J-'rem’h Political Allairsl
French advtte* yesterday indicate that
the great governmental crisis would take
ui mdelinite postponement by the almost
common consent of all parties to prolong
the MttcMaliuu administration. The
National Assembly meets to-morrow, and
m- :wi determined equally to maintain its
o»u eiistenoe and the Presidency of
Marsuai MacJdahon and the preeent non
descnpi government. This is no doubt
tin* sdutMio of affairs most favorable to
tiie peace and prosperity of France.
Elections To-day
Will be held in New York, Maryland,
Nlas-achusetts, Minnesota, New Jersey,
Virginia on a Wisconsin. In Massachu
setts Minnesota, Virginia and Wisconsin
Governors and other State officers, and
also members of the Legislature are to
1m elected. In New York, State officers
—except Governor—and members
the Legislature, and in Maryland ditto.
New Jersey will only elect members of
the Legislature.
AlcMtr*. Walker & Dobbs at
the Fair.
Yesterday after the crowd hod well
nigh descried Floral Hall, we had an ex
cellent opportunity to scrutinize carefully
the exte nsive contributions of this enter
prising nouse. Tney are simply gorgeous
and magnificent in every particular. In
the centre of the arena occupied by them
stands a dining table elegantly furnished
for a banquet, with splendid cut-glass
goblets, china service and massive silver
plate. All around on the walls, and
in l>eautiful silver-mounted show
cases, magnificent table cutlery, silver
spoons, cups, forks, pitchers, etc., are dis
played, besides bronze statuary and a
great Variety of exquisite fancy goods.
i'Ue contributions of this house were uni
versally admired and their stock of goods
on sale is one of the best in the South.
Montuomkht Cot row Kncxirrs.—Tho
cotton receipts of Montgomery up to
November 1st were 10,280 bales. Up to
tin* corresponding date of last year they

wholly to the yellow fever panic. Ro

Notes Concerning tlie Fair.
It would require weeks of patient and
critical examination W go over and de
scribe ill proper terms, the vast number
Of beautiful objects which have hnen on
exhibition, covering to a great ext nt Vie
vegetable and mineral kingdom,'and the
whole domain of the fine arts, manufac
tures and skilled industry. Several vol
umes might be filled with descriptions of
the magnificent machinery, farming
utensils, paintings, elaborate needle work
and embroidery, and the multitudinous
specimen* of the handiwork of male and
female which embrace almost every de
partment and article that can even be
imagined. But the limits of a newspa
per, and the hurried inquisitions of edi
tors and reporters are utterly inadequate
to the task. We would state, however,
that all the departments * were full, and
most admirably represented.
Thus, in agriculture were to be seen
many neat packages of cotton and sweet
smelling bay, and clover—brobdinagian
potatoes—vegetables never surpassed in
any climate or market, Indian corn grow
ing upon sapling, not stalks;rice, wheat,
oats, bariey and all the cereals plump
and perfect. Sugarcane maturing twenty
joints and abounding in saccharine mat
ter, sorghum, broom oorn, several of the
new grasses, apples, pomegranates, water
melons, tropical fruits of hot-house pro
duction, syrups, and an infinite variety of
canned fruits, pickles, jellies, etc. Flour
equal to any in the world and bread
therefrom which made the soul of the
dyspeptic to rejoice—flowers rare and
beautiful, exhaling their fragrance
around; in short almost everything at
this season appertaining to field, garden,
orchard or dairy, and uaa.ty abnormal
specimen vegetable* k-iidus, were dis
played in affluent abundance on the
tables of the Exposition.
In the fine arts, too. were paintings in
oil and water colors some of exquisite
beauty and merit, chromos without num
her, pencil sketches, daguenotypes, ferro
types and other pictures, making more
than one splendid gallery.
