ARMY REDUCED.
A bill lias Just passed both House* of
Congress reducing the army to 20,000 men.
In tlieso days of financial stringency, hard
times and heavily taxed people, we think
it is time that our government should so
far as practicable be freed from the useless
incubus of a large standing army. There
is no danger of hostilities from any source.
All our foreign relations arc of the most
amicable nature, and so far as domestic
trouble and a re-enactment of internecine
strife is concerned, we trust and believe
that it is gone forever. Our people are
happily plying the arts of peace, and should
not be taxed to support the long pay roll
list while those that are on it could be made
producers.
What our country needs is to be freed
from all “dead beats,” and that the many
who make nothing remain no longer a bur
den on the toiling few. Another good
feature of the bill is the fact that the army
can not be used as a posse eomitaius with
out special authority of Congress. The
tendency of large standing armies in times
of peace, unless under great restraint, is
to destroy liberty, and even under the
checks here in our country,the army has
been the means of working great mischief.
J)e jure governments have been overthrown
in order that governments de facto might
be reared in their stead. At the nod or
beck of a disappointed candidate a swarm
of bristling bayonets have greeted the
gaze of orderly citizens. We are glad
that Congress is to have something to say
about the matter before an army is to' be
turned loose upon law-abiding people.
PUBLIC OPINION CHANGING.
From the general tone of the press it is
very manifest that public opinion is crys
tal izing in favor of a complete and thor
ough investigation of the Electoral frauds.
Speaker Randall has been receiving general
congratulations on account of his appoint
ments of the individuals that compose the
select committee of eleven, and indeed we
think that the make-up of this most im
portant committee in the history of our
Government indicates that full and com
plete justice will bo done. The lion.
Clarkson Potter is Chairman of the com
mittee, and it consists of six Democrats
and five Republicans. From this fact the
committee is entirely freed from mere par
tisan features. The American people have
been dissatisfied, they have felt that a great
wrong has been perpetrated, and have
grown sick at a party zeal, that will tram
ple constitutions and sacred rights under
feet, for the sake of subserving party ends.
There is a deep-seated and wide-spread
public sentiment that it is high time we
should calmly survey the situation and if
possible condemn the fraud that has shaken
our government from sea to Sea ; and if un
checked may entirely swallow it up in its
mighty vortex. A rigid and searching in
vestion by a committee, selected for their
special fitness for the work and indiscrimi
nately tnken from the ranks of both poli
tical parties, will doubtless tend to quiet
the restive feeling and enable the people to
know what bloivs have been inflicted on
their rights.
THE KEYSTONE STATE.
The State of Pennsylvania has opened the
political campaign in deadly earnest. The
Republicans have nominated for Governor
lion. A. A. Hoyt, and the Democratic
, party have put in the field lion. Andrew
!ij. Dill, of Union. He is a man of mark
eu ability, a lawyer and about 12 years
oldi, lie was decidedly the choice of the
convention and his nomination was made
unanimous. At the close of the conven
tion liY delivered a ringing speech, and a
grand okation greeted him on his return to
Union, Ins home. The ball is thus fairly
opened. ai: l we trust that the “ Keystone”
banner may be carried to victory ; for it is
an old adage among public men, “As
goes Pennsylvania so goes the Presidential
election.”
OUR TRIP TO ATLANTA.
Dr. Skelton accompanied us to Toecoa.
On our way wo stopped at Mr. James Mos
ley’s, in the neighborhood of Oustanalla.
Mr. Mosley has just moved into his new
dwelling, a neat and comfortable building
situated in a beautiful grove. We under
stand there is to be a depot at some point
near Mr. Mosley’s and Dr. Underwood's
on the E. A. It. R.
Toccoa has improved very much since
wc were there last. Many new houses
have been erected. The business houses
are having a quiet time now, but the mer
chants seem happy in the expectation of a
good trade next fall. Toccoa is a favorite
summer resort, ami a large number of visi
tors are expected there this summer.
Had a delightful ride over the Air l.ine
to Atlanta. This is indeed a splendid road,
well equipped and furnished with the tinest
cars of any road in the South. Chester
held himself would not have made a more
polite conductor than those employed on
the road. All the comforts and conveni
ences offered on any road are found on the
Airline. There is not a better managed
road anywhera. The company is mdead
fortunate in securing tha sorvtoM of W. J.
Houston as General Ticket Agsnt and G.
J. Foreacre, General Manager. The Air
Line can beat the world for mineral springs.
There is hardly a station without its min
eral springs, and not one destitute of some
interest to the tourist and pleasure seeker.
