The Cincinnati Gazette advocates tbo
pAHHuge of a law making provision for
putting habitual drunkards under guar
dianship, and establishing hospitals for
their reclamation.
The Mississippi Legislature haa adopted
n resolution to entertain no proposition
looking to the formation of a new county
and Mississippi has only ubout half as
many counties as Georgia.
The Tennessee river was rising at tho
rato of about five inchos per hour, at
Chattanooga, on Saturday night, but it
would then have required a line of ut
least ton foot more to mnko an overflow
Late Tennessee papers spoak of tho
growing whoat crop in that State as the
most promising one they have had ut this
season of tho year for a long time. It is
feared that late cold woather Iias de
stroyed tho buds of some of tho fruit
trees.
The Cuthbort Ajrpcul hears of consider
able damage from tho heavy rains of Mon
day and Tuesday last, to lands in its see-
lion. It is also reported that GofT’a and
Hall’s mill dams were washed away, while
many others were tested to their groatest
capacity.
It is slated that Mr. Dawes lmd the host
prospect of elootion to succeed Hiunner
as IJuitod States Honator from Massachu
setts, until a dispatch from Washington
unuoiiucod that Hon Hutlor was for him,
and this nnuouucoinout has driven off a
number of his supporters. Many of tli
Republicans of Massachusetts rcgaid the
dofual of Hutler in all his movements
tho chief end of politioal exertion.
A GOBRKHI’ONDENT of the Chattanooga
Times tells of two drovers from Tounes
see who mot at Atlanta. One had mules
und tho other hogs. Hotli complained of
hard times aud a dull market, each main-
tabling thut his own slock was hardest to
got oir. Finally they swapped stock
trade, upon tho basis of three pouuds of
hog for one of mule, and each went on
his way rojoioiug in tho belief that he
had traded advantageously.
The Trustees of tho Cincinnati South
ern Railroad have located the lino in Ton-
nessoo os far south as the Emory river.
From this point they have yet to make
choice of two routes to Chattanooga—one
by way of Uookwood, dowu tho Tennessee
valley on its western side ; tho other oast
of tho Teunessoe, crossing the East Ten
nessee, Virginia A Georgia Railroad at
Sweetwater, and passing through Athens
aud Clovelaud.
Foun uogroes were caught in the act of
stealing cotton out of the Grangers' ware
house in Montgomery, Ala,, on Tuesday
night. They wore required to give
their own bonds for appearance at the
Oily Court, and if they mu off before the
Court nioetN, the State, according to tho
reasoning of tho Montgomery Journal,
will be uono tho worse off, und tho roRult
will show “a wiso adaptations of means
to ends," Or, if they should appear, and
the indictment should fail to state that
the cotton was “a thing of value," they
will, ace >rd»ug to a lato ruling of tho Su
preme Court of Alabama, bo held guilt
less and acquitted.
The Fort OuiucH Messenger of Friday
morning sayH that the river came to a
stand thero on Thursdiy morning, uml
bad then risen to within two feet of high
water mark in the “Harrison freshet,"
and higher than at any other time since;
that groat fears were entertained for the
safety of the hridgo over tho Clmttuhoo-

If there be any country in the world
w here men anxious to work can secure an
abundance of employment, that place is
the one in which we live. Yet, from the
number of idle men one sees iu our
streets, about every croaa-roada grocery
and unimportaut railroad station, ona
would think there was nothing to do, or
that the labor of the oountry was out on
a general strike. After all, the black
population is the one on wbioh our farm
ers must depend, and on the farmers de
pends our success next fall. Rut tbe
black people os a body are not working as
they should. Ride in any direction through
the country, and you will meet scores of
able-bodied negroes, armed with singlo-
barreled shot guns and followed by lean
dogs ; and these fellows are destroying
wantonly the birds more useful than
themselves, ami as they are out for game, . 9
wo imagine, rather than return empty- I lil^IiCHL -McHnOt Pl’lCC
handed, they would not hesitate at
killing a domestic animal, if they
had a chsnoe of carrying it
off. True, one seos dozens of
lazy white men and vagrant boys
engaged in tho same calling, and the won
der is that Homo law cannot be wade to
reach them. To the abundance of shot
guns may ho attributed the abundance of
the cotton worm, and until shot-guns,
curs and thriftless hunters are suppressed
hogs stand no chance, end the insects
thut prey upou the cotton plant flourish.
An idea of tho utter idleness prevailing
may be gleauod from the following inci
dent, related to us by a merchant, doing
business in Marshall, just Across the riv
er: His store was crowded by nogroos
seeking light end remumerstive work,

