that this last depth, at low water, i«* the
leaat that can be encountered between
New Orleans and deep water in tbo Gulf.
This is four feet more than can be car
ried over the bar at Sandy Hook in low
tide.
Ah to the Florida canal, Capt. Eada
had given it no personal investigation,
but in connection with the improved
marine access to New Orleans, he con-
rider ed it an enterprise of great import
ance and likely to bring a good return to
investors.
Capt. Eads was on his way to Europe,
partly for relaxation and partly in the
interest of the proposed marine railway
across the I-thm^s of Darien. For this
enterprise he stated that tho funds wero
all ready whenever ho was ready to be
gin the work. He confidently hoped to
be able to transport tbo largest mer
chant vessels, fully loaded, from the
Caribbean Sea to tho Pacific O^ean with
in the next four years. The cost of the
road would not be a quarter of the cost
of tho canal on its lowest estimate, and
its expense would be susceptible of ac
curate estimate, while no man could com
pnte tho cost of the canal, dependent,
it must be, on tho nature of the Boil and
rock to be excavated, and tbo diflicnlty
of drainage for tho parpasi of excava
tion.
The road would transfer tho Bhip from
sea to sea its twelve hours, without inju
ry, and at much less expense than the
canal. His plan of the road met all the
difficulties of a change of grade and
direction in the road. This was done by
turn tables of a peculiar construction
which ho described. There would be no
difficulty in tne transfer of these ships
on trucks, without injury, and the pla:
of flDating them in tanks was impractic
able, because it would reqaire the trans
portation of more than their weight in
water, for which there would be no com
pensation.
Hazing.
The authorities of Princeton College
havo taken a wise step in advance of the
opening of another academic year. They
have notified the parents or guardians of
every member of the Sophomore class
that any student found guilty of hazing
will be at once and irrevocably expelled.
This notification, it may be hoped, will
clear the atmosphere of the college effect
ually before tho reassembling of the
classes, and it promises well for the p»aee
and ccmfort of tho Freshmen of 1879 80,
as to whom tho cry already is that they
aro coming in like Jean Ingelow’s High
Tide. Tho discussion and revelations Bet
on foot in tho nowapapera by the recent
expulsion of six cadets from West Point
have shed a flood of new light on the mor
al and physical aspects of hazing. We
see, with amazement, that the practice
is defended by its partisans on high mora^
grounds, ns essential to the proper xo>-
thetical and mental development of the
sufferers. A few buckets of cold water
and a gentle rubbing down with an oaken
cudgel or n bundle of switches aro thought
to have a wondrous efficacy in ridding
boy of the rural slouch, and imparting an
air and spirit of discipline and culture.
In the light of these suggestions we
can think of nothing but the plaintive re
monstrances of a colored seamstress with
her mistress, tho other day. Tho speak
er had Buffered from a long and bad spell
of the ujlics t to which she was subject
occasionally, and insisted upon receiving
a whipping for it; and ehe was much an
noyed to find she could not be accommo*
dated. She was sure 6be should feel
better if eomebodv would whip her. It
would tako the ngliesout of her—“limber
her jinte,” And make her feel good all
over. Perhaps if, as in this case, th
freshmen will unite in a petition for the
rc-esthblUhmeut of hazing on tho high
moral grounds taken by the Seniors, it
may bo revived.

Tito First liatu Delusion.
This year, in the face of n general crop
prospect which seems to ns ns nnpromis-
iog as we have seen it for the past five or
six years, “first hales” ccmo in seven to
ten days ahead ot last year! How is it?
It seems easy of explanation. An un
precedented drought terminated by the
deluge of the last few days, had hurried
small and advanced portion of the
growing crop into a premature opening
and the scanty lint scattered here and
there on n plantation has been collected
at great labor to win the celebrity and
prioe of a “first bale.”
The hulk of the crop itself was dwarfish
and admitted to be three weeks behind
that of last year. The scanty fruit,
blossoms and fotins clinging to it when
these deluging rains set to, it may well hi
feared, will now disappear, und the weed
put on a now growth which may place it
as to solid, fruit-bearing and picking an
additional six to eight weeks behind la-r
year.
