FRIDAY MORNING. AUGUST 25, 1871.
Sews Items.
Ghan't and Gbeeley.—Philosopher Greeley
etarts out west on the 4th proximo, as the Sun
Bays,ostensibly to tell what ho knows about farm
ing, but roally to cover up Grant and Morton s
tracks in the political Sold and lay open a fur
row broad and deep for himself. Tho Sun in
terviewed tho philosopher last Thursday, and
got this opinion from him:
“There is no doubt that tbero is a very wide
spread foeling of dissatisfaction with the admin
istration among Republicans. My judgment is,
that Gen. Grant has made too many enemies to
rnn—that ho is not tho candidate that can be
elected. Therefore, it is necessary to have an
other candidate.”
“Tho fact is, there is a general foeling that
the Grant family is too large.”
Tho Snn predicts that Greeloy willbereceivod
In tho West with tremendous enthusiasm, and
bis tour will bo an ovation. Shonld’nt wonder.
Tbero are millions of tho Western farmers who
bolievo that Greeley is tho wisest and purest
man of his time.
Saxe.—One night last week in Saratoga tho
gas gavo ont and tbo clamor for candles and
koroseno was ludicrous. Tho poet, Saxo, ac
cording to tho correspondent of tho Gommcr
cial Advertiser, borrowed a candle of a beanti-
fnl young lady. Tho next morning eho found
under her door these beautiful lines:
“Yon gave mo a caudle; I givo you my thanks,
And add aa a compliment Justly your dno—
Thero is not a girl in these feminine ranks
Who oonld, if eho would, hold a candle to you.”
Gen. Stokesian.—Tho ordor of tho War De
partment, retiring Gen. Stoneman, has been ro-
vokod by direction of tbo President.
Suits for Damages.—Tho Staten Island Ferry
Company which ran tho Westfield is n mined
oommnnily. Thiee of tho concern will proba
bly get a term in tho penitentiary, and already
fifty actions for damages have been announced
by relatives of the killed and injured.
Reducinq Expenses.—The Murray Hill “high
flyers of fashion,” are organizing a society
having for its object tho reduction of extrava
gance) in dress. Each membor will agree to spend
so much, and no moro on her toilette, and to
pay cash!
Now if “so mnch and no moro” were a small
snm—jnst enough to meet the requirements of
modesty and good taste, tho society should not
confino itself to Murray Hill. It ought to be
co-oxtensivo with tho national boundaries.
Early Frost.—There was a heavy frost on
Monnt Washington last Sunday morning, tho
telegraph wires being covered to the size of a
man's arm, and broken besides near tho sum
mit.
Boutwell and Grant. — Tho World says
that Boutwell has been propitiated by the
alaughter of Pleasanton—hns withdrawn his
claims for tho Presidency, and now agrees that
the nomination of Grant is a political necessity.
Tho party of the other part also agrees that it
is a “national necessity" that Bontwell should be
Soorotary of tho Treasury for another term.
A New Flour Mill.—At the late Edinburg
meeting of tho British Association of Science,
os wo see from a report in the World, a paper
was read npon a new mill, now in operation at
Edinbnrg for grinding wheat. Says the report:
This mill rednees wheat by perensaion, while
it is unsupported, and falling freely, or being
projected through the air. The wheat, in pass
ing through tho maebino, is strnck by a series
of bars moviog nt immense speed in opposite
directions. It is so instantanoonsly redneed
into a state ready for bolting that no injnrions
heat is caused, and tho flour produced is of a
mnch superior quality to that obtained by ordi
nary grinding, whilo the cost of its production
Is considerably less.
This mill works with mnch less powor—rare
ly needs repairs—requires a mnch smaller num
ber of men, and is in mnch less danger of fire.
An Awkward Blunder.—Tho London Court
Oircalar tells of a certain noblo Lord, who hav
ing jnst risen to speak in Parliament on the
army bill, received the following dispatch from
his wife: “I floe with Mr. to Dover
straight. Pray for mo.” In great agitation,
he rushed from tho House and mado for home.
When he got thero he found the Conntess, and
sternly handiDg her tho dispatch demanded an
explanation. She read it and burst into a fit of
merriment, in which her husband joined, when
ho fonnd that his wife had sent the dispatch to
tho oillco in this shape; “I tea with Mrs.
In Dover street Stay forme.”
Poor Carlotta.—Theex-Empressof Mexico.
Carlotta, it is positively stated, cannot live
through tho coming autumn, ns she now has
periods of perfect prostration lasting 48 hours,
nnd her death is expected almost any day. She
is only 31 years of age, having been married to
the nnfortnnato Archduke Maximilian when she
was bnt 17 years of age.
