Tn municipal eleotion in Knoxville,

Democratic triumph. The majorit;for
Peter Staub, Democrat, for Ma;or, wee

A PKoroeiTiox ia made that the Govern

to be out of employment on the Red

rush for the stolen* bacon last ;ear, in
Alabama, was a trifle compared to the

Tan PnosrnoT.—The latest develop
ments and speeulationa do not dear np
the perplexity as to the action of Con
greas on the Louisiana question and other
matters affecting the stains of Southern
States. We learn from dispatches to the
Western press that on Saturda; the Rouse
Judioiar; Committee took three votes
upon as man; propositions for the man
agement of the Louisiana case, and re
jected all of them. The first was Butler’s
bill for a new eleotion; the seoond, a res
olution directing a sob-committee to pre
pare a bill for a provisional government
and the third, the recognition of Kellogg.
It is difficult to oonoeive of an; other
probable mode of settling the question
except one of these. The recognition of
the MoEnery government and Conserve
tive Legislature would bo honest and just,
but of oourse it ia not to be expeoted of
this Congress. The aocounts say, how
ever, that the provisional government
proposition for Louisiana is gaining favor,
The special of Saturda; to tbe Cincin
nati Commercial says: “There is inueh
discussion as to what will be done with
the Southern question. The proposition
of Southern Republicans, headed by
Alexander White, of Alnbauia, to declare
that tbe States of North Carolina, Geor
gia, Alabama, Mississippi and Arkansas
have not governments republican in form,
does not meet with muoh favor."
“Sio Transit" Ftva Millions ! —The
first oaloulated results of the observations
of the late transit of Venus make the sun's
distance from the Earth five or six mil
lions of miles few than the latest previous
calculations. We are now told, as a les
son of the transit, that the distance is
about 88,500,000 miles. Whereas the
minimum distance by previous calcula
tions was about IK).out),000. The distance
bad, up to a recent period, been calcula
ted at 96,000,000, so that wo now have a
computed diminution of about 7,500,000
miles since man; of us learned the rudi
ments of astronomy in our school books.
We hope that no one is alarmed, even
though the wild suggestion is made that
the Earth has actually approached that
much nearer to the Bun within afew years I
Eighty-eight millions of miles is still a dis
tance inooaoeivabl; great and comfortably
remote. We have sometimesbeen skepti
cal enough to think that one million of
miles was a very great stretch—an im
mense distance for us to see objeots with
the naked eye, aud for the transmission
of intenso light and glowing best from
an; body, however large, brilliant and
fiery. But for a very great revorenoe for
Newton and Kepler, we might have
tolerated tbe heretical suspicion that
astronomers labored under an optioal
illusion—that they dul not make sufficient
allowance for refraolion, deflection, Ac.
Their constantly diminishing measure
of the sun's distance forces the sus
picion that their bate* of calculation may
still be faulty, or their accepted measures
of vslooity, bulk, .to., unreliable. But
tbe; promise to settle all discrepances in
1882, and we will have to wait until that
time for a slill further reduction in tbe
computed distance of tho Bun. As Gen.
Bberidan says, “wears not afraid,” and
wa do not intend to sound the note of
alarm until the; bring the Bun a great
deal nearer than any of them would ven
ture to suggest at present.
•‘MtrtJDIATIOll.**
In 1868, whan Ron. George II. Pendle
ton was the favorite of the Democratic
for theit Presidential nomination,
the most potent argument used to defeat
him was the objection that he favored
the payment of gold interest only on that
pjrtinn of the bonded debt upon which
tbe Government had expressly eontraoUd
to pa; interest in coin. As to the balance,
his supporters contended that the cur
rency of the people, which the Govern
ment Lad made a legal tender, was good
enough for the bondholders. The oppo*
cents of Mr. Pendleton denounced this
proposition as a repudiation of a portion
of the interest. The Radical party, espe
cially, was loyally horrified at the thought
of paying any portion of the interest in
a ourreucy below gold par, even though
that ourrenoy was a common legal tender.
They nominated and eleoted Gen. Grant
as tbe representative of this opposition
toso-oalled repudiation.
But times obange, and men and parties
ehsnge with them. Tbe Administration
party now find it necessary to do some
thing that will have the appearance of an
approaoh to spaoie payments. Accord
ingly Gen. Grant, in his speoial mesaago
sent to Gongrass last week, recommends
a repudiation of a portion of the debt of
the United States, as the first step to
wards resumption 1 lie proposes that the
Government use its surplus gold in the
purohass of its own legal tender notes at
