It is suggested by a roan from Dooly
county that iierhaps the democrats put too
much money in brass bands. It is melan
choly to think that several hundred dollars
were thrown away on brass bands whin
there were whole battalions of republicans
standing around to be bought. But let us
not recur to these phantasms of a deiolate
past—to drop into the dramatic style of
Mr. Willie Winter.
“It will lie Grant in 1884!" shouts an
excited exchange. 1'umihly, hut the south
will lie very, very busy about that time.
We have such large crops of cotton to look
after and so many industries to foster that,

around the ring by way of preparing for the
t*ilitiral display four years hence.

presidential campaign without any

may say, a tremendous—'victory for this
section if, in the meantime, it shall make

The full votCH of the states corno in
slowly, only thirty having responded,
at this writing. The thirty re
ported states give Garfield 3,014,-
T>Sd; Hancock, 3,733,290; Weaver,
201,512, ami Dow 10,008 volet—a total of
7,!»23^U5 votes. These official footings put
Garfield 1 si,327 votes ahead of Hancock.
Colorado, Indiana, Oregon, Florida, Ne
vada, South Carolina, Tennessee and
Texas are not included in these figures.
The three first named will carry Gar
field’s lead to 190,052, while the five other
tin reported states will bring it down to
the ncighliorhood of 20,000. Tbe vote
of Texas is still an unknown qnantity;
and tbe full official figures must be had

the two men really carried the country,

lwlieved the total vote of the country
will run up to 0,125,000, against 8,455,838

fatnre unless they can break up the
southern democracy. Hence the new
erhaade. Hence the new declarations
that the sooth is again missionary
ground—that a way must be found to
introduce theein “reasonable politics,”
that beinj the new phrase for republi
canism.
Bat having resolved to break into the
democratic southern strength, they are
at a loss to know how to begin. < toe
section, composed in part of Bohemians
who desire employment in the sonth,
proposes to raise a vast fund with which
to support newsoapers and cajole the
people of the sonth into support of the
republican party; hot by far the larger
portion of the party prefer to use the
mailed hand. And here the treaty
of Mentor comes in, if each a
treaty ever had existence, and the natu
ral inclination of the president-elect if it
had not. If the I/vuu of the party are
.to control it, the unseating of democratic
congressman and ail other devices that
power is capable of will be resorted to;
and if the mild-mannered philanthropists
secure ascendancy in the party, insidious
appeals in the guise of “prosperity,”
“public improvements,” and manufac
tures or the tariff will be made. Any
way it seems to be fully determined that
the greatest effort of the Garfield admin
istration is to he devoted to tbe republican-
ixation, if not the Africanization,
the south. The states open to the
first attack prjbably are Virginia, Dela
ware, North Carolina, Florida and Ten
nessee. Perhaps the degree of success
in those states will decide whether or
no an attack along the whole line shall
be made.
The whole business is both idiotic and
hurtful. It will miscarry, while it will
lead to a renewal of the disturbances that
hare acted os a check upon southern
prosperity ever since the close of the
war. All the oid sources of irritation
will be renewed, and the wheels
turned back. The recuperation of the
south will be blocked, and the Bourbons
will be given issues upon which they can
regain all they have of late lost in their
various conflicts with the progressivists
of the south. In every recent pitched
battle between the Bourbons and the
progressivists, the former have been
vanquished; but oiu-e let the new cru-
Kule of the republicans he begun, the
Bourbons will regain their power. This
will not deter the republican leaders how
ever. They care nothing for the condition
of the south. They prefer in fact that ruin
and demoralization shall be it l portion.
But they reckon perhaps tco confidently
on the extent of their ascendancy.
They may control the house, but they
certainty will not control the senate be
fore 1883. Upon the senate and the
sober second thought of the country the
houtli can surely dejiend; and if it is
true to itself there is no need of appre
hension, no matter what the stalwarts or
the hypocrites of the republican party
nay plan and attempt to execute.

