A loading New York paper eaye that Orest Britain to just now entering a ilar financial strait to that from wbub the United States is jnst emerging, and expresses tbo opinion that It will be equally protracted and severe. We hope not. Great Britain has, of late year?, sustained no great national misfortune, like many other rations of the world. Up to within a year or two she has en joyed an uninterrupted career of money making, rendered all the more rapid and unc- . Esfnl by the misfortune* and neces sities of other powers. She has, to a great extent, monopolized the trade of the worid for the past flftoen yeats, and ought to havo accumulated a reserve of wealth which atould hold her harmless agsiart any eudden reactionary pinch Applying to Slates and communities as politloal economists do, lho tamo general principles which control private fortune?, we should conclode that Great Britain ought to have at jnmnlated in these long years of uninterrupted provperily too vast a fortune to be suddenly wreoked or materially embarri'sed by anything ehort of an overwhelming pnblio calamity. Bnt the experience of nations of late years seems to justify • donbt whether private and publi* wealth are amenable to tbo same controlling causes. In onr own country we see It now alleged almost daily that tho conquered Stales of tho Un ion, whioh lost pretty much all their prop ertyaro to-day In no greatlyworso financial plight than those part* of the oounlry which divided among themselves the spoils of tho oonqnorod and the wealth of the conqueror. In Europe,.to-day, we see Germany, which overran and stripped France, pleading an Insolvent revenue, while France herself stands ju'tnow ns the brightest example in Christendom of financial order and credit. These Illustration are well calculated to ratoo a donbt of the praotlcal soundness of the oomtnon theories of political econ omists. The faot Is, the wealth of nations rests 60 largely in moral oanses, and these latter so largely control and govern tho material silnation. that wo may say. with an approximation to troth, that tbo moral manhood of a nation ia Its wealth, to a far grealer ertent than the gold and ailver in store. And here, too, Great Britain stands nn rivalled. Her Immense material roaor-oes do not surpass or equal her Intalleolnnl and moral wealth. Wo lake oomfort in the faith that abewill be able lo anrmonnl any flnanoial disturbance whioh may now exist with comparative ease and speed. The financial and commercial Intereutu ot the two nations are so intimately blended (hat we shall have little confi' dcnco of order and prosperity here witn financial distress and confusion in Great Britain. True, the succession of great bank failures is ominous of trouble. There 1s probably bound to bo a readjust inent of values, but wo are fall of hope that order will he reatored with all pos sible dispatch. Hart DON'T. Den ; speak anarily to a child.

Dentil ot Hod. .liman ridge, M. V. Tin) wires brought the sad intelligence yesterday of the sodden and unexpected death, at his post in Washington, of this distinguished Georgian. The writer had enjoyed tho privilege of knowing him well for at least a score of years, and can truly fay he was a model type of the Southern statesman anil chivalrous gen tleman. Modest in deportment, and ever un willing to thrust himself forward on pub lic occasions, yst when great emergencies arose, or tho interests of his immediate constituents were at stake, be always sprung full panoplied into tbo arena, and demeaned himself as a gallant knight and ostnto statesman. Few men could stand before him in debate, and ha was most emphatically an eloquent orator, saga cions thinker and reliable representative. Mr. Hsrtridgo was earnestly solicited to "stand" again for Congress at the laat elaclion, and had ho consented to do bo wonhl havo been re-elected, probably without opposition. Bnt this ho refused to do, preferring to return to tho botom of bis family and tho abadea of private life. His term of offico would havo ex pired on tho 4th of March proximo. But alas he never lived to see that day. A native Georgian, possessing the en tire confidence of hia constituents, an ornament to tho city and cncle in which ho moved, a gallant gentleman and ex. ctlient citizen, his taking off will occa- sion an immense void difficult to bo filled in Savannah and the First Congressional District of Georgia. Peaco to his ashes. And may the Father of the fatherless and tho Divine husband of the stricken widow givo strength and consolation to the wife and children who survive him. An .Estimable