Senator Conkling and the St. Louis

General Sherman does not stand on cere
monious etiquette. The other night at a re
ception given in bis own house, when Mrs.
Gov. Hawley arrived, accompanied by her
own “Makepeace,” he announced her to his
daughter, in this hearty way : “What, Joe
Hawley s wife? Here, Lizzie, this is Joe
Hawley’s wife!” It seemed a particularly
nice thing all that evening to be “Joe Haw

popularity brought this lady many con
gratulations on his recent election from
the stateliest dignitaries present.
The decision of Judge Woods, In sustain
ing tiie decrees of the Railroad Commis
sion, removes all obstacles to tho enforce
ment of its provisions. It Is best that it
should bo so. The commission will now
stand or fall upon its own merits If its
powers are too groat, they can be abridg
ed by the Legislature. The Chronicle fa
vors the maintenance of the Commission
as an an advisory board. Experience
proves that the “more unhampered such
Commissions have been by the laws creat
ing them, the better the results they have
been ab le to accomplish.” General Alexan
der was amply sustained by the record
when ho said that the Massachusetts Com
mission has probably accomplished great
er results than that of any other State; and
it has accomplished them without any le
gal power to enforce its decisions."—Chron.

It is certainly a blessing to have a safe
reliable and cheap remedy for coughs and
colds near at hand this season of tho year.

ARROGANCE.
Probably the most arrogant human be
ing now on earth is Conkling, the Senator
from New Yack. Instead of learning from
experience he seems to get worse, and yet
In every encounter he comes off second
best. Just after the war, when he and
Blaine were both members of the House,
he tried to run rough shod over Blaine.
Blaine gave him a terrible drumming, and
in tho course of his remarks compared the
strutting Conkling to a turkey gobbler.
From that time to this, these two shining
lights in the Radical camp have been on
unfriendly terms. Conkling also had
some harsh words with Senator Gordon a
few' years ago in the Senate, and later,
Senator Lamar gave him a terrible rasp
ing. In the Republican convention last year,
which nominated candidates for Presi
dent and Vice President, he was exceeding
ly overbearing towards his party allies.
His latest performance in this line was in
a tilt, a few days ago, with Senator Butler
of South Carolina, upon- which occasion
his air bladder was punctured by the South
Carolina Senator. If the object of Conk
ling is to render himself detestable and
detested he has succeeded admirably.
FOR THE YOUNG PEOPLE.
CABINET OFFICERS ON THE FLOOR
OF THE SENATE AND HOUSE.
Mr. Pendleton, of Ohio, from the Senate
Committee, appointed to consider the mat
ter, repotted a bill to allow Cabinet Ofllcere
to occupy seats on the floor or the Senate
and House and participate In the debates
but not to vote. This is the English cus
tom where the British Ministers have seats
in tho House of Commons and participate
in the debates.
President-elect, Garfield, in Juiy, 1S77
contributed to the Atlanta Monthly an ar
ticle from which we extract the following:
“I have long believed that the official re
lation between the Executive and Congress
should be more open and direct. They sire
now conducted by correspondence with
the presiding oflicers or the two Houses,
by consultation with committees, or by
private interviews with Individual mem
bers. This frequently lends to misunder
standings, and may lead to oorrupt combi
nations. It would be far better for both de
portments if the members of the Cabinet
were permitted to sit in Congress and par
ticipate in tho debates on measures relat
ing to their departments,’but of course
without a vote. This would tend to secure
the ablest race for the chief oxecutive of
fices, it would bring the policy of the ad
ministration into the fullest publicity by
giving both parties ample opportunity for
criticism and defence.’'
Thus we see two of the ablest states
men In each of the great political parties of
the country, coinciding in their views upon
this question. We believe the more the
people of the United States reflect upon the
subject tho more they will approve the
measure. We see an exemplification or the
value of this custom In the daily business
of the House of Commons in England.
There any member can at any time ask
questions of tho different cabinet officers
in relation to matters in connection with
their departments of government. Infor
mation is thus directly and speedily and,
by cross-questioning, thoroughly obtained
on all subjects; the minds of members
are snlighted and business facilitated. We
believe it to bo a measure for the public
good and would be glad to see it adopted
by the American Congress.
CROAKERS.
Some writers and newspapers, Demo
cratic in creed, are forever blaming the
Democratic leaders as asses and predict
ing the permanent downfall of the party.
These prophets ol evil, whose minds are
imbued with the spirit of Poe’s Raven, are
among the most short-sighted people In
the world. The Democratic party can nev
er die because it is founded on the immuta
ble principles of law, justice and right.
The more it 13 whipped and defeated, the
tougher and stronger it grows. Hancock
narrowly escaped being elected President
and received a ipopular majority of 6,000
over Garfield. Let Democrats remember
that “Eternal vigilance is the price of lib
erty.” Watch and pray, and, in good time
by the ordinary operation of the laws of
reason and truth, Democratic principles
will control our country.

