Hon. Joseph A. Blance,of Cedar-
town, in response to the solicita
tions of many prominent oitizens
of Polk county, announces himself
squarely in the field as n candidate
for congress from the 7 th district,

80th of April.
Hon. Joseph A. Blance having
resigned the chairmanship of the
Democratic Executive Committee
of the Seventh Congressional dis
trict, Hon. John O. Waddell, mem
ber of the committeo from Polk
county, writes the Cocstitotion
thus in relation thereto:
'•Through your extensively circu
lated paper, I have thought it best
to notify the other members ol the
Executive committee of his action
and to suggest a meeting of the
committee in the city of Carters-
ville. on the SOih of April, at 12
o’clock, m, to take suoh action in
the matter os may be necessary and
fur Ibe purpose of calling a con
vention of tho party to make a
nominal ion for the next Congress
for this district. I have nn int r-
change of opinion with encli mem
ber of the committee,which consists
of Hon. S. H. Wheeler, of Walker;
Hon. S. P. Maddox, of Whitfield ;
Hon. Trnmmoll Starr, of Murray ;
Dr, C. King, of Gordon ; Hon. A.
8. Clay, of Cobb; Hon. W. M. Hen
ry, of Chattooga; Hon. D. u. Hood,

While Mr. Gladstone’s land pur
chase hill is surrounded by many
sentiments that appeal to liberal
minded people he has wisely foun
ded it upon a foundation of econo
my. Ho said: “The present contri
bution of the Irish taxpayers to
England was £6,980,000 of which
England paid back in the Irish civ
il service and in the service ol
collection £4,840,000. The res
idue, whi ch seemed to represent an
imperial contribution for army,
navy, nafio nal debt and imperial
civil charges, was £2,085,000.
What did England do with it
As an instance she sent an army
of 26,000 men to Ireland and kept
them there at an annual cost of
£3,000,000, £^16,000 more than
the balance mentioned. That
was u specimen of the economy
of tho system the speaker wanted
to root up”
The fact that his plan for • gov
erning Ireland is nearly five mil
lion dollars cheaper than the
present system, will appeal to
people who care nothing for the
rights of the Irish people.

A few days since, in Washing
ton, daring a sitting of the Senate
committee on the expenditnres of
public moneys, “Senator Plumb
called np the ease of Lieutenant
Jrsse Eastwood. Twenty-second
Kentucky Volunteers. General
Black having examined the papers,
said, in reply to Senator Plumb,
that the claimant’s regiment was
mustered in for thirty days’ service.
Twenty days later claimant was
allowed to go homo on account of
illness, where ho remained until
mustered out. He was never In
action, never in the presence of the
enemy, and never slept out of doors
but one night. The records ol the
Adjutant-General and Surgeon-
General’s offices showed no record
of any disability. The claim was
not filed until 1880. The evidence
secured in a subsequent examina
tion of the case showed that the
man bad rheumatism before he en
tered the servioe ; that in 1856 he
cut himself soverely with an adz,
and that later he fell from a house
and injured himsolf permanently.
The ease was allowed by Commis
sioner Clark aftor the present nd-
miuistration came into power and
the man received as arrears of pen
sions $10,155.”

The supreme court has rendered
its decision in the Bock mnrder
esse appealed from Babuu. In de
livering the opinion Judge Blan-
ford said:
“II the accnsod, who is arraigned
for the mnrder of his wiie, was
drunk, and in consequence thereof
did not know her or comprehend
the nature of the act he committed,
he would be responsible therefor,
and would be a person of sound
memory and diBcret ion within the
meaning ot the law.
The facts in the case show that
the defendant murdered Ids wife
without any cause or provocation,
while in a state of drankennos*
produced or brought on volunta
rily, without excuse qr palliation;
and the verdiot of imprisoniueut
for life is more merciful than he
had a right to expect.”
Judgment affirmed.
