T^e Olilo nominees.
As nsnal there is a wide discrepancy of
opinion in relation to tho Democratic
nominations in Ohio. The Cincinnati
.Enquirer is glorious over the ticket which
it sayois unprecedentedly strong—excep
tionally strong in its personnel not only,
but even stronger in tte pertinence to tbiB
hoar, to this emergency. No ticket could
better, no ticket could eo well, meet and
answer the Bepublican alack on the Dem
ocratic party. Tho soldierly qualities of
tho ticket remorsihssiy destroy the Bee*
tional scheme of the Eepublican party,
for General Ewing was a gallant soldier,
and General Bice has attested hte patri
otism bj giving a part of hia body to the
war for the Union.”
Senator Thurman is alio represented
as deolaring himself delighted with the
ticket, and confident it will win. The
Washington Star, which is Bepublican in
all its sympathies, has this to say about
he matter:
Tho Ohio Democrats have undoubted,
ly put a strong ticket ia (he field. Ew
ing and Biee are both Union soldier*,
and no capital oan be made against the
ticket on tho “confederate brigadier”
ory. The eohiama in the party have been
healed by the aation of the Bishop men
in diotsting the nomination of Ewing
over Bice when they found their eandi*
date could not win, aud by the enbae-
qaent action of the convention in solacing
the Bice men by nominating him for the
sooond place. While some hard money
Democrats may kick against Ewing, he
will probably more than make up their
loss in votes gained from the greenback
ranks. Tho Bepublicans carried Ohio
lsst year by a plurality of only about
three thousand votes, while the nationals
cast a vote of 83,332 for their independ
ent ticket. It is easy to see that if the
Democratic ticket headed by Ewing can
draw away only three or four thousand
votes from the Greenbackers this time it
will win. If, however, the Bepublicans
should win against this strong Demo
cratic ticket, it would show a power in
the Bepublican “ground swell” indica
ting pretty decidedly the result in tho
Presidential contest in 1880.
On the other hand the Bepublican or
gans generally scout at the ticket and
say that it will be easily beaten by a ma
jority, ranging anywhere between thirty
and sixty thousand. There is no donbt
that in any event Oslo will be able to ob-
n&es'nYfie 1 d" id. fo? r &?,?$
thousand mij irity, according to the con
fident declarations of their numerous
friends.
The Gm Trade of Macon.
Some time ago a Northern politician
in a popular speech, drew damaging in.
ferencea about the habits of Southern
people from the number of gin shops to
be found in the country. Qaarreis at
gin shops were frequent. He had often
read of them, and he did not wonder at
such occurrences among'a people so
fond of gin. He did not comprehend
that oar gin is not Holland, bnt cotton
gin, which never intoxicates.
The troth is, the mannfaotnro and re
pair of cotton gins is a very important ina
dnetry of Maeon, and is increasing. At
O. W. Massey’s mill on Friday last we
were told that they were aiming to pro
duce 600 gina this current year, bnt were
behind in the work. This establishment
tire machinery, and has a foundry and
machine shop in which they oast and fin
ish all their iron work. This latter is run
by a noiseless horizontal steam engine of
twelve horse power, bnil: by Soho&9ld &
Son, ot Macon—a perfect machine.
The machinery of the gin shop ia
driven by water and it is interesting to
eeo with what rapidity and precision
wood, steel and iron are brought to the
exact shapes and dimensions required.
Here are gins of all sizes, from ninety
down to forty eawc; with and without
feeders and condensers. The market for
Maesey's gins is co-extensive with the
cotton States. They are ordered from
Virginia to Texas, and are standard ma
chines.
Bat this is only one of the mannfacto-
tories w and abont Macon, which we
have noticed from time to time. Let
the gin trade flourish.
THe AiiantHus Tree.
Tne attention of the Sonthern press is
jost now drawn to the the “trees of
Heaven”—(the Ailauthus) which are In'
bloom and dispensing their fragranoe
powerfully through “the circumambient
air.” The question Ib on the healthful-
ness of this odor. Is it balefal or bene
ficial? Now that point oan be easily de
termined by each enquirer for himself.
Let him take axe and grubbing hoe and
eradicate one of these trees. If he can
do it without an intolerable nausea, then
we will oonoede that he need have no
fear of sea siekneae, and can war Upon
skunks with impunity.
The natural aroma cf this tree is suffi
ciently sickening, but bruise'and wound
it, and strong must be the slomaoh that
is not turned with the effluvia. Let any
man assail them and he cannot long
doubt* that they should ell be destroyed.
And it Is not muoh easier to extirpate the
ailanlhus than the white mulberry. Ev
ery root aanst be removed, and these trees
ars to be seen in snoh abundance about
the road aides aud gullies of Maoon as to
proihiseagood deal of work in the fa
tore.
THe Kellogg Case.
The 8 enate Committee on Privileges and
Elections investigating the Kellogg-Spoff-
ordcaae were.promised unsavory develop
ments, and are not likely to be disappoint-
Kellogg’s witnesses were also Spoff-
ord's witnesses. They made affidavit for
Spoffordtotha sale of their own Totes,
and now come forward and swear for Kel
logg that their own affidavits were for
geries, though one, at least, is in the
handwriting of the deponent. These
witnesses are convenient. They can be
used by both parties over and over again,
l! property compensated; and who will
undertake lo ray they are not as good as
any witnesses in a situation to know the
true inwardness of the Kellogg election
that bogus legislature?

