The "St. John's** at Jacksonville.
A short telegraphic dispatch in our
columns has already announced tbe fact
that the new iron steamer “St John's,
of the New York, Savannah, Charleston
and Florida line, had arrived in Jack
sonville, where she bad been received
with every demonstration of enthusiasm
the firing of cannon, etc., etc. We see
by the Sun and Prtu that on Thursday
last hundreds of the business men and
citizens generally of Jacksonville, ac
companied by ladies in equally large
numbers, with several delegations from
the interior of the State, assembled at
the steamer’s pier for an excursion to
Orange Park, a distance of about fifteen
miles. Although the excursionists num
bered so many, yet there was an abund
ance of room for all, and the generally
fine appearance of the steamer was the
object of universal admiration.
On this occasion the Jacksonville cor
respondent of the Morning News, Dr.
W. H. Babcock, welcomed the invited
quests in a very happy speech. In hi>
address he alluded to the growing wants
if the increasing population of Florida,
ind the cultivated tastes of the army of
tourists and invalids which annually
visit the State, and which demanded a
vessel which will combine the requisites
f speed, capacity, security, elegance and
comfort, ail which qualifications this
steamer fully possessed.
Dr. Babcock then reviewed the history
of this line of steamers, and alluded to the
p:omptnes5 and punctuality which have
always characterized the conduct of ib
business affairs. He further paid a glow
ing and just tribute to Captain Vogel,
Purser Cavedo and other officers of the
-te&mer, and especially mentioned the
^ood services of Mr. Wm. B. Astor. in
lending material and .lubslantial aid to
the enterprise, a> follows: “I maybe
allowed here to express the hope that all
good and great enterprises like the pres
ent may always be upheld by the encour
aging hand of an Astor, and may run a
long course of usefulness and success
without encountering danger or being
subjected to dis-Astor.”
Colonel Lewis L. Fleming responded
to this address on behalf of the citizens
of Jacksonville in appropriate terms, and
he expressed the hope that this steamer,
which was “a thing of beauty and a joy
forever,” might me-t with success equal
to the most sanguine wishes of all present,
and that “favoring winds and waves may
always attend her in her cruises.”
Tiie entire fifteen miles of the excur
sion trip was mad in one hour, and the
occasion was eminently satisfactory in
every particular. We have given this
extended notice of the reception of the
St. John’s in Jacksonville to show the
favor with which the citizens of our
sister city and State regard her, and
the interest which they feel concerning
ihe future of the line. We cordially
unite with them in the wish expressed by
Colonel Fleming that its success may ex
ceed our most sanguine expectations,
and that it may mark a new era in the
prosperity of this section of our Sunny
South.
A Sharp Answer from Mr. Salton
stall to Minister Noyes.
Hon. Leverett .Saltonstall, of Boston
has published a reply to the letter re
cently published by Minister Noyes on
the Florida election case, in referring to
Mr. Noyes’ statement that he had not
-sent or received any disp itches to or
from Louisiana. Mr. Saltonstall says
“Would it not have been well for liiin
however, to have denied having seen or
neard the contents of such dispatches
Let Mr. Noyes do this, and iet him also
procure tbe publication of all the dis
patches in cipher to and from his friends
in Florida while he was apparently in
command there, and his indignant denial
will seem to be less a bit of special
pleading.” Mr. Saltonstall strongly
contrasts the affidavits presented by
ibe Democrats and those presented by
ihe Republicans, which latter were all in
the same handwriting, and were not even
claimed to be those of persons not able
to write, or to be signed by an attorney,
but were a promiscuous batch presented
by Noyes and admitted by the board.
In referring to the statement made by
Noyes that the name of Hayes would
live when Saltonstall would be forgotten,
the latter says: “I should greatlv prefer
being forgotten, or perhaps kindly re
membered by my numerous friends, than
be immortalized as the first President
who occupied that distinguished office
under tbe peculiar title by which the
prsent incumbent holds it” In refer
ring to the alleged cipher dis
patches he says that if they are
true, he deeply regrets the misguided ac
tion of those who at the last mo
ment thought it better to pay money to
the returning board than to see the great
decision of the country nullified by
fraud, believing that to be the only mode
of defeating the wicked attempt, and
adds: “Every intelligent and fair-
minded person now asks the question:
What must have been the inducement to
cause these men, in Mr. Noyes’ words,
thus frankly and honestly to do their
duty after offering to give the count to
Mr. Tilden for a certain sum? If a cer
tain kind of work is to be praised when
successful, but to be held up to scorn
when unsuccessful, then let the country
lavish its praise on Noyes and his friends,
some of whom boasted that they intended
to carry home the vote of Florida for
Hayes, and did so.”
Louisiana Recreants.—A Washing
ton special to the Baltimore Sun says:
"Charges affecting the official action of
several of the prominent Federal officers
in the State of Louisiana m connection
with the late elections have been made.
Among those mentioned as implicated
are the Collector of the Port of New
Orleans and the United States Marshal.
The charges with reference to these two
officials have to some extent taken
formal shape, and are understood in
substance to be that both their passive and
active aid was given to promote the suc
cess of the Democratic ticket, and in the
case of the Marshal that there was a
purposely lax administration of the
United States election laws. It is not
known that there is any provision of the
Revised Statutes which makes it a pun
ishable offense for Federal officers to
support Democratic candidates in the
Hume manner as other citizens may do,
and it is doubtless if even s.i much as
this can be proved against the two
officials named. ”
The Afghan War
As our readers have been well in
formed by our telegraphic dispatches,
the English Government has begun its
war upon Afghanistan in real earnest,
and has already captured one or two
strongholds from that country. The
following description of the country and
its people will therefore be of special in
terest at this time:
Afghanistan is an extensive country of
Asia, dividing British India from Persia.
It embraces 215,000 square miles, and
the population is estimated at five to
nine million. The country is mountain
ous, and consists of fertile lands where
tropical fruits and cereals abound, and
also desert plains. The Afghans are
Mahommedans. They constitute a brave,
hardy race. They follow agricultural
occupations and eschew commerce
They have good horses,camels and asses,
and plenty of sheep. Avenging blood
is a family duty; and the rights of bos
pitality are sacred. Internal dissen ions
and wars are common. Shere Ali is the
present Ameer or sovereign. The people
are warlike, an.l since J888, the English
have been at intervals at war with them
sometimes sustaining^ disastrous defeats
and again capturing their capital, Cabul
and other towns. The Afghans have
ften fought with and defeated the Per
sians.
The present war was brought about by
the refusal of Shere Ali to receive an
English embassy while giving a cordiai
reception to one from Russia, and no
doubt he was influenced in his action, and
persisted in accepting war with England
as a result thereof, under the impression
that Russia would form an offensive and
defensive alliance with him, and thus
another general war between two great
European powers would be brought
about. Indeed it was the possibility of
such an Afgho-Russian alliance which
gave much interest to the contest now
being waged.
J udging from the tone of our dispatches,
published a day or two ago, to the effect
that the Russian General Kaufman had
sent the Ameer a magnificent sword
accompanied by a message eulogizing
both the Czar aDd the Ameer together,
and pledging the sympathies of Russia to
the latter, it would seem as if there was
some likelihood of such an alliance. W
are inclined to believe, however, that the
aforementioned dispatch is either wholly
sensational or, at any rate, that when
comes to the point of bringing the Czar
into conflict with England it will be
diplomatically explained away. Russia
is hardly sufficiently recovered from the
late struggle with Turkey to enable her
to engage in such an extended and expen
sive war as a conflict with England would
prove. Besides this, we have seen it stated
that the Czar is determined to keep out of
any complications with Great Britain at
this time, and in our dispatches of this
morning's Issue we read that he has re
solved to hold aloof during the continu
ance of hostilities,and only interfere when
the question of adjusting the boundaries
of Afghanistan will have to be decided
after England has gained her expected
victory. When he fights her, he evi
dently wishes to be sure of his advant
ages, and future events bearing on thi.
point will be watched with much curi
osity.

