Savannah News: We copied au arti
cle yn«tnrrimy fmm tlia. Jji,nny~£aulh~in-
regard to the invention of railroad tipie
tables, attributing it to the late Dr. Purse,
oTtHscfty. The writer evidently alluded
to-the late lion. Thomas fktree,jofthis
city, wlio'Was for a numBea 6f yeats' sU-
pcriutendeijt of the Central railroad. .Dp
to the time of his administration, railroad
trains.were njn almost,-by chance, and
*Mr. Putse' invented his time table, which,
he not only used" on'his bwft road, but
■which he took great pains to have adopted
on other roads, and thus organized a sys
tem of running trains which has; never
been superseded.
Gwinnett Herald: A young roan by
the name of Batter, who worked at John
Perry’s mill in Walton county, was liter
ally sawed to pieces last week. He was
hearing off lumber from the saw while it
Was running, and, in taking' a piece of
timber off, It came in contact with the
saw, which jerked him forward upon It.
His left leg was cut off entirely just above
the knee, the right leg was disjointed at
the knee, and liis right hand sawed to
pieces. His body was terribly bruised.
He lived about sis hours, suffering terri
ble torture.
Augusta Chronicle: John Kelly
made a patriotic speech in the Democratic
State convention in Nety York yesterday.
He referred glowingly to Ben Hill’s Tam
many Hall speech, and showed up with
pride the handsome treatment of the col
ored people of Georgia, where 70,000 col
ored children attend public schools, and
taxes on two millions of property are
paid by colored men. Gov. Colquitt’s
administration will be of inestimable
value to the National party North, and
will be received with gratilication by the
people of Georgia.
Savannah News: We learn that Rev.
R. J. Corley, the beloved pastor of
Trinity Methodist Church, who met with
such a severe and serious accident in get
ting off a tiain at Mount Airy in July last,
is expected home this week. He has not
entirely recovered from the effects of his
great injury, and his strength is still im
paired. We regret to hear that the jnjury
is so serious as to permanently cripple
him, the injured leg being an inch or so
shorter than the other.
Chilli cot he (O.) Express: The
meeting of Saturday evening last, at the
City Hall, when that gallant gentleman
from Georgia, It. JK. Kenuon, addressed
the largest assemblage of the canvass,
was one to be remembered and pondered
on. No meeting oftbe campaigu has been
characterized witli such enthusiasm, aud
nothing so much has occurred to enliven,
enthuse, and make more firm, the masses
of the Democracy... The honorable gen
tleman held -the meeting for over two
hours, in a convulsive and enthusiastic
indorsement of liis truths. His picture
of the real state of affaiis drove Republi
cans sneaklnglv from the hall. The as
semblage Was only regretful when he had
ceased. We only wish Mr. Kennon could
speak in every town in Ohio, and that we
could send his friends a greeting in the
Banner State of tiie South over his suc
cesses in the’North.
Si* acta Ishmaelite:. Mr. A- R. Buck
ner, after a long and wasting illness, qui
etly passed put of existence on last Fri
day morning. He was buried on Satur
day morning, by the Masonic order, of
which lie was a member. At the time of
his death he was clerk of the Superior
Court of Hancock county. He was a
faithful aud efficient officer.
Mb. J. R. Binion, Jr., of Island Creek,
died last week. He was the victim of
typhoid fever. He was a young man of
promise, and his early taking off is sad
indeed.
A Touching Incident.—Athens Ban
ner : Mr. Thomas W. Gean, the carrier
of the mail between Athens and Watkins-
vllle, Informs us that yesterday morning,
while in Watkinsville, he saw a colored
man go to Sheriff Overby, and asked to
he put in jail and chained. Being asked
his reason, lie said he had been bitten by
a mad dog, and for fear that he would
himself be attarked witli hydrophobia,
and bite some one else, he desired to be
Incarcerated and chained. The sheriff
complied, and the poor fellow is now in
durance, awaiting, in all probability, the
most horrible death that can befall a man.
This man is Thomas Akins, who was bit
ten by the dog which Mr. Thomas Jonas
killed—an account of which the Banner
published a few days since. The medical
faculty ought to take hold of this case.
The man ought not to be left to die witb-
oot an effort to save him. • If this case
could be successfully treated, it would
not only save a valuable human life, but
would be of great benefit to medical sci
ence. Why not look into the matter,
Messrs. Doctors?

