Millkdokvillb, Ga m Fkb. 17, 1891.
Editorial Glimpses and Clippings.
The water surface of Georgia is put
down at 495 sq. luiles.
Texas is more than four times the
size of the State of Georgia and Cal
ifornia is n£rly 3 times as large as
the “Empire State.”
Mr. Gould is said to be preparing to
make the Terminal Lines the outlet
for his Western freights, with Savan
nah as the port.
The State Agricultural Society had
a pleasant and profitable meeting in
Savannah last week. It meets in
Athens next August.
The world is to be saved by moral
suasion and not by force, and Chris
tian education seeins to be the surest
method to bring about the grand re
suit.
Mr. Cleveland's letter against the
free coinage of silver has seriously
damaged his prospects for President
in 1892. Democratic sentiment now
favors Senator Gorman as the best
man for the Democrats to nominate.
Dispatches from Savannah to the
daily papers last Sunday say: From
an authentic source comes the report
that theCentral railroad is to be leased
to the Richmond Terminal. One re
port isthat the Richmond and Danville
will be the nominal lessee. Eight |*>r
cent, on the stock is the price paid.
For what time the lease will run is
not stated.
The quantity of money of all kinds
in use in the w’orld is said to approxi
mate the following:
Gold, 3,500 millions.
Silver, 2,500 “
Paper, ._ 4,000 “
The stock of gold and silver in the
1 T . S., on the 1st of November 1890 is
stated by the director of the mint to
have been $1,180,23(5,177, of {his
amount $094 805,080 was gold coin and
bullion.
Census bulletin, No. 27, gives statis
tics of the mines and mining of Ala
bama coal for the year 1889. In 1880
the output, of coal was only 323,972
tons valued at the mines at, $470,911.
In 1889.3,374,484 tons were taken from
the mines aud worth a little over one
dollar per ton. The averuge number
of persous employed at the mines was
0.762, and the amount of wages paid
footed up $3,175,850. The great coal
couutityi are Jefferson, Walker aud
Bibb, much the larger quantity being
mined in Jefferson county.
There are seven counties in Geor
gia that have each an area of over one
thousand square miles. These are Ap
pling, Burke, ClmHton, Coffee, De
catur, Euiaut el aud Tattnal. The
state of Rhode Island Is not quite as
large as either Coffee, Decatur or Tat-
nall, thislittlestateonly 1,085 sq. miles
of territory. Delaware is not quite
♦twice as large as “Little Rhody.”
Glasscoek is the smallest county in
the state having ony 90 sq. miles Mil-
ton is the next smallest with 110 sq.
miles. Baldwin has 240 tq miles of
territory.
It is estimated that 80.000 persons
nearly half of whom are able-bod-
iud men, are on the verge of starva
tion in Berlin, Germany's proud
capita! It is said that'the extreme
rigorof the present winter lots made
the sufferings of the hungry poor
almost unbearable, and many a
wretch has sought relief in sui
cide. Kaiser Wilhelm has order
ed a census of the unemployed.
During the next few days police
men will go from house to house
throughout all except the most aris- f
tocratic parts of the city, searching
for people who are tint of work and
'inquiring the causes of their idle
ness.
The United States is developing her
cities to a wonderful extent. In 1390
3 per cent of the population were liv
ing in cities of 8000 population and
over. Iu 1790 onl> 3 per cent were so
ocated. Already the United States
have three oi’ies witli a population
of one million each or more. The
number of cities witli a population
of two hundred thousand is 16.
.The recent census shows that of the
2,1138,943 inhabitants of Masachusetts
over one million and a half are living
in oities of 8000 population or over .70
per cent of her population ure living
in 47 cities.
Death of Gen. Sherman.
General William Tecumseh Sherman
died in New York last Saturday at
1:50 p. m. He was born in Lancaster,
Ohio, Feb. 8, 1820. He graduated at
West Point in 1840. He entered the
service of the United States in the
war between the States as a Colonel
in May 1801, and in August following
was made brigadier general of volun
teers. In 1864, after his celebrated
march through Georgia to the sen, he
was made a Major General and re
ceived the thanks of Congress. Upon
the appointment of Grant as general
of the army, he was promoted to be
lieutenant general, and when Grant
became Presidentof the United StaPes,
March 4, 1809, he succeeded him as
general, witli headquarters at Wash
ington.
The funeral services over the re
mains of the General will take place
on Thursday from his late residence
iu New York, and the body will be
taken by special train to St. Louis.
The Brightest Gem of All.
During the period of time covered
by the years between 1842, and 1891,
the South has had many newspapers
ami periodicals established within tier
limits. Some have Hashed like me
teors across tlie literary sky in a brill
iant but brief existence. Others have
grown gradually in worth and influ
ence. (>f all the journals of the south,
none presents a brighter record than
the peerless Southern Cultivator. In
January next it will celebrate its semi
centertThl. The Southern Cultivator
lias krpt abreast of the age and lead
iu the effort to place agriculture on
a high plain. It lias never been a
personal journal, devoted to person
al ends but managed in the inter
est of the people. The February
issue of that splendid journal is the
brightest gem of all. The “Thoughts
for t lie Month”and “Answers to 1 nquir
ers” are concise, practical and in ac
cord with the development of the day.
(Governor Nortlien, who writes exclu
sively for it, has several able articles
in its columns. Tim Alliance Depart’
inent will be found exceedingly inter
esting. That organization is discuss
ed in a conservative and convincing
style by Senator John P>. Gordon,
Gov. W. J. Northen and President ,i.
(>. Waddell, leading and influential
members of that body. Hon. T. H.
Kimbrough, Master of t lie Georgia
Slate Grange,presents striking sugges
tions to the members of the Grange,
while the papers of Hon. R. T. Nesbitt,
Commissioner of Agriculture, and
Hou. J.B. Hunicutt, Assistant Com-
misiouer of Agriculture, are replete
with fact and sound advice. The
official proceedings of the Direct Trade
Convention, with the masterly ad
dress of Col. C. P. Goodyear, will al
so be found in this number. The
Cultivator should be in every home
in the South. Send $1 to The Culti

