preserve his own reputation that he is now
ihowiug to preserve other people’s, he would
be better off to-day. What is your opinion,

Dahlonega Signal: The excitement of the
week has been the reopening of the famous
Jones vein, on the Cbestatee, above, and
thought to be the same as the Boley Field
vein. Hon. W. H. McAfee, who has been
the agent for the property for years, at
the instance of the owners commenced
last week to reopen the shaft, and, with
three hands, cleaned it out in seven
days, and at the bottom struck the
vein, which proves as rich as when
first found, many years ago. Mr. Mc
Afee’s instructions were to find the
vein, and, when found, stop work immedi
ately and communicate the fact to W. B.
Sparks, of Macon. Last Tuesday he struck
it, and only took out two pansful of ore and
slate, and at once removed the windlass and
bucket. He brought the ore to town in a
handkerchief, and beat it in a band mortar,
which yielded 46 penny-weights and 0 grains
clean gold. Mr. MoAfee reports the rich
streak in the vein from three to six inches
wide, bearing every appearance of being a
regular and continuous vein. This dis
covery created as great a sensation as we
have seen for a long time.
Hawkinsville Dispatch: The Irwinton
Southerner has commenced on hawk stories.
Tom Cass, an industrious Irishman, living
in Wilkinson county, threw his fire-stick at
a hawk the other morning, and killed it just
as it had caught a young chicken. Dooly
county did better than that. One of her
citizens “caught a hawk on the wing,” af
ter it had flown off with a chicken. Bat some
body has told us of an incident that beats
Dooly as well as Wilkinson. The man
rushed out of his door, and seeing the hawk
flying off with a chicken, he seized a stick
of wood, and taking aim at the hawk as he
would have done with a gun, he said
“B-o-o-m!” and the hawk fell to the ground
as dead as if the man had actually fired
upon it with a load of shot. Let the
truth always prevail, and if Captain
Carnes, of the Southerner, cant’t beat
our hawk “tale,” he must “go foot.”
Augusta Constitutionalist: Out at the
Schuctzenplatz picnic the other day there
was a fearful little girl who had a fearful
way of Baying “fearful” to everything. She
lived in a fearful house, in a fearful street,
in a fearful village, which was a fearful dis
tance from every other fearful place. She
went to a fearful school, where' she had a
fearful teacher, who gave her fearful les
sons out ef fearful books. Every day she
was so fearful hungry that she ate a fearful
amount of food, so that she looked
fearful healthy. Her hat was tearful
small, and her feet were fearful large.
She went to a fearful church, and
her minister was a fearful preacher. When
she took a fearful walk she climbed fearful
hills, and when she got fearful tired she sat
down under a fearful tree to rest herself.
In summer she found the weather fearful
hot, and in winter fearful cold. When it
didn’t rain there was a fearful drought, and
when a fearful drought was over there was
a fearful rain. So that this fearful girl was
all the time in a fearful fix, and if she does
not get over saying “fearful” about every
thing she will, by and by, come to a fearful
end. And this fearful little girl lives in this
fearful city.
Thomasville Times: Are the merchants
showing any Interest in the immigration
movement, or have they as many customers
as they want? Gentlemen, you are no less
interested than the land owners. If the
town continues to grow and prosper, or even
maintain itself, oar rural population and
producing classes must have accessions.
This proposition is too plain to argne. It is
apparent to every observing business man
in the town. Then why this inertness,
this careless attitude in respect to a
subject in which you are vitally in
terested ? A proper and prompt
concert of action between town and county
on this subject, would give Thomasville and
Thomas county hundreds of new citizens
who would bring enterprise and thrift with
them ; who would infuse new life into our
sluggish habits ; who would be not only
consumers, but producers as well. Is this
a desirable end to be attained ? Do the
property holders in town want to hold on to
every square foot of ground which
they own, thereby keeping out new
comers ? If so, that is the way to
kill your town. No more effectual mode
could bo devised. The true policy is to put
property, in both town and county, down to
reasonable prices, and then hunt hnvers.
They can be found. But they are not going
to hunt the town out on the map, and then
come down here and beg you to let them
have a lot to put up a business house or &
residence upon. It is your businoss, no less
than your interest, to hunt them up and of
fer such inducements as will locato some of
the many thousands who are looking long
ingly southward for homes. Will you do it ?
An Embbyo Indian Outbade.—One of
the Long Valley Indians was shot at Lis
ton’s ranch, in the Meadow Valley Wash,
on Friday last, by Jim Hulse. Hulse
had a short time since lost a suit of
clothes, and seeing an Indian coming
past the ranoh with some things tied up
in blankets, thought that his clothes
might be in that bundle. He grappled
with the Indian and attempted to take
the bundle away from him, whereupon
the Indian showed fight and drew
his knife. On seeing that, a man
handed a pistol to Hulse, who
shot the Indian in the head. The Indian
immediately dropped his bundle and
ran off. The bundle wes opened; no
clothes were found, but there were eight
dollars and a half in coin. Shortly after
the chief of the Long Valley Indians de
manded the money, saying that if it was
not delivered the Indians intended to kill
Hulse. The money and blankets were
given up to him, after which he left, say
ing that he would do the best he could to
keep peace. The Indian shot was not
wounded dangerously, end it i» thought
he will recover. The settlers in the val
ley are, however, alarmed about the mat
ter, and all fear the running off of their
cattle.—rktche {Nee.) Record, May 14.
