GKO no IA KKWS. Gleanings and Win now lugs from our Slate Exchanges. But one Idle negro in Talbotton. Amerieus is calling for more houses. Burglars are ransacking houses in Au gusta. Wool is selling for 28 cents ]>er pound in Dublin. Atlanta is now reaching out for a lire alarm telegraph. And now Amerieus has caught the brass band fever. Hon. James M. Smith cultivates a ten thou-Suid acre farm. An effort is on foot in Macon to organ ize a water works company. Spalding county farmers have reaped an abundant wheat harvest. it is stated that Conyers is to have a daily paper at an early day. A Savannah darkey filling for catfish caught a Newfoundland dog. Gen. James Longstreet is running the Piedmont hotel at Gainesville. The blackberry crop in the neighbor hood of Milledgeville is a failure. Major Furlow, of Amerieus, has a peach orchard containing 3,000 trees. Two families in Griffin claim to have fallen heir to $80,000,000 in England. A colored girl committed suicide by drowning, in Columbus, the other day. Cattle arc dying in Butts county and the disease is said to be yellow murrain. There is much opposition in Savannah to the proposed extension of the city lim its. Atlanta has three ice factories, and still “she can’t always sometimes’’keep cool. Joe Anderson, of Pulaski, harvests this season 120 bushels of wheat from eight acres. Several citizens of Atlanta are protest ing against the destruction of the “heav en” tree. A l>oy named Tom Kent was drowned while bathing, near Columbus, a few days ago. Baldwin county proposes to build a Howe truss bridge across the Oconee, at a cost of $5,200. We understand an effort is on foot to build anew Chatholie church without delay in Sandersyille. The blackberry crop is a short one in this state, and many of our exchanges are lamenting the fact very bitterly. The town of Sumpter was recently vis ited by a severe hail storm. Some of the stones are reported to have been as large as hen eggs. Dr. Powel, superintendant of the luna tic asylum, says: “Insanity is evidently on the increase in Georgia and through out the country. J. J. Kozarone day last week sold 1,400 pounds of wool at JO cents, in Eastman, and Dr. James Buchan, of Dodge sells several thousand pounds. Mr. Elbert Cunarn, of Jasper county, made JJS bushels of wheat on twelve acres of land, which is an average of nearly 28 bushels per acre. Sandersville is boasting over a hen egg which measured eight inches in circum ference the long way, six inches and a half around and weighed four ounces. Augusta had a serious cutting scrape recently. Major Spinks and Phillip Kel ly, two young men, had a light and Kel ly was badly cut. He is not expected to recover. Athens want her court house nearer the centre of the town. The building now stands on the edge of Cobham and four or live blocks from the business por tion of the city. The capacity of the lunatic asylum is for 700 patients. There are now 750 pa tionto in the institution, aiui tins liumoer has been crowded in by using the parlors and recreation porticos. Cornelius B. Luekie, of Columbus, has been declared insane and sentto the luna tic asylum. This is the thrid time that he has been placed in that institution in a comparatively short time. Dr. 11. P. Ridon, of Forsyth, is in fa vor of building a second institution for the insane in the northern part of the state, lie will present the matter at the next meeting of the legislature. The canal steamer, Wallace Wheless, of Augusta, while on an excursion Mon day sunk from being overloaded. Au gusta is happy at the idea of her canal be ing big enough to sink a steamer. Mr. Lewis Lump, of Amerieus, plant ed one bushel of Irish potatoes in March last and has been eating off' them ever since they began to bear, and says he has forty bushels left, lie is opposed to hid ing his light under a bushel. The little sou of ‘Mr. E. A. Dubose of Early county, who was carelessly shot a few days ago by a son of Mr. Jas. S. Gar ret of the same county, died on Saturday. Young Garret was playing with a shot gun at the time of the accident. The Northeastern Progress , referring to the power of juries to recommend to mercy in capital cases, says: \Let the voice of the people, as the" voice of one man, go up for the repeal of the law mak ing this change in regard to murderers.” Monroe Advertiser: “On the 10th inst., we learn, a young man named Thomas Grubb, son of the sheriff* of Jasper coun ty, shot and instantly killed a negro, name unknown. The young man had whipped deceased wife and for it the de ceased tried to kill him with a hoe.” The West Point Press tells of a negro woman in that town a few days since, who is gradually turning white. Her face is already white, though her hands are black. It is said that her mother ex perienred the same change, and the cause of the phenomenon is thought to be a cu taneous affection. James Everett, locoinotive'‘engineer on the Western and Atlantic railroad was brought to Atlanta last week in a state of insanity, lie left that morning in charge of his engine attached to a freight train, but when near Adairsville his