To-day Columbus is honored by tho
presonco of hundreds of good people,
who hare come to see us in company
with tho members of tho Episcopal
Church of Opelika. Our people of all
grades, classes und professions gladly
welcome them to our borders, and
promise to make their stay as pleas
ant and us agreoablo as lies in our
powor. Columbus boasts of no splen
did and spacious hails, no gilded
domes and heaven-pointing spires,
but we have a noblo and generous
people who are evor ready to oxtcnd
the right hand of fellowship to our
neighbors.
We trust the visit of all will provo
pleasant and profitable. We hope
those from a dlstanoe may become so
enchanted with the “Queen of the
Chattahoochee” that they will return
to dwell with us, and pay their hom
age at her throne.

The mining troubles in tho Penn
sylvania coal regions are about end

havo lost its force, and the miners
are returning to work on tho terms
first proposed. The result, of this un
fortunate strike has been a serious
loss to the mining companies, and a
more serious one to the men engaged
in it.

Some idea of the totally bankrupt
and delinquent condition of tho city
of Chicago and county of Cook may
bo gathered from this current news
paper paragraph:
“The telegraph informs us that the
largest daily i>aper ever published in
the world was the Chicago Inter-
Occan of yesterday. It contained 144
pages and 804 columns. The manu
script of the delinquent list published
in it, the paper weighed 275 pounds,
occupied 1,337 pages, employed 30
compositors 36 days, and. took 20 wa
gons to doliver tho paper yesterday
morning.”
How They Build Railroads.— Mr.
Henry, chairman of a committee ap
pointed by the Chico Grangers, has
made a report recommending the
construction of a narrow-gaugo rail
road from Chieo to Colusa, a distance
of thirty-six miles. The cost is esti
mated at $400,000 for the road, roll
ing stock and stations, and it would
be more than covered by a contribu
tion of $2 per acre for every acre
within five miles of tho line o’n each
side, while the saving at $2 per ton
would, on an average crop in one
year, amount to sll per acre.
And when that narrow-gaugo road
is built, then will those deluded Cali
fornians buy their corn and bacon
like unto a cotton planter.
The Merklenburs Centennial.
Wo give elsewhere a letter from one
of our esteemed subscribers in Leo
county, Alnbajna, criticising on arti
cle In the Washington Chronicle. We
can not refrain from imitating him,
us it seems that tho threadbare argu
ments advanced before the war
ugalnst the South ore to bo repeated
in the next Presidential eleetlon.
These Radical journals do not seem
to regard either the practicability or
tho truthfulness of their monstrous
propositions. Isolated truths assume
on importance and controlling influ
ence, unwarranted when passed
through the crucible of a rigid analy
sis. Every man’s tale seems to be
right until his opponent tells his. A
wiso man is never hasty in his con
clusions. But tho abominable cant
of tho Radical journals that will not
even allow us to celebrate the Meek
lenburg Centonniul-to which no Uni
ted States officer would go— without
finding in it treason to “that dear
old flag”—that piece of bunting
nothing more, nothing less which
was designed to represent an idea.
That idea was liberty; tho liberty
that was gained from separating from
England. English interference in
tho local law, English dictation of
law. Was there ever designed such
an Union as is contemplated by the
Republican party, and which they
are endeavoring to establish by per
verting all laws, human and divine ?

