A KAiiMKit, living in Harris county,
who bus ulwnys made the corn ho
needed orfija plantation, says tiiut
lie will not mak* due ininnel of corn
this year to twenty bushels made
last year. The drouth has been vory
severe in Southern and Southwestern
Georgia.

Thk Austin StiUemaan thinks the
majority for the Constitutional Con
vention in will amount to
twenty thousand. The fifth, thir
teenth, fourteenth and fifteenth dis
tricts elected radical delegates, giv
ing that party twelve members In the
Convention.
In Dougherty nod adjoining coun
ties the long drouth bus cut off the
corn crop 50 per cent, und the cotton
crop probably 25 per cent, or more.
Our correspondent there now, writes
us as follows: “We are having too
much rain entirely here, and I think
crops will be very short.” He is well
situated, und well quulllled to judge
of the condition of the crops. We
trust the true condition of the crops
may be made known before they
pass out of the bunds of the planters.

Two of the monkeys at the Jurdin
des Plantes, at Paris, fought a duel
witli knives the other day. By some
ueoldouttwo large clasp knives were
left by one of the keepers In tlio cage
of the animals, and no sooner hud
they been perceived than two of the
largest monkeys seized them, opened
the blades, and fell upon each other
liken pair of men. One of them was
killed ut the first pass, whilst Ills ad

Wnugree with the Washington Star
that the new third party, which was
set. upon its plans iu Boston last Sat
urday, upon the basis of electing N.
P. Banks to the presidency and La
mar, of Mississippi, to the vice Presi
dooy, is not likely to luet through
the frosts of early autumn, much less
live to weather the stormy blasts of
a presidential campaign next year.
The performance reminds one very
much of the famous Philadelphia
urm-ln-urm convention, and that, we
believe didn’t bear much presidential
fruit, so to speak.
Fx-Gov Vance, of North Carolina,
in his recent address before the
Southern Historical Society, related
a secret incident of tiie war. Ho said
that soon after the fuiluro of t fie
Hampton Roads conforcuco ho was
visited by the late Gov. Gruham, who
stated to him that many of the Sen
ators and Represenutives ill the Con
federate Congress and other leading
men believed that the end of the war
was near, and despairing of obtaining
peace through Mr. Davis, they desired
Air. Vance, os Governor of North Car
olina, to enter into separate terms
with President. Lincoln. Gov.Vunce
said that he declined to hike the de
sired step.
The mnV Constitution of Missouri
provides that: The Legislature shall
meet once in two years, cannot have
adjourned sessions, and if it is in ses
sion longer than seventy days every
member loses £1 a day from his pay,
which in the regular session is $5.
Every amendment, must ho incor
porated with tin; original bill, and
printed with 'it before any action is
taken, and no motion to reconsider
at a future time can be entertained If
a bill is lost. The necessary expen
ses of the Suite Government, inter
est, sehool, charitable and other
funds must be provided for before
money is voted for anything else.
,i ust such a Constitution would be
tlie salvation of every State. Espec
ially iu Georgia, do we want some
compulsory law to prohibit so much
expenditure of time and money by
our Legislature. One good step to
ward effecting an early adjournment
ef the Legislature would be to move
tlie Capitol to Milledgovllle. The
peculiar fascinations of Atlanta are
not there, and the average Hon. Mr.
Somebody would consent to hurry
through with the business and ad
journ, rather than die of I'lmai.
Tins Western cotton crop is not so
good as has been reported, us can be
seen by the following from the
Shreveport Times correspondent:
“1 have nothing good to report from
tlie cotton crop. The lice are devour
ing the hill crop on all lands, and
they are retarding the crop on fresh
and bottom lands to such an extent
that we can calculate on no top crop.
Many people call it rust, but it is no
such thing; it is Hoc. If a man tells
yon his cotton has rust on it, tell him
to go home and look at the underside
of the leaves and see it they are not
lielng devoured by lieu. I think the
crop hero in this part of the country
will be about two-thirds as large as
last year, where good prolitlo seed
wore planted, and about a halt crop
where the old kind of seed wore
planted. Iff observation Is that lice
are on all the cotton, but in good
fresh hill lands and on strong bot
tom lauds the cotton can bear up aud
is not so much affected as in poorer
lands, I attribute this disease to tlie
cold nights and damp atmosphere,
but it is something Unit I never knew
to occur before. ”
“Colonel Pompey, how isyoudis

