When Republican members of Con gress arc charset 1 now-a-days, and SPIRIT OF THE GEORGIA PRESS The Savannah News says I here have been of late no lack of indica tions of the unfavorable estimation in which Americun Republicanism, as fljey air not lew, with voting for the j]] us t r ated by the present Adminis- •xtr* safer; grab bill, some petty or- | t la tion, both in its foreign diplomacy gan.ot the par.v respectable journals : an( ] its domestic government, is held will not do the dirty work—rushes promptly to the rescue, defending the grabbers, by stating that he or they have not or do not intend to draw the increased pay. This dodge was recently t-ied in the case of Senator Horton, of Indiana, chairman of the ■Committee of Privileges and Elec tions, and through whose hands the hih passed, and by him approved, and who, backed by his committee, au thorized Senator Josnua Hill of Geor gia to report in favor oi eight tnou- sand dollars for the late and future •Congress, instead of five thousand as • ki the bill passed. Hill made tne re port as instructed, and in Morton’s presence, stating that it had the unanimous approval of the commit tee. The Terre Rant Journal refer ring to this matter, says: “ It is use less for Senator Morton or his friends to seek to deceive the public. There . is a record on this subject and we - we prepared to prove what we here , lay.” Morton wont draw his increased :pay. Oh no—of course not. Tneu why hie anxiety on the subject, and -his instructions to Senator Hill to report in favor of eight thousand dol ors. Morton is a virtuous man— wery! CESSATION OF BICKERING The LaG range Reporter copies the following paragraph from a late let ter of Col. Blanton Duncan: “Real Democrats, therefore, how- e\< r they may have differed last year, •i'her upon questions of policy or ♦>)«diency. will insist absolutely ®l">n a cessation of all bickering; and those who attempt to embroil the or ganization, or to split it into lactions, find themselves crushed under will the united and harmoniously em phatic condemnation of the masses, whenever the voice can be heaid.’ To the foregoing the Reporter re sponds: “lie is riijit; the Democratic party, taking warning by the disastrous de lea! ot last fail, will never again make a tight on any principles but those on which it was founded and by which for so many years it. made our Country t he most glorious among the nations of the world.” Such is the sentiments of all good Democrats. Never was a party so Completely sold out, and at so small * price, as t he Democracy was last year. Let toe true and solid Democ- racy put their heels upon ev-ry at tempt to introduce disturbing ele ments in our deliberations True. Democracy is wli.it we want, and •one of the bogus, semi-Radical kind. rotu the W»fhAfcion chrouio e, 7th Apr 1, 187£:.

The News comes to the conclu sion that. With corruption in every depart ment of the Government, States over whelmed with debt, Legislative mobs, burdensome taxation, anarchy, uni versal distrust and alienation, surely we have little to boast over even the worst of the monarchies. We need not be surprised then if Europeans find little to admire in our R. -publi can form of Government as adniinis tered br the Radical party. In noticing that the treachery of Capt. Jack, the leader of the Modocs (which culminated in the death 01 General Cauby ami Mr. M each am), is received throughout the land with cry for vengeance—vengeance, speedy and bloody, the Savannah Advertiser says, referring to the order of exter mination issued by the Commander- in-Chief: “In the midst of this ex citement we would commend the earnest consideration of the semi ment which heads this article. Be fore the sword and brand are applied, let ns look at the example we have set before these untutored, unchris tian and uncivilized people” The Advertiser then propounds the quest ions: lias the Government kept its plighted faith to the Indians, to its own citizens? Has it not acted iu bad faith, with treachery and dissim ulation ? Are there not those in our own midst who can bring evidence of treachery and bad faith on the part the Government before which the fcs* we do rtliei fbes i bi lee Is, *):i t see tlie way ch ,ir i > any popular apur.ibuiion, if * •uiiciai opinion a- t . t :i>e —i» v. lament, onwever, ttm oil, Hi ion i tne n-t ot bring n^, ri,e J7 ' ' r " ‘ wn upou tne knic-ii urea M •iiobai >i», »a uni mir g.iott Pr.-srli t, '^raiil ot resnoiiMoibty, ni rm.i.. i c..ey, on Lis or aov •tlier qnefoi, ’ fue> believed they Were doing H ^>oo,l tiling for \VulJ atr et •ud the wnolt- country last October, and •§ ft-tigress a.ijuurned without any dis- munner of doing it, fiiei •ent to the niitht Weil o<> tie to the froa 1^ nke dis But they Lave not yet f ' ‘ fiard the last of the affair from the No ,ora paper®, tin J whatever lUey might «o .u the pr sent instance, whether by teaasferriug ten r*r fi'een mi’ltons gold *no exchange on Loudon, and to the re *ef of the exchange market, or by trans- fcrring the same amount of greenroom- *o the temp. r.»-y help of tne banking •toveireut, it i« quite Certain they would have to look dirooUy to the poop.c for u ,- •enmity, and not to their Relf-ooustitate,. •rgans in the tiuaucial metropolis 'I he Secretary has evidently under wood that the New York combma- m-itiun WlkS lormed to force him, if po8sible, to take some action about which lault-tiuders could grumble, and he has quietly carried out his own programme, without heeding clamor or a threatened crisis.