Haxcock’a majority in Texas is sup
posed to be about CO,000. Missouri gave
him 55,000 majority. Georgia comes
next with a majority of 40,000, followed
l»y Kentucky’s majority of 43,400. These
ire the banner democratic states.
Tiik girnger? were in session last week
at Waelii. g ton, and every state was repre
sented. Instead of dying out, tbe reports
made to the national grange show that
the order is increasing, and the recent
growth is said to be of a healthy and per
manent nature.
The meu who repudiate Kelly should
furnish the country with a hill of speci
fications. If the man is a traitor to the
organization that has trw»ud him, let it
he known when and wherein the be-
11aval occurred. The charge is boldly
made, and it should be fully sustained by
facts.
The polar wave from Manitoba, or some
other land of unending cold, bos swept
across the country, and the whole sweep
of Atlantic States is now suffering under
it. In the northeastern states there is a
heavy coating of snow, aud navigation
on the canals and rivers is stopped by
ice. In the southeastern states the mer
cury was never Lm.wu to be lower in
November.
The government is now taking a third
census in Sooth Carolina. It may be
that this is the last desperate effort of
the northern tricksters to deprive the
sonth of a just representation, and it
may W that the new count lias been or
dered in order to prevent the ;«ssage of
an apportionment act during the coming
session by delaying the completion, of
the census.
The projected teicure of lands in the
Indian territory by people of Kansas
and Missouri is contrary to justice if not
law, and the government should take
steps without delay to preserve to the
Indians this small part of a domain that
oiu-e In-longed wholly to their ancestors.
The Indian territory offers the one
chance for civilizing and citizenizing the
red man.
I don’t like to leave home. The attrac
tions of my (arm and fireside are good
enough for a man of humility. The old-
fashioned back log in a large open fireplace
b still fashionable in a farmers hearth, aud
I hope it will always be. There's a broad
and cheerful welcome about it that you
don't find round a grate nor a beating stove.
Some folks away up north don't have
either, but warm up the bouse by a furnace
in tbe cellar and pipes running around the
rooms with little openings about and about
let tbe heat in. Seems to me that would
freeze up all my love and tenderness for the
sacred place. No family fireside, no cheer
ful blaz-, no beck-log, no light* ood knot,
coal to pop out on tbe floor, no hearth to
sweep, no place for the children to roast
eggs or potatoes, or tbe good wife to toast a
slice of bread for tbe grunting husband.
The idea of raising a whole paasel of chil
dren round a hole in the door—why I
wouldn't blame ’em for emigrating as soon
as they could travel.
But I Lave to go sometimes willing or un
willing. Farming will support tbe family
pretty well, Lut it won't send the children
off to boarding school nor make up for a
dfead mule, nor the loss of a wheat crop, nor
buy a new carpet, and paper tbe walls, and
get new curtain* for tbe parlor, and ao
fourth, and ao fifth, ar.d sixth, and so on.
Therefore, I have to start out now and then
and swap off a little nonsense fora little
money, and it seems to work pretty weiL 1
waked up the other morning in Augusta af
ter a food night’s rratin tbe sleeper. It was
just splendid—clean sheets and a good bed,
and my thoes blacked next morning, a
good wash and a clean towel all made a
man feel like a gentleman. Somehow I
have a love and veneration for the old
Georgia road, for it is tbe fira: railroad
I ever saw, and the impression
made on my young mind when I saw for
the first time the locomotive coming up the
track at Mad hon will never be forgotten.
George flames and I set up and talked until
we got sleepy and then turned into our
berths. I think he took two but am not
certain., I found old friends in Augusta,
re me something more tbsn a street
ity. General Stovall took me all
over the city, in a carriage, and v.e visited
tbe factories and tbe orphan asylum and
tbe raging canal, and then 1 perused tbe
immense chemical works, where they make
thousands and thousands of “fertile,” as
Co be calls it. My mind was confused and
bewildered as I went from one departmert
to another, ai.d listened to Mr. Lowe, tbe
chemist, as he exp'ained everything to me.
I never aaw so many bones in all my life
and they said the stock was low. Every
thing is dune by rule and measure. They
make their own aadi in leaden chambers as
big as a bouse and the furnace underneath
that burrs the brimstone locks like a little
hell in miniature. What a wonderful busi
ness. Three hundred thousand dollars al
ready invested in a business that was wholly
unknown before the wan Farmers and
dealers tell me that this is the most ratable
manufactory of commercial fertilizers in
tbe United states, and Mr. Lowe can tell
ary farmer what kind of phosphate hi* land
requires if he will send him a sample of tbe
soil. I used to make fun of all this“joaiina”
business, but I was a fool for the want of
sense. I do think though our farmers u*e
too much of it aud don’t make up enough
Compost of their own fertile.
Augusta ia a solid old city. Orthodox in
religion and business, and they are not
sheared about anything and are pretty well
content with themselves. Broad street is
the broadest street 1 eversaw. 1 don’t think
it is quite as far »cro?s it as it is from one
end to the other, but then it’s fur enough to
have a line of street cars a running, so that
a man in a hurry could get across in time
for business. I recken they will have ’em
after while. After a pleasant little harvest
in tbe good old city and a pleasant pas
time with Mr. Walsh and Mr. Randall aud
John Davidson and others, 1 j mrueyed to
the yearling city of Thomson—a nice and
new little railroad town in tbe county of
McDuffie, a county that had the good sense
and judgment to send Mr. Koney to the
legislature. There was the remains of a
Colquitt flag ailoaling from a pole, and I’ve
teen Norwood flags that looked just like it.
I hope they will blow away soon and all
bad feeling and bitterness between our
people will blow away with cm. Let us
stand fast, stand fast by our land and our
oeople, and by tbe blessed memories of tbe
past. Let us quit politics and think more
of religion and business.

