—liishoj. Gross oonilrmed ano hun
dred and six persons in Augusta on
Wed nesday.
—Atlanta is never satisfied. They
now want a State market-house, to
dis]>cnse vegetables and meats
through the State.
-The Milledgeville correspondent
of the Augusta Constilutionalist calls
attention, to the crowded state of the
State lunatic asylum, and its inca
pacity to receive the scores of patients
that the State now contains.
A negro living about five miles
from Atlanta caught and caged
eleven partridges last Winter, from
which he lias raised sixty young ones
who are tame, healthy and apparent
ly perfectly domesticated.
The creditors and bondholders of
the Atlanta rolling mill were con
sulting Saturday on a proposition
made by the late employees. It is
rumored that William Ooodnow lias
tendered his resignation as receiver,
and tiiat Dr. N. S. Angier will be the
coming man.
Thomas L. Wells was found dead
in his room in Atlanta. A letter to
his brother indicated that, lie would
commit suicide that night. A coron
ers’ jury, however, said he died from
congestion of the brain. His last let
ter said he did not believe there was
a God.
—The sable Representative in the
Legislature from lirunswiek, Jim
Blue, went to a colored pie-nio at
Albany the other day, and when ho
returned home and retired after the
day’s pleasures and excitement, his
pockets were picked of seventy-five
dollars and two suits of his best
clothes curried off by the rogues.
Scarratt, the live Hengiistiman of
Atlanta, lias retired from the English
games at Oglethorpe Park, and joined
hands with old grizzly in the control
of the Erening Commonwealth. Look
out for enterprise. Alston, Grady
and Clark will soon see another full
Hedged daily rise from the slumber
ing remains of the Erening Common
wealth.
Says the Monroe Advertiser; It is
rumored extensively in Atlanta that
Judges McKay and Trippe, of tlie
Supreme Court, will resign at an early
day, and it is thought that Hon. Hope
Hull, of Augusta, and Col. L. E.
Bleckley, of Atlanta, will bo appoint
ed to the positions. We heard the
rumor so often while in Atlanta, that
we are persuaded it is true.
Wilkes and Polk counties secured
a little the stoutest anti-liquor law
that was passed during the last ses
sion. Under its terms no license to
retail liquors can bo granted for less
than twelve months or for a less sum
than one hundred dollars; and no
license whatever can be granted out
side the limits of incorporated towns
except upon the written consent of a
majority of the freeholders who are
voters that reside within three miles
of the place of retailing.

