The Atlanta Herald is very anxious for them to get through with it, in order to shirt some Other humbug. The Rome exposition proposes to raise five hundred dollars to be ex pended In premiuns for wheat raised 18711, with home-made fertilizers, as follows : for the best acre *250 ; for the second best,, $150; for the third best, sino. Open only to Cherokee Georgia and Alabama. The rice piunterson tin* Alabama river are agreeably surprised that so few of their annual fall visitors, the rice birds have arrived this year. Ii is supposed that these little pets have been detained by the unusual quan tity of rice planted on the rivers further north. —Says the Augusta Conslifathmal isf: Cotton is now coming into the city at the rate of over four hundred bales per day. We have already re ceived, up to last night, 2,411 bales since the beginning of September. Ii is being sold nearly ns fast as it ar rives, and the money put into circu lation. We look for an immediate improvement in money and trade. —Quite a serious accident occurred to the upjmssenger train on the Ma con and Brunswick road, Thursday evening, at Shollstone Creek, 38 m 1 ;s from Macon. An axle broke am threw from the track three box cars, aud the second-class passenger coach. Fortunately the train was running only at the rate of eight miles an hour, and comparatively lit tle damage was done. Says the Atlanta Constitution: The Augusta Chruniele, has a severe attack of the blues, superinduced by a prolonged contemplation of our Ur-Line Hoad and of its future feed ers. It, is bad enough that the Air- Line ilself is building up Atlanta, but when to that is added an early prospect of tho iioinplction of the Northeastern and Elberton roads, the Clirwiwle Poo-boo- right out. Both of these branches, it says, will draw trade away from Augusta to Atlanta. Quite likely. Trade is apt to go where the best facilities are of fered. The Chruniele is right when it says that Augusta has no monop oly of trade. It must light for what it gets hereafter, and not sleep or theorize over the subject. Atlanta proposes to sell goods ail over the territory that Augusta claims as its own. Fetnalf* Collw** Georgia is an old State. She knows or should know her own wants. She should know how many of her sons arid daughters will require each year schooling of a superior grade, and provide for such educational wants. We believe nil this has been foreseen and provided for. We believe that the Suite contains ample educational facilites for her own children, but we also believe that tile people of Geor gia do not properly appreciate our provisions of tit is nature. This is nei ther patriotic nor economical. Per haps one hundred young men and young women are sent out of the State each year to be educated in the institutions of States to the north of ns. This cripples our own excellent colleges. It, deprives them of that amount of sup]>ort which is necessa ry to the highest degree of success and efficiency. Anil while our peo ple are thus weakening their own in stitutions they are spending a large sum of money in other States that will not return to them even iu part. When we have excellent, sclmols and colleges -confessedly excellent when too, it costs more to educate children abroad then at home, why is it that an exodus of our young peo ple is allowed to take place every fall? The policy is certainly a suicidal one. Our colleges and schools will lapse from their high standing aud present prosperity if such a course is main tained. What citizen wishes the doors of Georgia’s educational insti tutions forever closed? And yet the man who sends his children out of the State to be educated, is pursuing a course that will achieve as much if not speedilv stop[>ed. It would boa discredit to the State if she could not provide as good colleges as Virginia or anv other State cart. We have such schools, we repeat; but through the false dictates of fashion or some other inconceivable freak, the people of the State do not support them as they should. Let Georgia s sons and daughters be educated in Georgia. No State has better schools, and no people Reserve patronage more than our own do. —Atlanta ConxtUution. THE DAILY TIMES. hi iiti.kiiam: v\ p a kin. X VISIT TO THE PAItISIAU OObOOTH.V -THE CATACOMBS. The Parisian correspondent of the London Globe, writing of a visit to the catacombs of Paris, says: The other day the members of the Geographical Congress were invited to explore subterranean Paris, or as much of It as is generally thrown open to the public, as too much time would be absorbed were t he whole of these avenues and roadways to be visited, besides which there Is a ocr ain danger of being lost, or, as fre luently happens, a portion of the noting falling In and crushing the exploring party. Reasons such as these have caused the visit to be limited to tho roadways which lie between the Barriers d’Enfertind the galleries which contain the bones of those who were interred in the dif ferent Parisian burial grounds, be fore the authorities had restricted he burial of the dead to certain cemeteries, and which hud remained in the cloisters mid old churchyards before the Paris improvements were tommenced. The time fixed for the visit was 1 p. m. , but. fully half an hour before that time the intending visitors had Assembled at tho Octroi of the Bar riers d’Enfer, fearing lest they might miss the