But this wam not all. The moat extensive ftreab are swept over large district* of oountry, actually consuming fence*, dwelling*, and a Teat amount of timber.

The report, however, Ueka foundation. The theory that the araoke and heat of Urge firs will produoe rain, aeema to have been ver* ifled on L*>ng Island. All of the late oonflagra- tioni were apeedily followed by ooplons rain faPf and repeated showers. To this oanae, the farmers owe relief from the terrible drought, whloh had well nigh rained tbslr crop*. Il would appear, therefore, that we have been aojojlng a monopoly of all the moisinre in the country, save in the far Northwest. And still the heaven* continue to weep, and there ap pear* to be no limit to the water anpply. The theory of oompeoaation and equilibrium in weather accounU mnat Inanre a dry fall. Crops—Hat n. From ell quarters now oomes the report of abundant rains in Georgia and flourishing crops. Ooe small oorner of Jasper only, we learn np to yesterday, was still suffering from drought. The •m crop is made, and will be exceedingly Abundant. So far as the atatfstio* of the seve ral oooutles have oome In from the Tax Re- osivera' returns, the acreage fn corn the present •sir Is also agreeably Urge—much more so than we Lave been Jed to believe. Thun, in Randolph, it Is nearly acre for acre with that of cotton, and the proportion does not vary greatly in the other oonntiea heard from. Ootton Is small, bat reported nnasuslly foil of fruit Tho oaterpilUrs seem to be on the in crease, bnt have done no damage as yet. Plan* tan are supplying themselves liberally with the exterminator, and so far It seems to have proved t complete suooess. One hand can sprinkle the • mixture over four acres per day, by means of a species of sifter, atUohed to a long handle. The excessive wet weather is very favorable for the propagation of the insect, bnt on the whole the outlook may be oorsldered cheerful. Adulteration of Gnano* The Peruvian Government has commenced suit against five of the heaviest New York firms, for the fraudulent adulteration and sale of im* ported guanos. The method pursued was to purchase the original old bags with the genuine brand upon them, and then fill np with Hpnrioni •arthy matter and other foreign substances, tbs whole not containing more than five or aix per cent, of ammonia. In 1879 13,000 tons of genuine guano were received from Pern, whloh should average about llperoent. of pure ammonia. To give some idea of the extent of the frauds inflicted upon the o man mem of this article, an analysis of the stocks of ten of the principal dealers, showed that rix were selling the spurious. It is to be hoped they will be made to pay dearly for doing so. The Neigh of the Old Anil-ilnvery War Horae—Gerrlt Smith on Cnbsn Freedom and Annexation. This old reprobate not content with aiding so largely In fomenting a war, whloh deluged the nation in fraternal blocd, and has borne the epas fruit only of ruin and misery, now elevates bis voioe on the 4 th cf July in behalf of the Cuban insurgents, and more African annexation. Bo great Is his enthnsiasm on the subject, that he fairly kicks ont of the Kadioal traces, be cause the government d>es not aooord belliger ent rights to the Cabana, and permits Spanish vessel* to be bnllt In oar ship yards. "Why is U," says he, "that onr government has not lived op to the requirements of its own law? Why is it that It has suffered vessels of war to go from onr shipyards against the Cubans, and this too, while sparing no pains to shut ont all pity and all suooor from these oppressed and out- rtged brethren ? I hope it is for some worthier r^mcn that, to propitiate s nation by helping her to sacrifice her oolony. Nevertheless, what good reasen osn we plead* for helping Spain to prolong ala very in Cuba and to carry on whole sale murder there ? Cuba, he claim* to be already, by force of geographical position, and indissoluble com mercial ties, virtually "a part of onr oountry." With a return, too, of his old higher law In stincts, the rabid orator arraigns and denounce* international law ai follows: Is it said that international law forbids cur helping the Caban ? If it does, then away with international law. If international law thus wars upon onr nature and demand* the sup pression of Its righteous sympathy, then ao- esmed be intsrnatioual law. That is law which harmonizes with nature. That is no law, which doea violeuoo to natnre. Strictly speaking, tha world has not, as yet, international law. Each nation decide* for herself how she shall deal with other nations. But let me here say that I believe there will be, and that too at no distant <ky. a real international law—one that shall express the joint and just and fraternal sense of all the leading nations. He oonoludea by saving, in this strange and aad default of the Government, the people must take this Cuban matter into thoiv own hands, uni "cry in the ears of thrioe guilty, thrice barbarous, ihrioe bloody Spain, the words c f Jehovah to Pharoah: Let my peoplo go 1 Let my people g^ !" It will be seen the old marplot is now a pretty considerable rebel. What a pity he don't go and oast in his lot with those dear patriots whoee first set he a’leges was to proclaim liber ty to the poor slave. We have no specs] fancy for effete Spain, weak, turbulent and vacillating as she is, but if the crusade again-t her dominion in Cuba is to tura upon the emancipation question, then let the Don* role forever. We already have nig ger ad nausrurm open onr stomachs, and more of the same dose might in luce black vomit. It is said, however, the Oortes have recently passed an (mancipation edict. If so, let them fight it out among themselves, or send equal aid to both sides that the fate cf the Kilkenny oats may be theirs. We have no enthusiasm for Cuba. Bayameui lixiciXTiLX Coeda—We invite at tention to the bmstnaes notions of several prom inent Savannah ootton firms, the at3nt couriers of the teaeon. Theee gentlemen are all representative mer chants, sod offer vary aetiafaotory inducements to planters and shippers. We know them all personally, and can vouch for their reliability and business qualification A SriiTWa Morm's SriczDB.—The earpeee which were found on the 23i instant, off Ea* Twenty-eighth street ware those of Margarat Crawford and her child.

