Telegraph <& Messenger. TUESDAY MORNING. SEPT. 5, 1371. Democratic Cnnilidnte for Senator — 22d District, THOS. J. SIMMONS, OF BIBB COCSTT. Election Wednesday, 13th September. News Items. The Hubeioane at St. Thomas.—Tho late storm swept over tho Danish Island of St. Thomason the 21st n!L, about twenty-three hours before it struck the Florida coast a little below tho mouth of SL. Johns River. At St. Thomas it raged with such fury that not a house was left standing on the whole island, and 1 50 persons wore killed or seriously injured. St Thomas is about seventeen miles long by four and ono-half broad, with an area of about 43 square miles, and a population of 14,000 souls. Bt. Kilts, a British island not far from Bh Thomas, of a little larger area and population, is said to have met with a similar fate, in the samo storm. The Health of Queen Victobia is said to be very precarious. Her nervous system is much shattered, and she left London for Balmoral in pursuance of orders from tho Court Physicians. Overland Cotton.—Tho Montgomery Adver tiser says the first car-load of new cotton shipped North this season was sent through to Boston on tho “South and North through freight lino” by those enterprising gentlemen, Messrs. Shular & Hartwell, on Friday last. It will go straight through to Norfolk without breakage of bulk. The same paper says the cotton bulls and bears aro having a high old time. Tho bulls believe cotton will bring a dollar a pound, and the bears insist that all above a cent is thrown away. A Stbange, strango sight it is to see the New York journals now teeming with whole pagos of atrocious murders and other crimes, charging upon the poor Houth as a land of violence and blood. The Tribnno cotton estimate is three quarters of a million less than last year, and rather more if frost holds off a month. This year the shorts will all go up the spout. Nobth Carolina Cabs.—The Wilmington Journal say3 of two passenger coaches just turned out for the Brunswick & Albany Road at Wilmington, Delaware, that a similar car from the shops of the Weldon & Wilmington Iload stood beside them and beat them in- workman ship and prioo. Business m New Orleans.—The Picayune of 1st September cotains its nsual annual state ment of tho business of the year. New Orleans received last year 1,540,971 bales cotton, valued at $101,000,000, en increase of 338,538 bales ovor the previous season. Receipts of sugar exhibit a very handsomo increase, and the to bacco trade, though not as largo as at one time hoped, shows some improvement; while the trade in Western produce has not fallen off. Tho total valno of tho products of the interior ro- ceived during the year is $169,000,000, against $200,820,000 last year. Tho average value of cotton in New Orloanslast year was 141 cents per pound. New Obleans Cotton Exchange Repobt.— Tho Now Orloans Exchango issued its report for Soptember on the 1st inst. They say of Mis sissippi that the reports average a falling off of ono-half to three-quarters of last years’ crop with n favorable season and a late fall. Cotton picking is two to three weeks later. Boll worm has caused serious injury in many of the coun ties and the caterpillar is reported in eleven, with no serious damage as yet Louisiana.— Excessive rains in tho Southern, Southeastern and Eastern parishes and drouth in the North western. Condition of the crop fair. Picking two to throo weeks lator. Decrease in acreage 18 to 20 per cent EUimato of yield per acre ono-half to three-quarters as compared with last year, with a favorable picking season and no allowance of damage from worms. Cater, pillar in fifteen parishes. Arkansas.—Condi tion of crop generally good. Weather as good as last year exoept in Whito, Chicot, Woodruff, Drew, Ashley, Desha and Arkansas counties, which have suffered from too much rain. Picking generally ten to fifteen days later than last year. Falling off in cotton acreage twen ty to twenty-five per cent Estimated yield per acre from three quarters to seven eights of last year’s crop. Alabama.—Condition of crop not good. Picking two to four weeks later— exoept whero maturity has been precipitated by drought. Decrease in acreage 21 percent. The yield per acre, with a favorable fall, will be 70 per cent, as compared with last year. Geor gia.—Picking from one to two weeks later. De crease in aoreRge 18 per cent., and yield, as compared with last year, 75 per cent. Texas.