Hcott is contemplating the startingof a system of fast travel between Phil adelphia and Now York, by which trains will run every hour between the two cities, and not occupy more thun an hour and a half in traveling from ono to tho other. *• -—• * Immenhity of the Pork Trade. We copy from tho Weekly Commercial Bulletin, of Chicago, of April 3d, tin following : “Never in tha history of Chicago uh a commercial city, lias the provision trade exhibited such a degree or ac tivity as during the past week. The aggregate value of this product tor the woek reaches the enormous sum of $12,150,000, and exceeding a daily average of $2, 000,000.” -# - lx Austria, tlioy have a law prohib iting schoolmasters marrying with out tho permission of the Govern ment, and among the late official de crees published is the following re fusal of an application: “Consider ing, 1, That tho schoolmaster N., ap plying for permission to marry, is possessed of no private fortune and enjoys an income of only 431 florins per annum, which would not sustain a family; and 2, That his affianced bride has no more than 400 florins of private fortune, the legal license to marry cannot be granted to said schoolmaster.” Wf. saw yesterday an implement worth describing. Tho inventor is one of our young planters, who are determined to save labor by using la bor-saving implements. This imple ment is desiguod for covering cotton. It covers two beds at once instead of one, as does the old fashioned ‘board. ’ It consists of a piece of scantling 4x<; inches and is 10 feet long. To this are fixed two upright pieces, and the whole is drawn by shafts like buggy shafts. Plow-handles are inserted, and (lie driver stands behind the "drag,” and, holding the handles as lie would a plow, guides tiie imple-! ment as desired. Senator Gordon, speaking of the people beyond us, says: They are exceedingly jealous, and naturally so, about tile perpetuation of what they call “the results of the war.” They are afraid to trust the ' Democratic party witli power again, on the solo account that they fear reactionary legislation. 1s tus con vince them that we accept as linal the abolition of slavery ami the fran chise of the negro, and will defend them as such, and we will have done very much towards removing the only obstacle that stands between the Democratic party ami an over whelming National triumph. Senator Gordon says the Republi cans are hopelessly divided, ami adds: I do not think T exaggerate the im portance of this division when I say that fully half of the present Repub lican party are to-day ready to follow Hehurz, Fenton and Hosing, Bryant, k Evurts and Ferry. £ Again, says Gordon : “With a de f stroyod ami helpless South, a pros porous North was an impossibility. It was as impossible os that Chung should have lived after Eng was dead. Hence, from the universal stagnation of all commercial and business matters; from the suspend ed factories, and the starvation of the operatives; from a Union, one-half of which lay helpless in the hands of the thieves, ami the other half of which languished and sickened, canto tiie first symptoms of re volt. from a party which, welded to gether by a hundred victories, had heretofore moved its millions as a man would lead a child.” Wo ask Gen. Gordon, in all sincer ity, if he does not believe that the masses of tiie North have become convinced finally that the stagnation of their commerce, tho suspension of tliolr factories, tiie starvation of their operatives, the ruin, of the South and the march to consolidat ion uml impe rialism have all sprung from the war since the war, through the two uncon stitutional amendments and the “ap propriate legislation” thereunder? Augusta Const. Even if this be the true cause, we do not think that Gen. Gordon is in error. The North, as well as the South, are tired of extremists. Leg islation hardly ever goes backward, and tho amendments referred to, ns bad as they are, are unfaih acsvinpli. To accept them as such, and not en deavor to accomplish impossibilities, seems to the true policy. We know that they are wrong, but we are pow erless. The only way that we can conciliate and win over that better half of the Republican party which follows Sehurz, Fenton, Evarts and j Bryant, is to pursue a moderate course upheld by manly dignity. If tho election of a President is to be decided by Southern votes, it seems to us important that the men who cast that vote shall he moderate men who, like Mr. Stephens, rise above mere partisan considerations. Tin wah n.ttrn i\ irsers. Our telegrams of Saturday inform ed us that there Jr a prospect for a war in Europe. It is state! that Ger many's attitude towards Belgium is threatening, and that Germany, fear ing to offend civilization by direct