Mr. Page, of California, introduced st bill in Congress to enforce the four teenth and fifteenth amendments of the Constitution, and to disfranchise the negro voters of South Carolina by reducing the Congressional represen tation from that State, to a propor tion with the white citizenship there of an I v A petition is now being circulated in Massachusetts, claiming that 150,- 000 voters are denied and abridged their right to vote on account of educational qualifications, require ments of residence, poll-tax, and so on, and petitioning Congress to re duce the representatives of that State accordingly. There were lately shipped from Boston for England, on the steamer Brazilian, two hundred and fifty three head of cattle, and about forty prize cattle, and each weighing over two thousand pounds. Not a single animal were lost on the passage. This, it is considered, sets at rest the question whether the trans-Atlantic trade in live stock can be carried on safely during the winter. Some of the Northern Republican journals are shedding tears over the story that not a single Bepublican vote was cast in Fairfield county, South Carolina, although there are nearly three thousand Republican voters in the county. It is sad to have to dispel a pleasant little bulldozing fiction like this, but ex planation of the fact that no Repub lican votes were cast is to be found in the further fact that there was no Republican ticket in the field ! Weep no more! The aggregate of the estimates of appropriations required for the Fed eral Government for the fiscal year ending June 30, 1880, is $129,197,813, This is exclusive of permanent annu al appropriations for which the esti mates are placed at $115,939,438. These two items make the aggre gate estimates $275,137,251, which is about $5,500,000 below the aggregate estimate presented last December for the current fiscal year. The London Times, commenting on Mr. Hayes’ message, and Secreta ry Sherman’s report, thinks that political prudence, if not patriotic wisdom, will counsel the Democrats to co-operate in the settlement of the currency question in accordance with the wishes of a great majority of the citizens. It thinks that if the cur rency could be established on a hard money basis, free from the complica tions of silver coinage, the country would enter anew era of prosperity. The public schools of South Caroli na appears to be increasing in their prosperity and general usefulness. The attendance for the last school year was about 14,000 greater than he year before, and the increase was largely of colored children. Ai 1 over the South similar agreea ble facts are coming to light, showing the progress of the times in the direc tion of general enlightenment. Sec tional hate, and the necessities of tricky partizan policy, are enabled to retard this progress, but they sannot stop it. It3 strength grows with the years, slowly but steadily, and the dawn of comiDg prosperity, moral and material, grows brighter from day to day. Of very lew great Statesmen of modern times can be said what is of the “iron” Chaucellor of the German Empire, Prince Bismarck, by Busch, a writer who has recently published some very interesting details of Bismarck’s home and pub lie life: “During the war he never failed to perform his daily devotions. Oue morning when Busch looked into Bismarck’s room, just after the chief had quitted it, he noticed on the taule, near the bed, a book of Scrip ture texts, issued by the Moravians, a Bible and a prayer book “for strengthening the faith of believers.” All three boro marks of frequent usage. In social intercourse Bis marck never hesitated to openly avow his firm religious belief. He frankly professed a very staunch faith, and wondered how, without -ueh, the people could do their duty. But for his faith and his conviction that he was discharging his duty to the Almighty, Bismarck said, he would turn his back at once upon diplomacy and the authority of office, or, indeed, he would never have undertaken them; for he did not care for honor and distinction; he was well off, and distinguished enough to dispense with them. If he had displayed unusual preserv ance it was ail owing to the sense of religious responsibility.” A man who won’t take a paper be cause he can borrow one has invented a machine with which he can cook his dinner by the smoke of his neigh bor’s chimney. VOLUME XIX.] Thirty-on* churches were burned in the United States during October. The exact time of the death of Christ was Friday, April 3, A. I)., 33, according to the calculation of Prof- Lutterback. Six of (he recently elected mem bers of the South Carolina Legisla ture are colored men of the Demo cratic