Wash- biirne. of Illinois, tho present minuter to Spain, anil a member of the lowor House of Congress for sixteen year., ami in a leading editorial of the came issue nominate, him as its candidate for Con gress in 1876. In the same editorial the Commercial make, this prediction i The political aitnntiirti may be defined in a few aentencea. There havo been such Democratic victories this fall that the Democratic party is already in the field for the next Presidential campaign. Third party movement, trill be crowded aside. Our experience in Ohio six I certs ago settled tk it. The contest, therefore, will be a square one liotwoen tho Republican and Democratic] parties. Miss Waunku. of Highgate, Vermont, the girl who went to sleep on the Oth, and wasn't going to wake np till the Slat, ha. been interviewed, and she teem* to sleep on an entirely original plan. After two ilay. and night, of it, .he appeared to drum thnt alio wax a roceiring warehouse in the provision huainen, for she got up and ste,—didn't she eat) Tho lunch gave her the nightmare, evidently, for .he was rootless and would write detached words on a slate, such os: *' Pen and ink," " Do not force me to tako anything,” " God tells me, and you must do it,” “ It is not my natural food,” " I'm going to see the Angela,” "Coming back Nov. Slat.” etc. Those two day. were the longest time she has slept without that little lunch. Her countenance ie "smooth and placid.” pulse natural, respiration ditto. If her hand is lifted from the bed, it will remain where it is loft for a moment, then slowly settle to its original position. The man who interviewed her thinks tho cause of her slumber "a very obvious one," hut he doesn't choose to enlighten the public. Thb story of the religious triumph in Cuba, through which twenty of the <»n- demnsd filibusters, turned over at 8 a. v. to the priests, were turned over, con firmed Catholics, to the executioners at 4 r. a rate of eonTcncon equal, as the Diabop’a dispatch intimates, to 2) souls per hour—la a worthy companion piece to the story of the religious revival conducted in a certain Yankee brig ade during the war by a chaplain of more tb»n forty-parson power. Having revived several of the regiments, ho called one morning on a New York Colonel. “Colo- nek” said the enthusiastic dervish, "I want to speak to your regiment. I havo had gnace with other regiments, to con vert many. There is that Hoosior regi ment on tho hill ^rounder; I 1-aptised twenty-seven of them only last Sunday.” "Stop.” said Colonel K. "How many men do you tell mo you baptised there. Chap lain f" "Twenty-rer-o men, Colonel.” "Adjutant E.” said the Colonel, turning abruptly to that officer, "detail fifty men for instant baptism. I'll be — if this regiment shall be outdone, while I com mand it, by a Hoosior regiment, or any other in the service!” Tho Wonder* ol Telegraphy To get in Georgia on the 4th of Decem ber, the comments of the Loodon Frees oe a President’s message delivered at home on the 2nd, ie one of the miracles of the age. It involved the transmission of the long document under the wide waste of waters—then by overland to London—its reprinting by the press on the morning of the Sd, together with edi torial reviews of it, and the transmission of the Htter by the same route back to New York and to Georgia. In the lights of the simple processes by Which Rich result, are effected they are, it it true, no matter of wonder at the present day, but twenty year* ago they would have been pronounced impossible by any natural agencies. And if we • re flect upon such achievement now, we ■hall better realise what extraordinary changes it portends in the condition of the world. London is now, for the pur ports of mental inter-communication much nearer to New York and Washing ton, than Baltimore was when many of us were children. And. in a few yean, distanoe as a barrier to intellectual com munication all over tho globe will he practically annihilated, and human thought and opinion circulate as freely and as rapidly round the circle of the earth as tne blood does in the human, system. It require, study to appreciate the in fluence of this great fact in assimilat ing human opinions - correcting error.