This subjoot is now receiving great
attention throughout the State. Since
writing our last article on the subject
wo have InvestlgaTed" the matter
closely, and to a certain extent have
changed our opinion regarding the
necessity for new Judges.
! There are many suggestions being
1 made by members of the bar and the
j press of the State as to the best meth
od of lessening the labors of the
members of the Supreme Court. Let
I us enquire tile cause of the great labor
lof that bench. Anyone who Is con
j versant witli the decisions of that tri
bunal cannot be at a loss to uccount
for the Increase of litigation In that
court. The opinions of the Judges,
Instead of being decisions upon the
points made, are argument* and e,**ag
upon kindred questions ami some
times upon questions not germain,
entirely outside of the ease to be con
sidered, thus Inviting litigation und
strife. Our reports are lilted with
opinions of this description, thus
causing cases to bo carried up as well
us taxing the legal profession to pro
cure them at great expense. The de
cisions are unsatisfactory not because
the questions made in the case adju
dicated are not decided right, but be
cause tiie obiter diela of the Judge is
unsatisfactory. Hence a spirit of liti
gation is engendered, and the conse
quence is a decision of the court be
low, honestly and correctly follow
ing. The 01/iter of the Judge of the
Supremo Court is carried up to the
Supreme Court and the judgment of
tiie court below reversed. Now it
cannot be denied but that the Judges
of the Supreme Court are themselves
responsible for this. In this way
they have imposed the labor on them
selves, of which they now complain.
What is the remedy ? Let the opinion
of the Judge pronouncing the judg
ment of the Court be a decision of the
points made in tiie record, and not an
argument of error* upon questions
outside of tiie record; for every Judge
well knows that no argument, how
ever conclusive, ever satisfied the
party losing his cause. This will tend
to lesson the number of cases carried
to the Supreme Court.
it lias been suggested that tho Leg
islature pass some law providing that,
only eases involving a certain amount
shall go to tho Supreme Court. This
can not bo done under our constitu
tion, ns it now stands. That instru
ment provides that “The right of the
people to appeal to the courts shall
nover bo impaired,” and, however
small the matter involved iu contro
versy, tho party aggrieved lias the
right of uppeal to the courts, and no
legislation can Impair tills right. And
the suggestion of an intermediate
Court of Appeal is impracticable.
The present system is rigid, ; the
courts are open to all; and tho evils
complained of, can be remedied by
those who caused them.
There Is one suggestion which is
well worthy of consideration by the
Legislature, not so much on account
of its being in a great degree a rem
edy, but on uccount of its inherent
justice. If the Supreme Court was
by law invested witli power not only
to impose damages upon the party
who carried a cose to that Court with
out good and sufficient grounds, but
also to tax tiie party with reasonable
attorney's fees for tho prevailing side,
it would both bo doing justice and
would prevent unnecessary litigation.
But let tho Court commence the
reformation, and their burdens will
lie lightened.
Nirlkc* ami Protection.
Early In tlie winter the iron work
ers of Pittsburg struck against what
they conceived to be unjust exactions
by their employers, but after “wait
ing out” for five weeks they had to
accept tlio terms of the capitalists.
Not many weeks ago an extensive
strike umongthe coal miners of Penn
sylvania was brought to a close in fa
vor of the mine owners. Lately there
have been fifteen thousand mill op
eratives on a strike lathe city of Fall
lliver. Tho most noticeable thing iu
tlioso three strikes is the fact, that
they are all "protected industries.”
For many years past every consumer
of coal, iron amt textile fabrics, has
been compelled to pay more for them
than they were worth in open markets
of the world, to the end that American
mills and mines bekeptinoperation.
Tho farmer was net protected; tlie
cotton grower, tho tobacco raiser, the
mason, the carpenter and others were
left to depend upon their own skill,hut
to tlie end Unit the unprofitable spin
ning of cotton and wool might lie
done iu Massachusetts, and iron dug
in Pennsylvania everybody in the
country was forced t,o pay a premium
to the home manufacturer.
The operative miner and spinner do
not seem to have been protected by
Protection. It has not helped tlie
farmer much who for years Ims had
to give three bushels’ of grain for
what he could have poreured for two
bushels laid there been no protective
tariff. It, lias not, that wo can see,
helped tho ship building trade of tlie
United States; for tho ship building
trade of the country is lifeless. Who
lias it helped? Is tlie answer not
