The following from anexchangethrows
additional light nppp this anbjeot: . . .
The duty on imported ateel rails, levied
by the' tariff is exorbitant. It goes be
yond protection and becomes prohibitive.
There were no eteel rails imported in 1878,
none the year before, and , OBly ?6,733
worth in 1876. This is becauso the duty
is about 180 per cent, oh the first cost of
thaiails in England. Sfr Edward Wktkin
less than *22 a ton. They dan be .lard
down in New York, therefore, lees duty,
for about *27. but the duty is H cents
per pound, or exactly *28 for a. full ton,
making the w-' of English rails in New
York |65 a t-u. The American rails are
gelling,it.is t> ported,for *42 a ton,making
them *13 cheaper than the English m
th'# market. Jf Mr. Vanderbilt bought
at Eng-ish market prices and for uee in
this country, his 12,000 ions of English
steel rails must have eost him $156,000
more than American raila would have cost
—a pretty heavy price to pay for a guaran
tee. There ia another side to the question,
one whioh helps to explain what Mr. Van
derbilt has done. In 1878 we produced
600,000 tons of eteel rails. These the rail
road companies have had to buy at the
railmakera’ prices, *42 a ton, whereas
but for the dnties on rails laid by the
tanff—duties which pay no revenue to
the government—they oould be bought
lor *27 to *30 a ton. This difference of
*15 a ton represents the bonus which our
people are forced to pay to the American
Bessemer steelmakers to ‘'protect" them
from British competition. Oa last jear a'
consumption of rails this bonus amounted
to *9,000,000. On tbe 2,000,000 tons
Uied a the past four years it amounted
to *30,006,000. It is estimated that io
the next six or eight years the railroad
companies .will wish to lay -60.000 miles
g\t track iritb fchcoo *oi|», wmob, «*• HO
tons to the mile, would require fire and
a h.lf million tons, aad v.ould extort a
bonus of *82,600.000 from the transpor
tation lines, and whioh must be an ele
ment In the charge whioh they make the
pnblio for Berrios.
The above speaks volumes agaiiut our
ruinous system of “protection.

That UMtarred Negro gx#dua
Advloes by telegtapn from Topeka,
Kansas,dated April 2lst, Btate thata large
meeting had been held over whioh Gov
ernor St. John presided “to oonslder
what shall ba done with the oolored-iou
migrants from the South.”
Resolutions were adopted asking citi
zens -to contribute to keep snoh freed'
men as come from Bundling and to trans
port them toiodflities vfHer^ttby may
enjoy their rights and privileges with ell
ether oitizscs, and requesting the Chair
man to appoint a general freedmen’s oom-
mittee, of whioh the Governor shall be
ohairman, to reoeive such contributions
of food, money, eto, as charitable peo
ple in all paitB of the country shill send
for dlstribn'.ion by said committee, or its
agents, as Ihe occasion requires, and this
committee shall have authority to devise
■uoh other means as the urgency of the
oocaBion and needs of these people sbal
demand. The Governor, to-day appoint"
ad an Executive Committee, and a State
Commit tsa will fee appointed Thursday.
A dispatch of the same date from
Vicksburg announces that “arrangements
are being made for the accommodation of
the Labor Convention of tbe Mississippi
Valley, which meets here on the Cth of
May. Colonel Mailer, colored, of Carroll
parish,La., new attending the colored con
vection in New Orleans, has given notise
that he will attend with a large delega
tion from the river parishes of that State.
The object of the convention is to take
steps to stop the emigration of colored
laborers to Kansas.”
So it will be seen that the best inform
ed of the colored people of Lonisiana are
convinced of the folly of the precipitate
fexodu3 of their people under the lead or
interested parties and politicians, and are
California Constitutional Elec*
uon.
The new constitution which has been
drafted for California will be submitted
to a vote of the people oa the 7th of May
It is a lengthy document, containing
23.000 words, against 10,000 is the old.
The opinion to.gaining grdedd that the
vote on ratification will ba very close,
with some possibility of its defeat.
A San Francisco correspondent writes
to the Baltimore Sun that the reforms
sought to be inaugurated are land mo
nopoly, Chinese labor competition, rail
way rule, stock gambling, politicaLcor-
rnpiioo, official robbery, unequal taxes,
impoverishing industry, . by .savings
banks, exolading industry from feduca-
nambers when strategy fails. The warlike
qualities of the barbarians have evidently
be-a underestimated by the home au
thorities and too much reliance placed
in th* gallantry and soldierly bearing of
the troops sent to the seat of war. The
•War Department of the Eagli.-h Govern-
lutot has dispatched but a few thousand
troops to the Zulu country, and the bonsa
qcecces are Several defeats and muoh
loss. Garrisons have been cat off and
locked np in isolated forts, and pat In
jeopardy of their exiatense, while on one
or two occasions whole regiments have
been annihilated and detachment# crip
pled. The native strategy has baffled,
too, the sklU of fhe English veterans, and
the telegrams now before us intimate that
the foroes have been surprised again by
the natives. Theremedy whioh suggests
itself is to hurry forward reinforcements
•a rapidly as practicable, place in the
hostile country a force large enough to
either awe the rebellions ZqIus into aub-
i-ctioa, or, failing in this, to be able by a
quick, decided blow to cnforco it. If
tool such course equally summary;
effective and- decided to not followed,
then may“the home bureux continue to
look-for reports like Those contained in
our (toon telegrams, and many a gallant
English soldier must fall on the sands of
South Africa, and many an officer be
numbered with the unreturning brave.
It does se«m that the present aacrifl^e ia
too great for the results reached.
Rsmomus Ihtxi-lkjbkc*.—The revi
sed book of disetpline of th# Presbyterian
church as passed upon twiee by the Gen
eral Assembly and sent down to the. Pres
byteries for ratification or rejection seems
tn a fair way to be adopted. Tbe Pres
bytery of Mississippi has adopted the
new bock by a majority of two thirds.
The vote of the Louisville Presbyury
stood 23 ayes to 2 negatives. The Cen
tral Mississippi Presbytery punned the
same course by a rote of twenty to six.
The Presbytery of Maeon also at its re*
cent session in Outhbert adopted the re
vised book almost unseimouMy.
The New Orleans Sonthumtem Pros-
byterion, whioh by the way, is one of the
b~*t edited and most interesting religious
journals in the Union, says: “It Is ex
pected that tbe majority of the Presby
teries will acoept it. It ts to be nottoed
i bat the minorities voting against it, in
those Presbyteries which have acted, are
comparatively small.”

