How ibe ChlncM Work.
The editor of the Centreville (Texas) Experi
ment lately Lad a look at the Chinese laborers
employed on the Central Railroad. He says
Tj ey seem to be industrious, tractable workers,
and give entire satiataction to their employers.
At the time we visited them, a keen norther
was blowing, and an overcoat lelt very comfort
able. Mr. Chinaman was habited in the lightest
kind of cotton goods, snapped his fingers at the
weather^ccmed no wise uncomfortable,and was
working like a Turk, or a Chinaman. We
observed several freedmen looking on, wonder
ing at the stupidity of the foreigners, who could'
aflerd to work at all, much less in such weat her
Watklnsion Special Dispatches.
Our "Press Telegrams" from Washington
contain such brief accounts of what is passing
in the Benate on the Georgia bill, and feeling
that our readers take a deep interest in whatever
transpires there concerning it, we lay before
them this afternoon the ipecial dispatches re
ceived by the Era last night. In them, among
other interesting (?) items, we notice a compari
son drawn by Senator Morton between Jeffer
son Davis, and the present negro Senator lrom
Mississippi, the Hon. Mr. Revelt. God help the
country when such comparisons are made in the
Senate of the United States, without subjecting
the party making them to public denunciation
Special Dispatch to the New Era.
Washington.
Washington, March 16.—The debate on the
Georgia bill was continued in the Senate to-day
and opened by Senator Revels, of Mississippi,
who delivered, from manuscript, a carefully pre
pared and very able speech. The manner ot
its delivery was modest and effective. Tnc spec ch
occupied about half an hour, and was followed
by Governor Morton, who, in complimenting
Ibe speech of Senator Revels, said : “ The able
addre-sa to which we have listened, gives ample
evidence to the Senate and lo the country, that
nothing has been lost in intelligence, but much
has been gained in loyalty and patriotism, by ex
changing Jeff. DaviB for the present Senator lrom
Mississippi." He then continued an elaborate
argument in opposition to the Bingham amend
meat. He riddled the sophistries of Trumbull
and Edmunds, and ably sustained the action of
the President and General Terry, and establish
ed the legality of the present organization ol
the Legislature of Georgia. The position taken
and argued by Governor Morton is. that un’il
the Stale is by Jaw admitted, and the Senators
and Representatives of Georgia sworu in, the
Government is provisional, and rests exclusively
on the Reconstruction Acts, that, when the
State is so admitted, it rests exclusively on the
new Constitution, and the term3 of office will
be controlled by that Constitution dating lrom
the time of such admission.
The Senate then went into executive session
at lOj o’clock.
The delegation of colored Senators and Rep
resentatives, from Georgia, had an appointment
with the President at half-past 11 o’clock. The
delegation was very courteously riceived ana
their remarks were listened toby the President
with great attention. In the course ol his remarks,
the President said that he had talked with several
of the Senators and he was of the opinion that
the Bingham amendment would be stricken out.
The debate on the Georgia bill w ill probably
occupy the balance of the week.
SECOND DISPATCH.
The following is an extract from the speech
of Senator Revels of Mississippi:
“Mr. President: I maintain that the past re
cord of my race is a true index of the feelings
which to-day animate them. They bear to
wards their former masters no revengeful
thoughts, no hatreds and no animosities. They
aim not to elevate themselves by sacrificing a
single interest ol their white fellow-citizens.—
They ask but the rights which are theirs by God’s
universal law, and which are the natural out
growth and the logical sequence of the coudi
tion iu which the legislative enactments of this
nation have placed them. They appeal to you
and to me to see that they receive that protec
tion which alone will enable them to pursue
their daily avocations with success, and enjoy
the liberty ot citizenship, on the same footing
with their white neighbors and friends. I do
not desire simply to delend my own race lrom
unjust and unmerited charges, but I also desire
to place upon record an expression of my full
and entire confidence in the integrity of purpose
with which 1 believe the President, the Congress
and the Republican party will meet these ques
tions, so prolific with weal or woe, not only to
my own people, but to the whole South.
In speaking of the lives that have been taken
he said : "It those quiet resting places ot our
honored dead could speak to-day, what a
mighty voice, like to the rushing ot a mighty
