This beautiful sentiment is ascribed to General Sherman: “I.et me kiss the pretty girls of a nation, and I care not who does the waltzing.” Hon. B. Ht Hint., who is u mem ber of the Committee on Privileges and Elections, says Mr. Eustis, of Is>uisiana, will lie seated by a vote praetleally unanimous. • + • — It is said that Judge Hpollbrd, if he gets his wished-for Congressional honors, will entertain magnificently at Washington. Mrs. Spofl'ord, who is very wealthy, will play an impor tant iMirt in society. Ninety miles in ninety minutes. Hothern’s troupe made that a few days ago. The troupe performed in Now York one night, went to Boston, per formed there the next morning, re turned and performed in the former city the next night —all in twenty-six hours. — ♦ ♦ • Mits. Sophia Wokkkm. (Mrs. Geo. Knight) while playing in “Otto,” in Memphis, the other night, fell in a fainting tit headlong on the stage, in presence of the audience, during the first act. She speedily recovered and the play went on. This is an old dodge of Sophia. • ♦ ♦ ♦ ——— The Anil-Horse Thief Association has 301 lodges and 8,000 members in Missouri, Iowa and Illinois. It does not encourage lynching, although that course is permitted in places where the officers of the law cannot be relied on to prosecute thieves. In a recent convention in Augustn, III., it was said that the order had secured tho conviction of over 1,000 thieves within a year. — —— - - — 4 ♦ - — —— ■— A Frenchman, who died recently, aged 104 years, witnessed the follow lug Government changes in Ids own country: Tho reigns of Louis XV., Louis XVI., tlie Convention, Direr lory, Consulate, Empire, Louis XV11L, the Hundred Days, the Res toration, Charles X., the Revolution of 1880, Louis Phlliippe, (lie Revolu tion of 1848, the Republic, (lie Km- |)lre, the Republic. — _ ♦ ♦ » • So far only twenty-four ex-mem bers of the South Carolina Legisla ture huvesworn that John .1.

However, Carolina law nmy accomplish (lie same result by sending Hie distin guished carpet-bagger to (lie peniten tiary, ■' ♦" • • The course of (lie President on the repeul of Hie Resumption Act is already beginning to lie a subject of interesting speculation. Mr. Sherman is violent in his denunciation of Hie measure. Mr. Foster, who is the principal friend of (lie President in tlie House, Is sure that (lie President will not sign tlie hill, while tlie Hon. Stanley Matthews is positive that lie will sign it. Neither gentleman pro fess to speak by authority. Hkkk is a beautiful extract from Mr. Tulmagc's recent pulpit utter ances : Great is tlie bottle. Oil, rum jug, we bow before thee to worship. Wo 8 rav that thou will destroy all those mi do not liow before thee and pul them out of office. And (Ids we usk In the name of Schiedam schnapps and lager beer and old rye whiskey. Amen and amen. | Laughter.] A rather shocking travesty of holy things; blit then Mr. Tahimgc is a genius and a “rum Tin.” Minnesota sets a good example to other States as to metliodsofiudueiug immigration. The latest advertise ment of the State’s attractions is printed on envelopes which every body uses. These envelopes present a condensed statement of (lie crops, number of railroads, price of lands, health, |sipulatioii -in fact, all tlie chief items of information needed. They, of course, are distributed through the mails alloverthe country and operate just as efl’ectually as a pamphlet. 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 ator from Pennsylvania, tlie second largest State in tlie Union. The Dem ocrats oil Tuesday wrested it from tlie Republicans. Now Senator Don Is a representative of tiie “great,generous, moral, God-fearing party,” so-called He owns mills in his State which em ploy numbers of operatives. Now if tlie Engle and Plienlx or any othe mill of Columhusor the South were to discharge!! competent, faithful work man for no other reason than ills fa (her was killed in Federal service 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 ? “Mr. Cox—I proposo that tho clerk shall take a part of tho labor. “Mr. Kelley—What will tho country do for ooplos of your autograph, if you REUrNmoV nEPKAT.. 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. A XE IF BIVKRIIT UR’. BOOTS ANDSHOES. NEW SHOES —AT THE— Old Shoe Store. tot FALL AND WINTER STOCK JUST RECEIVED I New and Attractive allow tho clerk to givo orders for bou quota? “Mr. Cox—My wlfo always writes my autograph.” The House did not give the Library Committee a bouquet clerk, but it gave Chairman Cox a third Interest in a clerk already assigned to the Couiiiilttee on Manufactures and Ag riculture and the Committee on the Militia. 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 library the Western city may he said to lie in luck. -IN- Gents’ Shoes Brown Cloth-Top Button Congress, “Fifth Avenue” Congress, Ladies & Misses Fine Shoes, Kid and Pehble-Bntton, Sitle-Lace and Foxed Work!

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 elect ion time—been made tlie subject of 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 Bitters, which render digestion an assim ilation certainties, in consequence of which 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.

We copied, the other day, from the HeraUI, the statement of a New Or leans iHirresjsindent of that journal touching the Vernon parish returns, which constituted apart of the fraud by which Mr. Hayes became Presi dent de facto of tlie United States. 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 he seen to have been tampered witli, tlie erasure showing very plainly.
