Paying Postage. \ The argument* in favor of the reatoratlon of tb* *o-e*Ped frtnkirg privilege and free ex change* to newapapera multiply; bat we eee no eeeetaaive fore* in them. Donbtlen, It ie in- eooventeot ui pay for anything. particularly when moaay i* eearo*; bnt *a everything most he pail for by eotnebody, there can be no more equitable rnle than that he who gets the oonaid cation aboold make the payment. There ia nothing gained bat warte in ahiiftng the poet eg* on newipaper exchanges and franked pack egee opoo th* oonlingent and general approprl- ation food*, and oolleotlng tt out of the people In the ahap* of taxes. It la legitimate and proper that the Pott Office Department shook! meat it* own expenaoa; and then, if it ia foand that the abolition of free packages baa prodnoed a sarpln* of revenne, rednoe tbe pottage charge on all. In this way no In]attic* it done. Tb*r* ia a load groaa in tbe New York Times about vbat ia to bo done with all tbe pnbllo doejmeot*, the printing of wbiob is n source of so mcch expenre and so little light to tbe conn try. There are those thirteen preoions volume* of Hukulr Teitimony, tbo portage on which is loot dollar, and thlrty-fonr oents—who is going to pay that postage for them ? Y«s, truly, who |i going to pay It I Then there are the Oon praastonel Globes, pottage from $I.IG down wards, and the Agrlecimral and Patent Office ]Uporta, at about fitly cent* apiece, and the Department Reports, from two dollars down, tad all the enlogtes and all the whitewashing reports, to say nothing of tbe centos statistics. It It computed that if eaob member sends off hit pro ratnm of th* Pnb. Doc., it will oost him in portage $1,000 a year—and yon know b* ia not going to pay that ont of hia own pock- at! Yea, wa know ha la not going lo pay that Than, wbat ia going to beoome of the tons of Fob. Doe*. ? Answer: reserve a supply for (star* rsfsrsnoe sod send tbs balance to the paper mill direct. Instead of tbe circuitous route •f the postoffloe end constituency. In future print fewer oopies, and deposit them for tbe benefit of whoever will order them, inoiosing postage and expenses. All tbe departments will than have a pretty good test of tbe value of their literary labors lo the popular estimation,aud who ever wants their reports can get them at oost aod know where to apply. As a matter of fact we donbt not the Fnnk- lageyetemand froo exchanges will be restored In fuller force than over during the approaching winter, and members will be sending home tbtir weekly wash a, nsnal under frank, in the soar** of tlx months. Bat tbe present system is jast, honest and right, and wo sbonld bo glad lo sa* it conttnued. Tlin Iran Age In Alabnmiu A New York exchange says that while the North has passed the Iron Ago, and Is now en uring into that of Bronx*, the South Is not jat out of lbs era of clsy. There Is a good deal of troth In that figure, except that we ahenid Inatltnte Brass for Bronze, and say that oar Northern brethren have traveled a good ways iolo the bowels of the brazen age already. However, let them go cn by whatever road they will. As for the Sonlb, thnngb we do not wish her to forsake the olay which, trnnnmnted Into cot ton, U no bad source of revenne, yet it is very dear she will speedily enter the Iron Ago In no figurative sense. Georgia and Alabama teem with iron ores of ail descriptions In olose con- tlgnlly with every material neoessary lo fuse them, and the only question respecting this vast natural wealth, now lying dormant, is whether It shall enrloh strangers or her own ■oca. The title to much of it baa already pawed to oltizena of the North and of foreign ecuntriea, end this la more particularly true of Alabama. It U stid the oast and iron beds of that State are ample In volume to aupply the entire neoea- title* of tho world for GOO years or more, and the mineral wealth of Northwestern Georgia we believe to bo not Inferior to that of Alabama. In both Ststea Iron osn be prodnoed far more cheaply than in any other part of the world, and In every variety of fibre beat adapted to special naea in tbs mechanio arts. Tbe newspapers of Alabama are alive on tbe subjeot of the devel opment of tbo iron trade, and new farnsoes are springing np every month. Bnt Georgia is comparatively arieep—and perhaps she will oontinos to sleep until, in a lata waking, she finds ths titles to bar great mineral wealth bavs passed Into tho hand, of strangers, and her sons most be content, like the fox in the fable, with the mere drippings from tbe feast. We have no doobt of the substantial troth of tho prognostications of ths iron men in Ala bama, that In tbs next ten years tbe iron product of that State will exceed in value the agricultu ral product, and the same might be true of Georgia If her eons wonld waks up and avail tbemaelveaof tbe wsaltb Nature tenders to their hands. The cry that we have got no oapltal Is true only to a very limited tx ont. There is oapital enough to begin, and with a business affording sixty to eighty per cent, dividends the creation of oapital will be very rapid. Georgia is behind tbe age on this subjeot. TxatinO St.