wind, would come up from those sepulchral
homes! Gould wo resist the eloquent pleadings
of their appeal? Ah, sir, i think that this
question of immediate and ample protection lor
the loyal poople of Georgia would lose its legal
technicalities, and wo would cease to hesitate
in our provision for their inslaut relief. Again,
I regret this delay on other grounds. The taunt
is frequently flung at us that a Nemesis more
terrible than the Greek persecution of the anger
of ihe gods, awaits her hour of dire retribution.
We are told that at no distant day a great up
rising of the American people wil! demand that
these reconstruction acts of Congress be undone
and blotted forever lrom the annals of legisla
tive enactment. I inquire, sir, if this delay in
affording protection to the loyalists of the State
ot Georgia does not lend uncomfortable signifi
cance to this boasting sneer with which we so
often meet."
Jtffcnoa DavU a Gum*.
The New Orleans Picayune says that the most
honored guest at a recent social gathering in
that city was the Hon. Jefferson Davis, who has
lost none of the graces of manner and brilliancy
of conversation for which he has ever been dis
tinguished.
Georgia Patents.
The following patents were granted to Geor
gia inventore up to March 5th : Abner White,
Macon, hook lor harness ; John D. Dunn, Grif
fin, combined cotton chopper and cultivator; E.
P. Cook, Cart»T8yille, head rest; J. T. Molkey,
Walton’s Ford, ointment for bruises and burns.
The State Debt of Virginia.
The debt of Virginia is a huge one. Includ
ing interest due aod unpaid, amounts to $45,-
872,778. The assets are nearly as much, but are
not available, and the Governor thinks only
about $12,000 ol them ever will be, but he says
the State can commence the payment of interest
on her public debt by July 1,187L
A Heavy Washing Bill.
The account of the incidental expenses of the
Treasury Department, which has just been sent
into the House of Representatives by Secretary
Boutwell, contains a remarkable charge. It is
the item for towel washing. He states that the
number that underwent this cleaning process
was upwards of thirty thousand, and that the
amount expended for the purpose exceeded
eighteen hundred dollars.
Large as the sum is, it ought not to excite
much surprise. There is much filth in the
Treasury Department, and towels are absolutely
necessary thereto the almost army corps in point
of numbers that labor iu tbat huge and impor
tant department of the Government.
The Lofs of the Golden Citv.—Further
details of the loss of the steamship Golden City,
on the coast of Lower California, are received.
The liight of the passengers when it was
known that all hope ot saving the ship had been
abandoned was dreadful; women were calling
tor their husfonrls, children screaming lor their
mothers, and others praying God to save them,
in manner beyond any adequate description.—
Presently the third mate came lorwsrd and be
gan pulling the pile of life-preservers asunder.
In less time than it takes lo tell it, the heap was
cleaned off to the floor. In the confusion such
havoc ensued tbat more than half the coveted
articles were rendered useless When the fog
cleared it was found that the ship was but half
a mile from shore, and when it was finally de
termined to take to the boats, the first officer
apt eiiled to the male portion of the passengers
to behave like men ; to stand by him until the
women and other children were safely landed,
threatening to shoot any one who at
tempted to get into the boats till that was
fully accomplished. When they put off many
teared that they would meet with loss in the
angry breakers that were roaring around them.
Every danger, however, was soon overcome,
and, with grateful hearts, the bulk of the pas
sengers reached the shore. The boats landed
their human freight without accident. The little
raft, manned by the Chinese crew, was then put
into service, and by 11 o’clock, four hours from
the time she struck, the passengers were all
lauded. After remaining ashore four days, all
hope of rescue by any passing vessel was given
up, and the sufferers commenced their weary
journey to Santa Mar>a. The direct road to the
point of deliverance whs not definitely known,
some supposing _it to be over the point of the
mountain, while others chose to go inland and
around its base. Many walked barefoot in the
hot tand, and their suffering from the piercing
rays ot the sun was intense. Nine perished the
first day ; the march was resumed the next day,
the party reaching the steamer Colorado, which
lay at the head ot the bay, and were conveyed
in safety to San Francisco.
“ Poor Charlotte.”—The unfortnnate em
press ot Mexico, the widow of Maximilian—
“ Poor Charlotte ”—is yet residing in Tervueren
