THE cotton mills at Augusta, Geor-
gia, pay dividend of twenty-eight per
cent. The Colorado is as valuable as
the Savannah or Chattahoochee or
Oconee, furnishing a power that digs
gold from richer mines in Georgia than
were ever opened at Lesdville. Every
woman and child in the vicinity of
great cotton mills becomes producer,
and beggars are impossible where
whole families, and not men alone,
as in Texas, make bread and
win perfect independence. Opera
tives are not starved in Southern
as in new and old England mills, and
simply because the cost of fuel, that
constitu es one-fourth of the cost of
living in colder ATTITUDES than this,
may be reduced TO very little, where
we haYe nine months of summer
time and coal fields are easily accessi-
BILE by cheap railways. The time will
come when Austin's greatest wealth
and resources will be discovered in
the water power given by the Colorado
and in the cotton crop, from which we
derive less than half the money that
should fall to the share of the country
producing it. The same country should
that those farmers who, with the Glenn
mems attachment, sell their cotton in
the shape of thread, make more than
twice the money that falls to the share
of their neighbors, who ship the raw
material. Two or three good crops
and sane, sensible law-making here
and in Washington will soon create
capital enough for the contamination
of tasks like this suggested by the sue.
cesses and good fortune of Georgians.

OONFEDERATE RECORDS.

Hon. Marcus ]. Wright is still en-
gagged, under authority of the Secre-
tary of War, in collecting and compil-
ing records of the late war, on the Con-
federate side, for the use of the gov
eminent. The object in this work Is
to prepare the way for the historian to
make a faithful record of events as they
really transpired. Everything pub
lished up t. this date, and that which
will be published, in the way of his
tory, for many years to come, is psrti-
san, most of it intensely so, and the
truth will only be told years hence,
when the snnalist, Invested of all sec
tlonal, partisan feeling, bases his work
upon the records, handed down from
the actors themselves on each side in
this great struggle. Mr.. Wright, un-
der the authority of the Secretary of
War, is compiling such records as are
furnished him, and before long they
will be published for preservation.
He invites all persons having records,
documents, memoranda or notes in ref
erence to the war to forward them
to the Secretary of War at once. II
desired he will have copies made and
the original Immediately returned.
Souvenirs may thus be retained and q
valuable service to posterty performed.
There should be no delay about this
matter. Forward papers at once.
Gen. VIM. Steele of this city is prepaI-
ing some to be forwarded, and he will
take charge of any turned over to aim,
and forward them likewise.

GovERNeR HENDRIcKs denies that
be ever denounced or censured Mr..
Tildsn in any way for his course after
the election in 1876. In regard TO the
statement which has lately got into
circulation that II he did notSobtain
the nomination next year he would
throw the weight of his influence
against the successful man, he spoke
IS follows:
That is unjust to me. shall sup
port any man whom my party will
nominate. I have no exclusive claim
on any nomination. The people, not
aspirants, are the judges in such mat
tiers. I regard Indiana &c q Democratic
State. and would be disappointed il
any nominee Of the party should fail
to carry it. At any rate he would re-
ceive all the assistance ] could give
him.

THE Marshall Herald takes it to
heart and is nightly grieved because
the STATESMAN said that Currie would
probably escape sit is saId," remarked
the STATE MAN, because the witnesses
will not attend. Who are these wit
nesses9 Does not everybody know
that they are Northern people, even as
CurrIe himself is of Kansas. If the
witnesses do not come whose fault, if
anybody's, will it te2 VIII the Inter
Ocean and Globe DenOcrdt blame us9
The STATESMAN was only anticipating
possibilities and probabilities and fore
Sailing our good newspaper friends of
Chicago and St. Louis, and yet the
Marshall Herald is very much sngered
about it. If the witnesses appear we
suggested that such are the laws and
courts and their rules and shrewdness
of lawyers, that continuances will pre-
vent trials until the witnesses die or
are worn out by the laws delays. Is
not this possibleG Have not such
things continually hsppened9 1t is
true of all courts of all the States and
affects in nothing the character of the
people of Texas. The Herdlds homily
is needless and its lofty indignation
Ridiculous.

B1s,lARck refuaes. h is alleged

BIsMARcK refuses, it is alleged, to
become party to q worlds conference
proposed to be held to discuss the sub
ject OF uniform international bi-metal-
ic currency. 1t seems that Congress-
man Kelly, fussing, tuning sort of q
fellow delightlng most in notoriety
and always forcing people to talk
about him, divalged all the facts Of an
official interview that occurred between
himself and Bismarck on this subject,
and Bismarck Is furious about tue
breach Of confidence and official de-
corum. He will not recognize agents
Of the United States and the nice young
man sent over not many weeks ago
by Mr.. Evarts, to confer with Bus
marck on this all-lmportant subject Of
uniform international currency, was alb
solufely refused an audience. Evarts
must feel very badly about it. But it
may be that DR.. Mary Bloomer Cos
tune Walker secured the commission
intended for Judge Walker by Mr..
Rvarts, and il is only Bismarck's
known aversion to woman's rights that
begess this Aaatar when dealing with
our government.

