of it the drouth still continue* and
the crops are suffering terribly. Even
where the mins have fallen the great
damage of the recent intense heat
and drouth vyill be only partially re
paired, as much of the corn was al
ready parched to a crisp and the cot
ton had already shed a vast amount
of its fruit. The late rains will prp

little more than that.
Europe maintains standing armies
and navies aggregating six millions
of men, who, with ships, forts, ar
maments and armories, required for
equipment, subsistence and arms
about one thousand dollars each per
annum, or a total of $6,000,000,000.
These six million of armed idler* jiati
issrize the'countries which maintain
them. The general prosperity de
mands that this military incubus
should be removed or lessened to the
utmost possible extent consistent
with safety. Toget rid of this load is
the universal interest of the proprie
tary aDd industrial classes, who
ought, therefore, to be profoundly
averse to war.

Tho speech of General Ewing on
the money question, delivered last
Saturday, at fronton, 0., is the grout
speech of the Ohio campaign. It is
[lie most useful us well as the most
splendid contribution to tho political
debates of t lie day that lias been made,
and it will be read and reread during
tho Presidential campaign of lH7i>.
The issue on the money question is
staled by Getiral Ewing us follows:
Tho Republicans say tho moneyed
class shall determine tile proper vol
ume of the currency ; the Democracy
say tlic people shall determine it.
They say the business of the people
shall conform to sueu quantity of
currency us the banks can keep afloat
redeemable in gold; the Democracy
say tho people shall determine it.
They say the people’s money shall
be Issued by pet corporation ; wo say
it shall be issued by the Republic.
They say t he people shall pay inter
est on tlfe whole currency to the
banks; wo Say the whole currency
ahull be part of the debt bearing no
interest.
They say the interest hearing debt
shall bo inereoeeq over four hundred
millions to buy up and destroy the
greenbacks and fractional currency ;
we say it shall lie reduced over throe
hundred millions by substituting
greenbacks for national bank notes.
Tho verdict of the people of Ohio
on these issues, rendered after full
discussion, will, I believe, bo ratified
by the judgment of the American
people. 1 have no fear of the result.
If it be shown that the policy of the
Democracy involves repudiation or a
wild scheme of imposture, t.lio intel
ligent, and conservative masses of our
State will condemn it without instruc
tions from Wail street. But if it shall
appear to be consistent with national
honor, mid demanded by the inter
ests of the people, the truculent bil
lingsgate with which it has been as
sailed will only emphasize the popu
lar verdict in its favor.
The whole issue on this question is
involved in the act of January 14,
1H75, entitled "An act to provide for
the resumption of specie payments.”
It is in substance as follows;
1. That the forty-eight millions of
dollars of fractional currency then
outstanding shall, "as rapidly us
practicable, bo redeemed with silver
and destroyed.”
2. That the national banks, now or
hereafter established, may increase
their currency, without limit of ag
gregate amount, by deposit of United
States bonds as security, under exist
ing laws.
;i. As each vPM of new bank money
is issued, SSJ of greenback* shall bo
redeemed ami withheld from circula
tion, until tli ■ three hundred and
eighty-two millions of dollars of
greenbacks, then outstanding, be re
duced to three hundred millions.
4. On and after the first of January,
1872, all the remaining greenbacks
shall lye redeemable on demand in
coin ;and, onco redeemed, shall not
be re-issued.
5. The Secretary of tho Treasury is
required to provide tho coin for those
redemptions, and authorized to sell
live per cent, gold bonds to buy tho
colli.
Wo can give only a few of the
strongest parts of his argument.
The gravest objection made to tho
Ohio Democracy is that it favors in
flation limited only by t.lio capacity
of the machine* for printing money.
To this evil Ewing replies in a way
which is unanswerable;
It is said the Ohio Democracy de
mand an issue of greenbacks, unlim
ited and illimitable ; and that an ex
cessive issue will sink their value,
ami bo in effect rupudiation.
But our platform prescribes a limit
—the requirements of business. Re
cently, in New York, a member of
(tongress not our Buckeye abroad,
Sant Cox—denounced our platform as
one of wild inflation, and in tho same,
breath declared that we already have
more greenbacks than the want of
trade demand. I answered that, if it
bo true we have more currency than
business requires our platform de
mands contraction -and therefore lie
should favor it.
Thoeleinents of our material growth
are thirty billions of property, and
the labor which by use of property
produces six billions of wealth an
nually about six-sevenths of which
product is consumed in living ex
| penses. The business of production j
and exchange is now done with sev- 1
!en hundred and forty millions of
i currency which is its life-blood,
j keeping afloat and discharging fifty
| times its sum of commercial transac
tions. We say inis body of business
shall have all the blood it needs for
i liealty action and growth. Either
I the wants of trad - must determine
j the limits of currency, or tho arbitra
ry limit of currency will determine
tire volume of trade. Which shall be
subordinate ? If we are wrong, tho
converse must bo true and the busi
ness lie cut. down to the dimensions
of tiie foreordained currency. It
were as sensible to cut down the busi
ness of our railway system to meet
the Capacity of uu urbitardy fixed
quantity of rolling stock, or to reduce
the acreage of crops in the country
by an arbitrary number of mowers
and threshers; or after the custom of
Chinese women, to limit the growth
of the foot to it prescribed size of a
shoe.
Upon another of the most vital
points of the money question the
Ohio platform is silent. Gen. Ewing
utters his own views in the most
clear and conclusive manner; wo j
refer to the convertibility of green- i
backs into bonds, and of bonds into
greenbacks:
How shall tiie volume of currency
| be adapted to the wants of the trade?
i That is a practical question not in is
i sue in this canvass. If the people
i declare it shall be done, the “how”
COLUMBUS, GA., SUNDAY, AUGUST l, 1875.
can be left to their representatives,
or to future popular inscussioh. I
believe, and for five years past have
advocated, Unit tho Government
should issue a bond bearing uu Inter
est little larger than the average mil
increase of wealth, Into which legiii
tenders may at any time be convert
ed, and which shall be itself convert
ed into legal tenders at the option ol
the holder. When currency becomes
source these bonds would be convert
od into money; and, when money
grows too plenty, tho bonds absorb
tho surplus; tho business of tho coun
try would thus determine and ob
tain for itself the amount of currency
necessary for its use, without arbi
trary interference, and it would nev
er be either glutted or starved; while
the low rate of interest on the inter
changeable bond would abate the
usury which is the bano of our social
system. This is one proposed meth
o'l of adjusting the quantity of cur
rency to the demands of business. It
inis not the sanction of either of the
great parties, but tins been indorsed
by the late Treasurer of the United
States, and by many of the most em
inent financiers, statesmen and busi
ness men of tho country, and is
strongly recommended by our expe
rience with our interest-bearing notes
about the close of the war, before
our home currency debt was made a
foreign gold debt, and the policy was
inaugurated of giving to the banks
eoutrol of the people’s money.

