MaMachumetti expeote the present census to show that she hus 1,700,1KK) Inhabitants. Ttm total drive of Texas cattle last year was 166,000 head. It wil l>c lar ger this year. The people of Williamson county, 111., ure following the example of those in Franklin cotwty, nnd are or ganizing eomtmnies of armed men for the suppression of outlawry. An exchungo says the trade In mo lasses Is rupldly being diverted from New York and other northern ports, and concentrating at Pblladelpbla and Baltimore. The Quaker City gains fastest. We want a Civil Damage Liquor law to be passed at the next session of the Legislature, and enforced with rigid impartiality. Then will the ne cessity for prohibitory, license, and local option laws cease to trouble. An Unpleasant Troth.— We un told of a store in this city which has been rented since the war for S3,S(XJ ]>cr annum ;it now rents for sHrtt>. It is time that our merchants take hold this matter and devise some means to remedy It. A Pleasant Announcement. Wo arc informed that a gentleman lias moved hie family from Troy, Ala., to this city in order to educate four daughters at the Columbus Female College. Two months ago our wisest old men pronounced the college scheme to be impracticable. Mr. Barter, of the Chicago Staatx '/,titling, announces that that paper will support Gen. Grant on a hard money platform against any candi date on a rag-money platform. If there are two hard-money candidates they will support the one opposing tlie Kopublicun party. Mas. Scott Siudons lias distin guished herself as a rifle shot in the presence of Sir Edward Green, the local gentry and the officers and men of the respective corps, Mrs. Mid dens took a Martini-Henry rifle and llrcd at the target, making a “bull’s eye” the first time nnd a "centre” with tier second shot. The Atlanta Herald, with charac teristic enterprise, comes to us in a new eight-puge form. Its appearance is much improved and evinces a de termination to stop at no outlay in order to excel all local opposition. It publishes a weekly, semi-weekly, daily morniug and evening papers, and ought to prosper. • • The Philadelphia Pre stands in isolated disgrace among tho journals of the country in commenting unfa vorably upon ex-Presidont. Davis’ let ter. It pronounces the letter "as in tensely egotistical us it is imperti nent.” The good sense of the North ern people will not allow them to share this sentiment. Tub groat political contest of 1832 wits fought chiefly on the currency question; ami the greater political contest of 187 H wo four will be decided upon that Issue also. The New York World and Cincinnati Enquirer are to bo blamed {or this. We hope the greater issue of overcoming Radical usurpations will yet becotno the chief element in the approaching conflict. Mu. W ells publishes in the X. T. IIDrM an admirable letter, which wo will givo our readers shortly. This letter tnrows a clear and steady light on two questions; first, whether our custom-house taxation should bo for revenue only, ..leaving trade free; second, whether a necessity of reform so imperious and persistent can be overlooked by a party which is about asking the people to commit to them tlie conduct of the public business. W can’t understand why agricul tural fairs select politicians and law yers to deliver their addresses for them. The fanning interests in the South embrace our best and most in telligent men, and we think such ad dresses should be delivered by prac tical farmers who live on their plan tations. It would be a good thing if politicians could be kept out of our agricultural conventions any way. What is to prevent the establish ment of a co-operative cotton factory here, to be owned chiefly by opera tives and laboring men? If our peo ple had conversed with Dr. Ruther ford, of the English delegation, rep resenting the co-operative societies of Oreat Britain, they would bo oon \ ineed that the plan Is entirely feasi ble. It is the best kind of a savings bank, Remember that Mr. Browne only paid $20,000 for his flourishing mill, now spinning No. 20 yarn in great quantities daily. Tub monopolies now oppressing Columbus force us to pay $8 a ton for cool. Montgomery, which is not as eutorprisiug as Columbus, gets coal for $4 73 per ton. The apathy of our people is truly amazing. Milledgc ville, even, is not so discriminated against ns is Columbus. Now, the question Is if a man had invested #OOO.OOO In an enterprise, aud owing to the concentrated capital of u huge