DAILY ENQUIRER - SUN; COLUMBUS GEORGIA, TUESDAY MORNING, .TUNE 29, ISM. jhc House That Zach Built Captured by the Democrats, M it limit a Pont—Only Oho Proxlilont Hli'i'O Ailwlnlutratlon Sever Was (ritli'lspil— in I'.rii «r Monuments. j^w York Herald. Washington, June 26.—A large brown stone house on H street, near Fourteenth, ii.-diiv had a gilded sign added to its exte- tiiir adornment. The words thereon are:— • ■ ,|, inoeratic congressional executive com mittee.” 1 could not avoid reflecting on the grief that this label would cause the •s,.ill of the lamented Zoeharinh Chandler if it tinds time in the abode of heavenly bliss tc dwell upon earthly events. This new home of the democratic congressional com mittee was built by the sturdy republican W nr horse. At the time of its erection it u us one of the handsomest residences in jtie capital city. Now, alas! it is in the hands of the enemy. The chairman of the present committee, Senator Kenna, accep ted the trust with considerable hesitation, Put he now appears to bear his honors comfortably. It is to be hoped that the e xperienees of the next campaign will not sour his blood. NO POST AS YET. George A. Post, now a private citizen of Pennsylvania, was the secretary of this im portant political organization during the last presidential contest. His was the bold and audacious mind that conceived the preparation of a startling campaign ‘pamphlet entitled, “Open the Books.” ■Tiie literary work is said to have been done by diaries E. Creey. The demoralizing effect of this screed upon the republican party was tremendous. The charge was boldly made that there was a deficiency of f200J)00,000 in the United States treasury. More than live hundred thousand copies of this pretty fiction were scattered throughout the country. It hud a decided influence upon the result, ns the leaders of both parties know. Well, when the rewards of victory came to he apportioned, Mr. Post naturally anticipated a neat halo in the form of a public trust. To his friends he expressed a preference for the assistant secretaryship of the interior, but when that berth was bestowed upon Mr. Jenks, a fellow Penn sylvanian, he was unhappy to tile verge of a slmdder. Since that day he has not had any greater affection for the administra tion than it has had for him. Mr. Cleve land believes in truth. A RARE EXCEPTION, TRULY. “An epidemic of monument building threatens the country,” said a prominent congressman to-day. “The ex-presidents are all to have memorials. We have de cided to erect another one to Washington at Newburg. A movement has been start ed here by a wealthy citizen to place statues of Calhoun, Webster and Clay in three of the public squares. Where will it stop?” “Speaking of honoring the memory of dead presidents, I am ready to bend a list to order a statue of David R. Atchison, who died iuMissouri on the 2Hth of last Jan uary,” said a western democratic senator who had joined the group. “Who was he ?” “Indeed! He was president of this na tion for exactly twenty-four hours.” The senator was right. The term of j President Polk expired with the 3d of Mjirch, 1849, and the 4th of March in that vear falling on Sunday President-elect Tay lor was not willing to take the oatli of office upon that day. The latter’s inaugu ration did not take place, therefore, until noon on Monday, the 5th. Senator Atchi son being then the presiding officer of the chamber, and having the natural succes sion in the absence of president or vice- president, was actually chief executive of tiie republic during Sunday, March 4, 1849. Air. Hayes, by the way, was not so timid about taking the oath of office on Sunday. It was administered to him in John Sher man’s house on K street. But to return to thejgroup of statesmen : “Why does Atchison especially deserve a monument?” asked the congressman. “Because,” answered the senator naively, j “he was the only chief executive whose