Mr. Stephens is better.
—Con gress will adjourn for the Christinas
holidays.
—lt turns out that the Virginia Radicals
are the principal repudiationists.
—The Cincinnati Southern Railway lias
been completed to Chattanooga, Tennessee.
—Gen. Grant is on a quandary about his
Southern trip. We guess he is afraid of the
Georgia Ku Klux; probably the Atlanta
Medical students.
—Owing to the rise in Railroad stock, the
firm of Jay Cook & Cos., the great Radical
hanking house of Grant’s first administration,
is again on its feet.
—From present, indications it appears that
the Georgia boys are sharing along with the
Republicans some of the fat places to be
picked up around Washington.
—Senator Bayard is still doing all in his
power to promote the interest of the bond
holders to the detriment of the majority of
the citizens of the United States.
—The will of Mrs. Dorsey, the lady who
gave her property to ex-President Davis, will
be conteste 1 on the grotin l that the donor
was of unsound min 1 at the time the will was
made.
—The Chronicle $ Constitutionalist esti
mates that Augusta has received a million of
dollars more this season for cotton than she
did last year, and that her securities have
advanced in like proportion.
—Rev. W. P. Pledger, of the North Geor
gia Conference, committed suicide, at the
Markham House, in Atlanta, last Saturday,
by cutting his throat with a pocket knife. It
is sup|K>sed that he was insane.
—So far, all hands have agreed to let the
financial questions alone, except Senator Ba
yard and one or two more members. What
the Democratic party will do upon the sub
ject has not yet been fully determined.
—Monroe lial a big jail delivery last
week: seven prisoners escaped. Most of
them had just been sentenced by Judge
Erwin at the adjourned term of Walton
Superior Court. We guess they will put up
n jail uow that will not be so easy to get
out of.
—There is a man in Tennessee who re
fuses to recognize the fact that slavery is
abolished. He has two negro girls in bond
age and refuses to release them, and the
trouble appears to be that the United States
Court cannot touch his case, as they have
dismissed it.
—Now that wc have a railroad, we hope
to see a circus visit our town occasionally.—
Hartwell Sun.
This lets the cat out, and reveals the true
cause of Hartwell’s clamor for a railroad;
but it is a narrow gauge, and there are no
narrow gauge circuses.
—The Constitution is still at work on the
Georgia Western Railroad, and with every
prospect of success at present. The portion
of the road bed already built has been
purchased at reasonable figures. A company
will be formed and the road put through.
Atlanta don’t propose to let King Cole or
any other magnate give her the go-by in the
railroad schemes now on foot.
—The Warrouton Clipper says that a
secret effort is in process of operation to
secure a delegation from each county in
favor of Gov. Colquitt to go to the uext
nominating Convention. We give this for
what it is worth, but wo don’t think the
people of Jackson will stand such kind of
work. If Jackson county sends a delegation
let it go untrarumcled. The best is what
we want.
—President Wadlcy, of the Central Rail
road, the biggest corporation in Georgia, says
that this State does not need any more farm
ers. and that there are more laborers in her
limits now than there is brain to manage
them. Mr. Wad ley may know all about this
matter, hut we propose to disagree with him
i|>on the subject. Georgia docs need emi
grants and laborers, and the necessity is so
great that it stares us in the face upon all
aides wherever we go. Mr. Wad ley was evi
dently in a pet when lie said it; no doubt
repining over the fact that Lc could not get
control of all the Railroads in the State.
—Most of the papers, Nrth ami South,
have been making estimates of the tide of
financial prosperity that is now sweeping
over our country, and we have no authority
to make us disagree with them, but we must
remark that the so-called prosperity has not
reached this section of Northeast Georgia,
Cotton has advanced, it is true, but our
people had none of it to sell at the high
prices, and upon all sides we see them
making preparations for hard times next
year, when what little money there is now
in circulation will be gone or hoarded up
where they cannot reach it, from the fact
that they will have nothing to sell until the
next crop of cotton is made.

Washington Letter.
[From our regular Correspondent.]
Washington, D. C.. Dec. 15th, 1879.
Things are moving quietly and serenely at
the capital. Beyond the passage of a joint
resolution to adjourn for a Christmas holiday
’ on the 19th instant, and the confirmation of a
couple of appointments by the Senate, nothing
specially noteworthy has been done by Con
gress. I'iie recess is to last until January
1 6th —two weeks. Meanwhile, the House
Appropriations Committee will endeaver to
get three of their small bills through before
adjournment. The deficiency bill for the
payment of marshals’ fees will not be acted
upon until after the recess. There was some
•surprise at the exceedingly prompt and
entirely unanimous confirmation of Secretary
McCrary to be United State judge, but the
Democratic Senate is not disposed to be
captious. Ex-Senator Ramsey’ was hoisted
into McCrary’s place in a jiffy, and entered
at once upon the duties of the War Office.