Lee County, Alabama.
Editor Times: The Washington
Chronicle, of May 22d, contains two
editorials which I feel should bo crit
icised. Perhaps it is best not to
judge harshiy our opponents, for af
ter all that is claimed for the far
reaching sagacity of man, we have
but to recall the speech of that emi
nent man, Stephen A. Douglas, just
before the war, in order to be con
vinced of the utter recklessness of
the American people. That speeeli
serves as a finger-board to point to
how little we know of facts which we
have not experienced. Among other
things ho spoke of the enormous
cost of the then impending war, as
estimated by those accustomed to
make such calculations. He consid
ered these estimates -approximating,
we think, three thousand millions of
dollars—as far too great an outlay for
all the results that would ensue. Re
sults have proved that his estimates
were far, fur under tho real cost of
the war. Tho really true issues be
tween the North and the South are:
Shall wo have a consolidated or con
federated form of government? Sum
ner, Oliver Wendell Holmes, Phil
lips, and others of like views, ex
pressed certain speculative ideas
which happened to he iu accordance
with the seeming interests of New
England; because of this seeming
interest New England embraced them
and the war ensued. These New
England ideas were averse to tliat
saving clause in our Constitution,
“That all powers not expressly grant
ed to tho United States is reserved
to tho several States.” Tho whole
germ of our Government is opposed
oither to an Empire, an Aristocracy,
oraeentralizod French-like unbridled
Democracy. Tho intensely distorted
views of the Washington Chronicle
and its Radical compeers forces us
to ask: Is there any Teal apprehen
sion that the Southern people will
contend for anything more than lo
cal or State Government under the
Constitution? Though the Constitu
tion and laws of the country guaran
teed slavery if the States desired it,
tlvat question is eternally Bettled in
favor of emancipation. From a ma
terial point of view, although we
know that we were unconstitutionally
deprived of our slaves, wo do not de
sire the re-establishment of slavery,
and we accept the logical results of
the war. When woof the South
know that these facts are universally
true, we are convinced that it is only
the loss of powor by tho Republican
party, and the exposure of the wrongs
for which it is responsible, that is
feared. Surely tho Northern masses
cannot be led by such partisan and
unjust sheets as the Washington
Chronicle.
I wish success for the Times.

