We have no tima to hunt up tho figures. Every other spike was previously drawn—the new line marked and holes bored. Then on bnnday morning in gipy dawn, a gang of t waive to each mile being then and there pre viously posted, fell to work and finished the new alignment a llttlo aftor eleven o'clock in Ibe morning. That was the way of it speaking from memory. Tiik Sarzrr or Da. lavixosont—Sir Roder ick Murchison publishes the fallowing letter from Dr. Kirk, st Zanzibar, dated July ID, 1871: I esn, I regret to say, give no further accounts of Livingstons. Wbat last I wrote about hto visit to that little known place west of Tangan yika, is confirmed, and the Arabs from tost >iutrter seem to coant him quite one of the res idents of those jiisces. There is certainly no ill-feeling on toe part of the Arabs to him. The little jealously they seem to have shown st first lias passed off, and I sent a letter a few days ago by Ibe first caravan of too season to Uj’jl. Do not despair. The Doctor is moving slowly, tint safely; he evidently feels bis way, and is determined to leave little doubts behind him this time. Aitoraxs terrible mystery is perplexing the New York detectives, and promises to become of aa absorbing public interest as the tragedy of tho body in the trunk. On Tuesday morning, Pto inat, toe body of a young, well-dressed and beautiful lady was found on toe Long Island beach, near Cold Spring. There were evidonoes of murder and perhaps of outrage proceeding it. At the coroner's inquest nothing definite was asoertained, exoept that one of toe rings on the lady’s floger was engraved with toe initials J. II. It was surmised that tho deceased had been thrown overboard from some ono of the yachts cruising the day before in the harbor. Circnm- stonoea begin to oonnoct this tragedy with the fate of Miss Jennie nicks, the most fashionable dressmaker of Troy, who unaccountably disap peared from her home on Saturday, the 2d in stant.

They were married without too oonaent of their parents. No person over got stung by hornets who kept sway trom where they were. It is just so with bad habits. The Late Special Election Is not without a moral. The idea underlying the nomination of Mr. Tinley waa to divide to* white vote and secure a more numerous and in fluential white element to the Radical organiza tion in this region. The movement originated with the Mulatto Regency in Macon. Jeff Long was the engineer and secured top nomination, and than did hto best to rally the African legion to its support. He called a ratification ossein blage in this city on Tuesday night, and was chairman of tho meeting which waa numerous ly attended, and ho made a flaming speech in behalf of the nominee. But he failed misera bly. The opposition attacked him without mercy so soon ns be had taken hto seat He writhed and groaned and called them to order in vain. They pinned him to hi* chair and pat him through a course of (pronto which made him, for the nonoe, several shades whiter with wrath and mortification. The next day, how ever, they did Jeff still leas honor, by letting bis candidate alone severely not only in Bibb coun ty, bnt even still more in other parts of the District hook at Monroe and Pike. The charge w® that Mr. Tinley bad never been known aa a Radical—and it was true; bnt we venture to say any white nominee would not have met with a much better fate unless at the expense of thorough social, as well as political, identification with the negro Radicals. The negro politicians are very naturally tired oqt with being played in the interests of an insigni ficant white minority, and the whites who un dertake to manage them in that lino hereafter, have got to go down considerably below their knees in Ethiopoan demagoguery. The extraordinary unanimity with which, all over an extensive district of threo large counties, in a few days’ notice, witbont publication or resolution to that effect, they all with one con sent dropped Tinley into tho mud, ought to be an awful warning to men who fancy they can pander and patch up compromises and bargains for thoir own or the pnblie advantage with tbo negroes. Some have said that the price of harmonious political allianoo with the negroes to an equal social alliance. But even that is very doubtful. Ali history and experience show that the jeal ousy and antagonism of oolor pervades even the colored people, and half-breeds are proscribed by the blacks. San Domingo and Jamaica il lustrate this proposition. The white man, or white party, then, who knuckles and compro mises with negro partial and politicians will be miserably disappointed at last. The negroes will, to some extent, support white candidates. A considerable number of them voted for Simmons. But they are not go ing to support white candidates on an equality basis. Some of them will vote for whites from motives of respect for superior qualifications and position ; but wben white candidates come down to tho Afrioan basis they prefer their own oolor. The idea of a grand political amalgam is as preposterous as that of a grand social amal gam. Tho price of both to the whites wou'd be only tho contempt of the negroes. There is but ono course to pursuo. Let the whites of Georgia stand shonlder to