The following description of a California of nat extent end great productiveness, ^•applied by the Sacramento Union, of June •j ; -Dr. Glenn, of Gola«a county, owna a nube which contains nearly 45 000 acre*. It tabracet a frontage cf eighteen milee on the gaeruaento river, and extends back about five sUee. It la ineloeed and divided by 140 milea of fencing. One tenant, G W. Hogg, rent* end cultivate* about 10,000 acrea of the land, and the Gnpton Brothers cultivate an equal portico. Some 15.000 acrea are rented out to • number of fanners who work on a smaller istit. At the present time farming operations in goiog on on the ranebe at a lively rate, a* the wock of harvesting la progressing rapidly Hoff is engaged to cutting 7 000 acres of wheat •ad barley. The crop will this year yield about tveaty bushels per acre of wheat. In favorable •tenons tba yield baa abent been 35 bushels. The yield of barley is considerably larger. The total crop will amount to nearly 180,000 bushels. He U thrashing his grain with one of Case's forty- eight-inch cylinder threshing machine, which is run by a twenty horse-power steam engine. To supply the machine requires six large-sized headers and eighteen header-wagons, all of vhleh require the labor cf 110 horses and 50 man. The machine has threshed five sacks of barley per minnte, at which rate it has ran for an boar and a half in aoceestion. It has also threshed thirty two aaok* of wheat in seven minutes. Ic will require about six weeks to thrtsh the entire crop. The e are the opera tions of Hogg alone. Gnpton Brothers have an equally Urge crop, and are driving badness on about the same aoale. The smaller tenants are equally well employed." Street Contractor Hr, S. I. GnaUn. Sane parties having animadverted npon the •yttem panned by oar energetio contractor in bis work npen the streets, it affords us pleasure to eUte that Mr. Harman, the city sexton, af firms that the access to Hose Hill is far easier sod better, than at any former period. Steep hills hive been cut down, hollows filled up, and inequalities graded, so that the largest prooea- aton may proceed without those painfal stop pages and annoying accidents once so oommon. Again, the ride op college street is now smooth and pleasant, and the ascent far less difficult than it was a few months ainoe. The splendid condition of Mnlberry street, and the new ap. preach, hitherto deemed impassable to Weslyan Female College, the latter accomplished at a great outlay of labor but a lasting ornament and oonvtnienoe to tbe city, likewise attest the sa gacity and fidelity of Mr. Gnstin. At present he is engaged in filling np the un sightly gully on one side of Wslnnt street, be tween Spring street and the residence of Mr. David Blount, so adjusting the bed of the street that tbe water in fotnre will be thrown over ioto tbe branch whioh debouches into tbe sewer near the stable of Mr. Thomas Wood. This will b* s moat important improvement to that por tion of the city. W* purpose to pursue this subject at greater length very soon, and ventiUte the whole ques tion of street work and drainage. A r mniT important faot is nntioed by a correspondent of the Philadelphia Preja, who h* been making a to nr of observation through tbe Southern States. ’This is the entire freedom of speech and of debate prevailing through thus* regions a marked contrast to the state of •(Taira there before the war. The correspondent va* permitted, without provokiDg any insult or reproaob, to say what he pleased of tbe war, its causes and its oonaequenees; and never at any moment was be in danger of being tarred and feathered, to aay nothing of being nanged. Tbere were not even nnkind words nor angry looks This indioatea a great popular change which we of tbe North should appreciate and respect.—7 ritone. It also **indiettea" that there is not the same neoesiity to ateer dear of tho truth this year that there was last, when the Presidential can vnm was going on. There are no elections to be lLflu*noed in 1873 as there were in 1872, and therefore not tbe same vile motive for slander ing the Southern people in order to exsite tbe passions of tbe North. The Fame freedom of speech and debate existed at the South before, but it did not snit the purposes of tbe Radical party to admit lb That patty might have been driven from plaoe and power had such an ad. mission been made. If tbere was a Presiden tial eleetion ooming off next year the Press and its allies would go back on their present state ments without scruple. Tbe Ka Klnx would be instantaneously resurrected, atd the Northern heart fired with a daily recital of “rebel" and Democratio outrages. It is some comfort, bow. ever, to know that Southern correspondents cf Radical papers have put the truth on reoord even at this late day. It would be a greater consolation to hope that they will stick to it hereafter, but that is out of the question. The luxury of telling the truth about the South ia one they never indnlge in except when it cin be done without any danger, in their opinion, of hurting “the party." They look at every thing from that standpoint, and they always will. How H* Pitas It.