WEDNESDAY MORNING, MARCH 10, I860;
Death or R. 31. Onne, Senior.
Wo are pained to learn, from MilledgeriUe,
that the venerable R. M. Oeke, Senior, editor
of the Recorder, died in that city lent Monday.
We got no particulars. Mr. Onne ia believed
to hare been the oldest conductor of the press
in Georgia, and perhaps, the whole Southern
country. Hi» editorial career dates back nearly
half a century; and embraces the most interest
ing, exciting and brilliant, as well as disastrous
periods in the civil and political history of
Georgia. The subjugation and degration of the
State—the loss of a large portion of his ample
property, and the apparent extinction of consti
tutional liberty in the South, were blows too
heavy for the old veteran. He lost his mental
elasticity under the severe pressure of these cal
amities, and not long ago gave expression in his
paper V> feelings of utter and hopeless weari
ness and disgust The public and his own per
sonal misfortunes, no doubt hastened his death.
Phlloftophcr Greeley at the Inaugura
tion Ball. _
Wo have the authority of a dispatch to the
Louisville Courier-Journal, for the statement
that Philosopher Greeley, of the Tribune, went
to the inauguration ball, was knocked about
ruthlessly by crowds of strong-minded women—
saw none of the colored brothers and sisters
there—lost his hat—that dear old bell-crown—
tore his white coat—lost his temper—swore like
our army in Flanders—and finally escaped with
the loss of one shoe—trodden upon under the
heel by an irrevelent imp o} humanity—by
which the unfortunate philosopher was precipi
tated down half a dozen door steps on all fours
fortunately with no further injury than a few
scratches on the nose, face and palms of the
hands. That was the main part of the inau
guration to Philospher Greeley.^
Funeral Discourse.
“CbssswxllT" “CjntswxLL?”—We never
heard of that narno but once before; and Ma-
cauley, or somebody else, tells a story about old
Mother Cresswell, a notorious pander to the cor
rupt minions of the Court of Charles II. Old
Mother Cresswell died, and tire Court Chaplain
wagered a cask of Burgundy with tlutt monarch
that he would preach a funeral sermon over the
old belldame, in which nothing but good should
be said of the dead, and it should all be truer
Charles accepted the wager, and the chaplain
won it, by saying, “ That however lightly
irreverent persons had been accustomed to speak
of the honored deceased, it was equally certain
that she was bom well, marriod well, lived well
and died well; for ahe was bom a Hopewell,
she married a Cresswell, ahe lived in Camberwell
anddiedin Bridewell.”
In Vino Veritas.
Boston - os Ixacaimmon Dat.—The cannon
was fired and the banners flying in Boston on
the day of Grant's inauguration. It was a holi
day by common consent. They had a prayer
meeting, of course, and the prayers mixed a
good deal with politics. “Nearly all clergymen
of the city participated an hour or more in sol
emn prayer, invoking the divine blessing upon
the President, tbo Congress and the country,
and imploring the forgiveness of God for the
indiscretions of the outgoing President.” Cer
tainly ! Andrew Johnson may consider himself
in luck after all. Boston has made it all right
for him. He need'nt fear any punishment for
the awful sin ho committed in refusing to carry
out the plans of the Radicals. Ahtoteo te /
Gen. Dissatisf Motion,
According to Northern aooonnts, has taken com
mand of tho Radical camp. They damn the
inaugural with very faint and equivocal praise,
and the Cabinet with the most unreserved cen
sure. They take consolation, however, in the
hope, that some members will not accept and
others will resign from incompetency, or some
other reason, and the Cabinet will, therefore,
have to be “ reconstructed.” They were bent
on reconstructing Grant's administration before
it had been in existenoe forty-eight horns.
Cuba—What ran Inbubozsts Rzroirr.—Late
accounts from the insurgents in Cuba state that
they have 6,GOO men in the field, of whom 2,000
are armed, whilst tho others fight with such
weapons ns they can obtain; that they hold two-
thirds of the inland towns; that its entire cen
tre is impassablo to the Spanish soldiery; that
the Government has had no communication with
Nenvitas or Puerto Principe for four months,
and that Yalmazoda lost 800 men out of 5,000
in his retreat from Nenvitas to Bayamo, picked
off by insurgent sharpshooters.
