1t would be difficult to name three ante
bellum statesmen more unlike in personal
appearance, modes Of thought and action
and general manners, both in public life
and the social circle, than the Hon. Robt.
&. Winthrop, of Massachusetts, and Gen.
Robert Toombs, of Georgia, and the late
Governor Alexander H. Stephens,
And yet these distinguished gentlemen
were warm personal friends in Congress in
the ''long-ago" days of the good old Whip

widely separated them at times, vet IL
seems that the old time regard has sur.

New Zealand.

Mr.. Robert j. Creighton, the agent in
this country of the New Zealand Govern
ment, concerning the affairs of that thriv
ing island, which seems TO us small, but
is in reality great, says: New Zealand
in extent is about as large as Iowa and
Missouri, and has white population of
about half a million. Last year it pro-
duced about II million bushels of wheat.
the yield averaging % bushels per acre.
1t also exported agricultural products,
worth over five million dollars, and wool
and other products of the value of sixteen
million dollars. The total exports for
1882 amounted to more than $50, ,000, 900,
and the imports to about $4,000, 600,
making total foreign trade last year of
about seventy-three millions. Much of
the exports consisted of frozen mutton
which was carried to England in ships pro-
vided with refrigerator apartments.
New Zealand has 1888 miles of rail-
roads, costing nearly fifty million dol
lars, and 1SS miles more are in process of
construction. The net income for 1880
from these railroads was equal to nearly /
per cent on their. cost. The credit of the
colony is high and a large loan was re-
Gently negotiated in London without trou-
bic. 1t has an excellent system Of public
schools, its towns and cities are we'll light
ed and paved, its harbors are provided
with docks and wharves, it has public
parks and museums and a large number
of prosperous banks, and generally is as.
suming the appearance and characters
tics of an old and pOpulOus country.
For more than ten years this and the
other neighboring colonies have MAIN
tanned steam communication with San
Francisco, sending their English mail by
that route, and much of their exports and
imports have also crossed this country.
The heavy burden of this steamship line
has been borne by the colonial govern
ment without any substantial recognition
of its value to this country by our govern
ment. Mr.. Creighton is here for the pur=
pose of securing this recognition from the
authorities,
The approaching completion of new
transcontinental lines, and the opening of
the port of Guaymas, which is a thousand
miles nearer the Australasian colonies
than San Francisco, and which il now con.
nected with all parts of the United States
by 1irst-class railroad, make it necessary
for us to look after the trade Of the East
Indies and the Pacific colonies more
closely. 1t is estimated that tho Ausrra-
liam and New Zealand trade alone is
worth $450,00O,000 per year to Great
Britain, and it stands to reason that, by
proper effort, our manufacturers and
merchants can secure large share of it,
1t is certainly prize we'll worth strug-
Cling after; and it behooyes our business
and railroad companies to make an effort
TO win it.

With "A Little WrangIing.


With a Little WrangIing
WASHINGTON, May IO.-At the opening
of the star route trial to-day Judge Wyl-
lie referred to a remark of his Yesterday,
in response to Mr.. Wilson, who was then
speaking for the defense, which remark
implied censureHpOn Charles p. Black
mar, post office clerk, who was one of
the witnesses. Judge Wyllie said that
any censure was undeserVed. and his re-
marks should properly apply only to Mr..
Rerdell, with whom Blackmar's name
was coupled in regard to a proposal
from Rerdell to use his
right TO challenge jurors in favor of the
government. The counsel for the defense
declared that the court was now i'm error.
and that the evidence showed a positive
bargain between Mr.. Blackmar and Mr..
kerdell to carry into effect Mr.. Rerdell's
proposition.
Judge Wyllie replied that the evidence
showed that the proposition was Mr.. Rer-
delFs alone, and had met with no response
from Mr.. Blackmar. The argument was
interrupted by mutual consent, and Mr..
Blacknar was permitted to testify on the
point at issue. He said that Mr.. RerdelPs
propositions had been communicated to
the government, but that they had refused
TO have anything to do with it.
and he (Blackmar) made no reply to NJ.
Rerdell, and consequently no arrange
ment, such as was charged by the counsel
for the. defense was ever made. Mr.. Black
mar was crOss-eXamined by Col. Inger-

Boone and Dorsey recalled, but the court
refused to hear anything further on the
subject, and Mr.. Wilson proceeded with

WAYCROss, GA, May 9-Tbe ladies of

fair and festival last week, at which
was spread a sumptuous feast, which not
only gratitied the inner man but Welded
a rich harvest in dollars and cents. The
object of the festival was the raising of
funds to complete the Baptist Church. 1t
Will now be completed and dedicated
soon. The Rev. W. E. Perryclear as

houses of worship.
Rt. Rev. Bishop Gross and Rev. C. c.
Prendergast spent day or two with us
last week arranging for the building
OF the Catholic Church here, the
plan of which surpasses in archi-
tectural design anything of its kind now
here. We learn the railroad company has
donated a one acre lot upon which it Will be
built. The amount necessary for its COM
pletion has nearly all been subscribed.
ana we trust the balance will be forth
coming.
The MethOdists have Just closed re-

had a large attendance. A goOdly num-

church.
The Savannah, Florida and Western
Railway freight house has been COM
pleted and is now occupied by
that department. This fills long-needed
improvement and is in keeping with

decided quiet pervading our little place.
and business seems to follow suit and
take on sombre air. Everything is dull
and summerlike unusually soon this wear.
but Notwithstanding this unusual cessa
ton in business the carpenters are kept
employed, and the erection of residences
still continue. Those built for rent are
filled as soon as completed, there being
more applicants than houses for
rent. Several residences of a neat
and attractive design are to go up soon.

From the present indications. we are

This is gratifying, seeing we have not
