MCINTOSH A EVANS. F^OP're. SATURDAY, APRIL 30, 1881. . The appointment of ’Oeneiml Long- ■treet to the Georgia Marshalebip items to aa>iify everybody. The Atlanta Daily Phonograph baa quit being a daily paper. Reason— lack of patronage. Sncb is lile. The railroad aenaation is bound to bring tbe port of Brunswick promi nently before the eyes of the magnates, and we ahouldnolbe surprised to bear of an early extension of the Brunswick and Albany Railroad, from Albany to tbe Chattahoochee. Count DxLessets is quietly prose cuting tbe work on tbe Panama canal. It baa been found that tbe nature of tbe soil is sncb that t|ie canal will not coat over $100,000,000, and tbe count says the job does not begin to be as difficult as tbe digging of the Suez ca nal. Tbe work will be completed in 1888. What a terrible muddle is that they are, haring in Washington. There seems to be a complete dead-lock in the ■Senate,' and an entire suspension of public business. Tho administration is unable to control its own friends and, the Democratic Senators are bolding the wholo concern up to ridicule. It’s all on account of Billy Mahone. The ‘Boston Herald dissolves the dead-look by saying: “All this expense of a superfluous session of tho Senate to obtain for two men salaries of a few thousand dollars I It would be money saved to the country to make both Gorham and Riddleberger a donation from tbe contingent fund and send tbe two nuisances about their business, if they have any.” Sootheen cotton mills have made money while their Northern rivals were being satisfied at bolding their own. After such experience perhaps the South will turn her band to other industries, tbe raw material of which she has in abundance. There would be more money in it than in politics and more honor too.—AT. T. Herald. —We will attend to both little matters, thank yon, says the Augusta Chroni cle. The Baltimore Gazette remarks that “there are several remarkable coinci dences in connection with the lives and deaths of the Csar and Abraham Lincoln. Both were the great emanci pators of this generation; both died by amsaination; the chief assassin in each case waa injured and his death follow ed speedily; a woman waa hanged in both cases and the executions in both cases took place under martial law and on a scaffold surrounded by troops and in garrisoned capitals.” Senator Dawes’ • ‘Southern Outrage.” That “Southern Outrage” which Sen ator Dawes, of Massachusetts, from his place in tho Senate; sent forth to the country a few days ago, has exploded, and is, as the Cincinnati Enquirer very truly remarks in an editorial upon the subject in its issue of Sunday last, “a fair sample of the “Southern out rages’.” Mr. Dawes, a Senator of the United States, rose in the Senate cham ber to tell tbe country a melancholy story of a man in Mississippi, a Repub iiean, whose property bad been burned and who had been driven out of that State to his home in Massachusetts, because of his political convictions. He was asked to give names and par ticulars, but declined to do so. But the story went to the country as tbe truth. Last Wednesday Mr. Dawes again arose in the Senate to present an elaborate statement of the wrongs of this Massachusetts man from Missis sippi, a newspaper statement printed in Boston, several columns in length. Mr. Dawes asked leave to amend. He had charged the entire State of Missis sippi with inoendiary persecution of some man whose name he eonld not give. Hr. Dawes asked leave to trans fer the charge to tho State of Louisi ana, and gave the name of the man whose accumulations and home and whole property had been burned to ashes by the State of M no, of Louisiana. The name of the martyr waa Charles Heath. There was no mistake about it this time. Tbe har rowing dhtails were all given. They were almost as terrible as the outrages committed upon the negress and prosti tute, Pinkston, who was the principal witness for the conspirators against the inauguration of President-elect Tilden four years ago. Well. It now turns out that Charles Heath owns, and owned, no property in the pariah in Louisiana where his im mense manufacturing enterprises were located. His brother owns some prop erty there, appraised at $3,340. Mr. Dawis represented tho man as a mil lionaire. The ward in which ibis vast property is situated is officered by col ored.men and under the control of col ored voters. A Grand Jury in the lo cality found that the fire which burned Charles Heath’s brother’s property was the work of an incendiary, and that the loss was “fully covered by insurance.’ It waa the opinion of the Grand Jury and the Ccurt that the property was burned to obtain the insurance mdney. After getting the insurance money their martyr stopped in Washington long enough to enable Dawes to manufac ture a “Southern outrage,” and Dawes willingly deceives the country. BOr.VDFOK THE riELDS OF GEOR GIA. MEMORIAL DAT. The Question of Immigration Renew ed—A Proposition to Procure Farm Labor from Foreign Sources—The Work Now Being Conducted by Mr. OBSERVANCE TUESDAY . ALBANY. Fontaine. In connection with tbe retirement of Ur. Brady from the Post-Office De partment, it is stated that other impor tant changes in the personnel of the office vacated by him are probable. It is charged that the pay for the trans portation of mails on leas than one hundred out of nine thousand star routes has been