The seed was planted in April, 1870, and
this, stalk with several others was left

Griffin News; - We do not remember
an occasion so sad, or a shock more ter
rible, than the sudden death yesterday of
our esteemed citizen, Col. R. H. Sims.
He was at his cotton office yesterday fore
noon, engaged in the usual,, routine of
business, apparently as hale and hearty as
ever, though he had complained somewhat
the evening previous. He went home, at
noon, and feeling au attack coining, l8y
down upon-a lounge. Ho was lying upon
his hack when Ids wife and daughter, per
ceiving that he was sufleriog, and think
ing a change of position might bring re
lief, assisted liinwJu-turning -upon his
side. The attack was then seen to be so
violent that they thought, he was dying,
and in their alarm, sent a messenger iu
hot liaste for Dr. Moore, who,: .upon re
ceiving word, hurried to .the house, but
fouud that death had preceded lum.
The Doctor prouounced the fatal attack
paralysis of the heart, with which the de
ceased had been some time threatened.
Columbus Times: At 10:30 yesterday
the alarm of fire was sounced from the
Eagle & Fhenix Manufacturing Company.
From what information we could obtain,
the lire originated in the picker-room,
where the boys were tramping cotton,
where it is supposed a match became ig
nited aud set fire to the open cotton. The
working forces were quickly at work, and
with the admirable system of waterworks
which the Eagle and Fhenix have inau
gurated, a disastrous lire is almost impos
sible. The employes worked heartily,
and soon had the fire under control.
There was no necessity for any assistance
from the city fire department, as the per
fect water arrangements..of the. Eagle &
Fhenix are sufficient to. extinguish any
fire that may occur. From ..an at
tache of the office we learn . that the
damage to open cotton which was being
picked over amounted to about $1,500 and
that only Hie belting in the machinery
room was damaged. The main buildings
were not at all injured aud tlie company
as well as the citizens of the county should
feel happy in knowing that the damage
was not more serious than it was. The
loss has been estimated by one of the at
taches of the office at two or three thou
sand dollais. The main buildings of the
factories are still at work ami the opera
tors hardly know of the fire which, wc hare
reported. . ...
Athens Walclanan: The exercises of
the fall term of the University begin Oc
tober Cth, and the prospects are good for
an increased attendance. Tlie people of
Georgia, iu every section of the State
should sustain this splendid institution.
Too many send to schools outside tlie State,
inferior to this, and .others do xtot send at
all. Wc hope to see at least 200 pupils
matriculate this season.

tee to confer with the boards of Albany
and Macon, and the authorities of the
Brunswick and Albany and . tlie Macon

arranging freights and business connec
tions with water transportation.
Augusta News: Augusta's progress as
a cotton market is shown by the great in
crease in cotton receipts each month.
September's receipts last year, amounted
to 20,208 hales, while the receipts for Sep
tember this year, ran up to 33,780 hales.
This is an item that sneaks for itself.
Sandeusville Herald: Washington
county is to he congratulated upon the
solvent character of its population. Only
347 voters are defaulter out of 3,000
polls in the county while the superinten
dent of the Bibh county public schools
reports 384 polls paid out of a voting
population of from 4,000 to 5,000. A