doubt. Indeed, hero is a confirmation of
the fact as strong as “holy writ,” which
we find in a telegram to the Nashville
American, strange to say, bearing the
identical date of the two above oommuni-
cations, viz., April2lst. It is sunt from
New Orleans and gives an account of the
Radical colored convention sitting in that
city. The dispatch eaya the committee
on business reported:
After reading tbe report, Ruby read a
resolution adopting tho report and spoke
at >> we length. He explained the facts
con hined in the report, and suggested
organised And sy&icm&tio emigration# So
explained that tbs reasons for the tnrbn-
lence in the convention was the presence
of politicians who interfered with Ihe pro
ceedings. The oolored men, last year,
produced *85,000.000 of wealth, and
sow it is proposed to let the white man
satoe sugar, cotton and rice. It was an
organized movement of colonists. The
negro exodus means the low of thirty-
five membsrs of Oongress and the pres
ent Democratic majority. The report
wu adopted—Ruby, here introduced Mr.
Tarke, an agent for the Honduras Immi
gration Society, who urged colored men
to eeek that region as one of the most
congenial climateqbalheir temperament
The rabjeot of emigration jo Honduras
-was referred to the Committee on Mi-
grstion. *
Roby moved, when tbe convention ad
journed, it should adjourn singing “John
ffinnrn’s body ties.” It was eo ordered,
and when tbe boor for adjournment-tin?
Sit arrived, three verses of this song
were snog, and the artembly dispersed.
This shows how ranch ut biart they bed
the true interests of t^ie deluded ,ibhE
grant. What has John Brown’s ghost to
do with a freedman’s crop, or the prob-
lam of bow to fill his atomaob ? It to ij^p
symbol of war, bloodshed and aoarohy—
the diabolical shibboleth naed to mass
every element of ignoranoe and fanati
cism In favor cf the wioked designs of in
nncrupnlous party. Surely the poor ne
gro has suffered enough already by such
nefarious praotioes to learn wisdom.
Even an ignorant man cannot be, fooled
always. It will not be long; lodged, the
renegade msreb is even new beginning,
when the poor negroes, having _*pent
their all, and disgusted with the ctiwete
hard work and the swindling treatment to
which they have been subjected, will sigh
more than did the Isratiites of. old, for
the fleah pots of Egyp.. for the genial
suua and diluvial ootton and rice fields of
their old home. But they had be#t pick
op th*ir duds and harry beck, for. a tele
gram states that the “Florida negroes
are said to be emigrating to Louisiana to

