Tlie French Crisis.
The French, we judge, have patsed
through their reconstructive crisis with a
dignity and deoorom which do them great
honor. By a vote of 53G to 99 they havo
filled their executive vaoanoy In less than
twenty-four hours, withont wrangling
contention, and with snob judgment
to command the reaped and confidence
of the nation and the world. We donbt
not the change from Marshal MscMahon
M. Grevy will almost universally be pros
noucoed an Improvement, and will go far
to brighten the fatureand ls3sen the rea
sonable anxieties which may be felt Inre
lation to the great issues of next year.
The cause of liberal and free government
has been strengthened in and ont
Franoe by the conservative and patriotio
action of this French Congreae, and we
feel renewed assurance that the same tem
per will be shown to have been triumphant
in all the minor steps taken yesterday—the
result of which willappear in later tele
grams in this edition. ...
It is due also to tho retiring President
to say that ho has displayed a oammenda-
ble spirit of patriotism and eelf-abnega-
tion in the manner of hia retirement, and
the graoe and dignity with whiob he has
maintained bis own conviotiors of pab-
iio duty.
Tlie Season—Warm Weather.
A short time ago the severity of the
weather was a common subject of remark
in Macon, bat for tho past fortnight the
note is changed, and apprehensions of a
premature cut-put of the fruit treea are
expressed universally- Tho temperature
of the past two weeks haa ranged between
sixty and seventy, and the moist spring
like atmosphere haa been more favorable
to germination and growth than the gen
eral rnn of weather summer or winter. A
few days moro of the aamo temperature
would place the peach trees in blossom.
To-day, (Friday,) we aro having a gentle
and steady rain, which may be followed
by a cooler spell, bat there are no present
indications of snob a change.
Gardeners have been busy the past
week. Irish potatoes aodipeas have been
extensively planted, and some of tho lat
ter arc up. Cabbigo ond lettcoe have
been transferred to ' h« open beds. Beets
may be risked to a dj-» urate extent. Spin-
aoh, oarrols, pardo •and selaifer have
stood the worst cf tne winter severity
ont doors, and are now growing rapidly,
and so ha9 cabbage. Tne truth is, ail
tho moro hardy standard vegetables will
fight their way through onr frosts and
freezes, withvorylittle growth, however,
until nanally about the first of February.
“Westward tbVstar ot Em
pire Takes Its course.’*
It would seem that the advise of the
Sage of Chappaquau, Horace Greeley,
‘•YoaDg man go West” haa been literally
followed, and the stalwart youth and
even middle aged mechanics and laborers,
wit’i their families, continue to pour into
that teeming region, whose ocean like
areas of prairie anc( ‘‘boundless conti.
guity of ahade” remain undisturbed,
save by the roaming buffalo, graceful
antelope and the red man of the forest.
It appears that tho hegira is in the main
from the Middle and Eastern States, es
pecially the crowded manufacturing dis
tricts of New England. And we are not
surprised at it. Who would not ex
change the squalor and scanty subsis
tence to be earned by a life of continued
and exhausting toil at Lowell or Fall
Biver, where the very air you breathe is
foul with gieasa and cotton fibres, and
there is no hope or prospect in the fu
ture, for the pure atmosphere and real
independence of a home in the wilder
ness?
To form some idea of the rapid increase
of this westward emigration,it is only ne-
osssary to slate that the Government
sales of <he public domain for 1878 ex
ceeded those of the previous year by 4.-
224 000 acres, and it is estimated that be
tween 15.000,000 aad 18,000,003 aores of
new land were entered, for the most part
by actual settlers in tho year ttai haa
just expired. The number of persons
who have moved in and located to the
west and southwest of St. Lonie, in the
past year, ia set down at eix hundred
thousand, of whom, from the best infor.
motion that can be obtained, not moro
than eighty thousand were foreign emi
grants We see it stated, too, (hat Texas
lays claim to the heaviest immigration of
any other State in the Union duriDg
1878. 8ome place the increase as high
as 500.000, which, however, is probably
an exaggeration. But it certainly reached
several hundred thousands.
The gain in Kansas is placed at 125,000
inhabitants, and emigrants continue to
flock into that fertile State. A Western
paper says "it ia a fact not generally
mown that Kansas now stands at the
head of the wheat producing Slates, the
eroD for last year being placed at 32,000,-
000 bushels. Of this vast quantity over
13 000,000 bushels were raised in the
Arkansas valley, which wai settled only
eight years ago.’’
The number of eettlers in Minnesota
for the past year is estimated at 50,000,
while Nebraska and Dakota each claim
100,000. From the above, it is easy to
eee that nolens volens the poor Indians are
destined to ba crowded ont, and ero tho
lapse perhaps of ono short decade
of years, every square mile of arable
land east of the Bo$ky mountains will
be occupied by the white race, represent-
ing neatly every nationality in Earope
This new world of onrs haa accomplished
more, snd made grander strides in the
march of oivilizition and real human prog
ress in two centuries than the Eastern Con
tinent can lay claim to in a thousand years.
Transplanting to this genial clime has
served to add new vigor, elaBtioity and
thrift to the denizens of the old world,
just ss the crowded, half-suffooated plant
in a hotbed expands in the open air, and
with ample room pots forth now strength
and laxnriance. What will two addition
al centuries achieve for Each a god-blessed
country ?
A Solvent Case of Wonder
Is started by the Cincinnati Enquirer in
the following: A country (bat has six
montfcB’ steady winter, where, daring
that period, outdoor labor is unproduc
tive, and where cattle must be well shelt
ered, and fed and watered twice a day by
hand, and where it is difficult to keep
worm within doors—ench a country is
not the one persons hunting new homes
and intending to farm for a living should
choose to settle in. It should rather be
avoided. It costs too much to live in
such a country. A winter half a year
long is a great drawback to suctesifal
farming, as there is so much loss of time,
and increased expenses for clothing, fuel
and feeding of stock.
We have, therefore, wondered why
persona ehonld seek the climates of
Michigan, Wisconsin and Minnesota,
instead of the genial climates and equal
ly produot : ve soils of Virginia, North
Carolina, Tennessee: and the northern
portions of Alabama: to say nothing of
