Jay Cooke turns up us u leailor In a
movement to foreclose the famous
Northern Pacific. The appointment
of the receiver last week wus In sym
pathy with this movement.
• Mb. Wighok thinks that the great
battle field of the next National cam
paign will be in Ohio. This fact, he
says, is recognized by the party lead
ers at Washington, and great efforts
will be made to carry the election
between this time and November of
next year.
Couuiei. Scott's Mission to Mexico.
A correspondent of the Galveston
New* thinks that his purpose is in
some manner to offset the projects of
the International Railway Company,
by enlisting Interest In the Denver
and Rio Grande Railroad, and that
he also desires to settle some compli
cations In hind titles affecting the
Texas and Pacific road.
In 1872, seven thousand three hun
dred and forty miles of railway woro
constructed; in 1873, three thousand
eight hundred and thirty-three miles;
In 1874, two thousand and twenty-five
miles, all in the United States. In
1875, to dato, only one hundred and
elghty-throo miles, 1874 same period
gave throe hundred and sixty-three,
and 1873 for same five hundred and
thirty-five miles.
Another Tornado.
Hardly had the people of Harris and
Talbot counties begun to repair the
damage done by the last tornado, be
fore another, equally destructive of
property, has come upon thorn. In
deed, this year will form an era iu the
freaks of the elements not soon to be
forgotten. Our advices from Harris
and Talbot show great loss of proper
ty and lives. The damage in Harris
is placed at ten thousand dollars,
which is said to be a low estimute.
The merchants of Columbus and
the city responded handsomely to the
last call upon their generosity, and
we trust they will not be slow to
again open their purse to the needy
and destitute of Harris and Talbot.
These sufferers spent their money
among us, and we hope they will not
bo forgotten In their hour of priva
tion and distress.
The Tbaksfuskw or Blood.- In
oommcnting on tho recent successful
treatment of Gen. Bluir by tho trans
fusion of blood, the New York Her
ald says:
But if the disease is in the blood
as transfusion seems to assume—
what then ? How long will two, four
or six ounces of new blood last a
man ? Two, four or six hours, may
be, and then shall there be anew
transfusion ? And if there is not a
new transfusion, will not the original
incapacity of the system to make
good blood recur and reduce tho man
to the state from which he was raised
by tho stimulus of tho small dose of
healthy vital fluid? Will he not
oven fall below that condition by re
action from his temporary intoxica
tion ?
These questions are precisely what
physicians are trying to solve. In
Italy tho principal remedial agent
for disease generally appears to be
bleeding the patient. To us it seems
as rational (though we do not pre
sume to spouk with uny authority or
knowledge of tho subject) to relieve
a man by giving to his depleted sys
tem a fresh supply of good blood as
to take away from a diseased body a
quantity of bad blood.
Dispatches to tbe Now York World.]
“Mr. John Bright said, in a speech
at Birmingham last night, that It was
ludicrous for the United States to in
vite foreign manufacturers to com
i pete at an exhibition when a protec
tive tariff prevented them from com
peting in American markets.”
“At a meeting of tho town oounoil
of Kidderminster the See rotary of the
Carpet Manufacturers’ Association
stated that tiie carpet manufacturers
generally throughout the Kingdom
ad decided not to send their pro
ducts to tho Philadelphia Exhibition
beeauso of tho existence of tho pro
hibitory tariff, and that a memorial
to this effect would be forwarded to
the British Minister at Washington.”
Mr. Bright’s speech has had the
desired effect, and the Birmingham
manufacturers are opposed to parti
cipation in tho Centennial Exhibition
next. year. Free Trade has made Eng
land tho greatest of commercial pow
ers, and it would benofit tho South
immeasurably. The Protective Tariff
has built up New England at tho ex
pense of the South and the West. It
is like Relief laws in this, that it can
not help one industry without taxing
disproportionately others.
Thebe are platinum mines in the
Black Hills, between the Yellowstone
and Cheyenne rivers. This metal is
worth one hundred and fifteen dol
lars per pound, while silver is only
worth eighteen dollars. “Lo! the poor
Indian!” When tho “best government
the world evor saw” establishes this
claim beyond a doubt, excuses will
not be lacking to persuade them to
punish the Indians for possessing
such riches. Wo see no hope of peace
for the. Indian until he is located in a
land that is not a “land of desire.”
We append the following dispatch
to show the animus of the Govern
ment. even now;
THE EX I* EDITION TO THE BLACK HILLS.