Lady No more. At 7 o’clock a. m. on yesterday, Jan nary Sib, tho pnro spirit of Mrs. Obedient Pearl Dean passed away, at her residence in Vincville, a suburb of this city. For nearly thirty-five years had she been a patient sufferer, the most of that long period confined to bed. Yet she was ever cheerful and resigned, never com plaining, nnd ever ready to depart and bo at peace. Mrs. Dean was the consort of the late James Dean. Esq., and belonged to the Baptist communion. She leaves to mourn her loss only one daughter, Mrs. La grange, of California, and two step-chil dren, Mrs. General W. S. Holt and Mrs. Colonel J. E. Jones of this city. Several giand children, however, loved and cher ished her to the last moment. Last spring the subject of this notice was attacked with janudiae and baa never fatly recovered from the effects uf that disease. For months she has gradually but perceptibly declined, | receiving all the while the most devoted attentions of her relatives nntil, as stated, she felj atleep in Jesns on yesterday. Calmly and serenely, as twilight fades into the dnsky shades of night, she gently took passage for that bonrna from whence no traveler can return. Conscious, until within a few hoars af dissolution, she ex claimed to her weeping kindred, "it l a good lo have faith—I have faith nuto dsatb. Jesus is with me.” We tender to the bereaved relatives onr einoerest sympathy and condolence. Mrs. Dean was 67 years of age, and a notice of her funeral obsequies will be found elsewhere. Plain Farmer Apraln. l'hto esteemed correspondent sends ns sim- ! another very lengthy communication which, as the arguments adduced are sub- ? taut tally the same aa tboeo already given to the public, is not published. We cin assure onr friend, however, that the editors of this paper are not the champions of guano dealers and opposed to the farmers. On tho contrary we have at *11 times urged the most rigid inspection of tho commercial faiflhw thrown upon the market, and rejoiced with every decline in those plant stimu lants as tending to tbeir more genera! dissemination through the country. We only wish the prioo could be reduced one-Afllf to-morrow, if it did not result in their deterioration and po*illy the actual steppage of the manufactories. AH that we meant to say wa3, that in cur opinion tho dealers had no desire to extort higher prices irom their patrons by asking for more pounds of cotton per ton to make np for the great falling off in the price of tho staple. They assert that the cost of quarrying the phosphite rock and the heavy CX' peu3e attending its trituration and sub sequent manipulation with the necessary chemicals, jnstify tho price demanded, We have no means of knowing whether this bo true or not, bat can cite several prominent instances where the manufac turers have lost heavily by their opera tioiu*. Bnt that is neither hero nor there. Tho whole matter may be crowd ed into the following nutshell. It is to the interest of manufacturers to sell as low as poesiblo to their patrons if they hope lo givo satisfaction, and the farmer^ too, should spare no effort to get his guano upon tho very best terms. It is free fight, and experience has demon etrated that each will win by tho adoption of such a compromise as will inure to tho mutual benefit of both parries to tho controversy, without injuring either. Wo are the friends of tho manufacturers because tho fertilizers they sell are great ly needed and very valuable, and as to tho farmer, he is onr first lovo, and the main spring In the great watch which regulates all tho guilds and enterprises of the universe. Without hi3 sturdy in dustry and patient toil, tho wheels of commerco would stand still; merchants, bankers and mechanics shut up shop, and grim want and famine overtake and starve out all mankind. How prepos terous and uflreasonable, therefore, for our over zealobs friend, "Plain Farmer," to hint that our sympathies are with the guano men and opposed to tho agricul turalist? Does a man quarrel with hta own bread and butter? Every energy of the TEMsaBApn and Hkhbzncieg has been devote#Tor many decades of years to tho advancement of Georgia’s beat interests 33 a planting community, and oven ono brief week since, wo expressed the earnest hope that ours might ever remain an agricultural commonwealth where peace, plonty and virtue shall con tinuo to predominate. "We thank "Plain Farmer" for his friendly words for lho Telkobaph, and beg him not to misinterpret onr position, wbich is that of a poacamaker and earnest friend to every party in this controversy. Georgia needs guano