Congress meets next Monday. Aleck Stephens has been sick. Tennessee, Georgia and South Ca rolina had hangings last Friday. Since Gen. Grant ha3 commenced talking he has injured his popularity. A railroad collision on the Central last week resulted in four or five death. Guileau’s case will furnish the debating societies of the land with a new theme f>r discussion, and Ilamlel will get a rest. From a careful perusal of the col umns of the Franklin County Register of last week, we have decided that Carnesville is muddy. His fraudulency, Rutherford B Ilaycs, is charged with carrying ofi from the White House a croquet set that belonged to the Government. The increase in trade and business in New York City is so great fliat in some streets, at. certain hours in the day, it is almost impossible to get along. Director-General 11. I. Kimball, of the Cotton Exposition, has been ban queting so much that it made him nick. lie is now able to be out, but is restricted in his diet. President Arthur's sister, who will preside at the White House, once taught in a private family near Edg field, *S. C. The school girls can use this as an illustration in their graduat ing essays next summer. Of the 95,000 votes cast for the Re adjuster ticket in Virginia, 71,000 were Republican and mostly negro. This is not a bad showing for the Democrats, and we cannot see why they cannot overcome it in the next election. The new Secretary of the Treasury (Folger) promises that he will adopt an aggressive policy in the manage ment of the Government finances, and proposes to reduce the public debt in every instance where it can be legally accomplished. The last attempt to assassinate the Czar of Russia was to drop a large quantity of explosives into the Palace yard by means of a balloon. The plot was discovered before it could be put into execution. Theclamorof the fort3 r -five thousand disfranchised American citizens in Rhode Island has induced the oli garchy, which rules that State, to con sider a proposition to let “ honorably discharged Union soldiers” vote at elections. In Rhode Island hundreds of ex-soldiers are denied the ballot. The popular thing for you to do when you go to the Exposition is to pick enough coltou from some of the patches ou the grounds and have a suit of clothes made out of it. We forgot to mention that it is neces-ar\ for you to be one of the “ big ikes” in order to be allowed such favors. The Confederate bond speculation has collapsed. Those who have been in the ring claim that the}' expect to get the Confederate States to pay the debt, and that they are not basing their hopes on the rumored balance in the Rank of England due the Confederate Government, and the said balance is said to be altogether mythical. Our readers will remember that one of the first bills introduced into Con gress by the Hon. Emory Speer, of this District, was to prohibit the army bands from playing on Sunday. The text of the bill was the occasion of much comment at the time, and was spoken of during the last campaign. We never did learn what its fate was in the House of Representatives, but know that it never was made a law. The end, however, has been accom plished by the War Department, as they have recently ordered that the army hands should not be required to play on the Sabbath. We presume that the credit is due Mr. Speer. This country is growing rich so fast that the question of reduction of the j taxes on imports and in the Internal Revenue Department will be one of the most, important measures before Congress when it meets next week.! The treasury DepaAment at Wash j ington is opposed to any reduction, j because the reduction will lessen the opportunities for stealage, &c. Mr. Judah P. Benjamin, who was the rebel Secretary of State when the Confederate bonds were issue 1. says there is no money ou deposit in Eng land or elsewhere to the credit of the Confederate States, ami the bombs that! are being extensively bought up in this country can have no possible value. The r c is little reason to doubt the truth of Mr. Benjamin’s statement. The Treasury girl who. several vears ago, married a United States Senator, A having a hard time of it. She is the defendant in a divorce suit from her husband, ex Senator CluLtiancy, and the charges set forth against her are anything hut nice. The litigation has I evidently affected her mind, as she was ! overhauled one night last week wander j ing about the streets of Washington, j clothed only in the thin drapery of the ! night. The Exposition is like an almanac —eaeli day is named from some spe cial feature of that particular day. There have been so many days that they are about out of names. Their latest is “dog days.” This name has not been suggested by the fuel that it is unhealthy to go in swimming in the beautiful lakes, fountains or the noble river that runs through the Exposition grounds (according to the pictures), hut owing to the fact that the mana gers have decided to have a dog show, which promises to be interesting. On that da}’ there will be on exhibition an array of dogs from all over the Union. Duggar is canvassing the mountain ounties and is a regular attendant at the several Courts, nursing his Con-, gressional aspirations. The Speer papers seem much disgruntled because the mountain war horse has concluded to run. Don’t go back on your record now ; you have been fighting conven tions and claiming the right of ever}' man in the district to run. But then it makes a difference as to whose ox is gored. If we are to have a scrub race we are in favor of running a man in every county. Let’s have some thing interesting and lively.