by the Sad Case of
By reference to *
columns of. the proceedings of a
of inquiry, it will he seen that yester
day Mr. A. S. Monghon,
and killed his old colored
foreman, Charles Raymond, on Tues
day last, was adjudged a demented in
ebriate, and a fit snbject for the lunatic
asylum. Such proceeding is authoris
ed by law, and the conclusion arrived
at by the jury is doubtless justified by
the facts in the ca e; bnt it is avery un
fortunate thing for the country, and for
this community in particular, that the
terrible crime committed by this young
man on Tuesday, should, by force of
circumstances, have to be palliated by
having him adjudged non compos
mentis and sent to the asylum for the
insane.
Let ns not be misunderstood here,
and above all, let not the friends of
Mr. Mouglioo think that we are dis
senting from the jury of twelve good
citizens who have declared him to be
insane and hence not amenable to the
law for his actions—even though s fel
low-man has been slain. We believe
the jury did right; that it acted in ac
cordance with law and human justice;
but there is a large clasa of citizens
who will view it in an entirely different
light. By snch as these it will be said
that because the victim of this unfor
tunate young man was a poor colored
man, this insanity dodge has been token
to shield his murderer from justice un
der the law. The case will also be
mado to serve the purposes of the Re
publican press of the North, and will
be paraded as an instance of Southern
lawlessness.
Hence wo say it is very unfortunate
that Mr. Monghon should have to be
confined as a lunatic immediately af
ter killing this old colored man. Many
other reasons might bo given in sup
port of this view of the unpleasant sub
ject under consideration, but, at the
risk of boing misunderstood, wc will
have to let thoso hastily laid down
above suffice.
The plea of insanity by murderers
is becoming too common in the country,
and this case of Dolly Moughon will,
we fear, have a tendency to stimulate,
rather than to check, this great and
growing cril, which cannot be loo
closely witched. Wo have felt it our
doty to speak of it here, and to warn the
young men of the country of the
danger of committing crimo and trust
ing to the plea of insanity as a sure
means of escape from justice.
Snlky Grant.
Imperial Ulysses has not yet recov
ered from tho fit of sulks that dates
from his defeat at the Chicago conven
tion last summer, and from what wc
gather from a Washington correspond
ent it seems that he is carrying nis
ugliness into everything. When he
was complimented, just before the ad
journment for the holidays, by tho two
Houses of Congress suspending their
business for tho purpose of paying re-
spccta to him, comment was made on
the fact that two or three prominent
Republicans in tho Senate and the
Houso of Representatives were con
spicuously absent on that occasion.
Among those most prominently men
tioned in this connection was Senator
Blaine. It is said that the reason why
Mr. Blaine neglected to pay his re
spects to General Grant in the Senate
chambor was that only a few days ago,
when in New York, General Grant
had declined to see him when he calf-
cd and sent in his card. Mr. Blaine,
it is said, was also informed that Gen
eral Grant had said he would never
speak to him again.. Friends of
General Grant also say that he is
incensed against Gen. Sheridan on ac
count of the strictures of the latter on
the proposition to crest General Grant
Captain General. In fact it is current
rumor that General Grant is angry
with every one who did not favor his
renomination at Chicago last summer,
and carries his resentment solar as to
refuse to hold any personal intercourse
with any of them.
Mr. Garfield and the Stalwarts.
According to the Washington corres
pondent of the Baltimore Sun, specu
lation in political circles is already
quite rife as to the probable attitude of
the stalwart wing of the Republican
party toward the new administration.
At tho understanding arrived at be
tween tho particular friends of General
Grant and General Garfield in the early
part of this fall, it was considered set
tled that his administration would re
ceive their hearty support. But there
are rumors as to Geoenl Garfield’s in
tentions, both in regard to policy and
patronage, which would seem to indi
cate a possibility that after all bis ad
ministration may not be in more favor
with the stalwarts, or a large portion
of the stalwarts, than has been the ad
ministration of Hr. Hayes. But if this
should be so the country perhaps will
not be any worse off.
Col. William M. Wadlkt, Presi
dent of the Georgia Central Railroad,
and Dr. E. A. Flewollen left Macon
Monday evening, says tho Herald, for
Opelika, Abu, on business appertaining
to tho Savannah and Memphis Rail
road, which the Central has recently
purchased, paying $700,000, we are in
formed. The rond at present, is about
sixty-three miles in length, running
from Opelika to Good water in a north
westerly direction. The coarse of the
road lies through a magnificent conn-
try, coal and iron fields, and will be a
valuable adjunct to the Central Road.