those cf Missouri and Ariassas. We
are aware that it is a law of immigration
to move on tho game line of latitude as
the starting place, but with a thinking
people under the same General Govern
ment that law might be advantageously
disregarded. In tho States we have
named the winters are short, fnel abun
dant, and stock needs little feeding dar
ing the winter months. And what is
more, they are nearer the seaboard mar-
kets. .
CHXW JaCESON’S BIST SWEET NAVY TO-
BACCO. onvizdawly
It is an III Wind tnat Blows No-
body any Good.
Contested elections in Savannah, Ma
con, and divers counties, "injunctions,’
etc., in addition to a fall criminal calen
dar in all parte of the country, have mode
litigation lively, and the lawyers are
happy. Oar own city municipality mud
die will disperse thousands among the
legal fraternity, and the end is not yet.
Nowadays, the Snpreme Conrt is made
the universal arbiter of every cuit that'by
any stretch of technicality or adroitness,
can be gotten before it. And seldom does
the learned limb of the law fail in his
efforts to compass that end from a hun
dred dollar Civil suit to tho movement for
a new trial in the caso of the convicted
mnrdercr. It really begins to look
though the lower tribunals were but fifth
wheels to the vehicle of justice. Still,
after all, this is but right and proper, for
a man, tf he is willing to pay for it, ought
to be entitled to justice “in its last
analysis.’’
The only objection (which cannot.
howeTar, be obviated) is the costly ma
chinery of the lower judicatories to the
tax-payera, and the Herculean labor it
imposes upon the judges of the Supreme
Court. If there is any further increase
in their duties, it may become actually
necessary to appoint siu in lieu of three
members of that exalted judicatory, form
ing relays of Supreme Justices, asit were,
to decide the peoples differences. There
is no doubt that a harder worked body of
officials cannot be found in the Union, or
any who, when their responsibilities and
services are considered are worse paid.
This is a disgrace to our great State.
But the writer has wandered away
from the object he had in view at the
outset, which was to call attention to the
mammoth railroad suit now pending in
Tennessee. The Knoxville Tribune styles
it a "gigantic litigation” and “combined
movement against the railroads of the
State.’’ The amount involved is about
eighteen millions of dollars. The snit is
brought in the United States Circuit
Court, sitting at Knoxville, by Edward L.
Andrews, associate counsel with Judge
Hoadley, of Cincinnati, with Charles
O’Conor as couneel and adviser in New
York.
The bill asks for the appointment of a
Receiver, with a view to obtaining pay
ment of baok interest on bonds issued to
the East Tennessee. Virginia and Georgia
Bailroad nnder the Internal Improvement
Act of 1852 and subsequent acta. The
effect of the bill is first to collect the
overdue interest, and then, when the deb
falls due, and if not paid, to sell the road
under the statute under which the bondB
were issued.
The contest will be spirited and hotly
contested, and doubtless will proves per
fect bonanza to the army of counsel who
will be retained on either side. Well, we
have no nse for the lawyer or doctor when
everything moves along smoothly, but
let trouble come in the shape of sickness
or pecuniary difficulty, and there is need of
both. Howgladly then are they welcomed
to our counsels and hearts. And why
should not those who dance “pay tho
Piper.” a
Sea Fowl Guano.
The familiar out of a water fowl stand
ing on a lone rock in tho midst of old
Ocean, reminds the attentive reader that
Mr. H. T. Johnson is again in the field
with the celebrated Sea Fowl gnano. It may
ba ramarkedalso parparenthese, that the
standard of this excellent compound is
even higher tbi3 year than ever before.
Mr. Johnson ia resolved also to accommo
date the pries to the purses of his patrons
and only asks them to give him a trial.
He is satisfied if they will bat consent to
do eo, that there will be no just cause for
complaint. This guano trade, of course
to flourish, should bo reciprocal in
its oneratioD. It mnst ba patent to the
farmer that he will be benefittod to tne
orient that will justify him in the outlay
necessary in tho premises, and ot the
same time the dealer mnst be ceitain that
thero is at least a Email margin of profit
as his share of the transaction. All that
is necessary is for tho parties to meet face
to face and talk the matter over in a
friendly spirit, and every difference, we
think, will be harmoniously adjusted. We
are opposed to conventions of manufac
turers, farmer’s leagues, and every pro-
jeot that interferes with the perfect lib
erty of any individual to act as ho pleases
in the management of hiB own private
business. If a man’s land is poor, and
these artificial stimulants are necessary lo
insure him good crops, if he can afford to
purchase tnem, let him do so without
let or hindrance. The price is his own
affair, and will m03t certainly be regu
lated by the amount of bis means
and the exigences of the situation. Tho
established principle of supply and de
mand alone can modify the conditions ef
hia purchase. But we shall not pause to
elaborate this postulate in political econ
omy, Suffice it to say in this connection
that the writer has used the Seafowl
guano more than once and knows it to
be a first-class fertilizers, that is enro to
give satisfaction. Moreover,_ he will
find no difficulty in effecting his purcha
ses upon accommodating terms from Mr.
Johnson. H-ad his advertisement.
Southern War Claims.
The House, according to the press tel
egrams yesterday, went into a long wran
gle over Southern war claims, Chalmers,
of Mississippi, leading off in reply to the
late Philippio of Bragg, of Wisconsin.
Southern Dem cerate will find no gain or
comfort on that line of travel.
The "Southern war claims,”' so called,
which are beforo Congress or any other
branch of the government, are, as to
probably ninely-nino oae-hundredths of
them, claims, in which Southern people
can feel neither interest nor sympathy.
They are necessarily olaims preferred on
account of an exceptional “loyalty,” or in
other words, hostility to the views and
feelings of the Southern people at the
time these alleged claims arose. Why
Southern representative men should be
urgent in poshing such claims may be
reasonable question, unless they havo
seewred a pecuniary interest in them,
rhich is not a reasonable hypothesis in
the present state of the law.
There is no practical utility in such
discussions. Few Northern Democrats
will support a Southern war daim of any
kind, and the other side will bo solid
