleaoso th3 stemarh and bowel* from all diseased mucu3 and slime, which is c’oggici these organs so that they cannot perform their m::- tions, and then rouse up and restore tho liver toi heal hy action. For this purpose the surest and be*t remedy is Echenck’s Mandrake Fills. These f9k clean the stomach and bowel3 of all tho dead and mor bid slime that is causing disease and decay ia the whole system. They will cleanout thelivcr of elUis- cised bile that has accumulated there, and rouse h up to a new and healthy sc tion, by which nitarfl and healthy bile is secreted. Tho stomach, bowels and liver aro thus cleansed6j tho use of Echenck’s Mandrake Pills: but there re- mairs in the stomach an excess of acid, the organ iJ torpid and the appetite poor. In the bowels tho 110- teals «c weak, and requiring strength and support. . It i3 in a condition like thi3 that Echenck’s Seaweed I Tonic proves to be She most valusblo remedy ever E discovered. It is alkaline, and its use will neutraiin all excess of acid, making the stomach sweet and tresh; it will give permanent tone tolthis imports:! organ, and create a good, hearty appetite, and pre pare the system for the first process of a good diges tion, and ultimately make good, healthy, living blood. After this preparatory treatment, what remains tj cure most cases of Consumption is the free and perse vering use of Echenck’s Pulmonic Eyrup. The Pol- monic Syrup nourishes the system, purifies the blood and is readily absorbed into tho circulation, »ri thopco distributed to tho diseased lungs. Tfcereii ►ns all mftrbid matters, whether in the form of se ises or tubercles, and then assists naluro to expel all tho diseased matter iathe form office expcctori- tion. when once it ripens. It 13 then, by the great healing and pnrifyirg properties of Echenck’s ryb monic Eyrup. that all ulcers and cavities are aealci up sound, and m7 patientis cured. ’j ho essential thing to be done in curing Consump tion is to get up a good appetite and a good digestion, so that the body wiil grow in flesh and getstrong. U a person has diseased lungs—a cavity or absces3in«® —the cavity cannot heal, the matter oannot ripen, so long as the system 13 below par. What is ne:ci?ary to cure is a new order of things—a good appetite, a g«l nutrition, the body to grow in flesh and get fat: tae- Nature is helped, the cavities will heal, the matte; will ripen and be thrown off in large quantities ap the person regain health and strength- This is as true a d only plan - to cure Consumption, andui person is very bad, if the lungs are not entire ya«- stray ed, or even if one lung is entirely gone, if thtrs is enough vitality left in the other to heal np. titre is hope. I have seen many persons cared with only on' sound luag, live and enjoy life to a good old ase.- 9 his is what Echenck’s Medicines will do to cine Consumption.
