CHBISIHAS.
Before our next weekly issue, another
Christmas will have come and gone for
ever. Nearly two thousand years ago,
the joyful words “Peace on earth, and
good will to mau!” was proclaimed.
In England and the Continent, prepare
ttory to Christmas, the bells are rung
it midnight and the churches are mag
nificently adorned. The revellers par
:ake of a collation, the larder being filled
with capons, hens, turkeys, geese,
lucks, &c.
On Christmas eve the bells are rung;
On Ohrlstmaß eve the mass Is sung;
Power lays his rod of rule aside,
And oeremony doffs hts pride,
All hail with uncontrolled delight,
And general voice, the happy night
That to the oottage. as the crown,
Brought tidings of salvation down.
In this, the season of festivity, when
hand grasps hand with an increased
strength and the current of life runs
warmer through the veins, let us re
member the poor, the sick, the stranger
and the captive, and Imitate the exam
ple of Him who went about doing good.
While we are surrounded by blessings,
it will be well it we do not forget that
He fed the hungry, clothed the naked,
comforted the afflicted, and that we who
can, should go and do likewise.
To all our friends and patrons, we
wish a merry Christmas and a happy
New Year.
Building Churches for the Col
ored People. —The whites of Bethel
Baptist Church, ia this county, are
building a neat house for the blackß.
The property is deeded to them forever,
on condition that they remain connect
ed with the Southern Baptists. Rev.
C. C. Willis gave the ground. Aside
from Christianity, the general adoption
of some such plan would do more to j
effect a political revolution in favor oi ’
Democracy than anything else. The j
colored churches in this city have done j
our cause great harm. It is an influ- |
ence we have alway to .labor to over- i
come. Turner, tho colored Presiding
Elder, rules the Methodists, and Rucker
ihe Baptists—men they can’t control.
Os course, there are exceptions. The
Southern people should endeavor to
remove the churches from their influ
ence. Instead of preaching religion
they are continually harping on radical
politics. When the blacks apply to the
whites for assistance aid should be
granted only on condition that the
former should separate themselves from
these northern influences and organi
zations, and have southern churches
and associations. By building them
neat houses, under such terms, the
whole country would be benefited.

The Warrenton Clipper has this: A
few days since, General Toombs was ex
pressing his opinion of a few public
men in Georgia, especially! that class
known as “Democrats so-called,’’ to a
! ii. .ds .a lie Kimball House, anil
he alluded -o Joseph E. Brown—tue
immaculate Joseph-in such severe terms
that au enthusiastic religion friend of
Joe’s remarked to the General:
“Ah, General, Joseph E. Brown is a
christiau, and when that great day shall
come, in which the earth shall give up
her dead, and all mankind shall be sum
moned before the great White Throne
to answer for the deeds done in the bo
dy, Joseph E. Brown will head a larg
er column than Gen. Toombs,”
“Yes,” replied the General, “and
when God Almighty sees that column,
with Joe Brown at its head, approach
ing, he will give this command : Head
of column to the left’”

officials from leaving’ the State except
with the consent of the Legislature.”

Tbe Bade Boy In the Apple Tree.
We have read somewhere, probably
in old Noah Webster’s Spelling Book,
(New Edition,) of a rude boy who,
when in the act of stealing apples, was
suddenly overcome like Saul of Tar
sus, with a Bash of conviction of guilt
and remorse, and as suddenly resolved
to repent. He let go the golden fruit he
had feloniously plucked—quickly came
down and piously kneeled at the roots
of the tree and prayed that if he was
ever alike criminal, he hoped someone
would kill him. A little David con
cealed in the bushes was watching the
motions, and at the polite request,
threw a stone which struck the apple
stealing Goliah in the centre of his fore
head. The boy for a moment thought
he saw a million of blazing stars and
comets dancing jigs, but soon he appre
ciated and accepted the situation and
bawled out—“ What he had asked in
fun, tome durned fool had given him in
earnest!”
Grant is very like that wicked boy.
