Rogers Alberton, colored, of Cum

death in Feruaudinu on Sunday
morning last, on this wise: Ar he
sailed up to a wharf in Fernandinu,
his boat struck the wharf and set in
motion a piece of scantling thnt was
resting on a skid just above him, and
which, sliding down, struck the poor
fellow on tho neck and killed him in
stantly. ’His son, who was in the
boat with him nud saw him fall iut»
the water, reached down and raised
him up, but seeing life extiuct, becam
frightened and let go his hold, aud
the body sank to bottom. His body
was afterwards secured. Rogers is
said to have been n verv faithful la
borer nod his death is mourned by all
the good citizens of the Island, white
and colored.

“Sugar made out of old shirts, che

The process is simple enough: the
rags nre first treated with sulphuric
ucid and transformed into dextrin.—
This product, after being cleared and
whitenened by lime, is subjected to
second hath of Bulphuric acid more
strongly concentrated than the first.
This transforms it into glucose; nud it
enters thereafter into tlm composition
of jellies, confectioneries aud table
sugar.

BUSY NEW YORK.
New York, Sept 15,1882.
We wish,, M£ Editor, you opold
tjoarn,in the moaui
This is a beautiful city with a popula
tion of about 1,000, situated on Moun
tain creek about sixteen miles from
Atlanta. The citizens display much
taste in the erection of cottages aud
public buildings, and are noted for
their energy and thrift They have
two academies, many schools, six
churches, grists mills, floor mills, saw
mills, cotton gins, a large distillery
and a quarry are in operation
Most of the houses are Luilt of
stone or brick.
About a mile distant is the rock or
Stone mountain, which is one of tbe
grandest and most interesting feat
ures in tbe State. A few days since,
in company with a party from South
Georgia, we visited this curiostiy.—
Two-thirds of our party remaining at
its base, only one lady and two gen
tlemen succeeded in reaching its sum
mit, where the view is indescribably
grand—eighteen hundred aud sixty-
eight feet above tbe level of the sea.
Atlanta, sixteen miles off, is distinctly
seen with the naked eye. A little
more than half way up, the remains
of a wall or stone fence is to be seen
No one knows by whom built, but it
is tbe belief of some that after DeSo-
to’s men were defeated by the Indi
ans, they sought refuge by retreating
to this mountain and building this
wall as breastworks. Upon its top
to-day are found pieces of pottery,
but the most wonderful feature of the
moontaiu is a strata of quartz from
one-balf to two inches in width, ex
tending through tbe whole side of the
mountain, which causes much thought
to geologists. On one side this great
curiosity is six hundred feet perpen
dicularly.
The storm of last Sabbath raged
most furiously on its top. Trees were
struck by lightning and several blown
down. Unless one visits and sees for
himself, it is hard to realize how trees
can grow on a stone mountain. By
actnnl measurement the mountain is
just seven miles around. In ante
bellniu days the owner of this moun
tain had a tower of rock built upou
the highest point. This tower was
seventy-five feet high. At the hnse
the grnnd «old hotel remains. It is
four stories high, with its chimneys
six to eight feet in diameter, and .the
feuce is a solid brick wall. The curb
of the well is all of rock. This house
now bus but one small family as occu
pants. The mountain bus changed
bands, its owner, wbo bought it for
$1,000, selling it for $40,000. The
supply of rock is inexhaustible and
would build more than ten thousand
cities the size of Savannah. The last
company who bought it have built a
railroad from fbe State Road, and are
blasting rock which, when shipped,
meets with ready sale.
Thu chestnut and chinquapin crop
is quite abundant and old as well as
young folks enjoy the fan of gather
ing them. Corn and cotton have
been much injured by the wind and
storm of lost Sabbath. The latter
traveled at the rate of forty-five miles
per hour. In old Gwinnett, the ad
joining county, the damage has been
much greater, and aDless she does
better next year, she will lose her rep
utation as the banner corn county of
tbe State. B.— W.—

The Macon Telegraph says: “It

Adam felt when he galloped off into

Bro$dwfty£ New Yojtk. We
your eyes would begin to ache by this
time if yon tried to watch the ever
changing kaleidoscope before ns. We
won’t pretend to tell of the thousands
and thousands of people on foot, of
the hundreds upon hundreds of ve
hicles of every description to be seen.
White Broadway coaches, street cars,
hacks, private •carriages and drays,'
loaded with every imaginable article.
Everybody seems to befin a burry. Wo
would like to put a quantity of yonr
townspeople, who never move out of
a snail’s pace, here and see if the en
ergy manifested could penetrate them.
Most every one seems well dressed
and contented, but you know “every
heart knoweth its own bitterness," so
perhaps all are not so happy as ap
pearances indicate.
Tbe styles of ladies’ dresses ore
something wonderful. On the oppo
site side of the street conies a lady
dressed all in black with orange col
ored kid gloves, who carries a bright
red parasol. Green, bine, yellow, red
and all other colors of tbe rainbow,
and many that cannot be found in it,
are being worn in ladies’ suits and
nearly every ladies’ head is surmount
ed by a large bat, literally covered
with ostrich plumes. We can easily
imagine you say, O, dear! at some of
them. Black suits nre also very much
worn.
It does one good to see tbe delicious
fruits for sale, and eat the luscious
steaks and other good things.
We think any one in search of
health had better take a*trip to New
York, especially if Brunswick is the
starting poiDt. It certainly is a suffi
cient and radical change.

EXTRACT FROM SPEECH OK MR.
STEPHENS AT MACON. O A
“How are we to compete with this
centralizing party,, now organized in
our State? I tell yon, only by organ
ization, my friends, Democrats, wher
ever yon may be! [Greatapplause.]
Our situation now in the South is
very mnch like that of the states of
Greece. As long as the Grecian
states stood shoulder to shoulder, all
organized, all acting together, ten
thousand at Marathon stood firm to
more than one hundred thousand
Medes aud Persians. And afterwards,
when they remained firm and shoul
der to shoulder, when Xerxes came
with his millions, Greece standing
firm, all together, repelled his hosts
and drove them over the Hellespont.
[Applause.] Did it last? How did
fortunes turn? Before Alexander’s
conquest of the East, Philip, his fath
er, made no inroad, as his predecessor
had done, in Greece, but suddenly
resolved to divide ond conquer. How
then goes that party at the North,
who nud seen the prosperity of this
country. The Democratic party
standing together, from one extent of
the country to the other, never could
bo moved in changing the govern
ment—in transforming it into u mon
archy. They came insidiously; the
present administration at Washing
ton divided and conquered. How did
Philip divide? It was by temptation
iu Greece to get office. It was by
grand ullurements that he held out.
It was then that tbe corrupt taint got
into Greece. It was then that all tlie
powerful eloquence of Demosthenes
could not arouse tbe Greeks. The
tempter came, they were corrupted,
and tbe libei ties of Greece succumbed
to tho arts of Philip. My country
men, Georgians, if yon permit your
selves to be divided now on these
questions, if you permit men c-mute-
iinnced by you, who come iu by uunli-
itou, or any other device, and join the
leaders of this centralizing party, a
corrupt people will carry yonr elec
tions, and the duys of your liliei'ly
will be numbered with those
Greece. [Applause.]