educational purposes.
Eastman Times: We learn that the
steam saw and grist mill belonging to
Mrs. Fannie Robinson of Laurens county,
near Dublin, was burnt to the ground on
Saturday night last, together with about
70 bushels of corn. The loss to Mrs. R.
is very heavy, amT she has our sympa
thies. It is supposed to have been the
work of an incendiary.
Perry Home Journal: We have been
told that Mr. F. M. Houser, who is farm
ing about three miles east of Ferry, has
this year already gathered twenty hales of
cotton, besides a vely fair com crop from
a two mule farm. We did not leam the
number of acres in cultivation, but we
did leam that Mr. Houser expects to gath
er five or six more bales of cotton. We
call this very good farming.
Savannah Neies: Early Tuesday
morning, between two and three o'clock,
as John W. Thomas, a drummer fora
Mobile clothing bouse, was passing the
corner of Montgomery and Bay streets, he
encountered two negroes, who suddenly
sprang upon him, knocking him to tlie
ground. They then gave him several
licks over tlie head, rendering him semi-
unconscions, when they proceeded to rifle
liis pockets, obtaining several articles and
fourteen dollars In* money. The high
waymen then fled and succeeded in ma-
ing their escape. Mr. Thomas, we un
derstand, has not entirely recovered from
the effects of the attack, but it is said will
remain here to have the parties who are
known, arrested and prosecuted. ,
Atlanta Post: Yesterday a horrible
accident occurred near John Lowe’s plan
tation, a few miles from Atlanta, by which
a colored man lost bis life. The man was
engaged, in a gin house on the outside of
which an engine was working to which
was attached a fly-wheel with a belt ran-
iiing’tlirougha hole hi the building. While
the negto was stauding near the belting,
his clothes were caught by the belting and
he was drawn down through the hole.
Those who were standing near aL hand,
upon rushing into tile building, saw the
man lying on the floor literally tom to
pieces. Every bone in his body appeared
to ha broken, and dtffflMh badly lacera
ted. The negro lived only a few mo
ments.
Savannah News: Yesterday afternoon
about half-past five o'clock, Policeman
Leach discovered a wliiteman lying at the

a suffering condition. He had the unfor
tunate man transferred to the Savannah

tion. It was asceiUised that his name
was John F. Rivers, aud that he is from
Chicago.
Perry Home Journal: A correspond
ent from Byron writes: Hardly ever lie-
fore has there been so much cotton open
in the fields at one time, and such a de
mand for hands, at 50 to 150 cents per 100
pounds. Several farmers have sent their
wagons ana teams Jo Macon for hands,
ami brought them out by loads, and the
demand is not supplied. A, heavy crop
wi*l certainly be gathered. Money has
begun to circulate, and the Byron mer
chants are smiling over their prospects.
Savannah News : A very serious and
probably fatal accident occurred in a

G. Mills. The deceased was a member
of the Jate. firm of T. R. J. G. Mills,
and was for many years a sea captain, be

Ships,Gcqrglaand Consul. He was born
in St. Mary’s Georgia, but removed to Sa

Cuthbert Appeal: Capt.O. A.Horne

putting up a new lino of telegraph wire

Sparta Times and Planter: We regret
to announce the death of Mrs. Josiah
Carr, which occurred last. Sunday morn
ing. She was the daughter of Mr. Henry
Collins and a most estimable lady.
With sorrow we chronicle the death of
Mrs. A. B: Buckner. After a lingering
illness ot several months his life went out
quietly, peacefully. Without a struggle
his spirit took its flight into eternity.
What a fitting death—as he lived so he
died. Mr.. Buckner was a gentleman of
sterling qualities, and his death leaves a
void in the community that will he hard
to fill. For a number of years he was
cleric of the Superior Court, and he dis
charged his dutieswith efficiency. He was
buried with Masonic, honors.
Cochran Enterprise: Messrs. Peacock

ably twenty. They used compost at a
cost of $2.00 per acre. .Thorough prepara

There is no gassing in this estimate.
Brunswick Advertiser: From a gentle
man just returned from the Mineban-Cal-
uan camp, on the new railroad from Way-
cross to Jacksonville, we learn that an
Irishman, a stranger, had gone down there
and tried to get work. Having failed, he
had indulged too freely in liquor, and was
lying by the road, drunk, when a Swede,
named Charley ^atterson, also in liquor,
came along, and, without provocation, as
far as we can learn, made an assault upon
the drunken Irishman, and actually kick
ed him to death, and then left for other
parts. The sheriff was notified, and was
iu pursuit at last accounts. This same
chap (the Swede) sought to get into a dif
ficulty with our informant just a short
while before the killingoccurred. •
Amkricus Reporter: A few nights ago
some one entered the roomrof Lackington
Soellings, the proprietor of the peanut
stand on Forsytli street, by placing a lad
der against the side of the house and rais

and not finding tlie money he was evi
dently looking for, he made liis escape, as
he came, through the window, and suc
ceeded in getting off without being seen.
It was a bold act, and a great pity he made
his escape. •
Augusta Chronicle: Yesterday morn