Castle, and has still but very le v light moments.
She is strictly watched, and her keepers hardly
venture to allow her the former long prome
nades ia the park, as she has more than once
endeavored to elude their vigilance. Even a
short lime ago, they had the greatest difficulty
in preventing her from galloping off on the
horse ot a soldier who had just brought a dis
patch to the castle. She was always passion
ately fond of riding, and Oberst Van de Velde,
one of her attendants, was compelled to ubc all
his authority, to hinder her from carrying out
her intentions In Tervuerea is a telegraph
ic bureau. There the unhappy empresB
spends a great part of her time in
sending messages to all the European
sovereigns, to whom she bitterly complains of
her close imprisonment. These telegrams are
always for warded to the court at Brussels, and
Charlotte never quits the bureau until she has
received an answer. One of the strangest
symptoms of her derangement is, that she will
nevtr sit at table to take aDy meal. She has her
dinner served on a small night table, and the
officer on guard must eat by the fireplace. She
still holds last to the idea that some one intends
to poison her, and each dish has to be tasted of
in her presence before she will consent to touch
it. Her nights are very restless; only toward
morning she enjoys a lew hours’ sleep. The
physicians have given up all hopes of ever being
able to restore her to reason.
The Romiuce of a Newsboy.
The Boston correspondent Jof the Chicago
Journal tells the following:
Years ago, about the time the war broke out,
one ot the shrewdest newsboys that ever sung
the song ol the bulletin board or peddled the
extra, managed to get down into Virginia
with a Massacuusetts regiment, Rud finally con
trolled the exclusive sale ot New York and
Boston papers in the wake of a sutler. He
was fifteen years old at that time, but he had the
bU6iuese capacity oi a merchant’s clerk. All he
needed was opportunity. ^.Bi at ns was his capital,
ior the mo6t part. In the course of a year the
boy had accumulated $2,700, which he invested
in tobacco and ciirars, and smokers’ goods cen-
crally. Being a clever, accommodating boy, he
made friends with everybody, and consequently
did a thriving business. Alter a while lie got
out of the tobacco business, and went to Wash-
ington, where he hung out his shingle as a grocer,
in a small way, and havingau extensive acquaint
ance among the Massachusetts soldiers, and
knowing almost every officer ol note, he estab
lished a large trade in the way of furnishing
luxuries, etc., for officers and their friends, and
finally his place became a sort of headquarters
lor the outfit tor sutlers. When the war closed,
and after Grant and Lee held that memorable’
contab under a certain aople tree, our newsboy
found himself good lor $30,000 or 40,000 But
he did not leave Washington with the return ot
peace. He lingered there until profits were
small and trade was on the wane, and when he
did leave lor Boston ho.brouglit home with him
the In art of a young heiress, which he had the
year belore attacked, and which had capitulated
to him. The events which had rendered the
young lady an heiress were fraught with sorrow
When she was but a helpless, wailing baby, her
mother fled her home and child, and was
divorced. Her only brother a wild but high-
spirited youth, shocked at his mother's conduct,
put to sea in a merchant vessel engaged iu the
China trade. The vessel perished, and the crew
were never more heard 'ci. Her lather, whose
sole heiress she now was, sent the young ladv
to a lasbionable boarding school (it was the year
the rebellion commenced,) where she remained
until the completion of her eighteenth year.
She had learned to sing, dance, play, and diess
fashionably, and was well acquainted with the
names or natures of patriotism, beneficence
social duty or moral responsibility; and life
seemed to her a gorgeous banquet. She went
to Washington with Iriends, hoping to captivate
some young and brave, affluent and noble man
m the career of fashiouable lile, when she was
met by the perambulating Boston newsboy, w ho
proved himself as shrewd in love matters as he
had been in business affairs. It is unnecess iry
to add that the intelligent glances ot a pair ot
the handsomest hazelj eyes in the universe
reached down into the palpitating heart of the
heiress, and after a while, to make a long story
short, the epistolary correspondence conveyed
by Uncle Sam’s mail bags between a certain quiet
town in Maryland the Boston postoffl.e was
increased, nor was it diminished until the w two
souls with but a single thought, two hearts that ,
beat as one," were made man and wife. The i lliat 1115 cro P was very promising. He plants on

