The Bt. Louie Qlobe-Democrat, one
or the bitterest Radical papers In the
country, cruelly says that "the heart
hemorrhage with which Mr. Hayes
was afflicted last November, when
he thought of the ‘poor negro,’ is not
as bad as it was.”
In alluding generally to the im
pending war in Europe, Secretary
Sherman says that while lamenting
this calamity there Is no question
that the effects of the struggle upon
the United States will be to quicken
Industry, stimulate trade and
strengthen the national credit.

The area of the Russian empire in
Europe and Asia extends over one
seventh of the land surface of the
globe. Tbe European population,
occupying an area of about 86,039
square miles, 03,758,934. This does
not Include either Russian Poland,
whose population Is 6,705,607 ; or Fin
land, with 1,643,245 inhabitants. Rus
sia In Asia has an estimated popula
tion of 6,302,412, but these belong
chiefly to the aomadic tribes.
The President told some Quakers
that be did not feel quite so far ad
vanced in the peace doctrine' as they,
and must on some occasions resort to
severe measures. It would be an
admirable time to display a little of.
this severity in Loalsiana.—■ Florida

There was no occasion for it In
Louisiana, as the result proved; and
even if there had boon, the President
was uot the party to apply it. The
people of Louisiana soon righted
things there when the President or
dered the withdrawal of the troops.
The New York Times says that
“the equities as well as the eertaln
'tlos of the caso are against” the
Republicans who are endoavoring to
organize the House oq a Republican
basis. It does not think that the
Republicans itu the House can “with
propriety or profit endeavor to ac
quire from the pthor side the few
votes required to turn the scale” in
favor of the election of a Republican
Speaker. And It sys that a "success
so acquired wold be worse than
defeat.”

At a meetiug held in Griffin on
Monday, to seleet delegates to a con
vention to make nominations for tbe
Constitutional Convention, a great
diversity of opinion was manifested,
and tbe meeting Anally adjourned
without any action exoept voting
down propositions offered. The
News says : "Tbe meeting was small,
but developed a lively opposition to
the measure, and if we accept its
action as a reflex of public opinion in
the county, the convention will be
defeated overwhelmingly in Spalding
county.”
Significant.— -A shott time ago a
Democratic member Introduced in
the Ohio Legislature a bill to punish
election frauds in such a way as to
prevent their commission. The bill
provided for imprisonment in the
penitentiary for not less than on enor
more tnan fifteen years for any su
perintendent of an election, return
ing officer or State offlolal, who
should make a false or fraudulent
count or return of votes, or conceal
or suppress aby election returns. The
bill passed the House with only two
dissenting votes, but a motion was
afterwards made to reconsider lt, and
this motion was carried by a strict
partjLyoto—every Republican voting
for it, and every Democrat against it.
On Saturday last Aho reconsidered
bill was again put upon it* passage
and defeated by the a&me party vote.

A LOOK All RAD.
Even if the war in Europe should
be oontined to Russia and Turkey, it
must greatly diminish the agricultu
ral production of the year, and in
crease Its consumption of the com
modities whose production 1* thus
onrtalled. The waste of war i* im
mense, even If the oontending forces
remain stationary or nearly *o; but
when a large extent of country is
ravaged and plundered, as will pro
bably be the case this year, the loss
is almost incalculable. The defi
ciency of production thus occasioned
must be supplied from the un
interrupted industry of other
countries, and tho demand
for this purpose will make a heavy
draft upon the United States, and no
doubt run up prices here. It will
particularly affect breadstuff*, which
may advance during tbe year to
much higher prioes than those now
obtaining. Tho belligerent govern
ments must strain tbelr credit to raise
the means of supplying their armies,
and this will alleviate, or at least
postpone, the pecuniary hardship
consequent upon the war. But the
reaction will come, as it came In tbe
United States after our stupendous
war, and will then reach even ti;ose
who had secured "bomb proofs” and
untouched homes during the conflict
of arms.
