A fearful calamity happened to an excur

Wednesday. While returning to the city
with over six hundred passengers on board,

ascertained.
The revised Testament is creating the most

The National Board of Health, in pursuing
their investigations, give out the following
statistics that may be interesting to some of
our readers : Nine diseases are given as the
chief causes of death. They are consumption,

ing cough and small pox. Of these the lung
i diseases arc the most fatal.
Just before the adjournment of the Senate
Messrs. Conkling and Platt, the two Senators
representing the State of New York, sent in
their resignation to Gov. Cornell, of New York.
They assigned as a cause for this action the
fact that President Garfield had sent to the
Senate for confirmation as Collector of the
port of New York the name of Judge Robert
son, a man who was unfriendly to them and
whose appointment would be obnoxious to
the Republicans of that State ; that they had
urged the President to withdraw the name,
but lie would not do so, and that they saw no
alternative left but to appeal to the Legisla
ture of their State for an approval or con
demnation of their course. This i3 about the
substance of the cause assigned for their
unusual conduct. The matter has excited
considerable comment on both sides. Most
people regard the action as purile in the ex
treme, and censure the Senators for what
seems to have been hasty and inconsiderate
action. Others think that Conkling considered
well his course, and will be sure to win in the
contest.
Our readers will remember that a little over
a year ago the newspapers were teeming with
news in regard to the gigantic railroad com
bination then being perfected by the magic
hand of Col. Cole, the President of the Nash
ville & Chattanooga Railroad. The system
embraced the principal roads of Georgia, ar.d
was to accomplish wonders. Hardly had we
ceased wondering at the magnitude of the
enterprise, when lo! it was stated that Col.
Cole’s own friends had shorn him of his
power, and since then but little has been heard
of him. We are pleased to state that he is
to the front again with a project equally as
great, if not greater, than the first one. He
has formed a syndicate in New York, with a
capital of sixteen millions of dollars, for the
purpose of buying up Southern railroads. He
has for this syndicate bought a controlling
interest in the Memphis <fc Charlston, East
Tennessee, Virginia and Georgia railroads,
also the lease of the Macon & Brunswick
road. This road he will extend to Atlanta
at once, and will then build a road from
Atlanta to Rome, and from thence connect
with his other roads near Chattanooga. It
will be a big thing for Georgia in more than
one respect.
The United States Senate adjourned last
week sine die. After the resignations of
Messrs. Conkling and Platt and the decision
of the Republicans to no longer obstruct
public business, it did not take the body long
to attend to the business of the executive
session. All of the President’s nominations
were acted upon favorably, with the exception
of Win. E. CLandler,-who had been nominated
for Solicitor General. It is said that he was
defeated by the Democrats. Stanley Mat
thews, of great notoriety during the consuma
tion of the Ilayes fraud, was confirmed as one
of the Judges of the United States Supreme
Court. It is said that he is a good lawyer,
but then you know he is a partisan, and not
overburdened with honesty. The bone of
contention between Boss Conkling and the
President—Judge Robertson—was confirmed
without any trouble. Your Uncle Joe kept
on scoring points even up to the last moment
of the session. 11 is last was in the shape of
an amendment to a resolution asking for in
formation in regard to the number, &c., of
the clerks of the various departments. Your
Uncle Joe amended by sticking in the words,
“ also, color of the various employes.” This
is the way lie gets up facts for his speeches.
The Democrats are highly elated over their
triumph, while it is said that the Republicans
admit that the prolongation of the session
has utterly failed for the purpose for which
they intended it, and has weakened their
party before the people.
“I Don’t Want that Stuff,”
Is what a lady of Boston said to her husband
when he brought home some medicine to cure
her of sick headache and neuralgia which had
made her miserable for fourteen years. At
the first attack thereafter, it was administered
to her with such good results, that she con
tinued its use until cured, and made 60
enthusiastic in its praise, that she induced
twenty-two of the best families in her circle
to adopt it as their regular family medicine.
That “ stuff’ is Hop Bitters.— Standard.

