MACON, OCTOBER 31 |S 71.
A i£eizu ol Terror In Sonfh Carolina
iVJiii* Grant Meant by ‘‘Lfit III
nave I’eace.”
■\Vbat Grant meant by his hypocritical invo
cation ho is terribly illustrating in South Caro
lina. The proclamation of bayonet and hand
cuff law for cortain districts of that unhappy
province has resulted just as was to bo expected.
It has created a reign of terror, and anarchy is
clutching at the peaceful homes and innocent
people of that devoted section. Hundreds of
citizens who, with the fate of their brethren in
North Carolina staring them in the face, know
that noftDemocrat will be safe from tho perju
ries of tho lying negroes and infamous whites
who are dogging their footsteps, are fleeing
from homo and leaving wives, children and
property at the mercy of tho white and black
Commune who, inspired by Akerman and backed
by Federal bayonets, have overrun upper Caro
lina. In York district, forty-four of the best
citizens of the county have been summarily ar
rested and thrust into a loathsome jail already
crowded with negro prisoners, shut up therein
by sentence of tho State courts. Of course the
latter will soon be released, and reernited for
tho grand raid against tho peace and property
of tho respectable portion of the community.
All over that whole region, according to Colum
bia telegrams to tho Herald, dated the 21st, and
published in the Sunday’s edition of that paper,
tho most respected residents are abandoning
their homes to tho tendor mercies of the negroes
and tho military, tho former of whom are com
mitting many depredations. Tho samo dis
patches also say it was reported at Columbia
♦Vinf a fight took place one day last week on
Broad river, in Chester district, between a body
of citizens who had become exasperated beyond
endurance by Federal brutality and some Fed
eral soldiers, in which the latter were worsted
and compelled to call for reinforcements.
And this is what Grant means by “let us havo
peace.” This is how he interprets the result of
the Ohio and Pennsylvania elections. This is
what ho has lusted after for many months, only
waiting tho verdict of the people of those two
States on other and foreign issues to misinter
pret and distort it to suit his bloody purpose,
and minister to his selfish greed and vulgar am
bition. To secure four years more of present
taking and pocket-filling, he deliberately de
clares anarchy and organizes pandemonium in
a scope of country larger and more populous
than gome of the rotten borough States that cry
bravo! to all his outrages upon right ana viola
tions of the constitution. American freemenhave
been forced,during the last ten shameful years,to
look upon many loathsome sights but never upon
one moro scandalous than this. It is the apoth
eosis of tho monster Radicalism that has ruled
and robbed tho people of these once united
States for somany bitter, black years.
The Paris Commune maintained itself in
power by wholesale arrests and murders, by the
torch of the incendiary and the oil can of the
petrouleuse, by robbing tho people to fill its own
pockets. The Washington Commune retains
its hold on power by a gigantic and organized
system of fraud and corruption, in its adminis
tration of governmental affairs; by thieves in
office and bayonets at the polls overawing
peacefal citizens; by frauds upon the ballot
box and defilement and insult to the law and
the Constitution; by trampling upon State and
individual rights, and at last by setting up a
reign of terror at a time of profound peace in
a section of country whose sole offence is its
politics.
The wretches of tho Paris Commune have
the excuse for their deviltries that there was war
—actual, bloody war—and that they fought with
ropes around their necks. The Washington Com
mune has neither of these excuses. There has
not been an armed man to rise up and dispute
its authority in more than six years, and for
nearly double that time it has had full posses
sion of every power of the Government. Let
the world judge and history record which of
these two despotisms was least guilty. The one
died like a wild beast at bay in tho midst of the
ruin it had wrought. If Heaven’s justice and
vengeance do not sleep, the punishment of the
other though far less fearful, will be none the
less sure and thorough.
“Where, Whebe is Omaha?”—Tho Sioux city
(Iowa) Times gets off the following good one
on Omaha:
“President Grant arrived hero yesterday at
three o’clock, and started for the Ogden House
to get a square meal.
He was waited upon by Mayor Caldwell, ex-
Mayor Millard, General Augur, Senator Hitch
cock and Hon. John Taffe, M. O., who in a
very humble and suppliant address, written by
the ministers and school of the. West Side, in
council assembled, begged His Excellency to
favor Omaha by a visit, if only for five min
utes.
Grant, (taking a cigar stump from his lips)
“Omaha, Omaha, where the devil is Omaha ?”
Delegation—“it’s only across the river, your
Imperial Majesty.”
Grant, (puff puff)—“Damn it! I thought
Omaha was somwhere up in the Indian Re
serve, among the Blackbird Hills. I have no
time to switch off and see side issues.”
It is understood that there are no town lots
to give way in Omaha, and the whiskey there is
miserable stuff.
GEORGIA STATE FAIR.
What Was Destroyed at Chicago.—The
Chicago Tribune, of a late date, explains its
not publishing a map of the burnt district of
that city by the statement that no map can im
part the faintest conception of- the magnitude
of tho disaster which has overtaken the city.
