I Farewell Ahdrhm.
You make Nothing by it.
We regret to sec some of the most
fiery Democratic editors are indulging
in the most unscrupulous denunciation
of Governor Bi llo< k aud Congress.
Os what use is it to thus stir up the
passions of the people ? Certainly,
forcible resistance to any act of Con
gress is not seriously contemplated.
Why this agitation ? Why this abuse
I If it served to defeat any action by
Congress, then such a course would be
I more defensible. But these editors
know that such anathemas against
Southern Republicans creates a sym.
pathy lor the victims of Democratic
I vengeance. Bullying has long since
’ ceased to have its ante-bellum effect on
, Ithe American people. However ob
jectionable any legislation may be to
I Democrats, it would entirely be the
1 better part of wisdom to wait to see
1 what that legislation is before going
‘ I into hysterics over it. VV ait until you
arrive at the bridge before you cross
over it. For onr part, we have not
believed, and do not believe, that our
affairs will be changed, except for the
better. There is no use of blowing,
and denouncing, and threatening.
Such a course amounts to nothing.
Miscellaneous Editorial Items.
When the Government taxon whis
key was $2.00 per gallon, the highest
amount of revenue collected any one
year was $29,000,000. Since the re
duction to sixty cents per gallon the
IMstStlTfl fl I’l . f-*st
of Congress sell their franks to busi
ness men. This is incredible; but
there is no question that the privilege
is greatly abused by membersfranking
letters and printed matter tin- outside
parties. This is not morally so mon
strous as selling them; but it is never
theless a palpable violation of law.
Gen. Joseph E. Johnston informs
the editor of the Columbus Sun that
he will make Georgia his future home.
The Columbus tSken gives Captain
J. E. Bhyant cold comfort in discuss
ing the latter’s recent political tergiv
ersations.
The Result of the Year's Work.
'Die Macon Jieetrnal <C‘ Messenger
is satisfied with the result of the
present year’s work in the South, and
says:
What are those results 'i Briefly stated,
we may say that enough grain has been pro
duced in the South the present year to teed
its whole population, either in the shape of
"breadstuffs or an equivalent of beet and
bacon. Beyond this, it is estimated that
there will be a surplus for sale, consisting of,
say, two million and a half bales of cotton,
one hundred and twenty thousand hogsheads
of sugar, together with liberal crops of to
baccu, rice, and considerable quantities of
other marketable products, all of which, it is
supposed, wifi amount to the aggregate
'mue of three hundred million dollars.
Pretty good, that. And we believe, too,
tliat the proceeds of this snug sum total will,
more-than that of any other planting season,
go to build up an active and profitable home
trade, to promoting every safe home enter
prise, and garnering up all the constituents
that give elegance nnd comfort to homo life.
We believe that the country, in its natural
and artificial features, will have more to show
for it than in any former year of its history,
and that our people, in their homes, their
habits, and their business pursuits, will all
reflect the blessings ami advantages shining
forth from the new era upon which we seem
about to enter. So mote it be!
Don t Listen.—The Macon Tclc
(jrnph takes us to task for advising
the people not to notice the “ wrang
ling.*” of politicians, and reminds us of
- the many disastrous consequences
which have resulted from political
’ “wrangling.” We admit all this;
, but Would remind our cotemporary if,
; the people had not listened to and
» encouraged (his “ wrangling.” If the
people will stand aloof now and let
' the “ wranglers” alone, the South and
the country will he better oil; Don't
listen to them.