He, and his friends, had preyed so long
on the treasuries and received so many
little presents of houses, horses, &c.,
that in a fit of repentance he concluded
he would recommend a reform in tbe
civil service of the Government. The
fear, too, of Tweed, and the other
“Slippery Dicks” of Tammany, was
before his eyes. He imagined his rec
ommendations would be received as
mere official formalities, worth nothing
and meaning less. He had no idea that
the exposure of corruption begun in
New York, would reach Washington,
and that what he asked in “fun,” some
“ durned ” Radical fools would give him
in “earnest.”
Senator Trumbull was watching the
motions. He guthers up a stone and
flings it, and it strikes Radicalism in the
centre of the forehead. He introduces
a proposition to raise a Joint Commit
tee with authority to make thorough in
vestigation into all branches of the
service, and to report what reforms are
necessary to secure an honest Adminis
tration. The Senatorial Grant Ring
shuts the door against the proposed in
vestigation by Trumbull, notwithstand
ing the assumed virtue and hypocritical
recommendations of the President. On
Monday last, therefore, Conkling
offered a resolution for the appointment
of an investigation committee, and Mr.
Anthony offered a list of seveu Senators
to compose the committee, six of whom
were Radicals who had only three or
four days previously voted against any
investigation at all. The resolution at
once caused a renewal of the debate on
the frauds in the public service, and
before the Senate rose in the afternoon,
the Democratic Senators with the small
minority of honest Republicans who
were opposed to thieving, even when
committed by Radicals, had so far
gained thoir point as to have Mr. Cas
serly, a Democrat, added to the com
mittee. This will be but a whitewash
ing committee, but it will lead to such
a full, free and impartial exposure as
will make Grant see, worse than a big
drunk, a million of stars and comets
wheeling unshaken in the immense void
of his skull. He ia like the drunken
sailor in a snow storm—if he lets go the
mast of a corrupt committee, he will he
washed overboard, if he holds on, he
will freeze to death in his torn and
patched breeches.
We clip the following from the Pittu
burg Commercial as a specimen of the
sentiments of a dozen or more other
Radical papers:
“Tne Administration members of the
Senate who resist Mr. Trumbull’s prop
osition to inquire into certain defalca
tions under the Government, render
themselves liable to be misunderstood,
and General Grant to unjust criticism,
by exposing themselves and the Ad
ministration to the charge of fearing
the truth.”
Either the Thieves and Robbers or
Urant Hast Go Overboard.
Our Troubles with Spain.
Special to tho Louisvile Courier-Journal.
Washington, December 17.—Letters
have been received hero during the last
day or two by leading Republican Sen
ators advising strongly against the
course which they have taken during
the past week on the proposed investi
gation into the charges of corruption
against tbe administration. These let
ters state that the people are unable
to understand the technicalities arising
between a standing and a special com
mittee, except bo far as they serve to
show that the action of the Senate has
restricted investigation, and in this
view of it they urge that the fullest
inquiry be authorized for every depart
ment of the public service. The couu
try will look upon any other course as
AN EVASION OF THE CHARGES
made against the administration. A
Republican Senator advised the Presi
dent yesterday to take a prompt stand
upon this question, and to send a spe
cial message to Congress asking that an
investigation be ordered. It is not
probable, however, that he will take
such a course, but leave the Senate to
settle the issue in its own way. There
is universal opposition to the standing
commutes agreed on in the caucus on
Friday, and an effort will probably be ]
made iu the Senate to-morrow, when 1
the question of instructing the com
mittee comes up, to change its com- |
plexion.
VENEZUELA.
It is,the intention of the Foreign
Affairs Committee ot the House to take
prompt action on the course of the
Government of Venezuela in refusing
to abide by the obligations of its
treaty of 1860 to pay the just claims
awarded to citizens of the United States.
The attention ol the Venezuela author
ities has been repeatedly called to this
matter by the Executive, and in the
late Congress it was proposed that our
claim be enforced by a fleet of vessels
of war.
IMMIGRATION.
It is understood that, after the holi
day recess, the President will doubtless
submit a special message to Congress
recommending legislation on the immi
gration question, the object being to
take it from the control of the States,
to remedy alleged abuses iu the local
system. The New York city delega
tion are very much opposed to a change,
and deny that impositions are practiced
upon this class.