AN INTERESTING LETTER FROM
VIRGINIA.
Abingdon, Va., >
February 9th, 1881. f
Dear AIr. Editor:—This town of Ab
ingdon I fmd to be one of the briskest lit
tle places I have struck in a long time. It
has something over two thousand inhabi
tants, located In the lower end of the great
“Valley of Virginia” and amid the moun
tains of the Southwest. It has Immense
tobacco (besides other) manufacturing in
terests, an'enormous cattle trade, (shipping
the fine thoroughbred shorthorns raised in
this section as far as England, direct), and
a large lumber trade, which supplies New
York with some of the finest walnut and j
poplar I ever laid eyes upon. And besides
It is quite an educational point, tho second
I believo in the State, having three largo
female colleges, (Methodist, Presbyterian,
and a Catholic Convent,) a flourishing and
widely known male college (Emory and
Henry) within alow miles and a high school
of the highest character for young men.
The whole country abounds in points of his
torical note and natural features of great in
terest, some of which I will describe to you
later. At the west eurious freaks of na
ture I have seen hat is called here the
“Seven Springs.^ It is the outburst, with
in a very short distance of each other, of
seven mineral springs, each one differing
from the others, in mineral properties,
which are, sulphates, chloride, phosphates,
Ac. These springs having long been visit
ed and the waters utilized successfully for
various diseases, .the owners happily con
ceived the idea of making the highly cura
tive properties of the water available to
tho afflicted in every part of the Union,
without the expense of personally attend
ing the springs. This they have succeed
ed in doing by boiling the combined waters
to a condensed form, just as salt,sugar, Ae.,
are made, raaffiqg a salts dr moss retain
ing the medicinal properties cf the waters.
This salts Is called the “Seven Springs Iron
and Alum Mass,” and It is sold to be more
effective in curing diseases than the waters
are, and lias attained already a wonderful
reputation as a tonic-alterative, astringent,
aperient, Ac. It Is highly recommended by
both physicians and patients who have used
it for chronic and constitutional diseases,
and especially those peculiar to females.
The “Iron and Alum" themselves suggest
their effectiveness in relieving tho stomach
of acidities and the blood of impurities,
hence, I am told that for indigestion,dyspep-
ia, dysentery, croup and oolic it positive
ly has no equal. I advise all who need a
remedy cf tho kind to address the manu
facturers, Landrum A Litchfield, Abingdon,
Va., or their wholesale druggists—a num
ber of whom are in Georgia. It is not a
“patent medicine" but In tho list of materia
medica, therefore I do not hesitate to speak
of it. More anon.
yours truly, H.
From a railroad official, who has just re
turned from the South, we learn that sev
eral of the more important lines ore ar

