SUMNER AND AMNESTY.
It is stated in letters from Washington
that Senator Sumner has avowed his pur¬
pose to defeat the Amnesty bill, which the
House has passed, unless it has coupled
with it his Civil Rights provision. This
is a singular stand for a politician who
participated in the Liberal Republican
movement of last year, and accepted the
platform of that party, to take. But it is
in conformity with Sumner’s course at the
last session of Congress. As a three
fourths vote is required to pass an Amnes¬
ty bill, Sumner may he aide to carry his
point. It is at least very probable that
the friends of Amnesty will have either
to wait a while longer or to accept the
“civil rights” for which Sumner contends.
HARRIS COUNTY STILL AHEAD.
Cataula, Ga., Dec. 16, 1873.
Editor Sun :— I see by your paper of
to-day, that Win. A. Audrews, of Opelika,
boasts of being ahead of my next door
neighbor with his “Two Mule Crop.”
Now I propose to tell you what I have done
before you give Alabama the lead. With
one horse, fifteen years old, I made nine
(9) bales of cotton, averaging five hun¬
dred pounds each, and one hundred and
fifty pounds of lint cotton over that
amount; one hundred and twenty-five
measnred buRhela corn; five stacks fodder;
over one hundred bushels oats; one hun¬
dred bushels potatoes, and sold twenty
dollars worth of watermelons; all of
which will be vouched for by my neigh
bors. Now, who is ahead ?
Yours no more until another crop.

The Union Springs Grange of the Pat¬
rons of Husbandry carries out fully the ob¬
jects of the order, combining pleasure and
sooial enjoyment with business. The
Herald says that it meets every Saturday
at 10 a. in., aud passes the day in attend¬
ing to the increasing business of the Or¬
der. The farmers aud their wives, from
the oountry, bring their baskets well filled
with tempting viands, and spread a lunch
at dinner time that would honor any occa¬
sion. These weekly reunions are not on¬
ly pleasant socially, but they are profita¬
ble in the interchange of opinions on all
subjects of domestic economy, and tend
to stimulate the spirit of improvement in
home management generally.
Though a large portion of the route of
the Cincinnati Southern Railroad has been
located, the long agitated question as to
the route through Tennessee appears to
be yet undecided. It will run through
Linooln, Pulaski aud Wayne counties,
Kentucky, and enter Tennessee at Chit¬
wood. This place appears to be too far
west to favor the Knoxville route, but a
line from Chitwood due south would
ran thirty or forty miles east of Chatta¬
nooga, and there are two or three com¬
peting routes from Chitwood to Chatta¬
nooga.
The Dallas (Texas) Herald says the re¬
ceipts of cotton in that place have exceed¬
ed anything ever before known. About
1,400 bales were received in one day, one
half by wagons aud the other by railroad.
The total reoeipts for this season are ex¬
pected to reach 40,000 bales. The Her¬
ald says no one, in advance, supposed the
receipts would exceed twenty thousand
bales.
A Washington dispatch says the Presi¬
dent made support of his nomination of
Williams as Chief -Justice a test of fealty
to his Administration, and thus silenced
the opposition of some Republicans dis¬
posed to vote against it. Progressive if
true, isn’t it ?

An Englishman Pbospectino in the

is traveling in the United States, to in¬

study, as to the localities and advantages
to be obtained on this side of the Atlan¬
tic for settlers aud capitalists, The
doctor has already visited the Eastern
States and Canada, and left New York
lately for the West and Southern States.
Few men who have visted this country of
late years have entered so thoroughly and
impartially into the study of its institu¬
tions ns Dr. Marsh has done, and we look
forward with considerable interest to the
result of his investigations.
I)r. Marsh is an English physician, well
knowu as the author of several profes¬
sional aud scientific works, as well as a
popular lecturer. He is greatly interested
in the formation of a “British and Ameri¬
can Association,” to meet alternately in
each country for friendly intercourse, a
short session being spent in the discussion
of subjects of iuteruatioual interest and
importance, such as commerce, interna¬

