Our Visit to Sa van nail.
We visited tlio Forest City lust
week and met a great many of our
old friends; and arc pleased to note
the fact that they are in lino spirits,
and fully aroused to their city’s in
terest. They are determined not on
ly to do their full share of business,
but to increase it to a point beyond
wliat it has ever been carried belorc.
They can do it with all case by put
ting forth their energies and keeping
up to the times, and other places.
There will be better stocks of Dry
Goods, Boots and Shoes, Groceries,
Ac., kept than ever before; and by
live men, who will duplicate any bill
bought in New York or elsewhere.
We want to see Savannah stand
second to no other place, but first in
every respect. Wo bid her God
speed in taking her place at the
head of the list; for in a great meas
ure our prosperity depends upon
her success.
Cotton.
We extract from Di\ Thos. P.
Janes’s reports of tbo condition of
crops tlio following, made up to Au
gust Ist:
There has been a steady failing in
the prospect throughout the month in
Middle, Southwest and East Georgia
and an improvement of 5 percent, in
Southeast Georgia. Ilust is reported
in Early county, and caterpillars in
several counties.
The average prospect for the State
—by sections—is BG.G, against 89 on
Ist July, showing a reduction of 2.4
per cent.; but it must bo born in mind
that Middle and Southwest Georgia
are the largest and chief cotton pro
ducing sections of the Slate, and it
appears that the prospect in each of
these is only SO—a mean recuction of
8 per cent, from Ist July.
The opinion was expressed in the
Juno report, that it was “highly im
probable that nn average crop of cot
ton will be produced this year in
Georgia.” The opinion has boon con
firmed by the reports herein presented,
and as tho drouth still prevails, and
tho close of tho growing and fruiting
is near at hand the indications arc
very strong that not more than throe
fourths of ft crop will be made.
The Quitman Reporter is again
calling tho attention of the people of
Savannah to tho fact that cotton is
being shipped through Savannah to
Now York and other markets more
and more every year. Until last year
nearly all the cotton shipped from
this place went to Savannah and was
sold there. Last year the principal
cotton buyers in all this section, in
cluding Albany, Bainbridge, Thomas
ville, Quitman, Valdosta and Mouti
collo, shipped nearly all (he cotton
they bought through to New York.
The reason assigned was that cotton,
especially low’ grades, could be sold
much more readily in New York than
in Savannah. Wo mention this in
the hope that our friends in Savan
nah will go to work to remedy the
evil. Wo believe • they can do it if
they will try, and we are anxious to
see the remedy applied. Wo want to
seo Savannah the greatest cotton
market in the United States.—South
ern Enlerprize.
Thank you, brother Hansell, for
the above truths. “They are like ap
ples of gold, set in pictures of silver”—
Muttumin Parvo. Wo, like you, want
to see the good people of Savannah
go to work and remedy the evils, and
wo agree with you fully, that they
can, if they will try; aud we believe
they are going to put forth all of
their energies and make Savannah, as
she should be, the best port in the
United States.
The Macon Telegraph in discussing
the present status of the cotton crop
says:
The first bales of this and last year
came in with no material difference
in dales, but they are not reliable in
dications of the forwardness of the
crop. Current idea in this part of |
Georgia lias been that the growing |
crop is at least two weeks behind that
of last year. It doubtless is at least
that much smaller in growth of weed,
and yet the generally dry weather
and hot suns of the summer may have
pushed the fruit to much earlier de
velopment. The bolls so far brought I
to this office ar • small and look pro- ]
maturely opened. As to the general'
forwardness of flic crop, much, of:
course, depends on the weather of
the next few weeks. The whole |
month of July was well calculated to
push the crop forward, and the same I
may be said of so much of August.
Pennsylvania. —A Washington spec
ial to tho New York World says:
“Senator Wallace, of Pennsylva
nia, arrived here last night on privato
business and returned home to-night.
Mr. Wallace says that the only ques
tion of tho political result in the Oc
tober election in that State will be
the size of the Democratic majority.
Tho Republicans aro dispirited
throughout the State and do not ap
pear to be desirous at present of mak
ing much of a campaign. It is
doubtful if tho State Convention
which will bo held September sth in
dorses tho President.
The French press is going through
a period ol suffering, just now, at the
hands of the Govormeut
WASHINGTON LETTER.
Washington, D. 0., Aug. 10,1877.
One effect, not unanticipated, of
having Gcn’l Howard in command of
tho forces engaged in fighting the In
dians, is givon in this morning des
patches. It is stated that tho volun
teers propose to advance with, but
independent of tho regulars.” Gen
eral Howard was not cut out for nn
Indian lighter, and his subordinate
officers, bis enlisted men, and espec
ially tho volunteers, understood it.—
So, evidently, does Chief Joseph.