shoulder— maintain their supremacy and exercise it right eously for toe benefit of ail. Any other course to ruinous. Think of that time apprehended by some of our best men, wben two equally divided white parties shall go into tho arena for negro votes as a floating balance of party power. Years ago there were about a hundred or so white “float ers" in Bibb who, day* before the eloction, were penned b) the rival parties and kept wallowing in whisky. Can any man contemplate any similar position for any considerable part of tbo negro voter in Georgia without horror? To havo all pub lic questions decided in that way would be horri ble. Bnt wbat amisfortnno to tho negroes them selves, and to overy industrial interest of thefltite to have that population exposed to such corrupt ing and demoralizing conditions. Wo entreat the respectable whites of this State to stand to gether—not so mnch for mere party interest as in behalf of every great intcrext of tociely, In cluding that of the negroes themselves. Kepublicau Economy. Gen. Geo. W. Morgan, of Ohio, met Senator Sherman's boasts about Republican economy and lemoning taxation, with a terrible exposo of three hollow pretences, llo shows that daring the four years of tbo war, they raised $712,000,- 000 by taxation, and in the first year of peace thereafter $619,000,000, and during the fonr years snoeaeding the war they collected $1,174,- 000,000 more than during tho four yeans of war. That since tho war there has been drawn by taxation by the Government at Washington ont of the labor and reronrees of the people, $2,. 709,000,000. Nearly double the whole amount of the entire expenditures of the Federal Gov ernment for the period of eighty years, from the first Inauguration of George Washington to the close of the late war. That oat of this vast amount only $300,000,000 of the debt have been paid' leaving $2,400,000,000 as general expen ditures. In u word, tost since toe war money exceeding toe whole amount of Ibe national debt has been wrong from toe people in taxes, and all exoept $300,000,000 gone in enrrent ex penses. Gen. Morgen says: “I will suggest a measure—a standard by wbioh you can convey to yonr own minds some idea of what too sum of $2,700,000,000 means. Citixens, from toe tima of toe inauguration of George Washington down to the inauguration of Abraham Lincoln, a period of over eighty years, toe entire expenditures of the Federal Government, including the cost of too three years war with England, the two years war with Mexico, toe thirty years of Indian wars—loss payments on the pnblie debt—was less than $1,400,000,000. And yet we find that toe men in power, in six years of uninterrupted peace— peaee at home, red peace with too world—ex torted from tho people in that brief spaco of time, $1,300,000,000 more than was expended during the entire time of our history from Washington down to Lincoln. What baa gone with this fearful sum? What has gone with that fabulous amount of money? We know wbero it eame from—from the pockets of the people; from toe toil of toe people; e industry from the i r of too poop Where has it pie. gone ? I hare called and*call again upon Sena tor Sherman to tell the people what hts become of those $2,700,000,008. He don't reply: he will not reply, because his answer, if truthful, would raise a hurricane which would sweep him and bis from power. “‘Why,’ says some one, ‘we have n great debt; we require this $2,700,000,000 to pay that debt.' Yes, my friends, bnt $2,700,000,- 000 is $300,000,000 more than toe whole debt Tbo debt is less than $2,400,000,000, and in six years of pesos Sherman and his allies have collected from you $2,700,000,000. How much of the debt did they pay ? Up to the first day of the present month of August, the entire re duction of toe pnblio debt amount' to only about $300,000,000. Now take that amount from twonty-3even hundred millions and yon have twenty-four hundred uri'tiona left What has become of it ? Whose pockets has it filled ? Whose splendid palaces her it built? Who are toe men that riot in luxury upon this fabu'ous amount of money taken from the people in toe shape of taxation?” THE GEOKtil.t PRESS. Caors in Lowndes Cocntt.—The Valdosta Times of toe 12th says that for four or five wesks past they have had almost a continued storm. Many farmers will not make more than one-fourth of a crop. A gentleman told ns yes terday, who always has a good crop, that tho late storm has destroyed one-half that portion of his crop that former maladies bad left The Tidal Wave.