T. Sun. The Women to the Front* At Long Branch it has be oome fashionable for fast ladies to drive their own turnouts, which they do "seeundem art&m," handling the rib bons as deftly as the most adroit "whip" in the country. Borne of their equipages are very elegant, and natty ladies with natty vehicles drawn by natty steeds, are to be met on every aide. The Jenkinses aff« ct to admire (his spectacle very mneb, and are ever ready lo extol the per- fonoir.oe* cf these Jehus in petticoat*.

At Saratoga they smokeoigarettee on the pnblio promenades, and in the daily union prayer meeting (tho writer has heard them; mike long prayers and violent harangue*, usu ally against some pet grievance or in favor of certain reforms of Iheir own devising. What next ? With women at tie bar, female M D 's, lecturers, preachers, politicians, voters, carriage drivers and soldiers, (vide GoL Wood- bull) for man, Othello's occupation will be no more; and we suppose the next progressive step will be the demand fer a perpetns) leap year, and the asrampticn of the right to do all the oourtirg. But, in the name of Jalfa* Ca «ar, what is then to become of the children? Tbeirdiddieo, so called, can't an chic them, and their hands are too heavy for the spanking busines*. Nei ther can the average man thread, or btndto a fine cambric needle, and pat the muslins, dress the flower-pots, etc. But, we suppose, where there is a strong-minded woman's tsd t there is a way. And we shall be foroed to improvise nanoygost mothers for our erying babies, spank them with Japanese fans, get behind or inside of our own carriage, while madam holds the rains, and to hide the white flag in the rear dis played from dilap'dited pants, learn to handle the needle—even if It be magnified to the pro portions of the shoemaker's awl. We shall also be forced to submit, with the best possible grace, to the candidacy for Congress and the Legislature, of our wives, and cry "bear, hear," when they orate on tho hustings, and listen, with tearful eyes and sinking hearts, to thoir pulpit thunders. In short, as the female star is to be in the SBoendant, why that of the tyrant, man, most, of conrse, pale before it, and he should be content to await, with patienoe, that obaoa, and general smash-up of all mundane things, which is bound to take plaoe under her Jealous And capricious rule. When that event takes plaoe, and madam is in violent hysteric*, and Insensible to the old remedies, can de co logne and hartshorn, he can then oome to the rescue, and quote Scripture to prove that " Wo man was made for the man, and not man for the womanand show that tho injunction, "Wives submit yourselves unto your husbands" ha* some meaning in it. But, thank heaven, thus far tho women of the South havo not unflexed thorn selves, but are still the gentle, confiding, loving guardian an gels of their husbands and brothers, who acknowledge their infinite superiority in al l that is pore and lovely, and do them homage with knightly courtesy. Moreover, they have the wit to know bow best to maintain their do minion over the hearts of their sponses, by adorning their own spberea of usefulness, and making home and the fireside the dearest spot on earth, by the display of those oharms and oomforta which she alone oan create and dis pense, and whloh are all powerfal in their in fluence. In her legitimate position woman's em pire is absolute. Out of it, she becomes an in congruous hermaphrodite nondescript, despised by all and without the ability to inspire affec tion or oommand respect. THE GEORGIA PR KM. Rnmored Strike of the Employes of the Central Railroad. A paragraph in the Atlanta Herald speaks of a proposed strike among the laborers and em ployes of the Maoon and Western Railroad, be cause of a reduction in their wages. It is currently reported here also, that oil the hands on the Central and Southwestern, havo resolved upon the same stop. We trnst this painfal rumor is without found ation. These honest people should remember that the owners of railroads have families to support as well as themselves, and are com pelled to be prudent and eoonomioal in a dnll time, like the present. They onght to know that the Central Road has been foroed to bor row money to make a dividend to its stockhold ers, and that justice and stern necessity alone oonld make the managers redaoe their wages, if, indeed, such is their determination. Almost every merchant, workshop, and