The appeals for help f.-r the suf
fering poor of Ireland are being gen
erously responded to all over Lhe
Uuiou.
President Lincoln’s walking-s ick,
stolen from the box at the theater on
the night of his assassination, has
been recovered at Troy, N. Y.
Miss Nancy Smith, who was lately
admitted to the bar at Keokuk,
Iowa, was entertained at a banquet
upon the- occasion by her brothers in
Jaw.
The Fus'ouist Legislature, being
refused admission to the Maine State
Ilouse oi. the 19th, immediately or
ganized on the sidewalk and pro
ceeded to business.
The Kiel m >nd D spa'cli says:
We repeat-,that it is oi.e thing to
nominate Gen. Gra t, anc another
to elect him ; or, rs a Congressman
has said, “Grant would be an easy
man to nominate, but a h- rd one to
elect.” The Grant boom may go on,
therefore, until he shall have secured
the nomination, an l still find the
third term advocates as far as ever
from securing the object which they
had in view when they originated
it.
Reports do not show that Grant
was either shot at by a Southern
Ku-Klux or swallowed by an alliga
tor during his passage through a
portion of the Siu'h. Things are
evidently getting civil down here.
Daring the ytar 1879 there were
eighty-six fai'urt-s in Georgia, with
liabilities aggregating $574,323,
against one hundred and nineteen
f.diures in 1878, with liabilities
amounting to $3,738,134.
The road bed, right of way, fran
chises and property of every descrip-
cription of the Macon and Augusta
Railroad will be soli in Augusta, on
tin* first Tuesday in March next, to
satisfy claims held against it by the
Georgia Railroad and Banking Com*
par.y.
Miss Lane, who in the days of
James Buchanan was mistress of the
White Ilouse, and who is now the
wife of R ibert Johnson, a wealthy
banker of Baltimore, has recently
purchased Wheatlands, the place
where her uncle was born, in Penn
sylvania, and will there erect a me
morial worthy of him.

The New Orleans Times estimates
that at least two. thirds of the avail-
i ble land3 of Louisiana are lying
idle, or rather, have never been
brought into sultivation. The Leg
islature nowin session will be strong- j
Jv urged t» adopt some liberal pro
vision tor the encouragement of im
migration.
The Knoxville Chronicle reports
poach blooms up in East Tennessee,
and says: We are informed that on
the Beaver Creek and Black Oak
Ridges, in this county, the place
where [teaches are always to be found,
ev’n when they fail everywhere else,
some of the trees are out in full
bloom almost, under the influence
of this soft and mild weather.
A tremendous conflagration has
occurred to Tc.kio, Jap in. Miles of
ground are laid waste, nearly 15,000
bernes have been destroy id, and 50,-
000 rendered destitute. The loss of
life is placed at 100. This is the
third calamity which has overtaken
the city in seven years, a similar conn
Bagration having occurred there in
1872 and again in 1870.
The colored citizens of San Fran
cisco have held a meeting and unani
mously resolved that the negroes
were but the tools to boost the wnite
Republicans into power, and never
secured any ol the offices themselves.
They are now looking around for
another party that will take care of
them, and give them some of the fat
places.
The widow of ex-President Tyler
has asked Congress for a pension,
on the ground of the immense de
pression in the value of her real es
tate, the mortgages on her Northern
property having been foreclosed, and
these on her Southern pr pc-rty con
stantly troubling her. She says: “I
find I have scarcely anything what
ever to live upon.”

