Xbe New ^ orlc CJiromcle of Saturilay I upon the public miud in Georgia
reports.the cotton receipts of the seven
days ending Friday night, 6th instant, at
251,108 bales, against 225,081 bales the
corresponding week oT last year. Total
receipts from 1st September to last Fri
day, 1,042,004, against 1,447,222 bales last
year to same date, showing a gain of
194,842 bales. [The Exchange figures
make the gain 245,213 bales.]
The Chronicle's Interior port tables
makes the receipts at those ports for the
seven days ending Friday night 113,104
bales, against 102,122 the same week ot
last year. Shipments 8S,0S1 against 83,-
932 last year. Stocks 204,759, against

bales last year at tha^ date, 1,025,821
bales in 1878, and 1,019,058 to 1817, at tlia

it Was-5 11-10, and In 1817 it was 0 9-l<f.
As to the Chronicle's weather reports
for the week ending last Friday, and other
reports to Monday, we judge that the rec
ord of the growing crop in tho field has
been generally concluded. Rainfall, frost
and tbe election made a poor exhibit of
picking for the week ending last Friday,
aud transportation has been a good deal
interrupted in Texas. The rainfall In
Texas during October was 2.20 in Galves
ton, 3.42 to Indianoia, 1.40 in Corsicana,
2.05 in Dallas, one inch in Brenliam, and
the same in Vr aco. In New Orleans the
rainfall in October was 1.8S. Iu Vicks
burg it rained six days daring the week.
In Columbus, Mississippi, there were four
days of rain during tlie week and a killing
frost. Tbe rainfall iu October at Colum
bus was 4.51. At Little Rock there was a
killing frost on Monday, the 1st instant.
Tbe rainfall in October was 2.24. At
Memphis there was five days of rain m
the week and 1.05 1n October. Hall the

the week.
In Alabama, at Mobile, it rained six
days in tbe week, the rainfall amounting
to 3.11. In October the rainfall amount

The Chronicle appends the following to
its table of receipts from plantations:
1. That the total receipts from the plan
tations since Sept. 1 in 1SS0 were
1,825,880 bales; to 1879 were 1,573,820
bales; in 1818 were 1,332,075 bales.
2. That the receipts at the out-
ports the past week were 221,768 bales, and
the actual movement from plantations
270,851 bales, the balance being added
to stocks at tho interior ports. Last
Year the receipts from the plantations tor
tbe same week were 243,257 bales and for
1878 they were 217,338 bales.
Since Friday snow and ice bave been
noticed in Texas, and the mercury in
Georgia has been down to the/reezing