busi ness office in the oountry must, of. necessity, retrench in the dnll season, and theirs is no ex ceptional case. Perhaps, with increased bus iness and greater prosperity in the winter months, higher wages will again be paid. In the meantime what good will be accom plished, and how mnch misery inevitable if the workmen persist in these strikes ? At a time when so many laborers are ont of employment all over the country, the probability is that the company can supply their plaoes from abroad without difficulty. In that event there is at least a possibility that even if willing to resame dnty, their services will be dispensed with per manently. These remarks are made in the kindest spirit, and not at the solicitation of the railroad au thorities. We have no interest directly or in directly in the matter, bnt merely wish to re store peace and good will between the owners and employes. _ Plain Talk. The Grangers are refreshingly plain in their resolutions. There is no machine ring about the following, passed by a farmers* meeting held at Clifton, IU.t Resolved, That we believe a thief should be called a thief, without regard to social or polit ical standing, and we characterise the recent salary grab by onr Congress and President as no better than a steal." Nor is there any ambiguity in the following mottoes inscribed on the banners of the farm ers who oalebrated Independence Day at La nark. in Carrol! county, II: “No more Republicans! No more Demo crat* ! We want and most have honest men to fill public positions." 7 IT ATT AT ‘Salary grabbers, hunt your holes 1” 'Salary cf car Congressman, one hundred barbels of oorn a day. Poor fellow!" They mght have added that the salary of President Grant is over six hnndred bushels of oorn a day, with boose, fnel, lights, stable*, and grounds free. Poor fellow!—IT. Y. Sun. Tux LnoTiTioxs to Journalism nr Russia — It ***018 that there are countries where the public cannot with impunity be treated to every royal or imperial remark uttered within hearing of a reporter. The editor of a Russian j onr oat baa lately been brought before a court of justice for printing, withont leave from the proper au thority. four words addressed by the Czar to the Khirgtatan envoy, Mabommed Saltan. The W orda were: "Ah! yon speak Russian." It was urged In defense of the editor that the prohibi tion to print without leave from the minister of the imperial court only applied to each words as conveyed an intimation of the sovereign s will, whereas this was a simple expression of good-will, and that the complaint hai not been preferred by that oximeter, but only bv th* com mittee of the censors of the press. These pleas were not, however, accepted, and the publica tion of the interesting little item had to be atoned for by a fine and ten day a imprisonment. A Li it r a Knowtedok is a Daxokeous Tnuco. In the Supreme Court Chambers to-day John T. Redmond, Thomas F.

The Atlanta Herald, of yesterday, says: The firemen and wood-passers ou the Maoon and Western railroad, to the number of about one hundred and fifty, have resolved to strike against the reduction of wages wbiohis proposed to be made after to-day on that road. The notioe* have been po«ted by the authorities that a re duction won'd be made on their wages after the 1st of August. The following is from the Atlanta Herald After breakfast yesterday morning, in the ar cade of the Kimball House, ooourred an uuns- nal scene, and one franght with many recollec tions by the parties immediately interested. Nearly sixty years ago Mr. John Neal, cf thl* city, and Col. W. H. Sparks, of New Orleans, but at present spending the summer months here, were frolicking and light-hearted school bojs in Warren county, in this State. What a gap in a man'* life ia sixty yean! What changes 1 What vicissitudes and what freaks o.W Time has played with these two venerable schoolmates! Both have now nearly reached four score years, and have already lived above the allotted time of man. Yet the warm friend- ahip engendered in yonth ha* never cooled declining yearn, and the seutimentAlities of their boyhood days still linger around the heart* of these aged friends, and, a* above stat'd. Judge Daniel Pittman, the son in-law of Mr. Neal, wa* commissioned by that gentleman to present to CoL Spark* a neat gold-headed oane. as a token of continued love and esteem. A* Judge Pittman banded the little memento to Col. Sparks, with