The carpet on which the Sultan daily
prays is kept in order by several persons,
whose joint salary is $2,500 a year. The
Sultan’s doctors and apothecaries cost
$40,000 a year. Whenever any one of the
Sultan’s wives falls ill, or rather unwell,
she is at once sent away from the Sultan’s
palace. His third wife fell suddenly and
most dangerously ill recently, and could
not in common decency be removed.
The Sultan constantly refused to see her
during all her illness. She died during
the night, and the instant he heard of her
death he quitted the palace and refused
to return until after her burial. When
the physicians are summoned to the pal
ace they enter the harem with the old
ceremonial. First comes a eunuch bran
dishing a very large sabre, then comes
the doctor, followed by two other eunuchs
armed to the teeth. Clergymen are never
admitted.
A Boy’s Bad Fbeak.—The Providence
Journal says : “On Saturday afternoon a
young man, a student, of heretofore
singularly quiet and exemplary demeanor,
in Manville, secured a ladder, placed it
against the South street Catholio school
house, and, running up the roof like a
cat, removed the cross. The offense was
so causeless and unaccountable that the
youth’s friends can regard it only as a
sudden freak of insanity. Indeed, the
feat could scarcely be accomplished safely
by a person in his right mind. The re
ligious outrage is naturally enough exas
perating to the Catholic people, and if it
shall prove to have been deliberately com
mitted from wanton wickedness severe
punishment should be accorded.
Bullock and Blodgett are urged to open
those tin boxes. We want them to do so,
if for nothing else, just to see how many
“prominent Democrats” in Savannah,
Augusta, Columbus and elsewhere out
side of Atlanta wiU crawl under feather
beds to avoid the Ughtnwg
Conttitutim. This is sweet talk, but the
sentence rings a trifle hollow. We join
in the wish. If there are any prominent

CONGRESSIONAL.
Washington, Jane 3.—The Senate has up
the bill to appoint a commission to treat
with the Sioux Indians for the relinquish
ment of that portion of their reservation
known as the Black Hills.
The Judiciary Committee are in full se
cret session to consider the report of the
sub-committee that Mr. Blaine is guilty of
contempt in not surrendering certain papers
taken from a witness who is under their pro
tection.
The Kerr Committee is quietly continuing
its investigation. There is a very slim at
tendance, and the interest has ceased.
The House is m Committee of the Whole
on the Indian appropriation bill.
In the Senate, petitions from New Or
leans, Louisville and Detroit favor the re
peal of the bankrupt acts.
Several propositions were introduced,
looking to a commission to the Sioux In
dians with a view of acquiring the Black
Hills. One proposition proposed the removal
of the Indians to the Indian territory.
Finally the bill passed—30 to 8. It author
izes the President to appoint a commission
of five persons to visit the Sioux Indians as
soon as possible with the view of the nego
tiation of a treaty or agreement with*them
for the cession to the United States of the
country known as the Black Hills, and in
the interests of peace it appropriates fifty
thousand dollars for the expenses of the
commission.
Mr. Bayard, of Delaware, introduced a
bill to extend the time in which a settlement
between the United States and certain rail
roads may be made under tne act of Feb
ruary 27, 1875. The bill also provides that
no balances found dne the railroad compa
nies shall be paid until the accounts are ad
judicated by the Executive departments in
accordance with existing law.
' The legislative appropriation bill was re
sumed. All amendments to the existing
salaries were agreed to. Referred to the
Judiciary Committee.
In the House, the disabilities of Roderick
S. Kennedy and Wm. R. Jones, of Texas,
were removed.
Indian appropriations were resumed.
Many amendments were rejected, among
them one by Seelye, of Massachusetts, for
bidding rations to white men living with
Indian women.
The Transfer Bureau was reached, and
the balance of the day was spent in arguing
the point of order that the section was not
in the interest of economy, and therefore
not admissable. No conclusion was reached.
The Judiciary Committee came to no
conclusion in reference to Blaine’s refusal
to surrender the papers. The sub-commit-
tee continued its examinations. Mr. Blaine
denied having auy connection with the
Union Pacific Railroad. Mr. Atkins and
Mr. Fisher were on the stand in tnis connec
tion, but nothing was elicited.
DECORATION OF CONFEDERATE GRAVES.
Washington, June 3.—To-day the South
ern Memorial Association of the District
decorated the graves of the 360 Confederate
soldiers who are buried at Arlington ceme
tery. The exercises were of a simple but
beautiful character. There were present
about 300 persons, the ladies predominating.
