Bishop Coxe, of the Protestent Episcopal

genitors by worshiping the devil, whom they
propitiate by human sacrifices. They are also
cannibals. These are the people whom some
of our enlightened uiemliers of Congress pro
posed to make citizens of the United States a
few years ago. Bishop Core is a native of
Philadelphia, born and bred a (Juaker, and con
sequently with no hereditary prejudices
against the colored race.
Augusta and the Last Census.—Ac
cording to the United States census re
port for 1870, the population of Augusta,
at that date, was 15,389, classified as fol
lows : Native, 13,937, foreign, 1,452 —
| whites, 8,957; colored, 0,431. The popu
lation of the different wards is given as
follows:
Total. Native. Foreign. White. Colored,
lxt Ward. 4.242 3,970 973 2.4:35 1.H07
:21 Ward 3.399 2.959 440 2.072 1.326
13d Ward .3,228 2.773 4.50 1,878 1.350
4th Ward 4.520 4.230 290 2.572 1.948
By the census of 1850, the population
of the city was 10,217 —whites 5,250;
colored, 4,961. The census of 1860
placed the population at that time, at
12,493 —whites 8,444; colored 4,049.
That the census of 1870 does not give
a correct statement of the population of
Augusta, is patent to all persons who
are familiar with the city. A moderate
estimate from the size of the place and
the number of houses within its limits,
as well as the rates of voters to the rest
of the people, would place the popula
tion at a figure far above that given by
the Census Bureau. Our opinion, found
ed on our own observation and that of
others who are in positions to know
whereof they speak, is that the popula 1
tion of Augusta will not fall far, if any,
short of 20,000. The census officers were
exceedingly careless in this place in the
discharge of their duty, and did not by
any means make a complete enumera
tion. We know, for example, of one
family composed, of fifteen persons, up
on whom none of the census officers
called, and who were, therefore, as a
matter of course, not included in the
census return. Numbers of similar in
stances could be brought forward, we
are convinced, but that mentioned is
sufficient to show that the census re
turns is incomplete, and therefore not
to be relied on as authoritive.
A Bloody Encounter.— The Sumter
(S. C.) News says : “A fearful tragedy
has just been enacted in Clarendon
county, near the Williamsbnrg line. The
circumstances of the affair, as we heard
them, are as follows: It seems that Maj.
Land and Mr. Pritchard had been in
copartnership in the turpentine busi
ness; that Major Land was the pay
master of the firm, but that he and Mr.
Pritchard had recently dissolved their
business connection. This fact it also
seems was not known to the hands, who
had been in their employ, who presented
themselves as usual to Major Laud to
receive their wages. He told them that
he had withdrawn from the firm, and
that they must go to Mr. Pritchard for
their money. Upon hearing this they
became very violent, drew their knives
and pistols, and tried to cut and shoot
him. When this demonstration was
made Majsr Land drew his revolver,
killed two of his assailants and wounded
two others. By this prompt action he
saved his own life.”
Repulsed. —The Mobile Register, of a
recent date, relates an s musing incident
of the repulse of a volunteer company of
that city by a woman armed with a club.
The volunteer company was out on
drill, and attempted to enter a freight
depot yard in order to have more space
for going through the military evolu
tions. The watchman at the yard had
left his wife on duty, and this heroic fe
male, with club in hand, meeting the
company at the gate, peremptorily for
bade its entering the premises. The
captain of “ye volunteers” expostulated
with the petticoated guardian of railroad
property, but in vain ; enter they could
not, unless they first defeated her in a
pitched battle. The discomfittod officer
was finally obliged to give the command
“ right about,” and leave the amazon in
possession of the field.
Society’s Fashion.— Flowers have suc
ceeded feathers as bonnet trimmings.
The mania for old laces again rages.
Cold coffee produces the desirable tint
of age quickly and effectively.
A band of music is now the correct
thing at a fashionable wedding.
Ruffs are now' worn so large that they
have to be stiffened with wire.
The new thing in fans is the “ Tria
non.” It measures eighteen inches from
point to tip.
It is useless for physicians to argue
against short sleeved dresses. The Con
stitution of the United States says that
“right to bear arms” shall not be inter
fered with.
Anew jury law has been enacted in
Illinois by which a juryman must be a
resident of the county where he serves;
he must be over twenty-one and under
sixty years old; in possession of his
; natural faculties, and not infirm nor
decrepit; of fair character, approved in
tegrity, sound judgment, well informed,
and must understand well the English
language, and he must not have served
as a juror for one year. For any failure
as above he may be challenged. “ Fair
character, approved integrity and sound
judgment” are not always the character
istics of jurymen furnishod by the
“Magic Jury Wheel” of this city.
A Goon Invention.- —Mr. W. D. Fur
rum! lias just perfected in Paris a cinder
and spark arrested, for locomotives.
Mr. Farrand is an American. Several
trials of his invention have taken place
on French railroads. One of his spark
arresters is to bo permanently placed on
a leading railroad of France. Mr. Far
rand is coming to this country for the
purpose of introducing his invention on
ourjroads. If it is all that is claimed for
it, he will bo entitled to the thanks of
many a Summer passanger.
The Tennessee Wheat Chop. —The
Knoxville Chronicle has information of
a pretty fair wheat crop - in a portion of
Blount county. Here and there some
tine fields are seen, but, for the most
part, the crop is a comparative failure.
The Athens Post, ou the authority of
Mr. Jos. Matthews, a very intelligent
and progressive farmer, says that along
the Eastauallee Valley, from Athens
down, there will not be more than half
of an ordinary crop of wheat harvested.
The New York World discusses the
theory of protection with tho Cincinnati
Commercial , and says : When protec
tion can explain and justify the loss of
the purchasing power of the farmer's
production it may with some show of
reason exult over the decrease of expor
tations as a sign of the prosperity of the
country. At the present we hardly
think it can be consoling to the farmer,
who not only has to pay double for all
he consumes of manufactures, but must
find a surplus of export in order to pay
for the tea, coffee, sugar and raw mate
rials consumed by his masters—the pro
tected manufacturers.
California Cotton.— The San Fran
cisco (Cal.) Daily Alfa says that the
first shipment of note of California cot
tou, for the Liverpool market, was made
a few days ago. The ship Ontario, for
Liverpool, now completing her cargo at
Oakland, lias on board 100 bales of Cali
fornia cotton of most excellent quality.
It is pronounced by experts as very su
perior. It will unquestionably prove
profitable to the producer.
Incendiarism. —The National Board
of Underwriters, at their late meetingin
the city of New York, resolved to raise a
fund of *sloo,ooo for the detection, con
viction and punishment of parties en
gaged iu the nefarious business of incen
diarism and arson. The Executive Com
mittee of that Board, at their meeting,
on the 14th nit, carried ont the reso
lution and opened the subscription.
Settled at Last.— The Dobsonian,
a paper published in North Carolina, at
the seat of the operations of the late
lamented Lowery gang, has a long arti
cle going to prove that Captain Jack is
no other than Henry Berry Lowry, the
notorious North Carolina outlaw, whose
death was falsely reported in order that
he might effect his escape.
Lamentable. —A friend of ours says
the demoralization of the age is becom
ing frightful since even steady old
money has been reported “ tight”