JonN Trippe.—It becomes a painful duty to
record the death of this old and highly esteemed
gentleman, whose pleasant relationships with
the people of this section of Georgia for more
than a hletime, endeared him toa large circle ot
Iriends and relatives. “ Father Trippe,” lor so
he was called by old and young, relatives and
Iriends, reached the great age of ninety-four
years and ten months, having been born in June,
1775, just before the Declaration ot American
Independence. -
His recollections of the incidents of childhood
were vc‘ry distinct up to a short time before his
death; among the earliest ot which was the de
feat ol Gates at Camden, S. C., and the retreat of
his army by his father’s residence. Mild and
gentle in his manners, warm and sincere in his
friendships, consistent in his professions, he was
a type of the Christian gentleman, to be honored,
respected and loved.
For several months before bis death, Father
Trippe had beeu a great sufferer. It was his
misfortune to la)! from his piazza and fracture
his leg, at the same time dislocating or sprain
ing his ankle joint. These injuries were the
prime cause ot his death, which occurred on
Friday inomiug last at ten o’clock. He died
peacefully, in lull possession ot his intellectual
faculties, aud with an abundant assurance of
eternal rest beyond the grave. His life went
out, “as sets the morning star, which goes not
out behind the darkened west, nor hides ob
scured amid ihe tempest of the skies, but melts
away into the light ot heaven.”—Eatonton Press
& Messenger.
Agricultural—Broom Corn.—Under this
head, we venture to say something on the sub
ject ol Broom Corn. Iu our community, it is
considered as a matter of small consequence.—
In our exchanges, however, it is magnified into
a matter of some importance. Broom Corn, in
many of the States ol the Union, constitutes a
commodity of vast interest in the agricultural
productions ol the country. Some farmers have
appropriated a 'a^ge portion of their lands to
the production of this article. The yield is rep
resented to be from $50 to $100 per acre. This
yield exceeds in value what can be raised by
cot’on or corn in our section of the State. The
process of cultivation, is the same as that of In
dian corn.
The manner of harvesting is to cut the stalk
some six or eight inches below the head. This
should be done belore the heads are fully ma
tured. They should then be spread out to dry,
after which process they will be fit for use. In
large manufactories they have a steam engine,
by which the seed is rapidly separated r rom the
beads. Time was in Georgia when cotton was
as insiguificant an agricultural production as
broom corn is now, yet it has become the great
staple of our State. “ Despise not the day of
small thing?.” We have a broom factory in our
city, but it is comparatively dormant upon this
great interest We want a multiplicity of agri
cultural productions and everything added to
this common stock will be a public benefit.
Wheat.—This is a subject in which our peo
ple are all interested. From our exchanges in
every direction, we receive encouraging ac
counts of the present crop. Judge C. C. Green
was in our office yesterday, and informed ns
Terrific Hurricane at Tuskeoke.—From
the correspondence of the Montgomery Adverti-
ssr, we learn that on the 12th ot March, a terrific
hurricane visited the village of Tuakegm, *1*
The storm came at first from the Southeast, and
then moved round to the West, and raged with
terrific power. It will be remembered we
had a severe storm ot rain here at the «««»
time. Fences were blown down everywhere,
scarcely a place left with perfect fencing, trees
were uprooted aod thrown across sidewalks,
streets and houses, and several out houses were
entirely destroyed. Several public buildings
were more or less unroofed. But strange to
say, though wreck and ruin are seen every
where in the town, yet no one was killed or
seriously injured.
Freshet in Savannah River.—We learn
from the Augusta Constitutionalist, tbat the
rain-storm of Friday and Saturday last did net
result in the general overflow of the city.—
During Saturday night and Sunday morning,
the river continued to swell in volume, un
til 2 p. m., on Sunday, its greatest height was
attained at 30 feet, 6 inches, the highest point
reached since 1865. The greatest damage report
ed within the city limits resulted in the
washing ot the crossings, and the loosen
ing of bridges, to repair which will require a
considerable cost for labor and material. We
sympathise with our sister city, in the loss she
has sustained by the late freshet
Education.—While Atlanta claims to be ma
king rapid strides on the road to prosperity, she !
certainly can make no boast of any institution
of learning olsnch a character as would do cred
it to a large city. The question of removing
Oglethorpe College to this place was recently
agitated, aud indeed, carried so far tbat it only
needed a few thousand to secure a prize thus
held out to our grasp. As yet, the necessary
amount has not been subscribed, and there are
doubts as to whether or not it will come in
time. Our people, in the struggle through
which we have but just passed, should have
learned the folly of hoarding up money for pos
terity, for in almost the twinkling of an eye, the
fruits ot the toil of years was swept away. In
giving education to their children, they give that
which cannot be taken away, and which, in any
and all circumstances, is a blessing and a profit
to the possessor. As a general thing, better
advantages are presented to the rising genera
tion of negroes than whites; and if we lie su
pinely upon our backs and see negroes attaining
a higher degree of mental culture than we give
our children, we can neither be surprised nor
aggrieved in times to come, if they excel them,
and occupy the places we claim that God has
peculiarly fitted to the Anglo Saxon race.
Judge Starke—A Reminiscence.—In want
of something better we beg pardon lor intro
ducing to our readers the following anecdote,
related to us by our old friend Judge James
Starke,now dead, and no doubt gone to Heaven.
Some years ago, early in the morning passing
along Hill street in the city of Griffin, we met
Judge Starke. He had in his hand a large blue
bucket, filled with eggs. We hailed him, and
asked why he was buying eggs by the whole
sale. As every body knows who was acquaint
ed with him, he was a walking volume ol anec
dotes. In reponse to our reply he related the
following anecdote. A man whom we shall
call Gnan8, bought a barrel of whisky and car
ried it home. Some days afterwards, one of his
neighbors named Rainwater, bad a case ol sick
ness in his family, and needed a little spirits for
family use. Rainwater took his jug over to
Gnann’s, and asked him to sell him a gallon of
whisky. Gnann replied that his wisky was out
Says Rainwater, you bad a barrel of whisky a
few days ago, where is it all gone ? Gnann re
plies, “ Umph,” what is a barrel of whisky to
such a family as mine, when we’ve got no milk
The Judge with a big laugh said, what is
bucket of eggs to such a family as mine, when
we have no hens.

