A Cnzar Uacntna.—In oar Uilledgeville let ter yesterday, the type setter left ont an nengbt in the figures showing whst had been tho oust of fifteen days’ sessions of a constitutional con vention in this State. The writer put it down $45,000, bat the printer made it 94,600. Of ooorse the misnomer wee obvious to every one. Toa Cincinnati Times says tho H.a. William Williams, of Indiana, has disposed ol his “back pay." He has boon boarding with an excellent lady for about thirty years, and having over been handsomely treated by her, and at cheap rates, ho haa tnmed over the whole sum to her. The lady’s name Is Ura. William Williams. Tax Journal of Commerce praises a remedy for cholera which wav originally published in The Sun, and was known as The 8an cholera mixture. This remedy ia composed of equal parts of tineture of opium, red pepper, rhu barb, peppermint and camphor. Ten to twenty drop* of the mixtnre in three or fonr teaepoon- fola of water ia a dose, and the Journal com mends it to the poople everywhere, advising them to take it whenever they have occasion. A raw weeks since a oitizen of Louisa oonnty, Virginia, named Nathan Johnson, died. On opening his will directions were found to look nnder tho front 6teps of his bonse for 6omo bnried money. Tfie sum of $12,500, in twenty dollar gold pieces, was found buried in four tin boxes. Daring the late war the county of Louisa was raided on by the Federal troops sev ers) times. On one of these occasions Ur. Johnson sent his servants ont to watob tho sp- proaebing manralers, and took ooeaslon mean while to effeotnally conceal his funds. On* of the moat curious strikes on record has just oocnrrod in 8t Louis. On the editorial suit of the Gorman newspaper, the Amerika, ia a gentleman named Regeneur, whoso hand writing ia raid to bo a wonder. For a long time the compositor* in tho Amenka offloe puzzled their braina to the vorge of diatraotion ia their efforts to decipher this gentleman's manuscript without complaint; but at Iaat, driven to deeper* tion, they appointed a committee to wait on the proprietor of the Jouraei, with the request that in fntnre they should bo paid a prioo and a belt foe patting Mr. Regonaur’e copy in type. Tho request was refused, whereupon the compositor* atroek in a btdy. A CmxXi* newspaper ia to be started in San Franeiseo. It appears that the eix Chinese companies In that city have dabbed together and determined upon this enterprise, and* steamer wbieh railed for China two week* ago took ont an order from thtm for one million typo—Chinese characters—to be used in stock ins the effioj. Their plan is to pnbllsh the paper three time* a week, it* chief object being to instruct their oonntrymen in their own lan guage as to their right* and wrongs from the time they land on American roll. The first namber ia promised in September next. We hsv* newspapers in this country published in almost every language, but this, we believe, is the first journalistic venture in China. Tux New York Commercial Advertiser, a newspaper that u, at times, both witty snd wise, thne comments on the statement that many “relics of bar*»rism” are still lingering in society. “We ought to be thankful," «J* oar wade-awake cotempo-*ry, “for the variety they afford ns. The age Is s.ffocatcd with civ- ilixitlon. It has unsettled the ‘^eet content ment' of married life by the blautuhnaents of divoroe laws; R haa robbed hont»ty 0 f its manly port, and sent it crippled anaii mp ing throughout the land; it has dulled the trifle of pnblio virtue, and made all men slaves to-ue Inst of riches; it has raised false standard* u society, religion and polities, and it has jostled jastioe to the brink of creation, rna dropped it over into New Jersey.' If relioa of barbarism are selling cheap, give ns more of them.” Tni gentleman who does the epithalaminms for the Atlanta Herald, had better look to hia laurels. There is a genius in Memphis who get* up obituary notices for one of the local pa pers, who ia fast treading on his heels. Here ia a sample of his powers. He is speaking of a reoently deceased infant, and informs us tha t “she rose os a star and beamed luoently with a meteoric resplendency along the hoxixon of her parent*, lightening their pathway with Ibe sheen of hope." Farther we are told that the little babe was “a gentle roes, whoee\ernsl freshness Impregnated the perecta. heart «iih its fr.