That large and elegant stock of goods so
recently received at Briggs, Jelks k Cos.,
is rapidly going off. The temptation is
more than the people can bear. The se

their stock is being rapidly depleted. Call
while it is yet early, for the time is coming
when their goods will all be sold.

A NARRATIVE OF MILITARY OPERATIONS
DIRECTED BY OEN. JOSEPH E JOHNSTON
DURING THE LATE WAR.
This book, written by General Joliuston,
is now offered to the public, and will
doubtless prove one of the most tlirillingly
interesting works ever offered to the
Southern public, and particularly to the
Southern soldiers that was under his eom
ninnd. Though concisely written, it em
braces every material fact in regard to his
operations. To his soldier boys it will
awaken many sad as well as pleasing
reminiscences. It will turn back the pages
of memory and present vividly to the
recollection the many battlefields, the
many comrades and co-sufferers that fell
and is no more; the many hard conflicts,
the weary marches through rain and
shine, cold and boat; and the croakers
behind the army and out of danger should
carefully read his truthful statement, and
in it behold the imbecility of their criti
cisms and their wanton and unjustifiable
persecutions of this great commander.
This book is now offered by Mr. O. T.
Terry’, our townsman aud fellow citizen,
the agent for the publishers, who will sell
it at publishers priees.
We take pleasure iu recommending it to
our readers as a correct history of the war,
as to the operations conducted by the
author. It will prove an interesting and

THE IMMEDI ATI'vIiEOOGN ITION OF
CUBA.
PRESIDENT GRANT ON THE CURRENCY
QUESTION.
CIVIL RIGHTS.
Sent ucky contebtiil j"ELECTi6N .
STLLS AND TOBACCO SEIZED.
Washington, April 13.—The official
organ contains an elaborate editorial, de
claring the present time opportune, aud
gives reasons for an immediate recognition
of the Cuban Republic. Tho article con
tains citations from international law
writers, showing that thoro is no just cause
of offence to Spain if recognition is accord
ed and commercial treaties entered into
with the Republic prior to recognition by
Spain. It declares our commercial inter
ests arc greatly suffering ou account of the
war iu Cuba—tho ballanco of trade is
against us to tho amount of forty to fifty
millions—that complications heretofore
existing no longer exist—that England in
trigues in the coutrol of Cuban affairs aud
trade—that recognition would open uow
markets for tho western grain growers,
provision dealers and the machinists and
manufacturers of tho Eastern and Middle
States, and furnish occupation to thousands
of Southern people, and tend to restore the
Southern States towards the Government.
Tho article is supposed to express Presi
dent Grant’s views and foreshadow' action
by the government.
Washington, April 13.—President
Grant, in conversation with friends to-day
ou tho subject of finances, said it was
desirable that tho pledges of the govern
ment to return an soon as practicable to
specie payments should not have been
overlooked; in his annual message ho hud
suggested measures of preparation for
such resumption, aud thought now, as he
did then, that the national banks should
retain as a portion of their reserve, either
the whole or or a part of the gold interest
accruing upon tho bonds pledged as secu
rity for their issue, and tho Treasury, ho
added, should also similarly strengthen
j itself with a view to resumption. He had
j no hesitation iu saying that ho was op
posed to inflation on the general aoeep-
I Unce of the term to an increase of currency
I beyond the actual business necessities of
j tins country, but at the same time ho had
| given no opinion concerning measures
i before Congress, nor had lie indicated
! what his action would bo relative to any
| bill that might be passed. The two houses
had not yet acted concurrently and there
fore no opportunity was offered for conjec
ture, oven as to the fluid result : but apart
from his own self respect, and it would he
improper, if not offensive, for him to inti
mate to Congress what he would or would
not do in the event of a financial bill being
presented to him for liis signature.
Washington, April 14.—The sudstitute
for Mr. Sumner’s civil rights bill, reported