How Tbe Indians are Wronged
and tlie Government Swin
dled.
Among the items charged to Uncle
Sam by the Indian agents, are 53,513
poucdBof baking powder. This the
equaws know as much about as they do
of nitro glycerine or dynamite. But it is
suggested that the Modoca and other
yellow skins ought to be fed upon Vien
na bread and pound cake, hence this im
portant item. We learn from a reliable
scarce, also, that a few years since coal
scuttles were supplied world withont end
to poor “Lo.”or at least were charged to
the government by its agents.
They were used by the Indians as
helmets and the braves were not a little
prond of their head gear. The New York
Bullttin also, is oar authority for saying
that a big snpply of clocks were recently
famished to the savages, we suppose to
enable them to tell exactly how mnch
time is required to take a white settler’e
scalp. But they couldn’t get^the hang
of the ticking machines, so the women
took out the works and strung the wheels
and fixtures around their necks for per
sonal ornaments. The cases were con
verted into rather novel looking water
backets.
Well, perhaps these articles were fully
as attractive and ns6fol to the redmen
as many others with which they are
charged and the government pays for.
Never were a people more foully dealt
with under the sun. For many long
years have the Badical agents fattened
at their cost and the charges of the gov
ernment, and it is abont time that there
was a change in the political deal. Will
the Dsmoctats clean ont the Augean
stable of Badicalism in 1880 ? They can
do so by dropping personal differences
and immaterial issues, and standing
shoulder to shoulder together. Let every
patriot aid in tho good work.
1 be Heath Jfenaliy.
It is announced by cable that the Can
ton of Uri, in Swiizeiland, has submitted
to tbe Federal Council a law which
makes the punishment of murder or in
cendiarism, death. This shows conclu
sively that the experiment of resorting
*» nth-r mrutfls of punishing those crimes
h*» prated ineffectual.
The fiat of the Aioug...,, .
forth that he ^hat takoiH tha at^rtp/? fihali
die by tbe sword. And nothing bat life
fjr life’can atone for deliberate murder.
This has been demonstrated time and
again, where perpetual imprisonment
has been substituted for the death pen
alty.
The uncertainty of tbe law, possible
executive clemenoy, the subsidence of
personal feeling, the adaptation of any
human being to the circumstances that
surround him, the chances of escape, all
tend to diminish tho terrors of incarcera
tion, and in the same ratio increase the
frequency of crime. Skin tor skin, ell
that a man hath will he give for his life,
the admonition of Holy Writ, and
nothing can be truer. Hence, the impo
tence of any punishment short of death
to the mamlajer.
One of the few defeota in onr
is that iliuse wbioh confers the"rig£t
to the jury in a murder case, of
reoommeeding the prisoner to the men
oy of the court, with the in j (motion
that when this is done the judge shall,
not msy, commute the death penalty to
imprisonment for lire. This amounts to
the praotioal abolition of capital punish
ment, and is eo generally received. For
that jury never has or will bs constructed
to whom, wheu the question of condemn
ing to death a criminal is presented,
with the dear perogativa at Will of a rec
ommendation to meroy, in whloh some
members will not be found ready to pur
sue that course. And even one stub
born objection effeotnaliy {settles tbe
question.
Wo donbt not that ere long the evils
growing out of the almost certain es
cape from death of the most desperate
assassins in the country, will call for a
change in this respect of the fundamental
law of the commonwealth.
There can be no security to human
life when tha fear of death ia removed
from the eyes of law breakers, and those
who imbrue their hands in innocent
blood.
Ewing or Foster.
Commenting on the Ohio nominititjn*,
the Herald says:
L—t year the Bepublicans carried Ohio
by .ltry plurality of ■ little more than
3,GOj votes. That hair’s breadth success
of the Ohio Bepublioans lut year was
owing to the foot that the Greenback par
ty, er “Nationals,” as they choose to oall