against them. Even Tilden, when run
ning for the Presidency, felt himself
obliged, as a matter of policy, to repudi
ate th.-m in advanoc. We might as well
label the Democratic national candidates
“mad dog” as to bring them before the
Northern people tainted with the sus
picion of favoring any Southern war
claims.
This may be, aa Chalmers says, open to
the objection that It treats the people of
the South “as inferiors in the Union,” Jsnd
that they are treated as inferiors is a no
torious faot, too plain and self-evident to
need demonstration. The Southern peo
ple and States are praotioally inferior, in
the Union—they eame baek into It aa
oonqenred anbjects, and it Is the sole ob
ject and aim of the Badioal party to
keep them bo. In order the most effect
ually to help them is this enterprise and
enlist a solid' North in the work, we need
do nothing more than tokeepnp an/ in
effectual olatter abont Sonthern war
otaims. That will do the business. We
can never take position aB practical equals
in the Union, but with the free consent
of the people of the conquering States,
manifested legally by the ballot in the
eleorion of a Chief Magistrate holding
those view?.
Yonog Men Never Despond,
Gut go to Work.
The present is a season of great per*
plexity and tronble to the educated yonng
men of the country who areoomar atively
withont means, yet honest and eager to
go to work. Time and again has the
writer received the moet urgent and af
fecting letters from young friends in all
parts of the State asking him to get them
situations as book-keepers, clerks, teach
ers, railway officials, anything that af
forded honest employment- Me ha3 es
eayed to do so, bat usually with indiffer
ent eucoess. A hungry crowd <jf expect
ants are ever on the watch for vacancies
in every department of busiaesi and long
before we can even hear of any opening,
the “place” haa been filled.
This condition of affairs has tended
in no little degree to discourage and dis
countenance a collegiate education. There
is a disposition to embark in business at
a very tender ago, and while wholly un
prepared for its ultimate ends and
grandest results. A lad of fifteen may,
by practice, become tolerably expert aB
a salesman and learn the routine of the
mercantile profession. Bnt he can never
(always providing that he i3 not a con
stant and patient student In leisure
hours) rise any higher.
The great questions of political econ
omy and practical jurisprudence which
underlie success in every vocation are a
sealed book to him, and he simply plods
along in the beaten track of tho strikers
and subordinates of those who, by their
sagacity and superior attainments become
merohant princes and grandees in the
land. We admit that the temptation to
the impecunious and needy youth to em.
bark forthwith in business is very great.
But if, even by the severest sacrifices and
unwearied personal exertion, he oan pro-
core a liberal education, if the trua grit
ia in him and nature has bestowed even
ordinary endowments, with integrity end
industry success is inevitable.
Education is the passport into any
cirole, however fastidious, and the pre
requisite for employment and advance
ment in all the more respectable and ex
alted pursuits ot life* It ia the talisman
that levels mountains, fills np valleys and
grades the pathway of civilization and
science. Hence, all should avail them
selves of this great leTer in the attain
ment of any catthly object. Jnst
here, however, it ia suggested that fre
quently a goed scholar, fresh from the
schools, in times like these cannot get
employment, for laok of experience and
the dearth of situations. This contin
gency does not often ocour where the
yonng man is known— ceteris paribus,
learning conpled with integrity, is sore
to have preccdeacs m every honest voca
tion. In such cases, however, rather
than be idle, engage at once in agrionl-
tnral pursuits. Here your knowledge
will not be thrown away, and intelligent
labor; finds a sure reward. Indeed, the
moat successful planters the writer haa
ever known were scholars and sa
vants. Among these may be men
tioned James H. Cooper, the father
of those distinguished scientists. Profes
sors John and Joseph LsConte, Mr. Wil
liam Jones, now of Athens, but formerly
of Libetty county, aud many others. Ba
content then to delve in Mother Eirth for
a support if needs be, and most probably
so fascinated will yon beoome with that
life of coirfoit and genuine independence
that you will never forsake it again even
for the fliwcry paths ot Iiteratnrc. Be
sides, where can yon exert a wider and
more salutary tLflaeuco than as a leader
and component part of that all important
element in eociety and the commonwealth,
the nobis farmers of tho country. But in
no event bs discouraged, or abandon the
fight for usefulness, happiness and inde
pendence. Honest labor never degrades
bat ennobleB those who are not ashamed
to work, and rest assured, panoplied with
the armor of|ednoation and intelligence,it
will not be IODg before you aro “called
np higher.”
In this connection we are tempted to
reproduce as peculiarly apposite, the ad
vice of the eccentrio but brilliant Car
lyle, to a desponding young man. We
give the entiro text:
Chelsea, Nor. 17, 1850.
Apparently you are a yonng man of
unusual, parhapB of extreme sensibility,
and placed at present in the unfortunate
position of having nothing to do. Ysgne
reverie, chaotic meditation, the fruitless
effort to sound the unfathomable, ia the
natural result for you. Buch a form of
character indicates the probability of su
perior capabilities to work in this world;
but is also, unless guidsd towards work,
the inevitable propheoy ot much suffer
ing, disappointment, and failure In your
course of life. Understand always that
the end of man m in action, notin
thought. Endeavor incessantly with all
the etrength that is in you, to ascertain
what—there where yon are, there as yon
are—you oan do In this world; and npon
that bend your whole faculties; regard-
ingall reveries, feeing*, singular thonghte,
moods, eto., as worth nothing whatever,
exoept aB they bear npon that, and will
help you towards that. Yonr thought,
moods, eto., will thus, in part, legitimate
themselves, and become frnitfnl posses
sions for yon; in part fall away aa illegit
imate and die ont of the way, and yonr
goal will become clearer to yon every step
yon oonrageously advanoe towards it. No
man ever understood this universe; eaoh
man may understand what good and man
ful work it lies with him to acoompllBh
there. “Cheer np, there's gear to win
you never saw.” So says the old song;
and I oan say no more to you.
Yours, etc., T. Gabltli.

