THE JOURNAL. j" D. HOYL, F.DITOR. DAWM>Af, CiBOKGIA : — THURSDAY MukNING, Feb. 2!, 78. - XI "J-J " = —- The National Laundry. The United Spates House of Pep ie entatives seems latterly to have re selvod itself into a gieat national laundiy for the cleansing of a i'el lir en We now tear the the wrapper fiom Our copy of the Congressional Record with something of the eag 'mess of a bad boy over a dime novel with the picture of a big Indian on the #>ver “sculping a fellow.” Aod the great beau'y of it is, that the fights and quarrels are not, usually, between democrats and r publicans, but be tween democrats! and democrats and republicans and republicans, and fam ily'qtiarrelsj are always spicy, you know. Sometime ago, tig Indian Elaine, of Maine, exhumed some very dirty iinen, worn by the state of Massa chusetts, some sixty odd years ago, nod held it high up, to the disgust of the House and the country; and, in the light that ensued, he lifted the scalps of Hawes and Hoar with a •kill that might hove oxcitcd the ad- miration of the in rst skillful hair lifter of the western plains. Quite recently the democrats took a little bout aud exhibited some of Ihcir be drzggled,‘soiled and dilapidatedjundei wear. The West Point military school was up for (he Usual appropriation. Aiken, of South Carolina, intimated that on certain condi ions ho would vote to sell West Point to thejiigheat bidder, or give it back to the stale of New York, whereupon, Abe Hewitt, of New York, intimated that Aiken and the whole South would be glad to aee West Point wijed out because it had educated, thecfficers.tliat whipped the South iu the late war. House, of Tennessee, called Hewitt a demagogue and a slanderer of the wholo South This made Abe so hot that, according to bis own statement, he did not get comfortably cool tor twentv-foui hours. The nest day, however, Hewitt and House ‘ made up,” aud were tiding and cooing like two sucking doves, when the former imprudently poked Aiken in the ribs again Aiken then put little Abe in the furnace again aud took a “welding heat” on him so that we fear be never will get cool again. He accused Abe of selling the presidency to Hayes, and of many other awful things. The ;hol Hewiti seethod and raged, and wss just about to untie a huge bundle of dir'y linen right before the whole house, when acme of hia fiiends prevailed ou him to let it be. Well, we like to s< e these little spats occasionally. They serve_to keep up a vigorous circulation and eliminate vicious bile from the body politic. — We are glad to see something of their old aale helium courage and manhood returning to our Southern Represen tatives. Despite the immense flow ol pale and sallow gush, and moonshine, end mush aud milk, and nonsense we have had on the subject for the past few years, we have still a considerable admiration for old fashioned southern chivalry. A stallwart South Carolin ian, with a chip on bis shoulder, is not, under some circumstances, such a re diculous sight after all, and ii burked at by such small men as Abe Hewitt, it bad better be done at a respectful distance. As to who so'd the presidency, if sold at all, tbs South don’t seem to care, while Hayes behaves himself properly. The abstract fraud is ibe worst fea ture iu the matter, but that ia beyond remedy. All the waters of the ocean can not wash the “damned spot” out; but it may be just a little satisfaction to some people to know that, while Hayes is in the White House at Washington, Anderson is in jail at New Oi leans. They say that the meeting of the State Agricultural Society at Aiuericus last week, was a grand success. There was a large attendance, and several interesting speeches made and essays lead. We felt the ribs of our dele gates altet their return and came to the conclusion they had been weil cared for. W iiat Thet Called a Joke. —The Lafayette (Ind.) Coulter has this ac count of criminal conduct; “Danville Junction, Illinois, Saturday night, was the scene of a most dastardly out rage. Some unknown parties filled a door-lock full of powder find put a slow match to it. Then‘ after knock ing, they ran away. There wero two old ladies living in the house and one of them, hearing the knock, got toth door just as the po der ignited. Trie' door was shattered into fragments, and she was hurled across the room and badly hurt. At last reports she was not expected to livo.” Mr. Riley, one of the proprietors of the* Sumpter EqnibUean, died last week. Mlvcr ll<“..icl. In this issue we publish the full toxt of the silver bill as it passed the Senate on Inst Saturday morning. It will be area that it passed by mote than a two thirds vote, which would seem to insure its repassage “notwithstanding