In domestic industry, a grand array of
the feat* of good house-wifery, in the
shape of quilts, comforts, table covers,
sacques, shirts and other garments, be
sides the most brilliant designs in worsted
and needle work. In shop goods, the
rarest and most tempting display of
crockery, glass, and fancy articles. Jew
elry and plate gorgeous to behold; sad
dles and harness, fit for an Emperor;
groceries done up in such shapes and va
riety, os to cause the epicure’s mouth to
water; dry goods deftly arranged, and so
rich and variegated as to resemble the
fancy creations of Alladdin’s wonderful
lamp; grand pianos and musical instru
ct* of the best make, which ever and
anon gave forth their dulcet notes to the
touch of some passing adept, articles of
vertu and fancy which must have cost
years of patient and persistent applica
tion; inventions and patents, new and
astonishing in their designs and uses.
These, and hundreds of others not enum
erated, gave the aspect and brilliant ap
pearance of a grand bararre to Premium
and Floral halls. Indeed, some views in
•ach of these spacious apartments were
daxslingly rich and beautiful, and could
not be surpassed bv any stretch of tho
inagination.
Then again, we must not forgot the
lieautiful and useful objects in Machinery
Hail, and the splendid and varied dis
plays of scales of every size, cotton plan
ters, guano distributors, plows of every
pattern, threshing and mowing machines,
toes, axes, stoves and all the paraphernalia
of the plantation and kitchen. Besides
these, the live stock formed a most im-
j»ortant and extensive part of the exhi
bition. Blooded horses and colts, racers,
jacks, mules, cattle of the choicest breeds,
heep, goats, bogs and an endless variety
Tu New York Time* says: “It is one
•of the curiosities of the situation that
while laborers are being discharged by
the thousand throughout the country,
t!ie puddler* in the great iron mills on
the Troy fiats, who have received an av
erage of $5 per day, are on a strike to se
cure fifteen cents more refused by the
employers.” It is a singular time to be
striking for higher wages.
Ex-Mayor Hall, of New York, in a
humorous lecture on “ Love, Marriage
and Divorce,” speaking of sudden mar-
riuges, said he had known of a breakfast
acquaintance that grew into a lufich
declaration and ended in a marriage at
dinucr, finished by a divorce in two or
three weeks with the first recrimination
over the ten minutes of refreshment at
somo station.
A beautiful and wealthy anonyms of
Kensington, England, has made a sensa
tion by marrying a youthful lover of the
first circles, paying six thousand pounds
to uiako good his bonk defalcation, giving
him her whole fortuue, and finally com
mitting suicide because he deserted her.
8!ie protested that she married to secure
his reformation and her own. Poor Mag

Tux ruzxirx horse, as the best and
xnoit stylish roadster of Georgia raising,
exhibited at tho Fair, was bought by J.
H. Leitin. Esq., of Philadelphia, and
will be taken to that city to illustrate
-•Georgia.” which name he boars. He
was raised by Mr. Hightower, of Griffin,
and is a sorrel of fine sine and carriage.
Aw Indiawa editor declined to publish
the proceedings in a divorce case for two
reason* : First, because some of his
friends were mixed up with it. and he did
not wish to publish the fact; and second,
because some of his enemies were inter
ested and threatened to rawhide him if
their names appeared in his columns.
Sscond Aptixt Posttohid. At last
accounts a large crowd of Millerites were
^nv^mped on Terry’s Island, in the Con
necticut river above Hartford, expecting
to go up last Frnlay, October 31st.. which
day they had assigned for the final con
summation. The trip, however, seems
to have b«en deferred.
Mo.vtooxert interments for October
were 128, which included twenty non-res
ident*. This fact should correct exag
gerated ideas of the amount of sickness
there.
The Exchange Hotel opened again on
the 1st instant and absentees were re
turning. _
Col. B. G. Lockett.—We learn from
his nephew that CoL Lockett, though
quite sick of gastric fever, was recovering
on Saturday—wn* sitting up yostexday

But as stated in the outlet, the object
of this article is simply to acquaint our
•lixtant readers with the character of the
Exposition which lias closed. The like
lias never been seen before in Georgia,
both in extent and completeness.
Labor Troubles.
The labor question is taking a very
iharp issue in many parts of the country
under pressure of the money stringency.
Railways and extensive manufactories
■ire reducing wages and curtailing hours
«>f labor under the practical idea of tiding
their force through the winter with as
little pressure upon themselves as possi
ble ; but in many places the workmen re
fuse to aooept these abatements, and pre
fer the desperate risk of no employment
atoll.