The New Frencb President.
Francois Paul Jules Grevy was born at
MoDtsous-Vandrez, Jura, August 15th,
1813. After being graduated from the
College of Poligny, he read law in Paris,
and he was a student there in tho days
of July, 1880, when Charles X, threw
away the crown of France over a game of
whist at Versailles. He flung himself
ardently into the revolution, and waa
with the corps which stormed the bar
racks of the Bue deBahylone. Like most
thoiongh going Republicans, he was soon
disappointed by the rule of tho Citizen
King, and he earned distinction early as
a defender of those members of the Rad
ical party who were prosecuted by the
government. He made hia first famous
plea in the case against two of the com
panions of Barbee. Throughout tho
monarchy of Jnly he remained faithful
to his oouvictions, and after the flight of
Louie Phillippe, in 1848, he waa made a
commissioner of the provisional govern'
ment for hia department.
He filled the diffioult duties of the post
with such tact and moderation, and so
carefully avoided compromising himself
in the quarrels of the Republican factions
that ho became the most popular man in
the Jura. In the election for members
ot the Assembly he was first on the list
of the eight chosen. In the Assembly
he was made a Vice-President and a
member of the Judioiary Committee. He
spoke often and earned a high reputa
tion as a debater. He took an independ
ent position, but as a rale voted with the
Extreme Left. He proposed that the
Executive should be chosen by the Na
tional Assembly aud hold office at its
pleasure, with the title of President of
the Coaaail of Ministers, bat the propo
sition was defeated by a vote of 643 to
158.
After the presidential election of De
cember 10. M. Grevy opposed the policy
of Louis Napoleon and especially the
expedition to Rome. He was re-elected
to the Corp3 Legislate, and, without
making common cause with the Radicals,
became one of principal opponents of the
government. He protested against the
law of May 31 and oppoied the revision
of the constitution. After the coup d’etat
of December, 1851, he gave himself up
entirely to the practice of his profession,
and in 1868 he became batonnier of the
Order of Advocates.
In the same year and again in 1869
and 1871, he was elected a member of
the Corps Legislate. The election of
1868 was the first sinoe 1852, in whloh
the Government had been completely
routed, and M. Grevy was then returned
by a majority so decisive that at the en
suing election no offioial candidate was
opposed to him, and he received eight-
ninths of all the votes east. He was cho
sen President of the Assembly in Marob,
1871, and held that position down to
April, 1873, whan he deolined the invita
tion of Preeident Thiers to seive longer
in that capaoity. Ever since the estab-
liaiunent of the Third Republio he has
bees looked npon aa the netnral head of
the Conservative Republicanism of
Franoe.
*A better article it is impossible to