themselves ran an Independent tioket.
The total vote of this faotion amounted
to 33,332. Had It been thrown on the
Democratio side the Democrats wonld
have carried Ohio last year by a ma
jority of 35,178. The Inevita
ble inference from the Ohio elections of
last year is that the combined Demo
cratio and Greenback vote would bring
the Bepublioans into a hopeless minority.
Had Bishop or Bioe been nominated yes
terday the Greenback party would hold
the balanoe, and by running a separate
ticket, wonld easily insure the succees of
Mr. Foster. The nomination of Ewing
npeeta this calculation. The fact that
the Greeback convention at Columbna
nominated a separate ticket amounts to
nothing. The greenbackers have not
the slightest chanoe of electing the ticket
they have nominated, and in the progress
of the canvass their rank and file will de
sert to Ewing, who is as strenuous a
Graenbacker as any of them.
A Glimpse at Some of the £ vents
in the History of the Late
Gen. Shields.
Major General James Shields, who died
suddenly in Ottumwa, Iowa, recently,
was an Irishman by birth, and a lawyer
by profession.
He was born in the county of Tyrone,
Ireland, in 1810, and came to this coun
try when he was only sixteen years of
age. At the time of his decease ho was
sixty-nine years old, and had devoted
forty years to the public service. He
participated in the Florida Seminole war,
and was promoted from the ranks for
gallantry. Afterwards ho embarked in
political life, was elected to tho Illinois
Legislature, made Associate Justice of
the Supreme Court, succeeding Stephen
A. Douglass on the bench, and was a
special friend of that great statesman.
He was also intimate with Presidents
Polk and Lincoln, and always was re
garded as a man of honor who coaid be
ttaated fully.
"We have room, however for no pro
tracted sketch of the old hero’s life and
career,and simply append a brief aoconnt
of his Mexican campaigns, taken from
the New York Times:
War broke out with Mexioo. It was
jn the spring of 1846 that the State of
Illinois, having raised and equipped a
regiment of infantry, General Shields
was appointed to its command with the
rank of Brigadier General. He was now
in that work which was nearest his
heart—he was fighting. He served un
der General Taylor, (afterward Presi
dent.) nnder General Wool and nnder
Genetel Soott. A6 the Beige of Vera
Ornz he made himself noticed by bis
conrage, zeal and activity. At Cerro
Gordo tbe task was confided to him of
attackisg the Mexican reserves nnder
Santa Anna in person. Under the fiery
onset of the United States foroes, led by
their General—he was always in front—
the Mexicans, taken entirely by
surprise, were swept from the field,
scattered and utterly broken. A bat
tery of six pieces of artillery waB carried
at the point of the bayonet. It was in
this charge that dashing commander re
ceived a wound which he and everybody
else thought mortal. A grape shot
passed completely through his body,
penetrating one lung and coming out
near the spine. A Mexican surgeon per
formed tbe remarkable operation—now
historio in the annals of surgery—of
drawing a silk handkerchief through his
patient’s body, thus removing tho clot
ted blood asd saving Gen. Shields’ life,
in ten wuexs me crenerul n-» 0 ; n the wul-
* *u« Viattles
of Contreras aud Cherubusco. Tho latter
was one of the bloodiest battles ot tha
war, for the American troops had to fight
ten times their nnmber of the enemy
ontil reinforcements could come np. Gen.
Shields again had to meet, in the part
assigned to him, his old enemy, Santa
Anna, and again defeated him as before.
bnt in doing it he led the charge of tho
“Palmetto” Brigade, of Sooth Carolina,
and the New York Volunteers, in which
half the nnmber was lost. After this
came the storming of Chapnltapec, in
whioh Gen. Shields was badly shot in the
arm, but he refused to leave the field
while the fighting was going on. Peace
soon after pat an end to the war.
With the subsequent history of Gen.
Shields daring tha late civil war, and his
career as a Democratic statesman in the
Senate of the United States, our readers
are doubtless acquainted.
He was a brave and honorable soldier
and citizen, and died almost in abject

