WooDHULL AND OLAFLIM

For the first time we have inspected
the weekly" published in New York
under the management of these two wo-
men, who raise the standard of Progress,
free thought and untrammelled lives"
The ENTREE of these sisters Of infamous
repute on the march of progress, was
first made as Bankers and Brokers.
Notwithstanding the gusto of Americans
to assert independence, which they send
cloudward in volumes of smoke, spread
eagle speeches and sky-rockets, there was
murmur Of surprise, even in Babylon,
when their cards appeared. Boadicea
had outwitted the Romans. Joan of Arc
had discomfitted the English, and Eliza
beth had destroyed the Armada, why
should not these creatures break the way
for future generations, and earn notori-
ETY.? Progress demanded it. Witch
craft had taken wings; abolitionism was
EFFETE; spiritualism was manifested by
any set of dummies out of pine table.
Mormonism was an old story, and the
polygamist was man. Woodruff leads
off, and defends her contempt Of marital
restraints by being welded at once to
two husbands. Clanin assumes the role
of the heroine, and becomes the Colonel
of n regiment of colored troops. The
bankers and brokers' office looms up,
and these nondcscript beings, fcdgcd

THE HOPE OF THE SOUTH

There are very many who look to a
revolution Of public sentiment. that vii.
overturn existing laws, and restore the
South to her merited position, but their
hope of being befriended by a popular
uprising is as vain as that of the Budd-
hist who makes his yearly rounds of pen
ance to dumb, deaf, ard sightless God.
To suppose that the Democracy of the
north is either able or willing to effect
the change desired, is to contest the most
stubborn proofs to the contrary. The
monied monopoly drive the wheels of
machinery at Washington, and the gov.
ernment is grated in and ufea The
wealth of the Northern States. To re-
verse the interest of that section, is to
war against billions of capital invested
in securities that are founded on just such
a government as they were loaned to
purchase. The straight-out effort to
elect Seymour and Blair, and the late
abortive attempt to place Horace Gree
ley in the Presidential chair, show the
strength of the opposition, composed as
it is, of avowed Republicans and interest
blinded Democrats. Again, the densely
crowded North is too gloatcd with its
prosperity and affairs to care jot for
anything outside of its limits. Its jaun-
diced eye may rest q moment on the
highly colorcd picture drawn by hired
traducers to paint the horrors of Ku-
Kluxism and like goblins, while it COM
placently allows the fastidious gumbo to
choose between roasted missionary or
boiled philanthropist. There is no rea-
sonable shadow of hope to be expected
from any revulsion of sentiment on the
part of the North; and while We wait in
apathy, we are losing valuable time.
What, then, is to be donef Georgia, in
her Convention for lettering the pros
poets of that State, tells us: "Bc up and
doing" Immigration is the first step ;
bring in every settler who is not pau
per, show him that the climate is the
best on the globe, that the resources are
unparalleled; that the Southern people
are anxious to affiliate and unite with
him for mutual good, and the idle
streams will sing busy song of thrift
and the forests will disappear before the
axe of the settler, who, domicilcd among
us, will bring intelligence and strength
to save the State from ruin.

amusement.