Louisiana has a State Association
.of Sugar Planters, which held a
meeting in New Orleans on Thurs
day, attended by 100 members. Hon.
Randall Lee Gibson, memberof Con
gress from the New Orleans District,
and a praciical sugar planter, was
pres-nt and addressed the meeting,
advisTig that one or two gentlemen
thoroughly conversant with the su
gar in ustry he sent to Washington
during the session of Congress to
protect the interests of the planters.
Washington Letter.
[From oar Correspondent.]
Washington, D. C., Jan. 21,1S80.
Dear Advebtiseb: Nolessprom
inent Congres man than Speaker
Randall says that when the new
House rules are al jpted, the appro-,
priation bills will be passed sp -edily,
md that neither fio#ieial debates
nor anything else wilt be allowed to
into: fore.
S.-nator Beck speaks to-day against
Senator Bayard’s greenback resolu
tion. A few other Senators will fol
low him, but the debate will not be
long.
This government ha3 d-eidedio
recognize the King of the Samoau
Islands. Now, does any first-class
statesman want a foreign mi83ion ?
If so, no-v is the chance.
There was, la3t evening, an enor
mous meeting of the best citizens i j
Washington to provide mean3 of re
lief for sufif-ring people in Ireland
A large amount was subscribed, an l
sufficient agencies formed to secure
further aid. The proposal that
Congress shall appropriate half a
million dollars as a relief fund
meet3 with opposition, and will hard
ly succeed.
Mr. Wallace R. White, of Maine,
must be considered in one respect a
fortunate m n. Accused of bri
bery, he refused to appear before the
Fusion Legislature, which investi
gated the cose. Now an investiga
tion is to be had before the Repub
lican L-gislature, but the witnesses
against White are Fnsionists, and
will not recognize the Republican
Legislature by testifying before it.
Of all the public officers in J7ash-
ington, I believe no one is more
worthy of praise than assistant sec
retary of the Treasury, John B
Hawley, of Illinois. He hat b.-eu
in public life long enough to be so
favorab'y known that praise seems to
be superfluous. I speak of him
now solely because he is widely
named as the probable candidate of
his pu.' ! y for Governor of Illinois,
to be elected next fall. Ilis experi
ence in C ingress as well as in his
pn-sent'ofiice, shows that bis party
could not do bettur, while his taking;
away from Washington will be a
serious loss to the present adminis
tration. Olive.
Dennis Kearney Delivers Himself
Befo e site Washington Greenback
Convention.
Mr. Chairman, Men and Women :
“We are here to attend to business,
and after we have finished to go
home and work. We did not come
here to spout and stick our bellies
agri.ist the bar-room counters and
theor-z-.” He further said that they
were all bound on the same errand—
to capture the white house and leg
islative assembly and make laws for
ihe masses. This only could b--
done by going to work and organiz-
the massi s. The republican party
was run by national bank d,rectors
—“scoun Irels shod in hell,” and
the Democratic party was run by lhe
tools of these scoundrels. There
was no national difference in the
two parti -s, their sole aim being to
keep the people divided. The latter,
whom he characterized as “mudsills
and mutionlie ids,” w.-re to blame.
Year after year they had been led up
to the polls 1 ke sheep and made to
deposit their ballots. He had start
ed a new party in California to cap
ture the fitate and had been success
ful. Upi -u reaching Washington he
had been ask ;d what he came for;
whether he was a gr enbacker or
not. He was happy to say he was a
green bad ter [loud applause], and
being a gooi one, lie believed in
sending ithe national bank directors
to the lc west depths of hell, and
hanging J ohn Sherman lor occupy
ing aa offi ie iie was wholly unfit for.
The sp- iker was interrupted for
fully a mu ate by the applause which
greeted 1 is fast announcement;
even toe w imc-.i present, with but
few except ions, joined in the tumult.
Upon re, ami ig, Kearney said he
would not bore his hearers longer
[loud crie ! of “go on!” “give it to
them!”], hut would conclude by
saying the remedy for these evils was
in their own hands. If they would
be independent and not sell ont their
votes to tb ; fir.it bidder ranch good
would lie accomplished and the
greenback par y would eventually
triumph. Ken ney closed amidst up
roariou3 a| ola' se, the crowd seemed
never to ti <s m his coarse and badly
constructs 1 expletives.

