•sacgiu HWkty sroht 3fmmval & i»E* The Water Fuel. A New York correspondent of tbe •Charleston Netcs and Courier gives this highly Interesting account of tire new fuel composed of naphtha and water: The first public experiments were made with an old locomotive at College Point, Long Island, and were so extraor dinary in their apparent results that -tlic newspapermen gathered to report what they saw dared not do more than give a bare recital of what took place, leaving to scientific men the task of deciding wheth er or not the invention really had the enormous value claimed for it, and which it seemed to possess. I>r. Charles Hol land, a chemist and inventor, con ceived in 1850 the idea of using the constituent gases of naphtha and water as fuel. Dr. Holland is not a man of much cducatiou outside of his special know! edge as a chemist; he made some money on patents for smelting furnaces, and turned his attention to wltat he calls the great work of his life—inventing a per fect and inexpensive fuel. Of late years numberless machines have been devised to bum the carbon of oils; scientists often say that liquid fuel is the fuel of the future. The infinite amount of water at our disposal (there is tcu times as mncli liquid FUEL IX THE WOULD as solid) suggests at once the economy which would be effected by the use of these materials iu place of coal. Water, every one knows, is composed of two parts of hydrogen and one part of oxy gen. Hydrogen is higlily inflammable, and gives in burning one of the hottest flames known. If tliere was some easy means of separating tl>e hydrogen of wa ter from the oxygen the problem of a cheap fuel would be solved. This is what Dr. Holland claims to have done, The machine which he has invented to bum the gases of naphtha and water is a two-chambered, cast iron retort, shaped like a prism and varying insize according to the work to be done. For a retort large enough to give heat for au ordinary cooking stove the prism is abont eight Inches long and five wide. Between the two chambers and the retort there is connection whatever. Naphtha is carried into one chamber by a pipe the size of a lead pencil, and water into the other by a similar pipe. But be fore introducing the oil and gas into the retort the retort itself is heated by means of a little naphtha, a spoonful of which is burned iu a saucer or other holder be neath the retort. When tlie retort is heated the oil aud water are introduced drop by drop into their respective cham bers. The naphtha is immediately vola tilized by the heat an'tl becomes naphtha gas, a gas which bums brilliantly hut g ves but little heat. This gas escapes om its chamber in a long, tbiu flame. The water in the other chamber becomes in the meantime superheated steam and issues from a nipple so arranged as to throw a spray of steam into the naphtha flame issuing from the other ripple. Superheated steam has a peculiar property of which Dr. Holland lias made use: Proneness to separate into its elements, hydrogen and oxygen. By introducing this superheated steam into burning naph tha gas a decomposition is effected, and the hydrogen and oxygen being set free are at liberty to unite with the elements which have the greatest chemical affinity for them. Thus it is that the oxygen selects the naphtha gas aud serves to make a com plete combustion of the hydro-carbons and carbo-hydrates of which this naphtha consists. By turning naphtha ill the open air in. the ordinary"\vay as a fuel, it is n ible to obtain only ten per cent, of it le shape of heat, so to speak, the oth er 90 per cent, being wasted in the shape of smoke, clinkers, gases, cinders and so forth. In this apparatus of Dr. Holland’s the supply of oxygen from the water'is so great that every particle of the naphtha is burned, and no smoke, cinders or gas comes from the flame. The- hydrogen set free from the water gets enough oxygen from the surrounding airto bum furiously. Now hydrogen produces four times as much heat during combustion as the same weight of carbon does. Therefore, not only does Dr. Holland get the entire com bustion of the carbon, but he gets from bis water fourtimes as much heat as from the PERFECT COMBUSTION of his carbon. The correctness of this calculation has been verified repeatedly by the following experiment: A gallon of gold water in a kettle was placed over one of Holland’s small retorts and brought to a boiling heat in four and a half minutes; the same amount of cold water was placed over as hot a fire as could be made with clean nut coal iu a small stove and brought to a boil in twenty-one minutes, or about five times as long as was neces sary with the new apparatus. In the ex periment made last month at College Point, Dr. Holland was only allowed to use one of the oldest engines on the Long Island railroad; it was out of order and was a very hard engine to fire np. The fireman who usually ran witli it never al lowed less than two hours to get up steam. Dr. Holland put two of his little retorts into the fire-box and connected them with his tanks of naphtha and cold water. In forty minutes after lighting up the steam guage