If the road is extended, it wiU possibly
strike the Selma, Rome and Dalton
road at Talladega. Dr. E. A Flewel-
len has been offered tho Presidency of
tho Savannah-and Memphis road.
The beer manufactured in the Unit*
od States is equal to one hundred and
ten drinks a year for eveiy man, wo
man and child. The people who drink
are obliged to consume the share that
belongs to the temperance people and

fact that they have time to do little
else. The revenue to the Government
is $11/100^000 a year.
press of the North
bo greatly shocked when the
statistics came ont, and it
that the South was moving
inch mors rapidly in popula
tion, if not in wealth, than the North,
and a fearful howl went np from the
stalwarts about a staffed census, as
they called it, and it was declared that
as soon as Congress met an investiga
tion of the “census frauds in the South”
should bo made. The more census
statistics are pnblisncd, however, the
more shocks the Republicans receive,
and now the growth and prosperity of
the Southern States has been so well
established by figures so indisputable
that the investigation babble has ex
ploded.
Writing upon this snbject; the New
Orleans Democrat says that “the fig
ures published relative to the percent
age of increase of the whites and ne
groes kill soother Republican issue,
since they prove that the negro has
been doing unexceptionslly well in the
past decade; that he has increased and
prospered under Democratic role CTen
more rapidly than the white race, and
that no country on tho globe can show
a population increasing as rapidly as
the negroes of the Southern States.
Figures on this point are available
from only fourteen States, six South
ern and eight Northern ones. These
statistics show that the negroes have
increased 38 per cent., and the whites
only 26 per cent It is impossible that
the colored people can have been ill-
treated, persecuted or driven from
their home* in the South, as the Re
publican papers pretend, and bred and
increased as they hare done. They
moat hare been cared for, and welt
cared for, too, for no race can double
its numbers in seventeen years unless
it is in a prosperous condition.
The heaviest increase of the negroes,
46J£ per cent, is in South Carolina,
from which State we had the wildest
stories of the raids and outrages of the
“Red Shirt” clubs. The six Southern
States given show an increase in blscks
of 39 per cent, while their increase in
the eight Northern States is only 29
per cent In Connecticut, Rhode Is
land and in Massachusetts the increase
is far less than Sooth Carotins, North
Carolina and Maryland, evidencing tho
fact that the negro thrives best on this
side of the Potomac, and is best cared
for here, and that emigration to North
ern climes is injurious to him.
Should the increase of the negro
population be as high throughout the
Union as in these fourteen States,
whose statistics are at band, the color
ed population of tho United States
amounts at present to 6,743,000, having
nearly doubled since the war, despite
‘the Ku-Kluxing and bulldozing” to
which, according to the Republican pa
pers, it has been subjected. The Unit
ed States census report will have all
the effect of a Democratic campaign
document It will show that the South
is prospering, and the negro is itnprov-
with it’’

We have received the first number
of the Atlanta Daily Phonograph,
published by W. T. Christopher tc
Bro, the well-known proprietors of the
Sunday Phonograph. The Gate City
now has three daily papers, and good
ness only knows how many weeklies,
monthlies and semi-occasional publi
cations. It seems, in fact to be fast
becoming a city of papers and printers;
and to its nowspaper enterprises—not
forgetting somo of thoso tlmt have long
sinco had to suspend publication for
tho want of local patronage—Atlanta
owes more for its rapid development
as a railroad centre and its growth and
activity in a commercial point of view,
than to any other one* cause or branch
of industry. Although the business
men of Atlanta have seen a number of
well conducted and worthy newspa
pers perish for the want of patronage,
we hope a better fate is in store for the
Daily Phonograph. Its publishers
arc practical newspaper men, and
doubtless know something about what
it will cost to keep their bantling alive.
Wo hope, at least, that they have reck
oned well, and that tho Daily Pho
nograph will grow fast and have a
long and prosperous voyage over the
tugged and uncertain sea of Atlanta
journalism.
