Wo are kEi'l t.' • C"l Oladowskl, formerly Ocn. Braun's Chief of Ordnanoe, In our city. As | our readers know, he Is now ennagod In sui>erlnten<linK the work upon our river. We were glad to sec our friend Jno. W. Adams, K*q., of Atlanta. John honored us with a call yesterday. fEron, til. Sunny Sou til. J IMMTINtiriMHKU tIKOBBIAW. Itlojrraphlrnl skrtrli op HON. JOHN 11. JAMES. Under the above caption our city cotemporary (April 7th) publishes In nonpareil type a biography of Mr. J no. H. James, banker of Atlanta, Oa. The natural inference is that said bi ography must be an advertisement. Who pays for tills advertisement, and for what puri>osc was it inserted? We have a dim recollection that some one has said, “Modesty, where is thy blush?” _ ■ _ Gen. Jno. A. Wharton, wiio oom muded the Hth Texas cavalry and a brigade under Wheeler, was killed in Houston, Texas, early in the year 1865, by Maj. Baylor. A friend hands us the above. Wo wore mistaken In thinking that the individual roftsrred to a few days ago as an official in New Orleans, was the Oen. Wharton of cavulry fame. l ari Sehiir/. He has made no impression on the laws and Government of the country. Look in the records of nets done and things changed or established since tie has been in public lifo, and do you find his name. His faculty is critical and in disquisition; but take, for ex ample, such a mun as Edmunds, of Vermont. His work is on every double page of our post-bellum legislation. Thera it stands, and such men are the Senators who are remembered. 1 don’t know what you think about it, but to my mind that Edmunds Is the üblost Senator of them all. Cockling is regarded high by some, but his faculty is a good deal like Sehurz’s. That man who is thinking out some good, or altering something vexa tious, or moulding the laws which mould tho times, is the real type of the Senator, not tho dialectician.- - [Opinion of Vice-President Wilson. In spite of the views of Hon. Henry Wilson, as above expressed, we ad here to tho opinion that Mr. Hchurz was the greatest man in the last U. H. Senate. He combines in an eminent degree the scholar and the statesman tried in the school that makes men I heroes. He Is a man whose individ uality has been stamped upon two continents. He Is not only the flnpst type of our Teutonic population, but he possesses a mind of the most com prehensive capacity. A materialist he may be, but he is none the less a patriot. He needs no mere local rep utation. Asa politician, though a Republican, he is above the petty malice that seems to animate ids hyena-like rival, Mr. Edmunds, of Vermont. Wo honor Mr. Hchurz for ills great mind and patriotic efforts to preserve constitutional liberty, and we respect, him for his integrity of character. We wish ho could be a Senator during the remainder of his life. Being a foreigner, ho is ineligi ble for tho Presidency, and could not, therefore, be induced to stultify him self, as Mr. Blaine seems bent on do ing. The Wild loud Tax—A IliiKr Nprrulu- Hon on Fool. The Macon Telegraph learns from a noted land agent that the land agents are forming companies and combina tions to nttend the sales in tho several counties, and purchase, perhaps for a few mills per acre, all the. most valu able and available portions of the timber land which is included in these wild districts. Having done this, before the expiration of the year under which they can be reclaimed, whole forests will be levelled to the eurth and denuded of their only val uable product. Of eourso the owners will not then desire to repurchase their possessions, nnd ever after, as they are valueless for agricultural purposes, the State must lose all tax able income from them. Again, in the mountain regions, in proximity to the mineral lauds, the work of cut ting down tho oak timber merelv to secure the bark, which commands a high price for tanning purposes, lias already commenced, and tiie im mense tracts of wild lands which lie on the sides and summits of the hills will soon be stripped of their growth. Asa result, tho mUioriU ores in that section can never be doVelo]>od save in the neighborhood of coal Helds. Of all the evils bequeathed to us by tho war, that of monopolies is the worst. The only advantage that Georgia possesses over her less fortu nate sister States is that of her min eral wealth ami wealth of timber. Cut down the forests, and you will cause drouths to curse tho soil. It is for this reason that the l’rairle States In tho West foster so highly all enter prises looking towards tho planting of forests. It is the greatest question 1 in the agricultural economy of that IMirt of the Union. Again, in the mineral districts it is wise for a fur nace company for the manufacture of iron to own twice as much woodland as will be needed for fuel for twenty years, lu order that the new growth shall be suitable for use when tho old trees are all cut down. Tho develop ment of tho iron product of Georgia is more necessary than that of the leather crop. Germany, with a population of -t-J,- 000,000 souls, graduated 800 physicians last year, rejecting 108 applicants. The record of the United States, with its 40,000,000 population, for the same year, is 3,000 graduates, aud few, if any, rejections. Is it strange that the medical profession is overcrowded in this country ? As the Chicago Tribune says of the Civil Bights