—The SAvannah Advertiser sounds toe alarm about that great tidal wave, and thinks it would be jast as well to be getting ready for It But how get ready? The first point in order it seems to ns, would be to ascer tain whether in Tact Agassiz ever hazared such a prediction. We have never seen it, and only read of it in the New Orleans papers. The philosopher is not at home just now. He to en gaged, if we are not mistaken, in making some explorations on toe Paciila coast Bat if ho his made any such prediction somebody must be able to put hto finger on it Let us see it, and then we oan next consider wbat practical con sequences should result from it. The Morning News of same date says: It was rumored on tho street yesterday that a special dispatch had been received from Prof. iCj, stating that tho great tidal wavo would & few ctoys earlier toon was at flratsop- nosed in consequence of vhich many of our pSpte awgoinKVihl upon the subject of high ’’'wThave heard of a great many who bare been moving np stairs, while every one argues that it will bo expedient to dwell upon the nouae- for « few dam Another preparation we seo taring made for toe memorable event is the pinning and bracing of toe Exchange portioo to keep it, at the Clerk of Conn oil informs us, from washing sway. Hero to a grand speculation for somebody. If some enterprising genius like old man Noah would come into our midst, he could make a good thing out or tola—you bet. By toe way. we understand that all the spare rooms of the Ex change have been reaerved for toe use of Hto Honor, toe Mayor, and too Board of Aldermen. John Cooper, the negro highwayman, who committed the murderous assault on toe little white boy Doooer, has been arrested and im prisoned. The News says: We learn that a white man living in this eity, whose name for the present we withhold from the public, so far forgot himself on last Sunday —forgot tost he was a man—forfeited all claims he over held to toe name of gentleman—if he ever pomcrind any, which we very mnch doubt —by getting into an altercation with hto wife, (he woman whom he bad sworn to love and protect, and cut her severely on the head with an ax, inflicting a painful, if not mortal wound. CoLCiroca Cotton Bicnro of Tuesday were fifteen bale* against 123 the corresponding day last year. Total receipt* op to Tuesday were 118 bales. Mrs. Louisa V. Mulford, wife of Mr. Darts Halford, and only daughter and eldest child of Mr. IL L. Mott, died in Columbus on Friday. Roilwat Dot.—The Enquirer learns through President McDongald that there to now a pros pect for a joint track between Columbus and Hamilton for the North and South and Columbus and Atlanta Air Line Railroads, as both corpor ations are in a fair way to come to equitable *°Dawbon Cab Woaxs.—The Enquirer saya Mr. O. O. Nelson, of Dawson, proprietor of the car works at that place, informed ns on Tuesday that he had toe contract for building about one hundred freight ears for the Bainbridge, Cnth- bert and Columbus Railroad, a number of which have already been finished. The paarenger cars for toe road are being built at Wilmington. Twelve narrow gangs engines have been ordered in New York and Philadelphia. Mr. Nelson also contemplates starting a foundry for the manu facture of car wheel* aa soon as too Montgom ery and Enfanla Railroad will open np to him the Alabama iron and coal mines. Such an es tablishment in his section will doubtless pay. The Atlanta Sun says that A. L. Harris was arrested on Saturday last on affidavit of CoL G. W. Lee, charging him aa a “common thief and swindler.” Lee alleges that property, sold by him to Harris was paid for in property of the Western and Atlantic Railroad. Damage to Mill Pbofkstt.—The Hawkins- villo Dispatch saya Dunaway’s mills, in Dooly county, were washed away last week, and this large escape of water forcing itself upon Foun tain's mills, washed away aboat twenty-five feet of toe dam between too two mills. The dam was eat on too opposite side of the saw mill, and also about thirty-five feet on that side washed away. We may expect to hear of considerable destruction to water mill property throughout toe oountry. Many thousand fish have certainly gone with the water from Fountain’s pond. Hon. Thomas Hardeman has consented to de liver the annual address to the Carters vUle Fair Association. We clip the following from the Standard of toe 14 th: Eight more new care sro now on the Blocks at the car factory. Success is now beyond - problem. The cotton crop of this section will not much exceed half of laat year's yield. A Heavy Contbact.—Wo understand too car factory have a contract for forniohing toe Noah- villo and Chattanooga Railroad with one han dled freight cars, and that they will soon bo ablo to turn out six care per week. This looks like business. _ Limn Fit OR VIRGINIA. The Tomb of Jetrcrson-'Gordonavtlle-Cul- IM-ppcr—Otlnr aroriiitalti—Condition of VI rcln!n—Northern Settlers. Awheest CotmT-HotJSE, September 1, 1871, Editor* Telegraph and Me*eenger; A few lines additional from this place may not prove uninteresting to yonr readers. I left hero a dsy or two since on a visit to Culpepper oounty. I found the Orange, Alexandria and Manassas Railroad one of the most delightful lines of travel in the whole land. Tho road is kept in thorough repair, toe can commodious and beautiful, and the conductors polite and atten tivo. The road is presided over l>y Hon. John a Barbour, a worthy son of one of Virginia’s most gifted and distinguished statesmen. Tho scenery along this lino to very attractive, es pecially in Albermarle county, whore we pass the University of Virginia, too beantifal town of Charlottesville, and Monticollo, the homo and grave of Jefferson. Many tourists visit this seat of too departed statesmen and carry away mementoes, such as walking canes, pieoes of the tombstone, etc. The Utter, which sbonld have been spared the touch of their sacrilegious