Savannah Neies: During the month
of September the ai rivals of for
eign steamships at this port have
numbered twenty-six, including some of
the largest first-class English steamships

for the same period are tbe largest in the
history of the port.
Oglethorpe Echo', A prominent
farmer informs us that he notices stalks of
codon growing among Bermuda grass that
are loaded with bolls, while others near at
hand, on soil free from this pest, are slirn-
iy fruited. He argues that this grass re
tains moisture through dry weather and is
an advantage instead of drawback to the
plant. It fa a singular fact that during
a dry summer cotton tiiat lias been sadly
neglected by both the hoe and plow
yields much better than those crops prop
erly tended—thus substantiating the fact
that grass does produce moisture. Far
mers call these “tlie lazy man's years.”
Grain crops must be kept clean to pro
duce.
Columbus Enquirer: Yesterday morn
ing Mr. A. G. McCrary was coming to
the city with three bales of cotton on his
wagon. His little son was riding on top
of the cotton. When in a few miles of
tlie city he came to a wagon which had
broken down, and *ftVas necessary for
him to drive to ono.side. In doing so one
of the wheels of liis wagon ran into a
hole, winch caused it to tarn over, one of
the bales falling on his little son. He
lilted the bale and picked tbe boy up,
'expecting to find him crushed to death,
but as by a miracle he was unbanned.
Fort Gaines Tribune: Mr. J. A.
Haskins happened to a very painful and
serious accident last Wednesday. For
soars time he has been nmning the sta
tionary engine that drives the cotton gin

Alabama, and while oiling some part of
the machinery his right arm became in
some way entangled, aud was broken be
tween the wrist and elbow, the upper
portion of his arm, near the shoulder,
fearfully lacerated, the skin, flesh aud
muscles being literally tom asunder, mak
ing a- most frightful wound. Ho was

o'clock in a wagon, and Dra. Johnston, 1
Mandeville and Hatchett dressed bis
wounds, and did all they could to relieve
liis suffering.
Special to Augusta Chronicle and
Constitutionalist: Waynesboro, Ga., Sep
tember 30.—The meeting here to-day was
enthusiastic, orderly and respectable. Mr.
Walsh made a speech of au hour and a
half, which was well received. Governor
Colquitt followed In a two hours’ speech,
which elicited outbursts of applause aud
rendered his vindication complete. Burke
will give him one thousand majority. The
colored voters are nearly unanimous for
our present Governor. Governor Colquitt

