Ex-Secretary Bayard in his re- nent address at the unveiling of the Rodney monument, knocks a heap of the stuffing out of the patri otic spontaniety of tlie signers of the Delaration ot Independence. We have seen pictures where all the signers were standing all in a huddle around the glorious docu ment each one anxious to push in and affix his signature. Mr. Bay ard’s information warranted him insay’ng that the Continental Con gress >n the 4th of July passed a resolution that “the Declaration of Independence be engrossed in parchment,” and it was many days thereafter before it was signed. It seems as it some of our old heroes mus have been rather timid about com retting themselves by placing their t times on paper: tor in the jour nal of the secret session of congress appears a resolution “that no person shall have his seat in congress dur ing th-at year until he should sign the declaration of Independence” There; seems to have been time serving politicians eyen in those nays, and the “tried and the true” had a proneness for weighing the consequences. Alas, alas, distance does End enchantment to the view, and the idols of yesterday when they tumble from their pedestals, to the dissecting eye of the unsenti mental skeptic, looks as though the hands of unskilled artists had some what to do in fixing up their pictures.

Our near neighbor, Louisvi|le, has had a good time this week-. Her people are enthused over tl’.e suc cess of their county fair. * There was a good attendance, at-d the exhibits showed up very creditably. Congressman Barnes and Mb Wat son were mining the speakejrs. As they both were peculiarly anxious to please the people, they oDeourse took on all the inspiration ]|ossib!e and talked “beautifully.” ■ Last Tuesday’s election shows that the people of Ohio have had another inventory, and that these articles are left out in the schedule of polit ical property, and that hereafter they will be regarded as among the dead issues of the buried past. In their stead will be substituted the idea of how “to live and let live,” and ; f there he discussions between Georgia and Ohio it will be on friendly issues of generous rivalry anil honest difference.

The managers of the great Ame- nt'an oil trust company at the last aim ial meeting did not make a sat- iMactory showing. The net profits turned out to be just $1,000,000 less thar flie Trustees had reported in their last circular, and there was also the same shortage in the cash assets of the company. The trus tees acknowledge that through mis takes they had lost money. They had bought oil largely from rival companies and had sold it at a loss, lucre liacl also been a loss from their manufacture of oil for the past season on account of the damaged condition of the cotton seed. Owing to this unfavorable show- !l) g, : t:ie price of the stock took a tumble. There has been a reduc- ti-’i: in the capital stock from $30,- ,,oll ,'to0 to $21,000,000, and the name <>! oil trust has been changed to oil pany. -Now that such an unfavorable "utlook faces this greedy concern, per.laps it may he induced to prac tice die precept to “live and let ,v V Its policy heretefore has J | j e i to destroy all competition, and 3 h is spent fortunes in crushing out ^yl concerns.

