The Now York Herald, commenting
ou the baccalaureate sermons deliv
ered at the Northern Commence
ments, remarks that they are no
longer expressions of mere sectarian
ism, and thut they arc so much alike
as to make it impossible to discover
tho sect in tho discourse, which fact
It regards as a proof not only of a
generous Christian spirit, but of a
culture which will not trammel itself
by narrow bigotry.
Poor Mississippi. Mr. NordholT
thus writes; It is a notorious fact
t hat Gov. Ames lias appointed to ju
dicial places men ignorant of law,
and that ho has usod the appointing
power to shield criminals who aro his
adherents, and to corrupt the judici
ary of the State. A large portion of
tho members of UlO Legislature are
colored men, who can neither read
nor write, and whose sense of respon
sibility to their constituency is ex
ceedingly limited.
In spite of tho fact that the most
generous appropriations were mode
for tho Indians at Port Sill, besides
an extra one of SBOO,OOO obtained for
them at, tho instance of tho Presi
dent, tho Indians at Port Sill aro on
the verge of starvation. Col. Hatch
and other United States officers prove
that the Indian Bing, headed by De
lano, Smith, Cowan aud their con
federates, must have pocketed tho
$200,000. The Rev. Commissioner
Smith has been convicted of shameful
lying.
A CORRESPONDENT of the Montgom
ery Advertiser, in giving an account
of tho manner in which artificial ice
is made, says that 70,000 gallons of
water are used daily in tho manufac
ture of 12,000 pounds of ice, the cost
of which when placed in the ice house
is about tliroe-eighths of a cent per
pound. He adds; It is said that this
ice is actually colder (if such a thing
bo possible) than lake ice; that iu a
room at 100 degrees Fahrenheit, in
summor, it would not even show
moisture 011 the surface for fully fif
teen minutes. [Tho machine in which
tho ice abovo described is manufac
tured was built at the Columbus (Go.)
Iron Works.— Eds.]
We give elsewhere a letter from a
correspondent in Kansas, to which
Wo refer our readers. It merits care
ful perusal and substantiates all that
we have said relative to securing im
migrants. It rests entirely with our
land-owners, and if they will make a
determined effort success is bound to
ensue. Tho only way on earth that
riches have been acquired by the
landed proprietors in the West is by
the enhancement of the value of real
estate. The only way on earth that
this enhancement can be obtained is
by inducing immigrants with capital
to purchase our surplus lands. Ono
family, contented and making mon
ey, will bo the means of bringing
forty other families.
The Atlanta Herald, In alluding to
tho fact that tho negro schools of that
city will turn out shortly from flvo
to six hundred young men and wo
men, nil of whom can read, write,
,and work uny ordinary mathematical
problem, states that they aro pos
sessed of a considerable smattering
of Latin, Greek and French. Now,
whilo wo think a general education
of the negroes will tend to make them
vote Intelligently and in favor of tho
industrial interests of our country,
we can not see the utility of introduc
ing tho classics into their schools.
Pupils, white and black, study entire
ly too many books to thoroughly ap
preciate tho advantages of useful ed
ucation. Lot the colored people dis
card tho classics and learn English.

