The remainder was uninsu ed. A b ill was in progress at the hot:-l. and the cry of fire was promptly responded to. The burnt buiMtog* were located between V. A. Colev's an i th-livery stable, and were near the cotton warehouse. Fortunate'}- the winds were favorable or the loss might have been much more serious.” The Rome Tribune touches in its last issue on a subject of exceeding interest to the entire State, being the servant girl question. It says: ••We have repeatedly been requested to ask if our prepte cannot devise soma means to get rid of the existing house servant nuisance. It is true, as many have represented to us, that many of our present servants are utterly un rt-iiaide. and a great nuisance to housekeepers. Perbips the Chinese would bo an improve ment. and perhaps if a move was started in that direction that many of the ill-paid and almost starving seamstresses of the large cities would gladly accept places as servants in s uthern families, where they wou dbe we i treated. We will allow a reasonable sfo ein our columns for a discussion of this important and vexa*lons subject. At present the burden under which housekeepers aro suffering is one they should resolve not to bear.” The Rome Bulletin relates a sad instance of accidental death from the discharge of what was supposed to be aa uuloaded pistoi It seems that on Thursday last a Mr. Davis, of Ridge Valley, about eight miles from Rome, gave his little son the supposed harmless weapon to clean. The little fellow while play ing with the pistol accidentally touched the trigger, causing the discharge of the contents into the head of an infant who was sitting on the il or. and instant death followed. We see it stated that “Uncle Remus'' has got into his fourth edition. Mr. J. C. Harris re ceived a letor from Appleton Cos stating that they had received a abiegram from a London publisher about its pub! cation there. The work is meeting with an unprecedented Sucre t*. Speaking of the Georgia Western, the t'kat tancoga Times says ‘One of the most emi nent railroad men in the South seid to the editor of the Times that we were right in ad v stag Atlanta to a-’andon the Georgi i Western and go for another connection with Chatta nooga. in order to cheapen coa*, iron and all other raw material used st the former city The prominent gentleman further raid the Cahiwba om pretty harsh words t scaped from the lips of b 'th. and finally Alfred made a plunge Henry with liis pooketfci i.'e.

They not only sold coal a tne same price as before the cold snap, and the demand began to be so great, but did all iu their pow'-r to supply every one, allowing each onty a quarter of a ton. In business such fa are very rare, and cannot fail to be appre ciated. Wood is also very scares, owing to the extreme cold weather. Yesterday quite a number of wagons loaded with wood came to the city, aud the haulers received almost any price they wished, some getting as much as fl for a 'two-horse' load. All sincerely wish for fair weather, but it seems as if we will have sometime to wait yet." The Atlanta Constitution notes the fact that the January Scribner contains a sketch by Colonel R M. Johnston, of Baltimore, which possesses a special interest for Georgians. It is entitled ‘The Expensive Treat of Colonel Grice.’ and, in unctuous but refined humor and vivid delineation of character, is altogether the finest piece of work Colonel Johnston has done, and this, as those who have read his 'Duxesborough Tales' know is saying a good dea l The sketch is thoroughly Georgian and local, but the humor and the treatment are managed through a literary perspective that is cosmopolitan in the highest and best sense. The skibful reproduction in print of what is knowu as the cracker dialect ought to be a revelation to the writers cn the Northern side who have recently attempted that sort of thing.” Florida Affairs. More visitors are reported in St. Augustine last month than during auy corresponding mouth of previous years. The St. Augustine Press states that Mr. Daniel J. Martin returned to that city on Tues day, the 2lt ult, having beo-.successful in re covering the body of his brother-in-law, Mr. Felipe Hernandez, who, with his wife, were lost on the "Vera Cruz." The body was fully identiflei and has been forwarde J North. Mr. Martin also made efforts to recover the re mains of his sister, but failed to do so, not withstanding the fact that the remains were buried n*ar the spot where her husband was disenterred. His failure is attributed to the want cf land m arks and the shifting and con stant moving of the sand on the beach. Mr. Martin states that he feels hopeful that the body of his sister will yet be found, a