than another, it is that we have too many
elections.- They are demoralizing in their
influence, and destructive In their tenden
cy. We have passed through the most ex
citing State campaign that Georgia has ex
perienced in many years, and also through
the Presidential canvass. Most of our
cities have next on docket municipal elec
tions, to Ijo followed in January, 1881,
with county elections, all or which pro
duce more or less friction. We are tired
of this political turmoil ahd beg for rest.
While it is true that tho public func
tionaries, by long occupancy, arc liable to
become Independent, forget that they are
servants and assume to be masters; yet
being fixed for a period in which politics
may change greatly, they are more apt to
serve the people tban their party follow
ers.
At all events experience demonstrates
that even the best men can accomplish
but little good during a brief term of of
fice. To the writer the most objectiona
ble feature in our new constitution Is the
one shortening the term of Governor and
other officers,involving the people in the ex
pense and political commotion attendant
upon a popular canvass. Far better, if
these opportunities were less frequent.
Tbe people need a cessation of party
strife, and a full opportunity to devote
their energies to the Improvement of
their material condition. The longer the
penod intervening between these ex
citing political contests the greater will
be their prosperity.
Legislature Hatters.
It is presumable that the wheels of leg
islation will remain fast locked at Atlanta
until the numerous elections now pending
aro over. It is to be sincerely hoped,
therefore, that they will be all held this
week, as nothing can be more distracting,
not to say demoralizing, to membeis than
tho active cauvass among them of half a
hundred aspirants for office. Some feel
ing appears to be manifested as to tho or
der to be observed in conducting these
eltc‘.ions.”|The usual precedents, what
ever they may be, of course ought to be
adhered to, though perhaps each General
Assembly is competent to regulate its own
action in the premises. At all events let
the matter be settled by taking tho sense
of both houses with the least delay possi
ble, and then proceeding to elect at once.
We trust the session will be both brief and
harmonious.
Hew York, The Ely in the Apothe
cary’s Ointment.
Since the advent of the “bam burners,”
in the days of John Van Boren, who split
in twain the Democracy of the Em
pire State, to the present time, New
York, great and potential as she is in
population and political influence, has
been a mere marplot iu the councils of
the party. Local questions have been
made to override national politics, and
corrupt cliques and partisan hacks have
dominated in every election. This has
been eminently tbe case also in the recent
Presidential contest. Iu tbe language of
the World, “the vote of New York State
will be given to General Garfield, not be- 1
cause General Garfield is the choice of
a majority of the voters of New York,
but because, not for the first time in the
history of our municipal parties, local and
personal interests have been preferred to
the general welfare of tbe party and of the
country.”
It was so in the days of Tweed, when be
ran for the New York Senate and was
elected, though at the cost of an entire
county ticket ana Democratic Legislature.
New York, says tbe World, in the re
cent election, “ has secured a Democratic
city government, which is so far a good
thiDg, but it remains to oe seen whether
New York could not have secured this at a
less cost than that ot tho 35 electoral
votes which, added to 138 from tbe
South, 0 from New Jersey and 3 from
Nevada, not to mention California, and
Oregon, would hare elected General
Hancock, President of tbe United States.”
It is too late, however, to complain of
this shameful action on the part of John
Kelly and other representatives of the
wretched Tammany and anti-Tammany
factions, which have not only disgraced
the Democrats of New York, but re
duced their Influence to zero. Once
more has it been demonstrated that the
Democracy of the Union must hence
forth In all critical emergencies make no
Calculation upon the support ol the Em
pire State. Nor should that turbulent
and selfish commonwealth, as hitherto, be
tendered the the lion’s share of tbe offi
ces And honors of the nation. She has
been deferred to -long enough, and only
sets an ugly example.of insubordination
and defection to tbe other States in their
hour of supremest need. To tlie selfish-
teas aad internal dissensions of his party
in Near fork may Gen. Hancock ascribe
his defeat. This and nothing more.
French Enterprise and Fash.
Whatever the French government un
dertakes, it usually prosecutes to comple
tion with tbe greatest industry and suc
cess. The project or building a railroad
to connect tbe provinces of Senegal with
tbe river Niger and Soudan in tlie inte
rior of Africa, seems to be an assured
fact. The New York llullctin says
Tbe scheme originated with the minis
ter of marine, wlio lias provided the ways
and means to cany it out, and is likewise
charged with the execution of it; tlie funds
being provided by tlie Frencli Parliament.
Under tbe command of M. Desbordes, of
the marine artillery, a column of soldiers
and workmen will erect a line of forts be
tween Senegal and tlie Niger. Under the
protection of this column a band of sur
veyors, astronomers aud oilier scientists
will explore aud map the route; their chief
officer being M. Derrien. On October 5
MM. Desbordes aud Derrien embarkui
withtlieir officers at Bordeaux forSt. Louis,
in Senegal, and from thence they will pro
ceed to Bafuuiabc up tbe Senegal river.
Here, some 300 leagues from the coast,
their survey will begin, and the best track

