In 1873 Andy Johnson became Gover
nor of Tennssee, and during the can
vass preceding his election he appeared
at a public meeting with a drawn pistol.
Laying it on the desk before him, he
said : “Follow citizens, I have been in
formed that part of business to be trans
acted on the present occasion is tho as
sassination of the individual who now
has the honor of addressing you. I beg
respectfully to propose that this bo the
first business in order. Therefore, if
®ny man has come here to-night for the
purpose indicated, I do not say let him
speak, but let him shoot.” After wait
ing a moment with his pistol in his hand,
lie continued : “Gentlemen, it appears
that I have been misinformed. I will
now proceed to address you on the sub
ject which has called us together.”
Peterson’s Magazine (the Lady’s
National) is already on our table for
September, and is an unusually fine nun>
ber, even of this popular periodical. Tho
principal engraving is a beautiful steel
plate, ” The Little Marauders,” after a
picture by Bougereau, the great French
artist. The double-size, colored, steel
ftkshion-plate gives the early fall styles
all very elegant, and is beautiful even
as a picture. Frank Lee Benedict be
gins a spirited novilet, which is capi
tally illustrated. The powerful and ab
sorbing serial, “ The Lady Ilose,”by
Mrs. Ann S. Stephens, deepens in inter
est. “The First Quarrel” is another
story of rare pathos and beauty. The
prico of “ Peterson’s” is only two dol
lars a year, postage pro-paid; and to
clubs it is even lower, the publisher
claims it is the cheapest and best lady’s
book in the world. He already begins
to throw out hints of tire great things
he is going to do for the Centennial
year, and as he always keeps his prom-*
ises, it would be well for persons who
design getting up clubs, and earning the
splendid premiums he offers, to be on
th*. alert. Specimen copies are sent,
gratis, to facilitate this purpose. Ad

Senator Norwoods Propheej.
In a speech at OxfordJla., last week,
Senator Norwood predicted that strong
opposition would* yet bo developed
among the Northern people to negro
Biffrago. He said in substance :
Wealth and education will never be
acquired by the colored-people asra race.
They lack thrift, economy and forecast.
Citizenship will never elevate them to
.‘be standard of the white race. They
have no capacity for self-government,
fhmrigration has always been impeded
Dy slavery. Many men at the North
favored emancipation because they be
lieved it would build up our industries.
The Northern capitalist, tradesmen and
laborers are against the negro. While
emancipation- diminished our wealth it
increased our political power. Negroes
vote for men and not measures,and their
800,000 votes will he added to ours.
The expansion of the people North will
get rid of all in the way of the Union.
When to preserve the Union these men
mule war upon their brethren, will they
shrink’ in such a case as this ? The ne
gro is gravitntiirg toward us. The peo
ple of the North will soon rise and de
mand a surrender of the ehetive fran- !

I>i versifying Southern C rops.
One of the most encouraging circum
stances in the agricultural conditions
and prospects of the South, says the
Baltimore Sun, is the experiment which
has been successfully made in the way of
a diversity of products. Hitherto King
Cotton has allowed no rival, nor even
accessory, near his throne. A predic
tion ten years ago that any of the cot
ton raising States would in 1875' have
a surplus of cereals would have excited
an incredulous smile. Yet the State of
Tennessee, Arkansas, Mississippi and
Alabama will thi-syear have enough and
to spare. In addition to this unpreced
ented grain yield, the old staple,l hough
reduced in acreage, has by a more thor
ough system of cultivation,rewarded the
farmers as never before, and they boast
of an independence that has heretofore
be£n unknown to that portion of the
country. They claim that with their
surplus of breadstuff’s they can obtain
the m a’'sby which they will be enabled
to hold their cotton, take advantage of
the market, sell for cash instead of fol
lowing the practice Dat has almost uni
versally obtained of mortgaging their
crops early in the season at ruinous fig
ures. The agricultural resources and
capabilities of the South have never yet
been full} developed It is able to feed
itself as well as to clothe,in certain essen
tial respects, both itself and the world.
The sovereignty of cotton would never
have been disputed if it had enjoyed
the aid of such auxiliaries as the culti
vation of the cereals and manufacturing
industry.

