An Expressive Poem.
(Freni the New Haven Register.)
The following lines were sent to us by
John B. Anderson, the Wallingford mur
derer, who is awaiting execution in the
oounty jail, wiih a request that they be
published, “for,” says the writer, “they hit
my case exactly.”
NOBODY’S DOG.
BY IjOIiO.
Being the, sad tale of a much-abused dog.
Translated from the Kanine.
1 am sitting alone—on the cold, cold stones
Of the pavement, and watching the
passers by;
I am thinking of kennels and nice fat
bones—
Of kennels and bones—but neither have I,
And I yelp out a curse on the luck,
And I yelp out a curse on the log
On which I floated away from my home,
Out in the world, to be nobody’s dog.
Once ’pon a time I was somebody’s pet,
I first opened my eyes to the light of the
day
In a kennel so snug—l remember it yet—
Twas out in a country long miles away,
And a light-hearted puppy was I,
’Till I got on that confounded log,
And floated and drifted out into the world—
Out into the world, to be nobody’s dog.
GEORGIA GENERAL NEWS.
H. M. Turner sends an article to the
Savannah News, in which he says: “I
believe that the whites of this country
will ultimately have to do as the
Egyptians did—lend us their ear-rings,
linger rings, and other precious orna
ments and jewels, or, in other words,
give us aid to return to our fatherland
aud build up a negro nationality, that
we may teach our brethren there the
principles of civil government and the
religion of our Lord aud Savior Jesus
Christ. Could we get possession of
Fernando Po, St. Thomas’ Island, or
some of those healthy and salubrious
islands in the Gulf of Guinea, we could
carry up the Niger river enough of
moral, religious and intellectual en
lightenment to redeem Africa in a
hundred years. You may ask why I
have not gone ? My reply is, one, two
or three is not sufficient; we want the
foundation of a colony. Give me a few
ships, a lew years of subsistence, and
some old arms to protect ourselves,
and I will raise the men, and in live
years from to-day I will show you a
negro nationality somewhere on the
continent of Africa that will be an ever
lasting monument of honor to the
whites ol this country, and result in
the salvation of thousands of benighted
Africans. I have already written to
three millionaires asking them to aid
me with means to start the work, but
up to this time they have not respond
ed. But it will be done sooner or later.”
The Savannah News notes the clear
ance from that port on Wednesday of
thp German steamship Baltimore, with
4,370 bales of cottotj.
It is estimated by good judges, says
the La Grange Reporter, that the cotton
crop of Troup county the present year
wiil be about 10,000 bales. If these
average £SO each in price, which we
think is a fair allowance, they will
briug a sum total of £500,000. There
are in Troup county about 18,000 in
habitants to be fed. If each one should
consume the ordinary plantation ra
tions of thirteen bushels of corn and
one hundred and eighty-two pounds of
meat, about £4O, per annum, it will
amount to §720,000, about §220,000
more than the cotton crop will bring.—
The cotton crop is our only source ot
income. The corn and other grain will
hardly be more than enough to feed
the mules, horses, cattle, hogs and
dogs in the eouuty. Where will the
lacking §220,000 worth of supplies
come from ? Our columns are open to
any who will attempt to answer these
very serious questions.
The Quitman Reporter says Mr. Coyne
McNeil, of that place, has shipped from
that depot, since the Ist day of last
June, 667 barrels of rosin, and 148 bar
rels of spirits of turpentine, the former
netting in Savannah about §5.50 per
barrel, and the latter about §9.75 per
barrel, which will make something
over £5,000. This was produced by the
labor of less than ten men.
The grand jury of Fulton county
have opened their semi-annual bat
teries on the Atlanta gamblers. Twen
ty-six true bills against well known
citizens for gaming and keeping a gam
ing table, have already been found.
Atlanta Constitution: On yesterday
150 bales of cotton were burned on the
Air Line Railroad, between Charlotte
and Greenville. It was through cotton
from Atlanta to New York, and was
l a led on flat cars. The fire originated
from a spark from the engine, and the
destruction of the 150 bales was almost
complete. The flooring of the flats was
burned, but the running works were not
materially damaged.— Charlotte Observ
er, 14 Ih. 'We learn that only 109 bales
were destroyed by fire. The cotton be
longed to S. M. Inman, and the Air
Line Railroad, we learn, has settled for
the cotton.
Dalton Citizen: The criminal docket
is a terrible “bore,” an infinite nuisance
and a heavy expense to our county.
This class of cases usually sound, “the
State vs." —some colored “man and
brother”—are generally insignificant,
and are usually profitless to attorneys,
court officers and the county. In nine
cases out of ten these odorous essen
ces of “Civil Rights” are guilty of the
crimes of which they are charged, and
we are glad to see our leading lawyers
refusing to “fatigue public attention,”
and help increase the county taxes by
representing them.
Sumter Republican ;*A train of wag
ons about a quarter of a mile long,
loaded wi th cotton, from Marion coun
ty, arrived in our city Thursday after
noon, and unloaded at our warehouses.
Such a sight was never seen in this
place before. It took over one hour to
u uload the wagons.
MOODY.
His Description of an Enthusiast.
D. L. Moody, in his address at Brat
tleboro, Vermont, gave the following
account of Dr. Duff, of Edinburgh :
“There was an old man I wanted to
see when I first went to Europe in 1867.
I was told not to fail to go to Edin
burgh ar and see Dr. Duff at the Assem
bly. I stayed in Edinburgh a week to
get a little of the old man’s fire He
made an appeal for India. He pleaded
for an hour and a half for India, and
at the end of the hour aud a half
fainted away. They took him up and
carried him to the vestibule. When
he reviv.-d he said: ‘I didn’t quite
g<St through ; let me go back and fin
ish.’ They said : ‘lf you go back it
will cost you vour life.’ ‘ Weil,’ he said,
‘ I shall die if I don’t.’ So they car
ried him back. As they passed up the
aisle the people rose, and tears flowed
down every cheek at sight of the old
veteran. lie said to them: ‘Fathers
and mothers of Scotland, is it true that
you have- got no more sons to give to
India? I have spent twenty-five years
of mv life there, and I have come back
to die ; there is plenty of money In the
bank, but your sons are not willing to
go. If a call comes from the Queen to
go there in the army, they are ready.
Is it come to this, that the Lord calls
for recruits for His Kingdom and they
will not go ?’ And turning to the Mod
erator, he said: ‘lf there is no one to
go to India, I will return to them, and
will let them know that there is one old
Scotchman that can die for them if he
can’t live for them.’ My friends, that
is what 1 call enthusiasm.”

Langley Manufacturing Company, and I have found it to work the most satisfactory of
any opening and picking arrangement I have ever seen, we have not weighed a pound
of cotton upon the picker apron since starting, yet we have had a remarkable regularity
of numbers. The staple is not injured by over beating, and it leaves the picker without
being curled or knitted; the seeding and cleaning is very complete. Over forty per
cent, in labor in this department is saved over the old system. One of the greatest con
siderations with this arrangement is its securty against fire.