THE TEXKE&IEX LEGISLATURE.
Washington special to Cfnciuusti Enquirer.
• Congressman Houk, republican, of Ten
nessee, said to-day in answer to the quee-
tion: “What is the real political com
plexion of the Tennessee legislature?''
“Well, that is a hard question to answer. 1
will s%y th*s, however: The house of repre
sentatives will he controlled by the repub
licans. The senate has a ninjuritv of demo
crats. though mixed; ard by this I mean
the professed t ate-credit democrats, and
repudiation democrat?, when combined
make a majority of about five. Instead
of tbe legislature being republican, tber:
*" - . majority of, I should say, five
joint bailot of demrcratic pro-
cliuities when elec led. But I do
not mean by this that they will con
tinue in tbe bourbon grove. My judgment
is that there are men elected both as so-
called state credit ami so called low-tax
democrats, who are now inclined since the
election aud the failure of Hcncock, to
accept the inevitable, and while not deciar-
iag themselves republicans, at tbe same
time acting for the best and rapportitig tbe
administration of Garfield, ar.d of such is
to come the regeneration of the soudi, a* I
verily believe.”
“But what will be the position of these
men on the senatorial question?'
“Logically they will be led to support Mr
Maynard, or some other republican; and
Mr. Maynard will undoubtedly command
tbe support of hi* party. What I expect.
and wish, teems to me most probable, is
that enough of those members nominally
called democrats, and ostensibly such, will
vote with the republicans to give us an
administration senator."
“You are sanguine, then, of the election
of a republican senator from Tennessee?"
“Well, yea; I am sanguine of the election
of a republican senator, acd still the balance
of power in that election will not be on ac
count of his republicanism, but his admin-
i stratum ism, if that phrase is allowable iu
politics."

New York Herald Nevada Letter.
Mr. Daggett, when asked for an inside
history of the fight in Nevada said that the
contest was really between the bank of Cal
ifornia and tbe Bonanza firm—$20,000,000
against $100,000,000. Mr. Mackav was
pressed to take the nomination for the sen-
atorsbip, aa he was a member of the nations!
committee, but be declined in favor of his
partner, Mr. Fair. The weapon that wa*
brought to bear agairst Senator Sharon was
the fact that although he bad been for s-x
years a senator, he had not beeH for six
nays m the senate chamber. Tbe effect of
Sharon’s running was to throw Nevada into
the bands of the democratic party.
Reporter—What is the wealth of the
Bonanza firm?
Mr. Daggett—No one knows. Mr. Mackay
owns two-fifths. Flood on -fifth, Fair one-
fifth and the estate ot O’Brien one-futh.
They took out of one mine alone $111,000,

from $00,000,000 to $80,000,000. He is a b

THE PARTNERSHIP DISSOLVED.
Washington, November 20 —A southern
gentleman now here, attending the annu*.
session of the national grange, ?s reported
by the Star rs having said:
“Tbe (.outbern people are done with the
rorthern democracy. We will never go
i«to another campaign with northern dem
ocrats. In the south now there is no poli
tics. You don’t bear politics talked be-
youd tbe expression that tbe p<ople are
glad that Garfield is elected, a.:d that is tbe
truth. The |»eople of the south intend to
look out for t Itemrelves hereafter, and let
the northern dtmccrafs take care of them
selves."

