Hon. Hooh McCulloch, late Secre
tary of the Treasury, says “nobody
would be boiiefltted by an expansion
of the currency except the debtor
class.” He Is good authority, and if
he is right tho South and West should

A lady not many miles from Coluoi

she had not been ablo to sleep the
night before, but tossed from one
sideof tho bed to theother, thinking
bow she could raise enough money
to pay a bill she owed. A young gen
tleman present, remarked she had
done wrong, ami not to toss any
more, but let the fellow she owed do
some of the “tossing,” thinking how
ho could collect his bill. That Is a
new view of the situation, and may
not prove a bad idea to the weary
debtor.

from the West, who should settle in

Crop*.
From information received from
parties who have made extensive
tours through this section, we are
Kitlstled that the recent rains have
been general and have done much
good. They were, however, too late
to Insure a good corn crop; in very
many neighborhoods not more than
a half crop is possible—a full yield
no whore.
Respecting cotton, our information
is that in bottom lands, where not
very stiff, the plant is doing well.
Red (mulatto) lands have suffered
above all others, and under no cir
eumstanees will make a crop. Grey
lands with a good sub-soil, appear to
bo doing better.
In oonelualon we will say that while
we do not concur with our exchanges
'in the belief that cotton has sustain
ed no material damage from the
drought, we vet think it jxwrtMe a
fair crop may be made, assuming
very favorable seasons, a late fall,
and no oaterplllnrs. We must hope
for a good top crop; the middle crop,
generally speaking, lias been lost.
Peas and potatoes have greatly
improved.
Avery curious ease has been dis
covered at the Treasury De|wrt merit
by the examination of some old ac
counts. A few days ago an officer of
the War Department received notice
from the Treasury that there was a
balauce of ♦1,600 in his favor on on
old account, The officer know no
such balance was due him, and caus
ed an examination of the origin of
the credit to be made. The discov
ery was then made that by an error
in the accounting many years ago
this sum had been deducted from the
account of an officer in another de
part men t, where it probably belong
ed, and credited to this officer iu the
War Dei>artiuent. This discovery
explains a very lamentable suicide,
which occurred about tho time that
the original error was made. The of
lleer from whose account this amount
was wrongfully deducted was charged
with a defalcation of that sum. He
was not ablo to prove his innocence
and took Ids own life. The accounts
are said to clearly show that the sui
cide is due to the criminal error of
some clerk in the war days.
THE FITIIE OF ( OLI Jini*.
OUll OPPORTUNITY--A FEASIBLE PLAN.
We noticed a few days ago t hat the
round trip rate from Atlanta to New
York was $45. Tills fact has occa
sioned somo relleetions which tuke
this drift. From Atlanta the distance
to Savannah is 291 miles; to Charles
ton 308 miles; to Norfolk Ml miles.
A ticket to Now York and return by j
I either route Is ♦c;. From Columbus j
I toSavuiiiiah tho distance is less than
| any of the above mentioned routes,
say 290 miles. Yet the price of a|
round trip ticket is S4O. Nearly ten
per cent, greater than the Atlanta
rate. Thus it will always be until
wo liiiish the North & South Road.
No place can flourish and freshen
under a monopoly. It matters not
whether the power which holds Co
lumbus by land and by water Is gen
erous oruot. Tlio result is inevita
ble. Last season Atlanta shipped j
cotton to Now York at fit) cents per
hundred, while Columbus paid $1.20.
Is it st range to bo wondered at that
Atlanta increased its receipts in two
years 50,000 bales per annum? At
the same time the wholesale mer
chants ofthatbusy place were paying
sl.lO per hundred on first class freight
which reached our dealers at $2.00.
Without an outlet Columbus can
never enjoy such advantages, but
must quietly take its place us a way
station on tho road toOpellka, while
on the other hand all points enjoying
competition will always secure low
rates, all the “pools” in Christendom
to tho contrary notwithstanding.
The question naturally arises with
an all absorbing interest., how can
Columbus secure the competition so
absolutely essential to its business
success andgrowth ? Woanswer un
hesitatingly by tho completion of the
North South Road, and by this
means alone eun we even hope for re
lief. We can truthfully add that our
commercial existence itself depends
upon the success of this scheme, and '
wo warn all interested in Columbus,
that when this opportunity is gone
another generation will pass away
before another plan of relief Js even
talked about, much less consummat
ed. We are eondous of a wonderful
change of sentiment in the communi
ty on the subject, A merchant, who
opposed the road as an original
proposition, was called upon a few
days ago to pay s2.ooper hundred on
a shipment from New York. He
came to our office to urge our best
efforts in tho movement to put tin; J'
North & South through to the West
Point Road, and when he said “it j
must be finished,” he but reflected !
the feelings of the mass of our Up-'
predjudicod arid thinking men.
The stock of Columbus in the Mo
bile & Girard Railroad liiih cost us, in
principal and interest, nearly three
quarters of a million of dollars, and'
although the stoek is worthless no j
man would have tho hardihood to
stand up and deny that it was not
money welt spent ; yt tho honetltA re
ceived ure not to be compared with
those to result from the outlet to our
com mere? und now trade to our mer
chants which tho North & South will
bring. Much energy has been ex
hausted upon this enterprise, und we j
hope to see every officer of the old or- j
gunizution live to hear the praise of;
tiieir honest efforts. We have never
heard but one criticism of their work,,
and that was, that, tho road was too
well built for a poor company. This :
was illustrated a short time ago when ■
upon a critical examination for re-1
pairs to ties and bridges, we learn j
but llfty new ties in twenty miles
wore required. Old railroad men
suggested, before tho inspection, one I
thousand as the probable number
needed, judging from the time they i
had been laid. In the face of the two
thousand dollars expended on re-;
pairs from freshet und burned cotton, ■
the earnings have accumulated over
and above expenses.
All of this is to the benellt of the j
purchasers; and right here wo state a ;
feasible plan of buying the road. One
hundred thousand in cash will no
doubt secure the entire property, and
it will go to the purchasers free of
every debt and complication. Fifty
men at S2,(XH) each can do this. Then
issue $400,000 of first mortgage bonds.
Lot. tho mortgage deed require the
trustees to see that the proceeds of
$300,000 goes to the last dollar upon
completion of road, and this amount
will finish it to tho West Point Hoad.
We believe owners can bid one j
line against the other and secure as
a subsidy as much as they invest. If
not, let tho remaining SIOO,IIOO of t lie
bonds be given to the owners with
first five years coupons cutoff. These j
bonds will sell, when under tho terms
or their issue $300,000 must go to the
enhancement of the security and be
! added to over half a million already
expended, and tho owners of the road
will only be required to wait for in
terest on their investment five years,
should tho road even fail to pay divi
dends before that time. But it will
pay. It is conceded to bo the best
unoccupied lino in the South. The
; company can ultimately sell the six
; teen miles of work near Rome should
it conclude not to go there.

