It was our liappy lot to spend a day
tiro part week in this beautiful and bus.
ioess city, and would have been pleased
t« abide the decision of kind friends
and remained longer, but for other en
gagements.
Old and new friends treated us with
such consideration, that wc could but
feel that wc were at home.
At the large Provision Store of
Messrs. Kolb & Couriof we met with
that cheerful, live newspaper man, Col,
Black, whom we had never seon before
but had heard of, through other col
umns than that ot his own. He took
tits by the arm, as would an old friond,
and with a peculiar twitch of the eye,
says “won’t you take a smile.’* Know
ing his position to be a strong one, and
also, that be was well provided with ra
tion,», we thought best to surrender with
out the firing of a gun —walked back
and called for a glass of wine. This
seemed to surpriso him—said an Editor
should have better sense than to trifle
with his stomach in that way, but the
matter was settled, and all (ourself ox
oepted) drank to the success of our
“Journal."
A pleasant hour was passed in the
Col’s, sanctum, and the witnessing of
“ten nights in a bar room," rendered by
Col. Gilbert’s excellent Dramatic Corps,
wound up our meeting oi friends in
Kufaula.
Success, say we, to the Bluff City, to
our kind friends and to that Blackin an.
War with Spain.
That the United States will “take a
band’’ in the Cuban difficulties, is now
almost settled, if we may judge from
movements, for which there can be no
other good reasons movements which
are attracting the attention and cxei’ing
the suspicion of the people generally.
Government authorities claim that un
due suspicion has been aroused, and that
certain orders issued to certain navy
yards to put certain “Men of War’’in
repair immediately was done for the sole
purpose of "preserving and keeping quite
a number of first-clans ships that would
in the course of a year or two, be ren
dered utterly useless by neglect.”
Quite a sudden thought, it must be
confessed. A wonder it is that precau
tion should have been taken at this par
ticular time, when the waves from the
ships of contending parties—the boom
of cannon and the sinell of powder arc
falling upon onr just n0.7
ifrhen our military President, our modern
Alexander, has a chance of increasing
his sway, of adding more territory to
this unhappy and over-taxed country.
No, no, this “ immediate repair" means
something, and in our humble opinion,
it means war.
Well, woll, if Cuba is fighting for
liberty, fighting to throw off the Span
ish yoke, she had best not be won by
any interposition ol tbo United States
in her behalf, to connect herself with
us. Better would it be for her that she
go down beneath the sea than that she
make this exchange. Too lato will she
find this out, too late will she know that
she has bartered liberty for tyranny, and
when she repents, when sho attempts to
retract, when Cubans assert their rights
as freemen and are refused them, when
she would withdraw from the compact
she will be coerced, just as tbo South
ern States were, as if though there was
no such thing as a natural or absolute
right.
An Old Question Revived. —Does
advertising pay ? The universal an
swer is that it does, and hardly a per
son but can give one er more instances
within his own knowledge of men who
have made fortunes by advertising.—
Ask not merely the patent medicine
men, but go to men in ordinary mer
cantile houses.
Ask Mr. Bradley, if it paid to ad
vertise tbe “Duplex Elliptic Skirt.”
Ask Mr. Wells if it psys to adver
tise tbe Phrenological Journal.
Ask Mr Gilman if it paid to adver
tise the Great American Tea Oompa
ny.
Ask the New York Life Insurance
Company if advertising has paid them.
Ask Mr. Packard or Putnam if ad
vertising has helped their monthlies.
The fact is, that sensible, skillful ad
vertising pays tenfold bettor than any
find all other investments that call for
n like amount of exjienditure. We
hnve seen it on a half-dozen leading
papers, and have felt it in our own
business. There is nothing that pays
Eke advertising. It is,-in reality, the
only royal road to wealth. And yet
there is element of success so little
«sed and so much abused.[N. Y. Even

The Wur I’arlf—Who they
Arc.
Thinking of the state of affairs as
betwx-n tho United States and Eng
land, and wishing to present to our
readers an article on tho probability of
war, by reason of tho difference exist
ing, caused by the acts and doingt-of
the Alabama we find Mr. Sneed of tho
Savannah Jirpub/ican had done the
work for us, in his issue ot tho 25th he
says:
Wo have seen nothing to change
onr opinion, heretofore advanced, that
there is no danger of a war for tbe vin- j
dication of the Alabama claims, at (
least lor many years to noma. Tho
iiltraists, or those who are represented
by Mr. Sumner, so far as our observa
tions extend, are confined to Mr Hum
net’s constituents, a few Radicals in
Congress, and a small number of bla
tant and frothy Northern journals, with
the Herald in the lead. Tho sober |
sense of the country generally revolts ,
at the ulea of ever resorting to tho
dread arbitrament of war because Eng-|
land will not subscribe to a carte ;
blanche and allow us to fill out the doc
ument.
