CALLED TO OLDER
U- President L. W. Hunt, of Macon.
MB. WALTEE A.. TATLOB,
of Atlanta, then delivered tho address of
welcome in behalf of the druggists of this
city and their visiting brethren. This
address was well written and admirably
delivered. Mr. Taylor reviewed tho vast
discoveries which have been made in
pharmacy in tho last hundred years; bow
iho efficacy of medicine was formerly
measured by tbo length of tbo bills and
tbo sixe of tbo dose, and not by the in
trinsic quality of the drug; that in no
country has tbo advance in this depart
ment of science been more marked than
in our own. Hardly sixty years have
pissed since the first collego of pharma
cy wsaestablished, and for a long timoits
life was sickly and its growth was almost
imperceptible, but the exigencies of tho
profession demanded an iueressoof sci
entific knowledge, and so at this time
there aro ten or twelve pharmaceutical
colleges proper, and in many medical col
leges this branch of scienco ia taught ns
part of the regular curriculum. Twenty-
■uTcn years ago tbo idoa was originated
by tho “N. Y. College of Pharmacy” to
caI! a convention of druggists for consid
eration of many grave ■uojdcto connected
with tho profession. From this sprang
the present associations m all parts of
the country, and, gentlemen, I may safely
aay that great has been tbo benefit which
has flowed to suffering humanity from
their deliberations. Gentlemen, we wel
come you to our city and her hospitali
ties.

resulted as follows:
President—R. H. Land, Augusta.

PRESIDENT HUNT
then delivered tho annual address of the
President. This productionwos one of the
best wo ever listened to. Tho doctor
reviewed the history of pharmacy ia an
able manner, tbo organization and oo-
jeots of tho present association of phar
macists in this State; also the necessity
of drawing up a certain bill to be pre
sented to tbo next aession of the Legis
lature on tho subject of poison, etc., tho
present laws on that point being in tbo
opinion of tho profession not only inade
quate but unwise; that this subject was

Dr. Cheatham deserves a higher praise
than we can give him for this most suc

and logic, and wreathed with tho choicest

FROM WASHINGTON.
Tbo Policy to bo Applied in Lou
isiana In a Few Days.
Washington, April 12.—Tho lull in
politics continues. AH waits on Louis
iana. It is believed at the White House
that the Commission will Bimply report
on the situation, without any recommen
dation. Tbo impression ia general in
high quarters that it will require a heavy
reinforcement of troop3 in Louisiana to
sustain Packard. The troops cannot bo
spared. The happy results following the
enforcement of the policy in South Caro
lina have greatly strengthened the ad
ministration, and the enforcement in
Louisiana is a question of a very few
days.

What Aro tho Facts?
Boston, April 12.—The New England
Methodist Conference adopted the fol
lowing: WiixnxAS, it has been reported
to us that William H. Scott, an aged and
highly respected member of the South
Carolina Conference, has been shot to
death without provocation, while peacea
bly leaving his church on tho close of an
evening service, and Whereas, we nat
urally and rightfully loot to our chief
ministers, at whose direction wo go toonr
fields, however perilous, to exert to the
utmost their great influence for our pro
tection and tbo maintainanco of our rights
and just reputation, bo it therefore, Re
wived, that wo respectfully request our
Presiding Bishop, Rev. R. L. Foster, to
inqniro into tho facts and circumstances
of this case, and if he finds them such as
they havo been reported here, to bring
them to tho notice of tho entire church
ia such a way as he may deem wise, that
it may take such action thereon as the
necessities of the case require.
The report was. briefly discussed and
adopted.
Tho St. Louis Fire.
St. Louis, April 12.—Tho numbar of
lives known to be lost is 11. It is feared
that 20 to 23 bodies may be found in the
sonrob, which will follow tho fall of tho
interior walla of tbo building.
Nows Items.
New Yolk, April 12.—The failure of
H. Kennedy A Co., yesterday caused an
excitement and dooline in stocks. Three
hundred and forty thousand shares of
different stock anil different kinds are in
volved, and mnch money lost. Tho firm
was worth Si,000,000. No other failures
aro reported.
Foreign Nows.
London, April 12.—A Renter dispatch
from Constantinople says the Tnrklsh
Senate ha3 not confirmed the Deputies’
rejection of Montenegro’s demand; but
decided to leave tho question to the gov
ernment.
Tbo Pott, speaking of the meaning of
the Turkish circular, says in a word, the
Ottoman government is prepared to face
tho peril of war rather than submit before
hand to terms which it oonsiders oonld
only be imposed upon a vanquished na
tion after great reverses in the field.
The Timet, in leading editorials, says
tho nows from Tarkey wonld be grave if
wo believod Russia eager to preoipitate
war; bnt, happily, (hero is no need to
draw snob n conclusion. Diplomacy has
not said its last word.
NIGHT DISPATCHES.
Nsw Orleans, April 12.—Tho races
werepoitpcned on account of the weather.
Nows Items.
Pcuebot, Ohio, April 12.—A fire, com
mencing at Greyer & Sons’ warehouse,
burned twenty-five business placer. Loss,
$1C0.000. The Masons lose $3,000 worth
of fixturee.

