Suicide.
We rsgret to chronicle the death of Mr. William C’
Smith, better known as Buck Smith, residing near
Island Creek, which occurred by his own hand on last
Friday morning about 9 o’clock. Mr. S. was an old
and respectable citizen of Hancock county. He waa
about til) years of age and leaves a large family. On
Friday morning he went to Hie house of Mr. Reynolds
* tenant of his, where he obtained a gun and going a
short distance from the house sat down, placed the
muzzle of the gun to his head and pullod the trigger,
killing himself instantly. Depression of spirits produ
ced by financial embarrassment is supposed to the
cause of the deaprra^ act.
The Kuiu of Recssslractisa.
The New York Financier, reviewing "the debt con
dition of the Southern States,” ns presented by the
Kn-klux Committee’s report, says:
It is safe to say, however, that in not one of the
eleven Stales is the debt all registered, settled and
fully ascertained; and in Smith Carolina and Georgia
particularly the whole subject is in utter eunlnsion
The wretched condition ot the credit of these State.- is
not a matter of wonder; in fact, that they have any
credit remaining at all must be due to a laith in tliei'r
magnificent resources, hitherto untouched, and in a
better future which surely is coming for them.
The history of these unfortunate Commonwealths
since the organization of the carpet-bag governments
will prove to be a record of mean and infamous rob
bery which the world will read in sorrow and disgust.
A rule imposed by the bayonet—whether unnecessary
or not is not the point here—presented such an oppor
tunity for undisturbed pillage as was not to come
again, and it has been fully improved. Being until
recently unrepresented in Congress, these States had
no redress against their provisional government*,
which have plundered instead of protecting. The
convincing proof of this—if all others were warning—
might be found in the monstrous inciease of debt
piled upon the States: and this increase bears the
stamp of fraud upon it by its secret, irregular and
evasive character. Instead of actually seeing to it
that these States were governed by some degree of
honesty and ability, if it were not advisable to admit
their representatives to seats again, Congress has been
spending lime npon sundry sorts of special legislation
better left undone altogether. The reconstruction of
the States has been destruction, so far as its power
could go; and it will remain a deep and lasting dis
grace upon the nation that it could do nothing, or at
least, did nothing, better for these conquered States
whose people were disposed to accept the situation in
good faith, than to leave them for a season to be the
prey of viler harpies than Virgil wrote of. The Con
stitution expressly declares that Congress shall guar
antee to each of the States a Republican form of gov
ernment; but by some ingeuuity of construction it
was held that these States had committed political
suicide, and no longer existed as States, but as lauds
belonging to the nation. Even upon that theory they
have been treated worse than Territories are treated,
not even being allowed the right to be beard by dele
gates on the floor of Congress. They have virtually
b-en made satrapies, turned over to the few men who
have been allowed, by political movements, to tiud
opportunities in them.

We learn with regret that the house of our friend
Mr. Oliver White, was burned on last Monday week.
The fire was entirely accidental. He lo9t all of his
furniture and nearly all the clothing of his family.
Scarcely anything was saved. In the house was a li
brary of 2,UU0 volumes; many rare and valuable
books. This house was one ot the venerable thing* of
the olden times. It was built by his grand lather, Major
White, some seventy years since, just about the time
the Indians left that part of the country. The hurri
canes which were at that time prevalent and danger
ous induced such a form as would best resist them. It
was low but wido, with, massive, antique chimneys'
and all of the timbers of great size and strength. In
those times cut nails were unknown, and there were
no saw mills in that region; so the planks and lumber
were sawed cut by hand and the nails were all wrought
on the Blacksmith anvil. It was painted a bright
yellow color, with red doors and shutters, and in those
days of log houses waa considered the most splendid
residence in Jones county. It stood the hurricanes
end the wear and tear of 70 years -, but one spark ot
fire the other day has ended it forever. In its palmy
days it was well known for its oonvivality and hospi
tality. The old Major was an officer of the Regular
Army of the Revolution, and made it a rule to duly
celebrate, with his neighbors, all the battles of the
war in which lie was engaged. He had on the place a
emailfoUr pound cannon, which was need to fire the
salute on sucli occasions, and whenever the cannon was
fired it was a signal and invitation to the neighbors to
come and eat barbacue and drink rnm. On one occa
sion (the anniversary of Yorktown) a large company
of ladies and gentlemen had assembled—so many that
i: was Dccessary to set the table out of doors- His
Chief of Artillery, an old African named Quacco, who
Lad formerly belonged to Captain Sibley, of the Eng.
Mi Army, thought it well to honor the company with
a special salute. So he dismounted the four-pounder
and placed it under the table—the cloth coming down
to the ground covered both—the venerable oonnty
preacher after the guests had seated themselves said
pace,in which Washington,Liberty, the S^r Spangled
banner, and the American Eagle were duly embodied.
When the ‘amen’ was said the Artillery Chief, old
Quacco, fired the cannon under the table. The alarm
and consternation of the guests can be imagined. Half
of the table and seats were turned over in the alarm,
and with it went the barbacue, and out of the smoke
emerged the Chief of Artillery. The old Major, in
place of displeasure greeted it as a great joke exclaim
ing “ Charge again boys, and let’s all take a drink to
Captain Quacco-”

