WEDNESDAY FEBRUARY 3, 1875.
’ A ktjmbf-B of seal* were seen lying on
the ioe in New York bay on Friday last—
an mrasnal light, and ono indicating a
great movement of the ioe of higher lati
tude!.
“Lit us here peaoe!” exclaimed Gen.
Grant in his second inaugural address.
In view of the use of hie bayonets in
Louisiana, and his preparations for war
with Spain, it is difficult to tell whether
it was peaoe at home or peace with for
eign nations that he was most sohoitious
to preserve.
Tint Enfauta Time* annonnees the
death, last week, of Ool. Walker Rich
ardson, of Glennville, Ala. He was one
of the largest planters of Southeast Ala
bama, and a man much esteemed for his
good qualities. Ho died suddenly of ap
oplexy.
Thebe will be two eclipses of the sun
this year, one on April G, not visible in
the United States, and another on Sep
tember 29, visible east of the Mississippi.
The snn will rise partially eclipsed in this
latitude. In Georgia about half the sun's
disc will be eclipsed. From the Lakes to
the Atlantic, along the northern line of
Massachusetts, the eolipse will be annular
end nearly total.
A BU.L was offered in the Mississippi
Legislature, a few days since, authorizing
the Governor to reorganize, arm and
equip the militia, two regiments of which
are to be made a standing army, to be
held in readiness at any time to obey the
Governor's orders. The bill also author,
izes the purchase of four or more Gatling
guns; but somehow it did not meet the
views of a majority and was laid over.
The Philadelphia Bulletin, which could
justify the use of the military to re-organ-
ias the Legislature of Louisiana, is not
reconciled to the recognition of Kellogg.
It nrotests agaiust the reported action of
the Radioul Senatorial caucus, which by
a vote of 18 to 8 resolved to declare the
Kellogg government a logal one. The
Bulletin reminds Gongress that both that
body and the President have admitted
the reverse.
The negroes who on Monday reminded
Congress that a recognition of Kellogg
and a rejection of Pinohbuok would be
an invidions distinction on aaconnt of
color, wore precisely right. If Pinch is
no Henator, Kellogg is no Governor. No
proposition can be plainer than that. If
Congress recognizes the one and rejects
the other, the distinction can be ascribed
to nothing else than personal objection to
Pinohbaok.
The advance in gold since the passage
of the Congressional Financial bill does
not indicate any gonerol confidence in
the efficacy of that measure as an aid to
resumption. When tho bill passed, on
the 7th of January, gold was quoted at
112all2|J j now it is notive at 113all3£,
with an upward tendency. The truth is,
the country aocopts tho cot as all that can
be expected of this Congress, and as it.
amounts to nothing positive, it is simply
an acknowledgment that no preparation
for resumption will bo made for some
time to come.
Politicians are already speculating that
Andrew Johnson’s election to the United
States Senate will make him a formidable
competitor for the Democratic nomina
tion for the Presidency in 1870. We do
not see why or how. It is n great mistake
to suppose that all who approve his elec
tion to tho Senate would favor his elec-
tion to the Presidency ; and there is no
reason to think that his talontsand states
manship, though highly respectable, will
so far eclipse that of other Democratic
Congressmen as to direot concentrated at
tention upon him.
The Griffin New* says that influential
negroes, mostly preachers, are going
through the couutry trying to persuade
their race to emigrate to other States—
particularly Mississippi. They try to op
erate on their fears, and hold up the oase
of Tunis G. Campbell as a frightful ex
ample of what negroes have to expect in
Georgia. They will probnbly induce some
negroes to leave, but the most of them
will be npt to regret tho change when
they work awhile iu the great bottoms of
the Mississippi, Yazoo, Sunflower, eto.
They will then discover that they have
thrown away the substance of independ
ence to grasp the shadow.
We oopy a dispatch from tho New York
J'ribune, in whioh the prediction is haz
arded that the report of the second Con
gressional Committee sent to Louisiana
will be but little different from that of
the first. We have no confidence that
this will be the character of the report.
The sending of the second oommittea
was in itself so extraordinary a proceed
ing that it can be accounted for only on
the presumption that a different report
was determined on. As we have before
remarked, it was a “ground hog case"
with the Radical majority in Congress.
The sub-committae first sent was com
posed of throe as high miudod, honorable
and intelligent men as oonld be found in
Congress, and two of them were Republi
cans who had always beon true to the
principles ol tho party. Only what was
conceived to be a party necessity could
have induced the attempt to impeach
their report. This design will, wo be
lieve, be carried out unscrupulously. The
Tribune'* dispatch may correctly define
what thould be the character of the re
port from the evidence adduced, bat then
it would not bo such a report as the com
mittee went iu que.t of.
