Aaron Alpcoria Bradloy eulogized Treasurer Angler Tory highly yeoterday, and said he voted for Angier because he was an honest man and he (Aaron Alpooria) know it “Thai ,li settle It.” Appreciated FaUy t The Atlanta correspondent of tho Macon Telegraph and Messenger (Dem.) thinks, that the members of the General Assembly earn their nino dollars per day In being forced to hear the daily harangues of Scott of Floyd! Brotherly Lure. When Aaron Alpcoria was compelled to take his Boat yesterday by tho presiding officer of the Senate for violation of rules of order, non. Milton A. Candler immediately flew to his relief and plead with * “angelic strains of el oquence” that Aaron ehouldjbo allowed to pro ceed. Behold how good and how pleasant it is for brethren to dwell together in unity." === That Angler Dl,patch Again. The Esx of'the 20th insL gavo publicity to a ‘“rumor" then current among the adherents of tte Biyant faction of the Democracy, that Governor Bullock had drawn upon ae Geor gia National Bonk for 820,OOfe*‘within ae last few days;” that said drafts were honored by ae payment of funds belonging to ae as having telegraphod this—or a similar state ment—in ae interests of the Biyant Democ racy to Washington. This statement was mode as a “ rumor hut one which had gained general circulation among ae malcontents, and which was being used in ae interests of the Bryant fiction. On the morning of the next day, (to-wit, the 21st inst,) Capt. Bryant's Atlanta organ— The Constitution—referring to the Ena's state ment, mode this announcement: We have looked into too matter, and find that Angier telegraphed as follows: “ Within the last fiv® weeks. Bollock has drawn twenty thousand dollars on ae Georgia National Bank, of which John Bice is Presi dent, whero ae State Road deposits are kept. These drafts are drawn payable to the order of Sykes, Chadwick A Co., endorsed by them to Riggs A Co. AH of these men aro in Washing- Loolcing Tho Democratic Legislature of New York, which bitterly opposed the XVth Amendment, seems now inclined to aeeept it gracefully. They have passed a bill removing disabilities from colored voters, and repealing ae Registry law. Thus ae New York Democracy are begin ning to comprehend ae situation; and aey in tend to bid for ae negro vote—thru placing themselves at right angles wia ae Democracy of Philadelphia and other Northern cities.

Father Hyacinth*. Faaer Hyacinae was born in 1827. Last foil ho dononneed ae Papacy not Caaolicity; he suddenly came to this country; did not tnm Protestant os expected; out of courtesy ho at tended Henry Ward Beecher’s church once; at all oaer times when ho attended pnblic wor ship, it was in a Catholic Church; he was not excommunicated by ao Pope as expected; but immediately after his return to Paris was ab solved from bis monastic vows and obligations; continues in holy orders; he has not rononneed his preaching; probably no pnlpit would be open to him. Onao 1st of April] » newspaper named La Concorde appeared in Paris. It is ao organ of Pore Hyaeinthe, ao Abba Gmtry and oacr a ha.lon. of tho advanced clerieo-poUtieal party, and Jules K.

