Tub Now York Herald gives two
reports of the wreok of the Schiller;
one lu English and one In German.
The Herald Is tho wonder of journal
ism.
The “Molly Muguires” and striking
miners of the Schuylkill region, in
Pennsylvania, aro making frequent
and desperate efforts to throw trains
off tho track and destroy rnilroud
bridges.
The New York Tribune suggests
that tho French feci tliut they have
live milliards of francs invested in
their hostility to Russia. Forcible
hatred that.
Hon. Hugh McCulloch thinks that
France would bo no match for Ger
many in the event of a war. He states
further that during tho most flourish
ing period of the Empiro the French
debt increased os rapidly as the reve
nues, and that no definite statement
has yet boon made of tho present debt
of France.
A TitF.E is known by its fruits. The

The tree has now grown decayed,
and will yield successfully no more.
Corruption has impaired its vitality;
its fruits are rotten.
The report of the Commissioners of
Fisheries for the last, year emphati
cally dispels whatever doubt might
bo cherished on this head. Speaking
statistically, 6,149,000 eggs of tho shad
were token and artificially impreg
nated and 5,020,000 young shad turned
loose in the Hudson. The yield of
the river of mature shad Is 100,000
annually, “and the supply is steadily
increasing.”
The actual production of carpets in
the United States in lb7o amounted
to $22,7GC,900. Assuming that we ac
tually consumed during tho last seven
years only $20, 000,000 wortli of home
made carpets annually, our total con
sumption in seven years would be of
homo-mado carpets $140,000,000 and
of foreign carpets $30,754,621.
The trouble among tho coal miners
*in Pennsylvania Is not yet ended.
Thousands of laboring men are
suffering for bread, and yet they ro
fuso to do the work that must he done
by somebody, sooner *or later. In
trying to securo it few cents addi
tional on daily wages, the miners
huve already lost more than they can
obtain by way of increased wages for
the noxt two years. Another illustra
tion of the bad effects of strikes.
Centennial celebrations are conta
gious. The centennial of tho birth
of Loydcn, the early friend of Scott,
and himself a distinguished poet and
Oriental scholar, will bo celebrated
at Hawick, Scotland, on the Bth of
noxt September. Anew illustrated
centenary edition of his works will
bo published on that day, containing
a portrait of the poet hitherto un
published.
Ku-Kntx. -Now outrages are re
ported in the mining region. An
attempt has been made on (1m rail
road near Pottsvlllo to throw a pas
senger train off the track, and the
railroad telegraph ofilee at Locust
Summit was burned by incendiaries.
Symi>athy for men engaged in such
outrages is a grave mistake, nrnl wo
trust that tho exigencies of Pennsyl
vania local politics wilt not interfere
with prompt arrests, trial and pun
ishment.
Thf. recent earthquake in Italy was
felt from Naples to Nice with more
or less violence. At Siena the church
bolls rang and portions of the facade
of tho theatre fell into the street.
Bologna was also very severely vis
ited, and so were Bimini and Forli,
in which latter city several children
wore killed. Tho oscillations wore
from northeast to southeast, and
were slightly felt at Venice and in
Dalmatia.
i The proposition of Counsellor
Murray, of Griffin, to send the ne
groes to Africa, does not read well
alongside of tho latest report of tho
American colonization society. That
iudefatigable organization could only
Induce twenty-seven negroes to leave
America during tho past year, and it
cost $19,800.25 to land them in Li
beria.
Atlanta does not seem much im
pressed with iter public schools.
Says tho Constitution:
The Aldermanio Board met yester
day afternoon. The board ratified
the appropriations except that of
$40,000 to the public schools, $15,000
for the streets, and $7,000 for relief.
