Can’t something be done to have a
correct standard of time in our city?
The railroads are about 20 minutes

The Fire at Langley.
The information given in our local
columns yesterday regarding the fire

of the
A Serenade.
We received a handsome serenande
last night from the band of colored mu
sicians of which E. C. Graves is the
leader. The music was very fine in
deed, and the band made a great de
parture from the stereotyped serenade
music which has become so familiar of
late. The members or this baud ap
pear to belong to the most conservative
class of colored men who are worthy
of the confidence of their employers.
The music furnished is the best we
have heard within a long space of time.

Called Home.
A resident of this city, who is also
an Arkansas planter, yesterday received
a telegram asking him to return im
mediately to his place on the Missis
sippi, as a flood was inevitable and his
presence was needed at once. The
plantation owned by this gentleman is
situated about 190 miles below Mem
phis. This shows that the recent rains
in the West have been quite extensive,
and that a dangerous rise in the Father
of Waters is imminent.
That section of our country has suf
fered extensively of late years, but we
hope it will in this instance escape an
other inundation.

THE THIRD GEORGIA.
THEIR RECEPTION AT PORTS
MOUTH.
Preliminary Glorification—Georgia
and Virginia Embrace and Say
Sweet Things to One Another.
The programme for the reception of
the Third Georgia’s surviving veterans
was as follows : The firing of a national
salute, upon the arrival of the train, at
7:15 o’clock, by the artillery corps of
the Chambers Fire Company. At the
depot the Georgians were received
by the Old Dominion Guard Associa
tion, Capt. Henry A. Allen; the Ports
mouth Rifle Company Association,
Capt. W. J. Wood; the Jackson Light
Infantry, Capt. D. J. Turner, Jr.; ex-
Confederate soldiers under command
of Maj. Chas. R. McAlpine, of the Gist
Virginia Regiment, and citizens gener
ally. All in citizens’ dress were under
the command of Col. Wm. White, late
of the 14th Virginia Regiment, as Chief
Marshal. The visitors were escort
ed to Oxford Hall, where the wel
come address was made by Hon. A.
8. Watts, Mayor of the city, followed
by Capt John H. Gayle, of the late 16th
Virginia Regiment; Capt. C. W. Mur
daugh, late of the Gist Virginia Regi
ment, and Col. D. J. Godwin, of the
late 9th Virginia Regiment.
Mayor Watts’ Welcome Address.
Veteran Survivors of the Third Georgia :
As soon as it was known that you had de
cided to celebrate your annual reunion this
year on your old first camping grounds,
near our city, a meeting of our citizens was
held, and the following resolution adopted:
“Whereas, The citizens of Portsmouth
have learned with much pleasure that the
survivors of the Third Georgia Regiment
have decided to celebrate their next annual
reunion in this city on the 4tli of August
next, and remembering their prompt re
sponse to the call for troops to reinforce
our own in April, 1861, and their gallant
record during that long and unfortunate
struggle, we will welcome them as becomes
citizens of Virginia, and do all in our power
to make their visit happy and pleasant.
And, in response to that resolution, as the
chier officer and representative of the au
thorities of this city, the important trust
is devolved upon me of welcoming you in
our midst; and while I gieatly appreciate
the high honor. In which my official posi
tion places me, of having to welcome such
distinguished guests, I regret that the re
sponsibility had not devolved upon some
one more capable than myself; but in per
forming tliis duty, gentlemen, permit me
t > say that it is no less pleasing to myseli
than, I am sure, it will be gratifying to you,
to state that in tendering you a welcome 1
am representing and reflecting the wishes
and sentiments of not only the corporate
authorities of this city—not only your
brother soldiers in arms during the long
struggle—but all classes of our citizens;
and in their behalf I now take great pleas
ure, officially and as an individual citizen,
in tendering you a warm and cordial wel
come to the freedom and hospitalities of
our city.
Georgians : I have stated that, in wel
coming you to-night, I was repre
senting and reflecting the wishes and
sentiments of this community, but I
need not stop here. I believe I am
representing and reflecting the senti
ments of the whole people of our renowned
old State, and if you should be pleased to
extend your visit to any other section,
whether in citv, county or town, the sons
of the “Old Dominion” and especially
those gallant fellows who shared vs ith you
the toils and hardships of the mighty con
flict will give you a warm and hearty wel
come. When 13 years ago you left your
happy homes and pitched your tents near
this city, the red clouds of war cast their
lurid shadows over our entire land; the
reveille and the tattoo was heard upo>
every hill-top and in every valley, and
both sides, the North and South, were