corporation this amount of $600,000 would yield no revenue unless it was reinforced by additional capital, would not this individual contrive some mentis to raise the necessary additional amount ? En passant, wo will state that we heard yesterday that the Central Railroad intended to move its shops from Columbus. The suti(liern Parinr Railroad. With regard to the Southern Pueiflc Railroad the Petersburg Nttr* has the following suggestions: That tlie Incorporators now in Scott's bill be dropped, and that in lieu of them Congress ahull authorize tho Governors or Legislatures of the States of Virginia, North and South Carolina, Georgia, Tennessee, Ala bama, Louisiana, Arkansas and Texas, each, appoint three repre sentative men who shall constitute a board of commissioners with full power to urrungo for the construction of this work, the disbursements of the funds and its control after construction. That the guugu of tho work he fixed at live feet to conform to tlie ruling guugo of the Southern railway system. That its main line isi confined to the thirty second parallel, and that no lines run ning north or northeast from any point west of Marshall, Texas, be al lowed to consolidate with the main corporation. That the main line may be extended by consolidation, purchase or otherwise, to the oust liank of tlie Mississippi river, at or near Memphis, and tfxat tho Missis sippi river he bridged at the point of crossing. To effect this latter and most important object, tho aid al ready asked for will be sufficient, and a corporation organized on tho basis proposed, with Its bonds endorsed by the United States, can have no diffi culty in raising tho necessary funds or in finding men to do the work, who will not farm out their duties to bogus construction companies of which they are the chief beneficia ries. Such u work would not only lie a “Southern line” but a Southern road also; and surely if it had its choice it must ho presumed that the South would prefer that a Southern road should be controlled by Southern men, and primarily in tho interests of Southern people. We agree with our cotemporary in thinking that, if tho Southern Pacific Hoad is to bo endorsed by Congress, und Congressional aid furnished to construct it, tlie measure will he only one of simple justice to the South; and approve its suggestion to have it free from entangling alliances. But we have no hope that Congress will endorse any scheme for the develop ment of the South exclusively. To thoroughly protect tho Mississippi by a system of levees constructed on the plan suggested above, we think, would bo wortti more to the South and to the Government, and would probably rcoeive more favorable con sideration before the Congress. The Northern mind seems incapa ble of realizing us a fact what can lie proved by our citizens of Northern birth, viz.: that our white farmers work as much ns the white farmers of any country under the sun. Of course where it is more profitable to superintend the work of cheap labor men of sense will do that. Tho most prominent fact is that negroes as a mass know nothing else but farm work, and hence the apparent work done by them tends to make the casual observer think that Southern white men are indolent. They are no more indolent now than they were during tlie war, anil Federal soldiers then had ample reason to know t hut they were neither indolent nor cow ardly. The Massacre Panic.— The negro scare in Georgiu seems to have been gotten up for political effect. So far uo conclusive proof of an intention ■to massacre has been found, and in all probability no such tiling ever existed. Even tlie most ignorant of the blacks must feel that to bring on a war of races would be to Insure their own destruction. N. Y. llerahl. When such men as Judge Herschel V. Johnson think It necessary to call an extra session of the Superior Court in order to try tlie offenders, and the iiest citizen of tlie county think it an extensive conspiracy, such a criticism as that given above is unworthy so great a journal as the New York Jler ahl. Millions of dollars’ worth of prop erty is annually destroyed along the line ot the Mississippi and Its tributa ries which would be saved if a deter mined, united and well directed ef fort was made to remedy evils that arise from ignorance, apathy and jealosy. The United States engineers who were detailed to examine and report on the Mississippi levee sys tem and the general condition of tlie river have recommended the remod