bill; We fear that medi cal diplomas from the colleges in the United States are “not worth the parchment they are written upon.” HIiLAXt. tin: cost or the mows. Under the above euptlon the Cin cinnati JCmpiirrr gives the following facts, which wo condense: The salary of the Queen cost pre cisely the same sum last yenr as Pros dent Grant cost the United States for tho some time. That Is to soy, the revenues derived from tho crown lands, the hulk of which belongs to the Queen, reached the sum of £375,- 000 (nearly $1,875,0tw), whilst the civil list |>ald by tho nation to tho sover eign, in lieu of the income from the crown lands, was $385,000. THE ECONOMY OF THE QUEEN. Like the crown lands, her personal appanage, tho Duchy of Lancaster seems to be growing in a remarkable manner. In 1805 the sum paid over to her use, from this source, was £2ti,- 000. It, now reaches £41,000, making an aecretion in a decade equal to the salary of the Archbishop of Canter bury, the largest paid In England. When the Prince succeeded to it at j his birth, tiie Income was übout £12,- 000 a year net. In 1809, £03,587; in 1871, £73,000. The incrense steadily Increases at tho rate of £3,000 a year. Add to ull these sources of wealth the savings accumulated by the Queen, together with £2o,oooayear bequeath ed to her by tiie eccentric Mr. Neild, nnd the royal fumily of the future will be handsomely provided for without taxing the British tax-payer. What a commentary the above ex hibit makes to the corrupt extrava gance of our “best government the world ever saw.” What a commenta ry upon the Salle law of Spain. It reeulls the adage, “He who governs least governs best.” Contrast this exhibit with the conduct of President Grant, lobbying in his own behalf for the increase of salaries! His prodigal extravagance; his sum mer tours, away from the Capital for months at a time! Trace the natural results: We find in an old paper, tho New' York Tribune, of July 10, ’74, the following: “But it is not to bo sup posed that the railway companies will surrender their jirivileges with out a struggle, and if they cannot beat the commissioners in the courts they will put their money into loeul polities, witli the same result which we saw in New York under the old directory of Erie. The Potter law makes tho ownership of n certain number of the members of the Legis lature as necessary to a railroad com pany as rolling stock.” From the example of tho President arose the "credit MOHIMEH,” and similur en terprises born of legislative bribery. What is bribery, its nature, and eon sequences? If esteemed a necessity, where is its limit? and where tho lim it for such necessity? It has sapped the very foundations of our Govern ment. - ♦ • The Next Governor. All Atlanta correspondent of the Louisville Courier-,Animal winds up a late letter with the following spec ulations on the above subject: Despite its remoteness, there is no difficulty in discerning tho outlines of tiie opposing forces that aro to form the condition of tiie Gubernato rial problem. Personality hore ugain becomes tho pivotal question, save in tiie case of Mr. John H. James, a banker of this city, who champions tho cause of industrial and commer cial reforms, and will make his light for the nomination upon tho platform of “material politics.” Gen. Colquitt, like Gen. Gnrtrell, is a resident of this county, and Atlanta is doubtless the oentreof his strength. Colquitt, was a genuine soldier, and when lie led his men in the “hottest places” that, Leo’s army entered, tho men knew that Colquitt would stay as long as they did. With no dis count of his war record to fear, Col quitt has the advantage of experience acquired in his Congressional service before the war. To these facts, add that ho is a prominent member of u large and influential religious body, and is besides a Granger. (ion. Gartroll’s strength does not manifest Itself with so clear an out line ns that of his competitors. lie served this Congressional district at Washington before tho war, and is well up in the savoir fa ire of politics. His political and military services have made him well known through out the State. like his competitors, General Gartrell is something in ad- Vnnco of tiie meridian of life. I Col. Thomas Hardeman, of Bibb, | commands a strong and well orgnu- I ized low-country support. His home is in Macon, in the center of the State, from which powerful influences have latterally radiated in an amazing manner, proving equal to the task of capturing the organization of both branches of tiie Legislature at tiie late session. Hardeman was a Con federate officer, and has been chair man of the State Committee, a posi tion of great advantage to a politi cian looking to the Governorship. Ho is a speaker of reputation, and has nffable manners. An unknown quantity in tho Guber natorial issue is tiie strength of Gov. Smith, should lie desire re-election, and a question giving no end of trou ble to the various aspirants is the Governor’s wish in the mutter. A capital Governor, ho is popular, and retains the able advisers who have helped him judiciously on tiie road to fame. It lias been hinted that the Governor views tiie Federal Senate i as the goal of a laudable ambition, | and that lie would not uncondition ally refuse to be Senator Norwood's successor. . • llmililr Taxation 1 iguat-44’hat 1* Property? Moreover, tiie