The Plehleeltnm—The French Agltatloi Napoleonic sensitiveness ever has, from ae timo that Bonaparte qnelled a riot in ae streets of Paris, been qnick to perceive ae commanding impulses of ae people of France. For ao Napoleon Dynasty is representative of ae men of ao world of France. Governed by no settled or fixed principles, but that of obtaining and retaining power, the representatives of this dynasty have always studied the situation as it is, and ao penplo of France as aey really arc. They pander to ae tastes of ae people aey never have had a bold npon power except from considerations instilled into too minds of aeir subjects that ao reign of a Napoleon is necessary to toe grandeur ami ae peace of ae French people. Tho proposed Pmmsoirort, is a confirmation of ao reputation for tact that has ever dis tinguished ae Bona partes. While ae Coun cil of ae Emperor divides on questions sprung by ae French Democracy; while leading men such as Napoxxon Diro and Bprrrr leave ae cabinet rather Han approve of an appoal to ae people, it is evident that Napoleon HI through his aoroagh perception of popular impulses, is master of ae situation and will se cure ae adoption of the Plehiseitumbya largo majority of ae popular vote, The Flebisritum, which is a proposition to make certain changes in too organic law of ae Empire, npon which as people are soon to vote, concedes, to ae progressive democratic theories of toe majority of ae French, enough to satisfy and quell ao present restlessness of ae people, and make secure to the heire at tho Man of Destiny the Imperial Crown of France. The Cessna BUI—Admission of Georgia. On Wednesday of last week, Mr. Cessna, of Pennsylvania, introduced a bill to admit Geor gia to representation in Congress, and which was referred to ae Reconstruction Committee. This bill (which we publish this morning) providos for an election of members of ae Legislature in 1872, and furnishes a solution of ae Georgia ease that will be satisfactory to ae Republicans of this State, and creditable to the party throughout ae whole country. It embraces ae most desirable features of ae bill originally reported by ae Reconstruction Committee, togeaer wia ae amendments of Senator Williams and of Senator Sherman adopted in the Senate. It affords a basis of compromise npon which the Republicans of boa Houses ought to be able to unit*, and set ais vexed question at rest We ore glad to note such a movement, coming aa it does from a representative of ae grand old Keystone State; and the Republicans of Georgia hail as an indication of a disposition to plaeo ae loyal men of this State, and ae Government established under the terms of the Reconstruc tion enactments, npon a footing that will seeme ae rights of person and property guarntoed in ae new Constitution of the State. We feel assured that this bill will psss the House promptly, when it comes up in regular order after ae 5th; and that the Senate will concur in the same without unnecessary delay. Five days later (to-wit, on the 20a) the Biyant organ, referring to this same dispatch, ahd to ae Ena's comments, says: The Constitution sVled the matte,-, and gave what it teamed to be the truth, dx. Now here is a positive statement, reiterated five days after its original publication, that Mr. Angier did telegraph to Washington that ■within the last five Jweeks," Gov. Bullock drew upon ae Bank "whero ae State Road deposits are kept” for twenty thousand dol lars ; whereas ao facts in ae ease are, that Governor Bullock has mado no drafts what ever npon ae Georgia National Bank, and ae few checks which he has made have been personal and in no wise official: and, like cheeks of oaer persons having accounts wia ao Bank, have been charged to tho Gover nor’s private account. -Tho number or ae amount of such private cheeks is a matter of interest only to ao Bank, and only “Paul Frys” and universal “busy bodies" seek to pry into a gentleman’s priTato Bank account or his grocery bills. Hence ao conclusion is inevitable: Either ae Organ misstated ae contents of Mr. Angler’s dispatch, and spoke dogmatically of a matter concerning which it claimed to be posted, but about which it really knew noth, ing; or, else Mr. Angier’s statement, in a* dispatch referred to, was exceedingly unfor tunate in being at varicnco vrUh ao tacts in ae caso. If ao Organ correctly represented the contents of Mr. Angler's dispatch, then ae onns lies wia that gentleman. But if ae Organ did ,not correctly represent ae contents of that dispatch, aen the onns lies wia the Organ. We leave aem to settle ais little affair between themselves. SPIRIT Op TIIE GEORGIA PRESS.

But it repudiates it by putting the State, in every other respect under the “Reconstruction laws” of tho last Congress. The article concludes by advising the Demo cratic members to return to their homes. THE AUGUSTA. CHRONICLE AND SENTINEL, (DEM.) Alluding to Senator Morton's speech wherein Gen. Terry’s Report is quoted from, character izes that Report os “false and libelous.” [Of course!] And again: He (Morton) evidently forgets that Hnlbert manipulated the State election, and that the grossest frauds were practiced in tho voting, which was continued several days, but also in the counting, all of which was done nnder Radical auspices. Bullock did not receive a majority of the votes cast Gordon was really elected Governor, but was swindled out of the office by fraudulent counting of the ballots. This is a fact not now questioned by any honest man in the State, and is susceptible of proof! [“Any honest man,” etc. means, as here used, any man who is still in the interest of those bankrupt politicians who oppose re construction npon the Congressional plan.] THE SAVANNAH NEWS (DEM.) Thinks “the Pomeroy business” a compromise measure, and adds: It would seem that the failure of the Senate to adopt Butler’s bill pure, without the Bingham amendment, was prompted rather bythe fears than by the magnanimity or justice of the Radical majority.

