** The Education of the Heero.”
<‘Its Rise, Progress and Present
Status.”
Tie foregoing is the title of an address
delivered before the National Educational
Association at its late meeting at Chau
tauqua, New York, by Gustavos J. Orr,
L. L. D., our State School Commissioner.
If Gen. Toombs ever made the prophe
cy “that he would one day call the roll of
his slaves from Bunker Hill Monument,”
Its disappointment has long since been
-settled; but if at the time it was said to
have been uttered, someone had prophe
sied that in I860 a representative South
erner would stand before an audience of
educators at the North to vindicate the
educative influences of slavery, to main
tain the sincerity of Southern people, and
to pledge himself and his section to the
promotion of educationnmong the colored
races, such prediction would have been
regarded as chimerical. The address be
fore us realizes the complete fulfillment of
such a prophecy.
A brief outline of the address is as fol
lows : After expressing the belief that the
time is now come when the people of
both sections are prepared to discuss this
subject in candor, he advances the propo
sition that slavery was the divinely ap
pointed tutillage by which the negroes
were to be brought from the barbarism of
Africa to a higher plane of civilization.
He shows that slavery in the Sontb was a -
servitude with many modifications, by
proving that the right of personal security
was guaranteed to the slave by the law,
that the right of personal liberty and . «—«■—
theory, were, in fact, allowed to - - - -
be exercised to a very great
The Brown-Westmoreland Quarrel.
Apropos of the duel, which was only
arrested by a bond of $25,000 from Mr.
Brown, and. one of $5,000 from Jlr.
Westmoreland, to keep the peace, the
former being even prohibited from leav
ing the State for a hostile encounter, we
print, from the Constitution, the letters
of the principals which brought ab out the
difficulty:
DR. WESTMORELAND TO MR. BROWN.
“Sir: It was said that Grady, the man
of ‘facts,’ acted as Governor in the absence
or Colquitt, but a change has evidently
been made. Joseph E. Brown and
sou seem to officiate for the last few days.
Business appears to be very brisk, too.
The regular Governor’s usher is quite
busy admitting visitors, and the cha-ac-
ter of business transacted can be interred
from the constant ingress and egress of
members of the Republican convention
while in session, and the reports of lead
ing colored men of the city who are in
vited to visit the executive office daily
since the adjournment ot the convention.
Brown, Jr., it seems, was a necessary sec
retary to the acting executive, as the
number of checks or amount of cash to
be paid out required more labor than
one man could perform, together with
the planning and contracting incumbeut
upon him.
The object is evidently to contract for,
instruct and pay men to electioneer and
vote for Colquitt for Governor, and i.legis
lators favorable to Brown. No very large
amount is known to have been paid to
one man—fifty dollars being the largest
reported—but the aggregate will make a
considerable sum, including free tickets,
which, we learn, all the delegates receiv
ed from the said acting Governor aud his
secretary.
Now, we would advise the citizens of
Georgia who have business with the Gov
ernor of this State to find out from the
newspapers where he is to make his next
to a very great ex
tent. The familiar intercourse of white
and black, the patriarchal nature of the
master’s government,-the refining influ
ences of daily household association with
superiors, the kindly ministrations of the
mistress, especially in times of sickness;
the rjuasi parental authority assumed by
the old nurse,cr the old “uncle;” the
fact that children of both races were play
mates, though not on an equal footing,
and, lastly, the work of Christian churches
among the colored people—all these are
pointed out, with others, as strong educa
tive influences upon the negroes.
The result of these influences are shown
in the fact that many of them became
skilled laborers; almost all were industri
ous (far more so than those who have
grown under the new regime); they were
peaceable and orderly during the war,aud
very many of them exhibited genuine evi
dences of the impress of religion upon
their characters.
