FRIDAY OCTOBER 8, 1880.
Tub Springfield (Mass.) Republican,
speaking of Hancock’s last letter, says:
“On the whole, the man grows Uie more
the Republicans stir him.” The Spring-
field Republican has a level bead.
Col. J. H. Estill, of the Savanriah
Retcs, started life as a circus man. So
Says John Lowlow, the clown.—Augusta
News. *
This is another campaign slander. We
have known the Colonel a long while,
and our recollection hi that be started life
as a little boy—a wee, little fellow. *
New Paper.—Col. Alexander, late of
the Griffin News, will start a paper in
Barnetvilie. The first number will be
issued on the ICtb of this month. It is to
be called the Pike County News.
Col. Alexander is a pleasant and forci
ble writer, an experienced newipaper
man, and will no doubt make a success of
bis new enterprise.
* Strange Admonition.—Dining the
session of tlio Pan-Presbyterian Alliance
in Philadelphia, they occupied the Horti
cultural Hall, and as the grave and rev
ereml members ascended the stairway,
they were dally greeted with a playcard,
in lai-ge letters: “Beware ol pickpock
ets.”
Senator Bixby has offered to bet a lead
ing Republican $329 that Hancock would
carry Ohio, $329 that he would carry Con
necticut, $329 that New Jersey would go
for him, $329 that Indiana would follow
her example, $329 that New York would
go Democratic, and $329 that no Republi
can would take all the bets.
Our next issue being on Tuesday
morning, only twenty-four hours before
the polls open, we feel much like bidding
adieu to tbis canvass to-day, with the hope
that another of the sort will never happen
in Georgia. Norwood men and Colquitt
men, close up the record as decently,
orderly and pleasantly as possible.
It is now announced, says the Times,
circumstantially that the Republicans
have just sent $950,000 to Indiana. If
they strike off about one cipher, they will
have the figures about right. If the Re
publicans were to send $950,000 to In
diana, the Democrats would get more
money out of it than they would know
what to do with.
The dangers of the sea are sadly
grouped together in the record of a British
parliamentary “Blue Book” just issued.
From the 1st Jannary, 1873, to May, 1880,
1,95C British mercantile steamships and
sailing vessels were reported as foundered
or missing, their total tonnage being 729,-
194. The number of lives lost was 10,-
827.
A Spirited Contest.—The tilt be
tween the Atlanta Phonograph and the
Athens Blade in picture making con
tinues with unabated zeal. We rather
think that Pledger has got the best of
Christopher, os the latter has had to call
on his Macon ally for help. But as the
canvass Is now ended, we suppose both
papers will now dismiss their artists and
turn their attention to legitimate Journal-
ism.
Hard-Up.—The Atlanta Post-Appeal
has been engaged during several weeks
past in publishing ancient history.
Whether it is really a case of necessity or
whether that astute journal delights in
things grim and stale is a question that
the readers have not been able to deter
mine. The editor has taken one of Mr.
Hill’s old letters, and cut It up m para
graphs and Is publishing them as editorial.
Doubtless, these paragraphs are superior
to anything the editor could indite him
self, hut then he might Induce Mr. Hill to
write on’subjects more modem in theirna-
lure, and more interesting to his readers.
Astonished.—The manner in which
, the South lias received General Hancock’s
j letter upon the payment of Southern war
claims, completely dumbfounds the Radi-
| cals of the North. Not a note of com-
I plaint has been heard, but on the contrary
lit has been universally Indorsed and ap
proved by the people of that section. The
truth Is, nearly every one of the claims
[jwere made by Southern Unionists, and
[the ex-Confederates have but little sym-
: pathy for tho parties and no interest in
L the amounts they are seeking to procure
r from the treasury. ItffleM, we suspect
that the majority of them are without any
rightful foundation whatever.
H Jewkli. Appealing for Aid.—A spe
cial dispatch to the Philadelphia Times,
lated New York, September 29, says:
(The Union League Club listened this
vening to a pathetic appeal from Chair-
nan Jewell for money to carry on the
lepublican campaign. The dangers to
te party and the nation, if it was not
irtbcomlng, were graphically described,
swell as much as said that money alone
>u)d save them from defeat. The League
>pointed a committee of fifty, among
horn arc some of New York’s most solid
inkers and merchants, who are to try to
Ise a million or two. Subscription pa
rs have been in circulation in Wall
tset for some time, and Jay Gould is
Hi ited with giving a handsome check
} use in Indiana.”
They must be having a livelv time in
liana, judging from the following ex-
ct from a special to the Louisville Cou-
r-Journal: “Nothing like the present
Jtical excitement was ever known in
;iana. The Slate is actually turned
I, as Godlove Orth would say, a politi-
lime-kllu. In most portions of the
*e business is nearly entirely sus
sed, and business men have turned
j- attention solely to politics. In many