Diclixxd.—"Plain Farmer” haa ad
dressed as another long iettsr, whiob we
do not print, beoause of oar belief that
this eantrovsray has gone quits far
enough. Both sides have had a full bear
ing ia the Txlxqbafh, and no*!it ia our
mission to promote good will and har
mony between them, not to perpetutte
strife. “Plain Farmer's” missive would
ceitsinly have elioited a reply probably
in tho same spirit, and so tho quarrel
would go on indefinitely, without accom
plishing a partiale of good.
The whole matter rests with the farm
ers of tbe oountry in any event, and they
will boy or refuse to buy fertil z its, just
as their interests dictate.
We did not approve of the action of
the convention of manuiactnrers, because
it was a question which each dealer
should Lava been allowed to decide for
himself. Nor is it right to insist upon
any Itague among the planters to coerce
the guano tnen to sell at any fixed price.
Rest assured, the matter will be regulated
just as tho price of corn, bacon, bagging
or any other commodity a3justs itsrif to
bottom figures, under tho spur of compe
tition. Alcoa iy we hear of excellent fer
tilizers which cm bo had very cheap for
cash or cotton, though there seems to be
a disposition to deal for cash only, which,
when practioable, is by far tho better
plan.
Wo tiust there will bo no further con
tention in tho premises.
Th* Pacific Kaileoad Five Pan Cent
Case.—The caso of the Union Pacific
Railroad Company against tbe United
States, appeal from the Court of Claims,
and known as the five per cent, case, was
decided by the United States Supreme
Court last Taesday. It is held that tbe
road was completed in November, 1669,
as the Government maintained; that all
ordinary and useful expenditures for re
pairs and improvements are to be deduoted
from the gross receipts in computing net
earnings, bnt not the intereat on its
bonded indebtedness, except that on first
mortgage bonds, to which the Govern
ment yolnnlarily subordinated its claim.
Out of the net earnings of each year since
1869 tbe company, it is held, must first
pay the interest on its first mortgage
bonds. If, after so doing, a surplus re
mains, that surplus, eo iar as it will go,
is properly aubject to the five per cent,
claim of tke United StateB, and must bo
so applied. The decision *3 a whole is
adverse to the railroad company, and tho
Government will recover nnder it more
than two-thirds of the amount which it
claims. Justices Strong and Harlan dis
sent from the opinion of tho Conrt as to
the priority to bo given to the interest on
the first mortgage bonds.
Cxdab Ket Oysters.—No more im
portant contribution to the ars vivendi hae
lately been made in Macon than the regu
lar daily importation of the Cedar Key
oysters. Cedar Key lies at the mouth of
the Suwannee river, and the wash of that
river produces a fine, large, fac oyster,
whiob, in sober faot, leaves nothing to be
desired in respect to all the qualities of
an oyster—for, in point* of flavor, in its
normal condition, it is unrivalled in the
United States.
The Cedar Key Fish and Oyster Com
pany, of which W. S. Bunting is agent,
made their contracts here too late in the
season to reap the fall reward ot their
enterprise; bat we doubt not that next
year the Cedar Key oyster, at the eame
prioe, will lead the market largely, and
Macon may boast a daily and cheap sup
ply of oysters.of a quality fairly unsur
passed by any market in the United
States. .
The company also ore forming arrange
ments with many other interior markets
in Georgia for n general business in fish
and oysters. For snappers, gramptra,
trout, red-fish, spotted base, flounders
mullet and many other fish. Cedar Keys
is a famous place.