marked sixty pounds’pressure. The engine then pulled a passenger car, in which were fifty persons, a distance of six miles and back at an average rate of from thirty to thirty-five miles an hour. A. K. Owen, of Chester, Pa.; J. Gar cia, of Havana; two passengers, whose names could not be learned, who were to There was a chorus of admiration from arrive at St. Augustine to-day. Besides there it was, ready at any moment, and with no ashes or grates to clean out. THE COST of this wonderful fire is about twenty-one cents a week for a stove to do the work -of au ordinary family, no fuel or kindling of any kind being required except the naphtha and water. Besides cooking the dinner at a nominal cost, Dr. Holland makes illuminating gas of the finest quality by introducing a separate stream of naphtha into a third retort fastened to the main one. The heat of the fire vola tiles the naphtha into gas which is car ried to a gas receiver, and may be honied without any purifying or washing. The fire costs nothing, and three gallons of naptha makes about one thousand feet of gas, at a cost, therefore, of nine cents. The possible danger of explosion from oaplh- tlia may prevent tlic immediate intro duction of the retoit into private families where ignorant servants might find too many ways of exterminating themselves with it. But in ail places where -steam is required—in mills and factories and especially in the South where coal is scarce—this new fuel promises to work a revolution. As yet no criticisms have been made which question the value oi the invention if it can he used without danger. In a few more weeks enough will be known-about the matter to deter mine whether it is really one of the great inventions of the age or not. I confess that, while inclined to look upon it as something too good to be true, I am greatly impressed with what I have seen ot it. Holland will leave Edison far be hind in the race for fame if his retort turns out well. The City of Vera Cruz. New York, September 5.—A special from St. Augustine, Fla., reports the arri val there from Halifax riverof seven men, survivors of the wreck of the Vera Cruz. One is O. K. Owen, a passenger; the oth ers are an engineer, oiler and four sea men. Talbot, one of the seamen, gives tbe following account of the disaster: About 30 miles off shore we began to ship heavy seas and water was found in the hold. As fast rs we could clear her she filled again by another sea. This state of things soon made the fires bum low, and we could not make steam to keep her head in the wind. We then put out a heavy drag forward and managed for a while to keep her into the wind. Everything was in a panic,life-boats were cut loose ready for action, aud all hands supplied with life-preservers. At daylight Sunday, boats were lowered aud manned. They no sooner got tlieir cargo than they were overturned ami smashed to atoms against the steamer, all hands being swept away or their lives dashed ont against the vessel's side. Boat after boat was dashed to pieces in the same manner, until only a few of the passengcis would venture to leave the steamer. The captain and officers lost their lives in one of tbe boats. At half-past five in the morning a heavy sea struck the steam er forward and crashed her fore and aft. All fires and lights were out, and every thing was iu ncrfect bedlam—tlic people screaming am. shrieking for help on ail sides. The steamer was broken in two, and, after a few- surges, she foundered ami went down, carrying with her all who were on board. When I rose to tlie surface I could see now and then pieces of drift stuff, and one or two men and women. They made no effort to save themselves, and were drowned in my sight. A mother and daughter were clasped to each other dur ing the gale and they came ashore that way drowned. From tliat time till fonr o'clock in the afternoon I could see occasionally one or two men, as they rode upon the crest of ‘the waves. It was useless to try to hold on to anything as the waves would tear it from your grasp and drive you two or three fathoms uuder the surface, and upon regaining it you would have to grasp something else. I was compelled to dive or dodge i way from pieces of drift-stuff, which would have killed me if I were hit by them. , After four o’clock I saw no one. I came ashore on the Florida coast about 7:30 Monday morning, having been about twenty-six hours in the water. I soon found my other companions, as we all came ashore about the same time, al though some distance apart. Gen. Torbert was aboard. The last time I saw him alive he was afloat witli Mr. Owen, who was saved with us. I saw him again dead at Port Orange,where he came ashore insensible. A boy fouud him and dragged him up as far as he could, and ran for assistance. When they g ot hack he was dead. Bruises on his ead indicate that he was struck by drift stuff and stunned. His body was buried on the farm at Dayton. One of our number swam from the wreck without the aid of a life-preserver. We are all more or less bruised from the striking and buffetiug of the seas and driftwood. It will gratify the friends of tlie