Telegraph & Messenger. 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 irrigate them.” The steam power employed in the United States does the labor of 140,000,000 men, while that of Great Britain is equivalent to 490,000,- 000. Mb. E. C. Fenimore has sold from ninety acres of land, within the last ten years, near Wilmington, Delaware, peaches to the value of $150,811. 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.’’ An Irish magistrate censuring some boys for loitering in the street, said, “If everybody were to stand in the street, bow could anybody get by r THE CaKOKGlA PRESS. 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 merchant was conversing with a charming youiig lady when she said: “You gentlemen from Co lumbus must think of nothing else but business, you are always poking your cards into one’s face.” He must have been cultivating mammon as well os Cupid. The total interments in Savannah for the week ending July 22d, 1871, is 21. Of these 10 are whites and 11 negroes. Last year the number was 20. The Newnan Herald, of Friday, says the First National Bank of Newnan, Georgia, has been organized with a paid up capital of one hundred and twenty-five thousand dollars, and will commence a general banking business on the 1st of September. The Rome Commercial says -. Serious Accident.—On last Saturday as Mr. Weston was riding with Miss Martha Smith, on the Alabama road, abont a mile below Cave Spring, his horse took fright and ran away. Both were thrown from the buggy, and Mr. W. was seriously and it is feared fatally injured, and Miss Smith badly hurt. The annual meeting of the stockholders of the Atlanta and West Point Railroad, was held at Atlanta, Tuesday. The report of the Presi dent, Hon. John P. King, showed the gross revenue of the road for the past year to have been $453,715 39, the gross expenses $355,704. 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 test signed by a few of the stockholders against the endorsement by the road of the bond of the State road lessees was received and filed. The old President and Board of Directors were re-elected, as were also L. P. Grant, as Superintendent, and W. P. Orme, Secretary and Treasurer. 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. Tlie White Serfs of England. 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 Times.
