To any person sending ns six «nb
cribersaad the money, the paper will

The Savannah Morning News will
please accept our thanks for a copy
of their calendar for 1881, and for the
postal guide. By-the-way,. the News
is one of the best and most enterpris
ing daily papers In the South.
A colorexl man in Greene county
who was adjudged a lunatic, was car
ried to jail because therein no room
for him at the asylum. It is a burn
ing shame that our Legislatures have
not made sufficient provision for these
unfortunates.
Last Tuesday, John Sherman was
nominated, by acclamation, by the
Republicans of the Ohio Legislature
for United States Senator. General
Joseph Hawley was also nominated
in Connecticut. General Miller was
elected in California, and Mr. Fair in
Nevada.
Mr. R. A. Hemphill has bought an
interest in the Atlanta Constitution,
and will hereafter act as its book
keeper and assistant business man
ager. ‘Bob,’ we will come down as
soon as possible to sec if you are
“looking just as you did in the same
place years ago.”
The latest official statement of the.
losses of the civil war puts the loss
of life in the Confederate armies at
200,000, and in the Federal ranks at
327,184. The Confederate loss is still
only approximate, but it is believed
that Joss has been defin
itely ascertained.
The New Orleans Times says “Mr.
fipccr, Senator Brown and other lib
eral Southern leaders, are doing a
great deal to advance the * New
'South,’ but the establishment of
manufactories would do more for it
in one year than they will be able to
accomplish in ten years.” Correct.

From every part of the State come
up expressions of thankfulness, be
cause there arc to be no more elec
tions until October, 1882. A good
many people would be glad if the
date of the next elections was Octo
ber, 1892.—Constitution. Bad idea;
how would editors manage to get
rations ?
The Post-Appeal says another cot
ton factory will soon be started in
Atlanta. Several Cincinnati capital
ists have subscribed largely, and we
are informed that all the stock has
already been taken. The factory will,
be built at an early day. The spring
ing up of these enterprises in Georgia
shows that our Slate, and indeed the
South generally, is entering upon a
career of industrial prosperity, such
as she never dreamed of.

Dr. Talmage, the great divine, says:
“Until a man can read the Declara
tion of American Independence, the
Constitution of the United States, the
first chapter of Genesis, and write a
petition for citizenship with his own
hand, and calculate how much is the
interest of the United States, and tell
the. difference between a republic, a
limited monarchy and a despotism,
he is rot fit to vote at any poll be
tween Key West and Alaska.” This
would leave us out, you be.t.

The Republican papers are still
harping on the large per centage of
increase of population of the South
ern States, as shown by the present
census,ns compared with the increase
in the decade between 1860 and 1870.
The South springs forward from 7J to
31J per centum, while the Western
•Suites drop from 75 to 61 per centum.
The South is now the section of the
Union most rapidly increasing in
population, with the exception of the
extreme West, such as Nebraska,
Kansas and Colorado.

Senator M. C. Butler is reported ns
talking as follows to a newspaper cor
respondent: “I tell you sir,” said he,
“it is no longer a question of polities
with us. We simply have one proposi
tion staring us in the face, ami it is
well that the people of the North
should understand it. Wc are re
solved that the illiterate lower classes
ot our State shall not rule. We have
had all the experiments in that direc
tion that we propose to have, and we
intend to use every means, fair or
otherwise, to prevent such rule.”
The Republican papers are general
ly surprised that a State Senator elect
should acknowledge that he paid out
money to aid in his election, and that
he should decline to take the iron
clad oath declaring that he did not
expend any money in aid of his elec
tion. Most of the Senators use money
in the elections, and take the oath
nlso. But Mr. E. C. Cox, a Demo
crat, from Luzerne county, Pennsyl
vania, declined to take the oath, and
gave up his seat in the Senate, openly
avowing that he did use money. A
tare ease of political conscience, aiftl
Mr. Cox should Lave due credit.
NORTH AND SOUTH IN CONGRESS.
The Boston Advertiser has been
figuring out the results as they would
be distributed among the several
States, of a Congressional apportion
ment under the present census, and
sums up as follows:
“The number 180,000 would only
further take away three Northern
and four Southern members, the los
ing States being Connecticut, Florida,
Illinois, New York, Virginia, West
Virginia and Wisconsin. But the
quota 190,000 would further take
away nine Northern and only six
Southern members, leaving 164 to
the North and 97 to the South. That i
is to say, if the South i willing to
lose nine of its present members, it
can deprive the North of twenty
three of its members. It can do still
better by giving up three more and
taking ten from the North by fixing
the quota at 200,000. If that were
done, the changes from the present*
representation would be as follows:
In the North the losses would be—
Maine two, New Hampshire one,
Vermont one, Massachusetts two,
Rhode Island one, Connecticut one,
New York eight, New Jersey one,
Pennsylvania six, Ohio four, Indiana
three, Michigan one, Illinois four.
Wisconsin one, lowa one. Minnesota
and Nebraska would gain one each,
and Kansas two. In the South the
losing States would be: Georgia one,
Florida one, Alabama two, Kentucky
two, Louisiana one, Maryland one,
Missouri two, North Carolina one,
Tennessee two, Virginia one. Texas
would gain two. Under such an ap
portionment, the majority of North
ern members would be but sixty,
instead of eighty-one, as at present,
and yet the membership of the House
would be reduced by only forty-five.”