lIOOHEFORT AND d’caSS.VONAO HOLI
DAY, &0.
London, July 31.—Tho Timex re
ports that Henri Rochefort, on the
loth inst., sent a lettorto l’aul DeCos
sagnac, calling on him to come to
Geneva immediately with his sec
onds. Cause- a challenge on account
of certain articles in 1H72. DeOassng
unc replied with an excessively abu
sive letter, giving Rochefort a choice
of weapons, aud appointing Brice
Alexander, D. Wngrnn and Count
Harrison his seconds. M. M. .Perrine
and the Ordinary having consented
to act as Rochefort’s seconds, met
lltoso of M. DoC’assagnuc in Baris to
arrange tho time of the duel. They
claim t hat as their principal is tho in
sulted party, he has not only choice
of weapons but tho right to determine
the distance. They then demanded
that the men should meet with pis
tols, at a distance of live paces, and
shoot at tho word of command. M.
DeCassagnao’s seconds said those
wore simply murder, for when the
arms of tho combatants wore extend
ed tho muzzles of their weapons
would almost touch. AI. Rochefort’s
representatives refused to admit these
objections. They said their princi
pal, considering the importance of
tlic ease, had been particular about
the conditions. A friend of M. Do-
Cassagnac then proposed that the
distance, be thirty paces, each com
batant be allowed to advance live
steps after the word is given, the
time of firing to be optional, and the
shooting to continue until one of the
parties falls. Rochefort’s seconds
declined this proposition, and tho
matter rests there.
Tho JJaihj Nt’iex lias a dispatch stat
ing that an article has been drawn up
and signed by tho seconds of both
parties, declaring it impossible to
settle the conditions of the duel.