The Juno exodus to Europe has
been larger than usual this year, the
outgoing steamers being crowded in
steerage us well as in cabin. Lack
of work and the high price of living,
added to low rates of passage this
■Spring, have driven a large number
of our foreign population back to I
Germany and Ireland, for a time at
leust.
The reason why the colored people
should not vote with the Republicans
is seen by tho following, which we
clip from the Cincinnati Enquirer.
bribery and corruption by that party
have plunged the Southern States in
debt. This debt causes heavy taxa- :
tion; heavy taxation impoverishes
tho people; if the white people are
impoverished the colored people aro
bound to suffer more and more the
hard pangs of poverty. The inter
ests of tho two races are identical.
When money becomes plentiful wages
will be high, and vice verm:
This is what the negro Lieutenant-
Governor of Mississippi —a man
named Davis has done; Ho lias par
doned from the State Prison one
Thomas Barrontinc, who was guilty
of (lie following crime: A woman,
helpless and unprotected, was seized
by two men (Barrontine and an ac
complice), dragged from her house,
with her two children clinging to her
skirts and begging for her life, taken j
to a tree near bv, and, as his accom
plice held her, Barrentine shot, tier a
number of times in the back and
breast, of course killing her instant
ly. Davis asked GovcrnouAmes, ou
the 21st of May, to pardon this bloody
villain, who ought to have been bung
instead of being sent to the State
Prison. Ames refused. Some time
after Ames had occasion to leave 1 he
State, when the negro (Davis) as
sumed tho reins of government, and
immediately pardoned the murderer.
It is said he received $1,200 for doing
it. This is the result of Republican
reconstruction in Mississippi.
Barrentine was a white man, and
ought to have been tried by a judge
like Judge Bartlett.
With regard to tho Franklin Re
formatory Home for Inebriates, of
Philadelphia, the New York Sun
says:
A powerful influence is exerted
upon the inmates of the Franklin
Home by tho visits of reformed ine
briates who have been reclaimed
there, and who regularly devote a
part of their time to the encourage
ment of those who are endeavoring
to follow their example. During the
throbyears that the institution has
been in operation, of 372 applicants
who have been admitted, 15s are re
ported as reformed, 45 ns benefited,
and 13!) as "doubtful.” The average
time that the inmates have been m
tho habit of drinking to excess was
six years and seven months.
The New York Tribune lias the fol
lowing :
As platform-builders the Maine
Democrats evidently take the lead of
their brethren of the same name, Jjut
somewhat different principles, in
Ohio. The resolutions adopted in
the State Convention at Augusta yes
terday appear to iiave been carefully
considered and judiciously forded,
and contain some wholesome politi
cal truths. In regard to the one term
and smaller salary propositions, and
on most points, indeed, the Democ
racy of these States stand together;
but on the currency question the
’Maine and Ohio Conventions are in
direct antagonism, the one speaking
for hard money aud the other for pa
per. It will soon be necessary !■■

what is the true Democratic doctrine
on this all-important subject.