drowned passengers aud crew to know that letters have been fouud and thatthey will be retained until further inquiry is made respecting them. Mauy trunks have come ashore and been rifled, but it is believed all personal property can be recovered. Word has been received here that three more men have been saved further south. The following are the saved passengers, as far as cau be learned: Sultan their judgment on the means of bringing to a satisfactory settlement the Greek and Montenegrin fron tier questions, on the administrative -organization of the European provinces •of"Turkey, and on the principal reforms required in the Asiatic provinces inhabit ed by the Armenians. For the attain ment of the objects iu view I continue to place- reliance in tbe fact that the concert of Europe has been steadily maintained in regard to the eastern question, and that the powers which signed the treaty of Berlin are pressing upon the Sublime Porte with ail the authority which be longs to their united action measures which in their belief are best calculated to insure tranquillity in the East. “I have not been unmindful during the few months which have elapsed since I last addressed you of the considerations which I stated would guide my poli cy on the northwest frontier of my Indian empire. Measures have already been taken for a complete military evacuation ofuortheru Afghanistan and some pro gress has been made toward the pacifica tion and settlement of the oouutry. A renewal of hostilities by the Afghans un der Ayoob Khan has rendered necessary further military operations iu southern Afghanistan. The prompt measures taken by the government of India for the relief of the garrison of Candaliar, and the conspicuous ability and energy dis played by my officers and troops in the execution of those measures resulting in the brilliant victory recently gained by the gallant force under tlio command of Sir Frederick Roberts, will, I trust, speedily bring to an honorable termination the war in that division of the countiy. “I regret that it has not hitherto been possible to give you such information of tlie general state of the indian finances, and recent miscarriages in presenting an account of the military expenditure, as you would justly require before entering ou practical consideration of the subject. You may, however, rest assured that I shall redeem my pledge to supply you with this information at the earliest pe riod in my power. “ No advance has recently been made in the project of a South African confed eration; uor could any advantage arise from endeavors to press it forward, except iii proportion to the favorable movement of public opinion in that portion of the empire. Tlie geueral state of aiiairs in South Africa is, however, on the whole, satisfactory, exce;»t in Basutoland, where I trust that a moderate and conciliatory policy may allay the agitation caused by the enforcement of tlie disarmament act. ‘•Gentlemen of the House of Commons, I tender you my thanks for the liberal provision which you have made to meet the charges of public service. “My lords and gentlemen, I acknowledge, with thankfulness to the Almighty, tbe happy continuance during several weeks of tbe fine weather for securing the har vest, which gives, in many places, reason able promise of abundance. I am thus enabled to anticipate both further revival of trade and some addition to the revenue Of the country for the year, anti I dwell with especial pleasure upon the probable improvement in the condition of the peo ple in Irelaiid who have so seriously suf fered from previous failure of crops. “I rejoice also to observe that, notwith standing the lateness ot tlie period at which you began your labors, your inde fatigable zeal and patieuce have enabled you to add to the statute book some val uable laws. I refer particularly to your settlement of long contested questions re lating ! o tbe subject of burials, to tlie edu cation act and tbe act for better deter mining tbe liability of employers, and to to these I would add tbe act relative to ground game, the repeal of the malt duty, savings banks act, postoffice money orders act, and measures for bettering the condi tion of merchantmen and providing for the safer carriage of grain cargoes. I trust that these measures may, under kind Providence, contribute to the welfare aud prosperity of my people.” During the ceremony of prorogation, of members of the House of Commons about sixty were present, iuciudiug Premier Gladstone. Of members of tlie House of Lords,besides the five royal commissioners, only one Liberal and two Conservative peers were present, together with about thirty-five ladies, uone of whom were peeresses. The north galleiy of the House of Lords was filled with specta tors. The ceremony commenced at ten minutes pa->t two. Parliament was pro rogued until the 24tli of November next. the scientific men present, who asserted these passengers were a young lady, an that they did not believe wood or coa old lady and three men, whose names could be made to fire up the eDgine so could not be learned, that it would run at all, the flues being .