nati Enquirer.
We intend, from time to time, to prepare
articles of interest for the younger mem
bers of the families of our readers. Many
of them, probably, ore so situated that
they lack the advantages of scientific edu
cation. Our paper Is the people’s paper,
Our main point Is to protect their interests,
for we know that, in protecting them, we
are protecting the interest of all; for all
prosperity depends upon the work and la
bor of the people. Our highest ambition Is
to promote and maintain, as far as we can,
the rights and happiness of the great
masses of our State and country. Every
man, who has a family, should be solici
tous to have his children educated and in
tellectually advanced as rapidly as possi
ble, and it is our purpose to aid in effecting
tliat as far as we can through the Instru
mentality of the Press. While it Is not in
our power to do all that may be accom
plished by the educators of tho country,
we feel that we may do much to assist
them in tho great work in which they are
engaged. We are too apt to overlook the
value of education and the laborious work
of those engaged In It. We know of no
ciass of citizens, male, or female, who are
more worthy of profound .respect and ad'
miration, than those who are devoting
tlieir time to tho instruction of youth, and
wo proudly add our inite as journalists to
aid them in the accomplishment or their
laborious work. Of course it is impossible
for us to go into the minute details neces
sary to effect the great ends they have in
view, but we can excite the ambition of
scholars to achieve results that will be
both useful and important in their ad
vaneement in knowledge, which teachers
are so earnestly seeking to effect. They
go into details. We can only cite in science,
history, and tho general pursuit of knowl
edge, facts that may incite, to more
thorough investigation In intellectual im
provement. And for this purpose we will
refer to certain facts that interest tho young
mind and encourage youth to the more ex
tensive investigations that fill the measure
of their wants. Each science has its devo
tees, attracted by personal interest, the
love of fame, or the gratification of pecu
liarities. What we will present on this oc
casion is a mere incident in astronomical
science. Wo refer to the grand science
that treats of suns and satellites, and of
tho universal creations of the great Eter
nal. But tliis, in general, would take up
columns of space. Wo would refer now to
a single instance of the wonders of God’s
creation, and it has reference alone to our
solar system and simply to our earth and
its moon. We havo studied all the planets
of our solar system, their distances from
the sun, their immense orbits around it>
their moons and belts and rings, but we
know of notiiing more singular and beau-
ful than the earth on which we live and
the moon which sheds its soft and liquid
rays upon it.
Mercury is tho 1st planet from the sun,
Venus is the 2d, and tho earth upon which
we live, is the 3d.
As all lovers know, it Is attended by a
moon whose tender radiance fills tho air
and sky and sleeps so lovely upon all tor-
restia! tilings. The earth is variously es
timated to bo betweon ninety-two and
ninety-five millions of miles from tho sun.
Neither Mercury nor Venus has a moon.
Tiie Earth’s moon is called its satellite,
because it revolves around tiie earth, as
both it and the oarth revolves around the
sun. What a revolution that is, when its
orbit velocity is 98,100 feet per second and
to complete it, requires 365 days and very
nearly 6 hours. All of us living upon the
earth, arc thus travelling through space at
the rate of 1,000 miles per hour. But we
are travelling beyond our purpose, the
main object being to present to tiie reader
the most glorious and beautiful object that
can be seen in connection with our earth
and moon, though it can never be seen by
the inhabitants of earth.
All astronomers agree in saying that the
Earth presents to the inhabitants of the
moon precisely the same phases that the
moon presents to us. We do not know
that the moon is inhabited, but if it is,
what a wealth of light and glory rises to
their view when the earth becomes a full
moon to them ! What a sight when she
rises in a cloudless night, 13 times larger
than our moon is to us! The angels, Cheru
binis and spirits, who were ca9t from
Heaven to Pandemonium, are poetically
described as crying aloud when Satan was
seen, in all tho remnants of his archangeiie
glory, descending In the distance:
“Como!—He comes the crimson king!
On ills broad wide-wandering wing,
As a comet fierce and bright,
Rushes through a moonless night.
Hail! Hail! Hail! we sing,
Great welcome unto our exile king.”
How different tiie Earth rises as a full
moon to the enraptured people of her moon:
Hail! Hail! Hail! we sing to-night.
Great welcome to our king of light!
Such is tli“ Earth to the admiring Luna
rians. What a time to scatter sweet music
on the air, and breathe love divine into
listening and willing ears! Nothing can
equal it, not even tiie appearance of the
' morn. What would wo not give

A FARCE.
No one can lead tiie proceedings of the
Senate and House or Representatives in
declaring the result of the Presidential
vote, without beiDg struck with the farci
cal nature of a part of tiie proceedings.
The vote of Geocgia was cast in Atlanta,
Ga, by tho chosen electors on a day differ
ent from the day appointed by a law of
congress. This was simply a mistake on
the part of the State authorities. Senators
Hill aud Thurman thought the vote should
not be counted. Senator Jones of Florida,
one of tiie ablest lawyers in tho Senate,
thought it should be counted. It was the
duty of Congress to decide whether the
vote of Georgia should be counted or not.
Did Congress perform this plain; duty? It
did not. But they adopted a rule worthy
of a Congress of school boys, to-wit:
If the vote of Georgia is counted Hancock
has so many votes. If not counted he has
the same vote witli the vote of Georgia
left out. Anyhow Garfield is elected Pres
ident. In fact and truth the vote of Geor
gia was not counted. It is said that Con
gress is compossed of all classes of the
people of the United Stales. One point is
certain, the class of weak men is not 1111-
representated in that august Bod}’.