These we take to be the facts in the
ease. Tho fancies raised by these first
bales will be dissipated in a short time,
bnt, meanwhile, prove very delusive to
buyers and sellers. Much, of course, de
pends on the weather and the lateness of
the fall, hut the prognostication cf n light
cotton crop seems to us as reasonable ns
it has been known to be for the past six
years.
It Should Pass.—The funding bill

We believe a vast majority of the tax
payers of the city earnestly favor the
adoption of the bill in question, which is
a compromise measure.
■The Chicago Tribune announces as a
new feature in the grain trade, that orders
have been received in St. Louts forab.ut

to be heavily short, and this will ooceesarily

e’-irrua which, one after another, rose
bla k a= ink above the rim cf the bori20E
ami then buret like waterspouts upon the
landscape, a goodly number of citizens
of both Eeies bad the patriotism and
hardihood to brave the tempest and come
out to at’- cd what ia usually the most
popular gathering in Bibb county, the
Oemnlgee Farmers’ Club. There were
not thru four hundre l persons pres
ent, in.’.uding one hundred ladies, the
latter by actual count. And they stood
it out bravely to the end, tbe dear girls
clearly evincing that they were not made
of dissolving materials like sugar and
salt.
The premium list, and somo mention
of the literary exercises of the day, to
gether with a portion of the incidents of
the occasion have already been portrayed
in our local columns of yesterday. This
is intended to be merely a supplementary
report of the proceedings. .
And. imprimis, we would advert again
to the interesting historical essay of Mr.
B. W. Lundy, and the incomparable ad
dress of Colonel Thomas Hardeman, Jr.
The former, from its very minuteness
and the graphic descriptions given of tho
Various early settlements of Howard Dis
trict in Bibb county, tbe names and bis>
tory of the leading men, the numerous
anecdotes illustrative of frontier life, and
the progress, step by step, from tho un
trodden wilderness to tho highest degree
of civilization, was listened to for about
an nonr with tho closest attention. Wo
hope to give onr readers the benefit of
this contribution to tho early history of
Bibb, and therefore will not mutilate it
by partial mention.
Col. Hardeman’s effort, though not the
most showy, wai in realty one of the
ablest of his life. In the present in
stance the speaker sought to grapple
with facts only, tbongh hi3 remarks
were interposed with brilliant flights cf
imagery and beautiful figures which
ever and anon inadiated the Btrong logic
of his argument with flrshes like those
of the Aurora Borealis. Nor were tbe
addenda of pointed anecdotes and broad
bnmor wanting to make up the tout em-
scmlle of this stirriDg oration. The peo
ple listened, applauded, laughed and
then became sober and attentive agaiD,
as they drank in the words of wisdom
which came as by authority from the
lips of the honored President of the
State Agricultural Society. •
The burden of the Colonel's address
was the snpremo importance to tho
farmer of ksepinj out */ debt. This
le -son they hsd been taught by sad expe
rience in the past. They bad profited by
it, as tho presence of tha ladies nuder the
gloom of tboso weeping skies, and the
deep interest they took in ths farm dis
plays of their husbands and brothers
abundantly testified. Every farmer mast
sddre-s himself to his duties with all ths
zeal of an enthusiast if he would hope to
succeed. One truth demonstrated in
practice was worth any amonnt of theo-
rotrioU instruction. He did not, how
ever, by any means underrate book learn
ing for the farmer. Ou the oontrary, it
was science and research into nature’s ar.
cans that furnished the ground-work for
the practical applications of ths farmer.
Thu (wo were not antagonistic. But we
toek no notes, and canoot follow Colonel
Hardeman in his remarks, which were al
most entirely extemporaneoui. Tbe only
written portion was a deeply interesting
statement of the origin of tho State Agri-
cnllnrxl Society, the names of ita foun
ders, embracing some of tbs noblest sons
of Georgia, ils early straggles, and sub
sequent rapid rise and progress.
Colonel Hardemaa is a natural orator,
and never seems at a Iosb for thoughts or
language, it matters not how suddenly
called upon. As the president of the
State Agricultural Society, he is doings
great work for the people, and seldom
fails to a tend tho fairs and agricultural
gatherings of tho country, where his voico
ia ever uplifted in behalf of the true in
terests of tbe community.
