Ip? Iffcfcklf? uttfe 3atmt$l ^ Msi&sumgjM:. by telegraph Loudon, February 12.—A Pans dis- e cli says: “The Soir announces that neral Debars, commander of the bix- teenth Brigade of German infantp', has been appointed chief ef staffto the fifteenth army corps, stationed at Strasburg, and adds: The foregoing is very significant, as General Debars is intimately acquainted with the French army. TIic announcement oi tne donation to Ireland from Baroness Burdett Coutts, is exaggerated. Only five thousand pounds were given, with the promise of other beneficial acts of relief, when necessary. rAKis,, February 12.—An official state ment shows the total expenses and loss of resources to France, arising from the Franco-German war, were 1.1,939,000,000 francs. Washington, February 12.—In the Senate Mr. Saunders introduced a bill to abolish all duties on importation of salt. Mr. Garland introduced a bill to extend the time for the completion of the Texas and Pacific railroad. The Vice President laid before the Sen ate a communication from several mem bers of the minority of the Louisiana Leg islature in regard to the representation of that State in the United States Senate, Printed and referred. Mr. Davis, ol West Virginia, said if the Senator from Georgia, (Mr. Gordon,) had been in his seat to-day, he, (Davis,) would have moved "to take up the motion to re consider the vote appointing a special committee on the inter-oceanic canal. The delay on this subject was not caused by him or his motion to reconsider. He was and had been ready to reconsider the matter at any moment. The Senate proceeded to consider the calendar. In the House, Mr. Stephens of Georgia, chairman of the Committee on Coinage, Weights and Measures, reported back five bills relative to the metric system of coin age. Printed and referred to the Com mittee of the Whole. The five hills provide as follows: first, for the coinage of a metric gold coin to be called a “stella,” the value of four dol lars; the second for the coinage of a go- loid metric dollar, two dollars and frac tions of a dollar, and also the coinage of a gold double, eagle and half eagle, all of standard value; third, for the mintage of ingots of metric gold alloy. Its de posit in the treasury and the issue of cer tificates therefor; the fourth, the making of ingots of fine gold and ingots of fine silver of the value of one hundred dol lars each for exportation, manufactures, etc.; the fifth for the coinage of silver dol lars and fractions thereof of full standard value upon the metric system; also a joint resolution authorizing the Secretary to furnish the States for the use of agricul tural colleges, one set of standard weights and measures. Passed. Richmond, Va., February 12.—The Irish Relief Society has collected $3,$88 which will be sent to the Most Rev. Arch bishop McCabe and Most Rev. Aichbish- op French, of Dublin, to be distributed without regard to creed. Washington, February 12.—The House Committee of Ways and Means took up the refunding question this morn ing, for final action. The first vote taken was upon the rate of interest. This was decided in favor of three and a half per cent, by a vote of eleven to two. The a uestion of time was then settled by the ecisive vote of twelve to one in favor of a 20-40 bond. Interest on these bonds is to be paid quarterly, and they are to be used in funding fives and sixes, amount ing to about $500,000,000. The Commit tee decided also to recommend that au thority be given the Secretary of the Treasury to issue two hundred million dollars of four per cent, treasury notes, re deemable at pleasure, to assist the reduc tion of the annual interest,burden, in the manner proposed by Representative Kelly. The President sent the following nomi nations to the Senate to-day: George Toy, to be Collector of Customs at Cherry stone, Virginia; John Sneed, to be Post-, master at Huntsville, and Henry O’Maher, to be Postmaster at Donaldsonville, Ga. Washington, February 12.—The New York Times this morning publishes the private correspondence between Senator Gordon and Representative Stephens with reference to the personal misunder standing which arose between them at the recent meeting of the Senate Census Committee. The letters, it is understood, were furnished to the Times by Represen tative Stephens, Senator Gordon having refused to give them to the press on the ground that they related to purely pri vate matter. Mr. Gordon in his letter expresses regret that under extreme provo cation he used harsh and angry words to Mr. Stephens, but says the latter had done him great injustice, both in private con versations and in a statement made before the committee, that he (Gordon) favored ex-marslial Smylhe for the office of super visor in the first census district of Geor gia. Mr. Stephens, in reply, accepts Mr. Gordon’s apology, but refuses to admit that there was any provocation on Ids part for Mr. Gordon’s words. He says he meant nothing offensive to General Gor don in repeating what he had heard about letters favoring the appointment of Major Smytlic. The only object of his remark before the committee was to show that if the objectionable words in Simmons’ let ter of application, were taken in their proper connection, they were not subject to the construction which General Gordon placed upon them. The nouse Committee on Education and Labor decided to-day to report ad versely on Representative Thompson’s bill, “providing for the distribution of the fund from the unclaimed pay and bounty of colored soldiers for the education of the colored race.” This action is based upon information furnished the commit tee that the fund barely amounts to two hundred thousand dollars, and is being constantly drawn upon by claimants. The Senate Commerce Committee took up to-day the House bill, making a spe- better army than that army of the Forty 1 - Fourth Congress — without regard to where they came from—in the interest of economy. [Applause on the Democratic side. Mr. Goode, of Virginia, reminded Mr Conger that we now lived under the con stitution of the United States, which al lowed every House’to fix the rules for its own proceedings. He thought rule 120 was a wise and jrist regulation. Mr. Springer, of Illinois, pointed out that while that eminent Republican, Mr. Garfield, was at the head of the Appropri ation Committee, 150 sections of legis lation had been passed v upon the Appro priation Bill. He was in favor ef legisla tion in appropriation bills. It had saved millions of dollars to the people, and if the house held on to it, it would save mil lions more. Mr. White, of Pennsylvania, then with drew his amendment, and Mr. Speer, of Georgia, offered one to strike out the pro vision that allows legislation on appropri ation bills, if in the direction of retrench ment, and insert the clause, “that it shall be in order to strike out any sum of mon ey and insert a Jess sum.” He then spoke in favor of his amendment, saying that the failure of appropriation bills meant an archy and revolution, and the House should adopt such rules as would prevent their failure to pass on account of politi cal riders. Mr. Hawley, of Connecticut read quo tations to show that in twenty-five out of