A very valuable pamphlet has
been issued by the American Iron and

of American steel rails. The experi

tabulated. Tablo 1 shows that of the
American rails laid from 1838 to 1878
only 5.26 per cent, were removed,
this notwithstanding the imperfect
character of the rail made in 1871.

ment to his surrender to the French
on Sept. 23,1817, he nev°r ceased to
fight in bitter hatred against the
French power in Algeria, except when
he got. their assistance ‘temporarily
against his uneasy native princes.
From Algiers to Morocco his power
was acknowledged, for he preached
religion like a Moslem fanatic, fought
in battle like a great king, moved
from poiut to point like a bandit
chief, and cut off the heads of rebel
lious emirs like an eastern despot.
Even when his insignia of sovereign
ty were torn from him by his furious
followers after a disastrous battle, he
recovered liis absolute sway by a
clever stroke, and was a second Jn-
I gurtlia for his lion-like valor anddiis
fox-like cunning. A lone fugitive
ar.d au overwhelmingly powerful mon
arch, a leader of a magnificent army
and A court intriguer, he was always
great, and al ways, as far as*a clever
warrior can be, honorable. Impris
oned in Franee and liberated by Na-
poleou, lie afterwards visited Paris
and London, helped the Christians in
Asia, wrote a treatise on Algeria, and
died in Damascus. No wonder the

Tlie Georgia Grant Phalanx, to
date, consists of R. A- Crawford,
Luther J. Glenn, Geo. T. Fry, J. F.
Burke, and O. A. Lochrnnc. Col.
Marcc-llus Thornton, as far as wo arc
aware, is yet to Le heard from.
It turns out to have been some lit
tle boys who threw the eggs at Grant
in Illinois. We are glad they were
discovered, for if they hadn’t'been the
stalwarts would have sworn that some
sneaking unrcconslructcd.rebel did it,
and thus had another argument for
1S80.
Assistant Secretary of State Sew
ard lias resigned and Col. John Hay
has been appointed his successor. Hay
was private secretary to President
Lincoln. He is also known to fame
as the author of those pathetic poet
ical compositions, * Little Breeches,”
mid “Jim Bhulso.”
Nearly five years ago, through the
columns of the Augusta Constitution
alist, we declared Thomas F. Bayard,
of all men, lo be our choice for tlie
Presidency of the United States. We
bad just watched him through an im
portant and very exciting session of
Congress, we had seen him day after
day engage iu the Senatorial arena
with the champion Republican gladi
ators and bear himself most bravely
and yarely, wo had listened to him
in a thrill ol grateful emotions as he
rejielled and refuted the savage and
slanderous assaults of Morton, Conk-
ling, Edmunds and Logan upon the
South and her people, and that, too,
without assuming the attitude of the
mere partisan, and we felt that there
was the man who, more than any
other, would grace that exalte*! sta
tion with a lustre it had not received
since the days of James Monroe. We
have closely observed bis career since
then, and have seen nothing in it to
lessen the admiration aroused the day
we first listened to him; therefore, the
Banker waves for Bayard.
In a hi ief reference to Harvard
College, the other day, we touched
upon the subject of education in gen
eral, with the remark that we pur
posed saying something more on that
topic. We will preface our reflec
tions with a few observations on tlie
luxurious dish the name ol which is
at the head of this article.
Pale de foie gras is a dish alike
costly and unwholesome. He who
cats much of it losses uneasily on his
bed at night instead ol enjoying quiet
slumber, lie sees visions of ghosts
as unpleasant as any of the material
ized spirils which recently performed
in an eastern town, and shrinks from
their attacks as nervously as if, like