Death of a Pbeacheb.—The Mariana
(Fla) Courier of the 28th, inst. says that
Dr. P. R. Clements, while riding in the
neighborhood ofCspt. A. R. Godwin’s on
Monday last, was attacked with apoplexy
and died in a few minutes. Dr.Clein-
ents was a Methodist Minister and prac
ticing physician, and removed from Ala
bama to onr county a year ago. He was
a good citizen and was beloved for his
gentlemanly deportment, and leaves a
wife end children to mourn bis audden de-
HATTI.K MEMOS I EH.
[The following was written and set up
before we learned tjiat the monumental
ball was indafiuitely pos'poned. Wo
therefore give it to our readers :J
The days of that terrible war are paat.
Pray 'Heaven they may never be repeated.
They seem to the fnsjority ever presont
memories—memories of camp and march,
memories of toil and strife; end the mem
ories of each aide were the same, and
each aoldier spoke bis hope or anxiety in
the same mother tongue. Many an old
soldier will read this, not only the men
who commanded but the equally brave
men who bore muskets. Don’t you re
member some night, nay, many a night,
before battle, when the preliminary
skirmish of the evening was felt to be the
prelnde to the opera of death when the
morrow's sun dawned ? Of course yon
do, and you oan reesil to mind now as dis
tinctly as if it were yesterday what you
and tbc oomrade with whom yon shared
your blanket said. You, perhaps, were
yonug end careless, though with a brave
man’s appreciation of death and danger,
and be married or with dear ones whose
future happiness depended on his life.
You remember, when yon imagined him
asleep, and you were filled with wakeful
thoughts of the morrow, be turned and,
oalling you by name, laid his arm over
you and whisperod, “Old boy, there will
be hot work to-morrow.” The remark
accorded with your own thoughts, sud
turning your face to him under the im
pulse of that fellow-feeling that makes us
wondrons kind, yon answered, “Yes, and
I was just thinking where wo would be to
morrow night at this time. Perhaps rest
ing for the revolie that is to call up the
sleeping oamps of the world. If I fall
will you see mo properly fixed, Tom, end
go aud sea her ? You know we are en
gaged. Tell her I thought of her even to
the last.” Ha answered, “Yes, I will do
it; aud I was thinking, Harry, in oase I
fell, what would beoomo of Mary and the
little ones. God help them ; but even if I
am spared they will be none too well
off. Will yon see to them old boy, you
know my mother is with them. You will
help them?” “With ell my heart!” was
your answer, and faoe to face under the
same blenket you sank to sleep, to dream
of sweetheart, home aud little ones, and
to be roused in that darkest hour before
day, when the bravest qnails at the terri
ble summons of the long roll. Aud have
you not seen such a comrade fall by your
side, and have yon not stopped to hold
his head, and to bear his last words about
tbe wife and little ones ? Again and again
you have heard it, but never onoe did you
hear a brave man speak of a monument
to perpetusto his reoord. Ah! ths balls
that sent their names to fame came with
a hoarser musio than that whioh wo pro
pose for the useless perpetuation of their
glory.
Brave spirits of the maroh aud bivouac,
heroes of the battle-field and prison pen,
dami-gods of valor and patriotism, your
dear ones have not been oarod for, yonr
crippled comrades are neglectod, but sleep
on the fields msde immortal by your dar-
iug, for there is gny music in the enslaved
land ye died for. Urillinnt lights'are
flashing in festive halts, for a new gen
eration has risen to dance ye into monu
mental glory.
Coold tho immortal dead look down
from the better land and see this evidence
of latter day patriotism, would it recon
cile them to thesufferings of the dear ones,
and would heaven itself be happier at the
thought of a dance gotten up to perpetu
ate their deeds?
A CROP LIEU.
A correspondent, whose communication
appeared yesterday in bur paper, called
for tbe expression of an opinion on tbe
subject of a new “crop-lien.” We have
not seen a copy 6f tbe bill (perhaps
there are two or three) before tjie Legis
lature, and consequently do not know
whether the measure eontains sneb pro
visions os accord with onr general views
or not. We apply to the proposition
these general principles, which iniluenoe
onr opinion on many questions of legisla
tion: ,
1st. We are opposed to any sumptuary
law, which would restrict a man in the
free disposition of his own property, ex
cept tbe nse of it to the injury of others.
2d Wo are opposed to any Shylock
legislation which will enable a creditor
arbitrarily to seize all the proceeds of a
man's labor for tho satisfaction of a debt.
