Five Children at One Biirrn.—Tho
most remsrkalilft birth over known
the history of occouchmenta occurred
or near Saleeville, Ohio, on Monday night,
23d instant, Mrs. McCormick gave birth
to Cre healthy children, four boys and
one girl. The medical works havo bnt
law instance? of such wonderful births,
and when they do occur the children
havo scarcely been known to live,
this case the mother and children, in the
common language on such occasions, arc
/doing well.”
Two births of four children have occur-
ed within the last fifteen years near this
region, but this . outdoes all recorded
occurrences perhaps in the United States.
A Nice Esi.isn Just Abrivid. — We
acknowledge the receipt of a fresh salt
relish (tho truth), from Daly Brothers, in
the abapo of a package of new codfish,
just from the “ Banks,” with all their

boneless. In fact, they are just ready
for tho accompanying Irish potatoes,
bread crumbs, butter, pepper, milk (out

Codfish balls, well made, never hurt or

Pw Nono College.—Wo invite special
attention to tho announcement, mado in
another column, of tho Fall opening of
Pio Nono College, by tho Bight Beverend
W. II. Gross, D. D„ Bishop of Savannah,
who is also the President of the Institu
tion.
His card gives a graphic and tempting
description of the advantages of this
Catholic Seminary, whom a completo
education can bo had at naoderato cost,
and tho discipline is at once mild and ex,
omplsry. Albeit, under the auspices of
tho Botnnn Catholio Churob, wo are as
sated that no attempt at proselytism is
ever made upon the Protestant students.
The course of study is very thorough,
nnil those of our acquaintance who havo
sent their sons and wards to Pio Nono
express themselves woll pleased with
their progress.
A Mou in Florida.—A negro mob in
Alachua, Florida, last Sunday undertook
tho roscuo of a prisoner of their own

A Universal Menace.
John Chins man, according to tho
Baltimore Sun, is litto short of a univer
sal menace to all outside trade and indus
try. We find it stated, says that paper,
by a writer familiar with tbo subject
that year by year European and Ameri,
can merchants doing business m China
aud Japan and tho countries adjacent
thereto find themselves obliged to wind
up their affairs, some by downright fail
ure, others by tho satisfactory process of
liquidation. Seme, we aro told, go away
with the indignant declaration that there
has boon overtrading in the East. Others
frankly admit that tho Chtneso traders
are too much for them. Foreign mer
chants cannot live on tho wonderfully
small profits that content tho Chinese,
and after making a thorough trial of
business many of them abandon it and
confess themselves worsted.
Bayers are nowhere sentimetsl. Their
chief concern is to bny where they can
get cheapest the commodities they want.
Neither nationality nor personal friend,
ship or sympathy has anything to do
with trade. “You may talk yourself
hoarse," says the writer, “about the
necessity of supporting European trad
hut the chances are that you will buy of
a Chinese, because ho will sell cheaper
than •'European.” In all the*open por.s
of Jap.in;the Chinese ore thickly establiah-
eJ. Al i in Singapore, Malacca, Penang,
Unrmah and Cochin China.
They are the traders of the Ksst. Only
in Java do the Dutch keep them down by
government aid and monopoly. But
won there thoy have come, and come to
»iay. From Sai-gon, Burmah, they ship
more tl.an nine-truths of tlierico crop.
Nearly all the flour shipped from San
Francisco to China is on Chinese account.

