The editor of the Madison Ap
peal and Advertiser, in the last is-,
sue of that paper, sends out his val
edictory, and states his purpose of
joining in with the “South,” a pa
per published in New York.
The recently published state
' wont of the amounts contributed to
the Ladies’ Lee Monument Fund,
of Richmond, Va., by the Southern
States, shows that Georgia is far

a white man is swindling the ne

ment that the emancipation procla

get up another ; and that unless the
thing was done soon slavery would
be restored, and they would all go
back into servitude.

reports he has bees farming thirty
years and that ho has never bought
a bushel of corn, wheat, nor oats,
except five bushels of oats for seed
after his crop had been destroyed
by rust, nor had be ever purchased
a pouud of bacon or laid. He feeds
all bis stock and supplies all bis
hands with provisions which are
produced upon his own farm. He
now fias corn in his crib two years
old.
On a recent evening, a Brook
lynite was walking along Atlantic
avenue, when he was jostled and
passed by a stranger. Soon after
ward, discovering that his watch
was gone, ho hurried after the
stranger, presented a revolver at
his head and grimly said : “ Give
me that watch.” The stranger
u f or ked over” at once. On reach
ing home the gentleman began tell
ing the story of his adventure to
his wife, when she interrupted him
by saying, “ Why, John, you left
your watch on the bureau this
morning, and I have been wearing
it all day.”
An Interesting Case. —W e
learn that on Tuesday an interrest
ing case will come up before the
United States District Court, in a
suit between the Western Union-
Telegraph Company and the Wes
tern and Atlantic Railroad Compa
ny. The facts seem to be that
Foster Blodgett, while Superintend
ent of the Western and Atlantic
Railroad, made a contract with the
Telegraph Company, which was
highly advantageous to the latter.
When the road was leased, Hon. J.
E. Brown, President of the Wes
tern and Atlantic Railroad Com
pany,* informed the Telegraph Com
pany that he was not bound by
said contract, and wanted to be put
on a footing with other railroad.
nn, p Telegraph Combany refused to
do, and instructed their operators
to ’take no messages from the Wes
tern and Atlantic Railroad except
at full rates. President Brown then
issued an order directed that no
employer of the Telegraph Compa
ny should travel over the State
Road except at full rates, or be al
lowed to go on the freight trains;
and that all material, including tel
egraph poles, should not be trans
ported for loss than full rates, and
only delivered at regular stations.
The Telegraph Company presented
a bill against the State Road, which
President Brown declined to pay.
We believe the shit is founded
upon this action. — Constitution.

