The Firginiuu Affair Adjusted—The
War Flurry Over,
It must prove a source of real gratifi
cation to tlie readers of these columns to
know that the threatening cloud of war,
which has his n hunting on our borders
for some time, on account of the atrosi
ticK committed upon the crew of the Vir
ginius, an 1 the supposed indignity to
the honor < f the United States Govern
ment, has at. last disappeared. Terms
of settlement have lsten reached by the
two governments, which, if not altogeth
er what, would have been pleasing to the
belligerent eit z ns of the two countries,
are nevertheless esteemed honorable to
both. Though there is some disagree
ment in the phraseology of the dispatch
es announcing the terms of settlement.,
it is probably only in the phraseology.
There is a slight suggestion of the possi
bility of future trouble, arising from the
inability of Spain to enforce the promis
ed concessions j in consequence of which
the preparations at, our navy yards have
not been entirely suspended.
'i'lie terms of agreement embrace, Ist,
The release of the remaining officers and
crew of the. Virginia; 2nd, The return
of the f t arnsh p itself ; 3rd, The firing
of a salute to the old Hag and making
provision, by the Spanish Government,
for the families of those who were exe
cuted. This is the version of the basis
0 f settlement received at ourown Capitol
and the discrepancy between this and t.ho
version from Madrid is in connection
with the third article, that is, saluting
the old ilttg, and making provision for
the support of the families of those who
have been slain. The dispatches from
Madrid seem to leave their agreement, to
tLi* last article contingent upon future
developments. They propose to show
that the Yirginius had no right to boar
American colors, and that therefore the
seizure was b gal; and as a consequence
that the execution of the captives was
right; and that therefore that govern
ment is not bound to make provisions
fertile support of their families. If
Spain should succeed ill ibis it will throw
upon the United States Government the
of punishing in some wav the
remaining officers and crew of the Vir
g’mius.
. « Whatever may be the result of these
investigations, it can but be, as we said,
tt source of gratification to us that the
war cloud has "disappeared. We need no
more territory. We have vast quantities
of unoccupied and undeveloped territory
already within our limits. The acquisi
tion of Cul i w ould be a source of riches
in some respects and of weakness in oth
ers. Above all tilings, we want peace.
to recuperate our powers, shattered, not
only by the terrible interneeivo struggle
from which we have hut, recently emerg
ed, but still more so by the misrule in
our State governments, and the wild
speculations of various kinds, which have
succeeded that struggle, and which have
brought upon us one of the most painful
and opin'! sslvo financial disasters to
which we have ever been subjected. Let
us have vest from war, as long ns consis
tent with honor, and then wo may bo able
to get. back to those good old times when
plenty smiled in all parts of the land,
and nl'g’ou and contentment were the
heritage of every home.

Hon. A. 11. Stephens in Washington \
The arrival at Washington of this vet- i
eran statesman as Representative of the j
Eighth Distrist of Georgia, in the Forty- i
Fourth Congress created quite a senna- ;
lion, and has elicited much remark from
the press and newspaper correspondents.
After Congress had assembled, in the
drawing for mints exceptions were made
for Mr. Stephens and Mr. Dawes. Mr.
Stephens’ scat is directly in front of the
Speaker, on the Democratic side of the
aisle. The courtesy was extended to Mr
Stephens by motion of Mr. Platt,, of Vir
ginia.
Writing from Washington, a corres
pondent of the New York World, has this
to say concerning the distinguished
Georgian :
Mr. Stephens bore the fatigue of the
journey much better then he had antici
pated, and this morning, hiving bad a
good night’s rest, was quite bright, and
free from pain. Mr. Stephens is afflicted
with rheumatism of the severest tyj>e,
which has thrown one hip out of place; and
though he can hobble about a room with
the aid of a cane, he has to use crutches
on the street. Physically he is very
feeble, but his intellect is as clear as ever.