fireman discovered that he was out of his mind. It is a singular fact that the engineer for whom Everett used to be fireman is now in the insane asylum. Another engineer on this road became insane a few' years ago, but died soon after. Colonel Frobel says it is 138 miles by the Chattahoochee river from the Wes tern and Atlantic railroad bridge to West Point, and thence 30 miles to Columbus. A four foot channel, he thinks, can be arranged easier than most people think. Georgia, Alabama and Florida are equal ly interested, and they have six senators and twenty-two representatives. He thinks they ought to get SIOO,OOO from congress next December, when the river and harbor bill is perfected. He has carefully examined 30 miles of the dis tance. He urges the people ta take action and get up petitions. Bishop Beckwith, Rev. Dr. Tucker, Dr. J. P. Logan and Dr. V. If. Taliafai ro, all eminent scientist, having succeed ed in waking up the city fathers of Atlan ta to vigorous efforts to protect the health of that city. The “tree of heaven” is to be cut down, anew and efficient board of health established, one hundred dollars per month expended in disinfecting the streets, sewer traps are to be put in, old sewers improved and new ones built, strict sanitary police regulations enforced and other means resorted to for the pur l>ose of saving Atlanta from epidemic dis ease-. This work has been demanded by impending dangers. TO TIIK NORTH POLE. San Francisco Call, Jnne 8. Lieut. George W. De Long, U. S. X.. who is in command of the Bennett Arc tic expedition, arrived at the Palace yes terday morning. He stated to a repre sentative of the Call last evening that the Jeannette was nearly ready for sea, and he hoped to get away by the 20th of the present month. He expressed himself as being somewhat in doubt as to the pas sage through Behring straits of Prof. Xordenskjold in the Vega. He hopes that the cablegrams to that effect are cor rect, but fears they are not. C'apt. Bar ker, a resident of this city, who w r as wrecked on East Cape in the fall of 1875, and remained among the natives during the winter, says that in February of each year the ice moves to the northward from the shore. Taking this in view, Lieut. De Long thinks that Nordensjold may have succeeded in getting out as re ported. James Gordon Bennett will probably not come out here prior to the sailing of the Jeannette. The navy de partment has not as yet designated any vessel as a convoy to the expedition, but it is probable that the Alaska will be se lected for that purpose. J. C. Morrison, of New Pork, has brought out most of the crew, and there now remains but seven man to be selected for the expedi tion. The pay for seamen is $25 per month —for tirpmen S3O per month. The following named have been already en rolled and signed the articles for the ex pedition: Wm. Dunbar, ice pilot, a na tive of New London, Connecticut; Wal ter Low, machinist; Herbert Leach, of Boston, seaman ; August Goertz, of the North of Germany, seaman; G. W. Boyd, an American, coal passer; Adolph Drurien, of Berlin, seaman; Henry Wil son, ft Swede, seaman; P. E. Pohnson, a Swede, seaman; Edward Starr, a Ger man, seaman; John Londerback, a Ger man, coal passer; L. Menir, an Ameri can, seaman. The Jeannette is pro nounced to be in superb condition, and Lieut. De Long looks forward with confidence to a successful result to the expedition. DEATH OF THE PRINCE IMPERIAL. London, June 11).—A Reuter dispatch from Copctown dated June 3 via Madeira, to-day, states that Prince Louis Napoleon, prince imperial of France, accompanied by other officers, left Colonel Woods’ camp to reconnoitre. The party dis mounted in a mealie field, when the ene my crept upon them and. killed the prince with assegais, llis body was re covered . Napoleon Eugene Louis Jean Joseph Bonaparte was born in the Tuilleries, on the 15th of March, 1856, and was there fore twenty-three years old at the time of his death. He was educated with great care, and on the outbreak of the Franco- German war accompanied his father to. Metz, and thence to Saarbruek, where, according to Napoleon’s dispatch to Eu genie, he received his baptism of fire. His youth and effeminate appearance were much ridiculed by the Germans, who,' in derision, gave him the name of Lulu. When the military situation be came critical, the prince was sent to Bel gium for safety, and subsequently joined his mother in England. There he en tered the training school at Woolwich and made quite an impression his re markable intellectual gilts and his win ning manners. He was extremely pop ular with the English, and when he em barked for South Africa had quite a promising future before him. Ilis death will cause grief in England as in France, and will demoralize the Bonapartists who regarded him as the leader and head of their faction. The Times' correspondent writing from Itelezi Hill on the 2d inst, says the body of the prince imperial was discovered in a field of long grass. There were no bullet wounds upon it but seventeen Wfmiwla moflp liy tin-note. The body was round stripped and