St. Paul, Minn., April 29.—General
Custer is here. He does not expect
to start upon the expedition ordered
by General Sheridan, for the explo
ration of the regions far boyond tho
Black Hills, before the first of June.
A cavalry and infantry force is to
start from Fort Linooln at about that
time. Before the expedition can move
reinforcements must arrive from the
South.
Self-made men are very apt to wor
ship their maker.
Uni. Bartlett In Rlrhmnnrt.
The chivalric speech of Gen. Burt
lett, at Concord, has mot with u re
sponsive sentiment In the hearts of
the Southern people. Wo consider
his speech on that occasion as an ev
idence of the returning desire on the
part of the North toextenda friendly
hand to the South. Gen. Bartlett
will be received as would one of our
own heroes wherever he goos In the
South.
Wo givo elsewhere his speoch to
tho people of Richmond In response
to a serenade given him in honor of
his noblo sentiments expressed at the
Centennial celebration at Concord.
His words then, and upon tho subse
quent occasion at liiohmond, prove
the omnipotence of truth. Madame
de Stool is credited with tho remark,
“human nature is everywhere the
same,” and it is undoubtedly true.
Tho people of the North ure
animated by tho samo sentiments
—so far as tho desire to heal
tho scars of war is concerned—as
characterize tho Southern people.
Tho best part of the Northern ele
ment has no proper representative
among the office-holders in the South
ern States.
Wc see only the selfish, dishonest
and rapacious adventurers who are
not honored at home and come South
merely to gather the spoils of war.
The better class of the Northern and
Western people do not sympathize
with Grantlsm. The great indigna
tion meeting in Now York city, pre
sided over by Mr. Bryant, assembled
to protest against the wrongs heaped
upon prostrate Louisiana. The best
people of New York were there fitly
illustrated. ,
The recent banquet iu New York,
given in honor of the independent
course taken by Carl Sehurz in oppo
sition to the Administration, was par
ticipated in by leading men from all
parties, and was characterized by
moderate political views and great
sympathy for the suffering South.
Our true condition is just becoming
known to the people of tho North and
West at large. The heroic endurance
of Louisiana saved|Louisiana.
The San Francisco Call says: “The
wisdom of restraint is now apparent.
If there had been any appeal to force,
the Conservatives would havo been
ground to powder, without regard to
the justice of their cause. The whole
power of the Federal Government
would havo been directed against
them, und no expostulation would
have boen listened to until they laid
down their arms.”
And Charles Francis Adams re
marked at the Sehurz banquet: "Nev
ertheless, there are also here those
of us in whoso minds this occasion
cannot be divested of a political sig
nificance. We see in it a spontaneous
expression of that deep yearning
which we are confident pervades the
minds of all thinking men througls
out the country, for a better, a purer
political atmosphere than has of lute
prevailed for a higher, a more unsel
fish standard of public men. It is
that strong desire which lias driven
some of us outside of all party lines,
and lias brought us here to-night to
meet Mr. Sehurz, and so for once to
feel at home. For we, alas! are like
him -homeless, political wanderers—
tho cherished inmates of no warm
party fold; and, what is rare, uncom
fortable as the position is usually
thought to be, we strongly fancy it,
and so we propose to remain just
whore we are—individual members of
that rapidly growing political organ
ization known as Independent Vot
ers.”
Gen. Gordon states that Mr. Evarts
is thoroughly impressed with the
dangerous encroachment upon the
rights of the States by tho Central
Government, and wo have the follow
ing from Mr. Evarts himself in refer
ence to Mr. Schurz: "I believe that
when men like you shall prevail in
public counsels who pride indepen
dence and superiority of integrity and
tiie prosperity of the country at lurge,
ut more value than a part, then we
shall bo ourselves honored in having
somewhere at last, somo correspond
ing independence of public opinion,
somo proud illustrations of the cure
for the public interest, somo great de
fenders of the nation's honor.”
Surely “the handwriting appears
upon the wall” and portends tiie
doom of Radicalism. Even the iron
hearted Kelly, of Pennsylvania, re
pents of his sins afror visiting the
stricken South, and confesses that he
was guilty of great wrong in voting
for tho “Force bill.” Public opinion
is rapidly hurling extremists from
power.
HailroadK Developing? Industries.