Coming to the new order of things, the
speaker directed attention to the ready
acceptance, by the whites, of the provis
ions in the reconstruction constitutions,
for the education of the colored people
by the States. When new constitutions
have been adopted in States where the
white constituencies have been in power,
similar provisions have been incorpora
ted. “This marks the era of the admis
sion of the negro, with the free consentof
the white race, to the full rights of citi
zenship, including the right to free edu
cation.”
The address concludes with the statis
tics of the expenditures of different South
ern States for this purpose; aud with the
pledge which Dr. Orr felt authorized to
make for Georgia, aud for the South, that
to bring about the education of the negro
“we will do all that in us lies.”
We hail as the dawning of a better day,
the time when the sentiments of this ad
dress could be uttered before a Northern
audience, with full confidence in their
candid appreciation. The Northern peo
ple will yet be able to do justice to South
ern slavery. They will learn that a servi
tude which expressed itself in such swings
as the pathetic “Massa's in the cold, cold
ground,” and others of similar strain,
could not have been a cruel oppression.
They will find a truth of the same sort in
the fact, that whenever a negro is in trou
ble of any sort now, he goes to bis former
master as Ids best friend.
We believe that our people are prepared
to admit that we committed a grievous mis
take, just after the war, in not making
efforts to retain the confidence and friend
ship of the newly emancipated race. If
such efforts had been made, if we had
shown the same zeal in convincing them
that we were their friends, that the car
pet-baggers exhibited in proving, or tryiug
to prove, that we were their enemies, we
would have been spared the numberless
evils of Radical misrule, and the negroes
would have been saved from the delu
sions of the Freedmeu’s Savings bank, “the
forty acres aud the mule.”
Happily, this calamity is “overpast,”
and the whites now see that the intellec
tual and moral elevation of the negro, is
alike their interest and their dutv, aud
the colored people realize that their true
and best interests are allied with those of
the white people among whom they live.
In view of the possibility (we hope
not probability) of the existence of
two political parties among the white
people of the South, the education of
the negro is a public necessity. Igno
rance is the favorite sphere of the dema
gogue; over it he wields a terrible power.
Our people have often been astonished at
the fact that in elections between Demo
cratic and Republican parties, the negro
vote has been unpnrchasable. This is a
favorable sign, and justifies the hope that
intelligence will put our colored citizens
beyond the reach and influence of dema-
gogism and deception.
One other striking fact exhibited by
the negroes, is their teachableness. Their
desire for knowledge, and their interest in
the education of their children, havG been
surprising.
They make to us the pathetic appeal for
“ more light,” and we are under the duty
of Intellectual charity towards them.
Not only by organized schools should
we aid their progress, bpt In every house
hold the white members should seek to
raise the mental standard of their ser
vants ; every employer should seek to do
the same among his colored employes;
every preacher and public speaker should
go before them, as often as opportunity
permits, in their assemblies.
Dr. Orris address is ably written, deep
ly suggestive, truly patriotic, and should
be widely read.
Flaisted Probably Elected.—A
Boston telegram says*tbe latest returns
received at the Democratic headquarters
from 406 towns give Plaisted 13,403, and
Davis 73,542. The towns to hear from
gave in 1670 a Fusion majority of 176.
The returns will give Plaisted a plurality
of 113, if the towns to be heard from vote
as last year. Doubtless this is correct.

J. G. Westmoreland.
To this publication Mr. Brown replied
the next day as follows:
JULIUS L. BROWN TO DR. J. O. WEST
MORELAND.
“Sir: At the head of the fourth col
umn on the second page of your paper,
dated September 12, 1680, is an article
headed “Bargain and Sale—The office of
the Governor is defamed and the people
disgraced by its use by Joe Brown to buy
up negro votes,” and signed “J. G. West
moreland.”
The writer charges that Joseph E.
Brown arid son used Governor Colquitt’s
office while the Republicau convention
was in session, and since, to purchase col
ored voters, and that the sou drew checks
or paid out the cash for that purpose, etc.
