Covington, Newton County, I Georgia, Oct. 13, 1876. j Editor Times: Newton county is bounded north by Walton, east by Morgan and Jasper, south by Butts and Jasper, west by Rockdale. its water courses. Yellow, Ulcofanhachee and South rivers, with Bear and Cornish creeks emptying into Ulcofanhachee river; Big and Little Haynes, Gum and Beaver Dam, into Yellow river; Snapping Shoal, Wild Cat and Honey into South river. POPULATION of the county numbers 15,000, white and black. MINERALS. Gold in smallquantities, iron and granite in abundauce. PRODUCTION OF THE SOIL. Corn, wheat, rye, oats, millet, bar ley, sugar cane, rice, cotton and the grasses form the principal crops. Track farming pays well. Peaches, pears and apples excellent. Grapes do well, properly cultivated. NATURE OF THE SOIL. The surface is undulating, the most productive lies immediately on the streams. The character of the land is of a shady sand mould. the climate Is pleasant and healthy, free from any local causes of disease. THE TOWNS. Oxford. Sand Town, Oak Hill and Covington are the principal places of trade. Covington is the county seat, situated on the Georgia Railroad, 41 miles from Atlanta. It is well sup plied with pure, delightful water, both spring and well. It contains some handsome dwellings, surround ed by beautiful groves. The society is equal to any In the State, hand some places of worship. THE SOUTHERN MASONIC FEMALE COLLEGE is located here. The college is a handsome edifice, well shaded by majestic forest trees. The Trustees, Executive Committee, Board of Vis itors, are all Masons, members of the Grand Lodge of Georgia. We notice among them M. M. Moore and Dr. E. J. Kirkseey, of Columbus. The teachers are seven in number—Rev. J. N. Bradshaw and three single daughters, Mrs. Caldwell, Landsdale, and Miss Askew. All advancement made in the college by the pupils de pends on their knowledge. There are three departments—the Pestalo zian, Preparatory and Collegiate. The studies are grouped into four classes, classed into four departments —Mathematics, Mental and Moral Science, Natural Science, and the Latin Language. Young ladies can graduate in either department on standing its test of proficiency in the studies pertaining thereto. There is also an Elective Course in which is taught Science and the An cient and Modern Languages. A special training is given to those who expect to become teachers. Calis thenics are practiced daily, giving to the young ladies systematic motions of a graceful nature and promoting healthfulness in all. The tuition and board is moderate. Daughters of indigent Master Masons are taught free. All girls are entitled to the protection of Master Masons’ daught ers, irrespective of the relation of the parent. Here they are shielded from all harm that might berall them else where. The scholars wear a cheap uniform, summer and winter, saving much in dress. They are required to attend some church on Sunday. The religious instruction is gen ral teachings of the Bible ac- cording to Masonic Law, and no more. Jew and Gentile can hero study the Biblo together. The rules of the College are plain, few and easily obeyed. Whilst the discipline is firm, It is only exercised for the good of the pupil. The College Is steadily increasing in numbers. The present class consists of a good number for these hard times. Every Mason ali over the land, and more especially Georgia Masons, point with pride to this institution of learning. All things being equal, the Masonio Father should spud his daughter here to completo her edu cation. No where elso can she be better trained for the duties of wo manhood. There is a movement on foot more efficiently to endow the college. It is thought by many of the friends and patrons of the school that the Masonic Grand body of Georgia will at its coming session at Macon give the College $20,000 worth of bonds. It surely ought to do so. No charity more richly deserves her support. In after days it will come back like “bread scattered upon the waters.” COUNTY CROPS.