Apropos to this matter the Washington C ronicle says : v U the opening of the present session of G ngress the President, true to liis pledge to a! bid protection to the American citizen v lerevcr the flag floated, pointed out the rem- o y for the evils in Georgia by recommending t e reassembling of tho persons elected to the J jgislature under the reconstruction acts, and te exclusion from tho organization of rebels ho were disqualified.

Thcro ia one way, and ono way only, by which the Legislature eon proceed to general legislation, and that is by each member who proposes to engage in this business, Joking the Tost Oath. Attorney General Hoar, in the Virginia case, on August 28th, 1889, decided this point defin itely, and wo give bolow that part of his opin ion, to which we invite thi: attention of oar Democratic brethren. The italics are ours: The only reasonable conclusion seems to me to be no such legislature [for general purposes] should be allowed to exist and act until recon struction 1 ms completed, except for the limited and qualified purposes requisite to reconstruc tion. But, on the other hand, I folly concur with the view of the General commanding in Virginia, that nnder reconstruction acts of Congress, no officer or legislator is competent, or should be permitted to exercise any of the func tions cf power of his office within that Stale, ex cept so for as these aets themselves provide, WITHOUT taheco the OATH, which is referred to in the statute of 1867, above qnoted. The act of April 10th, 1889, requires the Legisla ture to meet at a time which it designates; that it is to meet implies that it is to come to gether for some purpose. It is required nnder the previous law to act upon the question of adopting the Fifteenth Amendment to the Constitution of the United States before the admission of the State to rep resentation in Congress, I am of opinion, therefore; that It may come together, organize and act npon that Amendment, bnt that until <8ongresa shall havo approved the Constitution and the action trader it, and aboil have restored the Slate to its proper place in the Union, by recognizing its form of government os Repub lican, and admitting it to representation, the Legislature i. not entitled, and eonld not, without violation of law, bo allowed to transact any business, pass any actor resolve, or un dertake to aMorae any other function of a Leg islature, IT TUB TEST OATH HAS HOT DEEM BB- qrraxD or res members.

Acting npon the supposition that the Pomeroy Amendment was not what the Radicals wonted, endorses that measure in a very gingerly, ten der-footed manner. THB ACOCSTA OOSSTITCTIOBAUST (DBM.) Says of tho “ Georgia Bill At present, it would seem, from the vote, that the bitter-enders of tho Senate had met with discomfiture. Whether an election nnder General Tony's supervision will better oar condition, or make it less tolerable, future cir cumstances alone mast determine. Mean while, the old maxim of not shooting until we are out of the woods is worthy of observance. [Yes, bo temperate. There is still amplo timo for reflection!] THB THOMAS TON' HEBALD (DEM.) Advocates the policy of State aid for railroads, in a lengthy article on tho subject It says If tho question could bo submitted to the people to-morrow, ns to whether or not the State should lend its aid to new railroad com panies so as to build np and folly develop rich and prodnetivo sections of tho State, which ore now comparatively worthless for want of railroads, ana the plan of lending the aid of the State frilly explained, showing that tho State can rnn no risk; in our judgment, three-fourths of the intelligent people, white and black, of the State would vote for it. Tho argument used by some, that the State will become seriously involved by lending its aid to railroads, is even without plausibility. Those who have made this discovery and are bnsily whispering it in the cars of the mem bers of the Legislature, care no more about the financial embarrassment of tho State than any other citizen. They resort to this species of argument because they think it popular. It would not do for them to urge the real “ss8.?UteH; teM-- fal 6ontinels from tho “watchtower” that the “Stato ia in iminent danger. ” Bnt we say there ia no plausibility for such an argument. THE MACON TELEGDAm AND MESSENGER (DEM.) Echoes the Bryant Organ’s insinuated slander about Gov. Bullock drawing upon a Bank “ where tho deposits of tho Stato Road aro made,” and says: No donbt Forney fingered a large share of that $20,000 Bullock drew on John Rice for. As Bullock owns no property and pays not one cent of State