The People Endorse* the Chronicle—
The Dupree Will Case—Crop Pros

ton—The Same Old Policy.
Lexington, May 29, 1873.
Editors Chronicle <4- Sentinel :
It may be gratifying to you to know
that your article of a recent date upon
the subject of consolidating the press,
of giving the country fewer papers, and
better papers, meets with general appro
bation. I have heard gentlemen express
their admiration of the idea, and say
they have seen nothing lately that comes
more fully up to their views and feelings
A distinguished son of Athens bids you
God-speed in your efforts to elevate the
character of journalism, and hopes the
time will soon come when those sheets
that live only by dealing with the vil
lanies of abandoned society—that would
glory more over publishing him guilty
of fornication or adultery than of the
fact that he had founded a blind asylum—
shall fail of patronage and support
among civilized and enlightened people.
Though this language was not intended,
nor does it apply, to the high toned jour
nal that has recently gone down in your
midst, yet I suppose there are some to
whom it will, and without_serious’deteri
oration to society*, the immolation of the
moral sensibilities of our people, the
days of all such are numbered. Fewer
papers and better papers —harbingers
of the moral, social and intellectual
wants of the people—is the necessity of
the country.
On my arrival at Lexington I found
the Oglethorpe Court in session, Judge
Andrews presiding. But few people
were present, owing to the busy time in
the planting interests of the country.
The Dupree will case was up for another
trial, and about two days was consumed
in hearing arguments from Messrs.
Mathews, Hill, Peeples and Reid, which
concluded, I presume, with an exhaus
tion of the subject. Whatever may be
the decision of his Honor, it is thought
the case will again go to the Supreme
Court. Too much money is involved for
the struggle to cease short of the last
possible effort. This case, with one or
two others, will be about all disposed of
at the adjourned term.
I was pleased to hear a good report of
the agricultural prospects of the coun
try. Fine stands of corn and cotton,
and the latter, though struggling with
weeds and grass, is growing fast.
The wheat crop is better than com
mon and will soon be ready for harvest
ing. The different products are said to
be better proportioned than formerly
still there is more cotton and less corn
in the ground than ought to be. The
most successful farmers of the county
deeply lament this suicidal policy,
and are satisfied that the only hope
of prosperity is in making the
cotton crop a surplus one. Whatever
figures may say on this subject, obser
vation and experience are teachers that
do not err. It is thought this subject
should be the most prominent in the de
liberations of agricultural conventions,
and, it it must be, for legislative action.

