DAILY ENQUIRER • SUN: COLUMBUS. GEQRGIA, FRIDAY_MQRNING, DECEMBER 21, 1877. COl.lIMIII)*, OA.l FRIDAY DEC. 21, 1877. LARGEST CITY CIRCULATION AVI) MORE THAN TWICE THE LARGEST AGGREGATE C'lnCl’l.ATIOJi ! Hkrvia eun put 80,000 men in tlie field, but her strategic position Is worth more to Russia than her army. We have four thousand one hun dred and fifty miles of railroad west of the summit of tlie Rocky Moun tains. , » -» «—■——— 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. What He Thinks About the tinheranto. rial Md Home*trad Mluir—He Ultra Atlaafa * B»» on the KmcKIm. 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. AKITATOMIAL *K.r»K, Judge Dulls Prsseuls Hmma Prsfllfsl 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.