party. A horse sold in La Grange last week for $2 50 ; a rail fence for him to lean up against went with the animal. The marriage of a San Frrneiseo widower to his step-daughter so dis pleased his neighbors that they stuck tar and feathers on his door as a hint of what they would do if he did not move. He moved. Cincinnati Enquirer: "Give us Grant and a strong Government,” cries a Republican journal. "Get on my back,” -aid the horse to the man, “and help me against my enemies and even after, the horse was the slave of the man.” THE LEACHING OF SALTS. There is one point of great interest in Dr- Voelcker’s researches, which ig highly suggestive, namely, that nitrate of soda—now used throughout Britain by thousands of tons annual ly— can only be applied in profitable manner at one period of the growth of the crop, namely, just when the fibrous roots are hungry to supply the growing plant, and when the grow ing plant is ready to receive it. The salt must, during this period, be in a state of solution in the soil, and then the plant readily feeds upon it, and Is greatly benefited, but if the nitrate of soda is sownduring the first period of the growth of the crop, before the wants or is ready for it, and while the leaching operations of the rains of winter and Spring are going on the nitrate will be actually leached out of the soil, and pass away and be lost in the escape water from the drains. So, also if more is sown than the plant wants, or can assimilate, the nitrate does not remain in the oil like phosphates, and the amounts of ammonical manure which unites naturally and chemically with the clay is lost, and is carried off by the waste moisture of the land. If this is true of nitrate of soda, it may be that other matters which vve so assidiously and at great expense apply to our soils, may be passing off, and becoming waste with the waste moisture of the land, while for want of chemical examination, we have been ignorant of the fact. No one can examine too closely into these matters. LEV. SHERMANS PASSES. There was an extremely clever incident at the National Theatre re cently at the expense of Gen. W. T. Sherman. Possibly every one out side of Washington does not know what every one inside at Washington does know, that Gen. Gherman trav els more miles and buys fewer tickets than any other public man in Wash ington. Probably he got into the habit of riding free during the war. At all events, it is a current remark, as New Year’s day approaches, that the time of liis staff is mainly occu pied in writing out applications for renewals of Gen Sherman’s “annu als.” Last night Heller pitched upon Gen. Sherman in the audience to dis play some some object which the assistant on the platform was to des cribe by “second sight.” There was a little titter in the orchestra seats when Gen. Sherman handed Heller some passes out of a bundle, and the assistant began repeating, “Pass Gen W. T. Sherman,” etc., but fancy the roar when a boy in the gallery lean ed over, with his eyes on the thick bundle of passes, and remarked, with a low whistle that could be heard over the theatre, “By Jove, but don’t he travel cheap.” NEW W AY TO PAY OLD DEBTS. A propsition has recently been made that the national debt can now be paid off by the imposition of an annual tax of $2O on “Generals,” $lO on “Colonels,” and $5 on “Majors.” There is no doubt of this. The enor mous revenue that would accrue from such a source would in a very short time wipe out the entire debt. After this it could be applied to the labor question, as the fund would be sufficient to make a handsome dis tribution per capita for the whole country. It is a wonder that Butler and Kearney have not thought of this before. It would be no use to impose a tax on any title below the rank of Major, for Captain Vance, the appointment clerk of the Treas ury Department, says, so far as he can discover, he is the only ‘Captain’ left, either of the Union or Confed erate armies. Ttiis is sad, but in lieu of “Captains,” a tax might be laid “Judges.” Even the present dull times there are not less than two thousand “Judges” in Washington alone, and the “Generals” are sims ply countless. Many of them doubt less find it difficult to pay the tax, but sooner than part with the title they would manage to squeeze it out. Hundreds of thousands of peasants in Italy are without work, and those who are employed are glad to labor twelve hours a day for 19 cents and food, which invariably consists of dry black bread at 10 am., and aqua soup at the close of the day, the said soup being a bowl of hot water, stilt ed and flavored with a few drops of oIiVJ oil.

