Charles Noudiiofe says Georgia is
not properly a planting but a uiauu
faeturing State. We think he will
change his mind if ho will take the
trouble to find out the number of
bales of cotton produced by Georgia
and those States which are “planting
States,” according to Mr. Nordhoff.
The New York Tribune is the au
thority for the following, which we
commend to the careful perusal of
the Atlanta papers: “A decent Lon
dou pai>er never mentions the name
of a rival editor unless in terms of
compliment; while it is rare to see a
number of a Parisian shoot of the
“chivalrous" school which is not
lilted witli the, vilest abuse of its ri
vals aud opponents.”

Abe not Southern journalists given
too much to political writing? As
important os Is that subject, it strikes
us t hut, too much prominence Is given
to it. The dally paper, it seems to us,
should not only bo tho Index of the
political and commercial condition
of our people, but. should ulso appeal
to the higher literary and icsthotic
tastes. The articles written by Hor
ace Greeley on Political Economy,
and the Agricultural features of the
Tribune ne It used to be, made it nil
acceptable visitor even where its po
litical teachings were least accepta
ble. The Tribune, to-day, possesses
the highest standard, in Its literary
and (esthetic character, of any polit
ical journal in the United States.
“Emile de Girardin lias written
eleven elaborate letters to prove that
tlie best tiling France can do Is
to form an offensive and defensive
alliance witli Germany against all
comers, especially against Russia.
Only one single journal of t he French
press is in favor of tho idea ho is
ruiunog.
M. Girardin is always opposed to
existing institutions. Ho belongs to
tlmt small but influential class or
able men who gain renown by expos
ing the errors of renowned men. His
journal, Ha tlbtrte, had much to do
with the decline aud fall of the Em
pire of Louis Napoleon.

Tho Express Eugenio lias begun a
suit, in Franco tor the recovery of a
number of works of art and of a quan
tity of jewelry, the property of her
self urnf of her sou, the Prince lnqio
rtal, which were left behind nt the
Chateaus of Fonfalneblau and Pler
refonds in her sudden departure from
Prance in Keptember, 1870, and
which, it seems, have since been im
pounded by tho French authorities.
It is now in order for the Lee fam
ily to commence suit agaiut the Uni
ted .States Government for various
mementoes taken from Arlington
and placed on exhibition ut Washing
ton. Of all property in the United
Htutes, why was that left by the “Fa
ther of his country” to bis heirs
known as “Arlington” confiscated by
the United States Government ?
American Democracy means license

The New York Work! says:
Both the platforms this year in
Pennsylvania are for rag money the

The Republican Convention de
manded “a tuttfurnt national currency

business interests of the country."
The Democratic Convention de
manded that •’the volume of money
be rtiHtteand kept equal to tile wants
of trade.”

| It is well sometimes to turn from
tho ordinary affairs of life to con
sider those which have ennobled men
and the times in which they lived.
The'fact that, the jieopie r>f Rome
celebrated the fourth centennial of
Michael Angelo Iluonarrottl in Rome
on the 12th inst., Is full of interest.
The mind of tho student is carried
back by this announcement to the
period when to bo celebrated one
must neods bo on artist or an author.
Oenius seems to have boon more
comprehensive in its grasp in those
days than at present. What man of
more modern times could claim to be
at oneean architect, a painter and a
sculptor, of the first order? What
man begins at forty years old to work
In a profession which is destined to
excel the art reputations which have
already mude him famous? First,
famous us a painter, having excelled,
at the ago of fifteen years, his teach
ers, who wero the most celebrated in
Rome, ho was selected by Pope Lau
rence do Medieis, surnamed “The
Magnificent,” to decorate the Vati
can palueo. His "Last Judgment”
made Michael Angelo superbly fa
mous. Arid when Raphael saw Ids
“Bacchus” a wonderful pieeo of
sculpturA* he attributed it, on ac
count of its extreme perfection, to
Phidias or Praxitiles. One secret of
Ids perfect work was his laborious
persistency; for example, he was en
gaged on the “Last Judgment”
eight years; und it is said thht he
worked much longer on the statue
of Moses. ‘ At the age of forty years
he adopted architecture as his pro
fession. The cupola or dome of Kt.
Peter’s, tin; grandest in the world,
after that of the Phantheou, and the
most beautiful work of modern ar
chitecture was the result. Michael
Angelo, being a thorough student,
was a most perfect anutouiist, und
hence his unapproachable skill as a
painter and a sculptor. Michael
Angelo was ulso a poet.

The modesty of our cotemporary,
the Editor of the Columbus Enquirer,
doubtless, caused him to omit copy
ing the very handsome compliment
|iaid hint by tho Editor of the Atlan
ta Herald. Mr. Martin is one of the
oldest editors in Georgia, and few
men In the State enjoy a more mer
ited popularity in the community in |
which ho lives. As nil editorial writer j
upon political questions, lie is the
peer if not the superior of any editor
in Georgia:
“Col. John H. Martin, of thcColum
bus Enquirer, is the best editorial
writer on the Georgia press. The
secret of his power is earnestness and
purpose. His editorials are put in
(lie sweet and strong old Anglo-
Saxon, and are full of conviction. He
never writes unless he has something
to write about a good, but neglect
ed rule."
Munchacsensim.— Tlie New York
Sun contains tho followin tit-lot:
The sea serpent looked like a hun
dred whales swimming in a consecu
tive chain. Its awful head, seen
twenty or thirty feet above tlie water,
was nt least ten times the size of a
horse’s. Color gray. Slashing the
water into a fury worse than the pad
dle of a steamer could make, it pur
sued its terrible course. But nil un
mindful of the circumstance that he
had revealed himself to our corres
pondent ami another witness, and
settled forever the question so lung
in doubt among the skeptical that
tliis boa constrictor of the deep does
Indeed exist and add a now peril to
tho dangers which await the bold
mariner, the sea serpent sped on. It
seems that these sea serpents are fre
quent, in the Nortli Hen. Sometimes
they swallow boats, but as a rule
they have no appetite for that sort of
food. One of the monsters, it ap
pears, blockaded the entrance of a
gulf six or seven miles wide by lying
stretched on the surface of the water.
What an appalling example of the

