der the caption of "Harrows,” occurs
this passage: “Driving tho Thomas
harrow across the field and over the
corn, which at the last plowing was a

should have been harrowing, tor the
first plowing after corn was planted
did not take place until of hr tho corn
was a foot high.

The above slip sounds “snobbish”
to the uninitiated Southerner.
Nothing more can lie needed to se
cure tho active co-operation of the

what has called itself the Republican

Thebe is a guild of washerwomen
in Paris, consisting of no less than
15,000 women, earning 60,000,000 francs
per year. An average laundry in Paris
employs about twenty women, who
earn 50c. per day; but 50c. a day in
Paris is worth as much as a dollar a
day in New York.
Mbs. Minnie Shebman Pitch is like
tho fellow who drew the elephant
about, her diamonds. A special law
has passed allowing hor husband to
receive them, but he must pay $17,-
500 for the privilege. This is more ,
than a year’s work for Sherman, and ,
a life’s labor for Fitch. When she |
gets tho necklace, what will she do
with it? i
H. B. Olafi.in & Cos. This enor

A. T. Stewart & Cos., a far more ex
tensive house, has no special class of (
customers; it is the house for the

her carriage, and takes a seat next a
washerwoman with tier basket.
A recent decision of the Supreme <
Court declares that the rigid to vote 1
is not necessary to constitute citizen
ship, and a State lias the right to re
strict suffrage. Under the Fourteenth
Amendment women are said to lie
citizens, and as sueli entitled to the
privileges pertaining to a citizen.
Tho Supremo Court have decided that
tho right of suffrage is not made in
terms one of the privileges, and wo
men are not allowed to vote.
The Arkansas Hot Springs property
six hundred and forty acres the

Alabama UrHiiKc Jlovriiient*.
The Grangers of Alabama have a
rare treat in store, in tho proposed
visit of Col. W. H. Chambers, Col. S.
S. Scott and Gen. E. D. Johnston.
They will visit, during the Spring
and Summer, every Grange in the
State, with a view to more thorough
ly organizing and instructing them j
regarding the aims and future of t hat •
body. Hereafter we. may look for
nioro concert of action and uuanimi- 1
ty of purpose, thus securing them
greater advantages and the Order ,
more strength and confidence. i
Tho New York Herald says; “For
ten years tho North has been holding
out the olive brunch, and for ten
years it has been spurned. When
love is combined with patience, it is
sure to win in the end. So our hope
has been and is now that the South
may begin to really know the North ;
that tho Issues or the war will be 1
burled under the green fields that t
now cover tho scenes of the former <
strife; that the bitterness of the eon- i
test will only be remembered as Eng- <
iishmen remember tho wars of the I
Cavaliers and the Roundheads, of
the Jacobins and the Hanoverians—
for the romance, chivalry, poetry of
the times, and not as provocative of '
present dissention and hatred.”
Mistake. The "olive branch” (so- <
sailed) was accepted, but turned out <
to be “the deadly Upas tree.” It has f
ilmost paralyzed us hy its touch. i

