RISING FAWN, GA. :
Thursday, Oct- SMIa, 187©.
Among tlie novel applications of glass
is the invention of Hamilton L. Buck
mil, of England, who lias recently pat
ented in this country a railway sleeper
made of cast glass.
T 1 e colored voters in St. Louis have
resolved that they will not vote the Re
publican ticket any longer unless they
are given a share of the offices in pro
portion to their voting strength, and
committees have keen appointed tom
fool the Republican managers of this
doK'i initiation.
A writer from West Point to the
Columbus Times says: “We scarcely
ever hear anything of the colored folks
in regard to going to Kansas. 1 be
lieve they are generally contented and
inclined to live among us. They seem
to think that brother Caldwell’s forty
acres and mule story of years ago ought
to satisfy them of Yankee pretensions.”
According to the Augusta News, an
important announcement comes from
Washington affecting the mail service
in Georgia. It says at the next letting
of mail routes, it is proposed to increase
weekly to semi-weekly, and semi-week
ly to tri-weekly routes, and to give all
towns wherever possible a daily mail
service. This will add much to the con
venience of the country in general.
The Boston Herald, a Republican pa
per, truthfully says:
“It is the fact to-day the malcontent
Democrats in New york are the ‘bum
mers, ’ while the malcontent Republicans
are the best and cleanest men in the par
ty. Robinson, Democratic candidate for
Governor, represents good government,
economical, honest administration. Cor~
nell represents the spoils system, the
corrupt politicial machine sustained by
the offices.’,
Savannah News:—Dixon's brother
has made thirty-two hundiel dollars
jm annum 01 1 of the Yazoo murder. It
is also noted by the .Baltimore Gazette
that Mrs. Chisholm s grief is always
most poignant in the fall of the year.
Her husband and chiluren were killed
in the spring, but there are no elections
in the spring of consequence, and the
sorrows of the unfortvnate lady do not
reach the newspapers until the eve of
important State elections. As soon ?is
the people begin to talk about voting
bhe seems to be reminded of her loss.
pious fcoundrels who managed
the F?ecdman’s Bank and robbed th e
confiding negroes of their little savings,
aggregated into an immense sum, cut
the criminating proof of their guilt out
of the books of the institution. This
is what Senatoi Bruce discovers in his
work of investigation. Yet when those
rascals were stealing the funds and mu
tilating the hooks they gave much of
their time to fervent prayer that the
Lord would bless the poor benighted ne
gro and curse the “wicked rebels.” it
may be that they thought they had a
fair claim to the money in payment for
their praveis. —Savannah News.
Chattanooga Times.—McKee of the
Selma, Alabama, Argus is whooping
i,p for Jhcn Kelley. Jfist wlifit he
means by it we can’t see, unless the
Tammany bar’l lias been tapped in that
quarter, 01 rather antl- l ifd<"-n oai 1 We
only suggest this as a possible explana
tion. There are a set of persons and
newspapers who invariably explain every
void of adulation or detense or Tilden
jy pointing at Sammy’s bar’l; and we
hink sauce for the goose should be sauce
or the gander. Tilden himself says hi
irulent journalistic assailants, North
ml South, are the ones who have ap
lied to him for money and been refused
ml that Is probably the exact truth,
udging the rest by those we know most
Pont, we should sooner accept that than
u v other as accounting tar He ir course,
i '
Tht* Crops olGhe State.
The report of Commissioner Janes for
the month of August is not a very hope
ful document. The corn crop is estima
ted at twenty per cent less than that of
last year, every section of the state ex
cepting north Georgia reporting a short
crop. In north Georgia the crop is eight
per cent larger than last year’a. In the
other sections it is thought, however
that the old corn in the cribs of thrifty
farmers, together with a liberal area in
fall oats, may obviate the neceisiiy of
buying western corn. It is to be hoped
that this will prove to he the case.
On the first day of this month tlie
prospects of the state’s crop of cotton
were decidedly poor. The rust, cattcr
pillar, and boll-worm were at work in
the three lower division of the state,
while the effects of a late spring arid an
early drouth, combined with cool nights
and a late growth induced by the rains
of August, place the crop of north Geor
gia in great danger from an early frost.
The weed is everywhere large, but there
is not a corresponding amount of matur
e 1 fruit. In the state at large the com
missioner puts the prospect at 78.0 per
cent in relation to an average crop, or
7.2 per cent less than oil the first day
of August, and 3.9 per cent less than
on the first day of September, 1878.
Excepting sorghum, the minor crops
are doing finely. Chufas and sweet po
tatoes, two important hog crops, and
also turnips, are coming on nobly. The
commissioner very wisely urges the
farmers of the state to increase their
acreage of fall-sown oa f s. He consid
ers oats the best food for work animals
and the best crop to supplement failures
in the corn crop. He thinks, in fact,
that oats should be the standard grain
feed, and corn merely auxiliary—which
would reverse the positions of these two
crops in the minds of our farmers if their
fields are an indication of their views on
the subject. The truth is, their is very
little danger, as seasons go, that our
people can produce a surplus of the two
crops—so that an increase in either
or both means m#re comfort, more mon
ey at home and less dependence upon
other states. —Atlanta Constitution.

Oct. 3d.—The senate bills ill relation
to the railroad freight and tariff regula
tion were laid on the table to await the
action of the senate on the bill of the
house relating to the same subject.
A message from the house informed

mittee of conference. On motion of Mr.
McDaniel, the senate adlierrcd.

taken up by sections for amendments.

stipulated. The bill does not make it
legal to charge more than 8 per cent,
even on agreement.
Tribute ef fiiespect.
Whereas, an alarm has been made at
the outer door, a summons has been sent
by the Supreme Architect of the Uni
verse, calling our beloved and worthy
brother, James 0. Taylor, from his la
bor on earth to eternal refreshments, we
trust, in the Celestial Temple not made
with hands, eternal and in the Heavens.
Be it therefore by his brethren re
solved :
Ist. That in bis death a true and
faithful brother lias fallen; one who had
held many important offices and posi
tions in the lodge of which lie was a
member and at the hands of his breth
ren, all of which he filled with honor to
himself and credit to the fraternity, and
at all times zealously and faithfully con
tending and battling for the institutions
of masonry, and contributing liberally
to her support in all her efforts to do
good.
2d. That we hereby tender to his be
reaved daughter and many relatives, the
sympathy of his brethren of the mystic
tie.
3d. That the lodge will attend the
funeral of our deceased brother and con
vey his remains to their last resting
place in the old church-yard, with those
honors of the fraternity peculiarly due
as a last tribute of respect to our brother,
who was ever true and faithful.
4th. That the members of this lodge
wear the usual badge of mourning for
thirty days, and that a blank page upon
the minutes of the lodge be dedicated to
his memory, upon which shall he in
scribed bis name, age, date of his admis
sion and deatli.
sth. That the secretary, under the
seal of the lodge, furnish his daughter
with a copy of these resolutions.
6th. That the Dade County Gazette
be requested topublUli these resolutions.

Rome Couiei:—The Felton papers of
the {Seventh District are begining to
show some anxiety as to who will he
be the Democratic canidate for Congress
next year, and are proposing the names
for Congress next year, and are purpo
sing the names of different gentlemen.
We would most respectfully say to these
papers that it is not their business to
nominate f< r the Democracy.' That
will be attended to at the proper parties.
In the meantime these aforesaid papers
might benefit their canidate by securing
at an early day the assistance of Ferry
and other prominent Republicans in
keeping all Radicals off the track, for
without a solid Radical support their
candidate stands lioeliaucl'.