A. T. Stewart-—The Commercial Advertiser
says of Mr. A. T. Stewart, who has jast recov
ered from a dangerous illness, that he has been
ailing evor sinoe the death of Mr. Kellnm, the
architect. Ho was his devoted friend, and his
sudden taking off was a terrible blow to Mr.
Stewart. He felt it as keenly as if death had
stalked into his own household and carried off
ono most dear to him. At the burial of Mr.
Kellum, ho wept liko a mother at the grave of
her first born. Those who take Mr. Stewart for
a cold, heartless, unfeeling man, do not know
him.
The Three G’s.—Grant, Greeley and Groes-
beck, are tho great talked of for the Presidency.
William S. Groesbeck—a man of great wealth—
in tho prime of life—of strong parts and un
spotted integrity is pnt forth by the Ohioans as
tho ooming man for the Presidency. They
say he is the man to cleanse the Angean stables
and break np all the rings of trading politi
cians.
Health of Savannah and Charleston.—We
are glad to soe that the health reports for Savan
nah from 1st to 21st August show five less deaths
than in 1870, and four less than in 18G9. Tho
city np to latest dates was never more healthy.
Tho Charleston papers make no report of yellow
fever. Private letters to the 20th, which would
in all probability have mentioned the fact had
yellow fever been there, make no allusion to
it. We presume, if there are any cases there,
they are merely sporodic.
Cotton Markets —Cotton was buoyant yes
terday in Liverpool at an advance of an eighth.
Middling was quoted at 94. Sales 23,000 bales.
In New York the market was strong at a simi
lar advance with light sales.
Paris.—Paris reports still represent political
affairs in a very critical condition, and more
trouble imminent.
The astounding fact is stated semi-officially
that opium, prepared for smoking, was imported
into the United States, dnring the last fiscal
year, to the value of $1,928,915. Daring the
same year intoxicating liqnors were sold to the
value of $000,000,000.
Gen. Grant has been interviewed at Long
Branch. He says the New York Radical quar
rel is a mere tempest in a tea-pot, and the
Orange riots and Tammany frauds will carry the
State for him. He don t understand the New
Orleans muddle, and if the Coreaus won't treat
they must be whipped till they are ready to stand
sweetened drinks all round.
Eight hi-ndbed and eighty bales of South
American cotton were sold in New York last
Friday. ___
Law Card.—We invite attention to the pro
fessional card of Charles N. West, Esq., of Sa
vannah. Mr. West is a yonng lawyer of great
promise and has already made his mark in the
oonrts. All business entrusted to him will re
ceive prompt and careful attention.
HTmt the Itesnlt In Kentucky Means.
It has been given ont in some quarters in
Georgia that tho triumph of the Democracy in
this State at the late election meant a repudia
tion of the doctrines enunciated by the Demo
crats of the North with reference to wbat is
oommonly known as the new departure; and
inf erentially, that Kentucky would not fight under
the Democratic flag next year if it bore that de
vice. If there be any who have found conso
lation in such expectation, we beg to call their
attention to tho following from the Louisville
Ledger, the organ of the “Bourbons” of that
State. Says tho Ledger:
The word is sent abroad every day that the
“Bonrbons” of Kentucky mean to split the next
National Convention if they cannot vote down
the new departure. There is not ono word of
trnth in it. Every ono of our candidates and
speakers, while refusing to abandon the position
endorsed [by the Democratic millions in 1808,
declared his intention to vote for the nominees
of the National Convention, departure or no de
parture. That is the sentiment of Kentncky;
that is tho position endorsed by tho unprece
dented voto of the August election.
The Sweep.—Onr correspondent “P.,” in
Baker, is down upon tho so-called “Dickson
sweep” and shallow coltnro. Tho sweep is no
“new departure,” as ho calls it, bnt a very old
plough indeed. Doubtless it has its uses. Where
land is very porous and level the sweep per
haps may bo well used in laying by crops; but
npon soil of close texture which easily impacts
wo doubt whether they are of any use. Upon
hill sides and rolling lands cultivation with the
sweep exposes tho lands to washing, and in this
particular, we doubt not, has been exceedingly
injnrions to lands in Georgia. We can’t con
ceive of a proper cultivation of any crop which
does not maintain the soil in a light and friablo
condition, at least np to the point of frnitago.
Messrs. Ketchum & Habteidge.—No firm or
banking houso in Georgia enjoys a better de
served or more widely extended reputation than
tho subject of this notice. Possessing ample
capital, and great business experience, united
with courteous bearing to all, they have fairly
won the esteem and confidence of their numer-
onr patrons, and occupy the front rank among
the merchant princes of Savannah.
See card in another column.
W. EL Burroughs, Esq —This estimable gen
tleman, whose business card we publish, is one
of Savannah’s oldest and most respected citi
zens. Through a long and evenfnl mercantile
career, he has ever preserved an untarnished
reputation for integrity in all the relations of
life. An excellent salesman—those making
consignments of prodace to him cannot fail to
be satisfied with the result.