the rats of 90 cents on the dollar. We
copy from his message:
The Secretary of the Treasury to re
deem legal tender notes, whenever pre
sented in sums of not less than one hun
dred dollars and multiples thereof, at a
premium for gold of ten per cent. leBs in
terest at tbe rate of two end one-hslf per
sent, per annum, from the 1st day of Jan
uary, 1875, to tbe date of putting this law
into operation, and diminishing this pre
mium at the same rata uutil final resump
tion, changing the rate of premium de
manded from time to time, as the interest
amounts to one-quarter of one per cent.
It hardly needs argument to show that
this is clearly a proposition to repudiate a
portion of the Government debt, while
Mr. Pendleton’s was merely a proposition
that tbe Government should not be more
generous to its creditors than the bond
explicitly required. It ia true that the
payment of interest in legal tenders would
affeet the gains of tbs bondholders mere
ly, while tho President’s recommendation
would discount to the extent of ten per
cent, the Government obligations hold br
the people generally, lint we do not re
gard this difference as advantageous to the
President's proposition. The bondholders
have already rcoeived baok, in the way of
interest, nearly tho full amount that they
lent to the Government, and they have
had their semi-annual payments in gold,
even when gold was at its highest, thus
giving them at all times a ourrenoy supe-
rior to'that of tbe paoplo, and sometimes
worth more than double tbe paper cur
rency of the oountry. On the other hand,
the people holding and using the Govern
ment's treasury notes have for many years
had to pay higher prices for all that they
have had to buy than they would have had
to pay in a currency at par with gold.
The proposition to disoount the people's
ourreucy in its redemption is, therefore,
heartless as well as dishonest. If this is
to be the beginning of specie payment,
what will the end be ?”
member of Plymouth Ohuroh handed her
a delicate cluster of violets and white
rose-buds. 1 he flowers were pre
sented with a graceful compliment.
That little bunch of flowers had a signifi
cance to her wbieh few iu the court-room
appreciated. It was an intimation that
she was still kindly remembered in
Plymouth Church. Her thanks were ex
pressed very unaffectedly. It is true
that there were many present who smiled
sardonically, and saw in their presentation
an attempt to produce a drsmstio effect,
but such were evidently not her thoughts.
The display of flowers on “tbe Plymouth
side of the house,” as it is designated by
the spectators, was very marked, and
gave rise to many complimentary aud un
complimentary criticisms. Quite natur
ally, under the oircumslanoes, when
uaguifleent and showy bouquet of roses,
violets, lilies, and arbutui was brought to
Mr. Tilton, it attracted the attention of
the entire audience, counsel not excepted.
The plaintiff blushed like an innocent
school-boy as he detached tbe card attach
ed to (he floral tribute, aud read the
inscription, “To Theodore Tilton,
with the compliments of his
friends.” Immediately afterward
bat-box was handed to Mr. Tilton, an 1 re
moving the cover,he drew forth a bouquet,
if anything more coiiapicuoua than tbe
first. By this time the counsel and the
witness on the stand ceased to attraot the
attention of the spectators, and Mr. Til
ton aud his group of counsel were under
every eye. The plaintiff had scarcely de-
osited his gifts upon the table at which
le was sitting, before two additional bon
quete were passed over to him, tbe larger
one being for ex-Judge Morris. Mr. Til
ton's face turned crimson, and a smile
ran around tbe oourt-room. Gen. Pryor
moved uneasily in his seat, Mr. Shearman
appeared muoh amnsod, ex-Judge Beaoh
looked solemn,and Mr. Fullerton,although
busily examining Moulton, stopped for a
moment and oast a quizzical glance at the
sentimental offerings, which seemed so
strangely out of place in a court-room.
From one of the bouquets Mr. Tilton
drew a note written on tinted paper. He
read tbe contents with an appearance of
gratification, and then placed it iu his
pocket.
The effect produced by tbe floral dis
play indulged in by the friends of the
nlaintiff and tha defendant was not cal
culated to draw out compliments for
either. If the jury and spectators were
romantio young ladies of poetical fancies,
the floral tiibutea might have touohed
some tender chords, but the majority of
tbe spectators in the court-room were of
a practical turn of mind, and so—they
simply smiled. As for Mr. Tilton, while
he no doubt bad a keen appreciation of
the oomplimenta bestowed,be waswitbout
question greatly embarrassed. It is safe to
say that the great question at issue will
not be settled in favor of the man who
can show tho greater number of bouquets.
“Rosemary and rue” may be in order, but
roses and violets are out of place just
now.

