The public are already aware of the
fact that the Western & Atlantic Rail
road has been leased by Gov. Bullock,
under an Act of the lu*t Legislature
at and for the price of $25,000, per
month, for twenty years to come.—
The bond has been given, and the
road formally turned over to the Les
sees, who are now in possession; and
for the next two decades they will be
its proprietors. The Lessees mention
ed in the deed of Lease, are: John P.
King, of Augusta, Ga., Joseph E.
Brown, of Atlanta, Ga., B. H. Hid, of
Athens, Ga., William 8. Holt, of Mu
cou, Ga., Win. B. Johnston, of Macon,
Ga., Andrew J. While, of Macon, Ga.,
Jno. J. Grant, Walton, Cos., Ga., Wm.
C. Jiorrill, Macon, Ga., Charles A.
Nutting, Macon, Ga., Duncan Camer
on, Harrisburgh, Pa., Jno. S. Delano,
Mount Vernon Ohio., Wm. T. Wai
tress, Baltimore, Md., Thomas A. Scott,
Philadelphia, Pa., H. I Kimball, At
lanta, Ga., E. W. Cole, Nashville,
Tenn., Richard Peters, Atlanta, Ga.,
George Cook, New Haven, Con., H.
B. Plant, Augusta, Ga., Ben May, Co
lumbus, Ga., Ezekiel 1 Lartzfelder, New
York City, Thomas Allen, St. • Louis
Missouri, and William B. Dinsmore
of New York. The deed was signed
by the Governor on the 27th of De
cember, last. The Bond is given, in
the sum of eight millionn of dollars, by
the above mentioned persons as les
sees and Stockholders; and tho Geor
gia Railroad & Banking Company, the
South Western Railroad Company, the
Macon & Western Railroad Company,
the Atlanta & West Point Railroad
Company, the Macon A Brunswick
Railroad Company, the Brunswick A
Albany Railroad Company, of the
State of Georgia; the Nashville &
Chattaooga Railroad Company, of the
State of Tennessee, and the St. Louis
& Iron Mountain Railroad Company,
of the State of Missouri, axe sureties
to the Bond. The lessees met in the
city of Atlanta, on the 10th day of
January, 1871, for permanent organi
zation, and elected as officers of the
road, for the ensuing year, the follow
ing gentlemen:
Joseph E. Brown, President of the
Compauy; E. W. Cole, General Su
perintendent; Robt. H. Smith, Treas
urer, and E. G. Cttbiniss, Auditor.
The Company is strong, and the
Board able, experienced and fully pre
pared for their work. The past histo
ry of these officers is their endorsement
for the discharge of their trust, and*
we nave no doubt, that they will make
the investment highly profitable to the
stockholders. The people of Georgia
have always taken great pride in, and
set a greet value upon their State
Road, and had it always been manag
ed prudently and honorably, it would
have shown that their regard for it
was not misplaced. They have been
always opposed to its sale or to its
lease, believing that it might be made,
not only, the great thoroughfare of
North-western and Western trade,
coming South, but such a source of
income, us would carry on the State
Government without taxation of tho
people. It has, however, in this latter
regard, failed to meet their expecta
tions. Its revenues being either wast
ed, squandered or embezzeffed, Stiiu the
road, itself, made an engine of the
greatest political corruption, and con
stant contention, the public mind, at
last, came to the cone.usidn that, un
der all tho circumstances, tun best
iiiing which could possibly be clone,:
wnid be try dispose of it by leased
This has been done, and so far as
we remember, met, at the time, with
the very general approbation of the
people. Much now is sai lby way of
objection and dissatisf ictiixri, and yet
we verily believe that should the whole
affair be annulled and se- aside, the
people would be el a morons for some
similar disposition of the road. We
take no part with the various contend
ing parties for the lease of the road,
and have no word of censure to throw
upon the gentlemen who have become
its lessees.
They are business men, railroad
men, and are qualified to put a just es
timate upon the value of the rental of
the road, and to operate it. Many of
them have grown gray in the service
of the country, and by common con
sent, are meu of marked ability and
good character. Under the lead of
Gov. Brown, they made a fair, honest
bid for the road, saying they would
give so much and no more, and they
have fairly and honestly obtained the
lease so far as we know, or have heard.
Other parties could have come in, and
made their bids, and offered their se
curities, and had the same opportunity
to purchase as themselves, perhaps
did so; but if Brown & Cos., have suc
ceeded in obtaining the prize over all
others, we do not see why they should
be censured because they were success
ful. The rent may be small, perhaps
it is, and we think it is! but no
company could bo found to under
tuke it without a large margin for
profits.
We believe that Gov. Brown, whose
executive aud administrative ability is
unquestioned, will make the lease a
success, and that the State will receive
her dues according to the contract.
As mentioned in our former issue >
we capitally question the right to
pledge the railroads as security for the
company, and do not believe that such
security is binding on the Stockhold
ers of those roads, and is not, there
fore, good to the State.
This is the only material point of
objection that we, at present, find to
the proceeding. We desire a success
ful running of the road, profif for the
lessees, and prompt payment to the
State, which we have no doubt will be
the case.

