Columbia, S. 0., got book mors thsn
bar investment in tbe Kentucky Lottery.
“ Spboxb ” writes from Washington,
April 6 th, to the Atlanta Herald: “Ur.
Stephens is doing very well—playing
whist occasionally with the ladies.”
Joan G. fcUxx baa got back to bis New
England home from bis Southern lectur
ing tonr, in good health and spirits, and
expresses himself mneh pleased with his
reoeption.
Tax Tallahassee Floridian reports that
on Tuesday last one J. G. Greeley, assist,
ed by the sheriff and a negro posse, took
possession of the Jacksonville, Pensacola
and Mobile Railroad.
It is said that a Congressional Commit,
tee will soon report a bill incorporating a
company to bring immigrants to tbe
United States and locate them. We have
not seen the provisions of the bill, bnt
we are satisfied that it dose not oontem.
plate any favor to the Sooth.
Pbesidekt Gbabt is credited with a
sharp thrust at Sumner's well known ego
tism. Some one charged, in the presence
of Grant, that Sumner had no faith in
the Bible. “Why should Sumner have
faith in the Bible?" said Grant—“he
didn’t write it.”
Thu Chicago Timet suggests a way in
which money may be mndo plenty and
“cheap'’ without the expense of printing.
Congress has only to enact (hat all Con
federate notes now outstanding shall be
legal tenders, and receivable for all taxes
and all dues,to the United States.
Mn. Ebnebt Sktd, a London banker,
and a financial writer of some reputation,
has published a communication in the
London Timet, in which ho statos that
the gold coin in circulation in the United
Kingdom is about .005,000,01)0, Instead
of a little less than .£85,000,000, as re
cently estimated by, tlic i Chief of the
United Statos Bureau of'SUtislics.
Tub Atlanta Herald confirms the Athona
Watchman', statement that Hon. B. U.
Hill had nothing tp do with tbe anoouuoe-
inont in the first-named paper that he
would “stand for Congress" in the Ninth
District. So it is plain that something,
the very revorne of “standing," has been
stirred up in the warfare agaiust Mr. Hill
on this account.
A srxaiAn dispatch from Washington to
the New Orleans Timet says that the re
port of the Senate Commilteo on Trans
portation will not recommend any appro
priations for iuternal improvements, but
will recommond that new surveys bo made
for all principal routes for transportation
to tho sea of products West and South.
Tho report will also favor Eads’ jetty job.
A connESPONDBNT of the St. Louis Re
publican states that Pinohbaok was ex
cluded from the United States Senate not
on acoonnt of tbe illegality of his elec
tion, but because tbe wives of loyal Sena
tors wore uuwilling to reoeive his family
as they would have been obliged to do,
under the court law, if he had been ad-
mitted.
Gaines Chisolm is represented by the
Atlanta HeraUl to have lost forty-five
pounds in weight since his imprison
ment ; and a correspondent of tho Augus
te Chronicle learns that be is threatened
with delirium, and vomits daily—a condi
tion attributed to a contusion of the brain
made by Bedell’s heel in tbe altercation
previous to the Bhoofing.
Tux Grifllu Nem reports the death of
Mrs. M. E. Brewer, President of the
Ladies’ Memorial Association of Griffin—
a noble lady, who took a leading part in
paying luitalile honors to tbe memory of
the Confederate dead. Tbe Nem also
hears of the death, on Tuesday night
last, of Mr. James P. Maugham, one of
the oldest citizens of Piko county.
Toe Washington National Republican
of Saturday aays i “The Senate Commit
tee on Privileges and Elections will, in all
probability, report in favor of the aboli
tion of the Electoral College in tbe elec
tion of President and Vice President. The
present plan of oloction is exceedingly
cumbrous end unsatisfactory, more calcu
lated to defeat the will of the people than
to ratify it."
Late diapatohea from Cube mention e
case which may lead to more diplomacy
between tbe U. S. and Spain. A man
named Frederick A. Dockery, who was
formerly United States Collector at Jack
sonville, Fla., baa been arrested in the
interior of Cuba, with papers on his per
son which, tbe Spanish officiate aay, show
that he has beon in communication with
the insurgents. If they find him guilty,
they will probably oxeoute him.
The building of the new village Dear
Boston, which is to be occupied nud gov
erned solely by womeu, has been com
menced. It is to be called Aurora. A fit
name. The statuo of Memnon gave
forth every day a mournful wail, whioh
was represented to be the voice of Aurora
weeping for a man—her son. The mod
ern Aurora will probably soon utter daily
wails for absent men, quite as siooero, if
not ao long oontinnod, as those of the
Htatue near Thebes.

