Hester vs. Waddel.
We mast confess to some surprise at
being taken to task by our able Senator
for the publication of Mr. Waddell’s let
ter. We publish it simply as legitimate
news, as we publish other matter. In
the same issue of the paper, on the local
page, we publish tho only synopsis of
Mr. Hester’s speech we have seen. The
publishers of the Constitution have nev
er seen proper to send us their daily, in
which issue, we suppose, the only full
report of the Honorable Senator’s speech
appeared. We are free to confoss, how
ever, that the fanfaronade of Mr. Wad
dell made but little impression upon us,
and certainly did not change our esti
mate of the Senator’s integrity or use
fulness, and we sre confident we can say
the same for the great body of his con
stituents.
Gentlemen occupying public positions
have frequently to submit to such pub
licalions, and we know of no reason why
Senator Hester should claim immunity
from a like ordeal. But why we alone
should be found fault witli for publish
ing the letter in The Gazette when
quite a number of other papers in the
State were guilty of the same act, wo
cannot in justice see.
As to the manner in which Waddell
got his letter into print, we have noth
ing to say, only that we did not find it
in the paper the Senator says was paid
to publish it.

Atlanta's New Daily,
We received last week the first copy
of tho “Atlanta Courier,” a sprightly,
handsome paper, published by A I*.
Woodward, It. A. Alston and H. W.
Grady, editors. The Herald having
been closed up by tho sheriff, this paper
takes its place. The well known ability
of Messrs. Alston and Grady can but
assure the success of the Courier, R3 wo
are satisfied a city of Atlanta’s spriglit
liness can and will sustain two papers
We wish the candidate for public favor
the greatest success.
A NEW DEPARTUEE EY THE COLORED
PEOPLE
A delegation of colored men called at
the rooms of the Demacratic National
Committee, asking political recognition.
Their printed declaration, which was
adopted by a large meeting held hero
Faiday, February 28th, commences:
“We, colored men, representing nearly
all the States and Territories of the
United Stages,” and concluded: “We
are tired of our self imposed party yoke,
its injustice of us and its flagrant viola
tions of the Constitution, in order to
trample out local self-government find
insult baave and well disposed fellow ci
tizens of the South, and earnestly 1 e
leive that a division of the solid phalanx
of colored voters will act beneficially
upon the too great parties, and there
fore we propose to stand by principles
and will do the most for us. This
policy we believe will enure to the
lasting tranquility of the country, and
a speedy return to good feeling between
the late master and the now free citizen
will follow. And we invoke the bles
sing of Almightly God upon this care
fully considered departure, invite the
hearty and cocdial co operation of
tho colored people of tho whole
country, who, like us, have cause for
well grounded complaint, to organize,
to the end that their ballots may sub
serve the peace of the fratertization
of all the people, and the prosperity and
unifiction of all the sections of our un
divisible republic.” Committee on lie
solutions : Rev. Garland II White, of
North Carolina ; Howard L. Smith, of
Virginia; Robert D. Mortimer, Rhode
Island, A. Alex Jones, of Massachusetts ;

Lewis, of District of Columbia; Dr.

Alabama Democrats are not the only
enemies that beset that imaculate cham
pion of the administration, Senator
Spencer. A deputation of Alabama Re
publicans, headed by an ex-governor and
an ex member of Congress, waited on
President Grant a few day ago, to re
monstrate against the Federal patronage
in that State being all placed in the con
trol of one man—and that man Spencer.
They declared that many of the Federal
officials in Alabama are “incompetent,
unfit and corrupt, and their continuance
in office would bring disgrace upon the
party.”
The Columbus Times thinks “the fine
pathos” of Senator Hester, in regard to
the State Lottery, “falls flat.”. So. But
we think we can assure the Senator if
he never falls any flatter than he did
when he attacked the Lottery, he will
stand orect for many a long day. The
charity \ that furnishes an excuse for
gambling and demoralzation among the
ignorant and superstitious we look upon
as utterly unworthy; and those who
have watched the mob of idle and half
starved negroes “playing policy” at the
different branches of the Georgia State
Lottery will agree with us that the con
cern is not only demoralizing, but is a
positive nuisance.

