State aid.
It it all well enough to lure this
grand Cotton Exposition, and we
would liko very much'to see the efforts
of those engaged In the enterprise
crowned with success; but that success
should come from the originators of
the enterprise and tire people of Allan-
Atlanta, who reap the benefits of it,
and not out of the pockets of the tax
payers of the State. This Cotton Ex
position is Atlanta’s enterprise—not
the State’s—end Atlanta ought to take
care of it. It will increase Atlanta’s
trade, bring a rich harvest to her hotel*
and boarding I oases, end give that city
-snch a boom for a time as no city io
Georgia has ever enjoyed before, and
hence it is nothing bat right that the
people and business men of Atlanta
should pay for it
Georgia has had some experience in
the matter of Stato aid, for which the
people hire paid dearly, and, if we re
member rightly, the same man figured
on Tursdaytaat, sod
a stir in Atlanta.

Accompanying their report the com
mittee submit and recommend the
passage of a bill prepared by them to
be entitled an “Act to provide for the
better inspection,, management end
control’of the convicts of this State.”
The Hews and Advertises is in-
principal features of the bill, from
which we gather that the latter pro
▼ides for the sppoinlmenc of an addi
tional and rather costly set of peniten
tiary officials, including a Board of
Commis.ioners, a secretary, a number
of wardens, physicians, etc., whose
s.l.ries will amount, in the aggregate,
to something like $15,000 annually.
At first glance this bill looks too
much like a “job” for political ends,
and, with the present lights before us,
in it all and manipulated the measures we are ready to express the hope thst
through the Legislature, during the it will not become a law. A Peniten-
Bullock regime, who is now at the tiary Commission and cooperative

ing this appropriation. Twenty thou
sand dollars is a'small request, when it
is considered that it comes from ono
of KimbfU’s enterprises, but it opens
the way for other and larger demands,
which will bo almost sure to follow.
The State of Georgia has no money
to squander upoa Mr. Kimball and At
lanta enterprises. She has public in
stitutions, such as the Lunatic Asy
lum, which are sadly in need of im
provement, and it will be a shame if
these continue to receive only the piti
ful sums doled out to them annually,
and this bill appropriating $20,000 of
the State’s money to Atlanta, Kimball
A Co. is permitted to pass.

Formal good-byes through the pub
lic press are not always in good tasto.
They too frequently burden the reader
with matter of no importance what
ever, save to the individual most affect
ed; but the writer feels that, under ex
isting circumstances, he^ can dare ad
dress himself to the readers of the
News' and Advertises, and thus bid
them publicly farewell.
My connection with the Albany
Newt and the Albany Mews and Ad
vertiser has continued for a term of
nearly fourteen years. I was virtually
brought up from boyhood under the
aagis of ihe liberal patronage bestow
ed by an appreciative people upon the
paper. I have been with the press of
Albany in its prosperity and in its ad-
vanity ; always cheered by the hope
that a bright and permanent prosperity
was before it. In my career here as a
journalist, I may have committed many
errors, but a conscientious conviction
goes with me in my retirement that
every poliey I ever advocated, evory
line I ever wrote was for what I un
derstood to be to the best interest of
my people.
I must confess that tha severing of
a strong tie, mads stronger by the pleas
ant associations of a long fourteen
years, causes in me a feeling
somewhat shin to sadness. But, when
I remember that by this change the
condition of the News and
Asvssmsn, an institution which I
have learned to love, grows strong, and
with this strength wiU be enabled to
bound forward to that position to which
it* past smicas entitle it, I can will
ingly commit my interest to the de
serving bands of those who succeed
me.
With Mr. H. M. McIntosh my asso
ciations have been most agreeable.
Mot a single difference has arisen be
tween ns, as to how the paper should
be .conducted; and not an editorial has
appeared in its columns during these
nine months of association that has not
met the hearty approval of both its
editors. My earnest good .wishes go
with him is his new relations, and J
feel confident that the paper cannot
fail to work its part faithfully so long
as he is identified with it
To all the employes of the office I
bid an affectionate adieu, and tender
them my earnest assurance that the
uniform respect they have shown me,
their faithful and cheerful discharge
of every task imposed, is highly appre
ciated, and will form a happy link in
memory’* chain, when I look back at
the days we have labored together.
To xiy brethren of the Georgia
FKn I cannot say all that I feel. They
have encouraged me by their expres
sions of good will, and I bavo learned
to love each and every one.
Andlaat,hut not least,* good-bye
to the readers of tho paper, in Albany.
I know full well that a more generous
people can nowhere be found. They
have been kinder tome than I have
deserved, have gratified my every re-
qnest^ andahonldmylotbe cast in an
other field I cannot hope to enjoy a
most unanimous, mutual friendship
than I do In Albany. Good-bye.

