The great strike in London has for
tunately ended. A sort of moral victory has
been gained, but the price paid in dollars a n 1
cents comes somewhat dear. The city of
London estimates her lossat $10,000,000 besides
a depreciation of $5,000,000 iu her dock securi
ties.
Mr. Belknap, the general manager
of the Central railroad, lias resigned, and
has accepted the presidency of a new hank
in the city of Mexico. This bank will open
with a capital of $5,000,000. The monied men
are from New York, London and Mexico.
The resignation of Mr. Belknap takes effect
on the 1st of October. The impression pre
vails that Mr. Cecil Gabbett will succeed
him.
The public pressure has been too
strong for President Harrison, and he lias
been forced to request the resignation of
Corporal Tanner, before the big surplus of
Cleveland’s administration was squandered
on deadbeats and bummers. The place has
been offered to Major Warner, but he has
declined. The man who accepts will for
sometime eat but little idle bread, for he will
find a whole ocean of muddle and con
fusion.
JteS“ Col. Walsh and Messrs. Carwile and
Jacob l’hinizy, of Augusta, went up to At
lanta on Wednesday to lay before the con
vention of General Passenger Agents the
claims of Augusta for cheap rates and excur
sion tickets. The hotel Bon-Air, on the Sand
Hills, will be opened on the 1st of November
under the management of a northern man
who has had wide and long experience in
serving the pleasure seeking public, and the
object of these gentlemen in going to Atlanta
was to have this hotel placed on a footing
with Aiken, Jacksonville and St. Augustine.
Favorable rates lift ve been promised Augusta,
and tiie hotel Lon-Air, with its many advan
tages will at once loom up as a popular resort
for northern and western people who may
leave their homes in search of a milder cli
mate.
“Glory to God iu tlie highest, and on
earth peace and good will to men.” The Huff
and Patterson duel is oft'. The belligerents,
with the approval and sanction of their war
rior seconds, have agreed to leave their differ
ences to arbitrators whose voice is not for
war. The country can now catch its wind
and take n much needed rest. The eyes of
the whole state have been so intently fixed
upon ilie ingoings and outgoings of these
doughty warriors, they have followed them
so closely in their mysterious and devious
wanderings, that the tension has been so
strained, that had not this halt been made
the consequences would have been heart
rending. A grateful public is thankful for
this welcome rest, and their hearts go out in
praise and adoration to these brave and con
siderate gentlemen.
THE CITIZEN AM) THE KlItJlElPS K&cL'KMON
AR AIN.
Tot.edo, Ohio, Sept.0,1S89.
After leaving the hospitable and trafm
hearted people of Wellington our party went
to Cleveland, and was right royally enfer-
so different, and the mode anil manner of It's
c iltivation of the soil Is sd widely apart from
our practice, that their study and compari
son by a man of any intelligence, will cause
him t > pause and ponder and weigh well the
d fferences. In the first place economy in j
everything is the great pervading element of J t;lhl( , d at th „ SUIlinan House. This build-
the Ohio farmer, and esptcially is this «lw-j jn „ |sa v erv handsome and imposing struc-
cernable in all the little things of ids daily , { and is set b;ick s0lne distance from
life. The farm houses are compactly built! the streets, with a beautiful grassy lawn in
an 1 there is no surplus space in their con- j frf - |n tbe centre of « bich lt spelt its name
stru tion. The cool climate does not call for wjfh artistic comb ination of lovely tlow-
piaizus or wide passages. The make-up of e „ s _ Xhp owncrs a .em to have built this
magnificent building just for glory as
TIIK NKliKO IS THE SOUTH AND SOUTH.
Either the world is against the negro, or
the negro is against the world. Every day
brings tbe news of some race conflict. These
race wars are not confined to the South.—
Wherever “old cuff” has his local habitation,
differences and antagonism follow as a mat
ter of course. He is evidently a people all to
liimsclf, and go where he will the race pre
judice follows. Last week there were con
flicts in Georgia. This week comes the news
ot a serious scrimmage away out in Illinois.
As usual the negro got the worst end of the
bargain. The ring leaders were arrested and
put in jail, two of them were killed and any
number of heads were broken.