Drumgoid, fourth assistant tlic retort accomplished iu such disadvan tageous circumstances proved to them its merits. When the engine was running there were no sparks, uo cinders, no smoke, no sulphurous gases. The aver age expense of running an engine with coal is ftom seven to twelve cents a mile. Dr. Holland is confident that the same work can be done in a belter manner witli his retorts at an expense of from three to four cents a mile. On down grades, when no power is wanted, the fire can be com pletely shut off by turning the valves con trolling the oil and water pipes, or it can be reduced or increased. Other advan tages will suggest- themselves to any one familiar with railroads. The absence ot sparks alone would be worth about $2,- 000,000 to this country, that value of tim ber and other property being annually de stroyed by fire from engine sparks. To passengers • THE ABSENCE OF OAS AND CINDERS will be a great boon, especially on tho elevated roads of New York City where the .annoyances from these causes are in tolerable. Dr. Holland’s object in com ing to New York was to induce railroads to use his extorts. His success has been so complete that within two weeks five roads are to give them atrial, consequent ly the use of the retort for stoves and ranges in private houses has received but little attention and is only now brought forward when the application of the in vention to locomotives seems to be as sured. I went yesterday to see its appli cation to stoves and ranges in a building hack of the Astor House. An ordinary kitchen stove of medium size was put in the centre of the room, and in the fire pot wu placed a small retort, which was con nected witli the tanks of naptha and wa ter. Tbe pipe conveying the oil is filled with many layers of line wire gauze, which prevents a too large flow of oil, al lowing it to trickle into the retort only drop by drop. A little oil was placed in a tin saucer beneath, the retort, and a match applied. In a minute the retort was hot enough to admit the oil and wa ter. No sooner was this done than the inside of tho fire pot filled with allot flame of a peculiarly clear character; there was absolutely no smell from ‘t and no smoke; after burning an hour the fire bricks were as clean as before the fire was lighted. It was hotter than any coal fire, aud could be controlled at will by ad mitting more or less oil and water." As to its cooking capacity tlie oven was heat ed sufficiently in five minutes to begin cooking a piece of beef weighing twenty- five pounds, which was thoroughly roast ed in one hour and fifteen minutes. Chickens were broiled in five minutes, and porter house steak was done to a turn In five minutes. Tlie instant the stove’s work was lone out went tlic fire, and engineer; John Greenfield, boatswain; Jas. H. Kelly, seaman; Clias. Smith, second assistant engineer. Three chil dren were saved, but refused to give their names. Savannah, Sept. C.—A special to the Morning Neics, from Jacksonville, says six seamen and passengers from tlie wrecked Vera Cruz reached that place from St. Augustine on Saturday after noon. They with four others—two sea men and two passengers—are supposed to be the only survivors. They report that the cyclone struck the steamer Saturday, forty miles this side of Cape Canaveral, thirty miles oil the, shore, at four o’clock. The deck load* was washed overboard, and tbe seas swept the deck clear. At two a. ns., Sun day, the water reached the engine rooms and extinguished the fires. At five a. m., the captain was washed overboard aud tbe first and second males killed while lowering the boats, and by six o’clock the vessel foundered. The passengers and crew were provided with.life preservers, hut many were killed and crushed in the wreck. The survivors were washed ashore at Daytona and Port Orange. Several bodies were buried. Twelve wrecks are reported, twosteam- ers aud ten sailing vessels, among them tlie schooner Ada J. Simonton, from Pen sacola to Boston, timber laden. All saved. Twelve of the crew of a Nor wegian bark got ashore on Saturday near tlie St. Jolm’s bar. Tlie coast for 100 miles is strewn with wrecks and goods of all descriptions. The survivors of tlie Vera Cruz leave for Savannah, en route to New York. Three ladies and two seamen were buried at Matauzas inlet Saturday. Queen Victoria’s Speech in Pro- roguine Parliament London, Sept. 7.