All tilt* papers in the State uot in tnM't "f Mr. Stephens are severely criticized by the Stephens journals I, a- expressing their opinions as to who shall bo Georgia's next Govern or, claiming that we should have wait ed until after the nomination. Being one of that number we rise to ex plain. In doing so, we ask onr es- Itjeiiiud contemporaries, when will the proper time come for us to speak? There is but one party in Georgia and that is the Democratic party—we mean but oue that can elect a Gov ernor. The primary election then, or nomination rather, is the only oue in which any are interested, for the nom inee is virtually Governor. We suy, we know of no time more appropriate then than right now to discuss candi dates. We have nothing to say against any of tin- numerous candi dates now before the people. We will cheerfully support any one of them that may be nominated, but theu that does uot make them our choice. KNSI I, A OK. Visitors to th< last fall will reme.i of saving green f. ■ t ii stock.

Mabietta, Juue 12,1882. Mr. Editor: We had on yesterday onr first warm day, but rained in the evening' and to-day is as pleasant as could be desired. The wheat is all harvested, aud a fine crop produced— the best, they say, in twenty years.— There are somo complaints abont the stand of cotton, but all 1 have seen is as early as usual, aud corn never looked finor. Tim oats have rusted to some extent, but so many were sown they will be abundant. We hear the whistle of the Atlanta and Horae Railroad every day, and it is thought that in less thau ninety days the trains will be runuing through from Brunswick to Rome.— Surely no railroad in Georgia has been built with such rapidity, and I think the development to follow will be even more rapid. If no great na tional calamities befall us, I think the progress of our State for the next twenty years will be marvelous, and if I were to tell you what I think about Brunswick you would not be lieve me any more than you did when I published in your paper {before it was sold) that the M. A B. Ruiltoad was worth five millions of dollars. I was opposed to the sale, but now. un der the energetic development of the com pony .who have it, eVt-n a greater beuofit may accrue to the State than if she had kept it. i was much inter ested in the accounts of your Fair, and hope it has taught yon a lesson, Brunswick will uo more he ready for the freight and passengers that will Come pouring into her this winter than she was to accommodate the at tendants at the Fair. With the prop er energy put forth, Brunswick cun Im made to progress morn in the next twenty years than any city in the South or North has ever progressed in the same length of time. More over, J believe this energy will be put forth, because it will pay better than at tiny other place ou the globe.

Stanton, New Mexico, June 6,1882. Mr. Editor: It was an unexpected transfer from the delightful climate of our city by the sea to an altitude of over eight thousand feet, so many miles away from my pleasant home among the grand old trees. I am sit ting by a fire of stunted and crooked wood, which is a comfort in this cold mountain air. This fuel is brought in for sale, packed on tho back of the queer, gentle, patient little animal called the burro, value $15 for n prime oue. I am writing to you in a com fortable house built of mud, roof and all, in the walls of which very small mice in great numbers have taken up their abode—not at ufl annoying, ou- ly when they are in a frolic in the canvas that covers the ceiling. I inn greatly interested in the towns or communities of the prairie dogs.— They are first seen in vVest Kansas, and all through this section. Hera they live in vast numbers. A short walk will place me in ouo of tb<‘ir settlements. The ground tn every di rection is covered with their hills, on the top of which is the ontrnnee to I their dwellings, fur beneath the snr- j face of the ground. They look very I odd and very saucy, barking at and i watching you intently until within a | few feet; wln-ii they disappear, head- 'first, like ^ flash. T have seen no 1 snakes, but quantities ot' horned frogs and lizzards; no mosquitoes or ileus, ! and hilt fe v flies. ! But what i happy hunting ground ' this would prove for some of my I sporting friends in Brunswick! Only ! eight miles from my door is the grand old Cnpitan mountain. In the clear atmosphere one would fancy that a half-hour’s walk would bring you to its base. It is accessible on foot or mule, with a top surface in some parts five miles wide, covered- with timber of smali growth, literally tilled in its different localities with the cinnamon, grizzly and black bear, Mexican lion, wild eats, blank and whits.-tailed deer, wolves, turkeys in droves of fifty to a hundred, mule eared rabbits and smaller game without limit. I ean al most fancy my friend, Dr. Blain, with j 0 f t) 1(! country when he had hoi his dogs ami gun, with oue of tho | t jio old fellow’s tongue. afraid of our hair being removed without our consent, but thought it better to be on the safe side. They say we become accustomed to any thing. My first night on n blanket, some twenty-five miles from any hab Ration, was uot with a perfect feeling of security, but I was soon content with my Gipsey life, and really en joyed it, but as I neared the Indian country I anticipated and looked for the red-skin on every hill-top. We would have stood a poor chance, with only threo revolvers, and one of them without cartridges. The drives in this vicinity are sim ply grand. The roads, the finest I ever saw, natural or worked, wind in and through the mountains, the views constantly changing. Although anx ious to be again with my family, I shall leave Fort Stanton with sincere regret. My coming here with letters from a high army official in Washing ton to the cotmuauder of this post placed mo immediately in social in tercourse with the officers and ladies of the garrison, and the courtesy and kindness extended has made my SO' journ of a month here most agreeable. Brunswick has her fish stories, but I will give you a bear story. A Mex ican has been at work for me the past few days, fearfully scarred nml badly crippled. I yesterday obtained from, him bis account of au old cinnamon bear on Capitan mountain. Ho was huutiug there with a companion when suddenly the old follow came upon them. They discharged their gnus, but oiily wounded him, when lie attacked this man. His first stroke tore open his face from just below the eye to his jaw-boue open into his month; his next wound was the half of his scalp torn oft', and his chin split open, and his thighs and lower limbs fearfully torn. He fell, with tho bear over him, and, seeing his opportunity, grasped the bear’s tougue, which so choked and bewil dered the animal that his companion plucked up his courage and killed the boar with his knife. He was brought to this post to die, but a Mexican is hard to kill, so lie lives, bnt will prob ably keep clear of Capitan. My vouchers for this bear engagement ire the animal’s skin and the man's fearful sears. I was not in this part of Prof. G. J.