Tho real source of all this discontent
and desire to plunge tho country into
the horrors of bloodshed—and there
are those who so desire—is Now Eng
land The manufacturers grew lich
on the late intestine struggle; times
are getting dull again, and they wish
to add stilt more to ihoir already ple
thotio purses. Their shipping interest
was pretty well destroyed by the two
or three cruisers that we sent out upon
the high seas, so that is now no mate
rial obstacle in tho way. About all
the vessels they have left might be
profitably employed as coasting trans- !
ports m the event of war.
New England wants a monopoly of
the cotton market, and that this war
with England would give her For
eighn commerce would cease, and, as
a neecessary consequence, the South
ern planter would be confined to the
home market for the sale of hid pro
duce. We produce two or three times
as much cotton ns American manufac"
tures can absorb in tirno of peace with
foreign markets open to them, and this
amount would hardly suffer a material
diminution in case of a foreign war.—
Being unable to sell except to the Yan
kees, how much would they bo likely
to pay us for our crops ? Any shrewd
arithmetician with a reasonable knowl
edge of that peculiar people—their
love for the almighty dollar and extra
ordinary skill in screwing it out ol
others and keeping all they get —can
readily answer the question We
tjhould probably got from six to eight
cents, for that which cost us in the
production from ten to twelve cents
flow do Southern planters like the
prospect?
New England not only wants a
monopoly of the Ameiicnn cotton mar
ket to enrich herself and break down
European, manufactures that stand in
her way, but when she buys tho cot
ton for nothing and manufactures it
into fabrics, she wants a monopoly of
the American market for their sale.—
This she v>puld also have in the event
of a foreign war, and hence our people
can amuse themselves yvitb still anoth
er calculation, viz : as cotti.'.n fabrics
form a necessary of life, and Wb enn
get them now here else, how much
would the conscience of tho Yankee
manufacturer insist upon our paying
when ho gets them ? This figure we
confess, cannot be so readily arrived
at ns in the former cases, but one
thing is certain : they would get all
they could.
The Southern people may thus form
some faint idea of what would bo their
condition in case of a war with Eng
land about the Alabama claims or any
thing else. They are now crippled,
but they would then be crushed, while
the New England manufacturers
would come out of the war, if it should
last long enough, the owners of one
half the couutry, and with power to
change this government lo a complete
despotism if they should so feel in
clined.
Should such a war ever be inaugu
rated, we take it £or granted that the
Northern people will be willing to
fight it out of themselves. The depre
dations complained of, and for which
indemnity is sought of England, was
the work of tbe Southern people, and of
them alone, und a work which they
both approved and gloried in at tho
time—the same people can hardly be
called upon to charge it as a wroug
and a crime upoL a third party, and
actually take up arms to punish her
therefor. It would at least look sing
ular. We have no fixed idea wbat
the South would do in such a contin
gency, tho issue being separated from
all others, but we think it would be
wise in the government at Washing
ton not to put her to the test.
There are again, those in the North
who favor a war with England as a
means of repudiating a good portion
ol the public debt, of which she owes
about a thousand millions. The New
York Herald tavors this idea, but we
dismiss it a3 a very foolish one, for a
war to repudiate a thousand millions
would probably cost us double tho
amount. That we cull bad financier
ing.
There is still another party that fu
vors extraordinary measures likely to
lend to war--tho monarchists or frionds
of imperial government. The last war
well nigh overthrew the Constitution, ’
and did overthrow free government in
a largo section of the Union; another
would probably finish the job, erect a
throno and put a puppet of the bond
holders upon it.
Such is tho schema, and such the
elements that have put it in motion.—
Certainly there is enough of tho in
stinct of self preservation, if not cf
justice and statesmanship, in the great
body of the American people to put
down these architects of ruin and
bring all their wicked counsels to
naught.
Gold for Cotton.
