to Ride Over the Ocean!
Atlanta, Nov. 25.—The craze among
the negroes to go to Africa seems to be
growing daily, and meetings and suppers
me given almost every night in some
jiortion of the city to get the poor crea*
lures together, when they are harrangued
by professed agents, who tell them that
Africa u!>otmds “with milk and honey,”
and one potato will hist them a whole
year !
It is said by some of the negroes of
this city that several hundred have
already gone somewhere, for they can
“miss some they know, and they firmly
iielieve that they are on their way” to
Africa. Monday night the Africa negroes
gave a supper, and the anti-Africa
nugroes held a meeting across the street
from the place where the Africa negroes
were eating pork and greens.
The same night, one anti-Africa meet
ing was presided over by Rev. C. R. Car
ter, tile pastor of the Friendship Baptist
church. Both places were packed with
negroes who were interested in keeping
their friends here or helping them to
travel to Africa, where they think they
can live on the “fat of the land.” Carter
showed up in good style the folly of this
attempt to reach the dark continent for
the paltry sum of one dollar.
^ hile a large crowd was standing in
front of the place where the supper
was luting enjoyed an old Bister came
from the anti meeting and exclaimed:
“Deni air jack legged preachers can say
what dey want, but bless my soul I’s
g« ine to Africa, and I’sr agwine right
dis yere nite.” A great many more
joined in the chorus and if it hadn’t lieen
for more cooler-headed men, no doubt
the early sunrise of this morning would
have seen the old black sister and her
young counting cross-ties for the father
land. One of tlie men said that lie had
been divinely commissioned in a dream
to rise up and go to Africa to rid it of
the anacondas and Luacoustrictors.
When asked how they expected to get
back to Africa on the small sum of $1,
they seemed perplexed. One man, how
ever, came to their rescue by saying,
Peek A White, the leaders of this move
ment, said the ships had come from
Africa ballasted with pig iron for Ameri
can markets, hut were now lying in har
bor awaiting the arrival of enough At
lanta darkies to ballast them.
The negroes are very much excited
over these emigrant agents, and very
little work can lie gotten out of them
until they get rid of this foolish idea of
going to Alrica for $1. Another meet
ing in the interest of the trip will be held
next Thursday night.
On Friday morning they will leave for
Savannah, from where they will sail for
Africa.
The exodus is causing a most pro
found sensation among the negroes of
Atlanta.
Alxmt 400 negroes at Chattanooga,
Tciin., have paid $1 each to an agent
who tells them that for that sum they
can obtain passage from Augusta, Ga.,
to the Congo free state in Africa.
Atlanta, Nov. 26.—[Special.]—The
anti bar room bill was knocked out in
the Senate today.
To all intents and purposes if. is dead,
and the hopes of its supporters are
crushed. Similar bills will, however,
be pushed in the House. There is a
strong lobby of prohibitionists at work
and the indications are that any prohi
bition measure can he put through the
House. The Senate is the stumbling
block and today’s fight shows that the
Senate is satisfied with the present

I have just returned from a visit to

Atlanta, Nov. 25.—Dr. Hugh Hagan,
out; of Um- most scientific youmr physi
cians in tile city, sent sometime ago to
Vienna and Berlin for the remedy for
consumption, which is said to be a pre
ventive and cure.
Dr. Hagan says it may be several
weeks before he receives the lymph, and
when he does he will inoculate any one
who is willing to have the exjieriment
tried upon them.
“1 have seen nothing new in the medi
cal journals,” says Dr. Hagan, “about
tlie effects of the inoculation, and just
:is soon as anything happens it will be
telegraphed to this couutry, and we will
know all about it.”
The effect of the treatment is to pro
duce drowsiness and a collapse, and then
tlie patient revives.