The Railway Age shows that not
less than 7,207 miles of new track
were laid during the past twelve
months on at least 234 different lines.
These figures are far greater than
those for any year since 1871, ami the
mileage is more than 54 per centum
greater than that built in 1879. No
doubt the final figures will increase it
to at least 7,500 miles, which is a
greater mileage than has been con
structed in any previous year tn the
United States, or, of course, in any
other country. The table shows that
the work of construction has b«en
prosecuted in forty-t woof the States
and territories, the only State not in
cluded in the list being Mississippi,
and the only territories not given be
ing Idaho, Wyoming, Indian Terri
tory—from which railways, eager to
enter, are still forcibly kept out—and
ice-bound Alaska, which is at present
beyond the reach even of the enter
prising railway builder. Work is now
actively in progress in both Idaho
and Wyoming, and another year will
see large additions ir. jhese territo
ries also, while the Indian country
will doubtless be opened to scvrral
new enterprises.
For the last few days all sortsbtf
rumors have been in circulation about
the Marshalship. One day it is said
that Marshal Fitzsimmons is to be
bounced, and then it is positively as
serted that no change will ba made.
It is said that Senators Brown ami
Hill stand by the present incumbent,
and it is rumored that they have
abandoned him. The knowing ones
say that Mr. 11. I. Kimball will be
tendered the Marshalship, and others
say that he does not want it. Some
thing definite will turn up in a day or
two. The Post-Appeal has positive
information from headquarters to the
effect that no move will be made in
this matter until Marshal Fitzsim
mons has been heard in answer to
the charges against him, and not then
if matters turn out all right. In the
event, however, of an unfavorable
decision, Mr. 11. I. Kimball has the
inside track.— Atlanta Post-Appeal.
A Washington special to the New
York Post says: “The Democrats
are seriously alarmed “st they shall
fail of a working majority by reason
of the persistent neglect of duty by
! some of their Representatives. Their
leaders are determined to pas the
Morgan electoral count joint resolu
tion, and to do this they must have
the vote of almost every member of
their party. The screws are to be
applied, and negligent members are
to be sharply dealt with. The Re.
publicans say flatly that they will
not let the resolution pass, ami it is
altogether likely that the present lull
and ‘era of good feeling’ will be suc
ceeded by a bitter and exciting politi
cal controversy. In that case an extra
session is almost unavoidable.”
Congress is muting along slowly.
But little of interest has been done
so far. The House committee on
education has agreed to favorably
report the Burnside educational bill,
by which the money derived from the
patent office and the sale of public
lauds is devoted to educational pur
poses in the different Slates and the
Territories. Mr. Speer introduced a
hill to exempt from duty machinery
for the u.ai.ufacturc of cotton goods.
STRINGENT POLL TAX LAW.
Louisiana has a sort of cast-iron
poll tax law. Collectors have power
to seize and sell the property of delin
quents, and employers are responsible
for the payment of the poll tax of all
their employes, being authorized to
deduct the same from wages due.
The New Orleans Times, a few days
ago, paid the poll tax of forty-four of
its eighty employes. Speaking of the
operations of this law, the Times
says:
“The poll tax law of this State, as
now enforced, accomplishes the won
derful feat of collecting this tax with
out disfranchising any citizens. For
many years past the States have been
endeavoring to do this, but have hith
erto found no other mode of doing it
except by making a payment of the
tax a prerequisite to voting. This is
the law in Massachusetts, Virginia
and Georgia; and while it yields a
'large revenue, it has many disastrous
effects, reduces the vote of the State
one-half and creates bribery at elec
tions—the cost of a vote being the
payment of a man’s poll tax. The
former law in this State was even
worse, since it collected this lax only
from citizens owning real estate, and
not from those from whom it was in
tended to come—citizens paying no
taxes at all. The law at present
solves the dilemma —nobody is dis
franchised, yet everybody is com
pelled to pay up.”
The Boston Express has the follow
ing high compliment to pay to the
new Swiss immigrants who have al
ready arrived at Mount Airy, on the
Atlanta and Charlotte Air Line Rail
way, where a colony was started two
years ago, and is constantly growing:
“Immigration to Georgia from Swit
zerland is among the events of the
early future. At least one hundred
Swiss, chiefly farmers, and with some
little means, are shortly to start for
the South. About 3,000 acres of land
have been secured for them, which
they are expected to cultivate in the
best manner. In the mean time the
colored population of this State and
some others are making their exodus
to the Northwest. The spectacle is
rather extraordinary—a distant col
ony, among the best and most thrifty
people on the face of the earth, tire
seeking a favored spot to cultivate,
while those born upon the soil are
seeking acres and homes elsewhere.
We trust that the Swiss people will
be cordially welcomed, and that their
enterprise may be a success.

