Military Institute for some time, and has taught
with distinguished ability. The personal re-
semblance to his father, Gen. Robert E. Lee, is
said to be very striking
= The Fifth Congressional District of Geor-
gia, in 1868, gave Radical majority of 5000,
and sent only two representatives out of twenty
seven to the Legislature, with one State sena-
tor. Now, according to the Augusta Chronicle,
it rolls up Democratic majority of 5000, while
the Democrats elect twenty-three representa-
tives and all three of the State senators.
= More than half the oatrages that suddenly
start into existence about election time in the
Southern States are instigated by the Repub-
licans as q pretext for little bayonet practice
ut the polls Itnow appears thar North Caro-
lima negro has given the names OF forty MEM
bers of the Union League ip that State, who
were concerned in barn buTnings and outrages
that occurred little before last election.
"A Washington dispatch to the New York
Tribune says that Senator Abbott, of North
Carolina, announces his intention to contest
the election of Gov. Vance to the Senate, upon
the ground that he received the votes of ma
iority of those who are not legally qualified as
members of the Legislature. It is charged
that there are q number of persons holding
seats who are disqualified under the fourteenth
amendment.
- The Columbia Union says that the down
passenger train on the Greenville and Colnm-
bia Railroad was nearly thrown from the track
near Williamson, on Friday last, by cross-tes
which had been piled upon the track by par
ties unknown. The ties were placed upon the
track at curve, where they could not be seen
by the engineer in time to stop the train, and
the engine struck the ties with such force as to
cause disagreeable shock to the cars, but they
remained upon the track uninjured.
- The late terrible catastrophe in Richmond
calls to mind the burning of the theatre on the
s6th of December 1911, when seventy victims,
including the Governor of Virginia, perished
in the flames; the confagration which laid
waste SO large a portion Of the town in 1865,
just before the end of the war; the fall of a
chain bridge in 1868; the loss of fiftysix lives
Mt the fall of part of the Capitol, and the i'm
mense destruction of property by the floods du-
ring the present year. The heroic endurance
of the people of Richmond under all their af-
hictions merits no less sympathy than admira-
ton.

Morgan Go. Medical Society

DR.. John Alexander furnishes
the following report of the doings OF
the Morgan County Medical Society
on Tuesday last:
Morgan County Medical Society
held its .Semi-annual meeting at DR..
Charles Robertson's Office, on Nov.
It'll 1871.
The exercises were spirited and in
teresting. DR.. j. H. Brown presented
a paper on Cancer of the Mormmary
Gland, and after stating different
modes of treatment concluded by sta
ting that, in his opinion, removal of
the gland by the knife afforded the
patient the best chance for life.
I. DR.. j E. Brown read a very creditable
paper on Practice, and DR.. Noyes one
on Physiology.
Society adjourned ate o'clock, ",
to meet at 2 o'clock, Z. NJ and mem
bers repaired to DR. Charles Robert
sons residence, where they were
sumptuously entertained.
Society met at time appointed, and
DR.. Robertson read a paper OH the
History of the Morgan County Medi-
cal Society, in which he stated that it
was organized thirty-two years ago,
and that only two or three of the origi-
nal members are now living. On mo-
ton, the Doctors paper was ordered
to be Published.
The subject of Dyptheria was pre-
sented by DR.. John Alexander, which
elected a very interesting discussion.
The Society adjourned to meet on
the Goth of December next, at which
time Drs Ewing, Rusk and Alexander
are to present papers on different
Medical questions
The meetings of the Society are
open to the public. Rev. l.. Mcclure
was present during the most of the
above meeting, and in a few remarks
before the Society, stated that this
was the third meeting of the kind he
had attended and that he thinks he
has been benefited thereby. lie has
learned that the object of the profess
ion is not merely to make money, but
a profession, the object of which is to
smooth the rough pathway of suffering
lie also stated that he
thought that if the public were better
acquaintedwith the interior workings
of the profession, that they would en-
terrain views that would be ~unfavora>
BILE to the claims of Quackery. The
Society wouldb be glad to have the pub
lie attend its meetings.

FROM a careful revision Of all that
we have seen, read and heard, we
gather that the crops throughout
the United States and Canada have
been in the maIn satisfactory not.
to say abundant. The wheat crop
has suffered somewhat from the
drouth early in the seaeon, and from
the chinch- bug IN certain localities,
and Ii is doubtful if the large estI-
mate of the crop will be realized.
Oats have been an abundant crop,
generally, and corn, though injured
IN some places by a dry summer,
viii be greatly above the average.
In European countries. with the
exception of France where the crop
Is seriously deficient, and in Eng
land, where the wheat crop is be-
low the average, n good void has
been secured. We may therefore
expect that the foreign demand,
though it will probably be good,
will not be excessive, and that
present prices may be maintained
for wheat aad -four. As European
population cannot be induced to
use corr rs an article Of food 1t
would be unwise to look to Ia EN-
rs a meaus for disposing of the
certain abundance of this crop.
But we find throughout the Western
States that hogs arei abundant.
These will furnish q mean of consul
mlng.a large proportion of the ex-
cess, and rs pork is very low q large
demand will probably arise, which
Will ease the market of the surplus.
The great fire in Chicago has con.
sumed considerable amount of the
large stock on hand there. Pork
and corn, reactIng IN tho market
very much on each other, necessa>
rily risv and fail together. Any
rise In pork. then, will therefore fa.
vorably effect corn. Throughout
Southern Illinois and Missouri the
drOuth has seriously shortened the
hay crop and late rasturage, and
generally throughout the country
hay Is scarce In the East tie de-
ticioncy is partly made mp among
the more thoughtful and forehand-
ed farmers by means of other fod-
der crops, aud though possibly 9TH
ers may have to get rid of a portion
of their stock, yet we do not look
for any necessary sacrifice OF values
on That account. Kansas is full of
cheap cattle from Texas, and drov-
ers r afraid of touching stock.

The idea that tho Eastern Ohio
will never be a paying line to the

IF the report that Brigham Young
has left Salt Lake City for good be
true, it shows 4 greater panic among
the Mormons than was imagined 10
exist. He evidently fears the applt.
cation of law t o his case, and p~articu-
la'ly breads an arraignment on a
charge of murder. 1t is difficult to be-
lieve that he breads conviction. or
fears the punishment that will follow.
llislife has had in it 30 much of TO
nance that it might be supposed that
he still might accept punishment as a
new development of romantic exper-
fence. If he has really lied to escape
the law, it may be accep-ed as true
that there are other crimes chargea-
BILE to him, the thought of which gives
him grave Apprehension. His flight
will hasten the crisis that impends
ov er his church.
