Mr. Hahone cannot defend himself
with threats of beastly Tioloneo among
his fellow-Senators. There is no surer
way Jfor him to lose the respect of the
country, and the sympathy of hia politi
cal adherents, than by a threat to draw
blood, from his political enemies with a
jack-knife. The Senate Chamber is
not a proper place for prize fighters!
Brain combats are in order there, and
when a man, like Mahone, is overcome
with honest reason and intellectual
strength, the better plan for him to
adopt iB to yield gracefully.
A few of us disbelieve that Mr. Ma

Mahone was handled by Generals
Early and Bradley Johnson several
years ago. Senator Brown, who ahrinks
from no man on an emergency, gave
Mr. Mahone a much better opening for
an outburst of temper than did-Mr.
Hill, to say nothing of the exposing
darts hurled at the wayward Virginian
by the two Senators from Alabama,
Messrs. Morgan and Pugh, and by Mr.
Beck, of Kentucky. These were much
more personal and severe in their ref
erences than Mr. Hill. Senator Hill is
not a duelist, let it be sai.d to his credit,
and this Mahone well understands.
But, dropping the Senators out of
the question, Mr. Dana, of tho New
York Sun, who generally talks right

“Our esteemed contemporary, the

The-Griffin banking company, one
of the State depositories, according to
a special dispatch to the Atlanta
'Constitution, of Sunday, has decid
ed ..to ttfrn over all the funds of the
State now in hand to Treasurer Speer,
Amounting to $51,000. The recent
court decision making the State n pre
ferred creditor, caused the hank to
take this step, it being deemed an in
jury to other depositors to do business
under such a decision.
It is said that there is now in the
vaults of the treasury department a
larger amount of gold than was ever
known to be in one place in the history
of modern times, and probably more
than coud be authenticated as existing
in a single treasury at any time before
in the World. There is now about
$173,000,000 of gold coin and bullion,
exclusive of some $55,000,000 in silver,
while the Bank of England has only
about $75,000,000 in gold. What is
more singular is that it stays in Iho
vaults, no matter what the demand re
cently, for as fast as it is paid out it re

dence is maintained it is not a favorite

The Wayeruss and Jacksonville Rail
road
“The above road” says the Savan
nah Meter-ot Saturday, “will be for
mal opened on the first of May next,
that having been selected so as to give
abundant time for placing the line in
thorough order before throwing it
open to the public. This determina
tion to forego the temptation to inaugu
rate travel and freight tariff over the
road before it is completed in every re
spect, so as to insure safety and dis-
teb, is highly commendable. It was
constructed by the Waycross and
Florida Railroad Company to the St.
Mary’s river, and by the E ist Florida
Railway Company from the SL Mary’s
river to Jacksonville, and this latter
company has made an arrange
ment with the Savannah, Florida and
Western Railway Company for the op
eration of the entire line from Way-
cross to Jacksonville in connection
with its own system.
We are informed that the road has
been built in the most substantial man
ner, and speed, safety and comfort will
betheono object of the management.
Nothing to secure these desirable ends
will be omitted, and no new road, so
complete in all the details of construc
tion and equipment as this will he, has
ever been opened in this section of
eonntry. Now and powerful locomo
tives will speed the' traveler on his way
in elegant passenger coaches, while the
freight service ot the new line will be
fully adapted to all requirements.
The people of Savannah aro to be
congratulated upon the great commer
cial benefits which will enure to the
city through the medium of this line,
while our Florida friends will, by it, be
brought so close to us that they will
be near neighbors in every sense of the
word. We understand that invitations
will soon be issued to the business men
of Jacksonville, Savannah and Charles
ton, and their families and lady friends,
to avail themselves of the courtesies of
the line fora free trip over it on tickets
good for thirty days after the opening.
No doubt this invitation will be hearti
ly responded to, and those who do avail
themselves thereof will be afforded
ample opportunities to test the truth of
alt we have written in. its commenda
tion.’’ _

Death of Lord Beaconsfleld.
Benjamin Disraeli, the politician and
author, and Earl of Beaconsfleld, whose
fortune in political adventure hat sur
passed the heroes of hia political ro
mances, breathed his list, after a pro
tracted illness, in the city of Loudon,
at- an early hour on Tuesday morn
ing-
A London press dispatch announc
ing the death of the great Tory leader,
says of him: “Ooo of a rase proscrib
ed by universal prejudice, which, when
be came to the stage, was under politi
cal disabilities in England; in a nation
whose governing claaa was founded on
the ablest arigtociacy that history has
told of, he rose by nil own genitu to
be the most conspicuous man in the
empire; to bo the head of the govern
ment, a place whoso duties mute it a
severer test of ability than any govern
ing place in the world. And with all
this political fortune he gained social
recognition by a noble claaa singular
ly exclusive in its national feeling.
' Nominally, he was of tho church of
Englind, and zealous for the establish
ment, bat is likely that he held to the
religion of his race. The English
nobility were the gods of his idoliatry
and clivy; yet in nis hooka, parallel
with his sycophantic worship may b#
seen the consciousness of self and race
in hia exaltation of the Jew* as the
race of pure blood, while all European*
are mongrels.”
The Pall Mall Gazette, in a leading
article says: “That Lord Beac insfleld’s
death will be an irreparable lota to hia
followers is very clear. His loos may
prove only less serious to the Liberals
than to the Conservatives. The pro
found transformation which Lord Bea-
consfield wrought in the temper and
spirit of English Conservatism, as it
was in the days of Peel, seem* to us
to have been among the most serious
political disasters of our era; but in
such a system of government as ours
we shall miss the coolness and self-
control, experience and goodsonse, and
on some occasions magnanimity, of the
great party leader who has gono.”
Springfield Republican proves it thus:
“He named for the Supreme Court an
unfit mao, already practically rejected.

