A DEATH DEALER,
Dr. Gatling’s Invention for Making
- Ocean Warfare More Terrible,
Louisville Courier-Journal.]
NEw York, Jan. 25.—The Her
ald’s Hartford, Conn., special says :
I had a conversatien this afternoon
with Dr. Gatling, the inventor of
the Gatling machine gun, regard
ing his newly invented torpedo
boat. Pending final protection ot
his rights as a pantee, Dr. Gatling
was disinclined to give a detailed
description of bhis boat, but he for
tified his assertion that he had des
vised something at once cheap, sim
ple and eflective, by quoting from
letters trom naval officers of high
standine sabstai tiating everything
that he claimed. 1. Gatling
said ¢ i
“i have devised a iorpedo. boat
which I regard as morve cfectivo
and certain in action than any
Lerctofore invented. With it any
ironclad seeking to enter onr hap—
bors, or comin; to anchor for ine
stance in the lower New York bar,
could be quickly and casily destoy-
ed. The beat will be inexpensive
a 3 compared with other torpedo
boats, In an eimergency, tuz boats
of twenty-five to 100 tous could be
speedily converted into effective
torpedo boats. My chivice, howevs
er, would be iron ox steel boats,with
a speed of wot less than twenty
knots an hour.
‘ls speed one of the essentials of
your plan? I asked.
“The chief clements are speed,the
armament and the full protection
of the officers and men, and these
may all be readily combined. With
such a craft as 1 have designed, I
can put a torpe'o under any vessel
however prote. ted, despite the uts
most efforts ot the vessel to avoid
it. My boat will be propelled by
steam and will approach en iron
clad bow on presenting the least
surface to the guns of the ship, and
will be so protected that the shots
fived at her will have no effect.”
“What are your weapons of of
fense 1"
‘Making my boat as impregna
ble as possible, I resort for the de~|
struction of a hostile vessel in the |
use of high explosives, such as m-i
tro gelatine, dynamite, etc. My |
gystem may ve generally described |
as that of ‘controlled torpedoes,’i
which are under the absolute con-‘
trol of the officers on the boat dntil |
the indtant of explosion, My plan ‘
will drive # torpedo through any
net or othicf vrotection an ifon clad ‘
may bage and plase'it at the desired
pomt for explosion. In a short
time I shall bs fregared to give to
the public a detailed description of
wy plans, and I' am éatisfied that
the simplicity and economy of the
system will be seen 4t once, as well
a 8 ité efficiency” Sk
The Charleston Mergymen have
been diseussivie the question; ‘W Hat
will we do in Heaven? A Philu-l
delphia clergyman declares that the'
ehiurch is losing ground. If he i:,x‘
correct, hadp’t the Charleston cler- |
gyman better give more attention

‘. Public Roads,
———
The folloyiug from the Savnah
Neiws is well taken and is of the ut
most importauce to the people.
The cubject of public roalls is
underdiscussion injuorthern states.
The gover.ors of Pennsylvania and
Massachusetts called attentson to it
in their recent messages and it has
been taken up by the press of those
states and of New Jersey. Gov,
Beaver attributes the bad roads in
Pennsylvania to the went of sys
tem 1a the road laws, and the trou
ble in New Jersey seems to be iden
tieal with that in Pennsylvania.
Gov. Ames thinks that goods
roads could besecured eventually
in Massachusetts if a state road
commissioner {here appointed with
authority to inspect the roads, and
to make such suggestions to the leg
islatuse as he might think prop
er.
If, as he has been asserted, the
civilization of a country is indicat
ed by its publicroads, then civliz
ation has yot advanced very great
ly in Gexgia. The roads ot this
‘state are not kept in much better
‘condition than they were years ago.