On next Tuesday and Wednes day the citizens of Savannah have through their mayor and bciard of trade invited Gov. Gordon abd his staff, and the members of tlite gen eral assembly to visit them. Savan nah is famed for her princely hos pitality and on this occasion The big pot will be placed in the little one, and its like will ne’er be seeri again. Many of the members of the legisla ture have never visited this city by sea or heard old ocean roar, neither have they fathomed the mysteries of “artillery punch,” and there is therefore a rich experience! ahead for them. The occasion will over flow with pleasure, and will doubt less be one long to be remembered, j The editor of The Citizen ijvill be the guest of the city on this gjuspiei- nus occasion, and will gladly; he on hand to see and enjoy all tlni* good things. There will be a shtjut ex cursion out on the ocean in bne of the magnificent steamships -of the Central R. R. company, the immense wharves, compresses and skipping will be inspected, a trip tojTybee and an oyster and fish dinnei- at its new hotel, the interesting sights all around its beautiful suburbs jwfl) be visited, and a high old time general ly will be the main feature ’of the occasion. If artillery punqh and a too generous hospitality does not altogether obfuscate the representa tive of The Citizen lie will tin the next issue tell of what he help'd and saw, leaving out only what ho did. “Hacrnetaek,” a lasting and fragijint per fume, Price 25and 50 cents, Sold oy White head A Co, j I GEORGIA SEMIS GREETING 10 OHIO. “Glory to God in the highest,” for in Ohio there is peace and gdod will to men. Goyernor Foraker has de cided, so Mr. Thurman says, fo turn over the rebel flags, and the - people of that great state on Tuesday pro claimed that the bloody shirt must have a rest. Georgia sends ifrarer- nal greeting to the whole people of Ohio, and every son of the jCtnpire State of the South joins with the September delegation of i’arrriers and editors in the very warmest protestations of brotherly Hove.— Even the doubting Thomijts who took, with a grain of salt, the! glow ing accounts given by this visiting delegation of Ohio hospitality and the neighborly feeling of her citi zens ior the people of the Sjiuth, is now ready to own up to his? preju dice, and will endorse eveijjy word written by these captured visitors. The farmers and editors excursion in their wanderings all over that great state failed to come up with the “bloody shirt,” and they must now conclude that even tlier; it was buried out of sight. It is trijie that they found Gov. Foraker, hilt 'when he showed them his rebel hags, he remarked that he would be’willing tor us to have them again, jprovid- ed the right sort of a man injide the transfer. At {hat time his Visitors had no idea that he had Mrj Camp bell in his mind’s eye, blit only thought that he-was feeding them w’lth taffy. On that occasion a friend, and one next in authority to the governor, remarked that the flags and the old bloody shijrt were only trotted out on certai.i occa sions to be used as so much icapital in their political stock ic! trade. 111K OYSTER SUPPLY. The L T . S. coast survey has re cently demonstrated that the oyster beds on the waters con tiguous to Savannah have been undergoing gradual and sure de struction. The demand for oysters is every day increasing and there has been no effort made to guard the supply. The oyster beds have been considered, free to all, and many negroes on the coast who own nothing but a canoe and a hut spend their entire time in gather ing oysters. The consequence is therefore becoming evidently ap parent, the suoply will soon be ex hausted unless steps are taken for their preservation and cultivation. Capi„ Gordon, oV Savannah, had a bill passed in the legislature with this object in view. The oyster beds cannot be Itpft free to all, and there must be scime one interested who will look after their growth and cultivation. The oyster is no more or less than an industry, a crop which needs attention and care. If the beds along our coasts are cared for the; supply will grad ually increase, aiiid will be enough to filH the growing wants of the country. It is destined to become an important industry, and the prediction is not contradicted that le ss than twenty years it will as a source of crop income rank next to cotton. The heavy storms which have been sweeping our coasts have done much injury to the oyster beds, by the breaking of the waves over them in their destructive fury. In the near future the beds will he located in spots where there are either natural or artificial protec tion. This of course will not be done so long as the propriety is held in common. Dakota and the negro. The new state of Dakota is not to be congratulated, though she has just received the honors of state hood. For three years she has suf fered crop failures, and to-day about one-half of her population is in need of help, and her location is so isolat ed, that she has no near neighbors to come to her relief. This state of affairs is very suggestive that one who selects such a locality for a home runs very serious risks. The winters in this climate are just sim ply terrific, and it serins as Jf the seasons are mixed up w’ith a consid erable amount of uncertainty. Some of these settlers will la* forced to stand the racket anrl make the mo-t of their unfortunate surroundings, but many who can get away will go in quest of a more congenial clim ate and surer living. Were it not for the aversion that the average white man has for com ing into too dose a contact with the negro, there would he a rush for the -•outhern states from all sections of the country. We have the best country in the world, when produc tion and climate are both consider ed, and the day will come “when niggpr or no nigger” the home hun ters of other localities will come to us, and then will our brother in black be no longer regarded as the ward of lhe nation, but will have to learn the lesson ot how “to root hog or die.” A few years ago even the idea could not be tolerated that any labor could supplant the negro in the South, but a change Is rapidly coming over the spirit of our dreams, and the impression Is beginning to prevail, and is every day taking deeper root, that were the negro out of the way we would soon number among our population the representatives of the best classes of the world. Strange as it may seem to us, but it is nevertheless true, that even the most intelligent class of foreigners have a perfect horror of living in close proximity to the negro, and when they reach New York, and the alternative is presented them, the negro and the South, or the blizzards and the hardships of the far West, they every time choose the latter. This sort ot unreasonable aversion will not always last, and when it ends the day of the South’s prosperity will dawn, and what fate will be in store for the fifteenth amendment can only be left to conjecture.
