\ ITIaller of Deep Interest Wot Only to
iTIillrrfgeville but to Every Section of
Kcorgia.
We call the attention of our city fathers to-day to
the fact that the principal cities in the State are pre
paring for united action, in pressing upon Congress
the importance of lending aid in the construction of
the Atlantic and Great Western Canal. We do not
believe that there is any difference of opinion as to
the vast importance of this great proposed work upon
the future prosperity of Georgia, and so strong a
hold has it taken upon the minds of the practical busi
ness men, not only of the South but of the great
West, that its construction involves only a question of
time. It is in fact a great national necessity, and
sooner or later it will be built; and it certainly be
hooves us. as those directly interested in its early
completion to leave no legitimate means untried
which may aid in the early consummation of so de
sirable an object.
The surveys have been completed, and the work
has not only been found feasible, but it has been as
certaiaed that the whole, including the clearing out
and improvement of the rivers, can be accomplished
for a sum -something less than twenty millions of dol
lars—that portion of the work in Georgia costing
something over half the above sum. We have ascer
tained, beyond doubt, one grand fact, that the State
of Georgia possesses not only the best but the only cer
tain, cheap and unobstructed water route for the trade
of the West to markets beyond the Atlantic Ocean-
Hide is of great importance, and the fact alone is al
ready attracting to Georgia the attention not only of
the business men of our own country, but those of
Europe who are desirous of extending their trade re
lations on this side of the Atlantic. Could we secure
the carrying trade that centers at St. Loui.salone.it
would be worth to our people annually at least ten
millions of dollars. A sum of itself sufficient to give a
prosperity to the State hitherto unprecedented. But
there are other advantages to us growing out ofthis
matter even more important than those already men
tioned. If .Macon is the eastern terminus of the canal,
it would for all practical purposes transfer St. Louis to
Macon, so far as our merchants are concerned. Giv
ing us the advantage of cheap freights upon all heavy
articles to and from the West, and what is most de-
sitable to a cotton-growing region cheap provision,
and consequently cheap labor. With these and the
splendid water power which we possess in the Oconee
river, what should prevent our becoming an impor
tant manufacturing point. The cotton will be at
hand. A great market for the purchase of cheap pro
vision at the nearest point of contact with the canal,
and the means of sending off to market whatever the
country produces at rates sufficiently low to allow the
producer a living profit upon his labor. These great
advantages must bring proportionate prosperity to us
and realize what we have long desired, not only an
increase in the production of cotton, but in the fac’li-
ties for manufacturing it iu the section where it is pro
duced.
It is very true the building of this canal may not,
and probably will not, make Milledgeville another
Buffalo, Rochester or Chicago, but it will do this : It
will give us all the advantages that cheap transporta
tion can give, and will enable us to become not only
the distributing center for a large section of produc
tive country, but a manufacturing point of no small im
portance. Now these are advantages that we may just
ly and confidently lock for, and not only us but every
town within forty, fifty, and even one hundred miles of
the canal can enjoy similar advantages proportionate
with their valuable surroundings.
We see that other cities are already moving in this
matter by selecting their best men to visit Washing
ton City as a body of representatives directly from the
people to press the matter upon the attention of Con
gress. We earnestly hope that our City Council wi 1
send some good man to represent Milledgeville in this
matter, and to unite with these gentlemen in repre
senting the whole State of Georgia upon a question of
such vital importance to our future prosperity. Mil
ledgeville is equally interested with Atlanta, Macon,
Rome and Savannah in the question of progress, and
we should see to it that that interest is properly repre
sented. Some may think that there is no necessity for
this. They are mistaken. Nothing was ever gained
by inaction. We should, by ail means, strengthen
the hands of the friends of this measure by every
means in our power, and not sit quietly by expecting
to leap the fruits of another man’s labor. Mr. Mayor
and gentlemen of the Council, let us have such a rep
resentation, and the day is not distant when the whole
people will approve your action.
The New Hampshire Election.
As we predicted before it took place, the Radicals
claim a victory in New Hampshire. We have no idea
that a majority of the voters of New Hampshire are
.in favor of the present Administration ; but a repu
ted victory in that State was necessary to insure Gen.
