THE FLOODS.
The condition of the people on the
Mississippi from the vecent overflows is
rather deplorable. Nine of the largest
cotton parishes of Louisiana arc inun
dated and 250,000 acres of cotton and
100.000 acres of corn are destroyed,
without counting small farms and gar
dens. Twelve parishes, producing an
nually 30,000 hogsheads sugar, are al
so overflowed. Twenty-five thousaud
people, it iB estimated, are suffering
for food, and the number is increasing.
Crops are also washed out in the up
lands by rain. Aid ia being extended
to the sufferers by the people all over
the land and tho Secretary ofV/ar has di
rected the issue of 20,000 rations daily
f r twenty-five days, and also a proper
supply of army clothing for the U3e of
the destitute. The cost to the Govern

A VISIT TO CAMPBELL COUNTY.
,f lias been our pleasure to spend a
and yor so the past week in Campbell
county, and although not a visit for the
pecial purpose of “ taking notes,” the
recollections of our short stay were
every way so pleasant we feel constrain
ed to write briefly.
We passed the greater portion of our
time at Fairburn, the new county site.
This place is situated on the Atlanta
and West Point Railroad about twenty
miles rest, of Atlanta, and has since
the -cuioval of the Court House from
Cao pbekton within the last few years,
rooo ved in many ways with remarka
ble rapidity—utterly outstripping her
neighbors.
wpbcll ounity is blessed with the
1 -*t society, is rather thickly populated,
iid embraces several varieties of soil.—
lie lands lying on tie Chattahoochee
ri v r (.‘i nsist of a 1 lack loam, and pro
duce excellent crops of grain and cot
ta n.
!iv farmers, though behind with
ili r work, on acconnt of continued
sius, seem net to Le seriously dis
• *“d. and appear to be doing
‘ h ito gut tii ir crops in manage
v i c lit ion. Ci.ru is up but looks
vuovr, wheat is only injured in low
vt\ t -by the rains. We learned there
is a cm -idcrabk* decrease since last
in the amount of cotton planted
it ‘.is section. The people arc just
now fairly overcoming the devastating
e Test a of the “kite unpleasantness.”
We visited during our stay the beau
tlfurl little town of Palmetto, in the
1 wer part of the county, which is also
situated on the Atlanta and West Point
Railroad and is of some commercial
v i -auce. This place has recently j
pi..c* a a feather in its cap by using the |
I w.r vested in it by the Legislature in 1
r /ad t killing rut the liquor trade. J
. r :s x ectable majority of the vt fcia of 1
• . tr/.nis it has carried the “prohibi** 1
< -r s i'.n,closingitsbarreompand
‘ iii g a stop to the issuing of whisky
kc. s o in its incorporation. The temper*
anco element seems to be rather strong
in this section of Georgia. A grand
temperance demonstration rag held at
Palmetto on Friday k6t at d'a lodge of
Good Tempi ars ’vns organ Red by Hon
J. J. Hickman with a timn hership <*f
over two hundred. The?® people seem
to be determined to drivo the last nail
in the coffin of King Alcohol as he ex
ists in their midst before they cease
their effort#. The iodaencc of the best
people in the section is Used for the
good of the cauee. We wovld be glad
to see tho same interest developed in
North Georgia.
During our stay we met with valued
friends with whom we had become ac
quainted a few years ago, and to many
of them we are indebted for special
courtesies. We also formed a number
of new and agreeable acquaintances. —
May a wc again in the future have the
pleasure of visiting this favored section
of Georgia.
We are in receipt of the following,