“All we want,” say the Cubans, “is arms
and munitions—arms for 40,000 men who now
fight with boughs of trees, forked at the end,
and wooden cannon, which are good for only
three rounds, the fourth round, as a rule, burst
ing them.” •>■ i
Important Medical-Discovert.—A remarka
ble medical discovery has recently been made in
the treatment of deafness by Professor Scott, of
the New York Medical University, by which the
most apparently hopeless cases are radically
cured. The method consists in introducing
atomized oxyde of phenyl directly into the cavi
ty of the tympanum. No unpleasant sensations
are produced, and a feeling of clearness seems
to follow the application. Numerous cases are
daily treated successfully at the University.
The Situ Aston in Spain.—The Constituent
Cortez have appointed a Committee of Fifteen
to draft a constitution and form of government.
As the republican party is in a hopeless minor
ity, ibis proposition, which is to be submitted
to the people for ratification, is almost certain
to embody some sort of limited monarchy. That
people are not prepared for a republican gov
ernment, which they very well know.
New Hampshire Election.—The New Hamp
shire State election for Governor and State offi
cers took place yesterday. The Democracy are
it-Mring a square fight in opposition to universal
negro suffrage. Being the first election since
the adoption of the 15th amendment, the result
will be looked for with interest.
A Duke of Orleans now exists for the first
time once 1842. He was three weeks old last
week. TUg mamma is the Countess of Paris,
who was confined at Twickenham, England, on
the 6th of February. The young Duke is a
'great-grandson of Louis Philippe, by both father
and mother.
Emigration prom the Antipodes.—A party of
distinguished gentlemen from the Celestial Em
pire passed through Knoxville, Tennessee, a few
days since, en route for Western Tennessee,
where they expect to settle and engage in the
culture of the tea plant They are to be followed
by another party who are looking out a suitable
location for an extensive Fire Cracker Factory.
The retirement of Ben Wade leaves Sumner
the oldest member of the Senate. He was elec
ted in 1851, and is now serving his third term.
When he entered the Senate he made the third
of the number of Free Sailers in that body—the
other two being Salmon P. Chase and John P.
Hale.
Nrw York Stock Market.—We begin the
publication to-day of the New York Stock Mar
ket, which win be found as a special dispatch to
the Telegraph.
Georgia and Louisiana Lett out—An
other Row.
We see the Clerk of the House omitted the
States of Georgia and Louisiana in his call of
Representatives to the 41st Congress. This
omission raised a strong protest from the Dem
ocrats, for whom Mr. Brooks, of New York, was
chief spokesman. The call was interrupted by the
clamor of contestants on both rides for nearly
an hour, during which" excitement rose to the
highest pitch—a good deal of minatory language
was interchanged—calls for arrest were furious,
and, for a time, personal collisions seemed not
improbable. Finally, the contest was withdrawn
without any particular reason apparent in the
report of the tumult, and the call of States pro
ceeded with Georgia and Louisiana omitted.
This is incidental notification that the House
does not consider Georgia and Louisiana prop
erly reconstructed and entitled to representation
in Congress. True, neither have elected Con
gressmen, bnt both were nevertheless entitled
to be called. The refusal to call them is re-af
firmation by the House of the Forty-first Con
gress of the decision made by the same body in
the Fortieth Congress in the electoral canvass.
That body, it will bo recollected, raised the same
question as to Louisiana and Georgia, and de
cided it, so far as tho House was concerned,
against those States by a strict party vote. They
declared that Georgia and Louisiana should not
be counted. The Senate, in joint session, over
ruled the House, and in so doing raised a simi
lar tempest with the House majority that the
Democrats did last Thursday in the effort to
defeat the same proposition.
Tima the House must be considered to have
twice affirmed, in different sessions, that Geor
gia and Louisiana shall not be considered States
of the Union. *
We are now to see what positive and affirma
tive action of Congress ia to follow this negative
Meanwhile we have Gen. Grant's unofficial
declaration that he considers Georgia in the
Union—that it is absurd to deny onr title to be
a State of the Union. We have the Senate’s
action, (whatever that may go for) insisting
upon the count of Georgia in the electoral can
vass, and we have the declaration of various
leading Radical organs that, after what has
passed, it is absurd to deny that Georgia ia not
legally reconstructed and entitled to the position
of a State of the Union.