adopted a similar rub*. !
!>eht.
The Houston Home Journal, in
speaking of the indebtness of Hous
ton County makes statements equal
ly applicable to this section.’ It
sajs that debt is the curse of our
country. If a list should be taken
of all the people of Houston who
are in debt, we believe it would
include nine-tenths, or more, of all
the white men in the county. And
a great many of them are deeply
in debt, so much so that they have
very little hope of ever paying out.
Our people talk of being poor: they
are only poor because they are in
debt. A man may own a large,'
fertile aud very valuable blantation,
and yet he will tell you he is very
poor—so poor that he is cramped in
his expenditures. His land may
be capable of producing thousands
of bushels of corn, scores of bales
of cotton, and almost everything
that he needs to eat, and yet he is
poor.
How can this be ? It is simply
because he is in debt. He has
managed his business so badly that
his broad and fertile acres, which
might have fed a small army, have
produced no food for his family,
his laborers and his stock, and he
has gone in debt for it.
It is all important that our peo
ple should get out of debt and start
to making something. Every trade
aud profession is flourshing except
fanning. That which is the basis
of all wealth in the country is
struggling in poverty. It ought
not to be so, and that it is so the far
mors may thank themselves.
It is our opinion that the princi
pal part of the debts our people
owe are for provisions- The other
things they buy could be paid for
without much difficulty, if they did
not have such provision bills to
pay.
Most of them are ashamed to run
a horse farm, conducted on so small
a scale that they need not go in debt
to begin with. They have too
much pride for that. They must
hire a largo number of hands: m.u&t
buy provisions to feed these hands
on credit;must buy horses and mules
on time ; they must go in debt on
a large speculation, and either pay
two and a half per cent a month
for money borrowed or its equiva
lent in additional profit on the sup
plies bought. But then they are
perfectly safe ; for they can calcu
late within a few pounds of the
amount ‘of cotton they are going to
raise, and exactly how much they
are going to get for it.
But somehow their expectations
are not realized ; they do not have
as much cotton as they expected,
or it does not bring as good a price
as they expected, and all their plans
aud hopes fall to the ground. They
cannot pay out of debt. Neverthe
less they try the same plan the next
year, aud the next, and the next
—failing every time and every
time ending they ear deeper in debt.
Is not this the experience of most
of our farmers? We appeal to
them to say if this is not true, or
nearly true. If they have been
failing ever since the war on the
plan they have been trying, why, in
the name of sense, do they not try
some other? Farmers, raise your
ow n .supplies, and avoid debt as
you would old Satan; this is the
only way to restore our country to
a condition of prosperity.
Don’t Push the Toting:
Folks.
The St. Louis Journal of Educa
tion truthfully says “it is a mistake
to suppose anything is to be gained
iu hastening a chi’d’s education by
stimulating it to undue exertion
Experience has demonstrated that
a few hours of study a day, supple
mented with proper physical exer
cise, result in more thorough and
permanent unfolding of the faculties
than many hours of close applica
tion alone. A child is realy better
educated for not being pushed on
fast. Besides, what is the use to a
man or woman of a tniud crammed
with learning and versed in science
and metaphysics, if bodily health
be wanting? A bad digestion and
a head never free from pain will
paralyze the brightest intellect, and
render unavailable all the dear
bought acquisition of years. A
comparatively limited education,
backed by a strong and vigorous
constitution, will accomplish far
more in the battle of life than the
greatest acquirements coupled with
feebleness and iil health. The able
men and the influential women of
the day are not those who have had
the most schooling, but those whose
bodily strength enables them to en
dure the most mental as well phys
ical fatigue.” We commend these
hints to the attention of those hav
ing the education of the young
folks in hand.
Beginning to Think.— The
Washington correspondent of the
New York Herald has this remark:
“If England dare not go to war
with us from the danger she would
expose herself to from Ireland, still
less dare we to go to war with Eng
land, knowing how easily she could
lan the discontent of 'the South io
ta anew rebellion, which, with the
aid of England, might dety all our
[tower to subdue.
The Cotton Tax.
A good opportuuity is now being
afforded Northern politicians who
disclaim indulging in revengeful
feelings towards the South, to make
good their profession. A bill to
refund the cotton tax illegally and
unconstitutionally extorted from the
Southern people, in the hour of
their greatest helplessness and
greatest need, is now before Con
gress. It is gratifying to see that
the passage of the bill is advocated
in some quarters from which we
have not been in the habit of look
ing for magnanimity, and have
scarcely hoped for justice. Some
of the leading and most preminent
Republicans papers have of late
indicated a statesman-like purpose