on Saturday.
Bainbridge Democrat: We are

Savannah Neios: Yesterday morn
ing some ninety bauds, mostly from Vir-
§ iuia, arrived here by the Charleston aud
avannah railway, en route to work on
the Way cross railway, uow being con
structed, and left'on the train by the Sa
vannah, Florida and Western railway tor
their destination. The party suffered a
detention oi some hours in Charleston in
consequence of a telegram from the mayor
of Norfolk to the chief of police in that
city requesting that two young whit* men,
George Roberts aud Samuel C. Talbert, from tlie_cars the Jarge male elephant,
who had escaped from Norfolk witli the Chieftain, became maddened at, it is sup-
party, be arrested. Roberts was found,! posed, the large and noisy crowd of boys
but, after a close investigation, it was dis- i and men gathered around the car con-
covered that Talbert was not in the party, mining the elephants. When Mr. John
some forty of whom had been taken to the King, the keeper, who has been in charge
station house for the purpose of being ex- of him for the past ten years, approached
amrned. The men were released, and to take the elephants out of the car,
Roberts held to await requisition. Tlie Chieftain grew furious. Mr. King endeav-
charge against him was not specified. oriug to subdue him, the elephant butted
not be on hand at the appointed day, but
it is tr$e)aliytliat thp-presi’ni indications;
point to a crowd from whieh they will
scarcely be missed.
“ It is certain that in addition to the com
panies which will, visit Atlanta from the
North, there will be present also twenty-
five or thirty from the surrounding States,
and a vast crowd hot in uniform. It
strikes us that Captain Burke has turned
on a stream which he is unable to check,
and which Atlanta itself is now forced to
meet.
The city is not now in a condition to
receive and entertain at her hotels a crowd
much larger than that brought on by the
Legislature, and there is hut one thing
left them to do. They must take into
their private houses these guests, and en
tertain them as the friends ol' Atlanta;
welcome to places JiyJier firesides. It is
this or disgrace,,andare. glad to see
that her citizens have awakened to a full
knowledge of the fact. -> •
But the affair belongs nof to Atlanta
alone. When these companies return to
their homes, and their story is told by
tongue or by the press to the country,it will
be about the welcome and the treatment
received, not at the bauds of the Gate
City Guard, nor at the bauds of Atlanta,
but at the hands of Georgia and Gcor-
glaris.
* Now, the State stands precisely in the
same relation to Atlanta, as Atlanta does
to the Gate City Guard. We were.not
expecting company, but one of the boys
has used our note paper with the crest on
it, and tbe recipients looking on that crest
have said, “Well, those Georgians down
there are hospitable fellows and will set
’em up. We will go.” They are right, too;
we will set them up. We must help At
lanta entertain and receive these guests,
who come to Georgia expecting a wel
come.
Nowjiow shall we do it. Easy enough.
Let every city of the State send a repre
sentative company to Atlanta, to stand
with her people in the depot and say to
strangers: “We are not members of the
Gate City Guard, nor arc we Atlanteseon
this occasion, WaaVe Georgians every
one, and glad to see you.” The presence
of five or six hundred native Georgians te
open bottles and respond to toasts, would
lift a terrible load off the shoulders of At
lanta.
The Volunteers will take action to
night regarding the trip, and will, we
think, decide unanimously to go. They
can leave this city Saturday night anil
Atlanta Monday night, thus losing only
one business day.
THE LAST OF HIS COMPANY.
Interviewing; lire Only Original Ma
con "Volunteer Now Living. ,
Yesterday afternoon a Telegraph
reporter saw hurrying down the street, a
bale and hearty old gentleman, resting
his weight only lightly upon his stick as
he strode along, aud stepping as sprightly,
barring a faint limp, as a youth of twenty.
The square, determined face, set above
the old-fashioned stock, Is familiar to
many of our citizens, as that of Col. R.
L. Mott, of Columbus. Catching up with
him, the reporter remaiked;
“Colonel, you are now probably the
only living member of the body of men,
who, on the 23rd of April, 1825, organiz
ed themselves into a military company,
under the name of tbe “Macon Volun

An Unfortunate Tour.
As ono of our exchanges remarks, Rob
inson’s tour has been one of misfortune.
Mr. James Robinson, son of the proprie
tor, lias been compelled to leave the com
pany on account of his ill health, and is
now on his way to Cincinnati. Mr. Rob
inson is suffering with Bright’s disease,
and it is stated that lie would not live
long enough to reach his home alive. He
was accompanied by his father, brother
Jack and a sister, and was supplied with
a Pullman sleeper from Atlanta to Cin
cinnati. He left tlie^ circus at Charlotte,
N. C. Mr. Rohiiisoif is about thirty years
of age and has made a world-wide reputa
tion as a rider. [He died before reaching
home.]
On tlie arrival of the circus at Char
lotte, N. C., a fatal aceideut occurred, one
of the keepers being killed by an ele
phant. As the animals were being taken
Messrs. Butler, Lester and Norwood and
Reform spoke eight hours here yesterday.
Early yesterday morning' 1 requested a
.Norwood man tq take .particular notice,
anflSf the tpoechfcst lhadt aby changes
from Colquitt to Norwood, or even
from the fence to Norwood, to let me
kuow.liow many ami who they. were. He
agreed to it, and late in the afternoon, af
ter the speaking, he told me he would
make Ids ripdrt this morning. At ten
this morning lie came in and said he
was ready, and I took my pen and paper
to make a list, and asked him to proceed.
“Bill Patterson, colored,” said lie. I
wrote it down, and said, “well.” “That’s
all,” said lie, looking as if he had forsak
en all his friends of their own accord.
And he was right. The time, trouble,
and expense of these three gentlemen, the
enthusiastic reception, anil grand flourish;
the loss Of a whole day from their fields
and business, of from three to four hun
dred persons; eight hours speaking from
Mr. Norwood bimself and his right and
left bowers,, who,
"With words of learned length and thun
dering sound, ’
Amazed tlie gazing farmers ranged
around,”
without a particle of effect, except chang
ing the mind of one poor negro. The
question uow is “Who struck Billy Fsi
te rson ;” Butler, Lester, or Norwood aud
reform? Echo answers, “Who.”
P. S. Tlie reason there was so large a
crowd here is that Mr. Norwood’s friends
pui out the report all over the country
that Gen. Gordon would be here to reply
to Mr. Norwood; ami consequently half
the audience were Colquitt men. But
they are as firm as rocks. Terrell county
will give Gov. Colauitt a liauilsome ma