eling of the whole plan of dyking out tho waters from Cairo to the Gulf. This work should be commenced at once. -A. F. Herald. And Congress should do it, just as it built the Illinois Central, and Un ion Pacific Railroads. This much is due to the despoiled South. The New England cities have given us good examples in dealing with idle vagrants. This is the way they serve the tramps: The city of Lowell, Mass., makes trainps work three hours in the gravel pits, loading carts; Worcester makes them sweep the streets; Now Bedford and Fitchburg arrest them as va grants; and these places are given a wide berth bv the tramps. Pough keepsie, N. Y., has a special law, which requires food and lodging to bo given these vagrant wanderers, but labor compensation is required of the latter; a erib of stone is piled up, nnd tho loafing perogrinator is forced to break it tine enough for ma cadamizing purposes before pursuing ids journey. Poughkeepsie is no longer troubled. New Hampshire Ims adopted severe laws, but without adequate effect, until this season, when they are strictly enforced. The Southwestern States, includ ing Mississippi, parts of Alabama and Georgia and Arkansas, Louisi ana and Texas, oontuin at this time the greatest body of unopened fertile soil on this continent—millions of acres which, when they are brought into subjection, will produce sugar, cotton and tobacco enough to make the South the wealthiest region in tlio world, But, besides this, the Southern States have very great de posits of the best iron ore in the world, immense and undeveloped coal fields, and much other mineral wealth. Moreover, a fair exhibition of the results of the cotton manufac ture alone in Georgia, South Carolina and Mississippi at the Centennial could not fail to surprise capitalists in tho Nortli and Europe and draw their attention to the remarkably steady success of this branch of man ufacturing.—A'. F. Herald. G enkb.il Dorueoabv lias been forced back into Catalonia while making a last effort to rejoin Don Carlos. The Carllsts are massing their forces for an attempt to raise tlie siege of Seo de Urgel. ■•I 111,11' OPINION. lii our opinion Gov. Ttlden is the representative man of the elements which are to be mussed in 1870 against Grantlsm, and in favor of a regenera tion of the Government. In a recent speech at Syraeuao the great ring smasher of New York graphically de lineated tho situation when he said that on investigating tlie crimes of those who wore confined in the jieni tentiaries, nnd considering their temptations, and then contemplat ing the corruption und rascality of men in high position, lie was appalled at the inequality of human justice. Shrevejiorl Time*. Which is better—Grantlsm should succeed in Ohio in October, or that the Democracy inflation platform should be endorsed? Tho inflation platform is stupid, hut Grantism is villainous. The one threatens anew supply of pajier money, when we ul reaily have more paper money than wo can use, and when the attempt to issue more would be defeated by the absence of a demand, the other cor rupts politics, undermines private morality, promotes public robbery, and impoverishes and ruins the peo ple. No matter what else you vote for, vote against Grantism every time. N. Y. San. In these counties, tho great numer ical superiority of the negroes was the main source of the trouble. It was tlie invitation to the slaughter the ground-work of the conspiracy. Peace will follow on tho conviction that mere numbers are of little ac count in the execution of such pro jects, and that in the way of self defense the whites hold the indspu tahio mastery.— Jtarun Teleijrajili. It is a notorious fact that no elec tion in this State, before or since tlie war, ever passed off more quietly than the last. If the peace was any where disturbed by so much as a tist icuff it has not yet been made known. If there was any fraudulent voting, or any attempt to [>erpetrate fraud on the part of either party, nobody in Alabama knows anything of it. [ Monig. Adv. Tlie letter which we published yes terday from Jefferson Davis to the Winnebago County Agricultural So ciety is marked by dignity, intelli gence, and a sentiment of patriotism. It docs credit to its author; and with out containing a single word in con demnation of those who huvo vio lently opposed and prevented his contemplated visit to Illinois, it leaves them in an unenviable posi tion. We take pleasure in saying these words on such an occasion. [N. Y. San. No