The Freeman's Journal ridicules
Dr. MeCosh’s idea of forming a pan-
Presbyterian confederation, and de
clares that any effort to unite two
Presbyterian bodies results in mak
ing three. Disintegration, it adds, is
the very genius of Presbyterianism.
We believe Dr. McCosh admits that
he has found about forty families
bearing the Presbyterian name scat
tered throughout the world, each dis
tinct from its fellows.
Says the San Francisco Call:
Tho new corner stono of tbo South
ern political faith is Government aid
to Internal improvements. They
will unite to sooure appropriations to
improve the waste places of the
South, and by this means restore tho
business interests of that portion of
the cohntry. It is argued, and with
some show of pluusibility, that Gov
ernment aid has hitherto, in tho last
years at least, built up tho waste pla
ces of the North. It built tho Pacilic
Railroad, and thus concentrated com
merce in Northern cities. The South.
being on bad terms with the Federal
Government, did not get its share.
Wo trust there is too much solid
sense In tho Southern leuders to at
tempt any such policy us is herein
outlined. It cannot secure any per
manent results. Tho manifestation
of such a purpose will consolidate
the North into opposition. The old
deadly spirit of sectional jealousy
will bo revivod. Tho assertion some
times mudo that tho South Is incapa
ble of national feeling and national
action will be justified.
Wo like the Call, as our frequent
clippings from it will attest. But
sometimes the most unprejudiced
judges err. Tito Call will pardon tho
statement that wc make, viz.: It nei
ther seems to understand tho extreme
poverty of “tho Bouth,” nor tho mo
tives that chaructcrizo those who so
constantly advocate the policy allu
ded to above. Our people are too
poor to rebuild our waste places.
Our losses aro reckonod by tho thous
and millions from the war and its re
sults. The same reasons advanced
by Stephen A. Douglas, in uid of the
Illinois Central Railroad and kindred
measures which resulted in tho great
city of Chicago and tho development
of that section of country, will hold
equally now with regard to aid ex
tended by tho general Government
to tho South. The revenues of the
Government will be increased by it
and the load of debt lifted from the
people. Georgia has no public lands,
and the construction of the Great
Western Canal will do for her what
tho Illinois Central Railroad did for
Illinois. To aid us will redound to
the national good and will cement
the States of the South to thoso of
tho North and West. Prosperous
California can not appreciate our
condition. All over the South lands
worth before the war fifty dollars per
acre are now selling at from five to
ten dollars per aero, when, in many
cases, tho improvements on these
lands cost -and would now cost dou
ble the amount which a sale of the
whole would bring. And yet millions
of acres aro for sale at these figures
and there are no buyers.
AVe know, for example, of a planta
tion near this city containing 15(H)
acres, and upon whielt is a residence
that cost $25,000 besides all other
plantation improvements. Tho pro
prietor would tako $15,000 for it. We
know of another tract of 1000 acres,
most of which is rich land, and im
provements aro good. This land was
recently assessed at three dollars per
acre! while near by is an inferior
place, owned by a man who is not
forced to celt, which can not be bought
for less Ihnn sls per acre. This in
dicates u deplorablo poverty, but it
also proves that our lands are intrin
sically as valuable as they ever were.
Lot tho general Government do for
tho South what it has done for Cali
fornia by the construction of the
Union Pacific Railroad; what it has
done for the great Westby still larger
grants; what it has done for the East
by the Tariff laws and bounties, and
this “great South” will become what
nature intended it to be: tho very
coffers of tho nation, whose exports
from it will pay off the national debt,
und whose magnanimity towards tho
Soutli will inculcate and perpetuate
that national feeling now so nearly
paralyzed by injustice. If this claim
bo denied then strike from the es
cutcheon “E Pluribus Unum.”

To-day is the Contennial celebra
tion of Mecklenburg. Tho first
declaration of tho independence
of tho Colonics from Great Brit
ain was enunciated thoro “before
organized resistance met organized
power in Massachusetts.” On the
10th of October, 17GG, delegates from
tho different districts of Orange
county, which then comprised a
large section of the Province of
North Carolina, met and passed a
resolution, “That wo pay no more
taxes until we are satisfied that they
are agreeable to law and applied to
the purpose therein mentioned, un
less we eaunot help it or are forced.”