It Is the book of Wisdom that con demns all folly and makes the fool ish wise. It is the book of Truth, that de tects all errors. It is the book of Life, that shows the way from everlasting death. It is the most Compendious book in all the world. It contains the most ancient an tiquities, remarkable events, and wonderful occurrences. It points out the most heroic deeds and unparalleled wars. It explains the origin of the An gelic Myriads and Devilish Legions. It will instruct the most accom plished Mechanic and profound ist Artist. It will teach the best Rhetorician and exercise every power of the most skilled Arithmerieian. It will puzzle the wisest Anatomist and the nicest Critic. It exposes the subtle Sophist, and drives Diviners mad. It is a complete Code of Laws, a perfect body of Divinity, an une qualled narrative. It is a book of lives. It is a book of Travels. It is a book of Voyages. It is the best covenant that ever was agreed to, the best deed that ever was sealed. It is the best evideuce that ever was produced, the best will that ever was made. It is the best Testament that ever was signed. It is Wisdom to understand it: to be ignorant of it is to be wilfully destitute. It is the King’s best copy, and the Magistrate’s Rule- It is the Housewife’s best Guide, and the servants best Instructor. It is the Young Man’s best Com panion- It is the School-boy’s Spelling book, “It is the Learned Man’s Master piece. It contains a choice of Grammar for a Novice and a profound Myste ry for a Sage. It is the Ignorant Man’s Dictiona ry and the Wise Man’s Dictionary. It affords knowledge of Witty In ventions, and it is its own interpreter. It encourages the Wise, the War rior, and the Overcomer. It promises an eternal reward to the Excellent, the Conqueror, the Warrior, the Frevalant. And that which Crowns all is, that the author, without Partiality, with out Hypocracy, whom is no varia bleness, neither shadow of turning, Is God. The following remarkable event is reported in the columns of the Bue na Vista Argus : “On Thursday last Dr. Edwards was summoned to see Mrs. Swearen gin, who lives about six miles above Tazewell. She was not thought to he dangerously sick by herself or her family. Dr. Edwards found her sit ting up in.bed, talking and laughing with her family and some friends who were visiting her, and she ap peared to be unusually lively for a sick person. Soon as warmed suffi ciently he approached the bedside of his patient. aDd, to his great sur prise, discovered that Mrs. Swearen gin, though sitting up, talking and laughing, was actually dying. He gently informed her husband, who could not realize the fact. He thought the doctor was mistaken. Dr. Edwards prescribed for the' jovi al woman and left her without letting her know of her rapid dissolution. On his return home he met Dr. Hall, whom he asked to call and see his patient and aid her restoration, if possible. He, too, decided that she was dying. He left medicine and and directions to apply a blister at a certain time, but before the time ar rived she was dead.” The Washington correspondent of the Chicago Times thus writes “Alexander 11. Stephens, who is the most curiously observed member in the entire museum of statesmen, came in to-day in anew invaiid chair made of lightwood and cane work. It afforded a good frame work for the dingy black attire of the Georgia member. Stephens never looked so well in his life. There was actually a flush upon his sallow face as the members crowded about him to pay him that respectful attention that Stephens never fails to commend. This bundle of bonesand diseases, who has been dying for years while strong men go down about him day by day, was by a strange chance the hero of an absurd incident just after the paryer, when he broke the silence of the new sess ion by asking leave of absence for a muscular colleague who was detained at his house by sickness. Everybody smiled when the Georgia ghost piped such a request.” At the death of John Wesley, in 1791, there were in connection with Methodism 312 ministers, 115 circuits 16 mission stations and 79,000 mem bers. Now, including the Method ism of Great Britain, that of the United States of America, colonial Methodism and branch churches, it ii estimated that there are not less than 30,000 itinerant preachers, 60,- 000 local preachers and 19,000,000 adherents.' Soap boilersand bide workers have proved to be exempt from yellow fe ver. “OiVLT i RAILROAD MIT.'" I An engineer named Edward Os ! mond, was recently running a pas | senger express train through from Philadelphia to Jersey CMy. He j was one of the most experienced engineers. The train was making sixty miles an hour, when a heavy j connecting rod of the driving wheel