The flood which is just receding haa in flicted loss or life and great damnge to pro perty in a large area of country. When ever streams and rivers rise so suddenly, there must of course be fatal casualties. These can be lessened by an immediate re treat from the approaching waters. Grcwin" crops must always lie expected to suffer. Some compensation for this loss follows in the deposit of fertilizing sedi ment. Houses for habitation or the storage of valuable goods should be built above the high water mark of previous freshets. Particular attention should be paid to this in the construction of dams, mills and railroad bridges. We shall be visited by higher floods in the future than in tho past. There may not be a greater rainfall, but rivers and crooks will show a more rapid and greater rise. As the country is cleared the area of water sheds is largely increased, and day by day tho channels of the smaller and larger \va ter courses are being tilled up. At this point the late flood registered above that of 1840, but one who witnessed and marked both, assures us that there was not a greater volume of water. The next to come will he higher and more destructive, All railroad managers should give con stant attention to the gradual rais ing of road bods subject to over flow, and to the elevation and strengthening of bridges and the ap proaches to them. These precautions may avoid great disasters to life and property and will aid to keep open the channels of trado and travel. Fresldent Uvlncston-a Card. We publish elsewhere a card from Presi dent Ltvington of the State Agricultural Society that aimaks for itself. Wo cannot see, under the resolution quoted by him, any authority for hla committee to conclude an arrangement whoreby tho State fair could be permanently located anywhere, Besides, the extract .furnishes only the Sec- retary's entry and not the original rcsolu tion. Mr. Nisbet, the Vice-President, states that tho committee waa to report back the reanlt of their labors, and certainly thia is the usual conrao with snch commit tees. The TEi.roUArn's comments, to which reference is mads, were based upon Presi dent Livingston's remarks in Atlanta, as printed In the Constitution, snd which he ha* not corrected. That report makes him say that he would for fifty thousand dollars dote tho contract with Atlanta in fifteen minutes. The 'Alabama.” The history of the celebrated cruiser “Al abama” is ; admirably set forth in the April Century. Three sources therein contribute to history details and conclusions that are of lasting interest to American people, viz: Cnpt. Kell, the executive officer of the Ala bama, 1*. D. Haywood, one of the ship’s crew, and Dr. John M. Browne, surgeon of the Kearsage. The narrative of the latter relates only to tho surroundings of the clos ing scene in the Alabama’s history, but the others cover her whole career? These articles were illustrated by noted artists from drawings, photographs and close descriptions and the engravings add greatly to the value of the number. Capt Kells's sketch is entirely devoid of flashy rhetoric; it reads like a ship’s log, but clear, strong, graphic and thrilling. That portion which dwells upon the conflict with the Kersage is reproduced in another part of this issue. In this triple report three facts are brought into prominence, the rough and mutinous nature of the crew Semmes commanded, the poor quality of the “Alabama’s” amu- nition and the fact that accident only sent the Alabama to the bottom in place of the Kearsage. Mr. Haywood declares that the crew were intractable and dangerous. He describes one of the ruffians and pronounces him “the best man of the port watch,” tells of mutinies and fights, and of the hatred the crew had for its commander. That Scmmcs successfully commanded such a crew for twenty-two months, and with them destroyed nearly seven million dollars worth of property, including some sixty odd ships, speaks well for his courage and tact. Hay-, wood admits that he did not admire Semmes, and belittles the achievements of his ship. Historically his sketch is. valuable chiefly for its description of and testimony con cerning the crew of the “Alabama.” While off the coast of Brazil the Alabama made a target of a prize. Says Cajft. Kell, “Many of our fuses proved defective. Up on visiting the target I found that one of the hundred-pound shells had exploded on tho quarter-deck, and I counted fifteen marks from its missiles, which justifies mo in asserting that had the hundred-pound shell which we placed in the stern-post of the Kearsage exploded, it would hare changed the result of the fight. I at once examined every fuse and cap, discarding the apparently defective, and at the same time made a thorough overhauling of the magazine, as I thought, but tho action with the Kearsage proved that our entire sup ply of powder wa3 damaged. Tho report from the Kearsage's battery was clear and Bharp, the powder burning like thin vapor, while qur gnns gave out a dull report, with thick and heavy vapor.” During the progress of tho fight with tho Kearsage, Captain Semmes who was noting the effect of his fire upon that vessel, de clared that the Alabama's shells dropped bock when they struck and fell into tho sea. The surgeon of the Kearsags says; “A hundred-pounder rifle shell entered at tho starbonrd quarter and lodged in the stern- post. Tho blow shook the ship from atom to stern. Luckily it did not oxplode; otherwise the result would have been seri ous, if not fatal. A thirty-two-pounder shell entered forward of the forward pivot port, crushing the waterways, raising tho gun carriage and lodged, but did not ex plode, else mnny of the gun’s crew would A Prohibition Game. Maine is a prohibition State which fur nishes the worst drunkards and the meanest liquor of any State in the Union. The State of Maine is also celebrated as the residence of Blaine, James G. The many and curious ways of assuaging thirst in the State of Maine have excited the interest of reading people for several years, it may be said from away back. From time to time the village constable has stum bled upon these devices, and the cute Down Easterns ever on the alert for a new inven tion. Quite recently the following para graph appeared in the columns of a journal published in Augusta, Maine: The game of “Go Bang" is having quite a boom In the city at the present time. The headquarters of the