treat they had been looking forward to. Each person had been requested to provide himself with a tandleand a box of matches, but the qieeulative urchin who never misses a chance of turning a penny, had heard ol'the projected visit, and the itinerant marehaad de btmijies was at tiis post. Gandies fitted to a wooden handle, with abroad cardboard guard to prevent the grease from dripping m the clothes of the person carrying it, were being hawked about; boxes of matches seemed at a premium, and lescriptions of tho catacombs were largely purchased by the foreigners who were assembled, waiting for one of the municipal engineers who was to conduct them through the laby rinths of that curious place, entered at tho ominously named Burriero d’Enfer. The members of the Geo graphical Congress had mustered in force, aud they were accompanied by i number of ladies. While waiting, the conversation reminded one of the eonfusion of tongues at the Tower of Babel. Rus sian, Italian, Spanish and English were being spoken, and the peculiar American accent could be dist inguish ed, as the manners and customs of different countries, to tln* generality of people almost unknown, were dis cussed. The fair sex seems to be well represented tit the Congress, and had Mrs. Jellaby been there, she would have learned how far her mis sion might be further extended, and how much the traveler and explorer would hail with delight tho ora when flannel vests will replace cocoanut and palm oil, with which it is the nature of some people to bosmeut themselves. As one o’clock sounded, the signal to get. ready was given, match-boxes were looked to, the caudles were firm ly gripped, am! some ladies, very sen sibly, pul on water-proof cloaks, drawing the hoods over their bonnets so as to guard against the moisture, which, after the late heavy rains we have been having, filtered through tho roots of the catacombs. Can dles were lighted, and one by one the two hundred visitors assembled, dis appeared down the winding staircase, with its ninety-two deep stops, which leads to the vaults below. Round and round, turning giddily, until at the end of five minutes a welcome voice announced that, the head of the procession had arrived on the level ground llftv-eight feet below tin* street above. The 200 flick ering candles gave a weird aspect as they illuminated, like so many nills o’-thc-wlsp’ the dark chalk stone roof of the vault through which the party look Us wav. The water was trick ling down i lie walls, or dripping from tlic fungus-covered roof, to the eminent discomfiture of those who wore new lulls or light, trowsers, while here and there the gleam to the candles showed some patch of water, the endeavors to avoid which were ludicrous. Home one would see a pool, make a jump to avoid it, and land in another perhaps deep er, sending up a shower of water which made the candles spit and splutter, and caused those who had been sprinkled inclined to use strong language. But as none escaped some of these mishaps, as the sprinkler often got sprinkled in return, good humor soon prevailed, and every one at last got careless, plodding along without heeding the miniature ponds under foot. On the wall, inscrip tions bearing the names of the streets under which the party were passing showed the progress being made, while to the right and left were gal leries, into which no one was allowed to penetrate, as iu some eases the roof had fallen in, and in others fears were entertained that the heavy rains might have rendered the galle ries unsafe. After walking for about twenty minutes the party halted ; the ladies were invited to go to the front, the men to bring up the rear. A few min utes more and a door was readied, over which a notice had been placed saying that no smoking was allowed, and that no one was permitted to touch the bones, although one would fancy that the latter part, of the pro hibition was superfluous except in the raise of enthusiastic phrenolo gists. The procession reached the funeral hail, or vast ossuary, where I the bones of the lead have been ar ranged in horribl • order, with some idea of ornament. Hkulls yellow with time, some looking like polished ma hogany, others like parchment or ivory, grinned in a ghastly mariner at the passers-by ; thigh and arm bones seemed ready for the ineilati/m a Iu rate, * to join in Holbein’s “Lance of Death;’’ and many wondered if at the hour of midnight some strange scenes might not be seen ill such a charnel-house. Who could have picked out the skull of some Torick from among the thousands of jawless omniums which were piled up and arranged in a va riety of devices, or have distinguished between the bones which, according to the inscriptions over them, had come from the Cemetery of the Inno cents, from the cloisters of Hairit Ho norc, etc., places which iiave been forgotten, and which the present gen eration does not remember. Gn the walls all kinds of philosophical in scriptions have been traced, by the hands of the workmen, no doubt, as some of the anxious, intended to be sublime, verge on the ridiculous, and would excite a smile were it not for the solemnity of the spot. Another souvenir of the Commune was to be found in a row of skulls and arm and thigh bones, which an inscription tells us once belonged to those who COLUMBUS, GA., WEDNESDAY, SEPTEMBER 22, 1875. were entombed in the Church of tho 81. Laurel, but