— Long and continued drouth over nearly the whole State. Crops greatly injured. Picking, owing to drouth, earlier than last year. De crease in acreage 30 per cout. Yiold, with fa vorable season, one-half to five-eighths of last year. Tennessee.—Reports meager, but favor able in every reaped. The receipts of new crop ootton to August 31st, compared with previous years, are as fol lows: 1871, 22 bales; 1870, 109 bales; I860, 432 bales; 18GS, 476 bales. Wreck of the Steamship Mississippi.—The Picayune, of the 1st, contains a full report of the wreck of the steamship Mississippi on the Florida coast. She left New York on Saturday evening, the 19th nlimot, and had pleasant woather till Tuesday morning, when she en countered the storm. But not till Thursday noon did she enoonnter the hurricane in all its strength, and by night it blew with such fury as to stavo in all the cabin windows and pnt out the lights. Planks nailed on were instantly blown in. The pilot-house was blown away, the engineers and firemen were forced from their posts, and, in this situation, the ship struck at 8 o’clock in the evening. Then fol lowed a night of extraordinary terror—the ship thumping violently and thrown upon her beam ends. By morniDg the gale abated, and the ship wa3 found to be iu a cable's length of the Hillsborough Inlet about forty-three miles south of Jupiter. The passengers were put ashore by what is called a boatswain’s chair traversing a cable which had been stretched to land. Tents were pitched and they passed the night, and were taken off next day by the steamship Cortes, Captain Whitman, bound for New ^Orleans, with the loss of all their baggage, but of not a single life. The N. A. 0. C. L A. W., otherwise the Grand Panjandrum of the American Communists, as the antidote to the “deadly poison of the sub sidized American press,” will send to all appli cants “tho complete vindication of the Paris Commune, as issued by the General Council of tho I. A- W. The brethren are exhorted to ap ply for the pamphlet, ana learn what a delight ful thiDg it is to murder and bum. Butler, in bis Springfield speech, gives a very vivid idea of hi3 utter want of manliness and principle in the following: My enemies tell yon that at the Charleston Convention I voted fifty-seven times for Jeff Deris for President. I did—to preserve the Union. They tell you that every lime, but they don’t tell you that The boat I came away from Charleston on had on board a fugitive slave. Always a mean, sueakiug rascal. The Whitehouie and Chenet Contboveest. —A Chicago dispatch of Friday says there will be no confirmation in Christ Church till Bishop WhitehouBe requests Mr. Cheney to present the candidates, which he will probably not do. It shonld be understood that tho action of Mr. Cheney from the first has had the cordial sup port of bis wardens and vestrymen. At the meeting of the vestry last night, Mr. Cheney offered bis resignation for the fifth time, but it was unanimously rejected. The Tribune is out with campaign paper propositions, and is going to secure a rousing Radical trinmph this Fall on the strength of Tammany Frauds. Cotton Figures and tlie Mew Crop. The reports up to Friday show gross receipts closing tho cotton year, of 4,009,502 bales, against 2,907,909 at the same time last year. Now the crop produced in 1809, according to Hunt’s year book, was 3.154,94G bales—from which deduot 2,907,909, the current report at the end of that year, and we have a balance of 247,034 bales, which was added to it Now, from the general talk among cotton men, we shonld infer that there wonld be an excess over this amount the present year of about 75 per cent But let us add fifty per cent—say 123,- 578=370,015 bales to the 4,009,502, and we should make the crop of 1870, 4,380,117 bales. Probably it will not much overgo that amount. This would show an excess over the crop of 18G9 amounting to 1,225,171 bales; but the ac tual increase in visible snpply, as shown last week, was only 289,000 bales—showing that nearly a million bales have been disposed of in the way of increased consumption or in ac cumulated stocks of manufacturers—no doubt in both. The stocks as reported last Friday compare with last year as follows: 1871 1870 Stock at all ports 90,040 64.355 Stock in interior 10,72G 14,628 Stock in Liverpool 561,000 494,000 Afloat—American cotton. 