The War of the Giants.
The London telegrams of yesterday
knock us off the lop ronnd of the Udder
of expectation. Marquis Usrlington’s r<
olntion was to be the trumpet signal of the
opposition to rally all the Literal class
to do battle against the Beaconsfitld pol
icy, and inaugurate a week's straggle
which in vigor, ability aDd eloquence
should eclipse anything London bad seen
for a generation. Instead of that a few
prosy speeches were delivered to empty
beeches and tho Honse adjourned at an
early hour.
Possibly this light preliminary skir
mish may bring on a sturdy fight before
the debate is over; bnt the telegram com
plains of indifference about the contest
This means that tho opposition is too fee
bio to inspire fesr or (perhaps) respect.
It is, no donbt, insufficient to create any
sense of danger, and therefore to stimn
Isle the ministerial party to their best ef
forts in the way of defense. It looks
if the English liberal party is bonnd for
a long retirement.
That there is no real indifference in re
spect to the attitude and achievements
of the ministry at Berlin and Const&nti
nop! j was evident from the splendid pop
ular ovation to tho returning diplomats.
England and the ontsido world believ
that they havo aohievod great resnlts, and
for a long time secured new and surpri
sing prestige to British political and
commercial power, while Busaia has been
placed in check for possibly a generation.
The indifference, then, proceeds from the
inconsiderable value of tho opposition
tho ministerial policy.
A manual of Goorgla.
This is tho titlo of qnito a voluminous

The cold wave, which the Western
philosophers and meteorologists aro con-
tinnnlly talking abemt, has not yet struck
ns. Wo are waiting for it, and want to
plcngo into it head foromost on tbo first
oppottnnity. Yesterday was n little
milder. It was generally cloudy, with a
few light showers, and n midday temper
ature of 92. Bat that was not the ware.
Tboy bad a sudden wave in Chicago
last week. The wild winds piled tho wa
ters of tho lake against the city sewers,
while simultaneously four inches of ram
fell, which, finding no other ontlet, filled
up their cellars aud destroyed, as the pa
pers say, goods to an almcst incalculable
value. But that was not the cold wave,
though donbtless cooling.
Some of onr friends talk of seeking
the cold wave somewhere up in tho
Northeast, beyond sunrise—say about
the Bay of Fandy, where the tides rise
sixty feet, and tidal waves sweep in ten
feet at a dash. They think a little Burf-
bathing on that coast would give them
cold waves in abundance, and we think
so, too. A single wave of that character
would drown tho memory of all the torrid
waves they ever encountered m Georgia.
Yonng manhood in Georgia is now
diligently seeking waves at the Springs;
bnt it is not a cold wave they are after.
It is the wave of the handkerchief—the
flatter of graceful drapery without any
sign of eeljness. They are not only in
different to cold waves, bat would waive
them altogether.

Federal Antagonisms.
A few weeks since, in un editorial let
ter from Atlanta, the writer published
tome comparisons between the present
administration of the office of United
States Marshal snd that of the previous
incumbent.
His statements were predicated npon
what seemed to .him to be nnimpeacbable
authority, and in corToboratio n thereof
we find in another commonicstion from a
reliable correspondent, dated Jnly 28th,
and published in the Teligeaph on yes
lerday, the statement that the record
shows that “Mai. Smythe had made, in
six months, one hnndred and ninety-
tbree arrests, and not two hundred and
fifty as claimed.” The same correspond
ent goes on to zay that “since the 7th of
Jtnnary to the 30ih of Jane, fonr hue
dred and seventy-eight arrests have been
made nnder Marshal Fitzsimmons' ad
ministration witbont aid or aBsietance
from the military.” He also states that
“Haj. Smjtho'a chief deputy was with
Marshal Fitzsimmons three months."