Col. Cole and the Cincinnati Southern.
• [Savannah News.]
It is by no means unlikely that
the s lution of the present railroad
complications hinted at in extracts
which we publish on our firet page
—viz., that Col. Cole may form a
combination between the Cincinnati
Southern, Western and Atlantic,
and Central Railroads to Savannah
—will prove the correct one. The
object of the Louisville, Nashville
ami Great Southern road, in pur
chasing control of the St. Louis,
Nashville and Chattanooga, was two
fold—first, to reach the Sea without
incurring the great expense of build
ing the Georgia Western from Deca
tur, Ala., to Atlanta; and, second,
to circumvent at one stroke two
rivals—the St. Louis, Nashville and
Chattanooga aud the Cincinnati
Southern.
As matters now stand, the Cin
cinnati Southern has no Atlantic
outlet. Col. Cole is said to be a
high-toned, honorable and ambitious
man, and greatly outraged at the
shabby treatment he has received at
the hands of the directors of his
riad, who, on Sunday last, without
one word of consultation with him,
s Id him out, aud that, too, after, by
bis wise management, he had raised
the value of the stock of the road
from fifteen cents in the d dlar per
shale, to ninety-five cents, in eleven
years. Ex-Gu\eri;or Brown and
himself still control the tease of the
Western and Atlantic road from
Chattanooga to Atlanta.
Under ml these ciicumstances it
would net be at all astonishing if
Col. OuleefiLetsan arrangement with
the Cincinnati Southern by which
that road will form a combination
with the State aud Central lines.
By such an arraugemeut Col. Cuie
could yet maintain his position as
a railroad king, and the Cincinnati
Southern, now cut off from the sea,
could secure the best outlet fo; its
Western produce on the South At
lantic coast, without having to build
an additional mils of road. All re
ports agree that Cole is determined
to do something in the nature of
avenging himsell for the treatment
he has received, and this combina
tion may be the result of such de-
iermination v Al ,>i*y rate it will be
exceedingly intere. uug for our citi
zeus lo watt patieuLly aud “see what
we shall See.”
A special dispatch lrom Corinth,
Mississippi, states that the Clement
Atiachm nt is in successful oj.-ela
tion in that town. This newly pat
eued machinery, by winch like cot
on is spun off' into yarn of superior
quality, as it 'alls in Hikes from the
gin, pioimses to almost revolutionize
the handling of cotton in the South.
It is estimated that the introduction
oi this new process, with modest and
unpretending machinery, ■ will add
over $75,00d,000 to the annual value
of the cotton crop, and afford em-
I j loymeni to 150,000 operatives who
can; -t now be utilizeu in the various
industries of the South. It is

Air Appeal for Ireland.
The fc.ilowmg is an appeal to the
people of the United States, made
by the 'Dublin members of the house
committee for the relief of the dis
tress ii r Ireland.
It is now admitted that the dis
tress i of acute and excopional char
acter, certain to involve actual star-
vatio i if extraneous aid Le not
pror ,ptlv and liberally forthcoming.
It e' cistsoVi r wide districts of Ireland.
Th’s distiess is daily increasing in
area and intensity, so much so that
it s.-ems impossible lo avert until
n ext harvest an absolute iamine in
v ery many places. Every effort is
Ueitig made in Ireland itself by relict
- committees to investigate the ealami-
iy, but owing to the general com-
nsrcial and agricultural dejiri ssion
and lhe widespread character of the
d .stress, these iff ins have proved to
tally i> adequate to meet tne crises.
Me appeal to all Irishmen and all
I lends of Ireland for aid in our ef-
fo rts to save the people from destruc-
ti >n. We would point to the con
st tution of our committee, which
c mprises men of the highest chur
ch ter and position in the c. untry and
of all creeds and politics, both as an
as lurance that this appeal is justifi d
an I that any funds entrusted to in
sivtll be distributed ill a manner best
calculated to meet the emergency.