HON. JOHN A. CUTHBERT.
The Oldest Li ring Ex-Member of Congress,
and the Famous Family to Which
He Bel—ga.
[The Sunny South.]
The Hon. John A. Cuthbert, a resident of
Mobile, Ala, is the oldest living ex-member
of Congress. He was born at Savannah,
Ga^ in 1788; graduated at Princeton Col
lege in 1805; served in the war of 1812-15,
and was a Representative from Alabama
from 1819 to 1821, sixty years ago. He is
still hale and hearty, and practices law In
the Courts of Mobile.
The foregoing paragraph we clip from
Leslie’s Illustrated Weekly. It contains a
material error, which we desire to correct.
John A. Cuthbert was at the time stated a
member of Congress from Georgia, bis na
tive State, not from Alabama, the State of
his adoption. In other respects it is true.
Mr. Cuthbert Is a member of one of the old
est and most distinguished families of
Georgia. He is a grandson of Col. Joseph
Clay, a soldier of the Revolution, an officer
in Gen. Greene’s army, and a member of the
Continental Congress. His lather was Seth
John Cuthbert, a prominent Revolutionary
patriot of Georgia. He Is a brother of Al
fred Cuthbert, who was a United States
Senator from Georgia for more than one
term. The descendants of Col. Joseph Clay
are remarkable for their talents and dis
tinction. They present one of the few Il
lustrations of the transmission of talent.
His son, Joseph Clay, Jr., was a lawyet
and Judge of eminence during the latter
years of the last century in Savannah,
Georgia. He was the legal preceptor of
Judge Berrien, and if Judge Berrien were
now living he would have entered on his
hundredth year. Judge Clay was an ora
tor—an eloquent advocate, having great
power over juries. There is a tradition
that at the close of one of his most effec
tive appeals in behalf of a criminal, the
presiding Judge, in tears, said to the sob
bing jury, “Beware of the eloquence of that
man.” He suddenly became pious, enter
ed the Baptist ministry, accepted the pas
torate of a church In Boston, and there
died In 1811, at the early age of 47. One of
his daughters married Wm. Rufus Gray, a
prominent citizen of Boston and their de
scendants ore now among the most wealthy,
refined and cultivated people of that city.
After the death of Judge Clay his family
returned to Georgia, and resided on their
estate in Bryan county. There, many
years ago died, his only son, Thomas S.
Clay, on elegant gentleman, noted for his
piety and benevolence; and there now re
sides his only surviving child, Miss Eliza
Clay. A daughter of Col. Joseph Clay
married Samuel Stiles; and by this mar
riage came Rev. Dr. Joseph C. Stiles, and
Hon. Wm. H. Stiles, a member of Congress
from Georgia. Both were men of talent
and distinction. Dr. Stiles was In the very
first rank of able and eloquent divines of
the South. He and Richard Fuller were
cotemporaries, and twin brothers in pulpit
eloquence—tho first a Presbyterian—the
second a Baptist. Another daughter of
Colonel Joseph Clay married Thomas Cum-
mlng, and by this marriage we have Wil
liam, Henry, Alfred and Joseph Gumming.
All wore men of note and some of the first
order of ability. William distinguished
himself os an officer of the United States
army in the war of 1812 and afterwards as
a lawyer. Ha became known to the whole
nation by his duel with George McDuffie.
Wallace Cummlng, a worthy, useful and
prominent citizen of Savannah, who died a
year or two since, was a son of Joseph;
and Joseph B. Gumming, of Augusta, who
is one of the very first of the Augusta bar,
and has been Speaker of tho Georgia
House of Representatives, is a son of Col.
Henry Cummlng. His brother Julion, now
deceased, had one of the most wonderfully
brilliant minds that Georgia or any other
country ever produced.
CoL Joseph Clay, the common ancestor
of the persons we have named, was a native
Virginian, and of the same stock as the fa
mous Henry Clay, of Kentucky. His wife
was a French lady named LeGardarez, who
had a family connection with the Georgia
Habershams of the ante-revolutionary
period.
John A. Cuthbert is the oldest survivor
of this remarkable family, as well as “the
oldest living ex-member of Congress.”
On the 3d of June last he completed his
ninety-second year, and has now fairly en
tered on his ninety-third. Long may he
be spared to us.

