Telegraph & Messenger. TUESDAY MORNING. AUGUST 8, 1871. Will Not Come. Tho Richmond Dispatch, of Friday, contains a lottor from Rev. Dr. Carry, of that city, dated the 1st instant, and addressed to Rev. Dr. Land rum, nt Savannah, declining to accept tho po sition of President of Mercer Univorsity to ■which tho writer was recently elected. We will publish the letter, entire, to-morrow. Or Corn.se.—Mr. Edwin J. Scott, chairman of the committee which was appointed by the Sonth Carolina tax-payers’ convention to inves tigate tho transactions of the financial offices of the State, reports that Mr. Parker, State Treas urer, refuses to let his books be examined. The Stale Comptroller and other officers offered to furnish every facility in their power for tho ex amination of the books and papers in their offices. Parker has evidently not cooked np his figures for honest inspection. Ho hails from Boston, and landed at Charleston in 1865 with one small sized carpet-sack, containing a dirty shirt, one pair of drawers and socks ditto, nnd a box of paper collars. Now Mrs. P. sports the finest diamonds, and P. himself, is one of the richest men in the State. If he is wise he will keop on refusing to allow an examination of his books. A New Railway Bbake.—Tho now air brake, which is exciting so much attention among railroad men, was invented in Pittsburg. It is automatic and self-adjusting, but is directed by machinery on tho engine. This machinery con sists of an air pump and receiver, which are workod by tho movement of a hand lovor at the firo box. Pipes connect the brakes of tho entire train, and through these, by tho movement of tho lover on tho engine, the air is mado to act upon each wheel instantly. Tho expenso of this apparatus is $300 for the engino, $35 for tho tender, and $100 for each car. Fine Rains.—Good rains fell in Spalding and Putnam counties on Sunday and yesterday, and from the appearance of tho clouds tho same day, as scon from this standpoint, our neigh bors in Monroo and Jones were equally blessed. This city and vicinity had a taste of the same luxury, yesterday, substantial showers falling at intervals from about 11, a. it., till half past 2 r. m. Tho dust has been effectually laid for a season, and gardens unanimously revived. The clork of tho weather will pleaso consider him self publicly thanked therefor. Wages in Caupcbxia.—Son Francisco seoms to bo a good place to move to, if high wages aro an object. Blacksmiths got $2 CO to $4 per day; shoemakers, $35 to $G0 per month; brick layers, $4 to $G per day; cooks $20 to $75 per month and found; carpenters, trough) $2 to $2 50por day; farm hands, $40per month in snmmor; laborers, $1 CO to $2 per day; men and wives, $40 to $G0 per month and found; miners, $50; wood-choppers, $1 25 to $2 75 por cord, or $45 per month and found. Died, in Talbot county, on Friday last, little James Keenan, son of a lato well known city editor of tho TELZGBArn. Little James left Macon, on Tuesday last, in high health, to visit his relatives in Talbot county. On Friday ho was dead of congestion of tho bowels, and on Sunday was buried besido his father in Fort Volloy. Ho would havo been six years old noxt month. A Lively Time at the Home Office.—Tho World's London correspondent gives an amusing sketch of an irruption of three or four hnndrod of tho shrieking sisterhood and their male sat- telitos into tho Homo Office to demand tho im mediate and absolnto repeal of tho Contagious Disoascs Aot. Mr. Bruce hoard them out and then dismissed them with some vory peremptory robuffs. Utah Silver Obe.—Thirty thousand bags of silver oro from Utah were received at New York last week, valued at $178,000 and contain' ing an averago of forty por cent, of silver. It is shipped to Swansea, Wales, for smelting. The cost in Utah is about five dollars per ton. Cost of transportation from Utah to Liverpool flfty-flvo dollars per ton. A Populab Error.—Speaking of the marriage of Mr. Lecky to a maid of honor to the Queen of Holland, a correspondent of the Cincinnati Commercial says it shows the absurdity of some of our generalizations about nations that “a Dutch woman" should so often be another phrase for corpulence; whereas, in fact, it is rare in Holland to see a fat woman. “A I.IAR AX!) A PEPPY A Herald Reporter Interviews Nr. Davis Hnd li«*ur* Mome Flitiu Talk. The New York Tribune has an article headed “A Liar anift Puppy, sir,” wherein one of the press Jenkinses is shown up very handsomely. This Jenkins, it seems, was confidentially shown a oopy of a private letter, and immediately tele graphed its contents, which related to Mr. Da vis, to his journal, the Blatherskite. The Tri bane says: Having committed this astonishing outrage upon Mr. Davis, it was