On Tuesday last, la a personal ren

Mr. Towssisd, of Illinois, wishes
the Commutes on Banking and Cur

of winding up the national banks,
withdrawing their circulation, and
substituting in lieu thereof green
backs or other similar currency.
The Senatorial Convention of the
36th District, which nominated F. M.
Duncan, of Douglas county, for Sen
ator, unanimously adopted a resolu
tion In favor of Atlanta as the capi
tal. The district Is composed of the
counties of Coweta, Campbell, Doug
las and Meriwether.
The registration in the city of
Charleston closed on Tuesday. The
lists show 5,186 whites and 1,653
colored—white majority 543. At the
election last fail Hampton beat
Chamberlain 15 votes in Charleston,
bat we believe that it was not count
ed that way.
The Illinois State Board of Agricul
ture reports that the corn crop in
that State this rear is 301,616.473
bushels. At thirty cents a bushel,
which is a low average, the crop
brings the farmers #30,493,031. The
acreage planted was 8,935,411, the
average product per acre being over
thirty-three bushels.
Tee majority of the Republican
Senators made an issue with the
President on the nomination of John
L. Stephens, of Maine, as Minister
resident at Stockholm. But "the
Democrats voted for him, and with
the Republican minority ratified his
nomination. The New York Times
regards this case as showing that It
will require a united Republican vote
to defeat any of She President’s nom
inations.
The New Y'ork Sun is still distressing
itself about Minister Welsh’S owning
slaves in Cuba. It sent an Iniuiry
on the subject to the island, and has
received a dispatch from Sagua, to
the effect that Mora, Ona, S. & W.
Welsh appear as owners of the estate
on which the slaves worked. The
Sun contends that when-an estate is
sold in Cuba the slaves go with it;
also, that John Welsh is a member
of the firm of S. &W. Welsh. This
Is terrible—it la to be feared that It
will postpone the millennium at least
a thousand years.
The Griffin Mews reports the death
by suicide, of Miss Hammili, an or
phan young lady, living with the
family of Mr. Hugh Carmichael, of
Butts county. On Monday night last
she took strychnine from a vial of the
poison that had been purchased six
or seven years before to kill rats.
When her deadly sickness was dis
covered, sho told that she had taken
the poison, but refused to tell her
reasons, and no cause is known. She
is said to have been an estimable
young lady, about eighteen years of
age.
If the D. S. Government will take
its own obligations in, payment of
custom dues, it will do more to se
cure resumption of specie payments,
than John Shertnan and forced con
traction of the currency con accom
plish in a thousand years.—Mont
gomery Advertiser.
That is the trub in a nut shell.
The Government’s paper can never
be quite'ns good as gold so long as
the Government itself refuses to take
it for #150,000,000 or #300,000,000 of
customs dues every year, and re
quires gold instead. Let it change
this policy, and the slight difference
now existing between gold and
greenbacks will be overcome without
any impotent Resumption act.
Major R. J. Moans.—This gentle
man, as will be seen by his note
publised elsewhere, positvely de
clines a re-election to the Legisla
ture. The people of Muscogee eonn
ty will regret this, as he has repre
sented them so ably and faithfully,
and his ripe experience and sound
judgment would have been valuable
to the whole State in the next Legis
lature, whose sessions promise to be
so important. But we have already
in the field three gentleman of tal
ent and popularity, all of whom are
well qualified to make Representa
tives who will be a credit to the

THE not til 4811 mxmCTI EIH
We have seldom seen more errors
in reference to important facts
| crowded into the same space than
are contained in the following asser
tions of the Mew England Manufactu
rer-.
Tlio South has plenty of water-power,
but it is wholly unimproved, and to Im
prove it would coet more than New Mar
land power equally * good anti ready to
bn uned cun be bought for, ifld until the
improved water-power in New Knglund Is
ail tn use, that of the South la not worth
taking the gift of. In the South the soli
and climate are of such a character that
work upon the land will give better wages
than any manufacturer can afford to pay,
and this fact alone renders It impossible
for that section to engage largely lo
manufacturing. Again, the character ot
the Southern people unfits them for the
service which a factory requires. The
only people there who do what we call a
day’s work, that is, who work ten or
eleven hours In succession, are the
negroes, who cannot be good mill hands.