Last Week’s Cotton Figures.
Situation of the Crop—Rainfall
in September.
The New York Chronicle gives the re
ceipts at all the ports for the week ending
last Friday night, at 172,221 bales, against
162,330 for the same week • of last year.
Total since 1st September, 493,664 hales,
against 410,939 last year, showing a gain
of 82,725 bales*
The Chronicle’s table of interior port
business shows that the receipt* for the
seven days ending last Friday night were
77,07" bales, against 73,647 for the same
week of last year. The shipments were
59,351 against 64,214 last year. Tho
stocks footed up "8,735 against 52,207 at
the same date last year. ]■’ .
: The Chronicle’s. visible supply table
showed on last Friday 1,873,951'hales of
cotton In sight, against 1,022,821 the year
before—1,127,161 in 1878, and 1,293,496
in 1877 at same date. These figuresshow
an Increase in the visible supply of 851,-
180 bales over the supply in 1879, and of
246,790 bales over the supply in 1878, and
of80,445 bales on the supply in 1877.
Cotton was quoted on last Friday in
Liverpool at 013-10 for middling upland.
In 1879, at same date, the quotation was
61—in 1878 0 7-16, and in 1677 0|.
The Chronicle’s telegrams of Friday
from the cotton growing region report the
weather fairly favorable during the week
ending with that day, which is scarcely
borne out by details. In Texas, at
Galveston, there were light showers on
three days early in the week, amounting
toO.CS of fall. Too wet to do much pick
ing. Accounts from the interior were
conflicting. Without doubt much dam
age has been done, but with fair weather
in future, the crop still promises well.
The rainfall in September was 10.18,
more than one-third as much as fell the
whole of last year. At Indianoia It
rained hard on four days of the week, with
afallof2.S0. Too wetto pick, except in
high lands, and great complaint of rot.
Roads almost impassable, and not a leaf
left on cotton. The rainfall in Septem
ber was 8.08. At Corsicana, rained
hard on two days early in the week.
Great damage has been done, hut still as
much cotton will be made as can be pick
ed. Rainfall in September 7.69. At
Dallas, rained tremendously three dayc,
and rainfall amounting to 4.10. Streams
overflowed—picking suspended on all bot
tom and fiat lands. Much complaint of
rot. Rainfall In September 5.70. At
Brenham, rained hard on three days, with
a fail of two inches. Much damage done.
Picking resumed on uplands, but not on
bottom. Rainfall in September 5.75. At
Waco, rained hard on three days to
amount of 1.75. Picking begun again.
Much damage has been done.
In Louisiana, at New Orleans, rained
hard on four days. Rainfall of the week
2.05. Rainfall of September 7.48. At
Shreveport weather cool and clear and
more favorable for picking during the last
four days of the week; but there was 3.12
of rain daring the week. In Mississippi, at
Vicksburg, the latter part of the week was
clear and pleasant. At Columbus, rain
on three days of the week with an unusu
ally severe storm, which destroyed much
cotton. The rainfall of the week was
2.10, and of the month of September 9.02.
“The crop of this section,” says the report,
“Will be very short.” In Aikansos, at
Little Rock, cloudy and rainy »11 the
week except the latter part. Actual rain
fall only 0.60. Ra’nfall in September 5.09.
At Memphis, rainfall on four days, reach
ing 0.82. Crop reports from that section
indicate 25 per cent, depreciation. At
Nashville, rain on four days early in
week. A light frost, but not a killing
frost.
In Alabama, at Mobile, showery on four
days. Crop accounts less favorable. Rain
fall of the week, 1.34—of the month of
September, 7.04. Montgomery—rain on
fonr days, reaching 0.81; rainfall in Sep
tember, 3.15. In Selma, showery on two
days early in the week. Picking going on
finely.
In Georgia, at Columbus, slight rains on
two days with a fall of 0.80. ^Rainfall In
September, 2.99. In Macon, rain on two
days; rain in September, 1.76. In Augus
ta, no rain fell in the week; rain in Sep
tember, 1.04.
A Southern Republican Address.
Eleven “prominent Southern Republi
cans” have held a conference in Washing
ton, and unite in the publication of an ad
dress to the people of the United States,
in which, among a good deal else to the
same purport, they say.
We are satisfied from personal knowl
edge derived from observation and from
participation in the reconstruction policy,
that a change in the party character of
the national administration is now the
surest and best means of placing recon
struction upon a safe and peaceful basis,
and of at once patting the country in mu
tual confidence and kindly relationship.
And, *8 this shonld be the first and lead
ing purpose of the American people in
the pending presidential election, we be
lieve it ought to overrule all party attach
ments and considerations.
To elect a Republican President at this
time by a sectional vote would be a pub
lic calamity of the gravest character. It
would unquestionably set back the grow
ing sentiment of nationality and uuity
which a just and enlightened policy in
the management of reconstruction would
long since have permanently secured.
While wishing to avoid as far as possible
rny matter appealing to feeling rather
than sober reason, we cannot well omit al
luding to the fact that the Republican
party has made its present campaign a di
rect attack upon the South by seeking to
revive against it the distrusts and hostile
feelings engendered by the war. We can
not he unmindful that this is being done
for the purpose of securing a pai;y tri
umph which is to install such distrust and
hostility In complete control of the na
tional administration. It Is natural and
reasonable that the Southern people, so
threatened, shonld unite in resisting, by
their votes tlie consummation of such a
purpose; and that they should appeal to
thoughtiul and Just men in the North for
protection and support.
The World says the signers to this ad
dress are all men of note. Mr. John
Po«l was a United States Senator from
North Carolina, from 1867 to 1873. Mr.
Joseph S. Fowler was United States Sen
ator from Tennessee from 1805 to 1871.
Mr. Daniel Coleman, of North Carolina,
was Assistant Postmaster General under
the administration of Mr. Van Buren.
Mr. James U. Embry, of Kentucky, was
at one time on the bench, and afterwards
became the law partner of Reverdy John
son and ex-Senalor Doolittle, forming
the law firm of Johnson, Doolittle * Em

the Fifth Judicial Circuit in Virginia and
President of the District Court of Ap
peals from 1869 to 1873, and held two im
portant consulates under General Grant’s
administration. Mr. George Williamson,

publicans, tot present at the preparation
of the address, but to whom copies were
sent by mail, have written letters author
izing it to be stated that they fully concur
it. Among these are William B. Rodman,
for ten years a jadge of the Supreme
Court of North Carolina; Geo. W. Brooks,
the United States District Judge in the
eastern district of North Carolina, and C.

of the Senate. David P. Lewjs, Governor
of Alabama: from 1872 to 1874, and at that

