The newspapers have struck the Rev. T. DcWitt Talmnge, the sensa tional preacher of New York, munyu hard blow; but they should now re tract all that they have said, for hear some of Mr. Talmage’s recent utter ances: "To publish a newspaper re quires tile skill, precision, boldness, vigllnncc and strategy of u commuml- er-ln-cldof. To edit it requires that one be a statesman, an essayist, a geographer, in fact, an encyclopedia. And to govern and propel it till it is an established fact demands more qualities than any business on earth. ♦—* ♦ Several children were feeding a pet bear witli corn at Austin, Texas. An ear was drop|a*d out of tlie reach of tlie bear, and a little girl handed it to him. Tlie bear sportively pulled her to him, when a house dog, be lieving tlie child in danger, sprang upon tlie bear. Bruin then curried the child to the further part of tlie liogsliead in which lie slept and re turned to light tlie dog, under tlie im pression that tlie dog would hurt the child. A party of darkies tried to protect the child from her other pro tectors, but tile little one did not es cape until her mother hud killed both lieurund dog with a musket. » ♦ ■» The attitude of tlie thirteen Demo crats who, either actively or'passive ly, op|sised coutlrmatlan was a sur prise to many persons. To them tlie President owes his defeat, and their course is mainly attributable to a feel ing of disgust and disap|Hiiiitmeiit at tlie seating of Mr. Kellogg by tin* votes of tlie Administration Senators. This act of tin* Administration wus keenly resented, because It wus gen erally said among tlie Democrats, on tlie President’s own theory, the ad mission of Mr. Kellogg was a gross and deliberate wrong, and, those who suffered it to be done, when they could and ought to have prevented it, lost their sympathy. The Government lias the advant age over the Indians in more ways than one. Having their funds in possession, it can recover damage* without any trouble. A Dill was passed by* tlie House last week to pay five thousand dollars out of the an nuities due the Cheyennes for tlie support of Catherine and (Sophia Ger main. who were captured by these lndiuns in 1874, while going from Georgia to Colorado, and afterward recovered by tlie government.

An effort was made last year to secure this money for the girls. A Wholesome Effect—It is thought proluible that tlie persona who preside over New York life in surance companies will next month present annual statements u|>on which tlie public may rely with con fidence on the conviction of Pressdent Case for forgery, which is likely to be followed by tlie conviction of President Lambert, who is now on trial for the same of fense, may lx* expected to have a wholesome effect, and to induce of ficers of corporations to aseertuln for themselves whether the figures of their subordinates an* false or true.

Butler was serenaded in Columbia, South Carolina, on Wednesday night, and in reply com passed in a short address much that should be heeded, and some tilings of whicli we were not previously aware. General Butler utterly dis countenanced tlie idea’of the forma, tion of a new isirty, and condemned those candidates who ran against regular nominees. Now let us say in advance, we do not regard the races we have had in our county or district as classed among tlie independent movements which are censured in ull quarters. Democrats were not divided. General Butler thinks it utter folly for the South to talk of new formations in politics when vic tory so near promises so surely for Democracy. We really think there is no fear to be entertained of such a result, for all can see tlie necessity of liurmony and union. In 188(1, at least, tlie South will lie solid for Democracy. Gen. Butler clearly states that Mr. Hayes and the Administration sought and latiorcd for the admission of Cor bin as Senator from South Carolina. Tlie vote of Stanley Matthews and others show it. This gives an excuse wliy so many Democratic Senators were passive in tlie fight between Mr. Hayes and Conkling, and why four of them voted witli tlie intter. Tlie dr facto President and his advisers took tlie same stand with regurd to Kellogg. What reason, however, could have been strong enough to in duce Southern Senators to sustain tlie most bitter, arrogant and insulting foe their section ever had, we are utterly unable to comprehend. True, Corbin hud no shadow of law nor right on his side in the contest, “but,” says General Butler, “does a desperate Radical majority, dwindling day by day out of existence, stop to consider questions