WauDep’t, Office Chut Signal Officer,)
Washington, D.’ G., Jnly 29, 7:40p. xr. j
The barometer has risen since Friday after
noon on the Pacifio coast and west of Illinois.
The area of low barometer in the latter region
has apparently extended northward, and the
pressure has fallen decidedly on Lake. Superior.
The barometer has risen on the coast of Texas,
but has fallen from Florida northward. Areas of
high barometer are central over Ohio and Maine.
The temperatu iehas fallen from Maine to New
Jersoy, and has risen from Lake Erie to Illinois
and northwards. High easterly wind*,- w»u»
cloud and rain, continue on the immediate New
England coast. Cloud and rain are again re
ported from South Carolina to Louisiana. Lo
cal rains have fallen on t':e middle Atlantic
coast and from Tennessee to Minnesota.
Probabilities.—The conditions are favorable
for local storms to-night from Lake Superior
southward to Kentuoky, and warmer weather
will probably prevail on Sunday, Cloudy and
threatening weather will probably ooniinue east
of Louisiana,.and extend with local storms to
Virginia. Local storms are also probable for
Sunday throughout New England.
Long Branch, Jnly 29.—The President and

Papal Affairs.
The following are the Paris and Rome specials
to the Herald, which were the subject of a brief
press dispatch a few days linoe. It will be seen
that we misapprehended the movement to elect
a successor to Pope Pins:
Paris, July 24.—Great preparations are being
made at the chateau at Corte, in Corsica, for
the reception of the Pope, whose arrival is daily
expected.
The owner of the chateau is M. Valery, who
has placed it at the disposal of the Pope. Car
dinal Antonelli had already several months ago
arrived at an understanding with M. Valery
with regard to the departure of the Pope from
Rome to Corsica.
The French clergy have Bet all their influence
in motion in order that France should guarantee
the temporal sovereignty of the Pope in Corsica.
The action of the National Assembly regard
ing the proposition in favor of restoring the
Holy Father to his temporalities is equivalent
to “ laying the motion on the table.”
Rome, July 24, 1871.—The Pope may leave
Rome any day. There is great excitement and
bustle in the Vatican. Messengers and attend
ants hurry to and fro, and the cardinals of the
Papal household are almost constantly in coun
cil with the Holy Father.
Admittance is denied to ordinary visitors, and
the persons' of the Pope’s immediate retinue
observe great secrecy. Among the officers of
the Papal guard there are, however, str»*’' (e
whispers about the intended ^' parture 0 f"th e
Pope,
.Oom pervades the whole Papal household,
as if some dread event were imminent. All
present indications point to an intention on the
part of the Pope to leave the Vatican.
This step is generally attributed to the coun
sels of Cardinal Antonelli and Pater Beckx, the
General of the Jesnits.
The Holy father, it is said, feels even now so
reluctant abont leaving Rome that he may aban
don the idea of .going at the last moment.
The old age of the Pope and his growing fee
bleness are matters of grave concern to the pre
lates of Rome.
The College Cardinals have represented to
the Pontiff the propriety of electing a successor
to be ready for the apprehended emergency and
to avoid the confusion which might ensue upon
the demise of the Holy Father.
Measures have already been taken for the
choice of the next Pope. Several cardinals are
adverse to the policy of the irreconcilables and
propose to choose a moderate member of the
collegiate—one who is not unfriendly to Victor
Emanuel—in order to bring abont a compromise
between the Italion kingdom and the Papacy.
Cardinal Oornillo de Pieti Is mentioned as the
candidate of the majority of the collegiate.
The Holy Father is going to publish a Sylla
bus regarding the Italian occupation of Romo.
He will declare that all temporal powerover the
Roman States rightfully, belongs to him, and
that it is void when held against him.