the clothes had been taken away. The Telegraph's dispatch from Cape town June 3 says the news of the death of the prince imperial cast a gloom over the city. All Hags were Hying at half mast. It is stated that there is a great commo tion among the mormons over the con viction and sentence of George Reynolds for polygamy, and Mr. Cannon, the del egate from Utah, is doing all he can to influence Hayes and his cabinet in the prisoner’s favor and procure his pardon. It is urged that inasmuch as Reynolds offered himself as a test case for the pur pose of thus determining the constitu tionality of the law of 1802 against poly gamous marriages in the territories, and of his own accord furnished all the evi dence on which the indictment was found, he ought not to be punished for voluntarily facilitating the judicial de cision of a doubtful questioh. Mr. Rey nolds would hardly have offered himself as a sacrifice, knowing beforehand that lie was to be made a victim of the law’s vengeance. As it is, the St. Louis Pepub lican says the matter has created an in tensity of bad feeling that threatens to complicate the relations of the govern ment with the territories more seriously than ever, unless Mr. Hayes should see lit to interpose his pardoning power. The fare from Kansas City to Chicago, about 700 miles, or to St. Louis, about 400 miles, Yvas reduced recently to fifty cents by the Hannibal and St. Joe and the Missouri Pacific railroads. Then the St. Louis, Kansas City and Northern road foilowed suit and the Chicago and Alton went still lower. By night just as train time came the price went to five cents, and as an extra inducement people buying tickets were given each an order on a saloon for a glass of beer. To beat the rest entirely the Chicago and Alton finally offered free rides. Anew grievance has cropped out in England from the abolition of purchase in the army. Among the officers Avho fell at Island ula were eight of the twenty fourth regiment, Yvho.se commissions rep resented an investment of £13,500. Ob viously these officers fought and died for their country under greater disadvan tages than their post-purchase comrades, and a movement is afoot to secure to their widows and children the value of their commissions which they bought with their-own money, and Yvhich Avere made unsalable by no fault of theirs. “A gentleman,” says Prof. B F. Fan ning, with becoming severeity, “never dances Yvith his overcoat on.” And Yve may add that he hardly ’ever dances Avith his overshoes on, and the instances, in the best society, in which a gentleman has danced through an entire set with his ulster druYvn closely over his head, his trousers stuffed in the legs of his india rubber hunting boots, and an umbrella held over his head are rare, indeed. So ciety cannot feel too grateful to the pro fessor for mentioning this little matter of etiquette. The jury in the Hearn-Duel* ease have brought in a verdict of manslaughter against Miss Lillie Duer. They either could not be made to believe that it was chloral that caused Miss Hearn’s death, or at any rate they very sensibly con cluded that if she had not been shot she would not have died. The chloral theory, however, induced them to sign a recom mendation for mercy. The sale of four per cent, certificates lack only eighty-seven thousand three hundred and eighty dollars of reaching the grand total of forty millions. TROUBLE FOR THE COLORED EMI GRANTS. The negro emigrants who sailed, last Saturday, for Liberia, on the bark .Mon rovia, got to sea just in time to escape some unpleasant news. A letter, inst re ceived from an officer on the United States flag ship Ticonderoga, now in port at Monrovia, says that the Greboes and other native tribes on the Liberian coast have formed an alliance for the purpose ot driving the American Africans from the country. They will improve the first favorable opportunity to begin aggres sions. The presence of an American man-of-war at Monrovia, if not the only preventive, is an important factor in warding oft such a catastrophe. The Ti conderago has just returned from a visit to that part of the coast inhabited by the Grebo and Tabou tribes, and Commodore Shufeldt had an interview with their kings and head men. He pointed out to them that the American emigrants must remain where they are, and told them that they would be protected in their new homes by the American government. He told them he had hoped a more friend ly feeling would grow up between the aborgines and the emigrants which, as they were of the same race, would be to their mutual advantage. It is said that the existing unfriendly feeling is in. a great degree the fault of the emigrants themselves. Going to Africa, as most of them do, from the southern part of the United States, they assume the air of su periority and the tone of authority to ward the aborigines which they fancy be coming between the superior and "inte rior. The Greboes are the most power ful native tribe in Liberia. They regard the emigrants as interlopers, aiid deny the right of the Liberian republic to the sovereignity of the