Cffton h gold. It is gold just as
truly as if it were dug directly out of a
i California placer or quartz mino. Bays
■ tho Mobile Tribune-. Why? Because,
in the last resort, gold pays for it.—
j Then, why should the planter, who
digs it out of the fat alluvium of the
river and creek bottoms or tbe free soil
of the oak and hiekorys, take tho inter
mediary greenback for his lawful and
legitimrte “digging-?" To-night the
Board of Trade takes up this great
question. We stake our roputation on
the suggestion, that our ODcrgctic
| Board never had a more vital and
fruitful question before it. Let it rub
; this veritablo Alladin’s lamp and sum
i mon the genii of a Dew dispensation to
pour its blessings upon this lladically
oursed land.
To us it appears that this proposition
has but one side. Tho question is, why
1 should wc of the South, iD a spirit of
mi-placed gemrosity, volunteer to take
a chanco in the bad lottery of the Fed
i era! paper system ? We need not do it.
There is no call of honor, friendship,
or magnanimous sympathy to take any
such risk. The Federal debt, in cue
smw, is no funeral of ours. Neither
are its baker meats nor its probable col
i lapse, affairs of ours. There rushes
along tbe current! Why throw ourselv:s
and it, when on each side are sound
j nmeial bioks on which we may plant
ourselves and watch tbe onward tumble
| to the verge of the precipice ? Take your
gold, and let the Federal maelstrom
“rip”—rip as i t will with sharpers and
“rings” in the Capitol and imbecility in
the .White House and Cabinet. Let tho
Southern phrterand merchant keep out
of this muddle, and plant himself upon
the solid metal which the experienced
wisdom of ages has certlol = f so <Lo

Tlic Cotton Worm-Important
to Planter* if True.
Another remedy for tho cotton
worm has been placed at onr disposal
by a friend who has the interest of his
paper as woll as his country at
heart. It is simple, easy, perfectly
practicable and said to bo unfailing,
and is certainly worth a trial. 110
says pilant the Castor Bean all around
every ten acres of cotton throughout
tho field and not a worm will touch it;
or a still better plan would be to plant
it every few rows throughout the field.
If tbe beans could not be gathered for
market, there would result no loss to
, the planter, from the fact that the plant
i is one of the best fertilizers known and
' ti.e field would be improved instead of
injured? for « subsequent crop The
depredations of the army worm cut off
i our crop last year and thus impover
ished tho country thousands of dollars.
, The indications this season are most
favorable for this crop), and it is but
right that our planters chould make
! every effort to guard againsi failure,—
It is well known that no insect cjV,"re~
dates upon tho Castor Bean, and it is
probable that it would boa protection
to tho plants.— Conzales (Texas) In

Tiik Colored Assessorfor Geor
gia.—A special to the New York Sun
says: “The colored person who was
nominated for Assessor ia the Third
District of Georgia is a Northern man,
of excellent education, and his confir
mation is certain, although he is op -
posed by Senator (so-called) Hill, of
Georgia, who is not ia favor of giving
office to colored men. This completed
tho Georgia nominations, and this is
tbe only colored mania the list.”
We infer from this that the rumor of
tho appointment of negroes to clerkship
in the Savannah Custom Houso is with
out foundation.
Jefferson Davis—The letter re
ceived from this distinguished Southern
er, conveys to us, :ays the New Orleans
Picayune, the pleasing information that
his health is excellent, and that he in
tends to return this spring to tke coun
try which loves him so well. He says:
“It has been my purpose to return
this spring to what was my home, and
if permitted to do so, without iujury or
embarrassment to my friends, to engage
in some business which may yield a
support.’’

To tlic l*r«sm siikl People of
Georgia.
We publish this morning (he follow
ing extract from tho very able address
of the Hon. Nelson Tift:
There is now really but one disturb
ing clement between us and the major
ity of Congross—tllo light of colored
men to hold cilice under our ConstiiU'
tion and laws. It was represented, and
generally believed, that tho Legislature
acted in wilful violation of law in de
claring them ineligible. Tho opinion
and decision of Judge Schley in the
case of the State vs. While, winch was
printed in the National lutclligonccr
and distributed in Congress, modified,
and in some instances changed the prev
alent opinion of the action of the Leg
islature. That case will bo decided by
tho Supreme Court of Georgia in June.
Tho decision will settle tbe law on that
subject. The people of Georgia will
abide by it, Congress will, in my opin-
ion, be satisfied of its justice, tt ill admit
the State to lepresentation, and 'hut
will cod our Federal troubles.