the message from his old friend, the eyes of the gallant old Colonel swelled with silent tears, and whoa he attempted to return hi* thank* they chased each other down hi* ven erable oheek*. The affair wa* witnessed by several gentlemen who were present, and all were struck with the peonliar mark of senti ment existing between these two old school mates of sixty years ago, and the fanoy of the poet naturally welled np in the heart* of all present; for— “ Thera'* a beautiful isle in the Long Ago, All fi toiled with golden light; And a river that glides by the magie shore Whore waters are wondrous bright. And a bark that moves with anowy tails. And the music of silver oar. That carries ua back to the shining gates Of that beautiful pact once more! And every heart holds some sweet dream Of a beau iful Long Ago." A whites, in the Milledgeville Union and Recorder, whoaigns himself " Jones Conn ty,” show* by the following that the people of Jones have a b&rbecavrioni way of enjoying them selves 2 On the 10th of 1his month, the farmers and neighbors met a. Damas’ Store for the purpose of enj ijruent and pleasure. Like good soldiers, we had fought man fally for two months to con quer oar threatening foe, “Gen. Grass," at one t»me it really appeared as if we shonld be whipped; when the opportunity offered cur foroes ralliod and gave the death blow. Like all ought to do, at least enoe a year, the propo sition wa* made for a gathering and dinner. In a abort time ample arrangements were mide for a barbeoue. 'Tis useless for me to say the good ladies joined ns in onr preparation for the did- ser, bringing a sample of their good knowledge of housekeeping; there was a bountiful supply of nioe things prepared for more than we had present. Not only was onr neighborhood gathered together, bnt many representatives from all parts of oar county, together with mnoh of the beanty and intelligence of onr sister counties, from Fntnam, Baldwin and Jasper. Every one caine determined to have enjoyment; there was no labor spared to make the day one of pleasure. I don't think there was one who left disappointed. I never witnessed a dinner whero everything passed off so well. The young men did their best for the enjoyment of the ladies. At halfpast ten the order of the day was Announced by Capt. O. Tafts, who intro duced Mr. Johny Williams to the crowd. Mr. Williams delivered an original address, to the yonng people specially. Mr. W. performed his part well, setting forth the duties of the yenng people of the present day; he ooncarred with the sensible idea that our yonng people should not cling to the plan of waiting for something to tnrn np, bnt adopting tha old Latin maxim, "labor omnia vincet." If our yonng men would take Mr. W.’s advice, instead of abusing fate for depriving them of tbeir lost fortune*, we woald have many intelligent farmer* from tha rank* of the yonng men who are now hanting shady ard easy places. After Mr. Williams, Mr. B. W. Jenkins, formerly of Eatonton, was introduced to the audience. Mr. Jenkins, who wa* raised in wealth and ease, instead of wait ing for one of those easy plaoes behind a coun ter. pat on bis armor and entered the important rank among our farmers. I wish more of the intelligent young men would follow hi* exam ple. I scarcely know what to say of Mr. Jen kins* speech, for fear I may not give him juatioe. It was carefully prepared and well delivered, be did honor to himself and eredit to hi* snbjeot. There was no politics diseased, he plainly and intelligently proved to all what capacities the mind properly trained and wall directed could acquire. He entertained the erowd agreeably and instructively, giving many compliment* to our noble ladies. A splendid dinner being now ready, all gathered around a bountiful table ell spread with meats and delioadea by our noble ladies. At the end of dinner Heaven smiled on ns with a gentle shower and all were quickly hurrying for shelter. It wa* amusing to have seen one of our good old farmer* of about sixty, making a force raoe of about a hundred yards to save himself from the rain. The balanoe of the evening was spent in social mingling of all age*. The timid young men were oornering the fair ladiea, whispering sweet pleasures of the anticipated future. Onr crop* are poor, with a prospect of improvement from the present ahowers. I will close by hoping for such a barbecue at least once a year. BY TELEGRAPH. OAT DISPATCHES.