OVTfit TBITS POLICY.
Hie American Grocer, of New York,
has ohanged Hi form somewhat, doubling
the size of its pages and reducing, the
number one-half, it is now In more ooq.
Vinfint form -for handling find for thi
ready finding of any of ilk content*. It
is a sterling publication—careful and re
liable in its quotations, varied and enter
taining in its contents, and ao generally
used by the Urge wholesale dealers at an
advertising medium, as to make it jaet
the thing for retail dealem to reoeive
regularly. Indeed, we do not see how an
enterprising gtooer, who-wishes to keep
all the time up with stocks, the demands
of the market, the extent of production,
Ao., can well do without it.
The lest number of the Oroeer con tains
i excellent and well-oonsidered artlole
on the true policy for the Booth—one
which proves it to be as well informed in
referenda to the condition and true econ
omy of producers as it la in regard to the
state of the markets. Our limit* will not
allow ns to copy in foil thi* artlole, to
which onr attention has been dlraoted.
The AtUnta ConiUtution extracts the
pith, of whioh we make use. No nation,
it says at the outset, ever grows wealthy
by tbe production of raw materials alone.
Individuals mej; nations never. The
created wealth oan only beoome a perma
nent investment through tbe added veins
whioh manufacturing give*. Tbe condi
tion of the South fully demonstrate* the
truth of the proposition. The war,
with its vigilant blookade’ led to a
remarkable development in the right di
rection, cresting the wonderful Nitre and
Mining Barean, the immense foundries
and maohine shops of Richmond and
Selma, tb* ootton factories of dolnmbus,
and the wooUn mills of North Carolina;
but the reaction which followed the oloee
of tbe war impeded, to say (he least, fur
tber progress in the true direction. And
it msy well be questioned, says the Oro
eer, whether the South, as a nnit, is as
well off to-dey as it was on the let day of
April, 1865—in other words, not • cent of
profit has been put in Southern pockets,
in the aggregate, from the productions of
tho soil since the dose of the war.
To remedy this state of affair* a new
departure must be taken in accordance
with altered oironmstenoea. The old ideas
of prosperity mast be forever abandoned.
Diversified industry and manafaotaring
coupled with eoooomy end temporary
self-denial are the only roads to thorough
solvency and a renewal of prosperity in
tbe South. Planters must raise their own
provisions first—^then nil the ootton they
osn afterwards. More and more of thlk
cotton mast have value added to it it
home by spinning it into yarn and weav
ing it into doth. The mines end quarries
forests and all the natural endow
ments of tbe Sunny Booth must be ntil
ized and made to yield wealth for all. To
do Ibis requires skilled labor, end ednoa-
tion and encouragement in the direction
of technical knowledge most accompany
the new depertnre.
True, the South has no money to do ell
this. Bnt we must be oontent with hum
ble beginnings. First of all we must he
roically live within onr meanB; raise ell
the corn, hogs, wheat, oats, potatoes, fruit
and poultry that wa need; pay cash as
far as possible for everything, and make
all tbe cotton in addition that we oan. In
this way we will aoonmulate money, ex
tend our manufactures, establish direct
trade, sod emerge from the gloom of debt
end dependence into the free air of a
broad and substantial prosperity. We
must got out of debt. We must look to
ourselves for tbe capital that we need, for
comparatively little of it will ever oome
from abroad.
IGommunleoted,]
AMUSEMENT* VS. RELIGION.
Some Bort of religions faith seems to be
a necessity to the human mind and heart,
for we fiud very few men, either civilized
or savage, who do not acknowledge the
existence of a God and their obligationa
to Him, and who do not believe there is
to be a future existence for them either
of pleasure or pain; nor do we find many
who do not hope, after death, to lire
again in a stare, purer, holier, more bliss
ful thau their present surroundings.
Their actions and words may seem to de
ny it, yet in tbe stillness of tbe night
watches, and when all nature is bushed
into repose, thought will reveal, lodged
deep in their heart of hearts an intense
longing for a solution of the mystery of
their being, the question will oome, Am
I immortal ? Wilt the spirit whioh now
animates this body live again ? Aud
where > After death will this flash become
tbe sport of tho winds till the last day,
aud then be gathered by the voioe of tbe
Eternal, and formed into this seme mould?
These feet, these hands, this face be like
themselves, so that wife, mother, chil
dren, friends will know me again? Will
I know the loved ones whose bodies I
have laid in tbe grave ? Are we all to
moot at the feet of Him who created us,
and the mauy bright worlds I eee floating
yonder ? Will that meeting be joyons or
sad V Am I to bo held to a atriot aooonnt
for the deeds of this life ?
