ABOUND IB GEORGIA.
Mbs. M. J. Kenan, of Macon, died
on Monday.
Fine peacbee sold in Sandersville
last week at 15 cents per bushel.
Macon hotels are making prepara
tions for a great rush during the
State fair.
Tax Sparta hknuulile says the leg
islature does not seem willing to trust
the people of the State to settle the
liquor question by an appeal to the
ballot box.
Sparta Ishmaelite; We are grati
fled to know of the improved health
of Bishop O. F. Pierce. His eloquent
voice is regaining something of its
old fullness.
Savannah Tinies; We have not
heard of either Oolumbus or Augusta
crying out for an artesian well. How
ever they have a few moments left
to step forward and claim one. It
may be that water is not a popular
article of refreshment in those "Lo
wells’’ of Georgia.
Ambbuus Recorder: Friday we saw
an engine, boiler &c., upon our
streets on its way to the country. It
was the property of a well-to-do col
ored man, Tom Powell, of Schley
county. Tom is the owner of a good
and large farm all paid for, with sev
eral head of stook, and he is now
erecting a steam gin for himself
and neighbors.
The Boston editor of the Thomas
ville Times says: "A curious acci
dent happened to Dr. Culpepper the
other day, by which the Doctor came
near being seriously disabled. He
was mixing in a bottle some salisillc
acid and bicarbonate soda, when the
bottle exploded, and pieces of glass
were driven into bis band, producing
a serious wound.”
Augusta Chronicle; A difficulty oc
curred yesterday afternoon, at the
corner of Eighth and Ellis streets,
between Willie White and Richard
Davis, colored boys, between ten and
twelve years of age, in which the
latter was painfully cut about the
back end shoulders by a pocket knife
in the hands of the former. White
was arrested and Davis was sent to
the hospital.
Roms Tribune; "We learn that the
washerwomen of Rome have orga
nized a union and will shortly an
nounce a determination to charge *a
dollar a dozen.’ It is, therefore, like
ly that Romo will suffer the experi
ence of Atlanta and that a steam
laudry and Yankee girls will be balled
on to remedy the affair, "the move,
judging from Its fate in other
places, will not prove a success in
Rome.
Washington Goyette : "Some of the
country butter brought to this place
is adulterated to a great extent with
tallow aha other foreign substances.
Os course housekeepers can readily
detect the fraud, but sometimes they
are inveigled into buying the tai for
the good without first examining it.
If good butter is put on a plate in the
hot sun with tallow-butter, the good
will met while the other stands as
firm is ever.”
■Savannah A’tiws: We learn that on
Sunday afternoon a party who were
fishing near MBht’a Bock caught a
very large shark frith two small fish
hooks, and aueweded In towlog thwr
prize close to gfiore, when opd'bt'We
young men akllffully struck him in
thetbrot with a’keen bladed knife,
killing him. The monster was
hauled on shore and found to
measure seven feet. It was after
wards carried to Thunderbolt.
Dublin (lazetle; But a few weeks
ago the mother-in-law of Mr. Henry
A. Joice died; scarcely had the sod
that covered her become dry. ere the
daughter and wife were lowered to
the tomb. But it seemed that the
hand of God had not yet rested UeayL
ly enough upon Henry Joice, for last
week his horse became frightened
while he was riding and threw .him.
Both arms were broken, and ndw
Henry Joice lies a sore, broken-hear
ted man. Surely afflictions come
not alone. Mr. Joice has our truest
sympathy.
Giiufin flews: On Friday night,
Dr. Ellis, of this «to<wp tailed »
see a patient who had developed the
most alarming and remarkable symp
toms. The patient was a colored
man. He exhibited the most utter
aversion to liquids of any kind, es
pecially to water, and almost went
into convulsions when anything of
the kind was brought near him.
Upon inquiry it appeared that twen
ty years ago the man was bitten by
a mad dog, without, however, any
appearance of hydrophobia. The
symptoms now developed are pecu
liarly the symptoms of hydrophobia,
and the case is considered a most
remarkable one. The condition of
the patient yesterday was unchang
ed.
Augusta Chronicle: "A colored wo
man named Charity Shellman, was
sitting on the pavement, next to Mr.
Thomas R. Rhodes’ store, on Monu
ment street, when a ball struck her
In one of her eyes, causing the blood
to gush forth, and completely de
stroying the sight. The poor crea
ture screamed and cried in a piteous
manner. It could not be ascertained
who fired the shot. Much indigna
tion was expressed by those stand
ing around. It is time to put a stop
to the sling shot practice. No ex
ception should be made to the rule.
