A Challenge to ttcnntor Brown.
The National lie publican, of Washington
City, commentingon war papers, says: ‘We
oan think of no other paper that would be
so eagerly devoured by millions as one by
ex-Oorernor Brawn, of Georgia, entitled
‘How My Militia Guarded Anderaoovile.’
The subject is an interesting one, «nd
there are millions of people who are in
dense ignorance concerning it
It strikes us that the provocation haa
been directed at the right man. Senator
Brown is familiar withthodetiils. He is cool
resourceful and master of a pen and capa
ble of good work in such a cause. By reason
of his political affiliations with both sides
at different limes his utterances will be ac
cepted by a large number of readers.
Ho owes the State of Georgia a heavy
debt and in some measure the entire South.
Opportunity is offered for the discharge of
a portion ot the obligation. The tilt be
tween Mr. Hill and Mr Blaine over Ander-
sonvillo was necessarily restricted, and vic
tory is claimed by the partisans of both
contestants.
Let Senator Brown marshal the over
whelming facts in behalf of the truth of
history, and show to the world bow th-
North waa responsible for a'l of the horrors
of Andcrsonville, and how it murdered
Wirz to cover up its own guilt.

The progress of invention is well indi
cated In the following from 1‘ittaburg:
“Chambers Miller, of Sewickly, Penusjlvn
nla, holds the theory that natural gaa is
confined in the earth in a fluid state, and
has just filed a caveat for a patent which is
destined to conduct tbia fluid to the surf ,ce
and into a receptacle for its preservation.
It this theory should prove oorreot, it will
be the greatest discovery of the age, as the
fluid brought to the eurtaoe end confined at
a preasuro of say COO pounds to tlio square
inch, can be ntilized to an inconceivable
extent te fuel. A locomotive, for instance,
with a few gallons of tho fluid, would have
a supply of fuol sufficient to run it from
Pittsburg to Chicago, and an ocean eteamer
would require only a few bamU to make
the trip to Europe. A test of the theory
will in ell probability be made In a day or
•-two,"
Parmer Wailley's Kahlblv.
In Bnother column, representatives of
ths Telegraph have set forth maDy of the
interesting details connected with the
opening of the Georgia State Fair. Thes <
will be elaborated from day to day. It ia
pleusant to notice that the festival of our
farmer firends has been opened nnfle-r
most auspicious circumstances.
The agricultural feature is the beet and
most complete of the many that we have
witnessed.
Without intending the slightest dispar
agement of the many interesting exhibits
of this character by dubs and individuals,
it afford* us pleasure to call attention to
the exhibits of Farmer Wadley, and the
contributions of his friends and neighbors.
It is a study in itself to see a Georgia
farm represented is every detail, from tbe
bales cf cotton to tbe plates of butter, so
arranged os to make a perfect picture of
oomlort and thrift.
Not the leaat interesting features are tbe
frescoes. The author of much of the
charming picture, faithful old Jenny, the
male that started the plow after the war,
the bundle of fodder, yet firm and sweet
after nineteen years; the old revolutionary
powder gourd, colored by age like a meer
schaum pipe, and the chicken hawk perched
upon a stack-pole to warn the man who
makes that he must be watchful if he keeps.
Despite an unfavorable season for the
full fruition ot the farmer's labor, this ex
hibit is in all respects a credit and honor
to the State of Georgia, It is daub'fill it
any State from tbe same area of territory
could gather such a varied assortment of
everything to establish the fact that farm
ing pays to the man who guides the plow
with energy and industry, and to the house
wife whose skill and taste cun utilize all
the produetious of the farm.
The fame of this exhibit will insure
crowds of visitors and the youngest and
oldest will find much to excite interest and
admiration.
Stakes for Georgia Colls.
The racing programme of our agricul
tural friends is an evidence in itself that
they huve catered to a popular taste.
Everybody likes fine horses, and all peo
ple who are frank enough to confess it, are
fond of witnessing horse races.
The breeding and raising of horses is jus
tified in a desire to improve this noble
animal. The powers of a blooded horse
can best be tried and exhibited in contests
that demand endurance, pluck and speed.
It is claimed that the breeding of race
horses in England increased the height of
horses one inch within twenty years.
The breeding ot blooded horses has be
come one of the great and profitable
branches of agricultural life in this country
But few men who have ruoing stables breed
their own oolte. They purchase them from
men who make a business of it, and often
pay very high prices for untried colts.
Yearlings are sold annually at prices rang
ing from hundreds to thousands of dollars.
The Dwyer Brothers paid thirty thousand
dollars for one filly, aud General Jackson
has just put down twenty thousand doiluts
for Iroquois. The gentlemen who hare
uharge of our Agricultural Sooiety can slim
ulate this business in our State in a very
simple but effective way.
In addition to the regular racing pro
grammes at the annuul fairs, let stakes be
opened for two and three old colt'
Tiiehe nro in tbe world 34,000 newspa
pers, the issues of whiob, during a year,
amount to 092,000,000; 19,000 papers ap
pear in Europe, 12,000 in North America,
765 in Asia, and GOO in South America; the
English language claims 1G.G00; the Ger
man, 7,800; The French, 3,850; and tbe
Spanish, 1,000.
Invention has given ns the reaper and
mower, the patent planter and the cotton
chopper, and the steam plough. If the
cotton picker should prove a sucoess,
Coffee's importance, save ss a voter, will
cease.
Macon is again illustrating the fact that
ahe is the centre of wealth, intelligence and
population, and that ahe ia tbe only city
which can snpport tbe State fair.

William bteinway, of New York. It bos

Mrs. Folsom and the bachelor effects of the
President are there, waiting for thl paper-

with mhny of tbe books which he had in
his Buffalo office. Though open grates are
in every room, it has been considered ad
visable to pnt in a furnace, which will heat
the whole house. The President would be
glad to take horseback exercise, but such a
horse as wonld be able to carry him would
have too greatagirth for his abort legs, and
the effort to ait on sach an animal wonld be
altogether too fatiguing. During his visit
to “lied Top" be has been in the habit
of walking over the grounds briskly for
half on hour and baa found the exercise
beneficial. It is among the possibilities
that hi will walk to and from the country

of his forthcoming m.aeage to Congress at

President has been told that during Presi

White lli use was furnished with a piano

Cleveland, in accepting bridal gifts, haa
taken care that none of them enter into the

utilised in the comitry house at ‘Ked Top.'
Tbe only convenience tbe house will not

has a brood more or two will be attracted
at onoe. The farmer who |has not will be
apt to purchase soma after seeing the am*

that farmers will become racing men, bnt
they will be enoouraged in thia way to ex
periment with the breeding of blood