The Agricultural College—Macon in
the King.
Editors Telegraph and Messenger: Satan to
tempt the Lord, offered him wbat Satan had
no title to, and worse still what already belonged
to the Lord.
Milledgeville to tempt the State to give her
the United States lands ceded for agricnltnral

Following their example, I offer on the part
of Macon the Laboratory and'tho Armory with
one hundred acres adjoining each, and will pro
duce title to tho same os good as either of my
illustrious predecessors. Practical Farmer.
THE GEORGIA PRESS.
Wiregrass” benzine and Darwin’s pets seem
to have “bluffed” that convivial luminary of
the law, Judge O’Neal, of tho AUapapa Circuit.
The Valdosta Times says “they say” down there
he bos resigned that office, and will soon move
to Middle Geoargia.
Tho boll worm has made its appearance in
Thomas, Dongherty, Brooks and Decatur conn-
tios. .
The Valdosta Times tells this story:
It is said of ono of our Valdostians that a
few days ago, while riding on the cars, the en
gine commenced an unearthly blowing; he,
thinking that something had “broke loose”
ahead, precipitately stuck his craninm through
glass and shutters, doing mnch damage not only
to the sftsh and shutters bnt to his forehead, to
the great amusement of other parties present.
O that aching head!
The Columbus Sun, of Wednesday, synopsizes
the situation over there as follows:
The Weather, Etc—Tho city is very dusty.
Days very warm in senshino, rather pleasant in
shady places. Nights tolerably cool, requiring
cover during the late hours. Health generally
good. Some cases of fever and congostive
chills. Little cotton coming in. Bain badly
wanted on crops. Trade inactive, except to
railroad contractors. Money difficult to get.
Merchants laying in fall stocks. All who can
get away are at the watering places.
We quote the following from tho Enquirer of
same date:
Death of Mrs. S. E. Wilkins.—Onr commu
nity was startled yesterday by the announce
ment of the death of Mrs. S. E. Wilkins, who
died at 2 o’clock Tuesday morning, after a very
few days, illness.
The daughter of Charles P. Gordon, a distin
guished lawyer of Eatouton, Ga.,where she was
bom April 15, 1829, she was married Decembor
10, 1851, to Colonel J. O. Wilkins, a wealthy
planter and lawyer of Liberty county, who died
February 22, 18G0. Since that time she has
lived in Colnmbns. Daring onr lato war she
was active and untiring in her labors and devo
tion to onr soldiers; and hundreds of them are
now living who bless her for words and acts of
kindness to them, when sick and wounded.
Beautiful, amiable and highly accomplished,
she was a favorite with all; and by her death,
society loses one of its brightest ornaments,
and Colnmbns one of her best and noblest
women.
Her funeral took place yesterday afternoon
from the Presbyterian Church, from whence her
remains were followed to the grave by one of
the largest processions ever seen in the city.
Colnmbns was on short rations of ice, Tues
day, on account of railroad derangements near
Savannah, caused by the late storm.
Two boat loads of South Carolina Ioilists of
the African persuasion crossed the river, Tues
day, in order to register for the Savannah mu
nicipal election, but some policemen caused
them to change their minds.
The storm, at Savannah, Tuesday, did little
or no damage in tho city, bnt in the neighbor
hood was disastrous to rice and other crops.
The News, of Wednesday, has the following ad
ditional details of damage from the Friday and
Saturday storms:
By the immense rise in the tide on Friday
night the water was backed np on Dr. Lawton’s
dry culture land, causing a large break in the
dam. The water from the land side was utterly
prevented from running ont. Considerable
damage was done to the property. The tide
land owned by the Central Railroad, on the
river above the month of the canal, and in the
vicinity of the water works, was overflowed by
the water on the high tide backing up. The
land was formerly owned by Messrs. Giles <fc
Bradley, and is now used by the Central Rail-
load to run their river extension over. There is
a trnnk on the river bank which blew out from
the immense pressure against it, thereby letting
in a large quantity of water, and causing a con
siderable break in the river bank. Another break
occurred in the bank of the adjoining place,
known as Skelton’s place, the water running all
over the land. In consequence of these breaks
the tide in the river, which rose to a great height
backed up the water on the lands formerly
kept dry and entirely prevented the ont flow.
LATER.
Since the foregoing was in type we have
received information that the Big Ogeechee
bridge was entirely overflowed, the water in
the river having risen to such a height as to
cover the bridge, so that it is impossible for
trains to pass over it. None will leave on the
Atlantic and Golf Road until to-night. Large
quantities of rain fell last night after dark.
At eleven o’clock the rain and wind had almost
entirely oeased.
