Urant’n Non ■ a Banker.
Grunt ia turnons for providing for
nil of hla kin, und since the lute elec
tions ho ia not forgotten by the fami
lies of late politicians for favors ex
tended in the way of putting a fat
oilieo in tho hands of ex-Cougross
men. These cx-Congrcssmen are not
so by their froc will and consent, but
an overwhelming verdict of the jxso
ple rendered it necessary that they
should rotire.
Freddie Grant, sometimes called
• Colonel” Grant, has about quit the
army, and married and settled down
to the business of banking on the
prosonts his father received during
the eight years of his favoritism. In
that time the emoluments of the
office have netted enough to set Fred
die up in business, and Freddie has
declared himself a banker. Ho joins
Hherman, the son of the Ohio Radi
cal, and henceforth the National
Bank of the United States will be
conducted by Hherman & Grant.
Delano had his son John liartdy to
make bargains and reap benefits; so
we suppose Grant has Ids son Fred
die on the qiii vice, knowing that
when the American people are again
heard from, Mr. U. H. Grant will no
longer be Dictator, und without the
office of President he could not make
a living for himßolf, if he depended
upon his individual honesty and
energy.
■''rraauiilil Wood ns Nrvt Kprnkrr.
Fornando Wood, of Now York, Is
frequently spoken of in connection
with the next Speakership of the
House of Representatives. He was
lately interviewed on the subject by
an enterprising reporter of the Phila
delphia Timex, when he delivered
himself as follows: “While I have
been named for the Speakership, and
am not unmindful of the honorof the
office, I do not expect to bo elected.
I shall probably be beaten because I
will not relinquish my own individu
ality, and will not assume obligations
and traffic for tho place.”
Mr. Wood seems to be very confi
dent of the success of the Democratic
party in the next Presidential elec
tion, for ho says, “Nothing can beat
tho Democracy in 1876.” He Is of the
opinion that the Republican party is
not a prrty of principles, but a pntty
for the war and its spoils.
Ho thinks that Judge David Davis
run by the Democrats for the
Presidency, aud that Hamilton Fish
will bo taken up by the Radicals. Mr.
Wood, we trust, is right in his prog
nostications that the Democracy will
lie triumphant, but wo do not think
Davis will bo our candidate. Hen
dricks or Thurman in preference to
anybody, but for a guarantee, we will
espouse any writable man to bent
his party.
The War {'loud Iu Europe.
From our dispatches and our opin
ion of France, wo believe Uiore will
be ;i war between Franco and Ger
many In a very short time. If Ger
many insist upon her demand made
upon Franco, trouble will be the nat
ural conSoqueaoo. Germany, how
over, is not at the bottom of the mat
ter, but Russia seems to play the
leading part. Germany, in this in
stance, is the tool in tho hands of
Russia, for without Russia’s 00-oper- j
atiou Germany seems to dread tho
step. Germany proposes to make a
demand upon France to surrender
the fort of Belforte, to reduce her
army to the size that Germany shall
insist, and to pay to Germany tho
sum of ten milliards in yearly install
ments.
This Divais a most unreasonable de
mand upon tho jmrt of Germany, and
displays an overbearing policy which
we are sure that Franco will not sub
mit to. Franco has been whipped by
t his Empire, and a greater part, of
(America were glad of it, but Germa
ny will lose her friends and suppor
ters when she attempts to carry out
tills demand. The demand is unjust,
unreasonable, and, we think, intol
erant.
No nation has the right to go for
ward and soy how groat shall be the
standing army of a Republic. France
has tho right, by till rules of interna
tional law, to say what amount of
troops she will sustain, and to deny
the right docs away with national
sovereignty. Impoverished as France
is to-day, we confidently hope sho
will not allow this aggression upon
her vested rights.
(.iovrritors Miulth mid Porter.
For some time there lias been a I
good deal said of the difficulty be
tween Governor Smith, of Georgia,
and Governor Porter, of Tennessee.
Wa are not able to judge, from the ,
lights before us, who is right or wrong.
One tiling we nro satisfied of, how
ever, is that the whole affair is child
ish, and beneath the dignity of men
representing two great States. It is
a seat of “tit for tat” game, which is
unworthy of Governors of sovereign
•Suites, and there cannot be much
right in it, but a good deal of wrong,
as it oOabloe fugitives from either |
State to evade the laws and to go un-;
punished. It seems the difficulty'
arose on account of a requisition from
Governor Smith upon Governor Por
ter fpr oflje A. J. Saunders, late of Sau
dersviile, Ga., who is charged with
stealing the ntonoy received by him
for goods sent to Cnrtersvtlio by Stan-!
ton Bros., of Atlanta, which goods he j
was to sell for Stauton Bros. Saun-!
ders was arrested at Shelbyville,
Tennessee, with a requisition from
Governor Smith. Governor Porter
refused to surrender Saunders he-
cause, h said, that, on a similar oc
casion Governor Smith had rufused
to honor his requisition. This is all
that Is known to duto, although it Is
supposed that the Governors ure
wasting their time corresponding on
the subject. It scams to be a “hold
on” game, and as soon ns the first
one “lots go” we will notice tho faet.