As I am the only one of my father's sous
who ever drew a check in his name, or
who ever at any time had authority to do
so, I conclude tiiat he alludes to me as the
son of Joseph E. Brown mentioned in
his article.
In reference to said article, I have to
say that it contains more lies to the square
inch than I ever before saw in au article
signed by J. G. Westmoreland. As an ev
idence of it, I state that I was not in the
State Capitol during the whole time that
the said convention was in session; aud
further, that I have not been in Governor
Colquitt’s office but twice since the Demo
cratic convention adjourned early
August, and those times were as follows:
On the 25th of August I called at Govern
or Colquitt’s office upon his invitation to
converse with him about taking a young
friend of bis into my office. I was also
there on the 11th of September, last Sat
urday, to examine some papers of the file
which I desired to see. Now, I defy J. G.
Westmoreland to make any proof to the
contrary.
I never drew a check in my life, either
in my father’s name or in my own, in
Governor Colquitt's office or elsewhere,
to pay for a colored vote or any other vote
or to influence one, nor did I ever use
any cash or any free ticket or any other
thing or things of value for anysucli pur
pose, and I defy J. G. Westmoreland to
prove to the contrary.
I have not sought public office, and
have never been an active politician, and
am not, therefore, a target for lying poli
ticians to aim their shots at. Ihavebeen
attempting quietly to attend to my own
private business, and that committed to
me by my clients, and by the members of
the Young Men’s.library association, and
I do not know why I should have been
made a subject of J. G. Westmoreland’s
malice. I pronounce his statements
willfully and infamously false and mali
cious. Julius L. Brown.”
More Concerning the Brown-West*
moreland Emhroelio.
The Atlanta papers devote many col
umns to the publication of the volumin
ous details of the proposed duel between
Mr. Julius Brown and Dr. Westmore
land. To judge from the acfimonlous
tone of the correspondence throughout,
and the failure of all attempts at media
tion, there is but a slender hope for any
peaceable adjustment of the difficulty
hereafter. Among the statements given
to the public relating to this unfortunate
quarrel is the following by Senator Hill:
B. H. Hill & Son, Attorneys at
Law, Atlanta, Ga., September 20,
I860.—Editors Constitution: I see some
disposition to criticise Justice Tanner for
inserting in the bond exacted of Mr.
Brown, a provision not to leave the State
for the purpose of breaking the bond, etc.,
and also some information that this pro
vision was inserted by the consent or at
ilie suggestion of Mr. Brown himself. I
shall leave the State to-day and will be
'absent several weeks. I now make this
brief statement and leave it with you for
publication if vou deem it proper to do so:
1. Justice Tanner inserted the provi
sion alluded to at my instance, on my ad
vice, and I am responsible for it. With
the facts before him he did right. It wa3
his duty to require such a bond as would
effectually prevent the threatened hostile
meeting. A man who is under arrest,
charged with intent to break the peace by
a hostile meeting with another citizen of
this State, and who procures his release
Irom such arrest by a solemn pledge un
der seal not to prosecute such intent for a
hostile meeting either in or out of the
State, has no right to use the freedom
thus procured for the express purpose of
seeking such hostile meeting either in or
out of the State. This is sound law as
(veil as good morals, and can be main
tained by argument and on authority.
» 2. I have been the personal friend of Dr.
Westmoreland for a quarter of a century.
There is no man whose honor I would
more sacredly guard. He is a true man
and a good citizen, and does what he be
lieves to be right. If in this matter I al
lowed myself to be partial at all, it would
be to him. But when he gave his solemn
pledge under bond to his'State and to
every citizen of bis State, to • keep the
peace toward Julius L. Brown, anil theu
sought in any manner, or at any place to
break that peace with Mr. Brown, he did
what he himself will earnestly condemn
and deeply regret in bis cooler moments.
3. It was also at my instance that Mr.
Brown was required to give a bond for
the large sum of twenty-five thousand
dollars. This was done becanso it wa3
deomed necessary to secure , compliance
with the obligation to abandon the pur
pose of a hostile meeting. A lighter
bond had failed to secure this from Dr.