It should b) said also that the presi
dent of the club, A. M. Lockett, Esq.,
opened tho procedings with an excellent
practical address, in which ho spoke
words of the warmest welcome to all
present, and called upon them to excuse
the deficiencies that might appear in the
xbibition. Tho drought had prevailed
to such an extent at oue timo that it was
feared they could make no exposition at
all. As it was, so disheartening had
be. it the disastrous season upon the club,
that out of sixty members only twelve
farmers bad appeared with their field pro
ducts. The president’s worm welcome
was received with general applause, and
then the regular speaking of the day, as
related, began.
But if tha exhibitors were few, they
made it up in the exteDt, variety and ex
cellence of the contributions. The annu
al Exposition of the Oemnlgee Club
would have filled an important- space in
the State Agricultural Fair, and passed as
fitst*class for the show of a whole coun
ty. Let ns take a bird’s-eye view of what
was to be seen.
Beginning first in the long extempo-
riztd shelter oovered with bagging, erect
ed for field pro. acts, we found Brob-
diu.fgian spec in ens of Indian corn,
laden with lusty eats; rank beads of
German millet, rice over two feet in
height, heavy bailey, oats threshed and
in the -heaf, as bright and flue as those
grown iu Illinois, the celebrated Schley
-host, plump as a c >ffee berry, by J. IV.
Myriek, corn ripe enough to grind, sweet
potatoes also, well grown and shapely,
a large display of cotton stalks of the
most eppre-vtd variet es, as well grown es
ta ordinary seasons and loaded with bolls'
Blossom.- and forms, immense specimens
of beets, squashes, tomatoes, onions,
Irish potatoes, cabbages,co'.Iards, carrots,
cucumbers, green peas, roasling-ears,
melons, peaches, apples, grapes, a mag
nificent show of kershaws as crooked as
the ram’s horns that levelled the walls cf
Jericho, and each cue big enough to
make pies sufficient to feed for a day all
the frequenters of Delmonicos saloon,
reared by our neighbor Mr. S. I. Gustin,
who exhibited choice canteloopes also;
groun.-.-peas, twenty kinds of garden
seeds by oue farmer, dried fruit, a new
kind of slock food resembling the
ground pea tut ramifying from the
joints ia all directions. The kernel of
this is encascu in a hull like a hickory-
nut and is nearly rcuud. This nut is in-
f.-rior to tbe ground-pea in value but
v*rv fattening for hogs.
The ladies contributions which were
displayed in the club house would com-
pire favorably, with any we have ever
seen.
They included cakes, bread, biscuits,
rolls, honey, batter, fruits, preserves.
jellies, piekl’3, flowera in profu
sion, wines, cordis!?, needle work,
and wine. Of the latter Mra A. M. Lock
ett exhibited no less than thirty-one
varieties of domestic manufacture, every
one of which were clear of sediment,
bright and sparkling. It was a surprise
to us, and we append tbe names: Ca
tawba, Marilla Cherry, Apple, Persim
mon, Winter Grape, Banana, Dewberry,
Map-pop, Fig. Blackberry, Watermelon,
Plum, Wild Summer Grape, Concord,
Ked Haw, Whortleberry, Pemegranate,
Isabella Grape, Tomato, Peach,
liaison Wine, Alder-berry, Fox
Grape, Madeira Grape, Quince Wine,
Yellow Plant, Pear, Scnppernong
and Muscadine. We doubt if any
exposition in the Union ever presented
such an array of home made wines, all
pare and delicion3.
There were fine samples of soap also,
and Mr. B. W. Lundy exhibited a simple
but complete Watergate.
In the stock department we saw
some fine blooded milch cows and heifers,
and one ball of great size.
Tho display of horses was not Urge
bat the mare and colt of Mr. W, W.'
Hightower, of the “ Gold Dost ” stock
would have taken a premium at tho
world’s exhibition.
The barbecue was ono of those old-
fashioned ante-bellum allairs when the
cost was never calculated, and there was
no end to tho munificent feast provided
for all. On this occasion a regiment
•night havo dined and still left a goodly
remainder uaconsumcd.
