Rowell’s reports of the changes
in American Journalism during the
month which lias just closed are in
structive and significant. Of twenty-
five new papers set afloat and profess

Republican; while of the fifteen par

tence but three were Democratic.
The press is a pretty g<sal barometer.

President Hayes introduced Rev. Dr.
J. L, M. Curry to his fellow-citizens
ns follows: ‘‘I introduce an old school

How They (Stand on Resump
tion.—The vote on the repeal, of the
resumption act shows that the North
stunds 106 for forced resumption and
88 against. The Mouth and West
show for resumption 65, against it
120; the East 50 for and 18 against.
The prevailing policy of the West
and Month is clearly defined for repeal
and of Hie East for forced resumption.
The figures of the vote indicate the
Republican party every wliere is for
resumption. This will hurt them
badly in the elections.
England is again involved in war
with one of the savage tribes tlmt

troublesome at times. The hostilities
now reported from Cape Town are
between the merciless Galakus and
the British and their native allies.
Two buttles have occurred. In the
first, on the 24th of September, 8,<KXl
Galukus attacked the itritisli, but
were repulsed with a loss of 200, the
British losing only one man killed
und six wounded. Their loss on the
29th, when the second battle took
place, is not reported, but as rein
forcements have been sent forward

situation is serious.

Old Field Marsh al Von Wran-
OEL, whose dentil at the ripe age of
93 wus recorded last week, was one of
those great men whom we occasion
ally meet with in military and In
civil life who achieve greatness simp
ly by holding on. Ho was already a
colonel when he fought at Waterloo
under Ulucher, and as years passed
and ills elders and contemporaries
dropped off he rose in rank and in
command, until, when he lmd been
sixty yearn in the service, Ids tenacity
was considered so remarkable tlmt, iii
recognition of it, he was made a Field
Marshal. After that he distinguished
himself by his very savage campaign
against Denmark, which reflected no
particular credit upon him or his roy
al master, but which won for him a
coronet. But ho distinguished liim-
»elf still further by holding cm some
years more, his utleetionnte sovereign
giving him a fresh decoration now
and then, until last summer, on the
eightieth anniversary of Ids entry
into the service, there was nothing
left for the emperor to do but to give
him a sword and write Dim a gushing
letter. But even such a life must
come to an end some time, and now
the grim old solder 1ms igonc to Ids
long rest.

