The baby rolls upon the floor, kicks up its tiny feet, pokes its toes into its mouth, thus making both ends meet. , The new Chinese Minister brought with Jiiin, among other delicacies, a lot. of shark’s (ins, birds nest, rice brands and a kind of cake never seen by American ba kers. A country must lie pretty well- to-do tlmt con buy between eight and nine millions of diamonds a year, yet tlio extravagance of the United States lias readied that figure. That was the amount importations last year. The iiurcau of Statistics of t he Treasury develops the fuel tin there are twenty-two ports of entr in tlie United States where not dollar of custom duty was collect ed lust year, and thirty-two dis tricts in which the expenses excell the receipts. And yet all these mock ports have collectors and clerks on salary, with cxpcnslvi offices, flue furniture, a yacht, and a horse nnd line carriage prolu blv. i’uui.io Questions or Current interest receive attention in Tiik Ckntuiiy Magazine for .March Arthur G. Sedgwick contributes n pungent review of “The Copyright Negotiations," and Allen G. Camp- lieli, the contesting delegate from Utah, innkes, from the nnti-Mor ■non point or view, the pertinent query, "Has Utah a Republican Form of Government?” The foreign policy of the Government authors’ rights, and Oscar Wilde ns a social phenomenon, are dis cussed ill “Topics of the Time.” Ill this issuo we publish a letter from Americiis to the Atlanta l\nt-Appeal, giving the situation frsin the writer's standpoint, of |Hililicn! atliiirs in tliis congression al district. The writer is a gentle man of shrewd observation, is ev ideully'iin old liaud at the pen,and wishes to mould public opinion, living n comparative stranger, we arcjnot.well enough acquainted with tile political ufliiirs of this district to pass judgment upon the views of tlie Past-Appeal correspondent, and therefore give them for wlmt they aro worth. v The l’ilte County News gives some sensible advice on tlie sub ject of Americans producing their own vegetables instead of import ing them. Why need the people of tills eountry buy their Irish po tatoes across tlie waters when they can raise them ut a less cost ill their own native land ? That, peo ple must be most prosperous who produce for themselves tlie articles they conisume, especially when they have lands well adapted to such productions, and the sooner this fact is appreciated the better it will be for those interested. Correspondence Post-Appeal. Americus, Oa., Feu. 17 “What nbout politics us regards tlie Con gressional outlook in the Third?” asked your correspondent of a prominent citizen iicre to-day. “Oil, tlie election is rather too remote for tlmt question to bo agi tated ns yet.” “Hoiv is tlie Liberal movement in this section? Hus that party many udiicrcuts in the district?” “Well, I am one of the ‘organiz ed,’ lint I will be frank to say, witli some regret, that there arc not a few who have grown weary of tlie repented defeats in presiden tial elections, sick of the contempt witli which the Democracy is look ed upon at the North, and disgust ed with the silly nnd often unfair methods practiced at home, ami are ri,.e lor a change.'' ••Suppose some competent and good man should lie run on the Liberal platform us a candidate lor* Congressional honors, would lie be likely to command much of a fol lowing?” “I believe lie would. Most oi the colored people would he sure to vote for Jiim. and I believe he might reasonably expect support from a respectable number of while voters who have heretofore voted with the ‘organized’ Democracy.”- “Who will probably be the can didate put forward ns the Demo cratic nominee?” “There have been several men tioned. The names of Judge i’ute and Col. Kibliuu, of Huwkinsville, and Allen Fort and Judge Crisp, of Americiis, lm\e been suggested by their respective friends,” “Hut which of these do you the contemplated road from here to Eastman, or the Air-Line, which was once suggested from Savan nah to Montgomery, passing through Amcricus, they still confi dently look forward to some other competing line. think will rcully he the candidate?” The chances, I believe, are in luvor of Judge Crisp.” Wlmt are you going to do witli Gen. Cook, your present member? Will lie be retired?” I don’t think lie will offer for another re-election, as iic is now serving his third or fourth term. It is thought and hoped that lie will now come down and use his in fluence in hcliulf of Judge Crisp, who, you know, was formerly his law partner. 1 believe this will be tlie slate.” Hut bow will tliis ticket lie re garded by tlie counties cast of Flint river? Don’t tlie people over there claim tlmt they arc en titled to the next congressman?” “Ob, yes ! They will make some flglit, to be sure. Hut you remem ber they lmvo heretofore put up Col. Kibbcc as tlieir man, and !.v will run no race at ull. They haven’t an abler mail on tlieir side of tlie river, although Judge Fate is an honest, clever fellow, lie lacks lie ability of Col. Kibbcc. There fore it is quite likely we shall lmvo to furnish Gen. Cook's successor, and J udge Crisp is our best chance, (or Allen Fort lias nlcndy tried ami failed. Indeed there lias al ready come a call from I'ulaski county for Crisp, and 1 believe the llawkinsvillc Dispatch will sup- Itlin ” port him. “Will not the Hawkiijsville News antagonize the Dispatch, and favor some oilier man ?” “I am not prepared to answer lint question, lint would not lie surprised if the two papers oppose eneli other.” “You think, then, there is apt to lie a lively race and division in the Democratic ranks?” “1 anticipate all active campaign, and to tell tlie truth, I apprehend tlmt we will lie somewhat divided, for iinfortiiimtly tlie old party is be coming wore and more demoralized cry year.” From tills interview it will lie seen tlmt tlie future of the new Lib- si party looks bright and cheer ful, even in tliis section, where “or ganization,” caucuses and nomina tions have held such swa.v. There is evidently much disaffection springing up in the solid old Third, where Gen. Phil. Cook lias manag ed for several terms to manipulate tlie machine so successfully in his own bclmlf. Why it is so, I con fess I do not see, h|il tlie counties cast and west of Flint river are di vided in tlieir sentiments, mid each side wants to furnish the man to UEUUIXU THE QUESTION. If the Americus Recorder can show us tlmt cotton ties would sell in this country for less without protection than with it, we might admit tlmt the tariff goes into the pockets of the manufacturers; and still we should ask, “Isn’t it belter for capital to remain in this coun try than to go abroad ?— Warren- tan Clipper. There is very little use in an swering the Clipper, when it thus begs tlie question, for wiien we at tempt to show the Clipper, as we did liefore, that a protective tariff puts money into the pockets of tlie maiiulheturers instead of the public treasury, we are met witli tbcqueK- tion, “isn’t it better for tlie capi tal to remain in this country than go abroud f" To tliis latter ques tion wc would answer tlmt if capi tal is to be kept in this country on ly by massing it in tlie hands of a few men, and allowing those men to rob the balance of the communi ty, we can see no particular benefit to the people generally in having it remain in this country. If tlie Clipper had put its question in this shape—“Isn't it lietter to bo robbed by an American than Englishman?” it would have made its meaning plainer, for that is wlmt it amounts to, and Rro. Shivers virtually admits that protection tariff is rub bery. there are in Georgia twice as many readers of newspapers as there were two years ago. The value of a newspaper is uncalcuable. It' is both news gutherer and teacher, and it is impossible for any indi vidual to keep ordinary informed without its aid. Tlmt man is false to bis family and himself who docs not secure for bis home the bene fits arising from tlie regular visits of a good newspaper.” NEWSTORE. B, T.