Grant's renomination, and we felt sure he would get
it by hook or by crook. To secure this victory the
Administration have been guilty of many mean and
dishouest tricks, to which honorable men would never
stoop. They have sent hundreds of men there from
Washington Ciiy and other places to vote. They sent
thousands of dollars there to buy votes and to bribe
voters. They colonized a large nnmber of voters
about the navy yard at Portsmouth for weeks before
the election, so that they could use them on the day ot
the election. They threatened the wounded soldiers
with a stoppage of their pensions if they voted the
Democratic ticket. Besides every Post Master, every
Collector of the internal Revenue, every man in the
State who held an office or who wanted an office, was
not only compelled to vote the Radical ticket but was
forced to work like a dray horse for the party. With
all of this cheating, bribing and threatening they only
beat the Democracy about 1500 votes. The wonder
is that they did not beat them more. In a fair contest
we believe the Democracy have a majority of full
five thousand in the State- All of our hopes for de
feating Grant in the Presidential election, hangs upon
I lie fact that in that election the voting in all of the
States is done all the same day, and it will be impos
sible for the administration to operate with much effect
in all of the States on the 6ame day. This election
will probably help Grant to a nomination in June, but
will have no effect ou his election.
COTTON.
Up to Saturday March 9th, 1872, the Exchange Tel
egrams (New Orleans Times) make the receipts of
Cotton as follows: At all the ports for the past week,
49,146 against 133,494 for same week last year. Total
receipts since August 31st, 2,285,811 bales against
3,034,725 last year, showing a decrease to March 9th of
748,914 bales. For the week ending Friday, March
15lh receipts at all the ports 53,406 bales, same time
last year 104,574. Total to March 16th 2,339,217;
last year 3,139,299. showing a decrease of 800 082.
We notice in the Macon Telegraph of March 16th
that the total receipts to March 15th were 2,351,588;
last year 2,908,874, showing a decrease of only 549,286
bales. How is that Mr. Telegraph & Messenger 1
Swedes as I,ii borers iu Hancock County’
Mr. Ii. L. Middlebrooks ofCulverton, Hancock
county writes to the Times and Planter that his
experiment with Swede laborer! has been a com
plete success. He has a man of all work and two
women for all kinds of house duties. He says af-
ter three months experience he finds them faithful
and agreeable house servants. No salks, inso
lence or discontent, and he endorses them as hon
est, faithful,iudus’rious and reliable and withal ex
tremely kind to children. Ignorance of our lan
guage is an annoyance at first, but is soon got over
as the Swedes soon learn to understand what yon
want done. We suppose there are some good and
some bad among the Swedes like all other people,
and Mr. Middlebrooks drew a prize. As a nation
the Swedes are said to be honest, industrious, and
amiable.
The Telegraph and Messenger of Sunday says
that contracts for building the Ocmulgee and
North Georgia Road right through from Macon to
Knoxville have been made with responsible par
ties in New York, who will go to work as soon the
light of way i» secured—probably 0 n or abont the
1st ot May next. The ability of the contractors to
carry their engagements through is certified to by
Win. B. Johnston, Esq., of that place.
New Humpxbire Election.

The Labor Keforiu Convention—General
Grant's STcliaiicc.
The nomination of Davis and Parker for President
and Vice President by the Labor Reform Convention
gives great uneasiness to the Grant-Radicals, and
well it may. If the Convention of the liberal Repub
licans who will meet in Convention iu May, and the
Democratic Convention should both adopt the sum--
ticket, it will be very likely to defeat Gen. Giant’s as
pirations for a second term. His hopes now rest upon
the office-holders and those who expect office; but
these are a host of themselves. Their name is legion,
and they will woik for Grant’s re-elec’ion with perfect
desperation. Honest men from pure patriotism nevei
have and never will work lor a good cause with such
vim and headlong abandon and recklessness as villians
will work to retain a fat office where they are allowed
to steal and plunder to their heart’s content. These
fight like pirates with the prospect of chains and the
gallows before them. It is neck or nothing with the
Grant Radicals. They know they have sinned past
forgiveness, and they fight wi ll ropes about their
necks. If desperate means are necessary to save
them from defeat they will use desperate means, and
we may look for fraud, bribery, corruption and intimi
dation at the next Presidential election in new forms
and on a scale such as we have never seen before.
This host of office-holders, like Satan and his angels,
will be hard to overcome; but if the people of the
United States are fit for self-government they will be
overcome and routed. A horde ot pampered office
holders in all ages and countries have been the instru
ments which tyrants have used to help them enslave
the people. Gen. Grant seems to he well aware of
their usefulness in this respect, and therefore employs
every means in his power to increase their numbers
and to attach them to his person.