After this
Use Wheat Meal Bread.
Much has been said and written in be
half of the superior nutrition of unbolted
yrheaten bread, over tbe finely ground and
artistically treated flour to which house
keepers are so much wedded. We have
seen it asserted that, the matter having
been fairly tested during many long and
fatiguing marches of tbe English army,
tbe British government now feeds its sol
diers exclusively upon bread made of
wheat, simply ground but not bolted.
“Grabam bread,” as it is termed, is be
coming very popular also iu this country,
anS is found even upon tbe tables of tbe
rich and our most fashionable hotels. Per
sons of sedentary habits often use no
other. An English paper, of recent date
says:
A large meeting was held at the Town
Hail, Kensington, in England, the other
day, under the auspices of the Bread Re
form League, to advocate the universal
use of what is technically known as
“wheat meal bread.” Dr. B. W. Richard
son, the well known authority on hygiene,
presided. One of the speakeis maintained
that tlie bread in common use was forty
per cent, deficient in sustaining qualities.
An entire grain of wheat containing every
thing that was requirod for nourishing
purposes, and yet the belter half of it was
wasted, and this half was much healthier
food, especially for children. A white
loaf, iu fact, was only half a loaf,
for a large portion of the material that
formed muscular flesh, and nearly all that
formed bone, were taken from it. Chil
dren fed on while bread were vety liable
to suffer from rickety bones, consumption
aud bad teeth, because their food did not
nourish them properly. The outward
whiteness of tlie flour might be considered
an outward sign of the starvation within.
One shilling’s worth of wheat meal bread
contained three times the flesh-forming,
seventy times the heat-producing and
three limes the bone-forming material to
be found in a shilling’s wortli of beef
steak. Dr. Richardson maiiuaiued that if
tho mothers of this kingdom were to give
their families wholo meal, which con
tained the structure of the skeleton, in
from three to four generations ail tho dc-
foimities of children, not caused by acci
dents, which they now saw, would pass
away, as by tlie hands of an invisible en
chantress.
preliminary survey has settled
the general route, a second expedition will
take more careful levels, aud the engineer
ing or the work will then be begun. The
Niger once readied by means of this rail
way, Timbuctoo will be accessible by
boats, and a great commercial ceutre
there established for trading into equsto
rial Africa.
This enterprise will probably do more to
civilize and Christianize the benighted
heathen of Africa tban a thousand mission
aries. Who can estimate also the im
mense benefit likely to accrue to ail
Christendom by opening up to cultivation
tiie fabulously fertile and vast region of
central Africa? *
Tennessee IiEOisLATUBE.-The Nash-
yille America*, (very reliable Authority,)
estimates that the Democrats have elected
fifteen State Senators and the Republi
cans ten. Tbe House will stand Demo-
coats thirty-fl.ve; Republicans, thirty-six;
Gnenbsckers one. Three floating dis
tricts are yet to hear tom which will send
Democrats.
It is sow generally conceded that the
Democrats are certain of tbe continued
control of the next United Ntates Senate,
while lutlie House the parties will be
very evenly divided, tbe Greenbackers
irobably holding tbe balance of power.
Lt is very clear, therefore, that Garfield’s
eleetlan will be a barren victory to the
Republicans, so far as tbe inauguration of
a..y of their pet schemes for Southern op
pression are concerned. Tbe (party wilt
be kepi jper force on their good behavior.
The late election will by no means prove
s Sedan to tbe Democrats. Let us take
heart and stand by our colors aa firmly as
ever.

in breathless silence for a great and de

using all imaginable flexions, genuflex

The State Treasurer's Report
The annual report of J. W. Renfroe,

000 each in the treasury, under the pro
visions of an act approved February 28,
1877. These are forty-two in number,
and cover many of the strongest compa
nies in Hie Union.
As the .main features of the report, in

on the “solid South,” but the philosophy
of its abundauco is to be found in its ex
cessive cheapness. If it cost anything, or
were worth anything, we should not get
so much of it, although we freely concede
that those people were never anything else
tban persistently didactic, and always
disposed to second their admonitions with
the lash.
The high eminence of a teacher is grati
fying to human vanity. It presupposes
superiority to knowledge and wisdom;
but still, as the old Judge said to the flu
ent young barrister, “The court. Is to be
presumed to know something.” The
N'oithern brotherhood of counsellors
should bo prepared'to concede a little
common sense to their Southern pupilage.
They should admit that our chances of an
intimate knowledge of the Southern sit
uation in all its aspects are far greater
tban theirs.
For example, it never seems to occur to
them that our first interest, after all, is
domestic and belongs to home govern
ment. Only a few years ago the Southern
States were inthe last stages of bankruptcy,
disorder aud ruin, brought upon us by these
Northern wiseacres, and nothing saved us
—nothing secured us from every peril to
which a misgoverned people could be ex
posed, but tills very solidity—a firm un
ion of the intelligent people of the States
to re-establish public order and accounta
bility. This done, we could breathe free
ly, and look with somo hope to
still farther advances. '