Are there not ihose in this community who accepted the invitation of General Sherman, after the capture of Savannah, to Come forward and take the oath of allegiance, under a solemn guarantee that., if they would do so, all of their property should be restored to them, saving and excepting sla ves ? Was not the guarantee approved by Presi dent Lincoln, and the Congress of the Lnited States then giving it the sanction and authority of law ? In an article on the progress of the Cuban revolution and the prospects of the early success of the Carliste, together with the increased opposi tion to the Spaui-11 Government upon the Island, the Augusta Constitu tionalist thinks the time for govern mental influence in the cause of free Cuba, on the part of the Uni ted States, is gone by. if it were at. any period advisable. It says there is no —good reason why this country should intervene in the wav of pur chase, even if Spa n were willing, and if the Cubans desired it. Com- mercially, Cuba would be advanta geous to this country as an inde pendent republic. But there are no political reasons why it would be a desirable acquisition to this country. Referring to the popular demand r ° r the extermination of the Modocs. the Chronicle and Sentinel says that nothing is clearer or surer thuu that the Caucasian will never brook a ii\al rebellious race on this conti nent, no matter what their natural rghts may be. The tale of the last of the Mohicans has been written; and that very soon will the last of the Modi.cs become the subject for the pen of the novelist and poet, and cnallenge onlv the interest of archaj- logical research to illustrate the his tory of the man of the Stone Age. Says that paper: But this is not the only mission of the American, nor will “manifest destiny” be satisfied until the “whole boundless continent is ours.” In another generation or two the flood of Caucasian emigrants from the East, flowing like an irresistable tide, will cover every habitable spot, to fhe exclusion of every other race and kindred and tongue, North and South, and East and West. I here is great activity at the naval stations below New Orleans. Eight monitors are in readiness for Service. It. is believed that Cuba is now the coveted possession. The New Or leans Picayune thinks that the con dition of Cuba and Spain is not un suspicious of such design—to wbRli the Columbus Sun replies that there is an element in the North acquiring Southern territory. Both Mr. Jefferson and Mr. Tyler met with the most rancorous opposition from this element, and, though the chief cause—slavery—which stiniu lated then is now removed, the hos tility still lingers, aud the President would have to resort to some means of allaying it before his designs, if he lias such, could be put into execu ion. Referring to the State Printing matter, the Columbus Enquirer says that it does not regard the case against Mr. Hemphill as made out simply by the showing that he charg ed the State the regular printers rate by the thousand ems, and paid the printers the regular weekly wages. The editor, who is a practical printer, says: The rates established bythePrin tors L uion iu Atlauta—50 cents per thousand ems, or S21 per week must be regarded as their estimate of a fair equalization of the two modes of employment. The Public Printer had the right, we suppose, to charge the State by the thousand ems; aud if the matter to be printed had so much “lat in it as to make to him a lflaterial difference between payment by the thousand ems and bv the week, the justice of employing the pi in.era by the week aud receiving pay from the State by the thousand is properly a question between the I ublic Priuter and the compositors the State being only charged accord ing to a system which Mr. Hemphill had the right to adopt. The Griftin Star, discussing the same subject, has this to say ma y true that there are some differences of opinion between Mr. Hemphill and Gov. Smith about the charges of the former for State print- mg, but the law presumes every man to be innocent uutil the contrary is proven; consequently we think it would have been more becoming in the Herald, as a member ot the Press Association, to have waited until tlie uiattei was fully settled beforegivinor any of the facts. Another feature we noticed in the Herald’s editorial in reference to Mr. Hemphill is, that the editor of that paper has just discov- »ied that much of his opposition to Gov. Smith was founded upon a mis conception ol the man. Why was this discovery maue ? Was it because Governor Smith thought proper to investigate the charges of a brother editor? We will not now answer, but the spirit in which the article. seems to have been written, looks tery much that way. We hav* said this