WEDNESDAY JULY 21, 1875.
MINOR TOPICS.
Although at a rather late day it Hoems that
Georgia wilt workout her original deatiny after
all. One of the prime object* in .nettling the
colony waa to produce Hilk, and now the Cdnm
bn Enquirer informs us that it has inspected
a small lot from Merriwether county, which is
find class, and says that the business is so
largely on the increase as to justify the hope
of a good showing at the Centennial.
If reports are to believed, the Radicals ere
determined to make unprecedented efforts to
regain control of Connecticut. There has been
a conference between Postmarter-General
Jewell aud other teaming Republicans of that
Htate; the Btate committee is to be overhaul
ed and anew Secretary appointed with a large
salary, and the Hartford Timet thinks that the
whole revival is in the interest of Jewell for
the Presidency.
JHis name w*>i Bhines. The Chicago sport*,
thinki -g him a promising young Knight of the
Cue. sent him to New Orleans to gather in the
rhino, betting largely on him in his recent con
test with Henry Miller, of the Crescent City
By the way. his Christian name is also Henry.
The New Orleans Henry, however, captured
him easily. The match was $1,030, with side
bets to a large amount, and the championship
of the Northwest and Southwest. When the
play closed the Chicago Henry was only 30-1
while the other Henry ha/1 rounded off hw 560.
The American Grocer, which generally
speaks very guardedly, takes a cheerful view
of the crop prospect. It says : “It is now
generally conceded that the European crop of
cereals will not be as abundant as it promised
a month ago. The prospects of the wheat
crop of this country are excellent. What with
the surplua left over from last y ar the crop
will be an average one. aui as the Booth will
probably make enough for its own use, there
will be the greater quanity for export. The
cotton crop promises unusually well, and the
Booth bids fair to take a long steu forward this
year/’
There is anew and quite brilliant develop
ment in the Poland press law. Chandler hav
ing failed to get the Courts where Buell, of the
iJutroit Fret Free*, was arrested to under
stand why a man should be tried in Washing
ton for a publication made in Detroit, has got
ten anew indictment in which it is alleged
that the libelous publication was completed in
Washington when the correspondent filed his
manuscript in the telegraph office, and on this
it is asked that the defendant be sent on for
trial. The Philadelphia Time* considers this a
happy thought and sarcastically says that the
filing of a dispatch in a telegraph office con
stitutes publication is an idea so novel and in
genious that its discoverers deserve success.
Take away the j>etty Federal “organizers,”
says Charles Nordhoff in his last letter to the
New York Jlerakl. and the negro, left face to
face with the white man. no longer marched
no in column to th j central poll of the county,
but voting in bis proper precinct ; argued
with ; hearing both sides for the first time ;
knowing by experience, as he presently will,
that the Democrat is not a monster, and that
a Democratic victory does not mean his re-en
slavement, will lose much of his interest in
elections. “They won’t vote unless Diey have
white organizers.” was the universal testimony
of the Hepuhl can managers wherever Mr.
Nordhoff went in the South.
There are among the North American In
dians some most curious accounts of the Cre
ation. none more ho than that of the Utes of
Colorado. Here, lti brief, is what they say: In
the beginning the earth was covered with
mists. You could not see before you. The
Great Spirit took his bow and arrows and shot
—shot so well that ho scattered the mist. The
earth became visible to Him. but there were
no men upon it. Then he took Dy, fashioned
a man and set him to hake. Man cam) out
white ; the fire had not been strong enough,
The Great Spirit began his work again, and
this tuno the man came out quite black ; he
had remained too long in the oven. It was
necessary to try a third time. The experiment
at length Hiicceeded, and man came out done
to a turn ; he was a red-skin, the most perfect
of human types.
A Chicago inventor comes forward with a
rival to the Keely motor, and has progressed so
far as to bo willing to state that by the combi
nation of air ami water he has produced a
pressure of 10,000 pounds to the square inch.
Further the Chicago inventor rofusos to par
ticularize. He is running a race with Keely to
reach the Patent Office first with a model,
although, ignorant of the proeiso principles of
the other machine, he does not know tiiat the
two inventions will conflict. Becrocy and re
ticence are maintained in Chicago s well as in
Philadelphia, and the public are vastly mow in
terested in what remains to be told than in
what they have already hoard. Bet the rush
for the now motors proceed by all moans. Pos
sibly some of tlie mechanics who havo become
iu4t*ctcd by the Keoly excitement, though they
fail in their efforts for ahsoluto origination,
may in the end work out valuable improve
ments upon the manipulation of force as de
veloped up to this time.
