THI KM DAY MOKNINtt, DF.C. 13, 1877.
Senator Gordon.
Some month ago, it will l>c iMineiubfr
e<i, n movement was et oil loot to defeat
General Gprdon for the Senate, by the
present elected Legislature. Some promi
nent politicians were even mentioned Ibr
the place, and Gordon’s defeat predicted.
This pony, effort on the pait of the outs
has received a quietus from the people of
Georgia. In many "sections of the State
it was made a test, and it would have
been fatal to the asperation of any candi
date to have openly opposed him. TANARUS! e
Northern press, with ii:gulur uuaniu ity.
scoffed the idea of ostracising Gordon
for any other uian. We rejoice that such
a Waterloo defeat lias overtaken the rest
less opposers of our distinguished and
trusty Senator.
Tbe State Election.
The election all over the State passed
off quietly, with only a little unpleasant
ni'HH hero and thure; but no lives were
lost nor bones broken. The vote for the
the Capitol was overwhelming in favor ol
Atlanta, although Milledgeville and hci
friends had made a gallunt fight in be
hulf of "the halls of our fathers. Both
cities woie investing their “bottom dol
lar” on the result, but Atlanta was too
much for her competitor. •Thousand
arid hundreds if thousands were spoil
by tho friends of each city.
The New Constitution was ratified by
an itiMnenso majority. The Homestead
of 1877 likewise receives u large majority.
What will the press of Georgia do now
for a hobby, since the Capitol question is
decided? It is too early to agitate the
question who will bo tho candidate for
Governor in 1880, and all tho member
elected to tho Legislature arc for (Jordan
for the Senate.
Shocking Tragedy.
We find in tho Atlanta Constitution the
account of it most shocking tragedy,
which took place in (Ala )
Cemetery, on Saturday evening the
inst., which is as follows:
”An Italian by. the panic of Nicr. si
and a Miss Aurelia Sharp, lormerly of
Atlanta, were seen to walk Into the cem
etery ami "seat thumso ves on a tomb
stone. The Italian was observed to be
talking in an excited .tone, and bolding
one of the lady’s hands in his. T e
next morning they were found lyi g dead
near the tombstone, with n ballet through
each of their heads, and the pistol in the
Italian's hand. They had been in love
with fuller for some time, but her
fami y opposed their marriage. Uue re
port is that she was engaged to be mar
ried to another gentleman, and it is sup
posed the impetuous Italian finding lie
could not get her shot her and then killed
himself. A letter was found, directed to
Nicrost's brother, stating they pr<fer.ed
to die -together; but it is behoved he
murdered her and then killed hiiuscll,
cither from remorse or the fear of pun
ishment, She wnsjpia’dy of rare beauty
and great intelligence, and tlie sad event
has oast a gloom over tho coinmuniiins
where she was best known, andfijiivr
saddened tbe home of her family. Su h
occurrences are really sickening. ”

The President * Message
Much interest lias naturally been mani
fested to know what would be the animus
of the l'jvsident in his annual message to
ConcmAp ami both parties, friends and
awaited with anxietywits ap
pearance in tho public journals. The
Democratic still unreconciled to
the fraud which placed him in power, in
opposition to the expressed video of the
popular volu df -tho country, and tho
Electoral vote’of a majority of the States,
have sullenly watched his utterances.
They have'been willing to give him cred
it for his pacific Southern p> l.cy, and for
his gofiiab expressions in his .Southern
tour The leading Uepuhlicans, le I on
by sueh men as Cotikling, Morton, Blaine
& Cos., have promptly denounced him av
a renegade to his party, and have let no
opportunity • pas* of pourii g “hot shot”
into the 'Chief Executive. But he has
spoken, and neither side is pleased. His
Southern policy is distasteful to the lie
publican party, as is his civil service re
form His views on tbe finances of the
country do net meet the wishes of either
party. spt hjfre if is propex to remark
that a sectWngl fi.cling is dividing both
parties. • The'South and Northwest is by
a large majority opposed to tit# llesump
tint) hill, whilst tlm East, where the capi
tali ts and bondholders predominate, is
eager for it. Here we think ‘lie Presi
dent makes his fatal blunder. The strin
gency in money mutters for some time,
has been caused by a want of currency io
the country, and the dreaded coal ahead,
till the Ist of'.January J7U, who., specie
payment will he resumed. Hunks have
failed, public industries have languished,
private enterprises have been over
whelmed, thousands have been forced
into bankruptcy, anil linancial ruin has
been everywh re present. Hints and
strikes have been the order of the day,
hut the bloated bondholder is safe, for
the principal and interest is to lie paid in
gold, and little he cates for the distress
which afflicts the country. Under such
circumstances, we think it unfortunate
that the (’residentshould seem liatically
urge resumption, when the future is
fraught with such unmistakable detri
ment to every one except that favored
cluss —tho bondholders. If his sugges
tions are carried out the worst is yet
ahead, and 18*8 will he n year of con
tinued panic and failures and str kes
will make it the uio-t ineiimriable era in
our history. Hut we hope that our Con
gress Will foil the President, and that the
Resumption bill will lie repealed and
that all sections may be blessed with great
prosperity.