18 IT A CRIME TO BE A OF.II.MAN ?
To J. M. Edmunds, Es'f, Chairman
of National Republican Executive
Committee, Washington, D. C.:
Deal - Sir—Having been a Republi
can ever since tbe present Republi
can party was formed, and having
never voted any other Federal ticket
than the Republican, I claim the
right to call your attention to a mat
ter which lies within the control of
your committee, and which threatens
to injure the Republican party by
alienating from it a large mass of its
supporters, i have been so unfortu
nate as to displease the central and
chief organ of the Republican party
■the Washington National Republi
crt— by some letters in the New
York Herald, containing the results
of investigations into the political
and industrial condition of several
Southern States; and your organ ac
cordingly informs its readers, in an
editorial article, which has just
come into my hands, that I
ought not to be believed not
because I have misstated facts, or
am an incapable or inaucurate ob
server-but on the ground that I am
a “Dutch Jew,” “Dutch” standing
hero, of course, for German. I have
noticed that ignorant Americans
commonly calUheGermans“Dutch.”
Now, if I were, in the organ’s elegant
phrase, a “Dutch Jew,” I don’t see
what that has to do with the credi
bility of my statements. I am, in fact,
a German, and am proud of my de
scent from a people who have been
the faithful supporters of liberty on
two continents. lam not a Jew, but
if I were I should not be ashamed of
THE DAILY TIMES.
I it; for the Jews in this country are an
! intelligent, industrious and peaceable
body of citizens. But the organ
thinks differently. Speaking in the
name of the Republican Administra
tion, whose mouth-pioco it is, it lias
tho folly to assert that if n man is a
German by blood ho is, therefore,
not to be believed; if he is a Jew by
religion ho is thereby unworthy of
commence.
is this really Republican doctrine ?
If not, is it prudent in you to allow
your organ to offer such a wanton in
sult to a very large number of citizens,
Germans and Jews, who mostly vote
the Republican ticket, and,whose
votes next year will be absolutely in
dispensable to the success of the par
ty V You ought to muzzle your dog,
the National Republican. A recent
aid notorious over-dose of Govern
ment pan has given him an Indiges
tion, and he is snapping al the heels
of your friends. If you lot him go on
ho will presently do the party a dam
age. We arc to'have iiuportuut elec
tion.-) this Pall; and next year there
will be aPrcsidential election. Have
you forgot to n this ? Is it not an in
sane folly to let your ofllcial organ
under your very nose, ting a
gratuitous insult in the faces
of several hundred thousand
German and Jewish voters,
and this is tile name of the
Republican party, and as presumably
an ofllcial declaration of the senti
ments of tho party chiefs? Do you
really want to drive these voters
away from the Republican ranks? or
do you imagine they have no self
respect or resentment? And have
you no fear that tho Democrats will
iiso such declarations, made In your
chief organ, against the party next
year? Or oven in Ohio and Pennsyl
vania this year? The Republican
party should" have a respectable or
gan in Washington. But if you can
not get rid of the National Republican
you ought at luastto change its name,
You might call it tho National Idiot.
I make you the suggestion as a sin
cere and earnest Republican.
Yours truly,
C’llAUU'.s Norbiioff.

BREAKING I I* A GIKCOB.
STARVIN’), MEN DEMANDIN'!! 11KEAD OR
BLOOD -RUNNING OFF THE HORSES
A PROCESSION THAT BIVLLED FAL
STAFF’S MOTLEY COMMAND.
From tho Chicago Tin:,-.- ]
Tho situation connected with tile
breaking up of old Yankee Robinson’s
great modern show is hourly grow
ing more interesting. Last night tho
canvass and other common laboring
men, to t lie number of about one hun
dred and fifty, who had been without
foot! for nearly twenty-four hours,
assembled in front of tho Merchant’s
Hotel, where Mnj. W. H. Dyke uf
Faribault, who had possession of a
large part of the property under
mortgage for money advanced, was
stopping, demanding bread or blood.
A number of policemen were prompt
ly on the spot, and the turbulent
crowd was kept in order. In the
meantime tho Mayor was notified of
the situation, and steps were at once
taken to furnish the hungry mob
with food at the expenso.of tile city.
Under this promise the mob return
ed to their quarters, and quiet was
restored. This forenoon some mi
horses and 8 cages and vans, fully
one-half the valuable property of the
show, were released to two parties,
Cooper and Scott, who made affida
vit that this property had been hired
to the concern. This noon the Sher
iff made another attachment on the
concern for $7,Z13 75 for the bonottt
of tlic Express Printing Company of
Rochester, N. Y., for show printing
done. Shortly after a grand conn
d’etat took place, which hits created
no little excitement. Tho lust
attachment, covered the remain
ing property. In this property were
included twenty-two horses. All at
once these twenty-two horses, each
with a rider, emerged from the sta
bles, and under whip and spur the
riders flourishing revolvers and
threatening to shoot alt who intor
ferrod with them, headed for the Da
kota county line, some four miles
distant. So sudden and unexpected
was the movement that all escaped.
The procession of fleeing horsemen
was a sight not often exceeded in its
ludicrous aspects. Many of the riders
were bareheaded. Some were in their
shirt sleeves. Some hud saddles,
while others were bareback. Some
of the horses were bridled, and others
were guided with a halter. Other
horses had parts of harness on, and
still others some of the gay trappings
of the circus. All in all, it was a pro
cession not exceeded in ridiculous
surroundings except by the famous
command of Shakespeare's Fulstaff.
The remainder of the property, con
sisting of the tents, some eight old
baggugo wagons, and a lot of cheap
stuff going to make such a show, has
been housed by the sheriff for safe
keeping, there being rumors that the
employees had threatened to burn it
that night. Most of the leading ac
tors have left for the East, though
nearly one hundred employees are
still here penniless and depending on
the city and private charity for food.
A variety exhibition is to be given at
the Opera House, the house and per
formers being volunteered for the
benefit of the circus men still here,
and a movement is on foot to raiso
funds to send those desiring to their
homes and other localities.