—Parliament was pro rogued to-day. The following was Her Majesty’s speech, as read by the royal commissioners: “My lords and gentlemen, it is with great satisfaction that I find myself at length enabled to release you from your arduous labors. “I continue to receive assurances of the most friendly character from all foreign powers. The failure of the Sublime Porte to execute according to its engage ment the plan agreed upon in April last for the determination of the Ottoman frontier lying toward Montenegro, has caused delays’ in the settlement of that question, and the treaty of Berlin Vermont Election. Rutland, Vt., September 8.—Re turns from 71 towns, about one-third of the State, show a Republican gaiu over 187C of 2,0(52. This ratio throughout the State will give over 29,000 Republican majority. Burlington, Vt., September S.—Re turns meagre, but point to the election of the Republican ticket by a slightly in creased majority over the vote of 1S70. Burlington, Vt., September S.—Ab bott, Republican representative, is elected by 198 majority, against 1(51 in 1878. Bennington couuty elects 13 Republican representatives out of 17—a Republican gaiu of 3 over 1878. Indications are that the Republican county ticket is elected, but the vole is close upon Thatcher for senator aud Bar ton for sheriff. Montpelier, Sept. 8.—Returns show Randall far behind his ticket for Con gress. Joyce undoubtedly elected by a largely increased majority. The first Congressional district, votes as far a3 heard from: Joyce, (Republi can) 8,798; Randall, (Democrat) 3,097; Martin, (Greenback) 35. Second district—Tyler, (Republican) 10,940; Campbell, (Democrat) 4,345; Mead, (Greenback) 437. Thirl district—Grant, (Republican) 8,102; Currier, (Democrat-»• 4,120; Tar- bce, (Greenback) S20; scattering, 100. Members legislature—Republicau 131, Democrats 10. Brattleboro, Vt., Sept. S.—Not withstanding the hard campaign woik, the returns show that 300 less votes were polled than were on the check list, and the Republican majority falls off six from four years ago. Famliam received 940 and l'helps 299, a gain of twenty-one for the Republicans and twenty-six for the Democrats. Tyler, candidate for Congress from tlie second district, and director of the ruined First National bank, received G51 votes as against upwards of 900 iu 1870. Tyler’s vote in the county is mate rially Increased over two years ago, though he runs behind his ticket in every town. Burlington, Vt., September 8.—One huudred and fifty towns have been heatd from and give a majority of 17,000. On this basis the Republican majority over ail will be about 22,500 and tlieir plurality about 27,000. The legislature will have but one Democratic senator and tlic House is overwhelmingly Republican. Bellows Falls, Vt., September 8.— In RocKinghani, owing to a split of the Republicans, the Democrats elected their representative, Charles Smith. White Riveb Junction, Vt., Septem ber 8.—Returns are coming in slowly, but are favorable to the Republicans. 170 towns heard from give the following result: Farnham, Republican, 37,840; Phelps, Democrat, 17,058; Heath, Greenbackcr, 1,212; scattering 3—Faruham’s majority, 19,373. The same 170 towns in 1870 gave Fairbanks, Republican, 35,737; Bingham, Democrat, 1(5,791; scattering, 478. The complexion of the legislature, as per vote received, is 139 Republicans to 14 Demo crats. The towns to he heard from will increase the Republican gubernatorial and congressional vote materially. Bennington, Vt., September 8.—Full returns from Bennington county give Farnham, Republican, for governor, 2,7(50, and Phelps, Democrat, 1.752—Republi can majority, 1,003. Mr. Joyce’s major ity for congress will reach 1,100. Ed ward L. faibley is re-elected probate judge by 1(50 majority, over Gardner, Democrat. The Democrats elected 4 representatives and tlie Republicans 13. The Republicans also elect both senators from Bennington county. AGRICULTURAL. Letter from Geueral Browne. EXPERIMENTS. There are many cheering indications on every hand that our people are becoming awake to the value of education and ex perience in agriculture, and that the num ber of those who deride improvement aud the application of science to tlie culture of the soil, is rapidly diminishing. It is not long ago since farmers who passed for men of sense declared that deep plowing is killing the laud and the stock; that sub- soiling our heavy clay lands is utterly worthless; that commercial fertilizers do not pay; that clover will not grow in Georgia, and that agricultural education is nonsense. Now there arts very few. whatever their practice may he, who be lieve in the efficacy of scratching the soil with a blunt scooter and calling it plow ing; who do not recognize the great value of subsoiliug clay