A SIN OF T1IE ACE.
It does not require a close observer
to note that ihi* present age is possess
ed of many great, evils, whether more
than those of other limes we do Dot
care to discuss. Of our own time n
writer in the Westminster Re’-iew
seems to think that Irreverence is one
of the ruling evils. At any rate, it is
sufficiently prevalent to attract the
atteiiiioi\of eveiy thoughtful pertom
Says the waiter • I « ™
‘ Nothing in'these limes is serious
or sedate, nothing is lull of the springs
of compassion or moral motive that is
not turned to the poor purpose cl tri
vial ridicule. Our children are taught
to laugh at everything, and to trem*
hie at nothing.’
This is true also of America; far truer
than in England. The sentiment of
reverence is almost extinguished. The
voting regard the old people as hol es.
Young women call the young men
fellows.’ Great fundamental truths
are called ‘ dogmas.’ If some unhap
py wretch.biows his brains out, it is
telegraphed by the Associated Press
with some flippant heading as a lively
bit ot news. A great conflagration is
^ telegraphed ns a ‘ 8200,000 fire.’ A
murderous assault, with perhaps a fa
tal result, is headed in the papers
‘shooting scrape.’ Women drink.
Young ladies go from the theatre to
the restaurant. Christian women read
Zola’s novels. Every man, woman
and child considers himself or hcrselt
as the peer oi anybody. There is a
universal reign of slang. There is little
true refit etneut of feeling ; everything
is vulgarized. The remedy is in the
family. If parents will not keep their
children in subordination, and govern
iheir households, and teach their chil
dren to respect what is worthy to be
respected, we shall discover after a
u hile that Young America lias torn
up all the foundations of social and
moral order. There is a gale Mowing,
tlie like of which has not been seen
Ik fore in this age, and we shall see
our shores strewn with wrecks.
Ol’lt WASHINGTON LETTER.
Fbtiriiffs on tlie Floor, and other Topics.
From onr Special Correspondent.
Washington, D. C. Dec. 24, ’80.
Congress has been electrified this
week with the liveliest sort of a sen
sation. It carried us all back to the
good old days of chivalry, when
Brooks, of Carolina, wore out a gut-
ter-percha cane on Sumner, of Mas
sachusetts, an^ when,a gen’lej
fiom Wisconsin literally snitch
gentleman from Alabama bald ^head
ed on the floor ot the House.
Speaking of “ practical politics,”
that speech of Emory Speer’s, ops
posing an appropriation of 8400,000
for fortifications, was a good speci
men. Mr. Speer is on the right line
Comptroller Campbell, who
took John Kelly’s place, has dismissed
fifteen officers, btcause he deemed
their services unnecessary. The. sal
aries ot those officers aggregated
$17,360 per annum.
It is said that several tweed mattu 1
factories from Soolland will move to
America, because they can get so
much better prices for their goods
here. This shows how protection
works.
THOSE Who calculated on a cotton
crop of 6,000,000 bales are going to
be badly mistaken. According to pre
pent estimates, the number of bales
will not much exceed five and a quar
ter millions.
a solid oplnton.
The New York World pertinently
remarks that Virginia was once the
mother of Presidents: but that now
her daughter, Ohio, was not only the
mother of Presidents, but of Supreme
Court Justices also.
Atlanta is gorag to organize a
cavalry company, with Gen. Pierce
Young as captain. Each member
must bo of high social standing, they
say. Now we know that the liberties
of the county are sate.
Benevolence takes strange turns
sometimes. Jas E. Brown, a wealthy
citizen of Kitanning, Penn., who died
recently, left $25 to each widow in
the place, and the same sum to every
wife who shall become a widow.
TnERE is a lively contest going on
now, among the Rads, as to who shall
be speaker of the House. It is sup
posed to lie between Frye, of J/aint,
Conger, of Michigan, Burrows, of
-Michigan, and Kasson, ol Iowa.
The statement is made that Dr.
Felton is getting ready to join the
radicals. We cannot believe it. Even if
there were no principle involved, the
policy would be unwise. What could
be make by it, that would compensate
him for the cost ?