TEXT OF THE DECISION DECLARING ITS
INVALIDITY IN SETTLING DEBTS
DURING THE WAR.
The Supreme Court, in the case of
Catharine Fretz, survivor, etc.,
against Ralph Stover, executor or
Charles Stover el al.; an appeal from
tin: Circuit Court for the Eastern Dis
trict of Virginia, has rendered a de
cision as follows:
“The controversy in this case grows !
out of a bond executed by Charles j
Stover to Fretz and wife, on tiie nth 1
day of April, 1801, for $2,300 18, pay
able on or before the first day of
March, 1883. The bond was executed
in Fauquier county, Virginia, where
Stover lived, and was secured by a
deed of trust on land in that county,
both of which were delivered to Sam
uel Clinton by Stover, on the day of
their date. The execution and deliv
ery of these obligations wpre in pur
suance of a settlement made in tiie
preceding month of February at War
renton. Virginia, by Fretz and Stover
of a long pending litigation. The
war of the rebellion ensued soon af
ter the settlement, and all communi
cation ceased, and, indeed, became
unlawful between Pennsylvania and
Virginia. After the war had closed,
on inquiry it was found that Stover, a
short time before the bond matured
and in satisfaction of it, had paid to
Chilton Virginia bank notes and Con
federate paper at their nominal or
COLUMBUS, GA., FRIDAY, JULY 10, 1875.
par value, and got possession of the
bond or deed of trust. Naturally,
Frotz ami wife wero dissatisfied with
these proceedings, and in repudia
tion of them tiled their bill in chan
cery to sot up tho deed of trust and
have itenforeod, on tho ground that
Chilton had no authority to reoeivo
payment in such paper, nor Stover
the right to make it. The bill charges
actual fraud between Chilton and
Stover, in this: that Stover, taking
advantage of Chilton’s great pecuni
ary necessities, induced him to re
ceive tho paper at par in payment and
discharge of tho bond.
“Stover tiled his answer denying
that, these payments were the result
of nil unlawful and fraudulent com
bination between the respondent and
Chilton. He insists, however, that
they wero in law a full discharge and
satisfaction of tho debt and trust
deed; but, if this wero not. so, that,
to tho extent of the compensation
duo by Frotz and wife to Chilton for
professional services, lie should not
be compelled to pay a second time.
“We are brought directly to tho
question whether the payments by
Charles Stover to Samuel Chilton
were, under tho circumstances sur
rounding the parties, of any validity.
The decision is that tho instructions
given to Chilton by his client were
not applicable to a state of war, and
that his settlement for money current,
in tin' Confederacy was void, and
that Stover hail no right to discharge
the debt in anything but legal money
of tho United States.”
Sir. Justice Davis delivered the
opinion of the Court.

