With regard to the Kentucky to
bacco crop, the Courier-Journal says :
The crops since 1808 are reported by
the State Auditor as follows: 1868
106,030,938 lbs.; 1869 08,754,330 lbs. ;
1871, 97,907,216 lbs.; 1872—168,184,990
lbs.; 1873, 150,276,000 lbs.; 1874 -be
tween 30,000,000 and 40,000,000 lbs.;
and of 1875, the present crop, will be
about 118,000,000 lbs.
A friend, commenting upon our
article upon President Davis, recalled
the following incident: “I remember
with Inefaeeable distinctness the
manner of Mr. fan old gentle
man nearly 80 years old, than whom
our city never had a more respected
citizen), ns he entered his oflteo just
after the news was received of Mr.
Davis being Ironed in the prison of
Fortress Monroe.”
He was not an admirer of Presi
dent Davis, but lie came in with his
head bent forward, and with the
deepest feeling said, “No man should
hereafter say a single word in con
demnation of President Davis.” He
was not a very great talker in express
ing his own opinion, but that came
from the innermost recesses of his
miigunnimous soul.
Hkbzeoovinia, on Hk.rsek, an almost
independent country belonging to
the Turkish Empire since 1699, is a
mountainous country covered by
ram ideations of tho Dlnaric Alps. It
ooDtalns 306,000 people. It was form
erly a part or Croatia. One of Its
cities, Costel-Nuevo, belonged along
time to Venice. This little country
is peopled by Christians of the Greek
ehureh and of Sclavic origin, and
lienee the present uprising against
the Turks, its well as that of 1861.
They are hnrdly more Turks in feel
ing, religion or ruce than aro the
Hungarians or Bohemians, there be
ing only 69,000 Mohammedans. The
people speak o Sclavic dialect similar
to that, of Dalmatia and Croatia.
When we consider that the Slavic
populations number 84, 000,000, and
thtt doctrine of Pansolavism which
proposed to unite ull the Sclavic races
under one government, we can un
derataml the wide-spread Interest
manifested in this insurrection. Not
to speak of liussia and Poland, that
are almost entirely Sclavio in origin,
we find that In Prussia, Pomerania,
Bohemia, Silesia, Moravia, Bosnia,
Waifaohia, are chiefly Selaves. Bran j
deubufg and Mecklenburg are half 1
German and half Selave.
But more than mere sympathy is
the necessity of preserving peace, 11s
the result of participation in tiiis
Herzegovinia war by any of the
Slavic powers would be a general Eu
ropean war. Turkey has 140,000 men
in her regular army. The only fear
Turkey now has is the alliance of
Montenegro, Servia and Roumania
with Herzegovinia, in which ease
their united armies would excel those
of Turkey in Europe. Aside from re
ligious differences, these Sclavic pro
vinces are loth to pay taxes to Tur
key without an adequate representa
tion. The treasury of the Grand Vizier
required the collection of taxes past
duo, and which the Herzegovinians
refused to ]ay. Hence the war. The
situation is considered highly criti
cal in Vienna, and Austria may be
come involved. The Ottoman Gov
ernment has already dispatched 18,-
000 men to the field of notion, audit
Servia and Montenegro remain neu
tral, it is thought that the war will
soon end by the submission of the
Herzegovinians.
The conflict between the Mussul
man und tho Greek Christian seems
on irrepressible one, and permanent
pence can not be hoped for uutil
the Sclavio dependencies of Turkey
are free, or the Porte is pushed out of
Europe.
THK OTIII:It NIOK.
Anxious to "bo sure wo were right,
and then gr> ahead,” we sought one
of our most roqieeted merchants,
who lias forty years’ experience in
business, and most of that time has
resided here. We do not propose to
become a partisan upon any subject.
Wc desire to give facts as they exist,
and to suggest such remedies as it is
the provlneo of the journalist to do.
Wo know that wo venture on danger
ous ground und will make enemies.
We know, further, that these enemies
] will bo no longer enemies when they
probe our motives, if they would bo
just. We desire to see our elty again
prosperous.
The gentleman referred to stated to
us that 11 store which rented one year
since the war for $5,000, now rents
forsl,oooperannum. Thesamestore
rented before tiic war for S6OO, and
Columbus did a much larger business
then than now. Ho contends that
rents at present are high enough
under present circumstances. He
assigns as the cause for excessive
rents in 1866 'O7 the fact that we had
too many merchants, and stores were
in excessive demand. Hr agree. with
him; but contend that ids side of tho
question is the strongest argument
yet advanced to sustain our assertion
that we can make Columbus more
prosperous than ever if wo determine
to do so, and cast aside individual
prejudices In order to carry out this
determination.
Successful merchants depend on
successful farmers. This is, at last,
an admitted fact. Planting has not
paid in this section since ls7o. We
think a critical examination will
prove that tho profits of business and
of rents have declined since the prof
its of tho planters declined, and, as a
rule, ceased. Profits are reciprocal;
and no one brunch of trade cun pros
per or suffer without effecting all
other branches similarly. Tho dif
ference is only one of degree and
time.
In North Georgia labor is high;
rents are high; the necessaries of life
and dry goods as cheap or cheaper
than in Columbus. Yet the people
are in far better condition, and every
town grows; while tho prieo of land
is as high as it was before tho panic.
Take u comprehensive view. Politi
cal economy teaches that for every
ail ult the population is Increased
four and a half times. This is uni
versally true. Suppose an air-line
railroad existed from Columbus to
Atlanta. Freights would bo cheaper;
the planter's supplies cheaper; con
sumption would, therefore, be great
er, and the merchant’s profits bo pro
portionately Increased. Greater pros
perity would inevitably ensue. This
would cause more manufactories,
which, in turn, would bring more
people. A thousand new operatives
means 4,500 more people, who would
spend their earnings among the mer
chants, and thus enrich them. This
would inevitably bring store houses
in greater demand, which would
again raise rents. The benefits would
bo felt by every class of our people,
and croakers would vanish. Can
these "circumstances” which threat
en to make our city a “way station,”
be changed ? We think they can. It
Is worthy concerted effort, at least.
I’pper Ueorgtn l-'arni 1 11a.
Capt. 0. A. Bedd, one of our lead
ing citizens, reports that Judge Gor
don, of Catoosa county, will niako
this year 3(),00o bushels of corn. Col.
Lewis Tumliu's average crop since
the war has been 6,000 bushels wheat,
10,000 bushels corn, 125 bales cotton,
immense quantities of clover hay,
and bacon enough to run his planta
tion for two years. There is now on
the Tumlin place, which is situated
on the Etowah river near Cartersville,
Bartow county, over 3,000 bushels
old oorii and a plentiful supply of
old bacon (home raised.) In ad
dition to tiiis he raised his own mules,
and his plantation grist mill was
worth an annual rental of $9,500.
North Georgia is a better place to
“migrate” to than Texas.