hands, bos been badly mutilated and po nothing like its original beauty. On this stone may still be seen toe words, “Here lies Thomrs Jefferson, Author of toe Declaration of Inde pendence, and Founder of too University of Virginia.” At GordonviUo I found too same “intense ex istence” for which the place hss been so long noted, consequent on the meeting of too trains from Washington, Richmond, Lynchburg and Stanton. There was not, however, the profusion of “chicken lege” with which too eyes of the hungry traveller havo so often been greeted. The vendors with their big waiters crowded toe pUtfonn, so as to seriously inter fere with the convenience of toe passengers, and toe authorities issued an order that they ahonld not bo allowed to come on toe platform. Many on this account havo giyen np the business, hut still enough may be secured with small effort to satisfy too wants of the inner man. There are two good hotels, also, whore the wants of the traveling public are supplied. About two hours after leaving GordonviUo wo reached Culpepper, which has weU been s.yled a “Revolutionary county.” This was too oounty that sent forth in the old Revolutionary war toe “Cnlpepper Minute Men,” concerning whom John Randolph said in the United States Senate: “They were summoned in a minute, armed in a minute, marched in a minute, fought in a minute, and vanquished in a minute.” I met and conversed on this occasion with CoL D. F. Slaughter, a grand son of the veritable Captain Slaughter who led these brave minute men forth to battle and to victory. Leaving the ears at Mitchell's Station I visi ted the famous Cedar Mountain battle field, where Stonewall Jackson taught Pope what a convenient thing it was that hto headquarters was in tho saddle. Some of the relics of that hard fought field may still be seen, such as braised trees and battered earthworks, while a few bones may ever and anon be scon “bleach ing” in the sun. Virginia seems to be in about tho same state of prosperity aa when the writer visited it two years ago. Tho crops are looking well, particu larly the oora, but fencing is still scarce, owing the destruction of timber during the war, and labor is os unreliable os it to in tho South. The yankecs have put the same notions into the froadmen's heads as in other sections; for it was only yesterday that I witnessed in this vil lage the procession and celebration of toe “Ris ing Sun Benevolent Society,” -with toe usual liaphiy of banners, red shirts, drums, etc. A good many Northom settlers haTe immi grated to this region. Soon after tho war land agendas were established sH along toe O. Y. St IL R. IL, generally called ‘-Piedmont Land Companies,” and as prices were low, the coun try picturesque, and in many plaoes fertile, those in quest of homes came down and purchased. Several northern families are living hereabouts, and are engaged in fruit growing, w.ne making and other sudi things. Some of these immi grants not realising their expectation* are in favor of selling out and going back North. While many of them are good people, the old Virginians will donbtleas say “joy” in connec tion with the departure of the greater nnmber. A Monsisb Bihd in Oalifobnia. —Last Tues day evening abont seven o!dock, says toe Win- ouoca (CaL) Register of Angust 9, the peo ple in toe lower town were startled by the sod den appearance of a huge monster we are at a lost to know whether to call fowl or beast, not withstanding it had wings and could fly. It was certainly the biggest creature ever seen in this country with feathers. If a bird, it belongs torn giant species unknown to American orni thology. Onr attention was first attracted by hearing some one sing out, “Holy Mother, seo that cow with wings.” We stepped to toe door just in time to see toe monster alight with homelbing of a crash on the roof of Mrs. Collier's dwelling house, where it remain ed for several minutes taking a quiet survey of the land and toe astonished multitude who stood gazing at that unexpected visitor. It could not have weighed less than seventy or one hun dred lbs., with a pair of ponderous wirgs wh ? o\ when stretched out to the breeze, must have been fully twelve feet from tip to tip. Its color was that of a raven, with the exception that the tips of its wings and tail were white. An “old salt,” who happened to get sight of toe bird, thinks be must be a renegade member of too comlor family. He says he has frequently met with such *• critters” or. the coast of South America. A Bean Town.—Beverly, Ma.-Kachusetta, aaye a correspondent, isknown u-. "Bean Town.' No' virtuous citizen of that place thinks of passing Sunday morning without baked pork and lx-arm for breakfast. Formerly they went to tho dif ferent bakeries Saturdny nights, each man with his bean pot. Each pot was numbered with a check as reoeivtd and the number given to toe owner, and crowds would gather around the bakery door, Sunday morning, each man call, ing bto number and receiving his pot. Bat now they have a pottery in toe town, and each house holder has had his bean put mode to order, with his name or initials baked imo the side, audthe plan works be anti folly. Tbe bakers charge six cents for baking beans, and it is no mean source of revenue.