The case of Georgia, therefore, seems to
complicate as we move along, and it is our mis
fortune to breed a row in Congress whenever
we come up in that body. We are evidently
destined to be “a bane of contention," an “ap
ple of discord," or any other acceptable figure
of speech which may set forth an inoffensive
and harmless cause of quarrel.
We see tho Georgia Radicals at home are split
up into several small pieces over the status of
Georgia. We see the Senate and House of Re
presentatives of the United States, in conven
tion assembled, going into a perfect storm over
Georgia—even the gentle Ben. Butler himself,
fairly dancing with rage and shouting until
black in the face for the members of the House
to kick the Senators out of their chamlter; and
now we see the new House in a foam so soon as
Georgia is mentioned, and the members chal
lenging each other to a resort to force. We see,
too, that the House majority is evidently al
ready at issue in opinion with the new admin
istration, as to the course which shall bo pursued
towards Georgia; so that really it would ap
pear, in spite of ourselves, and notwithstanding
our utmost efforts to harmonize the country—
to conciliate Congress and the powers that be,
and to maintain so profound a quiet and sub
lime an aoqoiesence in, and resignation to, the
fiat and will of onr Radical (lominature, that the
world has never seen the like; we say, notwith
standing all those, it seems that we are provi
dentially and judicially set apart aa a sort of
moral and political cayenne pepper in the ten
der optics of radicalism; so that whenever
Georgia comes up the whole camp is straight
way in a blaze, and they strike about so wildly
and blindly,in the exoeas of furious indignation,
that they knock each other over and terrify
spectators. Well we can't help it We have
only to keep quiet and say nothing.
Mobile Register on the Cabinet.
The Chevalier Bayard of the Southern press
has this to say about the sew deal of the De
partments:
Another Presidential parturition! And this
time more than a mouse is born. Every Rad
ical leader will exclaim with Hamlet:
“How now! Ant? Dead for a ducat, dead!”
We see now, why Grant would not “ send for ”
tho leaders. He meant to leave them out in the
cold, and had no live for them! Bat, oh, Gemi
ni ! what a row there is going to be about Gen.
Grant’s ears. There is no XVth Amendment in
that Cabinet. The Sumners, Wades, Wilsons,
and all the head devils of destruction “ severely
let alone.” Won’t they howl? Won’t they
hang on to the tenure-of-office law ? Won't the
breach crow into a golf between Grant and the
political extremists who had to take him ? Won't
the “rings” swear like tho army in Flanders ?
and won’t Grant before long have to cry to Dem
ocrats, when he wants a good measure pat
through Congress, “Help me, Cassias! or I
sink?
For onr part, we are pleased with the animus
that breathes out of the tout ensemble of the cab
inet. We could tell better if we liked its per
sonal material, if we only knew who they all
were. Bnt who is Bone? Who is Hoaro?
And which Cox is it ? They are all unknown to
fame. They are all like Grant, “not politi
cians,” and that is the good feature in it They
are evidently selected as General Grant’s per
sonal and trusted friends. Mr. Stuart, the great
dry goods man, bolds the most important port
folio, and if he manages the public finances as
skillfully as he has done his mammoth New York
establishment, so much the better for tho Treas
ury. We should tikg to know how many Gov
ernment bonds he holds. Mr. Washbnrne, of
the State Department, used to be accounted a
Rad., bnt his Conservative lectures to tho ex
tremists in the House are yet fresh from his
lips. Of the rest we knoyr nothing, except that
Mr. Creswell was late Senator from Maryland.
The General hangs fire on the War Minister,
and wo have to wait for the coming man. We
await, also, with meekness and patience, to hear
what the Radical Senators and newspapers have
to say about it.
Richmond Dispatch on the Cabinet.