Columbus, Ohio, October 13.—There is a fixed determination on the part of the Democratic leaders here to never say die, but, on the contrary, to make a fiercer and more deter mined fight for Tilden in November, if possible, than they did for the State ticket in the contest just closed. A meeting of the State Central Com mittee has been called for Wednesday next atColumbus, when the plans for the rest of the camimign will be de cided upon. There is, in fact, no fall ing off in confidence among any of our leaders, and the word comes up from almost every county that they will increase their vote of Tuesday last when the November election comes around. The entire vote this year will not fall short of 625,000, and Barnes’ ma jority, when the official returns are opened and compared, will undoubt edly be something less than 5,000. A change of one-half percent, from the Republican ranks to the Democrats will give us the State. One man in every hundred who voted for Barnes, coming over to Tilden, will make Til den’s majority as large as Barnes’ now is. This is not a state of affairs to discourage anybody in the Demo cratic ranks. Sir William Thomson on the Centre of the Earth. From the London Standard. A remarkable address has been delivered by Sir William Thomson in the Physical Section of the British Association, on the subject of the fluid or solid nature of the earth’s kernel. While not denying that certain portions of the earths interior are in a molten or fluid state, Sir William Thomson maintained, on various more or less recondite grounds, that no large portion of the earth’s interior can by any possibility be in the condition of molten fluid. “I may say, with almost perfect certainty, that whatever may be the relative densities ot rock solid and melted, at or about the temperature of liquefaction, it is, I think, quite certain that cold solid rock is denser than hot melted rock; arid no possible degree of rigidity in the crust could prevent it from breaking in peices and sink ing wholly below the liquid lava. Some thing like this may have gone on and proba bly did go on for thousands of years after solidification commenced; surface portions of the melted material losing heat, freezing and sinking immediately, or growing to thicknesses of a few meters where the sur face would be cool, and the whole solid dense enough to sink. This process must go on until the sunk portions of crust build up from the bottom a sufficiently close ribbed skele ton or frame to allow fresh incrustations to remain,bridging across the now small areas of lava-pool or lakes.” That is a striking picture of the growth of the “round earth,” which was once sup posed to have been made from the first “so fast that it eau not be moved.” We are rather *orry to be robbed of the belief of the central lava ocean after all. COLUMBUS, GA., TUESDAY MORNING, OCTOBER 17, 1876. THE TURKISH SITUATION. ■" ■" ■ The Times Appeals to 6ermany to Prevent a Tremendous War. HIMNIi AMD KERVIA AtiAINST THE ARMISTICE. PROSPECT OP PEACE NOT FLATTERING. London, Oct. IC.— The Times, in a grave article on the situation, con cludes: “The Turkish rulers have, we fear, determined not to yield much more, and Russia may soon be at the mercy of the storm she has raised. It is not too late to keep Russia back. If any country can thus save the world from a tremen dous war, it is Gortnany.” The Standard's Vienna dispatch says Turkish statesmen desire peace, but not with dishonor. The major ity agree that if foreigu pressure be comes intolerable, they might pre fer separate terms with Russia. London, Oct 16.—The Times to-day publishes the full text of the note in which Turkey offered six months ar mistice, all the details of which have already been telegraphed to the United States. The Paris correspondent of that paper, commenting thereon, says the note is conciliating, submissive and almost humble. The Times, in a leading editorial article, says : “Turkey could not pos sibly have been more conciliatory. The note judiciously abstains from denouncing tho foreign volunteers as Russians; there is nothing in it at which Russia or any other power could reasonably tako offence.” The Times further says: “Tho fact of Russia’s having reverted to de mands originally made by England would be encouraging if we could regard with confidence tho animus which prompted this course.” Paris, Oct. 16.— Le Temps publishes a summary, which it believes to be accurate, of Prince Gortschakoff’s circular to Russian representatives abroad, in reply to T urkey’s offer of six months armistice. Prince Gort schakoff points out that no durable peace could proceed from the Turk ish proposal. Sorvia and Montene gro could not be expected to remain so long in a critical condition. He concludes with the statement that Russia is disposed to insist upon an armistiee of a month or six weeks, which might be extended if prog ress of negotiotions rendered it neces sary. London, Oct. 16.— The Times Paris correspondent points to the fact that this is the first time!Russia has clear ly accepted solidarity with Servia and MontenegJo. In advising them to reject the Turkish proposition, she has accepted the responsibility of such refusal. The Times’ dispatch from Berlin, Sunday morning, announces that the Russian objections to Turkey’s propo sition are stated in a calm argumen tative tone, indicating a desire for negotiation. There seems to be no danger of an immediate collision. Pesther Lloyd, newspaper, reports that Mr. Ristios, the Servian Prime Minister, has informed the English Consul at Belgrade that Servia would consent to an armistice till Decem ber 31st. The Daily News has a special from Belgrade, which says; “Servia is willing to accept the status quo, pro vided the Turks guarantees for the proper government of Bosnia. But Servia will not consent to any armis tice longer than December 31st. If that is rejected now, she does not bind herself to accept it at any future time.” The prospect of an armistice or peace is not flattering. London, Oct. 16.— Reuter’s dispatch from Belgrade says; is generally believed hero and at Deligrade that the Turks will break through the line of the Duia, upon which they have been continually making at tacks during the last few days. Yes terday the Turks attacked tho Ser vian position at Ljubonja for six hours. The attack was repulsed. The Servian General Novassezoff has telegraphed to headquarters an nouncing that a battle is impending at Javor. An armistice is considered impos sible. Ragusa, Oct. 16.— Dervish Pasha having received reinforcements, suc ceeded in repelling an attack on Pad goritza which was commenced by five battalions of Montenegrins. Vienna, Oct. 16—The semi-official Montags Viennie commenting on the Porte’s proposal of the six months armistice, says; The armistice is evidently too extended, but the greater period implies the loss, and the Porte’s has incontestibly fulfilled the requirements of the powers. Any how, the Turkish proposal does away with all question of occupation, in tervention, naval demonstration or rupture of diplomatic relations. Two Death* Caused by a Suicide.

