SUNDAY MORNING. JULY CO, 1871.
“Rejected Communications.”
The New York Tribune, of Tuesday, has an
editorial on the subject of “Rejected Commu
nications,” from which we quote the following:
“A great majority of all people who know how
to road and write, besides many who certainly
do not know how to write—are possessed at
some period of their lives with a morbid impulse
to contribute to the newspapera. They are
persuaded that any man can write a leader if
he chooses, and that the faculty of saying what
the people want to hear in a stylo suited both
to the subject and tho audience comes by na
ture to all graduates of a district school. It is
an amiablo hallucination which repeated fafl-
nres and rebuffs are rarely able to dispeL The
young persons who believe they have a mission
to write verses, tho women who want to sup
port themselves by selling “compositions” to
the newspapers, and the scores of people with
bees in their bonnets who visit editors’ offices
with ponderous essays on incomprehensible sub
jects, are still more serious afflictions than tho
mero amateur publicists. Now, more than
ninety per cent, of the articles offered for ac
ceptance at a newspaper office come from
these different classes of people. They write
for their own bonefft, not for the editor’s. Their
coi^fjbutions aro not wanted; 'on the contrary,
they are n nuisance. Wo cannot see upon
what ground an editor is expected to expend
timo and trouble taking care of rubbish that is-
left on his premises against his wishes.”
RaEion or Contbact.—The New York Sun
arraigns tho officials absent from Washington
for a breach of contract with the people. There
are a legion of them, but the principal offenders
are—President Grant, Hamilton Fish, Secretary
of State; Columbus Delano, Secretary of the
Interior; W. W. Belknap, Secretary of War;
George M. Robeson, Secretary of the Navy;
J. A. J. Croswcll, Postmaster-General; A. T.
Akerman, Attorney-General; F. E. Spinner,
Treasurer and Staff; W. A. Richardson, Assist
ant Secretary of tho Treasury, with a staff; F.
A. Walker, Superintendent of Census; J. C. B.
Davis, Assistant Secretary of State; E. B.
French, Second Anditor of the Treasury; A.
Rutherford, Third Auditor of tho Treasury; 3.
Delano, Chief Clerk Intorior Department: J.
Allison, Register of the Treasury; and many
others too numerous to mention. The President
having set tho example of going a pleasuring
whenever Congress is not in session, all the rest
follow it.
Very much after th6 same pattern is tho fol
lowing important naval expedition chronicled
by tho name number of the Sun:
Tho Government yacht Tallapoosa arrived in
this city tho other day, having ns cargo several
Rear-Admirals, half a dozen ladies, two or three
old anchors, n dozen chain cables, a good many
baskets of obampngne, and a large number of
other articles. The Tallapoosa, after landing
the anchors and chain cables, is going with tho
Rear-Admirals, tho ladies, and the baskets of
champagne, to tho coast of Maine on a little
summer excursion. The vessol, the Rear-Ad
mirals, and the champagno woro inspected on
Friday by the Secretary of the Navy, and pro
nounced to bo in perfect readiness for tho trip.
Tho Tallapoosa, tho Rear-Admirals, and the
ladles will return about tho 15th of August.
The champagno will probably not return.
An Albany paper says: “A North Adams man
named Hawley, who was a school-teacher in
Mississippi, bos just returned home, and tells a
fearful Btory of persecution at the hand of tho
Ku-klox. He says that, notwithstanding tho
faet that ho was lying low with fever, he was
called up at night and ordered to leave the State
instantly. Ho was not even permitted to take
bis trunk with him.” That’s always the way
with them. Whenever a carpet-bagger acci
dently learns that tho tracks around the hen
roost fit his, and that the Constable is in search
of him, bo hurries away to tho North and reports
that the ICu-klux had ordered him to leave the
Stato at once, nqt oven permitting him to take
his trunk with him. Ten ohancos to one tho
North Adams man, like the rest of them, had no
trunk to tako with him.—Courier-Journal
An Old Document.—A friend came across,
the other day, an old pamphlet (1858) being a
design for laying out tho Central Park in New
York city, with a plan in lithograph, by
Samuel I. Gustin, now of this city. [We will
save Mr. Gastin’s modesty by saying that he
knows nothing about this notice.) This plan
developes the Park very much as it now exists.
It was rejected,because considered too extensive
and oostly; but it received the aooond premium,
and subsequently nearly all the ideas of Mr. G.
were adopted—even to the extension which
ho planned. Mr. G. is a first-rate landscape
gardener, and is extending his aid to beautify
the Fair Grounds in this city, as far 03 means
will permit.