and eventually banish every dyspeptic

those many indescribable and disagree

too often perpetuated by tnjndicione

Completion of «he Refunding

Baltimore San.]
The last of the ten-dollar refunding
certificates have been printed and distri
buted to the different agencies, and this
closes out completely all operations of
the Treasury m connection with the
funding of the 4 per cent bonds. No
more of these nor of the certificates can
be sold, Binoe there are no other bonds
whioh the Treasury can now call in.
The sales of certificates np to Saturday
last amounted to 133,874,990 of tbe $40,■
000,000 authorized to be seat out, leaving
|G,125,010 in hands of depositories or.in
unreported sales. The refunding opera
tions of the Treasury daring the past
year have been as sucoesfifal as any finan
cial business ever done by any govern
ment. The sales of the certificates have
been chiefly made by the agencies in the
large cities, bnt many have been sold by
postmasters, of whom some five have
given the requisite bonds and become de

mode of appointment is governed by (he in

2. When the principal debtor has, by moit-
gsge, indemnified a guarantor of the debt,
and the contract of guaranty baa never been
repudiated or aonght to be evaded, but is
recognized and, in part, performed, the
mortgagor cannot avoid the mortgage by
urging that the guaranty is not, and hia
never been, obligatory.
3. When a mortgage whioh purports on its
face to be for the better seeming of the due
payment of oettain bonds and obligations,
and also for indemnifying the guarantor
is sought to be enforced at tho ins.anoe of
the guarantor alone, the validity of ita ob
jects is not in question, except so far as the
indemnity is conoerneld. Whether it might
be enforced in behalf of the guarantor, need
not be decided.
4. A mortgage of a railroad to trustees, for
the obj eo Is above specified, which gives them
power to take possession of the road and nae
it in certain contingencies, and at their dis
cretion, on coitain conditions, to soli it, con
templates that they msy do either or both.
The trustees need not confine themselves to
either measure, but may first enter and then
sell, using the read for tho purpose of the
trust unhl a sale is effected.
6. Under the special terms of the mortgage
now for oonatruotlon, default in paying the
principal of the bonds Is not a condition pre
cedent to exercising tbe power of sale. It
is enongh that some of tne coupons for in
terest have become due, and that tho mort
gagor, failing to pay them on demand, has
continued in defanlt for sixty days after re
ceiving notice of the intention to sell.
6. With the biJ, answers, and all tho cir-
cnmstances before him, the chincrilor was
warranted in treating demand for payment,
and notice of the intended sale, as sufficient
ly established.
7. Where a power of sale ia to be exercis
ed by a trustee in oaso of continned default
for sixty days after notice to the mortgagor
of an intention to sell, bat not until the sale
has been previously advertised foraixty days,
the two periods are not synchronous, but
successive; the term required for tho adver
tisement to run does not begin until the term
of the prescribed notice has expired.
8. A stipulation by a railroad corporation
to appropriate certain bonds held by it on
deposit, to the completion of tbe railroad of