Panama, April 12.—Several crass of
yellow fever are reported &t Callao. It
is reported that Consol Clayton died
from it.
Foreign Nows.
London, April 12.—A Berlin dispatch
to the Timet states that the alarming
aspect of the situation apparent is not
real. Both parties are assiduous for
peace, but the Russians wish to derive
some benefit from the demobilization, by
representing that the Porte is acting un
der a pressure, and the Turks desire to
avoid even a semblaneo of submission.
Thus the Russians threaten war, and the
Turks flavor their concession of disarma
ment with an admixture cf independent
langaage.
Business on the Stock Exchange is
quieter to-day, but there is no recovery
in prices.
Sr. Petersburg, April 12.—The Jour-
no! de St. Peterslurg states that there is
no further hope that Turkey will accede
to the demands of Europe.
The Galot declares tue present ststs
of things are such as loive no hope of a
pacific eolation. Russian occupation
of tbs Christian provinces of Tarkey
would be a logical oonsequenoe of the
refasal of the Porte lo carry out tho de
mands of the protoool. Snoh occupation
wonld exclude all idea of ambitions de
signs attributed to Russia, who, by in
tervention in behalf of the Christians,
wonld solely pnrsne humanitarian ends.
Capital Notes.
Washington, April 12.—The Secre
tary of the Treasury has determined to
appoint a commission to investigate the
New York Custom House.

was a party to bargains made by the
district attorneys.
Tho Star says the advices from the
Lsuisiana Commission are rot encoura
ging for settling the difficulties existing
in the State. The statement is made
that supplementary instructions will be
given to the commission to meet the
difficulties that have arisen. It is also
stated that the President is willing to

which Packard is understood to havo
made against such action.
The Secretary or the Navy returns

of War most hospitable. Tho citizens
vied with each other to mako tho stay
agreeable. * - - ' i
It can bo stated on tbo best authority
that the President made no promises
whatever to Chamberlain as the condition
of his abdication.
Senator Patterson, in an interview with
the President yesterday, thought he bad
mtda a mistake in his oouras toward
Sanlh Carolina. Tho President replied
that it was an experiment, but from tho
representations received and pledges
mado by Hampton, and the subsequent
development, there was reason to believe
it wonld bo saccossfol.
Senator Patterson ia quoted, that ho
believes in the right of tho Legislature to
iustiuot, and, under instruction-, ho
should vote for tho admission of Butler,
and besides ho would vote for tho edmis-
Bion of Democratic Senators from Louisi
ana. This wonld interfero with his Re
publicanism, bnt bis action wonld be
based on tbo gronnd that a State ought
to bo lopresented according lo the wishes
of tho people, as represented in their
Stato government.
Mr. H. Haly, C. C. Adams and E. T.
Jenning3 havo been reinstated as special