Charleston Election.—Charleston holds a
municipal election next Wednesday, August be
ing soloctod by tho negroes as the time because
many of tho whites are then absent. The whites
have put out a conservative ticket headed by
the name of Gen. John A. Waggener. The ne-
groos have had more trouble in getting up a
ticket, and by lost accounts had two in the field
—one characterised as tho Mackey-Mushington
ticket, the other as Squashee-Gumbo.
Cotton Stealings.—Tho Commercial Adver
tiser says the cotton dealers are casting about
to find some remedy for the immense loss of
weight, occasioned by pilfering from the bale by
vagabonds, big and little. One plan suggested
is tho concentration of the cotton at a few points
where it can be under surveillance all the time.
It is proposed to establish great warehouses at
Communipaw, Rod Hook and at the Atlantic
docks in Brooklyn.
Frolic or the Heavy Weights.—The New
York “Heavy Men’s Association” held a grand
dam-bake last week. Not a man was there who
weighed loss than the minimum 200, but there
wore no ladies. Now, the next time the heavy
weights have a pic nic, let them send down to
Georgia and they can be matched with ladies to
correspond—real queenly, august 200 pounders,
and not obese either.
Mrs. Spraoux's Dress.—Six and a half yards
of French silk—eighteen thousand dollars. The
papers make this item the text for abundant
homilies on female extravagance—but who
would not like to see the French silk which
cost §2,768 per yard? Evidently it must be fine
and gloriously embroidered. There is no-doubt
Mrs. Sprague is quite as able to pay for such a
dress as for a calico, but still, we suppose the
example is a bad one.
Bran County School Commissioners.—The
next meeting takes place next Tuesday (1st Au
gust) at the City Council Chamber, at 10 o’clock.
We ask that every member make it a point to
be present punctually at the time.
A ministerial crisis is reported in the Empire
of HaytL This is fearful news.
When annoying serenading parties go around
in Nevada the fire department is called out “to

THE LOHU BRANCH CACCITN.
Tlse Two Alternative*—A OalvanlzesJ Ku-
klax or a Ucueral Amnesty ami Over
flowing Rove.
Our readers know that some days ago there
was a gathering of several of the Radical Saints
from the South and elsewhere, at the Long
Branch villa of His Excellency, the President
of the United States—certain prominent North
ern engineers, among whom was the sagacious
Forney, and a liberal sprinkling of Southern
Fuglemen, among whom was Gov. Bullock, of
Georgia.
The business on band was to compare views
upon the issues and tactics for the grand cam
paign of 1872, and, of course, tins interesting
party did not sit with open doors. But it is hard
to congregato even no very largo crowd without
finding some leaky vessel among tho nuiiber;
and there was ono such leaky vessel at this con
clave—a person singularly described as “a New’
England politician from Florida.” This man
conld not hold in, bat fonnd a vent somewhere
on the road homeward and disclosed the conclu
sions of the conclave.
The line of battle had been badly disarranged
by the “now departure”—so-called. Tho plan
elaborated and digested by Morton, Butler,
Forney and others, had th9 merit of entire har
mony with the feelings and precedents of the
Radical organization. It cost them no sacrifice
of inclination or good will to pursue a system
of bitter and nnsparing warfare npon the
whites of the Sonth, and there was not one par
ticle of doubt that it could bo prosecuted with
triumphant success so long as tho Southern
whites arrayed themselves against any of the
called ‘■'fruits of the war." Anything which
oonld be tortured into a sectional opposition to
that great sectional victory was, at least, a gage
of moral battle—a virtual prolongation of the
fight, in which Southern defeat was a foregone
conclusion, and wherein all Northern supporters
and sympathizers wonld unfailingly share the
common overthrow.
The misfortune of tho sitnation was that in
order to put this war in a line of vigorous pros
ecution tho strategy had to be exposed. There
must be a Eu-klux bill and Ku-klnx committees
and investigations, and a long array of violences
and cruelties towards the “Southern Unionists,”
black and white, proved and printed, to show
beyond controversy that the pertinacious resist
ance of the South to the constitutional amend
ments had its origin, not in any abstract politi
cal principles, bnt in rebellious and malignant
purposes.