whose sepulchers were violated liy tho Federal Insurrection ists in 1871. On quitting this charnel house the party retraced its steps, returning to the spiral staircase by which the descent had been made, after a visit of an hour, during which a distance slightly in excess of three miles had been gone over. Up tho steps out of tho dark and moist vault smelling like the grave the daylight was hailed with delight, and although every one felt glad the visit, had been made, every one was pleased it was over. Stories hud been told of how the Communists had been lost., how their rotting bones are evon now to he discovered when competent men explore the subterranean passages near Montrooge, ho that each stair was mounted with a lighter heart, and every one felt relieved when the tran-door leading to the catacombs had been closed. Jiilin riililaninll mi Pnllttrs. From tho Cincinnati Trad© List.) Probably the most curious pair of human beings that have yet been seen at the Exposition witnessed the show on Monday night. They were Chinamen, clad in flowing robes and sandals, with the inevitable pigtail done uj> in a double bow-knot at tho back of their heads. A representative of the Trade List, after following them around for some time, came up to them while they wore at a stand still on the bridge in Floral Hall. Tho following valuable and inter esting conversation took place; Reporter Hoy, John. What, do you think of the show? (Chinaman grins and shows Ids teeth.) Reporter tin a louder voice) 1 say, John, it’s a big display, isn’t it? Chinaman—Chow Hi likee Meliean man show heap big. Reporter—Good for you, Clioiv Hi. Did you ever see anythnik as big as tliis In China? Chinaman Chow Hi likee Meliean man show. Chow Hi likee Meliean Billallen. Meliean man dollco heap good Chinaman. Billallen brick. He makoe more dollee. Reporter—Well, what’s this got to do with—- Chinaman—Chow Hi not. aflaid Meliean man. Chow Hi stick up for Rillailan. Washe closee Rillalleu. Voice six times Rillalleu. Ho heap great man. Makco dollee plenty rice. Chow Hi likee white mini talkee Lout Billallen. And as Chow Hi began to unwring his pigtail at. t.iiis interesting junc ture and indulge in a series of evolu tions that were strikingly suggestive of familiarity with the sports of the prize ring, the reporter concluded that it was wrong to further molest the son of Confucius, and according ly departed. . . - - • ♦ • - A Man Who Does Not Lauuh. An English traveller, Mr. Hartshorne, gave tho British Association the other day an account of the Weddas, a wild tribe which lives in the interior of Ceylon. These Weddas are about five feet high, live on waterand roast monkeys, and are, he reports, inca pable of laughter. After trying every way to make, their chief laugh, and failing, lie asked, in amazement, whether they ever laughed. “No,” replied the Wodda; “why should we? What is there to laugh at?” - ♦ • The Texas Floods. New Your, Sept, 21.

CORRUPTION IN HIGH PLACES. Jacksonville, Fla., Sopt. 21. The most shameful and disgraceful evi dence of partisanship was shown by the .decision of Judge Archibald In holding Harney Richard for trial. Archibald says in effect that in his opinion the evidence of a singlo ne gro, whoso testimony was fully im peached, is of greater value than the positive testimony of twelve or more white men of the highest standing and respectability. Thcdeoislon has outraged the entire community. It was foreshadowed by tho presence of Stearns, Dennis, Hicks, Walton, and other Radicals in the city. Richard mis been held in the sum of *10,(100 to appear for trial next month at Fcrnandina.

If one grain of Vaccine Virus, taken from tho cow’s udder and kept dry for years, then mois tened, and the keenest point of a Lancet flipped in it and drawn gently on the arm, so as not to draw tho blood, will so impregnate and chango the entiro system as to prevent the party vac cinated from taking the most loathsome dis eases (small pox) for an entire life; again, If the Celebrated Eucalyptus tree will change an unin habitable malarial district into a healthy, salu brious clime, by simply absorbing from the at mosphere the poison malaria, why will not the proper remedy, properly applied, neutralize and destroy the poison, known as malaria, and thus enable parties to inhabit malarial districts with impunity? Wo claim that there is such a remedy, and that we have prepared it, and applied it, and proved it in our Anti-malarial or Euchymial Belt—and that persons who will wear this Belt may inhabit the worst malarial districts without the fear oi having any diseases arising from malaria; such as Chills aud Fever, Billioua or Intermittent Fever, Yellow Fever, Jaundice, Kularged Liver and Spleen, Indigestion, Constipation aud Hem orrhoids, and tha it will cure all the above dis eases, except the worst cases of Billious and Yel low Fever. This is called an Anti-malarial or Euchymial Belt, as it corrects tlie humors of the oody aud produces a healthy action, invigorating the sys tem, aud thus enabling it to per.orm its various duties without fearing the effects of malaria in the least. It has been tried iu thousands of cases without a failure. They eau be obtained from the proprietors iu any quantity at the Powell Building, junction of Broad and Peachtree streets, Atlanta, Ga. Price for a single Belt $3, or $5 with a guaran tee that it will cure or the money refunded. N. 8.