— dimiparing prejudices — softening ani mosities—inspiring sympathies—and, in fine, bringing to the use and benefit of all mankind the intelligence, information and civilisation of the more improved races and com muni tic*. We begin to ace the effect of this electric chain of eommnnication already in the rapid dis appearance of Oriental isolation and non- intercourre, and the adoption of Western ideas and improvement, by half the hu man race who two decade, ago were totally ignorant of and hostile to Euro pean civilisation. We may ray with truth in reference to this groat modern enginery of thought, that it directi the opinion of the world against peculiar institution., usages and dogmas like tho concentrated fire of a tremendous battery of artillery, with over- whelming effect, to that whatever local offends the general .enm of propriety and fitness goo* down before it. In re spect to question, of morals and religion., philosophical anil scientific truth, it is fast making but ono community of tho world, and overleaping tho boundaries of great km and mountain* anil desert., in spire. common thoughts, sympathies, in terests and affe-tions all over the globe. Who can say ho is a stranger in any respect to a place from which lie gets daily information before breakfast ? When ho read, of their trade, their legis lation, pnblie mootings, apeeehes, acci dents by fire and flood—their misfor tunes, sorrows and rejoicings a groat deal sooner than he will ordinarily bear of tho health or sickness of a neighbor living ten miles away ? Their distances may bo computed by thousands of miles, hut practically for purposes of thought, intelligence and sympathy, they are at the next door, and who shall limit the practical results of this grand and swiftly augmenting agency on tho future history of tho world? The Convention of Southern Grangers at Atlanta. The proceedings of this body, which wo consider of far more practical value to the South than tho President's mes sage, were printed simultaneously ’with that document on Wodnesday of this week. From a member wo learn tliat-250 del egates were in attendanoo, and notwith standing tho prediction mado by one of the newspapers, that " the concern would be run by lawyers and preachers, not more than a half-dozen members each, of those professions were present. It is impossible to disguise the fact that tho Convention was composed, to a great extent, of the very best and purest citixcns and producers of the country. There were men there who would Ulus trate tlieir States in the Halls of Congress or tlio Executive chair. Others, again, who hold high rank in scientific circles, and whose opinions were entitled to groat weight in any assemblage. Skillful plant- era of tho old regime, who ones dwelt in lordly style upon their baronial estates and counted their slaves by tho hnndrod, were to be seen, sido by side with tho sturdy and sun-embrowned farmer. In short, it was indeed a representative gathering of tho estates of the realm, and they did their work calmly, and wclL Those who assorted that the Conven tion would travel beyond its province and recommend measures at variance with law, and opposed to the established max ims of trade aud commerce, were wofully disappointed. There was nothing revo lutionary proposed; not a scintilla of violence crept into its proceedings; not a solitary motion or resolution was pressed, which contravened any right or privilege of the humblest citixcn. Wisely, and with steadfast purpose, that peaceful assembly of patriots l>ont its en ergies to the true interest, of the country, and the development of its material re sources. Tho snicidal policy of planting cotton to the neglect of the supply of grain and meat, was combated, and practical meas ures taken to abate the evil. The sacred character of all just debts and obligations were reiterated—the injustice of pro tracted patents for inventions of general utility denounced—the assistance of Con gress earnestly invoked in the speedy construction of that great internal artery of commerce, the Atlantic and Great Western Canal—the cash system recom mended, and the appointment of State chemists for the intelligent survey of our mineral lands, and to protect the plant er. from spurious fertilizers—our mem ber. of Congress urged to advocate the return of the iniquitous cotton tax—the prerent onerous and unjust protective tariff condemned, and iniatory steps tak*n, looking to the establishment of di rect trade in cotton and other products with the marts of Europe. These were some of the measure, con sidered and adopted, and who will gain- ray their wisdom, and the incalculable benefits to be derived from them in prac tice? The Granger* though wielding an im mense power in their own organisation, very properly kept entirely aloof from pflieif. Pursuing the policy laid down at Atlanta, their ability to do good will only be measured by the population and In the matter too, of refusing to appoint any special organ from the press, they crineed their good sense in an eminent degree. So long as this great movement of tho people ad here* to it* legitimate alms and purpose*, as forth in the recent convention, every neu rj 'j er in the land ,-hould, and will sustain it- Why then belittle itself, by constituting a single journal par er- ceUence as a mouth piece? protecting it.

