DMTH or URN. k. n. CHILTON.
Duties are ours ; events are God’s.
To the cliivalroti* cniniiiaiiiler of the
army of Northern Virginia, General
R. K. Lee, duty was the "noblest
word in the language." No less was
the prineiple shown In liiscliiefof
stall', General 11. H. Chilton, who
dropped dead in Ills nltlce in tins
elly last afternoon. The last hours
of tile two whose lives lmd been so
closely united were similar. Each
lied suddenly, and happened to be
alone, though friends were close by,
and each to the last was engaged in
the performance of duly. Their
spirits are again together.
General Chilton was a type of the
Virginia gentleman. He honored
his native Stale which lias given
birth to so much truegreatness. Edu
cated at West l’olnt, lie Imbibed the
spirit andfrnnknessof thesoldier. He
graduated at that Institution and was
assigned as Lieutenant in the cavalry
regiment of which Gen. Leo was one
of the captains. In the Mexican war
lie acquired distinction and advance
ment and the glory which brave in
telligence desires and which Is fully
worth the toll and sacrifice.
Ill the piping times of pence lie was
engaged in tlie paymaster’s depart
ment of the I'nited Htutcs army, unit
for several years had headquarters at
San Antonio, Texas.
When Virginia seceded, true to his
Southern Induing and education, lie
offered her his sword, and with some
difficulty reached Richmond, where,
in a short time, lie was made the
Adjutant General and chief of stafT
of General Lee. His history since
then Ih comprised in that of the
army of Northern Virginia and ids
name is fully known in that illus
trious record. He was among the
most faithful of the true. He sueri-
liced much by leaving the old army,
for he was on the direct line to the
highest promotion.
Since the revolution ho lias quietly
attended to Ids business as President
of the Columbus Manufacturing
Company. He was "a modest and
unassuming gentleman, and seldom
spoke of self, and the distinguished
associations of ids life. We asked
him once why he did not give
Ids testimony in the discussions
and diil'erenecs in vogue regard
ing tho campaigns with which
lie was so familiar. Ho replied that
ho desired no newspaper notoriety,
and Ids evidence would be contra
dicted us others had been and this
would require rejoinders, and lie pre
ferred to be silent. To a principle of
honor he was sensitive to a fault.
He died honored and esteemed hy
all. The intelligence will create a
feeling of mourning throughout our
Southland and to the oilleers of the
old army, many of whom linveshown
tlieir appreciation since the late revo
lution.
The remains will be carried to Vir
ginia to be interred. At the sugges
tion of Gov. Smith, Capt. Reese
Crawford, with (our men from each
of tho threo military companies of
Columbus, will, asp military escort,
guard the body to Richmond and
there deliver it to the authorities.
Huch a proceeding is generally ap
proved.
Ho was one whom all tho world
might gaze upon and say, “(Ills was
a man," for lie illustrated the
thought: "I)o the duty which lies
nearest to thee, which thou knowest
to he a duty. The second duty will
already have become clearer.”

ant time and op|iortunity to add to
those achieved, and so act as to In
crease their popularity. All of us at

the by-gones.

