Telegraph & Messenger. 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 education, offers the Capitol and Executive Mansion at Milledgeville to which 6he has no title, and worse still which already belongs to the State. 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. FEW ADVERTISEMENTS House and Lot for Sale. A FIVE-ROOM Cottage formerly owned by Mrs, Henry G.