How a Baltimore boy got some twine for his :
kite from a druggist’s reel: “Tlio boy entered
tho store, accompanied by another boy and a
dog. Boy No. 2, having placed a bottle upon
tlio counter, demurely askod for five cents*
worth of ‘sirup squills and pollygolic,* and.
while the doctor was filling tho order, boy No.
1 was tying tho end of the cord to tho dog’s
tail. When Hie man of medicine returned to
the counter the reol was flying like fury. The
doctor quietly reached for a pallot knife, and.
baviug lirtng himself over the counter, made &
desperate whack at the cranium of the young
ster, who. ho supposed, was sitting on tho
floor helping hinisolf. But lo! the boys and
the dog Bouncer were not there. Tho doctor,
having tried in vain to stop his reel, was
obliged to givo it up on account of the heat it
communicated to the palm of his hand. When
lie reached tho door he behold the boys two
blocks off, and Bouncer in the middle of tho
street going at the rate of forty knots an hour,
the string pointing directly tow;rd his tail.
Tho reel continued to spin for some time after
ward. until it stopped of its own accord,”
A prisoner in Paris lately receifed a letter
containing merely a lock of hair wrapped in
tho leaf of & small book.. The jailer did not
consider the souvenir important enough to be
delivered, but a few days after came a similar
enclosure, and yet another. This aroused
suspicion, and tho Governor took the matter
in hand. Ho examined tho leaf of the book*
It was only that of a common novel, twenty
six linos on a page. Then be studied tho hair
an 1 noticed the small quantity of the gift.
Counting the liair he found them of unequal
length, and twenty-six in number, the same
as tho linos of the page. Struck with the coin
cidence. he laid the haira along the line of the
page which they respectively reached, begin
ning at the top with the smallest hair. After
some {rouble he found that the oud of each
hair pointed to a different letter, aud that these
letters combined formed a slang sentence,
v hich informed the prisoner that his friends
wore on the watch, and that the next time ho
left the prison to be examined an attempt
would be made to rescue him. The Governor
laid his plans accordingly, the attempt at res
cue was made, but the rescuers fell into their
own trap.
There is a very romantic incident likely to be
connected with the present visit of the Sultan
of Zanzibar to London. A sister of his. when
a young girl, iu spite of the restraints winch
are thrown around women in tho East, be
came acquainted with a young German clerk
in the house of a Zanzibar merchant, aud the
two fell in love with eaf h other. In order to
be united to ban she escaped to Aden, and
there she was married and also baptized. 7be
brother of tho present Sultan wss then on the
throne, and he and her other relatives were, of
course, incensed at her elopement, at her
change of religion, and her marriage to a
Christian, aud wholly disowned her. She ac
companied her husband to Europe, and they re
sided at Hambarg till he met with an accident
about 1870. which caused his death. His
widow, who had become a highly educated and
accomplished woman removed to Dresden for
the education of her children. Her noble
character, her beauty, aud her romantic histo
ry have attracted the attention of many peo
ple of influence iu Germany, including some
members of the Imperial family, and when the
Sultan's visit to England was arranged it was
felt that an opportunity was presented for ef
fecting reconciliation between her and her
brother, from whom she has been so long es
tranged. With a view to this she has gone to
London, aud is at present staying in the house
of a well known Member of Parliament.
Like her old sisters. Colorado has adopted
a distinctive title and asks to be considered
“the Centennial State." While thirteen States
originally male the Union. Colorado desires to
lead the ranks of additions that the second
century will contribute. Though all who re
gard the question impartially feel that this
Territory was prematurely admitted to State
honors aud privileges, now that it is a fact ac
complished they will desire to make the best of
it and rejoice to know that she is well supplied
with those expansive forces which will soon
enlarge to those proportions entitling her to
the place she now enjoys. As is well known,
mining, stock raising, farming and manufac
tures are the pursuits principally followed
there, aud last year's record was a very fair
one. The products of the mines, including
gold, silver, coal, copper, lead and salt amount
ed to over $7,000,000. whieh exceeded the total
product of four other mining Territories, and
was more than $1,000,000 in excess of Utah's
product. The total assessed value of sheep
and cattle last year was $5,275,000. and the an
nual product is $2,000,000. The collection of
internal revenue was $65,000, being forty per
cent, of the aggregate for nine Territories.—
There are now fifty-six organized towns in the
new State, besides over a hundred small set
tlements and about two hundred and twenty
post offices, whieh are easily reached by rail
and stage lines. The material for a great and
prosperous State is there, aud the sooner it is
developed tU© better.