and county tax, we cannot shako off tho conviction that the State’s funds have been used to compass tho State’s ruin. This is very hard, indeed. No wonder that social brigand, Forney, worked so zealously Against Georgia. He dealt with a most generous pur chaser—ono who had no notion of economy or a hard bargain, because ho was trading on tho capital of those he hated with all tho venom of a narrow brain and a wicked heart. [Now toll us about Jenkins and Jones’ set tlement with tho present Treasurer, Mr. An- gicr!] THE AUGUSTA REPUBLICAN (BETANT DEM. ) In an article on “Tho duty of Republicans’ recurs to its statements somo weeks since, that the Republicans in Congress knew bat two parties in Georgia, to-wit: “Th© Democratic party led by Bob Toombs, Ben Hill, and others, whom they regarded as still rebellions, and the Republican party, led by Got. Bullock and Foster Blodgett” It says. Republican Congressmen feci that if they do not sustain Bollock and Blodgett [And therefore turn a deaf ear to Bryant, Caldwell, Scott and Bradley ?] tho Stato most fell into tho hands of the disloyal; and hence tho seem ing influence [“Seeming influence” is good!] of those men in Washington. Wo have a reason to beliove that few leading politicians in tho country arc more detested by prom inent Repnblican statesmen in Washington than these men. [A contradiction!] It known there that Blodgett is under indictment for peigury, [Ah, yes perjury!] But theso men ore the leaders of the Republican party of Georgia, and pretend to represent in Wash ington tho views of that party; therefore, bad as they are, Congressmen are forced to listen to them. [How sad!] They are not only re garded as bad men, but os unwise and weak party leaders, and in no instance has Congress yielded to their demands. [Congress, says Mr. Bryant, regard Governor Bullock and Hon. Foster Blodgett as bod men; neverthe less, Congress will endorse them; and there fore, according to Mr. Bryant, Congress as bad as “Bullock and Blodgett!”] The Georgia Republicans, opposed to Bul lock, requested that the colored members should be reseated, and those ineligible under the Fourteenth Amendment expelled; and Congress did that, and nothing more. [And yet Mr. Bryant was among those who opposed tho reseating of the colored members and the expulsion of the ineligible members; and therefore, according to Mr. Bryant, Mr Bryant was not a “Georgia Republican!”] And again; We intend to expose Bullock and Blodgett, and, if possible, arouse the Republicans Georgia to the importance of putting honest men in their places. [Then why don’t you do it, and quit.threat ening what you intend to do ? Give us feels— specifications—evidence. Your assertions are simply worthless, aa you ought to know by this time.] The Republican copies all iho transparent slanders of the extreme Democratic press, and yet its bmssy-eheeked editor has the effrontery to whine out that Ae is a Republican! THE COLUMBUS ENQUIRER (DEM.) Says of the Legislature: It does not know whether it is really a Legis lature, or only an inert appendage to a military despotism—a sort of “tin kettle tied to a dog’s toil.” It is positive in the knowledge of only one thing—that it has the unrestricted right to pnt its hand into the State Treasury and draw from its remaining pickings tho mileage and per diem pay of its members. We do not see bow the “Georgia bill,” os it passed th© Senate, will do much to clear off the fog6 of tfie situation. It declare? tho goy* eminent “provisional;” and that, whatever else it may mean, certainly does not mean a gov ernment deriving its powers from the people and honest masses of the North upon_ such an of high-handed legislative despotism. In this r . ililftTmwA they deemed it safer and more pru- will not be until we read a frill report of the to giro Georgia a respite, holding her proceedings in the Senate. It now appears under the heel of military power until after that we begin de novo bo far as the Legislature the Northern fell elections—when they can is concerned. impose such terms upon her as they please—^ rather than force her now into the Union in open outrage of every principle of right and decency. [The Democracy generally, in this State, do not relish the Pomeroy Amendment; but re flecting that they havo nobody to blame for bqt their Democratic “friends” in Congress, thoy “draw it mildly” when they assay to dis cuss its merits.] THE BAINBRIDOB SUN, (DEM.) One of the many Democratic papers in the State enjoying “the largest circulation,” ven tures this reason for the alliance of the Hon. A. Alpcorja Bradley with Mr. Candler, s leader of the Democracy