of law or right ? Was there any law for the admission of Kellogg from Louisiana? It was a tlugrant outrage on Hint gallant sis ter State of ours. There was no law for thut, and none to seat Corbin; but I tell you I know whereof I speak when r say that tlie Radical majority of tin* Henute laid determined to seut Corbin, and I now suy with regret and reluctance thut tlie man, whom I think 1 am not stigmatizing too severely when I say that lie procured his present position through fraudu lent methods, threw tlie entire weight of Ids Administration, bucked by ins friends, to perpetuate this outrage on South Carolina, and scat tills man Corbin.” Gen. Butler alluded to tin* persistent calumnies and insults witli which lie hud been assailed by Radical (Senators, such us Hoar, of Massachusetts. He submitted because lie felt that tlie interests and rights of the people of (South Carolina were at stake, but he utters unmistakable notes of warning to tlie effect that, now that tlie contest Is over and lie is in ids seat, lie will bear them no longer. "Willie,” says lie, "I have determined not to In* betrayed into personal recrimination against tlie men, Senators of tlie United States, who have cowardly attacked me when I was disarmed and unable to defend myself, now that 1 am their i>eer upon tlie floor of tlie Senate I hope they will not repeat it. If they do repeat it, take my word for it, I will give them as good as the// send." THE UOKUON-A-ONKI.INU nimi l’L. TV. Ill this issue we supplement tlie brief rejHirt of the Southern press agent witli all we can glean on the subject. All tlie accounts show that Gen. Gordon acts witli that‘dignity, courtesy and true courage that lias hnraoterized ills life. He simply re pelled tlie insolence mid arrogant impertinence of the blustering bully of New York, and refused to bandy words in tin* Senate chamber. His conduct meets tlie approval of ull ex cept some parties, perhaps, in Atlan ta, who desire to defeat his re-elec tion, but their effort will prove una vailing. As lias been stated tlie mutter lias been settled. The resolu tions adopted by tin* Senate have liet*n published. They merely stute the “misunderstandings” liuve been explained and arranged satisfactorily to |iarties and Senate. The high es teem and admiration felt in the South for Gen. Gordon has been increased, if such an eflfcct be possible, by this atliiir. He maintained Ids own dig nity while upholding (lie honor of ids State. Mr. Conkling is working hard for tlie Republican nomination for Presi dent. He is adopting tin* violent tactics of Blaine, and a more intenser animosity than Morton. He hopes to reach the White House with his jieucock strut by endeavoring to re awaken tlie bitterness of sectional bates. He would dig up tin* bloody shirt and llaunt it if Ids legs were not so long that he would cut a pitiable sight as u "rag toter.” Long Bonus For Savings.-^The Senate Finance Committee have con sidered favorably, and will nqiort tlie Hill of Mr. Wallace, of Pennsylvania, to authorize a long bond for invest ment of savings. The bill provides that in lieu of the 4 per cent, bonds authorized by act of July 14, 1870, the Secretary of the Treasury may issue $100,000,000 coujion bonds of denomi nation of $25, $50 and $100, redeem able in coin in sixty years from date, bearing4 percent, interest, payable semi-annually,and exempt from taxa tion. These coupon bonds are to lie made pnyable to tlie onler of iiersons who shall pay money for them, and are to lie transferable only by assign ment. The coupons are to be paya ble in United States legal tender notes, or coin, at tlie option of tlie United Htates. All national lianks are made money depositors for the payment of these coupous, uml are required to pay them uiion production of tlie bonus to widen tlie coupons laid been attached. Tlie bonds are to lie sold for coin or legnl tender notes at tlie rate at which they may stand in the market. An amend ment will be offered to tills bill in tlie Henate, providing that they eun be pu "chased for their legal tender , ■ ♦ ♦ * HOMJTMKMM »JI.1ECH FOE CAPMTAI.. Tin son from Noalorn lffarrfa and La mar on Ilia Proposition to Mead Menu- tor Gordon to Europe. From the Xashville (Torn.) American, Dec.7.] Secretary McLaughlin, of tlie Mer chants’ Exchange, has received tlie following letters, which will be acted upon by tlie members in a duy or two: U. H. Senate Chamber, 1 Washington, Nov. 21, 1877. / To the Chamber of Commerce, Nash ville, Tenn.: Gentlemen—1 herewith transmit tlie copy of a note from Hon. L. Q. C. Lamar to