NORTHEN AND GOULD.
The Governor's Reasons for Declin
ing to Meet the Little Wizard.
The text of Governor Northen's
letter declining to meet Juy Gould,
is as follows: *
W. A. Hemphill, City.—My Dear
Sir: It lias not been possible for
me to meet you today in confer
ence about the invitation you had
tlie kindness to tender Mrs. Northen
and myself to aid in receiving tlie
Gould party upon their arrival in
the city. *
1 recognize with the fullest ap
preciation the consideration shown
me as the chief executive of the
state, and I beg leave to tender you
my thunks for tlie compliment. 1
must lie allowed to say, however,
that I do not recognize Mr. Gould
as visiting the state in any official
capacity, but rather in his own in
terest without regard to tlie in
terest of the masses of tlie people
of the state. 1 may be mistaken in
my measure of tlie man, but 1 am
candid in saying, that 1 do not
think his methods as practiced in
other sections where he has power,
would develop our state on Die line
of the public good.
Without in tlie least criticising
the opinions of others, and thank
ing you most heartily for the com
pliment intended in the invitation
you so kindly tendered me, 1 must
most respectfully decline.
Please understand that what 1
say refers specially and solely to
Mr. Gould and not to any other
member of his party.
Truly and sincerely,
W. J. Nohthkn, Governor.