Georgia alone has at Columbus
and Augusta an amount of water
power already controlled equal to
that of Fall River or Lowell, besides
an almost unlimited power as easily
improved or controlled as any water
in the country.
As to the relative value of the water
power of the two sections, the South
and New England, we have yet to
bear of the suspension this year of a
single cotton factory at the South, or
their running short time, while many
in New Eagland have been compell
ed to suspend or curtail operations.
So much for the assertion that “until
the improved water-power in New
F.ngiand is ali in use, that of the
South is not worth taking the gift
of.” We do not believe that there
la a manufacturing property in New
England a3 valuable as the Eagle &
Phenix property of Columbus, takiog
into consideration both present and
prospective business and profits.
In the South there are many thou
sands of both males and females who
cannot and do not work in the fields,
who are capacitated to make as skill
ful factory operatives as any in New
England, and they only want the op
portunity to engage in manufactur
ing. The fact is, field labor is low
here, because farming is hardly re
munerative, while manufacturing
with proper management has gener
ally been a success.
The climate of the South, as attest
ed by all cotton manufacturers who
have tried both sections, is much
better adapted to the business than
that of New England, and more
hours work can be done in a day.
Less fuel and artificial light is re
quired, and neither ico nor the se
verity of the weather ever interrupts
operations.
The assertion that only the negroes
of the South can do a day’s work of
ten or eleven hours is a slander upon
our people. More whites than blacks
at the South work so many hours in
the day, and many who do so are
weak females or infirm men, who
would make excellent hands in a cot
ton factory.
The truth is that the South, which
grows the cotton, and which can
turn it into cloth without ever pack
ing the lint into bales, is pre-emi
nently the region for successful cot
ton manufacturing, and we fondly
cherish the hope that before many
years this section will be the chief
seat of cotton manufacture in this
country. Then New England, which
has so long prospered by doing for
us what we ought to do for our
selves, will realize the fact that “the
sceptre has departed frota Judah.”
THR PACIFIC RAILRUUW.
A proposition was introduced into
Congress, the other day, to set apart
ail the moneys which the Govern
ment may derive from the Pacific
Railroads, to be devoted to other
internal improvements, and to con
fine appropriations hereafter for
such works to the amount of this
fund.
This we regard as equivalent to an
indefinite suspension of ali appropri
ations for internal improvement by
the General Government, and we
would not be Inclined to oppose It if
we belived that the plan would be
adhered to. The Government
will be fortunate if it es
capes having to pay the interest on
the bonds of the Pacific roads which
it has endorsed, much less deriving
revenue from them. We notice that
Senator Chaffee. the ether May, in
attacking the management of the
Union Pacific Railroad, stated a fact
which does not give promise of its
ability soon to contribute anything
to the national treasury. He stated
that the refusal of the Union Pacific
to pro-rate with the branch roads,
and its unlawful discriminations,
have forced one of these roads into
the hands of a receiver and will make
it impossible for any of them to re
pay the Government unless some
thing is done at Washington for their
relief. The excises put forward by
the Union Pacific are, in the Sena
tor's opinion, no excuse at all, being
contradicted by the known facts.
Its discrimination against local trav
el and freight bears very heavily
upon the people of his own and
neighboring States, and he Insists
j that, by its continued failure and
; persistent refusal to keep its agree
i ments with the Government, the
company has forfeited all its corpo
rate rights. Thus far. he says, it has
defied all three departments of the
Government with impunity.
The Sews publishes a letter from
one the commissioners of the Fceed
men’s Bank to John H, Deveaux of
Savannah, in which he states that
the commisioners have secured
friends enough to pay a dividend of
tea per cent, to the depositors in that
j institution, and hope to pay fifteen
! per cent, within a month or six
: weeks.