The Richmond Dispatch of Saturday, after a
personal notioe of each member of' the Cabinet
embodies its ideas of the whole, and its mean
ing, in the following:
This Cabinet, while composed of men all, we
suppose, belonging to the Republican party, is
yet selected with, such little reference to party
leaders as to be entirely in keeping with the oft-
expresssed sentiments of General Grant, show
ing his independence of party. In his inaugural
he declares that the Presidency had come to him
“unsought,” and that he commenced ‘tits duties
untrammelled”; and he has steadily avowed the
determination to be governed alone by “the will
of the people.” The Cabinet he has selected
must be tested by its official conduct. General
Giant evidenty means himself to be an active
and controlling Chief Magistrate. He will see
that public duties are discharged, and will re
lieve the Government of incapacity, whenever
it appears in his Cabinet or elsewhere, by re
movals and new appointments.
General Grant, in framing this Cabinet, has
left out the political hacks—those drilled and
disciplined leaders in partisan warfare—and he
has no doubt done so to get rid of their arro
gance and their prejudice, and passions. He
did not mean to gather about him men prone to
dictation. In avoiding them he facilitates the
way to peace arid practicalizes his administra
tion. .
Joshua TTtt.t.—The Hon. Joshua Hill had an
interview with the President on the 5th. We
hope he secured a through ticket; but it is
doubtful.
A writer in Good Words says: ‘‘In family
affection and feminine chastity, Ireland can
challenge the world to equal her.
Washbnrne, Stewart, Cox and Cress
well.
From the Louinille Courier-Joumai.]
Washtnoton, March 5.—X give you a few h««-
iy notes concerning the personality of the new
Cabinet. There is hardly one of the advisers
appointed by Grant who can be called a favorite
with the Republican party, and all of them are
more or less obnoxious to the Radical leaders.
Gen. Grant himself declares that he has select
ed them without regard to partisan considera
tions, and that he has consulted the wishes of
Congress lees than his own inclinations. I be
gin with
EUHU B. WJLSHBTBNE, SECBETABY OP STATE.
The subject of this sketch was bom in Liver
more, Oxford county, Maine, September 23,
1816; served an apprenticeship in thaprinting
office of the Kennebec Journal; studied law at
Harvard University, and, removing to the West
practised law at Galena, Illinois. He was elect
ed a Representative to the thirty-third and re
elected to the thirty-fourth, thirty-fifth, and
thirty-sixth Congresses, serving on two occa
sions as Chairman of the Committee on Com
merce. He was also elected to the thirty-sev
enth Congress, again serving as Chairman of
the Committee on Comnfercfc, and re-elected to
the thirty-eighth Congress, serving again as
Chairman of the Committee on Commerce, and
as a memljer of the joint Committee on the Li
brary. He was. a member of the fortieth Con-
Iflwni, and, front having served so many terms,
was known as the “Father of the House.”
Mr. Washbnrne is a plain, shrewd, practical
man, with strong prejudices and a dear head.
He is to the Republican party what George W.
Jones, of Tennessee, was to the Democratic
party, the “Watch Dog of the Treasury.” He
is eminently a self-made man, and the best of
his name. Grant said of him: “Washbnrne
was my friend when I was poor and needed
friends,” and his reward is the appointment to
the best position in his friend's cabinet Mr.
Washbnrne is by no means a violent or extreme
politician, and his sound common sense and
sturdy love of fair play will carry him through
almost any diplomatic affair, and will meet all
the questions which may come before him in onr
foreign affairs without tergiversation or brav
ado. He ia a decided improvement upon Mr.
Seward.
ALEXANDER T. STEWART, SECRET ART OT THE TEEAS-
Moro than any onqelse in America, probably,
Alexander T. Stewart is the embodiment of
business. He is emphatically a man of money
—thinks money, makes money, lives money.
Stewart has never been communicative about
his early life, and those curious in respect to it
are generally rebuffed in their inquiries. It is
known that he is a native of Ireland, having
been born near Belfast, though he claims to be
descended from a Scotch family. He is of the
Scotch-Irish extraction, with the determination,
perseverance and energy that marks such stock,
and must of neoessjty nave sprung from the he
roic defenders of Londonderry, as all the Sootch-
Iriah, risen to any eminence, have done before
and sinco Li* time.