FReUnE, The historian, in . recent
publication, insists that the Roman
Catholic hierarchy will soon be omni-
potent in this country and put period
10 republican institutions. We are
told that Protestants are, as five or six
to one, stronger in the United States
than ROmsnists. II the church grow
rapidly, SO does the population of the
whole country. II there be six mil
lions ROmanista, there are forty mil
lions Protestants. But then Romanists
are as devout republicans as Protest
ants. Romanists signed the Declsrs-
ton of Independence, and Romanists
have fought in sll our wars and held
all Offices Of honor and profit except
the two highest. They have sat upon the
Supreme Court bench and served SIS
chief magistrates Of States and ever been
thoroughly republican in sll things.
A Catholic is not necessarily mon.
archist, and does not cencede the night
of Rome to govern out tide OF spiritual
matters. Italy is wholly Catholic, aud
Italy has Invested itself of the papacy
tt the extent that priestcraft inter
vened in temporal masters, and the
Pope has been stripped, much
against his will, of ten poral sway in
the pontlfical States. We are inclined
to belieYs that France Is as thoroughly
republican in politics as Catholic
in the religious faith ana pref
udices OF the people, aud that
Mr.. Froude is only sensational and
mischievous when he seeks to alarm
the people of the United States, be-
cause Romanism grows in strength and
power. The Catholic Church is not
openly aggressive. L. has no wan
dering. evangelists like Mel IT Penn or
Moody. Is work is quietly done and
IL effective, because it begins at the
cradle, AMI does not end even at the
grave. IT'S mode OF organization is
monarchical, but other churches have
as vigorous systems of government,
and while we would resent encroach-
ments by any OF these, and think it
fortunate that one hierarchy fears an
other we do not, in our time, antici-
pate danger at the hands of any de-
nomination of Christians. These Sun
day laws and coalitions between Pro-
testants and the Safe in the matter of
education, are the only alarming in
dlcations of trespass upon popular free
dom by churches now visible in this
country

The revision of the Bible, now near
ly completed, has been far more ex-
pensive work than most persons i'm
agine. There are fifty-twe members
OF the committee, and these meet for
five days in every three weeks. No
salary is paid to any of them, but they
are allowed their travelling and inn
expenses. These, with other items,
will bring the cost of the first edition
of the revised Bible, as estimated by
the University Press Company, which
is responsible for it, to about $500, 600,
and consequently it has been deter
mined to sell the first few copies at q
high price. The new Bible viii re-
ceive no authorization either from
Parliament or coavocation. Ii has
been discovered, incidentally, during
the sittings Of the committee, that the
50 called authorized version never was,
in fact authorized, either ecclesias-
tically or politically. 1t made its way
by its own merits and the Revised BIZ
bic is expected to do the same.

We read in Gil Bliss. But there is sn-
other doctor who has recently asserted
his potency. He is none other than the
Russian Minister at Washington, N.
Slishkin. 1t sounds like sheepskin,
but he meyer bought one. He writes
to the New York Herald that he has
simple remedy for the cLildrens' plague.
1t has been used everywhere in Russia
and Germany and with unYarying sue
cess. For children of one yesr he pre-.
saribes the remedy, for internal use
every one or two hours, as follows:
For diptheria
Nstr. beDzoic, pur. 0 solv. in SO
distillat sqmenth. piper. ana 400 syr.
cOrt. bur. 10 0.
FJr children from one to three years
old he prescribed it from seven to
eight grammes for gramme of distilled
water, with same syrup; for children
from three to seven years old he pre-
scrIbed ten to fifteen grammes, and for
grown persons from fifteen to twenty
five grammes for each 100 grammes.
3 sides this, he uses also, with great
success, the Insulation on the diph-
therial membrane through glass tube,
in serious cases every three hours, in
light cases three times a day of the
natural berzDic pulver. For grown
people he prescribes for gargling a d.
luton of ten grammes of this pulver
for 200 grammes of water.
The effect of the remedy Is rapid.
After twentv-four or thIrty-six hours,
the feverish symptoms disappear COM
pletely, snd the temperature and pulse
become normal. This remedy was
used also with the same success by DR..
Braham Braun and Professor Klebs, in
Prag; DR.. Senator, in C4ssei, and sew
eral Others in Russia and Germany.

THERE is royal agricultural societ,

THERE is royal agricultural society
in England by which every discovery
and improvement in methods of agri-
culture is made known. Lords and
peasants are members, and its meet
ings are attended and publications
read by multitudes of people. In fact,
the Royal Agricultural Society of Eng
land is very much such an institution
as the Agricultural and Mechanical
College at Bryan was designed to be.
1t makes known to the multitude the
discoveries of the few and of the
many, and such are its benefcent eff
fects that the people ascribe to it an
an sugmention of crops Of one-third due
to information derived from this
royal society. It pays literally for all
improvements in modes of culture dis
covered or for improved agricultural
machinery. Because of intelligent
modes of cultivation q little kingdom,
no broader than New York and Penn
sylvsnis, holds and often supplies a
population equal to that of the United
States. But to see how this Is done
our farmers must attend q session of
the Royal Agricultural Society, which
holds its annual exhibitions, such as
we should have here in Austin, that all
discoveries and improvements may be
adopted by everv farmer Of the empire.
1t is now proposed to organize in the
United States such society ss that
which has done 30 much for agriculture
in..England. It's central seat of opera
tons will be in New York City, and q
meeting of sgriculturists representing
evsy American State, is called to 81,
there Wednesday, December 10. Who
will represent Texas.