marshalling their hosts for the mighty
contest, the end of which no eye could
then see, and the sons of the “Old Domin
ion” and the sons of the “Empire State of
the South” stood shoulder to shoulder in a
common cause, and throughout that long,
ardous and bloody struggle manifested
their manhood and their courage in a
patriotic devotion to the cause of their na
tive land, and many of the gallant spirits
sealed that devotion with their blood.
That cause however sacrod is lost, the rev
ille and the tattoo hushe 1 the gloomy
eiouds of war have disappeared; the feel
ings of bitterness and hatred engendered
by the strife have subsided, and we now
have the honor and the pleasure of greet
ing you in a happy reunion under the au
spices of peace as brothers of a common
country, i said lost—but no—it is not en
tirely lost—it will live, bright in the pages
of history—its teachings will go down to
future generations, and warn the n that
guaranteed constitutional rights cannot be
invaded with impunity. , ,
Manv of the gallant boys who pitched
their tents with you, on this, their lirst
old camp ground, in 1861, wiio aided by
their valor on every battle-field in making
glorious and illustrious the arms of the
South are now absent. Not on sick leave,
not on furlough, but with them the storm
of battle is o’er, they have long since joined
the “roll of honor;” “they sleep their last
sleep, they have fought their last battle,
no sound can awake them to glory again.”
But their memories will endure not alone
in brass and marble, but when the brass
shall have corroded and the marble Grum
bled, will still live green in the hearts of a
grateful people.
Once more, Georgians, in the name of out
city and its citizens. I tender you a warm
and happy welcome!
Response of Col. Claiborne Snead.
Mb. Mayor:—For your generous wel
come I thank you. It reaches the heart
and touches a responsive chord in the bo
soms of all these Georgians, and I would
to God that I had all the ability necessary
to a proper response thereto. I wish that
for but one moment I had the inspiring
charm of Mercury’s golden chain, that I
might tell all that mortal heart can feel
but what mortal tongue cannot adequately
express. Thirteen years ago a similar wel
come was awarded the Third Georgia Regi
ment at almost this identical spot, and in
full view of the smouldering fires and crum
bing walls of Gosport Navy Yard. Then,
with ranks full and in the spring time of pa
triotic hope,they came forth to meat the first
shock of battle ; and being the first or
ganized regiment of Georgians on Virginia
soil here, they stood with bristling steel
ready to help hurl back the threatened inva
sion of your commonwealth. This was the
place of our regimental birth. It was the
scene of our entrance upon a military career
of high hopes and anticipations, which,
continuing for four long years, ended alone
with the annihilation of the army of the
immortal Lee. It was hero among cherish
ed friends, who one year before nad been
strangers, that they enlisted for a second
time, and this time they cheerily entered
the contest for the war. carrying with them
true great hearts, every impulse qf the soul
and all the energies of their nature. It was
near this place within the shadows of Dis
mal Swamp that.we received our baptismal
tire and where comrades were first slain in
battle. It was here subsequently we
were received In triumph; and Rome iff her
palmiest days never gavo her conquering
legions a more cordial ovation than was
rewarded the Third Georgia Regiment on
that day by the sons and daughters of
Portsmouth.
This then is holy ground, for there is a
sacred halo overhanging this, the locality
of our first year’s military experience. And,
hence, we have returned to this trysting
place, here to renew, face to face, and hand
in hand, a comradeship which, formed
amid the fire and smoke of battle, now sur
vives in the small remnant you see before
you of that proud regiment that carried its
flag defiantly and untouched by the hands
of an enemy from our first battlefield at
South Hills down to Appomattox
You have been pleased to allude to ab
sent soldiers, who have “crossed the river
and are resting beneath the shade of the
trees on the opposite side.” At this mo
ment the gallant Grimes and a host of
others—choice spirits and the brightest
jewels of Portsmouth—pass in review before
mo. Though their lips are sealed and
hearts are pulseless, yet they mutely tes
tify as exemplars that
"The sweetest libation liberty draws
Is the heart that bleeds and breaks in her
cause."
Will their fidelity and noble services be
forgotten? No! Your beautiful Elizabeth
river will sooner turn its course back to
Albemarle sound than this generation aud
generations to come will cease to remem
ber their matchless valor.
After so long an absence, we are proud to
stand once more on the soil and beneath
the blue skies of grand old Virginia, to
take her sons by the hand and renew that
affection which was formed and cemented