Drawing for Seats in the House.
The third < I rawing for cuts in the
House of Hepiesentativcs, at Wnsli
n.gUm, during the Fortieth CoOgrtas,
took place on Wednesday last, with
the following result, as «e learn from
the X'itional Ropvblirau :
The first name drawn war, Unit of Mr.
Biwi’iwcll. of Illinois, who took a scat to
ward the nsu ot the main section on
publican side, n seat he luei oa npled all of
!he flilrtv-nin’h Congress, but fromi which
be was ousted at the first drawing tor the
Fortieth Congress.

vells’old scat; but a moment Inter Mr. <>. .1.
DickeCs n.uiie drawn, and Mr. Sypher
verv iiolittly vacated the seal, and it is very
piom-rly occupirsl by Mr. Htevens' successor.
The name of Mr. Mullens, of Tennessee, was
one of the earliest drawn, and ns soon as his
name was announced he made a t egular hop.
skip and jump down the main aisle to his old
scat, and ns he neared it, cut the most singu
lar antics, leaping in the nir and jumping
nbout just as a child would v ho had become
possessed unexpectedly of some coveted arti
cle Hi.s antics excited the greatest I.mgbtci
in all parts of the House, and it was some
minutes before the Speaker could restort
order sufficiently for the ( lerk to proceed.
Messis. Woodward, of Pennsylvania, and
Eggleston, of < thio, were next drawn succes
sivelv and obtained more eligible swits than
thev’hnd previously occupied. Mr. Boyden,
of North Carolina, Who has been occupying
a corner on the Democratic side, secured tb<
seat of Mr. I’ruvn, one of th.: Uwt on UR
main aisle, and .Mr. Pruyu's name ’’<>■ b- uig
call.sl until the last, he was forced to lake .
rear txrsiti.m. Mr. Higby, of Uah orma, lei
an out-of-the way seat on the femoerati
side for a prominent chair on the Kepubltcai
side. Mr.* W. B. Washburn, of Massnchu
setts took possession of tire seal so iong
occupied by Mr. E. B. Washburn, but when
the latter's name was called, Ins scat was
returned Io him, and his namesake look a
scat in the mnge behind him Mr. IT. D.
Washburn, of Indiana, first took .Mi. Scho
field’s seat, but subsequently returned it to
him and took a front chair in the same sec
tion beside bis colleague, Mr. Ortle
Air Shanks transferred his |s>sition from a
corner on the Republican side to a more
eligible position on the same side. Mr. G-ai
fieldand Mr. Allison, respectively obtained
the seats occupied by Mr. Schenck and Mi.
Blaine forcing the Chairman ot the w ays
and Means Committee and the Maine mem
ber further to the rear. Messrs. Van 1 rump,
of Ohio, and Phelps, Stone and rbomaSjOi
Maryland, all secured their old scats. .Hr.
McCulloch, of Maryland, was not present,
and his seat was taken by Air. Wilson, ot
Pennsylvania. Mr. Cullom got 1 ngcrsoll s
seal and the jovial chairman of the District
Committee was compelled to take to a corner
outside of the direct range oK the bpeaker s
eye. Ak. Ela, of New Hampshire, came
from the rear tow more eligible scat at the
front Air. Dixon, of Rhode Island, moved
from Um Democratic to the Republican side.
Mr Barnes, of New A’ork. ousted Air. Ar
cher of Maryland, but the latter was called
in time to enable him to get a .first-rate seat a
little further to the front. Air. Cobb, of
Wisconsin, was driven from the centre ot
the Republican section to a seat directly on
the left of the Speaker. Air. Griswold, of
New York, left the Democratic side and took
Mr. Farnsworth’s old scat. Bingham and
Ames were fortunate in securing their old
positions. ~ .
When Mr. Glossbrcnncr’ii name was called
Ids seat hud not yet been occupied, and lie
' made a straight line for it; but before he
■ could reach it, Air. Plants, of Ohio whom
fortune’s wheel had driven from the Repub-
lican side, dropped into it, and Mr. Gloss
brenner took a seat behind him. Messrs. Go
vode, of Pa., and Deweese, of N. C., got
seats together iu the front row of one ot lire
Republican sections. By this lime nearly all
the seats on the Republican side had liecn oc
cupied. the Southern members generally
taking good positions there. The Republi
cans wlio had not yet been called began to
look blank. Toward the last the name of
1 General Buller was called, and after looking
lime
there was only one Republican member in
his vicinity, but lie began to colonize, and
oon gathered a number alxnit him; for
Messrs. Hooper, of Mass., Farnsworth, of
111.. Jackson, of 11. 1., Beaman, of Mich.,
and others, took scuts around him.
Air. Donnelly, of Minnesota, got a seat
within reach of Air. E. B. Wasliburne.
Messrs. Wood ami Eldridge were forced to
rear positions, as was also Air. Biw>ks, .Mr.
Spalding, of Ohio, left the society of Mr’
Williams, of Tennessee, and, with Mr. .Mar
shall, of Illinois, took it seat toward the rear
of the Democratic section. Wilson, of lowa
Kelley, of Pennsylvania, and Paine, of Wis
consin. were forced away back on the Re
publican side. Kellog, of Alabama got one
of the best seats in the House. Alessrs.
Boutwell and Eliot, of Massachusetts, had to
content tlu-msehes with back seats on the
outer circle. Meanwhile Mr. Ross, of Il
linois, who was the mover and author of the
resolution, looked on in vain and heard every
name called but his own. Finally, within i-vb ,
or three of the last. J*» <>«.-« caftof, and ob
tained oonier scat furthest to the right
'of the Speaker. His discomfiture was cheered
by the uhole House. Air. Peters, of Maine,
got a better scat than he formeily had. but
Mr. Lynch was forced further off on the
Democratic side. Air. Poland, of Vermont,
also fared badly.
It is a singular lad that the drawing be
fore this one was moved by Air. Poland, and
his name was called first, and he got an eligi
ble seat, while on this occasion Mr. Rost , who
moved the resolution, was almost the last
man called. <