Would this second life for whioh I hope
be pleasant unless purer and better
the present ? Would Heaven be a |
of rest, poaco and fadeless joys if the
good aud tho bad ere to live together
there as here? Can I reasonably hope
for Heaven after death nnleas I ao live
here as through grace to be worthy of it ?
Ought not my life to mauifeat my desire
for the purity and bliss of the home of
tbe good ? How can I leern to live bo e*
to be fit for Heaven ? Is the Bible really
the Word of God, and a true chart to
guide me safely to that haven of
pesos? Is Jesus Christ the only- Sa
viour of sinners such as I ? DM He
institute the Cburob as • help for
poor, erring men ? Are men oalled and
commissioned by God to taaoh me Hie
word and point me the way ? What right
have they to fix rules and and aet
up creeds and say, “Lo! this way,”
“Lo! that?” May not thi* be
meroiful provision of the all-wise
Heavenly Father to suit the mental differ
ences in His creatures ? My associates
differ about almost every subject present
ed to them. If there was but one Church
and but one class of taaahem, might not
some of us poor opinionated creatures be
come disgusted with what we might please j
to oall Us absurdities and naver seek its
help in** saltation of oursoola? May
not ttd* dUfarttca in forms art doc-
trin* excite thl’ceal and stimulate lo
gosd work* tbe adherents of each ? Any-
how, | '■ am fordid to believe God has
accepted .moat of tbe ohurches of
thie day, no matter what their peculiar
ereeda or how many volumes one must
read to find what particular route they
propose to heeren. They all preach
Christ the Saviour; bed men beoome
good inride the fold, end the world is cer
tainly better by their influence. One
test may think balls, theatres, and the
like are not *vil, while another does; one
allows its members the largest liberty in
amusements, while another forbids cer
tain indulgences. Here, for instance, I
eee the Methodist say balls and theatres
are evil and lead to sin, and that its
members must not indulge in such
amusements. Can I consent to join
them with that rule in their discipline?
I know it ie there, and admit their right
to put it there, for they ere a ohuroh
owned and acknowledged of God. Is it
reasonable in me to demand its removal,
because I would like to dance? There
are several million Methodists in the
tbe world who promised to obey these
tales when they joined, and it wonld cer
tainly appear ridiculous in me to insist on
absolving them from their solemn vows
to make room for me. If I must dance e
little in order to get with the refined end
elegant of tb* world, I will have to look
for someehnrehbettet suited to my views,
for the Methodiit discipline, though a
wary little book, is certainly very
rigid ss to elegant amusements
end if I were to take its vows, I should
regret exceedingly to go whineinrj around
afterward*, deploring the fact that my
church limited my privileges. My miud,
heart, all my nature tells me Jesus Christ
lived, suffered, died, and just before this
final not of redemption He instituted the
saorament of the holy communion, to be
kept through all time by His disciples in
memory of Him. The church aloue has
authority so to administer this holy sacra
ment as to make it an acceptable offering.
I must keep this feast or surrender my
hope of heaven. No matter how per
plexed about creeds and faith I may be,
my conscience tells me I must commem
orate the death struggle of Christ, if I
hope for salvation through Him. How
can I do this unless connected with some
branch of the church, whose fruits will
prove it a true vine planted by tho Bav-
tout ? It may not be very important wbioh
1 join, but one I must. These very strict
sects are of recent origin comparatively,
yet they have numbered their oonverts by
the million, and I have never yet seen a
man who honestly tried to keep their rules
and live aoeording to their teachings, that
was injured in his Booial relations or felt
that be was deprived of any privileges
worth enjoying. They rather seem to be
elevated, made better in every sense, more
truthful, lew abiding, gentlemanly, and
never complain about the Btrictness of
their ohuroh rules. So, if I really dosire
to get to heaven, whioh I think I could
do, through the mercy of God, by their
help, os well as any other sort, I will calm
ly decide into whioh branch I will cast my
lot, and then resolve, come wesl or woe,
I will obey its rules and live as nearly as
I oan np to its teachings. G.

OBITUARY.
ROBERT ASA, only ton of George and Cornelia
ft Uuogerford, died by accidental drowning, April
9,1874, aged 11 years and 5 days.
The waters safely kept their dead till the fourth
day, and then gate him up for the sad offleos of
affliction; and now the precious dust sleeps peace
fully in the quiet grave. Rut he is not there.
Under a bereavement so sudden, so crushing, the
parents and tbolr family are greatly xusioioed by
the sympathies of tho^community, expressed so
kindly and in so many ways, and by the mercies
of God. n.