It is a great mistake. At such a crisis,
the rule that “half a loaf is better than
no bread,” must be accepted by all classes.
Employes and employers alike must take
what they can get and make the best of
it. The procrustean rules of Labor Unions
must go down before a stern necessity
which overides all such arbitrary regula
tions.
In Knoxville last Saturday night, the
employes on the railroads there all struck
in resistance to a reduction of hours and
pay, and the business of the reads was
suspended a few hours. The passenger
trains were stopped, and passengers took
up quarters for the night in the train.
Next day, however, new officers and train
hands were substituted, and the old em
ployes were left without resources.
Strikes have now few terrors for em
ployers, because many of them prefer to
stop business, which at the very best will
be profitless, and the most are compelled
largely to reduce their force from the
mere impossibility of paying it. The
threatened strikes are wretched absurd
ity* growing oat of “ Society* roles and
regulations wholly unsuited to such
times as these, and absolutely imprac
ticable. When trade is prostrate, me
chanical labor is as much a drug on the
market as any commodity for which
there is no demand, and combinations
oumot alter the fact, ot JJrerent the in
evitable consequence*.
Let workmen in their own inters^* lay
this truth to heart, and not aggravate
their own misfortune* or sufferings by
an idle fight with the laws
of trade, it is a sad reflection that pnJl*
ably half a million skill*! workmen will
be "thrown out of employment the ap
proaching winter. These will represent
u most valuable population of at least
two and a half million souls, a large por
tion of whom must perhaps depend wholly
or in part on charity for subsistence
through tae winter.
THE GEORGIA PRESS.
Dr. P- D. Moore, one of the oldest
citizens and most prominent physicians
of Athens, died last Friday of pneumonia.
Tnr correspondent of the TbanuriDe
Times, who ns at the Fair, write, that
“the worst feature we Me about the Fair
are the gambling traps that oan front you
at every step; they should never be al
lowed within a Fair ground.” A good
many other* were of the same opinion,
and expressed it very freely, too. It was
not a creditable feature of the occasion,
by any means.
Ton Georgia railroad is doing a heavy
freight business, notwithstanding the
hard times. The Chronicle says 139 car
loads of freight reached Augusta on Fri
day.
The same paper says seventeen shares
of the Langley factory stock sold on Sat
urday at $110 per share, cash.
The Brunswick Appeal says the rice
planters on the Altamaha and the inland
swamps, are very much encouraged at
the unusual large crops made; the
weather for three weeks hack, having
been favorable for harvesting, the rice is
now all housed.
The Caronide and Sentinel of Sunday
announces the death, on Saturday night,
of Mr. Guxtavu* A. Parker, one of the
best known citizens of Augusta. He
well kno wn as one of the beat and most
meoaasful auctioneers in the State, mud
was a soldier in the Mexican war.
The Augusta steam laundiy was to
have commenced operations yesterday,
and there was quite a jubilation among
housekeepers.
What awe We Cowiho To?—Under
this head the Athena Northeast Georgian
has the fo.lowing:
This week we were somewhat startled
by one of our most substantial farmers
stepping into a store and purchasing fire
pounds of Goshen butter, at forty cents
per pound, to cany home. “ How is it,”
we asked, “ that you are thus purchas
ing imported butter at such an «*xorbi-
tant price when you can inike it at home
without cost ?” “ Weil/’ said our friend,
“ I reckon I have thirty of a-j good coun
try cows os Clark county can produce,
but somehow we got sorter backward
with the cotton and did not ?iato time to
attend to them properly, and so they all
dried up.” We were further surprised
wlftjn the merchant informed us tliat the
greater port of his butter custom now
came from the country. Friends, what
should this lesson teach us—twelve and
one-half centi per pound for cotton, and
forty cents per pound for butter ? Again
“ What is our country coming
to?”
We don’t know where the country is
coming to, but it looks very much like it
was going to the dogs when such a state
of things is reported from your section.
The Georgian pronounces Lent’s circus
and menagerie a humbug, and the Wash
ington Gazette says it is a swindle and
should be so denounced by the press of
the country. The Gazette says a num
lier of tickets were sold for the night's
performance in that town which didn’t
come off, and the treasurer entirely for
got to return the money.