If the Elberton Air Line R. R., w ill only
prove as great a developer, what a glorious
country we will have 1
In Atlanta wc found the General Con
ference of the M. E. Church still in session,
tho largest body of eminent divines we
ever saw. The Bishops came entirely up
to our expectation. Shall not comment or
particularize, as the papers generally have
had proceedings, etc. The Conference ad
journed Friday, 24th May, to meet first
Wednesday in May, 1882, at Nashville,
Tcnn.
New Disciplines will soon be published,
and then everybody can see the changes
for themselves.
I put up at the Kimball House, where a
great many of tho “ big guns ” were stop
ping. Had the pleasure, one day, of eating
at the same table with Bishop Pierce and
the venerable Dr. I.ovick Pierce.
I had one great consolation, viz : that
although I couldn't say as mauy good
things as those surrounding me, I could
put as many of 'em down (when it came to
eating) as anybody in the room. What 1
lacked in language I made up in appetite.
Sunday morning, wc dropped into the
First M. E. Church early, and were sur
prised to find ourselves in the midst of an
old-fashioned class meeting. It was re
freshing to hear some of the brethren of
the great city relate their experiences.
They too, have their ups and downs, as
well as their times of refreshment. In
deed the love of Christ is the same every
where, and it is pleasant to know that He
is no respecter of persons, but bestows
his blessings alike upon the low and high,
rich and poor.
The first Methodist Church is the finest
in the South, it is said. It is elegantly fin
ished inside and presents a fine appearance
from the outside. Sixty thousand dollars
ought to build a good church.
We visited Rev. W. P. Smith and family.
They arc very comfortably situated. Mrs.
Smith’s health is still improving, we arc
glad to say. The children have advan
tages of fine schools. The one to which
they go numbers four hundred pupils.
There is a college in Atlanta for colored
people, and some of them arc making good
use of it. Some of the darkies are giving
attention to music. We passed a shanty
from which cams tremendous sounds of an
orgnn accompanied by a strong feminine
voice, and it was not bird to discover the
performer as we passed opposite the win
dow where she sat triumphant.
We visited Ponce DeLeon springs—ade
lightful place to rest and get cool. Atlan
ta could not get along at all now without
these Springs, and we guess the street rail
way company would vote heavily against
their removal. It is amusing to see the
lads and lasses as they carry on their little
flirtations there. Some of the older people
are not a whit behind in putting on airs
and piling on the agony’. Saw one old
chap with his dulcinea, somewhat past
sweet sixteen , taking on at a desperate rate
and we took the lady to be a widow. She
was so innocent and knew so little of the
common affairs of life. Still was so eager
to learn from her gallant escort. If she
had been a maiden of her age she could
have taught him. Indeed nothing would
have been impossible with her. from man
aging a spoiled child up to running a first
class government—say the United States.
Excursions are now the order of the day
in Atlanta. Every day there are going out
picnics, barbacues, etc. Why should we
wonder when there are so many places of
interest in North Georgia to visit and such
good facilities as Atlanta affords, with her
various railroads, for doing it.
The reta|l business in Atlanta seems
flourishing just now, but the wholesale
trade is, we think, pretty dull. Perhaps a
few advertisements would help out. Any
way we have the promise of several later
in the season so as to attract fall trade. A
heavy trade is not desirable just now until
crop prospects are more fully developed.
We like the Atlanta people, they are so
clever ; extremely so, when it is to their
interest.
There every dog wags his own tail and
every man blows his own horn. All seem
determined that Atlanta shall be the place.
Atlanta lias many things to recommend
her, but it is not entirely without faults.
One of the most prominent objections is
the reverence paid men of wealth. Asa
general thing all a fellow needs there to
make him a big man is money. That will
do it. If the pile is large no matter what
his politics or religion. lsig men have
privileges that small ones would not dare
tako.
As you sec, we are at home again, not
withstanding the dangers encountered on
the trip. None of the big fellows attempt
ed to cat us up. Perhaps they thought wc
would be hard to digest—rather bony you
know. E. It. B.
McDuffie Journal: A younger sister of
Mrs. Sothern is now serving a term of
four years, having been convicted as acces
sory "to the same crime, but her punish
ment is comparatively light. Through the j
humanity of Col. T. J. Smith, of Wash
ington county, who has a number of con
victs under contract with the State, she
has been taken into his family as a house j
servant.
We trust Mrs Sothern will receive the]
same lenient treatment, and that before
the end of the year, or anyhow, before the
expiration of his term of office, our worthy !