Messrs. Editors : Tam interested in the cracks and
falling of the plaster in the Kimball Opera House so.
called capital building. My interest extends to the
amount of personal safety. For over twenty years 1
have been in attendance upon the sitting ot the Legis
lature. and always felt safe iu the firm old substantial
building of Milledgeville, but your article in your lasj
issue has made me fearful. Be so kind as to keep the
people posted about the condition of the Opera House.
Call upon the Atlanta papers weekly to report said
condition, and duriug the session of the Legislature

GEN. BEAUREGARD.
If Nathaniel Bacon had had a suitable and truth
ful chronicler of his “Great Rebellion” in Vhgiu-
ia in the year 1076, so that his side of the story
could have come down to us with all the garni
ture which bedecks the triumphant Gov. Berke
ley 8 version of the affair, the truth of the history
of that early “Lost Cause” would have been paint,
ed to succeeding generations iu brighter colors
than it has been fated to possess. That the cause
was a righteous one, and was crushed, is neverthe
less sufficiently apparent to all readers of the Co
lonial History of Virginia. Even Bancroft, a
right loyal hater of the “Rebellion” of 1861 5 in
his History of the United States, seems absolutely
in love with the remote Virginian “Rebellion.”—
One is reminded of the Spelling-Book story of the
farmer’s ox that was gored by the lawyer’s bull.
We are rejoiced to know that the Southern side
of the grand story of “The War between the
States” is told, or is to be told, by faithful and in
telligent Southern chroniclers who, in high places
were personal actors in the great drama. The
Northern press has been prolific during the War
aud ever since in manufacturing their own history
—in great part an ideal history. Thank God !—
Southern pens—pens of able and prominent ac-
lors in the scenes who are known to possess both
truthfulness and means of knowing whereof they
wiite—are engaged in the laudable task of pre
senting the events of the South's great and heroic
struggle to be free in just colors.
We have been led to these reflections by read
ing i nthat ablest of Dixie's monthlies,The South
ern Magazine, Gen. Beauregard’s “Notes on E.
A. Pollard's 'Lost Cause,’ ” A series of these pa.
pers is now appearing in the Southern Magazine
correcting the very numerous errors into which Mr
Pollard's carelessness or prejudice betrayed him,
and making a record of facts based in the main up
on his own personal knowledge. In this connex
ion we may also remark that Cen. Joseph E.
Johnston has likewise prepared a history of the
many and important events in which he bore such
worthy part, which will in due time be given to
the public.

Col. Scott evidently means work. It is barely two
weeks since he was elected to the Presidency of the
Texas Pacific Railroad, and already a bill lias been in
troduced into the United States Senate, which changes
the name of the company to the “ Texas and Southern
Pacific,” empowers it to issue construction and land
bonds for such amounts as may be considered needful,
invests it with certain important mortgage powers,
and provides that two hundred miles of the road shall
be constructed westerly within two years, and that the
whole road shall be completed within ten years from
the passage of i he act The fact that the bill provides
that the construction of the road shall commence at
Marshall, Texas, is perhaps significant, for the reason
that that town will in all probability constitute the
Southern terminus of the contemplated railroad
through the Indian Territory, should the speculators
now operating at Washington succeed in carrying
their point.— Pittsburgh Commercial.
Widening the Breach,—New York. March
13 — A Washington dispatch says that the recal
citrant Republicans decided yesterday to send a
Senator, probably Tipton, to Cincinnati to confer
with the leaders of the Liberal Republican Con
vention. Sumner, Schurz, Fenton, Trumbull, and
Tipton have had repeated conferences, and have
agreed riot to abide by the action of the PhiladeU
pliia Convention if it nominates Grant, but look to
Cincinnati for a candidate. Sumner is understood
to favor Davis.
Fortune Telling and it?) Consequences 1 —
The Greenville (Miss ) Times thus briefly sums up
a fortune-telling case in Mississippi :
“Henry Barlow having had his fortune told, it
was revealed to him that Louis Harris was to kill
him. Whereupon he undertook to thwart destiny,
and announced that he would kill Louis Harris ;—
then Louis Harris laid for Henry Barlow and
fetched him with a load of buck shot. Louis,
having-thus established his justification, was re
leased by Justics Griffiu.”