State, has written a letter to Mr. John

the address and giving his own able ana
decided views npon public affairs.
An HsnMt Talk.
As moving day is over, and those who
felt inclined to wander away from borne
for the summer have returned from their
roamings, and everythinghas settled down
for the winter, it will not be out of place
to indulge in an honest, plain talk with
our readers. • ;
We start out with the proposition that
this is a good season of the year to organ*
ize the whole domestic machinery on a
new and sounder basis. However, this
will require the co-operation of the whole
household. But the recognized head of
the family can, by judicious management,
secure this end. In order to do this, the
head must explain to every member their
Individual responsibilities in the premises,
and let every one know that they are ex
pected to do their duty. Every one works
better when they fee! a measure of re
sponsibility resting upon them.
The first essential to comfort Is pure
air. Sanitary science is about as little
understood by the average American citi
zens, as the science of electric light was
understood by our grandfathers. In tins
climate, this season of the year, death
reaps his greatest harvests in tcveis. Where
typhoid fever exists, and in middle Geor
gia it is becoming fearfully frequent, the
causo is found only In animal poison
—and not unfrequenlly conveyed through
impure drinking water. Malarial fevers
come from low swampy grounds—the con
stituent* being, decayed vegeta
tion, dampness and hot run—
wherever these three co-exist
miasma abounds. Therefore, to have a
pure atmosphere, the drains must be
looked after, and all refuse matter re
moved. The wells must be cleaned, and
a good coat of whitewash given to the ncg-
lectedpremises. It has not been ten
days ago, since inquiring after the health
of a gentleman’s family, he replied that
they all had been sick with typhoid iever.
When pressed for the cause he said it was
because be had neglected the well. Good
water is essential as good air. Healthy
minds can only subsist In healthy bodies,
and healthy bodies can only be main
tained with pure air and good water.
In-doors the want Is just as imperative.
The ventilation must be looked after, a
subject more universally neglected than
almost any other. Many people perish in
our country from noxious gasses generated
in a badly ventilated room. All this
shonld be remedied, and could be, if we
would pay gome regard to tlie laws of
health.
Another important matter presents
itself, and one that the good housewives
ought to look well to; and that is the
necessity of well cooked food. The devel
opment of both the physical and medal
depends In no small degree upon the food
we eat. Not so much as to the variety,
hut the mauner in which it is prepared.
The French, m many things, show us how
the cooking can be done—made nutritions
and savory, and at the same time very
cheap. The great wonder Is, that there
are not one hundred dyspeptics where
there is now one, in consequence of the
misarable cooking we are forced to
endare.
Proper exercise is essential to proper
development of the children. The ques
tion has often been asked, “ Why cannot
men be strong and wise?” They ought to
be, and can be if properly trained. It is
on old theory, hut an exploded one, that
all mental culture is at the expense of the
physical. Happiness can never be found in
any maturity of scholarship when the acqul
sk.ion has ruined the health. That health
is often sacrificed at the shrino of intellec
tual ambition, we are ready to admit, but
must contend that there is no real neces
sity. What we need in this country is the
inter-blending of physical with mental
culture; and this is what every parent
ought to seek in order to contribute to the
happiness of his children and the good of
his race.
Just one more thought, I would sug
gest, for your fireside meditation to-day.
Remember, parent, that you are creating
the moral atmosphere which your chil
dren breathe. Therefore .keep your
tongue from speaking guile, aud keep ev
ery avenue well guarded against the ap
proach of evil. Keep out of all household
conversation vulgar aud vicious subject*,
envious pettishness and friyolous gossip.
Above all things do not use them your
self, or suffer your childreu to use the
miserable “slang phrases” which are be
coming so disgustingly prominent In the
fashionable conversation of the day.
Unhappily these phrases—this libel on
good breeding, are not confined to the
wale portion of the household only. We
bear of ladies—of young ladies, saying:
“I sat down on him,” ‘T everlastingly
went for him,” “I gave him “away,” “He
went hack on me,” and the more idiotic
expression, ‘1 should smile.”
This language might bo admissible in »
bar room or brothel, hut it is certainly of
fensive to polite society—to.a pure, culti
vated woman. All such double entendres
should be avoided in the household, and
then they would never find their way into
tlie parlor or reception room. As language
is only a sign of Ideas, and the struggling
expression of thought, so when these phra
ses are beard, tlie thoughtful listener looks
beyond the surface, and not only detects
bad taste, but an evil thought. Modesty
and purity of thought co-exist, sad are
the brightest ornaments of female charac
ter. Tlierefore, do not degrade your
household by sanctioning these corrupting
.phrases.
Parent, the language of the household
Is as important as the air your children
breathe.. Keep it pure. Aud .when this
is accomplished, and when their food an
sweeten their natures than any amount of
direct admonition given. It is the moral
atmosphere, not the teachings of the home
circle, that educates the children.
The Cotton Crop.
The reports of Professor Riley’s ento
mologists, Who have been stationed in all
the cotton States, investigating the habits
of the caterpillar and .boll worm, and, as a
matter of course,have kept pretty well post
ed on the condition and prospects of the
crop, authorize him to say: “It is doubt
ful whether tlie crop, as a whole, will
equal that ol last year, notwithstanding
the larger acreage.” That opinion, we
suppose, embodies the general conclusion
of the cotton growers, so far as they have
arrived at any. The crop of last year (5,-
757,307 bales) showed a gain almost of
700,000 bales on the year previous and was
consequently abnormal—the result of. an
unusually protracted season of growth
and gathering. Take the crop of 1832-3
and compare it with that of last year, and
we get a net gain of 4,680,959 bale3 in
forty-five years, or an average gain of 104,-
155 bales a year, against 677,866 hales
gain last year on tlie year before. The
crop of 1877-78 showed a gain on
the previous crop of 262,306 hales. The
crop of 1876-7 showed a gain on the
previous crop of 325,842 bales. Thus it
will be seen that last year’s crop showed
largely over a double gain on the crop of
18789, and, therefore, a crop this current