Alov. 11. Stephens-—Honor to :
whom Honoris Due.
Although many believe and perhaps
justly that the Vice President of the
Southern Confederacy, enfeebled by age
and infirmity, should have retired for
life to the qu’et shades of Liberty Hall,
after the completion of his great histor
ical wotk, yet few are aware of his ac
tive, living interest in passing events,
and the noble benefactions of this dis
tinguished Georgian. The latter have
ever been characteristic of the man. —
Self-made himself, he has never failed
to sympathize with those who were j
struggling for education and independ- !
ence, constantly extending to such a
helping hand. Eternity alone will dis
close how many have been through his
agency from poverty and obscurity, to
positions of usefulness, honor and trust
in the State. No man was ever more
modest and reticent in the bestowment
of these kindnesses, or sought more dil
igently to conceal them.
These remarks are predicated upon a
notable instance which has recently
fallen under the observation of the
writer, fully illustrating tho character
istics of tho great statesman.
The case is that of young ,in the
University of Georgia. Sprang from an
excelient and wealthy family, who was
ruined by the war,this youth,ambitious,
talented and virtuous, sough-t in vain
for the means to defray the cost of an
education, and, when despairing of suc
cess, was taken up by Mr, Stephens and
liberally provided for. The matter was
kept a profound secret, however, nor
should have been mentioned here, had
it not somehow reached the ears of his
students. His name, however, we sup
press. This youth, fired by the deter
mination to prove himself worthy of the
kindness of his benefactor, at once lent
every energy of mind and body to the
prosecution of his studies, and rapidly
rose to distinction in his class. Exemp
lary also in deportment, he became a fa
vorite with his instructors, and is now
one of the most thorough scholars and
popular young men within the walls of
the University. Indeed so rapid has
been his progress that the Faculty pro
moted him to the position of tutor to fill
a vacancy, the duties of which office he
performs with entire satisfaction, besides
continuing his own college course, now
nearly completed.
It affords us great satisfaction to re
cord this interesting incident, which
dounds equally to the honor and praise
of Mr. Stephens and hi3 protege. The
latter,to his credit be it said, has already
be gun to discharge the pecuniary obli
gation under which he has been placed.
To suppress such facts is a crime against
justice and humanity— Macon Tele

Avery intelligent old darkey was met

been wrought by old Father Time.”
“Yaas,” replied Joe. “You’member

odd times, and made money nuff to buv
myself. I paid old massa SI,OOO for
my freedom.”
“Yes,” said Mr. Wilson, “I remem

“Wish I had dat money now,” mused
the old darkey.
“Well, yes,” replied Mr. Wilson, “it
would be quite a fortune for you.”
“Lots o’ fortune sar,” said the old

“ Holt on von minud,” called out the

“You said it would cost nothing,”
said the wet-haired man.
“Noddings!” echoed the bath-keeper
“I no say such a dings.”
“What’s that leadin’ on your sign,
then-?” inquired the disputant.
“Dot sign reads: ’Turkish bats, sul
pherbats, vapor bats and sponge bats,’”
replied the man of the lobster com
plexion.
“Well,” said the other, as he edged
away, ’’that last’s it; bein,s I didn’t

