2§Kfttmsri & Calk Abo»t the hr York pVtbun Am the Successor *r Ei-Gov^mod B"»™ U. W, ni.-V JEW **«“» States. i; y Editors Telegraph and Messenger - ^he undersigned, with hundreds of other voters in Georgia, hails with real pleasure the announcement in the Atlanta Constitution of the Ctli inst.ot our highly esteemed and ... distinguished fellow citizen,-Hom-GHfford ity; "imSOG'lt waslO.OStr: and lrrlSQSdt Anderson, as a lit rand proper person to “ ’ ■*“ *“ represent the State of Georgia in the Sen ate of the United States. There is not a word in that article which is not indorsed, not only by the people of this city and county, but of this entire section of the State. Wherever high qualities, intellectual and moral, are appreciated, he stands among the foremost, and inspires that con fidence and respect which such traits ever win for their possessor. Unobtruaiveand quiet, aud in manner claiming no superi ority to the humblest citizen, yet assert ing it in spite of his modesty, by the force, 01his fine*intellect, and the kindness and generosity of a noble heart, he moves amone us daily, as a private citizen, seemingly unconscious of his owu high gifts, yet respected .and beloved by a com munity distinguished for intelligence and morality. For many, years he has thus pursued the “even tenor of his way” with talents qualifying him for the highest and most exalted stations, but apparently with no ambition but to discharge faithfully aud well every duty—social, political and moral. None but those who know Clif ford Anderson, as he is known by his neighbors and friends, can understand the influence he exerts, and the esteem in which he is held, in the circle of his ac quaintance. Whether as a lawyer en gaged in the contests of the forum, or a citizen in the discharge of his social du ties, or as a Christian illustrating the S ees of a religious life, he is same pare, incorruptible, un selfish man. Hence, the weight which bis opinions carry, upon all subjects, and with all classes aud conditions of his fellow citizens—for by tbe learned and the igno rant, the rich and the poor, the proud aud the lowly, he is, among all alike, regarded with the same sentiments of respect and deference. Aud, as in principle, so in professional life, bis diaiacter, without a stain, is a standing refutation of the scoff ing sarcasm upon the profession, that a lawyer .cannot be an honest man. If there has ever been an imputation upon Ids professional conduct, or an in sinuation that any duty which appertains to the ethics of the bar he has failed to keep from his youth up, it has never been heard in this community. As to Judge Anderson's intellectual qualities, he is the peer of the foremost men in tbo State. No one who has ever listened to one of those clear, cogent, discriminating, irresistible aignments which he never fails to make when the occasion calls for it, can fail to understand that the secret of his power before the courts and juries of the country, is the power of a fine intel lect, impelled and directed by an over present love of the truth. His style of oratory is direct, earnest and often im passioned, aud though never turning acide from the right line of his argument for mere rhetorical beauties, lie never disdains ornaments which illustrate and impress whilst they beautify and embellish. The public life of Mr. Anderson, when we consider liis great powers, -has been a very short and unambitious one. In the civil service it commenced by representing Bibb county in the lower house of the legisla ture of Georgia in 1859 and I860, and ended as a member of the Confederate Congress, which position he held at tbe time of the surrender. As a soldier lie marched -to Virginia with tbe Floyd Bifles as a private, and continued in service as a private till the fall of 1861, when he was promoted to the rank of a lieutenant. The last twelve mouths of his military service was on the staff of General A. K. Wright. Such is a mere outline of the leading in cidents in the life of this quiet, unambi- ■for the presidency Tuei .^„ting “the New England ] Ohio, in the extreme northeast comer of that State, he was in the habit of carrying it, whenever congressional elections oc curred, by overwhelming majorities. He was elected first in 1SC2, by 0,525 major- civil service reformers all over the coun- ^General Arthur is a^ra&ch'ine. in almost every sense J)f Ihcws’cfd -the extent oilliis ability lie.lias set up as_a tious, hut able and patriotic maq, He after granted to the Washington ring, the has made no stir in the world,'because'* • . -■ - — it may be that in these times, when men seek office aud not office the man, he, like many of the noblest and best men of the country, regards a “private station as the post of honor.” If elected to the United States Senate, he will makea rec ord which will confer honor upon him self, and add new