It will be my pleasure during the
continuing of these thoughts “at ran
dom strung," to" introduce brief bio
graphical sketches of old citizens of
Baldwin county who have gone be
fore or still live, whose characters
and lives are impressed on the times
in which they moved and had a being,
and whose example may serve to ex
cite emulation among our young men
to be good and serviceable citizens
like they were. I Introduce to-day a
nuine familiar to many of the readers
of this paper, albeit it may be un
known to the great major.ty ; it is
richaed McAllister orme.
The old editor of the Southern lie- .
corder, and founder of that paper in | politically in a rival paper in Mi
Milledgeville, was born in Mont.gom- | ledgeville for 17 years, embracing tii
er his merits, they were his own. He
took no man as his model or guide
but acted from his own conviction of
what was right and honorable. He
was a public spirited man and one of
the projectors and steadfast friends
in the building of the Gordon and Mil
ledgeville railroad whifbh saved the
seat of government to tfiis city so
long, and gttve to Milledgeville the
basis of her present prosperity. He
was always ready with hie money and
time to help any deserving enterprise,
and was one of the earliOst, most
faithful and persistent friends of Ogle
thorpe University. His hospitality
was known from Maine to Texas, for
his friends used to say'he kept a kind
of free hotel for ininistersand person
al friends. He was a Christian gen
tleman, above all ; and when he died
the Presbyterian church in Milledge
ville lost the best piece of timber in it.

reached Milledgeville about tlie close
of fiie year-1819. On the.-15Mi Of Feb
ruary, 1820, the iirst issue of the South
ern Recorder appeared with Grant-
land and Orme as editors and propri
etors, Mr. Orme having associated Mr.
Grantland with liiin in tlie new en
terprise. Mr. Orme whenJie declared
hiSMBtantioh to establish another pa

yeftfs Of agMmd possesstaff little mo
ney, was advised by some of his
friemjs not to attempt such a thing
as he could not compete with the
Georgia Journal and the other publi
cation in the city—that lie would’lose
his entire investment. His reply was
characteristic of the man’s entire af
ter life: said he, “Gentlemen, I don’t
doubt my industry or energy, and if
labor and attention to business can
accomplish anything, 1 intend to es
tablish the Southern Recorder, and I
ask no odds of any one.” The histo
ry of the Recorder is known to the
people of Georgia, and for full forty
years Mr. Orme was tlie soul of the
paper. He lived to see it enter its
50th year. In liis old age, 70 years,
lie fomid himself embarrassed from
the loss of liis property, amounting
to near $100,000, mostly invested in
negroes.' The troubles and liarrass-
inents that clouded tlie last years of
his life cut short his days as Ins friends
well know.
Mr. Oruie was not a great man, in
the common acceptation of the word;
lie was not a man of talents or orig
inality, but plain, practical, common
sense. He had not the advantages of
a classical education, or hardly any
other, as he has been heard to say
that two years was the only school
ing he had, and that in a country
scliokl house in McIntosh county, i
But if strict honor, high sense of
truth, an unquestioned integrity, pure
morals, great self respect and kindly
courtesy, combine to make a great
man, then Richard McAllister Orme
was the peer of any.
Strange as it may seem, Mr. Orme,
was a very modest man, as much so
as a woman, and shrank from the
popular gaze. He did not desire or
seek ofllce, yet all his life was devoted
to public and political affairs. Had
he been gifted with a ready tongue,
and easy flow of language, lie would
liave been a very prominent man in
affairs of the State; but, as it was,
lie was only -known to tlie people of
Georgia through tlie columns of tlie
Southern Recorder.
In tlie domestic relations, Mr. Orme's
life was beautiful : rounded and sym
metrical. He was a model husband
and father. Nothing lay so near liis
heart as his home, wife and children.
As a master he was kind and consid
erate, though firm ; as a friend true
and sincere, and as a neighbor pleas
ant and agreeable. He valued his
personal honor and truth above all
money considerations.
His neighbors were all marked men,
of strong personal peculiarities: they
were, Dr. Chas. J. Paine, Dr. Benj. A.
White, Dr. Tomlinson Fort, Col. Au
gustus H. Kenan, Peter J Williams
and Jeremiah H. Beall. Dr. Paine
was his brother-in-law, Mr. Orme hav
ing married his eldest sister; who was
the mother of MaJ. R. M. Orme, of
Savannah, Dr. Henry S. Orme, of Los
Angela*,- California, Mrs. Georgia
Orme Alexander, now deceased, and
Mrs. Virginia Orme Campbell, of At
lanta. ' .
Mr. Orme was married twice. I lie
last time to Mrs. Abby A. Edgerton.

