of the State Journal
An exciting soene was enacted in Grant
pettah, tan, on Thanday afternoon last,
caused by a proceednre not exaotly ac
cording to taw, bat one which we cannot
wonder at in view of the political parse-
oationa to which some of the people of
that pariah have been subjected. The
only wonder ia that personal vengeance,
smarting under s sense of injoalioe and
tyranny, does not oftaner get the better
of men's discretion and reverence for
taw. On this occasion, when the steamer
Bart Able touched at a landing on Bed
river, near Oolfax, a body of men boarded
her and demanded one of her passengers,
Baford Blunt, a Htate Senator. The
Captain interceded, and Blunt took refuge
in his state room, locking the door.
Finding that persuasion would do no
good, the Captain rang the bell for the
boat to be backed oat into the stream,
end the invaders, when abe began to
move, jumped ashore, greatly to tbe re
lief of tbe terrified and no doubt oon-
saienoe-amitten Senator, it may be that
another prosecution will follow this sot,
and we notice it chiefly in anticipation of
more trouble about it.
Ton New York World otamiflea the
United States Senators to show tbs prob
abilities of early party changes in the
body. Of the Senators whose terma ex
tend beyond the 4th of March next, 81
aro Bepnblioan and 16 Opposition. To
the Opposition it adds G newly-eleoted
Senators from California, Connecticut,
Kaaaaa, Maryland, Ohio and Virginia,
though the new Senators from California
and Kansas were net sleeted as Demo-
erala, but sa Independents, This makea
21 Opposition. The World adds five
more as certain from Delaware, Missouri,
Tennessee, Texas and West Virginia—
making 26. Of tbe 18 remaining States
that have to elect Senators next winter,
the Opposition moat get 12 to give
them a majority—an acquisition
which the World thinks possible
and it considers the ohanoe of the Oppo
sition In each of these 18 States, exoept
Vermont, as good as that of their oppo
nents. We do net, and wonld be well
satisfied with the aseuranoe that tbe Op
position can carry half of them. These
18 States are Florida, Indiana, Iiouiaiana,
Maine, Maaaaohaaetta, Michigan, Minna-
eota, Nevada, New Jersey, New York,
Pennsylvania, Vermont and Wisconsin.
It is now certain, however, that the
Itadioai majority of two-thtids in the Sen
ate will be lost after the 4th of Msroh
next, and tbs strong probability is that
the Bepublicans will not have a majority
of more than ten or twelve in tbs Senate
after that time. A full Senate oontalna
seventy-four members.
Ttaa Hunts rills AdaotaU, the Bepabli-
ean paper of North Alabama, aad oldest
In the State, publishes the following dec
larations of a negro masting held in its
etty:
“Any Bepnblioan who is opposed to the
Civil Bights bill, had better leave the
oonntry. He is bound to go under."
“Besolved, That we shall not give our
support to say candidate who ia not in

Also the following note sent to the
editor by the teacher of a colored school
in Hunts villa:
“Stop my paper 1 Your editorial of
last week is not consistent with the Be-
pnbttann party or the oolored people."
The editor, commenting on tbe above,
nays that if support of the Civil Bights