soils; who do not ap preciate the profit in the use of commer cial fertilizers, and who will not admit that in farming, like every other pursuit, education is essential to success. The va’ue of careful, intelli gent and enlightened observation of all the details of agriculture, which is called experiment, is being rapidly appreciated by men who laughed at these experi ments ten or twelve years ago as “book farming,” and who now admit that the published results of these experiments have contributed to farmers a mass of in formation which teaches ns not only what we shall do and follow, but what we shall leave undone and avoid. To maintain and improve the fertility of our lands, to show how to get rid of superfluous water; to cultivate the land to the best advantage and in the most economical manner; to collect and apply the best, and most suitable manures; to demonstrate which are the best farm implements; to choose the best stock, and to feed them in tho most beneficial manner; to select the best seed, and harvest the crops with most profit, are among the subjects to which men of brains, zeal and energy have devoted time, at tention and money for the purpose of ex periment—the discovery of truth, aud the adaptation of the truth, when discovered, to practical ends. These experiments have already worked great practical good to agriculture, and the result in the near future will be still more marked. Their object is to search for truth, to teach it, and to warn against falsehood. In the one matter of commercial fertilizers, by exposing those that were adulterated and worthless, and protecting the farmer against trickery and misrepresentation, how can we calculate the benefits which scientific experiments have conferred upon ;he agricultural community? For these beu. nts we are largely, if not rnginly, in debted to tlie agricultural colleges, where seveial series of experiments are continually being made, in which the light of science and actual experience are combined. Were the legislature of Geor- ia to endow tlie State College of Agri culture as liberally as a distinguished Georgian recently proposed, in ten years tlie value of the aid which the college would aflord in developing the resources of tbe soil, and thus adding to the aggre gate wealth of the State, would be vastly ".-eater than the endowment. I hope the recommendations of Dr. W. L. Mitcheli’s recent able address in be half of tiie ueeds of the University on this subject, will he carefully read and heeded. Before long I propose to write a few lines in regard to the importance of ex perimental stations. fodder. I have been of tlie opinion for a long time that fodder is one of the most expensive crops we raise. Without ex pressing any opinion as to whether or not, as some contend, the loss of corn by pulling, fodder is greater than tlie value of the fodder when pulled, it is certain that when we take into account the slow and tedious process of foddei pulling, the extreme heat of the weather, the risk of loss or injury to the fodder, etc., etc., tlie case against fodder is very strong. Cora that will yield twelve or thirteen bushels ser acre will generally give about one lundred and twenty or one hundred and Ifty pounds of fodder. A good hand working faithfully will pull about two hundred pounds of fodder iu a day. One acre of corn forage or drilled corn, properly prepared, heavily manured, and carefully harvested, will produce, it is es timated, fully as much and as good rough foo l as the fodder of oue hundred aver age acres of corn. The difference ill cost is manure, even if the belief be ground less or exaggerated as to the injury to corn from pulling fodder. COTTON PICKING. It happens very often that a cotton crop which lias been planted and cultivated with energy, judgment and care, is gath ered in a careless and slovenly manner, with material damage to the value of the product of our year’s labor. Prompt, clean picking and good ginning will al ways pay handsomely, even though they may take more time than the “fast pick, ing,” by which hulls, trash, leaves, etc., are gathered with the cotton and ginned witli it, to the depreciation of the staple and its market value. The difference in the price paid for clean cotton as compared with “ trash ” cotton often amounts to one and a half to two cents a pound. Cottou gathered damp should be sunned and aired before it is put away in larger quantities. EVE, BARLEV AND OATS. This is the montli to prepare and sow rye, barley and oats. Let every farmer in Georgia remember it. l : onatust: WliPn such men as Hen.-y R.

