It is worthy of comment that only
Republican journals complain of the
Introduction of the school and relig
ious questions in the Ohio canvass us
probably tending to the defeat of the
Democrats. We regard these us well
as the currency question as local is
sues, and think Hint the bettor sense
of the Democracy will make the
wrongs infliulod by the Radicals the
chief issue In the coming Presidential
canvass. All lesser evils wo can en
dure, if only this Medusa of Radical
ism can be permanently overthrown.
Let the Democracy bide Its time;
once gain the controlling influence in
Congress, and then regulate these
questions as may be necessary. Ten
years of Radical rule have widl uigii
hfihkrupted the country; ten years
of Democratic rule will restore the
equilibrium.

Captain Eads Is in New York, and
lots consulted Hir Charles Hartley
eonoeruing ids plans for construct
ing jetties at the mouth of the Missis
sippi. bir Charles was Knighted by
Her Majesty Queen Victoria for his
splendid success in improving the
Danube, lie has also boon highly
honored for that service by other
Etiru|>ean Powers. In our Republi
can simplicity, orders und medals
commemorative of great success in
life like those achieved by Commo
dore Maury, Professor Morse, und
the honors destined to he earned by
Captain Eads are not received by
Amcrtuuns unless bestowed by the
Governments of Europe. The hon
ored Stu'irlii of tin' Viiwinmtli should,
we think, establish some order by
which (intellectual merit may be dis
tinguished and placed far above that
which l devoid from the mere acou
mul atlon of money. There Is an aris
tocracy in every country, despite
written Constitutions to the contra
ry, and the aristocracy that is found
ed merely on wealth Is the most vi
cious that can be created. Such wins
that reared by the court of Napoleon
111, which ignored the Legitimists;
and such is that which is rapidly be
coming too prominent in the United
States. Let intellectual merit be fos
tered.

This unkind allusion to the original
Southern insurrectionist is from the
Nation:
“Mr. George H. Williams must
feel, if he preserves anv of his old in
terest iu the fortunes of the oppressed
negro, that the whole business has
been shockingly mismanaged. Here
Is an Insurrection of negroes ground
down nud oppressed by Democratic
tyranny, in a part of t lie Sent li where
Republican sentiment is much need
ed, and lu a part of Georgia whore
the negroes outnumber the whites;
and yet, on the eve of a Presidential
year, no sort of use Is made of these
promising materials by tho Depart
ment of Justice. With a few troops
and an euterprising commander sent
down from Washington, the insur
rection might not. only have been
kept going on fora month or two, but
it might easily have turned out that
a searching investigation would have
shown it to be not a negro uprising,
but a Democratic plot to murder the
negroes; nud with a little court-mar
tialing aud telegraphing, the North
ern heart might have been once more
tin-dtp a polut at whieh the repeal
of the habeas corpus next winter
would soeiu the chief necessity of
these awful limes. And all this
thrown away bv the sluggishness of
Mr. l’ierrepont and Gen. Grant!”
A number of Chinamen went into
tlieip cemetery at Antioch, Cal., to
offer up burnt saeriileeto their Gods.
Their burnt offering assumed unex

the grave enclosures, head boards,
trees, and shrubbery, the Cqjgatinls

reverent flight.