The following lines were handed ns yi
terday. They were penned by a young
lady of the city who will not even allow

pronounced mo ritonoua and contain a
tender sentiment:
LOVE UNEXPBE33ED.
Tbe sweetest notes among the human heart
strings
Are dull with rast:
The i weetest chords, adjusted by the angels,
Ar* elegged with dust:
Wepipe and pipe again our dreary music,
Upon tne scll-tame strains.
While sounds of crime and fear and desolation,
Come back in sad refrains.
On trbough tho world wo go, an army marching.
With listening years:
Bach longing, sighing for a word of com’ort,
A word of tenderpraise.
A word of love to cheer tne endless journey,
Of earth’s hard busy days,
They love us and we know it, this sulficss
For reason’s share.
Why should they pause to give that love.
Expression with gentle care?
Why should they pause! But still our hearts are
aching
With all the gnawing pain.
Of hungry love that longs tohear the music,
And tongs and longs in vain-
We love them and they know it; if we falter
With fingers numb.
Among tbe unused strings of love’s expression,
Tbe notes are dumb:
We shrink within ourselves in voicoless sorrow,
De&vingtbe words unsaid,
And side by side with those we lore tbs dearest,
In silence on we tread.
Thus on we tread, and thus each heart in silence
Its fate fulfills.
Waiting and hoping for the heavenlymusic.
Heyoud tbs distant bills;
Tbe only difference of the lore in heaven.
From love on earth below,
Is: here we love, and know not how to tell it—
And there we all shall know*