The majority of the party started from the
Board of Trade room in two large aud three
small omnibusses, and a number of pri
vate carriages. About noon the assemblage
was called to order on the portico of the
mansion by Dr. Garnett, who stated that
Rev. Dr. Pelzer would offer a prayer, at the
conclusion of which they would form a pro
cession and march to that portion of the
grounds, where they would decorate the
graves. Rev. A. W. Pelzer, of the Central
Presbyterian Church, offered a prayer, in
which he said they recognized that God had
raised some up and cast down others, and
that often hopes nearest the heart
had been cast down. They re
turned thanks for the blessed work
of the Sou of God, who had taught them
how to live aud h >w to die—had given a
hope of the blessed life beyond the grave
and a reunion in the world to come. Ho
asked all present, as they stood
to-day in the presence of the dead,
of those who had given up every
thing dear and their lives in defense
of what they believed to be right, that all
would be prepared for that reunion; that all
malice and uncharitableness might be for
gotten. He returned thanks for the blessings
during the one hundred years of our nation
al existence now closing, and prayed that
all breaches would be healed, and that our
rnler9 may have the fear of God before them,
and that the blessings of Heaven would be
bestowed upon us as a nation. The line
was then formed, aud on arriving in that
part of the cemetery where the Confederate
dead are buried, it broke into little groups
and each proceeded to deposit flowers on the
graves.
the fast train.
Omaha, June 3.—The fast train arrived at
Green river, 847 miles west of Omaha, at
6:20 a. m., and left at 6:27 a. m., six hours
and fifty minutes ahead of schedule time.
It reached Bridges’ station at 7:58 a. m.,
seven hours ana sixteen minutes ahead of
time.
Ogden, June 3.—The fast train arrived
here eight hours and twenty-seven minutes
ahead of schedule time. The average speed
over the Union Pacific Railroad was forty-
four miles per hour. On one division, be
tween Big Springs and Galesburg, the run
was made at the rate of from seventy to
seventy-two miles per hour.
Omaha, June 3.—The fast train arrived at
Evanston, 955 miles from Omaha, at 6:15 a.
m., eight hours and fiiteen minutes ahead of
time.
New York, June 3.—A dispatch received
here states that the fast train made twenty
stops in its passage from Omaha to OgdeD,
one thousand aud thirty-three miles, for
provisions and water; changed engines
eight times and stopped two hours and two
minutes on account ol hot boxes.
THE LONDON STOCK MARKET.
London, June 3.—Business on the Stock
Exchange during the past week was inter
fered with by the fortnightly settlement and
the Epsom races, but some* securities have
shown considerable fluctuations,arising from
various cases. The dethronement of the Sul
tan, Abdul Aziz, was followed by an impor
tant advance in Turkish issues, but they did
not close at their best point on the week,
though showing a rise of from 2 j to 5. Brazil
ian and Buenos Ayres have gained 1 to 24.
Egyptians have been flat at a decline of 4.
Argentines are 4 to 4$ lower. English gov-
f nments show an increased dullness, and
□glish railway shares are quiet. American
securities are firmer. Business to-day was
very restricted.
THE BERLIN MEMORANDUM.
London, June 3.—The Paris correspond
ent of the Times says it seems now beyond
doubt that Russia, in accord with the other
powers, has agreed to postpone the presen
tation of the Berlin memorandum to the
Porte. _ .... ,
The Tirnety in its second edition, pub
lishes a special dispatch, dated Berlin,
Jane 3, saying : “ It appears that the pow
ers have suspended action on the Berlin
memorandum for a few days, in order to
allow the new Turkish Government to give
unmistakable indication of their policy and
their power of maintaining themselves.”
REPUDIATING SPENCER.
Montgomery, June 3.—Marengo county,
one of the largest negro counties in the
State to-day repudiated Spencer and the
convention of May 24th, and endorsed the
anti-Spencer ticket. W. H. Thweatt, a
prominent colorediiepublican and alternate
elector for the SdRe on the Spencer ticket,
led the movement.
THE PHILADELPHIA RAOE.
New York, June 3.—A cable dispatch
says the members of the First Trinity Boat
Clnb have decided to send the following
four to Philadelphia: J. Jameson, bow; J. H.
Mann, second; B. Close, third; J. S. Penrose,
stroke. The crew will leave England early
in July, and commence training on their ar
rival.
A CANARD.
Chicago, June 3.—A dispatch received at
Sheridan’s headquarters indicate that the
reported massacre of a party by the Indians
is a canard. Capt. Egan saw the party May
21st twenty-eight miles from Custer. They
numbered twenty-nine.
JEEMS BLAINE.
Washington, June 3.—In the Blaine in
vestigation, Mr. Fisher testified that he had
sent Blaine the $25,000 for the interest in the
North Pacific Road, and afterwards received
the money back* with interest. Did not
*iy as he never received the stock.
