Illinois papers say Unit Ameliu,
the favorite “ wife" of Brigham
Young, intends to return to her old
home in Peoria to live.
The expedition fitted out in New
York, under Captain Folingsby, for
the recovery of the sunken treasure
of the San Pedro Alcantara, Is aliout
to sail for Venezuela to prosecute
the search. There Is supi>osed to be
aliout six million dollars sunk In the
Spanish Main, and in consideration
of a royalty of five per cent, the Ven
ezuelan Government hus given Capt.
Folingsby a patent to dredge for it.
An Iron mountain 10,600 feet high,
and rivalling the famous iron moun
tain of Missouri, has been discovered
in Colfax county, New Mexico. The
ore Is almost entirely pure iron, and
in connection with the immense
quantities of coal found In Colfax
county this huge deposit of Iron ore
must nt no distant day become the
source of industries which wlllguthcr
and support a large and thriving po[>-
ulation.
The Charleston Journal of Com
merce is furious over the report that
Corbin is to he appointed United
States District Attorney in South
Carolina. It declares that the time
for sentimentalism is past, and says:
"Let General Butler and his friends,
If need be, form u combination witii
Conkling and Edmunds, and defeat
every one of Hayes’ nominations—
they can do It—and the people of
South Carolina will rise up and bless
their names."
The New York Graphic, in one of
its late cartoons, aptly and fully por
trays the whole silver question. It
represents the United States riding
safely und comfortable on a byclole,
the lurger wheel being shown by a
silver dollar, and the smaller by a
gold dollar, while England and Ger
many are making desperate efforts to
manage a vehicle with a single gold
en wheel. The artist presents the
whole question at a glance.
THE HEM OS' THE ANTILLES*.
Spain has wasted millions of money
and thousands of lives in retaining
possession of the bountiful Island of
Cuba, and we are really inclined to
hope she may secure her conquest.
Should the so-called Republicans
gain their desire of victory, there
would be another negro Republic de
siring admission to the United
States and (lie old carpet-ling officials
to fight over again. It is better that
Spain, the most bigoted and the least
generous and enterprising and the
one furthest behind the age in men
tal and moral improvement should
rule, than our country should be
plunged again into turmoil and con
fusion by the claims of ignorance,
superstition and ignominious poverty
foranequul share in our Government.
We have hail enough of the
class that represents thedominaut ideu
of the majority of those who nre
fighting Spain—a country that shows
less advancement than any on the
faeeofthe earth—a realm that has
hardly emerged from the darkness of
the middle ages. We have, however,
had enough of such Republics as
Cuba would lie were it freed of 8[inn-
iah domination, for the Standards
and their descendants represent all
of Intelligence and worth on the Is
lam).
Cuba is certainly worth fighting
for. This island, H20 miles long, 130
wide, and containing 46,000 square
miles of territory, produced last year
1,600,000 boxes and 600,000 casks of
sugar, 25,000,000 pounds of tobacco,
and 200,000,000 cigars—the whole val
ued at $150,000,000.
The half-breeds und negroes, led by
some intelligent whites, have, how
ever, made a good predatory fight.
They ensconce themselves In the
mountains, und when occasion ott'ers
pounce upon a nourishing plantation
and destroy, after robbing to heart’s
desire. The revolution has been In
active o]K>ratton nine years, and cost
Hpaln two hundred million dollars in
money and 150,000 lives, and is as lit
tle subdued as when it started. The
natives have a powerful ally in yel
low fever, which plays havoc with
foreign soldiery. But for this Spain
would long since have been a con
queror.
Not two weeks since the insurgents
captured a Spanish convoy of a mil
lion dollars. Captain General Jovel-
larjdenies it, but we are accustomed to
such as that. The Spanish officials
desire that the contest should con
tinue. It is said that Jovellar's pre
decessor, Vaknuscda, jun keted $5,000,-
000 us ills share of the plunder, and
there Is little doubt that $50,000,000
has been divided among the big and
little thieves since 18&S. The taxes,
which before the insurrection were
24 per cent, on (lie yearly product
are now in the neighborhood of 50
per cent. A few years hence, unless
peace comes meanwhile, they will be
equivalent to confiscation.
Let come what will, we have no
deaire for such a republic as Cuba is
bound to be, if Spain should give up
^^h« contest.
