Cincinnati bonovoloneo is splendid
and beautiful. It seems to bo conta
gious. Mr. Groesbeck, a few weeks
since, gave fifty thousand dollars to
provide music for a public park. Mr.
Probosco had placed a costly thing
of beauty in a public square, and had
dedicated his Fountain “to the poo
ple of Cincinnati.” Mr. Groesbeck
gavo music to tho people. Mr. Bon
bon Springer has just offered one
hundred and twenty-five thousand
dollars for the, erection of a Music
Hall. He simply requests that, tho
city give tho, ground on which to
erect tho hall, and that another hun
dred and twenty-five thousand dol
lars, in addition to his own, shall bo
raised by subscription to erect the
musical temple.
The PlDKiie In the West.
From all sections of the far-famed
West comes the cry of tho homeless
and tho hungry, made so by the sev
eral plagues that have visited that
great country. The Governor of Mis
souri is now calling upon the people
to meet and pray to God to avert the
calamity of tho grasshoppers, buf
falo gnats and the famine that re
sults from their visits. Tho pity of
the nation is theirs, and it seems they
| arc sorely stricken. Thousands of
" working men, women and children
are out of bread and employment.
Wo invite them to abandon their
homes and dwell among us. W r e can
offer them cheap homes, heretofore
free from such calamities, healthy,
and though not altogether as fertile
as somo of their lands, yet abounding
in mineral wealth. Under the same
system of farming as is carried on
there by tho skilled farmer our old
fields and uncleared land will yield
them plenty with no fear of grass
hoppers and the prairie fires. The
poople of this section will bo delight
ed to welcome as many sturdy West
ern farmors as can settle tho thous
ands of acres lying adjacent to Co
lumbus.
The Bepubliean press of tho North,
so far as we have observed, has
shown great respect to the memory
of the late John C. Breckinridge.
Tho following from the Chicago JYi
fcurn', a representative organ of the
party of hate, shows a tender and
just appreciation of tho man, and wo
venture to say that few more endur
ing chaplets will lie laid upon his
tomb by political enemies:
“Over the grave of John C. Breck
inridge there will be no words uttered
savo those of respect. He was mor
tal and human charity will permit
no’reproaches upon human weak
nesses. At his grave, It will bo re
membered that he was a man of pure
and spotless personal integrity ; that
lie was a brave and accomplished
soldier, a man of large ability, and
equal to the duties of his high office;
that he had bourn the consequences
of his error in judgment uncomplain
ingly; that he had accepted his hu
miliation and obscurity, und that
within his broken heart there was to
the last n love of country and a
grateful memory of tho people who
had oneo honored and respected
him.”
UARIBAI.UI.
“Bome, May 14.—Tho Senate has
voted a national donation to Gari
baldi.”
Such is tho tenor of the dispatch
sent to America. The name of Gi
useppe Garibaldi is a “household
name” in Europe, as well as In North
and South America. In 1854, the
people of London awaited six hours
the appearance of tho man, en rite mine
rouge, who was received with grand
ovations at Covent Garden and at St.
James. The Prince of Wales, Dukes,
Lords, tradesmen, laborers and beg
gars, all sought to grasp his hand.
Where Mazzlni was persecuted, Gari
baldi was honored. “Nothing suc
ceeds like success.” The poet-lau
reate, Tennyson, culled to see him ;
he who would not speak to the glad
iator, Mazzini, honored Garibaldi.
The Duke of Sutherland received him
at the foot of tho vestibule of Stafford
House. Simple, plain, heroic Gari
baldi 1 This visit was at the time
when Ledru Kollin awaited, with ar
dent faith, tho advent of the French
Bcpublic, for which he was conspiring
in London. It was when Garibaldi
paid his respects to Ledru Bollin that
from tho sea of upturned faces was
heard, “God bless you! God bless
you, Garibaldi!” And it was at this
dining that Garibaldi paid the follow
ing tribute to Mazzini: “When I was
young, witli only vague aspirations,
I sought a counsellor. That man I
found, and he alone has preserved tho
sacred fire. He was awake when all
the world was sleeping. He has ever
been my friend, and tho sacred love
of liberty and country has never
been extinguished in his breast. My
friend! my master!” This after-din
ner speech illustrates the courtesy,
but the fiery character, of the Italian
agitator. Mazzini, grasping his hand,
could only exclaim, “It is too much!
it is too much!” Civis Romanus rum
was tho title tliut Garibaldi craved.
He was not a demagogue, who limited
his claim to simply “man of tho peo
ple” ; he desired to be “man of the
peoples.” It was the same "Camicia
Bossa” that, leaped into tho sea at
Nizzu, as in South America, to rescue
drowning people. It was the candle
maker of New York who aspired to
boa Roman plebeian. While mem
bers of Parliament, with tho highest
of tho nobility, presented their fami
lies to Garibaldi, he did not forget
the faithful “traitor,” Mazzini, but
called him his life-long guide --his
master. The English Premier, Mr.