Foreshadowings of Cabinet Reconstruc
tion.
Washington, April 8. —lmportant questions
are under advisement to-night with regard to
the Treasury portfolio. It is about decided that
Mr. Richardson will soon resign. Mr Delano’s
chances for the succession appear to havo com
pletely failed, and A. J. Drexef has come into the
c >nspumous foreground. The difficulty in his
way seems to be that {Senators Cameron ano Scott
must bo satisfied, and that tho former opposes
Mr. Drexel on the ground that he was formily a
Democrat, while the latter shakes his head with
foreboding mien. There is something in the
fact Mr. Drexel has interests as a banker suppos
ably inconsistent with an impartial administration
of the Treasury Department, that may, if .Sena
tors (! am cron and Scott opposes, defeat his confir
mation.
In addition to this, Mr. Edwards Pierropont is
foremost among the candidates for some kind of
cabinet position. Secretary Fish on a former occa-
I sion promised the President to stay, when he had
I decided to go, and made cor/espondending faml
llv arrangements; and if he is disposed to stay
now, Mr. Pierropont has no chance. The points of
tho problem now awaiting solution are these:
Pennsylvania has no cabinet minister, and wants
one badly. Both Senators know that Mr. Drexel is
the only Pennsylvanian they can got, and may
take him up for that reason. That question is
under descussion, and the result may settle the
entire matter of cabinet changes by making Mr.
j Drexel Secretary of tho Treasury and Mr. Pierre
i pont Secretary of State o*- Attorney General. The
j President evidently desi/es this programme to
I succeed. •
—
How to Elect the President.
The Washington agent of tho Baltimore
I Sun, says the committee on Privileges and
j Elections held •. session on Friday of more
j than two hours in consideration of the in
quiry as to the best method of electing the
j President and Vico President of the United
i States. The committoe has determined
I that whatever project is presented shall bo
! in such a shape as to disarm all suspicious
j of partizan purpose, and it is believed now
! that the report will bo signed by every
j member of the committee. Tho com
i mitteo came to the positive conclusion to
.retain that part of the present system
] providing that each State shall have two
votes at large, as it was conceded that the
smaller States would never consent to re
linquish this feature. These votes will be
oast for the candidate having a plurality of
tho votes of the whole State. Each State
s all also bo entitled to au equal number
of votes for President to its representation
in tho House. This vote will bo by districts,
aud tho candidate receiving a plurality of
all the legal ballots cast in a district shall
receive the vote of that district. For in
stance, if tho Democratic candidate should
carry four districts in Maryland and the Re
publicans two, tho Republican candidate
would got two votes from Mary
land, and the Democratic candidate
having u majority of all tho electors
of tho whole State would get tho two votes
as large in addition to liis four votes by
districts. Under this system, as proposed
by the committee, it would be next to impos
sible for a minority candidate to bo elected
President, as has been the case under the
electorial system, and it would bo also al
most an impossibility for any of the States
to coutrol the election, as their votes would
bo divided. Tho committee have agreed
to incorporate tho provision that a plurali
ty instead of a majority may elect, because
that principle with tho exception of two or
three of tho States now prevails all over
the Union.
The Sun on Washington.
The New York Sun of Friday has the
following upon tho social aspects of tho
capitol:
if the moral atmosphere is bad, the ma
terial is worse. Indulging in the luxury
of changed grades aud levels, with the
translated soil taken out from elevations
and deposited in depressions, tho air is
charged with a noxious malaria exhales
from tlio chemical action of sutiaud .storm,
upon a feculent upturning of alluvial,
which carries disease upon its wings. The
city is not salubrious, and iu all of those
localities where the labor lias been largest
the residents shiver in intermittent or
shake iu paroxysmal ague. Not even the
Gobelin tapestries of the Mahommedon
Mosque of Mr. Senator Stewart can keep
out the insidious miasma, which does not
remit its influences even upon the Senato
rial viscera. This is not continuing, for
evaporation will do its work, but at this
given time the attraction of Washington
cannot be its sanitary condition.
Nor can its society win to closo favor
and esteem. Twenty-five years ago, there
was a quiet gentility and a finished cul
ture, which made tho fashionable inter
course of its better circles not only de
lightful in enjoyment, but elevating and
refining iu its associations. It was not au
aristocracy of wealth, for if moderate
wealth was not the rule, overgrown aud
demonstrative money was tho exception.
It was tho outcrop of the old Cavalier
courtesy, courtly iu demeanor without
anything of pretension or supercilious
ness. The frontior Wolverine, Hoosier,
or Sticker, who came here in tho revolu
tions of public enjoyment, with lank hair,
maternal ji aus and cowhide brogans,
yielded to tlio civilizing impressions, un
til the prairie Orson, by a gradual trans
formation, became a proper inmate of sa
loons and drawing rooms.
Now all this is changed. Death has va
cated thcso old seats of social supremacy
which leavened the coarseuesss of importa
tion and kept the better constituents of in
tercourse iu supremacy. With tliis with
drawal we have the luxuriant growth of
war and its long leaps into fortuitous opu
lence, with its barbaric pomp and scenic
splendor. It is tho age of peacock gaudi
ness and bird of paradise plumage—the
abrupt transition from tlio Haunt to rags to
the flutter of brocade—“tawdry yellow
striving with dirty red”—false iu tost# anil
most fatal in its allurements, iu tho circuit
of governmental employment upon moder
ate stipends, when every impulsion is to
extravagant and improvident expenditure.
While tho stinted and suffering labor of
the nation is stretching out pleading hands
for relief in the painted promise to pay,
the heads of bureaus iu the Treasury, in
assignments unknown to law, a mere
higher grade of clerks, roll around tho
wooden ways of the city iu clarence and
coup, with their coachmen in the livery
and cockade of a Royal Duke, it might
be an impertinence to ask in wliat manner
the quarterly bills are paid, but tho Treas
ury itself must supply the need through
some process of distillation obscure to tho
outward observer but transparent to the
initiated.
A Washington correspondent Savannah
Advertiser-Republican says: “It has not
yet been decided to investigate the United
.States Marshals ofiico in Noithern Georgia.
The House Judiciary Committee has other
matters before it, and cannot give this the
consideration required. Borne say tho in
vestigation in certain to take place; but
others say not. lam assurod by one who
professes to bo pos toil that if the investi
gation doos take plaoo it will bring to light
some rich developements, and that tho im
plicated persons will not all belong to one
party,”