On tho consumed portion was concentrated the
great bulk of the wealth of the city. It was
also the most densely populated part. Tho un
consumed part consists chiefly of private resi
dences, multitudes of them cheap wooden struc
tures. A map of tho city plat exhibits a vast
area untouched by fire; but it does not convey
the information that not Ies3 than eighteen
square miles of this space i3 open prairie, on
which scarcely a habitation has yet been
erected. It wa3 annexed from the adjoining
townships to accommodate the future growth of
the city and for park purposes. The Tribune
think it would bo safe to estimate that two-
thirds of the capital invested in buildings in the
entire city perished on that dreadful Monday.
FOTTBTH DAT.
I see you mixed up matters in my report of
yesterday. By an effort of uncommon stiesgtb
and violence, you pitched Floral Hall bodily into
the middle of Machinery Hall, greatly to the
jeopardy of tho flowers, silks, laces and bijou
terie of tho former—to say nothing about the
peril to thousands of innocent ladie3 and their
costly habiliments. How they ever kept their
trains apd skirts clear of circular saws and
gudgeon grease is a marvel. Pray get them
out of that fix as soon as yon can.
The morning is warm and foggy, but I hopo
it will brighten during tho day as it did'yester-
day. There is a fair promise of a large attend
ance. A lively and inquiring crowd are about
the machinery to-day, and there is to be a test
of cotton gins. There are several on the grounds.
The old Daniel Pratt, represented by Johnson
& Dunlap, are unquestionably a good and well
made gin, particularly exellent in its anti-friction
bearings.
O. W. Massey, of Bibb county, represents
himself in one of his latest styles of Excelsior
gins, with a novel arrangement of the breast
ribs which, in his opinion, leaves nothing more
to be desired'or attained. It is certainly a splen
did gin.
The American needle gin is also here, and
this gin pidls off the cotton as would be done
by the fingers. The seed are as clean as those
left by the saw gin.
The Winship Gin, made in Atlanta, looks as
a very superior saw gin.
The Carver Gin and Linter, from Bridge-
water, Mass., represented by Mr. Robert Schley
of Augusta, Georgia. Mr. Schley claims that
this gin will deliver from threo to six pounds
more to every 100 pounds of seed cotton than
any other gin in existence. Tho seed fall from
this gin clear of all lint, and many of them en
tirely smooth. Mr. Schley represents the States
of South Carolina, Georgia, Alabama and Flor
ida.
No. lj Elastic Roller Gin, patented by E. Os
borne, Boston—an ingenious combination of the
McCarthy, Roller and Tooth Gin, which I think
will ultimately develop into the gin of the period.
It does not cut the staple at all.
No. 2, Elastic Roller Gin, for long staple,
with a somewhat different adjustment of tho
steel plates.
The Sawyer & Moore gin made in Macon, with
an adjustable expansion roller-box—in order to
adapt it to all conditions of the fibr6 and staple.
The gin is also provided with oscillating or self
balancing boxes which will never heat. The
brush is also provided with metalio wings which
by a current of air prevent the lint from set
tling about the gudgeon.
S. B. Hall’s improved self-feeding gin, man
ufactured by Hall, Washbume & Co., factory at
Mystic, Connecticut-i-represented by W. "W.
Parker, Macon. The grand peculiarity of this
is its self-feeding aparatus. It is provided with
a hopper at the top, into which the cotton is
tumbled by the basketful. At the bottom of
this hopper, a system of rollers distributes the
cotton with mathematical accuracy—better than
could possibly be done by the hand, and saves
the labor of one hand. Ia addition to this the
contrivance operates to separate extraneous sub
stances, so that even if matohes get into the
hopper they do not reach the saws. These are
all the gins.
Sawyer & Moore enter also a mechanical Gin
Saw Filer—a simple contrivance which, by
turning a crank, will sharpen a saw per minute.
This machine is self-adjusting, and by an Inge
nious device, the movement of the files is half
yotary, just as they would be in the human
hand. The'completion of every circuit is also
announced by the machine.
James W. Smith’s Cotton Seed Duller, manu
factured in Columbus, hulls and grinds the
seed very expeditiously—turning it into a nu
tritious meal for stock. The yield of meal to
seed is about forty per cent. The cost of the
machine, $125.
Shaw’s Cotton Seed Haller, made by the Dia
mond Mill Company, Cincinnati, represented
by H. B. Scott This mill hulls the seed so as
to leave the kernel perfect and adapted either
to stock meal or for oil, or crush and grind it
at tho same operation. A nice machine—price,
$125.
The same company also exhibit three plan.a-
tion grist mills, all of-iron—the grinding plates
being of chilled iron and self-sharpeinDg. These
mills aro valued at $25 to $75.
Philips’ Spiral Com Husker,Columbia county,
New York—worth $100 and has an almost il
limitable capacity—will shuck corn just as fast
as you can tumble it in by the basket.
Iron Water Wheel by Pool & Hunt, Baltimore.
Schofield shows in the Hall a magnificent
specimon of their largest cotton press—together
with one of the screw :, and a great iron shaving
made in producing it.
