EISLAND AKD VHKW4H.
We published yesterday a tele
graphio synopsis of the comments ef
the London press on the manifesto
of the Russian Czar, They are so
disapprobatory os to lndlcata a state
of feelllff in England which It would
bo easy to excite to war with Russia.
It will be observed, however, that
the great cause of complaint Is that
the Czar did not, In his manifesto,
repeat assurances that Russia sought
no acquisition of territory. This
fact takes the point from the British
censure. The protest is not a manly
one against the right of other, na
tions to interfere with the
internal government of Turkey
—a protest which wocould havo hear
tily approved; it is not a candid
acknowledgment of the duty of En
gland, as a party to the Treaty of
Paris, to maintain the territorial in
tegrity and right of self-government
of Turkey. Butitisonly the frantic
expression of a fear that Russia will
so extend her power as to enable her
to Interpose between England and
her conquests In Asia-a fear that
Russia will obtain on the Mediter
ranean a foothold and influence like
that which Great Britain has ob
tained on the Indian ocean. The
British policy, as disclosed in these
protests, is shown to bo one of self
interest only, and does not rise to
the dignity ol’ a regard for Turkish
rights or any of the rights of nations
or humanity. It reminds us that
•■Earth ig nick, and Heaven is weary of the hol
low sounds
Which men and nation* make whene’er they
■poak
Of truth and justice.”
Why should Russia bind herself
not to make any territorial conquests
In Turkey? She does not know wbat
necessities the war may bring about
—what measures may become neces
sary to bring It to a close honorable
and advantageous to her. Besides,
would It be good policy for her to ad
vise Turkey at the outset that she
need fear no loss of her territory?
Would not this encourage Turkey to
make a stouter resistance and to pro
long the contest even after the Rus
sian armies bad pushed their way
far into her dominions? If the other
“powers” of Europe admit the right
of Russia to demand and enforce guar
antees for the good treatment of the
Christians in Turkey, but at the same
time deny Russia's right to occupy and
hold territory as a means of securing
their good treatment, they ought to
have joined her in an energetio de
mand on Turkey, and not left her to
proceed alone. If Russia, or if the
powers collectively, have the right to
interfere with Turkey’s government
of her Christian principalities, they
ought to have the choice of the modes
of interference; and if the other pow
ers devolve the work on Russia sing
ly, or resign it to her, they ought at
the same time to leave to her the
adoption of measures best calculated
to seoure the end. Either she has no
right to Interfere with Turkey, orsho
has the right to make her interfer
ence effectual.
-
WMTEItV FEVER—ITS CAUSE-ITS
CURE.
For several years past there has
been a constant iuclinatioa and de
sire among a certain class of young
men to quit their Georgia homes to
seek their .• fortunes and cast their
lots in tho Lone Star State. Perhaps,
beforo proceeding further, it would
be well to consider a few of the prin
cipal causes of this Western fever—
its effects—and its cure. Strange to
say, that during the ante helium days
there was a class of Southern parents
who neglected the important duty of
teaching their sons the necessity
of manual labor. They ignor
ed the idea that their sons
should ever bocomo real tollers of the
soil. But at the close of the late dis
astrous war they found their proper
ty taken from them, and that a very
disorganized state of labor prevailed.
They found that they were left at the
rueroy of personal efforts—that the
hands which for years had been en
cased In buck-skin must now be ex
posed to the bright sun and the gen
tle zephyr. Still unwilling to per
form bard, continued, manual labor,
unwilling to bear tho honorable
mark—hard hands and a sun-burned
face, they soon flooded tho profes
sional world. This being crowded,
others were obliged to soek other
sources, and in this state of uncer
tainty they were seized upon by the
Western fever—tbisbeing contagious
continues to spread even to the
present day.
While under tho Influence of this
fever they" hAve giVne to Texas, ex
pecting to find money in an abun
dance at their opmmaud. But they
hove a mistaken idea of the West,
aqd only by experience will they be
the tfue cf>f of that sec
tion.
Ido nbt remember to have ever
heard a plausible reason why a young
man should desire to leave Georgia
and go West tp live. They often say
the land in Georgia is too poor, it is
impossible for a young man to rise
hero; we vMll -go West where the
land is rich, and where geld is plenti
ful and all we have to do is to ask
and receive. With such line ideas
and reasons they excuse themselves
and go West. But, young men, you
art* mistaken when you say you cun
not succeed in Georgia. I know
thereof I speak. Look at your
neighbor’s son, who is not ashamed
of htfnda and a sun-burned face
—who dispenses with the oigar and
all other unnecessary luxuries. He
seems to be doing well. His credit is
good for any reasonable amount; his
property is not mehtioned in the col
umn of the sheriff’s advertisements j
he does not fear the dun of the col
lector. Still you say a young man
oan not rise here! At the same time
you have a mistaken idea of Texas.
It is true that in some portions of
Texas, the land Is very fertile; but
the supposed gold that lay scattered
upon the surface of the earth, has
beeu collected by those who preceded
you.
Greenbacks do not grow on trees,
as has been stated by emigrant
agents. How many young men bave
gone West? How many have suc
ceeded? How many have returned?
How many would return if thoy were
able pecuniarily? Those who return
ed have lost period in their lives
which they can not recover;’ Many
bave lost strong constitutions and
good moral character. This Is pay
ing too dearly for a trip to Texas.
Time, constitution und character are
too valuable to bo thrown away in
this manner. Don’t run tho risk,
young friends.
Forget your ancient aristocracy,
and go to work with cheerful hearts
and willing hands, to retrieve your
lost fortunes und rebuild the waste
places among you. Htay where you
are, and remember that there is more
in the man than in the country.
Departing from the main subject
under consideration, I congratulate
tho Times qn its Increasing populari
ty among tho farmers of Talbot. Its
Increase in interest and circulation
has been marvelous since it came
into the hands of its present mana
gers. It defends its constituents in
a manner highly creditable to all
concerned. Continued success is
my prediction. N’lmpobte.