raised from $700,000 at the time of letting to $2,800,000. Irregularities, it is charged, were con nived for the purpose ol rewarding fa vorites. These irregularities are chief ly confined to trans-Mississippi routes. On the subject of “Education in Georgia, the New York Herald says: The schoolmaster seems to be march ing through Georgia at a very lively pace. Ten years ago the white pupils ‘in the public schools of the State num bered leas than forty-three thousand, and the colored less than seven thou- sand. Since that period each year has witnessed a steady improvement in this scandalous condition of affairs, and, ac cording to statistics just published, the school attendance to-day is more than four times larger than it was at the period referred to, or, in other words, nearly a quarter of a million. A glance at the report made by the Commission er of Education shows that the colored children have not been ignored or for gotten by the authorities. In round figures tin white pupils number one hundred and fifty thousand, and the colored eighty-six thousand. The dis heartening feature of the situation is that the appropriation for tho is ridiculously small, the total from all sources—State, county and town—being only about half a million dollars. It is to be hoped the new measures suggested for the increase of the educational fund will bo adopted. To educate its illiterates is tbe fiist and highest duty of every State, and it is worse than folly to hesitate at the cost.'' Another Gentleman from Virginia. Congressman Jorgensen, of Virginia, a straight-out Republican is accused by Mahone A Co. of having no stake in that State ontside of his sole-leather trunk and government pay. J orgenson has no love for Mahouo. When Ma hone seeks to parcel ont the offices in Virginia, according to the corrupt bar gain made with bis new allies, Jorgon son, alarmed for his flesh-pots, not only protests, but admonishes the Pres ident that “this thing must stop.” The unhappy President does not know what to do. He must either offend Mahone or.Jorgensen, and to offend either is to split, uot the Democratic party in Vir ginia, bat the Republicans. Jorgensen insists that 31,000 Readjustara shall not be pat in the lead of 85,000 Republi cans. Mahons demands that this shall be done. Here is Mr. Garfield placed between the devil and the deep sea. So deadly has the quarrel grown that Mr. George C. Gorham, Mahono’s trainer, had to take a hand in his pap er, attack ing Jorgensen moat seventy. He wak ed the wrong pa avenger. The Con gressman prepared a statement that not only justified himself bat it also blis tered Mr. George C. Gorham. Wa are told that, accompanied by a friend, he visited the Republican office and re quested Mr. Gotham to print his com munication over his (Jorgaaaen’s) own signature. This Gorham refused to do. The request waa repeated and again re fused. The Congressman then launch ed out with a atom of abase. Wit- lies of the seine say that ha called Mr. Gorham a liar, scoundrel and pimp, emphasising these epithets with pro lane a^jettires. Mr. Gorham calm ly replied That talk was cheap. Jor gensen then designated the editor as a lying, cowardly car, who had not tho manhood to resent the language. After venting his bile at considerable length he took his card toYhe Pott, where it was published. This is a very pretty quarrel, remarks the Augusta Chronicle. In the at tempt to split the Democracy with Ma hone, the President and his party have really disarticulated the Readjnsterand Grip-tack backbones. Bat whst tho Chronicle suggests is. that since Gorham and Mahone are Siamese twins, and since Gorham has never ceased to defend Mahone with ink, and since Jorgensen will fight and Gorham will not, let Gen. Billy Mahone put in an appearance and settle the little af fair with Jorge risen. If Gorham is a “liar, scoundrel and pimp,” what most his principal be? The commander of the Gripsack army has possession of the field, and is likely to keepvt. The only chance for Mahone to establish his pugnacious reputation is to bring Jorgensen to terms/’ The statue to the memory of the late Admiral David G.

Mr. Francis Fontaine, the Commis sioner of Immigration from Georgia, has issued the following circular to the farmers of Georgia. Mr. Fontaine has already does more for the eaose of immigration than any other man coold or would have done with the encouragement be has had, bat if ha gets this schema in operation he will have dona a greater work than ever for the State. Nothing is sorer than that the labor question is going to be a very serious one in this section be fore many years have gone by, and Mr. Fontaine here offers an experiment that may solve it. One of tbe most essential things, is to provide a suitable house for receiv ing these immigrants when they come. This can he done only by the railroad companies interested and they should do it at ones.' In the north and west the leading lines even have eating booses along the roots at which the immigrants can get food that suits them. There is nothing that would give more eoufidence to the people, or tend more certainly to bring immigrants than the building of a suit able house at Allanta for the reccptioo of the immigrants, and getting some suitable man to atay there and manage it. Mr. Fontaine’s card is as follows, and we commend it to our readers: [ and national pride.