We take tho liberty of publishing
the following letter, thinking it of
general interest to know the oostt of
producing pig iron:
Diamond Fubnace, I
Babtow Cos., Ga., May 24,1875. |
Editors Tunes: Tlense find en
closed two dollars, as my subscrip
tion to Weekly Times for one year.
I read in your issue of the 18th a very
beautiful poem, “Curfew shall not
toll to night,” with an interrogation
mark ns to tho authorship; and just
now I see in the N. Y. Observer of the
18th, that “the authoress was Miss
Rosa A. Hartwieh, of Litchfield,
Hillsdale county, Mich., now Mrs.
Rosa A. Thorpe, of Fremont, Steuben
county, 111.”
We continue blowing here, under
discouraging circumstances. The
market is very low and dull. Metal
of our quality brings generally about
S3O nett, instead of SSO, which it did
when wo used to meet at the Burford
Bank. Nevertheless wo have reduced
our expenses here materially by the
introduction of brick ovens for mak
ing charcoal, and I believe we are
still producing iron for less than S3O
per ton.
With much regard,
Yours truly,
R. H. C.
Cardinal McCloskey has been pre
sented with a $20,000 cross. It is n
pectoral cross in brilliants, and the
precious gems were valued at Tiffany’s
at $5,000.
“This pectoral cross was presented
to Archbishop Hughes by the late
saintly Queen Louise of Belgium as
a testimonial of her high regard for
tho great American prelate. This
cross, the personal property of the
Archbishop, he bequeathed to his
sister, the late Mother Angela, at the
time Superior General of the Sisters
of Charity, and by hor death it came
into the possession of tho community
of Mount St. Vincent. Whon Dr. Mc-
Closkey succeeded Archbishop
Hughes it bad boon the wish of
Mother Angela and sisterhood to
give him the cross, as being the dear
est friend and chosen heir of their
deceased founder. But by tho advice
of Vicar General Starrs the presenta
tion was deferred to some future oc
casion. And now Providence has so
ordered that the gift of the sainted
daughter of Louis Philippe to tho
prelate who stood in the eyes of tho
Old World and the New as tho most
illustrious representation of the
American Church shall rest on the
gentle and fatherly heart of our first
American Cardinal.”
“The south."
The Los Angeles Herald quotes a
portion of a recent article in the Call,
under this caption, and comments us
follows; “Such language does not
come with a very good grace from a
journal which has wasted so much
Irik within tho past twelve months to
convince Congress that all the little
rivers emptying into San Francisco
Bay ought to be widened und deep
ened at the expense of the nation.”
Our Los Angeles contemporary mis
apprehends tho position of the Call
in relation to Federal appropriations
for widening and otherwise improv
ing little rivers, let them discharge |
their puny streams where they may.
We hold that money should not be I
voted for internal improvements ex
cept of a riutlonul character. While!
the vicious practice holds, of each
State urging its claims, wo would not
impuir the efforts of our Representa
tives to obtain a fair share for Cali
fornia; but we have contended that
it would lie better for California und
all other States if each locality would I
attend to itsowu local improvements.
A great national work, like opening
the mouth of the Mississippi, or con
structing levees to protect the Missis
sippi Vulley from its overflowing wa
ters, may be undertaken by the nu
tion ; but no enterprise of a churacter
purely local in its effects should be
considered in Congress. Tile country j
is too large for such legislation, mid
the opportunities for misspending the
people’s money too great. Still, if
the practice which lias prevailed to
such extent within the past ten or
twelve years is to continue, we freely
admit the claims of the South to a
first consideration. Tho North has
nearly monopolized appropriations
for local improvements since the war.
The vast expenditures of the Govern
ment have awakened public attention
to the vioiousness of this kind of leg-1
islation and to the corrupt jobs that
are nearly always concealed under
bills of this character, and the result
will probably be to add to the num
ber of members of Congress who are
opposed in principle to any appro
priations for internal improvements.
At this time it is Intimated that the
South will come forward as a political
unit, making appropriations for in
ternal improvement t heir first consid
eration under all circumstances. This
clannishness can only work against
them in the end. When Southern
statesmen consider the welfare of the
whole country as well as of the
South, the whole country will con- j
aider tho welfare of the South. San \
Francisco Call.
Will the Call explain how the South j
will ever get tho necessary appropri- j
ations passeil if our Representatives
do not make this their chief interest ?
It is certainly of first importance to
the South. The “game” of the Rad
icals, to have a sudden lit of pure and
unsectional legislation and opposi
tion to all internal improvements
just as the South has an opportunity
to assert her claims, is too transpa- j
rent to deceive.

Says tho Cincinnati Enquirer:
Tho monetary panic of 1873 is not
yet over. If any thing, its stringency
has been increased. That shows that
tho causes which produced it origi
nally arc still in operation. Those
causes are permanent in 1 heir char
acter under existing laws. We are to j
have this state of things as long as
wo are guilty of t he folly of supposing i
that seven hundred millions of dot- !
lars in circulation are adequate to do :
the business of forty millions of peo- |
pie in such a country as the United
States, which is so largely unde
veloped in its industrial resources.
If there is a farmer who thinks
that he does not receive a
sufficient amount for his agri
cultural products ho may charge
it to tho fact that there is too small
an amount of money in circulation.
So wo say of the manufacturer, the
merchant, the moonanie and the la
borer. They are all ain similar posi
tion. In the last ten years the Gov
ernment bonds have appreciated in
value more than fifty per cent., while
other values have decreased fifty per
cent, on their par value. This fins
been owing to the calling in, by the
monetary power, of the volume of
circulation from nearly $2,200,000,000
to less than $700,000,000. The less
money there is to redeem the boutis
the more valuable is that money, and
the more it will purchase of every
thing else. Here is the key to tho
whole bondholding policy.
Two Irishmen were working iu a
quarry, when one of them fell into a
deep quarry hole. Tho other, alarm
ed, fame to tho margin of the hole
and called out, “Arrab, Pat, are ye
killed intiroly? If ye’re dead, spake ?”
Pat reassured him from the bottom
by saying, in answer, “No, Tim, I'm
not dead, but I’m spacholess.”