THE WHITE MAN AND THE B^ACK.
Extract From a Recent Lecture of
Prof. Agassiz.
[From the New York Eclectic.l
I have pointed out over a hundred
specific differences between the bonal
and nervous systems of the white man
and the negro. Indeed, their frames
are alike in no particular. There is no
bone in the negro’s body which is rela
tively the same shape, size, articulation,
or chemically of the same composition
as that of the white man. The negro’s
bones contain a far greater proportion
of calcareous salts than those of the
white man. Even the negro’s blood is
chemically a very different fluid from
that which courses in the veins of the
white man. The whole physical organi
zation of the negro differs quite as much
from the white man’s as it does from
that of the chimpuuzee—that is, in his
bones, muscles, nerves and fibres, the
chimpanzee lias not much farther to
progress to become a white man. This
fact science inexorably demonstrates.
Ciimate has no more to do with the dif
ference between the white man and the
ijegro than it has with that between the
negro and the chimpanzee, or between
the horse and the ass, or the eagle and
the owl. Each is a distinct and separate
creation.
The negro «and the white man were
created as specifically different as the
owl and the eagle. They were designed
to| fill different places in the system of
nature. The “negro is no more a negro
by accident or misfortune than the owl
is the kind of bird he is by accident or
misfortune. The negro is no more the
white man’s brother than the owl is the
sister of the eagle or the ass the brother
of the horse. How stupendous, and yet
how simple is the doctrine that the Al
mighty Maker of the universe has crea--
ted different species of men, just as He
lias different species of the lower ani
mals, to fill different places and offices in
the grand machinery of nature.”
Leon Gambetta.
[Justin McCarty.]
“Fear is the curse of this country.
Fear is the source from which our ty
rants and traitors have drawn their prin
cipal strength. On fear they founded
their ascendancy, to bear us down, after
twenty years of empire, to degradation,
to mutilation. From fear they extract
ed that fatal plebiscite which was to
drag us into war. Os fear was born that
impotent reaction of the Bth of Februa
ry, 1871. By fear, with fear, trading ou
fear, reaction always triumphs over us.
Oh, let us once for all rid ourselves of
fear in our political actions !” These
passionate words are taken from a speech
delivered last September at Grenoble, in
the southeast of France, by Mr. Leon
Gambetta. They illustrate effectively
the principal characteristic of the orator
himself as well as that lamentable na-
tional peculiarity which he has so pow
erfully and justly described. “ The
chronic malady of France,” Gambetta
exclaimed, is “political fear. So brave,
generous, ardent, heroic, disinterested
as France is on the field of battle, so is
she timid, hesitating, easily troubled, de
ceived, befooled and terrified in the
domain of politics,” Nothing can be
more true than this. The bloody car
nival of the White Terror came from
the panic caused by the red reign of
Robespierre. Fear of the Red Republi
cans made France fiing herself into the
arms of Napoleon 111. The plebiscite
was carried by playing on the fears of
the bourgoisie and the peasantry, and
persuading both that anew lease to the
Emperor was the only possible means of
warding off battle and social disorder.
The same influence of fear drove repub
lican France two years ago to elect a
National Assembly which is a sworn foe
to Republicanism. “Let us have peace,”
was the cry, “peace at any price. If we
give too much power to Gambetta and
his Republicans, they will try to carry
on the war still. Better anything than
that!” But Gambetta’s complaint against
France illustrates by the law of oppo
sites his personal character. His suc
cess as an orator, a politician, a ruler of
populations, has been for the most part
due to his utter freedom from anything
like fear. Not less than Dauton does
he trust to audacity. Any risk for any
object appears to" be his principle of
action and of speaking. Stake all yon
have, piece after piece—the luck must
turn some time. Make any promise to
day; if you can’t keep it make another
promise twice as big and bold to-mor
j row, and increase again the day after;
; some day or other you may be able to
redeem them all. Prophecy with the
most earnest brow and in the most thril
; ling voice that the sky is going to fall ;
if thereby your votaries obey your com
\ mands in the morning, who cares
though the prediction must be falsified
! by the evening ? This seems to me to be
broadly the principle of Gambetta’s ea
j reer, and one grand explanation of his
i personal success. Intense belief in him
self, complete devotion to his own hopes,
a faith iu his cause which for the mo
ment seems to render failure impossible,
the temper to say anything and do any
thing which the inspiration of the mo
ment suggests, no matter how it may be
confuted by realities of the next suc
ceeding moment —these are the elements
; of that strangely audacious character
which has already stamped its impress
iso deeply upon the political life of
; France.