•’Squire Bray’s courtship.
lEcickvV’e [N. C.) Times.]
’Sqmre Bray, of Caswell, was hunt
ing another wife, but his son Bob, a
wild blade, knocked him out of it.
In the capacious breast-pocket of
the ’Squire’s great-coat reposed a
pint tickler, w ell tilled, that lie on
ly proposed using ■ >n his w-av back
from seeing tine Wic ow Brown. Now,
just before he started, Bob slij ped
the tickler ont, am put in its place
a small alarm xdock, carefully wound
up, and set for 11 p. m. The ’Squire
had sat the lire out, and was well on
with his overcont, holding the wid
ow’s hand at the do »r, and putting
in his sweetest licks for the last.
Yes, your first husoand, my dear,
was one of my b -st friends, and we’li
visit bis and my lost, Hannah's
graves, won’t we, love ?” “Ah, yes,
for where was tb -re a. sweeter woman
than your p-er Han nab ?” asked the
widow. “A good woman ; she was
good enough, but there’s a living
o.ie just as sweet.” said the ’Squire,
and ! e was d.-awing oer to him for a
kiss, when whiaz-wiiiz-zizzer wizzer-
hi’zer-ting, whir-rer-r-r, ting ! bang!
the cl ick went off inside of him.
“Oh, Lawd!” sersatned the widow,
“he’s shunting to pieces! It’s Han
nah’s old peanuy a playin’ inside of
him!” “She a id she’d haunt me!
She allers tolct me so!” cried the
’Squire, running in a stoop f >r his
horse’, whh both hands pressed to his
breast, and the clock still striking
ting, ting. Ho rode like Old Nick
was after him and never knew the
racket till he felt for his tickler and
pull' d out the little clock that Bob
had bought at auction. Tne widow
believes to this day that old man
Brav is a walking volcano.
While the count! v has so far been
disappointed in the many brilliant
thing? that were promised of el. c-
tric Jighk an invention, has been
steadily and quietly introducing it
self in the South which promises to
revolutionize the cotton industry to
almost as great an extent as did the
cotton g'n, when inyen ted by Whit-
nev. Tne Clement attachment to
the notion gin consists in countering
a spii mile by means of carding cylin
ders. and by this manner the cotton
is gic.netl, carded and spun by one
operation anti a single handling. By
this means at least four machines
u-.ed in tne old process are dispensed
with, and flie profit on cuton is in
creased fully two cents per pound, to
sav nothing of a saving of fully ten
1 per cent, in the amount o* lint pro-
j cured from the seed cotton.—Cinciu-

Washington, January 18.—For

a-systematic effort to aid the Presi

stories were not believed. They
have been persisted in however, and
r.re now attracting considerable at
tention. Tbns far, the exact sen-e
of the reported movement and the
names of those engaged in it nave
been carefully concealed, but lo-daj
information of the most trustworthy

that the effort iu question has already

and quoted from as the leading southern journals —
as the organ and vehicle of the best southern
thought and opinion—aud at home its columns are
consulted for the lastest news, the freshest com
ment, aud for all matters of special and current
interest. The Constitution contaii 8 mere ana la.
ter leL'raphic news than any other Georgia paper,
and this particular feature will be largely added to
during the coming year. All its facilities for gath
ering the latest news from all parts of the countrj
will be enlarged and supplemented. The Const!-
tutionjis both chronicler and commentator. Its edi
torial opinions, its contributions to the drift of
current discussion, its humorous.and satirical par
agraphs. are copied from one end ol the country
to the other, it aims always to be the brightest
and the best—newsy, rriginal and piquant. It
aims particularly to give the news impartially and
tally, and to keep its readers informed of the drill
of current disenssion by liberal but concise quota
tions from all its contemporaries. It aims, in
short, to more than ever deserve to be known as
“the leading southern neswspaper.” Bill Arp will
continue to contribute his unique letters, which
grow in savory humor week by week. ”01d Si”
will add his quaint fun to tho collection of good
things, and ‘’Uncle Ilemns” has in preparation a
series of negro myth legends, illustrating the
folk-lore of the old plantation. In every respect
The Constitution for 1880 wiil be better than ever.
The Weekly Constitution is carefully edited
compendium of the nows of the week and contains
the best and lreshest matter to be found in anr
other weekly lrom a daily office. Its news and
miscellaneous content? are til I freshest and is
market report? tue latest.