These frequent lessons don’t seem to teacli
anything. The troubles are increasing, and
though the negro is always tbe sufferer, yet
lie will persist in bringing on these emphatic
differences. Experience don’t seem to profit
him worth a cent. His pugnacious disposi
tion is continually agging him onto raise a
rumpus, and if his reasoning faculties would
only cause him to pause a moment, and con
sider the consequences, he would certainly
stop before he goes out of his way to seek
troubles. The negroes best friends are in tiie
South, and it is here alone where his vices
sire known that his short comings can be tol
erated. The sympatlij- of the North comes
only from its cranks and politicians. At
election times his vote helps to turn the beam
when the parties are evenly balanced, but
when the ballot is counted, then he is rele
gated to his allotted sphere where the world
concedes that his time should be spent in
hewing wood and drawing water for the bal
ance of mankind. The state of Ohio perhaps
sends out more missionaries to the benighted
regions of tiie South for tiie salvation and
building up of the negro than any state in
tiie Union, and yet the very large majority
of even the Republicans of Ohio have not
one spark of fellow feeling for their brother
in black. Their love only goes out for him
when he pitches his tent on far distant fields.
Distance) lends enchantment to the view, aud
t lie black paragon of perfection may luxuri
ate in ideal beauty in Georgia, but the min
ute lie sets foot on Ohio soil he is shorn of
liis virtues, and tiie shoulder that touches
him has all tbe coldness of the icicle. If the
negro would have the good will of even tiie
Ohio crank, he must keep liimsclf away out
of sight, close contact should by all means be
avoided.
THE HETUHS OF TIIE GEORGIA FARMERS
FROM OHIO.
The Georgia farmers and editors are at
home again after passing two weeks very
pleasantly and profitably in visiting the peo
ple of Ohio. This mixing and mingling to
gether of the people of two sections—neither
of whom have fully appreciated the other, ot
realized how much they were akiu in tlie
general make-up of the American citizen-
will be productive of lasting good. The very
warm and earnest welcome extended by the
good people of Ohio, irrespective of all polit
ical affiliations, have broken down the last
harrier of reserve that have been standing in
the way of Georgians, and from this time
forth, so far as this visiting delegation is con
cerned, there will be no North, no South, and
Georgia and Ohio will be but parts and par
cels of tiie same common country. No greet
ing could have beeu more fraternal, no wel
come could have been warmer. The latch
string of hospitality hung from every door,
and a heartfelt God bless you seemed to well
up from every bosom. The memories of “our
late unpleasantness” were only revived that
< ne might extol the heroic achievments of
tiie other, and show by the extension of gen
et ous hospitality that the last smoldering
embers of that fire which had burned so
brightly some twenty odd years ago hail gone
completely out, and that respect and admira
tion were high in tiie ascendant, and vitupe
ration, and ill will had been banished to an
eternal exile. This visit clearly demonstra*
ed how beautiful it was for brethren to dwell
together in unity, and that the wisdom, aud
policy, and desire of the American people
evidently agreed in saying that sectional di
visions should be forgotten, and that all
should journey together on that broad road
which a reunited people had laid out as the
great thoroughfare of the nation. Foraker
may unfurl the battle flags “tattered and
torn”—musty with the mildew of years; and
his croaking voice may screech out dismal
forbodings as he waves his bloody shirt, but
only political cranks and the benighted
brother in black will rally round this flag or
march at this bidding.
But the visiting delegation bring back with
them something more than pleasant recollec
tions. They have picked up much experi
ence and information which will be or last
ing good, not only to themselves, but to ail
with whom they may come in contact.—
Every farmer learned many tilings, which,
tv lien put to the test, will bring forth good
their houses has in view the labor-saving
process, for the wives and daughters, with
hut t are exceptions, do all of the household
work. Tiie horny hands of the heads of the
family are never idle, and lead in all and
every kind of work on tiie farm. They never
employ negro laborers—though there are a
good many of them lying loose over the coun
try—but always give the decided preference
to white laborers, and whenever they are
forced to give employment to the negro, they
let him slide as soon as a white man can he
found to fill Ills place. The prejudice against
the “brother in black” is much stronger in
Ohio titan in Georgia. They are uuanimous
in saying that the negro is idle, and Bears
constant watching, and that in working, his
object is more to kill time than to accomplish
any profitable result. Their day labor is
made up mostly from the sons of their neigh
bors whose farms are not large enough to
give constant employment to all the family.
