XOV-PIIUIIICKII*.
The fact of our dally decline us n
people, In wealth and independence,
attracts the attention of the roost
careless and indifferent; as well as
the fact that the wealt h of the coun
try Is centralizing In the hands of the
few, causing a disintegration in soci
ety, which is alarming in its tendency
as well as hurtful in its present oper
ations. This is not true of America
only, but it is equally true of Euro
pean nations, and csi>eclnlly so in
England, where, thirty years ago, the
manufacturing interest was carried
on by the lubor of the capitalist as
well as by his money the employer
working with the employed. How,
the large manufacturer bus swallow
ed the smaller, and the working men
are organized In industrial armies,
and are known only to the employer
as they receive their wages through
the hole of the pay office, to ho spent
for the week’s provision bills and
other necessities of life. Why is it
thus, and why does it continue ? The
laboring classes, which ure by far the
majority, arc seldom beyond the con
lines of want and destitution; they
are daily becoming more numerous,
but still are no better situated in re
gurd to the necessities of the future.
Thoy receive a very fair and equitable
compensation for their labor, upon
the principle of supply and demand.
Is it duo to their not being properly
educated In regard to economy and
the importance of providing for tho
future ? It is not wholly due to defi
ciency in economy, hut is partly, if
not In a very great degree, due to tho
centralizing influence which pervades
sooioty - t he disposition to congregate
In cities thereby increasing the vast
and unproportioned majority of non
producers as compared to tho few
who remain in the country to till the
land. "Win the day not soon dawn
when farming will tie us honorable as
merchandising, as the professions, as
manufacturing, or any other business
carried on in cities when manhood
and youth will cultivate the broad
acres, that-ure now barren and de
serted, and for sale for a mere song ?
We ure not of those who are so
narrow-tnindod as not to see, in life,
many fields of employment, in which
to cultivate a diversity of talent,
according as one’s Inclinations may
lead; nor do wo believe all should be
farmers; but to those who are poor
and needy those who are living from
day to day who are struggling for
something in tho scale of fortune to
turn up, we would say why not turn
your backs upon the city, and go
where water is pure and clear, where
the air is devoid of the foul taint of
the city, and reap in tho golden luir
yoat, health and competency for self
and family of puny, sickly children,
who are now subjected, in the towns
and cities, to tho worst social influ
ences? Laud is cheap, very cheap,
either to rent or purchase. Have you
nut tried the city sufficiently to test
your future increase there? How fast
are you growing rich ? How many of
you livo and die, after a life of dili
gent labor in the city, as poor as you
began? It is true, the city lias its
advantages, but It likewise lias its
disadvantages. One sees more, hoars
more, and in that sense lives more;
but with it all there arc many temp
tations—temptations to sin, to spend
money foolishly, to spend one’s time
in idleness and vice. While, in the
country, you might not see so much
of tho world and its doings, yet, you
would feel moro; you would bo inde
pendent upon your own land, and
would not bo numbered among that
class of dependents, the non-pro
ducers and there is notone of that
class but whose future is as “Night,
In the zenith of her dark domain.’’
To our <'orrrt.|M>mli'nt.
We are in receipt of several letters
propounding questions. To the wri
ters we will say that in our Sunday's
issue we will endeavor to answer
them, and as many more ns may he
received by that time.
We have received several commu
nications recently, which wo like and
admire, but under the rule we can
not publish them, for they are not
accompanied by the name of tho au
thor. We hold the name of any con
tributor a sacred secret, and it will
not be given to the public; so when
you write us interesting communica
tions, don’t hesitate to send your
name.