The Monroe County Fair. ^
Availing myself of the polite invitation of
the Agricultural-Society of Monroe County,-1
visited the delightful town of Forsyth on Sat
urday, the 29 th of Jnly, in oompany with many
citizens of Bibb to see the" exposition of our
neighbors of Monroe. I think i* dno to the
good citizens of this lime-honored county to
say that a more creditable county fair it would
be hard to produoe. The stock displayed was
very good—fine horses, mules, cattle, sheep and
bogs—also poultry of the various species. Then
the products of tho plantation, farm and gar
den were as fine &31 have ever seen. The no
ble ear of com—the fine sweet and Irish pota
toes, the wheat, oats, rye and barley—the large
and full fruited cotton stalks, all gave promise
of an abundant harvest and a remunerative re
ward to the industrious citizens of great old
Monroe. - ....
Bat I cannot forbear to mention, with the
highest commendation, the department in which
the ladies participated. There was their handi
work in beautiful and tasteful colors—their ele
gant floral tables emitting the fragrance of a
thousand flowers— the fine loaves of bread and
beautiful rolls—the elegantly decorated cakes—
the jellies, preserves and other sweet-meats—-all
graced and presided over by Middle Georgia’s
beautiful and blooming girls, more attractive to
us than all other earthly blessings.
But we mast mention that this county con
tains more genial generous hospitality than any
part of tho world we havo ever had the good
fortune to visit. Among those vieing for the
premium cf hospitality we must mention our
old friends, Captain Mobley, Gus Cabiniss, Bud
Hammond, Captain Donn, Major -Bean and
scores of others. The President, Colonel G.
W. Adams, was at home" in the midst of the
multitude. Bat wo were particularly impressed
with tho urbane yot active manner of onr old
friend Dr. Lawton, whose face seemed to be lit
up with smiles, as he passed from table to table
and stall to stall, and then realized the full re
sponse which his fellow-citizens, both male and
female, had made to his call upon them for a
County Fair. I regret, Messrs. Editors, that
the whole State could not have the same spirit
infused into them that glorious old Monroe has
this day displayed. . ^ isitob.
Charleston Election.—Charleston holds a
municipal election next Wednesday, August be
ing selected by the negroes as the time because
many of the whites are then absent. The whites
hsvs put out a conservative ticket beaded by
the name of Gen. John A. Waggoner. The ne
groes have bad more trouble in getting up a
ticket, and by last accounts had two in the field
—one characterised as the Mackey-Mushington
ticket, the other aa Squashee-Gumbo.
An Irish magistrate censuring some boys for
loitering in the street, said, “If everybody were
to stand in the street, how could anybody get
by?”
“Gins’* Baby.”
Almost everybody has heard of tho book
called “Ginx’s Baby.” It made quite a hit at
home in England. Tho following i3 an intelli
gible account of it. It was written by a Sara
toga correspondent of the New York Commer
cial. A lady tells him what the book is—as fol
lows:
“WhoisGinx?”
“Ginx was the father of the thirteenth baby.
Ginx was poor, and becoming impatient at Mrs.
Ginx’s increasing babies, after she had had the
twelfth, declared that he would throw tho thir
teenth off" of . Westminister Bridge.”
“Did he do it?”
“No, but he discovered the infant, after Mrs.
Ginx had succeeded in hiding it away for sev
eral days—seized it, and started for the bridge,
and—”
“Threw it in!”
“No, the police stopped him. Ginx expostu
lated ; said he didn’t want the baby; that
he had twelve already at home; that ho was a
poor man, and. had no use for the thirteenth
Ginx. Then a Catholic nun . came along, and
offered to feed it and save its life.”
‘‘ ‘And neves bring it back?’ asked Ginx.
“‘Never!’
“ ‘He’s yours—to have and to old!’ And then
Ginx ran back to his wife and wretched twelve
children, a happy man.
“What then?”
“Then,”said she, “ the tug commenced. The
ainN’ffirifo had to gO'&Ild
nurse the baby twice a day. Father Coxen
wanted to—and did—make the sign of the cross
on Mm. Ginx before the baby was allowed to
nurse. Mrs. Ginx told this to a Protestant
friend.”
“Sign of the cross, Mrs. Ginx. Oh, horrors
they are making a prosely te of the baby—
those atrocious Catholicssaid the friend.
“ Then the Protestant clergy got hold of the
scandal. The Protestant papers rioted over the
matter. The clergy went to a lawyer. ‘The
Catholics have forcibly distrained a Protestant
baby, and are trying to make a Catholic of him
—what shall we do ?’ they asked.”
“Bring an action,” said lawyer Meddle, “an
action of habeas corpus.”
“The case went to court. Thousands of
pounds were spent The newspapers talked
abont the ‘Ginx-Baby Case.’ ‘Ginx’s-Baby
Funds’ were collected, tho lawyers took the
money, and the baby was surrendered to the
Protestants. Boon the baby fond was exhausted;
its nurse in vain demanded pay for nursing him,