SENATOR-ELECT TANCE.
It appears not to be true that Demo
cratic Senators have written a letter
asking Senator-elect Vance to resign in
order that the North Carolina Legisla
ture may elect a Senator who can take
the oath. There has boon considerable
toik about m«. pit), .i. i_, .>( ifuca a itt
ur, but none lias liteu written. If
Congress passes a general amnesty biii,
Mr. Vance will be eligible, otherwise
not. Messrs. Sumuer, Morton, Slew art,
Edmunds and other leading Radicals
are opposed to aiiowiugany of the old
prominent Southern men to come beck
to Congress.
SPANISH AFFAIRS.
The Government doss not lay very :
serious stress upon the rumors tnat ■
Spain has threatened, through her, to
represent to the Geneva conference
that, while the United States complains
liberally that England did not exercise
due diligence to prevent the escape oi
the Alabama, she has within a recent
period almost ignored that principle by
exercieing little or no diligence to pre
vent Cuban privateers from leaving our
ports. If it be true such representations
are to be made, the official facts will
show that our Government exercised
the severest scrutiny over the Cuban
privateers, and put two of them on sus
picion almost into a United States
court, where they were held several
months, and then were released because
the Government could not make out a
sufficient case against them.
WHY THEY SHRINK FROM IN
VESTIGATION .
Paasaeo from the Tram ball Debate.
The debate which, at intervals, for
several days past has been going on in
the Senate, and which is not yet con
cluded, naturally enough challenges the
attention of the whole country, and
evokes an interest not inspired by the
merely rontine of business which usual
ly ushers in a session of Congress. The
debate and proceedings touch, indeed,
a vital point, on which public opinion
is more unanimous, perhaps, than on
any other, namely, the necessity for a
thorough reform in the public service ol
the country.
We regret that our limited space for
bids a fuller and more satisfactory re
port of this acrimonious debate, carried
on almost exclusively by the Republi
can Senators. A few passages will in
dicate its temper. Patterson (Rep.,) of
New Hampshire, was manly enough to
tell a bit of truth :
I say that there are inspectors in the
Custom House in New York who sta
ted before the committee, under oath,
that in violation of their official oaths,
and in violation of the laws of the land,
they had taken a bribe, and that they
took bribes every time they discharged
a vessel, and I say further, that the
agents cf the steamship companies told
me that they could not get their vessels
discharged without bribing officials.
Mr. Sumner: I should like to know
whether these men are continued in
office.
Mr. Patterson : I have no knowledge
of their having been removed. I know
nothing about it.
Rather damaging evidence, we should
suppose, against “ the best civil service
in the world.”
Tipton, (Rep.) of Nebraska, also
makes a valuable contribution:
Mr. Tipton cited Mr. Morton’s state
ment yesterday, that the objects ol
those who befriended that proposition
were to show that great corruption ex
istß under the present administration,
and said that that was exactly what he
wished the people to understand. As
to the other branch of Mr. Morton’s
charge, that this movement was an at
tack on the Republican party, it was
not true. Ho (Mr. Tipton) made no
attack on the Republican party. On
the contrary, he desired to redeem that
party from the curse that had come
upon it through the mistakes of the ad
ministration and the corruption of its
officials. He believed that there was
corruption deep, damning and festering,
all through this administration. The
motives of those who sought to revive
the committee on retrenchment, were
called in question. Could not a man
believe that, even in the Senate, there
might be found a better leader for the
Republican party than the intellectual
colossus now sitting in the White House
without being therefore accused of un
faithfulness to party ? Would it be said
that there was only one man in the
country under whom the Republicans
could train to be loyal ? Tbe Senator
from Indiana (Morton) had boasted that
it was a distinguishing mark of the Re
publican party that it was prompt to
punish wrong doers among its members.
He (Tipton) had once believed so, and
had acted upon that belief, but he had
been proscribed and punishc-d for it
ever since.