Up tc that time tho federal govern
ment had never done anything else for us
but harm. Its influence had been stead
ily on the side of public disorder. Its in
terference, during tlie whole period of so-
called reconstruction was not for good
but for positive evil to both races. Indus
try prospered in spite of it. The treasury
sops it doled out to its trusted agents were
not of a straw’s value compared with those
fundamental conditions of public order
which the Southern States were nblo to
secure as a result of a firm union of Intel
ligenl opinion.
The talk we hear from them now Is,
“divide your intelligent people.” TVTiat
it means wo can learn by remembering
our ruinous condition before it was united
—with no public Interest safe—with noth
ing hopeful or improving. Southern men
may perhaps now be found willing to back
this delusive proposition, but they are
selling themselves very cheap. No fed
eral honors—no share in the public plun
der-can compensate the loss of an intel
ligent and reliable local government.
Every considerate Southern mau must seo
that our highest interest, as pertaining to
government, lies at home, and must bo
maintained by the effective assertion of an
enlightened public opinion, even if It be
done at tlie cost of maintaining our con
scientious views on federal politics.
Rut tlie advice in favor of Southern di
vision, is fallacious in respect to mere
federal success, aud well do they know it!
So long as the Southern States can hold
consolidated power, so long are they in
the best condition for self-defense—ithe
best condition to rcstraiu federal coirup-
tion, and the best condition for victory
Stand where we are firmly aud patiently
and the problem will work out at last.
The question of corporal punishment
in the public schools has arisen anew in
Boston. The Superintendent says: “Teach
ers of both sexes use personal violence
with their pupils in such forms and such
frcqucucy that the facts if published would
cause unpleasantness. Some put children
into painful and even dangerous positions;
some shake them at times with
such roughness as to tear their clothing,
while many still apply the the rattan as
freely as if it were a feather, and strike not
merely the hand, but tbe head and body.
Within the last month or two some pite
ous cases have been reported to me by
parents whose children had suffered
The monthly reports ot some grammar
schools come in ringing with tbe echoes of

subject, and a majority reported in favor
of dismissing teachers who iuflict whip

The Cave Cod Ship Canal.—Work
is to be immediately resumed on the Cape
Cod Ship Canal, and before September,
1882, between $10,000,000 and 12,000,000
will be expended iu excavating an im
mense basin 10 miles long, 200 feet wide,
and 20 feet deeper than mean low water.
Negotations between Boston aud New
York capitalists on the subject have been
completed, resulting in a practical con
solidation of tbe old and new companies.
The new corporation will be organized
under the charter granted by the Massa
chusetts Legislature of the present year,
and Henry M. Whiting of the Metropol
itan Steamship Company will probably
be retained as President. Assurances
have been received that tbe Delaware and
Hudson Caual Company, the Pennsyl
vania Railroad, aud other corporations in
terested in coal commerce wilt take an
active interest in the enteiprise. Drcls-
bach As Skillman will be tbe principal
contractors, and 1,800 Italians will be em
ployed in the work.
The Tiappfets luliabiting tire convent

