Telegraph & Messenger. THURSDAY MORNING. JULY 13. 1871 Tronble In New York. The noon dispatches indicate that there is to be a good deal of disorder and tronble in New York. The Irish population on both sides seem ripe for it, and will not be controlled. The riotous manifestations are so scattered as to puzzle the police, who aro sent hither and thither to put down disorder. We fear there is considerable method at the bottom of this piadness. To divide and scatter the con servative forces will be to prepare the way for a grand onslaught at aoy point of concentration the rioters may have secretly agreed upon. There may be no such strategy in contempla tion, but we should suspect it. Contrary to our interpretation of Superinten dent Kelso's order of Tuesday, it appears that be did undertake to prohibit the Orange pro cession, but - suddenly revoked his order for bidding the procession, upon the appearance of Governor Hoffman's proclamation directing that the procession should be permitted and protected. Governor Hoffman is right. Every class of the people must be protected at all haz ards in the promulgation of their views and opinions in every lawful way. It will not do for the Government to yield a single right of the citizen to appease the spirit of intolerance. Such concession would be a premium to popular tyranny and lawlessness, and encourage still further aggressions. Men who feel outraged by Orange or Radical or Democratic proces sions, must turn their heads tho other way. To stop one is to concede the right to stop all. The Hibernians would have been ready to fight on the moment, if Kelso had ordered their St. Patrick demonstrations stopped, and yet they coolly demanded that Kelso should stop tho Orange processions, and ho was weak enough to yield to their clamor. Tho Hibernians should come out boro nud take a lesson. It was a little tough on tho whites, just aftor the war, to be hollered at and insulted from flaunting nogro processions, but not one was ever molested notwithstanding, and after a time the negroes tired of offensive demonstrations of this character and abandoned them. True, tho Orangemen appear to us very silly and ill-natnred to persist in these light-provok ing parades and put the publio to so much anx iety, trouble and expense; but the Constitution and laws vest in every man the right to be a fool if he prefers, and the Hibernians will show themselves still greater fools if they go to riot ing and head-breaking on account of tho folly and ill-nature of the Orangemen. It is a hot day to fight—this Wednesday. The mercury is Homewhere in the nineties, and, as a matter of taste, we suppose any man should prefer to sit in the shade and take an iced lemonade. But then there’s no accounting for taste, and we believe many of the sons of the Emerald Isle would take a fight before a good dinner, as an article of luxury. Oar College System, The New York Commercial Advertiser Hays, under the above head : For reasons to which we referred a few days ago, there has been an unusnalstir at the recent ooliege commencements and a remarkable de gree of interest in the improvement of educa tion generally, both in the higher and lower grades. The main causes ot this, as we have already shown, are the modification of tho col lege curriculum by the invasion of modern ideas, and the admission of Alumni to a direct interest in the control of the college, by allowing them a voice in the selection of trustees. There has been noticed this year an unwonted degree of liberality in donations, and an unexpected and gratifying determination on the part of gradu ates to build up the waste places of their Alma Mater—“they will keep dropping in to Bee the dear old crater.” The introduction of new blood in the management, both in the Board of Trustees and amoDg the Professors, has prov ed in the highest degree beneficial, and a stim ulus is given to college education which is aus picious of the best results in the future. These are all the beneficent results of the action of the Alumni, who have taken a new interest in the colleges where they have graduated, and who begin to feel and assert a personal respon- bility in the system of higher education preva lent in. the country. This is the universal testimony given by the Northern and Western press. It is significant, and should stimulate tho friends of a similar advance in Georgia to united action at’the ap proaching University Alumni meeting at Athens, on the 31st instant. United action means suc cessful action, and we will not allow ourselves to think of any other result. We do honestly believe that the