in times that tried men’s souls. In our
persons. Georgia pays her unfeigned
tribute of respect aud admiration to Vir
ginia, who, like the Mother of the Gracchi,
has her true patent of nobility in the gen
uine manhood of her sons; and I may add,
in the virtues and perfections of her
daughters, too. We recur to the efforts and
fortitude of these noble women in every
contest of this State. When we lookback at
Virginia, in her first revolution, illustrated
by George Washington and Light-horse
Harry Lee; when we look at Virginia, in
her second but unsuccessful revolution,
illustrated by the peerless Robert E. Lee
and Stonewall Jackson, well may I esclaim,
in the language of Ossian, “The oaks of
the mountains may fall; the mountains
themselves decay with years; the ocean
may shrink and grow again; the moon
herself be lost in heaven, but thou art
forever the same, rejoicing in the bright
ness of thy course.”
History has written in golden letters, and
poetry has thrown a romantic charm
around Athens and Sparta of ancient
Greece. The inhabitants of one abandoned
their devoted city, and transporting their
treasures and household gods to their ships,
won imperishable renown at Salamis;
while the other, at Thermopylae, demon
strated through Leoni fas and his chosen
band of three hundred followers that dis
parity of numbers, however great, is small
where brave men know how to die. But
when we look at the changed condition of
these people, and see their present degen
eracy, in the words of Lord Byron—
“ ’Tis Greece, but living Greece no more!”
Not so with Virginia. Her present is
consistent with her glorious past; for.
great as she was in her past prosperity,
she is grander still in her present adversity.
She is Virginia, and still she is living Vir
ginia forever more. There she stands,
crowned with a spotless diadem of Queen
of States, with a record like the face
of her sons that has nothing to blemish its
beauty, a record so bright as to dazzle the
stars in brilliancy, a record so glorious that
“The meanest rill, the mightiest river.
Flows mingliog with her fame forever.”
Again I thank you for your generous
welcome. It conveys more than the ordi
nary courtesies of life, something more
pleasant than the transient pleasures of
time; it teaches that this chain of friend
ship among the people of this Southern
land will never break however much it
may be lengthened by time and strained by
distance.
And so far as I am individually concerned,
I can say in the language of Bums, changed
to suit my convenience:
“When death’s dark stream I ferry o’er,
The time that surely shall, come,
In Heaven itself I ask no more,
Than such Virginia welcome.”
In response to another note of wel
come, Mr. John D. Carter replied as
follows :
Remarks of Jno. D. Carter, Esq., of
Georgia.
Friends and Comrades—ln addition to
what has been so gracefully said, I desire
to speak as a Georgia-Virginian; a Virgin
ian by birth and breeding, aad a Georgian
by adoption and citizenship.
i hey tell us a noble Venetian, who in the
contests for power in that beautiful city and
under sentence of the Chamber of Ten was
banished for life from her chryetal do
mains, and yet drawn back by a wild love
for his native home breathed out his last
sigh upon the thick atmosphere of a dun
geon, happy in chains and preferring a
prison near
“The winged Lion’s piles,
Where Venice sat in state, throned on her
hundred isles,”
to the full freedom of all the world besides.
This morning, wnen for the first time in
leu years the golden sun lifted from my eyes
the misty curtain from th i green woods
and broad fields of the Old Dominion, I
thought of the fate of Jacopo Foscari, and
the grateful throbbings of my own heart
told wliat must have been the bursting
agony that tore his soul when doomed
never more to look upon Venice, and watch
“From out the wave her structures rise
as from the stroke of the enchanter’s
wand.”
If I may be pardoned for this further
personal reference, May of the year 1865
was closing when, as a boy-soldier in a
gray jacket and cap somewhat the worse
for service in the winds and weather of the
tented field, I drifted off to Georgia; but
there was no merry-making here then and
no gladsome gatherings on the verdant
lawn to crown the fair May Queen. The
tempest had been abroad in its anger, and
darkness curtained the hills; the plow
stood still in the furrow of promise, and
briars cumbered the garden of beauty.
The blood of the best sons of the
Old Dominion was yet red upon her
fields and the ruins of her pala
tial mansions were yet smoking from
the torch of the destroying foe. The pic
ture upon the coat of arms or the grand
old Commonwealth was sadly reversed,
and the fair form of Virginia, with buckler
itattered and helmet broken and plume in
the dust, lay beneath the foot of the victor,
pale, bleeding and ghastly. And when I
reached Georgia it was the month of roses,
but from that terrible “ March to the Sea ”
there was hardly
“ A rose of the wilderness left on its stalk
