Our Claims.

success is impossible. Aro our citifeus

Jesup has advantages which justify
tire expectation of ita becoming a town
of much more importance than its pres
ent status. Wc have foundation fora
hope of it becoming a place of commer
cial and educational importance, if the
claims it lias on each of its citizens aro
sacredly performed.
We claim that no good citizen lias ft
fight to dirt gat'd lire claims of his
town or couutrv, any more than he has
to disregard those sacred claims which
his God and family have ujon him ; not
that the claims of God and family nro
to bo compared will, those which friends
and country have, yet in proportion to
tire magnitude oud saorod obligations
ef those claims, ho is certainly under
as greet obligations to discharge them.

to discuss innro fully, the claim* of
our own profiN-ion upon lire people.

<'*ts of nil oilier [tofiiMons anil occn

farmer, mechanic, raorohanl, artist, pro

-Haims which they owe it. Educator#
and business men of a high order of
inlect, arc among the flint to acknowl
edge the claims which the press has
upon them, atid arc also the first to
discharge their duties toward the press.
This of itself is strong testimony of the
■great advantages of the pro-fi. It is a
truth that w ill not bo questioned by any
intelligent mind, that whatever advan
ces the i’cneral good of sooiety most,
must certainly have the greatest claims
on every class of society. \\ e, at once,
and most earnestly, insist that journal
jsin has more and greater elainia on so
ciety, than Inis most profession! . \\ e
also acknowledge the claims of society
upon ns, and for one, wo propose, as
far as in us lies, to dischnrgo them
faithfully, fearlessly and zealously, lool

the Fentini i is published to recipro

NVe have oast our lot among the good
people of Jestip, for the purpose of bon
oQ'tinp and being bencfittcd, nor do we
sxpeet to be disappointed.
Wo shall endiovor, from time to
time, to dbouss such subjects of local

claim on us. We sh ill expect a hear

Washington, March 30th, ISTS.
Calling at the State Dipnrtment yes
terday in search of news, (the proceed
ings m Congress being of a particular
ly dull and somnolent nature) was
shown a letter which had just boon re
ceived from Mi. Kiifiis T. Smith, one
of onr A-sistaut Commissioners to tho
Pari# Exposition, in which that gentle
man makes a lengthy and very favora
ble report of the progress of the Amer
ican section nt the Paris Exposition, to
he opened on the first of May, next,
and which will surpass in grandeur and
previous International Exhibition, with
the exception, p"ssibly, of our own
groat '‘Centennial S!i w,” which e ver
ed more ground, at least, than the one
ab ut to bo opecod in Paris l am
thus enabled to present to your rea 1-
ers, in advance* tho (hst official uud au
thontio report on the subject
As v our own Expositi n of IS7 I ,
each nation reptcoented at l’aris will
have a building of its own, located on
the Cnauip do Mars, iu close proximity
to the Main building. It was the de
sire of the French Commissioners, that
each nation should construct a build
ing which would be. in some way, rbar
aeterislic of the count y to w ieb it be
longed ; a 'ask not easy in the ooustruo
iiiou of distinctive American edifice
(unless built after the pattern of au lu-
Umu Wig*am.) Hence, ns tho next
best tbii g, in tlic absence of an Ameris
ran style of architecture, it was deci
ded to mike this building ou the plan
and general appearjucc of a bant!- me
villa, sitcli as one* may see in any ot the
fast iooahie subtibs of cur larger c ues,
ar.d on a et i it plentifully with em

