SOUTHERN BANNER: JUNE 18, 1S7S
Ben Hill on the Situation.
]Clncinnatti Commercial Special.]
Washington, June 6.—Senator
Hill, of Georgia, in conversation with
the Commercial correspondent tc-day,
said that he believes that the inves
tigation now in progress w'.U not
lead to anything alarming. He does
not believe that it is possible to con
nect Hayes with any ot ihe alleged
frauds. His confidence in him is
still unshaken. A- to the charge
that the Southern members content
plated unseating Hayes, it is utterly
and wickedly' false, llayes is legally
the President, and will be sustained
A Smart Jewess.
Adolphus Fiirmelon was a smart
young man»’ It was his firm con
viction that with the opposite ser he
was irresistible. One evening Fitz-
melon was at the opera, and in an
adjoining box he espied a beautiful
young lady without a male attendant.
Ho nodded to his companions and
remarked that he must make a con
quest. So into the adjoining box he
made his way and unceremoniously
seated himself l»y the young lady’s
side. She looked up in surprise.
Adolphus smiled sweetly’ and begged
pardon ; he must have been mistaken,
bv every Southern man during his ! he had thought he recognized in her
term. All talk about revolution is an acquaintance. She informed him
The only way to [ lie was mistaken.
pure gammon
oust Hayes is by impeachment - To
bring articles of impeachment would
require the clearest proof that he
had guilty knowledge of the frauds,
that the frauds, in fact, elected him,
and that he rewarded the offenders
after he became President, with full
knowledge of their guilt. No such
proof has been yet adduced, and the
Senator believes it will not be.
In regard to the cry of revolution,
it is a matter of fact that more repub
licans in the two branches of Congress
would Le glad to see llayes ousted,
no matter how, than Democrats. As
to the wild proposition that when
the Senate becomes Democratic the
two houses should refuse to recognize
Hayes, he does not believe there are
to exceed twelve Democrats in both
branches who would favor this.
As for Senator Matthews in his
unfortunate predicament, lie has the
esteem, respect and sympathy of
every Senator. They do not believe
him guilty of intentional wrong.
The trouble will he to maka the
country understand Matthews

“ Still,” ventured Adolphus, “ I
hope I do not intrude.”
The lady made no reply, but turned
her attention to the stage where a
scene was transpiring in which she
was p inuch interested. At length
Adolphus addressed her again. Turn
ing quickly, she raid:
“ You annoy me, sir,’’ and her
bright eyes flashed.
“Bless me!*’ cried Adolphus,!
drawing back with mock terror,
*• don’t eat me.”
The lady smiled a sweet, beaming
smile as she replied :
“Be not alarmed, sir; I ant a
Jewess and my religion forbids me to
eat pork!’’
Unfortunately for Adolphus his
friends heard the rejoinder, and he
is not likely soon to hear the last of
his passage with the beautiful Jewess.

The Jetties Not a Success.
Washington Correspondence of the Cincinnati
Commercial.
A gentleman in this city lias a let
ter from an old sea Captain in New
Orleans, in reference to the failure
of the jetties, from- which I make a
few extracts. I am assured that the
Captain knows what he is talking
about. The letter is dated May 25:
“ .Jiin Lyons, bar pilot of the City
of Bristol, told me, when site went
out drawing twenty-three teet and
two inches, that there was a bar in
side the jetties with only twenty feet
ot water cn it, and that he drove her
up with full speed. She stuck. From
her mainmast forward there was
twenty-four feet; from her mainmast
aft there was only twenty feet.
They worked on her without any
good results.
After being on there thirty six
hours, the quicksand cut out from
her, and she literally drifted to sea
from one side to the other. Not
having steam, they had no control of
her, and did not kuow what time
•he actually commenced moving.
The Agia Sofia drew eighteen feet
and six inches. The could not keep
her in the channel. Succeeded after
backing off, and came in on the third
attempt. ,
She leaves this week, and will not
draw' less than twenty-two feet.
The Persian is now in the jetties
out of the channel, drawing twenty,
one feet and six inches. Do not
know when she will get up.
The channel is very narrow, con
tinually shifting, owing to the nature
of the soil (quicksand), and the vari
ous eddy currents.
Evidence multiplies here against
the success of the jetties at the mouth
of the Mississippi, but there is r> pow -
cvful effort to keep the real facts from
the public.

We learn from the Thomasvilie
Time* that on Thursday evening
about sundown, while some negro
laborers on Mr. Win. J. Hoard’s
plantation, six miles from town, were
hauling in a load of oats, they were
struck by lightning. Two of the
negroes, Jake Taylor and Bryant
Heard, were instantly killed, as were
the yoke of • xen next to the wheels.
The yoke of oxen in front, and also
a negro, escaped. The wagon and
load of oats were consumed, the
lightning having set them on fire.

can go in and see him; but remember
that he is very sick with heart dis
ease, and don’t say a word that will
trouble him.’’ Then she walked in,
sat down on the edge of a chair, and
remarked cheerfully, and shook her
head. “ Ali—ah!—me!—sad, ain’t