If the lion law proposed snbjeots tbe
crops of farmers to tho claims of credi
tors, without special contract to that effect,
we are opposed to it. Bat if it proposes
merely to legalize special contracts by
which farmers hind their erops for the
repayment of advances in money or pro
visions to enable them to make tbe crop,
we are in favor of it. To oppose it would
conflict with the first general proposition
which we Btate above.
It is unfortunate that many of our
Georgia planters tre iu a eondition re
quiring them to execute suoh liens in
order to obtain advances. Bat it might
be disastrous to forbid them to do so, or
to withhold legal recognition of eontracts
for that purpose. We are as strongly as
any editor in favor of the planting of
less cotton and more provision crop;, but
wo do not propose to compel it by legisla
tion, cither direot or indirect. We cher
ish the hope that onr planters are
are making some progress towards the
safest and best system of farming ; bat
many of them need help to enable them
to cary out any system, and if they can
get it by s lien upon crops, voluntarily
given, we think that the law should sano-
tion the arrangement.
Louisiana. Investigation.
THE KELLOQO PAItTY UNABLE TO MAKE
OUT A CASE.
Special to N. Y. Tribune,].
New-Obleans, Jun. 28.—The testimony
of the army office) s is generally very dam
aging to the Kellogg House. All agree
that there is no government; that Kellogg
is nnable to protect or to punish, arid
that the army is indispensable to preserve
the shadow of authority. All admit that
their views of the lawlessness, intimida
tion, Ac., is gathered from Packard, Kel
logg A Co.; that they never saw any in
stances themselves, :and only heard about
them.
Gen. Morrow alone claimed to have
mixed with all classes, and bis evidence is
uncompromisingly in favor of the Conaer-
ratives. lie deposes that they all manifest
respect for ths United States Government
and shows very plainly that they have
cause for theireumity toward Kellogg. He
asserts that troops have been used unnec-
cessurily and with improper harshness.
The Committee are evidently despond
ing as to a case against the Conservatives.
Mr. Frye has exhibited a strong desire to
eliqit one, but thus far fails to accomplish
much. Tho witnesses are not successful.
It is a s fe prediction that this Sub-Com-
iuittes cannot detract materially from the
force of the roport of the other. I am con
fident tbnt Judge Hoar and bia colloagues
will eudeuvor to arrange an adjustment of
some Bort. They see that tho Kellogg Gov
ernment cannot be sustained, nor tbe ac
tion of the troops on the 4th justified. The
Conservatives are quite willing to leave it
all to them, and have so asserted personal
ly, as well us formally.
The vote of yeeterday in the House of
Rspreseotstives at Washington on tbe
question of suspending the rules, make#
almost oertsln the adoption of the new
rule agreed upon in Radical oauous. If
R commanded two-thirds to suspend the
rules and permit its introduction, it will
of course oominand a msjority on the
question of its adoption; and the Speak
er has already anuounoed that he will not
entertain dilatory motions to prevent a
vote upon it. We may therefore as well
regard all the protection of the minority
ns swept away, and a bare Radical ma
jority empowered to do whatever they
may within the next four weeks—and no
longer. The next question is, What will
they do ? We fear the worst.
COMPROMISE.
IT IS BEIKQ WOBKED AT—WHAT BUMSB
BATS ABOUT THE TEEMS FBOPOSED.
The absolute dead look in the matter
of onr State Legislature has operated to
iuduoo opposing elements to consider
methods of compromise. For several
days post the snbjeet has been under
discussion. It is believed the movement
is under the auspices of the Congressional
Committee. Some days ago, it will be
remembered, tbe Conservatives elected to
tho House of Representatives agreed, in
a written communication sent to tbe Com
mittee, to submit all the questions re
lating to the organization of the Hoase
to them. Thas far no publio announce
ment has been made of a like agreement
on the part of tbe Ropublioans, and
their failnre to do so has very
jnstly subjected them to the suspicion
that they are conscious of being on the
weak side of a bad cause. Nevertheless,
conferences have taken place with ths
leading members ofthe Republican party
on the snbjeet. Snob consultations were
held on both Saturday night and
Sunday night, and from all we hear
it seems possible an agreement may yet
be reachod. As on previous occasions,
there are marplots on both sides—men
who have no other policy then to win all
or lose all. In this instanoe, however,
they seem less formidable, and may fail
to prevent an adjustment.
Full and detailed statements respecting
these conferences are not possible, bat
enough is known to warrant us iu saying
that one prominent
PLAN or ADJUSTMENT
which has bean suggested is for the five
Democratic members who were ejected to
be returned to tbeir seats and the House
reorganized throughout; on such organi
zation the House to work iu harmony with
the Senate and State government.
We do not wish to be understood as
saying that these consultations have gone
any further than the voluntary conversa
tions of members of both parties with
individual members of tbe oommittee.—

doc28 tf At Kyle’s Old Stand.
