Lukian is spoken of by several Western papers ns the next Governor of New York. Thr Gonerul Convention of the Honthern Baptist Church met In Charleston Thursday. A large crowd Is in attendance. Itov. J. H. DoVotlo and Mr. W. O. Tuggle, of LaGrange, are there. Tin: brazen-faced Pinehbaek has been speaking in Mobile. He asserts the claims of his race for credit and respectability on account of the few crimes they commit. This Is impu dence. when in heariug of his voico forty of them were on the street chain-gang for stealing, and the iien itentiarles of all the Southern States overrun with them. Pinch ought to be with them, to make things look liko justice had been done all around. The Mouth oh an Iron Mori. The South is dostined to become the great iron mart of the world. Our mines are being developed, and experience shows that we con suc cessfully compete with other mar kets on account of the profusion of our ore und its superior quality. Alabama ships to Greot Britain pig iron superior to Pennsylvania, and English capitalists predict for us greot success. Iron ore is not con fined to Alabama, but immense mines of rich ore are seen in the mountain ous regions throughout tho South. These hidden treasures, have been buried In the bowels of tlio South, and only since and during the war, when it required energy and enter prise to make an honest living, lias this buried wealth been brought to the surface. The iron, gold, silver and copper ore of the South is bound to make her glorious, and when cap ital ventures in this direction these rich veins of tho Southern body will be opened, only to pour their wealth into tho lap of tho explorer. m-KKlns Forgiveness. Nothing go completely disgusts us as to hear the continual prayer, on tho part of certain Southern men, for forgivonees. Their ory ia a steady ono, and it amounts only to an in sipid boot-licking, that can only bo considered infamous. They beg the North to forgive them, and never think of taking the docided stand that wo have done nothing to be ashamed of. They fail to recollect that we can accept the situation, and be consistent; but, for fear they will not go far enough, they want to apol ogize for their post conduct, und enter a pledge of loyalty for life. Wo wore truly glad to read the letter of Gen. Beauregard. Ho speaks out like a man in every respect. His letter re fers to tho charge that he was in fa vor of raising the black flag. (ten. Karly’s recent letter stands forth tlio equal of Beauregard’s. We are only sorry that some of the Southern sold iers have gone back upon the reed'd of our glorious aiul gallant army. We are not disloyal In the slightest degree; but loyalty does not consist in sacrificing your self-respect and dignity. Tho olive branch of peaoe properly comes from tho victors, and not. from the vanquished. Tho de feated only show tlioir want of self respect by a studied effort to he too loyal all of a sudden. It does not soom becoming in our eyes that,while we are flat on our back, with the heel of the conqueror pressing upon our ueek, wc should show a gushing and enthusiastic love for Him;’ and when ever ho lifts his foot to rest, that we should go into raptures over his great kindness and consideration. Tho South met her fate bravely at Appomattox, Va.; but to-day she is frequently disgraced by some few of her half-way soldiers playing the ob sequious, ami toadying to Northern supremacy aud codllsh aristocracy. Oirnp ftrllllim. What the South most needs, in an agricultural view of the case, Is cheap fertilizers. Tho production Of ('heap commercial fertilizers is a matter of the greatest importance in this coun try, especially when we toko into consideration the immense amount of tons annually consumed. In the Eastern States they do not use commercial fertilizers to any great degree. They are a money making people, and they save their liarn-yard manure for their own use, and sell us, at an exorbitant rate, their prepared fertilizers. As an in stance of what the South is daily loosing, we have only to refer to the fact that, the phosphates made in the name of South Carolina are partly mode from acids brought by England from Spain to convert South Caro lina fertilizers into phosphates. While wo import this acid the Blue Bidge Mountain furnishes the same, which can be had for the money, and at a far less price than it costs to im ]K>rt it. This probably' is the cause of the high price of fertilizers, while by utilizing our own resources we get a bettor article at a eheai>er rate, and give employment to men of our own population. The Southern farmers require a cheaper fertilizer, or they will have to depend upon their own stables. Experience has demon strated it, and the wise ones have learned it, and heeded the lesson. —At Pompeii they recently found a curious rocord. It was scratched on the stucco of a kitchon wall, and has been thus translated : “Lighted the 1 tire, cooked his meals, and swept his house for him 28,000 times to tins day, and he refuses to take me to the cir cus.” Beneath this, in a different hand, is written : “Women nre never satisfied.” I Coliiuitia* as a Wl. olrsnlft Market, A good deal has already keen writ ten on this 6 tibi cot, and the Col umb u a I’moi'el*ute ltavo often bean remindod of tberfaotjgy the constant appear ance upon our streets of agents from our sister cities. It is a lamentable fact that Montgomery, Atlanta and Macon send their agents into our city and sell goods to our merchants at New York prices. Tills