Congressman Finley, of Florida, lias
introduced a joint resolution in the
House proposing an amendment to
the Constitution of the United States
that the President and Vic
President shall be elected by a direct
vote of the jieople of the several Slab
that electors in each State shall ha
the same qualifications as electors of
the most numerous branch of the
State Legislature, and that if two or
more persons shall each reeelv
equal and the greatest number of votes
for President, then the House of Rep
resentatives shall from such persons
immediately choose the President.
The resolution further projmses that
the election shall be held at the time
now provided l»y law for choosing the
Presidential electors; that the returns
be canvassed at the time and in the
manner now provided, and that the
two houses of Congress shall he the
judges, each house voting separately;
and in east'of a disagreement of the
two houses, then t lie matter shall go
U the Supreme Court for final decis
ion.
HON. HENRY W. HILLIARD.
His confirmation as Minister to
Brazil, n special to the Savannah
Xeirs says, will he reported against
by the Senate Committee on Foreign
Relations, uud tlmt this information
lias been definitely ascertained. The
Republican Senators have agreed to
stand by each other to defeat all con
firmations that are In any sense
against party Interest; but the Ad
ministration has assurances from a
sufficient number of Senutors to feel
no apprehension us to results. The
tblrty-tbree Democratic Senators,and
Senators Davis, Matthews and Chrls-
tianey may safely lie counted on, nnd
they are sufficient. Several others
may join the party that can forget
the war Is over, and is laboring for the
restoration of unity nnd harmony.
When the Democratic Senator from
Indiana has taken bis seat, as the
successor of Morton, there will be
thirty-four Democrats to sustain any
proper nomination.
Mr. Hilliard is now at his |xist In
Brazil and Ills family in Europe.
True, he was a secessionistand worked
for its success. That was long ago.
It luiH not debarred him from I icing
an American citizen,nor of represent
ing ttie country abroad witli honor.
His State, Georgia, Is the political
equal to any in the Union. Mr. Hil
liard, in Ids race for Congress last
year, did more for the perpetuation of
the Republican party thun any one
inun in Georgia. He claimed to be
an Independent Democrat and op
posed ttie nominee of the party of
which he professed to be a member.
He attempted to divide Democrats,
and rallied to bis support all the mal
contents and Republicans. But for
this the Republican party in this dis
trict would have been as dead many
months ago ns it is now, nnd heyoml
the possibility of u recovery. There'
was no chance for a Republican, but
us an Independent there was a forlorn
hope that Democrats might di
vide, and the Independents, with the
aid of Radicals, go in. Thus, the Re
publicans were held together longer
than they would have been had not
such tactics been adopted. Wo
opposed bis election with ull
our power, and were gratified to know
that Congressman Harris led him by
some eight thousand votes and we
had contributed largely to that result.
In the contest lie was deemed n
quasi Republican. With the fuctlomd
party of the North that ought to be
sufficient, but the carpet-bag Senators,
accidentals of war, are tile ones who
are causing the opposition to his con
firmation.
Mr. Hilliard was a resident of Co
lumbus, highly esteemed socially, and
regarded as a gentleman of ability, nnd
when lie was announced ns Minister of
Brazil, those who hud voted against
Dim were glad at his good fortune, and
tendered congratulations, All were
aware that a consistent Democrat
could not lie appointed, and they con
sidered Mr. Hilliard ns one who would
ably and honorably sustain the dig
nity und Interests of the American
people at a foreign court. We hope he
will be confirmed, and that our Sena
tors and Representatives \tilj labor
Jo effect that consummation. We be
lieve it will be carried without much
trouble.
FRENCH SITUATION AND PARTIES.
All the indications point to the
fact tlmt MucMuhon must uppoint a
ministry in accord with the Repub
licans, lie must resign or resort to the
bayonet. The Republicans will uot
compromise on a cabinot constructed
from the Right with i'ouyer Quertier
as Premier or any one else. The
Bight Is 11ms subdivided: Extreme
Rigid, favoring the return of Comte
de Cliumbord as Henry V., with no
concessions to the liberal theory
of monarchical governments;
the Moderate Rigid (Pouyer
Quertier belongs to these), favoring
the legitimist pretensions of Comte
de Clmmbord, with count itutionat
guarantees; the Right Center, com
posed of the partisans of the Orleans
family, who favor a eonstiutlonal
monarchy, ami, if they can not get
that, a very moderate republic. The
Left Centre of the Republican side is
the only Republican group which
would favor any compromise with
tlie Right, as the members are Mod-
rate Republicans. The Left and
Extreme Left—the progressive Re