Tha entertainment came oil at the
beantifnl grounds of Captain K. E. Fatk,
belter known as tbe former plantation of
Gen. W. S. Holt. That worthy gentle
man was present, and narrated many in
cidents connected with his early days on
that identical spot, when bh yet tie city
of Maoon had net crossed ever to tbe
west side of the Oemnlgee.
In the evening a terrible storm caused
about forty persona to claim the hospital
ities of Captain Park for the night, and
mnsio and dancing etfcotually banished
all care for tbe tempest without.
But such was not tho good fortune of
those wbo essayed to brave the raging
waters of no less than three swollen
oreeks in the relcrn to Macon. Quite a
adapter of accidents ensued, some fanny,
others bordering upon tbe trBgicnl. We
are tempted to re-produoa a few of tho
more lndiarous of theso mishaps by flood

The Atlanta Post Bays:
Yesterday during an examination of
tbe house in which old mau Dcfoor and
his wife wero killed, the small red pocket
book which was missing was found in a
mng on the mantel. When found it
contained all the missing notes, $1,100
ia all, and $120 id money. No knowl
edge oE how it carno there is had by any
of the family, but it ia believed to have
been put there sinco the murder. ' Thus
some one is trying to destroy a link in
tho testimony which shall,aooner or later,
convict them.
The rost also says two more negroes
have been arrested on suspicion of con -
ncction with the crime. Two other no-
groes who were arrested have proved all*
bis and been discharged.
Thzbe were four deaths in LaGrange
in twenty-four hours, last week.
The Tzhkoeaph asd Messenger has
already put on record its decided opinion
as to the non-liability of Messrs Grant
and Nutting on the Jones bond, and still
stand by that jndgment. But as matters
of Slate news the following on the ether
line finds an appropriate place in this
column. First,the LaGrange Heporler a iys:
The question of relieving Messrs.
Grant and Nutting from the bond which
they made for Jobu Jones, former State
Treasurer, is one which properly belongs
to the judiciary and not to the LsgiBlo-
ture. These gentlemen claim that their
bond was only a temporary one, and ia
consequence that they sbouid not be held
responsible for the ebortcomfnga of the
Treasurer after the time expired for
which tt-e bond was made. We maintain
that this involves legal questions which
can only be properly settled by the courts,
and that therefore the Legislature can
properly take .no action on it. Legisla
tive action on it would be the interference
o! one branch of the government with the
other. If MesErs. Grant ana Xatiiag are
not legally liable on tbe bond, they should
be relieved. II they are legally liable,
they should be held so. The Legislature
is much more apt to come to a wrong de
cision iu the matter than the Supreme
Court. M-ssrs. Grant and Nutting can
get justice before that court.
The Greensboro Herald says:
The Legislature has not yet ttksn ac
tion on the measure for the relief of Grant
and Nutting, Becuritits on Treasurer
Jones' bond. In our judgment it is exceed
ingly rare when the Leg e store should
intsrferfere to graut relief t > parties held
liable by the Judiciary department of the
Government; aud neither Messrs. Graut
and Nutting nor their friends have shown
ns any reason why their ea-e should De
an exception to the rule. Tha most that
they oootend for is, that when they
signed the Treasurer’s bond they under,
stood it to be a temporary bond tiey weie
executing; that tha Treasurer approached
them for tbe purpose of getting their sig
natures only to euch a bond. We believe
they have never contended this was the
positive understanding between them and
the Governor, tbe authorized agent to
act in the matter in behslf of the State.
Tney signed a bond which shows upon its
face that it is a peman-.nt one;-there
is no condition m it that it shall
be void when the new bond is given; no
condition that the parties shall be liable
only foe each deficit of the principal as
may oeeur up to the time of giviDg the
new bond. So far a3 the evidence indi
cates ths Governor receives it as an ab
solutely permanent bond. It is filed
with the archives of tne State. After
the new bond is given, no effort is made
to have the first cancelled. With the
two bunds the State feels secure. If
the first had indicated it was only ot a
temporary character, or if any effort
had been made to have it canceled when
the last was given, then the State by its
agent would have had opportunity cf
fully indemnifying itself against loss by
compelling the Treasurer to give as secu
rities more responsible men than thoie
on his lost bond. According to Messrs.
