wages with board are paid, yet there
are very many negros in Athens who
live by the most precarious means,
and had rather suffer for bread than
go where they can earn an honest
and alundant livelihood.
SOME GEORGIA WRITERS.
We have i.o patience with people
who talk about ‘encouraging south
ern literature.* Whenever literary
work deserves encouragement and ap
proval it is very snro to get it, and
it matters not whether its author was
cradled under the elms of Concord,
or reared amid the roses and jessas
miues of Dixie. A literature distinct
ively .Southern would be abnormal
and unhealthy in this great re
public ot English speaking, book-
loving people. Tiiero may be and
are great differences, among the pub
licists of nations which differ in
tongue, ancestry, traditions, purposes
and interests, but no such conditions
exist here, and we shall not Btop to
ascertain the ‘locale* of an author’s
birth, provided he gives usa refresh--
ir.g draught from the “well ot En
glish undefiled.”
Having premised this much, it is
with great pleasure that we see that
contemporary opinion is becoming
quite favorable, and iudecd commend
atory of the literary work of several
young men of this Slate. ’’’ We pre
sume that many ot onr readers will
know at once that our reference is to
Sidney Lanier, Joel C. Harris and
Henry W. Grady. Ot the first ot
these, most unfortunately, a brilliant
and most propitious career has been
arrested by his untimely death. Mr.
Lanier lived long enough to deserve
and receive the unqualified admira
tion of many ot the finest and most
cultured intellects in America. The
others are familiar fiieuds.
Mr. Harris is most widely known,
perhaps, as the author of ‘Folk Lore
of the old Plantation,’ aud is the cre
ator of the 4 Uncle Remus,’ who is
delighting all the folks, big aud little,
North and South, but he is also wide
ly known as a brilliant paragraphic ;
and as one of the heavy editors of
the Constitution, be handles the more
weighty topics of the day with con
summate ease. It is delightful to Mr.
Harris’ friends to sec how largely he
is quoted by the most advanced jour
nalists of the great Northern papers.
It is. however, in the inimitable
charm of his Uncle Remus stories and
lvrina that Mr. Harris is so dear to
all lovers of humor, and to all who
can appreciate the simple pathos iu
the life of the old plantation darkey.
Henry W. Grady is an Athens
bov. He took to journalism because
he couldn’t help it. He is iu our
opinion the most brilliant descriptive
writer on the newspapers of the day.
No man has done more to advertise
our goodly Southland than he. His
recent article in the October Harper
is a most able and vigorons resume of
our cotton production—its profits, its
future. Embellished by tno grace
ful and nrtis.io skill, of Miss Frank
lin, another Athenian, this article
should bo read and enjoyed by all, at
any rate, who live in the sound ot the
University bells. Athens is proud of
Grady, and most of her people love
in him a gentle, kindly nature that
never resents an injury, and has no
word of uukiudness even for thosu
who criticise, detract or malign. In
the hands of men of this sort ‘ South
ern Literature’ liecomcs distinctively
American, and jieoplc North and
South will not be slow to appreciate
and reward it.
Made Money.
Nashville American.
News from the seat of the Indian
war in Arizona shows an enormous
amount of military operations to the
amount of dead Indians bagged. So
far, after days of marching and
great battle, the United States troops
bagged one Indian and one little
squaw taken alive. It is clear that
our country made money by boarding
Sitting Bull recently at a first-class
western hotel
Mr. George Scoville, Gnitean 1
brother-in-law, has arrived in Wash
ington to defend the assassin. He
told a reporter—‘If I didn't think ti
unfortunate uian waa insane, I would
not defend him at all. It he is not in
sane, and cannot clearly ba made
appear so, he ought to be bung.* He
also add that he had many offers from
able and distinguished lawyers to oa-
gist him ia the defense.
THE CENSUS OS TOBACCO CULTURE.
The census bulletin, No. 263, gives
some interesting facts upon the cult
ure and curing of tobacco.
The tobacco crop of the Stale of
Virginia for 1879 was nearly 80,000,-
000 pounds ; Indiana raises 8,872,-
842 pounds; Connecticut, 14,000,000
Kentucky, 171,120,784; North Caro*
lina, nearly 29,000,000 pquuds.
Maine has one acre in tobucco and
raises 250 pouuds. The Empire State
which everybody will understand is
Georgia, had in 1879 a ^foduct of
228,590 pounds. The largest tobac
co growing county in Georgia is the
county of Cherokee. Its production
17,900 pounds; and the next
largest .is Gwinnett, with 11,588
pounds. Our own county of Clarke
has one acre in tobacco and raises 445
pounds. The smallest tobacco-grow
ing county in the Stale, according to
the census, is where Hou. Alexander
H. Stephens resides, in Taliaferro,
which plants an acre and raises 205
pounds.
Where the Banner chiefly circulates
t.he yield is as follows .
PRESIDENT ARTHUR'S WIFE.
The wife of Chester A. Arthur was
a Miss Herndon, ot Fredericksburg
Va., whose family has always illustra
ted the best traits of the souih. The
Herndons are closely related by
marriage to tho Maurys—another
family whose fame is without fear and
without reproach. Midshipman W
L. Herndon married Mis9 Maury, and
within tho honeymoon-was ordered
off to a cruise in the Indian end
China seas. Two years afterwards
he returned to embrace his wife and
a lovely little girl, who completed his
happiness by lisping 'dear papa.’ This
daughter married Cheater A. Arthur.
She died about two years ago, to the
intense sorrow of her husband, leav
ing two children, one of whom, a boy,
is said to have inherited all the splen
did virtues of the Ilerr.dons and
Maurys.
Jan.es Bowie and Ha Knife.
James Bowie lay for months in bis
bed, in the city of Natchez, before
he recovered from bis wound. He
was a man of much mechanical inge
nuity, and while thus confined, whit
tled from a piece ot white pine the
model of a bunting knife, which he
sent to two brothers named Black
man, in tho city of Natchez, and told
them to spare no expense in making
a duplicate of it in steel. This was
tht origin of the dreaded bowie-knite.
It was made from a large saw-mill
file, and ita temper afterwards im
proved upon by the Arkansas black
smith. This is all that can be told
about'the origin of that death-deal
ing implement.—San Francisco

An acre ol land in Georgia seems
to produce as much as an acre ofland
in Illinois or Virgiuia, according to
tho tabular statements of the census
officials. Thus, Bureau county, Illi
nois, has one acre with a yield of 460
pounds, against Clarke’s one acre of
445 pounds. Whereas, Giuudy coun
ty, III., with three acres, yields only
880 pounds, 3gainst Oconee's 995
poundsLor the same acreage. From
this it would appear that the culture
of tobacco might be made very prof
itable in Georgia, and particularly in
ibis section of Georgia—for of the
228,000 pouuds raised iu Georgia,
82,618 pounds are produced in 18 of
the 20 counties of the 9th Congres
sional District. All of which is food
for reflection to the thoughtlul reader.
