This cause does not have the same

A correspondent of the Journal ties
Debuts, in speaking of tho probabil
ity of the .Pope’s taking refuge in
America, adds this statement:
“We must not forget that, the Suint
Siege has taken the precaution to
create a considerable reserve fund,
which would be by no means useless
in the States. This reserve docs not
count hundreds of millions, as some
papers, unused to calculation, are
pleased to duclaro, but it amounts to
over forty millions (£1,000,000,) and
increases almost daily.
The Cincinnati Enquirer thw writes
concerning the financial letters of Mr.
McCulloch to tho New York Tribune:
"The fact can not bo overlooked that
Mr. McCulloch is writing those let
ters for the purpose of destroying the
popular belief In the money of the'
United (States. It was his policy of
contraction that made it possible for
his firm—Jay Cooke & Company—to
precipitate a panic upon the country
in 1873. He is endeavoring to further
contract our currency, to help the
National Banks, and to throw dis
credit upon the lawful money of the
United States.”
The Arkansas papers uro all per
vaded with a cheerful tone in refer
ence to agriculture and trade, and the
Little Rock Qasette says: “Never in
tho history of Arkansas were there
such signs of industry and improve
ment. From every county in the
State wc have tho most cheering nows.
More wheat hits been sown, and looks
in a bettor condition, than ever be
fore known. More new ground has
been put under fence, more now fenc
ing made, more farm improvemetns,
and more industry displayed than
was over witnessed in our State in
any one your previous to this."
The Atlanta Herald reports a con
versation with that fine, old Georgia
gentlemen Maj. Saffold, of Madison,
iu which that sturdy "Republican
states that he alone among all the
Republicans in Georgia did not re
ceive any oftloe or emolument from
tho Government. While this fact
does honor to Maj. Saffold, it is a
striking commentary upon the per
sonnel of the Republican party in
Georgia. He is not strictly accurate
though. Wo do not think that Milos
G. Dobbins ever sought or received
any office or pay front the Govern
ment.
Cardinal McCloskkv.— The New
York Herald has the following notice
of tho only American Cardinal: “Wo
trace the life of Cardinal MeCloskey
through three of its epochs—as a stu
dent of Emmettsburg, Maryland, as
a priest in New York, as a bishop in
Albany. His record ns archbishop Is
well known. All the testimony con
curs in showing that the life of the
Cardinal has boon one of piety, virtuo
and learning; that he has been al
ways a good citizen as well ns a good
Catholic, and that he has given his
best efforts to educate and enlighten
tho people. The lesson of such a life
cannot be lost upon the young men
of this generation."'
—Thomas Whyte, of l’etersburg,