We trust onr intelligent oolored citizens
will proceed at onoe to open the syes of
theia brethren to the wretched fate that
awaits them it they remove 4o the eold
and inhospitable region of Kansas. Hare,
they have all the civil liberty aad rights
that can be enjoyed anywhere under th#

State generally. One oauae or this the
writer thinks, to that the debtors whose

fied in can it passes to pay up or stand

will ba exceedingly lively, and if the ob

tae|adoption of the new Constitution moat
heagtily do .-we wish It success. Bnt how

Concert Last Eveulnv.
The concert last evening at Masonio
Temple by the pupils of Mrs. Link and
Mrs. Hunt was a very pleasant affair,
and one which demonstrated the thor-
ongkncea ot the instruction imparted by
these two accomplished musicians. The
programme was long and varied, the
pieces in the first part being especially
short and appropriate. A. chorus, “All
by the Shady Greenwood Tree,” by the
class opened the entertainment.
An instrumental duet, “Come into the
Garden Maud,” by Paul and Minnie
Biackshear, two tiny little performers,
wsb rapturously applauded.
Miss Susie Jchan played with remark
able skill “The Convent Bell March.”
Miss Blanche Hall:executed the Kirs
Waltz, with violin accompaniament, very
nicely indeed.
“Fretty Little Blonde Waltz,” by Prof.

Petition of . Mrs. Margaret. Smith, to
Par Cumberland Island,
East evening a very pleasant party left
the city via the Cumberland route for the
favorite resort on the ooast for Macomtes
—Cumberland Island. The party will
go immediately to High Point, on tbs
Island, and will spend a week or ten day#
in the enjoyment of the pleasures to be
found 1 along the coaet at this season of
the year.
Th# following ladies sad gentlemen
composed the party: Mr. J. M. Ogden
and two sons, Miss Ogden, Mis* Carrie
Stewart, Miss Kate Tinsley, Miss Lilian
Roberts, Miss Kate Ross, Mr. A. R.
Tinsley, Mr. and Mrs. L. Ripley, Mrs.
Peter Solomon, Mr. J. A. Pugh. Mr. W.
*G. Solomon and Rev. Mr. GUzebrook.
One or two parties have already visited
Cumberland Island this season, and many
others will follow.
Tot*’.——
After the shooting, the soldiers return*
ed to the dance, and to the s:ra<ns of
Kessler’s orebestra mingled in the “giddy
mtzes” with their oivilian friends. A
feature of the day was a stag quadrille, in
which only members of tho company par
ticipated, followed by a stsg waltz.
The ptizss were delivered on tbe plat
form by Rev. Otis A. Glaxsbrcok, chap.-
lain of the company, who appeared in
full uniform.
The first prize was awarded to Captain
W. W. Carnes, whose Ecore stood highest.
The presentation speech was terse to
tbe extreme aud one of the handsomest
silver goblets ever brought to Macon
was placed in Captain Carnes’ hands.
Captain Carnes on its reception replied
that he never advocated or approved of
tbe commissioned officers of theoompany
tsking part in the target practice; there
they did not nse tbe weapons they won,
and wera furthermore placed io danger of
reoeiving the leather medal. He had
won and worn with, pride a company
medal. His objections bad then been
overruled, and he was compelled to take
it; butiu the present instanoo he placed
the prize back in the hands of tho com
pany, declining to take it for the reasons
s'ated.
This deoision was received with great
applause, and three cheers were lustily
given followed by tbe inevitable “tiger.”
The second przi was awarded to Pri
vate G. F. Cornell, in a few graceful sen
tences, snd tbe handsome cake received
by him ia a unique and appropriate re
joinder.
The dinner prepare d by the lady friends
of the company was most sumptuous
and superb. The quality was indeed ex
cellent and the quantity boundless. Full
justice was done it by the crowd.
Danoiug consumed the intervening
hoar# and not a moment was there but
seemed to be winged.
’A pleasant episode was the presence of
a charming party of young ladies and
gentlemen from HawkinBVillo, to whom
invitations had been extended, and the
belles and beaux of both cities became
mutually acquainted.
As tbs falling sunbeams of the evening
fell aslant the scene, tbe tap of tbe drum
again called the aoldtors under arms, and
the exourslontets returned to the oily de
lighted with the dsy, satisfied with its
pleasures and reckoning the anniversary
as one of the most pleasantly celebrated
in years, and a success of the most de
cided character.