Go on, Governors, and win, but in
the meantime Saunders Is having a
good time, and will probably get, to
Canada before you docide.

C'.utTKitsviLLE, Ga., May (i, 1875.
From the time that you leave Ma
rietta, going northwurd, tho travel
er’s eyos are gladdenod by the suc
cession of wheat and oat Helds and the
mountain rangos of tho soutliermost
spurs of the Blue Kidge chain render
tho lundscai>e picturesque. Wo pass
rapidly the station of Bartow, where
are located the Bartow Iron Works
the most extensive of the pig iron
furnaces in Georgia. It is quite a
village, dotted with cheerful cottages
for the laborers, and the busy move
ment is suggestive of thrift. It is:
gratifying to the oyes of a Georgian j
to see these large manufacturing en
terprises in tlw country. Urban
wealth is dependent upon rural (fe
velopmeut, and the real estate of
cities is linked closely with that in
the country. The soil with its agri
cultural or mineral wealth is tho true j
foundation to a country’s prosperity. !
The growtli of Georgia towns is en- i
tirely disproportions! with that in the
country districts. The negroes gener- ;
ally docking to cities whenever they j
can get occupation enough to keep !
body and soul together. Bar-,
tow and Polk counties will soon j
be dotted with iron furnaces.
Hinte and marble abound from
tho Allatoona hills—famous for
Its desperate conflicts during the war—
to Cartersville, the scenery is roman- 1
tic and charming. The serpentine
windings of the State Road near the j
beautiful Etowah river, enable one
to take a good roup d’ocil of the ming-.
ling bounties of mountain forests, j
fields of grain and cleur running wa
ter, whose surface is near that of its
banks, and is not marred by the high
clay und sand embankments that;
characterize the lower Chattahoohee 1
when they have beeu denuded of all •
trees and plant growth. In the lime
stone valleys of Upper Georgia land ;
is not so liable to gullies and “wash- j
es” that so deface the cotton country. |
A rotation of crops, too, is generally
perceived, and thus the country does
not seem so impoverished. Every
farmer seems to bo raising hogs. But
few sheep or goats are seen us yet,
the people waiting for the time when
our legislators will pass a law pro
tecting sheep from the depredations
of dogs.
Cotton has been planted in this re
gion, but is not yet up. Corn is very
backward, owing to heavy rains and
the six heavy frosts that, came on six
successive days. It is near Cartcrs
villo that one sees for the first time
large fields devoted exclusively to
rod clover and gross crops. It would
delight Rosa Bonheur or Claude Lor
raine’s artistic eyes to see the lino
cattle, many of them short-horns —
browsing knee deep in a luxuriant
clover Held. F. F.
Two brothers, named Gaff, have
established a mammoth hennery in
Colorado, ten miles from Denver. It
covers about four acres, which is laid
out like a village, with streets and
avenues, along which are built long
rows of houses of various designs.
Regular families of hens are unsigned
to these houses, aiul it is found that
they quickly domesticate themselves
without troubling their neighbors.
The population of the village is about
two thousand, divided closely into so
cial cliques of Brahmas, Cochins,
Shanghais and Dorkings, and the
chief products are eggs and spring
chickens. Sundays included, the in
dustrious matrons of the village turn
out from forty to fifty dozens of eggs,
which are sold in Denver for from
thirty to fifty cents a dozen. The
Brothers Gaff express but a single re
gret, and that is that they did not
found their colony fifteen yeuis ago,
when eggs brought five dollars a doz
en, and a spring chicken was worth
a pennyweight of gold dust.
The stock of gold in the world in
IHIM was estimated at $2,740,000,000,
and the production since thent2,Hoo,-
000.0(H), making un aggregate of $5,-
540,000,000. The annual loss by wear
and tear is estimated at about $15,-
000,000, so that about twenty-seven
years’ wastage would amount to $405.-
000,000, leaving $5,135,000,000 as the
stock of gold at present in existence.
These estimates include all the met
al, whether used as coin or for other
purposes. The annual waste, it is
believed, will be greatly increased in
tho future, since three new countries,
Germany, Japan and Holland, have
adopted a gold coinage.

APPLETON S’
American Cyclopaedia.
New Revised Edition.
Entirely rewritten by the ablest writer* on every
object. Printed from new type, and illus
trated with Several Thouaand Engraving*
and Map*.