The Hayneville Examiner edited,
by Auditor Brewer, thinks that the
! Moffett register in Alabama would
: bring $250,000 into the treasury. This
1 sum, it says, is more than Albuama
will pay on her funded debt this fis
cal year byprobabiy $20,000. and it is
! only a tittle short of the $267,000 she
will pay (except poll tax) for her
public schools for the scholastic year
1878,
suss MOUK* nrri.ivEH
Messrs. Editors : If the card signed
"Many Voters” bad been the only
application that I have had made to
me to run for the Legislature, I
should think it unnecessary to reply.
But as I have beeu frequently and
earnestly solicited to make the race,
I think It as well to say, once for all,
that nothing but a matter of public
duty would induce me to undergo
again the labors which devolved on
me at the last session.
Both Mr. Garrard and Mr. Craw
ford enquired of me, before they an
nounced themselves, whetbeT I would
be a candidate-and I not only told
them I would not, but I stand pledged
to their support with whatever little
personal influence I may have. They
are both capable; they are young
men identified with the interests of
the county —and I have no doubt it
will be their ambition, as it will be
their duty, to maintain the honor
and promote the prosperity of Mus
cogee. Under these circumstances,
I feel assured that there is no public
exigency that requires from me a
sacrifice of my private interests,
which Imperatively demand my per
sonal attention.
To such of my friends as have man
ifested a desire to have me return to
the Legislature, I extend my earnest
thanks ; but, for the reasons given, I
must decline the candidacy.
Respectfully. B. J. Moses.
LETTER FROM WASHINGTON.
SPEECHE*I OF FELTON AND
HELL.
lend Cortlnn and Harris Bark.
THE PHESIDENT AND HIS BADIDAL OPPO
NENTS.
Washington, Nov. 15th 1877.
Editor Times: Enclosed please
find extracts from the Sunday Herald
(Washington) and N. Y. Herald. The
former refers to the advisability of
sending Gen. Gordon back to the
Senate which it is to be hoped will be
done by acclamation. And the latter
a synopsis of the able speech made
by Mr. Beil (ot Ga.,) and of the great
speech delivered by Hon. Wm. H.
Felton (of Ga.,) yesterday. This
speech is pronounced by the majori
ty of the House to be the finest effort
made in Congress this session. Mem
bers crowded near to hear what he
had to say, and at its conclusion, he
was warmly congratulated by a
great many Western and Southern
Democrats. One delegate—a Vir
ginian-crossed the hall while he was
speaking and said to him : “I’ve left
my seat to hear you, Doctor; go
ahead, give'em !” Eight thou
sand copies, lam told, were ordered
by various members before leav
ing the Chamber. Telegrams
concerning it were sent to the Cin
cinnati Enquirer and other promi
nent papers in the West, and thous
ands of copies will bo distributed in
the West. I shall send you a num
ber for distribution to your subscri
bers.
I cannot close without referring to I
our own immediate Representative, j
Hon. H. R. Harris. I do not think
the District can do better than to
keep him here. He is influential,
able, particularly courteous-ever
ready te do all iu his power for his
constituents and for Georgia, and is
as fine a type of the true Southern
gentleman as can be found in either
of the Houses of Congress. Send
Gordon and Harris back.
The President deserves well of
the South, and I believe is stronger
there than in any part of this Union.
If he does not gratify all Southern
office-seekers, he has good reasons
for not doing it too rapidly. His ob
ject is to give peace to this distracted
country, bring about reconciliation
between the sections lately at war
with each other, and thus ensure
speedy aDd durable prosperity. He
will succeed better by continuing as
he has done, and private resentments
will fall before an enlightened pub
licopinion, which already approves
his course from the Atlantic to the
Pacific. The Republican Senate can
no more justly dictate that he shall
not appoint Democrats to office, than
a Democratic Senate (which we will
have in less than two years) caQ dic
tate that he shall not appoint Re
publicans to office. Conkiing made
a colossal mistake by expressing
himself us he did to the New York
Herald reporter, and there is an ab
sence of candor in his denial in the
Senate which fails to convince the
public. Grant’s government was a
personal one and appointments were
solely on personal and partisan
grounds. Hayes aid his Cabinet ex
amine closely before giving any im
portant appointment, and nooa ’ can
question the capacity or his appoint
ments thus far.