Russian Proverbs.—Every fox praises his
own tail. Go after two wolves, and you will not
catch one. A good beginning is half the work. A
debt is adorned by payment Roguery is the last of
trades. Never take a crooked path while you can
see a straight one. Fear not the threats of the
great but rather the tears of the poor. Ask a pig
to dinner, and he will put his feet on the table.—
Disease comes in by hundred-weights and goes
out by ounces. Every little frog is great in his
own bog. An old friend is worth two new ones.
Be praised not for your ancestors, but for your
virtues. A father's blessing can not be drowned
in water nor consumed by fire.
One Pipe of Tobacco.—James Lynch, aged
seventeen, and Edward Callahan, nineteen years
old, are members of the notorious ‘Shooter Hill"
outlaws. Last night, at about seven o’clock, as
Lynch was passing tho ugh Twenty-fourth street,
near Second avenue, New York, he met Callahan.
“Hello, Ed,” said Lynch, “give me a pipeful of
tobacco, will you 7”
“I've got only one pipeful,” replied Callahan,
“and I want that myself.”
Lynch importuned him for the tobacco, which
irritated Caliahnn.
“If you don't go away,” said Callahan, with an
eath, “and let me alone, I’ll cut you.”
Lynch laughed and replied : “Your old knife

RIP.tK NOTICE.
POETIS. IJy at ret Uurte. iSo»iou:
EC. Oa-ttoil &: Compaaj, IS7I.
Every newspaper reader in the United States ha?
read “The Heathen Chinee.” At least, we presume
an. We are quite sure every newspaper iu the United
States published it.
These several millions of readers (to say nothing of
un bookish editors who published it) would he sur
prised to know that the title Bret Uarte gives to that
little “dialectic” poem is “Plain Language from
Truthful James.” Excellent as that poetn is, in its
reflection of the rough life and rough language of the
rude mining districts of California, we do sot consider j
it the best or most characteristic to be found iu the
little volume whose title is placed at the head of this
article. We regard “ In the Tunnel.” and “Cicely,”
and “ Dow's Flat” as better reflections nfthatpeeu
bar aspect of California life they are designed to por
tray than the more popularized poem. The other
poems not m dialect are. very many of them, of high
merit. All of them stamp the author as a real poet,
characterized by sutlicieut originality of genius to
give him a distinctive aud permanent niche in the tem-
pie of Apollo. Among these we may mention “The
Mountain Heart’s Ease’’ where the holy heart-love of
the pure and the beautiful in nature breathes out in
even more charming expression than in so many ex
quisite prose passages of “ The Luck of Roaring
Camp.” And what could present a truer and love
lier picture of the heart of a genuine woman—not of
the feminine shams ot the day wiio so often pass f >r
women—than “ Her Letter?” It has the ring of the
•• Goldtn Age” about it, in more senses than one.—
And how charming the story of old “John Burns of
Gettysburg”—not less charming because the antique
ted warrior fought with our foes on that bloody field
Heroic valor rises higher than the smoke of battle, and
compels the admiration of friends and foes alike.
We believe the attempt is made to classify Bret
Harte's prose writings among those of immoral ten
dency- We dissent trom such classification ; but sure
ly among “ the unco guid aud the rigidly righteous”
none will assail his l’oems. The volume is a necessary
addition to the library of every gentleman who would
attempt to keep up with the literary progress of the
day.

What 1*}-pep-in .tl.i] Liiii Iu.
Indigestion is not dangerous, say the faculty.—
Perhaps not in it: tlf, while it remains mere indi
gestion : but loci; at the consequences to which it
may lead, and often does lead when it becomes a
chronic disease. A spark of fire is a small thing,
A pressure of the foot will put it out; a breath
will extinguisli it. Yet it may fire a powder mill
or kindle a flame that wi 1 consume a city. In
like manner indigestion may produce gastritis,
cancer of the stomach, cong Boa of the bowels,
apoplexy, liver disease, and many o*hcr dangerous
maladies. Is it not wise. then, to check it in the
germ ? Nothing is more clearly’ aud indisputably
atablished than that Hostetter's Stomach Bitters
will eradicate dyspepsia iu al! its stages The
true policy, however, is to extinguish it in the
first stages with tnis v. holes me, powerful, and in
fallible tonic and alterative. It is easier to
quench a spark than a flame, and it is easier to
cure dyspepsia when it is lirst developed, than
when it has made headway by negiect, and be
come complicate.! with other ailments. There is
not the shadow of a doubt that the bitters are as
directly antagonistic to dyspepsia as water is to
tire. There are thousands of cases on record
proving this fact. The remedy is safe aod agree
able. All the liquors of commerce prescribed as
stimulants leave a sting beeind But the sting is
taken out of the spirituous basis of this great rem
edy by vegetable medication, and, moreover, the
stimulant thus medicated is of exceptional purity.