NAPOLEON STOCK RISING.
Versailles, July 15. ltouher in Lis
speech yesterday said lie asked to de
fend the dead Emperor against ca
lumny. The Legitimists and Orlean
ists after 1830 and 1848, in tho same
way, sought to defend their respec
tive sovereigns. Hore the Legitimists
and Orleans Deputies loudly protes
ted against the comparison of their
Kings with Napoleon 111, and the
tumult was indiseribable. M. Gam
betta shouted, “the blood of tho 2d of
December and you.” M. ltouher re
suming denied t hat tho Bonapartists
had tried to corrupt the army or had
intrigued with the Socialists and
Communists. He said: Your object,
is to obtain a renewal of tho vote
overthrowing tho Empire. We will
give you no pretext for such a step.
Wo will respect tho Republican Con
stitution, but the Republic is the re
sult of an ephemeral compromise of
Radicals and Orleanists. The Le
gitimists centre their hopes on the
revision of tho Constitution. The
Bonapartists exercise the same right
to hope.

TEXAS.
Washington, July 15. -The July re
turns to the Department of Agricul
ture are unusually full, showing an
improvement of the cotton crop dur
ing June iri all the cotton States ex
cept Texas. The State averages are
as follows:
North Carolina, 95 —an improve
ment of 3 per cent.; South Carolina,
99-a per cent.; Georgia, 97—6 per
cent,; Florida, 101—7 per cent. Al
abama, 102—1 per cent.; Mississippi,
103—3 per cent.; Louisiana, 105—10
per cent.; Texas, 93 a decline of 3
per cent.; Arkansas, 101 improved
14 per cent.; Tennessee, 109—10 per
cent.
Some portions of the cotton area
were affected with drought, which,
however, was less injurious to cot
ton than to other crops. Its injuries
wore mostly compensated by the op
portunity it afforded for better work
ing of other crops. In Texas cut
worms, caterpillars and grasshoppers
were injurious in some localities. A
few isolated reports also mention
cotton lice, but insect depredations
so far have not affected the crop to
an extent worth estimating.

An Editor and a Printer Take a Mini.
Branchville, S. C., July 15.—A
shooting affair occurred here this
morning between 1 and 2 o’clock be
tween J. Felder Meyors, editor of the
Blackvillo Sun, and his printer and
partner, Samuel Hall. It soems that
the quarrel first originated by a dis
pute in regard to money matters.
Hall, while passing hero last night
with his family on liis way to Blaek
ville, was seen by Meyers, who at
once attacked him and attempted to
pull him from his wife, and succeed
ed. Hall drew Lis pistol, a derringer,
and shot Meyers in the thigh, inflict
ing a dangerous wound. Hall then
ran, and Moyers drew his pistol and
fired, missing Hall, lint striking a
colored man, who was standing near,
below the left knee, causing a serious
though not mortal wound. Meyers is
hero at presont with his mother, who
resides in tliis town. No attempt as
yet has been made to arrest Hall.
The HerelH on Hcerlicr.
New York, July 15. -The Herald ed
itorially deprecates tho demonstra
tions on Beecher, by his friends, since
the ending of tho trial, and says their
efforts to present him as a victim of
wanton conspiracy do him infinite
harm. It compels us to say that
Beecher, judged by his written and
spoken record, is an unworthy preach
er of the Gospel. Tho Beecher of old
days is dead; lie died under tho pen
and pistol of Frank Moulton, when
he signed that letter of contrition.
This Beecher, whose speeches we
read, is only a phantom who hannts
Plymouth Church as a ghost of earn
est haunts tho Castle of Elsinorea.
There will boa few faithful watchers
to listen to his oracles, but the ma
jority is gone. The crown is tarnish
ed, the sceptre broken, glory past is
inured, and the highest office which
even love can bestow is to remember
him only as he lived, and turn in sor
row and shame from the unwliole
somo apparition which bears his
name.