ed. But, as all that he says is of a per
sonal nature and wonld simply lead to
an endless warfare of words between the
present marshal and the previous and
existing Federal office holders in tho
State, nono of whom wish to “ventilate 1
when tho privilege must bo paid for, wo
withheld tho bulk of tho communication.
In justice to Mr. Clark, however, who
we have ever found to be a courteana
gentleman, we append the following t
though of tho opinion that bo is mistaken
in tho assertion that wo ascribed to Mar
shal Fitzsimmons the credit of collecting
the revenne spoken of, which is not in
his line of duty:
Yon go on to givo the marshal credit
for the collection of $1-14,000, the reve
nue tax upon the spirituous product of
tho northern district of Georgia, and for
tho breaking up of 127 illicit distilleries,
etc., (statistics which must have been ob
tained either from the records of my
office or from those in tho department at
Washington) and conclude by calling
the whole “a good and satisfactory snow
ing of tho work of Marshal Fitzsimmons
and his deputies.”
In this connection it will be sufficient
to state, for jour information and that of
the public, thatneither tho Marshal nor
bis depnties have anything whatever to
do with tho collection of internal rovenuo
taxes or with making seizures for viola
tions of rovenuo laws, as tboso duties de
volve exclusively upon collectors of in
ternal revenne and their lawful subordi
nates.
I will also state foryonr farther infor
mation, that oat of two hundred and thir
ty-one seizures made daring the fisoal
year that ended Jane 30, 1878, consisting
of nineteen oxen, nine mules, five horses
and eighteen wagons engaged in the
transportation of “orooked” whisky, one
thonBand six hnndred and eighty-eight
gallons of spirits, one hundred and
sixty-nine- illicit distilleries, fonrteen
hnndred and sixty-one gallons of sing
lings and low wines, threo hnndred and
sixty-nine bushels of meal and malt and
abont 200,000 gallons of maBh and beer,
there were only thirteen of them in which
Marshal Fitzsimmons’ depnties participa
ted. and then they were soting nnder
special commissions from the collector,
which is (he only way in which deputy
msrehcls can seize property.
In conclusion, we wonld say that it
is not the desire or intention of the Tel
egraph and Messenger to do an injus
tice to any one whether conneoted or not
with the Democratia party. Bnt as news
carriers who lire by their vocation, wo
mnst insist that all who seek a hearing in
onr colnmns npon matters of personal in
terest should pay for the privilege.
The Question.—Tho word “ques
tion” is more abused and misapplied
than any other in the language. Every
thing is spoken of as “a question,’’
though it may bo a proposition as self-
evident as two and two make fonr. Then,
what is worse, wo aro continually talking
about tho base and abandoned bb “ ques
tionable characters," when there is no
other question about them than the exact
depth of their depravity. Moreover the
lightest flirtation is styled “ popping tho
question,” when it is merely evading it.
Bat perhaps the worst misapplication of
tho word was when the venerable eccle
siastics, scrites and lawyers put it in tho
form of tho iron boot, tho scalding oil,
tho rack and the pincers, or tho wheel.
It was an agonizing “ question ” then,
and still not at all a question, in any trne
sense of the word.
Every one who has used it pronounces

Grant on n Tlilrtl Term.
Tho third term begins to bo an inter
esting snbjcot. Gen. Grant touched
npon it freely in a recant talk with John
Russell Yonng of tho New York Herald.
Gen. Grant said:
“I was novor mora delighted at any
thing than tho closo of the war. I never
liked service in tho army—not as a yonng
officer. I did not want to go to West
Point. My appointment was an acci
dent, and my father had to nso his au
thority to make mo go. I novor went
into a battle willingly or with enthusi
asm. I was always glad when a battle
was over. I never want to command
another army. I take no interest in ar
mies. When tho Dake of Cambridge
asked mo to review his troops at Aider-
shot I told his royal highness that tho ono
thing I never wanted to see again was
military parade. When I resignoa from
tbo army and wont to a farm, I was
happy. When tho rebellion came I re-
tnrned to tho Bervico because it was a
duty. I bad no thought of rank ; all I
did was to try and make myself useful.
"My first commission as Brigadier
came in tho unanimous indorsement of
tho delegation from Illinois. I do not
think I knew any of the members but
Washburne, and I did not know him very
well. It was oDly after Donelson that I
began to see how important Iras the work
that Providence devolved upon me. And
yet after Donelson I was in disgrace and
nnder arrest, and practically withont a
command because of some misunder
standing on the part of Halleck. I do
not know what would have come of that
had not the country interferred. You
see Donelsrn was our first clear victory,
and you will remember the enthusiasm
that came with it. The country saved
me from Halleck's displeasure. When
other commands came I always regretted
them.
“When the bill creating the grade of
licntenanl-general was proposed, with my
n-une as tho Iitnienant-Rtneral, I wrote
Mr. YYaabl-nrn opposing it. 1 did not
want it. 1 toned tti-t the bill was right
aud I was wrong.wben I oame to command
the army of the Potomac—that a head
was needed to the army. I did not want
the Presidency, and have never quit for
giving myself lor resigning the command
‘ the army to acoept it; but it oould not
helped. I owed my honors and op
portunities to Ihe Republican party, and,
“ my name could aid it, I was bound to
accept. The second nomination was al
most due to me—if I may nae the phrase
because of the bitterness of political
sud personal opponents.
“My re-election was a great gratification
because it showed me how the country
felt. Then came all the discussions
about the third term. I gave my views
on that in my letter to Senator White, of
Pennsylvania. It is not known, however,
how btrongly I was pressed to enter the
canvass as a candidate. I was waited
npon formally by _a distinguished man,
representing the influences that would
cave controlled the Republicans in the
South, and asked to allow my name to be
used. This request was supported by
men in the Northern States wh038 posi
tion and character are unquestioned. I
said then that nnder no circamstarces
would I become a candidate. Even if
nomination and an election were assured,
I would not ran.
The nomination if I ran wonld be after
a struggle, and before it bad been unan
imous. The election, if I should win.
wonld be after a struggle, Bnd tbs result
wenld be far different from what it was
before. If I succeeded, and tried to do
my best, my very best, I should still
have a crippled administration. This
was the pnbiio view. Personally I was
weary of cffico. I never wanted to get
out of s place as much as I did to get out
of the Presidency. For sixteen years,
from the opening of the war, it had been
a constant strain npon me. So, when the
third term was seriously presented to me,
I peremptorily declined it ” '