Trumbull closed thus :
Well, if there is anywhere in the
world a worse civil service than that of
the United States, I pray God to deliver
that people from it. [Laughter.] I feel
lees disposed than ever to submit my
Republicanism to the test of the Senator
from Indiana (Morton,) after his decla
ration that we have the best civil service
in the world. My Republicanism is
not partisan. I care nothing for it, ex
cept aa a party of great principles, and
if it ever comes to be used as a cover for
frauds, ami iniquities, the honest people
of the coo utry will overwhelm it as they
ought to do.
The correspondent of the New York
Tribune writos :
The scene was one long to bo remem
bered. Mr. Trumbull moved to instruct
the committee to proceed to the same
class of investigations formerly intrust
ed to the Retrenchment Committee, ami
took occasion to answer the charge
made by Mr. Morton yesterday, that
this whole debate was an attempt to
throw dirt on the Administration. He
could not see how terreting out abuses
was au attack on the Administration,or
upon the party. Morton’s reply was a
very angry one, reiterating the charges,
and impeaching Trumbull’sßepublicau
ism. When he ended, half a dozen
Senators rose at once, and Mr. I rum
bull was first recognized, but was called
to order by Mr. Sherman, on the ground
that he had once spoken on the question.
This proceeding was one so unusual,
that it caused the greatest surprise, and
gave Mr. Trumbull good grounds for in
dignation at the attempt to gag him.
Mr. Sherman opposed the present con
sideration of the resolution, and in an
excited manner charged the majority
with bad motives for its action in the
whole matter. By the time Mr. Sher
man was done, Mr. Trumbull was fully
aroused, and his speech was full of tell
ing blows. During his long service in
the Senate he had never had that rule
enforced upon him to stifle discussion
before, and he showed that the whole
course of the majority had been, first,
not to have any Committee at all, then
to have one without the necessary pow
er, or, in other words, they did not
mean to have any investigation at all.
The Cincinnati Commercial’s corres
pondent says that “it was the liveliest
debate” that has yet occurred and that
“Trumbull’s anger was superb.” He
says :
On the Grant side were Conkling,
Morton and Edmunds, with such aids
as Sherman, Nye, Chandler, Freling
huysen and Howe. On the reform side
were Trumbull, Schurz and Sumner,
with such aids as Featon, Tipton, Pat
terson, Logan and Alcorn. It was a
pretty evenly divided field. Wilson
led off in a half and half speech, rather
favoring the reform proposition. Nye,
on the side of Grant, followed in a
speech which only Nye could make—
loud and windy, but without an ounce
of substance. Then came Schurz, and
as soon as he was recognized by the
chair, Nye found it convenient to leave
his seat, to which he did not return un
til the vote was taken. He is a little
sensitive, is Nye, when he is alluded to.
As Schurz warmed up and got into the
New Y'ork Custom House lrauds and
the general order of thieving, Conkling
became very uneasy, and hitched about
in his chair as though he were on net
tleß. The speaker showd that men
who were acknowledged bribe takers—
men who confessed to receiving bribes
when every vesel comes in—were kept
in office, or if they were not, he called
upon Conkling to say so, which Conk
ling did not do. He also showed that
the general order business was a most
shameless piece of thieving; that it is
bleeding copiously the mercantile
community of New Y'ork, and that as
General Porter had tried to break it up,
it was evident there was some greater
power than Porter or Boutwel! contin
ual-; it His speech wse such that 'he
Grant party felt rel’ev; ■! when be had
finished
In the House oi Representatives to .
day the debate on the impeachment ol j
Beott was resumed. Mr. Bowen spoke
two hours. He said that the great pres
sure had been put upon him to induce :
him to withdraw his charges. He sta
ted that the State stock in the Grau-;
viile and Columbia road was sold at !
$2 75 to White. Other parties would ]
have given $5, and that Scott refused
to sign a transfer until his brother in
law was given $40,000. He exposed
the transaction of the Land Commis
sioners, showing that lands were bought
at five and six times. The agricultural
land scrip was reported sold at 72£
cents, but he knew men who paid 84
cents for it. Bowen was followed by
several members who denounced his
motives. Jones charged Bowen with
perjury, and read a dispatch sent la9t
summer by Bowen, begging Scott to
revoke the authority given Judge Bar
nett to proceed against the financial
agent, Kimpton. It is said that Scott
has secured enough votes to ensure
Bowen’s expulsion, and determined
efforts will be made in that direction.