not be mads permanent nnles3 a plan,
which is variously supported, is agreed

Aberman’s March to the Sen—Hie
Memory.
General Sherman’s visit to Macon was
quite the theme with the colored popula
tion yesterday, and a good many eeemed
to be of the opinion that he is “a bigger
man than Grant,” and those who Bhook
his hand were looked npon something
like the moon, which, by association with
his majesty the eun, imbibes some of hie
brilliancy. On the journey from Atlanta
the General quietly ensconced himself in
the car.
In the section of country where his
army had marched ho manifested con
siderable intereat, asking quite a num
ber of questions as to the various places
through which he was passing.
When Rough and Ready was called

looking around quite closely. Before
the train had stopped he remarked ju3t
a. few yards farther on, indicating the
direction with his hand, should be a
small shanty, and in a moment more the
little shanty came into view.
Looking across the fields he indicated
where vanons troops had been stationed,
and remarked “just over yonder on that
hill there ehonld bs a large white house,'”
and Btooping in the oar so as to oommaud
a better view of the hill from the oar win
dows, the hoase stood oat among the
trees, a little Issa whits thin when the
great forager oame throngb, but in the
looation indioated. Tho soeuee, topog

oountry seemed aa familiar to him aa if

Maud Hulier—Miee Genevieve Rowers
Miss Genevieve Rogers will to-morrow
evening play “Maud Muller,” at Ralston
Hall. The salo of seats gives token of a
good house. The play was preaented
here last season, and so well pleased
were our people that there was a general
wish expressed to eee not only the little
star, but the piece itself, again. On
Taesday evening the well known pliy of
“Ticket-o’-Leave Man” will be given in
stead of the new piece, "Coo sin Roxy.”
From the Savannah News we taka the
Maoon is generally conceded to be the I following:
beat place in the State for holding the Genevieve Rogew, the brilliant
Fairs. Her grounds are ample, easy of
access, the race track magnifleentpeity
accommodations cqnal to almost any
emergency, centrally located, and many
other advantages which might be enum
erated, but which are patent.
Tbe Woman ef tbe People.
Yesterday afternoon, at Ralston Hall,
a very nice matinee audience assembled
to witness the presentation of “Tbe Wo
man of tbe People” by Mrs. Chanfran,
supported by Mr. C. W. Tayleure’s
select company. Mrs. Chanfran made
a most happy impression hero last year
m the two strongly emotional dramas,
“Parted”and “Was Sae Right?” and en
joys the best opinions with our people.
The attendance at the matinee ceitaiuly
was a3 sure an indication as could be
given of this fact
The play presented yesterday after
noon is an adaptation from the Frenoh
and iB one of the strong emotional melo
dramas of that peculiar school. The
heroine ia taken from tho lower ranks of
life, and th’o appeal to the working classes
of the population is very powerful. Be
sides, there is a higher vein of aoting
which does not pass without its effeot on
all, while the sentiments and situations
of the drama appeal to the sympathies of
the audience.
It will bs remembered that lost year,
when “Parted” was played by the same
artiste, tbe moistened eyelids among the
fairer portion of th9 audienos was tho
rule and not the exception. We think
that a Maoon audionco, while it is re
fined and.discriminating, is. not morbidly
sympathetic, aud these manifestations at
test the power of the actress. Yesterday
thero were many wet eyas in the andienoe
and the drama made a fine impression.
Some of the climaxes are very good. In
others, however, there seems to be some
thing lacking, and the general effect is
somewhat impaired. The play is a fine
creation in many rogards, and will al
ways afford a pleasing performance if
eaoh an actress aa Mrs. Chanfran handles
the leading role.
The plot of the play ia aa follows:
Marie marries Betrand, a journeyman
carpenter, who promises reform from
strong drink and abandonment of bis dis
solute associate?, but gets intoxicated on
his wedding day. A year paeses, and an
infant bleBseB the little household. By a
powerful appeal, Betrand again promises
reform. Marie goe3 forth to procare him
work; in the meantime Remy, an old
friend, lsade Betrand from hia resolu
tion. Sbo then leaves him and places
her babe in an orphan asylum. A young
Doctor Appiani hae been attending the
infant of the Countes3 ot Basaieres, a
foster-sister of Marie, and is promised
her hand if he saves its life. It dies.
The infant of Mario iB brought from the
asylum and substituted by the doctor
Marie, who relates her story to the Coun
tess, discovers her infant and ia immedi
ately pronounced mad by Appiani. Be-
trand reforms, Marie is released from, the
asylum, Appiani is overthrown, and the
curtain falls on "a happy and reunited
couple.
The story ia not without ite moral.
Mrs. Chanfrau is a lady of magnificent
stage presence, with a very handsome
face in repose. Ia tho delineation of the
emotions ehe has had no superior on the
Ralston Hall boards this season, and she
is certainly a great omoiional actress.
Her support is good, but the play haa
really bat one part and the remaining
characters fill np the cast.
The LiyebfooXi cotton mahxet stiffen
ed a little yesterday with an advance of a
sixteenth on spots, ao-called. The four
o’clock Liverpool quotations were deliv
ered at this office at 2 p. m., gaining two
hoars on meridian time.
The cotton world is modifying its fig
ures aa to the magnitude of the incoming
crop, and generally settling down to the
opinion that it will not exoeed the yield
of laat year much, if at all. Give the
planters last year’s prices and we should
reach five million bales; but even that
would show a supply about half a million
bales short. •**'
young oommedienne, who won so many
frienda on her first appearance in this
oity last season, gtaeed tbe boards of our
theatre laat evening as “Maud Muller” in
the charming play of. that name. The
entire performance was most admirable,
and a more tborongbly delighted audi
ence has rarely been seen within the walls
onr old "Drary.” Miss Rigers is, be
yond donbt, one of the most talented
yonng oommediennes on tbe stage.
Her naturalness, Bimplioity of manner,
and evident appreciation of the char
acter ehe assumes,, stamps her as an
aotress of genuine merit, and we predict
for her a pcsition in the highest rank of
the profesaien ehe has chosen, and which
she so eminently adorns. Her persona
tion of "Maud Muller,” from the time
she makes her appearanco as tbe light
hearted, simple-minded, loving country
maiden, until the reconciliation with her
husband in the forest of Hemlock, was
artistic, charming and perfect. Sne won
all hearts by her winsome ways and her
faithful portraiture, and gained the ap
plause of the admiring audienoe, beiog
compelled to appear before the curtain at
the end of the eecona and third acta.
Mr. Frank E. Aiken, a thorough actor,
sustained the character of ‘ Judge Wayne”
in a style that did credit to his reputation
as an able and talented artist. Miss
Florence Noble represented the proud
sister "Theodora Wayne” to perfection,
while the “Nate Harpin’’ of Mr. Archie
Boyd could not have bsen better render
ed. Miss Annie Mortimer, as “Hester
Beane,” made an excellent impression,
and tho entire oast was very good, the
support being better than on the appear
ance of Miss Rogers last season.