The New Y'ork World styles Eng
land “tho richest, most enlightened
and least assailable of the greater
European States." Tho power or
England is certainly more prominent
on the eve of a general war than at
any other time. The accession of the
Conservative party two years ago,
coupled with the fact that Tory Eng
land will take part in the war if the
integrity of Belgian independence is
disturbed, is the greatest evidence of
the preservation of peace. There
can be no doubt that the actual
rulers of Great Britain have taken
the most effectual steps to convince
both Prince Bismarck and Prince
Gortsehakoff that England will not
permit tho map of tho Continent to
undergo any further modifications
without her consent.
Dry Ki'uillnft.
A friend remarked to us yosterduy,
“Don’t you think tho ‘Agricultural
Bureau’ and ‘Cyclones’ arc mighty
dry subjects V The mass of tho peo
ple don’t care anything about them.”
This was a stunning question; a
cyclonic, hurrloanlc fact—perhaps.
We think better of the average read
er, though, and that tlioso who do
not feel Interested In knowing that
thoy have right in their midst, per
haps, fortunes in the shape of phos
phates, marls or minerals, would not
tuko the trouble to read a papor. Wo
eofifess that we like "dry subjects,”
when by their discussion we can in
form our people of the latent wealth
that, they possess, before sorno
“ring” buys up their claims for a
mere trifio and thus carry northward
all tho money yielded by our, as yet,
undeveloped mineral wealth, before
they have allowed the State Geolo
gist to inform them of the facts. Du
ring the wur, when tho blockade pre
vented Southern cotton from being
shipped to Europe and thus deprived
us of money—tho true sinews of war
as of peace the discovery of petro
leum was made “just in the nick of
time” in Pennsylvania. With the
money received from that mineral
wealth they hired foreigners by tho
hundred thousand. With that mon
ey and tho spoils of war they now
sock to buy our mineral possessions
by bringing at their private expense
geologists and chemists to ascertain
values unknown to its possessors.
Give us dry reading.
A Had Omni.
Three of the Southern States arc
now engaged in tho work of prepar
ing new State constitutions. Arkansas
lias already completed that work.
Other States, recently in rebellion,
contemplate a similar movement. In
view of tho relation which those
States hold to the Federal Union this
step can be contemplated in no other
light than that of a settled determin
ation to oppose or nullify the work of i
the reconstruction policy and involve
tho Central Government in new diffi
culties.
All this is done without regard to
tho provisions or the spirit of tho re
construction measures of Congress,
and in defiance of the Federal Gov
ernment and the popular sentiment;
of the people of the free States, and;
tho worst feature of it is, that it is at- j
tempted with a determination to sue-1
eeed, without regard to consequences.
Again, the Constitution provides
for a permanent school fund; the
amendments transfer that matter to
tho Legislature.- - Washington Chron
icle.
“The popular sentiment of tho peo
ple of the free States” is rapidly con
demning the modus operandi of the
Radicals in their interpretation of the
amendments to the Constitution. The
relations of the Southern States to
the Federal Union are precisely simi
lar to thoso of the Northern, or re
construction is a failure in every re
spect. Tito war is ended—was ended
ten years ago, and fortunately tho
proscriptive class represented by
Morton and the Chronicle— are drift
ing steadily out of harbor without
rudder or compass.

Gen. Babtlett’s munly speech at
Lexington is still bringing forth good
fruit. Tho latest expression or ap
proval is in the form of a long letter
from the ox-Confederato General Fitz
hugh Leo. After declaring his hearty
commendation of all that Gen. Bart
lett said, Gen. Lee continues; “,11181,'
such soldierly sentiments, generously
felt and expressed, will do more in a
brief space of time toward restoring
good feeling, fraternity and fellow
ship between the two sections of a
common country than all the recon
struction eloquence of political parti
sans delivered during those past ten
yours. Your words in reference to
Federal soldiers are equally applica
ble to the Confederate soldiers, for
they too ‘have a prejudice in favor of
peace.’ and I fully agree with you
that ‘between the soldiers of tho two
great sections of our great country
fraternal relations were established
long ago,’ and we feel that if such a
felicitous companionship of sentiment
could linvo found a resting place in
the hearts of other classes of people,
the rehabilitation of the South would
long since have been assured. Its
speedy redemption from poverty and
desolation would have followed, and
once more, as in years ago, tho North
would have had the active co-opera
tion of tho South in working out a
glorious destiny for tho Republic.