07,000 26,000 Afloat—India cotton 647,972 493,448 1,376,738 1,092,431 Showing a general Btock excess this year of 284,307 bales, against an increase of 1,225,171 bales in tbe American crop. And now, concerning the incoming crop of 1871, we ipvite attention to the New Orleans Exchange Report, dated September 1st, and which may bo found in full in tho Picayune of that date. We have given some of the figures from this report elsewhere. They contain esti mates from the six main cotton States, which, consolidated, would show this result, allowing that we have a good picking season and the crop is not damaged by worms: Nett diminu tion in cotton acreage from last year, 18] per cent. Nett falling off in product per acre—a little over 28 per cent.—say in both 46 per cent, inevitable falling off from last year in the six principal ootton States, with a propitious fall season, and with no damage to tbe crop from insects. The cotton crops proper of the Caro- Iinos and Florida will not amount to 400,000 bales, or say one-eleventh of the total yield of last year, and the nett decrease on tbe whole crop shown by these estimates of the New Or leans Board would be abont 42 per cent, or say, in round numbers, 1,800,000 bales, which would show a crop of 2,500,000 to 2,GOO,000 for 1871. Our ideas run that way, too; but we shall see what wo shall behold. IVliat Senator Tkarnian Did Say. It having been reported by telegraph that in a late speech this gentleman had planted himself on the “Bourbon” platform with respect to the position the National Democratie party should occupy towards what are known as the 14lh and 15th amendments to the Federal Constitution, ho has furnished the editor of the Columbus (O.) Statesman with a revised copy of his speech, showing exactly what he did say, and here it is . Now, my friends, it has been common for tbe Republican party of this conntry to say that the Democrats have taken a new departure, and that new departure, they allege, consists in say ing that we have been wrong and the Republi cans have been right. I say there has never been any such confession as that. We are as much opposed to what has done as when we gave onr votes against it. Why, if I shonld see a man strike another in an unlawful and brutal manner, in the street, throttle him and knock him down, and trespass upon his rights, and I shonld see Jiis wounds and bruises, and see him bleeding, I shonld be compelled to say that he was down and bleeding, but who would call that a confession that the villain wbo had outraged him had done what was proper ? [Laughter.] So when these men throttled the Constitution and ruined the peace of tho conntry—when they made the South almost as ruinous as in the midst of war—we remonstrated and opposed them; and now, because we cannot deny that they have done it, because wo cannot deny that tbe thing has been accomplished, because we are compelled to admit the fact that the recon struction laws have been executed and that the amendments to the Constitution have been fas tened upon ns, we are told, forsooth, that we admit that the Radicals were right and we were wrong. That’s logic for you. If we understand the red hot theory it is, that these amendments have not been fastened upon us, and that all we have to do to get rid of them is to shrug our shoulders a few times and off they will roll; or if that fails, to just make affidavit that they are not, and have never been there nt all! A Rival Road from Atlanta —According to “Minority.” who is a very well informed gen tleman, and one who knows what is going on in this connection, the contracts have all been signed, sealed and delivered for a railway from Atlanta to Macon via Monticello, in Jasper county, (and we hope they will take Clinton, in Jones, on their route, and give that fertile county a showing which it has never had.) This is all news to ns; bnt as we said before, onr corres pondent is a man who knows precisely what he is talking abont and wonld mislead nobody in tho world. Onr correspondent wants to know which of the parties has the game in this con troversy ? We reokon it will turn out pretty much like all other fights. As far as Monticello the ronte will be in the line of the North Geor gia Road, and all parties agree that that ought to be a paying road any how. The communi cation of “Minority” will bo found elsewhere in this paper. The Yellow Fever at Charleston.