Where Time the measure of hts hours
By changeful bud and blossom keeps,
And, like a young bride crowned with flowers,
Fair Shiraz in her garden sleeps;
Where, to her poet’s turban stone,
The Spring her gift of flowers Imparts,
Less sweet that these his thoughts have sown,
In the warm soli of Persian hearts:
There sat the stranger, where the shade
Os scattered date trees thickly lay,
While Id the hot dear heaven displayed
The long and still and weary day.
Strange trees and fruits above him hung,
Strange odors filled the sultry air,
Strange birds about the branches swung,
Strange insect voloes murmured there.
And strange bright blossomsihnng around,
Turned sunward from the shadowy bowers,
As If tbe Gheber’s soul had found
A fitting home in Iran’s flowers,
Whate’er he saw, whate’er he heard,
Awakened feelings new and sad,
No Christian garb, norUhrlstian word’
Nor Church with Sabbath bell chimes glad.
But Moslem graves, with turban stones,
And mosque spires gleaming, white, in view,
And gray beard Mollahs in low tones
Chanting their Koran service through.
The flowers which smiled on either hand,
Like tempting field, where such as tliey
Whicb once, o’er ail the Eastern land
As gilts on demon altars lay.
As If the burning eye of Baal
The servant of his Conqueror knew,
From skies which knew no cloudy veil,
The sun’s hot glances smote him through.
‘‘Ah me!'’ the lonely stranger said,
‘‘The hope which speeds my footsteps on,
And light from heaven around him shed,
O’er weary wave and waste, is gone!
“Where are the harvest fields all white,
F or truth to thrust her sickle Ini
Where flock the souls, like doves in flight,
From the dark biding place of sini
“A silent horror broods o’er all—
Tbe burden of a hatefull spell—
The very flowers around recall
The hoary magl’s rites of hell!
“And when am I, o’er such a land
The banner of the Cross to bear!
Dear Lord, uphold me with Thy hand,
Thy strength with human weeknes6 share.”
He ceased; for at his very feet
In mild rebuke a little flower smiled—
How thrilled his sinking heart to greet
The star flower of the Virgin’s child!
Sown by some wandering Frank, it drew
Its life from alien air and earth,
And told to Paynlm sun and due
1 he story of the Savior’s birth.
From scorching beams in kindled mood
The Persian plants its beauty screened,
And on its pagan sisterhood,
In love, the Christian flowers leaned.
With tears of joy the wanderer ielt
The darkness of his long despair
Before that hallowed symbol melt,
Which God’s dear love had nurtured there.
From Nature’s tact, that simple flower
The lines ofsln and sadness swept;
And Magian pile and Paynlm power
In peace like that of Eden slept.
Each Moslem tomb, and cypress old,
Looked holy through the upset air;
And, angle-like, the Muezzin told
From tower and mosque the hour of prayer.
With cheerful steps the morrow’s dawn
From Shiraz saw the stranger part;
The star-flower oi the Virgin-born
Still blooming in hlshopefull heart!
TEKSONAE TO UESSfcES,
Tlie True Hossage »r the Prenitleat.
Tho Titusville Courier has, at an im
mense outlay, secured aud laid before
its readers "me true message of Ulys
ses,” from which we make a few ex
tracts, as follows—(we may add that it
is addressed “To the High Old Senate
and House of Representatives”):
ABOUT MYSELF.
I have had a buiiy time during the
past summer. The most of it was spent
in the neat little “cottage by the sea,”
presented ine by tbe great-hearted Tom
Murphy. My share of the seizures of
contraband cigars aud liquors at the
New York Custom House kept me very
well supplied with those necessities.
Dnriug the summer I took a trip through
the oil region, thinking if any person
should have the foresight to present me
with a paying weli, I should retaove
Colonel Cogswell from the Titusville
Postoffice and appoint the donor to fill
the vacancy. No one took the hint,
however, and the Colonel remains in
peaceful possession of that valuable
office.