The News says:
Steamers Pot Back in the Storm.—The
steamships Catherine Whiting and Tonawanda,
bound to .New York and Philadelphia, left this
port on Saturday last for fheir respective ports
of destination ^On arriving at Tybce, both put
to sea, but finding the weather exceedingly
stormy, they both returned on the same eve
ning. They both put to sea again that night
The Catharine Whiting returned to Tybee Mon
day, where she was still lying at anchor yester
day. The Tonawanda did not return, but con
tinued on her voyage.
A married woman whose name is not given,
attempted to commit suicide in Savannah, last
Sunday, by taking laudanum.
Mr. William Brad, in a fit of mental abstrac
tion, on last Saturday put $131 in greenbacks
belonging to Mr. H. P. Brewer, of Effingham
county, in his pocket, and rode off on Mr. B.’s
finest mule. Mr. Brewer thinks a dose of double-
barrel shot gun will cure such fits.
We clip the following items from tho At
lanta Snn, of yesterday:
Yesterday, Isaac P. Harris, Treasurer of the
State Road under Foster Blodgett, and B. W.
Wrenn, the General Passenger and Ticket
Agent under the same administration, and still
holding that position under Gov. Brown, were
arrested. Both were charged with larceny after
trust. They waived an examination, and each
gave bond in the snm of $10,000. We learn
that Mr. Harris admits that he has money in bis
hands belonging to the State, which he is ready
to pay over to any one properly authorized to
receive it, and has been ready to do so ever
since the lease, whenever he can, by so doing,
have his bomlsmen relieved. We are are also
informed that Mr. Wrenn makes the same or
similar statement.
Sad Affliction.—We saw a telegraphic dis
patch yesterday from Col. Warren Aiken, of
Cartersville, to CoL Prather, of this city, in
which he says that two of his children had died
that morning with something like diptheria,
and a third one was hopelessly ill.
Paid into the Treasury.—We learn that Mr.
C. P. McCalla, the General Book-keeper of the
State Road, has paid over to tho State Treasu
rer several thousand dollars of restitution money
which has lately come into his hands.
Gov. Bullock.—Wo learn that he will return
to this city on the 1st of September. We are
glad of this. Ho is needed here now, and ought
to have been here for the past three months.
•He could have been of great assistance to those
employed in working up cases of State Road de>
falcation.
. Jas. Alexander, charged with murdering
negro convict at Atlanta, last week, has been
been committed to jail to stand his trial at the
next term of Fulton Superior Court.
The Constitution, of yesterday, says:
Settled.—Judge King, of the Georgia Rail
road, and President Wadley, of the Central
Railroad, in connection with other railroad of
ficials, on Tuesday, we learn, finally settled all
the differences about the Union Passenger
Depot, and this building will now be pnt in
comfortable condition.
The Athens Watchman says tho drought in
that section still continues. Crops and veget
ables of every description are burning np, and
poultry, butter and eggs getting scarce.
Gov. Bullock has ordered an election for Sen
ator on the 13th of September, in the district
composed of the counties of Dooly, Wilcox, Pu
laski and Dodge.
The Hawkinsville Dispatch of yesterday says;
The Murder of Mr. Joiner, of Dooly—Some
New Facts.—From a very reliable source we
have obtained the following additional particn_
lars of tho recent tragedy in our neighboring
county of Dooly: It seems young Devereux was
quite a self-willed character, as well as a great
spendthrift, as is the case with too many of our
young men who have been raised in opulence
and idleness. A short time ago he visited Ma-
cod, and to obtain funds to gratify his whims,
he forged a draft on his mother and step-father
for one thonsand dollars, which he obtained
from one of the city banks and squandered be
fore returning home. Soon after returning
home his parents received from the bankers in
formation of the transaction. His mother made
a hasty visit to Macon, and had an interview
with the pirties who furnished the money. She
promised to .make good every dollar of the
amount as soon as crops were gathered. This
was satisfactory, ondMrs. Joiner returned home
and informed her hnsband of what she had
promised. He replied that he would not pay
the amount, and that no part of the crop should
go toward the payment of the debt. Devexeaux
then borrowed, or bought, a pistol and killed
Joiner as has been heretofore stated.
IN
AT
Bloody Row Between Federal Soldiers and
Neoroes.—From the Wilmington Journal, of
Wednesday, we clip the following:
We learn from passengers on the Wilming
ton, Columbia and Angnsta Railroad that
bloody riot occurred at Marion, South Carolina,
between the Federal soldiers and negroes on
Monday evening abont eight o’olock. There
had been for some time ill feeling between
the negroes and the soldiers of the garrison,
which terminated Monday night in a regu
lar battle. Fire arms were used on both sides.
Six or seven negroes and ono soldier were
wounded, soma of the negroes very badly,
probably fatally. The white citizens of Marion
held aloof, and the riot was confined entirely to
the soldiers and negroes.
