Telegraph & Messenger SUNDAT MORNING. OCT. 29, 1871. The Fair Attendance. The comspondeiit of the Saranaah »"• say* that on i he 26th “the crowd wm even Urgor then el the loir of 1869." The throng on that day wee very large, hot on ono of the day* to 1869 it wee hardly lees than forty thousand. That wee the first fair for many yeete, end a novelty—and there were no other fair* nearly eontemporeneona to diride the attraction. Bat, MTertheleaa, the alter dance last week was Tory large, and-what to bettor, the viritora all ap peared to be perfectly e ttofled with the provis ions for their comfort’and enjoyment They were all good natnred—ell polite and friendly— —ell duly sober—net a ease of drunkenness vis ible, and to respect to general appearance and demeanor, all that could makes patriotic Geor gian proud. A correspondent of a New York paper who to going Iho rounds of the Fall Fain —commenced in Lowell tost September, end will finish st the Louisiana Fair to New Orleans, on the 181b proximo—says the beauty of the ;.qi,. the decorum, order and intelligence of the whole assemblage and the taste and judg. ment displayed to the buildings and grounds are not only unexcelled, but be thinks so far unequalled. |M The Chi ante HMMicr--. If the Chinese were only black instead of yellow, the Californians might be in some dan ger of a martial tow and Ku-klnx oommittee raid. The proceedings at Los Angelos, last Wednesday, were dtcidediy unpleasant. A fight arose between two of the celestials to the Chinese quarter of that town, and it to said of. fioers n arrosto wore filed upon by China- men. Tom was the signal for a row which 1,^—1 -11 day. The mob arose five hundred strong-yslnst fifty Chinamen e-agave them no quarter. Fifteen of them wer^ hung and the remainder killed or frightfully beaten, or other- wise maltreated. Among the killed were a wo man and a little gliL Leek to Tour Follefes. The recent calamity at Chicago demonstrated one fact beyond nil cavil. That is, that imre ranee to the sheet anchor of commercial and in doatrial prosperity. All the sefforers who were forlnnate enough to linvo their policies written in substantial sad reliable incorporations, bad thalr claims adjusted sad paid without delay, and ire already preparing for their u'ual trans actions. Among the valuable experience de rived from tbi* dreadful ordeal, one of the im portent features is the fsot that those organiza tions doing a general business, carefully di;» rib. nted and disrrretly scrutinized, are much str. ng er and infinitely more reliable than those doing a local husineaa. Indeed, all tho ineorpattona foroed Into liquidation by the Cbieago ocenr- ronoe, were of tbo character last refered to, while the former paid every dollar of their lie bUitiea promptly. Take, for example, that sterl ing organization so favorably known through out the whole country—Tux Uoterwarrens’ Answer or New Voax, which to composed of tbo four leading corporations: The Ilanovor, Ger mania, Niagara and Uepnblie Insurance Compa nies of that eity. The total losses of this con federation by the Chicago ordeal, were nearly 91,000,000; yet no thoroughly are their affairs managed, and so perfect is their system, that as early as the Thursday after the fire their agent was on the ground cashing their liabilities, in many cases without evon going through the formality of adjnstment; and after the total loss was paid, dollar for dollar, they bad intact bosldea their nnited capitals of 92,600,000 n cash surplus of 9600,000. This simple illustra tion of the veins of this system, even under almost any conceivable contingency, affords ample evidence of its vast superiority. Onr cit izens am aware that Henry L. Jewett, Eiq., a gentleman whose reputation as an experienced anil always reliable underwriter is second to none other, to tho Macon representative of tho New York Underwriters’ Agency. Nrwerarxn Jrniutz.—'Very few papers, re ligions or secular, now published, have been in extotenoe moro than a quarter of a cen tury ; bnt the New York Observer announces that it will enter upon its fiftieth year in Ibe beginning of 1872. It was established as a re ligions paper; giving, also, the most important aecnlar newa; and it has been one of the ablest, and at the asms time, one of the most successful journals in the country. The publiehen announce for the coming year, aa a free gift to each of their subscribers, a New Year-Book; containing a vast amount of infor mation in regard to church end State, end ail important business affairs, a real encyclopedia, each aa any intelligent person wishes to have alwaya at band Specimen copies of tho paper and piospeclnsof the year book, sent free to all who will apply. New subscribers will receive the psp.T free uutil January 1st. Tux GnxzT Sr. Gormsn Tuncti, through the Alps will aoou lie commenced. Th j tunnel will be about tbo same length as Out through Mont Goals. Tho amount of capital necessary to build the