Ben Butler rejoices that ho was
made what be is by Ood, and not by
the newspapers. Maybe ho is not
such as God made him. Like Luci

We violate no confidence in announc
ing that Gen. R. B. Hayes will be elected
President of the United States two weeks
from to day.-— St. Louis Qlobe-Dem.
There are other things, besides confi
dence, that ought not to be violated.
The Nashville American’s reports es
timate the peanut crop of Tennessee this
year at 836,000 to 350,000 bushels, being
at least 100,000 bushels larger than the
crop of last year. The nut is also said to
be much belter filled and matured than
for two years past.
—a,
Peter Cooper. The New York
World reports an interview with the ven
erable Peter Cooper on Monday, in which
that gentleman reiterated his determina
tion not to withdraw, but to “remain the
champion of the greenback cause.’’ He
also said that he “had strong indications
that ho would carry certain States, and
hoped for a good return from the others.”
The old gentleman is certainly very san
guine.
The politics of Tennessee are this
year worse “mixed up" than those of any
other State. The State bond question
enters largely into the canvass, and there
are at least four candidates for Governor.
“Independent" candidates for other offi
ces are also numerous. There is no doubt
of a large Democratic majority in Ten
nessee, and we hope that there is no doubt
about her Presidential vote forTiiden.
But wo feel no assurance of anything
else.
The Cincinnati Enquirer contends that
the 22cl joint rule of Congress, which
regulates the counting of the Electoral
vote, is still in force. It says that it was
adopted before the counting of the Elec
toral vote in February 1865, and was con
tinued and observed in 1860 and 1878,
without the formality of re-adoption. Its
argument is that if it was not necessary
to re-adopt it to give it force in 1809 and
1878, it is not necessary to re-adopt it for
1877. The question is a'mixed and diffi
cult one.
We wish to propound another question:
Would any court decide that Congress
has, under the constitution, the right to
reject the Electoral vote of any State,
properly authenticated f If it has, is not
this vesting the right to elect the Presi
dent In Congress instead of the States ?
Gov. Tilden has written a letter to
Hon. Abraham S. Hewitt in regard to
“Southern Claims.” He says that in
the event of his election no “rebel
debts” will be assumed or paid, as all
such are forbidden payment by the
14th Amendment. This disclaimer
was rendered neeessary by the Radi
cal clamor that under a Democratic
Administration payment would be
demanded for slaves emancipated
and for property destroyed during
the war. As they are clearly repudi
ated by the constitutional amend
ment, Gov. Tilden could take no
other view of the question than that
which he announces in this letter.
He also says that the “cotton tax”
collected since the war must not be
refunded. We propose to copy Gov.
Tilden *s letter hereafter.

THIS TW# armies.
To comprehend fully the difficul
ties which the people of this country
now have to encounter in tho effort to
expel a party in power from position,
wo must consider the etrength and
exertions of the two armies which the
Administration employs in its behalf.
One is the army of office-holders, gen
erally computed at about eighty thou
sand. This vast army has been more
actively at work than any other body
of citizens during tho canvass. But
a small number of them comparative
ly have takon the stump and stood
out openly before the people as sup
porters of Hayes and Wheeler. But
nearly all havo contributed portions
of their salaries, and thus raised
tiie vast corruption fund that was
so freely expended in Indiana
and Ohio, and will be as free
ly expended in the close and
doubtful States in November.
This is unquestionably the most
powerful political organization, for
its numbers, in the country, because
Belf-interest makes it contribute
more freely of its money and enables
it to operate upon personal friends
interested in the retention of office
holders in their positions. Wo have
lately seen that, notwithstanding tho
Republican pretense that the reduc
tion of the Department employees
left them with forces insufficient
to transact all tho business of the
Government, the clerks and others
from Ohio and Indiana were not only
sent back home to vote, but wore
given ten days in which to see their
personal friends and prevail on them
to vote as they wished. A formidable,
interested power, this, which the
pcoplo have to encounter.
The other army—the military force
of the Government—is smaller in
numbers; but as it is clothed with the
authority of the Government, resis
tance to the work which it is sent to do
is out of the question. It is a simple
despotism as uow used iu the South.
This army is distributed throughout
the South, but is now mainly con
centrated in South Carolina. We are
at a loss whether its concentration
there signifies that in tho judgment
of the Administration it is only no
cessary to carry one State of the
South by military power; or whether
the Administration fears that it will
lose more than it will gain by em
ploying it in other States; or whether
South Carolina is only used as a tem
porary rendezvous whence the troops
will be suddenly sent to neighboring
Southern States just before the elec
tion. Whichever of these surmises
may be correct, the military power
is being omployed to do its part to
wards the success of the Radical
party in the Presidential election,and
will accomplish all that the adminis
tration may deem possible for it.
These two armies—the one great
ip numbers and strong in purse, and
the other panoplied with the author
ity of the Government—stand be
tween tho people of the country and
any change of the Administration.
The Administration employs them in
its own defence and in that of its
party. It may be said of Cameron
and Chandler, when directing these
Administration forces, that in every
section of the country
“One blast upon their bugle horn
Is worth ft thousand men."
We believo that the sentiment of
the American people in favor of a
change of Administration is so strong
that it will overcome all obstacles;
but it bos in these two armies of the
Government very powerful organiza
tions to encounter.
COXDEMBED GEORCIA NEW*.
—Mr. T. Joff Dozier, ono of the oldest
and beat citizens of Talbotton, died last
week, aged 72 years.
—From the official count.it is ascertain
ed that during the yellow fever epidemic
in Brunswick there were 112 deaths, of
which HI wore frcm yellow fever and 1
from consumption.
Edmund Wood, a negro of Hpalding
county, was arrested and committed td
jail in Griffin, on a charge of entering the
room of a couple of young ladles at night
and trying to commit a rape on one of
them.
—The Sumter Republican learns that
noar Drayton, Dooly county, on Friday
last, a man by the name of Calhoun was
shot at a ootton press by Walter Redding.
The victim was, on last advices, in a per
ilous condition. No arrest.
—ln the Superior Court of Bibb county,
on Wednesday, the jury rendered a ver
dict sustaining the will of James M,
Gray, of Jones county, which was contest
ed. The testator had bequeathed the bulk
of his property to Mercer University to
be applied to the education of indigent
young men of Jones county.
—The Darien Timber Gaxtte says: John
E. Bryant, the notorious carpet-bagger,
who is despised by all tho honest Republi
cans In Georgia, will bo overwhelmingly
defeated for Congress in this district. Wo
put Hartridge’s majority down at 8,000,,
and we do not put it down any too htgh
cither.
—Genova Lamp: Sugar cane Is plenti
ful this year and cheap. Wo know of one
gentleman who has sold twenty dollars
worth from the sixteenth of an acre, has
twenty dollars worth more to Bell after
reserving enough to plant a quarter of an
acre and giving a family of fourteen
adults os much as they can chew fora
month. It pays in this climate to raise
tho cane—even over school-boys.
—Atlanta Times— On Monday last an
office was opened in the Bowon House, a
eolored.hotel.lon Decatur street, in this city
for the purpose of enlisting eolored men
to fill the vacancies ia colored regiments
stationed out West, which vacancies were
caused by the expiration of the terms of a
large number who did not wish to re-enlist
having got quite enough of that kind of
life on the plains. A large flag of our coun
try was hung to the breeze from the front
window of the headquarters, and the ap
pearance was quite inviting- The open
ing of the office will take away quite a
large number of colored men from this
section of the country, who have a fasci
nation for the life of a soldier. Already
we hear that about one hundred and fifty
men have enlisted. Among them are some
draymen, who have sold out their dray
and horse, and have concluded to try
the musket for awhile at any rate.