In his eighth year Stewart lost his parents,
and was reared by his maternal grandfather,
who intended to educate him for the Methodist
Church, of which he himself was a devout mem
ber. The boy is reported to have shown very
early a resolution to be first in whatever he un
dertook, and to have been foremost in his class
at Trinity College, Dublin, where, like every
true son of Erin, he graduated with honor. He
was then in his cightheenth year, and his grand
father being dead, he was placed under the
guardianship of a quaker. Not liking Ireland,
he concluded to seek his fortune in the New
World, and came hero in 1823 with letters of
recommendation to same of the best families of
’Friends ia New York. He was a teacher at first,
and persona npw living remember when they sat
under his instruction.
He either did not succeed in his calling or did
not relish it, for after ten or twelve months of
teaching he entered a mercantile establishment,
though without any natural bias for trade, his
friends say—a statement to be received with
liberal allowance. He had an interest of some
kind in the house, and accident, it is said, mado
him a merchant; for hia partner died suddenly
and left the entire responsibility of the business
upon the young man of two-and-twentv. He
then determined to devote himself to trade, and,
returning to Ireland, sold the little property he
had there, bought a lot of lacee with the money,
and came to New York.
Daring the famine in Ireland he purchased a
ship, loaded it with provisions, and sent them
there. Oh the retain voyage he filled it with
young men and women, and obtained situations
for them before they reached this shore.
During the war he gave at one time to the
Sanitary Commission a check for $100,000,
which was obtained in this way: Some one hav
ing asked him to contribnto, ho said he would
give as much os Vanderbilt. Vanderbilt, on be
ing approached, agreed to give as much as Stew
art Stewart then sent the applicant back to
Vanderbilt who, in a fit of annoyance, drew on
his banker for 9100,000. Stewart kept his word,
and the Commission was $200,000 richer by tho
the operation.
Respecting his wealth, it is difficult to esti
mate it It is set down at 930,000,000, and
even ns high as $60,000,000. His income varies
greatly. It has been less than $1,000,000 and
as much as $4,000,000 a year, the amount de
pending upon the activity of the trade and the
fluctuations of tho market. Every once in a
while it is reported in the country that Stewart
has failed, but in New York his failure is known
to be impossible, as he has always made it a
rule to tray for cash.
JACOB D. COX, SECRETARY 07 THE INTERIOR.
Mr. Cox is a native of Ohio. He was bom in
the northern part of the State on the 15th of
March, 1826. He is consequently in his forty-
third year. He entered Obertin College when a
lad of sixteen, was (fistignished there ns a good
scholar, and graduated with highest honors in
his cla». Thereafter he studied law, and at the
outbreak of the civil war was engaged in the
successful practice of that profession. In poli
tics he was known as an original old-line aboli
tionist. He arrayed himself actively with the
State govenment in support of the Union cause;
was Adjutant General under Governor Densi-
son; was successively a Colonel, a Brigadier
General, and a Major General in the Union
army, serving through most of the greater cam
paigns. When the war was over he was nom
inated by the Repnbticans as their candidate for
Governor of Ohio. In this capacity, he wrote a
letter, which was published, giving it as the re
sult of his experience that the whites and the
blacks of the Sooth could not live harmoniously
together, and advocating an apportionment of
the of the public domain as a colony for them.
In spite of this heterodox opinion he was elected
Governor of Ohio and served two years, making
an efficient and acceptable executive to all par
ties. He is a man of ability, of integrity, of
experience, of moderation, and his appointment
as Secretary of the Interior may be regarded as
in every way auspicious.
JOHN A. J. CRESSWELL, POSTMASTER GENERAL.'
This gentleman was bom in Port Deposit,
Cecil county, Maryland, November 18, 1828;
graduated at Dickinson College, Pennsylvania,
in 1848; stndied law and came to the bar of
Maryland in 1850. He was a member of the
Maryland Anas at Delegates in 1861 and 1862.
From 1862 to April, 1863, he' was an Assistant
Adjutant General of Maryland; and was elected
a Representative from Maryland to the Thirty-
eighth Congress, serving on the Committees on
Commerce and Invalid Pensions. He was also
a delegate to the Baltimore Convention in 1864.
Mr. Creswell is justly regarded as a man of
signal ability, administrative talent, and great
personal integrity of character. He rose to
eminence at the Maryland bar, and was gen
erally admitted to be one of the leading men in
his State. His appointment will be received
with favor by all parties.
