PetiMlimliiK Our Mfilillrrn. • It Is with tho greatest pride we learn that a bill 1h now before the Georgia Legislature looking to a proper tare of our wounded Confed erate soldiers, and tho maintenance of wMowb and orphans of Confeder ate soldiers. This duty has too long been neglected, and neglected not for tho want of gratitude anti a full appreciation on our part, but from nil overdue regard to the pulsations of the bitter Northern heart, This plan has been thought of long years ago, but men who were more cau tious than brave ami open, opposed It for fear It would hurt us at tho North. This sort of boot-licking and weukness has vanished and is num bered among the things that wore, und to-day Georgia holds up her head and proclaims to the world that she will recognize her dead and the jieople of her dead. Him no longer va cillates between fear of oppression nnd right, but proclaims to the world that we will assert our man hood, showing a proper regard for ourselvc s by jconsioning our soldiers. And pray, why not? Does not the Fed eral Government exi>erid the mon ey paid in by the tax-pay ers, and lavishly, too, spend it in recognition nnd praise of the Federal dead ? Are not their soldiers all eared for at our expense ? Why then should not Georgia have the right to respect and revere our dead, without being branded as rebels, traitors, &c. The proposition to pension them is right, nnd we hope the noble gentlemen in tho .legislature, will see to it that Geor gia be bold enough to assort her self respect, not caring whether or not it suits the peculiar ideas of the North, having a care only to tho constitu tionality of the law. Georgia is fast getting out of the debt Bullock & Cos. placed upon her, and the mass of the citizens are willing that some of the resources of the State, shall go for that purpose. The Confederate Con vention which met in Atlanta a few days ago, are the movers in this great question, for the brave men who met In that Convention, have sworn to aid the Indigent and cripple, and with their influence, will secure to their wards, poor people, a compe tency. They are the defenders of Geor gia, and wo know she will guard and protect thorn “through all time.” Fiton the New York Herahl we gather this condemnation of Grant. They say: The military interference at Vicksburg bus an exceedingly ug ly look ufter the apologetic disclaim ers put forth In the President’s Mes sage. After the President had at tempted to screen the Louisiana in terference behind the assertion that army officers are not lawyers, there by making an implied admission that they had overstepped legal limits, (hey would naturally refrain from taking any similar stop on their own judgment and await, commands from headquarters before venturing to net. It is therefore important to know by whose orders tho troops acted at Vicksburg. Assuredly Gen. Emory would not have dared, without a spo eilio command, to disregard the Mes sage aud make a practical denial of its sincerity. It is incredible that the orders in the Vicksburg case did not emanate from Washington. No body but the President himself would have dared to thus stamp the Message as a false disclaimer and a hollow apology. And yet it will not surprise us to And Senator Morton, on some bright morning, excusing the President on the ground that the whole thing took place without his knowledge. We are obliged for such kindly no tices as the following, and hopo the good pooplo of Bullock will take the Ledger, and subscribe also to a sound democratic. pnjier tire Times. If any of tho people of Bullock county wish a good newsy paper, published in Columbus, we unhesita tingly recommend the Times as such, send for si>ecimon copies. -Union Sirring* ledger. ♦ We are under renewed obligations to Senator Gordon for a Congression al directory, and to Hon. H. It. Harris for speeches of Carl Hohurz and others. Well do these gentlemen il lustrate us in tlie National Halls, and making for Georgia tho reputation she enjoyed before tho war for intel ligence aud refinement. Gov. Taylor, (Republican) Wiscon sin, delivered his message to the Leg islature on Friday last. He says: “If authority exist in any brunch of the Federal Government for what appears to be assumed by recent, proceedings In the State of Louisiana, and in the extraordinary proposals of the Lieu tenant General of tho Army in his dlßpatoh from Now Orleans, I be lieve the tin}® lias come for us all to bury partisan spirit in a common effort for the preservation of our con stitutional sovereignty, and the in herited liberties of the American people.” The war of indl>endenoe in Cuba, which has so often been declared at an end by Spanish official accounts, seems to have gained new life and vigor. It is reported that the j>atri ots are laying waste the dlstrot of the Clnco Villas, west of the trocha, in spite of the legionaries of Alfonso. —ln the city of Oognac, France, there is an establishment fitted with an automatic indicator to guard against fire. It is simply a thermom eter so constructed that when the mercury rises to a certain point it starts an electric alarm, which rings a bell in the proprietor’s quarters. It provides ajminst fire as tho ordi nary burglar alarms against thieves. ■I YT< 111 * 111 HULL NEWS. Ik-ported tor thu Timm by Denuiti McCarthy.] Hatchbciil'libse, January 25, 1875. THE. COTTON SITUATION. The Financial Chronicle views the matter with one eye. Its estimate of the crop of 1871 '75 seems to lie pretty generally accepted by the financial world as in the main correct. Now, we cannot be accused of be ing wortli more than a generous ex emption law provides for us, yet we will wager “our grand-uncle’s hat” that the Financial Chronicle will miss its estimate of to-day at least a half million bales. Tho Chronicle argues that the recent heavy rains retards planters from marketing the staple. To this, we say "correct;” for there is but