to recuperate her exhausted "old red hills," but the article, if not furnished at living rates, must ho abandoned. Wo are assured that tho nmnnfacturers of fertilizers will realize this fact, and reduce thoir tariff of prices accordingly. What wo dopreeato is any tad feeling or war in tno promises. Justice lo Captain W.D, Grant A friend asks ns to publish the follow ingrepott of one of the Legislative Pen itentiary Committee, Hon. J, M. Wilson, which goes very far to exonerate Captain Grant for wiltul nogleot and ornelty to wards the oonviots under his charge. Wo olip from tho Atlanta Gazelle: Sandtown, Ga., Deo. 30Lb, 1878. Capl. W. D. Grant, Atlanta, Qa; Dxau Sin—Yonr favor of tho 20th to hand, asking for a copy or my report of yonr Richmond Comty camps lo tho Com mittee on Penitentiary. I sm very sorry to have to say I did not retain a oopy of tho report; hot will say it waa favorable, as nothing I conld sea during my slay warranted anything else bnt a favorable on*. I visited tho camp unexpectedly to yonr men in charge—arrived while tho convicts were at dinner. I found they had plenty to eat, consisting of bread meat, peas, turnips and syrup. (Being hungry myself, I nto heartily and con sidered it good). Their quarters were comfortable enough, with plenty of blan kets, etc. Their clothes were of good woolen stripes, and I considered them comfortable, good shoes, etc. I made special inquiry about tho mor tality at this camp—inquired of citizens who seemed to bo well acquainted with all tho circumstance?, and they attribute it to purely a local cause, and I am of the same opinion. Sinco tbo summer lias passed nnd tho camp has bees removed, the mortality has nluicst entirely ceased. I visited several other camps and found none to equal it exoept Dado minos, which was some better. Is being perma nent was one reason, I suppose, for its being so wolt fixed np. If J am able at aDy time to got my ro port, I will furnish yon with* copy. Witli respect, I am yours, truly, J. M. WlMON. Mu. Howeix Cobb, of Athens, also rays that several years ago when tho Northeastern Road leased fifty of the con victs from Captain Giant, that there was not a man who did not want to stay with Captain Grant. They wore all more than Eatisfied with their treatment under Captain Grant,and could not be persuaded to go with the new lessees. Those of the convicts who were allowed to atay with Captain Grant expressed great joy at the fact, while those who had to leave were equally sullen. Very far ha it from the editors of tho Tclxjeaph and Messenger to do inten tional injury to Captain Grant or anyone else. We trnst the alleged treatment of tbo convicts will be thoroughly probed and ventilated, that the truth may come out. We have no personal feeling in the matter. Heai.tr or Mb. Stephens.—The Wash ington telegrams stats that Hon. A. H. Stephens would resume his seat in the House of Representatives to-day. Bon Caxiebon's Re-election to the Senate,according tojlhe New York Herald, is sure. The Pennsylvania Legislature m)t yesterday and the opposition lo Psmsron was inconsiderable. New Yobe went skating on tho Central Pork ponds last Sunday and forgot her prayers—measurably. Death or Representative Hast- ridge.—Georgia will be earpneed and pained at the announcement of the sod den death of Hen. Julian Hartridge, Representative in Congress of the 1st Congressional District of the State. The only premonition of this calamitous event was the telegram of tbs day before, an nouncing Mr. Hartridge's illness of pr.eumcnia—an announcement less por tentous c-f evil to Southern ears than it is to Northern men. Pneumonia in this section is a milder ana more manageable disease than in i cider climates. Mr. Hartridge must have had a very malig nant attack. Yellow Fever.—To ameliorate the dreadful effects of Yellow Fever take Simmons’ Liver Regulator. Let it be given in large doesa, that it may havo an immediate effect upen the liver, and re move the accumulating bile. It so acts upon the liver, stomach and blood as to prevent the attack of this terrible dis ease, janS.lw. ThelfaviiailAhhi Flint Hirer. The opening up to navigation of this stream would be a great blessing ts thou sands of farmers who cultivate the adja cent lands, and can thus find cheap trans portation for their produce, turpentine and timber to tide water. The government seem3 to have gone to work in earnest about it, as the follow ing from the Montezuma Weelbj will show: It gives us great pleasure to announce the safe return ol Messrs J K Maxwell anil Win Minor, tiro ol our ritistns who accompanied Col