THE MEDICAL PROFESSION.
Senator Edmunds is credited with
saying: “that the opposition to tlie
Election bill cculd be classed under
the four D’s: fir^ the Democrat pure
and simple; second the Doughfaces of
the North who always sides with tlie
Southern wing of his party; third the
Demagogue who in the form of the
Mugwump always seeks to have
peace at any price; aud fourtli Dives,
the rich New York grocer who thinks
that if tlie election bill ever passed lie
might not be able to sell as much tea
and sugar iu tlie South as before.” If
Senator Edmunds made such a remark
it only goes to prove that when great
men set out to play the fool they
succeed admirably in doing so. The
Force bill has aroused tlie opposition
and disapproval of some of tlie ablest
and purest Republicans in this coun
try.
Tlie attiude of the medical profes
sion toward what is known as “patent
medicines” is uAtflit all Unreasonable-
Thousands of these nostrums are of
fered to tlie public every year. Some
of them are dangerous, and most of
them are futile Swift’s Specific
(S. S. S.), we are glad to say, is not
classed among these nostrums. It
lias overcome tlie wholesome preju
dices of physicians iu all parts of the
country, and some of tlie strongest
testimonials in its behalf couie from
medical men who have used it in their
practice, and who do not hesitate to
‘endorse its wonderful results. This is
extremely gratifying, but by no means
astonishing, for every claim that is
put forward in behalf of S. S. S. is
based on a series of actual experi
ments extended over a long period of
time.
Jay Gould.
Jay Gould, the wizzard of Wall
street, was born iq'1836, at Strattau
Falls, Delaware county, New,York.
His father was a farmer, and also
ran a little grocery store.
Very naturally Jay spent the early
years of his boyhood on the farm and
belrind the counter.
His education was limited and he
did not have much of a start in life,
but he got there just the same.
At sixteeu he was a clerk in a fancy
goods store of Squire Burnham, near
Strattau Falls.
Tlie shrewduess of Jay Gould de
veloped early. He heard his employ
er speak of buying a small tract, of
land near Albany. Jay got there first,
bought the land and closed out ut a
profit
He invented a mouse trap and sold
tlie patent.
When he was 18 years old he help
ed to survey Delaware county, and
made a map which is still in use.
After the survey he went into part
nership with a man, who owned a
tannery iu Pennsylvania, and during
tlie next three years he made money
and got a good start.
He early developed a habit of buy
ing out his partners. He bought out
ills partner in the tannery, but soon
sold it. and went to New York to live.
ill’s life since then lias been spent in
Wall street. One af the • irliest part
nershipB being with tlie lirmof Smith,
Gould A Martin.
Gould's policy lias al#ays been to
buy up two or three small badly pay
ing railroads, consolidate them un
der u new name, issue, bonds at a good
price, and sell out at a profit. When
the buyers found that they were un
able to operate the road at a prolit,
Gould would buy it buck at a much
smaller figure.
Jay Gould’s wenlih is estimated at
from one hundred million to two hun
dred million dollars. He lives in n.
magnificent bouse oti Fifth avenue,
and lie lias an office in tlie Western
Union bnildiung.
The story is told that once Jay
Gould was in Europe and sent liis
card to Baron Rothschilds.
Tlie baron sent back word “Europe
is not for sale.”

“Do'for me? Jo-roo’slum! No; not

A sporting man said: “Fin supersti
tious. I admit it. Of course fellows
laugh at me, but for all that I believe
I’ve got some sort of a guardian angel
that whispers to me when 1’in in dan
ger. Maybe it's one of the wrong sort,
for they do say tlie devil takes care of
his own; but wrong or right as to kind, I
know one thing certain—tliat my life
has been saved more than once. One
time I was at a racecourse, and was up
in tlie grandstand. I was broke and
wanted to keep away from the boys.
There were not many people on the
stand; it wasn't half tilled, but sud
denly I felt an 'impulse which fairly
drove me out of tlie place. I had not
got clear down the stairs when the
whole stand went down with a erasli,
and the fellow who was sitting right
next to mo was crushed out of all
semblance to humanity by a great big
beam that smashed the whole row of
seats wo were in.”—San Francisco

A Giant Lobster. »
In September, 1885, John D. Barnes,
zoologist of Central Park museum,
New York city, caught the largest lob
ster known in the annals of 'natural
history. It wus caught in a common
basket trap oil the coast north of Cape
Cod. Usually the lobster weighs from
one to eight pounds, rarely twelve to
fifteen, but this monster of the Massa
chusetts bay tipped the beam at twen-
ty-tliree pounds. A curiosity collector
vainly offered $50 for Mr. Barnes’ un
usual catch.—St. Louis Bepublic.
TALLEYRAND FACES A MANIAC.
HU Eacape from a Violent l>o»th at tl>©
Hand, of Hi* IiiHaue Partner.
In the extracts from the “Talleyrand
Memoirs” no mention is made of tlie es
cape the distinguished author of those
“Memoirs” had from meeting a violent
death on Brooklyn heights. The inci
dent is related in the volume of Fraser’s
Magazine for 1850, and its accuracy is
vouched for by no less an authority
than M. ColmacUe, Talleyrand's pri
vate secretary.
When Talleyrand fled from France
at the beginning of the Reign of Ter
ror he sought a refuge in England.
There ho remained unmolested until
January of 1794, when, on the suppo
sition that, he was more intimately con
nected with tlie events that led to the
execution of Louis XVI than he cored
to admit, he received an order to quit
England, and after vainly appealing
the foreign secretary he isailed for the
United'States, bearing with him letters
of introduction to a number of prom
inent Americans, among them one
from the Marquis of Lansdowne to
Wasliington.
IIo was accompanied in liis flight by
n M. tie Boauinetz, with whom, some
time after tlieir arrival in America, he
formed a'partnership for tlie purpose
of fitting out a trading vessel. A small
ship was freighted with goods for Cal
cutta, whither the two exiles had re
solved to proceed in search of fortune;