little left to market. Again, the Chronicle says “this is less a credit crop than any since the war.” We beg leave to differ. It is more a credit crop than any since the war, for every factor and supply merchant who ad vanced will tell you that the shadow of Christmas had hardly passed away before they were besieged on all sides for credit. Business ojamed fully by February Ist, 1874. The Chronicle ar gues ; “Owing to the fact of its being less a credit crop, &c\, the farmer was better enabled to hold his cotton for future price#.” Will the Chroni cle now allow us to notify him of one fact (and I call on all commission merchants to sustain the trutli of my assertion), that the credit of 1874 ’75 was the heaviest (according to prices) ever Is 1 fore known to them, ami that the amounts asked for by the planter was consumed at or by the time his crop was laid by, arid having exhaust ed said amounts asked for, and hav ing no other resources, supplies were not issued to the hands making the crop until tno cotton was marketed, and nothing but cotton prevented a general utarvatvm; hence it was witli such unprecedented rapidity the crop was marketed. The actual outlay to the farmer in having to commence on a credit so soon to make the crop, and like the army worm, who devours the vegetation around him, turns then to devouring himself to prevent xtarra tion—actual xlarcatton, which threat ened every farmer’s the .South. Wo say emphatically, and every farmer knows it, that for a space of two months (take the entire county of RusselDthere was not two thousand pounds of bacon issued as rations by farmers to their hands. This was from July Ist to tho latter part of August. The reason evidently was because of the planter’s inability to get fur ther advances, lie having exhausted tiie amount ho asked for from ids commission merchant. Another rea son may have been, in some instances, the poor prospect for a crop. Tills poverty did not belong alone to Rus sell county, Alabama, for we con versed with numerous planters from other counties of this State, and the States of Georgia and Mississippi. If the farmers were so “flush” as the Chronicle would have us think, why did so many do without bacon for a space of two months? And just here, we would remind the Chronicle that bacon is one of the essential elements used in the culture of cotton, and without which, u Southerns r does not think he cun exist twenty-four hours. The crop of 1871 ’5 was hypothecated for food and fully covered by ad vances by the time it was laid by. The farmer to-day is poorer than lie was two years ago, and with a less prospect of help from his commission merchant, the majority of whom have carried the farmers as long as they could —verging on towards bankrupt ing themselves, in the novel experi ment of butting against the wall. The truth can bo summed up in a few words. The farmer after (laying his commission merchant had nothing to eat and had to sell the whole of his crop to enable him to pay up and buy a morsel of meat and bread to eke out a miserable existence until Feb ruary next, when lie again seeks his friend (the percenter,) without whose assistance the farmer could not exist at all. Again, tlie Chronicle sees it in this light, “In Louisiana, for instance, the threatening asi>et of affairs lias completely retarded operations.” Now, is it not the hoight of folly to think that n starving populace, such as the average Southern planter, would hold all lie has in this world of worldly goods, to-wit, tiis cotton, at home under his gin house, subject to an incendiary’s torch? No, if such a state of affairs exists in Louisiana as we are taught to believe, is it not fair to presume that tlie farmer hurried off his crop as fast as gathered and ginned, to prevent such demons from applying the torch; then we argue, taking “self preservation ns tlie first law of nature,” that there is less cot ton in Louisiana than any of the Southern States, save, probably, the State of South Carolina. We have a brother who has recently written us, under date of January 2d, “that from actual observation, after having traveled four months in Texas, that it was the shortest cotton crop raised in that State since the war, and marketed more rapidly, owing to the excellent condition of the roads.” We can then safely say that the “Financial Chronicle lias seen this crop witli but one eye,” and that eye had at least a cool $50,000 to balance its financial vision. FIRF.. On Saturday night, übout 10 o’clock, tho kitchen of Dr. Grief Chambers was burned to the ground, consuming tho contents therein, and at one time threatened the destruction of his residence, which was more than once on fire. Occurred near the residence of Mr. Alexander McMukin, who ren dered valuable services, assisted by several of the oolored folks. The loss is a serious one to Dr. C. in these hard times. About tho hour this fire occurred a bright light was seen In a northeast direction, which was evidently that of a house on fire, as it only burned about thirty-five minutes. A good muny predicted the lire was 111 Co lumbus. StnCIIJE OF A VOI’NO FEMALE. We wero informed by a Mr. Porter, residing near Porter’s mill, on Hatch* , echubbec creek, some four miles from the “city,” that Miss Harvey, daughter of the widow Harvey und sister to Mr. Charles Harvey, aged about eighteen years, committed sui cide by drowning herself in the mill pond of Mr. Hamp Porter, on Satur day night. As to the aause of this unfortunate stop we hear several re ports ; one is that it was because she , could not get employment. She had made application to us, through a small boy, on lust Saturday, and had nlso made application to a great many in the neighborhood, without success. The deceased bore u good character, and was industrious,and respected in the community in which she lived. We will probably get the facts to day. PERSONAL. The map man was in town to-day.
