JEFFERSON, <3-^.
I'lt I WAV nOK\l.\<;, July 4, lA9O.
Washington Letter.
[From our regular Correspondent ]
Was i Hnoton. D. C„ July Ist, 1879.
Exactly when matters are coming to a
focus here seems to he one of the things that
“no fellow can find out.” The Democratic
Senators were not united upon the proposi
tion to adjourn promptly after the veto of
the judicial bill, leaving Haves and the courts
lo settle it between them, and they could not
have done so even if they had been united.
So many members of both houses are away
pleasure-hunting and sight-seeing, in Europe
and elsewhere, that the Democrats have no
rpiorhtn of their own, and can put through no
measure upon which the Republicans refuse
to vote; and the}' certainly would have re
fused to vote for adjournment after the veto.
So w. have had more planning and some
ftiore bills launched out. Dividing the court
and marshal appropriations narrows the issue
between Mr. Haves and Congress right down
to the question of marshals, and there is not
a Democratic Senator or Representative who
will vote one dollar for election deputies, un
der any circumstances. Hence this plan
makes the partv a unit, and if Mr. Hayes
vetoes either of these last bills, as he doubt
less will, nothing further will be done.
Touching tiiis matter of absenteeism, too
much cannot be said. The time of a pri
vate individual is his own, but the time of a
member of Congress belongs to the public,
whose servant lie is. Congressmen are elect
ed to guard certain interests and perform
certain duties, and when they slip off to
Europe to spend the liberal salaries paid
them, leaving a few to legislate, they are
guilty not only of a breach of faith, but of
downright robbery. The House of Repre
sentatives numbers, when full. 293 members.
On the vote to pass the judicial bill over the
veto, but 184 names were recorded. The
vote to adjourn sine die without further action,
was two better. Thus over 100 Represen
tatives are shown to lie absent. Of these the
largest proportion arc Republicans, but that
side still have enough to make or break a
quorum at pleasure, and as they are in the
minority it answers their purpose. The con
stituencies of Democratic members who have
thus been unfaithful to their trust should
settle with them. No man who has too much
private business lo attend the sessions of
Congress, has a right to accept the position,
and any man who neglects to attend because
he prefers to do something else, is unworthy
of it. There are plenty of good men who
would discharge the duties with ability and
fidelity for less than $5,000 per year.
The “ draw at sight” plan of campaign to
be carried on by the Republicans of Ohio
makes necessary contributions from head
quarters here, and the preliminaries are al
ready being worked up. John Sherman will
roll out his bVI, and his banker partners will
respond freely; but, with all this, the poor
clerks have got to ante up their little per cen
tage. Gen. Robinson, chairman of the Ohio
Republican Committee, has been here some
days to see about some speakers, lie says,
lie hadirtthoughtofanytheing else, of course ;
but no sooner bad be reached the Capital
than the Government clerks, particularly
those in the Treasury Department, spon
taneously crowded forward and insisted upon
being assessed for the purpose of raising a
campaign fund to eie~t the Republican ticket.
The information that the employes came
forward in this way is official; Secretary
Sherman says they did. Everybody knows
it must have required the greatest fortitude
on the part of the clerks to fight their way
through civil service reform orders and brave
the frowns of our great moral President; but
the Government clerk is always looking ;
around for some cheap way to dispose of a
portion of his salary, Which is too large, on
the average, to be handled conveniently, and
this is the cheapest way he can find, no doubt.
Rome of these clerks are so anxious to come
forward as voluntary contributors to cam
paign funds that they have been known to
neglect their wash bills. Of course, when
there was such an unanimous uprising of the
victims themselves in behalf of contributions.
Secretary Sherman could not, single handed,
undertake to repress the spontaneous en
thusiasm, and lie has therefore given reluctant
permission to the clerks in his department
to voluntarily contribute to the success of the
Sherman movement in Ohio. This decision
creates the g r eatest enthusiasm among the
clerks, and the}' will all give something.
None of them will be so parsimonious or so
wanting in patriotism as to refuse, for they
have seen examples made of misguided clerks
who declined to make voluntary contribu
tions to the campaign fund. And this re
minds me that an Ohio Republican has tele
graphed Ilaves to hold open the position of
Prince Imperial until lie can come on with
ltis recommendations.
Nothing new has transpired in the Conk
ling-Lamar unpleasantness. Conkling had
no more to sav after lie found Lamar meant
business. Rut while still in the pleasant
humor that lias made him so famous, he turned
up his nose at Don Cameron, who happened
to lie talking to a couple of Senators while
Conkling was speaking. He wheeled around
and told Don to “stop talking.” The latter
replied that Conkling might “go to hell,”
and now they are at outs. Conkling was the
first and only man in the United States
Senate who so utterly and thoroughly dis
gusted the representatives of the* press that,
in a body—Republican, Democratic and con
servative journalists—tendered him a public
demonstration of their regard by arising,
leaving their gallery, and refusing to listei
to his prosy and stupid speech. This was
done on Friday night last, and for a clean,
genteel and forcible rebuke, remains unpar
alleled in parliamentary history.
The poor old overworked and tired-out
Washington Monument Association is going
to take a rest. They have fiddled around
and looked at plans and specifications, dis
cussed propositions and been cussed them
selves, with about the same resuit that has
transpired these last. 25 or 30 t’ears. The
other day they eaiue together and solemnly
resolved that they couldn’t work during the
hot weather. What burlesque ! Rut they
will turn up their toes some of these fine days.
*ijd then perhaps anew lot may take hold of
this monument business and finish it. If not,
w'iieu these fellows are under the sod. I hope
tfomebody will propose to dedicate this rusty
old unfinished shaft to their memories.