Carl Schur. anti bia Family.
Few senators know how to entertain
with refinement. Carl Sohurz is un
doubtedly the heat host ia Washington
for un evening purty.
All the members of his family are in-
tellectualized up to his grade, and, like
the beat class of Germane, they can throw
off profoundness of chat and listen to
musio, the host meantime nil-pervading
and witty nud soothing, while Mrs
Sohurz, with her dark Hamburg eyes
and almost teudorly interest in young
people, receives, one by ono, her orders,
and is obliging, without effort, to ail.
Her daughters ore growing up after
the stylo of their father and mother,
and the young men observe in them n
docility and sensibility quite rare in gen
eral society
Sohurz holds bis place iu the senate us
much by industry as by talent. He is not
a man of genius, but his accomplishments
arc general; he knows sufficient of music,
the languages, mathematics, polite liters,
tnre and low, to be considered proficient
iu the country of partial education like
oars; and, then, he ia always fortifying
himself. In the eveuiugs, when hi
brother senators are distributing palron-
ago nud writing goosey letters to a hun
dred numbskull constituents, playing
poker, keeping an assignation, or stuff
ing down food with- Saui Ward at Welk
er’s Carl Schurz is at his books. His
wife has put the children to bed and ia,
perhaps, sawing at his sido.
He has'none of tho embarrassments
which attend fashionable wives, whose
daily atndy it is finding oat what to wear
for the benefit of other men. Tbe star
of bis fame Mrs. Schurz admires, but
docs not worship. Her ideal is a more
stable and frugal career than waits on the
Senate.
To hnshand his resources of tbe mind
and the purse, to be a part of some real
society, and to develop more slowly and
in the Hue of happiness, is this German
wife’s desire She knows tbe petulance
and exaltation of the literary mind, its
wants of husbandry, and the necessity of
giving it method and self-denial before
ita wayward habits become incurable.
She desires him to write to St. Louis and

Brownsville, January 29.—A letter da.
ted at Rio Grande City, January 27, from
Samuel J. Stewart, Deputy Collector of
■Customs, statesThac the tPoops on a scout
from Ringgold Barracks had a fight with
c ittle thieves near tho rancho called So
lalo, about eighteen miles below Rio
Grande City, oh the day previous,
which two United States soldiers and two
cattle thieves were killed
General Hatch, commanding at Ring-
gold, had gone in pnranit of the thieves
with two companies of cavalry.
Wagons with rations had been sent off
after the cavalry left, and it is evident
that General Hatch means to make a

Monday, 1st.—The Legislature made
some progress to-day with hills on which
the Republicans have made party fight,
and whose passage they have obstructed
by dilatory proceedings. The Senate
passed the bill dividing the State into
Eight Congressional Districts, with amend
ments, substituting Marengo for Wiloox
in the 4th District, and Wiloox for Maren
go in the 1st; also taking Coffee from the
fid and attaching it to the fid District. Iu
tbe Senate, Mr. Robinson, from the Com
mittee on Frivileges and Elections, re
ported a substitute for tho bill regulating
elections in this State; whioh was made
a special order for Thursday. Mr. Glass
introduced a bill to regulate the enclosure
of atook in Bnllook aud Macon ooanties ;
whioh was referred. The Senate passed
the hill to regulate municipal elootious in
Montgomery, whioh the Radicals have for
some time steadily fought, mainly because
tho 10th section allows challenges at tho
polls.
In the House, the Radicals consumed
the day in making fight agaiuBt the bill to
abolish the City Court of Selma; but late
in the evening the House ordered it to s
third reading and made it a special order
for Wednesday, by a vote of S3 to 23.
The Advertiser says: “The bar of Selma,
and all who ara interested in business be
fore that oonrt, are anxious to have it
abolished, and the basiness transferred to
a tribunal whore the Judge is competent
to try causes. But as au incompetent ne
gro presidos over the City Court this was
enough to induue the Radicals to resist
action on the bill, aud they resorted to
every possible motion to delay time.
They evinced considerable interest in the
penitentiary, and were anxions to hear a
report read oonoerning the management
of things in that institution. Every mo
tion that was mode involved a call of the
roll, but the Democrats made up their
minds early in the day to oamp all night
in the House if necessary.”
During the day the Governor announced
his approval of the following bills:
To annex fraotiounl township seven,
range twelve, aocordiug to the Florida
aurvey, to township one, range twenty-
eix, aocordiug to the Alabama survey.
To allow constables ia the oonnty of
Pika the same compensation as is now
allowed sheriffs in oertain oases.
For the relief of Henry W. Battle, of