and finally one day she left the poor baby on a
club-house doorstep to starve. Another humane
religious society'took it'after the alms-hcnses
had said they would not have it Another re
ligions controversy ensued. The baby was al
ways poor*^iklf starved, and neglected, wMle
everybody was fighting over bis religion.”
“Whatlseoame of him-r*
' “Well, after fifteen years of kicks, Of cold
neglect, of ignorance, and starvation—while nil
the world and the newspapers were talking about
how the Catholics, had forcibly distrained a
Protestant child from its doting parents—the
poor, neglected, sorrowful, ignorant boy went
one dark night, with not even a flickering star
to see his act, went and jumped—”
“Off Westminster bridge? .
“The same; and at the very place where the
polioeman stopped Ginx fifteen years before, as
he held the little innocent cause of all tho
trouble over the rolling flood.”
moot:
OoL Bristow had never taken a Russian bath.
He had heard that it was famous for oleansing
purposes, and as he wished to get the loyal odor
from his person and the taste of Grant out'of
his mouth, he determined -to try the Russian
bath. He says that he aaoended a dim lit iron
stairway and entered a small room, where he
encountered an aged gentleman with snowy locks
and long white beard, whom he at first mistook
for the late Gideon Welles. This shocked him
a little, for he was under the impression that
Andy Johnson’s little lamb bad been snngly
tucked away some years since in the family
vault in' Connecticut. A little reflection, how
ever, satisfied him that this could not be the
late Gideon, from the fact that he opened his
month and demanded one dollar for a ticket-
The late Secretary of the Navy neve* so
practical a thing in his life.
Having purchased the ticket and been mo
tioned to a door which be opened, he was very
mnoh abashed to find himself in the presence of
half a dozen muscular Germans dressed like
Hans merm aid, “wit nodings on.”
.oy one cf these he was shown intoa closet,
where he proceeded to put himself in the ab
stract by hanging his graceful garments on di
vers and sundry pegs around. Then, for a sec
ond or two, he stood hesitating at the door, his
well-known bashful nature making it necessary
to summon np all his resolution for a charge oa
the Teutons.
Golonel Bristow is a brave man, however,
and when he makes up his mind to do anything
he’s bound to do it. He has frequently been
under fire, and at Shiloh was left on the field
for twenty-four hours, supposed to be dead, but
none of this was so trying as the entrance to the
domestic circle of the native Germans in a state
of nudity. He did this, and was immediately
conducted by two stalwart sons of the faderland
to a room that was so filled with hot steam that
he could scarcely breathe or see across it Guided
by the attendants, he was led to a marble slab
and motioned to lie down. The marble was so
hot that he immediately flopped.
Thi3 stragetic movement, however, did not
help Mm mnoh, for he found the maTble as dis
agreeable to Ms front as it had been to his rear;
so he continued to flop. To this interesting
business he was left abont twenty minutes, and
perspired at the mostfearfnl rate. All the fluids
he had been taking daring the oampaign in Ken
tucky dame out through the pores. He recog
nized his various drinks as they exuded, from
old Bourbon to Robertson county whisky.
At the end of the twenty minutes, which our
gallant Colonel thought as many hours, the at
tendant returned with a bucket of hot water,
two scrubbing brashes and a huge cake of com
mon soap. With these he began lathering and
scrubbing the eloquent gentleman from Ken
tucky. To be scrubbed down in this Btyle is a
little hard upon a thin-skinned, sensitive man,
and the Colonel remonstrated, squirmed and
struggled to no purpose, and at last, striking
out from the shoulder, knocked the Teuton flat
on Ms book. Our German fellow-citizen rose
to his feet, as if nothing had happened, bnt evi
dently used to this sort of things, and tried to
smother onr legal friend with a huge sponge
heavy with hot soapsuds. The Colonel pawed
it away and asked if the fellow wanted to kill
Mm.
“Ob, we kills many beeples every day,” was
the cool response.
At the end of the scrubbing the Colonel was
conducted to a huge tank of ice-cold water and
told to get in. As he hesitated upon the brink
the German suddenly inserted himself head
foremost in the small of tho Colonel’s back, and
sent onr Kentucky hero floundering in the
water. The cold water was so pleasant that Col.
B. was delighted; he disported himself like a
dolphin. At the end of five minutes the Ger
man, who stood on the brink with arms folded,
looking like Napoleon in exile, cried out:
“Now, you gomes out."
“No, I won’t,” replied the Colonel. “Thi3
is the best place I’ve found, abont here, and I’m
going to stay." * - =
“You gomes out, py dam, or I go gits you.
“Don’t come in here,” cried the Colonel,” or
there will he one of your family drowned in
stead of being hanged.”

