Wl learn from Atlanta that the follow

There is good material for half a dozen

makes the point that “the Preaidant's

The Legislature is Democratic on joint
balkft'by a small majority, not withstand
ing the ref nsal to count a part of the Dem

Senate atands twelve Conservatives to
twelve Republicans. The Assembly
atands twenty-eight Conservatives, not
including one from Santa Rosa, to twen-
ty-fonr Republicans.
Wi find the following in reference to
the appointment of a Federal District
Judge for Alabama (to succeed Busteed)
in the Washington Republican of Thurs-
day. As the Republican is tho Adminis.
tration paper at the oapital, it no doubt
apeaks from official information :
Representative Hays, Judge Haffold, ex-
Gov. Lewis, Representative Pelham and
•x-Gov. I'ar-on8, of Alabama, were at the
Executive Mansion yesterday to see the
President with reference to the appoint-
aant of a successor to Judge Busteed.
Measn. Hayes and Saffold aud ex-Gov.
Iewii succeeded in obtaining audience
with the President, but Representative
Pelham and ex-Gov. Parsons, on account
of the late hour at which they arrived,
ware not so fortunate. It is believed the
President will select a successor to Judge
®u«Ued during tho preueut week, and
between Saffold,
Afwfo and PiwKm,, with the cUnoeg
PARTY TROUBLE*.
The first week of the session of Con
gress has not been niaiked by any signs
of agreement among the Radios! mem beta
aa to tho poHoy by which thay will at
tempt to retrieve the waning fortdnec of
their party. Thay held a caucus early in
the week, but no agreement aa tea conns
of action on any question wm rescind.
The National Republican merely sayn of
this osneus that “it failed to arrive at •
oondoHiou in tsgard to tin policy to be
pursued on pending business during the
present session. It was, however, decided
that Mr. Carpenter should continue In his
position aa Preaidant pro tempore of the
Senate.” An editorial leader in the same
iasus of that paper shows that it contem
plates the party situation with much ap
prehension. It aaya plainly that **tht re
sult of the Iste elections wm an etnphatie
and unmistakable protest against the
management and direction of the party in
the last sessionand thst “unless within
the next eighty or ninety days the Repub
lican majority in Congrem comas op to
the requirements of the hour and the de
mands aud expectations of the people, U
will te more bsdly beaten in ’70 than it
has been in ’74.” The Republican throws
the blame of the disasters snd dificul
ties of the party entirely on Congrest. It
says that (he people were “disgusted with
the policy of the party in Coogres*,” and
signifioaiitly reminds the Republican
members that “two-thirda of them have
been repudiated by their constituents.”
This is the spirit In whioh the Adminis*
tration and its particular supporters re*
ceive the majority of their party in Com
gross on their re-assembling after the sig<
nal Republican defeat. The criminations
and sneers of the Republican are directed
especially at the “inflation” Republicans,
and the leadera of that wing of the party
have so far shown no diaposition to aban
don their grouod. On the contrary, on
the first day of the arsaion, in the debate
on Mr. Kelley'a iutor-couvertiblo bond
and currency bill, both Mr. Kelley and
Gen. Butler announced tbeir firmer ad
herence to the expansion policy which
they supported at the last session. Mr.
Kelley strongly supported his bill, and
was indignant at the suggestion that the
President would veto it if passed by Oon*
gross. Gen. Butler, in his speech, de
clared that the Republican party had
been defeated beoatiae “it hud be
come a party bf invested capital, a
party of bondholders and monopolists.”
It is stated by Washington reporters that
Mr. Kelley has declared bis willingneas to
join an independent movement, if of re
speotable strength, against the contrac
tion policy of the President. Whether
this be so or not, it is plsin that he and
Butler cannot unite with the President’s
party upon a financial policy, nor will
they quietly submit to tho imputation
that they oimsed the defeat of the Repub
lican party by opposing the President’s
policy at the last session. Neither is there
any indication as yet that any of the
flatiouists,” constituting a niujo.ity of
the party in Congress, will yield to the
President's will.
The Rejmblican, in the same article,
calls lustily for Republican “loaders” to
take direction in Congrjss and rescue the
party from its threatened fate. It says
that Blaiue of the House, and Conkling
of tho Senate, sre tho man to do this y
that Mr. Blaine, especially, must come
down from his seat ns Speaker snd take
the load of the party ou the Hour of
the House. It will be noticed
that both ti e men thus culled upon to
take the load belong to tho President’s
party of contraction, and that both are
opposed to the views of the majority of
thoir party in Congress on the ourreucy
question. Both are also understood to be
aspirants for tho next Presidential nomi
nation of the party. It is not, therefore,
a strange suspicion that tho Republican,
supporter of Graut for a third term,
may wi«h to “kill off” Blaiue, snd per
haps Coukliug, by making them the aotive
champions in OongresH of tho Preaident’a
financial policy. Bo far os Conkling is
concerned, the call upon him to tako the
load in the Seviato is made more noticea
ble by the fsot that that position has
heretofi ro boon euuceded to Senator Mor
ton, who is, however, au inflationist.
These manifestations serve to show how
difficult it will be for the Republican
party, st this session, to reconcile the dif
ferences of its opposing factious and go
before the country with a well defined
public policy of such strength as to com
mand the support of the people.
Alabama Legislature.
Friday, 1 ItA.—In the Bettato, Mr. Lit
tle, from the special committee, reported
favorably to the bill to prescribe the
manner in which the public school fund
shall bo disbursed. [Provides that the
Btate Superintendent shall on the l(Hb
day of December of each year apportion
to each county the school fund to which
it is entitled; that the tax oolleotor of
each county shall pay over monthly to the
County Superintendent such sums as are
oollocted for school purposes, Ac.]
Amendments were offered, and then the
bill was recommitted. Mr. Cobb, from
Federal Relations, reported favorably to
execute the powor of disposal of lands
grauted by Congress, under an aot grant
ing public lauds in altoni ite sections to
the Btate of Alabama to aid
in the construction of certain rail
roads in said Btate, approved June 3,
1856. Tho report and bill were made a
special order for Tuesday. The Senate
passed the following bills: To ohauge the
county linen between Montgomeay and
Pike ; to change the oouuty lines between
Bullock and Pike; also tho House joint
resolution for the appointment of a com
mittee to inquire whether tax collectors
have not violated the law
qairing them to pay into the
Btate Treasury the same monies they re
ceived for taxes. Iu lieu of the House
resolution for the appointment of a com
mittee to name a day for adjournment
and a day for re-asscmbling, the Senate
adopted a resolution proposing to adjourn
on the 17th of December and re-aaaemblf
on the 13th of Jauuary-the members to
receive no mileage.
Iu tho House, tbo Speaker announced
the joint committee of eight to divide the
Btate into eight Congressional Districts.
The committeemen for the State at large
are Messrs, demon is of Tuscaloosa, D.,
and Bruce of Wilcox, R. Mr. Greene of
Lee is on the committee for the 3d
District. Lewia of Perry, for the 4th
District, is the only colored member.