on the right of the engine broke, and one end of it swinging upward with a terrible force, struck the cab be neath him, and shattered it into a thousand pieces. Osmond fell senseless on the en gine. He wus both bruised and scalded, and the pain quickly restor ed consciousness. The engine with its open throttle, was rushing for ward with frightful velocity to cer tain destruction. Inside the long train of cars men were talking, Smoking, laughing; women playing with their babies. The fireman let himself down from the tender and escaped. Osmond might have done the saute. Instead he crept along the side of the engine, carefully let himself into his place, and with his badly burned hands he reversed the engine and applied the airbrake. The train stopped. Peo ple inside the car went on with their reading and their gossip, and the children played with their mothers, who Pondered indifferently perhaps why the train was stopping again. They never will know how, in one brief minute, they passed over the very mouth of the grave, and were snatched back by the quiet, high courage of the poor workman. To our minds them is something finer in the calm integrity to duty in the hour of danger and death which issooften seen in the lives of obscure American mechanics who fill posts of responsi bility, than in the dash and sudden courage of many a daring soldier from the battlefield. —Philadelphia Press. The report of the committee ap pointed by resolution of the Genera; Assembly at an early day of ti e session, to inquire into the conduct and motives of Gov. Colquitt in endorsing the bonds of (lie Northeas tern railroad company is published in the Atlanta Constitution of the 13th, which, together with all the evidence and exhibits, makes eight full pages of that paper. The inves tigation which was perfect, rigid and searching, fully exonerates Gov. Col quitt from a! intent to do ai y wrong. 1 The majority report is signed by eleven of the joint committee, and the opinion of these gentlemen is expressed as follows: “The committee has not been able to find any proof that has, directly or indirectly, implicated Gov. Colquitt in this transaction inconsistent w’ith the honest and conscientious dis charge of the duties of his high posi tion. “They also find that he has not been guilty of any illegal conduct or corrupt practices in the matter of said endorsement. “In the opinion of this committee the reports and rumors that connect the name of the Governor with any improper conduct in the matter of the endorsement of the bonds of the Northeastern railroad company are vile and malignant slanders.” The minority report is signed by two of the committee, and while it views the whole case and criticises the course of Mr. Murphy, is explicit in an expression as to Gov. Colquitt’s conduct, and the gentlemen of the minority “brand as a libel the insin uation that the determination of Gov. Colquitt to endorse the bonds was induced by any sinister influence or unworthy motive. The joint committee on the census are preparing a hill to provide for the manner of taking the eleventh cen sus. The way in which the census is to be taken and the recommenda tions of the committee are of the highest importance from a political point of view. The greatest increase ©f population during the past ten years has been in the south and west. In some of the northern states there has been a decrease in the population The committee will of course either recommend an increase of the quota of population for representation in congress, or an increase of members of the house, or both. There are at present 292 representatives. Previ ous to the taking of the tenth census there were only 242 members of the house. It is believed that if an in crease of members is agreed upon, there will be in the neighborhood of 330 representatives in congress in 1882. In that case Georgia will he entitled to ten members. Miss Louise W. King, daughter of Hon. John P. King, of Augusta, Ga., died at midnight Saturday last. She was distinguished throughout the country tor devoted piety and disin terested benevolence, and was the founder of the Widows’ Home in the city of Augusta, and of the Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to An imals. The Augusta Chronicle pays a high tribute to hei memory in language as beautiful as true: “Her years were few,'but her good works many. She was as beautiful in per son as she was gifted in intellect. A more serene or angelic spirit never inhabited a tenement of clay; and yet her virtues were eminently prac tical, always manifested for the exul tation of the human race, and, as her zeal was unflagging, her life work was noble to the last. The