s the peo ple in the vicinity of the beach for miles back are ail deeply interested and will use every possible means to find the body. He speaks in the most flattering terms of the people of St. Augustine and on the coast where his sad duty called him, receiving, as he says, the kindest and most cordial treatment from all. The present cold spell it is thought will not materially injure the Florida orange trees, though in some cases the fruit was frozen. A dispatch to the Sun and Press from Sanford states that there is no appreciable injury from frost there, or in Sanford Grant. Oranges, iemong, pine apples, guavas, all right, but to matoes and some tender vegetables were cut down. Col Hart, of Palatka, thinks that the fruit on his grove opposite that city,on the east side of the river, is not injured. He had large fires built near the grove the night after the fretze, and the up-river btjats report seeing such fires all along the river that night. On Wednesday last a Northern visitor, ao companied by two men whom he supposed to be gentlemen, registered at a Jacksonville hotel. He had with hm a satchel containing a great deal of money, which he placed in his room. While he was at supper his coxpan i ns entered the room, stole all his money and i his watch, and made their escape. Thei whereabouts is not known. The Fernandina Express wants to get rid of the abominable nuisance of horses and cows running at large on the streets of th t city. On Saturday last, James A. Pickett, who kill ed James A. Campbell last September in a quarrel about some land, came into Jackson ville and surrendered him*elf. The family of the D!urderr Whitfield Walker, the lowest tempera ture was 30 degrees, going to prove that every where between here and there the freezing limit was reached, although probably but few old’ trees were injured, as the cold for several dais past has driven the sap iu the trees downward*. By the same tele gram it alsv appears that neither the oranges nor trees were injured iu that vicinity, but only the tender shoots just sprouting out. It is estimated that so far between one-third and one half of the orange crop of the State has been gathered and shipped. In a few days re turns will bng the inmates that it has been found necessary to remove him to a sep arate cage. The other birds instinctive ly recognized that this Corvine Albino was abnormal, and therefore terrible. Many of them became total abstainers from food and drink, through sheer fright, while he shared their quarters, and huddied together, shivering, at as great a distance from the fearful anoma ly as the limits of their prison would permit them to attain. In all respects, save his extraordinary hues, the raven is as other ravens. His appetite is appar ently insatiable, and be ministers to it with a formidable beak. He was found, with a coal-black brood of brothers and sisters, in a nest, built by his parents, ou the topmost branch of an old tree in the Georgenthal, a valley in Thuringen. This snow-white raven is at present one of the lions of the German capital. TnE Apostate’s Creed.—l believe in a chaotic nebula self-existent evolver of heaveu and earth: And in the differentiation of the origi nal homogeneous mass; its first begotten product which was self-formed into land and water, self-organized into plants and animals, reproduced in like species, further developed into higher orders, and ultimately refined, rationalized and perfected in maD; he descended from the monkey, ascended to the philosopher, and silteth down in the rites and cus toms of civilization under the laws of a developing sociology; from thence he shall come again by tbe disintegration of the heterogenized cosmos back into the original homogeneousness of chaos. 1 believe in the wholly impersonal ab solute; the wholly uncatholic church, the disunion of saints, the survival of the fittest, the persistence of force, the dispersion of the body, and in death everlasting. A. Bierbower, of Cincinnati. —Churchman. Chinese quack doctors do a large business in San Francisco. The large class of ignorant people, who elsewhere resort iu sickness to clairvoyants, there go to the Chinamen, whose horrible mixtures of reptiles and other things have frequently been described. It was lately discovered that the most noted of these practitioners was in the employ of white speculators, who advertised him extensively, and took the profits after paying hi in a small salary. He had been a fisherman, and knew nothing at all of medicine. It is said that China men, with their fearlessness of death, and their belief that every man will live as long as his Maker intended, have really little failli in medical science.