Crops* in the West.
Cincinnnati, August s.—lt is dffi
cult at this time to form more than a
rough estimate of the damage done to
the crops by the rains and overflow in
the Ohio valley, but it is believed they
will be heavy. The wheat crop has
suffered severely by the cold weather in
the spring, and half of what was plant
ed was killed in winter. Of the remain
der it is believed a third i3 hopelessly
lost, and the remaining two-thirds par
tially damaged; though it is believed
the damage will be much less than is
generally expected. The acreage of
wheat sown i3 larger than last year, and
the relative yield compared with last
year will be 50 per cent. less. The
chief damage to corn is in the river
bottoms, where the crop is a total loss.
That planted on high ground has suf
fered principally from being broken
down. The acreage was much larger
than last year and the prospects before
the floods were favorable for an unusu
ally Heavy crop. It is now thought
there will be a fair average crop, not
much, if any, less than last year. Much
depends, however, upon the favorable
weather for tlie remainder of the sea
son. The oat crop Luis suffered more
severely than either wheat or corn, hav
ing been beaten flat and so badly dam-
it will be impossible to har
vest it. The per cent, saved will be
very small. Barley suffered severely
from cold weather, and but little was
growing of this grain. The quantity
saved in condition for milling will be
comparatively insignificant. Hay prom
ises a partial crop, but of inferior qual
ty-
A Ncigliborly Call in Alabama.
Mr. Bryers, a Justice of the Peace
at Perdido Station, Baldwin county,had
a stock range, cn which the stock of his
neighbors ran at will. For some cause
he resolved to fence other people’s stock
off his range, and he did fence them off,
leaving it open to his only. A family
by the name of Hadley and another by
the name of Stewart, friends and rela
tives each of the other,became enraged
at Bryern’ conduct On Monday last
the Hadleys and Stewarts, six in num
ber, rode up to Bryers’ residence and
called him out. They were armed with
double-barrelled shotguns; but not
dreaming that they meant to harm him,
the old man and one of his boys went
out to meet them. As these left their
door, the six men at the gate opened
fire upon them, killing both. Another
son of Bryers’, who was in the house
when the filing began, seized a shotgun
and rifle and ran into the yard. Mean
while, however, the party at the gate
had taken to cover, and those of them
whose weapons had not been discharged
in the first onset, shot the third son,their
shot taking effect in his side. But he
held his ground bravely, and with such
effect that he succeeded in killing two
of his assailants and wounding a third.
The others fled .—Montgomery Advertiser.
Cornered Him at Last.—A Geor
gia miller, in recent conversation with
oimi of our grain buyers, incidently re
marked that dealers in his section
wouldn’t need any of our corn this
year.
“Well, we have raised it for you,” re
plied the Fayetteville merchant “and
you are bound to take it.”
“No, we are independent now—Geor
gia will have enough corn of her own,*’
retorted the miller.
“Well, we’ll feed it to hogs and sell
you the meat.”
“We are safe there too,” continued
the miller, l 'our people will furnish their
own pork.”
Nothing daunted, our Fayetteville
friend discharged his Parthian shaft:
“Well, we’ll make our corn into whis*-
ky, and you can’t get around buying
that.”
Georgia admitted that he had him
there.— Fagetter Me Exp rcss.
Avery curious case has deen discov
ered at the Treasury Department by the
examination of some old accounts. A
few days ago an officer of the War Depart
meni received notice from the Treasury
that there was a balance af $1,600 in
his favor on an old account. The officer
knew no such balance was due him, and
caused an examination of the origin of
the account to be made. The diseovery
wae then made that by an error in the
accounting many years ago this amount
had been deducted from the account of
an officer in another department, where
it probably belonged and credited to
this officer in the War Department. This
discovery explains a very lamer, table
suicide which occurred about the time
the original error was made. The
officer from whose account this sum had
been wrongfully deducted was charged
with a defalcation of that amount. He
was notable to prove his innocence, and
took his own life. The accounts are
fflaid to show clearly that the suicide is
due to the criminal error of some clerk
in the war days.
A Norwich business man, riding on
the cars to Utica, deeply absorbed in
schemes of accumulation, after eating an
apple, opened the car window and
threw out his knife, and stuck the core
in his pocket. He did not discover his
error until he tried to cut his finger
nails with the apple stem.