thirty-eight States, legislation on appro priation bills was prohibited by State con stitutions. Mr. Blount, of Geoigia, thought the government would never perish in the way Ins colleague, Mr. Speer, feared. He opposed the amendment. Mr.Mills, of Texas, and Mr. Whitthouse, of Tennessee, spoke in favor of the amendment. Mr. McMahon, of Ohio, appealed to his party friends not to give up rule 120. It would be giving up the very standard they had raised. Mr. Warner, of Ohio, opposed an amendment to Mr. Speer’s amendment, which would make clause threj -of the rule read as follows: no appropriation shall be reported in any general appropiation bill, or be in order as an amendment thereto for any expenditure not previously authorized by law, unless in continuation ofthe appropriation for such public works as are already in progress, nor shall any provision in any such bill or amendment thereto be in order, except that it shall be in order to reduce the amounts of money provided for by the existing law, and cov ered by the bill, and to that extent only to change the law. Mr. Warner’s amend ment was agreed to by a vote of 124 to 29. Pending the consideration of Mr. Speer’s amendment the House adjourned. In the Senate the following bills were introduced and referred: By Mr. Ransom, for the erection of a f iublic building at Asheville, North Caro- ina. By Mr. Garland, providing that the Texas and Pacific Railway Company, organized under the act of March 3,1801, shall have.ten years additional time to complete a continuous line of railway from Marshall, Texas, to the Pacific Ocean, provided, however, that nothing herein contained shall be construed as authorizing the grant of any additional lands or subsidy of any kind by the gov ernment. By Mr. Blaine, endowing the Lowery Industrial Academy in Alabama, and au thorizing the acceptance of a donation of buildings and lands in its aid. By Mr. Saunders, abolishing all import duties on salt. Mr. McDonald resumed his remarks in favor of the bill for the ascertainment of the amount of land located on the military warrant for the payment of five per cent, ofits value to the several States named. He argued that all public lands within said States, which, by the terms of their acts of admission, were exempted from State taxation for five years from sale, and that five per cent, on these was due the State. He held that the location on military scrip, was a sale within the meaning of the acts referred to, since the lands were given as a bonus to those who served the government, in the place of an equivalent cash payment. Washington, Februaiy 32.—In exec utive session to-day, the Senate confirmed the following nominations for Census Su pervisors : Norman W. Trezevant, Third, and H. H. De A. Kennedy, Fourth Dis trict of Louisiana. The following like nominations were rejected: Harrison Reed, First Florida District of Florida; Win. J. Patton, Second District of Arkansas. The following nominations were confirmed: George 'Walker, of New York, Consul General at Paris; Mrs. E. C. Bainbridge, Postmistress Fortress Monroe, Virginia. Dublin, February 12.—The Mansion House Relief Committee has received two thousand pounds from Brisbane, Austra lia, and five hundred fram Bombay. The fund now amounts to 55,500 pounds, of which 24,600 pounds have been distribu ted. Chicago, February 12.—The Imperial Mills elevator of Douglas & Stewart, at the comer of Sixteenth and Dearborn streets,was blown down this morning and one linndred and twenty-three thousand bushels of wheat which it contained spilled on the ground. The building was one hundred feet high and one hundred and ten by sixty feet in extent with a ca pacity of two hundred thousand bushels. The mill adjoining was also badly dam aged. The loss on the elevator and con tents is $155,090, on the mill $50,000. There is no insurance covering this kind of accident. Washington, February 12.—Before the Senate Exodus Committee to-day Mr. East, of Indianapolis, produced statement written by him, and signed by two colored emigrants, to the effect that they were induced to come to Indiana by represen tations made by Perry and Williams, that work was plenty and wages high, _ land cheap, etc. Perrv said no Democratic ne groes were wanted—none but strong- hearted Republicans, because the Demo crats were misgoverning Indiana. Mr. East testified that there is no demand for labor in Indiana. The condition ofthe em igrants is pitiable. General L. D. Man- son, a prominent Indiana Democrat, testi fied that there was room for more capital and labor in Indiana, but not for pauper labor. San FuancIsco, February 12.—S. H. Brummel, editor of the Enterprise, was shot and fatally wounded at Hollister, California, to-day, by G. W. Carlton, edi tor of the Telegraph. Brummel had been- called horse thief in Carlton’s paper, and Carlton, upon being called to account by Brummel to-day, drew a pistol and shot the latter in the head. St. Louis, February 12.—At a meeting on ’Change to-day, $25,000 in money, 300 barrels of flour and various lots of pork, com, meal, com beef, bread and other articles were contributed to the Mer chants’ Exchange Irish Relief Fund. Twenty-five or thirty committees, repre senting different branches of business, have been appointed and will canvass the city at once. It is believed that a ship load of food and other supplies will be raised in a very short time. Cincinnati, February 12.—The Cath olic Telegraph, the official organ of the Diocese, announces this morning that an official letter from the Prefect of Propa ganda to Cardinal Simeoni, brings infor mation that Right Rev. W. H. Elder has been appointed coadjutor of the Arch bishop of Cincinnati, with right of suc cession. In a private letter to Archbishop Purcell the appointee intimates his inten tion to accept the appointment. London, February 10.—A Constantino ple'dispatch reports that during a fete, a barrack three stories high, near that city, collapsed. Two hundred soldiers were killed and three hundred wounded. A crying baby is a bore to the whole neighborhood and the parents should be forced to keep Dr. Bull’s Baby Syrup handy. Trice 25 cents. —A Chinaman has lately compared Carlyle with Confucius, and finds not only that their birthdays are the same, and that they did not say a great many of to vote for that rule, regardless of their the same tiling, but that Carlyle is, in previous views and in opposition to the 1 fact nother ava tarof the great Kung- action ofibeir best and wisest men, was llis «.,. cro worship” and the greatest triumph a Northern man ever i futzc > an “ tl:at “ s 1,cro w ° renip anu gained in the way of leading an army of! liis “everlasting! ea_ are only rejerbera- GE0BGIA PRESS. George Jackson, colored, has been sentenced to be hung in Paulding county on the 26th of March. Dr. P. H. Philpot will hereafter as sist In the editorial management of the Talbotton Standard. Municipal matters so crowd upon his Honor, Mayor Mum- ford, as to make this necessary. The report that the Ed Cox case will be taken from the Supreme Court of Georgia, to the Supreme Court of the United States, is regarded as highly im probable. Griffin is in the midst of its prepara tions for a grand military fair. The