The shipments of fertilizers from Charleston have been 3-1,660 tons from September to April Inclusive, against 31,728 for the same time in 1864. The Avjwokil— I The man who shot Booth anil avenged Lincoln, Boston Corbett, is living in obscurity. He is a maker of tiles and a preacher of the Gospel. Gov. Tildes, who is trying to re form himself into the Whip; House, now threatens to reform the munici pal governments of the Ktitte of New York. Two United States Judges in Nortii Carolina iiavo pronounced the Civil Rights bill unconstitutional. The thing will be completely riddled if matters go on tills way. ♦ The Secretary of War lias issued an order requiring soldiers to wear the new trowel bayonet in their scab bards. Tho “trowel” is said to be a very murderous implement. The Southern Claims Commission will continue in session uutil the first of June, a month later than usual. It will he occupied during tills month chiefly in the adjudication of small clalmß held by poor (icoplo who great ly neod the several amounts due them. The willingness of the plaintiff, and the unwillingness of the defendant, to allow Mrs. Tilton to testify in the Tilton-Beoehor trial is, perhaps, the most significant circumstance of tho trial. It can not but huve its effect upon the jury as it has upon the pub lic mind. So, Mr. O. P. Morton has designs on the Presidency. The New York Sun ot Thursday Bays, “letters from Indi anapolis just received at Washington convey the information that Mr. Mor ton avows himself a candidate for President. Ho does not tolerate the third term movement, as even a pos sibility.” The Comptroller of the Currency lms notified tho Secretory of the Treasury that the additional amount of new National bank notes issued since March 29 th last is $1,466,300. The amount previously issued under act of January 14,1875, was $3,469,000; total, $4,935,300. Tliis will call for an additional reduction of $1,173,040 in the outstanding legal tenders. 1 - This 1b Kentucky’s centennial year. One hundred years ago Bichard Hen derson purchased from tho Indians all Kentucky south of Kentucky river. Daniel Boone surveyed tho purchase for him. Boone oomploted tho fort at Boonsborough, in Madison county; his wife und daughters came as the first women to Kentucky, and the first sermon was preached at the Big Spring, in Harrodsburg, Mercer county. Mn. Charles Nordhoff’s latest let ter to the New York Herald concern ing affairs in Louisiana is a strong picture—a clear mirror of Republican government in the South. In tho words of this impartial and able writer, “a more thoroughly central ized government Franco did not have under either Empire.” Louis XIV. said and who could dispute his boast?—“l ani the State.” Kellogg, of Louisiana, might 'have uttered these words with equal truthfulness. Hamlet was never in his own imagi nation more completely a pipe to bo played upon thnn tho people of Lou isiana have been in the hands of a Republican Governor. They have been as day in tiie hands of the potter, and the potter has hern the Governor. reniiaylvuiiln Ku-klux. How different is the proposed set tlement between tho miners and tho owners of the coal regions, than one that would have been proposed un der a similar stato of things at the South. There tho authorities are begging the miners to desist their depredations on private property and human life, while here they would have been labeled Ku-klux, and given a through ticket, by a drum-head court, to Sing-Sing for a term of years. Public Debt. During the mouth of April the pub lic debt was reduced two millions. So the report says. Wo think this is a taking off of the old debt, but tho information does not go far enough to say how much new debt has been crontod. This is probably one of Grant's "unloading” processes. Givo the South more money, and the pub lic debt will become less burdensome, for they will then have the facilities to make money to meet the exacting demands of tho Government. The Sharkey rase. The case of the escaped murderer, Sharkey, promises to give the Gov ernment some trouble before tho stern hand of a United States Marshal lays violent hold of his person. Ho murdered in New York, but escaped to Cuba. His whereabouts were as certained, and the government de tective is trying to get at him. Tho Government, has made no demand for him, for the reason that the United States and Spain have no extradition treaty. Mr. Fish, the American Min ister at Madrid, declines to ask his delivery to the detectives for the above reason, and tho further one, that it would give the Spanish au thorities the right to ask for the many Cubans and Spaniards who are in this country, having fled from cap ital punishment in Spain. scarcity of Mime}’. Hon. W. D. Kelly, member of Con gress, who has bewi traveling through tho South, mode, upon His return, this very sensible and ontlroly true remark: “That his experience from the visit to the commercial cities of the