Westmoreland, and a harsher bond-was
therefore required of Mr. Brown.
Maine Election.
Boston, Sept. 20.—Senator Blaine, who
is in this city, sent the following telegram
to Hon. Marshall Jewell to-day;
Boston, Sept. 20.—I left Maine on Friday
last. Intelligence reaches me here to-day
indicating that the telegrapltic votes
published by the assoc’ated press were
some cases modified by the clerks’ re
turns as they reached the office ot Secre
tary of State, where they are open to the
inspection of the public. These modifica
tions are of such character as to render
the contest Between Davis and Plaisted
extremely close, possibly requiring official
returns to determine which is elected.
Official returns cannot be counted or even
opened until the meeting of the Legisla
ture in January. The cry of fraud in the
count, as put forth by Mr. Chairman Bar-
num, is sufficiently answered by the fact
that both parties hi Maine have recourse
to precisely the same authority for their
figures—first, telegrams of the associated
press, and, second, the clerks’ returns
from the several towns. The agent of the
associated press at Portland, Mr. Stephen
Berry, is implicitly trusted by all parties,
and is incapable of willful misstatement or
evasion, llis experience in summarizing
election returns is as long and as varied as
tiiat of any man in the country. Up to
this hour there is not a particle of dispute
between the parties in Maine touching the
returns from a single town. The on
ly possible opportunity for fraud
In the election returns under our laws
is in the French plantations of Aroostook,
where the assessors sign returns expressed
in a language with which they are entirely
unacquainted. The Democratic English-
speaking agent who makes out returns has
abundant opportunity for misstating facts
I do not know it, but I do assert and ]
do know that frauds have been committed
there in past years by Democratic agents,
and I repeat that nowhere else in Maine
is fraud practicable. The fraud of last
year was not in the returns at all, but
consisted wholly in Gov. Garcelon aud
his council rejecting returns that were
honestly and regularly made.
Mr. Chairman Banium is also in palpa
ble error when he assumes that the elec-
ion returns should he at Augusta the day
after the election. He forgets that Maine
is larger in territory than the other five
New England States put together, aud
that the most extreme southwestern town
in Maine is nearer to any point in the
State of Delaware—nearer, indeed, to the
city of Baltimore, than it is to the
French plantations on the Upper St.
Johns by any practicable route. In this
statement I speak of actual distance. In
point of time the comparison would
be still more striking and significant, for a
man can go from Augusta to Chicago as
quickly as he can go from Augusta to
Fort Kent.
The talk of Bamum shout the Fusion-
ists of Maine being counted out, is mere
rant. There is not a Democrat or Green-
backer in Maine who bus the slightest fear
of such a result. The late Gov. Clifford,
of Massachusetts, used to boast that the
Whig party was the only one then in ex
istence that would count itself oat oi
power, and surrender to its opponents on
an adverse majority of one vote, alluding
to the case of Marcus Morton, as governor.
The Republicans of Maine, when beaten
in 1878, could have retained power
on two or three technical points in the
count. Those who planned the Garcelon
count out of a year later, expected the
Republicans to do it, and suggested a tear
of it, but there was not a single member
of the party that ever harbored such
thought. If Governor Plaisted shall have
a single vote more than Governor Davis,
tiie executive chair of Maine for the next
two years is as well assured to 1dm as
though liis majority were ten thousand.
[Signed) J. G. Blaine.
New York, Sept. 21.—A dispatch was
received at the headquarters of the Dem
ocratic National Committee last night,
from Fort Kent, Maine, giving Plaisted
ICO majority—making his majority in 497
towns 174. Five towns still to be heard
from which gave, in 1876, Talbot (Deni.)
62, and Conner (Rep.) 27.
