.Veiw (lint Adrertiser:
It is expected ami i* perfectly
natural ihnl every promising town
or city should furnish its quota of
those ever ready to offer a factious
opposition to enterpri<es. whose bene-
ticient effects they might share, and
do share in spile of their aniagonism.
The foregoing sentiment was in
duced by hearing recently the strange
and unpleasaiit prediction indulged,
that the present thrift exhibited on
ttoh is iefeciHie. There is no
ment of propertv, so-ca'led; each
iax|>ayer makes his return under oath
^ind pots a value on hi« property. In
theory there is a provision for assess
ment, if he under values it; but in
practice It is rarely done: the custom
of undervaluing being almost univer
sal. By that means tbe aggregate
return of property for taxation is far
below the real aggregate value of the
property. The inciease of property,
however, has 1x?en marked since 1879
and 1880, even with this imperfect
mode of return. It has betn some
thing under ♦3()0.O00 l 0U0 up to the
present year. This year the ratio of
i »ncr**«se of returns already made,
somewhere- between 800,000 and
900,000 hales. Middle Geoag*a grows
j by far the greater portion of cotton
that is grown in the limits of this
State. It is par excellence the cot
ton-growing section of the State.
The lanas are somewhat thin, and for
that reason we have to resort to fer
tilizers, which are used to an extent
of about 120,000 to 150,000 tons per
annum. The'production of cotton
has lisen from about 500,000 bales
during the year just after the war to
its present sum of 900,000 bales.

The discovery of plant ol great

made at Ton.piin. Tlie leirk of this
plant, it appears, is even “more medici
nal than tluit moly that Hermes once to
wise Ulysses gave,” as it not only cares
hydrophobia, hut leprosy and tlie bites
of .reptiles. Wherever it has been aps
plied in cases of rhe above-mentioned
diseases, ihc cure has been almost im
mediate, hnl, on the other hand, it has
almost proved a violent poison Iu cases
where it was notnpplicalile. The heal
ing virtues of ihc Hoangban, as tlie
plant is called in the Anoniite language,
were, until a short time ago, only
known to a single native family. But
after they were converted to Christi
anity the secret was communicated to
the French. Tlie plant and its mirac
ulous qualities are described at length
ill a work by M. Lesserteur, formerly a
missionary in Tonquui, and now Di
rector of Foreign Missions at Paris.

There are still to be seen in certain

We are reminded that Pestcur
found (hat the earth ill which the
carcass of an animal dead from splen

with active germs, which may be
even carried to the vegetation above
it, so that other animals grazing in
the vicinity may thus be infected
with the disease. Dr. Domingos
Freire insists that burying places are
hot-beds for the growth and dissemi
nation of yellow fever germs, and
demands that the bodiea of all per
sons dead of yellow fever shall be

A Sad Sight.

In wandering tbror.gb the Oconee
cemetery, Sunday afternoon, tte
writer had occasion to witness a sight
I bat was calculated to -almost melt a
heart of stone. Standing upon the
brow of the hill thinking of those
who were buried around us, our eyes
wandered to the gate and beheld ap
proaching a funeral procersion, whicli
consisted of one “dump cart,’’ driven
by a negro, iii which was the rude
coffin which contained the body of.the
child, fallowed by a single woman—
tlie mother. They made their way
to where the little grave was dug be
neath the overhanging shrubbery,
and there, without a minister or a sin
gle friend to offer consolation to the
grief-stricken mother, a couple of
more than $HI0,000worth of,he stock. Uki^

has not been as great since the Expo

comparing favorably with those 01

some of the States had larger exhib

to judge of the best results of the Ex
position are of the opinion that the
State derived great benefits from it.
In fact, there has been an appreeia
tion of prosperitv since that time
over the whole State, but more
marked in the cities. I, my sell, am
very much in favor of these exposi
tions, as lending to develop the re
sources of a State aDd section. Some
of the exhibits of Georgia at the At

in their wealth of' variety and rich
ness as to cause universal astonish
ment; and a I tin. ugh there were no
appropriations passed for Slate ex
hibits at Louisville or Boston, I un
derstand Georgia is well represent
ed. I Irust very much that your
Exposition will be a success, with
which enterprise I am iu perfect
sympathy.”
“Wbat is the financial condition of
Georgia at the present lime?’’
“The general expression is that the
finances of the State are improving
ail the time. The Stale went througli
an era of extravagance during tbe
Republican administration, and there
were irregnlarities in the issue of
boads and expenditures for public
purposes. After the Democrats came
into power they sifted out all tbe.
obligations that had been issued in
the name of tlie State and recognized
all of them.that were issued in ac
cordance with the requirements of
law, and all of them that were issued
even irregularly where the Stale got
the benefit of them, or where the
proceeds of the sale of them went
into the hands of the agents of the
State, or officers of the State, even it
the treasury never received it. The
debt of the Stale in this way was in
creased to almost $11,000,000, which
the State recognized and has paid the
interest upon it promptly- It has
been reducing the principal at the
rate of $100,000 annually, until tbe
debt now is less than $9,500,000. One
of tbe provisions of the State Consti
tution is tliat tbe annual sinking
fund shall never be less than $100,-
000; and besides there is also a pro
vision that all the proceeds of the
sales of public property shall be de
voted exclusively to the payment of
the public debt as it matures. The
Stale has the Western and Atlantic
Railroad, which is under lease, under
a 20 years lease that expires about
eight or nine years hence, at $300,-
000 per annum, payable monthly.
This road is literally valued at
$8,000,000 lo $10,000,000. The public
property of llie Slate, if it were judi
ciously sold, would be made to pay
the public debt off, or near’? off. Iu