Some of our journals think the best
way to preserve lhe Democratic or
ganization is tobeeoutluually misin
terpreting tiiemotives of Uiesn-calied
1 udepcintents who have won. When
these gentlemen are acting with mu-
parly ami lighting against the com
mon enemy, our opinion is Hint they
Hhotild have os much credit as any
one else. It lias been proven in more
than one race that the Independent
was a better Democrat Ilian Ids op
ponent. Home of those who tiro con
tinually lull ping on'tlie “organized”
are endeavoring by tlieir course to
create dissensions, and io widen the
distaneo lietwecn those who sup
port all the plans and pur|ioses of
party. Differences are not healed hy
constant Intuits, by* ever dwelling
the past. Two Independents, so
styled, were elected to Congress
Georgia. Tlieir records ns Demo
crats were unimpenched. They re
eelved a very heavy Democratic sup
port. We advocated tlio claims of
one because we believed they were
truer than that of the one who r<-
celved the regular nomination of a
convention held to defeat the other,
and which the latter, knowing its
objeet, woiiM not go before. Among
the very foremost in our parly in
this seel loll favored and wished Ids
success, for they believed him an
able and faithful representative, who
lmd demonstrated n sound platform
in his public career, mid around
Whom clustered not a single doubtful
as-oehitioii. He is now acting with
the Democratic party, i s lie l as ever
done. Why not then render to him
mid all others praise instead of eett-
deavor to alienate in-
Ot’R STATE I'BEniT.
We saw yesteday a proof of the
new four per cent. Georgia bonds
known as the Garrard bonds. They
are very pretty*, and being of the
size of bank bills can very well cir
culate as currency according Io the
option of the holder. They before
have been fully described. Wail
street once threatened Georgia witli a
withdrawal of her bonds from the
hoards. The State paid no attention
to the so-called money kings, and
we now And them ready to place
tier four percent, bonds. So much for
preserving credit, and ignoring and
forever forbidding the payment of
fraudulent issues for the lieneiit of a
ring of adventurers. The measure
lias been so successful that in a few
years lienrly tlio whole bonded debt
of the State can be funded at tills low
interest.
Tho United Slates, Huston and
Georgia alone liilvc thus fnr been aide
to place obligations bearing such a
rate. The plan arose in Georgia in
the brain of one of the youngest
members of the Legislature, Hon. L.
F. Garrard, of lids city. It required
brains, boldness and nerve to propose
such a measure, but lie did it, mid
after encountering much doubt and
opposition the (till passed the General
Assembly. The author lius won the
plaudits which belong to success.
Failure would have resulted lu ridi
cule. The move 1ms succeeded the
highest expectation.
These name bonds may yet play an
active part in currency circulation
coming from the bank vaults when
funds nre greatly needed, nnd retiring
when money becomes easy. They
will thus become a barometer of ttic
state of trade.
The credit of our State is a tiling
to lie proud of. Iler oldest bonds are
considerably above par and difficult
to procure, and tlio 4 per cents, arc at
par. One of the railroads she owns
brings to the treasury $25,000 a
month, and is worth almost sufficient
to puy her whole bonded debt.
The latest statistics sliow Hint tlio
debts of the Staton of the Union amount
ill tlio aggregate to $345,197,000. Mas
sachusetts takes tho lead, and is fol
lowed lu a descending scale by Ala

York, Toniicssoo, l’emisylvanla, and
Louisiana, eaoh of wliieh owes more
than $20,000,000. West Virginia, Mis
souri, Ocbrgia nnd Arkansas owe ma
terially less, although the amount Is
$10,000,000 each, while all tlio
other States fall below tlio latter lip'
ll com. Many municipal debts exceed
tlio State dobt.

One morning Leo XIII. was about

of t.'-irdiirtil Asq'uiui'e death reached
tiie Vatican, and the Hope, handing
to Starbini Ids pocket hook, requested
him to read aloud to those around the

