MCINTOSH A EVANS. Prop’rs. SATURDAY, APRIL 23,lgjU Anrnow even the Virginia Republi- cans have commenced hone. to kick Ms- Tee stalwarts have started a boom to make Robert Lincoln Garfield’s suc cessor. Leadville has six thoatres, six daily papers, five hanks and no church. A sad reflection upon the sort of civiliia- tion that prevails in a community which has no Sunday law. Jar Gould’s grain fleet, composed of barges, has begun business on the.Mis- siooippi river, and Mr. Fink, of the railroad pool, haa'begun to lower rates from SL Louis to the EasL Gov. Colquitt says that the state- ment that the Citizens’ Bank held an over due draft for $4,000 drawn by him and endorsed by Col. Avery is untrue. Mr. Patterson, the cashier of the bank also denies the statement Fifteen hundred refrigerator car* are being built in Chicago for the pur pose of transporting Southern vegeta bles to the West and Northwest. What enormous proportions this vege table business is attaining! Both branches of tho Indiana Legis lature have voted to submit to the poo- ple'propositions to amend the constitu tion so as to enable women to vote, and to prohibit the manufacture and sale of intoxicating liquors. — a West Randolph, Vt., April 15.- severe snow storm provails throughout Central and Northern Vermont. Sev eral inches have fallen here. At Rox- burg on tho Central Vormont line, the snow is a foot deep on a level, and in an adjoining town, lies two feet deep with good sleighing. Mabcellus Thornton, one of tho Georgia Independents (on a small scale) who went to Washington and swore that he had never voted any other than a Republican ticket, has just been re warded. He gets an eighteen hun dred dollar clerkship. Mareellus is a clever fellow, but cheeky, oh, lord ! copying the next highest office gift of the country, was never witnessed by the American people. In this age of civilization, peace and enlightenment 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 hone really desires to fight His fire- slinging at Senator Hill, which was met in a manner so appropriate and dignified By the Georgia Senator, loses its force with those who remember how roughly 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 out in meetidg, puts in a sockdologer for the consideration of Mahooe’s best dueling pistol. This is talk with the- bark off. Says the Suu : “Our esteemed contemporary, the New York Tima, printed, yesterday, a letter from one of its correspondents giving an interesting account of an in terview with Gen. L. A. Sheldon, the second self of Gen. Garfield. Among the subjects discussed was Senator Ma hone, of Virginia. ‘I understand,’ said Gen. Sheldon, ‘that be and his friends do not want to go back lj> Virginia to do emerged from the desolation of civil war. The carpet-bagger* stole and squandered most of thiit money. Nor did they stop there. The cost of car rying on the State governments kept pace with the enormous inflation of their indebtedness and taxation follow ed in the train of both there excesses, almost to the point of confiscation. The local taxes of these nine States ag gregated 411.217,593 in I860, when they were prosperous. They summed up $26,020,332 when they were pros trated in 1870. In 1860 they had 38,- 508,096 acres of land under culture, valued at $1.207,588£55, and in 1870 they had 31,078,856 seres, valued at $545,056,915. These are appalling figures. The revival of the Sooth in the face of them, a* exhibited by the returns of the present census, is one of the most astounding facts in the histo ry of civilization. battle in the coming campaign and have their opponents taunting them with the remark, ‘Ton hare gone over to the Republican party, and hare nothing to rhote in return.’’ This, then, is Senator Mahone’s standing of political morality; he is not only ready to bar ter principles forj offices, but he is not ashamed of the trade! On the con trary, he glories in it, and is anxious to make public exhibition to his friends of the consideration for which he sold himself I We‘know that when the slave auction block used to exist at Richmond, the poor slaves, when put •up for sale, took a pride in bringing a high price; hut wo never heard before that this feoling extended to any of tho white men of Virginia.’’ One hundred and thirty persons -have been rescued from the ice-bound districts of Dakota and many more cannot ho reached. A committee com posed of the acting Governor, the May or of Yaqkton and others, have issued an appeal giving a statement of the losses and perils of the flood, and pray ing for immediate aid. An Ohio man has actually declined to accept a government office. Warner M. Dr toman is his name. He lives at Cincinnati and has written a letter to President Garfield declining with thanks the office of Solicitor of the Treasury Department This self- abnegation upon the part of an Ohio man is something unfanthomable. 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 turn*, showing that as long as confi dence is maintained it is not a favorite currency. 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.’’ _ There is no reform in Garfield. He is a partisan of the first order.. The 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. An old West Pointer who knows Grant well says: “The ex-Presideat has landed in Mexico, and hia arrival there is as pregnant with fate to that country as was the landing of Cortez. Mexico has been A dream with him ever since he was there as a boy-sol dier—for he was nothing more—and 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 no doubt be means railroads and im 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 in Hexico*than any of bis friends have j:t given him credit ior. 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. w An item is going the rounds of the press which seems to establish tho fact | “ ““ j . w fices already well filled for the express , The decision of Judge Underwood constituting the State a preferred credi tor in the case of tho bankrupt bank of Rome, followed now by tho attempt of the Attorney-General to come in ahead of all other depositor! for the State’s deposit in the basted Citizens’ Bank of Atlanta, will make the people, of Geor gia a little dubious of such banks as are 8tat« depositories, in the future.