“Wbat agricultural advantages
does Georgia posses?”
I suppose there is no State in the
Union that possesses a ~ more varied
soil than the State of Georgia. For
instance,, the productions of tbe sea
board consists mainly of rice, and
latierly of track farming, with small
areas iu cotton and still smaller areas
in corn. The middle belt ol Georgia
is probably more salubrious than
that near the seaboard, and is more
varied in its productions as agricul
ture is now- being conducted,
Through Middle Georgia the pro
ducts are mainly cotton and corn and
smaller grains, such as oats, wheat,
etc. The average production of
corn, take the entire State over, last
year, was about 13 bushels, and I
think the average yield of wheat
was about 9 bushels. The oat crop,
which was an exceptionally fine one
last year yielded about 7,500,000
bushels. The cottou crop was
ing. We are very largely reducing
the corn crop, and largely increasing
the oat crop A great deal of atten
tion is being paid to track farming,
and there is an ever-iucreasing ten
dency toward small farms. Tbe old
system of immense farms acetus to
have had its day, although there is
not much increase itpthe number of
colored people owning farms. In
fact, the labor question is the most
perplexing that we hare in our com
munity.
To show how the agricultural re
sources of the State have been devel
oped, the following figure* are given:
In 1870 there were produced 17,646,-
459 bushels of Indian corn, in 1880,
23,190;472; iu 1870, 1L127.017 bush
els of wheat, and in 1880, 3458,835;
in 1870,1,904,691 bushels of ost^anc
n 1880,5,544,161; in 1870,5.640 bush
els of barley, and in 1880; 19,896; in
1870, 82,549 bushels ot rye, and in
1880; 101,759; in 1870,402 bushels of
bnckwbeat, and in 1880,2.439. Nearly
all of the fruits and vegetables are
grown to fine perfection in some sec
tions of tbe State, and a great indus
try of shipping them to Northern
markets is springing up.”
“How are the manufactories, in
Georgia succeeding?’’
“They are all or nearly all, suc
ceeding admirably. The best evi
dence of this fact ia that more are be
ing started ail tbe time. Although
we.have no statistics on this point,'
can safely say that we have at iesst
forty cotton mills in the State of con
siderable capacity> besides many
small ones, ot which we have no no
tice. These mills have over 300,000
spindles, and are generally in a flour
ishing condition. And there are i
countless number of other manufac
turing industries. The capital in
vested in Atlanta in these other man
ufacturing industries far exceeds the
capital in the cotton mills. Ail the
smaller towns throughout the State
are starting manufacturing enter
prises of every discription.”
“Are tbe railroads of Georgia in
creasing in number?”
“Very much so. In 1880 there
were 2,197 miles of railroad tn the
State, and 1882, 2,421 miles, an in
crease of 224 miles. These figures
include only tbe main tracks. Since
1882 a number of miles have been
added, so it is safe to say there are
nearly 3,000 miles of railroad in the
State. Tbe various roads are as fol

(he State have began to see that tbe
lumber interest of Georgia is enor
mous and is rapidly increasing.
Many men from Minnesota and
Michigan have invested large sums
in the development of this industry,
and are building tramroads at great
expense to tap the main lines. The
turpentine interest is becoming
very considerable one, and has spread
over a large portion of South Ge ir-
gia, where a peat number of hands
are empioyd.

per, gold, slate and marbles ot all
colors are found in the greatest
abundance, and are being worked to a
large extent. The marble through

been recently discovered. There
a great development of the coal„in-
tereats as well as of the iron.
gold mining is being enormously de
veloped; improved machinery is be
ing brought into tbe State, and large
suma are being invested.”
“Are the asylums and prisons of
Georgia well kept?”
“Tea; they are in very good con
dition. In fact, the death rate in
our State Penitentiary is lower than
that of any other State, onlv 22 hav
ing died in a year out of over 1.500.
Tbe State receives an income of $25,-
000 from the Penitentiary. We have
three state asylums—one at Macon
for the blind, for which in 1882 there
was an appropriation of $9,COO; one
at Cave Springs for the deaf and
dumb, for which there was an appro
priation of $12,000, ana one at Mil-
ledgevilie for tbe lunatics, for which
there was an appropriation of $90,-