Dalton, Ga., August 10, 1875.
“If we can not have political Inde- j
pendence lot us at least have finan
cial independence.”
Tims spoke Hon. Thos. Hardeman
this afternoon iu response to Dr*. !
Worrall und Rutherford, Represen
tatives of the British Co-operative I
Associations. The proceedings com- j
; me need with a formal introduction
of tho live British Representatives,
which was followed by speeches from
I thltoe of them. Those of IJrs. Wor
rall and Rutherford were received
with enthusiastic applause. The for
mer is one of tlio finest orators we
ever heard, and his commanding
tones and iiersuasive manner were
decidedly appreciated by his au
dience. The latter, though not so
eloquent, was oqunity effective in Ills
address, at times convulsing the au
dience with laughter by his wit.
I Each of them advocated not
I only Direct Trade, but Free Trade, 1
and each Illustrated the advantages
of a cordial co-operation with the
500,(5K) British members of the Co-op- j
erutive Unions. Dr. Rutherford by
cogent arguments reasoned that pro-!
tectlon was a fallacy designed to pro
tect the few at the expense of the;
many. Ho said that no manufacture ;
which required protection, was a
good thing for tho country, and stated
that tlio West and the Boutli were
mutually interested iu the abolition
of all protective tariffs.
Gov. Brown'arose iu response to
urgent appeals from the Convention, 1
and in bis clear, forcible, easy man
ner, advocated the appointment of u j
committee to enquire into and report
upon tho most feasible,and most rap
id plan of carrying out tlie desired
scheme of eo-operatlon.
Col. Hardeman, Gen. Colquitt. Dr. I
Tuckeraud the venerable Mark A.
Cooper each miulo (ieeehi“s tending
to the same result. The Convention
was very harmonious, and promises
to bo one of unusual interest.
Your correspondent was introduced |
to Dr. Rutherford and several of the j
delegates from England, and con
versed at. length with them. They;
seem impressed with the idea that it
is u bad poliey for the South to advo-!
cate the establishment of manufac
tunes, saying that England could fur
nish us with the manufactured goods
cheaper than we could possibly make
them, and tliaiall our energies should j
bo turned towards cotton production
as soon as Free Trade could be estab
lished. Tills proposition we know
will not hold, but on tho contrary
would perpelunto our present depen
dent condition. We contended, how-;
ever, that the issue was not one of
much moment, so far as cotton manu
facture was concerned, as we could
certainly manufacture cotton goods
cheaper than England could ever do,
if the protective tnriffwns abolished, j
Though strongly fixed in their opin- 1
ions, we trust that the result of their
conference with our State Agrieultur- ;
al Society may lead to tlio establish-1
meat speedily of Direct Trade.

A Court 1,(1110 1 ears Old Ciffird It*
floor* Forever.
On July fith an august, and ancient
tribunal, the most so of any save the
“High Court of Parliament,” virtual- i
lv ceased to exist. On that day tho;
Court of Queen’s Bench, which repre
sents a tribunal held before the King
at least a thousand years ago, sat for
1 the last, time, and will probably never j
sit again. It is a curious circuit!- j
| stanoe that, reckoning from the no
i cession of Alfred, in 871 the earliest
I date at which such a jurisdiction can
Ibo shown to have been exercised to
; the year 1870, when the original of
i the judicature act which abolished it
| was Introduced, just one thousand
i years should have elapsed. To Kir
Alexander Cockburn, certainly in
I many respects not, tho least dislin
■ guished of the series, belongs the
I melancholy distinction of being the
! last Lord Chief Justice of England.
I The jurisdiction of the court, it is
true, is preserved by the judicature :
; act, and is vested in a division of the i
j high court of judicature. And its i>e
euliar jurisdiction is vested in that
j division exclusively. But us that
great court, which has existed ever
since the conquest ns a distinct and
separate tribunal, with that high and
lofty jurisdiction which could origi
nally only be exercised by the King
in person, and was so exercised since
the time or Alfred, as that great court
of tho King, inferior only to Parlio
mentment iu greatness aud dignity,
its history lias closed, it has, hojiv
i ever, a great history -a history of ten
i centuries ’ duration, closely connect*
! ed with the constitution of the couu
| try through a long succession ofages,
and associated with a series of great
; names and historic, of tragic, events.