year equal to that of last year, would still
leave over the average rate of increase by
dividing the abnormal increase of 1879-80
between the two crop jrws. A crop of
5,757,000 bales this year will, therefore,
sustain a rate of increase in normal crop
productions far above the average.
Grant's Assault on Hancock.
The American people (a few politicians
excepted) were no doubt profoundly sur
prised by the appearance of that violent
assault on Hancock in our telegrams yes
terday, which was also sent through the
medium of the associated prcs3 to every
daUy newspaper in tlie country. It pro
fessed to be a narrative of a conversation
in Grant’s study, at Galena, on the 21st of
September last, with Dr. C. H. Fowler,
lately editor of the New York Christian
Advocate—a violent pulpit politician,
who, for tjiat reason, as has been stated,
was substituted in his editorial functions
some months ago by a clergyman of more
moderate opinions, and more conciliatory
temper. This Dr. Fowler took down the
words of the ex-President, and, after the
lapse of time agreed upon, printed them,
with the written consent of Grant.
It is a new thing in American politics
that an ex-President should condescend
to lampoon a nominee for that office, and
should deliberately bring the weight of
his personal character and antecedents to
break down popular confidence in Ills
ability and integrity. The extreme un
graciousness aud illiberality of such an
attempt—tho evident hazard to the man
who makes and to the parly which calls
for it, show that it is dictated by mere
party desperation. The Garfield leaders
know that, as affairs stand, they have lost
the canvass already, before a vote has
been polled. They know, therefore, that
they cannot be materially hurt, and that
nothing but some extreme and unusual
remedy can possibly benefit their case.
Some of the Western papers and Wash
ington quidnuncs have been agitating for
a few weeks a scheme to substitute Grant
for Garfield as the nominee; hut as this
proceeding would amount to open confes
sion of defeat, it has evidently been aban
doned in favor of tbis malignant and per
sonal assault ou the character of Hancock
by Grant, with a view to avail Garfield
of Grant’s personal popularity, Instead of
pulling him down and running Grant
himself. This may account for the four
teen days of interval, after forging tliat
thunderbolt, before it was launched upon
the telegraphic wires.
Grant's bill'of indictment, we have no
doubt, will be met with crushing effect by
Hancock. As to his sneers at Hancock’s
msntal capacity, that trick ha3 been thor
oughly tried, and like a boomerang has
wounded only its authors. No man ever
A Champion Falsifier.
General Grant has taken the field for
Garfield, and can utter slanders and fal
sify facts as glibly as Conkling or any
other of the Republican leaders.
That he is doing this in furtherance of
his own interests in 1884 is too transpar-
cn'. for concealment. In the language of
the New York Sun he “is universally
known to .be too selfish and too cold
blooded to make the great exertions he is
leaking in this campaign on any man’s
account hut his own.” Listen to the am
bitious ex-President In his new role of a
political speaker:
llama Republican, as the two great po
litical parties are now divided, because
the Republican party is the national par
ty, seeking the greatest good for the great
est number of its citizens. There is not
a precinct in this vast nation where a
Democrat cannot cast .his ballot, and have
it counted as cast, no matter what the
predominance of the opposite party. He
can proclaim his political opinions, even
if he is one among thousands, without
fear and without proscription on account
of his opinions. There are fourteen States,
and localities in some others, where Re
publicans have not this privilege. This is
one reason why I am a Republican. But
I am a Republican for many other reasons.
The Republican parly assures protection
to life, property, public credit and the
payment of the debts of the government,
State, county, or municipality, so far as it
can control. The Democratic party does
riot promise this.
If it does it has broken its promises to the
extent of hundreds of millions, as many
Northern Democrats can testify to their
sorrow. I am a Republican, as between
existing parties, because It fosters the
productions of the field aud farm and of
mar .[factories, and it encourages the gen
eral education of the poor as well as rich.
The Democratic party discourages all
these when in absolute power. The Re
publican party is the party of progress and
of liberality towards its opponents. It en
courages tlie poor to strive to better their
condition, the ignorant to educate their
children to enable them to compete suc
cessfully with their more fortunate asso
ciates, and, in fine, it secures an entire
equality before the law to every citizen,
no matter what his race, nationals
ty or previous condition. It tolerates no
privileged class; every one has an oppor
tunity to make himself all he is capable
of. Ladies and gentlemen, do you be
lieve this can he truthfully said in the
greater part of fourteen of the States of
tliis Union to-day yvhich the Demo
cratic party controls* absolutely?
Yet tliis same Grant is the man who
drove the unoffending and unresisting
people of South Carolina into the woods,
aud caused his armed minions to hunt
them down like dogs on the mere suspi
cion that they were connected with the
Ku-Klux clan. He was the Federal
despot, too, who look armed possession of
tlie legislatures of several States, and vir-
tuallyoverturned their local governments.
Who counted out Gordon aud Installed
Bullock but Grant’s troops? Who was
it that stood ready to seat the fraudulent
ly elected Mr. Hayes hut Grant, with all
tlie army of the United States at his
hack? Who sought a third term in the
opinion of many to perpetuate his own
power and overthrow the liberties of his
.country? Ulysses Grant was that man;
and yet he has the check to arraign the De
mocracy as the party of proscription and
oppression.
Andrew Female College opened with a
“boom.” Dr. Hamilton is now getting
what he has deserved for years, Ills large
boarding-home full of young ladies from
a distance, and nearly all the girls of our
city. Most of our citizens know how to
appreciate the advantages of Andrew
College. We are all proud of it because
we know it is a No. 1 college for young
ladies. Dr. Hamilton, with his large and
spacious rooms, will soon have to add to
them to 1-old his young lady students. It
is a great misfortune for any father in
southwest Georgia who has daughters if
he is not able to educate them at Dr.
Hamilton’s college, for this is the college.
Come and see for yourselves, and your
readers will say Gunn did not say enough
for the Agricultural and Hamilton’s col
leges. '
General Garfield’s Animas Towards
the South.
In his speech in Congress on the “Con
fiscation Act,” the Republican candidate