To tell whore the garden had been! ”
The arch of the “Constitution” was
broken—the marble pillars of “ Wisdom,
Justice and Moderation,” that supported
it, were shattered on the ground, and over
the ruins of the fair temple trod the iron
heel of the invader. For merry-making
there was mourning in Virginia, and the
rose and the magnolia gave place to the
cypress and the yew tree in Georgia.
ft had been my fortune to mingle with
Georgians first as they stood shoulder to
shoulder, “ ’midst death-shots falling thick
and fast as lightning from a Summer
cloud,” upon the en anguined fields their
devotion and valor helped to make illustri
ous; and I had found them unflinching in
danger, impetuous in the charge and firm
and faithful in the shock and din of battle.
It became my fortune to meet them in their
own homes and by their own firesides; and
I found them noble in their hospitality, the
tenderest as the bravest, the loving as the
daring. The names of Walton, Troup,
Johuson, Jenkins, Cobb, Stephens, Lump
kin, Gordon, Walker and lianse Wright
have gone into history as represen
tatives of the host of noble men
who have stoo I foremost as statesmen in
the councils of the nation, foremost in the
country as jurists upon the benoh and ad
vocates at tiie bar, foremost as chieftains
and leaders upon the fields of war, and
foremost in the lists of gentleman and pri
vate citizens. These, and such sons as
these of Georgia, are prominent m the full
gaze of the world as types of her manhood,
her genius arid her chivalry, that must
command admiration through all tho cy
cles of the rolling ages. But the inner life
of her whole people is not portrayed in the
same blazing letters upon historic pages,
and must be known and anpreciat ‘d from the
miuglings of social relations. These it has
been my privilege to enjoy; aqd I know of
what I speak when I assert that from
where she peeps over the crest of Lookout
Mountain to where her beams dance upon
the sparkling tides of the Atlantic, the
moon of these August nights smiles not
down upon happier firesides and more re
fined homes, nobler matrons and more
High-toned men, fairer maidens and more
devoted patriots, indeed, truthfully may
it be recorded of the Empire State of the
South: “Her sons are brave ami her daugh
ters are virtuous.”
Between Georgia and Virginia there ex
ists the alliance of common interests and
the alliance of common sufferings; there is
the alliauoe of twin-sisters in a common
government, which they together helped
to establish and together strove to pre
serve in its youthful purity and vigor;
there is the alliance of common engage
ment in a common cause, an alliance in
the widespread desolation of common de
feat, and an alliance in the quid? and ear
nest re-establishment of the old-time oon}-
mon prosperity and power. But there is
between them more than this and more
than all these—there is the alliance of
blood which’is thicker than water. While
Georgia wis colonized by Oglethorpe and
his exiies at Savannah, her broad and lovely
domain was settled and conquered from
the savage and built up for the most part
by bold pioneers from the Old Dominion;
and side by side, "in one rofi buriq.l blent ”
lie the chivalric sons of Georgia and of
Virginia all over the hills and valleys of
our Sunny South. Thank God, to-day tnere
is no “shaking hands across the bloody
chasm,” as here these yeterans stand upon
the very spot on which they were first
united as a martial band, to revive the
soldierly intimacies welded in the heat ot
battle and to renew the pleasant social re
lations formed fifteen years ago with this
goodly and warm-hearted people. Geor
gia and Virginia! Forever may they re
main such twin-sisters! For myself, I can
only proclaim, that proud as I am of hav
ing been born and nurtured in 3. x
gsk no higher destiny than to die and be
buried in Georgia.

Yesterday, the first Tuesday in the

the bidding on real estate offered was
not very active.

Guanahani Guano,
Now, when our farmers have had a
good season for the maturing of their
wheat crops, the value of Guanahani
seems to be fully appreciated. We
have heard and seen numbers of testi
monials from the most respectable, in
telligent and practical farmers in Mary
land, Virginia and North Caiolina, who
speak of its valuable fertilizing
properties. The yield, in many in
stances, is stated to be heavier where
it was applied than Peruvian and
other high price fertilizers used side
by side on the same soil, in equal quan
tities. The demand for application on
wheat alone must be very heavy this
fall—the agents iu many sections are
being called on now, far in advance of
the season, to have their orders taken
for wheat seeding. On grass and vege
tables it lias met with no superior.
Cotton and tobacco crops doiug very
well. Guanahani stands second to no
guano or fertilizer on the market, and
we see for it a bright future, and hope
the Guanahani Guano Company will
make suitable arrangements to*meet
the heavy demand they will be called
on to supply.
