WEEKLY CONSTITUTION, SIX MONTHS. 51.00
ATLANTA, GA??? DECEMBER 20,1881.
That suicide is prevalent in the lower
animal creation is a subject that has not sug
gested itself to many minds, and yet that
such is the case seems to be now admitted in
some quarters.
The Denver Republican grows somewhat
enthusiastic over the business enterprise and
push of Atlanta and does us the honor of
comparing us to a western town. If the
Republican will just give us a little more time
we will even out-west the west.
MR. MOULTON'S ADDRESS.
If the exposition had done nothing more
than evoke the six addresses in practical
agriculture and manufactures that have been
delivered in Judges??? hall by Messrs. Atkinson,
Loring, Riley, Morcliead and Moulton, this
alone would have been worth all the trouble
and expense the exposition has cost
These addresses have all been admirable,
but we must say that Mr. Moulton???s, which
we print this morning, is in many respects
the neatest, most auggesdive and interesting
of them all. Mr. Moulton has the advantage
of having touched upon matters that apjieal
directly to the popular taste and touch the
popular chord. Where lie has been obliged
to use statistics lie has adapted them so
charmingly that even the lightest reader will
not fail to read his address through and read
it enjoyingly.
In conclusion, Mr. Moulton spoke most
eloquently and said:
I wish It were possible for me to name the names
of all who have assisted to the success of the grand
exposition, and to clothe them with the glow of
gratitude and praise which should surround them.
May the blessing and benlson of heaven cover your
cotton fields with n mantle of white, and gild your
grain fields with a golden halo and enter your
homes to bless you, and go with you to lay the
foundations of your school houses and be with you
in the bu tiding of your churches, and rest upon us
all until we feel the throbs of that perfect brother
hood that will mako your homes and hopes ours
also, and until the north, south, east and west shall
chant together the anthem of a reunited nation???
???The Lord is our Shepherd, we shall not want.
He maketh us to lie down in green pastures and
leadetli usjbeslde the stilj waters "
THE DOO INDUSTRY.
Wo have often been puzzled to account for
the fact that all the arguments brought for
ward in favor of a dog law failed to have any
perceptible effect upon the members of the
Georgia legislature. It is freely acknowledged
that but for the dogs in Georgia sheep raising
would soon become a profitable industry, but
in spite of this the men who are supposed to
be interested in the welfare of the Georgia
farmer refuse to place a repressive tax on the
dog. The dog show now in progress in this
city, however, has solved the problem, and
wo are puzzled no longer. The only wonder
is that the members of the legislature have
not had tho hardihood to publicly acknowl
edge tlso truth. If the curious reader will
refer to tho list of distinguished dogs printed
in The Constitution yesterday, a simple
calculation will convince him that an ordi
nary bob-tailed brindlc cur, whoso pedigree
con be traced down a lane and across a horso-
lot, is worth more than twenty ordinary sheep.
A pointer, with the ability to forage in the
neighborhood and bring homo a chicken oc
casionally is of inestimable value, and a set
ter that ???sets??? in the back yard and howls at
tho mcTon is worth more than the Sunday
breastpin of a hotel clerk. The dogs now on
-exhibition at the dog show are worth more
than all tho sheep in Georgia. One lady dog
and a litter of puppies, if sold for what thfy
.are worth, would buy an improved farm of
???500 acres, nnd 1,250 sheep. All this goes to
show that our legislators are better
informed as to what constitutes true indus
trial progress in Georgia than the newspapers.
A man with two liver-oolored pointers and
a bench-legged whiffet is a millionaire,
and the only wonder is that every citizen
doesn???t avail himself of this simple method of
getting rich. A colored citizen, with a sihgle-
Itarreled shot-gun and a bob-tailed mongrel,
has property amounting to five hundred dol
lars provided he is willing to put his distin
guished mongrel on the market. IVc are in
formed by Colonel Hightower that an attempt
was made to buy a thousand dollar dog. The
offer was refused principally because the
would-be purchaser offered two tortoise-shell
tliomas cats worth five hundred dollars each.