It is well known that the kinds of
food required by stock at different
times and seasons are quite different;
that more grain is required for the cold
season; that less heat-producing food is
needed for tho hot months; that the
quantity, variety, etc., is to be gauged
by the condition of the animal and the
object with which it is being fed.
Among those kinds of feedings, how
ever, which are more or less neglected
the country over is the proper food win
tcring of stock. It is too often taken
for granted that, if it is not to be fat
tened for msrket,'rough feed, precarious
grass pickings, etc., are sufficient to
keep it in condition. Bat this is s
mistake. More or less grain should
under all circumstances bo fed in the
winter season. It emphatically pays, and
stock can not be kept in thriving con
dition .without it. There is no more mis
taken economy than the withholding of
this kind of food, and the farmer who
would make money out of his stock
should begin by looking well into this
matter.—Stockman.
TnE Meridian (Miss.) Mercury in
dorses a brother editor who had “inde
pendence enough to give a bloated
preacher a diff and knock the conceit
ont of him,” and adds that ministers
are becoming impndent and intoler
ant because of too much chicken-meat.
This, according to the Cincinnati En
quirer, presents another social prob
lem. Its solution, according to this
Mississippi plan, will knock the poul
try business. The question, therefore,
arises; would it not be better to in
dulge our preachers in their weakness
for chicken, and put up with their in
tolerance, rather than food them on
coarser meats apd rain the chicken
industry ? We patifto an American
people. .
A nsroucD Committee clerk at
Washington the other day arid of the
Congressman who hod him removed:
“Be will never dare to run in my dis
trict again.” This moves the Wash
ington Star to remark that “when
Committee clerks begin to fed and as
sert ownership in the people, it iaabont
time fox voters to Mccitain who thsir
real owners ore, if they hate any.”
The Elections Over—JIa urn. Practi
cal.
Wc have searched the calendar
diligently, and fail to find any other
data for an election to be held during
the year 1881. With thanks to the
good Lord, and to oar law-makers for
this end to political contests for a sea
son, we ore ready now to enter with
our readers into the discussion of mat
ters of a peaceful, practical, progres
sive and developing natuie. The win
ter has been strong with politics,
snd weather, boi amid all this confu
sion, the changes wrought, the disap
pointments, failures, and successes, the
world has wagged along aH the same,
and we enter a season for reflection.
In onr agricultural community' ar
rangements for planting are about com
pleted. Some changes in the systems
are proposed, and wc suppose the fall
programme is fixed. There seems to
be a determination on the part oInmost
farmers to pay more attention to the
cultivation of food crops. This is well,
bnt experience has taught the valuable
lesson snd pen references can not more
forcibly impress the importance of the
plan. We do not doubt that a large
area of our triable lands will be rigor
ously worked, and, with the encourage
ment of nature’s good seasons, we hope
for bountiful harvests, which alone can
rid ns of debt
Onr mercantile interests are* not
languishing. The season of .business
opened late, but there is no general
cansa for disparagement 'That energy,
vim and progressive liberality, which
characterizes onr business men, is still
alive, snd must move with the wheel
of time and progress. Onr own city
enjoys many advantages ms a com
mercial point; her resources are abun
dant and to husband them should be
the purpose of every citizen of Albany.
Onr legitimate sphere, as a market
town extends into ten counties, snd as a
wholesale market we should embrace
the whole of the territory of Southwest
Georgia.
Our professional men all seem active;
watchful and progressive. There
seems to be no lack of business for the
more industrious and deserving of
them.
The mechanics are sll full of busi
ness, and there seems to bo a good de
mand for their services. This is one
of the very best “signs of the times,”
and may be accepted as proof positive
of progress in our community.
Let tho good work go on. Let
“work” be the watchword for 188L
Henbv Wabd Beeches preached an
eloquent sermon Sunday evening, de
fending the persecuted Jews in Germa
ny, in which he declared that we are
indebted to the Jewish race for laws
for tho Christian world, snd that if na
tive German brains can not compete
with Hebrew intelligence and energy,
they onght to go under. We daresay
that tho outcry against the Jews is
largely from the ignorance snd not the
brains of Germany.
The Forty-sixth Congress, which, we
presume, reassembled yesterday, has
only forty-nine more working days. It
is to be hoped that more of the Demo
cratic members will be in their scats
during tho remainder of the session
than were there before the holiday ad
journment, and that the short time left
them will be devoted to earnest work.