-i;v )« Nxw Jxbsit—A cyclone •wept through Southwestern New Jersey on Friday, which damtged farms, urops snd trees to the amount of several hundred thousand do'- lara. Every structure in its immediate track wr i swept away. A tremendous fall of bail as- oompanied the storm, and ice-atones aa large a« hen's egg* could be gathered and picked np in the track of the bnrrioiue by Ibe bnahel. Tbe storm moved from oast to west, and passed over Philadelphia withoat any mrrked demon stration of violsnc*. A heavy fall of rain, how ever, flooded tbo street* in many parts of tbe oily, snd a few honsea on the outskirts were •truok by lightning. Thx French Government is not only sending ont young girls from the hospitals snd reform atories cf Paris to Nsw Caledonia, bat the wives of the exiled Oommnniste are to follow them. These latter go by merchant steamers, under an agreement made by tbe authorities, binding the shippers to treat their passengers well, and feed them better tfcsu would be the case on board a vessel belonging to tho navy. The first steamers will carry six hundred wires to their hatbands, who, it ia to be expeoted, will be glad to welcome them. Seventy-fonr In fanta and many children will be on board. The voytge will last seventy weary day*. “A Sxt ti."—A Dickson oouuty cot respondent of the Union and Amerloan says: "There was recently killed In onr oonnty the largest make heard of so far this summer. He measured ten feet in length, his body was is large ss that of an ordinary man's, and was the happy possessor bf forty-two rattles. There la no exaggeration about this 'snake' tale, for it ia inevitably true. His body is now at Camber- land Fatnioe for any one to see that wishes to.' Twx movement looking toward the formation of a new State oat of North Mississippi, West Tennessee and Western Kentucky is being dis cussed with considerable animation by the news papers published in th* section interested. A oonvention ia to be held at Jackson on tha 23th instant, when delegates are to be present from every oity, town and civil district within the limits of the proposed saw Stats. The general aaaouraot seem* to be in favor of th* movement The Foundation of Governmt-Bt Mr. Ca-bouu, ^jb i'-s Treatise on Goserrmeot, a'tiiiaat wi'h fie po.ta'ate that a" govern moat ia founded on boman se>fl ’—e a—deriv ing its necessity and its support front that no amiable element of character; and tbo art peventing well oontit's in prcaeiving the roc - c litres between tbese'fi >h. contradictory and cross purposes of mankind—compelling them to hold eaob other in check. We speak fre memoiy, not baaing seen tbe book sloes it fi appeared; bnt recollect at tbe time a goed many of the Nor'he.n bre’brao and pb'lo'opberaweia deeply aeandal'z d at fbia view of government wbloh they cjr lids red a *»-/ low ooe. At that t'me tbe brethren of the New Eig land qnar er were very morh enamored with tbe mooli) nt, paternal, bead-patUng and moral antaion theory of government. lathe* righteous view of tbe matter, Government was • Heaven-tent and Heaven-sanctified good old granny with a gentle face, bedewed with amilei aod rooff, feeding tbe dear Iit-te ones around her knees, with blessing! aod the best of pap from a silver spoon. And aa Mr. Weller observed, "tbem was tbe sctoorl facts " in tbeir cave. Tbe Government always baa been a good old granny to tbem— always bav fed them with tbe richest of pap, snd those good obildreo woo'd probably have been oontent to cat their pap and let ns go srithont any In pesos, to the end of time; bnt when they saw the Southern boys seceding, they feared that we sronld insist upon taking a part of the marbles sod topi with ns, and there upon their beneficent and motherly govern meat took Instsnter tbe farm of a red-handed demon of foroe, wrath and vengeance, and now their favorite Idea of government rnns on tbe line of foroe. Indignation and fnry to every one bnt themselves. In a word the Government, In their hands, ever wsi strictly the minister to their own set fishness, and they have no nse for it lo any other capacity. Bo long salt could protect tbsir trade- interest* snd support tbeir views, it was a good thing, bnt not otherwise. The Hartford Oon vention and the Blue Lights in tha war of 1812, displayed their snlmns when they thought the Government polioy ant agonistic to their intereiU, snd tbeir bitter dennncisUons of tbe Constitu tion and Government, from 1835 to 18G0. as a "League with death and a Covenant with Hell” beoanse it was thought to uphold Afrloan sla very, shows bow they held the Government, when they deemed it antagonistic to their par- ttcalar ei'etri and doctrine* So loog as tbe Gov ernment inn on their errands it wa* a good boy, bat no longer. And sinae tbe grand seotional straggle per manently to cnbordinate the Government to the Interests, ambitions and coneeits of the dom - nsnt aeotion, tbs illustrations of the oontroling selfishness of tbe whole oonoern sre sbont ss thick and constant as the drops in a thunder shower. Hardly one after another, but almost all together, tbe patriot loyalists exposo them selves and their animus, and stand dlsolosed the exponents of a personal lari of dishonest acqusition snd domination wbiob would qualify them to represent any of the worst despotisms which oppress mankind. Ou the whole, ex perience proves Mr. Calhoun's theory. Toe American government has no better real foun dation than any other. But it Is when this counterbalance of selfish sohemes snd plots is deranged and destroyod in the tnrbnlcnce of war—tho trinmphs of one fac tion—the warlike oonflfots of numerous fao- tior.s to dominate over snd destroy each other— or tbe iron