Rev. DIR. Haygood's Sermons and
SDeeCheS,


We have received from the publishers,
through the agent of the Southern Metho-
dist Publishing House, Nashville, Tenn,
a copy of the very handsome work,
just published, entitled Sermons and
Speeches by Atticus. Haygood, d. D.,
President of Emory College, oxford, Ga"
agent of the Slater fund, and well known
throughout the entire country as one of the
most eloquent divines-of the NJ. E. Church,
South. The mechanical execution of the
work is very fine in its stereotyping,
printing and binding, and reflects credit
on the publishing house from which it
emanates.
The book comprises sermons and
speeches, and as specimen of DIR. Hay
goods power and eloquence both in the
pulpit and upon the rostrum, are fair
samples of great mind and large heart.
We have but hastily glanced over few
of the sermons and speeches, and note in
them the marks Of a leader, and brave
one. of elevating and ennobling thought and
action. In no instance does he attempt
empyricisms. His logic is mighty in its
power and his reason brushes away many
cobwebs that ingenuity has thrown
around the path of devotion
to the God of all, and duty to humanity
at large. DIR. HaygOod is yet in the prime
of his mental strength and power Ofuseful-
ness. AS the head of Emory" one ofthe
best known colleges in the country, he is
recognized as one of the most successful
administrative educators of the times, and
his fame is in all the churches. The price
Of the work, only 81 %, should bring it
into the library of every Southern house
hold,

editor remarks:
The Savannah MORNING News, of
February Ii, comes to us with a quaint
and interesting fac smile OF an old print

Three small ships and a number of
boats lie in the water at the foot Of the
bluff, and a gang Of laborers are hauling
goods up the incline. Such was the be-
ginning of what is now the beautiful and
fiOurishing city Of Savannah, whose Ses-
qui-Centennial has just been celebrated
with great splendor and general rejOic-

Of the celebration, as witnessed on each

The Farmers Defend Their Position

In closing his address and report ON ex-
periments at the University farm before
the Georgia State Agricultural Society at
Macon last Monday, Gen. VIM. NJ. Browne,
Professor of Agriculture in the State Uni
yersity. produced an article, published
last fall, severely criticising his reports
and the action of the society seeking
through the Legislature the establishment
of several agricultural experiment sta
tiOns in the State. General Browne de-
nOunced the article as rejecting upon the
society and its intelligence, and was
warmly applauded. This brought Mr.. W.
II. Reese, of Marshallyille, to his feet, who
ayOwed the authorship of the obnoxious
article, and proceeded to defend
the positions taken therein, call
ing for anyone present to rise
who had received benefit from
the Athens experimental farm. Sew
eral members rose TO their feet and ac-
knOwledged their obligations to General
Browne for advantages accruing from his
reports. But Mr.. Livingston, of Newton.
who has ever stood forth champion of
the society and among the most earnest
and able advocates of progressive agri-
culture, effectively replying to Mr.. Reese,
demanded a positive decision Of the ques-
ton, that the Legislature might not be
left in doubt as to the real position of the
society in the premises.
To this end Mr.. H. H. Jones, of Bib,
offered a resolution denouncing the at
tack Of Mr.. Reese and approving the
establishment of the experimental
farm and General Brownies reports. A
very spirited debate followed and mo-
tion was made to table the resolution, but
it was enthusiastically adopted with only
twO dissenting voices. This action
shows that the society is in earnest about
the experiment stations asked for at the
hands of the Legislature, and that it did
not enter upon the subject without due
deliberatiOn. Later in its proceedings at
Macon the society repeated its Marietta
recOmmendatory resolutions ON this sub

A Grab Game.

There is neither mercy, nor justice nor
humanity in the protective tariff system.
1t is grab game to get money out of the
pockets of the people. Tariff laws are
merely tax laws. A protective tariff is
merely tax law for the benefit Of private
interests. In the struggle for wealth the
protected interests have all the powers of
the government enlisted in their behalf.

The South for Cheap Iron.

If iron can be made as cheap in the
South as shown by the figures of some OF
our Southern contemporaries, Congress
may sweep away all the protection laws
on that article, and the South would still
be able to defy all foreign competition.
The Courier-J0HrndL recently asserted
that it was possible to make iron in the
South at from 50 to SIP per ton, and is COW
delighted to find the Nashville American
Ga protectiOnist) inadvertently proving
the correctness Of the statement. Mar.
rating the advantages of railroad
branching of from the MeMinnville and
Sparta Road at Rowlands, the American
says coke can be made on that narrow
gauge at % cents and carried to Nashville
at cents. AS coke is about as
important in the manufacture of pig
iron as the ore itself, and can be delivered
in that city at less than five cents, the
american sees that blast furnaces can be
made profitable in Nashville. 1t also
quotes Mr.. A. L. Crawford, President of
the New Castle and River Valley Rail-
road, Pennsylvania, an old iron manufac-
turer, for the statement that ''if coke can
be had in Nashville at six and half cents,
it will pay to make iron ore there" giving
the following figures for ton of pig iron
on that basis:
Two and a quarter tons Western iron
belt ore Observation-Disclosures. so
seventy-five bushels coke at 6lkc ..-.-.. 81
Limestone ....--..-...... ..---..-... Oh
Labor and repair ................ ..... W
Interest ..-....... W
Total ................. .sl2 81
Now these figures, says the Courier
Journal, must be very startling. If iron
can be made in Nashville at $l2 81 a ton,
and 81 is allowed for interest, the actual
cost is only Sl1 81 with coke at 615 cents.
! BUT coke does not cost 81 cents in Ala
bama, as DIR. Miller has very cOnclusively
shown. The american itself says coke can
be had within 1l3 miles of Nashville at 8
cents, and DIR. Miller shows, that existing
side by side with the iron in Alabama, it
! does not have to be transported at all.
On the basis of 3 cents, however, the fol-
lowing figures are produced:

What is here shown of Tennessee and
Alabama may be shown of other lOcali-
ties in the South and West. Some of the
most valuable mines in America are said
to be lying idle, or worked to very small
extent, only because few Eastern mines
have a monopoly through protection. The
repeal Of the tariffs would develop these
cheaper mines and vastly enlarge the iron

A Pertinent Inquiry.

-HVFt5VV77.0F FF0-7
But supposewe do violence to our con-
science and admit that pig iron cannot be
made for less than $12 per ton in Alabama.
Its cost in Pennsylvania is $40 per ton,
and iron at that cost uDderseils English
iron at the seaboard. Then what does
Alabama's $12 iron want with 81 protec-
ton. Say it costs So 80 to get Alabama
iron to market and 30 cents to sell it. All
over SIG is profit. A furnace which turns
out 100 tons per day will turn out 10000
tons per annum, allowing for every con-
tingency. If il is sold at a profit of 81
per ton. that is 100000, or ten per cent.
on 81, 200. 900, a reasonable profit on more
than double the capital it takes to make
100 tons of pig iron per day.