The Railroad Meeting.
Elsewhere in this issue we give an official
account of the proceedings of this meeting.
The crowd in attendance was not large, but
those who were present were unanimous upon
the question of having a railroad running to
this place. The idea seems to be to make
the most -advantageous connection that we
can, so as to make the cost as light as pos
sible upon our people.
The mode of procedure adopted by the
meeting was for tlie Directors to investigate
and report at the next meeting as to routes,
terms, etc., and the probability of obtaining
outside aid. The routes proposed and most
favored were the one leading to Gainesville
and the one to Flowery Branch. Some were
in favor of Athens, but all agreed that what
they wanted was a railroad.
Of course nothing definite was accomplish
ed, and could not be until more information
could be furnished for the guidance of the
meeting. But we feel satisfied that, with or
dinary energy, put to work in the right direc
tion, the result will be a railroad in a few
years.
Our plan is to keep the matter continually
before the people, and never give up until it
is an accomplished fact. It may take years
to bring the matter to completion, but the
I
final result will be a railroad to Jefferson.
Messrs. Hill and Stephens Reconciled.
The Washington correspondent of the
Chronicle states in his letter published this ;
morning that there has been a reconcilement <
between Messrs. Ilill and Stephens, and tells j
how it was brought about through the good !
offices of a mutual friend. This friend from
time to time conveyed between the two some j
very laudatory expressions of each about the !
other, and finally informed Mr. Hill of Mr. i
Stephens' eulogies upon his recent speeches
in the Senate. Moved by these things to
forget his ancient wrath, Mr. Hill offered a
hand which Mr. Stephens cordially accepted,
and the two illustrious Georgians, so long
foes, are now fast friends. Every citizen of
the State will be rejoiced at this reconcilia
tion, appearing, as it does, to be sincere, and
promising to be permanent. It has been
brought about late in life, it is true, but not
too late to be productive of much good.
With, we believe, the exception of the time
when both strove against the madness of
secession, the two men have always been
political opponents, and their personal re
lations have never been very friendly. Be
fore the war the result of personalities on the
the stump led to the sending of a challenge
by Mr. Stephens, but Mr. Ilill, with a con
tempt for the Code as commendable as it was
at that time rare, declined to settle the dif
ferences between them by a resort to mortal
combat. About five years ago Mr. Ilill made
a speech—taking, we believe, Gen. Lee for
his subject—in which he used expressions
that Mr. Stephens construed into reflections
on his perfect loyalty to idle Confederate
Government during the war, and a long and
exceedingly bitter newspaper controversy
was the result. Mr. Stephens rang the
changes on “ carmagnoles,” •* black flags”
and ” Munchauseuisms,” and Mr. Hill assert
ed the issue to be “ proof, retraction or in
famy.” The violence of the discussion final
ly exhausted the disputants, and since that
time they have not been on speaking terms.
As we have said before, every Georgian
should be glad that these two men have at
last buried the animosities of a quarter of a
century and finally become friends. Both
are men of rare ability, both occupy com
manding positions in the councils of the
Nation, and firmly united by the bonds of
friendship they can render the most valuable
service to the South and to the cause of Con
stitutional Government all over the Union.
But may we not indulge the hope that the
good work of pacification so happily com
menced will be extended a little further, and
then the kind offices of some judicious mutual
friend will close the breach existing between
Mr. Ilill and another distinguished Georgian
j —the Governor of the State—Gen. Colquitt,
j There surely can not be any reason why the
unhappy differences between these gentlemen
should be longer perpetuated, and the people
of the State would hail their extinguishment
with joy. Let them imitate Messrs. Hill and
Stephens, and be reconciled thoroughly and
at once. —Chronicle c$- Constitutionalist.
IVlaysville Items.
A short time ago the Progress was inquir
ing for its Maysville correspondents. I
rather suspect that they had gone into sum
mer quarters, and had no use for that imple
ment il more powerful than the sword ;” and
yours are probably in the same neighbor
hood.
The truth is, that items are not easily to
get at and it would be contrary
to all precedent for a newspaper writer to
adopt the motto of Napolean I, and say, ‘‘l
will find or make” an item. No, sir ; nothing
but truth, solid truth, ever flows from a re
portorial pencil.
Our hens positively refuse to hatch two
headed or four-legged chickens, while ordi
nary chickens bring only ten cents apiece ;
snakes of unusual size will not come up and
be killed ; times are two hard for triplets, but
Seay’s cow presented him with a pair of twin
calves, and, since the whisky traffic has been
driven out, not even a fight can be gotten up
for the sake of items. How selfish people
and things generally are!
One question of grave importance has, how
ever, created a momentary excitement. It is
, this : Are a bull-bat and a whippoorwill the
same ? Each side of the question finds able
and unyielding advocates, and the probabili
ty is that nothing short of a speech from a
bull-bat, in these words: “whip-poor-will,”
will decide the question.
Another question has but one side : Are
there any fleas in Maysville ? There may
be a few unfeeling men ready to assail the
soft impeachment; nevertheless, the sup
, ply of this festive insect far exceeds the de
mands.
Wheat lias turned out well all through this