Homicide in Taliaferro Countt.—Jesse
Nunn was shot by Alexander Evans on the
morning of the 13th inst., near Crawfordsville.
He lived but two hours after receiving the fatal
wound. The shooting was the result of an old
grudge. We understand Evans has fled from

Macon & Augusta Railroad—Stoppage of
Trains.—We learn from the Augusta Constitu
tionalist, that a dispatch was received by Super
intendent Johnson, of the Georgia Railroad, at a
late hour on Sunday night, announcing that no
trains would be able to pass over the Macon and
Augusta Railroad, uotil several slides had been
repaired. There were consequently, no con
nections from this road yesterday, with the
Georgia road. The full extent ol the damage
sustained by this road, from the recent heavy
rains has not yet been ascertained by Superinten
dent Johnson, but it is believed that all neces
sary repairs will be made in two days. Pending
the completion of the requisite repairs, no
freights will be received on the Georgia Rail
road for points on the Macon & Augusta Rail
road.
Accident on W. & A. R. R—Tuesday
night, about 8 o’clock, the lumber train ran off

All was cleared yesterday, and trains are now
runn'mg regularly. Nobody hurt.
Death of Hon. W. F. DeSaussure.—A
special dispatch to the Charleston Jews, on
Monday last, from Columbia, S. C., announces
tbe death, on Sunday night, of the above named
distinguished Carolinian, an old and highly
esteemed lawyer of Columbia, who, in the purer
days of the country, had been lor several years
an honored and respected member of the South
Carolinia Legislature. Mr. D., was in the 79th
year of his age, and was born in Charleston,
February 2, 1792. Mr. DeSaussure’s name is
cotemporaneous with the history of South
Carolina from our earliest recollection. He