When he said to Senatur Edmunds,
who came to represent the B‘publi
can Senators, *‘l appointed a South
ern Democrat-Key—to be Postmas
ter General, and no one has said that
he is not an efficient officer. I ap
pointed Mr. Hilliard Minister to
Brazil because I thought him com
petent and that the South should
have a diplomatic representative,”—
he explained his “policy” in a nut
shell. He will be a strictly Consti
tutional Executive, as he has been,
but those who knew him as Governor
of Ohio, three times chosen, claim
him to be a strong, sincere and fair
minded man.
There is one thing certain, to wit:
the South can never feel a national
spirit which the whole country pro
fesses to desire—until her represen
tative men are fully and unqualified
ly recognized as worthy of trust.
Until this is done, and she has an
equal participation in the affairs'" of
government, abroad as well as at
home, this national spirit is opposed
to the national order of things. Mr.
Hilliard and Col. Fitzsimmons will
propably be oongrmed, which will
prove that the President is stronger
than the Senata dictatorial faction.
F. F.
A Corn € Tina rtf*.
It occurred to Messrs* Tildeo and
Hewitt, during their European tour,
that the people of the Old World only
needed a little stimulus to understand
and appreciate the value and wbole
somenesa of corn bread. To that end
it has beeu suggested by Sir. Hewitt
to establish an American kitchen in
the Paris exhibition building, the
principal attraction of which shall
be, not pork and beans, but corn
bread. A Urst-class Southern female '
.cook, of the black persuasion, is also
recommended a the necessary ad- (
junecofthe culinary establishment.
Now, at first blush, this looks pre
posterous ; but tn reality there is a .
deep and far-pervading commercial j
scheme at the bottom of it. It means j
nothiug more or less than the devel
opment of a great industry and the;
outlet for a splendid agricultural
product, so little known or esteemed |
abroad. The annual product of In- [
dian corn in the United States is i
more than 1,000,000,000 bushels. Of j
this enormous yield, which could be
easily trebled, if need be, only So.iwo,-
000 bushels go abroad. The arith- j
metical and rhetorical figures are j
happily blended by "Gath” thus:
“borne little while ago I was travel
ing through an old part of Maryland,
and I saw from the railroad car win
dow a negro man stripping the eorn
ears from the growing stalk and
throwing them upon a distant pile. |
As each ear lert his careless hand it !
flashed like a golden bar. Through
the Autumn field, where the persim I
mons only gleamed like copper;
apples along the fence lines, these
piles of corn-ears shone on the thin I
sandy soil plentiful as heaps of ashes J
in the alleys of the city. I thought,
to myself: "If each golden ear of
corn was real gold and nothing grew
but gold where now is corn, how the
negro would give it ail for one ear of
what he rejeers so deftly!” Yet this
negro in America was a King Midas.
He could plant and cultivate a whole
field, yes, a whole farm of corn, little
knowing that in India eorr> is gold
and famine is the law. The story of
Midas is that he asked the tipsy god
Silenus, schoolmaster of Bacchus, to
give him the alchemic gift of turn
ing every thing to gold. When it j
was granted his bread was turned to I
ingots and his corn to ore. Mr.!
Hewitt desires to exchange some of
our surplus of 1,390.000,000 bushels of
corn to gold or credit, with Europe,
At fifty cents a bushel, here is #645,-'
000,000.”
Instead of laughing at Mr. Hewitt, :
the fervid “Gath” exalts his horn as
well as com, and winds up with the
following sonorous blast: “This is
statesmanship. This is the sort of ]
man to send to Congress, not a soph- |
otnorio demagogue who blows about;
wbat neither he nor the people un
derstand, and even in the opposition
is without respectable motives. Ad
vance the price of an ear of corn!
That is what you are sent to Congress
fori And take care that you don’t
get off too far on the definition of
price. Keep well down to the ear,
and as we propose to exchange this
corn with Euro;>e, perhaps we’il want
for it the best money they can jwiy.”