While he remains in it I am sure of
the earnest support of the Herald, the
first daily in the oil region. I break
fasted one morning at the Parshall
House, in Titusville. No one was al
lowed to eat with me unless he paid two
dollars to the committee. This was a
very good dodge, as it kept out a large
crowd. Negroes were allowed to pay
two dollars, but were not admitted to
the dining -room. In a Southern city
this would have warranted the interfer
ence of the Federal Government, but
occurring as it did in a city loyal to the
core, I thought it was a pretty good
joke on the presumptuous colored indi
vidual, who thought himself fit to eat
with the President of the United States.
I herewith transmit to you the docu
ments having reference to this subject,
consisting of copies of the Titusville
Courier and Herald, containing the let
ters of A. Lee, G. B. Williams, H. F.
Cooke, H. Hershberg, the editorial re
marks of the two papers, and the pro
ceedings of the colored indignation
meeting. I would recommend that they
lie placed in the Department of State for
future reference. At Petroleum Centre
I received a kiss from a patriotic lady.
I since learn that her husband has com
mitted suicide. There are other things
concerning myself of which I shall not
speak at this time.
THE CONDITION OF MY HORSES.
My horse fancier reports that my
horses are now all in good condition.
I have several very flue trotters. Last
summer one of my favorites was sud
denly taken sick, while I was at Long
Branch. I hurried home as fast as
steam could fetch me, and secured the
services of the most celebrated veterina
ry surgeon in the country. He saved
the horse, but his bill has not been paid
and I would recommend that Congress
appropriate a small sum for this pur
pose. The horse is a noble animal, and
should receive the fostering care of the
Government. I herewith transmit to
you Robert Bonner’s correspondence
in relation to Dexter, and would recom
rnend that you appropriate a sum suffi
cient to have two million copies printed
and circulated throughout the country,
and also that you make a further appro
priation to enable me to keep up my
stables in a proper manner.
THE LATE PRIZE FIGHT.
It is a source of regret that the late
prize fight was not more decisive in
Us character. lam of the opinion that
Coburn is a better man than Mace. I
would reccommend that if they con
clude to fight again they be allowed to
do so in the hall of the House of Repre
sentatives, and that an admission fee of
five dollars be charged. The manly
art of self defence should be fostered
and cherished, and I recommend that
an appropriation be made to establish
a national pugilistic school, at the head
of which I should appoint my esteemed
friend John Morrissey.
MY SON FRED.
When I was a boy, the impecunious
condition of my venerable father pre
cluded the possibility of my traveling
abroad “strange countries for to see.” 1
Now that I am well off, I am determin
ed that my son Frederick shall labor
under no such embarrassing disadvan
tages. So I have sent him to Europe
io charge of General Sherman. I desire
that he should become acquainted thor
.- ughiy wiih ihe workings oi the Gov
e.auiiuij id the old world a* you weli
know thai we are all earnestly trying to ]
remodel ours on the European plan,
and ot eourse under those circumstances
Frederick would be my successor. Con
sequently he should have that experi ]
ance and education which wouid enable
him to fill the position with that digni
ty which I know nothing of I recom
mend that Congress appropriate the
sum of fifty thousand dollars to be for
warded at'once to my son in order to
enable him to travel as becomes the son

held .Monday last, to fill vacancies in
the House, in the counties of Jackson,
Calhoun. Walton, Sumter, Marion,-nd
Columbia. Nothing official has been
received, bat it is belived that tlie Con
aervatives have carried all of them, and
secured a Conservative majority in the
House, and perhaps onjoint ballot. As
a United States Senator in place of
Osborne is to be elected, the result is a
suatter of no little importance.
Jonathan Wild Akerman Departs,
Jonathan Wild Akerman, late Attor
ney General of the .United States, de
parted office yesterday, the occasion of
this demise beiDg the utttr and shame
ful failure ot his pimping campaign in
the matter of Eu Kiux law.
