America Is ahead ot the world lu the manufacture of ares, and the American shape is being adopted everywhere. The Herald says that nearly ono (1 carter of the total real estate of New York city Is liyiiOthScafcd. The banks and insurance companies aro the holders. Lieut. Gen. PcMiiumm, the Confed erate defender of Vicks burg, is now in the employ Of the Pennsylvania Railroad Company, to establish iron work* at Perth Amboy. The Now Orleans Bulletin says the public schools of that city are a dis grace and a shame, and they will re main so until a thorough change is made in their management. A new article for thieves to steal : The Florida Union notes the Increase of tliO stealing of sidewalks. The ‘■sidewalks” In Jacksonville arc made of pine planks, and the colored popu lation find it convenient for purposes of fuel. *- - • ♦- • The New York lloriel says that Southern trade is now being sought for instead ot being shunned. It is estimated that, safe and solvent buy ers from the South now in the city are four or live times us numerous us they have been for severul years. ■— We have in our office a copy of the Columbus Haiti/ Kiu/iUrer-Suti, dated JimnlO, 1874, by which our subscrib- j era ouu see at a glance the advantage of having two papers instead of one, each one better than the one which possessed u monopoly a year ago. —-— — 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 under tho name of liberty; in France they have more liberty and less li cense. The New York Work! says: Both the platforms this year in Pennsylvania are for rag money the Republican a little worse than tho Democratic. The Republican Convention de manded “a tuttfurnt national currency adjusted tb the itmuinri trmifs of the business interests of the country." The Democratic Convention de manded that •’the volume of money be rtiHtteand kept equal to tile wants of trade.” The “Texas Cattle King," Cai*aiu Richard King, recently contracted by telegraph to furnish 2k,000 peeves.

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 creative pywer or nature I • • 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. [.V. F. IForW. 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. We do not see tho wisdom which attracts emigrants into the Platte Valley, for instance, or into Western Kansas or Dakota, when we have great States awaiting t hem like Vir ginia.

Krrhnuoe. 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.