THE SOUTH.
The Tribune says : Ex Gov. Curtiu
of Pennsylvania has been spending sev
al months in the Southern States, for
the purpose of recruiting his health,
and is now journeying through the west
ern cities. At every turn lie seem a to
he beset with newspaper reporters, anx
ious to obtain hi* views on current
events. x\t St. Louis a reporter of the
Times had a long conversation with him,
and obtained from him some interesting
observations on the condition of the
Southern State sl . lie expressed him
self as greatly distressed at the lamen
table situation in Louisiana and South
Carolina, and was convinced that, so
soon as the North became fully inform**
ed of affairs there, a reaction would
take place in favor of those oppressed
States He told a reporter of the Chi
cago Times that he was astonished at
the aiavvelous growth of that city, and
then, alluding again to the South, he
said : “ I don’t know what ean be done
for the South. It’s life is gone. It
seems hopelessly ruined. One sees lit
tle but wastes in the country, empty
habitations and stores in the cities, and
hears nothing but the refrain, ‘ Debts,
debts, debts.’ A nightmare broods
over the whole South, and the people
can not shake it off.”
While the above is true ofsome ofthe
Sonthern States, yet we claim that the
picture is too deplorable for Georgia.—
It is true, she has had her troubles, but
she is now tho happiest of them all.—
The star of hepe shines brightly over
her, and unless some unknown calamity
blights her prospects, her destiny is
prosperity.
CARTE RSVLLLE ITEMS.
Our city was enliveued on the even
ing of the 27th ult. by a contest be
tween a patent pump and a patent dou
ble-bucket water drawer. The agents
for both of the above happened to call
on us at the same time and of course,
wanted to accommodate us with their
implements tor drawing water. The
pump raised 75 gallons of water in five
minutes, and the bucket not quite so
mueh, but the contest was so close that
I suppose the judges failed to decide
who beat.
The first term of our County Court
convened on the 27th—Judge J. C.
Branson oc the bench. It only lasted
one and a half days and adjourned, as
it was only a docket term ) some few
criminal cases were disposed of.
Jack Frost pot in his appearaee with
us on the 30th ult., and his visit proved
fatal to a good many beans and Irish
potatoes —no other damage. We hope
he will defgr any more visits until next
winter.
Our Odd Fellows’ lot :ge meets on
Thursday night of each week.
Our Sentinel, with its keen eye, is
always on the alert. It has found that
the “feelings of our clever friend, Rev
E. S. V. Briant, of our city, were hurt
with Freeman, of the Calhoun Times,
for dubbing him doctor.” Well, good
sentinels are sometimes mistaken.—
Parson briant never shows mueh sign
cf anger, though lio lometitoes reproves.
May the Sentinel keep a good watch.

The very sudden death occurred in
our city on the 30th ult., of Mr. W. H.
Coleman, a painter by trade. Your re
porter saw him on the street about 12
M., and at the setting of the sun be was

of paralysis. How suddenly we can be

A ervzy negro of our city took charge
of a citiacn’f horse the other night
where he was tied and spent the remain
der of the night in riding about the
city. On the next morniig. when found,
he very reluctantly gave up his animal,
saying : “ De Lord dropped him down
to me, an’ he’s my boss.” The old dar

The young lawyers of our city pic

they were accompanied by a portion of

We had a terrible storm of wind and

JOAB.
The Great Bridge across the Missis
sippi at St. Louis has been completed
amid general rejoicing. This bridge
connects St. Louis with East St.
Louis, iu the State of Illinois. The
river at that point is 1,500 feet wide.
It is spanned by three arches of 500
feet length inside the piers on which
they rest. Iu its construction ahrome
steel has been used. It has a tensile
strain double that of ordinary steel.—
The bridge is arranged for railway and
carriage tracks. It enters St. Louis
near its business centre. There is no
draw iu it for the passage of boats, and
as it is but sixty feet above high water,
only the smaller class of steamers can
pass under it without lowering their
chimneys. It is an enormous struct"
ure. It is claimed to be the most im
portant, or at least the most notable
railroad bridge iu the world. Its cost,
including approaches and tunnel, v. ill
not be less than $10,000,000. Asa
fete of engineering skill it takes the
very first rank. But great and remark
able as it is, the cry is raised against it
that it obstructs navigation. The
largest steamers find trouble in passing
under, it, and plans have been suggest
ed for a remedy. But so long as the
bridge stands—and that is likely to be
many years —there seems no other
course than the steamers to be built and
fitted with machinery for the easy low
ering of their smokestacks. It is evi
deit they must acknowledge obeisance
by a graceful bow.
Is He Bernier or Not?
Tho reported arrest of old Bender in
Utah has created no little sensation in
the State where his terrible crimes
were perpetrated. Fred. Lockley, for
merly of Leavenworth. Kansas, writes
to the Commercial that he has looked
the probable Bender squaro iu tho face,
and believes him to be the notorious
monster and bloody murderer ot Cher
ry v*le celebrity. Since his arrest he
has been playing the insanity dodge, and
pretends to understand nothing that is
said to him, though the correspondent
states that he has several times casually
•answered to the name of Bender. So
firm is Lockley’s conviction that the
man now in durance vile is the genuine
Bender, that he proposes a plan for his
punishment that will at once eomaiend
itself to every lover of poetic justice.—
His suggestion is that the culprit be
hung up by the thumbs and worked
into mincemeat by the process of being
perforated with a gimlet. This opera
tion may seem like tortue, aud, if car
ried out, the Benders might feel consid
erably bored over it, but certain it is
that no punishment is too severe for the
enormous crimes comitted by them.—
The story of this family, living for
months over the secreted bodies of their
victims, is the most horrible on record,
exceeding in atrocity the most disgust
tug tales of outrage in the French cap
ital, and their final capture will be a
very graeilying item of dcv.-b to the
people of Kansas.
A French physician, Dr. Bu'-toq of
Lyon3, claims that he has discovered a
remedy for hydrophobia. When a per
non has been bitten by a mad dog, he
should for seven successive days take a
Russian vapor bath of 134 to 144 de
grees Fahrenheit. This bath may he
quickly prepared by putting three or
four red hot bricks into a tub of water,
over which the patient must sit in a
cane-bottomed or willow chair for fif
teen or twenty minutes. After the die
easo has declared itself, one vapor bath
is sufficient, but the patient must be
strictly confined to his. room uatii the
cure is complete Dr. Butssoo says that
he has applied this method of treat
ment to more than eighty persons bit
ten by mad animals, and that he never
lost a single case. He discovered the
remedy when taking a vapor hath him
self for the purpose of killing himself
by suffocation after he had caught the
hydrophobia from the saliva of a pa
tient . When the bath w,i3 at about 94
Fahrenheit all the symptoms disap
peared as if by magic ai’.d never re
turned.