war on France, will precipitate a con flict with Belgium. Tho same spirit that has consolida ted tlm little Duchies, that has made Posen,Pomerania, Brandonburg, Sile sia, Saxony, Hesse, Electoral, Sleswlg, Holstein, etc., all Prussia Prussia that has swallowed up Hanover also Prussia that now stands at tho head of j tho German Empire, and whose King is now an Emperor—the same i spirit, wo repeat, that induced her to incorporate und amalgamate Alsace and Lorraine, now seeks to grasp Belgium, also. “Wo need frontiers,” say the Prussians, “until we conquer ed those provinces we luid none, and it became necessary to force all our population to become educated and | to make each man an armed soldier. | Self-preservation now requires a rec tification of frontiers.” It, is the old plea: “the end justilies tiie means.” But, if Bismarck attempts it, wo think Belgium will prove his Water loo. A greater than he, “tiie grand | Monarque” Napoleon TANARUS, found his vie- j torious career closed there. Goethe in his grand drama, Oatltde lierliehingen surnarnod the hand of iron, for his ser vices Iri the wars between tiie Elec tors of Brandenburg and Bavaria, at the commencement of tho sixteenth century, deplores a war between Ger man and German, and animates ills j eliivalrie hero with that noble yearn- j lug after a common nationality, which was the real cause of the suc cess of the Germans in the last war with France. Tho Germans consti tute, a people one automony, and ono language, and it is the most intelli gent race in tho world. But tiie Belgi ans are not Germans; they speak tho French language ami are essentially French in their characteristics. It was the boast of Louis Napoleon that the French wore the only people who would battle for an idea. That idea was tho nationalization of peoples. The Italian principalities should be consolidated under one King, and the Iberian peninsular should be ruled by its own Prince. Hence the propo sition to place a German upon the 1 throne of Spain, ignited the flames of 1 war almost instantly, and that gigan tic war between France and all Ger many was the result. But two little countries form the balances which form the equilibrium of Europe. These two countries are Switzerland and Belgium. Their weakness is their strength. Unable to protect them selves, nil Europe will combine to protect them. Each country is an asylum for the oppressed and ban ished ; in each country seiende and letters are peculiarly fostered; and neither country is ever troubled with thoughts of conquest or fears of be ing swallowed up by its more ambi tious neighbors. They are essentially neutral States, and ere Belgium shall be incorporated into Prussia, even the sleeping British lion will east off; tiie dream of [icaee and send his an gry roar across the channel. Eurojxi j will not let Belgium die. • ♦ ‘ Two ImiMirtant ItiifOlnio. The Georgia Railroad lias made two changes that we believe will he gen orally followed, viz: Ist, n reduction in tiie price of passenger, travel; und I 2d, the introduction of second-class | ears. The first reduction will, it is! said, be about 50 per cent, less thun that now charged, while tiie second I change is adopted as a peaceable way to dispose of the vexatious Civil ! Bights hill. “The first-class ear will lie a special j accommodation provided for a eer , tain cluss of passengers, tiie agent to S be the judge of who properly belongs to that class,” says the Atlanta Her ! uhl. \Ye fear that this last clause will I prove inoperative. We believe the | “innovation” can be still further im proved, and tiie whole matter settled satisfactorily by having a third-class cur also. This custom of flfst, second, and third-class cars is universal in Europe, and lias been since the intro j ductlou of railroads. If we are not | mistaken, the Civil Rights hill, until | it is declared to lie unconstitutional, provides that the negro, if tie pays j full price, shall ride in the first class ear. But, if the prices are reduced to second and third-class, making the latter much tiie cheapest, no trouble would ensue, except iu very rare in stances. Not ono negro in a thousand would select either the second or first-class cars if the third-class car was much the cheapest. We venture | to suggest that a further reduction j be made, so as to include third-class ! accommodation; or let the price of i the flrst-elass ear be what it is now, : and the seconil and third-classes be 1 charged according to tho proposed i reduction for the first and second classes. In England, when it was de -1 decided to reduce the cost of travel, : and, if we mistake not, of postage also, it was feared that great sacrifices would ensue. Results proved, however, that both travel and postage increased