©je Constitiitionalist .A.TXG-TJST.A., Tuesday Morning, October 19, 1875. 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.” TAKE SIMMONS’ LIVER REGULATOR For all diseases of the Liver, Stomach and Spleen.

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.