STARVING TO DEATH,
The Terrible Destitution In Ireland Con
tinues.
London, Nov. 25.—The news that a
fund is l>eing raised for the famine dis-
iricts of Irelaud by the Catholic clergy
< if A merioa hoe aroused much interest
here in political circles, and is regarded
as a direct rebuke to the Irish National
league and its programme in America.
A story of acute destitution has been
received from the Island of Achiil in the
west of Irelaud, where the potato crop
is utterly exhausted, and stormy weather
prevents the people from fishing.
lu one of the cabins on the island,
new born babe perished through the
luutliers being unable to give it nourish-
li. nt. owing to her own starving con
dition.
At Shull, iu southwest Ireland, people
:ire absolutely starving, and the work
house is unable to accommodate appli
cants for relieL
Messrs. Dillon and O’Brien spoke in
Cleveland, O., Mondy night, and secured
$3,000 for the Irish fund.
When the bill came up this morning
Senator Todd, its author, made a speech
in its favor and presented a petition 125
yards long to give emphasis to his
words. This, he said, was signed by
people of 74 counties of the State
There wasn’t much of a discussion over
the measure, Senator Walker making
the motion to iudeftnitely postpone.
This was carried by 21 to 1G.
An interesting little breeze in the
Senate was that over the bill which
passed the House yesterday, that which
its author claims isagaiust the lawyers.
When it was read Senator Callaway
made an effort to get it referred to the
General Judiciary Confmitte, and Sena
tor B-i&rd wanted It to go to the Gener
al Agricultural. It was a fight between
the farmers and the lawyers, and the
farmers won. By a vote of 17 to 15 the
hill was sent to the Agricultural Com
mittee.
The Senate confirmed the appoint
ment of Young Tnomas as solicitor of
the city court of Valdosta, the opposi
tion to his appointment being with
drawn.
Important-
In a good speech there are two things
important, One is the beginning and
the other is the end. The nearer the
beginning is to the end as a general
thing the better and more satisfactory
the speech. There are two important
things to be considered, when buying
watches, diamonds grid jewelry. One is
to get a good article; the other is at an
honest price. Both will be guaranteed
satisfactory at Skiff the Jeweler’s.
ANDERSONVILLE PRISON
Bought By a Company and to Be
Turned Into a Park.
Americus Times.
The old stockade is now the property
of E. S. Jones, Post G. A. R.. ot Ma
con.
Commander I. D. Crawford came
down from Macon yesterday and paid
over the last of the purchase money
and received the deeds to the land, lie
was accompanied by Capt. J. M. Bry
ant, keeper of the National Cemetery
at Andersonville, who is also a member
of the Join s Post.
The land was under several mortga
ges which were held by long loan com
panies. Yesterday the last money was
sent to the Corbin Loan and Banking
Company and the Jones Post got the
title to the property all legally convey
ed and perfectly secure.
The purchase includes 80 acres of the
stockade and the fort surrounding this,
inclosed by a driveway 100 feet wide,
and the right-of-way for an avenue fad
ing from the depot to the place.
The driveway and the avenue will be
graded and macadamized and the other
portion of the property will lie converted
into a beautiful park w J th serpentine
drives and walvs, pretty fountains here
am! there, and betls elegantly laid oil'
and covered with the rarest of trees,
shrubs and flowers. On the highest
hill, and in the center of the properly
will be erected a magnificent club house
for the use of the members of the 0. A.
R., the E. S. Jones Post, and their
friends.
Each point of special interest will be
marked by some suitable building, or a
statue which will tell the story of the
spoton which it stands. At Providence
Spring, a large amphitheatre will l-e
erected and it is probable that a portion
of the decoration day exercises will be
held there.

Stole His Turkey.—Mr. Moore, a
prosperous farmer of Clarke county,
was in the city yesterday with a fine
collection of turkeys, fine and luseious,
and just the thing'for a thanksgiving
dinner. He had disposed of all except
one extra fine fellow, which he sold to
a merchant down on Broad street. He
sold the turkey by description, having
left the bird in his wagon near the
Episcopal church. After receiving the
monev he went to ,get it, when to
his infinite astonishment it had van
ished. Some darkey’s soul will hound
with delight as the fragrant flavor of
luscious turkey meat rises up like in
cense tp his nostrils.

