The Postal Office Black List
Washington, December 20. — The
Post-office Department to-day added to
its black list of persons and firms to wlioat
either tlie delivery of registered letters or
payment of money orders is forbidden,
the names of Martinez & Co.,,, agents of
the Royal Havana Lottery; Emile Cos
tello, agent of the Spanish Government
Lottery; Keppick & Co., and John Dray
ton, alias R. Field & Co, representing va
rious American lotteries. All of tlie above
transact business in Xew York city.
The Department lias also placed on its
black list the names of A. B. Clinton, alias
A. B. Coe & Co., of Xew Haven, Connec
ticut, and J. C. Boccniidcs, West End,
Connecticut. The latter has been do
ing a very heavy swindling business under
thirteen different aliases, such as tlie
Franklin Publishing Company, Ray
Printing Company, etc. He advertises
that he will send for fifty-four cents each
a variety of valuable articles, including
standard dictionaries, handsomely bound

Sir Stafford's Northcote's Speech.
London, December 20.—Sir Stafford
Xortlicotc, Chancellor of the Exchequer,
delivered an address to-day at the great
Conservative demonstration at Leed’s.
He made a detailed reply to the recent
speech of members of the Liberal party,
and complained that Mr. Gladstone’s com-
arison of tlie expenditures of the
iberal and Conservative governments
was fallacious, as lie made no allowance
for the extraordinary war expenditures
necessitated by the Eastern complications.
He assured his audience that the gov
ernment were concealing nothing relative
to the situation in Afghanistan. The
government, lie said, would take means
to alleviate tlie distress in Ireland with
out pauperizing the population, but while
careful of the material prosperity of Ire
land, he would, above all, insist upon the
maintenance of law and order, and would
never coquctt with any demands for home
rule, which tlie responsible statesmen of
all parties knew to be impossible.
The tone of Mr. John Bright’s recent
speech at the Potter banquet, he said, was
remarkably bright and had gone as near
as possible to recommending a republic in
England and comparing the United
States to the British Empire, ho had point
ed out that tlie wide extent of the latter
was merely the cause of weakness. The
chancellor asserted that the policy of tlie
fpxrenuiiclit In ATgllftnlstan xm one of do-
fenso, not of annexation. They still ad
hered to the policy set forth in the treaty
of Gandamuk, but wished Afghanistan to
receive a government suitable to its popu
lation so that the country might form a
barrier between India and any power that
might encroach upon it.
Aid for Ireland Asked.
London, December 20.—The Duchess
of Marlborough lias written to the Lord
Mayor of London asking for aid to induce
the wealthy citizens of London to contri
bute to the relief of the starving poor in
Ireland. She expresses the fear that the
distress will be terrible unless private be
nevolence comes to the assistance of the
sufferers. Tlie Lord Mayor has announc
ed his readiness to co-operate with the
Duchess of Marlborough.
A Iteuter dispatch from Koine says tlie
Vatican lias authorized the Papal Nuncio
at Vienna to receive the proposals made
on behalf of the German government for
the settlement of minor questions, so as
to establish a modus ticendi pending tlie
settlement of larger questions. It is_ as
serted that Monsgr. Jacobine, Papal Nun
cio. will again visit Prince Bismarcl;.
Calcutta, December 20.—The gov
ernment of India has published an expla
nation af the military situation in Afghans
istan, stating that General Robert-
had ample transport and ammunition, be
sides twenty-three cannons belonging to
his force. He had 214 captured cannon,
many of which were rifles. His retrench
ment can easily be held by by 3*500 men,
leaving 6,000 free for offensive operations.
General Bright has 12,000 men between
Jumorod and Jagdallak with thirty can
non, two months’ supplies and a complete
divisional and brigade transports,including
tlie force at Candahar and in the Kiirum
Malley. The total field force is 45,000
men with 160 guns, which is considered
ample for present requirements.
The Tichborne Claimant's Case.
London, December 20.—The Daily
Seas says: We understand that steps for
procuring a writ of error in the case of
Arthur Orton, the Tichborne claimant,
were taken by Lord Rivers and Mr.
Guilford Onslow, under the advice of Dr.
Kenealy, who applied for a similar writ in
1874, but it was then refused. It is stated
that the case will be taken to the House
of Lords for a final decision, and that Dr.
Koneal r will exercise his right as a
member of the Irish bar to appear for Or- I
ton before that tribunal.
From Atlanta.
Atlanta, December 20.—Governor!
Bishop of Ohio, accompanied by Presi- i
dent Clements of the Cincinnati Southern
railroad, A. H. Bucher, W. A. Gunn, J.,
W. Marble, E. P. Wilson and TomO’Con- ■
ner, were here to-day in the interest of the !
Cincinnati Southern railroad. They were j
much pleased with their trip and feel sure :
of tlie success of the enterprise. The citi- I
zens of Atlanta paid them great attention :
and they were impressed with the fact
that Atlanta is the real Southern termi- j
mis of the road. The party returned to
Cincinnati this afternoon.
Caught and Plead Guilty.
New OELEAN3,December 20.—Thomas
Wall, alias Robert Smith, who robbed the
Southern Express Office in this cityof
$10,000, in December, 1S68, was arrested J