The parade of all this enginery in advance
disclosed the plan of battle, and rendered strat
egy impossible. Hence, after Grant had forced
the En-klnx bill through Congress, he started
immediately out on his Western tour with Mor
ton, and boldly resolved to pin the issue of a
fight against these amendments npon the Dem
ocratic party. But the prompt declarations of
the Northern Democrats that they would make
no fight against these amendments, however
corruptly obtained, disgruntled the whole ar
rangement
One great object of this meeitng of Sduthom
and Northern “representative Republicans,”
was to hear particularly from tho former whether
the Southern whites were likely to push opposi
tion to the “new departure” to the point of
schism, and how heavy a Eu-klnx indictment
conld bo mado ont against the Southorn whites.
The information on either hand was not very
gratifying or as promising as conld bo desired;
bnt still it loft a fair chance of success open.
It was determined, therefore, for the present,
to rest on the established order of battle and
proceed, might and main, to “galvanize the
Ku-klux,” (that was the expression,) with all
the appliances, energy and activity at the com
mand of tho party. Before the end of tho next
session of Congress it could be seen what effect
these operations were likely to prodace on the
Northern mind. If they woro likely to reawaken
and intensify the war spirit and sectional con
tempt, and hatred and distrust—nothing better
conld be desired. The campaign conld then go
on according to Morton’s original draft, and
wonld be a roappeal to every feeling of the
North which was enlisted and exasperated by
the bloody strifes of 1861-5. The report of the
majority of tho Kn-klnx Committee conld be
backed before tho people with all the resources
of pictorial art. Pictures of the hanging and
whipping of negroes—of burning school houses
and defenceless Northern school inarms, fleeing
before the infuriated Kn-klnx, conld hardly fail
to stimulate Northern exasperation almost to
madness and overwhelm the Democratio apolo
gists and sympathizers with popular loathing.
But, on the other hand, it was not to be dis
guised that the loyal witnesses, so far before the
Committee, were of such a character as to de
tract from tho force of their testimony; and
there appeared to be a growing inclination
among the Northern voters to quiet sectional
animosities—let by-gones be by-gones, and re
store the era of sectional good-fellowship and
fraternity. If, unfortunately, this feeling should
be likely to frustrate the Morton plan of bat
tle-nothing then remained but a "new depart
ure" more striking than any conceived by the
Democrats.
The demand for a restoration of fraternal
feelings most be met bv the Radicals with a
programme of tho broadest and most liberal
charaoter. They must proclaim at once univer
sal amnesty and the restoration of confidence
and love. They must throw away tho Ku-klux
enginery and buy up and conciliate a strong
white following in the South. There would be
ample time for the National Republican Con
vention to proclaim this grand revolution in the
pnblio policy, and for the administration to fol
low suit with honied words and gilded palms to
the despised and down-trodden whites of the
Southern States. Thus, without losing the ne
gro following, they wonld supplement it power
fully in the South, and at the same time they
could appeal to the North and say, “ having re
stored Southern peace and order on the basis of
universal equality, we are now abont to secure
Southern love and gratitude. Wa have used
the rod successfully. We now tender the olive
branch.”
These, in brief, were the two grand alterna
tive proposed and adopted by the Presidential
conclave at Long Branch, as we have good rea
son to believe.
Editors Telegraph and Messenger : The re-_
ceivers and shippers of this city are highly
gratified at the fast time being made by the
various lines leading to this city. You are in
error as to the time stated in your issue of yes
terday morniDg—four days from New York via
Savannah. The ship San Salvador left New
York at 3 p. m., on Saturday, 22d, (not Sunday,
23d.) You see the time was over four day's.
We reckon it about five days and two or three
hours. We know of a lot of cotton that left
here one Friday morning at seven o’clock, via
Charleston, and at 11 o’clock Tuesday morning
it arrived in New York, being four days and
three hours. Boots.
Monday's New York Tribune says a religions
paper publishes a curious appeal in the follow
ing words:
“It is asked of all newspapers, desiring
the spread of truth, and the destruction of
error, that they publish this request and prayer
to Almighty power, that on the three first Sun
day nights in October, 1871, there shall appear
in the heavens a distinct light in the shape of a
great cross.”
Thera is something like an answer in advance
to such a petition already written: “Except ye
see sigh ns and wonders, ye will not believe.’’

Columbus, up to Thursday night, had receiv
ed 76,204 bales of cotton—shipped 74,177, and
had 2,027 bales on hand.
Apflinq County Milch Cows —The Enquirer
heard the reliable gentleman say that he lately
saw in Appling oounty a lot of one hundred and
fourteen cows milked, and that one gourd held
the entire yield! Appling has abandoned the
idea of going into tho dairy business.
The Enquirer gives the proceedings of a rail
road meeting on Wednesday at “Buffalo Y7al-
low,” where the party doubtless had a wet time
of it.