portrait of a venerable negro, under

THE PLANTEOft ABAIX.
Tho Savannah AVuw, in a well
woighod articls, gives our planters
bome valuable suggestions. Tho most
important points arc. that the severe
weather just experienced, together
with the rigors of tho past winter, will
materially reduce the wheat crop and
increase the price charged for it, and
will probably make corn go to two
dollars per bushel, and that short
crops of the cereals will not seriously
affoct the Western farmers. It adds:
“Wo are not at all prejudiced against
planting cotton, but we believe that
common sense itself is opposed to
the planting of all cotton and very
little corn.” It also says: “Tho Geo
rgia farmer who buys corn, flour, hay,
and bacon, without some Providen
tial mis fortune!* the cause, disgraces
the high and noble calling of his cm
ployinent.”
Now, wc cordially endorse all the
praises which our plunters accord to
tho News in its stout efforts to pro
tect the farmers against the cotton
rings, of which the Financial Chroni
cle is tho reputed organ. But wo sub
mit tho question: Does tho News fair
ly appreciate the reasons that impel
planters to act contrary to its advice?
We beg of our cotemporaries to re
alize that our planters constitute a
debtor class, almost without excep
tion, and suggest that, before con
demning them, they point out a mode
by which they can honorably and
wisely let their notes maturing in Oc
tober “go by tho board,” in order to
raise all their needed supplies. Farm
ing In the South generally will not
pay 10 per cent, interest even if no
debt is owed; and we believe the best
thing for all parties would be for otir
Legislature to emulate Brazil, making
a constitutional provision that there
shall be no law for the collection of
dobts made after a certain specified
date, say 1880. This law, however,
not to apply to any debts contracted
previous to the passage of said amend
ment to tiie Constitution.
It is impossible for agriculture to
be conducted according to sound
principles and the natural laws of
husbandry, as long as the farmers
continue to pay 25 i>er cent., or even
12 per cent., for the money needed by
them. When once out of debt they
will raise their own grain.
At the close of tho war our mules
und work stock were worn out, and it
became necessary to buy anew sup
ply. We know of one planter who
has purchased upwards of six hund
red mules since the war, frequently
paying $225 ouch for a dozen at a
time, Tho majority of our people
had no money, their cotton having
been burnt either by Yankees or Con
federates. Plantations had to be
repaired. Gold was high. Money
commanded high rates of interest.
Labor was utterly demoralized. The
planter who borrowed his $5,000 or
SIO,OOO then, has never been able to pay
it. Deluded by the high price of cot
ton, they embarked too extensively
into an untried Held; just as those
capitalists most, noted for their finan
cial success, both before and during
the war -like ox-Governor Brown, for
example invested largely in iron
manufacture shortly before the panic.
Pig iron fell from $62.50 per ton in
Louisville to half that, price. What
was the result? The furnaces were
stopped, and small capitalists were
ruined; but no sane man will say
that, with the lights before them,
these men evinced bad judgment iri
manufacturing iron. It is clear that
if iron made iu Georgia for $25 per
ten can be sold for $62.60 per ton in
Louisville, it is a good business. It
is equally true that if iron made in
Georgia at $25 por ton can not be sold
for tho cost of production, but litis to
bo kept on hand a year, while cash is
being paid out for its manufacture,
unless that manufacture bo stopped,
the ruin of the manufacturers is as
sured, and is merely a question of
time. Now, the iron manufacturer
can stop liis furnace, cease his outlay,
and wait- until the market revives,
und thus Ids loss is but slight. The
merchant, embarrassed by debt,
makes an assignment to his creditors,
and—although many may lose by Ids
non-success, since ho has surrendered
all his property and thuspreserved his
credit and integrity- he commences
business again, aided by the sympa
thies of the community. His silks
and calicoes consume nothing, and
do not become less valuable because
tho merchant has failed. The plan
ter, on the contrary, can neither make
an assignment without losing three
fourths the value of his property, nor
sell his landed estates for it takes
two to make a bargain, and in his
ease, while all would willingly sell,
but few care to buy; nor can lie stop
operations. His mules are feeding
daily, and interest is daily accruing.
The weather furnishes no statistics
by which ho can determine whether
it is best to run on full time, or on
half time, and it is impossible for him
to tell each night how his day-book
balances ids accounts.
If he borrows, he Inis to do so, for
six, ten, and twelve months, for his
only means of paying his debt is
through Ids crop. Now, there is not
one planter in a hundred who does
not know that It is better to raise his
own supplies than to pay from thirty
to seventy-five per cent to the bankers
and grocers. But, If ho plants enough
laud in corn to support his family
and the plantation hands and stock,
he will not be able to pay twenty-five
per cent, of the note due in the fall.
If he does not pay this much, the
parties will not “renew.” If they
conolude to commence a suit and get
a judgment, the merchants won’t
credit him next year, for he will not
be able to pay them in full. If the
merchants refuse to credit him, how
ls he to support his family? It is a
wrong verdict that pronounces a man
a thief, if, in spite of hard labor, poor
diet, and a deprivation (self-imposed)
of the comforts of life to his family,
he fails to meet his engagements
promptly; or a fool, if he does not
bring immediate bankruptcy on him
' self by raising corn enough to do; or
Ia knavo, if ho thinks more of his
family than ho does of his creditors,
; and avails himself of relief laws that
1 he. has tried so long to avoid.