In view of these inevitable condi
tions, tho farmers of our Southern
Suites may clearly see the planting
economy that will be most to their
interest. It is to so manage as to
avoid having to buy any grain or
meat-ospeolally grain. They can
not, of course, compote with the
Western Statos in tho supply of
bread-stuffs to the belligerents, but
they can protect themselvos from
buying corn at a dollar or a dollar
and a bait a bushel, and flour at ten
or fifteen dollars a barrel, and pay
ing for them with cotton at ton to
twolvo cents per pound.
it is not at all unlikely that bread
stuffs will be still higher than these
figures, and cotton lower. Ordinary
prudonoe would suggest to every
farmer the ocouomy of making him
self safe in a case of this kind, ami
this ho can only do by freeing himself
from dependence on the cribs, bins
and smokehouses of the West. We
are safe from any direot entangle
ment in tho war, even if all Europe
should engage in It, but it will still
require judgment and prudence to
prevent our suffering from it, when
we might by proper management
turn it to our advantage.
The Montgomery Advertiser states
tbht the Western Railroad has just
completed a splendid new sleeping
coach, which has been put on the
road, and will be used between Ma
con, Ga., and Montgomery. It was
made entire in Montgomery.
Col. T. J. Smith, of Washington
county, gives tho Macon Telegraph
an account of tho murder of one of
his guards, James McMichael, by
some of the penitentiary convicts
leased and worked by Mr. Smith.
The convict squad which committed
tbe deed consisted of eight. Moses
Butler felled Mr. MoMicbael with an
axe, and was followed by a second
blow by George Washington, of Mus
cogee, oithor of which would have
killed him.
After the fatal blow they pilfered
his pockets, first getting the key that
looked the prisoners together on a
chain. They also got from his per
son ninety dollars in money—took
his double-barrel gun and repeater,
and, after getting off the squad
ohain, cut their shackles off with
axes and made for Ooonee Swamp,
about one mile off. There were eight
convicts <n the squad, all of whom
escaped save ono who fled for camp
to tell the awful story of tho killing.
Immediate pursuit was made with
dogs, but tho convicts swam the
Oconee river and cut off pursuit.
The Convention Question.—Cor
respondents claim so much of our
space in the discussion of this ques
tion, that we have concluded to leave
the controversy chiefly to them.
Having already indicated our prefer
ence for the Convention, not as a
first choice, but as the only immedi
ately available moans of remedying
defects in the Constitution, we are
content to givo a fair showing
through our columns to both its ad
vocates aud opponent*. But there is
ono argument in the dissuasion
whioh we think may as well be drop
ped. That is, the repudiation of the
fraudulent Bullock bonds. That is
a matter upon which the people will
voteseparatply before they vote on the
question of the call oj tbeConven
lion. Tho bond ques'ion, therefore,
will have been decided before the
Convention is called or rejected. If
the people vote in May to repudiate
tho bonds, tho Convention will of
coarse consider itself instructed on
that point, and simply follow the in
structions of the people; and if, on
the other hand, tho people vote down
the repudiation of the bonds (a very
supposition) the Conven
tion will hardly run counter to the
decision of the people, by incorporat
ing a repudiating clause in the Con
stitution. It might re-submit the
question of the repudiation separate
ly in tho form of an ordinance. So,
In any event, this bond question is
hot involved in the Convention call,
and might as well be dropped from
the discussion.
More That Hayes Said. The
special 'Washington reporter of the
New Orleans Democrat telegraphs
more of Hayes’ talk on Tuesday
about his “Southern policy” and
"Blaine, Wade & Cos.” than was
given by the Associated Press dis
patches. The conversation was with
a gentleman who is an applicant for
a foreign appointment, and called
socially on the President. He says
that “what struck him most forcibly
was the profound good humor Hayes
exhibited in commenting on the de
signs of his enemies in his own party,
and his ovident faith in the inberem
strength of his policy when placed
before the country oq Its merits.
Huyes seemed to regard the idea of
the Senate requiring troops to main
tain Kellogg in his seat, as a neat bit
of humor, and, altogether, his review
of tho situation indicated that he
listens to the mad bellowings of the
Radical bulls of Bashan with pro
found complacency.”
This reporter continues:
To the suggestion that the opposl
lien might like the shape of seating
Kellogg as Senator from Louisiana,
the President’s reply wns that that
would be tho Senate’s affair, uot bis ;
the Senate was judge or tho qualiii
cations of its members. He had been
informed the Senate Committee on
Privileges and Elections had report
ed Kellogg entitied to bis seat, but
the report had not been acted upon
If Kellogg was legally entitled to the
seat at the time the report was made,
he was certainly entitled to it now,
because nothing bad been done to
invalidate anybody's legal rights.