Business in Columbus—The Snn says suffi
cient city returns cf the last quarterly sales
have come in to show that they aro 18 percent,
less than the same time last year. Some deal
ers, however, report a greater amount than dur
ing the quarter in 1870. This shews, however,
that much more goods have been disposed of—
about 7 per cent, more—because prices are at
least 25 per cent, less than they were last year.
The decrease is especially marked in corn and
bacon.
From the same paper we clip the following:
A bedstead was levied on for money owed by
"a negro woman. Twelve other colored ladies
claim it as their property. Matter has been
brought before a justice and the “levyer” sus
tained.
Crop Reports.—The crops in Muscogee and
Stewart counties are reported as doing well. In
Stewart abont half a corn crop will be made and
a three-quarter one of cotton. The cotton looks
well, but the stand is poor. In the adjoining
Alabama counties rain is needed. Com there
is very good, cotton about tho same as in the
Georgia counties.
At Buffalo Wallow, says the Sun, a young

Total decrease in passenger receipts $10,057 47;
in freight ditto, $4,183 77. Daring the year
67,478 bales of local, and 2,500 of through
cotton were transported over the road. A pro

TUe Monroe County Fair.
Availing myself of the polite invitation of
the Agricultural Society of Monroe County, I
visited the delightful town of Forsyth on Sat
urday, the 29th of July, in company with many
citizens of Bibb to see the exposition of our
neighbors of Monroe. I think it due to the
good citizens of this time-honored county to
say that a more oreditable county fair it would
be hard to produce. The stock displayed was
very good—fino horses, mules, cattle, sheep and
hogs—also poultry of the various species. Then
the products of tho plantation, farm and gar
den were as fine as I have ever seen. The no
ble ear of corn—the fine sweet and Irish pota
toes, the wheat, oats, rye and barley—the large
and full fruited cotton stalks, all gave promise
of an abundant harvest and a remunerative re
ward to the industrious citizens of great old
Monroe.
But I cannot forbear to mention, with the
highest comm endation, the department in which
the ladies participated. There was their handi
work in beautiful and tasteful colors—their ele
gant floral tables emitting the fragrance of a
thousand flowers— the fine loaves of bread and
beautiful rolls—the elegantly decorated cakes—
the jellies, preserves and other sweet-meats—all
graced and presided over by Middle Georgia’s
boantifol and blooming girls, more attractive to
ns than all other earthly blessings.
Bnt we must mention that thi3 county con
tains more genial generous hospitality than any
part of the world we have ever had the good
fortune to visit. Among those vising for the
premium cf hospitality we most mention our
old friends, Captain Mobley, Gus Cabiniss, Bnd
Hammond, Captain Dunn, Major Bean and
scores of others. The President, Colonel G.
W. Adams, was at home in the midst of the
multitude. But we were particularly impressed
with the urbane yet active manner of our old
friend Dr. Lawton, whose face seemed to be lit
up with smiles, as he passed from table to table
and stall to stall, and then realized the fall re
sponse which bis fellow-citizens, both male and
female, had made to his call upon them for a
County Fair. I regret, Messrs. Editors, that
the whole State could not have the same spirit
infused into them that glorious old Monroe has
this day displayed. Visitor.

Lord Shaftsbnry has lately made an effort in
the British Parliament to extend the protection
of the Factory Acts to children employed in the
English brickyards. According to testimony
submitted by him :—
About 30,000 young persons, varying in age
from three and a half to seventeen, are engaged
in toil for fonrteen and sixteen horns a day,
carrying on their heads lumps of clay weighing
40 pounds from the clay heaps to the tables
where the bricks are made. Lord Shaftsbury
mentioned, among other cases, a child eight
years old who carried forty-three ponnds weight
of clay on his head an average distance of fif
teen miles daily, and worked seventy-three
hours a week. One of the inspectors of facto
ries says that a child ten years old will be re
quired to remove three and a half tons of clay
a distance of forty yards daily, traversing fonr
teen miles in the course of his or her task.
Lord Shaft6bury described the poor creatures
from personal observation as themselves almost
transformed into lumps of clay, tottering about
half naked under their burdens, and compelled
to enter places so hot and burning that hefound
it impossible to stay there. The physical re
sults are necessarily bad, but the moral atmos
phere of the brick fields is even more appalling,
men, women and children being brought down
to a point of degradation and suffering like the
beasts of the field.
Charleston, as a commercial city, is gradu
ally rising to its old place among exporters. It
has always been the great nee market of the
country. In 1869 70 its crops amounted to 41,-
172 tierces, and this year it shows an increase
of 6,000 tierces over last year. The last crop
gathered before the war was 161,515 tierces.