erance: “Confiscate their eStatds, both

The war began by proclamation, and It
must end by proclamation. We can hold
the insurgent States in military subjection
for half a century if need be. I want to
sec in all those States the men who fought
and suffered for the truth tilling the fields
on which they pitched their tents.”
Grant Explains.
The point raised is, how could that
sharp aud bitter Dr. Fowler, holding an
interview in the secrecy of Grant’s study
—writing it out with great care—submit
ting it to Grant for correction, and then
requiring Grant’s written instructions to
print it, get it down, after all, so wrong
that ft takes longer to correct it than to
make the original statement ? That is tlie
point raised by the committee. If it be
said that Grant was drunk at tho onetime
and sober at tlie other, and eo constituted
two individuals, we reply that Grant is
said to have rested content with cold
water since'he was in China. Fowler
might have been drunk or mad, hut Grant
was sober. As his explanation leaves it,
he must explain again, before the public
can understand precisely what crimes he
means to charge on Hancock.
A Liberal Offer.
Mr. J. H. Estill, the enterprising pro
prietor of the Southern Farmers’ Month
ly, impressed with the importance of veg
etable gardening aud fruit culture in
Georgia, will pay one hundred dollars for
the best practical treatise upon these com
paratively new Industries at the South.
The contest will bo decided in March,
1S81, and after the scaled manuscripts
have been opened aud examined, if any

weeks ago ostensibly to spend his vaca-
achieved so solid and universal
lion for a long head and uncommonly Morions to be received, the reward will be
sound judgment as Hancock has won dur- forthwith to the author, and the
Ing the few weeks public attention lias
been particularly drawn to him as a can
didate for the presidency.
Grant assails his military capacity. If
sincere, lie stands alone. Hancock’s re
cord as»soldier is without a blemish.
Even Grant himself spoke well of him as a
soldier when first nominated, and General
Sherman said ho would underwrite the
highest compliment that could be paid to
Hancock as a soldier and a man. No
body ever before questioned him in either
capacity.
Grant assails his integrity and patriot
ism-tries to complicate him in a scheme
to swindle Louisiana out of large sums ot
money. Nobody so well as Grant knows
the rampant rascality, which, during the
period of reconstruction and bayonet rule,
sought to rob Louisiana of ier money
and her liberty. Wc can appreciate the
hardihood, which at this time seeks to
draw the attention of the people of the
United States to the black record of fraud
and oppression perpetrated < n Louisiana,
before she finally threw offthe carpet-hag
and Radical yoke.
Every line which fell from Hancock
during this long and exciting period was
full of wisdom aud exalted patriotism,
and even his private correspondence,
which lias been brought to light by the
pertinacious calls of personal enemies,
has only raised him higher in public opin
ion. We believe this ruthless assault will
have the same effect.
Not a breath of slander was ever raised
against Hancock until, while in command
of Louisiana and Texas, his orders from a
corrupt administration came in conflict
with his fundamental obligations as an
American citizen, and then he asked for a
recall, because he could not consent to be
made an instrument of lawless tyranny.
The personal challenge of Grant will bring
Hancock’s whole career in Louisiana un
der review, and we are sure that no part
of his life will so warmly commend him
to the confidence of the American people-
work published seriatim in the Farmers’
Monthly, and afterwards handsomely
printed in book form. If none of the
manuscripts are approved by the judges,
they will be returned, and the offer re
newed. The accepted manuscript, it is
understood, will he the property of Mr.
Estill.
Such enterprise is worthy of all com
mendation. The Farmers' Monthly is
the most complete and best agricultural
magazine of the kind published in the
State. It should be taken and read by all
who cultivate the soil.