New York, Oct. 16.—Charles Sedg wick Hunt, a well known journalist, died here yesterday of inflammation of the brain. He was 34 years old. Two thieves were caught by the police, last night in H. B.

Sergeant Patrick O’Donhue and Corporal Michael McFlannagan, of the regular army, would much sooner assist the Ku- Klux in abusing negroes than in protecting them from the outrageous treatment of disaffected and unre constructed rebels. ANOTHER COTTON CROP REPORT. THE AGRICULTURAL BUREAU AT WASH INGTON TRIES ITS HAND. , Washington, Oct. 16.— (Official,).— The reports to the Department of Agriculture indicate a reduction of the condition of cotton during the past month in the ten principal cot ton States from an average of 923 to 821-7. The October average for these States was 88 in 1875, and 71J in 1874. The decline from September is slight in Georgia, Florida and Mis sissippi, greater in Louisiana and Arkansas, and greatest in Alabama and Tonnesse. There is a small ad vance in Texas. The figures for the condition of the States are as follows: North Caro lina 84; South Carolina 80; Georgia 85; Florida 80; Alabama 70; Missis sippi 83 ; Louisiana 82 ; Texas 91; Arkansas 86 ; Tennessee 91. The diminution of crop prospects hus been caused by the equinoctial storm in North Carolina, drought and rust in Georgia,the caterpillar in Flor ida and Alabama, the boll worm in Arkansas, and frost in Tennesse. Tho caterpiller is confined to the southern portion of tho gulf States. Its depredations aro most severe in Alabama and in most of the infected districts its reproduction was too late to destroy more than the top crop. TEEECiRAPHIC SUMMARY, There was ice in the gutters of Washington City yesterday. Judge Charles Moran, one of the oldest and wealthiest citizens of De troit, died suddenly on Sunday.

The Vatican has really gone into the bu siness of railway building, and in the course of a few months it is not im probable people who desire to pay a visit to Palestine will bo able to visit tho various points of religious and historical interest there with ‘'bag gage checked through,” and without the tedions intervention of pack horses and mules. At all events, one Signor I’ierotti has just been to Rome and obtained from tho Pope his official sanction for carrying out the enterprise (already sanctioned by tho Sultan) of making a port of Jaffa and constructing a railway from there to Jerusalem, a distance of some miles. Encouraged thus, Signor Plerotti has addressed a circular to the wealthier and more distinguish ed Catholics throughout the world soliciting subscriptions in aid of the enterprise. The prospectus is a novel one in some respects. It is proposed to obtain 100 foundation members, whoso names, with the amount of their respective offerings, are to be published at the head of a prospectus inviting Catholics of all uations to cqnstituto themselves shareholders, and draw their divi dends in tho form of feelings of sat isfaction at having assisted by their subscriptions, however small these may be, in the formation of a port and railway intended to facilitate pilgrims traveling to Jerusalem, and pilgrimages to the sanctua ries and holy places, and in planting Catholic colonies and agricultural and industrial establish ments in Palestine, to which latter aims the profits of the railway and port are to be devoted. Thero is no reason to suppose tho project will fall through for want of capital. When the religious feeling is enlisted in a material enterprise of any kind, the scheme is tolerably certain of success. We have no doubt a rail way lik this, under proper manage ment, could be made to pay hand some dividents, even of a more tan gible character than those to which Signor Pierettl alludes. As it is Dot to be supposed that the Sultan would have given his author ization were it to be run in the interests of one sect to the ox elusion of others, or to tho exclusion of travelers who are not pilgrims, it must receive a liberal patronage from the vast number of tourists and exoursionistt who annually make Palestine their objective point. The railroad would unquestionably stim ulate this kind of travel, and by that means a trade would be developed along the line which would in various ways wonderfully hasten the establishment of those agri cultural and industrial estab lishments to which it is to be subsidiary. Wo shall study the pro gress of tho enterprise with the same curious interest which attaches to tho railroad experiment British Capi talists are making in tho vicinity of Canton, China. There is nothing like the iron horse for stirring up these old civilizations and reopening to modern enterprise channels of traffic and travel which have been closed, it may be said, almost from time immemorial.— N.