fields were red with blood, and the
carnage fearful; 15000 French had
fallen before 5 o’clock, and the French
army retreated. Gen. Ohausey is re

Reduce Ymir Cotton Crop.
To resume—We say that the South
ern planter can make more money,
have less trouble aiid anxiety, r< duce
the price of labor, and keep up the
price of cotton, improve his i mds
raise an abundance of grain and stock,
aud make himself and the South inde
pendent of all other people, and in
sfiort, become happy aud prosperous.
But to do this, the quantity of land
planted, aud the amount of cotton
raised for market, must be very large
ly reduced. The proposition is suscep
tible of the easiest demonstration, and
we beg all of our planters who may
think upon this subject to give it a
careful examination, and if coriect, to
insist everywhere, by precept aud ex
ample, that some such course, as is
herein indicated, shall be adopted aud
rigidly enforced ull over the Southern
land. If so, the days of our pecuniary
redemption draws nigh, and our long
faces and loau purses will vanish,
our merchants sustained, our religious
aud literary institutions established
and advanced, and anxious c ire for
the future banished. We have already
said that any and every planter will
tell you that this year he has made
little or nothing on the year’s opera
tions. This is the case, just here in
our midst, in the garden spot of Geor
gia. Withiu a few days past, we have
oral and written testimony of the con
dition of things in Middle and South
West Georgia, aud the picture pre
sented is of the most serious and dis
tressing character. All over those fa
mous cotton reg.ons of the State, while
the product of the cotton field, has
been excellent, (mark this) the crop
gathered and sold in market, has fail
ed to equal the cost of its production;
the cotton has gone, for the most part,
to Brunswick, Macon, Savannah, Au
gusta and New York, to the ware
housemen and holders of cor ton re
ceipts, to meet advances made to the
farmer on producing it; the cotton, it
is said, is gone and going, and the
farmer, after paying for his labor, most
ly in advance, has left in band no
means by which he can pay his honest
debts at home, either to tiis n ighbors,
or the country merchants, and what is
quite as bad, with no cash on hand to
buy supplies, or prepare for the incom
ing year's crop. Old, substantial mer
chants, who, for a quarter of a centu
ry, were always prompt in meeting
their New York debts, are now asking
some of them an extension of their
notes for three, six and nine months,
from absolute inability to pay, caused
by the failure of the planners to dis
charge their obligations to them. —
Nearly all over that country, this state
of things exists, and also in other
States. In former times before the
war, we gave all our money /or the
negro; now we give all our money to
the negro. The negro is paid his wa
ges, aud may have some money left;
the planter has seen his money pass
out of his hands to warehousemen and
cotton factors, and has none left.—
The case, perhaps, is not so bad in this
portion of Georgia, and we are thank
ful for it, but it remains nevertheless
true, that those who cultivate their
lands with hired labor, have very little
of cash, either to spend or with whicli
to pay tneir debts.
What’s the matter? Why, simply'
this, as we have already endeavored to
show, that the large quantity of cotton
raised has depreciated the price, and
brought it down to the price of pro
duction, while the large number of
hands required to produce it, has in
creased the price of labor, arid made
such farmers the mere dependents of
the negro laborer. Reduce the quan
tity of colton planted, and you in
crease the price of the staple, reduce
the quantity, and you dispense with
the necessity of so much labor, by one
half, at least, and the result is also,
that your labor will be more easily
procured and at far less cost. This,
we insist is true, and if so, that man
who will still continue his old course
of farming, is acting directly in the face
of fact, intelligence, an personal inter
est, and tne interest of tho whole coun
try at the South.