A scone Indicative ft the uitor neg
lect, of attempting to raise our own
1 meat at homo presented itself yester
day. For a distance of half a mile wo
, saw a fence consisting of two rails
nailed near tho top of the posts high
enough to prevent cattle or mules
from jumping over tills enclosure.
[ The field will shortly bo planted, and
’ is on one of the most frequently trav
eled of tho public roads leading to
Columbus. No provision whatever
1 lias been or will lie made to protect
the crops from hogs, sheep or goats,
and in this the tenant has shown his
economy, for there is absolutely no
danger from either, since each seems
an oxtinet species in the country in
this part of Georgia.
Indiscriminate abuse of our plant
ers will not do, nor is it at all neces
sary to tender thorn advice as to tho
advisability of their raising their own
supplies. They know as much about
tills, reader, as you do. Experience
lias taught them that bad laws, and
worse administration of the few good
ones, have rendered it impossible to
raise bacon, beef, mutton, veal or kid,
owing to the certain uncertainty that
will attend the, effort, The only se
cure place to raise hogs in this part
of Georgia is at the livery stables,
and in the towns. In tho country, his
porkship cannot attain that impor
tant longevity yclept ‘a two year old.’
AVe were told yesterday that the only
thorough bred Alderney bull in South
or West Georgia, perhaps, was sold
for s4l. Think of this ye happy pos
sessors of short-horns that sometimes
sell for S2S,(KID a cow.
Turn out a yearling heifer worth
SIOO to graze, and if you don’t put her
in a stable at night, under lock and
key, some sable brother will turn her
into beef before morning, just as if
she was wortli ouly $lO and did not
have a bit of ‘blue blood.’ Is there no
remedy?
Gov. .Smith, in a speech before the
Agricultural Society at Athens, a few
years ago, recommended that a breach
of contract be made a penal offence.
Cannot someone suggest some pro
vision by which an enterprising far
mer may raise live stock of improved
breeds here, and thus do away with
“razor-back” hogs, and cattle whose
protruding bones seem only fit to
split planks on?
Mr. iiluiuc lu Connectlrul.
The late Speaker, llou. James G.
Blaine, has made a speech in Con
necticut which sounds the key-note
for the Radical programme next year
In the Presidential election.
Mr. Blaine appeals to tho war prej
udices of tho North. Ho urges the
Nortli to hold the political power,
and there is nothing in his speech that
evinces a desire of friendly relations
between the North and tho South.
He claims that Wendell Phillips and
General Logan cannot speak as freely
in Georgia, as Lamar and Gordon
did in New Hampshire. Wo wish
someone, in replying to Mr. Blaine,
would give it to him in Horace Gree
ley’s style, “you lie, you villain, you
lie.” His mendacity, we fear, will be
followed by other party leaders, and,
under the banner, “tho end justifies
tho means,” they will endeavor to
heap renewed outrages on tho South.
The next fight will be for the balance
of power, and the great West will de
cide the issue. New England lias
ceased to bo the arbitrary ruler of the
Republic. Mr. Blaine’s speech, how
ever, will go to sustain the moderate
course followed by Air. Stephens, in
Congress, and for which he has been j
so severely condemned.

Has it ever occurred to the young
men of Columbus that tho reputation
of a city reflects in a measure upon
its citizens ? Will it not militate
against their employment in some
localities ? The opinions culled from :
our exchanges show that Columbus
is winning leuilen opinions instead of
golden ones. Let the Grand Jury
either allow every one to carry con
cealed weapons (td libitum, or pro
hibit it practically as well as in
theory. Tho citizens of our little
city seem to have less personal secu
rity and more license than they would
have in Paris, a city of 1,500,000 in
habitants. Botli murder and drunk-j
enness are rarely seen there, and!
neither citizens nor policemen carry
arms. The policeman’s baton is the
shield of prince and peasant, and tho
written law supercedes that which is ;
unwritten, until it is traced in letters j
of blood through tho heart of the
victim.

