THK DAILY TIMES, CiiliinibiM, da.. HATt’RDAY AOOOBT 14.J8T5. fka*. .* fovi v.ne, , 11. vril.l.lAM*. I LARGEST DAILY CIRCULATION M Cllt ai)l Wi.1M.r1.., A CtKKAT MWTAHF. 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.” " 1 This editor of the Ukiuh (Oal.) 7Vm (M-rat. having evidently suggested that there were other vocations more suit able for a woman than editing a news paper during a political campaign, Mrs. Belie Lynch, of the Ukiuh Die paWt, thus annihilates him : “If only men are to tight the battle of this oamiiaign, the editor of the Demmrat had better put on a cheeked apron, get him a hank of yarn and some knitting needles, and a pair of brass mounted spectacles, and retire from the stormy conflict.” The project of connecting England with France, by means of a subtern nean tunnel between Dover and Ca lais, is being revived, with a prospect of success. BishopQcintakd has gone to Eu rope to get help for the University of the South, at Sewanee, Tennessee. 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. • ♦ • Carl Schurz will return to America by the first of October. 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. ijitsia Constitutionalist. “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.” —The Hamilton Visitor says: We had a heavy min last Monday, ac companied by a strong wind, sharp lightning, and a little hail. We learn that Judge Hudson had some trees and lencing blown down, but have heard of no further damage. SUPREME COURT OF GEORGIA, July Term, 1N75. Chattahoochee Olrotilt.