Mr John Bray, a loyal Allianceman
from Oglethorpe, was in the city yes
terday.
We are glad to hear that Mr. Geo. W.
Napi'-r. of the Wajton News, is much
hotter and in a fair way to recovery.
I STROLLED OUT THERE,
real good man. His name was Pansley—
Flinton Pansley. He has done business
in most all the towns of the northwest.
Entering a place quietly and even meek
ly, with a letter to the local pastor, he
began reaching out his little social ten
drils by sighing over the lost and un
done condition of mankind. After re
gretting the condition in which he had
found God’s vineyard, he would rent a
store and sell goods at a sacrifice, but
when the sacrifice was being offered np'
a close observer would discover that Mr.
Pansley was not in it.
In this way he would build up quits
a trade, only sparing a little time each
day in which to retire to his closet and
sob over the altogether godless condition
in which he had found man. He would
then make an assignment.
Pardon me for again referring to thfl
matter, but I do so utterly without mal
ice and in connection with the unparal
leled growth of my property here. So if
the gentle and rather attractive reader
will excuse a had pen and some plain
stationery, as my own crested writing
paper is in uay trunk, which is now in
the possession of a well known hotel
man whose name is suppressed on ac
count of his family, I will refer again
briefly to the property and the circum
stances surrounding its purchase. I had
intended to put a good fence around it
ere this, but with these peculiar circum
stances surrounding it I feel that it is
safe from intrusion.
The property was sold to my wife by
Mr. Pansley at a sacrifice, but when the
burnt offering had ascended, and the
atmosphere had cleared, and the ashes
on the altar had been blown aside, the
suspender buttons of Mr, Pansley were
not there. He had taken his bright red
markdown figures and a letter to his
future pastor and gone to another town.
He is now selling groceries. From town
lots to groceries is, to a versatile man, a
very small stride. Ho is in business in
St. Paul, and that has given Minneapolis
quite a little spurt of prosperity.
We exchanged a cottage for city lots
unimproved, as I said in a former letter,
and got Mr. Pansley to do it for us.
My wife gave him her carriage for act
ing in that capacity. She was sorry 6he
could not do more for him, because he
was a man who had found his fellow
man in such r.n undone condition every
where and had been trying ever since
to do him np.
Tlie property lies about half way be
tween the West hotel and the open polar
i sea, and is in a good neighborhood look
ing south; at least, it was the other day
when I left it. It lies all over the north-
| west, resembling in that respect the man
, we bought it of.
! Mr. Pansley took the carriage, also the
: wrench with which 1 was wont to take
| off the nuts thereof and grease it on Sab-
i bath mornings. We still go to church,
but we walk. Occasionally Mr. Pansley
whirls by us and his dust and debris fall
upon my freshly ironed and neat linen
coat as he passes by us with a sigh.
He said once that he did not care for
money if he only could let in the glad
sunlight of the gospel upon the heathen.
“Why," 1 exclaimed, “why do yon
wish to let in the glad sunlight of the
gospel upon the heathen?’
“Alas!” he said, brushing away a tear '
with the corner of a gray shawl which
he wore, and wiping his bright, piercing j
nose on the top rail of my fence, “so t
tiiat they would not go to hell, Mr. Nye.”
“And do you think that the heathen t
who knows nothing of God will go to ;
hell, or has been going to hell for say ten |
thousand years without having seen a
daily paper or a Testament?*
“Ido. Millions of ignorant people in
yet undiscovered lauds are going to hell
daily without the knowledge of God.”
With that he turned away and conceal eq
his emotion in his shawl, while his whole
frame shook. “But even if he shoald
escape by reason of his ignorance we
cannot escape the responsibility of shed
ding the light of the gospel upon his
opaque soul,” said he.
So I gave him $3 to assist the poor
heathen to a place where he may share
the welcome of a cordial and eternal
damnation along with the more educated
and refined classes. Whether the heathen
will ever appreciate it or not I cannot
tell at this moment. Lately I have had
a little ray of fear that he might not,
and along with that fear, like a beam
of sunshine, comes the blessed hope that
possibly something may have happened
to the $2, and that mayhap it did not
get there.
1 went up to see the property with
which my wife had been endowed by
the generous foresight of Mr. Pansley,
the heathen’s friend. I had seen the
place before, but not in the autumn.
I think that the property looks better
in the antnmn even than it does in
spring. The autumn leaves are falling.
Also the prices on this piece of property.
It would be a good time to buy it now.
Also a good time to sell. I shall add
nothing because it has been associated
with me. That will cut no figure, for it
has not been associated with me for so
very long or so very intimately.
The place, with advertising and the
free use of capital, could he made a beau
tiful rural resort, or it could be fenced
off tastily into a cheap, commodious
place in which to store bears for market.
But it has grown. It is wider, it seems
to me, and there is less to obstruct the
view. As soon as commutation or din
ing trains are put on between Minneap
olis and Sitka a good many pupils will
live on my property and go to school at
Sitka.
Trade is quiet in that quarter at pres
ent, however, and traffic is practically at
a standstill/ A good many people have
written to me asking about my subdi
vision and how various branches of in
dustry would thrive there. Having in
an unguarded moment used the stamps,
l hasten to say that they would be pre
mature in going there now, unless in
pursuit of rabbits, which are extremely
prevalent just now.
Trade is very dull, and a first or even
second national hank here in my sub
division of the United States would find
itself practically out of a job. A good
newspaper, if properly conducted, could
have some fun and get a good man}' ad
vertisements by swapping kind words
and regular catalogue prices for goods.
But a theatre would not pay. I write
this for the use of a man who has just
written to know if a good opera house
with folding seats would pay a fair in
vestment on capital. No. it would not.
L will be fair and honest. Smarting as
I do yet under the cruel injustice ijoce
me by the meek and gentle grocery-
man, who, while he wept upon my cor
rugated bosom with one hand, softly re
moved my pelt with the ether and sprin
kled Chili sauce all over pie, I will not
betray my own friends. liven with my
still bleeding carcass quivering under
the Halford sauce of Mr. Pansley, the
“sldn” and hypocrite, the friend of the
far distant savage and the foe of those
who are his unfortunate neighbors, 1
will not betray even a stranger. Though
I have used his postage stamp, I will
not be false to him. An opera house
this fall would be premature. Most
everybody’s dates are hooked, anyhow.
We could not get Francis Wilson or
Nat C. Goodwin or Rosina Vokes or Ed
win Booth or Mr. Jefferson, for they
are all too busy turning people away,
and 1 would hate to open with James
Owen O’Connor or any other mechan
ical appliance.
No. Wait another year at least. At
present an opera house in my subdivision
to the solar system would he as useless
as a Dull Thud in the state of New York.
One drawback to the immediate pros
perity of the place is that commutation
rates so far are yet in their infancy.
Eighty-seven and one-lialf cents per ride
on trains which run only on Tuesdays
and Fridays is not sufficient compensa
tion for the long and lonely walk and
the paucity of some suitable cottages
when one gets there.
So I will sell the dear old place, with
all its associations and the good will of
a thriving young frog conservatory, at
the buyer’s own prices. As I say, there