the most natural thing in the world for Jenkins to present himself to the victim and inquire how he liked it. He was not left in doubt upon that point. Jenk ins noticed, as soon as he enterd the room, that the ex-President looked unhappy; “his face seemed to be drawn together and set in a mould that expresses rather resolute endurance than contentment”—an expression, we may remark, almost always observed npon the faces of persons who are so nnfortunato as to hold interviews with Mr. Jenkins. The rebel leader instantly began to inqnire about the publication of the letter. “I saw,” says Jen kins “that he wns temporising”—which we do not exactly understand, for plainer speaking we never heard than the conversation set down in this extraordinary chronicle. Before fully freeing his mind, Mr. Davis went into the next room apparently to get a pistol, and the re porter adds the wholly superfluous remark that this was “an unnecessary precaution.” “I do not pretend to be a fighting man,” he observes, and nnloss pushed never shonld fire on a fellow being," which is a degree of forbearance almost heroic, especially in one who does not carry of Effingham county, and for a number of years a l rm -^- & 1 fa ®t> Jenkins confesses that “even ° then he would rather run away. Mr. Davis at THE tiEOKGIA PHLEfiM. Bollock is building a barn on his farm in Cobb county, the cost of which will be only $20,000. Religions revivals are progressing in the Third Baptist. Evans' Chapel, and First Math odist Churches, at Atlanta. Dr. Blake Brewster, one of the most esteemed citizens of Talbot county, died last week. Tho Talbotton Standard says of the report made to the last meeting of the Agricultural Club of that county by committees representing the various districts: In some instances a full account was not made, embracing only a part of the district » bnt the information submitted by the commitlee, it is believed, will express pretty dearly the estimate desired, Bbowing the acreage to be in favor of com in Talbot county about 15 per cent. The amount of guano used is about two hundred tons. The labor in tbeconntyis reported good, and even an improvement upon that of the pre vious year, in many instances. Up to the pres ent time, the year has not been favorablo to the growing crops, and in many of the districts, it is believed tho stand of cotton has been thinned to snch an extent, that one-half a crop, even un der tho most favorable conditions; cannot be made. Tho wheat was a half crop; oats nearly mined by mat and not mnoh rye or barley saved. The county will make plenty corn for home consumption. The general condition of the planting interest is good—not many liens given on crops. John G. Morrol, an old and prominont citizen Imported Seeds.—J. Milne has various kinds of imported tnrnip seeds—Mangel, Wurtzel and Rntn Bdga—imported direct from Ohoster, Eng land, from the Royal seedsmen. They may be found on sale at Bogg's grocery store, comer of Cherry streot and Cotton wenae, and we re- oommend gardeners to try them. Kentucky voted yosterday for Governor and other State offioers and members of the Legis lature. In the election lost year for members of Congross the vote of the State was, Demo- orats, 00,450; Radicals 57,247; Democratic ma jority 33,203. The negroes voted last year for the first time. The Cuplera in Europe.—This awf al scourge has made it appearance in Earope in two places —the south of Franco, and at Hull, England. Only one case, however, is reported at the lat ter place, and the ntmost precautions have been taken to localize it. Vnmm Beauties at Athens.—An Athens correspondent of the Atlanta Era writes as fol lows of some of the numerous F. G.'s who were there, last week, in attendance npon the com mencement exercises: As there was not a perfect orator among the student speakers at the chapel, there is not a perfect beauty either, visiting or living in Atbens. At a grand hop,, given by the stu dents at Dcpree's Hall, on Wednesday night, there were present some rare types of feminini ty. Conspicuous for tall and graceful figures, enchanting smiles and lovely modesty, weie the Misses Henderson, from Covington. There too, was Miss Mitchell, of Atlanta, with eyes of a Honn, looking into the very souls of her many admirers. Miss Lockett, of Macon, a petite beanty whose dark luxuriant hair, whose rich, rosy cheeks, whose bright vivacious conversa tion proved attractions that even the Stoic must have acknowledged. Gen. Butler and Col. French, while yacht ing at Newbnryport, Mass., a few days ago, ac cidently fell overboard. Col. French caught hold of a small boat and saved himself, bnt Gen. Bailer had to be helped out of the water, after going completely under the second time.