A CHRISTMAS SI ULRATION.
It comes next Tuesday. It is ordi
narily esteemed the happiest period
of all the year. Is it? Fosslblyitmay
be to the fresh hearts who have never
known ueare. How is it to those who
have rarely recognized anything but
hard work, care and privation, to
whom the slightest gift is something
that comes from heaven, or some dis
tant country, whose realms have
never been explored ? No cheer for
them; noimugesave the monotonous
routine of toil. We judge things by
contrast. In our churches ofttimes
multitudinous presents are given to
children. For the nonce the infantile
mind is made happy, and it bounds
responsive to the generous impulse
that muyhaps may actuate the giver.
We have often thought that Instead
of making a show in the churches,
the members should search out
the poor and give them the gifts
thut on the festivals nre distributed
to all classes ulike. That generosity
would be much more appreciated.
There Is nothing like making home
happy, and there is many a home in
Columbus thut must be devoid of all
the glud realizations of the Christmas.
Would it not be n method of diffusing
greuter enjoyment for the good Su-
muritans of our churches to seek out
those to whom holiday festivities arc
anything but a solace, to search in
tently und such instead of appropria
ting funds to Christmns trees and gen
era lgratulatlons, devotetlierii to mak
ing the dwellings of poverty glisten
with joy, nnd force the hearts of the
penniless to bless the recurrence of
the birthday of the Christ child. It
would be so easy to cause a household
to sparkle with merriment where
seldom contentment reigns, did we
hut think of it and remember in time.
Did but we know the heart aches,
tlie struggles nnd tumults of life, how
easy It would be toalleviute misery and
scatter benefactions. We recall once
upon a time at the distribution of gifts
at a church festival we asked a friend
to look at a poor boy whose eyes
gleamed at the bounteous presents be
stowed on others. The hungry eyed
child gazed with eager anxiety. He
may not have known what a (Sunday
(School was, oaths may have cursed
his lips from infancy, his lot may
have been a hard one, used to knocks
and blows, given and sent. That fix
ed gaze looked euger passionate desire
but hollow expectancy. Our gener
ous friend nt once handed the ragged
vagrant one of the packages lie bore,
and wholly unsymputhetic us we are,
we can never forget tlie sjiarkle of de
light which Hashed over his pinched
feutures. Though raised in the dirt,
Ills expression thanked beyond
the imwer of words. We could
not avoid thinking if all the presents
of the night hud been devoted to such
as he and his, there would lie a mul
titude of hearts thut evening that
would have danced with the liveliest
emotion—many a mother who wearied
and exhausted with the struggle's of
[•overly would have taken a new lease
on existence nnd hundreds would
have had the nssurance that there
was in thiM world something of honor
and virtue and sympathy worth
living for, nnd thut a generous Chris
tianity was more than a name. It is
so easy to diffuse happiness where
there is n desire, and the giver re
ceives a bounteous benefaction.
Think of this in planning for the
coming gludness. The slightest re
membrance might bring hope to the
dis|iairing and encouragement to
those well nigh crushed to earth.
Life could be mnde so sweet to many
did we but think of the needy while
preparing for the gladdening displays
in our temples.
TALKING WITH TOOMBS.
Strength op th k British A km y.
—The military resources of Engluud
on paper are: In the United King
dom, 105,IKS) regular troops, 134,500
militia, 14,830 yeomanry, 174,241 eflfi-
cienlVolunteers, 15,IKK) first-class and
21,000 second-class army reserve
making a total of 454,IKK) men. Of
these, tlie active army, about 30,000
men of the militia reserve and the
first-class reserve are alone liable to
serve out of tlie country. The British
army in India is not to be taken Into
consideration in the estimates of
forces available for a war on tin* Bal
kan peninsula or about the Black
Sea, for it hus to remain in India for
obvious reasons. It is stated from
English sources that the paper esti
mate of 454,IKK) would Is* reduced to
about 10O,IKK) men in case of actual
war with a foreign power. England’s
navy, however, is her strength. It
numbers 68 tron-clads, 800 steamers
and 170 sailing vessels, all available
for war service. The irou-elads are
all powerful vessels, some of them
registered as high as 12,IKK) tons. A
(sirtion of this fleet is now at Besikn
Bay, nt the foot of the Dardanelles,
and within easy reach of Constanti
nople. Last summer there was some
talk of an English army being landed
at Gallipoli, on the straits, 140 miles
below Constantinople, and making
that point the source of distribution,
as it was during the Crimean war.