American Cyclopaedia.
New Revised Edition.
Entirely rewritten by the ablest writes* on every
subject. Printed from new type, aud illus
trated with Several Thousaud Engravings
and Maps.
Tho work originally published under the title
of The New American Cyclopedia was com
pleted in 1803, siuco which time the wide circula
tion which it has attained in all parts of the
United States, and the signal developments which
havo taken place in every branch of science, lit
erature and art, have induced the editors aud
publishers to submit it to an exact and thorough
revision, ami to issue anew edition entitled The
American Cyclopedia.
Within tho laat ton years the progress of dis
covery in every department ol" knowledge has
made anew work of reference an Imperative
want.
The movoment of political affairs has kept pace
with the diacoveriea of acience, and their lruitiu
application to tho industrial and useful arts and
the convenience aud 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 ut it height when tho liihl volume of
the old work appeared, has happily been ended,
and anew course of commercial aud industrial
activity lias been commenced.
Largo accessions to our geographical knowl
edge havo been made by tlio 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 are in every one’s mouth, and
of whoae lives every one is curious to know the
particulars. Great battles havo been fought and
important sieges maintained, of which the de
tails are as yet preserved only in the newspapers
or in the transient publications of the day, but
which ought now to take their place in perma
nent and authentic history.
lu preparing the present edition for the press,
it has accordingly been the aim of the editors to
bring down the information to the latest possi
ble dates, aud to furnish an accurate account of
the most recent discoveries In science, of every
fresh production in literature, aud of the newest
inventions in the practical arts, as well as to give
a succinct and original record of tho progress of
political and historical events.
Tho work has been begun after long and care
ful preliminary labor, aud with tho most ample
resources lor carrying it on to a successful term
ination.
None of tho original stereotype plates havo
been used, but every page has been printed on
new type, forming in fact a now Cyclopedia, with
the same plan and compass us its predecessor,
hut with a far greater pecuniary expenditure,
and with such improvements in its composition
as have boon suggested by longer experience and
enlarged knowledge.
The illustrations which aro introduced for the
first time in the present edition have been added
not for the salco of pictorial effect, but to give
greater lucidity aud force to tho explanations in
the text. They embrace all branches of science
and of natural history, and depict tho most
famous and remarkable features of scenery,
architecture and art, as well as tho various pro
cesses of mechanics aud manufactures.
Although intruded for instruction rather than
umbelishment, no pains havo been spared to in
sure their artistic excellence; the cost of their
execution is enormous, and it is believed they
will find a welcome reception as an admirable
feature of tho Cyelopiedia, 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 B<K) pages, fully illustrated with several
thousand Wood Engravings, and with numerous
colored Lithographic Maps.

THE SUN.
DAILY AND WEEKLY TOR 1875,
The approach of the Presidential election gives
unusual importance to tko events and develop
ments of 1875. Wo shall endeavor to describe
them fully, 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. Wo shall
not only endeavor to keep it fully up to the old
standard, but to improve and add to its variety
and power.
THEW EEKLY SUN will continue to boa thor
ough newspuper. All the news of the day will bo
found iu it, condensed when unimportant, at
full length when of moment, and always, we
trust, treated in a clear. Interesting and instruct
ive manner.
It is our aim to make the Weekly Sun the bCBt
family newspaper in the world. It will be full of
entertaining and appropriate reading of every
sort, but will print nothing to offend the most
scrupulous and delicate taste. It will always
contain the moßt interesting stories and ro
mances of the day, carefully selected and legibly
printed.
The Agricultural Department is a prominent
feature in the Weekly Sun, and its articles Will
always bo found fresh and useful to the farmer.
The number of men independent in politicand
especially. It belongs to no party, and obeys no
dictation, contending fur 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 knave* and seeks no favors from their
supporters.
The markets of every kind au<l the fashions
are regularly reported.
The price of the WEEKLY HUN 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, wo are not able to make any dis
count or allow any premium to friends who may
niako special efforts to extend its circulation.
Under the new law, which requires payment of
postage in advance, one 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 tho Weekly Sun at this
rate. Any one who sends ono dollar and twenty
cents will get tho paper, postpaid for one year.
We have no traveling ngents.
TIIE WEEKLY SUN—Eight pages, 56 c
Only $1.20 a year, postage prepaid. No di