meeting at Athens, if numerously attended aud well han dled, will set the hands on the dial of true pro gress forward at least ten years. We desire to build np the University so that it may bnild np the cause of general education in the State. If its Alumni were in the same position as to per sonal power and responsibility occupied by others of a similar clasa elsewbere, they would soon be enabled to do a similar work for their Alma Hater. The most prosperous Northern colleges are those whero these advance steps have been taken, and where the prosperity is highest there is found not only the strongest disposition, but the greatest ability to promote the cause of general education. Wo want to see the day when tho University of Georgia will be strong enough and rich enough to say to all of Georgia's sons seeking ed ucation in any department of brain or muscle- work: “ Enter in without money and without price.” And if the Alumni of the University can find a point for tho lever of their mighty power as an organized, harmonions, resolute and responsible body of earnest men, we shall not despair of seeing that consummation sooner than even the most sanguine of us now hope for. “American Sculpture.” According to Judge Haliburton, when Earn Slick, the Conneotieut clock pedlar, was in Rome, he exhibited surprising evidences of the universality of Yankee genius. He visited the studios of the sculptors and, taking chisel in hand, found he could “sculp” with tho very bepj of them. With only the proficienoy and prac. tice attained in decorating the common wooden clock of Connecticut, ho fonnd he conld far sur pass tho best artists in the Eternal City, and astonished them ont of their slippers with the brilliant and surprising effects he was able to prodnee on oanvass. “You’d a ben amazed,” said Sam, in bis raoy narrative, “to see them old fogies wall their eyes when I showed ’em how to paint.” Sam, at that time, was on a special mission to Rome for the purpose of filling up the vacant plaoes in the great national gallery at Slickville with the productions of the best mnsters, and what Slickville saved in solid cash by the judg ment, taste and discrimination of Mr. Slick, is briefly embodiod in Sam’s declaration that he “ actilly bought a raft of bright spick and span new pieters for less'n a quarter of tho money they had the impidenoe to tax for some old dingy, mouldy cusses, fit for nothing but to wall np a potater bin.” This passage in tho history of American fino arts is irresistibly bronght to mind by the groans of the Northern papers-over the recent exploits of “American Sculptors,” which are disfiguring the Capitol and the chief cities of the republio. The Herald sighs profoundly over the statue of Morse, which has just been unveiled in New York—a thing positively without form and in the likeness of nothing in the heavens above or of the earth baneath. And the same has been said of every other successive piece of so- called American soulpture which has shamed the light of day in the Northern cities. The people are mortified about them. They feel that their Christian reputation is involved. Foreigners mistake these misshapen “Aggers” for heathen idols, which it is well known are a earrioature on nature, and designed to awaken astonishment and awe by mere ugliness. We trust the Herald will send down to Slickville and soenre the interposition of the sagacions clockmaker at once. Let Slick take his ohisel and sculp not only Morse, but Lincoln and the equestrian Washington into the sbape of some 1 thing, even if it is Yankee Doodle or Hail Colnm- by. If he can’t do that, let him put on a dozen arms or a tail and label them as missionary trophies captured from the Polynesians. Itruuswlck and Albany Railroad We are informed that two train loads of the men, mules and equipments of Grant, Alexan der A Co.—220 men and 61 mules and carts— are on their way from the Brunswick and Al bany Railroad to the Cherokee Railroad, or as it was formerly called, the Cartersville and Van Wert Railroad. Messrs. G., A. A Co. had made their arrangements, when they bad finished their work to Albany, to pass over the sickly section between Albany and Cnthbert, and to commence work between Cuthbert and Eufaula. The tronble, however, between the land owners and the railroad company caused Mr. H. L Kimball, President of tho Brunswick and Albany Rail- road, to suspend the work between Cuthbert and Eufaula. This step forced Messrs. G., A. A Co. either to work the State convicts in a very sickly section, or leave the road. At consider able expense and sacrifice of peenniary interests, they resolved upon the latter course. A game of chess has been carried on for the past four weeks between Messrs. J. W. Burke, of Macon, and R. S. Stockton, of Columbus. It is still being played. Each is informed of the moves of the other by letter.