Between conflicting reports that
our troops on tho Mexican border
have and have not received modified
instructions, it is difficult to say just
what the trouble is. But unquestion,
ably Gen’l Ord's forco is acting ns if
its first orders had been modified.—
Tbo prospect is now that the Diaz
Government will soon bo recognized
by ours, and that protection will be
secured for citizens of the United
States of tho Mexican border.
Some five years ago Major Ben. P.
Runklo, ot the regular army, who
had been a disbursing officer of tho
Frocdmeu’s Bureau, while holding
that rauk was tried on charges of
embezzlement of funds placed in his
hands by tho Bureau for disburse
ment. Much of the opposition to
the Bureau seems to have vented it
self ou Major Ruukle, and he was
hastily convicted, and tho Secretary :
of War hastened to approve the sen
tence, which was that he be cashier
ed, Ac. An informality in the ap
proval of the sentence has given Mu-!
jor 11. an opportunity to bring out in ’
bis own behalf tho proof of inno- ’
cence which the Court Martial did
not givo him a chance to be com
plete. Tho Military Committee of
the Senate and House unanimously
took that view of it, as did Judge Ad
vocate Gen’l Wm. McKee Dunn, an J
accomplished lawyer, and the high
est authority on such subjects in A- 1
merica. Mr. Hayes himself made a
thorough examination of the case,
and has disapproved the findings and
sentence of the Court. This puts j
Major Ruukle in exactly the same po
sition as if no trial had been held.
His gallantry and skill as a volunteer
officer during the war made Major
Ruukle a host of friends, and all of
them will rejoice at his thorough vin
dication.
The first day’s proceedings of the
Convention at Richmond yesterday
were not of a character to please the
admirers of the grand old State of
Virginia. Happily tho confusion
did not interfere, except to cause de
lay, with the regular proceedings of
the convention, a fid we may hope for
calm and reasonable action to-day on
the questions which make this assem
blage so important to tho State and
so interesting to the whole country.
In Maine, I anticipate from the
Republican State Convention to-day
nothing less than a clear definition of
the position of the party as against
that of the administration. Less
than this will seem to be fatal to Mr.
Elaine’s position as head of tho par
ty in the Pine Tree State.
In a few days Mr. Hayes and a
part of his Cabinet go North to at
tend the Bennington celebration.—
Secretary Sherman goes to Ohio to
look after politics. Secretary Sokurz
who is the great Hessian of our mod.
ern politics, will remain here. Ho
could not look with complacency on
the field where an earlier but less for
tunate mercenary was defeated by the
American people. Soon after Mr.
Hayes’ return from the North ho will
go South. He has received innumer
able invitations to visit the various
cities there. He will have a cordial
reception wherever ho may go, from
the Potomac to the Gulf. In doing
what he could to benefit the South,
at the risk of popularity in his own
party, he exhibited qualities not to
be forgotten by those who participat
ed in tho benefit. His reception will
bo far removed from party consider
ations, and for that reason will be all
tho more general and enthusiastic.
The blunder his political friends will
j be likely to make is that they will at-
I tribute to purely personal attentions,
! and to those always shown to high
j position, a political siguilieance they
do not possess.
One of the carpet-bag speculations
in South Carolina just unearthed a
mong many others, was in putting
unnecessary partitions in various
parts of soruo of the public buildings,
at an actual cost of §3O, and collect
ing from tho State $650 caeb. If
bills against the State in other mat
ters were raised in the same propor
tion, and it is already known that in
something they were, tbero ought to
bo some mcau3 by which the State
could protect itself. Tho criminal
I punishment of tho rogues, even if
they have not already returned to
| their homes in other States, and thus
! made punishment impossible, would
be scant comfort for the tax-payor
ivho sees his property sold for taxes
to pay such State debts.

Centralized Power.
Jin. Eiutoh: —I have watched with
somo degree of interest during tho
last thirty years the grand political
object of tbo aristocracy, or monied
power of this country which has been
gradually to subvert tho present form
of government and centralize its
power until the States wore eventual
ly, though almost perceptibly divest
ed of their sovereignty. Tlio effect
of tho late civil war acted to a certain
oxtout as a cloak to cover their iniqui
ty which had it not been for their in
compotoucy and cupidity might have
been accomplished, but tho star of
destiny which would not set below
the horizon of their boundless ambi
tion still circles in its orbit shedding
rays ot light and prospective happi
ness through its vast plane, and thus
wo see that while a crushing blow
has been aimed at the States, its
force has to their consternation mid
amazement recoiled upon themselves
and threaten not only their present
power but utter distinction.