Warrenton Clipper has entered upon its seventeenth volume. We wish it mucli success. Two darkies in Glascock county jail attempted to burn out by setting fire to the jail in their cell, and narrowly es caped burning themselves out of exist ence. The oat and wheat crop around Swainsboro never looked better. Mr. R. L. Paschal had an eight hun dred dollar bam and stable burned by an incendiary near Thomson early this week. A number of pigs were frozen to death during ;he cold spell in Hancock county. Americus had the “Bostqp Dip” and “Toodles” this week. The casts were good. Judge C. L. Battle and Miss Emma Battle were thrown from a buggy last week and painfully but not fatally in jured, in Schley county. An old darkey, George Floyd, who was over a hundred years of age, was burned to death on Mr. G. E. Clarke’s place in Sumter county. He was certainly old enough to keep out of the fire. There is a considerable amount of sickness about Irwinton. The Irwinton Southerner and Appeal announces the death of Madam Rumor. There is certainly some mistake, as the old lady was in the city yesterday, and very active, too, for one of her age. This is the season when the wonderful hog creeps all over our country ex changes. Mb. J. F. Hatfield, near Irwinton, had his smoke house burglarized of five hundred pounds of meat. “Fence or no fence,” is being discussed in lower Twiggs. Dan Bbigady, colored, is to be hung in Thomasville on the 12th of March, privately. A reckless negro driver ran over little colored boy in Savannah and the Cial deficiency appropriation (in advance ofthe general river and harbor bill), for the improvement of Muscle Shoals, in Al- abame river. Oral argument in advocacy of a favorable action upon the bill was made by the Alabama Senators. No ac tlon, however, was taken upon it to-day. New York, February 12.—A London special to the Herald states on the author ity of private dispatches from Rome, that no doubt whatever remains of the recep tion of Rev. Arthur Wagner, of Brighton, (ritualist) into the Church of Rome. Mr. Wagner’s conversion, it is said, marks the beginning of the long impending and carefully prepared movement, which may ere long bring most of the ritualistic An glican clergy over to Roman Catholicism. London, February 12.—A dispatch from Teheran to Reuter’s telegram com pany says it is rumored that the govern ment will shortly propose the appoint ment of a European commission for the settlement of Persia’s northeastern and Attick frontier. It is also reported that hi the coming spring Persia will dispatch a force to cccupy Afghanistan, and event ually Herat, and that England is fully in formed of these intentions, and has ac cepted Persia’s proposals and conditions. Washington, February 12. — The House resumed the consideration of the bill relating to the removal of cases from State to Federal courts. After a short de bate, the morning hour expired and the bill went over without action. The House then went into committee of the whole on the revision of the rules. Mr. White, of Pennsylvania, offered an amend ment to the twenty-first rule, to provide that no legislation shall be attached to appropriation bills by the Appropriation Committee. This led to an animated po litical debate. Mr. Conger, of Michigan, accused the Southern representatives of inconsistency in voting for the present Rule 120, which permits legislation in ap propriation bills, inasmuch as the consti tution of the late Southern Confederacy { irohibited the incorporation of legislation n such bills. The success of the present Speaker in inducing his Southern friends boy will probably die. A strange disease, similar somewhat to meningetis, prevails in Elbert county. It is very fatal. Rust has attacked the wheat and oats in South Geoigia. An eighteen year old white boy in Jas per county is legally married to a white woman 71 years of age. License to sell liquor in Thomson lias expired, and no more will, for the present, be issued, Southerner and Appeal: The grand jury of the January term of Laurens Superior Court recommends that jurors and bailiffs of that county be paid two dollars per day during 1SS0. According to the Rising Fawn (Dade county) Gazette, the iron furnace of that place is doing well, making about fifty tons of pig metal per day. This is said to be one of the best iron furnaces in the South. Giuffin News: We were shown yes terday a large specimen of rose quartz, found near Thomaston, in the center of which was lodged a quantity of water. By turning the quartz around the water seems to move in a groove or hollow, af ter the manner of the spirit level. How did the Water get in there? Islunaelite: There is no regular fee charged by ministers for marrying a coup le, but they are generally paid from $10 to $25, sometimes $50. (Fifty is what we intend paying.) But an exchange wants to know what a notary public should have for making a couple “solid for life.” In much charity we say $5 and cost, or fifteen days on the chain gang. Sumter Republican: Mr. J. D. Brown, of Sumter county, is thirty-five years old, and has a daughter nine years of age who has seen more birthdays than he has. On the 29th of this month, however, he will S et even with her, as he will then cele- rate his ninth birthday. He was bom February 29, 1844. Arlington Advance: The ring of the workman’s hammer can be heard on every side of our little town. Surely Ar lington is rapidly improving. Mechani cal labor is getting scarce, and the mills nearest town are unable to fill all orders sent them for lumber. Our citizens are far from being asleep, all are awake to the interests of their town, and appear to be infused with new life and energy as the indications of prosperity become more promising. Bcbxa Vista Argus: We have been in formed of a most daring attempt to assas sinate a peaceful and law-abiding citizen. Last Sunday night week, Mr. Tom De vane, of Schley county, who lives about five miles this side of Ellaville, on the mail route, was returning home from a visit to Hon. T. F. Rainey’s. While rid ing along towards home some unknown person suddenly stopped his horse, and declaring his intention to kill him, the unknown would-be-assassin made a stab at his victim’s heart, and ran. Mr. D. threw up his arm to ward off the blow, and his coat received a long cut. The presumption is that the would-be-assassin- ater thought he had killed his victim, be-' came frightened and ran. This is a most daring attempt at assassination under cover of darkness, and merits the penalty of the Jaw. Berrien county News: Mr. Thomas Paulk, of this place, owns a cow that has readied the advanced age of twenty years. He keeps her in a close stall and gives her the best of attention. She has grown quite feeble, and the present disa greeable weather is telling on her consti tution. We believe the average of the cow is about twelve years, but we pre sume this cow was not dissipated in her early days. A Dove Breaks a Headlight.—Col umbus Enquirer: On Monday night the engineer of the Columbus bound freight train on the Mobile and Girard Railroad, when within about nine miles of the city, saw a dove flying directly towards the engine. He supposed it passed by, and did not discover the mistake until arriv ing in the city. It was then found the dove had broken the glass of the head light, which is very thick, and lay dead near the light. We would advise all doves to steer clear of headlights of loco motives. Charge Against an Official.— Savannah News: Yesterday morning A. J. Miller, Deputy Collector of Customs at St. Mary’s, was arraigned before United States Commissioner E. C. Wade, on the charge of embezzlement of government funds. The chaige is preferred by Thomas M. Blodgett, the Collector, who has him self been suspended, as onr telegraphic dispatches have noted, and who is now under investigation by the Treasury De partment. Mr. Miller waived examina tion, and gave bond in the sum of five hundred dollars to appear at the April term of the United States Court. Mr. Miller has, since the suspension of Blod gett, been appointed Collector, and is now occupying that position. He returned to St. Mary’s yesterday afternoon. The Augusta News tells how Mr. E. H. Byne, of Jefferson county, says that an Southern Brigadiers.