Steam pump entered by Knowles & Sibly,
New York.
Garhart & Curd, Macon, exhibit a large col
lection of agricultural implements: Seven vari
eties of hay and straw cutters, fans and com
shellers in geat variety, harrows of all kinds,
plows and plow castings, oircnlar saws, garden
and farm implements, Smith’s patent well fix
ture, wooden horse collar, ox yokes and me
chanics’ tools.
W. W. Parker, of Macon, has a large display
of farming implements: Harrows—including
a pulverizing harrow to cut up the clods by
means of rotary knife wheels—more than twenty
varieties of plows, cultivators of all sorte, plan
tation forges, boiler for steaming cattle food,
bee hives, grain sowers, hoe cultivators.
Peter E. Smith, of Sootiand Lake, N. C-, ex
hibits a sulkey plow.
W. W. Parker also exhibits iron pumps, cane
mill, cider press, cotton seed huller, cotton
planters, etc.
J. Ennis, of Columbus, Ga., shows a large
stock of carriage material, etc., made of South
ern limber and by Southern labor and machin
ery. This stook includes wheels, hubs, spokes,
felloes and axe helves, as handsome and good
as can be found anywhere. Represented by
Carhart & Curd.
JohnR. Davis, Covington, Ga., shows tho
model of a self-supporlihg gate—an ingenious
affair.
W. G. Hoge exhibits samples of bricks—
pressed and otherwise, and also a well brick
which ought to be used on curbing.
A. T. Holt, Monroe county, Ga., drives a
chum by a dog power, much to the amusement
of beholders.
Foreign Notes.
A Clean Sweep.—At a meeting, San day, of
the congregation of tho Fourth Presbyterian
Church, of Chicago, it was ascertained on closo
investigation, that eight hundred worshippers
in that chnrch were bnmed out of their dwel
lings, and are homeless to-day. Their honse of
worship and their mission school wore likewise
destroyed. In fact, the home of not a single
worshipper escaped destruction. This was one
of the moat flourishing Presbyterian churches
in the city.
Harmonized by Fibe.—Both the political par
ties of Chicago have harmonized on a city and
oounty ticket. It has been arranged that the
Radicals shall have the candidate for Mayor,
City Collector, Polioe Commissioner, twelve ont
of the twenty Aldermen, nine ont of the fifteen
Conhty Commissioners, Judge of the Supreme
Court, and some other minor offices, whilt the
Democrats were to have the City Treasurer,
City Attorney, Jndge of the Circuit Court, eight
Aldermen and six Commissioners and some
small offices.
The Walter Wood Mowing and Reaping Ma
chine Company exhibit several of their ma-
chines. "
Newspapzb Jubilee.—Very few papers, re
ligious or secular, now published, have been
in existence more than a quarter of a cen
tury ; but the New York Observer announces
that it will enter upon its fiftieth year in the
beginning of 1872. It was established as a re
ligious paper; giving, also, the most important
secular news; and it has been one at the ableBt,
and at the same time, one of the moat successful
journals in the country.
The publishers announce for the coming year,
as a free gift to each of their subscribers, a New
Year-Book; containing a vaat amount of infor
mation in regard to ohurch and State, and all
important business affairs, a real encyclopedia,
such as any intelligent person wishes to have
always at hand. Specimen copies of the paper
and prospectus of the year-book, sent free to
all who will apply. New subscribers will receive
the paper free until January 1st
PREPARED FOB THR TELEGRAPH AND MESSENGER*
The socond German Reichstag was opened by
the Emperor in person. After having dwelt on
tho favorable and gratifying condition of United
Germany, he pointed at the consideration of
the budget for the empire as the chief task de
volving upon the Assembly. A reorganization
of tho coinage being desirable, ho said that ;he
Federal Council was engaged in devising meas
ures for the establishment of a gold coin basis,
to be adopted as a uniform system of German
coinage. Then tho Emperor proceeded and
spoke of tho necessity of seeming a line of di
rect communication through Switzerland to
Italy, by means of the St. Gothard Railroad,
and after having allnded to tho satisfactory
foreign relations of the empire, laid great stress
upon stating that especially the correspondence
with Austria was of a cordial nature, the inter
course with that country being no longer shad
owed by reminiscences of pastconfliots.
Republican principles are_ making unprece
dented progress in Great Britain.
An address is rued by English representative
workmen demands separation of church and
state in England. Meetings will be held through
out tho country to support the movement.
It i3 also reported that Bradlaw, the Radical
leader, after having stated before a large meet
ing that the Queen was insane, demanded a re
gency to be intrusted to the judges of law and
equity, until a republio could be established.
