(Quitman %lc±wrtcr. JOS. TILLMAN, Editor. THURSDAY. OCTOBER 25, 1877. The Democrats all over the North are very much encouraged by the sweeping victory in Ohio. It is bo- j lie veil tnat Pennsylvania will follow suit. m i m _ There was a light frost in Lincoln j county last Sunday morning, which nipped vegetation in low places. This is earlier in the season than for several years past. In Arkansas the law makes the of fense of carrying concealed weapons a felony, punishable by imprisonment in the penitentiary. This should be the law in every State. The Baltimore Sun says myriads of wild ducks, from the summer watering places, have passed southward over Klkton, and the Susquehanna flats are covered with them. The Old Capital is giving its read ers correct pictures of the public buildings in Milledgeville, together with a history of the same—date of construction, improvements, &e. F. M. Coylo was committed to jail at Romo last Tuesday, as an accessory after the fact to the robbery of the post office at Harmony QfOve, Jack "Soh county, Ga., some weeks since. There was a grand display in At lanta last week, it being the occasion of the Georgia State Fair. The city was crowded with people during the week, and the Fair grounds sparkled with graco and beauty. Agricultural societies are springing up all over the State. The thriving little county of Ware is coming up, too. Some of its best citizens met and organized a society last week, and also appointed a delegation to attend the Thomasville Fair this week and make a report of their observations. The Cincinnati Enquirer, a Demo cratic pmper, says: Ohio has given in structions to Congress. Let Congress heed them. The earliest duties of Congress will be to pass bills repeal ing the resumption act and remone tizing silver. It would be eminently fit that some Democratic member of the House from Ohio should promptly introduce such a bill in that body. Will Senator Thurman perform a like duty in the Senate ? Radicalism is everywhere synony mous with rescality, extravagance and fraud. The Boston Post says: “Twenty years ago, on the acces sion of the Republican party to power in Massachusetts, the State had in its treasury a surplus of $1,790,000 above all its indebtedness; now there is a deficit of $15,071,000, or, in other words, the State is worse off than it was then by $17,461,000. The war loans account for but $7,500,000 of this amount. In these twenty years it has borrowed $40,000,000, and to day owes $33,500,000. An official statement in the New York Bulletin shows that, on the Gth inst., there was in the United States Treasury $81,500,000 of greenbacks and $11,200,000 of bank notes. Ou the 22d of June, there was in the na tional bank of the United States $78,- 000,000 of legal tenders and $20,000,- 000 of bank notes. Besides this, we may estimate that $25,000,000, at least, of greenbacks and bank curren cy are held by the State banks. From these figures, it would appear that about $210,000,000 of the two kinds of currency are resting in the Treas ury and held by the banks. Deduct ing this from the $671,000,000 of both kinds of notes outstanding, we have a balance of $455,000,000 of paper money in the hands of our 45,500,000 of population or exactly ten dollars per head. ♦ m The centre of population of the United States is said to have traveled westward, keeping curiously near the thirty-ninth parallel of latitude, never getting more than twenty miles north or two miles south of it. In eighty years it has traveled only four hun dred miles and is still found really fifty miles eastward of Cincinnati. 1 • The gin house of Mr. P. C. Moore, of Burke county, was burned on last Sunday night between twelve o’clock and daybreak. It was the work of an incendiary. There was no cotton destroyed, and no insurance upon the property. The gin house of Mr. William Hen derson, of Fulton county, was destroy ed by fire on Sunday last. This is the eighth, and it was tlio work of an incendiary. There was no cotton in the house, but it was filled with hay and fodder. - mm ♦ ■— ■— -- The Marietta (Ga.) Journal says that German millet is being used as rice in lower Georgia. The husks arc removed and the grain is palat able food. — ♦ If the President’s own stae refuses to support him what can he expect of other states? Forney has sold his Philadelphia Press for SIB,OOO and is going abroad. MATTERS IN WASHINGTON. The N(fission of Congress llaiidnll White House Nominations, mid tilings In General. Washington, D. C., Oct. 19. It is now tho fourth day of the ses sion, and business may bo said to have commenced. The Houso is in much better humor than usual, part ly because tho Democrats organized it with so little bad feeling among themselves, and partly because they > have so far treated the Republican minority so liberally. Thus both sides aro happy. Tho almost unani mous vote for Randall in caucus was a deserved recognition of the ability j and fairness with which, in general, he presided over tho House at its late session. He did not please everybody, but bo pleased more, probably, than any one else could have done. The first important act of the House, after organizing, was to ndinit two colored claimants from South Carolina, leaving the contest over the seats to be made in the Election Com mittee. This was an act of grace un expected to the Republicans, it not being in the least in their line of bus iness Then came numerous nominations from the White House, generally of an acceptable character. General Harlan, of Kentucky, nominated for a place on the Supreme Bench, in place of David Davis, is declared by Koine Senators not to be, in all respects, a man fitted for the place, but as Sena tor McCreery of the same State cham pions him, bis confirmation is certain. None of the names were sent in over which a contest is expected. It may be said with truth that there is little appearanco of a desire on tho part of Senators to refuse the confirmation of any respectable man who has been or may be nominated. Speaker Randall has not announced the House Committees, but goes to day to Philadelphia to think over the matter. He will there be compara tively free from the solicitation of members and the friends of members, and will be able to make better selec tions