The earnest attention of the reading public ia invited to' the very comprehen- live and satisfactory exhibit of thia com pany, as contained in its advertisement to-day. Tried by every test, whether of the most rigid inquiry and investigation into all of its business details.and trannetioax; by the nunfber of its risks and the character of its policies; by the probity and tact of iti managers, or the unexampled suc cess of its operations, it stands forth with out a superior in the country. North or South. • In addition, also, to the usual life poli cies, the Piedmont and Arlington have made arrangements with the Widow, and Orphans Friendly Society, of New Jersey, to provide for its policy holders during seasons of sickness and disability. The capital of this association is $25,000, and it is established upon the safest and most permanent basis. In connection with the life assurance a stip ulated sum is guaranteed for every week’s sickness of the policy holder, with a handsome provision likewise in the event of the loss of sight, or any limb, from accident or disease. Temporary aid is also granted to the poor for burial expenses, to be deducted after wards from the policy. Thus any party twenty-one year* old, by the payment of $2 33 per month may secure a life policy for $1,000, and receive in addition, eight dollars per week in all seasons of itinera. The advantage, thus afforded to the indigent laborer, are in deed inestimable. It is literally provid ing for the " rainy dayfor the hour* of aicknes. and distress, when honest in dustry. with the best intentions, can achieve nettling from physical weakni Thia is indeed a most salutary and at tractive feature in the new achedule of the Piedmont and Arlington, and will tend vastly to increase its popularity and usefulness. In the person of the General State Agent also. Dr. T. Stanley Beckwith, a brother of the Bishop of this diocese, our people have tho best possible assurance that they will be honorably and fairly dealt with. Dr. B. is a native of Virginia and a gentleman universally esteemed and respected. In his bands, without any spocial effort, tho business of the Company has signally prospered; nod wherever ho is known, all canvassing is superfluous. Those who wish to moke reliable and timely provision for depend ant families, will seek him without solici tation a. the representative of tho Pied mont and Arlington. His nilvcrtifcincnt therefore, is mainly designed to reach parties at remote points, with whom he will lie happy to correspond and impart evexy information needed in the premises. This is the caustic way James Paxton lecture* on the church taxation question t Some of the churches are luxuries, and all luxuries should b# taxed. The costly asrrioes of Trinity Church are a luxury, without which ths attendance would have remained as it was a few yean ago, when " it would have been possible to have fired a pistol from one end to ths other without hitting a Christian." Service* that oost $1,000 every Sunday should not be degraded by being put on the tree list, leaving the burden to be borne by other, who disagreed with them.

The Courier Journal introducing CoL Benjamin H. Bristow, before his appoint ment, m the coming Attorney General of the United States, to succeed Williams, appointed Chief Justice, speaks very highly of him. Tho Journal says he is a nativo of Kentucky and at present a resi dent of Louisville. He lived in Hopkins ville up to tho breaking out of tho war, and at its conclusion commenced the practice of law in this city. Shortly af terword* he was appointed District At torney of" Kentucky, and fulfilled the du ties of that position with such signal ability, that, some years since, tho Presi dent called him to Washington as the icial legal adviser of tho Government, ie astute Ackerman was at that time Attorney General, and there was doubt less a reason why it was not advisable to have him vacate that position. Howbeit, a new and spocial office was created for CoL Bristow, and ho became the Solicitor General of tho Government—an office which, we believe, has lapsed his since re signation. The high talents and extensive legal acquirements which had marked Col. Bristow asone of foremost lawyers of this State soon mado for him a very en viable reputation at the National capital. He was recognized as the legal authority of the Government; Ackerman served only as a figure-head. It wa* about a year ago, we believe, that General Bris tow offered his resignation, which, after great reluctance, was accepted by the President He resigned to accept a very honorable and lucrative position connect ed with the Southern Pacific railroad, which he yet holds. Some months since Gen. Bristow re turned to this city from Philadelphia, and is now, with hi* family, domiciled at the. Galt House. Ho is building a very handsome residence on Broadway, which he xrill bo loth to leave, even to accept a seat in tho Cabinet. The new dignity, however, will not add to tho estimation in which Gen. Bristow is held by his friends and admirer* in this city and State. It lias been remarked by a gen tleman who lias been most intimately as sociated with him, “ That to be in Gen. Bristow’s presence is to instinctively rec ognise that one is brought in contact with a great man." He is doubtless the most popular man in his party in this section, and the appointment will give entire satisfaction to the Republicans of Kentucky and the South. General Bristow is of a very striking and handsome presence, a man of cul ture and a thorough gentleman. He is genial in hi* manners, a firm friend and [those who know him best say] a pretty good enemy. Ho will dignify and ele vate the offioo which he is called upon to fill, and will bring into the social life of the national capital personal and family relations which will adorn that society. We are not informed whether ho will accept the position tendered him, but the President, mindful of his past services in the Cabicnt. will doubtless bring to bear upon his resolution a pressure which he will find it hard to withstand.