Ho eats animal food very seldom, and
then sparingly, anil cannot partake of
milk, butter or eggs without suffering
afterwards. He is fearfully Tmaciated,
and so colorless that his slender fingers
seem almost transparent. He takes an
active interest in his approaching con
gressional duties, but refers to his hermit
likc life as having left him in ignorance
of many of the local changes which have
taken place since his former residence in
Washington. Witli all matters of public
import Mr. Stephens is, of course, an
counint,ns he has been a constant render
of the daily journals. In looking over a
list, of the members of the forty-third
Congress be has marked the names of
twenty as having been former associate's
and friends. He is anxious to know to
what committ' ,-a he willhe assigned, and
referred to having served on the Ways
and Means and Election Committees.
The Appropriation Committee having
been referred to as not including in the
last Congress even a solitary Southern
member, Mr. Stephens remarked that
that was anew committee to him. Ho
thought he should like to servo on the
Committee on Foreign Affairs at this time,
and no doubt Speaker Blaine, of whose
re-election there can be litte doubt, will
assign this veteran statesman to some
positon commensurate with his acknowl
edged ability. Mr. Stephens has been
literally besieged with visitors, and fre
quently expressed his surprise and grati
fication at the number of old friends and
acquaintances who had already sought,
him out.
Fanners are Thinking
Never before in this country have the
farmers been so intently engaged in
thinking as now. Heretofore they have
allowed others to think for them, and act
for them, and make laws for them. They
are now thinking for themselves. They
find that thinking by proxy is not quite
the tbing. They know that farming by
proxy don't pay. They are in a brown
study. ’They find themselves in debt.
They labor as hard as ever, hut get less
pay. They have always paid taxes, but
never so heavily as now. They see a
heavy foreign demand for their products,
but on account of extortionate transpor
tation rates, will reap but littlo advant
age therefrom. 'They find they have no
control over the prices of their labors or
their products. They see they are at the
mercy of rings, combinations and cliques.
Those wh )iu they have chosen to repre
sent them in the national affairs have be
trayed them, and become the representa
tives of the capitalists of the county.
While most of the other classes have
hem doing well, they have been falling
behind. Is it any wonder that farmers j
are thinking something is wrong? Is it
any wonder they are associating together j
anil discussing the causes of their griev- I
ances ? Is it any wonder that they are :
turning out by the thousand, and attend- '
ing fanners' meetings wherever they'are j
announced? They mean business. They
intend to take a hand themselves in their
own affairs. They are trying to find out
what is wrong, and when they do ascer
tain what it is,nothing can prevent them
from n moving it. Farmers are naturally
conservative. They move slow but with
a terrible earnestness. When the farm
wagons got started, there is trouble ahead.
Wo are gl ad the farmers are thinking.
Brains are the controlling element every
where. The brains of the farmer are now
at work awfully considering the situation.
They are getting ready to take their part
in the struggles of the future— literal

.( remarkable Surgical Case.
A youth, named John Smith.about six
teen years of age, lost bis sense of hear
ing about two years ago, and finally lost
liismisi n, and" was placed in the Institu
tion for Idiotic and Feeble Minded 1 ettth
at South Boston. A few weeks sineo it
was learned that when about seven years
of ago he had put some pebble stones in
his ears whilst at play, and that these had
never been withdrawn, and acting upon
this clew a woman doctor began experi
ments. A syringe was at first upi lied,
and then a probe. At last the probe pro
duced a grating sound, and further efforts
revealed, as had Weil sntieipted, a mini
bor of small pebble* lying deep in the
ear, beneath the skin. One of them,
about the size of a pin’s head, was first
got cut, then another, and another, until l
by successive repetitons of the experi
ment no less then twenty-nine small poo
blce were removed from the sufferer’s
head. All this was done without start
ing a drop of blood, or causing any dis
tress to the patient. It is believed now
that he will regain his reason. —Boston

— A Well Posted “Granger.” —The
Athens Georgian tells the following sto
ry : A Granger, who is one of our best
farmers, a highly intelligent and respect
able citizen, holding office in the Grange,
saw an article in an agricultural paper
saying, to “prevent goats from jumping,
out. off their lower eye-lashes, and they
will never jump.” The ge/itiemau, who
owned a large heard of troublesome jump
ing goats, called ill his neighbors to wit
ness the modes uperaiidihy which be cured
his goats of this bad habit. They assem
bled at his house, anxious to see what
they believed to be an impossibility.