The Savannah News says the City
Council lost week passed the ordinance
to compromise the bonded debt ol that
city, by providing for the issue of new
bonds in the placo of tho old ones—the
new bonds to ran for thirty years, and to
bear interest at the rate of five peroent,
per annnm ; the bonds and coupons to be
exempt from taxation, and to bo receiva
ble for all .dues to the city. Tho ordi
nance also provides for tho establishment
of a sinking fund. It is said that ered
itors holding about one million dollars of
the city bonds havo agreed to this com
promise.
In connection with this statement, we
find in the Ninos and Courier, ol Saturday,
that Mr. Purse, chairman of tho fiusuce
committee of the Savannah city council,
recently addressed a meeting of tho
Charleston holders of Savt nnah bonds,
and laid the ordinance before them, and
that a favorable feeling was manifested
towards it- The News and Courier says;
Mr. Purse then addressed the meeting
at some length, giving a clear state
ment of the financial condition of the city
of Savannah. Ho began by giving an
account of the process by which the city
had been brought to its present condi
tion, beginning in tne administration of
Colonel Screven, and running tbrough it,
and tnrongh that of Colonel Anderson,
He submitted a printed statement of tho
city’s financial situation, dated July 1,
1878, showing the assets and resources
to Deoember 31, 1878, to bo J481,967.
The liaDilities are stated as follows:
Current expenses July 1 to
December 31 $ 90,000 00
Floating debt for balance due 100,000 00
$490,000 coupons at 58 per
cent 284,200 00
Total $474,300 00
Mr. Parse attributed much of the un
fortunate situation of Savannah to tho at
tempting of too many internal improve
ments during the inflated period between
18C9 to 1872, by which the bonded debt
increased from about $2,000,000 in
1868 to $3,500,000 in 1878. He thought
a mistake had been mado m not taxing
to pay the floating debt instead of fund
ing it. Meanwhile tbo redaction in the
vaiuo of real estate and tho general de
gression in business had made it utterly
mpoEsiblo for tho city to carry its debt.
Tho average depreciation in tho value of
real estate had been from thirty-three to
to fifty per cent.
The Augusta News announces the
death, last Sunday afternoon, in Emanu

Mountain Trout. — The Dahlonega
Signal says:
It has been demonstrated, so wo are in

ful of this species in a stream on this
side of tho mountain, none of which have

liams, of Nacoochee Valley, also put
something over a hnndred m his fish
pond, but they wero soon discovered on
the surface of the water dead.