- grance of love blow.ug sweetly in the bosquet fiowara that garlanded thei bapptnese." male's Rights Reasserted. Judge Ward Hunt, of the Supreme Court of tho United States, tho successor of Judge Nel son, appears to be a very decided Bute's rights man. In laying down the law in the case of kilns Susan B Anthony, tried at Canandaigua, New York, a few days ago, for bsving violated the law in casting a vote in the election in Naw Vork last fell, Jodge Hunt held, among other propositions, the following: S. The right or privilege of voting ia a right or privilege arising under the Constitution of the State, and not of the United States. If the right belongs to any particular person, it ia be- oanae anuh person is entitled to it an a citizen of the Stale where be offers to exercise it, and not because of citizenship of the United States. If the State of New York should prondo that do person should vote unUl be had reached the age of 31 years, or after he had reached the ege of 60, or that no person having gray hair, or who bed not the possession of all his limbs, should be entitled to vote, I do not see how it conid be held to be a violation of any right de rived or held nnder the Constitution of the Uoited States. He might say that such regula'ions were uejusf, iyrran- nicj, anfit for the regulation of an in telligent State, but if the rights of a citizso are thereby violated, they are of that funda ments! class derived from bis position ay a oiti zen of the Slate, and not those limited rights belonging to him as a citizen of the United States, and such waa the decision in Cornfield ve CarryeiL If the Legislature of New York •boald require a higher qualification in a voter for a representative in Congress than ia re quired for a voter for a member of the Assem bly, this wonld, I conceive, be a violation of a right belonging to one as oitizen of the United States. Tb&t right is in relation to a Federal enbjret or interest, and oan be guaranteed by tbe Federal Constitution. The inability of a Slate to abridge the right of voting on account of race, oolor or previous condition of servitnde, is a Federal guaranty. Ita violation would be the denial of a Federal right—that is, a right belonging to the olaimant as a citizen of the United States. Thia right herein exists by vir tue of the Fifteenth Amendment only. If the Fifteenth Amendment bad contained Iho word “«ex” the argument of the defence wonld have been potent. She wonld have said an attempt by a State to deny the right to vote because one 19 of a particular sex. Is expres-ly prohibited by that amendment. The amendment does not oontain that word. It is limited to race, color or previons condition of servitude. 4'h. Toe New York Legislature haa seen fit to say that the fracobise of voting shall be limited to tbe male sex. Not only does this section asanme that tbe right of male inhabi tants to vote waa the especial object of its pro tection, bn! it assumes and admits the right of a State, notwithstanding the existence of that danae nnder wbiob tbe defendant claims to the oontrary, to deny to any of tbe male inhabitants tbe right to vote which is allowed to other male inhabitants Tbe regulation of the suffrage ia conceded to the States as a State’s right. The New York Express regards thia as “some* thing positively refreshing,” and adds t “The Judge who succeeds Jodge Nelson, seems to be imbned not only with some of the old-fashioned ideas of hia predecessor, bnt to state them with a force and logie that proves their correctness. States then have righta of their own, and one of them is tbe right to aay who shell vote, and New York having raid who shall vote, it is not in the provinee of the Federal aonatitntion to change the use of this right Snoh a deoision, in the faoe of what we have seen and read for many years poet, comes to na like good news trom a far country, or oold water to • thirsty soul.” Tbe Cholera fa Tennessee. In Nashville, according to a dispatch received at Knoxville, pbysiciana say cholera has modi fied to tbe form of a flax whlob is giving a good deal of trouble. In Chattanooga, on tbe 2G:b. there were many cases of cholera and seven deaths. The day before there were three chol era dealbs. Diarrhoea waa almost universal, and tbo physicians complained that tbe nte of opiates to oheck it rendered reaotion impossible in cholera cases Tbe nnmber of cholera deaths so far in Chattanooga has been tbirty-fonr. In Greenville, East Tennessee, two deaths and two hopeless cates were reported on the 25th. In Knoxville, only one death Is mentioned by tbo Press and Herald of the 25th—that of Mr. R. H. Brown—a oorpolent man—who bad been eating recklessly of vegetable* and fruits—hail over heated himself and drank immoderately of Ice- water. Tbe Frees and Herald claims that there is no cose of real oholera in Knoxville. Utilizing Sewerage. Tho New York correspondent of the New Orleans Herald writes that the question of ntilizing the waste of oitiee i* attracting much attention in that oity in view of the filthy