R AND PROVISIONS.
By the amount of guano purchased
one can [art lly ascer:a'n the ex
tent to which cotton planting will he
increased or decreased in this section of
Georgia the present year. Reason
teaches and experience demonstrates
that a policy of planting too much cot
ton here is a fallacious one, and one
which will if persisted in prove discs*
trous to the country. In the lower por
tions of the State where cotton has al
ways been a staple product, and where
the soil and climate are adapted to its
culture it is tmremunerativi as a whole
crop where supplies must be obtained
from the N< rihwest, and within the last
few years the planters of that part of
the country have been devoting more
attention to stock and provisions. Here
in Upper Georgia wherever attempted
cotton has proved an unprofitable crop,
and the last few years has produced an
abandonment of so much planting, and
so soon as this section begins to make
provisions and stock their chief objects
of attention, the farmers will find they
have adopted a policy by which the ag
riculture of the country will soon com.
pare with that of any section in the
Union. Take cotton, as a chief crop,
calculate cost of fertilizers, the provis
ions purchased, cost of labor, and coat
of marketing, and the losses, in this
country, and the farmer will find his
finances yearly getting lower and his
farm fast descending to a condition of
decay. Theamount;of provisions made
last jear is enabling the farmers to get
through the hard times, and we hope
this will inspire none to revive the dan
gerous experiments of a fe.v years back
when vast amounts of land was devo*
ted to cottoD, in the hope of bringing
money into the country.
The people of North Georgia have
the soil and climate and the natural ad
vantages,which would with an improved
system of agriculture enable the people
of this section to feel independent of
hard times, and bring about a healthy
state ol affairs not yet experienced since
(he close of the civil war.
The electoral bill as reported by the
joint committee of Congress came up in
the Senate on Thursday, and was pass
ed by a vote of 47 to 17. It will be im
mediately taken up in the House and
there is no doubt of its passage there.
The President will sign it and the pro*
posed Commission v. ill be at once ap
pointed. On the first day of February
under the terms of the bill the count will
begin, and by the last of’ that month if
not before, the people will know the re*
suit of the great question which has
agitated the country since November.
The Legislature has been balloting for
U. S. Senator sinco Tuesday without a
choice as yet. The leading candidates
have been Hill and Norwood with Smith
and Johnson receiving a small vote. It
is now more than likely that a man who
has not yet been voted for will finally
be the winner and it is thought to be
not at all improbable that that man is
lion. Jwph E. Brown.
Broad'erini's NewvYork Letter.
New York, Jan. 23, 1877.
Editor Calhoun 1 lines :
In the letters which I propose to send
you, it is my intention in each one,
aside from the general news aud gossip
of the city, to give a sketch of prom
inent building or public place, which I
trust will be of interest to your read
ers; and if any of them should he
fortunate or unfortunate enough to visit
this great moral Lazeretto, these letters
may serve as a sort of guide; and if
not always telling people where to go,
I hope to be able to tell them what
places to avoid.
It seems especially appiopriate that
[ should begin my journey from the
Gold-room. I select this place for a
start, for the reason that those who
know me best will acquit me at once
of any interested motive. The Gold*
room! —there is magic in the very
name. The sound of it is associated
s ih all the glories of the earth, the
sight of it realizes more than the vis
ions of’Alladin, and the jingle of it sur
passes the sweetest music that ever
lured the luckless mariner to the rocks
and the quicksands, when chanted by
the syrens of the sea. The millions
who have heard of the Goid-room, and
who have watched with anxious hearts
the rise and the fall of the shining
metal, very naturally suppose that the
Gold'room is a sort of glittering temple
where Midas sits enthroned in his glo
ry, and tho glittering sheen of his
gilded vestments throws a pale yellow
light over the eager multitude that
crowd around to offer sacrifice at his
shining altar. Alas for the romance of
speculation, nothing more unpoetical
can be imagin and than the inside of the
Gold room. The interior is begrimed
and diugy, aud tho style cf the doer
bears a close lesembiante to the ar
ranpemi nt of a second-class dog-p't
The Gold-room fronts on New street,
a few doors from Wall, and adjoins the
Stock Exchange. It occupies the first
and second stories above the basement
of rather an inslgnifi jant-looking l uild -
ing running from 12 to 16 New street
but however unprepossessing the ex
terior, the inferior is infinitely more
disappointing. The room itself has a
miserable, unswept, unwashed kind of
appearance that leads one to think that
the bus'nessof gold°buying is net only
disreputable but dirty. If you wish to
get a good look at the gold-gamblers,
step up with me into the filthy little
gallery that occupies the south end of
the building—look out where you sit
down, or you may stick fast. You sec
they have sheathed the top of the rail
ing with sheet iron or zinc to keep it
from the jack-knives of the vandals who
sit here daily and watch the rise and
the fall of gold.
There may possibly be somewhere an
aristocracy of goldobuyers ; if so, they
are seldom seen upon Change. The
floor is cut up into a series ot rings,
each one, toward the center, being a
short step below the other; the center
is occupied by a disreputeblelooking
fountain. In the middle, the water-jet
is a consumptive-looking little figure,
standing on lily leaves that were gilded
once, but the tinsel has all worn off
and they look just exactly what they
are—counterfeit. The great body of
brokers who occupy the floor have a
hard, leathery, car>worn appearance,
like men whose minds are ill at ease,
and whose consciences (if they have
any) are exceedingly troublesome.—
Many of them wear their hats cocked
on one side, sport fancy neck-ties and
very loud vests, and meeting them away
from their place of business, you would
be favorably impressed with their