The general tenor of the President’s
observations on the subject of Kel
logg’s contest for the seat in the Sen
ate was to the effect that he (Hayes)
had no personal interest in the mat
ter, and did not see how tho seating
of Kellogg oould disturb the even
tenor of his administrative policy; it
could not, at the worst, be consider
ed as a reversal of any decision as to
who was the legal Governor or whioh
the rightful Government in Loulsi
ana, because he had made no deci
sion on that point; he had done
nothing but withdraw Federal luter
ferenoe, leaving tbe'governmont of
tbe State to adjust itself according to
the ruling sentiment of the people.
The Senate oould seat Kellogg if it
wanted to, and unless the Senate
should find it necessary to call ou
him to use Federal troops to main
tain Kellogg in his seat there would
be no occasion for any action on his
part involving an exercise of execu
tive power. Of course such a con
tingency was absurd, and therefore
tbe seating of Kellogg would not
affect him or the policy of his Ad
ministration. The Southern policy,
he said, related simply to the atti
tude of tho general government
toward the States, not to the attitude
of the United States Senate toward
the administration.
I'lllS IX. LOYAL TO lIIN LOVE,
0 ' *
BY THEODORA TRAMMEL.
Is it possible for a Pope to have
any fine sentiments ? When Pius IX
was a young man, he was ambitious
to become a great military captain.
With this intention, he entered the
Austrian army, at an early age, and
in a short time became distinguished,
not Only as a good soldier, but as a
germ whioh would sometime develop
into a great military diplomatist.
Buoyed upward by these propellers,
he was soon rapidly approachiug the
martial plain, up which, a few years
before, Napoleon I had marched,
desplto the opposing powers of Eu
rope, and on its summit stood poised
mid shouts of Vice VEmpereur l Vive
la France! He was much devoted to
his profession, but he was much
more devoted to a sweet young lady,
whom he loved supremely—yea,
worshiped, with unceasing de
votion; and this feeling of his
was met by a like feeling
from her. Happy! yes. perfectly
happy! But hear the verses of the
poet,
“Two urns by Jove’* high throne have ever
stood,
The source of evil one, and one of good;
From thence the cup of mortal mau he fills,
Blesslnge to these, to those destinates ills.
To most, he mingles both; the wretch decreed
To taste the bad unmixed, is cursed indeed;
Tue happiest tasto not happiness sincere,
But find the cordial draught is dashed with
carol”
There was a time, I say, when he
was perfectly happy; but after that,
there was a time when he was very
unhappy,tor at tho bottom of his cup,
which till then had been all sweet,
ho tasted the bitterest of the bitter,
that flavor that everything has after
the death of a loved one; for she,
whom he had loved divinely and
devotedly, was now dead. Alas!
alas!
“Some griefs gnaw deep; some
woes are hard to bear.” They had
worshipped each other—she had been
t.he inspirer of his ambition, of every
hope and of every joy; and now these
are all buried; his love he gave her
long ago, and since then to cherish it
for her has been of the purest and
sweetest joy of his life, equalled on
ly by that other joy, of knowing that
her love was all for him, aud her lire
one of devotion to him, as his has
been to her; and it is this love that
he cherishes as tho most priceless,
the most sacred gift it could possibly
have been his fortune to possess;and
for sixty summers he has felt no
change, but it is as fresh and sweet to
him as tbe breath that first vowed
her love. Her beautiful lace and
lovely presence he has ever before
him in Idealism, and there, for fifty
years, he has knelt and worshipped
her! Can anything be sadder than
this ? And yet, it is not all sad; there
is something ineffably sweet about it;
think of his long life of fond and full
devotion to her! The life of this
man is a poem—a poem of the ten
derest and most touching, as well as
most beautiful sentiment in the
ideal region of poets. After the death
of this young lady, or rather at
her death, his ambition and
hopes of distinction, all ceased to be,
and the only source of joy left to
him, was to worship, in fancy, her
whom he had worshipped in life, to
cherish these fond reminiscences of
her, and to visit and beautify her hal
lowed grave.