The joint Finance Commltte, in
their report on the appropriation bill
relating to the salaries of legislative
and judicial oflioors of tho State rec
ommended decreasing tho following
salaries: They substitute one in the
plane of two clerks for the Comptrol
ler General, and tlx the salaries of
the clerk of the Secretary of State,
the clerk of the State Treasurer and
the clerk of the Comptroller General
at $1,500, instead of SI,OOO. They cut
down the salary of the State Libra
rian from SI,OOO to $1,200. Tho com
pensation of the journalizing clerks
of the Senate and House were chang
ed from $750 to S4OO. The clerks of
the House and Senate are hereafter
to receive $5 per day instead of SB.
The assistant door and gallery keep
ers of the houses will draw $5 per day
instead of $7. The porters are to re
ceive $s i>er day instead of $5. The
committee changes the number of
l*ag('s from two to one, and will pay
him $2 per day. They will hereafter
allow the State $12,000 Instead of $20,-
000 for the maintenance of her public
buildings.
In the London Time* many persons
have argued pro and eon. the ques
tion whether vultures are drawn to
carrion bv the senseof sight or smell.
Far tiro larger number of facts ad
duced sustain the theory that the
sense of sight alone is the guide.
UI'R ATI.ANTI I.KTTEIt.
H|m r ini Corre*i'ndrnoe of the Daily Tnom.J
Atlanta, Ga., Feb. 2d, 1875.
One of the great questions in which
the whole State feds a deep Interest
has been readied by the Senate. They
have made the usury question the spe
cial order for to-morrow. A lively de
bate is sure to tie had over it. The
j general opinion is that no legislation
will bo made on the subject; but there
arc quite a number of men in the Sen
ate who arc proud to lie called “old
fogies,” and who want all our laws
like these of our fathers.
The general sentiment of tho peo
ple, however, is against any re-enact
ment of usury laws. The press of the
State is almost unanimously arrayed
against any legislation on the sub
ject. Notwithstanding tho fact that,
there are many men of tine abilities
who favor a usury law, still there can
be no doubt but that they are advo
cating an expedient which is con
demned by tlie experience of all na
tions, and Is contrary to the funda
mental rules of political economy.
It may be safely predicted that if a
usury law were put In force neither
debtors tier creditors would receive
any material benefit, and it would
soon lie found politic to erase the
statute. In tills, as well as in all oth
er questions of governmental policy,
it will be found that experience is the
best of teachers —the safest of guides.
The duties of the Comptroller Gen
eral have boon greatly lightened by a
bill which has just been passed, pro
viding that tho agricultural returns
of the Htate will hereafter be consoli
dated and published by the Commis
sioner of Agriculture.
Chancellor Tucker lias been invited
to address botli branches of the Leg
islature on “The Wants and Condi
tion of the Slate University.” This
institution is much in need of a con
siderable amount of money for re
pairs, and as soon as the State can af
ford it, an entirely new set of build
ings ought to lie orccted.
Mr. Wortlien introduced a bill in
tlie House on yesterday which will
meet the hearty approval of every far
mer. It authorizes the Governor to
offer a reward or ssoofor (lie arrest, of
any incendiary guilty of burning a
gin-house. Tlie bill is just what is
needed. There has been far too great
a destruction of proiwrty on farms in
Georgia for tlie past, two years. No
less than fifty gin-houses were burned
during last year, and nearly all this
number were fired by incendiaries.
Tho perpetrators of these crimes
should lie apprehended and made to
suffer the severest penalty of the law.
Mr. Worthen’s hill will cause tlie au
thorities to be more watchful, and
bring many a villain to justice.
Tho negroes who attacked Casey in
ids own cellar, about a week ago, have
acknowledged the deed, and one has
confessed that the murder of Mrs.
Casey was also contemplated. Pub
lic feeling ifl very strong against, tlie
murderers, anil it is morally certain
that the gallows will soon receive two
worthy victims.
Tlie competition between the eity
iiewspopers continues as strong as
ever. There are four daily papers
published in Atlanta, which puts it
ahead of any city in the South in this
line. We suppose t hey all manage to
live, but the struggle of some of them
must be hard.
Col. Peterson Thweatt lias given
vent to his outraged feelings in a se
rial entitled "Whipped, lint not Con
quered.”
His energetic zeal deserves success.

Skei.no the paragraph about tlie fif
ty morphia bottles found in the trunk
of a Vicksburg woman, a writer on
the Petersburg tVa.) Index remarks:
“That looks like a pretty free use of
the narcotic, but we know even a
more excessive use of tlie deadly
drug. A lady of this State who died
some years ago left behind two flour
barrels filled with morphia bottles.
It was calculated by her husband
that her indulgence had cost him ten
thousand dollars through the several
years during which her vitality re
sisted and survived its effects.
“Banditti Punch” is advertised by
the New Orleans saloon keepers, and
when a gentleman wants a friend to
drink with him his invitation is thus
expressed; “Are you afraid ?” The
friend answers, "I am not afraid,”
and the two proceed to splice tlie
main brace.

A Hist Kxlrtuirillnary litiilrtmil Acci
dent.
The Bay City (Mich.) Chronicle of
Tuesday has tlie following: “On the
Detroit unit Buy City Railroad, on
Thursday night last, an accident oc
curred which eclipses anything on
record in the annals of railroading.
The accident occurred on the south
bound night express. It appears that
when tlie train was in tlie vicinity of
Oxford. Conductor Noyes felt a slight
blit sudden shock, and heard the bell
rope snap. He sprang to the brake,
and after setting it, swung his lamp
fertile engine to stop. Tlie train
went a distance of four or live lengths
before heing halted, but when it came
to a standstill everything was fomul
to be ail right excepting that one
Blue Line ear just ahead of the ims
senger coach was missing. A search
was instituted, and the missing ear
was found in tlie ditch in tlie rear
of the train. From tiuit po
sition of tilings it appeared
that the front end of the
ear had jumped tlie track, severing
the connection witli tlie ear ahead as
it did so. The combined force of the
ears in t lie roar as they came down on
the “off" oar served to end it around
until finally the rear draw-bar twist
ed it off (tho night was very frosty, I
and the ear was free. The couches
kept pushing it further, until fniallv
the Blue Line had been sent entirely
from the track, and at right angles
with it, clearing the rail by fully
three feet. The rear coaches rolled
past the ditched ear as if nothing had
happened, and stopped without acci
dent or without the Knowledge of the
passengers several car lengths be
yond. The engine stopped and back
ed u[', connections were made, tlie
trackmen were sent for to gauge tlie
rails, and the train one ear short,
proceeded on Us way, making its
meeting point at the next station,
whore tlie particulars of the accident
were stated, and the remarkable af
fair duly discussed with the attaches
of the north bound train, which was
met at that point.