TWIGGS COUNTY WAGON TRAIN.
The Kiisli on Coleman A Newsom—A
Supper at Night.
Yesterday at noon Twiggs county’s
wagon train, hearing one hundred and
twenty-six hales of cotton, and consisting
of forty-eight separate teams, arrived in the
city. It was preceded by a brass band, and
attracted attention everywhere it went
during its parade. The front wagon bore
a banner, upon whieh was inscribed:
“We, the citizens of Twiggs county,
carry our cotton to our frieuds, Coleman
& Newsom and A. B. Jones.”
Nearly three hundred people accompa
nied the train, and at night they were in
vited to and partook of a bountiful sap
per spread for them by the enterprising
firm of. Coleman & Newsom. The firm
received 210, bales by wagon during tbe
day.
As a straw showing the politics of
Twiggs couuty, it may he well to state
that all of the number present, except
twenty, were for Colquitt for Governor.
MR. JASPER F. GREER.
He Moves to Florida.
Night before last quite a large party of
ladies and gentlemen assembled at the de
pot to bid farewell to Mr. Jasper F. Greer
and family, who have gone to Florida, and
will henceforth make tlieir home
in that sunny clime. Mr. Greer’s
health for the last year
so lias been such 03 to prevent his doing
business. Inflammatory rheumatism ha?
afflicted ldm, aud would yield to no reme
dies in the city. During a trip to Flor.da
he found that the waters of Green Cove
Springs gave him immediate relief, and so
pleased was ho with the country that he
made arrangements to go there aud live.
Mr. Greer will henceforth be found at
the Riverside House at Green Cove
Springs, a hotel he has now opened and
will keep open all the year round. These
springs are already famous, and the water
has a wide-spread reputation as a cure for
rheumatism, neuralgia, nervous prostra
tion and kidney diseases. The baths are
beautifully arranged, and the hotel stands
upon the margin of the St. John’s river,
only two hours’ ride from Jacksonville.
Col. Greer has been for many years an
lioDorcd citizen of Macon, well known in
all circles. We cheerfully recommend
him as a gentleman worthy of all confi
dence, and trust that not only health but
wealth may be found in the limpid waters
by whose side he has cast his lot.
Brunswick Advertiser: The incom
ing crop of oranges and olives on St. Si
mon’s island will be very poor this fall.
Out of two hundred and fifty orange trees
in Col. Shadmau’s grove, there’arc not a
dozen in full bearing. The ratio in the
olive orchard is probably abont the same.
Colonel S. thinks, however, that the next
year will he very favorable to tlie growth
of oranges, provided the seasons for the
uext sixty days are suitable. He has
learned tiiat the hearing wood of one sea
son is the growth of the year before, and
tiiat this year’s growth is simply splendid.
Col. S. attributes the almost eutirc failure
of this year’s crop of oranges to the re
sult of a few days of very cold weather
the coast and islands experienced last
fall, the iast year’s wood being very seri
ously injured during this unfavorable
spell of weather.