A Col* Snaf.—A norther set in on
Saturday, and the merenry fell rapidly,
giving the promise of a cold snap for Son-
day morning. To what extent that prom-
iso ia made good we shall know by sun- -
rise. A little cold weather is neaded J to
check tho impetuous progress of shade
and fruit trees towards premature ver- -
dure; but we trust nature will “dra’ it
mild.”
A Great Disappointment. — The
young folks were sadly grieved at the
pluvial visitation which prevented the
rendering of Mother Gscse’s melodies at
Ralston Hall Friday night. Bat there
was no alternative, unlest the old lady
had seen fit to swim to the place of ren
dezvous, Ani why did she not ? When
was it ever too wet before for a goose to
perform ? And sarely her goslings from
ell parts of tbe city would have followed
suit and paddled up to time. But “bet
ter luck” on the next occasion, and wo
trnst on eome balmy eve not far distant
this charming entertainment will como
off, and be graced by all the little folks
and grown people of the community..
The object sought to be accomplished is
most commendable, and we wish the old
lady unbounded success.
THE NATIONAL COMPLAINT.
Dyspepsia is the national complaint.
Almost every other man or woman yon
meet has ir, and the result i3 that the
number of pseudo-remedies for it is as
numerous as Pharioh’d host. They aro
for tho most part worthless. This is,
however, a searching eradioant of this
distressing and obdurate malady, one
whose genuine merits long since raised it
to a foremost place among the staple
medicines of America. Hostctter’s Stom
ach fitters extirpates dyspepaia with
greater certainty and promptitude than
any known remedy, and is a most genial
invigorant, appetizer and aid to secretion.
-These ars not empty assertions, as thou
sands of our countrymen aud women who
have experienced its effects aro aware,
but are backed up by irrefragable proofs

The tragedy of Macbeth was presented
last evening, at Ralston Hall, by Mrs.
Caanfraa, supported by Mr.' S. K. Ches
ter and Mr. Tayleure’s company. The
play had not been presented to a Macon
audience in several years, the laat time
by Madame Janauschek. The perform
ance was certainly one of no mean merit, _
aud ia the two leading roles it is but sol- repeatedly laid before the public. The
s Bitters also promote a regular habit of
dom that both are sustained m the same
rendition with bo much decided ability.
Mrs. Chanfran as Lady Macbeth waa of
course the central fight, and brightly did
her genins shine forth laBt evening.
The strong overruling ambition
of a woman who wonld even
do murder to compass the ob-
jeot of her desires was fault
lessly presented. In the scenes where
Dnncan was murdered she manifested
talents which even after seeing the
lady a number of impersonations
one would hardly have thought ehe
isossed; and then after the deed was
committed, when the bloody fruit which
was so eagerly plucked had turned to
body and give a healthful stimulus to tho
urinary organs.
AN ELEGANT PREPARATION
Design'd to meet the public want for a

found in Fuker’s Hair Balsam. It acts like
magic, commencing at the very roots, re

faded hair to its original youthful color and
beauty. Falling hair is immediately checked
by its nee, and it produce* a growth cf beau
tiful young hair, eoft, glossy and luxuriant,
that surprises everyone. These properties
added to its exquieite perfume and purity of
composition, render it the growing favorite
of the toilet table everywhere. Bny a bottle

lowed was portrayed with subtlety, power
and expression. In tho last scene, when
IB h«r sleep the unhappy queen seeks to
wash out tho "damned spots” her acting
was artistic and powexfol.
Mrs. Chanfrau sustained the entiro
character most admirably.
The Macbeth of Mr. Cheater wsa a
very fine piece of aoting. He filled the
role with muoh ability. His reading is
good, and his stage aoting, at times, very
fine. He had a oonoeption of the charac
ter natural and true to tho lines. Proba
bly his best aoting waa dona in the solil
oquy to the sir drawn dagger, after he
had murdered the king, and whan Ban-
q«o’a ghost appears at the banquet.
Macdnff, by Mr.F. D. AUen;andBarquo,
by Mr. Archie Cowper, deserve mention.
The support was uniformly good aud the
performance passed off ia a spirited and
very satisfactory manner.
Tho stage effect of thnnder and light
ning, bngleo and drums, tho witch

ance.
The audienoe was not very large, ow