Portland, Sept. 21—Returns of all
but one town, Slieridan, have been re
ceived, giving a plurality of 197 for Da
vis—less 20, winch Sheridan gave for
Fusion last year; but partial comparison
made with the returns to the Secretary of
Stale, shows errors enough in the tele
graphic returns to give a clean plurality
to Plaisted. These returns will have to
be compared with the returns to the Sec
retary of State, in order to establish their
correctness, and as soon as the Secretary
is beard from, the comparison will be tel-
graphed.
Boston, Sept. 21.—The Journal, of
Augusta, Maine, telegraphs a statement
of the vote by counties, aud says there
are 375 scattering vote3, and that Davis
has 100 over Plaisted. Several towns and
plantations are yet to be heard from. Be
sides the uncertainty about the vote of
the towns yet to be received and the prob
able inaccuracy of some of the figures al
ready given, there is also a question about
the inaccuracies which appear in the re
turns, all of which, with tho close vote,
render the result so doubtful that it can
only be determined by au official canvass
of the returns at the opening of the Legis
lature.
Pobtland, Sept. 21.—Errors having
been fonnd in telegraphic returns to the
net amount of 1-5 of 1 per cent, copies of
official returns have been carefully footed
aud compared with footings received from
Augusta. An error is found of 100 in the
footing of Penobscot county. Seven hack
towns are added, and the final result is,
Davis 73,640, Plaisted 73,814; Flaisted’s
plurality, 174.
The scattering votes were not on sheets
received here, but Augusta footings, 875,
is probably correct. This result must
be very nearly correct, although some
towns are still not official. The Demo
cratic State committee, although their ta
bles are not complete, agree that they
will come out very near this. Although
these figures are from official returns, au
official canvass of them is not made until
the Legislature metis in January, aud on
ly that body takes cognizance ot errors
in them. The plurality amendment is
carried by a large majority.
BELAYED EDITORIAL NOTES
or a Brief Trip to Tennessee-—The
Finest Country Sent In the South.
Daring his'recent visit to Nashville, the
writer, a guest of that .prince of clever fel
lows and genial journalist,'-Mr. S.
Cunningham, rode wit]} him to the
CHEATHAM RESIDENCE GROUNDS,
situated about three miles from the State
house, in the rear of Vanderbilt Universi
ty-
There is a romantic history -connected
with this princely establishment. The
present mistress of the domain, which
might well put to the blush the palace
and Ducal preserves of any of the petty
German suzerains, was tho daughter of
an humble Presbyterian minister, whose
circumstances were so much reduced that
his child was forced to resort to her needle
to eke out a daily support. To say tiiat
she was simply beautiful, would fail far
short of describing this lovely girl.
Though petite it stature, she was a very
sylph in form, and possessed of attrac
tions both of mind aud physique rarely
equalled.
It was while thus contentedly plying
her modest vocation that the fair maiden
attracted the attention of Mr. Franklin.
A MILLIONAIRE PLANTER,
whose broad acres aud numerous estates
in Louisiana, Mississippi and elsewhere
had made him famous,' even during the
palmy days of the slavery regime. At
once he was a captive at her feet, suing
with the devotion of a belted knight of
old for her hand and heart. Report has
it that the amorous swain and master of
a thousand bondsmen, was so delighted
when his suit proved successful that he
forthwith settled upon hjs inamorata i
magnificent estate and superb allowance.
Together they lived for a number of
years, their union blessed with several
children, none of whom, however, sur
vive. At length the rich planter himself,
was gathered to his fathers, and his beau
teous helpmeet left a widow. But the
annealing hand of time gradually as
suaged her sorrow, and when the
HANDSOME AND ACCOMPLISHED ACKLEN
knelt at her feet and plead his cause, she
first listened, then loved, and finally yield
ed to his importunities.
Some have been so ill-natured as to say
that her first marriage was a union de
convenance, and her second a love match.
