It is stared that under advice and en

the Republicans of Georgia will make
an effort to re-organise. The President
his been made to believe that a num

it can be made respectable with patron

Some of tire stalwart organs even went
to far as to charge the Democrats with
revolntisnary intentions, and, if we re

made a speech denouncing the conduct

Macon Telegraph and Messenger :
••We are glad to see that the effort* of
Senator Brown and several of our Con
gressmen in behalf of the preservation
of the water Cannes in Georgia are
meeting with favorable notice by the
departments at Washington City. It
was our pleasure to meet a few days
since with Mr, Charles Filmorc Swain,
from Washington, an accomplished gen
tleman and aakillfal engineer, who was
visiting Macon and other places, seek
ing far the government special informa
tion in regard to our streams, their caps'
city to furnish water far cotton and oth
er factories, etc. Georgia is peculiarly
bleased with such water facilities, and
the wonder ia that our people have not
made them more extensively known to
Northern and Western capitalists and
manufacturers. There are many places
on ihe Ocmnlgee that can furnish as
much water power aa it used at Lowell
and three hundred miles of the best and
molt varied woods of sll sizes slong its

Both of these States have received a
heavy white immigration from other
parts of the country, which .has more
than overbalanced whatever gain in
colored population may have been
made. They have been a scene of
rapid development, and thus the rela
tive decrease of blacks ia to be account
ed for, not by the exodna or dying one,
bnt. by the infusion of whites. Th e
movement of blacka io the Northern
and Western States hss apparently
been of little comparative account, nnd
migration of negroes has not attained
to each dimensions as to be suscepti
ble there. Mississippi, Louisiana and
North Carolina, States from which the
exodus principally took place, have all
apparently gained heavily in the rela
tive proportion of blacks ; while Kan
san, to which the major part went, has
lost in proportion to the increase in
population, and Indiana haa gained but
slightly.
The Camilla correspondent of the
Waycross Reporter ia another Geor
gian who baa seen the evils of the pres
ent Railway Commission law in Geor

expresses himself aa follows: “I am

Macon, Ga.,
Dear Sir Your esteemed favor of
the 3d iiisl. is fo hand. I send you in flic
form of an ‘open letter’’ such facta as
present themselves in regard Li artesian
wells in this city. Four years ago :
In 1874 he
was firoi ncuiinat'-if, "as the only man
inilii- UiMrii t who ronld beat White-
!r " Whilely waa then all-powerful.
Able. idir--ud. far-seeing, far-reaching.
ploa-aut atul affable, he had gained a
perfect -death grip.” not only upon
flux district, but upon the State. He
com ip inded and used mors government
iratrunage than any other Republican
from Georgia, and his influence was
immense, lienee, when the campaign
of 1874 approached. Whitely and his
party never appeared stronger.
The Democratic Convention met In
Albany, and aft. r a fall and free dis
cussion, it wan go- c ally agreed that if
Republicanism >- old be defeated at all
in the Second, William E. Smith ought
to be the standard-bearer. After thir
ty-odd ballots he was nominated, lie
reluctantly accepted Ihe trust; but I
went at once into the canvass with a
determination to conquer. Hit unsel
fish pal viol ism and almost superhuman
energy, became epidemic amoug tbe
people, and tin- campaign that fallow
ed was the hardest fought on record.
Every inau felt that if we fail yd the
failure would be final. Bnt, under
M r Smith’* leadership we won, and
the election showed a handsome Dem
ocratic majority, and the destruction
of Whitely and Radicalism in the Sec
ond.

The Georgia Legislature should either

Treasurer Speer has received a let
ter from A. Williams, of Chicago, stat
ing that he had junt recorded posses
sion of 110,000 ol Georgia bonds is
sued in aid of tho Atlantic and Gulf
railroad which were lost in 1862. Mr.
Williams states that tho bonds were
sent through tho Confederate lines
under a fictitious address and were
sent from Nastan to Halifax, Nova
Scotia, where they were loat or stolen.
It is supposed that Mr. Williams was
known to be disloyal as he wan afraid
the bonds would fall into the bands of
the United States and be confiscated.
The principal of $|0,000 and the inter

The bonds were due last August and
aaingular fact ia that no bonds or cou

are presened and prove to be genuine
that they will be paid.

We have hoard it hinted in what is

Georgia and Central roads are stock

lies on a stratum of rotten limestone,
v>ry similar to the stratum here. Be
neath Ibis is a stratum of sand. The
stratum of limestone docs not extend 90
high op ax the counties adjacent to At
lanta. The other stratum does extend
there. Tha water gathered in that re-
giro. wil*. I think, be found beneath
the stratum of limestone at Albany, if
an effort ix made in that direction. Yoa
would perhaps have to go deeper than
the wells here; but if yon can get ar
tesian water in Albany by going 500
feet or more it will bo a boon which
the good’people of that city will not
despite. The artesian well* have
given a character to this city which
it never could have hail without them.
Hoping that the above will he of some
avail in awakening an interest in this
important enterprise, 1 remain.
Very respcctfnlly roars,