After a complimentary notice of this pa
per, the Republican, with a shrewdness
that ia admirable—bat in tbis tnstthee
mlsdireoted—gives several quotations
from the article referred to, aad then
aaya: “Georgia has become the last
stronghold of tea Damociacy—the last
ditch of the rebellion:—of its ignorant
prejudice and undying hatred i”. and
again, “Georgia ia evidently no pleas tor
any Northern men—Democrat of Kepeb-
liean—to go to, unless be wiabea his life
endangered and bla wife insulted by the
brutal, igabmat classes who arrogate to
themselves tbe position of leaders and
assassinate every one who differs from
teem.” The Republican shrewdly giver
the whole matter a political turn, and one
that ia so ill-founded that we moat beg it
to give this statement as wide pufaiMty us
it did tbe other, and we kbow that,
strongly partisan aa tbe Republican ia, its
spirit of fair ploy wilt induce H to do so.
Hare ia the truth of It, and it wiU be
seen at once that much of the harm done
us since we have been Booth
bean by the ostensible supporters
of the Administration. Aa we first ant
aounaed, we made the EwquiaBO-Stm
a thoroughly independent paper—a news
paper devoted to the material progress
and political rights of the State and sec
tion we had msdWour home. We had
been publishing our paper but a short
tims when we began to Idas subscribers,
bnt they lived in Alabama and held oflloes
under the Bepnblioan rule of that State.
The first insulting letter we ever received
from Georgia was from a naan who was an
applicant for a prominent Fedeiil ap
pointment. Bnt tbe dropping of our
paper, and the writing of tatters by igno
rant Federal applicants for office, did not
begin our tronblea. While Georgia has
been law-abiding and paaeeful, Alabama—
tbs State just over the river ftom Oolnm-
baa, and tha ona which so strongly sup
ports the Administration—haa been the
•oene of lawlessness unchecked,end mur
der unpunished. Against these fearful
crimes we raised our voiee and shouted
for Juatloe. Three-fourths of tbe man.
derers and all the State and ooaoty judges
and officials wars Bapublioana; bnt there
seemed no jnatice,no safety to property or
life, and onr denunciations brought down
on us all the wrath of these officials, and
all the venom of the aoonaed and their
friends, who in nearly.avasy instance are
supporters of tbe Administration, St’Hiia
adventurers who take their obanoesirlth
the party that promises suoaess. Wo have”
one-half our subscribers in Alabama, and'
while we have lost many of our so-oalled
Bepublioan readers, we have gained from
the other class, and this while we have oars,
fully avoided linking ourselves to either
party, though the Republican asserts to
the contrary. We have been bullied, lied
about, threatened and an effort mdse
to aasaainate us,but ih every pass the trou
ble has emanated from the raiders from
Alabama, aided by their sympathisers of
the same class hare.
It may ba a triok of the Bepublicans to.
drive us away and so make political capi
tal, because we live in e Demoorctio State;
indeed, ii is tbs oommon-aonae view to
take of It, for the Democrats wonld ljave
everything to loaa and the Bepubliocns
everything to gain by our leaving under
such oircumstanoss. The ao-oalled sup
porters of the Administration imagined,
because we cease from the North, we
would fight their battles; indeed, some
of them intimated this in the first flush of
a familiarity that has bsoome ioy cold.
But while we love the Union.and obeyH*
lawe, and will go for any gaod man for
office, we cannot support the great mass
of unprincipled adventurers who ding to
tha Bepublioan ship, tike barnacles, at
tached only while they are nourished.
Bnt this is not eU While we like and rc-
epaet General Grant, we have a thorough
dislike for many of the political leaders in
South Carolina, Alabama, Florida, Missia-
sippi, Arkansas and Louisiana. At great
expense to ourselves, we had a correspon
dent in New Orleans—a Bepublioan who
had grown sick of Kellogg’a infamy, ’fra
got all the facts we could and sent to
New Orleans targe extra editions. Bnt
our paper was suppressed there; the
polioe prevented the newsboys from car
rying it; and onr correspondent had to
flee for his life nnder threats of assassina
tion from Bspublicans.
These are the facts, and we might uito
them by the hundreds. Should we be
forced to leave the South, we
will plaoe muah of tbe blame at
the door of the man who imagine tholr
fealty to the administration is a license to
inaolsooe and lawlsmnam, Aa we have
often said, we wish from our heart Dem
ocracy was dead and with it the dominant
party. Both have outlived their useful
ness. The party to.whioh we will give
allegiance is not yet born.
As to the advice to "shun Georgia,” it
is good, particularly to oarpet-baggers
and lawless men; but to those who come
to make this their boms and to grow rich
on its products, and not on its blood,
there ia no better State in tbs Union; wad
the father you get bock from the vicinity
of Alabama's Judges and the contagion of
Alabama lawlessness aad murder, the
bettor it is.
We do not mean to any there are not
idle, thriftless men hem, as there are in
every Stats, nor to assert that every man
you mast loves a Northern man Uksa
brother. Them am man impoverished by
the war, and now unable to reclaim
their wealth, who naturally fool Bore,
and there am idle men whom one
meets swaggering about pubtio plsoss.and
cursing Yankees; bnt it wonldbs a mis
take, nay a wrong,to class either element,
mom pettionlarty the tatter, as a type of
the Southern aeon, or an exponent of
Southern feeling.
Them is muoh in Georgia that ws<
would change, but much of the, fqntafrjtellflrffi) ag|ligd hund«ed» of words
aa t)ugr Tereprtaeenosiby the Principal.
They named and explained tec massing of
each mark nsed in punctuation. They gave
dear, distinct examples of all the vowel
sounds of the English language, formed
s tbe letters of the alphabet on tbe boards,
and defined many of v the words found in
testa UMteBeaden. ‘
Noon came. Then dinner—and such a
dinner! A sight of that table dispelled

