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. Editorial Correapoudenrr. 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.

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.