Governor will further illustrate his pro-,
verbial humanity, and Christian charity
and mercy by granting a full and free par
don to both of these unfortunate women.
THE BAYANHAH RIVER.
Ttom of Oa* Who Knows Every Foot of
the River from Antferaoaville to
Aosuolo.
Editor!! The Suit: I tee Mr. Stephen*
has introduced a bill looking to the improve
ment of the navigation of the upper Sa
vannah River.
This is a vital subject with me. Having
been raised on the river, navigating it from
the mountains to the sea, l atn experiment
ally familiar with the inefficiency of the
present carrying trade over its waters.
The little pole boats have faithfully
served the people along this river for sixty
years, but for the long trip to Augusta
their day is past. Progress has supplanted
them—human muscle has to succumb to
steam whenever brought into contact with
it, and the time is already here when, if
we would continue the use of this lino ot
transportation, if we would maintain our
own markets and arrest the tendency to di
rect the commerce of this valley into other
channels, we must substitute the boatman’s
pole with the engine wheel.
Mr. Stephens’ hill asking for an appro
priation to have a survey made secins to
insinuate that the feasibility ot the project
is doubtful; and just here we would say
that it is to he feared he will not put Aiough
energy in the bill to push it through. But
it is a wise measure, and, if successful, will
always be a monument to his honor and
statesmanship.
So, let all the friends to this enteprise he
assured that the cost of opening the river
from Augusta to the foot of Trotter Shoals,
a distance of 65 miles, will he quite small
when compared to the extent of the busi
ness that will he done. Over two-thirds of
the way is now already open and will not
require any work done, while much of the
remaining part w ill require but little work.
Is this item alone not highly suggestive of
feasibility—of economy?
But we want our hills, thirty miles above
Petersburg, to resound the shrill voice of
the steam water horse, and wc think its
easy and economic navigation to this point
will insure an extension of the line at some
time. For the present we would he satis
fied to sec the work begun, expecting it to
reach Petersburg only. Meeting with
steamers at this point, the demand of the
carrying trade would remand the pole boats
hack to former service, and they could
throw the cotton of the upper valley and
hill regions into this place with astonishing
efficiency. It would insure the extension
ol the Elberton & Toccoa lload to this point
and thus become a very important feeder.
In fine, it would do more for the city of
Augusta than its most sanguine friends are
aware of.
But what will it do for the people along
up this valley and on the ridges whose in
terests are concerned, and in whose inter
est lam writing chiefly ? It will fix the
local trade in their own hands, which lias
been wrested from them through sheer
want of cheap transportation and carried
to the interior, as though some great power
was set to work to equalize what nature
has made unequal.
The wealth of countries and communi
ties is mainly found in their commercial
marts and business places. The business
makes, or at least avails of the wealth, and
the people of this section will certainly not
surrender this heritage that inures to them
from the abundance of their agriculture.
If we will look squarely into the matter
wc will find that our present condition is
not so good neither in finances norm other
surroundings that make people happy as
many oilier localities far less favored. We
have a country lying along the river, both
sides, containing 3,000 square miles of rich
alluvial bottom and fertile high lands that
cannot boast a respectable village, scarcely;
that cannot afford a high grade school, nor
can show hut few well improved homes.
This unhappy situation—this stand still
and even retrograde condition, is not be
cause of a diminutive production of agri
culture ; it is not because the farmers are
slovenly ami unthrifty. The want of cheap
transportation has made them to rely ex
clusively upon their agriculture; and rich
as this is, it cannot fix and retain its own
profit except in connection with diversified
industries. The trouble is, wc arc too ex
clusively agricultural, rendered so by not
being in easy and cheap connection with
the markets of the world.
Give this people this facility, and with
their wonted energy and shrewd business
endowments, this strip of country will
soon he adorned with villages, churches,
high schools, and many happy homes.
This writer has not the money to build a
railroad, nor open the river for the steam
boat, which is the best and most economic
of the two, but he has the faith to believe
that this new order of things—cheap trans
portation, diversified industries, the hand
ling of our own commerce, the profits on
which accruing to our own people—will
bring about a very high degree of pros
perity. llaut.
Narrow-Gouge Steamers.