After he had been there only three days he married a woman named Mary Tompkins, who was pos sessed of property valued at about six hundred dollars, all of which Simmons induced her to sell.- Having done so the unscrupukua groom seized hold upon the money, stole a horse and buggy belong ing to Byne, made his escape into South Carolina, leaving Byne and Bride lonely and desolate—the first minus a horse and baggy and the latter her property.. Byne offers a reward for the capture of the ras cal. STATE GRANGE. An All Xi(bt Session. We are indebted to Mr. Eden Taylor for the following proceedings of the State Grange session held in this city. The du ties of his office as Secretary precluded his sending a synopsis of them earlier. Colonel T. J. Smith, Master ofthe State Grange, by appointment, called the body together at the National Hotel, on the 9th instant. Thirty delegates from different portions of the State were present. Great harmony prevailed thoughout the session, but, owing to the fact that the State Ag ricultural Convention would sit in Cuth- bert the next day, and a large number oj its delegates who were also delegates to the State Grange, passed through to Cuth- bert on the day of the meeting, there was not as large an attendance as would otherwise nave been- The session was prolonged throughout the entire night, however, to give the remaining Agricul tural Convention delegates an opportunity to attend that body. The officers elected for the next two years are: T. J. Smith, M.; J. B. Joni \ O.; T. H. Kimbrough, Sec.;,D. Nichols, S.; W. B. McDaniel, Asst. S.; W. F.'Stark, Chap.; J. S. Lawton, Treas.; E. Taylor, Secty.; Wm. Kaigler, G.K.; Mrs. .T, J. Smith Ceres; Mrs.L. W. Collier-, 1 Pdmcma; Mrs. M. H. Lewis, Flora; Mrs. E. Taylor, L. A. S. Executive Committee—L. F. Living stone, C. T. Zacliry, B. Rainy. ‘ • • The finances of the order were reported in a safe condition, with no outstanding indebtedness. In maay sections ofthe State the con dition ofthe Grange was reported healthy, and the better the Grange became known, the less antagonism there was to it, anti wherever a true, active Grange was exist ing, the more thrifty, useful, and intelli gent was the community, and more prog ressive. A number of new deputies were appoin ted to instruct and reorganize dormant Granges. Resolutions pledging active support to the State Agricultural Department, and commendatory of its efficient Commis sioner, and of thanks to Hon. L. F. Liv ingstone for his untiring and able defense of the department in the Legislature of Georgia, wore unanimously adopted. Resolutions of thanks to the generosity of the railroads of the State in passing delegates to the meeting at half fare were adopted. And special thanks were ex tended to ex-Govemor J. E. Brown, President of the Western and Atlantic Railroad for extending the delegates of this body equal courtesies with those of the State Agricultural Convention, thus win ning the title of Grange benefactor. The Grange enjoyed the hospitality of tlieir hostess, Mrs. Brown, of the Na- ' tonal. Mucli other important business was transacted during the laborious all-night session, which will secure greater inter est in and respect for the agricultural life and the weal of the farm. The Grange adjourned at 5:30 a.m., February 10, to meet in tbe city of Thomasville on the second Tuesday in December, 1880. grain fields and hog pens to our bams and meat houses. With no debts for our provisions and fertilizers, we will need no accommodation credit at two to fire per cent, per month. Thus we be come independent of Shylocks in the person of lien merchants. In this beautiful and so much desired situation we sell all our cotton at our own time, to onr own ■ chosen buy- ere, and will get our own money. But planting on a ruinous credit none of these things can we do, but (hirelings like) be humiliated by task masters. For what are governments established? Can it be for the protection of one class to'the sacrifice .of others,-or -has it been instituted as the medium through which all the peopleareto obtain protection ? A government, to he perpetuated, must have a -high standard of virtue, intelli gence and stability to give it true strength and power as a nation, without which tor nadoes and stonns in politics and disap pointed aspirants for office Will surely test its stability—yes, overthrow It; for our own Government has taught us sad les sons, which are now fresh in the memory of our people. Where does the wealth of a nation come from ? D ocs it spring from productive industry from the labor of such a country? You will find where a govern ment neglects to encourage and protect these it disregards its best interest and its main support; does nothing short of in viting the certain penalty. If- the profits of industry are taken from the producer, and the wages of the laborer inadequate to the maintainance of themselves, as also their families, is not the object of govern ment disappointed and the just rights of the people disregarded; yes, we might ad mit, ’crushed out. Where are the powers of government vested? Are they not in the people. We claim they are an^jheir offi cers are mere servants responsible to tlieir constituents for every act, whether op pressive or wholesome, and if the plant- ng interests have suffered and still suf fering from unjust and oppressive restric tion from unhealthy legislation by the'in fluence of organization of other classes, no blame can be atttached to those engaged in other industries of life for using honora ble as well as legitimate means in pro tecting as well as fostering tlieir peculiar interest. . We claim no great reform was ever, or ever will be, except through or ganization and a united effort, for we are forced to have some medium through which our wrongs can be vindicated and our wants understood and tbe strength of organizatien felt. If this is true, and we so maintain, does not the Grange present the organization as also the medium to the planting inter est through which it can not only speak but claim the assurance with proper and well-directed efforts that practical and good results can be attained. Such, so palpable, staring