ing that public speaking is the order of
the evening. . During the iast. mniiUi, the
Man on the Monument has lived in a halo
of burniifg gunpowder.
As usual, last night.when the signal was
given, a stream of people wended their
way to the Court House, and filing in soon
filled up the Superior Court room. The
announcement, however, bad gone forth
days before that Colonels Nesbit and
Blount, the former a' presidential elector
and the latter our congressional candidate,
would speak upon the issues of the day as
presented to the people of the United
States, and considering the excitement
nearer home, the large crowd present was
a great compliment to both gentlemen.
Colonel Nesbit was first introduced, and
spoke for a quarter of an hoar. His speech
was in part a reply to the late effort of
Roscoe Conkling. He urged upon the
people the sacredness of the cbnstitu-
tion, and warned the youth of the country
against becoming so accustomed to
hearing of the frauds of political life as to
look upon them with less loathing than
they deserved.
There are now two parties only in the
land—iu the words of Senator Hill, “the
party of peace and the party of strife.” A
Republican Senator (Conkling) had re
cently openly taken the opposite ground,
asserting that there could be no peace or
prosperity for the country, except in the
supremacy of tho Republican party; that
should tlie Democrats and the South come
iuto power, peace and prosperity would
be dead. The South's history was the
best answer to that charge. She has been
the best friend of the constitution since its
adoption, and the most conservative ele
ment in the government. All conseiva-
tive measures that have been adopted,
have originated in.the South. The very
liberty of the country was born
h6re. While Massachusetts was quar
reling with the mother country,
Patrick Henry was denouncing. While
the North hesitated, the South declared
the people free. While the leading men
of the North stood back, lacking nerve to
speak, Richard Henry Lee stepped forward
and declared the sentiments of the people,
It was a Southern man who wrote the
Declaration of Independence. While New
York was surrounded and the forces of
the Union were paralyzed, here in the
Carolines, the Georgia and Carolina mil
itia were heating back the invaders. All
down the history of the South was it
proved to he true. The wars that followed
were conducted by Southern men under
Southern leaders, and ended on Southern
soil. Her annies conquered at New Or
leans, stormed Buena Yista and first. en
tered the halls of the Montezumas; and it
was a Southern man—Decatur—who swept
the Mediterranean Sea of the Algerian
brigantines, and accomplished that which
Europe bad attempted in vain for three
hundred years. AU. that magnificent
stretch of country gained from Mexico,
and iaigcr than the thirteen original States
was won by Southern arms. Iu Congress
her attitude had been the seme.
Commodore Mauiy,that grand old man,
was a Southerner. His glory could not
be wrested from )iim. It was.he who
seized’tbe winds, and sent the fleets to
wards every quauer; he who mapped out
the sea until a school boy could under
stand its workings, and ho who surveyed
its floor, and told the world whqre the ca
ble must be laid.
And yet Mr. Conkling says that strife
will follow, and prosperity be dead, if the
South gains place; he, and the Republican
orators, have denounced us for fifteen
years. The time is coming, let us hope,
when all this shall end, and peace shall
prevail. God forbid that the patience we
have exercised, and the patriotism that
has moved us, shall have been in vain.
The duties of the hour are eternal vigi
lance and resistance. The Democratic
party is the only home of an honest man.
Surveying the political field, the speaker
referred to the leaders now offered to tlie
people. Arthur, he said, had been spewed
from the mouth of the Republican party,
and Garfield, while a skilled politician
and tactician, lacked truth and integrity.
He reviewed some or the principal evils of
the latter’s career, including his-record as
a member of the Louisiana visiting board
and his subsequent acts in ^Congress.
English was a leader, pure, honest, true,
faithful and conservative. Upon the men
tion of Haucock’s name there was loud
and enthusiastic applause. The eu
logy over that distinguished gentleman
was veiy beautiful and eloquent.
Colonel Nesbit referred briefly and
touchingly to the disruption in Georgia,
saying that however the people may be
divided now, the fight in November would
"find them side by side.
Col. J. II. Blount then took the stand,
aud gave a brief history of tho issues now
before tho people of tlie United States,
among which were the tariff, the evils of
which be illustrated by showing the taxes
paid upon various articles familiar to the
trade, and by furnishing figures showing
the sections favored and oppressed. Ho
described tlie great land frauds, for which
tho Republican party is responsible—
frauds by which 200,000,000 acres of tynd
were donated to corporations, an amount
thirteen times as large as the total acreage
of Georgia. Then followed a close de
scription of the Credit Mobiljer fraud aud
Garfield’s connection with it, and the
proofs by which his crime was laid hare.
Colonel Blount paid a glowing tribute
to General Hancock, describing him as
tlie Incarnation of Saxon liberty which
had descended to us through tlie ages.
O wing to the lateness of the hour, he did
not deliver his full address.