-—None genuine without the trade mark is stamped upon them. Drs. LOVE k WILLSON, sole proprietors in the United States. Address, LOVE & WILLSON, Room No. 8, Powell Building, Atlanta, Oa. A liberal discount made to the trade. Caution.—This Belt or Pad, like all articles of merit, is being imitated by parties who ary try ing to put up a worthless article, as there is not a living person, besides ourselveß, that knows the ingredients in it. We are the patentees, aud have our Belt protected by a Trade Mark. Sure Cure.—ln another column will be found two remarkable certificates about the efficacy of Drs. Willson k Love’s Malarial Belts. The diffi culty in the way of using these belts is that they are so simple that few can believe that there is any virtue in them. When a patient is told to use one he is very much like Naamau when told that, to cure his leprosy, ho had only to bathe in the river Jordan. Hon. John E. Ward says that during his stay in China, as Minister, these belts were used with great as preventives of cholera. We know a case where a lady had been suffering with chills for more than a year, and was finally Induced to adopt one of these belts. She has not had a return of the chills since, and she is fully persuaded that it is owing to the belt. Dr. Willson’s terms are very fair—no cure, no l>ay. #rKcad the following certificates : Atlanta, Ga., June 5, 1875. Messrs. Love & Willson: Gentlemen—ln Aprl last I was taken sick with regular Fever and Ague, having it every alternate day. After it had run on me for two weeks, I was induced to try oue of your Anti-malarial belts; so I discarded all medicine, aud simply wore one of your Belts, us directed, and my Agiio became lighter each suc cessive time thereafter for some three or four times, when it left me entirely, with a good appe tite and clear skin; and iu future, if 1 should ever have a Chill or Ague, I would want one of your Pads, and no physic. Wishing everybody that may be ho unfortunate as to have Chills and Fever may be fortunate enough to get one of your Belts, I am, respectfully, etc., W. J. Wilson. Atlanta, Ga., June 3, 1876. Dhh. Love A Willson: On the first day of December last I was taken with Chills aud Fever iu Thomasville, Southwes tern Ga., and was treated for the same by three eminent physicians who were able to stop it only for a few days at a time. It made such inroads on my constitution that my physician pronoun ced me to be in the first stages of consumption, wh eu I accidentally met up with Drs. Love k Will son’s Anti-malarial Belt, which has entirely cured me. 1 have had but one chill since, aud that was the first day alter putting it on. lam now iu as good health us I ever was iu my lile, and think this Belt a God-send to the afflicted. J. M. Mathews. Cannon House, Atlanta, Ga., June 4, 1875. Some nine years ago I contracted malaria in Savannah, Ga., from which I have suffered, at times, ever siuce, until I met up with Drs. Love k Willson’s Anti-malarial Belt some three months ago. 1 have worn it continually, aud have had no chill siuce, aud find my general health, which lias been poor, much improved. I would recoin tuend it to others suffering with malaria. B. A. Wallace. Macon, Ga., June 4, 1876. Friend Hodgson: I received your letter of the 26th ult., off yesterday. I have boon off on a fish ing excursion and just returned. The people of this town don’t chill worth a cent yet. I have sold two of the pads, and that 1 did the very hour I first received them, one to one of our conductors, and to Mr. Vaughn, a Clerk in tho office. They both say that they tried Quinine and other remedies, aud that they failed till they put on the pad ; since then they have bad no more Chills or Fever, and they recommend them to ev erybody. ***** Alex. Mathews, The above pads were sent for us by Dr. Hodg son, who is addressed as above. AnuKviLLK C. IL, 8. C., July 16. Drs. Love Ii Willson, Atlanta, Ga:—Gentle men—l have been a sufferer from chills and fever for (19) nineteen years, and have uned.aU of the popular remedies, but only had temporary relief until about three months since, I was induced, by your agent, Captain W. R. White, to wear one of your “Anti-Marial Belts.” I have not had a chill since putting it on. It has enabled me to look alter my farming interest more closely, aud ex pose myself to rain and sunshine more than for nineteen years. It has been worth to me, in feelings aud absolute results, not less than five hundred dollars. I cheerfully recommend it to all "shakers.” Respectfully, etc., JAMES McCRARY. Atlanta, Ga., August 7tb, 1876. Dux. Love k Willson Dear Sirs—l have been having chills, caused from living In a malarious district, for seven years. During that time I have taken ounces of Quinine, with which I have usually checked them for a while, but they have invariably returned as soon as I would leave off the use of the medicine. Having taken Arse nic and Htricbuine, aud nearly ovary chill remedy I ever heard of. I procured, a mouth siuce, one of your “Anti-Malarial Belts," which I have worn, and during this time I have had only one chili, which was brought on by being exposed to night air ami getting wet. It has done me more good than all the internal remedies put to gether which I have taken in the past seven years. I am very gratefully and respectfully yours, WILLIAM CRENSHAW, Dentist. N.