game is at one of the well known stores on the street, and several prominent legal gentlemen are deeply interested. One young man Is making a study of “Go Bang." and it is said passes many sleepless nights in meditation over ita mysteries. Several doctors are engaged in gaining knowledge of the game. No key, explanation or solution was given. It was known at once that it was not tho game glayed by Hannibal Hamlin in the corner groceries, for that is known a# seven- up, old sledge, or, as Hannibal terms it himself, after turning up a jack from the bottom of the pack, high low jack. Neither tho most venerable toper, moat ancient sucker, nor the oldest inhabitant know exactly what “Go Bang” meant. They were all agreed that it had some con nection with spirits. In a few days the explanation followed. A barrel arrived, marked “dried peas.” When rolled over, there was no rattle of dried peas, but a dull and familiar gurgle. Upon further inspec tion, the barrel was found to contain whisky, and the game of “Go Bang” is to get the “dried peas” out, without waking a policeman or attracting the otten tion of the town, constable. “Go-Bang” promises to be more popular than progres sive euchre, and it is within range that it may be introduced to Atlanta society about the fourth of July. The Kimball House soda fount may add largely to its custom by the importation of a few barrels of “dried peas.” Thero are a lot of prohibition ora tors in the immediate neighborhood who may he counted on to become Go-Bang sharps with very limited practice. The Telegraph Amircn a Oueetlon. Editors Macox Telf-oram —Gentlemen: I would be glad to get your ideas upon a subject particu larly interesting to me, and to others, doubtless, who are somewhat similarly situated. I am twenty- one years of age and in receipt of a salary of $1,000. Would you advise me to marry ? or should I wait for a better Income? Some of my friends advise me one way, some another, and I myself am much Drift of Political Thought as Reflected by tile State Press. Athens Banner-Watchman: If reports be true, Judge Estes and Brown are now en gaged in a regular circuit-swapping busi ness, to enable them to electioneer among the people, while Colonel Candler is absent in doubt. Perhaps I should sdd that I have a strong inclination to marry. What are your views upon the situation? With great respect. Very truly yours, at his post of duty. Also, that Judge Sim- The above letter speqks for itself. We withhold the writer’s name, though not re quested, to keep him from being over whelmed with correspondence. } The Teleorath’s views are clear upon the question raised. If the young man has health—and without health no marriage can under any circumstances be desirable—if be is temperate, and if be knows of an honest, practical level-headed girl who will accept him, why then we say marry. A young couple need not fear to face life if they have health. Manhood and woman hood are made up of elements that defy difficulties, and in the difficulties that sur round them they will learn the mutual trust and dependence upon which at last happiness rests. If we consider the question of risk, it seems to us that for the young man of twenty-one drawing a thousand dollars per year, the risks of single blessedness so- called are infinitely greater than those of matrimony. A young man cannot afford to stay single, if marriage is within his power and it is within the power of many more than admit it. In point of health, in morals, in respect to his duty to God and State and in point of finance, the young married man is better off than when single, always provided he marries a true Voman. “Two can live cheaper than one,” is saying often quoted by the advocates marriage, but it is not true. Two «aa live cheaper than one does, is true in ninety- nine cases out of a hundred. The money that a young man spends during a year not his necessary expenses, hut the sum that added to what he has left at the end the year balances his income—would sup port himself and wife comfortably. THK NEXT GOVERNOR. mens is making a mountain pilgrimage, iu his frantic efforts to capture delegations to the gubernatorial convention. We have not language strong enough to condemn such conduct, and if the people do not put the brand of disapprobation on it at their party conventions, it will be a sad day for Georgia. To see the judicial ermine dragged fresh from the bench into the con taminating whirlpool of modern politics is indeed a humiliating sight, and a pitiful commentary on the degeneracy of the age. How can a people expect impartial jnstice from the bench when this officer is engaged at every idle mo ment in political movements? It matters not how upright and just a judge may be, it is natural for him to pander to influence when he consents to enter the arena of pol itics. He will naturally so shape even his judioial. acts that they will redound to strengthening his support. A judge—the arbiter of human life, liberty and property — should hold himself, while occupying that important and responsible position, far beyond the reach of the corrupt influ ences of politics. If he wants to enter the E olitical arena, let that judge fixst resign is robes of office and he then is the ruler of his own fate, only. We will never cast our ballot for any judicial officer who has mixed up justice and politics, and if it was in our power we would tear the mantle from the shoulders of the last one. This practice must be discountenanced, for it not only dishonors our courts of justice, but will eventually, if not checked, load to the bartering of justice for political sup port. Athens Banner-Watchman: There has lately been some change in the gnbera- torial race, so far as now movements on the political board are concerned. We thought at one time that the Atlanta ring would ac cept Bacon, but late events show that he is not the choice of that combination of politr ical wire-pullers. They are now throwing out Gordon as a feeler, and if the people show a readiness to swallow the bait ne will be Atlanta’s candidate, and receive the sup port and backing of the great triumvirate. The ring, however, has some doubts about Gordon’s strength, and he can be easily pulled iu again if the voters shy too much, without any committal on his part. Sim* mons’ only hope now is to snag the conven tion, and come in during the uproar that A Prospering Cotton Factory.