The Action ok Gen. Gordon.—
A special to the Chicago Times lias
this, of which we don’t believe a
word :
He (Senator Gordon) was placed in
a terribly trying posltidn. Senators
Morgan, Ben Hill, M. G. Butler and
Lamar told him that lie could do only
one thing if he hoped to hold up hfs
head In the South again,and that was to
challenge Conkling. Mrs. Gordon, a
handsome, black-eyed brunette, in
sisted, too, thut her husband must
challenge Conkling. Gordon is an
extremely sensitive man. His promi
nent |k*u lion and tin* necessary storm
of obloquy that would be rained upon
him and his people for the revival of
the duello here all weighed upon
Em
it is highly important that affections
of the Throat, l.ungs or Bronchial
Tubes should he cheeked at once, and
for this purpose nothing equals Dr.
Bull’s Cough Syrup.

AUantn Constitution.[
THE PARIS BUSINESS.
"General, are you going to Parts?”
"Yes, sir. You boys have written
a good deal in your paper about my
going there as a commissioner. 1 u[>-
nreemte the kind motive hut I must
tieg to be excused!"
“Why is that?”
“Well, I can’t afTord to take n com
mission from anybody! I want no
office. As you have said I know
enough people In Loudon and Paris
to fetd at home. Let somebody who
needs the influence of a position to
introduce them have these commis
sions. I am going to Paris, howev
er.”
n glad
“Yes, sir, I am going. It will he
the third Paris exposition I.will have
attended. I attended the exposition
of 1855 ns a Senator; I attendee theex-
positlon of 1867 as a refugee and I am
going to this one as a gentleman!”
THE GOVERNORSHIP.
"General, how about the omission
In the new Constitution to designate
a successor to Gov. Colquitt In case of
his death before the organization of
the Legislature?”
“Well, Hint is very Idle discussion.
Hupjxise Gov. Colquitt should die to
morrow, what is the result? A lot of
fellows in the State won’t get their
warrants on the treasury signed.
That is about the extent of the damage
done. Why, the whole army of the
United States has gone seven months
without its pay—whycan’t forty men
in Georgia do the same ? They can
find some one,just as the soldiers did,
to cash their claims upon the govern
ment. I will pay the jutlges and the
clerks up there at the capitol their
little salaries if such a contingency
takes place. It is really a very small
matter."
"But who would he the legal suc
cessor?"
"Why not RufusE.Lester? Didn’t
Conley take the office after his term
as Senator and President of the Sen
ate laid expired ? Does not the Con
stitution—the new Constitution—fix
the date for the meeting and organi
zation of the new Legislature, with
out any interference from the Gov
ernor? Is the State ever without a
Legislature V und should the Govern
or die, why wouldn’t Lester be Ills
successor until another is elected,
either Governor or President of the
Senate?"
"That is the point of the discus
sion.”
"And I think it a very nonsensical
discussion at best."
THE NEW HOMESTEAD.
"Well, General, how about the
homestead? There is some question
made about that?”
"That is worse folly than the other.
It may he knavery. There is a sensi
ble view of the liomestead matter
which should readily commend itself
to every man. The homestead of
1877 lias been adopted and is now a
constitutional right belonging to the
citizens. It is not an imperfect right,
to be supplemented witii legislation
in order to become available. Any
legislation upon the subject is for
mere convenience. Let the man who
wants tlie liomestead file his claim to
it—it is $1,6(K) in amount nnd abso
lutely not subject to levy and sale.
Who dares trespass upon this consti
tutional right? Who is fool enough to
buy and risk his money in the face of
such a claim? It is sheer nonsense
to talk ubout a man being debarred
from this great right by reason of
lacking legislation, prescribing the
mere details of Its enforcement. ”
“Then you deem the right absolute
now?”
"J do, and I will undertake to en
force it in any court in Georgia. I
defy all tlie [lowers of earth to inter
fere with it in any other way than
thut pointed out in the Constitution
Itself.
TIIE NEW CONSTITUTION.
“Of course, you are rejoiced at the
success of the new Constitution?”