tnnncl and connect the railway with other linea la estimated at thirty seven millions of dollar*. Of Oua, Germany, Italy, aud Switzerland have together farniabed by subsidy seventeen millions; thirteen millions will bo raised liy the issue of bonds, and seven millions by the sale of oapiul stock. l eech capitalists hold aloof from the enterprise, as calculated to damage the interacts and influence of Franoe. Tux ban Doxnsno Atofxxanotr p’ot to earned on with a high hand. According to advices from that “bister Republic,” tho President has given unconditional assurances of speedy an- noxation—and a fleet of six armed vessels of the United States army carry instructions to back Boor against tho world. The instruction! which Secretory Boboon has at different timet iaaued to our naval officers in the waters of Ban Domingo, And which are still in force, are ae follows: “Afford countenance and assistance to the Pomlnioan people against their enemies now on the island and to revolution against the lawfully constituted government, and nee the force at jour command to recist any attempts to invade the Dominican territory by land or sea. “This government to determined to protect the present Dominican government with all its power. Use yon fore# to give it the most ample protection against any poster attempting to in. terfeie with it If the Haytiana attack the Dominicans with their ships, destroy or capture them. “Whilo your force is temporarily redneed, 5? ,i n#w !r ^Stance to protect the interest of President Baez, and conform as far as possible to his wishes." I'nlrnppy South Carolina. The partisan rancor which to now overturning all civil order to South Carolina is inflicting the severest pecuniary damage upon that oppressed people. At the very moment when the tax gatherer to most clamorous for an extraordinary portion rf their snbstanee, labor haa ceased and the crops aro rotting nngathered to the field. The story of these calamities is most pitiful. Bat pecuniary looses hardly deserve mention in comparison with the loss of all personal seen- rity. Every man in those ostracised oonnties to at the mercy of whoever owes him a grudge. No charge will be made which cannot be proven by any desired cumber of witnesses, and as the negroes will have the ear of the court, convic tion becomes a moro question of will. Scroggs, Titus Oates and tbe meal tnb plot trials are re vived on a larger and improved scale. Bat where is this business to stop 7 Injustice breeds injastioe—and wrong breeds violenoe. How long will it take to harmonize society to South Carolina on a basis of expsrte trials and convictions through negro testimuny ? Let ns suppose that tbe administration to successful to all its measures—that the whites nre fined and imprisoned by hundreds—that Radicalism and Africanism, hand to hand, run riot over ail South Carolina, and while the storm of persecu tion lasts the whites are driven by scores into exile and concealment—or move about with bated breath and palsied arms and tongues— whet then? What has been accomplished? Nothing bnt mischief.' This system of terrorism cannot bo perpet- l\ The memory of wrongs perpetrated under it will for transcend its extotercs; end the deadly fends it will engender may exist for gen. orations. All these proceedings will only ^grovato the evils they purpose to remedy. The entire policy of the Radical party from first to lost—which seeks to play upon hostility of race in order to secure party possession of the ne groes—to fraught with untold evil to the latter. Thu negroes can accomplish nothing for them selves except to harmonious co-operation with the native white population of the South. A policy which sets aside all the ordinary machi nery of publie justice and employs tbe negroes as familiars, spies and informers and witnesses against their employers, must be inexpressibly vicious and mischievous to all its consequences. Every philosophical statesman most admii that so great a social revolution as has been wrought to the South ly external force, mast necessarily leave temporary agitation and dis turbance behind it It could not bo otherwise. Tho.wosder to that this disturbance, from so great a shock, has not bean greater, instead of lees. Now whet is tho care ? Let tbe waters settle of themselves, by tbe natural force of gravitation. Tbo great law of necessity and interest was operating day by day, with silent, but irresistible energy, tore-adjust conflicting Ideas and prejudices. What was needed was hands off.” Bat this might have identified the two races too closely for tho purposes of radicalism. The sympathy might have run into polities, and the negro vote might have been divided, and bence the Ku-Klnx enginery to ro-agitalo the waters of strife and division. ThU9 tho whole Radical nytem is equally and fatally at war withthe best interests of both races. It demands division, segregation and discord. Its greatest enemy to peace, and social harmony.