tract not by them folly performed,” is not

is slid stipulation an undertaking to leep
down interest on outstanding bonds whilst
the work of completion was in progress,
though tbe firm bad agreed to do eo in the
prior contract to which the stipulation makes
referee ce.
9. For any breach of tha foregoing stipu
lation, compensation may be had in dama
ges, the corporation being solvent; and an
ises it appeared that each damages, togeth
er with tbe remnant of the bonds on deposit,
wonld probably cincil the defanlt for whioh
the sale of the railroad nnder the mortgige
is impending, the sale should not be enjo'n-
ed. More especially is this true, as the
morgsgor company, though bound to keep
down tbe interest on its outstanding bonds,
did not do so, bat suffered the same to fall
on tbe other company as guarantor, aud
honoe is not in a favorable position tooom-
plain of any delay by tho latter in prosecut
ing tbe nnfiniched work of oonstrnotion.
10. As it is now certain that the morigtsor
has had f all notice _of the intention to sell
notice before tho property wis advertise!
was tho only meritorious ground of the bill,
which ground baa disappeared by lapse of

for sixty days, proceed.
Judgment affirmed.

THiournorx.
I confess to considerable dimnosjof vis
ion in regard to the outcome of the present
political tangle. The telegrams have ot
course folly informed yon of the last Demo
cratic decision with regard to the appropria
tion bills in dispute, and you can judge just
about as well of the reenlt as it you were
here, Perhaps it may sound caption* when
I say that onr people might have j ast as well
adopted this line at first, and still more so if
I add that they could have done s great deal
better without straining their judgment to
any alarming extent. But don’t let ns be too
hard on wisdom. They haven!t made as big
a botch of the jsb as they might have done,
which ie saying a great deal. If Hayes don’t
veto the new bills we shall have txaented s
decently clever backward movement—not a
•• retreat” of coarse, bnt merely a change of
position to “ rectify onr lines,” as the gene
rals used to say daring tbe late war in their
offioial dispatches. Let u* hope that Hayes
wont be bull-h9*ded abont tb9 matter.
The new bills will be speedily prepared and
bronght forward. The appropriation com
mittee was called to meet this morning for
that purpose rad one of them may get In be-
fnra .the House adjourns, the afternoon,
porpoee, but it is pretty eafe to assamo tbiaf
they will stand together in any event. If
Garfield says not filibuster, they will let tbe
new meaenres go through withont a racket.
Of course I except Conger. He is bound to
make an ass and a nuisance of himself at all
hizards. The old galoot ia never eo happy
aa when he ia making himself hatefnl, aud
one of he special delights is to bedevil At
kins, chairman of the appropriation commit
tee. Conger, like Mr. Hill, never gets ex
cited, but keeps as oool aa a wedge under all
provocations, while Atkina is Jost the re
verse and, as the saying goes, *• flies off the
handle” with exceptional ease. To eee Con
ger aggravate Atkins aud the latter get hot
and rasp his tormentor and then watch the
latter pretend either rsge or wounded feel
ings ia good as a play some times.
By the way, speaking of Conger, reminds
me of something I saw in the Beoord one
day last week, which I herewith enclose It
ahows to what an alarming extent tha Pina
fore craze has gone, and ateo illustrates
iogs of the Hozee :** “ —’*"

