The course of (lie President on the

Minnesota sets a good example to

printed on envelopes which every
body uses. These envelopes present
a condensed statement of (lie crops,
number of railroads, price of lands,

chief items of information needed.
They, of course, are distributed
through the mails alloverthe country

It Is stated that tlie population of
Richmond, Yu., as ascertained by a
census lately taken, is now over 72,-
(HHI, having doubled since 180(1. This
is due almost entirely to her largely
increased manufacturing _ industry,
the sales of her factories for tlie year
1876 having reached tlie huge sum of
$22,424,680. About half this iiiiioiiut
was from her tobacco factories, hut
Richmond lias a great variety of inaii-
uthetures, extending, as an exchange
says, “from a lueifer match ton steam
engine.”
AmiRiiiNu to a correspondent of
tlie Cincinnati Knqulrcr the reason
for the change of the name of Sena
tor Morton’s branch of tin 1 family
from Throckmorton to Morton was as
follows: Senator Morton’s father was
a Scotchman of wealthy parentage,
and when the fatherdied in Scotland,
one of Senator Morton’s uncles re
turned to settle up tlie estate, which
he did in his own Interest, and so de
frauded his brothers that they dis
owned him, and changed their names
liy dropping tlie Throckmorton, and
from that time these branches of the
family have retained only the iiaiiu
Merton.’’
HATE OF NORTHERN RAIIICAIA.
The Nortli lias been deluged with
accounts of class differences in the
Houtli. It is needless to add such re
ports are false as tlie king of false
hood, himself. These maligners of
our section are copious in their alle
gations that Northern men witli Re
publican principles nre not given
place nor association in our establish
ments, and are tabooed from society.
Such roorbacks constitute the stock in
trade of a eertainolass of politicians of
which the deceased Mr. Morton was
a prototype. There are thousands of
Northern men in tlie South who can
flatly contradict snob assertions. All
are willing to welcome skilled
laborers and give them a helping
hand. It is also true that
people coming from north of tlie line,
if they reside here a few years, no
matter what may lie their pre-con-
celved opinions, become Democrats
from choice. They do so, not from
any compulsion under tiie laws, so
ciety, nor persuasion; but from ex
amination of tlie situation and jier-
sonul observation, they are convinced
Hint tlie Democrats can alone save the
eountry and make the section pros
perous.
How Is it with Northern Republi
cans? There is no necessity there
for the wide distinction of parties.
Here (lie light for years lias been
against (lie supremiey of ignorance
and vice, supported by tlie bayonet,
over property and intelligence, and
tlie latter have won tlie victory. It
was self-evident they would as soon
as soldiers were withdrawn from tlie
upholding of illegal State Govern
ments, Unit contravened tlie will of
tlie people. In the North, no such
questions have arisen. There, at
least, they have been free from bayo
net rule, and equals were in opposi
tion on political questions. Have
they shown any of tlie magnanimity
of which they prate so much, and of
which they claim to he the exem
plars?
Hon. .1. Don Cameron, the successor
of his father, is tlie United Htates Sen