From the recently published work by Dr. Stephenson on tbe geology, mineralogy, etc., of tbe State, we take the following interesting account of the diamond mines of Hall county. Many of our old eitizens will recognize tbe sin- tnlsr adventure related by tbe author of Dr. [rfiyd, tbo whilom proprietor of the Washington Hall, in connection with tbe diamond hunting to that valuable section of our State: Running parallel with tbe marble is the im. menso ledge of itaeolumite, or elastic sand stone, tbo matrix of tho dismond. It extends throughout the country for thirty miles, and in every gold deposit, or branch mine near it, have been found splendid diamonds by the gold washers, who being totally ignorant of their nature or value, either lost or destroyed most of them. Some were sent to Europe to be cut and aet in jewelry, but most of them were lost. Borne of them are still in the hands of the finders, who keep them as momentos. in their rongh state. Being entirely ignorant of their nature or vaine, none were picked np but snch aa were without incrustation, which, in Brazil and Goieonda, amounts to only tbe one- tenth part of tho whole product. Fonr.fi/tha of all the diamonds fonnd to any country are small and only fit for mechanical purposes— in general, being less than half a caret, or from one to two grains. Tbe carat is a fraction less than fonr grains (three and ons-sixtb), but in all estimates end soles in tbe mines tbo carat to put at four grains. It originated from the use of tho seed of a plant in the East Indies, in tbe sale of diamonds. This berry, which grows only in that region, though not very accurate, answered the purposes of the ssmi-civilized In dians for several thousand years. The yield in Brazil, for forty years, from the labor of from thirty thousand to sixty thousand hands, ranged between one tbonsr.nd and twelve hundred oncces. Of this large amount they rarely found more thou three or four, and never moro than ton, that weighed more than thirty carets. These facts strongly confirm tbe opinion that, when developed, Hull cunty will be t rioh in diamonds as Brazil, and contain even . larger per cent of sizable ones of the first water. In washing for gold, all the large ones would, from the construction of the machines, necessarily bo lost or thrown away with tho quarts gravel with whioa they are i ssoetoted, und only such os passed into tho rifflers, with the grains of gold and fine sand, won’.d bo found in the nannir s, after the day’s work was done. All of those found in Hall county were thus found. Weighing from two tors carats, sqme few less, and three were of large size. One of these, as before stated, was broken np to see the cause of tbeir lustre, by the ignorant min- era. Another was nsed for years, by the boys, as a “middle-man” to playing marbles; and the largest one by for was lost by Dr. Loyd, who was employed to oversee thirty negroes in work ing the Glade Gold Mine, a deposit twelvo miles northeast of Gainesville. Daring the fonr years hs was employed, he picked out of the sands of the pannings for gold every night, after tho day’s washing was over, about half a pint of pretty atones, whieh be gave to his wife, who pat them in a mustard bottle in an old cupboard, except such as the children took a fancy to, which were generally lost. When the bottle was fall, she made a little bag and pnt them into that for fntnre amuse ment. Some of these, from their size and re puted lustre, must have been worth from twenty thousand to fifty thousand dollars. Bat the “big one” was fonnd by himself whilst worktoj to the pit to the piece of a tick hand. He sail that about tiro hours by sun (he had no watch), while raising a gravel he found a stone just like the little once, except that it was bright and shining only on one ride, the other side being covered with a crust of brown stuff. It was abont the size of a “guinea egg.” Being hard pushed to keep the wheelbarrows filled with gold gnvel, so os to furnish grit for constant washing, he laid it on the bonk by a gum tree, which stood olose by, nntil night, when he in. tended to take it np to the cabin and give it to five evidence that the Governor has practiced a fraud upon the State by endorsing and deliver ing bonds before tbe road was complete. And by application to the proper officers we find that $.1,300,000 of the endorsed bonds, by order of tho Governor were signed, sealed with the great seal of tbe State, registered end Fort Volley.

The attractive figure which Senator Schnrz makes in American politics, the delivery of bis speech to a large audience* last night, and its publication in the papers this morning, will ren der a brief sketch of his romantic career inter esting to onr readers. Carl Schuiz was born at Ltblar, near Cologne, Germany, March 2, 1829. After a full course of studies in tho Gymnasium of Cologne, he went, in 1846, to the University of Bonn, where be studied history, philosophy and tho ancient languages, until tho outbreak of the revolution of 1818. He took an active part in the prevail- eral newspaper, the conduct of which devolved wholly upon Schnrz in consequence of Kinkel's absence as a member of the Prussian Legisla tors. An unsuccessful attempt to produce an insurrection at Bonn, in 1819, obliged both Kin- kel and Schnrz to flee to the Palatinate, where Schnrz joined a body of revolutionary t oops and participated in the defence of Basindt. On tbe surrender of that fortress he concealed him self three days and nights, withoat food, and finally, escaping through a sower, made his way across the Rhine, arriving in Switzerland in Angn't, 1849, where he remained in Reclusion till tho following May. Kinkel was captured, condemned to twenty years’ imprisonment, and rbnt np in tbe fortress of Spsldan. After a long correspondence with the wife of his imprisoned compatriot, Schnrz undertook his rescue, made his way secretly back to Germany in May, I860, and, after three months of preparation, sno eecded. On the night of November 6, 1850, Kirkel'a cell was broken open, and he was brought to tho roof of the prison and safe- ly lowered to the ground. The fugitives escaped the same night across the fron tier and arrived at Leith abont December 1. Schnrz lived at Paris and London as a newspa per correspondent till 1852, when he married in the latter eity and emigrated to America. After spending three years in legal, historical snd po litical studies in Philadelphia, he settled in Mad ison, Wisconsin.