The presidential canvass in Florida be
gins to wax worm, and the friends of
Hancock and Bloxhamaro putting in some
splendid work for the State and national
standard bearers of the Democracy. The
Jacksonvile Union (dem.) gives a glowing
account of a recent Democratic rally in
that city. Among tlie speakers was Dr.
George Troup Maxwell, a Georgian by
birth, but for many years an influential
citizen of Florida. The Union has this
to say of the Doctor’s effort:
Dr. Maxwell’s speech was a most ex
cellent one, being instructive, convincing
and highly Interesting. His flue persouel
and distinct enunciation added effect to
his sterling language as does the jeweler’s
polish to his golden wares. He met with
frequent and spontaneous applause, which
was continued some time after he closed.
The Doctor had many warm personal
friends in the audience who had not seen
him since his departure from the city sqjne
ten years ago, aud after the adjournment
of the club he received plenty of hearty
hand-shakes from them.
Speaking of the dirty utterances of Par
son Hicks and other Republican orators,
the Union remarks:
If the Sun and Press and its party lead
ers desire that both parties “keep cool,” it
would be well for them to learn some of
their candidates a little prudence. It is
not in human nature, especially Southern
human nature, to keep cool under some ol
the incendiary harangues to which they
have been treated by Republican “hot
bloods,” who have more tongue tliau
brains.
A Flourishing Institution.
Our friend, J. MeK. Gunn, of Cuthbert,
who is one of tlie biggest-sonled, clever
est and most prosperous merchants in
Georgia, in a characteris'd.: letter to the
Lumpkin Independent, thus speaks of Dr.
Hamilton’s work in that community:
“Glucose,"
Which is a filthy preparation from com,
acids, charcoal, etc., used by many people
in these times for sugar and syrup, is, as
to its manufacture, described as follows
by an agent of underwriters at Chicago:
It appears that there are 15 factories in
this country, producing glucose at the
rate of about 500 tons a day, or 360,000,-
000 pounds a year. The manufacture be
gan in the United States m 1867, near
this city, and, although several establish
ments were quickly put in operation at
various points, most of them proved finan
cial failures. Since 1875, however, the
business has prospered and the impression
is general that it is very profitable. Some
ten or more additional factories are now
projected; so that it is probable that an
other year will see a product of 1,000
tons daily average. Elsewhere than
in this countiy glucose is made
mostly from potatoes ; hut here
it is almost exclusively made
from com. Each bushel of corn makes
from 26 to 30 pounds of glucose (syrup or
sugar), which brings from two aud a
half to four cents per pound. As corn, at
Chicago for example, is worth only about
35 to 40 cents a bushel, while the cost of
manufacture is but 25 to 35 cents a bush
el, the best appointed factories can make
40 or 50 cents profit on each bushel of com
worked into glucose. The process is one
requiring mucli skill and close, careful at
tention; 'and success depends almost en
tirely upon one man, the chemist in each
factory. The various steps in the process
of manufacture are given in detail by Mr.
Rcdfield, hut we have not space even to
summarize them here.
The uses of glucose, it appears, are
quite various. It is a large component
(averaging 75 per cent.) of most table
syrups. In making candy and confection
ery it lias become the principal factor. It
is mixed with sugar—usually tlie light
biown sugar—in the proportion of from 7
to 40 per cent. Maple sugar, especially,
is largely adulterated with glucose. It is
also extensively used in the manufacture
of vinegar, wine, ale and beer (on account
of its fermenting power); also in fruit pre
serving, medical syrups, distilling, tobacco
manufacture, and the adulteration of
honey. As toits beinginjurioustiL-caltb,
Mr. Redfield appears to bo no alarmist,
although he considers it desirable that
some method of inspection should be
adopted for tlie security of the public in its
careful manufacture.
The Indiana Election.
According to a proposition made by
Hon. W. H. English, chairman of the
Democratic executive committee of Indi
ana, and accepted by John C. New, chair
man of the Republican executive commit
tee, the following proposition has been
agreed upon:
Indianapolis, Ind., Oct., 1, 1880.—
With the sanctiou of our respective com
mittees, and by their authority, we re
quest and direct that the agreement set
forth iu the foregoing letters he car
ried out, that Is to say, that, in all elec
tion precincts where the inspector is a
Democrat, he shall appoint a judge and
clerk, to be selected by the Republicans
of such precinct, and, where the inspec
tor is a Republican, he shall appoint a
judge and clerk, to be selected by the
Democrats of the precinct.

mittee. .
The same paper has a dispatch from
Fort Wayne, Indiana, which tells of tlie
advent there of the one Col. Burke, an
official of the United States Treasury De
partment, who is described as a handy
tlon, but, as events have proved, to labor
with .the doubtful Irish aud French voters
of Allen county. He is a man of good
address, and is possessed with a happy
faculty of making friends wherever lie
goes. He has an unlimited supply of
money, which he spends lavishly, often
times exhibiting rolls of bills amounting
to $800 to $1,000. He says he is here to
spend it for the Republican party, and he
doesn’t care who knows it. The Repub
lican committee has furnished him lists
of weak-kneed Democrats, and hs puts in
all his spire time with them. He lias
made a number of open ceuverts aud his
influence is feared. There is no proof
that lie has used mouey corruptly, but it
has been observed that whenever any oi
his new-found friends renounce their alle
giance to their party they are usually
“flush.” He talks French like a native,
sings French songs nicely, and dances with
French girls to perfection, and when he
cuts louse among the Irish, his fascinations
are irresistible.
CoL D. IT. Speer.
The North Georgia Citizen, published^
at Dalton, says:
At our masthead will be seen the name
of Col. D. N. Speer for treasurer. This
gentleman was the regular nominee for
that position, and deserves the support oi
the people of this section, insomuch as he
is a most efficient and well qualified gen
tleman for the office of treasurer. Cast
your suffrage for him, voters of this sec
tion, for he is the light man.
Irwinton Southerner: Mr. Renfroe,
treasurer, refused to allow his name to go
before the convention, and Mr. D. N.
Speer, of Troup, was nominated by accla
mation for State treasurer. Mr. Speer is
highly spoken of by those who know him
best, and wc have no doubt will fill the
office witli credit, tie will scarcely be
called to answer articles ot impeach

