V -v~. T'~ ■ r The Newsak Herald. NEWNAN, GEORGIA. TUESDAY. JANUARY 5. 1886 J. C. Flood presented $6,000 of Christmas gifts to various charities in San Francisco. Owing to the protracted illness ot Mrs. McDaniel, there was no recep tion at the gubernatorial mansion on New YeaFA day. The Democracy all over New York State gave Gov. Hill a glori ous old-iashioned inauguration at Albany on New Year’s day. The editor of the new edition of Webster’s dictionary, President Porter, of Yale, has decide^ to ad mit “bulldozing,” “boycott” and “dude” into its precincts, butt is hes itating r’p^t “mugwump.” Senator Sherman is a relormer When elected President ol the Sen ate he reformed the new offices in his patronage by turning out the appointees of the dead Vice-Presi dent and pu'ting his own men in their places. The census of Charleston, com pleted to-day, shows a total popula tion of 00,146, against 46,084 in 1880— an increase of over twenty percent. The white popalation is 27,605 and the colored 32,540. The colored consists mainly of children. The Secretary of the Treasury ha.'- instructed the collector of cus toms at Georgetown, D. C , to ad mit free of duty certain plaster models imported by the Ladies’ Lee Monument Association, as design* from which selection is to be made (or a monument to Gen. Robert E. Lee. It is stated that Senator Sherman had not been in office as the suc cessor of Vice President Hendricks twenty-four hours before a clean Democratic sweep was made and Republicans substituted. Oneofhis first acts was to discharge little Harry Morgan, who was made a doorkeeper by Mr. Hen dricks. Tins is a fair illustration of how hungry the Republicans are for the spoils. In his wild race for the Presiden cy it was not at all surprising that Mr. B. F. Butler ran considerably behind, hut that he should run be hind in his accounts as Treasurer of the Soldiers’ Home to the amount, as alleged, of more than .$220,000, must grieve as well as surprise the old soldiers who in their hilarious hours have been wont to fondly call Mr. Butler “General.” The detective business is appa rently in very bad condition in Aus tin. Texas. Seven murders in eight months is a large allowance for a city of that size, but when the fact is added that no (due has been found to the perpetrators of any of them the situation becomes truly remarkable. Naturally enough a state of nervousness prevails, and a first-class hanging would be wel comed by a large and appreciative audience. John T. Morton, who successfully passed a competitive examination before a Civil-Service Commission out West and has been appointed to a thousand-dollar clerkship in the Post-Office Department at Washington, turns out to have been the equally successful colored teacher of a colored school Arkansas. The Court of fommlssioners of Alabama Claims sent to the De partment at Washington, Dec., 30, a certified list of judgments and decisions in cases of the second class rendered since the organiza tion of the court in 1882, together with a certified list of judgments and decisions in cases of the first class not heretofore' reported. There are nine cases of tne first class, in which judgments ranging from $200 to $3,000 are rendered in favor of the claimants, and 31 cases in which judgment is for th ; Unit ed States. Those of the second class till several large books, and award to claimants amounts rang ing from *100 to $80,000 or $00,000. They will be certified by the Secre tary of State to the Secretary of the Treasury for payment, according to law. Ah Enterprising, Reliable House. II. S.

Yves Guyot, member of the French Chamber of Depulios, says, in the last number of the Nine teenth Century, that the French electors in the late election did not vote on the issue of the Monarchy or a continued Republic, but on the questions, ‘-peace or war, religious despotism or religious freedom, ex travagance or economy.” The close vote recently cast in the Chamber on the Tonquin njutior evinces little approval of anything like an aggrandizing policy, while considerable has been said of the necessity of checking public expen ditures, which have been altogether too liberal for some time past for thereto of the exchequer. The cry is for a reduction in taxation and an opportunity to mend mat ters at home generally. The re-elec tion of President Grevy is in the line of a desire for quietude. tii um-mTuniiu. The bigamy bill reported from the Senate judiciary committee provides that in any prosecution for bigamy, polygamy, or unlawful cohabitation, the lawful husband or wife of the accused party shall be a competent witness, and may be compelled to testify; that an at tachment for a witness may be is sued without a previous subpoena when there is reasonable ground to believe that the witness will refuse to obey a subpoena; that every marriage ceremony in the territo ries shall be certified in writing, the certificate to be signed by each of the parties and by the officer or prie a t performing the ceremony, such certificate to be prima facie evidence of the facts, when produc ed in court, and failure to furnish certificate is made punishable by fine and imprisonment. All rec ords of marriages kept by officiat ing functionaries shall be subject to inspection by United States offi cials, and refusal to permit this is punishable by fine and imprison ment. The bill also annuls female suffrage and several other statutes in the interest of p dygamy. The measure is a sweeping one, and its enforcement will completely wipe out polygamy from any territory of the United States. It h*»s been drawn with the experiences of the last yeftf in’view, an 1 really goes to the root of the whole matter. The people of Utah ought by this time to have learned that there is no sympathy in this country with polygamy, that it is a doomed in stitution on American soil. No po litical party dare truckle to the evil, and none will do so. It is with the polygamous Mormons sim ply a question whether they will abandon the country, or their infa mous practices. They are at liberty to do either, but one or the other they must do. Bucklen’s Arnica Salve. Title Hkst Salve in the world for i 'ills, Bruises, Sores, Ulcers, Salt Kheutn Fever Sores.