Editors ok The Sun : I have not heard
anything of that appropriation of Congress
lately for clearing the obstructions out of
the Savannah river, but have not lost all
hope, and think at the next session of Con
gress, when the Hayes and Tilden embrog
lio will have been settled, that our repre
sentative will be able to get a good appro
priation for that purpose. I would be
pleased to take the contract myself for
one million dollars to put the river in fine
condition for the navigation of first-class
narrow-guage steamers, and to furnish
three steamers for the line to Anderson
villc, S. C., and will give the inmates of
the Hart County Poor House as surety for
the faithful performance of the work. The
people along the line should keep constant
ly agitating the plausibility and great ad
vantages of the project. If the people
along the line are too poor to do anything
else they could get out the cross tics for
the short ranals around the shoals. Noth
ing like big speeches and big dinners to
accomplish great enterprises. I am hungry
right now. Sanouine.
Letter from Burke.
Waynesboro, Ga., May 22, 1878.
Dear SUN : I thought I would drop you
a note from this old borough, to let you
and your readers know how matters are
progressing in this port of the world.
They have a large commodious brick court
house, well ventilated, and provided with
a bar well arranged with tables and chairs
for the accommodation of the legal frater
nity. There are comfortable churches and
a good school, two brick stores and a num
ber of wooden ones. Quite an extensive
business is done here for a country town
under the shadow of Augusta. If you
should ask one of the citizens the number
of inhabitants he would probably answer
a thousand or twelve hundred, but. judg
ing from the size of the place, one would
guess seven or eight hundred at most.
People ore very apt to overestimate the
number of inhabitants in a town or village.
The Superior Court is in session, and
Judge Gibson is grinding out justice with
as much good nature as it is possible for
one under such circumstances to have.
There is enough business on the dockets to
keep the Court in session at least two
weeks, and perhaps longer.
Col. M., the very efficient agent of the
Chronicle Constitutionalist , is here in
the interest of his paper, and when he gets
after you with his genial smile to subscribe
for it, you had better succumb at once and
do like the girl did her beau, marry him to
get rid of him. Ido not mean for any one,
particularly if he is a man, to marry the
Col., but to take his paper.
You would conclude that this was a rc
i markably health}’ section from the height
and dimensions of some of the men which
you meet on the streets. Occasionally
j you meet a man who is almost deserving
j the name of giant. There is a good deal
I of fever in some localities, but the people
j say it rarely kills.
The farmers here arc discussing crops as
well as elsewhere. They say the crop is
in better condition than they have ever
known it at this season of the year. Some
were boasting they had “ squares ” two
weeks ago, but the cotton generally is
small : they mean by its being in a better
! condition that it is cleaner and better
worked.
The wheat and oats arc almost a failure,
j ft has been entirely too dry for the cereals.
In some places the fall oats have done well
: and the spring oats failed, in others it is
just the reverse. A larger grain crop than
usual has been planted. These people like
corn bread (so they say), and they gener
ally eat it.
You might safely say that fishing was
the favorite amusement of the people.
Every man and his wife is fond of angling
for the finny tribe. They tell wonderful
stories about their success, but whenever
I go with these skilled fishermen, the river
is just a little too muddy, or a little too
clear—a little too full or not quite full
enough ; or it is the wrong time of the
moon. Y’ou may tell your blacksmiths
who seem to be fond of the sport, that
just before the full moon is the time to
rake them. They catch fish here as well
as plant vegetables in the moon.
I wish you could come down and stroll
with me along the borders of some of our
streams, and see the trees covered with
their long drapery of moss, and enjoy the
sight and perfume of the large magnolias,
covered in rich profusion with their large
white flowers hanging temptingly above
your head. Y r et it is a rare thing to sec a
magnolia cultivated.
If I continue to ramble on in this style,
I will weary both you and your readers.
I will conclude by saying that we have had
a fine “ season ” recently and the crops
and grass are spreading themselves. With
my best wishes for the success which your
spicy paper merits, I am as ever, D.
PEN AND SCISSORS.
Carnesville has a daily mail from Toccoa.
So much for having a Bell that chimes in
Congress.
The McDuffie Journal says “A. 11.
Stephens’ very presence in Washington,
yes. even his familiar crutch, leaning
against his vacant chair is the embodiment
of eloquence, intellect and patriotism.”
In this section of Georgia we don't wor
ship old clothes or crutches.
The McDuffie Journal of the 29th of
May says of A. 11. Stephens :
llis very name is a “ tower of strength ”
to any cause he may espouse, and a few
words from his lips carry with them to the
Northern heart more weight than the com
bined eloquence of the entire Southern del
egation !”
Oh, for the spirit of Patrick Henry to
breath upon our poor stupid Southern
Congressmen ! But again, would it not be
better for the Eighth District to have its in
terest represented than that of the North
ern States ? From the past history of the
Republic, the North has been fully able to
take care of itself.