* on the Panama Canal. —Ex-Secrctary of the Navy Thompson, who is at present in New York, in the course of some conve sa tion Thursday touching the Panama canal, remarked: “If the project is car ried out, as I have no doubt it will be, there will bs large sums of money to be provisions, tools and sup plieo*bf various kinds, most of which ■will be spent in this country, and I can certainly see nothing unpatriotic in do ing all I can to help that inflow of money. As to whether the canal will pay or not, I can only say that it is a matter of busi ness, and capitalists would not invest in it if it did not promise to pay. My con nection with it is of the same sort. lam emphatically a private citizen, and have gone into the project on a purely busi ness basis." The year upon which we have just en tered promises to be one of great enter prises and general prosperity. Sur plus capital seeking investment will doubtless soon fled employment in the gigantic schemes now in process of consummation. It will require some sixty millions of dollars to build the Panama canal, about forty millions for the Northern Pacific Rail way enterprise, twenty millions for the contemplated Mexican railways, besides immense sums for railway extensions throughout the United States, as well as in England and France. Vast sums will also necessarily be expended in the wake of these gTeat enterprises, employing thousands of persons from the over populated sections of Europe and America. If the Minerva just unearthed at Athens be indeed a masterpiece of Phidias, as is averred, it is a priceless New Year’s gift to the modern world .fronrtire world of antiquity. That the news about a statute of Phidias was flashed in a few minutes from the Mayor of Athens to the Lord Mayor of London, .-hows how the world has been changing #ince the old sculptor flourished, twenty- f three hundred years and more ago. The Legislature of Illinois will, at its approaching session, be asked to pass a law making it an offense to sell, give, hire or loan a pistol or other deadly weapon to any minor. The enforcement of such a law would undoubtedly greatly reduce the lists of crime and accidents. New Cotton Mills at Vicksbnrg. Notwithstanding the open letter of Mr. E. A. Atkinson, of Boston, to a correspondent in New Orleans, express ing a doubt of the practicability of es tablishing cotton mills on a large scale at the South, the production of cotton foods in the region where the raw staple is produced has so far proved successful that it is gradually extending, not only at the points where cotton mills have al ready been established, but also as far South as Vicksburg, Mississippi, and New Orleans, La, where new mills are about to be built to keep pace with the development of the trade. In so far as Mr. Atkinson is of opinion that the finer qualities of cotton goods cannot be manufactured at this time at the South he is, says the Baltimore Sun, doubtless right. The production of such goods requires a special adaptation of the machinery of the mills, and also, to some extent, a special training on the part of the operatives. But the plainer cotton fabrics can be manufactured at the South quite as well as in New Eng land, and at a less cost for material, and also for operators’ wages, the cost of living being less, and that of fuel and clothing almost nominal. In cotton prints it will probably requiie years to elapse before the South can compete with New England, which, until recently, has had to import its best designs from England, although the Boston Art School is now producing some original designs for cotton prints and other art purposes of acknowledged merit. It may be noted in this connection that cotton manufactories are also springing up in the West, and that Louisville, Kv., now proposes to undertake the manu facture of cotton goods, the falls of the Ohio offering an admirable and almost inexhaustible water power for the pur pose. Indeed it is predicted by enter prising and enthusiastic citizens that with the manufactories already estab lished there, and others projected, the water power of the falls wiil be put under contribution for a variety of pur poses, and that Louisville is destined to become a large manufacturing city. It is not surprising that the rapid growth of cotton and other manufactur ing establishments in the South and West have had the effect to modify New England views on the subject of a pro tective tariff. Not only do her manu facturers see in the West and South a competition arising that can successfully contend with her without the protection she has so long exclusively enjoyed, but which will ultimately unite the great West and South in bonds of mutual in terest. New England and the Present Pro tective Tariff. New Eugland is beginning to talk, too, about reducing the present tariff. It is not, as the Wilmington Star suggests, because it is too high to please them or too high to meet their pecuniary advan tages, but they are afraid that its inequali ties and iniquities will arouse such an op position finally that all protection will be swept away. Hence it is that papers of the Springfield (Massachusetts) Repub lican kind are looking around to see what can be done to continue the New England monopoly, and to prevent the West from rivaling its manufactures. It sees a huge spectre rising up in the great and growing West, that shakes its head ominously and makes the New England hair