Frepostarou aad Ill-AiTJMi.
The proposition of some madcap Dem
ocratic politicians to attempt to set aside
tbe vote of New York, by an appeal to
Congress and tbe appointment of a com
mission to investigate tbe alleged Repub
lican frauds, finds no favor with General
Hancock, and cannot be too strongly de
precated. Aside from the impossibility
of fairly counting out a majority of 20,000
votes, wo should hare the spectacle pre
sented of similar commissions which
would be demanded for other States both
North and South, where tbe least ground
foraa investigation could be devised. Tbe
result would be “confusion worse con
founded,” even if civil war did not super
vene. Such a procedure would also cause
great fluctuations In the stock market, if
it did not precipitate • disastrous panic.
Even tbe mention of the matter has al
ready bad a sensible effect upon “ ’Change.”
No, tbe Democracy bave been outgener
al led and vanquished in tbe late Cbntest,
and should now make the most of It and
learn wisdom in tbe future. We do not
suppose tbe above insane project will
amount to anything serious.
The FmndtUept ^EqntU of Georgia.
An Opportune Production.
We have received a pamphlet prepared
by Mr. Jackson T. Taylor, of Atlanta,
which furnishes a list “of all tbe outstand
ing bonds oi Georgia, valid and invalid,
aud of railroad bonds indorsed by tbe
State, in which tbe good and the value
less are designated.” To obtain this in
formation, which lay scattered along for
years upon the public records, and reduce
it into a compact and authentic shape, re
quired mucli patient labor and research
on the part ot the author, and lie is enti
tled to the thanks of tlie public. Here
after, there will be no excuse tor those
who are victimize’d by tbe purchase of the
bogus securities. .
OI the invalid State bonds, Class I
comprises the gold bonds Issued by Gov.
Bullock in aid of Uie Brunswick aud
Albapy Railroad Company, These
amounted to $1,880,000.
Next, under Class H, comes tbe bonds
of tbe Brunswick aud. Albany, railroad,
formally issued and indorsed by compe
tent authority, but not registered in the
office of the secretary of state., They ag
gregate $1,500,000. ,, , - ,, ,, .
Class III coven another batch of Bul
lock’s - Brunswick and Albany railroad
gold bonds for $1,800,000, payable In
I860.
Class IV includes $1,000,000 of “gold
quarterly coupon bonds of tlie Slate of
Georgia,” issued also by Bullock, but de
clared to be illegal aud void by act of
Legislature, approved August 23d, 1872.
Class V gives the State’s guaranteed
bonds of the Cartersvilie and Van Wert
Railroad Company, numberiug $275,000.
Class VI—The State’s guaranty ou bouds
of the Cherokee Railroad Company,
amounting to $300,990.
• Class VII—Every guaranteed bond
tho Bainbridge, Cuthbert aud Columbus
railroad company. Total of said bonds
$000,000, of which however only $240,000
were ever reported to the bond commit
tee.
Class VIII—The State’s guaranty
$194,000 of the bonds of the Alabama aud
Chattanooga Railroad Company.
Class IX—Bullock’s seven per cent,
“currency bouds,” issued under the act
August 27, 1870, of which there are out
standing $970,000.
Class X—The $375,000 stolen six per
cent, currency bonds of the State, issued
Feb. 17,1654, and Intended to be exchang
ed for outstanding 7 per cent, bonds of the
Central Bank. These bonds were not re
ceived by the bank, however, and were re
placed in tho treasury. They were after
wards stolen while the capitol was held
by the Yankees and taken West to be dis
posed of. As they had never been duly Is
sued by the State, of course their pavnieut
was refused.
Class XI—Tlie bouds of the Macon and
Brunswick Railroad Company, issued un
der act approved October 27, 1870.
Amount, $000,000.
Class XH—Outstanding past-due bonds
of the State to the amount of $37,000.
AH of the above bonds and securities,
after full iuvestigation, have been passed
upon and pronounced invalid by the Leg
islature of Geoigia, and the decision rati
fied by a vote of the people.
All the other outstanding bonds of the
State, whicli it is unnecessary to enumer
ate, are not only valid but gilt-edged secu
rities, commanding high premiums.
Mr. Taylor closes his work with a state
ment of Geoigia’s bonded debt and when
it will mature. It Is as follows:
Whole debt, $9,952,500.00. Will ma
ture: iu 1881, $200,000; in 18S2, $100,000;
In 18S3, $100,000; In 1884, $100,000; in
1885, $100,000; in 18S0, S4,000,000; in
1880, $2,20S,000; in 1890, $2,09S,000; in
1802, $307,600; iu 1800, $542,000 ; 4 per
cent, currency bonds, $107,000.
The State is only liable as the guaran
tor on $724,000 of railroad bonds, to-wit
$404,000 of the South Georgia aud Florida
Company, and $200,000 of the Northeast
ern railroad bonds. Both companies gave
first mortgages on their road-beds and
property, and the State can lose nothing