The work originally published under the title
of The New American Cyclopedia was com
pletedin lHtti, Hluce which time the wide circula
tion which it haa attained in all part* of the
United State*, aud the signaldevelopment* which
have taken place in every branch of science, lit
erature and art. have induced the editor* aud
publi*herH to submit it to an exact and thorough
! reviHion, aud to i**ue anew edition entitled The
American Cyclopedia.
Within the lat ten year* the progress of dis
covery iu every department of knowledge bus
made u new work of reference an imperative
want.
The movement of political affair* ha* kept pace
with the discover!** of science, and their fruitful
application taUHlßdMtfbl ami useful art* aud
the convenience and refinement of social life.
Great w’ar* and consequent revolution* have oc
curred, involving national change* of peculiar
moment. The civil war of our owu country,
which wa* at its height when the la*t volume of
the old work appeared, ha* happily been ended,
and anew course of commercial and industrial
activity ha* been commenced.
Large accessions to our geographical knowl
edge have been made by the indefatigable ex
plorers of Africa.
The great political revolutions of the last de
cade, with the natural re*ult ol the lap*e of time,
have brought into public view a multitude of new
men, whose name* are in every one’s mouth, and
of whose lives every one is curious to know the
partieular*. Great battles have beeu fought aud
important siege* maintained, of which the de
tails are as yet preserved only iu the newspapers
or in the tramiient publications of the day, but
which ought now to take their place in perma
nent aud authentic history.
In preparing the present edition for the press,
it has accordingly been the aim ol the editor* to
tiring down the information to the latest possi
ble date*, aud to furnish an accurate account of
the most recent discoveries iu science, of every
fresh production iu literature, and of the newest
inventions iu the practical art*, as well as to give
a succinct aud original record of the progreMM of
political aud historical event*.
The work ha* been begun after long aud care
ful preliminary labor, and with the wont ample
resources lor carrying it on to a successful term
ination.
None of the original stereotype plate* have
been used, but every page has been printed on
new type, forming iu laet anew Cyclopedia, with
the same plan and compass as its predecessor,
but with a far greater pecuniary expenditure,
and with such improvements iu its composition
as have been suggested by longer experience and
enlarged knowledge.
The illustration* which aro introduced for the
first time in the prescut edition Lave beeu added
not for the sake of pictorial effect, but to give
greater lucidity and force to the explanation* in
the text. They embrace all brauebes of science
aud of natural history, aud depict the most
turnon* aud remarkable feature* ol scenery,
architecture aud art, as well a* the various pro
cesses of mechanics am! manufacture*.
Although intended for instruction rather than
embelishment. no pains have been spared to in
sure their artistic excellence; the cost of their
execution i* enormous, and it is believed they
will find a welcome reception an an admirable
feature of the Cyclopa-dta. and worthy of its
high character.
This work is sold to Subscribers only, payable
on delivery of each volume. It will be completed
in sixteen large octavo volumes, each containing
about 8(8* pages, fully illustrated with several

THE SUN.
DAILY AND WEEKLY FOB 1875.
The approach of the Presidential election gives
uuusual importance to the oveuts aud develop
ments of 1875. We shall endeavor to describe
them fully, faithfully and fearlessly .
THH WEEKLY SUN has now attained a circula
tion of over eighty thousand copies. Its readers
are found in every State and Territory, and its
quality is well known to the public. We shall
not only endeavor to keep it fully up to the old
standard, but to improve and add to its variety
aud power.
THE WEEKLY HUN will continue to be a thor
ough newspaper. All the news of tho day will be
found in it, condensed when unimportant, at
foil length when of moment, and always, we
trust, treated in a clear, interesting and instruct
ive manner.
It is our aim to nuke the Weekly Huu the beat
family newspaper iu tho world. It will be full of
entertaining and appropriate reading of every
sort, but will print nothing t" offend the most
scrupulous and delicate taste. It will always
contain the most interesting stories and ro
l mancea of the day. carefully selected and legibly
; printed.
The Agricultural Department is a prominent
| feature in the Weekly Sun, and its articles Will
j always be found fresh and useful to the farmer.
I The i)amber of men independent in politics is
j increasing, and the Weekly Sun is their paper
; especially. It belougn to no i>arty, and obeys no
i dictation, contending for principle, and for the
election of the best men. It exposes the corrup
| tiou that disgraces the country and threatens the
overthrow of republican institutions. It has no
i tear of knaves, aud seeks no favors from their
I supporters.
| The markets of every kind aud the fashions
1 are regularly reported.
The price of tho WEEKLY STN is one dolitr a
year for a sheet of eight pages, and titty -six cob
übuw. As this barely pays the expenses of paper
and printing, we are not able to make auy dis
count or allow any premium to friends who may
make special efforts to extend its circulation.
Uuuer the new law. which require*) payment of
postage iu advance, one dollar a year, with twenty
cents the coat of prepaid postage added, is the
rate of subscription. It is not necessary to get
up a club in older to have the Weekly Hun At this

cents will get the paper, postpaid for one year.
