GeorgiS'Ttems.
The crop prospects in Mitchell, Miller, and
Decatur conntles" are represented as very flat
tering. While it is difflcnlt to form a correct
idea at this early day, yet experienced farmers
pronounce the crops at this season of the year
better than they have ever known then), espe
cially corn. The cotton lands are represented
as being in good condition and ready for the
seed.
The ship Eldorado, the first that ever came
from California to Savannah, is of 1,147 tons
burthen, arrived seven weeks ago with 1,537
tons ol Baker Island guano, not one pound of
which was damaged. She was placed in the
hands of Mr. P. L. Perry for discharging, and
he accomplished the task in the short period of
thirty-five days. The ship is now ballasted and
ready for sea.
A negro woman was killed in Milledgeville
on‘Monday. It seems a crowd of yoong men
were standing together conversing, when the
woman passed. Some remark was made to
her, which led to a difficulty and the stabbing
and killing of the woman. The woman identi
fied her slayer on her death-bed. He was com
mitted to jail.
The Savannah Advertiser, of yesterday, says
that a regular monthly meeting of the Georgia
Historical Society was held at their rooms
Monday evening. The Library Committee
recommended the purchase of the following
works : “ Pilgrim’s Travels in Arabia,” “ An
nals of Bcieutiflc Discoveries,” “Open Polar
Sea" by Dr. Hays, “ Froude’s History of Eng-,
land," which were ordered.
At a meeting of the Agricultural Society at
Quitman, on Saturday last, a resolution re
questing each member of the society to keep
an account, as far as practicable, of what
manures he may use, whether commercial or
domestic, how it is applied, and in what quanti
ties—the rnanuer of cultivation and the resnlts
of the crop, together with an account of the
rains duriug the season, in order that he may
Tbport the same for the information and benefit
of the society was adopted.
An Outrageous Insult to our Colored
Soldiers. —We are informed by the daily
press that “ the Indians of the plains will not
take scalps from the heads of negro soldiers
killed in battle.”
Is not this a flagrant violation of the spirit of
the civil rights bill, of the new amendments to
the Constitution, and of the reconstruction
policy of Congress ?
This is the crowning insult to our colored
citizens.
Shall the red skins be allowed thus to rcnke
distinctions on account ol race or color ?
When the colored troops fight bravely, may
those untaxed Indians scorn their scalps as
being no trophy worth Ihe taking off?
This contemptuous treatment of the black
man by the red man is not to be borne.
Senator Sumner most attend to^bis.
He must prepare resolutions.
He must fulminate speeches against the no
ble red man of the forest, who, when on the
war path, dares to show a savage disrespect to
wool!
He has abolished the word “ white ” in the
District of Columbia, let him abolish the word
“ black ” on the plains.
Let him cause it to be enacted that when the
untaxed red skiu says—
“ Ugh, big Indian no scalp merger!” some
body shall shoot him on the spot.
It is not because of the difficulty of taking
off the colored man’s scalp.
No such thing.
Indiaus scalp very short haired white sol
diers.
It is their contempt for the negro as an infe
rior race.
They must be taught better.
Here is missionary work to do.
And anew stipulation should be made in all
Indian treaties, that no distinction ol race or
color shall be made with the scalping knife.
The insult is too cutting.—Boston Courier.
Struck bt a Whale.— The steamship Amer
ica reports that on the inward vpyage, off Cape
Henry, on the sth of March lost, while going
twelve knots, two large whales were discover
ed, one of which rose under the bow, shaking
the steamship and breaking seven feet off the
stem, shivering it so badly that it had to be cut
off and repaired. The whale came to the sur
face on the port bow and sunk out of sight.
The other whale was half a mile off toward the
shore. —Savannah Republican , 6 th.

Confederate soldiers who were prisoners of
war at Camp Douglas, Chicago, 111., or ..to

The Bennettsville Journal says : “On Fri
day last we were visited with one of the heaviest
showers of rain that has fallen since the Winter
of 1867, which has washed up considerable
quantities of grain that had been planted. No
6erious damage has been done, however, and
the loss has been very light. Yesterday the
river was considerably swollen, and the waters
were running over tbe banks. . This has pat a

ABBEVILLE.
The Abbevtlle Banner, of Wednesday last,
31st ult., says: “It becomes onr painful duty
to chronicle the bereavement experienced by
the Hon. A. Burt. After repeated attacks of
illness, extending over a period of several

Mrs. Burt yielded to the fell destroyer on the
morning ot the 27th instant.”