lustre to Geoigia, Such is the prediction of a Democrat. THE HEW MADISON COLOSSEUM. The Sew Enterprise ef Mr. Vanderbilt and Mr. Barnon and How the Building- will Booh. The World says: Particulars were learned yesterday in regard to the Baraum Museum Company,which were" dispatched to the World from Albany, where the ar ticles of incorporation were filed on Mon day. The capital stock is $3,000,000, di vided into 30,000 shares/' of which Mr. Vanderbilt has secured $250,000 worth. The company has purchased the Madison Square Garden block for. $800,000 from the Harlem amoM company and will build an immense structure, which will include a colossemn, an opera-house, sev eral minor entertainment rooms, a muse um, a tropical garden and an observatory. The whole concern is under the manage ment of Mr. Bamum, the financial agent being the New Yorlr, New England and Western investment company, while the Farmers’ loan and trust company will act as trustob and registrar. Several members of tlie company met yesterday afternoon in tbe office of the architect, where the plans of the building were ex amined. The building will 200 by 425 feet, covering tbe entire block. It will be live stories in height, con structed of brick, Stone and iron in the most substantial manner, thoroughly fire proof, heated by steam throughout, and will contain nearly eleven acres erf availa ble Iloor room. The collosseum, or lower story, will embrace nearly the entire space beneath the building. It will be about 200 by 400 feet. It will be de voted more especially to thabdass of ex hibitions and amusements reqniring space for tlielr representation, such as chariot and hurdle races, walkingmatches, steeplc- clias s, fairs, public balls, archery and rifle matches. This portion of tbe build ing will be somewhat lower than the surface of the garden now, and may be called the basement. Bjmum’s Opera House will be on the first flbor proper. It is the intention of the company to make this the best appointed opera house in the United States. In addition there will be on the same floor a smaller theatre or lecture room, designed for musical or dramatic entertainments. The remainder of the floor will be occu pied by an aquarium, a skating rink and a zoological department. The second and third floors will be similar in size to the first, and will be devoted to the museum proper, which it is designed shall be of a more extensive and elaborate character than anything heretofore attempted, em bracing in one collection curiosities, ani mate and inanimate, from all parts of the globe. It is also designed to establish m : one or both of these apartments restau rants. The attraction will be on the fourth floor. Here there will be a tropical gar den. There will be cultivated rare trees, plants, flowers, vines and shrubbery of every zone, property inclosed and forming one immense conservatory. There are to be grand concerts every af ternoon aud evening throughout the year, and the listeners will be provided with a promenade lined on either side with re freshment table, after the European style. At the comer of the building ad joining Madison square there is to be a brick and iron tower or observatory 250 feet high, with electric lights at the' top. At the other comers there are to be large square towers, all illuminated with elec- tricity. ' "* , The plans, however, will not be filed un'il Dudley is out of office, as the man agers do not wish to injure the reputation of the building in its inception. In spite of all tbe political changes of the past twenty years, his plurality at the last election was 9,013; and he has since been chosen bythe State of Ohio to fill the-seat TnTthe United States senate from which' Mr. Thurman was dismissed. Until that time, though long recognized as one of the most-popular men in the State, lie had never consented to be a candidate for any other office than that of representative In Congress since he left the State senate to enter the army in 1861. Few men in this countiy have ever been able to look back upon zs long a succession of triumplis by the popular vote, and very few have given better evidence of fitness for high station. The New York Sun says: In consider ing tins nomination, we desire first of all to thank God for the defeat of Grant and the decisive overthrow of tbe third term con spiracy. It is an event on which the American people in a body may well offer up rejoicings to heaven; and the friends of liberty and of the rights of men In all na tions under the sun, should join with them in tlie manifestation of their heartfelt gratitude. But is Gen. Garfield such a man that patriotic citizens of tlie United States can well and wisely support him for Presi dent? Can the executive authority of the republic be safely intrusted tohim? These are the questions which every voter should now ask; and we answer calmly and em