The French Government, still apprehending
plots for tho restoration of the Empire, has is
sued strict orders that a careful watch be kept
over all suspicious or suspected persons landing
in a French harbor. Five papers supporting
the cause of Napoleon are appearing again in
Paris, while he may also count upon numerous
sympathizers in the army. But, for tho pres
ent, there is no prospect either for tho ex-
Emperoror his son to return to France. The
troubles reported from Corsica, the home of
the Bonapartes, are of no importance. Tho
Paris press appeals to Thiers to raise the state
of seige of the the capital, and to set the im
prisoned workmen against whom thero is no
criminal charge, at liberty. The Republican
papers are advocating these measures as warm
ly as the organs of the Legitimistic aud Clerical
parties are opposing them. The Government
in reply, made five promises, but, so far, has
been too timid to act. The final treaty of peace
with Germany has been signed. The greatest
hostility against anything German continues in
most parts of France. In the late Cote d’Or and
the Daubs department the German military
authorities have token steps to disarm the whole
population, in consequence of repeated attempts
to assassinate German officers or soldiers, and
General von Groeben had the following order
dosted on the walls of Dijon:
“Considering that yesterday two German sur
geons, while taking a ride, were severely
wounded in a cowardly manner by shot fired
from a gnn, and in accordance with the law of
August, 1840, referring to the state of seige,
I order, in the interest of the peaceful inhabi
tants, 1st That weapons of all kinds be deliv
ered up at the prefecture by noon of Tuesday,
the 10th instant. 2d. That the houses he
searched immediately after that date. 3d. That,
should weapons be found, tho owner be brought
before a court martial and punished with im
prisonment in a German fortress. Should wea
pons be found, the owner of which it is impos
sible to discover, soldiers will be quartered on
the honse where they were seized.” In Bisan-
con similar measures have been taken. m
The Echo dn Parlement (Brussels) remarks
that Berlin is daily profiting of the results of
the war and the decline of French influence in
certain branches of industry. Considerable or
ders for -millinery, tapestry and leathor goods
have arrived from Constantinople, Odessa, and
even from Madrid. Unfortunately, workers of
both sexes are scarce.
The Etoile Beige announces a voluminous
correspondence between the ex-Etnperor Napo
leon and a Belgian journalist, said to have been
discovered in the Tdileries. In this correspon
dence, it appears, a plan is developed for plac
ing Napoleon on the throne of Belgium. The
Etoile demands that these documents, which
are now in Brussels, shall be published.
In a leading article on the internal affairs of
Austria, the London Times gives utterance to
the apprehension that a reform of the empire
on the Oasis of Czech preponderance would
probably be followed by a lamentable crisis.
Alluding to a striking passage in Ditrreli’s Lo-
thair, where one of the prelates introduced in
the plot, pities Austria that, after having been
Catholio and German she was neither to-day.
The Times thinks that these words hold good
still; but, though Austria would never again bo
German she might become Catholio once more.
This was one of the pending questions to be
settled, and tho recent demonstrations made in
favor of the Halesburgers in Mayence, showed
conclusively that Rome still hofed in Austria,
which, at present, was not so much a nation as
a group of quarrelling nationalities and reli
gions. One of these nationalities had already
carried its partionlar claims, while others were
preparing to bring them also forward, and yet,
ont of this political chaos a great European
empire was expected to rise.
The Austrian Germans continue protesting
against the concessions made to the Czechs.
Count Buest has issued a circular respecting the
conferences at GaBteiu and Salzburg which, he
says, were of a peacefal character. In a com
munication addressed to the Austrian Ambassa
dor in Paris, he counsels the French government
not to harbar any thoughts of revenge against
Germany.
Hand in hand with the political aspirations of
the Czechs goes the revival of their literature.
The Bohemian society of national literature
called “Matioe”has just finished the translation
of Shakespeare into the Czech language, one of
the best translations of the poet in Enrope. A
translation of the Greek tragedians and latin
comic poets will soon follow, while Durdik, who
is favorably known by his studies on Byron, has
just published a Czech translation of Cain.
Tho Russian Holy Synod has sent Ozierow,
one of the most learned professors of tb6 ortho
dox clerical academy, as an official deputy to
the old Catholic Congress Bitting in Mnnicb.
He was charged to inform himself about the
principles and aims of the old Catholio move
ment, for the purpose of preparing the way for
an ecclesiastical union, should they correspond
to the spirit of tho first Christian Church.
Since Sagasta has openly joined Serrano, the
Progressists and Republicans are approaching
each other in Spain; and, probably, they will
form a coalition before long. The Republican
party is moving again. At a great meeting,
Ozense presiding, resolutions were adopted de
claring that the party would offer undying oppo
sition to every form of government for Spain
which was net purely Republican. Neverthe
less, in waging such war upon non-republican
principles, they wonld not violate the laws of
the land. After several speakers had pronounce d
themselves against the present Government, the
most violent proclaimed their perfect sympathy
with Republicans every where, and with the In
ternational Society, declaring that tho faith of
tho Republicans in Spain was identified with the
doctrines of liberty and eqnal rights now rapldiy
spreading through all the countries of Europe.
The political party headed by Sagasta has
issued a manifesto, which insists on the main
tenance of the integrity of Spanish soil, refers
to the final suppression of the inBurreotion in
Cuba, and denounces the “Internationals” as a
dangerous and unpatriotio organization.
