Under flics above Ciqition the At
lanta Coiix/i/utioif is justly rebuked
in a must incisive manner by the
Swidpwyillfl Herald, ivlio.se editorial
comments are ever chaste and neat
us well us to the point. If the Comti
tut ion reflects the true feeling of the
south toward the vandal comjucror
of women and children, wo deserve
all the attacks that Bluiuo und JBd-
niiinds and Conklin have made
upon our people. Hut wo are proud to
know that the .toadyism which oc
casiomdly crops out iu our ablest
nowspujN'i-h does not reflect the spirit
of goouioc southern manhood. The
Herald says:
“ *i,)mvn to I ho sou’und ‘fyliormnn’s
Second Skip Sou tip arc tho attractive
heiulings to an article iu tho Atlanta
Constitutionof (lie 25Lh inst. an
nouncing the visit of Gen. Tecutnsoh.
Sherman to tho ‘gate city.’ The
direct object of the trip it is said, is
to examine certain abandoned mili
tary post* and other neglected
property of tho United States in
Florida and Atlanta, with a viewio
securing the rights of tho general
government therein.
To uo officer us we think does the
Smith owe her downfall more than
to Sherman, and nowhere wero the
relentless and remorseless horrors
of war umre keenly inflicted than iu
the desolating Duck of this modern
Attila. And while it does not ac
cord with that spirit of high toned
chivalry which marks tho truo .South-
run to gibe and joor at the merciless
despot, as ho may visit the scones of
hiH heartless cruelty, yqt the craven
spirit that would orouch and fawn
at his feet is equally removed from
the instincts of a noble naturo. This
article speaks complacently of the
total binning of the city by bis sol
diers, as ‘one of tho most noted feat
ures of his long triumphant inaroh
to tiio sea.’ A reporter of tho Con
stitution was scat to the barracks to
learn what steps wore takou for his
reception. It learned that thoro
would be at least two balls given iu
his honor, and expresses tho, hope
that tho Geuoral ’will enjoy his visit
fully.* ..v/a,v. , ;.i,

About half-past ten o'clock on
Monday morning, 20th inst., whilo
the mother, Mrs. SbetliMd. stepi>ed
out of the house for a buckob of wa

yean old, was mam toddling along
towards the door, with her clothes
iu a light blare, and tho flumes play

lips of the little sufferer. Tho

clothing had boon almost consumed
before any one succeeded in gotting

frightful, somo tortious being bnrnt
almost to a crisp. She lived uliout
18 boars, breathing lior last about
4 o'clock Tuesday morning.

The next groat, event after Christ
mas is .Mardi Gms. It has Wn tie
cidcd by two or three mystic societies
that they will not have the annual
exhibition this year. It nmv Ik* well
to say wlmt the Mardi Gras celebra
tions consist of. The exhibitions ure
given by three societies: the Knights
of Mounts, Who have a torchlight
procession, usually the week before
Mardi Gras; the Mystic Krowe of Co
inns, who have theirs on Mardi Gras
night; and Uex, the king of the car
nival, who apitcara during tiic day
The two formor are private organiza
tions, maintained by tho young men
of the city, who give their exhibitions
principally for the benefit of their
friends iu tho city, and as both or
ganizations have lost muuy of their
members, they have unanimously de
cided not to have the usual process
ions. Hex, however, is an entertain
ment given by tho merchants of the
city, for the benefit of. the thousands
of strangers who are here at that
rime, and would bo very much disap
pointed if he bad no celebration; so
Ilex bus decided that be will do all
that be can to*show that there is life
in the old land yet, and will have a
grand procession on his arrival, when
lie takes the keys of tho city from
the mayor, and anuthor procession
on Mardi Gras, followed by a hull t ho
Hiiinc night. And it is probable that
the city will ho just as gay this year
as it usually isd uriug. the carnival;