An Atlanta letter in tho Griffin Star,
says:
Tho Cotton Factory trouble naB been
amicably adjusted. Mr. H. I. Kimball
will remain president, ox-Govcrnor Bul

secretary. A compromise has been ef
fected, whereby Maj. W. B. Cox and Mr.
Sam M. Inman are to be eleoted directors
at the meeting on the 10th of August,
along with the following members of the
old board : H. I. Kimball, R. B. Bullock
M. R. Berry, B. W. Hunuicutt, V. R.
Tommey, J. C. Peck, and one other gen
tleman whose name I do not now remem
ber. They are to issue one hundred and
fifty thousand dollars in bonds bearing 10
per cent, interest, which, it is said, bave
nearly all been subscribed for already.
They are to be issued immediately, and
the cotton factory to be put in motion as
scon thereafter as possible. So the start

The Colnmbns Enquirer reports a gen.
eral and “glorious” rain in thac section
last Monday. It extended to Geneva.
The Times bos tho following in refer
ence to the probable result in the Con
gressional Convention in the ColnmbuB
district:
The action of the Democrats of Ma
rion, Campbell and Chattahoochee coun
ties, at their primary elections last week,
makes it almost certain that no one of
the four candidates for Congress will go
into convention with a two-thirds major
ity. It is not now probable, indeed, that
either candidate will have a m ijority.
Marion county has gone for Persons,
Chattahoochee probably for Harris and
Campbell for Smith. It is also consid
ered certain that Coweta will go for
Smith, Meriwether for Harris and Talbot
for Person?. There is a report that
Douglass count; has gone for Toggle,
Lut we are not sure of its correctness.
The convention will consist of thirty-
eight delegates, of whom twenty will
constitute a majority and twenty-six,
twe-thirds. Reports from Harris and
Troup lead us to expect close contests in
them, and if Mr, Harris gets both ef
them he will perhaps havo a majority of
the convention.
Thc same paper qnotes Mr. Harris as
replying as follows, in a speech at Ham
ilton on Saturday, to the qnestion wheth
er he wonld abide the action of the nom
inating convention in that district. He
eaid that be would not commit himself to
anj thing that be knew nothing about, hot
that be bad always stood up to a nomi
nation, and that he wonld never fly one.
What he meant by not committing him
self to what he knew nothing abont, was
that be wonld not be chonsed out of it by
political jugglers against the will of the
people. Het would let the people who hsd