%,Great improvements has been made
in them in some localities, but in
‘all of the counties there yet is a
very broad margin for improve~
ment. In fact, the roads generally
are about as bad as they cen be,
considering that they receive any
attention at all, The trouble is
not that we have not sufficsent road
laws to make good roads possible.
but that the laws are not enforced,
The work in most of the counties is
done during a few weeks of the
spring and fall, and it is vot well
done. The rim ot the overseers
seems to be to put the roads in such
condition ar barely cause the work
to he accepted hy the commission~
ers, and thdeomn i=sioners uve ap
parenily feud out that the grand
jurics do nothine more than to re
ommend iu thew genera! preseui
ments that in future wore utle.tion
Lo given o the ol 2
ihe subject of roads is one to
which the different Harmors’ Alli
ance ot the state wisht sive atten
tion, with entire proiit, No class
of peopie would be s, greatly Lene
fted by goods as farmers Good
roads would lessen the injury to
horses and mules and the wear and
tear of velicles and harness, and
they would facilitate trave! and
transportation, In addition they
whuld add very greatly to comfort.
By united action the tarmers might
doa great deal in this important
matter,
It is gratifiying to note that Geor
giaappears to be walking up om the
subject. Sevgral suggestions look
ing to goods roads have been made
latdly, One of them is that cone
vieis be put to work on the roads
in the counties in which they are
covvicted,and another is that spec
ial e unties taxes for road purposs
be levied, so that a road force. un-~
der a competent commissioner, may
be kept at work throughout the
year. Objections have been
urged to both plans, bLut
it is very evident that in order to
have good roads repairs must be
made whenever necessary,and with
vut Zelay, and the work must be al
most continual, and not at intervals
of six months.
A Queen's Moustache.—A most
curious statement is being made
about the Queen of Portugal. Not
ooly has Marsa Pia, it is said, a
clearly defined moustache on her
upper lip but she is posiively
proud of it, It is furthermore stated,
evidently by a comfirmed courtier,
that this hirsute adorument suits ad
mirably the Queen of Portugal’s
style of heauty We shall say, then,
that this royal example will not
effect a revolution in this particutar
direction ? Hitherto the answers on
toilette matters in the ladies’ Jjour
nals have been largely devated to
directions to fair correspondents
how they might get rid of the SUp.
erfluous growth of hair on their
upper lips and chins, But in fu
ture, possibly, toilette éditors will
be called on to recommend the best

ROMANCE OF A DUKE'S SON,
Held as a Pauper Unti! Hiz Sweet
heart Cone to the Rescue.
New Yorg, Jan. 25.—A tall
scholarly looking youth has been
an inmate of Castle Garden for the
past week., e wasa detained im
‘migraut,and was to be sent' back
to~day under the pauper immigra
‘tion Jaw. He had no money and
| apparently no friends until yester
day, when a note containing severs
al neatly folded bills was handed to.
him, and he proudly told the offic
inls that he was no longer a pau~
per. The hills Zwere genuine
and he was immediately relexsed,
The fortnnate young man has a
peculiar history. His name is An
touy Sadowsky, he was born in Po-
Jand where his father bore the title
of duke before the Russian conquest
and was the o wner ot a large estate.
When Poland was divided up this
estate was confiscated, and the
heartbroken Duke, with his son
and wite, fled to Germany.,
There the young man was sent
to college, and had almost complet~
ed his education when both his pax
rents died. With jthe little money
left by his father, William contine
ued his studies. Last summer be
met Miss Cleopatra Fliegh, a young
Chicago girl who. was seeing Eu
rope with her father. The latter is
.I a merchant and took quite a fancy
,’ to the handsome young Pole, His
daughter was even more deeply in+
. terested in the young man, aad the
i two promised to correspond whea
they parted.
~ Mr. Fliegh requested William
‘that in case he should decide to
come to this country to netify him
and he would endeavor to secure a
position for him. William arrived
on Jan 21, on the steamer Bohemia
from Hamburg, He immediately
telegraphed Mr, Fliegh of his are
rival and calmly awaited an' an
swer, Day after day passed with
cut any response, and poor Walliam
had alwost given up hope. He was
amoug ~he detained immigrants
yesterday and had just packed up
his baggage when the letter came.
It was from his sweectheart. She
avd her tather were it Troy when
the telegram was sent, and it was
several days later when they res
ceived it. They immediately sent
money to William to purchase a
ticket “to Chicago, snd the latter
left for that city by an afternoon
train,
Speaking of Mr. Alexander’s new
variety of cotton, the New York
Evening Post says: “Probably the
evolutionists will .nake much of it,
and tell us how, in the natural
course of things, even without the
invention of man, the five-fingered
cotton plant, having once secured
lodgement on the eurth, would in
evltably supersede the old variety.