condi tion of tho streets and tho reeking filth that ia exudad from tbe sewers. The Herald has re oently devoted considerable spaee to the quea tion of sewer ntilizition, and the World is now engaged in a stiff crusade against the health authorities in not cleaning the streets. In thia matter England ia far ahead of thia country. A five years trial in English oilies shows that the waste of eities worked np Into fertilizers, yield* a profit over and above expenses of $4 for each inhabitant per year. New York, with a million population, can aasiiy make Us waste worth $4 000 000 per yeer, end I learn that an English company is now endeavoring to introdnoe that system here, with the ultimate view of extend ing it to all tbe great cities of this continent There ia no reason why New Orieans should not realize fonr dollars a year upon the basis of ench inhabitant Baltimore, by an expensive proceas, is saving nearly a quarter of a million by work ing np it* waste into fertilizers, and probably by tbe English process wonld derive a revenue of $350,000 or $400 000 yearly, AUnlrii In’ Mississippi. A Mississippi letter rays: “The situation of State polities Is very oomplioated. Along the Mississippi and Tombeohee rivers are lo cated a large nnmber of negroes, who in elec tion time* make np a State majority of 20,000. Tbe result ia, that while the negroes can elect a Governor and control the State Senate, they cannot chooae a majority of county representa tives. United States Senator Amoe’ term is aboot to expire. His sneoessor must bo rati fled by the Lower House. Thie will necessi- tale a ‘scrub race,’ and B. D. Nabors, who once defeated Jacob Thompson, has been brought forward, almost from tbe catacombs, to manip ulate the negro vote, and perhaps to go to the United States Senate. No other man, white or black, is so popular with the Mississippi ne groes as ia Nabers. Ex-Govemor Alcorn, fiod- ing the prospects decidedly against his election to the United States Senate, has persnaaed hi* friends to influence parties who wonld not sup port him to veto for Naber*. Ames and Pow ers are both seeking the Senate for tbe next term, and if Nabera can succeed—a3 many think he will—in securing the white vote and that of Aloorn’a friends, Amss and Powers have no chmee. Indeed, the situation is so actions for Ames that Ben Bntler is coming here to canvass the Stato in tho interest of his son- in-law. For tlie Cholera. From the New York Journal of Commerce ] More than forty years ago, when it wra focnl that preventation for the Asiatio cholera wks easier than rare, the learned doctors of both hemispheres drew np a prescription, which was published (for working people) in the New York San and took the name of the “San cholera mixture.” Onrcontemporaryneverlentit3name to a better article. We have seen it in constant use for nearly two scare year*, and found it to be the beat remedv for looseness of the bowels ever yet devised.' It is to be commended for several reasons. It is not to be mixed with liquor, and therefore will not be used as an al- cobolio beverage; its ingredients are well known among aU the common people, end it will have *o prejudice to combat; each of tho materials is r. equal proportion to the others, and it may therefore be compounded without profesaional skill; and. as the dose is so very email, it may be carr»a j a , tiny phial in the waistcoat pocket, a-a be always at band. It ia: Tinct. opii, Capsid, Rbei co., Janth pip., wiipjjo. Mix tho above in equal parts; dose, ten to thirty drops. In plait, terms, take equal parts tinotnre of opinm, red (bpper, rhnbard, pepper mint and camphor, and n; X them for nse. In oase of diarrkei, take a di*e of ten to twenty drops in three or fonr terapomfol of water. No one who haa this by him, and takes it in time, will ever have the cholera. Wt oommend it to oar Western friends, and hope *iat the recipe will be widely published. Even wL>n no cholera ia anticipated, it ia an excellent remedy for ordinary summer oomplaint. TBE GEORGIA PRESS. Colcmcs fairly rolls In blackberries this year, and they only oost one dollar per bnaheL Blackberry jam and pies next winter will make boarders wiah the crop had not been so large. Theez la hard sense In the following from tho Coiambus San, and it suits all latitudes too: Colton fields are fall of grass. The greatest exertion ia required to get it out. Labor is in great demand and at high figures. Such ia the condition, and while the situation is so critical the colored troops are hiring trains and making excursions all over the country, careless of what becomes of com and cotton. Snch things are nuisances. It wonld pay farmers to hire trains ahead of them and refuse their nse to