SUMMER,
ALTHOUGH THE MOTHER OF MYRIADS OF
beautiful flowers, is apt to steal the roses from
the cheeks of those who are exposed to its
fiery breath. At this season if there are any
germs of disease in the system, the heat is
pretty sure to develop them. The bilious, the
dyspeptic, the nervous, the debilitated, suffer
more at this period of the year thau at any
other. They’, therefore, require an invigora
ting and regulating medicine, and this desid
eratum has been placed within the reach of all
in the form of Hostetter’s Stomach Bitters. To

COTTON REVIEW.
The Cotton market during the past commer
cial week has exhibited a good demand, with,
however, little or no fluctuation iu prices. Un
der the influence of unfavorable advices from
abroad, the demand somewhat slackened on
Thursday, but without any material effect upon
prices, which remained about the same at the
close as at the opening of tbe week. Holders
are still free in meeting buyers at current quo
tations. having generally given up prediction
of any advance in price.
The majority of the days of the past week
were extremely favorable for ridding the grow
ing crop of grass, and from the planting dis
tricts information ft received of favorabhi pro
gress of the plant, which is being rapidly clear
ed of grass.
The estimates of the probable receipts at Au
gusta daring the present year, vary from 180.-
000 to 185 bales. The estimate of the total
crop of the United States varies from 3.750.000
to 3,900.000 bales.
In the future market daring the week there
has been but little activity displayed, The
speculative demand is hght. and transactions
few. amounting in all to 300 bales, ou the basis
of 171 c. for May and June delivery.
Below we give a resume of the week’s busi
ness:

FINANCIAL.
During the week New York advices have re
ported the money market a great deal easier,
indeed the stringency seems to have almost en
tirely relaxed, aud good mercantile paper lias
beeu quoted in demand at seven and eight per
cent. But owing to local causes, and the ac
tive and continued demand for accommodation,
there has been no decline of any consequence
in the rates here, and money can not be ob
tained for less than twelve per cent, on strong
paper. The bank rate is thirteen per cent, for
loans upon good collaterals—thirty and sixty
day bills—and nineteen per cent, is taken from
long date city acceptances. The demand for
securities is not as good as it was. and business
generally has been dull during the week. The
high price of moDey seems to have caused this
depression in the stock and bond trade, for
while parties with surplus means can obtain
nineteen per cent, upon safe loans, they are
not disposed to invest in stocks which pay a
lower rate of interest. There is, however,
i some inquiry for Georgia Railroad, and sales of
| Gramteville Factory stock have been made at
j 152—an advance of 82 per share.

