‘A WOODPECKER'S TAP OX A HOL¬
LOW OLD TREE. ••
One of the electioneering hobbies of
Gen Grant's Administration has been
"civil service reform.” Numerous con
sulfations have been held, ostensibly to
devise means of putting this idea into ef¬
ficient operation, and a system of forrpal
“rules” have been adopted for carrying it
into effect. And just here the thing
stopped. The public service has not
been improved in the least, so far as the
people can see, nor has any change been
made in the character of the appointees
to office. It is not denied that favorite
Congressmen have the selection of Feder¬
al officeholders for their respective States,
and it is undeniable that the same un
sern p,lions party hacks who had most in
flnence with Gen. Grant during his first
term have most favor with him now—such
men as Morton of Indiana, Cameron of
Pennsylvania, Conckling of New York.
Butler of Massachusetts. These and the
earpet-bag Congressmen from the South
are the real dispensers of patronage, and
it is freely used with an eye single to
the strengthening of the Radical party.
A Democrat, Conservative or Liberal,
however eminently qualified for any
Federal position, has no chance to obtain
it iu competition with the most corrupt
and incompetent Radical politician in the
land. This being so, is not the pretended
“civil service reform” of this Administra¬
tion the most arrant humbuggery ever
sought to be imposed upon the people?
“If “civil service reform” means any¬
thing beneficial to the country, it must
mean the selection of honest and compe¬
tent officers and their exclusive devotion
to the public duties of their positions.
But what is the reality? We see the Ad¬
ministration aud its subordinate officials
as actively as ever engaged iu the work of
bolstering up the Radical party. We daily
witness Federal interference in State poli¬
tics and ~ elections in a most shameful
manner and to an extent never before
practiced. Within the last week Radical
politicians of Virginia buve, according
to telegraphic repori, received from the
President himself assurances of his full
sympathy aud ready support. For some
time past two Radical delegations from
Texas have been perplexing tho Presi¬
dent with, their rival claims to his royal
favor, and according to the latest reports,
the faction opposed to Gov. Davis has
gained the day, and that State official
(though a Republican in whom there is
no good) will he thrown overboard. These
are but samples of tho maimer in which
State politics are now managed in Wash¬
ington, as between rival Radical factions.
When Federal intervention is needed in
any Southern State to protect a Radical
minority from defeat by a Democratic
majority, we have an instance in point in
the Louisiana case.
Even in Georgia wo see evidences of the
devotion of Federal power and patronage
to the keeping of the Radical party on its
legs, preparatory to some future outrage
on the people of the State. It is announc¬
ed from Washington that “Gov.” Bard
has already been promised government
advertising patronage to enable him to
start and maintain his paper at Atluuta—
such as advertisements for contracts to
supply (he forts iu Idaho, Now Mexico
and other far western territories with
beef, pork, flour, Ac. Assessments of
Federal office-holders for electioneering
purposes have also commenced, in proof
of which the Savannah News of Friday
publishes resolutions udoplod by tho Re¬
publican Committees of Chatham county.
By a resolution of the “Republican Couu¬
ty Committee of Chatham oouuty,” adopt¬
ed on (he UOtli of June last, the Federal
office-holders of the county were “request¬
ed to contribute monthly such percent,
of their salaries as may he necessary to
procure a full return of the Republican
tax-payers;” and by a resolution of the
Republican Executive Committee of
Chatham county,” adopted on the same
day, “the Federal office-holders in the
county he requested to pay monthly two
(2) per cent of their salaries, for the bene¬
fit of the Republican party of the county.”
This is Grant’s “civil service reform”—
this forced contribution of 24 per cent,
per annum of the office-holders’ salaries to
carry elections for the Radical party!
Was ever so glaring a deception attempt¬
ed ?

HAXTAXTA AND BIG TREE.
A correspondent of the Houston (Tex.)
Mercury thus describes the two Indian
chi*fs who are serving out a term iu the
Texas penitentiary, and whom Governor
Davis refuses to pardon unless the Nation¬
al Administration will first promise to as¬
sist him instead of the Radical postmas¬
ter at Galveston (Chirk) during tne coin
ing gubernatorial campaign in ihe Lone
Star State:
Sautanta is about fifty-three years of
age, above the average height, and com
pactly built, llis face wears a thoughtful
rather than a treacherous look, and his
large, keen eye has nothing of the devil¬
ish in it except when angered,then it Hash -
es and burns into yours like a living coal.