Robin* son and crew down to Albasy, on tho prelimi nary survey ol Flint river. Thess gentlemen give mattering account of the trip. »nd rvpott that tho surveyor. Col Robinson, expressed great astonishment that the river had notbeen made nsvigabIe,for steamers. long since. There are but three bad places in the river between this point and Albany. The first Is at a place called Hell Sate, where the river has lately changed its channel by breaking through a nar row track ol land, shortening the distance nearly a mile. The obstructions at Hell Gato cau be removed at a very small cost to the government, Abram’s creek shoals are the next obstructions met with, and at the very lowest stage ol th river two feet of water can be had over the high est rock in them. Wing dams, at a small cost ( will be the remedy here. The next and last oh- structionia Black Jack shoals, not more than 23 feet across, and, ot course, can be removed very easily. Col Robinson to pleased with the river, and will make a favorable report to the govern meat, recommending that the river be opened at once. We call the attention ol our immediate Representative, Hon Phil Ccok, to the matter and, with the thousands of bis friends in this section, beg that he keep his shoulder square up to onr grand enterprise until he succeeds in get* ting a suitable appropriation for the cleaning out of the river. A Safe Loan.—If a man is going to loan hia money without security, be should study tbo method of Prime, Ward & Ring, as told by tho World, thus A story is told of a friend who wished to borrow $100,000 at short notice, and who offered to pay threo per cent, a month interest and to give ample security. Mr. Ring protested that no business could stand such a premium for money. The friend persisted, however, and was over joyed when Mr. King promisod to dis count bis note for $100,000, for three year?, at tho interest named. “What collateral do you want?” the merchant inquired. “None whatever," Mr. King replied. "Yonr nolo will bo sufficient." Presently a clerk, who hail been in structed to draw a check for the talanca duo tbo merchant, handed him the fol lowing statement: Note of Mr. D„ pajabte threo years af ter date, for... $1CO,COO Diicount at 3 per cent.* month is 3a per eent. per year, and for three years ICS per cent., or.- 1*8.000 Balrnce due Prime, Ward A King (8.000 This ended all argument, amd the mer chant was quite willing to promise that he would never pay in the future more than 7 per cent, interest. Mr. King at onco accommodated him with a short loan at the regular discount. Ardent Spirits.—Tho heady and tu multuous current of teetotalism has been latterly interrupted by startling an nonnccmenU that the liquid poison theo ries are all stuff. The Herald, of the Gth, leads off with a declaration from lho great medical light of London, Sir James Padget, that "there are onfficient reasons for behoving that tho moderate use of ardent spirits is, on tho whole, generally beneficial." Perhaps, bnt tho practical danger and trouble ia in tho moderate use, It ie easier to (asto not than to avoid drinking too deep. Far safer it is, es pecially for tho young, to leave them alone. THE GEOHOIA PKEB8. Emancipation Dat. — Our oolored friends in Savannah turned out unani mously to celebrate Lincoln's proclama tion of emancipation. A colored regi ment of eight companies was on parade. Tho Oolqnitt Bines did not put in an appearance, as their uniforms had nob arrived, and the Hews says the ForeBt City Light Infantry had a dispnts as to their right, by seniority, to occupy the front placo in tbo line, and in consequenco withdrew and paraded by themselves. The regiment was commanded by Col. W. H. Woodhouse, and marched through tho principal streets, attended by a jubi lant crowd of colored admirers. The News siye: On reaching tho Park extension tho troops -were drawn up in line, tho Geor gia Artillery ran their guns into position, and after the necessary preparation fired a salnte in honor of the day and in com pliment to each State in tho Union. After this demonstration the crowd col lected aronnd a stand arranged for tho occasion, when the emancipation proola- matiou was read by L. B. Toomer. An addrcBs pertinent to the celebration, and containing some good and sensible advioe to the colored people, was then delivered by John H. Deveaux. Tho companies were dismissed, and with their friends proceeded to the dis cussion of the contents o! tho baskets, and for a time the sceno presented the appearance of a great picnic or camp ing ground. Tho day was passed with out disturbance of any kind, although we noted several colored men who had evi dently been priming up with potent fluid; but the conduct of the colored troops was most creditable, and tbeir presence and orderly behavior was sufficient to keep the most boisterous from creating any trouble. About fire o’clock the companies marched back to the city, and returned to their respective armories. At night balls were given at their halls, and the celebration closed with music and dan- cmg. We are in favor of letting the "man and brother” celebrate whenever and as- often os he pleases. Magnificent Charity.