THE DAILY TIMES. CulumbUH, <*.. SUNDAY JUNE 47. 1875 LARGEST DAILY CIRCULATION In City unU llulmrhi. A man of letters—tho Postmaster. A jewel ol a Postmaster Post master-General Jewell. Ukvkudy Johnson has just closed his sixtieth year of active legal ser vice. The crop jirospocts In Mississiiqii uro ropreseuto<l as generally very good. Louisiana reports are equally satisfactory. Portugal lias prohibited the intro duction into that country and adja cent islands of potatoes from the United States. Serious riots caused by the Ultru montanes, occurred In the town of Ithein, Kast Prussia, on the 21st. The Burgomaster was stabbed and dan gerously wounded. Gold has been found in abundance in tho Black Ifills. Custer’s report was true. Grunt has sent his troops to whore they will do (him? tho most good. So far as can be determined by the platforms of the Pennsylvania, Ohio and MaineConvontions, the financial policy of the Hepublionn party is not very definitely fixed. The city debts of the United States uro $18.'.,000,000, against $121,000,000 in Great Britain. London, which has three times the population of Now York, owes but $25,000,000, while New York owes £122,000,000. Switzerland will be represented ut theCentcnnial Exposition. The con tributions of this model Republic, in the great exhibitions of Europe was rich and varied in its character, and largely calculated to add to t he fame of that interesting country. ■ • ♦ Tweed, on being released from Blackwell’s Island Penitentiary, was conveyed to his residence in New York. Tho excitement attendant up on this change of quarters caused him to faint several times. He was afterwards imprisoned in Ludlow street jail. This Government of Spain is palpa bly bankrupt, and yet the product of tho mines has increased, and the revenue from stamps grows larger. Tho commerce with Prance has stead ily made progress; it amounted fl* 2H1,000,0(H) francs in 1.869; in 1875 it reached a total of 856,000, 0(H) francs. On Monduy, June 21, at thirty-nine minutes past three in tho afternoon, on tho ooeurrenoe of tho summer sol stice, the season of summer, astron omically considered, had its begin ning. It will end on tho 23d of Sep tember next, having extended over a period of ninoty-threo days and four teen hours. 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. —. • -V • 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 !■■ have an authoritative declaration of what is the true Democratic doctrine on this all-important subject. From the Hon. Kntirrt Tooiiilk. Washington, Ga., June 23d, 1875. ■ Gentlemen:—l have received your . letter of the 11th inst., inviting me, "in behalf of the citizens of Atlanta, to co-operate with them in person or • by letter in celebrating the nincty -1 ninth anniversary of American inde pendence,”'for which please accept my thanks. When the principles 5 proclaimed by our ancestors in 177i’>, -and nobly maintained and re-estab . lished by thorn, shall have been es , tiiblished, I will then, if on this side of the grave, rejoice with you. lam ' ashamed even to sing penns to the I lion-hearted heroes of that grand epoch in the world’s history, until we snail have regained those eternal principles of self-government which ■ they won, and which wo have both lost and betrayed. I can not shake , hands, with those who dug it, and , filled it with tho bloody corpses of tho brave and tho true, over the bloody chasm which engulphs also the principles of ’7O. I want no fra ternity with States or people without liberty and equality. I am, very truly and respectfully, Your ob’t serv’t, R. Toombs. Messrs. H. V. M. Miller, Geo. Ilill yer, Marcus A. Bell. THESocretary of tho Navy has made a requisition for $300,001) on the Sec retary of tho Treasury to pay tho re mainderof the Farragut prize awards. Tho original amount was $900,000. The suni first named will be placed to the credit of the Assistant Treas urer for the use of the prize fund. It will bo distributed among 4.5(H) per sons heretofore attached to tho thir ty-five or forty vessels of Farragut’s fleet which made the captures from the Confederates. The aggregate amount of money derived from all such naval captures during the late war was about $38,000,000, of which $14,000,000 were turned over to the Naval Pension Fund; SI6,<HTO,OOO dis tributed to captors, and tho remain der absorbed in expenses, &e. The Farragut eases are tho last to be ad justed. - The Supreme Court of Tennessee has decided that the Jury Law is un constitutional, and consequently null and void. So things move on. Mr. Tennyson’s American readers ■will bo pleased to learn that his new poem, "Queen Mary,’’ will be issued nt an early day by James R. Osgood & Cos. 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. ■ ■ I.InT OF LETTER* Remaining iu the Post-Office at Columbus. Ga, Juno 28th. 1875.

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.