In the early history of the States there epped upon the records of her history a boy with a little hatchet—a hatchet that didn’t need any grinding, for it was very sharp. With it he cut his father’s cherry- tree, and owned it to his faee. He was for this frank avowal transmitted to pos terity as a bright example for emulation. The scene changes. Another footfall upon the boards of the theatre, auother lad rushes frantically in upon an unsus pecting audience with tlie cry of “No- Axe.” The murmur goes around: Who accuses you of it?—tell us who accuses you of being tlie bearer of an axe, or a “little hatcliet?” Was it Mr. Conscience that accused you—or who? It certainly isn’t true that you have a little axe hid about your person, because it would be tlie cherry tree you would attack, and not the genus Norwood ? It can’t be that the first wails of the “political infant” “No-Axe,” in which he addresses conservatively the conserva tives—are to be turned into the rabid ac cusation of “stealing” against Norwood, who stands endorsed -by Alex. Stephens and Thomas F. Bayard. It will now be in order for “No-Axe” to deny that his first prominent connection with political life was rewarded with a political office. Also to deny that Colquitt and he only indorse such portion ofScnatorNorwood’s civil rights speech as will inflame the minds of our colored population. Also deny that the solid South teemed with praises of Senator Norwood while in office. Also to deny that the following pure men indorse Norwood, viz.: Rev. J. R. Respess, Gen. Eli Warren, Gen. A. R. Lawton, Hiram Warner, and others. Also to deny that a bad example was given by the Colquittites iu annoying Norwood when introducing the debate in Macon. Also to deny that Norwood was treated badly by Colquittites in Covington, aud that D. E. Butler was insulted after di viding time with Gen. Gordon in Millcdgc- ville. Also, in order to deny that, like the doctor who could only cure fits, and had to produce fits before he conld efleet a cure, so Colquitt has to throw his pa tients into a military spasm, even when a sheriff's posse could have been furnished by the good people of old Spalding instead of an armed company; or facts and fig ures could have been given to the people of Georgia instead of a military harrangue in vindication of official tuts.

But few men in the great throng had ever seen him before, knowing him only by the record of his glorious deeds on the tented field. No man on all God’s acres, is more beloved than General Gor don, and the cheering was a personal tribute to himself, as well as to ills friend, Governor Colquitt, in whose de fense he was here. We need not, and will not, follow Gen. Gordon through his argument, as he took up the charges against Gov. Colquitt, oue after another, and answered them, we must think, to the satisfaction of every unprejudiced mind. The anti-Colquitt men do not agree in the charges against the governor. Gen. Toombs says his ad ministration is all right except the ap pointment of Joe Brown, while Mr. Nor wood s£$s the appointment of Joe Brown was all right, but otherwise his adminis tration is all wrong. But most of our county readers heard Gen. Gordon, and those who have not will find in Gov. Col quitt’s letter in reply to Mr. Norwood a lull text of the general’s speech, so far as the issues of the canvass are concerned. The greater portion of his speech was di rected to the vindication of Alfred H. Colquitt against tho persistent and malig nant aspersions on his private character, manufactured by bad men for tlie sole purpose of revenge and office, and repeat ed and circulated by men who boast of tlieir honor, their manhood and their love of virtue. In tills vindication the speaker rose to tlie summit of eloquence. His burning words and earnest manner convinced every fair-minded man that lie -was sincere and fortified by truth. When he came to speak oi the reasons impelling him to resign his seat in the Senate and told the simple story of Ms noble deeds of charity for the wounded soldiers aud their wives and little ones, and how his pnrse was ever open to re spond to the almost daily appeals for help, great strong men shed tears as women do. The whole speech was masterly and gave tbe utmost satisfaction to the friends and supporters of Gov. Colquitt. The effects of it will he heard in thunder tones from the ballot box in Baldwin, in October. After the general closed a large portion of the audience left. Many who did so retired for dinner, hut all the colored men, several hundred, leftin a body. Mr. Butler spoke his piece, but it fell like a bucket cf ice water on tlie crowd. Personal.—Should this meet the eye | He could not, bad he been more gifted as of the individual who created a disturb- • a speaker, or better fortified by facts, have lias not yet taken effect in the other J ance in church last Sunday by his contiu- 1 stemmed tlie torrent Gordon had set iu poiftts of importance which remained j lied coughing, he will confer a favor on motion. If hq pleased his friends and opc-i at the commencement of the session. The governments which were parties to that treaty have communicated to the him. Savannah.—Chronicle and Conotitit Governor Colquitt. For Colquitt.