phatically that he is not such a man. The character of General Garfield can be judged by the following conspicuous facts: ‘ * When, in 1812, the Credit-Mobilier bribery End corruption among members of Congress were first exposed, Gen. Garfield* was one* among those accused. He immediately published a letter ex pressly and positively denying that lie had any share in it. Next, on January 14,1873, he appeared before tfco commit tee of the nouse of Bepresentatives, and under oath declared: “Inever owned, received, or agreed to receive any stock of the' Credit Mobilier, or of the Union Pacific rail oad, nor any dividend or profits arising from either of them.” But on January 23 nex^following, the Hon. Oak Ames was examined before the same committee, and proved by record ev idence, partly in Gen. Garfield’s own bandwriting, that Gen. Garfield had had stock in the Credit Mobilier, and that be had received dividends thereupon. Mr. Ames also testified that Gen. Garfield had visited him subsequent to the commence ment of tbe investigation by the House, and had endeavored to induce, him to swear before the committee that money thus paid him as dividends had been de livered to him asm loan, and yet at the very same time that he hail endeavored to procure this false testimony from Mr. Ames, Gen. Garfield had called upon Ames to pay- him an additional sum of money on account of the Credit Mobilier; claiming that tbe dividends he had.al ready received had not been as laige as they should have been. A perjurer, and a man who attempts to suborn peijury, is not fit to be President- One other important feature in the his tory of General Garfield is his relation to the De Golyer paving contract. One De Golyer had made a contract with the Shepherd ring in Wasliiugton to put down a quantity of. patent pavement. Gen. Garfield was chairman of the committtee on appropriations in tbe House of Bepre sentatives. In order to pay for thispatent pavement an appropriation was needed from Congress. The sum of. five thousand dollars was paid to Garfield on behalf of De Golyer, and appropriatfogs to the amount of mil Lions .of dollars were tjiere- appropriation for the De Golyer pave ment being included therein. These are some of the facts in the pub lic record of James A. Garfield, now the Republican candidate far President of the United States. And yet, notwitstanding all this, the mischiefs of electing such a man presi dent, would all seem blessings compared to the results which would have followed, the success of Graub and a third term- crats Of the country are riot satisfied with the result of,the. Chicago convention they are very hard to please. The' nominations at Chicago do not, indeed, justify the Democrats In expecting to win with the tainted candidate of a divided party. But thpy do amply justify the Democrats in expecting to win with a real represent ative of the principles of the Democratic party, upon which this natiori was pros perously governed through three-quarters of its existence, and upon which, in sub stance, peace has been re-estiblislicd since the close of the great civil war. Tlie nomina tion of Garfield is not only a compromise. It is a weak and timid compromise. ForseV- eral days it has been evident that the con tent for the nomination lay betweenGrant and some outsider who had so far devel oped no strength whatever in the conven tion. General Garfield was tlie likeliest man for the nomination, since General Garfield, besides having a qertain positive strength in the party, has excited no active enemies in the party, and, more important still, .since General Garfield fit a citizen of Ohio,' a generally Bepnblican State, which holds an election in October- The coward ice of the compromise lay in‘this last fact. When the .Republicans -consider it nec essary to nominate' a man, and as they nominated Hayes In 1876 aud as they hare now nominated'Garfield, for. the purpose of making sure of Ohio iu the local Octo ber election, they show in the clearest way that they are far. 1 'from feeling any confidence as to the result of the general election in' November. It would have been idle for tlie Chicago convention to nominate any. man who could not hope to carry Ohio. In fishing for a sprat, there fore, the Bepublicans have thrown fway their whales. *.