—A Long Branch cor res pondent of the Herald says Grant arrived there on tbe afternoon of the 31 When seen on board the boat that morning “he showed no outward emblem of mourning, wearing a light hat, without tho enstomary crape around ib In deed, to judge from his appearanoe, he either bore hia lose with resignation, or, according to his habit, suppressed within himself all demon stration of Borrow. He was in quite a talkative mood, chitting and laughing frequently with several gentlemen who sat near him. We see it stated that old man Jesse Grant's will left him nothing, which may or may net have tome connection with the spirit of entire resignation manifested as above. Tax KxrrrcxT Lunar.—Ex Got. Dram latte announces in the Courier Jonrnal of the 4 th, that the tickets are all sold and the draw ing will take place to-morrow, the Stii instant. The Kentucky Library when Tarnished will doubtless be well provided with every edition of Hoyle, a ecmplete series of “keerda” from whieh the ancient Noah solaced hia long voyage on the watcrj with a quiet game of whist, down to the degenerate days of Ah Sin, with every other gaming implement or contrivance known to the aoua of Adam in all time. As a collec tion of th* literature of gambling it will be un« approachable. A Gsobgia editor describing a wedding lately, arid the bride “looked a very lily, cradled in the glimmer of some evening lake—& foam fleck, snowy, yet sen-flashed, crowning tho rippling of seme soft Southern eea."

Tbe story comes by a score of avact pilgrim oonriers from Arkansas, that several hundred negroes are alowly working their way on foot back to Georgia from that btate, whither they were seduced last winter and spring by the machinations of speculators who employed as their paid agents in the business leading negro politicians in various counties of Middle and Southwestern Georgia. These negro fuglemen raised a great excite ment among the credulous colored people. They made the inevitable results of their own bad ad- ice and turbulent and domineerieg spirit, the reason why these Georgia negroes should aban don tbe land of their birth and all the comfort* and security of home, far the uncertainties of new and untried oountry. They got up meet ing*, bj handbills, bonfires, cannon and music and made ixflimmatory speeches to their credulous bearers—telling them that here, in Georgia, they must always be under white rule, and ooold never get justioe or fair treatment. That if they even attempted'to vote against the hitee they were liable to be shot down, as they had been in Macon, in the attempt to capture poll*—that wages would be kept down to a point and there was no cfaanee for them. That in Arkansas they would find not only a better and more properons country, bat a State where the blacks were largely in the majority— where they canid protect themselves, and be of high wages and rich crops. Misled by these representations somewhere from three to six thousand, and perhaps a good many more, left home and employment in Geor gia and started off f >r Arkansas daring tbe rlg- of the last hard winter, or the terribly in clement weather of tbe early spring. The story of their suffering* sod disappoint ments, as it came back in casual and rude let to relatives and friends here, has borne a piteous uniformity. Probably from twenty to fifty per cent have perished from exposure to bad weather, small pox contagion, bad water and unwtolescras and Insufficient food. The mortality among them fc&s been frightful, and swindling to which they have been exposed ell-nigh universal. Great numbers of them have addressed mov ing appeals to their old employers and masters send on money to pay their way back, and this has been done in some cases; bat the risk remittance has been so great, and money so scarce that no great amount of relief has been afforded in this way. At last, driven to desper ation, many of tbe more hardy emigrants begin retrace, in a weary pilgrimage on foot, tbe judged emigration, and. aa we have said, some twenty have got back, reporting four or five hundred more on the way in various stages the toilsome journey. They have had a severe lemon, but with somo may perbape be a useful and eventually a profitable one. If it shall have taught them that the real friends they have, who can be cf any substantial service to them, *re numbered among the Southern white owners of the soil— that all their true interests, as well as those of whites, lie in the maintenance of an intelli gent, just and responsible government by tbe tax-pay ere of the State, and that the rascals— black, copper-colored and white—who are try ing to pat them at loggerheads with the plant ers, are their most deadly enemies, ready, as they have seen, to sell their lives and comfort a few dollars a head—if it shall induce them shun these villains hereafter—buckle down sturdy work and save their earnings, their ;er experience will not have been in vain. They oan soon regain comfort and prosperity, and we trust they will do so. If whites