Wm E. Chandler, of CTncerd N H
Tin' above named gent'eman, in writing
to the N 'W York Tribune of Dec. sth,
assumes the role of intercessor lor the
(as he eaK| tl era) persecuted and prose
cuted Republicans of South Carolina
and seems to wish to let the
know that he alone, of nil others, is tho,
modern light of both, political and judi
cial economy, of the Vmeiican continent,
rit this letter fie ealls upon the Republi
can party of rhe Union to investigate the
verdicts against them, and if they should
he thought wrong by tho party, of enurse
to set khem aside. T is is monstrous in
a g of law aw’ order, directly
advising the party to which he belongs,
and not of the party helonring to him to
step.in between the people and judicial
investigation of charges against the plun
derers of our common country, intimut
iug that it i- tin outrage because tho ae
cused had done everything in their power
to have IN’ Hayes and Wheeler counted
in, or standing firm, as he ealls it. Much
interfering with a faithful adiiiinistrat’on
of law of the land is an insult to the in

Diphtheria.
\ • * #
In a late number of the Scientific
dmcriam attention is called to the treat
ment of this disease ns practiced hy Dr.
CM. Chapman, of Brooklyn, New Vork.
TltV foaiful malady has haffl- and the skill
of the most scientific physicians in tKis
country and Europe, and has, as it were,
hid defiance to all known remedies. Some
years ago it prevailed as an epidemic in
the city of New York, and thousands
fell victims in a -hurt time. The treat
ment give the disease hy Dr. Chapman,
it. is proper to remark, is not now to the
profession, hut has been relied on by
quite a number of physicians iu this
State. But our object in directing atten
tion specially to his remedies, is to show
imw signally successful it has proved in
his ham’s, reducing the mortality from
about ST out of u hundred to about two.
The remedy found so potent, is alcohol,
in the form of whiskey, of which large
doses, frequently repeated, are given
from tlje commencement. To this is ul-o
added occasional doses of quinine. The
remedies show and ho commenced early and
kept up wirhout intermission until im
provement is noted, when they may he
gradually diminished.
Dr. Chapman regards all local reme
dies as worse than useless. They exhaust
the nerve force and induce greuter injec
tion of the blood vessels, thus favoring
the, exudation- ’’ The alcohol fails to
produce intoxication in diphtheria, when
given in doses that would cause profound
! intoxication •in health. Under its use
I the pseudo-membranous or leathery de
! po -ir which covers the tonsils, and so often
1 extends into the Larynx and windpipe is
detached, and the patient is restored to
health, rarely suffering from the sequel®
which so often follow when the other
treatment has hoen used.
We see from the Atlanta Constitution
I that ox-Gcv. Hulloek has made a prompt
1 appearance in Atlanta and demands a
speedy trial, which was set for the 11th
inst. He is very defiant, and sanguine
of acquittal. His trial will call up a dark
•ra in tho history of Georgia when
“might made right,’’ and the dearest
interests of tho State were in ti e bauds
of an unsc upulous majority composed
of carpet-baggers and scalawags. If 'he
allegations against Hulloek are proved he
| will render tfio State good service for
many years to come.
The last number of the Cedartown
: K.rprts* contains the valediet ry of O.
B. Whatley, Esq., one of the euitc rs.
This will be regretted, as ht was a vigor

The Turko-Russian War.
Recent oversea to the Turkish armies
indicate that the leluntl ss war which luff
been so active during l he last lew mouths
will probably terminate soon, unless
England, the obi ally of Turkey, comes
to her rescue with men and money. It
is doubled whether England will interest
herself unless Russia threatens tile Suez
canal uud 4’ouslaiitinople, iu which ease
the British lion will begin to roar and
growl. Many ol Turkey s strongholds
have fallen as an tusy prey to Russian
valor, and it seems only a question ol
time when h< r vu.-t t rritory vvul he open
to her invader. It remains to be seen
whether other ualt&alities in Europe
wilTremuiu passue wh ITiIT fen ibie
carnage is waged. For any othir nation
to interfere in behalf ol Horsey would
he promptly met hr un opposing alliance,
and soon the spectacle of an immerse
war iovolvmg all Hie powers of Europe
would be presenter
Health de the Pope.— The advice.-*
for .sometime have in lieu ted that the
Pope covld not long Mirvive, uud every
day in expected to be his last; acute dis
euso and tho infirmities ol' extreme Cee,
are | ressing heavily ufion him. His death
will open perhaps u new era in the Cath
olic church, ol which, lor more than a
quarter of a century, he has been its
chief head, and it is proper to remark
that no ohurch over hail a representative
who was more universally beloved. His
word has been a law unto his church, and
however much it has been opposed bv
tho pro'estant world it has increased in
numbers and is now the Icadii.g religion
of the world. Rut the tuan who has so
long directed its progress will soon pass
away from earth.

bun in good Indian style, killing Ins
horses so that ho would have something

They would have killed his widow, but
as she was old and ugly thi_y came to the