*',,* * * As to Arthur, the World says his nomi nation simply proves how entirely igno rant politicians may be of State politics in other States than their own. He was nominated, of coarse, to strengthen the ticket in New York, and there is scarcely another conspicuous Bepublican in the State who could have so badly weakened it at so many points. > ' >i‘ < ' < lie Chicago convention, we repeat, lias opened to the Democrats the road to tlie White House,-and only willful blindness ah prevent the Democrats from taking it. New York Herald: The weakness of Mr. Garfield’s nomination lies in the fact that it is not calculated to strengthen the Bepublican party in the doubtful States. It is generally conceded that the vote of New York will decide the presidential election; but tbe selection of Mr. Garfield as the Bepublican standard bearer has no tendency to strengthen the Bepublican party in this pivotal State. He is de^- servedly admired in Ohio aud the. West, buthe has acquired no strong hold on the confidence of New York Bepublicans. The Bepublican leaders in this State, having gone into tbe. third term movement with ail their zeal, will be crippled by this tremendous mistake and by tbe loss of prestige which attends its failure, and if the Democratic party should be reunited, tlie chances are against Gen. Garfield ear ning New York, whose loss would be fa tal to bis liopes. The Bepublican party is weakened by tbe long contest at Chica go, weakened by the strenons efforts for a third term by many of its principal lead ers, weakened by its nomination ofa tick et which none of its members would have recommended or thought of in advance, and it will have a hard battle to fight if the Democratic party should make a rea sonably good nomination. ant, i this candidate for vice President lias serv ed in this capacity, and that in this ca pacity he.lujhiiy_yiQlai.ed bis obligation to The exhibition exercises of the Central High School hsvq sflready Been held. | A Telegraph and Messenger re-~ eonduct-in theqmblic interest a-Federal -poster-entered tfae-Sonth-Macon -Gram- office entrusted to his keeping.- His prostitution of the civil service to partisan ends went, in fact, to'such a length that a Bepublican administration was obliged to take notice of it and call. him to account. • Nor did his partisan virulence stop there, for he took Issue with the adminis tration, defied its authority, and was fore most in the battle for the spoils system, which was due of the most notable events in the early history of the Hayes adminis tration! It will not edify honest Kepubli- caus to read what Secretary Shermau said of Mr. Arthur and his associates in support of the attempt to remove him. In putting such a man on the ticket, without any regard to bis general lack of qualifications for so important an office, the convention humbled itself in the dust at the feet of tbe Boss of Bosses, and gave him a s weet revenge upon the influences which com bined to defeat tbe third term conspiracy.] Harmony is dearly bought at such a priCe. _• . it' v, THE CHOPS IN ENGLAND. Tbe X-ondou “Times” Acknowledges Tliat America Most Feed the Old Country, and Frges Emigration. Tbe prospects of agriculture, just now are neither decisive nor uniform. • Unless there come much and regular rain the crops will be as bad as in the worst years we have known. The fly will soon be at the turnips, and the mangel-wurzel, on which so much dependence is now placed, will not be able to strike root or to fill. It will come to nothing. The sheep that have suffered so much, aud are still suffering, from wet, innutritious food, will liave better food, but not enough of it; aud the poor- cattle that were selected by their closely- calculating owners to bear the brunt of last winter’s hardships, as they show by their hollowed flanks and pro jecting bones, will not have the opportunity of repairing their wasted forms. ' Just now many of our farms and dairies, conducted as they are ou commercial rather than patriotic principles, are not sights to show a sharp, unsympathetic, foreigner. But if the . present weather, prevails throughout this season, they will remain unpresentable, and we mufet take. our dis tinguished visitor to see farms conducted with no hope of reward in this world. We have to consider, first of all what .we can produce at most advantage, or rather at least disadvantage, in the face of the enormous and still increasing competition of Europe, America and the Australasian colonies. The extent of our difficulties may he measured by the undeniable fact that the cultivation of wheat, for its sake, is actually under trial. It is maintained by good authorities that in no part of these isles can we pro duce wheat to compete with the foreign supply. The excess of production over home consumption in North America alone is sufficient for our necessities. It in creases and will increase. We cannot hope that our long worked and exhausted acres, continually requiring the most costly renewal, and often so scant of soil that it is a pity they were ever turned up, will compete successfully with an im mense area of virgin soil, connected with us by a line of railways, inland naviga tion and ocean steamers. It has come to ibis, that we are growing wheat not for the grain but for the straw. Litter is bulky aud difficult of carriage, so it must l>e grown at our doors." _ It is becoming a serious problem what agriculturists are to do.