Therefore, when we hoar such utter
ances fall from the lips of one who so
bravely bore himself ns a Federal sol
dier, we begin to look forward with
new hope and confidence to tho day
when the American ilag, which now
floats over tho blue and gray, shall in
truth bo emblazoned with the em
blem. ‘Peace on earth, good will to
men.”
I must say how much greater would
bo the service which the press would
render tho country if it would oniv
interfere with tho same energy in the
ease of our revenue laws and our
finances. Under the bad system
which wo have adopted, our merchant
Hag is banished from the main ocean;
iu distant ports, where out- Stars and
Stripes were once a familiar sight,
they are seen no more: our industry
in a thousand branches is smitten
with lethargy, and swoons and dies
in villages where lately it was iu
healthful activity; our circulating
medium is debased, and the world
points at us in scorn as at a nation of
Immense resources, a growing popu
lation, and tho richest gold mines in
the world, yet refusing to perform its
promise to pay its bills of credit. If
tho press of our country had tho nec
essary intelligence, zeal and courage,
it might force Congress to reform the
disgraceful state of things, repair our
disordered finances, and restore our
destroyed commerce.— William Cullen
Bryant's speech at the Chamber of
Commerce , New York.
The Hon. George H. Pendleton is
confident that the Democratic party,
with wisdom in its councils nnd en
ergy iu its action, can carry Ohio by
a iargo majority next fall. He says:
“The financial troubles, the stagna
tion of business, the depression of all
industries, tho extravagance and cor
ruption of the public service, the de
moralization of the Administration,
the personal government of President
Grant, the third term project, the vi
olation of all law in the policy adopt
ed toward the Southern States as a
means thereto; all these have filled
the people with uneasiness, and they
ore anxiously seeking a better state
of things.”
Henry Wilson, of Massachusetts, is
meeting a more cordial reception in
the South than Gordon and Lamar
met in New England a few weeks ago.

CouitoUHcd from Report of the Stiito Geologist. |
MANGANESE.
In Bartow county, Fifth District,;
about four miles northeast from Car- j
tersviile, Mr. Milos G. Dobbins has ;
a lino bed of manganese, of which
there have been shipped about six
hundred tons, at a royalty of $1.50
per ton. Mr. D. has other bods of
manganese in the vicinity. [Mr. D.
took tho übovc pro)>ertles for debt.
They include about 500 acres, and we
think tho debt amounted to about
$5,000. Ho expects to sell $50,000
worth of manganese, at a royalty of
$1.50 per ton, before his mines are
exhausted.— Ed.]
LEAD.
I Galena, or sulphide of lead, in Co
lumn Mountains, in Murray county;
und a little galena has been foujid in
the Baryta, near Allatoona.
GOLD MINES.
In Carroll county. Judge Bonner
owns 1,215 acres. On this property
he lias been digging for thirty-four
years for gold. Tho quartz lias yield
ed $11.40 per ton, while loose earth
has panned two ounces i>er day to tho
hand, or 28 pwts. per bushel. Begin
ning in 1840 with SSOO, he had made
enough in 1860 to purchase the land
and two hundred negroes.
Tho Glade Mines, near Allatoona,
do not appear promising.
Pino Mountain, near Villa Rica,
contains quartz veins which gave a
good yield of lino gold by panning.
A large amount of work has been
done here, with good results.
LIMESTONE.
Avery large surface of Bartow
county contains limestone. Rev. C.
W. Howard’s Lime and Cement quar
ry (hydraulic cement.) The limestone
is burned in two large kilnsadjoining
tho railroad. [Robert Rogers burns
lime extensively at Rogers’ Station.