In reply the adherents of Zorilla have pub
lished a counter declaration, advocating the
maintenance of order and strict enforcement of
law, tiie consolidation of the power of tho na
tion and the support of the Savoy dynasty.
This manifesto is signed by 141 leading Pro
gressists. . -
A San Fbakcisco journal says: “As a rule it
is not a good plan to visit the honse of a recent
ly married lady to collect money loaned her
while you were courting her yourself. The hus
band is likely to become unduly curious in the
matter, and may even take the ground that he
is in some way ooncerned in it. Should he
blonder into that view of it yon may find it ex -
tremely difficult to Bet him right. We have rea
son to believe that we are supported in this
opinion by Mr. Edward Kelly, of this city, but
as Mr, Kelly is at the hospital, suffering from
five gashes with a bowie knife, we have fore-
borne to personally oonsult him."
Hon. James H. Smith
From the Chronicle and Sentinol.] -
The following letter, addressed to a gentle
man in a neighberiog county, has been se^t to
ns with a request for publication:
Columbus, Oct. 3,1871/
MyDeab Sib—Your letter, saying that tho
Hon. Jas. Smith, member elect to the Legisla
ture from this county, is spoken of in connection
with the Speakership of tho next House of Rep
resentatives, and asking what manner of man he
is, has been recoived, and I avail myself of the
first opportunity to send you a hurried reply.
It may bo well to premise that Mr. Smith i9 my
friend and partner—a relation which, while not
permitted to influence my , on, at*he samo time
furnishes the best opportunity to judge of his
character and qualifications.
Well, then, he was bom ia Twiggs county, of
honorable but poor parents, and was brought up
aud educated in Monroo county. He is literally
a self-made man. When a boy he read every
thing he could lay his hands upon. Sometimes
he carried his books to his father’s blacksmith
shop and studied by the light of the forge, while
he worked the bellows, or read at night by pine-
knot fires. He prepared himself for the pro
fession of tho law, was admitted to the bar, and
subsequently removed to Upson county, where
he soon rose to distinction in the Flint and ad
joining Circuits. Ho did not confine himself
exclusively to the law, however, but extended
his studies to history, literature and the more
useful sciences, and is now one of our best in
formed men, as he is one of tho ablest, most
honorable and liberal-minded lawyers and states
men in the State. His party was in the minor
ity in the county and Congressional District in
which he formerly resided, and henc9, though
frequently called upon to lead a forlorn hopo
he was never elected to and never filled
any office. He was disabled in battle during
the late war, and was subsequently sent to
the Confederate Congress, where he served
one or two sessions. Under tho late act
of Congress, therefore, ho is not incapaci
tated, as I understand it, to hold any office,
State or Federal, to whioh the people may sea
fit to coll him.
From Upson Mr. Smith oame to Columbus
to reside after the war. He at once took rank
with the ablest members of his profession on
either side of the Chattahoochee, and is univer
sally esteemed by our people for his modesty,
integrity and ability. He was pressed into
service at tho last election very mnch against
his will, and chosen a member of the House of
Representatives by a very large majority. He
is now in tho prime of life, physically and in
tellectually; possesses a commanding person;
is modest and retiring in his disposition; does
not desire office; is a life-long Democrat, con
servative in his sentiments, and free from the
vagaries and isms of tho day; has a broad, well-
balanced mind, and a heart that beats respon
sive to the honor and welfare of tho people,
from whose vigorous loins ho sprung. Indeed,
I regard him as one of the coming men of the
South, and believe he would make a worthy suc
cessor to the illustrious Jenkins, who sp long
and so satisfactorily filled the Speaker’s chair in
the House of Representatives.
Very truly yours, P. W. A.
Mayor Hall Vindicatxd.—The Grand Jury
of the Superior Court of New Yoik oity, on
Wednesday, considered the subject of indicting
Mayor Hall for malfeasanoe in office. The wit
nesses examined were George Jones, Ax-Sheriff
O’Brien, Edward Baxter, furniture dealer, Mae-
terson and Palmer of the National Bank. The
bill against the Mayor was dismissed, bnt a vote
of censure passed on him for negligenoe in
office.
Yellow Fever.
NATOHEZ.
The Democrat, of the 17th. says there were
four deaths from yellow fever for the three days,
Friday p. m , the 13tb, to Monday p. m., the
lGch.
.The Democrat observes:
Of the condition of yellow fever in Natchez
we scarely know what to say. There is little
doubt but this scourge has reached its culmina
ting point, bnt thereis some difference of opin
ion whether it has increased or abated since our
last. The whole number of cases is probably
not greater, however than it was last Friday
evening, when we made our last report.
The Courier, of the 18tb, has the following
report:
We regret to record that there has been more
deaths from yellow fever during the last 48
hours than has occurred during the same num
ber of hours since its appearance this season.
There has been eight deaths from this disease
since 6 p. m. of Cctober 15.
The near approach, however, to the time
when we are usually vistied with a heavy frost,
gives us reason to hope that the worst is past,
and that our city will Soon be freed from thi3
terrible disease.
VICKSBURG.