The New Orleans custom house
the largest in the woyld, yas begun
in 1848, has cost S 1,180,000, and is not
done yet. The massive walls are of
Quincy granite, and the interior is
finished in marble; it has one hun
dred rooms, with nearly fifty miles of
pipes of all kinds, and is supplied
with water from four tanks in the
attic, each holding thirty-live thou
sand gallons. The height of the
structure, from pavement to cornice,
is eighty feet, but the plan for its
completion contemplates a mansard
roof, which will with the added story,
make the general elevation ninety
seven feet. The proposed dome,
which is to be square in form, will
be fifty-nine by forty-nine feet on the
sides, with a height of forty-one feet;
so that the total outside elevation to
' the top of the lantern on (he dome
' will be one hundred and eighty-seven
feet.

Gov. Gray, in his annual message
i to the Legislature ot Indiana, says :
“In my judgment the republic cannot
I live long in the atmosphere which
i now surrounds the ballot box.—
Moneyed corporations, to secure
' favorable legislation for themselves,
are taking an active patt in elections
jby furnishing large stints of money
to corrupt the voter and purchase
special privileges from the govern*
ment. If money can control the
decision a! the ballot box, it will not
be long until it can control its exist
ence.”

There are 43,(8’0 p'ostoffices in the
country, and the employes of the
postoffice department alone foot up
60,479 persons. Is it any wonder that
the postmaster figures so conspicu
ously in the Presidential campaigns?
Last year the postofficc expenditures
exceeded the receipts by 33.5V0.U00.
Civil service reform might reduce
this shortage.
FIRE, CALAMITY, RUIN!
At day break Sunday morning, the
2nd of January, the roofs of houses
and the whole face of the earth being
covered with snow, six or eight inches
deep, the Baptist Banner office was
discovered on fire, and in one hour’s
time the building, three presses, two
large composing stones, type and all
the. machinery and fixtures were con
sumed or rendered worthless. The
books, consisting of four ledgers, one
for each year of the Banner’s exist
ence, mailing books for the past year,
: and memoranda of job work and ad
: vertisiug, shared the common destruc
i lion. The files of letters and my
I private library of books, all were
(consumed by the devouring flame!
, The Banner bad 2,300 subscribers,
'and about 525 post offices on the
books. The bulk of these offices are
in Georgia, but some in Florida,
South Carolina, North Carolina, Vir
ginia. Tennessee, Kentucky, Texas,
Arkansas, Louisiana and Alabama.
There are due on the books several
thousand dollars, and I can see no
better way to reach our subscribers
than to ask exchanges and brethren
of the press in Georgia to publish
this card. Will all our brethren and
friends who arc in arrears please send
in their dues immediately, and thus
enable us to meet demands incurred
in furnishing them a religious paper,
and also enable us to resume publica
tion of the Banner as soon as possi
ble. The Banner has been endorsed
by and adopted as the organ of quite
a number of Associations, represent
ing many thousands of Baptists, espe
cially in all Northeast Georgia. The
whole private loss is not only crush
ing to me and Major Blackstock, my
partner in business, but unless breth
ren who owe us and others come to
the rescue, so as to enable us to
resume, it will prove a calamity to
denominational enterprisesand well
' being of thousands of Baptists.