Hon. John B. Gordon, which explains itself. I agree with Col. Lamar in the opinion that the interests of the South can be greatly promoted by sending a proper special commissioner to Europe, who is identified and familiar with these interests, and who eun make tlie various resources of tin* Houtli thoroughly and well under stood. General John B. Gordon, of Georgia, is willing to accept tills mis sion ut tlie liunds of the boards of trade and business men of tlie Soutli if they desire it, and to enter upon its duties in the coming spring or early summer; and I hazard nothing in saying that the interests of the Houtli will he ably represented by him. in tlie event of his election. He wishes no compensation, hut if this duty is assigned him by. the various boards of trade of tlie Hohtli. they must as sess themselves to the extent of rais ing an ample fund to defray expenses. I submit the mutter to your consid eration, and such action ns you may set* proper to trfkc in tlie premises. Respectfully, Isham G. Harris. SENATOR LAMAR’S LETTER. Will Aim’s Hotel, Nov. 11. My Dear General : 1 have culled here to see you about a mutter of some importance to our people. I intended to talk it over, and as you are not ut home I leave tills memorandum on your table, so thut you muy give it some thought before 1 shall give you tlie talk. A very intelligent traveler, one who lias" occupied very conspicuous posi- tioiis abroad, Iiuh just urged upon me tlie importance of liuvlng in Europe a distinguished mun in the interests of our cotton relations there. He says what we have frequently heard, that European cnpitnl (sick of North ern and Western investments in mines anil railroads) Ih looking South ward, and that attention is being di rected more especially to investments of cotton-spinning. Tlie great draw back Is our political perturbations and the supposed liability of our Southern communities to arbitrary interference of Federal authority. The benignant and Just “Policy" of tho President is very reassuring to those apprelien sions, and u public man from the Houtli, connected witli Southern poli ties, could, If lie were accredited by tlie proper business men of tlie Houtli, by going to Europe and making tlie proper efforts, give a great impetus to tlie tendency above alluded to. He was so complimentary us to suggest thut 1 go in Unit capacity. But 1 happen to know thut 1 am not the man. While in Europe I was con sulted every day by Mason, Slidell, and our fiiiunciul agents in London mid Paris. Tlie greatest obstacle in tlie way of tlie linancial recognition of our Confederacy was tlie fact that our President was from Mississippi, to which tlie odium of repudiation was attached. I remember the chief man on ’Change told Mr. Mason; “Sir, you cannot float your loan unless your Con federacy disavows the repudiation of Mississippi.” Now, if 1 were to go there, my time would be more occu pied in explaining tills matter of re pudiation than in pushing tlie enter prise. Why not you go ? You are the very man. You can enter upon it witli energy and enthusiasm; and then you come from a State which lias a line credit, and is already (out side of New England) the third State of the Union in tlie number of its luanufnetorles, and perhaps tlie most K *rous of any State in the Union condition of its manufacturing interests. Think of tills thing, uml write to some of your friends in Col umbus, Augusta, Savannah, Macon, and Atlanta. I lnvve friends in Mis sissippi to whom 1 will recommend you, and I can, through Trescot, put you in communication with Charles ton people. is not Buck, of New Orleans, a great friend of yours ? Write to him. Lamar. — ♦ The Moorland Rice Plantation, containing 400 acii**, was lately sold at auction in Charleston, for $14,700— $80.75 per acre. GORDON AND CONKLING. Tlie following specials to the (feu- rier-Journal may aid in tlie explana tion of the Gordon-Oonkling affair : Special Telegraphic Oarretpuadence uf the Courier-Journal.] Washington, December 13.