“All havo seen the effects of rail
roads in our own country in increas
ing productions and exportations. It
seems there is no exception to this
rule in Mexico, for that hitherto tor
pid and Bluggish country lias hail a
now spirit of activity and energy in
fused into it by the completion of its
railroad from tho capital to Vera
Cruz. A correspondent of tiie Ttco
Republics says there has been already
a considerable increase in the pro
ductions along that railway, caused
by the facilities offered for transpor
tation. There has been particularly
a largo augmentation in the produc
tion and exportation of coffee. But
the coffee traffic will be developed
more and more each succeeding year;
for within tho last four years more
than double the number of coffee
trees have been set out, over that
which existed in 1870, in tiie Orizaba
and Cordoba region; nnd as these
trees grow, this feature of increase
will bo more strongly marked. Nor
is the expansion of tho industries of
that country confined to coffee. Ex
portations of jalapa, cochineal, dve
woods and fruits have shown a mark
ed increase. Mexicans who were idle
before are acquiring habits of indus
try and business regularity.”
While we are not in favor of going
backwards, we think there is such
a thing ns too rapid development.
Owing to the results of the war we are
confident that railroads in the South
have neither paid the stockholders nor
benefittod the country. This is owing
solely to the impoverished condition
of tho people, which farces them to
buy grain nnd meat instead of rais-
ing theso necessaries. Wo think that
a State ought either to own all tho
railroads or have no Interest in any.
Tho building of tho Stato Road—tho
Western & Atlantic Road developed
upper Georgia rapidly, but was an
unjust tax upon tho other portions of
the State. Franco leases her rail
roads for ninety-nine years; and it
matters not whether the form of gov
ernment changes or not, it is always
a source of nationul wealth. The
State of Georgia owes a debt to the
people of this section. It should
either aid the North & South Rail
road so as to extend it to the proper
point, or sell the State Road and thus
relieve tho tax-payers.
f.’arl hrliur/.
“Those who did not already know
Mr. Sehurz would have correctly in
ferred from his speech at. the banquet
on Tuesday night that he was a man
of integrity and impracticability,
loftily and gracefully oblivious to all
facts which were In such bad state us
to refuse to square with his policy or
desire. Mr. Schurz’s anticipations
hardly deserve serious consideration ;
the man who is so liable to follow an
erroneous method to a mistaken con
clusion may safely be left to disprove
his own predictions. Ho labored
hard for the Democratic victory of
1872. If there were, when the cam
paign of 1874 began, two points upon
which Mr. Sehurz had taken up a
sound and advanced position, it was
upon the currency and the abuses of
power in the South. If there was one
thing which more than another he
affected to desire, it was the nomina
tion of men in whom principle rose
superior to party prejudice or person- |
al interest and ambition. But inde
pendence makes strange bedfellows.
Mr. Sehurz, who especially desired a
return to .Specie Payments and the
unloosing of Mr. Grant’s grip on the
throat of the South, found himself
co-operating to secure theso with the
Democrat’s wing of the Republican
party, whose cardinal principles were
an illimitable issue of Rag Money.”—
Veil) York World.
“So we to-night honor our friend
and guest, hot, for the possession of
all these qualities that constitute the
attributes of good and manly fellow
ship ; not for the wonderful command
he has shown in respect to a language
that to him is not native; not for the
purity of his character; not for the
scope and grasp of his statesmanship;
although these are all qualities wor
thy of being mentioned and being
praised; but because, not being either
a Puritan or a descendant of the Pu
ritans, he, more than any other man,
at this time and in this country, lias
given to tho sons of the Puritans an
example of noble political independ
ence in making allegiance to political
principle paramount under all cir
cumstances to allegiance and fealty
to political party.”— David A. Wells.
“After dinner tho Chairman, Dr.
Krackowitzer, in his opening speech,
referred to Mr. Sehurz for the parity
and honesty of his political career.
He continued iu a humorous strain
and reminded the guest that if ho had
been faithful to his party he might
have received his reward in the shape
of a foreign mission. They were
glad, however, despite the recent
change in his political status, that ho
still loved to labor for tho welfare of
his adopted country. It was not tlie
irresistible eloquence of Mr. Sehurz,
nor his exalted talents, that were
most admired, but his untiring per
severance in pursuing noble ideals
and his stern refusal to stoop to the
low tricks of demagogues. (“Bra
vo!”)
Mr. Schurz said in reply;
“Gentlemen, I do not think that
tiie pessimists who wail over the
probable fall of American liberty are
justified in their melancholy fore
bodings. The germ of American lib
erty is sound. England was not
ruined by Walpole, and America will
not bo destroyed by eight years of
Grantism. (’“Bravo!”! So long as
we perform our duty well and faith
fully there can bo no fear of such a
result. We, as Germans, owe the
same duties to America as Americans
themselves. lam happy to say, of
all classes of American citizens, the
Germans are the most independent
in the exercise of their political fran
chise. While lam proud to bo an
American, I am doubly proud to be a
German-American. (Applause.!— C.