The trade, we are glad to say, was not consum
mated, so that no precedent can hereafter be
set op that one inestimable thousand dollar
dog can be bought with two five hundred
dollar thomas-cats.
We are very proud of the dog show. It has
opened our eyes to new possibilities of wealth.
tVe are no longer iu favor of a dog law. Such
a law, by crippling the dog industry, would
keep our people in a state of abject poverty
so far as dogs aro concerned. We want to sec
the day come when every man is his own
millionaire, and if the prices of dogs keep up
to the present standard that day will soon
arrive.
In boasting of their majority in congress our re
publican frionds are inclined to forget that in those
days of progressive parliamemary^acties a minority
is a very tough affair to fool with.
A MAHONE MOVEMENT IN GEORGIA
All of a sudden, there is a considerable stir
and flutter among tho leaders and organs of
republican opinion as to whoshall be selected
as the Maltone of Georgia politics, and this
stir and flatter have, by some means, been
communicated to those who are not leaders
and organs of republican opinion.- A Wash
ington correspondent of the New York Sun,
for instance, commenting on the result in
Virginia, says that ???in Georgia a similar state
???of things is expected to develop at no dis
tant day,??? and adds: ???The names of demo-
???cratsmore or less conspicuous are men-
???tioned who are expected to take the lead.
Merely as a piece of gossip, this is interesting,
of course, but we think it would be difficult
to find any conspicuous democrat willing to
take tire responsibility of carrying his follow
ing, whether it be large or small, into the
republican camp, as Mahone has done.
Moreover, we feel justified in saying that the
leaders of the republican party will not trust
their programme for breaking up the demo
cratic party in Georgia to one who has here
tofore been an avowed democrat.
Indeed, we are in receipt of private advices
from Washington, from a source tliat may be
deemed reliable, which put an entirely dif
ferent face on the matter. We are informed
that the administration, after consultation
with the republican leaders, has about con
cluded to entrust the work of Mahonizing
Georgia to the bands of Colonel Marcellos E.
Thornton, the well known independent poli
tician and journalist. Our information is to
the effect that the details of this arrangement,
which have been under adviseraent.for several
weeks, are now about completed, and that
when Colonel Thornton, who is nowin Wash
ington, returns to Georgia, he will return
backed by the power and patronage of the
administration, and will at once proceed to
inaugurate a campaign which has already
been carefully planned and organized, and
which has received the sanction of the ablest
republican leaders. The nature of this
programme is of course a matter
of mere conjecture, but there seems to lie no
reason to doubt that Colonel Thornton has
been selected by the administration to take
charge of a movement in Georgia similar in
many respects to that which has made Ma
hone successful in Virginia. Our private
advices from Washington are not lacking in
corroborative symptoms here at home, for it
is a well known fact that while Colonel
Thornton is perfectly able to take charge of
and manage his recently acquired newspaper,
he has preferred to employ the services of an
editor, thus leaving himself free to take the
field in person whenever the proposed cam
paign shall be inaugurated. This, of itself, is,
to our minds, conclusive evidence that Colo
nel Thornton proposes to engage in what may
be termed out-door politics.
There are many reasons why Colonel Thorn
ton should be selected by the administra
tion to head a Mahons move
ment in Georgia. He is the
originator and leader of independentism not
only in Georgia, but in the south. When
Mahone was bossing and bulldozing around
the polls as a -last-ditch democrat, Colonel
Thornton was leading the forlorn hope of in
dependentism in Georgia, and his record in
this respect, has been consistent all the way
through. Defeat has not subdued him, and
the unsympathetic attitude of other so-called
independents has not cooled his ardor. As
far back as 1370, Colonel Thornton was
preaching independentism in Georgia, and it
is more than probable that his influence led
to the little flurry of disorganization which
occurred in two of the congressional districts
of the state. Jealousy and envy are not un
known to politics, amf to these manifesta
tions of the results of human frailty must be
attributed the fact that Colonel Thornton has
not heretofore received from his fellow-
independents the recognition due alike
to liis position and his services. All this,
however, will he changed when Colonel
Thornton, as he is likely to do, returns to
Georgia backed by the favors and patronage
of the administration. The elements of in
dependentism which hove heretofore given
him the cold 6hou???der will flock to his stan
dard nnd be glad to acknowledge him as their
leader.