Tlmn, breaking the silence, he said :
"Had Him salt I .cell scattered on tiie

the war should tie forgotten. There
was one thing, however, which could
not lie forgotten, and that was the
valor and patriotism of those who
fought for ihe Union In tiie hour of
its direst peril. Nor would the brave
ry. earnestness, and, he might say,
loyality to tiie cause which they
espoused, of those who fought on the
otlier side, lie forgotten.
Tiie land was dotted all over with
graves of soldiers nnd no claim was
made for the land tints used. Chnnj-
bersburg ami many parts of Pennsyl
vania had suffered damages through
the occupation of Confederate troops
just as tiie belligerent territory had
been occupied by Federal troops, but
no compensation had been allowed
for that. He had voted for the Wil
liam and Mary College hill, and if he
had been present lie would have voted
for the Theological Seminary bill,
because Ijis rule, us a commander of
forces during the war, had been not to
make war on religious, educational,
or eleemosynary institutions, and
whenever ft became necessary to
occupy them, to take cure that tiie
least possible damage was done, and
generally to make remuneration on
the spot. As to the cotton fund wliieh
IihiI been set apart for the payment of
claims upon it, lie would voto for re
ferring all such claims to tiie Court
of Claims, and to have them
paid to tiie extent of that fund.
Loyal men had been injured in tho
South, so had they been in the North.
Loyal men hud met losses in tlio
South, so they had in lhe North to
tlio amount or untold millions. Loynl
men and women had suffered hard
ships in tlio South, so they had in
the North. They had both mourned
tlieir llrst born "dead. It had been
grievous for both sections, nnd they
both ought to be contented now tlmt
they had come together as one coun
try and ono government. Hut that
bad blood should he stirred up and
old memories revived, and o'd sores
opened and old contentions revived
in tills House, over this class of
claims for mutters which should be
bygone on the ono side as much as
tiie grave of the soldier was bygone
on both sides forever, lie deprecated
with every thought of patriotism and
every hope of country that resided
within his heurt. Why should that
class of claims be pressed? Why
should gentlemen on tlio otlier side
press them? It was certainly mag
nanimous for them to do so, because
they came in and said: "This man
was against us ; this man was not on
our side; this man was opposed to
tiie prevailing aye, to what seemed at
that time the unanimous sentiment
of tiie people of his vicinity and ills
State and his section, and we come
here and ask this for him, although
lie was against us."
Rut for every one there that had
been actually loyal to theNortli, who
came there with his claim, there were
dozens, if not hundreds, who had not
actually been loyal, but who were
able to prove loyalty arising from ju
nction or cowardice. That was, they
did nothing/or lhe South, and, there
fore, tlicw were supposed to lie loyal
to the North. If lie believed the evi
dence by wliieh loyalty was now
proved he 'would have difficulty in
imagining where and how the South
had recruited its armies. Those ar
mies had been recruited hy all the
able-bodied men in the South, and
with men that were not able-bodied,
either on account of old age or youth.
How did it happen now that every
body that lost a dollar during the war
Arils loyal to tiie Union. He wi s
willing that tho States should be put
upon tiie same ground that lhe fath
ers of the Republic lmd put them
upon in tiie war of the Revolution,
by assuming all their debts for rais
ing and recruiting troops, nnd after
that let no claim arise out of the war,
except the claims of maimed and dis
abled soldiers; and with that deter
mination on tiie part of the peqplc of
the country, both Nortli and South,
the time would not ho far distant
when thefeelingof brotherhood would
take into /he charge of the Govern
ment tlio maimed and disabled sol
diers of the Southern army, remem
bering their courage, their steadfast
ness, and their gallantry, and for
getting the mistaken judgment
which made them light upon the
side they did. They would be re
membered as American soldiers who
lmd given great honor and praise to
American bravery, and it would be
forgotten that they lmd fought in a
mistaken cause.
Mr. Butler—I repeat that whenever
the question of the depletion of the
Treasury by those war claim* is over,
I think that tiie pity, the human! y
of tiie North will take cure of the
maimed men of tho war, and (if you
wish trfknowit) l see no more rea
son why a Con federate soldier, maim
ed and crippled in the honest dis
charge of what lie believed to lie his
duty, should not be pensioned than
why a (.'onfederate General, who
honestly believed he was doing his
duty, should he put into a Republi
can Cabinet. [General applause and
clapping of hands on the Democratic
side. ]
Mr. Keifor remarked that tlio fair
inference from what Mr. Butler had
said was that lie favored put ting Con
federates into the Cdiinet.
Mr. Butler—I have not said that I
was in favor of it. nor do I think that
the country Iras yet ootrto up to it;
lint when we have withdrawn all
causes of difference nobody from the.
North will object to a Confederate
rieln; io the Cabinet any more than
from humanity to pension Confeder
ate sold ei's,
Mr. Aiken, of South Carolina, re
minded him that the leading men of
tile Confederate army were graduates
of We.-t i'oint, and Hint tlio sstne ob
jection would therefore lie against
that academy.
Mr Blackburn (Dem., Ivy.) inquir
ed who luvl ever asked Congress to
pay u dollar on any Southern claim
that was not for the benefit of one
who had, as a eondllieu precedent,
proved Ids inyaily Io the Union and
Ids dislovaltv to the Confederacy?
trying to elevntc a Confederate
(meaning Blackburn himself) to the
Speakership of the House?
Mr. Blackburn—I hope the gentle
man himself will sliow that good
taste. [Laughter.] The South did
not ask for tiie pensioning of her
cripple soldiers. She had staked
her all on her convictions and had
lost. She had not complained and
would never in the future "complain.
She bore her losses and simply pro
tested that It was neither generous
nor kind, nor manly, nor merciful (o
drag her luto this question and to
make her the football of the passions
of men who seemed to havo at heart
tho serving of partisan purposes rath