The New Orleans Bulletin contains
tills item:
Tuesday mornkig, nt the opening
of tlie Boy's Central High School, on
Burgundy street, near Bienville, it
was discovered that E. J. Edmunds, a
young colored man, who lias been
acting heretofore ns tlie Principal in
the Sumner School tor colored chil
dren, imd been placed in the Central
School as Professor of Mat hematics.
As soon as tlie boys of the senior
class learned the fact, they declined
to accede to the arrangement, and, in
a body, loft the school.
This plan, if persisted in, will break
up (lie public school system in the
Booth, and deprive the negroes of
their only means of becoming edu
cated.
Mr. Frederick Douglass is growing
astute in his old age. Ho earnestly
recommends his colored brethren iii
the South to oppose tlie restoration
of peaeo and law by a Democratic
government, and to rush madly into
war with tlie whites. Air. Frederick
Douglass was closely connected with
the Freedman’s Bauk in Washington,
which went to tlie bad with some four
millions of money belonging to these
his colored brethren. The more of
the swindled depositors of the bank
get killed, and the longer the advent
of an investigating Democratic gov
ernment is delayed, the better it will
obviously be for Mr. Frederick Doug
lass and all his fellow-directors.

The Com in o Congress. This is the
estimate made by the Florida Union
a Republican paper: Tlie Forty
fourth Congress will be in session tlie
first Monday in December, and as all
tlie States have chosen their repre
sentatives except Mississippi, the
House will stand one hundred and
seventy-one Democrats, one hundred
and nine Republicans and six lude
lHunlents, with Mississippi to be
heard from on Nov. 2d.
The Senate will have forty-three
Republicans, twenty-nine Democrats
and two Independents.

THE TIMES, FRIDAY MORNING, SEPTEMBER 17, 1875.
Albany, Ga., Sept. 12,1875.
Editor (tolumbus Titties: As you
probably dosiro to hear from tho t\-ops
In thl section of tlie State and how
matters generally are moving along,
“unaccustomed as I uni” (thus our
great father at Long Branch general
ly puts it, when called upon to do
something towurds tickling the ears |
of tho populace with a few thrilling,
remarks drawn from tlie plethoric 1
stores of his eloquence? to writing
for tho press I will give you the gust,
of my observations.
The whole of Southwest Georgia,
with tlie exception of a few fuvored
localities, suffered terribly from tlie
long continued drouth, which was
broken about the middle of August.
Tho showers, however, came too late
to be of any benefit to the forward
corn, und that crop is cut short about
40 per cent. A considerable acreage j
was planted in corn—more than sufll- j
cient to have supplied tho wants of:
the country, hud tlie yield have been
what was expected and hoped. But
I am ufraid now that a cull upon the
granuries of the West will have to be
made by some of our planters. They
Intend to sow an unusual amount of
oats and hurley—tlie latter to be used j
as a green forage—and this will help J
out greatly tlie visible supply of corn.;
Speakingof barley reminds me that j
it is one of the best of known feeds
for horses and hogs, and It is to me a
matter of some astonishment that
more of it is not planted by our peo
ple. It, is certainly a cheaper crop
to raise than corn, and after it is har
vested, if tho ground it was on is
sowed down in peas and the peavines
turned under in September, a vegeta
ble mould could lie uccummulated,
and the land, while bringing in an in
come, could be brought up to the
standard of its former fertility.
The terrible consequences of taking
everything uway from and returning
nothing to the earth, is seen here in
tlie galled spots and exhausted soil,
and what was once tho “Egypt of
tiio Confederacy” no longer raises its
own supply of bread. Our people
must recognize tlie fact, and act upon
it; tlmt. before prosperity returns to
our doors wo must make one acre
produce what four or five do under
our present system.
There will be a falling off of at
least 4 0 per cent, in tlie cottou crop,
even with the most favorable weather
from now on. On some of the best
places in Baker and Lee counties tlie
weed, that, should have boon waist
high and over, does not average knee !
high, and cannot support a full crop. I
Home of tlie cotton was so stunted by
tlie dry, hot weather that it was im
possible for It to take a second
growth; and where it is in this con-1
ditlon tlie yield will be miserably |
small. There is on tho cotton that
Inis not been so Stunted a very fair
top crop, which is doing well. There
is very little middle crop, aud the top 1
crop is something of a forlorn hope, j
as the question of its coming to inn- j
Unity is involved in doubt. A late I
frost would aid greatly in helping tlie '
planter to square off his indebted- J
ness.
No caterpillars have us yet made j
their appearance; nor is there any
fear of their coming this season. I
noticed some fields badly rusted ; and j
this ulso will have the effect of leu-1
selling the probable yield.
Cotton picking has commenced in
earnest. The negroes nre working'
well, und there is no fear of an insur
rection in this section. I am, how
ever, sorry to see that the whites are |
so badly armed. Many of them have!
not even a six-shooter, while nearly i
every negro owns a shot-gun.
