An inch of rain represents four and two-thirds (4|) gallons per square yard, or 22622 gallons per acre. The mean annual rainfall in middle Geor gia being about 50 inches, there will fall on a square yard during a year about 230 gallons of water, and on an acre considerably over a million gal lons (1,113,200). The smallest mean annual rainfall recorded in the U. S. is at Yuma, Ari zona, where the fall is only 2.04 inches. The greatest mean annual fall in the TJ. S. (outside of Alaska) is record ed at HatterasN. C., and Pensacola, Fla., where it amounts to 75 inches. At only one other place is a higher mean annual recorded—at Mount Washington, N. H., where it is 84 inches. At Key West it is only 40 inches, while at New Orleans it is nearly 05 inches. The highest mean annual rainfall recorded in the world is near tlie Kha- sia mountains in Bengal, where it is 600 inches; 500 of which fall in seven months. In the South Atlantic states the winds most likely to be followed by rain in April, are those from S. E. to S. W. Least likely to be followed by rain, those from N. to W.

Tlie lrwinton Southerner says: We have before urged the claims of Mill edgeville for the school of Technolo gy, and we again put before the peo ple the advantages of the old capital. We are satisfied, that no town or city in the State offers greater induce ments. The health of Milledgeville is undisputed, its general accessibility is as good as can be desired in point of railroad facilities, and it has a great ad vantage in its geographical position, being in the center of the State, and thus equally accessible to the whole State. Besides these advantages, it lias already built and belonging to the State, the Executive mansion and the grounds belonging to the old penitentiary, which may be used for the school, thus obtaining one of the best buildings in the State for the school, and enabling the state to de vote these buildings and grounds to a noble purpose, and one, the benefits of which will continue to flow from it, to e nrich and bless the whole people and land. “We don’t have to recommend I arker’s Hair Balsam but once," writes Mr. C.

Mr. Editor:—We have been cut off from town for a week by high water. Hope to be dry soon. We have had some mad dog excite ment. Some six or eight dogs have been killed in the last two months. My little dog “Rowland” was discov ered on Sunday, 28th ult., with open mouth and locked jaws. A freedman told me he had been with a mad dog just three weeks previous to that day. I put him in a covered pen. He refus ed to eat, and continued to grow r worse for three days, when finding him whining and rolling in agony, I had him shot and killed. The num ber of mad dogs throughout the coun try is getting to be alarming, and calls for a dog law. Our spring oats are improving: all Fall oats were killed. Corn is coming up very well. We are now preparing land for cotton. I think most of the stock was saved from the freshet which was the highest for 10 or 15 years. The freedmen are anticipating a big time tomorrow in dedicating their new Baptist church at Poplar Springs, three miles from the line in Washing ton county, if the pastor, Rev. Hum phries McDonald can get over the riv er from Milledgeville. S. E. W. April 3rd, 1886. Washington Letter. From Our Regular Correspondent. Washington, March 28* 1886. When the blind Chaplain of the House of Representatives, in his morning prayer, asked for the recov ery of the Secretary of the Treasury, he extended his invocation in a way that was quite unnecessary. He pray ed that the President, his Cabinet, and the two houses of Congress might profit by this example of overwork, bearing in mind that the body has its laws, the study and the practice of which are obligatory on every man of sense. So far as this busy, hard worked Administration is concerned, Dr. Milburn’s petition seemed well enough, but it was’felt that there was no need of placing before either branch of Congress, as a warning, the results of over industry. There is little danger that the Sen ate will injure itself with hard work if its majority, in a time when hundreds of thousands of hungry men are wan dering with despairing aimlessness down the highways and through the byways of the land, can find as its only issue the question as to the pa pers in some petty office. So long as the majority in the highest legislative body of the nation, will continue, for the length of three weeks, a privileged collective scandal monger, because the Executive does not waive his pre rogative and give it access to his pri vate correspondence, there is no need of prayers in behalf of overtoiled Sen ators. The President continues to aston ish every one abou£ him by the re markable amount of labor he per forms daily. No man has