aged by a warm response to his signal
to approaoh his charmer. Imagine his

Sunday-School Lemonade.
New York Times. I
It is affirmed by a learned historian
that in the year 1842 lemonade was serv
ed at a Sunday-school picnic in South
Lee, Mass., in which a distinct trace of
lemon was detected by an eminent chem
ist, at that time Professor of Chemistry
in Williams College, who happened to be
present. The event naturally created
great excitement. Many persons denied
tbo whole story from beginning to ond,
while others, among whom were noarly
all the chemists in tho State, insisted
that the Professor’s analysis was worth
less and he knew nothing of tho first
principles of chemistry. Thero is no
doubt, however, that the story is true.
Never, before or since, ba3 lemon been
found in Sunday-school lemonade, bnt,
probably in accordance with some ob
scure* freak of natnre, tho Sonth Lee
lemonade was contaminated either with
crude lemon-peel or citric acid, precisely
which tho historian has not informed ns.
The Sunday-school lemonade of com
merce i3 a harmless fluid, since it consists
entirely of water mingled with a small
quantity of sugar. It may be drank in
large quantities by tbo weakest children
and the most delicate toacheis without
any serious disturbance of their interiors.
It is reported that in moments of enthu
siasm President Hayes is accustomed t>
drink freely of this respectable beverage,
retaining the clearness of bis intellect
nnimpaired even by the deepest pota
tions. In fact, it is believed that Sun
day-school lemonade ia less exhilarating
than weak tea, and there are thousands
of teachers who have drank is two or
three times n year for twenty successive
years without showing any visible marks
of its action.
It is unnecessary to say that profane
persona scoff at Sunday-school lemonade,
and find fault bocauso it baa no streugth.
What wonld such persons bave ? Do
they wish that children and teachers
should wallow in beer or cider, or will
they pretend that champagne and the
other varieties of rum denounced by tem
perance people are proper beverages to
beset oefore the youngand innocent? It
they limit their criticism ot Sundsy-
school lemonade to the fact that it has
no lemon in it, we might understand
that the presence of lemon is regarded
by them as desirable. Do they know
what the effect of real lemon-juice, when
taken into the hnman system, is? Have
they ever experimented with it upon
themselves or even upon a borrowed
small boy ? If not, what words are fit
to characterizs the recklessnees which
will place lemonade with lemcn in it
within the reach of thoughtless children
and innocent teachers ?
In this connection it ia a duty to re
late tbe melancholy results which attend
ed the criminnl use of lemoDS at the
Fourth of July pionio of the twenty-
ninth Methodist Church, :of East Brook-
ville, Cone. In that village resided a
rich yonng man who went openly to the
circus, read novels on Sunday afternoon,
acd was altogether a cait-a-way. Wheu
he wag called npon for a subscription m
aid of the projected piouio, be offered to
bear the whole cost of the affair aud to
give the children better food than they
had ever had before. His offer was ao-
oepted in spite ol bis depraved character,
aud tbe Sunday-school was suddenly re
inforced by a dozen new teachers who
had never oefore shown the slightest in
terest in tho work.
The young man was as good as his
word. The amount snd quality of tbe
lubch which he provided far surpassed
anything of the kind that had ever been
seen at East Brookville before. In tbe
matter of lemonade he created an excite
ment that almcst amounted to open riot
ing. Before tbe day of the pionio he was
heard to say that for onoo he would show
a Sunday-sohocl picnic what real lemon
ade was, and in pursuance of this threat
be sent to Hartford and bought twelve
gross of lemons. On tbe pionio ground
he personally superintended tbe mixing
of the lemonade; approprating a> entire
lemon to a glass of water. Not content
with this be emptied a pint of oitrio acid
into eaoh tub of lemonade, and sweeten
ed the mixtnre with connlless pounds of
sugar. Then be called tbo teachers and
sobolsrs nronnd him, and Announcing
that bis nntimliod supply of pure lemon
ade whs ready for them, urged them to
drink their fill aud bo thunkfnl.
It was about I o’elook p. ffi. when the
thirsty company began to drink tho lem
onade, and with one accord they pro
nouncod tt perfectly splendid. There
was not a person present who did not ad
mit that lemonade, with lemon in it, was
altogether superior to the usual Sunday-
school lemonade. At threo o’clock the
unhappy picnickors were writhing in ag.
ony. Teachers and children, without
distinction of age or sex, wero bent tc
gether as is the jack-knife when it
closed and ready for the pocket. Upon
tbe head of the young man who had
supplied the lemons ana citric acid were
invoked the direst penalties. Every
body wanted to go home, but nobody
could be sufficiently straightened out
to walk or to climb into a wagon
It was then that the young man
displayed a genius for grappling with
emorgonoies. Aided by a farmer whom
bo summoned, ho hnug tho teachers oyer
a fence-rail, and oarrying one end of tho
rail, while the farmer carried the other,
he boro them to tbeir respective homes,
By wbat means their rigidity was subse
quently overcame wo nro not informed,
bnt with two exceptions—one of whom
was n small boy, and tho other the As
sistant Snperintendent—all tbe picuick
era were ultimately straightened, and re
covered wholly from tbe effeots of tho
lemonade.
This teaches ns that it is far safer to
cling to tho simple Bonds; sohool lemon-
ado of our fathers than it is to risk tho
terriblo consequence of bringing tho Sou-
day school stomaob into close relations
with real lemons. East Brookville will
long remember tho dismal spectacle of tbo
miserable teachers hanging like frozen
towels over a wintry clothes line, and is
still firmly determined to mako an exam
ple of tbe wicked young man, if bo ever
ventures to show his face in tho village
egain.