Senator Jones, of Florida, in a re
cent conversation gave utterance to
the following thoughts, which com
mend themselves to the people of the
South just at this time :
No candid man, who looks at the
condition of the South to-day, and
who remembers the state it was in
under republican rule, can say that
the democratic party has done nothing
for us. Why should we abandon an
organization which raised the white
masses of the South from the helpless
and oppressed condition in which the
republicans placed them to the atll
tude of free Americans, with all the
rights and blessings of self-govern
ment ? Where would the white mas
ses of the South be to-day, if they
had been left to the tender mercy of
that party which set up among them
and over them the most infamous
system of government ever seen on
the face of the earth ? Can you for
get the long years through which we
struggled against the inflamed pas
sions of the black race, supported by
all the powers of the government in
order to restore healthy and honest
rule at the South ? And where could
we go if wo disbanded the dem
ocratic party ? Would itfbe possible
to organize a great admiration society,
made up of botli black and white,
which would break down Northern
prejudice and restore to the coi ntry
a spirit ot genuine fraternity? Will
the time never come when the people
of the North shall realize the true
condition ot the South ? Talk as we
may about the evils ot a solid South,
the slightest reflection will tell us that
solidity has been our salvation. From
the time the republican party first un
dertook the great work of reconstruct
ing the South until the present h-oir,
it has never for one moment made any
allowance for the previous history,
habits, feelings and institutions of the
South. This has been the fatal
blunder ot that party. With all its
boa?ted wisdom, it has legislated os
rudely and in as wild a spirit of pre
judice ar.d passion for ten millions of
intelligent freemen as ever did a bar
barous power for the serfs which its
arms had conquered.
Covington Enterprise; The sur
veyors of the proposed extension of
the Maoon and Brunswick road reach
ed Covington one day last week.
From one of the surveyors we learn
that the Covington route would no
doubt bo selected. Said he, “ It is
as easy to grade as baa ever been any
road iu the State. It will be the
nearest and cheapest route that can
be chosen to the West The people
all along our survey seem to be en
thused on the subject”
RAILROAD TRAVEL.
Despite ah the accidents of railroad
travel is the safest kind of transit yet
devised. A French statistician, wbo
is not connected with railroad journ
alism, has shown that France, pre
vious to the existence ot railroads, one
passenger in every 335,000 was killed,
and one out of every 30,000 wound
ed, whereas between 1835 and 1875
th re was but one iu 6,178,890 killed,
and one 650,450 wounded. From
this is interred a diminishing tendency
to accident* which must be net down
to tho credit ot railroads.
THE FIERY SPARKS.
Among the Illitiois delegation, is a
big, double jointed fellow named
Sparks, and like the sparks mention
ed in the Scriptures, he is prone to fly
upward. I don’t think there is much
harm in Sparks. He is the Chairs
man of the Military Committee; but
this is a time of profound ]>eace, and
Sparks has no opportunity of saliat-
ing his thirst for gore on the foreign
enemies of the American eagle.
Sparks has an idea that it is the duty
of his committee to be war-like at all
times, and consequently ever since I
have had any knowledge of him, lie
has kept up a sort of Wagnerian ac
companiment to the music of Conger’s
horn, and all of the other dulcet in
struments which are attuned on the
floor of the House. Last session he
ealled I leister Clymer, of Pennsyl
vania, a liar, and if there is an in
offensive gentleman in America, it is
Ileistcr Clymer. The House let hint
off then, after a very niggardly and
crabbed apology, ic which he seemed
to think he conferred a favor on the
House by apologizing.
On Tuesday last, General Weaver,
the Greenbacker par excellence, took
the floor, and he was very aggravat
ing for about two hours, particularly
to the Northern Democrats. Weaver
is a good talker, and I think he was
getting off a re-hash ol his campaign
speeches during the last contest ; and
what he said and the way he said it
was very amusing. The Northern
Democrats all seem to hate Weaver,
and what he said was very irritating
to them.
BLAND, BUT NOT CHII-DLIKE.
Bland, of Missouri, was put for
ward to reply to him, and did reply
very bitterly—accused Weaver ol
selling out to the republicans during
the late campaign, &c. Weaver re
plied to him good-hntnorcdly, when
Mr. Sparks came forward and sprang
into the arena. He got into a collo
quy with Weaver, which he ended by
saying that Weaver’s statement was
a falsehood. Weaver paid no atten
tion to it, in the confusion which was
very great, and after awhile Sparks
again arose and attempted to explain
away his language to Weaver.
Weaver replied that he had not
considered the language of Mr. Sparks
as offensive, and that always be would
strike a man if in the reach of his arm,
who applied to him directly an epi
thet like that which Sparks had used.
THE FUN BEGINS.
Then it was that the fun began. ‘I
spur-r-r-n the reach of your right a-r-
r-r-m. It would have,’ said Sparks,
‘as little effect on me as it had on the
last Presidential campaign.’ ‘Well,
said Weaver, ‘it is all settled now—I
accept your apology.’ ‘Yes,’ says
Sparks, ‘and if you had had the in
stincts of a gentleman, yon would not
have made the statement,’ or some
thing to that effect. ‘You proved,’
said lie, ‘that you did not have the
instincts of a gentleman in the last
campaign.’