Senator Stanford, of California, knows how to spend money, as well as how to make it. His gift of twenty million dollars to found a great university in that State, to be located in Menlo Park, proves this very conclusively. The sum named is by far the most munificent en dowment ever given by one man to found an institution of learning, and it is probably more than was ever given by a combination of men for one educational object. The plans for the proposed univer sity are not yet matured, but it is known that the building will in- ie an agricultural depart.i,ent, Meal institute, museum, art d structures devoted to *he princi files of gam^H-aitv. ’■<w, painting, vii site In reply to a communication from Senator George, of Mississippi, gelation to the boxing of trees lurpentine purposes by hoine- d claimants, Judge Stockslager, stant commissioner of the oral Land Office, says; “The ocess being undoubtedly one of damage to tne land, there is no warrant of law under which permis sion can be granted to use for the turposes indicated timber upon ntrace to which title has not been equired by claimant.

A three hours fight ensued, resulting in the British troops capturing Gitiiss, a village near Kosheh. The rebels were completely routed. The cavalry is pursuing the enemy. Two guns and twenty banners were captured. The English lost one of ficer killed and twenty-one men wounded. The Egyptian allies of the British lost six killed and thir teen wounded. - Abdeikaler Pasha, minister of war, an<l formerly governor of the S- u- dan, in a recent conversation on the Egyptian question, said if the English retire on Wady Haifa, they must retire on Assouer; ami if on Assouer then on Cairo. Every pace in advance gives the English a hun dred friends. Every pace in retir ing gives them 2.000 enemies, half in front and halt in rear. The English may gain victory, but if they are followed by retreat, the English government has useless ' ted blood.

MEXICAN FEMALE REMEDY- The Most Effective Astringent And fain YUeviator In The W orld.—Is espe- ciallv designed for that class of discos only known to ^andappreuated The C/ii</at)o News speaks sensi bly of this disturbing element: The only pressing need of an army in this country is for the pro tection of our frontier against raids of hostile Indians. But for this we require only men enough to forri. the nucleus of an army which may be filled up in time of necessity, to meet any exigency that may arise. But with more than 250,000 Indians to take care of on a frontier prac tically 3,000, miles long, we have a mere handful 1 men that do little more than furnish material for Indian bullets to transform irtto corpses. There is no better or bra ver Indian fighter than Gen. Crook, but what can he d » with a few heavily mounted cavalry men in the mountain fastnesses of Ari zona fighting well-mounted Apach es armed with the best of rifles and paying no sort of heed to any of the rules of civilized warfare! The ambuscade of Lieut. Fountain’s little command the other day gives the answer. Here a party of thirty-five men were fired upon in the mountains and a large number were killed. When pursuit was ordered it was found that the Indians had mounted their swift- ponies and we,re beyond capture. Ten thousand men well equiped for Indian fighting would keep the southwest as quiet as it is here, but the small force employed only of fers inducements for these Indian depredations.

The only solid ar gument in favor of Grevy’s elec tion was his unflinching and un compromising loyalty to the repub lic. France has scores of men, more competent and able men, out of which to select a President, but there is not one whose loyalty was so pronounced and above suspicion as that of President Gre\’y. He is disliked by many of the party lead ers; he is not especially popular with the people, but he is loyal and hon est, and while the shadows of re cent despotism are so deep in France the loyal element in French politics and society were unwilling to trust the destiuies of the republic in anv hands than those unstained with a mark of disloyalty to the es tablished government. Grevy was such a man and personal dislike .was swallowed in the full faith the Republicans had in his unquestion able fidelity to Republican France.

Some one assisted them over to Grantville where they took th« train, it is said for Dalton, where he intends leaving her and then go and get- his other wife.