Big Tree, who is only a sort of second
lieutenant to Sant&nta, and has no infln
enco with the tribes, is a short, thick-sol.
wiry, treacherous-looking Sava: *
who.se coal-black eye gleams tho do-.,
do deeds that chill the blood to thin';
Strange to say, he is the most indust . iUll.I
of ti ie two, aud has actually learned the
art of putting a cane bottom in a chair.
Sautanta sits during the day in a different
shop, and chews tobacco, of which he is
a passionate lover. At night they both
occupy the same ceil. No. li. in the east
building. They are cleanly iu person and
habits only by the usual prison ooercion,
and they are industrious by the same pro¬
cess. Big Tree, according to this rule,
works all the time.
He is employed in a shop iu the third
storv, ’of and it is curious to see him looking
out the window every now and then)
curious to watch the emotions of his
heart, readable in his face, as he peers
into the woodland bordering the town.

MRS. LeVERT.
••Salt River"—Mrs. LeVert and Mr. Clay,
1844.
In my rustic solitude, I have lately been
handling some old papers and memoran¬
da, to revive memories of the past.
Among these are notes of a trip to Mobile
on a committee of twenty, to invite
the Hon. Henry Olay, to visit the
se.it of Government of Alabama. This
duty having been performed by the com¬
mittee, several of us remained a few days
to witness the performance of Mr. Mac
rendy in “Hamlet, for which he was au
nonuced on 4th of March, 1844. When
Mr. Clay entered the Theatre he was
cheered by the large audience, and the
ori hestra played a national air. With a
graceful how of acknowledgement, he
took the seat reserved for him by the
manager. During the whole performance
of the distinguished tragedian, I could
not resist the impression, and the hope,
that twelve mouths from, that very date,
Mr. Clay would pass hiH first night in the
Wiiite House as l’resident of the United
States.
Late in the next afternoon Mr. Clay was
escorted to the boat by a committee from
Montgomery, of which the Hon. B. S.
Bibb was chairman. A very large con¬
course of citizens were at the wharf to
witness his departure, and to testify ad¬
miration. At nearly all the landings, and
at all the towns on the Alabama river, the
people had collected in great numbers' to
obtain a glimpse of lmu—heartily cheer¬
ing as the boat arrived. At Selma a ban¬
quet had been prepared, and several hun¬
dred people from the country had waited
until a late hour in the night to witness
his reception by the corporate authorities.
A carriage ami four horses stood ready,
and he was conveyed to the hotel, where
an exchange of civilities took place.
While in Mobile Mr. Clay was the guest
of Dr. Le Vert, who, with his elegant
lady, accompanied him to Montgomery.
After their retnrn to the boat, from the
Selma demonstration, an amusing inci¬
dent took place, showing the good humor
Of Mr. Clay. He and a number of
friends who had gathered near him were
sitting by the stove, when Mrs. Le Vert,
with guitar in hand, was about to enter¬
tain us with music, At this juncture Col.
Jefferson Buford, a Senator in the Legis¬
lature, came into the circle and politely
requested her to play. With an enchanting
smile she turned to the Sage of Ashland,
and inquired if “Salt River” would bo an
agreeable air? “I never heard the song,
madam,” replied Mr. Clay, “nor do I
think it could ever become a favorite of
mine, because I have been rowed up that
stream so frequently and with so little re¬
gard to uiy comfort, its navigation has
become somewhat disagreeable; and I
fear the music, if in keeping with the
enage, cannot bo very charming, unless it
bo from your usual felicitous execution.
If Col. Buford desires a voyage up Salt
River, 1 hope he may he gratitiod, and
that you will cheer him with the song.
My taste docs not lie in that direction at
present.”
After the company had indulged a hearty
laugh at the humor of tho scene, the
guitar was sweetly touched to a different
air, and all were captivated. On such oc¬
casions, with a dozen gentlemen convers¬
ing with her at the same time, Mrs. Le
Vert had the happiest word for each, with
no embarrassment whatever, but with the
most pleasing effect upon all. M.