Philadelphia Times having in timated that the people, in 1880, might deceive to have “a resolute government” in the person of Grant, the Cincinnati Enquirer gives the following samples of the last edition of that sort of government: “Washington, Sept. 11, 1861. “Marshal Mil ward : “Send William H. Winder to Foil Lafayette. “William H. Seward. Secretary of State.” “Department of State I “Washington, Sept. 11, 1861 ) “Maj Gen. N. P. Banks: “General—lf you eau arrest Dr. Charles Mac Gill of Hagerstown, Ma ryland, or cause him to be arrested and sent to Fort Macllenry, to be thence conveyed to Fort Lafayette, let it be done. “Wm. H. SfcWARI).” “Department of State, 1 “Washington, Oct. 11, 1861. j “To Edward J. Chase, United States Marshal, Northern Di-trict New York, Lock port: “Sir —Please confer with the Uni ted States district attorney for North ern District of New York, and arrest Francis D. Flanders and Joseph R. Flanders and convey them to Fort Lafayette. Respectfully, truly yours, “Wm. H. Seward.” “Washington City, Dec.. 19,1861. “To Detective Farley, New York City: “Hon. George W. Jones, late Sen ator in Congress from lowa and late United States to Bogota, leaves here this afternoon for New 7 York. Ar rest him and send him to Fort La fayette. “Wm. 11. Seward.” It is doubtful, to say the least, whether the people will ever volun tarily take any more of that kind of liberty which is regulated by Sew ard’s “little hell.” A BEAUTIFUL EXTRACT. The glory of summer has gone by— the beautiful greenness has become withered and dead. Were this all— were there no association of moral desolation—of faded hopes—of hearts withering in the bosoms of the living —connected with the decaying scen ery around us, we would not indulge in a moment’s melancholy. The sea son of flowers will come again—the streams will flow gracefuliy as before —the trees will again toss their cumbrous heads of greenness to the sunlight—and by mossy stone and winding rivulet the coming blos soms will start up at the bidding of their guardian. But the human heart has no change like that of nature. It has no returning spring time. Once blighted in its hour of freshness, it bears forever the mark of the spoiler. The dews of affection may fall, and the gentle rain of sym pathy be lavished upon it—but the stone root of blighted feeling will never again waken into life —nor the crushed flowers of hope blossom with their wonted beauty. IVXEU LIFE OF A NEWSPAPER. Rev. Joseph Cook is going to lec ture on “The Inner Life of a News* paper.” But did the reverend gen tlemun ever “jeff” for beer, play seven-up on the bed of a hand press, or hear the forty-horse power re marks made when a form is “pied?” We don’t believe he knows enough about *he inner life of a newspaper to truthfully portray the feelings of an editor who accepts a forty dollar box of patent medicines for one hundred dollars worth of advertising, and is compelled to either dispose of it for four dollars or take it himself. Pat. ent medicines is one of the articles of trade that his employees will not ac cept in payment of wages. They say the line must be drawn some where, and the draw is at “Brown’s Octagon Pills” and “Smith’s Para bolic Liver Searcher.” In the election for Senator, Gov ernor Hampton received every Dem ocratic vote in the General Assembly, with the exception of two colored votes cast for Mackey, and was after wards declared unanimously elected. This result is quite a triumph for the methods of reconstruction which Governor Hampton found in force in Georgia, and which, with consum mate tact, he adopted in his admin istration of affairs in South Carolina. These methods, says the Savannah News, are based upon the conviction that the negro is entitled to vote the Democratic ticket if he can be per suaded to do so, and that he is not to be controlled, in exercising the right of suffrage, by spies, inspectors or carpet-batrgers. South Carolina and the country need Hampton, and the general assembly never did a better day’s work than when it elected him to the senate. Robbing the graves of the dead seems to be a matter of common oc currence in portions of the Wist. In Detroit, Mich., two men were dis covered and fired upon just as they had exhumed the body of a women, and a horse and wagon standing near by were recognized as belonging to a well-known undertaker. At Kaokuk, la., it has been discovered that A. Mackey, of that city, has been receiving bodies of reeently buiied people—graves having been robbed at Beacon, la., and the bodies barreled and shipped to Mackey, who sold them to medical colleges. The wholesale resurrectionist was arrested but declared that he was innocent. [NUMBER 49.