is not an idle assertion, but It is a sad and true fact, and the merchants of Columbus, by tliis time, must have realized it as an established and blushing truth. They come among us and sell goods to our retail merchants. Ought not tho city of Columbus to support, a sufficient number of wholesale houses to furn ish our retail dealors adjacent to tho city in everything they desire? Wo think so. It docs not roquiro tlio vast amount of capital that many suppose, but it does require energy, enterprise and push. Columbus is peculiarly situated as a wholesale market. Hho has natural advantages that few cities in tho South possess. On tlio north we have ; a vast expuuse of territory, witli its hundreds of country stores that are | tributary to Columbus and will spend their money here, if good accommo dations are offered them. On the j west is a fertile country, expanding over fifty miles, that, by an effort on the part of the people, could bo in duced to purchase their supplies with us. On the south the finest trading country wo have ever seen abounds. Columbus is their nearest market, and freights to us aro cheaper than to the merchants of tho towns below us. On tho west wo are bounded by a wealthy and thrifty population that have no commercial rnarkot of any note except Columbus. Why not grasp this trade? Why not extend your acquaintance and build up for j Columbus a tremendous wholesale trade that will enure not only to the merchants, but to the general pros perity of tho city? We need in Columbus men of en terprise, who are willing to take ad vantage of tlio situation and win for themselves and the city a fortune. Columbus can no longer afford to stand idle, but must put fortli tier best exertions, or we will soon loose our entire identity as a city. It is true that, a lack of capital ac-1 counts for a great many of our defi ciencies. This is not a fault, but a calamity that must bo regretted. But from our standpoint a great amount of capital is not required, and in the absence of the great wealth of other places, will not en terprising men step to the front and make the venture? In fact, it will not lie a venture, for success is cer tain, when we reflect upon the sur rounding country and truly contem plate Columbus as a wholesale mar ket. Don't forget the river and Flo rida trade in your calculations. We have one or two wholesale houses who are striving to sustain Columbus. Gawley & Lewis are put ting forth their efforts by advertising and sending out drummers, to give Columbus a good name as a whole sale dry goods emporium. Watt & Walker, J. 11. Hamilton and J. ft .T. Kaufman are straining every energy to awaken in the minds of the people the fact that Columbus cun duplicate New York and Western prices in the way of grooerios. We hear that ,T. 8. .Tones and Joseph & Bro. will, after the spring trade, open their houses as wholesale. Wo hope It is true. The retail business of Co lumbus is overdone, and we need just such enterprising men to awaken an Interest in the future of Columbus us a grand wholesale centre. It is unnecessary for us to go into tlio details of tho peculiar attractions of Columbus—her unrivalled water power and her splendid manufacto ries. These in themselves have done more to sustain Columbus than all else combined. We are proud of the Eagle & Phenix Factory. Wo are proud that it belongs to Columbus. They am wholesaling goods from Virginia to California, and wo trust they will soon go into the “enemy’s country” -New England. The Mus cogee Mills, Columbus Factory, and Clegg’s Mills are each doing their part to sustain Columbus. Recently J. Rhodes Browne has entered the manufacturing interest, and from him tlie public expect much. They hope he will build another such or nament to the oityas tho Engle & Phenix Mill. Ho has the energy and capital, and Columbus will bo glad if ho exorcises it. With the natural advantages of Columbus, will not more of our mer chants bocome so infatuated, they will try wholesaling? It will pay them, aud prosper the city; and in a short while they will recognize Co lumbus, not as the dependent of her sister cities, but as tho headquarters of a grand market bounded by wealth aud having as a great feeder South ern Alabama and Florida. An English View.—The London Standard, of the 9th instant, has an editorial article of more than a col umn devoted to the late civil war in this country, which begins with the following tribute to Confederate val or: It is exaotly ten years this morning since the surrender at Appomattox Court-house terminated the splendid defence of Virginia against the most fearful odds with which, within the memory of man, soldierly courage and military genius have ever had to contend, and brought the existence of the Confederate States to a close. Never was a more glorious national history crowded into a few years; never was a more brilliant record in the annals of war than that of the vanquished army. The Standnrdthoa refers to the dis position for reconciliation which pre vailed in both armies at the close of the war, and the malign political in fluences which succeeded, and which have sown seeds of bitterness which it apprehends will not spoil be eradi cated. At flic same time it. regards Conservative triumphs at late elec tions in the United States as indica tive of tile return of u happier era. Letter from riiiutnhiiorhrr. ClssSTa, Ga., May a, 1875. L'lUurs Colonials Turns; Judging that your other readers, liko myself, •especially at this