by them.
All other Stato aid to other toads has
been formally canceled aud repealed by
legislative enactment.
Tlie above is a succinct resume of Mr.
Taylor’s useful work.
A Change of Folicy.
We see it stated that tlie Republican
party have not abandoned the Southern
question. They might as well do so un
less they abandon their “bloody shirt”
policy, ^fo perceptible headway can lie
made in winning tbe South until the bla
tant harangues of Conkling and Blaine
and other stalwarts are silenced. We
claim to bo civilized and, in a large ureas
ure, Christianized, and expect to receive
that consideration due to such a people.
It the Republican party expect to retain
its hold upon the masses of the North it
must change its policy and approach the
Southern question with an even, judicial
spirit. Tho absence of this spirit has
thwarted every previous effort to solve the
Southern question.
Self-preservation is tlie motive which
prompts opposition to Republican rule by
the communities of the South. Republi
can rule here meaus carpet-bag misrule
ana negro domination. It is to turnover
to a set of cormorants and to a set of men
bankrupt of all virtuous reputation at
borne, every interest, both private and
public, in the laud. It would be to re
store tho Scotta and Moses, the Kellogg’s
aud Wells to their former power. It is
this fear that keeps the South solid. It
does not partake of tbe bitterness or hate
engendered by the war, but arises purely
from practical considerations. The
•spirit of rebellion” lias long since died
out, but the spirit of self-preservation
will always exist, and so long as the cause
of carpet-bag government ts tlie cause of
the Republican (tarty in tbe South, just so
long will there be a solid South against
the Republican party. If the business in
terests and the prosperity of tbe North he
coupled with the success oftheRepubli
can party, just so surely aro tlie business
interests and the prosperity of the South
bound up with the fortunes of Uie Demo
cratic party. Tlie experience of tbe past
demonstrates tlie truth of this proposition.
Therefore, if the Republican party
would win iu way into the South it must
show that it does not aim at the restora
tion of the carpet-bag government. It
must show a disposition to deal generous
ly with the South in the matter of na
tional appropriations for iuterual improve-
menu. It must do ail this witli no hope
of partisan advantage or Republican rnle
in tlie Southern States. If the only way
to break up the solid South is to go into
tbe Republican party it will never be bro
ken up. Here was the failure of Mr.
Hayes’ Southern policy. lie came wit j
bis offices and emoluments in one hand,
b&Tthe conditions iu tbe otber. He was
ready to barter his patronage provided tbe
South would voto tbe Republican ticket.
If Mr. Garfield has no wiser measures
than these to propose, lie will as signally
tail. Let these appropriations and other
measures be tendered tlie South because
they are right, and because she Is entitled
to them upon the score of justice, and it
will prove a greater power ia convincing
the South that the Republican party is
seeking tbe good of the whole country,
than ail their offers of barter. We are a
commercial people to some extent, but
we do not seil our honor or self-respect
merely for the benefits of an office.' '
A Curious Scrap of History.
Colonial Greenbacks.
The American colonics early learned the
advantages of a paper representative
money. In 1090, six jesrs before tbe
establishment of tbe Bank of England
Massachusetts issued $36,000 to pay oB her
soidieis who had been ou an expedition
against Canada. Tbe form of the notes or
Dills was as follows :-
“This indented bill of ten shillings due
from the Massachusetts colony to the pos
sessor, shall be in value equal to money,
and shall accordingly be accepted by ibe
treasurer and receivers fubordinatetohim.
In all public paymeoU, and for any stock
at any time in the treasury.”
These hills circulated at par With coin
for twenty years and until redeemed^Hi
I* In 1703, another issue of bills in the
same form tor $45,000 was authorized, and
made a legal tender for debts and redeem
able fn taxes. i
In 1710 another issue of $750,000 was
authorized to be distributed among the
different counties. Tlie issue was put into
tbo bauds of five trustees in each county
to be loaned out on real estate security iu
certain specific sums, for tbe term of ten
years at 5 per cent per annum—the inter
est going to tbe State, audthe principal
redeemable in taxes. This amount was
increased from time to time—giving the
people an ample supply of money, and
from its interest-revenue the colony be
came free from debt In 1773. All the col
onies followed the example of Massachu
setts until England saw that tlie colonies
w.ere becoming too independent and pros
