Again vve urge upon the reople the
importance of manifesting a deep inter
est in preliminary political meetings by
attendance upon them arid lively action
in their deliberations. Already a dis
contented portion of the State is feeling
for a shadow of a supieion upon which
to rest a boltingstep, and a sharp eje
is open for the detection el anything
that bears the least resemblance to a
‘‘cut and dried” arrangement to force in
the choice of a few. — Albany News.
The Savannah News, nays : Some
of the leading citizens desire to know
what Mr. Estili meant by saying that
the Georgia newspapers wore ahead of
the towns in which they are published.
The meaning is obvious enough. A
newspaper makes a town. It msy i oast
of a collection of houses and a number
of inhabitants, but until it has its nows
paper it remains stagnant. A good
weekly newspaper is commercial agent
drummer archbuilder and bod.carrier
all in one.
The Atlanta Commonwea Ith says
We visited portions of Cobb andChcro
kee counties on Saturday.last, returning
ouMonday from Canton, and were enabl
ed by observation an examination to ap'
predate the alarm so generally felt and
expressed as to the condition of the wheat
crops. The rust vas plainly visible in
every Odd and on the fodder of almost
every stalk. Old observers differed in
opiniou as to probable results, but the
weight of conjecture impressed us that
the yield will inevitably be cut short 30
to 50 per cent. Tho crop through
upper Georgia was three weeks
ago more promising than any crop
for many years, but this blighting
plague is everywhere, and the planters
have despaired of an average yield
We saw more cotton than coni along the
road, and were told that vast quantities
of commercial fertilizers had been us and
this spring. It was a sorry sight, and
aad was the thought that the cotton
belt folly of ’7O was being repeated in
the mountains in 7G. A century old,
and still they fail to protit by experi
ence.
Tiif, Freedman's Bank, wlßch served
the colored people of the country for sev
eral years as a rat hole wherein thoy
could deposit their savings with tho as
- that they would not have tho
opportunity to invest them in unwise
speculations, has at last been turned in
side out, and presents a spectacle decid
edly disheartening tr the depositors.—
The names of the personswho fattend
on the credulity of the ignorant freed
men are given to the world, and are
mostly included in the pestiferous body
known as the Distrietiring. Gen. O. O
Howard, the Christian soldier, figured
in tho transaction as “honorary trusteo”
oftho institution The remu' cration
received for his invaluablescrvice is not
stated, but the General’s career in Was
im'ton is a guarantee that he has a lib
eral estimate of his worth as a financial
manager. If the parties to whose doors
these shameless frauds have been traced
escape punishment uoder the law. it
will only prove another instance to il
lustrate the fact that the corrupt ring
wields a greater power in the District

A Wethodist “Swamp Angel.”
In tho Methodist General Conference
in Baltimore last week, during the de
bate on the report of the Committee on
tho Book Concern, appropriating £2,000
a ye u r to tho Now Orleans Christian
Advocate, and making it a conference
paper, Rev. I)r. Moody said : “ Old
Z*ck Taylor, the Joshua of modern
times, and by transfiguration the ‘rough
and ready’ of antiquity, had once plant,
ed the American Hug beyond our bor
ders, and Tom Corwin moved lo cut off
the supplier But Tom Corwin a Iter
wards confessed that on account of that
speech he had been crucified —dead,
buried, and descended into hell, [laught

him. [Laughter.] The same be said
of the man who would cut off the sup
plies from the South. lie wanted this
paper at New Orleans to play the part