This Hillyer business is becoming per
plexing. The Constitutionalist (a paper
printed in Augusta) a short time since

Gainesville Eagle says the name of
“ George Jnnins Hillyer has been sug
gested as a suitable candidate for Gov
ernor.” We are waiting now to be en
lightened concerning the said “ George
Junius,’’ Besides these two Judge
Hillyer, of Atlanta, has been put in
nomination. Certainly it looks as if we
were bound to have a Hillyer for our
next Governor.

want another trial, or he is fearful he
caDuot give another bond.
The Warrenton Clipper tells of two
young ladies in Warrenton who, with
their own hands, plant, cultivate and
gather a cotton crop each year of six or
seven bales, which together with their
grain crop and stock, feed and clothe
them handsomely, and leaves them a
cash surplus of two or three hundred
dollars. In addition to this, they do all
their owu house work, raise chickens,
keep cows, make their own butter, and
have a surplus to sell, besides finding
time between them to teach a school.
Added to all this, they are sensible,
modest and pretty, as well as intelligent.
What more could be asked? We came
near forgetting to state that one of
them has lately married, bat there is
still one left, and the man who wins her
for a wife may consider his fortune
made.
The LaGrange Reporter gives the fol
lowing particulars of a very serious dif
ficulty which occurred iu Troup county
recently between Malachi Gladney and
his tenant, named Knight. Knight was
using a mule belonging to Gladney, and
Gladney thought Knight ought to be
done with him. Knight, however, was
determined to use the mule longer, and
became exasperated because Gladney
had taken the mule to go to Hogausville
and hack, the day before. Going into
the field where Giaduey was at work,
Knight enrsed him, and drew a knife on
him. He warned Knight not to come
at him with the knife, but the latter
continuing to approach, was knocked
down three or four times by Gladuey’s
fist. Gladney stooped to pick up a rock
with which to defend himself, and be
fore he could rise, his arms were caught
behind by Knight’s mother-in-law, who
had seen the fight from the house and
ran into the field. With his arms thus
pinioned, Glatidey was at the mercy of
his antagonist, who stabbed him severe
ly in several places. One gash was in
the left arm; another extended from a
point below the right eye to the lower
jaw bone; and a third began at the back
bone and went round to the left side,
being about five inches .long and mak
ing a horrible wound. After inflicting
these dreadful injuries, Knight fled and
Gladney pursued him fifty or sixty
yards. Kuigbt escaped, however, and
Gladney went home. At the last ac
counts he was considered beyond all
hope of recovery, bleeding internally
and at times raving like a mad man and
attempting to take his own life.
The Sumter Republican , of the 14th,
says: About 4 o’clock Mondayafternoon
a heavy rain and thunder storm passed
over our city. It was of short duration
however. A current of the electric fluid
struck a wild loens tree near the resi
dence of Mr. John Brake, one of our
faithful policemen, aud shattered it to
pieces. His family, consisting of his
wife and three children, and a little
daughter of Mrs. Horton, were iu the
house at the time. The doors and win
dows of the house were all closed, and
the family in the east room, three of the
children were sitting on the floor about
midway, and Mrs. B. and the elder
child were standing about nine or ten
feet from the others. The electric fluid
entered the building and prostrated the
entire group, doing its work too swiftly
to give them the slightest warning of its
coming. On returning to consciousness
Mrs. Brake went to look after the chil
dren and found them lying on the floor
iu an unconscious state, though not suf
fering from any pain. Tho mark of the
lightniug is apparent on three of the
children. On the spine and bowels of
the youngest is the impression of the
tree as plainly as if it had been brand
ed. On the legs of another child was
a like impression of the tree, and on one
side of Mrs. Horton’s child was imprint
ed the tree, and on the other the print
of a vine that was in front of the window.
Mrs. Brake was badly stunned, and one
of her children so terribly shocked as
to cause a severe fever, from which she
is still suffering. A dog that was under
the house at the time was instantly
killed. Mr. Brake was on police duty
at the time when this sad intelligence
was communicated to him. The ages of
the children are respectively, one nine
months old, another six years, another
nine, and the oldest twelve years.