NEW GEORGIA MAIL ROUTES.
F. H. K., the Interesting correspondent of
the Atlanta Constitution, says:
Georgia gets twenty-three new routes,
distributed over the State very justly, it
seems. Some of them connect by facilities
places now imperfectly served, while oth
ers trench on new territory whose roads
will make their first acquaintance with the
mall rider.
The following is a list of the new routes
for Georgia.
From Morgan to Ward Station, South
western railroad.
From Spring Place, via Rainy’s store
and Carter’s, to Talking Rock.
From Hammond’s Mills, via Orsnan’s, to
Fouche's Mills.
From Lamar to Sumterville.
From Ringgold to Crawfish Spring.
From Harlem to Appling court house.
* From Warsaw, via Mazeppa, to Alpha
retta.
From Jonesboro to Milner’s store.
From Doravllle to Oak Grove.
From Barnesville to Person’s store.
From Auraria to Juno.
From Tifton, via John Fletcher’s Sr., and
A. E. dements,’ to Wolf creek.
From Lumber City, via Sylvan Home, to
Clork'SBluC.
From Dallas, via Embryvllle, to Drake-
Prom Togaloto Big Smith’s.
From Baxley’s via G. J. Holton’s, to Dan
iel Lott's store.
From Baxley to BlcboU’s.
From Bedlog to Wrightsville.
From House Creek via William’s Mills, to
Wolf Creek.
From Greensboro, via Liberty, Sunset-
view, and Neary’s, to Sparta.
From Wrightsville, via Snell’s bridge
over the Ohoopee river, to Fortune.
From Hawkinsville to R. A. Bldgood’s.
From Mount Vernon to Gieger's Mills.
The root that Georgia secures twenty-
three new routes Is a tribute to her repre
sentatives. It will be seen that no other
Southern State is so fortunate except Tex
as and the gnat area and growth of Texas
obtained only four more routes than Geor-

Washington, Feb. 5tb—The Senate pass
ed the House Joint Resolution inviting the
government and people of France and the
family of LaFayette to participate with
the government and people of the United
States in the Yorktown Centennial Celebra
tion next October. The House passed the
Senate’s resolution to count the electoral
vote. In the debate Mr. Felton said Geor
gia was loyal to the laws of Congress. He
alluded to the ignorance of the Georgia au
thorities in casting the vote for Hanoockon
the wrong day. He was applauded by the
Republicans. Mr. Speer criticised the bour
bon Democracy of Georgia. Mr. Cooke
sold all the people of Georgia were loyal
except Robert Toombs who was a special
advocate of Felton. Mr. Hammond of Geor
gia alluding to “Independents,” said good
animals, like deer and cattle, marched in
herds, but hurtful animals, like wolves and
foxes, marched by themselves.
Feb. 7th—Senators Hamlin and Thur
man were appointed tellers for the Senate
In the electoral count meeting.
General Butler then spoke at considera
ble length upon the alleged census frauds
in South Carolina, and criticized severely
speeches made by a certain stump orator
(understood to be Conkling) In New York,
during the late Presidential campaign, in
which that stump orator Insulted and vlli
fled the people of South Carolina and ac
cused them of a conspiracy to fraudulently
increase the census enumeration In order
to obtain greater political power. The fal
slty and baseness of the accusation, Mr.
Butler sold, were shown by the results o*
the resent re-enumeration under the direc
tion of General Walker, who was a Repub
lican and also a gentleman.
At the conclusion of Mr. Butler’s remark
Mr. Conkling said he Inferred from the lit
tle he had heard of the gentleman’s speech
that it was designed as an attack upon him
self, and that he had only to say that the
vaporing of the Senator from South Caro
lina gave him little concern. If he had
done any injustice to the people of South
Carolina he would find seasonable occasion
to correct it.
Mr. Butler—“The Senator has said that
the vaporlngs of the Senator from South
Carolina are matters of no concern to him.
He will pardon me for saying that the
swaggering insolence of the Senator from
New York Is of no concern to me.”
Mr. Conkling—“I do not need to have
heard the Senator in order to ascertain
that he is a person with whom I do not
chose to bandy epithets, here or elsewhere,
least of all here; and, therefore, I have
nothing to add to that which I have before
said.”
The colloquy here ended, and the sub
ject was dropped.
House.—Mr. House of Tennessee and
Mr. Crowly of New York were appointed
tellers on the part of the House. Bills
were Introduced expressing sympathy for
the Boers, (the Dutch in South Africa) in
their struggle against English, also ex
pressing sympathy for the Iilsh.

Wheeler, and Senators of the United States
entered the chamber. The Vice President
Wheeler took his seat on the right hand of
Speaker Randall and the Senators were ac
commodated with chairs in front of the
rows of desks. The Vice President called
the assembly to order and said: “The two
houses being assembled in pursuance of
the constitution that the votes may be
counted and declared for President and
Vice President, on the 4th day of March,
1881, it becomes my duty, under the consti

The Vice President opened the returns
and banded them to the tellers: Senators
Thurman and Hamlin and Representatives
House and Crowley. The certificates were
read by one of the tellers and recorded by
them and the votes announced by the Vice
President. The certificate of Georgia was
read showing that the vote was cast Dec.
8tb, 1880. The Vice President said: “It ap
pearing from the certificate the vote of the
State of Georgia was cast on a day other

votes by an act of Congress of the United