so rap j idly as to make the measure very profitable. CojiruLsoßv education is being agi j tated in several States, and in New ; York City it has already boon put in ! operation. The Washington chronicle con demns the action of the Secretary of j the Navy in using the Government steamer Dispatch to facilitate the j j prosecution of a voyage of pleasure j by United States Senators to Mexico; j but says that Mr. Robeson granted ■ their application under the impres ’ sion that the public interests would I be thereby subserved, “for, as soon as 1 it was made manifest by the press, and undenied from any quarter, that j the contemplated voyage was one of j pleasure, or on private business, he j ! promptly ordered the Dispatch to re main on the line of its regular cruises on official duty, with the full approval; of the Senators, ex-Senator Chandler j and the privute gentlemen composing ! tho party.” Our own opinion is, that the two terrors—yellow fever and public opinion -caused the Senators to aban don the visltto Mexico on a Govern ment steamer at tho expense of the Government. VKOHUIA M:\YS. —Albany has a severe uttack of tho cornet hand. The Albany Xetrs says the fruit crop in that section is promising. Three counterfeiters were arrest ed at Fort Valley, Ga., on the 7th iust. The prospects for building and making improvements in Albany this spring are good. —TheGovernor lias ordered the sale of the Macon and Brunswick BaUroad on the first Tuesday in June. Mr. J. F.

A gentleman of Augusta says that in forty-one years lie has never known stagnation equal to that now prevailing In that city. The ladies of Augusta have deter mined to place the Confederate Mon ument on Broad street, between Jack son and Mclntosh streets, Instead of at the corner of Broad and Mclntosh streets. —The wheat crop, in the section around Marietta, is looking remark ably fine and healthy, and there is a large area planted. Farmers say tiie yield promises better than usual. Outs in that section are also looking well. Tho next annual convocation of the Most Excellent Grand Royal Arch Chapter of Georgia will be held in tho Masonic Hail, city of Macon, commencing on the 88th inst. The GrandCouneil of Georgia meets same day and place. The editor of the Sandersville Herald, who has been traveling around considerably, says planting operations were very backward wher ever he went, as they are all over the country. The oat crop is very line. 1 The timber market has been so low j tho present season that many have ! lost money or failed to realize any profit from this usually great source of revenue. The Chief of Police of Macon gives nottee that all dogs found loose upon the street on and after Monday next will be dealt with according to the city ordinance--which means tout unless they have badges or muzzles, they will be impounded, and unless redeemed within a reasonable time, will he slain. Tiie tax on dogs is two dollars each, and it ought to he five dollars. Let Columbus act. Dog-’on the dogs! The Marietta Journal says the gold fever is spreading in Acwort-h and vicinity. Any number of persons can be seen with their pockets weighted down with specimens of the much covert yet scarce article gold. Some show beautiful, rich and valua ble specimens, bearing twenty, thirty and forty dwt. of pure gold; others exhibit fair specimens but less valua ble intrinsically, whilst there are oth ers excited over the lioorest kind of rock, such that would require to be salted with a little of the precious tnetal to tie worth testing. Out on Silver creek, about nine j miles from Rome, there are the ruins of an old house. They are on the land of Mr. Sam Chambers and Dr. Dabbs. Recently iu clearing up the rubbish between these walls, some silver ore wus discovered. We are told that, the surface signs indicate a rich silver mine. There is a tradition extant which says that the Indians discovered a very rich silver mine in tiiis part of Georgia. Some persons think this traditional silver mine and the one thought to have been discov ered out on Silver creek, are the one und the same. Any how, here’s hn|>- lng that the supposed silver mine may prove to contain an exhaustless supply of the lucre. ' * ' ii oiuiia wav.. Part of the machinery for the new gas compam at Jacksonville lias arrived. The Monticello Constitution of this week showed no sign of its recent scorching. The only hops that St. Augus tine will have until the next season are those of grasshoppers and fleas. The report that steamers of the New York and Fernandina line had been withdrawn is pronounced in correct. The Pensacola Express complains of hard times and publishes only a half sheet, and yet ten of its twelve columns are tilled with advertise ments. Northerners sojourning