A jreat Truth. — A correspondent
of the Cincinnati Commercial (Republi
can) wrote as follows from Georgia just
before the election:
“A thought strikes me in regard to
the ‘leading Georgia Republicans’ that
we hear so much about. How many
are there ? If the negro element was
stricken out, the whole party in this
State would be leaders. According to
the number of whites iu the party, the
number of white leaders, office-hold •
eis and politicians is enormous. Iu all
my traveling and experience in ueor
gia, I have never met a white Republi
can who was not an office-holder, or
who had not bein in office since the
war. The whole animus of the white
portion of the party seems to be to get
office. If they can’t get office there is
a row. lam sorry that it is so, but
any amount of sorrow will no alter a
fact.”
This Radical correspondent was
“sorry for it;” but bdng that rare thing
in his party, a candid man, he takes
the bile off his stomach by a compre
hensive purge. —Augusta Constitution

Cotton in California. — The San
Francisco Bulletin gives what it terms
a remarkable communication from Col.
John L. Strong, who has come to Cali
foruia from the South to eng tge in
cotton culture, on the strength of ex
periments made by his brother near
SheMiug, iu Merced county It will be
seen, says the Bulletin, that the Snel
ling crop afforded the astonishing yield
of 5,850 pounds per acre, and Col nel
Strong assumes that au average yield
of 500 pounds of lint cotton per acre
can be confidently predicted. At this
raie, according to his calculatioi s,
which are made on a reasonable basis,
20 acres of land cultivated to cotton in
California, under the right conditions,
will pay more than double the profit
to be ordinarily realized from 100 acres
cultivated to wheat. Iu previous com
munications Col. Strong has shown
that owing to our dry climate, which is
unfavorable to the growth, of weeds.
cotton can be cultivated at a much less
expense than in the South, where the
frequent summer rains necesitate nu
merous hoeing*. Although 20 acres
cultivated to cotton will give employ
ment to the same quantity of labor
employed on a wheat held of 100 acres,
and for double the time, the cost, at
the California rates of white labor, still
leaves the wide margin of profit sta
ted.

Bits for Horses.
The Rural World 8 ys: “One of the
crnelest things done to *he dumb beasts
is putting hard frozen iron bits into a
horse’s nioutli. It is not on y a pain
ful, but a dangerous act. For every
time living flesh touches metal below
the freezing point, the latter extracts
the heat from the former and freezes
it. Thus a horse’s mouth becomes fro
zen by the cold iron several times a
day put mto it; each time causing the
freezing to go deeper, to end at last in
extensive ulceration. With such a
sore mouth the poor horse refuses to
eat. and pines away, which calis the
horse doctor in. They call it botts,
glanders, horse ails, etc., and go to
cramming dowu poisonous drugs, in
doses; and the next thing you know of
the poor abused creature,he is trotted
off to be food for tish and crows
Many a valuable horse has been ‘mys
teiiously’ lost in that way. Thinking
and human people avoid this by first
warming the Luis; by this is m.ich
trouble and sometimes imposible, asm
night work, like staging and physicians
work. Now, all this trouble is entire
ly avoided, us we have founded on
large filial, by getting the harness ma
kers to get leather bits for winter use,
so made that no metal substance can
touch the flesh.