We publish below a coOOisc descrip
j-tron, taken from the New York trib
une, Of the 'jetties now being con
structed at the mouth of tho Missis
sippi by Capt. James B. Eads. Capt.
Eads, like nil truly great engineers
and philosophers, follows the sugges
tions of nature. Civil engineering
can ngt be culled an exact science,
since tlic neoe,Blt)ca of every locality
u£[ goVcmcd by loud oKigerch*
whieh lax tho skill of tho scientist to
devise successful plans to combat the
obstacles (brown In his path by nat
ural onuses. Thus the great. Euro
pean engineer, M. Ferdinand do Les
sens, found his chief difficulty iu
building tho Sue/. Canal to be the
absence of stone ; hence the discov
ery of a mode by whieh artificial
stone, from the smallest size to huge
boulders, could he manufactured;
aud hence, probably, tho invention
by which Southern cities, located far
from cheap quarries of natural stone,
euu he provided with pavements of
artificial stone nearly equal to that,
with which Nature provides moun
tainous regions. An entirely different
state of affairs greeted Capt. Eads in
constructing his system of jetties,
whereby large vessels will he on
ubled to enter the Mississippi River
und continue mi unimpeded journey
to tho city of New Orleuns. The im
portance of making of the Mississip
pi an I liter-national highway, ns far
as New Orleans at least, can not he
overestimated. If successful, it will
change the destiny of the immediate
future of that city and the great Mis
sissippi Valley. New Orleans will
rapidly attain pristine splendor-aye,
excel Its (last,, and endow the South
Atlantic States witli a heritage yet
undreamed of. Tho plan now being
perfected of constructing artificial
walls of ''flat mattresses of willow
brush, securely lashed together aud
anchored to piles” which protect
each other, and are themselves pro
tected by the sediment deposited by
the mighty current, will uUiiiuttely be
extended to the levees themselves, iu ail
probability, and the vexed problem
will thus have been determined on a
scale commensurate with its import
ance, and upon a plan as durable us
human ingenuity cun devise. This
plan, wo believe, is similar in many
respects to that by whieh the l.’lundes
of Franco were reclaimed from the
llay of Biscay during the reign of Na
poleon III:
The plan adopted is remarkable for
its simplicity. The general aim, as
is well known, is to eon line the waters .
of the mouth within straight, parallel
walls, so proportioned in width to the
quantity of water escaping as to pro
duce a certain velocity of current,
and force the stream to scour out a
cliunnel for itself of required depth.
The great difficulties of the problem
were only in devising menus of cre
ating these artificial wails, and mak
ing them secure and permanent upou
tlie exceedingly unstable foundation
afforded.
The Mississippi river empties itself (
over sediment many feet in depth,
dejiosited by itself, and through
walls of sueli sediment ia like man
ner thrown up on either side by its
current. In effect, foundation and
walls are of soft mud. into which any j
works of stone would speedily sink !
ami disappear. Files alone, or crib
work, however llnnly placed, would
soon bo undermined and swept away
by the scour of the current. To meet,
these difficulties, whieh have seemed
to some engineers almost .insupera
ble, Captain Eads builds the artilleial
walls of the river with broad, flat ;
mattresses of willow brush, securely
lashed together, and anchored to an
interior row of piles. The preliminary
work is the driving of piles along and
inside of the line proposed for the ar
titlcial structure. Meanwhile great
mattresses of brush are constructed,
firmly locked together with cross
bars and hickory pins. These mat
tresses, forty feet wide aud only two
feet, thick,are towed into position ad
joining the (dies and fastened to them.
If placed at night, by morning the
deposit of sediment from the currant
has so filled the interstices as to sink
them, so that they rest upou tlie bot
tom, and the sediment continues to
gather in upon them until they he
come more solid and enduring than
any part of the natural bunk. For
the current may at anytime scour
away tlie natural Sank with rapidity. !
but the resistance offered by the wii- j
low brush effectually prevents un\ !
displacement of the sediment lodged
within Its interstices. When com
pleted, the wall of mattress will per
fectly protect the row of piles from
the current, while the piles serve to
hold the mattresses In position, and
tho whole will ho covered with a firm
stone paving, protecting the surface
from the assault of storms. The out
er ends of the walls, where they are
exposed to tho sea, will also he con
structed of much broader and strong
er mattresses, supporting solid and
durable works. It will bo u work of
years to complete tho whole struc
ture, but the channel will rapidly
deepen as fast as it Is confined wit bin
narrower limits by the artificial walls.
It is calculated that these will he so
far completed before this year etuis,
that tlie largest ships ever seen in
New York Harbor can enter the South
Pass at Buy time, and proceed with
out delay to New Orleans.
or the preliminary line of piles,
9,860 feet nave now been driven on
the east jetty, und 1,950 on the west
jetty, while 5,600 feet of the mattress
foundation have already been secure
ly laid. Each mattress is not only
fastened to others adjacent and to
the piles, hut anchored in Us place
by a layer of stone. Rut those who
understand the rapidity with whieh
the river will create an enduring bar
in a few hours, merely by a deposit
of its sediment in and around the top
of a tree Which happens to lodge in
and cheek the current, and who know
with what extreme difficulty such
bars are removed, will realize that
the artilleial walls whieh Capt. Ends
creates are anchored more llnnly by
t ho river's own deposits t Iran it would
be possible otherwise to anchor them
by any human device. The laying of
these "mattress foundations goes on
at tho rate of 900 linear foot per day.
The utmost, confidence is now felt by
(’apt. Eads and his associates that
the work will secure the desired
depth of water at the mouth of the
Mississippi within a few months,
vv Kerens any other plan would have
required years, if his expectations
are realized, it. will boa magnificent
triumph of engineering skill, iu
which all who have an interest iu
the commerce of the Mississippi Val
ley or of the Gulf will heartily re
joice.
Mr. Beecher, being introduced to a
Quaker gentleman at the White
Mountains, said to him: "1 under
stand veur belief deprives you of
some of the pleasures of this life.”
The other replied: "It shields us
from some of its temptations, also.”