As we have already said, we have no means
of knowing what Colonel Thornton's pro
gramme will be, but there seems to be no
doubt that he will be selected by the admin
istration to gather up the loose ends of inde
pendentism in Georgia and organize a party
which has for its aim the destruction of the
solid democracy; and the fact that he is fore
doomed to failure will not prevent him from
making an active and a vigorous campaign.
In the meantime, we shall see what we shall
GEORGIA IN CONGRESS.
When the senate met on Monday of last week,
both of the Georgia senators were iu their seats.
Mr. Hill introduced, by request, a bill In relation
to the Venezuela awards. When the house met, for
the first time every Georgia member was in his seat,
and iu the first roll-call, as reported in the Record,
the names of Mr. Hammond and Mr. Stephens are
officially spelled with variations. All nine voted
for Mr. Randall. Wliile;the swearing In of mem
bers was going on, Mr. Hammond objected to the
swearing in of Mr. Van Voorhis, of New York, who
had been very officious in raising objections to the
certificates of southern members. Mr. Hammond
afterwards, however, withdrew his objection, and
the New York member was sworn in.
Senator Brown introduced on the second day of
the session a bill to provide for the settlement of
government accounts with certain railroad compa
nies in the south. Mr. Brown asked to have it
referred to the military committee, but Mr.
Edmunds thought that ???old southern railroad af
fair??? should go to the committee ou claims, and
Mr. Brown acquiesced in such a reference.
On Wednesday, Mr. Brown obtained unanimous
consent to introduce a bill to repay to Georgia $27.-
175.50, money advanced by the state for the defense
of her frontiers against the Indians from 1795 to 1815.
The bill was referred to the committee on claims.
He also introduced a bill to confer jurisdiction on
the court of claims, to hear and determine the
claim of David R. Dillon, of New York. The claim
Is for the use of the steamer Amazon. After a con
siderable tussel between Mr. Brown and Mr. Hoar,
the hill was referred to the judiciary coiAnlttee.
The house met on Friday last, hut soon ad
journed to Tuesday of this week. Mr. Stephens
was appointed a member of the select committee
ou the death of President Garfield. He presented
some papers relating to the claim of Mrs. C. P. Cul
ver. The senate adjourned from Thursday to Mon
day of this week.
If Flipper is crowded ont of the army and Pledger
fails to get an office, the colored brother will begin
to think it is time to start another sympathetic
exodus.
The colored brethren in Georgia now see where
they missed it in not sending a solid Grant delega
tion to Chicago. None of the 306 are to be left out
in the cold.
AT THE EXPOSITION.
FACTS AND INCIDENTS OF THE DAY
NOTED.
A Lively Time at tho Grounds???Award or Premiums
Successful Competitors???Preparing a Recep
tion for Hon. Jaaps G. Elaine-Some of
the Si^ibits???Exposition Notes.
Many farmers say they will plant more com next
year. These are not the intentions of spring.
When the present crop of cotton is safely out of the
bands of the producers prices will go up with a
venomous bounce, and then our gifted husband
men will plow up the com they have planted and
proceed to scatter their cotton 6eed over the face of
nature.
According to Albert Lamar, Cramp stirred red
liquor in the stewed prunes and made the oranges
dropsical with mm during the administration. The
testimony of several well known statesmen goes to
show that a spoonful of stewed prunes and one
orange contained the ingredients of a whole night???s
debauch.
Owing to a series of accidents in the St. Louis
jail .there are now no crimes committed in that
city. This fact furnishes a wholesome suggestion
to other cities. Alter all, it is a comparatively easy
matter to suppress crime.