Some of the farmers burn lime for
use on clover and corn crops, but the
practice lias not yet become general.
Ed.]
Ladd’s limekiln and fertilizer fac
tory, near Pettit ’s creek, two and a
half miles southwest of Cartersviile.
High hill of pure limestone, easily
quarried und near railroad. [Ladd
manufactures a beautiful “alabaster
lime.” Ed.]
MARBLE.
Col. Tate, six miles from Jasper,
in Pickens county, lias an exposure
of fifty feet of excellent quality of
pure white marble; and at another
locality a blue variety of tho same.
Near Van Wort, in Polk county,
is a hill made up entirely of marble;
some of it white and fine-grained,
taking a good polish. [There is said
to be, also, a deposit of soap-stone
hero; also a variegated marble, some
what like the marmo serpentina of;
Italy. Ed.]
slate.
Gentry’s quarry, four miles north
of Van Wert. Tho slate is seventy
five feot thick; the strike is N. 20 deg.
E., and the dip S. 30 deg. E., underlaid
by limestone.
Col. Seaborn Jones, at Roekmart,
lias a very fine quarry, opened in
1858, and another, “the Derrick,”
opened in 1873. Many of the largest
houses in Atlanta are covered with
slate from this quarry, which is being
mined by a few Welshmen. These
Welshmen informed the writer that
they had worked in slate mines in
Wales, Canada and in different States
of tho Union, and had never found
any quarry as easily mined as this
one nor slate more valuable.
[Asan evidence of progress we will
state t hat our citizens imported tho
slate which cover their residences in
Columbus, Ga., from Liverpool, until
recently. Ed.]
Col. J. F. Dover has for many
years worked his quarries near Rock
mart. He states that, tho first slate,
quarried in Georgia was taken in
1857 from lot 923. The slate mined at
these quarries is put on tho oars at
Roekmart for s(> per square of 10x10
feet. Quarriers, splitters and dress
ers get $3.50 a day, and average one
and a halt squares a day. Royalty is
$1 a square in old quarries nnd 50
cents in new ones, when the slate lias
to lie uncovered.
MICA.
There are deposits of Mien of good
quality and in considerable quantity
in Pickens, Heard, Gwinnett, Cobb
and Cherokee counties; also Kaolin
in Cherokee county. In Pickens
county I found it in great quantity
accompanying the mica and quartz
veins.
TOURMALINE.
Near Marietta are fine specimens,
also iu Pickens. Rutile is found in
Carroll and Gilmeroountios; Kyunite j
in Carroll and Pickens counties;
Garnets of largo size in Paulding
county; Graphite in Pickens and
Carroll counties; also in Douglas
county.
COAL.
In Dade county the mines fur
nish fuel for the city of Atlanta
and for the furnaces in upxx>r
Georgia. The following description
will give a good idea of the coal for
mation in Dade county. “Under the
west brow of Lookout Mountain, halt
a mile south of Nickajaek Gap, is a
bank of coal just opened. It lies im- 1
mediately under an immense stratum j
of sandstone, which forms the brow
of the mountain and which here is
perhaps twenty feet high, extending
in thickness from the top of the
mountain to the coal upon which it
rests. There being no slate above
the coal it comes iu immediate con
tact with the sandstone. There is no
septarial iron ore here. The sand
stone and coal dip at an angle of 20 3
to 25°. The coal is underlaid by a
slaty mud. It can be drained 1,000
feet deep. The seam is covered up
with debris from above, and where it
emerges from the cliff is bent down
ward. The seam is four feet thick.” |
j If we are not mistaken most of this
' valuable property has passed from
the hands of Georgians already; and
at what a sacrifice ! We are told that j
it has been sold for ten times as
much as if cost the purchasers just
I after tho war! Owing to tlx® poverty
of our people we fear our greatest
wealth, that of tho minerals, will be
wrested from us ero we dream of its
j value.
TIIEUKY 1)4 THE I VIT,ONE*.