When Mr. Akerman was first men
tioned as haviug been appointed Attor
ney-General ot the United States he was
spoken ot as to ail appearance he then
deserved. It was said he was a man of
good private character, of fair legal
ability, and of some prominence in the
meagre ranks of Georgia Republican
ism. What little was known of him
was taken to warrant the persuasion
that he would introduce into theadmin
istratiou a respectable degree of infor
mation respecting the real needs of the
South and temper by his Influence and
representations the rigor too often
manifested towards the unfortunate
section from which he came. So far
from justifying these rather fond per
suasions the new Attorney-General was
soon known as—leaving out Stanton—
the most supple tool of despotism that
ever disgraced a Cabinet chair. No
work was too dirty, no trick too foul,
no malignily too gieat. His record
reads like that of some old crown law
yer of the Stuarts, save that with equal
servility as a man he compared as a
lawyer only as a tsllow candle com
pares w iih the sun. For this latter fail
ing he has been removed. The revol
ting swiftness with which he dashed
his fangs into the unprotected bodies of
his own people would never have moved
a man so incapable of greatness of soul
as Mr. Grant; the utter lack of dignity
with which tbe Attorney General of the
United States played the spy and bum
bailiff would not have seemed improper
to the administration; but with all his
venom Mr. Akerman lacked ability to be
venetnous enough. His fangs were
planted in such places that they would
not hold, and hence the “resigna
tion.” Ex-Senator Williams, of Or
egon, is the new attendant of
the chase. As the author of the
original reconstruction act he is known
to be sufficiently unscrupulous for Mr.
Grant’s purpose, and in point of me
chanical ability—for we cannot call
such a degradation of learning by the
name professional—is a better instru
ment. Tne change is for Mr. Grant’s
advantage, but threatens ill for the
peace and good order of the United
States. Scroggs is set aside, but only
that Jeffreys may come in his place.—

Death of Gen. Leonidas Polk.—
An ex-Confederate, writting for the
Westminister Review , gives the follow
ing account of the death of the bißhop
general:
"The death of the distinguished man
was a melancholy one. It occurred
while our army lay in front of Kenno
saw. Johnson, with agroupofoffioers,
among Polk, was making a
reconnoisancc of the enemy’s Hues from
the summit of Pine Mountain, a lofty,
solitary mound, which jutted out from
the range, and formed the apex of an
acute angle, on which our line was ar
ranged. The situation was a very
hazardous one, being commanded, or
rather reached by guns, from any por
tion of the enemy's lines. The unusual
assemblage in such a conspicuous place
soon attracted the vigilant enemy. A
battery in front immediately fired one
shot, which we afterwards found out
was but tbe prelude to one of the most
fearful shellings I ever witnessed. The
group were standing between young
Beauregard’s battery and the fifth com
pany ot Washington artillery, Johnston
being on the works looking through a
field glass. That firßt shot could not
have missed him two feet, but the only
attention paid to it was to turn bis
glasses to ihe battery that fired it.
Polk had in the meantime separated
from the group, and was walking
thoughtfully away with his left side to
the enemy—his head down and his
hands clasped behind him. The sec
ond shell fired at the crowd struck him
in the arm, and passed through the
body, tearing out his heart, and then
crushing his right arm above the elbow.
He dropped on one knee, wavered, then
fell on one side—dead. I had scarcely
turned my back when I hoard the mur
mur of horror run through the line,
“Gen. Polk is killed.” Johnston said
not a word, but ian to hjm and lifted
him in his arms. Hardee uttered a cry
and also rushed forward. He was past
all human help. The members of his
staff tenderly lifted and bore him from
the field.
Josh Billings on Marriage. —Sum
many for love without a cent in their
pocket nor a drop of pedigree. This
looks desperate, but it iz me strength
of the game. Sum marry because they
think wimmin will be scarce next year,
and live tew wonder how the crop bold
out. Sum marry to get rid of them
selves, and discover that the game was
one that two could play at and neither
win. Bum marry the second time to
get even, and find it a gambling game
—the more they put down the less they
take up. Sum marry to be happy, and
not finding it, wonder where all the
happiness goes tow when it dies. Sum
marry they cau’t tell why, and live they
can’t tell how. Almost everybody gits
married, and it iz a good joke. Sum
marry in haste, and then set down and
think it carefully over. Sum think it
carefully over fust, and then set
down and marry. Both ways are right
if they hit the mark. Sum marry co
quettes. This is like buying a poor
farm, heavily mortgaged and working
the balance of yure days to clear oph
the mortgages. But, after all, married
life iz full as certain as the dry goods
business. Kno man kan swear exactly
wharhe will fetch up when he touches
calico. Kno man ban tell jist what
calico has made up its mind to do next.