in the Senate: It is not generally known abroad the reasons that prompted Alpeoria to oppose the election of United States Senators and the admission of Georgia into tho Union. He knows very well that as soon as the State is admitted he will be expelled and never again be allowed to dis grace the Senate Chamber of Georgia. But we presume he imagines that as long as the State^ s under military rulo ho can retain his seat. [It has likewise been suggested tlrnt the ten. nacity of tho Democratic leader in the Hous<^ Mr. Bryant, in tho same direction, is stimuli^ ted by fears not wholly dissimilar to those which tho Sun says famish an incentive lib Mr. Bradley. How is this ?] THE MACON JOURNAL (DEM.) Wants tho Legislature to adjourn sine die. It says We need no legislation. The present ma chinery of the State Government is sufficient for the interim that will occur before the pro posed election. It would be, at least if it was engineered by honest officials. Having hopo that the Legislature will give us Dew- honest officials, or pass laws to curb thos ready in power, we urge an adjournment at tee. [We understand that Mr. Aaron Alpi^ia Bradley, the new leader of the Democracy^in the Senate, mado a speech, yesterday, on the some line!] ■ THE ROME POUBH3 (OniLv Says the Georgia question has been sell [We refer to this as an item of nows!] The same paper says we arc to have an dcctibn, and it is confident thero are not ten counties in the State that will go “Radical.” Never theless, it says the “Democracy'* [whatever that may be] will go into the election wi;h forty-five thousand of their best men disfran chised. [Twenty-fivo thousand rnoro than were disfranchised in 18G8. How is this ’c] Still, says tho Courier, the Democrats [whom soever that may mean] will carry the State, Ac, Speaking of tho repeal of the laws prohibit) ing the organization of the local militia, thj Courier says: The Radicals arc now at liberty to form tin negroes and scaluwogs into militia compnnir-i and arm them with the “Winchester RifleJ that tlie doughty, Gov. Scott, of Carolina, st ardently sighed for. It is highly improbable; however, that tho militia will lie organized-* we have just been informed by a gcntlemitt. from Atlanta, that many of the leading Radh >at act the present Legislature was organized i January last. This organization not only as a legal existence bnt a loyal majority; and i the latter fact is the gist of all tho rebel op- osition. Just here arises the point upon hich the Union men and tho rebels of Geor- |ti £ia are divided. The legislative term fixed in the constitu tion of Georgia (which constitution, bythe Bray, docs not go into effect until, by the ad mission of the State, the reconstruction acts seasa to control) is two years. The rebels demand that the legislative term sliall be counted as commencing from 1868, and endmg with the present session, and this demand is acceded to by the Bingham amend ment. The Union men ask, and delegations have been and are here to urge it, that the term of the present Legislature shall not be restricted or curtailed at the request of the rebels and in violation of law, bnt that it shall hold its con stitutional term of two years from the date of its legal organization, viz: January, 1870. If Congress yields to tho demand of the re bels, shroud it as they may by fine spun theo ries, it will bo a Confederate victory. A Legis lature will be elected this fall that will send Toombs, Hill, or some men of their political stripe, to the Senate. Under the new appor tionment eight or nino members of the same character will be elected to the lower House, and the Union cause will be in a worse condi tion than now in Tennessee. The rebels of the other reconstructed States will not be slow to take advantage of such weakness on the part of Congress, and will, by force if necessary, crush out and overthrow every frieud of Un ionism or Republicanism in tliose States. On the other hand, if Congress will rebuke tho arrogance of these unrepentant leaders by recognizing the present Legislature of Georgia as the first legal organization and admit the State, new life will be put into tlio Union party of the South, and confidence in the firmness of a Republican Congress will be restored. During the two years which the Union party would then be in control of the Legislature, school, election, registration, mid militia laws would be enacted and put in successful opera tion, and tho State could be relied on as sound both iu 1872 and in tho centenary of 1876. c ers were continued in office, os follows: George Kelly, Manager; John Knott, Manu facturer; James H.