for freight and passengers in Wales, and in the

most advantageously adopted, and where'Use
cost of the common gauge forbids the construc
tion of railroads in portions of the country
where they are mnoh needed, tiueb roads are,
however,..in progress here snd in Canada, and
we noticed the other day mention of the arrival
at Bt. Louis of a dozen cars en route to the
*oad now constructing from Denver, in Colora
do, to Santa Fe, thence to be extended to El
Faso and San Diego. The trunk line of tMs
road will be about five hundred miles long, and
to El Faso the distance is some three hundred
and fifty miles farther. The cara are’built at
Wilmington and at Philadelphia. Externally
they look precisely like the ordinary cars, bnt
inside there are three seats, two. on one side and
one on the other, the double and single seats be
ing arranged in each half of the oar, so u to
make a proper balance. Smoking-ears nave
side benches. The cars are four and six-
wheeled. The Iooomotives have six- wheela,
and weigh 25,300 pounds. They can make
thirty or forty miles an hour. The cost of
building these roads is usually put at $14,000
per mile, against say $24,000 for the common
gauge, and the dead weight carried Is vastly in
favor of the new gauge. The Denver road is
estimated to cost $8,000 per mile..
While this reform has been received with
hesitaney here, it has been oordially adopted in
other countries. In Russia, lines are to be con
structed from the Baltio to Siberia. In India
the new gauge will soon number thousands of
miles, if the magnificent plans there projected
are earried out. The British possessions in the
South Seas are also inaugurating the construc
tion of these roads. In Egypt and-in the East
ern Provinces of Canada, a like movement is in
progress. These have all been'stimnlated by
the success of the experiment in Wales, where
the engineer, Mr. Fairlie, has demonstrated con
clusively tho substantial advantages of these
lines. They mark the dawn of a new era in
railroad building, and they suggest to the out
lying districts in this country, now longing for
railway facilities and pleading for subsidies
from Legislatures, that they need no longer call
on Hercules for aid. They have but to build
aocording to their means* and they will soon
have communication with the world, wMle they
will send a large and growing trafflo to the more
oostly trank lines.. This subject has attracted
muoh attention in Massachusetts, and the enter
prise is certain to be set in operation in that
State, where it will result in giving railroad
facilities to the most sequestered towns.—Com

We copy the following singular story from
tho Clinton, Iowa, Herald:
Sioux City, last winter, had an Old Maids’
Society, and they had a dinner, and speeches,
and a general vowiiig all around that they would
lead a single life, and eschew the naughty men
forever. But, it is said, there is generally a
black sheep in the flock, and so it seemed there
was one in this. -While vowing vengeance on
the male sex, these decaying sisters were dumb
founded by one of their nnmber, Miss Panthea
L. Kennedy, who arose and most charmingly
flung into their midst the following bit of trea
son to celibacy: .
“Sisters in waiting—all for husbands—we
have met, because wo can’t help ourselves, to

pointed by our Chief Magistrate. But tell me;

so intense that he perspired mixed drinks taken
before tho war. After a time he was put under
a series of shower baths of the most terrifio
sort.
When at last onr learned friend merged from
the torture, he was so exhausted that he had to
employ two able-bodied policemen to carry Mm
to a hack, and, aided by these nocturnal lumin
aries, who told tho hackman to “take that
drunken cuss to the depot for Washington,” he
succeeded in getting to the sleeping ear, and
just had strength enough left to toll in and drop
asleep.
Colonel Bristow had telegraphed Ms proposed
arrival in Washington, so that his man met Mm
at the depot with Ms carriage and watohed the
throng of passengers in hopes of seeing the So
licitor General. The Solicitor General,-howev
er, did not make his appearance. The cars
were uncoupled and the Pallman dormitories on
wheels switched off. The man returned home,
and was again sent down to tho depot with or
ders to search for the Colonel, TMs ho did,
and at the end of two hours found our legal dig
nitary sonnd asleep in section seven, and, on
being awakened, made some incoherent re
marks touching scrubbing brashes and steam,
that left the impression on the by-standers that
the Solicitor was not clothed in Ms right mind.
Row They Flake a Ku-klux:.
One Payne, of Estelle county, Kentucky,
who turned State’s evidence, gives the follow
ing information:
I first signified my intention of joining the
band to Henry Adams, -working in the same
drift with me,- abont tho 17th of May. Henry
then took me to tho middle of tho drift, and in
the presence of John Pattrick, having me put
my left hand on my heart and hold up my rij ’ ‘
administered the following oath, to wMch I
sented: “You do solemnly swear you will not
reveal a sign or pass-word of this organization,
to which you now attach yourself; also, you
will aid and assist any brother in any difficulty
in wMch he maybeoome involved; and you
will support the Democratic party; and may
you suffer your body to be cut in four parts and
cast into four quarters of the earth before you
will reveal a sign or password bplonging to tMs
secret organization.”
I do not know the oath by heart, bnt thS
above is about it. There is also sometMng
about negro in it. Adams also gave me
the signs and passwords.
To recognize a brother at a distance we raise
onr hat with the right hand and poll tire brim
down over the right eye. The answer is the