perous for them long to remain dependen
cies. Parliament in 1761 passed an act
forbidding tbe further issue of colonial
money and declaring all acts authorizing
it void.
This was a blow almost aa severe as tlie
contraction and resumption acts of 1850
and 1675. The inouey sharks of Engiaud
had conceived tbe idea that their interests
rested on a specie basis, and they deter
mined then as now, that, right or wron_
everybody else should subscribe to the
idea.
David Hume, in a 'letter to Abbe Mo-
reilel, make the following remarks on the
colonial money of Pennsylvania;
“In our colony of Pennsylvania, tlie
land itself, which is the chief commodity,
is coined, aud passes into circulation. A
planter, immediately after he purchases
any land, can go to a public office and re
ceive notes to the amount of half the
value of his land, which notes he employs
in all payments,and they circulate as money
throughout the colony by convention. To
prevent the public from being overwhelm
ed with this representative money, there
are two meaus employed; first, the notes
issued to any one planter must not ex
ceed a certain sum, whatever may be the
value of his land; secondly every planter
is obliged to pay back into the public of
fice every year one-teutli of his notes.
The whole, of course is annihilated in ten
years; after which it is again allowed him
to take out new notes to half the value ot
liis land.”
This was an ingenious expedient ami
must have made money as plentilul as
blackberries. Bat as time rolled on the
system of issuing “sbinplasteis” based
upon individual credit came into vogue,
so that literally every man that chose to
manufatcured his own money. It is as
tonishing how current some of these
“promises to pay” became, ar.J with what
favor they were received “on change.”
The writer remembers, soon after tlie
war, when the personal bills of J. McK.
Gunn, of Cuthbert, were considered every
whit as good as the national currency.
And so they proved in the end. Not a
dollar of them was disavowed or dishon
ored.
But, unhappily, sucli was not the tact,
with the paper of many other irresponsi
ble private persons and corporations, and
tlie direct effect of this private currency
also, was to curtail the supply of green
backs and cramp tho mercantile opera
tions of the community. Theso consider
ations alone, and not the laws of the coun
try, whicli, as in the case of usury, docld
easily be evaded, eventually put a
quietus to the utterance of individual
shinplasters. And most fervently do we
trust, for the safety of the public, that they
will never be tolerated and taken again.
The Lost Alpena.
Everything relating to the wreck of
this uufortunate craft is read with avidity
by our community, In consequence of the
tragic interest connected with it through
the heart-ren.ling bereavement of our res
pected townsman,Judge T. G. Holt. With
the going down of that vessel sank the
cherished hopes and aspirations which
had been centred In au only son by a de
voted father and mother. God help them
in this hour ol unspeakablo calamity.
From the national Citizen and Sol
dier, of Washington City, we clip the fol
lowing:
The fate of tbe Alpena, which left
Grand Haven on the night ot October 15th
bound for Chicago, seems more depiora
ble, if possible, tiiau that ot the Vera
Cruz, for from Ibe latter vessel a few
wrecked survivors were left to tell tlie
fearful tale, but iu the fearful stoim which
raged through the night or the 15th eighty
souls went to the bottom of the lake in
all probability, and only eternity will re
veal ibe story of that hour of supreme
horror. As usual, no one is to blame.
Those who bave seen parts of the floating
wreck declare the timber to be thorough
ly ration. Tlie owners and officers laugh
at eucii a report. If an Investigation
should follow, of course, like ail suen in
vestigations, the truth will never come to
light.
The Southern Farmer’s Monthly.
After a careful perusal, we can truthfully
say that the November xrimber of tbe
Southern Farmer's Monthly, published at
Savannah by Mr. J. H. Estill, may be pro
nounced tbe best of any previous issue.
Tbe table of contents shows that subjects
smiuently practical and useful have been
treated of, and, the reader will admit, ably
bandied. The present ard future work
of the farmer and horticulturist, the man-
ageuieut of stock aud poultry, fish culture,
the proper application of fertilizers, the
rotatiou ot crops, hygiene, the fall and
winter fashions, aud a large amount of
interesting miscellany, furnish a most
attractive bill of fare to the subscriber.
This journal of agriculture is not only
thoroughly established but justly takes
rank with the best enterprises of tho kind
at the South. In Georgia it has no supe
rior, if, iudecd, a single equal.
The Farmer's Monthly is furnished at
tlie low rate of $2.00 per annum.