Wo will answer it. The assem blage of scalawags, carpet-baggers, jail birds nml political adventurers which met in Atlanta in 1868, anticipated and provided against any such'action. They declared that the Constitution which they framed should not be altered or amended except by a tiro-thirds rote of two succes sive Legislatures. An instilment adopted by a majority of the people at one elec tion can only be changed by a two-thirds vote of the representatives of the people in two successive elections. Let the Legislature submit the question to a vote, and the people—the sovereigns of the State—will decide whether or not they wish another Convention held, and a new Constitution framed. The same paper says: One op the Victims op the Yille du Havbe Disaster.—Mis# Lallic Bulkley, one of the lost passenger* of the ill-fated steamer Villo du Havre, was a grand daughter of Mrs. John M. Adams and a neice of Mrs. Joseph Ganahl and Mrs. George McWhorter, of this city. She was a lovely and accomplished young lady, and possessed those sterling attri butes of heart and character which never foil to make their possessor beloved. Miss Bulkley was just entering her twenty-first year, and thus passed away in all the bloom of youth and beauty. Her relations in this city are deeply shocked by tho terrible occurrence, the news of which reached them with such startling suddenness. But a few months since she was in Augusta, the life and centre of a circle of friends, and it seems hard for them to realize that ehe is now resting in the remorseless waters of the ocean. A dispatch was received in this city yesterday from Mrs. Bulkley, the mother of the unfortunate young lady, her only child, stating that the two were together when the ship went down, but that they became separated in the seeth ing waters and she alone was picked np. Two attempts were made last Monday night, says the Augusta Constitutional ist, to throw the up passenger train on the Georgia Railroad, off the track, near the 140th mile post. In one case ono iron rail was placed across the track, and in the other two rails were used. The air brake saved tho train both times.

Says he came from Ohio.” With inch an extraordinary nose, we don't see hew he can escape arrest A man with a talking proboscis can’t hide very long. Birth of a new Church. A New York telegram, of December 2, to the Western Press, rays: A meeting of clergymen and othera was held toJaj in Association Hall, in response to a call issued by Bishop Cum mins, to organize a church based upon the principles of the prayer-book of 17S5. Among the clergymen present were Dev. DrTcheny, of Illinois, and Eer. Dr. Prime. A declaration of principles was adopted, organizing those present into " The Re formed Episcopal Church,” and adopting the prayer-book of 17S5. The pith of the declaration lies in the fourth article, as follows : " This church condemns and rejects the following erroneous and strange doc trines as contrary to God’s words: "1. That the Church of Christ exists only in one order or form of eedesiasti- eal’policy. "2. That Christian ministers are priests in any other aense than that in which all believers are a royal priesthood. "3. That the Lord’s table is an altar on which an oblation of the body and blood of Chrirt is offered anew to the Father. “4. That tie presence of Christ in the Lord'* Supper is a presence in the ele ments of bread and wine. “5. That regeneration is inseparably connected with baptism.” The body was then organized a-- the Tlie King of Cuba. Mr. Gallenega, a correspondent of the London Times, who inspected Cuba and the Cabans for that journal about a year ago, rays that the power behind - the Captain-General of Cabs, and really over shadowing him, ia a Spanish millionaire, one' Don Julian de Zulneti, whore charac ter and posit ion are thus explained: Don Julian is a most remarkable man in every way. He is the son of a laborer in t ie Basque provii e is. - He landed in Cuba penniless, and now the aggregate of his, wealth of all kind* is enormous. He i*j the owner of four great sugar es- tates.