Will It Pat an Eud to Sectionalism!
Korth, South, East, West, there was
one outburst of regret and horror that
the Chief Executive of the Republic
had been stricken down in tho flush of
his manhood and his usefulness. The
press of all sections, with one or two
exceptions, respected the general sym
pathy and the patriotic feeling every
where manifested. “Ono of these excep
tions,” saj's the Mew York Mercury,
“was the New York Herald, which,
on the Fourth of July, endeavored in a
leading editorial to fix the rcsposibili-
ly of the murder of Lincoln upon tho
people of tho South by alleging That
“the wretch who struck down the war
President was sc ongpirator who wil- j
fully put m execution tho hellish spir
it ef the rebellion.”
“In striking contrast to such bitter
sectionalism on a day sacred to all
Americans as one of common brother-
hood,’’ says the Mercury, “was pub
lished as news in tho. same issue of the
Herald the broad, catholic, patriotic
editorial of the Montgomery, Ala, Ad-
vertiier, in Which the murderer of
Lincoln was bitterly denounced and
the attempted assassination of Garfield
held up as an atrocious parallel crime !
Mor was tHi* all. Confronting in tho
samo issue the sectional meanness of
the quoted words from the Herald
were accounts of pstrlotio mass meet
ings in Southern cities, without regard
to party or class, denouncing the act
of Guitean, and uniting in general sym
pathy for the sufferer and his family.
The whole South has been moved to
the teaderest expressions of respect for
the President, the warmest eulogin'ms
and the deepest sorrow for his condi
tion. After such an exhibition as that
there it no place hereafter for section
alism. The mcro (notionalist at ail
times is coarse, unfeeling end brats),
but to continne to bo one after tho ca
lamity which has befallen the land,
and in the face of a patriotism unequal-
ed in the world’s history, will be ac
counted’ by decci t men a crime. Be
if henceforth understood and held that
any man, who, by word or act, revives
the dead issues of the past, and seeks
to array one section against the other,
is a rebel against human liberty, and a
traitor, who, if he cannot be punished
under the forms of the constitution
can at least be punished by that moral
and patriotic law which makes such a
being a fit object of contempt and
loathing.”

It ia needless in this address to rehearse

This they can do by resolutions adopt

no attention seems to be paid to bodily
cleanness at nny other time. The
convicts complain of a want of water
facilities in the buildings and stockades
—no opportunity being afforded them
to w’ssh their hands and faces daily.
The food U plain and wholesome, but
' 'nt is made that, at times, it is

ty. The physician In charge resides in
Albany, a distance of twelve miles
from one camp, eight miles from an
other, six from the other, and. we are
informed, Is required to visit each camp
twice a week. The Committee found,
at one of these camps a convict sick,
locked in the building, without a uurse.
and In need of medical attention. The
convicts complain that they arc often
required to do labor, and are puuishcd
for disobedience, when they are physi

The committee find at these camps
colored men employed as guards, and
at two of the camps colored whipping

dens at each camp for the use of con
victs. The Committee were informed
bv those In charge, that Divine services

in by tbe convicts ou the Sabbath day.
At the time we visited these camps

It would seem from all that hts

It comes to us by way of the Augu--
taXeict that Mr. Henry Grady, of the
Atlanta Coiutiliition, will shortly
make a tour of Ihe Mew England States
for the purpose of writing np tho social
and domestic life of the genuine Yan
kee. We are glad to sue this announce-
ment, and hope it is true. Northern
newspaper correspondents have been
traversing tho .South and writing up
our people and section, ever since tlie'
war, and their criticisms have, lor the
most part, been very unjust, and, in
many instance, amounted to sectional
slander. Indeed, it has got lo he so
that no journal is considered first- class
“np North” until it Iras a staff corres
pondent “down South’’ to dish up in
the most approved stalwart style the
eccentricities end post helium circum
stances of the people of the South, tbe
“poor negro,’’etc. In view of this fact
and for other and perhaps better and
more substantial reasons, which might
be given, we have often wondorod why
some enterprising Southern journal did
not send an emissary into New En
gland for tho purpose of giviog its
readers a newspaper view of Yankee
society and domestic life. We imagine
that a true pen picture of Yankee ru
ral life could he made very interesting
to Southern readers, and no writer end
journal in the South are mor* compe
tent and able to furnish it than Henry
Grady and tha Confutation.

Talk about warm weather! If the
comet were to come in oontact with the
earth, the temperature; aecord-ng to Pro
fessor Newcomb, would rise to 10,000
degrees in tbe elude. The Professor
says: “At tbe first contact in the upper
regions of the atmosphere, tho whole
heavens would be illuminated with re
splendence beyond that of a thousand
sums the sky radiating a light which
wonld blind every eye that beheld it,
and a heat which would melt tha hard
est rocks. Tbe highest degrees of
heat that may practically be obtained
in tb* laboratory is thst of the electric
are, which attains a temperature of
10/10) degrees, while, as we have seen,
in it* motion through our .atmosphere,
a solid body may generate a tempera
ture of millioes'of degress. A few acc
ords of this, while tbe huge body was
passing through tha atmosphere, and
the collision at the earth’s surface
would in an instant reduce every thing
there existing to fiery vapor, and bory
it miles deep in the solid earth.’