and negroes will both take hold of labor manfnlly and judiciously, Georgia can be just as rich and oomfortable ns thefe is any use being. Bat in order to do this each must labor failhfolly in his lot and each support the other. Tbe laborer cannot obtain high wages & comfortable and prosperous condition oat embarrassed, failing and bankrupt employ ers—nor can employers better theirs with faith less, lazy and dishonest employes. Both must work together heartily and industriously. The awful and fatal swindle of th* deluded blacks by their trusted negro leaders cannot be punished by lsw. It has murdered many hun dreds, but it is a murder which must go unpun ished except by mere pnblio reprobation. It hereafter shall see these same negroes rallying crowds to the drams and fifes of the men who have sold them out into worse than slavery, it will at least illustrate a want of souse below that of tho bmte. Tbe C holera. Louisville confesses to threo cholera deaths on the 33, and three highly respectable people were the victims. One of them was attacked with the diseaso early in the day and died at four o’clock In the afternoon. These first cholera cases In Louisville this season. The Courier- Journal of the 4th says that cholera mor bus is quite prevalent in tho west.ondof the city. Tbe latest reports from Chattanooga show that the disease is subsiding there. Nashville considers herself as almost out of the trouble. In Memphis the deaths are six or seven a day. In Kcoxville, the Press and Herald ssya: No cases of the disease, in its malignant form, have appeared. Mrs. N. 8. Rutherford, the Announcement of whose death appears in oar colnmns this morning, died, we learn, from sn attack of malignant cholera morbos. Unlike tbe usual progress of the disease, this attack, which was first felt on Monday, was slow in its fearful course, and did not resalt fatally until 'dock last evening. The symptoms of her case are unmistakably pronounoed those inci dent to malignant cholera morbus. Tho Bev Dr. Mays,*of the Baptist Church, was very ill yesterday lot a short time, but the symptoms of bis case, though reported to be cholera, were pronounced by the attending physicians nothing less than those incident to o!d-faabioned oolie. He was convalescent last night, and will no donbt be entirely recovered by to-day. We have given the whole truth in regard to the prevalence of sickness in our eity, and will continue to do so. Let no one suffer any alarm, for we baTO no cases of real cbolerain our midst. A Washington telegram of the 2d to tbe Cin cinnati Commercial says: Private dispatches received Lere from Ala bama represent a terrible eondition of affair* In some parts of the State tbe cholera is raging at a fearful rate, the towns are being depopula ted, tbe residents oS which are leaving in order to escape tbe terrible scourge, and it is reported that in a place containing abont one thousand inhabitants, deaths have occurred to the extent of tw*nty-seven in a day. We believe that report is almost wholly false and sensational. No mention of cholera in New York has been made in papers or dispatches since the annonce- ment of two deaths on tbe 3d instant. Senator Bajard at the University of Virginia—Aa Eloquent Tribute to Cea. Lee. From Senator Bayards late oration at the closing exercises of the University of Virginia which tbe New York World publishes in foil, we make this glowing extract: Bat great as is all this wealth scattered from the frtutfal horn of nature, yoa have a moral inheritance infinitely greater and more valuable in the memory and character of the great and good men whose forms have once again been clasped to the breast of the land that gave them birth and which they died to defend. “I would not give my dead Oasory for any living son in England," was the proud cry of a bereaved mother. lf We would not exchange our dead Lee for any living soldier," is the proud re sponse of every true Virginian And what wonder ? Even be, wise, good, and brave as be was, confessedly the first soldier of his day, and one of th* first in recorded history, as con scientious as he was able and modest as he was brave, was never so powerful in life as now in death. Hia pure spirit, freed from earthly con tact, sneaks in tone* cf gentle admonition to ns all. Aye, to all. For as well oould you fetter tbe sweet wind of tbe South and bird it in spring time, not awoken to life and joy the bird and floweret of the Northern forest, as to ex clude the fragrance of the life and character of Robert E. Lee from the hearts and minds of men and women of every section of this conn- try. Hia life is more eloquent than any poor address I oould make npon it. His example at every atago of his career seems sacces-fclly to challenge criticism. If his memory be cher ished, as I cannot donbt it will be, exhortation virtue will be little remedy, for be will have be unknown or forgotten by the American who commits an unworthy act. ' Peace—his triumph shall be sung Fy soma yet unmoulded tongue Far on in summer* that we shall not see." And now, even did I wish it otherwise, my