We all remember the fable of the mice
in the field. When the vonng mice told
the mother mouse tliat they had heard
the farmer aay tliat he wan going to get
hi? neighlnirs to cut the wheat, she mid
there wo? no use in moving. The
«lay they rej>orted tliat he said he was
going to get his friend? to cut it. She
►till did not move, lie next said lie would
get hia relatives to do it. She still did not
move. He then said that he wonld cut
it himself. “Now, mr children,” said
the wise old mouse, "it U time for ns to
move’”

On Friday Mr. James W. Nagle and Mr. J. W.
Ryckman, oi Philadelphia, dropped into The
CossTmmox office. The gentlemen are pub
lisher* of the “Textile Record," the
only paper iu tbe United States de
voted to the cotton manufacturing trade. They
come to Atlanta for the purpjae of organizing the
cotton exposition and getting It into shape. They
have spent two or three week* travelling through
New England, and founding manufacturers on
the subject of the exposition. They find an
unusual interest taken in tt on ell side*, and it is
at the request of leading spinners and machine
men that they come south for the purpose of
pushing the exposition ahead. They bring the
very highest testimonial* and come as business
men and not it adventurer*. They have a plan
of organization vrhkb they wi l submit to our
people. They agree to take tf.OOO worth of stock
themselves, and to get much more taken In the
airth. They arc gentlemen of character and
position, pay their own expenses, and Mmply ask
a fair and Impartial hearing.
We present herewith an interview with Mr.
Ryckman, which gives the general points of the
plan they propose for the exposition, and we ask
for it a careful reading:
“Is there much interest iiorth in the proposed
x position?”
“There certainly is. Since Mr. Atkinson, first
laid hi* plan before the people we hare made
quite a canvass of this subject in the manufactur
ing cities of the northeast, and I say undei stand
ingly that no enterprise of reoent development
has attracted such widespread and earnest atten
tion among oar people. We could not have been
persuaded to come here in the interest of this
event if it were not for the unmistakable evi
dences of favor manifested by our manufacturing
and merchant classes.’’
“What point do northern manufacturer’« pre
fer?" ^ f
Well,as t^reSliou they agree with Mr. At
kinson that the exposition should be held here in
Atlanta. The choice of Atlanta is a wise one, if
the people of Georgia and the south will take up
the matter with the energy they usually show
when fully aroused upon any subject Cotton is
the natural product aud the pride of tbe south.
All that attaches to it is your right btlore oiler
claimants. We believe, in the north, that while
this is in every sense a national project, and will
benefit, more or lea*, all sections aud all classes.
It Is a matter the people of the south should han
dle for themsel ves, assume the chief responsible
ties, lor throughout, and .from which they should
derive the substantial results.’’
“Whatadvantage would the exposition be to
Atlanta aud the south?"
“Upon that point there can be but one convic
tion. The most valuable service that can possibly
he conferred upon all the interest* connected with
cotton, at tin* time, will be the holding of this
exposition, a he people of the United State* have
a great common interest in the growth, marketing
and manufacturing of cotton, and the exhibition
will be the most effective agency to demonstrate
this fact It will bnng the planter and mahufac-

What “Gath" Has to Say About a
Mexican Railway.
New York, November 20.—Within two
years tbe Cincinnati merchant can go to
tbe City of Mexico in three days or less.
Tue money is all up to build an air-lire
from Denicon, Texr*, to Camargo, 5'. j
miles, which is on tbe Rio Grande river,
and there tbe river is to be bridged and tbe
rail-oad pushed GC0 miles further to Mexico,
the capital. Tbe disuiuce from Toledo to
the City of Mexico by Gould’s system of
railroads, via Hannibal, Sedalia and Deni-
so.i, w ii be 2 f t<) miles Cincinnati Das a
much shorter line than this by way of Cairo
aud Little Rock; but Gould ia a^id to be
going to buy Tom Allen’s railroad Senator
Chatxe says io; but the southern railroads
make abominably bad time, and the Cin
cinnati road connecting with New Orleans
will ultimately cany northern lime taoles
into the south. Camargo is about one
hundred and twenty-five miles west of tbe
culf. and almost due south of San Antonio.
Tbe line from Denison to Camargo will pass
through Austin, and possibly may deflect
to San Antouio; and thus Jay Uouid is
going to be tbe successor of Cortf z, and the
Mpntexamas, and Santa Anna.
The Atcblsoa. Topeka and Santa Fe rail-
road is in the field f ir a line to Mexico,
running from that city to El Paso, 1.000
miles long. Tbe American company is now
’within 100 miles of El Paso. About 2G0
miles of tbe road -rets a Mexican subsidy of
$15,000 a mile T^exe is also t railroad
which will be finished next year from
Guaymas to Arizona, which hr? aiubsidy
of over$15.0C)a mile. Some think tba
El Paso will be tbe greatest lailroad centre