in Florida and Louisiana write that it is getting "too hot” for them down there. Ther mometers, at mid-day, mark 80 de grees and upwards in tiie shade. “And yet they are not happy.” sol Til ( AItOI.IVV NEW*. On the 19th of last month a foul crime was committed iu Edgefield county. South Carolina, about eight miles from tho court house. Mrs. Lena Foster was outraged, murdered, | and her clothing spt on lire, while her . husband was at work in a field a short i distance off. A little boy, sent back to the house by his father, found liis j mother lying dead on the floor, with ! her head split open hv a blow from an axe. Suspicion was directed to a one-armed negro, named Lewis Washington, who was arrested a few days since, and taken in charge by a party of citizens. The latter started for Pine House with their prisoner, who soon made a clean breast of the whole affair, stating, however, that liis son, a negro known as "Brown Dick," was the principal actor in the bloody tragedy. A little further on Washington escaped from the party, who thereupon returned to the scene i of the crime, arrested Brown Dick, and returned with him in the direc | tlon of Pine House. He, too, soon managed to escape, and nothing has since Deen seen of either father or son. It is thought that they have i disappeared effectively, and that tiie county wilt not again be troubled with their presence. Lewis Wash ington was arrested in Richmond county, just after the war, on the charge of leiug implicated in the | murder of Mr. Price, at Quaker Springs.

Cauteksvii.i.k, April 0, 1875. i JSditors Constitution: Cotton pro- j during lands are not all of the wealth of Georgia, if too many of her jieoplo ! do think it is the only crop they can i raise. Northwest of tho fine across j the State, formed by the Air-Line and tho Atlanta and West Point Rail- j roads, is a region where mineral; Aveultli is destined in the future to yield to the Blare more net profit j than all the cotton raised at the pres ent time. At the same time tills re-! gion produces large quantities of cot- i ton, at a less cost per pound than any other section of tiie State. One of the most notable counties of North Georgia is the one from which I write —Bartow-possessing, as it does, im- • incuse mineral wealth, thousands of acres of first-class lands, good, pure! water, a good climate anil unsur passed water power. I have been tiie I more forcibly struck witli Hie value of tiiis region by lately looking over . a map of the "geology of Bartow j county by George Little, State Geol ogist/’ and I may add, a work very | creditable to Dr" Little and his As sistants. It should bo engraved and | thousands of copies printed, that the world may see her wealth, and that Georgia is taking a place among Un living active States. From this may we learn that up the valley through which Pettits creek runs, fitly named the Iron Val ley by a gentleman from New York, there are within eighteen milestwelve . beds of iimosite (brown heinilute, j iron ore, several of them of great size, 1 and they are of unusual richness. Near the same valley are also several beds of manganese of the greatest purity, much of which has been ship ped to New York and thence to Eu rope. Couple with this a valley sel dom less than half a mile wide,which is as rich as the famous Etowah bot toms, which is separated only by a narrow ridge on the northeast, from the wondrously fertile valleys of Pine Log and Siicoe, the favorite homes of the Indians and lands which they cul tivated hundreds of years ago. MV are in the habit of talking of the Gen nessee and the .Mohawk, or rattier those of ns who have seen THE GARDEN FARMS on those streams, hut here among us are lands oquallingeitherin richness ! and as well cultivated, for there is no better farmer than Mr. Thompson, who manages the Johnson place, ami Mr. Erwin s never fails to speak for itself. But while this valley is une qualled in the quantity und quality of its mineral wealth, having superb slate as well as iron ore, yet nature has with a lavish baud strewn on other sections tiie king of all metals. Beds of greater or less extent exist every where, while on the Cherokee road, and also near Kingston, are several of very considerable size. A Pittsburg man told me that one hill in the iron valley, if on the Pennsyl vania Railroad, as near as it is to the Western & Atlantic, would Im- worth ’ a.million dollars. He did not think two of the largest furnaces in Pitts burg could exhaust it in two hundred years. In addition to the fertile soil, liar tow has immense forests of excellent timber, and full a hundred water powers which would run each from 1,000 to 2,000 spindles, and on the Et owah near this place enough power easily made available to run full 