Conner received an elegant chair accom panied by the following explanatory note: “As the finger of time rests upon the sea son of the year that marks -your resigna tion as principal of the South Macon Grammar school, we, your associates and pdpils present yon this token as a mark of o'nr appreciation of your services and use fulness, and may your future life be as successful as the past has been, is our de sire.” We,also attended the school on the old academy lot, near the foot of Second street.’ We found the school allin place, with quite a number of patrons in atten- dauce.,:,, The building is too small for the ac commodation of the number of children who properly belong to this post, and the authorities ought to provide better if this system is to lie kept up. The teacher, Miss Lou A". Thomas, car ried the children through a; .series of ex aminations in arithmetic, spelling and grammar duririg our stay, the scholars all belonging to the 1st, 2d and 3d classes. They were small and young, but acquit ted themselves admirably. There were a few mistakes; hut attributable more to haste than to lack of proficiency. The singing and physical exercise was excellent, exhibiting a proficiency in drill rarely excelled in grown up people. The whole exercise was good, and passed off in elegant style, The following are the honors conferred: Those who have been at the head of the class the longest arc: First class—Belie Winter, who received a picture rilcely framed. Second class—Willie Martin, who re ceived abase ball and hat. third class—Annie Pound, who ceired a picture also. These arc called head marks, and the children deserve much credit for their pocseverance in securing these honors.

'BeHbikn hr - Deleptstcs—Hardeman ■ j «nd Blount At twelve o’clock, in obedience to the call of the chairman of the executive committee, tlje.Democrats of Bibb county met yesteiday at tbe court house for the election of delegates to the gubernatorial and congressional conventions., Capt, A. O. Bacon was called ' to. the chair, and W. Bi Hill, Esq., was made secretary. The meeting was opened by tbe chair 1 -' man with a few appropriate remarks. A motion was made that a committee of five be appointed, to select delegates to the At lanta convention, the said delegates to be then approved or disapproved of by the meeting. This, lias been the custom of the Democrats for some time, hut lias lately met with much opposition. Mr. Elam Christian then moved as a substitute for the-original motion, that the convention resolve itself into a committee on the whole, and proceed at once to the election of delegates. These two mo tions brought about a discussion that lasted an hour; the pro and • con was ar gued by quite a number, aud all the ad vantages and disadvantages most thor oughly established. Favoring the first motion were Messrs. R. Ai Nisbet, S; H. Jemison, B. W. Patterson aud Col. Av J. Lane. Favoring tbe substitute were Messrs. E. Christian, Thomas Willing ham, Wm. Wilson, R. F; Ousley and oth ers; It was argued that an appointment of a committee to • select delegates would save the convention: time, and trouble, and effect a satisfactory result. On the other hand it was said that the appoint ment of the committee was a roundabout way of stocking the convention, and that the county should'set an-example of open ness that would leave no room for com! inent. ■!.-,] ■>. ■< _’... ; The motion having.been put, the substi tute was then adopted. • A motion, that tbe meeting at once pro ceed to tbe election of delegates to Atlanta, having been carried, Mr. R. W. Patterson nominated twenty men -to represent the county. • The chair haying ruled that all nomina tions’ were in order, about- twenty more names were put before the meeting. During these nominations many discus sions were had, and the difficulty of select ing a body of twenty from: the nominees was presented. Finally; a motion was made that the entire number nominated bs elected delegates. This motion was carried. • * it/. | The following are the delegates to the Atlanta convention; Clifford Anderson, R. F.: Lyon, Elam Cluistian, B. C. Smith, C. Ai Tharpe, W. II. Cason, S. AV. My rick, John A. Mc Manus, AV. H, Ross, A. W. Gibson, T. D. Tinsiey, W. Dessau; A. P. AVhittlo, J.*F. Hanson, Win; Taylor, R.