South is that tho financial legis lation of the Forty-third Congress is rapidly driving the South toward in solvency, Is retarding its prosperity, and will prevent oil substantial re construction.” In the remark will be found the unvarnished truth. Independent of tho political aspect of the legislation of the Forty-third Congress and all other Congresses since the war, the financial policy pursued by them lias Indeed and in fact retarded the pros perity and driven our peoplo into bankruptcy. There Is no money at tho South. There is, of course, a nominal sum in the banks, but that cannot be readi ed, by reason of the uncertainty of law and of legislation. There ought to be any quantity of money here. The exports of tho Government to foreign lands are composed of three- j fifths of Southern productions exclu sively. Money commands in the South almost a fabulous, and surely a ruinous, rate of interest. The rea son of this is to be found in the fact tlmt tho commodity called money is scarce, and that by ull niios of politi cal economy tho price of money is regulated by the law of supply and demand. Hundreds of farmers, mer chants and others can give undoubted security in the shape of unencum bered lands, but they cannot realizo money upon land at living rates. In some instances they can borrow the money, but they want it cheap, and at sucli a rate that their investment will bo remunerative. There is money enougli in tho North to suit the great head centres, 1 but the Booth stands in need of it. There is not as much to-day in circu lation as there was ten years ago, while the necessities of the people, made so by the industrial progress of the country, require a greater amount, just as much as tho world is growing more populous each year, and the consequent increase in the demand for provisions and other articles with which to supply the wants of the peo ple. Fifty years ago the United ! States did not consume as much ba con and corn as it does to-day. Why is it that they do not require more money ? Tho policy of tho Govern ment is to work in harmony with tho money centres and allow them to control the people, and thus the ad ministration is to bo sustained. V lllniliimliitfil ImmlKraiil. An “Immigrant” writes as follows: “For the sake of humanity, stop telling of tiie immigrants California is in need of. Two-thirds of those who are here will go back East as soon as they can get money to pay their fare. They cun’t get anything to do hero.” San Francisco Morning Call. Such opinions as the above are not confined to California, but from everywhere in tiie vast West comes the cry of disappointment and chag rin. When the immigrant first lands in Castle Garden, tho allurements of the’NVest are held up to his gaze on every occasion. He Is taught to be lieve that to “go West” is the acme of human greatness, and that there wealth is made in one year that out shines the riches of Golconda. For fear that some poor immigrant might attempt to better his condition by coming South, they are told in glow ing language of tho West, ami in the same breath are prejudiced against the South, tier people and iter insti tutions. But for this Castle Garden swindle and humbug, to-day hun dreds und thousands of Irish, Ger man, Swiss and English immigrants would he living in prosperity among us. Here wo can offer them cheap lands on the most reasonable terms; here we can respect their Caucasian blood, and see them rise in wealth and social relations, without a preju dice. This visionary idea of the “great West” is not confined to the immi grant, but among our own people we I see occasional instances of men who I long for its borders. They foolishly imagine that out there money grows on trees and is to be had for the gathering. Whenever we hear from one that tins gone, hi3 expressed wish is to get enougli money to pay his passage back to Georgia. Those that are fortunate enougli to be able to ret urn, say we are far better off here than in the West. No, if tiie people of Georgia and Alabama will be satisfied to undergo tho same privations at home that they are willing to encounter in the West, they can make more and pros per greater. The great trouble here is that men become disheartened, lose their property, and are unwill ing to regain it by hard labor. If those who are so situated will only make up their minds to leave the cities, go to the rural districts, and there follow the plow, aud practice rigid economy, the time will not be far distant when they can stand fort h independent, and the country at large be far more prosperous. Kissing as a Fine Art.