Schurz.
“This is an unhappy age, an un
worthy condition of things, and the
natural consequence is that each par
ty claims the confidence and support
of the people less on tiie strength of
its own virtues than on tho strength
of the superior vices of the other.” —
C. Schurz.
Messrs. Freygang and Gruner will
present Mr. Schurz with an address
which was adopted at last, night’s
meeting, and which sets forth in Ger
man the efforts of tiie recipient in be
half of humanity at large on two con
tinents, and speaks of his able efforts
as Senator of tiie United States. The
serenade will conclude with tho sing
ing of the German and American pa
triotic songs by the Verein singing
societies.
And yet it is hard for the people at
large to forget that he, a foreigner,
had hardly landed on our shore be
fore he embarked into politics which
resulted in a war that robbed the
South of its bravest, strongest and
best. But bo that recollection oblit
erated say wo, in the face of the
splendid efforts lie has made and
promises to continue to make in or
der to restore prosperity to the coun
try. We echo the words of Mr.
Evarts: “May he have a pleasant
voyage and a safe return.”
The Washington Chronicle says:
Georgia is shipping pig iron to
England, and is justly proud of the
development of this important indus
try. In the same paper from which
this information is gleaned, we notice
that the State is afflicted with a large
number of perverse politicians.
Would it not be well to serve this pig
headed gentry in the same manner
as the iron, and purchase quietness
by exporting them from the country?
—An Indiana Grange has come out
in decided disapproval of the Nation
al Grange resolution asking Congress
to grant aid for the completion of the
Texas Pacific Railway.
—The dullness of the times did not
prevent the Springfield(Mass.! meet
ing of envelope manufacturers last
week from resolving to raise the pri
ces of stationery ten per cent.
—A copy of President Andrew Jack
son’s proclamation on the nullifica
tion act of South Carolina in 1831,
neatly printed on fine heavy silk, was
found recently among a quantity of
old papers in a New Haven junk-shop.
—lt is a curious fact that Mark
Twain’s best book, “Innocents
Abroad,” which has reached a sale of
170,000 copies, was published with
great difficulty. Several publishers
refused to touch it. “Roughing It”
has sold up to 100,000, and the “Gild
ed Age” has stopped short at 50,000
copies.

Jordan's Joyous Julep.
A Specific for Neuralgia.
J HAVE been saying a good deal through the

ever has 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 of it, smd it is apparently of permanent
benefit. Yours, with respect,
MRS. L. I. NORMAN.

Dear Sir—'.laving learned through my friend
R. A. Bacon of your -J. J. J.” preparation for re
lief *rf u. uralgia, and tested it with perfect sue
cess in my own family, in the worst case, too,
that over came under my observation, I now
enclose fifty cents for a second bottle, as I con
sider it tsoo valuable a medicine to be without,
though I have no immediate use for it.
Very truly yours,
JAMES T. TOSH.

Dr. J. L. Jordan: Dear Sir—Your Joyous Julep
for Nciftralgia has been tried in my family, aud
with the most happy result,and I find in it all yon
claim for its virtue. And I unhesitatingly re
commend it to all who are suffering from Neural
gia an something a little remarkable in its cura
tive power. J. D. WORTHY'. i
Columbus, Ga., Dec. 18,1874. j
Dr. J. L. Jordan —Your medicine. Joyous j
Julep, in without an equal for Neuralgia. Having j
been a great sufferer from the pain, and having
tried the prescriptions of many physicians, yet
all proved of no effect until 1 tried four doses [
of your Julep, when I v.as immediately relieved, |
and havo not been troubled since.

I)r. J. L. Jordan —Please send me another bot
tle of your Joyous Julep for a friend. I have
never found anything equal to it for Neuralgia.
Two doses cured me almost instantly, and I can
safely recommend it to do what you say.
Very respectfully, Ac..

Dr. J. L. Jordan, Columbus. Ga.:
Dear Dir—lt affords me pleasure to add my tes
timony to the efficacy of your "Jordan's Joyous
Julep,” in giving instant relief in Neuralgia; and
to all appearance, as effective as instantaneous.
1 was effected daily with Neuralgia, and since
taking a few teaspooufula of your relief, two or
more weeks havo elapsed, and there are no indi
cations of return. I hope that the human fam
ily will receive a benefit commensurate with the |
importance of your discovery, and that your
pecuniary reward will be equal to its well do- j
served merits. Yours, respectfully,
MRS. L. DOZIER. j