to and what was right in this matter
regardless of past prejudices an
committals. Among them we take
pleasure in recognizing the Wash
ington Chronicle , whose sentiments
favoring the measure we append.
Upon the question of the uncon
stitutionality of the tax, the South
is a unit; and a very large prepon
derance of the Northern Democra
cy, if not the entire party, is of the
same opinion. It is not an opinion
merely, but a profound aud settled
couviction that the tax is unconsti
tutional. In the most rapid period
of sectional bitterness, the legal
profession in all sections has shown
a marked leaning against the Gov-
and with the South on the
question. The Supreme Court has
stood equally divided upon it. This
is of itself a strong indication that
the tax was unconstitutional; for it
is but natural to expect that a court
composed as that is, would lean
towaids the Government. It is
the policy, if not the function of
the judiciary to presume every
thing in favor of the legality of
what is done by the two co ordinate
Departments.
But in a case like this, and under
the peculiar hardships of it, the
impoverished and suffering South
ougjit to be allowed the benefit of
the doubt. Congress might well
grant in the spirit of magnanimity
what the law, as interpreted by a
court not partial to tne applicants,
has failed to extort.
Whether it be a returning sense of
justice, or a stroke of policy, in
view of the pending angry quarrel
with England, and the probabilities
of war tbat propitiates Northern
sentiment in favor of the bill, the
South will be equally gratified if
this cotton tax is returned to her.
It will come to the South to rein
vigorate her industry, build up her
enterprises, and give he new hopes
of prosperity. YV bother the money
finds its way back into the pockets
of the cotton planters, or of the
cotton factors and merchants, still
it will come to the South, and dif
fuse its benefits among all.
Sooner or later this money must
and will come back to us. It has
gone illegally into the Treasury,
aud the Southern people will con
tinue to knock at the door for it
until it is paid back.
The party now in power may
find it policy to do a just and gener
ous act by favoring the bill now.
If so, it will go far t© offset in the
Southern mind many wrongs at its
hands of which the Southern peoule
complain. But from this Adminis
tration, or the next, we count con
fidently on justice.— Augusta(Ga.)
Constitutionalist, 24 th inst.
Amount of* Cotton Tax
Collected,
We find in a late number of the
Herald, the following tabular
statement showing the amount of
cottoq tax colected while the law
ordering it was in force, from 1863
to 1868 inclusive:
Fiscal Years. Amount
1863 $ 321,111
1864 1,268,415.
1865 1,268,412
1860- 18,409,653
1867 23,769,149
1868 15,500,998
During the years 1866 and 1867,
there was collected by treasury
special agents an aggregate tax of
$2,018,319 in thelateinsurrectionary
States most of which was on cot
ton ; so that the tax it now proposed
to refund amounts, in round num
bers, to $70,000,000. Under the act
of Congress, of July 1, 1862, the
tax on raw cotton was fixed at one
half of one cent, per pound, aud
remained at that rate until June 20,
1864, when it was increased to two
cents per pound. On the 13th of
July, iB6O, however, it was in
crease to three cents per pound,
where it remaiued until September
1, 1867, when it was fixed at two
and a half cents -per pound. On
the 3d of February, 1868, the tax
was altogether abolished.
JEST We are glad to learn fVom
the Quincy Journal that a petition
to the President far the pardon of
Gov. Allison, signed by ail the Gov
errnent including both Governors,
aud all the leading Radical mem
bers of both branches of the Legis
lature, besides numerous private
citizens of prominence, has been,
we understand, already forwarded
to Washington. This will be good
new&io the Governor’s many friends
in this section and throughout the
State, and with them we heartily
hope the petition may prove suc
cessful.
As Gov. Allison’s conviction was
perjured testimony and a prejudic
ed jury, the enforcement of his sen
tence would be fragrantly unjust
and oppressively cruel. We hope
President Grant may find in this
case a fitting occasion for the exer
cise of his executive clemency.
Worthy of Record —A gentle
man, who had owed an account of
SIOO in one of our stores since iB6O,
deliberat walked in yesterday, hauld
ed his weasel, and shelled out the
cash, and that without a duuuing
or reminder of any kind. Such a
thing in these days is very rare,
and deserves to be spread upon the
minutes. Who’d have “thunk” it ?

Death of A. YV. Betubnk.—After
an illness of several days, Judge A.
W. Bethune, son of Gen. M. Bethune,
and Ordinary of Talbot county, died
Saturday night, suddenly. For
some months he had been in feeble
health, and at times unable to at
tend to the business of his office,
Judge Bethune made a good officer,
and we believe endeavored to dis
charge the obligations imposed in
the administration of the law,
touching the interest of the commu
nity and county, with fidelity and
honor. He was a young man and
died in the bloom or youth leaving
a wife, child, parents and friends
to mourn his untimely death. Rev..
R. W. Dixon officiated in a beautiful
ceremony at his grave. It was very
ppropriate and touching, and
asked in conclusion, “who next ?”