ty We are gratified to see frequent mention of the
fine business qualities of young men raised in our town
who have gone to our commercial metropolis, and
elsewhere. Among those who went to Savannah we
mention with pride, W. A. Williams, John Hammond,
W. S.& J. D. Stetson, J. L. Johnson and R. N- Stubbs.
The latter, poor fellow ! died there some time since
when he was winning for liimsolf an enviable reputa
tion as a young man of promise and extra business
qualifications.
These reflections are brought about by reading in
the Savannah News the following account of a big
day’s work accomplished by our iormer townsman,
Willie Williams:
A Good Day's Work.—The large sale of cotton,
which we noticed in our columns some days sinoe,

The arrival in Ibis country of the Japaoese Em
bassy, is regarded by the government as a most
gratifying indication of tbe estimation iu which
this country is held by the Japanese. The United
S'-atcs being the first nation that has been honored
with an ambassodor of fall rank, the highest dig
nitary that could be permitted to leave that coun
try, great results are augured frem this definite es
tablishment of diplomatic and commercial relations
between the two countries. The Embassy has al
ready been presented to to the President in a for
mal manner, and all the etiquette of diplomacy
seems to have been extended, fifty thousand dollars
lias been appropriated by Congress for their recep
tion, and, in addition, preparations are being made
to extend to them private and municipal courto
sies and attentions at the capital. A Herald's
correspondent relates wliat he terms a secret, il
lustrating the character of the Japs iu conductin
diplomatic matters, and explaining the facility
with which this government has been enabled to
cultivate more intimate relations with them than
any-olher nation has succeeded in doing. It was rep
resented to Commodore Perry, when the Japanese
went on board his vessel to sgree upon a commer
cial treaty, that none of tbe party could speak or
understand English. The negotialions were car
ried on in the most careful manner, and protracte I
as much as possible. Daring this time our offi
cers talked freely of the advantages which would
follow to both the United States aud Japan by the
opening of the ports of the latter to commence,
but not one word was spoken in the presence of
the Japanese of a trivial nature. Among the Japs
were a number who did understand English, aud
tbe srncerity of the remarks of the American offi
cers, overheard during tbs negotiations, were re
peated to the Japanese by the cunning listeners,
and so favorably impressed the parties entrusted
with the duty that it was communicated to the
Tycoon, who was fully satisfied with the honesty
of purpose on the part of the United States
their professed friendship. The treaty received
the royal sanction, and Japan was muled with us
in commercial amity. Since then we have stead
ily advanced, and to-day the United States is hon
ored with a visit from the greatest of the Japa
nese dignitaries that can leave his country, being
an Ambassador Extraordinary.
Political Proi , he , -xes.—"Leo,” the Wash
ington correspondent of the Charleston Courier
devotes the 4th of March to prophesying. He
says the next 4lh of March will be a remarkable
day. It will witness the inauguralion of a new
President, and that man will be Judge Davis —
Western Republican! Senators say he is the strong
est candidate the West can furnish, and will beat
Grant in Illinois. The new departure men do not
want ths Democrats to carry New Hampshire jnst
now, in fear that it will make tbe Democracy too
confident and predispose them against the support
of Judge Davis. The Cincinnati Convention will
be well attended, but it is now thought will ad
journ their nomination a month or two. He says
from all parts of the country assurances come
from leading and life-long Democrats that they
ill support the Liberal Republican nominee, aud
while tbe Democrats in Congress maintain pro
found reserve on the subject, the Grant Radicals
esnnot conceal their inquietude, He says there
will be bolting at the Grant Convention in Phila
delphia. So much for prophesies-—Tel. and Mess.
Will Grant be Bo-Nominatedf
Some Republicans do not yet believe that the Pres
