Thursday Morning,: : : Feb. 27,1879 The Milledgeville Union and Re corder speaks of Mrs. Felton as “the wife of ‘my husband.’ ” It seems probable that the last days of the Forty-fifth Congress will be its beet dayB. It is doing some good work just at the close. The Felton ring will have a fine time “peroosing” the recent literary ef fusions of Dr. and Mrs. Felton. Their speech and letter will be found very amusing.’ ^ TnE old man’s mind often reverts and dwells upon the scents of his youth. Hence oven at this late day we occasion ally see a reference in some of our ex changes to tbe Hill-Murphy fee. The Dalton Headlight is naming a candidate for tbe Democracy in the Congressional race next year. Never mind, the Democracy will attend to that. “Our George” can gets biggi r vote than over—and a smaller one would elect him next time. The inroad that death has recently made upon the catalogue of Congress men is sadly told by tbe number oi memorial speeches published in tht Congressional Record. The daily edi tions of the Record look more like vol umes of eulogies than legislative pro cecdings. The interesting article from the Boston Transcript descriptive of tw< meetings of Generals Gordon and Bar low, recalls the fact that Ger>. Barlow is a Republican, and was sent by Grant in the fall of 1876 to Florida to “see a fair count” of the Presidential vote According to brave Gen. Barlow's opin ion a fair count gave the vote of Fiori da to Tilden and elected hint. for carrying out their purpose of deceiv ing. The demagogue who bosnoaspira tion save that of gaining his own person al ends—who has no principles or policy save that of destroying his opponents, will, in nine cases out of ton, appear be fore the people as the sanctimonious em bodiment of political rectitude, make charges of fraud, deception and political heresy against opponents who in all the walks oi life are bis superiors ; and with well rounded and thoroughly digested sentences full of platitudes that none can deny in the essence, set himself up a. perfection’s paragon, while at the same time he knows that ho is himself but “playing a part." One of the favorite means that the Radical resorts to to break the faith oi honest Democrats in their party, is to talk and rant of conventions and mass meetings and caucuses of the party as ings and cliques, and denounce the re sult of their deliberations as gag laws. If we have a political party at all that party must meet for consultation and for agreement as to the common purpo-c ol reaching the ends aimed at. And those who attend such meetings are competeut act, and mark out the course to be pursued. If this is not done there is neither unanimity of action nor success ful result; and he who absents bimselt from such meetings and denounces their actions is either a marplot or an enemy The Radical party —the enemy of the Democratic party and of democratic in stitutions—is thoroughly and completely organized and equipped fur its warfare against Democracy, and the only hope, the only chance, for the Democrats to wrest the government from them and de throne fraud, is for them to banish these croakers and defamers of the party out side its pale, aDd theu make “a long pull strong pull and a pull all together.” These reflections have been caused by reading the Washington correspondence tno New York Herald, under date of 22nd inst. The correspondent speaking of the failure of the bill to repeal the resumption act, says “the word has been Francis C. Barlow and John B. Gordon. Bv voting to censure Rev. Dr. Hoy for preaching the truth from his pulpit in Nashville, the Tennessee House ot Representatives “acknowledged th corn.” Dr. Hoyt’s idea that want ot rectitude on tho part of those in high station would effect the whole people is borne out both by Scripture and reason When T-nnessee’s Representatives took off-oise at the doctrine they took “ the other side.” Conkling and Burnside have been turning the Senate into a menngeri again. The lie, in effect, passed botweeu them time and again, last Tuesday Burnside was about to “go for” th' New York peacock, butSenator Anthony held his culleague, and no blood was spilt. The difficulty grew cut of Conk ling’s opposition to the confirmation ol ono of Hayes’ appointees to a place in New York. We hope Senator Antho ny will think better next time, and let them fight it out—“they are no kin” to us. The Atlanta Phonograph is wise as well as funny. Hear it: “The Phonograph is as good Demo cratic- paper as there is in the land, but it does not belong to any clique, faction or ring-bound organization. That’s the kind of a hairpin we are. A man is no longer a freeman when he cannot vote as be pleases.” The Phonograph shows its wisdom making public announcement of the fact that it is Democratic. If it wishes to keop up that character it would be prudunt for it to continuo the adver tisement. _ The House on Tuesday attached amendments to the legislative appro priaiiou bill repealing the Federal elec tion laws and the jurors test oath law and fixed the pay of jurors in Federal courts at two dullars a day. The Rad icals tried to prevent the appearance of a quorum, but three of them voted which, with tho Democrats, made quorum. The bill goes to the Senate, and it is likely theso amendments will not get through that body. It is to be hoped that tho Democrats of tho House will not falter, even if tho bill fails, An extra session will not hurt. passed round by the leaders, aud the ox oellent discipline of tbe (Republican) party brings its members up to the mark. The Democrats, with little discipliue and poor leadership, have not made up their minds wbat to do.” NECESSITY ok organization. Tho fashion of decryiug party orgaui zatian has prevailed so largely in theso latter daytt that its effect is felt by tho Democratic party and