administration was not criticized. Poor . old George himself had his character torn to shreds, you know.” A distinction in favor of “President” Atchison, surely, that entitles the senator’s suggestion to public consideration. By all .means let the president who gave universal satisfaction have a monument. THE LESSON OF IT. During the second Napoleonic dynasty the American minister sent the names of several distinguished countrymen whom 1 he desired to be presented to the emperor at the Tuileries. An “imperial” clerk called to ask “the quality” of the persons. He was informed by the minister that all ; of them would be admitted to a presiden- i tial levee. The messenger vanished and no reply was ever received. The only requisite for audience with the president | of this nation is that the visitors shall be ' men and women. At the recent public re ception, a society queen tells me, a lady j whose grandfather was a worthy drayman ; I though she now affects the blue blood oi a Castilian grandee) was in high dudgeon all next day because she had observed her chambermaid iu the line some distance in front of where she stood. This was very shocking. But in the course of time this maid’s granddaughter may turn up her nose at the descendants of my lady and thus square the account of blood. There’s food for comfort in this. Nothing that one can see in Washington so well teaches the real meaning of a government by and for the people as a public reception at the white house. SUMMEK DULLNESS from D1 hms‘ en l t dr >' S oods - generally" from both jobbers and agents. On some lines of bleached and brown cottons the advance is from } to 4 cent per yard. Crude petroleum, too, has advanced on a decline in the average new production daily, and hog products con- ' tendency toward higher figures noted last week. There is also some im provement in raw cotton. But on the long list of remaining staples there is no con spicuous gain. Breadstuff!} are low in i:rice. W neat crop prospects continue ■ AVorahle, Stocks arc fair, and shippers ire taking with moderation. The gain in 'O. 2 red cash wheat at New York on this •ec I s 4 , cent ’ and on corn 2 cents. I here is no better demand for iron at the • ast, and southern pig is again pushing its way into the hands of new customers.

'h iding of Hi,- I'nrm,-rs - Chili ut Ylllula—An Ire (renin Supper -Personal Notes, special to Enquirer-Sun. Seale, Ala. June 2S.—The farmers’ club met at Villula Saturday. The ques tion discussed was. “How to Keep Up in terest in the Club?” A number of very line speeches were made. I am glad to say that the club seems to lie in a flourish ing condition. Most of the leading farm ers in this section belong to the club. Among other things the dinner Saturday was highly enjoyable. Invitations are out for an ice cream sup per to-morrow night, to be given at the residence of Col. Ben. Jennings, compli mentary to visiting young ladies. Our gun club had a practice ball shoot ing Friday. Waddell made tiie best record, breaking 12 balls in 12 shots. Be low is the score: Boykin’s Team—W. J. Boykin 7, Wad dell 12, Ware 10, Pitts 3, Greene 3—35. Lindsay’s Team—-Lindsay 7, Strong 10, Uuerry S } Jennings 5, Bellamy 4—34. The Ciceronians will have a public de bate at the academy Friday night. The query is: “Should a representative he gov erned by the will of his constituents?” All are invited to attend. Quarterly meeting for this circuit will be held at Hatchechubbe Saturday and Sunday. Charley Mayes, of Enon, spent Sunday here. Dr. Wooldridge, of Crawford, was in town Saturday. He reports all quiet in his section. Miss Minnie Lewis has returned from near Crawford, where she has been teach ing school. ♦ Miss Katie Belle Waddell, of Union Springs, is visiting Mrs. W. A. Bellamy. Nothing of interest has occurred siuce the hanging last Friday. Rev. D. C. Crook preached an interest ing sermon at the Methodist church yes terday. FACTS FROM FORTSON.