—Tlie contest of yesterday in executive ses sion on tlie New York nominations is much discussed to-day, and there* is great regret expressed that any Democratic Senators should have been found wiiiing to extend aid ami com fort to so bitter a reviler and enemy of tiie (Southern people us ltoscoe Conkling, and in order to do this eat tiieir own words against tlie infamous tenure-of-ofllce law, which all Demo crats have insisted was unconstitu tional and revolutionary. Some most inaccurate statements have been pub- iished touching tlie action of Sena tors on these nominations. Fpr in stance, Beck and Garland are repre sented as voting witli Conkling, and Jones (of Florida) ns dodging tlie vote. Tills Is false. All these gentlemen voted to confirm tlie nominations, and are opposed to Conkling. Jones and Beck justly regurd him us one of tlie worst and most dangerous men in public life, and Beck made in the Democratic caucus a most indignant speech at tlie very idea of allowing him tlie mastery of the New York Custom-house in order to promote ills re-eiection to the .Senate. A part of tlie debate was very heated and lier- sonal. It devolved on (Senator Gor don, ns a member of the commit tee on commerce, to defend the nominations, anil to expose the cor ruptions of the New York custom house. In doing this he had a hot personal encounter, liotli with Conk ling and Blaine, tlie latter of whom is seeking to overcome Conkling’s persistent scorn by zealous service. Blaine seized upon all allusion of Gen. Gordon's to the late Howell Cobb, of Georgia, to make an insolent and offensive reflection upon his memory, which was properly re pelled. ' Conkling said that tlie Hec- returd of tho Treasury hud refused ull information to tlie committee in re- S iect to the causes of the removals. en. Gordon showed thut tlie .Secre tary hail not only offered to come be fore tlie committee, but had also of fered to supply tlie reports of tlie Jay commission on tlie New York custom house abuses, which proved Arthur's “Inefficiency and extravagance. It is reported to-day tlie President is Arm, und will not surrender to Conkling, but will send in other nominations ut an early day. It will qamaln to be seen whether Democratic Senators will continue to obey Mr. Conkling’s behests, and regurd the New York custom house as his own peculiar property, to be used aS a political machine. At present Conkling is au tocrat of the situation. The North and Sovth Rail road.—Columbus has another oppor- tunity to secure this road and extend it. Surely slie will not fail for tlie want of a small degree of enterprise. A subscription of forty thousand dol lars, iNiyuhle in easy installments will purchase tlie road and extend it to Chlpley, which is 32 miles from Co lumbus. The advantages of tlie line are apparent to all, and have often been depicted. Tlie enhanced busi ness of one year to Columbus by building the line across the mountain would more than repay the invest ment. With tlie terminus at Chipley tlie extension to the Georgia road will be but u question of time; and then we will liuve a cnni|ietlng line and Ih* removed from the oppressive and un just discriminations of tlie Central Company.

Conkling’s strut and Insolence in the Henate lias Increased since bis recent victory on tlie New Y'ork nomina tions. A sharp altercation occurred In tlie executive session this afternoon between ltint and Gen. Gordon, of Georgia, which muy lead to grave personal consequences. • The lattei' .Senator was on the floor, calling for tlie report which the committee on Commerce htul directed Mr. Spencer, of Alabama, to make on the nomina tion of (Smith as Collector of Mobile, and which that worthy has Been endeavoring to suppress, in order to prevent the ease from coming to a vote. Conkling came to the rescue of tils henchman by calling out in loud und peremptory tones, "Go on with tlie calendar." Gen. Gordon rebuked this interruption by remark ing that “he was glad that the Senate wus conducting tlie public business, and that the Senator from New York had no right to give orders to the Vice President.” Conkling, affecting not to hear this remark, rose und asked the Senator from Georgia what lie suit!, whereupon General Gordon repeated his remark. Mr. Conkling replied that “If the Senator from Georgia stated that lie was givin; orders to the Vice President, he state what was not true." General Gordon at once re-stated what he had said, whereupon Mr. Conkling repeated, again speaking hypothetically, that “If tlie Senator stated that he had given orders to the Vice President, he stated what was not true.” “Very well,” said Gordon, “we will settle that.” “Yes,” said Conkling, “we will settle here." “No,” retorted Gordon, with em phasis, “we will not settle it here.” The scene was of course highly ex citing. At a later hour of the day Judge Tliurmun undertook to play the part of peace-maker, and made some remarks assuming that the two Senators had misunderstood one an other, and that no personal reflection was intended by. Mr. Conkling; but it would seem that this paciflcexplnna- tion of theutlhirhad not been authoriz ed by either