We quote tho Herald of the 20th:
We regret that we cannot announce an im
provement in tho health of the city. We regret
to say that instead of improvement we have
quite an increase of yellow fever. There were
quite a number of new case3 yesterday, and
while the disease is believed to be more manage
able, and less fatal than heretofore, we are con
strained to advise our absentees to keep away.
We know they are all anxious to return, and
tho30 of us at home are anxious to see them
back again, but they must content themselves in
th6ir present abodes.
The Herald, of tho 21st, reports a few more
case3 of yellow fever, with a total of thirty or
thirty-five cases in all.under treatment” “The
cases,” continues tho Herald, “are generally
manageable, and yield readily to treament.”

Vagaries of a Starving Man.
Mr. Everts, who was lost in the Yellowstone,
contributes to Scribner’s an intensely interest
ing accountof his “Thirty-sevenDays of Peril.”
We quote: , , ..
“I lost all sense of timo. Days and nights
came and went, and were numbered only by tho
growing consciousness that I was gradually
starving. I felt no hunger, did not eat to ap
pease appetite, but to renew strength. I expe
rienced but little pain. The gaping sores on
my feet, the severe burn on my hip, tho fester
ing crevices at the joints of my fingers, all ter-
xible in appearance, had ceased to give me the
least concern. The roots which supplied my
food had suspended the digestivo power of the
stomach, and their fibres were packed in it in a
matted, compaot mass.
“Not so with my hours of slumber. They
wero visited by tho most luxurious dreams. I
would apparently visit tho most gorgeously de
corated restaurants in New York and Washing
ton; sit down to immense tables spread with the
most appetizing viands; partake of the richest
oyster stews and plumpest pies; engage myself
in the labor and preparation of curious dishes,
and with them fill range nfton range of elegant
ly furnished tables until they fairly groaned be
neath the accumulated dainties prepared by my
own hands. Frequently the entire night would
seem to haye been spent in getting np a sump
tuous dinner. I would realizo tho fatigue of
roasting, boiling, baking and fabricating the
choicest dishes known to tho modern cuisine,
and in my disturbed slumbers would enjoy with
epicurian relish the food thus furnished even to
repletion. Alas! there was more uxury than
life in these somnolent vagaries. * *
By some process which I was too weak to
solve, my arms, legs and stomach were trans
formed into so many travelling companions.
Often for hoars I would plod along conversing
with these imaginary friends. Each had his
peculiar wants which he expected mo to supply.
Tho stomaoh was importunate in his demand
for a change of diet—complained incessantly of
the roots I fed to him, their present effect and
more remote consequences. I wonld try to
silence him with promises, and beg of him to
wait a few days, and when this failed of tho
quiet I deBired, I wonld seek to intimidate him
by declaring, as a sure result of negligence, our
inability to reach home alive. All to no pur
pose—he tormented me with his fretful humors
through the entire journey. The others would
generally concur with him in these fancied al
tercations. Tho legs implored me for rest, and
the arms complained that I gave them too much
to do. Troublesome as they were, it was a
pleasure to realize their presence. I worked for
them, too, with right good will, doing many
things for their seeming comfort, which, had I
felt myBelf alone, wonld have remained undone.
They appeared to be perfectly helpless of them
selves; would.do nothing for moor for each
other. I often wondered, while they ate and
slept bo mnch, that they did not aid in gathering
wood and kindling fires. As a counterpoise to
their own inertia, whenever they discovered
langor in me on necessary occasions, they were
not wanting in words of encouragement and
cheer. I recall as I write an instance where,
by prompt and timely interposition, the repre
sentative of the stomach saved me from a death
of dreadful agony. One day I came to a small
stream Issuing from a Bpring of mild tempera
ture on the hillside, Bwarming with minnows.
I caught some with my hands and ate them raw.
To my taste they were delicious. Butthestomach
refused them, accused me of attempting to

had emptied my pooch of the few fish I had put
there for future use.”

Puogbess of Columbus.—A Now York drum
mer, who has travelled over all the important
Southern cities daring the last few weeks, ar
rived in Columbus yesterday. He gives out
freelyeas his opinion that our city exhibits
moro indications ef real and substantial pro
gress than any other that he has yet visited.
He’s right. When wo contemplate the wonder
ful recuperative energy displayed hero during
the past five years—an era in which onr people
as a mass have been ground to the earth under
tho terribly oppressive heels of poverty—even s
stranger must feel impressed with tho spirit
and vim which has been displayed in our midst.
Our progress has not been of that mushroom
sort which can wither in a day, but is of the
most solid and substantial stamp. When pros
perity shall havo once more become general
throughout our section, then will be seen more
dearly the proud position Columbu3 is destined
to occupy.
Tho Columbus and Augusta papers aro full
of their approaching Fairs. The Chronicle and
Sentinel says: *
All doubts as to the coming Cotton States
Exhibition can be set aside by an examination
of tho entry books in tho Sooiety’s ofiice. A
noticeablo fact conneoted therewith is that
exhibitors from abroad are more anxiousto
secure space, make their entries and receive
their tickets than onr home people. The latter
should not put off until tho last day what can
be done now, and the earliest possible attention
to this necessary duty will facilitate the work of
the office very .much.