Gustin, J. H. Hertz. Oh motion of B. A. Nisbet, Esq., the following was unanimously adopted Resolted'. That we, the people of Bibb county, hereby present to the people of Georgia, the name of the Hon. Thomas Hardeman as a candidate before the ap proaching Democratic convention, for the office of governor of the State of Georgia, feeling assured that the eminent services which he has rendered the State both - iD peace and war, sufficiently testify to the great ability and lofty patriotism which qualify him for the responsible duties re quired of the Chief Executive of tlie great State of Geoigia. . We point with pride to the unselfish devotion, which he has at all times displayed, in the interests of the Democratic party, aud to the untiring zeal with which he advocated these inter ests in the darkest days of our oppression as well as in the hour of our triumph. We earnestly invoke the aid and co-oper ation of our sister counties in naming him as the standard bearer of tlie Democratic party for tlie office of governor of the State of Georgia. On motion of Capt. U. E. Park, tlie delegation was instructed to vote as a unit for Hon. Thos. Hardeman, for gover nor. The meeting then proceeded to the election of delegates to the congressional convention in Milledgeville. Tim follow ing gentlemen were ' / tjdH6lefl upon and elected: Clifford Anderson, A. J. Lane, S. IL Jemison, J. F. Hanson, C. L. Bartlett, - J. H. Carstarphen, R. W. Patterson, W. H. Ross, Alex Reynolds, J. H. Hertz, (J. D. Findlay, W. C. Singleton. On motion of Capt. J. A. McManus, the delegates were Instructed to cast the vote ofBibb county for Hon. J. H. Blount, jq The selection of a new Democratic ex ecutive committee being the next iu order, Mr. W. Dessau moved that the following plan be adopted: That two representa tives be selected from each ward of the city, and one from each district of the county. Captain J. L. Hardeman moved that, as under this arrangement the city Board omissions. This body closed their labors on Friday night'last after a very interesting and/bar- monious'session. * to Uir'oq -wt; til ' Tlie work in tbe home field was fully considered and the; board will go into the appropri aliona for another year with more light and better understanding. One fact was deeply impressed upon, their minds—that the sending of inexperi enced young men into the majority: of these missions, was a grave error. They do the very best they know how, but the want of tact in oiganizing and controlling men makes half the: experiments absolute failures.;- :i . ‘ ' , ■ There aip some sections tbat.'have been missionary ground for fifty.years, and.will doubtless remain so fifty years longer, un less there is a'change in tie method of supplying these fields. I| true there is much in adaptability, bat the old axiom, “Likepriest,' like people,” is so clearly detaiOlistrated in tills’ work, .that some thing must be done to elevate the stand ard of thought and the aims of life in these peculiar sections. V'.”" '• There must be more liberal appropria tions to. those, places in actual need, and less money expended [to supplement sala ries, either to satisfy certain "appointments or' certain preachere. /This subject was diligently looked into and- some wise sug!, gestions made as to manner of procedure for tbe future. - ' Idagltt - In reference to the work in this city, much was said, and some satisfactory re sults reached. ,The presiding elder noti fied tbe board that he would ask for' an appropriation for a city missionaiy, inde pendent of the number of ministers now ; engaged in the city. A proposition was made to remove Jones Chapel, located on Bassett. Hill,- in South Macon, to a more eligible position. . The question was turned over to tbe presiding elder of the Macon district to adopt such measures as may lead to. the result. The-Albany mission had been so ad- mirably developed under the ministrations of Rev. H, B. Fielder that it would not need the assistance of the board after this J' ear - . . - The rest of the mission appointments are to remain under the care of the hoard. The treasurer; Rev. F. A. Branch, re ports a decided improvement,in the col lection of missionary money this season over that of last year. '-Collections for 1S79, $800; collections for 18S0, $2,182.87.