Gladstone, sought to do Garibaldi
honor. Tho grandeur of tho man is
as apparent in defeat, when ho offered
his sword in aid of tho Spanish and
French republics, as when leading
his little band, ho effected the unity of
Italy, King Victor Emmanuel owes
it to Garibaldi that he is not now
petty King of Sardinia; and united
Italy echoes, with pride, from its an
cient and present capital, “which is
always old but ever new”: “See him!
we have crowned him with the laurel
wreath, and stamped this signet, upon
his brow, ‘Civis Romanus sum.’ Seo
him! tho Idol of the masses, the
greatest of individualities of modern
times, the liberator of his country,
the maker of a King.” Simple ns
when a candle-maker, but with all
the enthusiasm of Michrel Angelo
when he designed the Baptistere at
Florence—employing all his time to
develope the internal resources of
his country. Roma libra ! Italia una!
Garibaldi citizen! These words con
dense his character and illustrate his
life. Extremest of Badicals, it is true,
lie was an enemy of t lie South ; but it
was because lie was blinded by the
idea that our country was a dungeon
keep, our statesmen the advocates of
a slavery ttiat was unknown savo in
the minds of extremists like himself,
and emancipation the cause of hu
manity. Mistaken though he was,
yet the unprejudiced observer must
acknowledge that, lie was true and
faithful to his mission. Greater than
Gioberti, standing with the dump
sheets of the first, issue of II Resorgi
mento, the journal that declared for
the war of independence and for
unity; greater than Cavour, the Bis
marck of Italy; Giuseppe Garibaldi,
in the crowning success of his life, is
still the plain, simple Citizen-General,
wearing his traditional “ Camicia
R ossa.” Hois the Lee of Italy; the
hero of demagogues; a magnanimous
fanatic, but the disinterested friend
of humanity at large.
Xoble Defense of I.ou!slmin.
Bishop Wilmer, of Louisiana, Ims
published a pamphlet entitled "A
Defense of Louisiana.” In this
pamphlet Bishop AVilmer attributes
all tho misery ami persecution of
Louisiana since the war to the great
influx of carpet-baggers, and the di
rect support they have received from
Washington, almost under the in
structions of the President, who was
elected upon tho idea that he must
serve the whole people. The Bishop,
in speaking of the support these
blood suckers received from Wash
ington when these curs wore calling
for “protection,” says:
“Behold them (the carpet-bag
gers) ostracized from their homes -
to become representatives in the Leg
islature; pilgrims and wanderers—
traversing the judicial circuits, guilt
ily and leisurely, to administer jus
tice; driven by tho sharp edge of
persecution to occupy lordly man
sions and sit down at sumptuous ta
bles, who had never riches, some of
them never homes before. Protec
tion is demanded from this great
wrong -protect ion for scorpions who
have stolen the dove’s nest, that they
shall not be obliged to listen to tin;
plaintive erics of the mother bereft
of her young—protection for tho soft
slumbers of the wolf, gorged with his
prey, that he shall not be disturbed
by the bleating of the sheep fold
upon the midnight air.”
This is a true picture, and drawn in
fine style. It will be at once recog
nized everywhere in the South—Co
lumbus included—as a just descrip
tion of men who come among us and
sting the bosom that nourished it
into a respectable livelihood. It fills
the bill for the hundreds of adven
turous wharf rats and prison birds
who have warmed their nests with
the downy foathers of Southern
wealth.
Special Correspondence of tbe Timka.]
Editor ft Times: If you were really
in earnest when you requested the
writer to givo your readers a short
lotter upon tho crop prospects in
Bussell county, that request shull
now bo grunted. To begin : The oat
crop, of which there is an unusually
largo average in the county, is ex
ceedingly promising where tho grain
was sowed in the fall, and is exceed
ingly disheartening where sowed in
the spring. The full oats are now in
full head, and on many farms are be
ing cut, dried a few hours in tho sun
and fed to lean and hungry mules.
The spring oats are very small and
spindling and are twisted almost in
to shoe strings by tho drouth.
Should not this experience teach our
farmers a lesson ? Oats, especially
the rust-proof variety, do not fail one
year out of ten when sowed in the
fall, and do not make a full crop one
year out of twonty when sowed after
Christmas. Yet nearly all onr far
mers wait till after New Year’s Day
to sow oats. One cause of this delay
is the difficulty in procuring the seed
at the proper time. If our clever
friends, Messrs. Holstead & Cos., and
other seed men, were to get in a good
supply of seed by the 15th of Septem
ber, and would advertise them in
the Times, wouldn’t Messrs. Hol
stcad & Cos., tho farmers and
the proprietors of the Times all
be benefltted ? AVhat says the talent
ed author of tho prize essay on grass
culture to this? Another paying
and much neglected crop is rye. Tho
writer, two years since, had thirty
ucres (poor landj in rye, and made
forage enough (cut, green and cured
to supply two plantations. As soon
as the rye was high enough to out, he
began feeding it to his stock, and re
duced tho allowance of corn one
third, and could see no diminution
in liorxe flesh. It is an old adage,
that rye will grow as high as the
fence, no matter how high the fence
nor how poor tho land. It will cer
tainly grow ns high as the fences in
this country.