Political Excitement in France.—
Political passions are at the highest
pitch, not only in political meetings in
France, but also and especially in th 1
Versailles Parliament. The Republican
majority in the Lower Chamber has in
validated all the elections of its ad versa
ries, and so much anger has been dis
played that both sides threaten each
other with summary punishment by
prison or shooting. MacMahon himself
has been called at the tribune “a per
jured man,” and Fourton, an ex-Minis-
ter, has declared in the Chamber thai
“if he had done his whole duty tbe
members of the Left, perhaps, would
not be there.” He would have sent
them to the execution platoon or to the
deadly sands and cannibals of New
Caledonia, where the Left itself ha
taken due care to send and to keep thou
sands of Parisians of the insurrection of
1871.
Among the important bills pending in
the Senate is Mr. Clarkson Potter's b.
from the House, transferring to the Court
of Claims the vast number of claim:
which burden the attention of Congress
every session. If this becomes a law it
will relieve Congressmen of quite one-
half of their labor, and thereby shorten
the session. The Court of Claims ha*
run quite to the end of its docket, and
could easily dispose of the new class of
claims which it is proposed to put before
it with justice to the claimant and to the
government. The Republicans, how
ever, are anxious to continue the cam
paign cry of “rebel claims” for 1880,
and intend, it is said, to oppose the pas
sage of 3Ir. Potter’s bill, although it has
nothing to do with rebel claims.
General Butler says in explanation of
his defeat: “I hope all are as well satis
fled at the result as I am. Cool reason
tog would have assured me that it was
next to impossible to win.” He claimed
that every Federal and State ofli
cer, as well as nearly all the city officials
with their dependents, nearly the whole
press, a large portion of the clergy,
especially those over churches highly or
namented with painted windows, all the
officers of corporations and agents of
manufactories, and the hired officers of
nearly all railroads were combined