there would he raised through
tiie Republican ranks, a yell of indig
nation. They would sit on their hind
legs and fairly howl. Well Senator
Don Cameron has discharged a good
operative for the simple reason that
1i1h father was killed in Confederate
service. The workman could not
help It. Will IiIh party rave equally
now?
Tlie following letter explains itself.
It Is a sample of others we have seen
IlAanisnima, Pa., Oet. 30, 1877.
/)>-, Biurney: Dear Hin—I wrote to
Mr. A. 11. Stephens, of Georgia, two
weeks ago inquiring if it was possible
to obtain work in theSniitii, explaining
to him that 1 have had long experience
in tlie cotton mill business, and giving
my reason for wantingtogo South, mid
ho advised mo to write to you, using
his iiamo for roforoneo.
1 trust that it will not tax your mind
too severely to listen to my grievance.
I had boon omployed in Mr. J. 11.
Cameron's cotton mill at tills place fbr
six years,and had faithfully attended to
my work during t hut period and hud
never hoard any complaint. Just be
fore the lust Presidential election some
evil-disposed person circulated tiie re
port that my father, , of ,
Kentucky, was killed ill the Confeder
ate service. When the report ranched
Mr. Cameron, I was questioned as to
whether It was true, and answered ill
the affirmative. I was discharged two
weeks afterward—they refusing to as
sign any cause. I soon obtained em
ployment-working in tlie machine
shops, at my trade, tint ns Mr. Cameron
was a stockholder, l was soon dis
charged from there. Now, my object
in moving South Is to escape such per
secution as lias followed since; and 1
pledge you to serve faithfully and well
your interests, if yon will give mo em
ployment. I can obtain rocom mondn-
ttmfs from foremen and superintend
ents of both places, as they opposed my
dismissal.
Trusting that you will consider this
favorably, and answer soon, I am,
Very respectfully
Your obedient servant,
raised in the House, know the inter
ests of their constituents and how to
get at it. Home of them have been
here sixteen and twenty years.”
This idea of rotation is wrong In
principle, and us In Georgia we are
alsiut to commence a new era, let it
he abandoned, and elect men on their
merits and not because they are from
particular counties. A good repre
sentative, one who faithfully attends
to his duties and fairly illustrates his
constituents, becomes more influen
tial the longer he remains In office.
A ROKtIET CLERK WANTED.
Iii tlie appointment of House com
mittees, Sjieaker Randall endeavored
to “sit down on” Cox, of New York,
and forever suppress him. By doing
tills he has not added to his reputa
tion, for Mr. Cox is one of the ablest
members in Congress, lias ever been
u consistent and outspoken Democrat,
and one of tlie strongest debaters of
the House and most experienced, for
lie has served many continuous ses
sions. His position and standing en
titled him to a place on the leading
committees. On the contrary the
Speaker made him chairman of the
!ommittee on Library, u very suli-
sidiary one that meets about once
every three months and then has
nothing to do. They wore assigning
lerks to committees tlie other day,
when Mr. Cox came to the front and
jpened on the Speaker and the im
portance of the trust that Mr. Ran
dall had confided him:
Mr. Cox—I would like to Hay to tho
members of the House that tho Com
mittee on tho Library has been consid
ered by tho Speaker and otlior
a very important committee. No
body who lias not served on tills com
mittee knows what it has to do. The
Speaker knowH very well wliat arduous
duties devolved on the Chuirmaii of
that committee. Now, I would like to
make that committee respectable. I
would like to oiovato It In position be
fore tho House in this way. The Senate
has a clerk at tho other end of the com
inlttoo, and every day almost every
member of this House eomes to the
Chairman of that committee for a bou-
■uet. I shall not give up to tho Senate
Chairman on the Library what was
moant for mankind ill bouquets. The
gentleman from Pennsylvania (Mr.
Kelley) knows vory well that no man
can do ids duty hero and attend to tho
bouquet business.
“Mr. Kelley—Do you propose to del
egate that duty to tlie clerk ?

shall take a part of tho labor.

Why Fort’s Amendment »»» Accepted.
Waihinyton fiprrial t'i Cinrlnnall Hnt/uirer.]
There has been a good deal of com
ment on the fact that the Bunking
and Currency Committee accepted
Fort’s amendment as a substitute for
their hill. The difference is only as
between tweedledee and tweedledum.
The Fort hill proposes to repeul all of
tlie third section of tlie resumption
law, except the first sentence, which
provides for the repeal of those pro
visions of the former hanking laws
which limit tlie aggregate of hank
currency to $361,0(10,000, and which
provides for its redistribution among
the States. Tlie committee’s hill pro
vides for the repeul of the entire third
section. By the twelfth section of
chapter 2 or the Revised Statutes it is
provided that where a law is repealed
which repeals a funner law, sueli for
mer law shall not lie revived. There
fore, it Is obvious that the committee’s
bill repealing tlie third section
of tlie resumption law would not have
the effect to restore the limitations
on the aggregate of hank circulation,
or the provisions for its . redistribu
tion, but would leave hanking free
exactly as Fort’s amendment would
leave it. There are, however, two or
three members of the House who are
not very staunch opponents of the re
sumption act, who raise tlie cry
against tlie committee hill that it de
stroyed free hanking, and who say
they will vote for Fort’s amendment.
The committee, therefore, concluded
to make no opposition to the adop
tion of Fort’s amendment, and the
probabilities are that it will he adopt
ed as a substitute. Tlie omxinenta of
the resumption law need; therefore,
give themselves no uneasiness as to
Fort’s amendment, for its adoption
will destroy every mischievous
feature of "the resumption law.
While they are opposed do national
hanks, they would all doubtless pre
fer tlmt while that system lusts its
benefits shall he open to all, rather
than lie conferred on select pet corpo
rations.