The Augusta Chronicle proposes this plank for
the democratic platform: ???A tariff, not for the in
terests of a section, but the welfare of a whole
republic.??? Ouresteemed contemporary seems to be
getting down to business.

A. - GRAND RECEPTION PREPARED FOR HIM???A BIG
/ TIME AND A GOOD ONE.
Mr. J. G. Blaine, ex-secretary of state. Is expected
to reach this city on next Wednesday.
A party of gentleman covering all classes of our
business and professional men.and all shades of poli
tics and sentiment met at the city headquarters of the
exposition committee room on Friday night to take
steps toward a befitting reception to this distin
guished visitor.
Tho feeling was enthusiastic and it was deter
mined to make the reception entirely worthy. The
details are. not filled out but the main feature
of the visit will be a superb banquet, tendered by
the people of Atlanta to Jlr. Blaine in Judges' half.
There will be plates for 300 guests and the menu
cards, the table decorations and the banquet itself
will be the most elaborate ever seen in this citv.
Mr. Blaine will be entertained by Senator Hill who
will come south with him. All the time of the ex-
sceretary while in the city will be taken up with
small receptions, dinings, etc. Mr. Blaine will be
accompanied by twelve of the most prominent capi
talists of the north, and it is presumed thev will be
ou the lookout for investments. The details of the
programme will be published iu due time.
Announcement of Awards Made by Director-General
Kimball, in Jo dec.' Halt, at S p. m. Saturday.
The plan of awards adopted by the International
cotton exposition is practically the same as that
adopted by the centennial, which is acknowledged
to have been the most successful and rati-factory of
any exhibition, viz: the careful and critical exam
ination of all exhibits and a speclGc statement from
an expert of the peculiar advantagos of each, and a
certificate of those awarded as the highest, to be
conferred upon successful exhibitors in all the de
partments. For the purpose of encouraging the
collection of minerals and woods, also of agricul
tural products, the executive committee offered cer
tain cash premiums to be awarded, under the de
cision of the judges, to accompany the certificates
of award; also, iu the department of machinery for
(he preparation and manufacture of cotton, special
cash premiums were ottered. One hundred and
twelve judges have been diligently at work'for the
past two weaks in the examination of the different
exhibits. A number of reports have been made
and approved and arc hereinafter promulgated. It
will be observed that in some Instances unusual
excellence and merit was so apparent to the judges
that they have recommended cash premiums, and in
other instances gold medals of various orders. The
exteutive committee have, however, determined to
make no changes lu that respect in the premium
list published, and while they are pleased to note
the recommendations of the judges as evidences of
the great value, beauty and excellence of the ex
hibition and in that reason consent to the present
ing of the reports of the judges as written, thev do
not consent to the payment of any premiums or

lished premium list.

Marldoro, N. J., December 15.???The finding of
the remains of the large sea serpent in the marl pit
of O. C. Herbert at this place last w - eek was supple
mented yesterday by the discovery of the remains of
unother one. The find of yesterday was somewhat
decomposed, and only two large tusks nnd portions
of the jawbone of the reptile were found preserved,
the other bones crumbling to pieces when exposed
to the air. Tlte bones found Inst week are all well
preserved, and the tusks arc remarkable for their
size aud line natural polish. Professor
Samuel Lockwood eives the following de
scription of the reptile: ???It was a mon
ster great of bnlk. 11 hadjtwo paddles well forward
and two behind, the body being short and stout.
The bones of the paddles, from their size nnd so
lidity, indicate extraordinary propelling power.
The tail was stout, long and serpertlne, but a little
flatfish, thus affording great aid iu propulsion by a
sculling movement. The neck was long, and yet
thick enough to support the head high out of water
while the monster was engaged in devouring its
prey. The huge jaws werearmed with tusks which
were more formidable than those of the crocodile.