New Orleans forms a noteworthy exception, as the manufac turing industries there are busy and the crop prospect is favorable. At leading centers there is considerable con fidence in the prospect of fall trade, grocery, dry goods, hardware, and dealers in other lines looking ahead to increased demands alter the close of the dull season. Domestic money markets are generally quiet, with offerings in excess of demand. At St. Louis, Kansas City, St. Joseph and ililwa tkee money is in more active request from manufacturers, jobbers, and in some instances from the wool dis tricts. It is noticeable that collections have improved at the southwestern points named indicating a freer movement of products. The New York stock market has been less buoyant, though the control of thebull cliques see ins none tiie less strong. Unfa vorable events, the Chicago switchmen's strike and extensive rate cutting in the northwest, make their task difficult, and whenever left to themselves pi ices show a decline. Bonds are very strong and active. Money is plentiful, call’ loans averaging 2 per cent. Commercial paper is dull and scarce. Exchange is strong, _ and gold is shipped in limited quantities. Wool is the only staple which has shown any marked advance from the extreme low level of prices generally. It is 2(q3u higher at seaboard than on June 1.. Mill purchases, as well as speculative buy ing, have helped this, although the Lon don sales, with a gain of '20(iy25c in prices, have had a good deal to do with it. Woolen goods are stronger in consequence, and there has been a noticeable gain in TOPICS FROM TALBOT. lli'io) lUins uml thr (’nip Prospect—Tin* Polltl* nil I'liiililrnn Hulling—Portion in tin* Leml The County Snliil fur Grimes—Other News Notes. Correspondence Enquirer-Sun. Talbot County, Ga., June 28.—One of the greatest rainfalls that we have wit nessed in a long time fell in the eastern portion of this county on yesterday, and as the lands have been too wet for almost three weeks past, we have serious fears for | great injury to bottom lands that are in cultivation and the entire cotton crop. ] Farmers are behind with their operations and badly in the grass, so to speak, as it has been impossible to work by reuson of j so much rain. Upland corn we think is l the best in years, and where cotton has. been worked it is looking well. Politics and wet weather is the all-absorb- i ing theme with our pieople, the gubernato- ! rial canvass predominating by a very de cided majority. General Gordon will se cure the delegation front this county on i the 17tli of next month by the primary system, if reports from the different sec tions of the county are at all reliable. We fiave not seen so much enthusiasm since , the war as is exhibited by the Gordon men, and as General Gordon is announced to ! speak in Talbolton on the 6th of July, it will prove one of tiie greatest ovations that has taken place since the war. Circu- | lars announcing that General Gordon will address the voters of the county at Talbot- ton have been posted at cross-roads and upon every suitable place that will attract our attention. He will be met at Bostick by a large delegation of citizens as well as the Gordon club of Talbot county and a “brass band.” The democratic executive committee of this countv has been requested to meet to day, in Talbotton, for transaction of busi ness. As the congressional convention will meet in LaGrange on the 20th of July, and “our” nomination by the primary system is on the 17th, we presume the ob ject in calling a meeting of the committee, is to call a mass meeting at the court house on the 6th of July, to nominate delegates so the county can be represented in-said convention. Colonel Grimes, will be en dorsed by our county almost unanimously. We have four candidates seek ing honors in the lower house of the legislature. Mr. Jas. F. Little we think is the most popular candidate in “our”section for the position, and we think his chances good to be nominated on the 17th. If either of the gentlemen that are aspiring for legislators sueceed ( you may write it down old Talbot w til not be ashamed when the roll is called. We hear of a great deal of sickness throughout the comity. Dysentery is rag ing principly among the children with fearful fatality. We are enjoying peaches, armies and vegetables in great abundance.

So consequential are they that they do not move out of tlie road, and the Arab, when he stum bles over them, swears at them, but never molests them. The bazaars are full of them, and they tight and make love in the thoroughfares in broad daylight as if it were the most natural tiling in the world for cats to do so. Till then I had thought Grimalkin was a nocturnal beast. For in Europe we are accustomed lo see them sleepy and lazy all day. and to hear them noisy aud active at night. But this is only, apparently, a geographical accident, in the Soudan, at any rate, cats are diurnal and go to bed at sunset, while in Suakim in particular, where the people live so largely upon fish, and the refuse of their meals' lies in heaps at every corner, the feline tribe have assumed much of the importance and something of the demean or of dogs. They lie under the stalls or sit upon the bedsteads—which, after Oriental fashion, stand in the open air—as if in charge of the premises and property. For one thing there are very few dogs.