Mej. Calhoun, aa our readera are aware,
wav a Federal aoidier, sad bat a leg flwbt-
ing for what b* conaidered the right. Five
years ago or more be waa eomtnaudaat of
a poat of the Grand Army of the ltepnblio
in Pennaylvenia, Ou memoriaTday he 1s-
eoed an order requasttng the member, of
the poat to deeorate abb* the grave* of

tiooi We tbink a*' Altoona, a resolution
waa off.rsd dtamUoing Major Oalhuun
from the rank, of the order. He appeared
upon the platform bf its presiding officer,

Hi* demand to be beard was ro-

for a senna of Justice to resume its sway.
After an hours riotous oonfnaion his

who he* listened to this “young men elo

to the fair fame and rtgard our ppopla *c
cord him.—Montgomery Adrertuer.
Defeat boa not dulled General Butler's
aptitude for saying smart things. In th*
debate on Tuesday he tons pictured tb*
two parttd.:
“ t he Republican party is held respon
sible for the distress that bas been brought
upon th, country. We have become a
party of invested oapital, a party of bond-
'boldan and monopolists. Tba ltopubli-
oan party attraotad th* teas mao of th*
country whan it star'ed, because it start
ed by bringing up labor. It oommenoed
at the lowest itratnm, the slave, and
raised him to citixauahip. But war and
the uoccHsities of tha Government brought
to tho party the capitalists of the couatry,
end at last, when the war waa over, we
had a party at the head of which were the
capitalists, and at tha foot th* negroes,
with not much atfllliation between them.
[IjniiRbter on the part of the Democrats.]
There is no occasion for yonr laughter, as
the Demooratie party is In very muoh the
seine condition. The old Whig party
loaders, the capitalists of the parly
who would not come into tbo Re
publican party hecanaa they wonld not go
for bringing up the laboring men, finding
nowhere else to go, went over and be
came leaderslu the Demooratie party,and
no that ia a party now with old Whig
bondholder* for its bead aud Irishmen for
its tail—[langhterj—and there la very lit
tle affiliation between head and tail,