Whereas, Alfred H. Colquitt, the pres
ent Governor of the State of Georgia, has
executed his duty like a good , Chrisjjkn,
and the laws of his country with approved
ability, and in his administration saved the
State of Georgia to a great extent from

Resolved, That we will pay, on or
before Wednesday, all taxes required by
us in the statutes or laws, and run with
haste to the polls with tickets in one baud
and tax receipts in the other, for the pur
pose of re-electing Governor Colquitt.
The Floyd Rifles.
The time for action has arrived in the
history of this company, in order to make
their approaching fair a success. The
people of Macou are interested in the
welfare of this gallant company, and tlieir
interests are identified with the success of
the company. Therefore we hope that
everybody will be ready to contribute lib
erally to the committee, who will call up
on them during the next week. It is the
first time that this company has ever
asked contributions ofthis kind during its
long and honorable existence. They need
it now, aud come before the public confi
dently expecting to share the generous
liberality of our citizens. Let them noi
be disappointed. Plans of operation have
been devised, and the whole city will be
canvassed thoroughly, so that everybody
can help iu this, their time of need.
“He who helps soonest helps best.”
The Morns Multicaullft.
Some thirty to forty years ago there was
much enthusiasm iu Georgia over the
raising of the Morns Multicavlis for the
feeding of the silkworm. This peculiar
species of lire mulberry- tree was culti
vated in nearly every garden spot about
Macon, aud many silkworms were nur
tured in their luxuriant foliage. So nu
merous were the cocoons that they were
used as playthings by the children. The
rich, glossy threads of the cocoons were
never utilized to any extent; probably
because our people were too much en
grossed in the vast acres of the • cotton
plant.
We are glad to notice that the raising
ol the silkworm is, after the lapse of so
many years, again revived, and that the
manufacture of silk cloth is a success.
Through Captain Edwards, of Dodge
couuty, we are presented with a handsome
handkerchief of silk cut from a piece of
twenty yards length, made by Mrs.
Wright, of the same couuty; and further
to her credit, she raised the trees, attended
the worms, and wove the silk into the
cloth.
Wliat is it that Georgia soil, with proper
industry, cannot produce ?

London, October 2.—A dispatch from
Rome says: Representatives of the sur
vivors of the country’s battles started for
Caprera aboard the tug boat iu which
General Garibaldi was to embark for
Genoa. Garibaldi, iu spite of the urgent
advice ot his best friends, is determined to
carry out his iutention, and will probably
leave Caprera to-morrow and arrive at
Genoa on Sunday. The situation is rife
with the most serious possibilities. There
is no doubt but that General Garibaldi
will be received on landing by the extreme
radicals of Genoa in all their strength;
aud should he, as some think likely, go at
their head to the prefecture or to the
prison aud demand the release of Mayor
Cariseio, we shall probably have such au
affair as that of Aspramonte over again;
for Premie-; Cairoli, bitter as it may be to
him to act rigorously against his old leader,
will faith!oily do his duty, and cause the
laws to l>o 1 eepocted.

rian Premier, replying to the question put

ment would use its influence against the
employment of force iu connection with
the cession of Dulcigno, said the delay
granted Turkey for the execution of the
treaty of Berlin, evidently proves that no
power manifests any intention of making
war against Turkey. The foreign policy of
Austria-Hungary aims at assuring Eu

Cleveland, Ohio, October 2.—At the-
. City Armory last night, Secretary Scbtsrr

paid Garfield a glowing tribute asastates-
man and a gentleman. He declared that
with a change in the general government
no one could tell what would follow-
From November until. April all would be

against the national banking system, and
great financial embarrassment would be
threatened thereby’.