—Mr. James A. Gray, of Augusta, donated twenty pairs of blankets to the suffering poor of Augnsta on tbo Gth inst. They were received and distributed by the Judge of the County Court, Hon. Vt. F. Eve. Mere aid ia urgently called for. The Cotton Sample Muddle in Ad- gusta—The cotton buyers are still agi tating as totcho is entitled to the samples taken from the cotton bales of the farmer. (We can’t see what right anybody else has ts them), and the dispute waxes sharp and warmer. We quote a paragraph or two from the Chronicle and Constitution alitt: Maj. W. F. Alexander said he had scan nnmber ot sellers end buyers «ud be was satisfied that an adjustment conld be made. It was better to yield a little ou both sides than to keep up this disgraceful wrangling. Prominent sellers had told him tuat if the buyers would appoint a committee to meet a similar oommittee of sellers, a settlement could bo effected. He moved that a committee of three be appointed to mnet a committee of buyers with this view. CoL Znlavaky . seconded the motion. He IboOKbt with ilsj. Alex ander, that it was better to make small concessions than to brake np the Ex change. Mr. Hickman did not believe in- yield ing anything. The trouble hid been com menced by the other side. Mr. Wilm&ns called onMaj. Alexander for a statement in regard to wbat be thought conld be done. Maj. Alexander said after talking with some of the principle factor?, he was as- snred that it the buyers would agree not to bill cotton baok to the sellers, for ehort weight, nolsas tnan short weight was more than fifty pounds in a hundred balsa, or a half pound a bale, and to rewetgh insid e of two day?, the matter ocnld be settled by 10 o'clock Tuesday morning. The Milledgeville Union and Jlecorder soys: In the last irsue of the Old Capital newspaper, Mr. E. P. Speer, its editor and proprietor, announces to the public that *ts publication in this city will cease from the 4th last., and that its business will be moved to Macon and incorporated into a new daily paper soon to be estab lished in that city, to be styled the Eve ning Ledger. Wo are sorry, truly, to I030 Mr. Speer as a citizen. Intelligent, public-spirited and gifted with an untiring industry, if any man could have made that paper stand on a firm and sure foundation, Mr. Speer was that man. His failure to reap the success he anticipated proves un questionably that two newspapers cannot thrive in Milledgeviile. We are indebted to tbe Union and Re corder for a compliment “over the left.” Well, it is the old story of “one’s being wounded in the horn) of hia friends,’’ and we shall not retaliate. Resolved to “Contest.’’.—Mr, J. A. Richardson, defeated oardidate for tax oolleotor of Faltou county, has employed Major R. J. Moses and C. H. Williams 03 attorneys to contest tho eleotion. He thinks 2,000 persona voted who did not pay taxea. Holliday reoeived 1,936 votes Collins 1,873, [and Biobxrdeon 1,362. Others are going to oontest, and the Gov ernor will ask Attorney General Ely for his opinion ou the question of voting without paying taxes. Hill and Mubpht Again.—Rome Courier: Senator Hill said yesterday, says tho Philadelphia Times, that ho isn’t making any war on Governor Colquitt, but is determined to drive the Governor’s private secretary, Murphy, to the dogs, because Murphy has been guilty of gross corruption. Well, Murphy is not the Governor’s private secretary, hut 13 a clerk in the Treasury Department of the State, and Governor Colquitt did not put him there, neither can he dismiss him.

Tho bill also prayed the Chancellor to enjoin the Sinking Fund Commission from purchasing any of tbo canal bonds, It was handed to Judge Snead yesterday morning and in tho afternoon his Honor parsed the following order : At Chambers, Augusta, Ga., January G, 187!). Upon hearing and considering the within bill I am not satisfied that the causes therein stated are sufficient to au thorize the issuing of tho injunction prayed for, or even tho restraining order. It is therefore refused.

