CONDENSED NEWS.' Galveston, Texas,had 555 deaths last year. The population of Australia is 2,000" OdO. The Port Royal railroad will be sold on the 24th iastant, General Rosencrans is spending the winter in San Francisco. There were 4,8G7 persons in confine-, ment in the prison of Massachusetts last year. Six churches in New York city havt. buen notified to enlarge their moaus of exit. Marshal Bazairl? and his family arc now residing in great poverty in a little vi'lajc of the Asturia3. A son of Mr. Sankey. aged thirteen years,has commenced the work of evair gelization among youths of his own age. Thirty thousand arrests of intoxicated persons were made Jn London during the recent holiday season. The Fourth National Rank of New York has reduced its capital SI ,250,000 Jrom 85,000,000 to 83,750,000). Massachusetts has thirty six militia companies and her military expendi luics last year were 8175,600. MissThursby gets 84,000 a year and the use of a carriage for singing at Dr. Taylor’s church in New York. Governor Colquitt, in response to a j int aesolution, has sent a message to the General Assembly suggesting more econemy in public enpenditures. The question as to whether the right of suffrage shall be given to women in the new State of Colorado is to be sub jeeted to a vote of the people. Dr. J. P. Stovens, of Lee county, is spoken of as successor to Dr. E. M. Pendleton in the professorship ot the State Agricu’t iral College. The leaves of coffee are now used to make a beverage not much different from tea The new drink finds favor in Lon don, and has been introduced in Bos ton. A man in New Orleans advertises that he will give tuition in-law, religion, and journalism, “fittiug anybody to become an able lawyer, clergyman, or editor in one year." A wonderful temperance revival in Pittsburgh and that neighborhood has made 10,000 converts, and the excite ment is growing. Ten churches are crowded nightly by enthusiastic meet ings. A congregation of Roman Catholics in Rome N. Y., has gone over in a body to the Episcopal church. The mem bers are Germans, and the movement grew out of a quarrel with the priest. Over eight hundred cigar makers are out of employment in New York city on account of their inability to obtain licenses as manufacturers. The introduction of American beef in‘o England has caused a great reduc tion in the prices of both native and for eign meats by reason of the great com petition which it has caused. The name of General Jo9cph E. John ston has been mentioned in connection with the next Gubernatorial nomination in Virginia, but not having resided in the State the requisite three years,he is said to be constitutionally ineligible. A Toledo steamboat Captain,on hear ing of the death of Vanderbilt, decora ted his vessel gayly with flags anu streamers, and blew the whistle all day long. He said that the Commodore had once wronged him, and consequently he felt like celebrar'ng. Theie is very fine whistling in the Temple church on Sundays, says the London World. A legal gentleman, known for his tuneful pipe all over Eng land, “obliges” regularly, by way of ac companiment to the choir. The effect is said to be very sweet and pleasing. — It would be a good thing to give some formal sanction to this practice in the next revision o r the prayer book. Then ghall ha said, or sung or whistled/’ &3. 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. gnv SUlmttecmcuts.

TUTT'S EXPECTORANT. This unrivaled preparation has per formed some of the most astonishing 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 sands of dollars in traveling and doctor ing, have, by the use of a few bottles, entirely recovered their health. “WON’T GO TO FLORIDA.” New York, August 30,1372. DR.TUTT: Dear Sir When in Aiken, last winter, I used your Expectorant for my cough, and realized more benefit from it than anything I ever took. lam so well that I will not go to Florida nev.t winter as I intended. Send me one dozen bottles, by express, for some friends. ALFRED CUSHING, 123 West Thirty-first Street. Boston, January 11,1874. 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 firmed consumption had taken place the Expectorant effected a cure. R. H.