“ C.ESARISM.”
We call particular attention to the fol¬
lowing extract from an article iu the
Washington Republican, the semi-official
organ of the administration. It has,
doubtless, surprised a good many; but
when an inspired journal so readily re¬
solves to take its stand, we may expect
mere of the same kind from those anxious
to please the powers that be. It says;
“While the ^administration occupies
this attitude of entire indifference on the
subject, it cannot be denied that the
present slanderous warfare that is being
waged upon the President has created a
strong feeling iu favor of his renomina
tiou among a largejbody of his supportors
—a feeling that is as likely to sweep the
country ns uot, and give him a third term
in the Executive Mansion by a majority
more overwhelming than he received iu
’68 or in 72.”
The question will naturally be asked,
Is ibis threat the answer of the tone-giv¬
ers of tho Republican party to. an invita¬
tion to join in the discussion? If so, they
have, indeed, chosen a plan by which,
President Grant consenting, failure to
elect him for a third term would be im¬
possible. Translated into direct English,
it is that if everybody is content with
General Grant ho should serve auother
term, because of the universal satisfaction
ho has giveu; and, if anybody is disconten¬
ted with President Grant, a fortiori, should
he be forced to serve auother term? The
Columbia (S. C.,) Union Herald takes
the former ground. It says:
“This idea is taking the unmistakable
shape of American public opinion, and
the more we reflect upon the proposition
the more favor it meets with in our eyes.
* * * There is but one way to cover up
the past forever and convince the demo¬
cratic party that we meant business when
we beat them iu the last campaign, aud
that is to re-elect Gen. Grant for another
term. ” *
Other republican journals of the same
stripe put out feelers in the same direc¬
tion. We are aware that, had there been
no discussion of the third term question,
these journals would have guarded a dis¬
creet silence for some time longer. But
it is better for the republican party and
the nation that a perfect understanding
should exist regarding the positions of
all. Covert favor.of the third term pro¬
ject is what we most deprecate. Let us
kuow where the party aud its divisions
stand.— N. Y. Herald, 1th.
The Heal Tichborne.— The captain
of a trading vessel writes to the Yalpa
raiso Hail that some months since, while
at Byron’s Island, in the South Pacific, he
saw the real Sir Roger Tichborne, who is
now a chief among the natives. He i*
described as being so tattooed, from fore
head to heel, as hardly to be distinguished
as a white man. He showed the captain
a Liverpool paper containing a report of
the Tichborne trial, and said:
! “I am the rightful heir to that title and
j property, and all that is here stated in
this paper is false. How can I appear in
England to claim my just rights'? There
18 no escape from here. ” Here he ffimfelf became
greatly affected, but recovering
lie continued, "But so that I may be traced
by those who may be willing fong to succor me
and to rescue me from my captivfty
and place me in the position to which!
rightfully belong in the world. I would
refer them to the articles of the ship Ro

A Profitable Investment for
Capitalists.
.A. Cotton Factory
TO BEJBUILT.PN THE
Water Site of the Palace Mills,
Columbus, Ga..
It is proposed to build on the water
she of the Palace Mills, ft COTTON
FACTORY for the manufacture of Cotton
Goods. The Capital Stock will be #250,000,
which will include an ample floating capital.
The building and machinery will be erected
and arranged under the direction of J. Rhodes
Browne, Esq. The building will be a sub¬
stantial structure, and the machinery of the
most approved patterns.
The capital of the public is invited to this
enterprise as one promising sure, speedy and
profitable results. No subscription will be
binding until #200,000 is secured, when the sub¬
scribers will be invited to convene for the pur¬
pose of organizing the Company, and the work
will be commenced.
NO TAXATION, either State, County or
Municipal, attaches to this investment for
Ten Years. The BEST water power on the
river is secured; the warehouses of cotton are at
the door; the railroads radiate from the city to
every market for the goods; and operatives are
soliciting employment. With such advantages
is it unreasonable to promise a profit ol 20 per
cent, per annum on the investment.
Subscriptions will be received at the Chatta¬
hoochee National Bank; the Banking House of
John King, Esq.; the Merchants and Mechanics
Bank, and the Banking Office of the Georgia
Home Insurance Company.