-each of them valued at JS300.000, besides many smaller ones. : He has a great mercantile establishment, in. Ha vana, is a chief shareholder in the princi pal joint-stock undertakings, and has plactil money out on interest everywhere. His influence is almost omnipotent. Mr. Gallenga assures us that he controls.the municipality, the Chamber of Commerce, the bank, the Exchange, the hospitals, while, M we said, the Captain-General dare take no step of importance without his approval or assent. How that comes about is easily ex plained. Don Julian is not only at once the richest and the most resolute man, in the island, but he is the chosen represen tative of tho system that has made the island bo rich and of the ruling caste, who hare strength, courage, and military force on their side. The whites are di vided into two great classes, the Penin- subtree or native born Spanish immi grants, and the Creoles, or native Cubans. The Peninsulares flourish by slavery, look upon Cuba as a mere place to moke money In, and without the profits of slave-grown produce it would not be worth their while to remain in the West Indies. They used to act with the gov ernment and tako their orders from the Captain General, so long os there was no talk of emancipation and the government u content to share the profits of slavery. Now that the Government lias commit ted itself to abolition they act for them selves and their own interests, and take their orders from Don Julian do Zulueta. The machinery at his disposal is very formidable. In Havana and each of the other cities there is a "Spanish Club,” where the local heads of the party hold their consultations and whence they issue their orders. The rank ahd file are all enrolled in volunteer battalions, where they are fairly drilled and well armed. These volunteers ore said to number some 60,000 men. and there is no other force that can make head against them. They are prompt to act on occasion, and as their ardor is quickened by the liveliest self-interest it needs rather to be repress ed than stimulated. If they have been comparatively passive of late, except when actually in the field against tho in surgents, it is only because tlieir ene mies are thoroughly cowed in tho mean time. It was the volunteer corps of Ha vana who compelled that horrible judicial massacre of the creole students charged with outraging tombs in tho cemetery; and that and similar atrocities have es tablished a lasting terror. But they make no secret of their intention of wag ing a war to tho knife should circum stances render it desirable, nor do they hesitate to avow their conviction that they are strong enough to exterminate the creoles and blacks.” BY TELEGRAPH. BAY BISPATCHES. The London Tress on the Message London, December 4.—The limes, in a leader on the President’s message, says the excessive privileges in regard to free dom from search claimed for vessels bearing the American flag would confer immunity on an open pirate. Such pre tensions are, indeed, short-sighted- for a mercantile nation. '.- 1\ e cannot, for a moment, believe Con gress will adopt the suggestion to pro hibit the national bonks from paying in terest on deposits. We do not agree with the President'* financial remarks generally, and think he is" wrong in attributing the recent trouble to the peculiar character of the currency. The advice to return to specie pay ments would bo more satisfactory if the President told the country how to do it. The article praises the message for the moderation of its tone, in general, and on tho Cuban question in particular. England will unreservedly support a pol icy which requires that Spain must really, as well as nominally, control Cuba. The Daily News says the President’s language concerning tho Virginius affair is moderate and dignified. The Daily Telegraph sees in the de mand for the abolition of slavery in Cuba a menace which will greatly in crease tho difficulties of Csstelar's situa tion. The Standard thinks the only result threats against Spain will have will be to hinder an adjustment. Congressional. Washinotox, December 4.—The Sen ate Committee on Elections, before which the case of Gen. McMillan and Pinchback comes, consists of Morton, Carpenter, Logan, Alcorn, Anthony, Sumner, Mitch ell, Hamilton and Saulshury. The last two are Democrats. Tho Radicals ex press great confidence that Pinchback will be seated. The others don't think so, nnlcss after long delay and elaborate discussion. Senator West has been placed on the Committee on Transporta tion. In the House a committee of seven was ordered on the back-pay and salary. A dozen bills were introduced, to be referred to the committee when named. Tho Epizooty. A Herald editor who has been inter viewing ono of tho leading veterinary surgeons of New York upon the reap pearance of the epizooty in that city, got the following from him: I havo no doubt that with all things equal wo shall see