As a specimen of jjcorrect reporting, we
liave seen nothing more admirable than
the following which is found in a Macon
letter to the Atlanta Constitution:
The Grand M •»»’ 5 body has elected
for the next year:
Mr. Irwin Mort, Worthy Grand Master.
Mr. Mobley, of Harris county, Deputy.
Mr. J. E. Biackshin, of Macon county,
Grand Secretary.
Mr. Joseph K. Well, of Macon county.
Grand Treasurer.
Mr. Charles H. Freeman, of Macon
county, Tyler.
And Still the Wore Goes On.—The
Covington Enterprise reports the burn
ing on the same day last week, of the gin
houses of Dr. W. A. Ferry and Mr. Jos.
Feny, both of Newton county—the
former losing gin house, screw, and eleven
bales of ootton. and the latter nine bales.
Eight gin bouses have been burned in the
rounty this season the Milledgeville Every
Saturday, reports the burning of Dr.
Irvin’s gin house in Baldwin county, with
seveni and Mr. James Reynold’s gin
liouae, in Macon county, with eight boles
of cotton.
The Every Saturday also reports tho
accidental killing by Mr. J. C. Huff, of
that county, of a negro man with whom
he was out hunting on Friday.
The Early County News man has this
. say of long sermons :
We do not like long sermons; never
saw any one who did; but many people
are afraid to say so. Sermons should be
good things, but it is a rare case for a
long sermon to be good throughout.
They are scarcely more entertaining than
long editorials in country newspapers.
The advantage, if any there be, is on the
side of the editorials, for we can read
them, as we may elect; but, if caught
by a long sermon, between the pulpit and
the door, we have no remedy but to hear
rich a* Croesus.
So sex men carry their regard for the
law to excessive lengths; for example, a
man in Xewburyport, Mass., who was
lately visited by his aged father. The
old gentleman took with him a small dog,
which hod been his pet and companion.
The son objected to this dog because it
cost him nearly a cent a day to feed him
during his father’s visit. Thereupon the
son went to the authorities and made
complaint against his father that ho had
an unlicensed dog. The old man was ar
rested and fined $20{ »*nd having no
Muuvy.ii*»»« fakalUflJaiL*iiultiie.rv-.. *
mained at the last accounts*
it.
One of the editors of the Chronicle and
Sentinel, who was here last week, tele
graphed this item to his paper on Friday:
The Smith-Jolmson correspondence is
still progresfaing. Gov. Smith has writ
ten nis last letter. An effort is being
made to arrange the matter.
The Constitutionalist,of Sunday,says:
The Macon Fair.—From Mr. Jona
than M. Miller, our correspondent W. M.
S. t and other competent judges, we learn
that the Macon Fair was decidedly the
grandest exhibition of the kind ever
seen in the South, and a monument of
credit to Mayor Huff and the enterpris
ing citizens’ of our sister municipality.
A*e congratulate the people of Macon
upon their prowess and progress. T,hey
deserve to have the State Fair as a. per
petual privilege. To them the laurels
are justly due.—
-They woo them well and xomj they wear them
km*:”
We don’t know so well about the “per
petual privilege” part of the above com
pliment. That is a matter for future
and very serious consideration. Let us
see last week's figures before deciding.
The Chronicle and SentineFof Satur
day, says CapL J. J. Gregg, of that
city, who went to Europe some weeks
mnee to interest English capitalists in
some new manufacturing enterprises
that have been projected for Augusta,
has returned home without having ac
complished his mission. The capitalists
didn’t*like the look* of things here just
now, and preferred to keep their invest
ment* at home. There were parties,
however, who intimated that they would
be willing to invest in manufacturing
enterprises in this section to the amount
of three hundred thousand dollars or more.
The Constitutionalist reports money
ore abundant in Augusta last week from
the large sale* of ootton and the payment
of dividends bf the National Bank of
Augusta* the Augusta factory and the
Gainesville factory. Daring the week
soma sales pt Augusta bonds were made
at IS2 and $85.
