A SAt'REU MEMENTO.
THE 8IJ.VEB FONT INTENDED FOB CXB0LINA
OOBDON TO BE PBESENTED TO BElt
FATHER.
Journal o! Commerce.]
It will be remembered by the people of
Caroliua that the ladieu of Columbia, iu
patriotic recognition of the noble service*
tendered by Senator J. 15. Gordon, of
Georgia, at a time when the liberty of
South Carolina was trembling in the bal
ance, determined to present his infant
daughter, “Carolina," with some token
worthy of their high sense of gratitude and
affection. With this laudable end in view,
an association was formed and a commit
tee appointed to select a testimonial and
devise a plan for its exeontion. After
consultation the committee decided upon
procuring a massive silver vessel, which
it wus their intention to present as a baps
ti9inal font. The style was fixed upon and
the execution of the work was plaoed in
the hands of Mr. Jaa. Allan, a prominent
jeweller of this city.
On Saturday last the work was comple*
ted and the font was exhibited to a few
friends at the store of Mr. Allan in King
street. Last evening it was shipped lo
Columbia by express. It is one of the
handsomest pieces of silver ever exhibit
ed in Charleston, and is certainly a fit
testimonial to the disinterested patriotism
of the gallant Gordon. It is wrought of
solid storJiug silver, and stands from base
to rim 12 inches in height, and measures
in diameter, across the top, 10 inches.
The interior is heavily lined with gold,
whioh is highly and beautifully orna
mented with engraved patterns showing
the bright silver beneath. The shape of
the font is novel and exquisitely beauti
ful. From a solid square base rises a col
umn upon which the bowl proper rests
grace;ully. The exteiior is satin finished,
ornamented on the shank with delicately
engraved traoory. On one side of the
bowl is deeply and beautifully engraved
the eoat of arms of South Carolina, and
on the opposite side the coat of arms of
Georgia. Around the rim are inscribed
the words of Hampton's dispatch to Gor
don upon the removal of the United
States troops from the State House at Co
lumbia, viz: “The troops have been re
moved. Perfect peace prevails. Thank
you. Wade Hampton. April 11th, 1877,"
the signature coming beneath the coat of
arms of South Caroliua. On the opposite
side, beneath the coat of arms of Geor
gia, are inscribed the words: “The wo
men of Columbia to Carolina Gordon."
The ultimate death of General Gordon’s
infant daughter defeats iu a measure the
purpose of the Columbia ladies, but the
testimonials will nevertheless be present
ed to General Gordon, and will be doubly
dear to him, linking, as it does, the sabred
memories of domestic affliction with the
noble pride of successful patriotic zeal in
behalf of a down trodden State.

Senator Gordon.
National Union.]
Iu an “interview" given in one of the
New York papers, Robert Toombs (who
didn't call the roll of his slaves at the
foot of Bunker Hill Monument) is report
ed as saying that General Gordon would
not be returned to the Senate, on account
of his “eccentric" career. What there
may have been in the conduot of the
Georgia Senator that should seem so eo-
centric to Robert Toombs we cannot di
vine. When so eccentric? Before or
siuce his election to the Senate ? He wus
indeed ixi the Confederate army, which
we admit was all wrong—worse than ecs
centric—criminal, even, if Mr. Toombs
wishes us to so consider it. But he was
a gallant officer, never violating, as we
have heard, the strictest proprieties of
civilized warfare. That Gen. Gordon was
brave,his wounds attest,and lie wears them
all on his front. Binoe his election to
the Senate Gen. Gordon has been an ao-
tive and thorough-paced Democrat, when
he should, in our opinion, have been as
nctive on the Republican side. His frank
and generous nature would have found
Republican allegiance a congenial service.
But he has been an honorable opponent.
Fair, just and liberal, leaving the Con
federacy and its issues behind, and ac
cepting the situation evidently in good
faith, he has acted the part of a courteous
and high-minded American Senator. Mr.
Robert Toombs calls this eccentricity, and
says Mr. Gordon will not bo retnrned
Perhaps not. But the country will com
mend the Senator’s “eccentricity," and
regret that one from whom so much
hoped in the work of re-uniting the
hearts of onr people Rhould be remanded
to private life. But it may be that
Toombs is no prophet.
Senator MoCbxeby’u bill for the repeaj
of the bankrupt law proposes to repeal it
absolutely, with the simple condition that
all bankrupt cases pending in the United
States District Courts since October 20,
1877, shall be tried and determined nn~
der the law as it exists. What opposition
there is to the repeal of the act comes
from those who think that some bankrupt
law is neoesssry, and that it would be
better to amend and improve the present
one than to abolish it eotirely. They ar
gue also that the evil effects of the exist'
ing law are nearly exhausted with the
crop of bankruptcies committed to it by
the collapse of 1873. The majority of
solvent business men, however, state that
all efforts'to amend tbe law have failed
through the opposition of the officials
who reap snob large fees from it, that
there is no choice botween its utter re
peal and continued subjection to the ex*
pensive processes and frands that are per*
missible under it.

Editor Columbus Enquirer:
Yon will please find enclosed a Coman-
oheo Chief with proceedings of John
Wesley Hardin’s trial in it. The paper is
somewhat soiled, which I hope you will
excuse, ns it is the only copy I could get.
[We have previously published a full syn
opsis of the trial.]
Crops of this country arc very slim this
year. Some grasshoppers have made their
appearance. The formers are busy plant
ing wheat to feed them when they all
arrive. It is “good-bye John" when they
do get here,for they never leave anything
green, unless it is Rome of the people.
I think they would mako way with them
if they would go outside of the house
while they are here. J., of Columbus.
Fifty samples of wall paper recently
examined iu London, were found to con
tain arsenic either as arsenite or aceto-
arseuite of copper. Some papers w*th
green figures were found to bo froe from
arsenic, while as a rule, the higher priced
qualities contained the poison in the
largest quantities. A room of the moder
ate dimensions of sixteen loot square and
nine feet high would be covered, if these
papers wore used, with “ornamental sur- j
face containing from fiftytwo grains to I
more tbau eight ouuoes of poisonous I
matter.
Washington special to the Cincinnati
Gazette: Senator Merrimon, of North
Carolina, opened the subject of paying
pensions to Confederate soldiers by quiet
ly slipping in a bill which provided for
the repeal of a certain seotion of the
Revised Statutes. Under this title it
attracted no attention, but was referred
as he requested, to the Committe on Ju-
dioiary. An examination of the seotion
he proposes to repeal shows it to be the
one whioh prohibits payments of pensions
to any Confederate soldier, or widow of
any such soldier. The repeal of this sec
tion would open, the pension rolls to all
Confederate nrmieH and to the families of
all who served in them.
Congress must intend to make the