The Failure* In flic Houtli
The Circular of Messrs R. G. Dun &
Cos. giving the number of failures in the
United States during the lust three months
shows that Georgia lias suffered less than
uny State in the Union. The following
table sltsws the failures in this
State for the time mentioned :
Flint quarter, 1H75 $1,097,000
First quarter, lsifl 2.050.U00
First quarters 1877 484,000
These figures show a desrease of seven
ly-Jive per cent for thin year as compar
ed with the failures of the first quarter Of
1876. North Carolina comes next with a
decrease of sixty per cent., and Rhode
Island next with a decrease of thirty per
cent.—South Carolina shows a small in
crease in number and amount of failures,
the figures being as follows :
First quarter In 1877 42 $792,260
First quarter iu 1870 40 725 Bf>B
First quarter lu 1875 61
The following table shows the amount
of failures in each Southern State lor the

witli the failures for the first quarter of
last year. We have compiled it carefully

Thirty Millions nt Hollars Lost In the
Panic.
Correspoadcuco St. Louis Republican.]
The recent,events in Wall street (an
“event” hero generally means a
smash of somo sort) havo produced
the usual results. Fortunes swept
away and millionaires laid on their
backs. Report says that John F.
Tracey, late President of the Chicago
& Rock Island Road, who was at the
head of the Northwest pool that
broke Kennedy & Cos., has lost every
thing. He was reputed worth bo
tween three and four millions. The
total losses by the great break in the
coal stocks and others con
nected with them cannot be short of
$30,000,000. The street is now in a
demoralized condition, and I do not
see any reason to expect an early
improvement. Jay Gould is the only
leader who has lately made auy
money. Death to the Lulls is fun to
him, and every calamity to others
makes him a richer man. Gould
himself goes tumbling to destruc
tion some fine day. They all wind
up that way one day or another,
and if Gould escapes it will be the
first, time on record of a great bear
on Wall street without leaving most
of his hair behind him.
Science Extraordinary.
Mr. Darwin, in writing on the "Ab
sence of White Color in Animals,”
mentions a poisonous plant growing
in Virginia, which kills white-haired
swine, but does not kill those with
black hair. Dr. Ogle says iu explan
ation of this fact, that there is no ev
idence that the black swine eat the
plant, and that, as a matter of fact,
the white swine, because they are
not supplied with a certain black
pigment, necessary to the possession
of taste and smell, are deficient in
both tastes, and are therefore unable
to discriminate between poisonous
and non-poisonous plants which the
black pigs with better taste, refuse
to ent. A correspondent of one
Scientific American writes to say that
ho does not know anything about
the effects of poisonous plants to the
pqr or Virginia, but that there is a
poisonous plant in Florida, upon
which black hogs fatten, while those
with white hoofs, after eating it, be
come lame, and their hoofo drop off.
He says that, "if a hog has three
black boors and one white, the
white one will fall off,” and leaves us
to conclude that the blaek hoofs will
stay od. These hog stories have now
advanced far enough to make it
worth while for someone to make
very sure of the facts before under
taking to explain them.
Many country merchants in tho in
terior of the Western States are in
the habit of making their remittances
in postage stamps, much to the an
noyance of wholesale dealers, who