Hogs in the West.
Oorncjrondenc■: of die Oincinnati Enquirer.
r»B8 Morjr es, Iowa Jan nary 24,1870
I have passed through Imvn, Illinois
and Wisconsin within the last two
days, and have talked with hundreds
of farmers and hog-buyers about the
hog crop. They almost invariably
say that the available hogs arc now
almost all shipped to market. This
morning I met a hog-buyor who has
shipped several thousand hogs from
the Kcokun and Des Moins road,
when 1 asked him about the supply
in the country. He said:
“The great bulk of the hog crop
has been shipped. I have bought
hogs all winter for $2, *2,10 ui.d
*2,15 per hundred. Yesterday I
offered *2.25. but couldn’t find many.
The farmers couldn’t afford to feed
h«»gs and sell them for *2,10 ami run
the risk of hog cholera. So I say
they have sent them to market.
Yom know wc lost a quarter of a
million of hogs in Iowa last fall.”
“When will the next crop go iu ?
f asked.
“Oh. a fow hogs following cuttle
will continue to go in all winter, but
Mio next big shipment won’t be
iiiaclo till May or June. Farmers
won’t try to fatten bogs this cold
weather, It’s too cold, and has been
too cold for four weeks, to fatten
hogs. They won’t fatten.”
I find\hc hog crop in Indiana is
generally ih. Drovers told me in
Indianapolis that it was very hard
to pick up hogs in the country last
Monday.
Ill Chicago I asked ono of tho
largest packers in the eity why pork
continue^ to advance in tho fuce of
the receipt of 50,000 ai)d 60,000 hogs
per day,| . •
“Oh,” |to said, “pork has been so
cliqup that the whole world iuw been
buying it, and all at once wo find
that wq liuvo not enough left to sup
ply oursolves. We’ve been sending
dry sides to Liverpool and selling
them at four and ono-half cents pet
pound. This is absolutely less than
it cost, to feed, pack and transport it.
n»o world lias found this out, and
lias takcu it as fast as wo could ship
it.”
“That is the world—England.
Pruncq and Germany Imvo bought
their supply or pork at four and onp-
liulf.cents und now we’ve got to pay
a higher price for our own snip
ply?”
‘‘Exactly. .1 expect to sec live
hogs sell in Chicago inside of throe
weeks for four cents. That is what
they are worth if tho price is to be
governed by the law of supply and
demand. To bo snro wo’vo packed
a million and a half more hogs than
usual tins your, but this million and
a half surplus has gone abroad, and
now we’ve got the regular quantity
for liomq consumption and ordinary
foreign demand, It was an extraor
dinary foreign demand, oxcitcd by
pork soiling for less than it was
worth, that draw this great excess
out nf the .country,”
It is bolioved (irmly by all the far
mqrs with whom I liuvo talked that
pork must advance in the country in
western Iowa from *2.10 to *3. and
it ip b°liqyed, by packers in Chicago
that moss pork must go to *0 or *10
per barrel.
Tho farmers will refuse to feed,
hogs and sell thorn for *2 or *2.10*
as tlioy have been doing. I do not
expect to see a big advance in pork,
lint I do not qxpectrto see it strike a
level and sell for what it is actually
worth. Five and six cents a pound
for live bogs two yours ago stimulat
ed an excess, an over-production.
Two cents per pound this winter will
stimulate an under-production,
Tho hog raisors in Iowa, Kunsas,
and Missouri are providing warm
places for breeding hogs, and now
this breeding goes on all tho year
round. As fast as hogs get to a cer
tain size they are put in a pluce by
thomselves, that is, “bunched up”
and fattened. Many funnel's who
used to send in one bunch of hogs a
year finally got to sending two bun
ches, and now they send four or five
bunplies to market. It is this con
stant supply of tho nuirkot which
will prevent pork from going very
high—-higher than it is actually
worth.

From nil parts of the country reports
come of the immense sales and increasinu;
demand for that deservinjfiy popular Sew-
injC Machine*, The Old and ueliuhlc “Stan
dard,” the price of which tho proprietors
wisely reduced to $*20, including all the
nttacfimcnts, and at once secured fo- them
a popularity among the people, far liuvond
that ever yet attained by any other machine
at any price, the consequence of which is,
agents are leaving the old high priced ma
chines, and seeking territory for the “Stan
dard.” Knowing from experience that
with the best goods at the lowest price
they can outsell all other.machines, where
tlie superior quality and low price is made
known. This splendid machine combines
all the improvements. Is fnr ahead of nil
others in beauty and durability of its
work, ease of management, light ‘ running
and certainty of operation, "is sensibly
made upon sound principles, with positive
working parts all steel, and can ht* safely
put down as the perfection of a Serviceable
Shuttle Double Thread Sewing .Machine,
in every particular, that will outlast miy
machine, and at a price fur down below
auy other. It is thoroughly warranted for
live yours, Kept in order free of charge.
And sent to any part of the country for
examination bv the customer Indore pay

‘The Most Widely Quoted South
ern Newspaper.*
1879.
THE
1879.
ATLANTA DAILY CONST1TU-
Me have few promises to make for Tim
C onstitution for 1879. The paper speak*'
for itself, and upon that ground the mana
gers offer it to the public us the best, the
brightest, the newsiest, and the most com-
plete daily journal published in the south.
This is the verdict of our readers, and the '
verdict of the most critical pf our exchang
es, some of whose opinions we take pleasure
in presenting below.

alluding to some of the features which
have given The ( oNSTrruTioN prominence
among southern papers.
I. It prints all tho news, both by mail
and telegraph. ■ , ,1 ■ t
11 Its telegraphic service is fuller titan
that of any other Georgia paper—its spe
cial dispatches plqping it upon n footing,
so far as the news is concerned, with the
metropolitan journals. -
III. Its compilation of the news bv Until
is the freshest of the best, comiirising
everything of interest in the current news
paper literature of the day.
IV. Its editorial department is fail,
bright and \ ivarious, and its paragraphs
and opinions are more widely quoted than
l hose of iu»y other southern journal. It
«li.-«-usses all questions of public interest,
unil touches upon till current themes.
V. “Bill Arp,” the most genial of hu
morists, will continue to contribute to its
columns. “Old Si” and “Uftdc Remus”
will work in .their special, fields, and will
tarnish fun, both in prose and verse.
VI. It is a complete news, family and
agricultural journal. It ia edited .with the
greatest wire, and its columns ‘.contain
everything of interest in the dotnuiu of
polities, literature and science.
VIL I« addition to these, full reports of
the supreme court and of the proceedings
of the general assembly, will he published,*
and no pains will he spared to keep the
paper up to its present standard.