Miter Enfuirtr-Sun .'—Friday, tha
19th ef June, 1874, was .one day that will
baismeaebered by many.who enjoyed it
amid the rural scenes of .Talbot county.
From your standpoint. aa editor and
-orate* of the dqy, the publiq may get the
benefit of the impressions which you re-
ceived. Will you permit a farmer to offer
some of Lis impressions
Yon know that tbe olsss I represent are
expaoted to allow others to do all their

to tbs lawyer, for legal information ; to
tbe editor, for political knowledge; to tbe

allow a yeoman to ,bq heard just this
onoe ?
Friday, tbe 19th instant, dawned upon
our ruotlo homes lu Muscogee amid one
of those fogs whioh aro a natural sequence
of yesterday afternoon’s shower,
were en route fur Bowery Academy, Tal
bot eonnty, with the early duwi). Wend
ing PUS wag between corn-fields waving
before tbe early breeze opr hearts were
ehqered. We felt encouraged, as we
viewjcj those brood fields burthened with
growing‘'staff of life.” Over these vast
dchnins “Kirfg’ Cotton" lias ruled since
’«6. How our hearts were gladdened by
tha thought that the present exceedingly
“tight yeer"VflI merge into 1875 as tbe
first year of real independence experienc
ed by Georgians since 18G5. Two hours’
drive browght our party to the line of old
Btafria. Corn here predominated slightly
over grass and weeds, but magnificently
vovsr ooUou.
. i li my fields reminded ns of tbe glori
ous , days, Of plfnty which prevailed in
ante beUum days, The beautiful pros
pect was unbroken until wo orossod tbe
bouudury of Talbot. Hero we found
ourselves a component part of a 1 consider
able earamn. „^t eooh interception of the
highway onr.gprubera wero increased,
“What Bplendid corn!” “The smoke
home!" “The day of
erop-lient belongs to thj past!” Theae
and kindred exclamations constantly
greeted the ear. A few minutes past
if o’clook we reached Bowery Academy.
From crops o’ar,st(entioh was attracted to
tlio crowds of people already assembled.
And truly such s concourse of people is
Ssffi6ni'*9efr1n : any Tarsi district of the
South.
The ixltelUgence of nearly a aoore of
counties was reprottcnled in the multitude
by which the beautiful school-room was
throngSd and'surrounded. The Aoademy
is a neat attd’tasty edifice, erected upon a
beautiful Award, whioh gently slopes
about twd hundred yards from the front
dodr’ W thta' Colutiib'ris had Talbotton
road. HI* 1 ft large school-room, yet ita
doors, windows, the eolonsde, ell were
peeked; and hundreds were unable to se
cure eey of these positions. Through
tbe kindness of a friend the writer se
cured a sent' within the sehool-room.
Upon the rostrum was a class of neatly
dressed youth, whose agee ranged from
twelve to twenty years. We were at once
struck With the calm composure ' they
manifested. Onr astonishment gave plaoe
to the absolnte Wonder at the rapidity,
aconraey and thoroughness of their work.
Tho answer to each question propounded,
as well os the euuuoiation of each taw ia
aeeh science, was followed by the olesr,
distinct voice of the Principal, in the
short interrogatory “Why ?" This short,
trite, blit alt important word, was the sub
sequent of each troth asserted or methe-
maticat operation performed. Nor was
there a moment's hesitation. Clearly,
distinctly and deliberately was given a
reason for everything.
Mr.< Bditor, let 'the honost inquirer for
troth eonsnk any of the many intelligent
men and women who were privileged to
.*>t>W.tfMB<We<«ita*>.„&et the aston-
taking results of earnest teaching receive
its duo.
When rhetoric was |he subject upon
the tuple, to the gratifying astonishment