The Beast need not have been so elabo
rate. He might have simply said once for
all, and been done with it, that every
decent man in the State was opposed to
him.
The Democratic Executive Committee
of South Carolina has issued an address
to the Democratic party of that State,
extending warm congratulations over
the victory achieved at the recent elec
tion, which is declared to have been “as
peaceable as triumphant,” and assur
ing the “thousands of colored men” who
voted the Democratic ticket of the cor
dial appreciation of their “good sense
and patriotic action in voting for the
perpetuation of home rule and good gov
ernment.”
Canada Pacific Railway.—An Ot
tawa, Ont., di.-patch says “it is reported
that the Canadian Government has au
thorized Finance Minister Tilley and Sir
A. T. Galt to press upon the notice of
the imperial authorities the importance
of aiding the Canada Pacific Railway
with a grant of £6,000,000 on the ground
that the work is one of imperial concern
It is understood that Lord Beaconsfield
is not indisposed to help the undertaking
under certain conditions, one being that
the amount contributed by Great Britain
shall be employed west of the Rocky
Mountains. It is said Parliament will
be called here for the dispatch of busi
ness about the first week of January.”
Responsibility of Hotel Keepers.
—The Supreme Court of Pennsylvania
has just decided that an inn keeper is
bound to pay for goods stolen in his
house from guests, unless stolen by a
servant or companion of the guest. The
court declared that it was the inn
keeper's duty to provide honest servants,
and to exercise an exact vigilance over
all peisons coming into his house as
guests or otherwise.
Since the coinage of the trade dollars

MR. HATE: ON THE ALLEGED SOUTHERN OUT-
• RAGES.
Washington, November 34.—In bis forth
coming message, the President will make
the alleged outrages and violations of law
in the South during the late Congressional
elections a prominent topic of comment.
These will be condemned as forci
bly depriving a large number
citizens in specified localities of rights con
ferrtd by both the National and the State
authority, thus preventing results expressive
of their will in the administration of public
affairs. The subject will be presented to
the consideration of Congress lor such ac
tion as the circumstances demand.
Owing to the decision of the United States
Supreme Court that the enforcement act
was unconstitutional, it not being in accord
ance with the fifteenth constitutional
amendm at, and the failure of the House In
the Forty-third Congress to pass the Senate
bill designed to meet the judgment of that
tribunal, there is no law to punish
a class of cases affecting colored men,
which the act was toieuded to reach. The
taw relative to the election of members of
Congress, however, affords a remedy for
tome of the reported wrongs, inflict
ing a fine of five hundred doliars
and imprisonment for one year on any
person found guilty of illegally prosecuting
or obstructing the free exercise of voting,
and a fine of five thousand dollars and im
prisonment for not more than ten years on
those engaged in conspiracy for the same
purpose.

