The money is to lie devoted in |«irt to the development of Sunday School litera ture of a high merit. Of tlie 4,SOI ministers on the roll of the Presbyterian church for tlie year 1S77, theboard of education is reported as having aided 1,420, or nearly one- third. Many of these, It is said, are among (lie best and most efficient ministers of tlie denomination. The President of a life Insurance oompuny was sentenced to tlie peni tentiary, in New York, Tuesday. He seems to have tried every other policy but honesty. Stanley Matthews voted with the Democrats for tlie recommenda tion of Mr. Hilliard to the Hra/.il mission, on tlie ground that there is not a worthy Republican in Mr. Hil liard’s part of tne United States. Accohmno to Buell, that elongated agony of avarice and treachery which goes by tlie name of John Shermun seems endowed witli a quality of luck that is absolutely Irrepressible. The meaner he is tlie more lie succeeds. He reverses the old rule that virtue is its own reward. TUB FMMF.NT AND THE I SATES OF Mil Moses H. UuiNNEi.Ldiod Fri day afternoon in New York, in his seventy-fifth year, lie was bom on the 8d of March, 1H08, attaining thus almost exclusively to (lie age of his elder brother, Henry (Irin- nell, (lie founder of tlie drill (Jrlmiell, Minium & Co,, who was liorn in 1800 and died in June of 1871. Miss Camille Dubois, formerly of the Lydia Thompson troupe, bus married (lie Honorable Wyndham (Stanhope in Kuglnnd. There are those in New Orleans, says the New Orlouns Times, who know Miss Illi nois well enough, personally, to sym pathize sincerely in any important event of her life, ami lo wish for her every good fortune that can possibly befall. Miss Camille Dubois Hayloft' was a lady of culture and amiability and worth, whose virtues only shone the brighter in contrast with the cir cumstances that surround her. With tlie obliteration of slavery and military rule und hatred conse- qenl thereon, party issues os such are dying out. Republicanism lias not u thicud of hope on which to hang. All which gave it vitality lias departed. Slavery bus been banished anJ is a tiling of tlie past. The bloody shirt is only a gohst that excites laughter, and he who now daunts it in the breeze is regarded as a subject of ridi cule, to whom none cun listen witli a semblance of patience. The life a Re public, however, requires parties. Tlie healthy attrition of their differences, nerves vitality into |iolitics and com- |H>ls honesty from leaders. The South emerging from the war found herself as an integer of tlie nation without a party. The very nature of circumstances and the mur derous blows aimed at and indicted on our section urrayed us us u unit with Northern Democracy. With faith only justice can inspire, fora decade though baffled and cheated, we have worked earnestly until in 187H tlie peaceful ballot, which should lie sovereign, was treacherously de throned in tlie Hour of its victory. The campaign, however, solved a problem, and home rule was made supreme, and a unit in locality, aspira tions, products and aims established. The South is and must he for years to come a unit in polities. With no Southern question around which to rally, the great political contestants must gather hope and confidence from some new theme. Parties are not liorn suddenly. They at first are creatures of slow and afterwurds rapid growth. The key note of the coming campaign has already been sounded in Congress, and the lines are beingdrawn. Affil iations, remarkable and seemingly paradoxical already are marked, and no seer Is required for their observ ance. Of sufficient duration, our country lias proven no exception to history, ami society has divided itself into the toiling and fixed Income classes. The East by fortuitous investments are large holders of Government securi ties and these, it is their interest, even at the sacrifice of their sections, to make and keep valuable. The West needing its means to develop her industries have no accumulation of fixed income securities. The South, despoiled by war, bankrupted by proclamations and crushed by con querors and their hordes have as yet hud too little time to be uught than a debtor class. Then causes, natural, tinauciul and sectional, will coin the great iHsucn of 1880. If we he but true to ourselves victory, then, Is easily within our reach, and class en actments in the interest of the rich will be deeds of tlie post soon to be righted. The tariff and the currency are prominent among the living prin ciples. Old Line Whigs are fossils into which no political saviour has yet been found sufficiently powerful to awaken life. Measures of tills generation und day will create the party and bind together Its udheronts. Under no banner and with no name cun success be more huppily fought for and won than under the grand ting and potent name of Democracy. A coalition of the solid South and the great West, whose interests are bo near akin, can be expected, and with tlie motto “resumption, based on re newed industries and a liberal modi fied tariff,” they will press to the issue the exorbitant demands here tofore made by the East. Wiseacres may cry "Keep tlie matter out of poli ties," Inti what Is so essential to life us the blood itself? We have obtained and secured local self-government, the arbitrament of the sword having settled other Issues. Now, while wo aim at niateriul pros polity, let us then early begin to know that nothing, so earnestly ilo- niaiuls our attenllon as the medley known as the tariff, and the smuggled laws which debased silver and made arbitrary resumption. The speculative builder is fast (To uting a new city above Sixty-fourth street, New York, on