cannot readily disifose of them. This
custom reveals the secret of the de
sire for unsalaried post masterships.
The percentage allowed for the sale
of stumps is large, so that, by divi
ding the postmaster makes a neat
sum, and the merchant gains a goodly
discount. On a sale of SSO worth of
stamps the Postmaster receives from
30 to 60 per cent; and if he gives the
country merchant one-third of his
profit, the latter gets bis S6O worth
of goods for S4O by paying for them
In stamps, and the Postmaster coolly
pockets S2O. This procedure is
against the rules of the department,
and efforts are beiDg made to ferret
out the transactions.—AT. Y. Sun.

The old fort at Bt. Augustine, Fla., has
for over two years been occupied by
Indians sent there from the West, where
they had been guilty of atrocities. They
were a savage, degraded lot when they
arrived there, hut the women of St. Au
gustine flt once began the seemingly hope
less task of teaching them good behavior.
Mrs. Harriet Beecher Stowe, who recent
ly visited them, says: “The bell rang for
school hours, and hurrying from all
quurters Caine dark men iu Uuiled States
uniform, neat, compact, trim, with well
brushed hoots anil nicely kept clothing,
and hooks in their hands. Lerge spell
ing cards adorned one side of the wall,
containing various pictures and object
lessons adapted to the earliest stages of
learning. The Indian is naturally stern
and hard, hut us they gathered round
their teacher aud returned her morning
greeting the smiles on those faces made
them seem even handsome. When they
read in concert, when they mastered per
fectly the pronunciation of a difficult
word, when they gave the right answer
to a question, they were evidently delight
ed.” Mrs. Stowe is convinced that the
worst of Indians may be civilized. That
they readily learn commercial ways is
shown by the fact that this St. Augustine
party has made and sold trickets amount
ing to $5,000.

Shumla.— The strongest and most
important Turkish froutier fortress,
in the way by which the Russian
army is apparently coming, is Shum
la, located in Bulgaria, 47 miles from
Varna, on the Black Bea, near the
railroad leading from Varna to Rust
ehuk. Shumla is situated in a gorge
on tho northern declivity of the Bal
kan Mountains, on tho direct route
from Roumauiu to Constantinople,
and is regarded as the key to the
latter city. Tho fortifications aro un
usually strong; they resisted the
Russian assault in 1774,1810 and 1828.
It is very likely that the Turks will
make a desperate struggle north of
the Varna & Rustchuk railroad,which
runs a few miles north of Übumla.
Shumla has a population of 25,000 to
30,000, and is quite a manufacturing
town.

to the next session for Increasing tbe fa

importations are for actual use only by
the importers, and are not to bo offered
for sale. If such a'blii is passed It is sta
ted that tho machinery of two English
companies will bn transferred to Colum

loading points in all the cotton growing

vor the scheme.
TheSoutbern Pacific rails are being
laid within twenty-live miles of Fort
Yuma, and by May Ist, if all goes
welt the locomotives will be scream

feat in the modern railway building
can equal the speed with which this
road has been pushed through. The
road was begun scarcely three years
ago. After a year’s work, iu which
about one hundred and forty miles
were built, there was an interval of
six months. Then work was resum
ed quietly and without attracting
public attention. To-day the rails
are laid and the cars running a dist