successful until a few days ago. After

to Xew York, where he married under 1
the alias of Robert Smith, and finally |
settled down in Chicago.

A TENNESSEE FARMER.

Solid South.
Pnlaiki{T«ao.),Comss»01enc3 of the Cincin
nati Commercial, j
Did you ever see him? He was coming
out of the door of the Giles National
Bank; he had just dumped a handiul of
the subsidiary into his vest pocket; he was
shoving a roll of hank notes into his pock
et-book; he wore no coat; his jeans panta
loons were flecked with cotton; so was his
wool hat; he had just sold three five hun
dred-pound bales, and had cashed the
clieck. Leaving the bank he went in the
western door of the court house. In a
few minutes he passed out of.. the door.
He was folding np his tax receipt
Did you hear him ? “Bill,” lie says, “I
have just paid my taxes. I don’t owe
nary man on top of dirt one cent.” He
had followed Johnston in the charge at
Shiloh; he was with Hood in his retreat
from Nashville; he had proved himself
a man of courage; lie was an affectionate
husband, a kind father. There was a
consciousness creeping over him that if
not bom a nobleman, he was to-day an
independent sovereign. He met his wife -
and daughter on tlie pavement. “What
did you get for cotton, husband?”
“$11.25, wa’nt that a good price?” “Yes,
we can live at that.’
She drew him to one side. “Husband,”
she says, “you have more cotton to sell
and pork to spare. Our Mary is now sev-
sntccn years old, the young men are com
ing to sec her; couldn’t you give her a seal
brown merino dress trimmed with silk?
Rudd will fit and baste it for a dollar, and
I can make it on the machine, and
go to Sirs. Graham’s and get her a $5 bon
net; she never had one, and Johnny
wants a pair of boots, and”—“Wife,” says
the farmer, “since the war we have had a
hard struggle to make a support. You
have done your part without grumbling or
complaining. Now my head is above
water; what’s mine is yours; there is tlie
pocket-book with tlie money. Use it in
any way you want to.”
•‘Yes,” she saysjwith a smile,'“you know
full well I will not abuse any confidence
you may repose in me.” She turned to
go to the store, he went to look after liis
team. Now just look at him! He is at
home, seated in front of a roaring log fire.
The black cook is getting his supper in
the kitchen. She pauses to smile over her
red calico dress and new calfskin shoes.
Johnny is strutting around with his boots
drawn over liis pantaloons. Mary is be
fore the glass trying on her new bonnet.
The baby is crowing and jumping in its
father’s lap.. The wife dropping on one
knee and placing one arm around her hus
band’s neck and the other around the
child’s, says, “kiss papa, baby.” As the
tiny lips approach the moustache she
couldn’t help pressing her own between.
It was a triangular arrangement, hut papa
got the most of it.
“Early to bed and early to rise” is his
custom. It is now 9 o’clock. Everything
is still and quiet around the fanner’s resi
dence, and the glittering stars bespangle
the frost-covered roof that shelters one of
the happiest families in the solid South.