For Grant a Third Time.—A
Washington letter says : Since the
President’s veto Senator Coskiing has
openly, in the pres, nee of other Sena
tor*, declared for General Grant for a
third term. It is now said among Sen
ators that Senator Joukling and Secre
tary Fish were at the back of the Pres
ident in this matter of the vet >, and it
is believed by many that a tripatite al
liance, offensive and defensive, has been
formed between them ; t! at Gen. Grant
is to be run for a third term as the
nominee of the Republican party, and
that if his success is not assured
he wll transfer at the suspicious
moment ad his influence and upport to
Senator Conk ling.
In Praise of Georgia,
A Georgian gives bis State high
praise, and it is not far from being just.
He SR}- if a wall could be raised around
the commonwealth so high as to shat
out the re«t of the world, Georgia
would bs an empire in herself. In the
southern part they can produce vast
quantities of cotton, so fine that it will
sell quickly at eighty cents a pound )
and peaches without rotor disease, and
with no fear of frost, can be grown red
ripe by the first of June. A day's
journey to the north is the finest corn
and cotton-growing region in the whole
South ; there too, all vegetables thrive
and the apple, peach, cherry, plumb,
grape and pear. The State, too, po
sesses fabulous wealth in marble, iron,
lime and eoa! j and that precious metal,
gold, is not absent. But the author be
rates the people because they do not
develop their resources. They might
export large quantities of sugar ; they
might produce wool enough to run
many factories, giving employment to
thousands. It is urged that the way
to unbounded prosperity is to establish
the small farm system, by which the
laborer owns the land in fee ; then, as
in France, productions will be multi
plied teu fold, educational advantages
will be enjoyed, and all the social privi
leges secured. At present conditions
seem to be unfortunate, for we read that
in a recent public address Gov. Smith
conveyed the melancholy information
th;,t last year only 1,000 immigrants
came to Georgia, while 20,000 of her
citizens left the State.”
IhN
Our Dormant Energies.
Our bodies are not vigorous nor our
minds as clear as they might be. This re
mark is true of at least two-thirds of civil
ized society, and of these two-thirds prob
ably one-half is laboring under bodily
infirmities of a character likely to shorten
the lives of the sufferers. This is a melan
choly hi bit and furnishes abundant food
for reflection. Can the evil be mitigated ?
It ean. Lack of vitality is the primary
came of meat of the physical and mental
suffering to which we are .subjected, and
thermo: • a vitalizing medicinal agent is the
r ■ i-.j i-eu-.i > ed. Is there such a medicine ?
T •re is. Host'-iter’s Stomach lib ter s will
run-- :- .i de: • rgize the- mil and and body when
the life pew «r of the system is in a compar
atively dormant state. The languid, feeble,
desponding invalid is not aware of the lat
- nt enei gies that underlies his debility.—
lie thinks there is no electent of vigor left
in !•>. f. nme, when the fact is that his phys
ical capabilities are merely asleep and only
rep re waking up. Let him stimulate and
tone his animal machinery and endow it
with n*w motive power, through the agency
of this incomparable invigorant, and he.
will soon feel Lite a now man, or rather
like a man who has received anew lease of
life and the requisite health to enjoy it.—
Many business men suffer from chronic lan
guor- and depression caused by too close ap
plicator to business. Hard students arc
often oppressed with melancholy from a
like cause. "Icchanics and working men
are affected in the. same way as a result of
over labor. To all who are in this condi
tion, from whatever cause, Ho tetter’s Stom
ach Bitters will prove a signal blessing.—
It is a perfect panacea for physical debility
and mental gloom. It strengthens the body,
clears the mind and calms the nervous sys
tem ; while as a remedy for indigestion, bil
iousness, constipation, rheumatism, and in
termittent and remittent fevers, it. takes pre
cedence of all other medicines.