Louisiana Is raising an immense crop
of oranges the present season. The New

to Louisiana.
Virginia’s Resources.--The Bristol
News says: Prof. Stevelison, tho New
York geologist, has completed his geolo
gical survey of the country from Bristol
to Imboden City, aud Is now in lids city.
He says the developments to be made by
the Xairow Gauge railroad are tlie grand

Death of Solon Robinson Mr. So
lon Robinson, for many yean the agricul
tural editor of tlie New York Tribune,
died atliis residence iu Jacksonville, Flor
ida, Tuesday morning, in the seventy-
eighth year of his age. Mr. Robinson was
the author of the story, “Hot Corn, or
Life Scenes in New York,” of which over
50,000 copies were sold. Mr. Robinson
also published in I860 “How to Live, or
Domestic Economy Illustrated;” in ISO#,
“Facts for Farmers,” which had a large
circulation, and in 1807 a romance enti
tled “Me-won-I-toc.”
Mrs. Sprague to Sue for a Di
vorce.—The New York Sun states that
Mr. Winchester Britton, ex-district attor
ney of Kings county, has been retained to
bring an action for divorce for Mrs. Kate
Chase Sprague against ex-Gov. Sprague,
Of Rhode Island. He will have tlie pa
pers ready for service in a few days.
Mr. Britton, on his visit to Providence
last week, framed replevin papers for a
piano and a portion of Mrs. Sprague’s
wardrobe, and placed them in the hands
of tlie sheriff to serve. He has since learn
ed that they have been served.
It is estimated, says the Baltimore-
Sun, that 8,000 wild ducks were taken on
the Susquehanna flats, in tho vicinity of
Havre de Grace, last Monday, the first
day of the ducking season. A number of
prominent gentlemen from New York,
including Judge Gildersleeve, participated'
in the slaughter. The greatest number
of ducks killed by any one box was that
of Messrs. Malian and Dobson, who secur
ed 540; the highest number of any encak-
boat was that of Capt, Todd, who got 110.
The fiats still abound with ducks, and it
is said that there is no perceptible de
crease since the day before the gunning
season opened.
A Tribute to General Hancock.—
The New York Herald says: “Gov. Cor
nell’s Thanksgiving proclamation is pub
lished, and Gen. Hancock has probably-
issued a private and personal thanks-
givingordcr of liis own. Among the men
who have been prominently before the
public In the past few months none have
found the excitement as distasteful as he;
on the other Land no candidate lias been
so magnificently impervious torcaiiccand

paign with a reputation as good as he
started with is greater giory thau could
have been gained by au election to the
presidency."
TnE death at Richmond, Ya., on the
27Ui of October of Bishop D. S. Doggett,
of the Methodist Church,South, has created
a profound sensation in tlie Church to
which lie belonged, and in church circles,
generally. He was for more than fifty?
years an active and-influential minister,,
and won and retained great renown as a
preacher, besides filling many positions of
trust and honor, even to the highest in.
the gift of his Church. His funeral on-
Oct. 29 at Richmond, convened an im
mense concourse of people, and w as join
ed in by nearly the whole Protestant
clergy of the city. At Vanderbilt Uni
versity, Nashville, Tenn., an imposing
memorial service under the auspices ot
the Methodist clergy was held ou Sunday*
October 81.
Who Killed Cock Robin?—Every
body knows tbe responsible man—John
Kelly. He is the man who broke down
the Democratic party in the State last
year and elected a Republican governor
by a plurality of 42,777, when the Dem
ocratic vote, if united, was large enough 1
to have re-elected a Democratic governor
by a majority of 34,780. This gave the
whole vast State patronage into the hands-
of General Uaucock’s political adversaries
to be used in aid of Mr. Garfield this year.
That was the first act in the tragedy.
The second act was played a fortnight ago,
when Kelly forced a follower of his own
as tlie Democratic nominee for mayor,
with the desperate design of making the
Democratic Presidential ticket carry the
load through for his own personal advan
tage no matter bow much harm it might,
do to General Hancock’s vole.
Tammany’s Lament.—fhc Tammany
Democracy have issued an address to tlieir
brethren throughout the country, la
menting the defeat of Gen. Hancock as ar
great natioual calamity, and attributing
it to fraud, the colonization of repeaters
and the intimidation of laboring -men.
In support of this they ask that tbe vote
of New York city be scrutinized aud com
pared with the vote of 1870, when tlie
Democrats cast 112,530 ballois and the-
Republicans 58,561. In 1880 tho Demo
crats cast 123,102 and the Republicans
81,720, showing a Republican iucreaso of
23,105, and a Democratic increase of 10,-
572. The independent press in New
York city is assailed and made partly re
sponsible for the disaster. The address
also declares that the nomination of Mr.
Grace did not lessen Hancock’s vote.
An amendment was offered that Hancock’s
defeat waa due to mismanagement and
bickering of the Democratic leaders in
Kings county and New York city. After
| heated discussion, in which a
j member called on “Ross” Keliy to re-
as a sign, the amendment was rejected and tbe
| address adopted.