THE BA STERN QUESTION.
London, June 3.—The Times's Berlin dis
patch declares that the action of Ronmania
and Servia in relation to their contemplated
declaration of independence, will doubtless
be governed by Prussia, who seems willing
to recognize Murad upon condition that he
abandon the idea of waging war against
Servia and Montenegro. Murad’s party is
bent upon such a war, and it is expected
that the new 8ultan will give no binding
promise.
It is reported three British men-of-war
are cruising off the Dalmatian coast, to pre
vent the landing of arms for the insurgents.
In the meantime warlike preparations con
tinue. Servia has just announced her ad
hesion to the Geneva Convention, relative
to the treatment of the wounded.
The official gazette of Montenegro delares
that a fresh armistice is impossible, and
says the insurrection will now continue in
good earnest.
COUNTERFEITS.
New York, June 3.—The following well
executed counterfeits are in circulation:
Twenties on the National Bank of Utica,
N. Y.; tens on the Farmers’ and Mannfac-
turers’Bank of Poughkeepsie; fives on the
First National Bank of Chicago; fives on the

oi Chicago; fives on the First National Bank
of Louisville, Ky. Two men and women
were arrested yesterday for passing some of
these bills. Other counterfeits were found
in their possession.
THE EASTON POISONING CASE.
Easton, Pa., June 3.—Another is dead.
There was enough arsenic in the coffee to
poison one hundred people. Jacob Young
was murdered and robbed in tho same vi
cinity a few weeks ago. There is great un-
asiness in the neighborhood.
This_evening the coroner’s jury returned
a verdict that Martin J. L&Rose, Mary Ann
LaRose and Morris Schug died from poison
administered by Allen C. LaRose. The
person accused is a school teacher aud a
son of Martin and Mary Ann LaRose, both
of whom are among the victims. Since his
arrest he has confessed that he gave the
poison to his father and mother and Mr.
Schug, ani that his sole objeot was to ob
tain possession of their money.
SUPPOSED MURDER AND SUICIDE.
St. Louis, June 3.—A man, woman and
child were found in the woods near Bellville,
Ill. From the position of the bodies, it is
supposed the man shot the woman aud
child aud then himself.

Editor Morning News:
As your correspondents from different
portions of our State are discussing the
merits of the different inviduals spoken
of as Democratic candidate for Governor
this fall, and feeling deeply interested in
the coming man (whoever he may be), I
ask space in your columns for the pur
pose of expressmg the desires of this
section in regard to the Gubernatorial
candidate.
Geo. F. Drew, of Ellaville, is decidedly
the choice of this section, and, as your
correspondent believes, of a large majority
of the Democratic aud Conservative
voters of the State, but it is fearod by his
friends that his nomination may be de
feated by the machinations of certain
rings or cliques that are believed to exist
in certain portions of the State, which
will advance the interests of a pet, con
trary to the interests and wishes of the
party-. One of these rings, and the most
prominent, is believed to exist in the city
of Jacksonville, and has at this time for
its pet Col. J. J. Daniels. Now. Col.
Daniels is a noble gentleman of de
cided ability, and, if elected, would
make a good Governor, and your
correspondent could and would vote for
him with a free, good will; but, the
question arises, could he bring to his aid
the entire Democratic and Conservative
vote, without which he could not be
elected ? We think not. One reason is,
it is believed that Col. Daniels will be
brought out by this ring, which is be
lieved to exist in his city; and it is un
fortunate for the aspirations of Col.
Daniels that the actions of his county
convention go far to strengthen this
belief, for after a somewhat stormy dis
cussion, it seems that some of the promi
nent members of the supposed clique
were elected delegates and alternates, but
for fear they could not wield sufficient
influence to carry out the designs of
Jacksonville, another delegation was ap
pointed, ostensibly to advise and confer
with the regular delegation. Now, this
action on the part of the convention was
very unwise, as the people understand
that this last delegation goes to Quincy
for the purpose of lobbying for Col.
Daniels, and was selected through the
influence of this ring, and the peo
ple are tired of rings and their influence.
The mere supposition of the existence
of a ring in Tallahassee has killed a great
many of our prominent Democrats and
defeated the Democratic party in this
State in every election since reconstruc
tion, and such will be the fate of the can
didate and the party if another ring can
didate is brought out by the convention
on next Wednesday.