Grant and Xattmg they made an egre
gious blunder by giving tbe bond as
they did. Now who should suffer cy
that blander? they or the Slate of Geor
gia, who, they have failed to show, ia
responsible for it? It seems to ns there
can be but one answer to the question;
aud thatjs, let the law have its course.
We have left out of view the bad prece
dent which would be established, should
these parties he granted relief. Grant
them relief on their own showing, and
no longer will the people be securely in
demnified against the misconduct of those
who handle the public treasure.
EETBENciisiENr u a Hoi:s"—When
ever, says the Hartwell Nun, under
this slangy bead, tbe Lgiianre
wishes to make a show of retrench
ment it begins by ontling down the
oonnty officers’ meagre salaries and the
printers' insignifioant fees. This is all
bosh, and intended to blind the people.
Why don’t they atrike at tho big salarei
of tbe State officers and the per diem of
tne members of tbe Legislature? B.-gm
the reform and reirecoliment at tho ospi-
tol—don’t take the little end first. How
would this sound: A hill to regnlato the
lawyers’ fees in estate cases?
The Lunatic Asylum—A few days
since, says the Atlanta Constitution, “tho
Governor was unanimously requested 6y
the committees of tha Senate and House
to appoint a skillful physician on tbe
board of ot trustees of tho State Lunatic
Asylum to fill tho vacancy on the board
occasioned by the death of Colonel J. S.
Pinckard. The board of trustees itself
favored this view of the matter. In ac
cordance with this suggestion, Governor
Colquitt aDpointed on yesterday Dr. H.
H. Hall, of Milledgeville. Dr. Hall is a
physician of prominence and distinction,
aud is well qualified in every way for the
place. The fact that he resides at Mill
edgeville and can always be near tho
scene of hi3 duties is another reason
that induced tho Governor to make this
appointment. It is a good one and will
be heartily endorsed.”
What Augusta is Doing.—The Chron
icle sums it op a3 follows. And a gcod
showing it makes, toe:
There are now four cotton factories in
operation, with an aggregato capacity of
over 40,000 spindles und a fifth, tbe Sum
merville Mills, will soon be turning out
checks, stripes and plaids. A large
waste factory ou the river bank does a
tnriving business. Two iron foundries
are constantly busy. Three flour and
grist mills, using altogether nearly six
hnndred thousand bushels of grain annu
ally, are running night and iliy to supply
the demand for flour and meal. An oil
factory turns an immense quantity of
cotton seed into oil and stock meal or fer
tilizers. Two ice factories turn ent
about thirty thousand ponndB of ice per
day. A cotton gin manufaotory has been
established and is rapidly putting up
gins, condensers and feeders. Three ma
chine shops make every description of
caipenter's work.
The La Grange Reporter has a thor*
ongh belief in Comptroller Goldsmith’s
innocence, bnt insists that “he onght to
be tried, however. It is doe to the State
and to himself that tbe matter be thor
oughly sifted. If he is guilty, he should
be properly pnnisbed. If he is not gnilty,
bis innoceuoo should be made as clear as
human testimony cau mako it”.
Spkaeino of old Jonathan Noroross’
recent declaration that “there aro several
strong mi n among the “independents,”
so oalled, the Usury oonnty Weekly says:
This is provtn b/the fact that in the
last Congressional election two of the
districts were carried for men who are
now attempting to disintegrate the Dem
ocracy of Georgia. Other facts and signs
stand onl plain as the son at noonday
that Stephens, Felton, Norcrosa and tho
odds and ends of both tho Independent
and Badical parties will unite like tho
Zulus of Africa in Th- lr charge upon tho
solid ranks of the British army, in order
to crush the Democatio party, and, it is
to bo hoped with the same result. Straw.--
will always show the direction of the
wind, and while we are no alarmist, we
do warn the Democracy cf Georgia of
how the case stands. For the Independ
ents to triumph is to relegate our good
old State back to a condition little belter
than when Bullock held sway. For them
to get into power would bo to place Fel
ton and his master in the Senate. For
them to win tho fight would be to take
soch a step backward as would cau6e the
blush ofsbame to mantle tho cheek of
every true son of Georgia. God forbid
so heavy a oalamity should ever befall

“There are at least 40,000 old Whigs and
their tleececdauta in this titato now acting

of having their bn^inees destroy od and fami

Svr.utons of a Diseased Liver.