Our town vas visited during the past
week by Prof Mason, Psychologist and
professor of various scientific attainmcnts,
as the following account of his lecture,
given by one of his audience on Monday
night, will testify:
con monday evening last our Town
was favored with lecture from q certain
Prof. Mason, on Science, &c.
He impressed it upon his audience
that he was either an accomplished
humbug or an escaped lunatic. Just us
the meeting was called to order in walked
the Town Constable demanding license,
in the name of the City Fathers. The
Professor claimed that his ectnre was.
private and free one, and the aforesaid
constable being batflcd, "vamoosed the
rancho"
He commenced the scientific lecture
by proclaiming, that although this was
"A free and private lecture, each one pres
ent was expected to fork out fifty cents
to pay for hall, lights, &c. which reason
able request many acceeded to.
Astronomy was then lightly treated
upon, apparently culled from "Loomis
Treatise of Astronomy"
He then informed lis, that he had trav-
elled through Egypt, and the Garden
of Eden, and said that he felt MS if he
WAS i'll heaven during his sojourn there.
His explanation ofa good portion OF
the Bible, knocked in the head all other
theories ever pnt forward
God, he informed us, did not make this
world in six days, but in six millions of
years, and that we are pigmics compared
with Lot and his family.
Lot was 16 feet high, his wife Is, and
his daughters increased in gcometrical
proportion. Solomon was 81 feet in
height, and Goliah's stature conld not be
asccrtaired (we suppose because ladders
had not been invented). The science of
Phrcnology was next enlarged upon--giv-
ing as reason why parents should know
something about it, that they might keep
i'll check the evil propensites of their
children save them from the penitentiary
and gallows. Hc explained as n theory
of his own the descent of man from the
brute, but his audience recognized the
idea, as having originated i'll the fertile
imagination of Mr. Darwin.
The Professor must have been relig-
iously inclined in his youth. He inform
ed us that he went to a Presbyterian
Seminary, and after being there three
months, he stumpcd all the professors,
who were so amazed at his questions
which were SO profound and deep that
they concluded he had better depart from
the institution. Equally marvellous tales
followed, and when in the middle of IL
fdisquisition on n mans head, majority
of his unappreciativc audience left, with
the impression that he was the greatest
man out"
We take leave of the scientific gentle
man by stating that he left us n letter
charging The "i'gtsz" with. dsczseing
against his ability to pay our bill of
printing.

THE GEORGIA STATE AGRICULTU-
RAJ CONVENTION

THE GEORGIA STATE AGRICULTU-
RAJ con YENTION
Ihaugurates all era of true progress
for the empire State, which will place
Georgia as far ahead of her Southern sis-
ters in prosperity rs she is in the blessing
ola sound and praiseworthy State gov
crnment. The manufacturing interest of
Georgia has been key note since the
war. Cotton factories, wooden mills, iron
foundries aud Touring mills are hum
ming from the Savannah to the Chatta-
hoochee, and the dividends reverting to
the stockholders are largely beyond the
most sanguine calculations of those inte-
rested. The fabrics woven by the Geor-
gia looms are of the coarser kind, and
the products of the smelling furnace are
confined to railway iron and rough cast
ing, still they pay; pay from twenty-five
to fifty per cent. and what is more &C.
rious there is constant drain upon tho
bordering States for labor, which is lost
to them, and proportionate gain for
Georgia. The progressive strides of
Georgia are owing to her government.
Could q General Gordan be elected in
South Carolina, in Louisiana, in Ala
bama or Florida? Until such true men,
true in interest, in principle, in life, and
in action, are put where peoples all is
at stake, we may reasonably expect that
all is to be frittcred away in stealing and
JoUER coMIQUE. The Rev. G. w. How
ard addressed the Convention on the sub.
ject Of "Immmigration" alluding to
Oglethorpe, the settler of Yamacraw, he
skctch9d the scene of wilderness res
cucd from the Indian, and the beasts of
prey, and changed to commonwealth of
virtuous and happy people. Again he
saw it swept by an enemy who bran
dishcd the fendsh torch rather than the
sword, and now that the wave of fire had
passed, hig State battled no more with
the wild beast nor the savage, but with
men of our own race and language, who
used might rs right, and denied the
South the very rights of government they
claimed for themselves. ITO place the
South in her proper position, and secure
for her a brighter grandeur" the clo-
quent speaker said eve need three essen
tials, Time, capital and labor. God has
given us the natural means of greatness
to profusion. Time will afford ample
verge and opportunity, and in addition
to our strong arms and willing hearts,
Europe will give us capital and labor if
we seek them Alright"
Col. Aiken addressed the convention
OH the subject Of the Patrons of Hus-
bandry," and was too we'll received for
our comments Agriculture and manu-
facturcs are the future strength of the
South. Goals have been carried to New
castle too long for our credit, The idea