us in the face, we organ- zed as farmers in the Grange for our pro- Tlie following is the address of Colonel T. J. Smith on opening the ®5te Granga Brothers Georgia State Granges: Conforming to the duties imposed upon us by our fundamental laws, as well as the well-being of our organization, wo have convened here in this, our ninth an nual session, for conference and counsel ing together in the very important inter est we claim to represent, to advance its prosperity, thereby, promoting the best iit- tcrest of tliis, our broad and lovely land. We can but exceedingly regret, and with much sadness, that we are meeting at this time, not witli that enthusiasm that has characterized similar meetings in the. past, and as discreet, prudent and wise coun selors, it becomes our earnest duty, as the representatives of our orgenization, to scrutinize closely our structure and see it all proper appliances have been utilized, looking to its promotion, if not ferret out the causes of the neglect, and supply it immediately. For some cause, we must confess, our oiganization has been languishing in Geor gia, and is now in a state of apathy which ipas paralized a major portion of our mem bership, disqualifying them for work. Seeing this unfortunate state of affairs, it becomes us, representatives of our noble order, to devise plans and means, and that wisely, which will give it new force, new strength, more action and more life, and the first impulse of a true patrons’ heart is that of gratitude to our Maker for the im proved prosperity of our country, and the multitude of blessingsenjoyed throughout our State whilst some sections have been visited with suffering and some even with death. In counseling together, brothers, with honest hearts, united by the strong and faithful tie of agriculture, let us mutually determine, in all sincerity and earnest ness, to labor for the advancement of our order, our country and mankind. Let us prepare well for our work; wash and make clean our hands and hearts of ’ all evil intentions; relieve ourselves of any and all prejudices in the least calculated to promote selfish and individual ends, or in the least to savor of waging an ag gressive warfare against any other legiti mate interest, for we loudly proclaim and acknowledge the broad principle that difference of opinion and interest is no crime, and we have done our part in averting all bitterness of controversy with all other legitimate industries of our country. Brothers, let us inquire why was our order organized ? Was it a ne cessity at all, demanded by the tillers of the soil, or was it a fanatical outburst from hair-brained farmers exhilerated by suc cess in their earnest work, or was it not_ oppression that was grinding into dust our 1 ass of industry which was paralyzing every interest in our land, threatening it with certain and utter ruin ? Such sur roundings with such exacting demands, crippled as our class were by our homes being embarassed by mortgages and debts; our products selling at prices by no means remunerative for our hard and earnest efforts, bad the effect to palsy our avocation and humilitate us in it, caus ing us to question the propriety and wis dom of longer continuing. Justice demands that all business and interest of a legitimate character should be fairly rewarded and protected. Surely no one will question but that our avoca tion is prominently embraced among snch, and that our labors and our energies contributing to the wealth of the country, and its general prosperity, is entitled to a fair and just remuneration, as much as an investment in merchandise, manufactur ing, hanking and railroads. How does money invested in a farm compare with other industries? What the comparative yield in profits in a good many instances, vary considerably, in some worse than nothing; whilst the mortgage and claims upon the investment are drawing from fifteen to thirty per cent, interest, the ten dency of which, of course, is to reduce the land-holders to mere tenants, and the laborers to paupers. It is to be greatly desired that the recent reaction in prices of the products of the soil may prove permanent, though very much will depend upon the course of action pursued by the fanners in planting and making less cotton, and these, with other promi ses, will keep up the present boom, whilst under existing circumstance, producing excessive crops of cotton, we -will ever grow poorer and they will ever grow rich er, who handle it after it is made. Without great change from producing five and half or six millions of bales of cotton, the Southern States are destined to become so many plantations, practically owned by so many hirelings to work them—and yet the very reverse of this fate is far our pow er. Under -the present. policy the next generation of cotton planters will become the poorest, the most powerless and the most contemptible of earth’s inhabitants, while under a wise system of planting prr during cotton only as a surplus, the next generation of cotton growers may become the richest, the most powerful and tbe most respected of earth’s people. Brothers, wnich destiny will we choose ? You may ssk bow this better fate can be secured; the reply to which is a very sim ple proposition—make cotton only as our surplus crop, in this lies the Sam3on-Iock of our future as tillers ofthe soil. Let us make our own fertilizers, thus we become inaependent of the guano dealers. Let ns raise our own supplies, thus we become independent of tne provision merdiant, for we all know the cheapest and safest line of transportation runs from our owe til patient, let us prescribe and administer i tition and pray your honorable body that tection and mutual benefit, for wise and beneficent purposes, and this effort sprang our order into existence, seeming as if by magic arousing naturally the surprise and Suspicion —u- — j—>—j-g. -r -n classes of business and serious apprehen sions gained foothold, feeling that the far mers and planters of the country whose grievances were acknowledged were arousing from their slumbers and prostration for the great pur pose of redressing their wrongs by re taliating upon those whom was regarded as their aggressors. Now it has been demonstrated, and most satisfactorily, that these apprehensions had not the slightest foundation. We can and do claim, without fear of being contradicted, no organization was ever formed with pu rer motives and with nobler aims, for the protection of human rights, than the Grauge, and strange indeed, to us, it has had much and unjust opposition to over come even among the planting class, whilst its motives were so unjust and so lure, but being controlled entirely by farmers and planters inexperieneed in wire working, or in any co-operative ef fort, we cannot compare it better than to a ship launched upon strange waters, and at the same time manned by incompetent as well as inexperienced mariners, and is laden with an invaluable treasure. Sound ing of course had to be resorted to, and a chart prepared, compass set, and the men put in training even to handle the ropes and all the needed work, as well as stand at the helm. Such being our situation, who can be astonished at our craft being standed? who* is