New York, Feb. 11.—When ex-Gov.

that his pocket had been picked, and
he had neither railroad ticket nor
money to buy any. Besides his ticket

to put tlieir scheme into operation was
a fair wind, which, lroweves, tfio ele
ments refused. In the interval caused
by this detention Talleyrand had one
of what ho called his presentiments,
and to its occult warnings he after
ward declared ho owed tin* immediate
preservation of his life, salvation from
fhipwreck, and that change in iris des
tiny which led to all the future inci
dents of liis eventful career.
Disappointment and Vexation, prey
ing upon an irritable temper, drove iris
partner, mad. Talleyrand saw insanity
in his looks and gestures, but, suffering
himself to be Led to the luriglrts^of
Brooklyn, which overlook the harbor,
lie turned upon the maniac aud. fixing
his eyes sternly upon him, exclaimed: i
“Beaumetz, you mean to murder me.
You intend to throw me from the
heights into the sea below. Deny it,
monster, if you can!”
Thus apostrophized, the unhappy
and conscious stricken maniac quailed
beneath tlie intensity and sternness of
Iris gaze, confessed that suelr was his
design, that tlie thought, like a flash
from the lurid fire of hell, had haunted
him day and night, and flinging him
self upon the neck of his meditated vio-
*m he burst into tears and implored
forgiveness. The paroxysm had passed
off, aud tottering reason had resumed
her sway. Beaumetz was conveyed
home and placed under modical treat
ment, and speedily recovering proceed
ed on his voyage alone, never more to
be heard of.
“My fate,” said Talleyrand, when
speaking of this incident in after life,
“was at work.”—Brooklyn Eagte.
. Met His Match.
That well known historical person
age, Augustus tlie Strong, elector of
Saxony, has furnished the subject for
many a tale of his wonderful muscular
power. We need refer only fo one
characteristic story, in which, however,
he met his match. On tlie occasion in
• question lie entered a blacksuAth’s shop
to havo his liorso shod. To show his
suito how strong lie was, picking up
several horseshoes, he broke one after
the other, asking the blacksmith
whether lie had no better. When it
came to paying the bill the Elector
Augustus threw a six dollar piece on
the anvil. It was a very thick coin.
The blacksmith took it up, broke it iij
half, saying, “Pardon me, but I have
given you a good horseshoe, and I ex
pect a good coin in return.” Another
six dollar piece was given him, but lie
broke that, and fivo or six others, when
the humiliated elector put an end to
the performance by liandiug the black
smith a louisd’or, ' pacifying him by
saying, “The dollars were probably
made of bad metal, but tiiis gold piece
I hope is good. ”—Chambers’ Journal.
As Freight.
Those were bustling days on the
western rivers fifty years ago when em
igrants from the east flocked to the
prairies of the west. Some of the em
igrants, being poor, paid in part for
their passage by helping to “wood the
boat”—tliat is, by carrying wood down
the bank at the wood landings and
throwing it on the boat. An impecun
ious Irishman who did not wish to
pay full fare nor to carry wood board
ed a western steamer at tlie landing
and asked the fare to St. Louis. Be
ing told*he then asked:
“What do you charge for 150 pounds
of freight?”
Upon learning the price, a small
amount, lie said, “I’ll go as freight.”
“All right,” replied tlie captain.
“Put him down iu the hold and lay
some flour barrels ou him, so that lie
won’t roll about if wo have heavy
weather. Century.