©ffTß* WASHINGTON LETTER.
FROM OUK REGULAR CORRESPONDENT.
Washington, D, C., Feb. 25, 1876.
It is somewhat curious, and no little interest
ing to persons having business in the depart
ments, to witness tho immense amount of eir
emulation and red tape, necessary to get even a
small matter attended to. The latest illustra
tion of this fact was when the House requested
the Secretary of the Treasury, by resolution, to
furnish a list ot private houses used for public
purposes in Washington, with amounts paid tor
rent &c. When the answer returned to that
body, it was found to have passed through the
hands of six clerks, and the assistant secretary;
all this to prepare a letter which on ordinary
man of business could write in a couple of
hours.
The work of investigation has now become
so immense that the committees have, many of
them, been compelled to ask leave to sit during
the Session of the House. The Naval Commit
tee especially has its hands full. At every step
they find some new wrong to be righted, some
additional fraud to be reciified and punished.
It would not be at alHsurprising it these com
mittees should be compelled to sit during the
whole recess.
Mr. Banning, of Ohio, luts introduced a bill
lor the gradual reduction of the Army to eight
regiments of cavalry and twenty-three of in
fantry, and a single corps of altillery.
In the Pension Office, yesterday, forty five
clerks, mostly ladies, received their dismissal
For the majority or them there has been no res j
use, and as many were brought here by parties
in power, from distant .States, it is likely there
may be positive suffering among them. A clerk
ship is certainly the most thankless office -on
the face of the earth. The pay is a mere pit
tance compared with what might be earned by
the same person in other pursuits, and the life
h one of constant aud uuremittiug drugery,
compared with which the existence of a plow
boy is paradise.
General Fremont has been before the Com
mittee in regard to the Memphis and E. .Paso
R. R. Matter. There was undoubtedly, as it
appears, a large amount of money spent, but no
Congressman received anything, according to
his showing.
The Senate Finance Committee reported a
bill Friday, ammending the law to refund tlie
national debt, which increases the amount of
bonds bearing 4J per cent, interest to five hun
dred million, and provides for their redemption
after thirty years from the date of issue, at the
pleasure of tho United States.
Nothing attracts more general interest here—
as it should all over the whole country—than
the investigation of the doiug3 and n isdoings
of the Board of Audit. It came into existence
soon after Shepherd was overthrown. Shep
herd, however, merely stepped behind the scenes,
for ho continued in reality as much the master
of District affairs as when actually governor.
Asa sample of how things were managed by
the Board of Audit, I may mention the fees paid
to Mattingly, Stanton and Harrington, three at
torneys who conducted Shepherd’s defence be
fore a former committee. The first received
$5,000 ; the second $4,000, and the last $3,000.
In addition to these claims (which were paid), a
large and exorbitant sum was paid to Murtagh,
whose bill, it appears, Shepherd himself prom
ised to secure; but being himself deposed, com
pelled the Board of wudit (his satellites) to
settle in full. This is but one of a thousand
instances in which the tax-payers of this Dis
trict have been fleeced and plundered under the
forms of law. These claims were made, too,
it {gainst the earnest protest of numbers of in
fluential citizens.
A currency famine seems imminent, since
none of the currency received at the treasury
is paid out again, and it is sta'ed that there is
not sufficient on baud to last more than two
months. Pretty financiers, indeed, are our Re
publican friends, when they have allowed mat
ters to come to this point.
In the Senate, on Thursday, Senator Withers
called up the hill which provides for the restor
ation to the pension rolls of the names of those
veterans of 1812 which have been dropped from
the rolls on account of disloyalty. There is
really no good and sufficient reason why these
few old soldiers—numbering somewhat over two
hundred—should be deprived of their pensions
and kept in poverty, on account of a single mis
take. It may well be taken as a sign of return
ing good feeling when the Government shows
itself willing to set the example of forgetfulness.
By the way, it is thought there will be less re
duction made in the appropriation for pensions
than in any other direction, though many
changes will be wrought in the manner of its
distribution, and a largo reduction in the
employees of the bureau.
Arguments were listened to on yesterday, by
the Committee on Post Offices, in favor of abol
ishing the carriage of merchandize by that De
partment. It will of course redound to the in
terest of the express companies, if such action
is decided upon ; yet, in view of the apparent