first floor will be handsomely furnished
as reception rooms, where Americans
wiM at ail times be sure to meet friends
and receive a hearty welcome It will
be crecti and close to the United States
annex and from tire balcony surround
ing tire cupola, there will be a sup cr b
view of the exposition grounds. The
spiers between the wind itvs on the front
s de, or facade, will ba divided into
thirteen panels, on each of which will
be represented, on an ornamental es
cutcheon, the arms of the thirteen orig
inal States (if llie Union ; and along
the cornice, above these panels, the re
maining Sta'os will be represented by
smaller escutcheons carrying their ar
morial hearings; the armsof the States
I of California and Colorado, occupying
a cen'ral position, directly over the
1 main entrance. A fi g pole, fevcoty
j fed high, will he erected in front of
| the building, from which the Stars and
Stripes will he thrown to the Parisian
i breeze.
At the Exposition, we will, all things
considered, mako a pretty fair display,
esp dally in agricultural produce and
implements, edge-tools of all Iprids,
bardwaro goods generally, and electri
cal apparatus, One very interesting
exhibit will be the complete process of
making shoes by machinery, the ma
chines Ireing (he same as those which
recently can ire! of a number of prices
i:. Belgium. Among the States, Cali
foruia i- pr-pared to make the m st
showy display, and 'her exhibition of
minerals will he the fined the worlJ
has ever seer,. A pyramid, twenty feet
sqttre at tiie base, and sixty-seven arid
a half feet high, will represent the 7,-
000,000 of cubic inel es of gold which
have been produced on tno Pacific
coast. This mass would be equivalent
to a solid l-lock of pure gold, as large
as square room sixteen feet in height,
length, and breadth. E circling this
pyramid there will be fifty plate glass
show eases, in which will he artistical
ly arranged, the mineral wealth of that
fjvore I section.
The appoint merit of Judge Scofield,
of Pcnmtylvania, to tho Rcgi torship of
the Tronsiiry i) pertinent, made va
cant by the sudden death of the lato
Register Allison, and his acceptance,
has caused not a little comment in of
ficial circles here. Tho high social and
politieal position heretofore held by Mr.
Scofield in his Stale, his long and very
prominent service in Congress, his can
didacy for the offi-e of Secretary of tho
Treasury under Grant’s administration,
nml for the Judg'ship of the U. S.
District Court ; these fuc's, coupled
with his undoubted legal attainments,
have line! the effect of casting ridicule
on him for accepting a place purely
clerical—a sort of chief book-keeper
ship—whose most arduous duties con
sist. in signing his name ou an average
of a thousand times a day. If he does
make himself at all familiar with the
records and n il-tapo system of accounts
o' the office over which he presides, it
will require years of irksome labor to
get tin! rno of the machine ; ami eveu
then he wi'l have to confess himself in
ferior, as to posting, to many of his
subordinate# who h ,ve entered the Ilc
purttneot us Messenger. Hut tho Bog
istorsldp will! its salary of four thous
and [or annum, is a soft shelf for a bro
ken down or breaking down politician ;
yol it appears to me that if political
j hacks aro to he provided for in that
| way, iJ would be well to sidict poor
| specimens ol the animal, and not wcal
| thy ottos like Mr. Scolidd,•worth a bun-
I died thousand dollars, or more.
,S nator Paddock, of Ncbrasen, who
is chairman of tho Scuato Committee
on Agriculture, bus, with commendable
encigy, b eo engaged recently in col
lect iig llio statistics of the diseases
which a fleet hogs, lie has, in couse
qunnoo, become alurmed at tho number
and violence of these diseases, and the
frightful intrinlily which prevails
among those animals. With a viow if
ohecking this yearly dead loss of capi
tal wbioh lie believes can be attributed
only to the ignorance which prevails in
regard to this matter, ho proposes to
draw up a bill asking Congress to ap
point a commission of th ee of the best
veterinary su'geotis in the country, to
inquiro into iho causes and proper
remedy of thrso diseases llogs con
tract in ease Is in early life, as some of
their prototypes of tho human race of
ten do. They also havo pneumonia,
soni-Jet fever, small pox, all the throat
diseases, and if they Servivo all those,
they are very liable to be taken with
consumption. His bill will doubtless
pass, for sympathy is such a powerful
thing!
Speaking of a Senator, naturally
leads me to think of the body- to which
ho belongs. The achievement* of tlio
Senate, during the week just past, have
bean comparatively few and unimpor
tant ; the passage of a bill to encour
age tree planting on government lands,
and three days afterwards, the passuio
of t' o so-called Little Deficiency Bill.
The net result of tho week’s work is,
thcrof ro. almost invisible. The House
p ssod a lull to reform the advertising
of mai: contracts, and the Naval Ap
propriati m Bill, whoso specifications
aro minute beyond president, and,
then tore well calculi ted to preveut
abuse# i'i tlie expenditure of moneys.
Senator 11 we'# speech against tho
administration, created s iuo tempora
ry excitement ; but that has all blown
: over, and that reminds me that while
traveling out West during the last
election, l saw this dignified and ven
erable Senator, whose Christian name is
T m >thy O. Howe, billed familiarly as
‘ Tim. O. Howe," in some obscure town
in Wi-oonsiu, where bo was announced
to speak, and when the collie olemei t
is dec; Jedly prod uiioati. g. Such is
; life !

unmistakable language and for which we request a carsful perusal. We beg to
caution tnc public to try to discrimii a'e between our dealings and that of mer