JNT_EW FIRM! lloiirlmn Kiiow-Xolhings. The bourbon Democracy of Georgia, as represented by its lead ing journals, not only stands in tlie way of immigration by reason of notorious proscription practiced for political reasons, but preaciies know-iiotliingism,between the lines, certainly, but none the less reada ble to intelligent “importations.” Wlmt Georgia would have been but for tlie money and brains im ported into it is something these lar-secing individuals probably never stop to inquire. Tlie immi gration lias benefited tlie State in the past and is highly desirable in the future, need be considered in no wise a reflection oil native bom citizens. The slate of tilings exist in every State in tlie Union, and those tlmt throw open their doors widest to the would-be citizen are those tlmt show tlie largest need of prosperity.—Atlanta I’ost-Ap- peal. Tlie llourhoii Know-Xoitliing, as the Appeal is pleased to call them, have done ull -that there lias been done to invite immigration to tlie Stale. They have freed tlie State from plundering carpet-bag offi cials, brought order out of clmos, reduced tlie public debt, establish- cd free schools, inaugurated pub lic improvements, and made Goor- ia a desirable place in which to live. They have extended a cor dial invitation to’ the people of other States to come and help them develop tlieir wonderful resources, and supplemented tlie invitation with a cordial welcome to all who have come among them. Could tlie Liberals, whom tlie Appeal represents, have done more? If tlie Appeal hopes to induce immi gration by offering to place in of fice tlie immigrants, wc shall have tlie same class ol immigration that we Imd at tlie close of the war, and it will be followed by tlie same re sults.

Tlie Republican papers arc not altogether pleased with Mr. Arthur's snuhuing Dezcidorf, of Virginia, for Mabone. They com plain that Dezeldorf is an original Republican, and was one long be fore Malione proved a traitor to bis patty, and while lie was pre tending to be a blatant Democrat They do not like tlie idea of a gen uine Radical being shoved aside to make room for a galvanized one. It is further reported that Mr. Arthur's course in tlie Norfolk — _ delightful porters were prevented from voting : aml driving little city. There urc by intimidation or traud.

When the beautiful former Republican method of groves and shade trees dun tlieir VuU-inij majorities for Radical claimants, by counting voles which they said they ought to have gotten. The change is due to the strong Democratic minority in the House, and to the exhibition of a spring and summer garb tlie whole place will present an air of cheer fulness and comfort.