The LaGrange Reporter obtained
from one of the coroner’s jury the follow
ing facts in regard to the killing of
Richard A. Tomme by James Foster,
which occurred at the house of the lat
ter, a few feet from the Alabama line, on
Thursday, the Bth. It appeal’s that
Tomme’s son, Avery, had abused Fos
ter’s sisters the day before. Old man
Foster went to Richard Tomme and re
ported the fact, when the latter cursed
him. Foster then remarked there was a
law to protect his family, and left.
James Foster whipped Avery Tomme on
the next morning; and the latter went
to his father and reported it; where
upon his father got a doubled-barrel
shot-gnn and went to Foster’s house,
where he met John Simington in his
wagon waiting to be joined by young
Foster to go West Point. Simington
told him not to have a difficuly, when
Tomme, with an oath, said he had come
to settle the matter and intended to do
it. Young Foster came out from the
house with a shot-gun, aud as he got
into the wagon was knocked from it by
Tomme with his gnu. Foster then
threw a rock at Tomme, and the latter
snapped his gun at him. Foster drew a
pistol aud just then his father came up
aud made him put up the weapon.
Tomme then struck young Foster over
the shoulder with his gun, dealing him
a severe blow and breaking the stock of
the gun. Foster picked up his gun and
shot Tomme—firing both barrels, and it
is supposed putting twenty-one buck
shot iuto his breast. Tomme died in
stantly, never speaking afterwards. Fos
ter went to Alabama, but has since beeu
beard from near Franklin, Heard county.
He was badly injured by the blow from
Tomme’s gun. His shoulder-blade was
broken aud he was not expected to live..
All this comes of the miseosduet of a
bad boy, who doubtless richly deserved
the thrashing he got.

WOMAN’S BEST FRIEND.—TO RELIEVE THE
achiug heart of woman aud bring joy where sorrow
reigned supremo is a mission before which the
smiles of kings dwindle into utter insignificance.
To do this is the peculiar province of Dr. J. Brad
field’s Female Regulator; which, from the number
less cures it -ias accomplished, is appropriately styled
Woman’s Best Friend. The distressing complaint
known as the “wh tes,” and the various irregular
ities of the womb, to which woman is subject, dis
appear like magic before a single bottle of this won
derful compound. It is prepared by L. H. Brad
field, Druggist, Atlanta, Ga., and sold at $1 50 per
bo‘tie by respectable Drug men everywhere. Physi
cians prescribe it. Its action is prompt, sure an 1
decisive.
Now in Perfect Health.
Near Marietta, Ga., March 21, 1870.
Messrs. Wm. Root & Sosa:
Gentlemen—Some months ago I bought a bottle
of Bradfield’s Femalo Regulator from you, and have
used it iu my family with the utmost satisfaction,
and have recommended it to three other families and
they havo found it just what it is recommended.
The females who have used your Regulator are now
in perfect health, aud are able to attend to their
household duties, and we cordially recommend it to
the public. Yours, respectfully,
jy!s—thtu&wlm Rev. H. B. JOHNSON.

THE BEST PREVENTIVE OF SEA SICKNESS.
ONE or two days before going to sea take
it to assist the liver to cause a moderate
action. The first aud second day at sea keep
the bowels in a free condition by its use. This
often checks vomiting by causing the contents
of the stomach to pass through the bowels.
You then find it not only the best means to
prevent sea sickness, but you produce a
healthy action of the liver, remove impurities
from the blood, and prepare the system to re
ceive greater advantages from the sea vovage.

Weekly Review of Augusta Market.
Acocsta, Ga., Friday Aftebmoon,
July 16,1875.
General Remarks.
Everyfliing is so dull just bow that there is
really not enough trade to make quotations
anything more than nominal. As far as pro
visions and general groceries are concerned we
have not the slightest change to note in prices.
Meat is firm at 14 cents for clear ribbed bacon
rides, but advices from the West indicate a
downward tendency. The stock in Augusta,
however, is so light that this tendency will
hardly effect our market. All that is now on
hand was laid down at previous prices, and
holders are not disposed to make concessions,
especially as they can readily- dispose of the
supply to the regular consumers at quotations.
Western Flour is a shade firmer but not quo
tably higher. The stock at present is suffi
cient to supply the demand. Wheat is very
flat. The market is now lower than it has been
for years past. This is owing to the fact that a
large quantity of the grain has been harvested
in all sections of the country. The decline in
priers during the past two months has
amounted to fully 45 cents per bushel. Corn
is firm and scarce at quotations. Oats doll
In miscellaneous groceries we have no change
to note. Reboiled Molasses is somewhat firm
er, but prices are the same as yet.