Y\e heartily wish Dr. Marsh “Godspeed”
in his mission, aud predict that after due
acquaintance with both West and South
he will decide unhesitatingly in favor of
the claims ”

for persona and papers in the inquiry as
to the official conduct of Judge Bnsteed,
of Alabama, and a resolution instruct¬
ing that committee to inquire and report
whether Judge Durrell, of Louisiana,
should be impeached for high crime aud
misdemeanor, with power to send for per¬
sons and papers. Adopted.
Senate—Proceedings of this morning
show that there is little probability of the
passage of the Bankruptcy repeal before
the holidays.
Fenton is speaking on finance. This
chokes off the Louisiana question to-day.
Washington, Dec. 17.—In the Senate
to-day Bogy, reporting a private bill from
the Committee on Indian Affairs, took
occasion to severely criticise the Admin
j igtration on Indian affairs,and pronounced
the whole legislation a farce from begin¬
ning to end.
The House bill increasing the number
of enlisted men in May to 10,000, was re¬
ported, but Sherman opposing, the bill
went over.
There was a long debate on the House
bill to repeal the bankrupt laws.
Edmunds moved a reference to the
Judiciary Committee. He was satisfied
of the impolicy of an absolute repeal of
tbe bill, but thought that the committee
would be able to prepare a bill which
would relieve the present law of its ob¬
noxious features, and would at the same
time protect the interests of both credit
ors and debtors.
Frelinghuysen was also opposed to
absolute repeal, aud wanted it referred.
During the discussion of the motion to re¬
fer the morning boar expired. General
disposition indicates a repeal.
Fenton made a long speech on finan¬

WASHINGTON NEWS.
The Financial Condition of the Govern¬
ment—The Salary BUI.
Washington, Deo 17.—Several promi¬
nent members of Congress to-day, while
privately expressing their views about the
proposed holiday recess, said if the Senate
agreed to the House resolution for that
purpose, more than a month must elapse
before anything could be done for the re¬
lief of the Treasury. They alluded to the
fact that, while the redemption of the loan
of 1858 involved additional obligations,
tiie extraordinary appropriation of four
millions for the Navy exceeds what could
possibly be saved by a reduction of the
estimates, and besides the Secretary had
already drawn eighteen millions and a half
from the forty-four million reserve, with¬
out which the Treasury would now be
bankrupt. The reserve was constantly
being drawn upon, and therefore it was
imperative, with a due regard to the pub¬
lic credit, to paBs measures of relief with¬
out delay. What these should be they
were not prepared to say, but they, with
others, were prepared to restore the duty
on tea and coffee and increase the tax on
spirits and tobacco, which was the more
easily collectable, or they would agree to
a temporary convertible loan of say fifty
millions. At all events Congress should
not think of holiday adjournment until
ample provision be made for the Treasu¬
ry, the receipts of which yesterday were
uot more than one-third of what they
would have been but for the effects of the
pauio.
There was another feud day in the
House on the salary bill. After the bill
had been amended by requiring restitu¬
tion of the back-pay received by those
membera who had also been members of
the last Congress, a substitute was
adopted in spite of the opposition of the
friends of the reduction, and of the com¬
mittee who had charge of the bill. The
substitute makes the salary of members
$6,000, with an allowance for actual
| traveling expenses, But it has no retro
active effect. There was great confusion
and excitement in the House during the
i lswt three or four hours, and it was not un
til 9 o’clock that the House adjourned.

Montgomery. Ala., Dec. ID—The Sen¬
ate last night unseated Hatch, Senator
from Hall county, elected last spring to
fill a vacancy. It seems that three years
ago Hatch was postmaster at the county
site of Hall county. Moneys were missed
from the mails, and Hatch made affidavit
and accused Sanborn his clerk. After
Sonborn had been jailed several months,
the investigation pressed Hatch so close
that he wrote a confessionof his own guilt,
which was published, and agreed with the
special agent, Petheridge, to pay up.
Suit was commenced in the United States
Court and Hatch was turned out of office.
Hatch then ran for the Senate and was
elected by a large majority; but on the
above showing the Senate declared him
ineligible. He is a Republican.
CE8PEDES DEPOSED.
Havana, Dec. 17.—The following intel¬

deposed Cespedes from the Presidency by
virtue of the powers conceded the legisla¬
tive branch in articles seventh, eight, and
ninth of the constitution of Guimars. The
object of this act is understood to be
the restoration to power of the old Junta
of New York. Pancho Aguilera will take
charge of the Presidency, which is now
filled ad interim by the Marquis of Santa
Lucia, a member of the House of Repre¬
sentatives under the new administration.
