THE WEEKLY CONSTITUTION, TUESDAY, MAKCR 7, 18S2.
GEORGIA GLIMPSES.
LIFE, MANNERS AND HAPPENINGS
IN THE EMPIRE STATE.
A Talk With Colonel Farrow on the Attitude of th
Administration Toward Georgia Politics—The
Medical Colleges—Temperance Baltics—
A Tour Through the Counties.
THE STORMS AND FLOODS'.
From telegrams published elsewhere some
idea may lie formed of the wide extent of the
disasters caused by storm and flood. For
over four weeks large tracts of Mississippi,
Arkansas and Louisiana have been under a
sheet of water. The damage to the crops
must be ruinous. Railroad travel is practi
cally suspended. The disaster of the flood
has been followed hy a destructive tornado,
which, however, did its worst work in Texas.
A TALK WITH COLOXEL FARROW.
Colonel Farrow has returned from Washing
ton, where he had been engaged in fighting
Collector ('lark. He says that the president
is thoroughly enlisted in favor of the liberal
movement in C5eorgia,and that all the patron
age of the administration will lie lent to se
cure the triumph of the new idea. Colonel
Clark was removed la-cause he would not
accept the new order of things. His succes
sor, Mr Walter Johnson, of Columbus, is a
native Georgian, and lias been identified with
the republican party from his boyhood.
Colonel Wade, of Savannah, will he succeed
ed by Louis Pleasants, colored. Colonel Far
row further declares that the independents
will have a full stute ticket, as well as candi
dates in every congressional district and in
every county He counts on capturing seven
out of the ten congressional seats and the elec
tion of a legislature that will send one of the
Markham house caucus to the senate in place
of Mr. Hill.
REDISTRICTIXO THE STATE.
Thero exists a very general desire among
politicians, and the people as well, to know
what action the governor will take concerning
the election of the extra congressman from
Georgia. There are two things which can be
done. The governor can call the legislature
together and have the state redistricted, or
the extra member can be elected from the
state at large.
In order to feel the gubernatorial pulse re
lative to the matter, a Constitution reporter
called at the executive ollice yesterday and
asked Governor Colquitt what his purpose was.
He replied:
“I am waiting for an official copy of the
law as passed by congress and signed hy the
president. I have not made up my mind yet
and will not do so until I examine the law.
I suppose that I will receive the official copy
of the law in two or three days and that in a
week or two I will decide what course I will
pursue.’’

The Russian immigrants who came to Au
gusta some weeks ago arc permanently set

A Chronicle representative, through the kind
ness of Dr. Fox, who acted ns interpreter, was
enabled to interview the men yesterday after
noon. They all have bright, intelligent
faces. Although they have only been in this
country five weeks, two of them can speak

THE WEEK’S REVIEW—FRIDAY, MARCH 3.
New York—The cotton market was more settled
this week, and. while at times the months were snb-
ect to considerable fluctuation, the general feeling
has shown less animation,ar.d the excitement which
characterized the past few weeks as the most active
this season has finally subsided, and apparently the
market is moving along quietly nnd without much
change. The tendency of the market during the
past few days has been upward, and at the close
to-day an advance of about %c is quotable for the
future months. At present a quiet and steady feel
ing prevails, and, although the tone was somewhat
easier in the afternoon, the appearance of the mar
ket has much improved, aud all indications sug
gest an upward movement of quotations. The spot
market has been generally quiet. To day we note
a moderate advance with a better inquiry; mid
dling ll%c. Net receipts continue remarkably
light, and the increasing export demand is rapidly
reducing stocks.
Net receipts for the week ending to-day 51,116
bales, against 59,415 ;bales last week and against
I32,483bales for the corresponding week last year;
exports for the week iCS,722 bales; same time last year
112,151 bales; stock 1,019,162 bales; same time last
year 864,652 bales.
The past few days has developed no new feature
in the local cotton market. During the week prices
were generally steady but firm, and holders have
shown little disposition to sell. Futures have at
tracted considerable attention, but business in this
line was perhaps less active than last week or the
week previous. Receipts for the week ending to
day amount to 1,227 bales, against 1,332 bales last
week and against 1,6S9 bales for the corresponding
week last year.
SATURDAY, MARCH 4.
New York—The.cotton market was unusually
quiet to-day. At the opening futures were steady
and a fraction higher, but immediately afterwards
a weakness was developed which resulted in a mod
erate decline up to late in the afternoon, when the
market again assumed a quiet feeling which con
fined up to the close. During the day a dull and
easy tone was developed, but subsequently and to
ward the close of business the feeling braced up to
some extent. For the day a loss of 5@* points was
established for the future months. The spot market
presents no quotable change; middling lt%c.
Net receipts to-day amount to 6,630 bales, agains
21,036bales last year; exports 12,407 bales; fast year
11,996 bales; stock 1,014,299 bales; last year 868,948
bales.