ident will bo nominated for re-election, at Philadel
phia. They see, and freely admit that lie will be a
very weak candidate, that it places the Republican
party on the defensive, and will encourage and uuite
the opposition. The split in the Republican party,
which takes from it such men as Senator Seliurz, Ex
Secretary Cox. Gratz Brown, Judge Matthews, and
Judge Biukerhoff, is founded on principle, rather than
personal prejudice; but with some other candidate
than Grant, these might prefer to use their influence
in the old party, rather than to attempt to organize a
new one. The men who are conversant with the feel
ing of the public know that Grant is weak, where
snch a man as Blaine, or Trumbull, or even Colfax
would be strong, and they cannot b-lieve that the
party will be so blind to its own interest as to nomi
nate General Grant. That they are mistaken is evi
dent, we think.
It must be admitted that the delegates who have
already been elected, are unanimously in favor of
Grant’s nomination. The New Hampshire Republican
Convention did not instruct the delegates to vote for
Grant, if we recollect aright, but his endorsement of
the President was so hearty as to amount to about
tbe same thiog. The Connecticut delegates were
not instructed, but tbe chairman of the delega
tion is the most decided supporter the President has
in the State, and another is a Federal office-holder,
and these two will control the others, and cast the
vote of the State for Grant’s re-nomina’ion; aud there
is little prospect that the other New England States
will vote against him.
Look at the Middle States. Conkling controls the
Republican party in New York, and there is very little
rrospect that a hostile delegation can be elected so
ong as the Custom House patronage is dispensed by
Conkling and Murphy. Robeson is equally powerful
in New Jersey, aud has not Cameron ruled Pennsyl
vania for years? The Republican State Committee
in Ohio has adopted a resolution iu favor of Grant,
and the State Convention is called simply to ratity
the action of the committee.
Delegates have already been elected in Georgia,
where the State Committee chose themselves as dele-
jjii!,.*. ai.d then instructed themselves to vote for
Grant. I he Souths Carolina and Texas delegations
are unanimous for Grant. Iowa lias elected Grant
delegates, and so|lias Kansas. Louisiana may eiect an
opposing delegation, but that is the only State in the
South where there is the least doubt. Even if an op
position delegation should be elected in Louisiana, it
is doubtful whether they would be permitted to take
their seats.
Under the circumstances, what hope Is there that
Grant can be defeated at Philadelphia ? It can be
brought about in ODly one way. Two States are to
hold elections before the Philadelphia Convention
meets, and only two. Both are close States, ft the
aDti-Uraut Republicans in New Hampshire and Con
necticut neglect to vote, or better still, vote for the
Democratic candidates, wlio are admitted to be in
every way superior to their Republican opponents, it
is probable that we should have a change of pro
gramme. Give Mr. Weston a majority of two thous
and in New Hampshire, aud Mr, Hubbard from three
to five thousand majority iu Connecticut, aud there
will be a halt- But a meagre majority of a few Iran
died the Republicans will attempt to explaip a way.
If in addition to a majority on the popular vote, tlio
Democrats of New Hampshire and Connecticut should
be able to send two men to the United States Senate,
there would be such a panic in the Republican rauks
as might secure the nomination of one of their ablest
and purest statesmen. There is no hope for the Re
publican party exoept iu defeat.

the surface of the head with an invigorating ap

and stimulates them in the same way that the fer

the grass roots and cause the blades to spiing up
in myriads, coating tbe earth with verdure. The
invigorant best adapted to this purpose is Lyon's
KathairoX. It may well be called the fertilizer
of the head. To the barren scalp it communicates
vegetative power. If tbe hair is dropping out or
becoming dry and withered, it arrests the process
of dilapidation or blight. The hair thickens and
becomes glossy aud flexible under its genial oper