shocked at so many dormant Granges? Who is not astounded that our organiza tion still lives, that thirty States of this Union recently convened in National counsel, with brothers fired up with Grange zeal, working in beautiful harmo-. ny, brotherly love and ’earnestness, the deliberations of which has in spired new life and new confidence in our Order, not only in this na tion, but is keenly felt, in the Dominion of Canada, the representa tives of which were present, with warm and patriotic hearts fully revived in Grange interest, determined, like us, to perpetuate .our organization in the Do minion of'Canada, where it has taken deep root from the seed sown there by the National Grange. The cause of so much apathy and luke warmness in the Grange is given by the National Grange at its last session. Hear it: That the cause of dormant Granges emanates from the Grange admitting wrong materials, electing improper offi cers, want of proper instruction, failures in experiments in business, want of edu cation in the true objects and aims of our order, disregard of law, violating rules and regulations bringing about disorder and cliaos, dissensions engendered by in troducing personal differences in the Grange. The National Grange also sug gest the following remedy for dormant Granges: Reorganization of the Grange with proper material, careful and thor ough instruction by those reorganizing, proper and healthful education in the de claration of purposes and in the plan of cany ing them out, encouragement to those who have become indifferent, appointing competent deputies who are enthusiastic in our work—and not because they have aspirations for the position, hut because of their well-known fidelity and zeal, woven by tlieir good works. Visits should ie made to the dormant Granges by com mittees appointed by the neighboring Granges; lectures, public and private, should be kept up; Grange journals, whose devotion is sincere, earnest and filled with Grange subjects, as a means of education, and the Patrons of Husbandry of Missis sippi most wonderfully fills this necessity —pardon me forsayingtbis and every mem ber of the Grange for reading it. Who doubts all this? The various causes of dor- inanUgrangeSjCause of lukewarmness,of so much apathy, if any other cause exist among ns l it is our duty to find it out. Let our scrutiny be complete; sift earn estly for all causes. If the National Grange has failed to furnish a remedy in onr case, it is another duty imposed upon us. It- may be, our case is one of. great despera tion. If so, apply hold and desperate remedies if nothing short will answer our purposes. But let us first apply the mild est applications that are calculated to ac complished the desired work. In some States the pruning knife has been liberally applied with' healthy re sults, hut in Georgia the dis eased and improper element of the Grange, has sloughed off, therefore no work of a surgical character, no pruning required. Our organization is wanting in fertilization, that its membership may the needed remedy, hoping to remove the disease and invigorate it into new life and more enthusiasm. I call your special attention to the re port adopted by the National Grange, ai presented by a special committee of that body, as follows; “Worthy Master, your committee raised to take into consideration the state and condition ot American agriculture, and report such measures and policies as their judgment will tend to afford relief from the weights, hindrances and difficul ties that may beset it, and suggest such methods as will restore to American farm ers greater prosperity and promote their political and material wel fare, have given the subject such consideration as opportunity and circumstances allowed, and present the following report: Agricultural progress has never been more rapid than within the last decade. The modes of agricul ture have been vastly improved. The in vention of labor-saving implements and farm machinery has multiplied the pow ers of farm labor and accelerated the forces of production. In. that period the increase of raw production has been aug mented. The appliances and facilities for profitable farming are in the hands of every fanner, and the highest degree of agricultural progress is exhibited in. the marvelous abundance of harvest. From 1875 to 1878 the amount of newly settled lands in the Uni ted States was 18,755,115 acres. The ten dency is toward the increase of raw produc tion, and the new methods of cultivation upon all farming lands give additional and enlarged powers of production. From these additional resources agriculture yields a larger annual wealth, and taking a general vfew of its progress, it might he accepted as evidence of a general pros perity among those who are engaged in ite fields; but when applied to the indi vidual fanner, the reverse is presented Surrounded with such advantages, and, notwithstanding the stupenduous efforts of the agricultural people to keep abreast with the onward march of other trades, occupations and employments, farm capital and labor receive less re muneration than equal capital and labor employed in other departments of life American farming is growing less profit able and less encouraging. In a country possessing so many facilities of cheap production, this discouraging aspect of agriculture must be and is tha result of more than natural causes. The annual additions of wealth, under the enlightened system of agriculture, are enormous, but from the unequal divisions of the profits of labor and the unjust dis criminations made against it, the enlist ments of property show that the farmers of the United States are not pr While it is rapidly extinguishing all debts and restoring an equilibrium to the [cur rency of the country, its votaries are | de prived of a just share of the rewards of their toils. Capital concentrates to make comers and form rings to fix prices. Transportation companies are allowed to make and unmake prices at will by their unjust and discriminating tariffs and freights. Subsidies and tarifis are created to pro tect other industries to the prejudice of agriculture. -Commerce is shackled. American productions are denied the markets of the world, through partial and restrictive laws. Agricultural property is made to bear an unequal and undue pro portion of taxation, to afford exemption and privileges to other industries. [Mo nopolies arc pcmfltted to assume power and control, and exercise proipgatveisand privileges justly belonging to sovereignty. Encouraged by Legislation and stimula ted by power, they have grown dictatorial and imperious in their demands, unrelent ing in their exactions, and cruel and unmerciful in their im- pusilium* >»vw- - ^ ~ extravagant, and is now a heedless spend thrift ofthe painful earnings of labor. Government has become proud and auto cratic, while her toiling laborers are hu miliated in their poverty; States are lavish and prodigal with the people’s money; cities and towns grow rich at- the expense and impoverishment of the country; laws are ingeniously formulated to make jus tice tardy and thus tend to encourage crime and disorder. In view of the well established fact'that the productive industries must hear the burdens of society, chief among which is agriculture, the natural nursing mother of all the occupations, trades and professions of our people, it is found that it is overtax ed and overburdened with unnecessary, unequal and flagrant impositions, that a just sense of right would transfer to where they justly belong. The farmers of America have on all oc casions shown themselves to be a patient and enduring people, and further submis sion to wrong and injustice will he a sac rifice of manhood and exhibition of cow ardice. Stirred with a just sense of right, and supported by the integrity of our pur pose, the National Grange of the. Patrons of Husbandry, in the name aud interests of the farmers of the United States, stern ly demand • 1. That the Department of Agriculture shall be made an Executive Depart- meut, and the Commissioner a Cabinet officer. 