tlie east side. Mudison avenue, and tlie streets be tween Madison and Fourth, from Hlxty-fourtli to Eightieth street, pre sent a scene of great activity. It will be realized how cheap land and labor now are when it is stated that charm ing little brown stone houses lti.H front, lot 75 feet deep, situated on Mudison avenue, near Seventy-fifth street, are or were recently offered for sale on favorable terms, at $15,500 each. These are. indeed, pailic prices. The Nutional Grange, in session at Cincinnati, Tuesday, by a vote of thirty-four to nine, declared its disap probation of Hie law demonetizing silver, and liy a vote of thirty to four teen made a similar declaration con cerning the resumption law, and ex pressed Its sympathy with the effort now being made in Congress “for the repeal of these obnoxious measures.” These declarations were coupled with a statement to tlie effect that to do so was not to take part in any question of party polities, but merely to sub serve the agricultural interests of the country. If Senator Shamil, of Nevada, should resign, how would Ids success or lie appointed? This becomes an important question. Tlie Governor of Nevada, elected in 1874 to hold of fice for four years, is L. R. Bradley, Democrat. The Legislature last year was Republican. In the Senate there were 12 Republicans, 12 Democrats, and 1 Independent. In tlie House there were 84 Republicans, and lit Democrats; Republican majority on joint ballot, 17. Tlie Legislature meets once in two years, or on tlie first Monday in Januury in odd years. There will then lie no regular session in 1878, anil, should Mr. Sharon re sign, u Democratic Governor would up]H>int his successor. Mr. Sharon’: term does not expire until 1881. DIED DO BAST. Editor Enquirer-Sun : The Atlanta Constitution, replying to tlie inquiry of the North Georgian, “Are you ready for tlie question ?” (referring to the Capital removal), Joyfully ex claims, “We are—we are ! It will not be necessary to go through, the form ality of calling the yeas and nays.” Now tills may all be very funny for ttie humorous writer of the “Round about in Georgia” column of that ]wi per, but It reminds me of a scene in which Atlanta's supporters were not os joyful, and in which, as is now suggested may occur again, there seems to be no necessity, to go through the formality of calling tlie yeas and nays.” I refer to tlie final action of the Constitutional Convention in regard to Atlanta’s bold proposition to have that city put In the new Constitution as the permanent Capital, In return for which she would build a new Cap itol. The friends of Atlanta were confident of success, and had spared no efforts to secure it. Gov. Colquitt was present for the first and only time during the sessions, attended by all the Btate House officials, and Sen ators Hill and Gordon. Mayor Angler and all his subordinates were also in attendance, and the galleries and lobbies were packed. If great members and high officials could In any way influence tlie action of (lie Convention, Atlunta had on her side all the power necessary to carry the day and win the fight. Gen. Gurtrell and other champions of At lanta made able speeches in favor of the proposition, und even Col. Hnl- combe, the “l’eople’s Reform Lender,” cried out for Atlanta—that putting tier in the Constitution would secure Its adoption by eighty thousand ma jority. But alas! neither vast numbers, great men, nor able speeches could move the jieople'g chosen and unpur- clinsable Representatives, and Col. Hulcombe’s Atlanta ordinance was voted down with such an overwhelm ing majority that no count was made. Gen. A. R. Lawton, as the friend of Atlanta, then sought to get In an or dinance postponing definite action for two years, but Ills eoflVt was a vain one, and the question of locating the capital was submitted to a vote of the people. Again, to the utter surprise and confusion of Atlanta, the vote was so heartily against her proposi tion, that not one of her friends or delegates suggested the “calling the yeas and nays,” and yet they had fully prepared themselves to be “ready for the question.” What has been, we are told, may be again. As soon as the result was finally settled, General Gartrcll, the great cliumpion of Atlanta’s proposition, came slowly down the main aisle, and putting Ills arm around a friend’s neck, said to him, “Did you over see anything die so easy ?" Witli a grim smile, the friend replied, “X never did.” Certain I am, in all my public experience, I never saw a mountain ofsucli huge proportions, labor so long und so painfully, and yet bring forth such un insignificant, sickly- looking mouse. There was not even respectable minority to put on rec ord, although weeks had been spent in drumming up recruits. Now I am prepared to state, if the canvass is conducted squarely in favor of the new Constitution, that Atlan ta’s proposition will “dio ns eusy” before the people on the 6tli of De cember ns It did before the Conven tion on the 21st of August. There is but one danger to this result, and it is one to which every true Democrat und patriot in the State should be aliyu. Atlanta's only hope is in tlie defeat of the new Constitution. Will tlie true Democrats and tax-burdeiiod property-owners allow a “Radical alliance” to make this result possihlo? Remember, there are white Radicals us well as colored, who are opposing the new Constitution, andln this work they are aided and supported by of fice-holding Democrats and other in terested whites. If every true man votes, as he should do—over the tomb of Atlanta’s scheme will soon he writ ten General Gartrell’s legend, “Did you over see any tiling die so easy?” Eye Witness.