season of tho year, feel an Interest in hearing from the farming operations in the different counties, I deem it not improper to give you n few “dots” from Chnttn- I hooehoo. I shall “plunge at onoe into my subject” by saying that cotton plant j ing is now finished. There is but J little up, and it looks lifeless, though i I hove not heard of any dying as yet. From my own observation and tlio statements of others, Chattahoochee has planted less cotton than any year since the war. There is generally a good stand of corn, and though small for the season, it is looking well. The lute frosts cheeked its growth, i and in some low places killed it out -1 right. Many of our farmers are | plowing over their corn, and seem to j tie taking more pains with it than heretofore. It Is no exaggeration to ! say Chattahoochee has planted more j corn, und prepared the land better, j than she has in any year of "the last decade. Any one who has taken the ! trouble to notice, can readily see that there is less demand for corn this ! year than last; and if we are favored with the “latter rains,” there will be still less next year. The acreage in wheat and oats is decidedly double that of last, year. Outs are looking well; but wheat, owing to the wet spring, is not so good. Planters aro actually realizing the 1 importance of making their farms more nearly self-sustaining. Looking! around over the county one can read ily see the “signs of the times” are changing for the better. Farmers are acting wisely in hiring fewer hands, und are more prudent in furnishing ! supplies. They tmve paid unusual attention to repairing fences und J houses, and raising manures. Their; stock nre generally in better condi tion. I have heard of only a few mules dying this spring. The health of tlio people of tile county, I am glad to say, was never better. This great blessing, Messrs. Editors, to-1 gether with tire* life and energy I see exhibited by our planters, can but : make me feel that the dark and omi nous clouds which have overshad owed us so long, are now growing ' lighter and lighter, until, in a few short years, the last “little riff” will j have been brushed away, and let the bright sunshine of joy and plenty stream down upon our poor homes. The Times comes to us regularly. It is the paper read in this section anil lias many well wishers. May its life be long and prosperous. More occasionally if von like. W. N. A. Ol InlmNt to HtilhlliiK smd Loan A*- Meiatlonx. A Washington special to tho Can- > rU:r-,l<iurn(il says Judge Brown, of the City Court of Baltimore, has rendered i a decision of much interest to the building associations of that city and elsewhere, is, in brief, that when: a building association takes buck its, stock and makes a loan to the full: amount of said stock, and hikes a mortgage to secure the loan, but in stead of paying tho full amount of tho loan makes deductions therefrom, and yet requires interest on tho full j amount stated in the mortgage, and ' in the weekly dues collects more than the legal interest of six per cent, for the period stated in the mortgage, the mortgagor can recover Duck all paid over and above the amount actually loaned to hi an. aud six per cent, in terest.. Tho decision was rendered in t he ease of Ridgeway against the Bal timore Permanent Building and Land Society. Judge Brown said the ques tion was, whether Ridgeway could be considered a member of the society, entitled to share in the profits, or was simply a borrower at a usurious rate of interest. He joined the society to get the loan, and then divesting him self of stock, ho was still compelled to i>ay his weekly dues as a member, in addition to interest on the loan, and the fines that might he imposed on him as a member. Judge Brown held that tlio whole arrangement is a contrivance to give the appearance of legality to loans on mortgages at usurious interest. The case is ap pealed ; but if the above decision shall bo sustained by tho Appellate Court it will close up a good many of these building societies in Maryland, and lead to reorganization in other States having a usury law. I*> Nlitiuiny! Uli dot H,i? There is doubtless such a tiling as excessive promptness in emergencies. Presence of mind and determination are admirablequalitiesin themselves, but it sometimes happens that a de cision made upon the spur of the mo ment is regretted upon a more delib erate survey of the field. This re morse seems to have overtaken lately a worthy Dutchman of Anaka county, Minnesota. The Dutchman was seek ing to reach a town at some distance from Sank Centre, and to accomplish this must drive over the prairie from tho latter town. Ho was unaccus tomed to the road and night overtook him with his vehicle fast in a slough aud no town in sight. He sought the solitary farm house visible and asked permission to stay till morning, the farmer telling the traveler, however, that, it would be necessary fjr him to sleep with the children or with the farmer himself, as their accommoda tions were limited. Quick as light ning, the Dutchman expressed his resolution not to sleep with "bodder atlon ghiltren,” so he slept with the farmer. The rest of the story may be giren in his own language: "Veil, in der mornin’, ven we comes mitder stairs down, 1 see two girls apout seventeen und nineteen years old, und I ask dor old man: ; Pees deni girls die shiltreu yon told me apout?” und he say ’yaw: deni ish mine only shiltreu!’ und I sav to myself, Py shiminy! ish dot so?” DANIEL R.