Another objection to Col. Daniels is
this: Unfortunately for him he was gen
eral conscript officer, aud had charge of
the Camp of Instruction at Madison dur
ing the war. Now there are a great many
men still alive, and voters in this State,
who were assigned to different commands
and posts of duty, during the war, by
CoL Daniels, and all suffered more or less
hardships. Some were wounded, some
captured and carried off to Northern pris
ons, and were nearly starved and frozen
to death ; others deserted and went over
to the enemy, and there suffered all the
pangs of a guilty conscience and great
distress on account of forced absence from
family and friends. Now, there are a
great many of these men in the State,
and they are voters, and will vote with us
if we nominate and run the right man;
but they lay all their war troubles on the
shoulders of Col. Daniels, because in the
course of his duty he assigned
them to the place where these
evils fell upon them. I know
whereof I speak. There is in this county,
that can be counted eighteen voters, and
the most of them substantial Democrats,
that will not vote for Colonel Daniels if
he is nominated, on account of his ac
tions during the war, and what is true in
this county you will find in every county
that was in the jurisdiction of the oamp
of instruction at Madison during the war.
We cannot hazard these votes, and 1
do hope and trust that the convention at
Quincy will take these things into con
sideration and select a good man for onr
candidate—one that can carry every avail
able vote—and we can and will elect him.
Gentlemen of the Qumoy Convention,
do not give us an “old party hack" nor
an old “war horse,” with a record too
heavy for the young Democracy to carry,
and you may rest assured that success
will crown our efforts in the coming cam
paign.
Give us Geo. F. Drew for Governor
and Senator Hendry for Lieutenant Gov
ernor, and fill up the balanc^of the ticket
with their like, and we warrant that the
Democracy of Florida will roll np a hand
some majority next November.
Vox POPULL
Madison, June 2, 1876.
THE TWO CONVENTIONS.
Yesterday, though not altogether as
prolific in disturbances, was yet extraor-
ordinarily portentous and animated.
The delegates of twenty-six counties, in
cluding those who were excluded by the
action of the State Central Committee,
organized a convention independently in
the evening, and manifesting an
irrepressible enthusiasm, selected Jo-
riah T. Walls as President, and
T. C. Glover as Secretary. The
usual preliminaries were proceeded into.
Walls addressed the audience, and said
that Stearns’s followers had insulted the
people; that the convention had been
called to nominate candidates for Gov
ernor, Lieutenant Governor, Presi
dential electors, etc. The speaker was
vigorously applauded, and then, in an
unquiet manner, Simon li. Conover
was declared the nominee of the lie-
publican party for Governor and Josiah
A. Lee, of Sumter county, for Lieuten
ant Governor, by acclamation. The rest
of the ticket was as has been already
telegraphed. A new State Executive
Committee was created, composed of
Purman, Hiram Potter, Walls, and others
i of the same sort. A committee of three
was appointed to announce the action of
the convention to Conover and Lee, and
Simon acknowledged himself flattered,
and swore in accents unquestionably un
compromising that no two or three plot
ters oould stuff Stearns into him. He
expressed himself as being confident of
election, and intimated that if the con
vention now in session at the court house
would repudiate the outrageous conduct
of the Central Committee in endeavoring
to pack things for that villain Steams, he
(Conover) and every one of the body who
had any desire for harmony would com
bine with them. This is to be interpreted in
effect that the other convention shall ac
cept Conover as the candidate or there
will be no coalition. Walls was proposed
as Lieutenant Governor, but declined,
assuring his hearers that he believed he
could again luxuriate in the House
of Representatives. Next, Purman,
the niggars’ darling, orated and
presented a resolution endorsing Grant as
a pure, undefiled statesman, and claim
ing him as the choice of the Republican
party of Florida for a third term. The
resolution was unanimously adopted.
Purmau next read a letter from Frederic
Douglass, commending Conover and de
precating Steams to the colored voters.
Purman asserted that Steams was a false
hearted knave and a disgrace to Republi
canism, and soft-soldered the niggers be
fore him admirably. He lauded Conover
to the skies, and dubbed him “Gov
ernor Conover.” After some further
speaking the convention adjourned. THE
STEARNS WING met at the court house
in convention and proceeded to install a
President, in the person of Dennis Ea
gan. The uncontested delegations favor-
ing Conover were in their seats protest
ing that they would make one herculean
effort to inculcate a respect for decency,
and in the event of a failure, withdraw
from the deliberations. On a proposi
tion for a committee on credentials, to be
composed of fifteen men, whose seats
were not in dispute, the Stearns-
ites defeated the motion, the con
tested delegates votingwith the majority.
John R. Scott stigmatized the brazen
impudence of L. G. Dennis and the
illegal delegates as an outrage, and said
that if Wallf had been permitttd to de
cide his case at Washington for himself
General Finley would not now occupy
the colored gentleman’s seat. Bisbee
spoke also and made bis usual speech.
A motion to appoint a committee of
eleven without restriction as to‘counties
was finally carried, and during the debate
Meacham accused Purman or Conover or
some other person of having attempted
to buy his influence as a member of the
State Central Committee for five thousand
dollars, and proclaimed his ability to sub
stantiate the charge.
VERT DISORDERLY.