the vrto ol toe President” should be choose to \eto it. Senator II ill was at home at th time the vote was t ke. , bin was pire<l with a Senator who would h ve Voted foi it, thusf in effitet, voting against it. • It is exactly the kind of a t ill that Mr. Hill said in his recent speech.that he would vo'e for, wtth the exception that it makes silver an unlimited legal finder, liom which we pre-ume tba it was this feature of the bid to which lie wa j opposed. Senator Lamar voted Against the bill, although the legislatuie of bis state haddnstructed him to vote for ir These we believe are ;he only south m ern Senators that w>ted against it. Toe bill now goes hack to the House for its concurrence in th amendments. We have no doubt that the House will accept the amendments immedi ately, atid it will go to the President far his signature. If h* vetoes it, it will pass, again by a two thirds v te end become a law. Many who are accustomed to look to legislatures and congresses for re lief in times of distress, are expecting much from this toll. We presume ii will make money more plentiful, both from the operations of the mints >ud tne cringing into circulation gain of the old ostracized silver dollars,but wheth er it will be any easier for a poor man to get hold of it without hard work is still an unse tied question. At any rat?, everybody will very so.m see whether this bill will bring silver up to gold in value or not. Hill and La mar argued that it would not, and this we understand was the cbiel ground of their opposition to it. Ibis is an interesting question that will soon be decided, mean time, let us ai proceed to unsiocking our old silver dollars and reintroduce them in o the. s< ciety of money. We want to see some of those big unexed trade dm lare. Although rot legitimated by the bill just passed,—but still a mon grel arid bastard breed we presume tbeir peculiar fatness will give them ready currency If taunted with their and disinbertance they can go to the mint, —be rebap tized and come out as good as the new dollars with something over. A lied-liotC'iibiuet Itew • Washington special to Cincinnati Enpuirer. It is learned that the discussion in (be Cabinet, To-day ever the Rdtuiri ing Board trials, wnxed so warn that the P.esident was obliged to summa rily end t!-e session to prevent an open rupture. Key, who has hitherto been a very passive factor in the Cabinet discussion, took a very active and positive pait iu to-day’s debate. He took very decided ground in opposi tion to (Sherman and MeCrary These two worthies were eager to interfere at oncp—favored putting down what they were pUased to term mob vio lence in New Orleans, and a resurrec tion of the rebel spirit, by the strong arm of the milli’ary if necessary. Key opposed this doctrine vigorously, and asserted that the affair was a Btate affair, and that neither the President, tho Cabinet nor Congiess ought to in terfeie with ihe course of the law io Louisiana. The discussion was very heated, and may result in a change in the Cabinet. Indeed, Key intimated that if the old policy of Federal inter ference was to be revived, he could not remain in the Cabinet. Washington tpecial to Cincinnati Gazette. The President is reported as having eaid to Dr. Loring of Massachusetts the other day, that these prosecutions were inspired “by t e devillishness of the worst elements of Louisiana poli tics” He added that be should give the sutject instant consideration, and that tie would resort to every legal ex pedient to arrest any further persecu tion of the gentleman referred to, In a conference with several other gentle uten, the President expressed himself with great earnestness, and said that he was willing to use all peaceful means to arrest this injus'ico, but ab solutely refused to entertain the idea of employing force. A telegram was recived to-day from Gov. Ntcholls, disclaiming all sympa thy with the movement against rhe Returning Board, but admitted that lie was powerless to interfere to prevent those who have assumed con trol of the matter from carrying out their purposes. Investigation into the opium eating habits of the tesideutsof the Shenan doah Valley, Va., reveals the fact that in the town of Staunton 100 pounds of the drug are sold every week. Many young women and “ladies of the first families” are slaves ot the habit. A local newspaper says that public attention was first called to the subject from the fact that a woman sent her horses to be sold that she migb* use the money to purchr.se opium. Her agent was unable to sell them, and when tie told her so she fell dead. A public ant'-opiuin meet ing has been held, nnd a petition for a tax on the drug is in circulation.