publicans and the Communal Re
publicans—will make no compromise.
It is thus seen wlmt sharp antagon
isms are now agitating the French
Republic, and how MucMuhon walks
a pathway paved with dynamite.
Vlallr Iforgaa at HlekaaradL
At Richmond. Mr. Hayes, in intro
ducing Senator Morgan, of Alabama,
said : “It is hardly fair thatonly the
departments of the Government
should be represented here, and as
there is present u member of Con
gress, I will present him to you—
Senator from Alabama, General Mor-
gun.”
General Morgan said that no Ala
bamian ever fulled to find a welcome
to the hearthstones of Virginia as cor
dial as to their own homes. He sjxike
feelingly of the sons of his native
State who lay beneath Virginia soil
and the tender and mournful memo
ries associated With the neighboring
hills wliere their bones are buried.
His meetings with the President
hud been a great pleasure which hud
fallen to him by accident. He said
the speakers who had preceded him,
some of whom were sons of Virginia,
had comehitlierwlth tlie olive branch
of peace and earnest wishes for the
prosperity nnd happiness of Virginia
and the South. The methods of gov
ernment pursued by them would con
tribute to tills end, und for our own
share in the benefits conferred upon
tlie whole country, they were entitled
to our lasting gratitude and they need
have no apprehension of our purposes
In the future.
it was a happy day when tlie Presi
dent of the U nlted States came among
us, inspired by a feeling of interest in
our agricultural and commercial insti
tutions without earing for ourpoiitics.
Sucli un event must have important
results. Tlie speaker, in conclusion,
addressed himself to the President,
urging him to move on boldly and
perseveringly in tlie course lie liud
adopted.
Hen. Forrest aw a Christian.
In his sermon, at General Forrest’s
funeral, Rev. Dr. Htainback, of Mem
phis, said:
"On tlie 14t,li of November, 1875, on
a calm Sabbath evening Bedford For
rest und bis now stricken wife en
tered tills church and took their seats.
I preached from the parable found in
tlie great sermon on the mount,wliere
the builders'on the rock of faith and
tlie builder on the sundsof false hopes
are contrasted. At tlie close of tlie
discourse I (Hissed out and found Gen.
Forrest waiting at tlie door. Ho took
my ami and we iiussed the pavement
below. There lie stopped abruptly,
and trembling lie leaned against the
wall, and, as tears fell from his eyes,
said : ‘Sir, your sermon lias moved
tlie last prop from under me. I am
the fool that built on sand—I am a
poor miserable sinner.' Tlie form
which never trembled before tlie
stoutest man seemed all shaken. ‘My
dear General,’ I said, ‘I thank Go'll
for this. If you feel that you are the
foolish Imildcr, you are in tlie best
way to get upon tlie rock.’ I told
Dim how ‘God so loved the world that
he gave His only begotten Son that
whosoever belleveth on Him should
not perish but have everlast
ing lift.'.’ Then l gave him the 51st
Psalm to read. I called at his room
the next night and talked With him
and prayed with liim. At tlie close
of tlie prayer he arose nnd said : ‘I’m
satisfied. All is right. I put my
trust in my Redeemer.’ Since that
time, my friends, I know he has said
many things not like a Christian,
and done many things which he
should not have done. But no man
over felt this more keenly than lie
did. When I saw him on Thursday
lie confessed tiow far lie lmd done
wrong and brought reproach upon
tlie cause of Christ. ‘But,’ said he,
‘(tod hns forgiven me.’ Raising his
emaciated hand, he pointed to ids
breast and Haid, ‘All is peace here. I
want you to know that between me
and my God there is no cloud. I am
at peace witli God.’ I bowed my
head U|k>ii that hand and wept for
Joy. Said I: ‘General Forrest, I
thank my God for tills.’ Then lie
gave me this message: 'Tellmy breth
ren and sisters that during six weeks
I have lain in my bed and communed
with my God. Tell them to take up
their cross and follow their Saviour.
Tell my old comrades in sin to give
their hearts to God and seek a higher,
holier life.’ ”

Philadelphia, November 3.—A
series of law suits have been com
menced in tlie courts here for tlie re
covery of a large amount of patent
lands in Virginia, West Virginia,
Kentucky, and thiH £ity. The plain
tiff, a Mrs. Millar, is a daughter of
Ferdinand M. Young, who is a son of
John Young, tlie original owner of
the lands. The value of tlie entire
property claimed is said to be about
130,000,000. According to the state
ments made, it was purchased by John
Young, between the years 1784 and
1800 at prices varying from one half
cent to five cents per acre. The lands
in this city are located near Wash
ington Square and are very valuable.
In Virginia there are some 114,000
acres claimed, which are located in
Fayette, Harrison, Montgomery, Mo-

There own resources were to a con

on both sides of tlie Atlantio it was
impossible to draw bills or to remit

The longest railroad bridge in tlie

across the Tay by means of a ferry,