there is as pregnant with fate to that
country as was the landing of Cortez.

ever since he was there as a boy-sol

was intoxicated with its possibilities
for empire and enjoyment. Grant says
now that he wants sixteen years in
which to develop the eonntry. In six
years he will be its President; in ten
years its dictator. He goes them as a
patriot, and the ‘outs’ will lake up with
him as a good man to head their col
umn. Grant talks about trade, and

portations snd sll that, but it is not
safe to say that you can tell from hia
conversation just what he is thinking
about. Grant means bigger business

It is said that the first cotton seed
milt was erected at the South in 1869,
and that now there are fifty-one in op
eration. There are exported to Europe
annually about 130,000 barrel* of oil,
which doubtless comes back to us, part
at leasts as olive oil. It is also used in
sosp. white oils, stearin*, and for hun
dreds of purposes. The cotton seed
cake is a capital cattle food, and made
into proper shape is a splendid fertili
zer. Its comparative value as attested
by the State chemist of Georgia is $87 50
a ton and it can be sold $22 to $25 a
ton. An ordinary fertilizer hat a com
mercial value of$37 and is sold at $50 to
$70 a' ton. -It it admitted.that a ton of
cotton seed yields 35 gallons of oil at
33 cents—$1150. It yields about $5 SO
worth of oak* and |150 worth of lint.
It coats about $10 for the seed and
$6 50 for working, barreling, etc., mak
ing $1650cost on a yield of $18501 or
a net profit of $8 a ton.

New Yobk, April 18.—A dispatch
from Chewacla Lime Kiln, Lee county,

this place yesterday, sweeping every
thing in its course. Many houses were
unroofed, and the house of W; H. How
ard was completely torn to pieces. A
heavy wagon in his yard was lifted in

more, we have naver heard of such a
place in that county a- “Chewacla Lime
Kiln.” The diapit. h evidently started

The Louisville Courier-Journal re-
lates a little incident connected with
Mahone’s career during the late war
which is worth repeating. On ono oc
casion Mahotre had a fight with Gen.
Wilson's division near Petersburg, and
Wilson captured a whole regiment of
Mahone’s men. Fitz Hugh Lee subse
quently gave Wilson a sound drubbing,
and recaptured Mahone’s lost regiment
and twelve or fourteen of Wilson's can
non. Mahone had the pieces banled to
his headquarters, and sent a dispatch to
the Richmond papers announcing that
he had whipped Wilson and captured
hia artillery. In the meantime he had
the guns placed in conspicuous posi
tions around his headquarters as tro
phies of war. Filz Hugh Lee, hearing
of this scurvy trick, went to Mahone’s
camp at 2 o'clock in the morning, and
demanded the guns. Mahone impu
dently refused to give them up. Fits
Hugh Lee went back to his camp and
ordered his .men to prepare to take the
guns. Gen. It E. Lee, hearing of the
difficulty, interfered, and Mahone de
livered the gone to him, refusing to
hand them over to Fitz Hugh, who had
taken them from the enemy and saved
Mahone’s captured regiment. In his
magnanimity Fitz Hugh Lee did not re
port to Gen. Lee that Mahone had lost
his regiment, but the little Brigadier
gave him no thanks, and meanly stuck
to it that he had gained a victory and
captured the guns. The incident is
suggestive of the character of the men.
Enebot and close attention to busi
ness will invariably receive their re
ward, when properly directed. We
might point to a score or more of
flourishing business establishments in
Albany for pi oof of this assertion, but
propose now to speak of one in particu
lar—that of Mr. Geo. 8. Greenwood.
Bat few of oar own citisens have any
idea of the amount of business that is
dore by this young man, and it is all
the result of energy and dose personal
attention. Leas than two years ago he
inserted his card in this paper announc
ing that he was prepared to furnish sash,
doors, blinds, etc., to the public. Now
he is famishing lumber, lime, laths,
cement and everything else needed by
contractor* and builders. When you
want lumber or anything else in his
line, call on him at his office on Wash
ington street, where he will always be