11c good. [Applause on tho Demo
cratic side.]
No action was reached upon tiie
bill.
Tin English Codon Trade.
We have before us tiie annual re
port of Messrs. Wntts A Co., Liver
pool cotton merchants, from which
we draw the following particulars
respecting tiie cotton trade during
tiie year 1878. That year, the report
says, was a most disastrous one to
nearly ever]* department of the cot
ton trade. The year opened with a
decline In prices that continued up
to May. The Russian wnr and Eng
lish perplexities In connection with
it were the principal causes of this
unfavorable state of prices. That is,
American planters had to suffer be
cause, instead of manufacturing their
cotton at home and selling the pro
duct in every country where trade
exists, they let England have the raw
material, and so they have to hoar
tlieir share of England's blunders and
quarrels. On tlio Hth of May mid
dlings were down to 55, tiie lowest
point touched since 1854. In June,
the highest figure of the year was
reached, 6 11-lUd. In October
tiie Glasgow City Bank failed,
followed by tiie failures of East
Indian and other iirnis.tlio old Rock
dale bank suspended, then tlio C'le-
donimi bank; after which came tiie
crash of the West of England Bank.
A panic ensued; business in Manches
ter came almost to a stand. About
the same time tiie estimates of lhe
American crop was raised, 5,250,000
nnd even 5.500,000 being tiie admitted
figures; also, a strike ut Oldham ro-
luced the consumption 5,000 or 0,000
bales a week. For the English diffi
culties American cotton planters had
to suffer again, middling cotton sink
ing to 4-Jd.tlie lowest price for twenty-
four years. This reduction, it will lie
remarked, was almost wholly due to
English influences. Even the high
estimates of the crop wore of English
manufacture, and bad afterward to
be reduced. The present Liverpool
e-timateof Ibis season’s crop Is 8,*
000,000 to 5,250,000; not long since
5,500,000 was the favorite ligtirc.
Bombay shipments have rapidly
fallen off' during the Inst three
years, wliieh is partly owing to un
favorable seasons, and greatly to the
fact that India is doing what Ameri
cans should do on a latger scale—
manufacturing for herself. The
prospects for the coming year do not
promise any better supply of India
cotton. Tho year's Egyptian crop is
small, and tiie price is l|d. higher
titan a year ago, while Orleans cot
ton is 15-KM.' lower than it was a
year ago. Lower prices of cotton
have checked receipts front Brazil
■and tiie West Indies. Assuming
this season’s American crop to tie
5,000,600, the Egyptian 230,000,
the Indian 50,000 more, and Brazil
and ml noc places 85,000 bales less
than the same time last year; esti
mating all, it would leave a stuck in
Europe, at the end of next Sep en -
ber, of only 337,000 hales, or little
more than half of what there was
last year, when a famine was escaped
only by the unusually early ripening
of the American crop, which we can
not expect to be the case the next
time. More than 5,300,000 bales
would bo wanted from America to
give Europe tiie snme stock next
September that it had last.