The labor is as intelligent as the employer,
and all are socially equal, eating at the same
table and sleeping in the same houses. Rp»
specting themsel /es they give an honest days
work for every dollar of wages they get. Pos
sessed of intelligence, and a natural aptitude
to take advantage of every invention, they
use to good purpose, every agricultural im
provement, and consequently all the appli
ances of the age are taken advantage of, and
one Ohio mau does the work of a half dozen
Georgia negroes. There are no surplus acres
or waste places on any farm, and no man
cares to own more land than he pan work by
himself with the aid of those about him.—
Tiie watchful eye of the farmer sees every
thing, and his saving disposition is sure to
stop up every crack in which there can be
tiie slightest leakage. Planting only a limit
ed number of acres, tiie manure of his barn
yard, made up from the droppings of his
horses, his cattle and hl« hogs, are enough to
enrich his land, aud lie never pays out a dol
lar for commercial fertilizers. The stock law
prevails every where, and in consequence
thereof, every fanner pays particular atten
tion to ids stock, and he not only raises his
milk anil butter, his lard and meat, but lias a
surplus for sale, and from all these little
sources come the stream of his profits. Tiie
Ohio farmer is confident that Providence
must, have intended the mule for tiie negro.
A mule is never seen at work on an Ohio
farm—and a two horse plow running to the
depth of seven inches is used without an ex
ception. Every laborer on a farm has liis
special department of work, in-doors and
out-of-doors, and there is no shirking, or
holding back. The work is regular and con
tinuous. Tiie highwaysor public roads are in
splendid order, anil they are so many of them i
very often running parallel with eacli other,
scarcely a mile apart. Tiie cost of construct
ing these magnificent highways foot up near
ly seven dollars to every acre of land.—
Though many an acre of these lands are
mortgaged, yet a mortgage of ten or even
twenty dollars an acre is not sucli a serious
thing, when the ?het is borne in mind that
the market value of these lands range from
fifty to a hundred dollars. There is no credit
system such as is so disastrously practiced in
Georgia, and every farmer buys liis clothing
and agricultural implements (these are the
main items of liis supplies) at rock bottom
prices.
But let us not disparage Georgia even by a
comparison. We have a climate unequalled
by any country, and every acre of our lands
if subjected to the same process of tillage as
is pursued in Ohio, would rank in productive
ness with any locality. The farming lands of
the Miami valley are valued at one hundred
dollars per acre, but the same industrious
and intelligent system applied to the five
dollars an acre lands of Georgia would in a
few years cause them to pan out better re
sults than the garden spots of this far famed
Miami valley. The stock farms around
Wellington, which yield sucli abundant fruit
in the rich products of butter and cheese,
make tiie valuation of these lands reach up
to fabulous prices; yet there are any number
of counties in Georgia whose neglect ed lands
could in a few years, with tiie same sort of
intelligent management, be made to hold a
strong hand even with the thrifty farmers
anil productive lands of the favored people of
hospitable Wellington, The broad acres
around Lake Erie devoted to tiie growing of
peaches, and the beautiful Islands of those
rich waters given up to tiie cultivation of the
grape, and their immense cellars filled with
the purple juice of the vintage, all bespeak a
goodly heritage aud a bounteous provision of
Providence. The Georgia peach is without a
rival, and with intelligent handling and the
needed attention, can work its way success
fully through any market, and lands that
will not bring over ten dollars an acre in
Georgia, if manipulated by that sort of pru
dent and wise forethought which is the con
trolling element in the general make-up of
tiie Ohio farmer, would rival in productive
ness the peach farms of that region whose
valuation is assessed at over an hundred dol
lars an acre. And just here be it said that
ten years ago these same lands in Ohio, on
which are now those valuable peach farms,
were considered of no value, and would not
have brought over $2.50 an acre. The islands
of Lake Erie, devoted to tiie cultivation of
grapes, are valued at from three to four hun
dred dollars an acre. Mr. Corpnt, who is our
Georgia authority on grapes, says “in my
opinion, grape growing and wine making in
Georgia can be carried on just as successfully