The House did not give the Library
Committee a bouquet clerk, but it

Couiiiilttee on Manufactures and Ag
riculture and the Committee on the

The Navy.—There is what Mr
Horace Greeley used to call “some
mighty interesting rending” to tax
pay era In the report of Mr. Thompson
Secretary of the Navy. During the
Inst thirteen years the sum of $130,
000,000 lias been spent merely in re
pairing our nuvul vessels. The seven
sloops of war built during Mr. Robe
son’s administration, he reports, are
worse than tlie old ones. Three of
these are now undergoing expensiv
repairs, and tlie other four are kept
afloat at the risk of the lives of those
on board. Of the older ships the orig
inal cost of the Pensacola was $500,
(too, and her repairs cost $1,000,000,
The original cost of the Keuraugo was
$300,000; she was repaired at a cost of
$000,000. The Lackawanna cost $450,-
000; she was repaired at a cost of $760,-
000. And soon through the list. There
is evidently a pressing demand for a
congressional investigation into na
val attUlra, and the Inauguration of r.
new order of. things in that depart
ment. , » .
Allen C. Lewis, a native of
Sterling, Conn., went to Chicago in
1853, a young man of thirty-two, witli
a capital of $1,000. By judicious in
vestments In lund lie made a fortune,
and, dying a few days ago, left $800,-
000 to tlie city for the establishment
of a polytechnic institute containing
lecture rooms, a muling room -and
library (no novels), and schools for
the practical education of young men
and women of limited means. As
the Newberry bequest will give
Chicago a $2,000,000 or $3,000,000 free

to lie in luck.

PKI'-SiTl'Ri: ROTATION.
From the letter of a Columbus
gentleman, now on business in
Washington we take this which
is both sensible and tlinelv: "The
Georgia delegation is in good stand
ing hero, and tlie South lieiqg so
united is wielding a splendid and
powerful lutluenee in our national
IKilitles. If our section could ever
learn what tlie East and. North has
so long ago found out, tlmt nothing
requires more experience than the
role of a Congessman, they would re
turn their representatives time and
time again. Men may lie mediocre
in intelligence and education, yet
have the routine by tlie departments
of the Houses and of tactics right
at their lingers’ tips. These
weapons serve them well in lighting
abler hut fresher men, and heating
them as in tlie ease of poor Ewing in
Ohio with Ids repeal of tho resump
tion act. Tlielv generalship exceeds
Immensely, for a while at least,
superior brains and eloquence. To
become intimate with tlie dopart-
liients, their rules and regulations,
with tlie Houses and with legislation
generally requires more time than is
allowed the average Southern Con
gressmen. Cox, of New York, Ran
dall, of Pennsylvania, Erye, of Maine,
Butler of Massachusetts, Kelley, of
Pennsylvania are only a few of the
illustrations 1 speak of. They were
Tlie “llom* mikI Minew”
Of out country, have often—especially about

laudation; but when those useful parts of tiie
human structure become too visible In
sequence of leanness, tliey can scarcely lie
called graceful. Tlie eye delights not to
dwell upon angles and ridges in cither man
or woman. Moreover, ext reme emaciation
is a sign of Imperfect digestion and conse
quent poverty of the blood. Botli these
evils nre remedied by Hostetler's Stomach

the blood acquires richness and tho btx
substance. Tims are the hollow places fl
ed up and tlie angles rounded off. Through
the instrumentality ot this peerless aid to
digestion and promoter of physical well be
ing, the body rapidly gains in vigor, color
returns to the hollow check, the appetite
improves, nervous symptoms vanish, and
a healthful impetus is given to every vital
function.

The statement hoars the impress of
truth on Its face, and It Is testimony
from the writer’s own iH-rsona! obser
vation. He states what he has seen
with his own eyes. By the aid of a
mioroHco|io, that great revenler of
truth, he beheld the clear evidences
of the great crime by which tlie
American people were cheated out of
their choice ot President, and a man
who was not chosen was foisted into
that office. Looking at the returns
through a microscope, “they can,” he
says, “under tlie instrument, easily

tlie erasure showing very plainly.
The figure ‘2’ has been erased and

originally 400 Democrats and 2 Re

that 140 Republican votes were writ

Thus day by day one new witness

fraudulent title of Mr. Hayes to the