— The Now York Herald, from Mr. Beecher’s own showing, thus summarizes hisoscula tory processes: He has kissed Mrs. Tilton (sisterly!, Mrs. Moulton ('inspi rationally!, Mr. Moulton ('experimen tally), Mr. Oliver Johnson (unwill ingly), Sam Wilkesou ( unavoidably), Mr. Evarts (professionally!, Mr. Sher man (Indignantly), Bessie Turner (fatherly), and Theodore Tilton (re eonciliatory). There are thirty-eight agricultural colleges in this country, employing altogether 389 professors and assist ants, and instructing 3,917 students. —Mrs. Edwin Forrest, now Mrs. Sinclair, makes her homeattheStur tevant hotel. Her kinsman, M. Sod ley, is her usual companion. The Forrest estate lias settled with her for the full arrears of her alimony. I For the Columbus TSmuii.] I<AMIO.It THOUGHT*. No. 1. ; In ordor that a community may bo prosperous and happy it must bo In dustrious, frugal, sober, moral and punctual in paying all debts due from ono to another. Obligations at home must be regarded—must be discharged us well as those abroad. Tills must lie done before one neighbor can have confidence in another. To Insuro prosperity- -to promote and foster the cause of religion .and education—to establish deeply aud firmly a high cstimato of honor, in tegrity and punctuality in the hearts of the people—to cultivate the true spirit of confidence, neighborhood obligations must, and should be per formed according to agreement. If this cannot be done, satisfaction from the debtor to the creditor should be made. A settlement should tie ef fected in some way, and it should bo punctually observed. It should not. be adjudicated by any court of jus tice, but settled according to agree ment. This can be done in cases | where men are willing to do right. Doing and acting right and honora ble will supersede the necessity of any appeal whatever to the exemp tions of bankruptcy and homesteads. In ante-bellum times we had a more solid foundation for credit—a better guarantee for paying debts than we have now. Then, we had a responsi bility and a law by which men could bo forced to pay their debts; but now, that law is very liberally modified, and affords a more' extensive shelter for the debtor. Then, wo were taught to regard our obligations ; but now, we can boast of a little honor no re sponsibility, because tho law lias es tablished exemptions which vitiate tho honor and destroy the responsi- I bility. It is not our purpose to discuss the merits of this law, or its necessity for tho protection of the debtor to the detriment of the creditor. It is a law —ono ol the constituents of our State Constitution, and must remain as it is until changed by the power which established it. But for the present wo will attempt an examination of its effects upon the country, and endeav or to trace them to their natural and j legitimate causes. During tho late war we had several classes of patriots, warriors and statesmen. There were some who boldly and voluntarily went to the “front”and fought valiantly for their homos and firesides, whilst others re mained at home anil speculated upon ! the necessities of the people. The | former, covered with glory, died in | defence of their country, tilling hon orable graves ; tiie latter yet survive, having filled their pockets. Tho one left liis family in want; the other sup ported his by extortion, practiced upon the wives and children of our beloved and heroic soldiers. Those are embalmed In the hearts of their countrymen ; these are the models of excellence, and now control the coun try. These are the men who claim themselves as public benefactors, and who think now that they are worthy to he emulated. The world is com posed of u great many kinds of men, ; and every one has his part in creation to perform. The machinery of gov ernment is wonderfully constructed, and sometimes becomes complicated j and difficult to manage. There are numerous wheels to be turned on tho | principle of “awheel withina wheel.” j This science is very familiar to t hese ] gentlemen, and they can soon adjust j any derangement whatever that may I take place. They are always ready | to do good;?! for their country. At tiie close of this bloody struggle ! we had different kinds of soldiers. | The first class never did own a single foot of land, or a negro; the second | left a good living at home when they | went to the war, and had nothing to | live upon when they returned; the third constitute the immortal Home I Guards, who made fortunes while at j tending to the wants of the soldiers’ | wives and children. They stood by the machine, turned tiie crank, and [made every wheel “run within a (wheel." These benefactors hod a I good living in hand at the surrender, and did not much feel the effects of emancipation. They had a nest egg, and by a fortunate process of incuba tion, they hatched a numerous brood, which to-day is preying upon t he very vitals of the country. They look with admiration upon their ridifieation, and smile with parental fondness | upon their fledgelings. These Home i Guards can now scratch for thern- I selves, and crow with a full and well j stuffed craw. They are fat: and their plumage beautiful and singularly va riegated. They look with disdain upon those who have to scratch fora J living in a destitute barnyard, and j wonder why every man