— Charleston Republican. A signal illustration of the truth of the old proverb. We would shed very few tears over Butler’s mere death by drowning or elsewise, bnt they would fall in showers over the calamity of his cheating the gallows by any snch respec table medium of exit from the scene of his su perb scoundrelism. The Rev. Thomas H. Hanna, of Pittsburgh, Penn., has distinguished himself among his clerical brethren by refusing to exchange his $2,500 salary in the City of Smoke for a $0,000 salary gold) in San Francisco. Snch loud calls as that seldom go unheeded.—Tribute, Uh. And Dr. B. M. Palmer, (Presbyterian) of New Orleans, has distinguished himself by refusing to exchange his $9,000 per annum in that city for $ 15,000 and (we believe) a parsonage in New York city. And when he says a thing he means it—as Beast Butler can testify. its representative in the Legislature, died Last Wednesday. The blackbnrying season is not yet over in some parts of the State Ned Jones killed Sam son Favor, in Meriwether county, last Saturday night. Tho matter in controversy wash$2 coat. Mnscogeo tax returns show an aggregalo of $8,000,000—an increaso of $2,000,000 over last year. Daring tho past twelve months 104 houses have been built in Columbus, ata cost of $150,- 000. In tho snbnrbs cf tho city at least one hnndred have been built. The Snn says tho crops between that city and Opelika aro wretched. Corn burnt np, and on a majority of tho lands it will take “twenty acres to mako a bale of cotton, with a slight sprinkling of rocks.” There were over three hundred guests at the Chalybeate Springs, last week. Prof. Hunter, of Oglethorpe College. At lanta, has resigned, and will return to Athens, as principal of tho Industrial School of the University—a now department. Mr. J. G. Thrower, of Atlanta, while passing down Whitehall street, Satnrday night, on his way to organize a Good Templar’s lodge, fell into a cellar and damaged himself severely. If Mr. T. hailed from Elberton, we shonld suspect him of having thrown himself outside of several heavy doses of buttermilk. The Era of Snnday says: Chicken Lifter’s Mntnal Aid and Co operative Association, of Fulton county, is now fully or ganized with an efficient ami active board gf officers. Some of the best lifters in Georgia are members of the 0. L. M. A. O. A., and the prospect of lifting never was better. At the last regular meetiug it was resolved to keep a black book with names of all parties who did not keep poultry. Snch citizens are held as en emies to the O. L. M. A. C. A. Fatal Accident.—Yesterday evening while some wen were employed working, near the State Road shops, a bank caved in, killing a colored man named Nick Jackson, and severely injuring another. The side of a car was broken in by the slide. One of the Atlanta demi-monde swallowed an onnee of laudanum, Satnrday night, bnt stomach-pump interfered and cheated the coro ner out of his fee. An Irishman, name not given, was run over by a train on the Central Road, a few miles from Augusta, last Friday, and severely injured. Three bushels of corn, aix dollars in green backs, two pairs pants, one pair shoes, a pocket knife, one pound of tobacco and an old pistol made np the boot in a horse swap, in Wilkes county, a few days since. The Savannah dry dock, work on which was commenced in 18G9, will be finished early this week. Tho Advertiser says of it: The length of the dock is 345 feet by 80 feet top, and 45 feet bottom width. The pumps are the largest and most powerful ever used in this section of country, and are capable of throwing about 18,000 gallons of water per minute. The entrance to the dock has been thoroughly dredged, and a channel way allowing eighteen feet of approach on a spring, and from sixteen to sixteen and a half feet on an ordinary high tide. An occasional correspondent of the Atlanta Era who, that paper says, is doubtless “a Steph ens Democrat”—whatever that means—writes from Athens under date of Augnst4tb, and thus tartly refers to Hon. B. H. Hill’s address before the Alumni: He told somo great truths, but his speech plainly evinced his desire to bring prominently before the publio the principles of the “New Departure.” This political acrobat has killed himself by excessive tumbling. If he possess ed the combined intellect of Newton, Shaks- peare, and Webster, he could not inspire a ten year old Georgian with theslightest confidence. His knell has besu knolled, and he will be de cently interred with Democratic rites when tho next Legislature assembles. Want the Honorable Kobl. Toombs Knows About Tannins:—A “New Departure,’’ From the Rural Southerner.] We were pleased, a fow days since, to wel come in our sanotum this distinguished gentle man and statesman, and to converse with