WALHALLA.
The Walballa Conner, of the 2d inst., says :
On the night of the 251 h ult., a heavy fall of
rain occurred in this section. The clouds
seemed to empty themselves on the earth.
Our water courses were higher than they have
been known to be for several years past. All
the low grounds on the branches, creeks and
rivers were overflowed, and iu many instances
badly washed. Fences were swept away, and
a great deal of injury and delay to our farmers
effected.
John Cameron, an Irishman, was arrested
near Walballa, on Ibe 29th ult., under a charge
of burglary. The prisoner has been sent to the
Andersonville jail for safekeeping.
Chinese Immigration—A correspondent
of a New York journal predicts that there will
soon be an immense rush of emigration from
China to this country. The interest which the
subject has awakened among the Chinese is
shown by an article in the Shanghae Daily
News, which sets forth elaborately, and in a
most attractive manner, the advantages of a
residence in California. Among other recom
mendations it is mentioned “ that those who
believe in 1 Buddha’ will be permitted to erect
temples without let or hindrance.” The pros
pect of having suffrage under the 15th amend
ment is not annonneed, the news of the passage
of the resolution submitting that question to
the States not having then reached China, nor,
if it had, is it likely that it would have been
much ol an inducement to a practical, working
people like the Chinese, who, like most people
who find it hard to obtain the bare means of
subsistence, do not over-estimate the im
portance of political privileges ? At the same
time, when this power is placed in their hands,
they will be very likely to employ it in the first
place, for purposes of self-protection, and,
having tested its efficacy in that respect, the
politicians will soon put them in the way of
using it for other purposes. It the emigration
lrom the East to the United States shall prove
as great as is anticipated, or even very con
siderable, it will be curious, at least, to note its
effect in case the 15th amendment is adopted.—
Baltimore Sun.
A Female Hamlet.— An English woman
named Marriott has recently appeared as Ham
let. The World criticizes her severely, and
among other good things, says:
Until artistes can change their organizations
as easily as they change their names, there will
be no attraction in a woman’s manliness; and
until some sturdy tragedian shall make a hit in
Oph'lia or Juliet , we do not believe that so
much superiority lies in woman as will com
mand our respect in the momentary abnegation
of sex at the dictation of personal vanity. This,
however, is just what Miss Marriott attempts
to do. She is a Hamlet with swelling bust and
rounded lips, In whose voice, even-where em
ployed to utter the man’s emotions, there is a
constant echo, of maternity; whose arms have
the woman’s grace but not the man’s executive
swing, and which, with all the advantage of pro
fessional training, are constantly reminding us
that they were better made for caressing than
for wrestling. In a word, to the credit of her
nature if not of her profession, she is doing a
virile part without virility. And this, which in
art is a monstrosity -and in nature an outrage,
we are asked to admire on the grounds of its
novelty and nicety, which we decline to do.

“ The attention of the public is called to an adver
tisement beaded Chartreuse Elixir or Jesuits’ Secret.
It is said to be the most effective cure for the diseases
enumerated ever discovered. It is certainly creating
a sensation in the medical world, and Its discovery
win be hailed with delight by thousands who have
been hopelessly afflieted.
“It la more effective than the Hot Springs of Arkan
sas, many persona having returned from, that fonntain
of health unrelieved have been cured permanently by
its use. It is the discovery of one of the most emi
nent and successful physicians on the Continent,
whose faith in its curative qualities is sufficiently at
tested by thousands. We have been assured by gen
tlemen wi-h whom wo are well acquainted, that they
haye seen cures effected in the line of diseases It pro
fesses to treat that had baffled the skill of physicians
of the greatest research and highest standing. We,
therefore, do not hesitate to endorse to the confidence
of the afflicted.” •
Notice from the Louisville Journal.
“ We invite attention to Mr. Wm. G. Gray’s adver
tisement ot Lhis newly discovered ani most wonderful
remedy. It is called the ‘Jesuits’ Secret,’ might be
called the Secret of Perpetual Youth. Its invlgorat
ing, beautifying, and life, prolonging qualities are cer
tainly unsurpassed; nay, they are unequaled In this
respect, it throws the famous Hot Springs in Arkan
sas, almost magical as they are, far into the shade. It
throws into the shade everything of the kind, indeed,
except, the Fonntain of Youth which Posots ds Lsott
sought, and from which the Elixir seems to have been
gathered. But we will not undertake to describe tbe
properties of this panacea. It can he tried more easily
than described or imagined.’’.