THE
t J RIENDI
A WONDERFUL DISCOVERY l
CARBOLIMEI
A Deodorized extract of Petroleum,
r
The Only Article that Will Re
store Hair on Bald Heads.
What the World has been
Wanting for Centuries.
The greatest disco very of our day, so far as a
large portion of humility is concerned, is CAR
BOLINF. an article prepared from petroleum, and
which effects a complete and radical core i-n case of
baldness, or where the hair, owing to diseases of
the scalp, has become thin and tends to fall out.
[t is also a speedy restorative, and while its use se
cures a luxuriant growth of hair, it also brings back
the natural color, and give# the most complete sat
isfaction in the using. The falling out of the hair,
the accumulations of dandruff, and the premature
change in color arc all evidences of a diseased con
dition of the scalp and the giant.s which nourish the
hair. To arrest these causes the article used must
possess medical as well as chemical virtues, and the
change must begin under the ?ca!j> to he of perma
nent and lasting benefit.. Such an nrtiev is CAR
BOLINE, and, like many other wonderful discov
eries, it is found to consist of elements almost in
their natural state. Petroleum oil is the article
which is made to work such extraordinary results ;
butitisaftei it lots been chemically treated and
completely deodorized that it is in proper condition
for the toilet. It was in far-off Russia that the
effect of petroleum upon tiro ha'rwas first observed,
a Government officer having noticed that n partially
bald-headed servant of his, when trimming tho
lamps, had a habit of wiping his oil-besmeared
hands in his scanty locks, and the result was in a
few months a much finer head of black, glossy hair
than he ever had before. The oil was tried on
horses and cattle that had lost their hair from the
cattle plague, and the results were as rapid as they
were marvelous. The manes and even the tails of
horses, which had fallen out, were completely re
stored in a few weeks. These experiments were
heralded to the world, hut the knowledge was prac
tically useless to the prematurely bald and gray, as
no one in civilized society could tolerate the use of
rollned petroleum as a dressing for the hair. But tho
skill of one of our chemi.-t has overcome the diffi
culty, and by apr ce k . vn only to himself, he
has, after very elaborate and cost 1 y experiments, suc
ceeded ill deodorizing refined petr luma, which
renders it susceptible of being li milled as daintily
as the famous can decolojne. Tlnsixpcriments with
the deodorized liquid on the human hair were at
tended with the most astonishing results few
applications, where the hair was thin and falling,
gave remarkable tone and vigor to tho scalp and
hair. Every particle of dandrulT disappears on
the first or second dressing, and the liquid so search
ing in its nature, seems to p.metrite to the roots at
once, and set up a rad cal change from the start. It
is well known that the most beautiful colors are
made from petroleum, and, by some mysterious
operation of nature, tlie use of this article gradu
ally imparts a beautiful light-brown color to the
hair which by continued use. deepens to a black.
The color remains permanent for an indefinite length
of time, and the change is so gradual that the most
intimate friends can scarcely detect its progress.
Iu a word, it is the most wonderful discovery of
the age, and well calculated :<> make the prema
turely ba.d and gray r jo.ee.
\Ve advise our readers to give it a trial, feeline
satisfied l h and oae upp.bullion \m i e -a . i ;e.v i!i m of
is wonderful effects. — Pt'Uburjk Coininerciol of
Oct. 22, 1877.
The article is telling its own story in the hands of
thousands who are using it with the most gratifying
and encouraging results :
W. IT. Buii.t. & Cos.. Fifth Avenue Pharmacy, says,
“We have sold preparations for the hair for upward
of twenty years, but have never had one to sell as
well or give sic h universal satisfaction. We there
fore recommend ii with confidence to our friends
and tho general public.”
Mr. Gustavcs F. llai.i,, of the Oates Opera
Troupe, writes: “ After six weeks’ use lam con
vinced, as arc also my comrades, that your ‘Carbo
line’ lias and is producing a wonderful growtti of
hair where 1 hail none for years.”
C. 11. Smith, of the Jennie lliuht Combination,
writes: “ After using your * t’arboline’ three weeks
I am convinc and that unit! heads can be * re-haired.'
It's simply wonderful in my case.”