unreliability of the mails, as evidenced in the
number of articles consigned to the Dead-letter
Office, and recently sold, it may prove, while
somewhat more expensive, a great deal more
certain a means of transit-.
Hon. John M. Rice, ex-Congressman, and re
cently Libraiinn of the House, has resigned ;
and it is rumored Hon. John D. Young will be
appointed in his stead.
The acquittal of Babcock, while it has legally
settled his innocence, has not by any liieens
done so morally. People shrug their shoulders,
and confidently believe that he can never again
assume the honorable position which he once
occupied in the Army. He may not have re
ceived any of the proceeds of those frauds yet
he “touched pitch, and was defiled.”
Speaker Kerr has returned, after a short va
cation. 11 is health seems much improved, and
he now presides with his accustomed dignity.
Seuatoi Sharon, of Nevada, has finally made
up his mind to look somewhat after the interests
of his State, and is now in lii^seat
It is very patent that serious difficulties have
occurred in the Cabinet lately. The President
has found in Bristow a man entirely two honest
and determined. He thought him like the rest
of them—easily controlled and moulded—and
was doubtless surprised to find him the opposite.
The great difficulty was that Bristow was too
dull to understand that his prosecutions should
not endanger the peace of the White House, or
the thiad terra. Matters will probably be ami
cably settled, as Babcock has escaped obsolute
punishment. Reno.
A Toast.— Two Important Discoveries : The
discovery of America by Columbus, and Dr.
Pierce’s Golden Medical Discovery; the one
opening up to mankind anew continent, the
other a fountian of health, which is indispensa
ble to the full enjoyment of life and its blessings.
In response to the above sentime it come the
unsolicited attestations of tens of thousands of
grateful patients, tvlto have been relieved ot
ehornic ailments through its instrumentality.
Those voices are limited to no one locality, but
from every city, village, and hamlet, in out
broad domain, as well as from other climes, and
in the -strange utterances of foreign tongues,
like the confused murmur of many waters, come
unfeigned and hearty commendations. It is, in
combination with the pleasant Purgative Pellets,
ihe great depurator of ihe age. Under its be
nign action eruptions disappear, excessive waste
is checked, the nerves are strengthened, and
health long banished from the system, resumes
her reign add re-establishes lu-r roseate throne
upon the cheek. All who have thoroughly
tested its virtues In the diseases for which it is
recommended unite in pronouncing it the great
Medical Discovery of the age.
HART COUNTY DEPARTMENT.
BY OUR SPECIAL CORRESPONDENT.
HARTWELL, ::::::::: Mar. f3, 1576.
Hart Superior Court
Vv hich la near at band, -will be one of
some importance to this county, as there
is considerable business on the various
dockets of the court.
The most important case of the ses
sion is the Equity case of Ann D. Sad
dler and others versus, Jeptha M. Brad
ley, Isham A. Teazely and others, which
case was sent back from the Supreme
court for anew trial.
There are two or three criminal cases
to be tried, our jail having two or three
occupants, all of whom are colored gen
tlemen, we believe.
Hartwell Debating Society
Had an interesting meeting on last Fri
day night, as there was held a public de
bate in the Methodist church, the subject
of which was, “Is there more to be ad
mired in the life and character of Napo
Jeon Bonapart than to be condemned ?”
The disputants were F. B. Hodges,
Esq., and Walker Peek, on the negative
side, and A. G. McCurry and Lee Lin
der, Esq’s., on the side of the affirmative.
The presidents were Rev’d Mr. Barton,
S- M, Bobo and John R. Kay, whose de
cision was on the side of the affirmative.
The arguments on both sides were very
able and eloquent, and we have heart!
particular mention of the speeches of
Messrs. Peek and McCurry, as having
been very fine. The next public debate
will Joe given one night of court week.

and is of an approved pattern, with ca
pacity sufficient to do a large busines.
The mill is situated on tho land of
Mr. W. Y. Holland about a quarter of a
mile from town, near the road leading to
Brown’s ferry.
We understand that the firm contem
plate attaching a grist mill to their en

ness of no small importance.
Wc predict for the new firm a large
and prosperous business, for with tho
men that manage the concern there is
no such word as fail, and besides the
mill will be a great blessing for our com
munity.

Wasington is thick with rumors in
reference to prospective Cabinet and
other charges. The stuation is feverish
as to the Treasury Department, and it is
said lo be quite certain that Bristow’s
tenure of office hangs largely upon the
result of the Babcock trail. If Bab is
acquitted, Bristow will retire. The suc
cession is located upon Edwin D. Mor

that Postmaster General Jewell will