The world produces, for every pint of honey, a gallon of gall; for every drachm of pleasure a pound of pain; for every inch of mirth an ell of moan; and as ivy twines around the eak, so do misery and misfortune encompass the happiness of man. Felicity—pure, unalloyed felicity —is not a plant of earthly growth ; her guldens are the skies* “Sir 1” exclaimed a long-snffering creditor, whose patience was entirely exhausted: Sir' I have sent you no ess than seventeen bills for this one lot of goods; and what bare you done with tnern?” “Vetoed ’am! Vetoed every last one of ’em!” was the calm reply, as the debtor lit his tifteen-cent c igar and hailed a street car. Tlie Gold nines of fheSoHlli. It has been well known tor many yeaas that through Virginia, Nortli Carolina and Georgia au auriferous belt extended, and that individual , mining has been very profi able, while tor reasous which aro beyoud , explanation every attempt to work un- 1 dei corporate management has been a tailuie. The existence of gold in great abuudauce in these States is a fact ns well known as the existence ot the cotton fields, but the prob etn of get-i ting it from the ores economically is as yet unsolved. Within the present year we shall probably kuow whether t e gold in (he placers of Virginia and other Southern States, and in the quartz v.ins vrtiichsupp y lire placer*,j are worth working or not. Earnest and energetic efforts are now being mde in New York to develop this S-uthem min'ngfieid, and it is proba ble that before the year closes we shall lie able to announce that god operations at the South are a very great fai.ure or a fair success. Il the latter repoit can be made, it wid be a very important fa t to establish iu the world < * finance. - Philadelphia Rail way World. Another homicide is reported fiou. Putnam county, the particulars of which, according to the Eatont-n llcmii sr,|are as follows: “A man named Hold erfi-ld was ki led in this county on >unday last by Mr. Willie Palmar.— It i eems that H'dderfie/d went to Pal ner’s s'ep-father's residence,Mr. Rodgers, in an intoxicated condition -Vlnle there he became very unruly and boisterous, and was asked to leave the hous' but instead of complying atempted to cut Mr Rodgers.

To-day, the benefactors ol the people —the men who devote their lives and energies to the interests of humanity —these are the men whom the world delights to honor, and whom it rewards with piincply fortunes. As an earnest worker for the welfare ot his fellow men, Dr. R. V. Pierce has won their warmest sympathy and esteem. While seeking to be their servant only, he has become a prince among them. Yet the immense fortune lavished upon , him by a generous people he hoards j not, but invests in the erection and j establishment of institutions directly contiibutive to the public good, the people thus realizing, in their liberal patronage, anew meaning of tba beautiful Oriental custom of casting bread upon the waters. Noted in both public and private litefor his unswerv ing integrity aud all those sterling virtues that ennoble manhood, Dr Pierce ranks high among those few men, whose names the Empire State is justly proud to inscribe upon her roll of honor. Ambitious, yet moved by au ambition strictly amenable to the most discriminative and well balanced judgment, his future career promises to be one of unparalleled activity and usefulness, ably sup plementing the work he has alieady accomplished, by a life at once noble in effort. enviable in its grand results.” While Dr Pierce’s genius and energy have won for him so enviable a posi tion on tho records of a nation, having been elected Senator by an overwhelm ing majority, his jusjly celebrated Household Remedies have gained for him a yet more desirable place in the hearts of a grateful people.