given by the fifteen thousand opera
tives on strikes iu tile city of Fall
lliver. just as it was given by tlie
miners of Pennylvania? It has had
tlie effect of innktig a few men rich,
of rearing a few colossal fortunes, of
erecting some enormous monopolies,
“Lot. every man soil at. the highest
and buy at the cheapest,” is an old
and true proposition, legislation
against which contravenes one of the
clearest laws of trade. — Lynchburtj
Xe ics.
From the Jackson (Miss.) Times,
we learn that that city is now quite
prosperous. Its population is about
tl.ooo, nnd steadily increasing. Besides
being tlie capital of Mississippi, it is
handsomely situated on Pearl river,
near the geographical center of tlie
State, and is furnished with railroads
north, south, east and west. Churches
in abundance and good schools, are
notable features of the place. Much
1 new building is going on, and the
! street railway is being extended, so
j t hat four miles of road will soon be
'in use. Around, it there is a tine agrt
; cultural country, and the Times says
itlie citizens are liberal minded and
i anxioustoenoourage immigration.
! —The Fort Valley Mirror says that
a man in lleynoids, while digging a
well, at the depth of forty-two feet
came to a log of wood in a perfect
state of preservation.
ri HUC OPINION.
| The South has changed rapidly and
I greatly. A policy like that of Gen
eral Grant, while It may have been
useful and necessary eight years ago,
or even four years ago, is no longer
necessary, and lias become extremely
injurious and even dangerous.
The prevailing feeling to-day
umong the Northern people is that
the negro has had his chance, and
that ho must now, ten years after the
close of the war, make fils own future.
There are Republican demagogues
who would like nothing as well as to
seen mussaere of colored men between
now and the Presldontal election.—
.V. V. Herald.
In spite of agricultural losses and
commercial disaster, of political tur
moil and official rasculity, the future
of South Curolina is rich in promise
: and bright witli hope.— Charleuton
Courier.
Asa matter of fact, we suppose it is
universally admitted that tiie prime
cause of the present business depres
sion is tho lack of confidence. It is
not that capital is needed to initiate
new or carry on established enter
prises. There is plenty of capital;
but it is idle; the money market is
glutted. Tho trouble is that values
are unstable, and capital, prover
bially timid, shrinks from the unu
sual risks of investment.- Kn lamge.
I'lin-lKii Value of Aiiirrlenu Title*.
One of our American colleges at its
last oomtnenoomt i t sought to distin
guish itself by conferring upon John
Bright, the commoner and states
man, the degree of Doctor of Laws.
He declines the honor and gives his
reasons at some lengtli in a courteous
reply to tho trustees. Ho says :
This very degree of LL. IX, which
you have sent me, appropriately em
balmed in a dead language I which I
am not ashamed to say I cannot read )
is, I find, conferred upon comic lec
turers, and scarcely loss eotnienl
preachers, while the degree of DI).
adorns the names of your Fultotis as
well as those of your Mark Hopkins.
Where all wear the same title, do
you not degrade those who deserve
it to the level of those who bring it
into disrepute and ridicule ? As there
is not a civil or political title, from
King to Constable, that lias not been
worn bv an unworthy European, so,
you will permit mo to say, there is
not a literary or learned degree which
has not been conferred upon addle
headed and rattle-brained Americans.
Nay, more; your country is disgraced
by some who drive a lively trade in
these degrees.
He then quotes the advertisements
in English papers of |iersons who un
dertake to secure these titles, giving
£2O ns tiie total cost of an American
University degree. He numbers
some of tho German Universities in
this class who sell their diplomas,
just as beer and Indian corn are sold.

Gen. Pickett’s Kindheartepness
The St. Louis Time*, alluding to the
recent death of the Confederate Gen
eral l’ickett, relates the following in
cident of the famous charge at Get
tysburg: I’ickett put himself at the
head of Ids Virginians. He had an
aid-de-camp, a boy almost, and the
only son of a mother who idolized
him. Just before the column broke
from a parade rest into a run, tho
General spoke to his staff officer ten
derly and asked him if he, the aid-de
camp, were killed in the ehurge who
would be sorrowed for him. “My
mother,” tho boy answered, some
thing like a tear dimming Hie glint
of his steel blue eye, and busied him
self no further with the future. Not
so with Pickett. Just as he mounted
upd moved out at, the head of Ids
troops, he called tiie young officer to
him and sent Idm with an important
message to a distant part of (lie field.
When the boy returned the division
was decimated. His commander had
just taken tho trouble to save his life.