This will put Gen. Tecumseh Sherman in a
belter humor than he has been recentlv, for
it is quite generally believed that the Secretary
will be little more than a chief clerk, while
Sherman bosses the Army and the Depart
ment. lie did not have full control under
McCrary, for the latter is a man of brains
and purpose, and there was, I understand,
some jealousy’. The Shermans like power and
command—especially does the General—and
between Tecumseh and John the Government
is now pretty much under the control of the
family’. Hayes and Ramsey are figure
heads.
As little as has been done in Congress,
some humorous interchanges of retort and
banter between members have occurred. The
other day Mr. Frye, of Maine, in the discus
sion of the bill to regulate the compensation
of the Supreme Court reporter, got in a neat
bit of repartee on Gen. Keifer, who said that
while there might be 4,000 men in his State
of Ohio competent to perform the duties of
this clerkship, he would not consider any of
them paid according to their deserts at $4,000.
Mr. Frye quickly answered that so far as he
could ascertain, the vast majority of the 4,000
competent men of Ohio were already com
fortably installed in fat offices. Keifer made
a poor mouth at this, and accused Frye of
stealing Democratic thunder. Gen. Tom
B r owne, of Indiana, in speaking on the same
question, remarked that lhe services of a
great many of the statesmen now in Congress
would be dear to the country at $2,500 a
y r ear. “ Speak for yourself,’’ shouted a mem
ber on the Republican side. •• I do speak
for myself,” meekly replied Thomas. And
I think he spoke the solemn truth, too.
It is stated that the Supreme Court is about
ready to announce a decision as to the con
stitutionality of the Federal election laws, and
nothing bearing upon them will lie taken iyp
in Congress until this is known. Report savs
the court is equally div’ded, Justices Clifford,
Field. Bradley and Harlan that the* laws aro
unconstitutional, while Chiof Justice Waite
and Judges Strong, Miller and Swayne hold
the contrary opinion. Justice Hunt is off the
bench by reason of ill health. Such a divi
sion of the Judges on the question, while
making a tie, would really leave the laws in
force. It is not expected that Justice Hunt
will ever resume his place. In fact, it is ru
mored that his resignation lias been tendered,
and that Mr. Hayes has offered the vacant
place to Senator Edmunds. They deny this
at headquarters ; nevertheless it is generally
believed. Should Mr. Edmunds take a seat
on the bench, the elec! ion laws and all the
other partisan legislation of the Republican
party would be sustained. It would bo an
unusual thing for the Senate to refuse to
confirm a prominent Senator appointed to
any other office, but I really do not see how
a Democratic Senate could take the responsi
bility of permitting such an intense partisan
to be seated on the Supreme bench, notwith
standing his ability.
Schuyler Colfax, one of the radical states
men who dropped suddenly into oblivion,
lectured here one night this week. There is
nothing wonderful in this, except that the
mention of his name recalls the fate of states
men who find SI,OOO notes under their break
fast plates, and lie about it afterwards. Some
body has just related an old story about Col
fax. illustrating his demagogical ways and
lack of firmness or principle. lie was always
in dread of the people and afraid of offending
them. Once he was charged with a Post
Office bill, and someone, as a joke, intro
duced an amendment to the effect that post
masters should be elected by the people, and
Mr. Colfax, to the surprise of the friends of
the bill, voted for the amendment. When
those who had deputed him to present the
bill reproached him. the}’ did not hesitate to
charge him with cowardice in voting for so
ridiculous an amendment for fear of offending
the voters. It was necessary next day to get
rid of the amendment be r ore the bill could
be carried. On another occasion he received
from some individual, who firmly believed in
a Representative in Congress being the ser
vant of the people, a box of prairie chickens,
accompanied by the audacious request,
“ Please dispose of these to the best advantage
and account to me.” After a moment’s hes
itation, Mr. Colfax went to the nearest res
taurant, disposed of the fowls, and enclosed
a check for the amount to the owner.
Governor-elect Fostsr. of Ohio, was here
the other day, and told an interviewer that
Garfield had a pretty sure tiling of the Sen
atorship. This reminds me of a scene in the
House on Monday last: “I object to the
reading of the memorial,” said INIr. Garfield,
when Mr. Aiken, of South Carolina, desired
to have a paper sent to the Clerk’s desk read.
” Well. then, if you do,” said Mr. Aiken.
“ I will withdraw- it.” “ What, is it, any
way?” said Mr. Garfield. 44 Why,’* replied
Aiken, “ it is a memorial from the Patrons of
Husbandry.” “Oh! ah! ahem! I with
draw the objection,” said Mr. Garfield, and
the memorial was read. Pnoxo.

Messrs. Malt Walker and George Mans

The Atlanta Constitution,
During the coming year—a year that will wit
ness the progress and culmination of the most in
teresting political contest that has ever takon
place in this country—every citizen and every
thoughtful person will be compelled to rely upon
the newspapers for information. Why not get the
best? Abroad The Constitution is recognized,
referred to and quoted from as the leading south
ern journal—as the organ and vehicle of the best
southern thought and opinion—and at home its
columns are consulted for the latest news, the
freshest comment, and for all matters of special
and current interest. The Constitution con
tains more and later telegraphic news than any
other Georgia paper, and this particular feature
will be largely added to during the coming year.