Every boy found with an Alabama
sling in his posession, be bo white or
black, of high or low degree, should
be severely punished. We trust that
a crusade in the matter will be at
once inaugurated.”
DAILY TIMES: COLUMBUS. GEORGIA. THURSDAY MORNING. AUGUST 25. 1881.
BUCTOBAL KEFOKM IN ENGLAND.
Mr. Jennings In his special cable
: letter tells us the Radicals are urging
Mr. Gladstone so to deal with the
boroughs as to destroy the influence
: which the House of Lords still exer
cises over the Commons and that the
l next session the Premier will proba
! bly bring down a bill for the redis
tribution of seats, together with the
long-promised bill for the assimlla
-1 tion of the borough and county fran
chises. The redistribution bill will
> “crown the edifice” or Reform be
gun in 1832. Before that time the
■ House of Commons was little more
i than an agency of the upper house,
so completely was the so-called popu
lar chamber governed by the rotten
boroughs attached to the estate of
’ the great families. At the be
ginning of this century the Duke
of Norfolk was represented
by eleven members, and Lord Dar
lington by seven. Lord Carrington
and several others had six seats each,
and he was a very unimportant peer
who had not some interest in at least
one member of the lower house. The
Lowthers in the north, the Boscaw
ens in Cornwall, the Temples, the
Percys, the Selwyns, the Somersets
■ and the Russels controlled through
1 their family influence votes enough
to swamp any ministry. Hence the
commons generally reflected the
views of the lords, and the popular
voice could only make itself heard on
the gravest occasions. The lords
had it in their power to exact peer
ages for their friends and relations
and swayed in most cases the home
and foreign policy of the ministry of
the day. Os course they wore not at all
backward in using this tremendous
power for selfish purposes. The
second Lord Falmouth, a Boscawen,
let nothing pass him, from an army
contract to an India clerkship. "No
news this week,” writes Horace Wal
, pole, “not even a fresh place obtain
, ed by Boscawen.” On one occasion
i this nobleman, having helped Pitt
i out of a tight place, demanded the
Garter, Pitt refused it, and as Lord
Falmouth turned angrily upon his
heel and left the room, Pitt, with an
exquisite play on works which can
not be reproduced in translation,
muttered Optat ephippiabos. “What’s
that?” replied Pitt; “the words are
not:mlne they belong to Horace.”
“Well,” said Lord Falmouth, who
knew much more about fox-huntlog
than the classics, “If Horace moans
“anything unkind he’s a ungrate-
ful” cur, for the Boscawens fol*
lowed bis father “Sir Robert
through thick aod thin!”-
Many an improvident nobleman re
cruited his shattered fortunes by the
sale of rotten boroughs. Thus when
Lord Olive wanted a backing in the
House of Commons he secured it by
purchasing seats for nine henchmen.
Warren Hastings bought West Looe,
one of the Cornish boroughs owned
; by the Lemon family, for Major
Scott, his agent. Men who bud made
' a fortune in India during the heroic
age in that country, always wanted a
1 seat in Parliament together with an
1 estate on their return to England.
These were the “nabobs” with whom
the owners of boroughs drove a poflt
' able trade. There was no chaffering
The terms for rental were £I,OOO on
the first day of every year during the
occupancy of the seat, and five or six
years’ purchase would buy the bor
ough outright. Gutton's two seats
were sold for £60,000 to Lord Mun
son’s guardians two years before they
were disfranchised. The borough of
Sudbury advertised itself for sale.
. The corporations of Oxford, being in
' debt to the extent of £5,670, offered
' to sell its two seats to any two gen
, tiemen who would cancel the debt.
The two old members refused, more
, from poverty than superior morality,
i to entertain this offer, and the mayor
> and aidermen are flung into New
gate, but they took their punish
ment so little to heart that while
chore they sold the seats to the Duke
of Marlborough and the Earl of
Abingdon. As late as 1807 Sir Bam’l
Bomiily wrote in this familiar and
, easy strata of the traffic: Tierney,
, who manages this sort of business,
assures me be can bear of no seats
to be disposed of. He has offered
£IO,OOO for the two seats of Westbury,
the property of the late Lord Abing
don, and which are to be made the
, most of for his creditors. The new
, ministers have bought up
; all the seats that were to be dis
posed of.” Romilly, formerly as
he was, bought his own seat for Hor
ham from the Duke of Norfolk.
Down to 1832 the "whips” in the
House and the Secretary of the Treas
nry, on behalf of the Ministry, pub
‘ licly dealt in boroughs with the old
families or corporations that r owned
. them. The defenders of the tact that
J it enabled the political managers to
secure seats for rising young men.