There is hardly a doubt that tho
insurrectionary movement iu Wash
ington and contiguous counties was
instigated by Radicals for political
effect. Tho confessions of the arrest
ed conspirators clearly Indicates that
in their ignorant fanaticism they ex
pected aid aud sympathy from the
North. The Northern I’ress do not
realize how extremely Ignorant the
musses of the negro population are.
Negroes view every subject from a lo
cal standpoint, and rarely reflect upon
consequences of rash acts. Tho con
temptible fellows, who act us Radical
minions in the South, are social par
asites, who do not hesitate at the
commission of any crime, provided j
their worthless lives aro not ondan-!
gered. Failing to establish the lies!
of Ananias Hays and Spencer, they
adopted this miserable plan to inau
gurate t lie reign of spoliation in tho
South.
The supply of Peruvian guano is
said to bo exhausted. The Charleston
Courier says: "The large discount of
forty per cent., allowed by the Peru
vian Government to tho shippers of
guano to tiiis country, on account of
rock and gravel, will readily account
for the lowered price, and at the same
time give a wholesome warning to
purchasers of fertilizers of the neces
sity of being assured of the value of
what they receive. The reputation of
Charleston fertilizers, we nro glad to
believe, lias never been so high or so
well deserved as now.”
The assessed value of property in
I Illinois for 1875 is $1,095,427,935, being
$80,211,802 less than that of 1874, and
i $83,465,409 less than the equalized
value of 1874. These figures do not
include assessments of railroads and
other corporations.
The Scotch mail makes three hun
dred and eighty-seven miles, from

being a little inside of eight hours, or

It is not to be wondered at that
there is indignation among reputable
citizens of South Carolina at the man
ner in which ex-Treasurer Parker has
practically slipped out of the dutch
es of the law. The amount lie was
charged with stealing was $75,000; so
that the forfeiture of bis bail is equal
to a compromise for little more than
two and a half cents on the dollar.

There ure many maxims inculcated
as productive of health that are per
nicious. One of tiiese is that of ris
ing with the dawn anil taking early
exercise from dawn to sunrise. In
fall and winter this is not good ad
vice in malarious countries. Dr. D.
Lee, in the Nashville Union und
American, says:
Fogs naturally become impregna
ted with all deleterious exhalations
from impure surfaces, whether
swamps.lakes, rivers or cities; and
it is well to kindle tires in living or
sleeping rooms to expel that humidi
ty which is so ready to catch aud
hold all organic poisons that may
float in the atmosphere. Keep out
of the fog as much as possible. After
tho sun has dispelled it, you may
walk, ride or drive in a different cli
mate, forsolar heat removes notonly
impure vessieles from the air, but
microscopic organisms which are the
germs of ull muluria. A man on
horseback may escuiie a disease that
will attack one on foot, both passing
over the same malarious ground.
Hence it is better to ride than walk
into a swamp to hunt stock, or for
any purpose, ft is not alone the wet
feet and garments that make walking
in dew, especially the heavy dews of
autumn, unhealthy. One is liable to
inhale parasites which may fasten on
the liver, spleen or other organs, and
develop o hills and fever.

When Andrew Johnson was Gov

Court, und the Governor with his own