address must end. Were I to describe a dili gent student aud ingenious youth you would 'bink I meant Lee, the cadet at West Point Dul I picture the promise of youth fulfilled, and show you the skillful, vigilant, atd coura geous soldier and commander, tbe gentle and careful and affectionate father, the constant, generous friend, the upright citizen, you would think of Lee. And did I describe a good aad greet man. struggling against adversity and ex hibiting all qualities that adorn and dignify hu manity. yon would still say I meant none but Lee. Let me leave yoa with him and bid yon now farewell in the words of one who lashed falsehood and meanntea with a sharp severity, but whose love of all that makes yonth lovely and age respected was sincere and constant: “Who misses or who wins tha prize, Go lose or conquer a* you can; But if you fail oi if you lire £a each, pray God, a gentleman." BY TELEGRAPH. Cholera at Cliattaaooga and Dalton. We find these telegrams in the Atlanta Con stitution of Sunday: XATKSS TXOil CHATTANOOGA. Chittaxoooi, July 4, 8 r. u.—Twelve deaths from cholera to-day. It is reported that Postmaster Kendrick and Ed. Blond ell are dying. THX LiTT-T. Chattanooga, Jaly 5, 6 p. u.—Only two deaths to-day. Kendrick and Blondell are much better. We think the worst ia over, and that the epidemic will rapidly disappear. All the whites who have been attacked are recovering. A hopeful feeling pervades the entire city to night. Looxorr. THOM DALTON. Dalton, July 4.—A case cf cholera here to day. Mr. Robert Lindsey, formerly an em ployee of the Western and Atlantic Bafliood Company, left Chattanooga yesterday morning, was taken at 4 r. m. and died at 10 o'clock las: evening. His brother is now sick with the dis ease. Several bad cases of cholera morbus town, but cone have so far proved fatal. Th© Champion ot Reaction. A World interviewer, according to that pa per, has drawn from the Empress Eugenie, Geneva, a sweeping reactionary manifesto, which we print to-day. There is a power in sufficient to stimulate resistanoe and ensure de feat. Mankind are not travelling on that road, and will not bny tickets. The line of policy indie*tod by the ex- Empress ia not harmonious with the history and traditions of the Bona parte*. It bel.icgs to the Bourbons and will periih with them. Words of Troth. Senator Bayard, of Delaware, one of the few statesmen left to the country of ancient and noble monld, in his address to the Alnmui of the Univerlity of Virginia, says: “In my belief the vigorous exercise of the simple and primitive virtues exhibited by the men who founded onr government was the true cause that such a government became possible, ■nd that it was pat in operation and maintained for many years; and that by the impetus thus received we are still able to retain its original form. When I refer to the past it is not idly to mourn over it and the change wrought in so much we held ic close affection and jast value, bat here to aver my belief that, whatever may be the present condition of our government, its forces, and its tendencies, we cf this day have our only hope for that happiness, individual and national, that security to person and property, that social, political, and religions freedom which were tbe object for which our fore fathers instituted this government, in the re vival and constant exercise of tbe simple virtues practised by the founders of the republic, which the growth of wealth and luxury and a period ' civil war, with its necessary accompaniment publie demoralization, havo done so much to »sen in public as well as In private use. Tho men of our firatrevolation were truthful, honest, constant, frugal, industrious and brave. Adversity had been their nurse, and those vir tues were the rugged texts of her instruction When they cime to lay the foundation of a gov ernment they naturally based their organic law on these principles, so that they became its mo tive power, the inspiring sentiment of the en tire scheme. Throughout the written charter of carefully enumerated delegated and limited powers with whioh they entrusted their offioial rulers and representatives everywhere, are to be found evidences of this. It was because they were possessed of the virtues I have named tba: they formed the government they did. It was the natural result of such possession. The government was designed for a people like them- selves; it was totally unfit for people, unlike them. And we may bo sura that attempts to engraft npon it a government having a different class of ideas and principles for its basis cau be but the commencement of s career of loss and sorrow, with certain failure as the final result. If the Federal Constitution should have been so in* vtided and overthrown that it shall never again be restored in tho beanty and beneficence in which the eyes of onr fathers beheld it, it is be cause the virtues which gave it birth havo fallen into disuse, and the bands and brains which have destroyed it have been those of men whose hatred was stronger than their love of justice, whose love of gain overcame their love of