Tno result was, that daylight made visible not only a heavy frost, but actual ice. Gardens suffered terribly, and vegetation of overy description was materially injured. AUGUSTA. Miss Laura Keene has eiosed her engage ment in Augusta and gone to Raleigh. The Augusta Cenitaph Club has raised $3,000, which is now at interest, properly se cured. A correspondent of the Chronicle and Sen tinel, writing from Jefferson, says: The continued damp, cool weather, lias very much retarded the planting operations of tho farmers in this section. There is much com plaint of imperfect stands of corn, and what is np is looking very unpromising. The pres ent cold snap has done but little damage to vegetation more than change its color. Fruit is still uninjured, a sufficiency remaining for all necessary purposes. A much greater area of land has been put in com this season than heretofore, which, together with the unnsnal quantity of oats seeded, will, I am confident, be better for tho people than all cotton—make them more independent and even better their financial affairs. The colored people of this city havo decided to change the day for their contemplated cele bration of the fifteenth amendment, as the time originally selected came in conflict with our memorial ceremonies in honor of tho Con federate deach Tho colored men of tho city have behaved well in this matter, and deservo the commendation of all good citizens.— Chronicle and Sentinel. The Georgia question is by no means ended. Tho bill now goes back to tho House and I as- some that it will not be agreed to there. I not, then a Committee of Conference will bo the next step. What they may agree upon, if anything at all, I will not venture a guess, and I shouldnot recommend any one else to do so. White Congressmen are mighty “onsartin.” There was evidence of this feet again to-day in the House when, after voting to admit Sy- pher, of Louisiana, through a little jugglery the vote was reconsidered, and a few minutes thereafter the same body declared thero had been no legal election. This uncertainty of white men seems also to pervade the Supreme Court, for that dignified body has decided not to disturb the legal tender subject Here we are, all at sea again on a vital question. I am assured, by those who ought to know, that the Georgia bill, as it passed the Senate, will be called up in the House at once and harried forward to the end. To this end aU efforts are now being made. Pablo. OUR WASHINGTON LETTER. cals expressed themselves opposed to suclii step—among others Bob McWhorter, tfe] Speaker of tho Ilonso.

Put not not your trust in Congressmen should be placed over tho National Capitol in letters so plain that all could read and under stand them. One week ago every ono who had paid attention to the subject had reason to believe’tltitt thfiiSenate would pass the Geor gia bill as -reported by tho House Recon struction Committee. But for once a discus sion lasted too long, and the disputants got slightly mixed up in their ideas about affairs in Georgia. A small minority would prefer possibly to keep the State in tutilage until the last unrepentant rebel is laid beneath the sod; majority were disposed to deal justly with the State, but in the maze surrounding the subject they have struck wide of the mark. It is no small victory, however, to have defeated the infamous Biugham-Rimswortli amend ment, and the friends of Georgia in this city regard the vote yesterday morning as a great triumph, and hope for something better in the future. The great interest felt in this case was manifested by tho feet that the gailories and floor of the Senate chamber was well filled with specta tors np to tiie time of adjournment at half past 2 o’clock, a. m., yesterday morning, is very rare to see many spectators present at late an hour of the night. On the floor wrs to be seen Gov. Bullock, Hon. Foatcr Blodgett and . ex-Congressman Prince, of . Georgia, Bingham, Logan, B. F. Butler, and half a dozen more members of the Houso. You will havo observed by th© debate that there was nothing but day work to entertain and keep the members and audience awake. There was a little ripple of humor in the speech Mr. Nye made at Thurman, of Ohio, which awakened some of the sleepers. A few of the members were all the time on the alert Saulsbury was the first to stretch himself out Upon a sofa for nap; he was soon after followed by others until ereiy vacant sofe was occupied by a sleeper, with sentinels to toll them when and how to vote. Others lounged in tho cloak rooms and puffed away vigorously at their ci gars. Only a few participated in the debate. I have called tho defeat of the Bingham Amend ment a triumph. It was a still greater ojjo to force Democratic Senators to vote to place a State under military rule. Where is your consistency now, oh, yc Democracy? The Vote In the . Strong Stencil of Democratic InconiU- tcncy—Josliuu H1U*> Despicable Trick ery ami its Signal Defeat—Silk Worm* and SUM Culture—Tbe Buckeye Excur sion. Washington, April 22, 1870.. The bare feet that the Georgia bill has been sent back from tho Senate to tho House shorn not only of the Bingham amendment, but also of every other feature of tho original bill, ex cept tho title, has already been telegraphed to you. As the bill now sfends, tiie remark of Mr. Sumner is thoroughly applicable to it— “The oldest inhabitant would not know it. The votes