“It is the grandest triumph of the
age. It Is a splendid Constitution
and will survive long after you and I
are dead. It contains greut princi
ples. it adopted itself. Who worked
for it? Who tried to have it adopted?
All that was done with reference to
it, was done ngainst it, but it tri
umphed just us the honest and true
principles of human government will
always triumph. It isa Constitution
for ‘|ieople’ — it contains no word
about race, color or previous condi
tion, except as to schools. It is what
the people wanted and they accepted
THE CAPITAL.
"I suppose you are glad of the set
tlement of the eapital ?”
"Oh, yes; that settlement was right.
Atlanta deserved the cnpital and will
always reflect credit and honor upon
the common wealth. I pronounced
for her among the very first of her
friends hut f did not like her action
upon the new Constitution. Atlunta
was for Atlanta in that fight, and
would have sacrificed the new Consti
tution to have won. I suw it all. Rut
I was for Atlanta on principle, and
while her action did not change my
preference, it did not urge me very
strongly to champion her cause above
that of thefConsutution. 1 am glad
she won. The public have shown
favor for Atlanta, and now Atlnntn
should allow herself for the public in
terest. She is a great city, with a
(jivat future, and should not mar her
fame by adopting any of the tactics of
her late opponents.”
Hereabouts the Interview closed.

Views lo the Labor Reformers.
WoJthinftfon J'nif.)
Senator David Davis, of Illinois,
has sent the following letter to E. D.
Dewees, Pottsville, Pa., in relation to
a proposed Labor Reform Convention:
Dear Sir :—I hnve had the honor
to receive yourletter. Any movement
for a national convention, such as
you suggest, should emanute directly
from tlie people, and be entirely’ free
from the influence of counsel or mem
bers of Congress. Entertaining this
view, it would lie Indelicate in me to
take any part in the proposed conven
tion . Measures are now pendi ng before
Congress intended to correct some of
the evils under which the country
is suffering. The extraordinary spec
tacle is presented to the world of three
elements of national currency—gold,
,Tn
tacle is presented to the world of three
elements of national currency—gold,
greenbacks and silver—each having a
different value, and the two last de
preciated by legislation procured in
favor of the first. The injustice of
this discrimination need not be dis
cussed, for it is felt in unexampled
distress all over the land. Honor re
quires us to keep faith with the pub
lic creditors to the last letter of the
law, but it also demands that faith
shall be kept with the people, upon
whom falls the burden of taxation
and the duty of fidelity to national
obligations.'
Every measure calculated to bring
about u sound and uniform currency,
anil to wipeout the distinctions which
favor one portion of the community
nt tlie cost of tlie rest, shall receive
my cheerful and earnest support.
IWlBf m Charfh Prom Debt.
Special Dispatch to the Times.J
Yew York, Dec. 16.—Mr. Edward
Kimball, who has been the means of
freeing twenty-six churches from debt
began work in the Rev. Dr. Tyng’s
church, at Madison avenue and
Forty-second street, this morning.
The church is loaded with a debt of
two hundred and thirty-six thousand
dollars. This was the largest debt
that Mr. Kimball had ever tried to
cancel. He pursued his usual plan of
calling for subscriptions and in a few
moments they began to flow in. The
service was not interrupted until five
o’clock in tlie afternoon and nt that
time one hundred nnd ten thousand
dollars had been raised. In the eve
ning the work was resumed and
enough more money was raised to
swell the amount to one hundred and
forty-five thousand, the largest sum
ever raised for church purposes In a
day. The church officers say that
with this start they can raise enough
more to pay the debt.

New York, Deoember 18.—In the
Surrogate’s Court, in tlie Vanderbilt
will ease, Cornelius J., son of the
testator, testified that his brother
William treated him haughtilv on all
occasions. In 1854 lie was arrested
and taken to a lunatic asylum, but
was at once discharged. He took a
writ of lialieas corpus, and, when the
court met, William and his counsel
told him helmd better go on with the
proceedings ; that lie was sent to tlie
asylum to save him from the State
prison for forgery, and if he went on
with it, he would go to prison and
his father would disinherit him. He
replied there was no foundation for
tlie charge, and went on with the
ease nnd was discharged, and imme
diately went to see the man lie was
alleged to have injured, who said it
was another man who did tlie wrong.