a axxxaan ncraress
Seems to pervade Washington at present,
outside, as well as in political cirole*. The
hotels are nearly empty, few eight-seers are
noticed, and even the women seem to have
lost their interest in what is going on at the
capital. The galleries in both ohambers pre
sent a beggarly array of empty benches, rad
even the negroes no longer fill their accus
tomed places. Where, a month ago, you
saw ft dozen or more people, now you scarce
ly aee one, and the grand rotunda which
then, rad generally is, thronged with idlers
eitting, standing and a trolling around /’do
ing” the Tramonll and other pictures, is
nearly deserted. Aa for the lobby, it baa
made aoaroely a sign this extra eetsion.
Nearly all the well kaewn figures and faoes
of ita leaders rad lieutenants are conspien-
ona by their absence. This ia awfdl Hard
times for the camp followers and errand
innners rad shows very plainly in their gene-
rally rusty and dilapidated appearance. I he
bulk of them seem flat broke, with not even
the ghoet of a stake in sight. They swelter
in last winter’s suits, ana hats, rad boots,
rad affects military air by wearing their
coats closely buttoned to bide time’s rava
ges aa tj their linen, or washerwoman’s
hardness of heart in the matter of farther
credit Verily this noble army of bnmmers
and jobbers has had rough times ainee tte
Btdiesis lost thtir grip at the capital, ftnd
the oonntry shonid give the Democrats great
credit for that. Tney may nave sinned and
blundered of tenor, bnt they have allowed no
joba to win, or steals to aueeaed. The Bad-
reals sneer at the “ brigadier*” and denonnoe
tnoir allies, bnt they can’t find any stolen
property in their oamp. This ia why the loo
by rad tbe Badteala devide their time be
tween aigbing for the flash daya of old and
cursing aa “traitors” and “rebels” those
who have their return impotsible I amuse
myself some times by tackling one of these
old lobby pirates and drawing him ont to
make comparison between the new and the
old time*. It ia high fan. Hia wicked old
.yea almost glitteu, and his sensual old
month nearly waters aa he dilates on the
good old days of F«clfio mail rad credit mo
odier slash, when Jim Blaine was taking
small fi/era” and Oakes Amea was putting
his ahareewher# they “ would do the moat

oenoea by carsing the Democrat* rad eighing

I mean an adjournment, of course. The
talk now is of-lb. 16lb, sad really I can’t
see how it ia possible to prolong it mnoh
longer than that date. All the new bills oan
bs laid before Mr. Hsyas by tha end of next
week, and if ha signs them, there ia an end
of the aeeaion right away. If he does not
there la nothing to do but either send them
without any limitation* or checks, whatever,
or let them fail. In either event, twenty >
four hours ought to be ample time in which
to set, definitely one way or another. If the
weather gets actually hdl, again, I don't
think there will be the leait doubt of an ear
ly adjournment. That will settle ths ques
tion more definitely than a caucus decAion.

The town waa agog last night over the

aeoeptabla to any wing of the party here rad
don’t wonder at it. Ewing ie a deal more of
ft craxy Greenbacks? than Democrat, and
comes of a family that was raised to bate
Democrats and Democracy as a solemn du
ty. Judging from his utterance*, hie true
plaoe is in ‘ha Greenback ranks. I suppose
he will gat some support from them, bnt
will doubtless lose many hard money Dsmo-
cratio votes who will not atnltify tcemselvea
by supporting snoh a candidate on snoh a
platform. Bin nomination is also a menace
to Judge Thurman, which ia another reason
why it eranot, aa it seems tome, be a strong
one. If Ewing iaelaotad and the Democrat*
carry the Legislature, he will want Judge
Thurman’* plaoe in the Senate and will posh
for it with all the family boldness. Bioe
was the Thurman candidate .sad ought to
have won. Aa mattem now stand I shill

with tables, chair*, camp atcole, lamps,
cooking utensils, and a large awning.
The headquarters have the eame equip