How Bakon Rothschild Lived. —
As every one is- interested to know
how so rich a man as Barou Roths
child lived, correspondents are par
ticular as to every movement of his
daily life. It is related that he rose
every morning at six o’clock. His
body servant shaved and dressed him.
Meanwhile, M. Boudeville, a teacher
of elocution who fits people for the
stage, read the newspapers to him and
told him the gossip of the green
rooms of the Paris theatres. He was
dressed for the Say at this early hour,
putting on even a white cravat. He
next received a Prussian named Ber
nardi, xvith whom he examined the
unotations from .the great exchanges
- -.-iTT-m-xv ruceivcu tnecorresjkm deuce
- clerks, took from them the more im
-1 portant letters which required a reply
r from . the Baron, and approved or
1 modified the proposed replies to other
’ letters. Then the almoner came, in
t and reported on the poor relieved,
and received new instructions. lie
> then went to Mme. Rothschild for her
• instructions. After the almoner re
tired the Baron received his experts—
r men who kept him informed of all
> art and book sales; they made reports
or received instructions. Hethen went
) to breakfast. AH the family met at
. breakfast, and usually one or two of
’ his married children were present.
After breakfast the Baron went to his
u office (which was on the j
street, '-••parated from his house
’l by the court yard; a covered way
reached from one to the other) to re
ceive people. At two o’clock hs would
sometimes goto the Bourse, or oftener
to the auction mart, for he was fond
of buying objects of curiosity and pic
tures. He would return to his office,
and at four o’clock drive down to
Chateau de Sureene or Bois de Bou
logne, returning at five o’clock to his
club, where he would play whist at
1 ten sous a point until dinner time.
I During the last part of his life he be
j came eccentric in a good many small
j matters. lie carried a portemonnaie
which was closed by a lock, although
he never carried more than fifty francs
about him p* if a man carries more he
is sometimes led to extravagant ex
pense,” he used to say), ami often
nothing at all. He carried the key of
the lock on his watch chain. The
members of the club in thcßucßoyalc
used to laugh to sec the Baron fum
bling for his key, nnd even his lock
(his sight was laterly impaired), and
when, at last, he managed to open the
portemonnaie, to find it empty. After
dinner he received company at home,
or went to some theatre.

It is stated that Mr Wood will furnish
the house immediately, and occupy it

require,) were administered
when pain or uneasiness or
slight Eicknesa is experienced,

'. .v,'.l and healthy action, perspiration fol
lows and the surface of the body feels in
■ e !>d heat. The sickness at stomach, colds,
bills head-ache, oppressed brentliing, the
renew of the throat, and all pains, either
awiually or externally, rapidly subside, and