much in justice to brother Hemp hill, and shall give our readers tlie benefit, of the whole matter we cau get the facts. The Griflin News has this to say on the subject: It is to be regretted th.it these ru mors were made public, without they had been proven, thus casting a sus picion upon the character of a gen tleman whose integrity has always been above suspicion. We have no doubt but what Mr. Hemphill will demonstrate his utmost good faith in the mutter, for we do not believe that he would intentionally wrong the State or auy one else out of a cent. Fatal Poisoning’ll DEATH OF DM. J. W. CRAIG. AftiD POSSIBLY OF JUDGE THOMAS PDLLU31. THREE MEN POISONED BY DRINKING ACONITE! an appalling calamity: as soon as BRIGUAil YOUNG. Brigham Young has resigned the I lesidency ot the Utah Central and Southern Railroads—J. Sharpe has been elected President, of the former aud William Jennings President ot the latter r„ad. A Salt Lake dispatch One of the most painful and horrible calamities ever known iD this city oc enrred last evening, by which the dea'Li of oce man and the possible end of an other was caused by poison ! About 5J o’clock in the afternoon, Dr. J. W. Craig and Judge Thomas Pallutn, of the drug house ot rleura Craig & C.-., jf tins oity, went into the cellar of their stare for the pu»pose ol taking a dru-k of whisky. In the basement where the whisky is kept is also u chemical tabora- fory, under the .management of Mr. J. F. Jones, formerly i.f Virginia. Judge Puiloai remarked to Mr. Jones tu«t tie was feeling badly and believed he wouid •ake a dr nk. After the whirky wee drawn, Mr. Jones piopo-ed that l y put ting a email qu muty oi ehxur of orange peel in the gl sees it would aste better, and tne gentlem-n asseufug, Mr. Jones ook from his laboratory what he supposed was the elixir of orange peel, und “daehod” the driuks. But, alas! the terrible finale prvoed it to be aconite, one of the most deadly poison I Sir. Jones took • drink also with Dr. Craig and Jndge Pahman In a abort while Dr. Craig became visibly affected, and the terrible fac fUshed upon his niiud tbai. he had taken poison. He at once took an emetic, and nuooeeded in vommng. In the mean time, Judge Pullum had stepped out, and the employee? of the firm became uneasy about him. At tLis juncture he came luto the store, and tne poisonous draught was having us edict upon mm. Dr. Miller was immediately sent or, aud hod him earned to his office ol Broad sireet. Dr. Lowe, a member oi iie firm, at this umo took Dr. Craig bj he arm ana the two went to Dr. Craig’s residence on Marietta street. After nr riving there the syrnp urns sga’n became iarmiiig, and Dr. Asuer was sent fer, ut all efforts piovid futile, and at half ust nine, in great agony, Dr. Cru'g ex pired. At 11 o’clock, the hour at which this article is penned, Judge Pul um is lying «■■ Dr. Miller’s office in gloat agony, jhu uot expected to recover. Mr. Jones went ,o his boarding house to suoj er and re urued. He then complained of fueuug the effeo.s of the ooison a little, and returned to his room. Wo did uot iearn whether he was seriously effected or uot. These were about all t< o important .’acts we could gather at to late au hour hour. Of course, under the excitement wmeh was prevalent, tuinbe less rumors were afloat, of whicu we deem it im proper to recite. Eye witnesses state that Dr Craig’s sufferings w*-re intense, and the only re- mnrk he made was, “What a horrible death to die!” Dr. Craig wi‘8 a bachelor «n i about fifty years old.

The Sunday school of St. Philip’s was j lined by thi Sunday schools of the two missions unden the fostering care of that Chuich—the Mission of the Holy Iono- oente and of tho Mission of the Re deemer.

We alao learned at this hour that Mr. Jones was but tiightly iflJecied. New York City contains the densest population of any city in the world. The population to the square mile in several of the largest cities in the world is as follows: Lon 'on 26 000 Pekin 28 5-0 Pari?, 28,000 i New York,.. 43 000 Pekin has generally been regarded as surpassing all others in the density of its population, but it appears that New York exceeds Pekin by 14,500, or more than fifty per cent per square mile. The recent municipal election in Kansas City, Missouri, demon strated that on a square fight the De mocracy have a clear majority in that city. The Times states that the solid Radical vote augmented bv at least two hundred Democrats;, and rein forced by $15,000 slush, was only able to poll 250 majority against the straight Democratic ticket. —The foilowiug figuits give the lia- rlities aud ns»nrc'»s of Ur.Ilk: Bou i already issueu, $85,0'J(); f reposed is?n- o fun i and extinguish tlie prev.n in debtedness, £15.00U, making §100,000, bonded debt.