taken in the Senate afford an inter esting subject of study for political philoso phers. Hereafter let us drop the time-worn phrase, “uncertain as. the verdict of a petit jury,” and say instead, “doubtful as the decrees of the United States Senate.” In connection with the final vote on the bill, the feet which 6tares us most boldly in the fece is, that the Democratic Senators from Kentucky, Mary- lond, Delaware, New Jersey and California coolly sat in their seats, holding in hand the balance of power, and permitted the passage of an act to subject the entile State again to the reign of the military. Now, there may bo profound dopths of political strategy in this movement, but I apprehend that these gentlemen will hear a sound of gnashing teeth from their Southern allies that will scarcely havo the sound of pleasant music in their ears. Let us hark to the echoes. De moralized Democracy has long sinco given tho country plenty of evidence, that as occasion demands it is ready to go back on the most earnest declarations of its own record. With that organization, inconsistency has come to be tho jewel. Even the verbose Garnett, whose squeaking tones of denunciation have boen so often uttered that they seem to have perpetual reverberation in every nook and comer of tho Senate chamber, went back on his suffering brethren of tho South, and shut his mouth like a clam, when a single mouysyllabio utterance would have stopped the threatened calamity. Let tho Democracy of tho South loam from this action, that after all tho braggart boasting of their protended friends, the aforesaid friends won’t do to tie to at tho time their help is most needeiL Even our friend Revels out-generaled Davis on this occasion, and showed by his vote against the bill that he was willing to give his dear Democratic breth ren in the South a little rest Tho needle print of troth has punctured tho air ball of Joshua Hill’s despicable attempt to insinuate a charge of corrupt work by the friends of good government in Georgia. Of course, there has been no lack of head-lined proclamations in the entire Democratic press North and South, that bribery and corruption had been attempted. We can nbt anticipate that the same journals will be at equal pains taking to ascertain and publish the truth that Los been rovealed by tho investigation that has followed the announcement in open Senate, of the charge referred to. Such a course would not suit their purpose. Nevertheless, it is well known and generally admitted feet here, that before half a dozen witnesses were exam ined, the Chairman of the Judiciary Commit, tee himself gave tho opinion that there was absolutely nothing in it And that this was his candid conclusion, is fully proven by the fact that he omitted in the intensely personaj speech with which he closed tho debate on Tuesday night, to say a word about the charge, aud thus, notwithstanding, that on that very day (Tuesday) his committee had token the testimony of the very men by whom it was ex pected that the charge would be substantiated. Ou Wednesday the investigation was contin ued, and all the evidence taken went to estab lish the feet that the infamous charge was lie made out rf whole cloth. At the present writing there are no indications that the sub ject will be pursued any further. The demand which our friends have made, that the matter sliall bo probed to the bottom, will probably be unheeded, for it is evident to the original instigators oS the calumny, that its sole source will be found in their own corrupt designs. It is not to be wondered at, therefore, that the subject should be quietly permitted to drop still boro. Enough has, however, been developed in private conversations to show that that model of intrigue, Joshua Hill, whose personal am bition is kept perpetually in view, is the author aud iustigator of the whole affair, and people here aro beginning to give him the frill benefit of his dirty work. He has found his level, or rather is fast finding it in the quagmire of disgrace. His power here is fast becoming as it is at home—a played-out institution—for whatever may be said of politicians, one thing is certain, whenever a man is proven a falsi fier, they drop him like a hot potato. Joshua may as well retire to the shades of private life, for if he can’t get np a better lie than this one turns out to be, even the Democratic party will have no use for him. Iphia alone is $1,500,000. In New _ Massachusetts and Connecticut are also : with an aggregate capital of $5,000,000. The above give employment to thousands of operatives. And shall we thus send our mil lions abroad to feed the foreign looms of goods which we can make at home? Shall we spend our millions for raw silk which can be raised here? No. Let tho right course be taken, and Congress make an appropriation to the Bureau of Agriculture to inteoduo* sufficient of these species, in eggs or cocoons, and the result can soon be seen. What a boon is here offered to America by the introduction of these new species; and the utilization of oak leaves, material which has never boen of the least value, has become valuable, nay, precious, and by the medium of an insect All oak trees and hedges, and the once neglected and despised ailanthus, are by a modern change converted into a beautiful and precious silken fabric. i OUR BUCKETE FRIENDS Have feirlj^taken possession of the Capital this week.