The scene among the Stearnsites in
this convention overshadows confusion
itself. Eagan is sometimes compelled to
knock upon the desk with a five-pound
weight for a half hour at a time. The
din is deafening, and the compliments
indulged in are by no means mentiouable
to ears polite. At times it seems as if
pandemonium was in revolt, and tho ef
fluvia and noise are simply and graphi
cally unbearable. A dozen niggers often
try to speak at the same moment, amidst
the most uproarious shouting and yelling
that was ever heard.
COMMITTEE ON CREDENTIALS.
The committee made their report this
morning, and in effect sustain the action
of the State Central Committee in ex
cluding the Walls and other delegations
inimical to Stearns’s candidacy. A ques
tion was being argued on admitting the
Walls delegation to a half vote on the
floor. Dennis, of Alachua, and
various Stearnsites spoke in opposi
tion to it, while various adherents
of Conover supported it. The bickering
and recrimination is unceasing and fre
quently coarse. The Radical orators
have exploded more balderdash and ri-
baldry to-day than is conceivable with
out listening to it. Bill Hicks, as an al
ternate from Dade, is maintaining Stearns
by his usual rhodomontade on every con
venient occasion and opposes the
admission of Walls’s crowd. John
W. . Butler, of Santa Rosa, has yet
no material respite from his chronic
drunk, and bounces up at every oppor
tunity to state a point of order, which is
composed of an inquiry for Purman and
Potter. Dennis Eagan has injured his
jaws, past recovery it is conjectured,
bawling out, “The gentleman ‘raises’ to
a point of order,” and has the mortifica
tion to discover in many instances that
the erroneous pointer is only seeking a
pretext to get out of order himself in
a blundering way. Butler reiterates with
disgusting pertinacity the banter, “ We
don’t intend to let anyone insist on any
thing in this convention.” “If anyone
wants to go, let ’em go.” There is a
whole battalion of impromptu orators,
who consume time in saying nothing and
producing no effect but one of intensified
drowsiness. A motion was introduced to
allow Walls twenty minutes in which
to expand his sentiments concerning
some things that lie too deep for human
eyes, and the bombast that the intima
tion elicited is equivalent to a perfect
inundation of monotony. Some spoke
against, according the ex-Congressman
this exceptional privilege, and Eagan
ruled adversely. Hence Walls remains
unheard.
GROWLING AND GRUNTING.
The changes in the aspect of the situa
tion are sudden and kaleidoscopic, and a
judgment formed one instant may be
modified by developments constantly oc
curring and unforeseen. Enough is certain,
however, to state with tolerable precision
that the convention now in session will
adhere to Steams at all hazards, and that
the ticket placed in nomination yesterday
will not be withdrawn. The convention
is the noisiest assembly of mongrels ever
witnessed in any country, and the hand
of the acting Governor of Florida is as
plainly to be discerned controlling the
strategic movements there as it is in sev
eral newspapers not beyond the confines
of the State.

LETTER FROM WASHINGTON.
The Charaea Agaiaat Speaker Kerr—A
Foul Conspiracy lo Uuin an Ilonest Man
—Radical Thieves at the Bottom of It—
What the Democrats Propose to Do.
[Special Correspondence of the Morning News.]
Now we know all about it. The Presi
dent’s withdrawal of the nomination of
Wirt Sykes as Consul to Florence was
owing to Olive Logan’s carelessness in
misstating the number of flounoes on
Mrs. Grant’s last spring ailk.—Boston
Post.
Washington, May 31, 1876.
When a Radical wrong-doer U found
out all the power and influence of that
party is exerted to shield him from pun
ishment, even though innocent men be
ruined in the attempt. Witness the safe
burglary conspiracy, originating in the
White House, by which it was attempted
to send to the penitentiary a citizen
whose sole offence was resisting the
thieving of the Washington ring. Now
it is attempted to break the fall of Secre
tary Belknap, and perhaps avert his im
peachment, by bringing
CHARGES AGAINST MR. SPEAKER KERR,
which no respectable Republican puts
the slightest faith in. In the estimation
of the fair and honorable men of both par
ties this is simply a resort to the tactics of
the safe burglary conspiracy, and this
will doubtless be made clear in good
time. Mean while, Mr. Kerr’s word is re
garded as a sufficient offset to the story-
told by the ex-doorkeeper and confessed
adventurer, and to the tale told by the
man who was dismissed from the army
in disgrace. But, if contrary to general
belief, Mr. Kerr shall be proved, on un
impeachable testimony, to have received
a bribe, he will have to suffer the conse -
quences, despite his feeble physical con
dition. The Democratic House will mete
out the same punishment to the guilty
members of its own party as to those of
the opposition. This is the line of policy
it has adopted, and it is in marked con
trast to that which was pursued by its
Radical predecessors. The Investigations
held under Republican auspices were con
ducted with a view to protecting rascality
aud whitewashing delinquents. The Spen
cer investigation, recently reported upon
by a committee of the Republican Sen
ate, is
A CASE IN POINT.
Had this investigation been conducted
at the other end of the capitol, involv
ing a Democratic member or official, he
would most certainly have been expelled.