From Jasper.
Monticello, Ga., Oct. 2, I860.
Editors Telegraph and Messenger:
The cause of Governor Colquitt aud “of
us all,” ha* needed no bolstering in Jas
per, hut we have been movine quietly
aloug an l so very nearly unanimous in
our intention to sustain Colquitt and De
mocracy, that we felt sure of being the
winners of that banner, but the Norwood
man here, finding that at least “a prophet
was not without hdnor save in his own
land,” and that victory was Colquitt’s,
brought in the Hessians.
After three or four days’notice, too
short a time for ns to prepare to have
them met, the terrible, the rising Mr.
Jemison and the facetious Small—Mr.
Small convoyed by a certain Mr. Loy-
all (?) erstwhile of Atlanta—arrived in
Monticello, and the Jordon-Norwood
boom sprang into full life, only to die in
less time than did the lamented Solomon
Grundy, according to the historian T. M.
Norwood. (See civil rights speech U. S.
Si,) for he says Grundy lived six days,
whereas Norwood’s boom lived one-quar
ter of one day and then expired here.
There is one “3ugared” negro try ing to gal
vanize the corpse into life. Tlie head
nurse has fled to the home of Cindnna-
tus.
(Messrs. Small and Jemison found Col.
J. W. Prestou and others willing to di
vide lime with them if allowed, and it
was agreed that each side should have two
hours, they opeumg and concluding, aud
“our Joe” answering. A fair number of
whites and blacks were present.
The speeches were a repetition of the
following charges: J. The action of the
Governor in making the “Citizen’s” bank
a State depository instead of Mr. Coker’s.
2. That the Governor was instructed by
the Legislature to issue fi. fas vs. Renj
free and securities, for the interest mon
ey, aud had failed to do so; had also failed
to retain lteufroe’s salary, and upon tlie
securities in the Alston’s case, the securi
ties were thereby discharged, and $22,500
lost to the State. 3. The payment of
the convention bomls to General Toombs.
4. The convict abuses (illustrated by the
catechism.) 5. That the Governor levied
illegal taxes. 6. The Northeastern bonds
and the failure to eject Murphy. 7. Janes
and the Agricultural Department. 8
Nelms conduct and the failure to remove
him. 9. The action of the Governor in
reference to the sale of the Macon and
Brunswick railroad—Mr. S. asserting that
Norwood, if elected, will favor the exten
sion of the road.
The speakers assumed to qnote entirely
from the record, and to deal fairly and
candidly; their mauner was pleasant—not
offensive—aud they had a fair hearing,
with some applause whenever they told an
amusing anecdote (and they have a sup
ply of good ones); but when their two
opening speeches had been concluded the
walls almost shook with cries for “Pres
ton,” and “Hurrah for Colquitt.”
Colonel Preston arose, his face beam
ing and every nerve vibrating, to mane his
first purely political speech; and, quoting
from the records before him, with giant
blows of facts and their logic he refuted
every attack, turned tlieir own guns upon
the Norwood party, and carried a war, in
which green gogglessand substitutes were
not available, into Africa; and, amid the
plaudits of hundreds, he cemented anew
the foundation stones ot the altar of vic
tory, previously laid by the friends of
“Colquitt and Democracy,” the cap-stone
of which will he firmly laid and inscribed
by the people of Jasper county and of
Georgia on the Ctb of October, 1880.

Charlotte, N. C., October C.—To
day was the second of the centennial cele
bration at King’s Mountain, and not less-
than 10,000 people gathered on the
ground. At 11 o’clock the assembled
military paraded on the battle ground in
lieu of the plan of the battle, wbicb bad
been abandoned, to the disappointment of
the large crowd which bad assembled to

A Great Apple Year.—In 1878,
when apples were unusually plentiful,
333,000 barrels full were sent abroad, but
it is calculated that this year no less than
500,000 barrels will be shipped to Europe*
where the crop is said to he almost an en
tire failure. This of course gives Ameri
can shippers au open market, and will re
sult, as has been staled, in the shipment
ofhalf a million barrels of the fruit. The
prices realized in Europe, too, are double
what can be obtained here; so that it can
readily be understood how important s
part the European markets play in toe
fruit trade. A significant feature of the
shipments is the met that many of them
are made from Montreal, where the
freight rates are so much lower than in
New York, that money • can he saved by
sending American apples there to le
shipped abroad.