Weaver very quietly said, and iu
mildest way I ever heard, ‘I denounce
the gentleman as a liar on the floor of
this house.’ Sparks, with a tremen
dous shake ot his fist, thundered ’You
a-r-r-e-a se-c c coundrel and a villain,
and if you come in reach I will hit
you,’ said the Colossus—the word hit
being, as I thought, a very ‘lame and
impotent’ expression, when front his
looks and manner I thought nothing
but the explosion of a torpedo, loaded
with a thousand pounds of dynamite,
in the pit of Weaver’s stomach, would
at all appease the magnificent wrath
of the Illinoisan.
At this challenge Weaver stepped
out in the arena in front of the Speak
er’s desk, and started in a very slow
stage strut towards Sparks. Sparks
saw that he was really coming—
though like the mills of the gods, he
was coming very slowly—when he
seized a chair—one of these rolling
chairs, with four legs nod rollers,
which he endeavored to lift, with a
view of presenting the legs at Weaver
as a sort of cheveaux dufrtsc—his ser
vice on the Military Committee havs
ing taught him the value of this sort
of fortification.
By this time, Einstein, a big
Dutchman from New York, had
caught Weaver, and three or four men
had canght Sparks. Several others
seen such Herculean efforts as were
made by the belligerents to throw off
their captors and engage in deadly
combat. Sparks could have extermi
nated Weaver, or Weaver Sparks,
long before anybody thought of catch
ing them, but it was not until securely
pinioned that the g.iattd effort was
made. In the meantime, Speaker
Randall rushed into tlie chair (the
House had been in Committee of tlie
Whole) and ^vociferously called for^.*5^
order, and ordered tho Sergeant- at-
Arms to suppress the riot.
GALLANT PHIL COOK.
General Phil. Cook was in the
midst of the shindy. I have never
seen the old gentleman seem more at
home sit.ee he lias been in Washing
ton. He screamed at the top of his
voice, ‘Trot out tlio American eagle,’
and jolin g. thompson, (as the Ohio
papers call him) seized the mace, and
with stately dignity walked out and
stood in the aisle near \V eaver. The
mace is pretty heavy, and jolin g got
tired of holding it, and finally rested
tlie butt end of it on his abdomen,
and there stood as the type of law and
order.

House, Savannah, Ra. dee.12.d2t.w2t.
The next morning a motion was
made to expel both Sparks and Weav
er, but they both begged pardon so
piteously, and the House was in such
a good humor at the approach of
ebrislntas, that they accepted their
apology and let them go in peace.
My own opinion is that both of the
gentlemen enjoyed the notoriety which
tlie circumstance gives them, and I
am heartily delighted that both of
them are Northern men, and that the
newspapers cannot jeer at our section
for this new instance of ‘plantation
manners.’ The whole scene was hu
miliating. There is no blood ou the
moon now, and the gentlemen con
cerned will let the matter rest where
it is.
ADJOURNMENT.
The House adjourned on Wednes
day, while the funding bill rejxtrted
by Mr. Wood from the Committee of
Ways and Meftns, wit being ' conti<$r
ered. There is a iccesa now until the
5th of January. Most the members
have gone home. They will return
at that time, bringing their families
witlt them, when the gay scasoD in
Washington will begin, and last until
Lent. There have been no gayeties
as yet.
SNOW.
The snow is on the ground now a
foot deep, and it is falling heavily as I
write. The sleigh-bells are ringing, and
swift trotters dashing by with the light
cutter sleighs, aud add great .variety
to the scenes on the streets and ave
nues. Sleigh-riding is very enjoyable,
at least it looks so.
I hear that the market Christmas
morning is a sight wortii seeing, I am
going down to-morrow to take a look
at it, and I may write you in my next
of some of the things I see.
THE GEORGIANS.
Ot the Georgia delegation, Blount
and Hammond have gone home. All
of the others, I think, are taking their
Christmas here. Mr. Stephens gives a
dining to-morrow to Senator Brown
and family, Mr. Speer and Miss
Laura, and Col. Richard Johnson, ot
Baltimore, itis talented biographer.
Mr. Oglesby, formerly of the Ban
ner, is here, aud is hopeful that the
Georgia electoral vote will be counted.
As the boys in the office will not
want to be over-worked next week,
I will say au revoir. L. C.