THE DAILY SUN—A largo four-page newspaper
of twenty-eight columns. Daily circulation over
120,000. All tho news for 2 cents. Subscription,

MALARIA!
Read, Reflect end Act.
If one grain of Vaccine Virus, taken from tha
cow’s udder and kept dry for years, then mois
tened, and the keenest point of a Lancet dipped
in it and drawn goutly on the arm. so as not to
draw tho blood, will ro impregnate aud change
tho entire system as to proven* tho party so vac
cinated from taking tho most loathsome of dis
eases (smalt pox) for an entire life; again, if the
Celebrated Eucalyptus tree will change an uniu
hubitablr malarial district into a healthy, salu
brious clime, by simply absorbing from the at
mosphere tho poison malaria, why will not the
proper remedy, properly applied, neutralize and
destroy the poison, known as malaria, and thus
enable parties to inhabit malarial districts with
impunity? 0
We claim that there is such a remedy, and that
we have prepared it, and applied it, aud proved
it in our Anti-malarial or Euchymial Belt—and
that persons who will wear this Belt may inhabit
tho worst malarial districts without tho fear of
having any diseases arising from malaria; such an
Chills and Fever, Billions or Intermittent Fever.
Yellow Fever, Jaundice, Enlarged Liver and
Spleen, Indigestion, Constipation aud Hem
orrhoids, antf that it will cure all the above dis
cuses, except the worst cases of Billions and Yel
low Fever.
This is called an Anti-nmlarial or Euchymial
Belt, as it corrects the humors of tbe uody and
produces a healthy action, invigorating tho sys
tem, ami thus enabling it to por.orm its various
duties without fearing the effects of malaria iu
the least.
It has been tried iu thousands of eases without
a failure.
They can be obtained trora tho proprietors iu
any quantity at the Powell Building, junction of
Broad and Peachtree streets, Atlanta, Ga.
Price for a single Belt $3, or $5 with a guaran
tee that it will cure or the money refunded.
N. B.—-None genuine without tho trade mark
is stamped upon them.

Atlanta, Ga., June 5, 1875.
Messrs. Love k Willson: Gentlemen—ln April
last I was taken sick with regular Fever and
Ague, having it every alternate day. After it had
run on me for two weeks, I was induced to try
one of your Anti-malariul belts; so I discarded all
medicine, and simply wore one of your Belts, as
directed, and my Ague became lighter each suc
cessive time thereafter for some throe or four
times, when it left mo entirely, with a good appe
tite ami clear skin; and in future, if I should over
have a Chill or Ague,l would want one of your Pads,
and no physic. Wishing everybody that may bo
so unfortunate as to havo Chills aud Fever may
bo fortunate enough to get one of your Belts,
I am, respectfully, etc.,
W. J. Wilson.

Dus. Love k Willson :
Ou tho first day of December last I was taken
with Chills and Fever in Thomasville, Southwes
tern Ga., aud was treated for the same by three
eminent physicians who were able to stop it only
for a few days at a time. It made such inroads
ou my constitution that my physician pronoun
ced mo to be in the first stages of consumption,
wh en I accidentally met up with Drs. Love A Will
sou’s Anti-malarial Belt, which has entirely cured
mo. I have had but one chill since, and that was
the first day after putting it on. lam now iu as
good health us I ever was iu my lile, and think
this Belt a God-send to the afflicted.

Cannon House, Atlanta, Ga., June 4,1875.
Some nine years ago I contracted malaria in
Savannah, Ga., from which I havo suffered, at
times, ever since, until I met up with Drs. Love A
Willson’s Anti-malarial Belt some three months
ago. 1 havo worn it continually, and have had no
chill since, and find my general health, which
has been poor, much improved. I would recom
mend it to others Buffering with malaria.

and other remedies, and that they failod till they

Chills or Fever, and they recommend them to ev