The idea of his ever marrying was
perfectly repulsive to him; he felt
that it would be sacrilege, a very
crime in him. Feeling thus, he
thought some employment would
possibly make life endurable, and
knowing that he could find happi
ness in the past only, he loDged for
some place where the unsentimental
world would be shut out from his
sanctum, and himself left to dream
o’er the past, and, in fancy, make the
past and present one. And it was
under these circumstances, and with
these convictions, that be decided to
become a Catholic Priest; ho wa3
rhen, soon sent to South America,
where ho made wonderful success;
and after his return to Rome,
if I remember, ho was made,
succesively. Bishop, Archbishop,
and Cardinal; and in 1846,
at tho early ugo of fifty-four, he
was crowned Pope Plus IX. He has
ever been a man of pure and elevated
sentiment. In his love matter, they
were both honest, candid and sincere
—not a shadow of deception, conceal
ment, sham, or mako-believe, existed
in either one—nothing but purity and
sincerity. They were intimate, and
each one knew the nature of the
other perfectly well; and both knew
and felt their natures to be perfectly
eongeniul, and felt that they were
made to love each other alone. He
had perfect confidence In her in every
respect, and she had the same confi
dence in him; he had no thought
that -he would not willingly disclose
to her, and she had none that she
would not gladly reveal to him. They
expressed themselves to each other
with great freedom, and professed to
love each other divinely and devoted
ly ; and proved their sincerity, and
the truth of their professions, by
their conduct. His conduct towards
her assured her, beyond the possibil
ity of a doubt, that he was wholly
hers—and he knew, beyond question,
that she was wholly his; and they
both knew and were determined,that
they should never cease to be so.
This is my ideal of loving and being
loved, and they, my ideal lovers!
One of the greatest, if not the very
greatest charm about it, la this; He
knew that she was wholly his, and, she
knew that he was wholly hers: By
knowing this, lovers are free from
that doubt, discontent, suspense,
and fear, that othewise invariably
make them miserable. But instead
of this, that Is, instead of beiug sin
cere and candid, and appearing to be
just what they are, and have an un
derstanding that effect, most lovers,
are as deceitful a3 they can possibly
be, affect to be- cold and indifferent,
and anything but what they really
are. Poor deceitful creatures! If
there be a crime that is not cata
logued, it is deception; it is highly
immoral, and doubtless, the source
of more misery than all the liquor
men ever drank. "If you love a
woman and are wholly hers, never
let her know it;” this is for those
suspicious natures who Intend to get
into the court of matrimony by fraud
and deception. The best and purest
manner of loving aDd beiug loved is
that of Plus IX., which I have just
given you, and it is adopted by those
who live a whole atmosphere of puri
ty and above deception or
any sordid or unpure thought.
N. B.—" They were intimate.” For
fear someone may falsely interpret
this, I will any of the use of the word
“intimate,” that where the relation
between two of the opposite sexes is
not legitimate, we always say, either
"they are too intimate," or, they are
"criminally intimatebut when it is
used without these Qualifying words, it
expresses a relation that is pure and
legitimate, either of friendship or
love.

A Lucky Escape—The Eaa* Addle*.
St. Louis Republican.]
The St. Paul Pioneer and Press de
scribes the grass nop per region of
Minnesota as an area 150 miles in
breadth by 350 miles In length, and
embracing nei.r v 50,000 of ttie 80,000
square miles ol the Slate. In this vast
section "ten million times ten mil
lion” eggs were laid last. year.
Should all these eggs hatch, the rav
aging pests would be more terrible
tnan an army with bauners. The
prospect justifies the Governor’s
proclamation of a dav oi fasting and
prayer that the plague may be
stayed.
The report from Kansas is that the
grasshopper eggs ia that State ure
addled. The rain and the frost have
done the business for them. The
Governor will not, therefore, appoint
a day for fasting and prayer, though
it might be becoming to proclaim a
day of feasting and praise. Perhaps
an investigation of the soil of Minne
sota will show that the winter has
been as unfavorable for tho develop
ment of grasshoppers as it has been
in Kansas. In that case, the Minne
sotiaus can substitute praise for
prayer and feasting for fasting, and
celebrate the destruction of the
enemy, as Moses and Miriam did the
overthrow of Pharaoh and his hosts,
with anew song.