whioh is the test word of the order. If I want

“welL” If I still require further proof I say
“Avigilia;” if he is all righthe replies “eternal

“What is most like cedar?’’ He would answer,
“A dead rebel.” I would ask “Why?”, He to
answer “Beoause it never dies.” If I get into
a difficulty and see I am overpowered, and de
sired to know if any brother Was present I look
my arms across my breast, as if cold, and Bay,
“I wish I knew if any St. Mary’s childem were

be members of the band they will immediately
desist and we become friends.

A. W. Hubbard, Sioux City, Tuesday evening,
June 27th, by Rev. E. H; Avery, Mr. Wm. D,
Irvine and Miss Panthea L. Kennedy.
Ttae Queen’s Purse.
Members of the British Parliament are ac
quiring the bad habit of asking ngly questions.
Mr. Dixon is desirous of knowing whether the
Civil List can be reduced. TMs is a pertinent
question, following olosely as it does'upon the
abolition, by royal warrant, of purchase in the
army. The Queen has deliberately disregarded
the pecuniary losses to wMch officers maybe
subjected, and now a raid seems to be meditated
upon her own right of property. The reply of
Mr. Gladstone to the question now raised in the
House of Commons, is that the Civil List was
fixed at the beginning of the reign of Viotoria,
and that it cannot be changed. The Queen’s
allowance is less than that of some of her pre
decessors. George L had £1,000,000, ont of
wMoh he paid the salaries of jndges, ambassa
dors, and other officers. Under William IY. the
royal allowance was relieved of various charges,
and reduced to £510,000. It is understood also
that the Crown may-have a private and separate
estate. Tire allowance to Queen Victoria for the
support Of her household and the dignity of the
throne is £385,000. In addition she has the
revenues of the Dnohy of Lancaster, wMch
amount to some £80,000. The members of the
royal family reoeive £111,0001a annuities, and
besides all these are the revenues of the Prince
of Wales from the Duchy of Cornwall, amount
ing to some £55,000 pounds a year. The.Queen’s
puree and that of her family, therefore, reach
the clever figure of some £580,000, a sum suffi
cient to cause some question among those who
regard royalty as a' burden and an expensive
lnxory. And there ia abundant evidence that
the nnmber of these is increasing, not merely
among such desperate fanatics as rejoiced when
the late royal infant died, but among sober and
thoughtful men, in'the ranks of those who have
made a.place and a name, for themselves by hon
est toil, and whose accumulation bears the stain
of no 'government subsidy. - There is a wide
spread feeling that the throne eostS more than
it is worth, and that though a crown may be
well enough, the people should not be taxed to
support au its adjunots, particularly when they
are so numerous as under the present benignant
and motherly Queen.—Commercial Advertiser■

Science Advances.'—As -soon as an article pur
porting to be of utility has been tested, and its
merits endorsed by public opinion, unprincipled
parties endeavor to replenish their depleted purses
by counterfeiting and substituting a spurious for
the genuine article. Some time since, mercury, In
the disguise of pills, powdors, etc., was given for
all diseases of the stomach and liver, while quinine
waa freely adminiatored for the chills. At length
Hostetter’s Stomach Bitters made its advent, and
an entire new system of healing was inaugurated.
The benficial effects of this valuable preparation
were at once acknowledged, and mineral poisons
suffered to sink into that obscurity to which an en
lightened ago has consigned them. There have been
many spurious bitters palmed upon the community,
which, after trial, have been found perfectly worth
less, while Hostetter's has proved a blessing to
thousands, who owe to it their restoration to health^
For many years we have Watched the steady pro
gress of Hostetter’s Stomach Bitters in public

complaints arising from the stomach of a morbid
nature, and we are free to say that it can be relied
upon aa a certain relief and remedy. Its proprie
tors have made the above preparation, after years
or careful study and sitting, and are now reaping
the reward claimed by this valuable specific, and
wMch.they so richly merit. It is the only prepara