-On Thursday morning last the

The Atlanta Herald prints a full
synopsis of Col. W. H. Sparks’ lecture
oh S. S. Prentiss in that city a few
nights sineo, and says it was "splen

that line lias ever been heard in At
lanta.”
It is understood Gov. Smith will
order an election to fill the vacancy
occasioned by the death of Mr. Mc-

—A woman fiend name: I Carrie Gun
left her infant child at the Central

Columbus. The police of Macon ob
tained her description und had her
arrested in Fort Valley, and carried
back to Macon.
—For some time past the Houth
western Railroad attachees have been
trying to catch the man who lias re
peatedly placed obstructions on the
road. They succeeded in finding the
name of the individual, and on infor
mation of the fact one Jack Calhoun
left these parts.
Gen. D. M. Dußose, of Washing
ton, drew the grand piano in the At
lanta ConetiUttUm'* prize drawing
last Saturday night. The Herald.
says all the prizes were drawn by
persons outside of Atlanta, and that
tlie proprietors of the ConetUuiion
announce this to he the last drawing
it will ever have. The receipts at the
door were something over $10(1, which
was turned over to the Orphans’
Home.
—Why Atlanta is called the Gate
City is'explained by the LaGrauge
Ueporter as follows: This question,
often asked, is now solved. It. is be
cause of the number of gates about
the passenger depot, all of which are
constantly kept shut. When a pas
senger gets off a train [in the depot,
lie is compelled to hunt all around
the depot to find a gate that is not
locked. This is beneficial in one re
spect; it makes him swear that he
will not go to Atlanta again if lie can
help it and the more a man stays
away from Atlanta, as a general rule,
the better off lie is. Then, again,
when ho wants to return home, lie j
must hunt all around tlie depot again
to find a little hole to creep through.
When lie finds this, he must show a ;
ticket before lie is allowed to enter.
Sometimes a man simply wants to
bid a friend goodbye, m which ease
he must, buy a ticket of admission or
kiss his friend through tile liars.
Tills also hfts its effect; it induces
him to curse the authorities in At
lanta, and they need it if anybody
does, for they are guilty of downrigh t
tyranny in enacting such regulations
about the depot und enforcing them
by the police. If the tiling is not
better arranged by the time we go to
Atlanta again, we shall get the Pres
ident to declare the authorities ban
ditti, and turn them over to,Sheridan.
Tho mail robber of Macon has at
last been caught in the person of u
white boy fifteen years old. His name
is riot given. The authorities found
in ids possession over three hundred
letters, and with the letters several
drafts for large sums one draft being
for four thousand dollars. The Tele
graph says:
Wesuw the heaps of mail yesterday.
Some of them were too badly defaced
for tlie superscription to be read ; but
many of them wore notat all, or only
slightly damaged. A large number
of letters were for Messrs, s. Waxei
baum & Urn. There were also many
for Rogers & Bonn, F. H. Johnson &
Sons, the Exchange Bank, Seymour,
Tinsley &Cos Hardeman & Sparks,
11. Findlay’s Sons, tlie Brown House,
R. W. &S. H. Jem non, Isaac Harde
man, and others. Many of tlie let
ters contained drafts. We saw one
draft for $4,(100, another tor $1,149.
and fifteen or twenty others for vari
ous amounts, and tlie eon tents of only
a few of the letters were examined in
our presence, and they were only of
those that were for the Exchange
Bank and Messrs. Rogers A Bonn.
The boy appears to have laid no no
tion of the value of the drafts, or else
was too.cunning to attempt to use
them. Each one seemed to have been
replaced in tlie letter in which it be
longed. Probably his object, was to
find letters containing money. How
well he succeeded in this will possibly
never he known.
The boy says he has been carrying
oil this system of lobbing tlie mails
since November, but letters wore
found in his deposit which dated fur
ther back than that. Whether his
depository contained all the letters
he lias ever taken is not known. The
probability, i* that he has destroyed
manv.