party,for both parties were profoundly silent. It is reported to night thut Mr. Conkling has private ly stated that he intended no reflec tion upon General Gordon’s veracity, hut up to this time the affair Is unsettled. General Gordon lias re fused to see reporters who have called on him, or to furnish any statement on the subject, but tlie aliove is derived from authentic sources. It is pretty certain that Mr. Conkling’s insulting; tom* toward Democratic (Senators wil . not be permitted to go on in this case without a check. General Gordon is by nature pacific, but is as resolute as he is uniformly courteous to all per sons who are gentlemen. There are reports late to-night, that a message lias been already sent by General Gordon to Mr. Conkling, but my in formation is that this story is prema ture. The mutter lias, however passed out of General Gordon’s lutiid Into that of an experienced friend, whose character is an abundant guar antee that Mr. Conkling will soon be called on to disclaim any puiqiosa of insult, or to accept the consequence. HOW IT ORIGINATED. Washington Special to Cincinnati Enquirer,] This afternoon, in the executive session of the Henate, tlie nomination of one Smith to lie Collector of In teriuil Revenue at Mobile was readied Senators Gordon and Hill both plead ed with the Senate to reject the now ination, because the nominee had been one of the most earnest In libel ing tlie South, and had created In ids imagination und set forth a iiumbe of Ku-Klux stories calculated to de fame tlie citizens in the locality where he lived. Conkling und Blaine took up tlie cudgel for tlie nomination, and Blaine, In reply to the charge of defamation through Ku-KIux reports, said that these reports, when Inves tigated, generally turned out to be much worse than represented. Gor don said inasmuch as both Hill and himself opposed the nomination, and it was an appointment ill a South era Stute, the Senate ought to ex tend to the Southern .Senators the courtesy of rejecting it. Bluine asked how it was they now asked a courte sy which they did not extend to the Senator from New York in voting; upon the Nit York apiiotaMOant* Gordon replied the Senators;from New York were divided on tn»qiie»* tion of their confirmation*. and they could not follow tlie lead of both ; whereat a number of Republicans brake out in a laugh. A vote was taken on tlie nomination under con sideration, and to the dlsconilltilre of Hill ami Gordon it was conflowed. Tlie calendar was then proceeded With, and another nomination was taken up. Gordon made an effort to haven report read which Spencer was suppressing lienring on tlie case, when Conkling in ills seat said: “Oh, go on witli the calendar! ’ ’ Gordon,with some vehemence of langtiAge, said: “See tlie New York Senator giving his orders to the Vice' PTeffldeBt!” Conkling did not quite catch, the re mark at first and asked him to repeat it. "I suid,” retorted Gordon, r ‘see tlie New York Senator giving his or ders to the Vice President!” Conk ling, quite excited, arose in his seat und said; “If the Senator says I am giving orders to the Vice President, he says that which is not true." Thur man, apprehending a scene, came forward as a peace-maker, and en deavored to restrain Gordon from taking any further notice of tlie matter. Gordon paid no atten tion to him, but said, in an ex cited strain: “Very well: we will settle that!” Yes,” said Conkling. “we will settle it here!” “No,” re plied Gen. Gordon, we will not settle It here!” Thurman then made a speech in the effort of conciliation, and gave both the opportunity to retreat from their bellicose attitude. He said no doubt each misunderstood tlie other^and a satisfactory explana tion could be reached. Both Gordon and Conkling listened attentively to Thurman, but remained quiet,' and there the matter dropped. Gen. Gor don to-night has kept closely to his room at WllHard’a Hotel, and talks with much reluctance concerning tlie difficulty. He said late to-night: "Of course, I cannot tell you what wus done in executive session. I don’t like to talk about these personal matters; but, of course, there is a way to settle them.” Conkling, too, re fuses tosay any thing about ^ftematter. When usked how he would treat a.chal- U-nge if he received one, he said, with u sneer: “I will wait till I receive it.” Republicans who sympathize witli Conkling seem pleased (;liat Uip diffi culty lias come uliout, as it IS hoped that tlie incident will arouse sectional feeling in the North and thus help the dying Republican party to get on its legs again.