“I consider,” said the coarse but
sagacious I*r. Johnson, “that he who
does not care for his belly cares for
nothing else.”
The Macon Telegraph endorses the
New' York World on the above sub
ject, and adds the most appropriate
article that we have ever read upon
its bearings upon the Southern peo
ple in the cotton growing regions.
Wo are of the opinion that more peo
ple in this country die or live years
of misery occasioned by that Ameri
i can malady, dyspepsia from the
abuse of tho frying pun, than from
any other disease. Most inquests
would bo truly described if they con
tained the words
“died of a frying pah.”
We subjoin a few short extracts
showing tho “gist” of the Telegraph's
argument:
Wo say then it is I rue, that very
rarely can one buy a wholesome joint
of meat. Our best meats could rarely
be sold at all in any good market.
They would bo laughed at. Of the
poultry we may say the same. Every
one who has had the chance for com
parison afforded by even a modicum
of travel needs no amplification on
this subject. Of the imported salted
meats, we get what other places and
countries do, and are therefore driven
to an inordinate and detrimental use
of them.
Then on the back of these supplies,
such as they are, we come to the
rudest cookery known among civi
lized men.
So wc are on the food question, and
it is a very serious one, and things are
getting no better fast. Food sup
plies of home production are improv
ing neither in quantity or quality,
and we most seriously believe that
the health, vigor and mental elastic
ity of tho people are suffering in con
sequence.
VVtnc OrinkiiiK.
It is singular that the same writer
who writes so correctly concerning
“food for the body”- which we have
notieeil elsewhere should express
following sentiment: “We exclude
them (cards) from the family circle
for precisely tho same reason that
our children aro never permitted to
taste wine or ardent spirits.”
Now, we hold that next to the need
ed improvement in our cuisine and
diet comes the necessity for the gen
eral use at the family table of light
claret wines. Children need “a little
wine for the stomach’s sake, "as much
as adults. All adults are benefltted
by this daily beverage, used in mod
eration. No civilized nation, except
the United States, fail to live up to
this truth. It is the only proventi
tive of drunkenness. Drunkenness
is not as general in countries where
all classes drink wine as it is in the
United States. Give us cheap, good
wine.

The Cincinnati Enquirer writes as
follows concerning Southern Recon
struction :
It is evident now, even to the most
.obtuse Republican, that ttie so-called
Congressional policy of reconstruc
tion in the South is a humiliating
failure. The object sought to bo
gained by it was simply partisan.
The good of tiie country was not at
all considered. The Republican idea
of reconstruction was opposed to a
law of nature. It was opposed to
common sense. It was bused upon
the theory that the hand would con
trol the head ; that intelligence could
be kept, in subjection by ignorance,
and wealth was to be ruled by pover
ty. The whites of the South had
nearly every dollar of its property.
They had nearly all its intelligence
und character. Numbers is a great
power, but nevertheless it is suscepti
ble to management, und in the long
run it will be under the influence of
thoso who possess intelligence and
have property interests at stake in
the welfare of society. Thus, in the
State of Georgia, the negro popula
tion is nearly equal to the white, yet,
as a distinct political element against
the latter, it amounts to nothing.

Jordan's Joyous Julep,

(HAVE been saying a good deal through tho

JULEP us a most wonderful NEURALGIA CURE;
but for fear you may exclaim as Shakspearo
when he said “Yon cram these words into mine
ear against the stomach of my sense,” I now sub
mit to you what persons say who have tried my
Neuralgia Julep, with the most complete and
satisfactory result:
Columbus, January IG. 1875.
Mr.Jordan: —l take great pleasure in recoin
mending your Joyous Julep for neuralgia,
has produced a most wonderful relief in one oi
the severest attacks oi neuralgia my daughter
ever lias had. She has been treated lor it by
three skillful physicians, with very little benefit,
and used all the usual remedies with little suc
cess. I can with much confidence hope fur a per
manent cure. It is only two days since we began
the use uf it, ami it is apparently of permanent
benefit. Yours, with respect,
MBS. L. I. NORMAN.

Dear Hir—Having learned through my friend
R. A. Bacon of your “J. J. J." preparation for re
lief of neuralgia, and tested it with perfect suc
cess in my own family, in the worst case, too,
that ever came under my observation, I now
enclose fifty cents for a second bottle, as I con
sider it too valuable a mediciue to be without,
though I have no immediate use for it.

Dr. ./. /.. Jordan: Dear Sir—Your Joyous Julep
fur N' uralgia has been tried in my family, ani
with the most happy result .ami I find in it all you

commend it to all who are suffering from Neural
gia as something a little remarkable in its cura
tive power. J. D. WORTHY.
Columbus. *a.. Dec. 18. 1874.
Dr. J. Jordan— Your medicine, Joyous
Julep, is without an equal fur Neuralgia. Having
been a great sufferer from the pain, and having
tried the prescriptions of many physicians, yet
all proved of no effect until I tried four doses
of your Julep, when I was immediately relieved,
and have not been troubled since.