than he could if be remained here. Everything that Randall has done or said since his election has been marked by the greatest pru dence, and it is believed by bis friends that the Committees, though their composition mnv disappoint many ambitious statesmen, wifi give general satisfaction. Senator Edmunds was early on hand with a proposition to appoint a committee of senators to inquire in to the State of the laws on the sub ject of ascertaining and declaring the results of Presidential elections. The Senator will of course be chairman of the committee. Senator Thurman offered a resolution to seat Senator Spafford, Democrat, of Louisiana. A motion was made to refer Spaf ford’s credentials to the Committeo on Elections, and the subject was laid over. It comes up again to-day. It is believed that Spafford will be ad mitted. Senator McCreery advocates the repeal of the bankrupt law. No other matters of importance were broached up to last night. The text of the letter by which Hayes induced Garfield to yield to Stanley Matthews in the Ohio Senr,- torship contest has been published. It shows that Hayes not only inter fered in the choice of a Senator in Ohio, but that he pledged to Garfield his assistance in securing votes enough to make him Speaker of the House. The letter shows how confi dent Hayes was at one time that he could control a portion of the Demo cratic party in the South, and how ready he was to interfere in affairs not propei, pertaining to the office of President Seuato, Jones of the Congressional Sdver Commission, has finished his report, and it will soon be presented to Congress. It is not in print, but is said to be able and exhaustive. It recommends the remonetization of silver, and the Senator and the Com mission’s very well informed and effi cient Secretary, Hon. Geo. M. Weston, of Maine, are confident that Congress will at an early day pass the necessary bill to carry the recommendation into effect. What action Mr. Hayes would take in the event of such legislation, is purely a matter of speculation. His vote would be effectual, as, even if the Commission has a majority in the two Houses, it certainly has not two-thirds in either House. Austin. am • That is Right. —When you have been reading a newspaper two or three years without having paid a cent on your subscription, always get your back up and stop your paper when the editor duns you. It never fails to impress him with a clear insight of your idea of justice and honor.— Sumter Republican. What’s going to happen in Massa chusetts ? The Boston Post of Wednesday, good Democratic author ity, says: “Boston is to send back her greeting to Ohio to-night. The cra dle of Liberty will rock to the music of victory that fills the air from the Golden Gate .to Cape Cod.” When Beecher bemoaned his nep hew Gillman’s ruin, ho did not state to what extent the nephew’s fall may have been due to the influence of the uncle’s example of insatiable avarice. —. am * - '■ ■■ Tile President will visit the state fair at Richmond, Va., the last of this month. He will also visit New Or leans and other southern cities. Monday, Mr. M. C. Kimbrough, of Harris county, had his gin bouse, con taining nine bales of cotton, consumed by fire. Nothing was saved, and there was no insurance. The fire was caused from friction while the gin was running. Last year about this time, and on the samo spot, bis gin bouse, without auy insurance, was consumed by firo, which orgiua ted as mentioned above. Augusta G. Bartlett, who is white, brought a suit in Chicago for divorce from his wife, who is black. They bad been married two years, and bad lived together peaceably; but he had gradually grew tired of tho notoriety that the contrast in color gave them. His accusations against her, however, were found to bo groundless, and the case was decided against him. The first telegraph line in China is at work, and, most wonderful of all, has been erected by a Chinaman. It is six miles long, and connects the of ficial residence of the Viceroy of Pe cbili with the Tientsin arsenal. As it was projected by a native, no attempt at interference was made by the peo ple. Gen. Stonewall Jackson held that three kinds of courage prevail among soldiers in battle, based respectively on insensibility, pride, duty. The democrats having carried Ohio by some 25,000, Pendleton seems to stand the best show for senator. Why Will Yon Pine Away I Without a Parallel. —The demand for Dr. J.

Marietta, Ga., March 9, 1870. Messrs. Bradfield & Cos. Gentlemen: You will please ship us another supply of your invaluable Female Regulator, and for ward bill by mail. We are happy to state that this remedy gives better satisfaction than any article we sell. We have been selling it since 1808, and witnessed many remarkable cures by it. Among others, there was a lady friend of ours who was sal low and sickly until she was twenty-six years old, when she was married. Her hus band lived two years and died. She con tinued in bad health; in fact, she has never been what a woman ought to be. A few months after the death of her husband she saw your advertisement, and came to our store*and bought a bottle of your Regulator from us, and took it according to directions. It has cured her sound and well, brought her regular monthly periods on, and to-day she is a hearty, blooming widow—with the use of but two bottles of your Regulator, costing her only three dollars, when she had tried several physicians and spent a great deal of money without any benefit. Wishing .you great success with vour valu able medicines, we are, respectfully yours, 243-236 W. Root & Sons. New Advertisements.

FIRE! ONE OF THE MOST DREADED ELE ments with which man has occasionally to contend is that of fire. Nothing is so devastating in its course and so subtle in ’to developments. The destruction of property takes place when not anticipated, and mys tery frequently hides the cause; while the effect is only too visible and oft-times dis tressing. But in this age, when so many combustible materials are kept in constant use, persons cannot be too speedy and prompt in securing themselves against loss from that dread agency, by insuring their property in some well known and reliable company. There is none better than the Liverpool!