Augusta Chronicle: A few days since
we published a statement made by a
gentleman connected with a Liver
pool cotton house to the effect that
tho “cotton articles” of certain Geor
gia papers and the “estimates” of the
Financial Chronicle cost the planters
at least, ten millions of dollars on the
last crop. That, is to sav, the publi
cations alluded to aided tho cotton
speculators of New York and Liver
pool to force the market down so as
to take that sum from the producer
of tlic staple. The Savannah Afinas
contains a capital article on tho mis
chief which has been done, either in
tentionally or unintentionally, by
these “cotton editors” to the agricul
tural interests of our section. The
Chronicle ami Sentinel exposed these
absurd publications and showed how
much harm they were capable of do
ing. We published several editorial
articles ami communications plainly
demonstrating the egregious blunders
of the writer of the pieces; men of
largo experience in the cotton trade;
planters who had spent their whole I
lives in the production of the staple '
did tlie same thing. The “cotton ed
itor,”! however, seemed to have nei
ther eyes nor ears for what was going
on around him, and continued, uri- i
moved, to strengthen the hands of j
the bears at the expense of tlie strug- !
gliiig South. We h jpe* that the fruits
of the work, which was so materially
aided by those articles, will not en
courage similar publications during i
the coming season.
Wo are glad to see tho Chronicle
and Sentinel and the Atlanta Herald
taking a manly stand upon this sub- j
jeet, AVe believe the opinion of a
child as to the amount of the future
crop is as reliable as that of certain
Solons who have so long monopolized
all the knowledge on this subject, I
and whose articles have certainly re
sulted in lowering the price of the
staple, to tho injury of the planters.
AVe do not charge any design on tin
part of the writers, but think they
should write impartially, or not at
all.
l*n l> 11 <- Men in France mill t lie Wilted
Mate*.
The death of Edgurd Quinet, says
the Cincinnati Enquirer, removes one
of those men, common in France, but
exceptional in America, who combine
in a remarkable degree, literature and
polities. In France Thiers and Gui
zot, Lamartine, Victor Hugo and Al
fred do Musset, are as well known in
the studies of tlie librarians, us in the |
Cabinet of Ministers. Dumas hasj
mingled tlie plot and the sentiment
of both his novels and plays with j
those socio-political ideas which are
now, and for many years have been
at tlie very root of politics. De
Tooqueville was a politician, and Oil i
ver, Napoleon’s last Premier, was
sufficiently recognized in literature
to secure his admission to the Acade
my. “Even Napoleon himself is an
example of the combination, and
Beranger, upon the other side, was
certainly no less so. M. Leon
Say, the new Minister of McMahon’s
latest Cabinet, is us well known in
one department as in the other, and
his predecessor under tlie Empire,;
Pierre Mugne, was as clear ami forci- j
ble In his essays as in his statements, j
And such a man, although of less
note, was Quinet. But Quinet was |
also a politician. Once, if not twice,
he was elected to the Chambers, ho
was an active participant in tlie move
ments which led to the revolution
in 18tH, and once he was driven into
banishment for political reasons. In
that undercurrent, half planned in
tho offices of tho journals, half in the
closets of the coucoctors of logical
but not infrequently impractical :
theories which so frequently makes
or sweeps away a Government or a ;
dynasty in France, Quinet was ever a !
busy and energetic worker. But he
never deserted his books and never
abandoned his pen; he was never
false to the wedlock between author
and politiciun. Such a union in so
many phases os the writers we have
named, and scores of others, natural
ly suggests, is among the commonest
aspects of the active elements of
French society, while its rarity among 1
ourselves is so apparent thut it lias
become self-evident, and is common-!
ted upon by almost every foreigner!
of observation who lias traveled in ;
our country.”
We have often asserted, and have
always believed, that our ablest men j
are not sent, either to the State Leg
islature or to the Congress of the
United States. Look around you, j
anywhere in tho Southern States, and
perhaps in other sections of the coun
try it is equally true, and you will
find that the daily wages of the Pro
fessor, or tlie man of literary attain
ments, is less than that of a good me
chanic.

AVe publish the following from a
circular issued lately by tlie Republi
can party at Concord, N. H., on thi
eve of tlie late election in the Granite
State. It is us follows:
“See to it, that the party which
dares to insult you and heap dishonor
on the graves of your sons who died
in battle, by bringing here tho rebel
Generals, Gordon and Lamar, who
still swear by tlie lost cause, to in
struct you in your political duties.
Behave in a manner which will effec
tually prevent a repetition of the in
sult.' Come on all, in your might,
and strike down the perjured Bour
bon yearningilynasty, and once more
raise over our beloved State the stan
dard of an honest government.”
Could there be anything morally
baser ? Could there be anything more
disastrous to the country than such
tin appeal ? Gen. Gordon, of (ieorgiu,
and Gen. Lamar, of Mississippi, were,
it is true, in the Confederate service,
or sympathized with that cause. For
it, under Republican policy, they have
been forgiven. Gen. Gordon is a Sen
ator from Georgia, and Gen. Lamar a
member of the House from Missis
sippi. They were considered worthy
to be members of aC-ongrcss of which
two-thirds in each brunch were Re
publicans. Upon all occasions they
were conservative in their action.

So deep is the interest, felt iu this

and conveyed with occasional flashes
of his peculiar aptness of expression,
will rivet public attention. His bear

lent, as everybody expected it would
be, because, whether innocent or
guilty, he possesses, among the abun