Aid fob Chicago.—We are permitted to make
tho following dispatch public, which was sent

and distribnte it among your afflicted people.

Maj. T. P. Branch, the subscribing member
and leading spirit of lhe firm, was a gallant of

a prisoner of war, was drawn a hostage, and
finally, with many others, was planted in range
of the guns of Fort Sumter.—Charleston News,
The Savannah Republican, of Friday con
tains the following:
As no one disposed to invest appears to have
money enough to buy the Republican entire, I
offer for sale one half interest in the establish
ment. With a purchaser competent to take en
tire superintendence of its business affairs,
liberal terms will be made. None others need
apply. The Peopbietoe.
Brunswick and Albany Raxlboad Procla
mation.—We have been thinking over this doc
ument, and wo confess we are a little puzzled.
The Governor probably means well, but we can
not see clearly through the case as he puts it.
The law authorizing the State endorsement of
the railroad bonds, gives power to seize and
operate the road in the event the company
should fail to pay the interest as it accrues or
the principal as the bonds mature. Neither of
these events has happened, and yet the Gover
nor has seized the road and put it in the hands
of an agent of the State. Has the company
abandoned the work ? In that case we can see
how the Governor might intervene in order to
secure the State against loss. Bat there is no
evidence of tho fact, and the Governor doesnot
pat his act on such ground.
And again, we cannot see what the Governor
of the State has to do with the private interests
of citizens who have performed labor upon, or
furnished material for the construction of the
road. He' says he seizes the road to secure
these parties—by what authority of law ? Do
not these creditors of the road stand on the
samo footing with all other creditors, and is it
customary for the Governor to intervene to en
force the settlement of private debts ?
And again: the Govtmor gives notioe to the
bondholders—those who have purchased them
from the company—that unless the company
shall pay its laborers and contractors, the State
will not recognize her obligation as endorser.
The question arises: What havo the bondhold
ers to do with the relations between the com
pany and its employes and contractors;-is it
nominated in the bonds that the company must
act equarely with its employees and contractors,
or else the State, a3 an endorser, will not be
bound ? We think not; and yet the Governor
seems to proceed on the idea that some such
condition exists somewhere.
We are in the dark on these points, but wo
hope to ba enlightended when tho Governor
shall return and explain his movement to tho
Legislature.
Judge Hook fob Senatoe.—A correspondent
of the Augusta Constitutionalist proposes Judge
James S. Hook, of Richmond, for Senator, and
the Constitutionalist says:
No name will be presented before tho Legis
lature for that responsible office, embodying a
finer combination of puro personal character,
exemplary Christian virtues and soholorly and
professional attainments. Indeed, it is rarely
the case that any community can boast as high
a typo of the Christian gentleman, the benevo
lent man and the good citizen, exemplary in all
things from his youth up, combined with superi
or talents, and sound, statesmanlike judgment.
Judge Hook is endowed with those solid quali
ties of mind which give proper balance to
character, self-relianco in forming opinions, aud
independence in carrying out convictions. We
submit this estimate to the verdict of those who
served with Judge Hook in the Legislature of
18G3 and the State Convention of I860, as well
as to his professional associates, in full confi
dence that the picture will not be pronounced
overdrawn.
The Wilkes County Fats.—The Washington
Gazette says:
On next Tuesday week, the 7th proximo, the
annual fair of the “Old Wilkes Farmers’ Club”
will open at this place. This exhibition, in spite
of croakers, is going to be the best local Fair in
the State. The beautifurfcronnds purchased by
the club are rapidly approaching completion,
and wo challenge the State to show a more
beautiful spot for snch an exhibition. The whole
club, but the committee in chaTge of the grounds
especially, are working with the most commen
dable energy to have everything ready in time,
and it will be ready, old Wilkes always has been
and always will bo. Our citizens of both sexes
are greatly interested in getting articles ready
for exhibition, and every man, woman and child
in the county ought to have something to show
at the Fair.
Financial Condition of Savannah.—The Ad
vertiser summarises the Finance Committee’s
statement as follows:
It will ‘be seen that the committee report
upon tho information and figures furnished
them by the City Treasurer, Captain John R.
Johnson. The summary of the report is as fol
lows : i
Current and extraordinary expenses from
October 1st, 1870, to September 80th,
1871 $623,000
Amount of receipts from taxation during
• that time : 560,000

Glothh.—J. L. Shea, of this oity, received the
medal at the State Fair for the best suit
of olothes made in Georgia. Nobody will be
surprised at that, for Mr. Shea is as good a
tailor as can be found anywhere.
Expenses over receipts .$ 63,000
The supposition is that thero will be a reduc
tion of $40,000 expenses during the next
year, which will reduce the deficiency to
$23,000, which, added to other expenses row
accumulating and to aoonmnlate, from onr in

BY TELEGRAPH.