The contest thus began culminated
in tho battle of Alamance on August
16th, 1771.
When tho news from Concord and
Lexington reached Mecklenburg, the
patriotic fervor of the people was so
great that Moeklenburg was styled
the “hornet's nest of the rebellion.”
Delegates met at Charlotte’s town the
19th of May, and on the 20th of May,
1775, the famous declaration of inde
pendence was read from the Court
House by the Herald, Col. Thomas
Polk. This declaration was father
to the one written by Thomas Jeffer
son the following year, and embodied
tfife resolution “no taxation without
representation.”
It is more than suspected that we
are cramming the heads of tho chil
dren of this country at the expense
of thoir physical stamina, and im
proper school house hours.— Atlanta
Herald.
Yes, and it ought to be well known
that tho prevalent plan of cold din
ners, consisting of “biscuit and
ham,” for tender, young children,
and the policy of “keeping them in”
when they fail to recite correctly,
until the darkness prevents their
studying—or pretense of study-is a
signal wrong. Next to this criminal
custom we place the “frying pan” as
twin hygienic evils.
—Albany News: The past week has
been remarkably propitious for the
planting interest in this section, and
tho crops have improved wonderfully.
The light showers that have fallen
here and there have kept the warm
atmosphere it little damp, and the
young cotton and corn have literally
fattened and become healthy and
vigorous.
LETTER lUIUt TVSKEttEE.
CONSTITUTIONAL CON VENTIOX—COURTS -
CROPS —DIVORCES—DEBTS, *C.
Tiibkeoke, Ala., May 18, 1875.
Editors Times: It will go hard, if
tho Alubamian who reads this paper,
does not find in it something that
does not concern him.
Politics are beginning to fire up,
under the call for a State Convention
to “alterato the Constitution. ” The
faultinoss of fundamental luws in the
States, ns well as In the General Gov
ernment, is a matter to be noted; the
consideration of which may, in the
mind of the political scientist, raise
gravo doubts as to the infallibility
theory. So far, the Restoration busi
ness has beon under the direeiion of
empirics. Hereafter, lot us hojie that
the L.L. D.’s may bring about a
change.
There ore any number of courts in
this latitude. The “Oyez!” “Oyez!”
of the crier is heard throughout the
land, and Judges, Chancellors, Pro
bute Judges, N. I’.’s and J. P.’s—to
say nothing of United States Com
missioners, whose authority seems
unlimited, appellate and exclusive
are kept busy expounding the laws.
Crops are looking thrifty, though
somewhat backward. Tho demand
for supplies is not so largo as hereto
fore; so say the merchants; yet the
recording officers are still busy with
liens and mortgages. Under tho com
bined influence of the Grangers, and
necessity, larger grain crops are
planted ; and, under favorable sea
sons, a better prospect lies ahead.
Whether the shortness of the crops
and the scarcity of supplies are con
stituent causes, or whether it is sim
ply the old doctrine of innate depra
vity, it is hard to say; but divorce
eases are becoming frequent. Tito
“man and brother,” and likewise the
“sister,” are now as anxious to loose
the bands of wedlock as they were
aforetime to take out licenses and
“marry like white folks.” In some
eases they bring up and make a ten
der of their “papers” to the Probate
Judge, with anxious appeals to “take
’em back.” A day or two since a case
for assault by a wife against her hus
band in the County Court, developed
tho fact that recently site was press
ing him for “a fifteen dollars to buy
a divorce,” with a promise to forego
any criminal proceeding, if he would
respond. But her ease of black mail
(no charge tor the pun ) wouldn’t
work; him: litre tachrymre. It was a
sad ease; and what complicates mat
ters still more, the lawyers, under
their Fee Bill, we learn, will not take
less than fifty dollars in such cases.
Quere: Is this in contravention of the
Civil Rights bill? Is it not putting
such luxuries out of the reach of the
indigent poor ?