the ool- ored troops; cotton plantations would be much better off thereby. The same paper says there is now little doubt of the Guards of that city contending for the $500 premium offered to tbe beet drilled com pany at tbe State Fair in October. Thst is a very “film boy ant" yonth who does" the Athens marriages for the Atlanta Herald. His lset performance is to compare the bride to a “lily cradled in the golden glimmer of some evening lake—a foam fleck anowy yet ana-flashed, crowning the ripplings of some soft sonihern seawhile the poor groom is repre sented ra looking “dazed and bewildered, as if crouching in the too strong sunshine of some whelming happiness.” Can anything bo more *sveetly pretty,” more meliflaonalv gushing ? Commenting npon the settiDg of tbe late San, of Atlanta, the Chronicle and Sentinel aays aU the dead are not yet numbered and adds: “Papers ere ceasing to be political machines. Journalism is becoming as legitimate a business aa tb&t of the dealers in drags or dry goods, and requires first a field and then ospital, energy and industry to make it a success. Without the employment of these requisites, all efforts will be futile, nnocess be an impossibility. Attempts rosy bo made to establish papers where the field is fully occupied, but though the; mty straggle along for a while, and eke oat a precarious existence, they mart eventually anocamb to the Inevitable, and entail loss npon those who make tbe dangerons experiment.” The Albany Central Oity reports a freshet in the southeastern portion of Worth county with great damage to crops. One farmer had his whole plantation under water—the highest point on it a foot and a half—and bis entiro orop rained, and was endeavoring to make np a school in order to make a snpport for his family. Mb Joseph H. Allen was eleoted Clerk of Snmter Superior Court last Tnesday. The vote stood Allen, 400; J. A Daniel, 2SO, and Wil liam B. Gucrry, 200. No politics in the rsoe. Ohoueba.—The Atlanta Herald of yesterday reports six deaths in Chattanooga from cholera on Thursday, and adds: SiNTTABT PnzcauTxoNB xs Atllnta On yes terday there was another rnmor (hat a case of cholera bad appeared in this city, and again, npon investigation, the report proved to be ut terly false. It appears that the person who was supposed to hnve oholera had eaten heartily of watermelons on Tuesday, and was attacked by diarrhoea on the following merning. A physi cian was oalled, and yesterday morning he was jerfectly well. The action of the City Connell, n prohibiting the sale of watermelons, nnripe fruit, stale vegetables, fish, eta, created mnoh excitement yesterday among dealers in those articles. Several persons who had invested largely in watermelons and bad received large numbers of them, were in a state of consterna tion at tbs prospect before them, aod were en deavoring to dispose of what they bad on hand. Some of them declared their intention of suing the oity for damaoes to the extent of the loss 'hey will inoar by the ordinance. Should they dr this and gain their units, it will be batter for the city to pay the money than to havo permit ted the sale of any article calculated to breed oholera By tbe great majority of our citizens, the aetion of the Connoil was heartily endorsed. As will be seen by Mayor Hammock’s proclama tion, tbe ordinance will be rigidly enforced. It is, therefore, to be hoped that dealers in fish, vegetable and frnits, will be carefnl and not sell any of tbe inUrdioted articles. Or Colonel Hardeman’s address at the late commencement of Yonng Femalo College, at Thomasvills, the Enterprise says : The wide reputation of this gentleman, as a scholar and statesman bad already prepared onr people to expect a rare entertainmont on this occasion, and they were not disappointed. His address was peculiarly appropriate in anbstanoe and felicitous in expression, thrilling the whole andienoe with his eloqneoco, and greatly in creasing his reputation and influence in this section. Auoxo tbo passengers who sailed on the ntramer Australis, of tbe Anchor Lice, from New York last week, wero Mr. William H. Youngand lady, Miss Mollie Yonng,Dr. Nathan J. Bussey, Mr. James I. Griffin and lady, of Colombns. The death of a woman in a few honrs from the bite of a spider near Dalton, ia reported in tbe last North Georgia CitiasD. A kumbeb of counterfeit 310 on the National Bank of Poughkeepsie, New York, are in dr- eolation at Savanah. Eldmuge Pall, a lad liviog in Calhonn oonnty, was struck by lightning snd killed last Sunday, while standing in an open field. Two other boys with him were severely shocked. Bibb Count! Faib.