Such officials of the House as have
been found unworthy of their positions
have been summarily dismissed, and
the first hint of wrong-doing on
their part has led to speedy investiga
tion. Human nature is the same, and
it would be absurd to claim that the
Democratic party holds a monopoly of
all the honesty and purity in the country.
But, unfortunately for the Republican
party, it appears that all, or nearly all,
of its officenolders are rogues, who nat
urally protect each other, while the
honest element of the party is left out iu
the cold, aud has no voice in affairs.
The predominating element of the Demo
cratic party on the other hand means
reform, and is striving to secure an
honest administration. It has no use for
the white-wash so lavishly bestowed
by its opponents. While the contest for
the Cincinnati nomination lies between
Conkling, the representative of Grantism,
Morton, the embodiment of sectional
hatred and a violated Constitution, and
Blame, the exemplar of those who roll
up immense fortunes in the public service,
THE DELEGATES TO ST. LOUIS
are for the most part unpledged, and
nil are committed to the principle that
only those who are absolutely incorrupti
ble and free from suspicion shall be
nominated. Bristow, the only honest
man at all prominent in connection with
the Republican nomination, has no support
from theleadersof that party, and owes his
strength solely to the independent vote..
He is, indeed, so far without the pale of
strict Republicanism as to be considered
a third party candidate, and his nomina
tion at Cincinnati w’ould indicate as great
a deviation from the traditions of his
party as the indorsement of Greeley by
the Baltimore Convention. But there is
little or no prospect that he will receive
the nomination. The Bepublican leaders
are too strong for him aud his indepen
dent followers, and they will assuredly
stlect a strict party man. This, of
course, strengthens
THE CHANCES OP THE DEMOCRACY,
who are moved by higher and more
patriotic principles. They will select
no hack politician, but a man in whom
the whole people have confidence, and
whose election will ensure good govern
ment, and honesty and purity in the civil
service. The placing of such a man in
the White House will raise the country
from its present slough of despond,
revive trade and commerce and repair
our shattered industries. The election of
either Conkling, Morton or Blaine would
simply perpetuate GraDtism. This is
how the two parties stand to-day. These
are the issues before the country. Nor
can the people be blinded by the mud-
flinging, or misled by the wicked con
spiracies of the desperate men of the
Radical party, who are clinging to straws
with the desperation of drowning men.
The Democratic majority of the House
of Representatives, undeterred by the
slanders of a corrupt press, or the obsta
cles placed in its way by the bad men iu
power, will go on meting out punishment
to the guilty, be their party affiliations
what tney may, and will interpose all
their strength against further attempts at
PLUNDERING THE PUBLIC TREASURY.
One high official has been convicted of
dishonest practices and stricken down,
and before the session is over there is
reason to believe that others will share a
similar fate. It has already been shown
that the Navy Department is honey
combed with fraud, and the same is true
of the Government Printing Office. Such
is Grantism, a word that will pass into
history as synonymous of fraud aud cor
ruption. Carlos.
A Correction.
Quincy, Fla., June 2, 1876.
Editor Mominq Neies :
I noticed in your paper of June 1st, in
a letter of Adrianus, the statement that I
received from F. A. Dockrav, cash,
$212 50. I beg to say that the state
ment is incorrect. Mr. Dockray never
paid me one cent of money on account
of Abijah Gilbert in his life. The
$212 50 was a convention bond that I
placed in Mr. Dockray’s hands to dis
pose of for me, and was my own prop
erty. J. E. A. Davidson.
Great Expectations.—The Montgom
ery Advertiser does not agree with the
Chronicle and Sentinel that “the Southern
delegates to St. Louis should combine to
defeat the nomination of Governor Til-
den ;” and ia also opposed to “any con
certed action of Southern delegates in any
direction.” The Advertiser evidently
thinks that Southern men should go to
St. Louis to do whatever the Northern
delegates may command them to do.
This seems a little hard, in view of the
fact that a large majority oj the Northern
delegates come from States that are certain
to go Radical next November, while the
Southern States will cast one hundred
and thirty-eight votes for the Democratic
nominee, within forty-seven votes of the
number necessary to an eleotion. North
ern Democrats are puzzling their brains
and quarreling over the question where
these forty-seven votes must come from,
while representatives of one hundred and
thirty-eight votes are told they most ren
der implicit obedience to those, an over
whelming majority of whom can render
no assistance whatever in the contest.—

THE HARD TIMES IN BEAUFORT,
SOUTH CAROLINA.
A Public .tlcctlnc at Varnvlllc—White
Citizens in a Starving Condition—Com
mitteea Appointed lo Ask Aid and Relief.
Vabnville, June 1.—Pursuant to a
public call, the citizens of Beaufort coun
ty met at Varnville on the 30th day of
May, to take into consideration the ex
treme destitution of the people, and to
devise some plan whereby an alleviation
of the sufferings may be obtained. Henry
Goethe, Esq., was requested to act as
chairman and J. O. H. Sanders as secre
tary.