The Athens Georgian says that be
tween five and six hundred boles of oot
ton were sold last Wednesday in that
Also, that Mr. Robert Boone, of
county, killed a eleven months’ old
hog last week that weighed 271 pounds,
net, and yielded sixty-two and one-half
pounds of lard.
The Augusta papers publish the mar
riage in that city, on Thursday last, of
Captain Dunlap Srort, of Rome, and Miss
y-irv o. Montgomery, of Augusta.
Dr- Henry Shxrker, of Wilkes county,
was thrown from his bone Thursday
morning, and very seriously injured.
Another Grange Formed at Ac-
ottwx. We find the following preamble
Whereas, We, the Loreri of Augusta,
are becoming startled by the amount of
our labor that is lost; and, whereas, we
are arousing to the fact that we do not
receive adequate returns to our advance*
and, whereas, we know it is on account of
“middle women;” and, whereas,
know that there will-continue to be just
this state of things so long as we take
our hearts to “middlewomen;” there
fore,
Resolved. That we band ourselves to
gether under the name of the “Rejected
Lovers’ ’Grange of Augusta.”
Resolved, That we hare nothing more
to do with “ middle women.” but deal di
red with Happiness.
Resolved. That the Chair appoint a
Committee on Bottles, a Committee on
Hot Water, a Committee on Sugar, a
Committee on Tobacco, and a Committee
on Cards. Adopted.
DaxiAl Marshall, aged seventeen,
and living in Clarke county, attempted
to crack a chestnut burr with the breech
of a loaded gun one day last week, when
was discharged, and Marshall received
wound which killed him in seven hours.
A difficulty occurred last Thursday be
tween two men named, respectively, Jos.
Foralsy and D. A. Farmer, both residents
of Chattooga county, which resulted in
Former’s shooting and killing Pursley
after the latter had fired twice at him.
Hard Times and no Money in
Georgia.
All the towns are as hard up as Colum
bus. None of the big wholesale houses
in Macon are doing anything. A proprie
tor of ono of the largest wholesale estab
lishments in the State told a friend of
ours it was hardly worth while to open
his doors, os the sale* did not pay the
salaries of his clerks. Tho same condi
tion exists in Griffin. Merchant* are
tiking cotton for the payment of debts.
In Atlanta the situation is as bad as any
where else, if not worse. A general
crash is feared. Everywhere you meet
blue and lengthened faces. In ’Macon,
Macon and Brunswick railroad money is
used. Going to Atlanta you find Forsyth
money; then Barnsville money; then
Griffin money; and further up local cer
tificates. Greenbacks are never shown
you, except as a curiosity. Along the
tailroad* you see the fields white with
cotton, and not a leaf upon the stalks.
In some fields not a hand is picking.
Should a heavy, beating rain come, large
Q uantities of cotton would be lost.—
Columbut (Go.) Sun.
We have seen the above once or twice
before floating around in our exchanges.
The writer has certainly drawn on his
imagination as to Macon. True, the
large wholesale houses of Macon have
not done as large a business this season
as usual on account of the universal
financial derangement, but they all,
without exception, have done even better
than they had any right to expect. We
venture the assertion that the wholesale
houses of Miuxw have done as much if
not more bi siness, on a perfectly safe
basis this season, than those of any other
city of Georgia, and we know that their
landing and credit are as solid as those
of any at the South. If the credit of any
merchants in the South stands higher
than that of the merchants of Macon, we
should like to know where they live.
The Sun also exaggerates the scarcity of
greenbacks as a part of the circulating
medium in this section, and by
mplication seks to convey tho
idea that Macon and Brunswick
change bills are our only currency.
Greenbacks have been scarce here, as
everywhere, for several weeks, but never
so scarce a* to be shown as a curiosity.
There are other exaggerations in this ex
tract from the Sun, but we do not care to
notice them. We regard the whole
statement, however, as ill-considered and
unwise, and calculated to do much harm
to Georgia credit: as proof of which
need only say that the extract in question
was clipped from a St Louis paper by a
member of one of the largest provision
houses of that city, and forwarded to one
of their agents now here with the signif
icant question: How is this ?

HAY DISPATCHES*
Panic in der Lager.
