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 and profusely illustrated Bibles, photo graph albums and playing cards, and makes no return whatever. He pockets the remittances, which according to the Department’s special agent number about 150 daily front all parts of the United States and Canada. Some of liis dupes respond to liis tempting offers with remit tances as large as four or five dollars. 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 in Chicago a few days ago. Upon being ; brought here this morning, he made a! confession of the robbery, and being ar- ! raigned before the court Wall plead guilty | anil was remanded to prison in default of $10,000 bail. His trial will take place at. an early date. The Southern Express , officials, for the past eleven years, have made continued and persistent efforts to secure Wall’s arrest, but they were un-. successful until a few days ago. After the robberv, Wall went to Texas, thence ■ to Xew York, where he married under 1 the alias of Robert Smith, and finally | settled down in Chicago. Johnny Davenport New Tore, December 20.—John J. Davenport this njoming filed with Lmted States Commissioner Duel his answer to the new charge 'made against h)W 13 su pervisor of elections. lie denied, as su pervisor, that'h«».xaused two thousand, complaints against -voters to be made in ■ 1873, but admits three hundred persons : were arrested on warrants issued by him ; as United States Commissioner, and I ejaims that the tact cannot be alleged} again claim ,-inst him as election officer. He also aims that the complaints made were quite sufficient to warrant his action, which was legal. The taking of naturali zation papers away from holders is also denied. ' - =■ . --- A TENNESSEE FARMER. Pen Picture of One Solid .Man in the 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. J. P.

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 leans Times. 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.