Special dispatch to the News and Courier. I
Columbia, April 10.—The removal of
tho troops from the Stato House to-day
was accomplished so quietly and quickly
as to deprive the occasion of much of its
purely dramatic interest. In all save the
ono essential particular that they were
going ont never to return, tho evacua
tion differed very little from tho usual
Buperccssion of tbe guard which might
havo been witnessed any time during
these four months. Governor Hampton’s
published request, in furtherance of his
promiao to Hayes, that no Democrat
should go near the State House unless
authorized by him to do so, was carried
out to the letter. Not one was present at
the ceremony, and I saw none on tho cap
ital grounds, either before or after tha
performance.
Twenty minutes before 12 o’clock, your
correspondent, with two other mombers
of the press, presented themselves at the
front door, and entered unchallenged, al
though a score of the colored special con
stables wero hanging about iho entrance
watching onr movements with sullen, no
friendly glances. Within doors was i
confused crowd of perhaps one hundred
and fifty persons, mostly negroes, who
wero moving about aimlessly, or stand
ing in groups of thraes and fonts engaged
in low and dispirited oonveration. Here
and there were to be seen one or two
smaller groups cf white Republicans of
the better sort similarly occupied, aud
all looking badly demoralized, or, to use
n homely phrase, “docidedly down in the
mouth.”
Tho guard oa duly to day was a detaoh
ment of twenty men of Company B, Sec
ond Rsgiment, under command of Lieut.
Haynes. A11 necessary preparations for
the evaonation had been completed before
onr arrival on tho scene, and the men
fnlly aoooutred were resting in two ranks
and with their gumt stacked before the
door of the Comptroller-General’s office,
which has been used as officers’ quarters
daring the siego. A solitary sentry paoed
np and down oa his beat before the Ex
ecutive office. CJob Black and Adjt. Pot
ter stood under an arch, a few paces dis
tant, frequently referring to thetr watches,
Gen. Roger’s aide had arrived with the
orders during the morning, and Col,
Blaok was nervously intent n^on compil
ing with its preoiso instructions as to tho
hour of departure, to wit, precisely
twelve. His nervousness alTeoted his
subordinate offioots, from these it spread
to the crowd, and no second - was permit
ted to pass altogether unobserved in Us
flight.
At ten minntes before 12 Lieutenant
Haynes suddenly Bounded the order, “At
tention 1” which was generally observed
by the crowd throughout tho building, as
well as by tho handful of men to whom it
was move particularly addressed. Then
came in rapid succession, “Take arms,”
“unfli bayonets,” “carry arms,” “count
fours,” “twee right,” “maich!” The
Ia3t order brought tho squad eharply
down on tho crowd, which gave way to
allow a frao passage to tho door. Bat
tho timo was not yet up, and a sudden
halt was made as tho leading fiio roaohed
tho South ontranoc. The sentry on duty
before tbe Exeoutive office, now relievod
for the last time, resumed his plaoe in
the ranks, and the oommand, “Order
arms,” being given, the menstood at easo
in their places. The few remaining min
utes of tho ten seemed to loiter as they
passed.
Presently the sergeant, who had timed
his watch with the Oity Hall bell, which
in turn was set with the dock in tho tel
egraph office, which in tntn was regulated
from Washington by telegraph, whispers
to tho lientenant. “Ono minnte more,
sir,” and is directed to take his stand at
the South door, next to the Oity Hall, and
to give notice of tho first tap of the dcok
bell by a wave of his hand. Col. Blaok,
seeing the maccoavre, recalled tho ser
geant and sent Lieutenant Briggs, of the
same company, to take the post of warn
ing. The seconds aro minutes row, and
everybody ia listening for tho sound or
watohing for the signal. There it goes!
Lieutenant Briggs waves his hand to in
dicate the first tap, which was not henrd
in the recesses of the hall, and advances
rapidly to Colonel Black to report the
fact.
The Colonel says, “Don’t run, sir.'
The lieutenant joins the equad. Then is
heard, “Attention, guaid!” “Carry
arms! ’• “Bight shoulder arms!” “Twos
right, march.'” The sound of heavy and
harried footfalls resounds along the cor
ridors, and before the bell has reached
the fifth stroke of tbe twelve tho last file
has crossed the threshold. Numbers of
the negro constables, evidently acting
under peremptory and argent orders, in
stantly sprang to tbo heavy doors and
slammed them to with a baog, in the face
of tho orowd within, and in the imme
diate roar of the last file of soldiers with
out, who are hardly out of tho way of the
closing panels. A heavy bar dropped
into its brackets, and Iho military ccou
pation of tbe State is ended, much to tbo
relief of the citizens and tbo military as
weii.
AH was done so suddenly that the clock
could be heard striking after the doors
wero closed. The beU ctrikes slowly at
best, and it required little suggestion to
ovolve the comparison of a faneral knell.
Twelve strokes sounded, and the twelve
long, weary wretched years of carpet-bcg
misrale were tolled off ono by one, and
consigned to the tomb of the past forev
er, never to know a resurrection. The
crowd qaickly dispersed, almost in si
lence, and in a few minutes tho wires
were flashing tho tidings to every town
and village of the whole land. The de
tachment of soldiers were marched direct
to their quarters and dismissed, and so
ended the first lesson of tha eventful day.
Mr. Chamberlain’s action to-day was a
complete surprise to everybody outside
the small circle of his immediate friends
and associates, and could not have been
anticipated by any one not in hts confi
dence. It wes certainly known, upon
evidence contained in his own handwrit
ing, that so lately as Saturday night he
was faUy determined upon the policy cf
resistance, as set forth in the A T n« and
Courier and substantiated in advises to
Northern persons, here from correspon
dents at 'Washington.
To this policy his Bnpporters here con
sidered him firmly committed, and they
were prepared to sustain him in it He
had not in a single instance given tbe
slightest intimation of even the possibili
ty of a change in the coarse he had mark
ed ont and declared, and such possibility
has not been entertained for a moment
in the plans of Governor Hampton and
his friends, who have been busily enga
ged for several days devising the line of
attack to ba pursued in view of his as
sured purpose of resistance to tbe last le
gal extremity.
Tbe truth is simply that Mr. Chamber-
lain changed his mind within the pas (
twenty-four hours, and tha change, to
whatever Influence due, was kept so se
cret that it was not even suspected till
tha troops had actually departed from bis
office door, and he had made formal and
official announcement of his abandonment
of tho contest. I have heard no reason
suggested for his sudden revolution of
purpose, end havo no means of aaoertain-
Ang. He will probabiv make it known nt
bis own discretion. It may be remarked
j.ist here that whatever tho“reason for his
co urso, tbo fast of his yielding at this