—Tho Charleston News, of Saturday, says: “The fever seems to be on the wane, and has evidently been affected by the weather whioh we have ex perienced. But one death was reported yester day. Several persons who were rumored to be ill of the malady are doing well—indeed con valescent. The official report of the Board of Health shows bnt twenty-seven deaths since the 25th of July, when the fever began. Out of these twenty-seven cases it will be seen that two of them were not sufficiently marked in type to be really classed with the others. As the Board purposes publishing hereafter daily re ports of the deaths that may occur, the pnblio mind will see the real state of affairs, and feel more at ease on the subject. The report of the City Registrar is correct beyond all shadow of doubt, because no hearse-driver is allowed by law to remove a body nntil he has the doctor’s certificate, nor can a sexton inter without a similar document.” Bonaparte and ’Webster.—On the 15th Sep tember Jerome Bonaparte, of Baltimore, will be married to Mrs. Edgar, of New Orleans, grand daughter of Daniel Webster. The bride-elect is the mother of three lovely children, and is a beautiful blonde of very youthful appearance. The groom is a handsome bachelor of 40—more or less—and a grand nephew of Napoleon I. The wedding will be strictly private, and take place at the residence of a Catholic priest of Newport. The wedding dress is already com pleted, and is a traveling costume of dark gray silk, with overdress of same color. Both parties represent immense wealth, Jerome Bonaparte being grandson and heir-prospective of Madame Patterson Bonaparte, of Baltimore, Md. THE UEOUUIA I’ltUSS. Hucksters were charging -one dollars peck for peaches in the Colnmbns market last Satur day, and it was not a good day for charging, eith* The Sun says many Florida and Southwest Georgia merchants have engaged stores in Co lumbus, for the comiDg season. An operative in the Eagle and Phenix factory at Columbus named Thompson lost an arm, Friday, by having it canght in a baud. We are glad to see that Mr. Stephens, in the Atlanta Sun, denies that he is the author of the “Lost Cause” circular, and that he repudiates its doctrines and denounces it as a Radical trick Dahlonega bases its claims to the Agricultural College upon a peach weighing half a pound and measuring ten inches in circumference. For a couple of bushels of tbe same, we’ll organize a syndicate and take her claims into consideration. Randall, our ex-brother of the Augusta Con stitutionalist, is home from the Virginia Springs, a gainer by 20 pounds, and drawing well on to 190 ponnds. Such an avoirdupois as that won’t do either for a poet or a life insurance agent. William Taylor, of Randolph county, is in deep distress, owing to a decided failure he made in attempting to join the noble army of carpet-baggers. He was caught with the c. b. and contents in his hand, and now rocks himself to sleep in the Culhbert jail. The Athens Banner is telling tales out of schotfl. It says: On Wads.—The LaGrange Reporter calls the “new departure” Democrats “slack vads." We saw the editor once when he was a very tight wad! The Savannah matrimonial market is dull and declining. Only 13 whites and 28 negroes doubled themselves last-month. The Atlanta Era says the trial of the pious bnt thrifty Hotchkiss, on the charge of cheating and swindling the State, has been postponed to Ootober 6th. There are eight counties in the indictment. Probably he will wish he had stuck to preaching before he gets through his troubles. Mr. Thomas Crawford, a well known mer chant of Athens, died last Wednesday, of con sumption. The Ordinary of Muscogee county has or dered an assessment of 75 per cent, upon the State tax for county purposes, which is a de cided reduction npon last year’s assessment. We clip the following items from the last Sa vannah News: Effects of the Late Storm.—The effects of the reoent cyclone are Btill being felt on the rail roads running through the lower part of the State. Among the disasters not previously re ported are two extensive washes on tho Bruns wick and Albany Railroad, between Brunswiok and Tebeauville. Large bodies of laborers are engaged on the breaks day and night, and the utmost energy is displayed, but the disasters are of such a nature that the road will not prob ably be in running order before Tuesday—if then. There is still a serious wash on the Gulf Road at Suwanee river bridge. The river is fifty- seven feet deep under the bridge—being thirty- sevenfeet above low-water mark, and still rising. Superintendent Haines,with a large construction gang, is at this point, and pile-driving machines have been ordered to tbe scene of tho trouble. Considerable trestle-work will have to be built, and, as the water is still rising it is impossible to say when the repairs will be finally com pleted. Several days will probably elapse, how ever, beforothe road is restored to the condition in which the storm found it. The telegraph lines throughout Georgia and Florida are in good working order. The Atlantio and Gulf Railroad is carrying passengers through by making trans fers at the “washes.” Yellow Fever at Beaufort.