—The Dawson Journal has the following notioe of the late fair: It was onr pleasure to be in attendance the last day at the Bibb Oonnty Fair, and if we wero not afraid of being accused of over-reaohing in onr remarks, we wonld specify in detail the sights we beheld. Being jealons, however, of onr repntation for truth, we leave the reader to imagine what is perfection in the way of veget ables, flowers, farm prod acts, eto , and if yon have not the gift of ttretehing the imagination beyond anything ever seen or rend of in this section, it will be impossible for yon to con ceive of what we saw as prodnota of the farm and garden at the Bibb Oonnty Fair. Added to these was a varied display of the works of art and mechanism which made a show worthy larger pretensions, A heavy rain in the even- tng eerionsly interfered with the carrying ont of the programme—entirely doing away with the regatta, and detracting some what from the interest of the milking contest, the baby show and horse-back riding. So far as the milking was concerned, if we knew of a man who wanted twenty milk-maids and would not take either of the yonng ladies who entered the contest for the soore, we wonld conclude that he was not anxions to employ. The baby Bhow was limited as to numbers of contestants, bat cot s few remarked that many others wonld have entered for tbe beautiful car. riage if the rain had not kept them at home. Among those who entered we raw beauty rep resented in all its forms, and the greatest marvel to ns was how their fond parents, with the em barrassments Bnrronnding ns all sinoe the war, conid have saved cnoogh from their income to attire them in Bnch rich costnme. Altogether, the fair was a success beyend the expectations of its moat ardent supporters, and we have yet to see the vieitor who does not feel benefitted by his attendance. The Journal calls onr Park the “Eden of the South,” and says the people of Macon ought to erect a atatne to Mayor Huff, in honor of his labors in laying out and beautifying it. Coma Mine in Gbeexe Cocntt. — The Greensboro Herald asys abont fiity years ago considerable pore copper was discovered on the surface of lands reoently owned by Jndge Tngg’e, situated in Greene county about three miles from Union Point A company waa formed and a shaft fortyfeet deep was opened, going below tbe copper vein without touching it; the work was then abandoned. The works remained intact. Quite reoently a new com pany has been formed with a capital of $10,000, all cf which will be expended, if necessary, in fully developing the resources of the mine. They have a twenty horse power engine, and are slowly progressing with their work. A tun nel of 28 feet carries them to tbe bottom of the vein, which is exceedingly rich in pure copper. They have already brought to the surface many tons of ore mixed with dirt. The valoe of this mixtnre is estimated at$73per ton, yielding from 15 to 35 per cent of copper. This estimate ia not from their last analysis, which ia ranch richer. It also contains sulphur in large quan tities, which may readily be converted into sul phuric acid, for which there ia great demand aa s moans of converting the bone phosphate into soluble rnstter resdy for the fanner. As yet cone of the ore haa been shipped, bnt arrange ment* are making to do so at onoe, making Baltimore their market. According to ita pres ent measurement and estimatedTalne, it is placed at $800,000. A Brr or Yillunt.—A few weeks sinoe, rays the Sandersville Herald, a yonng man, Aaron Peyser by name, came to this place, for the purpose of doing some work for a gentleman of thia city. Hia wardrobe being rather scant, we presume, he concluded after ■ stay of a few days, to replenish from that of a gentleman to whose bed room be had aoeeas. He waa detec ted in the theft, the stolen goods being found safely, as he supposed, donbUees, deposited in hia valke. Being a yonng man, a stranger and friendless, tbe sympathies of the people ware aroused in hia behalf, and ha arms permitted to depart in peace, after paying the oost of inves tigation and returning the stolen property. For this leniency it is natural to suppose he wonld have felt very grateful. It seems, however, that hia sentiments were quite the reverse. Upon leaving here be hies away to a Federal official and prefers charges against two of onr beat citizens—men above suspicion, on* a lead ing member of tbs Bar snd the other a promi nent and successful merchant and popular phy sician—as violators of the Infernal (beg par don, that f ought to have been a t,) Revenue Law. On Monday last two United States offi cers were here to require the presence of these gentlemen before a Federal tribunal. It is useless to say the entire community is perfectly indignant. That the gentlemen will be able to establish their innooence, there can be no donbt. Gsxat Excitement at Albany !