Asat would get more sunshine, less
mildew, and fewer caterpillars, it
would be better armed and equip
ped in the struggle for existence,
Being the fittest, it would survive,
It anybody asks how the variation
came about, the question cannot be
answered, We only know that
variations are occurinz all the
time, and that the profitable ones,
that is, those profitable to the
plant or animal in the struggle for
existence,are preserved, They are
preserved by man when he ob
serves them, as Mr. Alexander did
in this instance; but they are also
preserved by nature, as Mr. Darwin
was the first to eystematically show,’
Prof. Woodrow’s views en the sube
ject might be interesting,
Wishing to make a change in my
business I am now offering induce
ments for trade. W, C. Kendrick,

A Great Question.
The address on education which
Rev. J. O. A< Clark, D. D, de
livered at the last session of the
North Georgia Methodist confersn
ce, and which he has repeated on
several subsequent occasionr since,
has caused considerable comment
and, we have no dmifit; has awak
ened the thought of many people
on this important subject. 3
We are glad to know that the
address . will soon be issued in
pawphlet from. Itisa compr,eh*‘l
enkive and able study of i,he greats
est question which conironts the
p ople of Georgia today. We do
not indoage all the positions taken
by Dr. Clark, especially its advoc
acy of compulsory eduneation and
theory that the best system of pub~
lic schools would be one under
which the general fund would be’
distributed amonyz the varions re
ligivus denomintions for the sup~
port of sectarian schools. But Dr.
Clark makes these preferences mere
ely incidental to his main plea for
better schools. He muakes two com
plants, both ot which, we belive,are
weil grounded., He charges that
the state does not properly support
the common schools, and that a
proportion of the white people in
Georgia do not Appreciate even the
door educational advantages which
are offered to their children. The
doctor illustrates both these propos
itions in a striking maner, He
shows that.while the average white
child in Georgia hasa chance to go
to a free school ouly three months
in the year,the average negro ehild,
by greason of outside co: tributions
and the remarkable enthusiasm
among the eolored race on the sub
ject of edueation, gets a good-deal
more tuition during the year,
The echarge made by Dr. Clark
that childien of indolent white pars
ents aretoo cften foreed to work
on the farm or in the factory at an
immature uge to the injury of both
health and character and at the
irreparable loss of the opportunity
to edueato the younglwind unfor
tunately has too much foundation
in fact, He lays great stress on
the fact that it is the ambition of
almost every negro to have bhis
children educated, that the negro
preachers teach their flock that it
is religious and secial duty toecon
omize and stint in order 1 give
their childrenjan opportuity to go
to school, and that as a result of
this feeling and teaching there are
many localities in Georgia in which
the pro rata school attendance of
negro children is greater than that
ot white children. These are grave
facts and demand the serious
attention which Dr;Clark has given
them., He draws tile proper
distinetion hetween the races as to
rative force and does not doubt
that the white race will always
dominate the? country, but he ape
peals to white parents to give their
children a chance to make the bost
use of that superiority which is a
race heritage, It it very probable,
Dr. Clark thinks,that among persons
born since the war the ratio ot
illiteracy in Georgia among the
whites 1s as great or ever greater
than it is emong the negroes. His
address, contains some facts thati
are not pleasant to contemplafe,but |
for this very reason they should
be faced boitdly and charged speedi
ly. We have uot attempted to give
an analysis of his elaborote argus
ment or even to teuch upon iis
many suggestions. It should be
read by all who have the intelligen
¢e and patriotism to appreciate the
present condition of our 2ommon
school system and the crying need
for its improvement. Whether
they agree with Dr, Clark or not
his argument will ket them to think
ing, and as s»on as the people ot
Georgin give to this subjeet ailequn
ate thought we will have befter
schools and a livelier desire among
the msses of the white people of
the state to give their children eye
ery possible edwcational advan
tage. :