All its facilities for gathering the latest news from
all parts of the country will be enlarged and sup
plemented. The Constitution is both chroni
cler and commentator. Its editorial opinions, its
contributions to the drift of current discussion, its
humorous and satirical paragraphs, are cqpieti
from ono end of the country to the other. It aims
always to he the brightest and the best—newsy;
original and piquant. It aims particularly to give
the news impartially and fully, and to keep its
readers informed of the drift of current discussion
by liberal but concise quotations from all its con
temporaries. It aims, in short, to more than ever
deserve to he known as “ the leading southern
newspaper.” Bill Arp will continue to contribute
his unique letters, which grow in savory humor
week by week. ” Old Si” will add his quaint fun
to the collection of good things, and ‘’Uncle Re
mus’’ has in preparation a series of negro myth
legends, illustrating the folk-lore ofthc old plan
tation. In every respect The Constitution for
ISSO will he better than ever.
The Weekly Constitution is a carefully ed
ited compendium of the news of the week, and
contains the best and freshest matter to b<s found
in any other weekly from a daily office. Its news
and miscellaneous contents arc the freshest and
its market reports the latest.

THE SUN FOR 188a
The Sun will deal with the events of the year
1880 in its own fashion, now pretty well under
stood by everybody. From January 1 until De
cember 31, will be conducted as a newspaper,
written in the English language, and printed for
the people.
Asa newspaper, The Sun believes in getting
all the news of the world promptly, and present
ing it in the most intelligible shape—the shape
.that will enable its readers to keep well abreast
of the age with the least unproductive expenditure
of time. The greatest iuterest to the greatest
number—that is, the law controlling its daily
make-up. It now has a circulation very much
larger than that of any other American newspa
per, and enjoys an income which it is at all times
prepared to spend liberally for the benelit of its
readers. People of all conditions of life and all
ways of thinking buy and read The Sun ; and
they all derive satisfaction of some sort from its
columns, for they keep on buying and reading it.
In its comments on men and affairs, The Sun
believes that the only guide of policy should be
common sense, inspired by genuine American
principles and backed by. honesty of purpose.
For this reason it is, and will continue to bo,
absolutely independent of party, class, clique,
organization, or interest. It is for all, but of
none. It will continue to praise what is good
and reprobate what is evil, taking care that its
language is to the point and plain, beyond the
possibility of being misunderstood. It is unin
fluenced by motives that do not appear on the
surface ; it has no opinions to sell, save those
which may be had by any purchaser with two
cents. It hates injustice and rascality even more
than it hates unnecessary words. It abhors
frauds, pities fools, and deplores nincompoops of
every species. It will continue throughout the
year 1880 to chastise the first class, instruct the
secondhand discountenance the third. All honest
men, with honest convictions, whether sound or
mistaken, are its friends. And The Sun makes
no bones of telling the truth to its friends and
about its friends whenever occasion arises for
plain speaking.
These are the principles upon which The Sun
will be conducted during the year to come.
The year 1880 will be one in which no patriotic
American can afford to close his eyes to public
affairs. It is impossible to exaggerate the impor
tance of the political events which it has in store,
or the necessity of resolute vigilance on the part
of every citizen who desires to preserve the Gov
ernment that the founders gave us. The debates
and acts of Congress, the utterances of the press,
the exciting contests of the Republican and Dem
ocratic parties, now nearly equal jn strength
throughout the country, the varying drift of
public sentiment, will all bear directly and effect
ively upon the twenty-fourth Presidential election,
to be held in November. Four years ago next
November the will of the nation, as expressed at
the polls, was thwarted by an abominable con
spiracy, the promoters and beneficiaries of which
still hold the offices they stole. Will the crime
of 1876 be repeated in 18S0? The past decade of
years opened with a corrupt, extravagant, and
insolent Administration intrenched at Washing
ton. The Sun did something toward dislodging
the gang and breaking its power. The same men
are now intriguing to restore their leader and
themselves to places from which they were driven
by r the indignation of the people. Will they suc
ceed? The coming year will bring the answers
to these momentous questions. The Sun will
be on hand to chronicle the facts as they are
developed, and to exhibit them clearly and fear-
lessly in their relations to expediency and right.
Thus, with a habit of philosophical good humor
in looking at the minor affairs of life, and in great
things a steadfast purpose to maintain the rights
of the people and the principles of the Constitution
against all aggressors, The Sun is prepared to
write a truthful, instructive, and at the same time
entertaining history of 18S0.
Our rates of subscription remain unchanged.
For the Daily Sun, a four-page sheet of twenty
eight columns, the price by mail, post-paid, is
55 cents a month, or 80.50 a year ; or, including
the Sunday paper, an eight-page sheet of fifty-six