him for two hours. We had heard, through onr friend “Progress,” (John T. Wingfield, Esq., of Washington, Ga.) that Gen. Toombs mani fested much interest in, and devoted consider able time to, the cultivation of his farm on which he resides, near Washington, but we were not prepared to find in him the enthusiast that he is on the subject of improving our agricul ture. We did not expect to find a man who has spent almost his entire life in pnblio affairs and trusts an analytical agriculturist. But his knowledge of this, as of all other matters, is comprehensive. Suppose, General Toombs, that the South plant, in cotton only, one-half the area that she does, and devote the remainder of her lauds to grains and grasses, what wonld be the result?” we asked. “Why, in five years she would be the richest country on the face of the globe,” was the earn est reply. Editor—“Do you consider this section of the Sonth adapted to growing grasses?" Gen. Tcombs—“I do. I have never seen any regioB, either in Europe or America, where clover and grasses sncceed more beautifully than they do in Middle Georgia.” Editor—“Have you grown any grasses?” Gen. Toombs—“I have succeeded well with clover, orchard grass, and lucerne on uplands, and with herds grass on damp lands. I consider lucerne the finest forage grass that grows. It is thrifty and hardy, and makes more forage for six months in the year than any other crop. It should be sown more universally than it is.” Editor—But can the South afford to grow only half the cotton that she does? We have to pur chase such a vast amount of manufactures of other countries and other sections of our own country. Gen. Toombs—“If the South raised only half the cotton she does, she would realize as much money for it as she does for her present crops, and wonld have her provisions and stock at home besides. She would then be able to manufacture much more largely at home.” Editor—“You think, then, that every farmer should raise at home articles of consump tion ?” Gen- Toombs—“ Yes, and every man can do it, and when he does, he will be the most inde pendent of all men-’ Such was the tenor of Gen- Toombs expres sions, and who will deny their practicability? This is one “departure" from old customs that he indorses. any rate was “much bolder” when ho came back, and “would listen to nothing.” He talked along for a minute or so, and finally wound np by roaring out in stentorian tones, “You are a liar and a poppy, sir!’ I rose at once, and Baid, ‘After that, Mr. Davis, I had better go opinion in which it is needless to say the ex- President heartily concurred. And so Jenkins went. Tlie Democratic Party. It used to be a favorite pastime with Republi cans during the war to proclaim the Democratic party dead, beyond the power of resurrection. These sages of Radicalism have “changed their tude” most emphatically within a year or two. In proof whereof read the following specimen brick “ confesssiona” from high Radical author ities : The Democratic party to-day is stronger than it ever was in its history. It means now to win, and I do not say that it cannot win.—Hor ace Greeley in Vicksburg. Yon make light of the Democracy, bnt to-day, in the State of New York, there is a clean Dem ocratic majority of ninety thousand. We never did have the Irish, and now we are losing all tho Germans.—New York Times, Radical. Grant with his Kn-klnx bill thinks he can kill the Democracy. It will take more men by a million than he had at Appomatox.—New York Sun, Radical. A great deal has been said about the dead Democracy. Those who think it is dead surely never read the story of the resurrection. There will be signs in the heavens and on the earth in 1872 when this Democratic party gets its soldiers in the field.—Springfield {Mass.) Re publican, Radical. He is a fool or a traitor who expects to win an easy victory over the Democratic party in 1872, Grant can never do it with the bayonet.—New York Evening Post, Radical. They may pay what they please, bnt those who are the most confident do not know these Democrats. They aro the most dangerous when they seem most whipped. Do not put any faith in them and do not trust them. In retreat they are treacherous and often fatal.