law should affix a distinct definition to t he word proper til. Property means value actual, tangible value that lias location, form aud essence. It must be a real pres ence, such ns land, houses, horses, cattle, plows, carts, wagons, mines, manufactories, merchandise, silver and gold, plate, jewelry, and all pos itive and marketable products. These or their accredited representatives, only should be taxed, and not both prtvperty and symbol. ! Here is a case in point: A farmer , from ono of t iie lower counties who had given his note nnd crop lien to a Macon merchant for advances to en able him to make his crop, begged off from t he payment when due, arid ask ed an extension of time. This was granted for three years, and all interest remitted upon the note. The amount was s2sn. Recently, tiie holder of tho note be ing greatly in need of money, pro posed to take anew obligation for tico bales of cotton, or $l5O, payable next fall, from the creditor lie’ had accommodated and supported with his own means. This was to be in full settlement of the obligation. His answer was a notice in bankruptcy, though he was the largoHt creditor, i and nad dealt, thus gently in the : premises. Now, whence the justice of requir ing taxation uponsuch a note, though It was apparently fully secured by mortgage lien ? We repent property—real property should alone bo subject to taxation, and not Its mythical representative. —Telegraph and Messenger. Correspondence Now York World. \cw Orleans In tfPJS Tlic M. Loul* lle liuliliean .Inxwrrfrt. ] WHAT THE CRESCENT CITY HAS BECOME. New Orleans, March 2!).— Uptothe day of tho adjournment of Congress the people of Louisiana clung to a hope that something would bo done to alleviate their present sufferings. They hoped against hope that public opinion would force u recognition of their rights. But the passage by the Benute of a resolution indorsing the President’s course has east tiie labor ing classes into a pit of gloom. A long and dull summer is looming up before them, and already their little ones are crying for bread. But there is no work to bo done, and I do not } exaggerate when 1 state that the future of New Orleans portends of danger. The laborer and mechanic cannot support their families; the city has abandoned work on tiie streets; there are but two new houses building within the city limits, ami the cotton crop is mostly in, so that there is no field in winch they can seek for employment. There is to be a moeting of mechanics and arti sans on Monday evening next, and from the temper of the leaders of the movement I fear that if speedy re lief is not afforded, Now Orleans, for the first time In her existence, may have a bread riot. The contrast be tween the social and political eon ditition of Louisiana and the state of nature is most striking. Spring bus qiiened with Its wealth of verdure. The air is heavy with the perfume of t.ho orange blossom aud the rose; tho trees are clad in tiie brightest green, and away from tiie heart of the city, where the stillness of dentil is not broken by the clatter of drays and carts, myriads of mocking-birds hold high carnival, gladdening the ear witli their beautiful song. Hut in the centreofthis Eden,surrounded by a smilling nature, move and surge a restless mass of humanity, driven to desperation by t he necessities, und as far as X can see there is no way in which they can obtain relief. In the past of New Orleans her working classes were quiet, sober and indus trious; they hud ample employment, arid it was a rare sight to meet on Irish or German mechanic or laborer who did not own his house and lot. Living was always cheap hero: witli prairies of Texas oiien to us, meat was to be hod in abundance, and vegeta bles of the most delicious kind, such as potatoes, peas, beans, artichokes, corn (for table use,) tomatoes, etc., were raised without any further cul tivation than the care required by the different plants in their first growth. But. all this has been chang ed. These little homes where the poor man lived in comparative com fort belong to the past; 51 per cent taxes on an assessment, of too per cent above tiie market value of the property inis forced tiie poor man to sacrifice his little proierty and to seek a home in a pent-up tenement where disease anil want are his con stant. companions. This deplorable state of things is not eonflned to the working classes. It is spreading like a cancerous sore over the face of society. The circle is i Increasing each day. Families who once enjoyedevery luxury that wealth could buy find their means swallowed up by tho exorbitant demands of the Government, and their prospects for advancement in life or even the hope of an amelioration of their cod dition utterly blasted by the still in creasing political demoralization of the State. The enormous destruction of property during the war and tiie material distress suffered by tiie peo ple did not affect them nearly so deeply as the slow, remorseless dry rot caused by the outrageous Govern ment foisted upon the people hv Grant. lam almost afraid to men tion the number of suicides that have oocured hero within tiie past few ; months. Men of eminent respeeta i bility have sought release from their | daily increasing troubles in self j destruction. There lias hardly pass ! i>d a day forsome time that the com munity has not been