—Griffin News: Col, Herbert Fielder, of Cuthbert, was in the city yesterday. He was an anti-Colquitt man before the convention met in Atlan ta, but he is now a strong supporter of Cov. Co,quit!, and says that if the elec- lion wa3 confined strictly to the Demo cratic vote of Georgia, Colquitt’s majority would be twenty-five or thirty thousand. What can He Say.— Union and Re corder: We can’t see, for the life of us, what ammunition Mr. Norwood can use on the stump against his opponent. The governor's letter spiked every gnu in his battery, aud yet Mr. Norwood goes on shooting just the same as ever. He re minds us of the little boys shooting chi na berries out of their pop-guns. They reload with the same . berries they have fired. Of course the report and effect gets Weaker at every repetition. Rut the boys think it is better than uo shooting at all. The same paper remarks: “Ex-Gov- eruor Smith has developed into a veiy un favorable nature. lie eats his bread and butter out of an office given him by Gov- erner Colquitt, and then rides around the ecuutry abusing him—and mind , you, abusing him for a condition of things originating under his own bad manage ment of public affairs. In moral philoso phy such men are styled monsters.” Norwood at Macon.—The Atlanta Post says: Norwood tore Colquittism to a frazzle at Macon, last night, aud excited enthusiasm to the highest pitch. A cor- respondent of the Constitution says that Colquitt was “wholly unembarrassed’' iu his reply. It was the tranquil stupor of a lamb led to slaughter. No Nomination for Governor bv the Republicans. The Republicau State convention, at Atlanta, was very far from being a har monious assemblage. Mr. Norcross ad vocated Norwood, and said Mr. Jewell did the same. This elicited a protracted and acrimonious discussion, ending in the refusal of the convention to endorse that gentleman, and tlie adoption of a resolu tion declining to make any nomination for governor. A majority of the body, on the' principle of choosing tlie least of two evils, seem to prefer Gov. Colquitt. Jackson McHenry, of Fulton, said : “We must look at both these men Governor Colquitt has done some little jood for us; but, my God, don’t talk to me of Norwood. It scares me to hear about him. [Laughter.] They are circu lating a little old thing that is an insult to the intelligence of our race. It has a nigger with a ball and chain on. [Cheers.] Why didn't they put a white man on there? Haven’t they got any iu tlie chain gang? EJ Cox is there, and if that crowd gets in he will be pardoned out, Norwood says he’s opposed to Colquitt because he preaches to niggers. I’m op posed to him because lie don’t. [Great cheering.] This Norwood crowd is the worst Democrats of the two. The only difference between these independent Democrats and the regulars is that the regulars are sheep with horns on before they get into office, and tbe independents’ boms grow out afterwards. [Great en thusiasm.] On a call of the districts the following Garfield electors were placed in nomina tion: State at large—Janies Adkins; alter nate, W. B. Higginbotham; George S. Thomas; alternate," E. T. Flemming. First district—A. N. Wilson; alternate, Floyd Guelson. Second district—none. Third district—W. P. Pierce; alternate, E. Seward Small. Fourth district—J. N.

They at once formed themselves into a joint slock company for the time, and went fur that freight with a vim. During August 30 and 31, they kept the matter of the wreck a profound secret, and it was a secret well kept, for it was not until the night of tlic 31st of August, that the news reached the city. Iu the meantime, our industrious pilots had worked both day and night, like beavers. Having entire possession of both beach aud cargo, they managed to have many goodly piie3 stored up at dif ferent poiuts of the beach, worth thou sands of dollars. Several trunks belonging to the ill-fated passengers came ashore in good order, ouly to be broken open and rilled. One evidently belonged to a lady of wealth, for it was filled with costly silk dresses and clothing ot the finest order, and laces n orth many a dollar. A gold watch and cl s’ l, also two valuable bracelets, were found in this trunk. In another trank a large pocket book, well filled with hills, was found by these fortunate pilots. In fact they had a bonanza, and they worked it for all it was worth, having gold watch es, diamonds, well filled wallets, elabor ate clothhig and many tons of valuable freight as tlieir reward. Indeed the lat ter was in such vast proport ions that teams were employed for several days in haul ing their find, aud large lighters were filled with produce. As before stated, the secret was faith fully kept Monday and Tuesday, but when tlie matter leaked out, late on Tues day night, the whole city was alive with excitement. Eveiybody that had a boat or could borrow one or pres3 oue into service, hied away to the beach. Nor was this wrecking fever confined to Minorcans aud negroes, but the busi ness men and clerks for the time being turned wreckers, and the beach was thronged with auxious hunters for the cast-up treasures of tlie sea. Several bodies were washed ashore. After being inspected and plundered, they were bur ied in the sand on tlie beach. The corpse of a young lady came ashore, on whose person was a dress of rich silk, aud on her finger was a valuable solitaire dia mond ring. She was also buried on the beach, after being rifled of her valua bles. of A Silver Provision.