— Louisville Commercial, Radical Suicide oFa Beautiiul SouUiern Girl in New York. From tho New York PoBt of the 2Gth nit.] Coroner Schirmer to-day held an inquest in the case of Genevra D. Rockwell, alias Minnie French, a beautiful young woman of twenty- three years, who died on Tuesday at No. 120, East Twenty-Seventh street, from the effects of a pistol 6hot wound in the left breast, inflicted by herself on the 10 th instant at No. 117, West Thirty-Third street. Fidelia Rockwell, sister of the suicide, testified that she came to this city with her sister abont six weeks ago from Charlotte, North Carolina, with the intention of going to Long Branch. They first went to the Fifth Avenue Hotel, where they remained for a few days, but afterwards removed to 117 West Thirty-Third street. On the 10th inst. witness, wishing to speak with her sister, went to the room and found her lying on the bed. Genevra said that she had shot herself in the left breast, but declined to give any reason for the act, remarking that it was “a matter between herself and God.” The wounded girl was taken to Bellevue Hos pital, but in a few days was removed by her friends to the house in East Twenty-Seventh Btreet, where she died on Tuesday night. Breaking Ranks.—The Charleston Courier, of Saturday, says that at the recent municipal election, while there were only about 400 white men who voted the Radical ticket, there were 1,427 colored men who, in the face of all diffi culties, bad the manhood to cast their votes with the white race of the soil. This inaugu rates a new era in the politics of that city, cer tainly, and seenres its control for all time to come by the honest men and tax-payers who won the grand victory of last Wednesday. Apropos of this victory, the Radical organ there attributes it to a negro procession Mon day night before the election, gotten np by the trewly loyl thieves, and of which itthns speaks : The conduct of some joining in that proces sion was not only a disgrace to the party in whose interest they claimed to act, bnt it was a disgrace to onr city and to civilization itself. Good judges estimate that that one thing cost us five hundred votes! It not only disgusted many who were prepared to act with ns, but it consolidated the Conservative party. It is maddening to any good Republican to look back to the stupid bungling of that procession, which alone perhaps cost ns the loss of Charles ton. Such yells, such brandishing of clubs, such hurling of rocks and breaking of windows and fences and human skulls, such a little hell let loose by men who knew not what they them selves had at stake, surely was never seen be fore in the interests of politics within all the confines of civilization. Nobth Carolina Election.—In the absence of any definite news from this election by tele graph, we print the following from the Raleigh Telegram, of Saturday. The Telegram claims to be a Democratic paper, but joined the Radi cals in opposing tho Convention bilL It says: The election returns received in this city thus far are meagre, bat they indicate that the revo lutionary scheme of Convention has been de feated at the ballot box by the people of North Carolina. The most sanguine opposers of the movement calculate that it has been defeated by from 12,000 to 15,000 vetea. It is safe to as sume, however, that the majority against the measure, judging from the connties already heard from, will not fall chort of six or eight thousand. Saratoga Statistics.—The Commercial Ad vertiser correspondent presents the following statistics gleaned by careful observation at Congress Hall: Number of young ladies who have allowed their hands to be held unwillingly, 1,152; number do. unwillingly, 3; unmarried ladies kissed, 391; married do., 27G. TO OUR PATRONS AND FRIENDS. NEW ARRANGEMENT Having disposed of all bnt a remnant of onr Groceries, we think proper to announce that we shall not replenish that branch of our business, as we have determined to abandon it altogether. This change does not contemplate any redaction of our business, but is found necessary to encourage rather than chock the rapid growth of our business in other departments. In future we shall devote ourselves ex clusively to DRY GOODS, BOOTS AND SHOES, CLOTHING AND HATS, FURNISHING GOODS, AND NOTIONS. In our Retail Department, we shall offer Dry Goods alone. By Wholesale, we shall offer at all sea- sona the beat stock in all tho enumerated brandies to be found in this State, or Bouth of New York. We invite the attention of Merchants to an examination of our stock of Domestics and Woollen Goods, Which were bought before the lato advance, and in which wo can offer great inducements. We shall deal heavily in all GEORGIA MADE GOODS, And have made special arrangements with leading Factories whereby we shall never require more than the Factory price. We shall make a special business of CALICOES, And shall keop at all times a stock from which any size order can be filled. As we seldom fail to make good impressions on merchants who know their business, we hope to re ceive calls from many this season who have hitherto failed to do so, as our stock will be unusually at tractive, and our promptness in buying certain goods before the advance enables ua to offer some good bargains.