We fully endorse every word that our State Treasurer says in 'the above, and hasten to second the motion that the State have a secure vault of own and keep its money in it its A .Mi-lake. The Savannah Mem and Augusta Chronicle and Comtitulionalist both published the following press dispatch on Taesday: New Yobk, April 18.—A dispatch from Chewacla Lime Kiln, Lee county, Georgia, says: “A cyclone passed over 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 the air and was carried seventy yards. No one was killed.” There most be a mistake somewhere. We lutvs beard of no cyclone in our adjoining county of Lee, and, further more, we have naver heard of such a place in that county a- “Chewacla Lime Kiln.” The diapit. h evidently started from Lee .county. H ibama, and git mixed by the teb ;i*ph operators. 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 found ready to serve .you. See adver, tisement The Waycross Railroad. The Savannah Meter of Wednesday says: “A dispatch received yesterday from Col. H. S. Haines, who is out on the road, reporta exceedingly favorable progress on the Waycross line. The road is now completed, with the excep tion of a stretch of five miles, which will bo covered by Thursday, and on Friday a construction train will pass ovar tiie entire line. Local passenger trains will run through on the 27th. A polished cross- tie, made from the magnolia, will mark the junction of the East Florida Riil- road and the Waycross and Georgia, and it will be pqi down with brass •pikes.” _ . A Stbanoe Disease.—A letter to the Herald from the Pacific railway in Canada, describes a singular disease which has attacked the hands on the road, as follows : He sat down, apparently perfectly well, to eat his dinner. Bis feet began to swell and the swelling extended it self up.his legs and body, reaching the vital parts in about ten minut09, caus ing his abdomen and chest to expand to most unnatural proportions, and be tumbled down dqad, all in less than fifteen minutes from the time tho dis ease attacked hia feet fn this way these people are dying in dozens, and already more than one hundred have been carried off. ered on the prohibition question jnstat this time.

Lee’s mill, three miles west of Wiilacooclice, is in full blast. This is a new mill, having been erected bnt a short time.

She is destined to follow in the wake of her sister counties. Her corn cribs and smoko houses will soon be removed to the far West. Irwin was once considered to be the most Independent county in the State, bnt guano and the hope of much cotton will soon ling her in the .embrace of pecuniary embarrassment*. Judge T. B. Young, the present Ordinary, is the youngest officer acting in this capacity iu this Slate, his age being ouly twenty-five. He is giving entire satisfaction. A flat loaded with several tons of guano, while on its way from Haw- kinsville to Bowers’ Mill, sank in the Ocmnlgee river a few days since. Most of the gnano was re covered, though in a damaged con dition. Corn planting ia progressing rap idly, and cotton land is being pre pared. HEHKIEN COUNTY. Guano, cotton and starvation. Croquet is the favorite game o’ Sundays in Alapaba. Measles .holds pretty good sway iu this burg. Owing to the backward spring, many of oar farmers have not com menced to plant. Times are dull. Everything seems to be at a stand-still. Not even a dog-fight occur* to break the monotony that bangs like a funeral pall over our burg. Xogro festi vals and a free indulgence in “rock and rye’’ is the only vibration of the pnlse of life of this burg. But it is to be hoped that this spell will not continue long. It is the going ont of cotton and just before the com ing in of wool. One month hence anti Alapaba will be as busy as a bee in a tar bucket. Several new buildiugsare in contemplation, amt, ere the summer closes, we expect to see several new residences going up. The turpentine business in this county has been greatly retarded by the severe cold. Turpentine has been slow running. We bad an interview with*Mr. Ball, one of the most enterprising turpentine men, and he informed us that be had lost one dipping on account of the severity of the weather, that he had paid ont money for box catting that ought to have been realised had it not been for the above reason. II. II. Tift has been - greatly re tarded in his mill business, owing to not being able to haul' logs to bis mill on account of the ground being softened by so much rain. Col. W. H. lastinger deserves the commendation of the citizens of Berrien conuty for his go-abeada- tivoness in conducting the Berrien County Mem.