Editor Times: It is well known to
all of your readers that the means of
procuring ao education In LaGrange
is equal to any place in Georgia.
There are two fine female colleges
and good male sohools; they are
well supplied with Philosophical and
Chemical apparatus, excellent libra
ries, specimens of minerals, and all
the modern Improvements that go to
the fitting up oif colleges of learning.
THE SOUTHERN FEMALE COLLEGE
has a fine corps of trained teachers.
The following is a full list of the
FaoMlty:

boarding department.
Mrs. I. F. Cox, Matron.
PRIMARY DEPARTMENT.
Miss Eliza J. Toole.
THE BOARD OF VISITORS
are composed of some of our most
distinguished men scattered over the
State. Among the number we see
the name of’Capt. Wm. A. Little, of
Columbus. Alabuma has her share
among the number.
THE ALUMNAE
commenced with Miss Jano Battle
in 1845, and end with the Misses Rud
cliffs’ and Miss Bussey in 1875 and ’7O,
of Columbus. The total list foots up
over three hundred, all shining lights
to-day in the social olrcle of Ameri
can society.
POST GRADUATES.
Thero have only been six in all. The
Misses Cox, MissStokely, now mem
bers of the College Faculty, are of
this number. This degree is only re
ceived by those who havegone through
a more thorough course of instruction
than is usual in Female Colleges.
They receive all the higher advanta
ges of the best Male Colleges.
THE ELEMENTARY COURSE *
In this department the young lady
has a special training in every stage
of advancement.
THE COLLEGIATE COURSE.
is thorough and practical in all its
various branches.
THE MUSICAL DEPARTMENT
is equal to any in the land, being
abundantly supplied with musical in
struments of the best makers. The
Misses Cox are said to be superior
performers,and have a pleasant man
ner of training others to become
good players and singers.
THE DEPARTMENT OF FINE ARTS
is under the management of exports
in this line of instruction.
CALE3THENIC3
Is tought to nil the pupils free of
charge. This department is almost
necessary for the health of tho pu
pils. There has not been a bad case
ofjsiekness in fifteen years among the
class.
BOARD
is cheap and with good families near
the College.
MOBAL TRAINING.
While the mental powers of the
young are being developed, their
moral and religious training must
not be neglected. They should be
taught the naturo of the obligations
which are duo from man to his Crea
ator; the conscience should be en
lightened, the moral faculties quick
ened, and a love of truth implanted,
The citizens of LaGrange are just
ly proud of this College. It has few
equals as an institution of learning
for girls.
YESTERDAY
was a cold, dreary, drizzling day;
the rain misted and pattered from
day-light to dark. The season was a
good one, much needed and highly
appreciated by the sturdy farmers.
Soon they will sow oats, wheat and
rye, in larger quantities, too, than
last year, as it will next year pay
better than cotton at low prices.
EX-COLUMBUSSITEB AND PERSONALS.
Sam Cherry Is here buying cotton,
and we learn is doing well. Dick
Lockhart, a young man of sterling
worth, is In business at this point.
Mrs. C M and her charming,
beautiful and accomplished daughter
are residing at La Grange. Should
any of the Columbus blonds come to
call, she is not far from the postofflee.
The handsome Knight of the “Bell
Cord” is informed that this Miss
M , is not his Miss M-—,
who also Is a young lady of
rare beauty, and If he needs an as
sistant conductor none would do him
more honor than she.