knowledge of faro, draw i poker and
seven-up. Gold at 105|, one can
scarcely realize the state of affairs in
this o'd room when it went up suddenly
to 200. Sitting here in this wretched
little gallery, I close my eyes, and in au
instant I am transported back to that
memorable Friday, nearly four years
ago, the name of which shall be Black
in the calendar forever. The morning
broke dark and lowering, as if portend
ing the comiDg storm. All day long
the tide had been lashed into irresisti
ble fury, like the waves of an angry
sea. Wild crowds of financial wreck*
ers and buccaneers were anxiously
waiting the stranding of the mighty
ship freighted with a nation’s credit..
She was already among the rocks and
the quicksands, and false lights gleamed
from eTery headland and rock along
the shor- ; ruin, ruin, ruin was every
where ; death was riding abroad upon
the blast, hut just at the moment when
hope seemed lost, a crash of thumb
was heard, the lightning had struck. t>ui
not ihe ship ; it had fallen among tin
robbers who were endeavoring to de<-
stroy her, and that one flash nad light
ed the heavens long enough to show
tho ship the pathway to safety The
great body of wretched gamblers st ruck
down on that black day never appeared
on Change again except as beggais or
borrowers; most of them got their
deserts. Fisk fell by the hand of an
assassin. Charley J., —“Handsome
Charley,” as we used to call him blew
out his brains in Paris. Fat Tom
Marston, whose dinners at Delmoaico *
were like the feasts of Ileleogabnlus,
died a pauper at Bellevue, and was
buried in an unmarked grave on Black
well’s'lsland. Ned Maicy, who for
years was a marked man in Harlem
Lane and the Park, whose spanking
bays would only take dust from the old
Commodore or Bonner, and whose gor
geous diamond pin and ring were as
well known as John Morisot’s club*
house, died in extieme poverty in a
wretched lodging in London—deserted
by all who had known him in his pros
perous days.
Of the desperate crowd whose names
that day has made infamous, one man
yet remains a financial power in tin
land. Yet in the length and breadth
of this Union, I cannot conceive a life
more scathed, lonely and bloomless.—
When Jim Fisk fell, I saw strong men
and tender women weep teats of as bit
tor grief as ever fell from mortal eyes
l have seen others cling with unfalter>
ing affection fur years to Stokes, the
man who slew him. When Rubet stein,
the murderer of Sarah Alexander, be*
came so filthy aud loathsome that keep
ers and strangers shrank from him as
if he were a leper, there were a moth-'
er, wife and children who still regarded
him with almost unutterable love. But
Jay Gould seems to have no friends nor
to want any —no one speaks kiodij ol
him —no good that he has dui*e has
ever come to light—charity passes by
h is threshold and love seems to find no
place within his soul. He goes on pi
ling up stocks and gold—gold and
stocks —to be spent by Heaven only
knows who. His name is fa iliar on
Change as that of the boat-man who
died a week ago, worth nearly a
hundred mill'ons. Yet among the
thousands brought in contact with him
in the business of daily life, you nev. r
hear for him one werd of love, or kind
ness, or respect. Perhaps his punish
ment is yet to come. It is said he fears
assassination—like that which befel his
dead partner. Let him fall in that or
any other way,there will be few mourn
ers at his grave.
Astor. Btewart und Vanderbilt, the
representatives of nearly two hundred
and eighty millions of dollars, have
passed away within a few months, and
yet the mighty tide of life rolls down
Broadway as though they had never
been.
Business of all kinds is still terribly
depressed ; crowds of beggars swarm
from house to house. The most until
ring efforts on the pait of our charita
ble institutions have been unable to
cope with this terrible poverty that sur
rounds us in this evil aud disastrous
time. It seems frightful that people
should die of starvation iu the midst of
our populous cities; but they do. God
help them through this bitter and try
ing season. Our churches are crowded,
and seats rent almost as high as ever.
I understand that Dr. Deems is terri
blydown on Beecher bacausa he thought
that Bliss, the “Sweet Singer,” who
perished in the Ashtabula disaster, had
done more good with “Fluid the FoH”
than andurbilt had done with his
hundred millions. Certain it is that
there were few who wept for the dead
Commodore, except John Morrissey and
Dr. Deems, while hundreds of thous*
ands who had never locked his
face shed bitter and scalding tears o<‘
genuine love a id affection for the sweet
and gentle singer of Zion. Deems says
that Beecher was wrong if he supposes
that Vanderbilt never sang hymns; and
next week I suppose he’ll be ready to
make affidavit that the old man never
sat down to a little game of draw with
out a hymn-book in his pocket. Dr.
Deems is right; the Commodore built
him a magnificent church and left him
820,0ti0 in cash. If he bad as
much ior me, I’d scalp the man that
said one word against him.
The heavy snowstorm on New Year’s
day has left our streets filled with sno'v
and ice. Broadway was never in such
miserable condition in the memory of
living men. When a thaw comes you
will need fins or a boat to get across the
street. The rivers are filled with float
ing ice. The other morning, I was two
hours crossing Fulton Ferry, which I
usually cross in five minutes. Our big
bridge is rapidly progressing; the foot
bridge is partially laid. We are now
anxiously waiting the count of the
Presidential vote, and hoping that who
ever is legally elected may be inaugu
rated, with support of a united and
happy" people.
1 am, truly yours, Broadbrim.

cures that are recorded in the annals of
history. Patients suffering for years from
the various diseases of the Lungs, after
trying different remedies, spending thou

DR.TUTT:
Dear Sir When in Aiken, last winter, I used your
Expectorant for my cough, and realized more benefit

I will not go to Florida nev.t winter as I intended.
Send me one dozen bottles, by express, for some

This certifies that I hnve recommended the use of
Dr. Tutt’s Expectorant for diseases of the lungs
for the past two years, and to my knowledge many
bottles have been used by my patients with the hap
piest results. In two eases where it wa3 thought con

effected a cure. R. H. SPRAGUE, M.D.
