I'iovtli Georgian 2 —V BELLTVJi, GA., JVNE 16, 1881. ; ■ ——— - JOHN T. WILSON, JR., Editor. (J7 - Jo any person sending us sir. subscri bers and THE MONEY, the payer will be lent gratis one year. We want the Co-oper ation of every good citizen of this and adjoin ng Counties to help swell our subscription list. !j you are interested in the welfare of our county, patronize the Georgian, as it la bors incessantly for your adviuwemcul. Boston takes hold of the project of a World s Fair with an enthusiasm which is in striking contrast with New York’s apathy. The date tacitly agreed upon is 1885, and there see ins to be little reason to doubt that the fair will be held. The electric light is certainly going rapidly into use in New York. A few months ago there was not an establish, meat in that city using this light; now there are more than a hundred lighted by electricity. Gas was much slower in making its way among us. Jefferson Davis is reported by the Toronton Mail as saying in that city recently that hi thought the South was morally politically and financially in a far worse condition than before the war, but that this was owing to its present transition state, which he like ned to a forest, healthy in its primeval from, unhealthy while the cleaning up process is being carried on, and healt hier than ever when thoroughly cleared and under cultivation. The Treasury Department is now counting the amount of 5 per cent, bonds received for continuance at 35 per cent, interest, in excess of the limit of §250,000,000 fixed by Secclary Windom. All bonds mailed on the day thn t the notification expired will be received for continuance and this will carry the amount considerably in excess of the limit. Every mail brings more bonds entitled to contin uauce under this rul c, and the total amountcontinued will exceed $260,- 000,000. The trunk line railroad have again reduced the rates for grain to twenty live cent from Chicago to New York and a still further reduction is promis ed. Last year these roads were able to keep the rates at thirty centsall the summer and doagood business in grain This season they have cut rates even ns low as eighteen centsand had little to do. The New Orleans Democrat claims that this is chargeable to the river route and the barge lines. Mahonc is, appearantly, very stub born is adhering to his contention that the nomination for Lieutenant Gover ;md his own vote in the United States Senate are sufficient compensation for Republican support of the Readjuster State ticket, and that the pending Uni ted States Senatorship shall go to a I Readjuster. The Republican State j Committee together for the Culmina tion of a protest against a collection indicates that the Republican mana g rsari epialy determined to have, the Senatorship. It looks very much ns if the stuggle were really between.wo Senatorial aspirants, viz: Riddleber gcr (Readjuster) and Wickham (Re publican). The only poli ies in North Carolina is the liquor question, which promises to have considerable effect in disrup ting parties. Some weeks ago the Prohibition Convention met. It was presided over by the Governor of the State and contained leading member of both parties a fourth of the dele gates being negroes. On' Tuesday the Anti Prohibition Convention com posed of live hundred members n large number of whom were negroes, nu t in Raleigh and was organized by T. N. Cooper, Chairman of the Republican .State Committee. The Republican general oppose the new prohibition bill, while the Democrats are much split up oyer it. Another scandal is dimly loomin'! up, compared with which the star route fraud may bein.-igniticent. Il eenters now about the Custodian’s office. Res ignation arc expected, and 'suspen sion of public opinion ;” but the offi cial implicated say that they acted under order of persons high above them in authority. Senator Davis, of West Virginia, has been for years in sisting that the bookkeeping at the Treasury is contrived to cover up frauds, and believes that there is an enormous deficit in the Treasury. All Investigation have thus far been Ladled by the officials. The reason why the departments have always fought so desperately Io keep the Re publicans in power, why the ringsand star routes, ect., have contributed so heavily to the campaigns, was the dread of the exposure when the Dem ocrats come in. Garfield is dragging some villinuics to light, but the whole truth will come out four years hence whui the Democrats ( m< in. I The Americus Recorder’s Dooly county correspondent writes that “nearly four hundred mortgages have been recorded up to date in the office -of clerk of the Superior Court against parties in this county M<mtezmna heads the. list, having 135; Vienna e • camming next with fifty-seven,” ’ J The Republicans of Amluirst county i Va., have resoluled i hat if there is no f Republicanticket in lieGuhernatorial - contest they will not vote; they wiil | have no part or lot in any party but r i the straightout Republican party, and I- will keep their county