The use of electricity as a railway motor is still in tho experimental stage. The Berlin electric railway, it appears, is not uu entire success.— There is some dnuger attending the transmission of the electric current through the roils. A horse, while crossing the line, striking it with his shoe, is liable to give tho dead animal man some business right away. Time will doubtless bring such improve ments as will ninke the system prac ticable. AN EXPERIMENT. The New York Times (Republican), in order to ascertain the true politic al status, has sent out letters to edit ors of representative papers in the South, requesting them to answer the following questions: (1) . Is the policy of the Democrat ic party managers in harmony with the general sentiment of the people of your district ? If that policy ex cites any dissatisfaction,'is it chiefly directed against principles or persons sustained by party leaders ? (2) . How do your people regard the administration of President Ar thur? (3) . Is there in your neighborhood any decided expression of opinion in regard to the tariff? If so, what is its extent and nature V Fifty answers received lead the Times, Republican though it be, to the very strong and emphatic conclu sions that the mosses still look to the Democracy as upholding their best interests, material and political; that they will forget all local differences in defending party principles; that the local issues which exist in several States will be lost sight of in consid ering national issues; that President Arthur's administration is looked up on ns narrow and pnrtisuu; tlmtnoth iug good can come to the South from it; that bis appointments are consid ered acts of hostility; that the tiiritf is not generally understood, and not much iuterest is taken in it by the musses. Some guarded coniiuoudtt- tions of Arthur's administration come from the Mississippi valley, and these the Tunee explains as due entirely to the levee proclamation. HON. A. « >. KAO* >N. Glynn ims spoken upon the ques tion of candidates for Governor. We send a strong delegation of delegates and alternates who have a candidate. They Mill vote for Hon. A. O. Bacon, and in doing so will represent the earnest wish of our people, who rec ognize in him a devoted friend of ev ery enterprise tending to the devel opment of the resources of our great State. We want, uud we believe the mass es of the people of Georgia want, a thoruugb, practical, business admin istration of affairs, and, without dis- puiagemeut of any man who 1ms been mentioned in this connection, believe that Major Bacon, by past experience, by thorough acquaintance with login hit ion for the past ton years, by bis tborollgb ami deep interest in and knowledge of the two important quos tious of the hour—-the utmost duvel opment of our material resources and the education of the masses—is pre eminently the man for the times and for tho place. There are many other counties along our lines of road and on our coast whose people agree with tho people of our county, ami who re member that this section of the State has always found Mujor Bacon an earnest uud intelligent champion of our material interests, mid we predict that this recollection will find earnest voice in the convention. — ON A IIOO.M.

A recent number of the Atlanta Constitution contains an interview with a native Hungarian in that city | who is now making an experiment in silk growing, with great and gratify ing success* In his .native land he was a silk raiser by profession, and is therefore acquainted with the various details of the business. Early in April he obtained 5,000 eggs of tbe silk worm, being encouraged to do so by tbe opinion that the climato was well adapted to the business, and he now has about the same number of thriv ing worms, pursuing tbeir natural vo cation of spinning silk with untiring energy. The gentleman declares his intention of removing a short dis tance from Atlanta and there . engag ing in silk raising as a business, de claring bis ability to eusily net $2,500 in ten weeks, that being the time elapsing between the hatching of the eggs and the deposit of a fresh sup ply by the butterfly, the last form as sumed by the silk worm. Tbe ex periment has beon tried by quite a number of persons in Atlanta, all of whom express tbeir entire satisfac tion witti and liking for tbe business. The experimenters give it as their opinion that the leaves of the ossge orange is as good, if not better, for the food id the worms than the mul berry, winch has always been consid ered as almost the only food of the little workers. Now for the practical part of this article. Why can’t silk be raised in Glyuti an*F*iijoii)iug counties? Oar climate is more salubrious, and, wc slioijki think, even better adapted to the thriving of the worm than Atlan ta and North Georgia, arid both tho mulberry and the usage orange are known to thrive well in this section. One, and the principal beauty to the business, outside of tbe large profits, is the fact that it can be just as well carried on by women and children as by men, as it requires no hard work, but rather a watchful and maternal care. There is in tbe city of Phila delphia the “Women’s Silk Growing Association of tbe United States,” or ganized with a view to encouraging this business among women, as an easier avocation for tliein than man;, of the occupations now followed by them This socity will furnish pain phlet- and other information to all desirous of engaging in the silt cul ture. Again we ask, will not some one in this section give this enter prise a trial V But little outlay is re quired, and the returns are certainly large enough to tempt some one in position to give it n trial.

M. Qtud, in Detroit Free Press. The negro, os the Georgia people say, has become unreliable in many districts and a nuisance in others.—, Where one works twenty loaf their time away around the towns. Where one is honest fifty are thieves and li ars. Let a planter buy hogs on Mon day and by Saturday he will have lost the greater number. Negroes in his employ, well fed and well paid, will have slaughtered them. Let him buy a blooded calf, and be is safe no long er than a pair of eyes are watching him. A farmer who keeps fowls must hire someone to watch them, and it must be some one besides a negro.— Set a dozen negroes at work on n farm without a boss, and in un hour ten of them will be lying in the fence corners. If there is a call for a po litical meeting the farm is deserted. They belong to orders, lodges, socie ties, churches, etc., and things are so mauuged that be must have nearly every night out and about two holi days per week. A shower of rain in the morning uses him up for all day, and if there is no other excuse be has cramps or dizziness. Such are the complaints that Georgians make. A good white workman, such as are em ployed in tho North, will do more work in one day than the average ne gro will accomplish in three. The negro demands the same pay as white farm laborers receive in tbe North. His money is gone within half a day after lie receives lt.jiuij generally |or luxuries which his employer cannot afford. He then begins a new month —a siege against time. The North would not bear hall us much from him as tho South does. Let a thou- saud of them stand on the streets of Detroit day after day, as they do in Atlanta, Macon, Montgomery and oth er places, guffawing, disputing and quarreling, and there would soon be a call for a new wing at the work house.

Hill Arp on Old Ai;-■ anxl Sweetne«n. Ago knocks the pootry out of a man just like marriage knocks the music and romance out of a woman. She quits playin' the piano in about two 1 years and takes to the sewing ma- j chine. She quits singin and goes to I eiuckiu and scrutuhin around. I dont | like that. Tt always makes me sad to see an anxious, careworn mother, and 1 it would seem like enough to scare off her own girls horn marrvin, but somehow it dont. The longer a man can keep up his boyish feelings and hilarity and pluv hoss with his little boys, and the longor a woman can laugh and frolic and picnic and romp with her children the better for ’em. When Mrs. Arp condescends to put on her long-eared sunbonnet and go with me and the children to the dew berry patch, I am happy, ticks or no ticks. That’s nn evont, that is. Dew berries are ripe now, and we eat them with sugar and shore enough cream, and make pips out of em, and if sugar was cheap or easy to get we would all bo Imppy. No family of size and ap petite like miue ought to go through tbe berry season without a barrel, for there are blm-Kberries and huckleber ries and rusberries and cherries for tarts, and peaches and apples for dumplings and everything for jelly and preserves, and a dollar’s worth of sugar at a time is jnstau aggravation. Mrs. Arp said yesterday she had “rather be stinted in anything than sugar"—“and coffee,” said I. “Well, yes,” said she, “I can't do without coffee”—“and plenty of butter," said I. “Yes, and butter,” said she—“and good flour,” said I, “and lard and nice clothes and number 2 shoes, and so on and so forth and so on, all of which ends in wanting plenty of mon ey.” Jesso.