I take this opportunity to publicly re
turn my thanks to the one hundred and
eight gentleman—judges of the Su
preme, Superior arid Ordinary Courts,
Mayors of cities, and others—who, in
answer to my eirouiar, furnished the
testimony relative to the condition of
affairs in Georgia which silenced the
falso witness and slanders of our ene
mies, and destroyed one of the chief ar
gument upon which they had relied for
the accompl shment of their purposes.
In the trials and saer fioes of war, aud
in the higher moral aud mental trials
and sacrifices of their subsequent efforts
for peace, tbe people of Georgia Lave il
lustrated tho highest type of Christian
civilization and heroic fortitude. Not
withstanding the afflictions which they
have suffered, the provocations to disor
der whioh they have received, and tbe
discouragements by which they are sur
rounded, if we compare the present con
dition of affairs with the past, there has
never been a time when all classes of
our people were more kindly disposed,
when the laws were better observed,
when life, liberty and property were
more secure, or when the entire energies
of tbe people were more persistently de
voted to productive industry.
No people have been more blessed by
Nature’s bounties than tho people ol
Georgia—situation, climate, soil, pro
ductions, mineral resources, manufac
turing piwer—these—if we can have
assured peace and security for the future
—with such a people, and with tbe aid
of capital and population which will
fliw in to share the rich rewards of in
dustry, the future glory and greatness
of-our State can scarcely be conceived.
Our purposes and action will, in a
great degree, determine our future. Let
us strive to prove worthy of the bless
ings which We seek.
Very respectfully, your ob’t serv’t,
Nelson Tift.
A Real Hero—A Scene at Sea.
Two weeks ago, on board an English
j steamer, a little ragged boy, aged nine
; years, was discovered on the feurth day
cf the outward voyage from Liverpool to
ilc-TT York, ana carried before tho fi<s*
mate, whose duty it was to deal with
j such oases When questioned as lo the
object of his being stowed away, and
who brought him on board, the boy,
who had a beautiful sunny face, and
eyes that looked liite the very mirrors of
truth, replied that his stepfather did it,
because be ciuld not affird to keep hi n,
nor to pay his passage out to Halif x,
where he had an aunt who was well eft',
aud to who.e house he was going. The
mate did not bdievo tho stor-, in Sjito
of tbo winning face and truthijl accents
of the boy. He hod seeu too much of
stowaways to be easity deceived by them,
he saidj and it was his firm conviction
• that the boy had been brought on boar i
and provided with food by the sailor-.
Tho little fellow was very roughly han
dled in consequence. Diy by day he
was questioned and rc questioned, but
always with the same result. He did
, not know a sailor on board, and his fath
er alone had secreted him, and given the
food which he ate.
At last the mate, wearied by the boy’s
persistence in the samo story, and per
haps a little anxious to inculpate the
other sailors, seized him one day by the
collar, and dragging him to the fore,
told him that unless he confessed the
•ruth in ten minutes from that time, he
.hang him to the yard arm. He
then rnujo i*‘ ,n down under it on the
deck All Bi jtini him were the pas
sengers and sailors oi tbd midway watch
and iu front of him stood tu" {"oxorable
mate, with his ebronometor in t,. : *
and the other officers of the ship by l ' s
side. I: was the finest sight, said our
informant, that he had ever beheld—to
see the pale, proud, sorrowful face of
that noble boy, his head erect, his beau
tiful eyes bright through the tears that
suffused them. When eight minutes
had fled the mate told him he had only
two minutes to live, and advired him to
speak tbe truth and save his life ; but Ire
replied with the utmost simplicity and
sincerity, by asking the mate it he might
pray.
The mato said nothing, but nodded
his bead, and turned as pale as a ghost,
and shook with trembling like a reed
with the wind. And there, all eyes
turned on him, the brave and noble !i’—
tie fellow, this poor waif whom society
owned not, and whose own stepfather
could not care for him—there he knelt,
with clasped hands and eyes upraised to
IleaveD, while he repeated audibly the
Lord’s Prayer, and prayed tho deaF
Lord Jesus to take him to Heaven.
Our informant adds that thero then]
occurred a scene ts of Pentioost.
broke from strong, hard hearts, as the ’
mate sprang forward to the boy and
clasped him to his bosetn, an! kissed
him and blossed him, and told him how
sincerely he now believed his story, and
how glad he was that he had been
brave enough to face death and be will
ing to sacrifice bis life for the truth of
his own word.— N. Y- Sun.