banded despotism of government Itself olad In tho panoply and fired with tbe spirit of war, that tbe unhappy people begin to resize the fail malignity of noobecked fe’flib- neas. Uf this cap we in the Sonthern States bare drank to ths dregs, snd we now eee its illustra tion in tbe oonnlrles of Europe. Germany is an rximplo of the latter oltas. Tbo poople are ooops of fighting-oocks all gaffed for tbe next main. France lies prostrate and bleeding in every household and family, on no batter rum MY than a school boy fight whtoh begins with the challenge, “knock th's chip off my shoulder if yon dare," rnd Frsnoe wound np the tragedy by a war of factions more dreadful than the dynrtllo quarrel. Spain ilmalratoa discord let loose and is bound for the abyss of a bloody anarchy; snd there is no tolling how or when the oonntcrchecks of human sellfi-hnees can possibly be re-established. France has founa them in the aspirations and the fears of tradi tional factions. Germany, Austria and Russia find quiet in the nndispnted triumph of their respective dynasties. We in tbe South snbmit to the lawless dominance of seotional mastery and find onr only politloa! inspiration in home straggles to save the relio of fort ones from total waste. “It is all a muddle'' at best, bat Btill nothing belter appears. THE GEORGIA PRESS. Oortw Fsnours.—The New York Bnlletin no'os tbe advaooe in ocerra freights, one cause of which, it says, ia tho inoreased business with foreign conntries; another tho unusually large number of vessels lost at sea, thus re ducing the amount of tonnage avail tble. It adds: “For tho last seven or eight years, the losses of sailing vessels have been five for every one bnilt. The nsnal number of vesiels lost daring the year is aboot fifteen hundred, bat daring 1872 tbe losses numbered two thousand six hundred and eighty three. These losses, of course, have had their effeds on the freight market, and also on tho business in ship build- ring. In regard to rates, ship-owners have now no esuto to complain of the market for their Teasels, and, if tbe present state of tbiogs con tinues. it is a matter of uncertainly of how high freight* will advanee. There has been a gradual inerdhse in ship building throughout the country for several years past, and hopes are entertained that a nearer approach to equali ty with England in a maritime sense will be only a matter of a few years. Strikes within (he pes( two years have greatly interrupted sh'p-bniUicg abroad. In the merchant navy of England there were twenty-three thousand one hundred and sixty-five vessels in 1870. bnt in 1872 there were only nineteen thousand one hundred snd eighty two. Io the Coited States daring the same period tb ire was a slight in crease.’’ Tiurauxcx is Tixixore—There is an open field for the Good Templars in Illinois. The State Temperance Union was appointed to meet in Jacksonville on the 15th, bnt only fonrteen delegates were present, of whom seven were from Jacksonville, so that no meeting was held. On the same day tbe prohibition organ at Detroit came lo an untimely end, its proprietor absoonding, leaving behind him a stack of un paid bills and a host of unpaid employes. Tbo temperance oanse in the West is far from hold ing it* own, partly owing the presenco of a large and liberal foreign element In the population, partly to the reaction against the rigid rales of the prohibitionists in localities where they have lately been in the majority, and largely to tbe squabbles among the temperanoe man them selves. [ HirawiT Paooaxss cs thx Usrnn Stjltzs.— The number of miles of railroad bnilt in the United States and territories in the decade end ing in 1840 wrs 3515; in that ending with 1850 it was jjOS ; in that ending with 18C0 it was 21,614; .'id In that ending with 1870 it was 22.7G4. The greatest number of miles con structed in any one year was in 1571, in which 7453 mllca were opened. The progress of ra'l- rosds was seriously interrnpted during ths war of eeeersion; for daring the four years of its oontiouanoe only 8273 miles were opened—4180 miles less than were opened in the year 1671. A hax named Moore, a representative of a Philadelphia jewelry lun, stopped ever Sundsj at a northern Vet moot town.

A correspondent of the Oolnmbos Sou has lately been in the Atlanta jail (on a visit) and had an interview with Malone, the murderer of young Phillips. We oopy a portion of the re port: My father often cornea to see me. I an an only child. I have been a wild boy, have given tbem mnch pain. Bat whatever I am and have been I love them. It Is because I know they suffer that my fate is so hard. I do not osre for myself.” “Have you their photograph?" I eshed, looking round at tbo walls hung with a few frameless paper plctnres. He opened a trank npon which he had been sitting and handed me a little pccket containing the two faces and a slip of piper. I held the pictures np to tbe sheet of light that came in through tbe narrow window. They looked down on that reckless And wretched man in an eloquent eomplaint. They re lied fondly on the sweet-eyed, laughing prattler—tho boy of prenrse—the rosy-faced, tender youth. Those speaking eves aeked where be eras, and fix. i their steady ftire on the prisoner under the awful sentence of the broken lav, “Thou shall not kill.” I was returning them with ths un opened slip of paper, when be told ne that was something his mother sent him.