Editor Daily Times: On the second
day of the Teachers’ Convention,
Prof. Wm. Lcßoy Broun, of the State
University, delivered a very Interest
ing lecturo on the theory of cyclones.
Tho writer had tho pleasure of hear
ing this lecture, and intended to ex
pand his notes expressly for the
Times, but was compelled, from cir
cumstances, to give them to tho At
lanta Herald last week. However, as
Columbus is in closo proximity to the
recent tornadoes, it will not be amiss
to write out these notes again and
more fully. Prof. Broun began by
stating what were not the causes of
the cyclones. In the first place, he
said they were not caused by electric
ity, and strongly condemned the
habit, many have of ascribing to elec
tricity what they do not understand.
He said that it was error to ascribe
the cause to the transit, of Venus.
Had Venus been the cause of these
atmospheric disturbances the cyc
lones should iiave occurred in De
cember last, and not in March, for
Venus was several million miles
nearer the earth in December than In
March. But she could not liave
caused them even in December, for
the ferial tides of the moon, the body
closest to the earth, are impercepti
ble, much less would any disturbance
of Venus be noticeable. The true
theory of tho cyclones seemed to be
as follows: The returning current of
the northeast trade winds, as it rose
at the equation, assumed a rotary
motion, and about the time it reached
latitude 32°, by condensation had at
tained a great pressure. The warm
weather of early spring heats the air
nearest the surface of the earth, and
this air, therefore, has a tendency to
rise. If an iron plate having a hole
in the centre be placed over u surface
of water, the weight of the iron will
cause it to sink and the water will
rise at tho jioint of least resistance.
Now tho air above, us before men
tioned, pressing on the rurifled air
near the surface of the earth will act
just as the iron plate, and the air be
low will rise as the water in the ex
periment at the point of least resist
ance. This upward tendency pro
duces a vacuum at the point of great
est pressure, consequently there will
be great disturbance of the surround
ing atmosphere. The air coming in
from all sides to till this vacuum will
produce a rotary motion. Local
causes will give rise to a revolving
column of air of immense velocity
and terrible force. A cubic yard of
air weighs two pounds. In a perfect j
vacuum thirteen thousand feet will
rush every second a hundred thou
sand cubic yards of air, each weigh- j
ing two pounds, rushing into even a
partial vacuum, will cause an over
whelming force. The funnel shape j
of the cyclone cloud is explained by j
the expansion of the air as it rises
from the point of greatest pressure, j
just as the water rising through the
hole in the iron plate will open as it
gets higher. Observations at tho sig
nal bureau discovered by the bnro-!
metic pressure, two very great air j
waves, one just above and the other
just below the storm track. It is rea
sonable to suppose that the strata of
condensed air in the upper regions
fell between these two waves,
and swept down its track, just os a;
storm-ridden vessel follows the
trough of the waves in the sea. The ;
peculiar hue of the cloud is attribu- j
table to the electrical phenomena,
common to all clouds. The Earth,
charged negatively, acts inductively
on the cloud charged positively. This
thoory accounts for the track, origin,
direction, shape, peculiar hue, and
effects of the cyclones, and, as Profes
sor Broun, said: “will have to be ac
cepted, until something better be
found.”
There seems to be a serious
objection to this theory. If it be
true, cyclones should be caused every
year. There were remarkable storms
in the years 1835, 1857, and 18G7, and
the last two years seem to have
experienced unusual storms, but,
from the law of cause and effect, the
the above theory should produce cy
clones every year. It. H. G.
We publish the above very willing
ly, but, we do not aeeejit Professor j
Broun’s theory as infallible. In the
first place, these Hurricanes—(they
aro not properly speaking Cyclones
in proof of whicli we refer, I?. H. G.,
jto the derivation of that word]
—are preceded by hail, and vivid, I
continuous lightning--and these can !
hardly exist without electricity.