A charge of five dollars per head will be required, in order to pay expenses. If the laborers are not de livered at the place agreed upon, the money will he refunded less one dollar registration fee. Female domestic servants are not included.* It is hoped and believed that the public will ap preciate the difficulties attending my position, and realise that the undertak ing is one far from pleasant, exceed ingly laborious, and an experiment at least. It has succeeded in the West and ought to succeed here. If successful, several thousand can be speedily furnished; if unsuccessful, it will be difficult to inaugurate so com prehensive a scheme again. It is very important that good wheat bread can be supplied them, for they know nothing of corn bread, and will not lake kindly to it It is essential that they should receive good dietand lodging until they can learn our language and provide for themselves. A few months will ac complish this and, after that it is con fidentially believed they will either buy land or work at tho same wages now paid to our excellent negro labor ers. My agents in Europe, together with tbe facilities offered and describ ed by the following telegram, will in sure success if the effort is sustainod by tho people. It is proper to state that I have been in correspondence with Colonel Pope on this subject for a long time: “Nxw York. April 23,188L—Fran cis Fontaine, Commissioner, AtlsntA Ga: Can good white laborers he used in your section with fair wages, com fortable accommodations and good treatment ? I can obtain daily, through our foreign immigrant agency, a good class of people, and I wish to locate them without waiting for land arrange ments. Please inquire among your farmers and gnawer promptly. A- Porx.” The press of the State are respect fully requested to copy this circular. Respectfully, Franch Fontaine. Preparing a Hew Bankruptcy Law. A Washington dispatch of Saturday says: “A brief special! meeting of the Senate judiciary committee was held this morning at which Senators In galls, McMillan and Garland were ap pointed a sab-committee of three to consider tho subject of bankruptcy during the recess of Congress; and to report to the fall committee, next De cember, some measure for enactment into a national bankruptcy law. There was only above quorum present, Messrs. Conkling, Bayard, Garland and Logan being absent, and no other busi ness was transacted at the meeting. And now at last after the memories of all the latter day heroes have been perpetuated with monuments, George Washington's time has come. A dis- patch from Washington says: At the last session of Congress an act was passed appropriating $30,000 to erect a monument to tho memory of George Washington, at hit birth place in Vir ginia. Just before Secretary Everts retired from tho Slate Department a design for the monument was submit ted to tha Department by Howe & Dodd, but no action was taksn until Saturday,when Secretary Blaine author ised tbe architects to prepare drawings and to estimate the cost of erection. If it is fonnd ’that the estimates will ad mit of the erection of the monument for the snm appropriated, the design as submitted will probably be accept ed by the State Department under whose supervision the work is to be done. Mr. Howe left this afternoon to visit tho proposed site in Virginia. the day.

At this period of our history, the minds of the people North and South, were unsettled. The sec tional prejudice of the respective sec tions, having for its source the Mis souri compromise, rapidly grew more bitter, among too many leading men who were exceedingly anxious to wear the Presidential laurels. It severed that link of unity that had firmly existed. Then the radiant heavens grew dark, and gloomy was the appearance that overshadowed us. Demoralisation and scoession were inareasing. On and on thia darkness came and collected, until at last, as it were, its gigantic powers burst forth like a volcanic eruption, casting with its lara one of the most cruel civil wars ever record ed either in anpient or modern times. At this momentoua period tho pride and the flower of tbe South went forth to the invading Federal armies. Hero tho thirteen Bta'tcs rallied and allied their forces, and hoisted the Con federate flag to the broad breezes of heaven; and at tbe patriotism and love of country that inspired our armies and displayed to the world gallantry and chivalry unknown in the pages of hiatory, all the world wondered. The South ba'.tled against a govern ment, having the national treasury, munitions of war and the resources of tho known world to draw npon— the most remarkable conflict eTer re corded, qnd when written, should b$ in blaring capitate, and handed down to tbe i ising generation as an evidence that prompted their ancestors in those glorious deeds. We fought for liberty and all dear to freemen. The people of the South were educated in the Jeffenonten school; whether right or wrong, we were honest and sincere. To admit tbit we were wrong would be to say we should not have assembled to pey tribute to our departed friends and countrymen. We will ever continue to keep them fresh (n our ptemory.