—Gwin nett Herald. A bill to establish Postal Savings Banks will be brought to the attention of Congress at its approaching session. The bill provides that every Post Office that pays a compensation of $500.00 per annum shall be designated as a place where, under proper regulations, the United States will receive deposits of any sura and pay two per cent, in terest. The bill provides for every feature of the case that may arise in the management of the matter, so that, any person can deposit or withdraw his money at will, just as in a first class Savings Bank. The measure will be a good one, and should have the support of the Southern Congress men. If adopted it will tend to make our people more saving by providing them a safe deposit for their money. The interest that has been mani lested by the American people in providing for tHe lamily of President Garfield has aroused the jealousy of the widow of Abraham Lincoln. Site thinks that something more should be done for her, and to that end some of her over-officious friends have publish ed to the world the statement that she wa3 in actual want. An investigation of the matter showed tha! she had a regular income of over six thousand dollars a year—enough for any woman without a family. We are glad to be able to state that her relatives had nothing to do with the publication of the statement, and regret that it has been made public, since limy feel competent to take care of her in any event. Tiie programme for the memoria' services over the late President Gar field has been nearly arranged, and will be exceedingly simple. Eulogistic addresses will he delivered in the two houses of Congress by two Represent a tives and two Senators. Senator Sherman will probably he one of the Senators and Randolph Tucker one of the Representatives. Mrs. Harrison Glazier, at present in the interior department, who is from Bedford, Cuyahoga county, Ohio, and agraduate of Iliram college, is writing a poem to be read on that occasion in the House by lion. A. 11. Pettibone, of Tennessee, a former Cuyahoga county man and a graduateoflliram. Appropriate music will be interspersed and an adjourn ment out of respect to the memory of the late President will be taken. The memorial exercises will take place as soon after the organization of the house as possible. It is asserted, on good authority, that the Republicans propose to jump the lion. David Davis out of the chair as President of the Senate as soon as that body meets. While Senator Davis claimed to be independent of party, yet, when he found that the Republican Senators would take him as their man for President pro tempore of the Senate rather than Mr. Bayard, he flopped over at once to the Republican side. Democratic Senators don’t admire his style of Independeiitioin. and are of the opinion that they can d.>ju->t about as well under a straight out Republican, so when the Senate meets they have intimated to the Republicans that they can bounce Davis out and put in Anthony, of Rhode Island. We think ourselves that it would be a good idea. At. any rate the Democrats would lose nothing, and at the same time admin ister a go-i 1 levs-.n to one who wa< a friend as long as his own ambitious ends could be furthered. 11 may serve as a valuable lesson to others that we lin'e in our mind's eye. “ 11. W. G.” has a long and inter e.sting article in the Atlanta Constitu tion upon the future statesmen of Georgia. The article speculates upon the men who will step into the shoes of our present public men when they retire from the conflict. In speaking of Congressional honors and aspira tions in this District, he lets out as follows: ,- It is useless to talk of overriding these men or the class they represent. They are entitled to the honors that were delayed while they were in the field fighting the battles of the State —and more than this, they arc quite strong enough to maintain themselves. That they will win and hold the bulk of the offices worth struggling over for the next several years, cannot be doubted—except where some bold, brilliant fellow like Speer, with neither fear nor reverence, breaks through the lines and seizes the temple of the faithful. And even now. they say that Henry Carlton is preparing to assault this audacious intruder—in winch case, Speer may gird up his loins for the severest strug gle that he has yet had.’’ Walton News: “Running away seems to be a growing evil in Walton. Every night or two some debtor steps out. and the merchant starts in hot pursuit. A Monroe merchant took an expen iv*t i of some two hundred miles last week in search of a man who had jus' skipped the county. He failed to find his man.” Jlcio Jiilix’ctiscmciits.