Again, they do not seem to have a
rotary motion, but rather a direct,
irresistible current, that sweeps j
away everything in the storm-track.
Wo do not pretend to boa scien
tist, but we believe strongly in what
we see. Neither do we think Mr. Ste
phens first suggested the establish
ment of the Meteorological Bureau,
by which the weather is forecasted.
| That honor belongs to Matthew F.
Maury, the greatest scientist the
| world iias produced in modern times.
The warfare on Judge Kelley is in
creasing in bitterness. He is openly
charged now with having gone over
to the Democracy. Can’t the party
journals see that if they are going to
make a business of kicking every man
who dares to differ from the pet views
of Grantism it will be necessary for
j them to take out a contract soon to
j apply similar chastisement to the
i whole American people? It is a good
! deal more popular now to be kicked
! than to be the kieker. If it goes on
! in this way much longer the man who
jis not kicked will be looked upon
. with suspicion.—AT. F. Tribune.

American Cyclopaedia.
New Revised Edition.
Entirely rewritten by the ablest writer* on every
subject. Printed from new typo, aud Illus
trated with Several Thousand Engravings
and Maps.
The work originally published under the title
of The New American CTCLOPJKdia was com
pleted in IHOO. since which time the wide circula
tion which it has attained iu all parts of the
United States, autl the signal developments which
have taken place in every branch of science, lit
erature and art. have induced the editors and
publishers to submit it to su exact and thorough
revision, and to issue anew edition entitled The
American Cyclopjcdia.
Within the last ten years the progress of dis
covery iu every department ol knowledge has
made anew work of reference an imperative
want.
The movement of political affairs has kept pace
with the discoveries of science, and their fruitful
application to the industrial and useful arts and
the convenience and refinement of social life.
Great wars and consequent revolutions have oc
curred, involving national changes of peculiar
moment. The civil war of our own country,
which was at its height w-hen the last volume ol
the old work appeared, has happily Wen ended,
and anew course of commercial and industrial
activity has been commenced.
Large accessions to our geographical knowl-
I edge have been made by the indefatigable ex
plorers of Africa.
The great political revolutions of the last de
cade, with the natural result of the lapse of time,
have brought into public view a multitude of new
men, whose names are in every one’s mouth, and
of whose lives every one is curious to know the
particulars. Great battles have been fought and
important sieges maintained, of which the de
tails are as yet preserved only in the newspapers
or in the transient publications of the day, but
which ought now to take their place in perma
nent and authentic history.
In preparing the present edition for the press,
it has accordingly been the aim of the editors to
hriug down the information to the latest possi
ble dates, and to furnish an accurate account of
the most recent discoveries in science, of every
fresh production in literature, and of the newest
inventions in the practical arts, as well as to give
a succinct and original record of the progress of
political and historical events.
The work has been begun after long and care
ful preliminary labor, and with the most ample
resources for carrying it on to a successful term
ination.
None of the original stereotype plates have
been used, but every page has been printed on
new type, lonuing iu fact anew cyclopaedia, with
the Ham** plan and compass as its predecessor,
but with a far greater pecuniary expenditure,
aud with such improvements in its composition
as have been suggested by longer experience and
enlarged knowledge.
The illustrations which aro introduced for the
first time iu the present edition have been added
not for the sake of pictorial effect, but to give
greater lucidity and force to the explanations iu
tUe text. They embrace all branches of science
und of natural history, and depict the most
famous and remarkable features of scenery,
architecture and art. as well as the various pro
cesses of mechanics aud manufactures.
Although intended for instruction rather than
embelishment, no pains have been s]>ared to in
sure their artistic excellence; the cost of their
execution is enormous, aud it is believed they
will find a welcome reception as an admirable
feature of the Cyclopaedia, and worthy of its
high character.
This work is sold to Subscribers only, payable
on delivery of each volume. It will be completed
iu sixteen large octavo volumes, each containing
about 800 pages, fully illustrated with several
thousand Wood Engravings, aud with numerous