New Yore, November 3.—Owing to
the inferior quality of the lager beer
manufactured in the Breweries of New
York and vicinity, retail dealers have
been shipping large quantities from
Western cities, for use here and the brew
ers feeling the heavy decrease in their
trade, on Saturday assembled in conven
tion to see what steps could be taken to
retain their customers. They were as
sured they could do so if they would
manufacture a better article, which they
agreed to do; but will advance the price
from nine to ten dollars, they maintain
ing that a good article can not be
manufactured for less. The advanced
price takes effect this week.
Protest Against Reduction of Wages.

NIGHT DISPATCHES.
Tlie Centennial Stock.
Shares in this stock are offered to Amer
ican citizens for $10 each, payable $:
ubscription and $2 quarterly thereafter.
This places it within the reach of every
man, woman and child who desires to pre
serve such a record of the giandeur of our
country. Although no claim is made
that this stock will prove an investment,
yet it is honestly believed that it will re
turn a fair interest on the investment.
The certificate itself will be well worth
the amount named aa the cost of a share,
It will be engraved on steel, and will be
most appropriate ornament to have in
every house of our land. Subscriptions
will be received in this city at any of the
banks or at this office.

is the deposit of myriads of sea birds, ac
cumulating through long ages, is render
ed untenable by the recent investigation*
of Dr. HabeL After treating the guano
with an add, microscopical and chemical
fTfl!T ; 7?* tinn revealed that the insoluble
residue was composed of fossil sponges
and other marine animals and plants pre
cisely similar in constitution to such as
still exist in those seas. The fact that
the anchors of ships in the neighborhood
of the guano islands often bring np guano
from the bottom of the ocean, is quite in
opposition pi the prevalent belief. Dr.
Habel therefore considers that the de
posits of guano must be the result of the
accumulation of fossil plant? and mimalg
whose organic matter ha* been trans
formed into nitrogenous substance, the
mineral portion remaining intact.

The United States Supreme Court.
Washington, November 3.—The U. S.
Supreme Court, to-day, decided in the
case of the State of South Carolina ex rel
Wagner against Stoell, County Treas urer,
from tho Supreme Court of the State in
volving tho question of the validity of
the issues of the Bank of the State dur
ing tho war. The charter of the Bank,
framed in 1812, provided that its issues
should bo receivable for taxes, but the
County Treasurer now refused to receive
them on the ground that they were issued
in aid of tho rebellion, and were there
fore no tender. The Court below sus
tained the objection, and the judgment
was for the Treasurer. On a fanner
argument of the case, in this Court,
that judgment was affirmed, but upon a
re-argument had at thi* term, there
is a change of opinion, and the
judgment is now reversed. The same
Juge writing the opinion threw ont* hold
ing that as the faith o£ tho State was
pleged for these bills, the holder- were
entitled to rely upon that verdict, and to
it* protection. The credit of tho State
could not be withdrawn, an open* and
clear declaration to that effect and such
a declaration was not.made until 1868 by
the repeal of the charter, which wis too
late, under the bills, to tender in the
present case. One other case was de
cided by the decision in this-v-Justice
Hunt delivered the opinion. Justice
Bradley dissented.
Indian News.
The General of the Army has received
a dispatch from Gen. Sheridan, announc
ing the arrival at Fort Concno, Texas, in
good condition, and the Kickapoo and
Pottowattomie Indians en route from
Mexico to the IniLan Territory. The
Modoc* are encamped on Brady’s Island,
near Fort McP.ierson.
A Talk About Specie.
Dr. Linderman, director of mints,
shows Ihe product of gold to be $ GO,000,-
000, silver $12,250,000. He thinks the
depreciation of silver and appreciation of
United States securities will enable tho
government to buy silver with gold and
pay out silver at it* nominal value. The
operation would net the Treasury about
ten per cent. Tho report favors the re
sumption of the New Orleans mint. . It
say* the amount believed to be necessary
to place the New Orleans mint in a con
dition for coinage operations and for its
support during the fiscal year was in
cluded in the estimates of appropriations
for the mints and assay offices. Should
the necessary appropriations be obtained
for the purpose the establishment can
probably be put in operation in about
three months’ time and afterwards use
fully employed in the manufacture of
tamped bar and coinage of silver.
