0% Constitutionalist AUGUSTA, GKA..: Tuesday Morning, December 14, 1875. Boss Tweed’s Last Message. I’m afloat, I ra afloat on the wild, raging: sea, And there ain’t any use of ycur looking for me. Some day I may trouble myself to tell why I couldn’t stay longer to bid you good bye. Deal gently with Dunham—remember the line, It is human to err, to forgive is divine. I convinced him by arts which I have at command That a bird in the bush is worth two in the hand. Be kind, too, to Justice—that blindfolded miss; - Don’t blame that poor girl for a trifle like this; She always, I think, does the best that she can, And aiu’t up to the tricks of a clever old man. God bless my dear country, and cherish her fame, Though I quit her for good, yet I love her the same. For she taught me that Freedom was every man’s right. And that’s what 1 thought when I bade her “Good night.” GkOBGITOENERAt NEWS. Ooly three deaths ia Macon last week. '' • • • l Charles Herbst has been appointed librarian of the Macon library. Dr. J. H. Bryans has succeeded Mr. H. M. Edge in the management of the Indian Springs Echo. Bishop Beckwith has left Georgia for New York, and will be gone three weeks. Caustv sickness of his family. Rome Courier : “It is strange how hard it is for a Radical to give up an office. They always have to be kicke3 out, or else steal something and run away.” A four line sermon for South Carolina. The Macon Telegraph, in speaking of the stopping of cock flghtiug by Mayor Estes, says: “ Good for Mayor Estes. The inhumanity ought to be prohibited by law.” The steam saw-mill of L. P. Ander son, in Brunswick, was burned up re cently. Loss, §15,000; no insurance. It was caused by a tramp through carelessness. The proposition to reduce the num ber of county officers, and otherwise to diminish the expenses of the county ad ministration in Georgia, is receiving the hearty approval of the press, grand jurors, etc. And still they turn up. The Consti tution of Atlanta says : “Col. John M. Harwell lays on our table a turnip weighing 1% pounds, raised by Hon. Jnlius P. Clements of Tuunell Hill. John raised it with a lever.” In voting for Trial Justice in the 1234th district (Atlanta), which occur red on Saturday last, R. S. Walter, the Democrat, received 519 votes out of 626 polled. A large number of colored men voted with the Democrats. J. F. Kibbee has resigned the posi tion of General Ticket Agent on the Macon and Brunswick Hoad, and will be succeeded by Joseph M. Edwards, late road master of the Macon and Au gusta Road. Macon Telegraph : Business has been remarkably dull, the police being una ble to gather up anything of considera tion. The people are on their good behavior, which is probable due to a general impecuniosity of which every body is complaining. The cotton receipts to Friday in Co lumbus, were thirty thousand one hun dred and ninety-two, against thirty eight thousand six hundred and fifty seven bales same date last year, show ing a decrease of eight thousavd four hundred and sixty-five. Hon. George H. Pendleton, of Ohio, with his family, was ia Atlanta on Saturday. It is his first trip through our sunny laud, and he says that it is his purpose to see as many representa tive people and places as possible, in order that he may know us as well from personal observation as he’ does in our progress and fame. Atlanta Herald: A large number of compressed bales of cotton is to pass over the Georgia Railroad now in a few days, destined direct for Europe. A large number of bales has just come up the West Point Railroad, to be shipped the same way. The two cotton presses are doing well, and are a great benefit to Atlanta. The cotton which now comes here, is compressed, and then shipped direct to Europe. Anew route to Florida, call ed the Magnolia Route, via Au gusta, Yemassee aud Savaunah to Jacksonville, has just been estab lished througti the energetic and en terprising Superintendent of the Geor gia Railroad, Ooi. S. K. Johnson, who seems to have got anew lease of life. The first train will leave here on Mon day at noon. Pullman sleepers run through to Savannah. A train also leaves here at 10:30 at night, and gets to Savaunah at 3:20 next day—two hours and five minutes ahead of any other train.— Atlanta Herald. S. B. Cleghorn was elected Mayor of Columbus on Saturday. He is a native of that city, and prior to 1865, when the freedom of slaves was declared, he was one of the wealthiest young men of Georgia. Since, he has sustained serious reverses of fortune. He lost a leg and several fingers while fightiDg for the Confederacy at the battle of the Wilderness, being at that time a lieutenant. His collegiate education was obtained at the University of Geor gia. In the editorial correspondence (H. H. J.) to the Macon Telegraph, from Savannah, is found the following re marks: “Trade is in a fearfully de pressed state here, and merchants an ticipate much difficulty in meeting their spring paper. As an evidence of the scarcity of money, no less than thirty residences and pieces of property were sold on Tuesday for taxes, and bidden in by the city. Of course the majority of these will be redeemed, but it only shows how hard up are the owners. On the same day Mr. Freeman, the Deputy United States Marshal, informed the writer than two hundred and thirty two lots of land, mostly in the piney woods counties of Southern Georgia, contain ing either or 490 acres each, were knocked off under the hammer at mar shal's sales, for the pitiful sum of one hundred and five dollars.” Under the biographical caption of “The Collapse,” the constitution of At lanta devotes over a column to the af fairs of West, Edwards & Cos., whose acrobatic performances in the commer* cial line has furnished the Atlantese with sensational matter for some days. West and Briscoe the two members of the firm who were jailed by Judge Hopkins, surrendered the books and were released. The liabilities of the firm are not settled, and any figures named are only approximate. So far as the late review is to be relied upon, when a correct balance is struck and proven, it is thought the liabilities will hardly go above a quarter of a million dollars. To offset this the firm can only offer, for a compromise, forty per cent, of the sum represented by their assets and available means. This would reveal a capability upon the firm to raise 8100,000, which may be considered With safety to be the full limit of their The creditors will probably compromise.

Kitson’s Patent Compound Opener Lapper. - o THE cotton is spread on this machine from the bale, and is lap, at the rate of 300 to 40 ) pounds per hour. The laps are then Unlshed on a TWO-BEATER LAPPER, WITH KITSON’S PATFNT EVENER Attahed, and owing to reecent improvements in this Evener, the laps wnon ready for the card, only varies one quarter of an ounce to the yard. The cost of picking by this system is only aboutone mill per pound on the cloth produced, and the picker house is safer from fire than the card room. j&rThere is also a great saving of room and power over the old system. These Machines may be seen at the mills of the Augusta Factory, Langlev Manufac turing Company, and at the best mms at Lowell, Lawrence, Fall River, Manchester Lewiston, Providence, Richmond, Baltimore, etc., etc. The following are a few among many testimonials whicn we nave received: AUGUSTA FACTORY, August A, Ga.

COGIN, Superintendent. o OFFICE LANGLEY MANUFACTURING COMPANY, > Langley, S. 0., April 14, 1873. f The Kitson Machine Company, Lowell, Mass.: Gentlemen. I nrve been running your system of Compound Opener Lappers aid Finisher Lappers, witn Eveners, for more than two ' r earS ba* tat the <> turn MuJ ot too Langley Manufacturing Company, and I have found it to work the mo-4 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 pec cent, in labor in this department is saved over the old system. One of the greatest con siderations with this arrangement is its socur ty against fire. Yours, &c., Al. F. FOSTER, Superintendent. —o OFFICE MASSACHUSETTS COTTON MILLS, I Lowell, February 20, 1874.