—Tho Albany News of yeeterday Bays: Yesterday morning onr attention was oalled to a loog train of wrguns aod carts unloading wool at the warehonee of Messrs. Welch, Cook Jc Baoon. Tbe interesting sight attracted ns to the warehouse, where we found Mr. Cook and weighers bnsiiy engaged in receiving and weigh ing sixteen bales of wool as large aa cotton bales, and nnmerons small packages done np in sheets. In tbe warehouse yard we oonnted abont twenty fine, fat mules, belonging to the person* who bad brought the wool, and we learned in addition that each individual had brought along money enough to buy supplies without forcing their wool npon the market. THE CHOLERA. Hear to Dent with ft—Kecemmeiicfitflons or tbe American Pnblle Health Associa tion. The American Pablio Health Association, at the head of which are some of the most promi nent medical men in tbe country, have issued a circular containing suggestions as to the moat available means for arresting and preventing the fatal prevalenee of Asiatio cholera in lh a oonntry. From this oireniar, tho following hints and suggestions are taken: '' To oombat and arrest the progress and pre vent the epidemic prevalence of this soonrgo of sanitary negligence it is necessary that the in habitants of every city and town should promptly resort to the most effectual purification, and the best known means of disinfection, and that this sanitary cleansing Bnd preparation should be at onee and very thoroughly oarried into effeot— before any oases of cholera ooonr— and that in tbe presence of the disease these sanitary duties should be enforoed in every bonsehold and throughout the entire district. Experience has proved that tbe best way (o prevent both pesti lence and panic ia to know and prepare for the danger. It is the only way to deal successfully with cholera.” After enumerating tbe local conditions that chiefly promote the outbreaks and propagation of oholera, snch as foul cellars or drains, decay ing animal and vegetable matter, unventilated and damp bnildings. eto., the circular prooeeds to insist npon the necessity of personal cleanli ness and temperanoe to ensure health. The disiofeotsnt recommended by tbe oironlar is composed of .eight or ten pounds of snlphate of iron (copperas) dissolved in five or six gallons of water, with half a pint of erode carbolio add added to the eolation, and briskly stirred, makes the cheapest and beat disinfeoting fluid for com mon nse. It oan be proenrod in every town and by every family, and if the oarbolio acid is not at haul, tbe solution of copperas may be need without it. The oironlar, after reiterating the absolute’ necessity for closnlin°sa and tne immediate disinfection cf all matters discharged from the stomsch and the bowels of the patient, con cludes with the following hopefnl paragraph: “From being tbe most feared and destruc tive pestilence, cholera, has beoorns entirely submissive to sanitary measures of prevention, and oan now be controlled with snch certainty and completeness as to prevent Us ravages as an epidemlo. Believing, therefore, that tbe people of the United States will wisely apply tbe suggestions which are given in this mem orandum, tbe committee presents them for tbe pnrpose of hastening and making sure the most extensive, thorough and speedy ooctrol of this destroyer.” A Great Flower Garden. Colonel Avery, of the Atlanta Constitution, who is roaming through the West, writes tbns from Sk Leu's abont Shaw’s Garden: You have heard of old bachelors’ whimsies. There are lot* of them on record. Bnt Henry Shaw, of St. Louis, haa given practical execn- tion to the most remarkable bachelors’ crochet of tbe age. He is a Scotchman, a millionaire, and some 75 years old. He has constrnoted tho fineBt pri vate flower garden in the world. It has 350 aores in it, and is a gorgeous marvel of a gar den. It has every flower in it, obtainable over tbo world, that will live in the St. Lonis oli- mate. It i* a bewildering paradise of floral beanty. The flowers nnmber by tbe millions. Its cost no one can tell. Shaw himself don’t know. It is threaded by walks and adorned with observa tories and hot bonses foil of the rarest exotics. A force of a hundred gardeners is needed to keep tbe place in order. Shaw, it is said, spends bis entire income from bis millions in keeping it np. He began the thing after the war, and for several years he hss opened it to tbe pablio. Hundreds of thousands of visitors resort to it. It is the chief attiaction and cariosity for the stranger in St. Lonis to visit And, strange to say, no police guard it. and no flowers are pil fered. This is tbo pnblio’e reverenoe to the