MILITIA
THE DECLINE IN FARM VALUES-
The glowing picture of" the pros
perity of the agricultural interest in
the South, which has been painted
by the editor of the Baltimore Man
ufacturer’s Record, is in striking
contrast with the sombre present
ments of the condition of tne same
interest in two other sections of the
country, which is given by the Phil-
dtlphia Press, as follows :

We were opposed to paying the
lessees any betterments, but urged
the necessity of our representatives
meeting them as one business man
should another, and ‘ making at least
an attempt to settle the differences
with an eye to tbe interests aud hon
or of our State. But instead of this,
these members closed their ears to
reason,- and listened only to the
whine of tbe demagogues. As a
natural consequence they have de
feated the very ends which, as guar
tiians of the public interests, they
should have furthered. The legis
lature just adjourned gives promise
of wrecking this splendid piece of
property even more effectually than
Senator Brown threatened to do in
his letters. They will not only de.
prive the State of the handsome in
come she has received monthly from
the road, bat will also force its busi
ness through other and rival chan
nels, so that even if a lease is effect
ed in the future, it will be like build
ing up a new road.
This shows the folly of our voters
selecting men to represent them who
pay more heed to popular clamor
than to the voice of reason. The
intelligent and thinking people of
Georgia were willing to do the fair
thing by the lessees of this road,
and only wanted what was rightfully
their own. But the cry of “monop
oly,” “ corporations,” “ lobbyists,’
etc., was raised by a few men who
wanted to create a popular tide on
which to float into office, and they
prevented even an effort at a settle
ment of these claims.
The result of this unbusiness-like
action will be that the State will
have to take again in band her rail
road, aud operate it with men who
do not understand the business.
The expenses will be Margety increas
ed, and the receipts greatly lessened
This railroad will again be brought
into . politics, and all the evils and
troubles attendant thereon be re
peated.
Now had a settlement been made
with the L. & N., and that corpora
tion appeased, the same company
would gladiv have re leased the pro
perty at a"n increased rental, and all
would have gone on smoothly. It is
too late now to remedy the trouble.
It will be a bad day for Georgia
when no bids are received for the
road, and it must again be operated
by tbe State officials.

diers would doubtless have gone far
toward relieving tbe anxiety and
fear of the frightened women and
children, and it really seems to us
that they should have abandoned or
postponed their re-onion, to do duty
in so noble a cause. The Brunswick
company most properly heeded the
appeals of tbe citizens and remained
on guard in the town.
Of course we do not propose to
place our judgment in opposition to
that of tbe commanders of this mil
itia, hut wc venture the assertion
that had Governor Gordon sent a
couple of companies of our up-
country boys—the Clarke County
Rifles or Elberton Light Infantry for
instance—to Jessup, that their first
act would have been to charge that
swamp and capture Brewer and his
gang, if they had to wade through
mud up to their arm pits. Then
again, it seems to us a reflection that
a mob should be permitted to enter

the negro is made to believe that the 1
white people are his enemies and
oppressors, and are induced to resort
to extreme or lawless measures to
secure his imaginary rights. There
is never but one end to tbese race