soil, claiming that the land never had been and never can be purchased from their people. —Chicago Times' New York Special. Sam. Hill, who was convicted of the murder of Simmons in the Atlanta supe rior court, prefaced his statement as fol lows : “I arise with a broken heart to speak of a woman I worship. If I vary one inch from the truth, may God Almighty strike me dead in my track where I stand.” After giving his account of the shooting he said: “Gentlemen, I loved my wife, and I love her now. I killed Simmons because he invaded the sanctity of my home. I have no excuse to offer. If this was wrong, hang me. I will die like a man. It is with you to decide. I love my wife better than my life. Our life was one long honeymoon. I do not ask sympathy, but only justice. The Frandin farm, in Red River coim to, thirty-five miles north of Fargo, con tains 08,000 acres, of which 40,000 are devoted to wheat culture. The faun has a telephone on it, with four miles of wire, and an elevator with a capacity of 50,000 bushels. The Dalrymple farm, twenty miles west of Fargo, embraces a tract of four miles square, 10,240 acres. Last year the crop of.wheat was 111,033 bush els, "at the rate of nearly twenty-two bushels to the acre, the oats and barley raised amounting to 25,000 bushels. The late visit of the Crown Prince of Sweden and Norway to England, and his reception by the German empress, is sup posed to have been connected with a de sire on the part of his highness to sue for the hand of Queen Victoria’s granddaugh-: ter, Princess Victoria, of Baden. The mother of the grand duke of Baden hav ing been a daughter ol King Gustavus Adolphus IV. of Sweden, such a union would introduce into the house of Ber nadotte a near descendant of the line of Vasa. A resident of Galena, Illinois, who has Deen in constant correspondence with General Grant during his travels abroad, has just received a letter from the ex president, dated at Hong Kong, on the 4th ult The general writes that he will reach Yokohama in August, and says: “I expect to remain on the Pacific coast tor some weeks, and then go to Galena and stay until cold weather. Where we will spend the winter we have not de termined. We may go to Florida and Havana.” The Ohio legislature has passed a bill for the punishment of tramps, which provides that “any person, not being in the county in which he usually lives or has his home, who is found going about begging and asking subsistence by chari ty, shall be taken and deemed to be a tramp.” This act. will be the means of keeping the poor and improvident of each county at home, rather than risk an imprisonment of one to three years, as the law provides. Following is the list of suprene judges recently elected in Illinois: First district, John H. Mulkey (dem.); second district, John Schofield (dem.); third district, John M. Scott (rep.); fourth district, Pinkney M. Walker (dem.); fifth dis trict, A. M. Craig (dem.); sixth district, Benjamin R. Sheldon (rep.); seventh district, T. Lyle Dickey (dem.) —five democrats and two republicans and eighteen democrats. Anew insurrection in Cuba is a grati fying end of the ill-starred peace of some inVnths ago. A few United States officials with blind eyes would greatly aid Cuba just now, with no violation of any right. Cuba is not Spain’s. Bayonets confer no title. It belong to ■Cubans to do Yvhat they will with it. Jen years Yvould make Cuba a thriving American state, with a thrifty American population filling it up and developing its resources. A lively row was lately produced in what is curiously called a “salvation fac tory,” at Leamington, England, when a citizen attempted to take home his daugh ter, because he objected to her being put through such a mill at late hours in the evening. He was set upon and violently assaulted by the assembled salvation man ufacturers. # A colored man, “raised” in Virginia, has taken out the first letters patent ever er granted to a negro in this country, re ceiving lor his invention first letters on May 18, 1878, and the second, April 8, 1873. Ills invention is a lire escape, very popular with department men Yvherever it has been seen, and already in practical employ in Pennsylvania. If yy'c may lielieve what we hear, the honored president of the Western <fc At lantic railroad, and ex-governor of the state of Georgia, commenced life by plowing with a bull calf. How many young men of the codfish aristocracy persuasion commence life rtow-a days in that way"? It was a German orator, who, wann ing with his subject, exclaimed: “There is no man or child in this vast assembly who has arrived at the age of fifty years that has not felt the truth of this mighty subject thundering through his mind for centuries.” The failure of the New York cotton house of It. B, Smith & Cos. involves also the house of R. B. Smith & Cos.. Boston. The liabilities, it is thought, will not ag gregate one hundred thousand dollars. General Negreta, of Mexico, lias issued a revolutionary proclamation. He has no followers, however, and the govern ment troops cannot find him. Bartow County Sheriff’*s Sales.