man’s generous enterprise. We visited tbe elegant house at the head of the garden. A picture of Shaw represents him standing amid his flowers. Two elegant por traits of beantifnl ladies in the garb of a past day represent some of his female progenitors. A huge book is kept there for visitors to record their names in. A enrions featnre of the garden is beds de voted to one flower. For instance, there is a large bed with every variety of cactns; another with hundreds of verbenas; and so on. Every thing is in a prodigal profusion. It is a enrions notion this, that prompts a rioh man to devote a great income to one pet caprice, and that principally for the benefit of others. Bnt in this very caprice, so nnnsnal and so expensive, is wrapped np ills own per sonal aspiration. He thns makes his celebrity. AndwbyBhonld a man not strive to become known through his mammoth gardens, as well as through his statesmanship or achievements of arms or genius. Sbaw ia near the grave. He baa, in pursn- ance of his ambition, willed bis gardens to tbe eity, on condition that the city binds itself to keep them np. The city has eagerly accepted the beqnest, and thns, through private liberal ity, gets without cost, a pablio garden not ear passed in the world for magnificence and beanty. The garden will be forever dabbed “ Shaw’s Garden,” and he tbns travels on to immortality on the snocessfal realization of his stupendous and most beantifnl crochet. Crops Id the Southwest. A Washington correspondent of the New York Tribane of tbe 24th, writes: I came North from New Orleans by river steamer to Memphis, and thence by the way of Chattanooga, Bristol and Lynchburg. While in New Orleans, nearly fonr weeks, I remember bnt two days on whioh there was not rain. The mornings were generally clear and hot until nearly noon, when the clonds wonld gather and the rain would deioend in torrents for perhaps an hoar. In the afternoon the snn wonld shine ont again, and in the evening we were likely to have another shower. This excessively wet weather has greatly injured the prospects for good crops. All along the sugar coast of the Mississippi the grass among the cane was as high as tha cane itself, and in many places water was standing between the rows. I saw very few fields where any plowing had been done, and plant ers were very despondent. I also met several gen tlemen from the Bayou Teche country, who said the sugar crop there wonld be greatly injured unless the rains ceased very soon. The sugar planters are also suffering for want of money with which to pay the expenses of running their plantations. The partial failure of the sugar crop last year “broke” come of the fac tors ; the political troubles of the winter and spring have caused the money market to be “tight,” and the present unpromising condition of the crops make* the merchants unwilling to risk advanoea. Unless the rains cease very soon many of the planters will be rained, aa the profits on their crops will not be enough to pay their taxes. The sugar planters cannot look forward io high prices to remunerate them for their short crops, since the amount of sugar produced in the United States is so small in comparison with the amount consumed that the size of the crop haa very little effect on the price. North of the sugar belt, along the Mississippi river, in Louisiana, Mississippi, Arkansas, the northern. part of Alabama, and the southern part of Tennessee, the rains have also been ex- oeksive and have already considerably injured the cottcai crop. In Arkansas around Helena, and in Misaizaippi north of Greenville, I raw tbe first cotton fields in which any great amount of work had been done, and it waa not until after passing Chattanooga that I saw cotton field* that did not appear to have been injured. The ootton planters, I think, have, on the whole, better prospect* than the sugar planters, because s short atop of ootton will cause an ad- vanoe in prioe. Besides this, the ootton planters have mnoh leas money invested in each plantation and are leas dependent on the mer. chants for advanoea. The last rain that I saw waa at Bristol, near the line between Tennessee and Virginia. Tbe grasses whioh oonatitnte the principal crop of Southwestern Virginia are locking unusually well, and the yield will, I should think, be above the average. The country between Lynchburg and Wash ington has suffered as muoh for the want of rain as the Southwest has from the excess of it. The wheat is generally thin, and the oorn looks parched and yellow. The tobacco is just begin ning to show itself above the ground, and it is as yet impossible io ray what effeot the weather will have npon tbe crop. BOOKS! BOOKS!! —OF ALL KINDS— TO SUIT EVERYBODY.