At tho meeting of the Academy of Sciences held here last week, an important paper on the subject of Sericulture was read by X*rof,* A. Warren. Ho presents some statistical facts and figures bearing on this subject which are well worthy the attention of agriculturists. Two varieties of these worms, ho says, wm lie found to be the most valuable for introduc tion aud propagation in this country; the Bombyx Yaittn-Mai and Cynthia. The Pro fessor asserts that the product of these worms wi 1 eventually be found equal to that of th© h Tulberry or Japan silk. The former i« an oak feeder and the latter thrives on the alanthos glandulosa. Either of the trees named will thrive naturally in tho climate of this country,.. and tho figures given by Pro! Warren prove conclusively that tho feeding and raising of the worms can bo mado very profitable. Thero is no question that the in troduction of this System would bo most valua ble, and it is to ho hoped therefore that the Committee of Congress .before whom Prof. Warren has appeared by request and given hia views, will consent to aid to a reasonable extent an experiment for the initiation of tho business. The following quotation from his paper will give you some idea of the money valuo of this branch of agriculture. It is indeed surprising that silk culture has been so tardy in the United States when tho subject is of such interest In 1869 tho value of tho silk goods manufactured in tho United States warn nearly $20,000,000, of wbieb to produce this there vm nearly $*000,000 of raw silk imported.

BT JOHN STAIKBACk wVsOX, Datles of Mothers as \'«i The first duty' of a nurse is L> obey the in structions of the medical ailendaiu If he is competent for the duties of his proVssion, he will, as far as possible, in his directions anti cipate every contingency that may a^c, and moke his prescription so as to meet it- \ But it must be confessed that all are not as careful as they should be inS thing of guarding against possible and pro\x- ble contingencies. When this is obviously the case, when tli 1 * action of a remedy, a purgative or emetic for\ instance, is manifestly excessive and pros trating, the nurse may with propriety suspend the medicine until the next visit of the physician. But except in some such cases, the rule holds good that his instructions should be strictly followed. And should it be necessary, from any cause, to suspend the treatment, or make some little modification in it, nothing more should be done; and the suggestions of offi cious friends, who “have seen just such cases” - treated successfully by “just such and such a. remedy,” should be resolutely rejected. When ever a mother or nurse is tried in this way, it should be remembered that many different dis eases have similar symptoms, aud that what is- appropriate in one case, even of the same dis ease, is not by any means always proper in another. The appropriateness of remedies must be judged of in each individual case, and must be determined by the age, sex aud temperament of the patient, the stage of the disease and va rious other circumstances in which a physician alone is capable of deciding. When the treat ment Iris been suspended, the physician should be folly informed of it on his next visit, together with the reasons. After doing this, any sug gestions of the nurse or friends as to the treat ment may be mentioned to the physician, and if he is a sensible man, he will give them proper consideration and act upon them or not, as his judgment may dictate. The second great duty of a nurse is to closely observe and correctly report the symptoms that may arise during the absence of the physician. Mothers enjoy superior facilities os nurses in making observations, aud they should either watch at tho bedside of the sick themselves, or they should have a very attentive nurse, who will faithfully report all the changes in their absence. In another article I shall give some specific directions as to what to observe, and the indications of the different symptoms of disease in children. At present, I will only add that mothers and nurses should train them selves to habits of observation in all cases of sickness, so that they may either avail them selves of the information thus obtained, in tho domestic management of tho case, or be able,, if a physician is in attendance, to give him at full and minute account of everything that has: occurred in the progress of the casew The necessity for such training may be ap preciated when I state that hi a practice of twenty-four years, I have never fbnndi hat one nurse who could observe and! correscify report the effects of remedies and 1 aU the symptoms of a case. In making thefe report mothers should guard against extravagant and exaggerated statements into which they arc likely to be be trayed by the intensity of their feelings, or by a want of a correct knowledge of the precise import of the language they may use. And besides the exaggeration of fear and ignorance thero is another kind of misrepresentation which is sometimes knowingly and willfully practiced for the purpose of deceiving. The t mother desires to awaken greater solicitude on the port of tho physician so that he may give more attention to her little one, or she does: not exactly like the treatment, and would have • it changed, and therefore, prompted by one a— the other of these motives, she is rather ex travagant, if not positively false in her report of the symptoms and the action of the medi*- cine. This is highly improper; for, to say- nothing of the immorality of such conduct, the physician may be induced to change his treatment when no such change is required, and thus the safety and even the life of tV child may bo jeopardized. Let mothers, tir ^ closely observe and correctly report in ever y ease, giving a plain, simp!© and trn*' a f u i ac count, oarefttlly choosing the words - ^Uh which they make their communication*.