thousand bushels. His land is rich river bot

of the yield.
Immense Immigration.—From the Nashville
Union & American, of the 16th instant, we learn
that 14 since the 1st of October last, fifty-three
thousand immigrants, white aud black, have
passed through Memphis—of which fifteen
thousand wire foreigner principally from the
neighborhoi d of Chicago—hunting homes in
the c« tton ?t tea. The negroes were principally
from VtrginiH." Why don’t some of these immi
grants come to Georgia ? We are in great need
of labor here, and though Georgia has a general
agent of immigration, at a salary of $3,000 a
year, and a hut-iso agent with a salary of $1,500
a year, yet we see none ot the irnits of their
labors. Georgia opens a wide field lor immi
gration, and we wonder why it is not sought

We clip the above notice from the Rome

While we wish the Captain ail the joy and
pleasure to be derived from wedded life, we ask
pardon lor expressing the opinion that he had
better left marrying alone, un il he fights out

Richmond, Va., March 17.—A conflict of au

Mayor Cahoon refuses to give up the office to
Mayor Ellison, elected last night by the city
council The former has sworn in 150 special
constables, including 20 colored men and the
latter has 200 special officers. The old police
force is divided equally between the two mayors,
and Mayor Ellison has possession cf the
City Hall and all other public buildings, except
the station house, which is held by the Cahoon
party.
Cahoon wrote to Governor Walker, stating
hi9 position and asking assistance to maintain
his authority. Walker replied that Ellison
being legally elected under act of the Legisla
ture, he could not recognize any one else as
Mayor; that Cahoon is incapable of holding
office under Virginia law, as he already holds a
federal office; that no breach ot peace can
occur without Cahoon’s act or approval; that
he should resort to peaceful, judicial remedy, il
he wants to test the question ot right; and
finally, he should obey laws and sustain consti
tutional authorities.
Ex Governor Wise, Judge R W. Hughes and
L. Chandler, are counsel for (Jalhoon who, with
about 30 men, is besieged in tbe lower station

London, March 17.—The Times prints tbe
City ot Boston canard, nncorrected, this morn
ing. Underwriters have exacted seven guineas
premium on the overdue steamer Samaria,
while the premium on the City ot Boston has
again been reduced. The question was put by
Sir J. Parkiugton in the House of Commons as
to the rumored overlading of the steamer City
of BostOD, and has called from tbe Board of
Trade a report giving extended rules and regu
lations for interior loading ot ships, &c.
Private Execution.—The Charleston Courier
says," We are informed that Judge Carpenter will
make an order of Court prohibiting the presence
of anybody at the execution of Friday Nixor,
which will take place shortly. Nobody will be
permitted to enter the jail yard except the
sheriff and his assistants.” We are not mnch
in f&yor of capital punishment, but are free to
admit that the good of society sometimes make
it necessary. But with regard to public execu
tions, we heartily endorse the action of Judge
Carpenter. A public execution is a sort of rare
show, to congregate the multitude, and tbe effect
Is demoralizing in every sense of the word —
Make it private and it is clothed with a horrible
mystery which is a terror to evil-doers.
