That the Commissioner has employed
two clerks at $1,200 each, and two at

funds, when the law authorizes only
one clerk at $1,200. The committee
will report an outrageous violation of
the law in this respect.
Also, on examination of the inspec
tors of (ertilizeri, tbe committee find
that none of them account in full for
the inspection of goano tags pro
vided by the State. One inspec
tor is short 24.000 tags, representing
in fees a large sum of money. If these
tags have been simply lost, unused,
the loss is comparatively small. If
they represent the fees collected and
unaccounted for, the sum is Urge.
Whatever disposition has been made
of them, they are unaccounted for. It
is reported also that tbe inspection of
fertilizers has been greatly neglected
and often giuno passed without in
spection. If this is true, that branch
of the department has been a
terrible fraud on the farmers
of Georgia.. It also affirms that
sotrie of the inspectors at Urge salaries
do not reside in their dutrict at all.

to gather them, bnt perhaps among

be found embodied in the report of
tbe committee. They are still con

carefully, and it may be some time be-
fogpthe committee reports. Should
they discover anything more damag

seem to put the Department in danger
of being abolished and cleaned out.
I understand that members of the
committee are exercised at Senator
Livingston's published interview, in
which he endeavors to forestall the
work of the committee. It was done
without consultation with them. It
does not express their views on the
result of their investigation, and it will
be found as a matter of fact that
the report of the committee will not
couincide with him. Other charges
will come before the committee, which
I will give you hereafter.

The New York Evening Post has
been advocating some very remarka
ble doctrines about the right of la
borers to strike, which have called
forth the general denunciation and re
pudiation of the New York press.
’The question in the present strike,’’
says the Post, is “whether any body
of men ought to be allowed for any
purpose to infiictlossandincovenience
on the public. This is a question to
which the growing complexity of
modern society -will soon compel s
peremptory settlement It [the inter
ruption of business] is something to
which no country will long allow itself
to remain exposed. It cannot allow
strikes of employes in these great pub
lic services any more than it can al
low the corporations themselves to re
fuse to carry on their business as a
means of extricating what they think
fair rates of transportation. No Legis
lature would permit this, and one or
Awo more experiences like the railroad
strike will cause every Legislature to
take measures against the other.
Telegraphers, railroad men, postoffice
clerks and policemen fill places in
modern society very like that of sol-
■diers.’’
In other words, the Post demands
a legislative act from the varions
States, prohibiting the telegraphers
from striking. Of all the wild doc
trines ever advocated by corpora
tions and their organs this is the
wildest, and well deserves the denun
ciation that the New York Herald
applies to it—“unjust and tyrannical.’
The proposition that any man can be
compelled to work lor a corporation
is a doctrine that has been dead ever
since serfdom and slavery died.
The two doctrines advocated by the
New York Tribune and Post, that the
test of wages paid should not be the
value of the services rendered, but
that corpation3 should secure their
lafytr as cheap as possible, and, having
once secured It cheap, and reduced ihe
wages afterward, Ihe employes should
be -prohibited from ever striking, snd
be compelled by law to work on at
starvation wages, would make the

Any law aimed at violence on the

The Indianapolis Hews states the
case very clearly as follows:
For characteristic craft and greed a
new syndicate formed in London by
Englishmen for the purpose of bleed,
ing the Southern States on the old
Confederate debt, is noteworthy. The
mount of that debt is said to be
about $400,000,000. This syndicate
hope to control $100,000,000 of it. The
London stock exchange is signing an
agreement, it is said, that it will deal
only in the certificates issued by this
, Syndicate, snd not in Confederate
bonds. By this means the syndicate
hope to force a more rapid payment in

ASIATIC CHOLEKA.
Rain Water as a Preventative—Re
markable Effects or Its I’ae In Va
rious Epidemics,
P. I. Laplce In New Orleans Times-Democrat.
As it is likely that we may be vis
ited soon by tbe Asiatic cholera, I
wish to inform the people, through
your useful paper, that I firmly be
lieve that rain water kept clean in cis
terns exclusively for cooking snd
drinking water, is a specific against
the cholera. Use the river water for
washing and other purposes.
In 1832,1 believe the first time the
malady visited us, I was a resident of
the city of Natchez with mv family,
and well remember 1 lie panic caused
nil over the United Stales by a letter
written by a physician of New York,
the celebrated Dr. Francis, describing
the pest. We all expected to die,
wlieu a small steamboat ffom Louis
ville landed at the wharf ivilh chol
era. I saw the first man who died of
it at the landing Under tl.e Hilt. The
boat went off and that was the last ol
it She landed in New Olreaiis, and
in a veiy short time it was nil over
the city. Time passed away, and in
trembling a’ xiety wp escaped • at
Natchez on the bill entirely.
I- is well known that no other water
bnt cistern water is used for cooking
and drinking. Not a glass of Missis
sippi or spring water is ever used
there.
A long lime ago Judge Cole, of Fla-
quemine, told me lhai, in 1832, at ihe
time of tba first cholera, his sugar
ho.ise stood back, and his slaves drank
rain water; the quarters being back,
they could riot gel to the'river or bay
ou, aud there was not a case of cholera
among them. The next time the chol
era visited the village he got out of
rain water, owing to a drouth. He
had the cholera badly. As soon as it
rained, and he had rain water, the
malady immediately left the negroes.
The villages and neighboring planta
tions in which river or bayou water
was drank lost many people.
Ori board Ihe ill-fated Arctic, going
to Liverpool, I met a gentleman from
Demerara, that in the British part ol
the colony, tile water of the river be
ing brackish, the English' planters
don’t nse anything but rain water, pre
served in largu iron, cisterns, mid they
never had any cholera; whereas, the
French and German colonist use the
river water, which is good, and Ihey
have at different times the cholera
very badly. He was a resident of the
country a long time and knows all
about it.
This ought to satisfy any person
that the river water carries the germ
of the disease along with it, arid mu-4
not be used. Ir. France, at a certain
elevation, where the water is pure and
freestone, and no lime, the cholera did
not get In Georgia and other pine
wood land, where the water is free
stone and very pure, no cholera ever
did much harm.
New Orleans is well provided with
cisterns, and if they are kept cleansed
and the rain water taken care of and
used for cooking and drinking ' only,
iLa -l _i :n‘ * l , i—i ...
the cholera will not be so bad, particu
larly if other sanitary precautions are
strictly enforced by the Board ot
Health. Respectfully,
P. M. L^pick.
N. B.—I omitted to say that on my
cotton plantations in the parish of Con
cordia I never had a case of tlie choieia
after I built cemented cisterns all over
the fields for the hands. My old friend
Dr. J. S. Cartwright advised me to, do
so.

then, A. Knight, wuo does not pretend to have
the only first-class tin shoo son th of Macon, knuws