But there is no evidence to sustain these
assertions. In due time the charming
widow gave her hand to Mr. Acklen, who
is the father of
HON. JOSEPH ACKLEN, M. C.
from Louisiana, and tiiat gentleman, who
was possessed of exquisite taste, immedi
ately set about beautifying and adorning,
with all the appliances wealth can afford,
their beautiful summer retreat near Nash
ville. The winters were spent in the soft
atmosphere of Louisiana, surrounded by
sunny cotton plantations and waving fields
of sugar cane. But when the days length
ened and the sun began to mount upward
to the zenith, tho happy pair aud the little
ones that were voucliafed to them always
returned gladly to the refreshing shades
of their Tennessee home.
And indeed, by the legerdemain of ex
quisite taste, lavish expenditure and
skillful experts, they had succeeded m
converting what is naturally a splendid
panoramic landscape, into a perfect vision
of loveliness.
After the lapse of additional years,
however, agaiu the remorseless angel of
death, with his sharp scythe, smote the
husband and father of the household,
aud Mrs. Acklen was •
AGAIN A WIDOW.
Several children, liowevor, the pledges
of their union, remain to comfort the
stricken mother. One of them, the mem
ber in Congress»from Louisiana, is again
a candidate for re-election, and another,
the lovely and graceful Miss Pauline,
we were delighted to meet.
Again the wings of “Old Time” went
circling on, softening sad memories, cica
trizing gaping wounds, openiug up new
scenes and acquaintances, and gradually
bridging the chasms created in the past.
FOR THE THIRD TIME
the widow, scarcely less lovely than in
tho heyday of her girlhood, and still a star
in the fashionable world, was loved and
wooed by one every way worthy—her
present husband, Dr. W. A. Cheatham.
The Doctor is a fine specimen of the cul
tivated gentleman, aud assisted his wife,
still well preserved, elegantly dressed
and handsome, in doing tho honors of
their magnificent establishment.
It was a lovely autumnal afternoon,when
the skies were cloadiess, the air bracing,
and ail nature in her best attire, that, with
Cunningham as our guide and cicerone
we entered the spacious grounds of Dr.
Cheatham. These embrace near a hun
dred acres, all artistically laid out In
smooth drives and wiuding paths, tho in
tervals between covered with green grass
neatly shaven, and interspersed with rare
flowers aud beautiful plants and shrub
bery. A lofty observatory forms a fitting
central ornament to the scene, and nu
merous and extensive «
CONSERVATORIES
stocked with the rarest plants and flowers,
covering the whole field of native aDd ex
otic productions, exhaled their fragrance
and charmed the cy6 of the visitors. Here
and there the plash of fountains too was
heard, and gold fish disported in the clear
waters of numerous reservoirs and lake
lets. But our time was short, and
able to pause but a brief season amid
these silvan scenes, we ontered the pala
tial mansion of the proprietor and rang

An Editor Shot
New York, September 20.—A special
from Maryville, Mo., gives the following
particulars of the shooting of P. H. Talbot,
editor and proprietor of the Greenback
Standard, of that city: The Doctor was
last seen in Maryville on Saturday even
ing at six o’clock, after which hour he de-
larled for his home. He reached his
tome safely, and there found a neighbor
fanner waiting for him to go to see a sick
child. This he did, returning home at
about nine o’clock. According to the
statement of his son, Albert, a young man
aged twenty-four, after coming home his
father went into the chamber where his
mother was lying on the bed, and after
taking his coat and vest off, sat down on
the bed.
Albert says that ho was at this time sit
ting by a window readiug, with his annt
resting on the window. At the moment
his fattier had his hand up to liis side, aud
the bullet shot from outside came whis
tling iiito the room, shattering the pauo of
glass and striking his father, first cutting
off two of his fingers and then passing into
and entirely through his side, grazing the
leg of Mrs. Talbot and lodging in the wall
beyond. Immediately upon being shot,
the Doctor sprang to the Uoor and cried,
“Murder! I’m shot,” and tried to reach
a gun that was standing in the room. He
could not do so, and fell hack on a bed.
