Wn wore decidedly though sadly
impressed, l>y the telegraphic report
of the remarks made several days
ago at Poughkeepsie, New York, by
Gen. P. M. B. Young and Col. It. A.
Alston. They are quoted as saying
that if the North and Mouth had un
derstood each other formerly as well
us now, there would never Inter been n
war.
It maybe cruel and unkind to spoil
such line spread eagleunii, but every
candid, thinking and observing man
knows this Is all bosh. What these
gontlomen said was certainly occa
sioned by that grateful exuberance
of feeling, consequent upon an ex
hibition to them of local hospitality.
In the light of past events, such sen
timents could not have been the fruit
of quiet, matured, unimpassioned
thought. They would have been
vastly nearer the truth in its literal
form, had they said that if the sec
tions had before the war understood
ouch other as they do now, the South
would huve been lighting yeti Fight
ing from the mountain fastnesses,
from the obscurity of carves and rocks,
from unexplored jungles, and from
almost impenetrable swamps fight
ing with that desperation which rec
ognized the appalling fact, that if it
were ruin tocontinuo the conlilet, It
were greater rtflu to abandon it!
What arc the evidences that bring
these gentlemen to so eharituble and
hopeful a conclusion? Except to hang
our leaders and butcher our women
and children, what could the enemy
havo done that they leave left un
done ? What “hidden thunder,”
still chained In the vast store house
of hellish Northern invention, lias not
yet belched forth upon us V What re
finement of cruolty and cowardice
has not spent its force upon us, and
into what depth of humiliation iiave
wo not been plunged ? What odious
enactment lias been swept from the
statute book, and what material loss
has been, or gives promise of being
repaid ?
Oh I but there is such an era of good
feeling. When, pray, did it com
mence ? In what shape does it stiow
Itself? Why, Confederate soldiers
have been invited to the next re-un
ion of the Grand Army of the Kopub
11ci They huve never been allowed,
yea called upon to orate on Bunker
Hill, and the whole South is besought
to tako stock in the gusli of the Cen
tennial 1
Indeed! yes, Indeed! Our soldiers
havo been asked to anoint with oil,
and bow before the altar upon which
our hopes and prospects have been
sacrificed, to appease a Moloch of
envy and hate. Upon Bunker’s Hill
they have been permitted to drop
penitential tears for an honest at
tempt to preserve from ruin the prin
ciples It was reared to commemorate.
While, next year, it. would please tlie
victors for the South to forget the
irons that have burned into her very
soul, and raising her hands to shout,
"Great is Diana of the Ephesians!”
over the hundredth anniversary of a
Government which will have spent
the last decade of Its existence in
Inventing means of torture and sub
jects of degradation.
If these gentlemen had said there
was a brighter era dawning upon the
country, which was the legitimate re
sult, from the inevitable reaction that
follows persecution, wo would join
hands with them; but wo dissent
from the proposition, “If we had
known each other better there would
have been no war.” Wo know more
now, than wo over thought, of know
ing; for who ever dreamed, that the
Southern people would be persecuted
with the Enforcement act, the Civil
Bights bill, and other like legisla
tion ? Who over conjectured that
armed military would invade our Le
gislative halls, insult our citizens,
and retain in power men to rob our
coffers? We hope these things arc
past and wo believe they will cease;
but a closer acquaintance with the
North, Ims not heretofore developed
any relenting traits. We mean by
the North the Badical party North.
It is pretty clear now that Governor
Hendricks intends to throw his for
tunes with the inflation Democracy.
He has not said anything very spe
cific on the subject, but ills remarks
have a strong leaning to the side of
soft money. The Evansville rour hr
says no one should bo surprised to
find the Governor where lie is, since
ho has always opposed contraction.
It adds: “His record upon the finan
cial question has been clear, decided,
and consistent, from the first, audit
is unequivocally in favor of the posi
tion occupied by the people as against
the bondholding and banking inter
est of the country.”