■ Cameron Gives Ur Indiana.—In an
interview with a representative of the
Philadelphia Evening Telegraph, Friday,
Don Cameron said:
None of the Republican managers In
Indiana are willing to go so far as to claim
the State as sure for Porter. They know
bow desperately the Democrats are work
ing: that the Slate lias been Democratic
for nine successive years, and that the
State officials are all Democrats, thus
placing tlie Republicans at a disadvantage.
Both sides are working very hard, but the
Democrats seem more fearful of defeat
than the Republicans. It is a big task for
the Republicans to carry the State, and it
does not seem probable that they will with
*ucli odds against them. 'If they keep the
Democratic majority down to tbe figures
of 1876, when it was about 5,900, the
Republicans should lie satisfied, and be
• prepared to make a strong fight in New
York, New Jersey aud Connecticut.
As to New York.— 1 The Boston Her
ald has this to say upon a Tribune’s warn
ing to the brethren against the danger of
over-confidence:
“ Tbe Tribune warns the Republicans
of New York that “over-confidence would
be fatal this year,” and that, “if they
have been neglecting organization and
hard work, in any locality, now is the
time far them to repair tlie error.” We
should say so. But, if the party’s only
danger is from “over-confidence” of car
rying New York, we don’t imagine ft
needs any warning. No tw® Republicans
of: Ui»t state wlio know enough to find
their way to the polls alone could put on
an “over-confident” air, when unobserved
by curious Democrats, without ending up
by laughing in each other’s faces—or sol
emnly winking with one eye, if unequal,
as they probably would be, to the hilari
ous performance. The real danger is
that they won’t have confidence enough.
The suggestion of over-confidence is too
dignified for a joke, and too facetious for
a warning.”
Rugby Dedicated.
Chattanooga, October 5.—A special
to the Times gives an aceount of the for
mal dedication of Rugby to-day. There
was a large attendance. The ceremonies
opened with impressive religious services
conducted by Bishop Quintard, of Ten
nessee, and Rev. H. H. Srncde, of Chatta
nooga. A poem was read by Miss Z. Vir
ginia French. Addresses were made by
Hon. Tom Hughes, Cyrus Clark, niau-
aeer of the colouy, Judge O. P. Temple,
of Knoxville, L. Dana Horton, of Pom
eroy, Ohio, and Franklin W. Smith, of
Boston. Iu the course of his remarks
Mr. Hughes said:
“I am anxious to take this opportunity
to remove an impression which seems to
have got abroad that the settlement we
are planting on these mountains to-day is
intended to be an English colony in a
small, exclusive sense. Nothing can be
farther from the wishes and intentions of
the founders. In a sense it is an Euglish
colony, tio doubt, because at preseut all
the settlers are Euglish; but we hope that
this will very soon cease. Our settlement
is open to all who like our principles and
our ways and care to come here to make
homes for themselves freely, without re
serve or condition of any kind which does
not bind us Euglish also. Although the
majority of us, members of this hoard, are
English, we have already amongst us a
large and, t am happy to say, an increas
ing number of American citizens. Leading
men, not only in Boston where tlie enter
prise was first undertaken, but in New
York, Philadelphia and Cincinnati, belong
to us, and are as earnest and active in the
work as any of our English members.
They are as firmly convinced as we that
the future of our race, and indeed of the
world, in which our race is so clearly des
tined to play a leading pai t, can never be
what it should he until the most cordial
alliance, the most intimate relations, have
been established formally, without any
risk or possibility of disturbance or mis
understanding, between its two great
branches. We know of no way in which
this can bo brought about better than by
such efforts as these we are making, in
which Englishmen and Americans can
stand shoulder to shoulder and work with
one mind and one heart for the same great
end.”
A Terrible Accident.
Jacksonville, Fla., October 5.—A
heartrending accident occurred inLavilla,
a suburb of this city, to-day about two
o’clock. Mrs. Wm. Clark had just fin
ished the family meal, and two of her
children had taken seals at the table,
while a third stood by her, neara gasoline
stove reservoir, whiclt she was about to
fill. From some unexplained cause, the
vessel of gasoline which Mrs. Clark held
became iguited, and a fearful explosion
occurred, filling the soom instantly with
a volume of intense flame. Mrs. Clark
and her three children were burned iu a
most horrible manner. Tlie three chil
dren have died, and there is little hope of
the recovery of the mother. Mr. Clark is
one of the leading business men in the
place, and Mrs. Clark was greatly beloved
by a large circle of friends. The sad ca
lamity has cast a gloom over the entire
community;
Kinp’c Mountain Centennial.
Charlotte, October 5.—The ceremo
nies to-day at King’s Mountain were pre
liminary to what :s"to follow for the next
three days. There were two thousand
people present, and the exercises included
a re-union of States. The celebration was
held on the very battle ground and near
the spot where Ferguson, the British com
mander, fall. The association has cleared
ofl an area of twenty-five acres on the
battle field for the ceremony. King’s
Gen. Grant said lately: “The greatest
bore of my life is that everybody wants-
me to cat, and they don't .think they shear
me any hospitality unless au hour aud a
half is spent at the table. Now, when
yon come to cat lour meals a day, at that
rate you would lose six hours of what is
oiten valuable time.”
Capt. Eads has written to the admin

nel would enable the steamship to pass up

New Y ork Herald: There are men,
by no means few, in the Repulican party
who, twenty years ago, were horror
stricken when men like Horace Greeley
and Wendell Phillips spoke in any way
about letting the Southern States go, but
now they say that they wish that nothing
had ever been done to bring them hack.
The Union League Club of New
York has been boldly invaded by its
Hancock members. The Garfield men
having posted a notice asking for contri
butions for the Republicans, the Han
cock members of the club have also pos
ted their notice asking for contributions to
be sent to Frederick P. Olcott, an old and
prominent, member, to promote Hancock’s
election. Things ate getting mixed in
Gotham.
A way to bet with perfect safety on the
election has been devised. A says to B:
“I’ll bet you $5 that I can name twenty-
five States that will go for Garfield;” or
he will make the same offer on Hancock.
B accepts the offer, of course. A then
says: “I’ll bet $151 can name four other
States that will go for Garfield.” B thinks
this is more absurd than the previous
proposition, and takes it up promptly.
Then A names twenty-five States, leaving
out four that are sure to he carried by
Garfield, and these four he names as the
“four others.” Thus ho loses $3 on the
forst but gets $15 on the second.
New York Politics.—A canvass of.
the election districts of the State of New
York, under the direction of the Demo
cratic State committee, shows gains over
the vote of 1876. • The Democratic mem
bers of the New York Union League
Club, who are irritated at the collection
of money by orders of the club as such for
the Republican campaign, -have issued a
circular notifying the members of_the
club that such of them as desire to con
tribute to the legitimate expenses of elect
ing Gen. Hancock can semi tneir sub
scriptions to ex-Comptroller F. P. Olcott*
at Phelps, Stokes & Co.’s, 47 Wall street.
A Hydromotor Steamer —At Keil*
Germany, the first trial-trip was recently
made of tbehydromotor ship invented by
Dr. I le idler, of Leipzig. Tlie ship which
is or 17 feet beam, lit) feet long aud 54-
feet draft, burden 100 tons, made 10 knot*
an hour. She is propelled by the force of
hydraulic reaction, without the aid of
either paddles or screw. The water pas
ses into a reservoir in the bold through,
holes in tbe bottom, and i3 thence pumped
out and emptied into the soa by a centrif
ugal pump worked by the ship's engine,
the discharge ot water propelling the ves-
•ei. The engine discharged 5,000 gallons
a minute, and is said to have produced a
stronger propelling power thau screw or-
paddle, while t ue motion was without jar
and gentle os sailing. Tlie vessel could
be stopped, backed or turned instantly, so
as to be free from all danger of colisxon.
Indeed a vessel thus propelled can be
made to revolve in a circle about its own
axis.