The son then grasped the gun and went
to the door, where ho heard hurried foot
steps passing by the front of the house. He
opened the door and saw a retreating
lonn at which he fired, hut without effect.
This is ail the family appear to know
about the matter, and uo clue to the per
petrator of the horrible crime is knoivn.
Dr. Talbot was a Greenback speaker and
writer of considerable prominence, and
during the pas’ two months has been ed
iting the Greenback Standard, which he
has owned for a year past. Thv- de
ceased leaves a wife and a largo family
of children. His death has cast a gloom
orertlie entire community, and no efiort
Kill be spared to bring the perpetrator of
the deed to speody justice.
It’s generally easy to tell the girls who
have participated in engagements. Their
acos show traces of powder.

a-piatform, affirming the principles of the
party as set forth in the platform adopted
by the national convention at Chicago:
declaring that the government should
issue and control the volume of the
money of the people; favoring the use of
the specie reserve of the treasury in the
payment of bonds; denouncing
the national banks as impoverishers of the
country; demanding that soldiers shall
receive as good a dollar as bondholders
opposing the increase of the army, aud
the granting of public lands to railroads
insisting on the rigid enforcement of ilie
eight-hour law, and protesting against all
monopolization of laud. The resolutions
were adopted.
The sentiment of the convention, as ex
pressed in the debate on the nomination of
new members of the State Central Com
mittee, was overwhelmingly against any
thing like fusion with the Democrats, but
a resolution approving the action of Solon
Chase and his followers in nominating a
straight Greenback ticket in Maine, was
laid on the table by a vote of 65 to 3. A
resolution condemning the action of Gen,
Butler in seceding frem the Greenback
party, was voted down by a small major
ity. The convention theu adjourned.
A Disabled Crew.
Key West, Fla., September 22.—The
American bark Caribon, from Aspiuwal
anchored oil' tho Toi tugas on the 14lii
inst. in distress, her captain and two men
having died at sea, and all hands being
sii k except the mate. The pilots put
representatives of tho weavers recom
mend that the whole of the funds belong
ing to local associations, amounting to the
sum of Jt'12,000, he amalgamated and
placed at the disposal of tho wages com
mittee [o support tho Accrington strikers,
If this Is agreed to, the strike will proba
bly not be averted. The feeling in Ac
crington is reported to be vory determined
on both sides.
At a meeting of operatives at Burnley
yesterday there was some opposition man
ifested to the strike, aud a motion to con
tribute a levy of three pence per loom to
support the strike was ultimately rejected
in favor of a levy of two pence per loom.
London, Sept. 22.—A dispatch says
that M. Carnot has accepted the ministry
of public works, that Marquis DeNoailies
definitely declined the ministry of for
eign affairs, and that post has been offered
to Admiral Janses, whose reply is anxious
ly expected. The health of Admiral
Dupal is so bad tiiat he cannot accept tho
ministry of marine.
The steamer Teutonia, Liverpool for
New Orleans, took oat 150 British agri
culturists for Texas.
London, Sept. 22.—A Paris dispatch to
the Times says: “Nothing is more strik
ing than the almost perfect unanimity
with-which the French press accuses M.
Gambetta of having caused the present
crisis, and having thus disturbed the na
tional tranquillity, solely because M. De-
Freycinet, iu his Moutaubau speech, ven
tured to exhibit himself as a far-sighted
man. With tho exception of two or
three papers,the whole press protests vehe
mently against this imperative interfer
ence by an irresponsible person, and
conies to the conclusion that the real and
only possible solution of tho question is
that M. Gambetta shall take the pre
miership. It would be a great mistake to
attribute this view only to M. Gambetta’s
adversaries—his nearest friends regard it
as a necessity.”
London, Sept. 22.—A dispatch from
Ragiisa to the Manchester Guardian says
the foreign official reports from Scutari
represent that the Turkish troops near
that place are dying with lever at the rate
of 200 daily.