PRODUCE REVIEW.
Business has been fairly active during the
week, considering the season. Corn is in libe
ral stock, and fair demand; prices have ruled
fairly steady, with occasional lots pressed un
derquotations. Wheat is dull and nominal.
Oats are scarce and quief? Flour shows but
little change for the past three weeks; some
holders of shipments under positive selling in
structions have forced off lots considerably be
low quotations. Reports from crops West are
not favorable as a whole on Wheat, and should
half the story prove truo. prospects are very
strong for much lighter crops of Corn and Oats
than last season. The Bacon market is rather
lightly stocked at present, especially for favor
ite cuts and cures, and dealers are’ arranging
for replenishing stocks in a small way. The
markets West have been bo largely manipulated
lately that dealers lackconfidence’in quotations,
and stability of the market, or they would stock
up more heavily. They are becoming suspi
cious of Board of Trade telegrams quoting
‘ market inactive, stuff held higher.” 1 hey
don t believe an advance a healthy consequence
to an inactive market, and have very little faith
in reports from the " Western Bacon Clique.”
Prices here are stronger and. on some descrip
tions, rather higher, owing to light supply.
Prime Tennessee Butter is arriving more free
ly. and selling readily. Warm weather is affect
ing receipts of Eggs, and the trade is growing
light.

NO ONE QUESTIONS THE FACT THAT MORE
cases of whites, suppressed and irregular menses
and uterine obstructions, of every kind, are
being daily cured by Dr. J. Bradfleld’s Female Regu
lator, than by all other remedies combined. Its suc
cess in Georgia and other States is beyond precedent
in tbs annals of physic. Thousands of certificates
from women everywhere pour in upon the proprie
tor. The attention of piominent medical men is
aroused in behalf of this wonderful compound, and
the most successful practitioners use it. Its action is
pleasant, quick and sure. If women suffer hereafter
it will be their own fault. Female Regulator is pre

Brapfuxd & Cos., Atlanta. Ga.—Dear Sirs; I take
pleasure in stating that I have used for the last
twenty years the medicine you aro uow putting up,
known as Dr. J. Bradfield’s FEMALE REGULATOR,
aud consider it the best combination ever gotten to
gether for the diseases for which it is recommended.
I have been familiar with the prescription, both as
a practitioner of medicine and in domestic practice,
and can honestly say that I consider it a boon to
suffering females, and can but hope that every lady
in our whole laud, who may be suffering in any way
peculiar to their sex, may be able to procure a bottle,
that their sufferings may not only be relieved, but
that they may be restored to health and strength.
With my kindest regards, I am, respectfully,

[( ; VECETABLE )]
Jim startling drawback on nearly all medicinal
agents has over been that In their process of purga
tion and purification they have also debilitated the
system. To obviate this difllenltv physicians have
long sought for an agent that would ‘
Purge, Purify and Strengthen
AT ONE AND THE SAME TIME. Their research
has at, last boon rewarded by a discovery which fully
realizes tho’ fondest desires of the medical faculty,
and which is justly regarded as the most important
triumph that Pharmacy bus over achieved. This im
portant desideratum is
I)r. Tint’s Vegetable Liver A’ill,
Which purify the blood and remove all corrupt hu
mors and unhealthy accumulations from the body,
and yet produces no weakness or lasslludo whatever,
hut on the contrary tones the stomach and in
vigorates the body during the progress of their opera
tion. They unite the heretofore irreconcilable
qualities of a STRENGTHENING PURGATIVE
and a PURIFYING TONIC.
Hr. Tnit’s Pills are the most active and search
ing medicine in existence. They at once attack tho
very root of diseases, and their action is ho prompt
that in an hour or two after they are (alien the pa
tient is aware nf their aid effects. They may bo
taken at any time without restraint of diet or occu
pation ; they prodnoopie I her nausea, griping or de
bility, aud as a family modi ine they have un rival.

II BLOOD PURIFIER I
I* the moat powerful cleanser, strengthener
and remover of Glandular .Obstructions known to
Materia Medlra.
It In specially adapted to constitutions “worn
(Town” and debilitated by the warm weather of
Spring and Summer, when the blood is not in active
circulation, consequently gathering impurities from
sluggishness and imperfect action of the secretive
organs, and is manifested by Tumors, Eruptioi*a,
Blotches, Boils, Pustule.*, Scrofula, Ac., k<\
When weary and languid from overwork, amt
dullness, drowsiness and Inertia take the place of
energy and vigor, the system needs a Tonic to build
it up and help tho Vital Forces to regain their recu
perative power.
In the heat of Hummer frequently the Liver and
Spleen do not properly perforin their functions ; tho
Uterine and Urinary Organa'are Inactive, producing
weakness of the stomach and intestines and a pre
disposition to bilions derangement.
