The Gazette" in highly tempered
article Of Saturday says that, the RE-
PUBLICAN shows its hate for the South
ern people in every line it prints"
We will only remark that that paper
pretends to be truthful, but the above
quotation is a sample of its truthful
ness. Then it very cunningly insinu-
ates that the reason the people of the
South do not patronize Wilmington, is
because of the publication of such pa.
pers as the REPUBLICAN. This is very
easily understood. The "Gazette might
as well have advised the merchants
and manufacturers of Wilminnton to
stop patronizing the REPUBLICAN,, but
we presume the people will do as they
please nevertheless. We know one
thing and that is, the course We have
pursued has given us circulation of
over 5000, while the cringing and truck
ling of the "Gazette" to the South has
given it circulation of not more than
one third as much as the REPUBLICAN.
We know what we are saying, so let

Rome Dust.

Asa general rule when American
farmers use bone dust they apply too
small quantity to show decisive re-
suits. Thus, in improving pasture, a
hundred pounds or so might not show
much good result, because the growth
being removed daily the increase is not
readily recognized. Only think, if a
nasture season be considered one hun
dred and fifty days, then ton increase
of feed per acre is but about thirteen
pounds day over an acre. In En-
gland, where bone manuring is in
favor, large quantities are used with
advantage. Prof. Tanner recommends
bone dust, applied at the rate OF one
ton per acre in the autumn, for the
Improvement of grass lands.-"Scientifi'

nsssh sr Q. v. PswslI.

The death Of kr. Powell is . sad one,
the cause of which shsuld sir up eter-
nal snmity against all worthless ours
and pet dogs in the city. Were all the
dogs in the city, good, bad and indii-
fsrsnt, put into a huge sack, and thrown
into the Delaware Bay, the loss OF the
whole Of them would not weigh a feather
in the scale, when compared with the
loss Of citizen like George W. Powell,
and not only Mr.. Powell, but any other
citizen Of high or low degree. AS the
strict enforcement of the dog ordinance
of the city forms one Of the brightest
chapters Of Mayor Almonds sdminis-
tration, we hope lie will still pe more
vigorous in its enforcement and not
relax his efforts until there are none
left except those that are kept for some
useful purpose, and kept by persons
who are able to keep them from starv-
ing without turning them loose upon
the streets to shift for themselves.
Within about a year there have been
three fatal cases of byarophobia in our
city, all resulting from the bites Of dogs
that have been iondled and caressed by
their owners. Each succeeding case in
spired the city authorities to make
spasmo odic effort to externinate the
worthless unregistered dogs OF the
city, but after short time
those efforts relaxed and things
logged along again the same a
| If mad-dog had never been heard Of
We suppose that the said death of Mr.
Powell will incite the authorities tc
make another effort, to either make
people register their dogs, or to exter
inmate them. Mr.. Powell is dead and
cannot be called to life l.. this world
but his sad death should be warning
to others who are in the habit OF fond
ling dogs, and perhaps thereby nursing
the instrument Of their own death
IMr. Powell was very worthy Christian
gentleman, much esteemed by all wA'
knew him. All day long his chee'
voice was heard at his daily avocation,
and those who potronized him recos'
nized in him an honest man, and IN
his short illness for which there seems
to be no cure, he had the sympathies O
a sympathizing public, and the pray
ers of a christian people. His aget
mother, his wife and children, for whom
it was the sole object of his life to Keel
in comfort, have generous public sym
pathy in their sudden and sad bereave
ment.

Redeemed GesrEis.
Before Geoegia was bulldozsd into q
Democratic State through the shot gun
policy. Governor Bullock, the then Re-
publican Governor Of the State was &C.
cused OF the most hagrant malfeasance
| in Office, and every unprincipled Dem
ocratic journal in the country like q
vicious cur was yalping at his heels,
calling him thief and every thing else
bad in the Democratic vocabulary OF
language. So great was the howl rais-
cd against him that he was almost led
TO believe himself that he was guilty Of
some crime, and for safety fed to the
North, until after the State had passed
into rebel control, when he returned
and the trumped ur charges against
him we're dismissed, simply because
there were no grounds tor them. Well,
the State became thoroughly Democrat
| 10, and the quiet Of the grave ensued in
politics because had 1t been otherwise
the grave itself would have been invok'
ed on the side Of peace. Things went on
smoothly since 1874, the Democrats do
ing all the voting, holding all the Of
fees and making all the laws, though il
was we'll known that there was a large
| majority of the people of the State
who would have voted the Republican
ticket If they had dared to do SO.
However violent the means made use
of by the Democrats to obtain posse'
sion ofthe State, there was at least as al
offset the promise Of an honest admins
tration by native Georgians, and re-
deemed Georgia was hailed with delight
by all except those who knew what ii
meant. Well, the State Treasurer O.
Georgia, Mr.. Renfroe, has recently
bagged 5000 of the public money
Mr.. Renfroe is not an ignorant negro,
carpet bagger nor Republican, but hi
is native Georgian, proud Caucasian
member of "the race that was born tc
govern" and Democrat. II he hat
been a carpet-bagger his theft voule
have been regarded as an excuse for de
stroying the Republican vote Of th'
State by numbering niggers, so that tn
men OF the race that was born to goverl
could obtain possession Of the govern
ment but being a white man and
Democrat, the Democratic Legislator
took his case tenderly..in hand, and al
ter examining it and finding that Rem
froe really had stolen the money, it re
fused to convict him. Thus it appear
that thief. which, if it were perpetra
ted by Republican, would justify rev
> elutionary measures upon the part G
; the Democrats, is regarded as matte
of trifing Importance when the thief
Democrat. Possibly the reason {
this is that nobody expects a Dem'
crat to refrain from robbing.