has become source of exultation to its enemies, the Radicals. Tdat grievous errors may bo committed by any party, aud wrongs bo perpetrated by its individual members truthful man will deny j for it is human to err, and no man or party can rightful ly lay claim to perfection. The catchwords, rings, cliques and others of like significance can be used by demagogues and self-seekers with great effect before people that arc patriot ic and by habit inclined to act right. Hence their great power when used by crafty politicians, who make the common honesty of the people servo as a vehicle Couri, r-Jourual: While the Republi cans iu Congress are extoling the Feder al election law, and swearing by all the gods “that tbe humblest citizen of this Republic shall be protected,” Judges Settle, Bond and Billings, in Florida, Maryland and Louisiana, have been teking Federa' juries, and sending scores of Democrats, to tbe penitentiary on the testimony of hired white and black perjurers. The suggestive part of this zeal to “protect tbe humblest citi zen” (by sending him to j til) is that Fed eral election law is used, as it was origi ually designed to bo used, exclusively agaiust Southern Democrats. The law was never intended to protect voters or tho ballot-b >x. It was meant simply to enable the Republican party to steal bal lots enough to give them an election and arrest enough Democrats to clenr the way for Republican fraud. Boston Transcript: You may not be iwaro that it was Gen. Gordon’s com mand which struck the flank of the Eleventh Corps on the afternoon of tbe first day at Gettysburg, aDd, after a -hurt but desperate conflict, broke its line and swept it from the field. In that fight Gen. Barlow, of New York commander of the first division, foil dangerously, and it was thought, mortally wounded. He was shot di rectly through the body. Two of his men attempted to bear him through that shower of lead from the field, but ono was instantly killed, and Gen. Bar- low magnanimously said to the other : “You can do me no good; save your self if you can.” Gordon’s Brigade of Georgians, in its wild charge, swept over him, and he was found by Gen. Gordon himself, lying with up-turned face in the hot July bud, nearly paralyzed and appar ently dying. Gen. Gurdon dismount ed from his hone, gave him a drink of WAter from hiB canteen, and inquired of Gen. Barlow his name and wishes. Gen. Barlow said; “I shall probably live but a short time. Please take from my breast pock et the packet of my wife’s letters and read one of them to me.” which was dune. He then asked that the others be torn up, os he did not wish them to fall into other hands. This Gen. Gor don did, ana then asked : “Can I do anything else for you General ?” “Yes,” replied Gen. Barlow, earnest ly; “my wife iB behind our army. Can you send a message through the lineB ?' “Ceitaiuly I will,” said Gen. Gordon and he did. Then directing Gen. Barlow to be borne to the shade of a tree at the rear, lie rode on wi.h his coramatid. The wife receivtd-thc message and came harmlessly through both lines of battle and found her husband, who eventual ly recovered. Since Gen. Gordon’s election to the United States Senate, both he and Gen. Barlow were invited to a dinner party in Washington, and occupied opposite seats at the table. After introductions, Gen. Gordon said: “Gen. Barlow, are you related to the fficer of your name who wns killed at Gettysburg?” I atn the man,” said Barlow. “Are you related to the Gordon who is sup posed to have killed me?" “I am tno man,” said Gen. Gordon The hearty greeting which followed tbe touching story, as related to tho in terested guests by Gen. Barlow, and the thrilling effect upon the company, can better bo imagined than described. Baltimore Gazette:. The Democratic rnajorityffn the next House of Repre sentatives will not be very large, and the Republicans now see their way pretty clearly toward re ucing it and giving tho majority to the other 'side. All that is necessary is to indict a cer tain number of Democratic members- elect in the Southern States on charges of election frauds, try them in the Fed eral Courts and send them to the peni tentiary. It is perfectly simple. The grand jury may be gathered fur this special purpose from the remains of the old carpet-bag party, and the petit ju ries recruited from tho same class. It makes little difference, even in this city, what the law is and what aie tbe facts shown in tho evidence; conviction in tho Federal Courts is a sure thing. It is sufficient for a Federal Supervisor to be on ono side and a State Judge of election on the other to secure the con viction of the latter. Unless the Fed eral election laws are repealed or mod ified before this session closes the Dem ocrats might as well put up the shut ters and retire from politics. New Advertisements. Homestead.

Shaw, has for some weeks past been swindling the people of various places in Georgia by representing himself as an agent of the Louisville Courier Jour nal and soliciting subscriptions for it. The Courier-Journal says: “Wo have no such agent, and indeed we employ no traveling agent whatever. Shaw is a scoundrel, and is unknown in this office. He should be arrested and sent to tho penitentiary." The pension roll, since it was first oreated and put in full motion, hus averaged over twenty-nine millions a year, or largely exceeding one-fourth of the interest on ‘he national debt. The Commissioner of Pensions Bays: “ It is estimated that there have not been less than two millions paid out annually foi fraudulent pensions. In my judgment tbe estimate is below, rather tnan above, the actual amount.” The House Committee on Elections has agreed to report a bill appropriating 846, 616.06 for the purposo of payijg tho ex penses of contestants and contestees to seats in the House.