has not suc i cecdod like themselves. They are called sharpers of great financial abil -1 ity, because they accumulated for tunes during and since the war. These gentlemen were sharp in keep ing out of the war. Sharpers in prey ing upon the defenceless at home, and sharpest for praying for a contin uance of the war. When tho war closed, they thought that they were forever ruined. There were then no more widows soldiers’ wives and children to be taken care of—and they really believed themselves non oviparous; that they never could hatch another brood; that they would forever cease to lay, crow and cackle. But they yet live, crow, cackle and strut. We have a use for these men, because they have the public grind stone. They will grind your ax as keeu as a razor, and make you turn while they grind. A sharp ax cuts better than a dull one; but the great difficulty about this grind-stone is, that after turning for t he grinder you are so fatigued that you cannot cut; ; you are too tin*! to do a good day’s ; work. The ax is so keen and sharp, goes so deep into the wood that you I cannot pull it out and make your I licks fast. This stone is the philoso j pher’a stone. It moves the world, grinds the ax, gives employment to j tho poor, aud really Is the only per potual motion on earth. It grinds for us day and night. It nover ecasos to do our grinding. It will revolve forever. Epaminondas. TUr- l.oii(lon HinmlnrU on the Houlli. It will do the hearts of Southerners good to read tho following from the leading Conservative journal of Eng land, the London Standard: “Tho result of their government and legislation during ten years of l>eaco is that, in the opinion not of hot-head Creoles or fauutlc Caroli nians, but of calm Virginian Eng lishmen, tho feeling of the South is more bitter, more resentful to-day than it was this day ten years ago. “No one who remembers the facts can wonder at the result. The pro tracted imprisonment of President Davis, tho wanton indignities aud cruelties inflicted on tho chief of a great people, could not but embitter and exasperate their feelings. The robbery of General Lee's family (for robbery it is by Federal law! was a piece of mean and paltry spite, which would do more harm than graver and more real wrongs. But of public wrongs the worst and gravest there have been enougli to madden uuy j people once accustomed to liberty. i Not only lias equality been given to ! tho negro, but his heel has been set ; on the neck of tile white man. No justice has been obtainable against negro criminals, while negroes, illit erate, ignorant, insolent, have been appointed to magistracies once filled by the foremost gentlemen of tho South. Butlers, camp-followers, elec tioneered, all the tag-rag and bobtail of tiie Radical party have been sent to govern States in which not a hun dred men who can read and write are Radicals. They have grown rich on the plunder of a c'ountry wasted by war and ruined by emancipation. They have encouraged the negro to j idle and steal, so that lands cannot be cultivated; and then have sold these lands to pay the enormous tax es required by their financial extrav agances. They have incurred gigan tic debts, and stolen the entire pro ceeds. And they are upheld in power while doing these tilings, by Federal bayonets, a fact which makes lien oral Grant and his supporters their j accomplices in the fullest sense ol' the word. The South has been first devastated by the war; thou robbed: by uncompensated emancipation and ; by the confiscation of the State debt, and then ruined by the Idleness to I which the negroes were encouraged : and lastly crippled in all her efforts ! to recover herself by a fraudulent administration, a gigantic taxation, and systematic misgovern ment, Stic I is almost as poor to-day as she was in 1865; whereas, if left to herself, she I would long ago have repaired the J ravages of war, and recovered morel than the wealth she possessed in 1860. A more complete censure uri the gov-: ernment and legislation of the last; ten years than her present condition affords it is impossible to imagine. Happily, it would seem that the tide j has turned. Tho Conservative reac- I tion is still in progress, and we may j hope next year for a House of Repre sentatives which will arrest Federal interference, and in two years more for a Senate and a President who will do their best to repuir the crimes and follies of the last ten years. But we shall none of us live to see the traces of those crimes and follies wiped out. Five years of peace and self-govern ment might have effaced the traces of Sherman's savagery and Sheri dan’s havoc; fifty years will not undo tiie work of the "carpet-baggers” and adventurers whom tho Radicals have set over tiie South, or remove the feelings which their rule has en gendered iu the heart of a proud, a free, a self-respecting people, who | have inherited English Ideas and an | English spirit with their English blood.