and much cheaper in Georgia than in Ohio,
for wlille their grape lands bring an average
of $300 dollars an acre, and produce on an
average one and a half tons to the acre—
our choice grape lands can be bought for leas
than $25, and our output (I speak from ex,
perience) is never less (after the fifth year)
than two aud a half tons to the acre.” Tiiese
observations and comparisons prove that
we should love Ohio none tiie less, but
only Georgia more, they also ought to im
press us and convince us of what the Al
mighty lias done for us, and how little we
have done for ourselvet, They show what
immense possibilities there are laid up for us
if we would only go out in search of them
They show how long—owing to what cause it
is needless to stop to inquire—we have been
sleeping over our rights, and that lt is high
time that we were up and doing. If there
fore tins visiting delegation will practice and
teach the lessons they have just learned, a
great impetus will be given the Georgia farm
er. and we hope that in taking hold of these
truths and pursuing them to a successful cul
mination, that his thoughts will for the time
being wander off from the reflections on his
Imaginary gloomy surroundings, anil in liis
renewed desire to live, he will catch on to the
desire to let live, and that he will be content
to work in harmony with .himself and the
balance of mankind.

Besslations of the Little Buck Ht-ail Farmers’
Alliance.
Near LawtonviLi,E;Sept. 14.—Whereas,
It has been learned by this Alliance, that
Daniel, Sons & Palmer, aud other merchants
are using and selling jute bagging, contrary
to the interest, and wishes of the Farmers’
Alliance. Be it therefore, resolved.
1, That we will not patronize any mer
chant who handles, sells or allows their tei -
ants to usejute bagging either directly them
selves, or through a third party.
2, That all other Alliances be requested
to co-operate with us in this movement.

nia Telephone, Statesboro Eagle, and the
Swu'nsboro Tine Forest with a request to

it has never paid over one per cent, on its
cost. The rooms, at least many of them, are
intended for families, and I soon found my
self located in a bed room handsomely fur
nished with private parlor attached. The
ponuiation of Cleveland is about 280,000. It
contains many handsome buildings anil the
wealthiest men of the state are its residents,
it was here that the great oil trust had its
beginning, and from it Rockafeller is said to
have made for himself over an hundred mil
lion. He has a magnificent stoue residence
on Euclid avenue, and its huge proportions
reminded one of the pictures of some of the
great royal palaces of the old world. It con
tains one hundred rooms, and its towers
and ornamental projections adds to the im
mense proportions of the huge building.
Euclid avenue is famed for its handsome
residences and beautiful grounds. Jlie
houses are all set back about 200 leet from
the streets, and there are no dividing palings
between them. Beautiful aud arsistically
arranged beds of bright flowers are dotted all
about over these grassy lawns, and the wind
ing walks and drives impress one with the
rea tty of a “thing of beauty and a joy for
ever.” This avenue is five miles long before
it reaches Lake View cemetery. In passi ng
along this avenue the wayfarer realizes that
tiie living has spared no expense in rearing
luxurious homes, and when he enters the
homes of tbqjr dead he can still read the rul
ing passion strong in death, for on every
side is the same prodigal expenditure oi
money and t jie profusion of nil that lavish
expenditure which holds on even to the very
last moment. Away out on tiie farthest
limits of this beautiful burial ground on a
high eminence stands the imposing monu
ment of President Garfield. It is built of
granite and is 180 feet high. One hundred
and fifty thousand dollars have been ex
pended in its construction, and fifty thous
and is yet wanted to complete its inside fin
ish. The interior is most gorgeous, and
tiie brilliant and many pajoreij marbles
artistically put together are so apt to at
tract attention and call off the mind, that it
is liard for one to associate such gaudy fin
ish and bright colors with tiie mute trap
pings th;it belong to tiie dead. The body ol
the president is still resting a short distance
off in the family vault, and it? transfer to
this stately mausoleum will not be nijide un
til some noted urtist in Italy can perfect
an elaborate work of art us a finishing touch
to this costly structure. An admittance of
10 cents each is asked from visitors, and the
amount from tiffs collection averages about
$15 a day.