A Sad Accident.—Griffin Sun: Eirly yesterday morning tho wife of Mr. Griffin, a merchant at Sonny Side, was severely if not fatnlly burned. The circumstances, as welearned them, arc about as fellows: Mr. Griffin, hor husband, had gone on a visit to.his father-in-law in Monroe coun ty, and Mrs. Griffin was alone, with the exception of a servant girl, who was in an adjoining room. At an early hour yesterday morning the girl heard a groan ing noise m the room of Mrs. Griffin, and rushed in to see what was the matter, and found her in the fire, with all her hair burned off, and ono side of her face burned to the bone, and part of her tongue burned out. Dr. I’otples, of Hampton, was at once sent for, and arrived in a short time, and, aftor examining tbo burns, said it was impossible for the un fortunate lady to recover. It to not known how sho came to fall into the fire, as no one was at homo at the time it occurred. Mr. Griffin was tolcgiaphod to at once, At this writing we do not know whether tho lady is dead or not. Election or County Officers in Ma con County. — From tho Montezuma IFetHy we learn that Mr. G.

The Novel Spectacle Tint Won seem la (he Colombia Veteri nary College. New York Sun. I Profeasors and students of the Colom bia Veterinary College in Thirty-fourth street, near Third avenne, on Thursday morning, dragged tbe carcass of the baby elephant that died the night before in Cen tral Park into their oonrt yard. Then they prepared to hoist it to their disieot- ingroom. Tho great weight of tbe animal alarmed them for the safety of their pni- lies and hoisting-ropes. Refieotion over come this diffiouity. At nightfall they had fitted up au incline plane, plaoed the animal upon it and adjourned for the morrow’s work. There gathered yestorday abent the body Prof. Ed. KpilcSra, Dr. Finlay and a host of students. Before firing the ropes aud taokling, they stripped the monster of its akin, thereby saving the hoisting of a hundred pounds. Slinging the body upon the table the students pre pared for the autopsy. T«o seniors, George H. Ba. is and Charles A. Meyer, with a junior, went with sharpened knives at the abdomen, while Professor Spitzka and Finlay cat and oarved about the head. When ths examination was finished Professor SpKzka gava an explanation of the antopsy: This animal was about two years old and had not, of coarse, attained its full growth. Its weight was about eight hun dred pounds. That spongy, honey combed looking bone contains the air chambers. You notice that there are two skulls. In the skull of the elephant that wont mad in the Royal Collego of Lon don 400 bullets were imbedded, yet only one of that number caused death. The only way to death, in my opinion, when firing at the head, is through the eye. “This is the brain. Its weight is five pounds,” the Professor said. Placing human brain beside it,* he continued "Tho intellectual portion is woll develop ed. The convolutions are more intricate than those of tho human brain. The spinal cord is not aa large aa that of u horse. Tho trunk is rich in nerveB nnd mnscles. Tbe eye is smaller than the horse’s. The heart, you will notice, has two point); in that it differs from all oth er animals. This shape is seen iu a ma rine monster, whose shape is somewhat like that of the porpoise. The complex mass of muscle on the neck, which sup ports the head, is most interesting. The direct cause of death was pulmonary con- geation. The lungs were so congested that they sank in water.” The hide was exhibited. The covering of the feet looked like Urge rubber shoes The hide of this part ia more than three- quarters of an inch in thickness. Wall Street is where money is made rapidly.

If we violate them we cannot expect to “make old bones.” Bat that the spro of existence allotted to a naturally delicate constitution, or one which ha9 been sha ken by diseaSo may lie materially length ened, is a faot of which we have daily proof.

Bulldozing in Massachusetts. — Tho New York World, through a commit tea of its correspondents and staff, is printing columns in exposition of intimi dation in Massachusetts, whereon tho St. Louis Post remarks: Tho New York World deserves credit for furnishing, through an intelligent correspondent, the clear add ample evi dence of what everybody already knew— that tho power and influence of tho em ployer over the employed is nowhere ex ercised with less scruple and more vigor than in New Eogland. All the bulldoz ing charged against the South is mere child’s-play compared with the way it is practioed in old Massachusetts over tho poor factory hands. “Intimidation” there ia reduced to a fine art. We need hardly say in what utter contempt we hold Mr. Ben Butler, and how his recent defeat seemed to us to be demanded by tho in terest and honor of Massachusetts. Yet there seems to be no doubt whatever that his defeat was brought about by the most systematic and unscrupulous intim idation of the poor workingmen, who were told by their masters that they had to choose between Butler and—bread.