LETTER TUO.H KAHs.Ii.
Pleasanton, Lime Cos., Kansas, I
Juno 21st, 1575. f
Editors Columbus Times: I write
you to obtain information in regard
to tho country surrounding Colum
bus, Ga., with a view of emigrating
thither.
I have been reading your paper ful
some months, and am highly pleased
with it as a newsy shoot, and also as
a candid and just political exponent.
Tho people—both Republicans and
Democrats—even in this intensely
Radical State of Kansas, begin to
learn that they have been deceived In
relation to the actual state of affairs
in the South, and are very generally
advocating a more liberal course in
dealing with political questions in
that section of tho country. They
begin to think it time to bury the
issues which have been so long dead,
and bring all sections into a real and
! harmonious union.
I So far as Grant is concerned, very
j few Republicans of whom lam one
- would support him if nominated.
Both Grant and the spirit which lias
controlled tho Republican party for
the last few years, must be abandon
ed, or a large portion of the vote of
this section will be lost,
I see you are making efforts to in
duce emigration to your State. If
you desire it from the Northwest,
there will certainly be no more favor
able time for years than now, to se
cure it. Last year there was a total
failure of crops here, and this season
the grasshoppers have destroyed
everything so far. Farmers are now
planting their corn for the second and
third time. Whether anything will
be raised is yet uncertain. Most of
the grasshoppers have gone, though
enough remain to do immense dam
age. In this state of things the peo
ple are greatly discouraged, and many
of them will leave. Homo go farther
West -others to Texas- while still
others prefer to try the region of
Georgia, or Alabama.
I have looked the columns of the
Times very carefully over for the ad
vertisements of real estate agents, or
of lands for sale, but do not find any
thing of tho kind. This is a phenom
enon to a Western man.
Ail our papers are crowded with
such matter. There must be land for
sale in that, section surely, or you
would hardly endeavor to induce an
immigrant to your State. Could suf
ficient land be bought, either in a
body, or not widely scattered, to set
tle from eight to twelve families, with
from 150 to 200 acres each? One hun
dred and sixty acres here is the ordi
nary farm, and most of our best |
farmers do not believe in a vast num
ber of acres.
• What is tho general character
of the country iu your vicinity—l
mean within ten to fifteen miles of
your town? What is the timber?
How is water as to quantity and
quality? What .arc the products most
profitable? A variety of crops would
be desirable. What is such land as
might be purchased worth that is
the average price?
I will not weary you with too many
questions. If there is any person
there to whom tiiis would be more in
the lino of business, please give it to
him. If not, such replies to my ques
tions its you may find convenient to
make will tie gladly received. I have
[ no knowledge of a Htate Board of Irn
-1 migration, or of other means of gain
\ ing the information sought, except
I by your kindness.
Yours, very respectfully,
Hf.kkt Plumb.
The Times will Is- glad to furnish
lull the information in its power. Our
■ reward will in time come, if wo prove
| to our iKtople thut we are right in as
j sorting that the tide of immigration
| can be turned this way if they will
(only make tho effort to do it. We
! would suggest to our corrcsi>ondent
; to have an agent appointed to come
; out and see for himself. Our people
[ have never learnt, the value of print-
I er’s ink, and hence do not advertise
I like the thrifty Western people. Once
convince them that immigrants will
come and purchase our fertile but
cheap lands, aud our columns will
teem with advertisements. The
Times has entered tho breach single
handed and with a single purpose,
viz: the development of this portion
of Georgia. City real estate will rise
int'alue proportionately with country
real estate. There is no conflict what
ever between the two races, and wo
j care nothing about a man’s polities,
if in- is a good citizen and will identi
fy his interests with ours. His inter
ests, if he is a good citizen, will in
fluence his vote for good. Wo have
no truer nor better citizens tiian those
of Northern and foreign birtli who
have for a long time resided with us.
Sufficient land can bo bought in a
body in the vicinity of Columbus to
settle one hundred families, on 100
acres each, at from live to ten dollars
per aero. Land that before the war
cost S4O per acre can now be bought
for $lO per acre. Small farms pay
best, Tlio character of tho Chatta
hoochee vaWoy is alluvial soil, partly
subject to annual overflows in the
early spring, easily worked, aud es
pecially adapted to corn, oats and cot
ton. The river bottoms are our best
lands, aud are the highest priced.
Next to the river level are bench
lantjg, followed by an upland table
land of very extensive dimensions,
heavily timbered (where not cleared)
with pine, the different varieties of
oak and hickory. The “mulatto” up
land soil is very productive aud very
cheap. Water is abundant, each farm
nearly being provided with perennial
streams of clear freestone water.
The falls of the Chattahoochee (up
wards of 100 feet fall in four miles)
furnish the most valuable water-pow
er South of St. Paul, Minnesota.
! Many large manufactories aro now
being operated and in eomtempla
tion.
Tho products embrace nearly all
staple crops found north of the trop
| iee. Sugar cane, sweet potatoes, oats,
1 cotton, corn and hay aro staple pro- 1
iluctlons, and, wo think, in the order
named as regards prbilts. In North
ern Georgia hay is tho most profit
able of staple crops. If special atten
tion were given to it, we think it
would be found to bo tho most proflt
: able crop raised here. No part of
Georgia offers a liner field for profit
to tho dairymen or fruit culturists.
Finally, our jieoplo will welcome all 1
now comers who do uotcome as agi
tators and political aspirants.

Jordan's Joyous Julep.

TESTIMONIALS.
Petersburg, Va., Jan. 20th, 1875.
John L. Jordan, Esq.—Dear Sir: So well pleased
am I with your Joyous Julep, that I hereby tes
tify to the’ superior merit of your uuequaled
preparation 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. wife has for ten (10) years been a mar
tyr to the most malignant and persistent neural
gic torture, without being able to find any relief
except from your preparation. She was relieved
by the second dose as per directions, and has not
had a return of it for two mouths. 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, aud that too in a minute, aud
the very minute your medicine was taken. If so,
it is a most remarkable, simple coincidence, and
I prefer giving tho credit iu your favor of the
best testimony man can ever have—experience.
Vary truly yours.
JAMES T. TOSH.
Colimbus, January 16,1875.
Mr.Jordan:— I take great pleasure in recom
mending your Joyous Julep for neuralgia,
has produced a most wonderful relief in one oj
the severest attacks of neuralgia my daughter
ever has had. She has bn 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 tope 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.