Tho ex i.eincut ouil alarm among the

regular prayer meetings, aud a nutube
have joined the churches. An account
before ns gravely says “If this noise is
followed by uo destructive oiuptiou, it
will be a good thiug for these people iu a
religious point of view.” We are con
strained to doubt this. A religious senti
ment scared up in this way is apt to sub

A IT.AHITL I'K'Tt'RI', OF RXTRAV
AOANCE.
Tho llouorahle Fernando Wood, ol . .
New York, on Saturday last made a IT
speech arraigning the Grant administra
tion for corruption and extravagauce.
Mr. Wood is a member of the House
Committee of Ways und Means, aud is
consequently well informed ou this sub
ject. Wo reproduce a slight skotch from
tho fourful picture as drawn by him :
“A thousand millions drawn from the
people iu tuxes during three years, when
$(100,000,000 was ample for all necessi
ties. Nearly $15,000,000 oxpeuded in
the several branches of the public Norvico
iu 18711, aguiust less thau $(>,000,000 iu
1808. A Civil Hervico thut employed 80,-
1550 persons in 1878, against 44,r>00 in
1800, or more thau are employed in tho
civil list of Germany, France and Eng
land togollior. The payment of over
$40,000,000 premium for the privilege of
anticipating the public debt which
was not due for twouty years. A produc
tion of $<>40,000,000 in uino years post
from the mines, of which hut $270,128,-
720 has beeu coined at the mints. During
the Hinny period the receipt by the Treas
ury of $1,500,124,288 for duties on im
ports, making an aggregate of over two
thousuud millions, eud a depreciated and
irredeemable paper ourrenoy not only
continued but increased. Extravagance
and profligacy, tho ruling feature of tho
Administration, which iu turn have diffus
ed through tho cuuutry pernicious notions
of the character and functions of the
Government, and taught the rising gen
eration that any road to woalth is tho truo
ouo but that ot industry end economy.
The national resources waiting to bo de
veloped ou souud principles of produc
tion. 1 ho usurpation of Htato authority
by tho Federal Government aud the sub- j
stitutiou of nuarohy or despotism. It is
picture that augurs badly for u
republic."
AN AYl'EAL.
That a worthy appeal made to tho heart !
of our citizens will he always responded
to, was showu by tho generotuty of last
full, when rich aud poor, in the midst of I
a financial panic, gavo with free baud i
their menus to uid tho sufferiug in Shrevc-
port, Memphis, Montgomery and Rain- 1
bridge. On that occasion Columbus did
better than any city iu the country of her
population. We know of a deaf aud
dumb man, aged twonty-six, who, poor
and friendless, aud deprived of the means
of expretuting his wauls, is dying of con- '
sumption iu our midst. Our office has
been supplying him with medicine, but
ho needs something more. Worn down, I
emaciated, hungry aud voiceless, his claims j
come to our hearts with a stronger calling I
thau if God had blessed him with the
power of speech. Let our kind ladies
help ua iu clotbiug, feeding aud admiuis- 1
toring to the few wants of this poor man,
whoso stay with us will be short at the
beHt. Perhaps, iu the great hereafter,
tho voice domed Liui here will plead for i
those who aided him, when the summona I
ia seut calling us to the Presence where j
he found a perpetual healing.

Have Just Received a New Lot of Men’s and Boy’s
CLOTHING,
At a reduction of 20 to 25 per cent, on former whole
sale cost prices, which will enable them to sell at less than
Cost prices for the same class of goods purchased earlier
In the season. As we were able to get a still- further re
duction of from 5 to 6 per cent, for the cash, we will sell
at corresponding low prices. Now is the time to buy good
Clothing at lower prices than ever sold in this section.