A ilUpatcli from Corfu to tho Manches
ter Guardian says a decree has been signed
calling out the Greek reserves.
Paris, Sept. 22—A telegram from Ua
gusa says the Montenegrin commandant
at Podgoritza has imprisoned the principal
Mohammedau inhabitants. This has great
ly irritated the Albanians, and increases
the difficulty of surrendering Dulcigno.
London, Sept. 22.— The Manchester
Guardian, in its commercial article this
morning, says: “ Business throughout the
market has been very quiet—almost lan
guid. Ou the whole, the tendency lias
oeen rather downward, bat uo marked
pressure to soli was observable. The
slackness was, to a considerable extent,
due to the fall in the cotton market, and
tlio consequent hope of buyers that they
will be able to do a little better by con
tinuing to hold off, aud also partly due - to
some being already liberally supplied.
“The threatened strike has not had any
appreciable influence. It is hoped that
tho struggle will be averted. Everybody
who is practically acquainted with the
tiade is aware that neither manufacturers
nor spinners are making any profit at
present, and it is thought probable that
the operatives are gradually becoming
aware of this. Since the present agita
tion began the margin between cotton
and cloths, and between yarn and cloth,
has diminished.”
Paris, Sept. 22—A new cabinet has
. _ „ been' definitely constituted, as follows:
at the door. A polite servant ushered us j M. Jules Ferry, president of the council
°-*“• 1 and minister of public instruction; M,
overseer; _ ^
Goodridge; Surgeon J. B. Hannah, of the | crew on hoard, and are now working the
royal engineers; Capt. Balderslove; Lieu- vessel up here. The old crew had been
tenant J. E. H. Sullivan; Dr. liotchill, j stricken with Ohagres fever,
and Second Lieut. J. B. Carmichael. {
London, Sept. 22.—The Times says the
into a gorgeous apartment and ere Ion;,
Mrs. Cheatham, richly but tastily apparel
ed,, received us with the true refinement
and cordiality of a Southern lady. Her
manners were free from affectation, quiet
and dignified, and in appearance she
might well pass for one twenty years her
junior. After a little Dr. Cheatham and
Miss Pauline were introduced, and an
animated and agreeable conversation en
sued. By request, they showed us over
the house, which is fitted up and furnished
with regal magnificence.
The very bed chamber of our host,
with its elegant boudoirs, tapestry carpets,
satin bed covering, splendid mirrors and
numerous articles of ornament and rertu,
must have cost thousands. The parlors,
too, were models of convenience and
beauty, their walls being literally covered
with paintings of ancient masters.
In the family gallery we noticed three
splendid life-like portraits, which were
exquisitely executed at a cost ef fifteen
thousand dollars. One of them represent
ed our hostess when in the first blush of
maiden loveliness, and a more beautiful
picture is seldom to be seen.
Another delineation was that of Mrs.
Acklen, Mr. Acklen aud their boy Joe (the
Congressman), then a chubby infant of
two years. The group was singularly
handsome, and wo could well imagine
from the looks of the gallant husband that
the second marriage was indeed a love
match.
Copies of other recherche original pic
tures adorned the walls, which were pro
cured regardless of expense. One com
modious apartment was devoted to bil
liards, books, smoking and other amuse
ments. There was an air of cosiness,
united with a magnificence, about the
whole place, almost Eastern in its tout
ensemble, which could not fail to charm
the visitor.
In a conversation with our gentlemanly
host, Dr. Cheatham, he stated that the
’rounds, statuary, conservatories, paint
ings and furniture of his establishment
had cost over three hundred thousand
dollars. This figure seems large, but no
one who has ever witnessed the “fairy
land,” which this magnificent expendi
ture, coupled with nature's gifts, has cre
ated, will ever doubt the statement.
But there i3 an end to all things, and at
length we departed, laden with choice
flowers and more than delighted with our
visit to Dr. Cheatham and bis estimable
wife and daughter. H. H. J.