’ Unquestionably Pitt, Palmerston,
, Lord Melbourne aad many other
, eminent statesmen were first intro
( duced to public life through the med
ium of rotten borough. But on the
other hand the people were defraud
' ed out of their share in the govorn
; ment of the country and the nation’s
’ fortunes were at the meroy of a small
privileged class which controlled
Cabinets, monopolized the public aer
( vice and really exercised more power
than the sovereign.
The act of 1832 abolished the rotten
r boroughs and distributed their rep
-1 resentatlon among those great manu-
- factoring centres which had been de-
- nied a voice in Parliament. The bal
-3 lot act also struck a blow at the
1 power of the House of Lords, sorter-
- ritorial Influence can be set at naught
- to some extent by secret voting. Ic
> is found, however, even with the bal-
- lot that the small boroughs spared
, in the destruction of 1832 are still
a practically the private preserves of a
r few powerful families. Thus the
i Duke of Grafton and the Marquees
t of Bristol have great influence at
t Bury St. Edmunds, the Marquess of
Lansdowne owns Caine, the Duke of
Richmond is a power at Chichester,
which is usually represented
by a member of his family,
and the Bathurst family at Cirences
ter, Lord Aliogton at Dorchester,
Lord Erne at Enniskillen, the Kerri*
slons at Eye, the Duke of Leeds at
Helston, Lork Salisbury at Hertford,
the Duke of Norfolk at Horsham,
the Earl of Powls at Ludlow the Earl
of Egmont at Midhurst, the Earl of
Harewood at Northallerton. Lord
Portarlington at Portariington and
the Earl of Pembroke at Wilton ex
ercise almost paramount influence.
It Is maintained by the Conserva
tives, and with some show of reason,
a class of the electorate not found in
the teaming manufacturing towns—
the steady-going country trades
men whose views on political
questions if swayed by local tradi
tions and their own immediate in
terests are not apt to be turned by
the clamors of the crowd. Oa the
other hand, the Radicals contend
that there is neither reason nor logic
in giving one member, say. to Ban
don, with 430 electors. The House of
Lords will hardly make a direct and
serious fight against the completion
of the work of Parliamentary reform.
They are more likely to "shun” the
question by pressing home upon the
obvious weaknesses and blunders,
especially in foreign politics, into
which the Ministry has been urged
by the not very intelligent entremists
who represent the "progressive Radi
calism” of England in the lower
house.— N. Y. World.
Senator Hill has returned to At
lanta. Hie tongue now gives him no
trouble, though he thinks ic best
to talk no more than is necessary at
present.
Two convic's at the old Town
Camps near Augusta got into a diffi
culty a few days ago, and Dan Moses
drew a knife and stabbed and killed
Pimonte, an Italian, who was serv
ing out a sentence of ten years for
attempt to murder. Pimonte,was said
to be a desperate man. The coro
ner’s jury brought Ina verdict bf mur
der against Moses,
—. — • ♦'
From the reports which reach the
Constitution it really seems that At
lanta will be thoroughly overrun
with visitors this fall. The exposi
tion will be a huge success if the At
lantess can only make her guests
comfortable. The expected crowd
will all have to eat and sleep, and to
be well housed and fed will have
much to do with keeping the inter
. est up.
The Montgomery Advertiser Is el
oquent uponthe superiority of re
fined cottton seed oil over lard for
family cooking purposes. It is said
to be delicate In taste rich in flavor,
and only costs about one half the
price of lard. For frying fish it Is
especially suited and Inferior to lard
in nothing. .
The 'detectives and their dear
friends, aiders and abettors, are still
trying to find the body of the late
A. T. Stewait of New York. Judge
Hilton declared that the remainshad
been returned and properly cared
for by being placed in the crypt of
the Cathedral at Garden City several
months ego, but these anxious detec
tives, either knew better, or appear
to believe differently, and are
every once in a while getting up new
sensations on the subject. The last
Is just started by one of tbeee sharps
named Fuller, who runs what be
calls a “Deteclive Bureau,” and Is
to the effect that the remains are at
Cypress Hills cemetery on Long Is
land. We do not think the state
ment that the body bad been recov
ered, and placed in tbo crypt at the
Cathedral was ever very generally
credited, bu’ it Was doubtless as
fully believed as any s'ory of the re
covery will be in the lu'ure. It would
be difficult to convince the New York
public now that the real A. T. Stew
art’s body was recovered, after its
remaining in ths bands of thieves
and sharpers after s> long a time.