—Wo were in formed last evening npon very reliable authori ty, that the yellow fever has broken out at Beaufort, and that it has assumed an epidemic form. The report may be exaggerated, but that the disease exists there does not seem to admit of a doubt. In this state of things, it might bo well for onr city authorities to look after a quarantine in that direction. Charleston Trains not Allowed to Ester Savannah.—Mayor Screven has notified the Sa vannah and Charleston Railroad that hereafter no cars will be allowed to run through from Charleston to this city. All trains from that place for Savannah will be met by trains from here at Yamassee station (midway,) and no per sons, cars, mails or articles of any kind will be allowed to come through. It is not known as yet whether the railroad authorities will accept this proposition of the Mayor, bnt if they do not. however, all commu nication between the two cities will be cut off entirely. The impecunious man and brother, at Au gusta. has been reduced to the necessity of de veloping soda fountains for a living. He sells it as old metal to the junk shops. The Chronicle and Sentinel, of Sunday, says: The Pennsylvania Central.—The Columbia Phoenix, of yesterday, says: We learn that the Citizens’ Savings Bank has sold the stock held by that institution in the Charlotte, Columbia and Augusta Railroad. It was a large lot, amounting to nearly 1,200 shares. This seems significant, as, we believe, Colonel Palmer i3 a Director in the railroad. Rumor has it that, with this purchase, the Pennsylvania Central— or other parties, “whom deponent knoweth not," hold possession of nearly 10 000 shares— almost a controlling interest in the Company. A meeting of the corporators of the Americus and Hawkinsville railway was held at Americus last Saturday, and organized by electing Mr- John H. Woodward, of Dooly conuty, Presi dent, and Messrs. A. S. Cutts, A. J. Lane, G. H. Hazlehurst, Sheppard Rogers, John H. Woodward, John A. Cobb, and U B. Harrold, as a board of directors. Mr. Fred. J. Clark, of Savannah, was killed Satnrday afternoon, by bis hone stumbling and throwing him into a ditch, and then falling npon him. His back was broken. We quote as follows from the Atlanta Sun, of yesterday: Bloody Affair in Decatur.—About six o’clock on Saturday evening, a man by the name of Sizemore, a shoe-maker by trade, and another man named Thrasher, a former Sheriff of Do- Kalb county, had an altercation in whioh Size more was stabbed so severely that his life is dispaired of. After he was ant he seized a stick and struck Thrasher a severe blow over the head, iuflioting an ugly wound. Thrasher has left, and onr informant states that Sizemore’s attend ing physician says there is no hopes of his re covery. Both gentlemen were citizens of Decatur, and near neighbors, and the wives of each witnessed the affray. They both fainted at tha bloody scene, and the excitement created was terrible for that unusually quiet village. We learn that a man named Fawcet was run over near Stegall’s Station on the State Road on Saturday night, and his head literally severed from his body by the cars. He was intoxicated, and two bottles of whisky were found near his person. It is supposed that he had laid down on the track and gone to sleep. Stegall's Station is just above this city, in Cobb county. The Covingion Enterprise, of Saturday, says: Attempted Assassination.—On the night of August 18tb, as William Parker and Henry Banks were sitting with some other company in a still house, in Jasper county, where they were engaged in distilling peaches, they were shot by some one bidden in tbe darkness, the principal portion of the charge taking effect on the leg and side cf Parker, and a few shot striking Banks on the head and face. Mr. William S. Floyd, son of Jadge J. J. Floyd, of Covington, accidentally shot himself through the hand one day last week, inflicting a severe wound. Dr. F. M. Cheney, of Covington, was thrown from a buggy last Monday and had his left arm broken near the wrist. The Southern Cultivator for September is at hand.