APPLETONS’
American Cyclopaedia.
New Revised Edition.
Entirely rewritten by the ablest writers on every
subject. Printed from new type and Illus
trated with Several Thousand Engravings j
and Maps.
The work originally published under the title
of The New American Cyclopedia was com
pleted in 1803. since which time tiie wide circula
tiMii winch it has attained in all part* ot the
United .States, and the signal developments which
hove taken place lu 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 The
American Cyclopaedia.
Within the last ten years thfi progress of dis
covery in every department of knowledge lias
made anew work of reference an imperative
wafct.
The movement of political affairs lias kept pace
with the discoveries of science, aud their fruitfu
application to the industrial aud useful arts and
the convenience and refinement of social life.
Great wars and consequent revolutions have oc
curred, involving national changes of peculiar
moment. Tho civil war ol our own country,
which was at its height when the last volume ot
the old work appeared, bus happily been ended,
and anew course of commercial and industrial
activity lias been commenced.
Largo accessions to our geographical knowl
edge have been made by tlio indefatigable ex
plorers of Africa.
The great political revolutions of the laHt de
cade, with the natural reßultxd' tho lapse of time,
have brought into public view a multitude of new
men, whose names aro iu every one’s mouth, aud
of whoso lives every one is curious to know the
particulars. Great battles have been fought and
important sieges maintained, of which tiie de
tails are us yet preserved only in the newspapers
nr in tho transient publications of the day, but
which ought now to take their place in perrna- j
ucut and authentic history.
In preparing the present edition f*>r the press,
it lias accordingly been the aim of the editors to
bring down the information to tho latest possi
ble dates, and to furnish an accurate account of
tho most recent discoveries iu science, of every
fresh production iu literature, and of tho newest
inventions in the practical arts, as well os to give
a succinct and original record of the progress of
political and historical eveuts.
The work has been begun after long and care
ful preliminary labor, ami with tiie most ample
resources for carrying it on to a successful term
ination.
None of tiie original stereotype plates have
been used, but every page has been printed on
new type, forming in fact anew Cyclopedia, with
the same plan uud compass as its predecessor,
but with a far greater pecuniary expenditure,
and with such improvements iu its composition
us have been 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 sake of pictorial effect, but to give
greater lucidity and force to the explanations in
the text. They embrace ull branches of science
and of natural history, and depict the most
famous and remarkable features ol scenery,
architecture and art, as well as the various pro
cesses of mechanics and manufactures.
Although intended for instruction rather than
embelishmont, 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 the Cyclopaedia, aud worthy of its
high character.
This work is sold to Subscribers only, payable
on delivery of each volume. It will be completed
in sixteen largo octavo volumes, each containing
about 8(H) pages, fully illustrated with several
thousand Wood Engravings, aud with numerous
colored Lithographic Maps.

MALARIA!
Read, Reflect and Act.
If one grain of Vaccine Virus, taken from the
cow’s udder and kept dry for years, theu mois
tened, aud the keenest point of a Lancet dipped
In it and drawn gently ou the arm, so aa not to
draw the blood, will so impregnate and change
the entire system as to prevent tho party so vac
cinated from taking the moat loathsome of dis
eases (small pox) for an entire life; again, if the
Celebrated Eucalyptus tree will change an unin
habitable malarial district into a healthy, salu
brious clime, by simply absorbing from tho at
mosphere the poißon malaria, why will not the
proper remedy, properly applied, neutralize and
destroy the poison, known as malaria, and thus
enable parties to inhabit malarial districtf with
impunity?
Wo claim that there is such a remedy, and that
we havo prepared it, and applied it, and proved
it in our Anti-malarial or Euchymial Belt—and
that persons who will wear this Belt may inhabit
the worst mularial districts without the fesr of
liaviug any diseases arising from malaria; such as
Chills and Fever, Billious or Intermittent Fever,
Yellow Fever, Jaundice, Enlarged Liver and
.Spleen, Indigestion, Constipation and Hem
orrhoids, aud that it will oure all the above dis
canes, except tho worst cases of Billious aud Yel
low Fever.
This is called an Anti-malarial or Euchymial
Belt, as it corrects the humors of the oody and
produces a healthy action, invigorating tho sys
tem, and thus enabling it to per.orm its various
duties without fearing the effects of malaria in
the toast.
It has been tried in thousands of cases without
a failure.
They can be obtained trom the proprietors in
any quantity at tho 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.

is stamped upon them.

Messrs. Love A 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-malarial bolts; ho 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 three or four
times, when it left mo entirely, with a goad appe
tite and clear skin; aud iu future, if I should ever
have a Chill or Ague, I would want one of your Pads,
aud no physic. Wishing everybody that may be
ho unfortunate as to have Chills and Fever may
be fortuuute enough to get one of your Belts,
I am, respectfully, etc.,