I'.illlnrlHl Correspondence.
Daltok, Oa., August 11,1875.
The proceedings to-day were mark
ed by much Interest and many inter
esting incidents. Among these the
most interesting was the boautiful
address by Dr. Means, who, though
full of years, is replete with glowing
thoughts,and possesses a thorough
mastery of language. The veteran
octogenarian, Mnj. Mark A. Cooper,
replied to the speech of Dr. Means,
in which Hint gentleman presented
him with a gold badge in behalf of
the State Agricultural Society, which
lie founded in 1833. Maj. Cooper
gave a brief resume of ids life and
history, which seemed to interest the
English Delegation especially. His
stalwart figure and striking personel,
together with a delivery marked by
tlie courteous bow which preceded
and followed his address, and which
reminded one of the courteous old
gentleman now so fast disappearing,
must have removed the preconceived
opinions of the Englishmen that our
climate was enervating and tended
to prevent thorough physical devel
opment.
Mr. Butler, after repeated efforts,
finally got the attention of the au
dience by stating that there were
400,000 dogs in Georgia, and that he
was iti favor of dealing leniently with
them. He then proceeded to give a
description of the Agricultural und
Geological Bureaus of Georgia, for
the benefit of the British Delegation
particularly. He announced it as a
fact unprecedented in the history of
the South, if not of the Union, that u
delegation of foreigners had come to
the Convention of the farmers of a
State in order to ascertain the pro
ductions of the State and to tender
an offer of co-o]>oration. His remarks
were greeted with applause, but he
had few sympathizers, we think, on
the dog question.
Ex-Oov. Brown formally invited
the members of tho Convention to
take an excursion to Chattanooga on
Thursday morning. Owing to the
fact that this would necessitate the
abandonment of one of the most Im
portant days work of the Convention,
tlds proposition excited considerable
debate. It was very properly con
tended that it was Inappropriate and
Improper to adjourn tho Convention
before all the business before it had
been transacted, especially since the
farmers had had no good opportuni
ty of discussing practical questions.
The proposition was however carried,
although the Convention was very
nearly evenly divided.
The great difficulty in the way of
these semi-annual Conventions is the
haste which characterizes them and
the evident desire to make of the oc
casion a frolic, or “jamboree.” Many
of us do not object to recreations of
tills kind, but wc would prefer to see
people in convention assembled in
culcate tho old maxim, “work first
and play afterwarnds.”
It is evident tiiat an increasing in
terest is being manifested in the Stute
Agricultural Society. It lias done a
great deal, and is just on the verge of
what it is capable of accomplishing.
Wo hazard nothing in asserting that
it is a bettor looking body than the
Legislature and equally as orderly.
Gen. Colquitt, “our next Govern
or,” makes an excellent presiding
officer. Gen. Gordon and Governor
Smith were present to-day. Wo no
ticed several, perhaps four, Guber
natorial candidates during this ses
sion, each seeming to bo quite popu
lar with “the dear people.” It is
hard to suy who would make the
best Chief Magistrate where so many
worthy and competent, men desire
tho place. We believe Colquitt and
Hardeman to bo the most popular
candidates at present. Ex-Governor
Brown seems very popular with the
masses in this part of tho State. Are
ext ct'lare artem, and tho ways of po
liticians are past finding out. They
are all certainly very clever while
candidates. Itour next Governor ex
cels our present Governor, Georgia
will have more reason than ever to
congratulate herself. F. F.

Mississippi I'ailtlrs- -Minoplnx to Con
tiurr."
Under the above heading the Au
gusta Constitutionalist thus takes Mr.
Lamar, of Mississippi to task:
It, seems that Col. Lamar did not
havo unanimous support at the late
Mississippi Convention, though he
carried a very large majority of the
delegates with him. We learn that
Col. MeArdle, of the Vicksburg Her
ald, in unti-war days a Whig, but
now, tvs he declared himself, a thor
ough supporter of the pre-eminence ]
of the Caucasian race, protested vig
orously against the amalgamation
policy of securing voters. The report
goes that "he moved to strike out the j
word Conservative, saving he nevei
traveled under an alias, and never
would. No honorable man could do
so. He didn’t mean that the
people of Mississippi should travel
by the name of Jones when
he knew their name was Smith.
AH this folderol must stop. There
fore, he would wright his ticket
straight Democratic, and disregard
the hybrid alias Conservative He
was sustained by the delegates from
his own county, one of them assert
ing that tlie Democracy had lost
every contest by trying to conciliate
and pacify tlie negro.”
On the other hand, it is stated that
“Mr. Harris was frank enough to
avow that tho party was doomed un
less it could succeed in dividing the
colored vote. His Idea of the way to
get the negro out of polities was ‘to
put him plum through at once and
be done with him.’ ”
The eloquence and influence of La
mar, backed by tho anxiety of gentle
men who want votes for office and
are not squeamish about their origin
prevailed over MeArdle by a vote of
liiii to 31. Time will show which was
the wiser, if less eloquent man, La
mar or MeArdle. The Cincinnati
Gazette (Rep,) culls the movement of
Mississippi “Conservatives" the game
of "stooping to conquer.” In some
of the Southern States there has been
a deal of t his “stooping" ami precious
little valuable or satisfactory “con
quest,”
--That "swimming bee," between
Winn, of Savannah, and Dampsay
of New York, to come off on the 20th’
in the Savannah river, from the Cen
tral to the Gulf Bail road wharf, is
exciting attention.
Ilnw the Democrat* are Playing Into
the llml- of brant.
Thouinazlng succession of blunders
and follies by which the Democratic
party have so often thrown away vic
tory when it seemed within their
grasp bids fair to bo continued, In
1884 they nominated a war Democrat
on a peace platform, and forfeited all
their chances on the day the canvass
opened. In 1888 tho Ohio repudiu
tlonists, unable to carry Pendleton
through the Convention, forced the
nomination of Seymour to head off
Chase, and put him on a platform
which he had repudiated in advance,
with au associate on the ticket whose
then recent Brodhead letter was a
menaee to tear up the work of recon
struction and remand tho South to
chaos. In 1872 they perpetrated the
indescribable folly of putting at the
head of their ticket the foremost
champion of protection in the United
Suites, in contradiction to their free
I trade principles, and making the bit
terest revtler of tln-ir party Its nomi
nal chief. We will not predict what
the next step will be In this career of
self-stultification, their astounding
blunders in every Presidential elec
tion since 1885 would take off the edge
of wonder if the traditionary hard
money party of tho country should 1
aguin forfeit its prosfxscts, as it did |
in 1888, by the influence of a Western .
faction, and led by tin- Ohio Demo- 1
erats. Old Governor Allen, a noisy
bullion man in former days, lias gone ;
over to tlie Inflationists, ami even
Senator Thurman speaks with bated
breath. Among the Democratic
statesmen of Ohio none stuuds up
and denounces the platform, and if
the party carries tlie Ohio election
there will be no limit to tho aggres-!
sive boldness of its inflation wing, '
which will aspire to control Hie Na
tional Convention next year, and will
have influence enough to muzzel or
make Thurmans of all the hard
money candidates. A r . Y. Herald.
There is no doubt in the minds of
the people that the party lias made
some blunders. The blunders, how
ever, were made in a wild effort to
throw off tlie Badical yoke. If the
Herald would take a decided stand,
either for or against tlie Democracy,
itsin fluonceand wordsmightdosome
good. Tlie Democrats in Ohio are
waging a war in favor of inflation, be
cause inflation will benefit the West
and the South. The East is against
it, for tlie reason they are the creditor
class. We believe inflation, or rather
no further contraction is necessary
for us all, but we do not think tlie
question should enter the National
platform.