Russia is without doubt, outside of
JLdiometism tlio most despotic pow
er known in Europe; its peoples rang
ing from civilized to somi-barbavous;
but in modern times the imperialism
and despotism exercised over that na
tion was more tolerable than tho tyr
anny which for sixteen years lias ex
isted iu our extensive portion of this
vast Republic, and this too under a
military President; who with tho ar
my under liis control, and a number
of sycophants to mislead, exercised a
power foreign to the institutions of
tho country, and degrading to a free
government, and, presented a bur
lesque upon civilization which no oth-
! or country, kingdom, or empire can
produce. History it is said repeats
itself, which is a fact beyond the pow
|er of contradiction; and we have
t seen that wherevftr the military pos
! sessed sway over civil power, a rapid
1 decline, and eventual destruction of
! that nation has been tho result.
Surely the people of these United
Statos have had within the last twen
ty years sufficient of military Presi
dents and military power; a stand
ing army in time of peace iu a coun-,
try like this is a burlesque upon her
civilization and institutions. Ciucin
natus left the plow and preserved his
country; his integrity being above
all the honors which his grateful
countrymen were desirous to bestow;
but in this enlightened aud Christian
age and country, fame aud cupidity
: become twin associates, showing a de
! generacy of human nature which no
| other country or nation in the pres
[ ent age would be eager to manifest to
the world; while here it is exhibited
' with effrontery which undisputed
| power alone can give, and a demoral
' ized people submit to.
It is to be hoped that the last mili
tary President has reigned at the
1 White House, and that the destiny
| of this great country will never again
jbo submitted to military despotism.
I Let the militia of the various States
jbe organized, equipped, and drilled;
i continue our military and naval
| schools; we can dispense with the
j cost and pageantry of a standing av
j my, without which we can control in
ternal discord and always be prepar
ed for foreign invasion or war.
As previously alluded to, the States
of this Union have been attacked, and
their sovereignty undermined by the
Republican party, whose object has
been their own
against the people’s interest, that
they might raise disgust at a form of
government which has existed for a
century, and under which the people
had advanced in prosperity beyond
the most favored nations of modern
days, or by-gono antiquity. We have
seen that ambition in all instances
when carried beyond discretion leads
its blind votaries to destruction; nor
has it failed in this instance, for our
Republican institutions are as firm at
this present as thev were before the
commencement of the war; whilst
eternal infamy and disgrace cover
those whose evil machinations against
the institutions of their country have
so providentially and so signally fail
ed. But it must be borne in mind
that although the country is now free
from military power and despotism,
wo have powerful foes in the enemy’s
camp, whose every energy will be us
ed to retrieve their lost position
which as they have nothing to lose
savo their ill-gotten wealth they haz
ard little to obtain much, and the
best interests of the country would
bo willingly sacaificed to their baso
ends.
In the present state of affairs and
to prevent a recurrence of the past,
and while the sovereignty of the
States reinaiu, it will bo well for the
pooplo to carefully review tho past,
and in their sovereign power insti
tute some scheme by which the Con
gressional power may bo kept within
constitutional bonds. Let tho Gov
ernor of each State represent the
people of his State, and meet annual
ly at a time and place to be fixed as
their wisdom may direct. Let them
discuss the action of Congress as
touching upon tho rights of any
State, or tho people at large, and let
them take action upon the same as
the wisdom of their decision or tho
necessity of the case demands, the
same to bo indorsed and sustained
by tho pcoplo; but iu no instance
should those representatives of local
government take any action, only
when a State’s rights are attacked
and the liberties of the pooplo in
fringed upon, that tlio interest and
liberties of any one State shall be as
zealously protected, as if tbo interests
of the whole depended thereon.
Each State to defray tho expenses of
jits Representative while acting in
'these premises. Having boon a suf
ferer iu the past I may be excused
for having an eye to tlio future; and I
merely make a suggestion that abler
beads than my own may be turned
to this subject which I deem a mat
ter needing our utmost euro and vig
ilance to protect, if wo would retain
our present form of government.
At the same time I would also im
press upon tbo minds of the people
that no form of government can in
sure prosperity and peaco to a Na
tion while corruption reigns, and the
interest of the rulers predominate
over that of the people.

Woman’s Best Friend. To ivlieve the
aching heart of woman and bring joy ay bore
sovroAv reigned supremo, is a mission before
which the smiles of kings dwindle into
utter insignificance. To do do tiiis is the
peculiar province of Dr. J. Bnulfield's Fe
male Regulator, which from the numberless
j cures it has accomplished, is appropriately
'styled “Woman’s Best Friend.” The dis
tressing complaint known as the “whites,”
and the various irregularities of the womb,
i to which woman is subject, disappear like
i magic before a single bottle of this wonder-
I fnl compound. It is prepared by L. 11.