Wxbbin, Ark., January 11.
Editor Columbus Enquires : Enclosed
pleats find $3, for which I wish you to
continue my papers, the weekly and Sun
day. We love old Georgia yet, and espe
cially the Enquirer—cannot do without
it. So you oan write ns down “a sub
scriber for life, ” unless we gat too poor to
pay for it, and then we will try to borrow
one occasionally.
The past year bos been the moat disas-
trooa to tba agricultural interests of South
Arkansasknown to the oldest inhabitants,
and hence many, if not all, are Buffering
from it. Au unusual quantity of Inud has
been sown in small grain, and if we oan
only live until # goad wheat crop is har
vested and blackberries ripen, we will be
a happy and, I hope, a wiser peopls.
Tbe grangers are doing much to corroo
tbe evils in our agricultural system, aud
the prospect now ia that cotton will be a
seoondary crop iu tho near future.
We are jubilant over our new consti
tution and Slate government, and if let
alone, we will, ere long, correct the evile
that have afflicted us sinoe 1868.
The past few days have been the cold
est ainoe the winter of 1872 anfl 1873, and
wa fear mneh damage has been done to
wheat and oats.
Raspaotfully, yours,

ALABAMA LEGISLATURE.
Monday, 18fA. —In tho Senate, several
members offered resolutions of inquiry,
or condemnatory of the iuterfereuoe of
the Federal military iu the affairs of Lou
isiana. Aftar considerable debate aud
tba rejection, by a vote of 10 to 19, of a
motion to lay the subject on tho table,
they were referred to the Committee ou
Federal Relations. The Senate took up
as a special order the bill to enoourago
immigration and provide for the appoint
ment of a Commissioner and Board of
Directors, and after amendiug ordered it
to a third reading.
The House, after the introduction ef
some local bills, took up the bill to regu
lata the execution and approval of the
bonds of certain county officers, and after
considerable aud animated diaoussiou,
postponed its further consideration uutil
Thhraday at 1 o’clock.
Tbe Governor informed the two houses
of bis approval of several bills, among
them the following:
To regulate trials in Chancery Courts.
To abolish the Bullook Criminal Court.
Dubino Senator Logan's venomous
spaeoh against the South, on Thnreday
lest, the following ooloquy ocoured be
tween him and Gen. Gordon, as wo learn
from the CongresBioual reports:
Mr. Gordon said Senator Logan had
made a remark when he (Gordun) was out
of tbe chamber in regard to the majority
in one of the distiiots of Georgia. Ha
(Gordon) desired to ssy them was no
Ropublioan candidate iu that gjixtriot;
therefore there could be no llepublioan
votes. There was but one candidate
there and he was s Democrat.
Mr. Logon said he referred to the fourth
district.
Mr. Gordon replied that that was the
district he referred to.
Mr. Lagan inquired how it was in the
eighth distriot.
Mr. Gordon replied that there was but
one candidate there, the Hon. A. H
Stephens.
Mr. Logan said he ouly gave the facts
as they appeared from the record. Of
course they were open to explanation.
He inquired of the Senator how about
eounty candidates? Were there not
county candidates who were Republicans?
Mr. Gordon replied in the negative.
The canity officers were elected the year
preceding.
Mr. Logan thereupon dropped Georgia
affairs, like a hot potato, and took up
other branches of his slanderous speech.
•‘■VANDAL BLOSSOM*.”
Under this appropriate heading tha
New York Tribune takes tho following
notice of some incidents in the court try
ing the Tilton-Beecher oase, ou Friday
last:
Tbe oonrt-room, or rather that part of
it reserved for counsel, was fragrant with
the odors of hot-house plants. The vio
let vied with the lily, and the chaste ca
mellia was in contrast with the petals of
the “red, red rose.” For several days
past the table near Mr. Beecher's seat has
been decorated with choioe flowers from
the eouservatory of a friend. A beautiful
bouquet of violets was placed in tba vase
yaaterday morning, and a similar bonquet
was presented to Mrs. Bteoher. The
wife of Theodore Tilton had no sooner
taken her seat and removed the heavy
lace vail whiob covared her face, than

that Consumption cart be cured, and that it has
been cured in a very great number of oases
(some of them apparently detperate ones) by
Schenok’s Pulmonic Syrup alone; and in other
rases by the same mediolne In connection with
Sohenck’s Sea Weed Tonio and Mandrake
Pills, one or both, according to the require
ments of the oaso.
Dr. Schcnck himself, who enjoyed uninter
rupted good healthafor mere than forty years,
was supposed at one time to be at tne very
gates or death, his physicians having pronoun
ced his oase hopeless, and abandoned him to his
fate. He was cured by the aforesaid medlclnos,
and sinoe his recovery, many thousands simi
larly affected have u«ed Dr. Sohenok’s prepa
rations with the same remarkable success.
Full dlreo'loDS accompany eaoh, making it
not absolutely neoessary to personally see Dr.
Schenok unless patients wish their fungi ex
amined, and for this purpose he is professionally
at his prinoipal office, Corner of Sixth and
Arch Streets, Philadelphia, every Monday,
where all letters for advice must be addressed.
Sehenek’s medielnes are sold by all druggists.