of all who were unacquainted with the
system of instruction at Bowery, a small
boy presented a diagram in which by the
picture of a natural tree he traoed the
English. language through all its laby-
rintbiochanges from the Hebrew, giving
a succinct history, with the various
changes made, the names it has assumed,
with the dates of each. Thoroughness
was the watehword in Buglieh grammar,
philosophy, mathematics, Latin, Greek—
indeed ia evety branch introduced. We
thought sorely these classes are selected for
their profloienoy. They are the superiors of
the many pupils of this very large school.
Wo were uodeceivod when the juvenile
department was iuirodooed. Tbe moot
of throe ore experiencing their first year
in tea sohool-ruom. They have boon
mainly under the tuition of MBs Miller,
a lady assistant teacher, who was entirely
ednooted by the Principal. This little
army of eighteen (I had almost said in-
to quantity, profusion is the word. As to
quality, I know no word that will expri
it, unless I am allowed to say, "It was too
good to talk or write ebont.”
The afternooa’e exercises, notwith
standing the exoposive beat, were con
ducted before an earnest mnltitnde, many
of whom stood apon their feet for boar*.
At 6 o'clock r. u. the people repaired to
atargechnrob, situated a few hundred
yards from tbs Academy, and listened to
an Address, .to whioh one objection only
eau correctly be urged—namely, it woe
too abort.
Major, when yoa visit tbe yeomanry of
Talbot again, don’t be so ahort-wiaded
You mode many friends here. But yon
ore one of tbe few pnbiio speakers who
closed too. quickly for the people.
In conclusion, if any of your readers
desire to see the workings of live teachers
and a school where success is expected on
ly as the result of earnest, indefatigable
tabor, let them visit Bowery Academy at
any time when the sobool ia in session.
Oh for more such schools! Hare we saw
end were proud of the' two little sons of
W. C. Hoff, of Muscogee. We feel as-
■nrod that their parents were rejoiced
when these little boys were examined up
on their studies for hours with scaroely a
hesitation. There were many pupils from
different counties, cud some from Ale*
barns. If such schools constituted tbe
predominating feature of Georgia, it
would require no prophet to prediot her
future. CntoMiTos.
Deputy Marshals Williford and Ban-
dolph arrested two white men named
Burch and a oolored mao named York

The grasshopper plague, which is rav

nomena of infinitesaimal agencies aggre
gated into gigantic and omnipotent force.
It is an enemy which has corns in like s
flood upon the farmers of that region. It
is ns terrible and onqaeuoliable es tbe
fires of tbe dreedfal autumn thrice years
ego. It "oleans out" entire -counties.
Oh.ads as heavy and Uliok as a winter's
storm pose athwart the sky for fonr or five
days in sneoeeaion. Wherever they re
main they strip tbe fields of everything.
They eat the wheat—both head and straw.
They destroy the smeller orops, upon
which tbe farmer depends for his prenut
food—core, potatoes, pets. Pumpkins
clone sre spared. They devastate great
sections of country, end' leave tbe inhab
itants with absolutely nothing to eat for
tbe ooming fall and winter. The appeal
which has been made to aid these people
ib so appeal in behalf of a people literally
on the verge of starvation. The insects
sre called grasshoppers, bnt are of an un
usual variety and allied to the loeost fami
ly. Their vitality is wonderful. One of
them was hung up by e string for a week,
bnt seemed to grow fat on it.