“ol
of
Washington, November 34.—A striktoj
illustration of tbe extent mud excellence
the arguments for international mail service,
which have resulted from the Postal Union.
is given In an official publication received
by our Superintendent of Foreign Mails
from the Berne Central Bureau. A resi
dent of Chemnitz, Saxony, mailed at
that place at 7 p. m. on the 34th
May last, a postal card addressed to him
self, carrying a request to all j-o.-tmasters to
dispatch it successively and ithout loss of
time to Alexandria, Singa- ore. Yokohama,
San Francisco and New York, and thence
to Chemnitz, his object being to win a
wager that with the existing postal arrange
ments, the circuit of the world could thus
be made by postal matter within one
hundred and*twenty days. The request was
complied with and the card arrived in
Chemnitz from New York on the 117th day
after the date of tbe original mailing.
The Postmaster General of Germany has
caused this card to be photographed and
has transmitted a copy to the Berne Inter
national Bureau, with the remark that bad
it been posted one hour earlier that it would
have accomplished its journey in 96 days
instead of 117.
MUCH ADO OVER THE MARQUIS AND PRIN
CESS.
Halifax, N. 8., November 34.—There is

with tbe Duke of Edinburgh.
The city is decorated in a manner never
before attempted.
The self-adjusting beds placed in the Sar-
matian for the vice regal party were r
complete failure, and tbe old fashioned sid
berths had to be supplied. The Priucess
suffered one day on the pa>-age from
bronchial affection. Tbe Marquis walked
the deck of the steamer for several da;
and amused himself by fishit.g for gulls.
Ou the only Sunday spent at sea, divine ser
vice was held, the Marquis attending.

New York, November 34.—At a business
meeting of the Jewish congregation of
Sbaary Tiffala. on West Forty-fourth street,
this evening, to discuss their financial em-
bairassmetits. a letter was read from
Kabbi de Sola Mendez condemning
the proposed pekr system and advo
cating subscriptions ' on the spot.
He was willing to remit five hundred dollars
of Lis salary. The pew question was not dis
cussed, and after several subscriptions were
promised, a committee was appointed to
consider the propriety, as a compromise re
form, of introducing' an organ and a choir.
A HORRIBLE ACCIDENT.
Wilkesbarre, Pa., November 34.—On
Saturday, near Upper Lehigh, when Charles
Wenner, a brake-man, attempted to step
from one car to auother of a train on the
KcNOfpHk Railroad, the coupling broke,
and he fell beneath the wheels and had
both legs cut off. While endeavoring to
extricate himself, an arm became entangled
and was taken off. He was then dragged
considerable distance and fell from a
bridge thirty feet high. He was taken to
the Wilkesbarre hospital and died this
morning.
AND’IABST’8 SCHEME DISAPPOINTED.
Pesth, November 34.—The finance com
mittee of the Austrian Delegations, despite
the precautions of Count Andrasay, have
refused to discuss supplementary credit to
meet tbe expenses incurred in tbe occupa
tion of Turkish provinces, alleging that
Parliament had not yet sanctioned tbe oc
cupation. The probable consequence of
this refusal is that the session of tbe Delega
tions will be adjourned, aud the Keicbsrath
summoned to meet immediately.
REGICIDE FEARED IN ITALY.
Paris, November 34.—The correspondent
of Le Tempt, telegraphing from Rome before
the procession, states that soldiers and

SPECIAL NOTICE
For two year* post a notorious New Jer»
Bogus Manufacturer has been drawing Sou- i
• rn trade by offering a few style* of cheap u
'trumrou at low prices. The repurauon th.
gained has enabled him to sell his better grades
at actually higher prices than legitimate deal
er* /r t.
W e pledge ourselves unreservedly to furnish
czetter low priced instruments than his for the
same money, and to undersell him largely in
ail other styles. It shall never b~ truly said
* bile we are in tbe trade that Southern buyers
could not purchase from a Southern Hou-e as
cbe«p ss at the North. An unprejudiced com
parison of oar in-truinents and prices will
satisfy any one that money can actually be
saved by buying from us.
I>-n*t take it for granted that Southern Mus e