probably ever before given anything like as much intellectual strength and stead iness of application to the duties of the Presidential office. He studies closely even the minor questions that come before him for official action, and every document that goes from his hands, if it be only a letter to an office holder, is carefully prepared. Mr. Jordan, the United States Treasurer, under the new regime, is another practical worker and thorough business man. A short time ago a Congressional Committee asked him to appear before them and impart his views on financial topics. He re sponded that he was too bnsy during the day, but would be pleased to meet the committee at night, and so he did. A short time after Mr. Jordan was installed in his new] office, he went to the Government Printing Office and asked to have a small 30b of work done that day. He was assured by some of the officials there that it could not be finished before the next morn ing. “I must have that printing to night,” insisted the Treasurer. “It is impossible,” remonstrated the others. MrJJordan threw off his coat, went to a desk, and began setting the type rapidly himself, while the clerks look ed on in astonishment. He finished a third of the work in fifteen minutes, and turning to the officials, he said; “Now when I ask to have a certain job of printing done by a certain time, please remember that I know what I sun talking about.” It is useless to say the xvork was ready for him at the specified time. When his resolutions finally got through the Senate by si majority of one, Senator Edmunds breathed a sigh of relief. Even this barren victo ry was better than he expected. He was nervously apprehensive that a sufficient number of his Republican brethren would vote against him to cause his defeat. Mr. Edmunds sudden anxiety to force a vote is easily ex plained. Had he alloAved the debate to continue until the new California Senator, then en route for Washing ton, reached here, his little game would have failed, for the Senate would have been tied. The political effect of the discussion will not be profitable to the Republi can party, and the whole contest can have no practical result. No displac ed official will be restored. No per sonal papers will be furnished and no reason will be given. It is xvell knoxvn here that the Republicans feel 110I e- lation or satisfaction in carrying through these resolutions by this meagre majority of a strict party vote. It was thought the distinguished Senator from New York, Mr. Evarts, would not dare to speak on the Ed munds’ resolution question because : his logic as an attorney in behalf of a j Senate plaintiff against a President i defendant in 1886 conflicted so seri ously with his logic in behalf of a President defendant against a Senate plaintiff in 1869. He did speak, how ever, and this is the way he explained his change of base: “I might say, that when counsel are urging and pressing propositions in yiew and in aid of a defendant in charge, those are scarcely judicial opinions.” His ex planation would have been simpler at least, if he had said; “I was retained to attack the tenure of office law sev enteen years ago: I am retained to uphold it now.” Rainstorms and Cyclones.

The heavy rains of Sunday night and Monday caused the streams all over Georgia to become very much swollen. The Ocmulgee river rose very rapidly and caused much damage, in Macon it overflowed its banks on the east side. The small houses near the bank were completely cut off from commu- ication with the streets that were free from water. Boats were used to transfer people from house to house. At the bridge the water registered about three feet lower than the height reached during the Harrison freshet. The railroads centering in Macon were all more or less damaged. A trestle on the Georgia railroad hear Milledgeville was washed out, and passengers were transferred at that point. A washout occurred near East Point on the Atlanta division of the Central railroad Monday night at about the same time that on the Georgia railroad took place. On the East Tennessee, Virginiaand Georgia railroad, several trestles were washed out between Atlanta and Stockbridge. No trains from Atlanta had arrived up to a late hour last night. Between Macon and Bruns- Avick parts of the track were under water, but not enough to prevent the running of trains. The second day’s news from the great flood was too voluinnious for us to print the items as found in our ex changes. We give a synopsis of the more interesting items as follows: Great damage was done at West Point, the water pouring through all the streets. The toll bridge across the Chattahoochee was swept away, leav ing the east and west portions of the town divided. Many residences with pianos and household