A CUSTOMS ISEIZUHE.
A Bay Run*
New York, November 27.—Ulrich Tjarks
late qnartermater and now 3d officer of
Pacific mail steamer Acapulco, just arrived
in port was arrested last evening ou tbe
street by customs inspectors, charged with
smuggling goods, ana four bottles of hay
oil was found in his possession. A search
was made of the vessel to-day and re-ulted
in tbe discovery of eighteen more bottles,
which were also seized. Tj*rks was tiken
before the U. $S. cotunifesioner when he
waived examination, aud was held in $1,500
bail for action of tbe grand jury. The oil
is manufactured by S. DeTa^cher, distiller
at 8L Thomas, West Indies, ar.d the import
duties are fifty cents per ounce. Ea<;h bot
tle contained „w enty-iwo ounce?, aud one
ounce will make a barrel full of what is
called bay rum. The customs inspectors
say that despite their surveilaqce over ves
sels coming from SL Thomas thousands of
dollars worth of this oil is smuggled into
this port, and it can even be bought in
the market at considerably lets than the
cost of importation. It is understood an
other libel will be filed by the district at
torney against the Acapulco.
The events of tbe post few days have quickened
the Interest in the Georgia Western rood to a
wonderful degree.
In response to a great many requests, aud in
accordance with a programme agreed on. we had
determined to oaU a meeting of all person* inter
eated in the building of the road, for Monday
night, at the representative hall. We received
from Mayor Calhoun the following card, which
we publish and indorse with pleasure:
OK0EC.IA WKSTKON RAILROAD.
Mayor's Office, Atlauta, Ga., November 27,
lsso —The present scarcity of coal in this city ha*
demonstrated the necessity for some definite ac
tion in reference to the building of the Georgia
Western railroad, and in order that it may be
fully oon-idered. I hereby call a meeting olour
citizens at the hall of the chamber of commerce
on Monday next the 29th instant, at 10 o’clock
a.m. for that purpose. W. L. Calhoun, Mayor.
It is probably better that the meeting should be
held at night, but we yield to tbe suggestion of
the mayor aud call the meeting as suggested In
his card.
let the work ee started.
There is no doubt in onr mind that the road
can be finished and equipped a* Saraa thirty
miles with the money raised in Atlanta by private
subscription. We believe that 8250,OCO can be
raised hew without any serious trouble. If the
road is only built and equipped for thirty miles,
we feel sure that plans can be devised for poshing
It further.
There is absolutely no hindrance on account ol
the charter. Thanks to the determined and hon
orable position taken by Mr. Lockhart—to whom
the people of Atlanta owe everlasting gratitude—
and the fair conduct of General Alexander, the
city is iu much better fix than It has ever been
on this point. It does not even have to pay 850,
000 c?sh to get the charter. That money has been
token by a rich corporation that now puts it in
•ud takes stock in the enterprise in full payment
Consequently there is no trouble In this regard.
If Atlanta will only do her duty, all will be well.
Below we print some interviews with the people
ou this subject that will prove interesting:
A Constitution reporter called upon Mr. H. I.
Kimball, president of tbe cotton factory, in rela
tion to the coal famine, when the lollowiug con
versation took place. In auswei to inquiries, Mr.
Kimball said:
“We have not yet been short ot coat at the
factory, though we have had to watch the matter
very close to prevent others from getting the cool
that was shipped to us. We have supplied
help with what they required, and intend to look
for them as well as ourselves,
regard to the cause of this scarcity of
cozi and iis remedy. I have not looked into it
sufficiently to be able to form an intelligent solu
tion. My brother, J. C. Kimball. 1* much better

and 1 notice you tuul a talk with him ou the sub

the building of it is quite another question,