People here, like their friends
throughout the South, are in debt;
but this much can be said in their
beitalf: there is not a man among
them but is willing to pay what he
owes- if somebody will lend him the
money to do it with.
Your paper is growing in favor
here, and with a little effort many
subscribers might be obtained. At
least, that is the opinion of
Yours, Gratis.
The letter published below is from
one of the most influential and high
ly esteemed citizens of Bartow coun
ty. As our only motive in writing
about tile minerals of Georgia, and
our Geological Bureau, istodraw the
attention of people at tho North, as
well as at home, to our true resources,
we esteem all communications
which correct our errors as real fa
vors. Our object is to “tell the truth,
tho whole truth, and nothing but the j
truth:”
Carteksville, May 17, 1875,
Editor Daily limes:
I am indebted to your kindness for
tho Daily Times of the 12th and 13th
iifst., containing editorials of general
interest, und of special interest to the
people of Bartow county. These ed
itorials are suggested by the work of
our accomplished State Geologist,
Dr. Geo. Little, to whom tho people
of the whole State and of tho South
generally, will be under greut and
lasting obligation, if he shall be per
mitted to continue his work to com
pletion. His appointment wue a hap
py selection, and I trust he will be
liberally sustained, not only from the
Treasury of the State, hut by the
best efforts and kindest attention of
our people, among whom and for
whom he labors. Permit me to add
that Dr. Little is aided by excellent
assistants.
Before a great while, I will procure
an article to be written for your pa
per, on the resources, mineral and
agricultural, of Bartow county.
My main purpose in sending this
note is to correct one or two inaccu
racies ns to the ancient history of the
county. I shall not pretend to abso
lute accuracy, but will get nearer
than you have been able to do.
You spoke of the Thomas Furnace
tuow owned by Col. J. It. Brown and
Capt. J. D. Thomas) as "the first
Furnace built in this section” and
add, “wo suppose in the State.” The
mis-information as to the first Fur
naco built in this section, was fur
nished to our Geological Depart
ment, from which you have copied
it, by the enterprise of some of our
people. Your addition thereto,
shows that in the language of one
of your Pettits Creek neighbors, you
did not “coine here first,”
To satisfy myself, and to “vindicate
the truth of history,” allow me to
furnish you with the following infor
mation, which I think will be found
substantially correct.
If incorrect, we will appeal to our
“oldest inhabitants,” now rapidly
passing away.
The first iron making enterprise in
this county and in Cherokee,Georgia,
was not by Moses Stroup, but by his
father, Jacob Stroup. It consisted of
a Forge, and wits put in operation in
1837 or early in 1838. It was located
on Stamp Creek, near the old Fur-
| nace, built by the same man in 1838
or 1839. Tito stack still stands, and
| will soon bo ugain In operation—the
same stuck that was built by Jacob
Stroup. Tho second Furnace was
also built by Jacob Stroup on Alln
toona Creek, the precise dute, I have
not been üble to leurn, but it was
probably in 1842. Jacob Stroup hav
ing sold ids property on Stamp
Creek to his son Moses Stroup.
Moses Stroup operated the old
Furnace for a few years, and Major
Cooper became interested in it; and
from tho time of Major Cooper's con
nection with that property, begins an
era in the iron manufacture and en
terprise in Cherokee, Georgia. Dr.
Lewis is unquestionably entitled to
great credit for tho energy, intelli
gence. and success,with which he em
barked in the manufacture of iron in ;
this county, but in tho language of |
Bob. Guryton, he did not “come |
here first.” Ho built two Furnaces]
on Stamp Creek, one in 184‘J and one ;
in 1800, and operated both of them I
with great success. He carried into j
his business not only energy and in
tellect, but hail capital, and the want
of this last element lias heretofore ;
tramped all of Iron industry. I;
would not tie understood to say it
was the only element wanting, but it
is indispensable to complete success.
When I sat down, I intended to al
lude to some other statements in
your articles, but cannot now. I
know you will appreciate t lie spirit
of this letter, and I therefore write
freely.
We have no news; crop prospects
good. Very truly yours,
J.