An Important Personal Item.
Charles S. Prentice, of Toledo, O., went
to Paris and thence to England to he
treated for Bright’s disease, and after the
best physicians of both countries had done
what they could for him, gave up in des
pair and returned to America to die.
Here ho received further treatment from
skillful physicians without benefit, and
while “listlessly lingering in pain and
anguish,” as ho says, heard of the Safe
Kidney and Liver Cure, took it, and was
completely cured in a few weeks. He
gives circumstantial details of his painful
experience and astonishing cure in a long
letter to H. H. Warner & Co., which will
be lorwarded on application, dec 10-2w.
Seedless Oranges.
Seedless raisins have been long known,
but seedless oranges are something of a
novelty in this locality at least. We have
received a few beautiful specimens of this
peculiar and certainly very desirable va
riety of oranges from Major Austin W.
Roundtree. Their flavor is very delicate
and delicious, and it is claimed for them
that they keep much longer than any oth
er orange known. Most of them are en
tirely devoid of seed, and Major Round-
tree informs ns that it often happens that
there is not more than one seed found in
two or three hundred of this fruit. This
variety we procured originally from the
Imperial Botanical Garden at Rio Janei
ro, and was taken to Florida, where it
was found to thrive, and irom whence
the present trees on Major Rountree's
place, over the river opposite Carrolton,
were obtained. They have proved to ho
excellently well adapted to our climate,
and being very prolific we suspect they
will soon be largely substituted for tho va
rieties now raised by those who cultivate
this golden and luscious fruit.—New Or

Senator Hampton and the Grand
Army of the Republic.
Senator Wade Hampton, of South Car
olina, in his letter in response to an invi
tation from a committee of the Grand
Army of the Republic to deliver a lecture
in Pittsburg, Pennsylvania, writes as fol
lows:
Owing to the physical disability under
which I labor at present, I have been
forced to decline all invitations to deliver
public addresses; but the invitation you
extend is so cordial and so significant that
I shall try to make an exception in its
favor. It seems to me that no surer mode
to restore harmony between the two sec
tions of the country so lately contending
in arms can he found than to bring the
old soldiers of the two armies into friend
ly consultation. Brave men are apt to be
generous, and if those who once opposed
each other in battle could now meet as
citizens of a common country, actuated
by a desire of restoring harmony and cul
tivating peace among all classes, we should
soon see the bitter sectional feeling which
politicians are fostering for their own sel
fish ends at rest forever. Your invitation
has this end in view, as I understand it,
and I would gladly co-operate with you
in this laudable object. It will not be in
my power to deliver an address just now,
but I shall he happy to do so at some fu
ture time which will suit yon. I beg you
to express to the G. A. B. my high appre
ciation of the honor done me.
Macon's Progress.
The establishment of Macon as the
headquarters of a United States Judi
cial Circuit meets with great satisfaction
from the people. The lawyers are ’de
lighted. One improvement for the city,
which will come as a natural conse
quence, is the erection of a handsome
government building. This may not
come in a year or two, but will come in
time. The free delivery and the estab
lishment of a judicial circuit, of which
Macon is to be the centre, are two public
recognitions of Macon's advance in im
portance and her increasing trade, whole
sale and retail, the rapid improvements in
real property and steady rise in values
now going on, and show Macon to be on
the high road to even greater prosperity
than she now enjoys. The feeling among
holders of real estate is drfdedly better
than six months ago, while*the business
men of the city look forward to the future