Calico don’t know herself. Dry goods
ov all kinds iz the child of circumstan
sis. The man who stands on the bank
shivering, and duesent, iz more apt to
ketch cold than him who pitches his
head fust into the river. If ennybody
asks whi you got married (if it needs
be) tell him you don’t recollect.

Thb Secret of Caftivation. —Fea-
tures of Grecian mould, a well turned
neck anti beautifully rounded arms, are
no doubt very nice things to have, and
ladies who possess these charities have
reasons to be thankful to Mother Na
ture; yet, after all, the most captivating
of all womanly charms is a pure, fresh
and brilliant complexion. This super
lative fascination any lady may secure
by usiug llaqan’s Magnolia Balm, the
standard beautifying preparation of the
presentage. It differs from all ordina
ry cosmetics in three most essential
particulars, inasmuch as it contains no
Injurious ingredients, does not contract
or shrivel the skin as alt tho astringent
“blooms,” "lotions” and “powders”
evenually do, but produces a lasting
loveliness by improving the health of
the skin. Under its operation the tex
ture of the epidermis becomes finer, and
the surface soft ss velvet, and smooth
as porcelain. Features cannot be
changed, but complexion can, and it is
quite certain that a lady with no other
charm than a fresh and rosy complex
ion, will attract more admiration in
company than her neighbor with a cl&B
sic face but s»l[ow skin.

etable tonic, which is unpolluted by any
distilled or fermented liquor.

Tin: PKOSrBCT.—Tho Agricultural Bureau
in the report for November estimates tho crop
at 3,400,000 bales. Tho bureau estimates have
not proved to bo so correct as to have implicit
confidence placed in them. The U. S. port re
ceipts. thus far,are 257,627 bales behind last sea
son to the same date, and 35,477 ahead oi the
previous yoar. Tho iutorior towns. Augusta,
Macon. Columbus, Eufanla, Montgomery and
Selma show 135.000 bales less net receipts than
last vear, and their stocks as will be seeu by our
tables were less September Ist than last year
and are behind at this date. Tills element
cannot bo enforced too strongly in tho calcula
tion of probabilities. They have received al
ready considerably over half oi what they can
expect. Though Manchester has a much larger
stock than last year, and cotton is higher, con
sumption is reported much greater in Britain,
and tho continent is taking considerably more
than last season. After Christmas, we may ex
pect to see receipts both at the Interior towns
and the ports show still larger declines from the
preceding year, and notwithstanding tiie im
mense floating power of the India staple, it ia
the confident opinion of many of the best in
formed merchants that prices must advance.
The course of receipts will soon settle the mat
ter one way or the other.
The era of large plantations for the present
at least appears to have departed. Few, since
tho war, have mademoney on them. Several of
the best of this section have boon offered fin
rent and find few bidders and these at smaller
figures than at this period in 1870. Farmers in
the South aro beginning to realize the tact that
money cannot bo made on a cotton plantation
with a granary* located at Louisville. Cincin
nati or St. Louis; that it can be productive only
bv causing it to be self-sustaining as respects,
grain. When this truth is universally main
tained in theory and practice we may expect a
season of prosperity to ensue, and futures care
for themselves. Laborers are plentiful, but few
can run the same force as in 1870. and negroes
by themselves, have yet to demonstrate they are
a largely productive class. These elements
must be considered in regarding the future of
prices, and all look to higher ones.
The stringency of the money market, owing
much to the carrying of a good deal ol cotton,
has created a dullness in sales this week. This
cotton will hardly be thrown upon a declining
business. A gooadeal has been shipped to-day.
It being the week before Ohrismas, tho re