The United States Fish Commission
lias begun operations at tlie head wa
ters of the Sacramento river, Califor
nia, for the season of 1875. Last year,
nearly six million salmon eggs were
obtained from that place, and the ob
ject of the operations this year is the
collection of an equal number. The
salmon eggs are shipped East, and
are used for stocking Eastern rivers.
The salmon are reported to be very
abundant this season in t lie McCloud
river, where the breeding station is
established.

The following authentic incidentl
Indicates tho spirit with which politi
cal contests were carried on in Ten
nessee twenty years ago:
Andrew Johnson and Meredith I’.
Gentry, in 1855, were the opposing
candidates for Governor of Tenues- !
see. The leading organ of the Dem
ocratic party of the State, ut that
time, was edited by E. (1. Eastman,
who possessed a happy faculty for
stirring up the bile or political oppo
nents. We make this statement in
order that what follows may be thor
oughly understood. The contest be
tween the parties was a fierce ono,
but Johnson triumphed. Gentry
bowed gracefully to the will of the
people and retired to liis home in
Bedford county.
Two enthusiastic friends. Col. Matt
Martin and Itev. William U. Brown
low, soon paid him a visit. Tlie lat
ter is not wholly unknown to fame.
They tarried several days, and when
they were übout to depart, Gentry,
taking down a Bible and hymn book,
said, ”1 never permit a distinguished
divine to visit my house and leave ;
without saying prayers for the family |
and tlie neighborhood. Browuloiv,
you must pray.” The invitation was j
accepted, and after a chapter in the
Bible was read and a hymn sung, they
all got down on their knees. Among
the petitions that Browniow offered
up was tills one: “May the Lord send
a beam of grace upon the heart of j
Andrew Johnson and his man East
man.” Gentry at once sprang to his
feet and exclaimed in a loud voice,
">Stop. Browniow, stop I If that pe
tition is answered the plan of salva
tion will bo exhausted, and tlie bal
ance of us will he damned!”

Ir is gratifying to see the press of
the State and its correspondents ven
tilating tlie disgraceful treatment of
lunatics. It is well known that they
are inhumanly eroweded into the
rooms and hulls of the building at
MUledgeville; that it lias several
hundred more than it can comforta
bly and deently accommodate, whilst
many ot hers are held in confinement j
in felon'seel Is of county jails, because
there is no place else to put them.
The only solution of the whole mut
ter is to build a second asylum, it,.
must be done. Wo demand it in the
name of humanity. Hud any one,
told us that the rieli and prosperous
State of Georgia was compel cut to
thus treat her unfortunate inhabi
tants, we would have denied it. An.

“ASln Iti'ilrilllitlon."
Apropos of the present financial
wrangle, a letter to the Cincinnati
Commercial revives the following
story:
l was reminded of a story which
Robert Toombs, of Georgia, tells. It
has been related once In the Commer
eial, hut will bear repeating. During
the financial crisis of 1857 a country
man came to Toombs with a tale of
distress. “We must have more
money,” he said “or we are ruined.”
“How in tho devil are you going to
get more money?” asked the profane
Toombs.
“Let. the State Bank print it,” re
plied the countryman.
“Well, when that’s gone what will
you do?” asked Toombs,
j “Let the bank print more," replied
the countryman, who had ideas of
his own on finance.
“But how is all this money to he re
deemed?” asked Toombs, thinking
lie had his rural friend cornered at
last.
‘That’s the point,” answered the
countryman; “you see I’m agin re
demption.”