100,- 000 spindles with the requisite looms. From the western extreme of this ' county, your city is now supplied by ! the Cherokee road with its best lum : her, and Rockmart, just a little ix-- | yond, oouid furnish KI.ATF. FOR THE I SITED STATES ■ for many a year. But there is not a j cotton factory in the county, while she raises and ships off about 12,000 lodes of the staple. The magnificent j jiower on the Etowah rolls and surges as if daring man to stem it; the old Cooiier ruins creak in the fierce winds jot winter, and daily the trains pass ■ by laden with bales seeking spindles and s(ieeuiators in the North. But in j iron slie lias done better. Years ago old Moses Strong erected a furnace near the mouth of Stamp creek, and i later tin- energy and excellent busi ness abilities of Dr. Lewis made a ; practical success of the others. Now the county has three small furnaces jon Stamp creek, each a capacity of three tons per day, hut only one ■ Ward's running; then on the West ern & Atlantic Railroad the Rogers ! furnace, which averaged six tons per j day last blast, not now running; and the Bartow furnaces, both now run ‘ nitig of coke, and jointly making about thirty tons per dav. When all I these are running to their full eapa | city, they can easily make at least I fifty tons of iron per day, which, at an average price of S3O per ton, is j $450,000, or more than two-thirds the \ value of the whole cotton crop raised : in the county. Bartow, too, can claim MOUNTAIN SCENERY of great fceauty and grandeur. The drive up the Etowah from Uartersville to Stamp creek, can hardly bo sur passed anywhere for its wild grandeur. For six miles one skirts along the narrow road, the towering cliffs on i one hand and the foaming river on | the other, and as lie. climbs some j high point, a wilderness of mountains j to the east, while to the setting suii ! stretches out far in the distance that ; valley of such wonderful fertility, ! that some past race should have forti fied it with stui-ndous earthworks. I Now all is rich in the glowing green of bursting spring, with here and ■ there the creamy white of the pear I blossom, the snow of the plum, or tiie I rich pink of the peach. My prosaic hand and head fail, in describing the beauty of this scene, and picture to me the beetling crags and wildly rushing waters, the tow ering chimneys and huge old Avails | of stone, once the busy scene of in dustry, to the poetic mind may easily | be transformed into the ruins of some old feudal cast le where portcullis was dropped and drawbridge swung for i many a bloody fight, and thus might my [Kiel fauev turn on herself the I banks of the Rhine, but to me, ever with my practical thoughts as tu unutilized spindle power, the past of ! the Etowah is an ever thought fur nishing mystery. its present a thing |of beauty, its future, if Georgians will, a source of great wealth. Near tiiis little city, too, are moun tains of no mean size, one which, from its prominence and peculiar po | sition, has one of the finest views I have ever beheld, almost equaling that of Lookout, near Chattanooga. A citizen of this place lias given it a mime which modesty forbids me to proclaim; hut I may, nevertheless, urge every visitor to tiiis place to view | the sunset from its top, especially as a good carriage road exists to near j the summit. It looks over more cul tivated land than any point in any mountainous region that I have ever j seen in a very extended travel. The ! view is especially fine ms the trains ! are coming and going, but that hour is unfortunately too warm for a sum mer trip. Higher up the iron valley is tho Pine Log mountain of great height, hut it is a mass of spurs and high ridges, and chiefly looking over ; a wilderness of mountains, yet a good carriage road goes to the very sum mit, and a trip there would form a pleasant summer excursion, especial ly if Rowland Springs were taken in the way. This once popular und de lightful place has been refitted and will be opened the coming summer. Many a belle and beau in Georgia’s older time met and mated beneatli the tall and spreading oaks of Row land. H. From the chief manager it 1h ascer tained that tiie Galveston, Harris burg & San Antonio Railroad is stead ily progressing, and will be complet ed and in operation toSeguin by July next, which, we believe, is only twen ty-eight miles from San Antonio. The iron is now on the way to complete i the track to the Guadalupe. The fact j that this road is the only one in the ' State, and, indeed, almost the only' one in the South, whose construction has not been suspended during the financial crisis of tiie past year, re flects no little credit on the men who have had it in charge, und who have surmounted so many difficulties.