Previous to the rebellion the finest quality of
Carolina rice was exported to Havre for mann-
ture into sign stones, a beautiful imitation of
Parian marble, uses for statuettes and other or
naments. Copenhagen, Bremen, and Amster
dam, and other ports of Continental Europe,
imported largely of our American rice. Now
our home demands would alsorb folly 100,000
tierces. Endeavors are being made to intro
duce Chinese labor into the rice swarmps, but
the best judges say that only negro labor can be
employed there profitably.
Patrick burns was recently convicted of mur
der in St. Louis, and sentenced to death. The
Governor afterward commuted his sentence to
ten years’ imprisonment. It was necessary that
the commutation should be accepted, but Patrick
couldn’t decide whether be should wait a decade
in the dungeon for the light, or take his chances
in another world in much less time, and a week
or two had been granted him in which to make
up his mind.
The .Skeleton In the Closet.
According to the Sun royal families are, after
all, not always models of domestic harmony.
That paper says:
The marriage of the Princess Louise with the
Marquis of Lorne was not, according to late
English gossip, by any means the love match it
has been popularly supposed to be, and the
wedded pair are now far from happy together.
Toe story is, that the Princess inheritsher moth
er’s quick and imperious temper, and the two
women had such frequent quarrels that the
peace of the royal domestic circle was quite
destroyed. The marriage of tho Princess and
her residence elsewhere being the only resource
in the emergency, a certain number of young
noblemen were selected and invited to Windsor
Castle, and the Princess required to choose a
husband from among them. She obeyed, and
her choice fell on the young Marquis, bnt there
was no more love between them than usually
attends such business-like arrangements. The
result has been, that the Princess’s temper is as
bad as ever, only it is exercised on a new object.
The exclusion of the Marqnis from the royal
circle, and the consequent separation of him
from his wife on state occasions, is said to be
owing to these conjugal differences, and not to
any law of etiquette. It is even reported that
not long ago the Queen was sent for, and went
down to Claremont, the residence of the young
conple, to prevent a complete rupture. All this
accords so well with what is known of the rela
tions between Victoria and Albert that it is
probably true.
Eccentric Request.—The daughters of the
late Henry Morris, of Philadelphia, have lately
received a legacy of bonds and stock shares
amounting to £19,000 from a Mr. Horatio Ward
an American, long resident in London. The
will says:
“As these ladies are tho grand-daughters of
the celebrated Robert Morris, of the Revolu
tion, it will not be difficult to ascertain their ac
tual residence. It will doubtless surprise them
to get a legacy from a person they never knew,
and, perhaps, never heard of; therefore, it
seems but proper they shonld be informed that
the bequest is made through compassion for
their misfortunes, and in return for the kind
nesses shown me by their father when I was
a boy; and it may bo as well that Miss Amelia
Morris should be informed that it was I who
sent some money to her and her younger sister,
under the name of ‘her father’s friend,’ a few
years ago.”
Mr. Ward also devised $100,000 to the Na
tional Soldiers’ Home, in State bonds. He also
gives $100,000 in railroad and Southern city
shares to the various Soldiers’ Orphan Asylums
in the United States.
Improvements in Chattanooga.—There are at
present in the city erecting and undergoing
completion six fine dwellings, at an average cost
of $1,000 to $6.5,000; eighteen stores, all brick,
three story, at an average cost of $5,000 to
$90,000; tho new postoffice building, $10,000;
new Methodist Church, $15,000; Union depot,
$50,000; gasworks, $70,000; opera house, $16,-
000; new hotel, 150,0000; total $600,000.—Daily

Chills and Fever seom to bo the order of the day,
but such is not the case with those who take our
Tonic Liver Bitters.
In our Southern climate, the system is constantly
absorbing malarious poison, the first effects of
which are to stnpifythe Liver; costiveness oomes
next; coated tongue, dull feeling of langor, head
ache—soon to be followed by a chilly seneation and
burning fever. To prevent this, keep your Liver
stimulated with some good vegetable medicine, and
the TONIO LIVER BITTERS is better for it than
anything. Incorporated in it are Cinchona Bark,
Gentian and othor valuable vegetable tonics.
Tho doso is from a tablospoonful to a wine glass
full two or three times a day, or often enough to
produce a healthy action on the bowels. The Bitters
should only be taken when you need them, and
your feelings will tell you when.
Sold by dealers generally, at $1 for large bottles.