Dr. Felton's Letter.
Hon. Win. A. Felton, the independ
ent democratic congressman from the
scvonlh district, has written a letter
to somebody iu Washington city on
the political situation as he sees it.
If the letter contained any news, or
anything uew or startling, we would
give it place in the columns of the
Banner, but as it has nothing of the
sort our notion of duty to our readers
will not allow us to give to it the space
which should be filled with news.
We said there is nothing startling
in the letter. We mean that it shows
no departure of Dr. Felton from the
attitude we have understood him to
occupy all along. It dues surprise us
by the laek of discretion it shows on
tho part of its author. It it is merely
a recital of what he says have been the
blunders of those who have assumed
the leadership of the democratic par
ty, and a p'-edictioil that tln-se blun
ders would result in the de'eat of tho
party. What surprises us is ilia*. Dr.
Felton, if he really desires the success
of that party, should think I • contrib
ute-lo it by such a letter as.this. If
its circulation could be confined to
democrats it would at any rate do no
harm, ami might do
s>me good—which. however,,
is very questionable. * But the Dr
seems to have written it as much for
the republican eye as the democratic,;
indeed, we believe its first publication
was in a republican paper As a sin
cere, unselfish effort,, the", to avert
defeat from the] democratic, party, it
comes in questionable shape, to put it
in the mildest form. It is not the
kind of effort a Stephens, or a Bay
ard, or a Pendleton would make.
Wo fear that tho fatal itching for no
toriety has gotten tho Dr. by the nose
and would advise him to “ shake it,”
for it will to many a blunder lead
him.
A Priest-King Dead.
Tho death of Abd-el-Kader is of no
consequence to the world, as he has
filled so insignificant a place in it for
some years past that lie goes out of It
like a drop of water from a bucket,
but it serves to recall {jis greatness,
and tho stir ho made in European
affiurs and in the North of Africa

in Algeria, lie was one of those men

by tbe feet to the floor, so that they
cannot w. lk away. In this captive
condition They are slutted with rich
porridee, which is thrust down their
throats more rapidly than they can
digest it. Their livers become ens
gorged and diseased and before long
are three times the size of a healthy
liver. There is a point in the history
of these geese which is the critical
moment of tieir existence. It
when they ore stuffed exactly enough
and can hold no more. Another
dose or two would make them dead
gcc.-e, and if the poor, suffering birds
were to die of themselves their livers
would not be considered such a del
icacy as they are when the execution
er lias a chance to end their miserable
live-*.
In some quarters 'there is among
the prom iters of education a desire
for carrying on a manufactory of
something like pate de foie gias. In
stead of geese, the object is to stuff
living children. In tend of killing
the victims by twisting their necks,
knocking them on the head or cutting
their little throats, they are to die
what is commonly called a natural
death, but which is as unnatural and
o -uel as any form of slow murder can
be, and none tho less cruel because
it is slow. Instead ot sta
ting tho children with [or
ridge, as the geese and ganders
are stuffed, the plan is i<> give them n
bill of fare’compose-l ot Mragmcnts of
the choicest literary dainties. In
tlinnse' ves, and admiuisler *1 at suit
able times and in projicr doses, these
dainties might be digestible enough.
It is the overdosing which is unwise
and cruel. It is the dealing out to
children of ten, twelve anil fifteen
years of age a mass of study-tasks
which would be found too enormous
for young people o! much more ma
ture m'nds. To cram into young
children the mental pabulum which
would suit beys who are bei g fitted '
for college, is to disease tho min i am>.
to cripple the body. Primarily, it is
the brain which suffers ; but with the
damage to that vita! organ, the whole
physical economy is more or less
damaged. Tho] mischief is accom
plished before its effects arc fully vim
ible in tlie child. Weakened] eyes,
aching heads,"pain ful spinal co!umr.s,
and incompetent stomachs nro] the
first indications that the powers of
the system are overtaxed. If ju
dicious parents take timely action be
fore tLe evil has done Us fall work,
the child may bo saved by a discon
tinuance of the stuffing process. If
n>t, die pampered javcnilo is marked
for an early grave, or else set asid
for a life of enfeebled nervousness and
miserable decay. Boys can stand the
pressure better than girls dm, and do
not In so many instances break down.
When they do, the wreck is not as
complete as in the case of the poor