AN Ilona IN ATLANTA.
PONCEi DK LEON BPBINO
give* to Atlanta quite a eity-liko air,
for ofovvdH *f children aecomianled
by parents or nurses fill the street
oars dally, und enliven the sylvan
scene with juvenile games and guyety.
It is a pretty sight to see these nice
ly dressed children playing under the
trees, or watching with wondering
eVesthe diminutive water-mill, whieh
some kind genius has built, on the
brunch for their amusement. Car
riages and buggies filled with beaux
and young ladies occasionally roll in,
and everyone adopts the easy aban
don, which is tho instinctive privliigo
of habituees of this and similar re-!
sorts. Gentlemen are shooting at a
target; ladles walking; children run
ning, und everyone assume, If they do
uot feel, u contented air.
fn going from Whitehall street to
l’unce de Loon n coup d'veil of Atlan
ta is given, which gives one a fine
conception of the city. On top of the
huge buiidibgs, now being construct- j
ed, appear already signs of wholesale
houses, although these buildings are
uot nearly completed. Crowds hurry
along as if each man wished to han
dle each half dollar paid out in the
city. Nervous energy is tin; chief
characteristic, big buildings tho ma
nia of tho capitalist. Markham’s
new hotel la springing up fast, and is
already leased!
A vacant lot wus sold yesterday,
and this morning the Architect Far
kinswason the spot planning anew
building. Mark Johnson’s building!
is advertised ull over. In rapid sue- j
cession wo see the Capital, James’!
and the Governor's residences, and a
chain of beautiful homes with grassy
lawns, until we reach Grant’s prince
ly homo. Then appears last “honest
Jack Jones'” fiat-roofed Mexican
house, and we leave the Gate City be
hind us.
While ill Atlanta we visited the of
fice of the Commissioner of Agricul
ture. It is a veritable agricultural
museum, and add tliut of the State
Geologist, is a guide to the seeker
after tin* truth respecting the pro
duction* of Georgia. Our part of the
State is uot represented in this agri
cultural collection; let our farmers i
recollect this and remedy it if they :
wish for immigrants. We saw fine
specimen* of Lucern, Timothy, Hun- i
garian, Tull oat amt Herd's grasses, j
betides native grasses; also rust- j
.proof und Winter-grazing oats, the)
latter furnishing three crops from
one sowing. Bartow, Hancock,
Wilkes, and Gordon counties are well
represented here. From Greene
county comes Ku-Klux corn, Id ears
to 3 stalks. Let our farmers see that
our counties are represented in this
advertising collection. F. F.
Everybody has heard of “Governor”
Sam Bard, late of Georgia, by this
time. He was appointed Governor
of a Territory and afterwards post
master of Atlanta, by Grant, from
which latter position he was removed.
But ho didn’t get “mad”about it. On
tlie contrary, in his new paper, the
Montgomery. Ala., Stale Journal, he
defends Grant nobly in respect to the
St. Louis whisky frauds, and favors
Ids election for a third term. In rela
tion to the whisky frauds, Bard “calls
upon the Republicans to stand by the
man who intends to remove from the
party that odium which corrupt men
nave attempted to tlx upon it.” The
country will be glad to hear of Grant’s
good intentions, while regretting that
lie didn’t begin to carry them out
several years ago. Almost the only
instance in which he put them in ex
edition was his removal of Bard from
Hu* Atlanta postofflee. Philadelphia