AN UNWISE POLICY.
We mean this idea of economy that gets i
into every legislator's bones just as soon as
he gets elected to the House or Senate ; it
has been the rule ever since the adoption of
the new Constitution. The idea seems to
strike them that the only way to get re-elect
ed is to object to every plan or enterprise
I that will take a dollar out of the public purse.
And upon this kind of a record they go Lome
and ask to be returned, when, if some of their
votes could be exhibited in their true light,
they would not get enough votes to elect them
bailiff of a militia district.
Let us take the immigration vote of the
last Legislature as an example. Our legisla
tors created the office of State Immigration
Agent, but attached no salary to it, and gave
no money for expenses ; in fact, as they sup
posed, killed the matter too dead to skin.
The gentleman appointed to the office has, at
his own expense, worked up the matter until
now there is a possibility of Georgia’s being
benefited by the office that her legislators
supposed they had killed in its creation.
Suppose this officer had been backed by any
means, what would have been the result ? If
lie can accomplish a little good with no
means, just figure up what lie could have done
with a small appropriation. It is stated upon
authority that over seventy thousand people
came to this country through the port of New
York last month, with the intention of seek
ing homes in this country. Say that they did
! not have over five dollars apiece, this would
make the handsome sum of three hundred
and fifty thousand dollars. Say we could,
? with an expenditure of five or ten thousand
j dollars, turn half the arrivals in one month to
: Georgia, would it not be a paying invest
! ment ?
But what wc more particularly desire to
call the attention of our readers to in this
article, is the importance of having a branch
Lunatic Asylum, or additions made to the
old one at MilleJgeville, at the earliest prac
ticable moment. There is no immediate show
of a money return from this expenditure by
the State, and were it so we would not, in
asking the people to look after this matter,
appeal to the sordid part of their nature, for
in this matter a higher obligation than a
monied one rests upon the citizens of this
commonwealth ; a duty which cannot be shift
ed from our shoulders without a fearful re
sponsibility being left behind.
But, to come down to facts, within the last
two weeks we have had confined within the
walls of our common jail two young men in
the prime of life, who have been affected with
a mild form of insanity, and in each instance
the confinement has aggravated their cases
so as to make them violent and unmanage
able. Suppose they could have been carried
to some place for proper treatment as soon
as they were adjudged lunatics, is it not
reasonable to suppose that they would have
been benefited ? But, instead of this humane
method being adopted, one that smacks more
of a barbarous people is used—he is carried
to a loathsome cell, locked up like a common
felon, and his whole surroundings tend to
destroy the last lingering spark of reason ;
his mind becomes as dark as the dungeon he
occupies. And there he lies until a vacancy
occurs in the overcrowded Asylum at Mil
ledgeville. If he has not, in the meantime,
died from exposure and the want of proper
treatment, he is carried off with no possibil
ity of his ever recovering* We are speaking
facts, artd can give instances, the relation of
which ought to make a Georgian ashamed of
himself and an enlightened community blush.
At the same time, we do not mean to say, or
intimate, that the treatment of these unfortu
nate people has been worse in this county
than others, for here it has been the best that
could be devised under the circumstances.
Our jail was not made to keep lunatics in,
and our jailor has not the appliances nor the
skill that is required of a keeper of a lunatic
asylum. We have no doubt but what the
same trouble can be found in every other
county in Georgia, and we blame nobody for
it but the legislators. It has been a notori
ous fact for years that the Asylum was crowd
ed, but no steps were taken to remedy the
matter. It is true, at the last session of the
present Legislature the matter was talked of,
but the election of United States Senator and
other important officers interfered ; they did
not care how many poor devils lost their rea
son by their neglect.
When the Legislature meets in July, we
want to see this matter provided for just as
soon as possible, and we will take great
pleasure in announcing the fact that the ad
ditional buildings arc in course of erection
before the session adjourns. Our citizens
all over the State should demand tips of their
Representatives, and censure them ifthev do
not attend to it.
A correspondent ofthc Cochran Enterprise,
writing from Gum Swamp, reports a most dis
tressing occurrence which took place in that
neighborhood a few days ago. Mrs. Tiny Gar
rett told her daughter to go and cook dinner,
and the young lady refused to do so. Her
mother told her if she did not go at once she
would make her father whip her when he came
to dinner, and so one word brought on another
until they got up a general row, and the daugh
ter got the shot-gun and fired on her mother,
the whole load, which contained fifteen buck
shot, peeling off the top of her head, and
lodging in the door facing. When the daugh
ter found she had not accomplished her desire
of’killing her mother she tried the other
barrel, but her little brother knocked up the
gun in tigie to save his mother’s life. When
Mr. G. came to the house he so severely
whipped the daughter that it is thought im
possible for her to get over it, and there is a
probability of botli mother and daughter
dying. Mr. G. is a well to do farmer of
Laurens county, and is highly respected by
all who knew him. His wife and daughter
are both members of the Methodist church,
and staud as fair as anybody,