furniture are perfect wrecks. The damage is esti mated at $200,000. The railroad bridge is so damaged that it is thought it will have to be condemned. A railroad negro was drowned. At Athens, the Oconee was higher than ever known before. Tlie foot bridge, knoxvn as the “upper bridge” was thought to be doomed. The wa ters are high up on houses near the river and many graves in the ceme tery were being washed over. Great damage reported from the country. In Rome there was four feet of wa ter in the Western Union Telegraph office and the town was submerged. In the accident on the Columbus & Western Railroad at Tallapoosa river, Ala., one white man and five negroes were killed. From Gainesville we learn that the railroad bridge on Mulberry river was washed away and no trains had gone out for two days on the Gaines ville, Jefferson & Southern Railroad. A cyclone struck the dwelling of Mr. James Howell three m^les below Stone Mountain late Tuesday even ing, the 30th, ult. The family consist ing of husband, wife, two daughters and three sons, were in.a small dwell ing which the account says was dis mantled. The oldest son was killed, the father had hie arm broken and was badly mashed up and the remain ing members of the family were seri ously but not dangerously hurt. I11 Montgomery, Ala.., heavy losses in stock swept away are reported. The flood reached the highest point ever known, and the water was over all the tracks at the Union depot. The gas and electric light works were sub merged and the city left in total dark ness. The loss in Talladega, in dam age to mills, bridges and stock was es timated at $200,000. Birmingham, Ala., reports regular railroad traffic suspendeu since Mon day. Great damage has been done to railroads. The accounts from Tenn., and Va., are very much such as we have had in our own state, and the rainfall ex tended with severe losses to Mississip pi- A Wet Citizen. miles to Kingston and luckily caught a train coming into Atlanta.” Judge Sanford added: ‘-Professor Agostini is a little fellow, but he has a soul as bigas a mountain. I never saw a man with so much pluck and such a big heart as he showed yesterday.” Judge Sanford saw a gentleman who left Rome yesterday about 11 o’clock and who reported that water was then up to the second story of the Rome hotel, near the depot. When the train passed the Etowah yester day the river had fallen a’ little. Judge Sanford will be in Atlanta two or three days. BRM 5 , The floods of the past week seem to have been greater in Alabama and the Western and Northern part of this state than have ever been known before since the country was settled by the whites. The Oconee was very high here, probably higher than the Harrison freshet, and besides minor injury done to the Macon & Augusta R. R., between her© and Macon, it damaged the bridge over the Oconee so that trains were stopped for sever al days. The bridge was repaired however in time for trains to com mence crossing on itSunday morning last. We call the attention of our read ers to the advertisement in this issue of H. P.

The Atlanta Constitution of Thurs day last, gives the following account of the adventures “by flood and field” of one of our good citizens: A ROUGH EXPERIENCE. Judge D. B. Sanford, of Miiledge- ville, came down from Rome last night and took a room at the Kim ball. The Judge was not feeling very well, and went at once to his room. At nine o’clock a Constitution man sent up his card. “Heisinbed, but says come up,” was what the bell boy said on his re turn. When the reporter entered the room he found the Judge sitting up in bed, and looking something under the weather. His shirt was stained with streaks, and there was a limpness about bis whist bands that told the story of water misapplied. “I* came mighty near getting drown ed,” said the Judge, looking ruefully at his stained shirt. “It happened this way,” he said in answer/to a question. “I was in Rome yesterday. The city was flooded. The people were as blue as indigo and as busy as bees. They were getting their goods above high-water mark by putting them three feet above the floors. I wanted to come to Atlanta and was assured by Mr. Ramsey, of Rome, that he could take me to Hall station with safety. A party of four was made up, consisting of Mr. L. W. Drewry, of Atlanta, Mr. R. W. Rood of Rome,Professor Agostini of Atlan ta, and myself. We left about mid day in a close carriage and before we had gotten out of Floyd county we got into a creek and were washed some distance down. We managed to escape and proceeded in safety to a stream known as Tom's creek. In crossing that stream the carriage struck a stump, the water came all over us and the horses broke loose throughout the S' -.th and California, to sell from the carriage.