better illustration of the weak ness of our Indian policy cun be shown than that pursued iu Mon tana, as described by a correspondent of tho San Francisco Call, and which wo give below: Many depredations have been made upon the people of Montana from the direction of the Yellowstone, and sortie eight years ago such were the indioation of an intended massacre, that an army of citizens rallied to tho defence of the frontier, and incur red expenses which afterwards cost the Government very heavily. An other similar crisis is probably nt hand. Others will continue to occur at intervals, until the abandonment of the Yellowstone Valley by the In dians is effected, and white settle ments made there. Many lives und millions of money could be saved, and the finest unoccupied territory on the continent made accessible to settlers, if tho Government would quit experimenting for the Indians, and accomplish this single object for its own citizens. Tt hus tried every other remedy. It tried forts to pro tect tlie country as a route for immi grants. Tlie result was that the forts were captured and tho soldiers mas sacred. It then tried abandonment, gave tho country to the Indians, and irohibited whites from entering it. Frequent collisions between the tribes, and frequent murders of the whites, rendered this policy imprac ticable. It then tried purchase, and sought to educate anil civilize the In dians. This has proved the greatest, failure of all. And now it is seeking to remove tlie friendly Indians from the valley to another'that will soon be wanted, and leave the whole coun try exposed to constant massacre. Every successive act lias been one step backward, in a policy commenc ing with retrogression, until now foroible expulsion of the Indians by the whites, or of the whites liy the Indians, or a treaty of cession by tile Indians to the Goverment, and their abandonment of tlie entire valley, ate the only remedies. The river Is navigable, and will be navigated. Settlers have gone into the valley, and they will continue to go there. This process can no be arrested than Niagara. Government edicts are mere ropes of sand when employed to stay the march of Improvement. • ♦ * ——- Tlie Urrntest Drop 111 the Woi-lit. Tlie hay crop of the United States for the last year is reported to be over -27,000,(too tons cured. This at #2O per ton is about $50,000,000 and does not include what was eaten but not cured. The live stock of tlie United States was worth $1,525,000,- ouo. They had to gt their living out of grass. The value of animals slaugh tered for food in that year was s:too,- 000.000. The butter crop was $514,- 000,000. This all came from grass. There were produced 2:15,000,000 gal lons of milk worth 25,iiiio,(NXi. This, too, came from grass. Next., 100,000,- 000 pounds of wool, at $25,000,000, at $25,000,000. This got its living from grass. Next. 5:1,H00,000 pounds of cheese, worth $5,000,000. Put all these items together and tlie grass product of 1874 of the United Slates was no less than $1,2112,000,000. The total value of all agricultural pro ducts in the United States was $2,447,- 538,668. in other words, the grass crop of the United States cun pay off the national debt in two years. Oak Getting Scarce in Europe. From statistics recently published, it appears that oak timber especially is rapidly disappearing from Europe, although half of the urea of Sweden, one-fourth of Norway, one-sixth that of Switzerland, and 780, 000 square miles in Russia are said to bo vet in forest. The consumption of oak in France Ikes doubled during the last fifty years; she requires' 15,000,000 cubic feet yearly for wine casks alone, $50,000 for building purposes, 000,000 cubic feet for her licet, and 150, 000 cubic feet for railway carriages; £B,- 000,IKK) worth of staves wore imported in 1802 ; £5,000,01*0 worth ure now need ed. Since losing Alsace and Lor raine, France eontalnes 150,000 acres ; 20,000,000 f>f tliis surface is covered with forest. Holland and Belgium are nearly denuded of timber, and are large importers. North Germany is rich in forest, but within half a century lias commenced to cut down young trees. Austria has sold her forests since railways have been in troduced. Iu Italy no forests remain. Sixain and Greece are almost wood less. The southern coast of tlie Med iterranean is almost forestless. The White Sulphur Springs Hotel, Ya., will be pulled down next year. It cost $1,000,000, and has paid no dividends. COU-SHUK OCAIU-.