shocked to hear I of the suicide of some well-known j citizen. Meat is selling at 25 and 30 cents a i pound ; vegetables are equally high. The first is beyond tiie reach of the poor, because a single company or ganized by Radical legislators nave the monoply of killing cattle. Meat not slaughtered at the pens of this company cannot be sold in tho city | limits, lienee tho citizen is forced to pay whatever those |>eople choose to ! ask, or lie must do without meat. I As for vegetables, New Orleans has always been supplied by gardens located in tiie rear of the city, hut these have been destroyed by high water, the result of imperfect drain age and the condition of tho river, which is free to flow upon many por tions of the State, as the levees are in a deplorable condition. The drain age contract is in the hands of tho Radicals, who collect the drainage tax with great regularit y and prompt ness, though they, as yet, have failed to dredge tho canals or do any part of tiie work so necessary to protect the cits from tho encroachments of “back water.” t ' * ■*" ’ Huiklmuiii' imitation from Mu- llmi. l. T. Helmin' to the State. Yesterday morning the Hon. A. T. Melntire, of Thomasville, donated to the State of Georgia tiie handsome ; sum of $4,030 80. Tills amount was j paid into the Treasury in cash, and Mr. Melntire received a receipt in full j therefor. Mr. Melntire was amem- I her of tile 42d Congress, and as such | participated in the benefits of that ; famous act known as tiie “back sala ■ ry grub.” He drew Ids share, amount- I ing to $3,030 80, and has donated it to i the State of Georgia. Mr. Melntire | gave no reason for this unexpected ; donation, that wo are aware of, but i perhaps he was trying to place his money where it would do the most good. If such was his object he suc ceeded admirably, and the people of the State will ever remember him i with gratitude. —Constitution, Vh. \ [Send him back to Congress. We . do not forget his manly effort with j regard to the cotton tax bill. He is j opposed to monopolies and corrupt ! cliques.- Ell.] President Grant does a shameless thing wo mean anew one that of appointing to office a crowd of repu diated Congressmen, who meekly did his bidding in support of the Force bill. Fourteen ate already provided for. It is this low and unworthy con ception of office that is the curse of this administration, and from this will its ruin come. The skv has sigus enough to warn an experienced mar iner on tiie political sen : but Grant, enveloped in a cloud of smoke of his own making, and not all front tobac co, is stolid and unmoved. This (iris so far done him good service, but is a sad dependence in the day of storm. [ Boston yens. BIRD TIDED IX GEIUtm. BATHER POOR RNOOURAOEMENT FOR OER- ! t. AN KMIORANTH WIIO PIIOPOSB TO RF.-| TURN TO THEIR NATIVE LAND. Berlin Cf*r. oi tho New York Tribune. Tiie outward bound steamers to America carry few steerage passen gers. Tiie hard times in America ore driving thousands of German emi grants lmek to their native country, und tiie Government reasoning on these two facts, is taking active meas ures in the same direction. One or | the most popular of these is the ar rest and expulsion of Immigration | agents. Another, less coercive, hut more seductive, is announced in a telegram to tho London papers. This ! is roughly doserllted us a scheme to sell, on favorable terms to the emi grating class, largo tracts of the | crown domains thus thrown open to , agricultural and other purposes. But tiie causes which lie at the bottom of I tiie German immigration are more; serious titan any that can bo remedied ! by the sale of a few paltry acres of Itiiul. No Gorman-American should 1 fancy that in flying from the hard times in America he will return to easy times in tiie fatherland, lie wilt no more find the El Dorado here in Germany now than he found it years ago in America. Tiie general cry of dullness in trade is swelled not! a little by the voice of Germany. If wages have been reduced twenty per cent, in America, they have been re duced forty per cent’ here; if there' are hundreds of unemployed men in I New York, there are thousands in Berlin. Last winter this city laid difficulty in finding street laborers at two tlia- j lers per day; this winter art indefinite j number can be had at twenty silbcr groshen, or onc-third the price. If the great manufactories in America make wholesale reductions in wages, those of Germany make wholesale i discharges of hands. Hardly a week passes in which the Tuternationat Oa- \ lette, tiie new American paper here, does not report such events. The reason is that it is simply Impossible,; at any rate of wages, to sustain a large production; and the concerns 1 find it easier, therefore, to close their works. There is, in short, almost an utter prostration of business. The I National Zeitung, makes a frank con fession of tile fact, It admits tin- dis tressing condition of trade in general, j and especially of the drug in the la- 1 bor market; and draws, on the whole, a picture which would not encourage many emigrants to return hither in , search <>f fortune. Moral: That tiie National Zeitang confirms the fact on j which 1 have insisted, and which was indeed clear to all but too patriotic eyes, that the extraordinary business prosperity that followed the war was unnatural and could not, endure. .