President Cleveland on Mixed
Sehriols.
Mr. G. A. Sullivan, editor of the
Montgomery (Va.) Democrat, recently
wrote to President Cleveland inquir
ing in regard to the truth of a report
that Mr. Cleveland, while Governor
of New York, approved a bill author
izing mixed schools in that State. In
replying to Mr. Sullivan’s inquiry,
President Cleveland writes: “The only
bill that I know of being passed and
approved of on that subject, while I
was Governor, was one affecting the
city of New York, and had precisely
the contrary effect—that is, the pur
pose and object was to retain tli'e col
ored schools separate and distinct
from those for the whites. Mr. Nelson

Of course manufacturers can make
their fertilizers richer than this to the
extent that they may choose, but none
can be legally offered for sale that is
below that standard. No potash is
required in this standard hilt all
“complete” fertilizers are expected to
contain it to the extent of one and a
half per c't. or more. The general aver
age of all "complete” fertilizers in
Georgia for the past season shows
2.45 per cent, of Ammonia, 10.30 of
Available Phosphoric Acid, and 1.9(1
of Potash. The finer grades ranged
above these figures and the poorer
below it. The principal substances
mined or manufactured and known
as Commercial Fertilizers are em
braced in the following list: Kainit,
Acid Phosphate, Ground Raw Bone,
Guano, Nitrate of Soda, Sulphate Am
monia, Dried Blood, Cotton Seed
Meal.
What is known as super phosphate
iS but a higher grade of acid phos
phate that is containing a greater
per centage of soluble or available
phosphoric acid. When ammonia is
added to this it is known as ammo-
niated super phosphates and witli the
addition of potash is styled a Com
plete Fertilizer. The 300 or more dif
ferent brands offered for sale in Geor
gia the past season consisted of the
above or compounds of two or more
of them. Kainit (and other grades of
Potash Suits), as is well known, is
valuable only for its potash; Acid
Phosphate almost entirely for its
phosphoric acid; Ground Raw Bone
for its ammonia and phosphoric acid;
Guano (which is the excrement of
sea fowl, imported into this country
from South America), of various
grades and brands contains all three
ejements. The four last substances
are valued almost entirely for their

The resignation of Ex-Gov. Porter
as Assistant Secretary of State and
the appointment of his successor con
tinue to bo topics of discussion among
the politicians. There appears to be
every reason to believe that Mr..Bay
ard and Mr. Porter were at variance
on several questions of public policy
—that, in fact, the latter was too
much disposed to assert himself in
affairs of State. Among those men
tioned for the succession are Congress
man Belmont, of N. J., Chairman of
the Committee on Foreign Affairs in
the Forty-Ninth Congress, and ex-
Congressinan Cox, of N. G., who was
Chairman of the Committee on Civil
Service In the same body.
It is said that Mr. Bayard regards
the latter the most, favorably, on ac
count of his administration of the
North Carolina statesman’s progres
sive course on Civil Service reform,
and also his possession of consklera
bio wealth—an important factor in a
diplomatic position. Mr. Belmont al
so lias wealtli to back him, and lie is

Secretary claims the right to select