trntb, and whose fear of local and temporary discon tent overcame the courage necessary to enable them to stand by their dnty. The virtuous qualities I have been consider ing, which alone can create and keep a State, are personal and individual, and which, being possessed and exercised by the leading men of a community, those whose example most affects and influences the mass, become in a great de gree the rales compelling evil minded men, at least outwardly, to pay homage to Virtue by wearing her habiliments; and above these primitive, positive and congenial virtneB floats that fine aroma of sentiment and character which, though undefined and perhaps undefina- ble, never fails in aconracy; though delicate and sensitive, is more powerfal than armies; which, having no marketable valae, outweigh-* all things purchasable—the sentiment called personal honor; tbe firstborn child of goed faith and kindly feeling, which guides good men when their neutral powers aro obscured by doubt, and to deny the existence of which would tnvolvo the degradation of the human species/' For the Ladles Only. We find the following bulletin on a moat im portent subject to our thousand and one friends of the feminine way of doing their back hair, in Harper's Bazar, of a late date. Let ua hope, for their sakes, that the new fashion will not get under headway nntil the meronry takes a downward turn: Hair dressers predict that coiffures will soon change their position and be worn lower; in deed, leaders of fashion have already begun to wear them so, though it is probable that tbe present altitude will be retained during tbe Hummer, os it has the advantage of being very cool. Finger-puffs chignons, made very light, witb lengthwise puffs coming dow on the fore head, and-extending to the nape of the neck behind, are tba newest caprice. The most prevalent ooiffure for the street and general use is still the crown braid, wound high around the top of the head. Double and single crown braids, in thick plaits of three tresses, are each worn. The pompadour roll, high above tbe forehead, is out of favor for all except very blonde aud prematurely gray hair; also the idiotio-looking Vandyck fringe falling ilmost to the eyes, in Skye terrier style. Close- v-crimped hair and all frizzss are abandoned for the more natural-looking wavy hair. Ladies \*ho have burned or worn off their front hair by frizzing it are using false fronts, not like those worn by old ladies, but made np of short, waved tresses, set on a thin, lace-like net of hair, that dees not conceal the natural white scalp at the parting. Mb. Davis in New Yobx— A Rxtostxb Ssthesd.—Ex-President Davis was in New York last week, and cf course did not escape the visits of those newspaper ear-wigs called re porters. One from the Herald tackled him but was badly fooled, as the following from that paper of the 4tb, shows. It Bays The reporter announced his desire to hear an expression of the views of Mr. Davis on the affairs of the country. Tae ex President replied quickly: “It can't be. Iam entirely apart from politics now.” “Eut, the state of the South; its commercial, agricultural reeds r” Mr. Davis interrupted the reporter courte ously, saying: “No, sir; I can aay nothing. You must understand my position, and, there fore, oemprehend my determination to have nothing to say upon any subject, as every one must lead to politics, from who*e diecuasi am separated.” Seeing that perseverance in the queries would only be disoenrteous and not useful, the Herald representative said, “Well, Mr. Davis, I under stand you are about to leave the country.” “What oountry ?" was the interrogative reply. “Leave what country ? No, sir; its a mistake. I do not intend to go to Europe." Connecticut is *atp to bx in 1 Shut—the wells aud streams all dry—no water and A »w forbids beer and whisky. DAT DISPATCHES. Pronunelamento from Ex-Empress En- rente. Nxw Yobx, July 7.—A letter from Geneva to the World gives a conversation with the late Empress of France. She says her visit to France is for political purposes, and it is use less to try to conceal it. 8he believes there will soon be a general return of the people to order, and said tbe Piedmontese government at Rome, the anti-Christian and Pagan Court at Berlin, and the Wild Communate at Madrid, are fi led with fear at the awakening of Catholic France. Now that the wretched Thiers is gone, all the moves that MacMahon makes are prudent. He loves France. The fature, said Eagenie, is onrs, and France will lead the re action against the forces which have seemed to threaten the existence of society and religion throughout Europe. She saw in the future that France may again be at the head of the nations the robbers driven out of Rome—the Pope re stored—Germany divided into harmless States -Austria again strong. An AOectlonnfe Family. A dispatch from Winchester, Va., states that family named Little were at breakfast, on Saturday, a fend broke out, when two sons named Oscar and Lycurgus, commenced firing at four other sons and their mother, tke firing being returned by the other sons.