On Sunday morning our party divided;
about one half being an element of great
sancity went to church, while those of us
whose feet had a proclivity to travel in the
beaten path along the downward slope, ac
cepted a courteous invitation from Mr. Gard
ner, tiie mayor oi the city, and enjoyed with
him a pleasant sail in his yaclii “Wasp” out
on the. blue waters of Luke Erie. The
wind blew eool and bracing, and an over
coat with every now and then a sparkling
glass of generous wine lent comfort and ex
hilaration, and our sojourn for several hours
on tiffs beautiful sheet of water was full ol
pleasure and joyous excitement. During
our stay in Cleveland, the wind that blew
across the lake though bracing, was too cool
for my southern habits, and warm under
clothing qnd a spring overcoat did not feed
by any means opt of place.
On Monday morning we left for Sandusky,
going sixty miles an hour over the Lake'
Shore railroad. The best roads in Ohio are
under tiie management of tiie Vanderbilt
family, and though it is the greatest railroad
combination in the country, the people of
Ohio are not railroad kickers like many of
us Georgians. They are all proud of their
great railways and tiie kindliest feeling seem
to exist between the people and their corpor
ations. The people say that t^e railroads have
been tiie prime movers in giving life and
impetus to all of their enterprises, and that
they owe them much for what they are, and
for what they have received and are receiv
ing they are truly thankful.
Sandusky lias a population of some 25,000,
and like Cleveland is built upon the shores
of Lake Erie. It is surrounded by a rich
farming country, and many of its citizens
earn a good living from the sale of fish
which they catch in nets out of the kike.
The number of pounds of fish sent to other
markets go away up into the millions.
“Mine host” of the Sloune house pleasantly
rippled tiie monoton j' of our hotel life by
having rosy cheeked girls to wait on us in
the dining rooms, and the Georgia cracker
very suddenly found himself making pleas
ant speeches, and the request for every dish
was worded ever so politely. Butter wouldn’t
baye “melted in nary one of our mouths,”
and whenever tiie slightest order was filled
the most grateful thanks oozed out from
ready lips. These girls seemed slartingly
impressed with tiie amazing politeness of
our delegation, and was evidently tickled
at tiie unwonted suavity of hotel guests.
We left Sandusky on a fast moving
steamer, and spent tiie entire day until late
in the night visiting many of tiie islands
along tiie coast. A few miles distant was
Johnson’s island, which was used during the
war as a prison for Confederates. As our
time was limited we took a hurried walk of
about a mile to see tiie graves ef several
hundred of our Confederate dead. At one
time there were headboards to the graves
giving the names and rank of the dead, but
age has marked its crumbling impress upon
many of these boards, and the name of many
a hero will be remembered only by a few
loved ones, anfi the spot of his last resting
place will be left to doubtful conjecture.
The newspaper portion of our delegation
agreed to call the attention of our people
at home to the neglected and dilapidated
condition of the far away graves. These
poor fellows breathed their last on a foreign
strand, deprived of all the endearments of
loved ones. Death, let it come in whatever
shape it may, its approach is full of dread
and unavailing anguish. But to die among
strangers, aye worse in prison with
no tender words, no watchful assiduities,
only the measured tramp of the guard, nr
the short decisive topes of the sentinel. To
die on a lonely little rock bound island, a
thousand miles from homo and its loved ones,
and then be huddled away into a shallow
grave, with no bund to push aside tiie gnus,
no eye to watch the spot, no faint memorial
to tell who or what we were.
One of our party Mr. Russell, of Bainbridge,
was for several months a prisoner of Join -
son’s island, and during our hurried visit
his thoughts were busy in going hack to the
long bye and bye, and though twenty-live
years had passed, lie recalled many places
once so familiar to him, aud the sad cast
of liis face and the tar reaching expression of
his eyes, told that old reminiscenses were
awakening many sad echoes in tiie cavern of
memory. He brought away witli him a twig
to lie used as a walking stick a pleasant
though sad reminder of his days of suffering
and cruet disappointment.