The Chicago “Times" makes a neat
reply to the argument of the lately
converted Pennsylvania Kelley, that
all the South needs to make it pros
perous is plenty of paper money. It
says:
More currency is what the pros
trate Soutli wants to set it on its feet
again, savs Mr. Bond-greenback Kel
ley. Well, time was when the Soutli
Imd plenty of currency oceans of it,
in fact. During the last year or two
of the war the South had all the cur
rency that the heart of Kelley could
desire. And yet the Soutli was not
prosperous. It was considerably less
prosperous than it has been since.
A strange phenomenon indeed. How
can Mr. Kelley account for it? On
the score that the Southern ports
were blockaded so that Southern
products could not conveniently be
marketed abroad? No, not according
to the Kelley philosophy, because
the blockade' was only an efficient
sort of protection. It was ten times
as effective as any tariff in protecting
the infant industries of tiie South
against foreign pauper labor. It
ought, therefore, according to the
Kelley philosophy, to have conspir
ed with the abundance of “cheap
money” to make the Soutli prosper
ous in the extreme. And yet the
South was not prosperous. It is a
great mystery. Who but Kelley can
account for it?

The London Times says: “There;
could hardly be a more critical situa- ]
tion than existed in Berlin upon the
arrival of the Emperor of Russia.
Tho Uermau Government may be
able to declare that a hostile move
ment w as never officially entertained,
but a few' days since theroavas serious
danger that warlike counsel would
prevail. We may suppose Prince
(iortseliakoff courteously expressed
the determination to treat as an ene
my the first State disturbing peace.
In spite of England’s uttitude of re
serve, we believe the Government
thought it a national duty in tho re
cent crisis to express its opinion very
decisively in regard to the mainten
ance of peace. The communication
was amicably received and a most
satisfactory reply returned. France
has expressed acknowledgment of
England’s friendly attitude.”
The Daily News reports that the
Czar has mentioned his desire to con
fer with Mr. Thiers unofficially in
relation to European affairs.
Frauds in Silk Imports.— Few
smuggling operations have required
so many persons to carry it on as
that which is known as tho Silk Con
spiracy. The frauds on the revenue
amounted to $1,000,000, and the plot
embraced many merchants and spec
ulators abroad, and several United
States officials. The business seems
to have been conducted in this coun
try through a more obscure class of
persons, who were perhaps rather
agents than principals in the frauds.
These will be the chief sufferers,
since they are in the hands of the
law. .V. I’. Tribune.

Jordan's Joyous Julep.
A Sped lie for Neuralgia.
TESTIMONIALS.
Petersburg, Ya., Jan. 20th, 1875.
Johu 1.. Jordan, Esq.—Dear Sir: So well pleased
am I with your Joyous Julep, that I hereby tes
tify to the superior merit of your nuequaied
preiaration for Neuralgia. I shall esteem my
self happy should even one of that worst of all
classes of sufferers be led through me to take the
Julep. My wife has for ten (10) years been a mar
tyr to the most malignant and persistent neural
gic torture, without being able to hud any relief
except from your preparation, hhe was relieved
by the second dose os per directions, and has not
had a return of it for two months. To some I
may seem strangely sanguine about your medi
cine, but I have a right to be so. It is not rea
sonable to suppose this malignant malady would
have died of sheer exhaustion of capacity for
sustaining itself,' and that too in a minute, and
the very minute your medicine was taken. If so,
it is a most remarkable, simple coincidence, anil
l prefer giving the credit in your favor of the
beat testimony man can ever have—experience.
Vary truly yours,
JAMES T. TOSH.
Columbus, January 16,1875.
Mr.Jordan: —l take great pleasure in recom
mending your Joyous Julep for neuralgia,
has produced a most wonderful relief in one o\
the severest attacks of neuralgia my daughter
ever has had. She has been treated for it by
three skillful physicians, with very little benefit,
and used all the usual remedies with little suc
cess. I can with much confidence hope for a per
manent cure. It is only two days since we began
| the use of it, and it is apparently of permanent
benefit. Yours, with respect,
MRS. L. I. NORMAN.