[Ftoin our Regular Correspondent.]
You will recollect when we parted
last week I left you Lu tho grand trail 7 *
sept of the Main Hail, gazing up at the
tableau of ail nati ms whiia I stood listen
ing to, the slpctidid music cf G ilmore’s
band above the glorious harmony of
which the cornet of Arbuckle rose sweet
and clear, bringing back a thousand
happy memories of home.
The overture to Obercfn ended. 1
received a kindly nod of recognition
from the great impresserio, who looked
like some mighty potentate all covered
with, his sparkling orders and ribbons,
and a warm shake of.the hand, from the
greatest of cornet players; and then
Wandered off to sec the sights fooling
very much like Betsy Bubbett on the
occasion of her first visit to New
York.
To f ursuo anything like a settled
course of description, as I propose to do
and go through the tiling regulaily and
couifatably, you need to stuff cotton in
vonr ears and shut one eye tight, other
wise pretty things allure you on every side'
and you an constantly heat ing of some
wonderful things that somebody else has
seen, and you fid yourself running off
to seeSt, too, and night comes, and you
feel that you have not done what yon
wanted to do.
Bight around the centre o: the Main
Hall is jx perfect museum of w nders
John Bu’l, Jean Orapeau, Die dock
Vun Sauer Knott and brother Jon affirm
ar# here bro ght face to face, and it’s
Kara to tell who is on top. Go into
tho magnificent exhibit ol Kiingtou of
Birniingh. m, England, and you would
be willing at once to make an afaduvat
that there was nothing more beautiful
on tho face ol the earth ; and no won
dor, for before you stands that marvel
of the silversmith's skill, the magnificent
Helicon vase, which took six years to
make, and oust, £30,000. Close to it is
the famous Miltonian shield, cove l ed
with scenes from Paradise L jst in ‘.race-*
ry exquisitely beautiful; elegant tables
flower stands, and a multitude of other
beautiful things that entangle your feet
as in a web, so that you find it almost
impossible lo get away—don t pause
shut your eyes and rush out, or we
shall get no further than Elington’e to
day. Here we are beset again right m
front of us is (lie exhibit of Marehand
of Paris; with its inexhaustible wealth
of bronzes, statues and articles of virtu.
Let us pause lor a moment to examine
these marvelous figures at ‘lie gate,
that tell the story of the Sabines, what
savage triumph gloats on the faeo of the
man ; what inexpressible agony is de
picted on the countenance ol the woman
the agony and terror of utter he Spies 3
ness.
Glorious figures and shapes in every
coueievable form of beauty surround
you, and you inwardly exclaim there is
nothing can excel Marehand; not so
fast my friend, a few more steps further
and we come to the display of Tiffany
& Cos the diamond impoiters and jewel
lers of New York. Talk about vases
just look at their ; not one or t vo, but
twenty or thirty; racing cups, piles of
silverware, and all of them miracles of
beauty. Marehand has laded out of
sight, Elkington is forgotten, and you
really begin to doubt if you ever saw
any vases or silverware before worth
mentioning. No, sir ; you quietly re
mark to yourself again, I’ve seen it all
now there is nothing further left in
ibis world to soc in the w>y of silver
ware.
Hold vour horses ; didn't I toll you.
)Ou were just like Betsy Bobbett, right
around the corner. Look here this is
the exhibit of the Gorham Silverware
Company, glittering like the palace of
Alandin, and all of American manufact
ure wonders of artistic elegance and
grace are they standing as they do in
friendly comjetition with the splendid
creation of genius from other and older
lands. They, too have a magnificent.
Centennial Vase, expressly manufacture
ed fir the occasion; spoons, dishes,
pitchers, vases knives forks, and a mul
titude of articles, which I did not dare
to ask the name of for fear oi exposing
my ignorance. V hat a wonderful
brain it was to conceive, and how cun
ning' the hand to execute tnese exquisite
models of beauty; beauty that no
mortal pen can describe, and which
it is worth an ordinary life to see.
But we must nut stop here all day
among ihe silver. There is much to see
besides the agent; come over here;
this is the exhibit ot Daniels, of Lon
! don, the great exponent and creator of
! modern ceramic art. How old Bernard
de Paliis.-y would have loved him, and
well he might, for Daniels entered into
pcssesbion of the promised land, which
tho old prophet of Poissons only saw
from the mountain tops, and afar off,
and died without entering. Lucky
Daniels, in whose ante-room lords and
dukes stand waiting to get a sight of
I old dishes and tea ots, that a cosier
monger would have considered.dear at
eighteen pence. There is much of c-eau*
ty in many of these specimens, I con
fess, with their fretwork of leaves and
flowers, and their giittering rainbow
hues ; but when it couies to animals and
all sorts of creeping things, I must ad
mit that with my plebian tastes, I do
not relish a lizard s tail in my soup, or
finding a toad among my green peas
and asparagus. Of course, all ibis fas
tidiousness is traceable to my imperfect
educat on; but I never did like the nas
ty critters, and I never can. Nice lit
tle naked boys, with fi.-hes’ tails, from
the handies of pitchers and tureens;
and an old lady, who stood gazing on
them yesterday, in firmed me they were
Ooopids, fur which information I, of
course felt very much obliged.

We had a butcher’s parade on Wed

ami smoothly running of all the family
sewing machines. Jt is remarkable, not
Only fox the range and variety of its sew

.:;mm of texture wliicn it will sew witii
e.pu“l facility and perfection, using s iik
twist, linen, or cotton thread, fine or ctar-m
.making the inter-elastic lock stitch, alike
on both sides of the fabric sewn. Thus
beaver cloth, or leather, may be sewn with
great strength and uniformity of stitch

wearying inst -umeut may be adjusted lbr
fne work on gauze or gossamer tissue, li
the tucking of tarlatan, or ruffling, cr’al
mo*t any other Work which' delicate fingers
have be* n known to perform.
rhirs having long been t he popular and
practical machines for manufacturing pur
poses, some dealers, using ‘-the tricks of
trade,” take advantage of this in trying to
persuade purchasers that our Family Ma
chine is not equal, for family sewing to our
Manufacturing Machines for manufacturing
purposes. Rut purchasers—and they art
apt to examine carefully before choosing
have net been ii erely persuaded, but con
vinced that our new family >* acliine embod

OFFICIAL CEPOhZ
Jim following is a correct report of tho.
(ales of sewing machines made by the Lad
ing companies during the p ast lour years.
A careful examination of the figures will
show that the “ (SINGER” have largely in
cr-ased each year, while, on the contrary, a
corresponding decrease is shown in the sales
reported by all other companies. This is a
highly satisfactory result to us, and is only
another pr.of that ‘-merit always has its re
ward.”