Os. deo'141 *ly St. Clairsvillo(O) Gazette: The effort to kill off Mr. Tilden by charging him with an attempt to buy his way into the Presidency, after he had won it at the polls, is a signal failure. Sammy’s honesty has been vindicated, much to the regret of the Republicans and much to the disgust of certnin so-called Dem ocrats. The cipher telegrams investiga tion lias resulted in President Tildcn’B complete vindication, as we knew it would. Tho Republicans opposed the investigation because they are afraid of Uncle Sammy, and a large numbtr of the Democratic leaders opposed it be cause they are jealous of tho old gen- leman. Both wanted Mr. Tilden kept under a cloud. Hence tbe t-ffirls of numerous politicians of both parties to stifle the investigation. Tho act of the Alabama legislature incorporating the "Port of Mobile” and repealing tho city charter was passed on tho 11th of February and provides for the appointment of three com missioners by the governor who hve already been designated and entered upon their duties. The new govern ment will be completed on tho 1.5th of March by the election of eight poiico commissioners ; and the next thing in order, as in the case of Memphis, will probably be the intervention of the United States court and the appoint ment of n receiver. Afghan fanatics who attempt to as sassinate English officers are, if caught, promptly shot and then burned. This latter process prevents them from goiug to heaven, which is their chief object in killing Englishmen. This treat ment will, it is thought, moderate tbe patriotic enthusiasm of tho children of tho Ameer. _ Constitution: Hayes’ Cabinet had its photograph tnken the other day. Cbro- raos of the group are to be hung on the outer walls of tho frontier forts as pro tections agaiust the Indians. The noble red men may be frightened, but never licked. Whshingt.in Post: “It is highly grati fying to learn from an efficient expo nent of Radical opinion that ‘the supe rior or, dit of the United States Govern ment is due to tho ascendency of the Republican party.’ If that is so, how does it happen that the public credit has steadly improved since the Repub lican party lost its grip, and it became evident that the Democaatic party would soon have entire control of nation al affairs? Interest diopped to four per cent, at which immense sums are offered, when it was apparent that ‘Re publican ascendency’ could no longer be maintained. These are pregnant fucis.” A dispateli to the Galveston News from Suuta Fe, New Mexico, reports more trouble in Lincoln county, in that Territory. A lawyer, who was tbe head of the McSween faction, was shot and instantly killed in front of the court house at Lincoln on the 19th inst. An other dispatch to the same paper, from Fort Worth, Texas, states that on Sun day morning the stage for Fort Yume was halted outside the city limits at Fort Worth by masked highwaymen, and the passengers and mail were robbed, Philadelphia Times : By the mouths of three or four more witnesses, republi cans too, it is established that old Wells, of the Louisiana returning board, tried his best to sell out to Tilden. United States Marshal Wharton believed it, so did Governor Packard, so did Chair man Jewett, and so on. But all this amounts to nothing against the opinion of the Now York Tribune, whicn is that it is “highly improbably” that the turning boards were corrupt. The Judges of the United Stales Su premo Court aro rather sour over tho enactment of the law allowing woman to appear in their awful presence attorneys, and one of them the other evening told some ladies who were quizzing him about it that they intend ed to turn their consulting room into a nursery, where women who wanted to argue coses before them could leave their babies. Gen. Chester A. Arthur, recently de posed as collector at New York, has been unanimously elected chairman of the Ropublican Central Committee of that city. This action is constru d as a rebuke of President Hayes. Time is Money. One fine morning, when Franklin wu8 busy preparing his newspaper for the press, a lounger stepped into the store and spent an hour or mure luck ing over the books, etc., and finally taking one asked the shop buy the price. “One dollar,” w«b the answer. “Ono dollar,” said the lounger; “cun you take less thun that ?” “No, indeed, one dollar is the price. Another hour had nearly passed when the lounger said : “Is Mr. Faauklin at homo?” "Yos, sir, he is in the printing office. “1 want to see him,” said the lounger, The shop boy immediately informed Mr. Franklin that a gentleman was in the store waiting to see him. Franklin was soon behind the counter, when the lounger addressed him thus : 11 Mr. Franklin, what is the lowest you can tuke for tlint book ?” “One dollar and a quarter,” was the ready answer. “One dollar and a quarter ! Why ynur young man asked me ouly a dot lar.” “True,” said Franklin, “and I could have better afforded to have taken that then than to have been called out of the office.” The lounger seemed surprised, and wishing to end the parley of his own making, said: “Come, Mr. Franklin, tell me what is the lowest you can take for it?” “A dollar and a half." “A dollar and a half! Why you of fered it yomself fora dollar and a quar ter.” “Yes,” suid Franklin, “and I hnd bet ter have taken that price then than a dollar and a half now ” The True Way to Invigorato. James G.