The lower jaw was very singular in structure, and
had a joint like an elbow. In the act of swallow
ing the reptile could enlarge its gullet by meant! of
this elbow joint. The act of swallowing was ne
cessarily slow, and the reptile nodouht would have
had great trouble in retaining in its mouth its strug
gling prey if it had not been for a supplementary
jaw which was used as a grapnel. This was armed
with small teeth, which were curved in shape and
very sharp. As the large j:lws, with their great
tusks, were beingnpened sous to obtain a new hold
the little grapnel jaw held the struggling prey List,
and the movements alternated until the fish or
other prey was forced down the great throat.??? The
only Doses of this monster reptile of the antedilu
vian age known are those found in the marl pits of
Mr. Herbert, and no name has yet been found for
it by the-scientists.
Tha Agricultural Utovt
Washington, D. C., December 15.???The depart
ment of agriculture reports that the condition of
the cotton crop as reported to the department is
lower than in any season since 1866. The general
average of condition in October, which, with cer
tain limitation, affords the best indication of the-ul
timate product, was in 1866. The-nearest approach
to this fignre in fifteen years was in the short crop
year of 1874. when the average lass was 72. In June
and July the crop was within five points of the
standard of last year, when a revere and general
drought set lu, reducing heavily the
prospect, causing premature development of bolls
an<l arrest of growth. Blight and rust naturally
resulted when the rains came. The second growth
was toe-late to produce much fruit. In additioe to
drought there was loss from boll worms and ranch
more f-som caterpillars. The latter were reported
in the southern aud middle counties of South Car
olina, many -of the western and southwestern
counties of Georgia, eastern and middle Alabama,
river districts of Mississippi, a few scattered tracks
in Louisiana and Arkansas and eastern and
southern Texas. No reports were received from
Tetinesseennd North Carolina. December returns of
product compared with lost year aie as follows:
North Carolina-71: South Carolina, 77; Georgia, 80;
Florida, 92: Abihamu,S3; Missfc-sippi,7:>; Louisiana,
S3;: Texas, 66; Arkansas, 50; and Tennessee 53. The
returns of the condition in October and the yield
per acre, estimated iu November, are more favora
ble than Di-ceaober. The returns of the compara
tive product, which are usually conservative nnd
somewhat lower than the outcome warrant. Toking
the reports of the season together tip to December 1,
the indications point to a crop of abont 4,900.000
hales and a somewhat higher product appears to
be possible.

Messrs. C2arkc and Gajler Have a Disrate over tbo
Keguired Intensity of a Stage Hiss and What

Boards as Food for Fun, Etc.
New York Herald.
The actor's lounging place in Union Square was
the scene of a violent disturbance yesterday after
noon. Mr. George Clarke and Mr. Frank Gayler
-were the cause of the commotion, and they changed
the usual quiet of the place into one of intense ex
citement with the rapidity of a pantomime trick.
It appeurs that bad blood has been brewing between
the two men for some time. It was the outcome of
one of the dramatic failures of the season. Accu
sation. recriminations and loud talk had culmi
nated in a personal encounter. Many actors who
were on the sidewalk were inclined to make fun of
it and turn it to their own amusement, but the
more sensible men of the profession stopped the
quarrel and withdrew the combatants. There was
no ring no pitched battle, there was no swords
or pistols, but some blood was spilt. No doubt It
might have been much more serious had the fiery
ghfdiators been allowed to eonti rue their combat,
and there Is no saying but that a stretcher might
have been needed before they got through, if not a
hearse or two.