Financial*
Money is by no means so scarce as it might
be. Parties who have good collateral security
will not sue in vain for loans, provided the
time is not too long. The banks have not much
partialityfor renewals long continued.taence pa
per at short dates, which will undoubtedly be
met at maturity, stands an altogether better
chance of obtaining money than that over
which there hangs a prospect ortenewal. The
payment of July dividends by the factories,
banks aud the Georgia Railroad has added
about $250,000 to the general circulation, and
this of itself is sufficient to relieve any tight
ness that may have prevailod in the money
market. The dividend of the Georgia Railroad
alone amounts to #168,000, the greater portion
of which will probably be spent m thte city. It
is clear, then, that the Georgia Railroad may
be looked upon in the light of a public bene
factor. The road has already contributed in
an incalculable degree to the prosperity of the
city. Jior are the dividends by the other in
stitutions named to be overlooked- Year after
year large sums are paid out in this way, all
adding prosperity to the city. This shows the
importance of investing in hotntyriistitutions
or m these not remote. _

New York Dry Goods Market.
[From the New York Daily Bulletin, July 13.]
During the week under review there was not
much, if any, improvement in the general con
dition of the trade. There was a well sustain
ed movement in woolen goods for men’s wear,
but cotton goods dragged despite liberal sales
of tine and four yard Drown sheetings, which
were stimulated by means of extra discounts.
There was a considerable influx of Western
buyers from distant points, but most of them
only halted long enough in the city to fill a few
orders, after which they left for the watering
places, Ac., where they will remain for a short
time before commencing their operations for
the Fall. The outlook for the Autumn trade is
not regarded as discouraging, although the
most sanguine do not look for a large business.
The jobbing trade remained quiet in all de
partments, although numerous small orders
were daily received from retailers whose stocks
stand in need of replenishment. The actual
sales of the week were light and unimportant,
but jobbers are, generally speaking, in good
spirits, and few of them are disappointed with
the results of the Spring trade, which has
been one of slender profits and but few losses.
Cotton Goods—The general market lacked ac
tivity but some large lines of fine and four
yard brown sheetings changed hands on pri
vate terms, and extra discounts enabled the
agents to place fair quantities of bleached cot
tons with the trade. Prices of the best corpo
ration makes of cotton goods were in most
cases steadily maintained, but outside brands
had a weakening tendency and more disposi
tion to entertain offers was manifested than
for some time past. The supply of cotton
goods in this market continues large, and it is
feared that there will be no improvement in
prices—which are at present unprofitable to
manufacturers—until much of the present sur
plus has passed into consumption, whioh will
not occur until production has been materially
lessened by the mill owners. The Atlantic
Cotton Mills have stopped running for sixty
days and the Salmon Falls Mill No. 2, produc
ing cotton flannels, four yard Bheetings. shoe
drillings and jeans, lias ceased production in
addition to the other mills previously reported,
but there is still great room for further cur
tailment, without which it is needless to look
for a healthy or profitable market for cotton
goods. The Hampden Mills, Holyoke. Mass.,
have suspended payment, but particulars as to
tlieir liabilities, Ac., have not transpired.—
Woolen Goodß—Thera was a fair demand for
men’s wear woolens, and current sales com
bined with liberal deliveries on account of for
mer orders enabled manufacturers’ agents to
distribute an important aggregate amount of
goods to cloth jobbers and the clothing trade.
The clothing trade was well represented in the
market, and extended their operations to fanoy
cassimeres and suitings, worsted coatings,
chincillas, far beavers, Kentucky jeans. Ao.
Face beavers showed a trifling improvement,
and there was more demand for repellants,
although buyers’ views as to price were so
widely apart from those of holders that few
transactions occurred. Flannels and blankets
were less active than at the corresponding po
riod of last year, but some fair sales of tho
former were made to distant jobbers.

weekly review.
During the week at the Cotton Exchange
business generally has been dull, and values
of spot cotton are half cent lower than on
Monday. Bayers, both for export and spin
ning account, were taking but few parcels, and
tho aggregate saleH were only 6,324 bales, in
speculative way. A sharp decline caused quite
a flutter, and many of those who were long an
this aud next months created quite a panic in
their efforts to clobo np unprofitable deals.
Last week tho situation of affairs indicated
that there would be a corner in August, but
tables are completely turned, aud the bull ele
ment are making the best settlements possible.
Total sales of contracts were 155.850 bales,
with market closing weak.