—Savannah Ad vertiser. A Coon Place.—Prof. Hitchcock, State Geol ogist of New Hampshire, with a party of five persons spent last winter on Mount Washington. They quartered five\months in a single room eleven feet wide, twenty feet long and eight feet high, which they found very difficult to keep warm. Outside, the thermometer frequently indicated 59 degrees below zero. From the be ginning of November to the close of January there was not a single clear day, and in the next three months only one clear day in each fnonth. No gloomier or no more dangerous existence conld be experienced even in the Arctic regions, death from tho cold or the tornado being possi ble every moment. Gbant, in bis proclamation of pardon of the murderer and bigamist, Bowen, gives as one reason moving him thereto the fact that Bowen had “rendered good service to the cause of the Union.” Wherein he differed, very materially, from the trewly loyl jury who convicted the bigamist. They held that he had rendered too much service to the cause of the “Union,” if having three wives counts for anything. at the present term of the Chatham Superior Court and sent to the penitentiary for seven years, has been pardoned by Bullock—as we learn from the SavAnnah Republican. Mrs. Mary Doolittle and Rev. James W. Cos- ton, both of Washington county, died last week. Putnam county farmers have about whipped the fight with “Gen. Grass.” Major Brookins, Ordinary of Washington county, received painful injuries by a fall last Sunday night. The Smdersville Georgian of Wednesday makes the following crop report for last week: Crop Repoet.—The prospect haB brightened somewhat since the rams, yet is by no means flattering, but rather the reverse. We have seen and conversed, within the past few days, with planters—;farmers—and they speak de- spondmgiy. One, a gentleman of fine judg ment and one of the best planters in the State, says he planted for six thousand bushels of corn, manured highly and cultivated well. Thinks now he will do well to get three thousand. His cotton will probably yield half a crop Three others, living remote from each other and in different parts of the county, make similar re ports of their crops. We have no better farm ers than these four. They tell us further, that some, excited by the rise in cotton, have neg lected their corn to push the cotton. Hence many com crops, we fear, are sadly behind those from which we take our report. John Farley, son of William Farley, machinist at the State Road shops, Atlanta, was ran over by a train at Vining's Station, on Monday, and one of his thighs fearfully mutilated. We clip as follows from the last Southern Re corder : We were told by a gentleman, that the Fourth of July celebration by the negroes was to all in tents and purposes, nothing but a rejoicing over the death of Capt. L. H. Kenan, who had made himself obnoxous to them by shooting some time since at Mr. Strother. The now wings to the Asylum at Midway, will be three stories high, and contain one hun dred and thirty-two bed rooms, beside several largo recreation halls. The structures are rising rapidly, more than fifty workmen being em ployed all the while. Atlanta bowled, Tuesday, over 4,000 water melons brought to that city over the Georgia Railroad. Mrs. Faller, mother of Messrs. W. A. and James A. Faller, well known railroad conduc tors of this State, died in Clayton county, last Monday; aged 65 years. The local of the Conatilntion has seen a dia mond necklace and pin in an Atlanta jewelry store, just ordered by “a party in Southwest Georgia,” at a cost of $5,000. We credit the Monroe Advertiser, of Tues day, with tho following items : The merchantile establishment of Merritt A Turner, owing to the stringency of the times, closed doors about two weeks since. The stock on band was bought by B. Pye, and was being removed yesterday. Butts Public School.