Ecclesiastical Rapacity.—One of the strang
est scenes which has been witnessed in* this
crooked world, for a long time, must have been
the if. E. Church Conference in Alexandria. Tie
chief matter of discussion in that reverend body
was the success they had met with in wresting
the church buildings and property out of the
hands of the Southern Methodists, and the hope
was expressed that in no great time they would
be ably to make a clean sweep in the bastard
State of 'West Virginia and throughout the old
Dominion. An assembly of reverend divines
pattering their prayers and psalms of congratula
tion over their success in the unrighteous acqui
sitions of jiroperty not their own!
Gen. Grant’s Inconsistency.—A New York
dispatch Bays much amjsement was caused in
political circles in that city, by a publication ex
posing the inconsistency of General Grant in re
fusing to take advice of his political and person
al friends in the formation of his Cabinet after
having attempted to force President Johnson to
continue his personal enemy Stanton in the War
Department.

Petebsbtbo. March 9—The Republican Stats

fight ensued around the chairman's stand. A strong
police force interfered and separated the combat

made a speech in behalf of peace. The rival candi
dates for temporary chairman followed, advocating

the police force to clear the hall, which was done.

DiMgraceful Stone at tbo Inaugura
tion Ball.
All agree (hat the Inauguration ball given in
the Treasury building at Washington was a vul
gar jam. We copy tho following from the In
telligencer :
At eleven o'clock the supper rooms wore
thrown open, but so great was the rush for some
thing to eat that it is not possible that more
than two-thirds of those who attended tho ball
caught even a glimpse of the edibles. By 12
o'clock the crowd down stain began to thin ont,
and when tho guests repaired to the dressing-
rooms, thinking to obtain their wrappings and
go home, there occurred a scene of oonfusion
such os was never before witnessed at any ball
or reception given in Washington; and we doubt
if it could be possible to bavo worse manage
ment in the arrangement of cloak-rooms than
was last night displayed at the inauguration ball.
Thj? coat-rooms for gentlemen (two in number)
were in the attic story; colored attendants re
ceived the wrappings through a small opening
in the door, gave checks, and laid coats and
hats away, without regard to numerical arrange^
mont, under tables, on window-sills, behind
doors, and in piles two or three feet high, scat
tered all over the floor. Instead of placing the
coats and hats according to the numbers on
them, and arranging them by hundreds, aa
checks were given out, they were thrown togeth
er promiscuously, and piled hero and there,
without the least regard to the possibilities of
finding them when called for. About eleven
o’clock gentlemen began to form into tine, in
order to give in their checks and receive their
wrappings, and then tho stupidity of the man
agement became at once apparent. Tho num
bers on the checks ranged from a unit to two
thousand, and the first man who presented him
self until all the coats could be looked over, as
the attendants did not knaw where any particu
lar number could be found. By twelve o’clock
there was a long tine of gentlemen waiting in
the vain hope of getting their coats, and as the
number increased the confusion .inside grew
worse. Piles of clothing were knocked about,
right and left; checks were lost, and affairs as
sumed a hopeless aspect. The impatient crowd
at last broke through the lines and filled the
narrow hall to suffocation. Matters had by this
time become serious, and police were stationed
to prevent any more ooming in. Two men
fainted, and were dragged out, and the din and
uproar of angry, excited voices was deafening.
Curses loud and deep were heard on every side,
and at one time a row was threatened. Mem
bers of the committee were sent for, and the
mode of giving out tho garments was changed.
A policeman mounted a chair, and the numbers
of the coats inside were called ont, bnt matters
were not in the least improved. Hundreds became
discouraged, andleftwith handkerchiefs tied over
their heads, and many of the ladies were ob
liged to go ont into the sharp, frosty air, with
no protection from the cold bnt their thin dress
skirts thrown over their shoulders. In the la
dies’ cloak-rooms persons were allowed to select
their own garments. In consequence of this
arrangement, very oommon wrappings were ex
changed for elegant opera cloaks, and several
ladies lost everything they had placed in charge
of the attendants. Hundreds of ladies waited
hours for their escorts, and as they were not in
formed of the reason of the delay, their anxiety
was truly pitiable. Several, overcome by fa
tigue and fright, fainted away.. Many persons
waited from eleven o'clock until five in the morn
ing, hoping to find their clothing, and daylight
found anxious crowds stationed at the doors of
the dressing-rooms.