Of all tonics taken as safe-guards or remedies for
fever and ague, billions remittents, and other ep
idemics, it is the only one that can uniformly be
depended on. 32 1m-

EOINONED TO DEATH.
A healthy liver s-cretes each day about two and
a half pounds of bile, which contains a great
amount of waste material taken from the blood.—
When the liver becomes torpid or congested, it
fails to eliminate this vast amount of noxious sub
stance, which, therefore remains to poison the
blood and be conveyed to every part of the sys
t«m What must he the condition oi'the blood when
it is receiving and retaining each day two aud a
half pounds of poison ? Nature tries to work off
this prison through other channels and organs—
the kidneys, lungs, skin, etc. ; but these organs
become overtaxed in performing this labor, in ad
dition to their natural functions, and cannot long
withstand the pressure, but become variously dis
eased.
The brain, which is the great electrical centre
of all vitality, is unduly stimulated by the uu>
healthy blood which passes to it from the heart,
and it fails to perforin its office healthfully. Hence
the symptoms of bi'e poisoning, which are dull
ness, headache.incapacity to keep the mind on any
subject, impairment of memory, dizzy, sleepy, or
nervous feelings, gloomy forebodings and irrita
bility of temper. The blood itself being diseased as
it forms the sweat upon the suriace of the
skin, it is so irritating and poisonous that it
produces discolored brown spots, pimples, blotch
es and other eruptions, sores, boils, carbuncles and
scrofulous tumors. The stomach, bowels and oth
er organs spoken of, cannot escape becoming af-
haud. He rushed upon Lynch and stabbed him
in the left breast. The knife entered about two
inches below the dipple. The wotiud is fatal.—
Lynch fell bleeding to the sidewalk, and Callahan
ran off.—N. Ik Sun.
Conversion of English Jews.—
The income ®f the British Society for
the Propagation of the Gospel among
the Jews, is reported to be about .£8,-
000 a year. They have twenty-five
missionaries, and the results of these
missions to the Jews it is stated have
been that there are now between 20,-
000 and 30,000 iu the Protestant
Christian faith in England and on
the continent. About four hundred of
these are ministers and missionaries of
various denominations, one hundred
being missionaries to their own breth
ren.
Social Equality In Mississippi.—The
civil rights bill, giving equal rights to all
persons in all public conveyances, hotels,
theatres, See., in Mississippi, become a law
on the Oth. A negro aud his wife, to
test the law, took a seat tha' night in the
theatre, but were ejected.
sy, dyspepsia, diarrhoea, female weakness and ma
uy other forms of chronic disease, are among the
necessary results. As a remedy for al! these vari
ous manifestations of disease, Dr. Pierce’s Golden
Medical Discovery is positively unequaled. By
it the liver and stomach are changed to an active
healthy state, the appetite regulated and restored,
the blood and secretions thoroughly purified and
enriched, and the whole system renovated aud
built up anew. Sold by all first class druggists.
In every Quarter of the Globe where it is
known, and there are f w indeed where it is not,
the Mexican Mustang Liniment takes prece
dence of all similar preparations. Its transeen-
daut merits have obtained for it a popularity sel
dom reached by any proprietary medicine. Iu its
infancy the flat of its success was pronounced in
the wide-spread endorsement which it received
from physicians, veterinary surgeons, horsemen
and the public generally. No one now thinks of
questioning its claim to be considered the Stand
ard Liniment of America.
Hall’s Vegetable Sicilian Hair Renewer
now stands among the first, and at the head of all
articles for a similar purpose. The testimony of
oar physicians is conclusive as to its value ; and
we are personally acquainted with scores of cases
where it las been used with the best of results.—
It will restore gray hair to its original color, and
leaves it glossy, and in a healthy condition
while, for heads troubled with dandruff, or any
disease of the scalp, it acts like a charm in cleans