organization 1 intact. ' One day last week near Senoia a ' negro man was convt isir g with two * white men about a i nc patch of corn : owned by the negro. Each of the white men offered him twenty-five dollars for patch, which price the negro re i fused to take. During the conversa tion Mr. Heusler walked up.ami upon - being told what had passed, remarked that three tools had met. The negro ' replied; “I think I have as much sense r as you have.” From this a quarrel en sued, which brought on a difficulty, in which the negro received a lick, from 3 which the doctors think he will die. f He had not spoken since he received s the wound. i j .John F.Lewis, the Readjuster nom s inee for Lieutenant Governor of Vir . ginia, was a Senator from that State I under the reconstructed government. > He res ponded to the nomination of - Mahone’s men, announcing himself a I Republican and a Readjuster also. He is a narrow and unscrupulous partis an, and personally unpopular. His nomination mny serve to assist th. Repudiators to some of the Federal spoil; otherwise it would not add much strength to Mahoneism. Le wis is Mahone’s first choice; in fact the en tire ticket is of his selection, the noisy mobo p a convention patiently regis tering his slate at lest. Rome is grately stirred over the drowning of the little boy Williamson whose body still lies it the Ootanaula. The search for it has gone on since ; Monday. The Courier state that a cannon was carried to the river haul: U ear where (he lad was drowned and discharged several times, in hopes by that means Io raise the body. Aftei this failed, the Mountain City .steam fire engine was brought into use, ami ’ by forcing the nozzle to near the bot tom of the river water was forced ; through it with the full force of the full force of the engine. Thiscreated : quite acommotion in the water, but did not have the desired effect. The parch ts are in the greal.es possible: distress, and every possible expedient is be’ng resorted to for the recovery of his body. A diver has been sum-; mond from Mobile. - —————— The Philidelphia Evening News, a stalwart organ, says: “The star route theivesshould bo rigidly prose.eutc'd anti punished',but it is passing strangii that the or.lv person cap ible of detect. I ing their guilt or urging their prosecu ting is a bitter Democrat, who has heretofore shown groat readiness the use his power tosbield Democrats and punish Republican.” It is rather strange that a Democrat like A. M. Gipson, who, it will be remembered was so conspicuous in exposing the Credit Mobilier frauds. should be em ployed by President Garfield to track the star-route theives but the fact only goes to show that he can find no man in his own corrupt party whom he is willing to trust with the business. President Gariiedd has a lively reco lection of Gibson’s enterprise and i sagacity as a proper of official corrup tion. — New Orleans capitalists have just had a meeting to organize a furniture manufactory there on an extensive scale, with a view of supplying not only the city itself with all that kind of wase.s but also the Mississippi Val i ley. The speakeas were quiet en i thusiastie about it and the Picayune has no doubt of its success, inasmuch as all the condition for a protitaldc developcmentof that branch of me chanical industry are ready at baud, j \\ oods of all kinds are cheap and I abundant, atftl prices of coal is as low | aanywhere at the West. The heavi ; csl outlay would be for machinery : 1 but this, with the advantages of river j transportation, it is reasoned, would ■ not be greater than the North ami ;IX cst have to meet. As to a supply of workmen, «•> are told no appreln r i sion is felt. The best cabinet makers ' may be hiredin New Orleans at the present time for sg a day. "In the . markets of Cuba," the I’i. nyu io re minds us, "the most enterprising ot our New Orleans lox manufacturers even now undersell all the box facto ries of Nma Scotia ami New Brims, whk.and these never stop running night or day." Mr. Chase said to a painter who ' wanted to picture the Cabinet as j ap peared when listening to the reading of the cnmr.cipation pre, lamntiou : ‘‘l ineoln’s prociiniatiou,indeed 1 You ought to havescen him w hen he called ■ the Cabinet together to read it to us. I Ifhat ilid he do but read several chap-- ■ ters of Artemus ITard to us so half an 1 li.mr, and at the end of that time lie L -lapped the book together and drew i out his proclamalion and read it! Isn't i that solemn? Paint the Cabinet as- |sembled to discuss the moss momen tous question of the age and the Pres ' ident silting among them reading Ar- I temus Ward’s nonsense I” J 1 I A Washinton di-patch .-ays the star i service investigation commission on 1 I Wednesday dsicovered another in j stance of what they regard as gross , extravagance in the expenditure sot mail service in the Southwest, and i have submitted a recommendation, . 1 which when erried imo effect by an ( order that will shortly be issued by . Postmaster General James, will in .