Some papers in tho State are even now canvassing against Mr. Stephens as though liu were a candidate of uu antagonistic party, and 1 had hoped that Glynn, with her few votes, would have kept out of the mess. It is the opinion of the .sound est thinking men ot this section that if Mr. Stephens is nominated the Democratic party will bo more solid than ever, and his election notiljl make the State mote prominent—es pecially in the Gn at West, where he is exceedingly popular—thau any man vve could possibly elect. If lie is uot nominated, 1 believe there will be the warmest contest between Demo crats wo have ever had in Georgia.— That is the reason I do uot wish to see the great interest of Brunswick mixed up iu polities, and taking sides with parties, which uiay effect untold injury. The lust Gubernatorial con vention broke up in a row, and this excitement beforehand about candi dates is likely to produce the same re sults.

PoBTLASJL), June 10— The average Republican majority of the State is 1,800? M. C. George, for Congress, will have about 3,000 majority in the i trusty old frontiorinon for a guide, j i who are as gonial and companionable ! as himself, though more roughly set I and mannered, most formidable in | I appearance, as they are in truth armed to the teeth, and know full well just how to use their weapons. I think a night’s camp on this grand old Capitan mountain, with a two day’s hunt, would make tho Doctor quit his practice and resign his office I of Port, Physician, and make his home, at least for,a time, in New Mexico. Phis post, said to bo the most beau tiful in the country, surrounded us it is by immense hills and ranges of magnificent mountains, with the clear, cold water of the pretty river Bonita meandering around it, shining in the constant sunlight. It only rains here from July to October, then iu show ers. Blanca mouutaiu, eight thou sand feet above, with its suow-capped peaks glittering, aud its canons and ravines filled with snow and ice to tho depth of over one hundred feet, feeds I entirely tho Bonita river, which is, iu | truth, ice water. My friend Haywood would have no chance here. The! river, at this season, is running with i great force. The Indians on this reservation are in rather a demoralized stato, and ru mors of their starting off on the war- path are numerous, but, as I intend i leaving in a few days, I hope to bo out of the country before they leave [ the reservation. | A few days since, in company with ! two officers of the garrison, I was up on the slope of Blanca mountain, I.some fifteen miles drive, in an ambu lance, with four of the finest mules I j ever saw. An old hunter aud trap per. with his dogs, came up to us.— We offered the old fellow part of onr lunch and a drink of good whiskey. Ho partook moderately of the first and freely of tlie latter. We werh greatly entertained by the events he rclatod of his life amoug these snow- clad mountains, having killed forty- ono bears this year, and over two hundred and twenty deer, not to say anything of wild-cats, wolves, Mexi can lions, otc., in lesser numbers. He wanted to send mo to the post a bear and lion skin which ho has cur£d in his cabiu, but my small trunk and heavy coat would not allow me to a cept. Not much respect for law here. ' Within two weeks a negro was bui The Griffin Daily New in a very timely article on the proper handling of the fruit crop of Georgia, says: "I; is now apparent that tho entire peach crop of Georgia cannot be marketed profitably- Thousands of bushels have been sold at tho most profitable figures and very much more will bo sold. As the carrying facilities are improved year after year, and new and ampler markets are reached at cheaper rates, a longer and larger pro portion of the fruit can be retailed from the fruit stands. While there U a glut of Georgia peaches in one mar ket there are scores of other markets in which they would bring fancy prj. ces if they could only be had. Wo shall, therefore, continue to insist the railroads and carrying companies giving better facilities, and if vve cat, only see as much accomplished next year as has been done this year, the problem of transporting fruit will have been nearly solved. In th, ; mean time it is important that the present crop shall be fully utilized If it cannot bo marketed as green fruit, it should bo canned or dried. Iu <’ ther of these shapes it will command world-wide markets and good prices As dried fruit or canned, it can bo shipped at the lowest freight rates, and if there is a glut in tho market, can be stored until the glut is over. Last year, a remarkably poor frutt year, over $10,000 of, good money went into Griffin alone for dried fruit That plucky little city should get no less than $100,000 for dried peaches this year. Georgia is less than four hundred miles from the centre of pop ulation of the country, and it is folk to say that, in oue shape or other, w! cannot market profitably our frith crop. California is over 3,000 tnilm- from the centre of population, and yet she realizes more from her fruit crop than she does from her wheat.” Talmage concludes a recent sermon in tho following dramatic style: “I see before me a great theatre. It is the theafi’" of the Judgment scene—the last. day. For stage—1.„ rocking earth. Enter lords, duke- princes, clowns, beggars. No sword no tinsol, no crown. For footlights tho kindling flames of a world. Fu; orchestra—the trumpets that wak- the dead. For galleries— the clouds with angel spectators. Forcurtain- tbe heavens rolled together as a scroll For applauso tho clapping hands of I the sea. For tragedy —tlie doom of the destroyed. For farce—those the tried to serve God and serve sin ,i; the same time. For the last scene the fifth act—the tramp of nations t receive their doom - some to the rigid | and some to tho left.” GLYNN SHERIFF SALE- Flr*t Tuc*«tlay in July. 1882.