The San Domingo Annexation plot is carried
on with a high hand. Acoording to advices
from that “Sister Republic,” tho President has
given unconditional assurances of speedy an
nexation—and a fleet of six armed vessels of
the United States army oarry instructions to
back Baer against the world.
The instructions which Secretary Robeson
has at different times issued to our naval officers
in the waters of San Domingo, and whioh are
still in foroe, are as follows:
“Afford countenance and assistance to the
Dominican people against their enemies now on
the island and in revolution against the lawfully
constituted government, rad use the force at
your command to resist at „• attempts to invade
the Dominican territory by land or sea.
“This government is determined to proteot
the present Dominican government with all its
power. Use you force to give it the most ample
protection against any power attempting to in
terfere with it If the Haytians attack the
Dominioans with their ships, destroy or capture
them.
“While your force is temporarily reduoed,
use renewed vigilanoe to protect the interest of
President Baez, and conform as far aa possible
to his wishes.”
Chableston, Ootober 27.—Advices from the
upper portion of the State report increasing ter
ror aud confusion in the proclaimed counties,
on account of the numerous arrests made under
the President’s proclamation. The Yorkville
Enquirer, received to-night, says: “Tho whole
sale arrests made by the military in this county
have a very depressing influence on business
and industrial pursuits generally, and we pre
sume such will bo the case throughout the en
tire seotion of the State embraced in th9 pro
clamation of the President. Crops remain in
the fields unharvested and.ou account of the
general feeling of insecurity business is nearly
at a stand still, while a large number of persons
have left the county rather than incur the un
pleasant and uncertain oonsequenoes of arrest.
The future of our seotion is now more gloomy
than it has been at any time since tho close of
tho war. Tho grand jury of Chester county,
composed of six whites and six negroes, made
a presentment embodying the result of their
investigations of the alleged Ku-klux outrages
there and concludes as follows: We, the grand
jurors, upon our oaths are compelled to say
from the testimony which we have taken and
from onr knowledge of the different parts of
the county, that the allegations contained in the
proclamation of tho President of the United
States are without foundation, and must be the
result of falsehoods communicated to him by
persons equally regardless of good order and
the peace of society.
New Yobk, October 27.—Tweed was served
with an order of arrest early this afternoon by
Sheriff Brennan. Tweed stated that he was
anxious to go before the Court. After a lengthy
consultation between the counsel, bail was given
to the amount of $2,000,000, by Jay Gould,
Terrenco Farley, Hugh Hastings, Bernard
Kelly, and B. O. Fairchild. Another suit has
been commenced in the Supremo Court against
Tweed, by the Corporation Counsel O’Gorman,

The attractive figure which Senator Schurz
makes in American politics, the delivery of his
speech to a large audience last night, and its
publication in tho papers this morning, will ren
der a brief sketch of his romantio career inter
esting to our readers.
Carl Schurz was born at Liblar, near Cologne,
Germany, March 2, 1829. After a full course
of studies in the Gymnasium of Cologne, he
went, in 184G, to the University of Bonn, where
ho studied history, philosophy and the ancient
languages, until the ontbreak of the revolution
of 1848. He took an active part in the prevail
ing agitation, and joined Gotfried Kinkel, a
professor of rhetoric, in the publication of a lib
eral newspaper, the conduct of which devolved
wholly upon Schurz in consequence of Kinkel’s
absence as a member of the Prussian Legisla
ture. An unsuccessful attempt to produce an
insurrection at Bonn, in 1849, obliged both Kin
kel and Schnrz to flee to the Palatinate, where
Schurz joined a body of revolutionary troops
and participated in the defence of Rastadt. On
the surrender of that fortress he concealed him
self three days and nights, without food, and
finally, escaping through a sewer, made his way
across the Rhine, arriving in Switzerland in
August, 1849, where he remained in seclusion
till the following May. Kinkel was captured,
condemned to twenty years’ imprisonment, and
shut up in the fortress of Spaldan. After a long
correspondence with the wife of bis imprisoned
compatriot, Schnrz undertook his resene, made
his way secretly back to Germany in May, 1850,
and, after three months of preparation, suc
ceeded. On the night of November 6, 1850,
Kinkel’s cell was broken open, and he was
brought to the roof of the prison and safe
ly lowered to the ground. Tho fugitives
escaped the same night aoross the fron
tier and arrived at Leith about December 1.
Schurz lived at Paris and London as a newspa
per correspondent till 1852, when he married in
the latter city and emigrated to America. After
spending three years in legal, historical and po
litical studies in Pniladolpkia, he settled in Mad-
ison, Wisconsin. His subsequent career in this
country is too well known to need mention here.
Bold and self-poised both in thought and ac
tion, the leader of the large German element of
onr population, a man who makes a fine im
pression everywhere by the frank sincerity of
his utterances and the generosity of his senti
ments, and withal an orator whose easy com
mand of apt and idiomatio English is simply
wonderful, he is a power in American polities,
and we believe his influence will be exerted in
the interest of amagnanimous patriotism.