THE ELECTIONS OVER.
‘Seneca.’ in the Dahlonega Signal,
| says: “The elections are all over now
| for the present, and the people will
(have some quiet and time for sober
| reflection. We should review our past
and strive in future to correct in our
morals whatever is wrong, as well as
correct and amend whatever is wrong
in our social, civil and political sys
tems. In the past four months we
have had four general elections in
Georgia ; one for Governor and mem
bers of the Legislature ; one Tor Pre
sident, etc.; one for justices of the
peace and constables, and one for
county officers. At each one of these
elections 200.000 people have lost
one days’work, worth at least 8100,-
000. making $400,000. The expense
of holding these elections and mak
ing returns aggregate about 830,(00.
The value of liquors consumed is
about 5200.000. Making in all 5630,
000 which Georgia has expended in
' the last four months on elections
'over half million of dollars.
Well, how can this be amended? I
(answer. This enormous expense and
I loss of time can be reduced at least
i one-half by our Legislature at its
I next session by passing a simple law,
I very short, putting the election for
Governor, State officers and members
of the Legislature, on the same day
as for members of Congress, etc., in
i the same act provide that justices aud
constables throughout the State shall
be elected on the same day a* county
officers are elected. Thus you would
only have two elections, iuste id of
tour, as it now stands, and thus you
i would save much time, labor and
: money, and avoid a vast amount of
demoralization. Will not Georgia’s
law makers take hold of this matter.”
A tobacco factory is to be started
lat Mt. Airy, and about one hundred
s acres of tobacco will be planted in
| that vicinity this spring. The plan
( ter and the manufacturer, we believe,
I will make more from this weed than
!can be made front cotton.
A cotton mill in At mta is com
( pelled to run day and night in order
l to meet the demands of its custom
ers. Who was it that said the South
i could not manufacture cotton goods?
• —Boston Herald.
A North Carolinian shows samples
(of paper made from cotton stalks.
He says the cotton stalk has from
fifteen to twenty per cent, more fiber
than the ground wood now used.
It is believed that Senator Mahone.
of 'Virginia, will vote with the Repub
licans. He is an “Independent”
( Democrat.
A Hebrew exodus from Germany
to the United States has begun, and
will doubtless swell to large propor
tions.
Cornelius Willingham has charge
of the Cartersville Express. We wish
you success, “old boy.”
Croly, who predicted the last panic,
now predicts another for this year.
It is thought that Blaine will be the
M arwkk of Garfield's administration.
“THEY NEED ROADS.”
We notice that a bill has been intro
duced into the Georgia Legislature to
make a free road over the Blue Ridge.
Wc hope there is no constitutional
difficulty in the way. A good road
over the Blue Ridge is an absolute
necessity. The comities north of the :
Blue Ridge arc entitled to it. We I
have tried one of the most traveled i
of these roads, and know what it is.!
As things are. the counties north of
the Ridge are further off than Now
York. The roads are so execrable
that they almost prohibit business.
There can be no marked develop-;
ment in these counties until better (
public roads are provided—and they
are not able to build them.
Georgia has never done much for
these counties except collect taxes.
If the State ever did wisely to help
any part of her territory, she should I
help these counties. We make no i
question that If the State would build
half a dozen first-class wagon roads
across the Blue Ridge, that the in
crease of taxes paid to the State
would, in a few years, more than
compensate for the outlay. There
are many and abundant natural re
sources In the comities beyond the
Ridge that would be developed rapid
ly, if there were only access to the
centres of trade. It is about
the load to get a thousand pounds of
any sort of produce across Cooper’s
Gap. Half an average load is a heavy
pull over these reals, and progress is
so slow that the profits are used up
in the effort to reach a market. These
difficulties are so great that they take
from the people the hope of success.
If a man produces twice what is
necessary to support his family, what
profit is there If It consumes the value
of his surplus to get it to market ?
Years ago we expressed the opinion
that the bad roads of the mountains
account for the illicit distilleries that
drive their perilous trade in so many
of these coves and hiding places.—
Last September a revenue agent of
much experience, said this to us, (he
was then getting ready for a ‘raid,’)
! “Ibis illicit distilling will never cease
till this country has better roads.”
Returning from our little preaching
I excursion into Fannin county, last
fall, a Christian woman of much cul
ture and wisdom asked us : “What
do thev most neejl, churches or school
houses? We answered, “Neither;
roads.”—Wesleyan Christian Advo

Dr. J. C. Ayer & Co., of Lowell,
( Mass., have favored us with a com
plete edition of their almanacs for
1881. neatly bound in one volume.
Turning to its contents we find our
selves prepared to discuss the weather
with our daily callers in English, Ger
man. Norwegian, Swedish. Spanish.
French, Portuguese aud Bohemian.
We have as yet only examined the
English version, and to it we are
pleased to give our endorsement.—
Though this almanac has long been
recognized as a standard American
work, vet it makes its advent each
year with all the vigor and freshness
( of a first appearance, and is received
with a hearty welcome by millions,
from the rising to the setting sun
, We commend it to our readers as a
( work replete with instructive and
valuable information.