-The Pork Trade.
Wo extraot tha following relative to the
pork trails from the Cincinnati Price
Current:
Tbs pork trade, in foot, seems to be in
an artificial and not in o natural condi
tion. It is not an extraordinary foreign
demand, nor an iocreneed consumption at
bomri, which is the canve ot the current
high prices. It is not that there is not
meat and lard enough now and in pros
pect ; bat it is a spirit of speculation,
which, perhaps, is based upon the large
consumption of two or throe year* peat,
eii-1 npon a supposod decrease in the pro-
dnotiou, but whioh may nevertheless not
prove os muoh restricted ns expected.
< Illicittio buys hogs and sells the produot
iiuu.«di»t,ly, and os long aa aha fiuds cus
tomers to buy at prices whioh uct a alight
profit, it makea bat little difference what
aho pays for thorn, and U toe effect ot
this was confined to that city, no one
would complain; hut she is virtually es
tablishing prioes whioh sontrol other mar
kets, ami force paokera who du ouly a
legitimate packiag business to pay more
for the produot than they feel justified in
doing, to pnt away in their oellara, but
which they must do or remain idle. It
may he that pork will be kept Up by thik
speculative influence nntil the packing
season Is over, bnt it must necessarily

longer it is postponed the greater will be

Llttell’a Living Arc for 11*75.
After its auooMsful career of over thirty
years The Lining Age seems more vigor
ous und prosperous than ever before.
Always the chief, it in now (since its ah-
sorption of “Every Rstorday ’) the only
eclectic weekly of the oouu try. Whut
distinguishes it is the faot thst it presents
inexpensively, comuderiug its three, and a
quarter thou Hand large jtagee of reading
mutter n year, with freshness, owing to
the frequeuoy of iln issue, snd with a sst-
isfnotory oompleteuess attempted by no
other publication whatever, the ablest
esH»ys and reviews, the best serial end
short stories, the finest sketohes and
poems, and the most valuable biographi
cal, historical, scientific snd political in
formation from the entire body of foreign
periodioal literature.
It is therefore invslnable to Amerioau
renders as the only thorough an well as
fresh compilation of a ge erally inacces
sible but indispensable current literature;
generally inaccessible because of its great
bulk And coat; indispensable because it
embraces the productions of the ablest
living writers in science, fiction, poetry,
history, biography, polities, theology,
philosophy, criticism and art.
Represented in its pages are such dis
tinguished authors as Prof. Max Muller,
Prof. Tyndall, Dr. W. B. Carpenter, Hon.
\V. E. Gladstone, Prof. Huxley, Francos
Power Oobbe, Richard A. Proctor, Mat
thew Arnold, the Duke of Argyll, Charles
Kingsley, Arthur Helps, James An* bony
Fronde, Mrs. Muloch, Anthony Trollope,
Mrs. Olipbaut, Miss Thackeray, William
HUck, George MacDonald, Jean Iugelow,
Erokmauu-Chtttrian, Iveu Turgueuieff,
Tennyson, Browning, aud tnauy others.
Dutiug the coming year it promisee,bo-
sides tho best serial and sboit stories of
the leading foreign authors, the usual
amount, unapproached by any other peri
odiosl, of the most important literary and
scientific matter of tho day,from the pens
of the above named aud many other
ablest living contributors to ourrent liter
ature.
Iu the multiplicity of quarterlies,month
lies aud weeklies, The Living Age is an
invaluable economiser of time, labor and
money. It is pronounced “the best of
tho ecleotios,” and, all thinga considered,
tho cheapest; sud has become almost a
necessity to every person or family desir
ing a satisfactory compendium of the
noteworthy iu the literary world. Iu no
other known way, ceitainly, oan so much
of the best work of the beat minds of the
age he obtained so conveuienently, or
with so little money, as through this most
comnrehenMce ot periodicals.
The subscription price is #8 a year,
which is cheap for the amount of reading
furnished; or tor those desiriug the oreain
of both home and foreign literature, the
publishers make a still cheaper offer, viz:
to send (postage prepaid on both periodi-
eal*) The Tmng Age and either one of
tho Aiuerioan $4 monthlies, or weeklies,
a year for f 10 f>o. With The Living Age
and one or other of onr leading American
moolhliea, a subscriber will, at remarka
bly small cost, be in possession of the
best whioh the current literature of the
world affords.
The volume begins Jao. 1st. and to new
subscribers, remitting now, the publishers
(Little A Gay, Boston,) offer to send the
intervening u umbers gratis.

Daly, in Common Pleat, remitted the
opinion, this afternoon, denying the mo
tion to continue the injunction restrain
ing the Police Commiesionere from inter
fering with Sunday concerts at Terrace
Garden. Tha court sustains th# constitu
tionality of the aot for tha bettor preset
vation of tha peaoe on Sunday, and de
clares the things prohibited need not be
expreased in tha title. Moreover, the
oourt cannot agy, judicially, that a pro-