Albany Neivs and Advertiser : “No rain

enough rain has fallen in this vicinity to wet
the ground. The gardens are as dty as ash
beds, and the vegetables are in many instances
parched to a crisp.”
Bainbridge Democrat: “ For three weeks a
fierce sun’s withering rays have-fallen upon
us. Our gardens are utterly ruined. Our cis
terns are empty, and water is our cry. The
drouth has ruined the oat crop, and corn is be
ginning to suffer. The ground is too hard for
ploughing. Saturday partial raina fell around
us, scarcely a drop reaching the town.”
It is reported that on Thursday night Albert
Smith, who was in jail at Washington charged
with the murder of Teasdale Callaway in
March, knocked the jailor down as he was
taking his supper to him, and, after shooting
at the jailor once or twice, made his escape.
His trial was to have come off in June. The
Sheriff arrested Hackney, the jailor, and put
him in jail.
Correspondence Augusta Chronicle: “All
crops in Jefferson county are backward. The
corn crop is very poor. Early planted cotton
is up and doing well, but a considerable
amount has not come up, nor will it until rain
falls in this section. A number of fields not
planted at all has been noticed. Considerable
rain has fallen in some sections, while in others
no rain has fallen in a month. The dry weatlu r
has ruined vegetables and oats. Provisions
are scarce, but money is more so.”
“ We learn,” says the Columbus Enquirer-
Stm, “ that farmers of the grand old county of
Talbot are progressing favorably with their
work, owing to the pleasant weather of the
past ten days. Cotton planting will be through
in a few days, and with might and main every'
effort will be directed to the harvesting of the
largest crop that has been made since the war
in that section of the State. The wheat and
oat prospect is indeed flattering, and with the
exception of the peach crop, which will be
very slim, everything tends to better times in
the future.”
Says the Amerieus Recorder: “We learn
from our country friends that the wheat crop
is particularly fine out in the direction ofElla
ville. Mr. John Howell reports his as the finest
he has ever had. Mr. Howell has been farming
twenty years ; it must, therefore, be exception
ally good. He says it is waist high, and has
shed its bloom, this condition placing it out
side of the risk and within the point of safety.
His corn, lie sa3’s, is half-leg high and growing
rapidly. This is good news, and if it is univer
sal in this county and section, will be glad tid
ings to every man, woman and child, and to all
domestic amimals.”
Sumter Republican: “We learn that Mr.
Tom Morgan, of Sumter county, lias a patch
of oats that will yield him one hundred bush
els to the acre. This may seem an exaggera
tion, in view of the fact that our county has
been suffering for rain for throe or four weeks.
Those who are competent judges affirm that,
if tiie season had been propitious, he would
have made one hundred and fifty bushels per
acre. We have heard that many of our farm
ers are cutting oats, and, in most cases, all of
them have made enough to do them. This
will break into the hay business at $1.75
and $2.25 per hundred pounds. That is very
good.”
A special to the Constitution from Suwanee
says that n Friday morning fire was dis
covered between the storehouse of E. 11.
Cheek and J. G. King and continued to spread
until every store in town was consumed. The
losses were as follows: 8. 11. Cheek, store
house, dwelling and stock, loss $7,000, no in
surance ; J. C. King, loss $4,200, insurance,
$2,250 ; J. T. lfrown, loss S3OO, no insurance ;
E. S. &J. B. Brogdon, loss supposed to be
covered by insurance ; W. E. Holcomb, store
house and dwelling, loss covered by in
surance ; D. ll.'Bow, loss $3,000, no insurance.
The origin of the fire was evidently the work
of an incendiary.
The Brunswick Advertiser and Appeal re
ports that an exciting case was tried there
last week. It appeared that the Macon and
Brunswick Railroad tendered one J.T. Taylor,
of Atlanta, ns Journal Clerk of the Senate, an
annual pass over the road. Mr. M. Benjamin,
a merchant of Atlanta, bought this annual
pass of Taylor and came to Brunswick on it.
Conductor Dick Harris, learning that the
holder of the ticket was named Benjamin and
not Taylor, demanded the fare for the 1 1 ip,
and also the delivery of the ticket. Benjami i
refused to comply with Harris* request, and
Harris, after consulting the railroad attorneys
and agent at Brunswick, sued out a warrant
for Benjamin, charging him with cheating
and swindling. The Justice bound him over,
and he went before the County Court on
Wednesday, was tried and found guilty, and
sentenced to pay a fine of twenty dollars and
costs, or work on the city chain gang for the
space of sixty days.

AN OLD SAYING
TELLS US THAT NOTHING SUCCEEDS LIKE SUCCESS!!
VERY TRUE; BUT WHAT MADE THE
SUCCESS?
Men shake their heads now-a-days, and say- the big stores are eating up the little ones. But what
made the big stores big? They were all “ little ones” once. Ten years ago we occupied what
would be called at present a very small store. To-day we devote

Enormous G-rowtli ?
Certainly not possession of an}’- secrets of business ; certainly not advertising, though that has con
tributed its share ; certainly not our location. There is only one explanation :
Tireless Industry and Pleasing the Public.