A Row Among Soldiers—Tho Atlanta Era
of the 9th, says : ' *
A collision took place on Washington street
on Sanday, between a squadron of cavalry and
a detachment of artillery, all belonging to the
United States service, in V8ieh three men were
wounded by pistol shobymd three more severely
beaten. The difficultjTtccurred at Hortonville,
a delightfully classic location somewhere near
the jail; and, as was the case in the Trojan war,
it was all about a woman, or rather about some
women, who reside at Hortonville. One branch
of the United States soldieiy claimed the women
as personal property, a claim which the other
disputed, and tike the beantifnl Helen, the wo
men were the cause of a bloody conflict, with
the result above stated. No lives were lost, nor
were were any of the combatants fatally injured.
Peace has been declared, we understand.
“Savannah is Doomed,” are the startling
words which in blood red colors glare dire ven
geance at ns from the pamphlet entitled the
“Great Earthquake by which the Destruction
of Savannah and the Surrounding Country
Within a Radios of Fifty Miles is to be Accom
plished.” The date of this dreadful mishap is
fixed on the seventh of June next.
The News, from which we cut the foregoing,
gives notice in advance that it will suspend pub
lication but a single day on account of the ca
tastrophe. The price of town lots has not been
affected.
Tremendous Rajpt.—A raft, one of the largest
that has ever been brought to Savannah, waa
towed up the river yesterday by two tugs. It
contained over one million feet of timber, and
was over nine hundred feet long.—News.
The Bill to Strengthen the Public Credit.
You remember the old story of the bull-fight on
the bridge. Brindle butted Buck off into the
river, and then backing, ins ome astonishment at
his valorous deed, tumbled off on the other side.
We backed the Democracy into the Salt river,
and this bill to strengthen our national credit
looks as if we were tumbling, foremost, into the
same stream.
A Sugar Crop in Dooly.—We think the ex
ample of our friend Woodward in Dooly county,
ia worthy of special imitation.
People Who Drink Wine not Drunkard*.
There are no drunkards in the wine districts of
Europe. Prof. Lewis Agassiz recently replied
to a Question put to him by a Mrasachusetts
Temperance Committee, that in Switzerland
wine isso much the beverage of the oommon
people that “when one is not able to supply
himself with it he is a pauper, while it is con
sidered one of the charities proper for the poor.
“I do not,” savshe, “know a more cheerful
temperate and steady class of people than are
the peasantry and citizens of Switzerland, gen
erally.” Of the Germans, he says they live on
bread, beer and a little meat, and sometimes
without any meat at all; bnt he thinks yhere
beer is drank the people are not so sprightly
as where they drink wine. As for drunkenness,
he did not know what it was until he went ‘
England.
For this reason, and also because he is a tem
perance man, he hails with joy the efforts made
to raise wine in this country, and he adds that if
we have pure unadulterated wine “we will
have no need of “license or of prohibitory
laws.” In answer to a question regarding the
general use of stimulants by men, and in all
ages of the world, the Professor says that in the
human body “there is a class of agents which
tend to check or to retard the disintegration of
tissue. In the process of life there is going on
all the time a construction of wearing away,
which is continued every moment or life. We
find tea, tobacco, fermented liquors or alcoholio
beverages distributed wherever the race ^ is
found, and they seem to afford the opportunity
of checking a too rapid destruction of the tis
sues, and so keep the balance right, and the in
dividual in health.” ;
Ages op the Presidents.—The youngest man
elected President of the United States is Gen
eral Grant, who will be 47 years old on the 22d
of April next Washington was 57, John Ad
ams 61, Thomas -Jefferson 57, Madison 58,
Monroe 58, John Quincy Adams 58, Andrew
Jackson over 60, Martin Van Buren 57, William
Henry Harrison 67, James K. Polk 49, Zachary
Taylor 63, Franklin Pierce 48, James Buchan
an 65, and Abraham liincoln nearly 51, when
they were elected.