stand on end. Here is what the Republican says: "As tbe prairies fill up with large towns they gather the cheap female labor and the skill necessary to manu facturing development, and every year more and more goods will bo made up among the population which will con sume them. Especially will this be the ease if the present exorbitant policy is kept in force. The true New Eueland policy should be to reduce the tariff ma terially before it raises domestic compe tition to a ruinous stress, and transfers to the West industries which must be the sole reliance of the commu nities which now live upon them. The West looks upon New Eng land as the pampered favorite of the tariff; it is their policy to secure to themselves what they believe to be its benefits, and with money rusting for lack of employment at four per cent, interest, the Western people will no longer con fine their attention to agriculture. They will build paper mills, cotton and woolen mills and iron works; dtey will make shotguns, pistols, skates, watches, needles, engines, cars, blankets, en velopes, paper wares, boots and shoe*, ginghams, tools, brass faucets, wire screens, and everything, in short, which employ the thousands of busy fingers of Springfield and Holyoke, if we keep up the tariff as a standing bid and provoca tion for them to undertake these enter prises.’’ The Cadet Whittaker Court Martial. The Baltimore Gazette thinks that the court martial, which has been called to meet at West Point on the 18th inst. to try Cadet Whittaker of West Point, will have little more than a mere formality to go through with, unless it is organized to acquit. The court of in quiry made such a searching and thor ough investigation that it is perfectly plain that there is nothing for a court martial to do but review the finding of the previous court. There is no pre tence that any new facts have been de veloped, or that any new evidence will be presented, and the country is prepared to find the new investigation a mere farce —a cover for political favoritism. General Schofield has been supplanted at West Point by General Howard, to serve the political ends of the Republi can party, and it is part of his missi m to graduate Whittaker. Unless all signs fail, this court martial will lie nothing but the means to secure that end. A Washington letter says there is in army circles much criticism over the or dering of a court martial in Whittaker’s case. “Such a course is said not only to le without precedent, but to be plainly illegal. The President, in determining upon such action, did so against tbe strenuous protest of two of the ablest members of the Cabinet It is generally said that had Whittaker been a white cadet not half the fuss would have been made over his case, and he would have been dismissed from the academy long ago.” Following the example of Grant, Mr. Hayes proposes to install his servitors in the White House in fat offices before he retires. The poet Rogers, his private secretary, it is said, is to be made Re corder of Deeds of the District of Colum bia, an office which is reputed to be worth from SIO,OOO to $15,000 per annum. Tbe present incumbent is a prominent Hebrew who aided Mr, Hayes on the stump when he was de feated for the Presidency, and it would now seem that he proposes to cast him off. But be it remembered that Rogers is an Ohio man. The Richmond Dispatch, in a review of Royall on Tourgee, 6ays of the latter’s rascally conduct in North Carolina: “The evidence produced by Mr. Roy all proves that Judge Tourgee’s share of plunder in one transaction which has come to light was nearly $4,000. This whole transaction is well described. Its history will enable our Northern friend* to silence Tourgee’s admirers, and also to understand whv he and others of the same tribe could not remain in the South.” The Proposed Bureau of Commerce. Commodore Shufcldt, of the United States Navy, has written a letter for pub lication, wherein he advocates at consid erable length the establishment of a Bureau of Commerce, under the Secre tary of the Navy, officered by naval officers, either on the active or retired list. The objects of such a bureau, as stated by Commodore Shufeldt, are: First, to examine into the character and condition of all foreign bound ships under the American flag, to report if they are over laden or badly laden, or if they are unseaworthy. Second, to in spect the seamen’s quarters, to see if they are fit for human being3 to live in, to see that the crew are provided with proper clothing, and that the articles sold to them by the master are of good quality and reasonable cost; to see that the pro visions for the voyage are sufficient and wholesome. Third, to register all sea men on foreign bound ships, to ascertain if they have their complement, and if that complement is sufficient to work the ship without undue overwork to the crew; on the return of any such vessel to have the authority to examine the records of the voyage for the purpose of ascertaining the final disposition of the crew, or any member of it. Fourth. In conjunction with duly constituted boards at the different sea ports, to examine into the character and qualification, moral and professional, of masters and mates of all American vessels engaged m foreign trade, etc. Commodore Shufeldt refers to the bad treatment of sailors at sea, and contends that the establishment of such a bureau as he suggests would