In his account of the affair given to a reporter of
the Herald soon u#er It occurred Mr. George
Clarke said: ???Ldrew gore, sir. Yes, gore, copious
drafts of gore, and I would have drawn more hnd I
been permitted. I was attacked unawares, but I
have a quick nerve and stendv hand, so I sailel in
the minute I got the cue. I had only just come ont
of Mr. Palmer's theatre, where I had been playing
'Frou-Frou' with Miss Agnes Ethel for the benefit
of the Poe memorial. She and l u cre tho origiuals,
you know, and I was in capital spirits. Indeed, and
thinking over the time when wo used to play tin-
piece in Mr Daly???s little theatre, which stood
where the Madison Square theatre docs now. All
of n sudden Mr. Gayler interrupted ray re very
b>* a quick attack with a stick, and I returned
the salute on his nose. I continued to ham
mer around the region of that organ until I
wus hauled off, but in the time that I was
allowed I managed to min his appearance, a gold
headed cane, presented to me by Mr. Charles
Dickens when he was in this country, and a clean
pair of cuffs. All this trouble grew out of the Connie
Soogah company. The father of tho young man
who tried to stab me with the walking-caue came
to me last -summer aud proposed a combination
wrtn Barney Williams??? old play and myself as the
star. He represented that he possessed a variety of
acquirements that fitted him out as a most excep
tional manager, and I foolishly entered into the ar
rangement. 1 was not long out before 1 learned
that Gayler hnd none of the qualities he boasted so
much about, aud that he had muddled his business
up so that it was imjiOKsible to get it into any kind
of shape. He took us into forty eight towns in sev
enty-two days, auil .he created dissensions among
the company that finally broke us up. He was not
alone in that latter part of the business. No, in
deed; hcwusabiyand vigorously assisted by the
entire family, including tne bill youth who dev
eloped such an up]>ctite for my vitals this after
noon. ???
???Who supplied the money ????
???I did. 1 lost $1,000 by the operation besides my
time. We were out thirteen weeks, and in that
time we had six different young ladies to piny the
opposite part to me.???
???Was not this your fault????
???No, sir; I did all in my power to make tho peo
ple comfortable and happy, and t appeal to them
whether 1 did my duty as an actor and a gentle
man.???
???Mr. Gayler eomploiued that you introduced too
much kissing iu the business of the play.???
???He did, but he was wrong. 1 introduced no
more than was demanded l??y ihe business of the
play. None of the ladies who played with me wilt
say otherwise, I am sore. I only showed the uudi-
euce what a man would do under certain circum
stances. and I tried to be as natural as possible. The
audiences invariably bote me out in my views and
applau-???ed me generously.???
???Audiences like live scenes as a rule????
???They do, and they like to see them well acted.???
???Miss Jennie Yeamans left because of Mr. Guy-
ler???s complulnts about the kissing, did she not????
???No. sir: she- left because they had refused to
pay the expressage ou a parcel she had received
from home. Miss Yeamans is u charming young
lady???as modest und refined as she is clever us an
actress.???
???It ts reported that there was a good deal of
trouble with you about your mustache????
???That is also without foundation. I cut off my
mustache wsthout a grin when it became necessary,
but I am ready to part with it any time that the re
quirements of my art demand it.- A man docs not
always part with his mustache willingly, i must
con fess to some lingering regrets, but when it comes
to the point I brace myself nnd???shed it.???
???Did any of the six young ladies object to vour
enthusiasm hr the matter of kissing????
???Hold ou; I am not enthusiastic on the subject,
not at all. 1 do it iu the way of business, nothing
more."
???But don't you sometimes regard it as rather
pleasant business?"
???With an actor, sir, it means nothing. When an
actor Is playing a part and becomes lost in the cha
racter, he bus no part In what transpires. He might
as well be kissing an old- man asfa young woman.???
???With the difference of the heard.???
???Weir, yes that might destroy the Illusion and
call a nmn back to himself for a minute, but it
would pass away again Hite a flash.???
???These love scenes look very lute rest! ng from the
front of the house, particularly when the ladles are
attractive."
???Of course; it Is our art to make them so. Pecpte
in front df the house think we are having a tine
time of it, und really we are utterly unconscious of
what ls passing.???
. "\ou never kissed Mr. Gayler in the wav of busi
ness or that????
???No-, sir; nor any member of his family. They
ire not actors, you see.???
"Who is the most artistic kisser on the stage, Mr.
Clarke?"
???I eun???t tell you now, but there is as much differ
ence in stage kisses as there-is in hukeil beojis.???
???Then there was none of this in the Coooey
Soogah company????
???None whatever. Since we-broke up and came
home the Gaylers have been trying to throw out all
eortanf instil nations to annoy the members of the
uumt any. but they are pure inventions.???