—Mr. E. E. Pound, Secretary of the Board of Education, has given notice that the public schools provided for by the last school law will open Monday next, the 17th inst. Teachers will be paid according to the grade of certificate held by applicant, from $1 50 to $2 50 per scholar per mouth. Ibon Deposits —We learn from Butts county, that a couple of Northern gentlemen have made a geological survey of the county, and report immense iron deposits. The early competition of the Griffin and Madison Railroad will render these iron fields accessible. A mebchast remarked to us yesterday, that “just at present everybody who owes anybody else money is gone to the Springs,” which means that creditors are lamenting. Jno. L. Hillter, son of Dr. Hillyer, Presi dent of Monroe Female College, will be ordained as a minister of the Baptist O mrch next Sun day morning. Next Saturday night the Carpet-baggers’ and Soalawaga’ State Central Polemio Society of South Carolina will debate the great National qnestion, “Does the President’s pardon of Bowen authorize that distinguished gentleman to marry some more ?” Front seats reserved for ladies bringing certificates of loyalty. f Courier-Journal. THE CiJBOICUIA I’KESS. Our friend “J. W. Burke, of Macon,” begs us to say that the above is not correct, and that be has never played a game of chess by letter, or otherwise, with R. S. Stockton, of Columbus. The Street Railroad.—We are requested to jog the memory of the subscribers to the capital' stock of this company with regard to paying the first installment thereof, which has already been called for. Step up, gentlemen, and interview Major Cobb, the secretary, at J. \V. Burke A Co.’s. _ Hot Weatheb.—The Charleston Couriersays that on Sunday the mercury stood at 97 in a very cool place in the office of that paper, and was as high as 99 and 100 in other parts of the oily. Adjourned terms of tho Superior Courts of Burke and Washington counties, commenced Monday. It is probable that the Oxford broth ers, the desperadoes now in jail at Augusta, will be taken to the latter county for trial, this session. The Augusta ghost has been captured. It was a crazy negro woman wrapped in a sheet Another heavy rain storm at Augusta, Tues day. The Chronicle and Sentinel, of Wednesday, publishes tho following: Married.—In this county, on the 9th instant, by Judge John L. Ells, Charles F. Keener, and Elizabeth Stevens, all of this county. Funeral Notice. —-The friends and acquain tances of Charles F. Keener are respectfully re quested to attend his funeral THIS (Tuesday) MORNING at 9 o’clock, from his late residence near Harrisburg. Of the North Eastern Railroad to run from Athens towards Knoxville, the Constitutionalist, of Wednesday, says: The people of Athens and Northeast Georgia, weary of waiting and sick of hope deferred, have lately organized a company for bnilding the proposed road, and this company is looking for and seeking aid from the Central Road.— Having lost heart as to being aided in their en terprise by the Georgia Road, they now turn to their only remaining hope, the Central Road. Their effort, as we learn, will be to induce the Central to extend its Eatonton branch to Madi- sod, 21 miles, and thence to Athens, 28 miles, making a total of only 49 miles from Eatonton to Athens : then, with an interest in the pro posed road from Athens to Clayton, make it a main through line from Clayton to Savannah, which might effectually kill off the Athens branch of the Gebrgia Road, and consequently flank Augusta as to the trade from that section. All the alleged Washington county Ku-klux who have been on trial at Savannah this week, were discharged Taesday. What was or will be done with the lying, vagabond negroes who bad them arrested is not stated, but we have a very clear notion what ought to be done with them. Those festive yonng Floridians, Messrs. E. P. Sheaver and J. C. Brooks, who amused them selves by shooting into the windows of a private residence at Savannah, on Sunday, got off with $100 fine and costs. They were lucky. In (he case of the Tax Receiver of Richmond county vs. the Augusta Factory, Judge Gibson has decided that the capital stock must be re turned at its par value, but the real estate, money and solvent debts are to be returned and taxed separately. Mrs. Geo. R. Jessup, of Madison, was robbed one day last week of a satchel containing $560, and $800 or $900 worth of diamonds and jewel ry. The thief got into the house through a second story window. Sunday and Taesday were very suggestive days to the Savannah sinners. The thermome ter, on Sunday, at 2 o’clock p. si., in our friend Sneed’s office, marked 99 degrees, and the ice in the retail shops gave out. Mr. J. Howard, of Columbus, has been elected Superintendent of the Savannah, Seaboard and Skidaway Railroad. Henry Dnffis, a bricklayer, died suddenly at Savannah, on Tuesday, from the effects of the extreme heat. Mr. Frederick Schustor, formerly the Prus sian Consul at Savannah, has vamosed from that city leaving a mourning circle of creditors who lament his departure just $20,000 worth. H. W.