The Hon. James E. DeLoach then ad
dressed the meeting, representing in a
feelingly sad manner the dreadful results
that may be occasioned by the continu
ance of the present state of the people,
and introduced the following preamble
and resolution:
Whereas, It has come to our knowl
edge that many good, honest and worthy
citizens of our county are in a starving
condition, in consequence of the failure
of crops the last year caused from
drought. Therefore, be it
Resolved, That a committee of five be
appointed who shall be stated a commit
tee on relief, whose duty shall be to ask
aid from all who have charity for their
fellow man and are willing and able to
contribute something to the relief of the
destitute who are without bread, means
or credit, and that the said committee
make immediate application where they
think best and by the most practicable
means to accomplish this end.
The preamble and resolution were
unanimously adopted, and the following
gentlemen appointed the committee on
relief: Col. A. McB. Peeples, Rev. II. C.
Smart, Hon. James E. DeLoach, George
H. Hoover, Esq., and the Rev. Mr.
Stevens.
Sub-committees were then appointed,
consisting of one from each township,
whose duty shall be to receive all appli
cations for relief in their respective
townships and transmit them to the com
mittee on relief.
The following gentlemen compose these
committeef: Capt. W. J. Gooding, for
Peeples’ township; James W. Moore,
Esq., for Coosawhatohie; Rev. W. H.
Shuman, for Goethe; John Lawton, Esq.,
for Lawton; Dr. Isaac Gregory, for Po-
cotaligo; Henry Fuller, Esq., for Sheldon;
Wm. Eliicot, Esq., for Beaufort and the
islands; Frank W. Hardy, Esq., for
Yemassee; John H. Roberts, Esq., for
Roberts, and E. W. Sanders, Esq., for
Bluffton.
The meeting seemed to have been fully
and seriously impressed with the vitul
importance of the subject under con
sideration, and we trust that aur efforts
may be overruled by the mercy and good
ness of Almighty God.
The Hon. James E. DeLoach then
moved that the proceedings be sent to
the Port Royal Standard and Commercial,
the Charleston News and Courier, the
Savannah News, and the Augusta Consti
tutionalist and tho Columbia Union
Herald, and that others who are favorable
to the cause be also requested to copy.
The meeting then adjourned.

T lie Situation in Turkey.
So far as the opinion of the English
press can be gathered, a very general
feeling prevails that the accession of tin-
new Sultan offers an easier solution of the
Easteru question than anv which has yet
appeared. It has brought the ablest ad
ministrator in Turkey to the head of
Turkish aff‘* irs for one thing, and all the
attendant circumstances point to a re
newal by England of that active inter
ference in the East which has kept the
empire on its legs so long. In spite of
the assurances on both sides that an
armistice is impossible in Herzegovina,
it is tolerably plain that one has prac
tically existed for most of the time
since the arrival of Baron Rodich
at Ragusa, and like most tempora
ry cessations of hostilities, the paute is
likely to give both parties in the struggle
an opportunity to come to an agreement,
to which the Sublime Porte can more
easily agree under a new prince than
under the old. The only new element in
fhe problem which the abdication of Ab
dul Aziz has done so much to make sim
pler, is the rumored confederation be
tween the scattered members of the Gretk
Church, for this is exactly what an alli
ance between Servia, Roumania, Mon
tenegro and Greece, with risings in Crete
and Thessaly, amounts to. Such a scheme
may be set down upon its face as chi
merical. The scheme has been tried be
fore and signally failed. Misgoverned
Greece has counted, and is likely for some
time to come to count, as the merest ci
pher in the politics of the Levant. Avery
small squadron indeed was all that was
needed at the Piraus during the Crimean
war to keep the little kingdom quiet; aud
anxious as King Otho’s government was
to aid the Thessalian rebellion in 1861,
and the government of King George to
aid the Cretan insurrection four years
later, Greece was powerless to act in
either case for the good of her co
religionists. In any such conflict she
practically stands alone. Russia has the
best possible reasons for objecting to a
second Byzantine Empire; and no other
European power has given Greece the
slightest encouragement since the
blunder of Navarino Bay began the
work which the harbor of Sinope
saw finished. Turkey has more to fear
from the Danubian Principalities, most
of all from the ability of General Tcher-
nayeff, who has wisely selected John the
Baptist’s Day, a day famous in Servian
annals, for the crossing of the Drina.
But even beyond the Balkan, Turkey will
have a vastly easier task in meeting an
organized and inferior army than she has
encountered in her warfare with the
guerrillas of Herzegovina. There such
changes as have just taken place are not
favorable to the Turkish cause. If the
insurgents have succeeded in occupying
the Duga Pass they have gained a strong
position between Nicsic and the outlying
fortress, Presioko, which Moukhtar Pasha
recently relieved at a moBt serious expense
of men and material.—New York World.