’Is yoar State doing anything to
secure immigration?”
“Not as much as she ought ; but
there are, nevertheless, a number of
immigrants coming into the State, who
bring with them some capital and
enterprise, and who are always well
received by our people.”
An AlllxsKor Story.
A story comes to us from Citra,
which ssys a neighbor was crossing
the lake the other day when an alli
gator suddenly became entangled in
the cart wheels and was pioned bard
and fast by its revolutions, which
stopped tbe farther progress of the
vehicle. In its fright the ’gator set
up a hideous bellowing, which was
responded to by the unmanageable
ana badly frightened steers. The
driver plunged into the water in dis
may and swim for the shore. The
bellowing of the great saurain mon
ster awakened all tbe alligators in
tlie lake, who charged their lungs to
their fullest capac.tv, and the noise
proceeding therefrom sounded like
the ringing of a million gongs set
afioat on the midnight air, and shook
the very foundations of the earth.
Of coarse, this attracted a great many
of the neighbors to the spot, and the
plunging of the frightening animals
to rid themselves of their unwelcome
guest, and the looks of the bewilder
ed and terrified driver in his frantic
efforts to reach the shore, was ludi
crous and thrilling in the extreme.
does it mean the aribitrery rules bp
which soci ty in particular communi
ties decides to guide tbe walk of
its members in matters of small im
portance. These are purely arbitra
ry, are founded on no particular sen
timent of ideas, and vary widely
with different countries and cotn-
munties. To be sure, they may be,
and often are, lull of shoddy or
sham; their obset vance is usually
insisted upon the more stongly the
more arbitrary they are; and the
freedom-loving individual may feel
•betr demands to be oppressive 'and
distasteful. But for all this there is
a certain necessity of granting obed
ience and of submitting gracefully to
“the conventions.”
Bnt aside from these things are cer
tain absurd ideas that get c infused
in some way with this kindly com
mon sense and these formal rules,
and occasionally get themselves ac
cepted as a portion of that labyrin
thine structure called et quetic. And
by way of illustration we clip Ihe
following from an article answering
the questions of several corespottd-
dents as to what a young lady should
do under certain circumstances
“Another writes to ask us if she
should take a gentleman’s hat and
coat when he calls. Never let him
take care of those. Christisniiy and
chivalry, modern and ancient custom
make a man the servant of woman.
The old form of salutation used by
9ir Walter ltaleigh and other conr-
tiers was always, ‘Your servant,
madam,” and it is the prettiest anc
most admirable way for a man to ad
dress a woman in any language.
Now, we submit that the question
of whether or not a lady shtmhl be
conscious of a gentleman’s hat and
coat when he calls has nothing to do
with the relations between mm and
women. It i- something to be ameed-
able to places and circumstances aud
individuals. Aud as for nian being
the servant of woman, or “the oh:
forms of salutation,” it ia all arrant
nonsense. They should stand on a
ground of equality, wish mutual re
spect and admiration and regard,
each gladly rendering to the other
whatever service is in their power,
and each receiving witb gratitude.
It is the service which kings and
qneens render to each other, not that
which courtiers give to tbeir sover
eigns.
The exaggerated sentiment that
fills such a form of address and such
a manner o r regarding the feminine
sex in reality covers a great deal
more contempt than it does respect
The more a man exaggerates and
talks about the exalted respect in
which he holds womankind the les-
of the real article he has. A insn
who falls in with a system of eti
queue that makes him consider him
self “the servant of woman” may
bow low, with hat in hand, and say
“Your, servant, madam,” but the
more he does it the more contempt
he will feel for her, ms he ought. For
can any manly, self re-pecting nun
abase himself before another person
and see his hollow homage accepted
without feeling contempt for the one
accepting.
Wherefore we say that the only
proper ground npen which the two
sexes can stand is that oi a proud
equality, each sending and reverenc
ing tbe good qualities of the other.

men at Jersey’s fsmons season sea
side resort. The names of the boys
are Henry Gwinn and Hamilton
Crankshaw. They claim to be sons
ot wealthy and highly esteemed fam
ilies of Atlanta. Craukshatv says
that his father knows where he ia,
bnt that Gwinn’s father is ignorant
of his whereabouts. He said that
they became tired of their of the
restraints of home, and concluded
last spring to start out and see t lit
tle of the world. They visited alt Ihe
principal cities of the South, some
times living like princes and at other
times working at whatever they
could find to do. The Prett cor
respondent describes them as fine
looking, intelligent lads, with ap
parently no bad habits. They will
probsbly see enough of the world by
tlie time frost begins to appear and
will seek the shelter of home.