2. The Agricultural department [shall be supported by annual appropriations commensurate with the importance ofthe great and permanent industry it repre sents. 3. That commercial treaties shall he made with all forei u countries, giving to American products equal and unobstruc ted intercourse with the markets of the world. 4. That governments be administered in a cheaper and simple, manner, conso nant with the conditions of the people. 5. That a more rigjd economy in the ex penditures of public moneys be re-es stablished. 3. That the laws shall ho plain and simple, to the end that justice shall be speedy, crime punished and good govern ment'maintained. • 7. That the creation or allowing of monopolies to exist is in violation of the spirit and genius of free republican gov ernment. 8. That the tarifis of freights and fare over railroads and all transportation com panies shall be regulated, and all unjust discriminations exhibited by law. . 9. That taxation shall be equal and uniform, and all values made to contrib ute their just proportion to the support of the government. 10. That the revenue laws ofthe United States shall be so adjusted as to bear equally upon all classes of property to the end that agriculture shall be relieved of the disproportions of burdens it bears. 11. That the patent laws of the United States be so revised that innocent purcha sers of patent rights shall be protected and fraudulent venders alone held responsible for infringements ot rights and violations of law.. 12. That a system of elementary agri cultural education shall be adopted in the common schools ofthe country. 13. That we are entitled to and should have a fair representation in the legisla tive halls of the country, chosen from the ranks of the fanners. The National Grange, finding the pat ent laws as construed by the courts ma king the innocent purchaser or maker-of any patented article, purchased or made in good faith for his own use, not know ing it to have been patented, liable to pay royalty for using the same, is an outrage upon common sense and antagonistic to every principle of justice and fair dealing, therefore directs me to present to you the following memorial, to which I also call your attention; To the Senate and House of Represenia- tivesjlh Congress assembled: Whereas, many persons having pur chased in good faith implements and ar ticles for their own use, and having inno cently used them for years, are now hav ing money extorted from them as “royal ty,” under threats of prosecution in the United -States Courts by persons claiming to be owners of patents covering sueli ar ticles and implements, thereby causing great injustice aud hardship to innocent persons, Therefore, We, the members ofthe Na- multiply and grow in strength. It needs tional Grange of the Patrons of Hus- lien'merchants, and'the cotton producers a stimulant, and we, its physicians, assem-j bandry, appointed in annual session at such amendments may be made to the pat ent laws as shall make tbe manufacturers or venders of such articles and imple ments that are' infringements on any pat ent that may have been granted amendable to the action of such patent laws instead of the innocent purchaser of such patented article or implement. And that any per son innocently making any implement or article for his own use, which is an in fringement upon any patent without know ing it to be such, may he allowed to pay the royalty upon it or by ceasing to use it, shall pot be liable to prosecution under such patent law. The Committee on Resolutions in the National Grange, stated the partial relief given us by the National and State Legis latures is accepted with thanks, as the re sult of petition. There is, however,.no substantial relief to the’ overburdened farmers of America, in any action thus far conceded by the legislative authorities of our government. Thirteen years experience and associa tion in the Grange has satisfied the Amer ican farmers, whom we represent, that their grievances will never'be removed until fanners are elected as representa tives to the law-making bodies of our States, and to the National Legislatures, in such numbers as will constitute those bodies with a fair share of our people. The sacred right of petition is the legitimate, and only way in which a minority can establish their claim to be released of unjust and unequal burdens. The American farmers once united to act and vote to gether, can assume the full authority of the law-making powers of the State aud of the national government. To do this, we will avail ourselves ol a constitutional right secured to us in perpetual succession by our honored sires, who founded this republic. We have come now to consider we can so act as to maintain our consti tutional right to equality and defend our manhood. We are admonished by every consideration in view of the threatened overthrow of the proprietorship of the farms we till, to act promptly and wisely. To this end, we recommend farmers to make such alliance whenever repre sentatives to the State legislature or to the national legislature are to be chosen as will enable them by their, votes to elect from their own number an.even- handed, fair share of representatives. Act ing together to accomplish this grand pur pose is no violation of their obligations as members of our Order. The assumption of this constitutional right is but the as sertion of our manhood, and we cannot longer be dominated by party associations which deny ui our equality or support a partisan press, that ignores the association of American farmers. THE MACOX AND BOAD. BRUNSWICK The Sale in Atlanta. The railroad news from the capital yes terday excited no little interest in the city. It was the topic of conversation in all circles and received varied comments on all sides. The final adjustment of the vexed question as to whether the lease made on the 13th of last month would be carried out, gave relief to the public mind and immediately started the additional in quiry as to the composition of the com pany into whose hands the road had passed, and what they intend to do. The road lias undoubtedly been sold in a bona fide manner to a company at whose head is Mr. R. T. Wilson, a miilioru>ire of New York. The other memh“ s are Mr. C. M. McGhee, ofthe Eas» Tennessee, Virginia, and Georgia Railroad, and the Memphis and Ch-rteston