The goats were called up, the shears j
sharpened, and one caught when, to the
surprise of all, the goat had no under i
eye-lashes. Several were caught and ex-j
ainined, but “nary eye-lash” could In; j
found. Not one of the assembled party i
knew that a goat had no laslies on tin
lower lid, or if they did, they determined
to say nothing, but enjoy the joke on
their friend and neighbor.
—We find the following in the Savan
nah Advertisar-llcpuhlican of Sunday:
A Young Man Shot and Probably
Killed. —lt is strange, though not by
atiy means unusual, for serious and even
fatal difficulties to grow out of the most j
trifling circumstances. We have just |
heard of a case in point. A young man !
named George W. Hines, who claimed to
be a relative of Mv. Kirksey, of the firm
of Kirksey A Scott of this city’ visited
station No. 11, on the Macon and Bruns
wick road, a short time ago for the pur
pose of solid,ing t,he position of telegraph
operator (such being his occupation) at
that point. A young lady had already
procured the positon anil consequently \
Mr. Hines failed. While there he stop
ped with an aunt, who keeps ft hoarding
house, and, unfortunately, got on aspree.
When under the influence of liquor, j
young Hines met a roan named Mayer, j
who is engaged in merchandising at the I
same place, and whether for the sake of j
gratifying a foolish inclination for fan
or for the purpose of getting up a diffi
culty with Mayer, wo do not know, blit
he thoughtlessly drew out. his pistol and
pointed it at Mayer. Ho immediately
lushed upon Hines, and wrested the
weapon from him, and afterwards w< nt
lo his store near by. In a few minutes
Hines followed him into the store, and,
armed with a big stick, made another at
tack upon Mayer, who drew the very
pistol he had taken from Hines, and com
menced firing at him. He fired with
this pistol two balls, and thou laid it one
side, taking up Lub own pistol, which he
fired once at Hines, striking him in lonio
portion of his body, where we could not
learn.
The unfortunate young man was fakcii
to his aunt’s where he has been lingering
for a few days, and yesterday we learned
from a gentleman from that section, that
w hen he passed that station the day be
fore, Mr. Hines was said to he dying.
VVe are not acquainted with Mr. Geo.
W. Hines, but learn he is a brother of
Mr. Hines, passenger conductor on the
Jacksonville, Pensacola and Mobile rail
road, well known to the travelling public,
and a very nice gentleman. Mr. George
W. Hines fbe unfortunato young man,
was, wo learn, unmarried.
Covington Enterprise. : A strange and
unaccountable occurrence has just come
to our knowledge. Twonegroes working
in the employ of one of our follow towns
men, were sent out to the forest to cut
and cord wood. They went to the Cow
sor woods,about three miles from Coving
ton, and while there selected a large red
oak which they determined to cut down.
Leaning their axes against the tree they
looked at\ und to see. which way to fall it.
At the north of this tree, about four feet,
is the solitary grave of the late Thornes
(dowser, Esq., who died and was buried
some forty years ago. While these dar
kies were considering about the best way
to tluow the tree, a soft and sweet voice
was heard sing’ug nearby ; in a few sec
onds the axes began to dance about and
around the trunk of the tree, and other
voices joined in the singing, and the
sound of many harmonious musical in
struments was heard playing the most
plaintive and touching tunes which ever
fell upon the human t ar. These darkies
fil'd from the haunted spot in fear nnd
dismay and refused to return to get their
axes. No one can convince them that
this place is free from ghosts and spirits.
Whether this thing actually occurred we
are not prepared to say, for many indi
viduals in this section have heard these
same noises at this sp>ot, and a family of
darkies living in the vicinity of the place
say that on dark and dreary nights when
the winds are howling and the heavens
are watering the earth, that the voice of
Oapt. Cowser can be heard calling his
hounds and driving his cattle through
: the old field adjoining the woods where
- Ids residence once stood. Oapt. Cowser
! has also been seen by some of t hese par-
I ties in the broad open day light with his
shroud on and his gun thrown across his
shoulder. The Captain in his life-time
|is said to have been troubled with his
i negroes, and now. no doubt, with the
memory of those old times still in his
soul, he visits the earth again to bring
fear and trembling to all the da;kies why
intrude on the land he once called his
i vru.