AVell, it is a little too early to
preach a sermon, with corn and cot
ton as a text, as we carmot tell what
a day will bring forth. But wo have
a good stand of cotton, and it is be
ing rapidly cleaned, the dry weather
affording an excellent opportunity
for “chopping.” The corn is only
so-so. It is suffering from lack of
rain, and looks rather diminutive
for the season. But we hope to
make in greater acreage what we lose
by drouth &o. The negroes are
working well. Have quit their fool
ish talk about tho Civil Bights bill,
and are plowing bulls, where they
can’t got mules or oxen, with a ven
geance.
Let me say, by way of parenthesis,
that the Times is an excellent paper,
and well merits its almost unparalied
success.
Who will be Georgia’s next Gov
enor ? We Alabamians think that
Colquitt will be the coming man.
Certainly, Georgia has no truer,
wiser, or safer son than is to bo found
in the person of that hero, Christian,
and statesman, A. H. Colquitt.

A PPLETONS’
American Cyclopaedia,
New Revised Edition.
Entirely rewritten by the ablest writers oa every
subject. Printed from new type, and illus
trated with Several Thousand Engravings
and Maps.
Tho work originally published under tho title
of This New Amxjucam Cxcvovmudla. was com
pleted in 1803, since which time the wide circula
tion which it has attained In all parts of the
United States, and 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 an exact and thorough
revision, and to issue anew edition entitled Thk
American Cyclopaedia.
Within the last ten years the progress of dis
covery in every department of 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 iruitful
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 when the last volume oi
the old work appeared, has happily been ended,
and anew course of eummercial and industrial
activity has 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 result of the lapse of time,
have brought into public view a multitude of new
men, whose names arc 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 tho 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 oi the editors to
bring 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 alter long and care
ful preliminary labor, and with the most ample
resources tor 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, forming in fact anew Cyclopaedia, with
tho 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.
Tho illustrations which aro introduced for the
first time in tho present edition Lave been added
not for tho sake of pictorial effect, but to give
greater lucidity and force to the explanations iu
the text. They embrace all branches of science
and 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 and manufactures.
Although intended for instruction rather
embeliahmeut, no paimt have been spared to in
sure their artistic excellence; the coat of their
execution is enormous, and it is believed they
will find a welcome reception as an admirable
feature of the Cyclopedia, 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, and with numerous
colored Lithographic Maps.

TH E SIT N.
DAILY AND WEEKLY FOR 1875.
The approach of the Presidential election gives
unusual importance to the events aud develop
ments of 1875. We shall endeavor to describe
them fuUy, faithfully and fearlessly.
THE 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 aud add to its variety
and power.
THE WEEKLY SUN will continue to b a thor
ough newspaper. AU the news of the day will be
found in it, condensed when unimportant, at
full length when of moment, and alwavß, we
trust, treated In a clear, intere sting and instruct
ive manner.
It is our aim to make tbe Weekly Hun the best
family newspaper In the workl. It will be fnll of
entertaining aud appropriate reading of every
sort, but will print nothing to offend the most
scrupulous and delicate taste. It will always
contain the most interesting stories and ro
mances of the day, carefully selected and legibly
printed.
Tho Agricultural Department is a prominent
feature in the Weekly Hun, and its articles Will
always bo found fresh and useful to the farmer.
The number of men independent in politics is
increasing, and the Weekly Ran is their paper
especially. It belongs to no party, and obeys no
dictation, contending for principle, and lor the
election of the best men. It exposes the corrup
tion that disgraces the country and threatens the
overthrow of republican institutions. It has no
fear of knaves, and seeks no favors from their
supporters.
The markets of every kiud and the fashions
are regularly reported.
The price of the WEEKLY SUN is one dollar a
year for a sheet of eight pages, and fifty-six col
umns. As this barely pays the expenses of paper
and printing, we are not able to make any dis
count or allow any premium to friends who may
make special efforts to extend its circulation.
Under the new law. which requires payment of
postage in advance, cue dollar a year, with twenty
cents the cost of prepaid postage added, is the
rate of subscription. It is not necessary to get
up a club in order to have the Weekly Sun at this
rate. Any one who sends one dollar and twenty
cents will get the paper, postpaid for one year.
We have no traveling Agents.
THE WEEKLY SUN—Eight pages, 36 columns.
Only $1.30 a year, postage prepaid. No discount
from this rate.
THE DAILY SUN—A large four-page newspaper
of twenty-eight columns. Daily circulation over
130,000. All the news for 3 cents. Subscription,
postage prepaid, 55 cents a month, or $6.50 a
year. To clubs of 10 or over, a discount of 20
per cent. Address