remedy this glaring evil. The Com modore concludes his letter by saying: “Who can measure the good accom plished by the careful inspection Of ships outward bound? Piimsoil has saved thousands of lives and millions of dollars by the law which defines the ‘load mark’ of every vessel. Self inter est does not restrain owners from over loading ships, or masters from taking them to sea. You may ask, ‘Where are our ships,’ and I ask, ‘Where are our men to man them V Trade and Commerce in 1880. The statistics of United States trade and commerce for the year 1880 are most gratifying in character. Our exports and imports aggregate $1,594,000,000, with balance of trade in our favor of $73,000,000, and a ne.t coin and bullion receipt of $84,000,000 in excess of all imports of specie. Our imports aggre gate $760,989,050, of which not more than half were manufactures. Our exports foot up $833,294,246, of which breadstuffs covered $288,- 036,835, cotton $211,535,905, provisions $121,900,814, and illuminating oils $34,903,011. In these products the United States ha3 no competition, the foreign demand is always increasing,and our supply is limited only by the de mand. We have exported during the year some $16,879,107 in tobacco, $9,- 981,418 in manufactured cotton, $13,- 344,195 in horned cattle, $5,404,418 in furs, $7,689,232 in tallow, $5,086,118 in leather, $6,259,827 in oil cake and $2,- 717,563 in refined sugar. American ves sel carried $280,005,497 of these ex ports and imports, while $1,309,466,590 were carried in foreign vessels. The New Cabinet. A Washington letter says: “It is said very positively that Gen. Garfield has determined to have no one from Ohio in his Cabinet, and that he has so expressed himself frequently within the last few weeks. The Secretary of the Treasury, it is reported, will be a Western man, and the name most frequently mentioned in this connection is James F. Wilson, of lowa, who w T as formerly one of the most respected and influential members of the House of Representatives, and who declined to go into Gen. Grant’s Cabinet as Secretary of State. It is thought also by Gen. Garfield’s friends that there is foundation for the rumors that Mr. Filley, of Missouri, will be in vited into tbe Cabinet, most likely as Postmaster General. If Gen. Ben. Har rison is not elected Senator from In diana, it is stated with confidence that he will be appointed in the Cabinet. Either Representative Levi P. Morton, or Thomas C. Platt, of New York, are put down as probable members of the new Cabinet. It is represented that Gen. Garfield has signified to President Hayes that he will be very much obliged to him if he will take care to fill all vacancies that occur between this time and the fourth of March, as Gen. Garfield say* he wan's to escape the importunities of office seekers as long as lie can.” The Business Outlook.—The num ber of failures in nearly every section of the country is surprisingly large, and a good many more are expected in Janu ary. At the bottom of most of them is found either transactions iu futures or operations in cigars or coffee, both of which are, commercially speaking, in a bad way. Speculation in stocks is also bearing fruit in present or prospective loss for many people. Still tbe general condition of business seems to be good. Guilty of Wrong. Some people have a fashion of confusing excellent remedies with the large mas 6 of “patent medicines,” and in this they are guilty of a wrong. There are some advertised remedies fully worth ail that Is asked for them, and one at least we know of— Hop Bitters. The writer has had occasion to use the Bit ters In just such a climate as we have most of the year in Bay City, and has always found them to be first-class and reliable, doing all that is claimed for them.— Tribune.

To the Citizens of Chatham County: The un dersigned, members ot the Savannah bar, beg leave to submit for your consideration our conviction that the public interests will be promoted by the retention of Major John O. Ferrill in his present position of Ordi nary. We have had full opportunity of ascer taining his fitness for the office, and we bear unsolicited and cheerful testimony to that fitness. He has been tried for a num ber of years and found in every way quali fied. The business and duties of the office are now carried ou and discharged in a most satisfactory manner by Major Ferrill *nd his efficient assistants. The office of Ordinary, a* you are Rtvare, is a most Important, one. Frequently legal questions of au Intricate character have to be determined by the Ordinary eit-ing as Judge. We are quite sure that the duties of the office cannot be properly met save by an incumbent of experience, intelligence and of considerable legal information. You have found the present incumbent efficient and acceptable. You know him to be an honorable citizen, a good lawyer, courteous gentleman aDd an excellent offi cer. There exists, so far as we ctn learn, no reason for any chauge. There are many reasons why you should make no change. Your fellow citlzsns: A. R. Lawton, W. Grayson Mann, Henry B. Tompkins, B. A.

They are ground with great scientific accuracy, are free from chromatic aberra tions, and produce a brightness and distinctness of vision not before attained in spectacles. Manufactured by the Bpencer Optical Manu facturing Company, New York. For sale by responsible agents in every city in the Union. F. D. JORDAN.