road, Colonel A. J. Lane, of this place; J. M. Couper, of Brunswick; —«i. George H. Hazlehurst, of Chatta nooga, Tenneso,^, several others whose names have not yet yeeu mada public. A brief history ofthe transac tions which have been going on re cently, which we get from undoubted au thority, may not be uninteresting. When Mr. Couper, who bid off the road at the late lease-sale, he did so on the as surance of Mr. Chauncy Vibbard that the money was ready for him Wherewith to meet all the requirements of the lease-sale act. Mr. Vibbard based his calculations on cablegrams from Mr. H. E. Wheeler, from London. At 2 o’clock, after the lease had been effected, Mr. Vibbard re ceived information from Mr. Wheeler that he could not or would not come up to his pare of the bargain. This overturned all calculations, and the railroad elephant was on the hands of the company. Mr. Couper could not raise the ten thousand dollars necessaiy, and Mr. Vibbaid was discovered to be in a similar condition. Messrs. George H. Hazlehurst and A. J. Lane bridged the difficulty with a contribution of five thou sand each, the money coming from the vault ofthe First National Bank. Mr. Hazlehurst left for New York the next day, and was followed by Colonel Lane and Mr. Couper shortly after. An- uother Savannah capitalist, who was largely depended on, is said to have also drawn out about tliis.time. After a few days Mr. Hazlehurst returned to Chatta nooga and Colonel Lane to Macon, having perfected their arrangements in New York, and since then the transactions have been gradually ar ranged. The company in the policy which is to be pursued is virtually the same which first leased the road. Messrs. Vibbard and Wheeler are out entirely. The change in the ownership of the road will be made at once. It is pretty well settled that Colonel Hazlehurst will be President and Colonel Lane General Superintendent. The new arrangement will make a change in the directorship, and the present commissioners will go out of office. In regard to the extension to Atlanta, nothing definite can be ascertained at present. It is thought, however, that Knoxville is the ultimate objective point with the company. At any rate, we think that Macon and Brunswick have reason for congratulation over the result of the whole transaction. The money for the purchase was paid yesterday in Atlanta. We learn also, on undoubted authority, that of two of the best informed directors of the Central road, that the rumored contract between the Central, Geoigia and Louisville and Nashville roads is entirely withoutfounda- tion.infact. Such a thing, if accomplished at all, is yet a thing of the future. Further developments in railroad cir cles are looked for with intense interest; Fred De Funiak’a Romance. Cindan.ti Gazette. | Mr. Fred De Funiak, the General Man ager of the Louisville and Nashville rail road, is held high in estimation by rail road men. He is an Austrian by birth, and the son of a famous son. He served the Austrian army in the Italian wars, and is the proud possessor of several med als and decorations won by acts ot brave ry trad discretion. He came to this coun try during the war of the rebellion and entered the so-called Confederate army, in which he rose to high rank on account liis ability as an engeneer. He served under Forrest and Dick Tay lor. At the battle of Selma, Ala., in which De Funiak took part, two Missip- pians, father aud son, fell wounded. The old man made a dying request of the Austrian that he would carry their re mains to tlieir homes in Mississippi. He promised and fulfilled his agreement. At the home of the dead men he met the daughter and sister, and fell in love with her. When the war closed thev were ville. Mr. De Funiak rose gradually from a subordinate situation in the service of the Louisville and Nashville Company to his present influential position. MRS. GREEN'S MILLIONS. The Woman who Owns 10,000 Shares of Louisville and Nashville and Great Southern Stock. “Oath." in the Cincinnati Bnqmirw.’l Some time ago the President of the Louisville and Nashville and -Great Southern railroad said that there was a woman owning stock in that railroad who had $25,000,000.1 thought over the whole range of women in this country, and fail ed to drop to any with that amount of money. 1 inquired of other persons, and they thought the woman was a myth. But I have understood,' within a day or two, that there is really a woman with a for tune of that, or approximate magnitude, though she is scarcely known to anybody in either finaricial'or social circles. She is a Mrs. Green, the wife of a form er American merchant in China, who is himself said to be worth $5,000,000. This gentlemen spends most of his time about the Union Club, New York, while his wife resides with an invalid son at Bel lows’ Fall, Vermont. She derives her fortune from a man known as “Blubber” Robinson, who owned the largest line of whale ships at New Bedford,'Mass. New Bedford, you will remember, is auite a modem town in New England, having been settled only ten years before the Revolutionary war. It took the name of Bedford, because the land was owned by a Mr. Russell, who* remembered that Russell was the family narno of the Dukes of Bedford. This town grew rich by the address of a Quak er : named Botch, who -persuaded the French and British Governments to let him ship them whale oil duty free. Then aiose a magnificent whaling’ business for New Bedford, Which, in 1838,'had 170 whale ships, employing 4,000 sailors, aind which fleet brought in 160,000 barrels of whale oil a year. Tho man known as “Blubber” Robin son is said to have had a line of whale snips painted blue in color, and had ex traordinary success, both oh the sea and in the employment of his capital on shore. After the discovery of gold in California the whaling business declined, aud dur ing the war of the rebellion the big New Bedford fleet in the Pacific Ocean was. de stroyed by one of the worthless rebel pri vateers. Meantime it seems the carefully treasured wealth of “Blubber” Robinson passed into the hands of a daughter, edu cated into an extraordinary passion Cor penury, and taught that there was but one commandment left to m.n, and that wa3 to “know the value of money.” In the city of Paris, on an occasion, Miss Robinson encountered Mr. E. H. Green, and their fortunes were joined. She, however, kept her own separately, both in the amount and the management, ahd I understand that Mr. Cisco, in New York, is her business agent and makes her investments. Mr. Green, meantime, hunts out investments oh his own ac count. Mi's. Green is said to have ten thousand shares of stock in the Louisville oigv^tt' tion, and considerably more than get w the Houston and Texas. Central jpuioad. If we will suppose that these te* thousand shares originally cost $40 ■•‘•share, they have gone up $1,000,000 J* c “ e subsequent rise of the stock.- I aft n ?t sure (hat I have the figures my mind as to the numb'*-,’’ 1 shares possessed by this worn*- ™ husband, Mr. Green, is said nave been originally a man of fine gen eral observation and respectable — ship, but his connection with such a well- husbanded fortune has made him some thing of a monomani ac on wealth.