“ Your ‘ Carholine’ has restored my hair after every

Joseph E. Pon and, nttornev-at-law, No. Attleboro,

my head lias been as smoo Ii and free from hair as a

REMARKABLE CURE OF SCROFULA, &c.
CASE OF COL. -J. C. BRANSON.
Kingston, Ga., September 15, 1871.
Gents:— For sixteen years J have beenagreat
sufferer from Scrofula in its most distressing
forms. I have been confined to my room and bed
for fifteen years with scrofulous ulcerations. The
most approved remedies for such cases had been
used, and the most eminent physicians consulted,
without any decided benefit. Thus prostrated,
distressed, desponding. I was advised hy Dr.
Aj'er, of Floyd County. Ga.. to commence the use
of your Compound Extract Stillingia. Language
is as insufficient to describe the relief I obtained
from the use of the Stillingia as it is to convey an
adequate idea of the intensity of my suffering be
fore using your medicine; sufficient to say, 1
abandoned all other remedies and continued the
use of your Extract of Stillingia. until I can say
truly, “I am cured of all pain, ,r of all disease,
with nothing to obstruct the active pursuit of ray
profession. More than eight months have elapsed
since this remarkable cure, without any return ©S'
the disease.
For the truth of the above statement, I refer to
any gentleman in Bartow County, Ga., and to the
members of the bar of Cherokee Circuit, who are
acquainted with me. I shall ever remain, with
the deepest gratitude,
l'our obedient servant,

GENTS :—My daughter was taken on the- 25th
.day of June, 1863, wit!) what was supposed to be
Acute Rheumatism, and was treated for the same
I with no success. In March, following, pieces of
jbonc began to work out of the right arm. a-nd con
tinued to appear till all the bone from the elbow
[to the shoulder joint came out. Many pieces of
Ibone came out of‘the right foot and leg. The case
| was then pronounced one of White Swelling. Af
iter having been confined about six years to her
bed, and the case considered hopeless, I was in
duced to try Dr. Pemberton's Compound Extract
[of Stillingia, and was so well satisfied with its ef
fects that I have continued the use of it until the
present.
My daughter was confined to her bed aboutsix
[years before she sat up or even turned over with
out help. She now sits up all day. and sews most
iof her time—lias walked across the room. H er
jgeneral health is now good, and I believe she will,
as her limbs gain strength, walk well. 1 attribute
I her recovery, with the blessing of God, to the use
;of your invaluable medicine.
With gratitude, I am yours truly.

OUR PATRONS will please remember that the
condition of our reduced rates is cash pay
ment. As in most other schools, the tuition fees
of each month are due at the end thereof; “
not promptly paid the usual bank interest will be
charged. If paid monthly the burden would no
be felt by our patrons. The cash is required oi
us for every thing, and though we would liko to
indulge our patrons as formerly, ice cannot pos
sibly do so, especially at our present low rates.
We hope, therefore, all will call by T or before the
end of the term and arrange to settle by cash, >
possible , or on some cash basis. .