this year a repetition of tho scenes of last among the horses, and very likely when the first cold weath er of the season begins each year the dis ease many appear in its old form. Wo have tho advantage of knowing some thing more about it than we did at first, and almost all veterinary surgeons here know how bost to deal with it. But un der the most favorable circumstances the disease is ono which takc3 much longer to extirpate than it does to come, and valuable time must be lost by the ap pearance of the disease. • There is no doubt that what is known os the epizooty is simply a very severe form of cold which attacks the bronchial tubes and causes them to inflamo to such a degree that respiration often becomes impossible. This is accompanied by a species of run ning catarrh which weakens the animal, and by withdrawing tho best juices of the body causes the body to bocomo weak and emaciated in a very short spoco of time. By the application of remedies the disease, if taken in time, may be made to yield and the horse may be put in a con dition to work once more. But I have much doubt if the disease ever completely extirpated from the system of tho horse and upons light prov ocation, such as standing in the cold while perspiring, or not being housed sufficiently warm, tho malady may ap pear with all its first vigor, and the ani mal will begin to droop and fall away as before, subject to tho same remedies if " has not taken too fast a hold already. have been led to Say this by tho fact that I have noticed that all thaso horses which suffered most severely last season havo had more or less running from the nostrils ever since, and would no doubt bo ready to yield to tho distemper directly it set in again with any virulence. The cough has also remained more or less, and every now and ’then you may hear it in the streets. It is the old disease which remains in every case. Of course, the warm months of the summer were antagonistic to the disease, and there is never any danger of its be coming widespread during that season. But winter retting in the danger comes back, and must be obviated os best we can do it. I believe that the spread of the disease will depend very much upon the weather of tho next few days. If the weather remains hard, clear and dry os it at present, I havo no doubt that wc shall escape without any severe attack of the malady. But in case there should be any sudden change the disease will break out very badly, and we shall very likely have the worst scenes of last year re peated, and, very likely, with a3 much violence. But better it should come now than later in the season, when the snow impedes travel and makes the work of the horses two-fold. It is not likely, however, that we shall have many deaths from the disease, for, as I said before, it will not take us by surprise as it did last year, and we shall better know how to treat it. The Puns Ststem of Advebtisino. The New York correspondent of the Min neapolis Tribune says that Lorillard’s method of advertising their chewing to bacco by patting money in the packages has not proved effective; that ths firm expended sixty-five thousand dollars in all, and one of the proprietors acknowl edged to the correspondent that the same amount expended in legitimate newspa'- per advertising would have paid far bet- The Ticar of St. James Church, Net ting Hill, lately preached a sermon on Death.” The effect was so great that several ladies, overcome with terror, were carried out of the church, and the excite ment grew so intense at last that the ser vice had to be stopped before the sermon finished.

Pierce’s Golden Medical Discovery earnestly, to correct the blood and system, which are always at fault, also to act specifically, as it does, upon the diseased glands and lining mem brane of the nose and its communicating chambers. The more I see of this odious disease, the more positive is my belief that if we would make treatment perfectly successful in curing it, we must use.consti- tutional treatment to act through the blood, as well as a soothing and healing local application. Dr. Sage's Catarrh Remedy, when used warm and ajiplied with Dr. Pierce’s Nasal Douche, effects cures upon “common sense,” rational and principles, by.its mild, Soothing and healing properties, to which the dis ease gradually yields, when the system bn. been put in perfect order by the use of Golden Medical Discovery, This is the only perfectly safe, scientific and success ful mode of acting upon and healing it.