T)AIX in the right side, under tho
1 edge of the ribs, increases on pres
sure; sometimes the pain is in the left
side; the pntient is rarely able to lie
on the left side; sometimes the pain
is felt under the shoulder blade, and
it frequently extends to the top of the
shoulder, and is sometimes mistaken
for rheumatism in the arm. The stom
ach is affected with loss of appetite
and sickness; the bowels in general
are costive, sometimes alternative with
lux; the bead is troubled with pain,
accompanied with a dull, heavy sen
sation in the back part. There is gen
erally a considerable loss of memory,
accompanied with a painful sensation
of having left undone something which
ought to have been done. A slight,
dry cough is sometimes an attendant.
The patient complains of weariness
and debility; he is easily startled, his
feet are cold or burning, and he com
plains of a prickly sensation of the
skin; his spirits are low; and although
he is satisfied that exercise would be
beneficial to him, yet he can scarcely
summon tip fortitude enough to try it.
In fact, he distrusts every remedy.
Several of the above symptoms attend
the disease, but cases' have occurred
where few of them existed, yet exam
ination of the body, after death, has
shown tbe liver to have been exten
sively deranged.
AGUE AND FEVER.
Dr. C. McLane’s Livf.r Pills, in
cases of Ague and Fever, when
taken with Quinine, are productive of
the most happy results. No better
cathartic can be used, preparatory to,
or after taking Quinine. We would
advise all who are afflicted with this
disease to give them a fair trial.
For all bilious derangements, and
as a simple purgative, they are un
equaled.
BEWARE OF IMITATIONS.
The genuine are never sugar coated.
Every box has a red wax seal on the
lid, with the impression Dr. McLane’s
Liver Pills.
The genuine McLane’s Livf.r Pills
bear the signatures of C. McLane and
Fleming Bros, on the wrappers.
Insist upon having the genuine Dr.
C. McLane’s Liver Pills, prepared by
Fleming Bros., of Pittsburgh, Pa., the
market being full of imitations of the
name JHcLaue, spelled differently but
same pronunciation. ’

Ague Cure
Is a purely vegetable bitter and powerful
tonic, and is warranted a speedy and cer
tain cure for Fever and Ague, Chills
a n«l Fever, Intermittent or Chill
Fever. Remittent Fever, Dumb Ague,
Periodical or BUfous Fever, and all
malarial disorders. In miasmatic dis
tricts, the rapid pulse, coated tongue,
thirst, lassitude, loss of appetite, pain in
the back and loins, aud coldness of tho
spine and extremities, are only premoni
tions of severer symptoms which termin
ate in the ague paroxysm, succeeded by
high fever aiul profuse perspiration.
It is a startling fact, that quinine, ar
senic, and other poisonous minerals form
the basis of most of the ” Fever and Aguo
Preparations.” “Specifics,” “Syrups.”
and “ Tonics,” in tho market. The prop,
arations made from these mineral poisons,
although they are palatable, and limy
break the chill, do not cure, but leave the
malarial and their own drug poison j \
tho system, producing quinism, dizziness
ringing in the ears, headache, vertigo, amf.
other disorders more formidable than
the disease tliev were intended to cure.
Avfii's Ar.t R Cure thoroughly eradicates
these noxious poisons from Hie system,
and always cures the severest cases. _ It
contains no quinine, mineral, or any thing
tlmt could injure tho most delicate pa
tient; and its crowning excellence, abovo
its certainty to cure, is that it leaves tho
system as freo from disease as before tho
attack.
For Liver Complaints, Ayer’s Ague
Cube, bv direct action on the liver and
biliary apparatus, drives out the poisons
which produce these complaints, and
stimulates the system to a vigorous,
healthy condition.
We warrant it when taken according
to directions.