WGliamt, Attorney Generali 8xb—After oar conference with yoa we pro ceeded to Long Branch, and were promptly ac- ooided an interview with General Grant, which in all respects cordial and satisfactory. The President expressed views of olemency similar to those previously expressed by you, nnd said be woald sdirers yoa a note defining the pres ent policy of the Government in relation to prosecutions and prisoners under the Enforce* ment act. We beg to renew the suggestions already made, that the purposes of the Government,: i the premises, be made public, so tost all con cerned, particularly refugees, may have authen tic information from tbe proper official source by which they may be able to govern themselves. Such official announcement will, in our opinion, produce a great sense of relief. We are, with great reaped, your obedient servants, w. D. Pobtkb, J. B. Kershaw, W. R. M. Sims. Tbe Attorney General's Reply. Dzpabimzrt cf Justice, ) Washington, D. 3., Jnly 31, 1873 j lo Metnrt. Porter, Kershaw and Sint, ’Wash ington : Gextlzmzn—Your letter of jesterday irtend- ed to elicit from me a public expreation of the policy of the government in relation to the proeecwtioo of priaooers under the enforcement acta, is received. 4 I have to say, in answer, as indicated in his conversation w»th you, tbe President has oom- ■.anicated to me, what I have heretofore under stood to be his wish, that the persons ace—ad end eonviotod of offeoaaa under said sots should bo treated with .as mnoh ;leniency as possible, withont prejudice to the ends for which they wore passed. It most, however, be drstinatty nsdezvtocd that this action by tbe Government is oat prompted by sny doabt as to the necessity or validity of taid sets, cr of the necessity and justice of the convictions already bod under them, to prevent and pnniah high crimes; bnt by the belief that the Kaklux have, through said convictions, been almost if not altogether broken np, and that those who were oonoerned or sympathised with them have oome to see the folly, wickedness and danger of snch organ:/, tions. Yon have been pleased to say to me, and sim liar assurances have been given by others seek ing the same olject, that executive clemency at tbe time, on Knklnx, would tend to remove many erases of uneasiness and irritation no exiting and conduce generally to the pnblio peace and trandaility, and the proposed action is taken, in reference* to snoh oases, with the fall expectance that this a assurances will be verified. Yoa are informed that tbe prosecution* now pending in oonrts for violation of the enforce ment sots will be suspended, or dicoontinned, and instructions to that effect have already been given to several Distriot Attorneys; but there may be exceptional cases, of great aggravation, where the Government will insist upon convio tton and punishment There are, however, but few of snch oases now within my know ledge. Persons who have absented themselves, on aoooont of tbeir compiioity, or supposed complicity, in Knklnx offense*, are at liberty to return, and anless thoir orimes bring them within the above named exceptional oases, they will not be presented. Many of ihofe sentence 1 to imprisonment for snob oflcL^. have already been pardoned, and the oases of the others are under oonsider- tion and will probably be disposed of in like manner, keeping in view the proper relation of their guilt. To avoid any misconstvaolion of those pro ceedings, it is perhaps moessary for me to say that all conspiracies acd outrages, in violation of said acts hereafter oommittod will prosecuted with all possible energy and vigor, and it ia us be understood that the government does not intend to abandon said acts, bnt to induoe, if possible, a willing obedience to their reasonable require ments. Substantially they are intended to pro* tcot citizens of tbe Uoitod States in the posses sion and enjoyment of their political and so cial rights guaranteed to them by the late amendments to the Constitution, and the Presi dent, whose dnty it is to see that the laws are faithfully executed, woald be reoreant to that da^y if he did not so aminister the Government as to afford to all oltiz&ns the cqnal protection of Its laws. I have added these suggestions to the infor mation for whioh you ask with a sincere hope that by tbe exercise of n mutual recognition of eaoh others rights, by all desses of people, no farther necessity will arise for their protection and enforcement under said ac!s, through the aotion of the General Government.

An Exciting Scene i* A Boston Court—An exciting scene was enacted In the Sapreme Coart &t Bostoo, Tuesday, in whioh a oase, fail ing of adjustment in the regnlar process of law, was poetically rectified by the sympathetic by standers. The bone of contention was a yonng Irish girl, Hannah Slatterly, aged sixteen, who had been living in the family of William Ed wards of Sonthbridge, and who had recently renounced the Roman Catholio faith, and joined the Baptist Church. The mother, who is a Catholic, S3ught to reoover porsesrion of her child on a writ of habeas oorpns, bnt the Jndge dismissed the petition on the ground that he had xio jurisdiction, as the girl was not re strained of her liberty. The friends of the mother then attempted to remove her by foroe, but were prevented by the bystanders, whose sympathies bad been aroused in behalf of the girl. The excitement now grew intense, tbe crowd, representing largely the legal profes sion, and including the Sheriff, insisting that the girl had a perfect right to follow whoever she chose, bnt no one was willing to take the harden of inteifering. At this point some of the mo3t ardent sympathisers of the girl had a hack driven np the back entrance of the conrt- honse. and, while some of the number engaged Mrs. Slatterly and her friends in conversation, another party teld the. girl to fiee through the rear entrance of the court-room and jamp into the carriage in waiting. The anggeetion was instantly acted upon, and, with a rash, Hannah bounded down tbe s&mo. steps that, about twenty years ago, Anthony Borns fl-d to escape tbe slave hounds who were clamoring for his life, and was soon driven to a plaoe of safety. What the final result will be, so far as the girl is concerned, cannot now be determined.— Springfield Republican* Reconstructed and Loyal South Caro lina —it seems that military authority is still paramount over the civil in South Carolina. ; Li!eat.
